DATE: January 14,2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Jessie Flores, City Manager
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF TWO-YEAR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH RHRC1 FOR

HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AND RELATED SERVICES, WITH A TOTAL NOT TO EXCEED $400,000
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a two-year professional services agreement with RHRC1, for Human Resources Management and related services, with a total not to exceed amount of $400,000 over the two-year agreement, to support the needs of the City of Adelanto.

BACKGROUND:

Since 2023, the City has utilized a consultant to provide Human Resource services. This contract has been beneficial and resulted in significant savings in both salary and potential liability. We now have been advised that the current Senior Payroll/Human Resources Analyst has announced plans to retire this calendar year. In addition, the City recent move to a new liability insurance pool has created a need for property claims and risk management services. In response, staff have assessed the needs of the City and determined that the most cost-effective way to meet these need would be to engage the services of a Human Resources Management consultant.

ERHRC1 is headed by the City’s previous Human Resources Consultant and brings over 40 years of experience working with over 20 California providing human resources management services. The staff’s priority in selecting a provider was to engage a partner with a comprehensive understanding of the HR needs of municipal governments and specifically the need of City of Adelanto.

The requested services are intended to address the unique HR needs of the City, focusing on key areas including:
• Recruitment and Staffing
• Employee Relations and Conflict Resolution
• Compliance and Policy Management
• Payroll Management
• Compensation and Benefits Administration
• Performance Management and Professional Development
• Human Resources Data and Reporting
• Labor Relations
• Health, Safety and Wellness Programs
52 • Property Claims Management
• Miscellaneous Human Resources Functions
At this time staff believes that maintaining the current working relationship with the consultant, City management and City employees in a cost effective manner, combined with the proven track record with municipalities and other local government entities, is the best way to address the City of Adelanto's Human Resource and related services requirements.

Other Matters
Our engagement cannot be relied upon to detect or disclose errors, fraud, or illegal acts that may exist.

However, if we become aware of such matters, we will bring them to your attention.

It is our policy to keep records related to this engagement for a minimum of seven years after the completion of the engagement.

Other Relevant Information
During the course of the engagement, we may recommend a purchase or installation of computer or technological hardware, software, communications, or services by your organization. Warranties, to the extent they exist, are provided only by the manufacturer/developer/vendor of those computer or software products. We will do our best to provide appropriate recommendations when available, but the final decision and responsibility to purchase any computer or software products is at your sole discretion.

We have a basic understanding of computer hardware, but our area of expertise is in accounting software and related integrated applications. We do not have the skill set to work on your network, computer hardware, Windows configuration, mapping of drives or any other computer related issues. We advise that you maintain an ongoing relationship with a qualified IT professional and/or company to ensure that you have assistance available when technology needs arise. This includes your obligation to ensure that you have access to the internet in order to work with the software solutions and other “cloud-based” applications that we will use as a core part of the services we provide to you.

Your financial investment in your ongoing services with us, as well as the scope of our services with you is outlined above and in the Appendices of this agreement. In order to ensure that we are providing you with seamless access to the services and expertise you need from us, your investment has been conveniently structured based on the scope and timing of the services being provided, this includes a monthly fee for certain ongoing services, periodic fees for services performed not performed monthly, and out of scope services, as needed. If the volume or complexity of the services you request, or other matters change relating to the services we are providing to you, we will communicate any related changes in our fees to you.

We want to ensure that you are never surprised by the fee for any service we provide. Therefore, we have adopted a “Service Order” Policy. If you request that we provide services beyond those outlined in this agreement we will be happy to provide you with a “Service Order” outlining the scope of that request, our fees, and anticipated timeline for those services. Although we strive to meet your needs, we reserve the right to decline a request for additional services that are outside the scope of services we provide, our expertise, or for any other reason. Any such requests will be considered addendums to this agreement.

In the event that we are required to respond to a subpoena, court order or other legal process for the production of documents and/or testimony relative to information we obtained and/or prepared during the course of this engagement, you agree to compensate us at our standard hourly rates at the time the services are performed.

We will request a retainer payment in advance of the services being performed, as well as ongoing replenishments of the retainer. You also agree to reimburse us for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in that regard.

We may from time to time, and depending on the circumstances and nature of the services we are providing, share your confidential information with third-party service providers, some of whom may be cloud-based, but we remain committed to maintaining the confidentiality and security of your information. Accordingly, we maintain internal policies, procedures and safeguards to protect the confidentiality of your personal information.

In addition, we will secure confidentiality agreements with all service providers to maintain the confidentiality of your information and will take reasonable precautions to determine that they have appropriate procedures in place to prevent the unauthorized release of your confidential information to others. In the event that we are unable to secure an appropriate confidentiality agreement, you will be asked to provide your consent prior to the sharing of your confidential information with the third-party service provider. Although we will use our best efforts to make the sharing of your information to such third parties secure from unauthorized access, no completely secure system for electronic data transfer has yet been devised. As such, by your signature below, you understand that the firm makes no warranty, expressed or implied, on the security of electronic data transfers. 87 December 26, 2025

We take reasonable measures to secure your confidential information in our email transmissions and other confidential documents. However, as emails can be intercepted and read, disclosed, or otherwise used or communicated by an unintended third party, or may not be delivered to each of the parties to whom they are directed and only to such parties, we cannot guarantee or warrant that emails from us will be properly delivered and read only by the addressee. Therefore, we specifically disclaim and waive any liability or responsibility whatsoever for interception or unintentional disclosure or communication of email transmissions, or for the unauthorized use or failed delivery of emails transmitted by us in connection with the performance of this engagement. In that regard, you agree that we shall have no liability for any loss or damage to any person or entity resulting from the use of email transmissions, including any consequential, incidental, direct, indirect, or special damages, such as loss of sales or anticipated profits, or disclosure or communication of confidential or proprietary information.

However, Price Paige & Company does not keep any original client records, so we will return those to you at the completion of the services rendered under this engagement.

By your signature below, you acknowledge and agree that upon the expiration of the seven-year period, Price Paige & Company shall be free to destroy our records related to this engagement.

If any dispute arises among the parties hereto, the parties agree to first try in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules for resolving professional accounting and related services disputes before resorting to litigation. The costs of any mediation proceeding shall be shared equally by all parties.

Client and accountant both agree that any dispute over fees charged by the accountant to the client will be submitted for resolution by arbitration in accordance with the applicable rules for resolving professional accounting and related services disputes of the American Arbitration Association except that under all circumstances the arbitrator must follow the laws of California. Such arbitration shall be binding and final. IN

AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, WE BOTH ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE OVER

FEES CHARGED BY THE ACCOUNTANT, EACH OF US IS GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO HAVE THE DISPUTE

DECIDED IN A COURT OF LAW BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND INSTEAD WE ARE ACCEPTING THE USE OF ARBITRATION FOR RESOLUTION. The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the arbitration of the dispute in an amount to be determined by the arbitrator.

This letter sets forth the entire agreement relating to our work with you. This letter supersedes any prior agreements, discussions or understandings. No amendment or modification of this agreement shall be valid unless in writing, signed by both parties to this agreement. As indicated earlier in this agreement, you may request that we perform additional services at a future date beyond the scope of this engagement letter. If this occurs, we will communicate with you regarding the scope and estimated cost of these additional services.

Engagements for additional services will necessitate that we issue a Service Order as an addendum to this agreement, or in a separate engagement letter to reflect the obligations of both parties.

We appreciate the opportunity to be of service to you and believe this letter accurately summarizes the significant terms of our engagement. If you have any questions, please let us know. If the foregoing is acceptable to you, please sign the original copy of this letter in the space provided and return it to us at your earliest convenience.

2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a01/07/26 -4-
extent of delay, and extend the time for performing the Services for the period of the enforced delay when and if in the sole judgment of the Contract Administrator such delay is justified.

Such suspension shall be without liability to Contractor on the part of City. In the event a suspension of work is ordered because of failure on the part of Contractor to carry out orders given or to perform any provisions of the Services, such suspension of the Services shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility to complete the Services within the time limit set forth herein and shall not be considered cause for extension of the time for completion and, further, such suspension of the Services shall not entitle Contractor to any additional compensation.

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.

2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a01/07/26 -17-
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.

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 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. 123

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 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.

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 124
2512/026150-0001
19521958.1 a01/07/26 -19-
than to the subcontractors noted in the Scope of Services, without prior written approval of the Contract Administrator.

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:

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 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.

DISCUSSION:

On October 1, 2025, a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a design service was released and made publicly available on the electronic plan room and City’s website. On December 2, 2025, six (6) proposals were received from the following firms:

No. Firm Location
1 Bowman Brea
2 Huitt-Zollars, Inc. Ontario
3 Onward Engineering Anaheim
4 TKE Engineering, Inc. Riverside
5 Valued Engineering, Inc. Upland
6 Westland Group, Inc. Hesperia
The proposals were reviewed by a panel of staff members using the City’s standards and interviews were conducted. It was determined that the proposal submitted by Onward Engineering met the City requirements. Onward Engineering has an extensive experience and successfully completed similar projects for numerous cities Statewide. The staff determined that Onward Engineering demonstrated the capability to provide design services for Auburn Avenue Project.

There is no impact on General Fund as this project is funded by Gas Tax.

Attn: Brenda Lopez
11600 Air Expressway, Adelanto, CA 92301
Subject: Auburn Avenue Street Design Services
Onward Engineering is pleased to submit our proposal for the Auburn Avenue Street Design project. We approached this effort with careful attention and a strong desire to partner with the City. Before preparing our scope, our team drove and walked the corridor from US 395 to Koala Road, studied drainage patterns and natural flow paths, and evaluated existing development. We did this because delivering the right design for Adelanto requires first understanding it in the field.

Your project needs a consultant who will think ahead, remove uncertainty, and give the City a design that is clear, buildable, and respectful of both cost and constructability. Our team is structured to meet that expectation. Project Manager Justin Smeets, PE, PLS, QSD, has substantial experience leading corridor designs, roadway widenings, and City-to-Caltrans coordination. Lead Project Engineer Ryan Dennis, P.ENG., brings municipal roadway experience honed through his work on arterial, intersection, and access improvements. QA/QC Manager Joe Dyer, PE, TE, provides senior oversight as both a Civil and Traffic Engineer.

In addition to our world class team and commitment to the City, we bring two advantages that set us apart. First, our in-house survey team, which gives us full control over response time, data accuracy, and field verification. We can mobilize quickly and adapt instantly if the City requires additional topographic confirmation. Second, our ClickUp project management system, which provides real time transparency for your staff. Every task, deadline, comment, meeting note, and deliverable is organized and visible so the City always knows the status of the project and what is coming next.

Throughout this proposal, you will see that we took the time to anticipate design challenges, identify drainage and grading constraints, and structure optional services. We made these distinctions so the City has full clarity and flexibility when determining the most responsible direction for the corridor.

If the City wants a partner who will put Adelanto first, communicate clearly, plan proactively, and deliver a design package that reflects the gold standard in municipal roadway engineering, Onward Engineering is that partner. We would be honored to support Adelanto on this important project and are ready to begin immediately.

Thank you,

Koala Road
Auburn Avenue
Site Evaluation
A review of available documentation and a detailed visual inspection of the site will be undertaken.

The inspection will include visual observations, photographs, and field measurements (i.e. design conflict, dimensions, etc.). All findings of the site evaluation will be geo-referenced on aerial photographs in a GIS map. Each design conflict will have dimensions, street level photographs, or any other pertinent information linked to the map. If requested, OE will provide the City with a link to the site evaluation data, which will also be transferred to the construction plan sheets. project Approach

3. Approach to the Scope of Work
Onward Engineering submits this proposal to design the Auburn Avenue improvements from US 395 to Koala Road, including surveying, drainage, grading, WQMP, SWPPP, and full PS&E development. Our team is prepared to deliver a clear, efficient, and constructible design aligned with the City’s goals.

2. Executive Summary
160
Drone Mapping
The site assessment will be enhanced with the collection of high-resolution aerial photographs of the streets using our drone. Our team has four remote pilots licensed by the FAA to fly drones for commercial use. The aerial photographs assist us in developing the base maps and plans by accurately recording site surface features, pavement conditions, and street striping configurations, as well as providing us with highly detailed reference data that cannot be achieved through traditional site evaluation methods. Additionally, the images collected are at a higher resolution than images provided by other sources and are ideal for use in the preparation of exhibits. The image below, collected for a previous project, demonstrates the level of detailed information that can be collected using drone technology. The aerial photos collected are merged into a composite image in post-processing to create complete street segments with very high levels of detail.

Pavement
New pavement will be constructed between Koala Drive and Larkspur Road. Due to the potential for future thermal cracking in the region, a pavement capable of handling freeze/thaw conditions will be specified, such as PG 64-28PM. The existing pavement between Larkspur Road and US 395 is in poor condition. Typically, it is recommended that pavement in this condition be milled and overlayed or reconstructed.

Determination of the final street cross sections, pavement structural sections, and construction methods used will be based on the following data sources:
• Site evaluation findings • Geotechnical investigation results and recommendations • Cost-Benefit Analysis • Discussions with the City
In addition to traditional construction methods OE can assess the potential benefits of incorporating alternative pavement treatments into the design at the City’s request. The cost of incorporating these treatments varies; however, they typically result in upfront cost savings in labor and material costs or long-term savings by providing a street with service life comparable to one that has been reconstructed at a reduced price. The following is a brief description of some of the methods that could be considered.

Fiber Reinforced Asphalt
Fiber additives can be incorporated into full depth pavement layers, overlays, and slurry seals to improve the tensile strength, crack resistance, and service life of the pavement. Fiber reinforced asphalt has been utilized on projects by a growing number of Cities throughout Southern California. Cost savings can be realized by extending the pavement life and by reducing the required pavement thicknesses, as compared to conventional asphalt mixes.

Asphalt Rubber Cape Seal (ARCS)
Asphalt rubber cape seal can be utilized in lieu of conventional cape seal or grind and overlay in some cases. While conventional cape seals can last 6 to 8 years on streets with 1/8” to 1/4” SECTION 3: Approach to the Scope of Work

Auburn Avenue Street Design Services Project

alligator cracks, ARCS can increase the pavement service life up to 15 years on roads with 3/8” to 1/2” alligator cracks. Additionally, ARCS is approximately 3-4 times less expensive than a 2” overlay.

Street Shoulders
The edges of the street pavement will be finished with reinforced shoulders. The shoulders can be constructed with compacted soil or gravel, or by extending the limits of the pavement.

Paving a street next to native soil can result in the edges of the pavement cracking and breaking.

Installing redwood headers along the sides of the pavement allows for better compaction of the base material, maintains a clean edge line, and reduces the risk of edge cracking.

Storm Runoff Management
The undeveloped parcels adjacent to Auburn Avenue
are relatively flat. Storm runoff is currently managed
via overland drainage and infiltration into undeveloped areas. The preliminary site evaluation did not identify any underground culverts or ditches to control the
migration of the runoff, except for a drainage ditch at the east end of the site that runs parallel to U.S. Route 395. A hydraulic analysis will be conducted to determine if the addition of the impervious pavement surface will have a significant impact to surface runoff in the area.

OE will discuss the results with the City to determine
the appropriate measures to manage the additional
runoff which may include one or more of the following
options:
• Construction of infiltration wells.
• Re-grading of site to divert runoff to undeveloped parcels for surface infiltration.

Joshua Trees
Joshua trees are present throughout the site and in close proximity to the existing edge of the street. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) does not enforce a fixed setback distance, but recommends avoiding direct disturbance to tree trunks and root systems (typically
within a 10-to-15-foot radius of the base for mature trees.

It is recommended that a Joshua Tree Census Report be
prepared that documents the locations of the trees within the project limits and an Incidental Take Permit be applied for where impacts are unavoidable. This proposal assumes that the City’s environmental consultant will handle all tasks and permitting related to this issue.

Curb Ramps
Three existing curb ramps observed at the Larkspur
Road and Del Mano Court intersections were not
ADA compliant. Up to 3 ramps will be redesigned
at these locations as 3-dimensional surfaces in
Civil 3D to ensure that the ADA slope and
dimension requirements are adhered to. Custom
curb ramp details prepared for the construction
plans will include horizontal geometrics and
design elevations.

If a ramp cannot be designed to achieve complete ADA compliance due to limiting site factors such as intersecting street and sidewalk grades, the ramp will be designed to be as compliant as possible, and a Curb Ramp Memo signed by a Professional Engineer would be prepared.

Driveways
No developments with driveways intersecting Auburn Avenue were noted within the areas of new street construction. Existing driveways in disrepair between Larkspur Road and Bellflower Street will be denoted on the plans for reconstruction with reference to an SPPWC standard detail.

During construction Terraphase characterized soils, managed soil movement, and tracked soil disposal for approximately 440,000 CY of cut and 300,000 CY of fill.

Terraphase engineers were monitoring the groundwater treatment system and preparing quarterly NPDES reports while our operators were providing routine and emergency system O&M services.

Our geologists were monitoring groundwater and providing on-call environmental services. When the P3 team encountered unanticipated contamination, our team of engineers, geologists, and field operators expeditiously and successfully executed three remedial excavations.

In addition, Terraphase evaluated the overburden and spoils generated during the cement deep soil mixing (CDSM) process, which provides subsurface stability for beneficial reuse on the project. The characterization could potentially allow for significant reductions in disposal costs and minimize air emissions that would be incurred with CDSM spoil disposal and clean fill import.

The Presidio Parkway was completed in 2015 and is the regional gateway through the Presidio and Golden Gate National Recreational Area. Following construction of the roadway,

SURFSIDE ACADEMY, OCEANSIDE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT, OCEANSIDE CLed geotechnical investigation for the reconstruction project including demolition, new construction, and utility upgrades. Oversaw subsurface exploration of sixteen borings (up to 50 ft), lab testing, data analysis, and preparation of engineering recommendations.
