REVIEWED: DOUG WILLMORE, CITY MANAGER P14'
RECOMMENDATION
1. Receive public testimony related to the proposed extension for 10 years for the
Storm Drain User Fee; and,
2. Direct Staff to conduct a mail -ballot election of affected property owners; or,
3. Alternatively, discuss and take some other action related to this item.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City's Storm Drain User Fee (Fee) was established in 2005, and is paid by 12,306 of
property owners (or approximately 80% of all property owners in the City). In 2007, the
City's voters imposed a 10 -year sunset on the Fee, and FY15-16 is the last year of
collection. The City collects approximately $1.3 million annually from the Fee with a
median rate of $96.85 per parcel, which is restricted to expenditures for the storm drain
system. Municipal Code Chapter 3.44 Storm Drain User Fee (Attachment A) outlines the
collection and use of the Fee and, based upon the Engineer's Report from Harris and
Associates (Attachment B), the assumptions, methodology, and structure to assess and
collect it are still valid and compliant with law. It is recommended the City consider
conducting a mail -ballot election of property owners to determine whether the Fee should
be extended for another 10 years. There are no other proposed changes to the Fee. The

City Council may also consider discontinuing the Fee or request staff to investigate other
methods to fund stormwater work.
BACKGROUND
Accomplishments and Expenditures to Date
Public Works has designed and constructed many stormwater projects in the last 10
years, which are described in detail in Attachment C. In addition, catch basin inserts to
filter loose debris from entering the system and polluting the runoff that ultimately
discharges into Santa Monica Bay have been traditionally installed utilizing the Fee.
Below is a summary of the expenditures and revenues through FY15-16. See Attachment
C for a detailed accounting of all revenues and expenditures from FY 2005 through 2016.
At the end of FY15-16 (June 30, 2016) the total program expenses are expected to total
$42.1 million.
Spent through FY13-14 $34,245,934
Spent FY14-15 3,394,327
Budget FY15-16 (includes carryovers from FY14-15) 4,457,021
Total Program Expenses $42,097,282
Through FY15-16, total program resources are expected to total $44.4 million.

As illustrated above, the program's ending fund balance at June 30, 2016 is estimated to
be $2,268,704 of excess General Fund transfers.
DISCUSSION
Proposed New Stormwater Protects 2016-2027
The estimated cost of flood protection and rehabilitation projects over the next 10 years
is $39,507,000 as outlined in the summary table below, which includes the
recommendations from the 2015 Master Plan of Drainage to correct hydrologic and
hydraulic deficiencies in the City's storm drain system; the relining of over 18,000 linear
feet of culvert; and work in local canyons.

Estimated Total Costs Excluding Stormwater Quality
$39,507,000
The estimated cost shown above, when spread over a 10 -year program, results in a
spending plan of about $4 million annually (excluding ongoing maintenance).
There is an additional estimated need of $48,500,000 of stormwater quality work
expected to be needed in the next 10 years (see Attachment D) that includes catch basin
screens. The City's participation in improving stormwater quality is mandated by State
and Federal regulation, and a detailed summary of the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) regulations and legal issues involved in compliance and non-compliance
are included in Attachments E and F. It is possible that a regional solution will be created
in the future to cover some or much of the new MS4 requirements.
Citywide Capital Improvements 2016-2021 (Non-Stormwater)
The 2015 capital improvement program for all non-stormwater related improvements to
public buildings, trails, streets, the Portuguese Bend landslide area, and sanitary sewer
system work totals $63,428,807. Funded projects total over the next 5 years $43,168,307
and unfunded projects over the next 5 years total $20,260,500. A summary of these
projects is included with Attachment D.
A long-term resolution of the land movement in the Portuguese Bend area has not been
factored into the capital improvement program. The FY15-16 budget includes an
allocation of $75,000 to develop a strategic plan to articulate the City's short -and long-
term goals related to groundwater pumping, public safety, emergency response, and
roadway maintenance/replacement.
City Council Advisory Committee Review
The background information contained in this report was presented to the Storm Drain
Oversight Committee on October 29, 2015, the Finance Advisory Committee (FAC) on
November 9, 2015, and the Infrastructure Management Advisory Committee (IMAC) on
December 10, 2015, January 14, 2016 and January 28, 2016. To summarize, the
Oversight Committee recognized the scope of the City's storm drain needs but two
members were opposed or undecided about extending the Fee; the FAC recommended
setting tonight's public hearing; and the IMAC, which meets January 28, 2016 will submit
comments as late correspondence. The details of their advisory input to the City Council
is included in Attachment G.

Process to Extend the Fee
The required proceedings for an extension of the Fee are very similar to the proceedings
undertaken by the City in 2005 to establish the Fee. An election is required and the City
Council has the option of holding a registered -voter election or conducting a mailed -ballot
election of the affected property owners. The extension of the Fee must be approved by
a two-thirds vote if the election is by the registered voters, and by a majority vote if the
election is by the property owners. Conducting a property owner mailed -ballot election,
as was done in connection with the approval of the existing Fee, is consistent with past
practice because the property owners pay the Fee.
The process to extend the Fee via a mail -ballot election in Spring 2016 can be
summarized as follows.
• City Council considers directing Staff to conduct a mail -ballot election — tonight's
agenda item.
• Mail Notices of Public Hearing — December 2015 (already done).
• Conduct Public Hearing — February 2016.
• If the City Council does direct Staff to conduct the mail -ballot election, the ballot
period would be February through March 2016.
• The ballots are received and City Council adopts the results of the election in April
2016; if the results are favorable, the City Council would consider amending the
ordinance to extend the Fee.
Summary of Transient Occunancv Tax Revenue
Because there has been extensive discussion about the City's TOT and its relation to
the storm drain financial requirements of the City, we thought it would be important to
include some basic information about the City's TOT. The City's Transient Occupancy
Tax (TOT) revenue transferred to the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Fund
averages approximately $5 million annually. The adopted TOT rate is 10%, which is
paid by each visitor staying at resorts and hotels in the City. Typically, a 1 % increase in
the rate results in a gross increase in TOT revenue of approximately $500,000.
Therefore, a 2% increase is approximately $1,000,000, a 3% increase is approximately
$1,500,000 and a 4% increase is approximately $2,000,000.
The City has accumulated reserves, which include about $15.2 million in the General
Fund and $13.3 million in the CIP Fund at June 30, 2015 (unaudited).
CONCLUSION
The accomplishments of the first ten years of the program and the anticipated flood
protection and culvert rehabilitation need for the next ten years is the basis of the
recommendation to extend the Fee for another ten years. However, as described below,
the City Council may consider alternative actions or programs to fund these programs in
the future.

3.44.010 Purpose.
3.44.020 Fee levied.
3.44.030 Method of collection of fee.

3.44.010 Purpose.
This chapter establishes an annual storm drain user fee for all parcels of real property in the
city that drain into city -maintained storm drain infrastructure, including pipes, inlets, outlets and
natural drainage courses (the city's storm drain system).
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.020 Fee levied.
A. Commencing with fiscal year 2006-2007, an annual storm drain user fee is levied upon each
parcel of real property in the city that drains into the city's storm drain system. The amount of
use of the city's storm drain system attributed to each parcel is measured by the amount of
storm runoff contributed by the parcel to the city's storm drain system. The amount of
contributed storm runoff is directly proportional to the amount of impervious area (impervious
percentage) on the parcel (such as buildings and concrete), with greater impervious area
equal to greater storm runoff generated. The amount of the storm drain user fee shall be
computed annually for each identified parcel as follows:
1. (Parcel Area) x (Impervious Percentage) = Drainage units
2• (Drainage Units) _ (0.118) = Equivalent residential units (ERUs)
3• (ERUs) x (the annual rate per ERU) = the annual storm drain user fee.
The storm drain user fee will not be deemed to be increased in the event the actual payment
from a person in any given year is higher due to an increase in the amount of the impervious area
of the subject parcel caused by new development.
B. Table 1 shows the estimated percentage of impervious area (impervious percentage)
assigned to single-family residential (SFR) parcels of various size ranges.

The actual impervious percentage is used for each parcel.
The impervious percentages assigned to condominiums and non -SFR properties, which
include multifamily residential, institutional (such as churches and private schools) and government-
owned properties, are based on the actual impervious area of each such parcel.
C. The parcel areas for condominiums are calculated by dividing the total area of the
condominium complex (which includes the common area) by the number of condominium
units, and the total imperviousness of the entire complex is attributed to each individual
condominium parcel in the complex. (This divides the runoff of the entire complex to each of
the individual units.) Because the condominium common areas are taken into consideration
in this manner, they are exempt from the fee.
D. Vacant, unimproved parcels are still in their natural states and do not contribute any
additional runoff to burden the city's storm drain system. Therefore, the storm drain user fee
is not applicable to these parcels.
E. Eighty-six dollars is the maximum annual storm drain user fee rate per ERU for fiscal year
2006-2007.
F. Such maximum annual rate per ERU shall be increased annually commencing with fiscal
year 2007-2008, by an amount equal to the change in the Consumer Price Index for all
Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles, Riverside and Orange County areas (the "CPI"),
including all items as published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as of March 1 of each
year, not to exceed a maximum increase of two percent per year.
G. Notwithstanding Section 9217 of the California Elections Code, without a vote of the property
owners, in any year the city council may do any and all of the following: (i) repeal this
Chapter 3.44; (ii) reduce the rate per ERU for the storm drain user fee below the maximum
rate; or (iii) increase the rate per ERU for the storm drain user fee up to or below the
maximum rate if it has been previously set below such rate. In no event shall the city council
increase the storm drain user rate per ERU in excess of the maximum rate without approval
by a majority vote of the property owners subject to the storm drain user fee.
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.030 Method of collection of fee.
Commencing with fiscal year 2006-2007, for each year, the storm drain user fee is collected,
the storm drain user fee shall be collected on the county of Los Angeles tax roll in the same
manner, by the same persons, and at the same time as, together with and not separately from, the
general taxes of the city; provided, however, in any year the city council may, by resolution, provide
for an alternative procedure for collection of the storm drain user fee. For any fiscal year in which

the storm drain user fee is authorized but not collected on the tax roll, the city may collect all or a
portion of the storm drain user fee for such year on the tax roll in the following fiscal year or years.
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.040 Annual review of fee.
Each fiscal year, commencing with fiscal year 2007-2008, the city council shall, following a
public hearing, determine whether to collect the storm drain user fee for that year, and if so, the rate
per ERU for that year. In making its determinations, the city council shall take into account the
current and projected revenues of the city for such fiscal year, including, but not limited to, property
taxes, sales taxes and transient occupancy taxes; the current and projected expenditures of the city
for such fiscal year, including, but not limited to, proposed expenditures in connection with the city's
storm drain system; the balance, if any, in the water quality and flood protection program enterprise
fund; and the current and projected general fund reserves. In no event shall the annual rate per
ERU be set in excess of the maximum rate without approval by a majority vote of the property
owners subject to the storm drain user fee.
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.050 Appeals process for property owners.
If a property owner disagrees with the calculation of his or her storm drain user fee, based on
the parcel area and/or impervious percentage assigned to the property, then the property owner
may appeal the calculation as follows:
A. The property owner must provide written documentation explaining the reason why
the storm drain user fee should be changed. This documentation must include:
1 The name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address, if available,
of the property owner;
2• The Assessor's Parcel Number (APN) of the property in question;
3. To -scale drawings of the property in question and the impervious areas located
on it with accompanying calculations. The to -scale drawings shall include the
square footage and labels for each impervious area (i.e., house, garage,
driveway, patio, tool shed, carport, etc.).
B. If additional documentation is required or insufficient documentation was submitted, a
representative of the public works department or his or her designee (staff) will notify
the property owner in writing within two weeks of receipt of the appeal.
C. Once the staff has determined that sufficient documentation has been submitted, the
staff will perform the initial review. The staff will notify the property owner in writing
within four weeks from the time sufficient documentation was submitted as to whether
or not the fee amount will be changed.
If the determination is to change the fee amount, then the new fee amount will
be documented within the city's fee database.
2• If the determination is that the fee should not be changed, the property owner
can appeal the staffs decision to the director of public works (director). The
appeal must be made in writing and returned no later than four weeks from the
date of mailing of the staffs initial review decision. The director will notify the
property owner in writing within four weeks from the date of receipt of the
appeal as to whether or not the fee amount will be changed.

3. If the director's determination is that the fee should not be changed, the
property owner can appeal this decision to the city council. The appeal must be
made in writing and returned no later than four weeks from the date of mailing
of the director's appeal decision. The city clerk shall fix a time and place for
hearing the appeal and shall give notice in writing to the appellant in the
manner prescribed in Section 3.16.090 of this title for service of notice of
hearing. The city council's determination on the appeal shall be final.
Appeals will be accepted annually up until June 30 for inclusion on the
following fiscal year's property tax roll submittal. However, if an appeal is granted by
the staff, the director or the city council that does not permit inclusion for the following
fiscal year's property tax roll submittal, a reimbursement will be provided to the
property owner by the city. Any action brought against the city pursuant to this section
shall be subject to the provisions of Government Code Sections 945.6 and 946.
Compliance with these provisions shall be a prerequisite to a suit thereon.
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.060 Deposit of fee revenues.
Upon receipt of moneys representing storm drain user fees, the city treasurer shall deposit
the moneys in the city treasury to the credit of the water quality and flood protection program
enterprise fund and the moneys shall only be expended for facilities and services furnished by the
city in connection with its storm drain system.
(Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.070 Duration.
Unless repealed previously by the city council pursuant to Section 3.44.020(G)(i), the storm
drain user fee imposed by this chapter shall expire on June 30, 2016, and shall not be levied by the
city during any subsequent fiscal year.
(Ord. 467 § 1, 2007: Ord. 418 § 2 (part), 2005)
3.44.080 Storm drain user fee oversight committee.
A. An oversight committee ("committee") is created and established. The committee shall hold
at least one public hearing and issue a report, on at least an annual basis, to inform city
residents and the city council regarding how storm drain user fee revenues are being spent
and to make recommendations to the city council regarding future expenditures of the storm
drain user fee revenues. In addition, the oversight committee shall make a recommendation
to the city council regarding whether to collect the storm drain user fee for the upcoming
fiscal year, and, if so, the rate per ERU for that fiscal year. In making its recommendation to
the city council, the oversight committee shall consider the current and projected revenues of
the city for the upcoming fiscal year, including but not limited to, property taxes, sales taxes
and transient occupancy taxes; the current and projected expenditures of the city for the
fiscal year, including, but not limited to, proposed expenditures in connection with the city's
storm drain system; the balance, if any, in the water quality and flood protection program
enterprise fund, and the current and projected general fund reserves. The oversight
committee shall forward its report and recommendations to the city council prior to the
annual public hearing on the storm drain user fee that will be conducted by the city council.

RECOMMENDATION
1. Receive and file a summary of the 2015 Master Plan of Drainage (on the City's
website since October 1, 2015), and the Draft Preliminary Report for the Water
Quality and Flood Protection Program Storm Drain User Fee, 2016 Renewal
(attachment A).
2. Schedule a public hearing for January 19, 2016; to consider whether the City
should conduct a mail -ballot election of affected property owners, for a 10 -year
extension of the storm drain user fee with the same fee structure and methodology.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City's Storm Drain User Fee (Fee) was established in 2005, and is paid by about
80% of property owners. In 2007, the City's voters imposed a 10 -year sunset on the Fee,
and FY15-16 is the last year of collection. The City collects about $1.3 million annually
from the Fee, which is restricted to the storm drain system. Staff is recommending the
City conduct a mail -ballot election of property owners to determine whether the Fee
should be extended for another 10 years. After reviewing the Rate Engineer's Report
indicating the Fee assumptions, methodology and structure are still valid and compliant
with law, Staff proposes no changes to the structure of the Fee.

Page 2 of 6
The information in this report was presented to the Storm Drain Oversight Committee on
October 29th, the Finance Advisory Committee on November 9th, and the Infrastructure
Management Advisory Committee on November 12th
Storm Drain Oversight Committee
A straw vote indicated that 3 members supported Staff's recommendation to move
forward with a mail -ballot election (Kim, Lyon and Sala), 1 member opposed at this time
(Rodich), and 1 member was undecided (Johnson). All members appeared to recognize
the scope of the City's storm drain needs. Members in support of a mail -ballot election
noted the quantified storm drain need, a desire to balance the City's available resources
with other infrastructure needs, and the range of potential expenditures for water quality
compliance. Noting the City's fund balances, Member Rodich opined the City has
accumulated enough General Fund money for the first 4-5 years of the program; and
depending on its financial condition at the end of that period, the City could consider
asking the voters for another user fee. Member Johnson was in favor of a dedicated
revenue source for storm drains; but unsure if the user fee is the most appropriate choice.
Member Johnson indicated that storm drains will compete with other demands for the
City's limited resources (e.g. MS4 permit compliance, landslide management, other
infrastructure); but noted the other demands have not been fully quantified.
Finance Advisory Committee (FAC)
The FAC provided excellent feedback regarding presentation of information to the public,
and unanimously approved the following statement prepared by the Committee.
"Considering the potential costs of storm drain needs, absent a dedicated revenue source,
the ability to continue to fund the City's ongoing infrastructure needs would be in jeopardy.
The FAC recommends the City Council set the public hearing for February 2016. "
The FAC discussed risk associated with the storm drain program, noting the
consequences of a failed storm drain may be much more significant than the
consequences of a failed roadway. The FAC considered whether the City should bear
the potential risk of storm drain failure without having asked the voters.
Infrastructure Management Advisory Committee (IMAC)
Due to the timing of the IMAC meeting and City Council agenda distribution, a summary
of the IMAC discussion and any recommendations will be provided to the City Council as
late correspondence.

Master Plan of Drainage & Condition Assessment
On October 1, 2013 the City Council awarded a contract to RBF Consulting (now Michael
Baker International) to develop a Master Plan of Drainage for the storm water drainage
system in the City. This effort involved desk top and field studies to inventory the city's
storm drain system, develop a GIS layer based on all known data, and model the system
under prescribed rainfall events to determine where capacity deficiencies in the system
may be present. The deficient areas are further studied to develop a conceptual level
"project" that would correct the deficiency. The costs for these conceptual projects are
estimated using rough, industry -wide, unit costs to determine an order of magnitude

estimate to correct all the capacity deficiencies in the City. To conclude the master plan,
a prioritization scheme is developed, based on risk, to determine an implementation
program and schedule for implementation of the conceptual projects.
The 2015 Master Plan of Drainage has been completed and posted to the City's website
(as of October 1, 2015 at htt ://www.r vca, ov/901 /Master-Plan-of-Draina e). The Plan
includes recommendations to correct hydrologic (direction of movement) and hydraulic
(flow capacity) deficiencies in the City's storm drain system. Estimated project costs total
$17,614,000 (in 2015 dollars). This list does not include projects for new infrastructure
(e.g. San Ramon Canyon stabilization was new infrastructure). The $17.6 million
estimate does not include additional work that may be necessary due to the unique
characteristics of the City (e.g. geotechnical studies and utility surveying), nor does it
include storm drain lining.
The 2014-15 closed circuit television condition assessment of the City's entire storm drain
pipeline indicates that 18,352 of pipe is in "urgent" need of lining (average through severe
defects of corrugated metal pipe), at an estimated cost of about $10 million.
Storm drain improvements over the last ten years are considered to be in good condition,
and are not are not a part of these estimated costs.
Proposed New Infrastructure — Unfunded
The 2015 Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan identified storm drain projects for new
infrastructure, but did not identify funding. These projects were identified by Staff based
on the age of the existing infrastructure, landslide area and requirements relating to the
Municipal Storm Sewer System National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (MS4
Permit). Estimates of minimum and maximum project costs are listed below.

The $40.3 million estimated cost spread over a 10 -year program results in a spending
plan of about $4 million annually (excluding ongoing maintenance). The City's transient
occupancy tax revenue transferred to the Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) Fund is
about $5 million annually. The City has accumulated reserves, which include about $15.2
million in the General Fund and $13.3 million in the CIP Fund at June 30, 2015
(unaudited). However, the City has other demands on its resources.
The City must comply with new federal and state mandates for clean storm -water runoff.
Information presented in May 2015 to the Regional Water Quality Control Board indicates
that the City may be responsible for $36 million to $58.5 million of projects to achieve
storm water quality compliance. Detailed information is posted on the City's website.
The City must balance the use of its resources. In addition to unfunded storm drain
improvements, there are many other recommended infrastructure projects identified in
the 2015 Capital Improvement Plan with estimated costs ranging from a total of $20
million to $27 million that remain unfunded. Many of these projects address safety and
access issues; and include improvements in the public right-of-way, City park sites, and
City -owned buildings. Detailed information is posted on the City's website, and is an
appendix of the City's FY15-16 Budget Document.
As we all know, there is also an active landslide in the City; and the impacts of that
landslide must be managed. The City Council has funded a series of new dewatering
wells, and has planned for relocation of the roadway back into the City's right-of-way,-
however,
ight-of-way;however, more infrastructure projects may be needed to protect human safety and
regional access. The FY15-16 budget includes an allocation of $75,000 to develop a
strategic plan to articulate the City's short and long-term goals related to groundwater
pumping, public safety, emergency response, and roadway maintenance/replacement.
If we combine the estimated storm drain needs with other demands for City resources, as
illustrated below, it becomes clear that the City's $5 million revenue stream and
accumulated reserves can pay for some of the City's needs, but not all.

CONCLUSION
The success of the first ten years of the program, along with the information presented
above, is the basis for Staff's recommendation to extend the Fee for another ten years.
Process to Extend the Fee
The required proceedings for an extension of the Fee are very similar to the proceedings
undertaken by the City in 2005 to establish the Fee. An election is required, and the City
Council has the option of holding a registered voter election or conducting a mailed ballot
election of the affected property owners. The extension of the Fee must be approved by
a two-thirds vote if the election is by the registered voters, and by a majority vote if the
election is by the property owners. Staff recommends that the City conduct a property
owner mailed ballot election as was done in connection with the approval of the existing
Fee, because the property owners pay the Fee.
On June 2, 2015, the City Council authorized the Fee Rate Engineer to analyze the Fee
structure and methodology to ensure assumptions are still valid and compliant with
changes in the law over the last ten years. The Rate Engineer's analysis has been
completed, and the attached report indicates that assumptions are still valid and
compliant with the law.
The process to extend the Fee via a mail -ballot election in spring 2016 can be
summarized as follows.
• City Council decision whether to conduct a public hearing in February — tonight's
agenda item.
• Mail Notices of Public Hearing — December 2015.
• Conduct Public Hearing — February 2016.
• Ballot Period — February -March 2016.
City Council adopts results of election; and, if the results are favorable, considers
ordinance to extend the Fee — April 2016.

Storm Drain User Fee Preliminary Report Pace 2
INTRODUCTION
To ensure dedicated funding for the Water Quality and Flood Protection Program, the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes established a user fee in September 2005. Fiscal Year 2015-16 was the final
year of the original fee, however with the additional projects as recommended by the update to the
Master Plan of Drainage it is necessary to consider continuing the fee. The purpose of this report is
to:
• Review the requirements of Article XIIID of the State Constitution (Proposition 218)
relating to requirements for apportioning the costs associated with the storm drain
system.
• Ensure that the fee rate structure established is fair and equitable for the levying of the
costs of the Water Quality and Flood Protection Program.
• Identify changes in impervious factors for residential properties that were previously
capped in the original fee.
• Outline the process to continue the Fee based on Proposition 218.
Proposition 218 Requirements
All fees must comply with the provisions of Article XIIID of the California Constitution (Proposition
218). Section 6.b of Proposition 218 has the following requirements for all "new, extended,
imposed or increased" fees and charges:
1) "Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not exceed the funds required to provide the
property -related service."
2) "Revenues derived from the fee or charge shall not be used for any purpose other than that for
which the fee or charge was imposed."
3) "The amount of a fee or charge imposed upon any parcel or person as an incident of property
ownership shall not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to the parcel."
4) "No fee or charge may be imposed for a service unless that service is actually used by, or
immediately available to, the owner of the property in question. Fees or charges based on
potential or future use of service are not permitted. Standby charges, whether characterized as
charges or assessments, shall be classified as assessments and shall not be imposed without
compliance with [the assessment section of this code]."
5) "No fee or charge may be imposed for general governmental services including, but not limited
to, police, fire, ambulance or library services where the service is available to the public at large
in substantially the same manner as it is to property owners."

Storm Drain User Fee Preliminary Report Page 3
There have been a number of court cases related to property -related fees in the last few years;
however they have all focused on water rates or groundwater charges. The only substantive part of
these cases that related to storm water fees is the requirement that the fees be based on the cost
of service and that they must be proportional. The City's current rate structure complies with this
requirement.
Rate Structure Analysis
Within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes there are many separate watersheds of various terrain and
with inlets, pipes and channels made of various materials and in various conditions. Some of these
watersheds flow directly to the ocean and others flow through other cities or into the
unincorporated county areas.
All parcels draining into City -maintained drainage infrastructure are proposed to be charged the
same user fee rate per ERU for storm drain renewal and maintenance. The Water Quality and Flood
Protection Fee is proposed to be extended for an additional ten years and the storm drain
improvement program that is being funded is anticipated to upgrade the entire City's storm drain
system to a uniform level of maintenance needs in the future.
Parcels within the City that have runoff flowing out of the City without going through any City -
maintained drainage infrastructure are not included in this fee. There are also a number of County -
maintained pipes within the City. If properties drain exclusively to these pipes and the pipe system
does not include any City -maintained infrastructure, then they are not included in the fee.
The current Hydrology Manual and adopted impervious percentages have been reviewed for
consistency with current case law and Proposition 218 requirements. There were not any changes
that would have significant bearing on the current methodology.
Impervious Factor Changes
At the time of the original formation, one of the changes incorporated from the early appeals and
property owner concerns during the balloting timeframe was for the properties larger than 0.75
acres. It was determined those properties would be reviewed for actual imperviousness because
there was a greater potential for a portion of the property to consist of slopes therefore limiting the
amount of buildable area and therefore impervious area. That review resulted in several properties
having a reduced impervious percentage and fee.
Going forward, the properties that were capped in the original SFRS category were reviewed to
confirm their actual impervious percentage and are now included in the SFR6 category which has
been changed to include all SFR properties 0.75 acres and greater.
Approval Process
The Article XIII D of the California Constitution requires that the proposed Fee must go through a
two-step approval process. The first step is a Public Hearing, and the second step is a property
owner election.

Public Hearing
All property owners subject to the proposed Fee will be given the opportunity to protest the Fee at
the Public Hearing scheduled for January 19, 2016. If at the conclusion of the Public Hearing,
written protests against the proposed Fee have been filed (and not withdrawn) by the owners of a
majority of the parcels subject to the Fee, then the process will stop and the Fee will not be
imposed.
A written protest must identify the property and be signed. The City cannot accept electronic
protests, such as email or texting. In order to be counted in determining whether there is a
majority protest, written protests must be filed with the City Clerk prior to the conclusion of the
Public Hearing. Written protests may be delivered to the City Clerk at the Public Hearing or mailed
or delivered to the City Clerk at City Hall at the address shown on the front of this notice. Protests
which are mailed or delivered to City Hall must arrive at City Hall by 3:00 p.m. on January 19, 2016
to be counted. Only one written protest will be counted per parcel.
Property Owner Election
If there is an absence of a majority protest, the City Council may order an election on the proposed
Fee. One ballot will be provided for each parcel subject to the proposed Fee. Ballots will be mailed
to the record owner(s) of the parcels and property owners will be given 45 days to return their
ballot. Property owners will be informed of the date and time tabulation of the ballots will occur
and they will have the opportunity to view the tabulation process. The results will be presented to
the City Council at the next regular Council Meeting following the completion of the tabulation and
the Council may impose the Fee if the Fee is approved by the majority of the returned ballots. If
approved, the fee will be collected on the annual County Property Tax Bills for ten years
commencing with FY 2016-17. The mailed ballot election is expected to occur in spring of 2016.

ANNUAL FEE RATE CALCULATIONS
By definition, all properties that drain into the City's storm drain system use the storm drain system.
The amount of use attributed to each parcel is measurable by the amount of storm runoff
contributed by the property, which is directly proportional to the amount of impervious area on a
parcel (such as buildings and concrete). The more impervious area on a property, the more storm
runoff the property generates. Vacant, unimproved parcels are still in their natural states and do
not contribute any additional runoff to burden the system, therefore these parcels are not charged
a storm drain fee.
Table 2 shows the estimated Impervious Percentages for single-family residential (SFR) properties
of various size ranges. These Impervious Percentages are the estimated percent impervious cover
on a property based on a ten percent data sampling of SFR parcels within the City of Rancho Palos
Verdes when the fee was initially adopted. For the renewal process we reviewed all the appeals
that have been filed since the district was formed. Of the 75 appeals that were received, 65 were
approved. Because the percentages of appeals compared to the total number of parcels for each
land use was small, the only trend identified was for SFRs on larger lots. The lots 0.75 acres and
greater were moved to the SFR6 category and actual impervious area was calculated for each.
Looking at the aerials of the properties where multiple appeals were in the same tract verified the
appealed properties were the anomalies in that tract.
Because of the variations in condominiums and non -SFR properties, which include: multi -family
residential, institutional (such as churches and private schools) and government-owned properties,
these properties are reviewed individually using the GIS and Aerial photography to determine the
actual Impervious cover for each parcel.

The amount each parcel uses the storm drain system is computed by the following formula:
(Parcel Area) x (Impervious Percentage) = Drainage Units
The more Drainage Units a parcel has, the more storm run-off it generates, and the more it uses the
storm drain system.
It is often convenient to relate other land uses to a developed single family home, instead of
working exclusively with Drainage Units. Since 83% of the parcels within the City are designated as

Single Family Residential (SFR) parcels, and the median number of Drainage Units is 0.118 for all SFR
parcels, it makes sense to relate all parcels to this median residential property. Therefore, 0.118
Drainage Units is set equal to one Equivalent Residential Unit (ERU).
Parcels within the City that have runoff flowing out of the City without going through any City -
maintained drainage infrastructure are not included in this fee. There are also a number of County -
maintained pipes within the City. If properties drain exclusively to these pipes and the pipe system
does not include any City -maintained infrastructure, then they are not included in the fee. These
areas, which consist of approximately 3,047 parcels, are excluded from the Storm Drain User Fee.
For the purposes of this report, City -maintained infrastructure includes pipes, inlets, outlets, and
natural drainage courses, and is also referred to as the "City's storm drain system."

The parcel areas for condominiums are calculated by dividing the total area of the condominium
complex (which includes the common area) by the number of condominium units, and the total
imperviousness of the entire complex is attributed to each individual condo parcel in the complex.
(This divides the runoff of the entire complex to each of the individual units.) Because the
condominium common areas are taken into consideration in this manner, they are exempt from the
charge.

The proposed extension of the Fee will provide for the maximum rate to increase automatically on
an annual basis by an amount equal to the annual change in Consumer Price Index for all Urban
Consumers (CPI) for the Los Angeles, Riverside, Orange County Areas including all items as
published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as of March 1 of each year (12 months ended
February), not to exceed a maximum increase of two percent (2%) per year.
The actual rate to be levied each year will be as approved by the City Council at a public hearing,
after they consider an Annual Fee Report outlining the estimated annual costs of the program.
Table 6 provides sample fee calculations for various land uses and parcel sizes based on the
proposed Actual Fee Rate.

13 IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM AND CIP SCHEDULE
13.1 Prioritization Criteria
A priority ranking was developed in conjunction with the City for all proposed facilities. The goal
of the priority ranking system is to determine the projects of greatest importance and determine
which projects should be constructed first when funding becomes available. The three priorities
are summarized below:
Priority 1
o Existing Broken Storm Drains: Existing storm drain systems classified as being in
severe, heavy, or average defect condition per CCTV 2015 and 2012 inspections, or
when calculated flooding depth or velocity will inundate structures or create a threat
to human life.
o Arterial Street: Existing storm drain systems for which the recommended size is 12
inches or more than the existing storm drain size.
o Private Property: Existing storm drain systems in which the upstream collects runoff
water from an existing arterial street with access to main public facilities, and the
recommended size is 12 inches or more than the existing storm drain size.
o Other: Streets for which there is a deficient storm drain, and a street improvement
project is scheduled.
Priority 2
o Existing Broken Storm Drains: Existing storm drain systems classified as
moderate or minor defect condition per CCTV 2015 and 2012 inspection.
o Arterial Street: Existing storm drain systems for which a size increase is
recommended.
o Private Property: Storm drain systems in which the upstream collects runoff water
from an existing arterial street, and a size increase is recommended.
Priority 3
o Local Streets: Existing storm drain systems for which a size increase is
recommended.
Table 13-1 summarizes the priorities assigned to each storm drain segment for which a
recommended improvement was proposed and/or the system was found to be in a defect
condition per the CCTV 2014-2015 and 2012 inspections. Appendix C-1 and C-2 include the
tables completed by the City for the CCTV condition assessment. The priority type column
explains the priority reasoning:
EX = Existing Broken Storm Drains
ART = Arterial Street
PP = Private Property
OTHER
LS = Local Streets

a. Type I: storm drain systems that were classified as deficient systems per this
MPD (capacity deficient).
b. Type II: storm drain systems that have capacity deficiencies and that have
condition deficiencies per the CCTV inspection.
3. Type II projects were scheduled first.

4. Recognized the following project characteristics for risk assessment:
a. Located under an arterial street.
b. Calculated total tributary area to storm drain system.
c. Identified if there was a downstream deficient system.
5. Scheduled the project depending on the risk assessment criteria.
According to the City, collections from a storm drain user fee contribute around $1.3 million
annually. This fee expires in June of 2016. However, for this MPD, it is assumed the fee will be
renewed. Using $1.3 million per year as the fee revenue cap, the years highlighted in red will
require identification of additional funding sources. Table 13-2 summarizes the CIP schedule
cost per year and the priority ranks for storm drain systems to be improved in the given year.
Recommended improvement projects priority 2 and 3 that are located downstream of a priority 1
project were schedule first.

13.3 Future Considerations
Master Plan of Drainage studies are planning -level documents focused on identifying a citywide
storm drainage system to reduce flooding risk. Implementation of any facility identified in this
document as deficient should be supplemented with detailed hydrology and hydraulic
calculations during the final design process. Additional studies that should be performed during
final design include detailed geotechnical investigations, utility surveying, catch basin design,
and utility relocation.
In this MPD, the entire storm drain system located within the City's jurisdiction was analyzed.
The most updated storm drain information was used in conjunction with a coupled hydrology
and hydraulics model in XP-SWMM. The comprehensive model's basis of GIS data, integrated
with the Michael Baker Model Builder, makes the XP-SWMM model a valuable tool for future
design projects. The models are divided by drainage area to facilitate updates. The City would
have to purchase an XP-SWMM license and have staff trained in the use of the program to
maintain the model in house. The model will require knowledge of the County of Los Angeles
hydrology and hydraulic methods to efficiently model future improvements.
One of the main goals of this comprehensive model was to provide the City with a living
document and model that could be revised as significant changes in the storm drain system are
completed. These changes include but are not limited to roadway improvements, tract
developments, and storm drain improvements. Generally, the MPD for any city should be
updated every ten years, and Michael Baker recommends that the City review this MPD in ten
years. However, the approach used in this MPD allows the City to continuously revise the
models, which could result in lower overall costs to produce future master plans. Future
revisions to consider include addition of currently missing or incomplete storm drain
infrastructure data, analysis of current recommended Capital Improvement Projects as they are
design and constructed, other storm drain improvements, updates to rainfall data by the County
of Los Angeles, and changes in County of Los Angeles hydrology and hydraulic methods.

estimated June 30, 2016 fund balances presented during the 2015 budget process
includes the expenditure of these appropriations; and continuing them from one year to
the next has no impact on the estimated fund balances.
Staff is requesting a number of FY14-15 adjustments to ensure budgetary compliance,
and to provide for additional transfers between funds. Staff is also requesting several
adjustments to correct the FY15-16 budget. The net fiscal impact of all requested General
Fund adjustments is an $11,070 increase to the estimated General Fund Reserve at June
30, 2016.
Revised Fund Balance Estimates at June 30, 2016:
General Fund Reserve: $11,111,712 ($375,007 in excess of Policy Threshold)
Equipment Replacement Fund: $ 1,854,767 ($130,885 in excess of Policy Threshold)
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Continuing Appropriations
At the end of each fiscal year, Staff prepares a list of budgeted appropriations
recommended for carryover into the next fiscal year. The list of Proposed Continuing
Appropriations (Attachment A) identifies projects that were included in the FY14-15
budget, but were not completed by June 30, 2015.
The majority of the continuing appropriation requests relate to ongoing Public Works
projects. Many of these projects require a multi-year effort, must wait for approval from
outside agencies, or require extensive planning and/or citizen engagement before
commencing; and have, therefore, been carried over from year to year. Staff added an
informational column to the list, noting the first year each project was appropriated. As
discussed during the 2015 budget process, Public Works Staff recommended a minimal
number of new projects for FY15-16; with the goal of completing many of the projects that
had already been appropriated for FY14-15, or continued from prior years.
There are at least two different ways that funds may legally be committed for capital
projects:
1. Budget the full amount of the project (appropriate it); or
2. "Commit" the project via resolution by June 30th of each year. The "Commitment"
would be reported as part of the CIP fund balance in the annual financial
statements. Once the City is ready to begin the project (e.g. approval/funding from
an outside agency was obtained), then that project may be budgeted from the
"Committed" fund balance.
The City has a long history of appropriating funding to capital projects by budgeting the
funding (method #1 above), and carrying over the unspent appropriation year to year.

FY14-15 FISCAL YEAR-END BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS AND CONTINUING
APPROPRIATIONS
September 15, 2015
Page 3 of 4
With the 2016 budget process, Finance Staff will recommend "committing" funds by
resolution for projects that are not likely to begin during FY16-17 (method #2 above). By
taking this step, during the annual budget process City Council would have the
opportunity to review the committed projects and determine if priorities or funding has
changed. This step should be able to reduce the number of continuing appropriations
each year; and the annually adopted budget will reflect the true annual expenditures for
the City.
Staff presented all budgeted appropriations for FY14-15, including the amounts requested
for carryover, in the FY14-15 column of the 2015 Five -Year Financial Model that was
prepared in conjunction with the FY15-16 budget. Therefore, estimated beginning fund
balances presented with the FY15-16 budget were already reduced by the amount of the
proposed continuing appropriations. Approval of these continuing appropriations will not
change estimated ending fund balances at June 30, 2016.
FYI 4-15 & FYI 5-16 Budget Adjustments
Chapter 3.32 of Title 3 of the Rancho Palos Verdes Municipal Code sets forth guidelines
related to the City's budget administration. Section 3.32.070 of the Code requires that all
expenditures in excess of a program/function's budgeted allocation must be approved by
supplemental appropriation by the City Council.
A list of Proposed Budget Adjustments (Attachment B) has been prepared, and includes
a brief description of each item. The impact to the General Fund is summarized below.
FY14-15 Revenue Increase $180,000
FY14-15 Net Expenditure Increase 99,550
FY15-16 Net Expenditure Increase 69,380
Net Increase of General Fund Reserve $ 11;070
This report also includes proposed adjustments for activity related to the Utility User Tax
(UUT) Claim Account, as summarized below.
Claim Account Balance at June 30, 2014 $593,301
Additional Telecommunications UUT collected during FY14-15 120,167
FY14-15 Disbursements from Claim Account (190,467)
Current Claim Account Balance $523,001
Staff requests the following transfers between funds, with no net fiscal impact:
1. Close the Building Replacement Fund and transfer the balance to the CIP
Reserve, based upon City Council direction during the 2015 budget process;
2. Increase the budgeted transfer of Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) to the CIP
Reserve, based upon actual FY14-15 TOT revenue; and

3. Increase the budgeted transfer of Proposition C to the CIP Fund for the PVDE
arterial rehabilitation project, based upon amounts approved by Metro.
Finally, there are $20,000 of requests to increase Equipment Replacement Fund
appropriations. Staff expects that the Equipment Replacement Fund will have about
$150,000 of FY14-15 expenditure savings, which is more than sufficient to provide for the
$20,000 of requests.

As part of the 2015 budget process, the RPVty program went
through numerous revisions to provide additional staff hours
for increased service, as well as changes in hourly rates. As a
result of the revisions, an error was made, and the final
adopted FY15-16 budget for professional services was
insufficient. In addition, the budget anticipated continuation
of part-time employee staffing; which has since been shifted to
consulting services. The net appropriation increase due to
these corrections is $69,380. The FY15-16 revised program
budget will be $213,700 ($144,320 adopted + $69,380
requested). As a comparison, total FY14-15 actual program

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The CIP is a guide for the efficient and effective provision of resources for improving
and maintaining public infrastructure and facilities. The CIP is segregated into both
Funded and Unfunded projects and includes detailed "project sheets" that provide a
project description, project type (e.g. Roadway Infrastructure), location, department
responsible, estimates of cost, and the justification (e.g. safety, City Council goal,
outside funding available). The CIP document does not include any projects with
estimated costs below the infrastructure capitalization threshold of $100,000.
Although the CIP document presents project funding for five years, the City Council
approves CIP projects for the upcoming fiscal year only. This gives the City Council the
ability to shift priorities when needed, while at the same time identify future projects and
potential funding mechanisms.
Projects are generally added to the "Funded" list as available funding sources are
identified. Projects are usually funded first from restricted funds, to be conservative in
allocating General Fund monies only when necessary. Staff recommends planning for
use of the CIP Reserve (funded with General Fund money equivalent to transient
occupancy tax revenue and prior year favorable General Fund expenditure variance in
accordance with City Council Policy No. 41 — Reserve Policies).

On May 26, 2015, the Planning Commission reviewed the CIP Document and adopted
P.C. Resolution 2015-10, finding it to be consistent with the General Plan.
Based on City Council direction on June 2, 2016, the following changes have been
made to the 2015 CIP:
• Civic Center Tennis Court and Skate Plaza projects were combined and moved
to the Unfunded list;
• ADA Improvement Project at Del Cerro and Burma Road was removed from the
CIP;
• Fiber Optic Cabling at Abalone Cove Sewer Lift Stations, Abalone Shoreline
Park, and Ladera Linda Community Center was removed from the CIP; and
• Funding for the Hawthorne Boulevard Corridor Beautification Study was moved
from year 5 to year 1
The CIP list of "funded" projects (totaling $34.9 million) has been integrated into the
2015 Five -Year Financial Model.
Projects listed in Year 1 of the CIP (table below), totaling $3.2 million have been
included in the proposed FY15-16 budget, which is also on the June 16, 2015 agenda
for City Council consideration.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Programming capital facilities and improvements over time can promote better use of
the City's limited financial resources, reduce costs and assist in the coordination of
public and private development. Based on guidelines of the framework and those set
forth by the City Council, Staff developed an inventory of capital projects. This inventory
was compiled through a comprehensive review of existing reports, infrastructure plans,
community input and the City Council's direction, goals and priorities. Some of these
plans include the following: the Pavement Management System, Vision Plan, Sanitary
Sewer Master Plan, Public Use Master Plan, Trails Network Plan, Storm Drain Master
Plan and the General Plan.
Staff evaluated every project quantified during the establishment and update of the CIP
and established Criteria justifications that are reflected on each project sheet. These
justification categories include: safety, support of essential City services, support of
Council plan goals, economy and efficiency, outside funding, and community
quality/sustainability. The Criteria justifications and the availability of restricted (non -
General Fund) monies, are utilized to establish the priority level of CIP projects. Staff
has included columns on the Funded and Unfunded lists (pages 11 & 68 of the
document) to indicate whether the project supports public safety or another City Council
priority.
Expected Additions to Future CIP Documents
Staff anticipates there will be future factors in 2015 and 2016 that will drive additional
projects to the CIP, namely:
1. Completion of the Storm Drain Master Plan is expected in 2015,
2. Draft Parks Master Plan will be presented to the City Council on June 30, 2015;
and
3. Update of the City's General Plan is expected to be finalized in FY15-16.

INTRODUCTION
A Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a guide toward the efficient and effective provision of public
infrastructure and facilities. Programming capital facilities and improvements over time can
promote better use of the City's limited financial resources, reduce costs, and assist in the
coordination of public and private development. In addition, the planning process is valuable as a
means of coordinating and taking advantage of joint planning and development of facilities and
infrastructure where possible. Careful management of these assets keeps the City poised for
flexible and responsive strategic planning that allows the City to proactively prepare the groundwork
for capital projects so that when funding opportunities arise, a plan is ready to be implemented. By
looking beyond year-to-year budgeting and projecting what, where, when and how capital
investments should be made, capital planning enables public organizations to maintain an effective
level of service for the present and future population.
THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN (CIP)
The result of this continuing planning process is the CIP, which is the City's mid-term plan for
infrastructure projects. The CIP addresses the City's needs relating to the acquisition, expansion,
and rehabilitation of facilities and infrastructure. The CIP serves as a planning instrument, in
conjunction with the City's General Plan and the City Council's Goals, to identify needed capital
projects and coordinate the financing and timing of improvements in a way that maximizes the
return to the public. It provides a planned systematic approach to utilizing the City's limited financial
resources in the most responsive and efficient manner to meet its service and infrastructure needs.
It serves as the "blueprint" for the future of the community and is a management and planning tool,
rather than a binding document.
The underlying strategy of the CIP is to plan for necessary land acquisition, construction and
maintenance of public facilities necessary for the safe and efficient provision of public services in
accordance with City policies and objectives adopted in the City's General Plan. A critical element
of a balanced CIP is the provision of funds to both preserve or enhance existing facilities and
provide new assets to respond to changing needs and community growth. While the program
serves as a mid-term plan, it is reviewed and revised annually in conjunction with the budget.
Priorities may be changed due to funding opportunities or circumstances that propel a project to a
higher level of importance. Along the way, projects may be revised for significant cost variances.
The CIP is primarily a document that assists in addressing the City's mid-term needs. As such, the
projects and their scopes are subject to change from year-to-year as the needs of the community
become more defined and projects move closer to final implementation. The adoption of the CIP
is neither a commitment to a particular project nor a limitation to a particular cost. As a basic tool
for scheduling anticipated capital projects, it is also a key element in controlling future capital
financing. For this reason, the CIP includes some "unfunded" projects in which needs have been
identified and quantified, but specific solutions and funding sources have not been determined.
When adopted, the CIP provides the framework for the City's management team and the City
Council with respect to investment planning, project planning, and the managing of any City debt.
This document is independent of the City Council's goals and is intended to serve as a mid-term
planning document.
An integrated infrastructure management plan (IMP) is scheduled to be developed in FY15-16 to
determine the impact of different funding strategies/scenarios and prioritization on project delivery
over the course of multiple planning decades. The IMP will consider the maintenance level required
and the useful life for each public asset and will focus particularly on the community's current and
future needs (including public safety and regulatory mandates) and community expectations.
The City is currently engaged in updating the General Plan, the 1989 Parks Master Plan and the
2004 Storm Drainage Master Plan, which are expected to be adopted in FY15-16. These three
master plans will heavily influence the scheduling of projects during the CIP process.

r_11ir_T41:IT,14�III aI]
A City Council -appointed Infrastructure Management Advisory Committee (IMAC) was formed in
FY14-15 to assist in the implementation of the IMP and the use of the infrastructure planning tool.
THE CIP PROCESS
The capital improvement plan and budget is the result of an ongoing infrastructure planning
process. Infrastructure planning decisions must be made with regard to both existing and new
facilities and equipment. For existing facilities, the planning process addresses appropriate capital
renewal strategies and repair -versus -replacement of facilities. New service demands are also
considered, since they often affect capital facility requirements. Planning for the five-year CIP
period and subsequent years, includes linking the General Plan to the capital plan requirements,
conducting needs assessments and allowing for flexibility to take advantage of opportunities for
capital investment. The FY15-16 through FY19-20 CIP is developed through input from
professional staff, citizens of Rancho Palos Verdes, and elected or appointed City officials.
CIP REVIEW TEAM
A CIP Review Team is responsible for annually reviewing capital project requests and providing
recommendations to the City Manager. This team is comprised of staff from the Office of the City
Manager, Finance, Public Works, Community Development, and Recreation and Parks
Departments, and the City Attorney. This team conducts an in-depth analysis of the impact of the
CIP on present and future cash flows and financial obligations, as well as the City's ability to
finance, process, design, and ultimately maintain projects. The Team will also analyze the fiscal
impact for each individual project; including future maintenance and replacement costs, associated
monetary benefits (e.g. future maintenance savings), as well as any applicable future revenue
opportunities. The Team meets periodically throughout the year to evaluate the progress of
projects, and examine future needs of the City.
The overall goal of the CIP Review Team is to develop CIP recommendations that:
■ Preserve the past by investing in the continued upgrade of City assets and infrastructure;
■ Protect the present with improvements to City facilities and infrastructure; and
■ Plan for the future.
Projects are identified by staff, professional consultants, residents and/or elected officials. There
are typically more proposals than can be funded in the five-year CIP period, so the team conducts
an internal project ranking process. The criteria used in this internal ranking includes, but is not
limited to, safety, support of essential City services, support of City Council's goals, economy and
efficiency, outside funding committed (or eligible for), and community quality/sustainability.
Projects are prioritized based on the criteria outlined in this plan in the following section. If a project
receives a lower ranking, it just means that other projects in that period of time are more critical for
the City to address. While ratings are important in determining recommended projects, the realities
of the City's financial situation are critical to all decisions.
CIP CRITERIA
Safety: Enhance or improve the overall safety of the City and delivery of services. Protect the
health and welfare of residents.
Supports Essential City Services: Maintenance and development of existing or new facilities and
infrastructure which allows the City to deliver essential services to residents of Rancho Palos
Verdes.
Supports City Council Goals: Supports the goals established annually by the City Council. Meets
citywide long-term goals and is in compliance with the City's General Plan.
Economy and Efficiency: Maintain and enhance the economy and efficiency of providing services
in Rancho Palos Verdes. This criterion would include projects which improve business processes
and overall efficiency while also evaluating environmental impacts.

Outside Funding Committed or Eligible: Support a project for which outside funding has been
committed to or may be obtained through restricted revenue sources.
Community Quality/Sustainability: Maintain and enhance the infrastructure and services which
support our residential and business community. This criterion would include projects which
preserve and enhance the overall quality of life in Rancho Palos Verdes and projects which ensure
economic viability to support the community.
THE CIP CALENDAR
October -December Departments prepare CIP requests
January CIP Review Team reviews requests
February -May Recommendations developed to be included in the Five -Year
Model and Draft Budget
May -June Planning Commission Review
May -June Recommendations presented to the City Council for approval
Additional forms and methods of public outreach will be conducted as directed by the City
Council.
PROJECT LISTS
The CIP includes a comprehensive listing of all projects contained in the Five -Year Plan and also
projects beyond the five-year period. Detailed project sheets are contained in the Plan for all
projects included in the CIP. Another list of unfunded projects is also contained in the Plan to
highlight quantified projects beyond the five-year period. Projects which are included in the CIP
were evaluated based on the criteria approved by the City Council and are in compliance with the
goals set forth in the City's General Plan. Application of these criteria ensures that each project
recommended for Council consideration does indeed support the policy objectives of the City's
long-term planning documents and identifies a basis for scheduling and allocation of resources.
Cost estimates have been developed for each project based on preliminary project descriptions,
and include all estimated costs for land acquisition, permits and inspections, project management
and project engineering, consultant design work, construction, utilities, information technology
infrastructure and other associated project costs. Estimates are based on today's dollars.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT POLICIES
The Finance Department, in cooperation with all other City Departments and the City Attorney,
shall produce a working document designed to identify capital needs annually in conjunction with
the budget process. This Five -Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is submitted to the City Council
to utilize in reviewing and prioritizing capital projects. After adoption by the City Council during the
budget process, the CIP becomes the City's plan for capital improvements for the next five years,
with annual adjustments as needed.
Type of Project
Definitions
Capital asset: An asset with a cost in excess of $5,000 and an expected useful life of more than
one year, such as automobiles, equipment, and furniture. These items will continue to be included
in the operating budget. Items such as automobiles, minor equipment, and furniture will continue
5
•
D-67
r_11ir_T41:IT,14�kaC
to be accounted for and funded using the Equipment Replacement Fund and are not included in
the capital improvement plan.
Capital project: A project expected to have a useful life greater than ten years and an estimated
cost of $100,000 or more. Capital projects include the construction, acquisition, or major renovation
of buildings, roadways, utility systems, or other structures, purchase of land, and major landscaping
projects.
Projects meeting the above definition will be included in the CIP document in addition to the City's
budget document. The information will be tied to the capital budget and totals for each project in
the CIP will be included in the capital budget.
Selecting the Projects for the CIP
The comprehensive capital project planning process has the following essential components:
■ The General Plan (Long-term Plan - 10 Years)
■ The Capital Improvement Plan (Mid-term Plan - 5 Years)
■ The Capital Budget (Short-term Plan - 1 Year)
■ City Council Goals (Long-term and Short-term evaluated each year)
All projects selected for the CIP should be consistent with the goals identified by the City Council
or as outlined in the City's General Plan. The project selection process strives to achieve a
balanced plan for the community to include all necessary and high priority projects, while also
enhancing City services and facilities.
Operating Budget Impact Identified in the CIP
The operating impact of proposed capital projects, including personnel, operating expenditures,
capital outlay, and debt service, as applicable, will be identified in the CIP document and considered
in preparing the annual operating budget and Five -Year Financial Model.
Moving Projects from the CIP to the Capital Budget
All projects approved in the annual capital budget are appropriated at the estimated cost to
complete the project. At the end of each fiscal year, the remaining appropriation for uncompleted
portions of the project will be carried forward to subsequent fiscal years.
Staff will identify the estimated costs, potential funding sources, operating impact, and project
schedule for each capital project proposal before it is submitted to the City Council.
Staff will coordinate development of the capital improvement budget with the development of the
operating budget. All costs for internal professional services needed to implement the CIP will be
included in the capital budget as part of the budget document for the years the CIP is to be
implemented.
Cost tracking for components of the capital improvement program will be updated semi-annually to
ensure project completion against budget and established time lines.
Funding of the CIP Reserve Fund
City Council Policy No. 41 regarding the City's Reserves provides for a minimum CIP Reserve level
of $3,000,000 for emergency projects, the transfer of the total annual Transient Occupancy Tax
(TOT) revenue into the CIP Reserve, and the transfer of any prior year General Fund favorable
expenditure variance to the CIP Reserve. The TOT revenue for FY15-16 is estimated to be about
$5.0 million.
Definition of Capital Budget Year
A capital budget year runs concurrent to the operating budget fiscal year beginning July 1St and
ending June 301h

Types of Financing
The nature and cost of the project generally determines the financing options as do projected
revenue. The following financing instruments could be used in the following preferred order:
■ Outside funding that does not require repayment, including grants, federal, state and
county restricted funding (i.e. transportation funding), and donations;
■ Developer Fees;
■ City restricted revenue imposed by voters (i.e. environmental excise tax, storm drain user
fee);
■ Accumulated Fund Balances in Restricted Funds;
■ General Fund;
■ Debt Secured by a Restricted Revenue Source; and
■ General Obligation Debt.
Application of Restricted Funding Sources
It is the City's policy to apply restricted funding sources after a project is completed and final cost
is identified, or at the close of each fiscal year, whichever occurs first.
Evaluation of Capital Projects
Capital project and program reviews are to monitor existing project performance and to update the
Five -Year CIP. Each project must be actively managed and semi-annual reports on the physical
and fiscal status of each project should be made available to the City Council in conjunction with
the budget adoption and Mid -Year Financial Review.
Green Building Standards
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes requires the incorporation of green building principles and
practices into the design, construction, and operation of all City facilities, and to evaluate all land
purchases for future development on the basis of reducing environmental impacts whenever
feasible.
Standards for Maintenance
It is important to have standards in place for the various infrastructure systems throughout the City
to maintain this investment and be positioned to provide adequate services for the residents of
Rancho Palos Verdes. Staff will develop maintenance standards and schedules as appropriate.
Contingency Policy
The need for contingencies will be evaluated with each project and be included in the CIP on a
case-by-case basis.
Project Change Orders
Project change orders will be made in accordance with the policy stated in Section 02.44 of the
Municipal Code.

UNFUNDED PROJECTS
The following projects are those which have been identified as capital needs
through various planning processes, but currently there are no identified financial
resources to complete the projects. As funding becomes available and the City
Council prioritizes and approves projects, they may be moved into the funded Five -
Year CIP schedule. Additional projects will be identified in 2015 and 2016, through
the development of the Infrastructure Management Plan (IMP), involvement of the
Infrastructure Management Committee (IMAC), and completion of the Storm Drain
Master Plan, General Plan and Parks Master Plan.

SUMMARY OF MS4 REGULATIONS AND THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION IN FUTURE
PENINSULA WATER QUALITY PROJECTS
Public Works prepared the following summary on the topics of Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) and our participation in regional water quality projects.
Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Program
The Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) program is mandated by the EPA and
administered by the State in response to the Federal Clean Water Act, which has a goal of
reducing pollution from entering our nation's waterways, aquifers and oceans from storm drains.
The City operates a drainage system within its boundaries and is subject to MS4 water quality
regulations as promulgated by the State's local agent, the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality
Board. The City has certain responsibilities to enforce these regulations within its boundaries as
well as actively improve its infrastructure to improve the quality of urban runoff occurring in both
dry and wet weather. The regulations are becoming more strict and costly to implement as
scientists discover the increasing impacts of pollutants on human populations and the
environment and as technology to address the pollution improves. The City's current MS4 Permit
requires an order of magnitude (or more) in increasing stormwater quality from what was done
before, notably the requirement to construct treatment facilities if pollution cannot be reduced in
other ways to prescribed levels.
Peninsula Cities Stormwater Quality Projects
As described above, the current MS4 Permit requires the City to treat polluted stormwater before
leaving the City if it cannot prevent excessive pollution levels from occurring. The City has
partnered with other Peninsula cities and the County to form the Peninsula Watershed
Management Group (WMG). This group has developed an Enhanced Watershed Management
Program (EWMP) that describes the efforts the agencies will make to monitor storm water quality
at the Peninsula's outfalls, the efforts to reduce pollution from entering runoff in the first place,
and the potential treatment projects to be developed to reduce pollution if it cannot be reduced
with "non-structural" means.
The EWMP identifies two large projects in the Machado Lake watershed that may be required.
They are the Palos Verdes Landfill Regional Best Management Practices (BMP) project (cost
estimates range from $57,800,000 to $86,400,000) and the Valmonte Regional BMP project
($19,400,000 to $26,500,000). While these projects are outside of the City, we responsible for
an estimated 50% of the costs based on our contribution of runoff to these locations. A third
potential project is located at Eastview Park ($12,800,000 to $16,600,000 estimate) would be
within City limits.
The cost to build these treatment facilities is high and may be responsible per discussions with
the Water Board for costs between $38,000,000 and $58,500,000 (with a mid -point of
$47,250,000).
These projects are unlike any project the City has undertaken in scope and cost. The WMG is
continuing to look for less expensive alternatives and to seek grant funding and partnerships
with other agencies to reduce the burden. However compliance deadlines for the earliest of
these projects is estimated to be no more than 10 -years away and potentially within 3 to 5 years.

SUMMARY OF LEGAL ISSUES RELATED TO STORMWATER QUALITY REGULATORY
COMPLIANCE
The City Attorney has prepared the following summary of the issues and impacts related to
compliance with state and federal stormwater quality regulations.
City Attorney Summary:
The City of Rancho Palos Verdes is a Permittee subject to the Los Angeles County Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Permit No. CAS004001 (Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board Order No.
R4-2012-0175 as amended by State Water Board Order WQ 2015-0075) ("LA MS4 Permit").
The City is subject to the waste discharge requirements of the LA MS4 Permit and must comply
with the regulatory requirements set forth in the Federal Clean Water Act and the California
Porter -Cologne Water Quality Control Act. The City is required to develop and implement a
stormwater program and ensure compliance with the program and the LA MS4 Permit.
Failure to comply with the provisions or requirements of the LA MS4 Permit may subject a
Permittee to administrative or civil liabilities, criminal penalties, and other enforcement remedies.
Additionally, certain violations may subject a Permittee to civil or criminal enforcement from
appropriate local, state, or federal law enforcement entities.
The California Water Code provides that any person who violates a waste discharge requirement
or a provision of the California Water Code is subject to civil penalties of up to $5,000 per day,
$10,000 per day, or $25,000 per day of violation, or when the violation involves the discharge of
pollutants, is subject to civil penalties of up to $10 per gallon per day or $25 per gallon per day
of violation, or some combination thereof, depending on the violation(s). In fact, California Water
Code section 13385(h)(1) requires the Regional Water Board to assess a mandatory minimum
penalty of three -thousand dollars ($3,000) for each serious violation. California Water Code
section 13385(1) requires the Regional Water Board to assess a mandatory minimum penalty of
three -thousand dollars ($3,000) for each violation whenever a person violates a waste discharge
requirement effluent limitation in any period of six consecutive months, except that the
requirement to assess the mandatory minimum penalty shall not be applicable to the first three
violations within that time period. Therefore, the City could face large penalties for failure to
develop and implement an adequate stormwater quality program.
Several public entities have faced large fines from the State of California for failing to adequately
comply with stormwater quality requirements and implement necessary programs. For example,
in January 2013, a Regional Water Board threatened an enforcement action against the City of
San Diego because several private and public development sites lacked appropriate
mechanisms to treat stormwater prior to discharge. The series of potential violations recently
settled in December 2015, with the settlement resulting in a $949,634 fine levied on the city. Of
that amount, $492,734 will go to a State account for cleanup projects. The remaining $456,900
will be forgiven if the city completes an "enhanced compliance action." Additionally, in June
2015, the City of Encinitas had to pay a $430,000 fine for twice allowing sediment -filled
stormwater flow off a city park construction site into a local lagoon due to faulty drainage controls.
For these reasons, it is imperative that the City has adequate funds to develop and implement
its stormwater quality programs in order to comply with Federal and State regulatory
requirements, and to prevent illicit discharges to local waterbodies.

SUMMARY OF STORM DRAIN USER FEE REVIEW BY CITY COUNCIL ADVISORY
COMMITTEES
The information in the staff report was presented to the Storm Drain Oversight Committee on
October 29th, the Finance Advisory Committee on November 9th, and the Infrastructure
Management Advisory Committee on December 10, 2015 and January 14 and 28, 2016.
Each committee's inputs is described below.
Storm Drain Oversight Committee
A straw vote indicated that 3 members supported Staff's recommendation to move forward with
a mail -ballot election (Kim, Lyon and Sala), 1 member opposed at this time (Rodich), and 1
member was undecided (Johnson). All members appeared to recognize the scope of the City's
storm drain needs. Members in support of a mail -ballot election noted the quantified storm drain
need, a desire to balance the City's available resources with other infrastructure needs, and the
range of potential expenditures for water quality compliance. Noting the City's fund balances,
Member Rodich opined the City has accumulated enough General Fund money for the first 4-5
years of the program; and depending on its financial condition at the end of that period, the City
could consider asking the voters for another user fee. Member Johnson was in favor of a
dedicated revenue source for storm drains; but unsure if the user fee is the most appropriate
choice. Member Johnson indicated that storm drains will compete with other demands for the
City's limited resources (e.g. MS4 permit compliance, landslide management, other
infrastructure); but noted the other demands have not been fully quantified.
Finance Advisory Committee (FAC)
The FAC provided excellent feedback regarding presentation of information to the public, and
unanimously approved the following statement prepared by the Committee.
"Considering the potential costs of storm drain needs, absent a dedicated revenue
source, the ability to continue to fund the City's ongoing infrastructure needs would
be in jeopardy. The FAC recommends the City Council set the public hearing for
February 2016. "
The FAC discussed risk associated with the storm drain program, noting the consequences of a
failed storm drain may be much more significant than the consequences of a failed roadway.
The FAC considered whether the City should bear the potential risk of storm drain failure without
having asked the voters.
Infrastructure Management Advisory Committee (IMAC)
Due to the timing of the IMAC meeting and City Council agenda distribution, a summary of the
IMAC discussion and any recommendations will be provided to the City Council as late
correspondence. The Committee, however, has dedicated many hours over the course of three
meetings to delve into the future anticipated projects and has provided important and
constructive comments to Public Works related to project data and presentation.

Protestina Statement: We question the necessaries of "Storm Drain User Fee". Citv
should consider conducting this project under the current tax income. We even question
very much where and how the current tax goes. Also the fee proposed to increase is good
enough for every household to install a high quality drinking water filter system at home.
Moreover, the project is also to prevent flood. Did you get flood disaster here in the past
50 years? Why are you predicting we will have riood here in next 50 years? We strongly
disagree City to impose this fee to tax payers.

NOTICE
This Notice informs you, as a record owner of property within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, that on December 1, 2015, the City
Council adopted a Resolution scheduling a Public Hearing to consider an election to renew the Storm Drain User Fee (the "Fee") for
an additional 10 year period.
On April 19, 2005, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 418 imposing the Fee for each parcel draining into City -maintained
drainage infrastructure starting FY 2006-07. The proposed Fee for each parcel is computed in conformity with the methodology
approved in 2005 and the renewal of the Fee will allow for the collection of the Fee starting FY 2016-17 through FY 2025 -26.
The Public Hearing will be held during a regular meeting of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes City Council on January 19, 2016, at 7:00
p.m., in McTaggart Hall, at Fred Hesse Jr. Community Park, located at 29301 Hawthorne Boulevard, Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca.
All interested persons are invited to attend the Public Hearing and express opinions about the proposed Fee, and the written report.
The written report and Procedures for the conduct of the Public Hearing are on file in the office of the City Clerk and available for public
inspection. The written report for the renewal is also available for public inspection. These documents may also be viewed on the
City's website at: http://www.rpvca.gov/154/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED FEE
1. Purpose of the Fee: The City is proposing to renew the annual Storm Drain User Fee for the purpose of funding construction and
maintenance of the City's storm drain system pursuant to the City's Water Quality and Flood Protection Program (the "Program"). The
revenue generated over the next 10 years will be used to fund storm drain construction and replacement projects, over 18,000 linear
feet of storm drain lining, as well as the installation of filtration devices in catch basins around the City in compliance with federal
pollution reduction requirements.
The City has developed certain capital improvement plans, including the 2015 Master Plan of Drainage and the City's 2015 Five -Year
Capital Improvement Plan. In addition, the City has conducted studies, including a conditions assessment of 100% of existing storm
drains within the City to determine the overall condition and necessity for repairs and additional infrastructure to storm drain facilities.
Extending the Fee is necessary to meet the goals set forth in these various plans, including repairing existing infrastructure,
constructing stabilizing infrastructure to manage storm waters in the presence of canyons and other conditions within the City, as well
as to repair the lining within existing storm drains. The City utilized these studies and proposed improvements to calculate the amount
to be raised by the Fee, and amounts raised by the Fee will only be used for the purpose of financing projects relating to the City's
storm drain system. Further information on the method of calculating the fee can be found on the City's website at
http://www.rpvca.ciov/154/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
2. If approved, the proposed maximum annual Storm Drain User Fee rate for FY 2016-17 will be $96.85 per Equivalent Residential
Unit (ERU) which equates to $8.07 per ERU per month. Commencing with FY 2017-18, the maximum rate per ERU will increase by
the amount of the increase of the CPI, but not to exceed 2 percent each year. However, each year the City Council will hold a public
hearing and determine the actual rate per ERU that will be charged, which can be any amount up to the maximum rate.

City Hall must arrive at City Hall by 4:30 p.m. on January 19, 2016 to be counted. Only one written protest will be counted per
parcel.
Property Owner Election
In the absence of a majority protest, the City Council may order an election on the proposed Fee, One ballot will be provided for
each parcel subject to the proposed Fee. Ballots will be mailed to the record owner(s) of the parcels. The City Council may impose
the Fee if the Fee is approved by the majority of the returned ballots. If approved, the fee will be collected on the annual County
Property Tax Bills commencing with FY 2016-2017.
4. Protest Procedure:
Owners of real property subject to the Fee (and renters of such property who actually pay the Fee) in the City, who wish to protest the
extension of the Fee, can send in a written protest to the City Clerk at the address below and/or attend the public hearing on the Fee to
register their written protest at the hearing. Only one written protest per residential parcel in the city's service area (i.e.
address/assessor parcel number) will be counted. Written protests must be received by the City Clerk prior to or during the public
hearing on December 1, 2015. Any written protests received following the close of the public hearing will not be counted.
All written protests must (at a minimum) include the following information to be counted: (a) address or assessor parcel numbers of - -
property subject to the Fee, (b) name and signature of protester and whether the protester is a property owner or renter and (c) a clear
statement protesting the fee pursuant to this notice. Written protests by electronic mail will not be accepted. This protest hearing is
being conducted in accordance with Article XIIID of the Constitution. The City Council will not implement the procedures to authorize
the Fee should a majority protest against the Fee be received on all identified residential parcels in the City's service area.
Persons wishing to protest must submit such protests to the City Clerk at 30940 Hawthorne Boulevard, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
90275 before the public hearing or appear at the public hearing and submit their written protests at the hearing.

NOTICE
This Notice informs you, as a record owner of property within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, that on December 1, 2015, the City
Council adopted a Resolution scheduling a Public Hearing to consider an election to renew the Storm Drain User Fee (the "Fee") for
an additional 10 year period.
On April 19, 2005, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 418 imposing the Fee for each parcel draining into City -maintained
drainage infrastructure starting FY 2006-07. The proposed Fee for each parcel is computed in conformity with the methodology
approved in 2005 and the renewal of the Fee will allow for the collection of the Fee starting FY 2016-17 through FY 2025 -26.
The Public Hearing will be held during a regular meeting of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes City Council on January 19, 2016, at 7:00
p.m., in McTaggart Hall, at Fred Hesse Jr. Community Park, located at 29301 Hawthorne Boulevard, Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca.
All interested persons are invited to attend the Public Hearing and express opinions about the proposed Fee, and the written report.
The written report and Procedures for the conduct of the Public Hearing are on file in the office of the City Clerk and available for public
inspection. The written report for the renewal is also available for public inspection. These documents may also be viewed on the
City's website at: http://www.rpvca.gov/154/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED FEE
1. Purpose of the Fee: The City is proposing to renew the annual Storm Drain User Fee for the purpose of funding construction and
maintenance of the City's storm drain system pursuant to the City's Water Quality and Flood Protection Program (the "Program"). The
revenue generated over the next 10 years will be used to fund storm drain construction and replacement projects, over 18,000 linear
feet of storm drain lining, as well as the installation of filtration devices in catch basins around the City in compliance with federal
pollution reduction requirements.
The City has developed certain capital improvement plans, including the 2015 Master Plan of Drainage and the City's 2015 Five -Year
Capital Improvement Plan. In addition, the City has conducted studies, including a conditions assessment of 100% of existing storm
drains within the City to determine the overall condition and necessity for repairs and additional infrastructure to storm drain facilities.
Extending the Fee is necessary to meet the goals set forth in these various plans, including repairing existing infrastructure,
constructing stabilizing infrastructure to manage storm waters in the presence of canyons and other conditions within the City, as well
as to repair the lining within existing storm drains. The City utilized these studies and proposed improvements to calculate the amount
to be raised by the Fee, and amounts raised by the Fee will only be used for the purpose of financing projects relating to the City's
storm drain system. Further information on the method of calculating the fee can be found on the City's website at
http://www.rpvca.gov/154/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
2. If approved, the proposed maximum annual Storm Drain User Fee rate for FY 2016-17 will be $96.85 per Equivalent Residential
Unit (ERU) which equates to $8.07 per ERU per month. Commencing with FY 2017-18, the maximum rate per ERU will increase by
the amount of the increase of the CPI, but not to exceed 2 percent each year. However, each year the City Council will hold a public
hearing and determine the actual rate per ERU that will be charged, which can be any amount up to the maximum rate.

The proposed Fee amount for FY 2016-17 for your parcel, as well as the parcel area, land use designation and impervious percentage
used to calculate the Fee, is shown on the front of this notice on the upper right-hand side. Information on how the Fee is
calculated is provided in the detailed explanation fact sheet at the City website located at http://www.rpvca.gov/1 54/water-
quality-flood -protection- program.
If you think that the area or impervious percentage for your parcel is incorrect, please contact Mr. Andy Winje
(andyworpvca.gov, see additional contact information below), and the City will provide you with information on how to appeal your
User Fee amount.
The California Constitution requires that the proposed Fee must go through a two-step approval process. The first step is a Public
Hearing, and the second step is a property owner election.
Public Hearino
All property owners subject to the proposed Fee will be given the opportunity to protest the Fee at the Public Hearing. If at the
conclusion of the Public Hearing, written protests against the proposed Fee have been filed (and not withdrawn) by the owners of a
majority of the parcels subject to the Fee, then the process will stop and the Fee will not be imposed.
A written protest must identify the property and be signed, as further described below in Section 4. The City will not accept protests
by email. In order to be counted in determining whether there is a majority protest, written protests must be filed with the City Clerk
prior to the conclusion of the Public Hearing. Written protests may be delivered to the City Clerk at the Public Hearing or mailed or
delivered to the City Clerk at City Hall at the address shown on the front of this notice. Protests which are mailed or delivered to
City Hall must arrive at City Hall by 4:30 p.m. on January 19, 2016 to be counted. Only one written protest will be counted per
parcel.
Property Owner Election
In the absence of a majority protest, the City Council may order an election on the proposed Fee. One ballot will be provided for
each parcel subject to the proposed Fee. Ballots will be mailed to the record owner(s) of the parcels. The City Council may impose
the Fee if the Fee is approved by the majority of the returned ballots. If approved, the fee will be collected on the annual County
Property Tax Bills commencing with FY 2016-2017.
Protest Procedure:
Owners of real property subject to the Fee (and renters of such property who actually pay the Fee) in the City, who wish to protest the
extension of the Fee, can send in a written protest to the City Clerk at the address below and/or attend the public hearing on the Fee to
register their written protest at the hearing. Only one written protest per residential parcel in the city's service area (i.e.
address/assessor parcel number) will be counted. Written protests must be received by the City Clerk prior to or during the public
hearing on December 1, 2015. Any written protests received following the close of the public hearing will not be counted.
All written protests must (at a minimum) include the following information to be counted: (a) address or assessor parcel numbers of
property subject to the Fee, (b) name and signature of protester and whether the protester is a property owner or renter and (c) a clear
statement protesting the fee pursuant to this notice. Written protests by electronic mail will not be accepted. This protest hearing is
being conducted in accordance with Article XIIID of the Constitution. The City Council will not implement the procedures to authorize
the Fee should a majority protest against the Fee be received on all identified residential parcels in the City's service area.

Property Address: 20 Saddle Road
Land Use Designation: SFR5
Parcel Area (acreage): 1.03 ac
Impervious Percentage (%): 19.0 %
ERUs: 1.661
Proposed Annual Fee: $160.87
Owners: Craig E. and Lauren D. Magnusen
Dear City Clerk,
We, as owners of the property at 20 Saddle Road, protest the proposed extension of the annual
Storm Drain Fee, for the following reasons:
1) as residents of the Rockinghorse Community Association we pay for the maintenance of
roads and storm drains within our association, currently $550.00 annually, receiving no support
from the city.
2) the storm drain servicing the cul de sac of Saddle Road discharges to a natural creek
(Miraleste Creek) southwest of,upslope, and adjacent to Dodson Middle School, where storm
water encounters the first reinforced concrete culvert at county maintained station PD0146-line
A. As stated in Ordinance No. 418, storm water discharging to county maintained drainage is
exempt.
3) only the driveway apron and a one fourth "pie cut" of the cul de sac drain into the storm drain.
The rest of the property (house and hardscapes) is upslope of our vacant and unimproved land.
This area, considered for the city's calculations, drains into this vacant land and never
encounters any storm drains, rather runoff percolates into the vacant, unimproved land
downslope of the house and hardscapes. Vacant and unimproved land is exempt (Ordinance
No. 418).
4) points 2 and 3 are grounds for fee exemption, however if found insufficient by the city, the
only area serviced by any storm drain results in the following calculations:
X=ZY Z=X/Y where X=square footage of impervious area(sgft)
Y=acres(ac) RECEIVED
Z=impervious percentage(%) CITY OF RANCHO, P^' -OR VERDES
Z=784sgft/1.03ac=.021 %=.021 % impervious area --Drainage Units
Drainage Units / 0.021 JAN 0 4 21116
Median Drainage Units = 0.118
Equivalent Residential Units(ERUs) 0.17 ERUs
ERUs X Rate per ERU = 0.17X96.85= $16.91 annually CITY CLERK'S 6- i C E
We do not question the impervious percentage calculations of the city, rather the premise of 1)
having to pay a fee twice, (2) storm water discharged to county maintained drainage has no
impact on the city's infrastructure, and (3) the areas the city finds eligible for this calculation
drain to vacant and unimproved land and never encounter any storm drain . We contend we are
exempt from any fee. However, if the city ignores exemptions of Ordinance No. 418, the only_
area draining into any storm drain is the driveway apron and section of the road, resulting in the
annual fee of $16.91. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Craig E. and Lauren D. Xgnusen

Dear City Clerk and City Council Members;
December 23, 2015
RECEIVED
CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES
JAN 0 4 2016
CITY CLERK'S OFFICE
We have two reasons why we are protesting another Storm Drain User
Fee, for parcel owners in Rancho Palos Verdes until 2026 - 2027.
First, our property taxes that we already pay should be applied toward
the storm drain maintenance and infrastructure. The city knew in 2005,
that upgrading the storm drains was needed. The city should have
implement a plan to budget for future construction and maintenance.
Perhaps with the added income to the city from Terranea, this could
have been accomplished.
Second, not all parcels are equal. An equal share in a flat fee for each
parcel, increase it by two percent, for ten years, is not fair. We live in a
communal complex where we share limited and common space. Our
parcel space certainly does not compare with most Rancho Palos Verdes
parcels.
Again, in protest toward the Storm Drain User Fee, we think that the city
needs to use our property taxes and other revenue to better budget for
upgrading and maintaining our infrastructure. If our city can't afford to
do this then cuts need to be implemented.
Sincerely,
Mary Lou Xenos and Kevan Bunting

This is to register my protest to the proposed 10 -year extension
of the Storm Drain Ordinance. This action by the Council is
simply a way to avoid having to explain to the affected property
owners why the original plan did not accomplish the necessary
work. Either this, or to cover-up their intent to deliberately
under estimate the work required, knowing that if the actual cost
were known, it would have never originally been approved by a
note of the residents

PROTEST TO PROPOSED RENEWAL OF THE ANNUAL STORM DRAIN USER FEE FOR AN ADDITIONAL 10
YEARS (SEE ORDINANCE NO.418 APPROVED APRIL 19, 2005 BY CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES CITY
COUNCIL)
The Property is a single family residence and property owned and occupied by Owen A.
Silverman and Evelyn P. Silverman also trustees of the Silverman Family Trust. The parties have
continuously resided at said premises since 1973.
The property address is 30428 Camino Porvenir, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA 90275-4535.
The Assessors parcel number is 7588 009 020.
This protest is based on the following:
1. Proposition 13 added to California State Constitution, Article XIII as Article XIIIA in 1975
(Howard Jarvis Amendment). This fee will pose a tax burden upon the property in question
for another 10 years.
2. California Constitution Article 1, Section 1 "All people are by nature free and independent
and have inalienable rights. Among these are enjoying and defending life and liberty,
acquiring, possessing, and protecting property and pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness
and privacy. " Renewal of this 10 year "fee" by the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, CA will
violate the property rights of the property owners.
3. Amendments XIV to the United States Constitution is violated as such action by the city of
Rancho Palos Verdes renewing this 10 year old "fee" will violate the Due Process Clause and
the Equal Protection Clause of the fourteenth Amendment.

Please let this letter be official notice of our protest to the proposed extension of the cities property
owners Storm Drain User's Fee, for the following reasons.
Cirst of all we. property owners, need to know 1) the exact amount of fees collected during the prior
fee period, 2) How much of those fees were spent on the storm drain projects, 3) total amount needed
now and for what projects.
Need clear and specific the amount of annual fees and the exact percentage amounts for each years
fee increases per property owner. Our notice listing of such was confusing and contradictory at best.
At the top of our notice it states $ 107.52 for the 16-17 fee period. However, item # 2 at the bottom or
the page states $ 96.85 for the same period. Why the 10% difference. Again, with the listing for the ree
period of 17-18, this states fees not to increase each year by more than 2%.
This extension also gives the City the power to increase this few each of the 9 remaining years up to
the "maximum rate". which is a big question. We do not, nor do we believe that any other property
owners effected by this want to give any government agency this kind of uncontrolled taxing power.

CITY CLERK'S OFMCE
This letter is sent to protest the proposed renewal of Storm Drain Users Fee. The original
storm drain users fee had a sunset clause for good reason. At the time the city's finances
were not in sufficient condition to handle the cost to fix an emergency situation with
regards to the storm drains.
This crisis has passed and this "emergency" storm drain situation has been mitigated.
The city's finances have improved significantly. Future storm drain repairs should be
funded by ongoing normal revenues and not buy a special assessment.
Thank you,

This Notice informs you, as a record owner of property within the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, that on December 1, 2015, the City
Council adopted a Resolution scheduling a Public Hearing to consider an election to renew the Storm Drain User Fee (the "Fee") for
an additional 10 year period.
On April 19, 2005, the City Council approved Ordinance No. 418 imposing the Fee for each parcel draining into City -maintained
drainage infrastructure starting FY 2006-07. The proposed Fee for each parcel is computed in conformity with the methodology
approved in 2005 and the renewal of the Fee will allow for the collection of the Fee starting FY 2016-17 through FY 2025 -26.
The Public Hearing will be held during a regular meeting of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes City Council on January 19, 2016, at 7:00
p.m., in McTaggart Hall, at Fred Hesse Jr. Community Park, located at 29301 Hawthorne Boulevard, Rancho Palos Verdes, Ca.
All interested persons are invited to attend the Public Hearing and express opinions about the proposed Fee, and the written report.
The written report and Procedures for the conduct of the Public Hearing are on file in the office of the City Clerk and available for public
inspection. The written report for the renewal is also available for public inspection. These documents may also be viewed on the
City's website at: http://www.rpvca.gov/154/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED FEE
1. Purpose of the Fee: The City is proposing to renew the annual Storm Drain User Fee for the purpose of funding construction and
maintenance of the City's storm drain system pursuant to the City's Water Quality and Flood Protection Program (the "Program"). The
revenue generated over the next 10 years will be used to fund storm drain construction and replacement projects, over 18,000 linear
feet of storm drain lining, as well as the installation of filtration devices in catch basins around the City in compliance with federal
pollution reduction requirements.
The City has developed certain capital improvement plans, including the 2015 Master Plan of Drainage and the City's 2015 Five -Year
Capital Improvement Plan. In addition, the City has conducted studies, including a conditions assessment of 100% of existing storm
drains within the City to determine the overall condition and necessity for repairs and additional infrastructure to storm drain facilities.
Extending the Fee is necessary to meet the goals set forth in these various plans, including repairing existing infrastructure,
constructing stabilizing infrastructure to manage storm waters in the presence of canyons and other conditions within the City, as well
as to repair the lining within existing storm drains. The City utilized these studies and proposed improvements to calculate the amount
to be raised by the Fee, and amounts raised by the Fee will only be used for the purpose of financing projects relating to the City's
storm drain system. Further information on the method of calculating the fee can be found on the City's website at
hftp://www.rpvca.gov/1 54/water-quality-flood-protection-program.
2. If approved, the proposed maximum annual Storm Drain User Fee rate for FY 2016-17 will be $96.85 per Equivalent Residential
Unit (ERU) which equates to $8.07 per ERU per month. Commencing with FY 2017-18, the maximum rate per ERU will increase by
the amount of the increase of the CPI, but not to exceed 2 percent each year. However, each year the City Council will hold a public
hearing and determine the actual rate per ERU that will be charged, which can be any amount up to the maximum rate.
01203.0006/276093.1 Page 1 of 2
H-29
The proposed Fee amount for FY 2016-17 for your parcel, as well as the parcel area, land use designation and impervious percentage
used to calculate the Fee, is shown on the front of this notice on the upper right-hand side. Information on how the Fee is
calculated is provided in the detailed explanation fact sheet at the City website located at http://www.rpvca.gov/154/water-
quality-flood-protection-program.
If you think that the area or impervious percentage for your parcel is incorrect, please contact Mr. Andy Winje
(andyworpvca.gov, see additional contact information below), and the City will provide you with information on how to appeal your
User Fee amount.
3. The California Constitution requires that the proposed Fee must go through a two-step approval process. The first step is a Public
Hearing, and the second step is a property owner election.
Public Hearing
All property owners subject to the proposed Fee will be given the opportunity to protest the Fee at the Public Hearing. If at the
conclusion of the Public Hearing, written protests against the proposed Fee have been filed (and not withdrawn) by the owners of a
majority of the parcels subject to the Fee, then the process will stop and the Fee will not be imposed.
A written protest must identify the property and be signed, as further described below in Section 4. The City will not accept protests
by email. In order to be counted in determining whether there is a majority protest, written protests must be filed with the City Clerk
prior to the conclusion of the Public Hearing. Written protests may be delivered to the City Clerk at the Public Hearing or mailed or
delivered to the City Clerk at City Hall at the address shown on the front of this notice. Protests which are mailed or delivered to
City Hall must arrive at City Hall by 4:30 p.m. on January 19, 2016 to be counted. Only one written protest will be counted per
parcel.
Property Owner Election
In the absence of a majority protest, the City Council may order an election on the proposed Fee. One ballot will be provided for
each parcel subject to the proposed Fee. Ballots will be mailed to the record owner(s) of the parcels. The City Council may impose
the Fee if the Fee is approved by the majority of the returned ballots. If approved, the fee will be collected on the annual County
Property Tax Bills commencing with FY 2016-2017.
4. Protest Procedure:
Owners of real property subject to the Fee (and renters of such property who actually pay the Fee) in the City, who wish to protest the
extension of the Fee, can send in a written protest to the City Clerk at the address below and/or attend the public hearing on the Fee to
register their written protest at the hearing. Only one written protest per residential parcel in the city's service area (i.e.
address/assessor parcel number) will be counted. Written protests must be received by the City Clerk prior to or during the public
hearing on December 1, 2015. Any written protests received following the close of the public hearing will not be counted.
All written protests must (at a minimum) include the following information to be counted: Oraddress or assessor parcel numbers of
property subject to the Fee, (b) name and signature of protester and whether the protester is a property owner or renter and (c) a clear
statement protesting the fee pursuant to this notice. Written protests by electronic mail will not be accepted. This protest hearing is
being conducted in accordance with Article XIIID of the Constitution. The City Council will not implement the procedures to authorize
the Fee should a majority protest against the Fee be received on all identified residential parcels in the City's service area.
Persons wishing to protest must submit such protests to the City Clerk at 30940 Hawthorne Boulevard, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
90275 before the public hearing or appear at the public hearing and submit their written protests at the hearing.
If you challenge this proposal in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you, or someone else raised at the public hearing
described in this Public Hearing Notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the City Clerk at, or prior to the Public Hearing.
For more information, or if you have questions, contact: Deborah Cullen, Director of Finance, or Michael Throne, Director of Public
Works, City of Rancho Palos Verdes, Telephone: 310-377-0360 Fax: 310-544-5291 email: dcullengrpvca.gov or

G I Y C'LERK'S rD
The proposed Storm Drain User Fee is not fair, because not every parcel in the City of
Rancho Palos Verdes is taxed. I am the owner of parcel #7566-013-025 located on a
private drive off of Crownview. The parcels on my side of the drive are taxed, but the
parcels on the other side of the driveway are not, because those parcels are supposedly
not draining into city sewers.
However when it rains, the run-off all goes down into the same storm drains. When the
residents of the untaxed parcels wash their cars, etc., the water flows down the driveway
into city sewers. When they drain their pools, they extend a drain hose into the common
driveway and the water flows into the city sewers.
I own the flag lot, so the common drive used by owners on both side of the drive is
recorded on my deed. So I pay the additional tax on this area used by all residents and
guests on both sides of the drive. This is not fair to the many owners of flag lot parcels
in the City of RPV.
Please consider fair and equitable in this tax proposal. Please be very certain that owners
of parcels in the City that are not taxed, are not privileged to vote on the tax.
Sincerely yours,

Attention: City Clerk
Inre: Our PROTEST regarding the proposed extension of the annual
Fee imposition on property owners for the maintenance of the storm drain system
pursuant to the City's Water Quality and Flood Protection Program.
***********************************************************************************
Dear Honorable Members of the Rancho Palos Verdes City Council:
We are in receipt of the city's Notice of Public gearing which is
scheduled on February 2, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. at the Hesse Community Park.
Because it is unlikely that we will be able to attend the hearing, we
are writing to you now to express our TOTAL OPPOSITION TO ANY
EXTENSION OF THE ANNUAL STORM DRAIN USER FEE beyond its
current June 30, 2016 expiration date.
The "Fee" is actually a property tax that has been imposed on property
owners despite the provisions and spirit of Proposition 13. The tax discriminates
unfairly because only 80% of Rancho Palos Verdes residents are unfairly required to
pay the "User Fee".
We have also been informed by reliable sources that almost
$20.000.000.00 still remains available for storm drain maintenance from
collections of this unfair tax during the past ten years. A continuation of this
Unfair Rroperty tax is not needed by the city at this time for it's stated pMpose.
Pursuant to your Notice of Public Hearing, as per your instructions, Im
hereby state that we are the joint owners lthrouQh our revocable family
trust L and the resident occuflanta of our home located at 5809 Flambeau Road.
Rancho Palos Verdes, CA 90275.

Re: Renew storm Drain User Fee
CIN OF PANCHC•
As an Owner of the above address for the last 28 years, I, Deanna Kolbas, is
formally protesting the renewal of the Storm Drain user fee.
As the city had knowledge of the future upgrading storm drains were needed back
in 2005, the city should have implemented a plan to budget for future construction
and maintenance. I also believe that part of the property taxes should be applied
toward the renewal of the storm drain system.
I also don't agree on the two percent increase for the next 10 years, it is not fair
that everyone have to pay a flat rate since we are limited on common areas.
If the city can't afford to do this upgrading with the property taxes money, then
cuts need to be implemented in other areas.
Sincerely;
Deanna Kolbas

PROTEST OF PROPOSED STORM DRAIN USER FEE
ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NUMBER: 7566-004-012
PROPERTY ADDRESS: 15 Diamonte Ln
LAND USE DESIGNATION: SFR4
We the undersigned property owners protest the proposed extension of the storm drain user
fee for the following reasons:
1. The original ballot for the storm drain user fee was illegitimate because it was not a
secret ballot. The ballots were counted by the City Clerk and other City staff and City
Council had access to how individual property owners voted.
2. The City's publicity falsly stated the fee would only be $150 annually for most homes.
Ours is $324 for a 2500 sq. ft. (average size) house.
3. 20% of property owners in the City are excused from paying the storm drain fee. That
means they also do not pay a fair share of the storm water mitigation from the City's
hardscape — roads, parks, buildings, parking lots, etc. which they use. 80% of the property
owners pay 100% of the cost to control storm water from City property.
4. The City now has a major stream of income from the Terranea Resort which it did not
have in the past and therefore doesn't need added income from a parcel tax, especially one
that is not equally distributed across all properties.
5. The proposed assessment is called a "fee". In actuality it is a tax and under State law
requires passage by 2/3 of all voters in the City. This is proven by the contention that the
City will hold an "election" to pass this tax assessment.
Signed by the following protesting property owners.

This letter is my written protest to the continuation of the Storm Drain User Fee as

I am the owner of the property located at 6012 Sandbrook Drive, RPV, APN 7578-
021-026.
While there is no requirement that I articulate the grounds upon which I make this
protest, I would like to inform you of such grounds. It is clear to me that funds
raised and set aside for storm drain purposes have been applied to projects that are
outside the scope of the purposes for which the fees have been collected and instead
used in some instances for general storm water management purposes that benefit
all residents and not just those upon whom the fee has been imposed. This "fee" is,
in fact, a tax, and should be paid, if at all, by all property owners. As such, the tax
should be the subject of a vote that requires a 2/3rds majority rather than.a simple
majority

At the time of this fee's inception the city indicated that after ten years the revenues
derived from the Terranea Resort would be used to fund storm drain maintenance and
new projects. The resort has been providing many millions of dollars in revenue above
the initial projections. There is no need to obtain additional funds from property owners.

Notice of Storm Drain Fee Protest and Calculation of Storm Drain Fee Protest
This letter is to inform the City Clerk that Heath A Wood and Mercedes Michel Wood
are the owners and occupiers of the property identified by the Assessor's Parcel Number
7554-018-011, and address of 28652 Roan Rd, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA. It also informs
you that we do not feel the Storm Drain Fee is justified as detailed below so we are filling
a protest of this fee:
You have been collecting this fee for 10 years as originally agreed to and there is no need
to continue with a supplemental fee. This should come out of our regular property tax.
The property that we occupy absorbs all rainfall. The driveway and home occupy about
20% of the parcel and the rest is covered by vegetation and mulch that absorbs all the
water that falls on it. In all the time that we have occupied this house there has not been
any runoff from our property. Even with the heavy rain last week there was no runoff.
Also there is no canyon for the water to run into as the bottom of our lot is flat and the
land behind our lot is flat.
For some reason you are showing the property as being 41 % impervious. Assuming this
means that you calculate our lot is 41% covered by impervious materials, this is
completely wrong. If you are going to force us to pay this unfair fee; it should be based
on no more than 20% impervious. Are all your assessments double the actual number?
Please see the attached Google Maps photo.
Sincerely,
Heath A Wood Mercedes Michel Wood
