Our team is comprised of highly capable individuals with extensive experience in municipality, nonprofit and luxury brands. We are specialists who bring unique skill sets and big ideas to the table.

Cord Media’s clients are located throughout the United States, representing various industries: resorts, home builders, nonprofits, municipals, retail and restaurants. This knowledge makes us the perfect partner for all your production and advertising needs.
When it comes to marketing, we are acutely aware of the never-ending need for brand awareness, promotion and publicity. So, what sets us apart from other agencies? Unlike most of our competitors, we are a full-service agency with everyone under one roof. Having an in-house team allows for constant communication between all departments every day.
We look forward to helping The City of Indio not only meet but exceed its marketing goals. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.

their customers gives us the insights into what
products, features and information should be
highlighted in order to drive a conversion, tell
a story, or increase loyalty. Whether via survey,

Ultimately, we deliver a plan that utilizes the most effective media, in the right mix, at the right time, within budget.

OVERVIEW
Owned and operated by the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians, Soboba Casino Resort sits on over 200 acres near San Jacinto, CA with more than 2000 slot machines, seven restaurants, PGA-rated golf course and 200 room resort hotel.
Soboba retained Cord Media as Agency of Record and tasked us with developing new creative, a branded advertising campaign and a comprehensive marketing plan to guide traditional and digital media buying.
SOLUTION
After a previous media buying agency had significantly underperformed, Soboba was looking for immediate, radical improvement in their media buying strategies. Within 30 days, Cord Media developed a new media plan for the casino that was based on the existing budget to ensure a quick and easy transfer.
Analysis of their target market, combined with our understanding of best practices, led to a combination of new tactics based on complex layers of demographic and geographic targeting, and new creative messaging. The results were immediate.
Having to overcome hurdles in their previous reporting, building an accurate attribution model was challenging. As an indicator of advertising effectiveness, we analyzed search volume for their brand name, which was up 46% in the first 30 days, and interaction with their Google map listing, including clicks to call and directions, which was up by 210,000 total views compared to the previous month. Clicks to their website were up 45% in the first 30 days as well.
A new, branded advertising campaign is currently in development that is expected to further improve these traffic numbers when launched in Q4 2021.

OVERVIEW
The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens is a nonprofit, accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, ensuring the highest standards of all aspects of animal care, education, conservation, public service, and operations. The Zoo is active in conservation research, habitat protection, breeding programs and education initiatives around the world, as well as in its own community. The Zoo has been a top attraction in the Palm Springs area for more than 50 years.
Cord Media has been The Living Desert’s agency of record since 2013.
Throughout the years we have successfully created and executed numerous creative campaigns and marketing initiatives, acting as an extension of their in-house marketing department. Yet, how do you keep things fresh? How do you keep the momentum going, especially during these times of COVID?
SOLUTION
The key to our success has been a stable internal team working day in and day out on the account – to ensure brand and messaging consistency. We have also been able to identify key strategy points to focus on: - Build On Your Success - Attract More Regional Visitors To date, we have helped The Living Desert increase park attendance yearover-year.

Eleven parcels and 16 buildings comprise Fisherman’s
Harbor. In addition to residential, the Port anticipates:
The Port has already accumulated a significant list of
interested residents awaiting its development. Everett’s historic vacancy levels at 2.6% coupled with a strong
employment base (unemployment of less than 4% as
of 6/15), demonstrates the need for housing in this
region and signals a direct demand for new housing in
Waterfront Place Central (O’Connor Consulting Group).
• 47,300 sq. ft. retail
• 155,500 sq. ft. office
• 13,000 sq. ft. restaurant
• 86,000 sq. ft. hotel
Along the harbor’s edge there are four restaurants with patios and an outdoor restaurant and fish market. The
largest structure in the district is the 120 key hotel with meeting space, a restaurant and cocktail lounge. The
diversity in restaurants allow visitors and residents to enjoy a meal while they settle into the marine environment.
The District includes nearly 12 developable
acres and is a year-around hub of activity
that highlights commercial fishing and
recreational boating while creating a
unique shopping area and dining that
attracts residents and regional visitors.
The District acts as the City’s international
gateway and includes a number of signature
open spaces. Along the waterfront, the
walking path connects to an elevated
patio for restaurants along the water
and two gangways allow visitors to walk
among fishing vessels and a guest dock.
Construction on the site infrastructure
began in 2015.
At Fisherman’s Harbor, the project’s first residential
uses (parcels A9 and A10) emerge along Seiner Drive.
Building heights here range from 35 to 45 feet,
providing an opportunity for 204 apartment housing
units. Amenities and improvements planned for the
Port of Everett’s site produce significant demand for this highly desirable neighborhood with spectacular water
and mountain views and recreation access.
INFRASTRUCTURE 13th Street is a 90-foot wide roadway with parking and transit stops, while Seiner
Drive and 14th Street are 80-foot pedestrianoriented streets. A new traffic signal at 13th Street will be installed as traffic volumes
necessitate.
PARKING
The District features nearly 1,000
parking spots in its final condition,
with at grade parking structure
lining the backs of apartments and
the hotel and a surface lot adjacent
to the wharf.
BIKE TRAILS
The 15-foot wide bike
and pedestrian paths
connect the Esplanade to
the 4.5 mile Waterfront
trail in either direction
from Fisherman’s Harbor.

The inner harbor pedestrian areas adjacent
to the commercial fishing fleet emphasize
the presence of, and access to, the
authentic workings of a commercial fishing
community and industrial waterfront.
Fishing boats moor along the wooden
wharf and opens to a brightly colored open
air fish market stalls and places for people
to sit and watch fishermen come into
port to unload their hauls. Site furniture
are a hybrid design of traditional and
contemporary styles reflecting a historic
yet contemporary waterfront. Light fixtures
angle like fishing poles to reference the
mast arms on seiner boats and furniture
suggests wood crates and crab pots are used
as inspiration for an authentic experience.
“Everett’s strong employment base
(unemployment at less than
4% as of 6/15) signals a direct
demand for new housing in
Waterfront Place Central.
”
The primary entrance to the Waterfront Place neighborhood is at 13th Street. The street lined with flag poles salute the Port’s international trading partners.
The central gathering point and heart of the entire Waterfront Neighborhood is Pacific Rim Plaza at the end of 14th Street.
This formal park and a splash plaza adjacent to the hotel site and the water’s edge. The plaza features monuments to significant community partners and sister communities, while the flags of foreign countries tell the story of the Port’s international commerce.
At Fisherman’s Harbor, the walking path connects visitors to elevated patios for restaurants and two gangways provide public access to the water along the Dock Walk. Radio controlled boats regattas on the R-C course and a dingy track below the Plaza provide entertainment for both observers and participants.

In some cases when the size of the logo is under 1/2”, the tagline may become unreadable, and may need to be removed.
When placing the logo on a red or dark background the tagline font should be changed to white. No changes to the primary logomark is needed.
Additionally, a black and white version of the logo should also follow the same guidelines for tagline color.

RE: “Video Services” RFP Category to Support Team Indio Dear Scott Trujillo, Deputy City Manager,
Goodsides LLC (hereafter “Goodsides”) understands the dynamic media needs as expressed by the City of Indio (“City”) in its procurement. Please consider the following as a new invitation to better reach visitors and spark nationwide interest. We hope your stakeholders are ambitious!
Goodsides is privately owned and solely media enhancement for public agencies and institutions, setting us apart from others in the space. We are immediately native to tourist concerns and issues and have seemingly endless compatibility, including access to b-roll libraries pertaining to outdoor activities in Coachella Valley, shopping, and more.
Goodsides is uniquely suited for this project, and major highlights include:
A Dedicated, Super-Regional Team. We proudly work across LA and Riverside counties. People/Creative Resources. This helps to capture the hearts and minds of specific audience segments. Each award comes with a concept catalogue after the first month. A Certified MBE and SE with Good Hearts. Goodsides is active with those small but impactful productions other media houses turn down because of “threats to their margin.” Our prime directive is to serve where the team is most needed. Actual GOV Partnerships. In addition to our 6 ISD bench contracts, we work with Southwestern College, County of Riverside, University of Missouri, Los Rios Community College District, LA Public Library, City of West Hollywood, City of San Luis Obispo, City of Sacramento, and 100+ cities under MTC’s administrative purview. Concepts Queued Up. No miscellaneous fees related to concept creation or ideation.
Compliance and Capability Statement
Goodsides affirms full compliance with all requirements and dedicates its full capability.
Our DP / Cinematographer / GOVsides Value
Our very own Uri Ruffin and Mike Norquest have been part of digital shotlights with Barack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, US Senators, the Coen Brothers, Mayors in CA, and more.
Using their talent, there is ample opportunity to portray human-centered stories without teleprompters, greenscreens, and blown-out areas caused by harsh sun. We want your video stories to feel more local, relevant, and targeted.
Video Recommendations and Partnership
The driving concept of each media asset will be collaboratively made, and this associated meeting time, pre-production, and vision commissioning is blended into our total fixed rate for ease. We are excited to showcase the value that our partnership will provide.
Respectfully,
Louis Easton, Co-Founder and CEO

for decades) about your unique community and
light a spark for the land of festivals.

Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 699 of 764 Philosophy Towards the Project
Media this important should have all the tools to
seriously participate in the attention economy.
Strengths Coming In
1. Elevating and building off already ambitious
plans for outreach or community betterment.
2. Facilitating real behavioral shifts from our media.
Equal Opportunity & DEI Commitment
Goodsides is a certified Minority Business Enterprise
(MBE), and actively works to incorporate a diversity
of voices, faces/bodies, perspectives, orientations,
and communities into our final video deliverables.
Even when our .GOV clients suggest names and/or
places for interviewing, we spend time vetting these
during the pre-production phase. Further, scripts and
on-screen content pass through multiple checkpoints
to ensure accuracy and cultural appropriateness.
We are advocates for telling stories that require a
little more nuance, sensitivity, or comfortability, which we handle in a variety of ways. Most of the time, it
merely takes asking the right questions or spending
that extra hour with the interviewee to get the best,
most ground-shaking sizzle, and these have power
behind them.
We aim to grow a video-for-governments ecosystem
that only supports organizations with loud and bold
equity-first policies. When accepting subconsultants
or working with suppliers, Goodsides only engages
with these types of committed third parties.
Moreover, our CEO makes sure that a balanced
representation is maintained in the company, even
as people join or become associated with our
video product. A Goodsides production is a public
statement that social equity has been prioritized. This is further exemplified by our website footer, which
reads that Goodsides is an “Advocate for Social
Equity.”
If the subject matter relates to an “erasure” of X
monument, movement, or congregation (just to name
a few examples), we are sensitive to the perception of
this information. And if the erasure event was really
just displacement, we want to showcase that as well.
Minority and Female Recruitment
Anti-bias refresher training occurs once per year.
Similarly, recruitment and/or vetting a contractor,
partner, etc. starts with examining their holistic
backgrounds and experiences. If we are working
with a partner/subconsultant firm on a project,
Goodsides routinely audits their diversity policies and employment counts.
Another thing that we are proud to promote:
Minorities and women receive priority whenever
mentorship opportunities are offered to the
communities we serve. Our internal mandate
promotes multiple good deeds each year (like
mentorship to aspiring directors, etc.). In this vein,
we are actively nurturing/developing skills to then
promote our employees who identify as women.
Coalition Building and Collaboration
We welcome the different arrangements and eclectic
working styles of our colleagues in the MARCOM
world, nonprofit world, etc. We are determined to
only work with those trusted and reputable partners
that have general liability insurance, valuable and/
or noteworthy contributions to add, and where
coalitions are a clear win-win-win for all stakeholders involved. If we are showcasing a residence, we come
prepared with a bilingual English/Spanish pamphlet
addressing who we are, why we are there, and
provide points of contact for questions. This has been
shown to support our coalition efforts more broadly.
We always follow up with gratitude and provide
‘Thank you’ videos when possible.

Goodsides was hired to assist the City of Sacramento with video production, website recommendations, concept development, and digital postcards. This was the first time that the Preservation Office worked with an agency of our caliber to tell the story of why preservation should be a public concern. Videos were formatted into:
Teacher Module (roughly 15 minutes)
Shot on 4K | Voiceovers | Local Talent | Entire SAC History Realtor Module (roughly 15 minutes)
Shot on 4K | Wireless Audio | Local Talent | Outdoor/Indoor Contract Amount: The City received a grant to complete two video modules, and we received 100% of the $27,000 allocated. Production dates spanned September and we finalized videos in January, 2022.
Soon after receiving the award, we structured the project around the power of video and had several conversations with City officials regarding the feasibility of certain shots, scenes, script details, and how they could best assist with the production. Pre-production took roughly 30 hours and led to a commissioned storyboard and script for both video modules. The scope of the production included one day for location scouting and 4 cinematic production days covering over 15+ locations. All services tied to video were successfully completed and approved after 160+ hours of post production.
Scheduling was handled using a budgeted pre-production coordinator and management process. All shots happened on “A” days (as opposed to alternative days) with the talent we had planned to use.
Similarly, edited footage was swiftly provided upon request.
The City paired our team with a local subcontractor, MJ Designs.
After this successful case study, we are now partners and bidding on regional projects together.
All Goodsides personnel were involved in Sacramento deliverables.
We managed to secure archival footage under the projected amount, with very little fees. The full NTE grant was observed without change orders.
Major Highlights
• Our Teachers Module won Gold
for 2022 Government Video from
Hermes Creative Awards.
• We understood the desired length,
voice, substance, audience, and
historical weight involved with these
productions prior to activating the
production phase.
• We brought various extras to the
table, including a Thank You video
for City officials to share with
volunteers.

Video Strategy and Increasing Regional Awareness
Throughout Coachella Valley
Regional messaging - especially when targeting various
demographics - must be able to compete in the attention economy and encourage deeper discussions; we are at the forefront of this important work of garnering interest while so many are learning/ working from home and prime for targeting.
Estimate of Time Required
Goodsides has factored in 10 production days per year, plus ad hoc days requiring filming of b-roll and/or City council meetings.
Combining planning time, production days, and editing, we estimate roughly 750 hours per year.
Working with the Schedule Identified
All resources and personnel will be sourced from in-house (no subcontractors or rentals will be needed), therefore, quick turnarounds are possible. Along with shotlists and scripts, we promise high amounts of engagement, with a focus on distribution strategy, taking full advantage of pre-shot b-roll, archived still frames, archived historical assets (visual, auditory, etc.), volunteer/artist knowledge, and more. Logging and concurrent tasks will function to save us time for plenty of revisioning and collaboration on both production ends.
Anticipated Challenges and Mitigation Strategies
In 2022, we have seen that our city partners are over-stretched and already have an intense workload. Given this reality, we will not rely only on volunteers from stakeholder groups, but go outside of this commonly used pool to procure on-screen talent with more availability. Each volunteer will be properly compensated and commended for their efforts.
Our Process for Measuring ROI
Video is already the most impactful media form you can use to empower CTAs and kickoff campaigns in a real way. Using views and analytics, we can retarget segments of your population to boost ROI.
Quality Performance
• A strong cadence of progress and
update reporting will come from our
day-to-day.
• Non-shoots and activities such
as planning, scheduling, concept
ideation and storyboarding, will
occur remotely from our HQ where
we fine-tooth comb check quality.
• 24/7 availability and a fresh set of
KPIs, finalized after our first meeting.
Cost Control
• NTE observation and other cost
controls are always active.
• Our extensive partnerships ensure
the best pricing possible. We even
have a “fast food” pricing menu
for those quick productions not
requiring pre-production.
Responsiveness
• Same-day concepts and quotes.
• Requests are handled by our
executive team first; no assistant
taking calls or directing clients.
• We ensure each phase is met with
a formal commissioning process to
be responsive to SOW and contract
requirements.
Coordination with City Staff
• We have already laid the ground
work with local agencies.
WORK PLAN
City of Indio | Video Services Category Proposal 12
Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 705 of 764 Activities to Complete Video Goals
It is Goodsides’ intent to produce final products
that meet the objectives of City. To assure
achievement of this goal, adjustments to this
approach can be made. Services will be performed
by all team members and include:
PHASE 1 - TAILORED PRE-PRODUCTION
Laying the right groundwork is essential for
developing a great video. Pre-production is where
we strategize the game plan tailored to your
project. In collaboration with City stakeholders,
we establish the video concept, the look/feel, and
style. We write the script (or receive it from City
personnel), cast our talent, decide on the location
and set design, and lock down all of the other
details involved. Activities include:
Research, Consultation/Kickoff Meeting
Creative Approach Conceptualization, Scripting
Crew, Cast, Equipment for Voiceovers, etc.
PHASE 2 - PRODUCTION
Now that the roadmap has been developed, it’s
time to put it all together in front of the cameras.
This is where our professional crew of directors of
photography, camera operators, sound engineers,
and lighting technicians do what they do best - film
a great video. Activities include:
Shooting Cinematic Video
PHASE 3 - POST PRODUCTION
The editorial team shapes the story, making sure that
the video is on track with the City conceptual plan/
vision. On top of plain language tests, we will make
sure our video proofs hit the mark with regional
audience tests and listening parties. Importantly, we
will use b-roll libraries of your areas and demographics where possible to save time and costs, but also to
re-adjust scenes based on the above feedback.
At this stage, City will see their first cut. Activities include:
First Edit/Rough Cut
Second Edit
Voice Over, Subtitling, Translation, Transcription, ASL Picture Lock
Sound Mix, Color Correction, Graphic Design
PHASE 4 - FINAL REVISIONS
Once City has reviewed the first cut(s), stakeholders
will have ample time to share their thoughts with us.
Revisions are carefully managed using collaborative
tools, and revision histories are visible throughout this phase.
PHASE 5 - DELIVERY ON TARGET
Following sign-off and approval, we then create
high-quality files of your video(s) that can be used for various formats. We provide various platform-specific
dimensions and durations, as needed, without being
prompted for these custom specifics. Deliverables
include:
Closed-Captioning, ADA Compliance, etc.
Final Video Submission in All Formats Requested
Project Commissioning
Social Media Integrations and Hand-off with Digital

The Power of Video
No other medium can inspire and shape

quite like video. Video moves fast
and communicates complexity in
seconds; this is why using Goodsides to
encourage wider engagement with City

To Whom it may Concern,
MJD Greenlight Consulting (MJD Consulting) is a Sacramento based Strategic Program Development and Communications consulting firm, dedicated to connecting education leaders and cultural resources management providers to diverse stakeholders. We specialize in supporting local governments as well as small businesses and nonprofits led by people of color and women.
As the CEO, I am delighted to be writing this letter of support for Goodsides, LLC. I assisted the company on a City of Sacramento Public Awareness Education project for the Historic Preservation division in 2021 (RFP P21211221001.) As a subcontractor for the project, I appreciated the consistent communication the Goodsides team provided. Additionally, as a Northern California native, and 10-year resident of Sacramento, I found that they brought a new level of innovation to the Historic Preservation community of Sacramento, California. I was very impressed with the team’s professionalism, marketing, and planning of the project from scripts to story boards, and location scouting.
I often share with industry professionals that anyone can be a contractor, but to be considered a consultant you need to be flexible, a master problem solver, and open to innovation. The Goodsides team goes above and beyond for their projects and are true media consultant contractors.
I look forward to partnering again with Goodsides, LLC. on future projects for MJD Consulting as well as for our nonprofit CULTURPHORIUM, Inc. Should the opportunity present itself, I highly recommend working with Goodsides LLC.

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to recommend Goodsides LLC for your upcoming video production project. We recently worked with Goodsides to develop an introductory video for our organization. During the process of that video, the Goodsides team were professional, efficient, and dedicated to our project. They came out and spent a half day filming our organization in various settings, taking our ideas and then adding their expertise on how to best accomplish what we wanted. They then took the footage and edited it into two different videos that we were able to use for marketing early on in our organization. The end product was incredible, going above and beyond expectations to ensure a quality end result that we could use for many years to come.
A few of the specific details that stood out to me were their attention to detail, ensuring that every aspect of the production was to the highest quality. Their dedication to the project as they really invest in their work and try to understand the bigger picture, not just the individual project.
Lastly, their passion for what they do. Every member shows up with a smile and is enthusiastic about their work which makes the process of working with Goodsides easy and fun.
As we grow as an organization, we look forward to partnering with Goodsides again as they have played an instrumental role as we have started out. I highly recommend them and would be happy to answer any specific questions you may have.
Thank you,

Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 711 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 Creative Services • Communication • Web • Social Media • Photography • Video • Design 2 Executive Summary
Thank you for the opportunity to present Tripepi Smith’s offerings in response to the City of Indio’s request for communications and marketing services. This proposal offers the full array of Tripepi Smith services related to delivery on the requested needs of the City.
Tripepi Smith is a team of over 40 communication experts—robust enough to offer experienced and effective professionals for the job, yet small enough to be nimble and responsive. We offer a spectrum of skills that allows us to match the appropriate resource to the task at hand, letting us execute faster and reduce engagement costs. These resources vary by both years of experience and core hard skills (graphic design versus videography versus writing versus social media, for example). The result: we have an ability to tell a complete story across mediums, all within our one team. The City will only need one communication partner.
Tripepi Smith is a force multiplier for the communication operations in cities across California. From Napa to Pismo Beach to La Cañada Flintridge to Carlsbad and out to Indian Wells, Tripepi Smith is actively working with dozens of city governments and public agencies. We gain insights from the breadth of our work and share that knowledge with our city clients. No other communication firm has the city client depth and diversity that Tripepi Smith offers. Our firm is unique, mixing technical prowess and policy competency, which yields key advantages:
1. No other public affairs firm in California (that we can find) has the certifications in social media and digital platforms that Tripepi Smith has. These certifications evidence our superior understanding of these platforms.
2. The breadth of Tripepi Smith’s team—from policy to photography and videography—is rare. This experience benefits each of our clients as we can consolidate practical field experience to deliver insights and ideas for each new client.
3. Tripepi Smith’s work with dozens of public agencies and municipal partners positions our team to communicate about the spectrum of issues known to local governments. Moreover, team members understand how to relate these issues to all stakeholders, including city staff, city council members and residents.
We look forward to the opportunity to help tell the story of the City of Indio for the benefit of its residents, businesses, partners and visitors.
Respectfully,
Ryder Todd Smith

FIRM BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE
Projects of Similar Scope
Tripepi Smith is currently actively engaged with dozens of local government agencies throughout California.
The following are just four sample engagements that align with the services and scope the City has indicated it could need help with.
1. In the City of Duarte, Tripepi Smith works with the city manager’s office in a broad and consistent engagement to advance communications and augment the work of staff. The baseline engagement includes writing press releases and articles, updating the City website, managing social media, redesigning and creating the quarterly City News newsletter, developing a style guide, hosting quarterly strategy meetings with department heads, delivering monthly metric reports, advising staff on the City’s upcoming website redesign and auditing City communications in an express assessment report. Duarte previously engaged Tripepi Smith for its first communications assessment as well as for videography, photography, drone, graphic design and email marketing services.
Date Completed: Ongoing retainer
2. Tripepi Smith has been engaged with the City of La Cañada Flintridge (LCF) for more than six years as their contract PIO service. LCF is a small contract city with less than 30 full-time staff.
They contract for an array of services, such as public safety, engineering and inspection services. LCF conducts weekly phone calls with Tripepi Smith to plan communications regarding upcoming community issues and for social media posts. Tripepi Smith monitors community Facebook groups to identify emerging issues early on. A core deliverable of our engagement is a quarterly newsletter that is mailed to every household in the city. The LCF Vista is a three-panel, 8.5” x 11” format newsletter that the City completely relies upon Tripepi Smith to produce. Tripepi Smith plans the editorial calendar with senior leadership, interviews subject matter experts to write the stories, designs all layout and custom graphics, and lastly, manages the printing and mail house process to ensure timely delivery to residents. This print newsletter is one of the primary drivers for community education and outreach. In late 2019, LCF selected Tripepi Smith as its website developer of choice through an RFP process. Our team executed and launched a new WordPress website for the City. LCF has also called on Tripepi Smith for additional graphic design, custom stock photography, video production and video livestreaming to social media.
Date Completed: Ongoing retainer; website redo (December 2019)
3. The City of Indian Wells has engaged Tripepi Smith on a retainer basis to provide project management, social media management, monthly metrics reporting, graphic design support, content production, website content updates and strategic communications planning.
Date Completed: Ongoing retainer
4. Tripepi Smith works with the City of Palm Desert on RCV Education, which includes identifying and targeting appropriate community members and groups for engagement, conducting

Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 726 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 17 PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
Tripepi Smith begins all engagements with a kickoff meeting with the client to: introduce personnel to one another, define Key Performance Indicators (metrics, goals and timelines); review project management processes and tools; and ensure each team member has a full understanding of their responsibilities.
Tripepi Smith primarily uses the following tools to manage projects:
• Google Suite for email, creating real-time collaborative documents and instant messaging; • DialPad or Zoom for conference calls;
• Sprout Social for social media management;
• Meltwater for social media and media monitoring;
• Mavenlink for project/task management, internal project status updates and time entry.
These project management tools enable project manager(s) to quickly determine a project’s budget status, review the schedule of tasks and send rapid notifications to the whole team if issues arise.
Outside of regular check-in calls, the City may contact Kaitlyn Wu, account manager, with any questions, requests or issues. Kaitlyn will then swiftly relay instructions to the rest of the team. Should a serious issue arise that could impact a deliverable, she will arrange a meeting with all team members to discuss potential solutions. For example: if more resources are needed to execute on a deliverable or speed up a process, Tripepi Smith can immediately tap into its internal talent pool.
Principal Ryder Todd Smith will also be available 24-7 to address the City’s needs.

Retainer Engagement
Bi-Weekly Check-In Calls & Content Planning
To coordinate our efforts with City Staff and sustain momentum on projects, Tripepi Smith will schedule a recurring, one-hour bi-weekly phone call that will include a City-designated lead for our engagement. These weekly calls will help drive content planning for various communications channels, including website articles, press releases and social media posts and stories. Call content will focus on story plans, new issues or concerns that need to be communicated, identification of major themes or ideas to address in the coming weeks, review of recent media mentions and social media comments and sharing of communication opportunities uncovered from scanning city council agendas. This will be a working call during which Tripepi Smith will manage an agenda and provide notes for each call. After each call, the client will receive an action summary email about decisions made on the phone call and related action steps. We will produce work, such as press releases and article drafts, in a shared workspace where the City can see our progress in real time and provide instant feedback as needed. These tools allow for enhanced collaboration and expedite the production process.
Social Media Management
Content Creation: Social media content creation involves: planning, fact-checking, sourcing graphics, grammar checking and scheduling the post. Tripepi Smith will create up to three (3) posts per week over the course of a month (or generally 12 a month) and distribute them on up to five (5) platforms (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Nextdoor).
Monitoring: Tripepi Smith will monitor inboxes for questions and comments. When appropriate, responses will be drafted, which will occasionally require fact-checking and seeking out guidance from the City.
Additional: Our work also includes optimizing social media accounts to boost performance and keeping up to date on the latest social media platform updates and options. Boosted posts and targeted ads are also helpful in disseminating information to community members, and Tripepi Smith is fully capable of running and tracking these paid campaigns (fees to be agreed upon and paid by the City).
Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 728 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 19 Monthly Dashboard Metrics Report
Each month, Tripepi Smith will provide a summary report in PDF format of the basic metrics (reach, posts, engagement, etc.) related to City-controlled social media platforms and other key metrics if available, such as website visits and e-newsletter platform metrics. This will help us evaluate the success of our efforts as well as serve as an ongoing feedback mechanism for gathering valuable insights that can help inform ongoing communication strategy.
Public Relations (News Articles & Press Releases)
Tripepi Smith can draft news articles, press releases and/or official statements, which are typically up to five hundred (500) words in length. The City would direct the allocation of stories with Tripepi Smith’s suggestions, making internal subject matter experts available to aid the development of the stories when needed. Additionally, this assumes the City would provide a media and external agencies notification list for use by Tripepi Smith where a press release scenario is desired. The City would also facilitate timely approval of quotes in the release when connected with City Staff or City Councilmembers.
Quarterly Communications Calendar Planning Sessions
The main goal during these two-hour meetings is that each department identifies key communication opportunities and wins to celebrate in the next 6-12 months. We document all this into a shared spreadsheet/editorial calendar that can then serve as a roadmap for the organization to track communications opportunities–or to hand off to the communications team to execute. The exercise breaks down barriers between departments and often helps senior staff recognize communications opportunities they were simply unaware of before. The process also includes Tripepi Smith preparing and giving a presentation that covers notable communications wins to review what has worked well. We conduct these meetings on a quarterly basis to refresh our 12-month calendar and stay apprised of the upcoming communication priorities.
Additionally, Tripepi Smith will curate a content calendar with staff that can be shared with media contacts.
Graphic Design
Tripepi Smith uses Canva extensively for basic social media graphics and therefore can use our Junior Business Analyst resources for that work. Where more extensive design is requires, Tripepi Smith has an Art Director, Senior Graphic Artists and Graphic Artists. In our experience, these costs can vary widely based on iteration count, number of pages of content to layout or desired number of logo options or extent of a particular branding process. In all cases, we assume written content is being provided; this estimate is for design costs only.
Optional Retainer Add On Work: Newsletter
Monthly / Quarterly Newsletter
Digital Newsletter:
Tripepi Smith has email marketing design experts with access to the complete Adobe Creative Suite to make any Constant Contact email template stand out. We will create one email template inside of Constant Contact for monthly or quarterly newsletter use. Email is another avenue to distribute the news article content that is created every month; it’s inexpensive, prevalent and a solid way to reach engaged residents. We can use existing email lists collected from the City’s utilities and/or Parks & Recreation. The scope of the digital newsletter includes writing up to seven articles to build the content for what will actually go in the newsletter.
Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 729 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 20 If we deliver a Constant Contact newsletter, we suggest the format be that we post the articles to the Indio website, then link snippets of the articles from a Constant Contact email. Tripepi Smith’s scope is to both design the Constant Contact newsletter, provide editorial calendar planning services, write the articles in cooperation with City subject matter experts, and then deploy the content on the website and through Constant Contact.
Print Newsletter:
Alternatively, Tripepi Smith can perform the same process as above, but lay out the newsletter in a PDF format that is also intended to be printed, and we can collaborate with a local print shop to have the newsletter delivered via mail. Our proposed pricing does not include pricing for the printing and postage fees. As a starting point for price consideration, Tripepi Smith has used our La Cañada Flintridge newsletter as the reference point for discussion. Tripepi Smith produces these quarterly tri-fold newsletters for clients like the City of La Cañada Flintridge, in which we develop up to seven articles highlighting key City events, accomplishments and features. These newsletters are carefully curated and designed with the support of our graphic design team.
Tripepi Smith can also provide in house Spanish translation and reformat the newsletter accordingly for a PDF format. For the digital format, we can write a native Spanish version, and then rely on the language translation on the City’s website to handle the Spanish version.
The layout in PDF format and handling with a printer is more involved, complicated and demands more graphic design time, so the price for a print edition is more expensive than the email delivery format. The exception to this is if you want us to deliver a PDF version, but then we use an email for distribution.
Ad Hoc Work (Time & Materials Basis)
Community Sentiment Analysis
To kick off community outreach efforts, Tripepi Smith recommends collecting community feedback using FlashVote, an automated scientific community survey technology that would provide actionable input on any pertinent community-oriented initiatives. FlashVote is inclusive for residents who want to participate, with communications by email, text and phone call, plus multiple language options. By collecting community feedback, Tripepi Smith can help the City engage with residents more effectively on future City projects, events, and more.
Here is an example response format that uses survey results for outreach on community branding:
https://www.flashvote.com/arlington-tx/surveys/city-branding-07-19?filter=local Fees for FlashVote are not included in our proposal. While Tripepi Smith has no financial interest in FlashVote, we do note that the co-founders of Tripepi Smith have personally invested in the platform.
Website Management
Tripepi Smith offers support options to make it easier for our clients to manage their websites. This can include items such as performing maintenance on the site, upgrading to the latest software for better security,
Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 730 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 21 adding content and much more. The City can elect a basic model of technical and maintenance website support or unlimited website content management support.
Community Event Support
Tripepi Smith can dispatch junior level, bilingual resources to staff community events in-person to support community outreach, community booths at events and other needs as requested in the RFP.
Event Planning
For City sponsored events such as town hall meetings and park dedications, Tripepi Smith will assist with logistical details and marketing each event to the appropriate audience. Tripepi Smith can use social media platforms, digital or printed flyers and custom graphics to advertise events based on the needs of the City.
Quarterly Photoshoot
Assumes an eight-hour day, with two-hour pre-planning, travel time, post-shoot photo editing, delivery to client photo portal. This includes all equipment fees – except drone work – and uses a Senior Graphic Artist / Photographer to complete the work.
Video Production
Assuming that Tripepi Smith handles all work, and the video involves scripting, use of teleprompter, full camera setup, a single day of production shooting, b-roll shooting on same day, pre-planning, postproduction video editing, music licensing, voice over, transcription and upload to appropriate channels.
Approve the three-year Professional Services Agreement with CV Strategie... Page 731 of 764 City of Indio / Communications and Marketing Services / Version 1.0 22 COST PROPOSAL
Tripepi Smith is proposing a potential scope of work based upon our reading of the RFP request. We remain open to discussing this scope and further refining the scope and related pricing in conversations with the City as these matters can be highly complex to merely convey in a written format.

Service Fees
Title Client Pays Directly Client Reimburses TS
Print costs, digital advertising, media

City Council
December 7, 2022
STAFF REPORT
To: City Council
From: Bryan H. Montgomery, City Manager
Prepared by: Steven Graham, City Attorney
Subject: Resolution No. 10337, appointing G. Ross Trindle III of Aleshire & Wynder LLP as Hearing Officer Pursuant to Chapter 123 (Cannabis Business Activities) of the Indio Municipal Code and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Aleshire & Wynder LLP for Hearing Officer Services RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No. 10337, appointing G. Ross Trindle III of Aleshire & Wynder LLP as Hearing Officer and Authorize the City Manager to Execute and Agreement with Aleshire & Wynder LLP for Hearing Officer Services
SUMMARY:
Chapter 123 of the Indio Municipal Code creates a cannabis business regulatory program that includes both an application process and enforcement actions that may result in administrative appeals. Section 123.24 authorizes the City Council to appoint a hearing officer to hold fair and impartial hearings on these appeals to ensure efficient resolution. City staff recommends that the City Council appoint G. Ross Trindle III as the City's hearing officer based on his extensive experience with local government regulation of cannabis businesses and administrative appeals.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
On June 1, 2022 the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1780 which authorized Cannabis Business Activities in the City of Indio subject to local regulations. Those regulations, found at Chapter 123 of the Indio Municipal Code, include a limitation on the number of available permits, an application process, operating regulations, and the ability to suspend or revoke permits of businesses that fail to operate consistent with state and local law.
The City has begun implementing the regulations, including the application process, and as of November 7, 2022, there were 13 applications that had been reviewed for completeness and eligible to advance into Phase II of the Application Evaluation and Review. Phase II consists of an objective scoring of the applications and only those applicants receiving a score of 90% or higher will be eligible to advance to the next phase of the application process. To ensure fairness in the application process, the Section 123.24 of the Indio Municipal Code allows appeals of adverse decisions that affect applicants, such as incorrect application of the application review criteria, and the City has scheduled an appeal period for Phase II from December 19th through January 20th.
Chapter 123 authorizes the City Council to appoint a hearing officer by resolution to hear and decide appeals related to the cannabis business. City staff recommends the City Council appoint G. Ross AGENDA ITEM #13.14
Resolution No. 10337 , appointing G. Ross Trindle III of Aleshire & Wynd... Page 748 of 764 Trindle,III of Aleshire & Wynder LLP to serve as the City's cannabis hearing officer. Mr. Trindle has extensive experience with cannabis regulatory matters, including administrative hearings, litigation, and appeals. He has personally handled approximately 50 cannabis administrative appeals and supervised approximately 30 more as well as litigated cannabis regulatory cases for numerous cities in San Bernardino and Riverside counties to resolution, including trial.
The resolution would appoint G. Ross Trindle III of Aleshire & Wynder LLP as the City's cannabis business ordinance hearing officer and authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Aleshire & Wynder for hearing officer services.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council could take no action to appoint a hearing officer. If a hearing officer is not appointed, then appeals of actions prior to issuance of permits would be heard by the City Manager and all other appeals, including suspension, revocation, or non-renewal of permits would be heard by the City Council.

STAFF REPORT
To: City Council
From: Bryan H. Montgomery, City Manager
Prepared by: Steven Graham, City Attorney
Subject: Reconsideration of the circumstances of the COVID-19 state of emergency and determine that the legislative bodies of the City of Indio will continue to hold meetings via teleconferencing pursuant to the findings set forth in Government Code Section 54953(e)(3).
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council has (i) reconsidered the circumstances of the COVID-19 state of emergency; and (2) finds that the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members of the City’s legislative bodies to meet safety in person and Cal OSHA continues to recommend measures to promote social distancing.
SUMMARY:
To continue to have the ability to meet remotely pursuant Government Code Section 54953(e) (AB 361), the City Council must make certain finings no later than 30 days after teleconferencing for the first time pursuant to AB 361, and every 30 days thereafter. The City Council reconsiders the findings it previously made and then makes a determination of whether the State’s COVID-19 declared state of emergency continues to impact the ability of all of the members of the City’s legislative bodies from meeting safely in person and as a result of the state of emergency, meeting in person presents imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees. Accordingly, the City Council has previously held that the City's legislative bodies may continue to use virtual teleconferenced meetings in compliance with Government Code Section 54953(e).
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The City Council and its legislative bodies have met remotely throughout the pandemic to protect the health and safety of the public and staff. The factual circumstances exist for the City’s legislative bodies to continue to hold meetings pursuant to AB 361. The state of emergency is still in effect and the City Council has previously reconsidered the findings and determined that the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of members of the City's legislative bodies to meet safely in person.
Since the beginning of the year, there have been several COVID-19 variants, including the Delta variant, the Omicron variant (which was prevalent in the beginning of the year), and the subvariant BA2, which is sometimes referred to as the "stealth omicron" and is a subvariant of Omicron. With the start of the summer, the number of coronavirus cases has significantly increased. In addition, there are two new Omicron strains (BA.4 and BA.5) that have become dominant.
AGENDA ITEM #13.15
Reconsideration of the circumstances of the COVID-19 state of emergency ... Page 752 of 764 During the month of July in Riverside County, COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations continued to increase along with many other counties in Southern California. For example, between July 8th and July 11th, Riverside County added 4,238 new cases. Between July 13 and July 20th, there were 814 cases reported. Towards the end of July, the case number decreased to 746 cases for the reporting period ending July 27th. While COVID-19 cases continue to remain high, the numbers are decreasing.
In the City of Indio, for the reporting period ending July 27th, Indio had an increase of 181 cases, 1 additional death and 320 recoveries.
Notwithstanding the lifting of the universal mask mandate, Cal OSHA Emergency Temporary Standards continue to recognize the importance of social distancing and states that the fact that particles containing the virus can travel more than six feet, especially indoors, training and instruction should be given to employees in that regard as well as inform that physical distancing, face coverings, increased ventilation indoors, and respiratory protection decrease the spread of COVID-19 and are most effective when used in combination.
Accordingly, it remains prudent that we monitor and continue the flexibility of a hybrid format will allow the continuation of the City’s business so that Council or Commission meetings would not have to be cancelled should members have health concerns or are sick and would provide the flexibility to each member of a legislative body to determine for themselves based on their own health matters whether attending a meeting will be risk to their health and safety or to those attending the meeting.
Even if the City Council continues to make the findings as required, the City Council and each of the City’s commissions can continue to meet in person and the chambers can continue to stay open. This determination does not require that meetings only be held remotely. This determination, however, would allow the City to make adjustments if needed (temporarily closing the chambers to the public) should COVID-19 continue to rapidly rise or the new variants threaten the health and safety of the public including staff and members of the City’s legislative bodies.
In conclusion, by reconsidering the circumstances of the state of emergency created by the COVID19 pandemic and finding that the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, the public meetings of the City of Indio can continue to be conducted by Zoom for the next 30 days.

STAFF REPORT
To: City Council
From: Rob Rockwell, Asst. City Manager & Dir. Of Finance Prepared by: Hector Orozco, Senior Accountant
Subject: Developer mitigation fee reporting requirements pursuant to government code section 66006.
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the AB1600 reports.
SUMMARY:
California Government Code Section 66006 requires that an accounting of mitigation fees paid by developers be made public and that project related expenditures be reviewed at a regularly scheduled public meeting. Additionally, the Building Industry Association (BIA) and the Desert Valley Builders Association (DVBA) have requested that the city provide a report identifying expenditures made from development mitigation fees to ensure the city is in compliance with AB1600. Accordingly, copies of the City’s AB1600 reports for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 were provided to both the BIA and the DVBA
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In 1989, AB1600 was codified as Section 66000 of the Government Code. AB1600 added a new chapter to the Government Code on fees collected for capital improvement projects. The chapter sets forth a number of requirements that local agencies must follow if they are to collect mitigation fees from developers.
Section 66006 mandates the fee reporting requirements that local agencies must adhere to each fiscal year. The BIA developed the reporting format (attached). Staff compiles the report of expenditures paid from the mitigation fees and interest accrued on those fees. The report covers the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. The city has complied with the following eight reporting requirements for mitigation fees:
1. Create separate capital improvement funds or accounts for each improvement funded with mitigation fees, Government Code Section 66006 a.
2. Remit all interest income earned by the fees to the same fund; interest income must be spent solely on the purpose for which the fee was originally collected, Section 66006 a.
3. Within 180 days after the close of each fiscal year, prepare a public report concerning each mitigation fee fund. The report must include the fund’s beginning and ending balance for the fiscal year, amount of fees and interest deposited into the fund for the fiscal year, and a AGENDA ITEM #14.1
Developer mitigation fee reporting requirements pursuant to government c... Page 754 of 764 description of each expenditure from the fund for that year, including identification of the improvement being funded with the fee, Section 66006 a.
4. Review these reports at public meetings not less than 15 days after the report‘s release to the public, Section 66006 (b) (2).
5. If mitigation fees remain unexpended or uncommitted for five years after being collected, the local agency is to make a finding that there remains a reasonable relationship between the current need for the fees and the purpose for which they were originally charged, Section 66001 (d).
6. Refund to current owners or developers fees collected with accrued interest, for which a continued need for the fees cannot be demonstrated (Section 66001 (f).
7. A local agency must not commingle mitigation fees with any other revenue, except for temporary investment purposes, Section 66006 (a).
8. Local agency may not spend mitigation fees for maintenance or operation of improvements funded with mitigation fees, Section 65913.8.

Fees are collected to fund construction of water facilities and water mains. Fees charged are based on meter size which determines capacity needs. Capacity is the amount available from the Indio Water Authority system when demanded by the user. Therefore the number of Equivalent Dwelling units (EDU) increases as the meter size (capacity) increases. The number of meters, and meter size, is estimated based on the type of development project. This fee structure Resolution 10242 was adopted on November 17, 2021 with an effective date of January 1, 2022.

As of March 1, 2013, a Supplemental Water Supply Fee is assessed on development projects in the City of Indio.
The fee provides a framework to alleviate the strain on IWA's groundwater supply and is based on future water demands for new developments. Funds will be used to pursue the development of recycled water for future growth through indirect potable reuse injection. The fee varies based upon the development type, based upon the annual consumption factor with return flows multiplied by $5,435, prorated by the size in acreage of the development type. This is defined in Section 33.066 of the Indio City Code.
