SUBJECT: QUARTERLY WILLIAMS UNIFORM COMPLAINT REPORT SUMMARY
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Board of Education receive for information and approve the Quarterly
Report on Williams Uniform Complaints Summary (Education Code 35186) and its submission
to the Los Angeles County Office of Education.
BACKGROUND
Elizer Williams, et. al. vs. State of California was filed as a class action lawsuit in the year 2000,
in San Francisco County Superior Court. The plaintiffs included nearly 100 San Francisco
County students, who filed suit against the State of California and state education agencies,
including the Department of Education (CDE). The basis of their lawsuit involved state agencies
failing to provide public school students with equal access to instructional materials, safe and
decent school facilities, and qualified teachers.
The Williams case was settled in 2004, resulting in the State of California allocating $138
million in additional funding for standards-aligned instructional materials for schools in the first,
second and third ranks (known as deciles), determined through the 2003 Academic Performance
Index (API) Base. The legislated settlement was implemented through Senate Bill (SB) 6, SB
550, Assembly Bill (AB) 1550, AB 2727 and AB 3001 in August 2004. Up to 2.3 million
California public school students may benefit from funding related to the Williams case
settlement.
As a result of the Williams case, all school districts must:
1. Modify the current uniform complaint process to help identify and resolve any
deficiencies related to instructional materials, teacher vacancies and misassignments and
emergency or urgent facility conditions that pose a threat to the health and safety of
pupils or staff. The Board of Education adopted this policy on August 5, 2005.
2. Provide quarterly reports to the Board of Education and the County Superintendent of
Schools on the nature and resolution of all complaints, including the number of
complaints by general subject area, and the number of resolved and unresolved
S-05-19/20
Page 2 of 2
complaints. Complaints and written responses shall be available as public records.
3. Post a notice in each classroom in each school notifying parents (a) that there are
sufficient textbooks and instructional materials for use in class and to take home to
complete homework; (b) that school facilities must be clean, safe and maintained in good
repair; (c) that teacher vacancies are reported by January 31, filled with credentialed
teachers and assigned appropriately, and (d) the location where a complaint form may be
obtained.
4. Quarterly reports are due to the Board of Education and the County Superintendent of
Schools each year:
First Quarter July 1 – September 30 Report due by October 31
Second Quarter October 1 – December 31 Report due by January 31
Third Quarter January 1 – March 31 Report due by April 30
Fourth Quarter April 1 – June 30 Report due by July 31
There were 0 complaints filed for this past Quarter.

SUBJECT: RESOLUTION #02:19/20 - RESOLUTION REQUESTING BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS OF THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA TO
ESTABLISH A TAX RATE FOR BONDS OF THE HERMOSA BEACH CITY
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT EXPECTED TO BE SOLD DURING
FISCAL YEAR 2019-20, AND AUTHORIZING NECESSARY ACTIONS IN
CONNECTION THEREWITH
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Board of Education approve of Resolution #02:19/20, Resolution
Requesting Board of Supervisors of the County of Los Angeles, California to Establish a Tax
Rate for Bonds of the Hermosa Beach City Elementary School District Expected to be Sold
During Fiscal Year 2019-20, and Authorizing Necessary Actions in Connection Therewith.
BACKGROUND
An election was held in the Hermosa Beach City Elementary School District on June 7, 2016
(“Measure S”) for the issuance and sale of general obligation bonds of the District for various
school facility improvements. The schedule for issuing the next series of bonds authorized under
Measure S (the “Bonds”) currently anticipates completing the sale of the Bonds after the time
that the Auditor-Controller of the County of Los Angeles (the “County”) calculates the taxes to
be levied for District bonded debt during fiscal year 2019-20. Therefore, Resolution No.
02:19/20 is being brought before the Board of Education now to formally request that, pursuant
to Education Code Sections 15252-15254, the Board of Supervisors of the County adopt a tax
rate and levy taxes for the Bonds. The tax rate will be based upon an estimated debt service
schedule prepared by the District’s Municipal Advisor, Isom Advisors, A Division of Urban
Futures, Inc. The Bonds are expected to be issued in the amount of $23,000,000. The
Resolution further authorizes the District officials to file a certified copy of the Resolution with
the Board of Supervisors of the County and to deliver copies of the Resolution to the Auditor-
Controller and Treasurer and Tax Collector of the County.
Adoption of this Resolution is necessary to ensure that property taxes are levied during fiscal
year 2019-20 for the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are expected to be sold during Fiscal
Year 2019-20.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund resulting from the issuance of the Bonds.

RESOLUTION REQUESTING BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF THE
COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES TO ESTABLISH A TAX RATE FOR BONDS
OF THE HERMOSA BEACH CITY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT
EXPECTED TO BE SOLD DURING FISCAL YEAR 2019-20, AND
AUTHORIZING NECESSARY ACTIONS IN CONNECTION THEREWITH.
WHEREAS, this Board of Education (the “Board”) of the Hermosa Beach City Elementary
School District (the “District”), located in Los Angeles County (the “County”), California, is
authorized to, and intends to, issue a series of its bonds for purposes authorized by the voters of the
District on June 7, 2016 (“Measure S”);
WHEREAS, the Board of Supervisors of the County is required to take action approving a
tax rate for payment of indebtedness of the District during Fiscal Year 2019-20, and it is the
responsibility of the Auditor-Controller of the County to calculate the tax rate for the Board of
Supervisors’ action thereon;
WHEREAS, this Board has determined that it is not possible or advisable to issue the next
series of the District’s bonds in time to permit the Auditor-Controller of the County, or other
appropriate County official, to calculate the tax rate necessary to pay debt service on such bonds in
order that such tax rate may be reflected on 2019-20 property tax bills of taxpayers in the District;
WHEREAS, the Education Code of the State of California provides that the Board of
Supervisors of each county shall annually, at the time of making the levy of taxes for county
purposes, estimate the amount of money required to meet the payment of the principal of and
interest on the bonds authorized by the electors of the District and not sold, and which the Board of
Education of the District informs the Board of Supervisors in their belief will be sold before the
next tax levy, and further provides that the Board of Supervisors shall levy a tax sufficient to pay
the principal and interest so estimated; and
WHEREAS, this Board deems it necessary and desirable to issue one series of the District’s
bonds authorized by Measure S during Fiscal Year 2019-20 pursuant to applicable provisions of the
Government Code, and that the County levy a tax for payment on debt service estimated to come
due on such bonds during Fiscal Year 2019-20, and believes that such bonds will be sold during
Fiscal Year 2019-20.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF
HERMOSA BEACH CITY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DISTRICT:
Section 1. Recitals. All of the above recitals are correct.
Section 2. Estimate of Tax Levy. The Superintendent of the District or such other
officer of the District as the Superintendent may designate in writing (each, an “Authorized District
Representative”), are hereby authorized and directed to prepare, or cause the municipal advisor to
the District to prepare, an estimate of all payments of principal and interest which shall become due
on a series of Measure S bonds of the District expected to be sold during Fiscal Year 2019-20, and
2 4840-8081-1162v2/024502-0003
to cause the debt service schedule so prepared to be provided to the Board of Supervisors and the
Auditor-Controller of the County and to any other officers of the County responsible for preparing
the tax levy for bonds of the District and for levying the tax. The District estimates that the sale of
its Measure S bonds shall be in the amount of $23,000,000, an amount within the District’s
authorized but unissued bonds for Measure S, and are expected to be sold in September 2019.
Section 3. Request to County to Levy Tax. The Board of Supervisors of the County is
hereby requested, in accordance with Education Code Sections 15252-15254, to adopt a tax rate for
bonds of the District expected to be sold during Fiscal Year 2019-20, based upon the estimated debt
service schedule to be prepared in accordance with Section 2 above, and to levy a tax in Fiscal Year
2019-20 on all taxable property in the District sufficient to pay the estimated debt service for such
bonds prior to the receipt of tax proceeds in Fiscal Year 2020-21. The proceeds of such tax shall be
deposited into the debt service fund of the District established pursuant to the Education Code for
bonds of the District.
Section 4: Application of Tax Proceeds. In the event that the bonds of the District are
not sold during Fiscal Year 2019-20, or sold in such amount and on such terms that the proceeds of
the tax requested in Section 3 hereof, or any portion thereof, are not required for payment of debt
service due on the series of Measure S bonds expected to be sold, or payment of other outstanding
bonds of the District payable from the debt service fund of the District, this Board hereby requests
that the Auditor-Controller, or other appropriate official of the County cause the remaining proceeds
of the tax to be held in the District’s debt service fund and applied to debt service on outstanding
bonds of the District.
Section 5. Filing of Resolution. The Secretary of this Board is hereby authorized and
directed to file forthwith a certified copy of this Resolution with the Clerk of the Board of
Supervisors of the County, and to cause copies of this Resolution to be delivered to the Auditor-
Controller and the Treasurer-Tax Collector of the County.
Section 6. Further Authorization. The President of this Board, the Secretary of this
Board, or any Authorized District Representative, shall be and they are hereby authorized and
directed to take such additional actions consistent with the intent of this Resolution in connection
with the sale of the bonds of the District, which any of them deem necessary and desirable to
accomplish the purpose hereof.

If any designated lead or key person fails to perform to the satisfaction of the DISTRICT, then upon written notice the CONSULTANT shall immediately remove that person from the PROJECT and provide a temporary replacement. CONSULTANT shall within thirty (30) work days, provide a permanent replacement person acceptable to the DISTRICT. DISTRICT may condition its approval of replacement personnel upon a reasonable transition period wherein new personnel will learn the PROJECT and get “up to speed” at CONSULTANT’s cost.
6. CONSULTANT represents that the CONSULTANT has no existing interest and will not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, which would create a conflict of interest in violation of any applicable laws, and that no person having any such interest shall be employed by CONSULTANT.

Pending resolution of this dispute, CONSULTANT agrees to continue the work diligently to completion. If the dispute is not resolved, CONSULTANT agrees it will neither rescind the AGREEMENT nor stop the progress of the work, but CONSULTANT’s sole remedy shall be to submit such controversy to determination by a court having competent jurisdiction of the dispute, after the PROJECT has been completed, and not before. The PARTIES may agree in writing to submit any dispute between the PARTIES to arbitration.

c. If the DISTRICT requests additional shifts to complete the services articulated in Articles I and II where the requests for additional shifts do not arise from the direct or indirect negligence, errors or omissions on the part of CONSULTANT. The CONSULTANT’s compensation is expressly conditioned on the lack of fault of the CONSULTANT.
d. Providing any other services not otherwise included in this AGREEMENT or not customarily furnished in accordance with the generally accepted practice in the CONSULTANT’s industry.
ARTICLE VIII REIMBURSABLE XPENSES

a. Workers Compensation and Employers Liability: Any and all claims under Workers’ Compensation acts and other employee benefit acts with respect to CONSULTANT’s employees or CONSULTANT’s subcontractor’s employees arising out of CONSULTANT’s work under this AGREEMENT, except for liability resulting from the sole or active negligence, or willful misconduct of the DISTRICT, its officers, employees, agents or independent consultants who are directly employed by the DISTRICT; and
b. General Liability: Liability for damages for (1) death or bodily injury to person; (2) injury to, loss or theft of property; (3) any failure or alleged failure to comply with any provision of law or (4) any other loss, damage or expense arising under either (1), (2), or (3) above, sustained by the DISTRICT, or any person, firm or corporation employed by the CONSULTANT or the DISTRICT upon or in connection with this AGREEMENT or the PROJECT, except for liability resulting from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the DISTRICT, its officers, employees, agents or independent consultants who are directly employed by the DISTRICT. The CONSULTANT, at its own expense, cost, and risk, shall defend any and all claims, actions, suits, or other proceedings that may be brought or instituted against the DISTRICT, its officers, agents or employees, on any such claim or liability, and shall pay or satisfy any judgment that may be rendered against the DISTRICT, its officers, agents or employees in any action, suit or other proceedings as a result thereof; and
c. Professional Liability: Any loss, injury to or death of persons or damage to property caused by any act, neglect, default or omission of the CONSULTANT, or any person, firm or corporation employed by the CONSULTANT, either directly or by independent contract, including all damages due to loss or theft, sustained by any person, firm or corporation including the DISTRICT, arising out of, or in any way connected with the Construction Management Services, including injury or damage either on or off DISTRICT property; but not for any loss, injury, death or damages caused by sole negligence or willful misconduct of the DISTRICT.
d. The PARTIES understand and agree that Article IX, Section 1 of this AGREEMENT shall be the sole indemnity, as defined by California Civil Code § 2772, governing this AGREEMENT. Any other indemnity that may be attached to this AGREEMENT as an Exhibit shall be void and unenforceable between the PARTIES.
e. Any attempt to limit the CONSULTANT’s liability to the DISTRICT in an attached exhibit shall be void and unenforceable between the DISTRICT and the
10
CONSULTANT. In no event shall the CONSULTANT’s liability be limited to the amount of the CONSULTANT’s fees for the PROJECT or any other amount.
2. CONSULTANT shall purchase and maintain policies of insurance with an insurer or insurers, authorized to do business in the State of California and acceptable to DISTRICT which will protect CONSULTANT and DISTRICT from claims which may arise out of or result from CONSULTANT’s actions or inactions relating to the AGREEMENT, whether such actions or inactions be by themselves or by any subcontractor or by anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable.

Such insurance shall be maintained during the term of this AGREEMENT and renewed for a period of at least five (5) years thereafter and/or at rates consistent with the time of execution of this AGREEMENT adjusted for inflation. In the event that CONSULTANT subcontracts any portion of CONSULTANT’s duties, CONSULTANT shall require any such subcontractor to purchase and maintain insurance coverage as provided in this subparagraph. Failure to maintain professional liability insurance is a material breach of this AGREEMENT and grounds for immediate termination.
d. Valuable Document Insurance. The CONSULTANT shall carry adequate insurance on all drawings, specifications and reports as may be required to protect the DISTRICT in the amount of its full equity in those drawings, specifications and reports, and shall file with the DISTRICT a certificate of that insurance.

of that insurance shall be paid by the CONSULTANT, and the DISTRICT shall be named as a loss payee.
e. Each policy of insurance required in Article IX, Section 2(b) above shall name DISTRICT and its officers, agents and employees as additional insureds; shall state that, with respect to the operations of CONSULTANT hereunder, such policy is primary and any insurance carried by DISTRICT is excess and non- contributory with such primary insurance; shall state that not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice shall be given to DISTRICT prior to cancellation; and, shall waive all rights of subrogation.

f. In the event that CONSULTANT subcontracts any portion of CONSULTANT’s duties, CONSULTANT shall require any such subcontractor to purchase and maintain insurance coverage for the types of insurance referenced in Article IX, Sections 2(a), (b), (c), and (d), in amounts which are appropriate with respect to that subcontractor’s part of work which shall in no event be less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.

HERMOSA BEACH CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT
TO: Board of Education
FROM: Patricia Escalante
District Superintendent
DATE: July 10, 2019
SUBJECT: 2019-2020 DECLARATION OF NEED FOR FULLY QUALIFIED
EDUCATORS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Board of Education of the Hermosa Beach City School District
hereby declares that there is an insufficient number of certificated persons who meet the district’s
specific employment criteria for the Crosscultural, Language and Academic Development
Certificate (CLAD).
BACKGROUND
At times it is necessary for the school district to obtain or renew emergency permits for teachers
to teach in subject areas where there is a critical shortage of fully credentialed people or for some
long-term substitute teachers. We are submitting the Declaration of Need in order to issue a new
emergency permit for a teacher to obtain an English Learner Authorization. The Commission on
Teacher Credentialing has made it possible for districts to do this once per year with a
declaration from the Board.
The Declaration of Need will remain in effect until June 30, 2020.
