Meeting: September 17, 2024
Title: 2024 Conflict of Interest Code Biennial Update
Presented by: Fabian Velez, Chief Deputy City Clerk
Recommendation: Adopt Resolution CC 2024-85.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Under the Political Reform Act, all public agencies are required to adopt a conflict of interest code designating positions required to file Statement of Economic Interests (Form 700), and assigning disclosure categories specifying the types of interests to be reported. The Form 700 is a public document intended to inform public officials and members of the public about the types off financial interests that may create conflicts of interests.
The conflict of interest code must be reviewed every two years to determine if it is accurate and up-to-date, or if it needs to be amended. The Political Reform Act requires the 2024 Conflict of Interest Code Biennial Notice (Attachment A) to be filed with the agency’s code-reviewing body by October 1, 2024.
DISCUSSION:
In accordance with Government Code Section 87306.5, a review has been conducted of the City Conflict of Interest Code applicable to the City Council, the Successor Agency to the Covina redevelopment Agency, the Covina Public Financing Agency and the Covina Housing Authority.
On June 18, 2024, the 2024 Local Biennial Notice form was distributed to the Department Directors for Review.
Upon Review, it was determined that changes to the City’s current Conflict of Interest Code are necessary. It is therefore required that the City amend its Conflict of Interest Code to reflect its current structure. Deletions are noted by strike-through and additions are in boldface type in the current code (Attachment B) for City Council consideration. The following is a breakdown of each amendment:

Verification (to be completed if no amendment is required) This agency’s code accurately designates all positions that make or participate in the making of governmental decisions. The disclosure assigned to those positions accurately requires that all investments, business positions, interests in real property, and sources of income that may foreseeably be affected materially by the decisions made by those holding designated positions are reported. The code includes all other provisions required by Government Code Section 87302.

In November 2018, Measure W was passed by Los Angeles County voters. Also known as the Safe, Clean Water ballot measure, Measure W generates funding for the implementation of activities that increase storm water capture and reduce storm water pollution. The first annual parcel tax was collected by LA County for FY 2019-
20. Safe, Clean Water (SCW) Program funds are distributed by LA County as follows: Ten percent (10%) to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) to fund County-wide education programs as well as administration of the program; fifty percent (50%) to the nine watershed areas to fund regional multi-benefit projects; and forty percent (40%) to municipalities within the LACFCD. Out of the 40% due to municipalities, Covina’s share has been approximately $730,000 per year.
In order for LA County to disburse the 40% that is due to municipalities, each city must execute a Transfer Agreement with LACFCD. The existing Transfer Agreement between the City and LACFCD covered the first four years of the SCW Program. The proposed subsequent Transfer Agreement will cover the next four years, specifically FY 2024-25 through FY 2027-28.
Upon execution of the Transfer Agreement (Attachment A), LACFCD will annually disburse the City’s SCW Program payment. Based on the revenue collected from Covina parcels, it is anticipated the City should receive approximately $730,000 annually to offset storm water related expenses.
DISCUSSION:
The SCW Program collects a special parcel tax of 2.5 cents per square foot of impermeable surface areas on private property within the LACFCD.
SCW Program funds, in accordance with program guidelines, may be used by cities to offset allowable storm water pollution prevention expenditures. In addition, cities must file annual reports and annual plans, hold funds in a separate interest-bearing account, and conduct an audit every three years to be posted on the LACFCD’s publicly accessible website.
Since inception of the SCW Program, Covina has been able to use Program funds to pay for routine street sweeping, catch basin cleaning, storm water education and outreach, waterway testing, and related administration.
The SCW Program has also funded select capital improvements such as catch basin debris screens, and the installation of roadway bioswales to reduce urban runoff pollution.
Resolution CC 2024-84 (Attachment B) authorizes the City Manager to execute the Transfer Agreement between the City of Covina and the Los Angeles County Flood Control District for the Safe, Clean Water Municipal Program. Upon full execution of the Transfer Agreement, LA County will disperse the respective payments to the City for FY 2024-25 through FY 2027-28.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Execution of the proposed Transfer Agreement will allow the City of Covina to receive approximately $730,000 annually in available Safe, Clean Water Municipal Program funds from LA County’s Measure W. There are no impacts to the General Fund.
CEQA (CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT):
The action is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Respectfully submitted,

Agreement No.2024MP19
EXHIBIT C – NATURE BASED SOLUTIONS (NBS) BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Municipalities shall consider incorporation of Nature-based solutions (NBS) into their projects. NBS refers to the sustainable management and use of nature for undertaking socio-environmental challenges, including climate change, water security, water pollution, food security, human health, and disaster risk management. As this environmental management practice is increasingly incorporated into projects for the SCW Program, this guidance document may be expanded upon to further quantify NBS practices based on benefits derived from their incorporation on projects.
The SCW Program defines NBS as a Project that utilizes natural processes that slow, detain, infiltrate or filter Stormwater or Urban Runoff. These methods may include relying predominantly on soils and vegetation; increasing the permeability of Impermeable Areas; protecting undeveloped mountains and floodplains; creating and restoring riparian habitat and wetlands; creating rain gardens, bioswales, and parkway basins; enhancing soil through composting, mulching; and, planting trees and vegetation, with preference for native species. NBS may also be designed to provide additional benefits such as sequestering carbon, supporting biodiversity, providing shade, creating and enhancing parks and open space, and improving quality of life for surrounding communities. NBS include Projects that mimic natural processes, such as green streets, spreading grounds and planted areas with water storage capacity. NBS may capture stormwater to improve water quality, collect water for reuse or aquifer recharge, or to support vegetation growth utilizing natural processes.
Municipalities are to include in eachAnnual Progress/Expenditure Report whether and how their project achieves a good, better, or best for each of the 6 NBS methods in accordance with the guidance below. Additionally, Annual Progress/ Expenditure Reports should include discussion on any considerations taken to maximize the class within each method. If at least 3 methods score within a single class, the overall project can be characterized as that class.
Municipalities must attach a copy of the matrix for each project with the good, better, or best column indicated for each method, to facilitate District tracking of methods being utilized.

Title: Purchase Order Authorization – Purchase of New Trash Receptacles for City Parks Presented by: Rafael M. Fajardo, Interim Director of Public Works/City Engineer Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to approve a Purchase Order in the amount of $34,959.09 with TreeTop Products, LLC and purchase New Trash Receptacles for City Parks.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
In the continued effort to enhance public park spaces, the Department of Public Works is striving to standardize trash receptacles across all City Parks. During the FY 2024-25 Budget Process, monies from the City’s Environmental Services Fund were approved in the amount of $35,000 per annum over the next three (3) fiscal years to accomplish this task. For fiscal year 2024-25, City staff is proposing to order 54 new trash receptacles to replace units currently situated within Covina Park, Hollenbeck Park and Wingate Park.
DISCUSSION:
Based on recently installed trash receptacles at Banna Park that have proven durable, functional and appealing to the public, the Department of Public Works is planning to use the Banna Park trash receptacle (Attachment A) as a standard for all City Parks and will purchase additional units to replace existing trash receptacles upon City Council approval of a purchase order with TreeTop Products, LLC. Given available funding in FY 2024-25 for this project, City staff will be able to replace 54 antiquated trash receptacles at Covina Park, Hollenbeck Park and Wingate Park with plans to purchase additional replacement units in subsequent fiscal years to ensure all City Parks are eventually outfitted with new trash receptacles.
Informal quotes were obtained to procure new trash receptacles for City Parks and conveyed the following results:
Rank Company Name Location Amount
1 TreeTop Products, LLC Batavia, IL $34,959.09
2 Global Industrial Port Washington, NY $34,963.17
3 Uline Ontario, CA $36,720.00
TreeTop Products, LLC is a part of the Interlocal Purchasing System – Government Purchase Cooperative under TIPS Contract #230301. From this, the City’s formal bid process was not necessary in order to move forward with this purchase.
Upon review of the proposed quotes, City staff recommends that a purchase order be awarded to TreeTop Products, LLC. The City of Covina has previously utilized TreeTop Products, LLC for a variety of park supplies, equipment and recreational products in the past with excellent results.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding allocated for the purchase of new trash receptacles to be installed within City Parks was included in the Department of Public Works’ FY 2024-25 Operating Budget as follows:

Meeting: September 17, 2024
Title: Third Amendment to the Ground Lease between the City of Covina and the Covina Housing Authority for Property Owned by the City Located at the Southeast Corner of the Combined Parcels of 601 E. San Bernardino Road and 534 North Barranca Avenue Presented by: Brian K. Lee, AICP, Director of Community Development Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager/Executive Director to execute the third amendment to the Ground Lease (“Lease”) between the City of Covina (“City”), as landlord, and the Covina Housing Authority (“Authority”), as tenant, in substantially the form attached as Attachment “B” with such changes therein as the City Manager/Executive Director may approve, and all related documents, and to take such actions as they deem necessary or proper to effectuate the purpose of the Lease.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City owns certain property consisting of approximately 20,000 square-feet of land located at the southeast corner of the combined parcels of 601 E. San Bernardino Road and 534 N. Barranca Avenue, which is depicted in the Lease (Attachment “A”) as Exhibit “A” (“Property”). On June 21, 2022 the City Council and Housing Authority Board approved a Lease of the Property from the City to the Authority for a proposed future Navigation Center (“Center”). On December 5, 2023, this Lease was amended to extend certain deadlines within the Lease’s attachments in order to provide additional time for review and public feedback. On June 19, 2024, this Lease was amended to extend the rent repayment by five years, resulting in a total of 23 years of prepaid rent under the 55- year Lease. Exhibit “C” to the Lease is a Schedule of Performance, and is proposed to be amended in order to provide more time for due diligence and research to be completed prior to moving construction forward. At future meetings the Authority Board will consider all aspects of the design, construction, maintenance and operation of the proposed Center and involve public outreach and feedback.
DISCUSSION:
The Lease between the City as landlord and the Housing Authority as tenants ends 55 years after the commencement of the Lease. The Lease requires the Authority to pay rent to the City in the amount of $64,000 per year, payable monthly, and subject to annual 3% increases. The obligation to pay rent commences on the earlier of the date when a Navigation Center is completed or the deadline in the Lease for the completion of the Navigation Center, which is currently September 30, 2025, unless the deadline is extended in accordance with the Lease. The Housing Authority is formally requesting that the deadlines within the proposed amendment (“Attachment B”) be extended by amending the Lease in order to provide staff and Council additional time to convene and seek public feedback prior to any construction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Amending the existing Lease will not produce a financial impact. The financial obligations of the Lease remain unchanged.
CEQA (CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT):
The proposed action of authorizing the City Manager/Executive Director to execute the Lease amendment on behalf of the City and Authority is Categorically Exempt per Section 15332, Class 32, of the State of California
Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines because of any future considered development will be infill development consistent with the requirements set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15332. The proposed action is also exempt per CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) and because this is an administrative activity of government which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment.

AGENDA ITEM REPORT
ITEM NO. CC 7
Meeting: September 17, 2024
Title: Purchase of Five Vehicles for the Police Department Presented by: David Povero, Chief of Police
Recommendation: Approve the purchase of five (5) Dodge Durango and approve Resolution CC 2024-87 appropriating $73,624.01 for vehicle purchase and retrofit for the K-9 program.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The police department is requesting the purchase of five (5) 2025 Dodge Durangos (SUVs) from Elk Grove Auto in Elk Grove CA, in the total amount of $268,120.05 with taxes and fees included or $53,624.01 each. Three vehicles will be for the traffic Division, one for the replacement of P16 in patrol which was totaled after a traffic collision and one for the canine program.
DISCUSSION:
These new five vehicle will be assigned as follows.
Three vehicles will be purchased under the California Highway Patrol’s Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program (CTFGP). The department was awarded $427,120.68 earlier this year for use in traffic enforcement activities and the purchase of equipment and supplies. One vehicle will replace P16 which was involved in a traffic collision last year and was determined to be a total loss.
One vehicle will be assigned to the Canine unit and will be equipped as such for this particular detail.
Upon purchase of the vehicle the K-9 Foundation of Covina will reimburse the City of Covina for the full amount of the vehicle purchase at $53,624.01 and up to $20,000 retrofitting as a K-9 vehicle.
In order to evaluate the proposed purchase price for the vehicle, staff closely examined vehicle pricing, options and trim within Los Angeles and Orange Counties for SUV models traditionally used for patrol duties. In the last few years it has been nearly impossible to purchase police vehicles from Ford, Chevy and Dodge due to production delays and high demand for law enforcement vehicles. Covina is fortunate to have located these 2025 Dodges after a thorough search. After our review, we confirmed that the proposed purchase price is fair and roughly within 3% of market range.
Based on the reasonableness of these circumstances, it is requested that the City Council consider waiving competitive bid requirements per Municipal Code 2.20.080 Sections B. This section states that non-competitive proposals may be made only when at least one of the following circumstances applies: 1) The supply, service or equipment is available from only one source; 2) The public exigency or emergency for the supply, service or equipment will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation; and 3) After solicitation of a number of sources, competition is determined inadequate. Sections B2 & B3 apply in this situation. Staff did attempt to solicit bids from multiple dealerships, but no vehicles were available. The Police Department urgently needs vehicles and cannot wait months for availability as it will negatively impact operations.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The funds of four of the vehicles have been budgeted for the FY 2024-25 budget. The fifth vehicle is non-budgeted and therefore the police department is requesting an additional $53,624.01 for the purchase of the vehicle and $20,000 for the retrofit for a total of $73,624.01 to be paid from the unallocated general fund balance. This total amount will later be reimbursed by the K-9 Foundation of Covina as donation.

As part of the City’s Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program, the City Council approved the Badillo Street Water Services Replacement Project, which is comprised of the installation of two (2) 6-inch main laterals, four (4) commercial fire hydrants, and one (1) 4-inch service lateral manifold to six (6) 1-inch service lines along Badillo Street from Rimsdale Avenue to Lark Ellen Avenue.
Following a public bidding process, it has been determined that the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for the project is GRBCON, Inc. As such, it is recommended that a contract be awarded for the Badillo Street Water Services Replacement Project to GRBCON, Inc. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder in an amount not-to-exceed $379,581.20 and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract.
DISCUSSION:
The water main line on Badillo Street that lies between Rimsdale Avenue and Lark Ellen Avenue was installed circa 1950. The un-lined steel water main has been subject to a significant number of failures and the main line, galvanized services, old valves and hydrants have recently exceeded their useful life. The Badillo Street Water Services Replacement Project will ultimately provide high quality water service to Covina residents and businesses located within the project area for the foreseeable future.
A Notice Inviting Bids was published in the San Gabriel Valley Examiner on Thursday, August 26th & September 5 th
, 2024. Sealed bids were accepted in the Office of the City Clerk until 10:00 am on Tuesday, September 10, 2024. Beginning at 10:00 a.m. on September 10, 2024, the City Clerk publicly opened and read four (4) sealed bids with the following results:
RANK BIDDER LOCATION TOTAL BID AMOUNT
1 GRBCON, Inc. Baldwin Park, CA $379,581.20
2 Gentry Brothers, Inc. Irwindale, CA $402,096.00
3 Big Ben Engineering, Inc. Irvine, CA $431,750.00
4 Dominguez General
Engineering, Inc.
Pomona, CA $496,600.00
Staff has reviewed all bid documents for compliance and evaluated the contractors’ professional backgrounds and recently completed projects for competency. As a result, staff recommends a contract award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, GRBCON, Inc., given that this firm has completed numerous water main replacement projects for several public agencies in Southern California including Covina.
