BACKGROUND
On March 24,2008,the Council conducted a workshop where Management Partners
presented its findings and recommendations resulting from the comprehensive review of
the City organization,which included several recommendations regarding the City's
advisory boards.After considerable discussion at the workshop and a subsequent Council
meeting,the Council directed staff to work with each advisory board to revise their mission
statements and prepare work plans.In July and August of 2008,the Council adopted
revised establishing resolutions and approved work plans for the Emergency Preparedness
Committee (EPC),the Finance Advisory Committee (FAC)and the Traffic Safety
Commission (TSC).A copy of each advisory board's establishing resolution is attached.
DISCUSSION

liaison shall prepc;lre an annual work plan to be presented to the City Council for approval.
Therefore,please find attached the FY1 0-11 Work Plans for the EPC,FAC and TSC.As

The City Council approved the FY09-10 work plans for each committee.The FAC
completed all tasks in their FY09-10 work plan.The EPC completed all items in their
FY09-10 work plan with the exception of the following task:
•Prepare quarterly emergency preparedness public service announcements.
This task was not completed due to scheduling conflicts for the Committee members and
additional unanticipated demands on the staff coordinator's time.The task has been
recalibrated and continued into the FY1 0-11 work plan.
The TSC completed all items in their FY09-1 0 work plan with the exception of the following
task:
•Perform a staff review and evaluation of traffic and traffic patterns on Palos Verdes
Drive South after the Terranea Hotel and Resort opens.
This scope ofthis task has been expanded and has been continued into the FY10-11 work
plan.It now includes analyzing Palos Verdes Drive West/Palos Verdes Drive South to
evaluate traffic resulting from Terranea,Golden Cove improvements,the Annenberg
project and the Veterinarian Hospital project.The analysis is scheduled to be completed
by December 31,2010.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
At the Finance Advisory Committee meeting on April 28,2010,the following motion was
made to amend the Committee's Work Plan.
Member Dye motioned to make a recommendation to the City Council to add to the
Committee's 2010-11 Work Plan a review of the cost-benefit analysis for replacement of
the City Hall building.The Committee's review would be performed in conjunction with
Staff's efforts to meet the 2010 Tactical Plan milestone:"By March 31,2011,provide a
report to the City Council regarding the most likely plans and estimated cost ranges for
each major element of a new Civic Center".Member Bradley seconded.The motion
passed unanimously via a roll caJrvote.
If the City Council would like to include this task in the FAC's Work Plan,a motion must be
made to amend the attached Work Plan.Ifthe Council decides to amend the FAC's Work
Plan,Staff proposes that this review be limited to two meetings of the FAC which would
require approximately 40 additional hours of staff time (20 hours per meeting).
Two items in the EPC Work Plan require consideration by the City Council.The EPC has
proposed a program to provide a subsidy for residents to purchase emergency supply kits
in their FY10-11 work plan.The estimated annual cost of this program is $10,000.The
EPC also included the preparation of a bi-annual Emergency Preparedness Newsletter in
15-2

their FY1 0-11 work plan at an annual cost of $10,000.At the BUdget Workshop on May
22,2010,the City Council tentatively approved the emergency kit expenditure;however,
the newsletter item was cut from the FY10-11 budget.The EPC Work Plan has been
amended to reflect the items tentatively approved in the FY10-11 budget.

Committee Responsibilities
In June 2009,the City completed its Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update,Which
identified needed improvements to the sanitary sewer system in the City.The
sewer fees levied and collected by the County of Los Angeles Sanitation District
only provide for maintenance and emergency repairs to the sewer system.The
burden of providing required upgrading and refurbishing of the sewer system is
on the City.The amount of money from ad valorem taxes available to the City is
inadequate to fund capital replacement costs.The se.ice provided by the
County Sanitation Districts in the City is limited to r maintenance and
emergency repairs.Accordingly,the purpose of t wide sewer fee is to
provide funds so the City can upgrade and refur sewer system,which
includes the construction of capital improve so that the City's
sewer system will operate properly.
Timeline
The timing of a review of the proposed Sewer User Fee is yet to be determined.
Resources
Staff time devoted to this task includes a Staff Report for the Committee and the
two proposed Committee meetings.
