DATE: March 12, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jessie Flores, City Manager
BY: Brenda Lopez, City Clerk/Director of Governmental Services SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO.1 BETWEEN JAMES C HIRSCH, AICP,
ASSOC AIA CORP AND THE CITY OF ADELANTO
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with James C. Hirsch AICP, ASSOC AIA Corp to ensure continued land use planning services.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Adelanto contracted with James C. Hirsch AICP, ASSOC AIA Corp on March 1, 2024, for planning services. The initial contract expired, and the City would like to extend it by 1 year. The contract needs to be decreased by $37,000 for a not to exceed amount of $275,000.
Yearly Land Use Planning Highlights by James Hirsch:
1. Wrote Amendment to the existing 1985 Controlled Access Highway Agreement between the City and Caltrans.
Devised strategy to amend the Agreement with Caltrans, (CT) District 8, Caltrans Headquarters and the California Transportation Commission, (CTC) to be heard by the CTC in May 2025. Coordinated with City Manager, Mayor and Mayor Pro-Tem in outreach to SCAG, SBCTA, CT to process the Amendment.
2. Entitled and monitored construction of 2000 acres of solar panels developed by AES to generate 400 MW of electricity. Determined that they had installed 720 lithium- ion storage batteries without proper environmental and City entitlements. Negotiated a settlement of $ 2,500,000 with AES to be paid when the final permits are obtained to complete the battery storage project in May 2025.
3. Entitled over 4 ½ million square feet of logistics/warehouse space including one 2 ½ million square foot facility and other facilities ranging from 150,000 square feet to 650,000 square feet. 38 To continue to provide land use planning services we propose the following amendments:
• Extension of Contract Term:
An extension of one additional year, allowing continued land use planning services. • Compensation:
A decrease to the contract in the amount of $37,000 for a not to exceed amount of $275,000.
These adjustments will enable us to maintain our commitment to effective service delivery, ensuring that the City complies with all local, state and federal environmental requirements.
FISCAL IMPACT:
• Contract amount not to exceed $275,000. Funds are available in the City’s existing budget.
ATTACHMENTS:
• Amendment No. 1 document

Contractor agrees that the requirement to provide insurance shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which Contractor may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property resulting from Contractor’s activities or the activities of any person or persons for which Contractor is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit Contractor’s indemnification liabilities as provided in Section 5. Insurance or bonds required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated “A” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide, or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Contract Administrator in the Contract Administrator’s sole discretion.

c. Additional Insured; Primary Insurance. City and its officers, employees, agents, and authorized volunteers shall be covered as additional insureds with respect to each of the following: liability arising out of the Services performed by or on behalf of Contractor, including the insured’s general supervision of Contractor; products and completed operations of Contractor, as applicable; premises owned, occupied, or used by Contractor; and automobiles owned, leased, or used by Contractor in the course of providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City or its officers, employees, agents, or authorized volunteers. The insurance provided to City as an additional insured must apply on a primary and non-contributory basis with respect to any insurance or self-insurance program maintained by City. Additional insured status shall continue for one (1) year after the expiration or termination of this Agreement or completion of the Services.
A certified endorsement must be attached to all policies stating that coverage is primary insurance with respect to City and its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers, and that no insurance or self-insurance maintained by City shall be called upon to contribute to a loss under the coverage. The insurer is deemed hereof to waive all rights of subrogation and contribution it may have against City, its officers, employees, agents, authorized volunteers, and their respective insurers.
d. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Contractor shall obtain the written approval of City for the self-insured retentions and deductibles before beginning any of the Services. During the term of this Agreement, only upon the prior express written authorization of the Contract Administrator, Contractor may increase such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to City, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers. The Contract Administrator may condition approval of an increase in deductible or self-insured retention levels with a requirement that Contractor procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses that is satisfactory in all respects to each of them.
e. Subcontractors. Contractor shall include all subcontractors as insureds under its policies or shall furnish separate certificates and certified endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverages for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein.
f. Variation. The Contract Administrator may, but is not required to, approve in writing a variation in the foregoing insurance requirements, upon a determination that the coverage, scope, limits, and forms of such insurance are either not commercially available, or that City’s interests are otherwise fully protected.
4.6 Payment and Performance Bonds. Concurrently with execution of this Agreement, Contractor shall deliver to City a payment (labor and materials) bond and a performance bond, each in the sum of the amount of this Agreement, in the forms provided by the City Clerk, which secure the faithful performance of this Agreement. The bonds shall contain the original notarized signature of an authorized officer of the surety and affixed thereto shall be a certified and current copy of his power of attorney. The bonds shall be unconditional and remain in force during the entire term of this Agreement and shall be null and void only if Contractor promptly and faithfully performs all terms and conditions of this Agreement. Payment and performance bonds shall be 309
2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a02/25/25 -13-
secured from a surety company rated Grade “A” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide, or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Contract Administrator due to unique circumstances, and shall be authorized to write such bonds in the State of California. Contractor shall pay all bond premiums, costs, and incidentals. Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 22300, substitution of eligible equivalent securities for any moneys withheld to ensure performance under this Agreement may be permitted at the request and expense of Contractor. Without limiting the foregoing, Contractor understands that Civil Code Section 9550 requires a payment bond for all public works contracts involving an expenditure of more than Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000).
4.7 Remedies. In addition to any other remedies at law or equity City may have if Contractor fails to provide or maintain any insurance policies or policy endorsements to the extent and within the time herein required, City may, at its sole option, exercise any of the following remedies, which are alternatives to other remedies City may have and are not the exclusive remedy for Contractor’s breach:
a. Obtain such insurance and deduct and retain the amount of the premiums for such insurance from any sums due under this Agreement; b. Order Contractor to stop work under this Agreement or withhold any payment that becomes due to Contractor hereunder, or both stop work and withhold any payment, until Contractor demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof; and/or c. Terminate this Agreement.

5.2 Indemnification for Other than Professional Liability. Other than in the performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel selected by City), and hold harmless City, and any and all of its officers, employees, officials, volunteers, and agents from and against any and all Claims, where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in 310
2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a02/25/25 -14-
part, the performance of this Agreement by Contractor or by any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of Contractor.

5.3 Subcontractors. Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors. Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify City, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof.
5.4 Limitation of Indemnification. The provisions of this Section 5 do not apply to claims occurring as a result of City’s sole or active negligence. The provisions of this Section 5 shall not release City from liability arising from gross negligence or willful acts or omissions of City or any and all of its officers, officials, employees, and agents acting in an official capacity.
In the event any applicable law contains a limitation on indemnification under this Agreement, such limitation shall supersede the provisions herein only to the extent required by said law.

At all times during the term of this Agreement, Contractor shall be an independent contractor and shall not be an employee of City. City shall have the right to control Contractor only insofar as the results of the Services rendered pursuant to this Agreement and assignment of personnel pursuant to Subsection 1.4; however, otherwise City shall not have the right to control the means by which Contractor accomplishes the Services rendered pursuant to this Agreement.
The personnel performing the Services under this Agreement on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Contractor’s exclusive direction and control.

Contractor shall perform all Services required herein as an independent contractor of City and shall remain at all times as to City a wholly independent contractor with only such obligations as are consistent with that role.
City shall not in any way or for any purpose become or be deemed to be a partner of Contractor in its business or otherwise or a joint venturer or a member of any joint enterprise with Contractor. 311

or any other similar law; and/or (iii) failure by Contractor or any party performing the Services to provide any required disclosure or identification as required by California Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be amended from time to time, and/or any other similar law.
7.4 Licenses and Permits, Fees, and Assessments. Contractor represents, warrants, and covenants to City that Contractor and its employees, agents, and any subcontractors have all licenses, permits, qualifications, and approvals of whatsoever nature that are legally required to practice their respective professions, and perform the Services. Contractor represents, warrants, and covenants to City that Contractor and its employees, agents, and subcontractors shall, at their sole cost and expense, keep in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement any licenses, permits, and approvals that are legally required to practice their respective professions, and perform the Services. In addition to the foregoing, Contractor and any subcontractors shall obtain and maintain during the term of this Agreement valid business licenses from City. Contractor shall have the sole obligation to pay for any fees, assessments, and taxes, plus applicable penalties and interest, which may be imposed by law and arise from or are necessary for Contractor’s performance of the Services, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless City, its officers, employees or agents of City, against any such fees, assessments, taxes, penalties or interest levied, assessed, or imposed against City hereunder.
7.5 Conflicts of Interest. Contractor represents, warrants, and covenants that Contractor presently has no interest, direct or indirect, which would interfere with or impair in any manner or degree the performance of Contractor’s obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement. Contractor further agrees that while this Agreement is in effect, Contractor shall not acquire or otherwise obtain any interest, direct or indirect, that would interfere with or impair in any manner or degree the performance of Contractor’s obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement.
7.6 Unfair Business Practices Claims. In entering into this Agreement, Contractor offers and agrees to assign to City all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. § 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, (commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services, or materials related to this Agreement. This assignment shall be made and become effective at the time City renders final payment to Contractor without further acknowledgment of the Parties.
7.7 Annual Appropriation of Funding. In accord with Article 16 Section 18 of the California Constitution, payment of compensation under this Agreement is contingent upon annual appropriation of funds by City for that purpose. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that to the extent that the Services extend beyond one (1) fiscal year, payment for such Services is expressly conditioned on City’s annual appropriation of funds for such Services for each year. If no funds are appropriated then this Agreement shall be terminated. City pledges and agrees to process such appropriation requests annually and in good faith. Nothing in this Subsection shall be construed to limit the right of either Party to terminate this Agreement as provided herein.
7.8 Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to 314
2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a02/25/25 -18-
City the sum of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($500.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the Services. City may withhold from any monies payable on account of the Services performed by Contractor any accrued liquidated damages.
SECTION 8. TERMINATION AND MODIFICATION.
8.1 Termination. City may terminate this Agreement at any time and without cause upon thirty (30) days’ written notification to Contractor. City may also terminate this Agreement pursuant to Subsection 8.8.
8.2 Termination by Contractor. Contractor may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City.
8.3 Consequences of Termination. In the event of termination, Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for the Services satisfactorily performed up to the date of termination; City, however, may condition payment of such compensation upon Contractor delivering to City any or all materials provided to Contractor or prepared by or for Contractor or City in connection with this Agreement. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all Services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Administrator.
8.4 Administrative Change Orders. City shall have the right at any time during the performance of the Services, without invalidating this Agreement, to order extra work beyond that specified in the Scope of Services or make changes by altering, adding to, or deducting from said work. No such extra work may be undertaken unless a written change order is first given by the Contract Administrator to Contractor, incorporating therein any adjustment in (I) the total compensation, and/or (ii) the time to perform this Agreement, which said adjustments are subject to the written approval of Contractor. Any increase in compensation of up to five percent (5%) of the total compensation or TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($25,000), whichever is less; or in the time to perform of up to one hundred eighty (180) days may be approved in writing by the Contract Administrator. Contractor understands and agrees that, if City grants an extension in time without additional work, City shall have no obligation to provide Contractor with compensation beyond the maximum amount provided for in this Agreement. Similarly, unless authorized by the Contract Administrator, City shall have no obligation to reimburse Contractor for any otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred during the extension period. All other extensions or modifications to this Agreement shall require a written amendment pursuant to Subsection 8.5.
8.5 Amendments. The Parties may amend this Agreement only by a writing signed by all the Parties. The Contract Administrator shall have the authority to execute amendments to this Agreement which do not materially change the terms hereof, in the Contract Administrator’s discretion, to the extent permitted by applicable federal, state, and local law. The Contract Administrator may refer any proposed amendment to the City Council for review and approval.
8.6 Assignment and Subcontracting. City and Contractor recognize and agree that this Agreement contemplates personal performance by Contractor and is based upon a determination of Contractor’s unique personal competence, experience, and specialized personal knowledge. 315
2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a02/25/25 -19-
Moreover, a substantial inducement to City for entering into this Agreement was and is the professional reputation and competence of Contractor. Contractor may not assign this Agreement or any interest therein without the prior written approval of the Contract Administrator. Contractor shall not subcontract any portion of the performance contemplated and provided for herein, other than to the subcontractors noted in the Scope of Services, without prior written approval of the Contract Administrator. In the event of any unapproved assignment, including in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding, this Agreement shall be void. No approved assignment shall release Contractor or any surety of Contractor of any liability hereunder without the express consent of City.
8.7 Survival. All obligations arising prior to the expiration or termination of this Agreement and all provisions of this Agreement allocating liability between City and Contractor shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
8.8 Disputes, Default. In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any of the Services performed after the date of default. Instead, City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, in the sole discretion of the Contract Administrator. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, City's remedies shall include, but not be limited to, any or all of the following:
a. Immediately terminate this Agreement;
b. Retain the plans, specifications, drawings, reports, design documents, and any other work product prepared by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement; c. Retain a different contractor to complete the Services; and/or d. Charge Contractor the difference between the cost to complete the Services that is unfinished at the time of breach and the amount that City would have paid Contractor pursuant to Section 2 if Contractor had completed the Services.
Any failure on the part of City to give notice of Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
8.9 Claims by Contractor. Claims, as that term is defined in California Public Contract Code Section 9204, by Contractor and, where applicable, any subcontractor, in connection with a public works project shall by subject to the mediation procedure in California Public Contract Code Section 9204.

Contractor hereby acknowledges that City is greatly concerned about the cost of the Services to be performed pursuant to this Agreement. For this reason, Contractor agrees that if Contractor becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or will materially increase or decrease the cost of the Services contemplated herein or, if Contractor is providing design services, the cost of the project being designed, Contractor shall promptly notify the Contract Administrator of said fact, circumstance, technique, or event and the estimated increased or decreased cost related thereto and, if Contractor is providing design services, the estimated increased or decreased cost estimate for the project being designed.

Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response. Response to a subpoena or court order shall not be considered a voluntary disclosure so long as Contractor gives City notice of such court order or subpoena as provided herein. Contractor understands and agrees that it may be required to provide documents to the City to be produced in response to a Public Records Act request.
