COUNCILMEMBER Responding to several questions by Councilmember Ortiz, Chief ORTIZ Hofford advised that: 1) current officers would probably not be interested in applying for the Communications and Records Supervisor position, nor would they have the needed skills to perform that type of job, 2) the $7,000 requested for Flock Safety would cover expenses through the end of the current fiscal year, with ongoing yearly costs of $49,000, 3) he elaborated on how he plans on lowering trending department overtime costs, and 4) current staffing levels and the staffing level needed to eliminate overtime costs.

COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Breceda noted that additional officers would need to BRECEDA be hired to reduce overtime costs.

DIRECTOR SIMPSON Director Simpson requested to unfreeze an Assistant Planner position, funding for continued contract services with planners to assist with specific projects, and funding for training for Code Enforcement officers.

MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tem Burrola asked about the required qualifications for BURROLA the Assistant Planner position, which Director Simpson elaborated on.

COUNCILMEMBER In response to a question by Councilmember Ortiz, Director Simpson ORTIZ advised that the current Planning Technician has been performing the work that typically would be performed by an Assistant Planner. She noted that having an Assistant Planner on board would aid in succession planning.

COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Garcia asked whether contract planners would better GARCIA serve the department’s needs, to which Director Simpson indicated that contract planners help on more complex matters, but that the Assistant Planner position would help in other planning matters that are unique to the City. Additionally, contract planners have high turnover rates which would negatively impact ongoing projects. Staff is hoping to conduct an internal recruitment for the Assistant Planner position.

COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Breceda spoke on his reluctance to fill the position BRECEDA internally, fearing that the staff member would receive training and then move to another agency. He stated that he would be willing to entertain fulfilling the department needs with contract planners, to which Director Simpson reiterated that contract planners have high turnover rates and noted that Irwindale requires a unique expertise that is gained through experience working in the department.

MAYOR AMBRIZ Mayor Ambriz asked for City Manager Miranda’s input on this request, to which he advised that he recommends reclassifying a current employee to the Assistant Planner position and described the staff member’s qualifications.

CITY MANAGER City Manager Miranda noted that funding the Assistant Planner MIRANDA position would also defund the staff member’s former position. He added that he would not recommend the reclassification if it weren’t necessary.

MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tem Burrola asked about the number of staff members in BURROLA the department, to which Director Simpson noted that it has four staff members plus one part-time intern. Mayor Pro Tem Burrola stated that he understood how the department needs to fill that position.

COUNCILMEMBER Responding to a question by Councilmember Breceda, City Manager BRECEDA Miranda stated that he is comfortable in recommending approval of all requested personnel requests.

DIRECTOR CHAN Director Chan asked for funding for the following capital improvement projects: a block wall for 5239 Morada Street, an Arrow Highway center median extension, an HVAC replacement for the Recreation Center, the Safe, Clean Water Program Arrow Highway Beautification project, pavement rehabilitation, and the filling of an Assistant Engineer position.

FRED BARBOSA Fred Barbosa asked why staff keeps “raiding” the mining fund, to which City Manager Miranda stated that financial assurances have been in place since the early 2000’s as part of the Reclamation Authority and noted that those funds have not been touched.

ANONYMOUS An anonymous Zoom attendee asked about a swimming pool renovation, to which Director Chan briefly summarized the project specifications.

SUZANNE GOMEZ Suzanne Gomez suggested that a community workshop be held to discuss improvements to the Aquatics Center. She also asked whether a frozen engineering position from last year is the same that is being requested this year.

DIRECTOR CHAN Director Chan noted that repairs would be conducted and deficiencies corrected based on the results of a feasibility study conducted on the state of the Aquatics Center. He also noted that the previously frozen position that Ms. Gomez referenced was for the Assistant City Engineer, which differs from the Assistant Engineer position.

MAYOR AMBRIZ In reply to a question by Mayor Ambriz, Director Chan advised that staff could conduct public outreach meetings for the swimming pool project to gain input and suggestions from members of the community. Director Chan added that staff has already arranged for the replacement of the pool water heater, which was completed around March.

DIRECTOR RODRIGUEZ Director Rodriguez provided additional details on the swimming pool project and noted that it is primarily scheduled to address needed repairs and to bring it up to ADA standards and noted that any community workshops would delay the project and the reopening of the pool.

SUZANNE GOMEZ Suzanne Gomez asked whether the proposed position would include any mining components.

RECESS At 7:24 p.m., the Council took a short recess due to technical difficulties with the Zoom meeting.

RECONVENE The meeting was reconvened at 7:32 p.m. with all members present.

DIRECTOR CHAN Director Chan stated that the proposed position would be funded equally through the General Fund and the Mining Fund.

events, increase in the number of available tickets for family trips, the addition on one concert for the Music in the Park concerts, and membership fees for CPRS for four staff members.

COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Ortiz asked about the requested funding for the ORTIZ Music in the Park, to which Director Rodriguez advised that the $10,000 that is being requested is due to increased program costs.

MARICELA FRYMARK Maricela Frymark asked whether the families of children that participate in the Cheer program could purchase uniforms, and asked about their costs, to which Director Rodriguez noted that the Parks & Recreation Commission asked staff to request funding for the cheer uniforms from the Irwindale Community Foundation. Previously, parents of program participants paid for the uniforms.

DIRECTOR RODRIGUEZ Director Rodriguez then presented budget requests for Operations and Maintenance, including maintenance to the Irwindale Park pourin-place floor, operating supplies, grounds maintenance, the purchase of an electric vehicle, supplies and annual costs for the school bus pass system, and bus parking for trips. She also requested approval of new Management Analyst and Maintenance Lead Worker positions.

MAYOR PRO TEM In response to Mayor Pro Tem Burrola’s question, Director Rodriguez BURROLA advised that city is required to have 50% of fleet vehicles be electric by 2027. Mayor Pro Tem Burrola voiced concern over a lack of available charging stations in the city for electric vehicles and asked whether it is necessary to purchase electric vehicles at this time, to which Director Rodriguez advised that the city needs to begin purchasing electric vehicles in 2024, with some exceptions. She stated that staff wishes to purchase an electric Ford F-150 and noted several locations within the City where the truck could be charged.

She added that staff is working on obtaining grants to obtain funding for the installation of electric charging stations in public parking lots.

Mayor Pro Tem Burrola then requested that staff purchase a lift truck with stabilizers, to which Supervisor Pedro Rodriguez indicated that the truck would likely have double stabilizers.

Mayor Pro Tem Burrola also asked about the qualifications for the two proposed staffing positions, to which Director Rodriguez stated that she is hoping to reclassify the existing Office Specialist to Management Analyst, and then fill the vacant Office Specialist with an external recruitment. The Maintenance Lead Worker position would also follow a similar procedure.

In response to several more questions from Mayor Pro Tem Burrola, Director Rodriguez explained the hiring processes for the two positions, as well as their job duties and requirements. Mayor Pro Tem Burrola expressed his belief that the Maintenance Lead Worker

Page 19 of 601 ends

CC / HA / RA MINUTES MAY 29, 2024
SPECIAL MEETING PAGE 8
is a new position, to which Director Rodriguez clarified that the position already exists, as does its job description.

Responding to a question by Mayor Pro Tem Burrola, City Manager Miranda stated that he would prefer to survey other cities to determine their qualifications for a position like Irwindale’s Maintenance Lead Worker position.

DIRECTOR RODRIGUEZ Director Rodriguez reiterated that the job description for the position already exists and noted that she is asking for a second Maintenance Lead Worker. She advised that the job description could not be changed without a meet and confer process between the City and the position’s bargaining unit.

MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tem Burrola stated that he would like more information on BURROLA the position before considering its approval.

SUPERVISOR Supervisor Rodriguez spoke on the need for the additional RODRIGUEZ Maintenance Lead Worker.

MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tem Burrola asked about hiring a contract janitor for the BURROLA Senior Center and transfer the existing city janitor to the maintenance division, to which Director Rodriguez advised that she needs assistance with the risk management portion of supervising work crews, which a Lead Worker would assume.

DIRECTOR RODRIGUEZ Director Rodriguez then discussed Senior Center budget requests that were funded by the Community Foundation, such as the Healthy Irwindale program, field trips, class supplies, classes, the Book Club, special events, monthly birthday celebrations, billiards table and piano maintenance. Budget requests for the Council include instructors for the ceramic painting and Hawaiian dance classes, as well as CPRS training for staff.

To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Accepting and approving the FY 2024-2025 operating budget, reallocation of previously donated funds, and carryforward of previous year's budget of the Irwindale Community Foundation
City Manager's Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-27-3504 entitled "A RESOLUTION

OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ACCEPTING AND APPROVING THE IRWINDALE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025: 1) OPERATING ANNUAL BUDGET; 2) REALLOCATION OF PREVIOUSLY DONATED FUNDS; AND 3) CARRYFORWARD PREVIOUS YEAR'S BUDGET."

Submitted/Prepared by:

Kambiz Borhani, Finance Director / City Treasurer
Reviewed by:

Theresa Olivares, Assistant City Manager
Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

The Irwindale Community Foundation (ICF) anticipates receiving a donation of $250,000 from Huy Fong Foods, Inc. in FY 2024-2025. This is consistent with donations the ICF has received in prior fiscal years. In line with the ICF’s mission, the ICF Board allocates donated funds for programs, services and

Page 25 of 601 ends

equipment that benefit the Irwindale community, and the ICF Board typically considers city programs and services in the areas of Aquatics, Library, Recreation, and Senior Center.

On March 19, April 8, and June 11, 2024, staff presented ICF’s proposed fiscal year (“FY”) 2024-2025 $17,480 operating budget along with the Executive Director's proposal for reallocation of the previously donated $101,595 amount for the purpose of providing community benefits and/or services. The ICF Board approved both the operating budget and the reallocation of funds as follows:

A resolution has been prepared to appropriate the funds, in accordance with the approved expenditure plan as determined on June 11, 2024.

Issue: Fee Waiver for Use of the Dan Diaz Recreation Center for the 4-Day Vote Center - November 5, 2024
City Manager's Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 2024-48-3525 entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

IRWINDALE APPROVING A FEE WAIVER FOR THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY REGISTRAR RECORDER, WAIVING CITY FACILITY RENTAL FEES FOR A VOTE CENTER FOR THE NOVEMBER 5, 2024 GENERAL

MUNICIPAL ELECTION AND APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE VOTE CENTER ELECTION PLAN".

Background and Analysis:

The Los Angeles County Registrar/Recorder will be conducting a General Election on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. In prior elections, the outer City Council Chambers had been made available to the County as a voting precinct. The County has implemented a new vote center model, to include multi-day access to voting and new ballot marking devices. Additional protocols related to room size have been established to ensure the continued health and safety of the voters and vote center staff, resulting in the outer City Council Chambers no longer being a viable venue as a vote center.

City staff and representatives from the Los Angeles County Registrar Recorder / County Clerk’s office worked collaboratively to identify the Dan Diaz Recreation Center Gymnasium as the CIty's vote center.

In November 2020, the Dan Diaz Recreation Center Gymnasium was utilized as a vote center with the entire gym floor used for voting equipment and vote center staff. The gym was not open to the public at that time due to state and countywide COVID-19 orders. Because programming has resumed at the facility, and in an effort to cause as minimal disruption as possible, only the west side of the gym floor will be used for the vote center equipment.

The following dates have been tentatively identified by the County in the Vote Center Election Plan and will mean that the west side of the gym floor will be for the exclusive use of the County during this time. While it cannot be guaranteed, staff has expressed to the County that the earliest possible pickup date is preferred. It is expected that there will be approximately 600 vote centers County-wide.

Vote Center Breakdown & Equipment

The County’s request to waive facility rental fees meets the criteria for consideration of a fee waiver

Page 32 of 601 ends

according to the City of Irwindale’s Fee Adjustment Policy by way of serving the public purpose of providing voting accessibility to the community, including the residents of the City of Irwindale, the employees of local businesses who are registered voters in Los Angeles County, and any registered Los Angeles County voter who may wish to utilize the vote center in Irwindale.

The Vote Center Facility Use Agreement was approved by the City Council on December 13, 2023 for both the March Presidential Primary and the November5, 2024 General elections. The City Council will now consider the approval of the Vote Center Election Plan for the November 5, 2024 election.

As a public entity, the County is self-insured and has provided a copy of Certificate of Self Insurance Coverage to staff.

Fiscal Impact:

The approval of this item will result in a fee waiver of approximately $5,850 (78 hours of use x $75/hour for a non-profit organization). This fee would have otherwise been collected as revenue to the General Fund.

That the City Council adopt on second reading by title only with further reading waived Ordinance No. 778, entitled “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ADOPTING AND ADDING SECTION 17.04.090 (“PUBLIC PROJECT EXEMPTION”) TO CHAPTER 17.04 (“GENERAL PROVISIONS AND REGULATIONS”) OF TITLE 17 (“ZONING”) OF THE IRWINDALE MUNICIPAL CODE TO EXEMPT PUBLIC PROJECTS FROM THE ZONING CODE,” and find the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) Administrative Action:

Approved by:

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

At its meeting of June 12, 2024, the City Council introduced the above ordinance for first reading.

The City of Irwindale does not currently exempt its City-initiated development and public projects from the Irwindale Zoning Code, set forth in Title 17 of the Irwindale Municipal Code. This means that when the City initiates a project, the City must obtain approvals from the Planning Commission and City Council, just as any other project applicant. This would include Site Plan and Design Review approval.

Because the City has the authority institute its own land use regulations and has the power make and enforce regulations designed to promote the public convenience or the general prosperity, as well as regulations designed to promote the public health, the public morals, or the public safety, the City may exempt itself from the land use regulations and permitting requirements set forth in the Zoning Code.

This would improve the efficiency of public projects by eliminating the need to seek project development approvals, use permits, or zone changes following City Council direction to initiate a public project.

Exempting the City from its Zoning Code would authorize City staff to process any City-initiated projects administratively and would negate the need for the City to request entitlements from the Planning Commission and City Council in order to build City projects.

The proposed exemption would be added to the Irwindale Municipal Code as section 7.04.090 and would exempt any City initiated project for public purposes by the City of Irwindale. This is consistent with the City of Irwindale’s General Plan because the General Plan contemplates that public land would be used for various governmental activities, including government offices, schools, hospitals, and libraries, and this includes projects initiated for the benefit of general public welfare. The proposed Ordinance is in the best interest of the public health, safety, and welfare of the community. The Public Project Exemption will improve the efficiency of implementation of public projects directed by the City Council by eliminating the need to comply with specific development standards.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970, as amended, and the City of Irwindale environmental guidelines, the Project has been determined to qualify for a general rule exemption pursuant to CEQA Section 15061(b)(3) in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Zoning Code Amendment, by itself, will have a significant effect on the environment.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no cost with the City Council approval of the Zoning Ordinance Amendment.

Background and Analysis:

The current five-year contract between the City of Irwindale and Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control (DACC) is set to expire on June 30, 2024. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved the Renewal Agreement for Animal Care and Control Services for contract cities on February 6, 2024. This new five-year contract commences July 1, 2024, and expires on June 30, 2029.

In March 2024, Staff began conducting research and contacting other humane societies in the San Gabriel Valley area to see if they are able to provide animal care and control services for new cities.

The three humane societies contacted are not accepting cities and took a long time to answer City Staff’s questions due to their workload and uncertainty of whether or not they will open the program to new cities. The following table outlines the humane societies contacted and their availability to take on new cities.

Maybe. They
would need to
complete an
analysis to see
what level of
service the City
would require to
determine if they
are able to
accept a new
city.

It is staff’s recommendation to continue service with Los Angeles County DACC due to their resources, the proximity of the LA County Baldwin Park Shelter, and the cost to serve Irwindale remains competitive due to our level of service requested and our residential population.

Should the City want to terminate the contract for any reason, there is a termination clause in the agreement (Section 7.1) that states either party may terminate the Agreement as of the first day of July of any year upon notice in writing to the other Party at least sixty (60) days before the termination date.

Staff and the City Attorney have reviewed and approved the contract agreement, service levels, and billing rates for Animal Control and Care Services.

Fiscal Impact:

Sufficient funds are budgeted under Public Works Contracts Account No. 01-57-570-42353-0000 in the amount of $60,000 for Fiscal Year 2024/2025.

Dear Mr. Miranda:

NEW MUNICIPAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR

ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL SERVICES
FISCAL YEARS 2024-29
We hope this message finds you well. We would like to inform you that the current five-year City-County Municipal Services Agreement (the "Agreement") for animal care and control services is set to expire on June 30, 2024. We are pleased to inform you the new Agreement for Fiscal Year 2024-2029 has now been finalized and is available for your review and signature.

New City-County Municipal Services Agreements
As part of our commitment to maintaining effective collaboration, the County of Los Angeles (County) Department of Animal Care and Control (Department) took proactive steps to ensure that the new Agreement reflects the needs and input of our partner cities. On October 16, 2023, we sent a draft of the new Agreement to your city for review and input, and on June 26, 2023, we conducted a survey to gather valuable feedback from our partnered cities to inform the development of this Agreement. We are immensely grateful for the feedback received; it played a pivotal role in shaping the Agreement.

Revisions to the Agreement are summarized below:

City-County Municipal Services Agreement
Revision Type Section Explanation
Added Section 2.3
The City may distribute educational and
outreach materials, reviewed and
agreed upon by both the Department
and the City, related to pet licensing and
its benefits.

Per City requests, grants
cities the autonomy to
distribute materials
pertaining to animal care
and control services, if
approved by the
Department.

Added Section 3.2
In the event of a dispute between the
Parties about the desired or approved
content of the SLR, the dispute will be
handled in accordance with
Paragraph 2.2 of this Agreement.

Further clarifies the
process for disputes
relating to services
defined in the Service
Level Request (SLR).

Added Section 3.4
The City is only required to submit a
new SLR if it wishes to revise its current
services or update information listed on
its existing SLR.

Regarding updates to contact
information, the City is not obligated to
submit a new SLR. A simple email
confirmation from the City will suffice,
and the Department's Contracts and
Grants Division will update the City's
existing SLR and share the revised
copy with the City.

Removes the need for
cities to resubmit a new
SLR each time there is a
contact update. This is to
help streamline the
process for contract cities
and remove the burden of
unnecessary steps.

Added Section 3.5
The City will make its best effort to
inform the Department of any
modifications to its ordinance
concerning animal care and control
services. This approach will enable the
Department to verify that the services
outlined in the City's SLR align with the
municipal ordinance, thereby reducing
the potential for any discrepancies.

Helps ensure consistency
between city ordinances
and what is listed on the
SLR document.

Revised Sections 4.5 and 4.6
Changed the order of Sections 4.5 and

4.6. Changed to improve the
flow of the content

Page 56 of 601 ends

Mr. Julian Miranda
February 12, 2024

Page 3 ends

Revised Section 7.5
In the event of termination, both Parties
shall fulfill all obligations owed to each
other that have accrued before the date
of termination. Additionally, each Party
will be released from any obligations
that would have accrued after the
termination date had the Agreement
continued. However, the City will remain
responsible for payment to the
Department for any services provided
under this Agreement prior to the
termination date.

Further clarifies the
language on the
termination of the
Agreement and the
responsibilities of each
party.

Revised Section 10.1
Each Party shall designate a Primary
Contact, as identified in Attachment B,
Service Level Request, to facilitate the
services covered by this Agreement.

The Department accepts both physical
(wet) signatures and electronic
signatures for any notices or
correspondence related to this
Agreement.

Helps clarify the
notification process and
makes electronic
signatures allowable for
any notices or
correspondence related
to the Agreement.

Revised Section 11.1
With the exception of changes to a
City’s contact information, any changes,
modifications, or amendments to the
Agreement must be in writing and duly
executed by the Director of the
Department, or his/her designee, and
an authorized representative of the City.

The only exception to this requirement
applies to updates to the City's contact
information, which may be made
through an email from the City.

Allows cities to update
the contact information
on their SLR via an email
confirmation, thereby
removing the requirement
to resubmit a new SLR
each time a contact
needs to be updated.

CITY-COUNTY MUNICIPAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL CARE

AND CONTROL AND CITY OF IRWINDALE
THIS MUNICIPAL ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) between the COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES (“the County”) and the CITY OF IRWINDALE (“the City”), together known as “the Parties,” is made and entered into July 1, 2024, or when signed by all Parties, whichever is later.

RECITALS
a. The City desires to contract with the County to perform the animal care and control functions described in this Agreement; and
b. The County is agreeable to providing such services on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; and
c. Such agreements are authorized and provided for by the provisions of Section 56-1/2 and 56-3/4 of the Charter of the County of Los Angeles and sections 51300 et seq. of the Government Code of the State of California.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for good and valuable consideration, the Parties mutually agree as follows:

1.0 AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE SERVICES UNDER STATE AND LOCAL

STATUTES

1.1 The County agrees, through the County Department of Animal Care and Control (“the Department”), to provide general animal care and control services within the corporate limits of the City to the extent and in the manner stated in the Agreement and its Attachments.

1.2 Except as otherwise specifically stated in the Agreement, the services will only encompass duties and functions of the type coming within the jurisdiction of and customarily provided by the County under the Charter of the County, the Los Angeles County Code, and the statutes of the State of California. The County will provide services in accordance with the provisions of Title 10, “Animals,” of the Los Angeles County Code, and all amendments enacted to Title 10, except as otherwise agreed by the Parties in the most recently executed Service Level Request.

Page 61 of 601 ends
Page 3 of 11 ends

2.0 ADMINISTRATION OF PERSONNEL

2.1 The County will control all aspects of the services provided by the County including, but not limited to, standards of performance, discipline of officers and staff, and all employment-related matters.

2.2 In the event of a dispute between the Parties regarding the duties and services to be provided, or the minimum level or manner of performance of such services, the City will be consulted and an agreement between the Parties attempted. Each party must employ good-faith and reasonable efforts to reach an agreement. If an agreement cannot be reached, the County will make the final and conclusive determination of the dispute.

2.3 All City employees who work with the Department under the Agreement will remain employees of the City and will not have any claim or right to employment, civil service protection, salary, benefits, or claims of any kind from the County. No City employee will become an employee of the County unless by specific additional agreement in the form of a merger contract, which must be concurrently adopted by the City and County. Except as otherwise specifically set forth in the Agreement or in the attached Service Level Request, to the extent the County provides the City with animal licensing services, neither the City employees nor their agents will perform any function related to the licensing of animals, including the collection of license fees, penalties, or field enforcement fees. Field enforcement fees will only be collected by the Department for services performed by employees of the Department. The City may distribute educational and outreach materials, reviewed and agreed upon by both the Department and the City, related to pet licensing and its benefits.

2.4 For the purposes of performing services under the Agreement, and only for the purpose of giving authority for Department staff to provide these services, every County officer and/or employee engaged in performing any service will be deemed to be a contracted officer or employee of the City while performing service for the City, provided the service is within the scope of the Agreement and is a municipal function.

2.5 The City will not assume any liability for the direct payment of salaries, wages, or other compensation to County personnel performing services under the Agreement. Except as described under Section 5.0, the City will not be liable for compensation or indemnity to any County employee or agent of the County for injury or sickness arising out of his/her employment while providing services under the Agreement.

2.6 The County agrees that it is subject to the County Civil Services Rules prohibiting discrimination based on non-merit factors.

Page 62 of 601 ends
Page 4 of 11 ends

3.0 DEPLOYMENT OF PERSONNEL

3.1 The Department, in cooperation with the City, will determine how to provide the services required by the Agreement.

3.2 The City agrees to complete an Attachment B, Service Level Request (SLR) form, specifying the level of service to be provided, which will be signed and authorized by the City and the Department representative and attached to the Agreement. In the event of a dispute between the Parties about the desired or approved content of the SLR will be handled in accordance with Paragraph 2.2 of this Agreement.

3.3 The Department will issue annual notifications of any change to the billing rate as stated in Paragraph 8.2 of this Agreement. Unless the City changes other provisions within the most recently executed SLR, it is not necessary to execute a revised SLR to reflect a billing rate change.

3.4 The City may at any time request a change in the level of service by completing a revised SLR, and submitting the form to the Department. The revised level of service to be provided and the current fiscal year billing rate will be signed and authorized by the City and the Department representative and attached to the Agreement as an amendment. Changes requested at times other than the beginning of the fiscal year will be implemented as soon as practical, as determined by the Department. The City is only required to submit a new SLR if it wishes to revise its current services or update information listed on its existing SLR. The Department reserves the right to approve or disapprove requests on the SLR in accordance with Section 3.1 of this Agreement.

Regarding updates to contact information, the City is not obligated to submit a new SLR. A simple email confirmation from the City will suffice, and the Department's Contracts and Grants Division will update the City's existing SLR and share the revised copy with the City.

3.5 The City will make its best effort to inform the Department of any modifications to its ordinance concerning animal care and control services.

This approach will enable the Department to verify that the services outlined in the City's SLR align with the municipal ordinance, thereby reducing the potential for any discrepancies.

3.6 The City is not limited to the services indicated but may also request any other services in the field of public safety, animal welfare, or related fields within the legal power of the Director of the Department to provide. The County reserves the right to determine, in its sole discretion, whether the Department can provide requested services not otherwise specified in this Agreement.

Page 5 of 11 ends

4.0 PERFORMANCE OF CONTRACT

4.1 In performing services under the Agreement, the County will provide all necessary labor, supervision, equipment, communication facilities, and supplies necessary to maintain the agreed upon level of service.

4.2 Nothing in the Agreement prohibits the City from providing, at the City’s expense, additional resources for the County to utilize in its performance of the services.

4.3 Any use of special supplies, stationery, notices, or forms, in other than standard Department format, must be approved by the Director of the Department, or his/her designee, and supplied by the City at its own cost.

4.4 If requested, the Department will use its best efforts to attend one in-person meeting with the City, up to three hours duration, per quarter at no charge to the City. Additional meetings may be scheduled under unusual or urgent circumstances as agreed upon by the Department. The City will pay the hourly rate listed in Attachment C, City-County Municipal Services Billing Rates, for any additional hours of the Department's contract management staff's time at meetings requested by the City. Due to a lack of availability of meeting space in County facilities, the City will provide a mutually agreed upon meeting space and location, or virtual meeting link, for all in-person and/or virtual meetings or meet at the Department’s headquarters in Long Beach, California.

4.5 If requested, the Department will use its best efforts to coordinate a virtual meeting once per month at no charge to the City. Additional meetings may be scheduled under unusual or urgent circumstances as agreed upon by the Department. The City will pay the hourly rate listed in Attachment C, City-County Municipal Services Billing Rates, for any additional hours of County representatives’ time at meetings requested by the City.

4.6 If requested, the Department will use its best efforts to send representatives to the City’s Council meetings for proposed ordinance changes, contract revisions, or any related animal issues where input from the Department is needed. The Department will only attend these meetings to the extent that resources and capacity will allow.

4.7 The Department will make available upon request, at no charge to the City, the reports listed in Attachment A, Description of Services, at the intervals indicated in that attachment.

COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES

ATTACHMENT A

DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL CARE AND CONTROL

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES
I. Animal Care Services
The County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control (Department) maintains seven animal care centers that accept stray, lost, abandoned, and relinquished animals. The Department also receives and maintains animals that are victims of abuse or neglect, under a quarantine order, or that pose a risk to the public. Stray or lost animals are held for an initial period to give an owner the opportunity to reclaim them. Ownerrelinquished animals are held for an initial period prior to euthanasia or adoption to a new home, pursuant to State law. The holding period may vary and may be extended in an attempt to reunite the animal with an identified owner or for other reasons.

The Department is dedicated to providing appropriate and safe housing to all animals accepted into the Department’s care. The Department is required by law to provide a safe environment with proper food, water, shelter, opportunity for exercise, and medical care for the animals it houses. Medical care may be provided by Department staff or, at the Department’s sole discretion, outsourced to a contracted veterinarian.

As requested by the City in Attachment B, Service Level Request, the Department will provide the City with either: Full Care Center Services; Animal Care for Transfer only; or No Care Center Services.

A. Full Care Center Services
All animals collected in the field within the boundaries of the City or determined to have originated from within the boundaries of the City may be housed at a County animal care center. Admitted animals will be vaccinated and provided medical care, food, water, and shelter. The Department may post an animal’s picture on the Department’s website to assist residents in reclaiming a lost or missing pet or finding a new one. Residents may also visit the associated animal care center to find their lost or missing pet. The hours of operation of each animal care center may be found on the Department's website.

The Department will make reasonable attempts to house animals from the City at the animal care center closest to the City. The nearest animal care center to the City will be designated as the primary animal care center. There may be circumstances in which the Department will house animals collected from the City at an alternate location.

Page 1 of 7 ends
Page 71 of 601 ends
Page 2 of 9 ends

Full Animal Care Center services include:
• Providing food, water, shelter, enrichment, and medical care for animals in the Department’s care;
• Holding stray animals and attempting to reunite them with their owners; • Accepting unwanted animals surrendered by their owners; • Making best efforts to find new adoptive homes for domestic animals and livestock;
• Quarantine and observation of animals for rabies and other diseases at the direction of the Department of Public Health;
• Working with wildlife rehabilitators to rescue sick and injured wildlife; • Providing emergency care and housing to pets and livestock displaced by wildfires or other disasters;
• Holding animals that are the subject of criminal investigations or other legal or administrative proceedings;
• Spay and neuter services for dogs and cats pursuant to State law; • Medical treatment and surgeries to make animals more adoptable; • Euthanizing sick, injured, dangerous, unweaned, feral, or un-adoptable animals;
• Public services, including prevention of animal abuse, neglect, or abandonment through outreach and education, and intervention through finding alternatives to relinquishment and assisting at-risk populations; • Filing annual reports to the State of California as required by law; • Disposal of dead animals;
• Maintaining a website with pictures of stray and surrendered animals to facilitate reuniting the animals with their owners or finding new adoptive homes;
• Connecting pet owners to services to increase owner retention of pets; and • Maintaining regular hours of operation for the public.

B. Animal Care for Transfer
If the City has opted for Animal Care for Transfer services in Attachment B, the Department will provide temporary housing until the City has transported the animal(s) to another animal care facility. Services will be the same as described for Full Shelter Service above. The Department will only release animals to be transported to an animal care facility approved in advance by the Department and documented in Attachment B. The Department will only release an animal to persons capable of transferring an animal safely in a vehicle appropriate for the humane transfer of the animal. The City will be responsible for all costs of the temporary care and housing at the Department’s animal care center, as well as the subsequent costs of transportation, care, and housing at the animal care location of the City’s choice. The Department may refuse to release an animal for transport if, in the reasonable assessment of the Department, the vehicle in which the City desires the animal(s) to be transported poses an unacceptable risk of harm to the animal(s) or others, or if the animal is

Page 72 of 601 ends
Page 3 of 9 ends

ill or injured to the extent that transportation would cause further injury or suffering.

The Department will not provide transportation from the field or from a County animal care center to any alternate animal care location, except as necessary for the needs of the County. If necessary, the Department may transport an animal(s) to an alternative animal care location of the City’s choice and the City will be responsible for the cost of such transport at the current billing rate for field service staff.

The City will be responsible for all costs for the admission, care, and housing at the Department's animal care center, as well as the subsequent costs of care and housing at any animal care facility of the City's choice. The City's designated animal care center location is listed in Attachment B, Service Level Request.

II. Field Services
The County will provide the services set forth below in accordance with the provisions of the Los Angeles County Code, Title 10, “Animals,” and all future amendments, except as otherwise agreed to by the Parties in Attachment B, Service Level Request.

A request by the City for the Department to enforce Los Angeles County Code, Title 10, Chapter 37, will authorize the Department to provide an administrative hearing process to accomplish the enforcement when applicable.

In order to harmonize the terms of this Agreement with the provisions of the City’s municipal code, the City must adopt Title 10 “Animals” of the Los Angeles County Code (“Title 10”). The City may adopt or opt out of provisions of Title 10 only as agreed to by the Department. The City is encouraged, but not required to, adopt Title 10 in such a way as to incorporate all future amendments.

The Department will inform the City of any proposed changes to Title 10 with as much advance notice as practical, with the intention to provide the City with an opportunity to submit input to the Department and the County related to the proposed changes. The Department will notify the City of the passage of any change to Title 10 by the County Board of Supervisors as soon as practical. The Department will inform the City whether the City may adopt or opt out of the changes to Title 10.

Description of Field Services
The Department will provide sufficient resources and services for animal control field services. Services consist of Department personnel performing a variety of tasks utilizing appropriate equipment. These tasks include:
• Promptly responding to reports of vicious and dangerous animals that pose a threat to public safety;

Page 73 of 601 ends
Page 4 of 9 ends

• Capturing, reuniting, and admitting stray domestic animals; • Capturing and impounding or returning domestic animals at large; • Accepting and caring for animals surrendered by their owners; • Removal of dead land animals (limited to a maximum of 150 pounds) from public and private property as set forth in Section 10.12.130 of the County Code; • Educating the public and enforcing State laws and local ordinances, including leash laws, animal cruelty laws, and the laws relating to keeping wild or exotic animals;
• Investigating cases for possible criminal prosecution, including misdemeanor and felony crimes; issuing citations; collecting evidence; preparing reports; testifying in court and other hearings;
• Investigating appropriate cases for potential administrative actions pertaining to animals; preparing appropriate documentation to pursue administrative declarations; conducting administrative hearings, consistent with state and County laws; and defending declarations that are challenged in court; • Rescuing ill, injured, or abused animals;
• Enforcing animal nuisance complaints such as excessive animal noise and other violations; issuing administrative or criminal citations as appropriate; • Assisting local law enforcement with their investigations when animals are involved, such as the service of search warrants and impounding animals as evidence or when necessary for those belonging to persons taken into custody; • Responding to emergencies such as fires, earthquakes, floods, and other natural or manmade disasters to rescue and temporarily house animals, or to provide care for animals in evacuation zones;
• Maintain a 24-hour dispatch and communications center to receive calls for service and dispatch staff for field response as appropriate; and • Maintaining records in accordance with applicable laws and policies.

A. Standard Service Plan
The Standard Service Plan includes answering calls for service 24 hours per day, seven days per week, dispatching or assigning field staff, and performing duties in the field based on priority, location, and availability of staff. Services provided under the Standard Service Plan are similar to those services the Department provides to unincorporated communities in Los Angeles County.

Page 74 of 601 ends
Page 5 of 9 ends

B. Limited Service Plan
The Limited Service Plan includes standard services on a part-time basis during days and hours specified in the Service Level Request. Billing rates are described in Attachment C, City-County Municipal Services Billing Rates.

III. Alternatives to Care Center Admissions
The Department's “Alternatives to Care Center Admissions” services are activities that go beyond providing housing for dogs and cats, and have the effect of keeping pets out of care centers and in homes and healthy environments. This includes staff counseling pet owners or connecting them with resources such as free pet food and supplies, medical vouchers, temporary housing, access to a medical helpline, and other critical resources all intended to help keep pets with their families. The Department also offers a variety of pet assistance programs, known collectively as the Pets Are Family (PAF) program, which is funded almost entirely through donations and grants received by the Department. A summary of the programs offered under PAF can be found on our website (https://animalcare.lacounty.gov/dacc-support-services).

As a result of these efforts, the number of dogs and cats admitted into Department animal care centers has decreased dramatically due to the Department reducing preventable pet surrenders. These programs are only available to cities that opt into Full Care Center Services and are charged at a flat per capita rate as indicated in Attachment C, CityCounty Municipal Services Billing Rates.

Managed Intake
Managed Intake (MI) is a strategy that allows agencies to manage and reduce the flow of both owned pets and homeless animals into their care, which is accomplished by partnering with the community and providing resources and solutions. Through the Department’s intervention services, pet owners receive support in the form of consultation, financial resources, and referrals — both medical and behavioral — to assist them with their pet-related issues. MI has reduced the number of surrendered animals admitted to the Department’s care centers to those who have no other opportunity for rehoming. This is reducing the costs for cities that are associated with sheltering cats and dogs.

Components of Managed Intake:
• Community Engagement is key to successfully employing Managed Intake, giving the community an opportunity to foster, network animals, facilitate adoptions, and to develop solutions to keep pets with their owners.
• The Department encourages people who have found stray animals to attempt to reunite the pets with their families. The Department also encourages residents to

Page 75 of 601 ends
Page 6 of 9 ends

allow free roaming cats to remain where they live, as these are often pets or community cats.
• To reduce the relinquishment of owned pets, the Department will provide resources such as training, food, and supplies, or other support to help keep pets in their homes.
• Public safety and animal welfare are a priority. Animals that pose a safety threat will immediately and safely be admitted by the Department, as will animals that are sick or injured.

IV. Individual Animal Licensing Services
Adult dogs four months of age and older are required by State law to have individual licenses. The City may request that the Department enforce licensing requirements in the City for dogs, cats, or other animals as described in Attachment B. The City may adopt the County’s fees for individual animal licenses or set its own fees as permitted in Attachment B.

License renewal notices are mailed or transmitted by the Department to the animal owner of record. The renewal and payment are received and processed on a fee-per-license basis. Pet owners may opt into a one- or three-year license option for their pets. A current license will be required before an animal will be released to a resident of the City.

Fees from one- and three-year licenses collected will be credited to the City monthly in arrears.

The Department’s animal licensing services include:
• Issuing animal licenses for pets as requested by the City; • Processing license applications, payments, and information changes; • Issuing license renewal notices;
• Assessing and collecting fees, penalties, and other financial remittances; • Maintaining a database for animal licensing, records of calls for service, and actions taken; and
• Maintaining the Rabies Vaccination Certificate tool database which scans rabies vaccination data reported by private veterinary clinics to identify unlicensed pets in our jurisdictions and generate compliance notices to pet owners.

V. Additional Outreach and Enforcement Services Options The City may request that the Department provide additional services as outlined below.

A. Animal License Enforcement Services
License Enforcement Services provides staff to perform individual animal license

Page 76 of 601 ends
Page 7 of 9 ends

enforcement in designated areas within the City. This program includes:
• Issuing new licenses and renewing expired licenses;
• Issuing citations to violators of animal licensing ordinances; • Collecting license revenue, delinquency charges, and authorized fees; and • Recording licensing data in the Department's database.

B. Animal Facility Licensing
The Department's Animal Facility Licensing program provides staff to perform animal facility inspections and licensing to animal-related businesses or organizations that require a license under Title 10 of the County Code. Animal-related facilities are inspected annually to ensure the safety and well-being of the animals as well as the health and safety of the public. Licensees are provided a letter grade based on the results of the inspection.

The Department retains facility license fees to offset the cost of annual inspections and related administrative costs. Staff time for licensing and inspections is not billed to the City. Investigations in response to complaints about activities at a licensed location are conducted by field officers based in the Department's animal care centers and are billed in accordance with Attachment C, City-County Municipal Services Billing Rates.

This program includes:
• Annual inspection of any premise used by an animal-related business or nonprofit organization, including grooming shops, pet shops, boarding facilities or breeding facilities, animal menageries, and all other places where animals are maintained for profit or business activities;
• Issuing grades to animal facilities consistent with the requirements of Section

10.28.270 of the County Code;
• Follow-up inspections of animal facilities as necessary; • Collection of license fees to offset the cost of services; and • Documentation and maintenance of records as necessary.

C. Vaccination and Microchip Clinics
California Health and Safety Code Section 121690(f) states that every city and county, "shall provide dog vaccination clinics, or arrange for dog vaccination at clinics." The Department holds periodic low-cost rabies vaccination and microchip clinics at its animal care centers. If the City chooses additional rabies vaccination and microchip clinics, the following services are offered:

Page 77 of 601 ends
Page 8 of 9 ends

• Providing or assisting in arranging for low-cost vaccinations and microchips; • Staffing low-cost vaccination and microchip clinics with medical personnel and necessary support staff, subject to availability;
• Licensing animals vaccinated at the clinic; and
• Assisting jurisdictions in promoting these community-based clinics.

D. Spay/Neuter Trust Fund
The City may elect to contribute $5.00 per altered and unaltered dog license to the Spay/Neuter Trust Fund. Participation in the Spay/Neuter Trust Fund allows the Department to offer a low-cost or free spay/neuter program for the City’s residents who wish to have their pets spayed or neutered. The Department staff will work with animal care center veterinary clinics and mobile veterinary clinics to assist qualified residents in obtaining spay/neuter services in an area near them.

VI. Records
Upon reasonable notice, the Department will make available to authorized representatives of the City, for examination, audit, excerpt, copy, or transcription, any pertinent transaction, activity, or other record relating to the Agreement. The City must ensure such records are handled in a manner consistent with all applicable privacy laws and all laws related to the Public Records Act (Government Code sections 7920.000 et. seq.).

Upon request, the following standard reports are available from the Department on a monthly basis:

1. Dogs and/or Cats Impounded

2. Animals Returned to Owners

3. Dogs and/or Cats Abandoned

4. Special Admission Dog & Cat

5. Other Animals Impounded

Date: June 26, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Approve the First Amendment to the Contract Services Agreement for the Senior Center Nutrition Program
City Manager's Recommendation:

That the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a First Amendment to the Contract Services Agreement with TRIO Community Meals for the Senior Center Nutrition Meal Program.

Administrative Action:

Submitted/Prepared by:

Elizabeth Rodriguez, Public Services Director

Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Background and Analysis:

The City of Irwindale provides free to low-cost nutritional lunches at the Irwindale Senior Center Monday - Friday, with the exception of special events and the monthly birthday breakfast celebrations.

Page 80 of 601 ends

In 2003, the City of Irwindale hired Morrison Management Specialists to provide these meals from the Senior Center’s Nutritional Lunch Program. During this time, there were approximately 40 seniors who were served lunch at the Irwindale Senior Center and an additional 10-15 homebound senior meals delivered; however, the City did not have current contract and was receiving services on a month-tomonth basis.

In January 2018, the City released a RFP for the Senior Center Nutrition Program, two (2) proposals were submitted, and Morrison's was determined the most responsive proposal received. As staff prepared the contract, Morrison's sold their business to Bateman Community Living (Bateman).

Bateman accepted the terms agreed to by Morrison's and the City entered into a five (5) year contract agreement with Bateman that included the possibility of two (2), one (1) year extensions. Additionally, the cost per meal in 2018 was $3.95 and Bateman proposed a cost increase of $4.07 per meal, which was a 3% increase from the previous year. The City agreed to the cost increase and both the City and Bateman agreed to language in the contract agreement stating the contract amount is subject to an annual CPI increase, not to exceed 3% per year.

In August 2021, Bateman Community Living changed its name to Elior, Inc. dba TRIO Community Meals, LLC in an effort to alight three leaders in the senior nutrition segment under one name and continued with the same contract and contract terms.

In March 2024, TRIO Community Meals sent City Staff a letter requesting a 4.5% CPI Increase for these services. As per the contract agreement with Bateman Community Living, the CPI increase cannot exceed 3% per year administratively. City Council approval is required for any request over 3%.

Additionally, staff is recommending the contract agreement be approved for two, one (1) year extensions based on their excellent service, timely deliveries, and exceptional communication with staff. As a result, now would be the time to update the name of the current company, approve the

4.5% CPI increase, and approve both of the two (2), one (1) year extensions under a contract amendment to extend the contract through June 30, 2026.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost of services for Fiscal Year 2023/2024 was $65,181.05. Trio Community Meals is requesting a

4.5% increase of $4.25 per meal, or an additional $2,934 per year or a total of $68,115. Sufficient funding is available in the fiscal year 2024/2025 Budget for this amount.

The interview panel consisted of two (2) Public Works Services staff and one (1) staff member from City Administration.

Staff reached out to BriteWorks to negotiate the cost down to $12,847.12 and they accepted. Therefore, the yearly base bid/option #1 cost to provide services to the City of Irwindale is $154,165.44 plus $1,300 to provide 4th of July Services for a total of $155,465.44. These costs are subject to CPI increase or decrease each year and are based on the prior calendar year in the California Consumer Price Index (for all items) as determined by the California Department of Industrial Relations, all as more fully set forth pursuant to the provisions of Section 2212 of the Revenue and Taxation Code of the state.

The initial contract term for janitorial services will expire on June 30, 2027, with an option for two (2) additional one (1) year periods. Renewal will be exercised based upon the level of satisfaction with services provided by the Contractor.

There is currently $113,600 budgeted for Janitorial Services under Public Works Contracts in the FY2024-2025 Budget. An appropriation of $42,000 is required from the General Fund Reserves for FY2024-2025 Budget in order to fully fund the annual contract amount of $155,465.44.

Sub-contractor charges shall also be detailed by such categories. Contractor shall not invoice City for any duplicate services performed by more than one person.

City shall independently review each invoice submitted by Contractor to determine whether the work performed and expenses incurred are in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

In the event any charges or expenses are disputed by City, the original invoice shall be returned by City to Contractor for correction and resubmission. Review and payment by City for any invoice provided by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies provided herein or any applicable law.

Additionally, Contractor shall utilize only competent personnel to perform services pursuant to this Agreement. Contractor shall make every reasonable effort to maintain the stability and continuity of Contractor’s staff and subcontractors, if any, assigned to perform the services required under this Agreement. Contractor shall notify City of any changes in Contractor’s staff and subcontractors, if any, assigned to perform the services required under this Agreement, prior to and during any such performance.

4.2 Status of Contractor.

Contractor shall have no authority to bind City in any manner, or to incur any obligation, debt or liability of any kind on behalf of or against City, whether by contract or otherwise, unless such authority is expressly conferred under this Agreement or is otherwise expressly conferred in writing by City. Contractor shall not at any time or in any manner represent that Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, or agents are in any manner officials, officers, employees or agents of City. Neither Contractor, nor any of Contractor’s officers, employees or agents, shall obtain any rights to retirement, health care or any other benefits which may otherwise accrue to City’s employees. Contractor expressly waives any claim Contractor may have to any such rights.

4.3 Contract Officer.

The Contract Officer shall be the City Manager [or such person as may be designated by the Assistant City Manager]. It shall be Contractor’s responsibility to assure that the Contract Officer is kept informed of the progress of the performance of the services and Contractor shall refer any decisions which must be made by City to the Contract Officer. Unless otherwise specified herein, any approval of City required hereunder shall mean the approval of the Contract Officer.

The Contract Officer shall have authority, if specified in writing by the City Manager, to sign all documents on behalf of City required hereunder to carry out the terms of this Agreement.

4.4 Independent Contractor.

Neither City nor any of its employees shall have any control over the manner, mode or means by which Contractor, its agents or employees, perform the services required herein, except as otherwise set forth herein. City shall have no voice in the selection, discharge, supervision or control of Contractor’s employees, servants, representatives or agents, or in fixing their number, compensation or hours of service. Contractor shall perform all services required herein as an

Page 101 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -7-
independent contractor of City and shall remain at all times as to City a wholly independent contractor with only such obligations as are consistent with that role. Contractor shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its agents or employees are agents or employees of City. City shall not in any way or for any purpose become or be deemed to be a partner of Contractor in its business or otherwise or a joint venturer or a member of any joint enterprise with Contractor.

4.5 Prohibition Against Subcontracting or Assignment.

The experience, knowledge, capability and reputation of Contractor, its principals and employees were a substantial inducement for City to enter into this Agreement. Therefore, Contractor shall not contract with any other entity to perform in whole or in part the services required hereunder without the express written approval of City. In addition, neither this Agreement nor any interest herein may be transferred, assigned, conveyed, hypothecated or encumbered voluntarily or by operation of law, whether for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, without the prior written approval of City. Transfers restricted hereunder shall include the transfer to any person or group of persons acting in concert of more than twenty five percent (25%) of the present ownership and/or control of Contractor, taking all transfers into account on a cumulative basis. In the event of any such unapproved transfer, including any bankruptcy proceeding, this Agreement shall be void. No approved transfer shall release Contractor or any surety of Contractor of any liability hereunder without the express consent of City.

A policy of comprehensive general liability insurance written on a per occurrence basis for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. The policy of insurance shall be in an amount not less than $2,000,000.00 per occurrence or if a general aggregate limit is used, then the general aggregate limit shall be twice the occurrence limit.

$1,000,000. Said policy shall include coverage for owned, non-owned, leased, hired cars and any automobile.
(d) Professional Liability. Professional liability insurance appropriate to Contractor’s profession. This coverage may be written on a “claims made” basis, and must include coverage for contractual liability. The professional liability insurance required by this Agreement must be endorsed to be applicable to claims based upon, arising out of or related to services performed under this Agreement. The insurance must be maintained for at least five (5) consecutive years following the completion of Contractor’s services or the termination of this Agreement. During this additional 5-year period, Contractor shall annually and upon request of City submit written evidence of this continuous coverage. (e) Subcontractors.

5.2 General Insurance Requirements.

All of the above policies of insurance shall be primary insurance and shall name City, its elected and appointed officers, employees and agents as additional insureds and any insurance maintained by City or its officers, employees or agents may apply in excess of, and not contribute with Contractor’s insurance. The insurer is deemed hereof to waive all rights of subrogation and contribution it may have against City, its officers, employees and agents and their respective insurers. Moreover, the insurance policy must specify that where the primary insured does not satisfy the self-insured retention, any additional insured may satisfy the self-insured retention.

All of said policies of insurance shall provide that said insurance may not be amended or cancelled by the insurer or any Party hereto without providing thirty (30) days prior written notice by certified mail return receipt requested to City. In the event any of said policies of insurance are cancelled, Contractor shall, prior to the cancellation date, submit new evidence of insurance in conformance with Section 5.1 to the Contract Officer.

No work or services under this Agreement shall commence until Contractor has provided City with Certificates of Insurance, additional insured endorsement forms or appropriate insurance binders evidencing the above insurance coverages and said Certificates of Insurance or binders are approved by City. City reserves the right to inspect complete, certified copies of and endorsements to all required insurance policies at any time. Any failure to comply with the reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches or warranties shall not affect coverage provided to City.

Contractor’s Initials
City, its respective elected and appointed officers, directors, officials, employees, agents and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds as respects: liability arising out of activities Contractor performs; products and completed operations of Contractor; premises owned, occupied or used by Contractor; or any automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by Contractor. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City, and their respective elected and appointed officers, officials, employees or volunteers. Contractor’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At the option of City, either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects City or its respective elected or appointed officers, officials, employees and volunteers or Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, defense expenses and claims. Contractor agrees that the requirement to provide insurance shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which Contractor may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property resulting from Contractor’s activities or the activities of any person or persons for which Contractor is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit Contractor’s indemnification liabilities as provided in Section 5.3.

In the event Contractor subcontracts any portion of the work in compliance with Section

4.5 of this Agreement, the contract between Contractor and such subcontractor shall require the subcontractor to maintain the same policies of insurance that Contractor is required to maintain pursuant to Section 5.1, and such certificates and endorsements shall be provided to City.

5.3 Indemnification.

To the full extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless City, its officers, employees and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities whether actual or threatened (herein “claims or liabilities”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or entity arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of the work, operations or activities provided herein of

Page 104 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -10-
Contractor, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, or invitees, or any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable (“indemnitors”), or arising from Contractor’s or indemnitors’ reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Contractor’s or indemnitors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, and in connection therewith:
(a) Contractor will defend any action or actions filed in connection with any of said claims or liabilities and will pay all costs and expenses, including legal costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection therewith;
(b) Contractor will promptly pay any judgment rendered against City, its officers, agents or employees for any such claims or liabilities arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform such work, operations or activities of Contractor hereunder; and Contractor agrees to save and hold City, its officers, agents, and employees harmless therefrom;
(c) In the event City, its officers, agents or employees is made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against Contractor for such damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of or failure to perform the work, operation or activities of Contractor hereunder, Contractor agrees to pay to City, its officers, agents or employees, any and all costs and expenses incurred by City, its officers, agents or employees in such action or proceeding, including but not limited to, legal costs and attorneys’ fees.

Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify City hereunder therefore, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof. This indemnification includes claims or liabilities arising from any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Contractor in the performance of professional services hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professional. The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Contractor and shall survive termination of this Agreement.

5.4 Sufficiency of Insurer.

Insurance required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated “A” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VII or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Risk Manager of the City (“Risk Manager”) due to unique circumstances. If this Agreement continues for more than three (3) years duration, or in the event the risk manager determines that the work or services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to City, Contractor agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the Risk Manager.

ARTICLE 6. RECORDS, REPORTS, AND RELEASE OF INFORMATION

6.1 Records.

Contractor shall keep, and require subcontractors to keep, such ledgers, books of accounts, invoices, vouchers, canceled checks, reports, studies or other documents relating to the disbursements charged to City and services performed hereunder (the “books and records”), as shall be necessary to perform the services required by this Agreement and enable the Contract Officer to evaluate the performance of such services. Any and all such documents shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be complete and detailed.

In the event of dissolution of Contractor’s business, custody of the books and records may be given to City, and access shall be provided by Contractor’s successor in interest. Notwithstanding the above, Contractor shall fully cooperate with City in providing access to the books and records if a public records request is made and disclosure is required by law including but not limited to the California Public Records Act.

6.2 Reports.

Contractor shall periodically prepare and submit to the Contract Officer such reports concerning the performance of the services required by this Agreement as the Contract Officer shall require. Contractor hereby acknowledges that City is greatly concerned about the cost of work and services to be performed pursuant to this Agreement. For this reason, Contractor agrees that if Contractor becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or will materially increase or decrease the cost of the work or services contemplated herein or, if Contractor is providing design services, the cost of the project being designed, Contractor shall promptly notify the Contract Officer of said fact, circumstance, technique or event and the estimated increased or decreased cost related thereto and, if Contractor is providing design services, the estimated increased or decreased cost estimate for the project being designed.

6.3 Ownership of Documents.

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

Page 106 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -12-
City of any documents or materials prepared by them, and in the event Contractor fails to secure such assignment, Contractor shall indemnify City for all damages resulting therefrom. Moreover, Contractor with respect to any documents and materials that may qualify as “works made for hire” as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101, such documents and materials are hereby deemed “works made for hire” for City.

6.4 Confidentiality and Release of Information.
(a) All information gained or work product produced by Contractor in performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential, unless such information is in the public domain or already known to Contractor. Contractor shall not release or disclose any such information or work product to persons or entities other than City without prior written authorization from the Contract Officer.
(b) Contractor, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, shall not, without prior written authorization from the Contract Officer or unless requested by the City Attorney, voluntarily provide documents, declarations, letters of support, testimony at depositions, response to interrogatories or other information concerning the work performed under this Agreement. Response to a subpoena or court order shall not be considered “voluntary” provided Contractor gives City notice of such court order or subpoena. (c) If Contractor, or any officer, employee, agent or subcontractor of Contractor, provides any information or work product in violation of this Agreement, then City shall have the right to reimbursement and indemnity from Contractor for any damages, costs and fees, including attorney’s fees, caused by or incurred as a result of Contractor’s conduct. (d) Contractor shall promptly notify City should Contractor, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors be served with any summons, complaint, subpoena, notice of deposition, request for documents, interrogatories, request for admissions or other discovery request, court order or subpoena from any party regarding this Agreement and the work performed there under. City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Contractor or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding. Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. However, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.

ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION

7.1 California Law.

This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California.

Page 107 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -13-

7.2 Disputes; Default.

In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of City to give notice of Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.

7.4 Waiver.

Waiver by any Party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any Party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.

Acceptance by City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.

Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or

Page 108 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -14-
different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.

7.6 Legal Action.

In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Contractor shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.

7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause. City reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to Contractor, except that where termination is due to the fault of Contractor, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, Contractor reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as Contractor may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where Contractor has initiated termination, Contractor shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event Contractor has initiated termination, Contractor shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating Party need not provide the non-terminating Party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.8 Termination for Default of Contractor.

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

7.9 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either Party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any

Page 109 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -15-
appeal, and in addition a Party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

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

8.2 Conflict of Interest.

Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Contractor’s performance of services under this Agreement. Contractor further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent or subcontractor without the express written consent of the Contract Officer. Contractor agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of City in the performance of this Agreement.

No officer or employee of City shall have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement nor shall any such officer or employee participate in any decision relating to the Agreement which affects her/his financial interest or the financial interest of any corporation, partnership or association in which (s)he is, directly or indirectly, interested, in violation of any State statute or regulation. Contractor warrants that it has not paid or given and will not pay or give any third party any money or other consideration for obtaining this Agreement.

8.3 Covenant Against Discrimination.

Contractor covenants that, by and for itself, its heirs, executors, assigns, and all persons claiming under or through them, that there shall be no discrimination against or segregation of, any person or group of persons on account of race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry or other protected class in the performance of this Agreement. Contractor shall take affirmative action to insure that applicants are employed and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, creed, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, ancestry or other protected class.

8.4 Unauthorized Aliens.

Contractor hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1101, et seq., as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Contractor so employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of work and/or services covered by this Agreement,

Page 110 of 601 ends

01005.0001/991788.1 -16-
and should any liability or sanctions be imposed against City for such use of unauthorized aliens, Contractor hereby agrees to and shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with any and all costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by City.

Background and Analysis:

The Irwindale Senior Center is currently using a 2004 Ford Braun Transporter 8 Passenger - ADA Van, which is over 20 years old. This van is used to transport residents to and from doctor’s appointments, to get prescriptions, groceries, and individuals who can’t access the Irwindale Senior Center bus on field trips. This van keeps breaking down and the parts are becoming obsolete, which makes the repairs and maintenance very costly. Staff is requesting to replace the 2004 Ford Braun Transporter 8 Passenger/ADA Van with a 2024 Ford Transit Passenger Wagon (U5X) T-350 HD 148” EL High Roof XL DRW AWD, with a Mobility Works Wheelchair Uplift (ADA Van).

Irwindale Municipal Code Section 3.44.080 (E) states that the city council can dispense with bidding when cooperative purchasing, which provides an advantage of large-scale buying, may be obtained.

Due to the purchasing power of a large entity, such as Sourcewell, local governments receive substantial discounts on purchases that apply to these contracts. The selection of National Auto Fleet Group was made based on the quotes provided to staff and the award of contract 091521-NAF from Sourcewell on November 16, 2021, with an expiration date of November 8, 2025. For these reasons, waiving the formal bidding process is in the best interest of the city.

Upon approval by the City Council, a standard purchase agreement and purchase order will be prepared by the City’s Purchasing Office and signed by the City Manager in order to complete the purchase of this vehicle.

The existing vehicles will be placed on the City’s Surplus List, which will be presented to city council for approval upon disposition at another date per the City’s Property Transfer/Disposition of Surplus Equipment procedures.

Fiscal Impact:

The final cost for the purchase of this ADA van is $94,989. Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Adopted Budget includes $86,000 for this purchase utilizing ARPA Funds. The remaining $8,989 will be funded using the available current year's General Fund budget.

Background and Analysis:

Clarion/Trammel Crow, dba LIT Reliance II, LLP ("LIT"), is the current owner of the ±92-acre former mining site. The Reliance II Landfill site was previously owned by Calmat Co., dba Vulcan Materials

Page 152 of 601 ends

Company, Western Division. The site is now named the Irwindale Business Park North. The property On August 9, 2017, the City Council approved a Reimbursement Agreement between the City and Vulcan Materials Company that included reimbursement for costs incurred by the City related to development, related agreements, and consultant and attorney fees. Vulcan partnered with the Trammel Crow Company to construct a business park on the site. On November 8, 2017, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2017-88-2896 for the Reliance II Specific Plan which was adopted via the Initiative process pursuant to Elections Code Section 9214(a). The site is subject to the development standards and processes in the Reliance II Specific Plan. On March 15, 2021, Vulcan conveyed the project site to LIT.

On October 12, 2022, the City and LIT entered into a reimbursement agreement, for purposes of processing applications and plans submitted by LIT for development in accordance with the Reliance II Specific Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the Reimbursement Agreement, LIT is required to be responsible for all direct and indirect City costs related to the Improvements and the Approvals for the Project.

Currently, both the owner and the developer have requested the creation of a Community Facilities District (CFD) to fund the public improvements associated with their land development project. In order to move forward with the creation of CFD, the City will be required to solicit the services of qualified consulting firms. Staff is recommending an Agreement with Willdan Financial Services.

Because CFD formation was not originally contemplated as part of the reimbursable costs associated with the Project, LIT has agreed to reimburse the City for all direct and indirect City, City Attorney, City staff, and consultant(s) costs related to the formation of a CFD or creation of any other funding mechanism to fund the public improvements associated with the project. The attached Amendment No. 1 to Reimbursement Agreement establishes responsibility of LIT to reimburse the City for all direct and indirect costs associated with the CFD or any other funding mechanism established.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact. LIT will reimburse the City for all costs incurred.

Background and Analysis:

BACKGROUND
The City has two Assessment Districts (ADs) to cover the costs of certain maintenance and improvements. Initially, in 2001/2002, a Sewer and Street Lighting Maintenance District was created for

Page 159 of 601 ends

the 116-acre Irwindale Business Center to fund costs associated with street lighting and sewer maintenance of the said area in the City.

Although the creation and the management of ADs have generally been successful, they do not offer the flexibility needed to fund improvements as the property moves towards ultimate build-out. This is due to the fact that the City does not have the financial capacity to subsidize maintenance costs associated with future development, such as street maintenance, public parks, or other improvements within the City’s right of-way. However, Community Facilities Districts (CFDs) offer a similar methodology to taxing parcels, while allowing for a greater range of authorized improvements and services as the City enters into new Development Agreements.

Currently, the developer for the Reliance II land development project, Clarion/Trammell Crow Company, dba LIT, has requested the creation of a CFD to fund the public improvements associated with their land development project - Reliance II. The creation of a CFD is proposed by the Developer.

DISCUSSION
A CFD is a special tax district provided for in State Law that funds public improvements and ongoing services within an identified area. The Mello-Roos Community Facilities District Act of 1982 authorized local governments to create CFDs for the purpose of selling tax-exempt bonds to fund public improvements and collect revenues to pay for public improvements. Also authorized is the collection of revenue to fund services and maintenance associated with the new development (a CFD utilizing Government Code 53311-53368.3 for maintenance of facilities and services). Requirements for creating a CFD include several procedural actions by the City Council and affected property owners, such as an application, petition, Resolution of Intention including Rate and Method of Apportionment and Boundary Map, Resolution of Formation, property owner election, Public Hearing, and recordation of Notice of Special Tax. Prior to the formation of a CFD, it must be approved by a two-thirds majority of the qualified voters within the proposed district boundaries. As a general practice when forming a new funding mechanism associated with residential development that relies on a property assessment, the election regarding the imposition of an assessment is held before the property is subdivided, and lots are sold to individual homeowners. The additional applicable assessment rate is therefore disclosed to prospective owners by the developer/builder.

Although the City will seek City Council concurrence on the maintenance of improvements or services, the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Government Code 53311 et. seq.) can fund 100% of the cost of the following capital improvements:
• Street improvements
• Water, Sewer, Storm Drain improvements
• Parks, Libraries, Schools and other Public buildings
• Development Impact Fees for any of the above
Additionally, a CFD Special Tax can fund 100% of the maintenance cost of the following improvements and services:
• Police protection services
• Fire protection and suppression services
• Ambulance and paramedic services
• Recreation programs
• Libraries

Page 160 of 601 ends

• Schools
• Parks, parkways and open space maintenance
• Flood and storm protection services
• Street maintenance
In order to move forward with the creation of this CFD, the City will be required to solicit the services of qualified consulting firms. Staff is recommending an Agreement with Willdan Financial Services.

Willdan Financial Services (Willdan) has been providing public agencies with a comprehensive approach to special district consulting since their inception in 1988. The cost to form a CFD is approximately $45,000 to $60,000, depending on the size and complexity of the CFD. For the Reliance II project, Willdan has proposed a cost of $47,500 for cost engineering and CFD formation services.

The scope-of-work within the attached proposal outlines the tasks necessary for the preparation of the budget and costs associated with the maintenance of the improvements, special tax analysis, and preparation of required documents, including the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax (RMA) and CFD Report, and the completion of the procedural tasks necessary to execute the formation of the CFD.

All City incurred fees will be paid by the developer through a deposit collected by the City prior to initiating the development of the CFD, pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to the Project Reimbursement Agreement with LIT Reliance II, which is submitted to the City Council for separate consideration.

Irwindale Municipal Code (IMC) 3.44.020 Definition of “Services” exempts professional or other contractual services for which the procedure for procurement is specifically provided by law or approved city procedures or are in their nature unique and not subject to competition. The City has adopted a Purchasing Policy, which sets forth the procurement process for Professional Services. City staff have complied with Irwindale Purchasing Policy Section 5 Professional Consultant Selection requirements such that the contract is exempt from the centralized purchasing requirements of IMC Chapter 3.44, per IMC sections 3.44.060 and 3.44.080(D).

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact to the City. All fees will be paid by the Developer, Clarion/Trammel Crow, dba LIT.
