August 11, 2022
Executive Summary
Willdan is one of the most reputable On-Call Plan Review, Building Inspection, Fire Protection and Code Enforcement Services firms in California. We have worked with 90% of California cities and counties and are known as a firm that delivers high-quality services and staffing through our successful delivery model.
Our approach is personal, direct, and focused on our Customer First commitment. Many cities and counties have turned to us to meet their needs for over 58 years. Willdan is committed to delivering all requested services to the City’s satisfaction and to becoming a key performer on the team. Our strengths are detailed on the following pages – including how we meet or exceed the City’s Minimum Requirements.
Willdan takes no exceptions to the exact requirements imposed by the City’s RFP.
This Building and Safety Services proposal defines Willdan’s experience with plan review, inspection, fire protection permit technician and building official services. When it comes to serving the residents of the City of Eastvale community, Willdan sees our role as that of facilitator and guide—helping the City’s customers in getting through the review, permitting, and inspection process—rather than leaving the applicant in a bind in obtaining or approval of permits, while ensuring development complies with building codes and City standards. We understand that the process of complying with the various codes, standards, regulations and laws can be a formidable and daunting undertaking—for even the most seasoned design or construction professional. Furthermore, an understanding of the complexity associated with processing private development applications and the sometimes-competing interests is essential to exceptional customer service. Competing interests include, but are not limited to, creating a sense of place, achieving economic development objectives, ease of maintenance, and assuring the City will be as satisfied with the infrastructure on day one as 20 years from “day one.” Common sense decision making and technical analysis in interpreting the intent of regulatory guidelines are significant strengths Willdan staff brings to the City.
Our proven approach is based on years of experience and incorporates features enhancing the efficiency and quality of the following services:

We understand that time is of critical importance to the City and to the development community. We are dedicated to meeting normal and “expedited” turnaround deadlines. ▪ Customer Service – Our approach to user-friendly customer service specifically results in reduced number of plan review rechecks and has allowed us to meet the required plan check turnaround time standards of the City.

When it comes to serving the residents of the City of Eastvale community, Willdan sees our role as that of facilitator and guide—helping the City’s customers in getting through the review, permitting, and inspection process—rather than leaving the applicant in a bind in obtaining or approval of permits, while ensuring development complies with building codes and City standards. We understand that the process of complying with the various codes, standards, regulations and laws can be a formidable and daunting undertaking—for even the most seasoned design or construction professional. Furthermore, an understanding of the complexity associated with processing private development applications and the sometimes-competing interests is essential to exceptional customer service. Competing interests include, but are not limited to, creating a sense of place, achieving economic development objectives, ease of maintenance, and assuring the City will be as satisfied with the infrastructure on day one as 20 years from “day one.” Common sense decision making and technical analysis in interpreting the intent of regulatory guidelines are significant strengths Willdan staff brings to the City.
Our proven approach is based on years of experience and incorporates features enhancing the efficiency and quality of the following services:

Executive Summary
Willdan is one of the most reputable On-Call Plan Review, Building Inspection, Fire Protection and Code Enforcement Services firms in California. We have worked with 90% of California cities and counties and are known as a firm that delivers high-quality services and staffing through our successful delivery model.
Our approach is personal, direct, and focused on our Customer First commitment. Many cities and counties have turned to us to meet their needs for over 58 years. Willdan is committed to delivering all requested services to the City’s satisfaction and to becoming a key performer on the team. Our strengths are detailed on the following pages – including how we meet or exceed the City’s Minimum Requirements.
Willdan takes no exceptions to the exact requirements imposed by the City’s RFP.
This Building and Safety Services proposal defines Willdan’s experience with plan review, inspection, fire protection, permit technician and building official services. When it comes to serving the residents of the City of Eastvale community, Willdan sees our role as that of facilitator and guide—helping the City’s customers in getting through the review, permitting, and inspection process—rather than leaving the applicant in a bind in obtaining or approval of permits, while ensuring development complies with building codes and City standards. We understand that the process of complying with the various codes, standards, regulations and laws can be a formidable and daunting undertaking—for even the most seasoned design or construction professional. Furthermore, an understanding of the complexity associated with processing private development applications and the sometimes-competing interests is essential to exceptional customer service. Competing interests include, but are not limited to, creating a sense of place, achieving economic development objectives, ease of maintenance, and assuring the City will be as satisfied with the infrastructure on day one as 20 years from “day one.” Common sense decision making and technical analysis in interpreting the intent of regulatory guidelines are significant strengths Willdan staff brings to the City.
Our proven approach is based on years of experience and incorporates features enhancing the efficiency and quality of the following services:

Willdan Engineering is pleased to present this proposal to the City of Eastvale to provide on-call fire plan review and inspection services to the City. Willdan has been a consistent industry leader for more than 58 years providing all aspects of municipal and infrastructure engineering, including building and safety, fire protection, public works, public financing, planning, construction management, and code enforcement services.
While our exceptional services are presented in this response, listed below are reasons why Willdan is uniquely qualified to provide these services to the City of Eastvale. ▪ Demonstrated Competence – Willdan Engineering presently provides building and safety services to a vast number of jurisdictions throughout California. In this capacity, we provide a full range of services including Building Official services, building and safety plan review, permit issuance, inspection, fire protection, and code enforcement. Willdan provides similar services to local jurisdictions including City of Redlands, City of Sierra Madre, City of Highland, City of Manhattan Beach and other municipalities. We are familiar with the area and the expectation for quality customer service to the community and residents.
▪ Proximity to City Hall – Willdan's team will be managed and coordinated through our local San Bernardino office, approximately 30 miles from the City’s office – making Willdan conveniently located and responsive to the City’s requests.
▪ Electronic Plan Review – Willdan Engineering offers electronic plan review which reduces foot traffic at City Hall and significantly expedites review as well as reduces shipping and printing costs for the applicant while promoting a paperless environment at no additional cost to the City or permit applicants.
▪ Quick Turnaround Times. Willdan has a reputation of providing quality and accurate plan review in a timely manner. We understand that time is of critical importance to the City and to the development community. We are dedicated to meeting normal and “expedited” turnaround deadlines. ▪ Customer Service – Our approach to user-friendly customer service specifically results in reduced number of plan review rechecks and has allowed us to meet the required plan check turnaround time standards of the City. Likewise, the assignment of experienced building inspectors by Willdan results in accurate-time effective field building inspections.
▪ Full Service Provider – Willdan is a unique consultant with the ability to provide all services including Building & Safety, Fire Protection and Code Enforcement to the City under one project manager to oversee all services.

WORK PLAN
FIRE PLAN REVIEW
Willdan Engineering presently provides fire plan review and inspection services to a number of municipalities and jurisdictions throughout Southern, Central and Northern California. Willdan has gained a great deal of municipal insight and expertise in serving our extensive clientele over the years.
We have performed fire plan review and inspection on projects ranging from single family residential additions to complex high rise towers (including hotels and casinos), parking structures, medical facilities and industrial centers. Willdan's plans examiners are ICC certified plans examiners, licensed architects, and/or registered engineers.
Fire plans including suppression systems, ala rm systems, sprinkler systems and fire -life safety, will be reviewed in accordance with:
▪ Current adopted California Fire Code (CFC)
▪ Current adopted California Building Code (CBC) sections adopted by the California State Fire Marshal
▪ Local amendments and policies related to the CFC and CBC ▪ City code and standards
▪ Adopted National Fire Protection Standards
▪ California Health and Safety Code
▪ Appropriate listings
▪ Planning entitlements
Willdan will provide two complete typewritten plan check letters which outline the documents reviewed, instructions to the applicant regarding the processing of documents, and a listing of plan check comments. The plan check comments will refer to appropriate sheets, details or calculation pages and the code section of concern.
Comments shall specify the apparent code violation. At the City’s discretion, plan check comments, plans and documents will be returned directly to the designers until such time as plans are approved.
Willdan staff will pick up plans from the City and/or provide delivery service at no additional cost to the City. We will supply the City with plan bags and shipping labels as well as Willdan’s FedEx and GSO account numbers.
Our plan checkers will schedule meetings during work hours to discuss and clarify plan check issues with designers, owners and contractors. Resolutions of code issues may also be accomplished by telephone and/or email as well as scheduled meetings prior to resubmitting corrected plans and documents. We will respond to inquiries from applicants within one day.
ELECTRONIC PLAN REVIEW
Willdan has long had the ability to provide plan review services electronically, at no additional cost to the City or applicants. The many advantages of our “tree-saving” electronic plan review process includes the elimination of the need for additional computer software or hardware–only an Internet connection is necessary.
Electronic plan review services are provided at the request of the applicant or the agency we serve. Submittals are accepted in PDF format and reviewed in Bluebeam. Willdan will review plans and has the ability to transmit the redlined plans back to the applicant or designer via the website, along with the plan review comment sheet.

If and to the extent that City utilizes for any purpose not related to this Agreement any maps, models, designs, drawings, photographs, studies, surveys, reports, data, notes, computer files, files or other documents prepared, developed or discovered by Contractor in the course of providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement, Contractor’s guarantees and warranties in Section 9 “Standard of Performance” of this Agreement shall not extend to such use of the maps, models, designs, drawings, photographs, studies, surveys, reports, data, notes, computer files, files or other documents.
All final work product developed by Contractor in the course of providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement shall become the sole property of City and may be used, reused or otherwise disposed of by City without the permission of the Contractor. Upon completion, expiration or termination of this Agreement, Contractor shall turn over to City all such final work product if paid for by the City. This provision specifically excludes Contractors’ work notes and drafts, which are owned by Contractor, not City.
SECTION 7. CONTRACTOR'S BOOKS AND RECORDS.
(a) Contractor shall maintain any and all documents and records demonstrating or relating to Contractor’s performance of the Services. Contractor shall maintain any and all ledgers, books of account, invoices, vouchers, canceled checks, or other documents or records evidencing or relating to work, services, expenditures and disbursements charged to City pursuant to this Agreement. Any and all such documents or records shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting 656
- 4 -
principles and shall be sufficiently complete and detailed so as to permit an accurate evaluation of the services provided by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement. Any and all such documents or records shall be maintained for three (3) years from the date of execution of this Agreement and to the extent required by laws relating to audits of public agencies and their expenditures. In accordance with California Government Code Section 8546.7, if the total compensation in Section 4 exceeds ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00), this Agreement and the Contractor's books and records related to this Agreement shall be subject to the examination and audit of the State Auditor, at the request of City or as part of any audit of the City, for a period of three (3) years after final payment under the Agreement.
(b) Any and all records or documents required to be maintained pursuant to this section shall be made available for inspection, audit and copying, at any time during regular business hours, upon request by City or its designated representative. Copies of such documents or records shall be provided directly to the City for inspection, audit and copying when it is practical to do so; otherwise, unless an alternative is mutually agreed upon, such documents and records shall be made available at Contractor’s address indicated for receipt of notices in this Agreement.
(c) Where City has reason to believe that any of the documents or records required to be maintained pursuant to this section may be lost or discarded due to dissolution or termination of Contractor’s business, City may, by written request, require that custody of such documents or records be given to the City. Access to such documents and records shall be granted to City, as well as to its successors-in-interest and authorized representatives.
SECTION 8. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR.
(a) Contractor is and shall at all times remain a wholly independent contractor and not an officer, employee or agent of City. Contractor shall have no authority to bind City in any manner, nor to incur any obligation, debt or liability of any kind on behalf of or against City, whether by contract or otherwise, unless such authority is expressly conferred under this Agreement or is otherwise expressly conferred in writing by City. (b) The personnel performing the Services under this Agreement on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Contractor’s exclusive direction and control. Neither City, nor any elected or appointed boards, officers, officials, employees or agents of City, shall have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, or agents except as set forth in this Agreement. Contractor shall not at any time or in any manner represent that Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, or agents are in any manner officials, officers, employees or agents of City. (c) Neither Contractor, nor any of Contractor’s officers, employees, agents or subcontractors shall obtain any rights to retirement, health care or any other benefits which may otherwise accrue to City’s employees. Contractor expressly waives any claim Contractor, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, may have to any such rights. Contractor’s indemnity obligations in Section 16 “Indemnification” of this Agreement include the obligation to indemnify the City from and against any liability that 657
- 5 -
may arise related to claims that Contractor, or its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, are entitled to retirement, health care or any other benefits that accrue to City employees. This provision shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
SECTION 9. STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE.
Contractor represents and warrants that it has the qualifications, experience and facilities necessary to properly perform the Services required under this Agreement in a thorough, competent and professional manner. Contractor shall at all times faithfully, competently and to the best of its ability, experience and talent, perform all Services. In meeting its obligations under this Agreement, Contractor shall employ, at a minimum, generally accepted standards and practices utilized by persons engaged in providing services similar to the Services required of Contractor under this Agreement. In addition to the general standards of performance set forth this section, additional specific standards of performance and performance criteria may be set forth in Task Orders attached hereto in Exhibit “A” that shall also be applicable to Contractor’s work under this Agreement. Where there is a conflict between a general and a specific standard of performance or performance criteria, the specific standard or criteria shall prevail over the general.
SECTION 10. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS; PERMITS AND LICENSES.
Contractor shall keep itself informed of and comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws, statutes, codes, ordinances, regulations and rules in effect during the term of this Agreement. Contractor shall obtain any and all licenses, permits and authorizations necessary to perform the Services set forth in this Agreement.

Contractor hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C.A. §§ 1101, et seq., as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Contractor so employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of the Services, and should the any liability or sanctions be imposed against City for such use of unauthorized aliens, Contractor hereby agrees to and shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with any and all costs, including attorneys' fees, incurred by City.
SECTION 14. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST.
(a) Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Contractor’s performance of the Services. Contractor further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor without the express written consent of the City Manager. Contractor agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of City in the performance of this Agreement. (b) City understands and acknowledges that Contractor is, as of the date of execution of this Agreement, independently involved in the performance of non-related services for other governmental agencies and private parties. Contractor is unaware of any stated position of City relative to such projects. Any future position of City on such projects shall not be considered a conflict of interest for purposes of this section. (c) City understands and acknowledges that Contractor will perform non- related services for other governmental agencies and private Parties following the completion of the Services under this Agreement. Any such future service shall not be considered a conflict of interest for purposes of this section.
SECTION 15. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION; RELEASE OF INFORMATION. (a) All information gained or work product produced by Contractor in performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential, unless such information is in the public domain or already known to Contractor. Contractor shall not release or disclose any such information or work product to persons or entities other than City without prior written authorization from the City Manager, except as may be required by law.
(b) Contractor, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, shall not, without prior written authorization from the City Manager or unless requested by the City Attorney of City, voluntarily provide declarations, letters of support, testimony at depositions, response to interrogatories or other information concerning the work performed under this Agreement.

- 7 -
considered "voluntary" provided Contractor gives City notice of such court order or subpoena.
(c) If Contractor, or any officer, employee, agent or subcontractor of Contractor, provides any information or work product in violation of this Agreement, then City shall have the right to reimbursement and indemnity from Contractor for any damages, costs and fees, including attorney's fees, caused by or incurred as a result of Contractor’s conduct.
Contractor shall promptly notify City should Contractor, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, be served with any summons, complaint, subpoena, notice of deposition, request for documents, interrogatories, request for admissions or other discovery request, court order or subpoena from any party regarding this Agreement and the work performed thereunder. City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Contractor or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding. Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response. Contractor shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any Federal or State trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in confidence to a Federal, State, or local government official or to an attorney solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law or for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.
SECTION 16. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Indemnification for Professional Liability. Where the law establishes a professional standard of care for Contractor’s services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorneys’ fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees) arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission of Contractor, or by any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of Contractor, in the performance of professional services under this Agreement. (b) Indemnification for Other than Professional Liability. Other than in the performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City, and any and all of its employees, officials and agents from and against any liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorneys’ fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees), where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in 660
- 8 -
whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Contractor, or by any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of Contractor.
(c) Indemnification from Subcontractors. Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this section from each and every subcontractor or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Contractor in the performance of this Agreement naming the Indemnified Parties as additional indemnitees. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required herein, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of Contractor and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section.
(d) City’s Negligence. The provisions of this section do not apply to claims occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence. The provisions of this section shall not release City from liability arising from gross negligence or willful acts or omissions of City or any and all of its officials, employees and agents.
SECTION 17. INSURANCE.
Contractor agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement the insurance policies set forth in Exhibit “B” “Insurance” and made a part of this Agreement. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by City as to form and content. These requirements are subject to amendment or waiver if so approved in writing by the City Manager. Contractor agrees to provide City with copies of required policies upon request.
SECTION 18. ASSIGNMENT.
The expertise and experience of Contractor are material considerations for this Agreement. City has an interest in the qualifications and capability of the persons and entities who will fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Contractor under this Agreement. In recognition of that interest, Contractor shall not assign or transfer this Agreement or any portion of this Agreement or the performance of any of Contractor’s duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the City.
Any attempted assignment shall be ineffective, null and void, and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement entitling City to any and all remedies at law or in equity, including termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 20 “Termination of Agreement.” City acknowledges, however, that Contractor, in the performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement, may utilize subcontractors.
SECTION 19. CONTINUITY OF PERSONNEL.
Contractor shall make every reasonable effort to maintain the stability and continuity of Contractor’s staff and subcontractors, if any, assigned to perform the Services. Contractor shall notify City of any changes in Contractor’s staff and 661

SECTION 21. DEFAULT.
In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under Section 20 “Termination of Agreement.” Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
SECTION 22. EXCUSABLE DELAYS.
Contractor shall not be liable for damages, including liquidated damages, if any, caused by delay in performance or failure to perform due to causes beyond the control of Contractor.

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
City Council Meeting
CONSENT CALENDAR
Agenda Item No. 10.11
December 14, 2022
Approval of First Amendment to JPW Communica,ons’ On-Call Agreement
Prepared By:
Alexander Fung, Senior Management Analyst
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the First Amendment to the City’s On-Call Agreement with JPW Communications, LLC.
Summary
The City of Eastvale and JPW Communica(ons entered in an agreement for communica(ons and videography services in February 2021. The approved Agreement allowed the City to execute Task Orders to receive professional services from JPW Communica(ons for up to $200,000.00 per fiscal year, with half of the threshold allocated for communica(ons services and the remaining half allocated for videography services.
The proposed Amendment addresses multiple issues:
The previous executed Agreement omi2ed “per fiscal year” in the language. This Amendment would correct the typographical error.
The proposed Amendment removes the $100,000.00 alloca(on threshold for videography services and the $100,000.00 alloca(on threshold for communica(ons services. Staff proposes to incorporate this change given that the City predominantly u(lizes communica(ons services as opposed to videography services.
Given that JPW had eleven simultaneous task orders with the City, a duplicate of the Agreement dated September 23, 2020 was processed. The proposed Amendment would terminate the duplicate agreement and replace all references to the September 23, 2020 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |
eastvaleca.gov
671
agreement in previously-approved Task Orders with the Agreement dated February 10, 2021.
On August 25, 2021, the City Council approved a one-(me increase for the City to execute Task Orders with JPW Communica(ons for up to $150,000.00 in communica(on services in FY 2021-2022. The First Amendment would memorialize this authorization in the Agreement.
Background
JPW Communica(ons completed strategic planning ini(a(ves, website development projects, outreach material design efforts, and video edi(ng ac(vi(es in Task Orders A-1 to A-11. A2achment 1 includes previous on-call agreements with JPW Communications.
Environmental
The proposed Amendment is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As a result, no environmental review efforts are required.
Strategic Plan Action - Priority Level: 1
| Target #: 2
| Goal #: 1
The services that are provided by JPW Communica(on support and contribute to the development of the City’s Downtown Eastvale, which can a2ract businesses and retailers to establish their presence in the City and create a “Destination Eastvale” with high-quality and unique businesses.
Fiscal Impact
There are no direct fiscal impacts that would result from the execu(on of the proposed Amendment.
Prior City Council/Commission Action
The City Council approved several task orders with JPW Communica(ons. On August 25, 2021, the City Council approved Task Order A-3 in the amount of $55,550.00 for economic development communica(ons support, Task Order A-4 in the amount of $31,205.00 for Housing Element/Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) community engagement support, and Task Order A-5 in the amount of $12,700.00 for communica(ons support regarding the League of California Ci(es’ proposed resolu(on related to online sales tax revenue disbursement.
