On the RFP deadline of April 14, 2022, three firms were interested in the RFP but out of the three only CMY Solutions, LLC has submitted a proposal. 12 Packet Pg. 606
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Contract Award - CMY Solutions
June 21, 2022
City staff reviewed the qualification of submitted proposal. CMY Solutions has extensive experience on substation design, distribution design, and municipal engineering. In addition, CMY has prior experience in electric utility consu lting services with the City and CED staff has worked closely with CMY Solutions in the past years on various electrical project s for public and private development.
CMY Solutions proposed unit rate is $125/hour for any of their engineers on the first ye ar of the contract. This rate will increase to $128.75/hour on the second year and $132/hour on the third year. Goss Engineering rates for engineer ranges from $118/hour to $221/hour. The RFP allows for Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase.
Staff recommends the award of contract to CMY Solutions, LLC i n the amount of $132,000 for FY2022-23. The RFP gives the option for the City to extend the contract for another two years, FY2023-24 and FY2024-25 for $135,385 and $138,770 , respectively. Both increase s are 2.5% escalation from previous year. The contract extension is to provide services continuity and take advantage of the knowledge and familiarity gained by the consultant to the CED electric infrastructure system.

SUBJECT: APPROVE SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE CONTRACT WITH
KRIEGER & STEWART FOR THE WELL 31 PROJECT.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:
1. Approve the First Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Krieger and Stewart Engineering Consultants, increasing the amount of compensation by $50,000 and the contract amount not to exceed $196,050, and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND
Currently, Well No. 30 is the largest well producer in the City and has the capacity of 3,000 GPM. The water pumped from Well No. 30 is approximately 35% of the City’s total water supply. Since it was built in 2013 the pumping plant is always r unning and the pump h as never been pulled for inspection. Both Well Pumping Plant No. 30 and Well 31 are located in the central pressure zone on Fogg Street/Congress Street.
Water wells require regular maintenance to ensure adequate water flow and continued drinking water safety. In order for Well 30 to be inspected, an alternate source of water is necessar y to meet the daily water demand . Because of the need to put Well 30 to rest for maintenance, staff recommended the construction of Well 31 since the well was already drilled and is ready for well development. Construction of the new proposed Well 31 will allow for regular maintenance to Well 30 without supply interruption.

Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Contract Amendment - Krieger & Stewart
June 21, 2022
On April 21, 2020, City Council approved the award of Professional Services Agreement (PSA) to Krieger and Stewart Engineering Consultants, for the design and construction services fo r the Well 31 Pumping Plant Project for amount of $94,550. The scope of services was for the preparation of construction drawings, and construction inspection /support services during the development of the Well Pumping Plant No. 31.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
The original plans and specification f or Well Pumping Plant No. 31 were completed in 2006.
Plans will need to be upgraded and re-designed to meet new codes. Because of changes to the seismic design considerations in the California Building Code, additional de sign services (geotechnical study and structural re-evaluation) were required that caused to exceed the original design engineering portion of the budget.
On February 7, 2022, Notice to Proceed was issued for the construction of Well Pumping Plant No. 31. Based on current status of this project, staff recommends an increase of $50,000 to the contract of Krieger and Stewart Engineering Consultants for the remaining construction support and special inspections.
FISCAL IMPACTS
Sufficient appropriations fo r the contract amendment for the Design and Construction Management of Well No. 31 are available in the FY2021 -22 adopted budget in Water Fund Capital Improvement Project Account #521-8100-8105-3890-0000-000.

SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH LEE & RO, INC. FOR DESIGN
SERVICES FOR THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
UPGRADE & EXPANSION PROJECT.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:
1. Approve the First Amendment to the Professiona l Services Agreement with Lee & Ro, Inc., increasing the amount of compensation by $279,308 for a total contract amount not to exceed $2,578,551 for the professional engineering design services of Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade and Expansion Project; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND
Since 1949, the City of Colton has owned, operated, and maintained the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) at 1201 S. Rancho Avenue. The WWTP provides treatment of domestic, commercial, and industrial wastewater generated by the City of Colton, City of Grand Terrace, and some unincorporated areas of San Bernardino County. The WWTP has undergone numerous expansions and upgrades over the past 70 years as required by growth and/or mandated regulatory requirements from the California Regional Water Quality Control Board.
The Colton WWTP originally consists of three plants. Plant 1 facilities was constructed in 1949, Plant 2 in 1971, and Plant 3 in 2000. Plant 1 facilities were removed from service in 2004, then demolished in 2020 , except for Digester No. 2. The WWTP provides secondary treatment, 14 Packet Pg. 629
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Contract Amendment - Lee & Ro Inc.

nutrient removal, solids removal, and solids digestion utilizing conventional and extended aeration, anaerobic digestion, and solids drying. The ma jority of the treatment processes currently in service today have exceeded 40 years of use, well beyond the anticipated lifespan for the infrastructure. The ability to operate a plant of this age is an on going challenge to WWTP maintenance staff , and minor improvements are made to meet the expanding regulatory requirements.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
On August 17, 2021, the City of Colton entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Lee & Ro, Inc., for the professional engineering design services of the Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade and Expansion Project for an am ount not -to-exceed $2,299,243 . The scope includes replacement of outdated equipment and facilities, upgrade of treatment processes, and increase of WWTP capacity.
During the course of the engin eering design and initial investigatio n, the consultant recommended replacement of the aging Dissolved Air Floatation ( DAF) unit and additional scope necessary in the plant expansion . Below is a list of items re quired for the additional work.
After severa l meetings and discussion, staff recommends to award the additional work to the contract of Lee & Ro, Inc. The additional cost to Lee & Ro, Inc., will exceed the original contract amount by 12.14%.
Scope of Work Cost
DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) $110,986.00
Hot water Boiler System $69,780.00
Heat Exchanger and Sludge Recirculation Pumps $29,597.00 Existing Lift Station Rehabilitation and scum pumps $34,870.00 Beam Crane and Emergency Generator at New Lift Station $34,075.00 Total= $279,308.00
FISCAL IMPACTS
Sufficient appropriations for the $279,308 contract amendment are available in the FY2021 -22 adopted budget in Wastewater Fund WWTP Capital Improvement Account Number 522-8200- 8204-3890-0000-000.

SERVICES CONTRACT WITH IDC CONSULTING ENGINEERS,
INC. FOR $16,271 FOR BRIDGE #54C-0100 - MT. VERNON AVE.
BRIDGE OVER SANTA ANA RIVER SEISMIC RETROFIT PROJECT.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:
1. Approve Ch ange Order No. 2 for Professional Services contract with IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc. for $16,271 for Bridge #54C -0100 - Mt. Vernon Ave. Bridge over Santa Ana River Seismic Retrofit Project to include focus environmental survey for bat colonies and southwestern willow fly-catcher; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the amended agreement.
BACKGROUND
The statewide Seismic Safety Retrofit Program was established by emergency legislation (SB 36X) enacted during a legislative session after the Octob er 1989 Loma Prieta Earthquake to provide funding assistance to local agencies for fixing structural seismic design deficiencies of public bridges on local streets and roads in California. Mt. Vernon Ave. Bridge over Santa Ana River is one of the bridges t hat received funding from the statewide Seismic Safety Retrofit Program.
The project suffered delay due City’s request to mo dify the scope of the project to add the widening of the bridge to the scope. Caltrans staff informed the City that the project wid ening 15 Packet Pg. 631
Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Contract Amendment - IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc.

will not be included on the project and the scope shall be seismic retrofit only. In the future, the City can still apply for funding for the widening of this bridge.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
On June 1, 2021, the City awarded a contract for the preparation of a seismic strategy report and 35% plan to IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc. in the amount of $85,502.20. Subsequently, an amendment (Change Order No. 1) was awarded on February 15, 2022 for $91,266.73 for channel hydraulics analysis, aerial survey and prep aration of environmental documents. The cost proposal of IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc. to complete the preliminary engineering, environmental documents and permits, and final design is $684,658. The City did not award the other components of the RFP since Caltrans instructed City staff to complete the environmental document before additional funding for Preliminary Engineering (PE) phase can be released. The estimated completion of the 35% design and the environmental document is April 2023.
As required f or the completion of the environmental document, a habitat assessment survey for biological species was performed. The survey indicated th e presence of bat colonies and southwestern willow flycatcher (a federally endangered species) on the project site is highly possible. As a result, a protocol survey for both species is necessary and below is the breakdown for the additional works (Change Order No. 2):
a. Bat and willow flycatcher protocol survey = $14,271 b. Project management and quality control/assurance = $ 2,000 Total = $16,271
Upon approval of the Change Order No. 2, the new contract amount total for IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc. is $193,039.93.
FISCAL IMPACTS
Sufficient appropriations for Change order No. 2 to the IDC Consulting Engineers, Inc. contract are available in the FY2021-22 adopted budget in the following accounts:
Account Number Funding Source Change Order Funding
450-0637-6987-3890-0000-000 HBP $13,016.80

Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:
1. Dispense with competitive bidding in accordance with Colton Municipal Code Section
3.08.140(C); and

Staff Report to the Mayor and City Council
Contract Award - Fire Apparatus Solutions
June 21, 2022
Fire Apparatus Solutions has provided us with a revised contract for review. This new contract reflects an hourly rate of $92.50 per hour.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Section 3.08.140(C) allows the City to dispense with competitive bidding when the City "determines that a competitive bid procedure has been conducted by another public agency and the price to the City is equal to or better than the price to that public agency" . In such instances, the procedures of that agency shall satisfy all City requirements for the bid and award of tho se purchases.
On September 28 , 2021 , the City of Rialto approved the award of fire mechanic services to Kalmikov Enterprises, Inc. DBA Fire Apparatus Solutions. The contract with Colton is equal in hourly price to Rialto with the exception of the preve ntative maintenance price; Colton’s hourly price is $75 per hour which is better than Rialto’s price of $85 per hour.
If approved, the term of this contract is three-years with two (2), optional one-year extensions.
FISCAL IMPACTS
The annual contract am ount will stipulate, not to exceed $1 50,000; however, the hourly rate charged by Fire Apparatus Solutions has gone up from $8 8.00 per hour to $ 92.50 per hour.
Sufficient appropriations for the first contract year are availa ble in the FY20 22-23 adopted budget in General Fund Fire Department Vehicle Operating Expense Account N umber 100 - 6090-6091-2210-0000-000.

For City Council Meeting [September 28, 2021]
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
APPROVAL: Marcus Fuller, City Manager
FROM: Sean Grayson, Fire Chief
Request City Council to 1) Approve a 3-Year Services Agreement with Kalmikov Enterprises, Inc., a California corporation, dba Fire Apparatus Solutions, in the Amount of $300,000 Annually for Repairs and Preventative Maintenance of Fire Apparatus.
(ACTION)
BACKGROUND
Fire Department apparatus is unique in function and design and requires specialized maintenance and repair procedures. Furthermore, because of the City’sneed to provide emergency services, it is imperative that this equipment is in top operating condition at all times. While the Fire Department utilizes the City of Rialto Fleet Maintenance Division for maintenance and repair of smaller vehicles (cars, trucks, SUVs, and ambulances) the larger fire apparatus equipment require specialized maintenance services. The Fire Department has historically contracted with an outside vendor to provide these services.
The Rialto Fire Department has used Fire Apparatus Solutions (FAS), a City of Rialto business (located at 1762 S. Sycamore Ave.), to provide repairs and preventative maintenance of fire apparatus (engines, ladder truck, rescue, and brush engine) since 2013 based upon competitive bid processes in 2013 and 2017. The current contract with FAS was approved with a maximum term of 5 years with an expiration of June 30, 2022

Attachment: Rialto Agenda Report FAS 9-28-2021 (3582 : Contract Award - Fire Apparatus Solutions) File #: 21-0428, Version: 1
In anticipation of the expiration of the contract with FAS, the Fire Department determined to solicit a new competitive bid for these services.
ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
The City Purchasing Division solicited requests for proposals for fire apparatus maintenance services (RFP 21-053), which closed on June 25, 2021. A copy of the RFP is included as Attachment 1.
Solicitation was electronically by planetbids, with the RFP emailed to 190 City registered vendors, and also electronically to 250 other vendors using planetbids in the southern California area, in accordance with the City’spurchasing regulations. On June 25, 2021, the City received one bid from FAS. A copy of the proposal submitted by FAS is included as Attachment 1.
The Fire Department has used FAS for repairs and preventative maintenance of fire apparatus since 2013. The Fire Department has received good overall service for both routine and emergency repairs and maintenance. FAS has been responsive to changes in the fleet and maintained currency in the maintenance and repair training for the current Fire Department fleet.
FAS is based in the City of Rialto and has recently acquired an additional facility in Rialto. Their location in Rialto provides for reduced travel for scheduled maintenance and enhanced timeliness in repairs. Based on these factors, staff recommends the contract be awarded to FAS. The contract term is a one-year contract with four (4) optional one-year extensions available at the City’sdiscretion by amendment approved by the City Manager. Under the proposed services agreement, maintenance services are provided at the following hourly labor rates:
· Preventive Maintenance: $85 / hour
· Repairs: $92.50 / hour
· Emergency Repairs: $108 / hour
· Roadside Service: $92.50 / hour
· Holiday Labor: $108 / hour
The maximum amount authorized annually for these services is $300,000. The services agreement amount matches the funds budgeted by the Fire Department in the fiscal year 2021-2022 budget for apparatus maintenance. A copy of the RFP is included as Attachment 3. A copy of the disclosure form for FAS is included as Attachment 4.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The action is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15378(b) (5) of the CEQA Guidelines because the requested action is a governmental administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY
The City of Rialto General Plan establishes various guiding principles, goals, and objectives through which the City looks to improve the community and protect the quality of life for our residents. The proposed item supports the General Plan in the following areas:
5-3.1: Provide for fire personnel, equipment and fire stations to have adequate and appropriate resources to meet the needs and serve all areas of Rialto.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 21, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL SMITH, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: ARTHUR MORGAN, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MGR
SUBJECT: APPROVE CONTRACTUAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH THE COLTON CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022 -
2023.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:
BACKGROUND
The City, through its former redevelopment agency, has had an annual Agreement with the Chamber which has included c ompensation in the amount of $25,000, and a scope of services and performance measures, since fiscal year 2006/2007. Services performed under the Agreement have been paid in quarterly installments following receipt of monthly progress reports submitted on a quarterly basis.
ISSUES/ANALYSIS
Economic Development considers the Chamber to be valuable to the City for business retention, expansion and civic engagement. Since there are only two Staff members in Economic Development, Staff appreciates the assis tance of the Chamber to meet with businesses and communicate needs and questions back to Staff. The Chamber’s attendance and assistance for certain events inside and outside the City shows that Colton is willing to be involved regionally.
As a result of these collaborations, Colton’s businesses and Community groups benefit. Staff feels that presence at these events multiply the efforts of Staff.
