Honorable Chair and Members of the Housing Authority Board From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager / Executive Director Issue: Second Reading of Ordinance No. 820 – Adopting the Budget for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 City Manager's Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council and Housing Authority Board convene concurrently to conduct the duly noticed public hearing and adopt Ordinance No. 820 entitled: “AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE ADOPTING THE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027,” reading by title only and waiving further reading thereof.

Reviewed by:

Background and Analysis:

On Wednesday, June 10, 2026, the City Council and Housing Authority Board held a duly noticed Public Hearing to conduct the First Reading of Ordinance No. 820 for adoption of the FY 2026-2027 Budget.

Page 12 of 266 ends

The City Council was provided with a verbal report on the FY 2026-2027 Revenue and Expenditure Budgets proposed for adoption. This report included a summary of the Budget Workshop session held on May 21, 2026, during which the City Council reviewed and approved several new budget requests related to personnel, operating and capital project budgets.

Upon the conclusion of the verbal report, the City Council opened the Public Hearing to allow for comments regarding the FY 2026-2027 Budget from both the public and council members.

Summary of Items Discussed:

Capital Improvement Program
An allocation of $173,113 of the Special Revenue Fund (“SRF”), which consisted of $87,893 in the Gas Tax fund, $32, 777 in the Proposition C fund, $27,860 in Measure M fund, and $24,583 in Measure R fund was allocated to the Refresh Citywide Arterial/Street Striping & Pavement Marking (CIP Project No. 8362) that was approved by the City Council during the FY 2025-2026 budget adoption.

Senior Center
At the Budget Workshop, the City Council asked staff to obtain additional information on Hurst Ranch as a possible venue site for hosting the Christmas Party Dance special event and provide a thorough report at the first budget public hearing meeting held in June. When the item was called to order, staff provided the community with a detailed presentation, and when the hearing was declared open, residents were given an opportunity to offer testimony on this matter. Following a thoughtful review, the City Council voted to continue holding the event at its previous location, the Irwindale Community Center.

Recreation
At the Budget Workshop, a request was made to acquire risers for Kidzone and/or Tots to use during their performances at a cost of $10,000. After deliberating the options, the City Council voted not to approve funding for this item.

Administrative Services
On June 10, 2026, the City Council approved a one-year service agreement between the City and the Irwindale Chamber of Commerce (“Chamber”) for $30,000. At this meeting, the President & CEO of the Chamber, Ms. Lily Phan, provided the City Council with a report and asked for additional funding. After evaluating the details, the City Council voted to increase the FY 2026-2027 budget by an additional $10,000.
————————————
Ordinance No. 820 includes Exhibit A, which lists the final revenue and expenditure budgets for all funds of the City and its agencies to be adopted for FY 2026-2027. These totals include all changes

Page 13 of 266 ends

discussed and approved by the City Council during the Budget Workshop session.

The tables below list the final FY 2026-2027 Budget Summaries for the City’s two primary funds, the General Fund and Mining Impact Fund:

Irwindale Municipal Code (IMC) Section 901 requires the City Council to hold a public hearing on the adoption of the budget. Notice of this public hearing, which is set for June 24, 2026, at 6:00 pm, to conduct a second reading and adopt the FY 2026-2027 budget, was published in the local newspaper as well as a copy being posted at Irwindale: City Hall, Library, Post Office, and Social Media platforms on June 11th, 2026; as appropriate to give complete and adequate notice thereof, to residents of the City.

Fiscal Impact:

Adoption of Ordinance No. 820 will approve the FY 2026–2027 Budgets listed in Exhibit A for all City funds, the Housing Authority and Reclamation Authority. Note, the Boards of the Housing Authority and Reclamation Authority have separately adopted the FY 2026–2027 budgets by resolutions at their respective meetings on June 10, 2026.

The $10,000 interdepartmental budget transfer that was taken from Recreation was added to Administrative Services as a budget-neutral reallocation. The Budget Summary for the General Fund still shows a projected surplus of $174,463 for its Operating Budget and One-Time Items.

The General Fund Reserve balance is currently projected to be $61.1 million at the end of FY 2025- 2026. Adoption of the proposed FY 2026-2027 Budget will increase the fund balance by a $174,463 surplus, resulting in a projected General Fund Reserve balance of approximately $61.3 million as of June 30, 2027.

RETAIL CORRIDOR STUDY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIC PLAN OF

City Attorney Guerra noted that an analysis has been conducted since certain councilmembers own residential properties within 500 feet of the Arrow Highway corridor and explained how it was determined that all councilmembers may participate in discussing this item.

Assistant to the City Manager Espino presented the staff report.

Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz noted that the Council has discussed this matter on numerous occasions throughout the years where reports are prepared and ultimately shelved with no action having been taken and stated that he would want to avoid that occurring again. He also discussed his

Page 25 of 266 ends

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 22, 2026
REGULAR MEETING PAGE 5
reservations about working with RSG again, recommended hiring a different firm, and suggested completing another market study.

Assistant to the City Manager Espino noted that RSG and Green & Associates were rated the highest by the interview panel as being the most capable of delivering the results that align with the wishes of the Council.

Councilmember Breceda noted that, although the Council has a vision for certain businesses along the corridor, these do not always materialize since Irwindale has a small population. He also stated his belief that RSG has done a good job in the past and would not mind working with them again.

Councilmember Burrola stated that retail businesses may decide to move to Irwindale depending on the surrounding buildings and noted that RSG has years of experience with Irwindale and that it would take another firm years to acquire this same level of knowledge.

Mayor Ortiz stated that he also has reservations about hiring RSG, though at this stage, it may be in the City’s best interest to proceed with them. He then asked City Manager Miranda for his opinion, to which he stated that staff have done an exceptional job going through the vetting process for potential firms and felt that RSG and Gruen performed phenomenally when discussing how best to implement the City’s vision and what it would take to draw more commercial and retail development to the City. He also noted that the firm’s principal Jim Simon would take the lead on the project and stated he is confident in staff’s vetting of the firm and its capability of delivering on the Council’s vision.

Resolution No. 2026-31-3842, entitled: “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE

CITY OF IRWINDALE APPROVING A CONTRACT AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH RSG, INC. AND GRUEN ASSOCIATES COMPANIES

TO CONDUCT A RETAIL CORRIDOR STUDY OF ARROW HIGHWAY, AND APPROPRIATING $87,110 FROM THE GENERAL FUND RESERVES,” was adopted on the motion of Councilmember Breceda, seconded by Councilmember Garcia, and unanimously approved.

ITEM NO. 21C

VERBAL UPDATE ON DUST MITIGATION MEASURES AT UNITED ROCK PRODUCTS PIT #2
Director Chan presented the update.

Councilmember Burrola noted that he has complained about dust issues for years and that, though the measures taken to mitigate the problem have helped, it usually devolves into a bigger problem than before. He also requested that misters be used at the site before the trucks head onto the street.

Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz added that the street sweepers sometimes do not use water while sweeping and suggested that the operators take the concern seriously and that city staff must enforce the requirements of the agreements with the mining companies.

Councilmember Breceda agreed with Councilmember Burrola and said that, on occasions, the street sweeper uses too much water while sweeping and creating mud. He agreed that the dust should be controlled at the mining company property, prior to heading onto the street.

REGULAR MEETING PAGE 6
Mayor Ortiz concurred and noted that complaints have been received from Irwindale residents as well as from residents of surrounding cities. He agreed that the City should enforce agreement requirements, to which Director Chan advised that he would follow up with the mining operator to ensure they fulfill their requirements.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
ITEM NO. 22A

PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVAL OF AN ENERGY SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH SYSERCO ENERGY SOLUTIONS, INC. FOR CITY FACILITIES ENERGY EFFICIENCY

IMPROVEMENTS
City Manager Miranda presented the report and recommendation.

Councilmember Garcia asked when a payment schedule and a work schedule would be finalized for this project, to which City Manager Miranda advised that staff are currently working on these, which is why staff are proposing to continue this matter to the May 13 meeting.

At 7:29 p.m., Mayor Ortiz opened the public hearing.

There being no speakers, Mayor Ortiz closed the public hearing at 7:29 p.m.

As requested by Councilmember Burrola, Maintenance Worker Gary Strobehn explained that there are two meters that service both the Police Department and City Hall, with one handling loads from computers and related equipment and the second handling HVAC systems. He then discussed Syserco’s service design.

Councilmember Burrola asked about the condition of the City Hall roof, to which Mr. Strobehn advised that staff is performing tests on the roof to determine its stability and sustainability for the possible addition of panels. Mr. Strobehn recommended potentially installing a new roof before adding solar panels to have warranties for both items.

Wesley with Syserco suggested allowing Syserco to perform the roof work to avoid having the City go through the RFP process to select a contractor to do the work and to avoid losing credits for the rooftop solar.

Responding to an additional question from Councilmember Burrola, Wesley indicated that the roof work was not included in the original project and, as such, would cost more, though it would be eligible for ITC credits. He added that the City would have until July 4 to begin 5% of the construction for the project, which would allow the City to receive credits.

A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Ambriz, seconded by Councilmember Breceda, to continue the public hearing to the meeting of May 13, 2026. The motion was unanimously approved.

From: Julian A. Miranda, City Manager
Issue: Adoption of Resolution No. 2026-53-3864 related to City Commissions City Manager's Recommendation:

Adopt Resolution No. 2026-53-3864 entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF IRWINDALE, CALIFORNIA, RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 2020-60-3220 AND ESTABLISHING THE PROCESS FOR THE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION OF MEMBERS OF BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS" reading by title only and waiving further reading thereof.

On January 24, 2007, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2007-01-2187, establishing a process for the recruitment and selection of members of City boards and commissions and for filling expiring terms

Page 33 of 266 ends

in accordance with state law.

On August 12, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2020-60-3220, amending Resolution No. 2007-01-2187 to permit the submission of late applications for appointment to City boards and commissions. The amendment provided that applications submitted up to one week prior to the City Council meeting at which appointments were to be made could be considered at the City Council’s sole and absolute discretion.

Staff has found that maintaining both an advertised application deadline and a separate late application deadline has created unnecessary complexity and potential confusion for applicants. In addition, board and commission vacancies are publicly noticed in accordance with the Maddy Act, and recruitment periods are typically established well in advance of the appointment date, providing applicants with sufficient opportunity to apply for consideration.

Accordingly, staff is recommending that Resolution No. 2020-60-3220 be rescinded and replaced with a revised resolution establishing a single application deadline of one week prior to the City Council meeting at which appointments will be made. Establishing a single deadline will provide clarity to applicants, streamline the recruitment process, and ensure adequate time for staff to prepare application materials for City Council consideration.

Background and Analysis:

Article VIII, Section 803 of the City Charter authorizes the City Council to establish, by resolution, a classification plan, salaries, and other forms of compensation for all City employees. Section

2.12.010 of the Irwindale Municipal Code requires that the offices and positions in City employment be fixed and established by resolution of the City Council.

Classification Resolution No. 2026-34-3845
This resolution approves updates to select job titles within the City’s classification plan to better align with current industry standards and improve clarity and consistency across classifications. The proposed changes are administrative in nature and do not modify compensation or the scope of duties assigned to the positions.

The following job title updates are proposed:
• Library Page to Library Aide I (Part-Time)
• Senior Library Page to Library Aide II (Part-Time)
• Library Aide to Library Associate (Full-Time)
In compliance with the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (Government Code § 3500 et seq.), the City has met and conferred with the Irwindale City Employees Association (ICEA) regarding the job title change for the represented position of Library Aide.

Part-Time Benefits Resolution No. 2026-35-3846
The current Unrepresented Part-Time Employee Benefits Resolution outlines benefits for unrepresented permanent part-time and nonpermanent part-time employees. Following the City Council’s elimination of permanent part-time classifications on April 22, 2026, through the adoption of Resolution No. 2026-28-3839, the proposed resolution removes benefit provisions related to those classifications.

Unclassified Management Resolution No. 2026-36-3847

Compensation Resolution No. 2026-37-3848
The City’s Compensation Resolution is updated periodically to reflect personnel and compensation adjustments. It establishes the authorized number of positions, job classifications, and compensation levels for all City employees. It was most recently updated on April 22, 2026, through the City Council's adoption of Resolution No. 2026-28-3839.

The proposed resolution includes:
• A 3.5% COLA for all full-time employees, effective the first payroll period on or after July 1, 2026, consistent with approved Memoranda of Understanding between the City and its bargaining units (ICEA, IMEA, IPOA), as well as Resolution No. 2026-36-3874, which is concurrently being considered.
• A 3.5% COLA for all part-time employees.

Additionally, the resolution reflects the following personnel changes approved in the FY 2026–27 Budget:

1. The City reserves the right to place Employee on paid administrative leave for all or a portion of the thirty (30) day notice period provided under this Section 13.02 (A).

2. Employee may request to appear before the City Council prior to the effective date of the termination to challenge the reasons for the termination or to raise mitigating circumstances regarding the termination but in such event would waive any right to severance pay as provided in this Section 13.02 (A).

B. Resignation
Should a sworn Affected Employee resign or otherwise initiate termination of his or her employment with the City, then the City shall have no obligation to pay the severance provided for above.

C. Termination for Cause
The City may terminate a sworn Affected Employee for cause at any time by providing the employee with five (5) business days’ written notice of the termination for cause and the facts and grounds constituting such cause. The term “cause” shall be defined the same as in Section 13.01(C) above. For any of the conduct described in this Section constituting cause for termination, the City may, in its discretion, place Employee on paid or unpaid administrative leave until resolution. If the City terminates a sworn Affected Employee for cause, the City shall have no obligation to pay severance. In order to comply with the requirements of California Government Code section 3304(c), a termination by the City Manager of a sworn Affected Employee for cause shall be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

1. Within five (5) days of receipt of written notice under this Section, a sworn

Page 74 of 266 ends
Page 20 of 21 ends

Affected Employee may submit a request in writing to the City Manager for an administrative appeal. Such appeal shall not prohibit or otherwise delay the termination of a sworn Affected Employee prior to the administrative appeal.

Failure to timely file such a request shall be deemed to be a waiver of the right to do so.

2. Upon a sworn Affected Employee’s written appeal request, the City Manager shall appoint an independent hearing officer to conduct an administrative hearing and issue an advisory decision which shall then be reviewed and considered and either adopted, modified or rejected by City Council. Both the sworn Affected Employee and the City and their respective representatives, if any, shall make reasonable efforts to set an administrative appeal hearing date within thirty (30) days from the City Manager’s receipt of the written appeal request. Pursuant to Government Code section 3304(c) and for purposes of this subdivision, the removal of a sworn Affected Employee for the purpose of implementing the goals or policies, or both, of the City, for reasons including, but not limited to, incompatibility of management styles or as a result of a change in administration, shall be sufficient to constitute "reason or reasons" for the sworn Affected Employee’s termination in addition to those reasons constituting cause for termination.

3. At the administrative appeal hearing, the independent hearing officer shall be presented with both the information and documents on which the City based its decision to terminate as well as any information and documents on which the City based its decision to terminate for cause as well as any information and documentation that the sworn Affected Employee chooses to submit to challenge the City’s information and documents to raise mitigating circumstances for consideration by the independent hearing officer.

4. Within thirty (30) days of completing the hearing, the independent hearing officer shall issue an advisory decision in writing to the City Council determining whether the sworn Affected Employee was properly terminated and whether there was sufficient “cause” to justify not paying severance under the terms of this Resolution unless severance was already tendered. Following City Council’s review and consideration of the advisory decision, the sworn Affected Employee shall be notified in writing as to whether the advisory decision will be upheld, modified or rescinded.

SECTION 13.03 LIMITATION ON SEVERANCE (GOVERNMENT CODE §53260) This Resolution does not create a defined term of employment for any Affected Employee, but in the event this resolution is construed by a court of law to have a fixed term, should such proposed severance payment exceed the amount authorized to be paid under Government Code Section 53260, then the amount paid to an Affected Employee shall be reduced in the amount necessary to comply with such statute. (Government Code section 53260 provides that all contracts of employment with a city must include a provision limiting the maximum cash settlement for the termination of the contract to the monthly salary (excluding benefits) multiplied by the number of months left on the unexpired term, but not more than 18 months if the unexpired term exceeds 18

Page 75 of 266 ends
Page 21 of 21 ends

months. For example, if termination occurs with two (2) months left in the term, severance would be equal to the monthly base salary multiplied by two (2) rather than the six (6) months provided in Section 5.1(b).)

The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are hereby incorporated by this reference.

SECTION 2. Personnel Positions Approved and Ordered Funded.

One (1) represented, classified full-time Janitor position, and one (1) unrepresented, unclassified part-time Library Aide I position are hereby approved and ordered funded.

SECTION 3. Applicability to other Governing Documents.

This Resolution shall repeal, supersede, and replace Resolution No. 2026-28- 3839. This Resolution shall also take the place of all existing resolutions or orders of the City Council as they relate to the subject matter contained herein. However, in no event shall this Resolution rescind, supersede, alter or in any way have an effect on Resolution No. 2026-36-3874, which is being concurrently considered herewith, relating to the compensation and benefits of unclassified, unrepresented management employees, or on any approved or adopted memoranda of understanding.

In the event that any provision of this Resolution is in conflict with the City’s Personnel Rules or other policies, this Resolution shall supersede and govern the City’s policies and practices with regard to unrepresented and/or unaffiliated employees.

SECTION 4. Classified Employees Organized In Bargaining Units Represented By Recognized Employee Organizations.

The Memoranda of Understanding for IMEA, ICEA, and IPOA govern the employment relationship between the City and the employees represented by their respective Recognized Employee Organizations.

Nothing in this resolution shall prohibit any Y-rated employee from receiving a cost of

living adjustment that other employees within the employee’s applicable bargaining group may receive pursuant to an applicable MOU.

Background and Analysis:

As part of the City's Capital Improvement Program, several streets were identified for the refreshment of striping and pavement markings. The Refresh Citywide Arterial Street Striping and Pavement Marking Project includes restriping lane lines and pavement markings, as well as installing raised reflective pavement markers on various arterial streets throughout the City of Irwindale and along the shared boundary between the City of Irwindale and the City of Baldwin Park.

Project locations include Arrow Highway, Live Oak Avenue, Irwindale Avenue, Foothill Boulevard, Rivergrade Road, Los Angeles Street, and Avenida Barbosa. The project is intended to enhance traffic safety and maintain the overall functionality of the City's roadway network.

On April 20 and 27, 2026, a Notice Inviting Bids for the project was advertised in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. The final submission date for bids on the PlanetBids platform was May 12, 2026, at 10:00 am. The City received one (1) bid with the following result:

No. Contractor Base Bid Alternate
Bid Total Bid
1 Superior Pavement Markings,
LLC $190,064 $108,840 $298,904
Staff reviewed the bid proposal and found Superior Pavement Markings, LLC to have a valid California contractor’s license, Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) registration, not barred from bidding on public work contracts, and had good references. Superior Pavement Markings, LLC has successfully completed similar projects on time and within budget for several other agencies, such as Cities of Arcadia, Irvine, Walnut, Rosemead, Covina, and San Dimas.

The Plans and Specifications for this project include base bid and alternate bid segments within the City of Irwindale's jurisdiction, as well as Bid Item 2, located within the City of Baldwin Park's jurisdiction along Live Oak Avenue between Baldwin Park Boulevard and Rivergrade Road.

The bid amount for bid item 2, which is within the City of Baldwin Park’s jurisdiction, is:

Bid Item Description Bid Amount
2 Removals and Re-striping - Live Oak Avenue
(Baldwin Park Blvd to Rivergrade Rd) $20,654
The Contractor and the City of Baldwin Park have agreed that invoicing and payment for Bid Item No. 2 will be handled directly between those two parties. The City of Irwindale will not be responsible for any costs associated with Bid Item No. 2 and will be invoiced only for the actual work performed within the City of Irwindale's jurisdiction.

It is anticipated that the project will have a cost of approximately $37,000 for work related to construction inspections. These services will be provided by one of the city’s consultants under the City’s existing On-Call As Needed Consulting Services.

Page 100 of 266 ends

Fiscal Impact:

The total cost for this project is $365,794.40 ($298,904 (Total Base Bid & Alternate Bid) + $29,890.40 (10% Construction Contingency) + $37,000 (Construction Inspection & QC)).

Funding for this project is included in the FY 2025-2026 adopted budget under the Capital Improvement Program Project No. 8362. This project is using multiple funding sources, including the General Fund, Mining Impact Fund, Gas Tax Fund, Proposition C, Measure R and Measure M. There is sufficient funding available for this project and no additional money is being requested.

The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of the City before the City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
(d) City’s Rights of Enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, the City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by the City will be promptly reimbursed by Contractor or the City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Contractor payments. In the alternative, the City may cancel this Agreement.
(e) Acceptable Insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or that is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VI (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the City’s Risk Manager.

Page 116 of 266 ends

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 16 Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City, nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
(h) Requirements Not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any Party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Contractor maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.
(i) Notice of Cancellation. Contractor agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to the City with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.
(j) Additional Insured Status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that the City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.
(k) Prohibition of Undisclosed Coverage Limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to the City and approved of in writing. (l) Separation of Insureds.

The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions. (m) Pass Through Clause. Contractor agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Project who is brought onto or involved in the Project by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this Section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the Project will be submitted to the City for review. (n) City’s Right to Revise Specifications. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation.
(o) Self-Insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. The City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible.

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 17 (p) Timely Notice of Claims.

5.3 Indemnification.

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

In addition, Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from, any and all claims and liabilities for any infringement of patent rights, copyrights, or trademark on any person or persons in consequence of the use by the Indemnified Parties of articles to be supplied by Contractor under this Agreement, and of which the Contractor is not the patentee or assignee or has not the lawful right to sell the same.

Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify the 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

Page 118 of 266 ends

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 18 act, error or omission, or reckless, or willful misconduct of Contractor in the performance of professional services and work hereunder. The provisions of this Section do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of the 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 the City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professional. The indemnity obligation shall be binding on successors and assigns of Contractor and shall survive termination of this Agreement.

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

5.4 Notification of Third-Party Claims.

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

5.5 Performance and Labor Bonds.

(b) A labor and materials bond in the amount of the Contract Sum of this Agreement, in the form provided by the City Clerk, which secures the payment of all persons furnishing labor and/or materials in connection with the work under this Agreement (“Payment Bond”).

Both the Performance Bond and Payment Bond required under this Section 5.5 shall contain the original notarized signature of an authorized officer of the surety and affixed thereto shall be a certified and current copy of his/her power of attorney. The bonds shall be unconditional and remain in force during the entire term of this Agreement.

5.6 Sufficiency of Insurer or Surety.

Insurance and bonds 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’s 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. In addition, the insurance carrier must be currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or be on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers issued by the State of California. If this Agreement continues for more than three (3) years duration, or in the event the Risk Manager determines that

Page 119 of 266 ends

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 19 the work or services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to the City, the Contractor agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies and the bonds required by Section 5.5 may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the Risk Manager.

5.7 Substitution of Securities.

Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 22300, substitution of eligible equivalent securities for any funds withheld to ensure performance under this Agreement may be permitted at the request and sole expense of the Contractor.

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, certified and accurate copies of payroll records in compliance with all applicable laws, or other documents relating to the disbursements charged to the 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. The Contract Officer shall have full and free access to such books and records at all times during normal business hours of the City, including the right to inspect, copy, audit, and make records and transcripts from such records. Such records shall be maintained for a period of three (3) years following completion of the services hereunder, and the City shall have access to such records in the event any audit is required. In the event of dissolution of Contractor’s business, custody of the books and records may be given to the City, and access shall be provided by Contractor’s successor in interest.

Any use, reuse or assignment of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of uncompleted documents without specific written authorization by the Contractor will be at the 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 an unrestricted right to use the concepts embodied therein. All subcontractors shall provide for assignment to the City of any documents or materials prepared by them, and in the event Contractor fails to secure such assignment, Contractor shall indemnify the 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 the City.

6.4 Confidentiality and Release of Information.
(a) 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.

(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 attorneys’ fees, caused by or incurred as a result of Contractor’s conduct.

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 the City with sufficient opportunity to review, comment, or file appropriate objections to any response to discovery requests provided by Contractor. This right to review any such response, however, does not imply or mean the right by the 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.

7.2 Disputes.
(a) Default; Cure. In the event that Contractor is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Project Manager. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on such invoices only when the default is cured to the satisfaction of the City. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement. (b) Dispute Resolution. To the extent applicable, this Agreement is subject to the provisions of Article 1.5 (commencing at Section 20104) of Division 2, Part 3 of the California Public Contract Code regarding the resolution of public works claims of less than $375,000. Additionally, Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code prescribes a process for negotiation and mediation to resolve disputes on construction claims. Article 1.5 mandates certain procedures for the filing of claims and supporting documentation by the Contractor, for the response to such claims by the City, for a mandatory meet and confer conference upon the request of the Contractor, for mandatory non-binding mediation in the event litigation is commenced, and for mandatory judicial arbitration upon the failure to resolve the dispute through mediation. This Agreement hereby incorporates the provisions of Article 1.5 as though fully set forth herein and the intent of this Section is to implement Sections 20104 et seq. and Section 9204 of the California Public Contract Code with respect to any such claims by Contractor. This Section shall be construed to be consistent with said statutes.

Page 122 of 266 ends

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 22 For purposes of these procedures, the term “claim(s)” means a separate demand by the Contractor, after the City has denied Contractor’s timely and duly made request for payment for extra work and/or a time extension, for: (i) a time extension, (ii) payment of money or damages arising from work done by or on behalf of the Contractor pursuant to this Agreement and payment of which is not otherwise expressly provided for or the Contractor is not otherwise entitled to, or (iii) an amount the payment of which is disputed by the City.

7.3 Retention of Funds.

Contractor hereby authorizes the 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 the City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by the City, and (ii) all amounts for which the 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, the 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 the City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect the 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 the City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.

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

7.6 Legal Action.

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

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 23

7.7 Liquidated Damages.

Because the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum of Five Hundred Dollars and 00/100 Cents ($500.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the services required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit “D”). The City may withhold from any monies payable on account of services performed by the Contractor any accrued liquidated damages. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 4215, Contractor shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay in completion of the Project when such delay was caused by the failure of the public agency or owner of the utility to provide for removal or relocation of utility facilities.

7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.

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

7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor.

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

7.10 Attorneys’ Fees.

If either Party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a Party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorney’s fees. Attorney’s fees shall include attorney’s fees on any appeal, and in addition a Party entitled to attorney’s fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed

Page 124 of 266 ends

PW Agreement – Vendor/Contractor Name (Project Title, Plan No) Council Date 24 to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

7.11 Unfair Business Practices Claims.

In entering into this Agreement, Contractor offers and agrees to assign to the City all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. § 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, (commencing with Section 16700) of Part 2 of Division 7 of the California Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services or materials related to this Agreement. This assignment shall be made and become effective at the time the City renders final payment to the Contractor without further acknowledgment by the Parties.

ARTICLE 8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees.

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

8.2 Conflict of Interest.

Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of its firm, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of the 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 the City in the performance of this Agreement.

No officer or employee of the 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 this Agreement which effects his / her financial interest or the financial interest of any corporation, partnership or association in which he/her is, directly or indirectly, interested, in violation of any State statute or regulation. The 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, 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.

Contractor hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, Title 8 Section 1101 et seq. of the United States Code , as amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein.
