Mission Statement
Department Description
The City's Municipal Water System (MWS) was established by the City Council in 2007 to operate the water system acquired from Peerless Water Company.
The MWS served 1,824 customers, or approximately 10% of the City, from eight separate sub-systems that are geographically separated in the City. The MWS consisted of one operating High Capacity Well, over 78,577 linear feet of distribution pipeline, and service interconnections to adjacent water providers for standby water supply.
The MWS owned 986 acre-feet of water rights, of which 700 acre-feet of water rights were sold to the California American Water Company.
The MWS soley used groundwater to provide water service to its customers and had not purchased imported water since 2012.
In July 2008, the City completed the sale of $8.23 million in Certificates of Participation (COPs) to reimburse the City’s general fund for the purchase price of the MWS and to finance necessary capital improvements to the system's infrastructure. The COPs were refinanced in February 2021, but later paid off in November 2022 when the infrastructure assets and 700 acre-feet of water rights were sold to the California American Water Company.
Under the direction of the City Manager, the Director of the Public Works Department oversaw strategic planning, financial management, policy development, and capital projects for the MWS. He was aided by representatives of the Finance Department, the contract water program manager, and the contract water system operator, Bellflower Somerset Mutual Water Company, who was responsible for the day-to-day operation of the MWS.

AnaMatosantos, etc., et al., Case No. S196861, and upheld the validity of AB X1 26 – legislation that dissolves all redevelopment agencies – andinvalidated AB X1 27 – legislation that would have allowed redevelopment agencies to continue in existence by making certain payments to theState. The result of this decision is all redevelopment agencies have been dissolved effective February 1, 2012.
AB 26 provides for each redevelopment agency’s assets and obligations to be transferred to a “successor agency.” The successor agency isthe entity charged with performance of the redevelopment agency’s “enforceable obligations” (generally speaking, the obligations of theredevelopment agency as of June 28, 2011, when AB 26 was signed by the Governor) and with winding down the redevelopment agency’saffairs (e.g., projects, properties, enforceable obligations, etc.).
A city becomes the successor agency of its redevelopment agency automatically or it may affirmatively elect not to be the successor agency nolater than January 13, 2012. By taking no affirmative action, the City of Bellflower became the Successor Agency of the BellflowerRedevelopment Agency.
On February 1, 2012, all assets, properties, contracts, leases, books and records, buildings and equipment of the dissolved BellflowerRedevelopment Agency have been transferred by operation of law to the City of Bellflower (Successor Agency), including cash and cashequivalents and amounts owed to the redevelopment agency as of February 1, 2012. 1,569,798 1,502,412 1,664,547 1,708,293 1,795,314 1,866,309 0 500,000

ATTENTION: Jeffrey L. Stewart, City Manager
FROM: Jim DellaLonga, Director of Economic Development
SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to authorize the City Manager to suspend Chapter 5 of the Bellflower Business Assistance Program (Small Business Microloans).
DATE: June 12, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In July 2022, the City Council amended the Bellflower Business Assistance Plan to include a new Chapter 5 – Small Business Microloans. The Director of Economic Development recommends suspending Chapter 5 of the Plan. This will allow the Director to conduct research on potential entities that can vet, underwrite and make recommendations regarding program loan applicants to the program.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Direct the City Manager to suspend Chapter 5 of the Bellflower Business Assistance Plan; or
2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
FISCAL IMPACT
None with respect to this action. Funds budgeted for the Chapter 5 of the Bellflower Business Assistance Plan are generally $50,000 per fiscal year.
DISCUSSION
Last July, the City Council amended the Bellflower Business Assistance Plan by adding Chapter 5 – Small Business Microloans. Recent experience with implementing Chapter 5 suggests that it would be more prudent for the City to identify and retain an organization that vets, makes recommendations, and underwrites applicants pursuant to the microloan program. Staff will be assessing various factors including but not limited to cost, turnaround time, experience, and credit assessment/loan underwriting principals. During this time, the City Manager will neither accept nor process any potential application submitted to the City pursuant to Chapter 5 of the Plan.

FROM: Jim DellaLonga, Director of Economic Development SUBJECT: Receive and file an update regarding the termination of Lease Agreement AFN 698.1 between Bulletin Displays, LLC and the City of Bellflower, for the lease of public property for digital outdoor advertising.
DATE: June 12, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In September 2018, the City Council approved a lease agreement with Bulletin Displays, LLC (Bulletin Displays) for the lease of public property for the construction, operation and revenue share of digital billboard advertising at five locations in the City.
Due to a lack of perFormance by Bulletin Displays, under Section 10 of the Agreement, the Agreement became null and void.
RECOMMENDATIONS TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Receive and file the update regarding the termination o# Lease Agreement AFN 698.1; or
2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
FISCAL IMPACT
None. It was anticipated that the Agreement might result in annual rent of $75,000 for each of the three freeway locations and $30,000 for each of the two street locations, or 25% of the gross revenue for each location, whichever was greater.
DISCUSSION
On September 24, 2018, the City Council approved Agreement with Bulletin Displays, which allowed Bulletin Displays to use five city owned properties for digital outdoor advertising. The Agreement also required Bulletin Displays to pay annual rental fees of 75,000 for the three freeway locations and $30,000 for the two street locations, or 25% of the gross revenue for each location, whichever is greater.
Staff Report— Lease Termination AFN 698.1, Bulletin Displays June 12, 2023
DISCUSSION — Continued
A schedule of performance was provided in Section 10 of the Agreement, which required Bulletin Displays to submit an entitlement application for the required City planning and building permits within 90-days of the notification of code amendments allowing for the installation of the digital billboard. City Council approved the municipal code amendment creating the Development Agreement Zone Layover (DAZL) on August 10, 2020, which provided a mechanism to entitle the digital billboards. Bulletin Displays was notified shortly thereafter and was provided a draft development agreement on September 8, 2020. Bulletin Displays submitted an entitlement application on September 15, 2021 and was provided an incomplete letter on October 15, 2021. Nothing was resubmitted. Consequently, pursuant to Section 10, the Agreement became null and void.

SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to install an on-street disabled parking space (blue curb) at 9538 Arkansas Street (C.E.# 23-06).
DATE: June 12, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On May 16, 2023, the Public Safety Commission considered and subsequently recommended to the City Council the installation of an on-street disabled parking space (blue curb) pursuant to Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) Chapter 10.04. This action would approve and authorize the installation of the on-street disabled parking space (blue curb) at 9538 Arkansas Street.
RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to install the on-street disabled parking space (blued curb) at 9538 Arkansas Street; or
2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost to install the on-street disabled parking space is $100.00. The required funds are contained within the current fiscal year budget.
DISCUSSION
The City recently received a request from the resident at 9538 Arkansas Street to install one on-street disabled parking space (blue curb). In response to this request, the City Engineer conducted a site visit and discussed the matter with the resident to better understand the need for the blue curb. The resident suffers from a medical condition and possesses a valid disabled placard.

Staff Report – Installation of On-Street Disabled Parking Space at 9538 Arkansas Street
June 12, 2023
DISCUSSION – Continued
The subject property has four (4) houses with a shared driveway that extends to the rear property. The resident lives in the front of the property, but is unable to park her vehicle in the single wide driveway closest to her home because the driveway is shared with the other three residences. If a vehicle were parked at that location, access to the rear garages would be blocked. Due to the limited mobility by the resident, the shortest accessible path of travel is on-street parking. Hence the installation of a twenty (20) foot on-street disabled parking space is recommended. The location of the proposed blue curb is illustrated on the attached aerial photograph.
On May 2, 2022, the City provided notice to area residents of this request and that this matter would be brought before the Public Safety Commission at its May 16, 2023, meeting. To date the City has received no response to the notification.

SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to award a contract to Long Beach Ford LLC DBA BP Ford of Long Beach for the purchase of four 2023 F-150 pick-up trucks for the Public Safety and Public Works Departments which meet South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) standards under Assembly Bill (AB) 2766, and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Long Beach Ford LLC DBA BP Ford of Long Beach, in a form approved by the City Attorney.
DATE: June 12, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This action would award a contract to Long Beach Ford LLC DBA BP Ford of Long Beach (BP Ford) to perform the work described in the Notice of Request for Bids specification document for the purchase of four 2023 F-150 pick-up trucks.
RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Award a contract to BP Ford for the purchase of four 2023 F-150 pick-up trucks; and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with BP Ford, in a form approved by the City Attorney; or
2) Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item.
FISCAL IMPACT
BP Ford was the only dealership to submit a bid. The total cost of the four pick-up trucks will be $188,282.88. Funds are budgeted in Account No. 150-47500-3420 (AQMD Funding).
DISCUSSION
The award of a contract to BP Ford will be for the purchase of four pick-up trucks; two for the Public Safety Department and two for the Public Works Department. Each of the vehicles meet AQMD specifications which qualify them for funding under the (AB) 2766 subvention program. In our research, the Ford Motor Company is the only vehicle manufacturer which produces trucks that qualify for AQMD funding under the (AB) 2766.

SUBJECT: Consideration and possible action to authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to install red curb parking restrictions at the northeast corner of Palo Verde Avenue and Artesia Boulevard (C.E.# 23-07).
DATE: June 12, 2023
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This action would approve and authorize the installation of red curb parking restrictions at the northeast corner of Palo Verde Avenue and Artesia Boulevard pursuant to Bellflower Municipal Code (“BMC”) Chapter 10.04.
RECOMMENDATION TO CITY COUNCIL
1) Authorize the Director of Public Works, or designee, to install red curb parking restrictions at the northeast corner of Palo Verde Avenue and Artesia Boulevard; or

FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated cost to install the red curb parking restrictions is $100.00. The required funds are contained within the current fiscal year budget.
DISCUSSION
The City recently received a request to install red curb parking restrictions on Palo Verde Avenue and Artesia Boulevard. Specifically, the request was to install red curb parking restrictions on the east side of Palo Verde Avenue just north of Artesia Boulevard. Currently vehicles parked within the proposed red zone obstruct vehicles turning right onto Palo Verde Avenue from Artesia Boulevard. In response to this request the City is proposing to install twenty feet (20’) of red curb parking restrictions. The proposed change is illustrated on the attached aerial photograph. -1-

DISCUSSION – Continued
On May 2, 2023, the City provided notice to area residents of this request and that this matter would be brought before the Public Safety Commission at its May 16, 2023, meeting. To date, the City has received no response to the notifications.
The City Engineer presented an overview of the staff report at the May 16, 2023 Public Safety Commission Meeting and answered questions from the Commission. There were no comments made by members of the public in attendance. Following discussion among the Commission, a motion was made to approve the recommended installation of red curb parking restrictions; however, the motion failed due to lack of a second.
Public Works staff feels that this is a valid request and therefore has brought this item before the City Council for discussion and possible consideration.

10.7 Bidder will assume full responsibility for timely delivery at the location designated for receipt of Bids.

13.1 The City will have the right to reject all Bids.
13.2 The City will have the right to reject any Bid not accompanied by the required Bid Security or any other item required by the Bidding Documents, or a Bid which is in any other way materially incomplete or irregular. 14 AWARD
14.1 The City may retain all bids for a period of sixty (60) days for examination and comparison, and to delete any portion of the work from the contract.
14.2 The City will have the right to waive nonmaterial irregularities in a Bid and to accept the lowest responsive Bid as determined by The City.
14.3 The City will have the right to accept Alternates in any order or combination, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Bidding Documents.
14.4 The City will determine the low Bidder on the basis of the sum of the Lump Sum Base Bid plus all unit prices multiplied by their respective estimated quantities as stated in the Bid Form, if any, plus the Contractor Delay Damages multiplied by the “multiplier” as stated in the Bid Form, plus the amounts of all accepted Alternates.
14.4.1 Inclusion of Contractor Delay Damages within the Bid Form is solely for the purpose of determining the low bidder and establishing the City’s maximum daily liability as a result of City delays to Contractor, if any, and City has no obligation to pay any daily Contractor Delay Damages except as provided for in these Contract Documents for Compensable Delays.

14.5.2 Two originals of the Labor and Materials Bond.
14.5.3 Two originals of the Faithful Performance Bond.

14.5.8 Cost Breakdown.
14.6 Before award of the Contract, the City will notify Bidder in writing, if the City objects to a Subcontractor proposed by Bidder, in which case Bidder will propose a substitute acceptable to the City. Failure of the City to object to a proposed Subcontractor before award will not preclude the City from requiring replacement of any Subcontractor based upon information received subsequent to award, information which cannot be properly evaluated before award due to time constraints, or information relating to a failure to comply with the requirements of the Contract.
14.7 If Bidder submits the two original signed Agreements and all other items within ten (10) days after receiving the City’s notification, and all such items comply with the requirements of the Bidding Documents, the City will award the Contract to Bidder by signing the Agreement and returning a signed copy of the Agreement to Bidder.

15.1 Procedure to be followed by protester and City Clerk. -15-
Instructions to Bidders
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
I-8
A. Persons may challenge (the “Protester”) an award of a City of Bellflower Public Works contract (the “Project”) based upon whether the apparent lowest responsible bidder (the “Low Bidder”) is a “responsible bidder” as defined by applicable law.
B. The Protester must file a written statement with the City Clerk (the “Protest”) that sets forth the reasons for objection. The Protest must be filed with the City Clerk not later than seven (7) days after the bids were received and opened, or as soon as the Protester becomes aware of the ground for the Protest, whichever date occurs first. Any documents which support the objections must be filed together with the Protest.
C. Upon receiving the Protest, the City Clerk must mail a copy of the Protest to the Low Bidder, together with any supporting documents filed with the Protest. The City Clerk must include a letter of transmittal with the Protest which contains substantially the following information:
1. Notice that the Protest (and supporting documents, if any) was filed with the City Clerk;
2. Notice regarding the date, time, and place when and where the City Council will consider the bids received in connection with the Project; and
3. Notice that the Low Bidder may appear at the meeting and rebut the Protest including, without limitation, the ability to present evidence that the Low Bidder is qualified to perform the work and is the “lowest responsible bidder” on the Project.
D. In addition to the notice provided to the Low Bidder, the City Clerk must attempt to contact the Low Bidder by phone regarding the Protest. If the City Clerk is able to contact the Low Bidder, the City Clerk must provide, if the Low Bidder requests it, a facsimile copy of the Protest.
E. The City Clerk must also provide the Protester with notice regarding the date, time, and place when and where the City Council will meet to consider bids for the Project.
15.2 Procedure to be followed at the Hearing.
A. At the time set for consideration of the bids received in connection with the Project, the City Council must allow City staff to proceed with its presentation first.
B. Following the staff presentation, the City Council will allow the Protester to make his/her presentation. The Protester has the right to introduce any testimony or other evidence which could not, by the exercise of reasonable diligence, have been submitted at the time the Protest was filed. -16-
Instructions to Bidders
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
I-9
C. Following the Protester’s presentation, the Low Bidder has the right to cross-examine any witnesses who testified on behalf of the Protester and to rebut any other evidence introduced or produced by the Protester or City staff.
D. The City Council may, in its discretion, permit rebuttals and surrebuttals by the Protester and/or the Low Bidder.
E. At the conclusion of the hearing on the Protest, the City Council must decide whether, based on the evidence produced at the hearing, the Low Bidder is or is not the lowest responsible bidder.
F. In deciding where the Low Bidder is “responsible,” the City Council must consider the Low Bidder’s trustworthiness, and the quality, fitness and capacity of the Low Bidder to satisfactorily perform the work required to be performed for the Project. Evidence of pervasive and significant violations of the prevailing wage laws of the State of California by the Low Bidder on a City Public Works project or on public works projects involving other public agencies warrants a finding by the City Council that the Low Bidder is not the lowest responsible bidder.
G. If the Low Bidder is found to be “responsible” under the criteria referred to above, the City Council must award the contract for the Project to the Low Bidder, unless the City Council rejects all bids for the Project.
H. If the Low Bidder is found not be “responsible” under the criteria referred to above, the City Council must make a finding to that effect and must then award the contract to the second lowest responsible bidder, unless the City Council rejects all bids for the Project.

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
[MUST BE SUBMITTED WITH PROJECT PROPOSAL]
To be awarded this contract, the successful bidder must procure and maintain the following types of insurance with coverage limits complying, at a minimum, with the limits set forth below:
Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial general liability: $2,000,000
Business automobile liability $1,000,000
Workers compensation Statutory requirement.
Commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of ISO- CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above must be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies must be endorsed to name the City, its officials, and employees as “additional insureds” under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other insurance that may be carried by the City will be excess thereto. Such endorsement must be reflected on ISO Form No. CG 20 10 11 85 or 88, or equivalent. Such insurance must be on an “occurrence,” not a “claims made,” basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City.

Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of “A:VII.” Certificate(s) must reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage. The Consultant will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word “endeavor” with regard to any notice provisions.
By signing this form, the bidder certifies that it has read, understands, and will comply with these insurance requirements if it is selected as the City’s consultant. Failure to provide this insurance will render the bidder’s proposal “nonresponsive.”

Not later than the date designated in the City Notice to Proceed, the City will provide access to the real property and facilities upon which the Work is to be performed, including access to real property and facilities designated in the Contract Documents for the Contractor’s use.
6. SUBCONTRACTOR LISTING
-43-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-3
Except as provided in PCC §§ 4100, et seq., each bidder will file with its bid the name and location of the place of business of each subcontractor who will perform work or labor or render service to the prime contractor in or about the construction of the work or improvement, or a subcontractor licensed by the State of California who, under subcontract to the prime contractor, specifically fabricates and installs a portion of the work or improvement according to detailed drawings contained in the plans and specifications, in an amount in excess of one-half of one percent of the prime contractor’s total bid. Only one subcontractor will be listed for each portion of the work, which portion will be defined in the bid. In each instance, the nature and extent of the work to be sublet will be described. The failure of the Contractor to specify a subcontractor, or the listing of more than one subcontractor for the same portion of the work, constitutes an agreement by the Contractor that it is fully qualified to perform that portion itself and that it will perform that portion itself.
The Contractor must have the City Council’s written consent to substitute a subcontractor other than that designated in the original bid, to permit any subcontract to be assigned or transferred, or to allow a subcontract to be performed by other than the original subcontractor.
Subcontracting of work for which no subcontractor was designated in the original bid, and which is more than one-half of one percent of the work, will be allowed only in cases of public emergency or necessity, and then only after a finding reduced to writing as a public record of the City Council setting forth the facts constituting the emergency or necessity.
Violation of any of the above provisions will be considered a breach of the Contract, and the City may terminate the Contractor’s control over the Work, cancel the contract, or assess the Contractor a penalty of not more than 10 percent of the subcontract involved.
All persons engaged in the work, including subcontractors and their employees will be considered as employees of the Contractor. The Contractor will be solely responsible for and have control over construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, procedures, and the coordination of all portions of the Work. The City will deal directly with, and make all payments to, the prime Contractor.
When subcontracted work is not being prosecuted in a satisfactory manner, the Contractor will be notified to take corrective action. The Public Works Director may report the facts to the City Council. If the City Council so orders, and on receipt by the Contractor of written instructions from the Public Works Director, the subcontractor will be removed immediately from the Work. That subcontractor will not again be employed on the Work.
If licensure or proper licensure is controverted, then proof of licensure pursuant to this section must be made by production of a verified certificate of licensure from the Contractors’ State License Board which establishes that the individual or entity bringing the action was duly licensed in the proper classification of contractors at all times during the performance of any act or contract covered by the action. Nothing in this subdivision requires any person or entity controverting licensure or proper licensure to produce a -44-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-4
verified certificate. When licensure or proper licensure is controverted, the burden of proof to establish licensure or proper licensure is on the licensee.
The Contractor will submit experience statements for each subcontractor who will perform contract work that amounts to more than 10% of the Work.
7. CONTRACT BONDS
The Faithful Performance Bond and the Labor and Materials Bond must be paid and in effect for one year after the acceptance of the job by the City in accordance with the guarantee required by the Greenbook.
The term “surety bond,” “guarantee,” and “bond” also includes such other acceptable security, such as letters of credit or cash deposit agreements issued by responsible financial institutions, which are approved by the City Attorney. Sureties must be admitted to do business in California.
8. CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
The Contractor will maintain the following at the Work site:
• One as-built copy of the Plans and Specifications, in good order and marked to record current changes and selections made during construction. As-built plans must be submitted to the City representative for approval before the City pays a final retention amount.
• The current accepted Contract Schedule.
• Shop Drawings, Product Data, and Samples.
• Approved permits from other agencies, including Cal-OSHA permits for trench shoring.
• All other required submittals.
The Plans, Specifications, and other Contract Documents will govern the Work. The Contract Documents are intended to be complementary and cooperative and to describe and provide for a complete project. Anything in the Specifications and not on the Plans, or on the Plans and not in the Specifications, will be as though shown or mentioned in both.
Payment for any items on the plans for which there is no specific bid item will be included in the various items of work or in any item to which it is appurtenant.
If the Contractor performs any work which it knows or should know involves an error, inconsistency, or omission without notifying and obtaining written consent from the Public Works Director, the Contractor will be responsible for the resulting losses, including, without limitation, the costs of correcting defective work.
-45-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-5
9. PRECEDENCE OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
As the figured dimensions shown on the plans and in the specifications of the Contract may not in every case agree with scaled dimensions, the figured dimensions will be followed in preference to the scaled dimensions and plans to a large scale will be followed in preference to the plans to a small scale. Should it appear that the work to be done, or any of the matters relative thereto, are not sufficiently detailed or explained in the Contract, the Contractor will apply to the Public Works Director for such further explanations as may be necessary and will conform thereto as part of the Contract so far as may be consistent with the terms thereof. Any items shown on drawings and not mentioned in the specifications will be of like effect as if shown or mentioned in both.
10. ACCURACY OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
Although it is believed that much of the information pertaining to conditions and existing utilities that may affect the cost of the Work will be shown on the Plans or indicated in the Specifications, the City does not warrant the completeness or accuracy of such information.
The Contractor will carefully study and compare each of the Contract Documents with the others and with information furnished by the City and will promptly report in writing to the Public Works Director any errors, inconsistencies, or omissions in the Contract Documents or inconsistencies with applicable law observed by the Contractor.
The Contractor will take field measurements, verify field conditions, perform soil investigations, and carefully compare with the Contract Documents such field measurements, conditions, and other information known to the Contractor before commencing the Work. Errors, inconsistencies, or omissions discovered at any time will be promptly reported in writing to the Public Works Director.
11. RIGHT-OF-WAY
When the Contractor arranges for additional temporary work areas and facilities, the Contractor will provide the City with proof that the additional work areas or facilities were left in a condition satisfactory to the owner(s) of said work areas or facilities before acceptance of the work.
12. SURVEYING
The Contractor will provide for all construction surveying required to layout, monitor and complete the work. The surveying will be performed by a Land Surveyor or Civil Engineer authorized to practice land surveying by the State of California.
The Project Benchmark is shown on the plans. The Contractor will establish all necessary control lines based on the plans and record information on file with the County of Los Angeles Surveyor and the Public Works Director.
It is the Contractor’s responsibility to protect the survey control as shown on the plans. If the survey control is destroyed or disturbed during construction, the Contractor will -46-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-6
provide for resetting them and file appropriate documents with the County of Los Angeles at the direction of the Public Works Director.
Computations, survey notes, and other data used to accomplish the work will be neat, legible and accurate. Copies of all computations, survey notes, and other data (electronic format may be required) will be furnished to the Public Works Director before beginning work that requires their use.
13. MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT
Construction Survey – Unless a separate bid item is provided, payment will be considered included in the other items of the bid and no additional payment will be made therefore.
14. BASIS FOR ESTABLISHING COSTS
Regardless of ownership, the rates to be used in determining the equipment usage costs will not exceed those listed for the same or similar equipment in the California State Department of Transportation publication of Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rates effective for the period of usage.
15. MARK UP
Work by Contractor. The following percentages will be added to the Contractor’s costs and will constitute the markup for all overhead and profits.
Labor .................................................... 20 Materials .................................................... 15 Equipment Rental .................................................... 15 Other Items and Expenditures .............................................. 15
To the sum of the costs and markups provided for in this subsection, 1 percent will be added as compensation for bonding. No other formula, e.g., the Eichleay or other method, may be used to calculate daily damages for office overhead, profit, or other purported loss.
Work by Subcontractors. When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a Subcontractor, the markup established in this Section will be applied to the Subcontractor’s actual cost of such work. A markup of 10 percent on the first $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work and a markup of 5 percent on work added in excess of $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work may be added by the Contractor.
In the event that City becomes liable to Contractor for compensable delays, City agrees to pay Contractor the daily Contractor Delay Damages set forth in the Bid Form or Contractor’s actual daily delay damages, whichever is less, for each day of Compensable Delay as provided for by these Contract Documents.
16. DAILY REPORTS BY CONTRACTOR
-47-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-7
If disagreement continues regarding extra work, the Contractor may seek compensation in accordance with the Claims procedure. Daily Reports required by this subsection must be made part of the Claim as supporting data for the Claim.
17. CHANGED CONDITIONS
If the Contractor encounters concealed or unknown conditions that differ materially from those anticipated or expected (“changed conditions”), the Contractor will immediately notify the Public Works Director in writing of such changed conditions (upon discovery and before disturbing such changed conditions), so that the Public Works Director can determine if such conditions require design details that differ from those design details shown in the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding any other time period, the Contractor is liable to City for any extra costs incurred as a result of the Contractor’s failure to promptly give such notice.
Changed conditions include, without limitation, the following:
• Subsurface or latent physical conditions differing materially from those represented in the Contract Documents;
• Unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character being performed; and
• Material differing from what is represented in the Contract which the Contractor believes may be hazardous waste as defined in California Health & Safety Code § 25117 that is required to be removed to a Class I, II, or III disposal site in accordance with applicable law.
The Public Works Director will promptly investigate conditions that appear to be changed conditions. The Public Works Director’s decision, and any dispute regarding that decision, will be made in accordance with the Greenbook except that the Public Works Director will render a decision promptly.
Any information provided pursuant to INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO BIDDERS is subject to the following provisions:
• The information is made available for the Bidders’ convenience and is not a part of the Contract.
• The City has not determined the accuracy or completeness of such information and all such information is made available to Bidders without any representation or warranty by the City whatsoever as to its accuracy, completeness, or relevancy.
• Bidders will independently evaluate such information for their use and will be solely responsible for use or interpretation of such information. Any such use or interpretation will not be the basis of any claim against the City. -48-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-8
18. DISPUTED WORK
If the Contractor and the City do not reach agreement on disputed work, the City may direct the Contractor to proceed with the work. Any payment for the disputed work will be determined pursuant to the claims procedures in these Standard Specifications.
Although not to be construed as proceeding under extra work provisions, the Contractor will keep and furnish records of disputed work as required by the Contract Documents.
19. INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS
Unless otherwise specified, inspection at the source of production for such materials and fabricated items as bituminous paving mixtures, structural concrete, fabricated metal products, cast metal products, welding, reinforced and unreinforced concrete pipe, application of protective coatings, and similar shop and plant operations is not required.
A certificate of compliance, signed by an authorized officer of the producer, certifying compliance with the contract documents will be submitted for all of the following materials: steel pipe, sizes less than 18 inches; vitrified clay pipe; asbestos cement pipe; cast iron pipe; reinforced concrete pipe; non-reinforced concrete pipe; and PVC sewer and water pipe; subject to sampling and testing by City.
Standard items of equipment, such as electric motors, conveyors, plumbing fittings and fixtures, lumber, plywood, and so on, are subject to inspection at the job site.
All other equipment items will be inspected and tested in accordance with the contract documents.
The City does not provide full time inspection. The Contractor will provide 24-hour minimum notice for each inspection required by the work unless other arrangements have been agreed upon, in writing, with the Public Works Director. Any inspection required outside of normal working hours and days, including holidays, will be at the Contractor’s cost at rates established by the City.
20. INSPECTION OF MATERIALS NOT PRODUCED LOCALLY
Contractor purchased materials, fabricated items, and equipment, produced at sources located more than 50 miles outside the corporate limits of the City, and which are specified to be inspected in the Contract Documents, will be inspected by inspectors or testing laboratories arranged for and paid for by City. Report of such inspection must be submitted to the City. If any item inspected fails to meet the specified criteria, the Contractor will pay all costs for reinspection, and such costs may be deducted from payments due to the Contractor.
21. TRADE NAMES OR EQUALS
Whenever any material, product, equipment, or service is specified by brand, trade, or proprietary name, the item so specified will be deemed to be followed by the words “or equal.”

• Written request with explanation of why the product should be considered as an equal product.
• Material specifications.
• Technical specifications.
• Test data.
• Samples.
• Comparison chart of key specifications of the “equal” item against similar specifications of the specified item.
• Work locations and reference telephone numbers of at least three (3) locations where the proposed “equal” item has been recently installed under similar conditions.
• Warranty data.
The Bidder will be notified by the Public Works Director whether or not the proposed “equal” product is acceptable to the City five calendar days before the date of the bid opening. Failure to submit all required documentation and/or submittal of incomplete documents may result in the City’s rejection of the proposed “equal” product without further consideration.
22. PROTECTION
If the Contractor, while performing the Work, discovers utility facilities not identified correctly or not shown in the contract plans or specifications by the City, the Contractor will immediately notify the City and utility owner in writing.
23. RESPONSIBILITY OF UTILITY REMOVAL OR RELOCATION
The City is responsible to arrange for the removal, repair, or relocation of existing utilities located within the project limits if such utilities are not correctly identified in the contract plans or specifications by the City. The City has sole discretion to perform repairs or relocation work or permit the Contractor to do such repairs or relocation.
24. DELAYS
Actual loss is understood to include no items of expense other than idle time of equipment and necessary payments for idle time of workers, cost of extra moving of equipment, and cost of longer hauls. Compensation for idle time of equipment and idle time of workers will be determined by these Standard Specifications and no markup will be added in either case for overhead and profit. The cost of extra moving of equipment and the cost of longer hauls will be paid for as extra work.
25. CALCULATING IDLE TIME
-50-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-10
Equipment and worker idle time is calculated in accordance with these Standard Specifications and the Greenbook; it is based upon the actual normal working time during which the delay condition exists, but in no case will exceed 8 hours in any one day. The days for which compensation will be paid will be the calendar days, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, during the existence of the delay.
26. CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE AND COMMENCEMENT OF WORK
A. Pre-Construction Meeting:
After contract award, City will arrange for a pre-construction meeting to discuss the construction of the project. City will invite utility agencies and the contractor will arrange for all of its sub-contractors to attend the meeting.
B. Contract Schedule
After notification of award and before starting any work, the Contractor will submit a Contract Schedule to the Public Works Director for review, as required by these Standard Specifications within 15 calendar days of award.
C. Contract Schedule Content
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedule, will meet the following requirements:
• Schedules must be suitable for monitoring progress of the Work. • Schedules must provide necessary data about the time for the Public Works Director’s decisions.
• Schedules must be sufficiently detailed to demonstrate adequate planning for the Work.
• Schedules must represent a practical plan to complete the Work within the Contract Time.
• Schedules must show the critical path method for completing the Work.
The Public Works Director’s review of the form and general content of the Contract Schedule and any updated Contract Schedules is only for the purpose of determining if the listed requirements are satisfied, nothing more.
D. Effect of Contract Schedule
The Contract Schedule, and any updated Contract Schedules, will represent a practical plan to complete the Work within the Contract Time. Extension of any schedule beyond the Contract Time will not be acceptable. Schedules showing the Work completed in less than the Contract may be acceptable if judged by the Public Works Director to be practical. Acceptance of such a schedule by the Public Works Director will not change the Contract Time. The Contract Time, not the Contract Schedule, will control in determining liquidated damages payable by the Contractor and in determining any delay.
-51-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-11
If a schedule showing the Work completed in less than the Contract Time is accepted, the Contractor will not be entitled to extensions of the Contract Time for Excusable Delays or Compensable Delays or to adjustments of the Contract Sum for Compensable Delays until such delays extend the completion of the Work beyond the expiration of the Contract Time.
The Contractor will plan, develop, supervise, control, and coordinate the performance of the Work so that its progress and the sequence and timing of Work activities conform to the current accepted Contract Schedule. The Contractor will continuously obtain from Subcontractors information and data about the planning for and progress of the Work and the delivery of equipment, will coordinate and integrate such information and data into updated Contract Schedules, and will monitor the progress of the Work and the delivery of equipment. The Contractor will act as the expeditor of potential and actual delays, interruptions, hindrances, or disruptions for its own forces and those forces of Subcontractors. The Contractor will cooperate with the Public Works Director in developing the Contract Schedule and updated Contract Schedules.
The Public Works Director’s review and comments about any schedule or scheduling data will not relieve the Contractor from its sole responsibility to plan for, perform, and complete the Work within the Contract Time. Review and comments about any schedule will not transfer responsibility for any schedule to the Public Works Director or City nor imply their agreement with (1) any assumption upon which such schedule is based or (2) any matter underlying or contained in such schedule.
The Public Works Director’s failure to discover errors or omissions in schedules that have been reviewed, or to inform the Contractor that the Contractor, Subcontractors, or others are behind schedule, or to direct or enforce procedures for complying with the Contract Schedule will not relieve the Contractor from its sole responsibility to perform and complete the Work within the Contract Time and will not be a cause for an adjustment of the Contract Time or the Contract Sum.
The Contractor will perform the Work in accordance with the currently accepted Contract Schedule.
E. Commencement of Contract Time
The Contract Time will commence when the City issues a Notice to Proceed. The Work will start on the date specified in the Notice to Proceed and within a maximum of 15 calendar days after the date of the Notice to Proceed and be diligently prosecuted to completion with the time provided in the Specifications.
27. DEFAULT BY CONTRACTOR
A. General
Should the Contractor fail to begin delivery of material and equipment, to commence the Work within the time specified, to maintain the rate of delivery of material, to execute the Work in the manner and at such locations as specified, or fail to maintain the Work schedule (as determined by the current accepted Contract Schedule) which will ensure -52-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-12
the City’s interest, or if the Contractor is not carrying out the intent of the Contract, the City may serve written notice upon the Contractor and the Surety on its Faithful Performance Bond demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract.
B. Termination of Contractor’s Control Over the Work
City may terminate the Contractor’s control over the Work without liability for damages when, in the City’s opinion, the Contractor is not complying in good faith, has become insolvent, or has assigned or subcontracted any part of the Work without the City’s consent. Should such termination occur, the Contractor will be paid the actual amount due based on Contract Unit Prices or lump sums bid and the quantity and quality of the Work completed at the time of termination, less damages caused to the City by the Contractor’s action or inaction.
In the event of such termination of control, the City may do any one, or combination of, the following:
• Serve written notice upon the Surety on its Faithful Performance Bond demanding satisfactory compliance with the Contract. In such event the Surety will, within 5 days, assume control and perform the Work as successor to the Contractor; • The City may perform the Work itself and deduct the cost thereof from any payment due to the Contractor;
• The City may replace the Contractor with a different contractor to complete the work and deduct the cost thereof from any payment due to the Contractor.
Nothing herein will waive, or serve as a limitation upon, any additional remedy the City may have under these Contract Documents or applicable law.
C. Surety’s Assumption of Control
Should the Surety assume any part of the Work, it will take the Contractor’s place in all respects for that part and will be paid by the City for all work performed by it in accordance with the Contract. If the Surety assumes the entire Contract, all money due the Contractor at the time of its default will be payable to the Surety as the Work progresses, subject to the terms of the Contract.
If the Surety does not assume control and perform the Work within five days after receiving notice of cancellation, or fails to continue to comply, the City may exclude the Surety from the premises. The City may then take possession of all material and equipment and complete the Work by City’s forces, by letting the unfinished work to another contractor, or by a combination of such methods. In any event, the cost of completing the Work will be charged against the Contractor and its Surety and may be deducted from any money due or becoming due from the City. If the sums due under the Contract are insufficient for completion, the Contractor or Surety will pay to the City within five days of completion, all costs in excess of the sums due.
The provisions of this subsection will be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the City under applicable law.

28. DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
A. General
If delays are caused by unforeseen events beyond the control of the Contractor, such delays will entitle the Contractor to an extension of time as provided herein, but the Contractor will not be entitled to damages or additional payment due to such delays except as otherwise provided herein. Excusable delay may include war, earthquakes exceeding 3.5 on the Richter Scale, government regulation, labor disputes outside the contemplation of the parties, strikes outside the contemplation of the parties, fires, floods, changes to the Work as identified herein, or other specific events that may be further described in the Specifications.
Delays to the project caused by labor disputes or strikes involving trades not directly related to the project, or involving trades not affecting the project as a whole will not warrant an extension of time.
The City will not grant an extension of time for a delay by the Contractor’s inability to obtain materials unless the Contractor furnishes to the Public Works Director documentary proof. The proof must be provided in a timely manner in accordance with the sequence of the Contractor’s operations and accepted construction schedule.
Should delays be caused by events other than those included herein, the Public Works Director may, but is not required to, deem an extension of time to be in the City’s best interests.
B. Extensions of Time
If granted, extensions of time will be based upon the effect of delays to the critical path of the Work as determined by the current accepted Contract Schedule. Delays to minor portions of the Work that do not affect the critical path will not be eligible for extensions of time.
C. Payment for Delays to Contractor
Any payment for compensable delay will be based upon actual costs excluding, without limitation, what damages, if any, the Contractor may have reasonably avoided. The Contractor understands that this is the sole basis for recovering delay damages and explicitly waives any right to calculate daily damages for office overhead, profit, or other purported loss, using different formulas including, without limitation, the Eichleay Formula.
D. Written Notice and Report
If the Contractor desires payment for a delay or an extension of time, it will give the Public Works Director written notice of such request not later than the time limit set forth in the Proposal for submitting a claim after the event or occurrence giving rise to a delay claim. -54-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-14
Failure to submit a written request within such amount of time will result in the Contractor waiving its delay claim.
Any claim for payment or an extension of time must be in the form required by the “Claims” sections of these Standard Specifications.
In no event will the City grant the Contractor an extension of time if the delay is within the Contract Time as identified by the Contract Documents.
29. WORKDAYS AND WORKING HOURS
City Hall is ordinarily open from Monday thru Thursday during normal working hours (8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.) and alternating Fridays (8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.). It is closed on the following holidays:
New Year’s Day - January 1
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - January 18
President’s Day - February 16
Memorial Day - May 31
Independence Day - July 4
Labor Day - September 6
Veterans’ Day - November 11
Thanksgiving - November 25
Friday after Thanksgiving - November 26
Christmas Eve - December 24
Christmas - December 25
New Year’s Eve - December 31
If the Contractor requests an inspection on a day when City Hall is closed, then the Contractor will have to reimburse the City for the costs of inspection. The Contractor must request such an inspection at least 48 hours in advance. City inspections during hours when City Hall is closed are subject to inspection overtime fees to be paid for by the Contractor. Friday work that does not require inspection can be done without an inspection fee and must be discussed with City staff before its occurrence. If the Contractor does construction on a Friday or a day when City Hall is closed, that day is counted as a project working day.
On workdays, Contractor’s activities will be confined to the hours between 7:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Traffic may only be restricted between the hours of 7:30 am and 2:00 pm and subject to the review of the City Manager.
A. Night Work
Except as otherwise provided in the Technical Specifications or separate permit, City does not permit Work between the hours of 4 p.m. and 7:30 a.m. of the following day.
B. Weekend and Holiday Work
-55-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-15
The Public Works Director may, but is not required to, allow the Contractor to work on Saturdays, Sundays and City Holidays.
30. COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
The Work will be inspected by the Public Works Director for acceptance upon the Public Works Director receiving the Contractor’s written assertion that the Work is complete.
If, in the Public Works Director’s judgment, the Work is complete and is ready for acceptance, the Public Works Director will accept the Work on behalf of the City in the manner prescribed by the City. Once a Notice of Completion is issued, the Contractor is relieved from responsibility to protect the Work.
All work will be guaranteed by the Contractor against defective workmanship and materials furnished by the Contractor for a minimum period of one year from the date the Work was completed. The Contractor will replace or repair any such defective work in a manner satisfactory to the Public Works Director, after notice to do so from the Public Works Director, and within the time specified in the notice. If the Contractor fails to make such replacement or repairs within the time specified in the notice, the City may perform this work and the Contractor’s sureties will be liable for the cost thereof.
31. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
If all the Work is not completed before or upon the expiration of the Contract Time, City will sustain damage. Since it is and will be impracticable to determine the actual damage which the City will sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay, it is agreed that the Contractor will pay to the City the sum specified in the Proposal for each and every calendar day beyond the time prescribed to complete the work not as a penalty, but as a predetermined liquidated damage. The Contractor agrees to pay such liquidated damages as are herein provided, and in case the same are not paid, agrees that the City may deduct the amount thereof from any money due or that may become due to the Contractor under the contract.
Unless otherwise specified, liquidated damages will be $1,000 per calendar day.
32. DISPUTES AND CLAIMS; PROCEDURE
A. General
Consistent with PCC §§ 9204 and 10240.6, “Claim” means a written demand or assertion by the Contractor that seeks an adjustment or interpretation of the terms of the Contract Documents, payment of money, extension of time, or other relief with respect to the Contract Documents, including a determination of disputes or matters in question between the City and the Contractor arising out of or related to the Contract Documents or the performance of the Work, and claims alleging an unforeseen condition or an act, error, or omission by the City, the Public Works Director, their agents or employees. “Claim” does not mean, and the Claims procedures herein do not apply, to the following:

• Claims respecting personal injury, death, reimbursement, or other compensation arising out of or resulting from liability for personal injury or death. • Claims respecting a latent defect, breach of warranty, or guarantee to repair. • Claims respecting stop notices.
If a Claim is subject to the Change Order procedures, the Claim arises upon the issuance of a written final decision denying in whole or in part the Contractor’s Change Order Request. If a Claim is not subject to the Change Order Procedures, the Claim arises when the Contractor discovers, or reasonably should discover, the condition or event giving rise to the Claim. The requirements of this Section are intended to supplement and implement PCC § 9204, a copy of which is attached for reference. Accordingly, pursuant to PCC § 9204(f), the parties agree to utilize these Standard Specifications.

• A detailed justification for any remedy or relief sought by the Claim, including to the extent applicable, the following:
If the Claim involves extra work, a detailed cost breakdown claimed. The breakdown must be provided even if the costs claimed have not been incurred when the Claim is submitted.
To the extent costs have been incurred when the Claim is submitted, the Claim must include actual cost records (including, without limitation, payroll records, material and rental invoices) demonstrating that costs claimed have actually been incurred.
To the extent costs have not yet been incurred at the time the Claim is submitted, actual cost records must be submitted on a current basis not less than once a week during any time period costs are incurred. A cost record will be considered current if submitted within seven calendar days of the date the cost reflected in the record is incurred. At the Public Works Director’s request, claimed extra costs may be subject to further verification procedures (such as having an inspector verify the performance of alleged extra work on a daily basis).
-57-

ATTACHED CLAIM FOR ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION OR EXTENSION OF TIME, AND KNOW ITS CONTENTS, AND SAID CLAIM IS MADE IN GOOD FAITH; THE SUPPORTING DATA IS TRUTHFUL AND ACCURATE; THAT THE AMOUNT
REQUESTED ACCURATELY REFLECTS THE CONTRACT ADJUSTMENT FOR WHICH THE CONTRACTOR BELIEVES CITY IS LIABLE; AND, FURTHER, THAT I AM FAMILIAR WITH CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE § 72 AND CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE § 12650, ET SEQ., PERTAINING TO FALSE CLAIMS, AND FURTHER KNOW
AND UNDERSTAND THAT SUBMITTING OR CERTIFYING A FALSE CLAIM MAY LEAD TO FINES, IMPRISONMENT, AND OTHER SEVERE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES.”
C. Claims Submitted to Public Works Director
Within 30 calendar days after the circumstances giving rise to a Claim occur, the Contractor will submit its Claim to the Public Works Director for a decision. Regardless of any Claim submittal, or any dispute regarding a Claim, unless otherwise directed by the Public Works Director, the Contractor will not cause any delay, cessation, or termination of the Work, but will diligently proceed with the performing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Except as otherwise provided, the City will continue to make payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.
D. Claim Is Prerequisite to Other Remedy
The Contractor certifies that it is familiar with PCC § 10240.2 and understands and agrees that submitting a Claim in accordance with these Specifications is an express condition precedent to the Contractor’s right to otherwise pursue a claim whether through -58-

alternative dispute resolution or by litigation. Should the Contractor fail to submit a claim in accordance with these Specifications, including the time limits set forth herein, it will waive any right to a remedy, whether in law or equity, it might otherwise have pursuant to the Contract Documents or applicable law.
E. Decision on Claims
The Public Works Director will promptly review Claims submitted by the Contractor in accordance with these Standard Specifications. Should the Public Works Director require additional supporting evidence to evaluate the claim, the Public Works Director will request such additional information in writing. Any such requested data will be furnished not later than 10 calendar days after the Contractor receives the Public Works Director’s request.
The Public Works Director will render a decision not later than 30 calendar days after either receiving the Claim or the deadline for furnishing additional supporting data, whichever is later. If the Claim amount is more than $50,000, the time period will be extended to 60 days. If the Public Works Director fails to render a decision within the time period established herein, then the Claim will be deemed denied. The Public Works Director’s decision will be final and binding unless appealed in accordance with these Specifications.
The Public Works Director’s decision on a Claim will include a statement substantially as follows:
“This is a decision pursuant to the Standard Specifications of your contract. If you are dissatisfied with the decision and have complied with the procedural requirements for asserting claims, you may have the right to alternative dispute resolution or litigation.
Should you fail to take appropriate action within 30 calendar days of the date of this decision, the decision will become final and binding and not subject to further appeal.”
F. Appeal of Public Works Director’s Decision
Should the Contractor dispute the Public Works Director’s decision, then the Contractor must appeal that decision to the City Manager within 30 calendar days of receiving the Public Works Director’s decision.
The City Manager will address disputes or claims within 30 calendar days after receiving such request and all necessary supporting data. The City Manager’s decision on the dispute or claim will be the City’s final decision.
If the Contractor disputes the City Manager’s decision, then the Contractor must demand alternative dispute resolution in accordance with this Section and the PCC within 30 calendar days of the City’s final decision.
G. Mediation
If the City and the Contractor agree, disputes between the parties may be submitted to non-binding mediation. If the parties cannot agree to an alternative form of mediation, then -59-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-19
mediation will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Construction Industry Mediation Rules, unless the use of such rules are waived by mutual stipulation of both parties.
The parties may, but are not required to be, represented by counsel in mediation.
The requirement for mediation will not alter or modify the time limitations otherwise provided for claims and no conduct or settlement negotiation during mediation will be considered a waiver of the City’s right to assert that claim procedures were not followed.
H. Arbitration
If the City and Contractor do not agree to mediation, then disputes will be submitted to neutral non-binding (except as provided herein) arbitration. Arbitration will be conducted in accordance with PCC § 10240.3. Any decision rendered by an arbitrator will be consistent with PCC § 10240.8.
The exclusive venue for any arbitration will be in Los Angeles County.
The expenses and fees of the arbitrators and the administrative fees, if any, will be divided among the parties equally. Each party will pay its own counsel fees, witness fees, and other expenses incurred for its own benefit.
I. When Arbitration Decision Becomes Binding
The decision rendered by the arbitrator will become binding upon the parties unless appealed to the Los Angeles County Superior Court pursuant to PCC § 10240.12 within 30 calendar days of the decision. If subsequent litigation results in an award to the party appealing the arbitration that is less than or equal to that of the arbitration decision, or if the litigation results in a decision in favor of the nonappealing party, then the party appealing the arbitration will pay the nonappealing party’s attorney’s fees and court costs.
J. Appeal to Superior Court; Waiver of Jury Trial
Should a party timely object to the arbitration decision, it may file a petition with the Los Angeles County Superior Court in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure (“CCP”) §§ 1285, et seq. Notwithstanding the limitations set forth in CCP § 1286.2, the court may vacate, correct, or adjust an arbitration award, and enter judgment in accordance with CCP § 1287.4, for any legal or equitable basis including, without limitation, error of law. The court will apply the substantial evidence standard of review when considering the appeal of an objecting party.

AND THE CONTRACTOR WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL FOR THESE DISPUTES OR ISSUES.
33. PREVAILING WAGES
The Contractor will post at appropriate conspicuous points at the site of the project a schedule showing determinations of the Director of Industrial Relations of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. It will be the Contractor’s responsibility to obtain copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages. One source that may be used is the California Department of Industrial Relations website which is currently located at www.dir.ca.gov , or by calling the Prevailing Wage Unit at (415) 703-4774.
Attention is directed to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the employment of apprentices by the Contractor or any subcontractor.
Labor Code § 1777.5 requires the Contractor or subcontractor employing tradesmen in any apprenticeship occupation to apply to the joint apprenticeship committee nearest the site of the public works project and which administers the apprenticeship program in that trade for a certificate of approval. The certificate will also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases will not be less than one to five except:
• When employment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 calendar days before the request for certificate, or
• When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of one to five, or
• When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis state-wide or locally, or
• When the Contractor provides evidence that the Contractor employs registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen.
The Contractor is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if the Contractor employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other contractors on the public works site are making such contributions.
The Contractor and any subcontractor will comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices.
Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex-officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

34. RECORD OF WAGES PAID: INSPECTION
Every Contractor and subcontractor will keep an accurate certified payroll records showing the name, occupation, and the actual per diem wages paid to each worker employed in connection with the Work. The record will be kept open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the body awarding the contract and to the Department of Industrial Relations. If requested by the City, the Contractor will provide copies of the records at its cost.
35. LIABILITY INSURANCE
Contractor must comply with City’s insurance requirements for public works projects which are either adopted by City Council resolution or promulgated by the City Manager, or designee (the “Insurance Matrix”). Contractor will provide endorsements or other proof of coverage for contractual liability in accordance with the Insurance Matrix.
The cost of such insurance will be included in the various items of work in the Contractor’s bid and no additional compensation for purchasing insurance or additional coverage needed to meet these requirements will be allowed.
In the event that any required insurance is reduced in coverage, cancelled for any reason, voided or suspended, Contractor agrees that City may arrange for insurance coverage as specified, and Contractor further agrees that administrative and premium costs may be deducted from payments due to the Contractor. Contractor will not be allowed to work until alternate coverage is arranged.
Coverage will not extend to any indemnity coverage for the active negligence of the additional insured if the agreement to indemnify the additional insured would be invalid under Civil Code § 2782(b).
36. INDEMNIFICATION AND DEFENSE
In addition to all other provisions of the Contract Documents including, without limitation, the Greenbook, as between the City and Contractor, Contractor will take and assume all responsibility for the work as stated herein or shown on the plans.
The Contractor will bear all losses and damages directly or indirectly resulting to it, to the City, its officers, employees, and agents, or to others on account of the performance or character of the work, unforeseen difficulties, accidents, traffic control, job site maintenance, or any other causes whatsoever.
The Contractor will assume the defense of and indemnify and save harmless the City of Bellflower, its officers, employees, and agents, from and against any and all claims, losses, damage, expenses and liability of every kind, nature, and description, directly or indirectly arising from the performance of the contract or work, regardless of responsibility for negligence, and from any and all claims, losses, damage, expenses, and liability, howsoever the same may be caused, resulting directly, or indirectly from the nature of the work covered by the contract, regardless of responsibility for -62-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-22
negligence, to the fullest extent permitted by law. In accordance with Civil Code § 2782, nothing in this Section will require defense or indemnification for death, bodily injury, injury to property, or any other loss, damage or expense arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City, or its agents, servants or independent contractors who are directly responsible to the City, or for defects in design furnished by such persons.
Moreover, nothing in this Section will apply to impose on the Contractor, or to relieve the City from, liability for active negligence of the City.
The City does not, and will not, waive any rights against the Contractor which it may have by reason of the aforesaid hold harmless agreements because of the acceptance by the City, or deposit with City by Contractor, of any insurance policies. This hold harmless agreement by the Contractor applies to all damages and claims for damages of every kind suffered or alleged to have been suffered by reasons of any of the aforesaid operations of Contractor, or any subcontractor, regardless of whether or not such insurance policies are determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims for damages.
No act by the City, or its representatives in processing or accepting any plans, in releasing any bond, in inspecting or accepting any work, or of any other nature, will in any respect relieve the Contractor or anyone else from any legal responsibility, obligation or liability he might otherwise have.
37. PERMITS
The Contractor will apply for permits required by the City. These permits including, without limitation, a business license, will be issued on a “no-fee” basis. However, the Contractor must pay for and obtain all other permits from other governmental and utility agencies necessitated by their operations but cannot charge the City an administrative fee for obtaining such permits.
All bonding fees, (overweight and oversized vehicle permit fees) inspection permit fees or other fees charged or required for such permits must be paid by the Contractor. These costs will be included in the bid item provided. If no bid item is included, costs will be included in the various items of work, and no additional payment will be allowed.
38. CLEANUP AND DUST CONTROL
On any construction project requiring trenching within public streets and for which total trenching is in excess of 500 feet, the Contractor will be required to sweep the worksite utilizing a pick-up type of street sweeper a minimum of once daily.
39. WATERING
Water for dust control caused by Contractor’s operations or the passage of traffic through the work will be applied as necessary or as directed by the Public Works Director. Water for the above or other purposes may be obtained from any approved source. If the Contractor chooses to use a City fire hydrant, Contractor must contact the appropriate water purveyor to pay deposits and fees. Costs of water to be used will be included in the cost of various bid items.

40. WATER POLLUTION CONTROL
The following requirements are added to establish storm water and urban runoff pollution prevention controls.
Storm or construction generated water containing sediment such as, construction waste, soil, slurry from concrete/asphalt concrete saw cutting operations, clean-up of concrete transit mixers or other pollutants from construction sites and parking areas will be retained or controlled on site and will not be permitted to enter the storm drain system.
Temporary sediment filtering systems such as sandbags, silt fences, or gravel berms will be utilized to trap sediment so that only filtered water enters the City’s storm drain system. Proper clean up and disposal of settled sediment and the filtering system will be the responsibility of the Contractor.
Discharge of concrete transit mixer wash water on to approved dirt areas (sub-grade area designated for new concrete construction for example) is acceptable. Discharge on to private property, parkway areas, or the street is not permitted.
Plastic or other impervious covering will be installed where appropriate to prevent erosion of an otherwise unprotected area, along with any other runoff control devices deemed appropriate by the City.
Excavated soil stored on the site will be covered in a manner that minimizes the amount of sediments running into the storm drain system, street or adjoining properties.
No washing of construction or other industrial vehicles and equipment will be allowed adjacent to a construction site. During the rainy season (October 15 to April 15), Contractor will keep at the construction site sufficient materials and labor to install temporary sediment filtering systems and other water pollution prevention control measures. These control measures will be in place and maintained by the Contractor on a daily basis on days when construction is not in progress due to rain.
All costs associated with water pollution control will be borne by the Contractor. Any expense incurred by the City to expeditiously respond to storm drain contamination resulting from Contractor’s failure to implement water pollution control measures will be charged to the Contractor.
41. PROTECTION AND RESTORATION OF EXISTING IMPROVEMENTS
Where existing traffic striping, pavement markings, and curb markings are damaged or their reflectively reduced by the Contractor’s operations, such striping or markings will also be considered as existing improvements and the Contractor will replace such improvements.
Relocations, repairs, replacements, or re-establishments will be at least equal to the existing improvements and will match such improvements in finish and dimensions unless otherwise specified.

Building News, 3055 Overland Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90034, telephone 310-474- 7771.
43. TRAFFIC AND ACCESS
The Contractor will notify the occupants of all affected properties at least 48 hours before any temporary obstruction of access. Vehicular access to property line will be maintained except as required for construction for a reasonable period of time. No overnight closure of any driveway will be allowed except as permitted by the Public Works Director.
At least one, 12 foot wide, traffic lane will be provided for each direction of travel on all streets at all times except as permitted by the Public Works Director. The traffic lanes will be maintained on pavement and will remain unobstructed. All work requiring that a lane be closed, or a lane moved right or left will be noticed to the traveling public by use of City approved lighted arrow boards.
Clearances from traffic lanes will be five feet to the edge of any excavation and two feet to the face of any curb, pole, barricade, delineator, or other vertical obstruction.
One four-foot-wide paved pedestrian walkway will be maintained in the parkway area on each side of all streets. The clearance from the pedestrian walkway to any traffic lane will be five feet. Pedestrians and vehicles will be protected from all excavations, material storage, and/or obstructions by the placement of an adequate number of lighted barricades (minimum two) at each location, one at each end of the obstruction or excavation), which will have flashing lights during darkness. Barricades will be Type I or Type II and lights will be Type A per the CA MUTCD.
44. STREET CLOSURES, DETOURS, BARRICADES
Street closures will not be allowed except as specifically permitted by the Public Works Director.
The Contractor will prepare any traffic control or detour plans that may be required as directed by the Public Works Director. Lane transitions will not be sharper than a taper of 30 to one.
Temporary traffic channelization will be accomplished with barricades or delineators.
Temporary striping will not be allowed unless specifically permitted by the Public Works Director. The Contractor will prepare any plans that may be required for temporary striping to the satisfaction of the Public Works Director. In no event will temporary striping be allowed on finish pavement surfaces, which are to remain.
Where access to driveway or street crossings need to be maintained, minimum 1 1/4- inch-thick steel plating will be used to bridge the trench. All steel plating will have -65-
Standard Specifications

SS-25
temporary asphalt concrete 1:12 minimum sloped ramps to assist vehicles to cross comfortably over the plates and have a non-skid surface. Plates subject to vehicle high traffic speeds and in residential areas will be secured by welding at the discretion of the Public Works Director.
45. PROTECTION OF THE PUBLIC
It is part of the service required of the Contractor to make whatever provisions are necessary to protect the public. The Contractor will use foresight and will take such steps and precautions as his operations warrant to protect the public from danger, loss of life or loss of property, which would result from interruption or contamination of public water supply, interruption of other public service, or from the failure of partly completed work or partially removed facilities. Unusual conditions may arise on the Project which will require that immediate and unusual provisions be made to protect the public from danger or loss of life, or damage to life and property, due directly or indirectly to prosecution of work under this contract.
Whenever, in the opinion of the Public Works Director, an emergency exists against which the Contractor has not taken sufficient precaution for the public safety, protection of utilities and protection of adjacent structures or property, which may be damaged by the Contractor’s operations and when, in the opinion of the Public Works Director, immediate action will be considered necessary in order to protect the public or property due to the Contractor’s operations under this contract, the Public Works Director will order the Contractor to provide a remedy for the unsafe condition. If the Contractor fails to act on the situation immediately, the Public Works Director may provide suitable protection to said interests by causing such work to be done and material to be furnished as, in the opinion of the Public Works Director, may seem reasonable and necessary.
The cost and expense of said labor and material, together with the cost and expense of such repairs as are deemed necessary, will be borne by the Contractor. All expenses incurred by the City for emergency repairs will be deducted from the progress payments and the final payment due to the Contractor. Such remedial measures by the City will not relieve the Contractor from full responsibility for public safety.
46. HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
For any excavation, which extends more than four feet below existing grade, the Contractor will promptly, and before the conditions are disturbed, notify the Public Works Director, in writing, of 1) any material that the Contractor believes may be hazardous waste, as defined in Health and Safety Code § 25117, which is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law, 2) subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site differing from those indicated, or 3) unknown physical conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract Documents.
After receiving notice from the Contractor, the Public Works Director will promptly investigate any condition identified by the Contractor as being hazardous. The rights and obligations of the City and the Contractor with regard to such conditions (including, -66-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-26
without limitation, the procedures for procuring change orders and filing claims) will be specified by the provisions of these Standard Specifications regarding Changed Conditions.
If a dispute arises between the City and the Contractor whether the conditions materially differ, involve hazardous waste, or cause a change in the Contractor’s cost or time required for performance of the work, the Contractor will not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by the contract, but will proceed with all work to be performed under the contract.
If the Public Works Director determines that material called to the Public Works Director’s attention by the Contractor is hazardous waste, or if the Public Works Director otherwise discovers the existence of hazardous waste, the Contractor will be responsible for removal and disposal of the hazardous waste by qualified personnel and appropriate equipment in the manner required by law as directed by the Public Works Director.
47. LUMP SUM WORK
Items for which quantities are indicated as “Lump Sum,” “L.S.,” or “Job” will be paid for at the price indicated in the Proposal. Such payment will be full compensation for all costs for labor, equipment, materials and plant necessary to furnish, construct and install the lump sum item of work, complete, in place, and for all necessary appurtenant work, including, but not limited to, all necessary cutting, patching, repair and modification of existing facilities, and clean-up of site.
Contractor will furnish three copies of a detailed schedule, which breaks down the lump sum work into its component parts and cost for each part, in a form and sufficiently detailed as to satisfy Public Works Director that it correctly represents a reasonable apportionment of the lump sum. This schedule is subject to approval by Public Works Director as to both the components into which the lump sum item is broken down, and the proportion of cost attributable to each component.
This schedule will be the basis for progress payments for the lump sum work.
48. PARTIAL AND FINAL PAYMENTS
The closure date for the purpose of making partial progress payments will be the last working day of each month. The Contractor will prepare the partial payment invoice with measurement of the work performed through the closure date and submit it to City for approval.
When work is complete, the Contractor will determine the final quantities of the work performed and prepare the final progress payment and submit it to the Public Works Director for approval.
It will take a minimum of 35 calendar days from the date of approving the Contractor’s invoice to make the payment to the Contractor. However, payments will be withheld pending receipt of any outstanding reports required by the contract documents, or legal release of filed Stop Payment Notices against the Contractor. In addition, the final -67-
Standard Specifications
SPECIFICATIONS NO. 22/23-01
SS-27
progress payment will not be released until the Contractor returns the control set of Plans and Specifications showing the as-built conditions.
The full five percent (5%) retention will be deducted from all progress payments. The Contractor will make a payment request for the retained amount, for approval by the City, upon field acceptance of the work by the City Public Works Director. The City Public Works Director upon field acceptance and receipt of the final as-built plans and any other reports or documents required to be provided by the Contractor will process a recommendation to the City for acceptance of the work. Not less than 35 calendar days from the City acceptance of the work, the Contractor’s final payment will be made provided Stop Payment Notices or other claims have not been filed against the Contractor and/or the City by material suppliers, sub- contractors, other governmental agencies, and private property owners. Until these Stop Payment Notices are released, and claims are resolved the stop payment/claim amount will be withheld from the final payment.
The Contractor, however, may receive interest on the retention for the length of construction, or receive the retention itself as long as the retention is substituted with escrow holder surety or equal value.
At the request and expense of the Contractor, surety equivalent to the retention may be deposited with the State Treasurer, or a State or Federally chartered bank, as the escrow agent, who will pay such surety to the Contractor upon satisfactory completion of the contract.
Pursuant to PCC § 22300, the Contractor may substitute securities for retention monies held by the City or request that the City place such monies into an escrow account. The Contractor is notified, pursuant to PCC § 22300, that any such election will be at the Contractor’s own expense and will include costs incurred by the City to accommodate the Contractor’s request.
Progress payment paid by the City as contemplated herein, will be contingent upon the Contractor submitting, in addition to any additional documents, an updated Contract Schedule in the form prescribed by these Contract Documents. Failure of the Contractor to submit an acceptable updated Contract Schedule will result in the City withholding partial payment, without liability to the City, until such an acceptable updated Contract Schedule is submitted. Nothing herein will allow the Contractor to suspend or slow progress of the Work.
A City Council resolution established a Project Payment Account, encumbered money in the current budget, and assigned that money to the Project Payment Account which is the sole source of funds available for payment of the Contract Sum. Contractor understands and agrees that Contractor will be paid only from this special fund and if for any reason this fund is not sufficient to pay Contractor, Contractor will not be entitled to payment. The availability of money in this fund, and City’s ability to draw from this fund, are conditions precedent to City’s obligation to make payments to Contractor.
