AGENDA REPORT
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JAMES MAKSHANOFF, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
SONIA CARVALHO, CITY ATTORNEY
VIA: F.M. DELACH, CITY MANAGER,{o
DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2009
SUBJECT: REGULATION OF CABLE TELEVISION PROVIDERS AND ADOPTION OF
ORDINANCE IMPLEMENTING STATE CABLE LAW
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce and conduct the first reading of the proposed
ordinance adding an article to the City's existing cable ordinance to reflect state law, establishing
a franchise fee for video services and adopting penalties for customer service violations by video
service providers.
BACKGROUND:
A law took effect in California that allows both telephone companies and traditional cable
companies to obtain state -issued statewide franchises to provide video service. These franchises
replace local cable franchises. This agenda report explains what the new legislation means for
the City and describes how adopting the proposed ordinance will help the City implement the
new legislation.
DISCUSSION:
Governor Schwarzenegger signed a bill known as AB 2987, which significantly changed the role
of cities in regulating cable television services. The law, also known as the "Digital
Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006," shifts the responsibility for issuing cable
franchises away from cities to the California Public Utilities Commission ("CPUC"). The bill
was heavily supported by Verizon and AT&T, which plan to provide video services in
competition with cable companies.
One of the key provisions of AB 2987 allows incumbent cable providers to abandon their local
cable franchises and obtain a state -issued franchise. Although AB 2987 changes the regulatory
landscape with respect to cable providers, some things have not changed. The City will still
receive a franchise fee equal to 5% of gross revenues from cable providers. The City can also
continue to require cable providers to provide the existing government access channel. AB 2987
allows cable providers to take back this channel if the City does not air enough non -repetitive
—I—
programming on it. Charter Cable has informed the City that they will no longer produce or
support televising council meetings or "Public/Education/Government access, as required by the
former franchise. Therefore it is necessary that the City Council consider the I% increase to the
fee to insure that adequate programming is provided.
AB 2987 requires cities to enforce the laws customer service standards and calls for cities to
adopt ordinances establishing penalties for violations of these standards. AB 2987 also gives
cities certain rights and responsibilities, such as the right to audit the books of state franchisees
that can be codified in an ordinance.
The proposed ordinance would add an article to the City's existing cable ordinance to reflect AB
2987. Most of the existing ordinance will no longer be enforceable because the City is no longer
in charge of cable franchising. The proposed ordinance will clarify that the existing ordinance
does not apply to the extent it is preempted by state or federal law and will adopt customer
service penalties (in amounts specified by AB 2987). The ordinance will also require state
franchisees to pay a 1% fee to support the public, educational, and governmental (PEG) access
television channel. Use if PEG funds will be restricted to the purposes allowed by state and
federal law. I
FISCAL IMPACT
A I% in crease in the Cable TV Franchise Fee will $46,000 in revenue per fiscal year and would
allow for the continued i roadcasting of City Council Meetings and Planning Commission
Meetings.

ORDINANCE NO. 2008 -
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF AZUSA, CALIFORNIA AMENDING THE AZUSA
MUNICIPAL CODE TO ADD AN ARTICLE REGARDING
THE ESTABLISHMENT OF FRANCHISE FEES, PUBLIC
ACCESS SUPPORT FEES AND CUSTOMER SERVICE
PENALTIES FOR STATE FRANCHISE HOLDERS
PROVIDING VIDEO SERVICE WITHIN THE CITY OF
AZUSA
WHEREAS, a new state law known as the Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition
Act of 2006 ("AB 2987') went into effect January 1, 2007; and
WHEREAS, under AB 2987, the State of California is authorized to issue video services
franchises; and
WHEREAS, the City of Azusa ("City"), although not the franchising authority with
respect to franchises issued under AB 2987, has certain rights and responsibilities with respect to
the new state video franchise holders, which must be addressed through the adoption of an
ordinance; and
WHEREAS, AB 2987 provides that the City shall receive a fee of five percent (5%) of
gross revenues of each state video franchisee which operates within the City for use of the public
rights-of-way, but requires the City to adopt an ordinance in order to make this effective; and
WHEREAS, AB 2987 further authorizes. the City to establish and enforce penalties
against state video franchisees for violations of customer service rules consistent with state law;
and
WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance adds Article XVI to Chapter 22 of the Azusa
Municipal Code but does not apply to any locally issued franchise or franchisee;

"Article XVI. State Video Services Franchises.
Sec. 22-291. Applicability of chapter to state video services franchises.
Notwithstanding any provision of this chapter to the contrary, nothing in this
chapter shall be deemed to require any person or entity to obtain a franchise or license issued by
the City, to the extent that such person or entity is authorized to provide cable service or video
services, as defined in Section 5800 et seq. of the California Public Utilities Code, under a cable
franchise or video services franchise issued by another government entity under applicable law,
including but not limited to Section 5800 et seq. of the California Public Utilities Code. The
requirements and provisions of this chapter shall not apply or be enforced to the extent that they
actually conflict with applicable state or federal law.
Sec. 22-292. Regulation of state video services franchisees.
This article lis designed to regulate video service providers, as defined in Section

video franchises pursuandto the Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006

holders operating within the City. Additionally, the City has the responsibility to establish and
enforce penalties, consistent with state law, against all state video franchise holders operating
within the City for violations of customer service standards, but the Act grants all authority to
adopt customer service standards to the state. The Act leaves unchanged the City's authority to

which remained unsatisfied as of the effective date of this ordinance; or (ii) the termination by
the holder of a City -issued, cable franchise of its franchise as provided under state law. The intent
of this subsection is to comply with the requirements of subsections (1), (m), and (n) of Section

of the notice. Once the City has approved the form of notice, the franchisee shall not be required
to obtain additional approvals of notice from the City, so long as the franchisee does not
materially deviate from the form of notice approved by the City."
SECTION 2. SEVERABILITY.

CONSENT ITEM
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: KURT CHRI��E1N, ECONOMIC AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
DIRECTOR
VIA: F.M. DELACH, CITY MANAGERAVP,
DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2009
SUBJECT: ANNUAL WEED ABATEMENT RESOLUTION (IMPROVED PARCELS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution declaring hazardous
brush, dry grass, weeds, combustible growth or flammable vegetation, to include ornamental
vegetation, in the City of Azusa a seasonal and recurring nuisance, and setting the date and time
of February 17, 2009, at 7:30 p.m., as the date and time to conduct a protest hearing for affected
property owners before the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Azusa has contracted with the Los Angeles County Fire Department since 1982. In
an amended and restated agreement entered into in 1997, the City of Azusa was formally
recognized by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors as being part of the Consolidated
Fire Protection District. Since the City is now recognized as part of the District, the Los Angeles
County Department of Agriculture is now authorized to perform all weed abatement activities on
unimproved (vacant land) parcels and due process is provided through the Board of Supervisors.
However, due to terms of the City's contract with the Consolidated Fire Protection District a
separate hearing is still required for improved land parcels within the City of Azusa. As such, the
attached Resolution sets a date and time for a protest hearing for affected property owners to
challenge their inclusion on the proposed Declaration List of parcels that were determined by the
Fire Department to contain hazardous and obnoxious weed growth.
Honorable Mayor and Members of the;City Council
February, 2, 2009 Sr
Weed Abatement Resolution 2009
Page 2 of 2
The original draft Resolution provided by the Fire Department contained language referring to
inspection fees and non-compliance fines. Staff has discussed this with the Fire Department and
they have agreed to adhere to provisions set forth in the Amended and Restated Agreement for
Services between the City of Azusa and the Consolidated Fire Protection District dated
September 30, 1997. Should any fees or fines be collected from Azusa property owners, the
County would be required to credit the total amount generated from the following year
contracted cost for fire protection services.
The attached Resolution declares certain improved properties within the City to be a public
nuisance due to the presence of noxious weeds and debris as determined by Los Angeles County
Fire Department Inspectors. This is simply the first step in the weed abatement process for
improved parcels, and notifies property, owners that weeds and debris must be abated. Once
notified, the affected property owner(s) can either clean and maintain their properties themselves,
or have the County perform the service for a fee. The Resolution further sets the date of February
17, 2009 at 7:30 p.m. as the date and time for hearing of any protests from the affected property
owners.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No costs to the City of Azusa are projected since the inspection and abatement costs would be
incurred by the Consolid i ted Fire Protection District and covered under the existing contract for
services.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SOLICIT BIDS FOR CITY HALL AND CITY YARD
"LIGHT" BUILDING REMODEL PROJECTS (CIP #s: 11006A & 73009F)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize staff to solicit bids for the following Capital
Improvement Projects: 2°d Floor City Hall Remodel (11006A) and "Light" Building Remodel
(73009F). It is also recommended that the City Council approve the consolidation of both Capital
Improvement Projects (11006A & 73009F); both projects are funded from the Public Works
Endowment Fund.
BACKGROUND
In 2005, the Electric Division vacated their offices in the City Yard and relocated to a new facility
on 1020 W. 10th Street. The old facility has remained vacant and is in need of a major
rehabilitation, including removal of mold and asbestos, in order to be occupied. This facility will
house the Public Works Director, Administrative Secretary, Senior Management Analyst and the
Engineering Division. Relocating the Engineering Division to the City Yard will also free -up much
needed office space in West Wing.
The 1st floor of City Hall is currently being renovated and is scheduled for completion by mid-
February. This portion of the remodel was the first phase of the City Hall Renovation CIP while
the second phase includes remodel of the upstairs offices and lobby. The project was split in order
to minimize impact to staff and the public.
FISCAL IMPACT
Both CIPS (11006A & 73009F) are budgeted from the Public Works Endowment Fund. The
engineer's estimate for both projects is estimated at $450,000, within the amount budgeted.

SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT— CITY YARD SECURITY ACCESS SYSTEM
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council award a contract to Superior Alarm System Inc., in the amount
of $15,076.16 for a security access system.
BACKGROUND
The existing security gate at the City Yard has been in place for over 25 years. The gate is structurally
damaged, it requires manual operation and does not track access to the Yard. Superior Alarm Systems
will provide an automatic access control system that is networked and allows staff to track user access.
The proposed system also has expandable capabilities to include electronic access to the City Yard
"Light Building". The increased security measures will be very valuable as we have recently
experienced theft of copper wire at our City Yard.
Superior Alarm currently services the security access systems at City Hall, Police Department and Light
and Water. As this is an expansion of our current infrastructure, staff has determined it is in the City's
best interest to sole source this project to Superior Alarm System. Further, this purchase can be sole
sourced under Azusa's Purchasing Ordinance Section 2-522 (a); City is exempt from procuring through
a competitive bid process "if its determined that a competitive bid procedure has been conducted by
another public agency and the price to the City is equal to or better than that price to that public agency."
Superior Alarm Systems currently has a GSA Contract (# GS -07F -7733C, expiration: August 31, 2010).
FISCAL IMPACT
Cost of the security access system will be paid out of the Light Building Remodel (CIP #73009F).
Capital Improvement Project #s 66603A, 66607B and 66607C (Security Gate) were consolidated in FY
2008/09 to CIP #73009F.

TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY AND MAPPING SERVICES FOR FOOTHILL
BOULEVARD.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize staff to solicit proposals to obtain topographic
survey and mapping services for Foothill Boulevard between Todd Avenue and Orange Avenue.
BACKGROUND
On November 3, 2008, the City Council approved an agreement with the City of Irwindale to
represent the City of Azusa in all negotiations and administration for the reconstruction of
Foothill Boulevard from the westerly city boundary to Todd Avenue. Originally, the engineer's
estimate was $680,000. Fortunately, largely because of the dramatic decrease in the cost of oil,
the actual cost to reconstruct the.section was $371,000. Reconstruction of this portion will begin
by the end of February.
In addition, the City has received its FY 2008/2009 Proposition 1B funding of $723,088. With
this amount and the remaining funds from the first section, staff can complete the reconstruction
of Foothill Boulevard from the westerly city limits to Orange Avenue in conjunction with this
fiscal year's Pavement Management Program.
As such, staff requests authorization to obtain topographic survey and, mapping services for
Foothill Boulevard between Todd Avenue and Orange Avenue. The segment of Foothill
Boulevard from Todd Avenue to Orange Avenue is aged and deteriorated requiring
reconstruction. Engineering Division requires topographic survey and mapping services to
support design to prepare contract documents for the improvement of Foothill Boulevard from
Todd Avenue to Orange Ave.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost for this work is $45,000. Funds for the topographic survey and mapping
services are available from CIP #66109F.

DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2009
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION FOR THE CITY OF AZUSA TO ENTER
INTO A JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT (JPA) WITH THE LOS ANGELES
RADIO INTEROPERABLE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM (LA-RICS)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution that: (1) approves the Los
Angeles Regional Interoperable Communications System Joint Powers Agreement thus
authorizing the City's membership in the LA-RICS Authority; and (2) authorizes the City
Manager to execute the JPA Agreement. In addition, it is recommended that staff be directed to
report back on the status of the LA-RICS Authority prior to the adoption of the funding plan with
a recommendation on whether to continue the City's membership in the JPA at that time.
BACKROUND
Following the events of September 11, 2001, the National 9-11 Commission, in.its report to
Congress and the President, identified a very serious weakness in our various metropolitan areae
ability to respond to regional crises and disaster -type events: the lack of interoperable
communications. As a result, a steering committee was created to further the creation of a"Los
Angeles Regional Interoperable Communications Systeni' (LA-RICS) for the purpose of
developing and implementing a modem, integrated wireless voice and data communications
system that will support the communication needs of the more than 34,000 first responders and
local mission -critical personnel within the Los Angeles county region.
1
The idea behind the project is to have a county -wide public safety communications system that
allows for improved communications among the various public safety agencies that operate in
the region. Currently, local and regional police and fire departments do not have inherent
capabilities for inter -agency communications. While ad hoc and other significant, locally
designed systems (such as the Interagency Communications Interoperability System or `ICIS)
provide some interagency communications, a true county -wide system does not exist. A major
concern is that in the event of a significant disaster or calamity, when inter -agency
communication is most needed, the current system(s) will not allow for sufficient coordination
between the various law enforcement and fire departments that operate in the County.
Joint Powers Agreement - For the past two and one-half years, the LA-RICS Steering
Committee, consisting of county -wide principal stakeholders, including city manager
representatives from the Kalifornia Contract Cities and Independent Cities Associations, has
been meeting to review the technical and governance issues associated with maintaining and
operating such a system for the benefit of all communities in Los Angeles County. Recently, the
LA-RICS Steering Committee drafted and is now recommending a Joint Powers Agreement
(JPA) that will form the LA-RICS Authority that will include the establishment of a Board of
Directors to oversee I LA-RICS operations. On August 19, 2008, the
Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved the JPA. It is anticipated that the Los
Angeles City Council will also approve the.JPA by mid-October. Additionally, both the Los
Angeles Area Fire Chiefs and Los Angeles Area Police Chiefs Associations have endorsed the
JPA. The JPA approval process requires that cities wishing to become `Member Citieg' must
approve the JPA document within 45 days following both the Countys and City of Los Angele§
execution of the JPA. I
JPA KEYPOINTS
Under the JPA, the Authority will possess the following powers related to LA-RICS:
➢ To make and enter into contracts, including but not limited to, agreements for the purpose
of acquiring real and/or personal property, equipment, employment contracts and
professional services agreements;
➢ To make and enteri into contracts with subscribing agencies who desire to utilize the
System for theirprimary radio communications or affiliates who desire to utilize the
System only for mutual and/or automatic aid;
➢ To acquire, construct, maintain, and operate a telecommunications systems or service and
to provide the equipment necessary to deliver public services thereby;
➢ To acquire, construct, manage, maintain or operate any building, works or improvements;
➢ To acquire, hold, lease, or dispose of property;
➢ To sue and be sued in its own name;
➢ To apply for, receiive and utilize grants and loans from federal, state or local governments
or from any other available source in order to pursue the purposes of the Authority;
2
➢_ To issue bonds and to otherwise incur debts, liabilities and obligations, provided that no
such bond, debt, liability or obligation shall constitute a debt, liability or obligation to the
individual respective Members;
➢ To invest any money in the treasury, which is not required for the immediate necessities
of the Authority, as the Authority determines is advisable, in the same manner and upon
the same conditions as local agencies, pursuant to Section 53601 of the California
Government Code; and
➢ To promulgate, adopt, and enforce any rules and regulations, as may be necessary and
proper to implement and effectuate the terms, provisions, and purposes of this
Agreement.
Funding Plan - In order to encourage maximum participation by all cities in Los Angeles County,
the JPA is set up so that no financial commitments will be require of participating Member
Cities until such time that the newly established Board of Directors adopts a funding plan
identifying short and long term capital and operations & maintenance requirements. It is
anticipated that the funding plan will be developed within nine months following the Authoritys
establishment. All of the Authoritys members will have the opportunity to participate in the
development of the funding plan and to identify and assess members' various abilities to
contribute resources, including financial, staffing, 'equipment, infrastructure or other
contributions. If, at any time prior to the adoption of the funding plan, a Member agency feels
that it cannot contribute the identified resources or that it would not be in its best interests to
continue participating in the system, that agency may terminate its membership without financial
contribution or penalty.
While initial estimates indicate that LA -RIGS will cost between $485 million and $630 million,
the actual cost to implement LA-RICS will not be known until an RFP for the build -out of the
system is released and bids are received. To the fullest extent possible, grant funding will be
sought to fund this project; in fact, the regional stakeholders have agreed that 60 percent of all
Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI) grant funding for the region will be dedicated to LA-
RICS. Thus far, the Steering Committee has spent over $9 million in City and County funds
toward the development of the LA-RICS system. Nonetheless, despite the expected availability
of future UASI and other grants, undoubtedly, additional financial resources will be needed to
complete funding of LA-RICS. Member agencies will be able to take part in the development of
the funding plan, which will give them the opportunity. as stated above to terminate its
membership without financial contribution oren nalty if such Member agency feels that it cannot
contribute the identified resources.
Governance Structure—As per the JPA, the composition of the Governing Board of Directors,
none of whom shall be elected officials (other than the Sheriff), shall be as follows:
1. The City of Los Angeles City Administrative Officer
2. The City of Los Angeles Fire Chief
3. The City of Los Angeles Police Chief
4. The City of Los Angeles Chief Legislative Analyst
3
5. The County of Lois Angeles Chief Executive Officer
6. The County of Los Angeles Fire Chief
7. The Sheriff of Los Angeles County
8. The County of Los Angeles Department of Health Services Director
9. The Los Angeles Unified School District Police Chief
10. The City of Long (Beach
11. The Los Angeles Area Fire Chiefs Association
12. The Los Angeles County Police Chiefs Association
13. The California Contract Cities Association
14. At -Large Member City
15. At -Large Member City
16. At -Large Member City
17. At -Large Member City
Within fifteen days of the ieffective date of the JPA, At -Large Directors and Alternate Directors
shall be selected by a majority vote of the Member Cities (excluding the cities of Los Angeles
and Long Beach) at a spe ial`�selection meeting'to be convened. The At -Large Directors shall be
selected as follows:
• One At -Large Director (and one Alternate Director) must represent a Member City that
operates both independent police and fire departments;
• Two At -Large Directors (and two Alternates) must represent Member Cities that operate an
independent police department and/or an independent fire department; and
• One At -Large Director (and one Alternate Director) must represent a Member City not
otherwise represented on the Board.
A city must have adopted jthe JPA to vote at the selection meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT
None at this time. There is no financial commitment or obligation from the City until such time
as a`Rmding plari'has been adopted by the Authority, thus giving the City ample opportunity to
evaluate and assess the Authoritys financial structure and the Cit}?s potential future resource
liability, all -the -while retraining the ability to "opt -out' of the Authority at any time up to the
adoption of the funding plan.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached Resolution of support for a NFL stadium
in the City of Industry
BACKGROUND
At the January 19, 2009 City Council meeting, Mayor Tern Angel Carrillo asked staff to bring to the
City Council a resolution of support for the proposed NFL stadium in the City of Industry.
A private developer for a site adjacent to Grand Avenue and the 57/60 Freeway interchange in the
City of Industry has proposed a 75,000 seat NFL stadium (approximately 12 miles from City Hall).
Along with the stadium the developer is proposing to build commercial office space, retail space,
movie theatre, live theatre and a medical facility. Originally the site was to be a large industrial
project. It is expected that the NFL stadium project would have less traffic and environmental
impacts then the previously approved industrial project.
• It is expected that the stadium project will add almost 7,000 jobs in the area. This will
include entry level, medical, entertainment, executive and advertising/marketing jobs.
• Construction of the stadium will need almost 12,000 new jobs.
• According to the developer over$700 million per year will be added to the local economy.
• Over the last 6 Years the developer's foundation has donated over$2.4 million to local
groups; including Azusa Pacific University and the Homework House.
• There will be a maximum of 45 events per year at the stadium.

DATE: FEBRUARY 2, 2009
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE CONTINUED ALLOCATION OF
WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT (WIA) FUNDING FROM LOS ANGELES
COUNTY TO LA WORKS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution supporting the continued allocation
of Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funding from Los Angeles County to LA Works.
BACKGROUND
LA Works has administered workforce development programs on behalf of cities within the East
San Gabriel Valley, including the City of Azusa, for more than thirty years under funding passed
through by the County of Los Angeles. Recently, the County opted to terminate its agreement
with LA Works, which provided annual funding under the WIA on a fair share, non-competitive
basis to serve Azusa and surrounding cities. Following announcement of its intention to
terminate its WIA pass-through funding agreement, the County issued a Request for Proposals to
which LA Works responded in order to secure funds to continue their operations. As such, LA
Works has asked the City Council to adopt a resolution in support of the continued allocation of
WIA funding from LA County to LA Works.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with passing this resolution.
