These amenities include a wide variety of housing stock, from single-family homes to townhomes and apartments; walkability to shopping, dining, and entertainment; recreational opportunities such as green space and walking paths; and much more. Parkway Village would also feature the latest in smart city technology, designed to ensure optimal convenience, safety and connectivity. 8 2

The City’s temporary idle cash, those funds that are not immediately needed to pay current bills and not governed by bond indentures or bond resolutions, is invested in accordance with the City’s 8 2
4 adopted Investment Policy. This policy is reviewed regularly by the City Council, with the latest policy adopted February 13, 2018, by Resolution No. 18-06.
The City's cash management system is designed to accurately monitor and forecast expenditures and revenues, thus enabling the City to invest funds to the fullest extent possible within the guidelines of this Investment Policy. The City attempts to achieve the highest yield obtainable through a diversified portfolio only after meeting the criteria established for safety and liquidity in that order. The principal investment objectives of the City are:
1. Preservation of capital and protection of investment principal;
2. Maintenance of sufficient liquidity to meet anticipated cash flows;
3. Attainment of a market rate of return;
4. Diversification to avoid incurring unreasonable market risks, and;
5. Compliance with the City’s Municipal Code and with all applicable City resolutions, California statutes and Federal regulations.
The City’s portfolio is a short-term and intermediate-term fixed income portfolio. The maximum maturity of any investment is 5 years, with consideration of anticipated cash flow requirements and known future liabilities. The City contracts with an investment advisory service (Insight Investment) to assist in the effort to maximize the returns of the City portfolio. The City’s investments include publicly traded Treasury notes, Treasury Bills, Federal Agency Investments, Time Deposits, and Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) under the auspices of the State Treasurer for investment. Funds invested in LAIF are available within 24 hours, and other investments are available upon maturity at full face value. These investments enable the City to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months, as required by state law.
The City’s investment procedures are governed by Sections 53600 et. seq. of the California Government Code. Additional requirements have been placed on the City’s authorized investments by the Investment Policy (a copy is available in the Finance Department or from the City Clerk), and all investments listed on the attached report adhere to these requirements.

CITY OF LANCASTER
QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM
1.0 INTRODUCTION
The City of Lancaster (City) Quality Assurance Program (QAP) is a sampling and testing program that will provide assurance that the materials and workmanship incorporated in each public works construction project are in conformance with the contract specifications. The three elements of a Quality Assurance Program are Acceptance Testing (AT), Independent Assurance Program (IAP), and Testing of Manufactured Materials.
Acceptance Testing (AT) is comprised of procedures for regular testing of materials entering a construction project to verify that the materials, or products, comply with contract specifications or standards. The IAP is comprised of procedures to verify that acceptance testing is performed correctly by verifying equipment calibration, witnessing sampling and testing by acceptance tester, and by compari ng the test results between testers. The Testing of Manufactured Materials facilitates the review and acceptance of manufactured and prefabricated materials either by source inspection, job site inspection, or Certificate of Compliance. This QAP, as approv ed by the Director of Public Works, meets Caltrans requirements for all Federally funded National Highway System (NHS) and non-NHS transportation projects.
Until such time the City employs its own in -house quality assurance personnel and laboratory facilities, it shall contract with other qualified local Agencies or qualified private consulting laboratories, which must be approved for such work as described later in this document. Materials testing and sampling costs may be reimbursable through the construction engineering phase of a project. Local Programs Procedures will apply.
City construction projects shall be in general compliance with the currently adopted Caltrans Standard Specifications, unless otherwise specified in the plans and specifications. Laboratories are required to comply with this QAP when contracted to provide inspection and/or materials testing services on City administered Federally funded projects. All materials provisions that apply to the consulting laboratory shall apply to the subcontracted Consultant as well.
The QAP for all local Agency projects shall include Acceptance Tests (AT). AT results shall be used to determine the quality and acceptability of materials and workmanship incorporated into the project.
2.0 GENERAL PROCEDURES
The following criteria for sampling and testing shall be applied for both non-NHS and NHS projects:
2.1 Preliminary Tests
2.1.1 Preliminary Tests are tests prior to award of a contract. Construction personnel rarely sample for Preliminary Tests. Such tests are for design purposes or to provide data for the
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
"Materials Information" package for prospective bidders. Samples and testing on potential sources sampled after award of the contract are typically called "Initial Samples and Tests," or "Process Control Samples and Tests." Normally, these samples and tests are performed on material proposed for use in the work by the Contractor to determine the ability of a material or product to meet specifications or to indicate to the Co ntractor the extent of processing and control required to produce a material that meets specifications.
2.2 Acceptance Sampling and Testing
2.2.1 Tests of materials entering the work are called "Acceptance Tests" (AT). Acceptance sampling and testing of materials or work should start the first day a construction material is placed or work is performed. To obtain the greatest benefit, testing should be performed as soon as possible after samples are taken or segments of work are completed. This provides early test data for the Engineer's and Contractor's guidance.
2.2.2 The Engineer shall maintain a material and testing "Summary Log" for each material requiring multiple sampling and testing as defined in Exhibit “A” of this document. The "Summary Log" shall include appropriate date, station location, depth of test sample, approximate quantity of material represented by the test sample, test result, and tester.
Failing test results will require cross-referencing of the retest to the initial failing test result by a notation on each report.
2.2.3 Representative samples of all materials entering into the work shall be sampled at the location specified in the standard specifications, special provisions or as directed by the Engineer.
2.3 Source Inspection
2.3.1 Source Inspection is acceptance testing of manufactured and prefabricated materials at a location other than the job site. Unless otherwise specified, inspection is required at the source for such typical materials and fabricated items as bituminous paving mixtures, structural concrete, metal fabrication, metal casting, welding, concrete pipe manufacture, protective coating application, and similar shop or plant operations.
2.4 Reporting Test Results
2.4.1 The following are goals for reporting material tests results to the Engineer:
A. When the aggregate is sampled at the material plant, test results for Sieve Analysis, Sand Equivalent and Cleanness Value should be submitted to the Engineer within 24 hours after sampling.
B. When materials are sampled at the job site, test results for compaction and maximum density should be submitted to the Engineer within 24 hours after sampling.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
C. When soils and aggregates are sampled at the job site, test results for Sieve Analysis, Sand Equivalent and Cleanness Value should be submitted to the Engineer within 72 hours after sampling.
D. When soils and aggregates are sampled at the job site, test results for "R" Value and asphalt concrete extraction should be submitted to the Engineer within 72 hours after sampling.
2.4.2 When sampling products such as Portland Cement Concrete (PCC), cement -treated base (CTB), asphalt concrete (AC), and other such materials, the time of such sampling shall be varied with respect to the time of day insofar as is possible, in order to avoid a predictable sampling routine. The reporting of AT test results, for tests not performed by the Engineer’s staff, shall be done on an expedited basis, such as by fax or telephone, followed up with an e- mailed copy.
2.4.3 The reporting of acceptance test results shall be done on an expedited basis, such as by fax or telephone, followed up with an e-mailed copy.
2.5 Independent Assurance Program
2.5.1 The primary purpose of the Independent Assurance Program is to:
A. Verify that project sampling and testing materials are performed correctly (i.e., the tester).
B. Verify certification and qualifications of Acceptance testers.
C. Ensure that equipment is properly calibrated.
3.0 PUBLIC WORKS PROJECTS AND NON-NATIONAL HIGHWAY SYSTEM PROJECTS All public works and Federal-Aid projects off the National Highway System shall abide by the following procedures:
3.1 Correlation Testing Program
3.1.1 The laboratory utilized for acceptance testing must be a participant in one or more of the following Caltrans’ approved (Caltrans Office of Materials, Engineering and Testing Services) correlation testing programs:
A. The AASHTO Materials Reference Laboratory (AMRL)
B. Cement and Concrete Reference Laboratory (CCRL)
C. Caltrans’ own Reference Samples Program (RSP)
The Contractor shall provide proof of this association in a submitted bid proposal.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
3.2 Qualifying Laboratories
3.2.1 A private consulting laboratory may be permitted to subcontract materials testing provided the test results are received by the Engineer within 7 days after materials are sampled. The subcontractor must be approved by the local Agency, and must be a participant in an approved correlation testing program. All materials provisions that apply to the consulting laboratory shall apply to the subcontracted Consultant.
3.2.2 Any laboratory providing testing services for projects located in California (except for products manufactured out of state) shall be under the responsible engineering management of a California registered Professional Engineer with experience in inspection and testing of construction materials. The Engineer shall certify the results of all tests performed by laboratory personnel under his supervision.
3.2.3 The Contractor shall not select or exercise any authority over the consulting laboratory.
3.3 Sampling and Testing Materials
3.3.1 The City will commonly hire a Consultant to perform sampling and testing of materials, however, the following are available options for testing:
A. Laboratory operated by another local Agency meeting the qualifications of this QAP.
B. Private Consultant laboratory meeting the requirements of this QAP.
C. Require a Certificate of Compliance from the supplier in lieu of testing manufactured products.
3.4 Certification of Personnel
3.4.1 Any laboratory providing testing services for projects located in California (except for products manufactured out of state) shall be under the responsible engineering management of a California registered Professional Engineer with experience in inspection and testing of construction materials.
3.4.2 This Engineer shall individually certify personnel upon receiving evidence of training, experience, and/or certification by a non-Caltrans organization such as the “National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies” (NICET). This certification is required for all samplers and testers. Individual Acceptance Testers with a current “Certificate of Proficiency for an Acceptance Tester” issued by Caltrans are accepted as valid Acceptance Testers.
3.4.3 A copy of each person’s Certificate of Proficiency is to be on file in both contracted laboratories’ and the City Engineer’s project files.
3.4.4 Acceptance testers without valid identification for a specific test and/or sampling, so ordered to perform, shall not be allowed to perform that specific sampling and/or testing.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
3.5 Laboratory Equipment Calibration Requirements
3.5.1 All laboratories shall maintain their laboratory testing equipment, at a minimum, in accordance with Section 2.4.2.2 of the Caltrans Independent Assurance Manual.
3.5.2 Local Agencies and/or private Consultants electing to use nuclear test equipment shall calibrate nuclear gauges on Caltrans’ standard density blocks. Calibration arrangements should be made by contacting a Caltrans authorized 3 rd party calibrator, a Caltrans Independent Assurance Sampler and Tester, or a Caltrans Radiation Safety officer. A minimum of three (3) working days’ advance notice is required for nuclear gauge calibration.
3.6 Manufactured and Assembled Materials
3.6.1 The City may waive material testing requirements and permit the use of certain manufactured products, materials or assemblies that are accompanied by a Certificate of Compliance, provided these products, materials or assemblies do not involve structural integrity or public safety. The manufacturer of the products, materials or assemblies shall sign the Certificate of Compliance and state the included materials and workmanship conform, in all respects, to the project specifications for the material.
3.7 Certificate of Compliance
3.7.1 Acceptance of manufactured and prefabricated structural materials shall be based on either a Certificate of Compliance and/or source inspection by the City or its qualified Consultant.
Source inspection is acceptance testing of manufactured and prefabricated materials at locations other than the job site. The certified material lot number and project number shall be clearly identified on the certificate and on lot tags affixed or stenciled to the released materials. All materials accepted on the basis of a signed Certificate of Compliance shall be noted by project inspectors on daily inspection reports and laboratory releases.
3.7.2 The contract documents shall specify which materials require a Certificate of Compliance.
In addition to the specifications, see listing of materials typically accepted by a Certificate of Compliance for projects advertised using Caltrans Standard Specifications, most current edition, for reference.
3.7.3 Manufactured products, materials or assemblies used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance may be sampled again at the job site and tested at any time during the term of the contract. Items found not in conformance with contract requirements shall be subject to rejection whether in place or not.
3.7.4 It shall be the responsibility of the Contractor to protect and ensure the integrity of materials, products and assemblies upon delivery to the project site.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
3.8 Performing Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing
3.8.1 The City may utilize an individually qualified local Agency or private Consultant testers to perform the work. Private Consultant testers used to perform Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing shall be free of conflicts of interest and shall not be performing the acceptance testing for the Contractor under contract for the given Federal-aid project.
3.8.2 It shall be at the discretion of the Engineer as to the need for and the extent of Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing.
3.8.3 Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing is to be done in a manner that shall avoid needless duplication.
3.9 Frequency of the Testing
3.9.1 The Frequency of testing is noted in Exhibit “A” of this document and provides for sampling and testing as required for various materials and products. Close adherence to the sample size requirement avoids the unnecessary delay and expense of obtaining supplementary samples to complete the tests.
3.9.2 The frequency of sampling is intended as a guide under normal conditions. Material well within specifications and uniform in character may result in less frequent sampling and testing, whereas borderline materials may need an incre ase in the frequency of testing to assure specification compliance. Materials supplied from reliable sources and proven by frequent testing to be of uniform high quality may subsequently receive less sampling and testing than indicated in the frequency testing tables. However, any deviation from the prescribed frequency must be noted and explained in the material testing records. When materials are being furnished intermittently, with interruptions of several days or weeks, the frequency of sampling and testing should be increased to assure that specification materials are being incorporated into the work.
3.9.3 Whenever failures occur, sufficient additional acceptance tests should be taken to isolate the affected work. Documentation of the results of such additional tests shall be included in the records, including a description of the corrective measures taken.
3.9.4 Relatively minor quantities of construction materials may be accepted without testing provided acceptance conforms to the conditions stated below. Generally, this provides for accepting minor quantities of materials from a commercial source that is known to be a supplier of specification material.
3.9.5 The Engineer, on the basis of a visual examination, may accept minor quantities of materials without testing, provided the source of the supplies has recently furnished similar materials found to be satisfactory using Caltrans sampling and testing requirements.
3.9.6 Acceptance of a product may be established on the basis of certification by the manufacturer or supplier that the material furnished complies with all specification requirements.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
3.9.7 Documentation for acceptance of material as described above must be provided and included in the project records. The documentation should include statements in the project inspector's reports that clearly indicate conditions under which the material was accepted.
4. 0 NATIONAL AND STATE HIGHWAY SYSTEM PROJECTS
The City shall employ the following procedures for Federal-aid projects involving NHS and SHS roads:
4.1 Correlation Testing Program

These personnel shall possess a current "Certificate of Proficiency for an Acceptance Tester," (TL-0111) (old Form HC-I) (Exhibit I6- D) which is valid in all districts. This certificate is required for all samplers and testers, including Consulting laboratory employees and employees of sub-contracted laboratories.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
4.3.2 The Caltrans District Materials Engineer and/or Caltrans Independent Assurance Engineer shall individually certify personnel of local Agencies and Consultant employees upon receiving evidence of training, experience and/or certification by an authorized, non -Caltrans organization such as the "National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies" (NICET).
4.3.3 A copy of each person's Certificate of Proficiency is to be on file in both the District Materials Laboratory’s and the City Engineer's project files. The TL-0111 form lists the sampling and testing which the individual is authorized to perform.
4.3.4 A person possessing the TL -0111 Certification issued on the basis of a certification from NICET or other organizations recognized by Caltrans, if observed by qualified personnel, not to be performing materials sampling and testing in accordance with applicable test methods, shall have his or her T-0111 certification withdrawn or modified for the particular test method observed to have been incorrectly performed.
4.3.5 During witness and split sample testing, acceptance testers should carry adequate identification so Independent Assurance sampling and testing personnel can verify certification. Acceptance testers without valid identification shall not be allowed to perform sampling and testing.
4.3.6 A person whose certification has been withdrawn for a particular test method may have the certification revalidated upon demonstration that deficiencies have been eliminated to the satisfaction of the Caltrans District Materials Engineer.
4.3.7 In cases of extreme emergency, sampling and testing may be performed by someone not certified. The Engineer is to assure himself or herself of the person's competency and every effort should be made to obtain a certified person as soon as possible. These occasions should be limited to unforeseen circumstances. Prior arrangements shall be made to have certified personnel available for foreseeable occasions such as vacation, compensating time off, rotation, or separation.
4.4 Laboratory Equipment Calibration Requirements
4.4.1 The laboratory utilized for acceptance testing shall calibrate all field and laboratory equipment prior to use on construction projects and re -calibrate as frequently as required per Section
2.4.2.2 of the Caltrans Independent Assurance Manual. The maximum interval between calibrations is one year.
4.4.2 The consulting laboratory, including any sub -consulting laboratory, shall provide written evidence of current calibration to the City prior to entering any contractual agreement to perform acceptance testing. In addition, the consulting laboratory, including any sub- consulting laboratory, shall re-calibrate at the request of the Engineer. All calibration evidence shall be provided to the Caltrans District Materials Engineer upon request.
4.4.3 Calibration of test equipment shall conform to Section 8-03, "Field Tests," of the Caltrans Construction Manual.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
4.4.4 When nuclear test equipment is used to determine soil, aggregate or asphalt concrete compaction, such equipment shall be calibrated on Caltrans' standard density blocks.
Calibration arrangements should be made by contacting a Caltrans authorized 3 rd party calibrator, a Caltrans Independent Assurance Sampler and Tester, or a Caltrans Radiation Safety officer. A minimum of 3 working days advance notice is required for nuclear gage calibration. Nuclear gages not calibrated on Caltrans' standard density blocks shall not be accepted. Specified calibration tables for each device shall be used for all State and Federally- funded contracts on the NHS. All nuclear gage compaction tests conducted without Caltrans' calibration tables shall be reported "Unacceptable" by Caltrans' IA personnel authorized 3 rd party calibrator.
4.4.5 Upon proper calibration, a decal shall be firmly affixed to each piece of calibrated equipment.
Decal type and required information are specified on page 63, Appendix B, of the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual. A manufacturer's or service Contractor's decal is acceptable as long as the above-required information is readily available.
4.4.6 Should such decal become unreadable or lost, then the equipment is to be re-calibrated as soon as possible. Where such equipment either requires repair or cannot be repaired, a timely repair or replacement shall be secured.
4.4.7 All laboratories shall maintain their laboratory testing equipment in accordance with recognized national calibration standards.
4.5 Use of Caltrans to Perform Equipment Calibration
4.5.1 Should the City choose to utilize a Caltrans laboratory to perform equipment calibration, the City and/or Caltrans District Local Assistance Engineer (DLAE) must furnish the following to the appropriate Caltrans District Materials Engineer:
A. A letter requesting required testing services (letter should note if ASTM methods shall be used in lieu of the California Test Method (CTM);
B. Specific instruction on how the Agency is to be billed;
C. An Engineering Authorization number provided by the Caltrans DLAE.
4.5.2 An advance deposit (procedures and amounts of advance deposits vary by Caltrans Districts) is required to cover the cost of calibration done by Caltrans. All such requests shall be made through the appropriate Caltrans DLAE.
4.6 Manufactured and Assembled Materials
4.6.1 The City may permit the use of certain manufactured products, materials or assemblies accompanied by a Certificate of Compliance prior to sampling and testing, provided these products, materials or assemblies do not involve structural integrity or safety to the pub lic.
Additionally, these items must have a history of having met specifications based upon
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
previous sampling and testing. The manufacturer of the products, materials or assemblies shall sign the Certificate of Compliance and state that the included materials and workmanship conform in all respects to the project specifications.
4.7 Certificate of Compliance
4.7.1 Acceptance of manufactured and prefabricated structural materials shall be based on either a Certificate of Compliance and/or source inspection by the City, qualified Consultant, or Caltrans authorized personnel.
4.7.2 The contract documents should specify which materials require a Certificate of Compliance.
For such specified materials, the Engineer is responsible for insuring that a Certificate of Compliance is furnished with each lot of these materials delivered to the work site. The certified material lot number and project number shall be clearly identified on the certificate and on lot tags affixed or stenciled to the released materials. All materials accepted on the basis of a signed Certificate of Compliance shall be referenced by project inspectors to daily inspection reports and laboratory releases. Certified materials such as Portland Cement and Asphalt products shall be sampled for testing as indicated in the "Size, Frequency and Location of Sampling and Testing Tables" (Exhibit “A”) (hereinafter referred to as "Frequency Tables").
4.7.3 Manufactured products, materials or assemblies used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance may be sampled again at the job site and tested at any time during the life of the contract. Items found later not in conformance with contract requirements shall be subject to rejection whether in place or not. The form and distribution of Certificates of Compliance shall be acceptable to the DLAE. A Certificate of Compliance for each item shall be kept in the Engineer's file.
4.8 Performing Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing
4.8.1 Independent Assurance sampling and testing is mandatory for all NHS projects. Caltrans shall perform the Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing. The Engineer shall schedule on a timely basis with the Caltrans Materials Engineer, the Independent Assurance testing of his/her personnel responsible for the Acceptance testing on the project. The frequency of Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing to be performed or witnessed by the Independent Assurance personnel are listed in the Caltrans Quality Assurance Manual.
4.8.2 Independent Assurance samples are taken at random for the purpose of making independent checks on the reliability of the Acceptance Test results. Both Independent Assurance Test samples and Acceptance Test samples should be taken from the same point in the material delivery process, and are split samples for purposes of comparing test results between Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing personnel and field laboratory (acceptance) tester.
Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing does not have to be performed on materials actually incorporated into the work. The tests, however, shall be performed while a project is active and the same acceptance tester and testing equipment shall be used for the project. The split sample is to be tested separately by the field acceptance testing laboratory
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
person and by the Independent Assurance laboratory person using separate equipment.
Independent Assurance samples are to be tested on equipment that is not assigned to the project.
4.8.3 All sampling by Independent Assurance testing personnel must be identified as an Independent Assurance sample even when the number of samples or tests may exceed the sampling schedule.
Such identity must be maintained throughout the testing procedure. Independent Assurance samples shall be kept under the direct control of the Independent Assurance sampler until they are shipped or delivered to the testing laboratory.
4.8.4 Acceptance tester results are compared with Independent Assurance results by the Caltrans District Materials Engineer. The Engineer is responsible to see that the frequency of Independent Assurance testing is conducted in accordance with the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual. The Caltrans District Materials Engineer is responsible for the resolution of testing differences and reporting results to the Engineer in a timely manner.
4.8.5 Poor correlation between Acceptance Testers' results and the Independent Assurance Testers' results indicate probable deficiencies with the job quality acceptance sampling and testing procedures. Independent Assurance samples and tests are not to be used for determining compliance with contract requirements. The frequency of Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing is described in the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual, Section 3 -13, "Performing Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Functions."
4.8.6 The following are the procedures to follow for Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing when performed on all NHS local Agency contracts:
A. Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing is required for each Federal-Aid contract on NHS. The Caltrans DLAE is responsible for assuring that there is a continual process in the district where the Engineer and the Independent Assurance laboratory are notified prior to the start of work. This is accomplished by forwarding a copy of the PS&E package to the District Materials Engineer for review and determination of the required Independent Assurance requirements. The Independent Assurance requirements are then sent to the DLAE on Form MR -0102, “Independent Assuranc e Sampling and Testing.” The Independent Assurance requirements are determined from the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual and are recorded on either the “Report of Witness Test” (Form MR-0103) or the “Corroboration Report” (Form MR -104). Results are retained in summary on the “Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Log Summary Sheet” (See the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual, Appendix C for examples of forms mentioned above).
The frequency of Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing is specified in Table 1, “Frequency of Split Sample and Witness Tests” of the Caltrans Quality Assurance Program Manual. The DLAE is responsible for assuring that acceptance testing and Independent Assurance Activities are monitored by the Engineer during the construction phase of each Federal-Aid project on the NHS.
B. The Engineer is responsible for the timely notification of the appropriate Material Laboratory when Independent Assurance Testing is needed.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
C. Independent Assurance samples are to be tested on a priority basis. Independent Assurance testing personnel are to promptly compare test results with Acceptance Tests performed by project personnel. Acceptability of the purpose of satisfying Independent Assurance requirements rests solely with comparing test results, not on meeting contract requirements.
The District Materials Engineer is responsible for resolving differences when Independent Assurance sampling and testing results compare poorly with acceptance sampling and test results. The District Materials Engineer shall immediately report the poor comparison results to the Engineer by telephone or fax. He/she shall also transmit to the Engineer, the "Corroboration Report." A copy shall also be sent to the DLAE.
D. The District Materials Engineer shall immediately initiate follow-up actions whenever poor comparisons are noted between Independent Assurance and Acceptance Test results.
Independent Assurance Testing personnel's follow-up actions may include further Independent Assurance sampling and testing, and the results placed in the Engineer's file, with a copy furnished to the Caltrans DLAE. The District Materials Engineer shall continue follow-up actions until the discrepancies are resolved.
E. The appropriate Materials Laboratory shall retain the original "Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Log Summary." If a Consultant Independent Assurance is used then a copy of the log summary for each acceptance tester shall be submitted to the Engineer upon project completion. This copy shall be retained in the construction project files.
Note: The use of the foll owing Caltrans forms for local Agency projects is on an optional basis for reporting Independent Assurance activities and/or results and information relating to Independent Assurance. The local Agency or its Consultant testing organization may use any similar form that provides the same information as the forms listed below:
“Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing” (Form MR-0102) “Report of Witness Tests” (Form MR-0103)
“Corroboration Report” (Form MR-0104)
“Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Log Summary” (Form MR0110)
F. Independent Assurance testing is to be done in a manner that shall avoid needless duplication. The construction sampling and/or testing person may be working on several different construction projects concurrently, utilizing t he same equipment during the same time period. When this is the case, it is not necessary to make Independent Assurance tests for all projects. Instead, the results can be incorporated into each appropriate project file to show that the sampler and/or tester has been performing the job correctly, and that the testing equipment is in proper working order.
G. In order to provide required documentation for multiple construction projects as described above, each Independent Assurance sampling or test result shall be entered into the Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Log Summary for the person tested. This
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
summary is retained by the Independent Assurance personnel and shall be readily available for future reference. Applicable contracts, sample identification numbers, and tests performed can be traced to the Independent Assurance Sampling and Testing Log Summary. Copies of the Independent Assurance Samplin g and Testing log summary for each acceptance sampler and tester shall be provided to each affected Engineer for inclusion in their respective files.
4.9 Frequency of Testing
4.9.1 The frequency of testing is to be performed per the sampling and testing frequency tables within the most current California Department of Transportation Quality Assurance Program (QAP) Manual or the project specifications, whichever is most stringent.
4.9.2 Whenever failures occur, sufficient additional acceptance tests should be taken to isolate the affected work. Documentation of the results of such additional tests shall be included in the records, including a description of the corrective measures taken.
4.9.3 Relatively minor quantities of construction materials may be accepted without testing provided acceptance conforms to the conditions stated below. Generally, this provides for accepting minor quantities of materials from a commercial source that is known to be a supplier of specification material.
4.9.4 The Engineer, on the basis of a visual examination, may accept minor quantities of materials without testing, provided the source of the supplies has recently furnished similar materials found to be satisfactory using Caltrans sampling and testing requirements.
4.9.5 Acceptance of a product may be established on the basis of certification by the manufacturer or supplier that the material furnished complies with all specification requirements.
4.9.6 Documentation for acceptance of material as described above must be provided and included in the project records. The documentation should include statements in the project inspector's reports that clearly indicate conditions under which the material was accepted.
5.0 TESTING FREQUENCY
Exhibit “A” of this document provides a guide for sampling and testing required for various materials and products that are used on a Public Works Project or Non-National Highway System Project. For Projects that are State or National Highway Systems, the sampling frequency shall be as stated in the most current California Department of Transportation Quality Assurance Program (QAP) Manual or the project specifications, whichever is most stringent. Close adherence to the sample size requirement avoids the unnecessary delay and expense of obtaining supplementary samples to complete the tests.
The frequency of sampling is intended as a guide under normal conditions. Material well within specifications and uniform in character may result in less frequent sampling and testing, whereas borderline materials may need an increase in the frequency of testing to assure specification
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
compliance. Materials supplied from reliable sources and proven by frequent testing to be of uniform high quality, may subsequently receive less sampling and testing than indicated in the Frequency Testing Tables; however, any deviation from the prescribed frequency must be noted and explained in the material testing records. When materials are being furnished intermittently, with interruptions of several days or weeks, the frequency of sampling and testing should be increased to assure that specification materials are being incorporated into the work.
Whenever failures occur, sufficient additional acceptance tests should be taken to isolate the affected work. Documentation of the results of such additional tests shall be included in the records, including a description of the corrective measures taken.
Relatively minor quantities of construction materials may be accepted without testing provided acceptance conforms to the conditions stated below. Generally, this provides for accepting minor quantities of materials from a commercial source that is known to be a supplier of specification material.
The Engineer, on the basis of a visual examination, may accept minor quantities of materials without testing provided the source of the supplies has recently furnished similar materials found to be satisfactory using normal sampling and testing requirements.
Acceptance of a product may be established on the basis of certification by the manufacturer or supplier that the material furnished complies with all specification requirements.
Documentation for acceptance of material as described in paragraphs 1 and 2 above must be provided and included in the project records. Documentation should include statements in the project inspector's reports that clearly indicate conditions under which the material was accepted (e.g., description, quantity, location, where placed, certification numbers and/or other accompanying data).
6.0 RECORDS
All material records of samples and tests, material releases and Certificates of Compliance for a given project shall be incorporated into the Engineer's project file. This file shall be organized as described in Section 16.8, "Project Files," of the Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual. The complete project file shall be available at a single location for inspection by Caltrans and FHWA personnel at any time during the construction project. The file shall be available at the local Agency administrative office for at least three years following the date of final payment. The use of a "Summary Log," as described in “Acceptance Sampling of Tes ting,” facilitates reviews of material sampling and testing by Caltrans and FHWA reviewing personnel, and assists the Engineer in tracking the frequency of testing.
When two or more projects are being furnished materials simultaneously from a single plant, it is not necessary to secure separate samples for each project; however, individual test reports are to be supplied to complete the records for each project.
COL Quality Assurance Program – General Procedures 10/17/2019
7.0 PROJECT CERTIFICATION
Upon completion of the project, a "Materials Certificate" shall be completed by the Engineer. The City shall include a "Materials Certificate" in the Report of Expenditures submitted to the Caltrans District Director, Attention: District Local Assistance Engineer. A copy of the "Materials Certificate" shall also be included in the local Agency construction records. The Construction M anager in charge of the construction function for the City shall sign the certificate. All materials incorporated into the work which did not conform to specifications must be explained and justified on the "Materials Certificate," including changes by virtue of contract change order

Conditions: Unit rates presented on this fee schedule are for routinely performed geotechnical laboratory tests. Numerous other earth material physical tests can be performed in our geotechnical laboratories, including rock core, soil cement and soil lime mixture tesls. Tests not listed can be quoted upon request. This fee schedule is valid through December 31, 2021.
Prices are based on the assumption that samples are uncontaminated and do not contain heavy metals, acids, carcinogens and/or volatile organics which can be measured by an organic vapor analyzer or photoionization detector with a concentration greaterthan 50 parts-per-million (ppm). Quoted testing feesare based on the assumption that no protective clothing will be required to handle samples. lf Level D protective clothing will be required during handling ofsamples (as defined in the Federal CFR Part 1910.120), then a 40% increase in fees presented in this schedule will be applied. Level C protective clothing will be a 60% increase in fees.
Converse will not handle samples that require either Level B or Level A protection in our geotechnical laboratories. Contaminated samples will be returned to the client.
Uncontaminated samples will be disposed of 30 days after presentation of test results. Theclientmustdisclosethesourceofsamples. Samplesimportedfromout of state will be incinerated after testing, in accordance with requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture. Soil samples obtained within the State of Califomia currently designated quarantine areas will also be incinerated in accordance with the requirement ofthe State of California, Department of Food and Agriculture,DivisionofPlantlndustry,PestExclusion. A$S.00incinerationfeewillbe added to each sample that is required to be incinerated in accordance with State and Federal law.
Test results requiring plots will be presented in a publishable format generated from computer programs. OtheMise, raw test numbers will be presented. A minimum laboratoryfeeof$50.00wi|l bechargedtopresentandmailtestresults. Beyondthe standard U. S. Mail delivery, specialized transmittalwill be charged at additionalcost (e.9., Federal Express, UPS, etc.). Geotechnical testing does not include engineering and/or geologic review and analysis. Typical turn-around for geotechnical laboratory testing is two weeks (or roughly ten working days). To expedite test turn-around to five working days, a 50% increase in the fees in this schedule will be applied. Many geotechnical tests require at least one week to perform in accordance with the ASTM or other standard specifications. Fees presented in this schedule for relatively undisturbed direct shear, consolidation or expansion pressure tests are based on the assumption that 22jnch-diameter(2.416- inch inside diameter) brass ring samples will be provided to the geotechnical laboratory for testing. Remolded specimens will be compacted in standard 2.5-inch outside diameter brass rings for direct shear, consolidation and expansion pressure tests. All fees presented in this schedule are based on the assumption that the client will deliver samples to our laboratory at no additional cost to Converse. lnvoices will be issued monthly and are payable on receipt unless otherwise agreed upon.

From: Jeff Hogan, Senior Director – Development Services Chenin Dow, Senior Manager – Real Estate & Economic Development Araxie Kahramanian, Analyst – Real Estate and Economic Development Subject:Approval of the Annual Report for the Downtown Lancaster Property and Business Improvement District
Recommendation:
Approve the Downtown Lancaster Property and Business Improvement District (PBID) Annual Report for 2021 submitted by The BLVD Association.
Fiscal Impact:
None.
Background:
In July 2013, with the overwhelming support of more than 73% of downtown property owners, the Lancaster City Council established the Downtown Lancaster PBID. This marked the transition of The BLVD Association, an organization of downtown merchants founded in 1989, from a Parking and Business Improvement District (BID) which generated approximately $25,000.00 annually for promotion of the downtown area to a Property and Business Improvement District (PBID) which generates more than $300,000.00 annually.
These funds are utilized by The BLVD Association to create a more vibrant downtown and help its member businesses thrive. Funds are allocated in three major categories: Clean & Safe, Marketing and Promotions, and Administration & Advocacy.
Clean & Safe
In 2021, The BLVD Association’s Clean & Safe Committee continued its focus on maintenance and security services in the form of Clean Teams and The BLVD Ambassadors. Two Clean Teams from local nonprofit Desert Haven Enterprises continue to conduct cleanup and beautification efforts throughout the downtown district on a weekly basis to ensure the general cleanliness and aesthetic appeal of The BLVD. The Association has also 8 1
9 contracted with Streetplus to continue The BLVD Ambassadors Program, a private security and ambassador program for the downtown district.
In addition, the BLVD was proactive in ensuring the cleanliness of The BLVD as we experienced a second year of COVID-19 challenges.
Marketing & Promotions
The Association continued a variety of marketing efforts to attract patrons to the downtown area. Advertising efforts encompassed newspaper, radio, billboards, television, social media, and the web. The Association also organized and/or participated in several different special events, ranging from the City’s Farmers’ Market, the Tour De Luc, and annual events such as Small Business Saturday and Magical BLVD Christmas while adhering to social distancing and COVID-19 protocols.
Administration & Advocacy
The third component of the PBID budget and governance is Administration & Advocacy. This category encompasses the administration of Clean & Safe and Marketing & Promotions programs, as well as community involvement and representation.
Due to the continuous rising of operational and administrative contract costs, the BLVD Association unanimously voted to increase the PBID assessments by 3% which is the maximum annual increase allotted. The increase will go into effect in Fall 2022 and will generate an additional $9,000.00 annually.

Annual Report
2 Introduction
In 2013, The BLVD Association (Association) partnered with the City to establish the Downtown Lancaster Property and Business Improvement District (PBID), the first-ever district of its kind in the City of Lancaster. Through this effort, the downtown area’s previous business district was transformed from an entity that generated approximately $25,000 annually into an organization with more than $300,000 in resources to promote The BLVD and help its member businesses thrive. The PBID was established for a five-year period, from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2018. The PBID was renewed in 2018 for a five- year period, from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2023.
The members of the current board represent a wide range of industries and expertise, from restaurateurs and retailers to professional and personal services:

The PBID’s budget and governance is separated into three distinct categories: Clean & Safe, Marketing & Promotions, and Administration & Advocacy. Each of these categories is guided by a committee comprised of board members and other interested members of the Association.
Below is a summary of the activities for each in 2021.
3 Clean & Safe
In 2021, the Clean & Safe Committee continued its efforts to provide maintenance and security services via Desert Haven Enterprises and The BLVD Ambassadors.
Desert Haven Enterprises
Since 2015, The Association has engaged the services of local nonprofit Desert Haven Enterprises to conduct
cleanup and beautification efforts throughout the downtown district. Two Desert Haven crews, dubbed “Clean Teams,” work daily Monday through Friday to ensure the general
cleanliness and aesthetic appeal of The BLVD. Services include removing trash and debris, assisting with
landscaping, sweeping, cleaning street furniture, and more.
Teams work on Lancaster Boulevard as well as all side
streets throughout The BLVD district. These services
augment the City of Lancaster’s previously existing
maintenance services on The BLVD.
The BLVD AMBASSADORS
The Association also contracts with Streetplus who oversee The BLVD Ambassadors, a private security and
ambassador program for the downtown district. The BLVD Ambassadors serve to not only augment the security of The BLVD, but also to act as ambassadors who can assist
patrons as they frequent downtown destinations. As crime statistics and member feedback alike illustrate that The BLVD is already a very safe area. The BLVD Ambassadors
focus primarily on minor quality-of-life issues and customer engagement and through their efforts the BLVD continues to be a safe place to visit.
BLVD Marketing & Promotions
Although COVID-19 continued to place r estrictions on social gatherings, The BLVD Association hosted several family centered events, including the Farmer’s Market, Cultural District Family Day, Small Business Saturday, and Christmas on The BLVD.

Business Saturday event hosted by The
BLVD Association. To capitalize on the
national campaign organized by American
Express, the Association organized a
“Shop Small” incentive program to support
Lancaster’s downtown business
community. The program encouraged
patrons to shop local while providing them an opportunity to win an assorted array of raffle prizes and BLVD gift cards.
Advertising
The Association contracted with a variety of local agencies to attract patrons to the downtown district, with advertising encompassing newspaper, radio, web, and social media. The BLVD also saw an increase of community involvement via The BLVD’s social media pages , with Facebook reaching over 18,000 followers and Instagram reaching over 11,000 followers.
5 Spectrum Commercial
Through The BLVD Association’s partnership with Spectrum, Spectrum continued to run the 30-second television and streaming commercial highlighting The BLVD’s thrilling music and entertainment venues, superb restaurants, and notable attractions.
Administration & Advocacy
The third component of the PBID budget and governance is Administration & Advocacy. This category encompasses efforts such as administration and business attraction, as well as community involvement and representation.

1 CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 2
CITY OF LANCASTER
VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED (VMT) MITIGATION PROGRAM & EIR
This contract amendment is to allow for additional services above and beyond those anticipated in the original scope of services attached to the subconsultant agreement dated June 15, 2021, between Michael Baker International (Client) and Fehr & Peers (Consultant) for the City of Lancaster VMT Mitigation Program & EIR.
SCOPE OF WORK
The following tasks related to the completion of the nexus study in support of the VMT Mitigation Program are outside of the current scope of work:
• Project Data Needs – In order to develop the methodology for the calculation of the fee per VMT, Fehr & Peers extracted and summarized data from the SCAG model to estimate the growth in VMT from 2021-2040 Citywide and in the City of Lancaster’s non-exempt Transportation Analysis Zones (TAZs).
• Pilot Project Examples – After extracting the aforementioned data from the SCAG model, Fehr & Peers developed pilot project examples to showcase how the VMT mitigation fee might be assessed for different types of projects with varying levels of VMT impacts. Fehr & Peers anticipates developing two additional pilot project examples that will be used to show the range of costs that developers will need to pay into the fee program.
• Development of Nexus Methodology – Fehr & Peers has coordinated with the project team and City staff to refine the methodology for calculating the cost per VMT for the VMT mitigation fee program. It is anticipated that additional coordination will be required to finalize the methodology.
The following tasks related to the completion of the nexus study in support of the VMT Mitigation Program have required more time and effort than originally anticipated:
• Peer Review of Nexus Study – After assisting the proj ect team with finalizing the nexus methodology, Fehr & Peers will provide a peer review of the nexus study, to be completed by EPS.
While this task was included in the original scope of work, Fehr & Peers’ assistance was needed up- front to help develop the nexus methodology, which required that we use the budget that was earmarked for this task.
• Meetings – Fehr & Peers has participated in check-in calls with the project team to coordinate our efforts and refine the nexus methodology and has participated in bi-weekly check-in calls with City staff to provide updates on our progress. It is anticipated that additional meeting participation will be needed prior to the completion of the project.
BUDGET SUMMARY
We estimate an additional 50 hours of staff time to perform the scope of work described above for a total fee of $10,190. The following summarizes the resulting total budget:
$22,950 – Original contract
$3,680 – Amendment No. 1
2 $10,190 – Amendment No. 2 (this amendment)

Background:
Several meetings were held to discuss compensation and working conditions with City employees. As a result of those meetings the City arrived at a tentative agreement for a new four and a half (4 1/2) year Memorandum of Understanding with the Teamsters Local 911 and a new four and a half (4 1/2) year Memorandum of Understanding with the Lancaster Code Enforcement Association; and an updated compensation schedule for regular and probationary employees.
8 2
5 The agreements for represented employees provide a cost-of-living adjustment of 5.0% in July 2022, 2.0% in July 2023, 1.0% in July 2024, and 1.0% in July 2025. In addition, represented employees will be eligible for performance-based merit step adjustments of up to 5% in July 2022, July 2023, July 2024, and July 2025.
The tentative agreement with Teamsters Local 911 increases boot reimbursement for employees who wear uniforms from $350 to $450 per year; and increases boot/pants allowance from $500 to $600 per year for all other Local 911 bargaining unit members. The tentative agreement with the Lancaster Code Enforcement Association will also implement a boot allowance program at $150.00 per year for all Lancaster Code Enforcement Association members.
Teamsters Local 911 and LCEA have ratified the tentative agreements. Staff recommends the City Council adopt the appropriate Resolutions; and authorize the City Manager to execute the Memorandum of Understanding.
Beginning in 2012, the City changed its contribution for employee medical, dental, and vision insurance to a defined monthly dollar amount. This resolution replaces that contribution with a no cost family option for full-time employees at similar or better options as offered in the 2022 medical, dental and vision insurance offerings.

STAFF REPORT
City of Lancaster
NB 1

JC
Date: February 22, 2022
To: Mayor Parris and City Council Members
From: Jeff Hogan, Senior Director - Development Services Subject: Introduction of an Ordinance to Establish Requirements for State Bill 1383 Mandatory Organics Disposal Reduction
Recommendation:
Introduce Ordinance No. 1088, adding Chapter 13.18 to the Lancaster Municipal Code, consistent with Senate Bill 1383 involving short-lived climate pollutants for reducing organic waste in landfills.
Fiscal Impact:
No direct fiscal impact.
Background:
Since the mid-1980s, the State of California has signed into law several bills intended to reduce the amount of solid waste entering the waste stream to preserve public health, safety, welfare, and reduce the impacts to landfills. For example, Assembly Bill 939 (AB 939) was signed into law in September 1989, which, in part, mandated each city or county to enact programs to divert twenty- five percent (25%) of solid waste by 1995, and fifty percent (50%) by the year 2000.
To further their waste reduction goals, the State of California signed Assembly Bill 341 (AB 341) in January 2012. AB 341 increased the State’s waste diversion requirements from fifty percent (50%) to seventy-five percent (75%) by 2020. In addition, AB 341 requires California commercial businesses and public entities that generate four (4) or more cubic yards of solid waste per week, and multi-family housing complexes with five (5) or more units, to adopt recycling practices that divert usable materials from disposal. Based on CalRecycle data, the commercial sector generates nearly three-fourths of the solid waste in California, much of which was found to be readily recyclable. Additionally, AB 341 requires each jurisdiction to have a commercial solid waste recycling program that consists of education, outreach, and monitoring of these generators, and the data is reported to CalRecycle annually.
In October 2014, Assembly Bill 1826 (AB 1826) was signed into law, requiring businesses to 8 3
3 recycle their organic waste, and local jurisdictions to implement an organic waste recycling program to divert organic waste generated by businesses, including multi-family dwellings that consist of five (5) or more units. AB 1826 requires these businesses to arrange for recycling services for the following types of organics: food waste, green waste, landscape and pruning waste, nonhazardous wood waste, and food-soiled paper. Multi-family dwellings must arrange for recycling services for the same material except for food waste and food-soiled paper. As of December 31, 2020, all businesses and multi-family dwellings generating more than two (2) cubic yards of organic waste per week are required to arrange for organic recycling services.
In September 2016, Senate Bill 1383 was signed into law to continue the State’s support in adopting policies that improve organics waste recycling and innovative, cost-effective policies.
This bill addresses food waste recycling directly to reduce organic waste methane emissions. The first stage of this regulation became enforceable by the State on January 01, 2022, and requires the City to adopt an ordinance to meet the State's mandatory organics disposal reduction requirements.
Per State law, the ordinance before the City Council will require single-family residents and commercial businesses, including multi-family residential dwellings, to enroll in source-separated organic services. Additionally, businesses shall provide containers for source-separated organic waste and recyclables in all indoor and outdoor areas where disposal containers are provided for customers for materials generated by that business. State law allows for the limited issuance of waivers. City staff will work with local businesses and grant waivers allowed by State regulations.
Commercial edible food generators must arrange to recover the maximum amount of edible food that would otherwise be disposed of. The State requires these entities to enter into contracts with food recovery organizations and keep records reviewable by City staff and State representatives showing proof of food recovery. Commencing no later than January 31, 2023, for tier-one commercial edible food generators and January 31, 2025, for tier-two commercial edible food generators, these entities shall provide an annual food recovery report to the City. City staff will use this information to complete required reports to the County and State. In addition, the City is required to conduct inspections and perform an annual compliance review of commercial businesses to ensure they are subscribed to collection services and that edible food generators are arranging for proper food recovery.
Starting January 01, 2024, State law requires the City to take enforcement action against anyone not in compliance. The procedure is outlined in the proposed ordinance with State prescribed minimum violation amounts. In addition, between now and December 31, 2023, the City will be providing educational material to businesses and residents to gain compliance with this State requirement.
