Jimmy Chung, Public Works Director/ City Engineer
Recommended Action(s)
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Task Order No. 3 in the amount of $180,000 for an on-call consul+ng contract with Wallace & Associates for Inspec+on services for various Public Works and Land Development projects.

Summary
The Public Works Department is commi2ed to the maintenance and opera+on of the City of Eastvale’s infrastructure. This includes ensuring the safety and quality of: streets, sidewalks, traffic signals, street lights, traffic signs, and storm drain inlets. Through ini+a+ves such as the Capital Improvement Program, we ac+vely improve the City’s infrastructure. Our mission is to keep the ameni+es that make Eastvale a premiere loca+on to live and raise a family and to ensure that the needs of Eastvale residents are met and exceeded every single day.

The Engineering Division is responsible for the design and construc+on of private development and capital/public projects. The division collects development fees, processes permits, and provides inspec+ons for a variety of construc+on and non-construc+on ac+vi+es within the public right-of- way. The services we provide ensure compliance with City Codes and design standards. Public Works Inspec+on provides a broad spectrum of services related to Public Works ac+vi+es. These services include the inspec+on of all improvements above ground (street improvements, curbs, gu2ers, sidewalks, street lights, traffic signals, pavement striping, etc.) and underground (sewer, water and 12363 Limonite Avenue | Suite 910 | Eastvale, CA 91752 951.361.0900 |

With the upcoming increase in projects throughout the City including CIP Projects (such as the Slurry Seal, Chip-Seal, and Grind And Overlay asphalt projects), Land Development (including the Leal Property, Goodman, The Merge, The Vine, The Ontario Commerce Center, Vantage Point Church), and various permit projects, Public Works staff sees the need to temporarily increase the number of available inspectors to oversee these projects. Onwards inspec+on services include the ability to have inspectors on weekends, as well as during night work, which helps supplement our inspectors outside of normal work hours and is a valuable asset to the City and department.

Background
On April 13, 2022, the City Council awarded a Professional On-call Services contract to Wallace & Associates for inspec+on services (A2achment 1). The approval included awarding on-call inspec+on services contract to seven (7) consultants including Wallace & Associates. Wallace & Associates demonstrated both the experience and qualifica+ons that meet Eastvale's needs and expecta+ons during the compe++ve procurement process. They are able to provide the necessary inspec+on services immediately and the goal is for this contract to provide one inspector for approximately 6 months (1,000 hours) and other public works related services. An amendment was made to the contract for On-Call Professional Services (Attachment 2).

E. General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Contractor.

Contractor and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contractor:
(1) Contractor agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contractor also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do so likewise. (2) No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contractor, or Consultant’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regar dless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
(3) All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing 48 contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
(4) None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved in writing.
(5) No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or any contractor or subcontractor. (6) All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contractor shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. (7) Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contractor’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior t o the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due Contractor, at City option. (8) Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will “endeavor” (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. (9) It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contractor or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insur ance available to City.
(10) Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
(11) Contractor agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retention’s or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein except as disclosed to and approved by the City and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontract or, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this Agreement to self -insure its obligations to City. City expressly approves 49 maintenance by the Contractor of a $100,000 deductible on its current Professional Liability insurance policy.
(12) The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
(13) For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. (14) Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in t his or any other regard.
(15) Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this Agreement.

This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled or terminated for an y reason.

Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. (16) Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Contractor’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewi ng or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages.
(17). The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contractor under this Agreement. Contractor expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, offic ials and agents.
(18) Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given c overage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive.
(19) These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such.
(20). The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section.
50 (21) Contractor agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contractor for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
(22) Contractor agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor t he handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.

B-2. Local Conditions
The quantities of work or material stated in the unit price items of the Bidding Schedule are given only as a basis for the comparison of Bids, and the City does not represent or warrant that the actual amount of work or material will correspond therewith, but reserves the right to increase or decrease the quantity of any unit price item of the work as may be deemed necessary or expedient by the City Engineer or designated representative.

The Bidder shall examine carefully the site of the work contemplated and the Contract Documents. The submission of a proposal shall be conclusive evidence that the Bidder has investigated and is satisfied as to the conditions to be encountered, as to the character, quality and quantities of work to be performed and the materials to be furnished, and as to the requirements of the Contract Documents.

Where the City Engineer has made investigations of surface and subsurface conditions in areas where work is to be performed under the Agreement, or in other areas, some of which may constitute possible local material sources, such investigations were made only for the purpose of study and design.

When a log of test borings showing a record of the data obtained by the City Engineer’s investigation of the subsurface conditions is included with the drawings, it is expressly understood and agreed by bidder that the log of test borings does not constitute a part of the Agreement, represents only the opinion of the City Engineer as to the character of the materials 82 9

The availability or use of information described in this Section or the special conditions (Exhibit “C”) is not to be construed in any way as a waiver of the provisions of this Section and a bidder or Contractor is cautioned to make such an investigation and examination as it deems necessary to satisfy itself as to conditions to be encountered in the performance of the work and, with respect to possible local material sources, the quality and quantity of material available from such property and the type and extent of processing that may be required in order to produce material conforming to the requirements of the Specifications.

No information derived from such inspection of records of investigations or compilations thereof made by the City Engineer or its assistants will in any way relieve the bidder or Contractor from any risk or from properly fulfilling the terms of the Agreement.

Information derived from inspection of topographic maps, or from Plans showing location of utilities and structures will not in any way relieve the Contractor from any risk, or from properly examining the site and making such additional investigations as it may elect, or from properly fulfilling all the terms of the Agreement.

If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the bidders, any or all Bids may be rejected. Bids in which the price is obviously unbalanced may be rejected.

All bidders are put on notice that any collusive agreement fixing the prices to be bid so as to control or affect the awarding of this Contract is in violation of the competitive bidding requirements of the Public Contract Code and may render void any Contract let under such circumstances.

Additionally, the City may require evidence that the bidder has performed other work of comparable magnitude and type. The City expressly reserves the right to reject any Bid if it determines that the business and technical organization, equipment, financial and other resources or other experience of the bidder (including the bidder’s Subcontractors) is not sufficiently qualified for the work bid upon and, therefore, justifies such rejection.

The award of the Contract, if it is awarded, will be to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid. Within seven (7) days after the date of bid opening, the responsible bidder with the lowest, responsive bid shall deliver to the City, in a form acceptable to the City, a complete cost breakdown for the project herein bid.

The surety (or sureties) shall furnish reports as to its financial condition from time to time as requested by the City. The premiums for said Bonds shall be paid by the successful bidder.

These Bonds shall be furnished by companies who are authorized and licensed by the Insurance Commissioner as an “admitted surety insurer.” The surety shall provide the City with the documentation required by Section 995.660 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

If any surety becomes unacceptable to the City or fails to furnish reports as to its financial condition as requested by the City, the Contractor shall promptly furnish such additional security as may be required from time to time to protect the interests of the City and of persons supplying labor or materials in the prosecution of the work contemplated by this Contract.

In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Contract and the terms of the Bonds, the terms of the Contract shall control and the Bonds shall be deemed to be amended thereby.

Without limiting the foregoing, the City shall be entitled to exercise all rights granted to it by the Contract in the event of default, without control thereof by the surety, provided that the City gives the surety notice of such default at the time or before the exercise of any such right by the City, and, regardless of the terms of said Bonds, the exercise of any such right by the City shall in no manner affect the liability of the surety under said Bonds.

B-16. Substitution of Securities for Monies Withheld

Failure to do so shall be just cause for annulment of the award and for forfeiture of the Bid Bond which shall be retained as liquidated damages, and it is agreed that the bond sum is a fair estimate of the amount of 88 15

damages that the City will sustain by reason of such failure. The City will promptly determine whether such Contract, Bonds and insurance are as required by the Contract Documents, and upon such determination will forward a fully executed copy of the Contract and a Notice to Proceed with the work to the successful bidder. Signature by both parties constitutes execution of the Contract. In the event of failure of the lowest responsible bidder to sign and return the Contract with acceptable Bonds and insurance as prescribed herein, the City may award the Contract to the next lowest responsible bidder, and, in the event that bidder fails to sign and return the Contract with acceptable Bonds and insurance, the City may award the Contract to the then next lowest responsible bidder, etc.

B-18. Return of Bid Securities
All Bid Securities will be held until the Contract has been finally executed, after which all Bid Securities, other than any Securities which have been forfeited, will be returned to the respective bidders.

SECTION 11. SUBSTITUTIONS FOR CONTRACT RETENTIONS
In accordance with California Public Contract Code Section 22300, the City will permit the substitution of securities for any monies withheld by the City to ensure performance under the Contract.

41 SECTION 22. INSURANCE
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, Contractor will maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Contractor will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth here, Contractor agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so. Contractor acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds in excess of the limits and coverage required in this Agreement and which are applicable to a given loss, will be available to the City. Contractor shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:

A. Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office “Commercial General Liability” policy form CG 00 01 or the exact equivalent. Defense costs must be paid in addition to limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another. Limits are subject to review but in no event less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for all covered losses and no less than $2,000,000 general aggregate.

B. Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 including symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no event to be less than $1,000,000 per accident. If Contractor owns no vehicles, this requirement may be satisfied by a non -owned auto endorsement to the general liability policy described above. If Contractor or Contractor’s employees will use personal autos in any way on this project, Contractor shall provide evidence of personal auto liability coverage for each such person.

C. Workers Compensation on a state -approved policy form providing statutory benefits as required by law with employer’s liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or disease.

D. Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary) if used to meet limit requirements, shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages.

Any such coverage provided under an umbrella liability policy shall include a drop down provision providing primary coverage above a maximum $25,000 self -insured retention for liability not covered by primary but covered by the umbrella. Coverage shall be provided on a “pay on behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. Policy shall contain a provision obligating insurer at the time insured’s liability is determined, not requiring actual payment by the insured first. There shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another. Coverage shall be applicable to City for injury to employees of Contractor, subcontractors or others involved in the Work. The scope of coverage provided is subject to approval of City following receipt of proof of insurance as required herein. Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are admitted carriers in the State of California and with an A.M. Best rating of A or better and a minimum financial size VII.

E. General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Contractor.

Contractor and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contractor:
(1) Contractor agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees 115

42 and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992.

Contractor also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do so likewise. (2) No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contractor, or Consultant’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
(3) All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
(4) None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved in writing.
(5) No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so -called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or any contractor or subcontractor. (6) All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contractor shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. (7) Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contractor’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due Contractor, at City option.
(8) Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will “endeavor” (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. (9) It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contractor or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non -contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to City.
(10) Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor, provide 116

43 the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
(11) Contractor agrees not to self -insure or to use any self -insured retention’s or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein except as disclosed to and approved by the City and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this Agreement to self -insure its obligations to City. City expressly approves maintenance by the Contractor of a $100,000 deductible on its current Professional Liability insurance policy.
(12) The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
(13) For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. (14) Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contractor of non -compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
(15) Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.
(16) Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Contractor’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages. (17). The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contractor under this Agreement. Contractor expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials and agents.
(18) Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver 117

44 of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive.
(19) These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such.
(20). The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement, except Exhibit “D” “Modifications to Contract Documents”, to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section. (21) Contractor agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contractor for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. (22) Contractor agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.

A. Performance Bond. If specifically requested by City in the Bidding Documents, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, Contractor shall execute and provide to City concurrently with this Agreement a Performance Bond in the amount of the total, not -to- exceed compensation indicated in this Agreement, and in a form provided or approved by the City. If such bond is required, no payment will be made to Contractor until it has been received and approved by the City.

B. Payment Bond. If required by law or otherwise specifically requested by City in the Bidding Documents, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, Contractor shall execute and provide to City concurrently with this Agreement a Payment Bond in the amount of the total, not -to-exceed compensation indicated in this Agreement, and in a form provided or approved by the City.

In the event the surety or Contractor intends to reduce or cancel any required bond, at least thirty (30) days prior written notice shall be given to the City, and Contractor shall post acceptable replacement bonds at least ten (10) days prior to expiration of the original bonds. No f urther payments shall be deemed due or will be made under this Agreement until any replacement bonds required by this Section are accepted by the City. To the extent, if any, that the total compensation is increased in accordance with the Agreement, the Contractor shall, upon request of the City, cause the amount of the bonds to be increased accordingly and shall promptly deliver satisfactory evidence of such increase to the 118

45 City. To the extent available, the bonds shall further provide that no change or alteration of the Agreement (including, without limitation, an increase in the total compensation, as referred to above), extensions of time, or modifications of the time, terms, or conditions of payment to the Contractor, will release the surety. If the Contractor fails to furnish any required bond, the City may terminate this Agreement for cause.
