IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING TITLE 3, CHAPTER 3.45 SOCIAL OPPORTUNITY ENDOWMENT FUND (SOE) SECTIONS 3.45.020 PURPOSE OF THE FUND AND

3.45.040 ADMINISTRATION AND ORGANIZATION OF FUND IN THE LIVERMORE

MUNICIPAL CODE

The Social Opportunity Endowment Fund (SOE) was established by City Council in 2006 (Municipal code section 3.45; Reso #2006-38; Ordinance No. 1790) to provide a long-term, stable funding source for the delivery of quality human services to low-income City of Livermore residents.

In 2006 Shea Homes initially capitalized the SOE through a Development Agreement (114-97) contribution for Tract 7610. The City received $956, 000 in revenue plus $94,193 in interest earned over the life of the fund which was fully expended between FY 2006-07 to FY 2022-23.

Due to the growing need for services in the community, and replenishment of SOE funds through development agreements, staff are recommending the SOE ordinance be amended to reflect inflation and the increase in cost of doing business. The current SOE ordinance, which was adopted in 2006, allows up to $80,000 to be spent per year on human services programs.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

Section 1 . Purpose. This ordinance amendment to the Social Opp ortunity Endowment Fund ensures long-term sustainability to the fund.

Section 2. Instruction for Publication. The amendments made by this ordinance are made as follows for transparency. Deletions are reflected in this ordinance using a strikethrough, and new language is underlined. However, language with a strikethrough, and the underlines, will not be codified. The codification will only reflect the final language.

Section 3. Amendment. The Livermore Municipal Code is hereby amended as follows:

A. Title 3 (Revenue and Finance). Chapter 45 (Social Opportunity Endowment Fund), Section 020 (Purpose of the fund) is amended to read as follows:

The purpose of the fund is to provide a long - term, stable funding source for the delivery of quality human services to low income city residents.

The primary goal of the fund is to maximize the efficient and cost - effective delivery of human services and t o facilitate collaborative efforts and a coordinated approach to improve and expand the delivery of quality human services to low income residents in the City.
27 2 ORDINANCE NO. _____

The fund is intended to be similar to an endowment whereby the balance of the fund is grown so that the interest earnings alone provide a stable source of revenue in addition to slowly drawing down the principal to support the delivery of human services in the City.

B. Title 3 (Revenue and Finance). Chapter 45 (Social Opportunity Endowment Fund), Section 040 (Administration and organization of fund), subsection E is amended to read as follows:

E. To maintain a consistent source of funding for human services, no more than $80,000 or 30 percent of the balance of the fund, whichever is less, $150,000 (“Available Award”), may be awarded each fiscal year. The Available Award shall be increased each fiscal year beginning fiscal year 2026-27 by 3% of the then current total of the Available Award.

The City is not obligated to award the full amount available e ach fiscal year for award from the fund. The maximum cumulative amount that may be awarded in a fiscal year shall not exceed the difference between the total amount to be awarded for human services for that fiscal year and the public service portion of the City’s community development block grant entitlement.

The remaining balance of the fund shall be invested consistent with Section 53601 of the Government Code and the City’s standard practices.

Section 4. Environmental. The passage of this ordinance is not a project according to the definition in the California Environmental Quality Act and, therefore, is not subject to the provisions requiring environmental review.

Section 5. Severability. If any part of this ordina nce is declared invalid by a court, such invalidity shall not affect any of the remaining parts.

Section 6. Effective date . This Ordinance shall take effect 30 days after its adoption.

The foregoing ordinance was introduced at the meeting of the City Council of the City of Livermore held on September 8, 2025, by the following vote:

SUBJECT:

Resolution authorizing the acceptance for permanent maintenance, release of the security bonds, and execution of a Notice of Completion for the Resurfacing and Sidewalk Improvements Project, comprised of the Street Resurfacing Project SM202201, Sidewalk Repair Project SM202302, and ADA Access Ramps Project SM202107.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the acceptance for permanent maintenance, release of the security bonds, and authorizing the City Manager to sign the Notice of Completion for the Resurfacing and Sidewalk Improvements Project, comprised of the Street Resurfacing Project SM202201, Sidewalk Repair Project SM202302, and ADA Access Ramps Project SM202107.

DECISION TYPE
Administrative

SUMMARY
On June 24, 2024, City Council awarded the contract for construction of Resurfacing and Sidewalk Improvements Project, composed of Street Resurfacing Project SM202201, Sidewalk Repair Project SM202302, and ADA Access Ramps Project SM202107 to A. Teichert & Son, Inc., dba Teichert Construction. The contract was substantially completed on June 9, 2025, and reached final completion on July 30, 2025. The contract can now be accepted for permanent maintenance. The process to release the contractor's bonds can begin.

DISCUSSION
The Resurfacing and Sidewalk Improvements Project combined the following three projects:

Street Resurfacing Project SM202201:

33 This project rehabilitated seven major road segments, including three arterial roads and four collector roads, totaling approximately 9,293 linear feet (LF) of roadway centerline. Improvements included base repairs, an asphalt concrete (AC) overlay, new pavement striping, and the installation of upgraded vehicle detection cameras at one signalized intersection (Las Positas Road at Hilliker Place). Pavement striping enhancements incorporated bike lane and crosswalk upgrades in accordance with the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Trails Active Transportation Plan. In addition to the 7 segments, Holmes Street, between Concannon Boulevard and Wetmore Road was added to the project scope due to extensive pothole damage, requiring approximately 16,000 square feet of base repairs.

Sidewalk Repair Project SM202302:

The City of Livermore maintains an annual sidewalk program and budget to manage sidewalk issues.

City maintained sidewalk locations are prioritized and programmed for repairs. This project included repairs to 202 sidewalk sections, totaling approximately 21,537 square feet (SF) located at high pedestrian traveled locations. Several of these locations are at City owned and maintained, high traffic areas, such as the Civic Center Public Library. Additional locations included Carnegie Park, schools, and backing lot wall locations with high pedestrian traffic connecting to trails and pathways to parks. The City also takes requests from residents and included several locations for this sidewalk repair project that were requested by residents and met the priority criteria.

ADA Access Ramps Project SM202107:

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) access ramps program is guided by requests from the Human Services Commission and the City of Livermore’s ADA Transition Plan. The program maintains and routinely updates a list of ramp locations, which are evaluated, prioritized, and planned for construction to ensure ADA compliance throughout the city. This project included constructing 63 ADA-compliant curb ramps at various locations. Locations were selected based on factors such as public safety concerns, high pedestrian use, and requests from residents with mobility challenges.

Combined, these projects will extend the life of the street segments and improve public safety by eliminating road hazards, sidewalk lifts, and slope deficiencies in accessible ramps.

The project was completed in accordance with the contract documents in a manner acceptable to the City Engineer.

At time of award, the contractor provided a faithful performance bond guaranteeing completion of the project, and that bond must now be released. Six months after the date of the resolution accepting the project, the labor and materials bond guaranteeing the improvements should be reduced to an amount equal to any claims filed and of which notice has been given. The balance of the bond will be released upon the settlement of all claims and obligations for which the security was given (there are no known claims at this time). The security for the guarantee and warranty of work shall remain in effect for one year from the date of the resolution.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS

The original construction contract was $4,178,975. The contingency budget for change orders is 10% of that amount or $200,000, whichever is greater, per Municipal code 2.68.590B. The final contract amount including change orders was $4,192,998. The total value of change orders was $14,023 (0.3% of the 34 contract amount), which consisted primarily of installing additional ADA-compliant curb ramps at various locations and additional asphalt base repairs on Holmes Street between Concannon Boulevard and Wetmore Road. The Street Resurfacing Project SM202201 is funded with State SB1 (Fund 561).

Sidewalk Repair Project SM202302 is funded with State Gas Taxes (Fund 560). ADA Access Ramps Project SM202107 is funded with State Gas Taxes (Fund 560). The budgets cover the cost for this construction contract, change orders, construction management, materials testing, inspection, and administration. No additional appropriations are required.

This maintenance work will not significantly increase operation and maintenance costs.

DECISION TYPE
Administrative

SUMMARY
1080 Central LLC (Developer) has completed a Final Tract Map and Subdivision Improvement Agreement for the Cherry Way Project in conformance with the conditions of approval for the Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8388. The proposed Subdivision Improvement Agreement will secure the construction of the public and private improvements. Public improvements include public streets, traffic control devices, sewer and water systems, curb, gutter, sidewalk, paving, striping and signage. Private improvements include private storm drain systems and bio-retention facilities. Final Tract Map 8388 can now be approved. All real property offered for dedication on Final Tract Map 8388 can be accepted at 40 this time except the Public Utility Easement (P.U.E.) and Street Dedications including Cherry Way and Central Avenue, reserving the right to accept the offers at a future date. Tract 8388 consists of 4 single family homes at the end of Cherry Way, consistent with the approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map.

DISCUSSION
On November 9, 2020, the City Council approved Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8388 (SUB 18-008) and the conditions of approval for the Cherry Way Project, consisting of 4 single-family detached homes at the lot between Cherry Way as shown in the Vicinity Map (Attachment 1). The Developer has completed the Final Tract Map and improvement plans for the project and staff has found them to be in substantial conformance with the conditions of approval for Vesting Tentative Tract Map 8388. The improvement plans have been approved and are on file with the City Engineer.

The Developer is responsible for funding and constructing public and private improvements required for this development. The project includes the following public improvements: public streets, traffic control devices, sewer and water systems, curb, gutter, sidewalk, paving, striping and signage.

The private
infrastructure improvements include the bio-retention facilities and storm drain system. These improvements will be privately maintained through the Homeowners Association.

The proposed Subdivision Improvement Agreement will secure the construction of the public and private improvements. The Developer has provided the required insurance and bonds securing the construction of improvements per the provisions of the Subdivision Improvement Agreement. The bonds are on file in the City Clerk's office. The bonds will be released once the public improvements have been completed and accepted by the City of Livermore.

According to Development Code section 10.05.090, the subdivider must complete the improvements within 12 months from the date of recording of the final map, unless an extension is granted by City Council. The subdivider has requested a 12-month extension to complete the improvements. Staff recommends that a 12-month extension be granted to the subdivider, for a total of 24 months, to provide time to complete the improvements as required.

Final Tract Map 8388 includes an offer of dedication for public utility easements and street dedications for Cherry Way and Central Avenue. Staff recommends the Council reject Public Utility Easement (P.U.E.) and Street Dedications including Cherry Way and Central Avenue, reserving the right to accept the offers at a future date, after these public improvements have been completed.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS

Upon completion and acceptance of public improvements, the City will assume maintenance responsibilities for the public infrastructure. The estimated annual cost for maintenance of public infrastructure, including curb, gutter, sidewalk, paving, striping and signage, traffic control devices, and water is $2,274. $999 of this cost is funded by the Water Fund (Fund 640). The remaining $1,275 is funded by the General Fund (Fund 100) and other use taxes, which is partially derived from increased property taxes generated from the new development.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 6.5

DATE:

October 13, 2025
TO:

Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:

Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:

Resolution authorizing the execution of a first amendment to the agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. for on-call engineering map and plan review services for development projects and improvement plans, increasing the not-to-exceed amount from $400,000 to $800,000, adding language to allow the City to modify the contract, and extending the contract term through December 31, 2028.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute the first amendment to the agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. for on-call engineering map and plan review services for development projects and improvement plans, increasing the not-to-exceed amount from $400,000 to $800,000, adding language to allow the City to modify the contract, and extending the term of the contract through December 31, 2028.

DECISION TYPE
Administrative

SUMMARY
The proposed contract amendment with CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG) will authorize continued on-call engineering development plan review services, including final map plan review, improvement plan review, and building permit reviews. This first amendment to the professional services agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. will allow CSG to continue to provide project plan review services for development projects such as Tract 8659 Harridge, Tract 8094 Garaventa Hills and other future subdivision projects.

This first amendment increases the not-to-exceed contract amount from $400,000 to $800,000 and extends the term through December 31, 2028.

DISCUSSION
For the past twelve years, the City of Livermore (City) has hired engineering consultants to assist the 76 Engineering Division with development engineering tasks during workload surges. Their services include assisting staff in the review of development entitlement applications and identifying conditions of approval, improvement plan and final map review, legal description review, and general engineering services.

The Engineering Division requires multiple engineering consultants to assist in performing timely development reviews during workload surges. The workload related to development review fluctuates and the support of consultants allows the Engineering Division to provide quality reviews and timely customer service to the public, developers, and City staff. The consultants were shortlisted through a Request for Qualifications/Proposals. The professional services agreements provide on-call engineering plan review services including map plan review, improvement plan review, and building permit reviews.

These agreements authorize the City Engineer to approve work tasks related to the contract within the overall budget amount.

On February 27, 2024, the City entered into a professional service agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG) to provide professional plan review services. The agreement was for a four-year term with a not-to-exceed contract amount of $400,000, which was based on the anticipated workload at that time.

Over the past year, demand for services from CSG Consultants has significantly increased, driven by accelerated development activity—particularly within the Isabel Neighborhood Specific Plan area. These services include technical review of final subdivision maps, civil improvement plans, and building permit applications to ensure full compliance with City standards, adopted design guidelines, and applicable regulatory frameworks, including stormwater management requirements and the California Subdivision Map Act.

This amendment will allow CSG to continue performing plan reviews for development projects such as Tract 8659 Harridge, Tract 8388 Cherry Way, and Tract 8094 Garaventa Hills.

This first amendment to the CSG agreement increases the not-to-exceed contract amount from $400,000 to $800,000, adds language to allow the City to modify the contract, and extends the term of the agreements through December 31, 2028.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS

This first amendment increases compensation by $400,000, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $800,000. Funding for the amendment will be provided by the Engineering operating budget for consultant services. The City collects plan check fees from developers to offset these costs, no additional appropriation is required.

84 CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 6.6

DATE:

October 13, 2025
TO:

Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:

Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:

Resolution authorizing the City Manager to approve and execute change orders or contract amendments for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project SD202132, (FEMA PA-09-CA-4308-PW-00602), in an amount not to exceed ten percent of the construction contract value of $2,680,785.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to approve and execute change orders or contract amendments for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project SD202132, (FEMA PA-09-CA-4308-PW-00602), in an amount not to exceed ten percent of the construction contract value of $2,680,785.

DECISION TYPE
Administrative

SUMMARY
On June 9, 2025, the City Council delegated authority to the City Manager to award a construction contract for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project SD202132, (FEMA PA-09-CA-4308-PW-00602) in an amount not to exceed $2,700,000. This delegation included authority to execute change orders or amendments within the approved not-to-exceed amount, reject all other bids, and take any actions necessary and appropriate to implement the purpose and intent of the resolution, including approval of minor modifications to the proposed agreement.

Bids for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project No. SD202132 were received on July 15, 2025. A construction contract with Grade Tech, Inc. in the amount of $2,680,795 was executed on August 11, 2025. While the awarded contract amount falls within the previously authorized limit, the remaining balance of approximately $19,205 is insufficient to accommodate potential change orders or amendments that may arise during the course of construction. To ensure timely and efficient management of the project and avoid delays, staff requests City Council authorize the City Manager to execute change orders or contract amendments in an amount not to exceed ten percent of the 85 construction contract value of $2,680,795.

DISCUSSION
Winter storm events in 2017 and 2022-2023 had significant impacts on areas around the Arroyo Las Positas Creek. The creek overtopped and travelled overland, flooding the golf course, Beeb’s parking lot, and parts of Livermore Municipal Airport, etc. The floodwaters uprooted trees, deposited debris and sediments, and caused damage to the drainage system, equipment, paved pathways, among other amenities, and also damaged private facilities. Floodwater also overtopped the channel upstream of the Airway Boulevard culvert crossing Airway Boulevard at various locations flooding Airway Boulevard, Club House Drive, Terminal Circle, the eastern part of Livermore Municipal Airport, the parking lots, and private businesses.

The Golf Course Damage Repairs Project SD202132, FEMA PA-09-CA-4308-PW-00602, will restore cart pathways, tee boxes, greens and fairways, etc., construct concrete floodwalls along the northern side of the golf course parking lot, install a flood gate at the cart bridge, and construct earthen flood berms to the east of the parking lot. In addition, a combination of concrete floodwalls and earthen flood berms will be constructed along the northern side of Airway Boulevard. The project will mitigate flooding and protect critical infrastructure.

On June 9, 2025, t
he City Council delegated authority to the City Manager to award a construction contract for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project in an amount not to exceed $2,700,000. With bids opening in the middle of July and no Council meetings in August, delegating authority to award the construction contract was necessary to allow the contract to be signed in August and for work to begin.

Starting the work in summer was necessary so that work near creeks can be completed by October 15th per the environmental permits.

This Council item authorizes change orders during construction up to $268,079, which is 10% of the $2,680,795 construction contract with Grade Tech Inc. This 10% amount is consistent with the change order allowance in Livermore Municipal Code Section 2.68.590.

See Attachment 1 for a project location map and Attachment 2 for the executed construction contract.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT/ DECLARATION -
A Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared,
circulated and a Notice of Determination filed with County of Alameda on January 14, 2025.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS

The budget for the Golf Course Damage Repair Project SD202132 is in the 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Plan. The budget covers the cost of this proposed change order allowance of $268,079, the construction contract and all other project costs including design, permits, and construction phase
support services. The project is funded as shown on the table below. No additional budget appropriations are required.

ITEM NO. 6.7

DATE:

October 13, 2025
TO:

Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:

Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:

Resolution authorizing execution of an agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc., in an amount not-to-exceed $1,783,054 and a term ending June 30, 2029, to provide design and construction support services for the Water Reclamation Plant Digester Heating Loop Replacement Project WW202315.

RECOMMENDED ACTION

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc., in an amount not-to-exceed $1,783,054 and a term ending June 30, 2029, to provide design and construction support services for the Water Reclamation Plant Digester Heating Loop Replacement Project WW202315.

DECISION TYPE
Administrative

SUMMARY
The City of Livermore (City) Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) anaerobic digester hot water loop system boilers are near the end of their expected useful life and need to be replaced to increase system reliability, redundancy, and efficiency. The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) for the heating loop system is also outdated and needs to be replaced with equipment that meets current standards. Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Carollo) was identified as the most qualified consultant to provide the design and construction support services for the WRP Digester Heating Loop Replacement Project WW202315 (project). This agreement with Carollo, in an amount not-to-exceed $1,783,054, provides design and engineering construction support services for the project including project management, as-built conditions verification, permitting support, preliminary design, detailed design, bidding support, construction support, and project closeout. The contract amount of $1,783,054 represents 30% of the estimated total cost of the project, which is typical for wastewater treatment projects involving complex mechanical and electrical systems.

DISCUSSION
96 The current WRP biogas boilers heating the anaerobic digesters as well as the Administration and Maintenance Buildings are near the end of their expected useful life and need to be replaced.

Additionally, the PLC that controls this system is outdated and needs to be replaced with equipment that meets current standards as identified in the WRP 2022 Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Master Plan. The digester heating loop system in its entirety is critical in ensuring the anaerobic digesters function properly to produce biosolids for regulated disposal. The location of the anaerobic digester hot water loop system is shown on Attachment 1.

In May 2024, staff sent out a request for qualifications for consultants to perform engineering services for utility projects, including water and wastewater projects, associated with the City’s Capital Improvement Plan. The purpose of this process was to receive Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from multiple consultants, and based on review of these qualifications, execute on-call utility engineering services agreements and establish a short list of consultants who would be eligible for supporting future utility projects. Based on review of the SOQs, including qualifications, interest, and coverage, a selection committee comprised of staff from Engineering and Water Resources found Carollo to be the top-ranked consultant for utility engineering services with a wastewater emphasis.

In March 2025, staff requested a proposal from Carollo to perform engineering services for the project.

Staff from Engineering and Water Resources reviewed the submitted proposal and determined it met the project requirements. This agreement with Carollo will provide design and construction phase support services for the project. The not-to-exceed amount for the agreement of $1,783,054 represents approximately 30% of the total estimated project cost, which is typical for wastewater treatment projects involving complex mechanical and electrical systems. The agreement includes the following major tasks:

Project Management – Carollo will be responsible for project management activities throughout the life of the project, including project setup, administration, coordination with the City, and managing scope, schedule, and budget.

Digester Building 3D Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) – Carollo will conduct a LiDAR survey to capture the as-built configuration of the interiors of the existing Digester Building and generate a 3D model that can support design and future maintenance.

Permitting Support – Carollo will assist the City in obtaining an Authority to Construct permit from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD), conducting all coordination with the BAAQMD that may be required to secure approval of the design and construction of the project, preparing and submitting the necessary permit applications with supporting technical information, coordinating with BAAQMD during the permit submittal and approval process, and preparing a memorandum summarizing any products or designs constrained by regulations.

Preliminary Design – Carollo will perform preliminary design activities to develop a basis for detailed design that will include a summary of project elements, design criteria, preliminary design drawings, a construction cost estimate, and a construction schedule with discussion of construction sequencing.

Detailed Design – Carollo will prepare detailed construction documents suitable for permitting, advertising, bidding, and construction. Progress submittals will include plans, specifications, cost estimates, calculations, construction schedule, and equipment lists with updated projected lead times for procurement.

Bidding Phase Services – Carollo will attend a pre-bid meeting and site walk scheduled by the City, assist the City in answering technical questions from prospective bidders, and prepare addenda during the bid period.
97 Engineering Services During Construction – Carollo will review Requests for Information, review submittals, prepare design clarifications, and assist with processing change order requests. This task also includes attending meetings, making site observations, and providing on-site start-up and commissioning support.

Project Closeout – Carollo will prepare record drawings.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS

The budget for the WRP Digester Heating Loop Replacement Project WW202315 in the FY2025-30 Capital Improvement Plan covers the cost of this agreement and other project costs including construction, change orders, construction management, project management, and materials testing. The project is funded with Wastewater Replacement Funds (622).

The total fee of $1,783,054 represents approximately 30% of the estimated total cost, which is typical for design and engineering construction support services for a project of this scope. The estimated total budget for this project is $5,634,000, which covers design, permit fees, construction, change orders, materials testing, construction management, and project management.

This maintenance project will not increase operation and maintenance costs.

a. Most problems will be resolved with the initial phone call. b. For problems that cannot be immediately resolved, SRS will work to resolve the problem based on the severity of the problem and the urgency reported by Licensee. භ For critical problems, SRS personnel will work with Licensee until the situation is resolved.
භ For problems that are not critical problems that have a lesser though continuing impact on operations of Licensee (“non-cr itical problems”), SRS will endeavor to provide a solution or work around within 72 hours of the problem being reported to SRS by the Licensee.
භ For problems that are not critical problems and are not non-critical problems (“minor problems”) SRS may, at its discretion, either issue a near term "fix release" of the product or include the fix in the next scheduled product update.

3. Licensee equipment and software responsibilities. Licensee agrees to allow SRS to remotely connect to Licensee’s system when a problem is reported. SRS uses BeyondTrust (formerly Bomgar) remote access software for secure installation and fo llow-on support services. BeyondTrust software provides superior security and does so over an or dinary internet connection via an SRS server that hosts a BeyondTrust security hardware device.

SRS will use this line only with Licensee’s permission. SRS will use this link to examine data files, investigate reported problems and provide updates and corrections when necessary.

1. Coverage Hours. SRS will provide a toll-free phone number for Licensee to call whenever a covered problem occurs. Normal service hours will be Monday-Friday, 8AM-5PM PST, with the exception of New Year’s Day, President’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving Day, Day after Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day (“common holidays”). However, for instances where the Licensee’s system is completely inoperable due to an SRS software problem (“critical problems”) preventing basic system operation, service will be available 24 hours, 7 days a week, common holidays included.

The current contract is due to expire on October 31, 2025.

DISCUSSION
The number of customers visiting the San Francisco Premium Outlets continues to be significant during the holidays. During the Thanksgiving holiday shopping weekend (Black Friday), approximately 115,000 vehicles entered the outlet property. Additionally, three-day holiday shopping weekends such as Memorial Day, Labor Day, and weekends between Thanksgiving and Christmas have increased vehicle traffic flow into the outlets.
139
In addition to the large number of customers visiting the outlets, four smaller retail developments (Republic Square, The Shops, Pacific Pearl, and Fallon Gateway) operate within close proximity during the same high-volume shopping periods. The increased business activity in the vicinity of the outlets, coupled with Republic Square and The Shops, has created a regional draw to the area, creating a necessity for increased traffic and pedestrian management.

Due to the volume of shoppers visiting the area, vehicle traffic often becomes gridlocked during holiday periods. Vehicle traffic backs up into Pleasanton and Dublin and causes congestion on the I-580 freeway and all roadways leading towards the San Francisco Premium Outlets. Traffic management can reduce the negative impacts of vehicle congestion and increase the safety of pedestrians coming/going from adjacent shopping centers, parking lots, and rideshare drop-offs.

In 2017, an RFP was sent out to 6 Bay Area and Central Valley traffic control companies. TPR Traffic Solutions (now National Trench Safety, Inc.) was the only respondent. The remaining companies declined to respond based on the City's requirement to implement temporary traffic control while the signal at the intersection is still fully operational. The other companies would only control traffic if the signal was set to flash. Setting the lights to flash mode did not mitigate the issues. It caused an exponential increase in traffic congestion on the roadways, further delays in the surrounding area, and additional congestion in the turn pockets. The City then entered into a contract with TPR Traffic Solutions (now National Trench Safety, Inc.), which expired in 2021. The City's Purchasing Section inquired with the professional purchasing community of California Association for Public Procurement Officials to determine if other agencies could provide resources for the City's particular needs. No other agencies could provide a company that could meet the requirements. The same process was followed again in August 2025, which yielded the same results.

In light of this fact, the City will rely upon section 2.68.370 (B) 2 (as below) of the City's Contracts and Purchasing Ordinance to eliminate the RFP requirement for this contract.

Contracts and Purchasing Ordinance Section 2.68.370(B) 2

2. Where it is determined that supplies and equipment are unique or available only from one source, so that the quotation procedure required by this section would be meaningless. The basis upon which this determination is made shall be in writing.

FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The total contract amount is not-to-exceed $1,700,000 from November 1, 2025, through October 31, 2030. The FY 2025-27 approved Police Department budget has sufficient funding for the contract's first two years; therefore, no additional appropriation is necessary. Future years' costs will be included in the normal Police Department budget cycle. The City's current Public Safety Agreement with the San Francisco Premium Outlets, LLC, provides for an annual contribution of $307,077 for public safety services at the mall, and 53% of the City’s documented cost for traffic management services provided at the outlets for each event. This contract includes a 7.7% increase in hourly labor rates for years four and five.

Contractor’s obligations to hold harmless, indemnify, and defend shall not be excused because of Contractor’s inability to evaluate Liability or because Contractor evaluates Liability and determines that Contractor is not liable to the claimant. These obligations are independent of, and shall not in any way be limited by, the minimum insurance obligations contained in this Agreement. These obligations shall survive the completion or termination of this Agreement. Contractor must respond within 30 days to the tender of any claim for defense and indemnity by City.
(a) Modification for Construction Contracts. To the extent this Agreement is a “construction contract” covered by California Civil Code section 2782, then Contractor’s duty to indemnify shall not apply in a manner prohibited by California Civil Code section 2782.
(b) Modification for Design Professional Services. To the extent this Agreement is for “design professional services” defined in California Civil Code section 2782.8, then Contractor’s duties to defend and indemnify shall only apply to the extent provided for in California Civil Code section 2782.8(a), unless section 2782.8(a) is not applicable for one of the reasons set forth in 2782.8(e).

21. Force Majeure; Service Delays. Should Contractor’s performance of the Services be obstructed or delayed due to changes in the Services by City, by any default, act, or omission of City, or by strikes, fire, earthquake, or any other Act of God, or by the inability to obtain goods, materials, equipm ent, or labor due to federal government restrictions arising out of defense or war programs, then Contractor’s time for performance may, at City’s sole discretion, be extended for such periods as may be agreed upon by City and Contractor. Nothing in this section restricts City’s authority in Section 14 to terminate this Agreement.

22. Acceptance of Final Payment. Contractor’s acceptance of final payment will release City from any and all claims and liabilities for compensation under this Agreement.

23. Acceptance of Work. City’s acceptance of, or payment to Contractor for, the Services does not release Contractor from its responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or competency of the Services, nor do the actions constitute an assumption of Contractor’s responsibility or liability by City for any defect or error in the Services.

24. Conflict of Interest. Contractor represents that no City employee or official has a financial interest in Contractor. Contractor shall not offer, encourage, or accept any financial interest in any part of Contractor's business by or from a City employee or official during the term of this Agreement or as a result of being awarded this Agreement. If any of the Services are paid by reimbursement from an agreement between City and a private party, Contractor represents that it has not performed any work for that private party during the twelve-month period prior to the execution of this Agreement, and that it shall not negotiate, offer or accept any contract for services from that party during the term of this Agreement.

25. Economic Disclosure. Contractor shall comply with City’s local conflict of interest code implementing the California Political Reform Act and shall prepare and file an economic disclosure statement if the Services involve making, or participation in making, governmental decisions or financial decisions by City that may have a material effect on Contractor’s financial interests. Wh ile it is Contractor’s sole responsibility to evaluate its conflicts of interest, Contractor nevertheless agrees to prepare and file an economic disclosure statement if requested by City.

26. Levine Act Compliance. California Government Code section 84308 (Levine Act) prohibits City officers from participating in any action related to a contract, license, permit, or entitlement if the officer receives political contributions from a party, or participant, or agent thereof, that totals more than $500 within the twelve months preceding the decision or within the twelve months following the date of the final decision.

Contractor shall review and complete as necessary the City’s California Levine Act Disclosure Statement that can be obtained from the City Clerk.

27. Use of Recycled Products. If fitness and quality are equal, then Consultant shall utilize recycl ed products consistent with the City’s Environmentally Preferrable Purchasing and Practices Policy, and as defined in California Public Contract Code Section 12200 for the Services, instead of nonrecycled products whenever recycled products are available at the same or a lesser cost than nonrecycled items.

Contractor has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution of this Agreement, and expressly represents that the person signing this Agreement on behalf of Contractor has received and accepted the authority to sign and execute this Agreement on behalf of Contractor. Upon the Effective Date, this Agreement shall constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of Contractor, enforceable against Contractor in accordance with its terms, which authorization is ratified and confirmed upon Contractor’s acceptance of the first compensation payment by City

31. No Subcontracting and No Assignment. Contractor’s unique personal competence, experience, specialized perso nal knowledge, trade skills, and reputation were a substantial inducement to City for the award of this Agreement to Contractor, therefore no part of the Services may be assigned or subcontracted without City’s prior written consent. For the purposes of this section, a change of fifty percent or more in the ownership or control of Contractor constitutes an assignment.

32. Remedies. All remedies permitted or available under this Agreement, or at law or in equity, are cumulative and alternative, and the invocation of a right or remedy will not be construed to waive or elect a remedy with respect to any other available right or remedy. As a condition precedent to commencing legal action involving a claim or dispute against City arising from this Agreement, Contractor must present a written claim to City in accordance with Livermore Municipal Code Chapter 3.40 Claims Administration.

33. Work Eligibility. Contractor warrants that only personnel authorized to work in the United States pursuant to the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 and other applicable laws shall be provided by Contractor for the performance of the Services.
