City Council from page 2
• Paying the unfunded portion of El Segundo’s
retirement obligations in a lump sum
each year instead of making monthly payments.
• To set up a pension trust fund to cover
unexpected new costs resulting from lowerthan
anticipated investment earnings or
changes in CalPERS funding formula for
cities, counties, and local government entities.
The pension trust holds $5 million now,
and it could grow to $10 million or higher
in coming years, the city manager recounted.
Once TopGolf reopens the city’s golf course
and driving range on Pacific Coast Highway,
60 percent or more of the revenues will go
toward paying down any remaining unfunded
liability with CalPERS or any new debts
to the fund that are always possible. Once
unfunded pension costs are eliminated, the
golf property money would shift to building
the pension trust fund, the council decided.
In Other Council Action:
• El Segundo city leaders officially observed
Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage
Month, the Arbor Day Foundation Tree City,
and Public Works Week.
• Heard from Chairman Shad McFadden
about the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
Committee’s timetable for issuing findings
and recommendations for making El Segundo
a place where all residents feel safe
and welcome. DEI members are expected to
issue their first findings in early 2022. Since
September, the nine-member DEI has been
meeting, and McFadden reported the members
- all chosen by the City Council - have had
“hard conversations” in their meetings about
the hot-button issues, including race relations
and the police. While some people in the community
say that racism no longer exists in El
Segundo, the DEI members themselves think
differently. “We on the DEI Committee think
that’s not true,” McFadden told the council
Tuesday night. The advisory panel plans to
conduct a communitywide survey as part of
the DEI’s fact-finding mission.
• OK’d an ordinance change to allow
non-commercial beekeeping on single-family
lots in the city. Beehives must be registered
with the Los Angeles County Agricultural
Commissioner to comply with El Segundo’s
relaxed nuisance ordinance.
• Heard a proposal to forbid tenants or
property owners from placing unwanted
items out by the curb and halt the practice of
putting garbage cans in front of neighboring
properties. The item for council consideration
was drafted to address abandoned items left
in the public areas and around apartment
buildings by tenants who move out. Public
Works Director Elias Sassoon said the
practice of giving away furniture, toys, and
household items by placing them at the curb
with a “Free” sign would be prohibited if the
council OKs the change.
• Agreed to remove parallel parking stalls
on El Segundo Boulevard between Main and
Sheldon streets. It was decided the vehicles
parked along the boulevard create a traffic
danger for drivers trying to turn onto El
Segundo from side streets. The road will
be restriped and the pylons removed. Public
Works will develop a pilot parking project for
the area, which could convert some two-way
streets in Smoky Hollow to one-way lanes.
Drivers routinely exceed the posted 35 mph
speed limit, traveling at 42 mph on average,
on that section of El Segundo Boulevard,
Public Works Director Elias Sassoon added.
• Renewed the agreement with Beach Cities
Transit for the operation of Line 109 for
another year.
City Manager Mitnick announced the arrival
of a new restaurant in the downtown area.
Mama D’s Italian Kitchen, which closed its
Manhattan Beach location in 2018, will open
on Richmond Street. Mama D’s has served
traditional Italian food in the South Bay for
three decades. •
