The City of Glendora provides dial-a-ride service for Glendora residents who are seniors and/or persons with disabilities. The dial-a-ride service hours are Monday-Friday, 8:00AM-5:00PM and Saturday-Sunday, 9:00AM-2:00PM. The dial-a-ride service provides trips within the City of Glendora as well as to eight regional medical facilities. Most of their customers rely on the Glendora Dial-a-Ride for nearly all transportation trips. Having reliable vehicles will allow Glendora to continue providing high-quality and reliable paratransit service to their residents.
The vehicles being replaced have met and/or exceeded their useful life and will be disposed of in accordance with Federal requirements. The vehicles scheduled for purchase will meet the Clean Air Act standards (CAA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
The following is a description of the vehicles slated for disposition:

This plan contains six shortage levels ranging from “up to 10%” (Level 1), to “a shortage greater than 50%” Level 6. A level 3 WSCP, which The City has currently adopted, triggers enhanced promotion of ongoing Water Use Efficiency programs and tools.
Customer participation is a key element in responding to unpredictable drought conditions, supply shortages, and State water conservation legislation effective next year. This State legislation, SB606 & AB1668, aims to “Make Conservation a California Way of Life” which includes a renewed focus on commercial water use. The City’s new Commercial Water Use Efficiency Program (“Program”) will be introduced next year to assist commercial property owners in saving water while meeting the legislative performance measure requirements for commercial properties. With extensive media coverage on the legislation, in conjunction with our own outreach efforts, there is a greater awareness of water conservation in the business sector. Therefore, we anticipate a higher demand for water saving fixtures and devices from commercial properties in the next year.
Direct installation of water efficiency devices offers an easy way for commercial water customers to respond to the Statewide call for water conservation. Retrofitting toilets and urinals with low flow, high efficiency fixtures can have a substantial impact on lowering indoor water use. EcoTech Services, Inc., direct installation program offers these kinds of retrofit services as part of their scope of work.
The proposed contract with an exemption from competitive bidding requirements pursuant to City of Glendora Municipal Code 2.40.100 (c) Procurement of services, section (3) Whereas, EcoTech Services, Inc., is the only sole source, and the designee is satisfied that the best price, terms, and conditions for the procurement thereof have been negotiated.
FISCAL IMPACT
$1,127,097 has been allocated in the Water Division Water Conservation Fiscal Year 23-24 Budget.
There is sufficient available balance in the Water budget to fund the appropriation in the amount of $106,700.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This activity is not a “project” as defined by Section 21065 of the Public Resources Code or sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines.

If the Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.
(i) Notice of cancellation. Consultant agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to City with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. (j) Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies. (k) Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. 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 of in writing. (l) Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.
(m) Pass through clause. Consultant agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Consultant. Consultant 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. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. (n) Agency’s right to revise specifications. 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 Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City and Consultant may renegotiate Consultant’s compensation. (o) Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by City. (p) Timely notice of claims. Consultant shall give City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.

7.2 Disputes; Default.
In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default.
Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices.

If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.

7.3 Retention of Funds.
Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or DocuSign Envelope ID: 173F93BE-4DF8-4ECF-BFBC-65BB56DA8504 Item #9.

The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.

In addition, the Consultant reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine.

If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.
7.9 Attorneys’ Fees.

2. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
Project Understanding
Overview
EcoTech understands the goal of the project is to provide a turn key program solution to commercial customers for retrofitting their existing inefficiency plumbing fixture with high efficiency models at no cost to the user. This program will help reduce the water use of these commercial buildings which represents almost 20% of the city’s water use.
We fully are ready to address every aspect and desire of the city mentioned in this RFP and will show in the following pages are history of doing this type of work including for the City of Glendora.
Understanding detail
Overall EcoTech understands and is ready to provide the following in short summary that will be discussed more in detail on the following pages.
1. Excellent customer service to commercial participants to encourage participation and recommendations to other commercial sites
2. Collect signed participation forms
3. Complete pre inspection to assess site participation and water savings
4. Retrofit inefficient sanitary plumbing fixtures with high efficient models including removal, disposal and installation
5. Inform the participant of EcoTech’s warranty and followup customer service options
6. Provide highly organized program tracking
7. Invoice monthly for work completed and included required supplemental material Deviations
Installation Goal
EcoTech Services understands the goal of the program is to retrofit 50 high-efficiency toilets and 50 ultralow flow urinals in commercials buildings. However, we would like to make the city aware this could be difficult and counter intuitive to achieve. Most commercial buildings install toilets and urinals in a 3 :1 ratio.
Meaning there is only one (1) urinal for ever three (3) toilets. EcoTech feels the city should be flexible of the goals of each fixture type or it could be put into a position where very early in the project it will only be able to offer urinals to commercial customers. This seems less productive then 100% completing an entire commercial property if the funding is available.
Please note this change in flexibility to fixture count could alter the not to exceed limit on our Fee Proposal section.
More Detailed Fee Structure Advantage
EcoTech recognizes the value of a simplified fee structure. However in projects and programs such as this there can be significant cost differences in type of fixtures. If City of Glendora wishes EcoTech can provide a more detailed fee structure to maximize financial savings and spread the City’s budget to more customers.
Item #9. Page 36
Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 502
City of Glendora | Commercial Direct Install Program 7
On the following pages EcoTech will describe in more detail how it will preform the tasks required to successfully complete this project on behalf of the City of Glendora. We will also discuss deliverables, estimated timelines and milestones.
Pre-Installation
Customer Service
Customer Service in a program like this is a top priority as past experience has show that Property Owners for commercial buildings are very hard to get a hold of and gain trust. Once that trust is gained it is critical to keep it. EcoTech will ensure customer service is kept as a top priority throughout the process.
To ensure this EcoTech will be completing the following
1. Participants will only deal with one project manager for all project needs including schedule, inspections, installation and final site walk.
2. All participants will receive the direct cell phone for the project manager and installation team completing work.
Customer Participation Form
During the first month of the program EcoTech will work with the City of Glendora to develop a participation agreement and hold harmless. EcoTech has worked on several program like this in the past and are more than happy to share samples with the city.
EcoTech will attempt to receive electronically the Property Owners consent via the participation form for the inspection and overall participation in program. If this can not be done electronically EcoTech will bring physical forms to the pre installation inspection discussed below. The forms must be signed before EcoTech enters the property.
Pre Installation Inspection
EcoTech will schedule with the site representative to inspect the proposed site and complete a current plumbing inspection. EcoTech will make all reasonable efforts to be available for inspections at the convenience of the site.
During this time we will inspect each plumbing fixture, and collect at the minimum the following data; • Static and Dynamic Water pressure
• Interview building maintenance for previous plumbing problems • Plumbing inventory (current make Model and Model)
• Current GPF/ GPM of indoor fixtures
• Toilet Rough-in
• Abnormal retrofit requirements
• Water meter for leaks (does not include specific leak detection) • Sanitary fixture leak rate if possible
• EcoTech shall attempt to visually inspect for water damage, damaged flanges, leaking valves and supply lines.

City of Glendora | Commercial Direct Install Program 8
• Water shutoff procedures and availability
• Project contacts
• Site replacement product preferences if any
• Staging requirements if any
• Sample photos of pre existing fixtures
Site Retrofit Estimate
After the successful completion of the site assessment EcoTech will create a detailed retrofit quote sheet for the site based off the pricing in Exhibit A. This estimate will be based off only retrofitting fixture with a n existing GPF of 1.6 for toilets and 1.5 for urinals. This cost must be approved by the City before any retrofit work begins. At the same time EcoTech will provide a detailed summary and estimate sheet to the site of any work not covered by Glendora’s program.
Product Selection
After approval of the project by the City, EcoTech will work the site representative to select the retrofit product, discuss logistics of the retrofit and schedule the work to be completed. The site representative will be provided a list of product options that meet the requirements set forth in the RFP and fall within the price point of EcoTech’s Bid. EcoTech will assist site with our experience and recommend to them the product we thing will work best in their situation. EcoTech highly recommend to commercial sites to install ADA toilets as required to meet City code requirments. See Exhibit B for examples.
Installation
Site Retrofit
After approval of the project by the City, product has been selected by the site, installation logistics including the install date decided, EcoTech will move onto the installation phase. All Installations will be comleted in house by EcoTech Services staff.
The first step will be staging materials and disposal/recycling services as necessary. Most sites will not require any sort of staging if the site is small or logistics allow for a paced out schedule.
Once the retrofits begin we will work daily until completion of the project pending any unavoidable and unforeseen circumstances. All work will be completed Monday- Friday between the hours of 6am4:30pm. Absolutely no work will be allowed on weekends due to the requirement of overtime rates set forth by prevailing wage law. EcoTech will make all reasonable efforts to be available for installations at the convenience of the site following these guidelines.

• New flange bolts
• New wax ring
• New toilet caps
• New supply line

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: DECEMBER 12, 2023
FROM: POLICE DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: APPROVE THE FLOCK GROUP ORDER FORM AND THE ASSOCIATED FIVE-YEAR
MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR AUTOMATED LICENSE PLATE READERS IN THE AMOUNT OF $392,500
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Approve the FLOCK Group order form and the associated five-year Master Services Agreement, for a cost of $78,500 annually, for a total amount of $392,500; and
2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the FLOCK Group order form and the associated five-year Master Services Agreement including minimal and/or non-substantive changes.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 5: Improve and Maintain the City’s Infrastructure and Facilities (IMCIF)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Flocks Automated License Plate Readers technology provides City law enforcement the ability to have the City's access points monitored by cameras that alert police officers to stolen vehicles and those individuals who have criminal arrest warrants tied to vehicle license plates. These cameras have given officers the tools to effectively reduce crime. Several cities in our area also use Flock cameras. Those cities include:
Covina, Azusa, West Covina, Upland, San Dimas, Walnut, Ontario, Redlands, San Marino, and Monterey Park.
Flock is focusing their efforts on citywide coverage and establishing a network (mesh) of cameras in each community. Flock’s cameras capture the date, time, location, license plate, and vehicle details (type and color), as well as objects (bicycles, animals, and people). Notifications are received via the National Crime Information Center (NCIC), which is an electronic clearinghouse of crime data. NCIC operates under a shared management concept between the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), federal, state, and local users.
As of January, 2024, Flock will increase their per unit price to $3,000 per camera. Renewing the contract for a five-year period, prior to December 31, 2023, ensures the City will retain the cost of $2,500 per camera, thereby saving $57,500, over the life of the proposed contract, for the same coverage and the same service and support. The total five-year cost to this agreement is $392,500 paid on an annual basis in the amount of $75,800.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
On May 25, 2021 the City Council approved entering into a two-year contract to retain 30 stationary Flock license plate reading cameras.
Item #10. Page 1
Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 526
Staff Report Page 2 of 3
The Glendora Police Department has been utilizing Flock license plate cameras with great success since October of 2021.
DISCUSSION
Providing efficient law enforcement services to the community is a priority and as such, deploying stationary cameras that identify stolen vehicles and criminal arrest warrants tied to vehicle license plates is a key component to crime prevention. Since Flock cameras were installed at key points throughout the City, they have been used to facilitate criminal investigations on 261 occasions. Our community oftentimes encounters "burglary crews" from outside the city. These crews break into residences, businesses and vehicles and victimize our community. In one such instance, a burglary crew, based out of San Bernardino County, committed a commercial burglary at a large electronics retailer in Glendora and was identified using images from a Flock camera. This information resulted in the service of a search warrant, the recovery of stolen property and the apprehension of a group of individuals suspected of committing multiple commercial burglaries throughout southern California. Criminals are known to drive stolen vehicles while committing these types of crimes in an effort to hide their identity. Being able to identify stolen vehicles and intercept or interrupt these individuals by arresting them as they enter our city has reduced the occurrence of those criminals victimizing our community.
On average, the police department investigates about 200 commercial and residential burglaries per year.
From 2022 to 2023, we saw a 31% reduction in residential burglaries and a 12% reduction in commercial burglaries, year to date. Year to date for 2023, 24 stolen vehicles have been recovered with a suspect in custody, 50% of those cases originated from a Flock license plate camera notification. After our Flock camera system became operational, we saw a 133% increase in the number of arrests related to stolen vehicles. From 2022 to 2023, police department personnel saw a 42% decrease in the number of stolen vehicles entering the City of Glendora.
As a Flock Safety customer, we also have access to other cities' cameras furthering our investigative net by allowing us to search other cities’ databases for vehicles connected to investigations that occur in the City of Glendora. Since the introduction of Flock cameras, this has been used multiple times to advance a variety of criminal investigations.
The key benefits of Flock cameras are that they charge an annual flat rate lease per camera of $2,500, which is wireless, and free of infrastructure setup. They are also a Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) compliant cloud-based hosting service. The flat rate also includes unlimited user licenses, ongoing software enhancements, camera setup, mounting, shipping, handling, and cellular connection. Staff has assessed the performance of the Flock camera system and found that is has been overwhelmingly successful in not only identifying those who commit crimes in the City, but also in preventing criminal behavior.
Currently, we have 30 cameras within the City of Glendora. The existing contract renewed in October 2023 and was set to expire in October 2024. Upon approval of this contract by the City Council, Flock Inc. will cancel the renewal which was just processed in October and apply the payment made towards the new 5-year contract with year-1 beginning once the contract is approved and signed. The new contract is necessary to ensure the City retains the current pricing model.
As of January 2024, Flock will increase their per unit price to $3,000 per camera. By renewing the contract for a 5-year period, prior to December 31, 2023, we will ensure the City will retain the cost of $2,500 per camera, thereby saving $57,500, over the life of the contract, for the same coverage and the same service and support. There is a $3,500 per year charge for an advanced search function that is commonly utilized to identify suspect vehicles where a license plate is not completely visible, but still allows the system to be searched using the make, model, color and any uniquely identifying features of the vehicle.
Flock is the sole manufacturer and developer of the Flock Safety Camera. There are several other differences between Flock and other ALPR companies. Most notably they are the only manufacturer and service provider that leases ALPR services. Others require the City to purchase equipment and Item #10. Page 2

infrastructure which oftentimes includes the purchase of data storage as well.
FISCAL IMPACT

Company Overview
At Flock Safety, technology unites law enforcement and the communities they serve to eliminate crime and shape a safer future, together. We created the first public safety operating system to enable neighborhoods, schools, businesses, and law enforcement to work together to collect visual, audio, and situational evidence across an entire city to solve and prevent crime.
Our connected platform, comprised of License Plate Recognition (LPR), live video, audio detection, and a suite of integrations (AVL, CAD & more), alerts law enforcement when an incident occurs and turns unbiased data into objective answers that increase case clearance, maximize resources, and reduce crime -- all without compromising transparency or human privacy.

4. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the amendment agreement with DD Systems, Inc. including minimal and/or non-substantive changes.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 5: Improve and Maintain the City’s Infrastructure and Facilities (IMCIF)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Finkbiner Park is a highly used public park in the City. The playground area is consistently visited by the families and the kids from the surrounding residential area.
City Council previously approved amending the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to include a project comprehensively renovating the Finkbiner Park playground, restrooms, and tennis court areas, including conversion of one tennis court to four pickleball courts. This project (# 22658201) was bid in two (2) phases. Phase I was completed in May of 2023 and Phase II is under construction.
Phase II also encompasses a wide range of improvements with the construction and renovation of the playground and surrounding areas. As the park undergoes current improvements around the playground area, the replacement of playground equipment is the final enhancement needed to complete the Finkbiner Park renovation.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
On February 8, 2022, City Council approved amending the Capital Improvement Program to include the Project, and appropriating $1,508,650 from Measure E Fund 103 for design and construction.

Staff Report Page 2 of 3
On February 28th, 2023, Phase-1 of the Finkbiner Park Tennis and Pickleball Court Improvements was awarded to NOHO Constructors. Construction began in March of 2023 and concluded in May of 2023.
On August 22nd, 2023, Phase-2 of the Finkbiner Park Improvements was awarded to DD Systems, Inc.
Construction began in September of 2023.
DISCUSSION
The current playground at Finkbiner Park was installed in 2012. Typically, the life expectancy of playground equipment at a public park is around 12 years. To replace the playground equipment, City received a grant in the amount of $96,889.50 from Play & Park Structure Funding Committee through the Healthy Kids Initiative.
The City determined that it will be more cost-effective to replace the equipment before the new poured-inplace surfacing is installed. To meet the grant funding deadline, staff got permission from the City Manager to place the equipment purchase order prior to Council’s formal approval.
Proposed Playground Equipment
Per GMC Section 2.40.090(c)(6), competitive procurement through the informal and formal procurement processes shall not be required when cooperative purchasing is available and undertaken or when goods can be obtained through federal, state, and/or other public entity pricing contracts or price agreements.
Per California Government Code §6502 regarding Joint Powers Agreements, “if authorized by their legislative or other governing bodies, two or more public agencies by agreement may jointly exercise any power common to the contracting parties, including, but not limited to, the authority to levy a fee, assessment, or tax, even though one or more of the contracting agencies may be located outside this state.”
California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS) offers a wide variety of commodity products and services at prices which have been assessed to be fair, reasonable and competitive. The CMAS Program creates a pool of suppliers that government agencies can solicit offers from and streamlines the procurement process. PS Commercial Play pricing proposal provided to the City of Glendora complies with CMAS contract number 4-23-01-1000 which is valid until April of 2025.

Staff Report Page 3 of 3
For removal and installation of playground equipment, staff contacted DD System for the quote. DD System, Inc. was already working on Finkbiner Park Improvements – Phase-2 under the Contract Agreement. DD System quote was found reasonable and lower than the informal quotes received from outside vendors. Therefore staff determined to extend the scope of work with DD System.
To install new playground equipment, DD System was directed to hold laying new poured-in-place surfacing, which was part of the original contract. To minimize the unavailability of the playground area and avoid any delays claims by the contractor, DD System was allowed to start the removal of equipment before Council’s formal approval. This will keep the project on schedule and playground area will be available to the residents in the shortest possible time.
New playground equipment along with overall Park improvements will bring significant benefits to the community and park visitors with improved aesthetics and overall appearance of the park, increased functionality and usability of the park's amenities, enhanced accessibility for individuals with disabilities, and increased reliability through electrical panel upgrades.
FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funding in the amount of $410,000 is available in Fund 321 Capital Improvement for this project.
Additionally, the City received a grant in the amount of $96,889.50 from Play & Park Structure Funding Committee through the Healthy Kids Initiative.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act provisions pursuant to Section 15301(c). The exemption for Finkbiner Park Improvements was previously approved by City Council on February 28th, 2023.

CMAS NUMBER 4-23-01-1000
HOW TO USE CMAS
State agencies must adhere to the requirements in the State Contracting Manual (SCM) Volume 2, Chapter 1600 and CMAS Ordering Instructions and Special Provisions when using CMAS. • Develop an RFO, which includes a Scope of Work (SO~ and Bidder Declaration form. For information on the Bidder Declaration requirements see SCM, Volume 2, Sections 305 and 1202.
• Clearly defined Tasks (what needs to be done) and Deliverables (outcome of each task, i.e., reports, procedures manual, etc.) must be included in the State’s SOW. • For Consulting or Personal services, do not include any labor categories/job titles or number of hours limit in RFO Requirements or the SOW. The CMAS Contractor provides this information in their Attachment B Cost Worksheet. The State does not have the expertise to make this decision (GC 19130(b)).
• Search for potential CMAS contractors on the CMAS website and select “Find a CMAS Contractor.”
• Request offers from a minimum of 3 CMAS contractors including one small business (SB) and/or Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE), if available, who are authorized to sell the products and/or able to perform the services needed. (Government Code 14846(b)). • A valid attempt must be made to secure offers from viable CMAS contractors who are able to supply the goods and/or provide the services. Neither a lack of sufficient CMAS contractors nor the use of restrictive requirements meets the intent for obtaining offers (SCM Volume 2, Section 1670.2).
• If requesting offers from a certified DVBE, include the Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Declarations form (Standard 843) in the RFO. This declaration must be completed by the DVBE prime contractor and/or any DVBE subcontractors and submitted with the offer (SCM Volume 2, Section 1201).
• This is not a bid transaction, so the small business preference, DVBE incentives, protest language, intent to award, evaluation criteria, advertising, Administrative and Technical Requirements, etc. are not applicable. (SCM Volume 2, Section 1603). • If less than 3 offers are received, State agencies must document their file with the reasons why the other suppliers did not respond with an offer. The reason must come from the CMAS contractor.
• Assess the offers received using best value criteria including cost as one of the criteria (SCM Volume 2, Section 1603).
• Issue a Purchase Order to the selected CMAS contractor. • For CMAS transactions under $10,000, only one offer is required if the State agency can establish and document that the price is fair and reasonable. The fair and reasonable method can only be used for non-customizable purchases. See SCM Volume 2, Section 1510 for Fair and Reason criteria.
Local agencies must follow their own procurement regulations. For more information see the Local Agency packet available online.

CMAS NUMBER 4-23-01 -1 000
AGENCY RESPONSIBILITY
Each agency is responsible for its own contracting program and purchasing decisions, including use of the CMAS program and associated outcomes. This responsibility includes, but is not limited to, ensuring the necessity of the services, securing appropriate funding, complying with laws and policies, preparing the purchase order in a manner that safeguards the State’s best interests, obtaining required approvals, and documenting compliance with GC 191 30.b(3) for outsourcing services.
It is the responsibility of each agency to consult with their legal staff and contracting offices for advice depending upon the scope or complexity of the purchase order. If legal services are not available within your agency, DGS Office of Legal Services is available to provide services.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Agencies must evaluate the proposed purchase order to determine if there are any potential conflict of interest issues. See the CMAS Terms and Conditions, Conflict of Interest, for more information.
SPLITTING ORDERS
Splitting orders to avoid any monetary limitations is prohibited. Do not circumvent normal procurement methods by splitting purchases into a series of delegated purchase orders per PCC 10329. Splitting a project into small projects to avoid either fiscal or procedural controls is prohibited per State Administrative Manual (SAM) 4819.34.
This provision does not apply to local government agencies.
ORDERING PROCEDURES
1. Purchase Orders
All Ordering Agency purchase order documents executed under this CMAS must contain the applicable CMAS number as show on page 1.
a. State Departments:
Standard 65 Purchase Documents — State departments not transacting in FISCal must use the Purchasing Authority Purchase Order (Standard 65) for purchase execution. An electronic version of the Standard 65 is available at the Department of General Services (DGS), Procurement Division (PD) website, select Standard (STD) Forms.
FISCAL Purchase Documents — State departments transacting in FISCal will follow the FISCal procurement and contracting procedures.
b. Local Government Agencies:
Local government agencies may use their own purchase order document for purchase execution.

Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 579
CALIFORNIA MULTIPLE AWARD SCHEDULE (CMAS)
PS COMMERCIAL PLAY LLC
CMAS NUMBER 4-23-01 -1 000
The agency is required to complete and distribute the purchase order. For services, the agency shall modify the information contained on the order to include the service period (start and end date), the monthly cost (or other intermittent cost), and any other information pertinent to the services. The cost for each line item must be included in the order, not just system totals.
The contractor must immediately reject purchase orders that are not accurate. Discrepancies are to be negotiated and incorporated into the purchase order prior to product delivery and service implementation.
2. Service and Delivery after CMAS Expiration
The purchase order must be issued before the CMAS expires. However, delivery of the products or completion of the services may be after the CMAS expires (unless otherwise specifically stated in the purchase order). Amending the purchase order to add quantity, time, or money is not possible if the CMAS expired.
3. Multiple CMAS Agreements on a Single Purchase Order
State agencies wishing to include multiple CMAS agreements on a single FISCal purchase order must adhere to the following guidelines:
• All CMAS must be for the same CMAS contractor.
• The purchase order must go to one contractor location. • Enter the word “CMAS” in the space reserved for the Leveraged Procurement Agreement (LPA) number. The word “CMAS” signifies that the purchase order contains items from multiple CMAS agreements. The purchasing agency may only use one bill code. • For each individual CMAS, the agency must identify and group together the CMAS number with the line items and subtotal per CMAS number (do not include tax in the subtotal), and sequentially identify each individual CMAS as Sub #1, Sub #2, Sub #3, etc. This facilitates accurate billing of administrative fees by the Procurement Division. • The total of all items on the purchase order must not exceed the State agency’s purchasing authority dollar threshold granted by DGS PAU.
• Do not combine items from IT and non-IT CMAS agreements. An Information Technology CMAS begins with the number “3” and a non-IT CMAS begins with the number “4.” The purchase order limits are different for these CMAS agreements.
4. Amendments to State Agency’s Purchase Orders
Agency purchase orders cannot be amended if the CMAS has expired.
SCM, Volume 2, Section 1605 provides the following directions regarding amendments to all types of LPA purchase orders:
Original orders, which include options for changes (e.g., quantity or time), that were assessed and considered in the selection for award during the RFO process, may be amended consistent with the terms of the original order, provided that the original order allowed for amendments. If the original order did not evaluate options, then amendments are not allowed unless an Non-Competitively Bid is approved for those amendments.

CALIFORNIA MULTIPLE AWARD SCHEDULE (CMAS)
PS COMMERCIAL PLAY LLC
CMAS NUMBER 4-23-01 -1 000
Amendments unique to Non-IT Services:
If the original contract permitted amendments, but did not specify the changes, (e.g., quantity or time), it may be amended. Per PCC 10335 (d)(1), a contract may only be amended once under this exemption. The time shall not exceed one year, or add not more than 30 percent of the original order value and may not exceed $250,000. If the original contract did not have language permitting amendments, the Non-Competitively Bid process must be followed.
CMAS CONTRACTOR OWNERSHIP INFORMATION
The CMAS contractor is a large business enterprise.
SMALL BUSINESS MUST BE CONSIDERED
Prior to placing orders under the CMAS program, State agencies must first consider offers from small businesses that have established CMAS agreements (CC 14846(b)). NOTE: DGS auditors will request substantiation of compliance with this requirement when agency files are reviewed.
CMAS Small Business and Disabled Veteran Partners can be found on the CMAS website by selecting “Find a CMAS Contractor”.
In response to our commitment to increase participation by small businesses, the Department of General Services waives the administrative fee (charged to customer agencies to support the CMAS program) for orders to California certified small business enterprises.
SMALL BUSINESSIDVBE - TRACKING
State agencies are able to claim subcontracting dollars towards their SB or DVBE goals whenever the CMAS contractor subcontracts a commercially useful function to a certified SB or DVBE. The CMAS contractor will provide the ordering agency with the name of the SB or DVBE used and the dollar amount the ordering agency can apply towards its SB or DVBE goal.
SMALL BUSINESSIDVBE - SUBCONTRACTING
1. The amount an ordering agency can claim towards achieving its SB or DVBE goals is the dollar amount of the subcontract award made by the CMAS contractor to each SB or DVBE.
2. The CMAS contractor will provide an ordering agency with the following information at the time the order is quoted:
a. The CMAS contractor will state that, as the prime contractor, it shall be responsible for the overall execution of the fulfillment of the order.
b. The CMAS contractor will indicate to the ordering agency how the order meets the SB or DVBE goal, as follows:
i. List the name of each company that is certified by the Office of Small Business and DVBE Services that it intends to subcontract a commercially useful function to; and December 09, 2022 Ordering Instructions and Special Provisions 10 Item #11. Page 14
Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 581
CALIFORNIA MULTIPLE AWARD SCHEDULE (CMAS)
PS COMMERCIAL PLAY LLC
CMAS NUMBER 4-23-01-1000
ii. Include the SB or DVBE certification number of each company listed and attach a copy of each certification; and
Ni. Indicate the dollar amount of each subcontract with a SB or DVBE that may be claimed by the ordering agency towards the SB or DVBE goal; and iv. Indicate what commercially useful function the SB or DVBE subcontractor will be providing towards fulfillment of the order.
3. The ordering agency’s purchase order must be addressed to the prime contractor, and the purchase order must reference the information provided by the prime contractor as outlined above.
CONTRACTORS ACTING AS FISCAL AGENTS ARE PROHIBITED
When a subcontractor ultimately provides all of the products or performs all of the services that a CMAS contractor has agreed to provide, and the prime contractor only handles the invoicing of expenditures, then the prime contractor’s role becomes that of a fiscal agent because it is merely administrative in nature and does not provide a Commercially Useful Function. It is unacceptable to use fiscal agents in this manner because the agency is paying unnecessary administrative costs.
WITHHOLD LANGUAGE (SB588)
Upon delivery or completion of ordered goods or services for which the Contractor committed to DVBE subcontractor participation, state departments must require the Contractor to certify all the following:
1. The amount and percentage of work the Contractor committed to provide to one or more DVBEs under the requirements of the contract and the amount each DVBE received from the Contractor.
2. That all payments under the contract have been made to the DVBE. Upon request, the Contractor must provide proof of payment for the work.
In accordance with the Military and Veterans Code 999.7, state departments shall withhold $10,000 from the final payment, orthe full final payment if less than $10,000, if the Contractorfails to meet the certification requirements identified above. State departments shall notify the Contractor of their failure to meet the certification requirements and give the Contractor an opportunity to comply with the certification requirements. If after 30 calendar days from the date of notice, the Contractor refuses to comply with the certification requirements, the state department shall permanently deduct $10,000 from the final payment or the full payment if less than $10,000.
PRODUCT SUBSTITUTIONS
Substitution of Deliverables may not be tendered without advance written consent of the Buyer.
The Contractor must offer an equivalent or newer model of the product from the same manufacturer at the same or lower price. Contractor cannot use any specification in lieu of those contained in the Contract without written consent from the Buyer.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION
The CMAS contractor is fully responsible for all installation services performed under the CMAS.
Product installations must be performed by manufacturer authorized personnel and meet manufacturer documented specifications.
The prime contractor, as well as any subcontractors, must hold any certifications and/or licenses required for the project.
NOT SPECIFICALLY PRICED ITEMS
The only time that open market/incidental, non-contract items may be included in a CMAS order is when they fall under the parameters of the Not Specifically Priced (NSP) Items provision.
CMAS contractors must be authorized providers of the hardware, software and/or services they offer under the NSP Items provision.
Agency and CMAS contractor use of the NSP provision is subject to the following requirements:
1. Purchase orders containing only NSP items are prohibited.
2. A purchase order containing NSP items may be issued only if it results in the lowest overall alternative to the State.
3. NSP items shall be clearly identified in the order. Any product or service already specifically priced and included in the base contract may not be identified as an NSP item.
4. NSP Installation Services: The CMAS contractor is fully responsible for all installation services performed under the CMAS. Product installations must be performed by manufacturer authorized personnel and meet manufacturer documented specifications. The prime contractor, as well as any subcontractors, must hold any certifications and/or licenses required for the project. The total dollar value of all installation services included in the purchase order cannot exceed the dollar value of the products included in the purchase order, nor can they exceed the NSP Maximum Order Limitation.
5. Maximum Order Limitation: For orders $250,000, or less, the total dollar value of all NSP items included in a purchase order shall not exceed $5,000. For orders exceeding $250,000, and at the option of the contractor, the total dollar value of all NSP items in a purchase order shall not exceed 5% of the total cost of the order or $25,000 whichever is lower.
6. An NSP item included in an order issued against this CMAS is subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the CMAS.

7. Trade-ins, upgrades, involving the swapping of boards, are permissible, where the contract makes specific provisions for this action. In those instances, where it is permitted, the purchase order must include the replacement item and a notation that the purchase involves the swapping of a board.
The following NSP items are specifically excluded from any order issued under this CMAS:
1. Items not intended for use in direct support of the priced items included in the same order.
An NSP item must be subordinate to the specifically priced item that it is supporting. For example, a cable, which is not otherwise specifically priced in the base contract, is subordinate to a specifically priced printer and is eligible to be an NSP item subject to that cable meeting the remaining NSP requirements. However, a printer that is not otherwise specifically priced in the base contract, is not subordinate to a specifically priced cable and is not eligible to be an NSP item.
2. Supply type items, except for the minimum amount necessary to provide initial support to the priced items included in the same order.
3. Items that do not meet the Productive Use Requirements for information technology products, per Statewide Information Management Manual Section 195.
4. Any other item or class of items specifically excluded from the scope of this CMAS.
5. Public Works and other services NOT in support of the products covered by this CMAS.
6. Products or services the CMAS contractor is NOT factory authorized or otherwise certified or trained to provide.
7. Follow-on consultant services that were previously recommended or suggested by the same CMAS contractor.
The CMAS contractor is required to reject purchase orders containing NSP items that do not comply with the above requirements. The CMAS contractor will promptly notify the agency issuing the noncompliant order of its rejection and the reasons for its rejection.
STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS CAN USE CMAS
State and local government agency use of CMAS is optional. A local government is any city, county, city and county, district, or other local governmental body or corporation, including Universities of California, California State Universities, K-12 schools, and community colleges empowered to expend public funds. While the State makes this CMAS available, each local government agency should make its own determination whether the CMAS program is consistent with its procurement policies and regulations.

SELF-DELETING BASE CONTRACT TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Instructions or terms and conditions that appear in the Special Items or other provisions of the base contract and apply to the purchase, license, or rental (as applicable) of products or services by the US Government in the United States and/or to any overseas location shall be self-deleting. (Example: “Examinations of Records” provision).
Federal regulations and standards, such as Federal Acquisition Regulation, Federal Information Resources Management Regulation, Federal Information Processing Standards, General Services Administration Regulation, or Federal Installment Payment Agreement shall be self-deleting.
Federal blanket orders and small order procedures are not applicable.

APPLICABLE CODES. POLICIES AND GUIDELINES
All California codes, policies, and guidelines are applicable. The use of CMAS does not relieve state agencies of their responsibility to meet statewide requirements regarding contracting or the procurement of goods or services. Most procurement and contract codes, policies, and guidelines are incorporated into CMAS agreements; however, there is no guarantee that every requirement that pertains to all State processes has been included.
PAYMENTS AND INVOICES
1. Payment Terms
Payment terms for this CMAS are net 45 days.
Payment will be made in accordance with the provisions of the California Prompt Payment Act, GC 927. Unless expressly exempted by statute, the Act requires State agencies to pay properly submitted, undisputed invoices not more than 45 days after (1) the date of acceptance of goods or performance of services; or (2) receipt of an undisputed invoice, whichever is later.

3. DGS Administrative and Incentive Fees
Orders from State Agencies:
DGS will bill each State agency directly an administrative fee for use of CMAS. The administrative fee should NOT be included in the order total or remitted before an invoice is received from DGS. This administrative fee is waived for CMAS purchase orders issued to California certified small businesses.
Orders from Local Government Agencies:
CMAS contractors, who are not California certified small businesses, are required to remit to DGS an incentive fee equal to a percentage of the total of all local government agency orders (excluding sales tax and shipping) placed against their CMAS.
The incentive fee is waived for CMAS purchase orders issued to California certified small businesses.
For more information on the incentive fees see the CMAS Management Guide.
4. Contractor Invoices
Unless otherwise stipulated, the CMAS contractor must send their invoices to the agency address set forth in the purchase order. Invoices shall be submitted in triplicate and shall include the following:
• CMAS number
• Agency purchase order number
• Agency Bill Code (State Only)
• Line item number
• Unit price
• Extended line item price
• Invoice total
State sales tax and/or use tax shall be itemized separately and added to each invoice as applicable.

5. Advance Payments
Advance payment is allowed for services only under limited, narrowly defined circumstances, i.e., between specific departments and certain types of non-profit organizations, or when paying another government agency (GC 11256 through 11263 and 11019).
It is NOT acceptable to pay in advance, except software maintenance and license fees, which are considered a subscription and may be paid in advance if a provision addressing payment in advance is included in the purchase order.
Software warranty upgrades and extensions may also be paid for in advance, one time.
6. Credit Card
The CMAS contractor accepts the State of California credit card (VISA CAL-Card).
A purchase order is required even when the ordering department chooses to pay the CMAS contractor via the CAL-Card.
7. Leasing/Financing
California State Agencies should use the Golden State Financial Marketplace (GS SMart) program for all financing and leasing needs. California Local Government Agencies (counties, cities, K-12 school districts, community colleges, California State Universities, Universities of California, etc.) may utilize the GS SMart program for financing and leasing according to PCC 14937. The minimum dollar amount for Local Government Agency financing and leasing is $100,000.
8. Lease/Purchase Analysis
California State agencies must complete a Lease/Purchase Analysis (LPA) to determine best value when contemplating a lease/rental and retain a copy for future audit purposes (SAM 3710).
For short-term rental equipment, the lease/purchase analysis must be approved by DGS Office of Legal Services.
The lease/purchase analysis for all other purchases must be approved by the Department of General Services, GS SMart State Financial Marketplace. Buyers may contact the GS SMart Unit via e-mail at SFM©dgs.ca.gov for further information.

9. Leasing
The State reserves the right to select the form of payment for all procurements, whether it is an outright purchase with payment rendered directly by the State, or a financing/lease-purchase or operating lease via the State Financial Marketplace (CS SMart and/or Lease SMart). If payment is via the financial marketplace, the CMAS contractor will invoice the State and the State will approve the invoice. The selected Lender/Lessor for all product listed on the State’s procurement document will pay the supplier on behalf of the State. Buyers may contact the GS SMart Unit via e-mail at SFM©dgs.ca.gov for further information.
OBTAINING COPY OF CMAS
A copy of this CMAS can be obtained at Cal eProcure. Links to the CMAS terms and conditions and base contract are available on the front page of this CMAS agreement.
It is important for the agency to confirm that the required products, services, and prices are included in the CMAS and are at or below base contract rates. To streamline verification that the needed items are in the base contract, the agencies should ask the CMAS contractor to identify the specific location in the base contract that include the required products, services, and prices.
Once verified, agencies should save the information for their file documentation.
FEDERAL DEBARMENT
When federal funds are expended, the agency is required to obtain (retain in file) a signed “Federal Debarment” certification from the CMAS contractor before the purchase order is issued. This certification is required by the regulations implementing Executive Order 12549, Debarment and Suspension, 29 CFR Part 98, Section 98.510, Participants; responsibilities. The regulations were published as Part VII of the May 26, 1988 Federal Register (pages 19160-19211).

SUBJECT: FIRST READING AND INTRODUCTION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION
2.04.040 “SALARIES” OF TITLE 2 “ADMINISTRATION AND PERSONNEL” OF THE
GLENDORA MUNICIPAL CODE (MAYOR BOYER)
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. First Reading and Introduction of an Ordinance amending Section 2.04.040 of Title 2 “Administration and Personnel” of the Glendora Municipal Code.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 3: Enhance Employee Development and Retention (EEDR)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On June 29, 2023, the Governor signed Senate Bill 329 (SB 329). The bill allows cities a one-time chance to “reset” city council salaries to take into account inflation, the work done by local government officials, and the need to ensure that people are not discouraged from seeking city office due to the low pay and high demands of that office. At the November 14, 2023, City Council Meeting, Mayor Boyer requested the City Council to discuss council salaries pursuant to SB 329. Previous changes to council member salaries have not been considered since 2007.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Government Code 36516, sets the monthly framework for councilmember compensation in general law cities. The last time City Council salaries in Glendora were adjusted was in 2007.
DISCUSSION
At the November 14, 2023, City Council Meeting, Mayor Boyer requested the City Council to discuss council salaries pursuant to SB 329.
SB 329 amended Section 36516 of the Government Code to allow a one-time reset of councilmember salaries. Specifically, the legislation increases the maximum amounts of salary that can be approved by ordinance, based on the population of the city. The new salary limits are as follows:
Up to $950 per month for cities up to and including 35,000 in population.
Up to $1,275 per month for cities over 35,000 up to and including 50,000 in population.
Up to $1,600 per month for cities over 50,000 up to and including 75,000 in population.
Up to $1,900 per month for cities over 75,000 up to and including 150,000 in population.
Up to $2,550 per month for cities over 150,000 up to and including 250,000 in population.
Up to $3,200 per month for cities over 250,000 in population Further, SB 329 allows council member salaries to be increased beyond the specified maximums. The increases shall not exceed the greater of the following two conditions:
Item #13. Page 1
Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 609
Staff Report Page 2 of 2
1. The increase cannot exceed 5% for each calendar year from the operative date of the last salary adjustment, and;
2. The increase cannot exceed the amount of inflation since January 1, 2024, based on the California Consumer Price Index. The inflation-based increase is capped at 10% for each calendar year.
According to the State of California Department of Finance’s annual population estimates, the City of Glendora’s population in 2023 is 51,159. As such, the City Council could amend salaries form the current amount of $700/month to $1,600/month.
Glendora City Councilmembers have not received a salary increase since 2007. While SB 329 did allow for a one-time adjustment, it did not allow for a one-time deviation from Government Code 36516.5.
Therefore, compensation changes, if approved by the City Council, would not take effect until December 2024 when a new council member or members are seated or the confirmation of the new term for existing council members is passed.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the proposed ordinance in the current fiscal year. If approved, future increases in salary and benefits will be included in the upcoming budgets. It should be noted that the City Council oversees the policy development of the entire City; as such, the salaries and benefits are spread across a number of funding sources.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There are no CEQA impacts associated with the recommendations in this report.

Background
In Fall 2022, the City conducted a successful one-day demonstration project, which utilized curb extensions, a midblock refuge, and updated signage. The goal was to improve safety for students, families, and residents using the crosswalk on Gladstone Street near Washington Elementary. The demonstration project was in response to resident’s concerns over high vehicular speeds and part of the City’s efforts to create and develop safer routes to schools. A survey was taken the day of the demonstration with roughly 40 participants. Questions in the survey included support of proposed crosswalk improvements, and transportation needs and concerns. A majority of survey respondents Item #14. Page 1

omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Contractor in the performance of professional services and work hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professional. The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Contractor and shall survive termination of this Agreement.

6.3 Ownership of Documents.
All drawings, specifications, maps, designs, photographs, studies, surveys, data, notes, computer files, reports, records, documents and other materials (the “documents and materials”) prepared by Contractor, its employees, subcontractors and agents in the performance of this Agreement shall be the property of City and shall be delivered to City upon request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement, and Contractor shall have no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of its full rights of ownership use, reuse, or assignment of the documents and materials hereunder. Any use, reuse or assignment of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of uncompleted documents without specific written authorization by the Contractor will be at the City’s sole risk and without liability to Contractor, and Contractor’s guarantee and warranties shall not extend to such use, reuse or assignment.

request, court order or subpoena from any party regarding this Agreement and the work performed there under. City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Contractor or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding. Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.
ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION
7.1 California Law.
This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.
7.2 Disputes.
(a) Default; Cure. In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on the invoices only when the default is cured. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.
Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
(b) Dispute Resolution. This contract is subject to the provisions of Article 1.5 (commencing at Section 20104) of Division 2, Part 3 of the California Public Contract Code regarding the resolution of public works claims of less than $375,000. Article 1.5 mandates certain procedures for the filing of claims and supporting documentation by the Contractor, for the response to such claims by the City, for a mandatory meet and confer conference upon the request of the Contractor, for mandatory non-binding mediation in the event litigation is commenced, and for mandatory judicial arbitration upon the failure to resolve the dispute through mediation. This Agreement hereby incorporates the provisions of Article 1.5 as though fully set forth herein.
7.3 Retention of Funds.
Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or DocuSign Envelope ID: FA77A67B-3D37-4418-AD3A-DB1CC327F25F Item #14.

Meeting Date: 12/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 662
PW Agreement – Alfaro Communications Construction (Crosswalk Enhancement Improvements Near Washington Elementary School, Plan No.1383) 12/12/23 19
damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.
Acceptance by City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.
Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party.
7.6 Legal Action.
In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Contractor shall file a claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.
7.7 Liquidated Damages.
Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of $1,000 (One Thousand Dollars) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any service required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit “D”). The City may withhold from any monies payable on account of services performed by the Contractor any accrued liquidated damages. Pursuant to Government Code Section 4215, Contractor shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay in completion of the project when such delay was caused by the failure of the public agency or owner of the utility to provide for removal or relocation of utility facilities.

7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.
This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Contractor, except that where termination is due to the fault of the Contractor, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Contractor reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Contractor may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event the Contractor has initiated termination, the Contractor shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non-terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor.
If termination is due to the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Contractor for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.
7.10 Attorneys’ Fees.
If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.
7.11 Unfair Business Practices Claims.
In entering into this Agreement, Contractor offers and agrees to assign to the City all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. § 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, (commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services or materials related to this Agreement. This assignment shall be made and become DocuSign Envelope ID: FA77A67B-3D37-4418-AD3A-DB1CC327F25F Item #14. Page 52

effective at the time the City renders final payment to the Contractor without further acknowledgment of the Parties.
ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION
8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

8.2 Conflict of Interest.
Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Contractor’s performance of services under this Agreement.

8.3 Covenant Against Discrimination.

Contractor shall take affirmative action to insure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry, or other protected class.
8.4 Unauthorized Aliens.
Contractor hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1101 et seq., as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Contractor so employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of work and/or services covered by this Agreement, and should any liability or sanctions be imposed against City for such use of unauthorized aliens, Contractor hereby agrees to and shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with any and all costs, including attorneys' fees, incurred by City.

STAFF REPORT
TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS DATE: DECEMBER 12, 2023
FROM: ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: ADOPT A CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A SELF-INSURED PAID
FAMILY LEAVE POLICY THAT PROVIDES SHORT-TERM WAGE REPLACEMENT
BENEFITS TO ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES WHO NEED TIME OFF WORK FOR FAMILY LEAVE
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Adopt a City Council Resolution establishing a Paid Family Leave Program that provides shortterm wage replacement benefits to eligible employees who need time off work for family leave.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 3: Enhance Employee Development and Retention (EEDR)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A comprehensive benefits packages can be used to attract and retain talent. Family friendly policies are highly valued by employees. Paid Family Leave (PFL) is a benefit that provides partial income replacement to eligible workers who have a full or partial loss of wages due to the need to care for a seriously ill or injured family member, to bond with a new child, or to participate in a qualifying event as a result of a family member’s military deployment to a foreign country.
Protecting employees’ jobs and pay while they manage personal family issues increases employee retention, reduces turnover, and enhances recruitment efforts. It is also essential to ensure that all workers can meet their health and family needs without jeopardizing their employment and income.
Research shows that paid leave increases the likelihood that workers will return to work after childbirth, improves employee morale, and has neutral or positive effects on workplace productivity. Therefore, staff is recommending that the City Council approve the proposed self-insured Paid Family Leave Program.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
City employees paid for California State Disability Insurance (SDI) contributions from their paychecks (approximately 1% of taxable wages), which also included Paid Family Leave. The City would collect these contributions and send them to the State and the State would administer the program.
In January 2021, the City withdrew AFSCME bargaining unit employees from California State Disability Insurance and replaced it with Lincoln Financial Short-Term and Long-Term Disability plan because it was a more robust benefit and costs would be paid by the City, but inadvertently eliminated PFL. The remaining bargaining units were never covered by the State plan or private plan due to program participation being optional.
DISCUSSION
The recruitment landscape continues to change the City’s ability to attract the right candidate for the organization. Staff has encountered many challenges that have made it particularly difficult to hire.

Staff Report Page 2 of 3
Offering a comprehensive benefits package is an important tool for the City to retain employees and be competitive and attractive to qualified candidates. Staff continues to seek and evaluate new benefits that will enhance the compensation package for employees. Paid Family Leave is an additional family friendly policy that is highly valued by the workforce because it supports employee work-life balance.
Prior to January 2021, AFSCME was the only bargaining group in the City that were covered by the California State Disability Insurance, which included PFL. To participate, a payroll deduction is withheld from an employees’ paycheck as a percentage of earnings, and the City sends the collected contributions to State of California Employment Development Department (EDD), who would also administer the program.
Currently, Short Term Disability and Long Term Disability insurance are offered through Lincoln Financial.
This only covers short-term cash benefits to employees who can’t work due to a non-work related injury, illness, or pregnancy, it does NOT include PFL. When considering a PFL program, staff evaluated and analyzed different funding structures and determined that a self-insured program is best suited for the City based on usage and costs in comparison to a private insurance (such as Lincoln Financial).
The proposed Paid Family Leave Program would provide partial income replacement to eligible employees who have a full or partial loss of wages due to the need to care for a seriously ill or injured family member, to bond with a new child, or to participate in a qualifying event as a result of a family member’s military deployment to a foreign country. The City’s proposed program aligns with the State’s PFL program and would provide the following benefits:
Up to 8 weeks of paid benefits.
60% of base salary.
Leave can be taken continuously or intermittently.
To be eligible, an employee must:
Be a permanent employee of the City (including certain part-time positions). Have earned at least $300 in wages from the City within the 12 months immediately preceding the PFL start date.
Have lost wages due to the need to provide care for a seriously injured or ill family member, to bond with a child or to participate in a qualifying event resulting from a family member’s military deployment to a foreign country.
Lastly, PFL can be used in conjunction with other applicable leaves such as Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), California Family Rights Act (CFRA), and Pregnancy Disability Leave (PDL).
If approved by the City Council, the program would go into effect January 1, 2024 and would be retro active to October 1, 2023. The retroactive benefit would apply to 1 AFSCME employee who recently became a father for the first time.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City currently pays approximately $76,900 for STD and LTD for all employees. Similar to the Insurance programs (liability and worker’s compensation), the City must set aside $45,000 at all times in the event of a claim for benefits. This amount was determined based on an actuarial and working with Keenan and Associates, the City’s benefit broker. There are sufficient funds available to meet this requirement. Eligible employees can use this benefit at no cost to them.
