PRESENTED BY: BRENDA GREEN, CITY CLERK
CONTACT INFORMATION: BRENDA GREEN, CITY CLERK, (714) 754-5221 RECOMMENDATION:
Review and approve the proposed City Council Meeting Calendar for 2026.
BACKGROUND:
The City holds regular City Council meetings on the first and third Tuesday of each month, and Study Session meeting on the second Tuesday of each month as needed. In accordance with Council direction from the June 7, 2016, meeting, the City Council does not meet on the third Tuesday in August. Additionally, per Resolution 05-8, no meeting is held on the third Tuesday in December.
ANALYSIS:
The City Council has the legal authority to establish meeting dates and times and to cancel or reschedule such meetings with proper and timely public notice. The January 6, 2026, regular meeting follows the holidays and the closure of City Hall from Wednesday, December 24, 2025 through Friday, January 2, 2026. It is recommended that the January 6, 2026, regular City Council meeting be canceled due to the closure. Additionally, the regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, falls on Election Day. Canceling both the January 6th and November 3rd meetings in advance allows time for proper public noticing and placement of items on other agendas.
The proposed 2026 City Council meeting calendar is as follows:
· January 20, 2026
· February 3, 2026
· February 17, 2026
· March 3, 2026

· November 17, 2026
· December 1, 2026
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may choose to hold the meeting on January 6, 2026; however, this action is not recommended due to the holiday closure and limited staff resources. Additionally, the City Council may choose to hold the meeting of Tuesday, November 3, 2026; however, this action is not recommended as many residents may not be in attendance due to Election Day priorities.
FISCAL REVIEW:
There is no fiscal impact to this agenda item.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed the report and approved as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This item is administrative in nature.
CONCLUSION:
Review and approve the recommended City Council Meeting Calendar for 2026.

TITLE:
AUTHORIZE THE USE OF SOURCEWELL’S NATIONAL COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH NATIONAL AUTO FLEET FOR THE PURCHASE OF EIGHT (8) ALLMAND PORTABLE LIGHT TOWERS
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/MAINTENANCE SERVICES DIVISION PRESENTED BY: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
CONTACT INFORMATION: ROBERT RYAN, MAINTENANCE SERVICES MANAGER (714) 327-7499
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Authorize the use of Sourcewell’sCooperative Agreement No. 091521-NAF with National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of eight (8) Allmand GR Series portable light towers.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for the purchase in the amount of $109,897 through National Auto Fleet Group located at 490 Auto Center Drive, Watsonville, CA 95076.
BACKGROUND:
The use of portable lights has been a continued necessity for the City to conduct youth programs and special events throughout the year. Staff provides portable light towers to several parks and recreational areas throughout the City for sporting activities and special events. The Public Works Department is responsible for maintaining an existing fleet of forty-eight (48) light towers.
Consistent with past practices, new and/or replacement vehicle and equipment requests are evaluated during the annual budget process along with Equipment Maintenance staff recommendations. The Parks and Community Services Department has identified the need for additional units at multiple field locations throughout the City.
ANALYSIS:
Many of the City-owned portable light towers are older models that have been discontinued, and acquiring parts and support services is challenging and will continue to be. Five (5) units are in poor condition due to their high exposure to weather elements and should be replaced (unit numbers 367, 368, 369, 371, and 375). In addition to the five (5) units, the Parks and Community Services Department identified the need for three (3) additional units.
The procurement of eight (8) portable light towers will enhance the City’s fleet and improve the
38 File #: 25-570 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
The procurement of eight (8) portable light towers will enhance the City’s fleet and improve the reliability of lighting for facilities and fields used during City recreational events. The Allmand GR Series portable light towers represent the most cost-effective option for replacement and are consistent with the newer units currently owned by the City.
Without access to portable light towers, the City would not be able to provide the necessary lighting and safety for the community participating in youth programs throughout the year. To meet current and future demands in an efficient and fiscally prudent manner, staff requests the approval for the purchase of portable light towers.
Purchasing these eight (8) Allmand GR Series portable light towers through Sourcewell meets all requirements set forth in the City of Costa Mesa’sPurchasing Policy and all requirements set forth by the State of California regarding regional cooperative purchasing agreements. This process confirms that the City continues to receive the lowest available pricing and meets the competitive bid process requirements. The City has utilized Sourcewell successfully for several previous related purchases.
The Sourcewell purchase quote of $109,897 includes all parts and equipment for the procurement and delivery (Attachment 1).
ALTERNATIVES:
One alternative is to not use the Cooperative Agreement and go through a procurement process.
This will require staff to initiate a formal bidding process, which will take significantly more time to complete, and may not result in lower prices than the proposed Sourcewell pricing.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The budget for the replacement of five (5) existing light towers and purchase of three (3) new light towers is included in the City’sFiscal Year 2025-26 Adopted Budget in the Equipment Replacement Fund (Fund 601).
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed this report and approves it as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This item supports the following City Council Goal:
· Strengthen the Public’s Safety and Improve the Quality of Life.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Authorize the use of Sourcewell’sCooperative Agreement No. 091521-NAF with National Auto Fleet Group for the purchase of eight (8) Allmand GR Series portable light towers.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for the purchase in the amount of $109,897 through National Auto Fleet Group located at 490 Auto Center Drive, Watsonville, CA 95076.

47 CITY OF COSTA MESA
Agenda Report
77 Fair Drive
Costa Mesa, CA 92626
File #: 25-571 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
TITLE:
AUTHORIZE THE USE OF A COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT WITH LONG BEACH BMW FOR THE PURCHASE OF FOUR NEW 2026 BMW R1300 RT-P POLICE MOTORCYCLES DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/MAINTENANCE SERVICES DIVISION PRESENTED BY: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
CONTACT INFORMATION: ROBERT RYAN, MAINTENANCE SERVICES MANAGER (714) 327-7499
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Approve the purchase of four (4) new 2026 BMW R1300 RT-P police motorcycles based on pricing through a Goods Purchase Agreement between The City of San Bernardino and Long Beach BMW entered on June 25, 2025.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for the purchase in the amount of $164,439 from Long Beach BMW Motorcycles located at 2125 E. Spring Street, Long Beach, CA 90806.
BACKGROUND:
Consistent with past practices, new and/or replacement vehicle and equipment requests are evaluated during the annual budget process along with recommendations from the Equipment Maintenance staff.
The current BMW police motorcycles budgeted for replacement have high mileage and usage and require a higher level of maintenance and repair costs. All four (4) motorcycles (unit # 624, 626, 631 and 632) approved for replacement have exceeded their anticipated service lives.
ANALYSIS:
Police motorcycles are a vital component in daily Police/Public Safety operations. The purchase of these motorcycles will upgrade the City’sfleet of operable motorcycles and facilitate the response to emergency and safety concerns, thereby improving the City’sability to serve the community and its stakeholders.
The purchase of the motorcycles will be completed through a cooperative agreement with the City of San Bernardino, RFQ F-25-4043. The City of San Bernardino completed a competitive bid process for BMW 1300 RT-P police motorcycles. In the City of San Bernardino’sbid package, cooperative
48 File #: 25-571 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
for BMW 1300 RT-P police motorcycles. In the City of San Bernardino’sbid package, cooperative language was included that allowed the resultant agreement to be extended to other public agencies.
The City of Costa Mesa requested and received permission from the City of San Bernardino to utilize that agreement. The City of San Bernardino awarded its bid to Long Beach BMW Motorcycles (Attachment 1). Procurement of motorcycles using this cooperative agreement meets all requirements of the City’s purchasing policies.
Long Beach BMW Motorcycles offered in their pricing to the City, an option to purchase additional quantities as needed (Attachment 2). Pricing is good until June 30, 2026.
ALTERNATIVES:
One alternative is to not use the Cooperative Agreement and go through a procurement process.
However, staff does not believe this will result in lower prices for the motorcycles. Another alternative to purchasing new BMW motorcycles is to retain the models currently in the fleet. These motorcycles are heavily used, show considerable wear and are seeing increased maintenance costs and extended down times. Staff does not recommend this alternative due to the fact that police motorcycle units are a vital component in daily Police/Public Safety operations.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The replacement costs for four (4) police motorcycles is included in the City’sFiscal Year 2025-26 Adopted Budget in the Equipment Replacement Fund (Fund 601).
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed this report and approves it as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This supports the following City Council Goal:
· Strengthen the Public’s Safety and Improve the Quality of Life.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends City Council:
1. Approve the purchase of four (4) new 2026 BMW R1300 RT-P police motorcycles based on pricing through a Goods Purchase Agreement between the City of San Bernardino and Long Beach BMW entered on June 25, 2025.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the necessary documents for the purchase in the amount of $164,439 from Long Beach BMW Motorcycles located at 2125 E. Spring Street, Long Beach, CA 90806.

MEASURE M2 EXPENDITURE REPORT
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ADMINISTRATION
PRESENTED BY: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
CONTACT INFORMATION: CHRISTINE TSAO, SENIOR MANAGEMENT ANALYST (714) 754 -5024
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed Resolution No. 2025-xx, approving the Measure M2 Expenditure Report and authorize staff to submit the report to the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA).
BACKGROUND:
The approved guidelines for Renewed Measure “M” (M2) eligibility require that local agencies prepare and adopt an annual expenditure report on Measure M2 funds. The expenditure report is a detailed financial report, which tracks financial activity related to Measure M2 and other improvement funds. The report should account for the receipt, interest earned, and the use of Measure M2 and other funds as outlined in the Ordinance approved by the OCTA Board and the Orange County voters. OCTA requires the annual report to be provided within six (6) months from the end of the jurisdiction’s fiscal year.
ANALYSIS:
In order to qualify for Measure M2 funding, all agencies have to meet certain eligibility criteria established by the Ordinance approving the “M2”Program. Preparation of the expenditure report is one such requirement that each jurisdiction has to meet on an annual basis.
The guidelines require each city to prepare and adopt an annual expenditure report to account for Measure M2 funds, developer/traffic impact fees, and funds expended by the City to satisfy Maintenance of Effort requirements. The following are the requirements of the expenditure report:
· Submit report within six (6) months of the jurisdiction’s end of fiscal year; · Include all Measure M2 revenue, fund balances, and interest earned; · Identify expenditures by activity type (capital, operations, administration, etc.) and the funding
74 File #: 25-587 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
· Identify expenditures by activity type (capital, operations, administration, etc.) and the funding source for each program/project; and
· Submit the expenditure report signed by the Finance Director, accompanied by a resolution from the City Council.
The City of Costa Mesa’sreport for Fiscal Year 2024-25 is due by December 31, 2025. Staff prepared the attached expenditure report (Attachment 2) in accordance with OCTA guidelines. The report was reviewed in draft form by OCTA staff, and the information provided was determined to be acceptable.
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed resolution (Attachment 1) approving the expenditure report and authorize staff to submit the report to OCTA.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council may choose not to approve the proposed resolution. This alternative would make the City ineligible to receive Measure M2 funds from the Orange County Transportation Authority.
Staff does not recommend this alternative.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The expenditure report took into account the final review of revenues and expenses for Fiscal Year 2024-25. The information contained in the M2 Expenditure Report was also reviewed by OCTA staff and determined to be acceptable.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’sOffice has reviewed this agenda report and resolution and approves them both as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This item supports the following City Council Goal:
· Achieve Long-Term Fiscal Sustainability
CONCLUSION:
The voter-approved Measure M2 requires local agencies to meet certain eligibility requirements for receipt of Measure M2 funds, including approval of the M2 Expenditure Report. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed resolution approving the M2 Expenditure Report for Fiscal Year 2024-25, for submittal to OCTA.

TITLE:
FREEWAY MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT AND AGREEMENT FOR SHARING COSTS OF STATE
HIGHWAY ELECTRICAL FACILITIES
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/ADMINISTRATION
PRESENTED BY: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
CONTACT INFORMATION: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR, (714) 754- 5343
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Approve Freeway Maintenance Agreement between the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the City of Costa Mesa for the I-405 Improvements Project.
2. Approve the Agreement for Sharing Costs of State Highway Electrical Facilities between Caltrans and the City of Costa Mesa.
3. Authorize staff to accept any minor amendments to the agreements based on final review by all parties and for the Mayor and City Clerk to execute final agreements.
BACKGROUND:
The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) in cooperation with the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), the City of Costa Mesa, and other I-405 corridor cities, recently completed the I-405 Improvement Project, between SR-73 and I-605 Freeways. The project included several new elements as well as features within the City of Costa Mesa, such as new sound walls and monument signs.
The City and Caltrans have a Freeway Maintenance Agreement (FMA) that identifies roles and responsibilities of each agency as it pertains to the I-405 Freeway. The current agreement was executed in 2007 and requires amendments to account for recent adjustments with the I-405 Improvement Project. The City and Caltrans also have an agreement for sharing costs of electrical facilities, primarily traffic signals, at freeway on- and off-ramps. This agreement is from 1993 and Caltrans requested that it needs to be updated to reflect their new requirements.
84 File #: 25-588 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
ANALYSIS:
The I-405 Improvements Project was substantially completed and formally opened to the public on December 1, 2023. The project incorporated new sound walls as well as other aesthetic treatments including City logo and street name identifier on Fairview overcrossing.
Freeway Maintenance Agreement (FMA): The FMA designates maintenance responsibilities between Caltrans and the City along the I-405 Corridor, in accordance with Streets and Highways Code and the State Maintenance Manual. According to Caltrans, the current FMA, executed in May 2007, will need to be updated to reflect current built conditions on the I-405 Freeway. The proposed new FMA is included as Attachment 1. The City is primarily responsible for the following in accordance with the FMA:
· Maintenance of City streets identified in the Exhibits in the FMA; · Routine maintenance including street cleaning; minor non-structural repair of sidewalks, signing and striping;
· Graffiti abatement in the areas facing and accessible from City right-of-way; and · Repair and replacement of Community Identifier sign on Fairview Road overcrossing.
The state is responsible for the maintenance of the I-405 Freeway, structural integrity of all the bridges and other elements, sound walls and all fencing within state right-of-way.
Agreement for Sharing Cost of State Highway Electrical Facilities: This agreement also referred to as Electrical Cost Sharing Agreement (ECSA) is for the maintenance of traffic signal and related equipment at the intersection of State Highway and a City Street. The City of Costa Mesa has such shared facilities at various on- and off-ramps along I-405, SR-73 and SR-55 Freeways. The current ECSA was executed on June 21, 1993 (Attachment 2) and amended in 1997.
According to the current agreement, the City is responsible for electrical costs at all intersections shared with Caltrans, while Caltrans is responsible for all operating and maintenance functions.
According to new Caltrans policies, all costs (electrical, maintenance, etc.) are shared between agencies, based on number of intersecting legs. This proposed major revision has potential for increases to City share of costs associated with Caltrans-shared intersections.
In order to further analyze the new cost sharing arrangement, a 3-year pilot program is proposed where only the intersections impacted by the I-405 Freeway project will incorporate this new cost sharing program. These intersections include:
· Fairview Road - I-405 SB Ramps
· Fairview Road - I-405 NB Ramps
· Harbor Boulevard - I-405 SB Off Ramp
· Harbor Boulevard - I-405 NB Off Ramp
· South Coast Drive - I-405 NB Off Ramp
· Susan Street - I-405 NB Off Ramp
· Hyland Avenue - I-405 NB On Ramp
At all other intersections, the current arrangement where the City is responsible for electrical costs
85 File #: 25-588 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
At all other intersections, the current arrangement where the City is responsible for electrical costs and Caltrans is responsible for all maintenance costs will continue. At the end of the 3-year period, City and Caltrans will evaluate and consider further changes to the ECSA. This is reflected in the new agreement included as Attachment 3.
Staff requests that City Council approve the FMA and ECSA and authorize staff to accept any minor modifications to the agreement based on final review by both parties. Staff also requests City Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the final agreements.
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative to this Council action would be to not approve the agreements. Staff does not recommend this alternative as this is a requirement of State’s Streets and Highways Code and is also a requirement of the Memorandum of Understanding executed with OCTA for the I-405 Improvement Project.
FISCAL REVIEW:
Funding for the agreements is available in the Public Works Department’s Fiscal Year 2025-26 Operating Budget in the General Fund (Fund 101).
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed this agenda report and the proposed agreements and approves them as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This project works toward achieving the following City Council goals:
· Maintain and Enhance the City’s Facilities, Equipment and Technology · Strengthen the Public’s Safety and Improve the Quality of Life CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends the City Council:
1. Approve Freeway Maintenance Agreement between the State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and the City of Costa Mesa for the I-405 Improvements Project.
2. Approve the Agreement for Sharing Costs of State Highway Electrical Facilities between Caltrans and the City of Costa Mesa.
3. Authorize staff to accept any minor amendments to the agreements based on final review by all parties and for the Mayor and City Clerk to execute final agreements.

File #: 25-589 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
TITLE:
ADAMS AVENUE BICYCLE FACILITY PROJECT (FROM HARBOR BOULEVARD TO FAIRVIEW ROAD), FEDERAL PROJECT NO. STPL-5312(108), CITY PROJECT NO. 25-11 DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
DIVISION
PRESENTED BY: RAJA SETHURAMAN, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
CONTACT INFORMATION: PAUL MARTIN, TRANSPORTATION SERVICES MANAGER (714) 754-5343
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt plans, specifications, and working details for the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project (From Harbor Boulevard to Fairview Road), Federal Project No. STPL-5312(108), City Project No. 25-11, and find the project categorically exempt from CEQA.
2. Approve a Public Works Agreement (PWA) in the amount of $2,268,636, and a ten percent (10%) contingency in the amount of $226,864 to Excel Paving Company, 2230 Lemon Avenue, Long Beach CA 90806.
3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) in the amount of $241,374 and a ten percent (10%) contingency in the amount of $24,137, to Z&K Consultants, Inc., 17130 Van Buren Blvd. #122, Riverside, CA 92504, for construction management and inspection support services for the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project.
4. Authorize the City Manager and the City Clerk to execute the PWA and the PSA and any future amendments to the agreements within Council authorized limits.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
The proposed project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project involves an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical change in the environment. The proposed project is categorically exempt under Section 15301 relating to the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, and/or minor alteration of existing public facilities. A Notice of Exemption was prepared by City Staff, was posted to the Office of Planning and Research on August 3, 2023, and was filed and posted at the Orange County Clerk- Recorder Department on August 10, 2023.
147
File #: 25-589 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
The proposed project is categorically excluded from the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
Per the Code of Federal Regulations 23 CFR 771.117(c)(3), the construction of bicycle and pedestrian lanes, paths, and facilities are considered actions that meet the criteria for categorical exclusions from NEPA and are deemed to not have any significant environmental impacts. A Preliminary Environmental Study classifying the project as categorically excluded was submitted to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) on February 3, 2025. On March 20, 2025, Caltrans provided concurrence with the NEPA determination of Categorical Exclusion.
BACKGROUND:
The Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project (From Harbor Boulevard to Fairview Road), Federal Project No. STPL-5312(108), City Project No. 25-11 (Project), is a federally funded project that seeks to improve bicyclist accessibility and safety. It provides enhanced bikeways along Adams Avenue from Harbor Boulevard to Fairview Road that provide improved mobility consistent with the City’s adopted Active Transportation Plan (ATP).
The Project will narrow the raised center medians to provide enhanced bike facilities without reducing the number of vehicular lanes along Adams Avenue. From Harbor Boulevard to Pinecreek Drive, the project will construct new Cycle Track bikeways on both sides of Adams Avenue. From Pinecreek Drive to Fairview Road, the project will construct a new Cycle Track along eastbound Adams Avenue and a new Class II Buffered Bike Lane along westbound Adams Avenue adjacent to existing on-street parking. The Project will also include slurry seal, new landscaping and irrigation, new streetlighting, green bicycle markings, and traffic signal and bikeway modifications at the intersection of Adams Avenue and Fairview Road.
The new bicycle facilities will connect to the City’saward-winning multi-use bicycle and pedestrian pathways constructed at the intersection of Adams Avenue and Pinecreek Drive that finished construction in May 2025. These new improvements will create a continuous low-stress bikeway from Harbor Boulevard to Fairview Road and will improve mobility and connectivity to Orange Coast College (OCC) and the surrounding neighborhoods.
The Project is being implemented in partnership with OCC. Staff made presentations to the OCC Facilities Committee during various stages of design and received support for project implementation.
The City’sActive Transportation Committee (ATC) also reviewed the project design plans at various stages and provided input and approval for the Project. A community outreach meeting was also held for the project during the design phase, where the public voiced support and provided input.
The contractor is required to complete all tasks necessary to perform the scope of work as outlined in the contract documents, plans, and specifications. A copy of the specifications and working details are available for review in the Office of the City Clerk.
City Staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to select a well-qualified consultant to lead the construction management and inspection operations of this project. A copy of the RFP is available for review in the Office of the City Clerk.
148
File #: 25-589 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
ANALYSIS:
Project Construction:
The City received and opened six (6) bids for this project on October 15, 2025. Excel Paving Company (Excel), is the apparent low bidder with a base bid proposal of $2,268,636. The bid abstract for this project is included as Attachment 1.
Staff analyzed the bid proposal submitted by Excel and found no errors or irregularities. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize and award a construction contract to the apparent lowest bidder, Excel Paving Company. The license and references of Excel have been checked and staff has found them to be in good standing.
Upon City Council authorization to execute the Public Works Agreement (PWA), (Attachment 2) Excel will furnish the necessary bonds and insurance, which will be approved as to form by Risk Management. After the award and subsequent execution of the agreement, a “Noticeto Proceed”will be issued.
Project Construction Management and Inspection Support:
On September 5, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Construction Management and Inspection Support Services for the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project. Eleven (11) consultant proposals were received on September 23, 2025.
Proposals were reviewed for compliance with the City’sRFP process, and the proposed consultants were evaluated based on project understanding, depth of experience, technical expertise, and associated evaluation criteria. The City’s evaluation and selection process was conducted in accordance with Chapter V, Article 2 of the City's Municipal Code (Code). In accordance with the Code, the responsive responsible proposer shall be determined based on evaluation of qualitative factors in addition to cost. During the evaluation process, the following criteria was used:
1. Project Approach, Scope, & Methodology ------------------------------------- 20%
2. Qualifications, Organization & Key Staff Experience ------------------------ 40%
3. Experience and Record of Success on Similar Federal Projects --------- 30%
4. Cost Effectiveness -------------------------------------------------------------------- 10% After careful review of the proposals, the evaluation team determined the top three ranked consultants (in order):
1. Z&K Consultants, Inc. (Z&K)
2. Interwest Consulting Group, Inc.
3. Reddy Engineering
Staff determined that the highest-ranked consultant, Z&K, is well qualified to perform the requested construction management and inspection support services for the project. The proposal showed that Z&K has a thorough understanding of the project and the contract documents. They identified potential issues that could arise in construction and provided recommendations tailored specifically
149
File #: 25-589 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
potential issues that could arise in construction and provided recommendations tailored specifically for the project to address those issues. Z&K’sproposed team consists of a construction manager and inspector who both have experience working on numerous federally funded projects administered through Caltrans. Z&K’s proposal showcased many federally funded projects they have assisted other cities with and included detailed information regarding the scope of those projects. The fees proposed by Z&K were determined to be very competitive and commensurate with the requested services.
The second highest ranked consultant, Interwest Consulting Group, was qualified to perform the construction management and inspection support services. They proposed the same construction manager and inspector that worked on the recently completed Adams Avenue and Pinecreek Drive Intersection Project, and they have experience working on federally funded projects. During the evaluation, however, staff discovered that Interwest had made a mistake in their understanding of the work duration of the project, which significantly increased their fees and negatively affected their overall score.
As the third highest ranked consultant, Reddy Engineering proposed a well-organized project team with some experience working on federally funded projects in San Diego County. They did a good job of providing details about their involvement in various projects and the challenges that they faced and addressed during each project. Reddy Engineering, however, did not provide adequate details and examples about the federally funded projects and their scope of services, providing only cursory mentions of the federal requirements for the project.
Therefore, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the execution of a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Z&K Consultants, Inc., (Attachment 3) in the amount of $241,374 for construction management and inspection support services.
Contingency:
Staff requests approval of a ten percent (10%) contingency for both the construction and construction management agreements for unforeseen costs that may arise.
Community Workforce Agreement:
The Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project is subject to the Community Workforce Agreement (CWA). The City Council approved the CWA on February 1, 2022, in order to promote efforts to increase employment opportunities for residents of Costa Mesa and to facilitate training and employment for the City’sstudents and veterans in the construction trades through apprenticeships and to encourage efficiency in construction operations. Previous CWA-administered capital improvement projects include the Adams Avenue Improvement Project, the Fire Station No. 4 Training Tower and Site Improvements Project, and the Citywide Parkway Maintenance Street Rehabilitation and Slurry Seal Project.
On March 7, 2023, the City Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) to The Solís Group (Solís) to assist the City in administering the CWA. Solís will render its services to manage the provisions of the CWA for this project, including the preparation and submission of the final report.
150
File #: 25-589 Meeting Date: 12/2/2025
ALTERNATIVES:
The alternative would be to reject all bids, re-advertise, and re-bid the construction project. Staff has determined that re-advertising and re-bidding the project will not result in lower bids and will delay the project and adversely affect the project’sfederal grant funding. In addition, the alternative to reject all proposals and re-advertise the RFP for construction management services will not result in lower cost proposals and will only delay the project delivery.
FISCAL REVIEW:
The funding for the construction and construction management, inclusive of the 10% contingency, for a total amount of $2,761,011 is available in the FY 2025-26 Capital Improvement Program budget, consisting of Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) in the Federal Grant Fund (Fund 230), Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) Fund (Fund 214), and Regional Measure M2 Fairshare Fund (Fund 416).
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’sOffice has reviewed this agenda report, prepared the agreements, and approves them all as to form.
CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND PRIORITIES:
This project works toward achieving the following City Council goals:
· Strengthen the Public’s Safety and Improve the Quality of Life · Maintain and enhance the City’s facilities, equipment, and technology. · Advance environmental sustainability and climate resiliency.
CONCLUSION:
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt plans, specifications, and working details for the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project (From Harbor Boulevard to Fairview Road), Federal Project No. STPL-5312(108), City Project No. 25-11, and find the project categorically exempt from CEQA.
2. Approve a Public Works Agreement (PWA) in the amount of $2,268,636, and a ten percent (10%) contingency in the amount of $226,864 to Excel Paving Company, 2230 Lemon Avenue, Long Beach, CA 90806.
3. Approve a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) in the amount of $241,374 and a ten percent (10%) contingency in the amount of $24,137, to Z&K Consultants, Inc., 17130 Van Buren Blvd. #122, Riverside, CA 92504, for construction management and inspection support services for the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project.
4. Authorize the City Manager and the City Clerk to execute the PWA and the PSA and any future amendments to the agreements within Council authorized limits.

BACKGROUND AND PROJECT SUMMARY SECTION
The City of Costa Mesa is advancing the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project to improve safety, accessibility, and multimodal connectivity along a key corridor in the community. Adams Avenue is classified as a Major Arterial and serves as an important east-west route, providing access to residential neighborhoods, local businesses, and Orange Coast College. The project is federally funded through the Orange County Complete Streets Program (OCCSP) grant in combination with City funds, and must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local requirements, including Davis-Bacon prevailing wage laws, DBE participation goals, Buy America provisions, and Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) standards.
The project will enhance bicycle and pedestrian
connectivity near Orange Coast College and tie into the recently constructed Class I multi-use pathway at
Pinecreek Drive. A primary objective is to reduce
conflicts between vehicles and bicyclists by
constructing a Class IV cycle track with vertical
separation in the bike lane buffer. These improvements
reflect the City’s broader goals of providing safe,
sustainable, and user-friendly infrastructure that
supports active transportation and reduces congestion.
Construction is anticipated to begin in January 2026 and extend for approximately 90 working days.
Because of the project’s location adjacent to Orange Coast College, coordination will be essential to avoid conflicts with special events and high-traffic periods. Public outreach and communication with residents, businesses, and roadway users will also play a critical role in minimizing impacts and ensuring smooth project delivery.
Scope of Work | The project includes the following key improvements along Adams Avenue:
• Reconstruction and Median Modifications:
Reconstructing and narrowing the existing
medians along Adams Avenue to accommodate
the new bicycle facilities and landscaping
improvements.
• Class IV Cycle Track: Construction of a
separated Class IV cycle track with K71 bollards
to create a safe, dedicated space for bicyclists
and provide vertical separation from vehicular
traffic.
• Traffic Signal Modifications: Modifying the
traffic signals at the intersection of Adams
Avenue and Fairview Road to support the new
roadway configuration and bicycle safety
improvements.
• Pavement Treatments and Striping: Installing
green bicycle pavement markings, bike boxes,
and other traffic markings to clearly delineate
bicycle priority areas and improve visibility.
• Landscaping and Irrigation: Installing new
landscaping and irrigation systems within the
reconstructed medians to improve aesthetics,
reduce heat island effects, and support
sustainability.
• Street Lighting: Adding new street lighting
along the south side of Adams Avenue to
enhance safety and visibility for all roadway
users.
• Slurry Seal and Pavement Work: Applying
slurry seal (Type II with 2.5% latex), sealing
cracks, and preparing the roadway surface for
new striping and markers.
• Traffic Control, Public Outreach, &
Notifications: Implementing traffic control
measures to maintain safe vehicle, bicycle, and
pedestrian access during construction, along
with providing timely notifications to residents,
businesses, and Orange Coast College.
The total estimated construction cost is approximately $3.25 million. Collectively, these improvements will significantly upgrade Adams Avenue by providing safer, more accessible infrastructure for bicyclists and pedestrians, while maintaining existing traffic lanes and parking where feasible. This project represents a critical step in advancing the City’s Complete Streets vision and supporting long-term community mobility goals.

PROJECT APPROACH & METHODOLOGY
Z&K Consultants, Inc. is committed to delivering the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project with a proactive, solutions-focused approach that emphasizes safety, compliance, and efficiency. Our methodology is rooted in a thorough understanding of the project’s objectives, potential challenges, and federal funding requirements. By combining experienced leadership, detailed inspection oversight, and clear communication with the City, Orange Coast College, and the community, we will ensure the project is completed on time, within budget, and to the highest standards of quality.
Understanding of Project and Objectives | Z&K Consultants recognizes that the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project is a federally funded, time-sensitive investment in Costa Mesa’s multimo dal transportation network. Our team is familiar with the corridor’s role as a major arterial, its adjacency to Orange Coast College, and the need to balance roadway function with enhanced bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. The City’s primary objectives are to improve safety, provide a Class IV separated cycle track, modernize traffic operations, and enhance median landscaping while minimizing disruption to residents, businesses, and roadway users. To achieve these objectives, Z&K’s methodology emphasizes proactive communication, strict compliance with Caltrans LAPM and federal requirements, and close coordination with City staff, Orange Coast College, and contractors.
Approach to Scope of Services
ü Pre-Construction: Conduct thorough reviews of PS&E, stormwater, and traffic control plans; participate in pre-construction meetings; establish control systems for documentation; and coordinate baseline schedules with the contractor.
ü Construction Oversight: Provide continuous inspection, enforce safety and compliance requirements, oversee quality assurance testing with Converse Consultants, and manage all RFIs, submittals, change orders, and claims.
ü Federal & City Compliance: Monitor DBE participation, enforce Davis-Bacon wage requirements, verify prompt payment to subcontractors, and prepare all required LAPM exhibits and forms. ü Community Coordination: Manage construction notifications and act as liaison with Orange Coast College and the business community to avoid conflicts with events or access. ü Project Close-Out: Prepare punch lists, confirm corrective work, oversee record drawings and as- builts, and complete all Caltrans and federal reporting requirements.
Anticipated Project Issues and Mitigation | Every construction project presents unique challenges that must be proactively addressed to ensure successful delivery. Z&K has carefully reviewed all project documents and conducted a site visit to identify potential risks associated with the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project, and developed practical strategies to minimize their impact. Importantly, these approaches are informed by lessons learned from multiple projects we have successfully delivered for the City of Costa Mesa, where our team gained firsthand understanding of local conditions, stakeholder expectations, and City procedures. This experience allows us to anticipate issues early, apply proven solutions, and maintain project momentum from notice to proceed through close-out.
Potential Issue Impact on Project Mitigation Strategy
Coordination
with Orange
Coast College
Campus events, pedestrian volumes,
and traffic could disrupt access.
Coordinate with College staff, track
events, and adjust phasing as needed.
Traffic Control
& Safety
Heavy vehicle, bike, and pedestrian
use may cause hazards if traffic
control is poor.
Daily inspections, enforce CA MUTCD,
and at Adams/Fairview add protected
right-turn, bike heads, and “No Turn on
Red.”
Federal
Compliance
Errors in DBE, Davis-Bacon, or
MAWA could risk funding.
Maintain audit-ready records, submit
LAPM forms, and correct plant factor for
crape myrtle (L-1.2).
199
Utility Conflicts Utility lines and new trees/irrigation may clash with work.
Early utility meetings, use GPR (Title
Sheet), potholing before planting (L-2.1
to L-2.2), and sequence
electrical/landscape removals.
Schedule &
Budget
90-day timeline could be delayed by
weather, COs, or disputes.
Weekly updates, recovery plans, and
bid clarifications: add demob/final
cleanup (P-1), use SF for Items 7–9 (P-
1), and include “missing bid items”
clause (P-3).
Community
Outreach
Noise, dust, and access issues may
cause complaints.
Review notices, give updates, and
relocate trees to keep Controller B rain
sensor clear (L-1.2).
Irrigation &

SCOPE OF SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED
Z&K will provide Construction Management, Inspection, and Materials Testing services to ensure the successful delivery of the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project. Our team will verify compliance with City, State, and Federal requirements, including Davis-Bacon wages, DBE participation, Buy America provisions, and Caltrans LAPM. The following scope outlines our approach to project delivery.
A. Initial-Construction Phase | Z&K will begin
with a thorough review of the PS&E package to
identify potential constructability issues. Our
Resident Engineer will initiate the project control
system, review stormwater and traffic control
plans, and assist the City with public outreach. We
will review the contractor’s baseline schedule,
submittals, and utility notifications. A pre-
construction meeting will be held to establish
communication protocols, labor provisions, and
EEO requirements.
B. Construction Phase | During active
construction, Z&K will provide full-time inspection
and contract administration. Inspectors will
document daily activities, enforce compliance with
plans, specifications, and labor provisions, and
verify bid quantities for progress payments. We will
process RFIs, submittals, change orders, and
claims; review CPM schedules and progress
updates; and ensure the contractor submits all
federal forms required under the LAPM (Exhibits 9-
J, 9-P, 16-Z1, 17 -F, 17-O, FHWA-1391, etc.).
Federal compliance, including DBE participa tion
and CUF evaluations, certified payroll checks,
employee interviews, and prompt payment
monitoring will be strictly enforced. Z&K will also
manage utility coordination, review erosion control
measures and BMPs, and oversee quality
assurance testing through Converse Consultants.
C. Community Coordination | We will serve as
the City’s representative to OCC and the
businesses, ensuring construction activities do not
disrupt special events or property access. Z&K will
review and confirm public notices, maintain
records of business coordination, and ensure
access is preserved at all times. Our staff will
document all outreach efforts and respond to
inquiries promptly to minimize community impacts.
D. Traffic Control and Safety | Our team will
review contractor-prepared traffic control plans
and verify implementation in accordance with the
CA MUTCD, project specifications, and Caltrans
standards. We will monitor lane closures and
detours daily. Inspectors will be trained and
equipped with appropriate PPE, OSHA-approved
vests, white hard hats, radios, and digital cameras.
All safety procedures will comply with City, State,
and Federal requirements, while recognizing the
contractor’s responsibility for construction means
and methods.
E. Post-Construction Phase | As construction
concludes, Z&K will prepare and consolidate
punch lists, verify corrective work, and oversee
final acceptance. We will manage the preparation
of record drawings and as-builts, finalize claims
and change orders, and submit the Report of
Expenditures Checklist along with all final Caltrans
and federal reimbursement forms. DBE reporting
will be completed with Exhibits 17-F and 17-O, and
compliance will be cross-checked against the
original DBE commitments. All project files and
records will be transmitted to the City for archiving.
Z&K staff will also be available to support audits
and claims resolution as needed.
F. Miscellaneous Equipment, Vehicles, and
Tools | Z&K inspectors will be equipped with
dedicated vehicles meeting OSHA and City
requirements, including amber warning lights, fire
extinguishers, spare tires, and lockable toolboxes.
All vehicles will be kept in safe and presentable
condition. Staff will also be equipped with City-
approved nuclear gauges, testing equipment,
radios, and personal protective equipment suitable
for the project environment. Digital cameras will be
used to document all field activities, with photos
bound and archived with daily reports.
Deliverables will include daily inspection reports, federal reimbursement documentation, photo documentation, weekly progress meeting minutes, CPM schedule reviews, payroll and DBE compliance records, punch lists, as-built drawings, and final project close-out documents, all prepared in accordance with City and Caltrans LAPM requirements. By delivering these services, Z&K will provide the City of Costa Mesa with complete Construction Management, Inspection, and Materials Testing support throughout every stage of the Adams Avenue Bicycle Facility Project.
