Regular City Council Staff Report
J. Confirm Contract Agreement with Willdan Engineering for After Hours, Standby, and On-Call Animal Control Services through the end of Fiscal Year 2024-25 (Continued from March 11, 2025) [Fire] Meeting

Consent Calendar Item: 3J.

To
City Council
From
Dan Harker, Fire Chief
Via
Tom Ingalls, Fire Marshal
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Confirm the contract agreement with Willdan Engineering for After Hours, Standby, and On-Call Animal Control Services; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Loma Linda is currently unable to provide After Hours Standby and On-Call animal control services with current staff.  Although the City has an agreement with the City of San Bernardino to provide shelter services and emergency coverage for special circumstances, the City of San Bernardino is experiencing significantly low staffing shortages and is unable to help augment After Hours Standby and On-Call services for the City of Loma Linda.

Ensuring adequate animal control services is essential for public health and safety. In an effort to explore alternative solutions, City staff also contacted the County of San Bernardino regarding a potential contract for these services. However, the County does not have the necessary staffing or shelter capacity to enter into such an agreement.

Before presenting this agreement to the City Council for consideration, the Fire Department consulted with the Human Resources Division, the City's Labor Attorney, and the Employee's Union Representative.

ANALYSIS:

To address the City's immediate animal control needs, staff negotiated the following terms with Willdan Engineering:

Monday–Friday:    $75.00 per hour, with a minimum of two hours per day for after hours standby.

Saturday–Sunday: $75.00 per hour, with a minimum of four hours per day for after hours standby.

Call-outs will be billed at $75.00 per hour with a minimum of two hours.

Based on past averages, staff do not foresee exceeding the proposed budget. Further, the division's supervisor will ensure accountability and oversight of the contracted service.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

N/A
FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Funding became available following the March 11, 2025, approval of a $30,000 supplemental appropriation into account #0012050-51830.

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council give direction regarding a Tobacco Retail License ordinance.

BACKGROUND:

At the March 2025 City Council meeting, staff was directed to research the feasibility of implementing a Tobacco Retail License ordinance.

ANALYSIS:

Staff has prepared a presentation summarizing how other agencies  have implemented Tobacco Retail License (TRL) policies. These policies aim to capture various costs to regulate tobacco sales, enhance compliance with local and state laws, public outreach,  and requiring retailers to obtain a separate  TRL in addition to a general business license.

If the City Council chooses to implement a TRL ordinance, staff will return at a future meeting to recommend the City Council conduct a public hearing/first reading to adopt a TRL ordinance. In addition, a fee will be determined at a future study.
