Contemporary reporting records a 7-0 vote.

Record Notes

This Santa Monica event is retained in CCR because it now has two independently documented Culver City bridges rather than mere geographic or thematic similarity. First, Kimley-Horn has a direct Culver City on-call professional-services relationship: Culver City approved a $119,600 task order for West Washington Signal Fiber Upgrades on 2025-09-08 and a $67,530 fire-station alarm planning task order on 2025-06-09; an older Ivy Station project file also identifies Kimley-Horn and Lowe in traffic-study materials for the Washington/National TOD. Second, Ellis Raskin, a Santa Monica councilmember, is named with Hanson Bridgett as counsel for Friends and Families for MOVE Culver City in the 2025 appellate opinion and is Santa Monica's alternate on the 2026 Westside Cities COG roster alongside Culver City delegate Freddy Puza and alternate Bryan Fish. These facts establish professional and institutional overlap only. They do not establish coordinated procurement, shared decision-making, or that the Culver City litigation influenced Santa Monica's 2026 contract. The underlying 2022 Santa Monica LRSP was prepared by Nelson\Nygaard, not Kimley-Horn.
