city council

The council's two largest expenditure approvals were a combined $1,129,333 to Savi Construction, Inc. — structured as an $847,000 three-year citywide red curb painting contract plus a separate $282,333 first-year purchase order to the same vendor — approved 5-0 with Councilmember Bowers voting yes while stating 'reluctantly'; and a $801,642 two-year sole-source lease with Flock Safety, Inc. for 74 automatic license plate readers and 37 PTZ cameras, approved 5-0 despite opposition from at least four public speakers who cited privacy concerns, potential conflicts with California's SB 34 and SB 54, and the sole-source designation of the contract. The consent agenda — which included a $62,100 contract to Mariposa Eco Consulting for SB 1383 implementation, acceptance of a $32,208 LA Dodgers Foundation grant paired with a $24,000 contract to Harold Johnson (an amount that sits just below the $25,000 council approval threshold), and two sets of meeting minutes — passed 5-0 after item 7, a $5,662 Grainger purchase order for portable evaporative coolers at Wilson Park Gymnasium, was pulled for separate discussion and then approved 5-0. At the close of the meeting, following a reconvened closed session, council reported that the city manager was placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. Item 12, a discussion on facilities honoring Cesar Chavez, received no council direction and died; item 11, scheduling public hearings for the FY 2026-27 budget, was tabled to be returned with printed dates.

The council approved a $101,500 contract with County Leak Services for repairs at the Luders Park city pool (5-0), though the structured agenda records two identical $101,500 line items for the same vendor under the same agenda item—one unrestricted and one from Measure A—flagging a combined $203,000 attributed to County Leak Services; no council member raised this discrepancy. Also approved were an $80,000 two-year contract with Mariposa Eco Consulting Inc. for SB 1383 compliance services (5-0) and a $50,000 amendment to an existing Cintas Corporation uniform services contract (5-0), with the structured agenda similarly showing two $50,000 Cintas line items under the single item—a pattern flagged as a possible split payment keeping each entry below the $100,000 threshold. Items 10 and 11 initiated FY2024-25 assessment proceedings for the lighting/landscape district ($4.2 million) and sewer service charges ($913,506); these are revenue collections, not new spending approvals. Personnel Board business generated the evening's most procedurally contested votes: Jennifer Grant was removed 5-0, then reappointed 5-0 after the city attorney stated that a verbal motion withdrawal does not reverse a vote already taken; Yawande Ayodele was removed 4-0-1 (Bowers abstaining); Merkelyn Black was appointed 4-1 (Spicer dissenting); and Alicia Rivers was appointed on a 2-1-2 vote (Bowers no, Darden and Sharif abstaining). Twelve residents spoke during public comment, the bulk of which addressed Long Beach Boulevard prostitution, Compton Creek maintenance, and trash pickup reliability—none addressed the spending items on the agenda.
