Adoption of the 2013.14 Fiscal Year Budget The City Council will consider the adoption of the City's Budget for the 2013 -14 Fiscal Year, which provides for a total appropriations of $35,967,800. The ongoing operations of the General Fund budget of $18,828,300 are balanced with no surplus for the upcoming fiscal year. Consequently, a full scope of services to residents will be continued without service reductions. A five -year financial outlook workshop with the City Council was held on May 14, 2013 and a 2013 -14 budget workshop was held on May 28, 2013. Since the budget workshop on May 28th was conducted, only one correction has been made to reflect a correction to Gas Tax revenue. The STP -L funding for a capital improvement project was not included as Gas Tax revenue in the initial budget; therefore, an additional $330,000 in revenue has been included for the Gas Tax Fund. No additional financial changes have been made to the draft budget as presented at the May 28th workshop. Recommendation: That the City Council approve Resolution No. 2013 -29, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING THE ANNUAL OPERATIONAL AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGET FOR THE 2013 -14 FISCAL YEAR Rosemead City Council Meeting Minutes of June 11, 2013 Page 10 of 15 City Manager Allred reviewed the staff report.

Per the agreement, all City streets are swept at least once weekly, Monday through Friday. The existing agreement was set for a three (3) year period and is set to expire on June 30, 2013. In this agreement, the City holds the option to extend the agreement for two (2) additional years. Based on the current competitive rate and high level of services provided by the current contractor, it may be beneficial for the City to extend the agreement for the remaining two (2) years. Recommendation: That the City Council discuss the option to extend the City's street sweeping agreement. This item will be scheduled for City Council action on June 25th. Director of Public Works Marcarello reviewed the staff report. Council Member Clark asked if the contract would be brought back to Council if Athens decided to raise their rates in the future. Director of Public Works Marcarello stated that for next budget year, the rates contemplate the rates that the City is currently paying. If the City was to request proposals and scan the market, based on the survey the City may not get the same price and come back with a higher rate. C. Participation in the Preparation of an Enhanced Watershed Management Program -- Upper Los Angeles River Watershed Group The Los Angeles regional Water Quality Control Board (LARWQCB) approved and issued an updated National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) Permit effective December 28, 2012. This NPDES permit is a set of regulations, control measures, and programs aimed at preventing the pollution of storm water and urban runoff within Los Angeles County. The newly updated permit contains more stringent regulations but encourages and enables a collective approach to the NPDES issue. Rosemead City Council Meeting Minutes of June 11, 2013 Page 11 of 15 Included in the newly adopted permit is the creation of Watershed Management Plans, which are comprehensive storm water mitigation plans that are developed either individually, at a basic level, or at a more advanced level through a consortium of multiple agencies. The City of Rosemead desires to join the Upper Los Angeles River Watershed Group to complete an Enhanced Watershed Management Program, which is a comprehensive approach to addressing the storm water issue. The group, led by the City of Los Angeles (representing unincorporated areas), the County Flood Control District, and other cities, including the City of Rosemead. Such a cooperative effort represents not only the most comprehensive approach to this issue, but would also provide the City with significant cost savings over addressing it alone. Recommendation: That the City Council: 1. Approve the draft Memorandum of Understanding authorizing the City of Rosemead's participation in the development of an Enhanced Watershed Management Program with the County of Los Angeles and fourteen (14) other cities; and 2. Authorize the City Manager to submit all appropriate paperwork for participation in the program. Director of Public Works Marcarello reviewed the staff report and presented a PowerPoint presentation. Management Analyst Sean Sullivan continued with the PowerPoint presentation, which is available in the City Clerk's office for review. Director of Public Works Marcarello stated that in efforts to protect the city, should some legal implications arise from other parties, staff would like to amend the recommendation with the following verbiage to read, "unless the Los Angeles County Regional Water Quality Control Board MS4 permit is stayed or invalidated for administrative or judicial order". Council Member Clark asked if the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board has proposed any preliminary projects. Elroy Kiepke - consultant from Willdan Engineering explained that by June 28th, a watershed group had to confirm an enhanced watershed management plan, which needs to be confirmed by the Regional Board. He added that the enhanced watershed management plan was not required for every participating city. Mr. Kiepke reiterated that the project must involve installation of the best water management practice such as treatment or filtration. The project will be a supplemental best practice that one or more of the cities will do in the next 24 months. Council Member Clark referred to the draft MOU and asked if the City can back out after paying the $16,000 fee if we did not agree with what the consultant had done. Rosemead City Council Meeting Minutes of June 11, 2013 Page 12 of 15 City Attorney Richman explained that the memorandum states that the City would have 30 days to provide a written notice to all the participating cities and would have to pay for MOU cost that is incurred to develop the program. Mr. Kiepke — stated that if the City chose to exercise the termination clause, the City would have the option to place an individual watershed management plan within 12 months or revert to be compliant with the permit. Director of Public Works Marcarello added that staff recommends the option to enter in a cooperative agreement to share the cost with other cities. Management Analyst Sullivan explained the City would be covering certain new bases with the new permit by participating in the plan. The City is still liable on regulations that are already imposed, such as TMDL's that are already prescribed. Council Member Steven Ly made a motion, seconded by Mayor Polly Low to approve the Memorandum of Understanding authorizing the City of Rosemead's participation in the development of an Enhanced Watershed Management Program with the County of Los Angeles; Authorize the City Manager to submit all appropriate paperwork with amended verbiage.
