Subject: Waive the Second Reading and Adopt Ordinance No. 2023- 05, Authorizing the Amendment of Authorized Services
and the Levy of a Special Tax Lien
Presented By: Carla Jauregui, Community Development Director Approved By: _________________________
City Manager
Staff Recommendation:

Waive the second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2023-05, authorizing the Amendment of Authorized Services and the levy of a special tax lien.

Background and Discussion:

The City of Hughson Citywide Public Safety and Maintenance Services Community Facilities District was formed for the purpose of levying a special tax, paid by new development, to help offset the costs of providing public safety and maintenance services for certain improvements, which are detailed in the Authorized Services portion of the Rate and Method of Apportionment for the CFD.

The Amended CFD will provide funding for the following:
• Police services
• Fire protection and emergency services
• Landscape maintenance
• Street maintenance, including street sweeping
• Streetlight maintenance
• Sidewalk, curb, gutter and storm drain facilities maintenance • Parks.

The following steps have already been performed, in accordance with the CFD Code, including those at the October 9th and December 11, 2023 City Council meetings:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 3.3
SECTION 3: CONSENT CALENDAR

1. A Petition to form a CFD was signed and submitted by the property owner on September 14 of this year.

2. The Boundary Map for the District was recorded at the County Clerk Recorder’s Office on January 5, 2023. The District boundaries did not change.

3. A Resolution for the Consideration to Amend the Authorized Services within the CFD was adopted.

4. An Amended Resolution Calling for a Special Election on the proposed Amendment to the CFD was adopted.

5. A public hearing was conducted on December 11, 2023, allowing for testimony on the proposed amendment to the CFD where the results of the ballot tabulations were read and the Amended Resolution Declaring the Results of a Special Election was adopted, as well as the Resolution Authorizing the Amendment of the CFD and the First Reading of the Amended Ordinance Authorizing the Amendment of Services and the Levy of Special Taxes took place.

If approved, this ordinance will take effect thirty (30) days after adoption.

Fiscal Impact:

The CFD should have no impact on the City’s General Fund, as these special taxes are to be borne by the property owners within the District.

The maximum annual special tax rates for fiscal year 2024/25 are as follows:

Taxable Property Type Maximum Special Tax
Single-Family Attached $1,156.40 per parcel
Single-Family Detached $1,156.40 per parcel

Subject: Approval of a Contract with MHK Construction for the Installation of a Sewer Lateral at Lebright Fields, and Authorization for the City Manager to Execute the Contract Enclosures: Lebright Sewer Lateral Site Plan
MHK Proposal
Presented By: Jose Vasquez, Interim Utilities and Public Works Superintendent
Approved By: ____________________________
City Manager
Staff Recommendations:

1. Approve the contract with MHK Construction for the installation of a sewer lateral at Lebright Fields for $39,998 with a 10% contingency.

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract and MHK Construction, inclusive of any final edits by the City Attorney.

Discussion:

On March 27, 2023, the City Council approved the Lebright Renovation project including the new restroom/concession stand, paving and striping the parking lot including required storm drains, and an ADA pathway around the outside of the park with cutouts that will allow a wheelchair to turn around.

On June 12, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-29 awarding the contract for the purchase and delivery of the restroom/concession stand to Structure Cast. While the building was ordered and in the construction process, staff proceeded with the demolition of the existing concession stand and the site preparation. Through this process, staff discovered that the existing concession stand was linked to a French drain only, which is not suitable for raw sewage. The existing concession stand drained grey water and no sewage; however, the new building contains restrooms and must be disposed of through the City’s sewer system.

Three proposals to install approximately 360 linear feet of 6-inch sewer lateral from the site to Fox Road (Attachment 1-Site Plan) including the tie-in at an existing CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM 4.1
SECTION 4: UNFINISHED BUSINESS
manhole, asphalt patchback, and concrete patchback were obtained and MHK Construction was the lowest at $39,998.

The three proposals received include:

MHK Construction $39,998
CG Construction $45,680
Thompson Wooley $48,000
Environmental Review
This project is categorically exempted according to Title 14, Chapter 3, Article 19 of the Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), in accordance with Section 15301 “Existing Facilities.” Fiscal Impact:

The total cost to install the sewer lateral is expected to be $39,998 with an additional 10% contingency. This project will be funded through Park Development Impact Fees (Fund 453) and/or Parks-In Lieu of Fees (Fund 454). The Parks Development Impact Fee (Fund 453) has a current balance of $401,000 and the Parks-In Lieu of Fees (Fund 454) has a balance of approximately $682,400. The remaining costs of finalizing the Lebright Project will be paid out of these two funds.

Subject: Adoption of Resolution No. 2024-01, Ratifying the Execution of the Professional Services Agreement with
Quality Service Inc., for Water and Wastewater Consulting Services
Enclosures: Professional Services Agreement
JSWWC Contract Termination Letter
Presented By: Carla C. Jauregui, Community Development Director Approved By: _________________________
City Manager
Staff Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 2024-01, Ratifying the Execution of the Professional Services Agreement with Quality Service Inc., for Water and Wastewater Consulting Services.

Background and Discussion:

The City of Hughson has contracted with JSWWC Water and Wastewater Management (JSWWC) since 2014 to fulfill critical roles, including Acting as Grade 3 Wastewater Treatment Plant Chief Operator, Water Distribution Operator II, and Water Treatment Operator II consultant for the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and public water system, as well as provide emergency coverage in collaboration with the City's certified water and wastewater personnel. This partnership was established as the City lacked personnel with the necessary certifications. These roles are pivotal in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of essential facilities, directly impacting the community's access to clean water and the proper treatment of wastewater. A qualified contractor not only brings expertise and experience to these roles but also plays a vital role in emergencies, providing essential coverage in collaboration with the City's certified water and wastewater personnel. This collaborative approach ensures a comprehensive and wellcoordinated response to unforeseen events, safeguarding the integrity and functionality of the water and wastewater systems which are critical components of a community's well-being and infrastructure. During the week of December 25, 2023, JSWWC was unable to offer the emergency coverage required by the City due to the Wastewater Treatment Plant Operator being on an unforeseen leave of absence.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. 6.1
SECTION 6: NEW BUSINESS
Consequently, the City has had to seek an alternative contractor and terminate its contract with JSWWC effective December 23, 2023.

Recognizing the critical importance of maintaining optimal operation for water and wastewater facilities, the City of Hughson took proactive measures by collaborating with Tom McCoy of Quality Service, Inc. A seasoned professional with an impressive 24 years of experience, McCoy and his team are now actively involved in providing operational and maintenance services, offering crucial support to the City's Water and Wastewater facilities and operations. Notably, Quality Service, Inc. staff possesses the State required certifications, including Grade III Wastewater, Grade II Water Treatment, Grade II Water Distribution, and Cross-Connection Specialist, ensuring a comprehensive skill set for the effective management of the City's facilities.

Beyond operational aspects, Quality Service, Inc. is poised to contribute significantly by offering comprehensive consulting services and regulatory guidance. The responsibilities encompass well-site checks, collaborative wastewater rounds with City staff for troubleshooting, review of the computer SCADA system, implementing necessary system changes to optimize operations, and the preparation and submission of crucial reports, such as the Evaluation and Assessment Report (EAR) and Drought Report. The scope of the commitment extends to water sampling, providing essential training for City staff, overseeing the water and wastewater systems as the acting Chief Operator, and offering valuable assistance with system issues, improvements, preventative maintenance programs, and addressing deferred maintenance challenges.

This strategic collaboration underscores staff’s commitment to overcoming challenges, including the imperative task of seeking qualified and dedicated personnel to fill crucial positions. The city is actively looking to fill this position inhouse with a qualified individual but has, unfortunately, been unsuccessful to date.

However, the staff remains dedicated and will continue to diligently recruit to secure a certified and qualified team player willing to work harmoniously alongside the existing team. Staff’s commitment to comprehensive and effective management of the City’s essential water and wastewater systems remains unwavering.

Fiscal Impact:

The fiscal impact of consulting services for the water system and the WWTP is estimated to be $100,000 annually. It is important to note that this is an approximate figure based on anticipated initial costs also associated with deferred maintenance that will need to be addressed. The Agreement will continue to be funded from the Water and WWTP funds and is included in the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Budget.

Funds will be budgeted annually for the consulting work at the Wastewater Treatment Plant and the public water system.

Subject: Termination of July 1, 2021, Professional Services Agreement Dear Mr. Steeley,
As you are aware, JSWWC Water & Wastewater Management (“JSWWC”), in an Agreement dated July 1, 2021, (the “Agreement”) contracted with the City of Hughson (the “City”) to provide professional and technical services to the City and its water and wastewater systems as described in the Scope of Work found in Exhibit A of the Agreement.

It has come to the City’s attention that JSWWC has failed to perform in accordance with the Agreement’s Scope of Work. Given the impacts on the public’s health and regulatory standards for the City’s water and wastewater systems, the City aims to mitigate risks due to JSWWC’s nonperformance.

Consequently, this letter is to formally notify JSWWC of the City’s decision to terminate the Agreement pursuant to the provisions outlined in the Agreement, specifically Sections 16.1 and 16.2.

As per Section 16.1 of the Agreement, the City reserves the right to terminate the Agreement for any reason upon thirty calendar days' written notice to JSWWC. Furthermore, in accordance the terms specified in Section 16.2 of the Agreement, if termination occurs due to failure of performance by JSWWC, then JSWWC shall be compensated for work satisfactorily performed up to the date of termination. The City is committed to honoring its obligations and ensuring fair compensation for services rendered up to this point.

Therefore, the City expects all work under the Agreement to cease immediately and request the prompt return of any City data, documents, objects, materials, or other tangible items in your possession pertaining to this Agreement.

The City of Hughson expresses appreciation for any satisfactory work completed thus far and anticipates a smooth transition as we conclude our business relationship. Please coordinate with Carla Jauregui at [email protected] regarding the logistics of concluding our engagement and finalizing any outstanding matters. Please send your last invoice within 30 days for payment.

Should you require further clarification or wish to discuss this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience.

Sincerely,
