Meeting Date: October 11, 2022

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GARDENA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA TITLE:

RESOLUTION NO. 6584
, A
dopting Council Policy No. 22-01-City of
Gardena Electronic Signature Use Policy
COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Adopt Resolution No. 6584
RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY:

The Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (“UETA” codified at Civ. Code § 1633.1 et seq.) generally governs the use of “electronic signatures” by parties to a transaction, and Government Code section 16.5 governs the specific use of “digital signatures” (a type of electronic signature) by and in transactions with public entities.

Electronic signatures have become increasingly common in public and private transactions, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Accordingly, the City desires to implement industry best practices using electronic records and electronic signatures to effectively manage documents in accordance with California state law.

Over the past several years, the City has invested in, and continues to improve, citywide business processes. The City has implemented the use of an agenda management system that provides a digital workflow removing the creation of paper documents for that process. A State of California compliant digital signing application may be used for the digital signing of resolutions, ordinances, minutes, contracts and other documents as appropriate.

The proposed Council Policy No. 22-01-City of Gardena Electronic Signature Use Policy (Policy), attached as Exhibit A to proposed Resolution No. 6584 establishes guidelines for the use and acceptance of electronic signatures used to conduct official business in the City. This Policy allows the use of electronic signatures in lieu of manual signatures, when permitted by law, and establishes when an electronic signature may replace a manual signature. At this time, only the following classes of documents would be permitted for electronic signature:
1 .

Contracts/Agreements and Amendments that do not require notarization 2 .

City Council Resolutions
3 .

City Council Ordinances
4 .

City Council Minutes
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 6584.

FINANCIAL IMPACT/COST:

The cost of the digital signing application (DocuSign)
is $2,746 annually and has been
included in the Office of the City Clerk and City Manager’s budget.

AGENDA REPORT SUMMARY
Agenda Item No. 15.A
Section: DEPARTMENTAL

ITEMS - POLICE
Meeting Date: October 11, 2022

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE GARDENA CITY COUNCIL AGENDA TITLE:

Authorization to Purchase Five (5) Patrol Vehicles from National Auto Fleet Group and Expend Build Out Costs in the Amount Not to Exceed $403,000.

COUNCIL ACTION REQUIRED:

Staff Recommendation: A
uthorize the Police
Department to purchase five (5)
new/unused 2023 Ford Utility Police Interceptor
AWD vehicles from National Auto Fleet
Group and expend the vehicle build-outs for
a total amount not to exceed $403,000.

RECOMMENDATION AND STAFF SUMMARY:

On July 26, 2022, the City Council authorized the purchase of five (5) new 2022 Ford Police Interceptors. The total cost of each vehicle, including state sales tax and tire tax, was $42,165.04 for each patrol unit. These vehicles were available under the Sourcewell Master Vehicle Contract #091521-NAF, formerly known as the National Joint Powers Alliance (NJPA) contract. The five new Ford Police Interceptors would replace five older Police Interceptors that are currently in service or have been damaged beyond repair.

On October 5, 2022, the Police Department received a letter from Ford that due to the continuing global microchip shortage and major disruptions in the supply chain resulting in unpredictable manufacturing plant downtime, Ford will be unable to build all the 2022 vehicles currently in the government bank order and orders will need to be resubmitted for 2023 vehicles. Therefore, the original purchase order is essentially canceled. Moreover, as a result of record inflation and significant impacts on raw material costs, Ford would not offer price protection on the 2023 vehicles. The total increase in cost for the five 2023 vehicles is $59,535. Ford did offer to prioritize orders being resubmitted, and as such, the Police Department has obtained a new quote for five (5) new 2023 Police Interceptor vehicles.

The ongoing replacement of capital equipment is necessary to maintain a fleet inventory that is safe, efficient, and reliable. This purchase of five new patrol vehicles will replace the older vehicles that have reached the end of their useful service life due to age, mileage, and general wear and tear. Currently, the Police Department has thirty-one (31) black-and-white patrol vehicles in the fleet, with the plan to replace five units per year through the City’s Equipment Revolving Fund.

The City can once again take advantage of the Sourcewell Master Vehicle Contract and will purchase the Ford Police Interceptors at a discount:

South Bay Regional Public Communications Authority (SBRPCA) is our local vendor for vehicle buildouts. Over the years, SBRPCA staff has worked to find the most reasonable prices on equipment that we purchase through them. However, with the significant outlay for the purchase and outfitting of these vehicles with all new equipment, Staff sought options to reduce expenses by having SBRPCA recycle most of the serviceable equipment from the five decommissioned Ford Police Interceptors. This option will result in a cost reduction in vehicle setups.

Pursuant to Staff’s request, SBRPCA conducted an inventory of useable vehicle parts and quoted build-out costs for each unit to be $19,175.26, for a total cost of $95,876.30.

Ordinarily, the cost to build five new police patrol units is approximately $118,465.00. As a result of our decision to recycle viable equipment from the older police units at a cost of $95,876.30, we estimate a savings of approximately $22,588.70 overall. Since Staff cannot determine the exact timing for the receipt and build-out of the new vehicles, this quote is our best estimate regarding build-out costs.

In conclusion, Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council approve the purchase and build-out costs for five new 2023 Ford Utility Police Interceptor AWD vehicles.

FINANCIAL IMPACT/COST:

The
vehicle and build-out costs will be covered under the City’s Equipment Revolving Fund, not to exceed $403,000.

Dear Valued Government Partner:

First, I’d like to thank you for your continued support over the years as we have worked together to provide for the vehicle needs of our communities. We have always tried to place our government partners first in all our decision making.

As you know, this past year has presented an extremely challenging environment for the global automotive industry due to the continuing global microchip shortage, major disruptions in the supply chain due to the war in Eastern Europe and other factors and the lingering impact of Covid.

This unprecedented combination of events has contributed to logistical challenges and unpredictable manufacturing plant downtime. Given the high order submission s and unforeseen plant downtime, we will not be able to build all the unscheduled 2022 MY vehicles currently in the Government order bank. We will be prioritizing all 2022 MY vehicles that have been Purchase Order verified and re-submitted as a 2023 MY. Please work with your dealership contact to verify which orders will need to be carried over from one year to the next.

Compounding matters, we are experiencing record inflation, greater than at any time in the last forty years. Inflation, as well as significant impacts on raw material costs are affecting new vehicle pricing. Given these circumstances, we will not guarantee price protection on unscheduled 2022 MY orders that are re-entered into the 2023 MY order bank. We appreciate your understanding as we work through these challenging times, and you can be assured that we are closely monitoring such global events and will communicate any implications beyond the 2023 MY at the appropriate time.

Please contact your dealership representative for complete details. Thank you again for your loyalty and support of the Ford brand.

Sincerely,

Nathan Oscarson
National Government Sales Manager
