1. PUBLIC HEARING CITY OF ADELANTO LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 1, ANNEXATION OF BELLFLOWER-TRACT 20675 (2024-033) CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council take the next and final steps to complete the annexation process for Tract 20675.

It is requested that the City Council open the Public Hearing regarding the annexation of Tract 20675 to the District and the proposed assessments in order to accept public testimony and any written protests regarding these proceedings. Upon conclusion of the public testimony, the Mayor will close the Public Hearing and direct the City Clerk or their designee to open and tabulate the ballots received, which may take a few minutes. Upon completion of the tabulation, the City Clerk will present to the City Council the results of that tabulation which will be in the form of total dollars ($) in support of the assessments (“Yes” votes) and the total dollars ($) opposed to the assessments (“No” votes); and as a matter of procedure, the City Council would then adopt the first of two resolutions which formally declares the results of the protest ballot proceedings.

Based on the weighted ballot tabulation results, if the “No” votes exceed the “Yes” votes then there is a majority protest of the proposed assessments, and the City Council will abandon any further proceedings at this time to annex this Annexation Territory to the District or to levy the annual assessments. If majority protest does not exist, it is requested that the City Council adopt the second resolution which formally annexes Tract 20675 to the District, confirms the Assessment Diagram and assessments outlined in the Engineer’s Report, and orders the levy and collection of the assessments for the Annexation Territory to be collected on the County tax rolls for Fiscal Year 2025/2026 as identified in the Engineer’s Report.

FROM THE CITY CLERK DEPARTMENT, AS OUTLINED IN THE ATTACHED RECORDS

DESTRUCTION SHEETS (ATTACHMENTS A) AND THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT RECORDS DESTRUCTION SHEETS (ATTACHMENT B).

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 25-54 to approve the destruction of certain records from the City Clerk Department and Finance Department as specified in the attached Records Destruction Sheets. The destruction will be done by shredding, and the process will be witnessed to ensure proper compliance with legal and procedural guidelines.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Adelanto maintains numerous records for operational and legal purposes. However, as time progresses, certain records are no longer necessary and, under the California Government Code, may be destroyed after fulfilling their retention period.

In accordance with Section 34090 of the Government Code of the State of California, the City Council may authorize the destruction of records that are no longer needed for the effective operation of City functions. The City has adopted a Records Retention Schedule under Resolution 23-68, which specifies the retention periods for records of various departments.

The City Clerk and Finance Departments have reviewed their records and identified documents that are now obsolete and no longer required. These documents have met the retention requirements and are eligible for destruction.

Resolution No. 25-54 authorizes the destruction of specific records from the City Clerk Department, as outlined in the attached Records Destruction Sheets (Attachments A ) and Finance Department, as outlined in the attached Records Destruction Sheets (Attachments B ) . The destruction will be carried out in compliance with Section 34090 of the Government Code, and the process will be supervised by the Records Manager or their designee.
66 FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no significant fiscal impact anticipated from the destruction of these records, as the process is part of regular records management and maintenance practices. 67 RESOLUTION NO. 25-54

DATE: September 10, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jessie Flores, City Manager
BY: Virginia Velis, Executive Assistant/Deputy City Clerk SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT WITH HIGH DESERT OUTREACH CENTER IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $25,178 STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the independent contractor agreement with High Desert Outreach Center, in an amount not to exceed $25,178.00 for the services provided.

BACKGROUND:

The primary national objectives of the Federal Community Development Block Grant (“CDBG”) Program are to undertake activities that benefit low- and moderate-income persons and/or eliminate slum and blight conditions in the City. The program requires that at least 70 percent of the program funds be spent on activities that benefit low- and moderate-income people.

The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) promulgates the funds and regulations for the CDBG program. Cities with populations below 50,000 do not receive funding directly from HUD but instead participate through the County of San Bernardino Department of Community Development and Housing (the “County”). For the City of Adelanto, the City receives its CDBG funds as a “participating city” through the County.

On December 11, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 24.95 authorizing the allocations of CDBG funds to eligible projects for Fiscal Year 2025/2026. As part of this allocation, $45,178.00 of the funds were designated for Community Based Organizations (“CBOs”) for the aid and support of low to moderate income families. The High Desert Outreach Center was selected to provide weekly food distribution to approximately 80 low to moderate income households in Adelanto and the surrounding area.

For the City to be reimbursed for the services provided by the CBOs, the County requires that an Independent Contractor Agreement be executed by the CBO and the City prior to any reimbursements being processed. Entering into the proposed agreements will ensure that the city is compliant with HUD and County requirements and that the services provided remain reimbursable. 160
FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no impact to the current Fiscal Year 2025/2026 budget. The City will receive 100% reimbursement from Federal CDBG funds in the amount of $25,178.00 for the High Desert Outreach Center, for a total amount of $25,178.00.

SUBRECIPIENT CONTRACT
This Contract is made and entered into, by and between the City of Adelanto, hereinafter referred to as “CITY”, and High Desert Outreach Center, a non-profit organization, hereinafter referred to as “CONTRACTOR”.

WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, CITY has entered into a Contract with San Bernardino County (COUNTY) Department of Community Development and Housing, hereinafter referred to as “CDH”, to execute the CITY’s Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, as amended, hereinafter referred to as the "ACT"; and, WHEREAS, CONTRACTOR desires to participate in the CITY’s CDBG program and is qualified by reason of experience, preparation, organization, staffing, and facilities to provide Food Distribution services; and,
WHEREAS, on December 11, 2024, the Adelanto City Council held a Public Hearing to allocate the City’s Community Development Block Grant Funds for Fiscal Year 2025-2026. During the hearings, the City allocated $ 25,178 of CDBG funds to provide Food Distribution program(s) to 168 persons monthly in the City of Adelanto.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein set forth and the mutual benefits to be derived therefrom, the parties agree as follows:

1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
A full description of the services provided in this Contract is contained in Exhibit 1, PROJECT/ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION.

All beneficiaries of the program services shall be low- and moderate-income persons or households, as defined in Section 20, BENEFICIARY QUALIFICATION.

2. TIME OF PERFORMANCE
Said services of CONTRACTOR shall commence July 1, 2025, and shall be completed no later than May 30, 2026.

3. COMPENSATION AND METHOD OF PAYMENT
For performance of such services, CITY shall provide CDBG funds not to exceed $ 25,178. This payment shall constitute full and complete compensation for CONTRACTOR’s services under this Contract. For the purpose of this Contract, CITY shall disburse compensation and monitor CONTRACTOR’s performance in satisfying the scope of work obligations under the terms of this Contract.

Disbursement of payments to CONTRACTOR shall be made by monthly reimbursements, contingent upon CITY’s receipt of a monthly summary statement for each previous month’s expenditures which conforms to Exhibit 2, BUDGET SUMMARY. Monthly expenditure reports shall be documented with "audit ready" supportive evidence of each expenditure and proof of payment, in accordance with United States of America Department of Housing and Urban Development, hereinafter referred to as “HUD” regulations. Reimbursements shall be limited to the total approved, properly documented expenditures. All reimbursement requests must be submitted no 162

Page 2 of 14 ends

later than 15 days after the expiration of this Contract. Requests received after said 30-day period shall be considered non-compliant and not eligible for reimbursement under the terms of this Contract. CONTRACTOR shall submit a final request for reimbursement for the program year no later than June 15, 2025. Any balance remaining in this project after that date will be reprogrammed.

CONTRACTOR must submit said monthly expenditure reports and program progress reports (see Exhibit 4, MONTHLY PROGRAM PROGRESS AND DIRECT BENEFIT REPORT) by the 10th day after the prior month of activity to the CITY regardless of expenditure amount. After receipt by CITY of each properly documented expenditure report, CITY will draw a warrant in favor of CONTRACTOR for the approved expenditure amount. Submittal of an expenditure report and Exhibit 4 after the 10th day of the month, in which payment is requested, will cause unavoidable delays in payment processing.

4. BUDGET SECTION
Variances not exceeding 15% of originally approved budget cost categories identified in Exhibit 2, BUDGET SUMMARY, may be made without the prior approval of the CDH Director or his or her designee. Such variances shall under no circumstances result in a change to the total contract amount.

5. USE OF FUNDS
Funds allocated pursuant to this Contract shall be used exclusively for costs included in CONTRACTOR’s program budget. Contract funds shall not be used as security or to guarantee payments for any non-program obligations, or as loans for non-program activities.

6. BUDGET MODIFICATIONS
The City’s CDBG Fiscal Signer may grant budget modifications to this Contract for the movement of funds within the budget categories identified in Exhibit 2, BUDGET SUMMARY, when such modifications:
a. Exceed 15% of the originally approved amount of one or more budget cost categories and does not exceed $10,000 per budget cost category;
b. Are specifically requested by CONTRACTOR;
c. Do not alter the total amount of compensation pursuant to this Contract; d. Will not change the project goals or scope of services; e. Are in the best interests of CITY and CONTRACTOR in performing said services; and, f. Related to salaries, are in accordance with applicable salary ordinances or laws.

7. CHANGES IN GRANT ALLOCATION
CITY reserves the right to reduce the grant allocation when CITY’s fiscal monitoring indicates that CONTRACTOR’s rate of expenditure will result in unspent funds at the end of the program year.

Changes in the grant allocation will be made after consultation with CONTRACTOR. Such changes shall be incorporated into this Contract by written amendments.

8. REVENUE DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENT
By its execution of this Contract, CONTRACTOR certifies that it has previously filed with CITY, a written statement listing all revenue received, or expected to be received, by CONTRACTOR from federal, state, or county sources, or other governmental or private agencies, and applied or expected to offset in whole or in part any of the costs incurred by CONTRACTOR in conducting current or prospective projects or business activities, including, but not necessarily limited to, the project or business activity which is the subject of this Contract. Such statement shall reflect the 163

Page 3 of 14 ends

name and a description of such project or business activity, the dollar amount of funding provided, or to be provided, by each and every agency to each such project or business activity, and the full name and address of each such agency. During the term of this Contract, CONTRACTOR shall prepare and file a similar written statement each time it receives funding from any agency, which is in addition to that revenue disclosed in CONTRACTOR’s initial revenue disclosure statement hereunder. Such statement shall be filed with CITY within 15 calendar days following receipt of such additional funding. CONTRACTOR shall make available for inspection and audit to CITY representatives, upon request, at any time during the duration of this Contract and during a period of five years thereafter, all of its books and records relating to the operation by it of each project or business activity which is funded in whole or in part with governmental monies, whether or not such monies are received through CITY. All such books and records shall be maintained by CONTRACTOR at a location in San Bernardino County. Failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with the requirements of this section of the Contract shall constitute a material breach of Contract upon which CITY may cancel, terminate, or suspend this Contract.

9. JOINT FUNDING
For programs in which there are sources of funds in addition to CDBG funds, CONTRACTOR shall provide proof of such funding. CITY shall not pay for any services provided by CONTRACTOR, which are funded by other sources. All restrictions and/or requirements provided in this Contract relative to accounting, budgeting, and reporting applies to the total program regardless of funding sources.

10. PROGRAM INCOME
Program income represents net income directly generated from the use of CDBG funds by CONTRACTOR as a result of the activity funded under the terms of this Contract. When such income is generated by an activity only partially assisted with CDBG funds, the income shall be prorated to reflect the percentage of CDBG funds used. CONTRACTOR shall retain the use of program income by returning program income to CITY and requesting project budget increases for activities authorized under this Contract. Program income shall be returned to CITY within 30 days after: a) disposition or sale of real or personal property occurs or; b) cumulative program income reaches increments of $1,000; or c) the end of each fiscal year. CONTRACTOR shall include in the reports required by Section 21, PROGRAM REPORTING AND RETENTION OF RECORDS, all sources and amounts of program income on a monthly and year-to-date basis.

Program income returned by CITY to CONTRACTOR shall be spent by CONTRACTOR on only those costs authorized under this Contract. All provisions of this Contract shall apply to said use of program income. CONTRACTOR shall account for the receipt and use of program income in such a way that program income is spent on authorized activities before additional CDBG funds are spent.

Any program income on-hand, when this Contract expires or received after such expiration, shall be paid to CITY.

11. FISCAL LIMITATIONS
While not presently anticipated, HUD may, in the future, place programmatic or fiscal limitation(s) on CITY CDBG funds. Accordingly, CITY reserves the right to revise this Contract in order to take account of actions affecting HUD program funding. In the event of funding reduction, CITY may reduce the budget of this Contract as a whole or as to cost category, may limit the rate of CONTRACTOR’s authority to commit and spend funds, or may restrict CONTRACTOR’s use of both its uncommitted and its unspent funds. Where HUD has directed or requested CITY to implement a reduction in funding, in whole or as to cost category, with respect to funding for this Contract, CDH may act for CITY in implementing and effecting such a reduction and in revising the Contract for such purpose. Where CITY has reasonable grounds to question the fiscal 164

Page 4 of 14 ends

accountability, financial soundness, or compliance with this Contract of CONTRACTOR, CITY may act to suspend the operation of this Contract for up to 60 days upon three days notice to CONTRACTOR of its intention to so act, pending an audit or other resolution of such questions. In no event, however, shall any revision made by CITY affect expenditures and legally binding commitments made by CONTRACTOR before it receives notice of such revision, provided that such amounts have been committed in good faith and are otherwise allowable and that such commitments are consistent with HUD cash withdrawal guidelines.

12. NON-EXPENDABLE PROPERTY
A record shall be maintained for each item of non-expendable property acquired for this program with CDBG funds. This record shall be provided to CITY upon request. Non-expendable property shall include tangible personal property, including but not limited to office equipment, and real property and any interest in such real property, including any mortgage or other encumbrance of real property as well as any funds derived from the sale or disposal of non-expendable property.

Any utilization of funds derived from the sale or disposition of non-expendable property must have prior approval of CITY and otherwise comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Upon termination of this Contract, CITY reserves the right to determine the final disposition of said nonexpendable property acquired for this program with CDBG funds, including funds derived therefrom. Said disposition may include CITY taking possession of and title to said non-expendable property. Non-expendable personal property means tangible personal property having a useful life of more than one year and an acquisition cost of $1,000 or more per unit.

13. EXPENDABLE PERSONAL PROPERTY
Expendable personal property refers to all tangible personal property other than non-expendable personal property. All purchases of expendable personal property with a unit value of $1,000 or more per unit must have the prior written approval of the CDH Director, or their designee.

14. PURCHASE OR LEASE OF NON-EXPENDABLE PROPERTY OR EQUIPMENT CONTRACTOR shall obtain at least three comparable price quotes and receive CDH approval of the item(s) selected prior to purchasing or leasing any non-expendable personal property or equipment over $1,000 in unit value and having a life expectancy of more than one year. Such property shall be properly identified and inventoried and shall be charged at its actual price deducting all cash discounts, rebates, and allowances received by CONTRACTOR. This inventory shall be provided to CITY upon request.

CONTRACTOR shall obtain written approval from CITY prior to selling or disposing of any nonexpendable property or equipment. Any proceeds generated from the sale of such property or equipment shall be subject to the provisions of Section 10, PROGRAM INCOME.

15. ACQUISITION OF SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT
CONTRACTOR may purchase from a related agency/organization only if: (a) prior authorization is obtained in writing from CITY, (b) charges do not exceed the authorized amount and minimum written specifications are met, (c) a community related benefit is derived from such CONTRACTOR related acquisition, and (d) no conflict of interest for private gain accrues to CONTRACTOR or its employees, agents or officers.

CONTRACTOR shall submit documentation of the cost and price analysis required in 24 CFR 84.45 for approval prior to procuring non-expendable property or equipment.

CITY reserves the right to disallow any purchase from any vendor of supplies, equipment, nonexpendable property or expendable property which is purchased in whole or in part with funds provided by this Contract. CONTRACTOR may seek prior approval of CITY for any such 165

Page 5 of 14 ends

expenditures and prior approval, which is granted shall be binding on CITY unless such expenditure violates federal law or regulations or is disallowed by HUD.

16. PURCHASE AND INVOICE DEADLINES
Purchase of equipment or property must be completed before the last three months of the initial performance period and all equipment bills shall be paid before the last two months of this period.

No expendable or non-expendable property or equipment shall be purchased during the final three months of the initial performance period unless approved by CITY in writing.

Exceptions to the preceding limitations require prior written approval by CDH.

17. TRAVEL AND CONFERENCE RESTRICTIONS
CONTRACTOR certifies and agrees that travel and conference expenses for persons other than employees of CONTRACTOR, will not be paid by funds provided through this Contract. No travel expenses for out-of-state travel shall be included in this Contract unless specifically listed in the BUDGET SUMMARY, Exhibit 2, which is attached and incorporated herein. CONTRACTOR further agrees that any travel expense incurred by CONTRACTOR, which is not listed in the BUDGET SUMMARY shall not be paid by funds provided through this Contract unless prior written approval of the CDH Director has been obtained.

18. USE OF FUNDS FOR ENTERTAINMENT, GIFTS, OR FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES CONTRACTOR certifies and agrees that it will not use funds provided through this Contract to pay for entertainment, gifts, or fundraising activities.

19. MONITORING

These reviews will focus on the extent to which the planned program has been implemented and measurable goals achieved, effectiveness of program management, and impact of the program. Authorized representatives of CITY, CDH and HUD shall have the right of access to all activities and facilities operated by CONTRACTOR under this Contract. Facilities include all files, records, and other documents related to the performance of this Contract. Activities include attendance at staff, board of directors, advisory committee and advisory board meetings and observation of on-going program functions. CONTRACTOR will permit on-site inspection by CITY, CDH and HUD representatives, and ensure that its employees and board members furnish such information, as in the judgment of CITY and HUD representatives, may be relevant to the question of compliance with contractual conditions and HUD directives, or the effectiveness, legality, and achievements of the program.

20. BENEFICIARY QUALIFICATION
Persons qualifying for program services on the basis of income, hereinafter referred to as BENEFICIARIES, shall have an annual household gross income equal to or less than the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Income Limits.

Page 6 of 14 ends

adults; persons living with AIDS, and migrant farm workers. CONTRACTOR shall document the household income of all BENEFICIARIES, by obtaining completed copies of the "BENEFICIARY QUALIFICATION STATEMENT", Exhibit 3(a), 2 pages. A Spanish language version of the BENEFICIARY QUALIFICATION STATEMENT, Exhibit 3(b), 2 pages, is attached for convenience, but the CITY cannot guarantee the accuracy of the translation and the CITY cannot be held responsible for any errors. CONTRACTOR shall retain these forms for five (5) years after conclusion of this Contract.

21. PROGRAM REPORTING AND RETENTION OF RECORDS
CONTRACTOR agrees to prepare and submit financial, program progress, and other reports as required by HUD, COUNTY, or CITY directives. CONTRACTOR shall maintain such program, property, personnel, financial, statistical and other records, supporting documents, and accounts as are considered necessary by HUD, COUNTY, or CITY to assure proper accounting for all Contract funds. Said records, documents and accounts are to be retained by CONTRACTOR for a minimum of five (5) years. The retention period starts from the date the CITY submits to CDH for their Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) to HUD, as prescribed in 24 CFR 91.520, in which the service under the terms of this contract is reported on for the final time. Said CITY submission will follow CONTRACTOR’s final submission to CITY of reports identified under this paragraph. Records and accounts subject to litigation or audit must be maintained for five (5) years or until the issue is resolved, whichever is longer. Records that pertain to real estate transactions must be maintained for five (5) years or the number of years there is an outstanding obligation, whichever is longer. The starting date for retention of records on CDBGpurchased equipment begins at the end of the equipment’s use, when it is disposed of or transferred. The retention period for records relating to program income begins on the last date of CITY’s fiscal year in which the income is earned. All CONTRACTOR’s records, with the exception of confidential client information, shall be made available to representatives of CITY, CDH and the appropriate federal agencies. CONTRACTOR is required to submit data necessary to complete the CAPER in accordance with HUD regulations in the format and at the time designated by the CDH Director or his designee. By the 10th day of each month, CONTRACTOR shall submit a completed MONTHLY PROGRAM PROGRESS AND DIRECT BENEFIT REPORT, Exhibit 4, for the month being reported.

23. AUDITS
CONTRACTOR is required to arrange for an independent financial audit performed within the direction of 2 CFR 200. Said audit shall be conducted for the term of this Contract. When CONTRACTOR receives $750,000 or more in federal funds from all federal funding sources within a fiscal year, the required audit must be performed in compliance with 2 CFR 200.

CONTRACTOR shall submit a copy of the audit report to CITY within nine months after the end of the audit period. Within 30 days of the submittal of said audit report, CONTRACTOR shall provide to CITY a written response to any concerns or findings identified in said audit report. The response must examine each concern or finding and explain a proposed resolution, including a schedule for correcting any deficiency. All actions to correct said conditions or findings shall be taken within six months after receipt of the audit report.

CITY, COUNTY, or any state or federal agency, may make additional audits or reviews, as necessary, to carry out the responsibilities of CONTRACTOR under city, county, state or federal laws and regulations. CONTRACTOR agrees to cooperate fully with all persons conducting said 167

Page 7 of 14 ends

additional audits or reviews. CITY and its authorized representatives shall, at all times, have access for the purpose of audit or inspection, to any and all books, documents, papers, records, property, and premises of CONTRACTOR. If indications of misappropriation or misapplication of the funds of this Contract cause CITY to require an additional audit, the cost of the audit will be encumbered and deducted from this Contract budget.

Should CITY subsequently determine that the additional audit was not warranted, the amount encumbered will be restored to the Contract budget. CONTRACTOR shall reimburse all misappropriation or misapplication of funds to CITY. In the event CITY uses the judicial system to recover misappropriated or misapplied funds, CONTRACTOR shall reimburse CITY legal fees and court costs in addition to awards.

24. ASSIGNMENT
This Contract is not assignable by CONTRACTOR without the express written consent of CITY.

Any attempt by CONTRACTOR to assign any performance of the terms of this Contract shall be null and void and shall constitute a material breach of this Contract.

If CONTRACTOR materially fails to comply with any term of this Contract, CITY may take one or more of the actions provided under federal regulation at 24 CFR Part 84.62, Enforcement, which includes temporarily withholding cash, disallowing non-compliant costs, wholly or partly suspending or terminating the award, withholding further awards, and other remedies that are legally available.

In such an event, CONTRACTOR shall be compensated for all services rendered and all necessarily incurred costs performed in good faith in accordance with the terms of this Contract that have been previously reimbursed, to the date of said termination to the extent that CDBG funds are available from HUD.

26. REVERSION OF ASSETS
Upon Contract termination, CONTRACTOR shall transfer to CITY all CDBG funds on hand at the time of expiration and any accounts receivable attributable to the use of CDBG funds.

All real property acquired or improved in whole or in part with CDBG funds under this Contract must continue in the use that provides the service benefits and national objectives for which it was funded, or it must be disposed of in a manner resulting in a reimbursement to CITY in the amount of the current fair market value of the property less any portion thereof attributable to expenditures of non-CDBG funds for the acquisition or improvement of the property.

27. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
All parties hereto in the performance of this Contract will be acting in independent capacities and not as agents, employees, partners, joint venturers, or associates of one another.

169

Page 9 of 14 ends

33. HUD HOLD HARMLESS
CONTRACTOR shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CITY and COUNTY against any liability, claims, losses, demands, and actions incurred by CITY and COUNTY as a result of the determination by HUD or its successor that activities undertaken by CONTRACTOR under the program(s) fail to comply with any laws, regulations or policies applicable thereto or that any funds billed by and disbursed to CONTRACTOR under this Contract were improperly expended.

34. INDEMNIFICATION
CONTRACTOR agrees to indemnify, defend (with counsel reasonably approved by CITY and COUNTY and hold harmless the CITY and COUNTY and its authorized officers, employees, agents and volunteers from any and all claims, actions, losses, damages, and/or liability arising out of this contract from any cause whatsoever, including the acts, errors or omissions of any person and for any costs or expenses incurred by the CITY on account of any claim except where such indemnification is prohibited by law. This indemnification provision shall apply regardless of the existence or degree of fault of indemnitees. CONTRACTOR's indemnification obligation applies to the CITY and COUNTY's "active" as well as "passive" negligence but does not apply to the CITY and COUNTY's "sole negligence" or "willful misconduct" within the meaning of Civil Code Section 2782. This provision shall survive the termination of this Contract.

35. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
CONTRACTOR agrees to provide insurance set forth in accordance with the requirements herein. If CONTRACTOR uses existing coverage to comply with these requirements and that coverage does not meet the specified requirements, CONTRACTOR agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so. The type(s) of insurance required is determined by the scope of the contract services.

Without in anyway affecting the indemnity herein provided and in addition thereto, CONTRACTOR shall secure and maintain throughout the contract term the following types of insurance with limits as shown:

If CONTRACTOR has no employees, it may certify or warrant to the CITY (and COUNTY) that it does not currently have any employees or individuals who are defined as "employees" under the Labor Code and the requirement for Workers' Compensation coverage will be waived by the CITY 's CDBG Administrative Signer, or the COUNTY’s Director of Risk Management on a case-by case basis.

With respect to contractors that are non-profit corporations organized under California or federal law, volunteers for such entities are required to be covered by Workers' Compensation insurance.
- Commercial/General Liability Insurance - CONTRACTOR shall carry General Liability Insurance covering all operations performed by or on behalf of CONTRACTOR providing coverage for bodily injury and property damage with a combined single limit of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000), per occurrence.

If CONTRACTOR is transporting one or more non-employee passengers in performance of contract services, the automobile liability policy shall have a combined single limit of two million dollars ($2,000,000) for bodily injury and property damage per occurrence.

If CONTRACTOR owns no autos, a non-owned auto endorsement to the General Liability policy described above is acceptable.

The coverage shall also apply to automobile liability. - Additional Insured - All policies, except for the Workers' Compensation, Errors and Omissions and Professional Liability policies, shall contain endorsements naming the CITY and COUNTY and their officers, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds with respect to liabilities arising out of the performance of services hereunder. The additional insured endorsements shall not limit the scope of coverage for the CITY and COUNTY to vicarious liability but shall allow coverage for the CITY and COUNTY to the full extent provided by the policy. Such additional insured coverage shall be at least as broad as Additional Insured (Form B) endorsement form ISO, CG 2010.11 85 (form provided by COUNTY’s Risk Management Department through CDH, if requested).
- Waiver of Subrogation Rights - CONTRACTOR shall require the carriers of required coverages to waive all rights of subrogation against the CITY and COUNTY, their officers, employees, agents, volunteers, contractors and subcontractors.

COMMUNITY HEALTH ACTION NETWORK OF THE IE IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $10,000
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the independent contractor agreement with Community Health Action Network in an amount not to exceed $10,000.00 for the services provided.

BACKGROUND:

The Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) promulgates the funds and regulations for the CDBG program. Cities with populations below 50,000 do not receive funding directly from HUD, but instead participate through the County of San Bernardino Department of Community Development and Housing (the “County”). For the City of Adelanto, the City receives its CDBG funds as a “participating city” through the County.

On December 11, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 24-95 authorizing the allocations of CDBG funds to eligible projects for Fiscal Year 2025/2026. As part of this allocation, $45,178.00 of the funds were designated for Community Based Organizations (“CBOs”) for the aid and support of low to moderate income families. Community Health Action Network was selected to provide weekly Housing services to approximately 30 low to moderate income persons monthly in the City of Adelanto.

For the city to be reimbursed for the services provided by the CBOs, the County requires that an Independent Contractor Agreement be executed by the CBO and the City prior to any reimbursements being processed. Entering into the proposed agreements will ensure that the City is compliant with HUD and County requirements and that the services provided remain reimbursable. 186
FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no impact to the current Fiscal Year 2025/2026 budget. The City will receive 100% reimbursement from Federal CDBG funds in the amount of $10,000.00 for Community Health Action Network, for a total amount of $10,000.00.

Subject: Revised Guidelines For the City-Council Use of City-Owned Vehicles The following is City of Adelanto (“City”) Vehicle Use Policy (“Policy”) for elected representatives of the City Council (“Council Members”).

This document sets out the “best practices” and guidelines for the use of City-owned vehicles, it revises and updated the original document adopted on May 16, 2022.

Guidelines for Use of City-Owned Vehicles
Because citizens and taxpayers notice and may criticize the perceived unauthorized and/or improper use of City-owned vehicles, the City Manager’s Office is providing the following guidance that councilmembers should adhere to when utilizing City-owned vehicles

1. City-owned vehicles must be used for the performance of City-related duties, representational meetings and/or events.

2. Prior to using a City vehicle, councilmembers must check in with the City Clerk and complete the Vehicle Use Tracker form.

3. No person other than the authorized councilmember may operate the City vehicle.

4. Non-city passengers, such as the councilmember’s spouse, children and pets, are should not ride in the City vehicle, unless such passengers are involved in the conduct of the City’s business (i.e., attending a City-related event).

5. City vehicles must be driven in compliance with all traffic laws and regulations. 247

6. City vehicles must not be used by councilmembers for the conduct of personal business. “Personal business” includes but is not limited to: entertainment facilities or events, trips for personal pleasure, transporting family members, children, or friends to school, daycare, or other personal activities.

7. City vehicles may be used for travel to approved meals and breaks when the councilmember is on City business outside of City limits and away from his or her official domicile.

8. City vehicles should not be used for travel outside of the City’s jurisdiction, unless specifically authorized by the City.

9. In the interest of cost savings (mileage, gas, etc.), councilmembers may store the car overnight, if they expect to use the vehicle the following day or over a multi-day period. (e.g., use of City vehicle at multi-day conference). Otherwise, City vehicles must be garaged at City headquarters..

10.Liability to others for bodily injury and property damage due to the negligent operation of a City vehicle will generally be covered by the City’s insurance policy, provided that the vehicle was being operated while conducting City business. , Nonehteless, it is highly recommended that councilmembers maintain his or her own personal standard automobile liability insurance policy. The councilmember’s personal insurance policy may insure a councilmember’s loss or damage to personal property and cover instances where the councilmember is found to be liable for bodily injury or damages to the vehicle or other third party if an accident occurs during an unauthorized use of City vehicle.

If you have any questions or need clarification on the City’s Policy, please contact the City Manager’s Office.

The City may provide a gas card to a councilmember to use for a multi-day event(s).

This card will have a fixed dollar limit and will only be recharged (or be used again), if the Councilmember submit the necessary Vehicle Use Tracker form 248
