Appliance, Electrical and Garage Fire Safety
• Always plug major appliances - refrigerators, stoves, washers and dryers - directly into a wall outlet.
• Install tamper-resistant electrical outlets if you have young children. • Use power strips that have internal overload protection. • Store oil, gasoline, paints, propane and varnishes in a shed away from your home. • A 20-minute fire-rated door that is self-closing and self-latching from the garage into the house.

Page 10 ends

Batter½ Candle, and Cooking Fire Safety
• Stop using lithium-ion batteries if you notice an odor, change in color, too much heat, change in shape, leaking or odd noises.
• Don't put lithium-ion batteries in direct sunlight or keep them in hot cars. This is a fire ris_k. • Blow out candles when you leave a room or home, or when you go to bed. • Keep candles at least 12 inches away from anything that burns. • Turn pot handles toward the back of the stove so that no one can bump them or pull them over. • Watch what you are cooking. Fires start when the heat is too high. If you see any smoke or the grease starts to boil, turn the burner off.
• Stand by your pan. If you leave the kitchen, turn the burner off.

Page 11 ends

Fire Safety for Children
• Have a plan for young children who cannot get outside by themselves. You will need to wake babies and very young children and help them get out. In your plan, talk about who will help each child get out safely.
• It is important to find 2 ways out of every room in your home in case the first exit is blocked or dangerous to use.
• Stay low and get to your exit if you smell or see smoke or if your smoke alarm sounds. • Stay outside. Don't go back inside for anything.

Page 12 ends

Fire Safety for People with Disabilities
• Physical disability was the second leading human factor contributing to fatalities in residential buildings (30%).
• If possible, live near an exit.
• If you are deaf or hard of hearing, use smoke alarms with a vibrating pad, flashing light or strobe light. These accessories start when your alarm sounds. • Have smoke alarms on every level of your home, inside bedrooms and outside sleeping areas. • If you live in a multistory home, sleep on the first floor.

Page 13 ends

Fire Safety for Older Adults
• In 2020, older adults (65+) in the United States had a 2.5 times greater risk of dying in a fire than the total population.
• Discuss your fire escape plan with family and neighbors. Contact your building manager or fire department to discuss your plan if you need extra help escaping. • Caregivers should check the smoke alarms of those who are unable to do it themselves. • Use a timer to remind you that you are cooking.
• If you use a walker or wheelchair, check all exits to be sure that you can go through the doorways.

Page 14 ends

Hoarding and Fire Safety
• Personal items can crowd cooking equipment, making it unsafe to cook. • Personal items can crowd heating equipment, putting you at risk of having a fire. • Blocked windows and doors make it difficult for firefighters to get into your home to fight the fire and search for occupants.
• Keep doorways and windows clear for escape in case there is a fire. This will also prevent injuries from falling over excessive personal items.

Cultures Across Borders
ayor Jose Am Moran

Page 19 ends

A sister city, county, or state
relationship is a broad-based, longterm partnership between two communities in two countries.·A
relationship is officially recognized
after the highest elected or
appointed official from both
communities sign off on an
agreement to become sister cities.

Each sister city organization is
independent and pursues the
activities and thematic areas that
are important to them and their
community including municipal,
business, trade, educational, and
cultural exchanges and projects
with their sister city.

Page 20 ends

Sister cities programs foster cultural exchange and diplomacy through city-to-city partnerships, promoting understanding and friendship between different cultures.

The concept of sister cities originated after World War II to promote peace and reconciliation between former enemies. Over time, it has evolved into a platform for cultural exchange and economic cooperation.

Page 22 ends

Sister cities provide opportunities for cultural immersion, educational exchanges, and economic partnerships. They also contribute to global understanding and peacebuilding.

Many sister city partnerships have led to successful collaborations in areas such as education, arts and culture, and sustainable development. These success stories demonstrate the power of cross-border cooperation.

Conclusion
Sister cities play a vital role in connecting
and bridging cultures across borders. By
fostering mutual understanding and
collaboration, these partnerships
contribute to a more peaceful and
inclusive world.

STAFF REPORT
Adopt Resolution Approving Contract with TurboData systems to Process Parking and Administrative Citations
April 16, 2024
John Ramirez, Acting Chief of Police
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2024- _, City Council direct the Interim City Manager to enter into an agreement with TURBODATA Systems for citation processing services.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Livingston currently contracts with Duncan Solutions for the processing of all parking citations, while city staff processes administrative citations. Duncan Solutions has announced they will no longer process citations for the City of Livingston after April 19, 2024 as the company is being 'decommissioned.' If needed, the City does have the ability to issue administrative citations in lieu of parking citations, however it is labor intensive for each citation for staff to manually process the citations. Once the department received notification from Duncan Solutions, staff began reaching out to other citation processing agencies. On April 15 1,
2024, staff was directed not to issue parking citations until we are able to get a new contract in place.

Over the last year, the department has issued 446 parking citations and 21 administrative citations for a total of 467 citations for the year. The department has reached out to various police agencies to solicit information on companies that they use for the prJcessing of their parking citations. Staff was able to contact two companies and receive information. The companies were TurboData systems and Data Ticket Inc. Data ticket is used by the City of Merced and TurboData systems is used by many bay area agencies. Both companies were very similar in history and services provided. Both have been in business for about 30 years with hundreds of clients across the state. Both provide services for the processing of parking citations, administrative citations, and permits.

In conducting reference checks, the Fresno State Police Department was very happy with the company TurboData systems. According to the parking and transportation manager Derrick Brantley, the product is very user friendly with great customer service. Derrick also advised they have been with TurboData systems for over twenty years and the company is well known with better prices than the competitors. The department has many dedicated Parking Enforcement Officers which utilize electronic and paper citations.

The fees and services all vary with a standard monthly minimum charge of $400 for Data Ticket and $400 for TurboData systems. Given the number of bqth parking and administrative citations issued by the department annually, we would likely not be charged the extra to achieve the minimum of $400. One important feature that both companies have is the ability to coordinate with the Department of Motor Vehicles for reporting of delinquent or defaulted fines. The city {CWl 27453.I}

Page 35 ends

does not currently have that ability. Another important service that TurboData systems provides is ensuring the State Controller's Office receives the surcharges from the County generated from each citation. The Department was recently notified that a county audit was performed, and it was discovered the surcharges have not be paid by several municipalities in Merced County. TurboData systems offers a Joint/ Escrow Banking Service for $150 per month for this service.

DISCUSSION:

Two separate quotes were obtained from parking cite companies.

Monthly Manual Electronic Revenue A<iTiin Admin
minimum Process collected Manual Electronic
Process
Turbo Data $400.00 $0.70 $0.50 25% $5 00 $3.00
Data Ticket $400.00 $0.70 $0.60 28% $7 to $13 $5 to $11 Handheld $145.00

FISCAL IMPACT
Depending on the number of citations issued and equipment if any, the costs to achieve the minimum could range from $4,800 to $6,540 per year. These costs can be offset by any revenues generated. The service would also save staff time processing administrative citations.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Data Ticket, Inc. is a California Corporation that provides administrative citation processing and collection services, administrative hearing coordination, accounting services, customer service and a web-based solution that manages the entire process.

Data Ticket has been providing these services for California Agencies for over 18 years.

Data Ticket was incorporated in California in 1989. We provide expertise to ensure that citations get processed and collected in a timely manner for over 350 Agencies, nationwide.

Data Ticket is located in Irvine, California and employs 52 full time individuals. Our offices are always open to our clients and we encourage in-person communication on a regular basis. Data Ticket, Inc. is a California certified Small Business Enterprise and a California certified Woman-Owned Business Enterprise.

Data Ticket fully understands we are in a service industry that we consider our Client's acceptance of our software and services paramount to our success. When we partner with each Client, the goal is to ensure that each Client is treated as a unique entity, that our Client's Patrons are treated with respect and care, and that our Clients gain compliance and realize increased revenue collection through our comprehensive administrative citation management program.

We attribute much of our success to the fact that our Clients and their Patrons are always treated politely and professionally. Providing easy, clear access for our Clients and their Patrons is of primary importance because it encourages communication between all interested parties, transparency in the data processing for our Clients and prompt payment by Patrons.

Our web-based Solution provides patrons with access to lookup their citation(s), pay for their citation(s), get specific information about their citation(s), appeal their citations and attach supporting documentation and print a receipt; all online, all via real-time data. In • addition, the Agency's Patrons will have access to a toll-free, bi-lingual customer service department who will answer general and specific questions about each citation and will accept payment over the phone via a real-time interface. Finally, patrons will also be able to submit payment and appeals to the Agency or to Data Ticket via mail or in person at the Agency's preferred location. All of the types of access we allow are intended to make the process simple for the Agency's patrons so they pay their citations in a timely manner.

Access to the data for Agency Staff is equally as important as is access for the Agency's Patrons. Our Solution provides online access to our Clients to lookup citations, enter notes on citations, process voids, dismissals, reductions, refunds, refund requests, view online reports, print receipts and process and review the adjudication process. Each capability is provided based on the level of access each person is granted.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
and accepted by the bank. Payments are immediately updated to the citation records and receipts can be printed verifying payment for the payer.

Data Ticket's Solution is Payment Card Industry (PCI) certified and our Solution is subjected to both quarterly, scheduled scans of our database as well as unscheduled scans, thus providing the ultimate security for our Clients as well as their patrons.

Our Solution offers all adjudication services via our online appeals website. This sets us apart from other vendors as we actually allow patrons to place their citations on hold and submit their full explanation and attach backup documentation via the web. This allows patrons to appeal their citation(s) online only if they are eligible to appeal based on the rules set forth by each Agency and the State of California. Once the appeal is submitted, either online or via U.S. Mail, our Solution processes the request and makes it immediately available for an Administrative Hearing with a certified, independent hearing officer. These individuals review or hear the cases and enter judgments that automatically mark the citation and generate written notification of the results. This notification informs the appellant of the decision and provides additional information if the individual wishes to continue his/her appeal and/or refund information and/or court filing instructions, depending on the appeal decision.

Our Solution provides an Online Reporting capability that allows our Clients to generate and print real-time and month-end reports via the web. These reports can be saved to a network, PC or external drive, copied into Excel for additional manipulation as the Agency wishes or they can simply be viewed. These reports are available to the Agency as long as the Agency is a Client. In addition, when the Agency needs ad hoc reports or additional data, Data Ticket will provide those at no cost.

Data Ticket is experienced at working backlog and delinquent citations, which all agencies seem to have. We have years of experience collecting from "old databases and citations", and we do it carefully and professionally, with the utmost care given to the agency image and collection attitude. Since 2002, Data Ticket, Inc. has been offering additional collections through the Franchise Tax Board's lnteragency Intercept Program on behalf of our Clients in order to provide an additional opportunity for collection of delinquent California debts. Many of our agencies have been participating in this program since we began offering this interface and they have all been impressed with the returnrate on collections from this submission.

And finally, we offer Advanced Collections by partnering with a local Los Angeles collections agency. For those hard-to-collect debts that have not responded or are not eligible for DMV holds, Delinquent Collections or FTB Collections, Advanced Collections provides a final effort to collect on behalf of our Agencies, while our Solution remains the system of record and provides a full audit trail from issue date to final collection effort! 21Page

Our web-based Solution provides patrons with access to lookup their citation(s), pay for their citation(s), get specific information about their citation(s), appeal their citations and attach supporting documentation and print a receipt; all online, all via real-time data. In addition, the Agency's Patrons will have access to a toll-free, bi-lingual customer service department who will answer general and specific questions about each citation and will accept payment over the phone via a real-time interface. Finally, patrons will also be able to submit payment and appeals to the Agency or to Data Ticket via mail or in person at the Agency's preferred location. All of the types of access we allow are intended to make the process simple for the Agency's patrons so they pay their citations in a timely manner.

Access to the data for Agency Staff is equally as important as is access for the Agency's Patrons. Our Solution provides online access to our Clients to lookup citations, enter notes on citations, process voids, dismissals, reductions, refunds, refund requests, view online reports, print receipts and process and review the adjudication process. Each capability is provided based on the level of access each person is granted.

Data Ticket allows for real-time processing of payments via VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. Credit/debit card payments are accepted online, via phone with a customer service representative or using our state of the art IVR system or via paper. 11 Pa g < PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Website payments are updated in the system real-time, as soon as they are authorized and accepted by the bank. Payments are immediately updated to the citation records and receipts can be printed verifying payment for the payer.

Data Ticket's Solution is Payment Card Industry (PCI) certified and our Solution is subjected to both quarterly, scheduled scans of our database as well as unscheduled scans, thus providing the ultimate security for our Clients as well as their patrons.

Our Solution offers all adjudication services via our online appeals website. We allow patrons to place their citations on hold and submit their full explanation and attach backup documentation via the web. This allows patrons to appeal their citation(s) online only if they are eligible to appeal based on the rules set forth by each Agency and the State of California. Once the appeal is submitted, either on line or via U.S. Mail, our Solution processes the request and makes it immediately available for an Administrative Review Disposition or it is immediately available to be scheduled for an Administrative Hearing with a certified, independent hearing officer. These individuals review or hear the cases and enter judgments that automatically mark the citation and generate written notification of the results. This notification informs the appellant of the decision and provides additional information if the individual wishes to continue his/her appeal and/or refund information and/or court filing instructions, depending on the appeal decision.

Our Solution provides an Online Reporting capability that allows our Clients to generate and print real-time and month-end reports via the web. These reports can be saved to a network, PC or external drive, copied into Excel for additional manipulation as the Agency wishes or they can simply be viewed. These reports are available to the Agency as long as the Agency is a Client. In addition, when the Agency needs ad hoc reports or additional data, Data Ticket will provide those at no cost.

Data Ticket is experienced at working backlog and delinquent citations, which all agencies seem to have. We have years of experience collecting from "old databases and citations", and we do it carefully and professionally, with the utmost care given to the agency image and collection attitude. Since 2002, Data Ticket, Inc. has been offering additional collections through the Franchise Tax Board's lnteragency Intercept Program on behalf of our Clients in order to provide an additional opportunity for collection of delinquent California debts. Many of our agencies have been participating in this program since we began offering this interface and they have all been impressed with the returnrate on collections from this submission.

On behalf of Data Ticket, thank you for the opportunity to provide Parking Citation Processing Collections, Services and Technology as well we excellent Client and Customer Service!

L. Out of State Citations - TDS shall process citations for non-California license plates by entering the citation information into the system database and reporting them along with all other citations on the database with the standard reports. If they become delinquent, requests for registered owner information will be sent to the appropriate out-of-state DMV. The Notice of Intent will be generated to the registered owner and the fine amount requested. TDS will incur all costs for out of state name retrieval, including out-of-state DMV fees and charges.

Each customer receives their own credit card postlog which shows in detail which citations were paid and for what amount, along with the deposit slip from the bank or the ACH deposit email showing that these funds have been deposited into the customer's account. Should there be any charge backs to a merchant account, the funds are pulled directly from the Turbo Data master account and the citation will be reactivated, much like a bounced check. The violator will be sent a notice and will then proceed to DMV hold. TDS will provide all services regarding reconciliation, reactivation of charge backs, etc. Customer will not be involved in the daily processing.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE

REPLACEMENT FOR LIVINGSTON POLICE DEPARTMENT CODE

ENFORCEMENT/ANIMAL CONTROL VEHICLE
MEETING DATE:

PREPARED BY:

APPROVED By:

April 16, 2024
John Ramirez, Acting Chief of Police
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2024- _ , approving the purchase and replacement of City of Livingston Police Department Animal Control vehicle which is designed strictly for use as an Animal Control vehicle.

BACKGROUND:

The current Animal Control Vehicle is a 2006 Ford F-250 and has been in service for 18 years with approximately 114,000 "city" miles. The vehicle was designated specifically for Animal Control and is retrofitted with numerous cages for the purpose of transporting animals. The vehicle is an older model and recently has been experiencing many mechanical issues. The vehicle has become increasingly expensive to maintain and keep operational.

In March 2023 the City of Livingston created a full time Code Enforcement Officer position that also absorbed the existing duties of the Animal Control Officer. The current vehicle is exclusively set up for Animal Control. The current Code Enforcement/Animal Control Officer would be better outfitted with a vehicle that serves as a dual purpose.

The purchase of a new vehicle is requested to meet the dual-purpose need of the new position.

The current set up does not allow for any other use than the transportation of animals. The new vehicle could also be used for additional police department functions and use if needed.

DISCUSSION:

Three separate quotes were obtained for a 2023/2024 Chevy Silverado.

Base Price Tax, License Sub-Total Equipment Lights and TOTAL & Fees Install Graphics
American $40,400.00 $4,135.44 $44,535.44 $1 ,600.00 $2987.15 $49,122.59 Chevrolet
Merced $42,250.00 $3,730.48 $45,857.23 $1 ,600.00 $2987.15 $50,444.38 Chevrolet
Chase $45,090.00 $3,501 .07 $48,685.82 $1,600.00 $2987.15 $53,272.97 Chevrolet

STAFF REPORT
Resolution Approving the purchase of six (6) solar light poles from Fonroche Lighting America, in the amount of $31,107 and Authorizing the Interim City Manager to execute all required documents.

April 16, 2024
Anthony Chavarria, Director of Public Works
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Livingston approving the purchase of six (6) solar light poles from Fonroche Lighting America, in the amount of $31,107 and authorize the Interim City Manager to execute all required documents.

BACKGROUND:

On February 2024 Interim Chief of Police Ramirez conducted a safety assessment for City Hall. One of the areas of concern in the safety assessment report was the poor lighting towards the back end of City Hall and the employee parking lot. The poorly lit areas are frequently used by transients and most recently an employee vehicle was vandalized. The employee parking lot is used by city personnel, the Police Department and Fire Department. The inadequate lighting in the surrounding areas of City Hall poses a significant risk to the safety and security of employees.

DISCUSSION:

The Livingston Municipal Code requires formal bidding procedures for all purchases over $10,000 unless the formal bidding process is undesirable, impossible, unavailing or incongruous as determined by the City Manager. Section 1-11-6 waiver of formal bid procedures of the Municipal Code states that formal bid procedure of items over $10,000 can only be waived if the purchase is (A) Of urgent necessity for the preservation of life, health or property, (B) Waived by Council resolution passed by at least four affirmative votes; and/or (C) Available from only one source. Sole source must be adequately justified.

Fonroche Lighting America meets sole source criteria justification due to being the only manufacturer in the World who has developed extremely robust 10-12 year NiMH battery technology and can guarantee reliability performance every night of year through localized solar studies and system sizing.

They are the only manufacturer with a large base of installed lights on tower control feedback, providing more than ?millions data points of monitoring feedback, all for continuous reliability improvements.

They are also the only manufacturer in the world doing climate chamber testing confirming system reliability and robustness.

To address the safety concerns outlined in the safety assessment and mitigate the risks associated with poor lighting, it is recommended that the City Council approve the purchase of six (6) street light poles from Fonroche Lighting America. These light poles will be strategically installed in the areas identified as poorly lit, enhancing visibility and deterrence against criminal activities.

Page 99 ends

FISCAL IMPACT:

The street solar lights will be expended from Municipal Facilities and reimbursed by Merced County supervisor Espinoza's discretionary fund.

ATTACHMENTS:

The global leader in solar lighting
Fonroche Lighting America is proud to be part of Fonroche Lighting, the global leader in off-grid solar street lighting. The deep resources and broader scope of an established market leader lets us take solar lighting even further, from the State Treasury in Salem, Oregon to the West African Republic of Senegal. Over lS0,000 Fonroche Smartlight systems have been deployed worldwide.

With five offices in the USA and installations across the country, Fonroche is never far away. Some solution providers enter the solar lighting market-then move on. We're a reliable partner that sticks around. You get the responsive support and smart answers that you need now-and the confidence that we'll be here for you far in the future. And we can take on projects of any size, from local to national. That's why so many municipalities, military and federal facilities, tribes, commercial properties, and developers trust us to deliver the full promise of solar lighting.

Feasibility of your solar lighting project
Jra FON~OCHE \t3' lighting AMERICA
To guarantee powerful, cost-effective off-grid lighting, Fonroche operates its own design offices.

We assess the feasibility of each project in four stages:

1. First, we define your lighting requirements.

2. Next, we analyze the last 10 years of local weather
data to determine how much energy our PV panels
will generate.

3. On this basis, we calculate what size and how
many products we need to install.

4. Finally, our sales team draws up a cost estimate.

Rightsized to your specific needs
1 Project
Simulation of product(s) over
a typical year
Our teams have developed a solar sizing
software application, which we use to
determine which products will best meet your
needs. We then simulate how these products
operate over a typical year, based on the
average conditions for the last decade.

Results
Based on our experience, we propose the
optimal solution in terms of lighting
performance and cost effectiveness.

Jra FON~OCHE
\!_3/ lighting AMERICA
1 Study
10-Vear Analysis of local
weather data
We use the PVsyst software suite and Meteonorm
historical time series irradiation data to calculate the real-world operating conditions - orientation and
tilt angle of the panel, shadow, etc. - and external
parameters, such as direct and diffuse irradiation,
temperature and the solar calendar.
rn,
Sizing the project to your needs
We use a set of key criteria to optimally specify your
project:
• Average battery charge level over the year
• Minimum charge level
• Comparative analysis of energy generated by the
panel vs. energy used by the system
• Worst-case scenario (lowest irradiation, longest
night)

STAFF REPORT
Authorizing and Approving a Services Agreement with NEOGOV for the purchase of Applicant Tracking System Recruit Module April 16, 2024
Arcelia Cruz, Human Resources Coordinator
Christopher Lopez; Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends council adopt the resolution authorizing the Interim City Manager to execute a two-year service agreement with NEOGOV for the purchase of applicant tracking system Recruit Module.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

NEOGOV Recruit Module is a cloud-based module that provides public sector organizations with Human Resources Management System (HRMS) solutions by automating and supporting the entire employee lifecycle to include recruitment, hiring and onboarding processes in one centralized platform. NEOGOV is the leading provider of HRMS software for public sector organizations.

Currently, the Human Resources Division lacks an advanced HRMS platform, which has resulted in a highly fragmented and manually driven work process that is very inefficient and duplicative. The approval and implementation of NEOGOV Recruit Module will significantly upgrade the City's current employment application process and employment cycle from initial job advertising through onboarding by providing a more streamline and automated solution that will result in a more efficient and effective recruitment process and will provide a better employee experience over the full employment cycle.

The billing for the first-year service agreement will include the following fees: $5,500.00 for implementation cost to Insight Module and Onboard Module. $6,073.20 for the annual subscriptions to Governmentjobs.com, Insight and Onboard. This represents a 40% discounted rate in the first-year licensing fees and a discounted rate from $7,260.to $5,500.00 for the setup. For the second-year service agreement the annual subscriptions for Governmentjobs.com, Insight and Onboard will be $10,628.10, no pricing incentives for the second year. The grand total for the two-year service agreement will cost $22,201.30.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The two-year service agreement with NEOGOV Recruit Module will cost a total of $22,201.30.

This cost to fund this service agreement is available in the current FY 23/24 Human Resources Budget.

A 11£000V Comt>ont
If Customer is a Government Customer, the following Government Customer Addendum ("Government Addendum") forms part of the Services Agreement, and in the case of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and provisions of this Addendum and any other provision of the Services Agreement, the terms of this Government Addendum shall control. For purposes hereof, a "Government Customer" means a Customer which is a (a) U.S. Federal agency, (b) state government, agency, department, or political subdivision (including a city, county or municipal corporation), or ( c) instrumentality of any of the foregoing (including a municipal hospital or municipal hospital district, police or fire department, public library, park district, state college or university, Indian tribal economic development organization, or port authority).

1. Applicability. The provisions of this Addendum shall apply only if Customer is a Government Customer under the Services Agreement.

2. Termination for Non-Appropriation of Funds. If Customer is subject to federal, state or local law which makes Customer's financial obligations under this Services Agreement contingent upon sufficient appropriation of funds by the applicable legislature (or other appropriate governmental body), and if such funds are not forthcoming or are insufficient due to failure of such appropriation, then Customer will have the right to terminate the Services Agreement at no additional cost and with no penalty by giving prior written notice documenting the lack offunding. Customer will provide at least thirty (30) days advance written notice of such termination. Customer will use reasonable efforts to ensure appropriated funds are available. It is expressly agreed that Customer shall not activate this non-appropriation provision for its convenience or to circumvent the requirements of this Agreement, but only as an emergency fiscal measure during a substantial fiscal crisis, which affects generally its fiscal operations. If Customer terminates the Services Agreement under this Section 2, Customer agrees not to replace the Services with functionally similar products or services for a period of one year after the termination of the Services Agreement.

3. Indemnification. If Customer is prohibited by federal, state or local law from agreeing to hold harmless or indemnify third parties, Section 14(a) and the indemnification provision included in Section 17 of the Services Agreement shall not apply to Customer, to the extent disallowed by applicable law.

If the Customer is subject to federal or state public records laws, including laws styled as open records, freedom of information, or sunshine laws ("Open Records Laws") the confidentiality requirements of Section 12 of the Services Agreement apply only to the extent permitted by Open Records Laws applicable to the Customer. This Section is not intended to be a waiver of any of the provisions of the applicable Open Records Laws, including, without limitation, the requirement for the Customer to provide notice and opportunity for NEOGOY to assert an exception to disclosure requirements in accordance with the applicable Open Records laws.

5. Cooperative Purchasing. As permitted by law, it is understood and agreed by Customer and NEOGOV that any (i) federal, state, local, tribal, or other municipal government (including all administrative agencies, departments, and offices thereof); (ii) any business enterprise in which a federal, state, local, tribal or other municipal entity has a full, majority, or other controlling interest; and/or (iii) any public school (including without limitation K-12 schools, colleges, universities, and vocational schools) (collectively referred to as the "New Entity") may purchase the Services specified herein in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. It is also understood and agreed that each New Entity will establish its own contract with NEOGOV, be invoiced therefrom and make its own payments to NEOGOV in accordance with the terms of the contract established between the New Entity and NEOGOY. With respect to any purchases by a New Entity pursuant to this Section, Customer: (i) shall not be construed as a dealer, re-marketer, representative, partner or agent of any type of NEOGOY, or such New Entity; (ii) shall not be obligated, liable or responsible for any order made by New Entities or any employee thereof under the agreement or for any payment required to be made with respect to such order; and (iii) shall not be obliged, liable or responsible for any failure by any New Entity to comply with procedures or requirements of applicable law or to obtain the due authorization and approval necessary to purchase under the agreement. Termination of this Agreement shall in no way limit NEOGOV from soliciting, entering into, or continuing a contractual relationship with any New Entity. Any New Entity who purchases Services under this Section hereby represents that is has the authority to use this Services Agreement for the purchase and that the use of the Services Agreement for the purchase is not prohibited by law or procurement regulations applicable to the New Entity.

Consideration of an Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Livingston Repealing Chapter 3, Underground Utility Districts, of Title 9 and Replacing it with Chapter 3, Underground, Utilities, of Title 9 of the City of Livingston Municipal Code.

April 16, 2024
Roy Santos, City Attorney
Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Waive the Second Reading of the Ordinance by Title Only, Open the Public Hearing, Close the Public Hearing and Adopt the Ordinance as Presented.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:

In 2023, the Mayor and City Council directed the City Attorney's Office to amend the Municipal Code relating to Underground Utilities. The Council directed this item to comply with updated state laws as well as the previous code requiring undergrounding of utilities for infill lots, or in the event of rebuilding due to fire or other events outside of the control of the property owner.

This requirement had the effect of adding substantial costs for infill development and for those projects in neighborhoods in which underground utilities were not previously done.

The revised code requires new developments to underground utilities rather than by the use of poles and overhead lines while also in accordance with the California Public Utilities Commission rules and regulations. The requirement applies to electrical and telecommunications connections between utility company distribution lines and all proposed structures on a site, and all new installations that distribution utilities within a site.

Exceptions to the undergrounding requirements apply to the following:

1. New structures on parcels of five acres or larger, or requiring uninterrupted utility runs of five hundred feet or more;

2. Public utility distribution service to the edge of the lot, except in an underground utility district or where seventy-five (75%) percent of the lots on the street within one thousand (1,000ft) feet of the site area already developed, and have overhead service from the utility company distribution source to the residences;

3. Where underground installation may cause a substantial adverse environmental impact, as determined by the City; and

4. Temporary overhead extensions for use during construction and/or for the purpose of testing the power supply.

If the Council chooses not to adopt the proposed ordinance, applicants would be required to adhere to the existing ordinance which is attached as a reference.

Page 1 of 2 ends
Page 142 ends

Additional options for the Council to consider include the following:

1. Not approving this ordinance. Applicants would be required to underground utilities per the existing ordinance.

2. Directing the Attorney's Office to modify the proposed ordinance and bring back with modification.

3. Other direction as provided by the Council.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact with the adoption of the ordinance.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVINGSTON REPEALING AND REPLACING IN ITS ENTIRETY CHAPTER 3 OF TITLE 9 OF THE

LIVINGSTON MUNICIPAL CODE PERTAINING TO UNDERGROUND UTILITIES WHEREAS, the City of Livingston ("the City") has the authority, under its police power, to enact regulations for the public peace, morals, and welfare of the City, California Constitution Article XI, section 7; and
WHEREAS, the City wishes to enact regulations governing undergrounding of utilities at this time; and
WHEREAS, absent clear regulation there is a potential threat to the public peace, health, and safety, and, unless the City takes action to regulate it, the secondary impacts; and WHEREAS, the City has a compelling interest in protecting the public health, safety, and welfare of its citizens, residents, visitors and businesses, and in preserving the peace and quiet of the neighborhoods within the City by regulating underground utilities; and WHEREAS, nothing in this Ordinance shall be construed to: (1) allow any person to engage in conduct that endangers others or causes a public nuisance; or (2) allow any activity which is illegal under state or federal law.

NOW THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Livingston does hereby ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. The above recitals are incorporated are hereby by reference.

SECTION 2. The Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that it will have a significant effect on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines § 1506l(b)(3).) It is also exempt because it consists of regulations and restrictions on activities to assure the maintenance, restoration, or enhancement of natural resources and the environment by prohibiting environmentally destructive components ofumegulated cannabis cultivation. (CEQA Guidelines §§ 15307 and 15308.)
SECTION 3. Chapter 3, of Title 9, of the Livingston Municipal Code is repealed in its entirety and shall read as follows:

Chapter3

UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
Section 9-3-1 Underground Utilities.

Utilities serving new development shall be installed underground rather than by the use of poles and overhead lines, and where applicable shall be installed in accordance with California Public Utilities Commission rules and regulation. This requirement applies to electrical service and telecommunications (including cable TV, telephone and data transmission) connections 01424.0001/971940.1 1

Page 144 ends

between utility company distribution lines and all proposed structures on a site, and all new installations that distribute utilities within a site. This section does not apply to the following:
(a) New structures on parcels of five acres or larger, or requiring uninterrupted utility runs of five hundred feet or more;
(b) Public utility distribution service to the edge of the lot, except in an underground utility district or where seventy-five (75%) percent of the lots on the street within one thousand (1,000ft) feet of the site area already developed, and have overhead service from the utility company distribution source to the residences; ( c) Where underground installation may cause a substantial adverse environmental impact, as determined by the City;
( d) Temporary overhead extensions for use during construction and/or for the purpose of testing the power supply.

This section may require an applicant to underground utilities from the utility company distribution source to the site, as well as on the site itself. The utility service provider should be contacted for information on the Public Utility Commission's rules and regulations regarding the undergrounding of utilities. Poles and overhead lines other than those allowed by this section are allowable subject to Minor Use Permit approval, provided that the City first finds that either topographical, soil or similar physical conditions or the distance to the utility company distribution source make the use of underground utilities unreasonable or impractical.

Section 9-3-2 Administrative Penalties.
(a) The administrative citation penalty for all violations of this chapter, within a rolling twelve-month period, deemed misdemeanors under the Livingston Municipal Code shall be as follows:
(I) First administrative citation: two hundred fifty dollars per violation; (2) Second administrative citation: five hundred dollars per violation; (3) Third administrative citation: one thousand dollars per violation; and (4) One thousand dollars per violation for each subsequent administrative citation. (b) The administrative citation penalty for all violations of this chapter, within a rolling twelve-month period, deemed infractions under the Livingston Municipal Code shall be as follows:
01424.0001/971940.1
(1) First administrative citation: one hundred dollars per violation; (2) Second administrative citation: two hundred dollars per violation; (3) Third administrative citation: five hundred dollars per violation; and ( 4) Five hundred dollars per violation for each subsequent administrative citation. 2

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Discussion and Direction on City of Livingston Fire Services MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
FROM: Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Discussion and Direction on City of Livingston Fire Services BACKGROUND:

On February 7, 2023, the Livingston City Council was scheduled to discuss an agreement with Merced County for enhanced staffing at Station 96 in the City of Livingston. The agenda item proposed staffing at a 2-0 level at a cost of $399,903 to the city for the increased staffing. The proposed cost to the City of Livingston was proposed based on the call for service volume and was the rationale for the City’s proportion of costs. That evening, the then Acting City Manager pulled the agenda item from discussion.

Within a couple of months, Merced County notified the City that it was increasing the contract amount to $750,000 (from $399,903). Currently, Livingston residents contribute approximately $1,007,010 in fire parcel tax revenues to the County which it currently retains. The Livingston parcel tax revenues in excess of $1M plus the proposed $750,000 would mean Livingston resident contributions would total $1.8M. Based on total station costs of approximately $2.3M, city residents would be required to pay nearly 80% of the total station costs. Station 96 currently responds to Livingston calls for service as well as County calls for service. In 2022, the total calls for service totaled 61% Livingston calls, and 39% County resident calls.

Once presented with this information of the increase to $750,000, the City Manager’s Office questioned why the City of Livingston would be paying nearly 80% of the costs ($1M parcel tax + $750,000) when Station 96 personnel responds to city and county calls.

Ideally, the City would pay for its fair proportion of calls, and the County would pay for its fair share. Legally, the City has an obligation to its tax payers to ensure it is not covering costs in excess of what it should be paying.

In late January 2024, the City was notified that the County had “drafted” a proposal to potentially close the Livingston station as well as numerous other stations. This document was provided as an attachment to the February 6, 2024, meeting of the Mayor and City Council to undertake community wide polling for a potential sales tax measure since the City does not have an additional $750,000 in revenues. The City Council approved the requested action, and the City will soon kickoff the community wide polling.

The City of Livingston has always understood the need for additional funding necessary for a higher level of staffing and remains open to discussing an equitable arrangement which does not unfairly burden Livingston taxpayers.

DISCUSSION:

On April 9, 2024, the Merced County Board of Supervisors had a discussion related to the potential closure of Livingston Station 96. The Board of Supervisors ultimately continued the conversation until May 7, 2024.

At this Board meeting, the City Manager’s Office and City Council members voiced their concern, thoughts, and questions to the Board of Supervisors related to the potential action.

CITY OF LIVINGSTON PROPOSALS:

Since the April 9, 2024, Board meeting, the City Manager’s Office has provided the County CEO’s Office with two proposals to keep Station 96 operational.

The City’s proposals to the County include the following:

1. Stop gap funding via overtime from July 1, 2024—Safer Grant determination to avoid potential station closure.
a. The County should run the analyses to provide an estimated cost i. Cal Fire staff has provided estimated total overtime costs totaling approximately $28,000--$30,000 per month.
b. The County should provide their rationale for their funding contribution. c. The City would provide its faire share of OT costs

2. Station 96 Cost split via calls for service listed below which takes the total Station cost of $2.3M and splits it 61% City, 39% County
a. The City’s portion would be $409,441/year after factoring in fire parcel tax revenue.

It should be noted that Merced County has submitted a SAFER Grant which would cover the costs for additional personnel for a period of three years. The County should receive notification of whether it was awarded the grant sometime in the fall of 2024. Proposed Option One would provide a mechanism to get to that point, which would also allow the city to discuss an agreement in the event the County does not receive the SAFER Grant.

The City Manager’s Office has discussed the options with Cal Fire personnel to assess the viability of both options as well as with Cal Fire Management. Cal Fire Management has conveyed their support for proposed Option One to keep Station 96 operational and enhance the level of service.

Finally, the City Manager’s Office and Councilmembers Jason Roth and JT Mann will be travelling to Washington D.C. with the MCAG OneVoice delegation in May to lobby federal agencies for various priorities, and the SAFER Grant is a top priority.

STAFF REPORT
AGENDA ITEM: Consideration of a Resolution Approving an Administrative Fee for billing processing for Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Organic Waste Collection Services within the City of Livingston.

MEETING DATE: April 16, 2024
PREPARED BY: Anthony Chavarria, Director of Public Works REVIEWED BY: Christopher Lopez, Interim City Manager
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution Establishing an Administrative Fee for Solid Waste, Recycling and Organics Collection Services Processing Maintenance and Enforcement.

BACKGROUND:

On March 19, 2024, the City Council approved Resolution No. 2024-14 approving a Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Organic Waste Collection Services between the City of Livingston and Gilton Solid Waste Management, Inc (Gilton). The term of the agreement was initiated April 1, 2024, and is for a ten (10) year initial term with option of two- five (5) year extensions.

The City granted Gilton the exclusive franchise, right and privilege to collect all Solid Waste, Organic Waste and Recyclables for all residential and commercial premises located within the Franchise Area and to transport the same to a High Diversion Organic Waste Processing Facility, sanitary landfill, transfer station, compost/mulching site, or waste-to-energy facility outside the City.

Based on the agreement, Gilton shall furnish all labor, supervision, materials, permits, licenses, and equipment necessary to provide residential and commercial refuse collection services for customers within the franchise area of City. Gilton shall also perform its obligations under the Franchise Agreement in accordance with all applicable local, state, or federal laws and in a manner that maximizes the City’s Solid Waste diversion rate to the extent possible.

The highlights of the agreement are as follows:
• 10 year initial term with option of two 5 year extensions. • City will receive a 15% Franchise Fee from Collectors gross revenues from residential, commercial, and industrial accounts.
• City will adjust the maximum rates under this agreement to reflect annual changes in the consumer price index for all urban consumers (CPI).
• Collector will provide for two (2) curbside bulky item collection events per calendar year from residential customers.
• Collector shall collect, recycle, or dispose of specified E-Waste (as defined in Exhibit F in the attached agreement) from residential customers up to four (4) times per calendar year. • Collector will provide a residential Christmas tree collection and recycling program. Each year, during the first two full weeks of January, Collector will pick up Christmas trees from the front of residential properties in the City.
