Council defers Smoky Hollow parking decision after interrupted motion; staff to return in six months
Summary
After staff presented four cost options for phase 2 of the Smoky Hollow parking project, a motion to approve the lowest-cost option failed for lack of a second; council directed staff to return in six months for reevaluation.
The El Segundo City Council on Feb. 4 did not approve a funding and design option for phase 2 of the Smoky Hollow parking project and instead directed staff to return in six months with a reevaluation.
Public works director Elias Sassoon and project consultant Giuseppe Kenzoneri of KOA Corporation presented four project cost alternatives. Council member Chris Pimentel (Mayor) moved to approve Alternative 1, which carried an estimated design and construction cost of $858,000, and to follow that with an application for Measure M funding for Alternative 4, which had an estimated design and construction cost of $6,600,000. The motion did not receive a second. Because no second was recorded in the transcript excerpt, the motion did not proceed and council directed staff to return in six months to reevaluate the project.
The transcript did not record a roll-call vote or further motion on an alternative option. No appropriation or funding commitment was made at the Feb. 4 meeting. The decision to seek Measure M funding for the larger alternative was discussed but not advanced because the motion failed to proceed.
