BAKERSFIELD POLICE
MEMORANDUM
The Bakersfield Police Department partners with our community to protect the lives and property of the people we serve.
Compassion • Accountability • Professionalism
To: Randy McKeegan, Finance Director
From: Jeremy Blakemore, Assistant Chief of Police
Date: March 20, 2026
Subject: Sale Request of Surplus Police Equipment to City of Taft
The Bakersfield Police Department utilizes electronic control weapons, also known as tasers, to minimize higher levels of force and potential injury during encounters with combative individuals. The department has recently transitioned to a newer model, the Taser 10, which increases effectiveness and safety for officers and community members. The previous model, Taser 7, has no trade-in or other monetary value for the department.
The City of Taft Police Department has recently requested to obtain a portion of our Taser 7 surplus as the devices can still be useful for their agency needs. As part of our ongoing partnerships with other countywide law enforcement agencies, the Bakersfield Police Department seeks to sell fifteen (15) Taser 7 devices and associated hardware for the cost of $1.00. Approval of this request will not have any adverse fiscal impact to the City of Bakersfield. Upon transfer, the City of Taft will assume all future responsibilities with the maintenance and ownership.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 8, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer M. Byers, Economic & Community Development Director DATE: March 17, 2026
SUBJECT: Termination of Agreements with Circle of Life Development Foundation (COLDF)
1. 2025-114 ($ $215,058.14) to implement the Community Engagement Plan
2. 2025-116 ($719,878.50) to implement the MLK Community Garden Initiative
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend termination of the agreements.
BACKGROUND:
On March 10, 2025, the city entered into Grant Agreement SGC23129 with the Strategic Growth Council (SGC) which established the City as Lead Grantee for the Transformative Climate Communities grant funds. The program serves to implement a series of community-driven projects in Southeast Bakersfield aiming to create a unified vision for environmental, economic, and social resilience. The $22.125 million investment will support eight (8) integrated projects focused on improving air quality, increasing mobility options, expanding affordable housing, and creating green spaces, while advancing economic opportunity. COLDF served as one of 16 implementation project partners.
On July 9,2025, the city entered into Agreement 2025-114 with COLDF in the amount of $217,844.14 dollars to implement the Community Engagement Plan. Additionally, the city entered into Agreement 2025-116 with COLDF in the amount of $728,904 dollars to implement the MLK CommUNITY Garden Initiatives.
In January of 2026, COLDF requested an extended period away from Community Engagement Plan and MLK CommUNITY Garden program implementation. Time away from program implementation would impact timelines like one (1) year readiness requirements set by SGC. After conversation with COLDF and city staff, COLDF has decided to forfeit the remainder of funds, $215,058.14 for Agreement 2025- 114 and $719,878.50 for Agreement 2025-116. Therefore, staff requests that City Council terminate Agreements 2025-114 and 2025-116. Section 4 of the Agreements provided that the city reserves the right to terminate the agreement upon giving subrecipient notice of intention to terminate at least thirty days prior to the effective date of the termination. Formal notice was sent March 02, 2026.
As an SGC funded program, the funding is already obligated to the Community Engagement Plan and MLK CommUNITY Garden initiatives. After discussion with state project officers, this funding will go to another vendor to perform the same scopes of work. Terminated funds would therefore be reprogrammed to another eligible vendor. If approved, the city will enter into an agreement with a vendor already familiar with the Community Engagement Plan and MLK CommUNITY Garden initiatives.
This vendor has strong ties to Southeast Bakersfield and plans to build on existing relationships with community members and implementation parters.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact: this program is grant funded through Strategic Growth Council Transformative Climate Communities Grant.
COUNCIL GOAL:
Community Character & Quality of Life

MEETING DATE: April 8, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip Burns, Development Services Director
DATE: March 24, 2026
SUBJECT: Final Map, Improvement Agreement, and Landscape Agreement with RGF Land Company, Inc for Tract 7263 Phase 3.
Developer is requesting to enter into agreements so the final map for Tract 7263 Phase 3 located on the Northeast Corner of Reliance Road and Berkshire Road can be approved and recorded (Ward 7).
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Final Map, Improvement Agreement, and Landscape Agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Per Bakersfield Municipal Code Chapter 16, “Subdivisions," Tentative Tract Map 7263 was conditioned by the Planning Commission to require the construction of certain improvements within and adjacent to the tentative tract map, which include, but are not li mited to, streets, sewer, walls, and storm drain on or adjacent to the property being subdivided. If these improvements are not completed when the developer, RGF Land Company, Inc., a California Corporation wishes to record a portion of the tentative tract map (through a final map), the developer must execute an improvement agreement through which the developer agrees to complete the construction of the improvements within one year of the date the agreement is executed. The City Engineer may extend the ti me to complete the improvements upon request. Certificates of Occupancy or final inspections will not be allowed for any building within the bounds of the final map until these required improvements are completed and accepted by the City of Bakersfield and a Notice of Completion for the improvements is recorded.
The Public Works Department has completed the review of the final map submitted by the Developer and is recommending that the Council approve the map. In addition, the Improvement Agreement outlining the Developer’s responsibilities for onsite infrastructure improvements, which typically accompanies approval of the final map, is also included and recommended for approval.
The Landscape Improvement Agreement requires the Developer to complete the required landscape and irrigation improvements within the time frame and in the manner outlined in the agreement’s terms. A landscape agreement is required whenever the Developer desires to record their final map before the landscaping improvements are in.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There will be no financial impact to the City. Proposed street improvements are being bonded for and included within the proposed improvement agreement.
COUNCIL GOAL:
The proposed map and agreement support City Council Goal # 3 Reliable infrastructure.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 8, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Randy McKeegan, Finance Director
DATE: March 25, 2026
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Agreement NO. 2023-041 with VertexOne Software, LLC 2 (increasing compensation $998,856; revised not to exceed $2,666,401) for additional data migrations and project scope adjustments necessary for completion of utility billing system implementation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend approval of the amendment.
BACKGROUND:
On February 8, 2023, the City of Bakersfield entered into a Master Services Agreement, (Agreement 2023- 041) with VertexOne Software, LLC (“VertexOne”), to implement a new utility billing software system.
The City and VertexOne have determined that an amen dment to Agreement No. 2023 -041 is necessary due to data -quality issues identified during the implementation of the VXcis system. During the data conversion process, the condition of the legacy data required substantially more remediation and validation than originally anticipated. To ensure the accuracy, completeness, and reliability of all data migrated into the new system, three additional data migrations were deemed essential.
Exhibit E includes the expanded scope and timeline adjustments outlined in the “First Amendment” with specific details provided in two separate documents related to the new scope or work. The first is connected to an additional data migration necessary to prepare for the final phases of the integration.
The second lays out additio nal data migrations required to finalize data corrections, support expanded User Acceptance Testing (UAT), and System Integration Testing (SIT). These activities materially affect the project schedule and overall scope. As a result of the expanded effort, the project’s go-live date must be revised to November 2026, with Final Acceptance expected in January 2027.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The $998,856 increase is available in the ERP project established for the City. No appropriation of additional funds is necessary.
COUNCIL GOAL:
Innovative and Efficient City Government

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Bakersfield (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system.

You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you.

Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 8, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer M. Byers, Economic & Community Development Director DATE: March 20, 2026
SUBJECT: Amendment No. 2 to Agreement No. 2024-304 with Community Action Partnership of Kern (CAPK) (increase ARPA grant funding $932,464.03) with for the Home Repair & Weatherization Program.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend approval of the amendment
BACKGROUND:
The City of Bakersfield was awarded Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLRF), a part of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), to support the response to and recovery from the COVID-19 public health emergency.
On November 20, 2024, the City of Bakersfield City Council entered into Agreement No. 2024-304 with Community Action Partnership of Kern (CAPK) for implementation of the Home Repair and Weatherization Program (Program), using $700,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding. Prior to engaging CAPK in services rendered for this Program, the city had entered into Agreement No. 2023- 007 with Staples Energy (terminated by Council on March, 25, 2026) under the same ARPA framework as they were unable to complete the Scope of Work.
ARPA funding is required to be spent within specific, approved categories as outlined in the Final Rule and funds can only be reclassified to programs within the same framework. The City proposes to reallocate the unexpended funding obligated to Staples Energy to CAPK. An additional $92,915.63 in funding will be added to the CAPK agreement which will revise total compensation not to exceed $932,464.03, which will be used to increase the volume of participants and associated costs for administration of the Program.
CAPK administers funds for residential improvements that assist homeowners and tenants make necessary health and safety repairs to their home.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The action to amend the agreement and provide additional funding does not include any use of General Funds, due to the lack of action on the part of previous contracted entity (Staple Energy). The allocation of unspent APRA will be reprogramed to CAPK as ARPA funds are Federal Allocations it will have no impact the General Fund.
COUNCIL GOAL:

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 8, 2026 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreement TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer M. Byers, Economic and Community Development Director DATE: March 25, 2026
SUBJECT: Calm Horizon’s Project .
1. Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 2025-027 with The Asha Desai Irrevocable Trust (allocating the sales price between the real property and the Furniture Fixtures and Equipment (FFE) for the purchase of the hotel at 2310 Wible Road)
2. Sub-agreement no. 2025-027(FFE) with RP Golden State Mgt., LLC the owner/operator of the hotel for the Calm Horizon’s Project for the purchase of the FFE
(Ward 1)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Amendment and the Agreement.
BACKGROUND: After California voters passed Proposition 1 in March of 2024, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) was authorized to establish the Behavioral Health Continuum Infrastructure Program (BHCIP) to construct, acquire, and expand properties and invest in mobile crises infrastructure related to Behavioral Health.
On November 20, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 167-2024, authorizing the application to and participation in BHCIP. The city, in partnership with Kern County Behavioral Heath, applied for funding not to exceed $25,000,000. The proposed project, Calm Horizons, would establish a new residential treatment facility for behavioral health and substance abuse at 2310 Wible Road.
On February 25, 2025, the City Council approved agreement 2025-027 with The Asha Desai Irrevocable Trust, for the purchase of an existing hotel located at 2310 Wible Road, Bakersfield, CA for the site of the treatment facility. The agreement was for the purchase of real property along with all furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FFE) necessary to operate the hotel which the City intends to use for operations of the facility.
On May 27, 2025, DHCS notified Economic and Community Development staff of the conditional award in the amount of $22,867,345 for the proposed Calm Horizons project.
On January 8, 2026, the City entered into the Program Funding Agreement 7690-CA BHCIP- BOND_1054_CalmHorizons-01 to acquire and rehabilitate project property. This agreement requires the City to provide cash match funding in the amount of $22,867,345 and sunk costs in the amount of $265,000. The match funds are proposed to be accounted for in the Opioid Settlement Funds received by the City through the National Opioid Settlement Agreement.
On March 25, 2026, the City Council approved the appropriation of the Grant funds in the amount of $22,867,345.
During the escrow for the purchase of the property, it was determined the seller owns the FFE and operates the hotel under a different entity than the real property. Therefore, staff prepared Amendment No. 1 to Agreement 2025-027 to allocate the sales price between the real property and FFE and to properly disclose the interest of the additional owner. Additionally, to protect the City, staff prepared agreement 2025-027FFE to ensure the owner of the FFE agrees to all necessary terms and conditions for the sale of the FFE which were previously agreed to in agreement 2025-027.
FISCAL IMPACT: The City was awarded a BHCIP grant for this project, in the amount of $22,867,345. The grant requires a 10% match which staff proposes to utilize the Opioid Settlement Fund. There is no impact to the General Fund

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval for creation of project number and appropriation of funds.
BACKGROUND:
On June 25, 2025, the City of Bakersfield entered into Agreement No. 2025 -105 with Willdan Energy Solutions for a multi-phase Investment Grade Audit (IGA) project. The agreement provides that, following completion and review of the Preliminary Investment Grade Audit (Phase 1), the City may elect to proceed to Phase 2.
Phase 2 consi sts of a comprehensive Investment Grade Audit that will identify and evaluate turnkey energy conservation measures across City facilities. The audit will include detailed recommendations, funding analyses, implementation strategies, and Guaranteed Maximum Prices for each proposed project.
Phase 1 was completed at no cost to the City. Compensation for Phase 2 is contingent upon the City’s decision to proceed with one or more of the projects identified in the audit, in accordance with the procedures outlined in Agreement No. 2025 -105. If the City elects not to proceed with any of the recommended projects, the agreement requires payment to Willdan Energy Solutions in the amount of $289,761, pursuant to the backout provision.

This initiative aligns with the City' s objectives under California Government Code section 4217. 10 et seq. and aims to facilitate significant advancements in areas such as Fleet Transition & EV Charging Facilities, Streetlighting, Wastewater Energy Production/ Use, Solar and Battery Installations, Building HVAC and Lighting Improvements, and other innovative projects that contribute to the city' s goals.
The City of Bakersfield intends to utilize the progressive Design -Build process as outlined in California Public Contract Code section 22185 et seq. ( Senate Bill 706), without providing upfront capital. Instead, it is anticipated that the savings generated from the implemented conservation and efficiency measures will finance the project costs over their useful life. The City of Bakersfield is open to other mechanisms to fund potential projects.
The City of Bakersfield may select more than one company for Design -Build Energy Services. An accepted approach is to have selected PROPOSER( s) engage in an Investment Grade Audit ( IGA) and establish a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMAX) for various proposed projects. However, the City of Bakersfield is open to review of any proposals that meet project goals. If an agreement on the GMAX ( or other relevant metric) is reached, the City of Bakersfield may award an agreement to the ESCOor other qualified proposer to finalize the design and commence construction. However, if an agreement is not reached or the City of Bakersfield decides not to proceed with the original contract scope, it reserves the right to seek alternative proposals for the remaining work, either from other proposers or through a competitive proposal process, based on best value.
Selected PROPOSER(s) may engage in a different approach to plan, assess, and develop a project scope if an IGA is not necessary. This is dependent on the selected PROPOSER(s) recommended approach to complete a project and complete the overall goals outlined in this RFQ.
Please note when this RFQ refers to an ESCO, it is implied that this term includes other qualified organizations that conduct energy savings projects. This RFQalso highlights the intended project approach of conducting an IGA, identifying a GMAX, and using energy savings to finance a project.
Please note the City of Bakersfield may allow other forms of assessing, planning, and financing a project that ultimately leads to a design - build project the yields the City of Bakersfield energy savings, fuel savings, operational savings, or staff time.
Proposals must adhere to both general and special requirements as stipulated in this Request for Qualifications ( RFQ). The City' s Public Works department will oversee the solicitation process, seeking innovative and effective proposals from ESCOsand other qualified organizations capable of providing the listed Design -Build Energy Services. This initiative underscores the City of Bakersfield' s commitment to enhancing the quality and efficiency of its public facilities and services. 4 ORIGINAL'
Design -Build Energy Services Request for Qualifications, City of Bakersfield H. BACKGROUND
Located in the southern end of California' s Central Valley, Bakersfield is a Charter City operating under the council- manager form of government. The City of Bakersfield has a robust workforce of approximately 2,000 employees and manages annual expenditures of around $ 788 million.
Bakersfieldis roughly 110 miles northeast of LosAngeles, making it a significant hub for agriculture, energy production, and distribution in the region. With a growing and diverse population of approximately 400,000, Bakersfield offers a mix of suburban and semirural living across its 151 square miles of incorporated territory.
The City of Bakersfield currently expends a substantial portion of its budget on utility costs. As such, the City of Bakersfield is seeking the services of a qualified ESCOor other qualified organization to provide comprehensive Design -Build and related services for implementing energy -related improvements and usage reduction measures under the authority of California Government Code section 4217. 10 et seq. ( Section 4217. 10). The specific City facilities and the scope of the Project being considered are detailed in Section III of this RFQ, with the City aiming to implement the Project ( or portions of it) in order to reduce energy costs of City facilities, applying the annual guaranteed cost savings to finance the Projects and create long term savings. While using guaranteed cost savings is desirable by the City, the City may use other mechanisms to fund projects at its discretion.
The selected organizations will be expected to conduct a thorough assessment of the City' s facilities and existing infrastructure to identify and evaluate the expected cost savingsgenerated by the energy measures or improvements. Following this, the organization will define the scope of work, total cost, and guaranteed savingsgenerated by the proposed Project. Designand preconstruction activities will commence to establish a GMAX for the project which could be financed or paid for entirely by cost savings generated by the Project. If the City of Bakersfield and ESCO reach an agreement as to the GMAX, the City may authorize the PROPOSER to complete the remaining design and proceed with the construction of the Project. Construction will be conditional upon the City obtaining and approving funding for the Project as described in Section 4217. 10. Following completion of the Project, PROPOSERwill be expected to guarantee the savings generated by the Project over the useful life of the improvements.
As provided in Public Contract Code section 22185 et seq., if the City and the selected PROPOSER are unable to reach an agreement on the GMAX, or if the City elects not to authorize the PROPOSER to complete design and construction work for the Project, the City may solicit proposals to complete the Project from other Responding Parties to this RFQ. Alternatively, the City also may formally solicit proposals from other entities and award a contract on a best -value basis, subject to the City making a written determination that it is in its best interests to do so. These Project delivery options should be considered and built into PROPOSER's project delivery and cost assumptions. The Project or portions thereof) may be subject to individual negotiations for price and scope. The City is seeking the expertise and input from PROPOSERon approaches to achieve reductions in energy expenses at the designated facilities and accordingly are invited to provide suggestions and recommendations to the City on the feasibility, structure, and preliminary findings to achieve those savings.
