I. PURPOSE
City of Adelanto (City) is seeking to retain the services of an experienced and professional engineering firm with expertise in water resources, and sanitary sewer master planning GIS, and experience in developing a road map for the Development Impact Fee (DIF) to formulate the cost of existing and needed infrastructure to serve the developers looking to develop in the City of Adelanto. The City’s water or sewer master plans were last updated in 2008 and expects the consultant to have extensive background in the municipal engineering to assist the City in creating comprehensive water and sewer masterplans that reflect of the existing system and projected improvements needed to support the next 20 years of growth. The City may be limited in having adequate record drawings, We expect the consultant to have the ability to get most of the information by field walks and/or meetings with City staff and the PERC Water operational staff to accurately prepare a comprehensive document defining city’s existing infrastructure and proposed improvements. In addition, we expect the consultant to establish a 20-year capital improvement program for both the water and sewer systems. The primary element in the water master plan update will be an accurate record of existing facilities and system operation at the present time and future operations with added infrastructure.
One of the elements in the water master plan update and new sewer master plan will be the development of a calibrated InfoWater water model and construction of a InfoSewer sewer model for the sewer system, and incorporate water improvements into the model constructed since 2008 and not in the existing water master plan.
II. BACKGROUND
The City of Adelanto (City), California, population 33,391 is located in the High Desert in the Victor Valley region of the Mojave Desert and is situated along the Highway 395 corridor, which was recently widened to help the with City’s expected growth over the next few years.
The City is a Charter City that operates under a Council-Manager form of government.
The Mayor and four City Council members are selected at large with overlapping fouryear terms. The Mayor and City Council appoints the City Manager and City Attorney.

14 perform or properly perform any such duty, obligation, service or task), an Event of Default on the part of CONSULTANT will include, but will not be limited to the following: (i) CONSULTANT’s refusal or failure to perform any of the services or tasks called for under the Scope of Work; (ii) CONSULTANT’s failure to fulfill or perform its obligations under this Agreement within the specified time or if no time is specified, within a reasonable time; (iii) CONSULTANT’s and/or its employees’ disregard or violation of any federal, state, local law, rule, procedure or regulation; (iv) the initiation of proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, or similar legislation as relates to CONSULTANT, whether voluntary of involuntary; (v) CONSULTANT’s refusal or failure to perform or observe any covenant, condition, obligation or provision of this Agreement; and/or (vii) CITY’s discovery that a statement representation or warranty by CONSULTANT relating to this Agreement is false, misleading or erroneous in any material respect.
C. CITY will cure any Event of Default asserted by CONSULTANT within fortyfive (45) calendar days of CONSULTANT’s issuance of a Default Notice, unless the Event of Default cannot reasonably be cured within the 45-day cure period. Prior to the expiration of the 45-day cure period, CITY may submit a written request for additional time to cure the Event of Default upon a showing that CITY has commenced its efforts to cure the Event of Default and that the Event of Default cannot be reasonably cured within the 45-day cure period. The foregoing notwithstanding, an Event of Default dealing with CITY’s failure to timely pay any undisputed sums to CONSULTANT as provided under Section 1.4, above, will be cured by CITY within five (5) calendar days from the date of CONSULTANT’s Default Notice to CITY.
D. CITY, in its sole and absolute discretion, may also immediately suspend CONSULTANT’s performance under this Agreement pending
CONSULTANT’s cure of any Event of Default by giving CONSULTANT written notice of CITY’s intent to suspend CONSULTANT’s performance (hereinafter, a “Suspension Notice”). CITY may issue the Suspension Notice at any time upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. Upon such suspension, CONSULTANT will be compensated only for those services and tasks which have been rendered by CONSULTANT to the reasonable satisfaction of CITY up to the effective date of the suspension. No actual or asserted breach of this Agreement on the part of CITY will operate to prohibit or otherwise restrict CITY’s ability to suspend this Agreement as provided herein.
E. No waiver of any Event of Default or breach under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent Event of Default or breach.
No waiver, benefit, privilege, or service voluntarily given or performed by a Party will give the other Party any contractual rights by custom, estoppel, or otherwise.
F. The duties and obligations imposed under this Agreement and the rights and remedies available hereunder will be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or 479
15 available by law. In addition to any other remedies available to CITY at law or under this Agreement in the event of any breach of this Agreement, CITY, in its sole and absolute discretion, may also pursue any one or more of the following remedies:
i. Upon written notice to CONSULTANT, the CITY may immediately terminate this Agreement in whole or in part;
ii. Upon written notice to CONSULTANT, the CITY may extend the time of performance;
iii. The CITY may proceed by appropriate court action to enforce the terms of the Agreement to recover damages for CONSULTANT’s breach of the Agreement or to terminate the Agreement; or
iv. The CITY may exercise any other available and lawful right or remedy.
CONSULTANT will be liable for all legal fees plus other costs and expenses that CITY incurs upon a breach of this Agreement or in the CITY’s exercise of its remedies under this Agreement.
G. In the event CITY is in breach of this Agreement, CONSULTANT’s sole remedy will be the suspension or termination of this Agreement and/or the recovery of any unpaid sums lawfully owed to CONSULTANT under this Agreement for completed services and tasks.
5.3 SCOPE OF WAIVER: No waiver of any default or breach under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other default or breach, whether of the same or other covenant, warranty, agreement, term, condition, duty or requirement contained in this Agreement. No waiver, benefit, privilege, or service voluntarily given or performed by a Party will give the other Party any contractual rights by custom, estoppel, or otherwise.
5.4 SURVIVING ARTICLES, SECTIONS AND PROVISIONS: The termination of this Agreement pursuant to any provision of this Article or by normal expiration of its term or any extension thereto will not operate to terminate any Article, Section or provision contained herein which provides that it will survive the termination or normal expiration of this Agreement.

Substitute the following sections in the Scope of Work for the City of Adelanto Water Model.
I. PURPOSE
City of Adelanto (City) is seeking to retain the services of an experienced and professional engineering firm with expertise in hydraulic modeling and GIS, to assist the City in updating their Domestic Water Master Plan (DWMP). The City’s water master plan was last updated in 2008, and development has occurred since then. In order to update the 2008 DWMP and identify projected improvements needed to support the next 20 years of growth the City needs a current hydraulic model. The City may be limited in having adequate record drawings; therefore, the City expects the consultant to have the ability to get much of the information by field walks and/or meetings with City staff.
One of the elements in the DWMP update will be the development of a calibrated InfoWater water model. That model will include all water facilities 12-inch and larger from the water model contained in the 2008 DWMP, and the 12-inch and larger facilities added to the water system since 2008.
II. BACKGROUND
The City of Adelanto (City), California, population 33,391 is located in the High Desert in the Victor Valley region of the Mojave Desert and is situated along the Highway 395 corridor, which was recently widened to help the with City’s expected growth over the next few years.
The City is a Charter City that operates under a Council-Manager form of government.
The Mayor and four City Council members are selected at large with overlapping four-year terms. The Mayor and City Council appoints the City Manager and City Attorney. The City is divided into departments that provide a full range of municipal services, including administration, public works, community safety, and community development. Information 491
2 regarding the City and its organization, such as governmental structure, services provided, the current Operating and Capital Budgets and Annual Financial Reports are available on the City’s website at www.ci.adelanto.ca.us.
III. SCOPE OF SERVICES – DOMESTIC WATER SYSTEM HYDRAULIC MODEL The following is a proposed scope of work for the development of the City of Adelanto’s water system computer model.
Task 1 – Project Management
The objective of this task is to plan and execute the project as described above, in accordance with the schedule, budget, and quality expectations that are established. This task includes the following project management work activities:
a) Create and maintain a work plan and project instructions to include organization, roles, responsibilities, schedule, budget, and staff plan for execution of the project; the work plan and project instructions will include a QA/QC plan. b) Attend regular monthly meetings with the City's project manager to discuss schedule, budget, the direction of the project and any needed information or data. c) Monitor project progress including work completed, work remaining, budget expended, schedule, estimated cost of work remaining and estimated cost at completion; manage activities within total project budget. d) Monitor project activities for potential changes, anticipate changes whenever possible, and with City approval, modify project tasks, task budgets, and approach to keep the overall project within budget and on schedule. e) Manage the quality control review of all work activities and project deliverables; note that execution of the QA/QC program will be completed under the appropriate task.
Deliverables:
• Consultant shall submit to CITY staff the following for review:
• Prepare and submit monthly narrative report, invoice, and schedule.
Task 2 - Resource Documents and Data Review
Consultant shall review all existing water resources documents including GIS data and mapping, water supply information, previous hydraulic models if any, water supply and distribution information, and any other relevant data and documents provided by the City or obtained as a result of field walk and interviewing City staff.
*Note for Consultants, during the proposal phase, Consultants will be provided a copy of the water system data and mapping, water supply information, and any other relevant data and documents will be provided by the City after the Consultant is selected and approved by the City Council.
The information provided by the City may be dated or missing some pipelines and infrastructure.
Therefore, it is expected that the consultant is experienced, and has the working knowledge of, how a water distribution system works including storage reservoirs, pumping stations, water Wells, pressure reducing stations, and distribution/transmission pipelines.
Task 3 – Update Existing Backbone Water System GIS Map
The purpose of this task is to provide the relevant background information for the water system analysis and planning. The Consultant will update the water system description to include any 492
3 updates in:
• Existing and future water pressure zones and boundaries • Existing and future wall supplies (i.e. new wells, inter-agency connections) For Task 3 the Consultant shall:
• Catalog the existing water facilities 12-inch and larger. • Review GIS database and as-built drawings for existing water facilities 12-inch and larger. • Consultant will perform data conversion/update of the City’s water distribution system into ESRI’s geodatabase format. This will involve collecting all source documents (e.g., as-built drawings, field notes, system maps), performing data conversion/update for all of the water pipelines 12-inch and larger (Backbone System) in the water distribution system. The GIS attributes that will be required for the Backbone System should integrate both tabular database attributes (e.g., pipe size, material, and date of installation) with the geographical or spatial component. • The GIS should be structured in such a way to provide seamless and efficient integration to support the update of the City’s hydraulic model using Innovyze’s InfoWater software. • Develop and provide a testing and training plan for use and operation of the new GISbased hydraulic modeling application system. (Assuming 2-4 personnel staff to be trained to use modeling application and two full day training sessions).
Consultant to assume 100 hours for reviewing all documents, meeting, and discussing existing water system and reviewing GIS database and software, and update the City’s GIS database for the Backbone System only.
Deliverable: Technical Memorandum describing data reviewed and update relevant GIS data to conduct Task 5.
Task 4 - Review Water Demand Estimates and Forecast
The Consultant shall review the water demands occurring at present time, and at buildout of City’s service area through 2040, provided by the City’s Project Manager. These demands will be used in evaluating the Backbone System to determine if there any current hydraulic deficiencies. The Consultant will be provided with demands under ultimate build out conditions, and will use that information to identify additional facilities, 12-inch and larger needed to accommodate the future build out condition. This would also include identifying additional water supply (i.e., wells, or interagency connections), reservoirs, pump stations, and other appurtenances.
Task 5 - Update and Calibrate Water System Hydraulic Model The Consultant will utilize InfoWater for the hydraulic modeling task. A similar modeling software may be proposed, so long as it is fully compatible and integrable with City’s Esri ArcGIS environment. Ultimate acceptance of proposed software rests with City staff. Consultant will update sewer system utilizing the proposed software.
Sufficient detail should be added to identify hydraulic constants and predict pipe flows, fire flow, system pressures, and storage water levels. Model verification and calibration shall be performed for summer and winter scenarios. This will include review and verification of current demands provided by the City, water system operational conditions, and calibration of the model under steady state conditions using measured flow and residual pressures measured during fire hydrant testing.
Model testing and calibration will be done in accordance with the American Water Works 493
4 Association M32 manual. Further detail and specific model capabilities will be developed between the Consultant and City once the contract has been awarded. Following calibration and validation of the hydraulic model, one day of training, or more as needed, will be administered to City staff so that sufficient understanding of model parameters, assumptions, outputs, etc. is achieved.
Deliverables: One full InfoWater license, fully updated and calibrated InfoWater model, eight hours or more of training for City staff on modifying and using the InfoWater model.
Task 6 – Water Distribution System Analysis
Consultant, working City staff and the City’s Project Manager, will develop a series of system performance criteria to analyze existing and future water system infrastructure using the InfoWater model.
Specific scenarios of analysis will be defined during the scoping exercise (assume up to 8 modelling scenarios).
Task 7 – Water System Graphics
The Consultant shall provide pdf maps of the existing water distribution system, distribution system at build-out, and a pressure zone map. These will be used by the City in developing a new Domestic Water Master Plan as report graphics. Assume a total of five maps.
Task 8 – Ongoing Modeling Support
Consultant shall include in their budget proposal a total of 40 hours to be used for on-going modeling support. This support may include, but be limited to, assisting with software updates, running simulations to determine impacts of new developments, training, and other support as needed.

3 WEBB recently prepared the Water Master Plan for the Jurupa Community Services District (District). This project is an update of the 2005 Water Master Plan with the goal to provide a comprehensive Water Master Plan that enables the District to strategize planning and budgeting efforts to implement water system enhancements to maintain a high level of distribution, reliability, and efficiency for current and future demands and emergency situations.
Experience in water master planning is highly desirable to secure the District’s long-term and sustainable water supply and infrastructure.
Key components in the development of this Water Master Plan update include, but are not limited to:
• Planning for the District’s long-term water supply needs • Develop the District’s potable water system hydraulic model • Review the District’s water quality monitoring plan and evaluate it for conformance to regulatory requirements
• Review of existing, new, and upcoming water system laws and regulations, paying particular attention to water quality laws and regulations and their effect on the District’s water system
• Development of a Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and implementation schedule, a financial plan to ensure the effective management, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation, replacement, and development of the District’s water facilities
• Incorporate the cities of Jurupa Valley and Eastvale projected land use designation to determine water demand information
• SCADA automation and energy efficiency
• Review and updating the District’s water fees and rates to ensure adequate funding for the proposed improvements and planned increases in water supply rates and charges. The future plan must include current and projected water quality data trends to help the District plan for future water treatment needs. Future planning and evaluation must also include future statewide programs such as the Dry Year Yield (DYY), SARCUP Program, and storage framework
• Water Quality Master Plan - WEBB performed a comprehensive water quality assessment of the anticipated TDS levels within the distribution system under various well TDS level assumptions for current year and into the future. This analysis was done using InfoWater’s water quality functions and future estimates of well TDS levels based on basin modeling. Treatment, blending and alternate supplies are being planned and prioritized based on this analysis.

5 WEBB is prepared the Water Master Plan (WMP) for the City of Imperial (City).
The City’s most current WMP was prepared in 2006. The 2006 WMP is not representative of current conditions because it was based upon population projections, land use, and development plans that were very aggressive compared to the reality experienced after the 2008 housing crisis. Since then, many development projects have been delayed and/or canceled.
In addition, many developments have revised their densities to adjust for changing market conditions. This WMP will be a valuable tool to assist with budgeting for future maintenance, replacement, and improvement projects for the City’s water facilities. The WMP will not only aid in financial planning but will help prioritize facility improvements to meet existing and projected demands. WEBB’s scope of work includes the following tasks:
Key components of the development of this WMP update include, but are not limited to:
• Inventory of Existing Facilities
• Service Area Evaluation
• Design Criteria
• Model Development
• Hydraulic Analysis
• Alternative Assessment
• Capital Improvement Plan
• Routine Maintenance Plan
• Master Plan Report

6 The WEBB Team has recently completed the Water Master Plan for the District. The update is a comprehensive update of the water master plan, along with updating the sewer master plan and preparing the urban water master plan, all on consistent data and land use assumptions. The plan is being developed for a fee nexus to the development impact fee and conditioning new development. The District’s service area is approximately 5,400 acres in the northeast corner of the City of Jurupa Valley. The District services approximately 37,000 people and is governed by an elected Board of Directors. The District has approximately 67 miles of gravity main ranging in size from 6-inches to 30-inches in diameter, five lift stations, and conveys its sewage to a regional treatment plant.

WEBB has completed the Agency’s 2005 and 2010 WMPs and the 1995 and 1990 UWMPs. WEBB has also completed the Urban Water Shortage Contingency Plan in 1992. The 2018 WMP included the following tasks:
Inventory of existing facilities, service area evaluation, design criteria, model development, hydraulic analysis, alternative assessment, capital improvement plan, routine maintenance plan, and master plan report. The Agency’s facilities includes a Water Treatment Plant (WTP), turnouts, pressure stations, water storage reservoirs, booster stations, transmission pipelines, and distribution pipelines. Site visits were included in this work to conduct a visual inspection for obvious signs of deficiencies or deterioration. WEBB has been working with the Agency to develop a GIS database of water pipes, valves, and appurtenances.
This data was imported into InfoWater® modeling software by Innovyze® and a GIS model was built. The Agency’s Operations Staff has been collecting GIS data with handheld data collectors for meters, fire hydrants, valves, and other facilities. WEBB based pipeline elevations on the GIS point data collected and interpolate elevation for areas in between. Lastly, WEBB prepared a Routine Maintenance Plan which included recommendations for storage facilities, booster stations/pumping units, transmission pipelines, distribution pipelines, SCADA system, disinfection and treatment facilities.

12 Section 3. Project Understanding and Approach
Project Understanding
The City has requested a proposal to develop an accurate hydraulic model for its existing water transmission and distribution system (to include 12-inch diameter and larger pipelines) to support the preparation of water master plans.
This plan will provide a road map for development and the nexus to determine connection fees for the City’s water system.
The City has an existing water supply and distribution system. According to the 2008 Water Master Plan, the City had almost 65 miles of water mains, 14 active wells, three pressure zones, over 16 MG of storage, four booster stations, and several pressure reducing zone interconnections. Local wells are the primary water supply source for the City.
Many of the wells are treated and additional treatment in the future will likely be warranted as new regulations and requirements have been or are being developed by state and federal regulators. The 2008 Water Master Plan proposed significant improvements to accommodate future growth within the City. It is anticipated that additional facilities have been constructed since this master plan was prepared and need to be added to the model.
WEBB reviewed the City’s 2020 UMWP and notes the City had 4,647 ac-ft of water used in 2020, and anticipates demands of 5,766 ac-ft by 2045.
The first step in any master planning effort is to determine the water demands projections for ultimate build out of the City based on the current land plan and any changes envisioned for that land use. Recent state legislation allows residential property owners to build accessory dwelling units (ADU’s) which may impact the anticipated wastewater generation from residential areas by a factor of 20% over previous projections. Another state law is targeting reductions in per capita water use. These are just some of the factors that impact projections for future water demands. Water planning needs to recognize these factors and develop water demand rates that address these issues, but also doesn’t overburden the master plan with significant underutilized capacity or stranded assets. According to the RFP, the City will provide the water demands through buildout of the City’s service through 2040. Our team will thoughtfully review the supplied data and coordinate with the City on the adequacy of the data from a total demand perspective as well as where the demand is or will be located.
Another useful feature of a well thought-out master plan is that it gives City Staff a road map to easily identify when a proposed development will both stress the existing water system which requires construction of master planned facilities, or stresses the proposed master planned water system with higher unanticipated water demands such that additional facilities must be constructed to support a particular development prior to full occupancy. It will be critical to coordinate with City Staff to address these issues and strike the right balance for this planning effort. Our typical approach includes reviewing and documenting the GIS land use data used to determine water demands for various conditions, calibrating existing land uses against known demands, and compare these water demand rates and totals against other agencies.
We will then hold a workshop with City Staff to review our findings and recommendations such that final adjustments to the estimates can be agreed upon and then programmed into the model. WEBB will take the lead on this review effort, leveraging our long-time experience with GIS mapping, land use analysis, and water demand determination.
Once the water demand projections are determined, both water modeling can proceed. WEBB and AQUA will team up on this effort and work seamlessly together as one consulting group. Kris Danielson, PE, in WEBB’s Riverside office, will be the project manager on this project, providing local access and knowledge with easy access for the City.
Our team has worked together on several master plans and hydraulic modeling efforts in the recent past. We have completed hydraulic water models for the Jurupa Community Services District, Rubidoux Community Services District, and Crestline Lake Arrowhead Water Agency. We are currently working on a sewer master plan for the City of Fontana where Kris is the project manager and AQUA is providing the modeling work. WEBB is an expert in most aspects of 510
13 municipal water system, well design and equipping, water transmission and distribution pipelines, water pump stations, storage tanks, and PRV stations. WEBB and AQUA are currently working together on several pipeline design projects in Southern California for both transmission and distribution mains. Prior to those projects, WEBB and AQUA have worked together on several wastewater plant expansions in both Southern and Northern California. The WEBB/AQUA Team provides significant value to water and sewer agencies starting with common sense planning, intimate process knowledge, and a very competitive design approach for WWTP’s.
WEBB has been intimately involved with water and sewer system planning, design, construction, and operation as District engineers for several water agencies in Southern California over the last 50 years or more. See our company profiles and resumes for additional detailed information and references.
As noted above, for the water master planning, the first step is to develop a hydraulic model for the existing water distribution system including wells, other water supplies such as treatment plants or interagency connections, pressure zones, transmission pipelines, pump stations, and PRV stations that all connect to the small distribution lines. The ultimate water distribution systems will be laid out to support the build out condition and any intermediate planning horizons needed, such as 2040. It is critical the existing system is modeled accurately to determine any existing flow bottlenecks. WEBB understands the City may lack many of the record drawings typically relied upon for accurate models.
Availability of as-built plans with accurate manhole invert data for main lines is typically required for the development of an accurate model. However, elevation data obtained from publicly available sources can be used to fill in the gaps, especially for water systems. Our proposal assumes, per the RFP, that 100 hours of time will be allocated to reviewing all documents, meetings, discussions, and updating the City’s GIS database for water model. WEBB Staff will use GIS data and aerial photography to assist in the model development and inputting all of the main line water facilities, as well has field investigations, and discussions with City Staff and PERC Water Staff. We anticipate the proposed water model will be a skeletonized system for 12-inch diameter and larger main lines suitable for master planning purposes. Smaller distribution system pipelines, 8-inch and under, will be input as time allows or in critical areas as needed.
For demand calibration of the water system, the WEBB/AQUA Team will review well pumping logs to determine water supply needs of the existing system by season. Additional pressure logging and fire flow testing will be needed to further calibrate the water system.
For the water system, a schematic exhibit will be developed similar to the schematic prepared by WEBB for other systems; see example prepared for JCSD’s water system.
511
14 For the next step, WEBB will develop comprehensive exhibits for the water master plan which will be easily used in the future. WEBB has worked closely with several water and sewer agencies on water and sewer master plans as well as major capital improvement programs which include facility design and construction support. WEBB understands the entire process and has experience with municipal water and sewer system from land use development, master planning, design, construction support, and start up and can suggest exhibit formats that can be easily used in the future by City Staff. Examples of WEBB’s water master plans can be found in the below link for your review:
JCSD Water Master Plan
Finally, WEBB will provide additional water hydraulic modeling support to the City on an as-needed basis. WEBB has similar relationships with other agencies and has plenty of staff to support both minor fire flow test modeling and complex analyses as required within a relatively short time-frame.
Management Philosophy
WEBB understands the absolute need for strong project management. We recognize the critical issues associated with scope, schedule, budget management, and communication. Communication and coordination between WEBB and the City are paramount to each project. To guarantee continuous and effective communication, Kris Danielson, PE, Project Manager, will be the primary point-of-contact for the City, and Bruce Davis, PE, Principal-in-Charge, will be monitoring the process as a whole. Kris will make it a priority to attend all meetings with the City and project proponents during the project. This will ensure a constant and effective communication resulting in strong budget, scope, and schedule control.
Management Responsibility And Procedures
Bruce will be the lead on all contractual matters focusing on resolving any critical contract issues as soon as they are identified. Bruce will have the authority to commit firm resources and will support the project manager in managing the overall scope, schedule, and budget. Bruce’s experience on large multi-disciplinary projects, with multiple public agencies, allows him to look forward to identify and prevent potential delay causing issues and understands the City’s desired approach in handling them with all stakeholders. Further, Bruce will be the primary presenter and interface with City Council workshops and presentations if they are needed. Kris will be the primary point of contact responsible for the day-to-day project and technical management which includes:
• Facilitating frequent and consistent communications with the City • Implementing the overall delivery plan
• Managing the overall scope, schedule, and budget
• Implementing the QA/QC Program
Kris will be responsible for facilitating decisions by the City, coordination, management, communicating to the project team and City project manager, and preparing and reviewing deliverables. Kris will assist in presenting the technical work at meetings and documenting action items and decisions.
The QA/QC Team and Project Management Plan (PMP) will facilitate successful project execution. Management tools, procedures, and a delivery plan are all contained in a comprehensive PMP prepared at the beginning of the project and is updated throughout the project. Having a comprehensive and detailed PMP is essential for preparing large planning documents with an integrated team consisting of agencies, multiple stakeholders, multiple disciplines, and many deliverables. City input into the plan will be essential to make certain it is an effective tool and adequately used.
An outline of the plan and some initial comments and items to be included, in addition to our detailed Communication Plan, are as follows:
512
15 Kick-off Meeting
After project award and notice-to-proceed, our project manager will conduct a kick-off meeting with all members of the project team and points-of-contact from each of the participating City departments. The kick-off meeting is structured to establish communication protocols for the project, as well as to identify critical success factors and processes, activities, and tasks that must be carried out to achieve project goals. The workshop is an important step to ensure all parties are focused on the same project goals and help clarify the critical path issues, key outside stakeholders, milestones, and third party approvals.
Communication Plan and Management
Communication between all team members and the City is critical to its success. We are committed to providing consistent communication by having required members of the project team available for all City meetings. WEBB has multiple conferencing programs that will be utilized to provide immediate conferencing and reduce driving time. These programs include, but are not limited to conference calls via phone, and video conferencing via TEAMs, Skype, and GoToMeeting. However our primary preference is to conduct in person meetings with the City as we find them more engaging and effective for all involved. In addition, weekly check-ins between the City and WEBB’s project manager are important to communicate project status, clarify expectations, and understanding next scheduled actions and who will complete.
Scope Management
A detailed scope of services is included in our proposal and will be utilized for the project duration with detailed tasks.
During the execution of the project, the scope will be utilized as a baseline by our project manager, who will manage the scope and work product. If potential changes are identified as the project develops, our project manager will work with the City project manager to clarify and approve any additional tasks necessary to complete the project.
Schedule Management
A preliminary schedule has been prepared and provided in the scope of services section and will be discussed at the kick-off meeting. At that time, the project schedule and milestones will be evaluated and modifications will be made to set the final baseline schedule. The baseline schedule will be monitored and tracked by our project manager to maintain the project milestones and manage critical path items. A tracking schedule can be provided with monthly updates and schedule variances identified. Actions required to correct schedule deviations will be developed and implemented by the project manager. The project schedule is an effective management tool when developed and maintained to guide the planning process through the tasks required to successfully complete a project. WEBB uses Microsoft Project software to schedule and track project tasks.
Cost/Budget Management Plan
The proposed project budget is prepared based on tasks required to successfully complete the project. Our project manager will track the final budget compared to the actual earned value, task completion, and cost-to-date, and will identify any project cost variance monthly. Corrective actions will be taken to maintain the project budget. If changes to the scope and budget are deemed necessary, our project manager will work with agencies to justify the need and clearly define the impacts.

514
17 TASK 2. RESOURCE DOCUMENTS AND DATA REVIEW
WEBB shall collect and review the City’s relevant planning documents, GIS data, and other City data relating to potable water system. WEBB will apply its knowledge of typical water systems to determine where information is lacking and where additional investigations are warranted. Below is a summary of the data collection anticipated.
Data Collection and Review
Data to be collected from the City or other sources and reviewed by WEBB will include:
1. Water Demands prepared by the City.
2. The City’s 2020 UWMP.
3. GIS mapping information.
4. Hydraulic model information and data, if available.
5. Most recent aerial imagery obtained from on-line sources.
6. Recent system operation files.
7. Recent pump efficiency test information for pump stations, if available.
8. Pump curves for pump stations, if available.
9. SCADA data for all facilities.
10. Current Capital Improvement Program information.
Other data that may be useful in review of the demand projections:
1. Recent water billing data (residential, commercial, and industrial customers) in database or shapefile format.
2. Updated land use and population projections in GIS formats.
TASK 3. UPDATE EXISTING BACKBONE WATER GIS MAP
WEBB shall collect and review the City’s relevant planning documents, GIS data, and other City data relating to the potable water system. WEBB will apply its knowledge of typical water system to determine where information is lacking and where additional investigations are warranted. Based on the RFP, we have budgeted 100 hours for this effort which includes field investigations, reviewing documents, meetings and discussions with Operations Staff and City consultants, and updating the City’s GIS database. WEBB will structure the GIS data to be compatible with INFOWATER® software based on our recent experience converting existing models and GIS databases to modeling software for other agencies.
After GIS databases are updated, WEBB will prepare a comprehensive water hydraulic model in INFOWATER®, fully compatible with the GIS data. (See Task 5 for additional work updating and calibrating these models.) WEBB will also develop and provide a training program for the new models in the specified modeling software. This task will be focused on the specific models developed for the City and how to run, modify, and maintain those models for the future. Two full day training sessions will be held. (See Task 5 for additional training items and license costs.) WEBB highly recommends the City personnel to be trained are familiar with the software and attend Innovyze’s standard beginning training program (typically on-line) prior to our system focused training sessions.
TASK 4. REVIEW WATER DEMAND ESTIMATES AND FORECAST
Typically, WEBB uses available GIS land use data and determines land uses, water use factors based on our experience with other water systems, and any City planning standards and experience for the various land uses, and then estimates ultimate water demands. WEBB will review the City’s water demand projections under the same approach for the assumptions to use for 2040 (17 years) and assumed growth estimates through 2040 and ultimate build-out.
WEBB will prepare a technical memorandum summarizing our review and hold a workshop with the City to discuss average and maximum day demands, peaking factors and peak hour, the water demand projections along with supporting tables, and GIS exhibits.
Deliverable: Technical Memorandum in PDF format.
515
18 TASK 5. UPDATE AND CALIBRATE WATER SYSTEM HYDRAULIC MODEL WEBB proposes to use INFOWATER® Modeling software which will be compatible with GIS atlas mapping and easy conversion from other formats such as H2OMap. WEBB has used this software for multiple water master plan updates which is used by several other local agencies in Southern California.
A- Create Model Pipeline Network and Facilities from GIS data WEBB will use GIS data to develop the water model using InfoWater® Modeling software. The WEBB Team maintains current licenses for this software. In addition, all supplemental information, atlas maps, record drawings, etc. to support the task is anticipated to be provided by the City. WEBB will deliver a completed and fully functional model of the water system for modeling purposes. The water model will include all pipelines available in GIS and model all key pipelines, 12-inch diameter and larger, and exclude any limited local small diameter water pipelines deemed not critical for the modeling task. If the data is available for these smaller diameter water pipelines, they will be included in the model. Water attributes such as pipe length, diameter, age, roughness estimates, node elevations, pressure zones, pump station data, PRV valves, tank data and control sets will all be included in the model. Materials of construction and age will be included if already available in the data bases. We have assumed all the information will be correctly provided and have assumed minimal effort to fix any deficiencies or supplement the City supplied information. It is important all the information requested for attributes in the model are complete and correctly formatted. As noted above, WEBB will extract this data from as built plans and field investigations based on the Task 3 effort.
Deliverable: Operational Model.
B- Calibrate Model
For the water system, WEBB will utilize fire flow data and existing pump operational data, and meter billing data to calibrate the modeling following AWWA M32 guidelines. Additional fire flow data may be needed from the City to complete the work. While M32 does not give specific procedures on calibration, it does recommend the 5 psi differential from modeled and actual data is satisfactory. WEBB proposes both fire flow testing and data loggers in each zone are used to monitor pressures in the system and compared against SCADA data from the tank levels, well operations, and pump station operations. It is anticipated that the City provide the fire flow testing and data loggers; costs are excluded from this proposal.
Deliverable: Model accuracy in tabular and graphical form in PDF format.
TASK 6. WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM ANALYSIS
WEBB will develop a series of modeling runs to determine the current water system’s capabilities, the future system’s requirements, and support determination of the required facilities, such as pipelines, pump stations, storage, and water supply (wells) for the existing condition as well as build out and at the 2040 planning horizon. We have included developing and running eight scenarios in our budget. Those will likely include maximum day, maximum day plus fire flow, peak hour, tank refill, and other scenarios as deemed appropriate by City Staff. An Extended Period Simulation (EPS) Analysis can be set up and performed based on control sets for pump stations and wells.
TASK 7. WATER SYSTEM GRAPHICS
To support the City’s separate master planning efforts, WEBB will prepare mapping and graphics using either the GIS database, or models depicting water systems, pressure zones, proposed improvements, land uses, or other exhibits as identified by the City. Examples of anticipated graphics to be prepared can be found in links to previous water master plans prepared by WEBB for other clients. Per the RFP, we have assumed a total of five water exhibits.
TASK 8. ON-GOING MODELING SUPPORT
WEBB will provide a total of 40 hours to support future modeling efforts as needed by City Staff, which may include, but is not limited to model upgrades and maintenance, software upgrades, and maintenance or specific modeling runs to determine the impact of proposed projects or developments on the systems. 516

to the project is over 4,000 acres and the creek is designated on the Flood Insurance Rate Map by FEMA. The City’s goal was to reduce the peak flow utilizing a series of detention basins that in turn will reduce peak flow rates downstream and reduce the burden on those downstream facilities. This reduction in peak flow rates was accomplished through the removal of sediment/debris load and the attenuation of peak flooding through the use of the proposed basins. In addition to providing flood control benefits, this project also provided certain environmental and water quality benefits. To do this, the flood control facilities were developed in such a manner so the construction preserves riparian vegetation, where possible, and implements other measures for environmental and water quality impacts. In order to accomplish this, WEBB reviewed the conceptual design and provided a more precise analysis of the level of flood control protection the basins will provide.
WEBB also prepared detailed hydrologic, hydraulic, and sediment transport models to determine the peak runoff rates, flood volume, and debris load.
North Indio Regional Flood Control Channel Project, Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) - Joseph is the Technical Lead for the North Indio Regional Flood Control Channel Project which is a key component of the CVWD flood protection mission in the Coachella Valley. The project will complete the link between existing flood control facilities in the north Indio area, providing increased flood protection for the region. The project consists of over three miles of concrete lined trapezoidal and rectangular channels, including numerous culvert crossings of existing and future streets. To date, WEBB has prepared the hydraulic analysis, preliminary design, and environmental documentation for the project. WEBB is currently in the process of preparing the final design plans, specifications, and estimates. WEBB is also responsible for preparing the CLOMR and providing public outreach and right-of-way acquisition services.
University Wash Channel, Riverside County Flood Control & Water Conservation District - Joseph was Technical Lead for the University Wash Storm Drain Project including the planning, analysis, and design of a large diameter master plan storm drain that connects existing upstream and downstream facilities together. This project was unique in that the 2,450-LF, 90-inch RCP required for this project had to be designed to maneuver its way through a developed industrial corridor of the City. Key to this project was the coordination with local businesses to ensure construction of the storm drain minimized impacts to business operations.
San Jacinto River Stage 3 Master Drainage Plan, Riverside County Flood Control & Water Conservation District (District) - Joseph served as Project Manager for the WEBB Team responsible for reviewing the current hydrological model, analyzing potential alternative models, and working with the District to decide the best option based for the current Master Drainage Plan. This project consisted of preparation of conceptual drawings for the Master Plan addressing all key elements such as floodplain management, flood control features, environmental preservation, development opportunities, effects on regional infrastructure, right-of-way requirements, and order of magnitude cost. WEBB worked directly with the District to prepare the planning study, coordinated with all stakeholders, and presented all findings to the Advisory Board with recommendations for the next steps (i.e., MSHCP compliance, CEQA strategy, land development constraints, and floodplain management). WEBB is currently working on the final MDP and EIR for the District.
Bedford Wash Channel, Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District - Joseph is the Project Manager for the Bedford Wash Channel upstream on the McMillan Property. Services provided included finalizing the 30% design, preparation of all necessary studies, and designs for the final construction drawings, preparation and processing of the Cooperative Agreement and Agency approvals as well as providing on-going coordination with the overall project team during the design of the overall project and with the environmental consultant to assist with obtaining any regulatory permits associated with the channel construction. WEBB provided three iterations of channel design from the point the project was secured, when it was a completely lined concrete channel. Through WEBB’s recommendation, the project stakeholders strategically selected to move toward transitioning the channel to a soft bottom.

Water Master Plan, Rubidoux Community Services District (District) - Brad assisted in the preparation of a comprehensive update of the District’s Water Master Plan which included the updating of the sewer master plan and preparing the urban water master plan, all on consistent data and land use assumptions. The District’s service area is approximately 5,400 acres and services approximately 37,000 people.
Lakeview/Nuevo Area Wide Master Plan, Eastern Municipal Water District (District) - The Master Plan area encompasses 16.7 square miles currently within the District’s existing 1698, 1720, and 1831 water pressure zones. The areas of these pressure zones will be expanded and/or modified to place the entire project area within three water pressure zones; 1720, 1831, and 1850. The proposed water, sewer, and recycled water facilities conceive approximately 179,200-FT (33.9 miles) of water transmission pipelines, approximately 111,900-FT (21.2 miles) of sewer collection and interceptor pipelines, and 99,100-FT (18.8 miles) of recycled water pipelines.

Master Plan Updates, Western Municipal Water District (District) - Brad served as Project Manager for the District’s project. This project for included updates to the North and South AFC Master Plan, the Sewer Master Plan, MARB Water Master Plan, the Recycled Water Master Plan, the Murrieta Water Master Plan, and development of the Murrieta Sewer Master Plan. All plans were brought current by verifying the current land use, EDU’s and demands, updating facilities to be constructed and associated cost estimates, and preparing a CEQA document at the programmatic level allowing the District to consider adoption of the master plan by the Board of Directors. The master plans and associated CEQA document was presented to the Board for consideration.
Water Supply Evaluation, Western Municipal Water District (District) - Brad served as Project Manager for the District’s project. In 2016, WEBB provided engineering services to evaluate available water export amounts from Riverside Highland Water Company’s (RHWC) rights that might be transferable to the District in the future. The study results are used as the basis of a lease agreement between the two agencies. The study includes (1) Verify RHWC’s annual water rights within the San Bernardino Basin Area and allowable delivery limits outside of San Bernardino County (2) Determine RHWC’s existing water demands, (3) Determine RHWC’s future demands, in five year increments, out to ultimate build-out, and (4) Identify surplus water rights available for transfer from RHWC to the District at five year increments through build-out.
South Regional Lift Station Analysis, Western Riverside County Regional Wastewater Authority - Brad served as the Project Manager for this project. WEBB obtained as-built plans, pump information, current operating conditions, and ultimate flow projections from each agency. Based on the hydraulic analysis of the systems, WEBB determined the existing system maximum capacity and compared against ultimate daily and instantaneous flow projections. Since there is essentially no storage capacity in the South Regional Lift Station and conveyance system, all wet weather and peak flows must be pumped to the treatment plant to avoid sewer spills or discharges to the IEBL emergency connection. Flow projections included both dry weather and wet weather maximum flows based on estimates of peaking factors for both situations. Improvements were identified to meet the ultimate flow projects.
Baxter Road and Clearview Street Lift Stations, Eastern Municipal Water District - Brad served as Senior Engineer for this project. Two lift stations were partially constructed during the mid-2000’s but were never completed when the housing market collapsed. With the recovery of the housing market and a revised development proposal, WEBB analyzed the proposed development plan based on revised tributary areas, determined the ultimate station capacity, inspected the existing facilities for current condition and salvageable facilities, re-designed and specified all required improvements and installation for both the renovated Baxter Road Lift Station, Clearview Street Lift Station, and the abandonment of the Menifee Court Lift Station. 525

ATTACHMENT A
PREVAILING WAGE REQUIREMENTS
A. All or a portion of the Scope of Work in the Contract requires the payment of prevailing wages and compliance with the following requirements:
1. Determination of Prevailing Rates:
Pursuant to Labor Code sections 1770, et seq., the County has obtained from the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) pursuant to the California Labor Code, the general prevailing rates of per diem wages and the prevailing rates for holiday and overtime work in the locality in which the Scope of Work is to be performed. Copies of said rates are on file with the County, will be made available for inspection during regular business hours, may be included elsewhere in the specifications for the Scope of Work, and are also available online at www.dir.ca.gov. The wage rate for any classification not listed, but which may be required to execute the Scope of Work, shall be commensurate and in accord with specified rates for similar or comparable classifications for those performing similar or comparable duties. In accordance with Labor Code section 1773.2, the Contractor shall post, at appropriate and conspicuous locations on the job site, a schedule showing all applicable prevailing wage rates and shall comply with the requirements of Labor Code sections 1773, et seq.
2. Payment of Prevailing Rates
Each worker of the Contractor, or any subcontractor, engaged in the Scope of Work, shall be paid not less than the general prevailing wage rate, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the Contractor or any subcontractor, and such worker.
3. Prevailing Rate Penalty
The Contractor shall, as a penalty, forfeit two hundred dollars ($200.00) to the County for each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing rates as determined by the Director of the DIR for such work or craft in which such worker is employed by the Contractor or by any subcontractor in connection with the Scope of Work. Pursuant to California Labor Code section 1775, the difference between such prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate, shall be paid to each worker by the Contractor.
4. Ineligible Contractors:
Pursuant to the provisions of Labor Code section 1777.1, the Labor Commissioner publishes and distributes a list of contractors ineligible to perform work as a contractor or subcontractor on a public works project. This list of debarred contractors is available from the DIR website at http://www.dir.ca.gov/Public-Works/PublicWorks.html.
Any contract entered into between a contractor and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract, and any public money that may have been paid to a debarred subcontractor by a contractor on the project shall be returned to the County. The Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers as a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Scope of Work.

Copies provided to the public, by the County or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated in such a manner as to prevent disclosure of an individual's name, address and social security number. The name and address of the Contractor or any subcontractor, performing a part of the Scope of Work shall not be marked or obliterated. The Contractor shall inform the County of the location of payroll records, including the street address, city and county and shall, within five (5) working days, provide a notice of a change of location and address. b.

Upon the request of the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, such penalty shall be withheld from any portion of the payments then due or to become due to the Contractor.
6. Limits on Hours of Work:
Pursuant to California Labor Code section 1810, eight (8) hours of labor shall constitute a legal day's work.

The annual renewal fee shall be in a uniform amount set by the Director of Industrial Relations, and the initial registration and renewal fees may be adjusted no more than annually by the director to support the costs specified in Section 1771.3.
(B) Beginning June 1, 2019, a contractor may register or renew according to this subdivision in annual increments up to three years from the date of registration. Contractors who wish to do so will be required to prepay the applicable nonrefundable application or renewal fees to qualify for the number of years for which they wish to preregister.
(2) Provide evidence, disclosures, or releases as are necessary to establish all of the following:
(A) Workers' compensation coverage that meets the requirements of Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) and includes sufficient coverage for any worker whom the contractor employs to perform work that is subject to prevailing wage requirements other than a contractor who is separately registered under this section.

(C) The contractor does not have any delinquent liability to an employee or the state for any assessment of back wages or related damages, interest, fines, or penalties pursuant to any final judgment, order, or determination by a court or any federal, state, or local administrative agency, including a confirmed arbitration award. However, for purposes of this paragraph, the contractor shall not be disqualified for any judgment, order, or determination that is under appeal, provided that the contractor has secured the payment of any amount eventually found due through a bond or other appropriate means. (D) The contractor is not currently debarred under Section 1777.1 or under any other federal or state law providing for the debarment of contractors from public works. (E) The contractor has not bid on a public works contract, been listed in a bid proposal, or engaged in the performance of a contract for public works without being lawfully registered in accordance with this section, within the preceding 12 months or since the effective date of the requirements set forth in subdivision (e), whichever is earlier. If a contractor is found to be in violation of the requirements of this paragraph, the period of disqualification shall be waived if both of the following are true:

(c) A contractor who fails to pay the renewal fee required under paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) on or before the expiration of any prior period of registration shall be prohibited from bidding on or engaging in the performance of any contract for public work until once again registered pursuant to this section. If the failure to pay the renewal fee was inadvertent, the contractor may renew its registration retroactively by paying an additional nonrefundable penalty renewal fee equal to the amount of the renewal fee within 90 days of the due date of the renewal fee.
(d) If, after a body awarding a contract accepts the contractor's bid or awards the contract, the work covered by the bid or contract is determined to be a public work to which Section 1771 applies, either as the result of a determination by the director pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a court decision, the requirements of this section shall not apply, subject to the following requirements:
(1) The body that awarded the contract failed, in the bid specification or in the contract documents, to identify as a public work that portion of the work that the determination or decision subsequently classifies as a public work.
(2) Within 20 days following service of notice on the awarding body of a determination by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a decision by a court that the contract was for public work as defined in this chapter, the contractor and any subcontractors are registered under this section or are replaced by a contractor or subcontractors who are registered under this section. 608
Revised 1/10/23 Page 22 of 26
(3) The requirements of this section shall apply prospectively only to any subsequent bid, bid proposal, contract, or work performed after the awarding body is served with notice of the determination or decision referred to in paragraph (2).
(e) The requirements of this section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, to any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, executed on or after April 1, 2015, and to any work performed under a contract for public work on or after January 1, 2018, regardless of when the contract for public work was executed.

c. Labor Code section 1771.1 states the following:
“(a) A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. It is not a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section 10164 or 20103.5 of the Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.
(b) Notice of the requirement described in subdivision (a) shall be included in all bid invitations and public works contracts, and a bid shall not be accepted nor any contract or subcontract entered into without proof of the contractor or subcontractor's current registration to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. (c) An inadvertent error in listing a subcontractor who is not registered pursuant to Section 1725.5 in a bid proposal shall not be grounds for filing a bid protest or grounds for considering the bid nonresponsive, provided that any of the following apply:
(1) The subcontractor is registered prior to the bid opening. (2) Within 24 hours after the bid opening, the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (3) The subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.
(d) Failure by a subcontractor to be registered to perform public work as required by subdivision (a) shall be grounds under Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code for the contractor, with the consent of the awarding authority, to substitute a subcontractor who is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 in place of the unregistered subcontractor. (e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.
(f) A contract entered into with any contractor or subcontractor in violation of subdivision (a) shall be subject to cancellation, provided that a contract for public work shall not be unlawful, void, or voidable solely due to the failure of the awarding body, contractor, or any subcontractor to comply with the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section.
(g) If the Labor Commissioner or his or her designee determines that a contractor or subcontractor engaged in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in accordance with this section, the contractor or subcontractor shall forfeit, as a civil penalty to the state, one hundred dollars ($100) for each day of work performed in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of eight thousand dollars ($8,000) in addition to any penalty registration fee assessed pursuant to clause (ii) of subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (h)(1) In addition to, or in lieu of, any other penalty or sanction authorized pursuant to this chapter, a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor who is found to have entered into a subcontract with an unregistered lower tier subcontractor to perform any public work in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section shall be subject to forfeiture, as a civil penalty to the state, of one hundred dollars ($100) for each day the unregistered lower tier subcontractor performs work in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (2) The Labor Commissioner shall use the same standards specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1775 when determining the severity of the violation and what penalty to assess, and may waive the penalty for a first time violation that was unintentional and did not hinder the Labor Commissioner’s ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the requirements of this chapter. (3) A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor shall not be liable for penalties assessed pursuant to paragraph (1) if the lower tier subcontractor’s performance is in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 due to the revocation of a previously approved registration. 609
Revised 1/10/23 Page 23 of 26
(4) A subcontractor shall not be liable for any penalties assessed against a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor pursuant to paragraph (1). A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor may not require a lower tiered subcontractor to indemnity or otherwise be liable for any penalties pursuant to paragraph (1).
(i) The Labor Commissioner or his or her designee shall issue a civil wage and penalty assessment, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1741, upon determination of penalties pursuant to subdivision (g) and subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (h). Review of a civil wage and penalty assessment issued under this subdivision may be requested in accordance with the provisions of Section 1742. The regulations of the Director of Industrial Relations, which govern proceedings for review of civil wage and penalty assessments and the withholding of contract payments under Article 1 (commencing with Section 1720) and Article 2 (commencing with Section 1770), shall apply. (j)(1) Where a contractor or subcontractor engages in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section, the Labor Commissioner shall issue and serve a stop order prohibiting the use of the unregistered contractor or the unregistered subcontractor on all public works until the unregistered contractor or unregistered subcontractor is registered. The stop order shall not apply to work by registered contractors or subcontractors on the public work.
(2) A stop order may be personally served upon the contractor or subcontractor by either of the following methods:
(A) Manual delivery of the order to the contractor or subcontractor personally. (B) Leaving signed copies of the order with the person who is apparently in charge at the site of the public work and by thereafter mailing copies of the order by first class mail, postage prepaid to the contractor or subcontractor at one of the following:
(i) The address of the contractor or subcontractor on file with either the Secretary of State or the Contractors’ State License Board.
(ii) If the contractor or subcontractor has no address on file with the Secretary of State or the Contractors’ State License Board, the address of the site of the public work. (3) The stop order shall be effective immediately upon service and shall be subject to appeal by the party contracting with the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, by the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, or both. The appeal, hearing, and any further review of the hearing decision shall be governed by the procedures, time limits, and other requirements specified in subdivision (a) of Section 238.1.
(4) Any employee of an unregistered contractor or subcontractor who is affected by a work stoppage ordered by the commissioner pursuant to this subdivision shall be paid at his or her regular hourly prevailing wage rate by that employer for any hours the employee would have worked but for the work stoppage, not to exceed 10 days.
(k) Failure of a contractor or subcontractor, owner, director, officer, or managing agent of the contractor or subcontractor to observe a stop order issued and served upon him or her pursuant to subdivision (j) is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in county jail not exceeding 60 days or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or both.
(l) This section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, and any contract for public work entered into on or after April 1, 2015. This section shall also apply to the performance of any public work, as defined in this chapter, on or after January 1, 2018, regardless of when the contract for public work was entered.

B. STATE PUBLIC WORKS APPRENTICESHIP REQUIREMENTS
1. State Public Works Apprenticeship Requirements:
a. The Contractor is responsible for compliance with Labor Code section 1777.5 and the California Code of Regulations, title 8, sections 230 – 230.2 for all apprenticeable occupations (denoted with “#” symbol next to craft name in DIR Prevailing Wage Determination), whether employed by the Contractor, subcontractor, vendor or consultant. Included in these requirements is (1) the Contractor’s requirement to provide notification (i.e. DAS-140) to the appropriate apprenticeship committees; (2) pay training fund contributions for each apprenticeable hour employed on the Contract; and (3) utilize apprentices in a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice hour for each five journeyman hours by completion of Contract work (unless an exception is granted in accordance with Labor Code section 1777.5) or request for the dispatch of apprentices.
b. Any apprentices employed to perform any of the Scope of Work shall be paid the standard wage to apprentices under the regulations of the craft or trade for which such apprentice is employed, and such individual shall be employed only for the work of the craft or trade to which such individual is registered.
Only apprentices, as defined in California Labor Code section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards and written apprenticeship agreements under California Labor Code sections 3070 et seq. are eligible to be employed for the Scope of Work. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which such apprentice is training.
2. Compliance with California Labor Code section 1777.5 requires all public works contractors to:
a. Submit Contract Award Information (DAS-140):
i. Although there are a few exemptions (identified below), all Contractors, regardless of union affiliation, must submit contract award information when performing on a California public works project.
ii. The DAS-140 is a notification “announcement” of the Contractor’s participation on a public works project—it is not a request for the dispatch of an apprentice. iii. Contractors shall submit the contract award information (you may use form DAS 140) within 10 days of the execution of the prime contract or subcontract, but in no event later than the first day in which the Contractor has workers employed on the public work. iv. Contractors who are already approved to train apprentices (i.e. check “Box 1” on the DAS-140) shall only be required to submit the form to their approved program. v. Contractors who are NOT approved to train apprentices (i.e. those that check either “Box 2” or “Box 3” on the DAS-140) shall submit the DAS-140 TO EACH of the apprenticeship program sponsors in the area of your public works project. For a listing of apprenticeship programs see 611
Revised 1/10/23 Page 25 of 26
http://www.dir.ca.gov/Databases/das/pwaddrstart.asp.
b. Employ Registered Apprentices
i. Labor Code section 1777.5 requires that a contractor performing work in an “apprenticeable” craft must employ one (1) hour of apprentice work for every five (5) hours performed by a journeyman.
This ratio shall be met prior to the Contractor’s completion of work on the project. “Apprenticeable” crafts are denoted with a pound symbol “#” in front of the craft name on the prevailing wage determination.
ii. All Contractors who do not fall within an exemption category (see below) must request for dispatch of an apprentice from an apprenticeship program (for each apprenticeable craft or trade) by giving the program actual notice of at least 72 hours (business days only) before the date on which apprentices are required.
iii. Contractors may use the “DAS-142” form for making a request for the dispatch of an apprentice. iv. Contractors who are participating in an approved apprenticeship training program and who did not receive sufficient number of apprentices from their initial request must request dispatch of apprentices from ALL OTHER apprenticeship committees in the project area in order to fulfill this requirement.
v. Contractor should maintain and submit proof (when requested) of its DAS-142 submittal to the apprenticeship committees (e.g. fax transmittal confirmation). A Contractor has met its requirement to employ apprentices only after it has successfully made a dispatch request to all apprenticeship programs in the project area.
vi. Only “registered” apprentices may be paid the prevailing apprentice rates and must, at all times work under the supervision of a Journeyman (Cal. Code Regs., tit 8, § 230.1). c. Make Training Fund Contributions
i. Contractors performing in apprenticeable crafts on public works projects, must make training fund contributions in the amount established in the prevailing wage rate publication for journeymen and apprentices.
ii. Contractors may use the “CAC-2” form for submittal of their training fund contributions. iii. Contractors who do not submit their training fund contributions to an approved apprenticeship training program must submit their contributions to the California Apprenticeship Council (CAC), PO Box 420603, San Francisco, CA 94142-0603.
iv. Training fund contributions to the CAC are due and payable on the 15th day of the month for work performed during the preceding month.
v. The “training” contribution amount identified on the prevailing wage determination shall not be paid to the worker, unless the worker falls within one of the exemption categories listed below.
3. Exemptions to Apprenticeship Requirements:
a. The following are exempt from having to comply with California apprenticeship requirements. These types of contractors do not need to submit a DAS-140, DAS-142, make training fund contributions, or utilize apprentices:
i. When the Contractor holds a sole proprietor license (“Owner-Operator”) and no workers were employed by the Contractor. In other words, the contractor performed the entire work from start to finish and worked alone.
ii. Contractors performing in non-apprenticeable crafts. “Apprenticeable” crafts are denoted with a pound symbol “#” in front of the craft name on the prevailing wage determination. iii. When the Contractor has a direct contract with the Public Agency that is under $30,000. iv. When the project is 100% federally-funded and the funding of the project does not contain any city, county, and/or state monies (unless the project is administered by a state agency in which case the apprenticeship requirements apply).
v. When the project is a private project not covered by the definition of public works as found in Labor Code section 1720.
4. Exemption from Apprenticeship Rations:
a. The Joint Apprenticeship Committee shall have the discretion to grant a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the Contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this Section when it finds that any one of the following conditions are met:
i. Unemployment for the previous three-month period in such area exceeds an average of fifteen percent (15%); or
ii. The number of apprentices in training in such area exceeds a ratio of 1-to-5 in relation to journeymen; or
612
Revised 1/10/23 Page 26 of 26
iii. The Apprenticeable Craft or Trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth (1/30) of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis; or iv. If assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under the Contract Documents would create a condition which would jeopardize such apprentice's life or the life, safety or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or if the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of such a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman. b. When such exemptions from the 1-to-5 ratio between apprentices and journeymen are granted to an organization which represents contractors in a specific trade on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors will not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local Joint Apprenticeship Committees, provided they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
5. Contractor’s Compliance:
a. The responsibility of compliance with this Section for all Apprenticeable Trades or Crafts is solely and exclusively that of the Contractor. All decisions of the Joint Apprenticeship Committee(s) under this Section are subject to the provisions of California Labor Code section 3081 and penalties are pursuant to Labor Code section 1777.7 and the determination of the Labor Commissioner. 613
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

DATE: September 25, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jessie Flores, City Manager
BY: Julio Morales, Finance Consultant
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING PARTICIPATION IN THE CALIFORNIA ENTERPRISE DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (“CEDA”) BONDS ASSISTING NEW DEVELOPMENT (“BAND”) PROGRAM
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council hold a public hearing on participation in the California Enterprise Development Authority (“CEDA”) Bonds Assisting New Development (“BAND”) Program and thereafter adopt Resolution No. 24-85, authorizing the participation in the CEDA BAND Program to facilitate the formation of a Community Facilities District (“CFD”) and the issuance of tax-exempt CFD Bonds.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Adelanto (the “City”) would like to participate in the CEDA BAND Program. Participation in said program will enable property owners to finance public infrastructure and capital improvements and development impact fees imposed on new development.
Community facilities district bonds (“CFD Bonds” or “Mello Roos Bonds”) are secured by special taxes paid by property owners to pay for various public infrastructure, capital projects, and fees. CFDs have been widely used throughout California as a public-private financing tool to promote economic development since their inception in 1982.
CFDs can be used by local agencies to finance a variety of public improvements for development of residential, commercial & mixed-use projects including: planning & design of public improvements, lighting & landscaping, civic buildings, freeway interchange, drainage, traffic control, gas, electric, phones & cable, streets & sidewalks, schools & libraries, water & sewer, police & fire, parking, hazardous waste remediation, parks & recreation facilities and other public improvements.
CEDA is a joint powers authority, with 530 member agencies throughout California, including the City. The BAND Program was formed by CEDA in 2022 to allow owners of property in participating cities and counties to finance the public infrastructure, capital projects and development impact fees that are to be paid by property owners upon receiving development entitlements or building permits. These costs can be financed through the issuance of tax-exempt CFD Bonds by CEDA, as provided for in the proposed resolution.
One of the proposed resolution authorizes CEDA to accept applications from owners of property within the City’s boundaries to apply for tax-exempt or taxable financing of public capital improvements and facilities in lieu of development impact fees City as a condition of development. It also authorizes CEDA to form land614 secured and tax increment districts within the City’s boundaries, conduct proceedings to form such districts, levy and collect assessments and special taxes against the property of participating owners, and to manage the post-sale administration and disclosure responsibilities related to the issuance of these bonds.
The proposed CEDA BAND resolution authorizes the CEDA BAND Program to form CFDs and issue CFD Bonds (as well as other land-secured and tax increment bonds) on the City’s behalf and to manage the post-sale administration and disclosure responsibilities.
Discussion:
CEDA BAND will serve as a conduit issuer of the CFD Bonds. The bonds are repaid solely from a special tax levied on the property in the CFD. The City is not financially responsible for making any debt service payments nor to pay any fees related to the financing. The BAND Financing Team will manage all required continuing disclosure, administration, and compliance matters related to the bonds thereafter.
The initial project contemplated is for the Steelwave property located adjacent to the Southern California Logistics Airport. Steelwave anticipates issuing approximately $30 million in tax-exempt CFD Bonds to pay for public infrastructure required for the development of the project.
The CEDA BAND Resolution additionally approves the forms of a Funding and Acquisition Agreement and a Joint Community Facilities Agreement. Both of these documents are being approved as to form only, and have been provided now to avoid the need to return to the City Council in the future for approval of each specific project.
Funding and Acquisition Agreement - This document outlines the key provisions of the financing: payment of program and formation costs, establishment and formation of the district, issuance of bonds, tax and reporting requirements. The primary objective of this document is to detail the requirements for the construction/acquisition public infrastructure, capital projects, and related fees, how these public enhancements will be approved and accepted by the City, and the process by which such costs will be reimbursed from bond proceeds.
Joint Community Facilities Agreement - The document relates to the financing of infrastructure, capital projects, and development impact fees for other public agencies. The document outlines how these public enhancements will be approved and accepted by these respective agencies, and the process by which such costs will be reimbursed from bond proceeds.
The Reimbursement Resolution is also included for approval and allows the City to be reimbursed from CFD Bond proceeds for certain expenses incurred by the City prior to the issuance of the CFD Bonds.
Participation in the CEDA BAND program offers several advantages. Joining CEDA BAND is straightforward, requiring only the adoption of a resolution. Once part of the program, CEDA BAND’s financing team takes over all responsibilities typically handled by a City’s Finance Department, including formation, bond issuance, and post-sale compliance, thereby alleviating the burden on limited staff time and resources.
Additionally, CEDA BAND provides more competitive fees compared to other CFD conduit issuers. The program is designed as a turn-key solution, with a pre-assembled and experienced financing team already in place. Moreover, CEDA BAND holds weekly Board meetings every Thursday, ensuring a quick and efficient financing timeline.
DISCUSSION:
CEDA BAND will serve as a conduit issuer of CFD Bonds. The bonds are repaid solely from a special tax collected on the developer-owned property. The City is not financially responsible for making any debt service payments, nor to pay any fees.
Following the adoption of this resolution, the City will not be financial, legally, or administratively 615

Such proceedings include elections pursuant to Sections 53326, 53350 and 53353.5 of the Act on (i) the question of the issuance of the Bonds of the District to finance the acquisition of the Acquisition Facilities, and the design, planning, engineering, construction management, financing, installation and construction or acquisition of the Public Facilities, (ii) the question of the annual levy of the Special Taxes on those portions of the Property subject to the Special Taxes to pay for the Acquisition Facilities and the Public Facilities, to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds and the annual administrative expenses of CEDA in levying and collecting such Special Taxes, paying the principal and interest on such Bonds and providing for the registration, exchange and transfer of such Bonds, including the fees of fiscal agents and paying agents, and any necessary replenishment of the reserve fund for such Bonds, and (iii) the question of the establishment of an appropriations limit for the District.

Except as otherwise provided below, if Bonds have not been issued for a period of 36 months from the date of payment of Program Participant Fees for the first phase of production units, then the Program Participant may use any funds remaining in the Deposit Account for their lawful purposes and such funds shall be deemed by the Program Participant as the payment of the Program Participant Fees for the applicable parcels of the Property for which payment was made, provided that if Owner requests that Bonds be issued within such 36 month time frame, then the Program Participant may not use any funds remaining in the Deposit Account as provided herein until 48 months from the date of payment of Program Participant Fees for the first phase of production units. If the Program Participant uses any of the funds remaining in the Deposit Account under either of the two foregoing scenarios, the Owner, or Owner’s designee, shall be reimbursed from the proceeds of Bonds subsequently issued even if such Bonds must be issued on a taxable basis.

Section 3. Sale of Bonds. Upon Owner’s written request, CEDA shall use reasonable efforts, as hereinafter provided, to issue and sell Bonds, in one or more series, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and CEDA’s CFD Goals & Policies. Each series of Bonds is expected to have a debt service amortization schedule matching the annual Special Taxes available for debt service pursuant to the Rate and Method and for a term of not more than forty (40) years, for the purpose of raising an amount sufficient to pay for the design, planning, engineering, construction management, financing, installation and construction or acquisition of the Public Facilities and the Acquisition Facilities. In connection with the issuance of the first series of Bonds, CEDA on behalf of itself and the District shall establish criteria for the issuance of Additional Bonds which meet the criteria of CEDA’s CFD Goals & Policies. The timing of the issuance and sale of each series of Bonds, the aggregate principal amount thereof, and the terms and conditions upon which they shall be sold shall be as set forth in this Agreement and otherwise as determined by CEDA in its sole reasonable discretion after consultation with Owner. Not by way of limitation of the foregoing, the timing of the issuance and sale of the first series of Bonds and any Additional Bonds shall be as soon as reasonably practicable, as determined by CEDA in its sole reasonable discretion following consultation with its municipal advisor, underwriter and other consultants and counsel after written request from Owner. Owner shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with CEDA in connection with any Bond sale.
Section 4. Advance of Certain Expenses. Pursuant to a Landowner Deposit Agreement, between CEDA and Owner (the “Deposit Agreement”), Owner shall pay and advance all of the costs reasonably associated with the establishment of the District. Owner shall deposit funds with CEDA for CEDA’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with the formation of the District and the sale of each series of Bonds, including, but not limited to, (i) the fees and expenses of any consultants and legal counsel to CEDA employed in connection with the issuance of the Bonds, including an engineer, special tax consultant, municipal advisor, bond counsel and any other consultant deemed necessary or advisable by CEDA, (ii) the costs of appraisals, market absorption and feasibility studies and other reports deemed necessary or advisable by CEDA in connection with the issuance of the Bonds, (iii) the costs of publication of notices and other costs related to any proceeding undertaken in connection with the formation of the District and issuance of the Bonds, (iv) reasonable charges for CEDA and Program Participant staff time incurred in connection with the issuance of the Bonds, including a reasonable allocation of CEDA and the Program Participant overhead expense, and (v) any and all other actual costs and expenses incurred by CEDA and the Program Participant in connection with the formation of the District and the issuance of the Bonds (“Reimbursable Expenses”). If the Bonds are issued by the District, CEDA shall reimburse Owner from proceeds of the Bonds, without interest, for the portion of the Reimbursable Expenses deposits that have been expended or encumbered, said reimbursement to be made from the proceeds of the Bonds on the date of issuance of the Bonds or as soon as reasonably possible thereafter and only to the extent otherwise permitted under the Act, and refund any unexpended or encumbered deposited amounts.
629
09960.00000\42499432.1
4 CEDA shall keep records of all Reimbursable Expenses advanced by CEDA pursuant to this Section 4, which records shall be available for inspection by Owner during regular business hours. The sole source of funds for reimbursement of any advance expenditure made by CEDA or Owner shall be the uncommitted and unexpended payments made by Owner to CEDA, proceeds of the Bonds receipts as determined by CEDA.
Section 5. Tax Requirements. The timing of the sale of each series of Bonds, the nature of the investments in which the proceeds of the Bonds shall be invested, the duration of such investments, and the timing of the expenditure of such proceeds shall be as set forth in this Agreement and the applicable fiscal agent agreement (the “Fiscal Agent Agreement”); provided, that in all such matters CEDA shall comply with the requirements of and limitations prescribed by the provisions of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as amended, and the implementing regulations of the United States Department of the Treasury. CEDA shall not be required to take any such action which in the opinion of CEDA’s bond counsel could result in the Bonds being classified by the United States Department of the Treasury as “arbitrage bonds” or which could otherwise result in the interest on the Bonds being included in gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation. Should any change in or regulatory interpretation of any such requirement or limitation which may occur after the date of this Agreement require or necessitate, in the reasonable opinion of such bond counsel, any action on the part of CEDA in order to avoid such a classification or loss of tax exemption, CEDA shall notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, forthwith take such action. In the event CEDA fails to comply with requirements set forth above in this Section 5, CEDA’s liability is limited to the Special Tax revenues generated by the District. The Program Participant is required to hold and expend the Bond funds in compliance with the Code.
Section 6. Construction of Acquisition Facilities. The Acquisition Facilities for which Owner seeks reimbursement under this Agreement shall be constructed and completed by Owner, as determined by the Program Participant pursuant to Section 53313.5 of the Act. Payment of the Purchase Price of the Acquisition Facilities shall be in the manner described in Section 6 hereof. (a) Letting and Administering Design Contracts.

All eligible expenditures of the Owner for design engineering and related costs in connection with the Acquisition Facilities (whether as an advance to the Program Participant or directly to the design consultant) shall be reimbursed at the time of acquisition of such Acquisition Facilities. The Owner shall be entitled to reimbursement for any design costs of the Acquisition Facilities only out of the Purchase Price and shall not be entitled to any payment for design costs independent of or prior to the acquisition of Acquisition Facilities.
(b) Letting and Administration of Construction Contracts; Indemnification.
State law requires that all Acquisition Facilities not completed prior to the formation of the District shall be constructed as if they were constructed under the direction and supervision, or under the authority, of the Program Participant. In order to assure compliance with those provisions, except for any contracts entered into prior to the date hereof, Owner agrees to comply with the requirements set forth in Exhibit C hereto with respect to the bidding and contracting for the construction of the Acquisition Facilities. The Owner agrees that all the contracts shall call for 630
09960.00000\42499432.1
5 payment of prevailing wages as required by the Labor Code of the State of California. The Owner’s indemnification obligation set forth in this Agreement shall also apply to any alleged failure to comply with the requirements of this Section, and/or applicable State laws regarding public contracting and prevailing wages.
Section 7. Acquisition and Payment of Acquisition Facilities. (a) Inspection. Program Participant agrees that the Acquisition Facilities are eligible for payment, provided that the timing and amount of such payment shall be determined by the Program Participant pursuant to this Section 7 of this Agreement. No payment hereunder shall be made by the Program Participant to Owner for an Acquisition Facility until such Acquisition Facility has been inspected by the Program Participant or other applicable public entity or utility and found to be substantially completed in accordance with the approved Plans. An Acquisition Facility shall be considered “substantially complete” when it has been reasonably determined by the Program Participant or other applicable public entity to be usable. For Acquisition Facilities to be acquired by the Program Participant, Owner shall request inspection using applicable Program Participant procedures. For Acquisition Facilities to be acquired by other public entities or utilities, Owner shall be responsible for obtaining such inspections and providing written evidence thereof to the Program Participant Engineer. Owner agrees to pay all inspection, permit and other similar fees of the Program Participant applicable to construction of the Acquisition Facilities, which fees are subject to reimbursement under this Agreement. (b) Agreement to Sell and Purchase Acquisition Facilities. Owner hereby agrees to sell the Acquisition Facilities to the Program Participant and the Program Participant hereby agrees to use amounts available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to pay the Purchase Price, as defined below, thereof to Owner, subject to the terms and conditions hereof. The Program Participant shall not be obligated to pay the Purchase Price for the Acquisition Facilities except from the proceeds of the Bonds and proceeds of the Special Tax as provided herein.

In order to receive the Purchase Price for an Acquisition Facility, Owner shall deliver to the City Manager or his or her designee (the “Authorized Representative”) a “Payment Request” in the form of Exhibit C hereto, together with all attachments and exhibits required by this Section 7(d) to be included therewith. If the property on which the Acquisition Facility is located is not owned by the Program Participant at the time of the request, Owner shall provide a copy of the recorded documents conveying to the Program Participant Acceptable Title to the real property on, in or over which such Acquisition Facility is located, as described in Section 8(a) hereof.
(e) Processing Payment Requests. Upon receipt of a Payment Request (and all accompanying documents), the Authorized Representative shall conduct a review in order to confirm that such request is complete and to verify and approve the Actual Cost of the Acquisition Facility. The Authorized Representative shall also conduct such review as is required in his/her discretion to confirm the matters certified in the Payment Request. Owner agrees to cooperate 631
09960.00000\42499432.1
6 with the Authorized Representative in conducting each such review and to provide the Authorized Representative with such additional information and documentation as is reasonably necessary for the Authorized Representative to conclude each such review. Within 20 business days of receipt of the Payment Request, the Authorized Representative expects to review the request for completeness and notify Owner whether such Payment Request is complete, and, if not, what additional documentation must be provided. If such Payment Request is complete, the Authorized Representative expects to provide a written approval or denial (specifying the reason for any denial) of the request within 30 days of its submittal. (f) Payment. Upon approval of the Payment Request by the Authorized Representative, the Authorized Representative shall sign the Payment Request and forward the same to CEDA. Upon receipt of the reviewed and fully signed Payment Request, CEDA shall cause the same to be paid by the Fiscal Agent under the applicable provisions of the Fiscal Agent Agreement, to the extent of funds then on deposit in the appropriate account.
The Purchase Price paid hereunder for the Acquisition Facilities shall constitute payment in full for the Acquisition Facilities, including, without limitation, payment for all labor, materials, equipment, tools and services used or incorporated in the work, supervision, administration, overhead, expenses and any and all other things required, furnished or incurred for completion of the Acquisition Facilities.
(g) Timing of Requisitions. The Program Participant and Owner acknowledge that (i) Owner may submit a Payment Request for an Acquisition Facility to the Program Participant in advance of when sufficient, if any, funds are available for payment of the Purchase Price; (ii) the Payment Request submitted when there are insufficient proceeds available will be reviewed by the Program Participant as set forth in this Agreement and, if appropriate, approved for payment when such funds are available and (iii) the payment approved in the preceding manner will be deferred until the date, if any, on which there are proceeds of Special Taxes or Bonds available to make all or part of such payment, at which time the Program Participant will pay from the Special Fund or direct the Fiscal Agent to wire transfer (or pay in another mutually acceptable manner) from Bond proceeds the funds available to the payee identified in such Payment Request. (h) Restrictions on Payments. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the following restrictions shall apply to any payments made to Owner under Sections 8(b) and 8(f) hereof:
(1) Amounts of Payments. Subject to the following paragraphs of this Section 7(h), payments for the Acquisition Facilities will be made only in the amount of the Purchase Price for the Acquisition Facilities.
Nothing herein shall require the Program Participant in any event (i) to pay more than the Actual Cost of the Acquisition Facilities, or (ii) to make any payment beyond the available funds in the Special Fund or the applicable accounts identified in the Fiscal Agent Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that all payments to Owner for the Purchase Price of the Acquisition Facilities are intended to be reimbursements to Owner for monies already expended or for immediate payment by Owner (or directly by the Program Participant) to third parties in respect of the Acquisition Facilities.
632
09960.00000\42499432.1
7 (2) Joint or Third Party Payments. CEDA may make any payment jointly to Owner and any mortgagee or trust deed beneficiary, contractor or supplier of materials, as their interests may appear, or solely to any such third party, if Owner so requests the same in writing or as CEDA otherwise determines such joint or third party payment is necessary to obtain lien releases.
(3) Withholding Payments. CEDA shall be entitled, but shall not be required, to withhold any payment hereunder for the Acquisition Facilities if Owner or any Affiliate is delinquent in the payment of ad valorem real property taxes, special assessments or taxes, or Special Taxes levied in the District. In the event of any such delinquency, CEDA shall only make payments hereunder directly to contractors or other third parties employed in connection with the construction of the Acquisition Facilities or to any assignee of Owner’s interests in this Agreement (and not to Owner or any Affiliate), until such time as Owner provides the Authorized Representative with evidence that all such delinquent taxes and assessments have been paid.
CEDA shall withhold final payment for an Acquisition Facility constructed on land until Acceptable Title to such land is conveyed to the Program Participant, as described in Section 8 hereof.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to prohibit Owner from contesting in good faith the validity or amount of any mechanics or materialman’s lien nor limit the remedies available to Owner with respect thereto so long as such delay in performance shall not subject the Acquisition Facility to foreclosure, forfeiture or sale. In the event that any such lien is contested, Owner shall only be required to post or cause the delivery of a bond in an amount equal to the amount in dispute with respect to any such contested lien, so long as such bond is drawn on an obligor and is otherwise in a form acceptable to the Authorized Representative. (i) Modification of Acquisition Facilities and Public Facilities. The descriptions of the Acquisition Facilities and Public Facilities in Exhibit A may be modified, or new Acquisition Facilities and Public Facilities may be added to Exhibit A, through a Supplement executed by the Parties hereto provided the modifications or new Acquisition Facilities and Public Facilities are consistent with the facilities and costs authorized to be funded by the District pursuant to the formation proceedings and the Act.
Section 8. Ownership and Transfer of Acquisition Facilities. (a) Conveyance of Land and Easements to Program Participant. Acceptable Title to all property on, in or over which the Acquisition Facilities will be located, shall be deeded over to the Program Participant by way of grant deed, quitclaim, or dedication of such property, or easement thereon, if such conveyance of interest is approved by the Program Participant as being a sufficient interest therein to permit the Program Participant to properly own, operate and maintain the Acquisition Facilities located therein, thereon or thereover, and to permit Owner to perform its obligations as set forth in this Agreement. Owner agrees to assist the Program Participant in obtaining such documents as are required to obtain Acceptable Title. Completion of the transfer of title to land shall be accomplished prior to the payment of the Purchase Price for 633

The Program Participant shall approve the preliminary title report unless it reveals a matter which, in the judgment of the Program Participant, could materially affect the Program Participant’s use and enjoyment of any part of the property or easement covered by the preliminary title report. In the event the Program Participant does not approve the preliminary title report, the Program Participant shall not be obligated to accept title to such Acquisition Facility or pay the Purchase Price for the Acquisition Facility until Owner has cured such objections to title to the satisfaction of the Program Participant.
(c) Facilities Constructed on Private Lands. If any portion of an Acquisition Facility is located on privately-owned land, the owner thereof shall retain title to the land and the completed Acquisition Facility until the Acquisition Facility is accepted by the Program Participant and transferred to Program Participant pursuant to this Section 8. Pending the completion of such transfer, Owner shall not be entitled to receive any payment for the Acquisition Facility. Owner shall, however, be entitled to receive payments pursuant to Section 7 of the Acquisition Facility upon making an irrevocable offer of dedication of such land in form and substance acceptable to the Authorized Representative.
(d) Facilities Constructed on Program Participant Land. If any portion of an Acquisition Facility to be acquired is on land owned by the Program Participant, the Program Participant hereby grants to Owner a license to enter upon such land for purposes related to the construction (and maintenance pending acquisition) of the Acquisition Facility. The provisions for inspection and acceptance of the Acquisition Facilities otherwise provided herein shall apply.

635
09960.00000\42499432.1
10 G. Continuing Disclosure. Owner agrees to comply with all of its obligations under any continuing disclosure agreement executed by it in connection with the offering and sale of any of the Bonds. Owner shall cooperate with CEDA in complying with the requirements of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the issuance and sale of the Bonds. Owner shall provide information to CEDA regarding its operations and financial condition as such information has been disclosed in the Official Statement.

If Owner owns property within the District responsible for more than 20% of the Special Taxes levied in such fiscal year, then Owner acknowledges that it may be an “obligated person” for purposes of compliance with Rule 15c2-12(b)(5) of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that it may therefore be necessary that Owner enter into a continuing disclosure undertaking, at the time of and in connection with the issuance and sale of the Bonds, that so long as it remains an obligated person it will semi-annually, at the time specified in such undertaking, provide information regarding its financial condition, including, at CEDA’s discretion, such regularly submitted periodic reports and financial statements prepared by Owner’s certified public accountant which are available to the investing public (which may be consolidated with Owner’s parent company) and the status of development and residential and land sale activity within the District to be included within the semi-annual reports which Owner, or a dissemination agent designated in such undertaking, will file with the Nationally Recognized Municipal Securities Information Repositories which are identified by the Securities and Exchange Commission and any state information repository that may be designated for the State of California, as required by that rule. Copies of all such reports shall also be provided to CEDA and the underwriter of the Bonds. Owner further acknowledges that it may be an obligated person pursuant to such rule as long as it owns property within the District that is responsible for the payment of annual Special Taxes which represent 20% or more of the annual debt service on the Bonds. If Owner sells any portion of property within the District to an entity and such entity will own property within the District which will be responsible for the payment of annual Special Taxes which represent 20% or more of the annual debt service on the Bonds, Owner shall notify such entity that it will be an obligated person for purposes of the rule and that such entity will be required to enter into a continuing disclosure undertaking as provided in this section.

09960.00000\42499432.1
11 acquisition and/or equipping of the Acquisition Facilities and Public Facilities, and (ii) that this Agreement is being entered into, and the Special Taxes are being imposed upon the Property pursuant to the Rate and Method, in accordance with existing laws relating to the imposition of fees and charges as a condition of development of the Property and such Special Taxes are being incurred as an incident of the voluntary act of development of the Property. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Owner, for itself and for each of its successors and assigns as owners or lessees of all or any portion of the Property included in the District hereby waives any right to exercise the initiative power that may be authorized in California Constitution Article XIIIC, Section 3, to reduce or appeal the Special Taxes.
Section 15. Disclosure of Special Taxes.
(a) From and after the date of this Agreement, Owner shall provide a “Notice of Special Tax” (as defined in Section 15(b) below) to each prospective purchaser of a home in the District prior to the execution by the home buyer of the sale contract for such home.

Within thirty (30) days of such written notice, CEDA shall record a notice of cancellation of the Special Taxes with respect to each parcel. Owner shall be responsible for reasonable CEDA costs incurred relating to the cancellation of the Special Taxes and recordation of such notice; provided, however, that CEDA shall not terminate the Special Taxes for any lot for which a building permit has been issued, unless Owner pays all Program Participant Fees or posts separate security therefore. Such termination of this Agreement and cancellation of Special Taxes shall have no effect on Owner’s obligations to pay Program Participant Fees upon issuance of a building permit.

The District shall automatically become a party to this Agreement, and all provisions hereof which apply to CEDA shall also apply to the District.

2 WHEREAS, this Agreement is made under the authority of Section 53316.2 of the Act; and
WHEREAS, in consideration for the mutual undertakings of the Parties stated herein, the Parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
Section 1. Administration of CFDs and Issuance of Bonds by CEDA. The CFDs shall be established and administered in accordance with CEDA’s Statement of Goals and Policies for Mello-Roos Community Facilities Districts, attached hereto as Exhibit A. CEDA shall administer the CFDs, including employing and paying all consultants, annually levying the Special Taxes and paying and administering the Bonds, and complying with all State and federal requirements appertaining to the proceedings establishing the CFDs and issuing and using the proceeds of the Bonds, including the requirements of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) with respect to the tax-exempt Bonds that are issued. The Program Participant shall execute and deliver such certifications and agreements as may reasonably be required in order for bond counsel to CEDA to conclude that interest on any tax-exempt Bonds will be excluded from gross income under the Code, if applicable. To the extent such certifications and agreements cannot be executed with respect to certain Program Participant Fees, Bonds may be issued on a taxable basis, in CEDA’s sole discretion.
Section 2. Agreement to Hold Available Moneys. CEDA shall hold or cause to be held within a separate fund (the “Project Fund”) proceeds of each series of Bonds issued to finance Program Participant Improvements, as well as proceeds of Special Taxes levied by the CFDs for “pay-as-you-go” funding from Special Taxes collected in excess of the amounts needed for bond debt service and administration expenses (such bond proceeds and excess amounts are referred to as “Available Moneys”). The Project Fund shall be segregated from all other funds and, except for investment purposes, shall not be commingled with any other funds. The Project Fund may include separate accounts as necessary to separately account for the proceeds of tax-exempt and taxable Bonds (the “Tax-Exempt Account” and “Taxable Account,” respectively) and to account for the proceeds of such Bonds that are to fund Program Participant Fees and Acquisition Improvements.
Investment earnings on amounts in each Tax-Exempt Account shall be retained in the Tax-Exempt Account, except to the extent a portion of such earnings are used to pay rebate or yield reduction payments to the U.S. Treasury pursuant to the Code. Amounts on deposit in the Project Fund shall be disbursed in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement and CEDA agrees to disburse, or cause to be disbursed, moneys on deposit in the Project Fund as provided herein. All Program Participant Fees funded through Available Moneys shall be deemed paid in the amount of the Bond proceeds on the date that such Bond proceeds are deposited with the Program Participant.
Section 3. Disbursements From Special Taxes and Bond Proceeds. Proceeds from all Bonds and Special Taxes shall be disbursed in accordance with each Funding and Acquisition Agreement to be entered into among the Program Participant, CEDA and the developer, or property owner of the applicant property, with respect to each CFD (each an “Acquisition Agreement”).

Section 5. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by a writing signed by the Parties, including any exhibit hereto; provided, that no amendments to Section 3 shall be made without the prior written consent of the developer.
Section 6. Term of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be in full force and effect from this date to and including its termination by mutual written agreement of the parties hereto prior to the formation of the CFD.

WHEREAS, beginning the 60-day period prior to the date hereof, the City has paid or incurred, or expects to pay or incur, costs with respect to the Facilities prior to the issuance of the CFD Bonds in order to finance the Facilities; and WHEREAS, the City also may pay or incur certain ‘preliminary expenditures’ in connection with the Facilities, which term includes architectural, engineering, surveying, soil testing, reimbursement bond issuance, and similar costs that are incurred prior to commencement of acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of a project, other than land acquisition, site preparation, and similar costs incident to commencement of construction; and
WHEREAS, in order to reimburse itself for the payment, or pay unpaid costs, of the Facilities, the City anticipates that CEDA will issue CFD Bonds in an amount not expected to exceed $25,000,000 for the purpose of financing costs of the Facilities; and WHEREAS, proceeds of the CFD Bonds will be allocated to reimbursement expenditures no later than 18 months after the later of (i) the date the cost is paid, or (ii) the date the Facilities (or each component thereof) is placed in service or abandoned (but in no event more than three years after the cost is paid); and WHEREAS, Section 1.150-2 of the Treasury Regulations requires the City to declare its reasonable official intent to reimburse prior expenditures for the Facilities with proceeds of indebtedness; and
WHEREAS, the City now wishes to declare its official intent to use proceeds of indebtedness (such as the CFD Bonds) to reimburse expenditures of the Facilities paid before its obligations are issued and to finance the Facilities costs on a long-term basis with the proceeds of such indebtedness.
