TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Manuel Carrillo Jr., Director of Recreation and Community Services
DATE: March 6, 2024
SUBJECT: Waive Formal Bid Procedures and Authorize the Purchase from Shaw Integrated Solutions, Inc. for CIP24-051-051-56017 & CIP21-193 Replacement of Police Department Dispatch
Carpet & Flooring and Esther Snyder Community Center
Gymnasium Wall Carpet

SUMMARY
The purpose of this staff report is for City Council to authorize the purchase from Shaw Integrated Solutions, Inc. for the replacement of Police Department Dispatch carpet & flooring and Esther Snyder Community Center, Gymnasium wall carpet as it would be uneconomical to follow purchasing procedures since the supplies are available through an existing award contract and previously completed the bidding process and (ii) the welfare of the public therefore would be promoted by dispensing with the purchasing procedures as allowed in the City’s Purchasing Ordinance Chapter 34 section 23 (C).

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Waive formal bid procedures pursuant to Section 34.23(C) of the Baldwin Park Municipal Code; and

2. Authorize the purchase in the amount of $53,770.02; and

3. Authorize the Director of Recreation & Community Services to executive any other associated documents needed for the purchase; and

FISCAL IMPACT
The purchase combines two (2) CIP projects for a total of $53,770.02. The Police Department Dispatch CIP24- 051-56017 has an allocation of $28,000 from the General Fund, however the cost to replace the carpet and flooring is $31,943.76. CIP24-051-56017 has an impact to the General Fund of an additional $3,943.76 to complete the project. The Esther Snyder Community Center CIP21-193 has an allocation of $225,000 from the Park Fees (Quimby Act) the cost to replace the wall carpet is $21,826.26.

BACKGROUND
At their November 1, 2023, City Council Meeting, the City Council approved the FY 2023-2024 CIP budget, which includes a CIP24-051-56017 and CIP21-093. The Police Department Dispatch CIP24-051-56017 has an allocation of $28,000 from the General Fund and the Esther Snyder Community Center CIP21-193 has an

Page 2 ends

allocation of $225,000 from the Park Fees (Quimby Act) for the cost to replace the wall carpet in the gymnasium.

The carpet and flooring in Dispatch has also reached its useful life and is showing considerable wear. The proposed vinyl and carpet tiles that will be purchased are commercial grade and can withhold high traffic use.

The installation of the new baseboards, vinyl flooring and carpet tiles to match will transform the rooms. Most of the installation will take place after hours and weekends if necessary to accommodate the 24-hour operations.

The Esther Snyder Community Center Gymnasium is currently going under remodel and the wall carpet is one the elements being replaced. Since there are multiple elements to complete the gymnasium project and to achieve the maximum cost savings, staff will work with several contractors to complete the project efficiently and effectively. Section
Sourcewell (formerly the National Joint Powers Alliance) is a national service cooperative that combines the purchasing power of more than 50,000 member agencies and streamlines the purchasing process. The City is a member agency and has the option to utilize Sourcewell's services and take advantage of their contract terms.

Sourcewell recently issued a Request for Proposals ("RFP") that streamlines the procurement process by developing RFP’s for national, competitive solicitations that meet or exceed local requirements. The rigorous process is continually refined to best meet the needs of participating agencies and allows Sourcewell to offer exceptional products from nationally acclaimed suppliers. Shaw Integrated Solutions is an identified bidder under the Sourcewell RFP. Section 34.23(C) of the Baldwin Park Municipal Code authorizes cooperative purchasing arrangements whenever the Council finds that the public interest and convenience require it. In such case, the City may purchase supplies and equipment utilizing purchasing agreements maintained by the County, State, or other public agencies like Sourcewell, without complying with the requirements of the City’s purchasing regulations.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may elect not to approve the purchase.

SUBJECT: Waive Formal Bid Procedures and Authorize the Purchase from TLS Choice LLC to Replace Esther Snyder Community
Center Sound Panels for CIP21-193 & CIP21-194

SUMMARY
The purpose of this staff report is for City Council to authorize the purchase with TLS Choice LLC for the replacement of sound panels for the Esther Snyder Community Center as it would be uneconomical to follow purchasing procedures since the supplies are available through an existing award contract and previously completed the bidding process and (ii) the welfare of the public therefore would be promoted by dispensing with the purchasing procedures as allowed in the City’s Purchasing Ordinance Chapter 34 section 23 (C).

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Waive formal bid procedures pursuant to Section 34.23(C) of the Baldwin Park Municipal Code; and

2. Authorize the purchase in the amount of $166,339.83 from TLS Choice LLC; and

3. Authorize the Director of Recreation & Community Services to execute any other associated documents needed for the purchase; and

4. Authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate funds included in the FY 23-24 CIP budget and make necessary adjustments to the budget.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund at this time. The total purchase is in the amount of $166,339.83 which includes installation. The total combined approved CIP budget amount for the project is $280,000 from the Park Fees (Quimby Act) for CIP21-193 in the amount of $225,000 with account # 234-60-620-58100-16227 and CIP21-194 in the amount of $55,000 with account #234-60-620-58100-16228.

BACKGROUND
At their November 1, 2023 City Council Meeting, City Council approved FY 2023-2024 CIP budget, includes CIP21-193 & 194 to Replace Sound Panels, Wall Carpet, Safety Pads and Paint for the Esther Snyder Community Center; Gymnasium, Weight/Boxing Room, Martial Arts and Games Room with an allocation from the Park Fee (Quimby Act) Funds in the amount of $225,000, account #234-60-620-58100-16227 and CIP21-194 in the amount of $55,000 with account #234-60-620-58100-16228. The total cost to replace the acoustical sound panels is $166,339.83. The installation of the new acoustical sound panels is to match the city logo standard color pallets. To achieve maximum cost savings and complete the project, staff will work with several contractors to reduce the overhead cost instead of awarding the entire project to one contractor. Thus, staff will present for the City Council’s consideration at a subsequent City Council Meeting if the award of other contracts exceeding the Chief Executive Officer’s signing authority.

The acoustic panels may be purchased under the Arvin Union School District Contract, Bid #2022-23-001. The Arvin Union School District Contract Agreement went out to bid and subsequently was approved at the July 19, 2022, board meeting. Since then, Arvin Union School District at their June 27, 2023, meeting extended Bid #2022- 23-001 bid results from July 1, 2023, thru June 30, 2024. Staff is requesting to waive the formal bid process to allow staff to procure with authorized supplier as per the City Purchasing Ordinance Chapter 34 section 23 (C) that reads as follows;
Whenever the Council finds that the public interest and convenience require, the City may purchase City supplies and equipment utilizing purchasing agreements maintained by the County, State, or other public agencies, without complying with the requirements of this chapter.

The purchasing ordinance authorizes “piggyback” since the contract was issued and already went through a bidding process at the time they were selected and made an authorized contractor. Attached is the proposed color design and layout.

DATE: March 6, 2024
SUBJECT: Recommendation for Approval of Funding From the Measure BP Stakeholders Oversight Committee (SOC) – Architectural Services for Concept Report for Proposed Sports Complex.

SUMMARY
The vision of the SOC and the community aligns with the vision of the City Council to provide a recreational location that will significantly enrich the community by promoting physical fitness, social interaction, inclusivity and family activities. The development of a Sports Complex has been identified as a priority project by the SOC.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

2. Authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate $80,000 from the Measure BP Fund

3. Direct the Chief Executive Officer and the Director of Recreation and Community Services to solicit Architectural Services via a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for this purpose.

FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no impact to the general fund. Funding will be budgeted from Measure BP.

BACKGROUND
The SOC solicited input from the community on the investment opportunities to be funded by Measure BP. They held three community engagement meetings on October 16, 2023, October 17, 2023 and January 18, 2024, and the theme that was consistent was the need of a sport complex for the community. On February 13, 2024, the SOC unanimously approved the Request for Funding for the amount of $80,000 to begin the Architectural concept for the proposed sports complex.

DISCUSSION
The development of a sports complex in the City quickly surfaced as an early community investment opportunity during the public engagement discussion related to Measure BP, before the Measure was passed and after it was passed.

The SOC endeavored to make in-person visits to several Sport Complex facilities in region to further shape the range of the amenities that could be included in our own sports complex.

Page 2 ends

The City has held preliminary discussions with the Baldwin Park Unified School District (BPUSD) about the possibility of a joint development of a sports complex at any of the sites of schools that have been decommissioned. Developing a concept report will assist in furthering such discussion.

ALTERNATIVES
None being recommended.

SUBJECT: Proposal- Request For Measure BP Funding- Architectural Services For Concept Report For Proposed Sports Complex

SUMMARY
The development of a sports complex had been identified as an early-start project by the SOC, based on input received at the community meetings as well as discussions held at the SOC meetings. The next important step in this endeavor is to commission the preparation of a Concept Report by an architectural firm that would outline the general features, amenities, land requirements, and a cost estimate for the sports complex.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve Measure BP Funding for the Preparation of a Concept Report for the development of a sports complex in the City.

Investment Opportunity Category: Sports Development
Subcategory: Sports Complex
Requestor: Administration and Recreation and Community Services Department Dollar Amount Requested: $80,000
Forward Recommendation to the City Council for Final Action

FISCAL IMPACT
Requested Funding will be a direct drawdown from the Measure BP Fund. As of November 30, 2023, the Fund Balance was $3.75 million, more than sufficient to cover the request of $80,000.

BACKGROUND
The SOC has held three community engagement meetings soliciting direct input from the community on the investment opportunities to be funded by the revenue received from Measure BP. One of the themes that was supported and captured in the Investment Categories of the SOC is the development of a Sports Complex. In furthering its own informational background, members of the SOC conducted two (2) field trips to cities in the region to gain ideas on particular features that our own sports complex could include. For example, the glassenclosed aquatics center with the retractable roof in the City of Upland; the use of multiple sports overlays on sporting fields in the City of Chino Hills; the inclusion of a multiplicity of sporting activities and community activities all in one single complex in the 100-acre site in the City of South Gate.

DISCUSSION
Sports for all ages and genders is an integral part of our American culture. The promotion of sporting activities is particularly important for the youth of our city, when the benefits of a healthy physical fitness development can be most effectively inculcated. Our City provides very limited sports facilities infrastructure to support the basic sporting needs of our community, much less to support a competitive sporting platform.

Page 2 ends

The confluence of two pivotal events have made the possibility of the development of a sports complex in the City far more realistic: the passage of Measure BP and the possible availability of property following the closure of several school sites by the Baldwin Park Unified School District. The preparation of the Concept Report being requested is crucial in advancing the development process, including in advocating with the School District and the community at large.

ALTERNATIVES
SOC may choose not to approve the recommendation.

DATE: March 6, 2024
SUBJECT: Approve the Requisition of Eleven (11) New Police Vehicles to the City’s Lease Program – Measure BP Stakeholders Oversite Committee (SOC) Recommendation

SUMMARY
A request for funding was submitted to the SOC for their consideration at their meeting of February 13, 2024.

The SOC approved the request, which is hereby presented to the City Council for its concurrence and approval for the addition of eleven (11) new police vehicles to the City’s Leasing Program including the required aftermarket upgrades. These vehicles will replace eleven (11) existing vehicles with similar features currently in use.

The leased vehicles will be assigned to the Patrol Division and Community Service Bureau. The displaced vehicles will then be sold at auction and the proceeds of the sale will be applied to the Leasing Program for procurement of future Police department vehicles.

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

2. Authorize the addition of eleven (11) new police vehicles to the City’s Lease Program; and

3. Authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate $1,136,00.00 funds from Measure BP (Fund #110) for this lease agreement; and

FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no impact on the general fund. The SOC has recommended the approval of $1,056,00.00 plus and additional $80,000.00 of Measure BP Funds.

On February 13, 2024, Measure BP Stakeholder Oversight Committee (SOC) considered a funding proposal to lease the eleven (11) police vehicles. The SOC approved the request and will recommend to the City Council to appropriate the funds from Measure BP.

The lease of the vehicles would be paid yearly through a service agreement (5 years), and funding will be budgeted

Page 2 ends

in future fiscal years from Measure BP Funds (Fund #110). The estimated payment plan would be as follows:

Year 1 estimated payment $317,732.80*
Year 2 estimated payment $184,566.80
Year 3 estimated payment $184,566.80
Year 4 estimated payment $184,566.80
Year 5 estimated payment $184,566.80
*Year one requires 50% of all aftermarket equipment to be paid.

BACKGROUND
This item seeks the City Council's consideration of approval to add eleven (11) police vehicles to the City’s Leasing program, including the purchase of any after-market equipment. The leased vehicles will replace ten (10) existing patrol vehicles currently in use. The 11th vehicle, a Ford Mustang Mach-E will be assigned to the Community Service Bureau of the Baldwin Park Police Department, replacing a 2004 Chevy Trailblazer that is 20 years old. The replaced vehicles will be sold at auction, and the sale proceeds will be applied to a vehicle replacement fund account for future use.

Having a modern, reliable police fleet is crucial for any department to effectively respond to calls for service and keep the community safe. However, budget constraints often mean police vehicles are kept in service long past their recommended lifespans and accumulate high mileage in demanding conditions.

The aged patrol vehicles in our fleet are prone to breakdowns, costly repairs, and excessive downtime. This directly reduces the number of available patrol units we have deployed at any given time. The following four vehicles which are currently in use have over 100,000 miles:
• Unit 3123 - 2015 Ford Explorer - 100,570 miles.
• Unit 3125 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 101,771 miles.
• Unit 3133 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 110,210 miles.
• Unit 3134 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 105,329 miles.

Additionally, Unit 3132 - 2016 Ford Explorer (Sgt Unit) has over 78,000 miles and due to its age, has been identified as needing replacement.

In 2020, the city purchased five 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrid vehicles using the funds received from AQMD. However, the department quickly learned that the 1st generation hybrid technology was insufficient for continuous robust police use based on extensive mechanical problems. All five of our new 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrid vehicles are spending an excessive amount of time in the shop for repairs, all over 100 days:
• Unit 3122 - 131 days in the shop - transmission issues • Unit 3129 - 107 days in the shop - transmission and axle issues • Unit 3130 - 161 days in the shop - transmission and axle issues • Unit 3135 - 151 days in the shop - wiring, axle, and differential issues • Unit 3137 - 151 days in the shop - rear differential and drive shaft issues The 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrids have proven unreliable for continuous and demanding police use, necessitating their removal and sale from the fleet.

In 2022, the department secured funding for four additional patrol vehicles to augment our fleet. However, due to our limited inventory for patrol, it only takes a few vehicles to be out of service to impact patrol operations

Page 3 ends

significantly. On multiple occasions over the past several months, some patrol shifts have had 50% or more of our regular contingent of vehicles unavailable due to repairs, maintenance, or mechanical issues.

This vehicle shortage has sometimes forced officers to double up in police units, decreasing our proactive patrol capabilities. It also lengthens response times to calls for service when no backup units are available due to so many vehicles being out of service for repairs. Citizens expect and deserve a prompt emergency response, which is being hindered due to the lack of operable vehicles.

We have reached the point where the state of our aging patrol fleet is now a direct threat to officer safety and our capability to patrol and respond to calls in the city effectively. Upgrading to newer pursuit-rated police Dodge Durango models would give officers reliable, high-performing vehicles ready to handle the unique demands of police work. This will restore our patrol efficiency, improve safety for officers, and ensure we can meet the community's needs by responding to calls promptly.

With Ford no longer accepting purchase orders for new Police Interceptors until 2025, we have an immediate need for patrol vehicles, which will not allow the department to wait over a year. Switching to the Dodge Durango pursuit vehicle allows us to acquire much-needed new pursuit-rated police units that are in stock rather than continue using unreliable, high-mileage vehicles for another year until new Ford orders can be fulfilled.

Additionally, the retail price for a Ford Explorer pursuit-rated vehicle is higher per unit than the Dodge Durango Pursuit alternative, making replacement with Ford’s Police Interceptors less cost-effective, given our budget constraints.

Purchasing the ten new pursuit-rated police vehicles would modernize our fleet and allow day- or night-shift-only vehicle assignments. This revised usage pattern would drastically extend the operational lifespan of vehicles by preventing round-the-clock operations that accelerate mechanical wear-and-tear and breakdowns.

To go green, the police department will add an all-electric vehicle to its fleet by purchasing a Ford Mach-E vehicle for its community service bureau, replacing the 2004 Chevy Trailblazer. The decision to go with the Mach-E follows other forward-thinking law enforcement agencies nationwide, like the NYPD and the Michigan State Police, who have added this vehicle to their fleet. There is a charging station on the 5 th floor of the parking
structure that the police department can utilize, eliminating any additional costs.

DISCUSSION
Both PD and PW have identified a lease acquisition program with Enterprise Fleet Management which amortizes the lease over five years. The 10 patrol cars are 2023 Dodge Durango and the support car is a 2024 electric Ford Mustang Mach-E.

Oversight Committee
FROM: Enrique C. Zaldivar, City Manager
DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Proposal- Request For Measure BP Funding- Ten Police Patrol Vehicles and One Police Support Vehicle (Lease Acquisition)

SUMMARY
In their mission to provide public safety services for the community, police officers require reliable patrol vehicles, adequately equipped with the necessary technology and other safety features, to be effective in serving the city residents and businesses. This request will replace ten old and unreliable patrol police vehicles and one support vehicle with new vehicles.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve Measure BP Funding for the lease of ten (10) patrol police vehicles and one (1) support police vehicle for the Police Department.

Investment Opportunity Category: Public Safety
Subcategory: Equipment
Requester: Police Department and Public Works Department Dollar Amount Requested: $1,056,000 ($211,200 per year, for five years) Authorize the CEO discretion to adjust the cost estimate/dollar amount requested by an additional $80,000, pending further refinement of the estimate with the lease company.

Forward recommendation to the City Council

FISCAL IMPACT
Requested funding will be a direct drawdown from the Measure BP Fund. As of November 30, 2023, the Fund balance was $3.75 million, more than sufficient to cover this request of $1,056,000.

The lease program is based on a five-year contract amortization. The monthly lease cost for each car is estimated to be $1600/month, $19,200/year/vehicle, $211,200/year/11 vehicles, $1,056,000/five years/11 vehicles.

Estimated annual total cost is $211,200 for the 11 vehicles.

BACKGROUND
Keeping an adequate and reliable fleet of vehicles for the Police Department is a shared responsibility between the Police Department (PD)and the Public Works Department (PW). As the emission control and power technologies have evolved, the City acquired a number of hybrid police patrol vehicles that were both gasoline and self-generating electric (not plug-in), which for police-type work would be considered a bold step at the time.

Five of the eleven cars being replaced were acquired in 2020 through a grant from Air Quality Management District (AQMD), intended to further promote the use of better emission reduction technology. Since the vehicles were an early generation of the hybrid technology, they have been unreliable and in constant need of repairs,

Page 2 ends

rendering them unusable. The Police Department needs to replace those vehicles with reliable and dependable vehicles. The other six vehicles have exceeded their service life at over 100,000 miles.

ALTERNATIVES
None being recommended.

SUBJECT: SUBMITTAL OF FUNDING PROPOSAL FOR THE MEASURE
BP STAKEHOLDERS OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE (SOC).

SUMMARY
The Police Department is requesting to submit a funding proposal for the Stakeholder Oversight Committee’s “SOC” consideration at its February 13, 2024, meeting. The proposal would be to lease ten police vehicles for our patrol fleet and one fully electric Community Service Vehicle, upgrading the Police Department’s fleet.

FISCAL IMPACT
The funding needed to support the lease of these vehicles for 5 years is estimated at $900,000-$1,200,000.

Enterprise offers a 5-year payment plan for the lease, which would average $211,200 per year.

RECOMMENDATION
I recommend we develop a replacement plan to phase out ten (10) patrol fleet vehicles over the next fiscal year. Pursuing funding through Measure BP would allow us to take advantage of the 2023 Dodge Durango Pursuit vehicle currently in stock. Replacing the Department’s aging and unreliable vehicles is critical for public safety and our ability to respond to calls effectively and timely. Moreover, having a new fully electric police vehicle (Mustang Mach-E) assigned to our Community Service Bureau would also showcase the city’s desire to incorporate zero-emission vehicles into the police department.

Submit a funding proposal to the SOC for the lease of:
• 10 Dodge Durango Pursuit vehicles.
• 1 Ford Mustang Mach-E Sport Crossover Utility vehicle. • Accessories, light bar, police cage, and support equipment. ($25k per vehicle).

BACKGROUND
A modern, reliable police fleet is crucial for any department to effectively respond to calls for service and keep the community safe. However, budget constraints often mean police vehicles are kept in service long past their recommended lifespans and accumulate extremely high mileage in demanding conditions.

Twenty-one (21) patrol vehicles are assigned to the Baldwin Park Police patrol fleet. However, some vehicles in the fleet are ten years old or have over 100,000 miles.

The aged patrol vehicles in our fleet are prone to breakdowns, costly repairs, and excessive downtime.

This directly reduces the number of available patrol units we have deployed at any given time. The following four vehicles have over 100,000 miles:
• Unit 3123 - 2015 Ford Explorer - 100,570 miles.
• Unit 3125 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 101,771 miles.
• Unit 3133 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 110,210 miles.
• Unit 3134 - 2016 Ford Explorer - 105,329 miles.

Additionally, Unit 3132 - 2016 Ford Explorer (Sgt Unit) has 73,758 miles and due to it’s age, has been identified as needing replacement.

In 2020, the city purchased five 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrid vehicles using the funds received from AQMD. However, the department quickly learned that the 1st generation hybrid technology was insufficient for continuous robust police use based on extensive mechanical problems. All five of our new 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrid vehicles are spending an excessive amount of time in the shop for repairs, all over 100 days:
• Unit 3122 - 131 days in the shop - transmission issues • Unit 3ZZ129 - 107 days in the shop - transmission and axle issues • Unit 3130 - 161 days in the shop - transmission and axle issues • Unit 3135 - 151 days in the shop - wiring, axle, and differential issues • Unit 3137 - 151 days in the shop - rear differential and drive shaft issues The 2020 Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrids have proven to be unreliable for continuous and demanding police use, necessitating their sale from the fleet.

In 2022, the department secured funding for four additional patrol vehicles to augment our fleet.

However, due to our limited inventory for patrol, it only takes a few vehicles to be out of service to impact patrol operations significantly. On multiple occasions over the past several months, some patrol shifts have had 50% or more of our regular contingent of vehicles unavailable due to repairs, maintenance, or mechanical issues.

This vehicle shortage forces officers at times to double up in remaining SUVs, decreasing our proactive patrol capabilities. It also lengthens response times to calls for service when no backup units are available due to so many vehicles being down for repairs. Citizens expect and deserve a prompt emergency response, which is being hindered due to the lack of operable vehicles.

With Ford no longer accepting purchase orders for new Police Interceptors until 2025, we have an immediate need for patrol vehicles which does not allow for the department to wait over a year. Switching to the Dodge Durango pursuit vehicle allows us to acquire much-needed new pursuit-rated police units that are in stock rather than continue using unreliable, high-mileage vehicles for another year until new Ford orders can be fulfilled. Additionally, the retail price for a Ford Explorer pursuit-rated vehicle is higher per unit than the Dodge Durango Pursuit alternative, making replacement with Ford’s Police Interceptors less cost-effective, given our budget constraints.

Investing in a modern fleet is crucial to our infrastructure and for the department's public safety mission.

Purchasing the ten new pursuit-rated police vehicles would modernize our fleet and allow day- or nightshift-only vehicle assignments. This revised usage pattern would drastically extend the operational lifespan of vehicles by preventing round-the-clock operations that accelerate mechanical wear-and-tear and breakdowns.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Sam Gutierrez, Director of Public Works
PREPARED BY: Lena Abdullah, Management Analyst
DATE: March 6, 2024
SUBJECT: Consider and Approve a Transit Services Agreement with Southland Transit, Inc. for Bus Operations and Maintenance of the City’s Dial-A-Ride and Fixed Route Transit Program and Approve a Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Refueling
Agreement with the City of El Monte to Support the City’s Transit Program

SUMMARY
This item requests that the City Council consider and approve a 1-year Transit Services Agreement with Southland Transit, Inc. (STI), to operate the City’s fixed route and dial-a-ride services as well as provide bus maintenance and possible extension of one additional year. It also requests that the Council consider and approve a CNG Refueling Agreement with the City of El Monte for a term of one year and possible extension of one additional year at the same terms

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Approve a 1-year Transit Services Agreement (TSA) with Southland Transit, Inc. and possible extension of one additional year, and Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement; and,

2. Approve a 1-year CNG Refueling Agreement with the City of El Monte and possible extension of one additional year and Authorize the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to execute the agreement; and,

3. Authorize the Director of Finance to appropriate an additional amount of $150,000 from Fund 244- Proposition A to ensure enough funds are available to fund the program at the new rate.

FISCAL IMPACT
The approval of the Transit Services Agreement will have no impact on the City’s General Fund. The City’s Transit Program is funded through Propositions A and C local return revenue as well as an annual credit from the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) for program reporting through the National Transit Database (NTD). The total amount of the proposed TSA is estimated at $1,685,974.40. The funds needed for the services are included in the FY 2023-24 operations budget approved by the City Council on July 5, 2023, however an additional $150,000 from Fund 244 (Prop. A) is needed to cover the cost of the higher hourly rate of service as well as the unforeseen additional expense for fuel procured through various third-parties due to the City’s CNG station being unavailable.

FY2023-24 Approved Funds Amount Available
Proposition A – Fixed Route and Dial-A-Ride operations $1,705,000 Proposition C – Fixed Route and Dial-A-Ride operations $151,000 Total Available Funds: $1,856,000

Page 2 ends

Estimated Additional Costs for FY2023-24 Estimated Amount Additional Appropriation from fund 244- Prop A for cost of higher rate from Dec 2023 to June 2024
$150,000
Total Estimated Costs (including already approved amount) $1,956,000 The approval of the CNG Refueling Agreement will have no impact on the City’s General Fund. The cost of fuel was budgeted and approved in FY 2023-24 operations budget. In September 2023 the City’s CNG Station unexpectedly became inoperable leaving no choice but for City and Transit vehicles to have to refuel at private stations at substantially higher rates. While the City’s CNG station is expected to be back in working order by the start of June 2024, this CNG Refueling Agreement will allow City and Transit vehicles to refuel for about half the cost per gas gallon equivalate until such time the City’s station is operational, as well as be used as an alternate station, should the City’s CNG station become unavailable.

BACKGROUND
Southland Transit, Inc. (STI) has been the City’s transit service operator for over 30 years. Starting as San Gabriel Valley Transit in 1994, The City of Baldwin Park was one of its first clients. Over the years, through various contract awards and contract extensions, STI has continued providing transit services for Fixed Route and DialA-Ride bus operations.

On June 5, 2013, the City Council approved a five (5) year Transit Services Agreement with the options for extensions. The City and STI have agreed upon and executed four (4) amendments to the contract with the last one being approved on December 21, 2022, and expiring on August 18, 2023. At the time the amendment was executed the City’s CNG station was not in operation yet so an interim rate was set at $90.33 until such time that the station is available which would then set the hourly rate at $72.43. When the amendment expired, City Staff and STI mutually agreed to continue service on a month-to-month basis so as not to interrupt service and to allow Staff time to explore options for creating a new contract. When the City’s CNG station was no longer operable the hourly rate was reverted to the interim rate.

Staff researched neighboring cities and found that the City of El Monte had a similar Transit Program to the City’s, as well as a CNG station. Staff determined it would be most time and cost efficient to “piggyback” off El Monte’s Request for Proposal (RFP) Process as permitted by Baldwin Park Municipal Code (BPMC 34.23 Section C - Bidding Exemptions for Cooperative Purchases). This section of the Municipal Code allows for cooperative purchases of goods and services.

On October 7, 2021, the City of El Monte sent out an RFP for Transit and Paratransit/Dial-A-Ride Operations.

They received two (2) viable responses, one from Southland Transit Inc, and one from First Transit, Inc. See.

After a thorough evaluation process that is outlined in the RFP, the City of El Monte found that STI scored higher in several categories, including Cost, Work Plan, Qualifications and Experience. The proposed cost structure for El Monte’s service varies slightly from the Cost Proposal received from STI for the City, however the rates were determined to be comparable.

DISCUSSION
Public Transit Service Operators all over California are facing financial hardships for many reasons including but not limited to low ridership, increased operational expenses, increased fuel cost, struggles to retain qualified drivers, and lastly due to continue efforts to recover from the industry-wide impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Staff is still committed to making the City’s Transit System more efficient, sustainable, and most importantly meet the needs of the residents. This will be achieved by revamping and reimagining the current program, which will require more time and effort than originally planned. To sustain the program until such time, staff rigorously negotiated with STI to reach a reasonable hourly rate, set up the agreement with the City of El Monte to use its

CNG station, and implementing a slight cut-back on service hours and operations with as little impact as possible to riders.

City and STI staff have concluded negotiations for the new contract and have established a proposed Revenue Hourly Rate of $84.40. The proposed rate is largely based on similar operations and services comparable to the rate structure as for the City of El Monte. The contract will allow for 19,970 revenue service hours with efforts being made to ensure operations continue with as minimal impact on commuters as possible. Also, fares will not increase and will remain at $1.00 for regular patrons and $0.50 for senior and disabled patrons. Staff is optimistic that these changes in services hours will also help improve performance and on-time services. The proposed changes include:
• Reduction of a few loops with low ridership for the all routes • One Express Line Trolley runs Monday through Friday instead of two. • Dial-a-Ride services will be expanded to 7 AM to 6 PM seven days a week. • The contract period will be one year with an option to extend for one additional year. • STI to provide General Transit Feed Specification (GTSG) files to meet City compliance with new NTD reporting requirements.
• STI to provide passenger counts by stop and time instead of just daily. • Implements the Schedule of Compensation Rates with City Provided CNG as follows:

STI has also partnered with TecTransit to provide real-time vehicle and map tracking for all Fixed-Routes. It is staff’s intention that prior to the end of the contract’s one-year term, a transit service consultant will evaluate the City’s Transit Program through a transit ridership and route efficient study to better enhance the bus services as well as provide framework for a Bus Shelter Advertising Program to increase revenue. We will also have more aggregated ridership data to ensure we are meeting the ridership needs of our community. The goals are for the program to be more efficient, allow better options for patrons, and increase ridership. The transit services study will be brought back later as a separate item with recommendations for City Council consideration.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may choose not to approve the contract the Transit Services Agreement with STI, however, not doing so may prompt STI to seek further good faith negotiations to eliminate certain services to offset the negative impact on the business of providing transit services.

1. City Council may, at its discretion, direct Staff to solicit RFQ/RFP’s and award a new contract agreement based on solicited service proposals; however, there may be an interruption to the current bus services should STI not be able to continue services.

2. The City Council may choose not to approve the CNG Refueling Agreement with the City of El Monte.

3. Provide Staff with alternate directions.

Monitoring: CONTRACTOR shall establish adequate monitoring systems, both administratively and in the field, to assure quality service provision.

Key Staff: CONTRACTOR shall identify key staff, including a single contact person with whom the CITY will have regular contact on daily operational issues. Said key staff shall be generally available to CITY staff during regular business hours and available to dispatch staff at all times when vehicles are operational. In addition, the CITY will require identification of key management level persons with whom CITY representatives may require periodic contact.

B. Service
The hours and days of service for Fixed Routes and Dial-A-Ride services are described in the Schedule of Performance Exhibit “C”.

C. Purchase of Optional Services (Special Trips)
In addition to regular operations, CONTRACTOR may, from time to time, upon receiving specific written authorization from CITY, be asked to provide special transportation services using Transit Services vehicles. These special services will be provided when determined by the CITY to be in the public interest, do not interfere with Transit Service’s regular operation and are in compliance with applicable federal and state statutes. The CONTRACTOR shall be paid for these services at the variable hourly rate as designated in the Cost Proposal. Such requests can be anticipated of the CONTRACTOR at a minimum of 1 hour per service on an average of 6 events per year. CITY will notify CONTRACTOR of the request within a reasonable time for the CONTRACTOR to prepare.

Hours associated with optional services are not included in the annual revenue service hour projection.

D. Calculation of Revenue Service Hours
CITY shall compensate CONTRACTOR for the management and operation of services for the CITY’s Transit Services based on Exhibit B- Schedule of Compensation.

The overall definition of a Revenue Service Hour is the actual time when the vehicle is available to the passengers and there is a reasonable expectation of carrying passengers that directly pay fares. Definitions by mode follow:

1. Fixed-route service definition: The time from the beginning of the first published route start-time, through to the end of the last run of the day (published route end times), exclusive of any times when the vehicle is not running due to driver breaks, lunch breaks, fueling time or when otherwise removed from scheduled service.

Payment shall not be made for scheduled services that are not provided. The time from the transportation yard to the beginning of the route and from the end of the route back to the transportation yard shall not be included in the Revenue Service Hour. Fueling time is never considered a Revenue Service Hour.

2. Demand response definition: The time from when a vehicle makes its first pick-up through the time of its last drop-off, excluding driver breaks and lunch breaks, fueling time and downtime for road calls. Driver time to and from breaks, as well as lunch breaks, will be excluded. Fueling time is never considered a Revenue Service Hour, but rather “dead head” miles if bus refuels mid-day.

E. Adjustments to Services
It is expected that Transit Services will be periodically adjusted, as determined by the CITY at its sole discretion, and in consultation with the CONTRACTOR. Modifications may include, but are not limited to, adding, or deleting bus stops, extending, deleting, or adding routes, or parts of routes, and expanding or decreasing service hours by up to 10% in either direction without changing the revenue service hour rate. This increase or decrease shall be considered from a base figure of 19,970 annual revenue hours.

Any such modifications in the number of service hours within the 10% levels established in this Scope of Work shall not require a modification of the revenue service hour rate provided in the “Schedule of Compensation” attached hereto and incorporated into this Agreement as “Exhibit B”. Such modifications of an increase or decrease within the 10% level shall be agreed upon and provided for in writing.

Any other change by the CITY in the Scope of Work that results in a modification to the number of service hours beyond the prescribed 10% levels shall permit the CONTRACTOR to renegotiate an increase in service rates. CONTRACTOR shall supply CITY with documentation of changes in costs resulting from the modification of the number of service hours or change in the Scope of Work.

For the purpose of this section, any changes to revenue service hour levels that result from modifications are deemed effective at the time that modifications are made.

The CITY will notify the CONTRACTOR a minimum of thirty (30) days in advance of any major service changes. However, minor service changes may be made in a shorter timeframe with the mutual agreement of the CITY and the CONTRACTOR.

F. Resources and Facilities
The CONTRACTOR shall provide adequate resources to perform the work as described, providing the CITY with a quality service that is responsive to customers. CONTRACTOR facilities shall be located such that the CONTRACTOR can meet the requirement of bringing a back-up vehicle into service within fifteen (15) minutes. This means that the back-up vehicle shall leave the CONTRACTOR facilities within fifteen (15) minutes of notification of the in-service problem. This standard shall apply to both fixed-route and demand service modes.

G. Equipment - Vehicles
The CITY shall provide the CONTRACTOR with the Transit Service vehicles that meet the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) service-life standard. The CITY shall provide vehicle licenses and registration. These vehicles shall be used only for the Transit Services, unless otherwise authorized by the CITY.

If the CONTRACTOR determines that an engine, transmission, differential and/or HVAC unit requires rebuilding or replacement, the CONTRACTOR shall notify the CITY immediately after making such determination and, subsequently, in writing, detailing the reason for such a determination. The CONTRACTOR will proceed with work upon receiving written authorization from the CITY. If the CONTRACTOR's maintenance personnel perform the work, only the cost of the parts, as approved by the CITY, will be reimbursed by the CITY. All labor costs associated with the removal, replacement, or installation of engines, transmissions, and differential units, including associated replacement of attachment devices, gaskets, seals, etc., are the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR and are not eligible for reimbursement. If the CITY authorizes the replacement of engines, transmissions, and/or differential units to CITY Service Vehicles be performed by an independent outside CONTRACTOR, the CITY will pay for all parts and labor costs associated with this work.

H. Fuel
The CITY is responsible for all fueling costs for assigned CNG vehicles. A CNG fueling station is available to the CONTRACTOR at the 14747 Ramona Blvd (Los Angeles County Public Works Maintenance Yard). As an alternative, the CONTRACTOR may fuel at the City of El Monte’s CNG fueling station at 3629 Cypress Ave. in the City of El Monte.

CONTRACTOR will be provided access to these fueling facilities either immediately before or after the times that revenue services are scheduled, in order to permit its drivers to fuel revenue vehicles in a timely and efficient manner.

Anticipated Contract Language Related to Performance Standards: CONTRACTOR shall provide timely and reliable transit service. This includes maintaining high trip completion levels and operating within the specified arrival and departure times. To encourage this, the liquidated damage described below may be instituted by CITY.

Implementation of liquidated damage clauses may be further delayed at the sole discretion of CITY and may not be initiated during the first twelve (12) months of operation, at any time during the term of this Agreement, again at the sole discretion of CITY.

Determination of liquidated damage shall be made utilizing sampling methods mutually agreed to by CITY and CONTRACTOR. The following liquidated damage clauses shall apply:

1. Completion of scheduled service hours at 99.5% is the minimum level of acceptability. The CONTRACTOR shall pay to the CITY as liquidated damages the amount of Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250) for each separate day of service not meeting that level, with a maximum of $1,000 monthly.

2. On-time performance of 95% of sampled runs per month is the minimum level of acceptability. The CONTRACTOR shall be assessed by the CITY the amount of Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($250) per month if sampled trips reflect on time performance below 90%.

3. Liquidated damages – Customer complaints that are verified to have a basis in fact, arise from CONTRACTOR’S performance, received by the CITY within 48 hours of the incident, and meet or exceed a rate of three (3) during any calendar month may result in a liquidated damages assessment of Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars ($250) for that month.

4. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the actual damages which would be suffered by the CITY in the event CONTRACTOR acts or fails to act in the manner set forth would result in substantial damages to the CITY but the amount of such damages would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain due to the nature of this Agreement and the nature of such damages. Accordingly, the parties, pursuant to applicable law, have determined to establish the provision of this Section as and for CITY's damages for such acts or failures to act, and not as a penalty, and further agree that such damages are reasonable. Each of the parties hereto specifically acknowledges agreement to the reasonableness thereof under the circumstances. CITY shall be entitled to take such other legal remedies as may be appropriate for such acts or failures to act, including but not limited to termination of this Agreement.

Related to measurement of performance, the CONTRACTOR and the CITY shall develop a mutually agreeable method for sampling on-time performance; it is anticipated that the CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for trip sampling presented in its monthly report and that CITY shall undertake its own on-time performance checks.

TRANSIT SERVICES AGREEMENT Exhibit C – Schedule of Performance

1. Description of Service Modes:

A. Fixed Route Services: The Fixed-Route service consists of four (4) buses and two (2) trolleys. It includes one route called the “Teal Line” and buses run in a clockwise manner through the city. The other route is called the "Pumpkin Line” with buses running counterclockwise to the Teal Line. The trolleys run on North and South bound routes that provide “Express Service” between Baldwin Park’s Metrolink Station and the CITY’s south business district.

I. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT
The City of El Monte (hereafter referred to as “the City”) is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to provide transportation services as outlined in Part I. Section B, Scope of Services. All proposals shall be for the complete management, maintenance and the operation of Fixed Route Transit (FRT) and Paratransit/Dial-A-Ride (DAR) services.

The City reserves the right to award separate contracts for the operation of fixed route transit services and Dial-A-Ride services.

This Request for Proposal (hereby referred to as “RFP”) is soliciting separate cost proposals for fixed route transit and paratransit/Dial-A-Ride services for a period of five (5) years, with three (3) one-year options to extend (hereinafter “Term” or “Agreement Term”).

City of El Monte – Transit and Paratransit Operations - RFP 8 of 77 A. BACKGROUND
With a population of approximately 116,000 residents, the City of El Monte is the tenth largest city in Los Angeles County. The City, which lies between two major freeways (I60 and I-10), is located in the San Gabriel Valley, east of Los Angeles.

The City of El Monte began providing local transit services Monday – Saturday in 1988 and paratransit services Monday – Sunday in 1989. Sunday fixed route transit was provided in December 2014, with funds initially provided through FTA’s JARC Grant.

These programs are currently funded with Prop A Local Return funds.

Its major trip generators include government and office buildings along Valley Boulevard and Garvey Avenue, Five Points Shopping Center, Fletcher Park, Metro Bus Station and several elementary schools along the route before returning to the El Monte Trolley Station (5.8 miles per loop).

ORANGE ROUTE
In response to heavy transit demand in the southeast portion of the City, the Orange Route began operations in November 1990. The Orange Route operates in a clockwise loop through the southeast portions of El Monte. Its major trip generators include government and office buildings along Valley Boulevard, Mountain View High School, El Monte High School; El Monte’s Aquatic, Community and Senior Citizen Centers; Arceo Park and several elementary schools along the route before returning to the El Monte Trolley Station (6.7 miles per loop).

DIAL-A-RIDE (DAR) PARATRANSIT SERVICE DESCRIPTION
The City of El Monte has operated a paratransit Dial-A-Ride service since 1989. El Monte’s Dial-A-Ride is currently a demand-response system serving the residents of the City of El Monte with curb-to-curb transportation service. Service is available to El Monte residents who are at least 55 years of age or disabled residents of any age. The City maintains a client database of approximately 4,685 DAR registrants.

The City is requiring the Project Manager be 100% dedicated to the Agreement.

Penalty/Liquidated Damages: Twenty-Five thousand dollars ($25,000) if any Key Personnel are reassigned or promoted to another position by the Contractor without City consent during the Agreement Term or if Project Manager is not 100% dedicated to the City of El Monte – Transit and Paratransit Operations - RFP 43 of 77 Contract (which includes tasking 100% Project Manager(s) with tasks not relating to the Contract or services and tasks outlined in the RFP).

Accurate Data Submittals
Contractor must provide accurate data to the City. As inaccuracies have been problematic for the City, the Contractor shall implement steps to minimize these occurrences, including:

1. As the buses do not currently have automated passenger counting systems onboard, the Contractor must provide, at a minimum, a hand tally counter for each bus. Each counter must have the ability to count for at least eight (8) different rider payment types (paying riders, free riders, access pass, etc.).

2. Developing a formal training program, including a training manual, for both new and existing drivers, on how to correctly complete the paper trip sheets, including mileage information and number of riders for each type of trip.

3. Train staff supervisor whose job it is to review and total trip sheet information, to accurately calculate and total trip sheet rows and columns, and to make any corrections to incorrect driver input prior to sending the forms to the City.

In the future, the City plans to introduce on-bus technology that will automate their current manual process, in order to reduce reporting errors. Proposers with current access to automated processes may include such information in their RFP response.

If Contractor fails to provide accurate data to the City by way of El Monte Trolley Daily Trip Sheets (95% accuracy rate) and monthly reports, the City will provide Contractor with a written notice requiring immediate improvement in reporting accuracy; if adequate improvement is not made within 30 days from delivery of the City’s written notice to the Contractor, penalty/liquidated damages will be assessed.

As the City of El Monte operates a total of five (5) routes per day for their fixed route service, 30 or 31 days per month, the City can expect to receive 150 – 155 trip sheets on a monthly basis. With a 95% accuracy rate, no more than eight (8) inaccurate trip sheets/month will be acceptable to the City. For each inaccurate trip sheet the City receives in excess of eight (8) per month, the City will impose penalty/liquidated damages.

Inaccurate documents/reports/trip sheets will be returned to the Contractor for corrections to be made, and documents/reports/trip sheets must be returned to the City within 14 days. If Contractor fails to provide documents after 14 days, the City will provide the Contractor with a written notice requiring immediate delivery of the documents; if the documents are not returned within 24 hours of the City’s written notice to the Contractor, penalty/liquidated damages will be assessed.

City of El Monte – Transit and Paratransit Operations - RFP 44 of 77 Penalty/Liquidated Damages: One thousand dollars ($1000) for the first month, if Contractor fails to provide accurate paperwork/data to the City. After the first occurrence, inaccurate trip sheets (eight (8) or more in a one-month period) provided to the City in subsequent months shall be assessed one thousand dollars ($1000), plus an additional two hundred and fifty dollars ($250) per inaccurate trip sheet provided by the Contractor to the City.
