27 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 6/4/2024
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT:

FIRST AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENTS WITH ARDURRA GROUP, INC. AND

ANNEALTA GROUP FOR MUNICIPAL ENGINEERING/ STAFF

AUGMENTATION SERVICES
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Approve the First Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Ardurra Group, Inc. for Municipal Engineering/ Staff Augmentation Services.

2. Approve the First Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Annealta Group for Municipal Engineering/ Staff Augmentation Services.

3. Authorize the Mayor to execute, and the City Clerk to attest, the First Amendment to the Agreement with Ardurra Group, Inc., substantially in the form attached.

4. Authorize the Mayor to execute, and the City Clerk to attest, the First Amendment to the Agreement with Annealta Group, substantially in the form attached.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Public Works Department uses consultants to provide municipal engineering services for applicant-initiated activities, as well as provide contract staff on an as-needed basis. The City requires continued support from Ardurra Group, Inc. (“Ardurra”) and Annealta Group (“Annealta”), to provide timely plan checks of development plans, construction inspection in new developments, and inspection for encroachment permit activities in the public street right-of-way.

The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement for Ardurra would extend the term of the agreement for the first one-year extension to June 30, 2025, and update the billing rate sheet to reflect each consultant’s current hourly rates. In addition, the amendment would increase the total compensation amount by $700,000 to a total compensation amount of $4,000,000 to provide for continued services for the next year. Most of this increase is directly reimbursable by Item: 7
28 development deposits. As the original agreements did not include the City’s current Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) cap language for rate increases, the rates in the amendments reflect the current hourly rates for the consultants. Based on recent City procurements, the rates appear to reflect market rates for engineers and inspectors.

The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement for Annealta would extend the term of the agreement for the first one-year extension to June 30, 2025, and update the billing rate sheet to reflect each firm’s current billing rates. The current total compensation amount under the agreement with Annealta is sufficient to accommodate the proposed rate increases and term extension.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Ardurra and the First Amendment to the Agreement with Annealta. The proposed amendments were prepared by the Finance Department and approved as to form by the City Attorney.

BACKGROUND:

On June 1, 2021, the City Council approved Professional Consultant Services Agreements with Ardurra (Attachment 1) and Annealta (Attachment 2) for professional municipal engineering services with total compensation amounts of $3,300,000 and $750,000, respectively (“Original Agreements”). Each agreement also includes an initial term from July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2024, and an option for two additional one-year terms.

The Public Works Department utilizes a municipal engineering contract to provide public works and engineering support on an as-needed basis. This includes supplemental staff services, office support, engineering design services, and plan check and inspection of development-related projects. Historically, there has been a greater need for services that provide plan checks for tract maps, grading plans, street improvements plans, and inspections of permitted work.

Currently, there are two major residential development projects within the city.

In the next year, staff anticipates continuing to review development plans for: the last phase of the Toll Brothers Meadows development with 57 residential units; and Portola Center - The Oaks with over 100 residential units remaining to be constructed. In addition, two fiber internet companies are installing fiber internet within the right-of-way throughout the city. Given these projects and the work these developments generate, staff anticipates the level of land development and encroachment activities will continue to require additional plan check and inspection as the continuing development of these properties and fiber installation proceeds toward build-out.

Item: 7
29 The contract service model allows the City flexibility by augmenting or reducing contract staff as required without interrupting services to residents, businesses, or developers, while continuing to meet service goals. The scope of work includes:
• Land use development application review
• Development plan and permit review
• Inspection of development and encroachment projects
• Design and project management of capital improvement projects • “As-Needed” Public Works Staff Augmentation
Given the need for these services and the magnitude of the projects and related processing, staff utilizes two consultants to ensure the City can meet the potential demand for development-related services. This allows staff to appropriately meet the demands of City services for project management, plan checking, and construction inspection when needed. This multiple consultant approach provides the City with greater flexibility in assigning time-sensitive work to consultants for a specific project or task. In exercising this flexibility, staff would evaluate the merits of the proposed consulting staff and select the best candidate based on specific qualifications, cost, and personnel best suited to provide the requested services. The services provided by the consultants are on a not-to-exceed, on-call basis, based on the actual needs of the City at any time.

In addition, deposits are collected for development and encroachment plan check and inspection services from the project applicants for private developments and encroachment permits.

DISCUSSION:

Per the Original Agreements with Ardurra and Annealta, the proposed First Amendments would extend the contracts by using the first optional one-year term extension under the agreement. Article 3.3.5 in each of the Original Agreements allows the consultant to request an adjustment in compensation at the time of renewal of the agreement.

Per Article 3.3.5, Ardurra requested to revise rates to reflect their current rates due to the cost of doing business increasing over the previous three years. The proposed rates include an average 16% increase and reflect the current rates for the consultant for the additional year of services. Staff reviewed agreements for similar services, namely Construction Administration/Construction Inspection Services (“CACI”), that are comparable to these agreements for municipal engineering services. The comparison of hourly rates is shown in Table 1 and support that the procurement of these services would likely yield similar hourly rates to the rates being requested by the consultant and proposed in the First Item: 7
30 Amendment with Ardurra. The First Amendment also adds a CPI escalator/cap clause that would cap any future rate increases at the CPI.

*When there are multiple positions with a similar title (e.g. Engineer I, Engineer II, etc.), the highest hourly rate is used for comparison.

Ardurra provides development plan check and development inspection services as well as encroachment inspection services. Approval of the First Amendment would ensure continuity and efficiency in ongoing and future projects. Re- procurement of these services would result in a six-month delay, disrupting development and encroachment inspections, which would impact construction timelines, increase costs for developers, and stall progress on infrastructure and development projects. The consultant’s familiarity with the City's standards and regulations, established rapport with developers, and proven track record will ensure that services are maintained without interruption. Additionally, a rate increase can be justified by inflationary pressures and the increasing complexity of projects, ensuring that the City continues to receive high-quality and timely inspection services.

The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Ardurra would increase the compensation amount by $700,000, to bring total compensation under the agreement from $3,300,000 to $4,000,000, to provide resources to plan check and provide construction inspection for FY 2024-25 (Attachment 3). The current not-to-exceed contract amount with Ardurra is $3,300,000 for the current contract term, July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2024. Through March 2024, 89% of the original agreement term, Ardurra has performed $2,984,123 worth of work or 90% of the agreement compensation.

Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, staff completed a vendor performance assessment for Ardurra for the proposed contract amendment. The vendor performance assessment is used as a guide to Item: 7
31 determine whether a contract should be amended, renewed, or terminated based on performance in the following categories: performance of scope of services; timeliness; budget performance; and customer service. Utilizing an evaluation form, staff rates the consultant in each category as shown in Table

Per Article 3.3.5, Annealta requested to revise rates to reflect their current rates due to the cost of doing business increasing over the previous three years as well as reflect additional primary and support staff positions to be provided under the agreement. The contractor provided a revised list of positions and rates to represent the staff available more effectively for the tasks assigned under the current scope of work. Amending these rates allows the consultant to efficiently deploy only the necessary resources to address requests for work from the City and ensure that qualified positions are completing the work. The First Amendment also adds a CPI escalator/cap clause that would cap any future rate increases at the CPI.

The current not-to-exceed contract amount with Annealta is $750,000 for the current contract term, July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2024. Staff notes that through March 2024, 89% of the original agreement term, Annealta has performed $353,129 worth of work of the 47% of the agreement compensation. Therefore, no additional increase to total compensation under the agreement is requested for the proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Annealta (“Attachment 4”).

Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing and Contract Guidelines, staff completed a vendor performance assessment for Annealta for the proposed contract amendment. The vendor performance assessment is used as a guide to determine whether a contract should be amended, renewed, or terminated based on performance in the following categories: performance of scope of services; Item: 7
32 timeliness; budget performance; and customer service. Utilizing an evaluation form, staff rates the consultant in each category as shown in Table 3.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Ardurra and the First Amendment to the Agreement with Annealta. The proposed amendments were prepared by the Finance Department and approved as to form by the City Attorney.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The funding sources for the contract amendment primarily include deposits and fees collected from project applicants for private developments and encroachment permits; any General Fund related work is appropriated per project through other approved budgeted accounts. As the work is largely dependent on an applicant paying a deposit or fee for the work, or through appropriated City projects, sufficient funds have been included in 2023-2025 Operating Budget.

SUBJECT:

AWARD OF AGREEMENT FOR JANITORIAL SERVICES AT THE SPORTS

PARK AND RECREATION CENTER
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Approve the Agreement for Maintenance Services with a compensation amount of $300,000 to Crown Facility Solutions for janitorial maintenance services at the Sports Park and Recreation Center.

2. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk attest, the Agreement for Maintenance Services with Crown Facility Solutions, substantially in the form attached.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City utilizes the services of a janitorial firm to perform the cleaning needs at the Lake Forest Sports Park and Recreation Center. The City’s current contract arrangement for janitorial services at the Lake Forest Sports Park and Recreation Center (“Sports Park”) is set to expire on June 30, 2024. Staff initiated a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) process to secure a new janitorial firm in light of the upcoming expiration of the current arrangement. On February 14, 2024, staff posted the RFP document to OpenGov, the City’s electronic procurement management system. The City received eight responses by the March 1, 2024, deadline. A selection committee approved by the City Manager reviewed all proposals and conducted interviews with qualified proposers. Staff recommends the City Council approve the attached Maintenance Services Agreement with Crown Facility Solutions (“Agreement”) (Attachment 1). The Agreement includes a $300,000 compensation amount and a three-year term with two optional one-year extensions.

The proposed Agreement also includes sufficient compensation to cover the costs of janitorial work associated with sports tournaments and routine activities that take place at the Sports Park. Staff performed a reference check in accordance with the City’s Purchasing & Contracting Guidelines (“Purchasing Guidelines”), which provided favorable reviews of Crown’s work (Attachment 2).

The scope of work for the Agreement includes daily Recreation Center janitorial services, which includes the North and South Clubhouses. The scope of work Item: 8
100

also includes language to ensure adequate janitorial services are provided for special events.

The proposed Agreement was prepared by the Finance Department and has been approved as to form by the City Attorney. The 2023-2025 Operating Budget includes sufficient funding to cover the costs of the recommended action.

BACKGROUND:

The Sports Park consists of the Recreation Center, North and South Clubhouses, which opened in November 2014. The Sports Park is commonly referred to as the community’s “crown jewel” due to the many opportunities to either host or take part in events on site. These events vary from everyday sports user groups, adult sports leagues, contract classes, birthday parties, special events, and sports tournaments.

Sports Park facilities require a high volume of consistent and ordinary cleaning services. Since July 1, 2019, the janitorial services for the Sports Park have been provided by Crown, whose contract is set to expire on June 30, 2024.

The janitorial needs of the Sports Park include:
•Vacuum carpet
•Empty trash & recycle bins
•Clean mirrors & fixtures
•Restock paper & soap
•Sweep & damp mop floors
•Wipe counters & appliances
•Quarterly deep cleanings
The RFP was issued on February 14, 2024, via OpenGov, the City’s electronic procurement management system.

DISCUSSION:

The City received eight proposals in response to the RFP by the March 1, 2024, deadline. Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing Guidelines, staff assembled a selection committee approved by the City Manager to review the proposals. The Selection Committee comprised of the Deputy City Manager, Recreation Manager, Facilities Maintenance Manager, and Senior Recreation Supervisor reviewed the proposals.

Item: 8
101

The proposal review process was comprised of three phases: the Technical Review of written proposals, the Qualifications Interview Phase, and the Cost Scoring evaluation. The RFP received interest from eight firms that downloaded all the files associated with the procurement and submitted proposals through the OpenGov system. Six proposals qualified for the Technical Review phase and four firms passed to the Qualifications Interview phase.

A firm must receive an average score of 60% (or higher) in the Technical Review phase to move on to the Qualifications Interview phase. Four firms received the minimum scoring from the reviews of the technical proposals (see Table 1 below), and the City invited these four firms to the Qualifications Interview phase of the selection process to discuss their respective approach to the requested services. Interviews were held on March 25, 2024.

Crown received the highest overall score of 177.2, compared to 142.2 for Team One Management, and 97.8 for Santa Fe Janitorial Maintenance Service, Inc.

Premier Property Preservation, LLC was unable to attend the scheduled interview.

Throughout the RFP process, Crown demonstrated an excellent understanding of the City’s needs. Crown Facility Solutions presented a detailed management plan with checklists and effective communication protocols. Staff conducted reference checks for Crown, all of which highly recommended the firm (Attachment 2). As a result, the Selection Committee concluded that Crown is the “most qualified” contractor to provide janitorial services at the Sports Park.

Cost Proposals
Cost proposal submissions were based on monthly and as-needed services.

At the conclusion of the Qualifications Interview process, all proposers had the opportunity to submit a revised cost proposal. No firms submitted a revised cost proposal. Table 3 below includes the final cost proposals received.

Compensation is comprised of routine monthly janitorial services and up to 24 sports tournament cleanings per year. Although Team One Management submitted the lowest proposal price, Team One Management received comparably lower scores in Technical Review and Qualifications Interview phases of the process relative to Crown. It was clear to the selection committee that Crown had the most thorough understanding of the volume of work required to keep the Sports Park facilities clean and presentable. Crown’s approach to managing the workload required of the City’s facilities was exceptionally organized and detailed relative to the other proposers. Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing Guidelines, the combined scoring determines the most qualified vendor, which is Crown.

In addition to routine services, staff is also proposing an annual contingency allocation of $16,912 to account for unforeseen circumstances or emergent needs as detailed in Table 4 below. If room and other rental activity exceed staff’s projections, facilities may require additional cleaning services. Tables 3 and 4 describe the compensation required to cover routine services and the as- needed costs for additional cleaning services.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 6/4/2024
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT:

AWARD OF AGREEMENT FOR BUS SHELTER MAINTENANCE SERVICES RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Award Agreement for Maintenance Services in the amount of $211,145.70 to ShelterClean Services, Inc., for Bus Shelter Maintenance Services.

2. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk to attest, the award of contract to ShelterClean Services, Inc., substantially in the form attached.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The current contract with ShelterClean Services, Inc., (“ShelterClean”) for bus shelter maintenance services expires on June 30, 2024. There are no additional term extensions remaining on the contract and consequently, in accordance with the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, the City is required to re- procure these services. Staff authorized the issuance of a Request for Bids in March 2024. After opening bids, staff determined ShelterClean to be the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. Staff recommends the City Council award an Agreement for Maintenance Services to ShelterClean for bus shelter maintenance services.

The proposed Bus Shelter Agreement for Maintenance Services with ShelterClean (“Agreement”) term beginning July 1, 2024, is three years with two optional one-year extensions at the discretion of the City Council (Attachment 1).

The proposed Agreement includes a compensation amount of $211,145.70, and was prepared by the Finance department and approved as to form by the City Attorney. Sufficient funds for the contract are included in the 2023-2025 Operating Budget.

BACKGROUND:

The City maintains 50 bus shelters and 51 bus benches with appurtenant trash receptacles at most locations. These facilities provide convenience for passengers that use bus lines operated by the Orange County Transportation Item: 9
143

Authority (“OCTA”) and require periodic cleaning and maintenance. The current contract for bus shelter maintenance services provides for cleaning and repair of all bus shelters and bus benches. The scope of work performed under the current contract consists of pressure washing bus stop shelters, benches, and trash receptacles; emptying of trash receptacles and replacement of plastic bags/liners; and cleaning glass panels and repairing broken glass at bus shelters. Also included in the work is removal of graffiti, and general clean-up at bus shelter and bus bench locations. The current agreement ends June 30, 2024. There are no additional term extensions remaining on the contract and consequently, in accordance with the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, the City has re-procured these services. The scope of work for the proposed contract remains the same.

DISCUSSION:

On March 18, 2024, Public Works posted the Request for Bids (“RFB”) through the OpenGov procurement portal for Bus Shelter Maintenance Services.

Nineteen contractors downloaded the project documents. On April 4, 2024, the City received three (3) bids ranging from $211,145.70 to $479,310.66. The solicitation received 324 views, 19 downloads, and 3 applicants. Staff reviewed ShelterClean’s bid package for completeness. In addition, the electronic bidding system the City utilizes eliminates mathematical errors in the bids, therefore, the submitted bid results are provided in Table 1 below.

Table 1: Bid Results
Contracting Firm OpenGov Verified Total 3-Year
ShelterClean Services, Inc. $211,145.70
Kept Companies $360,774.00
Z&C Services, Inc. $479,310.66
Staff conducted a reference check on ShelterClean to determine the company’s status as a responsible bidder (Attachment 2). Staff received favorable comments from the company’s references having conducted work for other municipal agencies. Staff also confirmed that ShelterClean maintains a valid contractor’s license as specified in the bid documents and that the company has experience performing similar maintenance projects. In addition, ShelterClean has provided bus shelter maintenance services for the City of Lake Forest for the past ten years through previous contracts awarded in 2014 and 2019, which included fulfilling the two (2) one-year optional agreement extensions under each agreement. Predicated on the review of the bid and background check, staff recommend the City Council deem ShelterClean the lowest responsive, responsible bidder for this maintenance project and award the Agreement for Maintenance Services to ShelterClean.

Item: 9
144

The Finance Department prepared the maintenance services agreement with ShelterClean, which the City Attorney reviewed and approved as to form. The proposed agreement would be for the standard three-year initial term with two optional one-year extensions based on performance and at the City Council’s discretion. The proposed agreement includes a total not-to-exceed compensation amount of $211,145.70. Per the City’s Purchasing Guidelines, the City Manager may approve additional work not-to-exceed 10% of the original contract amount.

Staff recommends the City Council award an Agreement for Maintenance Services with ShelterClean.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed Agreement for Maintenance Services includes $211,145.70 in total compensation. The Agreement includes a three-year term ending June 30, 2027, with two optional one-year extensions. Sufficient funds exist in the 2023- 2025 Operating Budget to cover the costs of the recommended action.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 6/4/2024
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUBJECT:

AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR LAKE FOREST CITYWIDE ELECTRICAL

MAINTENANCE SERVICES
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Award an Agreement for Maintenance Services in the amount of $397,200 to Access Electrical Services, Inc., for Lake Forest Citywide Electrical Maintenance Services.

2. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk to attest, the award of an Agreement for Maintenance Services to Access Electrical Services, Inc., substantially in the form attached.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City utilizes an on-call electrical contractor to provide maintenance and repair services for all the City maintained facilities, parks, medians, parkways, and slopes. The current agreement for electrical maintenance services expires June 30, 2024. There are no additional term extensions remaining on the contract. In accordance with the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, the City initiated a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) process to procure these services. The RFP selection process is based on a contractor’s experience, understanding of the scope of services, proposed personnel, completion of similar projects in a timely manner, and their ability to provide optimal services at an acceptable cost. After completing a competitive process outlined in the City’s Purchasing Guidelines, staff identified Access Electrical Services (“ASL Electric“) as the most qualified contractor for Citywide Electrical Maintenance Services.

Staff recommends the City Council award an Agreement for Maintenance Services to ASL Electric (“Agreement”). The term for the proposed Agreement would include an initial three-year term with two optional one-year extensions at the discretion of the City Council. The proposed Agreement for Citywide Electrical Maintenance Services with ASL Electric would begin July 1, 2024 (Attachment 1). The contract cost is $132,400 annually, with a three-year total contract cost of $397,200. Sufficient funds for the Agreement are included in the 2023-2025 Operating Budget. The Finance Department prepared the Item: 10
180

maintenance services agreement with ASL Electric, which the City Attorney reviewed and approved the agreement as to form.

BACKGROUND:

The City currently provides electrical maintenance services at 31 parks, Civic Center, and at all medians, parkways, and slopes. The current contract for electrical maintenance services includes furnishing all labor, materials, equipment, tools, and incidentals to repair electrical facilities and equipment at these locations as required.

The current agreement with Thomas J. O’Connell dba Lake Forest Electric (“LFE”), for electrical maintenance services expires June 30, 2024. There are no additional term extensions remaining on the contract. In accordance with the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, the City initiated an RFP process to procure these services.

DISCUSSION:

Staff solicited proposals for Citywide Electrical Maintenance Services on March 7, 2024. The City received four proposals on March 29, 2024, from ALS Electric, AMTEK Construction, A D Electric, and Horizon Lighting. A selection committee comprised of the staff listed below reviewed and scored the proposals:
•Director of Public Works/City Engineer
•Public Works Maintenance Manager
•Facility Maintenance Manager
•Recreation Manager
Technical Review and Interview Process
The review process is comprised of three phases: the Technical Review of written proposals, the Qualification Interview phase, and the cost proposal evaluation. The Purchasing Guidelines require the Selection Committee to review all proposals submitted in response to the RFP. Staff reviewed the proposals submitted by ASL Electric, AMTEK Construction, A D Electric, and Horizon Lighting. As summarized in Table 1, staff reviewed the proposals, and three contractors met the minimum required technical criteria and staff therefore invited three to the interview process. Table 2 shows the total score for the interview and cost.

During the qualifications interview, ASL Electric demonstrated their knowledge and experience maintaining electrical components and facilities. Cost proposal scoring is based on the costs for as-needed services. At the conclusion of the interview process, all three firms had the opportunity to submit a last, best, and final cost proposal. None of the three firms submitted a revised cost proposal.

After all scores were received, ASL Electric was the highest ranked and lowest cost firm. Table 3 below describes the final cost proposals.

SUBJECT:

FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT WITH CONVERGINT

TECHNOLOGIES, LLC FOR CCTV MAINTENANCE SERVICES
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Approve the First Amendment to the Agreement for Maintenance Services with Convergint Technologies, LLC for CCTV Maintenance.

2. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk to attest, the First Amendment to the Agreement, substantially in the form attached.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City contracts with Convergint Technologies, LLC (“Convergint”) for CCTV system maintenance across five locations: Civic Center, Lake Forest Sports Park, Etnies Skate Park, El Toro Park, and Heroes Park. The Agreement for Maintenance Services with Convergint (“Agreement”) is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2024 (Attachment 1). The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Convergint (“First Amendment”) would exercise the first one-year optional extension and establish a new term end date of June 30, 2025. The proposed First Amendment would add $45,268 for the cost of an additional year of services, for a new total contract amount of $181,072. The proposed First Amendment to the Agreement with Convergint was prepared by the Finance Department and approved as to form by the City Attorney. There are sufficient funds available in the 2023-2025 Operating Budget for the recommended action.

BACKGROUND:

Prior to June 2021, the City's CCTV systems were managed by three separate vendors. On April 3, 2018, the City Council approved a three-year contract with Convergint for CCTV maintenance at Lake Forest Sports Park and Etnies Skate Park. In January 2020, Schneider Electric installed a new CCTV system at the Civic Center and provided CCTV maintenance support under warranty.

Subsequently, in November 2021, Inter-Pacific Systems implemented new CCTV systems at El Toro and Heroes Park and provided warranty maintenance services.

Item: 11
217

To ensure the efficiency of CCTV system management, staff proposed to consolidate camera maintenance services into a single contract with one vendor.

On June 30, 2021, after a competitive bid process, the City Manager approved an Agreement for Maintenance Services with Convergint for CCTV maintenance at all operational locations in the amount of $135,804 (Attachment 1). The initial term of the Agreement is three years and ends on June 30, 2024. The current agreement includes two optional one-year extensions.

DISCUSSION:

Pursuant to the Civic Center Security Operations Policy and in compliance with California state law which mandates the retention of one year's worth of video footage, the City has prioritized efforts to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of CCTV infrastructure. The City operates CCTV systems at five locations: the Civic Center, Lake Forest Sports Park, Etnies Skate Park, El Toro Park, and Heroes Park. The Convergint Agreement covers maintenance and support for the CCTV systems at all locations. The CCTV maintenance scope of work includes quarterly maintenance services and service request support as detailed below:
•Regular System Checks and Maintenance: Conducted quarterly, these inspections ensure the CCTV system operates efficiently. They can be done on-site or via remote access and include bi-annual cleaning along with adjustments to camera angles and focus.
•Comprehensive Software and Hardware Support: This includes regular updates to Video Management System (VMS) applications, camera firmware, and other critical CCTV software. The service is covered under an all-inclusive contract that handles all associated costs.

The City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines allow for two optional one-year extensions to standard professional consulting services agreements. The proposed First Amendment would exercise the first optional extension to extend the term to June 30, 2025, and add an additional compensation amount of $45,268 to cover the additional year of services (Attachment 2). This annual amount includes a Base Maintenance Cost of $36,658 with up to $8,610 in extra work, subject to City approval.

Table 1 and Table 2 below outline Base Maintenance and Contingency items over a four-year period. The total proposed Base Maintenance and Contingency Cost of services is the same as the total amount for Year 3 under the current Item: 11
218

agreement. Hourly and rental rates for Extra Work would increase as shown in Table 2. These rates would only be deployed if extra work is requested that is not covered under the Base Maintenance scope of services. The increase to hourly rates for extra work is 4.2%.

The vendor performance assessment is used as a guide to determine whether a contract should be amended, renewed, or terminated based on performance in the following categories: performance of scope of services; timeliness; budget performance; and customer service.

Table 3 provides an overall summary of the consultant’s performance during the respective evaluation period. Staff is satisfied with Convergint’s timeliness and very satisfied with all other measures. Based on Convergint’s contract performance, staff recommend approving the First Amendment to the Agreement with Convergint for CCTV maintenance. If approved, the proposed First Amendment would extend the term under the agreement to June 30, 2025, and add $45,268 in compensation, bringing total compensation under the agreement to $181,072. The Finance Department prepared the attached agreement and the City Attorney reviewed and approved it as to form.

Rate increases for a potential future second one-year extension, should the City choose to continue beyond the proposed agreement term, would be limited to the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers in the Los Angeles-Long Beach- Anaheim metropolitan area, as specified in the First Amendment. This ensures the City manages costs effectively while maintaining the quality and continuity of CCTV maintenance services provided by Convergint.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed First Amendment would add $45,268 for the new contract amount of $181,072. Sufficient funds are available in Fiscal Year 2024-25 of the 2023- 2025 Operating Budget.

RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. That the City Council authorize the City Manager to negotiate and enter into an Agreement with the Cal State University Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corp for the provision of Main St. Digital Services

2. Adopt a Resolution Entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE FOREST, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE 2023-2025 OPERATING BUDGET; AMENDING APPROPRIATIONS FOR FISCAL
YEAR 2023-24
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Strategic Economic Investment Program (“SEIP”), approved by the City Council in February 2022, allocated $8,303,350 for economic support programs, with subsequent appropriations totaling $4,335,944 for various initiatives. The 2023 Business/Resident Satisfaction Survey revealed that businesses seek improved marketing strategies and website updates to boost profitability. The 2023-2030 Strategic Plan introduced an initiative to reformulate the City's SEIP under Strategic Plan Initiative #23 - SEIP 2.0.

In February 2024, the City Council approved setting aside $50,000 from SEIP to fund potential Small Business Development Center (“SBDC”) programs, as well as consolidating budgets for the Restaurant Industry and Other Impacted Industry Assistance categories. The SBDC offers tailored services and consulting to foster small business growth and success.

The proposed Main St. Digital Program aims to assist businesses in establishing a digital presence. Eligible businesses would receive virtual training and one-on- one consulting over four weeks. Upon completion, businesses meeting requirements would receive $1,000 grants for digital advertising campaigns.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the budget allocation to the Main St.

Digital Program in the amount of $50,000 (Attachment 1) and authorize the City Item: 12

Manager to negotiate and enter into an Agreement with Cal State University (“CSU”) Fullerton Auxiliary Services Corp (“ASC”) (Attachment 2) for the Main St.

Digital Program.

BACKGROUND:

SEIP
On February 15, 2022, the City Council approved the SEIP. The SEIP established a budget for economic development programs to help local businesses recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. It assigns $8,303,350 in economic support funds to three business types: restaurants, hotels, and other businesses impacted by COVID-19.

The initial allocations of SEIP funds by category can be seen in Table 1 below.

Table 1: SEIP Business Support Allocations
Category Allocation
Restaurant Industry Assistance $3,803,350
Hotel Industry Assistance $2,500,000
Other Impacted Industry Assistance $2,000,000
Total Business Support $8,303,350
Following the establishment of SEIP, the City Council Audit Committee and staff began formulating economic development programs for City Council consideration. Table 2 outlines the funds that have been appropriated for SEIP related programming to date.

Business/Resident Satisfaction Survey and Strategic Plan Results from the 2023 Business/Resident Satisfaction Survey indicate more than half of the surveyed businesses expressed a desire to enhance their profitability through improved marketing and advertising strategies. Additionally, a similar proportion of respondents highlighted the importance of updating their business websites to attract a broader customer base. Over 40% of businesses expressed their anticipation for growth. Addressing this has become a priority for the enhancement of our community and economic growth.

The updated 2023-2030 Strategic Plan included an initiative to develop and present a plan to reformulate the City’s SEIP, Strategic Plan Initiative #23 – SEIP

2.0. This initiative aims to expand and diversify the reach of SEIP funding within the business community.

SEIP Reformulation
On February 6, 2024, staff presented potential programming for the reformulation of the City’s SEIP. The City Council approved setting aside $50,000 from SEIP to fund potential SBDC programs. The City Council also approved combining the budgets for the Restaurant Industry Assistance and Other Impacted Industry Assistance categories. Table 3 outlines the remaining funds between the combined categories.

Table 3: Combined Categories’ Remaining Funds
Category Allocation Appropriated
Funds
Remaining
Funds
Restaurant Industry and
Other Impacted Industry
Assistance
$5,803,350 $4,900,944 $902,406
As demonstrated by Table 3, there are sufficient funds remaining in the combined categories to fund the $50,000 set aside for SBDC programs. During the February 6 meeting, the City Council directed staff to return at a later date to present potential program guidelines of an SBDC program.

SBDC
The SBDC, supported by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”), serves as a resource for entrepreneurs and small business owners throughout the United States. Operating in partnership with universities, colleges, state economic development agencies, and private sector organizations, the SBDC offers a diverse array of services tailored to address the unique needs of small businesses at every stage of development. From business plan development and Item: 12
251

market research to financial management guidance and assistance with loan applications, the SBDC provides invaluable support to foster growth and success.

The SBDC has experienced business advisors who offer free or low-cost consulting services. The advisors, equipped with expertise in various aspects of business management, serve as mentors to entrepreneurs, guiding them to navigate challenges, capitalize on opportunities, and ensure compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Through accessible resources, training, and consulting services, the SBDC empowers small businesses, drives economic development, and contributes to vibrant and resilient communities nationwide.

SBDC representatives are employees under the CSU Fullerton ASC.

Main St. Digital
The SBDC offers the Main St. Digital Program, a virtual training program that typically takes place over four weeks and aims to assist brick-and-mortar retail businesses with creating a digital presence for their business. All sessions take place in a group format and are coupled with individual one-on-one consulting with an SBDC consultant.

There are certain eligibility requirements set by the SBDC and the partnering City, that a business must meet to participate in the program. The program would offer a grant from the City to fund participating businesses’ paid online advertising.

City of Tustin’s Main St. Digital Program
In June of 2023, the City of Tustin offered the Main St. Digital Program. Its program was open to commercial businesses, home-based businesses, and nonprofits that had a physical location in Tustin and had between two to twenty- five full-time equivalent employees. Cannabis-related businesses, gambling facilities, adult entertainment businesses, massage parlors, largely cash-based businesses, and residential or real estate projects including short-term rental operators were not considered eligible to participate. Participants were also required to have an active Tustin business license.

Tustin received thirty-one participants who met all eligibility requirements. The training consisted of four online courses that covered topics such as how to set- up an online profile through Google, how to reach out to customers for a Google review, how to create and send Facebook or Instagram posts, and how to use paid and non-paid advertising to generate leads that turn into sales. The group- format training also included one-on-one consulting with an SBDC consultant.

Item: 12
252

Businesses who submitted all required documentation and attended all classes received a $1,000 grant from the City. The City awarded grant funds in a single disbursement and required that businesses spend the money on a digital/online paid advertising campaign no later than two months following the program start.

Funds that were not spent by the deadline were required to be returned to the City. To ensure compliance with the spending requirements, Tustin required the businesses to maintain documentation to evidence the use of Grant Funds if the City required evaluation.

The program also required the business to continue to work one-on-one with an SBDC consultant for twelve months following the program’s end. If contacted by the City or SBDC, all awardees were required to update the City on their business and if additional employees have been hired or employees retained. A twelve-month report was created by the SBDC and the City of Tustin to document the success of the program.

DISCUSSION:

Staff, in collaboration with the SBDC and utilizing the City of Tustin’s program as a template, developed guidelines for the proposed City of Lake Forest Main St.

Digital Program.

Eligibility and Application Submission
Staff recommend opening the potential Main St. Digital Program to a maximum of thirty-five businesses. Commercial businesses, home-based businesses, and nonprofits that have a physical location in Lake Forest would be eligible to participate. The businesses must employ between two to twenty-five full-time equivalent employees. Staff also recommend requiring a current business registration form be on file with the City and that the business comply with any City permit/license requirements applicable to the business.

The SBDC would be responsible for hosting the application portal and for receiving all applications. The SBDC would also be responsible for vetting the applications, ensuring they meet eligibility requirements. The City would provide input on applications if necessary. Applications would be approved on a first- come first-serve basis. If the City anticipates a large influx of applications, a lottery would be implemented.

Program
The program would take place in a group format and be conducted virtually over the course of four weeks. The program would cover topics that assist businesses with “Creating a Digital Presence”. Each session would also include one-on-one Item: 12
253

consultation with an SBDC consultant. The SBDC would work with each client throughout the duration of the program and beyond. Every quarter, the SBDC would track and measure the success of each business as it deploys its marketing campaigns. The SBDC would track changes in sales, jobs created, and/or increases in customer traffic.

If contacted by the City or SBDC, all awardees would be required to update the City on their business. A twelve-month report would be created by the SBDC and the City to document the success of the program. By accepting the grant, the business agrees to comply with City information requests that may include the use of photos or business logos.

Grants
Staff recommend offering $1,000 grants to thirty-five eligible businesses. Funds would be distributed in a single disbursement to all businesses that meet the requirements following the completion of the program. The businesses would be required to spend the money on a digital/online paid advertising campaign no later than two months following the program’s end. Funds that were not spent by the deadline would be required to be returned to the City. To ensure compliance with the spending requirements, the City would mandate that businesses maintain documentation to evidence the use of Grant Funds to be presented to the City upon request.

Funding
The City Council approved setting aside $50,000 to fund SBDC programs. Table 4 below outlines the potential disbursement of funds in relation to the implementation of the presented program.

Table 4: Allocation of funds for Main St. Digital Program Services Item Funding Amount
Administration Cost $15,000
Grant Cost $35,000
Total $50,000
$15,000 would be allocated toward an administrative fee for the SBDC to implement the program. $35,000 would cover $1,000 grants for thirty-five participating businesses.

Implementation
The City would need to enter into an Agreement with the CSU ASC for the provision of services described in this report. The proposed draft agreement is Item: 12
254

attached for the City Council’s review. The City Attorney’s Office reviewed the ASC template agreement in its entirety and made edits to the agreement. Upon approval from the City Council, the City Manager, in working with the City Attorney’s Office, would work with the ASC to finalize and execute the agreement.

The $15,000 administrative fee would fund the SBDC’s implementation of the program. The fee would cover the following services:

1. The setup of an online application;

2. The setup of a webpage on the SBDC website, featuring program guidelines and the application;

3. The receiving and vetting of applications prior to City approval;

4. The facilitation of an internal lottery for selecting applicants if necessary;

5. The creation of Datarooms for selected awardees to submit sensitive documentation securely prior to City finalization;

6. The hosting of a 4-week training program;

7. The reporting of attendance to promote compliance with the program guidelines;

8. The provision of awardees with 1:1 consulting during and after the program.

These services are provided by the SBDC, with input from the City, minimizing staff time and resources required from the City to run the program. The City reviews business eligibility (attendance verified by the SBDC) and would initialize grant payment simultaneous with the Main Street Digital trainings. This ensures that payments can be given to awardees in a timely manner. Following the successful completion of the Main Street Digital Program, awardees would be invited to a City Council meeting and presented with certificates.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the budget allocation to the Main St.

Digital Program in the amount of $50,000 and authorize the City Manager to negotiate and enter into an Agreement with CSU Fullerton ASC for the Main St.

Digital Program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Authorizing the attached Resolution would appropriate $50,000 to the City’s General Fund in the 2023-25 Operating Budget to cover the costs of the proposed Main St. Digital Program with ASC.

SUBJECT:

AWARD AGREEMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL SOLID WASTE

COLLECTION SERVICES
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

1. Approve Agreement for the Collection, Transportation, Processing, and Diversion of Recyclable Materials, Food Scraps, Yard Trimmings, Construction and Demolition Debris and Other Materials, and for the Collection, Transportation, and Disposal of Municipal Solid Waste to CR&R, Incorporated.

2. Authorize the Mayor to sign, and the City Clerk to attest, the Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement substantially in the form attached.

3. Direct staff to set a public hearing to adopt proposed rates in accordance with Proposition 218
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The current Franchise Agreement for solid waste services expires on June 30, 2025. The Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills worked together under a Memorandum of Understanding to jointly procure a new Agreement for the Collection, Transportation, Processing and Diversion of Recyclable Materials, Food Scraps, Yard Trimmings, Construction and Demolition Debris and Other Materials and for the Collection, Transportation and Disposal of Municipal Solid Waste ("Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement"). An Ad Hoc Committee consisting of two City Council members and staff from each city, along with a professional solid waste consultant met to advise staff throughout the procurement process. The Lake Forest City Council approved a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) and authorized staff to solicit proposals on November 7, 2023.

The Laguna Hills City Council approved the same RFP on December 12, 2023.

Seven solid waste haulers qualified to submit proposals by attending the mandatory pre-submittal meeting. CR&R, Inc. (“CR&R”) and Valley Vista Services (“Valley Vista”) submitted proposals on March 1, 2024. Both proposers submitted comprehensive and well-thought-out proposals. After a thorough analysis of both proposals, the main difference between the two proposals was Item: 13
279

5 6
evident in the cost analysis. CR&R proposed rates that were $7.3 million per year less than those proposed by Valley Vista. In addition, Valley Vista proposed using third party facilities. In comparison, CR&R owns its facilities which allows more control and potentially more operational and cost efficiencies.

The Ad Hoc Committee recommends awarding a Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement to CR&R, Inc for an initial term of eight years with two one-year extensions that may be earned by the hauler if certain performance goals are met. Staff anticipates the City of Laguna Hills will consider the award of the Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement at its June 25, 2024, City Council meeting.

BACKGROUND:

After a competitive selection process, on March 4, 2014, the City Council awarded a Franchise Agreement to CR&R Environmental Services, Inc. (“CR&R”) for the collection, transportation, processing, and diversion of recyclable materials and municipal solid waste (“Franchise Agreement”). The original term of the Franchise Agreement was May 1, 2014, through April 30, 2022, and included two one-year extensions that CR&R could earn by meeting certain performance goals designed to increase the City’s waste diversion from landfills. On February 21, 2017, the City Council awarded the first one-year extension to the Franchise Agreement which extended the term to April 30, 2023.

On April 20, 2021, the City Council approved the First Amendment which extended the Franchise Agreement to June 30, 2024, and added SB 1383 requirements to the scope of work. On January 2, 2024, the City Council approved the Second Amendment to the Franchise Agreement thereby extending the term to June 30, 2025. The City of Laguna Hills holds a franchise agreement for similar solid waste services that also expires on June 30, 2025.

On September 20, 2021, the Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) for the purpose of sharing costs while developing procurement documents for the selection of a solid waste and recycling services provider. On February 1, 2022, after a joint selection process with Laguna Hills, the City Council awarded a professional consultant services agreement to EcoNomics, Inc. (“EcoNomics”) to provide consulting services during the solid waste agreement procurement process. The City of Lake Forest is the lead agency for the project. As such, Lake Forest requests and collects payment from the City of Laguna Hills for 50% of the consultant’s fees.

On April 19, 2022, the Lake Forest City Council created a Solid Waste Procurement Ad-Hoc Committee (“Committee”) and appointed then-Mayor Robert Pequeno and then-Mayor Pro Tem Doug Cirbo to the Committee. On April 26, 2022, the City of Laguna Hills City Council appointed City Item: 13
280

5 6
Councilmembers Don Caskey and Erica Pezold to serve on the Committee. The Committee also includes the City Managers and staff from both cities.

On April 18, 2023, the Lake Forest City Council approved the First Amendment to the MOU between the City of Laguna Hills and the City of Lake Forest to include the procurement, selection, and recommendation of a single solid waste hauler for the two cities. As part of the updated terms of the MOU, each city would have a separate agreement for services at the end of the joint procurement.

DISCUSSION:

The current solid waste and recycling franchise agreements for the Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills are set to expire on June 30, 2025. For the purposes of sharing costs and resources, the Cities entered into an MOU to procure new solid waste agreements jointly. With the assistance of a professional solid waste consultant, EcoNomics, the Committee, met 6 times in the summer and fall of 2023 to make recommendations for a Request for Proposals (“RFP”). The Lake Forest City Council approved the RFP and directed staff to solicit proposals on November 7, 2023, and the Laguna Hills City Council approved the RFP and directed staff to solicit proposals on December 12, 2023.

Cost Evaluation
The Cost Evaluation showed the most significant difference. To evaluate the total cost of each proposer’s rates, the rates submitted were multiplied by the current services, accounting for the number of customers, collection frequency, and sizes of carts, bins, and roll off boxes to calculate the projected rate revenues. As shown in Table 3 below, the CR&R proposal is $7.35 million less per year and over a potential 10-year agreement would be $73.5 million less to the rate payers for both cities. Specifically for the City of Lake Forest, the CR&R cost to ratepayers is $5.12 million less than the Valley Vista proposal annually and $51.2 million less over a 10-year agreement.

Lake Forest $16.14 $20.95 $4.81
Laguna Hills $6.78 $8.87 $2.09Separate Proposal
Total $22.92 $29.82 $6.90
The cost evaluation also revealed cost savings for rate payers resulting from the joint procurement process and shared routes available in the RFP. Each proposer submitted rates based on the proposer being awarded agreements in both cities and rates based on the proposer being awarded an agreement in only one of the cities. Both proposers identified considerable cost savings achieved through cross-city efficiencies if awarded agreements in both cities, including reduced capital, personnel, and operational costs. If the agreements were awarded separately, CR&R’s proposed costs are $22.92 million compared to a joint award of agreements at a cost of $22.61 million. This is a savings to ratepayers of $314,000 per year and $3.14 million over a potential 10-year agreement.

The proposed agreement includes rate structures that apply if both the Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills award a Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement to CR&R and if only one City awards it. The single City rates would also be utilized if, at any time during the term, either City decides to terminate its agreement with CR&R.

Residential Rates
The most common residential trash cart in the City of Lake Forest is the 95- gallon (“gal”) cart. CR&R proposed an 8.8% increase in rates and Valley Vista Item: 13

proposed a 25.4% increase. This equates to a $2.03 per month increase proposed by CR&R and a $5.84 per month increase proposed by Valley Vista.

Commercial Rates
The proposals included rates for commercial and multi-family services. There are many combinations that the hauler may provide depending on the commercial customer’s needs. The most common commercial container used is the 3 cubic yard (“cy”) Municipal Solid Waste (“MSW”) bin. Table 5 compares current rates to the proposals provided by CR&R and Valley Vista. When averaging the six rates proposed for the 3-cy bin, CR&R’s proposal reflects a 23% rate increase compared to Valley Vista’s 49% increase.

and commercial services are lower than those proposed by Valley Vista. CR&R offered the same residential rates for both cities. These rates place both cities among the twelve cities with the lowest rates in Orange County based on known and projected rates for other cities.

Cart Replacement
The RFP included the provision of new carts for residential customers. The carts would be a solid color, both lid and body, in compliance with SB 1383. The carts residents currently use have SB 1383 compliant lids but may have a body color different than the lid. Most residents have older carts, some of which exceed the 8-year anticipated useful life. It was noted at previous City Council meetings that residents in new neighborhoods have newer carts that may not need to be replaced. If desired, City Council may direct staff to request CR&R offer an opt- out option for residents who have newer carts that are SB 1383 compliant. This potential “opt-out” would not include an account credit as the cost of the new carts are included in the rate structure.

As part of the implementation of the new Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement, CR&R will send postcards to residents to choose the size carts they wish to have delivered. This postcard could include an opt-out option. Staff would not recommend this option because of the administrative burden on CR&R to track those who wish to opt-out and resulting inconsistent cart colors. However, this potential option may address a concern presented in previous City Council meetings and offers convenience to residential rate payers that do not wish to exchange their carts.

Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff and EcoNomics presented the following findings to the Ad Hoc Committee on May 22, 2024:
•Valley Vista presented a thorough and thoughtful proposal. Its references revealed that Valley Vista provides excellent service to its customers. The firm proposed a good approach to provide services to the Cities. However, the cost to establish services for the Cities appears to have added additional expenses to its proposals.
•CR&R’s cost and rate advantage was significant and was consistent across all service sectors. The costs and rates included in CR&R’s proposal versus Valley Vista’s proposal resulted in an annual cost advantage of $5.12 million for the ratepayers of Lake Forest and $7.36 million for both cities combined.

•CR&R owns its proposed processing and collection infrastructure, which allows CR&R more control and potentially more operational and cost efficiencies related to processing of Municipal Solid Waste, recyclables, organics and C&D materials.
•CR&R provided a thorough implementation plan. The plan includes new trucks, carts, and bins in addition to the use of two medium duty electric box trucks.
•CR&R’s proposal is well thought out and embodies a great deal of local knowledge of the Cities of Lake Forest’s and Laguna Hills’ demographics and current conditions.
•The CR&R Recycling Coordinators assigned to the Cities are well-qualified and are currently serving as the Recycling Coordinators for the Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills. CR&R also proposed assigning an additional Recycling Coordinator to help both City’s during the first two years of the Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement term.

At the conclusion of the meeting, all members of the Ad Hoc Committee agreed with the findings and recommended awarding agreements with CR&R for the provision of solid waste and recycling services in each of the cities.

The Ad Hoc Committee members, staff, and the consultant recommend the City Council award an Agreement for the Collection, Transportation, Processing and Diversion of Recyclable Materials, Food Scraps, Yard Trimming, Construction and Demolition Debris and Other Material and for the Collection, Transportation and Disposal of Municipal Solid Waste to CR&R, Inc. (Attachment 2). The initial Agreement term would be for a period of eight years beginning July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2033 with two additional one-year extensions based on CR&R achieving performance related to contamination as outlined in the Agreement.

The proposed Agreement was prepared by EcoNomics’ attorney and the City Attorney’s Offices from the Cities of Lake Forest and Laguna Hills. Staff also recommends the City Council direct staff to set a public hearing to adopt the new rates in accordance with Proposition 218. The City of Laguna Hills will consider the Agreement at a future City Council meeting in June 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

In lieu of franchise fees, CR&R will pay $118,426.50 per month for the City’s regulatory compliance and vehicle impact costs beginning July 1, 2025.

Additionally, CR&R will reimburse $263,097.50 to the City of Lake Forest and Item: 13
