SUBJECT: A REQUEST TO SCHEDULE A JOINT PUBLIC HEARING – HOUSING AUTHORITY 2025 PHA ANNUAL PLAN AND 2025-
2029 ADMINISTRATIVE PLAN

SUMMARY
Staff is requesting a Joint Public hearing between the City Council and the Urban Community Development Commission for Tuesday, April 1, 2025 at 5:45 p.m.

DISCUSSION
The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) requires all Public Housing Agency (PHA) to develop and implement an Annual Plan. The Annual Plan provides details about the PHA’s immediate operations, programs and services and notifies HUD of changes that were not included in the Five-Year Plan.

Likewise, HUD requires PHAs to update their Five-Year Administrative Plan every five years. Staff is currently updating the Five-Year Administrative Plan also.

The information that the PHA must submit to HUD under both, are the discretionary policies of the various plan components or elements (i.e., programs, operations, and strategies for meeting local housing needs and goals) and not the statutory or regulatory requirements that govern these components.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff respectfully requests a joint public hearing be scheduled for Tuesday, April 1, 2025, at 5:45 p.m. in the Council Chambers located at 205 South Willowbrook Avenue, Compton, California 90220.

NINETY-THREE DOLLARS ($74,593) FOR EADIE AND PAYNE’S

INVOICES FOR PROVIDING NEEDED SERVICES BEYOND THE TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT.

SUMMARY
Staff is requesting that the City Council consider adopting a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to issue a Purchase Order for Seventy-Four Thousand Five-Hundred Ninety-Three Dollars ($74,593) for invoices received from Eadie and Payne LLC. for providing needed services for the City beyond the terms of the agreement.

BACKGROUND

(Please see Attachment A for the Professional Services Agreement notating the services to be provided.)

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
During the FY2021-2022 audit process, additional time and services beyond the agreement were needed. Eadie and Payne LLC. extended their services to ensure the City’s needs were met.

For the FY2021-2022 audit, out of scope services including the following areas were obtained on an urgent basis:

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON AMENDING THE PUBLIC WORKS ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT’S
2024-2025 FISCAL YEAR BUDGET AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY

MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH NV5, INC. TO PROVIDE ENGINEERING DESIGN

SERVICES FOR THE CENTER AVENUE GREEN STREET AND STORM
DRAIN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, CIP# 24-04 AND ESTABLISH A
PURCHASE ORDER IN THE AMOUNT OF $945,688.

SUMMARY
Adoption of this Resolution will amend the Public Works Engineering Department’s 2024- 2025 fiscal year budget and authorize the City Manager to enter into professional services agreement with NV5, Inc. to provide design engineering services pursuant to the Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project, CIP# 24-04 and establish a purchase order in the amount of $945,688.

BACKGROUND
Section 19.56, subdivision (e) (19) of the Budget Act of 2021 appropriated $10,000,000 from the State General Fund to Caltrans, to be allocated to the City of Compton for the Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project.

On June 24, 2022, the City of Compton entered into a Funds Transfer Agreement with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the amount of $10,000,000 for the development of the Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project.

The Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project (Project) is an infrastructure project proposed by the City of Compton. The primary objective of the Project is to provide flood protection, improve water quality, and enhance recreational opportunities in the City that currently lack adequate drainage and green space.

The project will extend and expand the existing storm drain system with the construction of catch basins, lateral line, and gravity mains along Center Avenue. Additionally, several structural Low Impact Development (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be installed, yielding multi-benefits that will improve water quality, water resilience, and watershed protection in the adjacent Compton Creek and downstream into the Los Angeles River.

6. Staff Report – Center Avenue Green Street and Storm Drain Improvement Project, CIP# 24-04, Professional Services Agreement – NV5, Inc.

February 4, 2025

Page 2 ends

The Project targets and enhances a highly urbanized residential area within the City that experience extensive street flooding during storm events. The proposed Project will entail the extension and expansion of the existing storm drain system infrastructure (i.e catch basins, lateral lines, and gravity mains) in the project area, in addition to restoration of the existing road surface.

The proposed Project will also include the installation of structural Low Impact Development (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs) along Center Avenue; and from Center Avenue along Alondra Boulevad to Compton Creek, which will be specifically designed to capture and/or treat stormwater flow that would otherwise contribute to the current flooding problem. Examples of potential LID BMPs include drywells, parkway bioswales, permeable pavement, and tree wells. Geotechnical investigations will be conducted in the project area to ensure that the existing soil characteristics are suitable for infiltration. The completion of the proposed Project will yield multi-benefits including flood mitigation, improve water quality, increased water supply, water conservation, watershed protection, and the creation of a new natural resource within the City.

The proposed project area is along South Center Avenue from West Greenleaf Boulevard to Alondra Boulevard, South Center Avenue from Alondra Boulevard to South Wilmington Avenue, and along Alondra Boulevard from South Center Avenue to Compton Creek. This encompasses a potential capture area of approximately 150 acres consisting largely of single-family residences.

Installation of LID BMPs along Alondra Boulevard will connect the Center Avenue Green Street project to the City’s Alondra Gateway Park project, which in part of the Compton Creek Implementation Plan’s multi-objective effort to transform the existing Compton Creek right-of-way into a multi-benefit publicly accessible (32,000 sf) green space.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
An essential component of this project is to obtain the services of a qualified and experienced engineering firm to provide design engineering services. On November 13, 2024, staff solicited proposals from qualified design engineering firms to prepare the construction plans, specifications and estimates pursuant to the Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project.

Staff Report – Center Avenue Green Street and Storm Drain Improvement Project, CIP# 24-04, Professional Services Agreement – NV5, Inc.

February 4, 2025

Page 3 ends

On December 4, 2024, the City received two proposals comprising of NV5, Inc and JMD. A panel of Public Works staff reviewed the submitted proposals. Each consultant was rated based upon their qualifications, experience, a demonstrable understanding of the scope of services, approach, resources and the proposed schedule for project implementation.

The two respondent to the RFP are listed below:

Rank Firm Location Amount
1 NV5 Irvine, CA $945,688
2 JMD City of Industry $779,398
The scope of work required for the preparation of plans, specifications, and estimates for the Center Avenue storm drain project include the following, but not limited to:
 Conduct inventory and assessment of existing storm drain infrastructure, including pipes, culverts, catch basins, and outfalls
 Conduct a geotechnical investigation in the project area to ensure that existing soil characteristics are suitable for infiltration and provide structural/integrity assessment of existing storm drain facilities
 Evaluate the condition, capacity, and performance of the storm drain system and identify flood-prone areas and drainage issues
 Perform underground utility research and request current underground utility asbuilt with original plans and develop an updated substructure plan  Perform technical specifications, construction drawings, probable cost estimate, and any other documents deemed necessary as determined by the consultant, and approved by the City’s Engineer
 Conduct comprehensive inventory of existing drainage facilities including review of as-built from the LA County Public Works Flood Control District and Caltrans  Design Low Impact Developments (LID) Best Management Practices (BMPs) to improve water quality, water resilience and watershed protection in the adjacent Compton Creek and mitigate the effects of erosion and the inherent potential for sedimentation and other pollutants entering the storm water system Staff Report – Center Avenue Green Street and Storm Drain Improvement Project, CIP# 24-04, Professional Services Agreement – NV5, Inc.

 Perform hydraulic calculations to determine deficiencies in the existing storm drain system including acceptable street capacities based on the LA County requirements
 Identify street segments, and develop complete and comprehensive construction documents
 Prepare Bid Sheet explanations to align with the new construction cost estimate provided
The evaluation process was based upon on several factors including the completeness of the proposal, consultant’s demonstrated understanding of the scope of services, quality of similar work previously performed by the firm, personnel assigned, resources required to perform the required services, and the proposed schedule of work. Given the unique nature of the project, fees for the project were not considered until after the selection of the most qualified firms.

The panel evaluation process resulted in the selection of NV5, Inc. to prepare the construction plans, specifications and estimates for improvement project. NV5, Inc. selection was based on several factors. NV5’s demonstrated its multifaceted technical knowledge that combines engineering design for flood control, drainage, green infrastructure, and citywide experience necessary to deliver the project in the most cost efficient and cost-effective manner. The design portion is estimated to take approximately 467 days.

Addtionally, NV5’s extensive experience and strong existing relationship with the City infrastructure improvement needs, in light of staff shortage has enabled the firm to provide sufficient cost and time efficient services on previous City projects which included: the Emergency Sewer Line Replacement, the Pearl Avenue Sewer Replacement, and the Annual Residential Streets Rehabilitation, Phase 1 and Phase 2.

Therefore, in order to amend the Public Works Engineering Department’s 2024-2025 fiscal year budget and authorize the City Manager to enter into professional services agreement with NV5, Inc. to provide design engineering services pursuant to the Center Avenue Green Street Improvement Project, CIP# 24-04 and establish a purchase order in the amount of $945,686, City Council authorization is necessary.

Relevant Experience
NV5 has provided engineering design and other services for projects similar in scope to the Center Avenue Green Street and Storm Drain Improvements Project. Our team has an outstanding track record for completing projects efficiently and within budget. Here are some relevant examples:

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 4 Lake Drive Storm Drain Replacement
CITY OF ENCINITAS | ENCINITAS, CA
NV5 is providing engineering design services for the Lake Drive Storm Drain Replacement Project, which involves the replacement of approximately 2,000 feet of failed 48-inch corrugated metal pipe (CMP) with new reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) through an environmentally sensitive canyon area between Lake Drive and Interstate 5 (I-5). Design hydraulic analysis revealed the original pipe was significantly undersized, resulting in the failure of the system within the canyon. NV5 recommended that a new detention basin be constructed to attenuate the peak flows through the canyon. During the design period, due to significant rainfall events, a large sinkhole developed at the top of the project limits. NV5 worked closely with the City and emergency construction crews to produce an emergency “interim” design to collect and convey the drainage. The emergency response and “interim” design was subsequently recognized for awards by the San Diego chapters of both the APWA and ASCE.

Technical Design Lead. Mr. Moore is providing technical oversight and direction on the preparation of final design Plans, Specifications, and Estimate (PS&E) for this project, which consists of removal and replacement of approximately 2,000 LF of existing 48-inch Corrugated Metal Pipe (CMP) and associated appurtenances from the curb inlet along Lake Drive west through the canyon to I-5 (just before crossing under the freeway). The existing improvements will be replaced with new pipes and appurtenances of similar size and a suitable material. The new storm drain will generally follow the same alignment to preserve existing hydraulic conditions and minimize site disturbances as much as possible.

Los Angeles County Alondra Park Multibenefit
Stormwater Capture Project*
LOS ANGELES COUNTY | LOS ANGELES, CA
Project Manager. Mr. Moore led the design for this multidiscipline design project.

The project will revitalize an existing park with new stormwater infrastructure, new soccer and multipurpose turf fields, two rehabilitated baseball fields, landscaping, and lighting.

Ms. O’Neal is managing the team providing engineering design services for the Lake Drive Storm Drain Replacement Project, which involves the replacement of approximately 2,000 feet of failed 48-inch corrugated metal pipe (CMP) with new reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) through an environmentally sensitive canyon area between Lake Drive and Interstate 5 (I-5). The existing system collects runoff from the surrounding developed area and conveys it down a steep slope through a natural canyon and west toward I-5. Design hydraulic analysis revealed the original pipe was significantly undersized. Due to the undersized pipe and downstream constraints, designing a new detention basin was necessary to attenuate the peak flows through the canyon. During the design period, due to significant rainfall, a large sinkhole developed at the top of the project limits, eventually affecting a portion of Lake Drive and local utilities, prompting an emergency response by the City. NV5 worked closely with the City and the emergency construction crews to produce an emergency “interim” design to collect and convey the drainage. At the same time, the failed slope and adjacent roadway were reconstructed.

The 1-mile road improvement project stretched through a variety of zoned areas that required the roadway design width to vary throughout its length and meet the unique needs of each zoned area — commercial, high density, and residential. Roadway improvements included necessary demolition, relocation of overhead utilities, pavement rehabilitation, pavement overlay, curb, gutter, sidewalks, on-street parking, signage and striping, traffic control, signal modifications, drainage, traffic calming, retaining walls and landscaping.

Alley Paving Improvements
CITY OF IMPERIAL BEACH | IMPERIAL BEACH, CA
Ms. Asam prepared alley improvement, drainage improvement plans and specifications for an award-winning “Green Streets” project. Incorporating Low Impact Development techniques and complying with new stormwater regulations, the project paved 22, 20-foot-wide alleys to provide improved access to residences whose homes front the alleyways. The improved alley design called for a ‘V’-shaped cross-section with a 2-foot strip of pervious concrete along the center flowline with filtration material and an underdrain connecting to an existing storm drain system. In instances where no outfall was available, the underdrain was connected to a new dry well structure, which provided additional water quality benefits.

Our team is providing engineering and landscape architectural design services to our client, who is interested in reducing maintenance, capturing stormwater, and improving the roadside aesthetics on a mile of existing streets running through the center of town. The existing median landscapes are a mix of turf grasses, degraded shrub beds, and street trees, little of which is indigenous.

The replacement landscaping will feature tree protection, and the removal of the turf, shrubs, and aged underground irrigation systems. Once the site soils have been repaired and the new irrigation system installed, the medians will be planted with compatible groupings of native, drought-tolerant shrub and ground-cover plants. To improve the stormwater capture and pre-treatment, the finish grades will be modified to slope inward from the curbs, which should aid in the on-site retention and infiltration without affecting the roadway base and sub-base conditions.

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 24 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
Project Understanding
We understand that the City of Compton (City) entered
into a $10 million funding agreement with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) that authorized transfer of State funds to the City for the implementation of this Project. The funds transfer agreement was executed on June 24, 2022, and the City has since secured the
funding allocation.

The primary objectives of this multi-benefit project include:
1) the expansion and extension of the City’s existing
storm drain system with the construction of catch basins, lateral pipes, and gravity storm drain mainline along
Center Avenue; 2) installation of several structural Low Impact Development (LID) water quality Best Management
Practices (BMPS); and 3) ancillary pavement replacement within the limits of the storm drain improvements. Project implementation will result in multiple benefits including flood mitigation and water quality and water resilience improvements within the Compton Creek and Los Angeles
River watersheds.

PROJECT SETTING
The Project analysis and design focus area will be
predominately within S. Center Avenue from W. Greenleaf Boulevard to Alondra Boulevard and S. Center Avenue
from Alondra Boulevard to W. Laurel Street, and Alondra Boulevard from S. Center Avenue to Compton Creek. The
potential water quality capture area is approximately 150 acres of predominately residential development (See
Figure 1 below for Project Location).

Figure 1. Project Vicinity Map (with 150 acre watershed) City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 25 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
Existing main line storm drains within
the project area are shown on Figure
2 (at right) and consist of the following
systems:
• S. Wilmington Avenue (BI 2602,
Line D)
○ South of Compton Boulevard:
48-inch to 60” Reinforced
Concrete Pipe (RCP) on west side
of Wilmington flowing north to
Compton
• Alondra Boulevard (BI 2602, Line
E)
○ Wilmington Avenue to Compton
Creek: 33-inch to 48-inch RCP on
south side of Alondra Boulevard
flowing east to creek
• W. Greenleaf Boulevard (BI0422,
Line J)
○ Wilmington Avenue to Oleander
Street: 69-inch to 78” RCP on
south side of Greenleaf. There
is a 39-inch RCP lateral stub at
Center Avenue.

There are several local drainage
features within the project vicinity that
drain the local and collector roads that
include curb and gutter, cross gutters,
ribbon gutters, catch basins, small
diameter storm drain pipes, and outlets
to Compton Creek (See Figure 3 at
right).

Figure 2. Storm Drain Mainlines in Project Vicinity
Figure 3. Local Storm Drains in Project Vicinity
City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 26 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
The project area consists of gently sloping or nearly flat terrain with drainage from the residential areas generally toward the collector roads and associated mainline storm drains or toward Compton Creek. Based on a review of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood insurance rate maps, the Project area is not located within a FEMA mapped floodplain. Based on a review of aerial photos and street views, the intersections along S. Center Avenue in the residential neighborhood between Greenleaf Boulevard and Alondra Boulevard generally do not have any notable drainage features (with the exception of the two catch basins east of the S. Center Avenue and W. Raymond Street). Due to the general lack of curb, gutter, and drainage infrastructure, the roadway intersections along S. Center Avenue in this neighborhood, which is categorized as a two-lane collector road, experience shallow flooding and associated poor pavement conditions (See Figure 4 below).

Figure 4. Intersection of S. Center Avenue and W. Tichenor Street The residential neighborhood north of Alondra Boulevard is a more recent development than south of Alondra Boulevard with the street sections containing curb and gutter, cross gutters, and several catch basins. Intersection flooding does not appear to be an issue in this neighborhood (See Figure 5 below).

Figure 5. Intersection of S. Center Avenue and W. Cypress Street City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 27 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
An update of the Citywide Pavement Management Program
(PMP) was issued in 2024. This report provides Pavement Condition Indices (PCI) for each roadway section in the City network, along with recommended maintenance
and repair strategies and a forecasted maintenance and
rehabilitation report based on 2024 roadway inspections.

A summary of the pavement conditions within the Project vicinity is shown in Figure 6 below. Note that S. Center Ave. has very poor PCI scores south of Alondra Blvd. (PCI < 40), and poor (PCI 41-59) to fair (PCI 60-74) scores
north of Alondra Blvd. Alondra Blvd. east of S. Center Ave. is rated as very good. The maintenance type assigned to S. Center Ave. from W. Greenleaf Blvd. to W. Laurel St. is Asphalt Rubber Hot Mix (ARHM) in Fiscal Year 2026-2027.

Alondra Blvd. from S. Center Ave. to Compton Creek is
not scheduled for near term maintenance. Although the
primary focus of the Project based on the Caltrans funding agreement project description is not PMP implementation, the PMP report information can help inform and prioritize future drainage and roadway upgrades in the Project

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 28 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
Project Approach and Resources
The main objective of the project design approach is to first satisfy the Project objectives set forth in the funding agreement with Caltrans. These objectives are focused
on flood mitigation, water quality improvements, and
enhanced recreational opportunities in areas that currently lack adequate drainage and green space. Secondary
project benefits will be realized by roadway surface
replacement in the vicinity of Project elements, particularly along S. Center Avenue.

The general project design approach will consist of the following primary scope elements which are discussed in more detail below.

Scope Elements
• Project Management
• Data Collection and Review
• Survey and Topography
• Utility Research and Mapping
• Geotechnical Study
• Drainage Study and Stormwater Management Plan
• Conceptual Design
• Environmental Compliance (CEQA)
• Final Design (PS&E)
• Bid and Construction

PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Prior to initiating preliminary design development, the NV5 team will conduct a kick-off meeting with the City’s project manager to clarify scope tasks, deliverables, assumptions, budget, schedule, invoicing, reporting, and roles and
responsibilities. In coordination with the City, the NV5 team will establish regular monthly project progress check-in meetings and milestone deliverable review meetings. NV5 project management will also consist of project schedule tracking and updates, monthly invoicing and progress
reports, agency and other coordination as needed.

Deliverables:

Meeting agendas and minutes, monthly progress reports

DATA COLLECTION AND REVIEW
Prior to initiating field visits or activities, the NV5 team will collect reports, storm drain, street, and other improvement plan drawings that are readily available online, or obtained by research at the City, County, and Caltrans offices. It is anticipated that the initial data obtained will be storm drain, sewer, water and street record drawings, floodplain mapping, hydrology and hydraulic reports, watershed
studies, and other background information. This will
include a comprehensive inventory of existing drainage
facilities including review of as-built record drawings obtained from the Los Angeles County Public Works Flood Control District and Caltrans. Following this initial data collection and review effort, members of the NV5 design team will conduct on-site field review and data collection to verify the location of drainage facilities, drainage patterns, roadway conditions, and items that require detailed field survey information. NV5 designers will collect information on existing project vicinity drainage, roadway, and other features using handheld GPS data recorders, cameras,
and portable computers to log and record the information for later review at the office and to coordinate with the NV5 survey group prior to their field survey work. The data collected in the field by the designers will be cataloged and mapped in a GIS and/or platform for future reference by the entire design team and the City.

Note that the RFP requested the following information:
“Describe options available for data gathering, rating
Calculations, photo or video features, retrieval of data, report capabilities, mapping abilities, etc. Also, describe options available and recommend actions for maintaining the information (by the City), once turned over and
accepted. Describe process of analysis to be used to
make recommendations for roadway improvements and
projections related to annual allocation needs, impact of not funding needs, etc. Describe impact each alternate
item would have on collection process of project.” The NV5 team will gather field data using standard data retrieval procedures using handheld GPS units and/or tablets with data transferred to a GIS application for storage, display, and mapping. The team will work with the City to format the data so that it can be utilized by the City.

Deliverables:

GIS, CAD, photos, and notes of design field investigations

UTILITY RESEARCH AND MAPPING
NV5’s utility lead (AirX) will research existing utility infrastructure including franchise utilities. The goal
is to identify all utilities that may be impacted by the improvement project, including research of the Prior Rights to clearly identify parties responsible for relocation of applicable utilities. The NV5 team routinely engages in utility company coordination for various design projects in the Region so are aware of most providers and their
requirements. NV5 will provide the City with verification of utility company review of design plans and/or verification of utility research. NV5 will lead the utility coordination effort and maintain a log of utilities and status. Utility location and potholing recommendations and exhibits will be prepared at this stage for City review prior to engaging utility location contractors. It is anticipated that the utility coordination effort will be focused along S. Center Avenue, Alondra Boulevard, and at the intersections of S. Center Avenue and W. Greenleaf Boulevard and Center Avenue
and Alondra Boulevard — intersections where there a
number of existing underground and overhead utilities.

Deliverables:

Subsurface utility 2D basemap, utility record drawings, and log of utility company coordination

GEOTECHNICAL STUDY
The purpose of the geotechnical investigation will be
to provide geotechnical information for the proposed
improvements and provide recommendations, from
a geotechnical standpoint, regarding storm drain and
utility installation, pavement structural evaluation, and pavement replacement along S. Center Avenue and
Alondra Boulevard. Our proposed scope of services for the geotechnical investigation will include the following:
• Review of preliminary project plans, if available.
• Prepare traffic control plans and obtain a right-of-way, and boring permits from the City of Compton and the
County of Los Angeles
• Site visit and mark-out of proposed boring locations.

As required by the state of California, NV5 will notify Underground Service Alert of the locations of our
planned exploration prior to drilling. NV5 will also
utilize a private utility locator to mark utilities at the proposed boring locations. Any available subsurface
utility information should also be provided to NV5 prior to initiating field exploration to reduce the potential for damaging existing utilities at the site.
• Perform a field investigation of the underlying
geotechnical subsurface conditions at the site by
advancing up to nine (9) exploratory borings at depths
between 10 to 20 feet below ground surface (bgs) or
practical refusal at select locations along the project alignments within public right-of-way.
○ Borings will be drilled using a hollow-stem auger
truck-mounted drill rig.
○ The exploratory borings will be logged and sampled
by a qualified geologist or an engineer from NV5.
○ Borings performed in paved areas within the public
right-of-way are assumed to require hot patching
in accordance with permit requirements. Please
note that budget has been included for asphalt
hot patching, assuming approximately nine (9)
locations. NV5 assumes hot patching of 8-inch
diameter bore holes with 5-7 inches of asphaltic
concrete (AC) (material: PG64-10 hot-mix), rolled for
compaction and smoothness, SS1H tack bonding oil
to existing asphalt edges, not requiring edge overlay.
• Conducting up to four (4) infiltration tests at
depths up to 5 feet below ground surface (bgs) or
practical refusal at select locations along the project alignments within public right-of-way.
• Traffic control for borings located in the public rightof-way will be provided in accordance with W.A.T.C.H Manual for Traffic Control and permit requirements.

NV5 has assumed that approximately six (6) days
of traffic control will be required for the following
activities:
• Field exploration (exploratory borings), and
• Hot patching
• Based on NV5’s review of the preliminary project
information, it is understood that the exploration
locations will be in the public right-of-way and traffic control will be required. The services of a traffic
control subcontractor have been included for all nine
(9) locations.
• Appropriate laboratory testing of representative
samples of the soils encountered. Laboratory tests
may include in-situ moisture content and density,
soil classification (sieve analysis), Atterberg Limits, sand equivalent, expansion index, direct shear tests,
R-value and corrosivity testing.
• Evaluate the accumulated information and develop
conclusions and recommendations addressing the
geotechnical aspects of the project.
• Preparation of a geotechnical report summarizing
the results of our geotechnical investigation and
presenting recommendations, from a geotechnical
standpoint, regarding the proposed construction. The
City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 32 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
report will discuss the current site conditions, geologic hazards and general geotechnical conditions affecting
the project site. Items addressed will include the
following:
○ Existing pavement sections
○ Recommendations regarding trench excavatability
○ Stability of temporary excavations
○ Trench bottom stability
○ Modulus of soil reaction
○ Groundwater
○ Pipe backfill and compaction
○ Suitability of existing soils for use as backfill
materials
○ Soil corrosivity
○ Lateral bearing capacity and thrust block design
parameters
○ Seismic design parameters
○ Stormwater Infiltration
○ Pavement Design
• Geotechnical review of technical specifications for
adherence with the Geotechnical Investigation report
and the field conditions encountered during the
investigation. Sections to be reviewed will include
earthwork, foundations, pipeline backfill and concrete.

Subsequent to the review, NV5 will prepare a letter
indicating the results of the review.

Deliverables:

Draft and Final Geotechnical Report

DRAINAGE STUDY AND STORMWATER

MANAGEMENT PLAN
The NV5 team will utilize the information gathered from the previous tasks to prepare a drainage study of the
project area to determine the locations of deficiencies, if any, within the mainline storm drains located in Alondra Boulevard and W. Greenleaf Boulevard, as well as the local and collector street flow capacities, location of sumps, and extent of surface ponding locations along and adjacent
to S. Center Avenue. The hydrology and hydraulic analysis will utilize Los Angeles County Public Works criteria and methodology to evaluate existing drainage patterns and
storm drain pipes, surface runoff rates and volumes, and proposed storm drain catch basin and pipe design flow
rates. Hydrology calculations will utilize County-approved hydrology software such as the Watershed Modeling
System (WMS), XP-SWMM, or HydroCalc. Detailed storm
drain hydraulic calculations will be performed using the WSPG-W computer program.

If the original hydrology studies for the existing storm drain systems in Alondra Boulevard and Greenleaf Boulevard
cannot be located, hydrology studies will be conducted
to calculate expected peak 50-year flow rates within
these systems to evaluate existing condition hydraulic
grade lines, capacity, and potential flooding concerns.

The baseline analysis of the existing mainline storm drain will allow us to determine potential project impacts on the existing storm drain systems and potential need for upgrades.

Based on the existing topography and storm drain pipe
sizes in Alondra Boulevard and W. Greenleaf Boulevard, it is expected that a proposed storm drain system in Center Avenue will need to be split with connections to both the Alondra Boulevard and W. Greenleaf Boulevard storm
drains. Note that the as-built record drawings indicate that there should be an existing 39-inch RCP lateral stub-out at the intersection of S. Center Avenue and W. Greenleaf Boulevard (See Figure 7 on page 34).

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 33 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
Figure 7. S. Center Avenue Drainage Areas
The draft drainage study will inform the preliminary storm drain design including the preferred location and size of inlets, laterals, and mainline pipes along S. Center Avenue.

The draft drainage study will also evaluate the 85thpercentile, 24-hour storm event runoff volumes and peak flow rates to be used for the LID structural BMP design and documented in a Project Stormwater Management
Plan (SWMP). The SWMP will utilize an appropriate report template and identify the regional and project area surface and groundwater quality conditions, the minimum water
quality treatment requirements, and provide a stepwise approach for the selection of the recommended project LID structural BMPs, operation and maintenance
requirements and schedule for the BMPs. A variety of LID structural BMPs will be considered that will be specifically designed to capture and/or treat stormwater flow that
would otherwise contribute to the current flooding problem and water quality issues within Compton Creek. Potential LID BMPs consist of bio-retention/infiltration planters, flow through bio-filtration planters or swales; tree wells; dry wells; and permeable pavement. Selection of the LID BMPs and landscape vegetation will consider long-term
water quality treatment effectiveness, operation and
maintenance ease and costs, and aesthetic value within
the neighborhood.

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN (30% LEVEL PLANS)
Upon completion of the tasks above including draft
reports, the NV5 design team will prepare conceptual
design plans for City review and approval. The conceptual design plans will provide the conceptual design layout of the proposed storm drain system including catch basin/
inlet types, locations, and sizes; storm drain pipe locations and sizes; LID structural BMP types, locations, and sizing; conceptual landscape features and vegetation types;
and recommended street improvements. The 30% level
conceptual plans will also identify locations of potential temporary construction access easements, if required.

The objective of the 30% level conceptual plans is to allow project stakeholders to review and provide input on the main project construction element locations, types, and sizes, and to provide enough design level information
for environmental studies (CEQA analysis). It is currently anticipated that the project subsurface and surface design elements will be focused along S. Center Avenue and
Alondra Boulevard east of S. Center Avenue.

Based on an initial review of the Project area, the following are some key Project design considerations that will
require discussion and coordination with the City at the conceptual design level.
• S. Center Avenue south of Alondra Boulevard is a
relatively flat-sloped, narrow roadway and right-of-way, with no existing or continuous curb or gutter.
○ Early coordination with the City on the expected
street section is critical to the design of the storm
drain and LID BMP features.
○ This creates potential challenges for grading and
ADA requirements.
• Residential area construction along the narrow
roadway could require significant community and
resident notification, input, and interaction.
• Existing storm drain capacity of the main line in
Alondra Boulevard may be limited due to relatively
small pipe size with the flat slope. A proposed
storm drain system in S. Center Avenue will require
connections to both the Alondra Boulevard storm
drain and the W. Greenleaf Boulevard storm drain
systems to distribute the flows, so as to avoid overburdening either system, with the goal of avoiding any storm drain upsizing of either existing system,
especially including storm drain outfall modifications
that could trigger costly and lengthy environmental
analysis and permitting.

Deliverables:
30% Level Conceptual Design Plans and Cost Estimate
including the following sheets: Title, Notes, Survey/Topo, Demolition and Utility Relocations, Grading, Storm Drain Improvements, LID BMP details and landscape planting
palette, Street Improvements, Landscape Planting.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE (CEQA)
The City did not identify California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance as part of the Request for Proposal (RFP); however, it will be needed to complete this Project.

The following scope of work is provided assuming that
the City does not plan to prepare and process the CEQA
documents internally. Compass Consulting can lead the
CEQA environmental analysis if requested by the City.

The primary objectives of CEQA are to (1) inform decision makers and the public about the potential, significant
environmental effects of proposed projects and activities; (2) identify ways to avoid or mitigate environmental
damage; (3) avoid or reduce environmental impacts by
requiring implementation of an environmentally preferable alternative or feasible mitigation measures; and (4)
disclose to the public the reasons for approval of projects with significant environmental effects through the use of a statement of overriding considerations, where applicable. (CEQA Guidelines, § 15002.)
CEQA defines a “project” as an activity that (1) is a
discretionary action by a governmental agency and (2)
will either have a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect impact on the environment. (Pub. Res. Code, § 21065.

is a discretionary project in that the City has discretion over the design, funding, and construction of the project.

The Project will have a direct and indirect impact on the environment in that it will require the construction of new storm drain pipelines and other facilities.

The required CEQA review process can result in
three different determination/document types — an
exemption, an Initial Study with Negative Declaration or Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/ND or IS/MND), or
an Environmental Impact Report (EIR). The anticipated
significant impacts (or lack thereof) associated with the project governs the “level” of determination or document to be prepared.

The most common exemption under CEQA is the
Categorical Exemption (CE). The CEQA Guidelines (§§
15301-15333) list 33 categories (or classes) of projects that qualify for exemption. These classes are project types that are common and typically have no significant impacts associated with them. If a project fits within any of these classes, it can be considered categorically exempt and
City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 35 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
generally needs no further CEQA analysis. It is important when assessing a potential project for a CE that the project “fit” directly within the confines of the intent of the CE. In general, modifications to existing facilities are covered by various CEs. The CEs most closely matching the Project
description include the following:
• Section 15301 - Class 1: Existing Facilities: Consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting,
leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no
expansion of use beyond that existing at the time
of the lead agency’s determination. The types of
“existing facilities” itemized below are not intended
to be all-inclusive of the types of projects which might fall within Class 1. The key consideration is whether
the project involves negligible or no expansion of an
existing use. An example can be existing facilities
by both investor and publicly-owned utilities used to
provide electric power, natural gas, sewerage, or other public utility services.
• Section 15302 – Class 2: Replacement or
Reconstruction. Class 2 consists of replacement or
reconstruction of existing structures and facilities
where the new structure will be located on the
same site as the structure replaced and will have
substantially the same purpose and capacity as the
structure replaced.

There are instances, however, where a project may
not qualify for an exemption even if it fits into one of the 33 exempt classes. These are called exceptions to
the categorical exemptions. These exceptions apply to
projects that: are located in certain specified sensitive environments (applies only to Classes 3, 4, 5, 6, and
11); are located on a site included on any list compiled pursuant to California Government Code § 65962.5
(“Cortese List”); may damage scenic resources within
an officially designated state scenic highway; may
cause a substantial adverse change in the significance
of a historical resource; may have a significant effect on the environment due to unusual circumstances, or
may contribute to significant cumulative impacts (CEQA
Guidelines § 15300.2). To determine if an exception exists, technical studies are often prepared.

Given that the scope of work for the Project would add
sections of storm drain, and add low-impact development features, catch basins, etc., and because of the large area of the City affected by the Project, Compass, at this stage, does not believe that a Section 15301 – Class 1 Existing Facilities or Section 15302 – Class 2: Replacement or
Reconstruction Exemption would apply.

It should be noted that the final determination of the level of determination rests with the City as the Lead Agency.

Compass recommends that Public Works discuss with
City Planning the level of determination for this Project.

For proposal scoping purposes, the worst case scenario
of an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration is
assumed. If the City Planning Department agrees that an Exemption would be appropriate, Compass would adjust
the scope and cost accordingly and provide a reduced
scope of work and fee.

Additionally, because Caltrans is involved in funding,
it is unknown at this time what it may require for
environmental compliance. Compass will discuss with
Caltrans what it anticipates as being required for their CEQA compliance and coordinate its decision with the
City. As discussed, an Initial Study is the most “safe” assumption for the purposes of this RFP until it is
determined otherwise.

Task 1: Kick-off, Design Reviews, Site Visit, and
Project Description
The Project Description serves as the basis for all
of the CEQA documentation and any permitting.

A thorough Project Description helps the project
proceed smoothly and will ensure that the CEQA
documents and permitting are assessing the same
parameters. Compass will work with the clients and
the City to prepare a thorough Project Description
that will cover all aspects of the project design,
construction, and operations. Compass can also
assist with designing the project to avoid or minimize
potential impacts. Compass will attend a kick-off
meeting with the Project Team to finalize the Project
Description and document the environmental
conditions. Compass will prepare a Project Description
for use in the CEQA Initial Study.

This deliverable assumes one set of consolidated
revisions.

Task 2: Technical Studies
The Initial Study will require a number of studies to be prepared to support the analysis. Compass will rely on
the following studies prepared by the design team:
• Soils/Geotechnical
• Hydrology/Water Quality Management Plan
• Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment –
hazardous waste (if applicable)
The following studies are also required to support
City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 36 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
the Initial Study Analysis, and Compass proposes to
complete these studies.

It should be noted that even if a CEQA Exemption
is determined to be the acceptable compliance
documentation, that these technical studies would
still be required to ensure that there are no significant impacts.

1. Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Assessment/
Energy – Subconsultant: MD Acoustics. This
study identifies the air quality and greenhouse gas
emissions that would be used during construction.

In general, the scope of services includes the
following:
• Evaluate the existing conditions of the project
study area; this will include gathering background
air quality data, local wind patterns in the study
area and identifying applicable rules, plans, and
thresholds of significance.
• Identify construction-related air quality impacts
from associated construction activities at the
project site which may include demolition, import/
export of fill dirt, mass grading, etc.
• Quantify and disclose greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions that will be emitted as a result of
construction activity. The analysis will discuss
project design/mitigation measures that will help
reduce greenhouse gas emissions resulting from
the proposed project and determine if the project
has a significant impact on greenhouse gas
emissions.
• Summarize the results of the study in an air quality
and greenhouse gas evaluation report addressing
the potential impacts associated with the
development. These reports will also summarize
the recommended air quality and greenhouse gas
mitigation measures applicable to the proposed
project.

The CEQA Initial Study requires that energy
consumption of a project be analyzed. Therefore, an
energy consumption study for construction will be
performed.

2. Biological Resources Report – Subconsultant
Jennings Environmental. The Initial Study
requires the preparation of a Biological Resources
Assessment. Compass will prepare this report,
consistent with current standards. It should be
noted that an arborist-level survey is not included
at this time. The Biological Resources Report would
address the number of street trees that would need
further evaluation by an arborist to determine if the
excavation of new sewer lines would impact any Tree
Protection Zone. A line item for an arborist estimate
is provided in this task, but the actual costs and
scope would be based on a recommendation by the
biologist.

3. Cultural Resources Assessment/Paleontological
Resources Assessment – Subconsultant CRM
Tech. This task generally includes the following:
records searches (archaeological and historical,
paleontological), request of a sacred lands
file search from the Native American Heritage
Commission, a field survey, and a final report.

Native American tribal consultation will also be
required in accordance with AB52, but the City
will lead the consultation with the tribes. The
cultural resources study will include a search of
Native American resources to assist in the City’s
consultation.

4. Noise Study – Subconsultant: MD Acoustics
(Reserved). CEQA requires the identification of noise
from the project. At this time, based on the scope
of work in the RFP, there would be no pile driving
or other construction methods that would require
a noise study. Because the scope of work would
be developed during the design and engineering
phase, this line item is being reserved in the event
construction methods would require a construction
noise analysis.

Task 3: Prepare CEQA Initial Study

1. Administrative Draft Initial Study. Upon approval
of the Project Description by the Client, Compass
will prepare an Administrative Draft Initial Study for
the Project, using the latest 2024 CEQA checklist
with mitigation and supporting documentation as
required. The Administrative Draft includes a draft
and one set of revisions for Client review prior to
sending for review by the City.

Overall, the Initial Study will analyze the Project
under the following criteria, as required by the 2024
CEQA Checklist:
• Aesthetics
• Agriculture and Forestry
• Air Quality
• Biological Resources
• Cultural Resources
• Energy
• Geology and Soils
City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 37 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES
• Greenhouse Gases
• Hazards and Hazardous Materials
• Hydrology and Water Quality
• Land Use /Planning
• Mineral Resources
• Noise
• Population and Housing
• Public Services
• Recreation
• Traffic and Circulation
• Tribal Cultural Resources
• Utilities
• Wildfire
• Mandatory Findings of Significance
Deliverable:

Administrative Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative
Declaration, assuming one round of consolidated
comments.

2. Screencheck Draft Initial Study. Once the Client
has approved the Administrative Draft Initial Study,
Compass will prepare a Screencheck Draft to the
City for City staff review and comment. Comments
will be incorporated into a second version of the
Screencheck Draft. Once the City approves the
Screencheck Draft, Compass will assemble the Final
Draft ISMND for public review. This task assumes
two sets of revisions from the City, including
revisions to technical studies if required.

3. Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
(MMRP). The Screencheck Draft will include a
Draft Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program.

Compass will provide the MMRP to the client prior
to submittal to the City with the Screencheck Draft
Initial Study.

Task 4: Notices and Circulation for Public Review
Upon approval of the Final Draft ISMND for public review, Compass will finalize the document and prepare notices
for the City to conduct a 20- or 30-day public review,
depending on their direction. Compass assumes that
it will prepare the Notice of Intent, but the City would provide the mailing to all affected residents as well as provide a notice in the newspaper. This task includes the preparation of the Notice of Completion and the State
Clearinghouse Summary Form for the City’s submittal to
the State Clearinghouse. It should be noted that Compass can submit the documentation to the State Clearinghouse, however, the City Planning Department would need to
provide Compass access to the City’s State Clearinghouse account. Therefore, it is recommended that the Public
Works Department representative for this project obtain a contact in the City Planning Department to coordinate the public circulation submittal. Compass will work with the City to achieve the final results.

Task 5: Final Initial Study
Upon completion of the public review period, Compass will review any public comments received on the document
and discuss any substantive changes that should be made to the project or the ISMND as a result of the comments received. Compass will make any revisions to the ISMND
as determined necessary and prepare a Final ISMND
and Final MMRP. Compass will prepare the Notice of
Determination (NOD) to be filed with the County Clerk of the Board and State Clearinghouse. The final document is what the City would take to the Planning Commission and/ or City Council for approval.

Task 6: Project Management, Meetings,
and Public Hearing

1. CEQA Document Management. Compass
recommends our attendance at up to three meetings
with City staff throughout the project design and
environmental review process. This includes
coordination with the subconsultants and the Client
for Project revisions and questions and quality
assurance/quality control of subcontractor reports.

2. Project Management, Meetings and Coordination.

This task assumes attendance of up to 12 video
calls with the engineering team to finalize the
design and discuss revisions. In addition to meeting
attendance, project management activities will
include schedule management, and contract
management. Compass will coordinate with the City
and the applicant throughout the project to discuss
results of analyses, obtain additional information
as necessary, resolve any contract administration
issues, and provide schedule updates. This task
also assumes Compass’ attendance at one public
hearing to assist the City during the adoption of the
IS/MND.

The Project Engineer will provide all engineering data
in GIS format for use in graphic analysis.

3. Subconsultant Management. This task includes
coordinating subconsultants and reviewing/revising
their reports for client submittal.

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 38 D: PROJECT APPROACH & RESOURCES

FINAL DESIGN
Once the City approves the conceptual design and the
Project has received a notice of determination under
CEQA, NV5’s design team will prepare the construction bid documents for 60%, 90%, and 100% submittal reviews
by the City. The construction bid documents will include detailed construction plans, technical specifications,
the engineer’s estimate of probable construction costs
(PS&E). The Plan packages will include 1”=40’ scale
design drawings and appropriate design details for existing utility, survey, and topographic base sheets, demolition and utility relocations, storm drain street improvements, LID structural BMPs, grading plans, landscape planting
and irrigation, traffic control and staging, temporary water pollution control, and log of borings.

The construction cost estimate will require frequent
updates as the design progresses to ensure that the unit price information is up to date based on the best available cost information and the project construction budget stays within the allocated Project funding.

Deliverables:
60%, 90%, 100% design level plans, specifications and
estimate in electronic format. Final signed hardcopy plans shall also be provided.

BID AND CONSTRUCTION
Bid Support
NV5 will assist the City with the preparation of Bid
Documents including: signed plans, specifications, and
cost estimate; geotechnical report; hydrology/hydraulics report; environmental studies; and environmental
permits. During the bidding process, NV5 will also prepare responses to the bidder’s questions as needed, and assist the City with the contractor selection process, as needed.

Deliverables:

1. Bid Package Materials (signed plans, specs,
estimate, reports, studies, permits – PDF format).

2. Responses to bidder’s questions (Word Document or
Excel File and PDF).

Engineering Services During Construction
NV5 will provide engineering support services during
construction including: response to requests for
information (RFIs); review of submittals/shop drawing;
prepare and process plan revisions; attendance at
construction meetings (as needed); preparation of as-built record drawings. This scope of work does not include NV5 construction management services or day-to-day on-site

NV5 construction management team led by Luanne Bean
can provide a scope and fee for construction management services for consideration by the City.

Public Outreach: If requested, NV5 can prepare a scope
and fee to prepare and implement a construction phase
Public Outreach Plan and initiate outreach to address
community concerns and implement ways to minimize
construction impact. This could include meetings, mailers, and informational exhibits and fact sheet distribution.

ASSUMPTIONS AND EXCLUSIONS (NOT ALREADY

LISTED ABOVE)

1. Scope of work is based on Center Ave. Green Street
project fact sheet and Caltrans funding agreement
scope.
a. The scope of work does not include pavement
management assessment or recommendations for
the areas outside of the Center Ave and Alondra
storm drain/LID design and construction (refer to
pavement management studies)

2. Project Area per Center Avenue Project Information
Sheet ~ 150 ac drainage area.

3. No sewer house lateral work outside of right of way.

4. No permanent property acquisition.

5. All final construction elements are within existing
right of way. However, temporary access easements

City of Compton | Center Avenue Green Street & Storm Drain Improvements NV5 | 39 E: PROJECT SCHEDULE & MANAGEMENT
Project Schedule and Management
A detailed Project schedule included on page 41 includes the expected durations of the scope tasks described above.

Note that the RFP includes a request that “the respondent shall demonstrate and provide specific examples of its ability to complete the design of a road reconstruction project of this size and nature within a predetermined schedule proved by the owner, which is 2 months as anticipated. Describe impact each alternate item would have on project schedule.” However, the RFP does not describe or indicate what the alternate items should include. A two-month design schedule does not appear to be feasible based on the nature of this Project which entails more than road reconstruction as it includes a significant storm drain and LID BMP design effort with associated data collection, reports, and environmental clearance. The schedule presented with this proposal provides our best and reasonable estimate of the likely Project schedule based on estimate hours, task duration, and critical path items.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A FIVE-YEAR

AGREEMENT WITH AND ISSUE A PURCHASE ORDER TO ENVISIO

FOR INTERNAL-AUDIT-REPORTING SOFTWARE SERVICES AND

OPTIONAL PERFORMANCE METRIC REPORTING SOFTWARE
SERVICES ($151,095).

SUMMARY
Adoption of this resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a five-year agreement and issue a purchase order to Envisio for software services related to internalaudit-reporting and for performance metrics software services ($151,095).

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton Single Audit Report of Fiscal Year 2019-2020 stated the following (below) audit findings and recommendations related to Internal Audit Operations of the City:

Audit Finding #2014-118B – Information:

Criteria: Development or revision of information systems is based on the strategic plan linked to the entity’s overall strategy, and is responsive to achieving City-wide objectives.

Recommendation: We recommend the City have development or revision of information systems based on the City’s overall strategy. These systems should also be responsive to achieving City-wide objectives.

Audit Finding #2014-119B – Information:

Criteria: Management supports the development of necessary information systems and shows its support by committing appropriate resources.

Recommendation: We recommend that City Management support the development of necessary information systems, including committing appropriate resources.

Audit Finding #2014-126B – On Going Monitoring:

Criteria: Communications from external parties are corroborated with internally generated data and able to indicate problems with internal control.

Condition: Internal Control issues noted in prior years’ reviews and audits had not been addressed by management. – SCO Finding 14:

Recommendation: We recommend the City adopt formal governance processes and procedures to provide appropriate oversight of internal audit functions and activities, and respond in a timely manner to recommendations.

7. Staff Report
Envisio
February 4, 2025
2 Audit Finding #2014-133B – Separate Evaluation:

Criteria: The evaluations are conducted by the City Auditor’s Office, who has sufficient resources, ability, and independence
Condition: The City does not have a City Auditor’s Office Recommendation: We recommend that once an internal control unit has been established that the City ensures that they have the necessary resources, ability, and independence.

Audit Finding #2014-136B - Report Deficiencies:

Criteria: Deficiencies are reported to the person directly responsible and to a person at least one level higher.

Condition: Deputy Treasurer admitted to embezzling money from the City’s cash receipts on 12/15/16. The Mayer Hoffman McCann CPA firm reported that it was unable to reach an opinion n whether the City’s FY2010-11 June financial statements were free of material misstatements, due to their inability to obtain sufficient evidence from the Mayor or the City with respect to the Mayor’s concerns of fraud on 7/24/12. Governance practices recommended by the FY2011-12 Civil Grand Jury Report were not implemented, such as: develop a strategic plan, develop and report on performance measures, develop specific goals for the City’s executive and conduct annual evaluation of City’s executive.

The City Council failed to exercises oversight over the City’s financial and operational activities. Prior years’ audit and review finding and recommendation were not implemented. Related Finding SCO 3, 7, 17.

Recommendation: We recommend that issues and deficiencies are directly communicated to the Responsible Personnel and elevated to someone at least a level higher.

Audit Finding #2014-137B – Report Deficiencies:

Criteria: The identified transactions or events are investigated to determine causes and correct problems:

Condition: Prior years’ audit and review issues had not been corrected. SCO Finding 17.

Recommendation: We recommend the City develop a priority schedule of the identified audit findings and establish an estimated completion date to allow the City to focus on the items that need more immediate attention. Going forward, we recommend that an audit committee be responsible overseeing the response to audit findings and the implementation of the City’s corrective action plans.

Audit Finding #2014-110B – Common Categories of Control Activities:

Criteria: Managers review performance reports
Recommendation: We recommend that City Management review performance reports to gain an understanding where additional training or other corrective actions are necessary.

Other audit findings that are related are:

Audit finding # 2014 – 102B Risk Identification, #2014 – 103B Risk Identification, #2014- 104B – Risk Identification, #104-124B – On-going Monitoring, #2014-134B Separate Evaluation; #2014-135B Report Deficiencies; Audit Finding #2014-086B – Management Staff Report

The City needs technical expertise to advance the goals and policies of the Mayor and Council in order to actively respond, implement, and report the status of corrective action or of City department performance metrics.

The Single Audit report itself was approximately 239 pages, which included approximately 227 pages of audit findings related to a variety of operational areas of the City. The findings spanned various departments and activities of the City as well, and spanned various responsible parties tasked with implementing corrective action plans.

Although many of the corrective actions plans have been implemented or are still in progress, staff recommends that the proper organization of the findings, corrective action plans, and progress related to the Single Audit, or related to any other audit of the City, should be made available electronically, and in an organized fashion, to those responsible for oversight, evaluation, and testing. Many of the recommendations shown above also support the need for greater communication and greater effectiveness in oversight in regards to corrective action plans and audit findings.

Due to this need, City Controller staff searched for a software platform capable of organizing the City’s various audit findings across multiple audits, which would also be able to report, sort, and filter on the following attributes of those audit findings:
 Finding Number and Title
 Criteria
 Condition
 Recommendation
 Cause
 Effect
 Repeated Finding (Y/N)
 Recommendation
 City’s Response
 Corrective Action Plan
 Planned Implementation Date
 Responsible Persons
 Auditor comment on Corrective Action Plan Progress
 City’s comment on Corrective Action Plan Progress
Currently, the data regarding these audit findings is only contained in a report which cannot be sorted or filtered. Additionally, the existing report is not flexible or tailorable for Staff Report
Envisio
February 4, 2025
4 varied audiences. Also as time progresses, and corrective action plans get implemented, the past audit findings get omitted from newer reports.

However, due to the high turnover of staff at the City, it is important for all audit findings, and their corrective action plans to be organized and continuously evaluated and monitored in a user-friendly reporting format. This will assist the City and staff to prevent repeated audit findings, or prevent new audit findings in the future. It will also assist in City-resource-planning to identify areas of high risk.

Additionally, the City is also in need of an organized data gathering and reporting platform for Departmental Performance Metrics reporting. Per Audit Finding #2014-110B – Common Categories of Control Activities, the Auditor has recommended that City Management review performance reports to gain an understanding of where additional training or other corrective actions are necessary. City Management monitoring of performance metrics allows for risk identification and increased levels of communication between departments and City Management.

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
City staff in the Controller’s office have reached out for quotes from vendors who could possibly provide a software solution to organize and provide reporting on the City’s various audit findings, corrective action plans, performance metrics, and their attributes that need a user-friendly-reporting mechanism. Staff searched Planet Bids library and website, and Google for suitable software.

The vendors contacted were: Responsiveness
 Auditfindings.com No license in California, not responsive  isoTracker Solutions Ltd Software for auditing only, not audit finding reporting, not responsive
 PPC’s Workpapers for Local Governm Software for auditing only, not audit Thompson Reuters finding reporting, not responsive
 My Audit Spot Platform Not Based in the USA, no customer services, not responsive
 Envisio Bid received, responsive to City’ s needs
The search for this specialized reporting software ended with Envisio, after contacting various other possibilities that were not responsive to the City’s needs. Envisio Solutions Inc. is a cloud-based Strategic Planning, Performance Management, Project Management & Reporting Software for government agencies. Their proprietary software and services provide unique capabilities not offered elsewhere. Envisio Solutions Inc. is the sole vendor offering a specialized solution designed for the public sector and Staff Report

WHEREAS, staff recommends that the proper organization of the findings, corrective action plans, and progress related to the Single Audit, or related to any other audit of the City, should be made available electronically, and in an organized fashion, to those responsible for oversight, evaluation, and testing.

WHEREAS, currently, the data regarding these audit findings is only contained in a report which cannot be sorted or filtered. Additionally, the existing report is not flexible or tailorable for varied audiences. Also as time progresses, and corrective action plans get implemented, the past audit findings get omitted from newer reports.

WHEREAS, due to the high turnover of staff at the City, it is important for all audit findings, and their corrective action plans to be organized and continuously evaluated and monitored in a user-friendly reporting format. This will assist the City and staff to prevent repeated audit findings, or prevent new audit findings in the future. It will also assist in Cityresource-planning to identify areas of high risk.

WHEREAS, the City is also in need of an organized data gathering and reporting platform for Departmental Performance Metrics reporting. Per Audit Finding #2014-110B – Common Categories of Control Activities, the Auditor has recommended that City Management review performance reports to gain an understanding of where additional training or other corrective actions are necessary. City Management monitoring of performance metrics allows for risk identification and increased levels of communication between departments and City Management.

WHEREAS, City staff in the Controller’s office have reached out for quotes from vendors who could possibly provide a software solution to organize and provide reporting on Resolution No. _________
