Item 1.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael B. O'Kelly, City Manager
BY: Daisy Gomez, City Clerk
SUBJECT: GENERAL MOTION TO WAIVE FULL READING AND APPROVE ORDINANCES BY TITLE ONLY PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 36934 DATE: February 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council approve a general motion to waive full reading and approve Ordinances by title only pursuant to California Government Code Section 36934.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

In order to expedite the conduct of business at Council meetings, California State Law(California Government Code Section 36934) allows Ordinances to be read by title if a majority of the Council supports the motion waiving the full reading. Most California cities adopt a standard motion at the beginning of each meeting in order to effectuate this waiver.

Since most of the Ordinances introduced and adopted consist of multiple pages of technical language, reading by title only allows the Council to eliminate the communication of redundant information and attend to other matters during the meetings. Otherwise, the entire Ordinance language will have to be read in full.

CONCLUSION:

Allowing ordinances to be read by title only, according to California State Law, will expedite the conduct of business at Council Meetings.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael B. O'Kelly, City Manager
BY: Gustavo Romo, Deputy City Manager/Community Development Director SUBJECT: AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FORAS-NEEDED BUILDING

INSPECTION AND PLAN CHECK SERVICES
DATE: February 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council:

1. Adopt the attached Resolution;

3. Appropriate $100,000.00 to fund as-needed services through Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The City's Building and Safety Division, which is a division of the Community Development Department, has been assisted throughout the years by private consultant firms that provide as-needed building inspection and plan check services. For the most part, inspection services are only needed when the City's in-house inspectors are out on leave, or when special projects require additional inspection services. Plan check services, on the other hand, are regularly done by the City's consultant, except for minor plan checks done over the counter by City staff.

To address the needs of the City and have an opportunity to compare services, the City prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) on September 19, 2023. The following ten (10)firms responded to the RFP (listed in alphabetical order):

1. BPR Consulting Group

2. Bureau Veritas

3. CSG Consultants

4. 4Leaf

5. Infrastructure Engineers/Bowman Company

6. Interwest/SafeBuilt Company

7. RKA

8. Transtech

9. VCA

10. Willdan Engineering
The RFP requested a scope of services proposal to address the following:

1. Plan Checking
55 a) The Consultant shall review the plans prepared by or on behalf of the various private developers for compliance with the ordinances of the City.
b) The Consultant shall maintain close liaison with other City departments in order that the appropriate requirements of those departments are incorporated within such building plans. c) The Consultant shall arrange reviews by other appropriate agencies having jurisdiction in such matters relative to the enforcement of the Fire Codes, Sanitation Codes and Health Codes. When satisfied that the appropriate requirements of the City's codes have been met, the Consultant shall issue permits as appropriately set forth in such codes.

2. Building Inspection
a) The building inspector(s) shall provide building inspection services as needed and as requested during staff time-off and/or the course of construction of such private facilities to enforce compliance with the provisions of the City's ordinances and the code requirements set forth on the plans for which the permit was issued.

In the performance of such duties the building inspector(s) shall provide prompt inspection for each project at the completion of the various stages of construction to determine compliance with the appropriate City code.

EVALUATION OF CONSULTANT PROPOSALS
The City reviewed the ten (10) proposals in response to the September 2023 RFP through a panel made up of the Community Development Director, Public Works Director, Building Services Supervisor and City Planner. After reviewing the proposals, the panel decided to invite six (6) of the consulting firms to interview based primarily on overall experience, qualifications and cost. The panel compiled scoring sheets for each consulting firm rated on the following factors:

1. Local Government Experience 30%

2. Staff qualifications 30%

3. Cost 20%

4. Organization size &structure 10%

5. RFP responsiveness 5%

6. Amount, type & quality of insurance 5%
BPR Consulting Group received the highest score as shown in the following table:

FIRM SCORE* ....

BPR Consultiin Grout 93%
RIBA 001%
Willlldan 001%
Infrastructure Engineers, a Bowman Co. 88%
lnteirwest a SateBuih:Co. 35%
'MCA Code 77%
* Based on average of scores compiled from 4 panelists
CONCLUSION:
56 It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution, approving a Professional Services Agreement with BPR Consulting Group, LLC to provide consulting services to the City for as-needed building inspection and plan check services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The consulting services are paid by a percentage of the permit fees that are collected. In addition, as-needed building inspection services and plan checks that go beyond the typical are charged at an hourly rate. The total estimated annual not-to-exceed budget is $300,000. Staff is requesting that the City Council approve an appropriation of $100,000 for the remaining four months of the fiscal year to fund the services, keeping in mind that 59% of the permit fees collected will pay for the majority of the services.

The firm provides an off-site Building Official who gives direction to the City's Building Division, which consists of one full-time Building Services Supervisor, who also serves as the Senior Building Inspector, one full-time Building Inspector, and off-site plan check services.

Item 7.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Michael B. O'Kelly, City Manager
BY: Bernardo I niguez, Director of Public Works/Facilities SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF SAFE STREETS AND ROADS FORALL PROGRAM FUNDING

AGREEMENT
DATE: February 26, 2024
RECOMMENDATION:

It is staff's recommendation that the City Council:

1. Adopt the attached Resolution approving the Safe Streets and Roads for All Program Funding Agreement with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority;

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Safe Streets and Roads for All Program Funding Agreement; and

3. Appropriate $50,132.25 of Gas Tax funds as the City's local match.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

On November 15, 2021, the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law established the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Program. The SS4A Program supports the development, completion, or supplementation of a comprehensive safety action plan (Action Plan) that identifies the most significant roadway safety concerns in a community and the implementation of projects and strategies to address roadway safety issues.

On February 1, 2023, the United States Department of Transportation awarded $21,494,665 in SS4A Program funds to support projects to be implemented by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA)or their subrecipients.

The award included an allocation of $200,529 in Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) funds for the City of Bell Gardens (City) to update components of the City's existing Safety Analysis Report Program (SSARP), which the City prepared in 2019, and the City's existing Complete Streets Plan, which the City prepared in 2020. This will allow the City to create a "conforming" Action Plan which will enable the City to pursue grant funds for implementation projects in future cycles of the SS4A Program.

The City's SSARP assists the City in performing collision analyses at intersections, identifies safety issues on the City's roadway network, and recommends systemic low-cost countermeasures.

The City's Complete Streets Plan strategically identifies and creates a plan that will achieve the City's overall vision for a comprehensive transportation system that addresses an increase in active modes of transportation (including pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and motorists), reduces greenhouse gas emissions, increases roadway users' safety, increases transit ridership, reduces vehicle trips, and creates an overall cohesive city with no transportation gaps.
161

I n order to make the two respective plans above "conforming," they will be updated to show the following:
• A high-ranking official and/or governing body in the jurisdiction will publicly commit to an eventual goal of zero roadway fatalities and serious injuries. The commitment will include either setting a target date to reach zero; or setting one or more targets to achieve significant declines in roadway fatalities and serious injuries by a specific date. • A committee, task force, implementation group, or similar body will be established and charged with the plan's development, implementation, and monitoring.
• The plan development will include an assessment of current policies, plans, guidelines, and/or standards to identify opportunities to improve how processes prioritize safety. • The plan will discuss implementation through the adoption of revised or new policies, guidelines, and/or standards. • The plan will include a description of how progress will be measured over time that includes, at a minimum, outcome data.
• The plan will be posted publicly online.

CONCLUSION:

In order to receive the FHWA funds, the City must enter into the Safe Streets and Roads for All Program Funding Agreement with LAC MTA as the pass-through agency and provide $50,132.25 in local matching funds.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will receive $200,529 in FHWA funds and provide a match of $50,132.25 in Gas Tax funds, for a total amount of$250,661.25 available for the update of the City's SSARP and Complete Streets Plan.
