CITY OF CARSON 701 East Carson Street
Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, October 6, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 28.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Michael Whittiker, Community Services Director CS Community Services Subject: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 4 TO CONTRACT NO. 23-270 WITH T&G GLOBAL, LLC, DBA ST. NICK’S CHRISTMAS LIGHTING & DÉCOR, TO EXTEND THE AGREEMENT AND AUTHORIZE ADDITIONAL HOLIDAY DECORATION ENHANCEMENTS FOR THE 2026 HOLIDAY SEASON (CITY COUNCIL) I. SUMMARY
On October 3, 2023, the City Council approved an agreement with T&G Global, LLC, doing business as St. Nick’s Christmas Lighting and Décor (“St. Nick’s”), to provide holiday decorating services at City Hall, the Carson Event Center, and designated City streets and public areas. The agreement established an initial three-year term at an annual base cost of $157,894, for a total base contract amount of $473,682 (Exhibit No. 1).

Since approval of the original agreement, the City Council has approved three amendments authorizing additional holiday decorations and enhancements beyond the original scope of services. Amendment No. 1, approved November 21, 2023, authorized $48,525 in enhancements for the 2023 holiday season (Exhibit No. 2).

Amendment No. 2, approved September 17, 2024, authorized $49,056 in enhancements for the 2024 holiday season (Exhibit No. 3). Amendment No. 3, approved September 30, 2025, authorized $63,035 in enhancements for the 2025 holiday season (Exhibit No. 4). Staff now recommends approval of the proposed Amendment No. 4, which would exercise the first of the City’s two optional one-year extensions and authorize additional decorations and enhancements for the 2026 holiday season (Exhibits Nos. 5 and 6). The amendment would extend the agreement through the 2026 holiday season, with one additional one-year extension remaining available to the City.

If approved, Amendment No. 4 would authorize the annual base contract amount of $157,894 for the additional year, along with $49,364 for the proposed 2026 enhancements. This would increase the total authorized contract amount from $634,298 to $841,556 over the four-year contract period.

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. APPROVE the proposed Amendment No. 4 to Contract No. 23-270 with T&G Global, LLC, doing business as St. Nick’s Christmas Lighting & Décor, extending the Agreement for one additional year and authorizing additional holiday decoration enhancements for the 2026 holiday season, for a revised total contract amount not to exceed $841,556; and,

2. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 4, following approval as to form by the City Attorney.

III. ALTERNATIVES

1. TAKE any other action the City Council deems appropriate and consistent with applicable law.

IV. BACKGROUND
On June 29, 2023, the City of Carson issued Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 23-022 to competitively solicit a qualified contractor to provide holiday decorating services at City Hall, the Carson Event Center, and designated City streets and public areas. The requested services included furnishing, installing, maintaining, and removing holiday decorations. Following the competitive selection process, T&G Global, LLC, doing business as St. Nick’s Christmas Lighting and Décor (“St. Nick’s”), was selected based on its qualifications, experience, project understanding, staffing and service capacity, past performance, and familiarity with the City’s holiday decorating program.

On October 3, 2023, the City Council approved a three-year agreement with St. Nick’s, with two optional one-year extensions that may be exercised by the City (Exhibit No. 1). The agreement established an annual base cost of $157,894, for an initial three-year contract amount of $473,682. The base services provide the City’s recurring holiday decorating program, while additional enhancements may be considered separately based on the City’s needs and available funding.

Since approval of the original agreement, the City Council has authorized additional holiday decorations and enhancements each year. On November 21, 2023, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1, authorizing $48,525 in additional decorations for the 2023 holiday season and increasing the total authorized contract amount to $522,207 (Exhibit No. 2). On September 17, 2024, the City Council approved Amendment No. 2, authorizing an additional $49,056 for the 2024 holiday season and increasing the total contract amount to $571,263 (Exhibit No. 3). On September 30, 2025, the City Council approved Amendment No. 3, authorizing an additional $63,035 for the 2025 holiday season and increasing the total contract amount to $634,298 (Exhibit No. 4).

For the 2026 holiday season, staff is recommending approval of Amendment No. 4 (Exhibit No. 6), which would accomplish two purposes. First, the amendment would exercise the first of the City’s two optional one-year extensions, allowing St. Nick’s to continue providing holiday decorating services through the 2026 season.

Exercising this option would extend the agreement from its original three-year term to a fourth year, with one additional one-year extension remaining available to the City. Second, Amendment No. 4 would authorize $49,364 in additional holiday decorations and enhancements identified in St. Nick’s proposal (Exhibit No. 5). The proposed 2026 enhancements would expand and refresh holiday decorations throughout the Civic Center area.

At the Carson Event Center, the enhancements include a 14-foot illuminated “Happy Holidays” sign with an eight-foot illuminated red bow, a decorated 20-foot live Christmas tree with warm white lighting in the Atrium, and a 10-foot walk-through illuminated star with a gift-box display. The proposal also includes decorations for newly constructed areas of the Carson Event Center.

At the City Hall Bridge, the proposed enhancements include six 10-foot red-and-white illuminated arches, a 14-foot illuminated “Happy Holidays” sign, additional warm white lighting in the median, and lighting on pine and smaller trees along Civic Center Drive.

At City Hall, the enhancements include a decorated 14-foot live Christmas tree with warm white lighting in the lobby, nine-foot garlands along both sides of the staircase, warm white lighting in the planter boxes near the entrance, and 36-inch red bows with gold trim on trees in front of City Hall.

Along Carson Street and Avalon Boulevard, the proposed enhancements include illuminated tree wraps on the west and south sides of City Hall, 40 eight-foot illuminated pole-mounted displays, and warm white lighting in landscaping along Avalon Boulevard between City Hall and Desford Street.

Together, these improvements are intended to provide a coordinated and consistent holiday display throughout the Civic Center and surrounding public areas. The additional cost of the proposed 2026 enhancements is $49,364 (Exhibit No. 5). This amount is separate from the annual base contract amount of $157,894, which is already included in the City’s adopted Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget. Accordingly, approval of Amendment No. 4 would authorize continuation of the City’s existing holiday decorating program for the 2026 season, exercise the first optional one-year contract extension, and authorize the proposed additional holiday enhancements.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the annual base contract amount of $157,894 is included in the City’s adopted Fiscal Year 2026-27 Operating Budget for the Community Services Department, Carson Event Center, in Account No. 101-90-960-930- 6004. If the City Council approves the proposed 2026 holiday decoration enhancements, the additional $49,364 will also be funded from Account No. 101-90-960-930-6004. Therefore, the total cost for holiday decorating services for the 2026 season will be $207,258, consisting of the $157,894 annual base contract amount and $49,364 in additional enhancements. No additional appropriation is required as a result of this action.

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES

THIS AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES
(“Amendment”) by and between the CITY OF CARSON, a California municipal corporation (“City”) and T&G GLOBAL, LLC dba St. Nick’s Christmas Lighting & Décor, a California limited liability company (“Consultant”), is effective as of the aT gies of November, 2023.

RECITALS
A. Pursuant to a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) issued by the City, City and Consultant entered into that certain Agreement for Contract Services dated October 24, 2023 (“Agreement”) whereby Consultant agreed to provide the City with winter holiday decoration services for the 2023-24, 2024-25, and 2025-26 holiday seasons in exchange for compensation in the amount of $157,894 per year, or a not-to-exceed Contract Sum of $473,682.

B. City and Consultant now desire to amend the Agreement to add further decoration services for the 2023 winter holiday season, and in certain cases to replace or provide clarifications to decoration services already included in the Agreement. The total cost of the additional decoration services is $48,525, and the parties desire to increase the not-to-exceed Contract Sum by said amount, for an amended Contract Sum of $522,207. c. The additional decorations are within the scope of the RFP, which provided the contract awarded pursuant thereto would allow the City to rent holiday decorations and street banner products and services on an “as needed” basis, and which requested proposers to submit their total line of available products and services, to include a separate holiday decoration enhancements addendum (“enhancements” was defined for this purpose in the RFP as items that may be added to the RFP at the City Council’s sole discretion based on the available options) with pricing for consideration in addition to the basic package. Consultant did so, but due to timing issues, City approved the Agreement prior to determining the desired enhancements. Inclusion of the additional decorations in the Agreement when it was originally approved would not have impacted the selection of Consultant for the award, as the RFP was issued pursuant to CMC 2611(b) and was not required to be awarded to the “lowest responsive and responsible bidder.” Per the RFP, the proposers were ranked based on the evaluation criteria set forth in the RFP, which did not include cost, and St. Nick’s received the highest score. Staff also found that St. Nick’s rates were fair, reasonable and competitive with the other proposers.

TO AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES

THIS AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES
(“Amendment No. 4”) by and between the CITY OF CARSON, a California municipal corporation (“City”) and T&G GLOBAL, LLC dba ST. NICK’S CHRISTMAS LIGHTING & DÉCOR, a California limited liability company (“Consultant”), is effective as of the ____ day of __________, 2026.

RECITALS
A. Pursuant to a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) issued by the City, City and Consultant entered into that certain Agreement for Contract Services dated October 24, 2023 (“Agreement”), whereby Consultant agreed to provide the City with winter holiday decoration services for the 2023-24, 2024-25, and 2025-26 holiday seasons in exchange for compensation in the amount of $157,894 per year, or a not-to-exceed Contract Sum of $473,682.

B. Effective November 27, 2023, City and Consultant entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement to add further decoration services for the 2023 winter holiday season, and in certain cases to replace (for the 2023 winter holiday season) or provide clarifications to decoration services already included in the Agreement. The total cost of the additional decoration services was $48,525, and Amendment No. 1 increased the not-to-exceed Contract Sum by said amount, for an amended Contract Sum of $522,207.

C. Effective September 18, 2024, City and Consultant entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement to add further decoration services for the 2024 winter holiday season, and in certain cases to replace (for the 2024 winter holiday season) or provide clarifications to decoration services already included in the Agreement. The total cost of the additional decoration services was $49,056, and Amendment No. 2 increased the not-to-exceed Contract Sum by said amount, for an amended Contract Sum of $571,263.

D. Effective October 1, 2025, City and Consultant entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement to add further decoration services for the 2025 winter holiday season, and in certain casesto replace (for the 2025 winter holiday season) or provide clarificationsto decoration services already included in the Agreement. The total cost of the additional decoration services was $63,035, and Amendment No. 3 increased the not-to-exceed Contract Sum by said amount, for an amended Contract Sum of $634,298.

E. City and Consultant, by this Amendment No. 4, desire to amend the Agreement to (i) exercise the first option to extend the Term of the Agreement by one year pursuant to Section

3.4 of the Agreement, and (ii) add further decoration services for the 2026 winter holiday season, and in certain cases to replace (for the 2026 winter holiday season) or provide clarifications to decoration services already included in the Agreement. The total cost of the additional decoration services is $49,364 and the base compensation is $157,894, and the Parties desire, by this Amendment No. 4, to increase the not-to-exceed Contract Sum by said amount, for an amended Contract Sum of $841,556.

F. The additional decorations are within the scope of the RFP, which provided the contract awarded pursuant thereto would allow the City to rent holiday decorations and street banner products and services on an “as needed” basis, and which requested proposers to submit their total line of available products and services, to include a separate holiday decoration enhancements addendum (“enhancements” was defined for this purpose in the RFP as items that may be added to the RFP at the City Council’s sole discretion based on the available options) with pricing for consideration in addition to the basic package. Consultant submitted its enhancements addendum for the 2023 and 2024 winter holiday season as part of its proposal in response to the RFP and has now submitted its enhancements addendum for the 2026 winter holiday season, which is similar to its approved enhancements addendum for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 winter holiday seasons, but with additional enhancements. Inclusion of the additional decorations in the Agreement when it was originally approved would not have been feasible and would not have impacted the selection of Consultant for the award, as the RFP was issued pursuant to CMC 2611(b) and was not required to be awarded to the “lowest responsive and responsible bidder.” Per the RFP, the proposers were ranked based on the evaluation criteria set forth in the RFP, which did not include cost, and St. Nick’s received the highest score. Staff and the City Council also found that St. Nick’s rates were and continue to be fair, reasonable and competitive with the other proposers.

CITY OF CARSON 701 East Carson Street
Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, October 6, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 29.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Michael Whittiker, Community Services Director CS Community Services Subject: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO THE CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH CHOURA VENUE SERVICES TO EXTEND THE AGREEMENT THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2028, AND

AUTHORIZE ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR CONTINUED CATERING SERVICES AT THE CARSON EVENT

CENTER (CITY COUNCIL)
I. SUMMARY
On December 6, 2022, the City Council approved Contract No. 23-022 (Agreement) with Choura Venue Services (Choura) to provide on-call catering services at the Carson Event Center (Center). The Agreement established an initial three-year term from January 1, 2023, through December 31, 2025 (Exhibit No. 1). On May 2, 2023, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1, which revised the payment process for catering services provided for Citysponsored and City co-sponsored events. Under Amendment No. 1, Choura bills the City separately for these services rather than deducting the costs from the monthly revenue payments Choura makes to the City.

Amendment No. 1 established a total contract amount not to exceed $473,000 for the initial three-year term (Exhibit No. 2). On August 5, 2025, the City Council approved Amendment No. 2, exercising the first of two optional oneyear extensions and extending the Agreement through December 31, 2026. Amendment No. 2 also provided additional funding to address higher-than-anticipated demand for catering services at City-sponsored and City cosponsored events. Specifically, the amendment authorized an additional $110,000 for the remainder of 2025 and $220,000 for the 2026 extension period. These increases brought the total contract amount to an amount not to exceed $803,000 through December 31, 2026 (Exhibit No. 3).

The proposed Amendment No. 3 (Exhibit No. 4) would exercise the second optional one-year extension for calendar year 2027 and provide an additional one-year extension through December 31, 2028, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Agreement. Extending the Agreement through 2028 would provide continuity of catering services during a period when the City anticipates increased event activity associated with its 60th anniversary and the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Amendment No. 3 would also authorize additional funding for the remainder of the Agreement. An additional $40,000 is proposed for the remainder of 2026 because demand for catering services at City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events has been higher than anticipated, resulting in existing contract funding being used more quickly than projected. The amendment would authorize an additional $250,000 for calendar year 2027 and $400,000 for calendar year 2028. The higher amount proposed for 2028 reflects the anticipated increase in catering needs associated with the City's 60th anniversary and the Olympic and Paralympic Games taking place in Carson.

In total, proposed Amendment No. 3 would add $690,000 to the Agreement, increasing the total contract amount from $803,000 to an amount not to exceed $1,493,000 and extending the Agreement through December 31, 2028.

Approval would allow the City to maintain uninterrupted catering services for City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events through the proposed extension period.

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. DETERMINE that waiving the re-solicitation requirement is in the City’s best interest and WAIVE the resolicitation requirement pursuant to Carson Municipal Code Section 2611(m)(2);and,

2. APPROVE the proposed Amendment No. 3 to Contract No. 23-022 with Choura Venue Services, a California corporation, extending the Agreement through December 31, 2028, and increasing the total contract amount by $690,000, from $803,000 to an amount not to exceed $1,493,000 (Exhibit No. 4); and,

3. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 3, following approval as to form by the City Attorney.

III. ALTERNATIVES
TAKE any other action the City Council deems appropriate and consistent with applicable law.

IV. BACKGROUND
On December 6, 2022, following a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process, the City Council approved Contract No. 23-022 with Choura Venue Services (Choura) to provide on-call catering services at the Carson Event Center. The original agreement was for a three-year term beginning January 1, 2023, and ending December 31, 2025 (Exhibit No. 1). Under the agreement, Choura provides catering services for private events held at the Carson Event Center and pays the City an agreed-upon percentage of the revenue generated from those services.

Choura also provides catering services for certain City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events held at the facility.

On May 2, 2023, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to establish a separate payment process for catering provided at City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events. Rather than deducting these costs from the revenue Choura pays to the City for private-event catering, Choura bills the City directly for authorized City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events. Funding for these events is provided through the City's annual budget process.

Amendment No. 1 authorized expenditures of up to $172,000 per fiscal year, prorated when applicable, and established a total contract amount not to exceed $473,000 for the original three-year term (Exhibit No. 2).

On August 5, 2025, the City Council approved Amendment No. 2, exercising the first of two optional one-year extensions and extending the agreement through December 31, 2026. Amendment No. 2 also increased the available funding for City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events in response to higher-than-anticipated demand for catering services. The amendment authorized an additional $110,000 for the remainder of calendar year 2025 and $220,000 for calendar year 2026, for a total increase of $330,000. This increased the total contract amount from $473,000 to an amount not to exceed $803,000 through December 31, 2026 (Exhibit No. 3).

The City is now approaching the end of the current contract term and must determine how to provide catering services at the Carson Event Center beyond December 31, 2026. The proposed Amendment No. 3 would exercise the second one-year extension authorized under the existing agreement, covering calendar year 2027, and would add one additional year through December 31, 2028. The additional year would allow the City to maintain continuity of catering services during 2028, when increased activity is anticipated in connection with the City's 60th anniversary and the Olympic and Paralympic Games taking place in Carson.

For calendar year 2027, staff recommends authorizing up to $250,000 for catering services associated with Citysponsored and City co-sponsored events. For calendar year 2028, staff recommends authorizing up to $400,000.

The higher amount proposed for 2028 reflects the anticipated increase in City events and activities associated with the City's 60th anniversary and the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Based on current usage and anticipated event activity, staff believes these amounts will provide sufficient capacity to meet the City's catering needs during the proposed extension period. Amendment No. 3 would also provide an additional $40,000 for the remainder of calendar year 2026. Demand for catering at City-sponsored and City co-sponsored events during 2026 has exceeded earlier projections, resulting in the existing contract authorization being used more quickly than anticipated. Without additional funding, the currently authorized amount is expected to be exhausted before the agreement expires on December 31, 2026. The proposed $40,000 increase is intended to provide sufficient contract capacity to maintain uninterrupted catering services through the remainder of the year. In total, Amendment No. 3 would authorize an additional $690,000, consisting of $40,000 for the remainder of 2026, $250,000 for 2027, and $400,000 for 2028. Approval would increase the total contract amount from $803,000 to an amount not to exceed $1,493,000 and extend the agreement through December 31, 2028. Approval would therefore allow the City to continue using Choura for authorized catering services at City-sponsored and City cosponsored events without interruption through 2028.

Because the proposed amendment exceeds $75,000, the City Council must also consider the City's contracting requirements. Carson Municipal Code (CMC) Section 2611(m)(2) generally requires the City to conduct a new competitive solicitation when an amendment to a City Council-approved contract exceeds $75,000. However, the same section allows the City Council to waive that requirement when it determines that doing so is in the City's best interest. In this case, staff recommends that the City Council make the required determination and waive the resolicitation requirement. Choura was originally selected through a competitive process and has provided catering services at the Carson Event Center since 2023. Continuing with the existing provider would maintain continuity of operations and avoid a transition in catering services as the City approaches a period of increased activity at the Event Center, particularly during 2028. Choura is also familiar with the facility, its operations, and the City's event requirements, reducing the operational disruption and administrative effort associated with transitioning to a new provider during the proposed extension period.

Consequently, staff recommends that the City Council determine that waiving the re-solicitation requirement under CMC Section 2611(m)(2) is in the City's best interest and approve Amendment No. 3 with Choura Venue Services. The amendment would provide additional contract capacity for the remainder of 2026, maintain catering services through 2027, and provide continuity through 2028 as the City prepares for its 60th anniversary and its role as a host city for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for these services is included in the City’s adopted Fiscal Year 2026-27 budget under Account No. 101-90- 960-930-6004. Funding required for subsequent years of the proposed contract extension will be incorporated into the City’s future annual budgets, as appropriate and subject to City Council approval.

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES

THIS AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES
(“Amendment”) by and between the CITY OF CARSON, a California municipal corporation (“City”) and CHOURA VENUE SERVICES, a California corporation (“Caterer”) is effective as of the 1st day of April, 2023.

RECITALS
A. City and Caterer entered into that certain Agreement for Contract Services effective January 1, 2023 (“Agreement”), whereby Caterer agreed to provide on-call catering services for functions held at the City’s Juanita Millender-McDonald Community Center, and for Caterer to receive compensation through the sales generated from patrons from such functions net of a user fee payable monthly to the City for non-City functions. The Agreement also authorized City to procure Caterer’s services for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities at a 20% discount rate, with the costs incurred by City for such services to be deducted from the monthly user fees due to City as detailed in Section III of Exhibit “C” (Schedule of Compensation).

B. Subsequent to effectiveness of the Agreement, City staff determined that this method of compensation for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities creates accounting, purchasing and personnel-related complications for the City and does not conform to best practices from a City financial tracking, accounting or recordkeeping perspective.

Accordingly, City staff determined that Caterer’s service charges for City sponsored or cosponsored events or activities should be billed directly to the City by Caterer, separate and independent from the monthly user fee payments due from Caterer to City, rather than being included as deductions or offsets from or against the monthly user fee payments. Caterer is agreeable to this modification. Therefore, City and Consultant now desire to amend the Agreement to effectuate the same, including amending the Contract Sum to reflect the independent nature of the payments to be made by City for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities (which are anticipated not to exceed $172,000 annually).

C. The parties, by entering into this Amendment, do not intend to change the rates of compensation or the anticipated total/final compensation that will be received by Caterer or City under the Agreement, as the changes effectuated by this Amendment are intended to relate only to separating the process of invoicing and payment of the monthly user fees due to the City from the process of invoicing and payment of the costs incurred by the City for City sponsored or cosponsored events or activities under the Agreement.

TERMS

1. Contract Changes. The Agreement is amended as provided herein (added text shown in bold italics, deleted text shown in strikethrough).

AMENDMENT NO. 3

TO AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES
THIS AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO THE AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT
SERVICES (“Amendment No. 3”) by and between the CITY OF CARSON, a California municipal corporation (“City”) and CHOURA VENUE SERVICES, a California corporation (“Caterer”) is effective as of the __ day of _______, 2026.

B. On April 1, 2023, the City and Caterer entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement to amend the method of compensation so Caterer’s service charges for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities are billed directly to the City by Caterer, separate and independent from the monthly user fee payments due from Caterer to City, rather than being included as deductions or offsets from or against the monthly user fee payments. City and Caterer agreed to amend the Agreement by Amendment No. 1 to effectuate the same, including amending the Contract Sum to reflect the independent nature of the payments to be made by City for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities (which were anticipated not to exceed $172,000 annually). Amendment No. 1 was not intended to, and did not, change the rates of compensation or the anticipated total/final compensation that would be received by Caterer or City under the Agreement, as the changes effectuated by Amendment No. 1 were intended to relate only to separating the process of invoicing and payment of the monthly user fees due to the City from the process of invoicing and payment of the costs incurred by the City for City sponsored or cosponsored events or activities under the Agreement.

C. On September 2, 2025, the City and Caterer entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement to exercise the City’s first of two options to extend the Term of the Agreement by oneyear, through December 31, 2026, and to increase the Contract Sum by $330,000 in order to fund services through December 31, 2026, thereby increasing the total Contract Sum to $803,000 over the 4-year term of the Agreement.

D. Due to higher-than-anticipated demand for Caterer’s services for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities under the Agreement during 2026 to date, the Contract Sum has been expended faster than anticipated, and unless increased, will likely be exhausted prior to the scheduled expiration of the four-year term of the Agreement (December 31, 2026). Accordingly, the City and Caterer now desire to amend the Agreement to increase the Contract Sum by $40,000 01007.0001 2187413.4
to authorize additional funding sufficient to cover the anticipated demand for such services through December 31, 2026.

E. Furthermore, the City and Caterer now desire to exercise the second of the City’s two options to extend the Term of the Agreement by one year pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Agreement and to further extend the Term for an additional one year beyond said option period (at the same rate of compensation as set forth in Exhibit “C” for the existing term), thereby extending the Agreement term through December 31, 2028. City and Caterer also desire to increase the Contract Sum by $250,000 for the extension period from January 1, 2027 to December 31, 2027, and due to anticipated increased demand attributable to the City’s 60th anniversary and the presence of the Olympic and Paralympic Games in the City in 2028, by $400,000 for the extension period from January 1, 2028 to December 31, 2028, to provide sufficient funding for anticipated demand for such services over the two-year extension period (January 1, 2027 – December 31, 2028).

F. The current Contract Sum is $803,000. The Contract Sum increases described in Recitals D and E above, collectively, equal $690,000, resulting in an amended Contract Sum of $1,493,000.

G. Section 2611(m)(2) of the City’s Municipal Code provides “[a]ny amendment to a contract that exceeds $75,000 requires re-solicitation unless (i) the City Council waives the resolicitation requirement following determination that such waiver is in the City’s best interest or (ii) the amendment concerns a change order in which event bidding will not be required irrespective of the amount.”
H. Due to the Consultant’s long-standing relationship with the City and their extensive knowledge of the City’s operations, which ensures continued efficiency and cost-effectiveness, the City Council has determined that re-solicitation for this amendment is not required and is in the City’s best interest, pursuant to Section 2611(m)(2) of the Municipal Code.

TERMS

1. Incorporation of Recitals. The Recitals set forth above are incorporated into and are a part of this Amendment No. 3

2. Terms and Definitions. All words, terms and phrases used or referenced in this Amendment No. 3, not expressly defined in this Amendment No. 3, shall have the same meaning ascribed to them in the Agreement.

3. Contract Changes. The Agreement is amended as provided herein (added text shown in bold italics, deleted text shown in strikethrough).

A. Section 2.1 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

For the services rendered pursuant to this Agreement, Consultant shall be compensated in accordance with the “Schedule of Compensation” attached hereto as Exhibit “C” and incorporated herein by this reference, but the maximum amount payable by City to Consultant for City sponsored or co-sponsored events or activities (which shall be independent of and 01007.0001 2187413.4
shall not reflect deduction or setoff for monthly user fees payable by Consultant to City under this Agreement, as detailed in Section III of Exhibit “C”) shall not exceed One Million Four Hundred Ninety-Three Thousand Dollars ($1,493,000) Eight Hundred Three Thousand Dollars ($803,000) (“Contract Sum”).” B. Section 3.4 is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“3.4 Term. Unless earlier terminated in accordance with Article 7 of this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until completion of the services but not exceeding six (6) four (4) years from the date hereof, except as otherwise provided in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit ‘D’). The City has the option, at its sole discretion, to extend the term of the Agreement by up to one (1) additional year, in a one (1) year increment, at the same rate of compensation as set forth in Exhibit “C” for the initial four-year term.” C. Section VI of Exhibit “C” (Schedule of Compensation) is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
“VI. The total compensation from City for the Services shall not exceed $1,493,000 $803,000, as provided in Section 2.1 of this Agreement.”

4. Continuing Effect of Agreement. Except as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and this Amendment No. 3, all provisions of the Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect. From and after the date of this Amendment No. 3, whenever the term “Agreement” appears in the Agreement, it shall mean the Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2 and this Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement.

Caterer represents and warrants to City that, as of the date of this Amendment No. 3, City is not in default of any material term of the Agreement and that there have been no events that, with the passing of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a material default under the Agreement.

Report to Honorable Mayor and City Council
Tuesday, October 6, 2026, 5:00 PM
CONSENT 30.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
From: Dr. Arlington Rodgers, Director of Public Works PW Engineering Subject: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH Z&K CONSULTANTS, INC. FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR PROJECT NO. 1636 – MILLS PARK SITE RECONSTRUCTION AND PROJECT NO. 1795 – MILLS PARK RECREATION CENTER BUILDING

RENOVATION (CITY COUNCIL)
I. SUMMARY
Project No. 1636 – Mills Park Site Reconstruction and Project No. 1795 – Mills Park Recreation Center Building Renovation are included in the City’s Fiscal Year 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program. Together, the projects will significantly improve Mills Park through new and upgraded recreational amenities, including a playground, sports and fitness courts, recreation center expansion and renovation, a new splash pad, and related site and infrastructure improvements. Given the size and complexity of the planned improvements, professional construction management and inspection services are needed to oversee construction, verify that the work is completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications, and help keep the projects on schedule and within budget.

On June 29, 2026, the City issued Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 26-001Q to solicit qualified firms to provide construction management and inspection services for both Mills Park projects. The RFQ was advertised through PlanetBids from June 29 through July 29, 2026. The City received 12 Statements of Qualifications, which were reviewed and ranked by an Engineering staff selection committee using the evaluation criteria established in the RFQ (Exhibit No. 1). Following the competitive evaluation process, Z&K Consultants, Inc. was identified as the highest-ranked and most qualified firm.

Following the selection process, staff negotiated the scope of services and compensation with Z&K Consultants, Inc. Staff therefore recommends that the City Council approve a five-year Contract Services Agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $500,720 to provide construction management and inspection services for Project Nos. 1636 and 1795 (Exhibit No. 2).

II. RECOMMENDATION
TAKE the following actions:

1. APPROVE a five-year Contract Services Agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $500,720 to provide construction management and inspection services for Project No. 1636 – Mills Park Site Reconstruction Project and Project No. 1795 – Mills Park Recreation Center Building Renovation; and,

2. AUTHORIZE the Mayor to execute the Contract Services Agreement, following approval as to form by the City Attorney.

III. ALTERNATIVES

1. DO NOT APPROVE the proposed Contract Services Agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc.

2. TAKE any other action the City Council deems appropriate and consistent with applicable law.

IV. BACKGROUND
Mills Park is an approximately 4.45-acre community park located at the southeast corner of Central Avenue and East Dimondale Drive in the City of Carson. The City is preparing to undertake two significant capital improvement projects at Mills Park that will substantially renovate both the park grounds and the existing recreation center.

Project No. 1636 – Mills Park Site Reconstruction Project is included in the City's Fiscal Year 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), which identifies and funds major improvements to City facilities and infrastructure. The project will reconstruct and modernize significant portions of the park. Planned improvements include a new playground with shade structures; a full-size basketball court; a fitness court with a shade structure; reconstructed picnic areas; new concrete walkways; expanded drainage and irrigation systems; new turf; and new site furnishings. The picnic areas will also incorporate permeable paving, which allows stormwater to filter into the ground rather than immediately flowing into the storm drain system, helping the project comply with applicable stormwater and Low Impact Development requirements.

Project No. 1795 – Mills Park Recreation Center Building Renovation will renovate and expand the existing recreation center and improve the surrounding recreational amenities. The project includes an approximately 1,400-square-foot building expansion to provide additional office space, new exterior public restrooms, a dedicated equipment room for the proposed splash pad, and additional storage. Improvements to the existing building will include exterior façade enhancements, new flooring, kitchen upgrades, restroom improvements, and expanded office space. The project also includes new concrete walkways and replacement of the existing wading pool with a new splash pad featuring integrated bleacher seating.

Together, these projects represent a substantial investment in Mills Park and involve multiple types of construction occurring within the same park, including building renovation and expansion, recreational facilities, landscaping, irrigation, drainage, concrete work, and specialized park improvements. Given the size and complexity of the work, the City requires professional construction management and inspection services to provide day-to-day oversight and help ensure that the projects are constructed properly.

Construction management and inspection services serve as an extension of City staff during construction. Among other responsibilities, the consultant will monitor construction progress; inspect the contractor's work; coordinate among the City, contractors, utility companies, and other agencies; verify compliance with the City's approved plans and specifications; monitor project schedules and budgets; review contractor payment requests; evaluate construction-related questions and proposed changes; coordinate required material testing and special inspections; maintain project records; and assist with project completion and final acceptance. These services are intended to identify and resolve construction issues promptly, protect the City's investment, and help keep the projects on schedule and within their approved budgets.

To obtain these professional services, the City issued Request for Qualifications (RFQ) No. 26-001Q on June 29, 2026. A Request for Qualifications is a competitive selection process in which consulting firms are evaluated primarily on their experience, qualifications, personnel, and ability to perform the required work. The RFQ was advertised through PlanetBids, the City's electronic procurement system, from June 29 through July 29, 2026. The City received 12 Statements of Qualifications from consulting firms in response to the RFQ. A selection committee consisting of City Engineering staff reviewed and ranked all 12 submissions using the evaluation criteria established in the RFQ. Based on that competitive evaluation, Z&K Consultants, Inc. (Z&K) was identified as the highest-ranked and most qualified firm. Following the selection process, City staff negotiated the detailed scope of services and compensation with Z&K.

Under the proposed agreement, Z&K will provide comprehensive construction management and inspection services for both Mills Park projects. The firm's responsibilities will include resident engineering and overall construction management; construction inspection; coordination with City staff, contractors, utility companies, and regulatory agencies; review and processing of contractor submittals, requests for information, and proposed change orders; monitoring of construction schedules and project budgets; review of contractor payment requests; documentation and reporting of construction progress; quality assurance and quality control oversight; and assistance with project closeout and final acceptance. These services will supplement existing City staff resources and provide dedicated technical expertise throughout construction. This additional oversight is particularly important because the two projects include numerous improvements being constructed within the same park and require careful coordination to ensure that the work conforms to the City's approved plans, specifications, contractual requirements, and applicable construction standards.

Z&K provides construction management, construction inspection, plan review, program management, construction administration, pre-construction inspection, staff augmentation, and other professional engineering consulting services. The firm has experience providing similar services to local public agencies and is certified as a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE), Women's Business Enterprise (WBE), and Small Business Enterprise (SBE).

Based on the competitive qualifications-based selection process, Z&K's experience, and the negotiated scope of services, staff recommends that the City Council approve a five-year Contract Services Agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $500,720 to provide professional construction management and inspection services for Project No. 1636, Mills Park Site Reconstruction, and Project No. 1795, Mills Park Recreation Center Building Renovation. Approval of the agreement will provide the City with dedicated professional oversight throughout construction and will help ensure that these significant improvements to Mills Park are properly coordinated, documented, inspected, and completed in accordance with the City's plans, specifications, budget, and quality standards.

V. FISCAL IMPACT
This action is part of the City’s coordinated use of Development Impact Fee (DIF) Fund 289 to support eligible Capital Improvement Program projects, including Project No. 1636 – Mills Park Site Reconstruction and Project No. 1795 – Mills Park Recreation Center Building Renovation. Both projects are included in the City’s Fiscal Year 2026-27 Capital Improvement Program and will provide significant improvements to Mills Park’s recreational amenities, public facilities, and supporting site infrastructure. At its September 15, 2026, meeting, the City Council considered Resolution No. 26-099 (Exhibit No. 3), which appropriates $5,699,000 from the available DIF Fund balance to address identified funding needs for various eligible capital improvement and community development projects, including the Mills Park projects. The proposed agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. represents a specific use of this funding to provide the professional construction management and inspection services necessary to support the delivery of both Mills Park projects. If approved, the proposed $500,720 Contract Services Agreement with Z&K Consultants, Inc. will be funded entirely from DIF Fund Account No. 289-99-999-904- 8008, using funding appropriated through Resolution No. 26-099. No additional appropriation is required, and approval of the agreement will have no impact on the City’s General Fund.

[to be initialed] ______________
Consultant Initials
City, its respective elected and appointed officers, directors, officials, employees, agents and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds as respects: liability arising out of activities Consultant performs; products and completed operations of Consultant; premises owned, occupied or used by Consultant; or any automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by Consultant. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City, and their respective elected and appointed officers, officials, employees or volunteers. Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At the option of City, either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects City or its respective elected or appointed officers, officials, employees and volunteers or the Consultant shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, defense expenses and claims. The Consultant agrees that the requirement to provide insurance shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which the Consultant may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property resulting from the Consultant’s activities or the activities of any person or persons for which the Consultant is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit the Consultant’s indemnification liabilities as provided in Section 5.3.

In the event the Consultant subcontracts any portion of the work in compliance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement, the contract between the Consultant and such subcontractor shall require the subcontractor to maintain the same policies of insurance that the Consultant is required to maintain pursuant to Section 5.1, and such certificates and endorsements shall be provided to City.

5.3 Indemnification.

To the full extent permitted by law, Consultant agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City, its officers, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, 01007.0006 2180822.1 -10-
arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities whether actual or threatened (herein “claims or liabilities”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or entity arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of the work, operations or activities provided herein of Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, or invitees, or any individual or entity for which Consultant is legally liable (“indemnitors”), or arising from Consultant’s or indemnitors’ reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Consultant’s or indemnitors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, and in connection therewith:
(a) Consultant will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any of said claims or liabilities and will pay all costs and expenses, including legal costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith;
(b) Consultant will promptly pay any judgment rendered against the City, its officers, agents or employees for any such claims or liabilities arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform such work, operations or activities of Consultant hereunder; and Consultant agrees to save and hold the City, its officers, agents, and employees harmless therefrom;
(c) In the event the City, its officers, agents or employees is made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against Consultant for such damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform the work, operation or activities of Consultant hereunder, Consultant agrees to pay to the City, its officers, agents or employees, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the City, its officers, agents or employees in such action or proceeding, including but not limited to, legal costs and attorneys’ fees.

Consultant shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Consultant shall be fully responsible to indemnify City hereunder therefore, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof. This indemnification includes claims or liabilities arising from any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Consultant in the performance of professional services hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professional. The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Consultant and shall survive termination of this Agreement.

5.4 Sufficiency of Insurer.

Insurance required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated “A-” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Risk Manager of the City (“Risk 01007.0006 2180822.1 -11-
Manager”) due to unique circumstances. If this Agreement continues for more than 3 years duration, or in the event the Risk Manager determines that the work or services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to the City, the Consultant agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the Risk Manager.

ARTICLE 6. RECORDS, REPORTS, AND RELEASE OF INFORMATION

6.1 Records.

Consultant shall periodically prepare and submit to the Contract Officer such reports concerning the performance of the services required by this Agreement as the Contract Officer shall require. Consultant hereby acknowledges that the City is greatly concerned about the cost of work and services to be performed pursuant to this Agreement. For this reason, Consultant agrees that if Consultant becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or will materially increase or decrease the cost of the work or services contemplated herein or, if Consultant is providing design services, the cost of the project being designed, Consultant shall promptly notify the Contract Officer of said fact, circumstance, technique or event and the estimated increased or decreased cost related thereto and, if Consultant is providing design services, the estimated increased or decreased cost estimate for the project being designed.

6.3 Ownership of Documents.

All drawings, specifications, maps, designs, photographs, studies, surveys, data, notes, computer files, reports, records, documents and other materials (the “documents and materials”) prepared by Consultant, its employees, subcontractors and agents in the performance of this Agreement shall be the property of City and shall be delivered to City upon request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement, and Consultant shall have no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of its full rights of 01007.0006 2180822.1 -12-
ownership use, reuse, or assignment of the documents and materials hereunder. Any use, reuse or assignment of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of uncompleted documents without specific written authorization by the Consultant will be at the City’s sole risk and without liability to Consultant, and Consultant’s guarantee and warranties shall not extend to such use, reuse or assignment. Consultant may retain copies of such documents for its own use. Consultant shall have the right to use the concepts embodied therein.

City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Consultant or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding. Consultant agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Consultant. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.

ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION

7.1 California Law.

This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions 01007.0006 2180822.1 -13-
concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.

7.2 Disputes; Default.

In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default.

This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

7.4 Waiver.

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

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

Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement. 01007.0006 2180822.1 -14-

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

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

7.6 Legal Action.

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

7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Consultant, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Consultant, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, Consultant may terminate this Agreement if and only if all of the following criteria are met: (i) City is in default under the terms of this Agreement; (ii) Consultant has given City thirty (30) days’ written notice (or longer, if circumstances warrant) of the default and the reasons for the default; and (iii) City has failed to cure the default within said cure period. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of City’s termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the City need not provide the Consultant with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.8 Termination for Default of Consultant.

If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such 01007.0006 2180822.1 -15-
damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City therefor.

7.9 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

If this Agreement is subject to the payment of federal prevailing wages under the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. § 3141 et seq.), then Consultant shall pay the higher of either the state for federal prevailing wage applicable to each laborer.
