Subject: Constituent Comment for August 12, 2025 meeting Hi there Joelle:

While I know the council does not meet for a few more weeks, I want this written comment submitted to them for that meeting. This is for non-agenda items. Here is the comment:

Dear City Council Members:

I would like to request that all of you immediately terminate Valerie Barone as City Manager. She has been in this post for 14 plus years and appears to have accomplished minimal work in that timeframe. I have personally dealt with Ms. Barone and found her to be rude, unprofessional and snarky. She tends to also display this behavior, in my view, when I watch council meetings, not to mention she is unnecessarily micromanaging towards the city council. On numerous occasions has she cited CA Civil Code to prohibit progress on an initiative and most, if not, all of those interpretations have been INCORRECT. She needs to realize she is NOT a lawyer and lacks qualifications to analyze Civll Code. The council can defer to the City Attorney if they need a PROPER interpretation. I work as a paralegal by trade and even I am forbidden from interpreting statutory law despite how I am more qualified to do it than Ms. Barone. On top of the aforementioned, she has now presided over a significant amount of lawsuits against Concord Police, one of which involves four women officers making serious allegations of sexual harassment and gender discrimination in the pre and post-Me Too era. An involved city manager works to minimize litigation. Perhaps if Ms. Barone spent less time trying to master Civil Code and more so running a tighter ship at all agencies, including the police department, the City would be in superior shape.

Speaking of that police department, a few years ago, I approached a city councilmember (I will not say which one) about a severe trauma that one of their officers inflicted on me years ago. The councilperson agreed that this needed to be dealt with due to the ramifications (not just the legal violations involved but my suffering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder for several years as a result) either by Barone meeting with

2.a

the Chief to encourage terminating this particular officer (he was on the payroll at the time. He has since retired) and/or pursue department reforms. This councilperson instructed Ms. Barone to intervene and address it, which she refused to do. That is insubordination, period. If I were to do this to a supervising attorney at my job, I would be fired on the spot. The same ought to happen to Ms. Barone.

Thank you for your time.

-Jason Pfister

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT

Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact.

The City of Concord, situated 29 miles east of San Francisco within Contra Costa County, spans approximately 31 square miles. As of 2020, it has a population of 122,315 residents, making it the largest city in the county. The city experiences heavy traffic due to its strategic location, providing easy access to San Francisco, Napa Valley, Silicon Valley, and Sacramento. Concord's central position results in a significant volume of traffic on key arterial streets like Ygnacio Valley Road, Clayton Road, Willow Pass Road, Treat Boulevard, Monument Boulevard, and Concord Boulevard, with each experiencing over 50,000 vehicles daily.

The downtown area features a grid pattern of multi-lane streets, including some one-way thoroughfares, contributing to concentrated traffic. Collision data from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, highlights the top four collision factors: unsafe speed, improper turning violations, traffic signal violations, and driving under the influence.

The Police Department encourages officers to focus on enforcement measures targeting alcohol and speed- related collisions, as well as enhancing pedestrian and bicyclist safety. The gradual increase in staffing levels allows for more effective deployment, with the Traffic Bureau currently comprising six officers.

Analyzing crash data gathered from intersections, the City of Concord identifies "traffic safety problems" associated with unsafe speed, improper turning violations, traffic signal violations, and driving under the influence. The observed surge in hazardous driving behavior directly corresponds to a rise in injury and fatality collisions. Contributing factors include traffic congestion, lack of attentiveness to the road, disregard for others, and non-compliance with traffic laws.

To address these "traffic safety issues" in Concord, fundamental solutions involve deploying officers to areas with higher collision rates, outlined by statistical and data-driven enforcement. Additionally, targeted enforcement will be implemented to address the leading primary collision factors. The outlined objectives aim to facilitate the execution of at least one or more operations monthly, effectively tackling the identified "traffic safety issues."

Statistics affirm a direct correlation between focused enforcement/education and a lower collision rate in Concord. The implementation of a Strategic Traffic Enforcement Program is envisioned to further enhance the department's success in addressing issues related to the city’s top four Primary Collison Factors: unsafe speed, improper turning violations, traffic signal violations, and driving under the influence. In addition to promoting pedestrian and bicyclist safety and awareness.

Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats).

The review of Concord's 2022-2024 collision data reveals 3,803 collisions during this period. The city consistently ranks in the upper quartile for injury/fatal collisions related to drivers under the influence, unsafe speed, and pedestrian violations. There were 11 fatalities recorded from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2024, with 3 linked to drivers under the influence. The Concord Police Department remains proactive in combating impaired driving through DUI Saturation Patrols and ongoing enforcement, resulting in 896 DUI arrests during the mentioned period.

Impaired drivers accounted for 126 (10.52%) collisions in Concord, with 30.51% resulting in injury or death.

Steady efforts, including High Visual Enforcement (HVE) operations and DUI Checkpoints, aim to raise awareness and contribute to reducing DUI-related incidents.

Page 8 of 26 ends

7/7/2025 8:01:35 AM Page 4 of 21

Throughout 2024, collision data has revealed 1,355 collisions during this time frame. A large portion of these collisions occur within or very closely to many major intersections within the City of Concord. This is mainly due to unsafe speed, red light, improper turning, and pedestrian-related violations. These crashes typically occur during morning and evening commute hours. The Concord Police Department intends on taking proactive steps to address traffic safety issues, especially given the significant number of collisions reported in 2024. High-visibility enforcement will help deter dangerous driving behaviors and reduce the frequency of crashes. By focusing on unsafe speed, red light running, improper turns, and pedestrian-related violations— especially during peak commute hours—this effort should effectively target some of the primary causes of collisions.

The total number of Speed related crashes in 2022 was 263, in 2023 was 293, and in 2024 was 282. There has been a steady increase.

The total number of Red-light related crashes in 2022 was 132, in 2023 was 152, and in 2024 was 148. There has been a steady increase.

The total number of improper Turning movement related crashes in 2022 was 219, in 2023 was 237, and in 2024 was 271. There has been a steady increase.

The total number of DUI related crashes in 2022 was 119, in 2023 was 126, and in 2024 was 114. There has been a steady increase.

Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s).

The grant intends to target multiple populations most impacted by traffic-related issues in the City of Concord. Some of the target populations include pedestrians, cyclists, young drivers, elderly drivers, low- income neighborhoods, motorcycle riders, and criminal offenders who drive a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These target populations are often particularly vulnerable to traffic crashes, especially in areas with high foot traffic and busy roadways. Teens and young adults lack the experience and usually take risks when driving, like texting or talking on the phone, which often leading to traffic collisions. Elderly drivers often cause traffic collisions due to diminished reactions times, vision impairments, or other health concerns.

Low-income neighborhoods are often densely populated which leads to a higher amount of traffic collisions within major intersections and crosswalks. Motorcycle riders often participate in risky behavior such as speeding or weaving in and out of traffic leading to major injury collisions. Criminal offenders driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can lead to fatal traffic collisions for all of the involved parties. Everyone living, visiting, or commuting in the City of Concord can be a target population and are often affected by traffic related problems on a daily basis. The grant can provide necessary funding to implement high visibility enforcement, education among the target populations, and engineering around the roadways.

7/7/2025 8:01:35 AM Page 6 of 21

A. Phase 1 – Program Preparation (1st Quarter of Grant Year)  The department will develop operational plans to implement the “best practice” strategies outlined in the objectives section.
 Conduct all training needed to implement the program, in the first quarter.  Purchase all grant related supplies and materials to implement the program, in the first quarter.  Items with a unit cost of $5,000 more (including tax and shipping) must comply with Buy America.  In order to develop/maintain the “DUI BOLOs,” research will be conducted to identify the “worst of the worst” repeat DUI offenders with a suspended or revoked license as a result of DUI convictions. The DUI BOLO may include the driver’s name, last known address, DOB, description, current license status, and the number of times suspended or revoked for DUI. DUI BOLOs should be updated and distributed to traffic and patrol officers at least monthly.  Implementation of the STEP grant activities will be accomplished by deploying personnel at high crash locations.

Media Requirements
Issue a news release approved by the OTS PIO announcing the kick-off of the grant by December 31 and after the grant is signed and executed, but no sooner than October 1, the start of the grant year. The kick-off release must be approved by the OTS PIO. If you are unable to meet the December 31 deadline to issue a kick-off press release, communicate reasons to your OTS grant coordinator and OTS PIO.

B. Phase 2 – Program Operations (Throughout Grant Year) Media Requirements

The following requirements are for all grant-related activities:
 Send all media advisories, alerts, videos, graphics, artwork, posters, radio/PSA/video scripts, storyboards, digital and/or print educational materials for grant-related activities to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator. Optimum lead time would be 7 days before the scheduled release but at least 3 business days prior to the scheduled release date for review and approval is appreciated.
 Send all PowerPoint presentations, online presentations and trainings for grant-related activities to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator. Certified training courses are EXEMPT from the approval process.
 The OTS PIO is responsible for the approval of the design and content of materials. The agency understands OTS PIO approval is not authorizing approval of budget expenditure or cost. Any cost approvals must come from the OTS grant coordinator.  Pre-approval is not required when using any OTS-supplied template for media advisories, news releases, social media graphics, videos or posts, or any other OTS-supplied educational material.

However, copy the OTS PIO at [email protected] and your OTS grant coordinator when any material is distributed to the media and public, such as a news release, educational material, or link to social media post.
 If an OTS-supplied template, educational material, social media graphic, post or video is substantially changed, the changes shall be sent to the OTS PIO at [email protected] for approval and copy your OTS grant coordinator.
 News releases, social media posts and alerts on platforms such as NextDoor and Nixle reporting immediate and time-sensitive grant activities (e.g. enforcement operations, day of event highlights or announcements, event invites) are EXEMPT from the OTS PIO approval process.

The OTS PIO and your OTS grant coordinator should still be notified when the grant-related activity is happening (e.g. car seat checks, bicycle rodeos, community presentations, DUI checkpoints, etc.).
 Enforcement activities such as warrant and probation sweeps, court stings, etc. that are embargoed or could impact operations by publicizing in advance are EXEMPT from the PIO approval process. However, announcements and results of activities should still be copied to the OTS PIO at [email protected] and your OTS grant coordinator with the embargoed date and time or with “INTERNAL ONLY: DO NOT RELEASE” message in subject line of email.  Any earned or paid media campaigns for TV, radio, digital or social media that are part of a specific grant objective, using OTS grant funds, or designed and developed using contractual services by a subgrantee, requires prior approval.

Page 11 of 26 ends

7/7/2025 8:01:35 AM Page 7 of 21

 Social media posts highlighting state or national traffic safety campaigns (Distracted Driving Month, Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, etc.), enforcement operations (DUI checkpoints, etc.), or any other grant-related activity such as Bicycle rodeos, presentations, or events, are highly encouraged but do not require prior approval.
 Submit a draft or rough-cut of all digital, printed, recorded or video material (brochures, posters, scripts, artwork, trailer graphics, digital graphics, social posts connected to an earned or paid media campaign grant objective) to the OTS PIO at [email protected] and copy your OTS grant coordinator for approval prior to the production or duplication.  Use the following standard language in all press, media, and printed materials, space permitting:

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.  Space permitting, include the OTS logo on all grant-funded print materials, graphics and paid or earned social media campaign grant objective; consult the OTS PIO and copy your OTS grant coordinator for specifics, format-appropriate logos, or if space does not permit the use of the OTS logo.
 Email the OTS PIO at [email protected] and copy your OTS grant coordinator at least 21 days in advance, or when first confirmed, a short description of any significant grant-related traffic safety event or program, particularly events that are highly publicized beforehand with anticipated media coverage so OTS has sufficient notice to arrange for attendance and/or participation in the event.

If unable to attend, email the OTS PIO and coordinator brief highlights and/or results, including any media coverage (broadcast, digital, print) of event within 7 days following significant grant- related event or program. Media and program highlights are to be reflected in QPRs.  Any news releases, work plans, scripts, storyboards, artwork, graphics, videos or any educational or informational materials that received OTS PIO approval in a prior grant year needs to be resubmitted for approval in the current grant year.
 For additional guidance, refer to the OTS Grants Materials Approval Process Guidelines and OTS Grants Media Approval Process FAQs on the OTS website.  Contact the OTS PIO or your OTS grant coordinator for consultation when changes from any of the above requirements might be warranted.

a. the period during which the property is used for a purpose for which the Federal financial assistance is extended, or for another purpose involving the provision of similar services or benefits; or
b. the period during which the Recipient retains ownership or possession of the property.

9. The Recipient will provide for such methods of administration for the program as are found by the Secretary of Transportation or the official to whom he/she delegates specific authority to give reasonable guarantee that it, other recipients, sub-recipients, sub- grantees, contractors, subcontractors, consultants, transferees, successors in interest, and other participants of Federal financial assistance under such program will comply with all requirements imposed or pursuant to the Acts, the Regulations, and this Assurance.

I am excited to apply for a position on the Commission on Aging in Concord, CA. With extensive experience as a Senior Real Estate Specialist, I have dedicated my career to serving the needs of seniors and the sandwich generation. Over the years, I have gained a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by older adults and their families, including navigating housing transitions, financial planning, and caregiving responsibilities.

As a successful business owner for more than 18 years, I have honed my skills in leadership, communication, and problem-solving. My ability to build lasting relationships with clients and community members has been instrumental in creating tailored solutions that enhance the quality of life for seniors and their families. This hands-on experience has given me valuable insights into the diverse needs of our aging population and the importance of fostering a supportive and inclusive community. My professional background has also involved collaborating with multigenerational families to find practical and sustainable housing solutions. I am passionate about advocating for policies and initiatives that address the growing demand for senior services, affordable housing, and resources that empower older adults to age with dignity and independence. As a 28 year resident of Concord, serving on the Commission on Aging would provide me with an opportunity to contribute my expertise and dedication to the community I deeply care about. I am committed to working collaboratively with other members of the commission to develop innovative programs and strategies that promote the well-being of Concord’s senior residents.

As a local resident for 50+ years and as a senior, I believe that I bring the age and experience necessary to listen to options and evaluate them before making decisions in collaboration with other Commission members. Over the past 4 years, I have helped the Commission on Aging make outreach to various communities that were underserved at the Senior Center. We currently have a two-year work plan that will help the Commission focus on several areas where we feel we can make a positive difference to seniors in Concord. I have a Masters in Psychology with a concentration in industrial/organizational psychology.

The knowledge gained through that program will be of benefit to me in any business setting.

Additionally, I have a graduate level certificate in Conflict Resolution and have served as a volunteer mediator for the Contra Costa Superior Court, handling contested juvenile guardianship cases, since 2002. This training and experience help me to work through potentially-contentious situations with the hope of coming to a solution that will best serve all affected parties.

With over nine years of experience working in government finance, I’ve developed strong skills in budgeting, financial reporting, regulatory compliance, and public communication. My role requires close coordination with internal departments, external stakeholders, and our Board of Directors, giving me a solid understanding of how public agencies operate and make decisions. In addition to my professional experience, I’ve served on youth sports and Scouting nonprofit boards, where I helped manage operations, plan events, and support community engagement.

After forty years in commercial printing I went into real estate in 2003 as I had invested in real estate in the 1970's and 1980's and did quite well. I was among the top producers for each real estate company that I worked for- Prudential 4 years, Coldwell Banker 2 years and Keller Williams 14 years. I have served on the Board of Directors of the Contra Costa Association of Realtors and was President for two terms of the Contra Costa Realtors in Motion. I served as Chair of the CCAR Local Government Relations Committee and served on the Grievance Committee for many years. I have started two small businesses and operated them profitably prior to selling them. I served many years on the development committee at Contra Costa Christian School; I have served as treasurer for several non-profits including a home owners association and the International Association of Printing House Craftsmen; I served as Governor of the Eleventh District of the IAPHC; I set up bookkeeping systems for two non-profits and helped in the establishment of many small business accounting systems.

I took Accounting 101 at College of San Mateo and received the only 4.0 that that professor ever awarded. (He taught his classes as if we were all going to go to UC as Accounting majors.) I am currently on the Concord Pleasant Hill Health Care District Grant Committee which I chaired for four years. I am currently serving on the Measure V Oversight Commitee.

I enjoy serving my community and always hope to improve our city and county.

As stated above, my skills are many in public program administration. I am proud that every position I have held has resulted in positive change. I have worked for the City of Oakland's public programs in resource conservation. I have been a public school teacher for 16 years in Art & Science. I have collaborated with such organizations and businesses as the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Contra Costa County of Education, KQED & PBS Education, the UC Berkeley/UC Davis Climate Change Professional Learning Community and many more. I am an Elks Lodge member and help to coordinate public service outreach programs. I am a certified PBS Digital Media Literacy instructor. I have taught art classes at Diablo Valley College. I perform with our student improv and drama classes. I am an expert public speaker, lesson planner and teacher.

Question applies to Concord Pavilion Community Outreach Committee Why do you believe the Council should appoint you to the Concord Pavilion Community Outreach Committee?
Since 1972, I have lived in the East Bay. I raised my children in Walnut Creek and recently moved to Concord. I am eager to be involved, to contribute, to help make my community a better place. I have attended many concerts at the Concord Pavilion: it is one of my favorite venues in Northern California. I believe the Concord Pavilion is an under utilized gem of arts, culture, and gathering. To be involved in helping to bring about more people of the community to enjoy this amazing space would be a personal and professional achievement of a lifetime.

I have lived in Concord for most of my life; growing up here and then moving back after college. Because of this, I have been able to experience the parks and open spaces of the city through a number of different perspectives. I played in the park play structures as a kid, took swimming lessons at the community pool, and played in community soccer teams. As an adult, I have re-discovered these spaces, and continue to spend time in them. I take my dog to Cowell park for walks, and spend a lot of my time relaxing in the Markham Arboretum, or hiking in the Limeridge Open Space. I have wanted to get involved with my city and am seeking a future career in local government, and see serving as a member of a commission as a great place to start. I believe that my lifestyle and experiences with these resources make the Parks, Recreation, and Open Space Commission a particularly good fit for this.

Question applies to multiple boards
Describe prior service on a board, commission, or any other community service or public body, indicate agency and explain what significant contributions you made:

While attending Humboldt State University, I was an active member of the university's Earth Week Every Week Committee for two years. As a member I worked to build a collaborative network for the various student led environmental groups on campus. The committee met throughout the year to coordinate and plan events for "Earth Week," scheduled annually around Earth Day, incorporating students and their ideas, and ultimately culminating in a campus hosted banquet featuring guest speakers. I worked with the university to secure funding for student groups in order to run these events, and took the lead in reaching out to these speakers and planning the schedule for this banquet. I also served as a student member of the Humboldt Advisory Committee on Sustainability. The committee was made up of faculty and representatives from student groups, and charged with advising university leadership on specific, recommended actions that the campus could take to implement sustainability into the core focus of its operations and meet the targets set by various plans and policies including the CSU Sustainability Policy. As I was a relatively new member, I offered to keep time and take minutes at meetings which helped me familiarize myself with the group. Later on in my membership, I helped create an action plan for the campus to use in order to meet these goals.

From: Valerie J. Barone, City Manager

(925) 603-5872
Subject: Considering approval to renew the agreement between the City of Concord and the Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office, Forensic Services Division, for the County to provide forensic services from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027--estimated cost is $475,000 each fiscal year (General Fund); and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.

Report in Brief
The City of Concord Police Department’s (PD) primary forensic services contract has historically been with the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, Forensic Services Division. This contract supports the investigative needs of the Police Department by making specialized scientific equipment and staff expertise available to support criminal investigations.

Recommended Action
Approve the renewal of our agreement between the City of Concord (City) and the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s Office, Forensic Services Division, for the County to provide forensic services from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2027 — estimated cost is $475,000 each fiscal year; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.

Background
The Concord PD relies primarily on Contra Costa County (County) for forensic services and has for many years. The PD has found the forensic services provided by the

4.f4.f

Page 1 of 14 ends

City Council Agenda Report
Agenda Item No. 4.f
August 12, 2025
County to be responsive, professional, and cost effective and desires to continue the relationship. The County provides services to Concord PD such as analysis of narcotics/drugs, forensic examination of trace evidence in homicide and sexual assault investigations, all of which provide critical contributions toward solving cases and making the community safer.

Analysis
Highly technical forensic analysis and comparison of evidence is not within the capabilities of the Concord PD. The comprehensive forensic services provided by the County require a large staff, expensive scientific equipment, and significant ongoing training. Additionally, maintaining this level of staffing, equipment, and training would be cost prohibitive to the City. For these reasons, the Police Department contracts these services with the County.

As part of this agreement, the Forensic Services Division also provides 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, on-call technical consultation, and availability of trained crime scene experts in the event of a crime scene call-out.

Through this agreement the City would be continuing its contract with the County for forensic services. The quality of forensic services, proximity to Concord, and the professional staff at the Sheriff’s Office allows the PD to provide a high level of customer service and processing of evidence for our community. The Forensic Services Division performs necessary analysis for the PD and complies with AB 1517, the State Assembly bill that encourages the timely screening of sexual assault evidence kits.

This inter-agency agreement exists pursuant to Government Code sections 6500 et. seq. and applies only to services provided by the Forensic Services Division. The agreement continues in force until terminated by either party, which requires a 30-day written notice or mutual agreement by both parties. The agreement does not identify an amount to be expended in any given year, as charges are levied based on services used. The City spent approximately $450,000 in FY2024/2025 and $410,000 to $460,000 in prior fiscal years, hence the estimate of $475,000 a year, which is within the Department’s adopted budget. This is considered a reasonable amount expected to adequately cover the costs associated with this agreement.

Financial Impact
The estimated total cost for Crime Lab services for Fiscal Years 2025-2027 is $950,000, with $475,000 per singular fiscal year (FY2025-26 and FY2026-27). Sufficient funds are available in the Concord Police Department’s FYs 2025-27 Biennial Operating Budget.

Report in Brief
The Street Maintenance Project No. 1 (City Project No. 2736) will construct pavement repairs on five roads around the City. The project includes repairs on portions of Bailey Road, Willow Way, Burnett Avenue, Laura Alice Way, and Nelson Avenue (See Attachment 1). Project improvements include paving, striping, and utility adjustments.

The project has been designed and competitively bid; and is at the point of construction contract award. If award is approved by the City Council, project construction is expected to begin in early September 2025 and be completed by the end of October 2025, weather permitting.

Recommended Action

1. Award a construction contract in the amount of $1,372,530 to Goodfellow Bros. California, LLC of Livermore, CA for the Street Maintenance Project No. 1 (Project No. 2736); authorize staff to utilize the available project contingency for contract change orders that become necessary up to 30% of contract amount, and authorize the Mayor to execute the contract in a form acceptable to the City Attorney; and make the CEQA determinations as provided in this staff report (Measure V Funds);

2. Approve an agreement with the City of Pittsburg to construct pavement repairs on Bailey Road in a not-to-exceed amount of $135,000, and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney; and

3. Authorize the City Engineer to accept the improvements upon completion of Project No. 2736, and direct the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.

Background
The Street Maintenance Project No. 1 (Project) was created as part of the Two-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget that was approved by City Council in June 2024. Project design started in January 2025 and was completed in May 2025.

The scope of work for the Project includes pavement repairs on five roads. The specific locations are as follows:
• Bailey Road from Myrtle Drive to northern City Limits o Pittsburg limit extends about one mile north of City limits • Willow Way between Diamond Blvd and Meridian Park Boulevard • Burnett Avenue between Diamond Boulevard and I-680 On-Ramp (westbound direction only)
• Laura Alice Way between Arnold Industrial Way and Nelson Avenue • Nelson Avenue from Laura Alice Way to about 700 feet east of the intersection

City Council Agenda Report

August 12, 2025
Pavement repairs include a grind and overlay of 2” on Bailey Road and 3” on all other roads, in addition to base repairs at the discretion of the City Engineer. This project will also be removing the railroad track that crosses Bailey Road as they are not used, interrupt ride quality and create roadway maintenance challenges. There will also be new striping and utility adjustments on all roads.

The City reached out to City of Pittsburg (Pittsburg) to see if there was interest from Pittsburg in performing pavement repairs within their jurisdiction along Bailey Road.

Pittsburg expressed interest in performing select pavement repair treatments such as base repairs and shoulder backing. As part of an interagency collaborative effort, an agreement (Attachment 4) was created by the City as the Lead Agency. This agreement will allow for additional pavement repairs to be constructed on Bailey Road while reducing future impacts to both Concord and Pittsburg residents. The Project will be performing all pavement repairs on Bailey Road at night with a full road closure for about two weeks, with proper advance notifications to Concord, Pittsburg, and Contra Costa County residents.

Staff is requesting a 30% construction contingency for this project because this contingency amount will include costs for including repairs paid for and at the discretion of the City of Pittsburg.

Procurement Process
The project was advertised for construction bids as required by State law and City policy. The Engineer’s Estimate for the Total Bid is $2,300,000. Bids were opened on June 19, 2025. Eight (8) bids were received in the amount ranging from $1,372,530 to $1,865,908.50. The basis of award for this project is the Total Bid. The lowest bid was received from Goodfellow Bros of Livermore, CA (Goodfellow). A summary of the three lowest bids is as follows:

Goodfellow is registered with the Department of Industrial Relations as required by SB 854. Staff is recommending award of the Total Bid.

Agreement. Should Council award this contract, pavement repairs on five roads will be constructed.

Financial Impact
The current total budget for this project is $3,000,000 and is funded by Measure V funds (Fund 407). There are sufficient funds to award the construction contract, provide for a 30% construction contingency that includes proposed work on Bailey Road within City of Pittsburg, provide for construction management, inspection and testing services, and staff oversight. The City will be fronting the costs for Pittsburg and then seeking reimbursement after construction on the project is completed, as defined in the interagency agreement.

Environmental Determination
Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060 (c), 15061 (b)(3), 15273, 15378, and Public Resources Code Section 21065, award of this contract is not subject to environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as amended, as it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. In the alternative, award of this contract is exempt under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 – Existing Facilities, 15302 – Replacement and Reconstruction, and 15304 – Minor Alterations to Land, as it involves pavement repairs where there is existing pavement, striping, and utility adjustments. No unusual circumstances exist and none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 applies. This determination reflects the City’s independent judgement and analysis. The Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Clerk’s office following the Council award of the construction contract.
