PURPOSE OF REQUEST
To continue receiving traffic collision data electronically directly from the CHP headquarters in Sacramento.
BACKGROUND (include internal/external issues that may exist)
The CHP provides traffic enforcement services and responds to traffic collisions on unincorporated County roadways. When a collision occurs, the CHP completes a Traffic Collision Report (TCR). Currently, Public Works receives TCRs directly from each of the nine CHP offices that serve the unincorporated communities. On August 17, 2017, the CHP requested Public Works to enter into an MMOU/A and Interconnection Security Agreement between Los Angeles County and the CHP, which would allow Public Works to electronically receive traffic collision data from CHP Headquarters in Sacramento in preference of the CHP area offices (All Districts). The new process will enhance the efficiency and reliability of receiving traffic collision data. These TCRs are used to assist in recommending traffic safety enhancements on unincorporated County roadways.

TRANSPORTATION CORE SERVICE AREA APPROVE THE MASTER MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING/AGREEMENT
AND INTERCONNECTION SECURITY AGREEMENT BETWEEN LOS ANGELES COUNTY AND THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL
(ALL SUPERVISORIAL DISTRICTS) (3 VOTES)
CIO RECOMMENDATION: APPROVE (X)
SUBJECT Public Works is seeking Board approval to authorize the Director of Public Works or his designee to execute a Master Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement and Interconnection Security Agreement between Los Angeles County and the California Highway Patrol to electronically receive traffic collision data for unincorporated County roadways. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE BOARD:
1. Find this Master Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement and Interconnection Security Agreement are not a project under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.
2. Approve and authorize the Director of Public Works or his designee to execute a Master Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement and Interconnection Security Agreement with the California Highway Patrol to electronically receive traffic collision data for unincorporated County roadways.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION
The purpose of the recommended action is to execute a Master Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement (MMOU/A) and Interconnection Security Agreement (ISA) with the California Highway Patrol (CHP) for Los Angeles County Public Works to electronically receive traffic collision data from the CHP. Under the MMOU/A, Public Works will receive traffic collision data from a secure server made available by the CHP. The data will assist Public Works in analyzing collision data and developing strategies to reduce traffic-related injuries and fatalities. Implementation of Strategic Plan Goals The County Strategic Plan directs the provision of Strategy lIl.2.1, Enhance Information Technology Platforms to Securely Share and Exchange Data. Receiving traffic collision data electronically from CHP will expedite the transfer and improve the quality and reliability of the data. FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING There will be no impact to the County General Fund. FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS The CHP provides traffic enforcement services and responds to traffic collisions on unincorporated County roadways. When a collision occurs, the CHP completes a Traffic Collision Report. Currently, Public Works receives traffic collision reports directly from each of the nine CHP area offices that serve the County unincorporated communities. The CHP, in its capacity as the custodian of Traffic Collision Reports for County unincorporated communities, requested Public Works to enter into an agreement with CHP, which would allow Public Works to receive traffic collision data from CHP headquarters in Sacramento in preference of the CHP area offices. The new process will enhance the efficiency and reliability of receiving traffic collision data. The MMOU/A establishes a management agreement between CHP and Los Angeles County Public Works regarding the development, management, operation, and security of interconnections to electronically exchange data between the CHP and County. The MMOU/A will be in effect for 5 years from the date on the signed MMOU/A document. The ISA will be issued every 3 years or whenever any significant changes have been made to any of the interconnected systems. The MMOU/A and ISA have been reviewed and approved as to form by County Counsel. The MMOU/A and ISA are not enclosed since they contain confidential information and are exempt from public release under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552).
The Chief Information Officer (CIO) has reviewed this request and recommends approval. It determined that the recommended actions do not constitute a technology related action and no formal CIO Analysis is required. Also, the County’s Chief Information Security Officer reviewed the ISA and has no information security concerns. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION The proposed action is not a project pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act because it is an activity that is excluded from the definition of a project by Section 15378(b) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. This proposed activity is an administrative activity of government, which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment. IMPACT ON CURRENT SERVICES (OR PROJECTS) There will be no negative impact on current County services or projects during the performance of the services under the agreement. CONCLUSION Please return one adopted copy of the Board letter to Public Works, Transportation Planning and Programs Division. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by: MARK PESTRELLA WILLIAM S.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this MMOU/A is to establish a management agreement between the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and the County of Los Angeles (COUNTY), regarding the development, management, operation, and security of interconnections to electronically exchange data between the CHP and the COUNTY. This agreement will govern the relationship between the CHP and the COUNTY.
AUTHORITY The governing authority for this agreement is 18 U.S.C. 2721 et seq., (commonly known as the Driver Privacy Protection Act), and other applicable federal laws, as appropriate. The Driver Privacy Protection Act provides for the release of driver information sought by the COUNTY in connection with its review of unincorporated COUNTY roadways to improve traffic safety.
BACKGROUND Los Angeles COUNTY Public Works requires an accurate account of traffic collisions that occur within the unincorporated communities of the COUNTY. The data the COUNTY will receive from the CHP will be entered into the COUNTY’s Traffic Collision database. The COUNTY seeks collision data to analyze the COUNTY roadways for traffic controls/measures. The data may assist Public Works in identifying traffic safety enhancements to reduce future occurrences of collisions, injuries, and deaths on unincorporated COUNTY roadways.
The COUNTY seeks the cooperation of the CHP to participate in the electronic exchange of data as described within an Interconnection Security Agreement (ISA) for each system/dataset the COUNTY has requested from the CHP. The parties enter into this MMOU/A to expedite the processing of data critical to the COUNTY activities in furtherance of motor vehicle and highway safety.
COMMUNICATIONS Frequent formal communications are essential to ensure the successful management and operation of the established interconnections. The parties agree to maintain open lines of communications between designated staff at both the managerial and technical levels.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
1.0 PURPOSE Interconnection Security Agreements (ISA) are required by federal, state, local, and/or departmental policy and establishes individual and organizational security responsibilities for the protection and handling of data provided from the California Highway Patrol, hereinafter CHP, and the County of Los Angeles, hereinafter COUNTY. Any specific requirements of both signatory organizations are also included.
Security Network Connectivity Policy Each organization shall adhere to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Special Publications (SP) listed below and detailed within this ISA.
- NIST SP 800-53, Security and Privacy Controls for Federal Information Systems, provides guidelines for selecting and specifying security controls for information systems supporting the executive agencies of the federal government. The guidelines apply to all components of information systems that process, store, or transmit data in this ISA.
- NIST SP 800-47, Security Guide for Interconnecting Information Technology Systems, provides guidance in preparing and establishing connectivity between networks.
- NIST SP 800-41, Guidelines on Firewalls and Firewall Policy, provides practical guidance on developing firewall policies and selecting, configuring, testing, deploying, and managing firewalls.
- NIST SP 800-123, Guide to General Server Security, provides guidance in securing and maintaining the security of servers which provide services over network communications as a main function.
a. Each organization shall ensure appropriate identification and authentication controls, audit logging, and access controls are implemented on every network component.
b. Each organization shall ensure interconnections between their respective organization and non-organization information systems shall be established only through controlled interfaces and via approved service providers. The controlled interfaces shall be accredited at the highest security level of information on the network. Connections with other organizations shall be documented based on interagency agreements, memoranda of understanding, service level agreements and/or ISAs signed by the appropriate authorizing official (AO) and the Chief Information Officer (CIO). The CIO shall approve all ISAs between organization and non-organization information systems with an ISA including component interconnection documents for
CONFIDENTIAL – EXEMPT (Government Code § 6254.19) FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
ISA between CHP California Collision Reporting System and
County of Los Angeles Public Works
Information Technology Systems & Applications Traffic Collision Database (TCD)
Ver. [1] Jan. 28, 20 B-2
FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY
each connection. The CIO shall ensure that connections with other entities are properly documented.
c. Either organization may complete a Master Memorandum of Understanding/Agreement (MMOU/A). Each associated interconnection to a MMOU/A shall be required to have a separate ISA. A single ISA may be used for multiple connections provided that the security accreditation is the same for all connections covered by that ISA.
d. Interconnections between organizations shall require a new or revised ISA whenever there is a difference in the security categorizations for confidentiality, integrity, and availability between the systems.
e. The appropriate Change Control Board shall ensure that documentation associated with an approved change to an information system is updated to reflect the appropriate baseline.
f. The ISAs shall be reissued every three (3) years or whenever any significant changes have been made to any of the interconnected systems.
g. The ISAs shall be reviewed and updated, as needed, as a part of the annual self-assessment.
ISA Requirements for Types of System Interconnections System interconnections may be characterized as either direct or networked. Direct connections are single purpose point-to-point connections that support only the two connected systems. Directly connected systems do not rely on another network for their connectivity or security and are physically and electronically isolated from other networks and systems. Networked systems1 connect via an intervening network that exists as a general support system, not a single-purpose connection. Systems that are connected via an encrypted tunnel are considered networked systems. The interconnection between the CHP CCRS and the COUNTY TCD is a network connection over the internet.
Scope This ISA addresses the interconnection of the CHP CCRS and the COUNTY’s TCD. Additionally, this ISA covers application and/or control data traversing the networks.
1 For networked United States (U.S.) Government systems, the ISA must include the owner and AO of the network as well as the owners of the applicable systems.

2.0 INTERCONNECTION JUSTIFICATION The requirements for an interconnection between two systems is for the express purpose of exchanging collision-related data between the CHP CCRS owned and operated by CHP, and COUNTY TCD owned by COUNTY. The COUNTY TCD requires the use of the CHP CCRS as a transport system for wide area network services and interconnectivity to the CHP infrastructure. The expected benefit is to expedite the transfer and processing of data between organizations. The CHP CCRS is a data exchange used to provide access to records collected by the CHP.
3.0 SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS This section describes the security mechanisms in place to secure the connections between both systems. It outlines the security considerations and which organization is responsible for each. In some cases, both organizations will share the security responsibility.
General Information/Data Description The purpose of the interconnection between the CHP CCRS and the COUNTY’s TCD is to provide collision information along unincorporated Los Angeles County roadways to COUNTY.

NOTIFICATION OF INTENT OF SOLE SOURCE EXTENSION ON PRINT OPTIMIZATION AND RELATED SERVICES CONTRACT #77909 WITH XEROX CORPORATION
This is to advise the Board of the Internal Services Department’s (ISD) intent to negotiate an extension of the existing ISD contract with Xerox Corporation (Xerox) to continue providing Print Optimization and Related Services (PORS) to County departments.
BACKGROUND
On January 15, 2013, the Board of Supervisors (Board) awarded the PORS contract to Xerox to provide managed print services to County departments. The managed print services program optimizes office printing while reducing cost to County departments by standardizing equipment, measuring usage and managing costs. The current contract will expire on July 31, 2020.
On September 16, 2019, ISD released a Request for Statement of Qualifications for Managed Print Services 2.0. The deadline to submit a Statement of Qualifications was on October 30, 2019. In order to provide ISD with the time necessary to complete the evaluation process and testing phase, an extension to the current contract is being requested on a sole source basis. Additionally, an extension to the contract will allow sufficient time for County departments to transition managed print services to the new service contracts.
Each Supervisor December 24, 2019 Page 2
JUSTIFICATION
An extension to the subject contract is imperative to allow ISD sufficient time to finalize the testing phase of the solicitation which will provide County departments with the most optimized managed print services under the new contracts. Further, the extension of the current contract will ensure that County departments continue receiving managed print services without a gap in services and successfully and seamlessly transition services to the new contracts. The term of the extension will be finalized during the negotiation process with Xerox.
Board Policy No. 5.100 requires written notice of a department’s intent to enter into sole source negotiations for the extension of a Board approved contract at least six months prior to the contract’s expiration date. The subject contract expires on July 31, 2020, therefore this notice is timely.
CONCLUSION
Unless otherwise instructed by your Board, ISD will proceed with negotiations of the contract extension with Xerox. ISD will work closely with both County Counsel and the Chief Executive Office during the contracting process.

NOTIFICATION OF INTENT TO ENTER INTO SOLE SOURCE NEGOTATIONS AND EXTEND CONTRACT 76501 WITH AT&T GLOBAL SERVICES FOR TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES
This is to advise your Board of the Internal Services Department’s (ISD) intent to negotiate an extension of the existing ISD contract with SBC Global Services, d.b.a. AT&T Global Services (AT&T) to continue providing countywide telecommunications services.
BACKGROUND
On May 2, 2008, the Board of Supervisors (Board) awarded the telecommunications services contract to AT&T. Under the existing contract, AT&T provides Local and Long-Distance Telecommunications and Managed Internet Protocol (IP) Services Countywide. The current contract will expire on May 1, 2020.
On July 9, 2018, ISD released a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) for Telecommunication Services for replacement services provided under the subject contract. On August 13, 2019, the Board authorized ISD to award and execute Master Agreements for the provision of Telecommunication Services with vendors as they become qualified effective upon Board approval, for an initial term of five years, with two additional one-year extensions, for a maximum total Master Agreement (MA) term of seven years.
While the existing contract with AT&T will expire on May 1, 2020, there are critical services provided under this contract which provides the Registrar-Recorder’s Voter Center Network Project and Elections Security Program with critical election-related information to the constituents of Los Angeles County and cybersecurity services needed to ensure that any and all risks to the elections are properly mitigated.
Each Supervisor December 24, 2019 Page 2
JUSTIFICATION
ISD conducted an initial review and assessment of the current AT&T contract. Further, as a part of that review, ISD conducted a Gap Analysis to ensure proper closure of the projects under this contract. During this analysis, ISD identified that the Registrar-Recorder’s Voter Center Network Project necessitates an extension of the current AT&T contract in order to continue providing the Registrar-Recorder with Consulting Support; Data Network Services; Secure Architecture Design; Governance, Risk, and Compliance; Secure Architecture Design and Implementation; Cybersecurity Operations Center; Engagement Management and Quality Assurance services for the March 2020 Primary Election and continuation of services are also needed to avoid risk to the Registrar-Recorder’s infrastructure for the November 2020 General Election.
Board Policy No. 5.100 requires written notice of a department’s intent to enter into sole source negotiations for the extension of a Board approved contract at least six months prior to the contract’s expiration date. The subject contract will expire on May 1, 2020, and although this notice is not timely, it will provide the department with sufficient time to finalize negotiations and execute the recommended contract extension with AT&T to provide the Registrar-Recorder and County departments with continued telecommunication services.
The extension of the current contract is imperative to enable ISD to continue providing telecommunication services to the Registrar-Recorder and various County departments.
The term of the extension will be finalized during the negotiation process with AT&T.
CONCLUSION
Unless otherwise instructed by your Board, ISD will proceed with negotiations of the contract extension with AT&T. ISD will work closely with both County Counsel and the Chief Executive Office during the contracting process.
If you have any questions or require additional information please contact Michael Owh, General Manager of Purchasing and Contract Services at (323) 267-2109, via email [email protected] or your staff may contact Christie Carr at (323) 267-3101, via email [email protected].

COST & FUNDING Total cost: TBD
Funding source: Tobacco Settlement Revenues
TERMS (if applicable): TBD
Explanation:
PURPOSE OF REQUEST
The Treasurer and Tax Collector (the “Treasurer”) is requesting that the Board of Supervisors (the “Board”) consent to the issuance and sale by the California County Tobacco Securitization Agency (the “Agency”) of not to exceed $400 million in initial principal amount of Tobacco Settlement Bonds (Los Angeles County Securitization Corporation), Series 2020 (the “Refunding Bonds”).
BACKGROUND (include internal/external issues that may exist)
On November 23, 1998, the attorneys general of 46 states, including the State of California (collectively the “Plaintiffs”), reached agreement with the then four largest United States tobacco manufacturers (the “Participating Manufacturers”) to resolve cigarette smoking-related litigation. The resulting Master Settlement Agreement (the “MSA”) required the Participating Manufacturers to make annual payments in perpetuity, known as tobacco settlement revenues (TSRs), to the Plaintiffs in exchange for the release of all past and present smoking-related claims, and the continuing release of future smoking-related claims. The amount of TSRs is directly correlated to smoking participation rates; therefore, the projected decline of smoking participation rates has resulted in a decline of TSR payments.
In 2006, the County joined the California County Tobacco Securitization Agency (Agency), a joint powers authority, who issued $319.8 million in Tobacco Settlement Asset-Backed Bonds (2006 Bonds) on behalf of the County and loaned the proceeds to the Los Angeles County Securitization Corporation (Corporation), a California nonprofit public benefit corporation. With the bond proceeds, the Corporation purchased 25.9% interest in the County’s TSRs, and the County used the proceeds to fund a portion of the LAC+USC Medical Center Replacement Project.
The proposed issuance of the Refunding Bonds will result in a $118 million or 30% present value savings, which shortens the anticipated final maturity of the 2006 Bonds by approximately 38 years and enables the County to recover the 25.9% of TSRs pledged as security much earlier than currently projected.

Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 2 PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION Approval of the above recommendations will authorize the issuance and sale of the Refunding Bonds by the Agency and the execution and delivery of all related documents. The proceeds from the sale of the Refunding Bonds will be used to refund approximately $398.6 million of the outstanding 2006 Bonds issued by the Agency on February 8, 2006, that were used to finance a portion of the construction costs related to the LAC+USC Medical Center Replacement Facility. On November 23, 1998, the attorneys general of 46 states (including the State of California), the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa and the Territory of the Northern Marianas (collectively the “Plaintiffs”) reached agreement with the then four largest United States tobacco manufacturers (the “Participating Manufacturers”) to resolve cigarette smoking-related litigation. The resulting Master Settlement Agreement (the “MSA”) required the Participating Manufacturers to make annual payments in perpetuity to the Plaintiffs in exchange for the release of all past and present smoking-related claims, and the continuing release of future smoking-related claims. To facilitate the sale of the 2006 Bonds, the County joined the Agency, a joint exercise of powers authority formed by the counties of Stanislaus, Merced, Kern, Sonoma, Marin, Fresno, Placer and Alameda, pursuant to the Third Amendment of the Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement dated as of January 24, 2006. Pursuant to the California Government Code, the Agency is authorized to issue bonds for financing capital improvements and for any other purposes allowed thereunder. In February 2006, the Agency issued the 2006 Bonds on behalf of the County in a par amount of $319.8 million, and loaned the proceeds to the Los Angeles County Securitization Corporation, a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (the “Corporation”), pursuant to a Loan Agreement by and between the Agency and the Corporation. The Corporation used the proceeds of the loan to purchase 25.9% of the County's interest in future TSRs. Debt service on the 2006 Bonds is secured by loan repayments from the Corporation to the Agency, which is in turn secured by the Corporation’s purchase of the 25.9% interest in the County's TSRs. The issuance of the Refunding Bonds will result in a significant reduction in the interest cost from the 2006 Bonds. The lower interest cost of the Refunding Bonds will enable the County to regain access to the 25.9% of tobacco settlement revenues (the “TSRs”), which are currently pledged as security for the repayment of the 2006 Bonds, much earlier than currently projected. The 25.9% portion of the County’s TSRs will continue to be pledged as security for the Refunding Bonds. According to a recent cigarette consumption report published by IHS Global Inc. (“IHS Global”), a globally recognized economic research firm with expertise in the tobacco securitization bond market, U.S. cigarette consumption is projected to continue declining at
DRAF
T
Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 3 a faster rate compared to the original projections for the 2006 Bonds. IHS Global is the standard source for economic research and analysis of the tobacco market that is used by public agencies and market participants to evaluate tobacco bond transactions and the overall tobacco market. Based on the recent IHS Global report, which was prepared in conjunction with the Refunding Bonds, the continued decline in smoking participation rates will result in a reduction in the future TSRs received by the County and extend the repayment of the 2006 Bonds by 56 years. Based on current market conditions and the decline in TSRs as projected in the current IHS Global forecast, the 2006 Bonds, which were originally expected to be fully repaid by 2030, will not be repaid until 2086. By taking advantage of favorable market conditions, including historically low interest rates and strong market demand for tobacco bonds, the County has an opportunity to achieve significant interest cost savings with the Refunding Bonds, and mitigate the risk of future default if the TSRs continue to decline at a faster rate than currently projected by IHS Global. Based on current market conditions, the Refunding Bonds would achieve present value savings of approximately $118 million or 30%. The lower interest cost of the Refunding Bonds will shorten the anticipated final maturity of the 2006 Bonds by approximately 38 years, such that the 2006 Bonds may be fully repaid by 2048 instead of by 2086. This will allow the County to recover the 25.9% of TSRs pledged as security for the Refunding Bonds much earlier than currently projected. To illustrate the magnitude of the annual revenue stream related to the TSRs, in Fiscal Year 2018-19, the County’s share of the TSRs was approximately $100.7 million, of which $26.1 million was allocated to pay debt service on the 2006 Bonds. Implementation of Strategic Plan Goals This action supports the County’s Strategic Plan Goal #III.3: Pursue Operational Effectiveness, Fiscal Responsibility, and Accountability by providing a cost-effective source of financing. FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING There is no fiscal impact to the County General Fund. The Refunding Bonds will be repaid from the annual TSRs received by the County pursuant to the Master Settlement Agreement, as described below. FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS The Refunding Bonds will be issued at a true interest cost not to exceed five percent (5%) per annum. The maximum initial principal amount of the Refunding Bonds will not exceed $400 million, with the proceeds received by the County used to retire the 2006 Bonds, pay costs of issuance and to fund debt service reserves. The final maturity of the Refunding Bonds is projected to be June 1, 2048, but will be determined at pricing.

Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 4 Due to the technical complexities involved with issuing tobacco securitization bonds and to secure the lowest possible borrowing costs, the Treasurer is recommending a negotiated sale of the Refunding Bonds. Subsequent to a modified bid request to the County Underwriter Pool, the Treasurer selected Jefferies LLC and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. to be the senior managing underwriter and co-senior managing underwriter, respectively, for the sale of the Refunding Bonds. Additional co-managers from the Underwriter Pool will be selected closer to the sale date. Public Resources Advisory Group was selected from the Board-approved pool of municipal advisors to serve as the municipal advisor. Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP was selected by County Counsel to serve as bond counsel, with Hawkins Delafield & Wood LLP as disclosure counsel. IMPACT ON CURRENT SERVICES (OR PROJECTS) There is no impact on current services. CONCLUSION Upon approval of the attached Resolution, it is requested that the Executive Officer of the Board return two originally executed copies to the Public Finance Office of the Treasurer.

DEPARTMENT Department of Mental Health (DMH)
SUBJECT Approve the proposed eight-year leases for approximately 13,347 square feet of office space and 53 on-site parking spaces at 4510 East Pacific Coast Highway, Long Beach
PROGRAM
SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT
Yes No If Yes, please explain why:
DEADLINES/ TIME CONSTRAINTS
Existing lease for DMH is currently on month-to-month holdover since December 31, 2018.
COST & FUNDING Total cost: $5,535,587 total lease rental costs including parking and tenant improvement costs.
Funding source: The rental costs for DMH will be funded by Mental Health Services Act Funds and other State and Federal funding sources.
TERMS (if applicable): The proposed base rent is subject to annual increases of 4 percent per annum as a result of the high demand for office space. The leases include a cancellation provision that allows the County to terminate the proposed lease at 60 months with 270 days’ prior written notice. The proposed leases contain a holdover provision, wherein there is a monthly holdover fee of 25% of the then existing base rent for the first twelve months following expiration of the lease term. Thereafter, the monthly holdover fee shall be 50% of the base rent at the time of the lease expiration. The County’s holdover tenancy may be terminated upon 30 days’ notice from the Landlord. Explanation: Funding for the proposed option is included in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 Rent Expense budget and will be billed back to DMH.
CO-WORK SPACE ASSESSMENT
Extensive research has been completed to evaluate the option of utilizing co-working as an alternative site for DMH at 4510 East Pacific Coast Highway, Long Beach. We looked at WeWork, Regus, Easy Offices, Instant Offices (3 locations in Long Beach), Ironfire, Work Evolution and We Labs, Inc, and all but two of the locations are in Downtown Long Beach (DTLB) which is over 5 miles away. Instant Offices offers two co-working premises with Greater Long Beach not in DTLB, but neither can accommodate the size of the DMH requirement (they are both offering 400-600 square foot units adjacent to Long Beach airport). Therefore, co-work space is not a viable alternative.
PURPOSE OF REQUEST
Approval of the recommended action will authorize and continue to adequately provide the necessary office space for DMH.
BACKGROUND (include internal/external issues that may exist)
The County has leased these premises at 4510 East Pacific Coast Highway, Long Beach since November 2010. DMH currently uses the premises for its Long Beach Asian Pacific Islander Family Mental Health Center. This facility is a directly operated clinic which provides outpatient services, including individual, group and family psychotherapy, case management and medication services to adults, children and families.

3. Authorize the Chief Executive Officer, or her designee, to reimburse the Landlord, for additional tenant improvements (TI) up to $1,601,640, if paid in a lump sum, or up to $1,902,865 if amortized at 7 percent per annum over five years, pertaining to the leased space for DMH referenced above. The total lease costs payable to the Landlord would not exceed $5,535,587 over the eight-year term, which is comprised of the $ 3,320,530 base rental cost, estimated $312,192 parking cost, and the $1,902,865 maximum County’s TI contribution.
4. Authorize the Director of DMH to contract with and direct the Internal Services
Department, in coordination with the Chief Executive Officer, or her designee, for the acquisition and installation of telephone, data, and low-voltage systems and vendor installation (Low Voltage) at a total cost not to exceed $127,500, which is based on the Low Voltage cost if fully expended The cost for the Low Voltage will be paid in a lump sum payment. The cost for the Low Voltage is in addition to the rental costs and County’s TI contribution payable to the Landlord.
5. Authorize and direct the Chief Executive Officer, or her designee, to execute any
other ancillary documentation necessary to effectuate the terms of the proposed lease and to take other actions necessary and appropriate to implement and effectuate the terms of the proposed lease, including, without limitation, exercising early termination rights and the right of first offer to lease additional premises. The proposed lease will become effective upon approval by the Board.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION Since November 2010, the DMH has occupied 10,344 square feet of office space at 4510 E. Pacific Coast Highway, Long Beach. DMH currently uses the premises for its Long Beach Asian Pacific Islander Family Mental Health Center. This facility is a directly operated clinic in the service area, which provides mental health outpatient services, including individual, group, and family psychotherapy, case management, and medication services to adults, children, and families. These programs provide a variety of administration and clinical services. The lease expired on October 31, 2017 and has been on a month-to-month holdover basis. Starting on January 1, 2018, the existing lease has been subject to a monthly holdover fee of 25 percent of the prevailing monthly base rent. The proposed lease will continue to provide DMH with its current office and clinical space for its ongoing operations. However, due to the expansion of these services, this lease will provide an additional 3,003 square feet of office and clinical space to alleviate the current overcrowded conditions and to allow for growth in services and programs. With the expansion space, the proposed premises will accommodate 30 employees and visitors with much needed adjacent parking.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 3, 2020 Page 3 The Landlord will provide $200,205 in base TI allowance and up to $1,601,640 in additional TI dollars, if necessary, to be reimbursed by the County, to suit the needs of DMH and its programs. The existing area with the expansion area will adequately meet the space needs of DMH and is accessible to public transportation routes. Implementation of Strategic Plan Goals The Countywide Strategic Plan Goal 3 - “Realize Tomorrow’s Government Today” -provides that our increasingly dynamic, and complex environment, challenges our collective abilities to respond to public needs and expectations. We want to be an innovative, flexible, effective, and transparent partner focused on advancing the common good. The proposed lease will support this goal by allowing DMH and its programs to continue its operations without interruption of service. The proposed lease is in conformance with the Asset Management Principles as outlined in Attachment A. FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING The proposed lease will have the following financial impact:
The costs for Low Voltage will be paid by DMH. There is sufficient appropriation in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 Rent Expense Budget to cover the first-year costs, which will then be billed to DMH. DMH has sufficient appropriation in DMH’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 operating budget to cover these costs for the first year. Beginning with FY 2020-21, ongoing funding for the proposed lease will be part of the budget for DMH. These costs are 100 percent funded by Mental Health Services Act Funds and other State and Federal funding sources. FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS In addition to the terms described herein, the proposed lease includes the following provisions:
− The proposed lease is on a gross basis whereby the Landlord will be responsible for all operating and maintenance costs associated with the facility.
- The square footage of the proposed lease premises has increased slightly due to
the Landlord remeasuring of the office space per current industry standards. − The maximum first-year base rental cost is $360,369 or $27.00 annually per
square foot, with annual rental adjustments of 4 percent per annum.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 3, 2020 Page 4
- Total parking costs are estimated to be $39,024 per year based on DMH’s right to purchase 47 stalls at prevailing rates (currently $60 per stall per month) and a right to purchase 6 additional stalls at 120 percent of prevailing rates (currently $72 per stall per month).
− The Landlord will provide a non-reimbursable base TI allowance of $200,205 or $15 per square foot, included in the lease.
− The Landlord will provide additional reimbursable TI dollars in the amount up to $1,601,640 or $120 per square foot, which the County may reimburse in a lump sum payment or $1,902,865 if amortized over a five-year period at 7 percent per annum.
− The County will pay up to $127,500 for the lump sum cost of the Low Voltage needed for the expansion space.
− The aggregate cost of the proposed lease over the eight-year term, including rent expense, parking, and TI reimbursement, if fully utilized, and low voltage costs would be approximately $5,663,087. Attachment B provides an overview of the total proposed lease costs.
− A cancellation provision that allows the County to terminate the proposed lease at
60 months with 9 months prior written notice.
− The proposed lease contains a holdover provision, which includes in addition to the monthly rent, a monthly holdover fee of 25 percent of the base rent at the time of lease expiration, for the first twelve months of holdover. Thereafter, the monthly holdover fee shall be 50 percent of the base rent at the time of the lease expiration. The County’s holdover tenancy may be terminated upon 30 days’ notice from the Landlord.
− The proposed lease gives the County a right of first offer to lease additional contiguous space on the sixth floor of the building. If Landlord intends to offer such space or receives a third party offer to lease such space, Landlord shall give the County first rights to match the proposed rental rate and lease the space, which right County must exercise within 30 days from Landlord’s notice.
− The proposed lease renewal will be effective upon approval by the Board.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 3, 2020 Page 5 The Chief Executive Office (CEO), through its broker representative, CBRE, conducted a survey within the project area to determine the availability of comparable office space options. CBRE was unable to identify any sites in the survey area that could accommodate this requirement more economically. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE has established that the average annual rental range for similar space is between $19.44 and $33.00 dollars per square foot on a full-service gross basis (with a base year for operating expense increases). In comparison, the base rental rate of $27.00 per square foot per year, gross (no operating expenses), for the proposed lease is within market range for the area. Research has been completed to evaluate the option of utilizing co-working as an alternative location for this Mental Health program. There are a number of co-working providers in greater Long Beach, but all but two of the locations are in downtown Long Beach which is over 6 miles away and in a more costly part of the city for rent and parking charges. The other two locations cannot accommodate the size and do not allow for clinical use. Therefore, co-work locations were not pursued. Attachment C shows County-owned or leased facilities in the proximity of the service area, and there are no suitable County-owned or leased facilities available for the program. The Department of Public Works has inspected the facility and found it seismically suitable for County occupancy. Construction of any TIs will be completed in compliance with relevant building and construction codes, laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act. A notification letter to the City of Long Beach has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351. County Counsel has reviewed the attached proposed lease and has approved it as to form. The proposed lease will continue to provide an appropriate location for the applicable programs which is consistent with the County’s Facility Location Policy, as adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012, as outlined in Attachment D. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION The proposed lease is exempt from CEQA. The proposed lease, which replaces the existing lease space with minor TIs within an existing building, is within a class of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which meets the criteria set forth in Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Guidelines) and Class 1 of the County's Environmental Document Reporting Procedures and Guidelines, Appendix G. In addition, based on the proposed lease records, it will comply with all applicable regulations, and there are no cumulative impacts, unusual circumstances, damage to scenic highways, listing on hazardous waste site lists compiled, pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5, or indications that it may cause
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 3, 2020 Page 6 a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource that would make the exemption inapplicable. Upon the Board's approval of the recommended actions, a Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk in accordance with Section 21152 of the California Public Resources Code. IMPACT ON CURENT SERVICES (OR PROJECTS The proposed lease will adequately provide the necessary office space for this County requirement. The effected department(s) concur with the proposed recommendation. CONCLUSION It is requested that the Executive Office, Board of Supervisors return one certified copy of the Minute Order, and the adopted stamped board letter to the CEO, Real Estate Division, at 320 West Temple Street, 7th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90012 for further processing.

Proposed lease renewal: Eight-year Lease agreement for the Department of Mental Health – 4510 E. Pacific Coast Highway, Long Beach – Fourth Supervisorial District. A. Establish Service Function Category – Regional and local public service function.
B. Determination of the Service Area – The proposed lease will provide an eight-year
lease extension & expansion for the existing DMH program within Service Planning Area 8.
C. Apply Location Selection Criteria to Service Area Data
• Need for proximity to service area and population: Continuing need for existing operation in the Long Beach region in support of Asian Pacific Islander mental health programs.
• Need for proximity to existing County facilities: Close to other County departments.
• Need for proximity to Greater Long Beach: The current site provides a central location, just east of Downtown Long Beach and is accessible to public transportation.
• Economic Development Potential: N/A
• Proximity to public transportation: The location is adequately served by local transit including a nearby Metro station.
• Availability of affordable housing for County employees: The surrounding area
provides for affordable housing and rental opportunities.
• Use of historic buildings: N/A
• Availability and compatibility of existing buildings: There are no alternative existing County buildings available to meet the Department’s needs.
• Compatibility with local land use plans: The site is currently zoned commercial, and the current use is consistent with the building’s use and zoning and not in conflict with the goals and policies of the City of Long Beach. A notification letter has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351.
• Estimated acquisition/construction and ongoing operational costs: The first-year
maximum costs associated with the proposed lease are $779,966, which includes base rent of $360,369, estimated parking costs of $39,024, and up to $380,573 in additional TI costs. Rental costs for DMH are paid via grant funding, health fees and net County cost.
D. Analyze results and identify location alternatives
Based upon the space and service needs of DMH, CBRE surveyed the immediate area to determine the availability of comparable and more economical site alternatives. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE has established that the average annual rental range for similar space is between $19.44 and $33.00 dollars per square foot on a full-service gross basis. In comparison, the base rental rate of $27.00 per square foot per year, gross, for the proposed lease is within market range for the area.
E. Determine benefits and drawbacks of each alternative based upon functional needs, service area, cost and other Location Selection Criteria The existing facility provides proper accommodations for DMH within the indicated service area. The proposed lease is in conformance with the Asset Management Principles as outlined in Attachment A. The existing services provided by DMH within the existing facility will continue to provide an appropriate location, which is consistent with the County’s Facility Location Policy, adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012.

effectuate the terms of the proposed leases, including, without limitation, exercising early termination rights, and the right of first offer to lease additional space. The proposed leases will become effective upon approval by the Board.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION The World Trade Center (WTC) building located at 350 South Figueroa Street, Los Angeles, provides necessary office space for various County departments, including DHS and the Auditor, that have been in operation at WTC since November 2008. The lease expired on October 31, 2018 and has been on a month-to-month holdover basis, without a holdover fee, pending renewal of the proposed lease. DHS will continue to house office space for the its Ambulatory Care Network (ACN) in Suite 990, as well as backfill existing built-out County office space in Suite 188, previously occupied by the Chief Information Office who recently moved to the Hall of Records (HOR). The Board previously approved the restructure of the ACN and its services to comply with the Affordable Care Act and the California 1115 Medicaid Waiver. The program serves 24 free-standing health centers as well as non-profit and university partners, under a single organization that is the basis for an integrated delivery system prepared for the management of patients. ACN executive and support staff are housed in a single location which enhances operational efficiency and effectiveness. This space accommodates approximately 68 employees and visitors with adjacent parking. The Auditor’s existing divisions at the site include the Audit Division, Countywide Contract Monitoring Division (CCMD), and Ombudsman. Audit Division performs financial, compliance, management, and performance audits of County departments and Commissions; audits agencies and companies doing business with the County; oversees contracts for audit and consulting services requested by County departments; and responds to the Board’s special requests for investigations and audits. CCMD enhances the County’s oversight of its contractors by conducting monitoring reviews of County contractors, providing training and technical support to the County departments’ contract monitoring and contract development operations, and responding to Board inquiries and other special projects. The Ombudsman serves as a personal rights advocate, providing a confidential and informal process to resolve concerns that arise for children placed in group homes. This space accommodates approximately 120 employees and visitors with adjacent parking. The proposed leases will continue to provide DHS and the Auditor with sufficient office space for their respective ongoing operations. The existing facility adequately meets the space needs of the current departments and is accessible to public transportation routes. Approval of the recommended actions will find that the proposed leases are exempt from CEQA and will allow the existing programs to continue operations at the subject facility.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 4 Implementation of Strategic Plan Goals The Countywide Strategic Plan Goal 3 - “Realize Tomorrow’s Government Today” - provides that our increasingly dynamic, and complex environment, challenges our collective abilities to respond to public needs and expectations. We want to be an innovative, flexible, effective, and transparent partner focused on advancing the common good. The proposed leases will support this goal by allowing DHS and the Auditor to continue their operations without interruption of service. The proposed leases are in conformance with the Asset Management Principles as outlined in Attachment A. FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING The proposed leases will have the following financial impact:
Sufficient funding to cover the two additional lease costs including proposed rent, parking and County TI costs for the first year will be appropriated in the Rent Expense Budget as part of the mid-year budget adjustment to cover additional lease costs of $1,500,039. DHS and the Auditor have sufficient funding in their Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 operating budget to cover these costs for the first year. Beginning with FY 2020-21, ongoing funding for the proposed leases will be part of the budget for the departments. Rental costs for DHS are funded with State/Federal funds and local fees and the Auditor by billing to departments that receive Auditor services. FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS In addition to the terms described herein, the proposed DHS and Auditor leases include the following provisions:
− The proposed DHS and Auditor leases are on a gross basis whereby the Landlord will be responsible for all operating and maintenance costs associated with the facility.
- The square footage of the proposed lease premises has increased slightly due to
the Landlord remeasuring of the office space per current industry standards. − The maximum first year base rental cost for DHS is $608,439, and for the Auditor
it is $1,008,306 which equates to $39 annually per square foot, with annual rental adjustments of 4 percent per annum.
- Total parking costs are estimated to be $488,988 per year for both leases based on each department’s right to purchase 123 stalls at prevailing rates (currently $235 per stall per month) and a right to purchase 42 additional stalls at 120% of
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 5
prevailing rates (currently $282 per stall per month). When the leases originally commenced, parking was included in the lease rate, however, the market has changed, and the Landlord is requiring that the County pay separately for parking.
− The Landlord will provide a non-reimbursable base TI allowance of $15 per square foot to DHS equal to $234,015 and to Auditor equal to $387,810.
− The Landlord will provide an aggregate of additional reimbursable TI dollars in the amount up to $3,316,400 or $80 per square foot, which the County may reimburse in a lump sum payment or $4,340,632 if amortized over an eight-year period at 7 percent per annum.
− The aggregate cost of the proposed leases over the term for DHS and the Auditor, including rent expense, parking, and TI reimbursement, if fully utilized, would be approximately $23,149,598. Attachment B provides an overview of the total proposed lease costs.
− A cancellation provision that allows the County to terminate at 60 months with 180
days’ prior written notice, subject to payment of a termination fee.
− The proposed leases contain a holdover provision, wherein in addition to the base rent, there will be a monthly holdover fee of 25 percent over the then existing base rent for the first twelve months following expiration of the lease term. Thereafter, the monthly holdover fee shall be 50 percent of the base rent at the time of the lease expiration. The County’s holdover tenancy may be terminated upon 30 days’ notice from the Landlord.
− Both of the proposed leases give the County a right of first offer to lease additional contiguous space in the building. If Landlord intends to offer such space or receives a third party offer to lease such space, Landlord shall give the County first rights to match the proposed rental rate and lease the space, which right County must exercise within 30 days from Landlord’s notice
− The proposed leases will be effective upon approval by the Board. The Chief Executive Office (CEO), through its broker representative CBRE Group, Inc. (CBRE), conducted a survey within the project area to determine the availability of comparable office space options. CBRE was unable to identify any sites in the survey area that could accommodate this requirement more economically. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE has established that the average annual rental range for similar space is between $30 and $48.60 dollars per square foot on a full service gross basis (with base year for operating expense increases). In comparison, the base rental
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 6 rate of $39 per square foot per year, gross (no operating expenses), for the proposed lease is within market range for the area. The available co-working office spaces in the subject area were assessed and there is insufficient availability to satisfy these requirements. Attachment C shows county-owned or leased facilities in the proximity of the service area, and there are no suitable County-owned or leased facilities available for the program. The Department of Public Works has inspected the facility and found it seismically suitable for County occupancy. Construction of any TIs will be completed in compliance with relevant building and construction codes, laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act. A notification letter to the City of Los Angeles has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351. County Counsel has reviewed the attached proposed lease and has approved it as to form. The proposed lease will continue to provide an appropriate location for the applicable programs which is consistent with the County’s Facility Location Policy, as adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012, as outlined in Attachment D. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION The proposed leases are exempt from CEQA. The proposed leases, which replace the existing lease space with minor tenant improvements within an existing building, is within a class of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which meets the criteria set forth in Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Guidelines) and Class 1 of the County's Environmental Document Reporting Procedures and Guidelines, Appendix G. In addition, based on the proposed lease records, it will comply with all applicable regulations, and there are no cumulative impacts, unusual circumstances, damage to scenic highways, listing on hazardous waste site lists compiled, pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5, or indications that it may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource that would make the exemption inapplicable. Upon the Board's approval of the recommended actions, a Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk in accordance with Section 21152 of the California Public Resources Code. IMPACT ON CURENT SERVICES (OR PROJECTS The proposed leases will adequately provide the necessary office space for these County requirements. The effected departments concur with the proposed recommendation.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 7 CONCLUSION It is requested that the Executive Office, Board of Supervisors return one certified copy of the Minute Order, and the adopted stamped board letter to the CEO, Real Estate Division at 320 West Temple Street, 7th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90012 for further processing.

(2) The proposed lease requires that the County pay prevailing rates (currently $235 per parking space per month) (2/1000) and may pay for an additional 2/1000 at 120% of prevailing rates (currently $282 per parking space per month). The amount set forth assumes all parking spaces are utilized.
(3) Auditor is in the same space. Remeasuring the existing premises resulted in a small increase in square footage.

FACILITY LOCATION POLICY ANALYSIS
Proposed lease renewal: Eight-year Lease agreements for the Department of Health Services and the Auditor-Controller’s office – 350 South Figueroa Street, Los Angeles – First Supervisorial District. A. Establish Service Function Category – Regional and local public service function.
B. Determination of the Service Area – The proposed lease will provide an eight-year
lease extension for the existing DHS and Auditor programs within Service Planning Area 4.
C. Apply Location Selection Criteria to Service Area Data
• Need for proximity to service area and population: Continuing need for existing operation in the greater SPA 4 region in support of Health Services and Auditor programs.
• Need for proximity to existing County facilities: Close to other County departments.
• Need for proximity to Los Angeles Civic Center: The current site provides a central location within greater Downtown Los Angeles and is accessible to public transportation.
• Economic Development Potential: N/A
• Proximity to public transportation: The location is adequately served by local transit including a nearby Metro station.
• Availability of affordable housing for County employees: The surrounding area
provides for affordable housing and rental opportunities.
• Use of historic buildings: N/A
• Availability and compatibility of existing buildings: There are no alternative existing County buildings available to meet the Department’s needs.
• Compatibility with local land use plans: The site is currently zoned commercial, and the current use is consistent with the building’s use and zoning and not in conflict with the goals and policies of the City of Los Angeles. A notification letter has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351.
• Estimated acquisition/construction and ongoing operational costs: The initial
annual maximum costs associated with the proposed DHS lease is $996,495, which includes base rent of $608,439, parking of $183,864, and up to $204,192 in additional TI costs. The initial annual maximum costs associated with the proposed Auditor lease is $1,651,817, which includes base rent of $1,008,306, estimated parking of $305,124, and up to $338,387 in additional TI costs. Rental costs for DHS are funded with State/Federal funds and local fees and the Auditor by billing to departments that receive Auditor services.
D. Analyze results and identify location alternatives
Based upon the space and service needs of the Departments, CBRE surveyed the immediate area to determine the availability of comparable and more economical site alternatives. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE, as CEO’s representative, has established that the annual average rental rate for similar space is $41.90 per square foot per year on a full service gross basis. Therefore, the base annual rent of $39 per square foot per year gross for the proposed leases, represents a rate below the average market rate for the area.
E. Determine benefits and drawbacks of each alternative based upon functional needs, service area, cost and other Location Selection Criteria The existing facility provides proper accommodations for the Departments within the indicated service area. The proposed leases area in conformance with the Asset Management Principles as outlined in Attachment A. The consolidation of services for DPH within the existing facility will continue to provide an appropriate location, which is consistent with the County’s Facility Location Policy, adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012.

SOLE SOURCE CONTRACT
Yes No If Yes, please explain why:
DEADLINES/ TIME CONSTRAINTS
Existing lease for DPSS is currently on month-to-month holdover since June 22, 2018. Existing lease for DPH is currently on month-to-month holdover since June 14, 2017.
COST & FUNDING Total cost: $11,128,641 total lease rental costs including parking.
Funding source: The rental costs for DPSS are funded 82.88 percent with State and Federal funds and 17.12 percent with net County cost. The rental costs for DPH are 100 percent funded from revenue generated by license and permit fees.
TERMS (if applicable): The proposed base rent is subject to annual increases of 4 percent per annum as a result of the high demand for office space. The leases include a cancellation provision that allows the County to terminate the proposed leases at the 36th month, with at least nine months’ notice. Both departments in the building have the right of first offer to lease any contiguous space that arises after execution of the lease and prior to the last 12 months of the term. The proposed leases contain a holdover provision, wherein there is a monthly holdover fee of 25% of the then existing base rent for the first twelve months following expiration of the lease term. Thereafter, the monthly holdover fee shall be 50% of the base rent at the time of the lease expiration. The County’s holdover tenancy may be terminated upon 30 days’ notice from the Landlord. The proposed leases contain one, four-year option to extend the leases at the then current fair market rental rate and terms, with six months’ prior written notice. Explanation: Funding for the proposed option is included in the Fiscal Year 2019-20 Rent Expense budget and will be billed back to the DPSS and DPH.
CO-WORK SPACE ASSESSMENT
Extensive research has been completed to evaluate the option of utilizing co-working as an alternative site for DPSS and DPH at 9800 La Cienega Boulevard. There is only one co-working location in the LAX submarket, which is heavily multi-tenanted and would not allow for anything more than an 800-1,000 square foot user group. There are other co-working options in less than a five mile radius to this site, but not any that can accommodate a 55,000 or 5,000 square foot user group. Therefore, co-work space is not a viable alternative.
PURPOSE OF REQUEST
Approval of the recommended action will authorize and continue to adequately provide the necessary office space for DPSS and DPH.
BACKGROUND (include internal/external issues that may exist)
The County has leased these premises at 9800 La Cienega Boulevard, Inglewood since 2008 and 2012 respectively. DPSS and DPH currently occupy space under separate leases. DPSS occupies 55,318 square feet of office space required for its Customer Service Center, a direct service program, which services CalWorks, CalFresh, Medi-Cal, and General Relief participants. DPH occupies 4,854 square feet of office space required for its Environmental Health (EH) program which inspects retail food facilities and multiple family dwellings with five or more units. DPH holds administrative hearings on the premises. The existing facility adequately meets the space needs of the County departments. The location is freeway accessible and will accommodate all employees and visitors with sufficient parking.

The proposed leases will become effective upon approval by the Board.
PURPOSE/JUSTIFICATION OF RECOMMENDED ACTION The County has leased these premises at 9800 La Cienega Boulevard, Inglewood, since 2008 for DPSS and 2012 for DPH respectively. DPSS and DPH currently occupy space under separate leases. The lease for DPSS expired on June 22, 2018, and has since been on a month-to-month holdover basis, with a 25 percent monthly holdover fee. The lease for DPH expired on June 14, 2017, and has been on a month-to-month holdover basis, with no holdover fee. Both departments desire to enter into new separate five-year leases. The costs associated with each lease are itemized in Attachment B. DPSS currently houses its Customer Service Center in the building, a direct service program, which services CalWorks, CalFresh, Medi-Cal, and General Relief participants. DPH currently provides direct service in the community through its Environmental Health (EH) program which inspects retail food facilities and multiple family dwellings with five or more units. DPH also holds administrative hearings on the premises. Both departments desire to continue leasing at this location and the proposed leases will allow them to continue their respective operations without interruption of services.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 3 DPSS also has a separate License Agreement (No. L-1176) for 40 additional parking spaces in the building. The proposed lease will include these 40 spaces and the license will be cancelled upon execution of the proposed lease. The Landlord will provide a total of $902,580 in base TI allowance, based on $15 per square foot for DPSS and DPH. The existing facility adequately meets the space needs of DPSS and DPH. The location is freeway accessible and will accommodate approximately 315 employees and visitors with sufficient parking. Approval of the recommended actions will find that the proposed leases are exempt from CEQA and will allow DPSS and DPH to continue operations at the subject facility. Implementation of Strategic Plan Goals The Countywide Strategic Plan Goal 3 - “Realize Tomorrow’s Government Today” - provides that our increasingly dynamic, and complex environment, challenges our collective abilities to respond to public needs and expectations. We want to be an innovative, flexible, effective, and transparent partner focused on advancing the common good. The proposed leases will support this goal by allowing DPSS and DPH to continue their operations without interruption of service. The proposed leases are in conformance with the Asset Management Principles as outlined in Attachment A. FISCAL IMPACT/FINANCING
There is sufficient appropriation in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 Rent Expense Budget to cover the first-year costs, which will then be billed to DPSS and DPH. DPSS and DPH have sufficient funding in their Fiscal (FY) 2019-20 operating budget to cover these costs for the first year. Beginning with FY 2020-21, ongoing funding for the proposed leases will be part of the budget for each department. The rental costs for DPSS are funded 82.88 percent by State and Federal funds and 17.12 percent by net County cost. The rental costs for DPH are funded 100 percent by revenue generated from license and permit fees. FACTS AND PROVISIONS/LEGAL REQUIREMENTS In addition to the terms described herein, the proposed leases include the following provisions:
− The proposed leases are gross leases whereby the Landlord will be responsible for all the operating and maintenance costs associated with the premises, including janitorial costs.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 4

The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 5
− The proposed leases contain a holdover provision, wherein in addition to the base rent, there is a monthly holdover fee equal to 25 percent over the then existing base rent for the first twelve months following expiration of the lease term. Thereafter, the monthly holdover fee shall be increased to 50 percent over the base rent at the time of the lease expiration. The County’s holdover tenancy may be terminated upon 30 days’ notice from the Landlord.
− Both of the proposed leases give the County a right of first offer to lease additional contiguous space in the building. If Landlord intends to offer such space or receives a third party offer to lease such space, Landlord shall give the County first rights to match the proposed rental rate and lease the space, which right County must exercise within 30 days from Landlord’s notice.
− The proposed leases contain one, four-year option to extend the leases at the then current fair market rental rate and terms, provided the County gives not less than six months prior written notice.
− The proposed leases will be effective upon approval by the Board.
The CEO, through its broker representative CBRE, conducted a survey within the project area to determine the availability of comparable office space options. CBRE was unable to identify any sites in the survey area that could accommodate this requirement more economically. The existing rent is under the average market rate for this area. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE has established that the average annual rental rate for similar space is $32.04 per square foot on a full-service gross basis (with a base year for operating expense increases). In comparison, the base rental rate of $28.80 per square foot per year, gross (no operating expenses), for the proposed leases represents a rate below the average market rate for the area. Research has been completed to evaluate the option of utilizing co-working space as an alternate location for DPSS or DPH at 9800 South La Cienega Boulevard. The co-working locations nearby do not have available space to satisfy these requirements. Attachment C shows County-owned or leased facilities in the proximity of the service area and there are no suitable County-owned or leased facilities available for the program. The Department of Public Works has inspected the facility and found it seismically suitable for County occupancy. Construction of any TIs will be completed in compliance with relevant building and construction codes, laws and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act. A notification letter to the City of Inglewood has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351. County Counsel has reviewed the attached proposed leases and has approved them as to form.
The Honorable Board of Supervisors March 4, 2020 Page 6 The proposed leases will continue to provide a suitable office location for the Departments’ existing programs which is consistent with the County’s facility location policy, as adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012, and further outlined in Attachment D. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION The proposed leases are exempt from CEQA. The proposed leases, which replace the existing lease spaces with minor TIs within an existing building, are within a class of projects that have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which meet the criteria set forth in Section 15301 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Guidelines) and Class 1 of the County's Environmental Document Reporting Procedures and Guidelines, Appendix G. In addition, based on the proposed lease records, it will comply with all applicable regulations, and there are no cumulative impacts, unusual circumstances, damage to scenic highways, listing on hazardous waste site lists compiled, pursuant to Government Code Section 65962.5, or indications that it may cause a substantial adverse change in the significance of a historical resource that would make the exemption inapplicable. Upon the Board's approval of the recommended actions, a Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk in accordance with Section 21152 of the California Public Resources Code. IMPACT ON CURENT SERVICES (OR PROJECTS The proposed leases will adequately provide the necessary office space for the County requirements. DPSS and DPH concur with the proposed lease recommendations.

FACILITY LOCATION POLICY ANALYSIS
Proposed lease renewal: Five-year Lease agreements for DPSS and DPH – 9800 La Cienega Boulevard, Inglewood – Second District. A. Establish Service Function Category – Direct Service programs, inspections and
administrative hearings
B. Determination of the Service Area –The proposed lease will allow DPSS and DPH to continue their respective functions housed in the building and continue operations without interruption.
C. Apply Location Selection Criteria to Service Area Data
• Need for proximity to service area and population: DPSS and DPH need to be in this service area. This location meets the service area criteria and remains in an appropriate area.
• Need for proximity to existing County facilities: DPSS and DPH are both located in the building, facilitating the sharing of facility resources.
• Need for proximity to Los Angeles Civic Center: N/A
• Economic Development Potential: N/A
• Proximity to public transportation: The location is adequately served by local transit
services including the bus lines.
• Availability of affordable housing for County employees: The surrounding area provides for affordable housing and rental opportunities.
• Use of historic buildings: N/A
• Availability and compatibility of existing buildings: There is no space available in
existing County-owned buildings to meet the departments service needs.
ATTACHMENT D
Page 2 of 2
• Compatibility with local land use plans: The proposed use is consistent with the building’s use, zoning, and not in conflict with the goals of the City of Inglewood. The Department of Public Works inspected the facility and found it suitable for County occupancy. A notification letter has been sent pursuant to Government Code Section 25351.
• Estimated acquisition/construction and ongoing operational costs: The initial
aggregate annual maximum costs associated with both of the proposed leases are $2,204,987 which includes base rent of $1,732,955 and estimated parking costs of $472,032. The rental costs for DPSS are 82.88 percent funded from State and Federal funds and 17.12 percent from net County costs. DPH is 100 percent funded from revenue generated from license and permit fees.
D. Analyze results and identify location alternatives Based upon the space and service needs of the departments, CBRE surveyed the immediate area to determine the availability of comparable and more economical site alternatives. Based upon a review of available industry data, CBRE, CEO’s representative, has established that the annual average rental rate for similar space is $32.04 per square foot per year on a full-service gross basis. Therefore, the base annual rent of $28.80 per square foot per year gross for the proposed lease renewal, represents a rate below the average market rate for the area.
E. Determine benefits and drawbacks of each alternative based upon functional needs, service area, cost and other Location Selection Criteria The renewal of the subject lease agreements for both departments will continue to provide suitable space for their respective programs, which is consistent with the County’s Facility Location Policy, adopted by the Board of Supervisors on July 24, 2012. The lease renewals will allow the departments to provide continuity of operations. The cost to move to another location would require additional TIs that would probably further increase overall costs.
