CITY OF BANNING

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Laurie Sampson, Assistant City Manager
Doug Schulze, City Manager
MEETING DATE: July 9, 2024
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution 2024-118, Rescinding its Adoption of Resolution 2024-66, and Approving an Office Lease with Riverside County on Behalf of the Emergency Management Department for Office Space within the Armory Located at 2041 W. Nicolet St. to be used by the Radio Amateur Emergency Service (RACES)
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 2024-118.

BACKGROUND:

RACES stands for “Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service” a protocol created by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Many government agencies across the county train their Auxiliary Communications Service volunteers using RACES protocol. Amateur Radio Operators, also known as Ham Radio Operators, are an important component in an Emergency Communication Plan. The Radios will still operate without cell towers and phone lines.

JUSTIFICATION:

The Pass Area RACES organization is highly trained and is an integral part of the Emergency Response Plan should an emergency occur. The Armory has been designated as the Emergency Operations Command (EOC) and having RACES located in the building will ensure any emergency operation is conducted efficiently.

On May 14, 2024, the Council adopted Resolution 2024-66, approving an Office Lease Agreement with Riverside County Emergency Management Services. RACES provides a public benefit and Riverside County has requested the $100 per month utility charge included on page 6, paragraph 10, be waived.

City staff have deemed this an acceptable request.

FISCAL IMPACT:

RACES will pay $1 per year for a total of three years, with an option to renew. They will no longer be required to contribute to the utilities of the Armory $100 per month.

ALTERNATIVES:

The Pass Area RACES groups have used several locations to train and store their equipment. None have worked out long term. As the Armory is now our designated Emergency Operations Center, housing RACES there is the best solution to the needs of RACES and the City. If RACES must find another location it would impede communications in the event of an emergency. 322

A CASp can inspect the subject premises and determine whether they comply with all of the applicable construction-related accessibility standards under state law. Although state law does not require a CASp inspection of the subject premises, a commercial property owner or lessor may not prohibit Tenant or a tenant from obtaining a CASp inspection of the subject premises for the occupancy or potential occupancy of Tenant or a tenant, if requested by Tenant or a tenant.

The parties must mutually agree on the arrangements for the time and manner of the CASp inspection, the payment of the fee for the CASp inspection, and the cost of making any repairs necessary to correct violations of construction-related accessibility standards within the subject premises.

Tenant agrees that neither Landlord nor any one acting on Landlord’s behalf has made any representation or warranty of any kind or nature whatsoever respecting the condition of the Premises, their suitability for Tenant’s use, or any other matter relating to the Premises (including, without limitation, the environmental condition of the Premises) or this Lease, and Tenant agrees that it is leasing the Premises in their “AS-IS CONDITION AND WITH ALL FAULTS.”

6. Maintenance.
(a) Tenant agrees that it will, at its sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises and all portions thereof in a good, clean, and safe condition and state of repair. Tenant agrees that 326

7. Insurance.
(a) Throughout the term of this Lease, Tenant shall pay for and maintain in full force and effect all policies of insurance required hereunder with an insurance company(ies) either (i) admitted by the California Insurance Commissioner to do business in the State of California and rated not less than “A-VII” in Best’s Insurance Rating Guide, or (ii) authorized by the City Manager or his/her designee at any time and in his/her sole discretion, including Tenant’s selfinsurance program. The following policies of insurance or their equivalent as part of a program(s) of self-insurance acceptable to both parties, are required:
(i) Commercial general liability insurance which shall be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office (ISO) form CG 00 01 and shall include insurance for “bodily injury” and “property damage,” including premises and operation, completed operations, and contractual liability (including, without limitation, indemnity obligations under this Lease) with limits of liability of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence and Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) general aggregate for bodily injury and property damage.

(iii) Workers’ compensation insurance as required under the California Labor Code.
(iv) Property insurance against all risks of loss to any tenant improvements or betterments, at full replacement cost with no coinsurance penalty provision. (b) In the event Tenant purchases an Umbrella or Excess insurance policy(ies) to meet the minimum limits of insurance set forth above, this insurance policy(ies) shall “follow form” and afford no less coverage than the primary insurance policy(ies).

Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to, and approved by, the City Manager or his or her designee.

-5-
11303-0006\2945394v9.doc
provide a financial guarantee, satisfactory to the City Manager, or his or her designee, guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. At no time shall Landlord, its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers be responsible for the payment of any deductibles or self-insured retentions.
(d) All policies of insurance required hereunder shall be endorsed to provide that the coverage shall not be cancelled, non-renewed, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) calendar days’ written notice by certified mail, return receipt requested, has been given to Landlord. Upon issuance by the insurer, broker, or agent of a notice of cancellation, nonrenewal, or reduction in coverage or in limits, Tenant shall furnish Landlord with a new certificate and applicable endorsements for such policy(ies).

(e) The General Liability insurance policy shall be written on an occurrence form and shall name Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers as an additional insured. Such policy(ies) of insurance shall be endorsed so Tenant’s insurance shall be primary and no contribution shall be required of Landlord, its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers. The coverage(s) shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Should Tenant maintain insurance with broader coverage and/or limits of liability greater than those shown above, Landlord requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits of liability maintained by Tenant.

(f) Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall immediately furnish Landlord with a complete copy of any insurance policy required under this Lease, including all endorsements, with said copy certified by the underwriter to be a true and correct copy of the original policy.

This requirement shall survive expiration or termination of this Lease. (g) The fact that insurance is obtained by Tenant shall not be deemed to release or diminish Tenant’s liability, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this Lease. The duty to indemnify Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by Tenant.

(h) Tenant and its insurers hereby waive all rights of recovery against Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers, on account of injury, loss by, or damage to Tenant or its officers, officials, employees, members, agents, volunteers, persons under Tenant’s supervision, vendors, suppliers, invitees, consultants, sub-consultants, subcontractors, or 328

11303-0006\2945394v9.doc
anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them, or its property or the property of others under its care, custody and control.

(i) If Tenant should sublease the Premises under this Lease, Tenant shall require sub-lessee to provide insurance protection in favor of Landlord, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers in accordance with the terms of each of the preceding paragraphs, except that the sub-lessee’s certificates and endorsements shall be on file with Tenant and Landlord prior to the commencement of any sublease.

8. Damage/Destruction of Tenant Property. Landlord has no obligation to reimburse Tenant for the loss of or damage to fixtures, equipment or other personal property, except for loss or damage as is caused by the active gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its officers, employees, or agents. Tenant may insure all fixtures, equipment, or other personal property for its own protection if it so desires.

9. Indemnification.
(a) Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Landlord and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers from any and all loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs, and damages (whether in contract, tort, or strict liability, including, without limitation, personal injury, death at any time, and property damage, including damage by fire or other casualty) incurred by Landlord, Tenant, or any other person, and from any and all claims, demands, and actions in law or equity (including attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses), arising or alleged to have arisen directly or indirectly out of: (i) the occupancy, maintenance, and use of the Premises and/or; (ii) the performance of this Lease.

(b) Should Tenant sublease the Premises under this Lease, Tenant shall require each sub-lessee to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Landlord and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers in accordance with the terms of the preceding paragraph.
(c) This requirement shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease.

(b) Tenant agrees that it will pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Tenant at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien against the Premises or any interest therein. All alterations and improvements made by Tenant shall, at Landlord’s option and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, be removed from the Premises at the end of the term of this Lease and the Premises restored to their condition prior to the making of such alterations or improvements.

13. Tenant’s Property. All trade fixtures, equipment, and personal property of Tenant located at the Premises will remain the property of Tenant during the term of this Lease and may be removed by Tenant at any time and shall be removed by Tenant prior to the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease. If Tenant does not do so, Landlord may retain or dispose of any such remaining fixtures, equipment, and personal property without obligation or liability to Tenant, and Tenant hereby waives all statutes and other laws to the contrary. Tenant, at Tenant’s cost and expense, must promptly repair all damage to the Premises occasioned by Tenant’s removal of its trade fixtures, equipment, and personal property.

14. Premises Damage and Destruction. If the Premises or any portion thereof are damaged or destroyed by any casualty (whether or not insured), either party may terminate this Lease by written notice to the other.

15. Assignment, Subletting, and Invitees. Tenant may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Lease, or sublet all or any part of the Premises nor permit the occupancy thereof by any other person or entity, except that the RACES volunteers operators shall be permitted invitees of Tenant’s in the Premises. Within seven (7) business days of the date of this Lease, Tenant shall provide Landlord with a list of names of the RACES volunteer operators who Tenant intends to invite and permit on the Premises, and shall provide Landlord with an updated list of such operators within five (5) calendar days of Tenant’s subsequent changes to permitted invitees.

16. Tenant Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
330
-8-
11303-0006\2945394v9.doc
(a) Failure by Tenant to make payment of rent or any other payments required to be made by Tenant hereunder within five (5) business days after written notice that they are past due.
(b) Failure by Tenant to keep and maintain any of the insurance required to be kept and maintained by Tenant under this Lease.
(c) Failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants or provisions of this Lease, other than as provided in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 16, when such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure is given by Landlord to Tenant; provided, that if the nature of Tenant’s failure is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant will not be deemed to be in default if Tenant promptly commences such cure and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

17. Remedies. If Tenant is in default, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have at law or in equity, Landlord has the following rights and remedies which are not exclusive but are cumulative:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, Landlord can, with or without terminating this Lease, reenter the Premises and remove all property and persons therefrom, and any such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost and for the account of Tenant. If Landlord elects to reenter or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, and if Landlord has not elected to terminate this Lease, Landlord may either recover all rent as it becomes due under this Lease or relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms and upon such provisions as Landlord may deem advisable and will have the right to make repairs to and alterations of the Premises. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord is to be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant by Landlord. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of Tenant’s default, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease because of such default if Landlord elects to relet the Premises without terminating this Lease, then rent received by Landlord therefrom will be applied as follows:
(i) First, to any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than rent due from Tenant;
(ii) Second, to all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, for maintenance, repairs, or alterations, incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting the Premises; and
(iii) Third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid under this Lease and the residual, if any, will be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable under this Lease and to any damages and other amounts that Landlord is otherwise entitled to under this Lease. Should that portion of such rent received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable hereunder during that month by Tenant, then Tenant agrees to pay such deficiency 331
-9-
11303-0006\2945394v9.doc
to Landlord immediately upon demand. In no event will Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord from such reletting.
(b) Landlord can terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises at any time. No act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant will terminate this Lease.

Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession. On termination, Landlord has the right to recover from Tenant any amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s default.
(c) Without waiving the default, Landlord can, at its sole option, pay such sums and/or take such actions as are necessary in Landlord’s reasonable judgment in order to cure the default, and all sums expended or incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately on demand.

18. Landlord Entry. Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have the right upon reasonable prior written notice to Tenant to enter all portions of the Premises for any of the following purposes: (a) to determine whether the Premises are in good condition and whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease; (b) to inspect the Premises; (c) in connection with Landlord’s design and construction planning respecting Landlord’s future use of the Premises; and (d) to post notices of non-responsibility. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, and without notice to Tenant, where an emergency situation necessitates such entry. No exercise by Landlord of its rights under this Section shall entitle Tenant to any damages for any injury or inconvenience occasioned thereby or to any abatement of rent or other amounts payable under this Lease.

19. Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant agrees to surrender possession of the Premises, and every part thereof, to Landlord in good order, condition, and repair, ordinary wear and tear alone excepted. “Ordinary wear and tear” does not include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good maintenance practice or by Tenant performing all of its obligations under this Lease.

20. Notices. Except as otherwise provided, all notices required or permitted to be given under this Lease must be in writing and addressed to the parties at their respective notice addresses set forth below; provided, that notices to Tenant may also be effectively given in writing and addressed to Tenant at the Premises address. Notices must be given by commercial delivery service) or by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Notices will be deemed effectively given, in the case of overnight messenger delivery, upon receipt (or if receipt is refused, upon attempted delivery), and in the case of mailing, three (3) days following deposit into the custody of the United States Postal Service (or inability to deliver, as shown on the return receipt).

c) Failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants or provisions of this Lease, other than as provided in subsections ( b) and ( c) of this Section 16, when such failure continues for a period of thirty ( 30) days after written notice of such failure is given by Landlord to Tenant; provided, that if the nature of Tenant' s failure is such that more than thirty ( 30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant will not be deemed to be in default if Tenant promptly commences such cure and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

17. Remedies. IfTenant is in default, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have at law or in equity, Landlord has the following rights and remedies which are not exclusive but are cumulative:
a) To the extent permitted by law, Landlord can, with or without terminating this Lease, reenter the Premises and remove all property and persons therefrom, and any such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost and for the account of Tenant. IfLandlord elects to reenter or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, and if Landlord has not elected to terminate this Lease, Landlord may either recover all rent as it becomes due under this Lease or relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms and upon such provisions as Landlord may deem advisable and will have the right to make repairs to and alterations of the Premises. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord is to be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant by Landlord. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of Tenant' s default, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease because of such default if Landlord elects to rel et the Premises without terminating this Lease, then rent received by Landlord therefrom will be applied as follows:
i) First, to any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than rent due from Tenant;
ii) Second, to all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, for maintenance, repairs, or alterations, incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting the Premises; and
iii) Third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid under this Lease and the residual, if any, will be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable under this Lease and to any damages and other amounts that Landlord is otherwise entitled to under this Lease. Should that portion of such rent received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than 8-
11303- 0006\ 2945394v5. doc
352
the rent payable hereunder during that month by Tenant, then Tenant agrees to pay such deficiency to Landlord immediately upon demand. h1 no event will Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord from such reletting.
b) Landlord can terminate Tenant' s right to possession of the Premises at any time. No act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant will terminate this Lease.

Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord' s initiative to protect Landlord' s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant' s right to possession. On termination, Landlord has the right to recover from Tenant any amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant' s default.
c) Without waiving the default, Landlord can, at its sole option, pay such sums and/ or take such actions as are necessary in Landlord' s reasonable judgment in order to cure the default, and all sums expended or incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately on demand.

Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, and without notice to Tenant, where an emergency situation necessitates such entry. No exercise by Landlord of its rights under this Section shall entitle Tenant to any damages for any injury or inconvenience occasioned thereby or to any abatement of rent or other amounts payable under this Lease.

19. Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant agrees to surrender possession of the Premises, and every part thereof, to Landlord in good order, condition, and repair, ordinary wear and tear alone excepted.

(iv) Property insurance against all risks of loss to any tenant improvements or betterments, at full replacement cost with no coinsurance penalty provision.

(c) Tenant shall be responsible for payment of any deductibles contained in any insurance policies required hereunder and Tenant shall also be responsible for payment of any selfinsured retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to, and approved by, the City Manager or his or her designee.

-5- 11303-0006\2945394v7.doc
provide a financial guarantee, satisfactory to the City Manager, or his or her designee, guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses.

(e) The General Liability insurance policy shall be written on an occurrence form and shall name Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers as an additional insured. Such policy(ies) of insurance shall be endorsed so Tenant’s insurance shall be primary and no contribution shall be required of Landlord, its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers. The coverage(s) shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Should Tenant maintain insurance with broader coverage and/or limits of liability greater than those shown above, Landlord requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits of liability maintained by Tenant. Any workers’ compensation insurance policy shall contain a waiver of subrogation as to Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. The property insurance policy shall name Landlord as a loss payee. (f) Upon Landlord’s request, Tenant shall immediately furnish Landlord with a complete copy of any insurance policy required under this Lease, including all endorsements, with said copy certified by the underwriter to be a true and correct copy of the original policy.

This requirement shall survive expiration or termination of this Lease. (g) The fact that insurance is obtained by Tenant shall not be deemed to release or diminish Tenant’s liability, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this Lease. The duty to indemnify Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by Tenant. Approval or purchase of any insurance contracts or policies shall in no way relieve from liability nor limit the liability of Tenant, its board members, officers, officials, employees, members, agents, volunteers, persons under Tenant’s supervision, vendors, suppliers, invitees, consultants, sub-consultants, subcontractors, or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
(h) Tenant and its insurers hereby waive all rights of recovery against Landlord and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers, on account of injury, loss by, or damage to Tenant or its officers, officials, employees, members, agents, volunteers, persons under Tenant’s supervision, vendors, suppliers, invitees, consultants, sub-consultants, subcontractors, or 368
-6- 11303-0006\2945394v7.doc
anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them, or its property or the property of others under its care, custody and control. Tenant shall give notice to its insurers that this waiver of subrogation is contained in this Lease. This requirement shall survive termination or expiration of this Lease.
(i) If Tenant should sublease the Premises under this Lease, Tenant shall require sub-lessee to provide insurance protection in favor of Landlord, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers in accordance with the terms of each of the preceding paragraphs, except that the sub-lessee’s certificates and endorsements shall be on file with Tenant and Landlord prior to the commencement of any sublease.

8. Damage/Destruction of Tenant Property. Landlord has no obligation to reimburse Tenant for the loss of or damage to fixtures, equipment or other personal property, except for loss or damage as is caused by the active gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord or its officers, employees, or agents. Tenant may insure all fixtures, equipment, or other personal property for its own protection if it so desires.

9. Indemnification.
(a) Tenant shall indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Landlord and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers from any and all loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs, and damages (whether in contract, tort, or strict liability, including, without limitation, personal injury, death at any time, and property damage, including damage by fire or other casualty) incurred by Landlord, Tenant, or any other person, and from any and all claims, demands, and actions in law or equity (including attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses), arising or alleged to have arisen directly or indirectly out of: (i) the occupancy, maintenance, and use of the Premises and/or; (ii) the performance of this Lease. Tenant’s obligations under the preceding sentence shall apply regardless of whether Landlord or any of its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers are negligent, but shall not apply to any loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs, or damages caused solely by the gross negligence, or by the willful misconduct, of Landlord or any of its officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers. (b) Should Tenant sublease the Premises under this Lease, Tenant shall require each sub-lessee to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Landlord and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers in accordance with the terms of the preceding paragraph.

11. Taxes. Tenant acknowledges that this Lease may create a possessory interest subject to taxation and that Tenant may be subject to payment of any and all taxes levied on that possessory interest. Tenant shall also pay any property taxes assessed on its personal property.

(a) Tenant agrees that it will not make any alterations or improvements to the Premises, or any portion of the Premises, without Landlord’s prior written consent in its sole and absolute discretion. No alterations or additions may affect the structural portions of the Premises, including, without limitation, the exterior or interior load-bearing walls, the foundation, or the roof of the Premises. Landlord shall be under no obligation to give its consent. If Landlord consents to the making of any alterations or improvements, Tenant agrees that such alterations or improvements will be made in strict compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction, will be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, and will be made in compliance with such other conditions, including, without limitation, the obtaining of performance and completion bonds, as Landlord may require in connection with the granting of its consent.
(b) Tenant agrees that it will pay, when due, all claims for labor or materials furnished or alleged to have been furnished to or for Tenant at or for use on the Premises, which claims are or may be secured by any mechanics’ or materialmen’s lien against the Premises or any interest therein. All alterations and improvements made by Tenant shall, at Landlord’s option and at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, be removed from the Premises at the end of the term of this Lease and the Premises restored to their condition prior to the making of such alterations or improvements.

13. Tenant’s Property. All trade fixtures, equipment, and personal property of Tenant located at the Premises will remain the property of Tenant during the term of this Lease and may be removed by Tenant at any time and shall be removed by Tenant prior to the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease.

Tenant, at Tenant’s cost and expense, must promptly repair all damage to the Premises occasioned by Tenant’s removal of its trade fixtures, equipment, and personal property.

14. Premises Damage and Destruction. If the Premises or any portion thereof are damaged or destroyed by any casualty (whether or not insured), either party may terminate this Lease by written notice to the other.

15. Assignment, Subletting, and Invitees. Tenant may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Lease, or sublet all or any part of the Premises nor permit the occupancy thereof by any other person or entity, except that the RACES volunteers operators shall be permitted invitees of Tenant’s in the Premises.

370
-8- 11303-0006\2945394v7.doc

16. Tenant Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the following shall constitute a default by Tenant:
(a) Failure by Tenant to make payment of rent or any other payments required to be made by Tenant hereunder within five (5) business days after written notice that they are past due.
(b) Failure by Tenant to keep and maintain any of the insurance required to be kept and maintained by Tenant under this Lease.
(c) Failure by Tenant to observe or perform any of the covenants or provisions of this Lease, other than as provided in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section 16, when such failure continues for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice of such failure is given by Landlord to Tenant; provided, that if the nature of Tenant’s failure is such that more than thirty (30) days are reasonably required for its cure, then Tenant will not be deemed to be in default if Tenant promptly commences such cure and thereafter diligently prosecutes such cure to completion.

17. Remedies. If Tenant is in default, then, in addition to all other rights and remedies which Landlord may have at law or in equity, Landlord has the following rights and remedies which are not exclusive but are cumulative:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, Landlord can, with or without terminating this Lease, reenter the Premises and remove all property and persons therefrom, and any such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost and for the account of Tenant. If Landlord elects to reenter or shall take possession of the Premises pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided by law, and if Landlord has not elected to terminate this Lease, Landlord may either recover all rent as it becomes due under this Lease or relet the Premises or any part or parts thereof for such term or terms and upon such provisions as Landlord may deem advisable and will have the right to make repairs to and alterations of the Premises. No reentry or taking possession of the Premises by Landlord is to be construed as an election to terminate this Lease unless a written notice of such intention is given to Tenant by Landlord. Notwithstanding any reletting without termination by Landlord because of Tenant’s default, Landlord may at any time after such reletting elect to terminate this Lease because of such default if Landlord elects to relet the Premises without terminating this Lease, then rent received by Landlord therefrom will be applied as follows:
(i) First, to any indebtedness from Tenant to Landlord other than rent due from Tenant;
(ii) Second, to all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, for maintenance, repairs, or alterations, incurred by Landlord in connection with reletting the Premises; and
(iii) Third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid under this Lease and the residual, if any, will be held by Landlord and applied in payment of future rent as the same may become due and payable under this Lease and to any damages and other amounts that Landlord is otherwise entitled to under this Lease. Should that portion of such rent received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than 371
-9- 11303-0006\2945394v7.doc
the rent payable hereunder during that month by Tenant, then Tenant agrees to pay such deficiency to Landlord immediately upon demand. In no event will Tenant be entitled to any excess rent received by Landlord from such reletting.
(b) Landlord can terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Premises at any time. No act by Landlord other than giving written notice to Tenant will terminate this Lease.

Acts of maintenance, efforts to relet the Premises, or the appointment of a receiver on Landlord’s initiative to protect Landlord’s interest under this Lease shall not constitute a termination of Tenant’s right to possession. On termination, Landlord has the right to recover from Tenant any amount, and court costs, necessary to compensate Landlord for all detriment proximately caused by Tenant’s default.
(c) Without waiving the default, Landlord can, at its sole option, pay such sums and/or take such actions as are necessary in Landlord’s reasonable judgment in order to cure the default, and all sums expended or incurred by Landlord in connection therewith, together with interest thereon at the maximum rate permitted by law, shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord immediately on demand.

18. Landlord Entry. Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have the right upon reasonable prior written notice to Tenant to enter all portions of the Premises for any of the following purposes: (a) to determine whether the Premises are in good condition and whether Tenant is complying with its obligations under this Lease; (b) to inspect the Premises; (c) in connection with Landlord’s design and construction planning respecting Landlord’s future use of the Premises; and (d) to post notices of non-responsibility. Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, Landlord and its authorized representatives shall have the right to enter the Premises at any time, and without notice to Tenant, where an emergency situation necessitates such entry. No exercise by Landlord of its rights under this Section shall entitle Tenant to any damages for any injury or inconvenience occasioned thereby or to any abatement of rent or other amounts payable under this Lease.

19. Surrender of Premises. Upon the expiration or other termination of the term of this Lease, Tenant agrees to surrender possession of the Premises, and every part thereof, to Landlord in good order, condition, and repair, ordinary wear and tear alone excepted. “Ordinary wear and tear” does not include any damage or deterioration that would have been prevented by good maintenance practice or by Tenant performing all of its obligations under this Lease.

20. Notices. Except as otherwise provided, all notices required or permitted to be given under this Lease must be in writing and addressed to the parties at their respective notice addresses set forth below; provided, that notices to Tenant may also be effectively given in writing and addressed to Tenant at the Premises address. Notices must be given by commercial delivery service) or by first-class mail, postage prepaid. Notices will be deemed effectively given, in the case of overnight messenger delivery, upon receipt (or if receipt is refused, upon attempted delivery), and in the case of mailing, three (3) days following deposit into the custody of the United States Postal Service (or inability to deliver, as shown on the return receipt). The notice addresses of the parties are as follows:

21. Waiver and Release of Relocation Benefits. Tenant acknowledges that upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, including any extension thereof, or upon termination of any holdover tenancy (collectively “Expiration of Tenancy”), Tenant might be or become eligible to receive compensation, reimbursement, assistance, including, without limitation, the fair market value of real and personal property, loss of goodwill, loss of profits, actual and reasonable expenses for moving a business, loss of tangible personal property as a result of moving the business, expenses incurred in searching for a replacement site for the business, expenses to reestablish the business at the new site, “in-lieu payments,” and other such benefits (collectively “Benefits”) under the California Relocation Assistance Act (Gov.

Therefore, being fully informed of and understanding the acknowledgments made herein and of Tenant’s rights or potential rights to Benefits under the Compensatory Laws, Tenant hereby expressly and unconditionally waives, and releases Landlord from, any and all rights of Tenant to claim, demand, sue for, or receive any Benefits which Tenant is or might be or might become entitled to recover from Landlord as a result of, or in any way related to, Expiration of the Tenancy, Landlord’s acquisition of the Premises, and Landlord’s occupancy and possession of the Premises.

22. General.
(a) The acceptance by Landlord of any rental or other payments due hereunder with knowledge of the breach of any of the terms, covenants, or provisions of this Lease by Tenant shall not be construed as a waiver of any such breach. The acceptance at any time or times by Landlord of any sum less than that which is required to be paid by Tenant shall, unless Landlord specifically agrees otherwise in writing, be deemed to have been received only on account of the obligation for which it is paid, and shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary written on any check or contained in any writing transmitting the same.
373
-11- 11303-0006\2945394v7.doc
(b) The titles to the sections of this Lease are for convenience of reference only and are not a part of this Lease and shall have no effect upon the construction or interpretation of any part of this Lease. Any exhibits attached to this Lease are, however, a part of this Lease. This Lease shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to any otherwise governing principles of conflicts of law. In construing this Lease, none of the parties to it shall have any term or provision construed against it solely by reason of its having drafted the same.
(c) Any provision of this Lease that is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability without invalidating, diminishing, or rendering unenforceable the rights and obligations of the parties under the remaining provisions of this Lease.
(d) No term or provision of this Lease may be amended, altered, modified, or waived orally or by a course of conduct, but only by an instrument in writing signed by a duly authorized officer or representative of the party against which enforcement of such amendment, alteration, modification, or waiver is sought. Any amendment, alteration, modification, or waiver shall be for such period and subject to such conditions as shall be specified in the written instrument effecting the same. Any waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
(e) This Lease and all exhibits attached to it constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements (whether written or oral) with respect to that subject matter. (f) This Lease may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. (g) If either party hereto brings an action to enforce the terms hereof or declare rights hereunder, the prevailing party in such action, on trial or appeal, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees to be paid by the losing party as fixed by the court. (h) Time is of the essence of each provision hereof in which time is a factor.

RESOLUTION 2024-118

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BANNING, CALIFORNIA, RESCINDING ITS ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION 2024-66, AND APPROVING AN OFFICE

LEASE WITH RIVERSIDE COUNTY ON BEHALF OF THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT DEPARTMENT FOR OFFICE SPACE WITHIN THE ARMORY LOCATED AT 2041 W. NICOLET ST. TO BE USED BY THE RADIO AMATEUR EMERGENCY SERVICES (RACES) WHEREAS, RACES stands for “Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service” a protocol created by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Many government agencies across the county train their Auxiliary Communications Service volunteers using RACES protocol. Amateur Radio Operators, also known as Ham Radio Operators, are an important component in an Emergency Communication Plan. The RACES volunteer operators are: (1) licensed Radio Amateurs; (2) certified by a civil defense agency; (3) able to communicate on Amateur Radio frequencies during drills, exercises, and emergencies; and (4) the only Amateur Radio operators authorized to transmit during declared emergencies when the President of the United States specifically invokes the War Powers Act. The Radios will still operate without cell towers and phone lines; and
WHEREAS, the Pass Area RACES organization is highly trained and is an integral part of the Emergency Response Plan should an emergency occur. The Armory has been designated as the Emergency Operations Command (EOC) and having RACES located in the building will ensure any emergency operation is conducted efficiently; and WHEREAS, the County desires to enter into an office lease agreement with the City for office space within the Armory Building located at 2041 W. Nicolet Street to be used by the Pass Area RACES; and
WHEREAS, on May 14, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution 2024-66, approving an Office Lease Agreement with the County of Riverside on behalf of the Emergency Management Department (the “original Office Lease Agreement”). The terms of the original Office Lease Agreement required that the County pay rent in the amount of $1 per year for a total of three years, with an option to renew the term. The terms of the original Office Lease Agreement also required the County to pay $100 per month for utilities supplied to the leased office space, including water, sewer, gas, heat, light, power, and all other utilities or services of any kind.

Riverside County Emergency Management Department staff have reviewed the terms of the original Office Lease Agreement after the City Council’s adoption of Resolution 2024-66 and have requested that the City remove the requirement for the County to pay $100 per month for utilities as set forth in Section 10 of the original Office Lease Agreement because the Pass Area RACES provides a public benefit as described in the recitals above. City staff have no objections to the County’s request and have prepared a new Office Lease Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A, for the City Council’s consideration; and
WHEREAS, under the proposed new Office Lease Agreement, the County will pay rent in the amount of $1 per year for a total of three years, with an option to renew, and is not obligated to pay for utilities supplied to the leased office space.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Banning as follows:
383
Resolution 2024-118

SECTION 1. The City Council hereby rescinds its adoption of Resolution 2024-66.

STAFF REPORT
TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Douglas Schulze, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Patrick Safari, Capital Improvement Projects Manager Art Vela, Director of Public Works
MEETING DATE: July 9, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Resolution 2024-119, Awarding a Professional Services Agreement for the Design of Traffic Signal Hardware Upgrade at 17 Intersections to STC Traffic, Inc. in the amount of $74,760 and Approving a 10% Contingency for a Total Project Budget of “Not-to-Exceed” $82,236
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution 2024-119.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Banning completed a Local Road Safety Plan (LRSP) in August 2022 that identified signalized intersections as an important area of focus for the safety of the city’s residents and visitors.

The collision data from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021 indicated that 61% of collisions at signalized intersections were either rear-end, broadside or sideswipe. These types of collisions are typically associated with failure to stop at a red signal. At signalized intersections, there were also a significant number of collisions and injuries involving bicycles and pedestrians. Seventeen (17) signalized intersections were identified as needing safety improvements.

On October 12, 2021, under Resolution 2021-91, the City Council approved Master Agreement 08- 5214S21 with California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) for state funded projects.

On October 10, 2023, under Resolution 2023-167, the City Council approved a corresponding Program Supplement Agreement No. HSIPL-5214(016) for Caltrans Cycle 11 Highway Safety Improvement Program. The agreement authorizes the City of Banning to start the Preliminary Engineering (PE) phase.

On April 12, 2024, staff released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Design Services for the Upgrade of Traffic Signal Hardware at 17 intersections on the City’s public bidding platform. The proposals were due on May 17, 2024. In response to the RFP, four (4) proposals were received from the following consultants:

Consultant Score (Out of 100)
1) STC Traffic, Inc. 91.33
2) Kimley Horn, Inc. 86.33
3) Minagar & Associates, Inc. 82.00
4) LIN Consulting, Inc. 80.67
JUSTIFICATION:
388
The Project will improve safety of the signalized intersections by implementing countermeasures such as signal hardware improvements (lenses, back plates with retroreflective borders), installation of Emergency Vehicle Pre-emption (EVP) systems and installation of Audible Pedestrian Countdown Signal Heads (APS).

Staff evaluated the proposals based on qualifications, cost, experience with the requested scope of services and response to the request for proposals. As a result, staff recommend the award of a professional services agreement to STC Traffic, Inc., in the amount of $74,760.

The scope will consist of the preparation of Plans, Specifications and Estimates (PS&E) including construction support.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff recommends awarding an agreement to STC Traffic, Inc. in the amount of $74,760 and approving a 10% contingency in the amount of $7,476 for a total “not-to-exceed” project budget of $82,236.

The project is budgeted and will be funded from Measure A Funds, Account 100-4900-431.90-10.

The project costs are eligible and will be reimbursed by the State of California Department of Transportation Cycle 11 Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). The City of Banning will receive monthly reimbursements from the State of California.

ALTERNATIVES:

Do not approve and provide alternative direction.

1.14 Prohibition Against Subcontracting or Assignment.

The experience, knowledge, capability and reputation of Consultant, the Consultant Representative and employees were a substantial inducement for City to enter into this Agreement.

Therefore, Consultant shall not contract with any other entity to perform in whole or in part the Services required hereunder without the express written approval of City.

2.3 Reimbursable Expenses.

City shall only reimburse Consultant for those actual and necessary expenses expressly set forth in Exhibit C.

City will not pay for any Services or reimburse for any expenses incurred which are not specified in the Scope of Services, unless authorized in writing as set forth in Section 1.8 of this Agreement. City shall make payment for such authorized additional Services and expenses in accordance with Article 2 of this Agreement.

2.5 Invoices.

Each month Consultant shall furnish to City an original invoice for all Services performed and expenses incurred during the preceding month. Each such invoice shall contain all of the information set forth in Section III of Exhibit C to this Agreement. By submitting an invoice for payment under this Agreement, Consultant is certifying compliance with all provisions of the 399
-7-
Agreement. Consultant shall not invoice City for any duplicate Services performed by more than one person.

In the event any charges or expenses are disputed by City, the original invoice shall be returned by City to Consultant for correction and resubmission. Review and payment by City of any invoice provided by Consultant shall not constitute waiver of any rights or remedies provided herein or any applicable law.

2.6 Waiver.

Payment to Consultant for Services performed pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed to waive any defects in Services performed by Consultant.

ARTICLE 3. PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE

In the event that City determines Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, City shall have no obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any Services performed after the date of default. In addition to the provisions of Section 4.8, and the right to terminate pursuant to Section 6.7, if the City Manager determines that Consultant is in default in the performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, City may serve Consultant with written notice of the default. Consultant shall have ten (10) calendar days after service upon it of the notice in which to cure the default by rendering a satisfactory performance. 406
-14-
In the event that Consultant fails to cure its default within such period of time, City may, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, terminate this Agreement without further notice and without prejudice to any other remedy to which it may be entitled at law, in equity or under this Agreement.

B. In the event of termination pursuant to this Section, City may take over the Services and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed City as provided in Section 6.3.

6.3 Retention of Funds.

Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement): (i) any payment amount of which may be in dispute hereunder or which is necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, (ii) all amounts retained pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.8, (iii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement, and (iv) all payments due or that become due to Consultant during the period that Consultant or any of its sub-contractors fail to maintain any required insurance in full force and effect, until notice is received by City that the required insurance has been restored to full force and effect and that the premiums therefore have been paid for a period satisfactory to City, as provided in Section 4.9, above. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

6.4 Waiver.

Waiver by any Party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any Party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.

Acceptance by City of any Services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.

Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing, and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

6.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party 407
-15-
of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.

6.6 Legal Action.

In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Consultant must file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action against City under this Agreement.

6.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Article 6 shall govern any termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in Section 6.2 for termination for default of Consultant. City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of Consultant, the period of notice may be a shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, Consultant reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of City, the period of notice may be a shorter time as Consultant may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all Services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where Consultant has initiated termination, Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all Services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any Services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 6.3. In the event Consultant has initiated termination, Consultant shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating Party need not provide the non-terminating Party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 6.2.

6.8 Attorneys’ Fees.

In any litigation or other proceeding by which a Party seeks to enforce its rights under this Agreement (whether in contract, tort or both) or seeks a declaration of any rights or obligations under this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees. Attorneys’ fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition the Party entitled to attorneys’ fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. 408
-16-
ARTICLE 7. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

7.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

No officer or employee of City shall be personally liable to Consultant, or Consultant’s Successor, in the event of any default or breach by City or for any amount which may become due to Consultant or Consultant’s Successor, or for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement.

7.2 Conflict of Interest.

Consultant covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Consultant’s performance of Services under this Agreement. Consultant further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent or sub-contractor without the express written consent of the Contract Officer. Consultant agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of City in the performance of this Agreement.

No officer or employee of City shall have any direct or indirect financial interest in this Agreement within the scope of Government Code section 1090, nor shall any such officer or employee make, participate in making, or use his or her official position to influence, any City decision relating to the Agreement which has a material financial effect on his or her financial interests or the financial interests of any corporation, partnership or association in which he or she is, directly or indirectly, interested, in violation of any State statute or regulation. Consultant warrants that it has not paid or given, and will not pay or give any third party any money or other consideration for obtaining this Agreement.

Consultant and its officers, employees, associates and sub-contractors, if any, shall comply with all conflict of interest statutes of the State of California applicable to Consultant’s Services under this Agreement, including the Political Reform Act (Gov. Code § 81000, et seq.) and Government Code Section 1090. During the term of this Agreement, Consultant may perform similar services for other clients; but Consultant and its officers, employees, associates and subcontractors shall not, without the Contract Officer’s prior written approval, perform services for another person or entity for whom Consultant is not currently performing services that would require Consultant or one of its officers, employees, associates or sub-contractors to abstain from a decision under this Agreement pursuant to a conflict of interest statute. Consultant shall incorporate a clause substantially similar to this Section into any subcontract that Consultant executes in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

7.3 Covenant Against Discrimination.

Consultant 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, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, or ancestry in the performance of this Agreement.

Consultant shall take affirmative action to insure that applicants are employed, and that employees 409
-17-
are treated during employment, without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, national origin, or ancestry, or other protected class.

7.4 Unauthorized Aliens.

Consultant hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C.A. §§ 1101, et seq., as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Consultant so employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of Services covered by this Agreement, and should the any liability or sanctions be imposed against City for such use of unauthorized aliens, Consultant hereby agrees to and shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with any and all costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by City.

8.5 Severability.

In the event that any one or more of the phrases, sentences, clauses, paragraphs, or sections contained in this Agreement shall be declared invalid or unenforceable by a valid judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any of the remaining phrases, sentences, clauses, paragraphs, or sections of this Agreement which are hereby declared as severable and shall be interpreted to carry out the intent of the Parties hereunder unless the invalid provision is so material that its invalidity deprives either Party of the basic benefit of their bargain or renders this Agreement meaningless.

8.8 Final Payment Acceptance Constitutes Release.

The acceptance by Consultant of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of City from all claims and liabilities for compensation to Consultant for anything done, furnished or relating to Consultant’s Services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of City’s check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by City shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of Consultant, its employees, sub-contractors and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or Services performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by City for any defect or error in the Services prepared by Consultant, its employees, sub-contractors and agents.

8.9 Non-Appropriation of Funds.

Payments to be made to Consultant by City for Services performed within the current fiscal year which are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund.

NOW, THEREFORE, the PARTIES agree as follows:

P::in,:, 1 of 1R
14th October 21
451

ARTICLE I - PROJECT ADMINISTRATION

1. This AGREEMENT shall have no force or effect with respect to any program project unless and until a project- specific Program Supplement to this AGREEMENT for state funded projects, hereinafter referred to as "PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT", has been fully executed by both STATE and ADMINISTERING AGENCY.

2. The State approved project-specific allocation notification letter and approved CTC allocation documentation designate the party responsible for implementing PROJECT, type of work, and location of PROJECT for projects requiring CTC allocation by PROJECT component of work.

3. The PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT sets out special covenants as a condition for the ADMINISTERING AGENCY to receive STATE FUNDS from/through STATE for designated PROJECT. The PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT shall also show these STATE FUNDS that have been initially encumbered for PROJECT along with the matching funds to be provided by ADMINISTERING AGENCY and/or others. Execution of PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT by the PARTIES shall cause ADMINISTERING AGENCY to adopt all the terms of this AGREEMENT as though fully set forth therein in the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT. Unless otherwise expressly delegated in a resolution by the governing body of ADMINISTERING AGENCY, and with written concurrence by STATE, the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT shall be approved and managed by the governing body of ADMINISTERING AGENCY.

4. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to execute and return each project-specific PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT. The PARTIES agree that STATE may suspend future allocations, encumbrances and invoice payments for any on- going or future STATE FUNDED PROJECT performed by ADMINISTERING AGENCY if any project-specific PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT is not returned, unless otherwise agreed by STATE in writing.

5. ADMINISTERING AGENCY further agrees, as a condition to the release and payment of STATE FUNDS encumbered for the PROJECT described in each PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, to comply with the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT and all the agreed-upon Special Covenants or Remarks incorporated within the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, and Cooperative/Contribution Agreement where appropriate, defining and identifying the nature of the specific PROJECT.

6. STATE FUNDS will not participate in any portion of PROJECT work performed in advance of the effective date of allocation by CTC, or by STATE for allocations delegated to STATE by CTC, for said PROJECT.

7. Projects allocated with STATE FUNDS will be administered in accordance with the current CTC STIP Guidelines, applicable chapter(s) of the LAPG, LAPM and/or any other instructions published by STATE.

8. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to ensure compliance with all relevant State laws and requirements for work related to PROJECT, including the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

9. ADMINISTERING AGENCY's eligible costs for preliminary engineering work includes all preliminary work directly related to PROJECT up to contract award for construction, including, but not limited to, environmental studies and permits (E&P), 452
preliminary surveys and reports, laboratory work, soil investigations, the preparation of plans, specifications and estimates (PS&E), advertising for bids, awarding of a contract and project development contract administration.

10. ADMINISTERING AGENCY's eligible costs for construction engineering include actual inspection and supervision of PROJECT construction work; construction staking; laboratory and field testing; and the preparation and processing of field reports, records, estimates, final reports, and allowable expenses of employees/consultants engaged in such activities.

11. Unless the PARTIES agree otherwise in writing, ADMINISTERING AGENCY's employees or its contracted engineering consultant shall be responsible for all PROJECT engineering work.

12. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall not proceed with final design of PROJECT until final environmental approval of PROJECT. Final design entails the design work necessary to complete the PS&E and other work necessary for a construction contract but not required earlier for environmental clearance of that PROJECT.

13. If PROJECT is not on STATE-owned right-of-way, PROJECT shall be constructed in accordance with Chapter 11 of the LAPM that describes minimum statewide design standards for local agency streets and roads. The design standards for projects off the National Highway System (NHS) allow STATE to accept either the current Caltrans Highway Design Manual standards, the current FHWA-adopted American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets standards, or the approved geometric design standards of ADMINISTERING AGENCY.

Additionally, for projects off the NHS, STATE will accept ADMINISTERING AGENCY-approved standard specifications, standard plans, materials sampling and testing quality assurance programs that meet the conditions described in the then current Local Assistance Procedures Manual.

14. If PROJECT involves work within or partially within STATE-owned right-of-way, that PROJECT shall also be subject to compliance with the policies, procedures and standards of the STATE Project Development Procedures Manual and Highway Design Manual and where appropriate, an executed cooperative agreement between STATE and ADMINISTERING AGENCY that outlines the PROJECT responsibilities and respective obligations of the PARTIES. ADMINISTERING AGENCY and its contractors shall each obtain an encroachment permit through STATE prior to commencing any work within STATE rights-of-way or work which affects STATE facilities.

15. When PROJECT is not on the State Highway System (SHS) but includes work to be performed by a railroad, the contract for such work shall be prepared by ADMINISTERING AGENCY or by STATE, as the PARTIES may hereafter agree. In either event, ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall enter into an agreement with the railroad providing for future maintenance of protective devices or other facilities installed under the contract.

16. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall comply with the provisions of sections 4450 and 4454 of the California Government Code, as well as other Department of General Services guidance, if applicable, for the contract PS&E for the construction of buildings, structures, sidewalks, curbs and related facilities for accessibility and
453
usability. Further requirements and guidance are provided in Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations.

17. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall provide a full-time public employee to be in responsible charge of each PROJECT. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall provide or arrange for adequate supervision and inspection of each PROJECT. ADMINISTERING AGENCY may utilize consultants to perform supervision and inspection work for PROJECT with a fully qualified and licensed engineer. Utilization of consultants does not relieve ADMINISTERING AGENCY of its obligation to provide a full-time public employee to be in responsible charge of each PROJECT.

18. Unless otherwise provided in the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT, ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall advertise, award, and administer the PROJECT construction contract or contracts.

19. The cost of maintenance, security, or protection performed by ADMINISTERING AGENCY or contractor forces during any temporary suspension of PROJECT or at any other time may not be charged to the PROJECT.

20. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall submit PROJECT-specific award information to STATE's District Local Assistance Engineer, within sixty (60) days after contract award.

21. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall submit the final report documents that collectively constitute a "Final Project Expenditure Report", LAPM Exhibit 17-M, within one hundred eighty (180) days of PROJECT completion. Failure by ADMINISTERING AGENCY to submit a "Final Project Expenditure Report", within 180 days of project completion will result in STATE imposing sanctions upon ADMINISTERING AGENCY in accordance with the Local Assistance Procedures Manual.

22. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 that prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability and all applicable regulations and guidelines issued pursuant to the ADA.

23. The Governor and the Legislature of the State of California, each within their respective jurisdictions, have prescribed certain nondiscrimination requirements with respect to contract and other work financed with public funds. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to comply with the requirements of the FAIR EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES ADDENDUM, attached hereto as Exhibit A and further agrees that any agreement entered into by ADMINISTERING AGENCY with a third party for performance of work connected with PROJECT shall incorporate Exhibit A (with third party's name replacing ADMINISTERING AGENCY) as parts of such agreement.

24. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall include in all contracts and subcontracts awarded when applicable, a clause that requires each subcontractor to comply with California Labor Code requirements that all workers employed on public works aspects of any project (as defined in California Labor Code sections 1720-1815) be paid not less than the general prevailing wage rates predetermined by the Department of Industrial Relations as effective at the date of contract award by the ADMINISTERING AGENCY.
454

ARTICLE II - RIGHTS-OF-WAY

1. No contract for the construction of a STATE FUNDED PROJECT shall be awarded until all necessary rights of way have been secured. Prior to the advertising for construction of PROJECT, ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall certify and, upon request, shall furnish STATE with evidence that all necessary rights-of-way are available for construction purposes or will be available by the time of award of the construction contract.

2. The furnishing of rights of way by ADMINISTERING AGENCY as provided for herein includes, and is limited to, the following, unless the PROGRAM SUPPLEMENT provides otherwise.
(a) Expenditures of capital and support to purchase all real property required for PROJECT free and clear of liens, conflicting easements, obstructions and encumbrances, after crediting PROJECT with the fair market value of any excess property retained and not disposed of by ADMINISTERING AGENCY.
(b) The cost of furnishing of right-of-way as provided for herein includes, in addition to real property required for the PROJECT, title free and clear of obstructions and encumbrances affecting PROJECT and the payment, as required by applicable law, of damages to owners of remainder real property not actually taken but injuriously affected by PROJECT. (c) The cost of relocation payments and services provided to owners and occupants pursuant to Government Code sections 7260-7277 when PROJECT displaces an individual, family, business, farm operation or nonprofit organization.
( d) The cost of demolition and/or the sale of all improvements on the right-of-way after credit is recorded for sale proceeds used to offset PROJECT costs. (e) The cost of all unavoidable utility relocation, protection or removal. (f) The cost of all necessary hazardous material and hazardous waste treatment, encapsulation or removal and protective storage for which ADMINISTERING AGENCY accepts responsibility and where the actual generator cannot be identified, and recovery made.

3. ADMINISTERING AGENCY agrees to indemnify and hold STATE harmless from any liability that may result in the event the right-of-way for a PROJECT is not clear as certified by ADMINISTERING AGENCY, including, but not limited to, if said right-of-way is found to contain hazardous materials requiring treatment or removal to remediate in accordance with Federal and State laws. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall pay, from its own non- matching funds, any costs which arise out of delays to the construction of PROJECT because utility facilities have not been timely removed or relocated, or because rights-of-way were not available to ADMINISTERING AGENCY for the orderly prosecution of PROJECT work. 455
ARTICLE Ill - MAINTENANCE AND MANAGEMENT

1. ADMINISTERING AGENCY will maintain and operate the property acquired, developed, constructed, rehabilitated, or restored by PROJECT for its intended public use until such time as the parties might amend this AGREEMENT to otherwise provide. With the approval of STATE, ADMINISTERING AGENCY or its successors in interest in the PROJECT property may transfer this obligation and responsibility to maintain and operate PROJECT property for that intended public purpose to another public entity.

2. Upon ADMINISTERING AGENCY's acceptance of the completed construction contract or upon contractor being relieved of the responsibility for maintaining and protecting PROJECT, ADMINISTERING AGENCY will be responsible for the maintenance, ownership, liability, and the expense thereof, for PROJECT in a manner satisfactory to the authorized representatives of STATE and if PROJECT falls within the jurisdictional limits of another Agency or Agencies, it is the duty of ADMINISTERING AGENCY to facilitate a separate maintenance agreement(s) between itself and the other jurisdictional Agency or Agencies providing for the operation, maintenance, ownership and liability of PROJECT. Until those agreements are executed, ADMINISTERING AGENCY will be responsible for all PROJECT operations, maintenance, ownership and liability in a manner satisfactory to the authorized representatives of STATE. If, within ninety (90) days after receipt of notice from STATE that a PROJECT, or any portion thereof, is not being properly operated and maintained and ADMINISTERING AGENCY has not satisfactorily remedied the conditions complained of, the approval of future STATE FUNDED PROJECTS of ADMINISTERING AGENCY will be withheld until the PROJECT shall have been put in a condition of operation and maintenance satisfactory to STATE. The provisions of this section shall not apply to a PROJECT that has been vacated through due process of law with STATE's concurrence.

3. PROJECT and its facilities shall be maintained by an adequate and well-trained staff of engineers and/or such other professionals and technicians as PROJECT reasonably requires.

Said operations and maintenance staff may be employees of ADMINISTERING AGENCY, another unit of government, or a contractor under agreement with ADMINISTERING AGENCY.

All maintenance will be performed at regular intervals or as required for efficient operation of the complete PROJECT improvements.

4. ADMINISTERING AGENCY shall comply with all applicable law, including but not limited to, all applicable legal authority regarding construction standards. 456
