J. PUBLIC HEARINGS FOR APPEALS. This section is specifically for appeals of determinations of the Planning Commission, the Design Review Board, or other Boards or Commissions. Public Hearings (Appeals) are different from other public hearings in two ways: (1) In some cases, the City Council can only consider whether a lower body abused its discretion in granting or denying a project application. In other cases, the Council can conduct the hearing “de novo,” meaning that it can consider old and new information and make a determination unbound by the lower body’s decision.

The item’s staff report will clearly state which review standard applies to each appeal item; and (2) public comment generally occurs this way: Staff presents a report about the appeal, Council members ask questions about the report. Then the presiding officer opens the public hearing, inviting the person who filed the appeal (the appellant) to speak first, followed by persons supporting the appellant’s position. Then the presiding officer invites persons disagreeing with appeal to speak. When all speakers have spoken, the presiding officer invites the appellant up a second time to address any comment and to conclude their argument. Following that, the presiding officer closes the public hearing, and the Council deliberates further and ultimately votes on a motion. The City Council conducts all Public Hearings in accordance with the provisions of applicable Laguna Beach procedure and State law. The Mayor shall have discretion to establish the time allocated for persons who wish to speak, often allowing more time for the appellant and/or the applicant.

This agenda item presents a Proclamation recognizing Artist Sunday, an arts event dedicated to supporting artists. The action proposed is ceremonial and recognizes Laguna Beach artists participating in the Sawdust Art Festival Winter Fantasy and members of the Laguna Beach Arts Alliance.

DISCUSSION
Artist Sunday takes place on the first Sunday after Thanksgiving, falling between Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday. Created in 2020, it is recognized as the world’s largest art event dedicated to supporting artists and highlighting their impact on communities and the economy. The day encourages people to shop with artists and purchase art as unique, original, handcrafted gifts during the holiday season. By doing so, participants support local artists, strengthen the local economy, and celebrate creativity. Artist Sunday unites artists and communities nationwide, raising awareness of the value of original art in enriching lives.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action has no financial impact to the budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action has no environmental impact.

CONSENT
4 SUBJECT: CLAIMS AGAINST THE CITY
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Reject Claim #25-09 filed by Kendra Lopez; and

2. Reject Claim #25-44 filed by Jeronim Andronesi.

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
City Staff and the City’s Claims Administrator, George Hills Company, recommend the City Council reject the following claims:
• Claim #25-09, filed by Kendra Lopez on March 6, 2025, alleging bodily injury. • Claim #25-44 filed by Jeronim Andronesi, on September 17, 2025, alleging property damage.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action has no financial impact on the budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), a "project" means an action which has the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (See CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(a).) А "project" specifically does not include organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).) Furthermore, the proposed action is exempt from CEQA as there is no possibility that such action would have a significant negative effect on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).) The proposed action is administrative in nature in that it only approves the rejection of claims as part of the Government Claims Act administration process. As such, the action does not constitute a project.

Alternatively, the action is exempt because there is no possibility that it will have a significant negative effect on the environment as it is a personnel-related action.

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
At its March 25, 2025, meeting, the City Council agreed with the recommendation in the Raftelis report on its organizational and operational assessment of the City's financial operations, to separate the efforts into the Audit Committee as an ad hoc committee of not more than two members of the City Council, and the Investment Advisory Committee comprised of local residents with financial backgrounds, whose main function is to review the investment policy annually, review returns, and make recommendations as to changes. On June 10, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution #25.035 to officially effectuate these changes and formally create the Committee, composed of three members of the public, appointed by the City Council. At its October 14, 2025, meeting, the City Council directed that the Committee be increased to five members, and appointed five residents to the Investment Advisory Committee.

DISCUSSION
At its October 14, 2025, meeting, during the appointments for the newly-established Investment Advisory Committee, the City Council directed that the Committee be increased to five members, and appointed five residents to the Investment Advisory Committee. Attachment 1 is a draft resolution to effectuate the change.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action has no financial impact to the budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(2) and (b)(5), as it involves organizational activities that will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment.

-4- Ord. XXXX
B. Open market purchases. Purchases of goods and services up to $10,000 for a one-time purchase, do not require a competitive solicitation and may be made following the receipt of one price quote or proposal. However, as a matter of fiscal prudence, nothing shall preclude the person initiating the purchase from conducting price comparisons to ensure that the best overall value is obtained and he/she shall endeavor to obtain at least three price quotes or proposals.

C. Competitive solicitation. Purchases of goods and services with an estimated cost greater than $10,000 shall be made following the solicitation of at least three written price quotes or proposals, which may be solicited using any means reasonably calculated to obtain a combination of the lowest price and highest quality of goods or services available, in the reasonable discretion of the city manager and consistent with the City Council Administrative Policy, Policy 1-9 – “Purchasing Policy and Procedures.”

1. The person or department initiating the purchase shall keep a record of all such solicitations and the price quotes or proposals submitted in response thereto.

2. If the person or department initiating the purchase is unable to obtain three price quotes or proposals from responsible bidders or proposers after making diligent efforts to do so, the purchase may be made without obtaining three price quotes or proposals, provided that the efforts made to obtain three quotes or proposals shall be documented in the contract file for the purchase.

3. Nothing in this subsection (C) shall preclude the city manager from requiring a more formal means of solicitation if deemed to be in the best interest of the city.

4. Contracts for goods only shall be awarded to the responsible vendor submitting the lowest bid that provides the needed goods as determined by the city .

5. Contracts for services, except for professional services, may be awarded to the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid, provided, however, in the event the City Manager determines that it is in the best interest of the City, contracts for services subject to this section can be awarded pursuant to subsection (D)(6).

6. Contracts for professional services shall be awarded on the basis of demonstrated competence and the professional qualifications necessary for the satisfactory 6 6 of 66
-5- Ord. XXXX
performance of the services, offered at a fair and reasonable price as determined by the city.

2.30.050 Exceptions to Competitive Procurement Requirements. The competitive solicitation procedures mandated herein shall not apply to procurements that satisfy one or more of the following criteria:

A. No Competitive Advantage. When the city manager or city council determines that no price advantage would be gained from a competitive solicitation process.

B. Sole Source. When the city council or city manager determines that there is only one source that provides the needed services or materials, supplies, and equipment, or to ensure compatibility with other city products and equipment, the city shall work to procure these items in the best interest of the city. Instances of when a sole source procurement may be necessary:

1. The good or service is available from only one vendor.

2. In order to match other products in use to ensure compatibility.

3. In order that a field test or experiment may be made to determine a product’s suitability for future use.

4. Competition is deemed inadequate after soliciting a number of sources.

5. Vendor holds a unique set of skills or expertise that makes it impossible/unlikely anyone else can do the work or the same quality of work.

If there is adequate justification for a sole or single source purchase, then the firm may be selected without other solicitations upon approval of the city manager anticipated to be less than $100,000 and upon city council approval for all other contracts. All sole or single source procurements shall include a written justification and recommendation of the department head.

C. Competitive Bidding Already Completed. When the vendor or service provider was awarded a contract by another public agency, said agency used solicitation procedures substantially similar to those that the city would have been required to use, and the vendor or service provider offers the same price(s) to the city that it offered to the other agency.

Additionally, when the purchase is based on a master agreement, cooperative agreement, multiple award schedule, or other types of agreements entered into by the state of California or the federal government. Examples include, but are not limited to, California Multiple Award Schedules (CMAS) and Federal General Services Administration (GSA) contracts.

D. Emergency. Where an emergency situation exists, or where a disaster has been declared by the city council, state or federal government, such that the life, health or safety of employees or the general public is at risk, or when significant harm may occur to city property or operating systems and goods and/or services must be procured immediately to prevent loss or substantial disruption of city services or functions; provided that competitive bidding is not required by a state or federal reimbursing agency and is otherwise consistent with State law.

F. Legal Professional Services. When, in the opinion of the city attorney, outside legal counsel services are needed and that the applicable solicitation procedures will not result in a better outcome in terms of price and/or quality of service for the City. This exception shall only be relied upon in the event the budget line item for outside counsel services has sufficient, unencumbered funds in an amount equal to or greater than the cost of the outside counsel service. The City Attorney shall be authorized to execute an agreement for outside legal counsel services in any amount provided the other provisions of this subsection (F) are complied with.

G. Best Interest of City. When the city manager determines that bidding would be impractical, inefficient, or otherwise not in the best interest of the city, provided that contract file contains sufficient documentation to justify bid impracticality and does not otherwise violate any Federal or State law.

2.30.060 Emergencies. In case of an emergency, the city council may, by a four-fifths vote, proceed at once to replace or repair any public facility, take any action required by that emergency, including procure necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to award contracts pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22050.

A. Before taking any action, the city council shall make a finding that the emergency will not permit delay resulting from a competitive bid process, and the action is necessary to respond to the emergency.

B. If the city council has ordered any emergency action, it shall review the emergency action at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

7 SUBJECT: AMENDMENT TO SERVICE PROVIDER AGREEMENT FOR LANDSCAPE

MAINTENANCE SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to Agreement No. 20-120 with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc., to extend the term of the agreement through June 30, 2026, and to add an additional $138,330 for services performed through June 30, 2026; and

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council authorize an amendment to Agreement No. 20-120 with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc., to continue providing routine landscape maintenance services at 24 City-owned sites. The amendment would extend the agreement through June 30, 2026, and add $138,330 in funding, including costs for newly added service areas. Funding is available in the FY 2025-26 Budget, and no additional appropriation is required. The proposed action is exempt from environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), as it involves administrative activities with no physical environmental impacts.

DISCUSSION
Background:

On September 22, 2020, the City Council awarded Agreement No. 20-120 to Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc. (Parkwood) to provide routine landscape maintenance services at 24 City-owned locations, including parks, public facilities, parking lots, and streetscapes (Attachment 1). The agreement is currently funded at a not-to-exceed amount of $170,000 for services performed between November 1, 2024, and October 31, 2025, and is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2025.

To ensure uninterrupted service while staff prepares a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a new contract beginning July 1, 2026, an amendment is proposed to extend the existing agreement through June 30, 2026.

Need for Amendment:

Staff is currently developing specifications for a Request for Proposals (RFP) solicitation to be issued later this fiscal year to award a new contract with services to begin July 1, 2026. In order to continue providing uninterrupted landscape maintenance services, an amendment is needed to extend the term of the agreement by eight months through June 30, 2026.

Cost Breakdown:

The cost to continue landscape maintenance services includes $113,330 for an eight-month extension of the existing contract, covering the period from November 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. Additionally, beginning in 2024, Parkwood assumed responsibility for maintaining newly constructed landscape improvements along the Laguna Canyon Channel between Frontage Road and Woodland Drive, at a separate monthly rate of $2,064, or approximately $25,000 annually.

The proposed amendment would formally incorporate this service location into the existing agreement. In total, an additional $138,330 is required to fund these services through June 30, 2026.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The total cost of the agreement amendment is $138,330, which is included in the adopted Fiscal Year 2025- 26 Budget. No additional appropriations are necessary.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action consists of organizational or administrative activities of the City that will not result in a direct or indirect physical change in the environment and therefore does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act. (Public Resources Code Section 21065; 14 CCR Section 15378(b)(5).)

8 SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT TO PRECISION CONCRETE CUTTING FOR

CITYWIDE SIDEWALK SLICING
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

2. Find that the award of contract is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Section 15301.

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council award a construction contract to Southern California Precision Concrete, Inc., dba Precision Concrete Cutting (Precision) in the amount of $200,000 for sidewalk trip hazard removal, assessment and maintenance services. The project will identify and address potential trip hazards on walkways throughout the city. The project has been reviewed under CEQA and is categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines.

AWARD OF CONTRACT TO PRECISION CONCRETE CUTTING FOR CITYWIDE

SIDEWALK SLICING
October 28, 2025

Page 2 of 2 ends

Background and Project Need
The City of Laguna Beach maintains concrete sidewalks along roadways, City facilities, and within parks.

To improve the City’s response in addressing sidewalk deflections and evaluation of trip hazards, City staff recommends the use of contract services to identify, repair, and report potential trip hazards. In previous years, the methods employed for removing deflections included grinding or costly removal and replacement (R&R). Staff recommends using concrete slicing instead of grinding to maintain safe pathways and reduce the amount of R&R needed. This method removes deflections up to 2 inches without needing to remove and replace the sidewalk. Concrete slicing will also ensure that the sidewalks maintain 1:12 slopes to comply with ADA guidelines. This proposed method has already been performed within the Downtown, Heisler Park, and the Aliso Beach parking lots with positive results. The proposed vendor will also provide GIS data to keep track of repairs, including valuable before and after repair data that can be used for future sidewalk maintenance needs and to defend against claims.

Bid Process and Contractor Selection
On November 15, 2024, the City of San Clemente prepared a bid package, notified local contractors, and advertised a Request For Proposals for a Sidewalk Repair and Improvement Program for competitive bidding on the PlanetBids website. Bids were opened on December 2, 2024. The City of San Clemente awarded Precision a contract based on this competitively bid solicitation. The project was bid on an inchfoot basis for trip hazard removal (0.25 inches to 2 inches) and per sidewalk mile for sidewalk assessment.

The proposed contract between the City and Precision (Attachment 1) will piggyback off the San Clemente solicitation. This method ensures a competitive price and will streamline the procurement process to enable the City to expedite this critical work.

Laguna Beach Municipal Code Section 2.30.050(c) states, “If a purchase is based on the bidding efforts of another public agency or purchased in conjunction with another public agency, then the purchase is exempt from bid requirements.” Staff has coordinated with Precision, who has confirmed that they are willing to enter into the proposed piggyback contract based on the pricing and other terms of their existing contract with the City of San Clemente. Therefore, the proposed piggyback contract is consistent with the City’s purchasing code.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Staff is requesting a transfer of $200,000 from the CALTRANS Project 1 Additional Upgrade project account to a new account titled Sidewalk Slicing. The CALTRANS Project 1 Additional Upgrade project is complete and budget surplus remains. The transfer is as follows:

Fund Account Amount Description
CIP Fund 6163130C-81000-CPY10 $(200,000) CALTRANS Project 1 Add. Upgrade CIP Fund 6163130C-81000-CXXXX $200,000 Sidewalk Slicing

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Here, the 2 of 168

recommended action meets the exemption because the proposed work will make repairs to existing sidewalk and will not include any other change in use. Upon taking the recommended action, City staff will cause to be filed within five calendar days a notice of exemption with the County and State Clearinghouse.

(e) Waiver of Subrogation. All required insurance coverages shall contain or be endorsed to waiver of subrogation in favor of the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers or shall specifically allow Contractor or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors. (f) Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or selfinsured retention must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

The Contractor, concurrently with the execution of the Agreement, and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness thereof, shall deliver either certified copies of the required policies, or original certificates on forms approved by the City, together with all endorsements affecting each policy. Required insurance policies shall not be in compliance if they include any limiting provision or endorsement that has not been submitted to the City for approval. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City.

(h) Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A:VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance 8 9 of 168
through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.
(i) Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
(j) Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. (k) Additional Insurance Provisions
(1) The foregoing requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by Contractor, and any approval of said insurance by the City, is not intended to and shall not in any manner limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by the Contractor pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to, the provisions concerning indemnification.
(2) If at any time during the life of the Agreement, any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Contractor or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Contractor payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement.
(3) The City may require the Contractor to provide complete copies of all insurance policies in effect for the duration of the Project. (4) Neither the City nor any of its officials, officers, employees, agents or volunteers shall be personally responsible for any liability arising under or by virtue of this Agreement.
(5) The limits set forth herein shall apply separately to each insured against whom claims are made or suits are brought, except with respect to the limits of liability. Further the limits set forth herein shall not be construed to relieve the Contractor from liability in excess of such coverage, nor shall it limit the Contractor’s indemnification obligations to the City and shall not preclude the City from taking such other actions available to the City under other provisions of the Agreement or law.
(6) Contractor shall report to the City, in addition to Contractor’s insurer, any and all insurance claims submitted by Contractor in connection with the Services under this Agreement.
(l) Insurance for Subcontractors.

CONSENT
9 SUBJECT: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE LAGUNA BEACH COUNTY

WATER DISTRICT FOR SUMMIT DRIVE PAVING
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council approve a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Laguna Beach County Water District (LBCWD) to allow for expanded pavement improvements along Summit Drive between La Mirada Street and Katella Street. LBCWD is currently completing a waterline replacement project in the area, and staff identified an opportunity to cost-effectively expand the pavement work while minimizing future disruptions. The existing roadway is in deteriorated condition and in need of significant repair. The City’s share of the additional work totals $195,833 and is available due to savings in the Zone 5 Street Slurry Seal project. The proposed action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15301(c).

DISCUSSION
The LBCWD initiated a capital improvement project to replace an aging 8-inch water main along Summit Drive between La Mirada Street and Katella Street, which had a history of leaks. The project includes the installation of approximately 600 feet of new 8-inch PVC pipeline, three new valves, and reconnections of existing water meter services. A location map is provided as Attachment 1.

On June 20, 2024, LBCWD awarded a construction contract to Ferreira Construction following a competitive bidding process from its approved contractor list. The District’s construction scope includes trenching and resurfacing only the area directly above the new waterline. However, City staff observed that the existing roadway pavement within the project limits is in poor condition and in need of broader repair.

To avoid duplicative construction efforts, reduce long-term impacts to the community, and take advantage of cost savings from the District’s existing contract, the City requested that LBCWD perform additional pavement rehabilitation work beyond its original scope. The District agreed to perform this expanded scope, approximately 18,465 square feet of pavement resurfacing and related striping, on the condition that the City reimburse its fair share of the costs.

The total reimbursement amount is $195,833, which reflects the City’s share of the additional work.

Entering into a MOU (Attachment 2) will allow the City to capitalize on the competitively bid unit prices 1 of 180

DISTRICT FOR SUMMIT DRIVE PAVING
October 28, 2025

secured by the District, enabling a more efficient and cost-effective delivery of roadway improvements.

Under the MOU, LBCWD will complete the expanded pavement work, while the City will provide inspection, acceptance, and payment for the improvements that extend beyond the District’s original waterline project.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The total cost of the City’s fair share of the additional pavement repair and striping is $195,833. Funding is available in the existing budget due to savings from the Zone 5 Street Slurry Seal Project. Specifically, funds are available in account 6323130C-81000-C2315. No additional appropriation is required..

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The proposed action to approve a memorandum of understanding between the City and District is not a project under Section 15378 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, and is exempt under Section 15061(b)(3), as there is no possibility it may have a significant effect on the environment.

The additional pavement repair is categorically exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15301(c) (Existing Facilities). The exemption applies to repair, maintenance, and minor alteration of existing public streets involving negligible or no expansion of use. All pavement repairs are within existing rights of way.

The Laguna Beach County Water District Board determined that the pipeline project is statutorily exempt from CEQA under Public Resources Code section 21080.21, which statutorily exempts "any project of less than one mile in length within a public street or highway or any other public right-of-way for the installation of a new pipeline or the maintenance, repair, restoration, reconditioning, relocation, replacement, removal, or demolition of an existing pipeline.”

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BY AND BETWEEN

THE CITY OF LAGUNA BEACH AND

THE LAGUNA BEACH COUNTY WATER DISTRICT

FOR OVERSIZED PAVEMENT PROJECT
This MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING ("MOU") is entered into as of this ____ day of ______________, 2025 (“Effective Date”) by and between the Laguna Beach County Water District (“District”), located at 306 Third Street, Laguna Beach, CA and the City of City Laguna Beach, a California municipal corporation and charter city (“City”), located at 505 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, CA, with each individually referred to as “Party” and collectively referred to as the "Parties."

R E C I T A L S
A. Water District obtained approval for a public works construction contract for the Summit Pipeline Replacement project (the “Project”).

B. During Water District’s construction work under the Project, the Water District needs to remove and replace and restore the trench cut area to the same or better condition, in accordance with current practice and repave the area above the pipe.

C. In order to minimize the impact to the area for multiple projects, and to reduce the costs associated with two separate and distinct projects, the City has requested that the Water District install pavement improvements to a greater extent than that needed to serve only the Project, which improvements will benefit the City and the public from both a cost and convenience perspective.

D. Specifically, the Project’s total cost is $359,021.19 with a demand for pavement work that would require the installation of approximately 2,610 square feet of pavement costing $19,914.30 (“Pavement Line Item”). The City has requested that the Water District instead install approximately 18,465 square feet of additional pavement and ancillary resurfacing work costing $195,832.67 (the “Oversized Pavement Project”) to the overall Project.

E. In order to capitalize on the publicly bid Project that already had the Pavement Line Item, the Parties desire to add the Oversize Pavement Project to the Project to more holistically repair the pavement in the area at a reduced cost compared to bidding a separate and distinct project just for the Oversized Pavement Project.

F. Water District shall be responsible for constructing and installing the Oversized Pavement Project but City shall be responsible for inspecting the Oversize Pavement Project and coordinating acceptance of construction. The Water District is willing to pay for the costs of constructing and installing the Oversized Pavement Project, subject to the City’s agreement to reimburse Water District for the difference in cost between the Pavement Line Item and the Oversized Pavement Project, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

2. TERMINATION
Either party may terminate this MOU by providing the other Party with not less than sixty (60) calendar days’ written notice to the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Section 6 and Section 10 of this MOU shall survive the expiration or early termination of this MOU.

3. REIMBURSABLE IMPROVEMENTS.
a. The Oversized Pavement Project improvements subject to this Agreement are shown and described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
b. Water District shall construct and install the Oversized Pavement Project consistent with the scope of work and cost described in Exhibit “A.” To the extent that any provision in Exhibit “A” conflicts with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement govern.

d. The City shall reimburse Water District its costs and fees for the Reimbursable Improvements via check within thirty (30) calendar days after acceptance of the Reimbursable Improvements by the City, in accordance with the scope of work and cost described in Exhibit “A” in an amount not to exceed total of $195,832.67 (the “Maximum Reimbursement”). In addition, the Parties acknowledge that the costs for the Reimbursable Improvements may increase during the course of construction due to unanticipated market conditions, acts of God, or other force majeure events that are outside the reasonable control of the Water District or its contractor.

The Water District shall present the increase to the City in a written change order for review and approval in writing. The City shall not unreasonably withhold approval of a change order but is in no event obligated to approve a change order that exceeds Thirty Percent (30%) of the Maximum Reimbursement. The City shall not compensate Water District for any change orders not approved in advance by the City.

4. REPORTING AND ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS
5 5 of 180
At all times during the term of this MOU, each Party shall maintain true, proper, and complete books, records, and accounts (collectively, “Books and Records”) in which shall be entered fully and accurately all funds received and transactions completed for the Oversize Pavement Project as well as the expenditure of any funds for the Oversize Pavement Project. Each Party shall make available to the other party copies of such Books and Records upon five (5) working days of the other party’s written request.

5. INDEPENDENT ENTITY
In the performance of this MOU, each Party, and the volunteers, agents and employees of each Party, shall act in an independent capacity and are not officers, employees or agents of the other Party.

6. INDEMNIFICATION
City agrees to save, defend, protect, and hold harmless the Water District and its officials, officers, agents, and employees from and against any and all claims, liabilities, expenses, or damages of any nature, including attorneys' fees (at market rates), for injury or death of any person, or damage to property, or interference with use of property, arising out of or in any way connected with Water District’s performance pursuant to this Agreement on behalf of the City or performance pursuant to this Agreement by agents, officers, employees, contractors, subcontractors, or independent contractors hired by Water District on behalf of the City. The only exemption to City's responsibility to save, protect, defend, and hold harmless Water District is due to the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Water District. This hold harmless provision applies to all liability regardless of whether any insurance policy applies. The policy limits of such insurance, if any applies, do not limit the amount of indemnification to be provided by City.

Water District shall not be liable for any defect, error, or omission in or relating to the plans and specifications for the Reimbursable Improvements. To the extent that any defect, error, or omission relating to the design or engineering of the Reimbursable Improvements is discovered at any time, the City, on behalf of itself and its successors-in-interest, and their respective employees, contractors and agents, hereby releases and absolutely discharges forever, and hereby agrees to indemnify, protect, hold harmless, and defend Water District (with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Water District), its officials, officers, agents, and employees, and its successors and assigns, from costs and expenses (including reasonable court costs and market rate attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to such defects.

Ferreira has provided credit for the incidental trench paving quantities.
- The price for the full-depth repairs at 4 locations was in coordination with the City of Laguna Beach at their direction.
- During an On-Site meeting on June 16th, City of Laguna Beach representatives directed the use of standard paint in lieu of thermoplastic when re-stripping the road. - Ferreira personnel were added as supplemental support for the subcontractors to complete the scope of work.

COR#4 pertains to additional asphalt pavement work that was not included in the contractual documents/bid. This proposal includes a 2" grind and overlay of a roughly 24' wide by 630' long road along Summit Drive. Ferreira is reducing the price of the 2" Grind and Overlay to account for what was originally bid, which was just the area for the pipeline trench. This proposal also includes four (4) areas for full depth removal and repair.

10 SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF PROJECTS TO THE

FEDERAL TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (FTIP) TITLED, A

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF LAGUNA BEACH WHICH CERTIFIES THAT

LAGUNA BEACH HAS THE RESOURCES TO FUND THE PROJECTS IN THE FEDERAL FISCAL YEAR 2026/27 – 2031/32 TRANSPORTATION

IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND AFFIRMS ITS COMMITMENT TO

IMPLEMENT ALL PROJECTS IN THE PROGRAM
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Adopt the attached Resolution titled, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY

OF LAGUNA BEACH, CALIFORNIA, WHICH CERTIFIES THAT THE CITY OF LAGUNA

BEACH HAS THE RESOURCES TO FUND THE PROJECTS IN THE FEDERAL FISCAL YEAR 2026/27 – 2031/32 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AND AFFIRMS ITS COMMITMENT TO IMPLEMENT ALL PROJECTS IN THE PROGRAM”; and

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution affirming the City of Laguna Beach’s commitment to fund and implement projects listed in the Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2026/27 – 2031/32 Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP). Adoption of this resolution is a prerequisite to maintaining eligibility for current and future federal transportation grant funding.

The FTIP, prepared by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), is a federally mandated, financially constrained program that includes all regionally significant and federally funded transportation projects. This includes improvements such as highway enhancements, public transit operations, signal synchronization, and intersection upgrades.

The City currently receives Transit Operating Assistance grant funding and has submitted an application for $7 million in federal Surface Transportation Block Grant/Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (STBG/CMAQ) funding for the Laguna Canyon Road: Protect and Connect project. A resolution is required by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) to certify the City's commitment and readiness to implement projects if grant funding is approved.

There is no fiscal impact associated with adopting the resolution. The action does not constitute a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3), as it does not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change to the environment. 1 of 185

ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF PROJECTS TO THE FTIP October 28, 2025

Page 2 of 2 ends

DISCUSSION
The FTIP lists multi-modal transportation projects identified in the Regional Transportation Plan prepared by SCAG. The FTIP covers a minimum of four years with updates every two years (SCAG generally includes a six-year plan in its FTIP). OCTA coordinates with SCAG to prepare the FTIP.

The City has one existing project and one project that is being considered for approval by SCAG. Project details are listed below.

1. Transit Operating Assistance
a. Total grant funding received from FY25 through FY2031 is $2,024,489 with a 50% local match.
b. Support for trolley services.

2. Laguna Canyon Road: Protect and Connect
a. $7,000,000 request for PS&E.
b. Anticipate a decision in November 2025.
c. If grant is successful, project will be added to the FFY 27 FTIP.

The City must adopt a resolution affirming the commitment to fund and implement projects in the 2027 FTIP. OCTA will certify projects through the SCAG FTIP Process once the City provides an adopted resolution.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The recommended actions have no financial impact at this stage. Funding for the Transit Operating Assistance is already programmed in the City’s budget and there is no commitment for Laguna Canyon Road until a grant is approved.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The recommended action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3). Specifically, this action does not involve a project as defined under CEQA because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. The action consists of adopting a resolution to allow the City to be eligible to receive federal grant funds for projects listed on the Federal Transportation Improvement Program.

11 SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE DEMOLITION OF THE DENTAL BUILDING AT 31796 S COAST HIGHWAY
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Award and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Precision Environmental, Inc. in the amount of $110,000, for demolition of the Dental Building at 31796 S Coast Highway;

2. Authorize the City Manager to approve project-related expenses and contract change orders for unforeseen circumstances in an amount not to exceed $11,000; and

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council award a construction contract to Precision Works Inc., DBA Precision Environmental, Inc., (Precision) in the amount of $110,000 for the Demolition of the Dental Building at 31796 S Coast Highway. The project is the initial phase of construction for Fire Station 4. The cost is within the approved budget for the overall Fire Station project of $9,300,000. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (State Clearinghouse No. 2022090383) was prepared and adopted by the City Council on November 15, 2022.

DISCUSSION
Background and Project Need
The City of Laguna Beach has an approved Design Review 25-0261, Coastal Development Permit 25-0260, Conditional Use Permit 25-0262, and Sign Permit 25-0401 (Entitlements) to construct a new fire station at 31796 S Coast Highway. The Entitlements include the demolition of the existing building and site improvements. The proposed scope of work under the proposed demolition contract will perform lead and asbestos abatement, demolish the existing building, building foundation, and removal of the existing parking lot improvements. The scope of work does not include the existing sidewalks so that the pedestrian circulation can remain in place until the new sidewalk and drive approaches are ready to be constructed. At the completion of the project, the site will remain fenced off with erosion control and water quality devices in place. The building and site demolition is scheduled to last 30 working days.

While the building demolition is taking place, the City’s consultant, PBK, will complete the design of the site retaining walls. The retaining walls are scheduled to be bid on their own. This will ensure a contractor specialized in constructing this type and size of wall is selected. Staff plans to return to the Planning Commission for final consultation as to final finishes and landscaping, then put the building construction and related site improvements out to bid. Then a final contract will be awarded to construct the building and all other site improvements. The overall project is estimated to be constructed over 12-14 months, starting in early 2026.

Bid Process and Contractor Selection
Staff completed a public bid process for the project in accordance with California Public Contract Code requirements. On October 10, 2025, twenty-three (23) bids were received. Twelve (12) were deemed responsive and responsible and are listed below by bid amount:

Table of Bid Results
Bidder Bid Amount

1. Precision Environmental Inc. $110,000

2. Abajian Enterprise $112,500

3. Interior Demolition, Inc. $115,888

4. Diamond Construction $137,350

5. Elka Construction Inc. $155,000

6. Developers General Contracting, Inc. $174,580

7. Global Builders Inc. $198,888

8. Danny Ryan Precision Contracting, Inc.
dba ADEP Precision Contracting
$199,900

9. YMC $234,650

10. SFS Constructors & Builders, Inc. $239,880

11. Orangeblue General Contractors $262,000

12. Aza Construction $295,500
Following a review of the bids, staff determined that the lower bidder, Precision, is qualified, properly licensed, and their bid was determined to be responsive and responsible. Precision has successfully completed similar demolition projects for other municipalities in Southern California. Staff recommends that the contract be awarded to Precision in the amount of $110,000 (Attachment 1). It is also recommended that funding be provided to cover change orders due to unforeseen conditions. These costs are not expected to exceed $11,000; therefore, it is recommended that the City Manager be authorized to approve change orders for unforeseen circumstances in the amount not to exceed $11,000. Construction is anticipated to begin in December 2025 and be completed by January 2026.

NOTE: Precision Environmental is a different firm than Precision Concrete, which is also on this agenda for a different contract approval.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
There is an available budget of $9,300,000 for the larger Fire Station #4 project. This $110,000 allocation falls within the expected parameters for the Project’s demolition costs. No additional appropriation is requested.

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines, an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (State Clearinghouse No. 2022090383) was prepared pursuant to CEQA, which analyzed the Project for any potential environmental impacts. A Final MND was prepared incorporating public comments received after the conclusion of public review comment period for the Draft MND and adopted by the City Council on November 15, 2022. Based on the Final Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration, and evidence contained in supplemental reports and documents, it has been determined that the Project would not have a significant effect on the environment with the incorporation of Project mitigation measures.

12 SUBJECT: MARINE SAFETY SEASONAL AND JUNIOR LIFEGUARD UNIFORM

PURCHASE
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council

1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement, in a form approved by the City Attorney, to purchase Marine Safety uniforms for a total of 750 lifeguards in an amount not to exceed $119,000; and

2. Find that the recommended action is not a project within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act under Public Resources Code Section 21065.

SUMMARY OF THE MATTER
This report recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Florence Marine X, LLC, for the purchase of Marine Safety and Junior Lifeguard uniforms in an amount not to exceed $119,000. The Marine Safety Department employs 200 seasonal staff and enrolls up to 550 Junior Lifeguard participants annually, all of whom require uniforms such as board shorts, rash guards, towels, shirts, and hats.

In accordance with the City’s Purchasing System (Chapter 2.30 of the Municipal Code), the Department conducted an informal bid process and received three proposals. Florence Marine X, LLC was identified as the lowest responsive and most qualified bidder. Funding for this purchase is included in the FY 2025-26 budget and no additional appropriation is required.

DISCUSSION
The Marine Safety Department employs 200 seasonal staff and registers up to 550 participants in the Junior Lifeguard program, all of whom require uniforms. To meet this demand, the department's budget includes dedicated funding for the purchase of Lifeguard and Junior Lifeguard uniforms, which consist of board shorts, rash guards, hats, towels, and shirts.

To ensure a competitive and cost-effective procurement, the Marine Safety Department followed the informal bid procedure for the proposed purchase of goods as set forth in Chapter 2.30 (Purchasing System), which requires canvassing the market place to identify the vendors most likely to provide appropriate goods at a reasonable price, soliciting at least three vendors’ written or oral bids, and awarding the purchase to the vendor that is the most qualified bidder.

Bids were evaluated based on factors specified in the Purchasing System, including:
• Price;
• The ability, capacity, and skill of the bidder;
• Whether the bidder has the facilities to perform the contract promptly, or within the time specified; without delay or interference;

MARINE SAFETY SEASONAL AND JUNIOR LIFEGUARD UNIFORM PURCHASE October 28, 2025

Page 2 of 3 ends

• The character, integrity, reputation, judgment, experience and efficiency of the bidder; • The bidder's record of performance of previous contracts; • Previous and existing compliance by the bidder with laws and ordinances relating to the contract; • The sufficiency of the financial resources and ability of the bidder to perform the contract; • The quality and availability of the supplies, equipment, or services purchased, and the adaptability of the above to the particular use required;
• The ability of the bidder to provide future maintenance and service for the supplies, equipment, or services purchased;
• The number and scope of conditions attached to the bid; • Determination of lowest responsible bidder for construction projects in accordance with California Public Contract Code Section 20162.

In response to a request for bids, the City received three proposals from marine uniform providers based on the department's projected one-year requirements. After reviewing the proposals, Florence Marine X, LLC, based in Newport Beach, California, was identified as the lowest responsive bidder. A summary of the proposals received is below.

Vendor Location Total Bid Amount
Florence Marine X, LLC Newport Beach, CA $118,987
Patagonia Ventura, CA $137,367
Quicksilver/Nike Huntington Beach, CA $137,701
Florence Marine X, LLC, a local vendor, is known for delivering high-quality water gear. Staff recommends awarding the purchase of Marine Safety and Junior Lifeguard uniforms to Florence Marine X, LLC, as the most qualified bidder.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The Department of Marine Safety’s FY 2025–26 Uniform and Laundry budget (Account No. 1102601- 55000) includes $167,000. The proposed uniform purchase, in an amount not to exceed $119,000, is fully funded within this allocation and does not require any additional appropriation.
