STAFF REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
DATE: Regular Meeting of April 28, 2026
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
SUBMITTED BY: Jason Bonilla, Operations Supervisor Facilities APPROVED BY: Scott Buenting, Public Works Director/City Engineer f/3 SUBJECT: Award of Agreement to Hunt and Sons, Inc. Pursuant to Antioch Municipal Code 3-14.12(C) for the Purchase and Delivery of Unleaded and Diesel Fuel Utilizing Sacramento Area Council of Governments Joint Fuel Procurement Sub-Agreement in the Amount of $2,400,000

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution dispensing with the formal bidding procedure pursuant to Antioch Municipal Code 3-14.12(C) and awarding a joint fuel procurement Sub-Agreement to Hunt and Sons, Inc. for the purchase and delivery of unleaded and diesel fuel for City operations, utilizing a cooperative Joint Purchasing Agreement with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, for the term beginning July 1, 2026 and ending August 31, 2027 in an amount not to exceed $800,000 with option to extend in the amount of $800,000 for each additional year for a total three (3) year agreement in the amount not to exceed $2,400,000 and authorizing the City Manager or designee to execute the agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Fiscal Year 2026/27 Operating Budget has allocated $800,000 awaiting Council approval when the Operating Budget is brought to Council in June 2026 for the purchase and delivery of unleaded and diesel fuel. The City's various departments will be charged to each department's respective fleet and equipment fuel usage accounts.

Fuel costs associated with emergency generators are allocated to and charged against the appropriate facility maintenance operating budgets. The proposed sub-agreement utilizes a cooperative purchasing method through the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, which allows the City to leverage pre-negotiated bulk pricing and terms.

Fuel pricing is based on the daily Oil Price Information Service West Coast Spot Market Report for the San Francisco Area with an allowance for Hunt and Sons, Inc. delivery point differential as described in Exhibit "1" of Attachment "A" of this report. Funding for years beyond the initial budget year is contingent on the city council formally appropriating funds in the future.

Agenda Item #
Antioch City Council Report
April 28, 2026, Agenda Item I

DISCUSSION
2 The City requires a reliable and cost-effective source for the purchase and delivery of unleaded and renewable diesel fuel to support the daily operations of its municipal fleet and equipment. These fuels are essential for the continued operation of public safety vehicles, public works vehicles and equipment, parks maintenance vehicles, and other City-owned assets, such as emergency backup power generators at City facilities.

Staff recommends awarding a joint fuel procurement Sub-Agreement to Hunt and Sons, Inc. for the purchase and delivery of unleaded and diesel fuel for City operations, utilizing a cooperative Joint Purchasing Agreement with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments ("SACOG"). SACOG conducted a formal solicitation process for fuel supply services and awarded a contract to Hunt and Sons, Inc., which includes competitive pricing and terms available to participating local agencies.

Staff has consulted with the City Attorney's office and confirmed that pursuant to the Antioch Municipal Code § 3-4.12(C), the City is permitted to dispense with bidding when using a cooperative purchasing program from another public agency that used competitive procedures substantially similar to the City's. The SACOG agreement meets this standard, and Section 1.3 of their agreement invites other California agencies to participate by signing the Sub-Agreement.

The City of Antioch currently utilizes Hunt and Sons, Inc. for the purchase of its required fuel purchases and delivery services. Hunt and Sons, Inc. has proven to be a reliable fuel delivery partner and are qualified to provide the specific fuel supply and delivery needs of the City. Staff recommends awarding this Joint Fuel Procurement Sub­ Agreement to Hunt and Sons, Inc. utilizing SACOG's cooperative Joint Purchasing Agreement.

The amount of th is cost will be presented separately upon confirmation of the final annual budget from the JPA Board. The amount is expected to be nominal because the cost of 5 Agenda Item #

administering the CFD--the primary function of the JPA--will be paid for out of special taxes collected by the CFO.

Participation may also generate revenue for the City when staff carry out responsibilities such as Off-Site GSI verification or buyer approvals, as jurisdictions receive payment for performing these duties (Attachment B - Contra Costa County RAC System Overview, pp. 13-14, 27). There is no fiscal obligation for Off-Site GSI maintenance associated with private development projects, because CFO special taxes cover these costs. Public agency buyers fund O&M directly through agreements with the JPA (Attachment C - Fact Sheet, p. 1; Attachment B - Contra Costa County RAC System Overview, pp. 16, 22).

At this time, staff anticipates that JPA membership costs can be absorbed within the City's existing stormwater program budget. If adjustments or supplemental appropriations become necessary, staff will return to the Council with recommendations.

DISCUSSION
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Contra Costa Clean Water Program ("CCCWP") was established in 1991 by Contra Costa municipalities in anticipation of municipal stormwater permitting requirements under the federal Clean Water Act and California water quality laws, with encouragement from regional water regulators. CCCWP is a collaborative program composed of 19 Contra Costa cities and towns, the unincorporated Contra Costa County, and the Flood Control and Water Conservation District, whose main objective is to jointly implement National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") stormwater permit requirements. Some permit provisions are most cost-effective to implement on a regional basis, such as water quality monitoring, public education, and special studies.

The Contra Costa County Regional Alternative Compliance (RAC) System is an innovative, regionally supported approach to fulfilling state-mandated stormwater treatment obligations. Developed through a partnership between CCCWP, the U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA"), and the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board ("San Francisco Bay Water Board"), the RAC System provides an off-site, alternate compliance mechanism for the GSI that would normally be required on­ site. The RAC System allows both public agencies and private developers to purchase "compliance units" generated by certified Off-Site GSI projects constructed elsewhere in the county. These units represent an equivalent amount of stormwater treatment required for regulatory compliance.

The RAC System addresses long-standing challenges: constrained development sites, high costs of distributed GSI projects, and the need to target legacy pollutant areas.

Participation in the RAC System is enabled through a new JPA, which provides administrative support, financial mechanisms, and the governance structure necessary to manage Off-Site GSI projects and maintain ongoing compliance. Importantly, the JPA would enable the participating agencies to levy a special tax under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982, as amended ("Mello-Roos Act") on private properties that voluntarily choose to participate in the RAC System (Participating Properties) to fund maintenance of the Off-Site GSI projects.

Pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act, in order for the JPA to form a CFO that may include Participating Properties in the City ( either at the time of CFO formation or by annexation to the CFO) and levy special taxes to finance maintenance of Off-Site GSI projects, the Antioch City Council Report
April 28, 2026, Agenda Item 5 3
JPA and the City must enter into a joint community facilities agreement or joint exercise of powers agreement.

BACKGROUND:

The Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit ("MRP") imposes several obligations on local governments. Under Provision C.3.d, regulated new development and redevelopment projects must incorporate on-site Low Impact Development ("LID") or GSI to treat stormwater before it reaches local waterways. Many sites-particularly small infill properties, parcels with steep slopes, or locations with underground utility conflicts-face serious constraints that make on-site treatment difficult or infeasible (refer to Attachment 2, CCC RAC System Overview, pp. 3-4).

In addition, under MRP Provision C.3.j, municipalities must retrofit a quantifiable amount of existing impervious surface with GSI over the permit term. This requirement can be costly and resource-intensive when implemented through numerous small, distributed projects (refer to Attachment 2, CCC RAC System Overview, p. 3). Moreover, cities must comply with pollutant load reduction targets under the polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs") total maximum daily load ("TMDL") (Provision C.12.c), which require locating stormwater treatment facilities in areas with historically high pollutant loads.

To address these challenges, Contra Costa County, the Cities of San Pablo and Walnut Creek, and the County Flood Control District partnered with the EPA to pilot the RAC System (refer to Attachment 3, Fact Sheet, p. 1 ). Existing rules and guidance authorizing alternative compliance pathways legally support the RAC System. The San Francisco Bay Water Board reviewed and approved the RAC System under MRP Provision C.3.e, the section explicitly devoted to alternative compliance (refer to Attachment 2, CCC RAC System Overview, p. 8).

To effectively manage the RAC System, participating agencies are forming a JPA. The JPA is responsible for administering Off-Site GSI certification, compliance unit accounting, project verification, long-term maintenance funding mechanisms, and annual reporting to the Water Board (refer to Attachment 4, Draft JPA Term Sheet, Sections 6 & 11 ).

ANALYSIS:

How the RAC System Works
The RAC System creates a countywide marketplace in which Off-Site GSI projects­ facilities intentionally constructed to treat stormwater from areas beyond their immediate footprint-generate standardized "compliance units." These units are quantified based on the drainage area treated, pollutant removal performance, rainfall zone, and land use characteristics (CCC RAC System Overview, pp. 33-38).

Once certified by the local jurisdiction where they are located, Off-Site GSI projects can make their compliance units available for purchase. Public agencies or private developers who cannot feasibly meet on-site stormwater retention requirements may instead purchase sufficient units to meet their MRP obligations (Fact Sheet, p. 1 ). The purchaser also pays for maintenance of the Off-Site GSI projects to ensure the long-term performance of the Off-Site GSI project.

JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT
Between Participating Cities, Contra Costa County, and the Contra Costa Flood Control and Water Conservation District to Establish the Contra Costa County Regional Alternative Compliance Joint Powers Authority for
Implementation of the Contra Costa County Regional Alternative Compliance System This Joint Powers Agreement (“A greement”) dated July 1, 2026, is made and entered into pursuant to the provisions of Title 1, Division 7, Chapter 5, Article 1 (Section 6500 et seq.) of the California Government Code relating to the joint exercise of powers among [INSERT FINAL LIST OF PARTICIPATING AGENCIES] (collectively, “Member Agencies” and each, individually, a “Member Agency”). The term “Member Agencies” shall also include a public agency added to this Agreement in accordance with Section 14.

RECITALS
A. T
he joint powers authority (“JPA”) formed pursuant to this Agreement to administer the Contra Costa County Regional Alternative Compliance (“RAC”) System is authorized to (i) establish a community facilities district pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (“Mello-Roos Act”) in order to finance on-going maintenance costs for “Off-Site GSI Projects” constructed pursuant to the RAC System, and (ii) take other actions in furtherance of the RAC System.

B. The RAC System is a program designed to offer a flexible, cost-effective, and scientifically defensible compliance option for the Municipal Regional Permit’s development provisions requiring post-construction stormwater treatment. The Municipal Regional Permit is a Municipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") Permit issued by the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board, Permit No. CAS612008.

C. The RAC System allows the owners of regulated developments and certain public agencies (buyers) to purchase “compliance units” in green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) treatment facilities or “Off-Site GSI Projects” constructed elsewhere within the County.

D. The developers of the Off-Site GSI Projects, which may be public agencies or private entities, generate the “compliance units” that can be exchanged through the RAC System and purchased by the buyers (owners of the regulated developments and public agencies that cannot treat stormwater on their own sites). Private buyers will contribute to the cost of operating and maintaining the Off-Site GSI Projects by annexing their development sites into the proposed community facilities district formed by the JPA. Public agencies that are buyers will pay fees directly to the JPA as an alternative funding mechanism because such public agencies cannot be levied a special tax under the proposed community facilities district.

Contra Costa County Regional Alternative
Compliance System Overview
ATTACHMENT "B"
Introduction
What Are the Challenges with the Existing System?
• The Municipal Regional
Stormwater Permit (MRP)
Provision C.3 requires low
impact development
(LID)/green stormwater
infrastructure (GSI) to be
implemented:
– On new development and
redevelopment projects
– To retrofit a proportion of
permittee impervious surfaces
(C.3.j)

What Are the Challenges with the Existing System?
Challenges:
• Some re/development sites
have physical or site use
constraints to implement GSI
• Distributed GSI is costly and
requires considerable effort to
maintain
• Legacy pollution is
concentrated in certain areas
of Contra Costa County

How can Regional Alternative Compliance (RAC)
address these challenges?
• The RAC System allows an off-site option for new and
redevelopment projects to meet MRP C.3 requirements
– Other regulated stormwater dischargers may also participate (e.g.

Caltrans, Phase II permittees, etc.)
• The RAC System allows for investment in regional GSI projects that:
– Are cheaper to implement and maintain per acre treated – Can be located to target legacy pollution in the County – Could provide additional multiple benefits
AND
• The RAC System establishes designated O&M funding to
ensure long-term performance of facilities

RAC System
Development
Process

What is the Legal Basis for Alternative Compliance?
• Alternative compliance systems
are legally enabled through
existing rules, guidance, and plans
• Contra Costa County (CCC) RAC
System was developed in input
from:
– CCC Permittees
– Advisory Committee made from nine
SF Bay Area Counties + Caltrans +
Port of Oakland
– Water Quality Control Board and
EPA
– Internal and external Legal
Reviewers

Regional Water Board
• The Water Board has approved
the Contra Costa County RAC
System under the current MRP
Provision C.3.e “alternative
compliance”
• RAC System reporting will be
delivered to Water Board at a
specified frequency each permit
term

Equivalent Acres Greened Cost Basis: Capital Cost
• How much do we expect compliance units to cost?

Equivalent Acres Greened Cost Basis: Capital Cost
• How much do we expect Equivalent Acres Greened
compliance units to cost? Based on a cost study, not including administrative fees, for
non-infiltrating facilities:
– Regional Off-Site GSI Projects - estimated $120,000 per compliance unit
– Regional Off-Site GSI Projects (for drainage area less than 100 acres):
$235,000 per compliance unit
– Green Street/LID Off-Site GSI Projects - estimated $460,000 - $500,000+ per compliance unit
• A cost study will determine the administrative fees
– These are expected to be $2,000 - $6,000 per project and may vary by jurisdiction. These are preliminary estimates that need to be verified.

Equivalent Acres Greened Cost Basis: Ongoing
O&M Fee
• The Rate & Method Apportionment (RMA) would determine the ongoing O&M fee amount.
• Based on the estimated O&M cost for the units purchased • O&M costs would be collected via property taxes process for private properties
• O&M costs would be collected by agreement for permittees

Process
Off-Site GSI Project
Verification &
Buyer Approval

Off-Site Project Certification/Verification
• Off-Site GSI Project design and
installation must be “certified”
through inspection by local
jurisdiction using current certification
practices
• Off-Site GSI Projects generate
compliance units based on the area
treated by the Off-Site GSI Project
– Must be “GSI” per the MRP (infiltration,
capture and use, or bioretention)
– Must meet MRP Provision C.3.d (i.e.,
80% capture)

Off-Site Project Certification/Verification
• Off-Site GSI Project must
undergo ongoing recurring
verification to confirm it is
performing as expected over time
– Local jurisdiction would perform
verification using current
verification practices
– Local jurisdiction would receive
payment for these actions

Buyer Project Approval
• Developers/C.3 Regulated Projects
that want to purchase compliance
units will need to get approval from
the relevant jurisdiction
– This will be done through the
development approval process
• Developers can use the system to
address compliance for small
portions of a C.3 regulated project

RAC System
Implementation
Process
Ongoing O&M

Community Facilities District
• A RAC JPA will adopt a CFD
– Resolution of Intention
– Public Hearing Process
• Election: Each property that will use the RAC System for compliance will be required to “elect” to be part of the CFD • Special tax is levied by ordinance adoption by the relevant legislative body

Community Facilities District
• Roles and responsibilities for O&M
– Off-Site facilities will be required to maintain their facility in accordance with the Site’s O&M Agreement
– Off-Site facilities will be inspected to verify O&M compliance • Funding
– Once a facility is confirmed to meet their O&M requirement the Off- Site facility will submit O&M certification to RAC System – The O&M payment will be issued to the Off-Site facility

RAC System
Implementation
Process
Compliance Unit
Calculation

Compliance Unit Generation
• “Equivalent Acres Greened” compliance units
– Calculated based on pollutant generating area
• 100% impervious + 10% pervious area
– Rainfall zone and land use associated with each unit
• For MRP C.3 Regulated Projects:
– To meet “equivalency” and “Net Environmental Benefit” requirements of Provision C.3.e., there are three additional factors used to calculate total “Equivalent Acres Greened”

1. Rainfall Ratio

2. Pollutant Ratio

3. Net Environmental Benefit (NEB) Ratio
– These factors not required for permittee C.3.j retrofit compliance units

Compliance Unit Generation: Rainfall Zone
• Used PRISM data to map the County’s Rainfall Zones
• Maps and tables were developed to represent the Rainfall Zones and calculate Rainfall Ratios

Compliance Unit Generation: Rainfall Zone

Compliance Unit Generation: Land Use Area
• Extensive analysis completed to develop ratios to represent the difference in urban pollutant loading between land uses

Compliance Unit Generation: Net Environmental
Benefit
• The CCC RAC System has defined the standard Regulated Project NEB as a ratio of 1.1:1 (i.e., requiring purchase of 10% additional Equivalent Acres Greened)
Project Type Compliance Unit Land Use NEB Ratio
C.3.d Regulated
Project
Residential, Commercial,
Institutional or Transportation Standard - 1.1:1
C.3.d Regulated

C.3.j Retrofit
Requirement
N/A NEB not required

Compliance Unit Generation
• Detailed calculations on the compliance unit are provided in the System Summary Report
• Equivalent Acres Greened generated for Off-site GSI Projects and required purchase amount for Regulated Projects will be calculated through the RAC System Tracking Tool

RAC System
Tracking Tool

Overview of Tracking Tool
• Tracks compliance units generated and certified
• Tracks seller and buyer information
• Tracks exchanges, including number of compliance units purchased and total purchase amount
• Includes a ledger to track the compliance units sold and available for sale for each Off-Site GSI project
• Tracks O&M performed and reimbursements for O&M
• Tracks ongoing verification of compliance units
• Acts as a repository for documentation for all of the above

Project Background
The Cities of San Pablo, and Walnut Creek, and unincorporated Contra Costa County have partnered with USEPA through a San Francisco Bay Water Quality Improvement Fund grant to develop and pilot a Regional Alternative Compliance (RAC) System within Contra Costa County (the “Contra Costa County RAC System”). Entities in Contra Costa County must comply with the substantial post-construction stormwater treatment (i.e., Provision C.3) requirements of the San Francisco Bay Region Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP). Alternative Compliance Systems have been used in other areas of the United States to help municipalities, developers, and industry meet rigorous stormwater compliance requirements. The Water Board and legal reviewers were involved in developing the Contra Costa County RAC System.

What is the Contra Costa County Regional Alternative Compliance (RAC) System? The Contra Costa County RAC System is a program designed to provide a flexible, cost-effective, and scientifically defensible MRP C.3 compliance option to implement required post-construction stormwater treatment off-site.

How does the Contra Costa County RAC System work?
The Contra Costa County RAC System allows green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) treatment facilities or “Off-Site GSI Projects” to be constructed within the County to generate “compliance units” that can be exchanged through the System.

Compliance units can be sold to an interested party (i.e., a developer or municipality) in need of off-site stormwater treatment for MRP compliance.

A seller would design and
construct the Off-Site GSI
Projects that generate Contra
Costa County RAC System
compliance units. Off-Site GSI
Projects require certification
through the Contra Costa
County RAC System before
compliance units can be sold.

A buyer would pay for Contra
Costa County RAC System
compliance units to satisify
their project’s stormwater
compliance needs by
completing a “compliance
purchase”. Buyers would pay
an additional annual fee to
cover the ongoing operations
and maintenance (O&M) of
the Off-Site GSI Projects that
generate compliance units.

What does it mean
to be a “buyer”?
What does it mean
to be a “seller”?

PUBLIC FACT SHEET
Contra Costa County
ATTACHMENT "C"
The Contra Costa County RAC System provides equiva-
lency calculations, template agreements, and an online
RAC System Tracking Tool to help interested parties
determine their treatment requirements and complete
transactions through the buying and selling of compli - ance units.

Why is this important? What is the benefit of a
RAC System?
The Contra Costa County RAC System provides an
opportunity for the strategic development, siting, and
funding of larger regional stormwater treatment facilities (regional Off-Site GSI Projects) in areas with greater
legacy pollutant concerns. Regional stormwater treat -
ment facilities are sited and designed to treat large
drainage areas ranging from tens to hundreds of acres.

The Contra Costa County RAC System is also expected
to achieve cost savings for participants as larger storm- water treatment facilities typically have reduced capital and O&M costs per treated acre.

Who might be interested in participating?
Developers - Some development
and redevelopment sites may have
constraints (size, steep grades, etc.) that
make it difficult to build on-site stormwater
treatment. When a project has difficulty
building MRP-required stormwater
treatment on-site, it can use the Contra
Costa County RAC System to comply
with the MRP.

Municipalities - Municipalities may
purchase compliance units to comply
with MRP Provision C.3.j impervious
surface retrofit requirements.

Additionally, municipalities with
Regulated Projects such as large road
reconstruction projects could use the
Contra Costa County RAC System to
comply with the MRP. Municipalities may
also act as “sellers” through the Contra
Costa County RAC System.

Non-profits - Non-profits or other
environmental organizations may be
interested in building GSI facilities
that can be partially funded by selling
compliance units through the Contra
Costa County RAC System.

Contractors - Developers or contractors
may be interested in building Off-Site GSI
Projects to generate compliance units
that can be sold through the Contra Costa
County RAC System.

Next Steps
In 2023 and 2024, the first Contra Costa County
RAC System exchange will be conducted as a pilot,
and System administration processes will be further
developed. The Contra Costa County RAC System is
anticipated to be operational for additional exchanges
by the end of 2024.

More Details on Off-Site GSI
Projects:

Off-Site GSI Projects must be non-regulated, that is,
not required as part of any development project or
“Regulated Project” as defined by the MRP.

The compliance units generated by an Off-Site GSI
Project are calculated based on the acres and land
use that it treats.

Off-Site GSI Projects require ongoing verification,
consistent with processes used for existing GSI
facilities, and are eligible to receive annual operation and maintenance payments so they are properly
maintained.
