REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
DATE: APRIL 22, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: NATHAN HAMBURGER, CITY MANAGER
BY: KELLY FISHER, DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
CHARMAINE YAMBAO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR / CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVE AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR THE DRIVER DRAIN STORMWATER IMPROVEMENT PROJECT; NIB 26-01
In 2024, the City received mitigation grant funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the improvement of the inlet structure and pipe on Driver Avenue, just west of Colodny Drive, due to damages sustained during the January 2023 rain/flooding emergency.
On March 13, 2026, the City initiated the bidding process for the Driver Drain Stormwater Improvement Project; NIB 26-01. The project scope includes removing and replacing the existing storm drain inlet on Driver Avenue, east of Colodny Drive, with a higher-capacity structure, as well as upsizing the downstream storm drain pipe to address recurring flooding in the area during heavy rain events. Additionally, portions of the roadway and adjacent equestrian trail will be restored as part of the drainage improvements.
On April 9, 2026, the City received five (5) sealed bids for this project. The bid results were as follows:
Ironwave Builders $221,056.00
Sam Hill & Sons, Inc. $347,359.00
D. John Roser, Inc. $379,359.00
Staples Construction $460,721.15
G2K Construction, Inc. $577,613.00
The lowest apparent bidder was Ironwave Builders. During the review of the bid submittal from the apparent low bidder, Ironwave Builders, staff received a formal request from the contractor, on April 13, 2026, to withdraw its bid.
The contractor stated that, during bid preparation, it inadvertently failed to obtain pricing from a licensed traffic control subcontractor. This omission resulted in a material discrepancy between the submitted bid and the actual cost required to meet the project specifications. Consequently, performing the contract at the bid price would impose significant financial hardship on the contractor. Due to this error, Ironwave Builders is requesting the City relieve them of their bid proposal and bid security.
Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 5103, Ironwave Builders submitted written notice of its request to withdraw within five (5) working days of the bid opening. The request was reviewed and approved by the Director of Public Works.
Given the remaining bids, staff believes that re-bidding the project is unlikely to produce more favorable results.
Staff has reviewed the bid of the apparent 2
nd lowest bidder, Sam Hill & Sons, Inc., and deemed their bid responsive and acceptable. Sam Hill & Sons provided references to similar projects for other public agencies, including the County of Ventura, and all were in good standing. Therefore, staff respectfully recommends that the City Council award the contract to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Sam Hill & Sons, Inc., in the amount of $347,359.
The project is anticipated to begin in June 2026, and is expected to be completed within approximately three (3) months, with no work to be done on weekends or holidays.
FISCAL IMPACT
The construction budget for the project includes $275,000 of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Hazardous Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) Funds, and $50,000 of Measure W (Local) Funds, for a total budget of $325,000.
It should be noted that the HMGP allocation was based on FEMA’s engineer’s estimate at the time the City’s application was reviewed in 2024. In recognition of annual increases in labor and material costs, FEMA permits agencies to request additional funding to cover costs exceeding the original allocation. Staff will be submitting a request to FEMA for additional HMGP funding upon conclusion of the project in order to offset City costs.
To advance the proposed project, staff requests City Council approval to appropriate $144,462 in the proposed FY 2026–27 Budget from the fund balance in Public Works Storm Water Capital Project Fund (Account 016-0000- 2900), based on the following estimates:
Project Costs Estimate
Remaining contract balance $22,359
Contingency (15%) $52,103
Construction Engineering $50,000
Inspection/Material Testing $20,000
Total: $144,462
RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommend the City Council:
1. Award a contract, in the amount of $347,359.00, to Sam Hill & Sons, Inc. for the Driver Drain Stormwater Improvement Project; NIB #26-01; and
2. Authorize the City Engineer to issue necessary change orders within a 15% contingency; and
3. Appropriate $144,462 of Storm Water Capital Project Funds in the proposed FY 2026-27 Budget for the project from Fund Balance of fund 016-0000-2900; and
4. Authorize the Mayor to sign the contract agreement.
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
DATE: APRIL 22, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: NATHAN HAMBURGER, CITY MANAGER
BY: KELLY FISHER, DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
CHARMAINE YAMBAO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR / CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: APPROVE AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR THE LOW FLOW STORM DRAIN DIVERSION PROJECT; NIB 26-03
On December 10, 2025, the City Council authorized staff to seek bids for the Low Flow Storm Drain Diversion Project; NIB 26-03. The scope of work in the base bid included the installation of six (6) precast manhole structures in order to re-direct the urban water from the storm drains to the adjacent public sewer lines during the dry weather season, as well as, the first tenth of an inch of flow from the first storm of the wet-weather season, which can carry pollutants that are harmful to the environment. The sewer systems would then convey the flows to the Tapia Water Reclamation Facility for treatment.
In addition to the base bid, the plans and specifications included four (4) additional locations as bid alternatives, to be considered in the event the bids costs were favorable.
On March 24, 2026, the City received bids from five (5) contractors. One bidder, Shiraz Construction, was deemed nonresponsive for failure to submit a bid bond package with their bid submittal. The base bid results for the four (4) responsive bidders were as follows:
Environmental Construction, Inc. $2,543,820.00
J Vega Engineering, Inc. $2,864,980.00
CEM Construction, Corp. $3,485,075.00
Blois Construction, LLC. $6,545,759.30
Staff reviewed the bid submittal of the apparent low bidder, Environmental Construction, Inc., and deemed their bid responsive and acceptable. In addition, staff contacted references for Environmental Construction, Inc., to discuss past work, as they have never worked in the City. The references were all excellent regarding the contractor’s performance.
During the bid evaluation process, staff reviewed the base bid along with the alternative bid items. While the base bid was determined to be competitive, the submitted costs for the bid alternatives were disproportionately high compared to the base bid. Staff recommends that the bid alternatives be rebid as a separate project in a future fiscal year, which would likely provide more competitive bidding.
The total length of construction is expected to take approximately four (4) months, with no work to be done on holidays. It should be noted the start of construction may be delayed due to the long lead times in procuring the precast diversion manhole structures and equipment.
FISCAL IMPACT
The project budget includes $1,195,134 of Proposition 1, Round 1, Integrated Regional Water Management Funds, $970,503 of Measure W (Regional) Funds, $109,000 of Measure W (Local) Funds, and $970,610 of City Storm Water Capital Project Funds, for a total budget of $3,245,247 to complete this work.
In addition to construction costs, the project budget includes a contingency of $254,382 (10%) and estimated costs for construction support (engineering, inspections, and material testing). Therefore, the current budget will only fund the structures included in the base bid.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommends the City Council:
1. Award the Low Flow Storm Drain Diversion Project; NIB 26-03; to Environmental Construction, Inc., in the amount of $2,543,820;
2. Authorize the City Engineer to issue necessary change orders within a 10% contingency; and
3. Authorize the Mayor to sign the contract agreement.

AMBER VICTORIA, MANAGEMENT ANALYST
SUBJECT: APPROVE AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACTOR SERVICES, WITH MCCI, LLC, FOR LASERFICHE
TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES
The City previously contracted with ECS Imaging, Inc. for Laserfiche technical support and maintenance services.
ECS Imaging, Inc. has since been acquired by MCCi, LLC. As a result of this transition, staff is recommending entering into a new agreement directly with MCCi, LLC to ensure continuity of services.
Laserfiche is a critical document management system used by the City to store, manage, and retrieve digital records. Maintaining reliable support and system performance is essential for daily operations and public access to information.
Consistent with the City’s adopted 2025–2026 Technology Plan, staff has transitioned from on-premises infrastructure to a cloud-hosted Laserfiche solution. This shift will reduce the City’s internal infrastructure burden, improve system reliability, and enhance accessibility.
City staff and MCCi, LLC have reviewed and agreed upon the scope of services, which includes:
Laserfiche PF Cloud Professional Users (5–49) – LSAP
Laserfiche PF Cloud Participant Users (10–199) – LSAP
Laserfiche PF Cloud Weblink Public Portal (1,000 views/month) – LSAP Laserfiche PF Cloud Additional Storage (100GB) – LSAP
In addition, MCCi, LLC will provide Gold Priority Support, which includes:
10 hours of online or on-site support annually
Unlimited phone support
Four-hour response time for most service requests
Support services including Laserfiche technical assistance, system installations, workflow and forms configuration, and integration services
This agreement ensures that the City continues to receive comprehensive support while transitioning to a hosted environment managed by MCCi, LLC.
FISCAL IMPACT
The funding ($23,000) is currently appropriated in Fund 010-4195-552000 (Automated Office Services/Contract Services) for the 2026-27 Fiscal Year.
Should the City Council approve the agreement, MCCi, LLC will continue Laserfiche Technical Support and Maintenance Services on their hosted site for the City.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
DATE: APRIL 22, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: NATHAN HAMBURGER, CITY MANAGER
BY:
CHARMAINE YAMBAO, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR / CITY ENGINEER
AMY BRINK, DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY SERVICES
ROBBY NESOVIC, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 26-485, AMENDING THE AGOURA HILLS MUNICIPAL CODE TO
ESTABLISH ELECTRIC MOBILITY DEVICE REGULATIONS
On April 8, 2026, the City Council waived full reading and introduced Ordinance No. 26-485, which amends Article 3 Public Safety of the Agoura Hills Municipal Code (AHMC) adding Chapter 10, establishing regulation of electric mobility devices and makes a finding of exemption pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The new Chapter 10 will provide regulations prohibiting the use of electric mobility devices on City owned facilities, such as public sidewalks, parks, recreations areas, and trails, and enforcement of the new regulations.
With City Council approval, staff will notify and coordinate with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department of the new regulations. The new regulations will be posted on the City's website, along with a public campaign to educate the community of the new rules and regulations through the City's various social platforms. And staff has started to secure options for in-person workshops and online training for the community to learn how to properly and legally use e-bikes.
The City would begin replacing regulation park signs thirty (30) days after approval of the ordinance. It is anticipated that the electric mobility device regulations would be fully enforceable by May 23, 2026.
Ordinance No. 26-485 is exempt from CEQA pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) on the grounds that it can be seen with certainty that the regulations on the operation of electric mobility devices in public places and off-street parking lots, as provided in this Ordinance, will not have a significant effect on the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City through the adoption of Ordinance No. 26-485. The City Council agreed that the educational workshops and online training should be offered before the end of the 2025-26 Fiscal Year. Staff has identified funds in account 010-4121-5426 for a $5,000 appropriation to assist with the educational training.
Funds for the 2026-27 Fiscal Year would need to be appropriated during the budget workshops. Therefore, a notto-exceed amount of $5,000 was suggested to begin the program.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully recommends the City Council adopt Ordinance No. 26-485 amending the Agoura Hills Municipal Code to establish Electric Mobility Device Regulations and making a finding of exemption pursuant to CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act).

ORDINANCE NO. 26-487
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AGOURA
HILLS, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE AGOURA HILLS MUNICIPAL
CODE TO AMEND REGULATIONS RELATED TO EQUIPMENT IN
RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL ZONES AND USES SUBJECT TO
DIRECTOR'S REVIEW AND APPROVAL IN RESIDENTIAL ZONES AND
MAKING A DETERMINATION OF EXEMPTION UNDER THE
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
WHEREAS, in certain instances the City’s existing regulations pertaining to allowable uses and equipment in residential and commercial zones do not account for current land use practices or the most current and efficient equipment on the market.
WHEREAS, the existence of outdated regulations related to land uses and equipment is a detriment to the property owners, citizens, and businesses within the community, because the City does not allow some desirable, low impact uses and equipment commonly seen in other similarly situated communities, or makes it more challenging for those uses to come into the City.
WHEREAS, it is the desire of the City Council to reduce permitting barriers for local homeowners and businesses in instances where those barriers do not serve the purpose of environmental protection or public health, safety and welfare.
WHEREAS, the proposed ordinance would amend Article IX (Zoning) of the Agoura Hills Municipal Code (AHMC) to clarify specific ground and wall mounted equipment requirements in residential and commercial zones, and uses subject to Director’s review and approval in residential zones.
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on March 5, 2026, at which time it received staff reports, public testimony, and other evidence in the record. Upon close of the hearing, the Commission adopted Resolution No. 26-486 recommending City Council adoption of the Ordinance.
WHEREAS, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on April 8, 2026, at which it received staff reports, public testimony, and other evidence in the record regarding the proposed Ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Agoura Hills, California, hereby ordains as follows:
Section 1. The facts set forth in the recitals of this Ordinance are true and correct.
2 Section 2. Consistency with the General Plan. This Ordinance is consistent with General Plan Goal LU-7 (Livable and Quality Neighborhoods), which calls for neighborhoods that provide a variety of housing types, densities, and design, and a mix of uses and services that support the needs of their residents. The proposed changes to equipment regulations will ensure that high-efficiency equipment, such as tankless water heaters and energy storage systems, are encouraged while requiring adequate sound barriers for noise-generating equipment, consistent with current requirements.
Section 3. Zoning Code Amendment. Section 9132.[1] (Evaluation of design) of Part 4 (General Development Standards) of Chapter 1 (Introduction) of Article IX (Zoning) of the Agoura Hills Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows, with deleted language shown in strikeout and new language shown in underline:
“9132.[1] – Evaluation of design
All development shall satisfy the following design criteria:
A. Exterior materials and colors shall harmonize with and compliment the surrounding natural and man-made environment. Where appropriate, dominant exterior colors shall reflect a natural earthtone theme. More brilliant exterior colors shall not be employed in a manner which detracts from the visual continuity of a structure and its surrounding environs. Exterior treatments characterized by an overly bright, shiny, reflective or artificial appearance shall not be permitted.
B. The architectural expression shall be carried out throughout the project.
C. The landscaping shall compliment the proposed architecture and shall consist of native materials wherever possible.
D. The proposed traffic circulation shall be compatible with the proposed development and not adversely impact the neighborhood in which it is located.

F. Height of structures shall be in relationship to the height of the pad, size and shape of the structure and the proposed setbacks.
G. Except as allowed by Section 9606.1, no equipment in residentially zoned property shall be mounted, affixed or otherwise attached to a pitched roof, including a hip or gable roof, or to an exterior wall of a building, excluding windows. For the purpose of this section, "equipment" shall be defined as being all materials, fittings, devices, appliances and apparatus systems used for heating, air conditioning and ventilation of the residential units, excluding natural or mechanical attic ventilation systems approved by the director of planning and community development. "Equipment" shall also be defined as being all collector tanks, circulators, pump systems and apparatus other than flat-plate collectors used in connection with solar collecting systems.
Equipment may be placed on a flat roof only if the equipment is entirely 3 screened from view from public or private right-of-way by a mansard or parapet roof element and located entirely below the top of such roof elements.
The method of screening shall be architecturally integrated and blend with the building design in terms of material, color, shape and size. If such screening is not possible due to elevation or topographic constraints, the equipment shall be placed on the ground and subject to the provisions of section 9606.1 of this article.”
Section 4. Zoning Code Amendment. Section 9606.1 (Accessory structures and equipment location and type permitted) of Division 6 (Accessory Structures) of Part 1 (In General) of Chapter 6 (Regulatory Provisions) of Article IX (Zoning) of the Agoura Hills Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows, with deleted language shown in strikeout and new language shown in underline:
“9606.1 – Accessory structures and equipment location and type permitted.
The following accessory structures and equipment may project into the required yard subject to the following limitations:
A. Ground mounted equipment such as pool equipment, air conditioners and built-in barbecues, provided that the equipment shall not be located closer than five (5) feet to the side property line and three (3) feet to the rear or street side property line. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Article, no ground mounted equipment shall be allowed within the required front yard setback. All ground mounted equipment established in the permissible portion of the front yard shall be visibly screened from the public right-of-way. Noisegenerating equipment, such as ground mounted pool and air conditioning equipment must be screened by a solid wall or sound insulated fence on all sides, except in cases where the equipment is located next to a dwelling, in which case the equipment must be screened on the three (3) sides not adjacent to the dwelling. Screening requirements for noise generating equipment may be waived if the director determines that typical equipment operation would not exceed exterior noise standards as set forth in Section 9656.2.
B. Rain conductors, spouts, utility service risers, and shutoff valves may project a maximum distance of one (1) foot into any required yard.
C. Awnings or canopies may project a maximum distance of three (3) feet into the required interior side yard and five (5) feet into the required front, rear and street side yard, provided:

4 3. That such awnings or canopies extend only over the windows or doors to be protected, and for not more than one (1) foot on either side thereof.
D. Water heaters, water softeners and gas or electric meters, including service conduits and pipes, enclosed or in the open, may project a maximum distance of two and one-half (2½) feet into a required interior side or rear yard, provided that such structures or equipment are not closer than three (3) feet to any lot line. Wall mounted tankless water heaters may project into a required side, interior, or rear yard, provided that such equipment is not closer than three (3) feet to any lot line. Gas meters, if enclosed or adequately screened from view by a structure permitted in the yard, may project a maximum distance of two and one-half (2½) feet into a required front or corner side yard, provided that such equipment is not closer than three (3) feet to any lot or highway line.
E. Wall and window mounted air conditioners, coolers, and fans may be used in any required yard, provided that such equipment is not closer than three (3) feet to any lot line.

Decks over one (1) foot high shall be regulated by section 9605.6. This provision shall not exclude the use of the steps providing access between areas of different elevation on the same property.
H. Storage sheds, including pre-fabricated units, that are used solely for the lawful and safe storage of personal property and which have less than one hundred twenty (120) square feet of projected roof area, are permissible in side or rear yards only, provided that a minimum unobstructed access of three (3) feet is provided between the shed and the property lines, have no foundation or plumbing or electrical service of any kind and do not exceed seven and one-half (7.5) feet in exterior height as measured from the ground to the top of the roof. Such sheds shall be placed behind any fence in the side yard setback area to minimize their visibility from the sidewalk or public rightof-way. If no fence exists in the side yard setback area, then the shed shall be located so as to minimize the visibility of the shed from the public right-ofway and must be at least fifteen (15) feet behind the front of the building. A maximum of three (3) such sheds shall be allowed on any one lot.
I. Wall and ground mounted energy generation and storage systems, including batteries and generators, may be placed in any side or rear yard, provided that such facilities are not closer than three (3) feet to any lot line. Any proposed generator over five (5) feet in height, placed within a required side yard, and utilizing an internal combustion engine (ICE) must be screened by a solid wall or sound insulating fence on all sides, except in cases where the 5 equipment is located next to a dwelling, in which case the equipment must be screened on the three (3) sides not adjacent to the dwelling, to mitigate noise impacts to adjacent properties.
J. All other ground mounted equipment may be placed in any rear yard, provided such equipment is no closer than five (5) feet to any lot line and would not create a public nuisance pursuant to section 5605 of this code.” Section 5. Zoning Code Amendment. Section 9222.3 (Uses subject to director’s review and approval) of Chapter 2 (Residential Land Use Districts) of Article IX (Zoning) of the Agoura Hills Municipal Code is hereby amended to read as follows, with deleted language shown in strikeout and new language shown in underline:

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This Ordinance is exempt from environmental review pursuant to section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exemption) because it can be seen with certainty that the Ordinance will not have a significant effect on the environment. The Ordinance will make several clarifications to the Zoning Code in regard to equipment to reflect current Planning 7 policies. Additionally, the removal of an allowable use from a residential zoning district has no possibility of having a physical impact on the environment. Further, as a Municipal Code text amendment, there is no possibility that the proposed action may result in a significant effect on the environment, and the proposed revision to the Municipal Code is exempt from further review under CEQA. Individual proposed projects that include wall or ground mounted equipment would be subject to individual CEQA review when necessary.
Section 9. Severability Clause. If any section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause or phrase of this Ordinance or its application to any person or circumstances, is for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases of this Ordinance, or its application to any other person or circumstance. The City Council declares that it would have adopted each section, subsection, subdivision, paragraph, sentence, clause, phrase hereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, paragraphs, sentences, clauses or phrases hereof be declared invalid or unenforceable.
Section 10. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after passage.
Section 11. Certification. The Mayor shall sign and the City Clerk shall certify to the passage and adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same or a summary thereof to be published and posted in the manner required by law. 8 PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED this 22nd day of April, 2026, by the following vote to wit.
