SUBJECT: INTERVIEWS OF APPLICANTS TO SERVE ON THE LA PUENTE
PLANNING COMMISSION AND CONSIDERATION OF APPOINTMENTS TO
FILL TWO VACANT SEATS
BACKGROUND
At the meeting of June 13, 2023, the City Council reappointed Planning Commissioners Gary Dudley and Allen Maes to the Planning Commission, each for a two-year term. Reappointed Commissioners Dudley and Maes joined seated Commissioner Marty Paz, whose term expires in June 2024.
In May 2023, Commissioner Daniel Stowell resigned from his seat on the Planning Commission due to relocating outside the city limits of La Puente. Commissioner Stowell’s seat was set to expire in June of 2024. In addition, there has remained an unfilled “vacant” seat on the Planning Commission as a result of former Commissioner Nadia Mendoza being appointed to the City Council.
DISCUSSION
In response to the above noted two (2) vacancies on the Planning Commission, the City issued a Notice of Vacancies (“NOV”) requesting interested residents to apply for consideration of appointment to the Commission. The City has received completed applications from five (5) residents in response to the NOV (see Attachment “A”). Interviews of the five applicants to be considered to fill the 2 vacant seats will occur during the special meeting of the City Council.
Of the two vacant seats, one seat has a term that will expire in June 2024 (the former seat of Commissioner Stowell) and the other seat has a term that will expire in June 2025 (the former seat of Council Member Mendoza).
All applicants meet the requirements as set forth in the Municipal Code to be considered for appointment. Two positions are available for appointment (a one-year term and a two-year term) and Planning Commissioners are appointed by a majority vote of the City Council.
The five applicants for consideration are listed in the table on the following page. The City Council will conduct separate interviews with each of the applicants.

AGENDA ITEM NO. D-2
To: Mayor and City Council For meeting of: July 25, 2023 From: Bob Lindsey, City Manager
By: Troy Grunklee, CPA, Director of Administrative Services Alex Merkel Medina, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: PRESENTATION OF JUNE 2023 INVESTMENT REPORT
BACKGROUND
This report presents the City’s investment portfolio for the period of June 2023. The attachment provides details of the City’s portfolio. It has been prepared to comply with regulations contained in California Government Code Section 53600 and the Statement of Investment Policy approved by the City Council on May 23, 2023.
The investment objectives of the City of La Puente are first, to provide safety of principal to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio, second, to provide sufficient liquidity to meet all operating requirements, and third, to earn a commensurate rate of return consistent with the constraints imposed by the safety and liquidity objectives.
The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments for all funds under its direct control.
Interest earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated to the various funds based on the respective fund’s average quarterly cash balance. It is common for governments to pool the cash and investments of various funds to improve investment performance. By pooling funds, cities are able to benefit from economies of scale, diversification, liquidity and ease of administration.
DISCUSSION
The Investment Report for June 2023 has been provided as an attachment for your review. The following table summarizes the City’s investment activity for the period:

AGENDA REPORT
June 2023 Investment Report
For Meeting of July 25, 2023
FISCAL IMPACT
Idle cash invested in certificates of deposit, government securities, and corporate bonds typically return higher yields than LAIF (Local Agency Investment Fund). This maximizes returns without assuming substantial additional risk.
SUMMARY
In summary, the City has conservatively placed its investment portfolio in LAIF, federal agency securities, corporate bonds, and certificates of deposit. The portfolio complies with the Statement of Investment Policy and the City has the ability to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months.

By: Troy O. Grunklee, CPA, Director of Administrative Services Alex Merkel Medina, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: PRESENTATION OF JUNE 2023 REQUISITION SUMMARY REPORT
BACKGROUND
On April 24, 2018, the City Council adopted several ordinances and accompanying resolutions amending the City’s purchasing procedures to streamline and make the procurement process more efficient. One of the amendments to the purchasing procedures was a provision setting a $5,000 spending limit for Department Heads and a separate provision increasing the City Manager’s spending limit to $20,000 for professional services, supplies and equipment. In order to document purchases approved by the City Manager and/or Department Heads the City Council directed that a monthly report be prepared and filed with the City Council. This action is to receive and file the requisition summary report for the month of June 2023.
DISCUSSION
City staff initiated thirty-one (31) requisitions during the month totaling $387,892.05.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this report.

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO ELECNOR BELCO ELECTRIC, INC. FOR THE PEDESTRIAN HYBRID
SIGNAL (HAWK) INSTALLATION ON HACIENDA BOULEVARD AT
PRICHARD STREET IN THE AMOUNT OF $247,286
BACKGROUND
In 2015, the City installed a new high-visibility crosswalk on Hacienda Boulevard at Prichard Street to improve pedestrian safety, particularly for students crossing the street on the way to and from La Puente High School. Solar-powered Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFBs) and pedestrian crossing signs mounted on 16-foot tall posts were installed along with intersection bulb-outs constructed as part of the crosswalk improvements.
Since then, La Puente Park has undergone tremendous improvements that now draw large numbers of visitors participating in the youth sports leagues and enjoying the park amenities every weekend. As a result, the City expanded the parking area which serves the Park to include marked on-street parking stalls along Hacienda Boulevard. Due to the increased park activity and pedestrian crossings on Hacienda Boulevard at Prichard Street, staff recommended that the RRFBs be upgraded to a new Pedestrian Hybrid Signal, also known as a “HAWK” signal.
Somewhat similar to the RRFBs, HAWK signals are pedestrian activated traffic signals that allow pedestrians to cross the road safely, operating in a YELLOW–RED–FLASHING RED sequence to alert motorists that pedestrians need to cross the street. The HAWK signals are mounted on mast arms above the crosswalk and are more visible from a distance, than the sidewalk mounted RRFB’s. Thus, the HAWK signals are considered a safety enhancement over the RRFBs.
DISCUSSION
On May 23, 2023, the Council authorized the Pedestrian Hybrid Signal (HAWK) Installation on Hacienda Boulevard at Prichard Street project to be advertised for formal bid. The Engineer’s estimate for construction was $255,000.
City of La Puente
AGENDA REPORT
Agenda Report – Authorization to Award HAWK Installation For Meeting of: July 25, 2023
The Project consists of the removal of the existing RRFB system and installation of a new HAWK signal, including new electrical service and cabinet and related pedestrian signage and pavement markings.
The bid opening was conducted on June 27, 2023. Out of the five contractors that requested the bid documents, the City received just one (1) bid for the project. The bid result is as follows:
Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. $247,286.00
After the process of verifying the contractor’s bid submittal, references were contacted for Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. References confirmed that the contractor’s prior work was completed satisfactorily. Elecnor Belco Electric has been determined to be the lowest responsible bidder for the project.
This project has a 180 calendar days allotment to procure materials. Based on the scope of work to be completed, Project should take approximately thirty (30) working days to complete after the date the contractor is issued the notice to proceed.
FISCAL IMPACT
This project is included in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Capital Improvement Budget in the amount of $305,000.00 with funding from Measure M funds. The bid schedule for construction of this Project totals $247,286. With a 10 percent (10%) project contingency of $24,729, the total construction project budget is $272,015. With the associated cost for contract administration and inspection estimated to be $27,000, the total estimated project cost is $299,015.00.
There is no impact to the City’s General Fund associated with this project.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council: (1) award the contract to Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. in the amount of $247,286; and (2) authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement and approve change orders up to 10% of the original bid amount.

AGENDA ITEM NO. D-5
To: Mayor and City Council For meeting of: July 25, 2023 From: Bob Lindsey, City Manager
By: Alex Bauman, Director of Community Services
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING ACCEPTANCE OF THE $200,000 LOCAL AGING AND DISABILITY ACTION PLANNING (LADAP)
GRANT FUNDS ADMINISTERED BY THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF
AGING (CDA)
BACKGROUND
The California Department of Aging (CDA) awarded nearly $3 million to 15 organizations to plan and develop local age- and disability-friendly action plans. The City of La Puente was one of the organizations selected to receive funding. The local plans funded under the Local Aging & Disability Action Planning (LADAP) grant program aim to improve community livability and address the current, emerging, and future needs of California’s older adults, people with disabilities, and caregivers through cross-sector collaboration and transformational systems change.
CDA’s programs, planning, and partnerships aim to expand culturally relevant and accessible services to older adults, people with disabilities, caregivers, and families, address health and other inequities that can become cumulative with age and combat racism, ageism, ableism, and biases in aging and disability systems of care.
By 2030, 10.8 million Californians will be age 60 or over, representing one quarter of the state’s population. This growth rate is larger than any other age group. Older adults have many essential roles in California’s communities: workers, business owners, volunteers, community leaders, mentors, lifelong learners, neighbors, friends, family members, and more. Each of these roles can provide a vital sense of purpose at any age. However, over two million Californians aged 60 and over are economically insecure, struggling to afford the rising costs of housing, health, and care. Almost 30% of older Californians are considered poor or near poor, and significant economic disparities exist and older Californians are the fastest growing age group experiencing homelessness.
DISCUSSION
Grant recipients will develop local age- and disability-friendly plans that will:
Improve community livability for people of all ages and abilities centered on equity, cultural competency, community engagement, and disability inclusion principles and practices. Combat racism, ageism, ableism, and biases in aging and disability systems of care. Address health and other inequities that can become cumulative with age.
City of La Puente
AGENDA REPORT
Agenda Report – Local Aging and Disability Grant Resolution For Meeting of – July 25, 2023

Communicate a clear vision and strategic priorities for building and sustaining an age and disability-friendly community.
Strengthen the collective capacity of the community to address the current, emerging, and future aging and disability-related needs through cross-sector collaboration, defined as the intentional collaboration between two or more sectors to accomplish community goals and achieve community-level outcomes.
Transform the infrastructure and coordination of services and supports serving older adults, people with disabilities, and professional and family caregivers across sectors. Guide government and non-government programs, services, policy, and funding. Build, enhance, and facilitate shared leadership, partnerships, and collaborations with diverse agencies, groups, and stakeholders to identify and act on shared values, mutual goals, and opportunities.
FISCAL IMPACT
To support the community-wide activities and strategies described above, grant funds allocated through this opportunity are intended to support a community’s cost in planning and developing a Local Plan. Funding may be used to hire a consultant and engage aging, disability, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and community engagement subject matter experts (SMEs) to support the planning and developing a Local Plan. Grant funding must be expended during the grant’s project period.
There are no matching requirements for the awarded grant funds.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve Resolution No. 23-5817 approving the application for grant funds.

To: Mayor and City Council For meeting of: July 25, 2023 From: Bob Lindsey, City Manager
By: Troy O. Grunklee, CPA, Director of Administrative Services Alex Merkel Medina, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: PRESENTATION OF JUNE 2023 BUDGET REPORT
BACKGROUND
The City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Budget and Capital Improvement Program on May 16, 2022. The attached report examines fiscal activity taking place during the month of June 2023 and includes all funds within the operating budget. The report analyzes year-to-date transactions in comparison to budgeted amounts for the entire fiscal year, expressing each category using a percentage-of-completion methodology. It additionally provides comparisons in activity level to the same time period last fiscal year.
DISCUSSION
As of June 30, 2023, one hundred (100) percent of the fiscal year has elapsed.
REVENUES
General Fund revenues year-to-date are 93.4% of budget, a minor decrease from 97.8% at this time last fiscal year. This is primarily attributable to diminished performance in Sales & Use Tax and Measure LP, which each show year to date results of 78.9% of budget. It is important to note that although the fiscal year has concluded from a calendar perspective, transactions pertaining to FY 2022-2023 will continue to be posted to the period for the next sixty (60) days in accordance with governmental accounting standards. As such, the sales tax accounts will record two (2) more monthly remittances each. Staff remains hopeful that increases in retail activity in the final months of FY 2022-2023 will bring these figures into closer alignment with previous expectations.
The other largest General Fund source, Property Tax, remains a strong contributor to the agency’s revenue portfolio with year-to-date collections of $7,501,108 or 102.8% of budget.
Property Tax will also continue to accrue revenue to FY 2022-2023 over the coming months, although in much more modest amounts in comparison to Sales & Use Tax.
City of La Puente
AGENDA REPORT
Monthly Budget Report – June 2023
For Meeting of July 25, 2023
EXPENDITURES
In aggregate of all funds, operating expenditures are 81.6% of budget as opposed to 79.2% on June 30, 2022. This reflects a relatively stable expenditure pattern. In the General Fund, these figures are 92% and 89.4%, respectively, and 67% and 68.6% for the special revenue funds.
Much like revenues, the expenditure accounts will continue to accrue expenses pertinent to the FY 2022-2023 period for the next several months, and fluctuations will be noted. Final financial reporting for FY 2022-2023 will occur after the annual audit and will be presented to the City Council in the form of the agency’s Annual Consolidated Financial Report (ACFR) this upcoming winter.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file this report.

(b) The compensation set forth above in subsection (a) of this section is exclusive of any amounts payable to members of the city council as reimbursement for actual and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of official duties on behalf of the city. Procedures for such reimbursement may be specified by resolution adopted by the city council. (Ord. 767 § 1 (part), 1998)
2.04.120 Rules of decorum for meetings.
(a) Decorum. Meetings of the city council must be conducted in an orderly manner to ensure that the public has an opportunity to be heard and that the council’s deliberative process is not disrupted. The presiding officer of the council, whether the mayor, mayor pro tem or, in their absence, another member so designated by the council, is responsible for maintaining the order and decorum of meetings.
(b) Rules of Decorum. While any meeting of the city council is in session the following rules of order and decorum must be observed:
(1) Persons Addressing the Council. Public oral communications at city council meetings should not be a substitute for addressing any item that can be handled during the city’s normal business hours. The primary purpose of oral communications is to allow citizens the opportunity to formally comment to the city council, as a body, on matters that are within the subject matter jurisdiction of the city council and that cannot be handled during the regular business hours of the city government.
A person wishing to address the council during the period set aside for oral communications must submit a request on a form provided by the city clerk; these requests may be submitted at any time before or during the portion of the meeting that is devoted to oral communications; provided, however, that these requests must be submitted prior to the conclusion of the first speaker’s remarks. Speakers shall be heard by the city council in the order that the request forms are submitted to the city clerk; provided, however, that the city council, by motion, may approve a request by a speaker to be heard at the beginning of oral communications.
Each person who addresses the council must do so in an orderly manner and must not make personal, impertinent, slanderous, or profane remarks to any member of the council, staff, or general public. Any person who makes such remarks, or who utters loud, threatening, personal, or abusive language, or who engages in any other disorderly conduct that disrupts, disturbs, or otherwise impedes the orderly conduct of any council meeting will, at the discretion of the presiding officer or a majority of the council, be barred from further audience before the council during that meeting. (2) Members of the Audience. No person in the audience at a council meeting may engage in disorderly or boisterous conduct, including the utterance of loud, threatening, or abusive language, whistling, stamping of feet or other acts that disturb, disrupt, or otherwise impede the orderly conduct of the council meeting. Any person who behaves in this manner may, at the discretion of the presiding officer or a majority of the council, be barred from further audience before the council during that meeting.
(c) Addressing the Council. No person may address the council without first being recognized by the presiding officer.
The following procedures must be observed by persons addressing the council:
(1) Each person will step up to the podium provided for the use of the public and state his or her name and the organization, if any, that he or she represents.
(2) Any subject that is deemed by the council to be irrelevant may be precluded. (3) With regard to items that are listed on the council agenda, the remarks of the speaker must be confined to the subject that is being discussed.
(4) The remarks of each person must be limited to a combined total of three minutes unless additional time is granted by the presiding officer of the council, in conjunction with oral communication presented by that person to the council and La Puente Successor Agency oral communication.
(5) The council may either increase or decrease the total allotted time set forth in subsection (4) by resolution. (6) All remarks must be addressed to the presiding officer and not to any single member of the council unless in response to a question from that member.
(d) Rules of Debate and Decorum among Councilmembers. The following rules apply to all councilmembers at meetings:
(1) By Councilmembers. While the council is in session, the members must preserve order and decorum, and a member must not, by conversation or otherwise, delay or interrupt the proceedings of the council, nor disturb any member while speaking, nor refuse to obey the orders of the council or its presiding officer, except as otherwise provided in this section.
(2) Getting the Floor—Improper References to be Avoided. Every member desiring to speak must address the chair and, upon recognition by the presiding officer, must confine all remarks to the question under debate. (3) Interruptions. Once recognized, a member must not be interrupted when speaking unless it is to call that member to order, or as otherwise provided in this section. If a member is called to order while speaking, that member must cease speaking until the question of order is determined and, if in order, the member will be permitted to proceed. (4) Appeals. Any ruling of the mayor may be appealed at the request of a councilmember. The mayor must call for a roll call vote to determine whether the council concurs with the ruling. (5) Motion to Reconsider. A motion to reconsider any action taken by the council may be made only on the same day that such action was taken. It may be made immediately during the same session or at a recessed or adjourned session.
The motion must be made by one on the prevailing side, but it may be seconded by any member. It may be made at any time, it has precedence over all other motions, and it is debatable. (6) Precedence of Motions. When a motion is pending before the council, no additional motion may be entertained except:
(A) Motion to Amend. This motion is debatable only as it relates to the amendment. Amendments are voted on first, and the vote on the main motion is last. A motion may be amended more than once with each amendment being voted on separately. There may be only one amending motion on the floor at any one time. A new main motion is in order if the intent of the original motion is changed fundamentally.
(B) Motion to Postpone. A motion to postpone indefinitely is debatable. If this motion is adopted, the principal question is lost. A motion to postpone to a definite time is subject to debate and amendment as it relates to the propriety of the postponement and the time that is set to consider the matter. (C) Motion to Table. This motion is not debatable and not subject to amendment. The purpose of a motion to table is to suspend consideration of an item until such time as it is removed from the table. If a motion to table is adopted, the item will remain tabled through all subsequent meetings of the city council. An item that has been tabled may be removed from the table only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the city council. (7) Effect of Abstention. Unless an abstention from a vote is declared, a councilmember’s silence will be recorded as an affirmative vote. An abstention is not counted as either an affirmative or a negative vote, but it is counted for purposes of a quorum, unless the abstention is due to a conflict of interest. (8) Time Limits on Debate. Discussion by any councilmember who makes a motion will be limited to five minutes of debate at the time of making the motion and an additional five minutes after debate by all other councilmembers has been completed. Each councilmember not making a motion is limited to five minutes’ debate on that motion. The time limits delineated in this subsection may not be divided or allocated so as to permit any councilmember to speak more than once on a particular matter.
(9) Removal of Items from the Consent Calendar. One or more items may be removed from the consent calendar so that those items may be considered individually by the city council, if a motion to remove the item or items is approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the city council. (e) Enforcement of Decorum. The rules of decorum set forth above will be enforced in the following manner:
(1) Warning. The presiding officer may request that a person who is breaching the rules of decorum be orderly and silent. After receiving a warning from the presiding officer, if a person persists in disturbing the meeting, the presiding officer may order that person to leave the council meeting. If that person does not leave, then the presiding officer may order any law enforcement officer who is on duty at the meeting as sergeant-at-arms to remove that person from the council chambers.
(2) Removal. Any law enforcement officer who is serving as sergeant-at-arms at the council meeting must carry out all orders and instructions given by the presiding officer for the purpose of maintaining order and decorum at the council meeting. Upon direction from the presiding officer, it is the duty of the sergeant-at-arms to remove from the council meeting any person who is disturbing the proceedings of the council. (3) Resisting Removal. Any person who resists removal by the sergeant-at-arms may be charged with a violation of this section.
(4) Penalty. Any person who violates any provision of this section will, pursuant to Section1.08.040 of this code, be guilty of a misdemeanor.
(5) Motion to Enforce. If the presiding officer of the council fails to enforce the rules set forth above, any member of the council may move to require such enforcement, and an affirmative vote of a majority of the council will require that action. If the presiding officer of the council fails to carry out the will of a majority of the council, the majority may designate another member of the council to act as presiding officer for the limited purpose of enforcing any rule of this section that it wishes enforced.

(Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.020 Bidding procedures for defined public projects. (a) The city manager may cause public projects of one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) or less to be performed or let to contract by informal procedures as set forth in this chapter and the Act. (b) Except as set forth in Section2.21.020(f), the following limits and procedures apply to contracting for public projects in the city:
(1) Public projects of forty-five thousand dollars ($45,000) or less may be performed by the employees of the city, by force account, by negotiated contract, or by purchase order; (2) Public projects of greater than forty-five thousand dollars ($45,000) but less than one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) may be let to contract through informal procedures as set forth in this chapter and the Act; and (3) Public projects of more than one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000) shall, except as otherwise provided in this chapter or in the Public Contract Code, be let to contract by the formal bidding procedure set forth in this chapter and the Public Contract Code.
(c) The dollar thresholds in this section refer to the city engineer’s written estimate of the cost of any public project. (d) It shall be unlawful to split or separate into smaller work orders or projects any public project for the purpose of evading the provisions of this chapter requiring work to be done by contract after informal or formal competitive bidding. (e) The term “public project” shall have the definition set forth in Public Contracts Code Section 22002. (f) The dollar thresholds set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section shall increase or decrease automatically as necessary to comply with any adjustment mandated by the State Controller pursuant to the authority granted by Public Contract Code Section 22020.
(Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.030 List of contractors.
A list of qualified contractors, identified according to categories of work, shall be developed and maintained in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22034(a) and any criteria promulgated from time to time by the California Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Commission (“Commission”). Such list shall be maintained and updated from time to time by the city manager or the city manager’s designee.
(Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.040 Informal bidding procedure.
The following procedures shall apply to informal bids for public projects:
(a) Notice inviting informal bids.
(1) Required noticing. When a public project is permitted to be let to contract by informal bidding pursuant to this chapter, a notice inviting informal bids shall be mailed and/or emailed to all contractors on the list created pursuant to Section 2.21.030 for the category of work being bid, and to all the construction trade journals specified by the Commission in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22036.
(2) Optional noticing. Notice may be also provided to any additional contractors, publications and/or construction trade journals identified by the city manager or the city manager’s designee. (b) Exception. If the product or service to be procured for a public project is proprietary in nature such that it can be obtained only from a certain contractor or contractors, the notice inviting informal bids may be sent exclusively to such contractor or contractors.
(c) Time of giving notice. All mailing of notices to contractors and construction trade journals pursuant to this Section shall be completed not less than ten calendar days before bids are due. (d) Description of project. The notice inviting informal bids shall describe the project in general terms and how to obtain more detailed information about the project, and state the time and place for the submission of bids. (e) Authority to award contracts. The city manager is authorized to award a contract for a public project pursuant to the process set forth in this Section if the lowest bid received is twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) or less. Contracts valued at more than twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) require City Council approval. (f) Bids exceeding one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000). If all bids received pursuant to the informal process are in excess of one hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($175,000), the City Council may adopt a resolution by a four-fifths vote to award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder at one hundred eighty-seven thousand five hundred dollars ($187,500) or less, if it determines the city’s cost estimate was reasonable. (g) Award of contract. Any contract awarded pursuant to this section shall be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. If two or more bids received are for the same total amount or unit price, quality and service being equal, the approving entity may accept either bid.
(h) No bids. If no bids are received, the project may be performed by city employees by force account, or negotiated contract without further complying with this chapter.
(Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.050 Formal bidding procedures.
For those projects requiring formal bidding under Section2.21.020, the following procedures shall be used:
(a) Notice. A notice shall be published, at least once, fourteen (14) calendar days before the date of opening the bids in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published in the jurisdiction of the city. The notice inviting formal bids shall also be sent electronically if available by either facsimile or email, and mailed to all construction trade journals specified by the Commission in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22036. The notice shall be mailed at least fifteen (15) calendar days before the date of opening the bids. The notice inviting formal bids shall state the time and place for the receiving and opening of sealed bids and distinctly describe the project. In addition to notice required by this section, the city may give such other notice as it deems proper.
(b) Bidder’s security/failure to sign contract. Bidder’s security shall be prescribed in the notice inviting bids in an amount equal to ten (10%) percent of the amount bid. Bidder’s security shall be either a cash deposit with the city, a cashier’s or certified check payable to the city, or a bidder’s bond. Unsuccessful bidders shall be entitled to the return of bid security within sixty (60) days of the date of the award. However, the lowest responsive and responsible bidder shall forfeit all or part of his/her bid security, as may be determined by the city council, upon the bidder’s refusal or failure to execute the contract within ten (10) days after the date of the award of the contract. On the refusal or failure of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder to execute the contract, the city council may award the contract to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder. All bids must be signed by person authorized to bind company to bid terms. (c) Bid opening procedure. Sealed bids shall be submitted to the city clerk’s office and shall be identified as to bidder, project, and “bid” on the envelope. Bids shall be opened by the city clerk’s staff in public at the time and place stated in the notice inviting bids. A written record and tabulation shall be made at that time of all bids received by the deadline. Bids that are received after the submittal deadline shall be marked as “Late” and shall not be opened at the bid opening and shall not be considered for award. Bids shall be open for public inspection in accordance to the California Public Records Act during regular business hours for a period of one year after the bid opening. (d) Award of contracts/minor irregularities. Contracts shall be awarded by the city council to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder whose bid fulfills the purpose intended, according to criteria designated in the solicitation, and provided the award amount is within the unencumbered appropriation for that item. The city council may waive minor bid irregularities. (e) Change orders. A “change order” shall be used to modify the contract documents regarding contract price, schedule of payments, completion date, plans and specifications, and for unit price overruns and under runs, as specified in the contract. Work description and justification must relate to the original project and must be work necessary to achieve original scope of project. After a determination that costs are merited by developments in a specific project, the city manager is authorized to issue change orders up to the contract contingency approved by the city council. (f) Tie bids. If two or more bids received are for the same total amount or unit price, quality and service being equal, and if the public interest will not permit the delay or re-advertising for bids, the city council may accept either bid. (g) Performance/labor/materials bonds. A labor and materials bond, plus a performance bond shall be required, from an acceptable surety, in such amounts and in such a form as the city finds reasonably necessary to protect the public interest. (h) No bids. If no bids are received, the project may be performed by city employees by force account, informal bidding procedures, or negotiated contract, without further complying with this chapter. (Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.060 Rejecting formal bids.
The following rules apply to rejecting formal bids for public projects:
(a) Rejecting formal bids. In its discretion, the city council may reject any bids presented, if the city, prior to rejecting all bids and declaring that the project can be more economically performed by employees of the agency, furnishes a written notice to an apparent low bidder. The notice shall inform the bidder of the city’s intention to reject the bid and shall be mailed at least two business days prior to the city council meeting at which the city intends to reject the bid. If after the first invitation of bids all bids are rejected, after reevaluating its cost estimates of the project, the city shall have the option of either of the following:
(1) Abandoning the project or re-advertising for bids in the manner described by this chapter. (2) After adopting a resolution by a four-fifths vote of the city council declaring that the project can be performed more economically by city employees, have the public project done by force account without further complying with this chapter. (Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.070 Plans and specifications.
The city council shall adopt plans, specifications, and working details for all public projects exceeding the amount specified in Section 2.21.020(b)(3). Any person may examine the plans, specifications, or working details, or all of these, adopted by the city for any public project.
(Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.080 Emergencies.
(a) In cases of emergency when repair or replacements are necessary, the city council may proceed at once to replace or repair any public facility without adopting plans, specifications, strain sheets, or working details, or giving notice for bids to let contracts. The work may be done by day labor under the direction of the city manager, by contractor, or by a combination of the two.
(b) In case of an emergency, if notice for bids to let contracts will not be given, the city shall comply with Chapter 2.5 of Part 3 of Division 2 of the Public Contract Code (commencing with Section 22050). (Ord. 18-954 § 3 (part), 2018)
2.21.090 Cooperative or piggyback awards.
In all public works projects, whether requiring formal or informal bidding procedures, the city council or the City Manager (when appropriate) may use cooperative competitive bidding procedure or a "piggyback" contract prepared by and processed through another local, state, or federal governmental agency or a cooperative purchasing entity established or utilized by such governments or public agencies. To be eligible, the piggyback contract must have been the result of the competitive bidding process of that entity. Under such circumstances, the city may join into an existing awarded contract obtained within thirty-six (36) months of the contemplated joinder by the city. (Ord. 21-975 § 2, 2021)

(c) To adopt a retail transactions and use tax ordinance that imposes a tax and provides a measure therefore that can be administered and collected by the State Board of Equalization in a manner that adapts itself as fully as practicable to, and requires the least possible deviation from, the existing statutory and administrative procedures followed by the State Board of Equalization in administering and collecting the California State Sales and Use Taxes. (d) To adopt a retail transactions and use tax ordinance that can be administered in a manner that will be, to the greatest degree possible, consistent with the provisions of Part 1.6 of Division 2 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, minimize the cost of collecting the transactions and use taxes, and at the same time, minimize the burden of record keeping upon persons subject to taxation under the provisions of this Chapter.
