Section 15. Conflicts of Interest.
15.1 Consultant covenants that neither Consultant, nor any officer, principal or employee of its firm, has or will acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, that would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or that would in any way hinder Consultant’s performance of services under this Agreement. Consultant’s attention is directed to the conflict of interest rules applicable to governmental decision-making contained in the Political Reform Act (California Government Code Section 87100 and following) and its implementing regulations (California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 18700 and following), and California Government Code section 1090.
15.2 Consultant covenants that neither Consultant, nor any officer, principal or employee of its CC/CSD Agreement No. 2026-67
Form Approved April 2021 7
firm will make, participate in the making, or in any way attempt to use the position of Consultant to influence any decision of the City in which Consultant knows or has reason to know that Consultant, or any officer, principal or employee of Consultant has any of the financial interests listed in Government Code section 87103.
15.3 If Consultant discovers that it has employed a person with a direct or indirect interest that would conflict with its performance of this Agreement, Consultant must promptly disclose the relationship to City and take such action as City may direct to remedy the conflict.
15.4 City understands and acknowledges that Consultant is, as of the Effective Date, independently involved in the performance of non-related services for other governmental agencies and private parties. Consultant represents that, except as otherwise disclosed to City, it is unaware of any stated position of City relative to these projects. Any future position of City on these projects will not be considered a conflict of interest for purposes of this section.
Section 16. Indemnification.
16.1 Consultant agrees that it will, to the fullest extent permitted by law, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City from all Services Claims and Operations Claims (each defined below) related to the performance by Consultant of this Agreement as provided in this section.
Consultant acknowledges that City would not enter into this Agreement in the absence of Consultant’s commitment to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City as set forth in this section.
16.2 For the purposes of this section, “City” includes City’s officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers, and “Consultant” includes Consultant’s officers, officials, employees, agents and subconsultants and any other persons for whom Consultant is legally responsible.
16.3 With respect to the performance of professional services under this Agreement where the law establishes a professional standard of care for such services, Consultant agrees to indemnify, and hold harmless City from and against all liabilities, damages, losses, and costs, including but not limited to reimbursement of reasonable attorney's fees and all other costs of defense, to the extent caused by the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant (collectively, “Services Claims”).
16.4 With respect to the acts and operations of Consultant under this Agreement other than the performance of professional services, Consultant agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorney's fees and all other costs of defense, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant, and excepting only those claims, damages, liabilities, losses, and costs caused by City’s sole negligence or willful misconduct (collectively, “Operations Claims”).
16.5 Consultant must notify City within five days of receipt of notice of any Operations Claims or Services Claims made or legal action initiated that arises out of or pertains to Consultant’s performance of services under this Agreement.
16.6 Consultant’s duty to defend Operations Claims is a separate and distinct obligation from Consultant’s duty to indemnify City for any Operations Claims. With respect to Operations Claims, Consultant is obligated to defend City in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel reasonably approved by City, immediately upon tender CC/CSD Agreement No. 2026-67
Form Approved April 2021 8
to Consultant of an Operations Claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Consultant are responsible for the Operations Claim does not relieve Consultant from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals.
16.7 Consultant agrees that settlement of any Operations or Services Claim against City requires the consent of City. City agrees that its consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that Consultant is financially able (based on demonstrated assets including insurance) to fulfill its obligation to indemnify City for the costs of any such settlement as required under this Agreement.
16.8 The insurance required to be maintained by Consultant under this Agreement is intended to ensure Consultant’s obligations under this section, but the limits of such insurance do not limit the liability of Consultant.
16.9 Consultant agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this section from each subconsultant or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Consultant in the performance of this Agreement. If Consultant fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required, Consultant will be fully responsible for all obligations under this section. City’s failure to monitor compliance with this requirement imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement.
16.10 The parties acknowledge and agree that design professionals are required to defend and indemnify the City only to the extent permitted by Civil Code section 2782.8, which allows for claims only to the extent that they arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the design professional, and also places limitations on the costs of defense that may be charged to a design professional. The term "design professional,” is defined in Section 2782.8, and includes licensed architects, licensed landscape architects, registered professional engineers, professional land surveyors and the business entities that offer such services in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Business and Professions Code. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Section 16 are to be interpreted and applied to the fullest extent permitted by Civil Code section 2782.8.
16.11 The provisions of this section will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with the applicable provisions of Exhibit C (Insurance).
Section 17. Insurance.
Consultant agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement the insurance coverages listed in Exhibit C (Insurance), which is made a part of this Agreement.
All insurance policies are subject to approval by City as to form and content. These requirements are subject to amendment or waiver if so approved in writing by the City Manager or City Attorney.
Section 18. Assignment.
The expertise and experience of Consultant are material considerations for this Agreement. City has an interest in the qualifications of and capability of the persons and entities that will fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Consultant under this Agreement. In recognition of that interest, Consultant may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any portion of this Agreement or the performance of any of Consultant’s duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of City, which may be withheld in the City’s sole discretion. Any attempted CC/CSD Agreement No. 2026-67
Form Approved April 2021 9
assignment will be null and void, and will constitute a material breach of this Agreement entitling City to any and all remedies at law or in equity, including summary termination of this Agreement.
Section 19. Default; Limitations on Liability.
19.1 In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, City will have no obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any services performed after City provides written notice to Consultant of such default.
19.2 Consultant agrees that no City official, officer, employee or agent will be personally liable to Consultant in the event of any default or breach of City, or for any amount which may become due to Consultant, or for any obligations directly or indirectly incurred under this Agreement.
19.3 City’s liability under this Agreement is limited to payment of Consultant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and excludes any liability whatsoever for consequential or indirect damages even if such damages are foreseeable.
Section 20. Termination of Agreement.
20.1 City may terminate this Agreement, with or without cause, at any time by written notice of termination to Consultant. In the event such notice is given, Consultant must cease immediately all work and services in progress.
20.2 Consultant may terminate this Agreement at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice of termination to City.
20.3 Upon termination of this Agreement by either Consultant or City, all property belonging to City that is in Consultant’s possession must be returned to City. Consultant must promptly deliver to City a final invoice for all outstanding services performed and expenses incurred by Consultant as of the date of termination. Compensation for work in progress not based on an hourly rate will be prorated based on the percentage of work completed as of the date of termination.
20.4 Consultant acknowledges City’s rights to terminate this Agreement as provided in this section, and hereby waives any and all claims for damages that might otherwise arise from City’s termination of this Agreement.

The City revised the anticipated labor hours but FE’s billing rates remain the same. Based on those revisions, the estimated three-year not-to-exceed fee is $1,225,447.00. The fee is summarized below and detailed in Appendix A; FE’s annual billing rates are included in Appendix B.
LOCAL EXPERIENCE AND RESPONSIVE SUPPORT
FE has supported the City and District since 2010, beginning with construction management and inspection services for the Springville Drive/US 101 Interchange Project. Since then, FE has delivered construction management, inspection, and engineering support on more than 37 City infrastructure projects involving water, wastewater, stormwater, roadway, and utility improvements. Our Ventura office provides local availability, rapid mobilization, and access to additional construction managers, inspectors, office engineers, labor compliance staff, and technical support as project conditions change.
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND DELIVERY APPROACH
FE understands the City is establishing a team to support multiple capital projects. The work may include design-phase constructability review, preconstruction setup, inspection-only assignments, full construction management, construction materials testing, construction management software administration, and post-construction closeout. Each assignment will begin with confirmation of the specific scope, staffing, schedule, deliverables, communication procedures, and project budget.
FE will act as an extension of City staff and tailor its level of effort to each project. Our approach emphasizes early identification of design and field risks, clear communication, accurate quantity and payment records, timely documentation of potential changes, and organized project files that support closeout and any subsequent audit, dispute, or claim review.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
The following scope combines the City’s RFP requirements with FE’s standard construction management and inspection procedures. Services will be performed only as requested and authorized by the City as defined for each project assignment.
1. Constructability Review and Preconstruction Document Review The primary objective of FE's constructability review is to minimize change orders and schedule delays by confirming that the construction documents are coordinated, substantially complete, biddable, and buildable. The review will also incorporate value engineering and consideration of competitive bid pricing, construction duration, and practical field execution.
Constructability review services will be performed when requested by the City, with the review scope, deliverables, schedule, and authorized level of effort established for the applicable project assignment. • Kickoff and coordination. Meet with the City and Design Engineer before the review to confirm document maturity, prior comments, design history, project constraints, desired phasing, permits, review priorities, available hours, and deliverables. • Site familiarization. Visit the site as needed to understand access, staging, existing facilities, utilities, drainage, traffic, adjacent properties, operating constraints, and features that may not be apparent from the documents.

CITY OF CAMARILLO / CAMARILLO SANITARY DISTRICT
• Document review. Review plans, specifications, estimates, bid schedules, permits, agreements, reports, and schedules using Caltrans constructability checklists as a baseline supplemented by FE’s project-specific review criteria. • General and cost review. Check overall clarity and consistency; plan/specification connectivity; bid-item coverage; measurement and payment language; quantity completeness and representative spot checks; details and cross sections; and removal of redundant or conflicting requirements.
• Permits, phasing, and site logistics. Review environmental mitigation, SWPPP and water pollution control requirements, permit conditions, construction windows, staging and phasing, site logistics, temporary easements, stockpile and haul needs, grading and earthwork limits, and temporary drainage.
• Utilities and continuity of operations. Review known utilities, potholing and protection requirements, clearances, relocation status, sequence of utility and civil work, shutdowns and tie-ins, bypass or temporary service needs, access to operating facilities, and coordination with public and private utility owners. • Schedule and construction interfaces. Review schedule requirements, working days, long-lead items, project phasing, public impacts, traffic control and detour requirements, work-zone access, emergency access, testing, startup, commissioning, and closeout responsibilities.
• Review tools and comment log. Add comments in Bluebeam for plans; Microsoft Word track changes or Bluebeam for specifications; Microsoft Excel or Bluebeam for estimates; and Microsoft Project or Bluebeam for schedules, as appropriate. FE will also prepare a categorized comment spreadsheet with plan-sheet or specification references. • Draft review meeting. Provide draft comments to the City and Design Engineer, then meet to clarify the design decisions and project history that shaped the documents. FE’s collaborative approach is to ask whether a condition has been considered and work with the design team toward a clearer, more biddable, and efficient final package. • Final deliverables. Finalize a constructability review technical memorandum and comment list for Design Engineer response and City tracking. When requested and authorized, FE will independently evaluate working days and may prepare a concept construction schedule to support the recommendation.
For each requested constructability review, FE will coordinate with the City to confirm document maturity, review objectives, deliverables, schedule, and available budget. Multi-stage reviews, detailed independent quantity takeoffs, discipline-specific design calculations, and independent working-day or schedule evaluations will be performed only when specifically requested and authorized.
2. Preconstruction Services
• Review the contract documents, applicable permits, available design records, and Resident Engineer pending file; identify critical items, unusual conditions, and unresolved pre-bid issues. • Establish the City-customized document administration and construction management software system, including permissions, workflows, logs, filing conventions, and communication procedures. • Prepare and conduct the preconstruction conference and other startup coordination meetings; prepare agendas, action items, minutes, proposed submittal list, and initial project logs. • Photograph and video-document preconstruction conditions, including adjacent facilities and work areas, and organize the records by date and location.
3. Construction Management Services, (as requested by the City) • Coordinate with the City Project Manager and FE inspector to administer the construction contract and coordinate contractor interfaces without assuming responsibility for the Contractor’s means, methods, techniques, sequences, procedures, supervision, or safety program.
• Manage project communication, weekly progress meetings, action items, contractor correspondence, RFIs, submittals, material substitutions, bulletins, logs, and collaboration with the Design Engineer, utility owners, testing firms, adjacent property owners, and other agencies and stakeholders.
• Review baseline and updated schedules, three-week look-ahead schedules, working days, progress, phasing, long-lead items, and potential critical-path delays; notify the City of risks and actions requiring City direction. • Review and process progress pay estimates, quantity source documents, weekly statements of working days, potential change orders, independent cost evaluations, force-account records, and supporting documentation. • Document and evaluate changed conditions; draft and negotiate change orders as directed; research and respond to notices of potential claims; and support claim avoidance, dispute resolution, and complete contemporaneous recordkeeping.

EXHIBIT C
INSURANCE
1. Required Insurance. Before commencing any services, Consultant must procure and maintain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement the following types of insurance with at least the minimum coverage listed and subject to the applicable additional requirements set forth below:
Type of Insurance Limits
Commercial General Liability $1,000,000 / $2,000,000 (occurrence/aggregate) Business Automobile Liability $1,000,000 combined single Workers’ Compensation Statutory Requirements
Professional Liability $1,000,000 / $2,000,000 (claim/aggregate)
2. Insurance Rating. All insurance required to be maintained by Consultant must be issued by companies licensed by or admitted to conduct insurance business in the State of California by the California Department of Insurance and must have a rating of A- or better and Financial Size Category Class VII or better by the latest edition of A.M. Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by City’s legal counsel.
3. Commercial General Liability Insurance. The commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of Insurance Services Office (ISO) form CG 00 01, and must be provided on a per occurrence basis for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. The insurance must be on an “occurrence” not a “claims made” basis. Defense costs must be paid in addition to limits. There must be no cross-liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another. The insurance must include a waiver of subrogation applicable to the insurance or self-insurance, a primary and non-contributory endorsement, and an additional insured endorsement, all in favor of the City of Camarillo, its officers, employees and agents, and volunteers; blanket endorsements are acceptable. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.
4. Business Automobile Insurance. The business automobile insurance coverage must be at least as broad as ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01, covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Consultant arising out of or in connection with the services to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount stated above per combined single limit for each accident. Such insurance must include a waiver of subrogation applicable to the insurance or self-insurance, and a primary and non-contributory endorsement, and an additional insured endorsement, all in favor of the City of Camarillo, its officers, employees and agents, and volunteers; blanket endorsements are acceptable.
5. Workers’ Compensation. If Consultant has any employees, Consultant must maintain workers’ compensation insurance (statutory limits) and employer’s liability insurance (with limits of at least $1,000,000). Such insurance must include a waiver of subrogation CC/CSD Agreement No. 2026-67
Form Approved April 2021 C-2
endorsement in favor of the City of Camarillo, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers; a blanket endorsement is acceptable.
6. Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions) Insurance. The professional liability insurance must cover the services to be performed under this Agreement. The coverage must be provided on a “claims made” basis. Consultant must maintain continuous coverage through a period not less than three years after the completion of the services required under this Agreement.
7. Umbrella or Excess Liability Insurance. If an excess or umbrella liability policy is used to meet minimum limit requirements, the insurance must provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages. Any such coverage provided under an umbrella or excess liability policy must include a “drop-down provision” requiring the policy to respond in the event that any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectable in whole or in part for any reason. Coverage must be provided on a “pay-onbehalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There may be no crossliability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another.
The policy must “follow form” to the underlying primary policy. Coverage must be applicable to all insureds under the primary policies. The insurance must contain or be endorsed to contain a waiver of subrogation applicable to the insurance or self-insurance, and a primary and non-contributory endorsement for the benefit of City. The scope of coverage provided is subject to approval of City following receipt of the required proof of insurance.
8. Consultant’s Limitations and Endorsements. The Consultant’s insurance policies must not include any endorsements or provisions that limit coverage for the following risks:
explosion, collapse, or underground hazards (XCU); products and completed operations; pollution liability; and contractual liability. These coverages must be specifically included without any exclusions, modifications, or restrictions that would limit the scope of protection otherwise afforded by the basic policies. Any endorsement or exclusion that reduces or eliminates coverage for the above-listed risks is unacceptable.
9. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retention. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions applicable to the insurance policies required under this Agreement must be declared to and approved by City. In no event may any required insurance policy have a deductible, selfinsured retention or other similar policy provision in excess of $50,000 without prior written approval by City in its sole discretion. At the option of City, either the insurer will reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to the City’s additional insureds or Consultant will procure a bond guaranteeing payment of any losses, damages, expenses, costs or settlements up to the amount of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.
10. Certificates of Insurance and Endorsements; Notice of Termination or Changes to Policies. Prior to commencing any services under this Agreement, Consultant must file with the City certificates of insurance and endorsements evidencing the existence of all insurance required by this Agreement, along with such other evidence of insurance or certified copies of policies as may reasonably be required by City. These certificates of insurance and endorsements must be in a form approved by the City’s legal counsel.
Consultant must maintain current certificates and endorsements on file with City during the term of this Agreement reflecting the existence of all required insurance. Each of the certificates must expressly provide that no material change in the policy, or termination or cancellation of the required coverage, will be effective except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to City by certified mail, return receipt requested (except for nonpayment for which a CC/CSD Agreement No. 2026-67
Form Approved April 2021 C-3
10-day notice is required). The delivery to City of any certificates of insurance or endorsements that do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement will not waive the City’s right to require compliance. In the event that Consultant’s policies are materially changed, Consultant must provide the City with at least 30 days’ prior written notice of the applicable changes. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time.
11. Failure to Maintain Required Insurance. If Consultant, for any reason, fails to have in place at all times during the term of this Agreement all of the required insurance coverage, the City may, but is not obligated to, obtain such coverage at Consultant’s expense and deduct the cost from the sums due Consultant. Alternatively, City may terminate the Agreement.
12. Effect of Coverage. The existence of the required insurance coverage under this Agreement will not be deemed to satisfy or limit Consultant’s indemnity obligations under this Agreement. Consultant acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this Agreement constitute the minimum coverage and policy limits required. Should any coverage carried by the Consultant or any subconsultant of any tier have limits of liability that exceed the limits or have broader coverage than required in this Agreement, those higher limits and that broader coverage are deemed to apply for the benefit of any person or organization included as an additional insured and those limits and broader coverage will become the required minimum limits and insurance coverage in all sections of this Agreement. Any insurance proceeds available to City in excess of the limits and coverages required by this Agreement, and which is applicable to a given loss, must be made available to City to compensate it for such losses.
