[J. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION PRIOR TO ACTION]

[00:05:06]

THE LOTS HIGHLIGHTED IN BLUE ALONG THE ABOUT QUARTER MILE BLOCK ARE ALL THE NOTICING THAT WENT OUT FOR THIS AGENDA ITEM AS WELL AS ALL THE PROPERTY OWNERS ON THIS BLOCK. JUST A TIMELINE OF THE PETITION AND THE PETITION WE RECEIVED THIS REQUEST IN MARCH 2026.

WE FIRST INVESTIGATED THE STREET TO SEE IF IT WOULD QUALIFY FOR SPEED CUSHIONS, PER THE CITY COUNCIL'S POLICY, SUCH AS GRADES, ALIGNMENT AND CLASSIFICATION.

ONCE WE PASS THAT THRESHOLD, WE PROVIDED THE PETITION FORMS TO THE RESIDENT.

WE REQUIRE TWO THIRDS RESIDENT APPROVAL OF SPEED CUSHIONS BEFORE WE CAN PROCEED.

SO THAT'S 26 OF THE 39 HOMES OR ADDRESSES ON THE STREET.

WE RECEIVED 33 SIGNATURES AND WE DID SPOT CHECKS OF RESIDENCY.

AND SO BECAUSE WE WERE WELL OVER TWO THIRDS, WE MOVED FORWARD WITH THE ENGINEERING STUDY.

IN THE CITY COUNCIL'S SPEED CUSHION POLICY THIS REQUIRES, AFTER THE PETITION SIGNATURES, TO DO A SPEED AND VOLUME STUDY.

THE THRESHOLDS TO IN ORDER FOR US TO RECOMMEND A SPEED CUSHION, ARE 32 MILES OR ABOVE OF 85TH PERCENTILE SPEEDS, AND THE STREET HAS NO MORE THAN 3,000 AVERAGE DAILY TRAFFIC 3,000 CARS PER DAY.

AND AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, IT MET OTHER CRITERIA SUCH AS THE GRADE, THE CLASSIFICATION, AND THE HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL ALIGNMENT.

HERE'S A SUMMARY OF THE SPEEDS AND VOLUMES WE SAW.

BECAUSE OF THE LENGTH OF THIS BLOCK, WE TOOK DATA ON TWO SEGMENTS OF THE STREET ONE AROUND 310 AVENUE F AND THE OTHER AROUND 330 AVENUE F.

AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, WE DID HIT 32MPH NEAR 330, AND OUR TRAFFIC VOLUMES ARE WELL BELOW THE 3,000 VEHICLE LIMIT, AND THESE COUNTS WERE TAKEN OVER A 24 HOUR PERIOD, SEVEN DAYS A WEEK IN THE END OF APRIL, BEGINNING OF MAY. SO THEREFORE, WE DECIDED THAT WE COULD RECOMMEND SPEED CUSHIONS.

AND BASED ON THE LENGTH OF THE BLOCK, WE'RE RECOMMENDING THEM AT THREE LOCATIONS SHOWN ON THE SCREEN HERE.

THIS GIVES ABOUT A 250 TO 300 FOOT SPACING FOR BETWEEN SPEED CUSHIONS.

THAT'S TYPICAL PRACTICE. OUR SPEED CUSHIONS ARE MODULAR IN NATURE, AND THEY ALLOW FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES, AMBULANCES TO STRADDLE THEM AND NOT HAVE TO SLOW DOWN AS MUCH.

THESE SPEED CUSHIONS ARE PREFABRICATED. THE SIGNAGE AND ASSOCIATED STRIPING WOULD BE INSTALLED SIMILAR TO OTHER SPEED CUSHIONS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

THE BLOCKS TO THE NORTH HAVE THEM ALREADY AND WE WILL NOT BE REMOVING ANY PARKING.

THESE LOCATIONS WERE ALSO PROVIDED IN THE RESIDENT NOTICING.

SO ALL RESIDENTS AND PROPERTY OWNERS WERE NOTIFIED OF THE PROPOSED LOCATIONS.

HERE'S A MAP OF THE PROPOSED LOCATIONS. THERE ARE A COUPLE SEGMENTS OF THE STREET THAT HAVE GRADES OVER 8%.

THAT'S WHERE WE WOULD NOT RECOMMEND SPEED CUSHIONS.

SO WE WERE ABLE TO FIND LOCATIONS ON THE STREET THAT WERE FLAT ENOUGH AND HAD ADEQUATE VISIBILITY OF THOSE SPEED CUSHIONS TO PROVIDE A RELATIVELY EVEN SPACING UP AND DOWN THE BLOCK. AND THAT'S OUR PRESENTATION. WE DO RECOMMEND THAT THE COMMISSION RECOMMEND THESE SPEED CUSHIONS FOR THE CITY COUNCIL TO APPROVE. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU RYAN FOR YOUR PRESENTATION. I WAS WONDERING WHAT TYPE OF SPEED CUSHION YOU'RE RECOMMENDING.

IS IT A TACK ON? IS IT ASPHALT? IT'S TACKED ON.

SO IT'S A RECYCLED RUBBER AND IT'S BOLTED INTO THE ASPHALT.

IT'S A TYPICAL MODEL THAT WE AND HERMOSA BEACH USE.

AND WHAT WOULD YOU CONTRIBUTE TO THE ABILITY OF THE RESIDENTS TO GET SO MANY PEOPLE TO SIGN UP FOR THIS SITUATION WHERE I KNOW WE'VE HAD THAT ISSUE OF TRYING TO GET TWO THIRDS OF RESIDENTS IN THE PAST FOR SPECIFIC ISSUES.

I THINK IT REALLY DEPENDS ON THE BLOCK. AND BECAUSE THIS IS A RESIDENT DRIVEN PROCESS, I BELIEVE THAT RESIDENT IS HERE TONIGHT.

SO IT DOES TAKE THE WORK OF, YOU KNOW, THE RESIDENTS WHO, YOU KNOW, ADVOCATE FOR THE BLOCK AND TRY TO BUILD SUPPORT ON THE STREET.

WE DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES AS STAFF TO HELP CONVINCE OR DETERMINE THAT DECISION.

WE, WE LEAVE THAT TO THE RESIDENTS TO DO. ANECDOTALLY, I WOULD SAY, YOU KNOW, THE STREETS IN SOUTH REDONDO TEND TO HAVE IT EASIER IN TERMS OF GETTING APPROVAL FOR THESE BECAUSE IT'S MOSTLY SINGLE FAMILY OR 2 OR 3 ON A LOT HOMES.

WE HAVEN'T HEARD A LOT OF REQUESTS UP IN NORTH REDONDO, ESPECIALLY WHERE THERE'S MORE APARTMENT COMPLEXES, IT CAN BE HARD TO REACH YOUR NEIGHBORS THAT WAY.

AND THE, THE BLOCKS IN NORTH REDONDO TEND TO BE NARROWER STREETS, SLOWER SPEEDS, MORE INTERSECTIONS AND SHORTER BLOCK LENGTHS COMPARED TO SOUTH REDONDO.

[00:10:09]

SO I THINK WE HEAR MORE ABOUT EXCESSIVE SPEEDS DOWN IN SOUTH REDONDO.

COMMISSIONER TSAO.

I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION, RYAN. OH, SORRY. YEAH, SORRY.

WE'RE STARTING TO SEE MORE AND MORE STREETS WITH THESE SPEED CUSHIONS. LIKE WHERE I LIVE, THE STREET, WE HAVE SPEED CUSHIONS.

AND I THINK THIS IS BECOMING LIKE A POPULAR REQUEST AMONGST RESIDENTS TO FOR JUST SPEED REDUCTION.

BASED ON THE DATA THAT YOU HAVE, I'M JUST CURIOUS HAS IT BEEN AN EFFECTIVE MECHANISM TO REDUCE SPEED NOT PROVIDE ANY NUISANCE BECAUSE OF THE NOISE, OBVIOUSLY.

HAS IT BEEN LIKE AN EFFECTIVE IMPLEMENTATION.

I MEAN, WE'RE SEEING THIS THROUGHOUT THE CITY. YEAH. ANECDOTALLY, WE'VE HEARD A LOT OF GOOD SUPPORT. I THINK ONLY 1 OR 2 RESIDENTS SINCE I'VE STARTED WORKING HERE HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT SPEED CUSHIONS.

WE DO HAVE DATA, ACTUALLY FOR THE FLAGLER SPEED TABLES.

THOSE ALLOW A SLIGHTLY HIGHER SPEED. THE 85TH PERCENTILE SPEED ON FLAGLER DROPPED BY AT LEAST NINE MILES PER HOUR.

SO IT WAS GOING FROM LIKE 32 TO 34MPH RIGHT IN FRONT OF DOMINGUEZ PARK.

AND THOSE CROSSWALKS THERE. AND IT WENT DOWN TO LIKE THE MID 20S BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT.

SO WE CONSIDER THAT A BIG SUCCESS. SO RESIDENCES HAVE BEEN OVERALL POSITIVE.

YES THEY HAVE. YEAH. WE HAVEN'T HEARD ANY YOU KNOW, REPEATED COMPLAINTS.

COMMISSIONER BAJAJ. OH, I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE EVERYONE'S HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO VOICE THEIR QUESTIONS, SO I WOULD MAKE A MOTION THEN TO APPROVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION TO ADVANCE THE SPEED CUSHIONS.

JESSE, DO WE HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT? OH, THERE THERE'S NO HANDS RAISED ON ZOOM.

AND LET ME CHECK THE ECOMMENTS. THERE ARE NO ECOMMENTS FOR THIS ITEM. OKAY. COMMISSIONER BAJAJ.

OH YEAH. YOUR MOTION. MY MOTION IS ON THE TABLE THEN FOR RECOMMENDING THE STAFF TO ADVANCE THE CONSIDERATION OF SPEED CUSHIONS.

I'LL SECOND THAT. SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. ROLL CALL.

WE DO NEED TO TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT IF THERE'S ANY.

I'M SO SORRY. OH, MY GOD, I'M SO SORRY. PUBLIC COMMENT.

WHY DON'T WE HEAR FROM THE. I'M SO SORRY. I'LL KEEP THIS SHORT.

LET'S TURN HER MIC. SO SORRY. OH, CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? YES. OKAY, THANKS. HI, I'M JENNIFER LARSON. THANK YOU SO MUCH, CHAIRPERSON ARRATA, COMMISSIONERS.

RYAN, AND EVERYONE WHO'S BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS.

I'M A SOUTH BAY LOCAL. I HAVE TWO KIDS, A ONE YEAR OLD AND A THREE YEAR OLD.

THEY ARE RUNNERS. THERE'S A LOT OF CHILDREN ON THE BLOCK.

SO I THINK WE GOT A LOT OF FAMILIES ON THE BLOCK WHO SUPPORTED THIS.

AND ALSO IF YOU LOOK AT A MAP THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO KIND OF WANT TO CUT THE CORNER GOING FROM PCH TO PV BOULEVARD IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. AND BECAUSE E HAS CUSHIONS, I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE CHOOSE TO USE F AS THAT THOROUGHFARE SO THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR THAT LEFT HAND TURN OR A LIGHT, OR TO MAKE A RIGHT HAND TURN GOING THE OTHER WAY.

SO I THINK THAT'S ONE REASON THAT PEOPLE DO SPEED THROUGH THERE IS JUST TO KIND OF CUT THE CORNER AND AVOID THAT INTERSECTION.

AND WE HAVE GREAT FAMILIES, GREAT CHILDREN ON THE BLOCK, AND WE JUST HOPE TO KEEP THEM ALL SAFE.

SO THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU, JENNIFER.

ALL RIGHT. AT THIS POINT, SHOULD I MAKE A MOTION AGAIN? I THINK YOU ALREADY MADE THE MOTION. OKAY. DID SOMEONE SECOND THE MOTION? I SECONDED IT. SIMPSON. OKAY. OKAY. ROLL CALL VOTE.

ROLL CALL VOTE. COMMISSIONER SIMPSON. AYE. COMMISSIONER BAJAJ.

AYE. COMMISSIONER ANDERSON. AYE. COMMISSIONER NAFISSI.

AYE. COMMISSIONER BEELI. AYE. COMMISSIONER TSAO.

AYE. CHAIR ARRATA. AYE. THANK YOU. OKAY, MOVING ON TO.

CONGRATULATIONS. J.2 UPDATE AND FINAL DESIGN FOR PALOS VERDES BOULEVARD PROTECTED BIKE LANES.

SO THIS NEXT TOPIC IS THE SECOND DISCUSSION FOR OUR LAST SUBSTANTIAL DISCUSSION.

WE'RE ANTICIPATING FOR THE PROPOSED PROTECTED BIKE LANES ON PALOS VERDES BOULEVARD.

JUST AS AN OVERVIEW, WE THIS IS THE NOTICING AREA.

ALL ADDRESSES WITHIN 250FT OF THE PALOS VERDES BOULEVARD CORRIDOR BETWEEN PCH AND SOUTH IRENA.

WE ALSO PROVIDED A NOTICE TO THE EDDY OR FORMERLY KNOWN AS THE LEGATO PROJECT.

WE SENT THE NOTICE TO THE PROPERTY MANAGER. THEY CONFIRMED RECEIPT.

[00:15:03]

SO THIS IS OVER 250, POSSIBLY 350 PEOPLE GETTING THIS NOTICE.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE'S NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE HERE, BUT WE DID GET CONFIRMATION THAT THOSE MAILINGS DID REACH THOSE ADDRESSES.

WE DID GET A BOUNCE BACK. SO WE CAN CONFIRM THAT THE MAILINGS WERE SENT.

AS YOU MAY RECALL, WE PREVIOUSLY DISCUSSED THIS TOPIC AT THE COMMISSION IN JANUARY 2025.

THIS WAS A REFERRAL FROM THEN COUNCILMEMBER NEHRENHEIM TO STUDY PALOS VERDES BOULEVARD FOR PROTECTED BIKE LANES.

WE LOOKED AT THE PARKING AND WE PERFORMED A MULTI-DAY PARKING STUDY ALONG PV BOULEVARD.

FOUND VERY LOW PARKING UTILIZATION AND AT THE MEETING IN JANUARY 2025, THE COMMISSION VOTED UNANIMOUSLY TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT PROTECTED BIKE LANES ON THE STREET. THAT MONEY WAS INCLUDED IN THE CITY COUNCIL'S FISCAL YEAR BUDGET.

SINCE THEN, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE DESIGN AND ACCRUING ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY FOR THE PROJECT.

AT THIS TIME, THE DESIGN IS NOW COMPLETE AND WE ARE HOPING TO PUT THIS IN THROUGH A SLURRY SEAL PROJECT THIS SUMMER, SUBJECT TO CITY COUNCIL APPROVING THE PLANS. ON THE TOP, AS WE SHOWED LAST TIME, IS THE EXISTING CONFIGURATION OF PALOS VERDES BOULEVARD, TWO LANES IN EACH DIRECTION, WITH EIGHT FOOT PARKING ON BOTH SIDES.

BECAUSE THE PARKING UTILIZATION WAS SO LOW, THE PROPOSED CONFIGURATION IS TO REPLACE THAT STREET PARKING BETWEEN PCH AND SOUTH IRENA WITH A SIX FOOT BIKE LANE WITH A FOUR FOOT BUFFER BETWEEN AND NARROWING THE LANES TO TEN FEET, WHICH SHOULD ALSO ACHIEVE TRAFFIC CALMING.

ON THE LEFT IS A SNIPPET OF THE SIGNING AND STRIPING PLAN THAT WAS PREPARED FOR THIS PROJECT.

THE WHOLE PLAN WAS INCLUDED. HERE ON THE RIGHT ARE PHOTOS OF THE PROTECTION MATERIALS WE'LL BE USING.

WE ARE CURRENTLY PROPOSING PREFABRICATED BOLT IN PLACE CONCRETE CURBS.

WE BELIEVE THIS IS THE MOST ESTHETICALLY PLEASING CHOICE, WHILE STILL OFFERING ROBUST PROTECTION FOR CYCLISTS, AND IS VERY LOW MAINTENANCE. WE WILL BE USING A SMALL NUMBER OF FLEXIBLE POSTS OF A HIGHER THREE FOOT HEIGHT SO THAT THEY'RE REFLECTIVE AND DRIVERS AND CYCLISTS CAN SEE THEM. BUT OVERALL, WE BELIEVE THIS DESIGN WOULD PROVIDE THE BEST PROJECT AND A GOOD DESIGN STANDARD FOR REDONDO BEACH.

WE'RE STILL GOING THROUGH THE COST ESTIMATES FOR THESE MATERIALS AS A LAST RESORT, IF WE ARE NOT ABLE TO FUND THESE CONCRETE BARRIERS, WE MAY USE PARKING STOPS INSTEAD. THEY LOOK VERY SIMILAR AND ARE RUBBERIZED MATERIAL, BUT THAT WOULD BE THE LAST RESORT.

WE DON'T ANTICIPATE FILLING THIS CORRIDOR WITH PLASTIC BOLLARDS.

THAT'S A SIMPLE PRESENTATION. WE WANT TO PROVIDE ONE FINAL OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMISSION AND THE PUBLIC TO PROVIDE INPUT BEFORE WE SEND THE PLANS TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR APPROVAL.

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. CAN I MAKE ONE COMMENT? PLEASE DON'T PUT THE PLASTIC BOLLARDS UP.

PLEASE DON'T. WE WILL NEED A FEW AT THE START OF BLOCKS SO THAT THE CONCRETE BARRIERS ARE VISIBLE.

BUT YEAH, WE'RE TRYING TO WE'RE TRYING TO MINIMIZE THE USE OF THOSE.

YEAH. YOU DON'T WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE A LOT OF THE LOS ANGELES STREETS, WHICH ARE SOLELY PLASTIC BOLLARDS.

AND THEY JUST YEAH, THEY LOSE THEIR ESTHETIC APPEAL VERY QUICKLY.

WELL, ASIDE FROM THE HARBOR, WILL THIS BE THE FIRST PROTECTED BIKE LANE THAT THE CITY DOES? YES. THIS WILL BE OUR SECOND PROTECTED BIKE LANE AND PROBABLY ALSO THE SECOND IN THE SOUTH BAY, I THINK. WHAT IS THE FIRST ONE, DO YOU KNOW? HARBOR DRIVE.

OH YEAH. I DON'T THINK THERE ARE ANY OTHER CITIES IN THE SOUTH BAY THAT HAVE.

UNLESS THERE ARE PROTECTED BIKE LANES IN WILMINGTON, MAYBE.

POSSIBLY, BUT I'M NOT SURE. YEAH. YOU'RE NOT COUNTING THE ESPLANADE? YEAH, YEAH, YEAH. ALL RIGHT.

ANY PUBLIC COMMENT, JESSE? THERE ARE NO HANDS RAISED ON ZOOM.

AND THERE IS ONE COMMENT IN SUPPORT OF THIS ITEM.

OKAY. COMMISSIONER ANDERSON. ANY COMMENTS? I'M JUST GOING TO GO DOWN THE LINE REAL QUICK.

COMMISSIONER ANDERSON. ANY COMMENT? COMMISSIONER BAJAJ.

NO COMMENT. OKAY. COMMISSIONER ANDERSON. NO I'M SORRY.

COMMISSIONER SIMPSON. COMMISSIONER TSAO. NO COMMENT.

COMMISSIONER BEELI. HOW MANY OF THE INTERSECTIONS HAVE CROSSWALKS THAT GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

SO THERE ARE EVERY INTERSECTION IS A LEGAL CROSSWALK.

BUT IN TERMS OF FORMALIZED CONTROLLED CROSSWALKS WITH MARKINGS, IT'S AT ALBERTA AND AVENUE F, I BELIEVE THERE'S, TWO LOCATIONS WHERE THERE'S ALWAYS STOPS ALONG PV BOULEVARD.

I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PLAN AS PRESENTED.

[00:20:08]

YEAH. THANK YOU. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. AYE. SHORT MEETING, COMMISSION MEMBER ITEMS AND FUTURE COMMISSIONER COMMISSION ITEM AGENDA

[K. COMMISSION MEMBER ITEMS AND FUTURE COMMISSION AGENDA TOPICS]

NO. COMMISSIONER BAJAJ. COMMISSIONER ANDERSON.

COMMISSIONER TSAO. COMMISSIONER BEELI. WHAT WAS UP WITH THE BLUE FOLDER? WAS THERE SOMETHING WITH THE BLUE FOLDER. ATTACHMENT? WAS THERE ANYTHING IN THE PACKET? I DIDN'T SEE IT.

IT CAME IN AT 5:15, SO IT WASN'T IN THE INITIAL PACKET.

SO IF YOU GO ONLINE NOW, YOU'LL SEE THE ATTACHMENT ON THERE.

AND I EMAILED IT TO EVERYONE PRIOR TO THIS MEETING TOO.

BUT IT CAME IN, IT CAME IN LATE SO IT HAD TO DO WITH PROSPECT.

PROSPECT. I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION, RYAN. IF YOU GUYS CAN GIVE AN UPDATE, DO YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT THE PROGRESS OF THE THAT LITTLE HERONDO PARK ON CATALINA AND HERONDO? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT HOW THAT'S GOING? YEAH, I CAN GIVE YOU AN UPDATE.

SO HERONDO AND PCH IS CURRENTLY IN ITS MAINTENANCE PHASE OR THE FOR THE LANDSCAPING.

WE HAVE 90 DAYS, A 90 DAY MAINTENANCE PERIOD TO LET THE PLANTS GROW AND GET ESTABLISHED.

THAT SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THE END OF THIS MONTH, AND THEN WE'RE GEARING UP FOR LIKELY A DISCUSSION ITEM ON JULY 7TH TO NAME THE PARK. SO THAT WILL GO TO THAT'S AT THE REQUEST OF CITY COUNCIL.

SO WE'RE ANTICIPATING THAT AND THEN WE'LL DO A RIBBON CUTTING SHORTLY THEREAFTER.

SO EITHER THURSDAY OF THAT WEEK OR THE FOLLOWING WEEK.

WE'RE STILL WORKING THAT OUT. BUT YEAH, IT SHOULD BE OPENED SHORTLY HERE IN JULY, I BELIEVE THAT'D BE NINTH OR THE FOLLOWING WEEK AFTER THAT.

SO IT DOESN'T GO ALL THE WAY DOWN TO FRANCESCA.

IS IT LIKE TWO PARCELS, LIKE MULTI PARCELS. IT IS ONE PARCEL AND WE THE CITY HAS A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH EDISON. HOWEVER, WE HAD TO BIFURCATE THE PROJECT INTO TWO PHASES.

SIMPLY THE COST GOT THE BETTER OF THE PROJECT.

BUT WE DEFINITELY DID THE, BULK OF IT. AND SO THE SLOPE WILL COME AT A LATER PHASE.

WE ARE EXPLORING DIFFERENT SORTS OF FUNDING, BUT CURRENTLY DID NOT MAKE THE CIP BUDGET AT THIS POINT.

SO THERE'S LIMITED FUNDS FOR THAT TYPE OF WORK.

YEAH. OKAY. THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. THANKS.

OKAY. I'M MOVING ON TO ADJOURNMENT. BEFORE YOU MAKE A MOTION TO ADJOURN.

SO FOR A MOTION TO ADJOURN. I THINK IF WE CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE NEXT MEETING, WE DON'T CURRENTLY HAVE ANY ITEMS FOR YOU NEXT MONTH.

SO THIS IS KIND OF AN OPPORTUNITY TO SEE. I KNOW IT'S SUMMER.

WHETHER WE WANT TO ADJOURN TO AN AUGUST MEETING.

WHAT THE BUT IT'S ALL UP TO THE COMMISSION. IF THE COMMISSION WANTS TO HAVE A MEETING, WE CAN FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

BUT AT THIS MOMENT WE DON'T HAVE ANY ITEMS THAT ARE SCHEDULED TO COME BEFORE THE COMMISSION AT THIS TIME.

WE WOULD NEED A MOTION AND AGREEMENT, OBVIOUSLY FROM ALL THE COMMISSIONERS.

SO KIND OF WANT TO GET YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT.

WHAT DAY IN AUGUST ARE YOU? IT WOULD BE TO THE NEXT REGULAR MEETING, WHICH IS WHAT THE 24TH.

27TH. YEAH. 24TH, 24TH. AUGUST 24TH WOULD BE THE AUGUST.

JULY 27TH. OKAY. YEAH. SO IT WOULD BE CANCELING THE JULY 27TH MEETING AND ADJOURNING TO THE AUGUST 24TH MEETING.

I DON'T FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO COME HERE TO DO ROLL CALL AND THEN LEAVE.

RIGHT. YOU GUYS, I'M SURE YOU WANT TO GO HOME.

I LEAVE THAT TO YOU GUYS. YEAH, I'M OKAY WITH MOVING IT IF EVERYONE ELSE IS.

YEAH, I'M GOOD WITH THAT. I WON'T BE HERE ANYHOW, SO.

YEAH. OKAY. I GUESS MAKE A MOTION TO. I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO ADJOURN TO AUGUST 24TH.

I WILL SECOND THAT MOTION. I'LL DO A ROLL CALL VOTE.

SURE. COMMISSIONER SIMPSON. AYE. COMMISSIONER BAJAJ.

AYE. COMMISSIONER ANDERSON. AYE. COMMISSIONER NAFISSI.

AYE. COMMISSIONER BEELI. AYE. COMMISSIONER TSAO.

[00:25:03]

SO THE NEXT MEETING OF THE REDONDO BEACH PUBLIC WORKS, SAFETY AND SUSTAINABILITY COMMISSION WILL BE A REGULAR MEETING HELD 7 P.M.

ON AUGUST 24TH, 2026 IN REDONDO BEACH COUNCIL CHAMBERS AT 415 DIAMOND STREET, REDONDO BEACH.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. ADJOURNED.
