C. RESOLUTION NO. 25-40 – A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SAN GABRIEL, CALIFORNIA, DIRECTING THE RECORDED
JUDGMENT AS A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT – 573 W. BROADWAY
On September 23, 2024, the City initiated a civil nuisance abatement action
against Charles Kwang (“Defendant”), owner of the property located at 573 W.
Broadway in the City of San Gabriel (“Property”). The City had previously
attempted to informally resolve the violations on the Property via Notices of
Violations and administrative actions, but the Defendant failed to abate all of
the violations. On May 27, 2025, the City Attorney’s Office obtained a judgment
in its favor and against the Defendant. The Court issued a judgment in favor of
the City, granting the City’s request for injunction, commanding the Defendant
to correct the violations, and awarded the City $15,641.64 in attorneys’ fees and
staff enforcement costs. The City has recorded the judgment against the
Property and may now proceed to collect the judgment. The City Attorney’s
Office seeks City Council direction in recovering the judgment awarded by the
Court. The City may collect on the recorded judgment by foreclosing on the
lien through the special assessment process. The costs are reviewed and placed
on the tax roll, as a special assessment through the adoption of a Resolution.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: Not a Project as
defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 25-40, Directing
the Recorded Judgment as a Special Assessment. |

B. ORDINANCE NO. 722 EXTENDING A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR
PLANNING CASE NO. PL16-162 FOR A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, STREET
VACATION, AND TENTATIVE TRACT MAP NO. 80292 FOR A MIXED-USE
PROJECT AT 220 SOUTH SAN GABRIEL BOULEVARD – FIRST AMENDMENT
TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
On March 17, 2020, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 651 approving a
Development Agreement, Planned Development, Street Vacation, and
Tentative Tract Map to allow for the development of a 153 residential
condominium units and 34,835 square feet of retail and restaurant mixed-use
project at 220 South San Gabriel Boulevard. On August 28, 2025, the City
received a request from the Developer, San Gabriel Square, LLC., to extend the
term of the Planned Development and Development Agreement for the project
for an additional two years from April 17, 2026, to April 17, 2028. Pursuant to
section 5.02 of the Development Agreement, the City Council has the authority
to approve an amendment extending the term of the Development Agreement.
There is no fiscal impact as it relates to this request for extension. Should the
extension not be approved, this project would most likely not move forward,
reducing the potential tax revenue for the City.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: The Mitigated
Negative Declaration adopted in conjunction with the Project remains valid and
in effect and continues to be the proper and legal environmental document for
the Project.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Conduct the public hearing and discuss proposed Ordinance No. 722;
2. Waive full reading and introduce Ordinance No. 722 by title only:

A. REPEAL AND RE-ADOPT – AMENDMENT OF AN EXISTING PLANNED
DEVELOPMENT OVERLAY ZONE, DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, TENTATIVE
TRACT MAP, AND REVISED INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE
DECLARATION FOR 201-217 S. SAN GABRIEL BOULEVARD
PLANNING CASE NOS: ZC22-001, DA22-001, TMAP22-015, AND IS/MND
APPLICANT: EVERARDO GARCIA OF LCRA
[ORDINANCE NO. 723] [RESOLUTION NO. 25-39]
This is a request to repeal and readopt an amendment to an existing Planned
Development Overlay Zone (PD) over an existing C-1 (Retail Commercial)
zoning designation of the subject site, a Development Agreement (DA),
Tentative Tract Map No. 73153, and revised Initial Study/Mitigated Negative
Declaration to allow for the subdivision of air space for residential
condominium units within a mixed-use development. The property is
designated General Commercial in the General Plan and zoned Retail
Commercial/Planned Development Overlay (C-1/PD). The project was reviewed
and approved by the City Council on January 16, 2024. The environmental
determination was challenged. The project is brought back to provide
additional data and analyses on biological resources and health risks. No
changes have been made to the project scope and design since January 16,
2024. The project would help maintain a balanced and vibrant economy by
developing a neglected and under-utilized site with a new development. The
applicant will pay a number of fees to the City, including plan check, permits,
and development impact fees. The City will additionally be in receipt of property
tax by the sale and improvement of the project site. The Fiscal Year 2025-2026
Adopted Budget includes the cost for required legal publication (Account No.
121-702-00-65-000) and codification (Account No. 121-702-00-22-000) of the
ordinance, if adopted by the City Council.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: The proposed
project was reviewed for compliance with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA). The City prepared an Initial Study (IS) to determine the proposed
project’s potential impact on the environment. The City has determined that the
project may have a significant effect on the environment, but by implementing
the identified mitigation measures, the project’s impacts could be reduced to less
than significant levels. Ten mitigation measures have been identified to reduce
these potential impacts to a less than significant level. The Mitigation Monitoring
and Reporting Program (MMRP), which contains the full text of the mitigation
measures, as well as identifies the responsible party for implementation and
timing, is provided as Attachment D.
The revised Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration includes additional
analyses for biological resources and health risk assessment. Based on the field
reconnaissance survey, database and literature searches, and overall assessment,
the proposed project area development is not likely to impact sensitive biological
resources with the incorporation of mitigation measures. Additionally, the
quantitative results presented in the health risk assessment report support the
conclusion that project-related impacts related to carcinogenic TAC exposure
would be less than significant and no mitigation measures are required.
The 30-day public review period of the IS/MND was initiated on September 3,
2025 and ended on October 2, 2025. A notice regarding the CEQA comment
period was posted with the Los Angeles County Recorder, published in the San
Gabriel Sun newspaper, and distributed to relevant regulatory agencies.
Additionally, a notice was mailed to owners and occupants within 500-feet of the
project site.
Recommended Action:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 25-39 repealing Resolution No. 23-73 and adopting
a Revised Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigated Monitoring and
Reporting Program and approving Planning Case No. TMAP22-015 a
Revised Tentative Tract Map No. 73153 for a mixed-use project; and
5
2. Waive full reading and introduce Ordinance No. 723 by title only:

C. JANITORIAL CONTRACT AGREEMENT WITH JAN PRO COMMERCIAL
CLEANING FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF $30,684
The San Gabriel Police Department seeks City Council approval to enter into a
new contract agreement with Jan Pro Commercial Cleaning to provide daily
janitorial services for the Police Department facilities including the recentlyadded exterior locker rooms. The annual contract amount for Jan Pro
Commercial Cleaning is $30,684. Funds for daily janitorial services are currently
budgeted in the Police Department’s contractual expenditure account (121751-00-22-000 under ‘Janitorial Services’) at $18,450. This new contract
represents an anticipated cost increase of $12,234. A mid-year budget
adjustment may be required to cover this increase unless savings from other
contractual obligations within the Police Department’s budget are identified to
offset the additional cost.
