2. CONFERENCE WITH LEGAL COUNSEL - ANTICIPATED LITIGATION Initiation of litigation pursuant to Government Code 54956.9(d)(4) Public Comment:

Dave Johnson asked if the information that was leaked out of Closed Session regarding the offer made to Councilmember LaFayne of $10,000 and the possibility of payments by the City Council was ever reported to the Amador County Grand Jury.

E. REPORT OUT OF CLOSED SESSION:

1. CONFERENCE WITH LEGAL COUNSEL - EXISTING LITIGATION:

Government Code 54956.9(d)(1)
City of lone vs. Alison LaFayne, Individually and dba J. Bouldin West, LLO Amador County Superior Court: Case No. 25CV14742

2. CONFERENCE WITH LEGAL COUNSEL - ANTICIPATED LITIGATION Initiation of litigation pursuant to Government Code 54956.9(d)(4) Councilmember Atlan commented that he came out of Closed Session because the item was concerning him. It is one of the City's tricks where they itemize things on Closed Session and they don't really put down what it is so nobody can ask any questions. They itemized it as Potential Litigation, it is actually I am being accused of leaking from Closed Session. There are a lot of leaks come out of Closed Session as we know. I am not the person leaking but that is what it is about. So maybe next time they can actually put what we are talking about on the agenda instead of lying about it. That is why I recused myself because it concerned me.

F. APPROVAL OF AGENDA:

Motion: Moved by Vice Mayor Rhoades, seconded by Councilmember Mitchell and carried to approve the agenda with the amendment to Item #5 under Regular Agenda - Year to Date. Actuals Fiscal Year "2025-2026" and Budget Amendments AYES: Atlan, Rhoades, Atlan, LaFayne, Mitchell

G. PRESENTATIONS/ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Mayor Maita announced that Michael Politi has resigned from the Planning Commission due to personal reasons. Mayor Maita thanked Mr. Politi for the work and dedication he has done on the Commission. We will be replacing him soon.

H. PUBLIC COMMENT:

Dan Epperson, Amador County Supervisor:
• The final piece of the funding for the Valley View Commons, 44-unit complex across from the Transit Station was approved by the County, which will be completed in 2028.
• Pine Grove Fire Station will be done in 2027.

The County Jail is almost open and will be occupied soon. • The Air Board has a program that you can turn in your old lawn equipment and upgrade to electric or green power mowers. It is run through Guy's Saw Center.
• This year, the County will be paving 10 miles of roads. We bought some equipment through ACT so the County staff can do the paving.

Dave Johnson:
• Picnic Hill - looks like we are still owed $711,000 on that project. There should be a change order to JWG Concrete, three parking spaces were already approved and you paid them for six parking spaces. • Four of the Shade Sails have failed because of the zip ties. • The medal pipes are rusted and someone could cut themselves especially kids, which may require them to have a tetanus shot.

Larry Caputo:
• There are two current Councilmembers and two previous Councilmembers engaging in a deflection campaign against the current City Council. A deflection campaign is--if I can keep the focus on you, you can't look at what I did or didn't do. What they don't want you to do is ask, what did you do when you had the majority of the Council for eight years besides lose our major source of revenue, get rid of three City Managers, two City Planners and two City Attorneys. The poster board for the City Council was Michael Rock, who was removed from three previous cities for alleged financial crimes. There have been several events that are 10 years old and they finally got done.

CITY OF IONE
IONE, CA 95640
LIFORN
DATE: JUNE 2, 2026
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSH VARINSKY, CITY ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE TO INCREASE CITY MANAGER'S PURCHASING

AUTHORITY
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council waive second reading and adopt the attached Ordinance by title only, increasing the City Manager's purchasing authority from $15,000 to $50,000.

BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION:

The City's current purchasing and bidding ordinance is codified in Chapter 2.44 of the Municipal Code. The ordinance sets forth the purchasing limits of City departments and the City Manager and establishes bidding and solicitation procedures for goods, services, and public works projects.

The ordinance also provides criteria such as local preferences, small business preferences, and pre- qualification of bidders.

The intent of the attached ordinance is narrow, to increase the City Manager's purchasing limit above $15,000 and make corresponding consistency edits to the chapter.

To review the text amendments to the code chapter, a redline version is included as an exhibit to the attached ordinance.

The amendments to the chapter include the following:
• Increases the City Manager's purchasing limit to $50,000. (Section 2.44.140) • Specifies that any expenditure over $50 is authorized by the City Manager, consistent with the City's current administrative practices. (Section 2.44.140) • Other clarifications include specifying that the purchasing limit also applies to written contracts, so long as the maximum expenditure under those contracts are within the purchasing limit. (Section 2.44.020; Section 2.44.140)
• Other consistency edits and cleanup are included as well. (See Sections 2.44.140,

2.44.150(D).)
Included with this report is the ordinance to formally adopt the code amendments, which contains two exhibits: (1) a clean version of the code chapter if adopted, and (2) a redline version of the code chapter showing the text amendments.

In the future, it is also recommended that the City Council consider a more comprehensive review and update of this ordinance. One reason for this is to align the ordinance with the City's participation in the
partie in anthel. (SemisubhaptensionCe MAnicuat Coder" provided in the Califomic ATTACHMENTS:

The forms for the questionnaire, financial statement, and statement of experience will be provided as part of the prequalification bidding packet.

C. The questionnaires and financial statements submitted by prospective contractors are not public records and are not subject to public inspection. Records of the names of contractors applying for prequalification status are public records and subject to disclosure. Documents submitted by a prospective contractor will be submitted under penalty of perjury.

D. The city will rate prospective contractors in accordance with the rating system attached as Exhibit "A" ("rating system"). The city will devise the questions, process and scoring of the rating system, so as to best evaluate a contractor's ability to successfully complete a particular project. The city will complete the rating system prior to closing of the period for submission of pre-qualification packages for any given project or pre-qualification process. The rating system will be applied uniformly and objectively to all prospective contractors, which have submitted properly completed documents in accordance with this policy.

Editor's note(s) —Exhibit "A" was not included in the codification of this chapter.

The city may determine that only a certain number of the top scoring rated contractors shall be considered prequalified for a specific project. This determination shall be made prior to issuing the notice inviting pre- qualifications for the specific project.

E. When the city uses this pre-qualification process, the only contractors eligible to submit a bid are prequalified contractors. Further, such contractors shall submit bids only naming a prequalified subcontractor, if the city also pre-qualifies subcontractors in a similar manner as prime contractors. Any bid received listing an unqualified subcontractor will automatically be disqualified as nonresponsive. No bid shall be accepted for the project from unqualified contractors.

F.l A contractor's pre-qualification status will immediately terminate if: (1) the contractor fails to give the city written notice of changes in the information previously provided within ten days before a bid opening; (2) the contractor's license is suspended or terminated by the California State Licensing Board; (3) the contractor is convicted of any crime of moral turpitude; (4) the contractor's application contains materially false information; or (5) the contractor's control over a public works contract, whether within the city's jurisdiction or otherwise, is terminated for cause.

G. The city shall give written notice to each contractor of the pre-qualification determination for that contractor. A contractor may appeal a rating of "not qualified," including a decision to revoke a previous Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]

qualified rating. There is no appeal from a finding that a contractor is not pre-qualified because of a failure to submit required information, because of failure to submit required information in a timely manner, because of the omission of requested information or because of the falsification of information. Without a timely appeal, the contractor waives any and all rights to challenge the decision of the City of lone, whether by administrative process, judicial process, or any other legal process or proceeding.

H. A contractor may appeal the decision as follows:

1. By giving written notice of appeal to the city manager no later than ten days after receipt of the not qualified rating.

2. The notice of appeal shall contain at least the following:
a. The name, address and telephone number of the person making the appeal; b. A description of the determination which is the subject of the appeal, and the date of the notice of determination; and
A brief description of the grounds for the appeal.
l. The city will provide the contractor with a written statement of the basis for the not qualified determination and supporting evidence received from others or adduced as a result of investigation.

J. The informal hearing is to be concluded no later than five business days after the City of lone's receipt of the notice of appeal, and no later than five business days prior to the last date for the receipt of bids on the project. It is the intention of the City of lone that the date for the submission and opening of bids will not be delayed or postponed to allow for completion of an appeal process.

K. The city manager or designee shall hear the appeal. The hearing shall be an informal one. The contractor may rebut evidence which is the basis for the determination and present evidence why the contractor is qualified.

L. The city manager or designee may affirm the earlier determination or reverse the determination and assign a different rating. This decision will be in writing containing a summary of the facts that led to the decision.

The decision of the city manager is final. A contractor shall have no right to appeal that decision to the council.

M. The city manager may cancel the pre-qualification process at any time during the prequalification process, even after receiving and scoring applications. If the pre-qualification process is cancelled, the normal competitive bidding rules will apply. The city assumes no liability for the cost a prospective contractor may have incurred by submitting an application for pre-qualification, and the submittal of a pre-qualification application is a waiver to claim any such cost or losses due to cancellation of the process.

6. The city council may authorize the award and execution of contracts without competitive bidding provided that such award is in the best interest of the city, or of the public health, safety and welfare. (Ord. No. 505, 11-16-2019)

B. General Procurement Standards.

1. Code of Conduct. As representatives of the City of lone, all employees are expected to conduct themselves in a professional and ethical manner, maintaining high standards of integrity and the use of good judgement. Employees are expected to be principled in their business interactions and act in good faith with individuals both inside and outside the city. The following code of conduct shall govern the performance, behavior and actions of the city, including employees, directors, appointed or elected officials, volunteers, or agents who are engaged in any aspect of procurement, including, but not limited to, purchasing goods and services, awarding contracts and grants, and the administration and supervision of contracts:
a. No employee, director, appointed or elected official, volunteer, or agent of the city shall participate in the selection, award, or administration of contracts supported by a federal award if a conflict of interest is real or apparent to a reasonable person. b. Conflicts of interest may arise when any employee, officer, or agent of the city, any member of his or her immediate family, his or her partner, or an organization which employs or is about to employ any of the parties indicated herein, has a real or apparent financial or other interest in or a tangible personal benefit form a firm considered for the contract.
c. No employee, director, appointed or elected official, volunteer, or agent of the city shall do usiness with, award contracts to, or show favoritism toward a member of his or hi mediate family, spouse's family, or to any company, vendor, contractor, or parties Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 13 of 20 ends

subcontractors who either employ or has any relationship to a family member; or award a contract or bid which violates the spirit or intent of federal, state and local procurement laws and policies established to maximize free and open competition among qualified vendors.
d. The city's employees, directors, appointed or elected officials, volunteers, or agents shall neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, gifts, consulting fees, trips, or anything having a monetary value in excess of $25.00 from a vendor, potential vendor, family or employees of a vendor, contractor or parties to subcontractors.
e. Disciplinary measures for violations of the code of conduct by employees, directors, appointed or elected officials, volunteers, or agents who are engaged in any aspect of procurement, including, but not limited to, purchasing goods and services, awarding contracts and grants, and the administration and supervision of contracts could lead to disciplinary measures, up to and including possible termination of employment.

2. Solicitation Procedures.
a. Acquisition of unnecessary or duplicative items must be avoided. Consideration should be given to consolidating or dividing procurements to obtain a more economical purchase.

When appropriate, an analysis will be made of lease versus purchase alternatives, and any other appropriate analysis to determine the most economical approach. b. To foster greater economy and efficiency, and in accordance with efforts to promote cost- effective use of shared services, the city shall enter into state and local intergovernmental agreements or inter-entity agreements where appropriate for procurement or use of common or shared goods and services.

Procuring federal excess and surplus property in lieu of purchasing new equipment and property whenever such use is feasible and reduces project costs shall be utilized. d. Value engineering clauses may be used in contracts for construction projects of sufficient size to offer reasonable opportunities for cost reductions. Value engineering is a systematic and creative analysis of each contract item or task to ensure that its essential function is provided at the overall lower cost.
e. Contracts shall only be awarded to responsible contractors possessing the ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of a proposed procurement.

Consideration will be given to such matters as contractor integrity, compliance with public policy, record of past performance, and financial and technical resources. f. Records will be maintained sufficient to detail the history of procurement. These records will include, but are not necessarily limited to the following: Rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. The city clerk will be the repository for said records and shall be maintained for period of no less than seven years.
g. Time and material type contracts (open-ended) may be used only after a determination that no other contract is suitable. Time and material type contract means a contract where the cost to the city is the sum of the actual cost of materials and direct labor hours charged at fixed hourly rates that reflect wages, general and administrative expense, and profit.

Each time and material contract will set a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk. A higher degree of oversight is required in order to obtain reasonable assurance that the contractor is using efficient methods and effective cost controls.

Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 14 of 20 ends

h. The city alone will be responsible, in accordance with good administrative practice and sound business judgment, for the settlement of all contractual and administrative issues arising out of procurements. These issues include, but are not limited to, source evaluation, protests, disputes, and claims. These standards do not relieve the city of any contractual responsibilities under its contracts. The federal awarding agency will not substitute its judgment for that of the city unless the matter is primarily a federal concern. Violations of law will be referred to the local, state, or federal authority having proper jurisdiction.

3. Competition.
a. All procurement transactions must be conducted in a manner providing full and open competition. In order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage, contractors that develop or draft specifications, requirements, statements of work, and invitations for bids or requests for proposals will be excluded from competing for such procurements. Some of the situations considered to be restrictive of competition include, but are not limited to:

Placing unreasonable requirements on firms in order for them to qualify to do business;
ii. Requiring unnecessary experience and excessive bonding; iii. Noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated companies;
iv. Noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer contracts; V. Organizational conflicts of interest;
vi. Specifying only a brand name product instead of allowing an equal product to be offered and describing the performance or other relevant requirements of the procurement; and
vii. Any arbitrary action in the procurement process.
b. Procurements shall be conducted in a manner that prohibits the use of statutorily or administratively imposed state or local geographical preferences in the evaluation of bids or proposals, except in those cases where applicable federal statutes expressly mandate or encourage geographic preference. Nothing in this section preempts state licensing laws.

When contracting for architectural and engineering (A/E) services, geographic location may be a selection criterion provided its application leaves an appropriate number of qualified firms, given the nature and size of the project, to compete for the contract. c. All solicitations will incorporate a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements for the material, product, or service to be procured. Such description must not, in competitive procurements, contain features which unduly restrict competition. The description may include a statement of the qualitative nature of the material, product or service to be procured and, when necessary, must set forth those minimum essential characteristics and standard to which it must conform if it is to satisfy its intended use.

Detailed product specifications should be avoided if at all possible. When it is impractical or uneconomical to make a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements, a brand name or equivalent description may be used as a means to define the performance or other relevant requirements of procurement. The specific features of the named brand which must be met by offers must be clearly stated.
d. Bids and proposals shall identify all the requirements which the offerors must fulfill and all other factors to be used in evaluation bids or proposals.

4. Methods of Procurement. In addition to the city's purchasing policy approval limits, one of the following methods should be used:
a. Micro-purchase: Purchases where the aggregate dollar amount does not exceed $3,000.00, or the current limitation set by the Federal Acquisition Regulation at 48 CFR Subpart 2.1, where this threshold is periodically adjusted for inflation. b. Small purchase: Purchases up to the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. Informal purchasing procedures are acceptable, but price or rate quotes must be obtained from an adequate number of sources.

Sealed bid: Purchases over the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. Under this purchase method, formal solicitation is required, and the fixed price (lump sum or unit price) is awarded to the responsible bidder who conformed to all material terms and is the lowest in price. This method is the preferred procurement method for construction contracts, if the following conditions apply:
i. A complete, adequate, and realistic specification or purchase description is available;
il. Two or more responsible bidders are willing and able to compete effectively for the business, and,
The procurement lends itself to a firm fixed price contract and the selection of the successful bidder can be made principally based on price.

If this method is used, the following requirements shall apply:

The invitation for bids will be publicly advertised and bids must be solicited from an adequate number of known suppliers, providing them sufficient response time prior to the date for opening the bids;
il. The invitation for bids, which will include any specifications and pertinent attachments, must define the terms or services in order for the bidder to properly respond;
ili. All bids will be publicly opened at the time and place prescribed in the invitation for bids;
iv. A firm fixed price contract award will be made in writing to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Where specified in bidding documents, factors such as discounts will only be used in determining which bid is lowest.

Payment discounts will only be used to determine the low bid when prior experience indicates that such discounts are usually taken advantage of; and V. Any or all bids may be rejected if there is a sound documented reason.

Competitive proposals: Purchases over the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. This procurement method requires formal solicitation, fixed-price or cost-reimbursement contracts, and is used when sealed bids are not appropriate. The contract should be awarded to the responsible firm whose proposal is most advantageous to the program, with price being one of the various factors. If this method is used, the following requirements apply:
i. Requests for proposals must be publicized and identify all evaluation factors and their relative importance. Any response to publicized requests for proposals must be considered to the maximum extent practical; Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 16 of 20 ends

il. Proposals must be solicited from an adequate number of qualified sources; ili. The methods for conducting technical evaluations of the proposals received and for selecting recipients may include, but not limited to: Oral interviews, references, past performance, availability to perform work, and certifications as determined by project scope.
iv. Any response that takes exception to any mandatory items in this proposal process may be rejected and not considered;
V. Contracts must be awarded to the responsible firm whose proposal is most advantageous to the program, with price and other factors considered; and, vi. Competitive proposal procedures may be used for qualifications-based procurement of architectural/engineering (A/E) professional services whereby competitors' qualifications are evaluated and the most qualified competitor is selected, subject to negotiation of fair and reasonable compensation. The method, where price is not used as a selection factor, can only be used in procurement of A/E professional services. It cannot be used to purchase other types of services, though A/E firms are a potential source to perform the proposed effort.

Noncompetitive proposals: Also known as sole-source procurement, this may be appropriate only when one or more of the following criteria are met:
i. The item is available only from a single source;
ii. The public emergency for the requirement will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation;
ili. The federal awarding agency or pass-through entity expressly authorizes noncompetitive proposals in response to a written request from the non- federal entity; or
iv. After solicitation of a number of sources, competition is determined inadequate.

Contract Cost and Price. A cost or price analysis shall be performed in connection with every procurement action in excess of the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00) including contract modifications. The method and degree of analysis is dependent on the facts surrounding the particular procurement situation, but as a starting point, independent estimates shall be made prior to receiving bids and proposals.

Profit shall be negotiated as a separate element of the price for each contract in which there is a no price competition and in all cases where cost analysis is performed. To establish a fair and reasonable profit, consideration must be given to the complexity of the work to be performed, the risk borne by the contractor, the contractor's investment, the amount of subcontracting, the quality of its record of past performance, and industry profit rates in the surrounding geographical area for similar work. b. Costs or prices based on estimated costs for contracts under the federal award are allowable only to the extent that costs incurred or cost estimates included in negotiated prices would be allowable for the city under Subpart E — Cost Principles of Part 200 - Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.

Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 17 of 20 ends

C. The cost plus a percentage of cost and percentage of construction cost methods of contracting shall be used.

6. Federal Awarding Agency or Pass-Through Entity Review. a. The city shall make available, upon request of the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity, technical specifications on proposed procurements where the federal awarding • agency or pass-through entity believes such review is needed to ensure that the item or service specified is the one being proposed for acquisition. This review generally will take place prior to the time the specification is incorporated into a solicitation document.

However, if the city desires to have the review accomplished after a solicitation has been developed, the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity may still review the specifications, with such review usually limited to the technical aspects of the proposed purchase.
b. The city will make available upon request, for the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity pre-procurement review, procurement documents, such as requests for proposals or invitations for bids, or independent cost estimates, when:

Procurement procedures or operations fails to comply with the procurement standards in this part;
The procurement is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00) and is to be awarded without competition or only one bid or offer is received in response to a solicitation;
ili. The procurement, which is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold, specifies a "brand name" product;
iv. The proposed contract is more than the simplified acquisition threshold and is to be awarded to other than the apparent low bidder under a sealed bid procurement; or
V. A proposed contract modification changes the scope of a contract or increases the contract amount by more than the simplified acquisition threshold. c. The city is exempt from the pre-procurement review in paragraph b. of this section if the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity determines that its procurement systems comply with the standards of this part.

The city may request that its procurement system be reviewed by the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity to determine whether its system meets these standards in order for its system to be certified. Generally, these reviews must occur where there is continuous high-dollar funding, and third-party contracts are awarded on a regular basis; e. The city may self-certify its procurement system. Such self-certification must not limit the federal awarding agency's right to survey the system. Under a self-certification procedure, the federal awarding agency may rely on written assurances from the city that it is complying with these standards. The city must cite specific policies, procedures, regulations, or standards as being in compliance with these requirements and have its system available for review.

Bonding Requirements. For construction or facility improvement contracts or subcontracts exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00), the federal awarding or pass- through entity may accept the bonding policy and requirements of the city provided that the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity has made a determination that the federal Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 18 of 20 ends

interest is adequately protected. If such a determination has not been made, the minimum requirements must be as follows:
a. A bid guarantee from each bidder equivalent to five percent of the bid price. The bid guarantee must consist of a firm commitment such as a bid bond, certified check, or other negotiable instrument accompanying a bid as assurance that the bidder will, upon acceptance of the bid, execute such contractual documents as may be required within the time specified;
b. A performance bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. A performance bond is one executed in connection with a contract to secure fulfillment of all the contractor's obligations under such contract; and,
C. A payment bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. A payment bond is one executed in connection with a contract to assure payment as required by law of all persons supplying labor and material in the execution of the work provided for in the contract.

8. Contract Provisions. All federal funding source compliance provisions shall include the following:
a. Equal Employment Opportunity. All contracts, when funded in whole or partly by monies derived from the federal government (either directly or indirectly), shall contain a provision requiring compliance with Equal Employment Opportunity. b. Davis-Bacon Act. Applies to construction contracts in excess of $2,000.00. It requires contracts to pay laborers and mechanics wages not less than the prevailing wage as determined by the Secretary of Labor and must be required to pay wages not less than once a week. Each bid solicitation published by the city must contain the current prevailing wage determination. Any award of the contract must be conditioned on contractor's acceptance of that wage determination and suspected or reported violations of this act shall be immediately reported to the federal awarding agency.

C. Copeland "Anti-Kickback" Act. Applies to construction contracts in excess of $2,000.00. It prohibits kickbacks in construction contracts funded with federal monies. Contractors and subcontractors or subrecipients shall be prohibited from inducing any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled and suspected or reported violations shall be immediately reported to the federal awarding agency. d. Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Applies to contracts and sub grants in excess of $150,000.00. Contractor shall be required to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Suspected or reported violations must be reported to the Federal awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). e. Debarment and Suspension. Contracts funded with federal grant monies may not be awarded to contractors that have been debarred or suspended from receiving federal monies pursuant to the System for Award Management (SAM).

Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment. Contractors that apply or bid for an award of $100,000.00 must certify that they will not and have not used federal funds to pay any person or organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with obtaining any federal contract, grant or any other Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 (EST]

Contracting with Small and Minority Business, Women's Business Enterprises, and Labor Surplus Area Firms. All necessary affirmative steps will be taken to assure that minority business, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms are used when possible. Affirmative steps include:
a. Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists;
b. Assuring that small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources;
C. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises;
Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which encourage participation by small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises; e. Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce; and

The city clerk shall keep a current list of all disqualified contractors and subcontractors on file.

E. Exceptions to Local Business Preference Policy. The preference set forth in this section shall not apply to the following purchases or contracts:

1. Goods or services provided under a cooperative purchasing agreement.

2.44.090 Small business preference.

A.

4. A business which has obtained city certification as a local business or a small business by reason of having furnished incorrect supporting information or by reason of having withheld information, and which knew or should have known the information furnished was incorrect or the information withheld was relevant to its request for certification, and which by reason of such certification has been awarded a contract to which it would not otherwise have been entitled, shall:

(Ord. No. 505, 11-16-2019)

2.44.120 Pre-qualification of bidders for public works projects.

A. The city manager may designate public works projects or parts thereof that require specialized skills or cost in excess of $2,000,000.00 to be subject to prequalification of bidders.

B. To become a prequalified bidder, a contractor must submit to the city a prequalification application consisting of a standardized questionnaire, financial statement, and statement of experience. The forms for the questionnaire, financial statement, and statement of experience will be provided as part of the prequalification bidding packet.

The questionnaires and financial statements submitted by prospective contractors are not public records and are not subject to public inspection. Records of the names of contractors applying for prequalification status are public records and subject to disclosure. Documents submitted by a prospective contractor will be submitted under penalty of perjury.

D. The city will rate prospective contractors in accordance with the rating system attached as Exhibit "A" ("rating system"). The city will devise the questions, process and scoring of the rating system, so as to best evaluate a contractor's ability to successfully complete a particular project. The city will complete the rating system prior to closing of the period for submission of pre-qualification packages for any given project or pre-qualification process. The rating system will be applied uniformly and objectively to all prospective contractors, which have submitted properly completed documents in accordance with this policy.

Editor's note(s) -Exhibit "A" was not included in the codification of this chapter.

The city may determine that only a certain number of the top scoring rated contractors shall be considered prequalified for a specific project. This determination shall be made prior to issuing the notice inviting pre- qualifications for the specific project.

E. When the city uses this pre-qualification process, the only contractors eligible to submit a bid are prequalified contractors. Further, such contractors shall submit bids only naming a prequalified subcontractor, if the city also pre-qualifies subcontractors in a similar manner as prime contractors. Any bid received listing an unqualified subcontractor will automatically be disqualified as nonresponsive. No bid shall be accepted for the project from unqualified contractors.

F. A contractor's pre-qualification status will immediately terminate if: (1) the contractor fails to give the city written notice of changes in the information previously provided within ten days before a bid opening; (2) the contractor's license is suspended or terminated by the California State Licensing Board; (3) the contractor is convicted of any crime of moral turpitude; (4) the contractor's application contains materially false information; or (5) the contractor's control over a public works contract, whether within the city's jurisdiction or otherwise, is terminated for cause.

G. The city shall give written notice to each contractor of the pre-qualification determination for that contractor. A contractor may appeal a rating of "not qualified," including a decision to revoke a previous qualified rating. There is no appeal from a finding that a contractor is not pre-qualified because of a failure to submit required information, because of failure to submit required information in a timely manner, because of the omission of requested information or because of the falsification of information. Without a timely appeal, the contractor waives any and all rights to challenge the decision of the City of lone, whether by administrative process, judicial process, or any other legal process or proceeding.

A contractor may appeal the decision as follows:

1. By giving written notice of appeal to the city manager no later than ten days after receipt of the not qualified rating.

The notice of appeal shall contain at least the following:

The name, address and telephone number of the person making the appeal; b. A description of the determination which is the subject of the appeal, and the date of the notice of determination; and
c. A brief description of the grounds for the appeal.

I. The city will provide the contractor with a written statement of the basis for the not qualified determination and supporting evidence received from others or adduced as a result of investigation.

J. The informal hearing is to be concluded no later than five business days after the City of lone's receipt of the notice of appeal, and no later than five business days prior to the last date for the receipt of bids on the project. It is the intention of the City of lone that the date for the submission and opening of bids will not be delayed or postponed to allow for completion of an appeal process.

The city manager or designee shall hear the appeal. The hearing shall be an informal one. The contractor may rebut evidence which is the basis for the determination and present evidence why the contractor is qualified.

L. The city manager or designee may affirm the earlier determination or reverse the determination and assign a different rating. This decision will be in writing containing a summary of the facts that led to the decision.

The decision of the city manager is final. A contractor shall have no right to appeal that decision to the M. The city manager may cancel the pre-qualification process at any time during the prequalification process, even after receiving and scoring applications. If the pre-qualification process is cancelled, the normal competitive bidding rules will apply. The city assumes no liability for the cost a prospective contractor may have incurred by submitting an application for pre-qualification, and the submittal of a pre-qualification application is a waiver to claim any such cost or losses due to cancellation of the process.

When appropriate, an analysis will be made of lease versus purchase alternatives, and any other appropriate analysis to determine the most economical approach.

To foster greater economy and efficiency, and in accordance with efforts to promote cost- effective use of shared services, the city shall enter into state and local intergovernmental agreements or inter-entity agreements where appropriate for procurement or use of common or shared goods and services.

Procuring federal excess and surplus property in lieu of purchasing new equipment an roperty whenever such use is feasible and reduces project costs shall be utilize d. Value engineering clauses may be used in contracts for construction projects of sufficient size to offer reasonable opportunities for cost reductions. Value engineering is a systematic and creative analysis of each contract item or task to ensure that its essential function is provided at the overall lower cost

(Supp. No. 13)

Page 14 of 21 ends

e. Contracts shall only be awarded to responsible contractors possessing the ability to perform successfully under the terms and conditions of a proposed procurement.

Consideration will be given to such matters as contractor integrity, compliance with public policy, record of past performance, and financial and technical resources. f. Records will be maintained sufficient to detail the history of procurement. These records will include, but are not necessarily limited to the following: Rationale for the method of procurement, selection of contract type, contractor selection or rejection, and the basis for the contract price. The city clerk will be the repository for said records and shall be maintained for period of no less than seven years.
g. Time and material type contracts (open-ended) may be used only after a determination that no other contract is suitable. Time and material type contract means a contract where the cost to the city is the sum of the actual cost of materials and direct labor hours charged at fixed hourly rates that reflect wages, general and administrative expense, and profit.

Each time and material contract will set a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk. A higher degree of oversight is required in order to obtain reasonable assurance that the contractor is using efficient methods and effective cost controls.

The city alone will be responsible, in accordance with good administrative practice and sound business judgment, for the settlement of all contractual and administrative issues arising out of procurements. These issues include, but are not limited to, source evaluation, protests, disputes, and claims. These standards do not relieve the city of any contractual responsibilities under its contracts. The federal awarding agency will not substitute its judgment for that of the city unless the matter is primarily a federal concern. Violations of law will be referred to the local, state, or federal authority having proper jurisdiction.

3. Competition.
a. All procurement transactions must be conducted in a manner providing full and open competition. In order to ensure objective contractor performance and eliminate unfair competitive advantage, contractors that develop or draft specifications, requirements, statements of work, and invitations for bids or requests for proposals will be excluded from competing for such procurements. Some of the situations considered to be restrictive of competition include, but are not limited to:

Placing unreasonable requirements on firms in order for them to qualify to do business;
ii. Requiring unnecessary experience and excessive bonding; ili. Noncompetitive pricing practices between firms or between affiliated companies;
iv. Noncompetitive contracts to consultants that are on retainer contracts; Organizational conflicts of interest;
vi. Specifying only a brand name product instead of allowing an equal product to be offered and describing the performance or other relevant requirements of the procurement; and
vii. Any arbitrary action in the procurement process.
b. Procurements shall be conducted in a manner that prohibits the use of statutorily or administratively imposed state or local geographical preferences in the evaluation of bids Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 15 of 21 ends

or proposals, except in those cases where applicable federal statutes expressly mandate or encourage geographic preference. Nothing in this section preempts state licensing laws.

When contracting for architectural and engineering (A/E) services, geographic location may be a selection criterion provided its application leaves an appropriate number of qualified firms, given the nature and size of the project, to compete for the contract.

C. All solicitations will incorporate a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements for the material, product, or service to be procured. Such description must not, in competitive procurements, contain features which unduly restrict competition. The description may include a statement of the qualitative nature of the material, product or service to be procured and, when necessary, must set forth those minimum essential characteristics and standard to which it must conform if it is to satisfy its intended use.

Detailed product specifications should be avoided if at all possible. When it is impractical or uneconomical to make a clear and accurate description of the technical requirements, a brand name or equivalent description may be used as a means to define the performance or other relevant requirements of procurement. The specific features of the named brand which must be met by offers must be clearly stated.
d. Bids and proposals shall identify all the requirements which the offerors must fulfill and all other factors to be used in evaluation bids or proposals.

4. Methods of Procurement. In addition to the city's purchasing policy approval limits, one of the following methods should be used:
a. Micro-purchase: Purchases where the aggregate dollar amount does not exceed $3,000.00, or the current limitation set by the Federal Acquisition Regulation at 48 CFR Subpart 2.1, where this threshold is periodically adjusted for inflation.

Small purchase: Purchases up to the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. Informal purchasing procedures are acceptable, but price or rate quotes must be obtained from an adequate number of sources.

Sealed bid: Purchases over the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. Under this purchase method, formal solicitation is required, and the fixed price (lump sum or unit price) is awarded to the responsible bidder who conformed to all material terms and is the lowest in price. This method is the preferred procurement method for construction contracts, if the following conditions apply:

A complete, adequate, and realistic specification or purchase description is available;
ii. Two or more responsible bidders are willing and able to compete effectively for the business, and
ili. The procurement lends itself to a firm fixed price contract and the selection of the successful bidder can be made principally based on price.

If this method is used, the following requirements shall apply:
i. The invitation for bids will be publicly advertised and bids must be solicited from an adequate number of known suppliers, providing them sufficient response time prior to the date for opening the bids;
ii. The invitation for bids, which will include any specifications and pertinent attachments, must define the terms or services in order for the bidder to properly respond;
Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 16 of 21 ends

ili. All bids will be publicly opened at the time and place prescribed in the invitation for bids;
A firm fixed price contract award will be made in writing to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Where specified in bidding documents, factors such as discounts will only be used in determining which bid is lowest.

Payment discounts will only be used to determine the low bid when prior experience indicates that such discounts are usually taken advantage of; and v. Any or all bids may be rejected if there is a sound documented reason. d. Competitive proposals: Purchases over the simplified acquisition threshold, which is currently $150,000.00. This procurement method requires formal solicitation, fixed-price or cost-reimbursement contracts, and is used when sealed bids are not appropriate. The contract should be awarded to the responsible firm whose proposal is most advantageous to the program, with price being one of the various factors. If this method is used, the following requirements apply:

Requests for proposals must be publicized and identify all evaluation factors and their relative importance. Any response to publicized requests for proposals must be considered to the maximum extent practical; ii. Proposals must be solicited from an adequate number of qualified sources; ili. The methods for conducting technical evaluations of the proposals received and for selecting recipients may include, but not limited to: Oral interviews, references, past performance, availability to perform work, and certifications as determined by project scope.
iv. Any response that takes exception to any mandatory items in this proposal process may be rejected and not considered;
V. Contracts must be awarded to the responsible firm whose proposal is most advantageous to the program, with price and other factors considered; and, vi. Competitive proposal procedures may be used for qualifications-based procurement of architectural/engineering (A/E) professional services whereby competitors' qualifications are evaluated and the most qualified competitor is selected, subject to negotiation of fair and reasonable compensation. The method, where price is not used as a selection factor, can only be used in procurement of A/E professional services. It cannot be used to purchase other types of services, though A/E firms are a potential source to perform the proposed effort.
e. Noncompetitive proposals: Also known as sole-source procurement, this may be appropriate only when one or more of the following criteria are met:
i. The item is available only from a single source;
ii. The public emergency for the requirement will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation;
ili. The federal awarding agency or pass-through entity expressly authorizes noncompetitive proposals in response to a written request from the non- federal entity; or
Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 17 of 21 ends

iv. After solicitation of a number of sources, competition is determined inadequate.

5. Contract Cost and Price. A cost or price analysis shall be performed in connection with every procurement action in excess of the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00) including contract modifications. The method and degree of analysis is dependent on the facts surrounding the particular procurement situation, but as a starting point, independent estimates shall be made prior to receiving bids and proposals.
a. Profit shall be negotiated as a separate element of the price for each contract in which there is a no price competition and in all cases where cost analysis is performed. To establish a fair and reasonable profit, consideration must be given to the complexity of the work to be performed, the risk borne by the contractor, the contractor's investment, the amount of subcontracting, the quality of its record of past performance, and industry profit rates in the surrounding geographical area for similar work. b. Costs or prices based on estimated costs for contracts under the federal award are allowable only to the extent that costs incurred or cost estimates included in negotiated prices would be allowable for the city under Subpart E — Cost Principles of Part 200 - Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.
c. The cost plus a percentage of cost and percentage of construction cost methods of contracting shall be used.

6. Federal Awarding Agency or Pass-Through Entity Review. a. The city shall make available, upon request of the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity, technical specifications on proposed procurements where the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity believes such review is needed to ensure that the item or service specified is the one being proposed for acquisition. This review generally will take place prior to the time the specification is incorporated into a solicitation document.

However, if the city desires to have the review accomplished after a solicitation has been developed, the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity may still review the specifications, with such review usually limited to the technical aspects of the proposed purchase.
b. The city will make available upon request, for the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity pre-procurement review, procurement documents, such as requests for proposals or invitations for bids, or independent cost estimates, when:
i. Procurement procedures or operations fails to comply with the procurement standards in this part;
The procurement is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00) and is to be awarded without competition or only one bid or offer is received in response to a solicitation;
ili. The procurement, which is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold, specifies a "brand name" product;
iv. The proposed contract is more than the simplified acquisition threshold and is to be awarded to other than the apparent low bidder under a sealed bid procurement; or
Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 18 of 21 ends

v. A proposed contract modification changes the scope of a contract or increases the contract amount by more than the simplified acquisition threshold.

C. The city is exempt from the pre-procurement review in paragraph b. of this section if the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity determines that its procurement systems comply with the standards of this part.
d. The city may request that its procurement system be reviewed by the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity to determine whether its system meets these standards in order for its system to be certified. Generally, these reviews must occur where there is continuous high-dollar funding, and third-party contracts are awarded on a regular basis; The city may self-certify its procurement system. Such self-certification must not limit the federal awarding agency's right to survey the system. Under a self-certification procedure, the federal awarding agency may rely on written assurances from the city that it is complying with these standards. The city must cite specific policies, procedures, regulations, or standards as being in compliance with these requirements and have its system available for review.

7. Bonding Requirements. For construction or facility improvement contracts or subcontracts exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold ($150,000.00), the federal awarding or pass- through entity may accept the bonding policy and requirements of the city provided that the federal awarding agency or pass-through entity has made a determination that the federal interest is adequately protected. If such a determination has not been made, the minimum requirements must be as follows:
a. A bid guarantee from each bidder equivalent to five percent of the bid price. The bid guarantee must consist of a firm commitment such as a bid bond, certified check, or other negotiable instrument accompanying a bid as assurance that the bidder will, upon acceptance of the bid, execute such contractual documents as may be required within the time specified;
b. A performance bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. A performance bond is one executed in connection with a contract to secure fulfillment of all the contractor's obligations under such contract; and,
c. A payment bond on the part of the contractor for 100 percent of the contract price. A payment bond is one executed in connection with a contract to assure payment as required by law of all persons supplying labor and material in the execution of the work provided for in the contract.

8. Contract Provisions. All federal funding source compliance provisions shall include the following:

Equal Employment Opportunity. All contracts, when funded in whole or partly by monies derived from the federal government (either directly or indirectly), shall contain a provision requiring compliance with Equal Employment Opportunity. b. Davis-Bacon Act. Applies to construction contracts in excess of $2,000.00. It requires contracts to pay laborers and mechanics wages not less than the prevailing wage as determined by the Secretary of Labor and must be required to pay wages not less than once a week. Each bid solicitation published by the city must contain the current prevailing wage determination. Any award of the contract must be conditioned on contractor's acceptance of that wage determination and suspected or reported violations of this act shall be immediately reported to the federal awarding agency.

Created: 2025-03-10 16:43:56 [EST]
(Supp. No. 13)

Page 19 of 21 ends

c. Copeland "Anti-Kickback" Act. Applies to construction contracts in excess of $2,000.00. It prohibits kickbacks in construction contracts funded with federal monies. Contractors and subcontractors or subrecipients shall be prohibited from inducing any person employed in the construction, completion, or repair of public work, to give up any part of the compensation to which he or she is otherwise entitled and suspected or reported violations shall be immediately reported to the federal awarding agency.

Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Applies to contracts and sub grants in excess of $150,000.00. Contractor shall be required to comply with all applicable standards, orders or regulations issued pursuant to the Clean Air Act and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act. Suspected or reported violations must be reported to the Federal awarding agency and the Regional Office of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Debarment and Suspension. Contracts funded with federal grant monies may not be awarded to contractors that have been debarred or suspended from receiving federal monies pursuant to the System for Award Management (SAM).

Byrd Anti-Lobbying Amendment. Contractors that apply or bid for an award of $100,000.00 must certify that they will not and have not used federal funds to pay any person or organization for influencing or attempting to influence an officer or employee of any agency, a member of Congress, officer or employee of Congress, or an employee of a member of Congress in connection with obtaining any federal contract, grant or any other Contracting with Small and Minority Business, Women's Business Enterprises, and Labor Surplus Area Firms. All necessary affirmative steps will be taken to assure that minority business, women's business enterprises, and labor surplus area firms are used when possible. Affirmative steps include:
a. Placing qualified small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises on solicitation lists;
b. Assuring that small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises are solicited whenever they are potential sources;
C. Dividing total requirements, when economically feasible, into smaller tasks or quantities to permit maximum participation by small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises;
d. Establishing delivery schedules, where the requirement permits, which encourage participation by small and minority businesses and women's business enterprises; Using the services and assistance, as appropriate, of such organizations as the Small Business Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency of the Department of Commerce; and
f. Requiring the prime contractor, if subcontracts are to be let, to take the affirmative steps listed in paragraphs a. through e. of this section.

TO: THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: GEORGE LEE, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: TEMPORARY EXTENSION OF INTERIM PLANNER AGREEMENT RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve extension of Raney Planning & Management, Inc.

Interim Planner Agreement until a full-time planner is hired.

BACKGROUND: In March, 2026, staff hired an Interim Planner with a billing limit of $15,000 until a permanent planner was hired. Unfortunately, we did not receive any responses to the Request for Proposal for City Planner. Staff will be re-advertising for a City Planner shortly.

Until then, we need Raney's Planning & Management, Inc. services to continue to work on addressing three priorities that have been identified by staff, including addressing the zoning issue for the Misuraca Property, 15 Plymouth Highway, RV Storage on Highway 104, and the proposed Gas Station on Main Street and South Sacramento Street.

SCOPE OF WORK:

MAPPING REZONE AND CLEANUP PROJECT
Please find below Raney's scope of work, schedule, and budget for the Mapping Rezone and Cleanup Project (proposed project).

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Project Location
The project sites include approximately 18 properties located throughout the City of lone, California. Specific Assessor Parcel Numbers (APNs) and property addresses are anticipated to be identified by the City of lone (City) during the proposed project's processing. Raney assumes that all 18 properties would consist of existing single-family residences located within the Light Commercial Zoning District (C-1).

Project Description
The proposed project would rezone approximately 18 properties from C-1 to One- Family Dwelling Zoning District (R-1). The proposed rezones are intended to correct inconsistencies between the City's Zoning Map and the General Plan Land Use Map.

Raney assumes that the affected properties have Low Density General Plan Land Use Designations. Therefore, General Plan Amendments and Assembly Bill (AB) 52/ Senate Bill (SB) 18 Tribal Consultation are not anticipated to be required.

The proposed project requires the approval of a rezone of the approximately 18 properties from C-1 to R-1 (CEQA Exemption - Common Sense Exemption).

TENTATIVE SCHEDULE
The schedule could be lengthened or shortened depending on the needs of the City.

Factors that could lengthen or shorten the schedule include dates of receipt of project information, length of document reviews, changes in the project description, and unanticipated issues arising from County staff.

PLANNING & MANAGEMENT, INC.
• Raney costs assume that the provided data and information from the City and the project team is accurate and current and would be readily available. • Raney assumes that the provision of planning services would be a continuous process without excessive delays. Raney would propose to renegotiate the contract with respect to schedule and cost should substantial delays occur.

• Additional reviews and revisions beyond those included in this scope of work; • Changes in the project; and
• Requests or revisions for WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance.

Raney would renegotiate these items or charge on a time-and-materials basis.
