The Utilities Department recommends that the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11614 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 4 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173 -21 14-092) with Water Works Engineer s, LLC for $49,823 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) for Fixed Network and Water C onsumption Database As -Needed Support.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
Since 2014, Water Works Engineers, LLC (Water Works) has provided support to the City of Folsom on an as-needed basis, with ongoing development and modifications to its fixed network and water meter database (WMDB). Water Works has assisted the City with monthly data transfer to the WMDB from Badger meters installed south of Highway 50, and from the fixed network system north of Highway 50 administered mostly by Zenner. Water Works has also helped improve workflow through developing an automated process for transferring meter data from the WMDB to the billing software.
The scope of work for Amendment No. 3, executed in January 2025 is nearing completion and the City desires to execute an amendment to the agreement with Water Works for continued support .
As with any equipment or operations system, the City’s fixed network system and water consumption database requires maintenance and upgrades to be compatible with the water facility’s system improvements, technology upgrades and general operational requirements.
06/09/2026 Item No.2.
2 Water Works Engineers, LLC has the expertise for continuing this support. As the water meter database is critical in facilitating accurate, timely billing, water conservation and maintenance of the meter infrastructure, the City would like a comprehensive and updated documentation effort of the system which has evolved since its inception based on as-needed changes.
This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 14-092) with Water Works Engineers, LLC for Fixed Network and Water Consumption Database As-Needed Support.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
Fixed network systems have complex software and hardware components that require management and modifications periodically. These upgrades and modifications require specially trained personnel to perform these functions. Rather than hire additional staff t o perform these periodic specialty functions, the City proposes to continue to use Water Works Engineers, LLC for this as- needed support.
In order to maintain the fixed network system and provide the necessary expertise, Water Works Engineers, LLC will provide the following services:
Review, update and documentation of WMDB programming. On-call technical support related to the Zenner and Badger fixed network systems and the WMDB.
The Utilities Department recommends amending the current agreement with Water Works Engineers, LLC. The amendment will allow Water Works to continue providing as-needed support for two more years and be in the amount of $49,823 increasing the total contract not -to-exceed amount to $231,771.
This resolution will authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 14-092) with Water Works Engineers, LLC for Fixed Network and Water Consumption Database As-Needed Support.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
In August 2014, the City executed an agreement with Water Works Engineers, LLC for Fixed Network and Water Consumption Database As -Needed Support for a total amount not to exceed $38,900.

Background
Water Works has continued to support the City of Fo lsom on an as- needed basis with ongoing development and modificat ions to its fixed network water meter data collection and billing sys tem. The previous scope of work dating back to 2024 (Amendment 3 - XP 2651) is nearing completion and the City desires to execute a new co ntract for ongoing support. The City has a fixed network system on the North side of Route 50 that is administrated mostly by Zenner. With th e new development South of Route 50, the City has begun utilizing Bad ger Meters and Badger’s Beacon Web Services to host this data, whi ch is separate from Zenner. The City is also slowly replacing Zenner m eters with Badger Meters when their batteries die. The City’s water meter database currently intakes data from both data sources and a cts as the City’s main interface for viewing and utilizing all data.
Within the previous scope of work, Water Works and Rob Talavera completed the following updates to the system:
Supported transition from DropCountr to Badger Eye On Water for customer facing water meter data viewing
Developed automated process for transferring WMSO d ata from Water Meter Database to Central Square

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11615 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Electric Vehic le
Conversions, LLC in the Amount of $240,400.56 from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for the Purchase of an Electric Flatbed Vehicle and Apply for Hybrid and Zero-Emiss ion Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) Funding
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends that the City C ouncil pass and adopt Resolution No. 11615 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager t o Execute an Agreement with Electric Vehicle Conversions, LLC in the Amount of $240,400. 56 from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for the Purchase of an Electric Fla tbed Vehicle and Apply for Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) Funding.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Folsom 2035 General Plan, adopted by the City C ouncil, establishes a clear goal of reducing the city’s consumption of carbon-intensive fuels. In 2025, operations at the City of Folsom corporation yard utilized approximately 250, 000 gallons of diesel fuel. This demand comes from medium- and heavy-duty work vehicles use d across the city’s field operations, however approximately 90% is associated with waste collection activities. As operational needs continue to grow, diesel fuel consumption has increased correspondingly.
Diesel powered vehicles contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and expose the community to harmful exhaust pollutants. Transition ing portions of the municipal fleet to electric alternatives offers the potential for subs tantial emissions reductions, reduced noise,
06/09/2026 Item No.3.
2 and lower long-term operating costs. While the upfront cost of an electric work truck exceeds that of a diesel equivalent, electric platforms typ ically provide lower maintenance and fuel costs over the life of the vehicle.
To evaluate the operational feasibility of electric vehicles within the Utilities department, and to maintain compliance with California Air Resource s Board (CARB) fleet electrification requirements, staff is seeking authorization to purchase one electric flatbed truck from Electric Vehicle Conversions, LLC, DBA Electric Vehicle Choice (EVC).
Understanding the capabilities and limitations of e lectric technology in daily field operations is necessary for future fleet planning and regulato ry compliance. CARB regulations require a progressive increase in the share of medium-duty electric vehicle sales in California, including
Class 4–5 trucks such as the proposed flatbed. Manu facturers must meet increasing zero- emission sales targets through 2035. Deploying this technology incrementally where practical uses are identified will position the City of Folsom for smoother long-term transition and more informed capital planning.
Available funding through the Hybrid and Zero-Emiss ion Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) provides incentives to offset the co st of purchasing zero-emission vehicles.
This funding program is currently available to supp ort public agencies transitioning to zero emission fleets, and the Utilities department conti nues to pursue all eligible opportunities to reduce city costs. Funding availability varies by v ehicle type, manufacturer, and duty cycle.
Staff has identified an applicable program for this purchase, and the vendor will apply on behalf of the city for eligible incentives upon Council authorization.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code state s, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estim ated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
Section 2.36.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code permits cooperative purchasing agreements for the procurement of any supplies, equipment, service, or construction with one or more public procurement units in accordance with an agreement entered into or between the participants.
2035 General Plan Natural and Cultural Resources Goal 3.2.2. – Reduce municipal greenhouse gas emissions by 15 percent below 2005 baseline levels by 2020, and further reduce municipal emissions by:
40 percent below the 2020 target by 2030;
51 percent below the 2020 target by 2040, and
80 percent below the 2020 target by 2050
ANALYSIS
06/09/2026 Item No.3.
3 Staff has evaluated the operational needs of the ci ty’s fleet and determined that the proposed electric flatbed truck represents an appropriate ad dition to the Waste and Recycling division fleet. The proposed vehicle, manufactured by Rizon and procured through Electric Vehicle Conversions, LLC, meets current service demands whi le advancing the city’s broader goals related to sustainability, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency.
EVC specializes in the conversion and configuration of existing truck chassis into fully electric platforms. The proposed electric flatbed truck will be used to support Waste and Recycling operations by collecting bulky waste like appliances and tires from City of Folsom residents.
The vehicle will be equipped with a lift gate and t ilt bed, maintaining all critical functionality of the Waste and Recycling division’s other flatbed while improving usability and safety for staff. Additionally, the proposed unit features a l arger bed capacity, which will enhance productivity by allowing crews to transport more ma terials and equipment per trip, reducing the need for multiple trips and improving overall efficiency.
From a performance standpoint, electric medium-duty trucks such as the Rizon flatbed are designed for predictable, route-based municipal operations. The Waste and Recycling division uses local travel, routine stop and go activity, an d local operations which align well with the capabilities of electric vehicle technology. This makes the proposed unit a practical and reliable fleet expansion for operations that are currently c ompleted using only internal combustion engine vehicles.
The transition to an electric flatbed also provides significant environmental and regulatory benefits. Adoption of zero emission vehicles supports the State of California’s ongoing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and aligns with regulatory frameworks such as the Advanced Clean Fleets requirements. Early adoption positions the city to remain compliant with evolving mandates while avoiding potential future procurement constraints.
Financially, the request for HVIP funding significantly improves the cost-effectiveness of this purchase. HVIP incentives help offset the higher upfront cost associated with electric vehicles, narrowing the gap between traditional and zero-emission technologies. In addition, the electric vehicle is expected to reduce long-term operating costs through lower fuel expenses, decreased maintenance requirements, and reduced wear on braking systems due to regenerative braking.
Maintaining control over fleet assets and transitio ning to zero-emission technology supports the city’s ability to continue delivering essential services reliably and efficiently. The proposed electric flatbed ensures continuity of operations w hile modernizing the fleet with equipment that is cleaner, quieter, and better aligned with t he city’s long-term service and sustainability objectives.
Sourcewell is a national cooperative purchasing ent ity of which the City of Folsom is a member. The city has purchased numerous items throu gh Sourcewell. EVC has a current contract with Sourcewell for electric flatbed trucks at a price that has been assessed to be fair,
06/09/2026 Item No.3.
4 reasonable, and competitive. Sourcewell contract nu mber #032824 ELV will be utilized for the purchase of the electric flatbed truck.
EVC is also an HVIP approved dealer. EVC will seek a voucher in the amount of $60,000 to support this purchase. HVIP vouchers are received directly by the vendor and if approved will reduce the amount of the invoice received by the ci ty. Should the city secure HVIP funding, funding will directly reduce the total purchase cost to minimize Enterprise Fund impacts.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for the purchase for a total of $24 0,400.56. If HVIP funding of $60,000 is awarded, it will apply to the purchase price when t he vehicle is ordered so the net purchase price would be $180,400.56.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11617 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute up to Three One-Year Extensions to the Agreement with the County of Sacramento for a Not to Exceed Annual Cost of $50,000 from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program Services to Folsom Residents at Sacramento County Owned Facilities
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11617 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute up to Three One -Year Extensions to the Agreement with the County of Sacramento for a Not to Exceed Annual Cost of $50,000 from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program Services to Folsom Residents at Sacramento County Owned Facilities.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939) required each jurisdiction in California to provide a Household Hazardous Waste Element defining programs they would provide to residents for the safe collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of household hazardous waste (HHW). The City of Folsom complies with these regulations through a variety of programs, one of which is making the County of Sacramento (County) HHW facilities available for Folsom residents to use at no cost to the resident. Access to County facilities compliments the c ity run door-to-door collection and drop- off programs by providing disposal options that are not appointment based and are available on weekends.
06/09/2026 Item No.5.
2 The County household hazardous waste collection facilities are located at Kiefer Landfill in Sloughhouse, California, and North Area Recovery Station (NARS) in North Highlands, California. Folsom residents are permitted to use both facilities. Kiefer Landf ill is conveniently located just 13 miles from the center of Folsom; however, the NARS facility accepts a wider range of materials, providing an expanded service for those who need it.
The city has been contracting to reimburse the County for HHW accepted from Folsom residents since 2010. The current agreement was approved by Folsom City Council on April 12, 2022, by Resolution No. 10834. The cost structure is based on recovery of actual costs incurred and includes labor, materials, transportation, and disposal. An administrative fee is charged per load and includes the cost of verifying the origin of the material. A per item fee captures costs that are associated with the specific material being delivered. Fees are evaluated and updated annually on July 1.
The initial term of the current agreement with Sacramento County expires on June 30, 2026, however, it includes the option of three (3) extensions of one (1) year each upon mutual agreement of the parties. The County has expressed interest in continuing this partnership beyond the initial term.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
Chapter 5.04, Purchasing and Contracting, of the Folsom City Charter includes in part, a provision for procurement and services and joint contracts with or through other government jurisdictions.
ANALYSIS
The City of Folsom is required to provide access to environmentally responsible options for residents to dispose of Household Hazardous Waste. Maintaining a robust program with a variety of convenient options minimizes liability related to illegally disposed of hazardous waste , including fire, injury, and harm to the environment. The County HHW facilities are an integral part of ensuring residents have adequate resources for safe HHW disposal.
Currently about 400 Folsom residents per year are using a County facility to dispose of household hazardous waste. This represents roughly 8% of the total residential loads per year from the County, door-to-door, and c ity drop-off programs combined. While only a small portion of the city’s total program, the County program compliments the other resources to ensure all residents have a convenient way to dispose of HHW . Considering the County provides these services at cost, the program contribution to the city’s regulatory compliance, and the mitigation of potential harm to life, the environment, and property from illegal disposal of hazardous materials , the Utilities Department recommends continuing the partnership with the County by executing available extensions each year that these benefits persist.
06/09/2026 Item No.5.
3 In Fiscal Year 20 25-26 the Waste and Recycling Division is projected to spend approximately $19,000 on services associated with this contract. Over the next three years, if the current trends continue, the division estimates spending an average of approximately $35,000 per year, however, the maximum financial impact permitted within the contract terms is $50,000. Total costs, up to the maximum, will ultimately depend on the number of residents using this program and the amount of waste dropped off at County facilities.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If approved, the agreement for Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program Services would authorize up to three one-year extensions with the County of Sacramento in an annual amount not to exceed $50,000. Funding for the agreement would be provided through the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540). Sufficient funds are available to support the agreement costs and will be requested annually through the City’s operating budget process.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11618 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute up to Two One-Year Extensions to the Agreement with the County of Sacramento for an Estimated Annual Cost of $2.6 Million from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for Reduced Tipping Fees for Municipal Solid Waste Disposal at Kiefer Landfill
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11618 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute up to Two One-Year Extensions to the Agreement with the County of Sacramento for an Estimated Annual Cost of $2.6 Million from the Solid Waste Operating Fund (Fund 540) for Reduced T ipping Fees for Municipal Solid Waste Disposal at Kiefer Landfill.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The County of Sacramento (County) provides discount ed tipping fees for haulers who commit to disposing of a minimum amount of solid waste at a C ounty facility each year. The city has been party to reduced tipping fee agreements with the County since 2007 for the disposal of municipal solid waste at Kiefer Landfill.
The current agreement, authorized by Folsom City Co uncil on April 12, 2022, by Resolution No. 10833, will expire on June 30, 2026, unless extende d. The original term allows two (2) mutually agreed upon one (1) year extensions and the County has expressed interest in extending the agreement.
POLICY / RULE
06/09/2026 Item No.6.
2 Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code state s, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estim ated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
Chapter 5.04, Purchasing and Contracting, of the Folsom City Charter includes in part, a provision for procurement and services and joint contracts with or through other government jurisdictions.
ANALYSIS
The City of Folsom requires a location to dispose of municipal solid waste collected from residents and businesses. Kiefer Landfill offers reduced tipping fees and is closer to the City of Folsom than any other disposal facility, reducing both the cost of labor and fuel to transport waste material relative to other potential options.
Reduced rates are available in four tiers based on the total waste delivered annually. The city’s waste disposal is projected to be in tier two for t he duration of this agreement, which is a commitment to deliver between 25,000 and 49,999 tons of waste each fiscal year. The most recent five-year average disposal is 39,500 tons per year. Tons disposed was 38,800 in calendar year 2022 and have gradually increased to a projected 40,800 in 2026. By the final year of the agreement, the division estimates we will dispose of approximately 42,300 tons. Nearly 100% of the material delivered qualifies for a tier two discount of $3.00 per ton saving the city approximately $127,000 compared to the public rates.
The discount provided to the city primarily benefit s the Waste and Recycling division; however, the division has collaborated with other city opera tions to ensure they are also able to dispose of waste utilizing this account. Currently other city divisions are receiving about $2,000 per year in discounts, with the majority of this being the Streets division.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
In Fiscal Year 2025–26, the Waste and Recycling div ision is projected to spend $2.4 million on waste disposal at Kiefer Landfill, reflecting disco unted tipping fees under the current agreement.
Tipping fees are set by the County Board of Supervi sors and are charged per ton, increasing annually by 3%. At the same time, waste generation from residential and commercial sources is rising by approximately 1.8% per year.
If these trends continue, disposal costs are expected to reach about $2.6 million in the final year of the agreement. The agreement provides a $3.00 per-ton discount on all waste delivered. However, total costs will ultimately depend on the volume of municipal solid waste generated by residents and businesses. Funds are available in the Solid Waste Fund (Fund 540) and will be budgeted for each fiscal year.

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11619 - A Resolution Amending Resolution No. 11594 to include the City’s Funding Commitment of $150,000 from the Water Impact Fund (Fund 456) for a United States Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART Small-Scale Water Use
Efficiency Program Grant
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11619 - A Resolution Amending Resolution No. 11594 to include the City’s Funding Commitment of $150,000 from the Water Impact Fee Fund (Fund 456) for a United States Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART Small-Scale Water Use Efficiency Program Grant.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The United States Department of the Interior’s WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America’s Resources for Tomorrow) Program provides a framework for Federal leadership and assistance to stretch and secure water supplies for future generations in support of the Department’s priorities.
Through WaterSMART, the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) leverages Federal and non - Federal funding to work cooperatively with states, tribes, and local entities as they plan for and implement actions to increase water supply reliability through investments in existing infrastructure and attention to local water conflicts. Reclamation issued Funding Opportunity Number R25AS00279 to make funding available for small-scale water efficiency projects.
The goal of the WaterSMART Small -Scale Water Efficiency Projects NOFO is to invite eligible entities to apply for funding to implement projects that conserve water and enhance water supply reliability in water delivery systems. It encourages the implementa tion of small- scale projects identified through prior planning efforts, such as canal lining, water delivery automation, flow measurement, and other projects that increase water efficiency. The WaterSMART Small -Scale

The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11619 - A Resolution Amending Resolution No. 11594 to include the City’s Funding Commitment of $150,000 from the Water Impact Fund (Fund 456) for a United States Bureau of Reclamation WaterSMART Small-Scale Water Use Efficiency Program Grant.
POLICY / RULE
The City of Folsom’s financial policy requires that the City Council approve grant applications that require an ongoing commitment of resources or staff. No additional staff are required for the projects included within the grant application.
ANALYSIS
On April 28, 2026, City Council approved Resolution No.11594 to submit a grant proposal for a WaterSMART Small-Scale Water Efficiency Project. After discussions with the City’s Federal Lobbyist team and with Reclamation staff responsible for reviewing grant applications, there is one additional item required for the City’s Resolution. As part of the grant application process, an official Resolution is required to be submitted in the application that identifies the City’s funding match requirement. The updated Resolution No. 11619 includes a recital that the City will provide the correct amount of funding specified in the City’s funding plan within the grant application and specifies the City’s fund to be used for the project. The attached Resolution No. 11619 includes this language, which was not included in Resolution No. 11594.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
To fund the proposed project, estimated at an overall cost of $ 250,000, the City desires to apply for a grant for up to $100,000 from Reclamation . The remaining $150,000 for the project will be funded from the Water Impact Fund (Fund 456). The minimum required cost-share for the City is 50%. The expected award date for the grant is late 202 6. Proposed project costs for the City’s $150,000 share will be requested in the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 budget. In addition, The Ferguson Group will write the grant proposal, perform the necessary outreach to Reclamation, and conduct a review of the necessary City documentation needed for the submittal of the grant application for up to $11,000 as part of their curr ent agreement with the City for Federal Advocacy Services.
Sufficient Funds are available in the Water Impact Fund (Fund 456) for this project and for the grant writing services of The Ferguson Group.

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11621 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Amendment to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 21-068) with Genuine Parts Company DBA Napa
Auto Parts for an Annual Cost of up to $1,032,600 for Vendor Managed Inventory Services in the Fleet Division, 1300
Leidesdorff Street, from all Department Funds as Required for Vehicle Maintenance and Repairs
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11621 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Amendment to the Agreement (Contract No. 173-21 21-068) with Genuine Parts Company DBA Napa Auto Parts for an Annual Cost of up to $1,032,600 for Vendor Managed Inventory Services in the Fleet Division, 1300 Leidesdorff Street, from all Department Funds as Required for Vehicle Maintenance and Repairs.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Utilities Department’s Fleet Management Division is responsible for the repair and maintenance of more than 500 vehicles and equipment assets across multiple c ity departments.
Annually, Fleet division staff generate approximately 2,300 work orders and utilize an estimated 56,000 individual parts.
On September 14, 2021, the Folsom City Council adopted Resolution No. 10693, authorizing an agreement with Genuine Parts Company (NAPA) to operate an on-site store supporting the city’s automotive parts needs.
The city entered into this agreement through a cooperative purchasing contract (No. 110520-GPC) between NAPA and Sourcewell, a national cooperative purchasing organization of which the City
06/09/2026 Item No.8.
2 of Folsom is a member. While the original Sourcewell contract has since expired, a successor contract with substantially similar terms has been executed, extending service availability through December 2028.
To ensure the continued operation of the on- site store within the F leet division, the agreement between the city and NAPA must be amended to reflect the updated Sourcewell contract number (No. 090624-GPC).
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
Section 2.36.170 of the Folsom Municipal Code permits cooperative purchasing agreements for the procurement of any supplies, equipment, service, or construction with one or more public procurement units in accordance with an agreement entered into or between the participants.
ANALYSIS
The Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) agreement ensures consistent, timely, and cost -effective access to parts. Under this model, a full -time Inventory Specialist is assigned on -site to procure parts for all repair activities. This centralized approach provides Fleet division mechanics with a single point of contact, eliminating the need to independently source parts from multiple vendors.
To maintain uninterrupted service, NAPA provides a qualified substitute in the absence of the assigned specialist. As a result, more than 90 percent of parts orders are fulfilled within a two-hour timeframe.
The VMI agreement also eliminated the need for the ci ty to own and manage inventory. NAPA retains ownership of parts until they are needed for a specific repair. The Inventory Specialist assigns each part to the corresponding vehicle and work order, ensuring accurate cost allocation to city departments. The specialist is responsible for tracking all inventory movement within the parts room, and all expenditures must be tied to an authorized work order.
In addition, the VMI program includes routine inventory audits and proactive adjustments to align stock levels with the city’s operational needs. This approach minimizes the city’s exposure to costs associated with excess, obsolete, or unused inventory. If parts are not needed by the c ity, NAPA is able to utilize their network of stores and vendors to circulate parts to other outlets prior to becoming obsolete and losing their value.
Efficient fleet maintenance operations rely on the timely ava ilability of parts. Prior to implementing NAPA’s integrated business solution the c ity employed an Inventory Clerk whose responsibilities extended beyond inventory management. Mechanics frequently had to research parts independently and drive to multiple retail locations to procure what they needed for repairs.
Utilizing VMI brings the expertise and extensive network of NAPA into the c ity operations allowing mechanics to focus on core repair functions . Inventory is actively managed to ensure
06/09/2026 Item No.8.
3 accurate accounting and on -hand availability to best meet c ity needs. The Fleet division has determined that the VMI model represents the most cost-effective approach to meeting its ongoing essential parts procurement needs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total financial impact of continuing NAPA’s operation of an on- site store at the corporation yard is not to exceed $1,032,600 annually for parts and store operations, with costs allocated across all city departments. On average, the city spends about $994,000 under this program. The cost of operating the store includes all staff costs, insurance, office equipment, and supplies, and averages $106,000 of the total cost each year . Store operating costs are paid through the Fleet division budget which is funded by a cost allocation plan based on labor hours of fleet staff for each department’s vehicles. Approximately 73% of fleet overhead, including the operating cost of the store, is funded by enterprise funds.
All automotive parts, including NAPA branded or sourced from other vendors, are provided to the city at 10% above NAPA’s cost. Parts expenses are charged directly to the respective departments at the time of use and are budgeted within each department’s vehicle maintenance account.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

ITEM TITLE: Resolution No. 11623 – A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for $474,041 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) for Design, Engineering Services During Construction, and
Construction Management and Inspection for the Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project (Phase 1) (WA2703) and Appropriation of Funds
FROM: Utilities Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Utilities Department recommends the City Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11623 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for $474,041 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) for Design, Engineering Services During Construction, and Construction Management and Inspection f or the Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project (Phase 1) (WA2703) and Appropriation of Funds.
BACKGROUND / ISSUE
The Utilities Department identifies water infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement projects through water master plans, ongoing water condition assessment programs, and regulatory changes. Through these efforts, portions of the water system have been identified as needing rehabilitation or replacement in order to improve the water distribution system reliability. Through these efforts, Utilities department staff identified the Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project as a priority project.
During construction of the current Tower Tank Rehabilitation Project (Project WA2402) involving East Tank No. 2, Tower Tank, and Foothills Tank No. 2, the contractor encountered multiple unforeseen conditions involving structural deficiencies and other items requiring rehabilitation or replacement. Since the tanks involved in the Tower Tank Rehabilitation Project are of a similar
06/09/2026 Item No.9.
2 age and construction type as the Zone 4 Tank, the Utilities Department has identified the Zone 4 Tank as a priority project to ensure operational reliability of the city’s water distribution system.
The City of Folsom’s Zone 4 Tank is located on Caversham Drive, in the Broadstone neighborhood. Phase 1 of the Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project involves draining and cleaning the tank so that the contractor can install the necessary scaffolding and perform any required sandblasting to allow a licensed structural engineer access to the interior of the tank . A structural engineer will perform an initial structural assessment of the tank to determine the condition of the tank and provide recommendations rega rding rehabilitation. The required assessment by a structural engineer includes r eview of record drawings, photographs, performing structural steel thickness testing (web, flange, etc.), checking for structural defects (corrosion, pitting, buckling, etc.) and preparing a written report including estimated remaining serviceable life of each component and recommendation for full rehabilitation. Other ancillary work at the Zone 4 Tank includes installation of a mixer and blower, spot repair, and miscellaneous electrical improvements. Additionally, this project will include the installation of a mixer and blower at East Tank to improve water quality.
Design and construction of Phase 2 of the project will occur once the structural engineer's recommendation under Phase 1 is complete. Design is anticipated to begin and be completed in FY 2026-27, and Phase 1 construction is also anticipated to begin and be completed in FY 2026-
27. This Resolution will authorize the City Manager to e xecute an agreement with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. for $474,041 from the Water Operating Fund (Fund 520) for design, engineering services during construction, and construction management and inspection f or the Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project (Phase 1) and appropriation of funds.
POLICY / RULE
Section 2.36.120 of the Folsom Municipal Code states, in part, that contracts for supplies, equipment, services, and construction with an estimated value of $77,426 or greater shall be awarded by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
In January 2025, the Utilities Department completed a pre-qualification process for consultants for design and construction administration services for water and wastewater projects. The consulting firms Dewberry Engineers, Inc., Kennedy/Jenks Consultants, Inc. and HydroScience Engineers, Inc. were among a group of firms selected to provide these services for this type of project through this previously completed pre-qualification process. At that time, the Utilities Department also completed a pre-qualification process for consultants for Construction Management and Inspection (CM&I) services for water and wastewater projects, and consulting firms Psomas, Inferrera Construction Management Group, Inc (ICM), Dewberry Engineers, Inc., Kennedy Jenks, West Yost & Associates, MCK Americas, and Albat were selected to provide these services.
06/09/2026 Item No.9.
3 On March 23, 2026, the city sent a Request for Proposals (RFP) to pre-qualified design consultants to provide plans, front end specifications, technical specifications, and other miscellaneous items to complete the project manual for public bid of the construction project, as well as engineering services during construction. The Zone 4 Tank Rehabilitation Project has an accelerated timeline to perform the work and inspection outlined in the RFP due to operational restrictions of when the tanks can be offline for draining, inspection, and repairs, the RFP sent to the pre -qualified design consultants required they partner with one of the city’s pre-approved CM&I firms to expedite the bid process and have the contractor ready to perform the work by October, 2026.
On May 8, 2026, Utilities department staff received proposals from Kennedy/Jenks Consultants, Inc. and HydroScience Engineers, Inc. Dewberry Engineers, Inc. previously notified the city that it was unable to provide the necessary staffing for the project and declined the opportunity to submit a proposal. The proposals were reviewed and scored for project understanding, project team staffing, and recent relevant experience. The technical evaluations were scored as shown in Table 1 based on a maximum technical score of 80.

Design and Engineering Services During Construction for the City of Folsom Zone 4 Phase 1 Tank Rehabilitation Project
• Bay Area Coating Consultants will provide coatings
inspection as a subconsultant to HydroScience. They
bring over 39 years of coating and lining consulting
and inspection firm experience on projects
throughout California and Nevada.
Understanding and Approach
This project will address rehabilitation and operational improvement needs at two potable water storage
reservoirs within the City: the Zone 4 Phase 1
(Broadstone) Tank and the East Tank No.1. The Zone 4
Tank rehabilitation will include draining and cleaning, targeted micro-abrasive sandblasting to expose
structural members, structural engineering inspection
and report preparation, spot repairs, retrofit of a roof- mounted THM mixer and blower, and associated
electrical and controls upgrade work. Site work shall be completed as needed to support the electrical and
blower upgrades. The East Tank No. 1 improvements
will consist of the THM mixer and blower scope only. The THM mixers and venting improvements will reduce the
formation of THMs in the tanks, assist with water age and turnover, and improve water quality.
The scope of services requested by this RFP includes investigation, detailed design, bid phase engineering support, construction phase engineering support, tank condition assessments during construction, CM&I services. A lesson learned during the Tower Tank Rehabilitation Project was that tank interior condition can be significantly worse than expected, even if a pre-construction corrosion inspection is performed, partly because existing coatings can hide significant structural member corrosion. The City had inspections of these tanks which noted corrosion, but the degree is difficult to discern under the existing coatings. HydroScience reviewed the inspection report provided. It supports the City’s strategy and schedule for inspection and ultimate rehabilitation of the tank interior.
The City’s approach to this project bundles the detailed structural inspection into the construction phase, leveraging the planned tank outage and the ability to have the contractor strategically remove coatings in inspection areas. HydroScience believes this is the most effective means to obtain a meaningful condition assessment that can guide further repairs if needed.
The City has planned for more extensive repairs of these tanks in a future CIP project in 3-5 years time.
Based on recent experiences on the Tower Tanks Rehabilitation Project, there is potential that the level of corrosion found on these tanks during the structural inspection may be more severe than expected.
Such a finding would increase the urgency of repairs and likely result in the City moving full rehabilitation of these tanks up the priority list. We further understand that other improvements may be added to the design and rehabilitation scope to bring these tanks up to current City standards. These could include:
Given the HydroScience Team’s experience
on the ongoing Tower Tanks Rehabilitation
Project, where more extensive repairs were
implemented to address unexpected severe
corrosion (see photo), this team is well-
positioned to pivot quickly to any level of
rehabilitation design and construction
required to restore the condition of the Zone
4 Phase 1 (Broadstone) tank.

Broadstone/Z4
• Water quality monitoring system
• Diver cleanouts
• Stairs
• Level gauge/transmitter enclosures
• Relocate tank outlet above-grade
East Tank No. 2
• Blower/mixer system and curb modifications
• Diver cleanouts
HydroScience demonstrated its effectiveness in helping the City respond to similarly urgent needs on the Tower Tank Rehabilitation Project. This experience positions us to respond quickly should this project see a similar outcome. We are prepared to quickly scope and execute design of any required repairs and incorporate it into this or a future bid package for expedited implementation in the next winter season.
The City provided as-built drawings for both tanks and typical mounting details for the THM mixer system. HydroScience reviewed these documents and considered our understanding of the City’s water distribution system and our experience on recent City projects, particularly the Tower Tank Rehabilitation Project, and similar tank projects in the preparation of this proposal.
The City needs bid documents ready by August 1, 2026 with the goal of construction occurring between October 2026 and April 2027 during the low demand winter season when both tanks can be offline. If necessary, project improvements not tied to the shutdown of a tank (electrical, controls, drainage, etc.) can be constructed during higher demand periods in dry weather.
HydroScience will develop and regularly update a detailed Microsoft Project schedule with all major activities and task interdependencies. At the conclusion of design, the schedule will feed into the preparation of detailed Division 01 specifications describing construction sequencing and constraints and establishing the number of contract days. HydroScience has included a preliminary version of this schedule in accordance with the RFP (Attachment B) illustrating the anticipated design and construction schedule, with the construction schedule depicting how construction may be phased and sequenced for each tank including outage time, draining, inspection, repairs, and restoration of service.
The CM&I proposal is based on the durations shown.
The removal of tanks from service will require careful advance planning and close coordination with City Water System Operations. HydroScience will identify constraints, prerequisite activities, risks, and risk mitigations early in the project and track these as the project definition develops. This tracking will drive critical project decisions and inform the preparation of notes and contract requirements for the contractor to closely adhere to and the construction manager to enforce. Similarly, given the proximity of the tanks to parks and residences, the specifications will carefully describe construction constraints to minimize noise and disruption.

Regional Wastewater Control Facilities
Stockton, San Joaquin County, California
Lead EI&C. HydroScience played a lead role on the rehabili- tation of the primary clarifiers and sludge and scum pumping systems as part of this Progressive Design-Build project. The existing clarifiers consisted of three discrete banks constructed at different times (as far back as the 1940s) and configured dif- ferently. Two of the clarifiers were “squircular” (circular mecha- nisms in square tanks) while the remaining ones are rectangular.
HydroScience performed a mechanical condition assessment, utilized a facility mass balance to determine anticipated future sludge removal rates and flows for pumping, developed pro- posed rehabilitation approaches for the clarifiers, worked with the contractor to refine construction approach and develop cost estimates for the improvements, and presented our findings in a workshop to City staff. HydroScience helped develop the pro- cess control narratives and finalized the construction plans and specifications and provided review of construction submittals.
The updated clarifiers now have a total capacity of 80 MGD.

WTP On-Site Residuals Management
San Juan Water District, California
Structural Engineer. HydroScience evaluated the
District’s WTP on-site residuals handling prac -
tices with respect to current and future regula -
tions. Evaluations included quantifying the solids
produced and determining the solids drying
area required under current and buildout con -
ditions. Based on the preliminary evaluations,
HydroScience proposed improvements to the
solids drying area to better retain solids and
capture rain runoff. The recommended improve -
ments include provisions to return runoff into the
WTP process stream. HydroScience prepared
a Technical Memorandum that summarized the
evaluation results and preliminary design param -
eters for a solids retention bed (for additional
drying) and for a sump and pump to collect sur -
face runoff from the solids retention bed.

#1 will be constructed on an adjacent City-acquired
property and will include submersible pumps with
VFDs, a wet well, odor control, bypass provisions,
and connections to both interim (14-inch) and
future (12-inch) force mains. It will be designed to
meet current City standards and blend with the
neighborhood. To support the new lift station, a
new 12-inch sanitary sewer force main approxi -
mately 9,744 feet in length will be constructed in
two phases, phase I will begin from SLS #1 up to
the I-80 crossing and phase II includes crossing
I-80 and UPRR to connect with the City’s sewer
collection system. HydroScience previously

REPRESENTATIVE PROJECTS
River Trunk Realignment: Beard Brook Siphon and Cannery Segregation, Modesto, CA
Principal Geotechnical Engineer. Prepared a Draft Geotechnical Study to upgrade and improve the River Trunk, Beard Brook Siphon, and Cannery Segregation Diversion Structures. Improvements include rehabilitation of the existing Sutter Trunk; replacement of the existing River Trunk with force main and gravity systems; installation of a pump station; replacement of the existing Beard Brook Siphon with a new gravity sewer beneath Dry Creek; reroute Shackelford Siphon to the new River Trunk gravity sewer; and utilization of the existing River Trunk facilities for future Cannery Segregation Line capacity needs. Design issues include deep excavation, dewatering, horizontal directional drilling, and liquefaction mitigation.
River Trunk Pipeline Rehabilitation at Gallo Winery, Modesto, CA As Principal Geotechnical Engineer, Ben oversaw the preparation of a Geotechnical Report for the River Trunk Pipeline Rehabilitation project located within the Gallo Winery property in Modesto, CA. The City of Modesto recently experienced a failure along the River Trunk Pipeline within the Gallo property. The failure occurred near the roof of the pipe due to fatigue and was likely not caused by a lack of soil support. Through this area the River Trunk Pipeline consists of a 45 to 60 inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) approximately 10 feet below existing grade . Improvements to the pipeline will include slip lining the existing pipeline. Crawford analyzed subsurface and surface conditions and completed laboratory testing to provide geotechnical considerations for grading; soil excavatability and stability; scarification and compaction; and fill placement and backfill.
Modesto River Trunk Pipeline Realignment & Pump Station Project, Modesto, CA The overall project includes about 23,000 lineal feet of 15-60” diameter pipeline, new pump station with ancillary support structures, and various manhole and vault structures.
Crawford performed Cone Penetrometer Tests and exploratory test borings and installed vibrating wire piezometers during drilling to monitor groundwater conditions. Prepared a Geotechnical Report with analysis of subsurface conditions and provided pipeline, trench sidewalls, backfill material, and compaction recommendations. Foundation recommendations for the pump station and ancillary structures include Mat Foundations and Strip or Spread footings. Key geotechnical considerations include the variability in soil strata throughout the alignment and the presence of loose/soft soils within the planned pipe zone, and groundwater presence within the required deep excavations for the pump station.

Summary
City TaskBy OthersPage 1City of Folsom - Zone 4 Phase 1 TankDesign and Construction ScheduleDate: Thu 5/7/26 ATTACHMENT B: PRELIMINARY PROJECT SCHEDULE
Schedule Notes:
The design is streamlined into two submittal milestones (50% and 100%) to reach the Bidding phase as soon as possible and ahead of the City's August 1, 2026 bid package deadline. Contractor Notice to Proceed is issued mid-September, providing time for early submittal approvals to enable outage related work activities (shown in orange) to begin near the start of the outage window in October.
Outage-related work is expected to be complete by January 2027. Equipment procurement, site work, and electrical work will proceed in parallel. East Tank No. 1 is understood to already be equipped with the access required to install the mixer/THM blower system. Therefore, no tank outage is anticipated to be needed for that work. Zone 4 Tank 1 will need to be fully drained to complete the work. East Tank No. 1 may need some modest water level adjustments to facilitate construction, but is not expected to require draining.
The schedule provides two months of contingency time for additional outage related work should it be needed, and/or for any unanticipated construction delays.

Consent Calendar
SUBJECT: Resolution No. 11624 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Non-Exclusive Agreements for On- Call Engineering, Construction Inspection, and Surveying Services up to appropriated and available project specific budg ets with 4LEAF, Inc., BKF Engineers, Boswell & Associates, R EY
Engineers, Inc., and Unico Engineering
FROM: Public Works Department
RECOMMENDATION / CITY COUNCIL ACTION
The Public Works Department recommends that the Cit y Council pass and adopt Resolution No. 11624 - A Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Non-Exclusive Agreements for On-Call Engineering, Construction Inspection, a nd Surveying Services up to appropriated and available project specific budgets with 4LEAF, Inc., BKF Engineers, Boswell & Associates, REY Engineers, Inc., and Unico Engineering.
BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department oversees City right of way surveying and acquisition, drainage infrastructure, roadway maintenance and capital imp rovement projects. Many project deliverables and activities require specific techni cal involvement, including: environmental reports, construction drawings, right of way apprai sal/acquisition, utility coordination, and implementation of locally, state, and federally fun ded projects. Additional duties of Public Works staff include extensive coordination related to development projects, state stormwater permitting, regional agency coordination, encroachm ent permits, special event permits, and asset management. Currently, Public Works has two vacancies (Associate/Assistant Civil Engineer and Senior Civil Engineer) and carries a full workload staffed at half capacity.
In September of 2025, in collaboration with the Com munity Development Department, staff posted a Request for Proposal for On-Call Engineeri ng, Construction Inspection, and On-Call Surveying Services. Five Consultant Firms submitted proposals for one or more of the solicited contract services and included specialty subconsult ants such as geotechnical and traffic engineering. Staff rated the Proposals and selecte d all five firms to provide the City with On-
06/09/2026 Item No.10.
2 Call Services. Firms were ranked based on services offered, staff expertise and availability, specialty skills, and expenditure. Those firms inc lude 4LEAF, Inc., BKF Engineers, Boswell & Associates, REY Engineers, Inc., and Unico Engine ering. In November of 2026, City Council approved Resolution No. 11501 to approve on -call contracts for the Community Development Department. This is a replication of that effort for the Public Works Department to support capital project delivery and department workload.
Staff is recommending that the City Manager be authorized to execute these five non-exclusive agreements for a three-year period (June 1, 2026, t hrough June 1, 2029), by utilizing appropriated and available project specific budget.
POLICY / RULE
In accordance with Chapter 2.36 of the Folsom Municipal Code, contracts greater than $77,426 shall be awarded by the City Council.
ANALYSIS
Folsom has experienced consistently high volumes of capital project delivery, engineering permit review, and inspections with limited staff c apacity. To meet community needs, Folsom has consistently utilized on-call consultant servic e contracts for engineering, surveying, and inspection services. This resolution would authorize the execution of non-exclusive agreements with five firms to support the Public Works Departm ent. Funding for on-call services is identified through appropriated project budget and services procured through these contracts would be billed directly to capital project budgets.
In implementing these contracts for consulting services, staff will allocate work among the five selected consultants based on workload, technical n eed, expertise, and service costs. It is important to note that the Public Works Department will retain the flexibility to assign work to one or more of the selected firms. In other words, selected firms are not guaranteed assignment of work and are not limited to a fair share of the total. This allows Staff to determine how best to meet service needs as they arise. Example services include:
Right of Way Surveying and Acquisition Services
Geotechnical Engineering and Materials Testing
Traffic Engineering and Analysis Support
Civil and Structural Engineering (roadway, bridges and retaining walls)
For larger and state or federally funded projects w ith intentional scope of work, staff will continue to prepare Requests for Proposals to meet the requirements of the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual. For smaller efforts, staff will continue to prepare a cost-benefit analysis of high contract service costs against additional full-time staff to meet project delivery needs while making prudent use of the City’s limite d resources. The proposed on-call service solution allows flexibility in how the City meets c apital project needs and does not preclude alternative or supplemental solutions (e.g., full-t ime permanent staff, part-time temporary contract staff, pass through funding contracts).
