TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY 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 PROFESSIONAL

SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH AND ESTABLISH A PURCHASE ORDER

FOR FOUNTAINHEAD CONSULTING CORPORATION FOR CONSTRUCTION

MANAGEMENT AND INSPECTION SERVICES FOR THE ANNUAL
RESIDENTIAL STREET REHABILITATION PROJECT, CIP NO. 18-01, PHASE 2C ($474,728)

SUMMARY
Adoption of this Resolution will authorize the City Manager to enter into a professional services agreement with Fountainhead Consulting Corporation and establish a purchase order in the amount of $474,728 for construction management and inspection services related to the Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project, CIP No. 18-01, Phase 2C.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton is committed to improving the overall quality and longevity of its roadway network by increasing its Pavement Condition Index (PCI) as outlined in the Pavement Management Plan adopted on September 3, 2024. The Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Program targets streets with the greatest need through proactive maintenance and rehabilitation.

On July 2, 2025, the Public Works Engineering Department (“Department”) advertised for construction services for Phase 2C of the program. On September 2, 2025, the City Council awarded the construction contract to Palp, Inc. dba Excel Paving. An essential component of successful delivery is construction management and inspection services to ensure compliance with technical specifications, schedule, and budget.

On July 31, 2025, the City received ten (10) proposals for construction management services.

Staff reviewed and ranked each proposal based on responsiveness, qualifications, relevant experience, staffing, and cost. The top three firms were:

Rank Firm Location Amount
1 JMD City of Industry, CA $478,366.49
2 Z&K Consultants Riverside, CA $499,008.00
3 Fountainhead Consulting Fontana, CA $474,728.00

5.5.5.5.5.5. Staff Report – Resolution Authorizing Agreement with Fountainhead Consulting Corporation Construction Management/Inspection Services
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project (CIP No. 18-01), Phase 2C October 7, 2025, Page 2 of 3
Although JMD and Z&K Consultants were highly qualified, Fountainhead Consulting Corporation was determined to be the most responsive firm with the lowest proposed fee.

Scope of Services
The scope of work for construction management and inspection services includes, but is not limited to:
Conducting pre-construction meetings and contractor coordination. Implementing project controls, including RFIs, submittals, cost tracking, and scheduling. Reviewing and monitoring contractor traffic control and safety programs. Inspecting work for compliance with plans, specifications, and permit requirements. Monitoring prevailing wage compliance and labor documentation. Managing and negotiating change orders, progress payments, and project documentation.
Preparing monthly status reports, daily inspection reports, and final project close-out. Providing public outreach, environmental compliance monitoring, and as-built documentation.

Consultant Selection Process
The Request for Proposals (RFP) required firms to submit qualifications and scope of services separately from their fee proposal. A review committee comprised of Public Works Engineering and Community Development staff evaluated each firm using a Qualifications-Based Selection (QBS) process. Criteria included completeness of proposal, technical understanding, experience with similar projects, qualifications of assigned personnel, resource availability, and schedule. Only after ranking the most qualified firms did the committee review fees to ensure cost competitiveness.

After careful consideration, Fountainhead Consulting Corporation was determined to be the most qualified and cost-effective choice to provide construction management and inspection services for the following reasons:
Proven track record of delivering similar pavement rehabilitation and infrastructure projects for Los Angeles County, Caltrans, and numerous local cities. Immediate availability of specialized staff with expertise in roadway, drainage, ADA compliance, and labor compliance monitoring.
Strong local presence, with inspectors and engineers who have over 75 years of combined experience in public works construction management. Demonstrated ability to deliver projects on time and within budget through clear communication and proactive issue resolutions.
Certified as a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE), Certificate No. 41892, and as a Small Business Enterprise (SBE), Certificate No. 1798909, supporting the City’s goals of fostering diversity and inclusion in contracting.

Staff Report – Resolution Authorizing Agreement with Fountainhead Consulting Corporation Construction Management/Inspection Services
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project (CIP No. 18-01), Phase 2C October 7, 2025, Page 3 of 3

STATEMENT OF ISSUE
City staff has determined that professional construction management and inspection services are necessary to ensure the successful delivery of Phase 2C of the Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project. The Public Works Engineering Department does not have sufficient internal staff resources to perform this level of oversight on a daily basis.

Council authorization is required to enter into a professional services agreement with Fountainhead Consulting Corporation and establish a purchase order in the amount of $474,728.

ALTERNATIVE
The City Council may choose another vendor to provide construction management services or direct staff to re-advertise the RFP. However, this is not recommended as it would delay the start of construction and risk higher costs.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $474,728 are available in the Public Works Engineering Department’s FY 2025-2026 budget, Account No. 3031-710-000-4330 (MTA Bond Funds).

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the City Manager to:

1. Execute a professional services agreement with Fountainhead Consulting Corporation in the amount of $474,728, a certified DBE (No. 41892) and SBE (No. 1798909) firm; and

2. Establish a purchase order in the same amount for construction management and inspection services under the Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project, CIP No. 18-01, Phase 2C.

APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY

Proposal to City of Compton
Public Works Engineering Department
Construction Management & Inspection Services for
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) Page | 33
C. APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
Project Understanding
We understand the City's project goals involve assisting their staff members with the Construction Management and Inspection services for the Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Services Project – Phase 2C for several streets within Compton. The project will include cold milling, ARHM pavement, AC base course, aggregate base, full depth AC slot pavement, curb and gutters, sidewalks, cross gutter, alley intersection, driveway approach, curb ramps, signing, striping, markings, and pavement legends, speed hump, traffic signal loop, adjust to grade existing sewer manhole, water valve, water meter, and storm drain manhole, and such other items or details required by the plans and specification, including removal of materials, hole preparation, and all materials, tools, and equipment necessary for the work. Milling is expected to remove 2 to 4 inches of material. Subgrade or base material is to be compacted to 90% before installation of new pavement. The project is to be completed in 180 working days and the Engineer’s Estimate is approximately $7.9 Million.

The Streets in Phase 2C include:

Alameda Street (East & West) – City Limit North to City Limit South Walnut Street – Central Avenue to Acacia Court
Walnut Parkway – Cul De Sac to Cul De Sac
Walnut Park Drive – Walnut Parkway to Walnut Street
We partner with the City to provide a quality project built to meet specifications and expectations, while staying on schedule and within budget. Our methodology to accomplish these goals is to provide the right staff who are qualified to handle the technical and administrative challenges the project may face. We take our lead from the City’s designated project manager as we perform the CM tasks outlined in the scope of services in the RFP. We are present through all steps of the project from pre-construction, construction, and post construction.

Our philosophy is to be proactive and to mitigate problems before they arise, such as monitoring the contractors and knowing the plans, specifications, permits and agreements as early as possible, while also being vigilant of site conditions and contractor operations.

Fountainhead understands the technical challenges that this project may face, and by reviewing the project plans, visiting the site, we have gained an understanding of the project and prepared a specific approach tailored to the needs of the City. Our proposed team has the experience and expertise to address project needs, challenges, goals, and objectives within the scope of services. We acknowledge and understand the scope of services required during the pre- construction, construction and postconstruction phases of the project and we are available to mobilize upon request.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Pre-Construction
The pre-construction phase is critical to project success and to engaging our team’s overall concept of “no surprises” resulting from a failure to communicate project information. Our team begins meeting with the City to review, implement and agree on detailed procedures, expectations, and lines of communication as well as to create an environment where the City Construction Manager team becomes integrated into a single cohesive force for managing the construction contractor. We begin with a kick-off meeting so project stakeholders the designer, and other stakeholders can identify points of contact with consultant and City staff. We also provide a detailed schedule of activities and be ready to discuss major project issues (ROW/utility/ environmental /phasing and staging) summarized in the Early Action Notification Letter from the RE. A document exchange generally occurs currently, which assist with the readiness review. Constructability Review To assist the City in implementing its goals, the Fountainhead team review the contract documents (PS&E) prior to advertisement for constructability and biddability. Our proven approach includes, but is not limited to:
• Visiting the project site to check the site conditions against the site plans for conflicts, including utilities that need to be relocated.
• Determining if the site accommodates the contract staging requirements. • Reviewing the site to determine the impacts to the adjacent residents and newly developed businesses. • Coordinating with and making sure that necessary plan check review results are communicated and incorporated.
• Reviewing notes on the plans.
• Checking conflicts between design disciplines.
• Verifying contract unit prices and seeing that they are clearly defined in the contract documents and identifying if constraints and permit requirements are identified and easily understood by the Contractor. • Identified discrepancies, because of our review, are brought to the attention of the City Project Manager and Design Engineer.
• Determining if the various permits for all utility requirements are met.

Contract Bidding Support
If not already completed, the Fountainhead team can administer and advertise for construction bids and attend the bid opening. We can assist the City in preparing and conducting a pre-bid meeting to attract a broad array of bidders and assist those bidders in understanding the scope of work, terms and conditions of the contract, schedule constraints, permit requirements, and other planned improvements within the project vicinity.

A list of prospective bidders is established, and bidder's inquiries are gathered and logged with responses disseminated to all those participating. The Fountainhead team coordinates with the City's Design Consultant in responding to any design inquiries that the prospective bidders may have. Upon submittal of the bids, the Fountainhead team assist the City in reviewing the bids and evaluating the bid results.

The review involves making sure that the bids comply with the terms and conditions of the contract and that the bidders are deemed responsive bidders. After reviewing all the responsive bids, the Fountainhead team

construction conference with all project parties and stakeholders to reiterate communication protocols, define the roles and responsibilities for all stakeholders and to highlight important issues and key factors necessary to make this project a success. Some of the major issues that must be addressed at the earliest time are the utilities relocations, right of way, long lead items and the traffic management plan (TMP).

At the meeting, Javier reviews the contract, pertinent sections of the plans as well as specifications and permits to help coordinate with the City, contractors, and stakeholders in attendance at the meeting. Our team also record the meeting minutes and distribute to all parties. We take photos and video of the project site and surrounding streets including haul routes and staging areas prior to the start of construction and NTP. Javier and the team review and approve the contractors’ early submittals including SWPPP, critical path method (CPM), safety, notification of Dispute Resolution Advisors (DRAs) or Dispute Resolution Board (DRB), notices of material to be used, demolition, and other required early submittals.

Construction Phase
Upon the contractor’s notice to proceed, the Fountainhead team verify the contractor has complied with all the permits, and requirements necessary to begin the project. Certain early documents require review, such as the contractor’s Required Submittal List and the Baseline Schedule. The required submittal list and the preliminary baseline schedule (using the latest version of Primavera P6) are reviewed to determine if there are any obvious missing activities and check for any logic issues that are in error, which could affect the subsequent Baseline Schedule.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
Javier assist the City in filing all Notice of Intent (NOI) and Notice of Termination (NOT) for the project on the California State Water Resources Control Board S.M.A.R.T.S. website, as well as preparing and helping to file the required annual reports. Javier will review and comment on the Contractor’s SWPPP document to ensure compliance with the Statewide General Permit.

Our Environmental Compliance / Inspector, Mejia Tsutsui, QSD/QSP reviews installation and maintenance of BMPs,
prepare weekly stormwater inspection reports, ensure testing – if required– is completed and ensure compliance with the SWPPP document. Upon the contractor’s notice to proceed, the Fountainhead team verifies the contractor has complied with all requirements necessary to begin the project and that all permits are in order. We obtain copies of all relevant project permits and ensure project compliance throughout the life of the project including environmental permits, resource agency permits, and City issued permits. Javier works with the contractor to ensure necessary construction permits are in place, including WDID, Conditions and Standards where applicable.

Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) Safety
The Fountainhead team reviews the Contractor’s Safety Plan and Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) for compliance with Cal OSHA, and the City Safety Program requirements. While the Contractor has sole responsibility for compliance with safety requirements, we monitor the Contractor’s compliance during construction activities and any reports generated through the natural progression of the project. Any observation of deficiencies in safe practices result in a request for immediate remediation and a report to the City and the contractor. Special emphasis is placed on excavations, rebar protection, ladder installations, and stabilized construction access points. Additionally, our team monitor and enforce debris handling and disposal plans, hazardous materials communication plans, emergency action plans, job hazard analysis, incident and inquiry reports and monthly safety reports. We conduct weekly tailgate safety meetings and attend the Contractor’s scheduled safety meetings. Our efforts focus on prevention to make sure we maintain a safe work site for the contractor, subcontractors, inspectors, field personnel, visiting City staff, and the public at large.

Fountainhead’s commitment
to total safety excellence
throughout all projects was
instituted by establishing
safety as a core value. To
achieve Fountainhead’s
goal of zero incidents, all employees are required to actively participate in the Fountainhead’s Safety Training Program conducted through its Web- based program. In addition, the Fountainhead Team developed a Code of Safe Practices specific to projects, and it covers all aspects of project safety, including personal protective equipment (PPE) and work in and around traffic. All project personnel are required to read and sign off on the Code of Safe Practices. Biweekly safety tailgate meetings are conducted in accordance with California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) regulations, and meeting minutes are kept on file.

Weekly / Monthly Project Progress Meetings and Reports
During the construction stage, Javier holds weekly construction progress meetings attended by the Contractor, City, County, UPRR, relevant utility companies, and others. In these meetings, an agenda is submitted which includes items the City and Contractor would like to discuss. Items that are not resolved from the agenda is carried on to the next meeting. We review the project status, the look-ahead schedule including long lead items, outstanding RFIs, submittals, and any other issues or concerns. Meeting minutes are prepared and distributed, requesting either the concurrence of those who attended, or suggested corrections to the minutes. Afterwards, the minutes are filed as either approved or amended.

We hold a monthly meeting with the City to discuss the monthly project. The goal is to keep all stakeholders informed of progress, to mitigate issues before they arise, and to ensure that the project lands within the designated time frame. Javier prepares the monthly project status report that summarizes the Project's overall progress against the projected project plan. The goal of a project status report is to keep all stakeholders informed of progress, to mitigate issues before they Safety
Safety is at the top of our culture as
captured by our “Beyond Zero”
philosophy that believes all incidents and
accidents are avoidable. Our inspection
team monitors site activities continually
to confirm conformance to the
Contactor’s safety plan, City of Hesperia,
SBCTA and Caltrans Safety Programs,
and all appliable OSHA standards.

Fountainhead’s Safety Program includes,
but is not limited to:
• Pedestrian Safety
• Safety Tailgate Meetings
• Site Specific Safety
• Hazardous Assessment Safety
Action Plan (HASAP)
• SPAs and SORs
• Field Personnel Training

The report summary includes updates to the Key Milestones Table, Progress and Deviations from Plan, Risk Register, Financial Status, Change Request History, etc.

Submittal Management Review
Fountainhead is in the habit of turning around submittals, especially those on the critical path, within a few days, if possible. This serves two purposes: first, it gives the City, County-owned-float for the CPM schedule, which may be used later or to mitigate potential days that would be allowed to the Contractor for a contract change order; second, it helps finish the project early.

Our database tracking is used to log and manage all submittals such as shop drawings, SWPPP, CPM baseline and updates, permits, and demo plans. Our P6 approach also keeps the contractor informed that a submittal is soon to be due and is expected. Fountainhead’s pre-developed list of required submittals provides early notifications.

Request for Information Management Review
RFIs are evaluated to determine if a response from the field team is possible. When the RFI has no impact to schedule, budget, or quality, the RFI is tracked in our system so responses are available for team review as soon as possible. Responses are expedited to avoid Contractor delays. To keep RFIs moving towards resolution, a status review is performed in our weekly job site meeting. Resolution of RFIs by the field staff helps keep projects within budget and schedule. Timely submittal processing is essential in assisting the Contractor in keeping on schedule.

This allows early acquisition of materials and other offsite procurements, so materials are available when required.

We develop a list of required submittals early, and regularly compare our list to that of the Contractor to make sure all items are identified with anticipated delivery/completion dates denoted on our schedule. A distribution list is used to verify key staff have reviewed and accepted key submittals. Our database is used to log and manage the shop drawings and sample/submittal process, allowing review of submittal status during the weekly progress meeting.

Schedule Control
Schedule control is a critical on-going task which begins with the baseline schedule. Our team utilize several tools for schedule control as described herein.
• Base-Line Schedule Review: Our CPM Scheduler, Chetan Shah reviews the contractor’s initial baseline schedule to make sure it is reasonable, practical, and includes a comprehensive plan for accomplishing the work. Chetan, and Javier, verify whether the contractor has provided the appropriate schedule to interface with other activities, such as submittal reviews, material deliveries, traffic management, and agency reviews. If the initial submittal is not acceptable, we work with the contractor to develop a schedule that is achievable and meets contract requirements.

Proposal to City of Compton
Public Works Engineering Department
Construction Management & Inspection Services for
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) • Monthly Schedule Updates: Chetan review the contractor’s schedule updates for accuracy and run claim digger reports to compare with previous approved schedule update and verify the schedule is not being manipulated. We run reports based on the monthly update that indicate activities that have not started by their early start date, allowing us to discuss methods of recovering lost days.3-Week Look Ahead Schedule: Chetan track the contractor's progress using the start and finish dates shown on the 3-week look-ahead schedule submitted by the contractor each week and compare
with the monthly schedule update. The actual dates on
the 3-week look head schedule are verified against
inspector diaries. Any discrepancies in start and finish dates between the3-week look-ahead schedule,
monthly schedule updates, and inspector diaries are
discussed during monthly schedule review meetings
with a strategy to manage the project within contract
duration.
• Parallel / Shadow Schedule: Chetan maintains an
as-built (parallel) schedule using the most accurate as- built information provided through monthly schedule updates and inspector diaries. In addition, Chetan incorporates RFIs, job memos, notice of non-compliance, CCOs, equipment breakdowns, material shortages, and other issues that could cause delays in completing an activity. Chetan’s parallel schedule was used on I-215 Segments 1and 2 for claims mitigation, merit of time extensions, what-if analysis, and as final as-built schedule submittal to Caltrans Oversight to expedite project closeout. • Time Impact Analysis: CCOs may have an impact on the schedule’s critical path. Should impacts occur, the contractor is required to submit a time impact analysis (TIA) immediately in accordance with the special provisions. Chetan immediately analyzes the TIA for accuracy and confirms the delay is not concurrent with other critical path activities. If the TIA is found to be credible a recommendation for time extension is made.

• Document Management System: Fountainhead personnel provide an electronic, cloud- based Construction Management System (CMS), or we can use an Oracle/Primavera system that tracks and analyzes the schedule, budget, cost-to-date, and change order information for Javier Soto.

Document Control
Our Nicole Salem, establishes and maintains a filing
system, in hard and electronic copy using Caltrans
Construction Manual as guidelines to make sure
there is compliance with state funding requirements
for this project. On a weekly basis, Nicole uploads
the electronic data documentation to the City's
Projects Portal. Submittals and RFI logs are
developed and maintained, and all RFIs and
submittals are logged and tracked in accordance with
when it was received and returned to the Contractor
for disposition and response status. Fountainhead
recommends the use of electronic document
control software such as “Procore” to assist with
managing submittals, RFI’s and correspondence.

Proposal to City of Compton
Public Works Engineering Department
Construction Management & Inspection Services for
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) Communications and Correspondence
We prepare a communication protocol as approved by the City. Fountainhead logs all communication, provide timely responses as stated by the communication protocol, seek approval from the City as appropriate, certify contract compliance, and communicate all submittals. Typically, such correspondence is logged in Category 5 of the Caltrans Filing System. All correspondence from and to the Contractor and others are filed electronically in CMS and made available anytime for review by the City.

Progress Reporting and Daily Reports
The Fountainhead team provide the City with project status reports on a weekly and monthly basis and as requested by the City. The weekly reports provide a summary of the activities completed the previous week, ongoing activities for the current week and scheduled activities for the following week. This report also includes any field conflicts and issues that may have arisen during the week. The monthly construction management reports describe the status of the project’s budget, schedule, submittals, change orders, claims in process and current and anticipated work progress. Project inspectors are required to complete daily inspector reports (DIRs) within a 24-hour period of witnessing the work performed. These DIRs include field activities; which are tracked by contract bid item, labor, and equipment; a narrative of the work; and related photographs. Each report is signed by the inspectors and then reviewed and signed and reviewed by the Construction Manager. Javier and inspector(s) meet with the contractor daily to seek out issues and help resolve them. All issues are tracked through our Oracle / Primavera project controls system (or other system specified by the City). Retrieving project documents related to a specific issue are critical to keeping the City informed. All concerns are evaluated and resolved at the lowest level possible to help minimize claims.

These issues become the
backbone of our weekly job site
construction meeting. The
Fountainhead team will utilize
Drone Aerial Photography as a
means of keeping a visual record
of the project.

Responsibilities of the Inspector
The inspector’s primary responsibility is to make sure that permanent structures are constructed in accordance with project plans and specifications and to ensure that the operations and/or products meet the quality standard. Our qualified inspector has a thorough knowledge of
specifications and exercise good judgment. The
inspectors keep a detailed diary of daily observations, noting particularly all warnings and instructions given to the contractor. The inspector maintains continual
communication with the contractor and resolve issues
before they become problems. anticipated delivery.

Timely submittal processing is critical to make sure all requirements are met on time and without delay. This
enables the contractor to procure materials and schedule the work accordingly without any delay.

Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) Inspector’s Equipment & Training Program
All Fountainhead staff members are selected based on
their qualifications related to the contract. We realize that ongoing education and training are needed to keep
abreast of continual changes in technology. Therefore,
Fountainhead has in-house technical training classes to cover new techniques and processes. These classes
are held at various office locations, on-line, virtual
learning courses, after work, and/or on Saturday
mornings.

Fountainhead team members and personnel are fully
equipped with all equipment and tools needed and
maintained to perform their duties and responsibilities:

Review Certified Payroll
Nicole Salem, Labor Compliance / Office Engineer will
assist in obtaining certified payrolls and labor
compliance forms and records from the contractor and
subcontractors, all of which comply with California Labor Board rules and DIR prevailing wage regulations. We
also review the contractor’s compliance program and
scope of work for each subcontractor, monitor job
progress and diligently verify compliance. Project
Changes and Construction Change Order Management
Requested changes must be reviewed and evaluated
for merit. Our review also assesses the impacts to
project schedule and budget (independent cost
estimates or [ICEs]) and we advise the City with a
recommendation of findings. On conceptual approval as
to merit, we negotiate these changes with the Contractor and submit these negotiated change requests to the city for concurrence approval. Recommendations regarding change order cost and schedule impacts are based on independent cost estimates developed concurrently with the Contractor’s request and include a record of negotiations. This may also include a schedule fragment analysis using Primavera P6 to manage progress recovery associated with the requested change.

Cost Control
The two major items under Cost Control Procedures
are Construction Contract Cost Control and
Construction Management Cost Control.

Construction Contract Cost Control: The CM
team manages, maintains, and delivers auditable,
reliable records and budget forecasts throughout the
entire project duration from NTP to final acceptance.

Each of the stakeholders with a financial interest in the project are watching the developments closely.

Working with the City, we develop and provide a
monthly progress report on the financial health of the
project. This monthly report contains the current budget and schedule status and be furnished to the City monthly.

Public Works Engineering Department
Construction Management & Inspection Services for
Annual Residential Street Rehabilitation Project – CIP# 18-01 (Phase 2C) by the field team in the monthly progress pay estimates. Change orders, both actual and anticipated, must also be accurately tracked. This data is feed the overall budget review of the project each month that accounts for the cumulative progress payments, expenditure forecasts and anticipated total project cost.

Drilling down to managing costs and budget, project issues not identified in the plans are where the budget and expenditure changes occur. Issue resolution are every team member’s responsibility, particularly the inspectors in the field, as this is the least expensive place to solve a problem. This proactive mind-set assists in keeping the project within budget and schedule because problems are not hidden, and impacts can be anticipated in advance. Each progress payment is linked to the previous payment, and we verify that the Contractor only receives payment for pay items or change order extra work bills to which the Contractor is entitled.

Likewise, we assist the City in the review of monthly certified payrolls, DBE reports and EEO records to monitor labor compliance.

Construction Management Cost Control: The ultimate responsibility for our services cost control rests with our Construction Manager, Javier Soto. This are accomplished by resource loading of the draft construction schedules. Our service cost is outlined and monitored on a bi-weekly basis. Timesheets and field expenses are collected every week. Activity reports, costs and any deviation reports are generated for the City’s review, every four weeks or as needed. Fountainhead’s approach is to avoid parking staff on the project.

Payment Recommendations
Javier Soto, and the project inspectors are independently verifying the Contractor progress against schedule and budgeted work. In some instances, this includes theoretical calculation of quantities as well as a direct field measurement of the contract item work to support an auditable monthly partial progress payment authorization. Over- payment based on future estimates of work is not allowed. Payments are traceable to a checked source document field measured or calculated on quantity sheets that reflect completed work.

Traffic Control and Signal Timing
Our Team has considerable experience with all types of traffic control processes, full / partial road closures, streets, detours, night closures and traffic control. The inspectors work closely in performing traffic control inspections and work not be allowed to begin until and unless the closure conforms to the approved Traffic Control Plan. Our team members are familiar with WATCH & MUTCD manuals and verify that the Contractor implements the requirements in his traffic control plans.

Construction Testing & Quality Assurance Program (QAP)
We manage the required soils and materials testing through our Materials Testing subconsultant inspections to determine materials incorporated into the project are procured, installed, and tested, as well as modified (if necessary). We make sure conformance to the contract documents and applicable codes, standards, procedures, and processes including ASTM and Caltrans. Sampling and testing activities are conducted in accordance with applicable testing guidelines. Our Team maintains testing summaries to confirm that all unacceptable work is recorded and corrected prior to the contractor placing new work on non- conforming work.

Final Inspection / Acceptance and Punch-List Assistance Upon completion of work by the Contractor, the Fountainhead team walk the project to verify that all items of work have been completed as required by the contract documents. A punch list of outstanding items is developed and provided to the Contractor for addressing.

After the Contractor has completed all the items on the punch list, a final walkthrough of the project site is conducted. If a portion of the project is completed, and the City would like to make use of that portion, then the Fountainhead Team conduct a walk-through and create a punch list to accept only that portion of the work. If the Fountainhead Team is satisfied that all the items on the punch list have been addressed, then Fountainhead recommend final
acceptance by the City and payment to the Contractor.

Contract Closeout
Upon completion of the work and after all items on the punch list have been addressed, the Fountainhead team recommend acceptance of the project by the City, and that formally relieve the Contractor of any further responsibility for the completion of project. The warranty responsibilities remain as required. The project close-out phase includes. (1) Resolving any outstanding claims and providing supporting information, (2) Recommending to the City the final payment to the Contractor, (3) Making sure that all liens on the project by the Contractor or Subcontractors have been released, and (4) archiving all project records. The Fountainhead team prepare project close-out reports per the Caltrans Construction Manual, City requirements and LAPM to meet all funding requirements. Project Close- out also deal with the final details of the project and provide a normal ending of all procedures, including the delivery of the final product. Project close-out is an important phase of the contract and must be performed as specified. This verify that the project is 100% complete. In closing project files, the Fountainhead team bring records up to date and make sure that all original documents are in the project files and at one location.

Record Keeping and As-Built Plans
In addition to construction inspection, our inspectors are also responsible for maintaining an accurate and complete record of work that is being performed by
contractors. Project records and reports
are necessary to determine that contract
requirements have been met so that
payments can be made to the contractor.

Project records are kept current,
complete, accurate, and are submitted on
time.

It is critical that the inspector keep a
written diary of the activities that take
place in the field. The diary contains
information concerning the work being
inspected, including unusual incidents and
important conversations. This information may become very critical in case of legal action for litigation involving construction claims or job failure.

Final Project Report
Fountainhead prepares a final report in accordance with Chapter 17 of LAPM for State federally funded projects. We provide the City with one electronic copy, and one hard copy of final report.

Final Payment, Final Report of Expenditure Checklist
Fountainhead provides the proposed final estimates to the City, along with all required attachments in Final expenditure of each bid items in accordance with Chapter 17 of LAPM including:
• Final expenditure of each bid items
• Remaining funds
• Change order expenditures

Internal Quality Control Program
Fountainhead has an internal quality control program that is implemented on all construction projects. Javier is
responsible for implementing this plan. Quality control (QC) guidelines have been standardized into our Construction Management Manual and construction documentation which
forms the basis for developing a project specific quality assurance plan. Fountainhead team members are well
familiar with various contract and inspection
documentation forms and have been utilizing them on
construction projects for years.

The overall Quality Control activity is continuously monitored by Javier monthly and reviewed quarterly during an
independent site review conducted by Fountainhead’s Project Director, Victor Valdovinos. Our internal QA/QC process is simple and does not require additional time demands from the Client. Routinely, our Resident Engineer conducts independent reviews of the project records for their adherence to the Client’s policies and procedures.

Our team are involved with labor compliance from the start of the project and our Labor Compliance Team members provide the following services:
• Attend preconstruction meetings informing contractors and subcontractors of all labor compliance laws and provisions that need to be followed throughout the project. Have the contractor and subcontractors acknowledge and sign a checklist that informs them of all requirements. • On a weekly basis, the Labor Compliance Officer
(LCO) collects, monitors, and analyzes certified
payrolls to ensure the contractor is in compliance with DIR requirements, including the new SB-854 laws.
• The LCO also confirms that Equal Employment
Opportunity (EEO) requirements are being met.
• Depending on the type of funding for a project, there is specific documentation that needs to be obtained
from the contractor and submitted. The LCO is
responsible for verifying that the contractor complies
with all these requirements. Once we receive certified payrolls, the LCO crosschecks certified payrolls with the inspector’s daily to confirm that the employee is being paid for the correct number of hours. If we find a discrepancy in prevailing wage rate, hours or classifications, the contractor is notified with a “Notice of Temporary Withholding.” If needed, restitution is calculated to show an underpayment. A deduction is taken until all correct documentation is received and checked.
• The LCO conducts field employee interviews and source document audits, as necessary. Apprentices are tracked throughout the project. If federal reimbursement is given, the LCO maintains records and calculations to document the amount to be paid. All these documents are filed in a category that would be the labor compliance file for the Department. The LCO maintains these files until project closeout.

SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

ACCEPTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE CITYWIDE ROAD REPAIR

SERVICES PROJECT, PHASE VIII AS COMPLETE, DIRECTING STAFF

TO FILE THE NOTICE OF COMPLETION WITH THE LOS ANGELES
COUNTY RECORDER’S OFFICE, AND AUTHORIZING THE RELEASE
OF THE CONTRACTOR’S RETENTION ($118,500.55).

SUMMARY
This staff report recommends that the City Council:

1. Accept the completion of the Citywide Road Repair Services Project, Phase VIII; and

2. Direct staff to file the Notice of Completion with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s Office; and

3. Authorize the release of the contractor’s retention in the amount of $118,500.55.

BACKGROUND
The City of Compton is committed to maintaining and improving its roadway infrastructure through the implementation of its Pavement Management Plan, adopted by the City Council on September 3, 2024. The plan emphasizes strategic investment, proactive maintenance, and targeted rehabilitation to increase the City’s Pavement Condition Index (PCI), enhance roadway safety, and extend pavement life.

On September 24, 2024, pursuant to Resolution No. 26,124, City Council authorized the City Manager to execute a construction contract and establish a purchase order with Hardy & Harper, Inc. for the Citywide Road Repair Services Project, Phase VIII, in the amount of $2,154,900.

The project scope consisted primarily of pavement rehabilitation through grind-and- overlay methods at distressed roadway locations, along with related work in accordance with the contract documents.

During construction, Hardy & Harper submitted several change order requests to address unforeseen conditions and additional City-requested improvements. On July 8, 2025, pursuant to Resolution No. 26,277, the City Council authorized a contract amendment in the amount of $242,288.30 to cover these additional items, which included:

2. File the Notice of Completion with the Los Angeles County Recorder’s Office; and

There is no additional fiscal impact. The retention amount represents funds previously withheld from progress payments and is included within the approved project budget.

ALTERNATIVE
No alternative action is recommended. The contractor has fulfilled all contractual obligations, and acceptance of the project is required to close out the contract.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BRYAN K. SPRAGG, DIRECTOR OF RECREATION
SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COMPTON

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO AMEND THE FISCAL YEAR
2025–2026 BUDGET FOR THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT IN THE
AMOUNT OF $10,000 FOR KELLY PARK IMPROVEMENTS,

EQUIPMENT, AND SUPPLIES

SUMMARY
The Recreation Department received a $10,000 donation from Delta Airlines for the 2024 Kelly Park Kaboom Playground Project. The donation was received on October 10, 2024.

However, the funds were not expended at all by the end of the 2024/2025 fiscal year.

Consequently, the funds fell to the fund balance on June 30, 2025. Staff would like to utilize the donation for its intended use and are requesting that the funds be added to the 2025/2026 fiscal year's budget so that the funds can be expended as specified in the donation statement's intended use at Kelly Park.

BACKGROUND
In October 2024, the Recreation Department received a generous $10,000 donation from Delta Airlines to support the 2024 Kelly Park Kaboom Playground Project. This donation was intended to enhance the recreational facilities at Kelly Park, providing a safe and enjoyable environment for the community. The intended use of these funds included park programs and supplies. Prior to the replacement, Kelly Park's playground was in poor condition, highlighting the need for this project. Despite the receipt of these funds on October 10, 2024, the department was unable to expend the donation by the end of the 2024/2025 fiscal year. As a result, the unspent funds fell to the fund balance on June 30, 2025.

To ensure that the donation is utilized as intended, staff are requesting that the $10,000 be added to the 2025/2026 fiscal year's budget. This adjustment will allow the funds to be expended in accordance with the specific purposes outlined in the donation statement, thereby fulfilling Delta Airlines' generous contribution to the Kelly Park Kaboom Playground Project. The new playground and the donation will significantly benefit the community by providing improved recreational facilities and programs.

8.8. Staff Report, FY 25-26 Budget Amendment - Kelly Park October 7, 2025

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The Recreation Department received a $10,000 donation from Delta Airlines in October 2024, intended for the 2024 Kelly Park Kaboom Playground Project. The funds were designated to improve the playground, which was in poor condition, and to support park programs and supplies. However, the donation was not expended by the end of the 2024/2025 fiscal year, resulting in the funds falling to the fund balance on June 30, 2025.

To ensure that the donation is utilized for its intended purpose, it is necessary to transfer the $10,000 from the fund balance to the 2025/2026 fiscal year's budget. This transfer will allow the Recreation Department to proceed with the planned improvements and programs at Kelly Park, thereby benefiting the community.

FISCAL IMPACT
The re-appropriation of the $10,000 donation from Delta Airlines from the fund balance to the 2025/2026 fiscal year's budget will have a positive fiscal impact on the Recreation Department. This re-appropriation will not require additional funding from the city's general fund, as it utilizes existing donated funds. The allocation of these funds will enable the department to proceed with the planned improvements and programs at Kelly Park, thereby enhancing the recreational facilities and services available to the community without incurring additional costs. Funds are available in Fund Balance fund No. 5300.

Staff requests to appropriate these funds into the 2025/2026 fiscal year in Account No. 5300-840-000-4238 Rec Fund Balance.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommend that the City Council authorize the City Manager to re-appropriate the $10,000 donation from Delta Airlines, currently held in Fund Balance, originally from 5300-840-039-3982, to the 2025/2026 fiscal year's budget, to Account No. 5300-840-000- 4238. This appropriation will allow the Recreation Department to utilize the funds for the intended improvements and programs at Kelly Park, as specified in the donation statement.

The fuel pricing quotations referenced reflect verified current market rates for the 2025 calendar year, as provided by suppliers. No historical pricing data has been utilized or factored into any calculations.

BACKGROUND
The Fleet Operations Division is responsible for managing the City’s mechanics shop and overseeing field personnel. The Fleet Maintenance Division collaborates with departments to ensure vehicle and equipment readiness by performing maintenance and repairs on vehicles and equipment used by City staff.

The Fleet Operations - Fuel Division oversees the acquisition of unleaded and diesel fuel for citywide use. This division manages fuel deliveries to City sites, conducts daily inspections of fueling stations to ensure compliance with local, state and federal reporting requirements, and is responsible for monitoring, maintaining and repairing fuel sites.

Due to the unpredictable nature of fuel prices and availability in recent fiscal years, the Public Works Street Maintenance Department (Department) is requesting the flexibility to purchase fuel from multiple vendors throughout the fiscal year. To obtain the most competitive pricing, the Department seeks authorization to procure fuel at the lowest per- gallon cost from three providers: Jankovich Company, Dion and Sons, Inc. and Wood Oil Company – each of whom supplies fuel to commercial and local government fueling stations.
