CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Stephanie Sirls, Transit Manager
Art Vela, Director of Public Works
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-18, Approving an Updated Service Plan for Banning Connect Transit Services
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that City Council adopt Resolution 2024-18.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Banning, under the management of the Department of Public Works, owns and operates the Banning Connect Transit System which includes the operation of Fixed -Route services that serve between Banning and Cabazon. Additionally, the Dial-A-Ride division offers curb-to-curb transit services to ADA, elderly and disabled citizens residing within the City of Banning.

Transit dependent residents of the San Gorgonio Pass area rely heavily on the public transit system and Banning Connect will continue to operate as efficiently and effectively as possible while providing the highest level of customer service. In support of the transit operations, and to maintain safe, efficient, and reliable services, it is necessary to modify current bus schedules to improve system reliability.

To meet demand, staff proposes to revise the current service as follows:

Restoring hourly service to Cabazon from 6:15 AM to 5:45 PM on Route 1.

Routes 5 and 6 will be combined into one route with two buses simultaneously running the route and rebranded as the “Banning Circulator” instead of the “5/6 Combo”.

The Banning Circulator will run seven days a week instead of just on weekends.

Addition of hourly service to the new Atwell community on the Banning Circulator and Dial-A-Ride.

Current Fiscal Year 2023/2024 fixed route revenue service hours are expected to remain the same. If approved, the modifications will take effect February 20, 2024.

Once the changes are made, staff will observe ridership volumes to ensure that the proposed changes are meeting the community’s needs.

JUSTIFICATION:

In an effort to improve system reliability, the rebranding of the Route 5/6 Combo and a subsequent service change is warranted. The residents of Cabazon have been increasingly asking that hourly service be restored since the onset of the pandemic. Secondly, there is a need to add fixed route and DAR service in the Atwell Community to ensure that Banning’s newest residents have access to public transportation and critical services such as grocery store trips and doctor appointments. These 961
associated schedule changes are necessary in order to provide and maintain equitable, efficient, safe and reliable transit services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no anticipated fiscal impact.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Adopt Resolution 2024-18 as presented.

2. Adopt Resolution 2024-18 with modifications.

3. Do not adopt Resolution 2024-18 and provide alternative direction to staff.

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Derek Thesier, Acting Chief of Police
Derek Thesier
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-20, Authorizing the Acceptance of the Donation of Three (3) BMW Police Motorcycles from the City of Riverside Police Department.

RECOMMENDATION:

City staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-20.

BACKGROUND:

The Banning Police Department is re-establishing the Traffic Bureau, which will be comprised of both sworn and non-sworn members of the Banning Police Department. This Bureau will investigate traffic collisions and engage in traffic enforcement. The Traffic Bureau will also participate in public education, the management of grants and work with the traffic engineer to help with traffic studies and create safer streets. The Traffic Bureau's ultimate goal will be to minimize traffic collisions, injuries associated with traffic collisions and traffic related deaths. The vehicles used to enforce the traffic laws will be comprised of traditional patrol vehicles, police motorcycles and other specialized vehicles.

The Banning Police Department previously had a Police Motorcycle program and is actively working to re-implement the program. Banning Police Department management reached out to the surrounding police agencies for assistance and Chief Larry Gonzalez of the Riverside Police Department answered the call. The Riverside Police Department was in the process of decommissioning several Police Motorcycles as they had just taken delivery of their new fleet. Three (3) Police Motorcycles, in good condition, were donated by the City of Riverside City Council on January 16, 2024, to the Banning Police Department in an effort to help re-establish the Banning Police Department's Motor Officer Program. The donated motorcycles include: two (2) 2013 BMW Motorcycles; and one (1) 2014 BMW Motorcycle.

JUSTIFICATION:

These donated motorcycles will be used to facilitate the re-implementation of the Banning Police Department's motor program at minimal cost. These donated motors will allow for the Banning Police Department to field a second motor in or about July 2024, while allowing for a backup motorcycle should either motorcycle need maintenance / service.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated fiscal impact for all three (3) motorcycles to include fuel usage according to the Fleet Services Manager will be approximately $5,000 annually.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose to reject the donation and provide alternative direction. 980

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Ann Marie Loconte, Associate Engineer
Art Vela, Director of Public Works
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-21, Initiating Proceedings to Update Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 for Fiscal Year 2024/2025 RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that City Council adopt Resolution 2024-21, initiating proceedings to update Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 for Fiscal Year 2024/2025 in order to prepare the assessments of the area.

BACKGROUND:

In accordance with the “Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972” (“1972 Act”) of the Streets and Highways Code, the City Council adopted a resolution on August 14, 1990, ordering the formation of Landscape Maintenance District (LMD) No. 1, (“the District”) the boundaries of which are shown in Attachment “2.” An additional five tracts and three tentative tracts were annexed (Annexation No. 1) into LMD No. 1 when the City Council approved Resolution No. 2005-36 on May 10, 2005. Tract No. 37320 then joined LMD No. 1 on November 14, 2023 when the City Council approved Resolution No. 2023-177, as Annexation No. 2. The District, by special benefit assessments, provides funding for the servicing and maintenance of certain landscape areas within the City of Banning, all of which are located in the public right-of-way.

The 1972 Act requires that assessments are to be levied according to benefit rather than according to assessed value. Resolution No. 2024-21 will initiate proceedings to update the assessment for LMD No. 1 for Fiscal Year 2024/2025. A tentative schedule for updating the District, as required by the “Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972,” is attached hereto as Attachment 3.

JUSTIFICATION:

The City Council approved the formation of Landscape Maintenance District No. 1 by adopting Resolution 1990-59 on August 14, 1990. The adoption of Resolution 2024-21 will enable the City Engineer to prepare the assessments for Fiscal Year 2024/2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None related to Resolution 2024-21. Staff plans on presenting detailed information regarding the revenues and expenditures related to LMD No.1 during a workshop in the near future. Additionally, a detailed estimate will be prepared and forwarded with the required Engineer’s Report.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Adopt Resolution 2024-21 as recommended.

2. Adopt Resolution 2024-21 with modifications.

3. Do not approve Resolution 2024-21 and provide alternative direction to staff. Not approving the update of the LMD No. 1 assessment will likely result in decreased revenue for maintaining the 988
LMD No. 1 areas.

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Roberto Jauregui, Acting Lieutenant
Derek Thesier, Acting Chief of Police
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-22, Approving the Purchase of 50 Motorola APX NEXT Radios and Accessories
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-22.

BACKGROUND:

Currently the Banning Police Department utilizes the Motorola APX 7000 radios as its handheld portable radio. The APX 7000 is now a radio that is no longer serviceable by Motorola as the 8000 series and now APX NEXT have since replaced the 7000 series. The Banning Police Department tested and evaluated products from multiple vendors and determined that based on functionality, interoperability, and reliability, the Motorola APX NEXT radio is the optimal piece of equipment to fill the needs of the Banning Police Department, ensure enhanced officer safety for department members, and effectively respond to emergencies throughout the City of Banning and neighboring jurisdictions.

JUSTIFICATION:

The Banning Police Department is currently utilizing all its handheld radio resources and needs to be able to equip incoming personnel, as well as upgrade radio equipment to ensure all personnel are utilizing equipment that is able to be serviced should a problem occur. The purchase of Motorola APX NEXT portable radios will allow the Banning Police Department to fully equip staff members with the most up-to-date and technologically advanced radio equipment. Staff have researched other comparable radios currently available and have found that Motorola best fit the City's best interest and have Sole Sourced this procurement for the following reasons. These radios will allow department members to utilize a piece of life-saving equipment that will enhance officer safety and allow uninterrupted communication between the Banning Police Department and allied agencies. The Motorola APX NEXT radios include features such as GPS location services so while officers are conducting their duties it is possible to locate officers and deploy resources appropriately during emergency situations, including natural disasters such as wildfires. The APX Next radio is also LTE enabled so when a traditional radio loses the ability to communicate because it is out of range of radio towers, the APX NEXT LTE kicks in for uninterrupted service.

Radios are a key component for communication to officers who must have reliable communication with not only the Banning Police Department but to other agencies in the region. Staff researched hardware and in evaluation of functionality and compatibility, determined that using the Motorola APX radios would be in the best interest of the City. Staff identified the availability of alternative radios and found similar products to have compatibility issues, less coverage, and were less reliable than using the Motorola radios. After careful consideration, Staff recommends single source, sole source purchase of the 995
Motorola APX NEXT portable radios.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The purchase of 50 Motorola APX NEXT radios and related accessories will require an amount not to exceed $648,253.15, with the following payment option:

1. Motorola Solutions allows for a one-year deferred payment option, which would allow the City of Banning and Banning Police Department to seek grant funding during that year.

2. After the one-year deferred payment period if grant funding were not located to fund the entirety of the project, then the City of Banning would pay for any remaining balance of the purchase cost over five annual payments (including lease rate).

3. Five annual payments, beginning one-year after contract execution, in the amount of $129,650.63 (includes lease interest rate of 5.85%).

Pursuant to Government Code Section 5852.1, the following good faith estimates (obtained from the Lender) must be disclosed at a public meeting before the authorization of the Lease. The estimates are based on market estimates as of 1/23/2024:

Information to be disclosed per Government Code
Section 5852.1:

Estimates as
of 1/23/2024
True interest cost of the Lease (the rate necessary to
discount the amounts payable on the respective principal and interest payment dates to the purchase price
received for the new issue of Lease)

5.85%
Finance charge of the Lease (the sum of fees and
charges paid to third parties): $ 99,881.75
Amount of proceeds received by the public body from the sale of the Lease, less the finance charge of the Lease and any reserves or capitalized interest paid or funded with proceeds of the Lease
$548,371.40
The total payment amount (the sum total of all debt
service payments on the Lease, plus the finance charge
of the Lease not paid from bond proceeds)
$648,253.15
ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose to reject staff’s recommendation and provide alternative direction.

If any assumptions or conditions contained in this Agreement, applicable Addenda or Statements of Work prove to be incorrect or if Customer’s obligations are not performed, Motorola’s ability to perform under this Agreement may be impacted and changes to the Contract Price, subscription fees, project schedule, Deliverables, or other changes may be necessary.

4.9. NON-PRECLUSION. If, as a result of the Services performed under this Agreement, Motorola recommends that Customer purchase products or other services, nothing in this Agreement precludes Motorola from participating in a future competitive bidding process or otherwise offering or selling the recommended products or other services to Customer. Customer represents that this paragraph does not violate its procurement or other laws, regulations, or policies.

4.10. PROPRIETARY MATERIALS. Customer acknowledges that Motorola may use and/or provide Customer with access to Proprietary Materials and Derivative Proprietary Materials.

Section 7 SITES AND SITE CONDITIONS

7.1. ACCESS TO SITES. In addition to its responsibilities described elsewhere in this Agreement, Customer will provide a designated project manager; all necessary construction and building permits, zoning variances, licenses, and any other approvals that are necessary to develop or use the sites and mounting locations; and access to the worksites or vehicles identified in the Technical and Implementation Documents as reasonably requested by Motorola so that it may perform its duties in accordance with the Performance Schedule and Statement of Work. If the Statement of Work so indicates, Motorola may assist Customer in the local building permit process.

7.2. SITE CONDITIONS. Customer will ensure that all work sites it provides will be safe, secure, and in compliance with all applicable industry and OSHA standards. To the extent applicable and unless the Statement of Work states to the contrary, Customer will ensure that these work sites have adequate:
physical space; air conditioning and other environmental conditions; adequate and appropriate electrical power outlets, distribution, equipment and connections; and adequate telephone or other communication lines (including modem access and adequate interfacing networking capabilities), all for the installation, use and maintenance of the System. Before installing the Equipment or Software at a work site, Motorola may inspect the work site and advise Customer of any apparent deficiencies or non-conformities with the requirements of this Section. This Agreement is predicated upon normal soil conditions as defined by the version of E.I.A. standard RS-222 in effect on the Effective Date.

7.3. SITE ISSUES. If a Party determines that the sites identified in the Technical and Implementation Documents are no longer available or desired, or if subsurface, structural, adverse environmental or latent conditions at any site differ from those indicated in the Technical and Implementation Documents, the Parties will promptly investigate the conditions and will select replacement sites or adjust the installation 1007
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 8 plans and specifications as necessary. If change in sites or adjustment to the installation plans and specifications causes a change in the cost or time to perform, the Parties will equitably amend the Contract Price, Performance Schedule, or both, by a change order.

Section 8 TRAINING
Any training to be provided by Motorola to Customer will be described in the applicable Statement of Work.

Customer will notify Motorola immediately if a date change for a scheduled training program is required. If Motorola incurs additional costs because Customer reschedules a training program less than thirty (30) days before its scheduled start date, Motorola may recover these additional costs.

Section 9 SYSTEM ACCEPTANCE

9.1. COMMENCEMENT OF ACCEPTANCE TESTING. Motorola will provide to Customer at least ten (10) days notice before the Acceptance Tests commence. System testing will occur only in accordance with the Acceptance Test Plan.

9.2. SYSTEM ACCEPTANCE. System Acceptance will occur upon successful completion of the Acceptance Tests. Upon System Acceptance, the Parties will memorialize this event by promptly executing a System Acceptance Certificate. If the Acceptance Test Plan includes separate tests for individual Subsystems or phases of the System, acceptance of the individual Subsystem or phase will occur upon the successful completion of the Acceptance Tests for the Subsystem or phase, and the Parties will promptly execute an acceptance certificate for the Subsystem or phase. If Customer believes the System has failed the completed Acceptance Tests, Customer will provide to Motorola a written notice that includes the specific details of the failure. If Customer does not provide to Motorola a failure notice within thirty (30) days after completion of the Acceptance Tests, System Acceptance will be deemed to have occurred as of the completion of the Acceptance Tests. Minor omissions or variances in the System that do not materially impair the operation of the System as a whole will not postpone System Acceptance or Subsystem acceptance, but will be corrected according to a mutually agreed schedule.

9.3. BENEFICIAL USE. Customer acknowledges that Motorola’s ability to perform its implementation and testing responsibilities may be impeded if Customer begins using the System before System Acceptance. Therefore, Customer will not commence Beneficial Use before System Acceptance without Motorola’s prior written authorization, which will not be unreasonably withheld. Motorola is not responsible for System performance deficiencies that occur during unauthorized Beneficial Use. Upon commencement of Beneficial Use, Customer assumes responsibility for the use and operation of the System.

9.4. FINAL PROJECT ACCEPTANCE. Final Project Acceptance will occur after System Acceptance when all deliverables and other work have been completed. When Final Project Acceptance occurs, the parties will promptly memorialize this final event by so indicating on the System Acceptance Certificate (Exhibit D) and the Equipment Lease Purchase Agreement Delivery and Acceptance Certificate (Exhibit E).

Section 10 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

10.1. SYSTEM FUNCTIONALITY. Motorola represents that the System will perform in accordance with the Specifications in all material respects. Upon System Acceptance or Beneficial Use, whichever occurs first, this System functionality representation is fulfilled. Motorola is not responsible for System performance deficiencies that are caused by ancillary equipment not furnished by Motorola which is attached to or used in connection with the System or for reasons or parties beyond Motorola’s control, such as natural causes; the construction of a building that adversely affects the microwave path reliability or radio frequency (RF) coverage; the addition of frequencies at System sites that cause RF interference or intermodulation; or Customer changes to load usage or configuration outside the Specifications.

10.2. EQUIPMENT WARRANTY. During the Warranty Period, Motorola warrants that the Equipment under normal use and service will be free from material defects in materials and workmanship. If System 1008
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 9 Acceptance is delayed beyond six (6) months after shipment of the Equipment by events or causes beyond Motorola’s control, this warranty expires eighteen (18) months after the shipment of the Equipment.

10.3. SOFTWARE WARRANTY. Except as described in the SwSP and unless otherwise stated in the Software License Agreement, during the Warranty Period, Motorola warrants the Software in accordance with the warranty terms set forth in the Software License Agreement and the provisions of this Section that are applicable to the Software. If System Acceptance is delayed beyond six (6) months after shipment of the Motorola Software by events or causes beyond Motorola’s control, this warranty expires eighteen (18) months after the shipment of the Motorola Software. Nothing in this Warranty provision is intended to conflict or modify the Software Support Policy. In the event of an ambiguity or conflict between the Software Warranty and Software Support Policy, the Software Support Policy governs.

10.4. EXCLUSIONS TO EQUIPMENT AND SOFTWARE WARRANTIES. These warranties do not apply to: (i) defects or damage resulting from: use of the Equipment or Software in other than its normal, customary, and authorized manner; accident, liquids, neglect, or acts of God; testing, maintenance, disassembly, repair, installation, alteration, modification, or adjustment not provided or authorized in writing by Motorola; Customer’s failure to comply with all applicable industry and OSHA standards; (ii) breakage of or damage to antennas unless caused directly by defects in material or workmanship; (iii) Equipment that has had the serial number removed or made illegible; (iv) batteries (because they carry their own separate limited warranty) or consumables; (v) freight costs to ship Equipment to the repair depot; (vi) scratches or other cosmetic damage to Equipment surfaces that does not affect the operation of the Equipment; and (vii) normal or customary wear and tear.

10.5. SERVICE WARRANTY. During the Warranty Period, Motorola warrants that the Services will be provided in a good and workmanlike manner and will conform in all material respects to the applicable Statement of Work. Services will be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of ninety (90) days from the date the performance of the Services are completed. Customer acknowledges that the Deliverables may contain recommendations, suggestions or advice from Motorola to Customer (collectively, “recommendations”). Motorola makes no warranties concerning those recommendations, and Customer alone accepts responsibility for choosing whether and how to implement the recommendations and the results to be realized from implementing them.

10.6. WARRANTY CLAIMS. To assert a warranty claim, Customer must notify Motorola in writing of the claim before the expiration of the Warranty Period. Upon receipt of this notice, Motorola will investigate the warranty claim. If this investigation confirms a valid Equipment or Software warranty claim, Motorola will (at its option and at no additional charge to Customer) repair the defective Equipment or Motorola Software, replace it with the same or equivalent product, or refund the price of the defective Equipment or Motorola Software. These actions will be the full extent of Motorola’s liability for the warranty claim. In the event of a valid Services warranty claim, Customer’s sole remedy is to require Motorola to re-perform the nonconforming Service or to refund, on a pro-rata basis, the fees paid for the non-conforming Service. If this investigation indicates the warranty claim is not valid, then Motorola may invoice Customer for responding to the claim on a time and materials basis using Motorola’s then current labor rates. Repaired or replaced product is warranted for the balance of the original applicable warranty period. All replaced products or parts will become the property of Motorola.

10.7. ORIGINAL END USER IS COVERED. These express limited warranties are extended by Motorola to the original user purchasing the System or Services for commercial, industrial, or governmental use only, and are not assignable or transferable.

10.8. DISCLAIMER OF OTHER WARRANTIES. THESE WARRANTIES ARE THE COMPLETE

WARRANTIES FOR THE EQUIPMENT AND MOTOROLA SOFTWARE PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ARE GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES. MOTOROLA DISCLAIMS ALL

OTHER WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED

WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
1009
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 10 Section 11 DELAYS

11.1. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Party will be liable for its non-performance or delayed performance if caused by a Force Majeure. A Party that becomes aware of a Force Majeure that will significantly delay performance will notify the other Party promptly (but in no event later than fifteen days) after it discovers the Force Majeure. If a Force Majeure occurs, the Parties will execute a change order to extend the Performance Schedule or applicable Addenda for a time period that is reasonable under the circumstances.

11.2. PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE DELAYS CAUSED BY CUSTOMER. If Customer (including its other contractors) delays the Performance Schedule, it will make the promised payments according to the Payment schedule as if no delay occurred; and the Parties will execute a change order to extend the Performance Schedule and, if requested, compensate Motorola for all reasonable charges incurred because of the delay. Delay charges may include costs incurred by Motorola or its subcontractors for additional freight, warehousing and handling of Equipment; extension of the warranties; travel; suspending and re-mobilizing the work; additional engineering, project management, and standby time calculated at then current rates; and preparing and implementing an alternative implementation plan.

Section 12 DISPUTES
The Parties will use the following procedure to address any dispute arising under this Agreement (a “Dispute”).

12.1. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State in which the System is installed.

12.2. NEGOTIATION. Either Party may initiate the Dispute resolution procedures by sending a notice of Dispute (“Notice of Dispute”). The Parties will attempt to resolve the Dispute promptly through good faith negotiations including 1) timely escalation of the Dispute to executives who have authority to settle the Dispute and who are at a higher level of management than the persons with direct responsibility for the matter and 2) direct communication between the executives. If the Dispute has not been resolved within ten (10) days from the Notice of Dispute, the Parties will proceed to mediation.

12.3. MEDIATION. The Parties will choose an independent mediator within thirty (30) days of a notice to mediate from either Party (“Notice of Mediation”). Neither Party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of a mediator. If the Parties are unable to agree upon a mediator, either Party may request that American Arbitration Association nominate a mediator. Each Party will bear its own costs of mediation, but the Parties will share the cost of the mediator equally. Each Party will participate in the mediation in good faith and will be represented at the mediation by a business executive with authority to settle the Dispute.

12.4. LITIGATION, VENUE and JURISDICTION. If a Dispute remains unresolved for sixty (60) days after receipt of the Notice of Mediation, either Party may then submit the Dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which the System is installed. Each Party irrevocably agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in such state over any claim or matter arising under or in connection with this Agreement.

12.5. CONFIDENTIALITY. All communications pursuant to subsections 12.2 and 12.3 will be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence and any additional confidentiality protections provided by applicable law. The use of these Dispute resolution procedures will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either Party.

Section 13 DEFAULT AND TERMINATION
1010
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 11 13.1. DEFAULT BY A PARTY. If either Party fails to perform a material obligation under this Agreement, the other Party may consider the non-performing Party to be in default (unless a Force Majeure causes the failure) and may assert a default claim by giving the non-performing Party a written and detailed notice of default. Except for a default by Customer for failing to pay any amount when due under this Agreement which must be cured immediately, the defaulting Party will have thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice of default to either cure the default or, if the default is not curable within thirty (30) days, provide a written cure plan. The defaulting Party will begin implementing the cure plan immediately after receipt of notice by the other Party that it approves the plan. If Customer is the defaulting Party, Motorola may stop work on the project until it approves the Customer’s cure plan.

13.2. FAILURE TO CURE. If a defaulting Party fails to cure the default as provided above in Section

13.1, unless otherwise agreed in writing, the non-defaulting Party may terminate any unfulfilled portion of this Agreement. In the event of termination for default, the defaulting Party will promptly return to the nondefaulting Party any of its Confidential Information. If Customer is the non-defaulting Party, terminates this Agreement as permitted by this Section, and completes the System through a third Party, Customer may as its exclusive remedy recover from Motorola reasonable costs incurred to complete the System to a capability not exceeding that specified in this Agreement less the unpaid portion of the Contract Price.

Customer will mitigate damages and provide Motorola with detailed invoices substantiating the charges. In the event Customer elects to terminate this Agreement for any reason other than default, Customer shall pay Motorola for the conforming Equipment and/or Software delivered and all services performed.

Section 14 INDEMNIFICATION

14.1. GENERAL INDEMNITY BY Motorola. Motorola will indemnify and hold Customer harmless from any and all liability, expense, judgment, suit, or cause of action arising from any third party claim or demand for personal injury, death, or direct damage to tangible property which may accrue against Customer to the extent it is caused by the negligence of Motorola, its subcontractors, or their employees or agents, while performing their duties under this Agreement, if Customer gives Motorola prompt, written notice of any thirdparty claim or suit. Customer will cooperate with Motorola in its defense or settlement of such claim or suit. This Section sets forth the full extent of Motorola’s general indemnification of Customer from liabilities that are in any way related to Motorola’s performance under this Agreement.

14.2. GENERAL INDEMNITY BY CUSTOMER. Customer will indemnify and hold Motorola harmless from any and all liability, expense, judgment, suit, or cause of action arising from any third party claim or demand for personal injury, death, or direct damage to tangible property which may accrue against Motorola to the extent it is caused by the negligence of Customer, its other contractors, or their employees or agents, while performing their duties under this Agreement, if Motorola gives Customer prompt, written notice of any thirdparty claim or suit. Motorola will cooperate with Customer in its defense or settlement of such claim or suit. This Section sets forth the full extent of Customer’s general indemnification of Motorola from liabilities that are in any way related to Customer’s performance under this Agreement.

14.3. PATENT AND COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT.

14.3.1. Motorola will defend at its expense any suit brought against Customer to the extent it is based on a third-party claim alleging that the Equipment manufactured by Motorola or the Motorola Software (“Motorola Product”) directly infringes a United States patent or copyright (“Infringement Claim”). Motorola’s duties to defend and indemnify are conditioned upon: Customer promptly notifying Motorola in writing of the Infringement Claim; Motorola having sole control of the defense of the suit and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise; and Customer providing to Motorola cooperation and, if requested by Motorola, reasonable assistance in the defense of the Infringement Claim. In addition to Motorola’s obligation to defend, and subject to the same conditions, Motorola will pay all damages finally awarded against Customer by a court of competent jurisdiction for an Infringement Claim or agreed to, in writing, by Motorola in settlement of an Infringement Claim.

14.3.2 If an Infringement Claim occurs, or in Motorola's opinion is likely to occur, Motorola may at its option 1011
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 12 and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Motorola Product; (b) replace or modify the Motorola Product so that it becomes non-infringing while providing functionally equivalent performance; or (c) accept the return of the Motorola Product and grant Customer a credit for the Motorola Product, less a reasonable charge for depreciation. The depreciation amount will be calculated based upon generally accepted accounting standards.

14.3.3 Motorola will have no duty to defend or indemnify for any Infringement Claim that is based upon: (a) the combination of the Motorola Product with any software, apparatus or device not furnished by Motorola; (b) the use of ancillary equipment or software not furnished by Motorola and that is attached to or used in connection with the Motorola Product; (c) Motorola Product designed or manufactured in accordance with Customer’s designs, specifications, guidelines or instructions, if the alleged infringement would not have occurred without such designs, specifications, guidelines or instructions; (d) a modification of the Motorola Product by a party other than Motorola; (e) use of the Motorola Product in a manner for which the Motorola Product was not designed or that is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement; or (f) the failure by Customer to install an enhancement release to the Motorola Software that is intended to correct the claimed infringement. In no event will Motorola’s liability resulting from its indemnity obligation to Customer extend in any way to royalties payable on a per use basis or the Customer’s revenues, or any royalty basis other than a reasonable royalty based upon revenue derived by Motorola from Customer from sales or license of the infringing Motorola Product.

14.3.4. This Section 14 provides Customer’s sole and exclusive remedies and Motorola’s entire liability in the event of an Infringement Claim. Customer has no right to recover and Motorola has no obligation to provide any other or further remedies, whether under another provision of this Agreement or any other legal theory or principle, in connection with an Infringement Claim. In addition, the rights and remedies provided in this Section 14 are subject to and limited by the restrictions set forth in Section 15.

Section 15 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Except for personal injury or death, Motorola's total liability, whether for breach of contract, warranty, negligence, strict liability in tort, indemnification, or otherwise, will be limited to the direct damages recoverable under law, but not to exceed the price of the Equipment, Software, or implementation and other one-time Services with respect to which losses or damages are claimed. With respect to all subscription or other ongoing Services and unless as otherwise provided under the applicable Addenda, Motorola’s total liability will be limited to the direct damages recoverable under law, but not to exceed the price of twelve (12) months of Services preceding the incident giving rise to the claim. ALTHOUGH THE PARTIES

ACKNOWLEDGE THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES, THEY AGREE THAT

MOTOROLA WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY COMMERCIAL LOSS, INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS TIME, DATA, GOODWILL, REVENUES, PROFITS OR SAVINGS; OR OTHER SPECIAL,

INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IN ANY WAY RELATED TO OR ARISING

FROM THIS AGREEMENT, THE SALE OR USE OF THE EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES BY MOTOROLA PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT. This limitation of liability provision survives the expiration or termination of the Agreement and applies notwithstanding any contrary provision. No action for contract breach or otherwise relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be brought more than one (1) year after the accrual of the cause of action, except for money due upon an open account.

Section 16 CONFIDENTIALITY AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

16.1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

16.1.1. Each party is a disclosing party (“Discloser”) and a receiving party (“Recipient”) under this Agreement. All Deliverables will be deemed to be Motorola’s Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years from the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Recipient will (i) not disclose Confidential Information to any third party; (ii) restrict disclosure of Confidential Information to only those employees (including, but not limited to, employees of any wholly owned 1012
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 13 subsidiary, a parent company, any other wholly owned subsidiaries of the same parent company), agents or consultants who must be directly involved with the Confidential Information for the purpose and who are bound by confidentiality terms substantially similar to those in this Agreement; (iii) not copy, reproduce, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any Confidential Information; (iv) use the same degree of care as for its own information of like importance, but at least use reasonable care, in safeguarding against disclosure of Confidential Information; (v) promptly notify Discloser upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information and take reasonable steps to regain possession of the Confidential Information and prevent further unauthorized actions or other breach of this Agreement; and (vi) only use the Confidential Information as needed to fulfill this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Motorola acknowledges that the Customer is subject to the California Records Act.

16.1.2. Recipient is not obligated to maintain as confidential, Confidential Information that Recipient can demonstrate by documentation (i) is now available or becomes available to the public without breach of this agreement; (ii) is explicitly approved for release by written authorization of Discloser; (iii) is lawfully obtained from a third party or parties without a duty of confidentiality; (iv) is known to the Recipient prior to such disclosure; or (v) is independently developed by Recipient without the use of any of Discloser’s Confidential Information or any breach of this Agreement.

16.1.3. All Confidential Information remains the property of the Discloser and will not be copied or reproduced without the express written permission of the Discloser, except for copies that are absolutely necessary in order to fulfill this Agreement. Within ten (10) days of receipt of Discloser’s written request, Recipient will return all Confidential Information to Discloser along with all copies and portions thereof, or certify in writing that all such Confidential Information has been destroyed. However, Recipient may retain one (1) archival copy of the Confidential Information that it may use only in case of a dispute concerning this Agreement. No license, express or implied, in the Confidential Information is granted other than to use the Confidential Information in the manner and to the extent authorized by this Agreement. The Discloser warrants that it is authorized to disclose any Confidential Information it discloses pursuant to this Agreement.

16.2. PRESERVATION OF MOTOROLA’S PROPRIETARY RIGHTS. Motorola, the third party manufacturer of any Equipment, and the copyright owner of any Non-Motorola Software own and retain all of their respective Proprietary Rights in the Equipment and Software, and nothing in this Agreement is intended to restrict their Proprietary Rights. All intellectual property developed, originated, or prepared by Motorola in connection with providing to Customer the Equipment, Software, or related services remain vested exclusively in Motorola, and this Agreement does not grant to Customer any shared development rights of intellectual property. Except as explicitly provided in the Software License Agreement, Motorola does not grant to Customer, either directly or by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any right, title or interest in Motorola’s Proprietary Rights. Customer will not modify, disassemble, peel components, decompile, otherwise reverse engineer or attempt to reverse engineer, derive source code or create derivative works from, adapt, translate, merge with other software, reproduce, distribute, sublicense, sell or export the Software, or permit or encourage any third party to do so. The preceding sentence does not apply to Open Source Software which is governed by the standard license of the copyright owner.

16.3 VOLUNTARY DISCLOSURE. Except as required to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, Motorola will have no obligation to provide Customer with access to its Confidential Information and/or proprietary information. Under no circumstances will Motorola be required to provide any data related to cost and pricing.

16.4 DATA AND FEEDBACK.

16.4.1 To the extent permitted by law, Customer owns all right, title and interest in System Data created solely by it or its agents (hereafter, “Customer Data”), and grants to Motorola the right to use, host, cache, store, reproduce, copy, modify, combine, analyze, create derivatives from, communicate, transmit, publish, display, and distribute such Customer Data.
1013
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 14 16.4.2 Motorola owns all right, title and interest in data resulting from System Data that is or has been transformed, altered, processed, aggregated, correlated or operated on (hereafter, “Derivative Data”).

16.4.3 Any Feedback given by Customer is and will be entirely voluntary and, even if designated as confidential, will not create any confidentiality obligation for Motorola. Motorola will be free to use, reproduce, license or otherwise distribute and exploit the Feedback without any obligation to Customer.

Customer acknowledges that Motorola’s receipt of the Feedback does not imply or create recognition by Motorola of either the novelty or originality of any idea. The parties further agree that all fixes, modifications and improvements made to Motorola products or services conceived of or made by Motorola that are based, either in whole or in part, on the Feedback are the exclusive property of Motorola and all right, title and interest in and to such fixes, modifications or improvements to the Motorola product or service will vest solely in Motorola.

Section 17 GENERAL

17.1. TAXES. The Contract Price does not include any excise, sales, lease, use, property, or other taxes, assessments or duties, all of which will be paid by Customer except as exempt by law. If Motorola is required to pay any of these taxes, Motorola will send an invoice to Customer and Customer will pay to Motorola the amount of the taxes (including any interest and penalties) within thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice. Customer will be solely responsible for reporting the Equipment for personal property tax purposes, and Motorola will be solely responsible for reporting taxes on its income or net worth.

17.2. ASSIGNABILITY AND SUBCONTRACTING. Except as provided herein, neither Party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Any attempted assignment, delegation, or transfer without the necessary consent will be void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Motorola may assign this Agreement to any of its affiliates or its right to receive payment without the prior consent of Customer. In addition, in the event Motorola separates one or more of its businesses (each a “Separated Business”), whether by way of a sale, establishment of a joint venture, spin-off or otherwise (each a “Separation Event”), Motorola may, without the prior written consent of the other Party and at no additional cost to Motorola, assign this Agreement such that it will continue to benefit the Separated Business and its affiliates (and Motorola and its affiliates, to the extent applicable) following the Separation Event. Motorola may subcontract any of the work, but subcontracting will not relieve Motorola of its duties under this Agreement.

17.3. WAIVER. Failure or delay by either Party to exercise a right or power under this Agreement will not be a waiver of the right or power. For a waiver of a right or power to be effective, it must be in a writing signed by the waiving Party. An effective waiver of a right or power will not be construed as either a future or continuing waiver of that same right or power, or the waiver of any other right or power.

17.4. SEVERABILITY. If a court of competent jurisdiction renders any part of this Agreement invalid or unenforceable, that part will be severed and the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

17.5. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS. Each Party will perform its duties under this Agreement as an independent contractor. The Parties and their personnel will not be considered to be employees or agents of the other Party. Nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted as granting either Party the right or authority to make commitments of any kind for the other. This Agreement will not constitute, create, or be interpreted as a joint venture, partnership or formal business organization of any kind.

17.6. HEADINGS AND SECTION REFERENCES. The section headings in this Agreement are inserted 1014
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 15 only for convenience and are not to be construed as part of this Agreement or as a limitation of the scope of the particular section to which the heading refers. This Agreement will be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms and conditions and not for or against either Party.

17.7. NOTICES. Notices required under this Agreement to be given by one Party to the other must be in writing and either personally delivered or sent to the address provided by the other Party by certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid (or by a recognized courier service, such as Federal Express, UPS, or DHL), or by facsimile with correct answerback received, and will be effective upon receipt.

17.8. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS. Each Party will comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations and rules concerning the performance of this Agreement or use of the System.

Customer will obtain and comply with all Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) licenses and authorizations required for the installation, operation and use of the System before the scheduled installation of the Equipment. Although Motorola might assist Customer in the preparation of its FCC license applications, neither Motorola nor any of its employees is an agent or representative of Customer in FCC or other matters.

17.9 FUTURE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this is an evolving technological area and therefore, laws and regulations regarding Services and use of Solution may change. Changes to existing Services or the Solution required to achieve regulatory compliance may be available for an additional fee. Any required changes may also impact the price for Services.

17.10. AUTHORITY TO EXECUTE AGREEMENT. Each Party represents that it has obtained all necessary approvals, consents and authorizations to enter into this Agreement and to perform its duties under this Agreement; the person executing this Agreement on its behalf has the authority to do so; upon execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Parties, it is a valid and binding contract, enforceable in accordance with its terms; and the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement does not violate any bylaw, charter, regulation, law or any other governing authority of the Party.

17.11. ADMINISTRATOR LEVEL ACCOUNT ACCESS. If applicable to the type of System purchased by Customer, Motorola will provide Customer with Administrative User Credentials. Customer agrees to only grant access to the Administrative User Credentials to those personnel with the training and experience to correctly use them. Customer is responsible for protecting Administrative User Credentials from disclosure and maintaining Credential validity by, among other things, updating passwords when required. Customer may be asked to provide valid Administrative User Credentials when in contact with Motorola System support personnel. Customer understands that changes made as the Administrative User can significantly impact the performance of the System. Customer agrees that it will be solely responsible for any negative impact on the System or its users by any such changes. System issues occurring as a result of changes made using the Administrative User Credentials may impact Motorola’s ability to perform Services or other obligations under the Agreement. In such cases, a revision to the appropriate provisions of the Agreement, including the Statement of Work, may be necessary. To the extent Motorola provides assistance to correct any issues caused by or arising out of the use of or failure to maintain Administrative User Credentials, Motorola will be entitled to bill Customer and Customer will pay Motorola on a time and materials basis for resolving the issue.

17.12. SURVIVAL OF TERMS. The following provisions will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason: Section 3.5 (Motorola Software); Section 3.6 (Non-Motorola Software); if any payment obligations exist, Sections 6.2 and 6.3 (Contract Price and Invoicing and Payment); Subsection 1015
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 16 10.8 (Disclaimer of Implied Warranties); Section 12 (Disputes); Section 15 (Limitation of Liability); and Section 16 (Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights); and all of the General provisions in Section 17.

17.13. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, including all Exhibits, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties regarding the subject matter of the Agreement and supersedes all previous agreements, proposals, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to this subject matter. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, and shall have the same legal force and effect as if the Parties had executed it as a single document. The Parties may sign in writing, or by electronic signature, including by email. An electronic signature, or a facsimile copy or computer image, such as a PDF or tiff image, of a signature, shall be treated as and shall have the same effect as an original signature.

Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 17 Exhibit A

MOTOROLA SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT
This Exhibit A Motorola Software License Agreement ("Agreement") is between Motorola Solutions, Inc., (“Motorola"), and ____Banning Police Department_______ (“Licensee”).

For good and valuable consideration, the parties agree as follows:

Section 1 DEFINITIONS

1.1 “Designated Products” means products provided by Motorola to Licensee with which or for which the Software and Documentation is licensed for use.

1.2 “Documentation” means product and software documentation that specifies technical and performance features and capabilities, and the user, operation and training manuals for the Software (including all physical or electronic media upon which such information is provided).

1.3 “Open Source Software” means software with either freely obtainable source code, license for modification, or permission for free distribution.

1.4 “Open Source Software License” means the terms or conditions under which the Open Source Software is licensed.

1.5 “Primary Agreement” means the agreement to which this exhibit is attached.

1.6 “Security Vulnerability” means a flaw or weakness in system security procedures, design, implementation, or internal controls that could be exercised (accidentally triggered or intentionally exploited) and result in a security breach such that data is compromised, manipulated or stolen or the system damaged.

1.7 “Software” (i) means proprietary software in object code format, and adaptations, translations, decompilations, disassemblies, emulations, or derivative works of such software; (ii) means any modifications, enhancements, new versions and new releases of the software provided by Motorola; and (iii) may contain one or more items of software owned by a third party supplier. The term "Software" does not include any third party software provided under separate license or third party software not licensable under the terms of this Agreement.

Section 2 SCOPE
Motorola and Licensee enter into this Agreement in connection with Motorola's delivery of certain proprietary software or products containing embedded or pre-loaded proprietary software, or both. This Agreement contains the terms and conditions of the license Motorola is providing to Licensee, and Licensee’s use of the proprietary software and affiliated documentation.

Section 3 GRANT OF LICENSE

3.1. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the payment of applicable license fees, Motorola grants to Licensee a personal, limited, non-transferable (except as permitted in Section 7) and nonexclusive license under Motorola’s copyrights and Confidential Information (as defined in the Primary Agreement) embodied in the Software to use the Software, in object code form, and the Documentation solely in connection with Licensee's use of the Designated Products. This Agreement does not grant any rights to source code.
1017
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 18 3.2. If the Software licensed under this Agreement contains or is derived from Open Source Software, the terms and conditions governing the use of such Open Source Software are in the Open Source Software Licenses of the copyright owner and not this Agreement. If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the Open Source Software Licenses governing Licensee’s use of the Open Source Software, the terms and conditions of the license grant of the applicable Open Source Software Licenses will take precedence over the license grants in this Agreement. If requested by Licensee, Motorola will use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) determine whether any Open Source Software is provided under this Agreement; and (ii) identify the Open Source Software (or specify where that license may be found).

3.3 TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, THAT THERE IS A SEPARATE LICENSE AGREEMENT PACKAGED

WITH, OR PROVIDED ELECTRONICALLY WITH, A PARTICULAR PRODUCT THAT BECOMES

EFFECTIVE ON AN ACT OF ACCEPTANCE BY THE END USER, THEN THAT AGREEMENT

SUPERSEDES THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT AS TO THE END USER OF EACH SUCH PRODUCT.

Section 4 LIMITATIONS ON USE

4.1. Licensee may use the Software only for Licensee's internal business purposes and only in accordance with the Documentation. Any other use of the Software is strictly prohibited. Without limiting the general nature of these restrictions, Licensee will not make the Software available for use by third parties on a "time sharing," "application service provider," or "service bureau" basis or for any other similar commercial rental or sharing arrangement.

4.2. Licensee will not, and will not allow or enable any third party to: (i) reverse engineer, disassemble, peel components, decompile, reprogram or otherwise reduce the Software or any portion to a human perceptible form or otherwise attempt to recreate the source code; (ii) modify, adapt, create derivative works of, or merge the Software; (iii) copy, reproduce, distribute, lend, or lease the Software or Documentation to any third party, grant any sublicense or other rights in the Software or Documentation to any third party, or take any action that would cause the Software or Documentation to be placed in the public domain; (iv) remove, or in any way alter or obscure, any copyright notice or other notice of Motorola's proprietary rights; (v) provide, copy, transmit, disclose, divulge or make the Software or Documentation available to, or permit the use of the Software by any third party or on any machine except as expressly authorized by this Agreement; or (vi) use, or permit the use of, the Software in a manner that would result in the production of a copy of the Software solely by activating a machine containing the Software. Licensee may make one copy of Software to be used solely for archival, back-up, or disaster recovery purposes; provided that Licensee may not operate that copy of the Software at the same time as the original Software is being operated. Licensee may make as many copies of the Documentation as it may reasonably require for the internal use of the Software.

4.3. Unless otherwise authorized by Motorola in writing, Licensee will not, and will not enable or allow any third party to: (i) install a licensed copy of the Software on more than one unit of a Designated Product; or (ii) copy onto or transfer Software installed in one unit of a Designated Product onto one other device.

Licensee may temporarily transfer Software installed on a Designated Product to another device if the Designated Product is inoperable or malfunctioning, if Licensee provides written notice to Motorola of the temporary transfer and identifies the device on which the Software is transferred. Temporary transfer of the Software to another device must be discontinued when the original Designated Product is returned to operation and the Software must be removed from the other device. Licensee must provide prompt written notice to Motorola at the time temporary transfer is discontinued.

4.4 Licensee will maintain, during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two years thereafter, accurate records relating to this license grant to verify compliance with this Agreement. Motorola or an independent third party (“Auditor”) may inspect Licensee’s premises, books and records, upon reasonable prior notice to Licensee, during Licensee’s normal business hours and subject to Licensee's facility and 1018
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 19 security regulations. Motorola is responsible for the payment of all expenses and costs of the Auditor. Any information obtained by Motorola and the Auditor will be kept in strict confidence by Motorola and the Auditor and used solely for the purpose of verifying Licensee's compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 5 OWNERSHIP AND TITLE
Motorola, its licensors, and its suppliers retain all of their proprietary rights in any form in and to the Software and Documentation, including, but not limited to, all rights in patents, patent applications, inventions, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, trade names, and other proprietary rights in or relating to the Software and Documentation (including any corrections, bug fixes, enhancements, updates, modifications, adaptations, translations, de-compilations, disassemblies, emulations to or derivative works from the Software or Documentation, whether made by Motorola or another party, or any improvements that result from Motorola’s processes or, provision of information services). No rights are granted to Licensee under this Agreement by implication, estoppel or otherwise, except for those rights which are expressly granted to Licensee in this Agreement. All intellectual property developed, originated, or prepared by Motorola in connection with providing the Software, Designated Products, Documentation or related services, remains vested exclusively in Motorola, and Licensee will not have any shared development or other intellectual property rights.

Section 6 LIMITED WARRANTY; DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

6.1. Unless otherwise stated in the Primary Agreement, the commencement date and the term of the Software warranty will be a period of ninety (90) days from Motorola's shipment of the Software (the "Warranty Period"). If Licensee is not in breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement, Motorola warrants that the unmodified Software, when used properly and in accordance with the Documentation and this Agreement, will be free from a reproducible defect that eliminates the functionality or successful operation of a feature critical to the primary functionality or successful operation of the Software. Whether a defect occurs will be determined by Motorola solely with reference to the Documentation. Motorola does not warrant that Licensee’s use of the Software or the Designated Products will be uninterrupted, errorfree, completely free of Security Vulnerabilities, or that the Software or the Designated Products will meet Licensee’s particular requirements. Motorola makes no representations or warranties with respect to any third party software included in the Software. Notwithstanding, any warranty provided by a copyright owner in its standard license terms will flow through to Licensee for third party software provided by Motorola.

6.2 Motorola’s sole obligation to Licensee and Licensee’s exclusive remedy under this warranty is to use reasonable efforts to remedy any material Software defect covered by this warranty. These efforts will involve either replacing the media or attempting to correct significant, demonstrable program or documentation errors or Security Vulnerabilities. If Motorola cannot correct the defect within a reasonable time, then at Motorola’s option, Motorola will replace the defective Software with functionally-equivalent Software, license to Licensee substitute Software which will accomplish the same objective, or terminate the license and refund the Licensee’s paid license fee.

6.3. Warranty claims are described in the Primary Agreement.

6.4. The express warranties set forth in this Section 6 are in lieu of, and Motorola disclaims, any and all other warranties (express or implied, oral or written) with respect to the Software or Documentation, including, without limitation, any and all implied warranties of condition, title, non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose or use by Licensee (whether or not Motorola knows, has reason to know, has been advised, or is otherwise aware of any such purpose or use), whether arising by law, by reason of custom or usage of trade, or by course of dealing. In addition, Motorola disclaims any warranty to any person other than Licensee with respect to the Software or Documentation.

Section 7 TRANSFERS
Licensee will not transfer the Software or Documentation to any third party without Motorola's prior written 1019
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 20 consent. Motorola’s consent may be withheld at its discretion and may be conditioned upon transferee paying all applicable license fees and agreeing to be bound by this Agreement. If the Designated Products are Motorola's radio products and Licensee transfers ownership of the Motorola radio products to a third party, Licensee may assign its right to use the Software (other than CPS and Motorola's FLASHport® software) which is embedded in or furnished for use with the radio products and the related Documentation; provided that Licensee transfers all copies of the Software and Documentation to the transferee, and Licensee and the transferee sign a transfer form to be provided by Motorola upon request, obligating the transferee to be bound by this Agreement.

Section 8 TERM AND TERMINATION

8.1 Licensee’s right to use the Software and Documentation will begin when the Primary Agreement is signed by both parties and will continue for the life of the Designated Products with which or for which the Software and Documentation have been provided by Motorola, unless Licensee breaches this Agreement, in which case this Agreement and Licensee's right to use the Software and Documentation may be terminated immediately upon notice by Motorola.

8.2 Within thirty (30) days after termination of this Agreement, Licensee must certify in writing to Motorola that all copies of the Software have been removed or deleted from the Designated Products and that all copies of the Software and Documentation have been returned to Motorola or destroyed by Licensee and are no longer in use by Licensee.

8.3 Licensee acknowledges that Motorola made a considerable investment of resources in the development, marketing, and distribution of the Software and Documentation and that Licensee's breach of this Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Motorola for which monetary damages would be inadequate. If Licensee breaches this Agreement, Motorola may terminate this Agreement and be entitled to all available remedies at law or in equity (including immediate injunctive relief and repossession of all non-embedded Software and associated Documentation unless Licensee is a Federal agency of the United States Government).

Section 9 Commercial Computer Software

9.1 This Section 9 only applies to U.S. Government end users. The Software, Documentation and updates are commercial items as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. Part 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “computer software documentation” as such terms are defined in 48 C.F.R. Part 252.227- 7014(a)(1) and 48 C.F.R. Part 252.227-7014(a)(5), and used in 48 C.F.R. Part 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. Part 227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. Part 12.212, 48 C.F.R. Part 252.227-7015, 48 C.F.R.

Part 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, 48 C.F.R. Part 52.227-19, and other relevant sections of the Code of Federal Regulations, as applicable, the Software, Documentation and Updates are distributed and licensed to U.S. Government end users: (i) only as commercial items, and (ii) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions contained herein.

9.2 If Licensee is licensing Software for end use by the United States Government or a United States Government agency, Licensee may transfer such Software license, but only if: (i) Licensee transfers all copies of such Software and Documentation to such United States Government entity or interim transferee, and (ii) Licensee has first obtained from the transferee (if applicable) and ultimate end user an enforceable end user license agreement containing restrictions substantially identical to the ones contained in this Agreement. Except as stated in the foregoing, Licensee and any transferee(s) authorized by this subsection

9.2 may not otherwise use or transfer or make available any Motorola software to any third party nor permit any party to do so.

Section 10 CONFIDENTIALITY
Licensee acknowledges that the Software and Documentation contain Motorola’s valuable proprietary and Confidential Information and are Motorola’s trade secrets, and that the provisions in the Primary Agreement 1020
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 21 concerning Confidential Information apply.

Section 11 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Limitation of Liability provision is described in the Primary Agreement.

Section 12 NOTICES
Notices are described in the Primary Agreement.

Section 13 GENERAL

13.1. COPYRIGHT NOTICES. The existence of a copyright notice on the Software will not be construed as an admission or presumption of publication of the Software or public disclosure of any trade secrets associated with the Software.

13.2. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Licensee acknowledges that the Software is subject to the laws and regulations of the United States and Licensee will comply with all applicable laws and regulations, including export laws and regulations of the United States. Licensee will not, without the prior authorization of Motorola and the appropriate governmental authority of the United States, in any form export or re-export, sell or resell, ship or reship, or divert, through direct or indirect means, any item or technical data or direct or indirect products sold or otherwise furnished to any person within any territory for which the United States Government or any of its agencies at the time of the action, requires an export license or other governmental approval. Violation of this provision is a material breach of this Agreement.

13.3 FUTURE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS. The Parties acknowledge and agree that this is an evolving technological area and therefore, laws and regulations regarding Services and use of Solution may change. Changes to existing Services or the Solution required to achieve regulatory compliance may be available for an additional fee. Any required changes may also impact the price for Services.

13.4. ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBCONTRACTING. Motorola may assign its rights or subcontract its obligations under this Agreement, or encumber or sell its rights in any Software, without prior notice to or consent of Licensee.

13.5. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the United States to the extent that they apply and otherwise by the internal substantive laws of the State to which the Software is shipped if Licensee is a sovereign government entity, or the internal substantive laws of the State of Illinois if Licensee is not a sovereign government entity. The terms of the U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods do not apply. In the event that the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act, any version of this Act, or a substantially similar law (collectively "UCITA") becomes applicable to a party's performance under this Agreement, UCITA does not govern any aspect of this Agreement or any license granted under this Agreement, or any of the parties' rights or obligations under this Agreement. The governing law will be that in effect prior to the applicability of UCITA.

13.6. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is entered into solely for the benefit of Motorola and Licensee. No third party has the right to make any claim or assert any right under this Agreement, and no third party is deemed a beneficiary of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any licensor or supplier of third party software included in the Software will be a direct and intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement.
1021
Lease Communication System and Services Agreement v.2023.05.24 22 13.7. SURVIVAL. Sections 4, 5, 6.4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 13 survive the termination of this Agreement.

13.8. ORDER OF PRECEDENCE. In the event of inconsistencies between this Exhibit and the Primary Agreement, the parties agree that this Exhibit prevails, only with respect to the specific subject matter of this Exhibit, and not the Primary Agreement or any other exhibit as it applies to any other subject matter.

13.9. SECURITY. Motorola uses reasonable means in the design and writing of its own Software and the acquisition of third party Software to limit Security Vulnerabilities. While no software can be guaranteed to be free from Security Vulnerabilities, if a Security Vulnerability is discovered, Motorola will take the steps set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement.

ATTACH TO THE SOLE SOURCE FORM
DETAILED JUSTIFICATION FOR SOLE SOURCE:
(widen text boxes as necessary)
The requestor shall clearly provide:
a. A detailed descrip?on of the type of contract to be established; b. A detailed descrip?on of services and/or commodi?es to be provided by the vendor; The 50 radios would replace the APX 7000 radios the Banning Police Department currently u?lizes that are now an unsupported model and out-of-date. The APX NEXT radio is the most up-to-date handheld radio available for police use and fills all of the needs of the Banning Police Department when it comes to a handheld radio.
c. An explana?on of why the recommended vendor is the only one capable of providing the required services and/or commodi?es and include back-up informa?on to support the jus?fica?on;
Motorola Solu?ons is the only vendor available to purchase the Motorola APX NEXT radios.

The Banning Police Department is currently on the Riverside County Public Safety Enterprise Communica?on (PSEC) System which is a Motorola back-end system.

This contract with Motorola is for the purchase of 50 new APX NEXT handheld radios and related accessories. Along with a five- year subscrip?on fee for services. 1030
d. The iden?ty of other sources that have been contacted and explain in detail why they cannot fulfill the City’s requirements;
The equipment being sought is a Motorola brand that cannot be fulfilled by another vendor.

Con?nuing to use Motorola radio products will allow the Banning Police Department to maintain interoperability with other agencies and the PSEC system. e. An explana?on of how the recommended vendor’s prices or fees compare to the general market and a? ach quotes for comparable services and supplies, if available (limited compe??on); This would be comparing unlike products as Motorola Solu?ons is the sole provider of Motorola products.

f. An explana?on of how the City would accomplish this par?cular task if the recommended vendor could not provide the product or service.

This would be a cri?cal blow to public safety and the safety of Banning Police Department personnel. Losing the availability of Motorola radios would risk losing the interoperability with other agencies in Riverside County and the PSEC system. Using Motorola Solu?ons radios allows the Banning Police Department to quickly connect with other agencies to react to cri?cal incidents.

Note: Valid Sole Source jus?fica?on requires strong technological or strong programma?c jus?fica?ons 1032

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Jim Steffens, Acting Electric Utility Director Jason Smith, Electric Utility Operations Manager
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-23, Approving the Sole-Sourced Emergency Site Clean-up, Damaged Equipment Removal, Environmental Site Remediation and Security Guard Services Due to a Vandalism Fire at the Electric Utility’s Alola Substation at an Updated Total Expense of $382,206.57
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-23.

BACKGROUND:

On October 24, 2023, Council approved Resolution 2023-170 for an estimated amount of $300,000 for the total cost of the damages caused by the Alola Substation fire. Although the remediation work was not completed at the time, staff brought forward Resolution 2023-170 to make City Council aware of the emergency expenditures and to get approval for an estimated amount of the total costs. The contaminated area was successfully contained within the property, however at a greater cost than the original $300,000 estimation. The final cost for GrayMar to remediate the site was $377,406.57.

Additionally, in the interest of public safety and to prevent further vandalism, Ava Security was hired to guard the substation until the remediation was completed. The cost for Ava Security was $4,800.00, therefore the actual total costs ended up being $382,206.57, which is $82,206.57 greater than the estimated cost of $300,000 approved in Resolution 2023-170. Staff therefore desires to advise City Council of the updated final costs and get approval of the updated final costs of $382,206.57.

JUSTIFICATION:

The City’s procurement policies and procedures allows for immediate purchases (Section 13 – Emergency Purchases) to prevent economic or other hardship to the City. In this case, immediate action was necessary to prevent further environmental contamination and potential safety hazards. Inclement weather was also a concern, as oil could possibly penetrate the stormwater system on Livingston Avenue resulting in more costs and greater environmental harm.

The area of soil contamination was much larger than originally thought, therefore the costs for GrayMar Environmental were greater than estimated in Resolution 2023-170.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total amount for environmental remediation and equipment removal services was $377,406.57.

Security services were $4,800.00, resulting in total costs of $382,206.57. These expenses are being paid out of Electric Fund 670-7000.
1033
The City is currently in the claims process with PERMA. If the claim is approved by PERMA then the fiscal impact may be reduced to only the deductible of $10,000.00.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Adopt Resolution 2024-23 as recommended.

2. Adopt Resolution 2024-23 with modifications.

3. Do not approve Resolution 2024-23 and provide alternative direction to staff.

RESOLUTION 2024-23

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BANNING, CALIFORNIA,

APPROVING THE SOLE-SOURCED EMERGENCY SITE CLEAN-UP, DAMAGED

EQUIPMENT REMOVAL, ENVIRONMENTAL SITE REMEDIATION AND SECURITY GUARD SERVICES DUE TO A VANDALISM FIRE AT THE ELECTRIC UTILITY’S ALOLA SUBSTATION AT AN UPDATED TOTAL EXPENSE OF $382,206.57
WHEREAS, City of Banning owns and operates a retail electrical energy distribution system which includes multiple substations; and
WHEREAS, on September 26, 2023, the Alola Substation was vandalized and set on fire; and
WHEREAS, due to the fire, cooling oil in one of the transformers boiled out onto the ground causing contamination to the surrounding soil; and
WHEREAS, on September 26, 2023, Electric Utility staff contracted with GrayMar Environmental to clean up and remediate the site expeditiously to contain the contamination to as small of an area as possible; and
WHEREAS, on September 30, 2023, the Administrative Services Department / Electric Utility contracted with Ava Security to guard the Alola Substation for public safety and to prevent further vandalism; and
WHEREAS, on October 24, 2023, City Council adopted Resolution 2023-170 which advised City Council of the emergency expenditures that were ongoing, and approved an estimated cost amount of $300,000; and
WHEREAS, the area of soil contamination was much larger than initially thought, therefore the costs for GrayMar Environmental turned out to be greater than estimated in Resolution 2023- 170. The final costs for GrayMar were $377,406.57. Adding in the $4,800 for Ava Security, the total costs were $382,206.57; and
WHEREAS, because the final costs are greater than the $300,000 estimate approved in Resolution 2023-170, staff desires to advise City Council of the updated final costs and ratify the updated final costs of $382,206.57.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Banning as follows:

SECTION 1. The City Council hereby approves the final costs of $382,206.57 for the emergency site clean-up, damaged equipment removal, environmental site remediation, and security costs due to the vandalism fire at the Electric Utility’s Alola Substation.

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Jim Steffens, Acting Electric Utility Director MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-24, Approving the "Amended and Restated City of Banning Fee Agreement with Thompson Coburn LLP For Special Counsel Services” for an 8% Annual Increase in Hourly Legal Rates and to Update, Restate, and Amend Obsolete Provisions in the Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-24.

BACKGROUND:

Beginning in the early 1990’s the City of Banning Electric Utility (Utility), along with the Cities of Anaheim, Azusa, Colton and Riverside began receiving services from Thompson Coburn through a contract with the Power Agency of California (“PAC”) a joint powers agency created to facilitate procurement of utility related services for the five referenced cities. The cities agreed to allocate costs for this contract based on each utility’s relative retail load. This was a very beneficial relationship, especially for the three small cities, which received the full benefit of legal representation, but for a very small percentage of the total cost, which for Banning was only 2.5%.

In 2001, PAC was placed into an “inactive” status and all contracts and services administered through PAC had to be processed directly through the individual cities. However, the cities agreed to continue with the established cost allocation methodology for the Thompson Coburn legal services agreement. In 2005, the City of Pasadena asked to join the five cities in receiving legal representation for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) matters from Thompson Coburn, and the cost allocation was updated to include Pasadena’s retail load, which resulted in Banning’s allocation being reduced from 2.5% to 2.38%. This group of cities is now referred to as the “Six Cities” in all related FERC and CAISO filings, as well as other pertinent group advocacy.

Thompson Coburn provides legal representation on FERC and CAISO related issues, which includes but is not limited to: Transmission, Generation, Wholesale Electricity Markets, and Reliability Standards Compliance. In Fiscal Year 2023, Banning’s total Thompson Coburn expenses amounted to only $40,243, but they have averaged about $60,000 per year over the last ten years. If Banning were to obtain these services by itself, instead of through the joint Six Cities agreement, it would easily cost up to 20 times that amount. As previously noted, the Six Cities relationship is very beneficial for the City of Banning, and it is essential that the Utility retain legal services for matters pertaining to the FERC and the CAISO, in relation to the Utility’s operation.

Occasionally Thompson Coburn provides services specifically for the Utility, in which case the Utility 1077
pays for the full amount of the services. But these services are minimal, and do not occur very frequently.

Thompson Coburn’s services also provide monetary value to the Utility. For example, Thompson Coburn participates and intervenes on behalf of the Six Cities in CAISO Transmission Rate Filing cases and has frequently been successful in reducing the rates that other transmission owners receive for turning their transmission facilities over to the operational control of the CAISO. These reduced transmission owner rates result in a reduced CAISO Transmission Access Charge (TAC). The TAC is a charge that the Utility must pay the CAISO for use of the CAISO grid. In Fiscal Year 2023 the Utility’s TAC expense was $2.5 million. If not for Thompson Coburn’s successful intervention in CAISO Transmission Rate cases on behalf of the Six Cities over the last twenty years, the Utility’s TAC expenses would be much higher.

Thompson Coburn has provided notice to the Utility of an increase to its hourly rates, effective January 1, 2024, which are reflected in the Amended Agreement. The rate increases average approximately 8% from the 2023 rates. While staff was reviewing the current agreement, it became clear that over the years the exhibits to the agreement had been updated, but that the body of the agreement hadn’t been updated in a long time. For example, the introductory “Whereas” portion of the agreement stopped at when the group was the Five Cities, and did not mention the City of Pasadena joining the group in 2005.

Since Pasadena and the Six Cities are mentioned in the exhibits, there was a disconnect on how the Five Cities became the Six Cities. Therefore, electric staff worked with Purchasing and with Thompson Coburn to update the agreement. The current agreement is attached for reference.

The Amended Agreement, similar to the current agreement, allows the Utility to discharge Thompson Coburn at any time. Alternatively, the Amended Agreement will terminate five years following completion of any matter referred to Thompson Coburn.

JUSTIFICATION:

Approval of Resolution 2024-24 would allow the Utility to continue to obtain legal services for matters pertaining to FERC and CAISO in relation to the Utility’s operation, which includes: Transmission, Generation, Wholesale Electric Markets, and Reliability Standards Compliance. The cost-sharing agreement between the Six Cities is very beneficial to the Utility, as the Utility is responsible for only

2.38% of the legal services performed on behalf of the Six Cities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Banning’s share of the cost for services provided by Thompson Coburn in FY 2023 totaled $40,243.

However, Banning’s cost for these legal services has averaged approximately $60,000 per year over the last ten years. The proposed rate increase is estimated to raise the Utility’s annual expense by approximately $4,000. Funds are budgeted each year in account 670-7010-473-33.02 to cover this expense.

ALTERNATIVES:

1. Adopt Resolution 2024-24 as recommended.

2. Adopt Resolution 2024-24 with modifications.

3. Do not approve Resolution 2024-24, which would disqualify the Utility from being a member of the Six Cities and from receiving further FERC and CAISO legal representation from Thompson Coburn.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BANNING, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE “AMENDED AND RESTATED CITY OF BANNING FEE AGREEMENT WITH THOMPSON COBURN LLP FOR SPECIAL COUNSEL SERVICES” FOR AN 8% ANNUAL

INCREASE IN HOURLY LEGAL RATES AND TO UPDATE, RESTATE, AND AMEND

OBSOLETE PROVISIONS IN THE AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, the City of Banning (City) owns and operates a Municipal Electric Utility (Utility); and
WHEREAS, it is essential that the Utility retain legal services for matters pertaining to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the California Independent System Operator (CAISO); and
WHEREAS, the Utility, along with the Cities of Anaheim, Azusa, Colton, Pasadena and Riverside (the “Six Cities”) receive legal services from Thompson Coburn, LLP, and the cities have agreed to allocate costs for these services based on each utility’s relative retail electric load, which for Banning equates to approximately 2.38% of the related expense; and WHEREAS, the Utility received notification from Thompson Coburn that they would have an eight percent increase to their hourly rate schedule effective January 1, 2024, and the proposed increase rates are indicated in the “Amended and Restated City of Banning Fee Agreement with Thompson Coburn LLP for Special Counsel Services” (Amended Agreement), attached herein as Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, the Utility’s share of the Thompson Coburn expenses has averaged less than $60,000 per year during the last ten years, and the proposed rate increase is expected to raise the Utility’s annual expense by approximately $4,000; and WHEREAS, while reviewing the current agreement that is in place with Thompson Coburn, staff noted that some of the language was incomplete or outdated. Therefore, staff worked with Thompson Coburn and with City purchasing staff to update, restate, and amend the language of the agreement. These updates are reflected in the Amended Agreement. The current agreement is attached herein for reference as Exhibit B; and WHEREAS, the Utility wishes to continue obtaining legal services from Thompson Coburn, LLP through the Amended Agreement; and
WHEREAS, funds to cover the expenses for the Amended Agreement are available in the Electric Fund account 670-7010-473-33.02.

NOW, THEREFORE, FOR AND IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PROMISES,

COVENANTS, AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED HEREIN, IT IS AGREED BY AND BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO AS FOLLOWS:
1084

1. SCOPE OF WORK AND DUTIES.

A. The City hereby hires Firm as its Special Counsel to render legal services under the direction of the City Manager, or his or her designee. Representation shall include, but not necessarily be limited to, legal services in connection with the City public electric utility entity and Federal law.

B. The services shall be performed as directed by the City Manager or his or her designee, and Firm shall keep City informed as to the progress and status of all pending matters.

C. Firm is expected to manage, control, and oversee the delivery of legal services in a competent, professional, and cost-effective manner. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, any legal services can only be authorized by the City Manager or his or her designee.

D. City may request the services of particular members of the Firm, and Firm shall use its best efforts to make such members available to provide such services.

2. CITY DUTIES.

City agrees to provide such information, assistance, cooperation, and access to books, records, and other information, as is necessary for Firm to effectively render its professional services under this Amended Agreement. City further agrees to abide by this Amended Agreement, and to timely pay Firm’s bills for fees, costs, and expenses.

3. PERSONNEL.

Firm will provide the following attorneys to render legal services hereunder:

Margaret McNaul: Special Counsel
Bonnie Blair: Assistant Counsel
Rebecca Shelton: Assistant Counsel
Firm will exercise its discretion to utilize whichever attorney(s) (and staff) it determines to be best suited to its rendition of legal services under this Agreement, consistent with the competent and efficient rendering of legal services, and with a view toward rendering such services in an economically efficient manner.
1085

4. COMPENSATION.

Firm’s fees will be charged on an hourly basis for all time actually expended, and such fees are generally billed monthly with payment due within thirty (30) days after the date of the bill. The City agrees to pay, and Firm agrees to accept, as full compensation for its services, compensation at the hourly rates for the positions shown on Exhibit A attached hereto and incorporated by this reference herein, as may be revised from time to time in accordance with this Amended Agreement.

A. Allocation of Costs. Firm provides legal services to the City on a Cityspecific basis and to the City and other municipal electric systems on a collective basis. Legal costs for services provided on a collective basis are generally allocated on the basis shown in Exhibit B attached hereto and incorporated by this reference, subject to revision from time to time.

Accordingly, City will not be charged more than the percentages specified in Exhibit B, as they may be adjusted with the agreement of City, for services provided on a collective basis or the City Manager or his or her designee expressly approves that the services are exclusively allocated to City or allocated to the City based upon a revised percentage allocation. This approval must be expressed in writing prior to the performance of the services.

B. Charges. The foregoing arrangement will remain in effect for calendar year 2024. However, the hourly rates of the attorneys at Firm are reviewed annually and, when appropriate, adjusted to reflect increases in expertise as well as other appropriate factors. Firm may request increases of the hourly rates shown on Exhibit A from time to time by at least ninety (90) days written notice to City. Such increases shall not apply except as provided here, and upon the approval of the City. Proposed increases will be deemed approved by the City unless the City notifies the Firm in writing within ninety (90) days of notification of a proposed change to the Firm’s hourly rates.

5. COSTS AND OTHER CHARGES.

Firm may incur various costs and expenses in rendering the legal services required by this Amended Agreement. City agrees to reimburse Firm for these costs and expenses in addition to the hourly fees for legal services. The costs and expenses referred to herein include, but are not limited to, such expenses as printing and copying costs, filing fees, costs of transcripts, and costs of travel approved by the City.

Firm may determine it necessary or appropriate to use one or more outside investigators, consultants, or experts in rendering the legal services required (particularly if a matter goes into litigation). City will be responsible for paying such fees and charges. Firm will not, however, retain the services of any outside investigators, consultants, or experts without the 1086
prior agreement of City. Firm will select any investigators, consultants, or experts to be hired only after consultation with City.

At present, Firm has contracted for use of consulting services by GDS Associates, Inc. (“GDS”) to assist in matters relating to FERC transmission rate-related proceedings. The City consents to the use of GDS on an ongoing basis for this purpose.

6. STATEMENTS.

Firm shall submit monthly (or on such other basis as Firm and City may agree) itemized invoices to City which document the hours worked, the persons performing the work, the matters or assignments on which the work was performed, and the applicable hourly rates. An itemization of reimbursable expenses claimed by Firm shall be included in the monthly invoice.

Supporting receipts shall be provided to City upon request.

7. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.

Firm shall perform all legal services required under this Amended Agreement as an independent contractor of City, and shall remain, at all times as to City, a wholly independent contractor with only such obligations as are required under this Amended Agreement. Neither City, nor any of its employees, shall have any control over the manner, mode, or means by which Firm, its agents or employees, render the legal services required under this Amended Agreement, except as otherwise set forth. City shall have no voice in the selection, discharge, supervision or control of Firm's employees, servants, representatives, or agents, or in fixing their number, compensation, or hours of service.

8. INSURANCE.

Firm shall procure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, comprehensive general liability and property damage insurance, including automobile and excess liability insurance, and professional liability insurance against all claims for injuries against persons or damages to property resulting from Firm’s negligent acts or omissions arising out of or related to Firm’s performance under this Amended Agreement. The minimum amount of such insurance shall be Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00). Firm shall also carry Workers' Compensation Insurance in accordance with applicable workers' compensation laws. The insurance required hereunder shall be kept in effect during the term of this Amended Agreement and shall not be subject to reduction in coverage below the limits established herein, nor cancellation, nor termination without thirty (30) days' prior written notice by registered letter to City. A certificate evidencing the foregoing shall be delivered to City upon request of City. 1087

9. COVENANT AGAINST DISCRIMINATION.

Firm covenants that, by and for itself, its heirs, executors, assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there shall be no discrimination against, or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, national origin, or ancestry in the performance of this Amended Agreement. Firm shall take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, national origin, or ancestry.

10. TERM, DISCHARGE AND WITHDRAWAL.

The term of this Amended Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date, subject to modification of fees and allocation percentages as provided in Sections 4 and 5, and shall expire in accordance with the Termination provision set forth herein, or five years following completion of the last matter referred by the City to Firm, whichever occurs earlier.

City may discharge Firm at any time. The Special Counsel shall not be deemed an employee of City and shall have no right to hearing or notice and may be discharged upon written notification by City. Firm may withdraw from City’s representation at any time to the extent permitted by law and the Rules of Professional Conduct, upon at least sixty (60) days' notice to City.

In the event of such discharge or withdrawal, City shall pay Firm professional fees and costs, in accordance with this Amended Agreement, for all work done (and costs incurred) through the date of cessation of legal representation. City agrees to execute, upon request, a stipulation in such form as to permit Firm to withdraw as City's attorneys of record in any legal action then pending. Firm shall deliver all documents and records of City to City, or to counsel designated by City, and assist to the fullest extent possible in the orderly transition of all pending matters to City's new counsel.

11. CONFLICTS.

Firm has no present or contemplated employment which is adverse to the City. Firm agrees that it shall not represent clients in matters involving litigation or arbitrary proceedings against the City. However, Firm may have past and present clients or may have future clients, which, from time to time, may have interests adverse to City in non-litigation matters, and Firm reserves the right to represent such clients in these matters as long as the matter is not connected with its representation of the City.

If a potential conflict of interest arises in Firm’s representation of two clients, if such conflict is only speculative or minor, Firm shall seek waivers from each client with regards 1088
to such representation. However, if real conflicts exist, Firm would withdraw from representing either client in the matter and assist them in obtaining outside special counsel.

12. GOVERNING LAW.

Governing Law. This Amended Agreement shall be governed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

13. MODIFICATION.

This Amended Agreement can only be changed, modified, amended, supplemented, or rescinded in a separate writing signed by all parties.

14. WAIVERS.

A waiver of any provision of this Amended Agreement must be in writing. Failure to insist upon strict performance of any provision, right, duty, or obligation in this Amended Agreement is not a waiver of the right to future enforcement of that provision, right, duty, or obligation, nor any other provision, right, duty, or obligation.

15. INDEMNIFICATION.

Firm shall indemnify the City for any liabilities or losses incurred by the City or its agents due to Firm’s fault arising out of any work performed by Firm for the City. This is intended to ensure Firm is accountable to the City for providing competent and professional legal services without making Firm the City’s insurer for liabilities incurred by the City due to no fault of Firm.

16. SEVERABILITY.

If any of the provisions of this Amended Agreement are found to be unenforceable, those provisions shall be reformed to prevent the unenforceable result in a manner that best preserves the original intent of the provision to the fullest extent possible, and all other provisions of this Amended Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

17. LEGAL NOTICES.

Notices relating to this Amended Agreement must be in writing and sent to the physical addresses set forth below. A party may change its address for notices by giving notice as required by this provision. Written notice will be considered effective: (a) the day it is personally delivered or actually received; (b) five business days after deposit with the United States Post 1089

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Carla Young, Business Support Manager
Jim Steffens, Interim Electric Utility Director
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-26, Approving SATEC ExpertPower Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:

City staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-26.

BACKGROUND:

In June of 2016, City staff presented, discussed, and the City Council adopted, Resolution 2016-29 for $2,350,000, authorizing software modifications and the purchasing of meters and lock rings for implementation of a “Smart Grid Project.” The staff report provided background and justification for the automated meter reading Project, including improved customer service, real-time data, rate design and development, theft and outage detection, and remote connection and disconnection of electrical energy services.

To date, we are complete with the implementation of the AMI project but we do have meter communication problems. These are Itron issues and being addressed by Itron and do not fall under the parameters of SATEC. Staff have been replacing the meters in conjunction with customers’ billing cycles for ease of billing.

In October of 2018, City staff presented, discussed and the City Council adopted, Resolution 2018-129 authorizing the Automated Meter Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) phase of the “Smart Grid Project” in the amount of $450,000. With this phase approved, staff began negotiation of the Master Sales Agreement and Scope of Work with Itron. During this time, staff was informed of SATEC Data Analytics software package and determined the additional customer service, utility billing and engineering benefits would be a better option for the data analytics needs of the Electric Utility. The implementation of using SATEC Data Analytics has enabled Electric Utility Staff to maximize these available benefits and features while the infrastructure deployment is being finalized with Itron.

In August of 2019, City Council adopted Resolution 2019-111 authorizing the implementation software SATEC’s package. Staff recommended the SATEC data analytics after reviewing their package and comparing it to added analytics cost and features from Itron. This addition to the previously approved analytics items offered by Itron. With SATEC staff is able to customize and prioritize reports on demand as opposed to requesting reports and awaiting delivery. Furthermore, staff has been able to utilize most of the improved features at the implementation of the data analytics software rather than wait for full deployment of the AMI infrastructure.

In August of 2023, City Council adopted Resolution 2023-137 authorizing the continued ExpertPower 1103
software as a service package with SATEC for meter data analytics and cloud storage for a term of one year. This one year term was to move the contract period into a perpetual schedule of software maintenance.

JUSTIFICATION:

SATEC’s Data Analytics were more cost effective than Itron’s Data Analytics, hence staff recommended and Council approved this implementation. Staff intends for this to be a perpetual agreement until the City deems these services no longer meet the needs of the Utility.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost of the annual maintenance for the SATEC Data Analytics and cloud services software will be billed at a rate of $.45 per endpoint annually with a cost escalator of the lesser of five percent (5%) or Consumer Price Index (CPI). Funds are currently budgeted and will continue to be budgeted annually in the Electric Operating Fund 670.

Year Estimated Amount
2024/2025 $79,115
2025/2026 $83,071
2026/2027 $87,225
2027/2028 $91,586
2028/2029 $96,165
ALTERNATIVES:

1. Adopt Resolution 2023-26 as recommended.

2. Adopt Resolution 2023-26 with modifications.

3. Do not approve Resolution 2023-26 resulting in staff seeking alternate meter data management software. This will adversely affect the electric utility’s ability to bill customers for their energy usage.

The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

11.1 Meaning of Confidential Information. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean all information and documentation of a party that: (a) has been marked “confidential” or with words of similar meaning, at the time of disclosure by such party; (b) if disclosed orally or not marked “confidential” or with words of similar meaning, was subsequently summarized in writing by the disclosing party and marked “confidential” or with words of similar meaning; and, (c) should reasonably be recognized as confidential information of the disclosing party.

The parties agree to hold all Confidential Information in strict confidence and not to copy, reproduce, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of, give or disclose such Confidential Information to third parties other than employees, agents, or subcontractors of a party who have a need to know in connection with this Agreement or to use such Confidential Information for any purposes whatsoever other than the performance of this Agreement, or as required by law including the California Public Records Act, subpoena, or court order.

11.4 Remedies for Breach of Obligation of Confidentiality. Each party acknowledges that breach of its obligation of confidentiality may give rise to irreparable injury to the other party, which damage may be inadequately compensable in the form of monetary damages.

Accordingly, a party may seek and obtain injunctive relief against the breach or threatened breach of the foregoing undertakings, in addition to any other legal remedies which may be available, to include, in the case of City, at the sole election of City, the immediate termination, without liability to City, of this Agreement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Service Provider shall indemnify, defend and hold each of the Indemnitees free and harmless, and pay reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, with respect to any and all Claims to the extent arising out of, related to, or incurred in connection with any destruction, or unauthorized access to, use, or theft of City Data (collectively, “cyber theft”) provided, however, that Service Provider’s liability for cyber theft shall be limited to the cyber liability insurance policy limits set forth in this Agreement.

14.2 Proprietary Rights Indemnification. Service Provider agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Indemnitees from and against any and all Claims, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses incidental thereto, which may be suffered by, incurred by, accrued against, charged to, or recoverable from any Indemnitee, by reason of any Claim arising out of or relating to the Services allegedly or actually infringing or misappropriating any United States or foreign patent, copyright, trade secret, trademark, or other proprietary right.

14.3 Indemnification Procedures. Promptly after receipt by City of a threat, notice, or filing of any Claim against an Indemnitee, City shall give notice thereof to Service Provider, provided that failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Service Provider of any liability it may have to the Indemnitee except to the extent that Service Provider demonstrates that the defense of the Claim is prejudiced thereby. Service Provider shall have sole control of the defense and of all negotiations for settlement of a Claim and City shall not independently defend or respond to a Claim; provided, however, that: (a) City may defend or respond to a Claim, at Service Provider’s expense, if City’s counsel determines, in its sole discretion, that such defense or response is necessary to preclude a default judgment from being entered against an Indemnitee; and, (b) City shall have the right, at its own expense, to monitor Service Provider’s defense of a Claim. At Service Provider’s request, City shall reasonably cooperate with Service Provider in defending against or settling a Claim; provided, however, that Service Provider shall reimburse City for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by City (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in providing such cooperation.

15.1 Relationship between City and Service Provider. Service Provider represents and warrants that it is an independent contractor with no authority to contract for City or in any way to bind or to commit City to any agreement of any kind or to assume any liabilities of any nature in the name of or on behalf of City. Under no circumstances shall Service Provider, or any of its staff, if any, hold itself out as or be considered an agent employee, joint venture, or partner of City. In recognition of Service Provider’s status as an independent contractor, City shall carry no Workers’ Compensation insurance or any health or accident insurance to cover Service Provider or Service Provider’s agents or staff, if any. City shall not pay any contributions to Social Security, unemployment insurance, federal or state withholding taxes, any other applicable taxes whether federal, state, or local, nor provide any other contributions or benefits which might be expected in an employer-employee relationship. Neither Service Provider nor its staff, if any, shall be eligible for, participate in, or accrue any direct or indirect benefit under any other compensation, benefit, or pension plan of City.

15.2 Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the federal laws of the United States of America. Service Provider hereby consents and submits to the jurisdiction and forum of the state and federal courts in the County of Riverside, State of California, without regard for change of venue laws, in all questions and controversies arising out of this Agreement.

of the delayed party. However, the delayed party shall use its best efforts to minimize the delays caused by any such event beyond its reasonable control. Where Service Provider fails to use its best efforts to minimize such delays, the delays shall be included in the determination of Service Level achievement. The delayed party must notify the other party promptly upon the occurrence of any such event, or performance by the delayed party will not be considered excused pursuant to this Section, and inform the other party of its plans to resume performance.

15.8 No Waiver. The failure of either party at any time to require performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect that party’s right to enforce such provisions, nor shall the waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement be taken or held to be a waiver of any further breach of the same provision.

15.9 Notices. Any notice given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be given by personal service or by United States certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid to the addresses appearing at the end of this Agreement, or as changed through written notice to the other party. Notice given by personal service shall be deemed effective on the date it is delivered to the addressee, and notice mailed shall be deemed effective on the third day following its placement in the mail addressed to the addressee.

15.10 Assignment of Agreement. This Agreement and the obligations of Service Provider hereunder are personal to Service Provider. Neither Service Provider nor any successor, receiver, or assignee of Service Provider shall directly or indirectly assign this Agreement or the rights or duties created by this Agreement, whether such assignment is effected in connection with a sale of Service Provider’s assets or stock or through merger, an insolvency proceeding or otherwise, without the prior written consent of City. In the case of an assignment by Service Provider, Service Provider represents and warrants that it has all requisite rights and power to transfer any agreements or other rights with third-parties whose software is incorporated into the Services or who are necessary for the performance and use of the Services. Service Provider shall not subcontract performance of any of the Services without City’s prior, written, consent. Use of third parties for cloud based storage in compliance with this Agreement shall not be deemed “subcontracting.”

15.11 Time is of the Essence. Time is of the essence in every provision of this Agreement in which time for performance is a factor.

-17-
same Agreement. The parties agree that a facsimile signature may substitute for and have the same legal effect as the original signature.

(Calculated from $0.45 per month, per device = $0.45 x 12 months = $5.40 per year per device) Example: City of Banning Electric Utility had 14,651 Devices as of January 20, 2024 Example calculation: $5.40 x 14,651 = $79,115.40 Annual License

3. Licensed Device Quantity:

Service Provider will provide a report to City, on an annual basis, pertaining to the quantity of Devices in use as of the end of the 10th month of the Annual License Period, denoting the quantity of Devices in use.

City will have 60 days to refute the quantity.

Service Provider will Invoice the next Annual License period based on the quantity of Devices.

4. Significant License Changes during the Annual License Period:

In the event of a significant variance in quantity of Devices during the Annual License period, where the quantity of Devices increases or decreases by more than 10%, either City or Service Provider may request a modification to the Annual License amount by re-calculating using the current quantity of Devices and pro-rating the remaining license period accordingly.

5. Definition of Device in Expertpower:

A Device is defined as a single metering data device, whether logical or physical, consisting of an energy or volumetric reading of a commodity such as electricity, water, or gas. Typical devices used by the City are iTRON electrical power meters. A Device may be further defined as a single electrical meter, consisting of kWh, kVARh, kVAh, and related electrical parameters such as Volts, Amps, Watts, VARs, VA, and Frequency. A Device may also be a Virtual Meter, whereas a logical association by additive/subtractive/complex formula’s representing one or more physical or other virtual meters. 1128

An example of additional devices include if the City adds Virtual Devices to represent Transformers, or add Service Provider electrical power quality meters, or similar data driven objects to Expertpower, such as for purposes of Transformer analytics, the quantity of Devices that need to be licensed will increase. The City should take into account the probability of future iTRON meters as well as quantity of distribution transformers when budgeting for future software licenses. 1129

CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Stacy Bouslog, Customer Service Manager
Lincoln Bogard, Administrative Services Director
MEETING DATE: February 13, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-28, Approving an InfoSend Master Service Agreement to Provide Data-Processing, Printing, and Mailing Services for Utility Billing
RECOMMENDATION:

City staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2024-28, renewing a contract with InfoSend with an initial 3-year term and two (2) consecutive (1) year term renewal options with InfoSend for data-processing, printing, and mailing services related to Utility Billing and community outreach.

BACKGROUND:

Since August of 2012, the utility billing division has utilized InfoSend to produce a variety of mailings on behalf of the City, including utility bills, reminder notices, announcements, rate change advisories, water quality program notices, awareness/education campaign notices, final bills and penalties/collections notices. InfoSend services include paper bill processing, printing, and entire mailing process, along with address validation for Presorted First Class rates, bar coding, printing, folding, envelope stuffing and postage for every item.

InfoSend pays the cost of postage for mailing all bills and notices upfront and then passes this cost to the City in their invoicing, with no mark-up to the City. The City is responsible for this postage, regardless of the vendor providing the printing and support services. The postage costs related to this contract are exempt from Procurement and Council Approval per the City's Purchasing Policy B-30, Section 3-105 (6). Postage costs have been projected over the five (5) year term with allowances for possible cost increase from the United States Post Office.

JUSTIFICATION:

On an annual basis, InfoSend produces and mails approximately 185,000 bills (Utility and Delinquent bills) and other notices on behalf of the City, as depicted in the chart below. Without the expertise of InfoSend, the City would not be able to produce, assemble and mail the current volume of utility bills and notices in-house. To perform this task in-house would require expensive machinery to print, stuff, seal, postage pre-sorting software and staff time, which is not cost effective in today’s environment, while services such as InfoSend exist.

The City has been utilizing the services of InfoSend for fourteen years and has been very pleased with the excellent service they provided during this time. InfoSend is also located in Southern California, which results in City residents receiving their bills within a few days. Previously, the City had utilized the services of a different provider, located out of state, and resulted in unsatisfactory results. In order to maintain current business processes, consistency and quality of service, City staff would like to renew 1130
the contract with InfoSend by executing an updated contract as of 2024, per the Recommendation above.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funds for this contract during FY 2023-24 time-period have been allocated and approved within the FY 2023-24 budget. The anticipated expenses in the chart below through 11/2028, will be requested during future City budget cycles, which includes anticipated Proposition 218 noticing requirements. This five (5) year contract not to exceed $456,812.00 (postage does not require approval (reference: B-30 Policy Section 3-105(6)) for ease of understanding is included below).
