EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. has been providing landscape and weed abatement services to the City of Glendora for four years. Mariposa has submitted a Letter of Intent expressing their desire to continue providing service to the City of Glendora with a 3.0% rate increase for FY 2026/27. This would be the first rate increase since the agreement was originally awarded in 2022. The Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) for the Los Angeles - Long Beach - Anaheim area increased 12.8% over the original four-year term of the agreement. Mariposa continues to meet the service needs of the City and staff believes the requested increase is reasonable. Therefore, staff recommends the City Council approve the renewal of the agreement for an additional one-year period and approve the increase of the spending limit in the amount of of $1,720,000 for FY 2026/27 to a total of $7,011,720.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Request for Proposal (RFP) No. 8172837 for Landscape Maintenance and Weed Abatement Services was released on April 7, 2022 with a bid opening held on May 3, 2022. Five proposals were received and Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. was determined to be the lowest responsive bidder.

On June 28, 2022, the City Council awarded an agreement for landscape maintenance & weed abatement services to Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. in the amount of $1,031,480 per year, for 4 years, in a total amount of $4,125,920, with options for up to three 1-year extensions.

On July 9, 2024, the City Council approved Amendment No 1 to the Agreement adding landscape maintenance for Glendora Unified School District properties to the scope of work in an amount not to exceed $510,900 per year.

DISCUSSION
On June 28, 2022, the City Council awarded an agreement for landscape maintenance & weed abatement services to Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. of Irwindale, California (Mariposa), effective June 28, 2022 for a four (4) year term with an option to renew in one (1) year increments up to a total of three (3) additional years through June 28, 2029.

Mariposa has submitted a Letter of Intent expressing their desire to continue providing service to the City of Glendora during FY 2026/27. Due to substantial increases in labor, equipment, material, and fuel costs over the last four years, Mariposa is requesting an 3.0% rate increase for FY 2026/27. By comparison, the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area increased 12.8% over the original four-year term of the agreement. If approved, Amendment No. 2 will extend the term of the agreement for an additional one-year period through June 28, 2027 with a 3.0% rate increase for routine (cyclically scheduled) maintenance and “extra work” line items. This is the first rate increase since the agreement was originally awarded in 2022.

Mariposa continues to meet the service needs of the City and staff believes the requested increase is reasonable.

Therefore, staff recommends the City Council approve the renewal of the agreement for an additional one-year period and the increase of the spending limit the amount of of $1,710,000 for the extended period to a total of $7,011,720. The expenditure request of $1,720,000 for FY 2026/27 includes $1,519,798 for routine (cyclically scheduled) maintenance and an additional $200,202 for extra work. "Extra work" includes, but is not limited to, irrigation repairs, planting, mulching, and other landscape enhancements.

FISCAL IMPACT
The FY2026/27 Adopted Mid-Cycle Budget includes sufficient appropriations in the various contract services line items in General Fund (F101), Measure E/Z (F103), GUSD (F105), LMD 1 (F203), BID (F204), Measure M (F234), Gas Tax (F255), and Water Operations (F501) for these services.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There are no CEQA impacts associated with the recommendations in this report.

EXHIBIT “A”

SCOPE OF SERVICES
I. Consultant will perform the following Services:

Services required by Glendora include but are not limited to the task outlined below and any other task necessary to perform the required duties. The Landscape Maintenance & Weed Abatement Program (“Contract”) is an outcome-based contract where the City has established specific landscape standards as outcomes. The Contractor is responsible to develop a base bid necessary to maintain the expected outcome standards. The bid is to be presented as what the total cost would be for each site for a 12-month period. The City will inspect the work of the Consultant weekly against the stated standards to determine compliance and payment.

The work to be performed under the Contract consists of the furnishing of all labor, insurance, materials, transportation and equipment needed to perform Landscape Maintenance and Weed Abatement at various locations in the City of Glendora further described in the Scope of Work

TURF MAINTENANCE
Turf shall be maintained with a crisp, clean appearance at all times. Turf shall be mowed weekly in the active growing season and bi-weekly in the off-season of the turf. Bruising or rough cutting of grass shall not be permitted. Mower blades shall be sharp and properly adjusted so that turf is cut to a uniform height. Scalping will not be permitted. Grass cuttings which clump, or windrow shall be removed immediately. Mowing patterns will be changed weekly or however necessary to avoid rutting.

Care shall be taken to avoid damage by mowers to tree trunks, irrigation heads and any other utilities, facilities, or structures within or adjacent to turf areas. Any damage caused by the Consultant ’s negligence shall be repaired at the Consultant ’s expense. Prior to mowing, the Consultant shall ensure that the mower is clean so that no roots, stolon’s, seeds or crowns of foreign grasses are introduced to the turf.

Weeds in turf shall be maintained to a minimum of 1% at any given time. A pre-emergent herbicide shall be applied in the spring to prevent the introduction of crabgrass in the sports fields prior to the soil temperatures reaching 60 degrees.

All litter and debris in turf areas shall be picked up and disposed of properly. Grass clippings may be left behind if dispersed uniformly throughout the turf area.

TURF RENOVATION
Finkbiner’s Lobb Field and Louie Pompei Memorial Sports Park are closed to the public in mid-December for renovation of the natural sports fields. They are re-opened February 1st to allow spring sports to begin. Preparation of the grounds shall start by aggressively dethatching the turf. If dethatching is not needed (to be determined by city designee), mowing to a height of ½” to open canopy and expose soil. Aeration shall be done in two directions to relieve compaction using hollow tines.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1
Spread annual ryegrass at a rate of 10-15 lbs. per 1,000 square feet. Apply half the rate in one direction and the other half in a perpendicular direction. Apply a thin layer of approximately 1/4” of topdressing.

Ensure the turf is watered in thoroughly. Using existing irrigation system, cycles should water the seed enough that it will maintain it moist, but not rot from sitting in water for too long.

Typically, each station is run for about 6 minutes 4 times per day for rotors, also depending on the watering mechanism.

Once all the grass seed has germinated, watering should be reduced, and mowing should resume once the length reaches 2 inches. Fertilize the grounds within the first month to ensure the new seedlings are nourished. Ensure the grounds are not saturated to prevent compaction and ruts.

Any damage related to rutting and compaction shall be corrected by the Consultant . Fencing shall be provided by the Consultant to keep the public out of the newly seeded areas. The City shall provide grass seed only.

INFIELD MAINTENANCE
In the winter, infields are often rutted due to irrigation or winter storm runoff. Once a year prior to the commencement of the softball sports season, Consultant shall level out the ruts to ensure infields are ready for play. The city will provide material if replenishment is required. Lips along the grass edge shall not be permitted.

SPORTS TURF MAINTENANCE
Frequency of mowing will be governed by the species of grass and the growth rate. Turf shall be mowed at least weekly in the active growing season and bi-weekly in the off-season of the turf.

Consultant shall mow the turf a minimum of 52 times per year. Bruising or rough cutting of grass shall not be permitted. Never remove more than one-third of the total leaf surface at a given mowing. Mower blades shall be sharp and properly adjusted so that turf is cut to a uniform height. Scalping will not be permitted unless it is being performed in preparation for seeding. Grass cuttings which clump, or windrow shall be removed immediately. Mowing patterns shall be changed weekly or however necessary to avoid rutting. Care shall be taken to avoid damage by mowers to irrigation heads and any other utilities, facilities or structures within or adjacent to turf areas. Any damage caused by the Consultant ’s negligence shall be repaired at the Consultant ’s expense. Prior to mowing, the Consultant shall ensure that the mower is clean so that no roots, stolon’s, seeds or crowns of foreign grasses are introduced to the turf. All litter and debris in turf areas shall be picked up and disposed of properly. Grass clippings may be left behind if dispersed uniformly throughout the turf area.

A pre-emergent herbicide shall be applied in the spring to prevent the introduction of crabgrass in the sports fields prior to the soil temperatures reaching 60 degrees.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1

MOWING SCHEDULE
Mowing shall be performed as per the schedule below.

Growing Season / Frequency Off-Season / Frequency
March 01 – October 31 November 01 – February 28
Weekly Bi-Weekly
EDGING
All turf areas shall be cleanly edged to the inside (turf side) edge of the concrete median curbs.

All turf growing along public sidewalks and walkways shall be edged to maintain a crisp, clean edge along all such structures. Grass shall also be kept from overgrowing sprinkler heads.

Edging shall also include trimming grass around: poles, utilities, valve boxes, controllers, and any other hardscape areas. Edging shall be done once per week in the active growing season and bi-weekly in the off season of the turf. Edging shall be done with the use of a power edger.

A line trimmer is not appropriate for trimming turf. Soil sterilant or other herbicides shall not be used for edging.

Edging around trees shall be at least 16” away from the trunk. At no time is a line trimmer to be used on or at the base of any City tree.

SHRUBS & PLANTS
Shrubs and plants shall be pruned as necessary to encourage healthy, natural growth patterns for each specific variety. For example – Cleveland Sage shall be pruned back to remove old flowers, Kangaroo Paw stalks are to be cut down to the coppice once they have died and shrub style Redbuds shall be coppiced in the late fall or winter. Pruning is to be done after the plants stop producing new flowers and shall include thinning, shaping, and removing dead or diseased branches.

Unless a hedge is present, hedge trimming shall not take place. Shrubs and plants are never to be cut using a weed eater or hedge trimmers. Bypass pruners are to be used at all times. Shrubs are to be kept in a natural shape allowing for them to get to their mature size. Directional pruning shall be utilized to guide the plants away from valve boxes and walkways.

All shrubs shall be pruned back to clear all roadways, curbs, gutters, and sidewalks. Shrubs shall not block signs, utilities, utility meters or any other facilities located within the work areas.

Shrubs shall not block access to controllers or electric valves and shall be pruned to minimize blockage of irrigation head spray patterns. Shrubs which may restrict visibility, such as those adjacent to left hand turn lanes or those within 100 feet of any intersection shall be kept within the height range of 12” – 24” as measured from the street level.

GROUNDCOVER
Turf Type Spring Height Summer Height
Ryegrass 2.0” 3.0”
Bermuda 1.0” 1.5”
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1
Groundcovers such as but not limited to, gazania, rosemary etc., shall be kept trimmed behind top of curb lines, kept off pedestrian walkways, out of curb and gutter areas, kept out of interplant shrubs and trees, trimmed to keep all signs, poles, guardrails, and utility meters clear, and kept from encroaching in any way into private property or onto private property fences.

Grasses, weeds, sucker growth, or any other growth shall be removed from groundcover to maintain a neat and clean appearance. Groundcover which may restrict visibility, such as those adjacent to left hand turn lanes or those within 100 feet of any intersection shall be kept within the height range of 12” – 24” as measured from the street level.

The Consultant shall clear sidewalks and roadways of plant material after cutting to maintain a clean, neat appearance. All leaves and debris are to be picked up and disposed of by the Consultant . No leaves and debris are to be blown into planters, streets, gutters etc.

TREES
Trees which are staked shall have supports kept in good repair. Any broken or damaged supports or ties shall be replaced as soon as possible. Staking shall remain in place until trees are fully capable of self-support at which time they are to be removed. Stakes and ties shall remain on tree roses at all times. Trees which have low hanging, diseased, dead or broken branches shall be trimmed by the Consultant . Branches overhanging traffic lanes shall be kept side trimmed to face of curb line and to a height of 14 feet. Branches overhanging pedestrian routes shall be kept trimmed to a height of 8 feet above walkway level. All pruning work by the Consultant must comply with the latest ANSI Standards.

Any tree stakes, tree ties, and/or guy wires needing replacement shall be replaced with new materials at the expense of the Consultant . Nursery stakes are not an acceptable form of staking. If a tree does not currently have a tree well, the Consultant shall cut one out. Mulch shall be placed at a 16” diameter around the base of the tree to eliminate contact with string trimmer. This 16” area shall be maintained free of grass and weeds.

All trees shall be pruned by qualified personnel using horticulturally sound methods with ANSI Standards. Trees shall be pruned to develop a structurally sound shape and a healthy, natural appearance. No excessive pruning or stubbing back will be allowed. Sucker growth originating at the trunk or root zone shall be removed.

Trees knocked down by vehicular accidents or trees and large limbs blown down and blocking traffic lanes shall be immediately reported to the City, which shall have responsibility for cleanup of such trees and large limbs.

Anytime personal property of a motorist or pedestrian is damaged due to falling trees or limbs, the Consultant shall notify the City Police Department immediately as well as the City Designee. Any small branches which fall or are blown from median plantings, causing no damage, shall be removed and disposed of by the Consultant .

When trees are newly planted, the preferred method of irrigating is using a spiral of drip line emitters. As the tree grows, the Consultant shall open the spiral to the dripline to encourage roots to grow outward. The spiral shall be staked in place and covered with mulch.

LEAF LITTER/BARK MULCH
DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1
Leaf litter shall be mulched with a mower throughout the year. Large concentrations of leaves may require pickup at the City’s discretion. Rakes are preferred for leaf litter removal over blowers. Leaf litter shall not be allowed to accumulate to the point that it will damage or kill turf.

Leaf litter that is removed from turf shall either be chopped and used on-site or transported to a plant debris recycling facility. Leaf litter on mulched sites such as the medians, shall be blown in a pile and picked up.

Bark mulch shall be replenished at a minimum depth of 4”, and a minimum of once a year at all sites where it currently exists, and more if needed. Mulch shall be supplied by the City.

Sites with rubber mulch (Grand Ave Medians etc.) shall continue to be refilled with rubber mulch which will be provided by the City.

IRRIGATION
Irrigation shall be accomplished using automatic or manual irrigations systems at the majority of the sites. Consultant shall be responsible for monitoring irrigation system malfunctions or leaks and repair shall be made immediately if possible and at best, within one week. If the repairs are not made immediately, the irrigation is to be turned off until the repairs are made so that water is not continually lost. If the Consultant fails to repair irrigation leaks reported or otherwise after one week, the Consultant will pay $25.00 dollars per day, per site until the repairs are complete.

Due to water restrictions, automatic controllers shall be programmed for watering between the hours of 10.00pm and 6:00am only. During the summer months watering may occur up to three times per week. All other times, the City waters approximately 1–2-day days per week, depending on the type of irrigation and plant material. Automatic controller programs shall be adjusted to compensate for changes in the weather and site conditions. If the weather prediction is at 70% of chance of rain, Consultant shall turn the system off. Excessive run-off of water must be avoided. Water shall not be allowed to pond or create a water-logged soil condition.

Wasting of water or use of City furnished water for means other than those directly related to maintenance of this project shall be prohibited.

Precautions shall be taken to prevent water from wetting pedestrians, vehicles and pavement.

Any soil washed onto pavement shall be cleaned up and any eroded areas shall be filled in at the Consultant ’s expense.

MANUAL WATERING
If the irrigation goes down for any reason, the Consultant is responsible to manually water the site until the irrigation restores the system.

IRRIGATION SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Most of the City’s irrigation systems are maintained using the Rain Bird IQ System.

Finkbiner Park and Louie Pompei Memorial Sports Park are maintained using the Rain Bird Maxicom System. There are a number of battery-operated clocks as well as one solar clock that are not a remote system. The Consultant will work directly with the City to establish clear guidelines as it relates to these weather-based systems. The controllers at each site shall be DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1
inspected by the Consultant monthly. The Consultant shall coordinate with the City to ensure that the irrigation systems are properly set to avoid over-watering, especially days prior to scheduled mowing. It is the Consultant ’s responsibility to ensure that the system is operating correctly and that there is adequate coverage. All irrigation mechanisms shall be kept cleaned to ensure that the irrigation heads are not being blocked and the irrigation heads are adjusted to maximize coverage and minimize overspray and watering onto the roadway or pedestrian pathways.

All electric valves shall be kept flushed clean of sediment and debris and shall be maintained in proper working order. Valves shall be kept well-adjusted to ensure efficient operation of the irrigation system. The Consultant shall also keep the controllers/boxes clean and free of insects and dust and shall make any and all necessary repairs or replacements. The Consultant s responsibility begins after the backflow device and includes, flow sensors, master valves etc.

Drip system filters shall be cleaned at least every three months.

Any and all irrigation parts such as sprinkler heads, emitters, valves etc., that are repaired/replaced must be consistent with what is currently in place. When making repairs to sprinkler heads and drip emitters, they must be the same at each section to ensure that we get the most accurate flow readings.

The Consultant shall be responsible for general maintenance of the irrigation system including inspection, maintenance and repairs, piping, wiring, spray heads, drip irrigation, electric valves, and automatic controllers. All irrigation parts and materials which are damaged or broken must be fixed by the Consultant and shall be reported to the City monthly. The Consultant is responsible for any damage caused by the Consultant or any unknown entities. If the City makes any irrigation repairs due to lack of timeliness on the part of the Consultant , the cost including parts and labor shall be charged against the Consultant ’s monthly account.

No modifications may be made to the existing automatic irrigation system without express written approval of the City (designee). Approved changes shall be noted by the Consultant on a copy of the Irrigation plan and submitted to the City within five (5) working days of the completion of the work.

In the event of a drought condition, the City shall have the authority to modify the watering requirements described in these specifications. The City shall notify and meet with the Consultant to discuss any possible impacts the modified watering schedule may have on the Consultant ’s obligation to provide excellent services.

PLANT LOSS
It is one of the Consultant ’s prime responsibilities to prevent loss of plants caused by pests, diseases, insects, soil conditions, nutrient, micro-climatic conditions, improper planting, or problems in watering do to broken irrigation.

Consultant agrees to be continuously alert in locating and defining problems and agrees to exercise prompt and proper corrective action.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 07CD88A7-7037-437D-A130-0D296E8C5B91 A-1
Consultant agrees to replace, at the Consultant ’s cost, any dead, stunted, or damaged plantings that are the result primarily of the Consultant ’s negligence. Plants lost from Consultant ’s negligence shall be replaced, at the Consultant ’s expense, within thirty (30) days of discovery.

Replacement plants shall be comparable in size to the lost plant up to a maximum size of a twenty-four (24) inch box, or if smaller, the size shall be approved by the City.

The Consultant shall not be held responsible for plant losses due to maladies beyond the Consultant ’s control; this includes, but is not limited to, disease or insect attack for which there is no legal recommended control, acts of vandalism, earthquakes, fires, storms and related events. Consultant shall report all such conditions to the City in writing within seventy-two (72) hours of occurrence and submit a proposal for the work or repairs along with the costs.

The Consultant shall obtain City’s written permission/direction or authorization prior to proceeding with the work. Failure to notify the City within 72 hours of occurrence will result in replacement at the Consultant ’s cost as if the cause was Consultant negligence.

The City shall approve all replacement plants that differ in species. However, it is agreed that replacing plants shall not be used by the Consultant as a substitute for proper care. The City will consider Consultant negligence a major breach of contract with full responsibility for costs and losses.

Dead plants and those in a state of decline shall be brought to the City’s attention immediately.

All new plant material and irrigation installations or repairs shall be guaranteed for a period of ninety (90) days for unhealthy plant installation and/or poor workmanship. Exceptions include damage or death of plant material due to wind or storm, or vandalism, theft, or other willful acts over which the maintenance Consultant has no control. Existing plants shall be replaced by Consultant if they die due to Consultant ’s negligence. All replacement plants and materials shall be inspected and approved by City prior to installation.

WEED CONTROL
All areas within the work sites are to be always kept free of weeds and volunteer tree growth.

This includes but is not limited to, all bare dirt areas and any weed growth within ground cover, shrub plantings and cobblestone/hardscape areas in all the Consultant management zones.

Pedestrian walkways, medians and other hardscape areas are to be always kept weed-free; this includes the area that extends two feet from face of curb into the street area.

The streets projects include grind and overlays on three segments of Route 66, Sunflower Ave. from Arrow Hwy. to 210 Freeway, Valley Center Ave. from Arrow Hwy. to Juanita Ave., and grind and overlay or slurry seal on Juanita Ave. from Glendora Ave. to Sunflower Ave. Additional funding was also allocated to expand the existing slurry seal program. The facilities projects are spread across thirteen facilities and include roof replacements, HVAC upgrades, electrical and plumbing upgrades, parking lot rehabilitation, and other miscellaneous repairs.

The City has engaged Transtech to complete the engineering and design work necessary for the streets projects.

The bid package will be completed in 60 days and the projects are tentatively scheduled to go out to bid in early fall with construction expected to commence in early 2027. The facilities projects will be packaged over the next month followed by bid and contract documents as needed. On July 14, 2026 City Council authorized the appropriation of $3,000,000 from the sale of the San Jose/Woodland site into a project account in Fund 301 to begin funding the streets and facilities work.

The next steps include the appropriation of $9,000,000 from the sources at outlined below into a project account in the Capital Projects Fund 301 for the remaining funding of the streets and facilities work.

Staff will create two projects to identify the streets and facilities funding separately to be allocated to as specific projects enter design and move into construction. Individual project information will be included with the next Quarterly Capital Improvement Program update in September.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding to for the remainder of project costs identified at Workshop 1 is needed in Fiscal Year 2026/27 in Capital Projects Fund (F301) in the amount of $9,000,000. Sufficient funds are available from reducing the General Fund Contingency Reserve, and re-prioritizing capital projects within the Glendora Unified School District Joint Use Agreement Fund (GUSD JUA) and Capital Projects Fund. Additional increases in estimated revenues and supplemental appropriations will be necessary to record the transfers to move the funding from the General Fund and GUSD JUA Fund to the Capital Projects Fund.

E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y
Where Glendora Stands Today
Stability restored
Organizational modernization, Measures E
& Z, and pension restructuring eliminated a
$3.5–$4M deficit and earned a AAA bond
rating.

Needs remain
Significant facility, street, and
infrastructure needs persist — well
documented through years of studies and
assessments.

A rare opportunity
Fiscal prudence created one-time funding
capacity to address a meaningful share of
those needs — without a new tax.

Any additional one-time funding would draw from deeper within the City's reserve structure — most notably the pension set-aside. This is a fundamentally different fiscal stance than Workshop 1.

RECOMME NDED SAFEG UARDS BEFORE AD DIT IO NAL ALLO CATIONS • Evaluate restricted resources (special revenue, grants, enterprise funds) first • One-time funds only for discrete, one-time capital scopes • Pair any reserve draw with an identified replenishment source — and evaluate its timing risk • Establish a minimum pension reserve floor unavailable for capital purposes The trade-off: a defined, temporary reduction in recession flexibility for permanent avoidance of construction cost escalation. Workshop 3 will provide the structure for this conversation.

Recommendation
That the City Council:

1. Authorize a supplemental appropriation of $9,000,000 to Capital Projects Fund, account 30100990- 70000, for construction of streets and facilities projects identified at Workshop 1; and

2. Authorize the necessary budget adjustments.

STAFF REPORT

STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
N/A

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Glendora’s (City) tree maintenance services (12,000+ trees) are overseen by the Public Works Department’s Trees Division. The City’s current agreement with West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA) expired June 30, 2026.

WCA entered an agreement (Attachment D) with the City of West Covina (West Covina) on November 18, 2025 that specifically includes cooperative purchasing language, and WCA indicated their willingness to extend this pricing to Glendora.

After analyzing the prices WCA and other tree maintenance contractors provide West Covina and other surrounding cities, and based on WCA’s history of providing high level tree maintenance services to the City, staff recommends entering an agreement (Attachment A) with WCA based upon the West Covina pricing for a five-year term, in an annual amount not to exceed $760,000, and authorize the City Manager to execute the the agreement.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Glendora Municipal Code (GMC) § 2.40.100(c)(8) states that "when services, except for professional services, can be procured from a contractor who offers the same or better price, terms and conditions as the contractor previously offered as the lowest responsive bidder under competitive procurement or negotiations conducted by the city or another public agency, provided that, in the opinion of the designee, it is in the best interests of the city to do so".

West Covina issued a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 2026-01) on July 10, 2025, seeking qualified contractors to provide comprehensive tree trimming and maintenance services. West Covina received seven (7) proposals by the submission deadline. A three (3) person review panel evaluated the proposals based on qualifications, experience, proposed work plan, understanding of the city’s needs, and cost competitiveness. After thorough evaluation of the written proposals presentations and interviews, WCA was determined to be the most qualified firm to provide the required services.

On November 18, 2025, the West Covina City Council awarded an agreement for tree trimming and tree maintenance services to WCA. This agreement has a 5.5 year term with fixed unit costs through June 30, 2028.

WCA has agreed to offer the City of Glendora the same price, terms and conditions offered to West Covina for a 5- year term with fixed unit costs through June 30, 2028. Starting July 1,2028, the unit costs may increase by the percent increase of the Consumer Price Index, up to a maximum of 4% per year.

DISCUSSION
Approximately 12,000 trees are growing in parks, parkways, easements or rights-of-ways, or on other City-owned property, and are maintained by the Public Works Department. These trees comprise 143 genera and 254 unique species, illustrating a diverse urban forest which enhances its resiliency against pests or pathogens. Routine tree maintenance is essential to promote tree health, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and mitigate risks associated with falling limbs or tree failures. Emergency response services are also a critical component, ensuring the City can respond quickly to storm damage, disease, or other urgent tree-related safety hazards.

Glendora has utilized WCA for tree maintenance since 1999, and they have provided a consistently high level of service to the City. They have an extensive understanding of the City’s unique urban forest needs, and the expertise which establishes them as an industry leader in the region, serving over 350 public agencies throughout California and Arizona.

The current agreement with WCA expired on June 30, 2026. Staff explored the option of drafting new specifications and posting a Request for Proposals (RFP) for these services. After reviewing proposals received by other cities in the area over the past year, staff determined that rebidding these services would likely result in significant price increases. Staff then explored the possibility of piggybacking on tree maintenance agreements recently awarded or renewed by other local municipalities. The majority of local cities contract with WCA for tree maintenance services.

The City of Azusa awarded an agreement to Northstar Landscape on December 1, 2025 and an agreement with Mariposa Landscapes for tree maintenance services was presented to the Pomona Council on July 6, 2026.

Though no action was taken on the latter agreement, it was included in the analysis to provide an additional cost comparison.

Of the various city contracts held by WCA, the agreement awarded by West Covina on November 18, 2025 best meets the needs of the City at the lowest cost. The estimated annual cost for tree maintenance utilizing the West Covina agreement was then compared to the cost under the Azusa and Pomona agreements to ensure cost competitiveness. After analyzing the pricing of the West Covina, Azusa, and Pomona agreements (Table 1), staff recommends entering an agreement with WCA based upon the West Covina contract. To determine the estimated annual cost, staff analyzed the City's tree maintenance operations for the past three years, and projected the estimated annual cost for each agreement to identify which would be most cost effective for the City (Table 1).

West Covina, in compliance with the it’s procurement requirements, issued RFP No. 2026-01 (Attachment B) on July 10, 2025, seeking qualified contractors to provide comprehensive tree trimming and maintenance services. West Covina received seven (7) proposals by the submission deadline, August 14, 2025. A three (3) person review panel evaluated the proposals based on qualifications, experience, proposed workplan, understanding of the City’s needs, and cost competitiveness. The top five (5) bidders were invited to interview and present their tree inventory / maintenance software applications and were provided with specific questions to be addressed during their presentation. After thorough evaluation, WCA was determined to be the most qualified firm to provide the required services.

After determining WCA was the most qualified firm, West Covina negotiated with WCA for an agreement term of five-and one-half (5.5) years that maintained the pricing of their prior agreement through June 30, 2028, with a maximum allowable CPI increase of 4% annually beginning July 1, 2028. WCA has agreed to extend these price terms to the City. The pricing for the first two years of the agreement are approximately 2.5% less than the City's agreement that expired on June 30, 2026.

Awarding a new agreement to WCA based on the West Covina agreement eliminates the administrative cost of posting an RFP and reviewing responses, assures continuity of the services the community expects, and Glendora will continue to enjoy the benefit of the resources WCA has available to address emergencies that may arise from rain and wind events, or other emergencies as they arise.

Contractor hereby waives its own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.
(g) Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non-estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

(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 Contractor’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. Contractor 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 Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this Section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the Project will be submitted to City for review.

(a) Contractor will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any of said claims or liabilities (with legal counsel approved by City) and will pay all costs and expenses, including legal costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith; (b) Contractor will promptly pay any judgment rendered against the City, its officers, agents or employees for any such claims or liabilities; and Contractor agrees to save and hold the City, its officers, agents, and employees harmless therefrom; (c) In the event the City, its officers, agents or employees is made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against Contractor for such damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform the work, operation or activities of Contractor hereunder, Contractor agrees to pay to the City, its officers, agents or employees, any and all costs and expenses incurred by the City, its officers, agents or employees in such action or proceeding, including but not limited to, legal costs and attorneys’ fees.

In addition, Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from, any and all claims and liabilities for any infringement of patent rights, copyrights or trademark on any person or persons in consequence of the use by the Indemnified Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 PW Agreement – West Coast Arborists (Citywide Tree Maintenance) 08.25.2026 16 Parties of articles to be supplied by Contractor under this Agreement, and of which the Contractor is not the patentee or assignee or has not the lawful right to sell the same.

Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify City hereunder therefore, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof. This indemnification includes claims or liabilities arising from any negligent or wrongful act, error or 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.

Contractor’s obligations under this Section shall apply regardless of whether or not such claims or liabilities were caused in part or contributed to by the City or any Indemnified Parties. In instances where City or its Indemnified Parties is shown to have been actively negligent and where City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of the City.

5.4 Notification of Third-Party Claims.

City shall timely notify Contractor of the receipt of any third-party claim relating to the work under this Agreement. City shall be entitled to recover from Contractor its reasonable costs incurred in providing such notification.

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, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Project Manager. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on such invoices only when the default is cured to the satisfaction of the City. 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.

Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 PW Agreement – West Coast Arborists (Citywide Tree Maintenance) 08.25.2026 20 (b) Dispute Resolution. This Agreement 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. Additionally, Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code prescribes a process for negotiation and mediation to resolve disputes on construction claims. 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 and the intent of this Section is to implement Sections 20104 et seq. and Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code with respect to any such claims by Contractor. This Section shall be construed to be consistent with said statutes.

For purposes of these procedures, the term “claim(s)” means a separate demand by the Contractor, after the City has denied Contractor’s timely and duly made request for payment for extra work and/or a time extension, for (A) a time extension, (B) payment of money or damages arising from work done by or on behalf of the Contractor pursuant to this Agreement and payment of which is not otherwise expressly provided for or the Contractor is not otherwise entitled to, or (C) an amount the payment of which is disputed by the City.

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 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 $_________ (___________________________ Dollars) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the services 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. 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 effective at the time the City renders final payment to the Contractor without further acknowledgment by the Parties.

ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

No officer or employee of the City shall be personally liable to the Contractor, or any successor in interest, in the event of any default or breach by the City or for any amount which may become due to the Contractor or to its successor, or for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement.

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.

Below are descriptions of the types of work may be assigned to the Contractor. All general requirements for pruning shall be followed.
a) Grid Pruning – Grid pruning means routine tree pruning per pre-designated districts/grids on a scheduled cycle or any grouping of seven (7) or more trees near one another, within an approximate 200-yard radius, and shall be paid as grid pruning even when off the regularly scheduled district/grid plan.
b) Full Pruning – The objective is to improve tree structure, reduce wind sail effect, allow for improved light penetration, provide proper clearances, and to remove dead or other undesirable limbs.

Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 01240.0006 2162462.2 7/2/2026 A-13
Selective pruning shall be implemented; any or all pruning techniques shall be applied depending on the requirements of each tree. These include structural pruning, crown cleaning, crown thinning, crown reduction, crown raise and crown restoration. c) Crown Raise – In areas where raises are specified, no other type of pruning shall be done. A crown raise is removal of lower branches only, to provide proper height clearance. Fourteen (14) feet clearance is required over streets, where applicable. Nine (9) feet clearance isrequired over parkways and sidewalks. Eleven (11) feet clearance is required over equestrian trails. To avoid destroying the natural structure of small trees, they shall not be raised to the aforementioned specifications. Instead, such trees shall be pruned to reduce the length of the obstructing limbs. d) Crown Cleaning – In areas where cleaning is specified, no other type of pruning shall be done. Crown cleaning is the removal of dead, dying, diseased, broken and weakly attached branches. Crown cleaning shall also include crown raise, when needed to provide proper clearance.
e) Crown Reduction – In areas where height issues are specified, no other type of pruning shall be done. Crown reduction is used to reduce the height and/or spread of a tree.

Thinning cuts are most effective in maintaining the structural integrity and natural form of a tree and in delaying the time when it will need to be pruned again. The lateral to which a branch or trunk is cut should be at least one-half the diameter of the cut to be made.
f) Palm Pruning – Palm fronds are to be removed so that a 90-degree angle is achieved.

The angle shall be measured from the horizontal axis of the growing point base.

All dead fronds, flower stalks and fruit stalks shall be removed and cut as close to their base as possible without damaging adjacent fronds or trunk tissue. Loose petioles from previous pruning operations shall be removed carefully.

When pruning palms in the Phoenix genus it is imperative to sterilize all pruning equipment to avoid possible tree-to-tree transmission of the disease Fusarium oxysporum.

32. SELECTIVE PRUNING
When performing any of the types of pruning, it is imperative to employ selective pruning to prevent over pruning. If any tree in an assigned area requires a lesser amount of pruning than what has been assigned, only that which is necessary will be performed.

33. TREE REMOVALS
a) All tree removal operations shall be in strict accordance with the methods prescribed by the International Society of Arboriculture.

Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 01240.0006 2162462.2 7/2/2026 A-14
b) Trees designated for removal by the Public Works Department Representative will be marked with a dot, using white paint, on the trunk, just above the root collar of the tree.

If for any reason there is doubt regarding the trees(s) to be removed, the Public Works Department Representative will be contacted before work commences. c) Felling is permitted provided it can be safely achieved without endangering surrounding property and will not interfere with vehicular traffic. A tag line(s) shall be used to direct fall always. All bystanders shall be kept at a safe distance from the work site.
d) Trees too large to fell shall be removed in sections. Each section shall be cut into a size that can be handled easily and safely by one tree worker. If section is too heavy for one worker, it shall be rigged and lowered to the ground. The means of lowering shall be acceptable to the Public Works Department Representative. e) Stump grinding shall be incorporated with the removal of the tree and performed on the same day. The underground service alert regional notification center (Dig Alert) must be called prior to the start of the removal list, to allow enough time for each site to be marked before work begins.
f) The depth of stump grind shall be no less than eighteen (18) inches below lowest surface grade. The grind shall comprise the entire stump below soil surface and any uplifted portion of the soil caused by the root flare. Exposed roots, whether in the public right-of-way or private property, shall be traced and ground or chopped out to a depth of no less than eight (8) inches below the lowest surface grade. If irrigation is damaged it shall be repaired immediately. The site shall be backfilled with a mix of 60% soil and 40% of the remaining wood chips; then firmly tamped down to allow for aslittle settling as possible. All excess wood chips and soil shall be hauled away. When complete, the work site shall be level and at the original soil grade of the surrounding area.

34. TREE PLANTING AND STAKING
a) Trees to be planted by the Contractor shall comply with the Specifications for Procuring Container Grown Landscape Trees (Appendix A attached hereto). b) All trees shall be planted according to the standards prescribed by the International Society of Arboriculture. Contractor shall comply with the standard plan for tree planting, as per Standard Plans for Public Works Construction (SPPWC), Std. Plan No 518-3, Sheet 2 .
c) Contractor shall comply with DigAlert requirements, as set forth in California Government Code section 4216 et seq., before the excavation of any tree-planting site. d) Prior to planting, the natural root flare must be identified. Any soil that may be covering the root flare must be removed. The planting hole shall be dug to a size of two times the width of the root ball, leaving the bottom firm, to prevent the tree from settling. The container shall be removed carefully to prevent root or stem damage; the tree shall not be pulled by the stem. If the container does not come off easily, it shall be cut on one Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 01240.0006 2162462.2 7/2/2026 A-15
or more sides, from top to bottom, to allow its removal. Circling roots shall be separated and spread outward. Densely matted roots that cannot be teased apart shall be cut cleanly in two places.
e) The tree shall be lifted by the root ball only and carefully placed in the planting hole.

The root ball shall be oriented so that the tree stands vertically, with the top of the root ball approximately one to two inches higher than the soil grade. Backfill shall be native soil only with no rocks greater than three inches diameter. Soilshall not be placed on top of the root ball. Contractor shall displace air pockets in the backfill by moderately tamping with shovel handle and watering in. Contractorshall check for settling and add backfill if necessary. To avoid compaction of the soil, Contractor shall not tamp the backfill with excessive pressure or use broad, heavy objects. f) Any tree that can stand upright without support and would be able to withstand prevailing winds along with yearly Santa Ana wind occurrences shall not be staked. g) If upon determining a tree cannot support itself, two stakes of good quality treated lodge pole pine not exceeding eight (8) feet in length and no more than two and one-half (2.5) inches in diameter shall be used. The stakes shall be placed in a northwest / southeast configuration to give maximum support during heavy wind conditions and placed outside the root ball, avoiding any damage to roots. Stakes shall be pounded down until sufficiently stable. The top of the stakes interfering with branch structure shall be cut off below the lowest branch where the tree’s growth habit permits. h) Trees shall be tied to stakes using rubber cinch ties, thirty-two (32) inches in length, attached by a method of a figure eight loop between the tree trunk and each stake. Ties shall be attached to stakes with galvanized nails driven into the stakes. A minimum of two (2) ties shall be used, placed high enough on the trunk to support the crown.

Additional ties shall be placed lower on the trunk if needed to straighten. Ties shall be taught enough to prevent trunk from rubbing against the stakes, but with a modest amount of slack to allow movement of the tree. Ties shall not be placed in branch crotches.
i) A plastic guard shall be placed loosely around the base of the trunk. j) A watering basin shall be placed around the outer edge of the root ball in areas where water-runoff will occur. The basin shall be in the form of a tightly compacted soil berm, three inches in height. A watering basin is not required on turf or dense groundcover.

35. STAKING ONLY
The Contractor shall stake any tree that is unable to stand upright on its own, whether the existing stakes have become loosened, damaged, incorrectly installed, or where the stakes are absent. This work shall be performed in any area where the Contractor is pruning or where otherwise directed by the Public Works Department Representative. All the standards shall be followed.

36. STAKE REMOVAL
Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 01240.0006 2162462.2 7/2/2026 A-16
The Contractor shall remove stakes from trees that have achieved enough stability and grown to at least three (3) inches diameter at breast height (DBH). The stakes should be pulled completely out of the ground when possible; otherwise, the stakes shall be cut down below grade and backfilled with soil.

All undamaged tree stakes will be re-used. Any excess tree stakes that are suitable for re-use shall be returned to the City. The Contractor shall dispose of all damaged tree stakes.

Stake removal shall be performed in any area where the Contractor is pruning, at no charge to the City.

37. REMOVAL OF BRUSH AND DEBRIS
The Contractor shall be responsible for the removal and disposal of all debris, such as wood, branches, brush, chippings, and any other material resulting from tree maintenance operations.
a) Contractor must comply with all State and local laws and regulations applicable to and governing such disposal.
b) Disposal of all Eucalyptus wood infested with the larvae of the Eucalyptus Long Horned Borer shall comply with the requirements of California Public Resources Code section 4714.5.

38. TREE WATERING
Watering is to be performed by a one-man crew with a water truck for newly planted trees for the first year after initial planting or when the tree is determined to be established.

Watering will occur along various routes including landscape medians, parkways, parks, and City facilities. At the discretion of the Public Works Department Representative, older trees will be included on a watering schedule to be provided by the City.

39. ARBORIST SERVICES
On occasion, the City requires tree evaluations including written reports. Upon request by the City, the Contractor shall prepare detailed arborist reports, tree risk assessment reports, tree evaluations and site inspections. Reporting may be requested on as little as one tree to an entire Urban Forest population and is handled on a case-by-case basis.

40. MILLING
On occasion, the City may request for some of the removed urban forest material be milled down for special projects. The Contractor shall such services upon request. Milling can be performed on or off site.

PROPER IDENTIFICATION
All trees shall be true to name as ordered or shown on the planting plans and shall be labeled individually or in groups by species and cultivar (where appropriate).

COMPLIANCE
All trees shall comply with federal and state laws and regulations requiring inspection for plant disease, pests and weeds.

TREE CHARACTERISTICS AT THE TIME OF SALE OR DELIVERY
A.TREE HEALTH

1. Trees shall be healthy and vigorous; free of injury from biotic (insects, pathogens, nematodes, etc.) and abiotic agents (herbicide toxicity, salt injury, improper irrigation, etc.).

Shade trees of lesser quality have two or more leaders or trunks, which compete against each other. Branches that have narrow angles of attachment and co-dominant stems tend to break at the point of attachment, especially when associated with included bark. Trees purchased from the nursery should have a single, relatively straight central leader and tapered trunk, free of co-dominant stems that compete with the central leader. The central leader should not have been headed.

However, in cases where the original leader has been removed, an upright branch at least ½ (one-half) the diameter of the original leader just below the pruning point shall be present.

Docusign Envelope ID: 7159C910-6840-87F0-810B-F3824EBCCBB4 A-18
Co-dominant stems with Included Bark

GLOSSARY
Co-dominant - Two or more vigorous and upright branches of relatively equal size that originate from a common point, usually where the leader has been lost or removed.

Crown - The aboveground part of the tree including the trunk.

Cultivar - A named plant selection from which identical or nearly identical plants can be produced, usually by vegetative propagation or cloning.

Girdling root - A root that partially or entirely encircles the trunk and/or buttress roots, which could restrict growth and downward movement of photosynthate and/or water and nutrients up.

Included bark - Bark embedded within the crotch between a branch and the trunk or between two or more stems that prevents the formation of a normal branch bark ridge. This often occurs in branches with narrow-angled attachments or branches resulting from the loss of the leader. Such attachments are weak and subject to splitting.

Kinked root – Is a primary root, which is sharply bent, causing a restriction to water, nutrient, and photosynthate movement. Kinked roots may compromise the structural stability of roots systems.

Leader - The dominant stem which usually develops into the main trunk.

Photosynthate - Pertains to sugar and other carbohydrates that are produced by the foliage during photosynthesis, an energy trapping process.

Root collar - The flared area at the base of a tree where the roots and trunk merge; also referred to as the "root crown" or "root flare".

Shall - Used to denote a practice that is mandatory.

Should - Used to denote a practice that is recommended.

Scaffold branches - Large, main branches that form the main structure of the tree.

Temporary branch - A small branch that is retained temporarily along the trunk of young trees.

Temporary branches provide photosynthate to increase trunk caliper and taper and help protect it from sunburn damage and mechanical injury. Such branches should be kept small and gradually removed as the trunk develops.

Trunk - The main stem or axis of a tree that is supported and nourished by the roots and to which branches are attached.
