LIST OF ALL LITIGATION INVOLVING GEOLOGIC ASSOCIATES, INC. AND ITS

WHOLLY OWNED SUBSIDIARIES DURING THE PAST TEN YEARS
A. CURRENTLY PENDING LITIGATION:

1. Michael A. Gerek, et. al. v. Zurich American Insurance Company, Northway Fence Incorporated, Pavement Maintenance Incorporated, James Peterson Sons, Incorporated, Buteyn-Peterson Construction Company, Incorporated, Kunkel Engineering Group, a Limited Liability Company, Mega Rentals, Limited Liability Company, Village of Lisbon, County of Waukesha, et. al.

On or about April 8, 2026, Kunkel Engineering Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Geo-Logic Associates, Inc., was served with a Complaint in the above referenced case. That pleading alleges that the plaintiff, who was riding a motorcycle at the time, was involved in an accident on July 18, 2023 on a road that was under construction and/or being repaired. The Complaint contains negligence causes of action against each of the defendants. The boiler plate Complaint is very generic in describing the identical claims that it makes against each of the defendants. This case was filed on March 31, 2026 in the Waukesha Circuit Court, in the State of Wisconsin. Because of the very early stage of this case and the very generic allegations in the Complaint, it is not possible to say anything further about this case at this time.

2. Government of Guam v. Gershman, Brickner & Bratton, Inc; Black Construction Corporation; Brown & Caldwell; Geo-Logic Associates f/k/a Vector Engineering, Inc. f/k/a Ausenco Vector; and GHD, Inc. f/k/a Winzler & Kelly, Federal District Court of Guam, Civil Case No. 1:24-CV-00011.

On May 6, 2024, the Government of Guam (“Guam”) filed a lawsuit in the Federal District Court of Guam against 4 entities, including Geo-Logic Associates, Inc. (“Company”), involved in the design and closure of the Ordot Dump facility on Guam. Discovery has begun. Late last year, the Chief Judge of the Guam Federal District Court has ordered this case and a related case to mediation. It is the Company’s position that it performed its services properly; and, therefore, it intends to vigorously resist and forcefully respond to the claims made against it in this action by Guam. However, the Company intends to in good faith participate in the court ordered mediation. Two sessions of that mediation took place on March 24th and 25th in Los Angeles.

Although the case did not settle, the mediator is trying to get the Parties to agree to another mediation session.

B. RESOLVED LITIGATION:

1. Jeffrey R. Walker and Kelly C. Hendrix vs. Fieldstone Partners, California, LLC, Fieldstone Residential Builders, LLC, RSM 8, LLC, Geologic Associates, Inc., and many others, Orange County Superior Court, Case No.: 30-2022-01274812- CU-OR-CXC.

This lawsuit was filed on August 10, 2022 by attorneys representing the owners of the house at 21401 Vista Drive, Trabuco Canyon, Orange County California (“Property”). The allegations in that Complaint against the Company are that its services in connection with the grading of the tract Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *147
and the Property were performed negligently resulting in damages to the Property. In April of 2023, plaintiffs dismissed the Company from this lawsuit without any consideration being paid by the Company.

2. Arizona Public Service Company v. Layne Christensen Company and Clear Creek Associates, LLC, Arizona Superior Court, Maricopa County, Case No. CV2023-09113.

Arizona Public Service Company (“APS”) filed a Complaint on December 6, 2023, in Arizona Superior Court, Maricopa County, claiming that Clear Creek Associates (“CC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of GeoLogic Associates, Inc., breached its contract with APS and that it performed its services negligently. The contract at issue was to design and perform limited construction management services during construction of a 2500-foot-deep water well. CC believes any problem with the functioning of the well is the fault and responsibility of Layne Christensen Company (“Layne”), the drilling company that constructed the well. APS has made virtually identical claims in its Complaint against Layne. CC and Layne settled this lawsuit with APS at the end of 2024. The terms of this settlement are confidential.

3. Geo-Logic Associates, Inc. v. Metal Recovery Solutions, Inc.

On September 13, 2017, Geo-Logic Associates, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a lawsuit against Metal Recovery Solutions, Inc. (“MRS”) and its owner, Dr. Thomas Seal, in United States District Court, District of Nevada, Case No. 3:17-cv-00563-MMD-WGC (the “Civil Action”), alleging claims for relief for (a) Breach of Contract (Phase II Work Order); (b) Breach of Contract (Phase III Word Order); (c) Misappropriation of Trade Secrets; (d) Unjust Enrichment and Restitution; (e) Quantum Meruit; and (f) Accounting. The crux of the Company’s claims is that MRS did not pay the Company for its services and did not share profits from a project, as the Company contends is contractually required.

On October 24, 2017, the parties to the Civil Action stipulated to arbitrate certain claims and stay the Civil Action. On November 8, 2017, the Company filed a Demand for Arbitration with JAMS pursuant to the stipulation, JAMS Case No. 1260004635 (the “Arbitration”), alleging the same claims against MRS as in the Civil Action, except that the Company did not pursue its trade secret misappropriation claim in arbitration, and the Company did not name Dr. Seal as a respondent in the arbitration.

On November 22, 2017, MRS filed a Response to the Demand for Arbitration, denying the material allegations and asserting affirmative defenses. MRS also asserted a Counterclaim (the “Counterclaim”) against the Company for trade secret misappropriation. The gist of MRS’s Counterclaim is that the Company allegedly failed to timely return certain business records of MRS.

On December 6, 2017, the Company filed an Answer to the Counterclaim, asserting a general denial and several affirmative defenses.

Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *148
On April 3, 2018, the Arbitrator issued an Order permitting MRS to file an Amended Counterclaim, adding claims for relief for Breach of Contract, Breach of the Covenant of Fair Dealing, Trade Secret Misappropriation, and Trademark Infringement. The crux of MRS’s Amended Counterclaim is that the Company allegedly misappropriated key elements of MRS’s trade secret technology to conduct competitive activities.

On April 24, 2018, the Company filed an Answer to the Amended Counterclaim, asserting a general denial and several affirmative defenses.

On August 13, 2018, the Arbitrator issued an Order denying a Motion for Temporary Restraining Order that MRS had filed back on February 8, 2018. The Motion had been briefed extensively prior to the Arbitrator’s ruling. The Arbitrator held that MRS had failed to clearly demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits of its counterclaims, that the balance of hardships tipped in favor of the Company, and that issuing an injunction would not be in the public interest.

The parties have engaged in extensive written discovery and have produced tens of thousands of documents to each other.

In April 2019, the arbitrator granted the Company's motion for summary judgment on MRS' claims for trade secret misappropriation, trademark infringement, and breach of &e of the agreements between the parties.

The arbitration hearing on the Company's claims and MRS' remaining claims took place on May 28 through May 31,2019 in Reno, Nevada. On August 31 2019, the arbitrator issued his decision in favor of the Company awarding it$2,037,676, plus prejudgment interest, on its claims and finding in favor of the Company on MRS' Counterclaim. On January 6, 2020, a judgment was entered in favor of the Company and against MRS in the amount of $2,0371676, plus prejudgment interest. Of that amount, MRS has already paid GLA approximately $140,000.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2026
SUBJECT: Purchase of Public Works Equipment and Installation of Automated Security Access Gates

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve a Public Works Agreement with Ed’s Fencing, Inc. for the installation of two automated security access gates at the Public Works Yard and Cypress Water Production Facility in an amount not to exceed $45,208.00; and authorize the following purchases:

1. Vermeer SC48TX Stump Grinder through Sourcewell Contract No. 010925-VRM in an amount not to exceed $90,839.39;

2. Replacement of the dump bed and hydraulic system on the City’s 2013 Freightliner dump truck by Superior Trailer in an amount not to exceed $48,250.00;

3. CAT Model 260 Skid Steer Loader through Sourcewell Contract No. 011723-CAT in an amount not to exceed $108,710.12; and,

4. Toku TNB-6M Hydraulic Breaker Attachment in an amount not to exceed $13,481.00.

BACKGROUND
The City of Lomita’s Public Works Department relies on specialized equipment and vehicles to maintain the City’s streets, trees, sidewalks, parks, and water distribution system. To maintain efficient operations and continue providing timely maintenance services, staff have identified several equipment replacement and facility improvement needs that are included in the adopted Fiscal Year Capital and Equipment Replacement Program.

The proposed purchases include replacement of two pieces of equipment that have exceeded their useful service life and are becoming increasingly costly to maintain, as well as acquisition of two additional pieces of equipment that will expand the City’s ability to perform maintenance activities in-house. Staff also recommends the installation of

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No.
7h
Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *153
2 automated security access gates at the Public Works Yard and Cypress Water Production Facility to improve facility security and protect City vehicles, equipment, and critical water infrastructure.

DISCUSSION
Stump Grinder Replacement
The existing stump grinder has been in service for approximately 30 years and has exceeded its expected service life. The equipment is frequently used by the Streets/Trees and Parks Division for stump removal and associated with sidewalk repairs, tree maintenance, and park improvements. Due to its age and increasing maintenance requirements, replacement is more cost-effective and efficient than continued repairs.

Staff recommends purchasing a Vermeer SC48TX Stump Grinder through the competitively bid Sourcewell cooperative purchasing contract. The recommended purchase includes the stump grinder, trailer, freight, and delivery for a total cost of $90,839.39.

Dump Bed Replacement
The City’s 2013 Freightliner dump truck is utilized daily by all Public Works divisions to transport construction materials, debris, and maintenance equipment. While the truck chassis remains in good operating condition, the dump bed has deteriorated beyond its useful life. The steel bed has become excessively worn, the tailgate is no longer functional, and hydraulic hoist system requires replacement.

Rather than replacing the entire vehicle, staff recommends replacing the dump bed assembly and hydraulic system, which provides a substantially more economical solution while extending the useful life of the truck. Three quotes were obtained, with Superior Trailer submitted the lowest responsive quote of $48,250.00. The purchase includes removal of the old dump bed body, installation of a new dump bed body, and new hydraulic system.

Skid Steer Loader
Staff recommends purchasing a CAT Model 260 Skid Steer Loader to improve operational efficiency and expand the Department’s ability to perform maintenance work in areas where the City’s current heavy, and bulkier, equipment cannot access.

Currently, many maintenance activities must be completed using a backhoe loader, which is larger, heavier, and less maneuverable than a skid steer. A skid steer will improve access in tight work areas, reduce damage to sidewalk and landscaped areas, and increase efficiency for water utility repairs, park maintenance, and sidewalk reconstruction projects. The recommended purchase also includes broom and forklift attachments, allowing crews to perform street sweeping following utility repairs and unload deliveries without relying on rented equipment. Staff evaluated multiple skid steer models and determined that the CAT Model 260 best meets the City’s operational needs based on performance, ease of maintenance, and the availability of replacements parts and local Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *154
3 service support. Staff recommends purchasing the equipment through the competitively bid Sourcewell cooperative purchasing contract for a total cost of $108,710.12. The purchase includes the skid steer loader, training materials, and freight delivery costs.

Hydraulic Breaker Attachment
Staff recommends purchasing a hydraulic breaker attachment for the City’s existing backhoe loader. The attachment will significantly improved productivity by allowing crews to remove concrete much quicker than traditional pneumatic jackhammers/ This equipment will expand the City’s ability to complete sidewalk, curb, and concrete repairs with City crews, reducing reliance on outside contractors, and lowering long-term maintenance costs. Staff recommend purchasing the Toku TNB-6M for a cost of $13,481.00.

Automated Security Access Gates
Staff recommends replacing the existing manual gates at both the Public Works Yard and Cypress Water Production Facility with automated security access gates.

The current gates remain open during normal business hours, allowing unrestricted access to City maintenance facilities where vehicles, equipment, materials, and critical water infrastructure are stored. Automated gates will improve employee safety, enhance site security, and better protect City assets while maintaining convenient access for authorized personnel.

Three quotes were received from Automated Gate Services, Inc., Ed’s Fencing, Inc., and Gate & Garage Masters. Staff recommends awarding the contract to Ed’s Fencing, Inc., the lowest responsive bidder, in the amount of $45,208.00.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the recommended purchases and public work contract is $306,488.51.

The equipment purchases and automated security gates are budgeted in the Adopted FY 26-27 Adopted Budget in the Equipment Replacement Fund and Water Capital Fund.

ITEM TOTAL COST
Stump Grinder $ 90,839.39
Dump Bed Replacement $ 48,250.00
Skid Steer Loader $ 108,710.12
Hydraulic Breaker Attachment $ 13,481.00
Security Gates $ 45,208.00
Total $ 306,488.51

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed:

1. GENERAL SCOPE OF WORK: CITY agrees to engage CONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR agrees to furnish all necessary labor, tools, materials, appliances, and equipment for and do the work for the Automated Security Gates Project in the City of Lomita. The work shall be performed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications (the “Specifications” attached as Exhibit A) and in accordance with bid prices set forth in CONTRACTOR’S Bid Proposal (attached as Exhibit B) and in accordance with the instructions of the City Engineer.

The contract documents for the aforesaid project, a complete set of which is on file with the Lomita City Clerk’s Office, shall consist of the Notice Inviting Bids, Instructions to Bidders, Bid Proposal, Builders General Provisions, Standard Specifications, Special Provisions, and all referenced specifications, details, standard drawings, and appendices; together with this Agreement and all required bonds, insurance certificates, permits, notices and affidavits; and also, including any and all addenda or supplemental agreements clarifying, amending, or extending the work contemplated as may be required to insure its completion in an acceptable manner. All of the provisions of said contract documents are made a part hereof as though fully set forth herein. This Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *166

contract is intended to require a complete and finished piece of work and anything necessary to complete the work properly and in accordance with the law and lawful governmental regulations shall be performed by CONTRACTOR whether set out specifically in the contract or not. Should it be ascertained that any inconsistency exists between the aforesaid documents and this written agreement, the provisions of this Agreement, the Builders General Provisions and the Standard Specifications, in that order, shall control. Collectively, these contract documents constitute the complete agreement between CITY and CONTRACTOR and supersede any previous agreements or understandings.

3. COMPENSATION: CONTRACTOR agrees to receive and accept the prices set forth in its Bid Proposal as full compensation for furnishing all materials, performing all work, and fulfilling all obligations hereunder. Said compensation shall cover all expenses, losses, damages, and consequences arising out of the nature of the work during its progress or prior to its acceptance including those for well and faithfully completing the work and the whole thereof in the manner and time specified in the aforesaid contract documents; and also including those arising from actions of the elements, unforeseen difficulties or obstructions encountered in the prosecution of the work, suspension or discontinuance of the work, and all other unknowns or risks of any description connected with the work.

4. TIME OF PERFORMANCE: CONTRACTOR agrees to complete the work within calendar days from the date of the notice to proceed. By signing this Agreement, CONTRACTOR represents to CITY that the contract time is reasonable for completion of the work and that CONTRACTOR will complete such work within the contract time. In accordance with Government Code Section 53069.85, CONTRACTOR agrees to forfeit and pay CITY as liquidated damages, not as a penalty, the sum of $1,000.00 per day for each and every day of unauthorized delay beyond the completion date, which amount shall be deducted from any payments due or to become due the CONTRACTOR.

5. PREVAILING WAGES:

A. Pursuant to Labor Code § 1720, and as specified in 8 California Code of Regulations § 16000, CONTRACTOR must pay its workers prevailing wages. It is CONTRACTOR’s responsibility to interpret and implement any prevailing wage requirements and CONTRACTOR agrees to pay any penalty or civil damages resulting from a violation of the prevailing wage laws.

B. In accordance with Labor Code § 1773.2, copies of the prevailing rate of per diem wages are available upon request from CITY’s Engineering Division or the website for State of California Prevailing wage determination at http://www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD.

C. CITY directs CONTRACTOR’s attention to Labor Code §§ 1777.5, 1777.6 and 3098 concerning the employment of apprentices by CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor.

D.

The certificate must also fix the ratio of apprentices to journeymen that will be used in the performance of the contract. The ratio of apprentices to journeymen in such cases will not be less than one to five except:
(1) When employment in the area of coverage by the joint apprenticeship committee has exceeded an average of 15 percent in the 90 days before the request for certificate, or
(2) When the number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of one to five, or
(3) When the trade can show that it is replacing at least 1/30 of its membership through apprenticeship training on an annual basis state-wide or locally, or
(4) When CONTRACTOR provides evidence that CONTRACTOR
employs registered apprentices on all of his contracts on an annual average of not less than one apprentice to eight journeymen. (5) CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if CONTRACTOR employs registered apprentices or journeymen in any apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other contractors on the public works site are making such contributions. (6) CONTRACTOR and any subcontractor must comply with Labor Code §§ 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. (7) Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex-officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

E. CONTRACTOR and its subcontractors must keep an accurate certified payroll records showing the name, occupation, and the actual per diem wages paid to each worker employed in connection with this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR shall forfeit, as a penalty to CITY, twenty-five dollars ($25.00) for each laborer, workman or mechanic employed in the execution of the contract, by him or any subcontractor under it, upon any of the work hereinbefore mentioned, for each calendar day during which the laborer, worker or mechanic is required or permitted to labor more than eight (8) hours in violation of the Labor Code.

8. CONTRACTOR'S LIABILITY: The City of Lomita and its officers, agents and employees ("Indemnitees") shall not be answerable or accountable in any manner for any loss or damage that may happen to the work or any part thereof, or for any of the materials or other things used or employed in performing the work; or for injury or damage to any person or persons, either workers or employees of CONTRACTOR, of its subcontractors or the public, or for damage to adjoining or other property from any cause whatsoever arising out of or in connection with the performance of the work. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for any damage or injury to any person or property resulting from defects or obstructions or from any cause whatsoever.

CONTRACTOR will indemnify Indemnitees against and will hold and save Indemnitees harmless from any and all actions, claims, damages to persons or property, penalties, obligations or liabilities that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm, entity, corporation, political subdivision, or other organization arising out of or in connection with the work, operation, or activities of CONTRACTOR, its agents, employees, subcontractors or invitees provided for herein, whether or not there is concurrent passive negligence on the part of any Indemnitee. In connection therewith:

In the event Indemnitees are made a party to any action or proceeding filed or prosecuted against CONTRACTOR for damages or other claims arising out of or in connection with the work, operation or activities hereunder, CONTRACTOR agrees to pay to Indemnitees and any all costs and expenses incurred by Indemnitees in such action or proceeding together with reasonable attorneys' fees.

CONTRACTOR'S obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of CITY under any provision of this agreement, Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless CITY for liability attributable to the active negligence of CITY, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where CITY is shown to have been actively negligent and where CITY active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City.

So much of the money due to CONTRACTOR under and by virtue of the contract as shall be considered necessary by CITY may be retained by CITY until disposition has been made of such actions or claims for damages as aforesaid.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California. This indemnity provision shall survive the termination of the Agreement and is in addition to any other rights or remedies which Indemnitees may have under the law.

This indemnity is effective without reference to the existence or applicability of any insurance coverage which may have been required under this Agreement or any additional insured endorsements which may extend to Indemnitees.

CONTRACTOR, on behalf of itself and all parties claiming under or through it, hereby waives all rights of subrogation and contribution against the Indemnitees, while acting within the scope of their duties, from all claims, losses and liabilities arising our of or incident to activities or operations performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR regardless of any prior, concurrent, or subsequent passive negligence by the Indemnitees.

1 TO: City Council
FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2026
SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Ron’s Maintenance Inc. for Fiscal Year 2026-27 Catch Basin Cleaning Services

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Ron’s Maintenance Inc. for Fiscal Year 2026-27 catch basin cleaning services for an amount not to exceed $50,400; and appropriate an additional $29,400 from the Special Revenue Fund (Gas Tax).

BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department is responsible for maintaining the City of Lomita’s stormwater drainage system to ensure the safe and efficient conveyance of stormwater runoff during rain events. While the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) owns and maintains the majority of the regional storm drain infrastructure, the City is responsible for the annual maintenance of 210 catch basins throughout Lomita.

Under the City’s maintenance agreement with LACFCD, the City is responsible for cleaning 36 City-owned catch basins, as well as 174 LACFCD-owned catch basins that have been retrofitted with City-installed trash excluders. The trash excluders are designed to capture litter and debris before it enters the regional storm drain system, which helps the City comply with stormwater quality requirements and reduce pollutant discharges to local waterways.

DISCUSSION
For Fiscal Year 2025-26, catch basin cleaning services were provided by Los Angeles County Public Works. For Fiscal Year 2026-27, the County provided an estimated cost of $65,160 to clean all catch basins three times during the wet season and one time during the dry season. The proposed services include cleaning and

CITY OF LOMITA

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No.
7i
Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *181
2 removing all sediment from the catch basins and replacement of “No-Dumping” stencils, as needed. Repairs to any trash excluders will be an additional cost.

Staff also evaluated completing this work with City staff. Based on labor, equipment rentals, and operational costs, staff estimates it would cost approximately $54,647 to clean all 210 catch basins once, making in-house performance substantially more expensive while also diverting maintenance crews from other essential Public Works operations.

To identify a more cost-effective alternative, staff solicited a proposal from Ron’s Maintenance Inc., a firm specializing in storm drain maintenance services. Ron’s Maintenance submitted a proposal in the amount of $42,000 to clean all catch basins three times during the wet season and one time during the dry season.

The proposed services include the removal of all sediment, vegetation, litter, and debris using vacuum and pressure-washing equipment. The contractor will also provide photographs and inspection reports documenting completion of work at each catch basin.

Based on the competitive pricing, it is recommended that the City enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Ron’s Maintenance Inc. and establishing a contingency of $8,400 to address additional work that may be required during the cleaning process, including replacement of “No Dumping” stencils and repairs to trash excluders identified during inspections for a total contract amount not to exceed $50,400.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Fiscal Year budget currently includes $21,000 appropriated from the Special Revenue Fund (Gas Tax). An additional appropriation of $29,400 is required to fund the services.

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 5: City Infrastructure & Water Utility – Investing in reliable, sustainable infrastructure.

OPTIONS

1. Approve staff’s recommendation.

2. Provide alternative direction.

If the services are being performed on a public works project of over $25,000 when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work, or a public works project of over $15,000 when the project is for maintenance work, in addition to the foregoing, then pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”). CONTRACTOR shall maintain registration for the duration of the project and require the same of any subcontractors. This project may also be subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. It shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility to comply with all applicable registration and labor compliance requirements, including the submission of payroll records directly to the DIR. Any stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractors that affect CONTRACTOR’S performance of services, including any delay, shall be CONTRACTOR’S sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered CONTRACTOR caused delay and shall not be compensable by CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall defend, indemnify and hold CITY, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the DIR against CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor.

C. Labor Certification. By its signature hereunder, CONTRACTOR certifies that it is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the California Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for Worker's Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that Code, and agrees to comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the Services.

D. Employment of Apprentices. CONTRACTOR and all subcontractors shall comply with the requirements of Labor Code sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to apprenticeship standards, wage schedules, and other requirements may be obtained from the Director of Industrial Relations, ex officio the Administrator of Apprenticeship, San Francisco, California, or from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and its branch offices.

E. CONTRACTOR or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Labor Code section 1777.1 or 1777.7. Any contract on a public works project entered into between CONTRACTOR and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any public money that is paid or may have been paid to a debarred subcontractor by CONTRACTOR on the project shall be returned to CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall be as fully responsible to CITY for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor and of persons either directly or indirectly employed by its subcontractor, as CONTRACTOR is for acts and omissions of persons directly employed by CONTRACTOR.

7. TERMINATION.

A. Except as otherwise provided, CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without cause. Notice of termination shall be in writing.

C. In the event of such termination, CONTRACTOR shall cease services as of the date of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, drawings, maps, and other materials prepared by CONTRACTOR shall, at CITY’s option, become CITY’s property, and CONTRACTOR will receive just and equitable compensation for any work satisfactorily completed up to the effective date of notice of termination.

D. Should the Agreement be terminated pursuant to this Section, CITY may procure on its own terms services similar to those terminated.

8. INDEMNIFICATION.

A. CONTRACTOR shall indemnify, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with CONTRACTOR's performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, regardless of CITY’S passive negligence, but excepting such loss or damage which is caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of CITY. Should CITY in its sole discretion find CONTRACTOR’S legal counsel unacceptable, then CONTRACTOR shall reimburse CITY its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable attorneys fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation.

CONTRACTOR shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against CITY (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) covered by this indemnity obligation. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.

B. The requirements as to the types and limits of insurance coverage to be maintained by CONTRACTOR as required by Section 19, and any approval of said insurance by CITY, are not intended to and will not in any manner limit or Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *188

qualify the liabilities and obligations otherwise assumed by CONTRACTOR pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation, to the provisions concerning indemnification.

9. ASSIGNABILITY. This Agreement is for CONTRACTOR’s professional services.

CONTRACTOR’s attempts to assign the benefits or burdens of this Agreement without CITY’s written approval are prohibited and will be null and void.

10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. CITY and CONTRACTOR agree that CONTRACTOR will act as an independent contractor and will have control of all work and the manner in which is it performed. CONTRACTOR will be free to contract for similar service to be performed for other employers while under contract with CITY. CONTRACTOR is not an agent or employee of CITY and is not entitled to participate in any pension plan, insurance, bonus or similar benefits CITY provides for its employees. Any provision in this Agreement that may appear to give CITY the right to direct CONTRACTOR as to the details of doing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the work means that CONTRACTOR will follow the direction of the CITY as to end results of the work only.

11. AUDIT OF RECORDS.

A. CONTRACTOR agrees that CITY, or designee, has the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR agrees to provide CITY, or designee, with any relevant information requested and will permit CITY, or designee, access to its premises, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours for the purpose of interviewing employees and inspecting and copying such books, records, accounts, and other material that may be relevant to a matter under investigation for the purpose of determining compliance with this Agreement.

CONTRACTOR further agrees to maintain such records for a period of three (3) years following final payment under this Agreement.

B. CONTRACTOR will keep all books, records, accounts and documents pertaining to this Agreement separate from other activities unrelated to this Agreement.

12. CORRECTIVE MEASURES. CONTRACTOR will promptly implement any corrective measures required by CITY regarding the requirements and obligations of this Agreement.

Failure of CONTRACTOR to implement required corrective measures shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement.

13. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS.

A. CONTRACTOR, at CONTRACTOR’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, the following insurance policies:

Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *189

1. Workers Compensation Insurance as required by law. CONTRACTOR shall require all subcontractors similarly to provide such compensation insurance for their respective employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by CITY at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against CITY, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by CONTRACTOR for CITY.

2. General Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount of not less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit.

3. Automobile Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

4. Professional Liability Coverage. CONTRACTOR shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors, or omissions which may arise from CONTRACTOR’S operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by CONTRACTOR or by its employees, subcontractors, or subcontractors. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than two million dollars ($2,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-per-occurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a “claims made basis,” CONTRACTOR will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated.

Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover CONTRACTOR for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of CONTRACTOR, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by CITY, and shall be endorsed as follows. CONTRACTOR also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

1. “The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *190

and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONTRACTOR, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.”

2. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

Any insurance maintained by CITY, including any self-insured retention CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days’ written notice has been received by CITY.

C. CONTRACTOR agrees to provide immediate notice to CITY of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the work performed under this agreement.

CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY.

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by CITY. At CITY’s option, CONTRACTOR shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

E. CONTRACTOR shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to CITY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of CONTRACTOR to procure or maintain required insurance shall constitute a material breach of contract under which CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 13 above.

G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *191

Agreement shall allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention (“SIR”) and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the CONTRACTOR (as the named insured) should CONTRACTOR fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. CONTRACTOR understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONTRACTOR as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONTRACTOR’S behalf upon CONTRACTOR’S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against Contractor for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

14. USE OF OTHER CONTRACTORS. CONTRACTOR must obtain CITY’s prior written approval to use any Contractors while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval must include approval of the proposed Contractor and the terms of compensation.

15. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONTRACTOR of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONTRACTOR for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONTRACTOR’S work or services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of CITY’S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by CONTRACTOR, its employees, sub-Contractors and agents.

16. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONTRACTOR shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during CITY’S review of CONTRACTOR’S report or plans. Should the CONTRACTOR fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to CONTRACTOR. In addition to all other available remedies, CITY may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by CITY or may withhold payment otherwise owed CONTRACTOR under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.

17. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONTRACTOR by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal budget and within an available, unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient funds for payment of CONTRACTOR’S services Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *192

beyond the current fiscal year, the Agreement shall cover payment for CONTRACTOR’S only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of such fiscal year.

SUBJECT: Human Resources Technician Job Classification

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Human Resources Technician Position Specifications.

BACKGROUND
A system of position classification creates an understanding of the roles, responsibilities, and relationships of each job classification within the City. Classification descriptions identify the essential duties, responsibilities, level of authority, knowledge, skills, education, experience, and certifications required to meet the minimum performance standards for each position at the City.

The City Council is responsible for adopting the position classifications and authorizing the number of City positions through Resolutions. As the City’s Personnel Officer, the City Manager, or designee, is responsible for ensuring that accurate class descriptions exist for all positions. From time to time, creations and changes to position classification specifications are needed as the City Manager determines necessary to accomplish the City’s mission, purpose, and programs.

The City Manager recommends that a new position classification titled Human Resources Technician be created to meet the operational needs of the City.

DISCUSSION
The Human Resources Technician is an entry-level administrative support position that focuses on the day-to-day operations of the Human Resources division. The HR Technician position is a confidential, non-represented classification in the Human Resources series.

FROM: Andrew Vialpando, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Adrian Fernandez, Community and Economic Development Director
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2026
SUBJECT: Cooperation Agreement Between the City of Lomita and the County of Los Angeles for Continued Participation in the County of Los Angeles Urban Community Development Block Grant Program

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the Mayor or designee to execute the agreement for the time period of July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030.

BACKGROUND
In 1974, the U.S. Congress introduced the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program as part of the Housing and Community Development Act. CDBG is funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Although the Act has been amended in recent years, the primary objective continues to develop viable urban communities by providing decent housing, a suitable living environment, and expanding economic opportunities, principally for low- and moderate-income persons.

The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA), formerly the Los Angeles County Community Development Commission, administers this funding on behalf of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, which oversees the LACDA, and 48 participating cities throughout the County including Lomita. LACDA acts as the intermediary between the Housing and Urban Department (HUD) and the City in the distribution of CDBG funds.

To participate in the CDBG Program, LACDA must requalify with HUD every three (3) years to obtain entitlement status as an Urban County. The County is in the process of submitting its documentation to qualify for this designation. For the requalification to be possible, LACDA needs to enter into cooperation agreements with all non-entitlement cities, with a population of less than 50,000, within the Los Angeles County.

LACDA has not received the 27-29 Cooperation Agreement from the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

The Cooperation Agreements are executed on three (3) year cycles, the next being July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030. The current Urban County three-year qualification period will end on June 30, 2027.

The City of Lomita would need to continue its participation in order to continue receiving CDBG funding. The City of Lomita has been approved to receive a CDBG allocation during fiscal year 2026-2027 of $140,108.

FISCAL IMPACT
By participating in the Los Angeles Urban CDBG Program, the City of Lomita would be allocated an estimated $440,000 in CDBG funds between July 1, 2027, and June 30, 2030.

MEETING DATE: July 7, 2026
SUBJECT: Second Amendment to the Agreement with David Evans & Associates for Engineering Design Services for Street
Reconstruction Project - Zone G for Phases 3 and 4

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Second Amendment to Agreement No. 2022-31 with David Evans & Associates (DEA) for additional engineering design and construction support services associated with Phase 3 and 4 of the Zone G Street Reconstruction Project for an additional amount of $71,870, plus a contingency amount of $7,500 for unexpected costs, for a total amended contract amount of $397,258.

BACKGROUND
On July 19, 2022, the City Council approved Professional Services Agreement No. 2022- 31 with David Evans & Associates (DEA) to provide engineering design and construction support services for Zone G Street Reconstruction Project (Attachment 1). DEA was selected by the City to provide engineering design and construction support services for the Zone G Street Reconstruction Project.

Since the start of the project and as design progressed, it was determined that constructing the project as a single phase was no longer the most cost-effective approach. The project was subsequently divided into four construction phases to spread construction costs over multiple fiscal years and to allow planned water main replacement improvements to be completed before pavement rehabilitation on several streets. This additional coordination effort required use of some of the original contract contingency.

The Zone G Street Reconstruction Project phasing is shown on the map in Attachment 2.

Following completion of the design for Phase 1 and due to increased construction costs and additional construction support required during implementation, the remaining budget for engineering services was insufficient to complete Phases 2 through 4. As a result, on

CITY OF LOMITA

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
Item No.
8b
Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *220
2 June 3, 2025, the City Council approved the First Amendment to the agreement (Agreement No. 2025-21) to provide additional engineering design and construction support services for the remaining phases of the project (Attachment 3).

Phase 2 design was completed and advertised for bids on July 31, 2025. Construction began in November 2025 and is currently in the project closeout phase.

DISCUSSION
Construction of Phases 3 and 4 have been intentionally delayed to coordinate with the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project. As a best practice for preserving the integrity and lifespan of newly constructed pavement, staff makes every effort to avoid trenching into recently resurfaced streets. Since the Zone G Water Main Replacement Project includes replacement of water mains beneath three streets scheduled for reconstruction in Phases 3 and 4, roadway construction has been deferred until completion of the water improvements. This will minimize disruption to the surrounding residents and businesses by phasing the water main work with the roadway reconstruction work. The Zone G Water Main Replacement Project is anticipated to be completed in Fall 2026.

While preparing for the next phases of construction, staff identified an opportunity to improve project efficiency by incorporating additional street rehabilitation work planned for Fiscal Year 2026-27 into the existing Zone G Street Reconstruction Project.

Combining these improvements into a single design package and future construction contract will reduce consultant procurement efforts, minimize construction mobilization costs, and provide greater overall project efficiency. The additional street segments are 254th Street between Cypress Street and the western terminus, 255th Street between Walnut Street and the eastern City limit, and Doria Avenue (north and south of 252nd Street). In addition, the proposed amendment includes extending the reconstruction limits on Walnut Street from 253rd Street to approximately 25 feet north of 253rd Place. The additional segment on Walnut Street will also include three curb extensions and six ADAcompliant curb ramps. Finally, installation of a new fire hydrant and associated water service lateral at the end of Alcor Street will be included to improve fire protection.

DEA has submitted a proposal for the additional engineering design and construction support services associated with this expanded scope (Exhibit A-2 of Attachment 4). Staff have reviewed the proposal and determined the scope and associated fees are reasonable and necessary to complete the remaining phases of the Zone G Street Reconstruction Project.

Approval of the Second Amendment will allow the consultant to complete final design, bidding support, construction support, and record drawing preparation for the expanded project limits. Table 1 shows the contract history.

The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single-limit-peroccurrence basis. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," CONSULTANT will continue to renew the insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Agreement and will cover CONSUL TANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any negligent acts, errors or omissions of CONSUL TANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect.

B. Endorsements. Each general liability, automobile liability and professional liability insurance policy shall be issued by a financially responsible insurance company or companies admitted and authorized to do business in the State of California, or which is approved in writing by CITY, and shall be endorsed as follows.

1. "The CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to the commercial general liability and automobile liability arising out of work performed by or on behalf of the CONSULTANT, including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations."

2. The commercial general liability and automobile liability policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance maintained by CITY, including any self-insured retention CITY may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with this policy.

3. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.

4. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, or agents.

5. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to CITY, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents, or volunteers.

6. The insurance provided by this policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits to not meet the requirements of this Agreement except after thirty (30) days' written notice has been received by CITY.

C. CONSULTANT agrees to provide prompt notice to CITY of any claim or loss against CONSUL TANT arising out of the work performed under this agreement.

CITY assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve CITY ..

D. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by CITY. At CITY's option, CONSUL TANT shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions.

Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with CITY on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with CITY at all times during the term of this Agreement.

F. Failure on the part of CONSULTANT to procure or maintain required insurance

Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *230
DocuSign Envelope ID: 04837D57-3FDA-4596-8CBD-D0F45B6F5251 shall constitute a material breach of contract under which CITY may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 11 above.

G. The commercial general and automobile liability policies required by this Agreement shall allow CITY, as additional insured, to satisfy the self-insured retention ("SIR") and/or deductible of the policy in lieu of the CONSUL TANT (as the named insured) should CONSULTANT fail to pay the SIR or deductible requirements. The amount of the SIR or deductible shall be subject to the approval of the City Attorney and the Finance Director. CONSUL TANT understands and agrees that satisfaction of this requirement is an express condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement. Failure by CONSULTANT as primary insured to pay its SIR or deductible constitutes a material breach of this Agreement. Should CITY pay the SIR or deductible on CONSULTANT'S behalf upon CONSULTANT'S failure or refusal to do so in order to secure defense and indemnification as an additional insured under the policy, CITY may include such amounts as damages in any action against CONSULTANT for breach of this Agreement in addition to any other damages incurred by CITY due to the breach.

19. USE OF OTHER CONSULTANTS. CONSUL TANT must obtain CITY's prior written approval to use any CONSULTANTs while performing any portion of this Agreement.

Such approval must include approval of the proposed CONSULTANT and the terms of compensation.

20. FINAL PAYMENT ACCEPTANCE CONSTITUTES RELEASE. The acceptance by the CONSUL TANT of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of CITY from all claims and liabilities for compensation to the CONSULTANT for anything done, furnished or relating to the CONSULTANT'S work or services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of CITY'S check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within ten (10) calendar days of the receipt of that check. However, approval or payment by CITY shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of CONSULTANT, its employees, sub-CONSULTANTS and agents for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by CITY for any defect or error in the work prepared by CONSUL TANT, its employees, sub-CONSUL TANTs and agents.

21. CORRECTIONS. In addition to the above indemnification obligations, the CONSULTANT shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during CITY'S review of CONSULTANT'S report or plans. Should the CONSULTANT fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by CITY, and the cost thereof shall be charged to CONSUL TANT. In addition to all other available remedies, CITY may deduct the cost of such correction from any retention amount held by CITY or may withhold payment

Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *231
DocuSign Envelope ID: 04837D57-3FDA-4596-8CBD-D0F45B6F5251 otherwise owed CONSUL TANT under this Agreement up to the amount of the cost of correction.

22. NON~APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS. Payments to be made to CONSULTANT by CITY for services preformed within the current fiscal year are within the current fiscal bu,dget and within an available,· unexhausted fund. In the event that CITY does not appropriate sufficient funds for payment of CONSULTANT'S services beyond the current fiscal year, the Agre~ment shall cover payment for CONSULTANT'S only to the conclusion of the last fiscal year in which CITY appropriates sufficient funds and shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of such fiscal year.

In this project, the City identified two phases with 9 streets in each phase requiring complete reconstruction. Civil Works provided design services for the pavement rehabilitation and reconstruction of 18 streets (3.6 miles). The 18 streets are located primarily in residential and commercial areas of the City. Since most of 18 streets had not been rehabilitated for more than 20 years, the existing roadway asphalt exhibited signs of various asphalt distress including block, transverse, longitudinal, map, and alligator cracking.

The project included field review, surveying, geotechnical investigations, pavement analysis, geotechnical report, predesign report, ADA ramp reconstruction, sidewalk reconstruction, striping, final design including plans, specifications, and estimates, bidding document preparation, and bidding and construction support. The analysis included review of full depth reconstruction with cement stabilized or recycled asphalt concrete layers with an option for cold central plant recycling (CCPR). The City selected AC over cement stabilized pulverized base (CSPB). Phase 1 was estimated at $1.69 million and the range of bidders in July 2018 was from $1.45 to $1.92 million. Phase 2 was estimated at $2.34 million and the range of bidders in July 2019 was from $1.44 to $3.50 million.

The City desired to improve the wearing surface of MacArthur Boulevard and University Drive and identified the project through their Pavement Management Program indications. The rehabilitation extended on MacArthur Boulevard from Ford Road / Bonita Canyon Drive to the SR-73 (4,050’) and on University Drive from Jamboree Road to the east side of the SR-73 northbound ramps (2,450’). The City also desired to reconstruct deteriorated concrete flatwork, upgrade pedestrian facilities to ADA and restripe using the new 6” stripes with a slightly changed cross section.

After preparation of the Pavement Investigation Reports, the agreed upon pavement rehabilitation strategy on MacArthur Boulevard was to use 2” asphalt rubber hot mix (ARHM) over 4” base for a 10-15 year service life for the section from Bison to SR-73 and 2” ARHM over 1.5” base from Ford Road to Bison. On University Drive, we examined an alternative approach for a test pilot program using fiber for a portion of the length. Upon coordination with the fiber manufacturer however, it was decided this was too expensive, so it was revised to a conventional structural section. Most of the section was constructed using 2” ARHM over 1.5” base providing a 20-year design life.

We prepared plans for pavement rehabilitation including 50’ cross sections and plan and profile. A Caltrans permit and traffic handling plans within Caltrans jurisdiction were prepared for the work that extended traffic handling onto their SR-73 facilities. The project also involved field review, surveying, geotechnical investigations, utility coordination, base plan development, pavement analysis, stage construction and traffic handling, traffic detour, street improvement design, signing and striping, specifications, cost estimate, and construction support. The project was successfully constructed. La Belle Marvin performed the pavement investigation needs for this project.

A major Orange County Sanitation District aged trunk line sewer was replaced within Dover Drive which caused significant damage to the street surface. As a result, the City initiated a street improvement project with along Dover Drive and Westcliff Drive to improve the pavement and also to improve the aesthetics. The project involved the rehabilitation of the two existing roadways and construction of new and in some locations, widened landscaped medians. The improvements on Dover Drive extend between Coast Highway and Irvine Avenue, approximately 1.4 miles and on Westcliff Drive from Dover Drive to Irvine Avenue. A change in aesthetics was also requested by the City and therefore, our team developed alternative landscape palettes from which the City could choose the preferred new look. The project additionally included curb ramp improvements, traffic signal upgrades, traffic handling storm drain catch basin upgrades, and new irrigation and landscaping.

The project involved planning pavement repair and rehabilitation, parkway repair, and storm drain rehabilitation for 38 residential streets.

The intent of the project was to identify and quantify areas of distressed asphalt concrete pavement, determine method of asphalt concrete pavement rehabilitation, identify, and quantify areas of damaged or lifted concrete sidewalk and damaged, lifted, or depressed curb and gutter. These were summarized in a written report providing recommendations to repair the distressed pavement (typically dig-outs), method of pavement rehabilitation (slurry seal, grind and overlay, pavement reconstruction), and method of curb and gutter and sidewalk repair (grinding tripping hazards, remove and replacement).

The project included video inspection of the existing CMP storm drains and subsequent recommendations.

Rehabilitation involved installing liners rather than replacement with RCP. We prepared the construction plans, specifications, bid list and construction estimate to complete the rehabilitation work.

AC reconstruction will extend from curb-to-curb with alternative treatment such as conventional hot mix asphalt (HMA), asphalt rubberized hot mix (ARHM), cold in place recycling, base reconstruction, etc. Pavement repair strategies and methods will be evaluated to recommend an appropriate and cost-effective alternative for each street segment. It is not anticipated that street profiles would need to be modified.

The street improvements will also address the following as applicable for each street:
• Adjustments of manholes and utility valve covers
• Replacement of traffic signal loop detectors
• Replacement of striping, pavement markings and pavement markers The pavement investigation and report will be prepared to address each street segment and determine appropriate potential reconstruction alternatives. From this information, we will prepare a memo summarizing the alternatives and associated costs for the City to evaluate the repair options. Following the City’s review and approval of the preferred reconstruction approach, we will prepare design PS&E.

ADA Curb Ramps
Existing curb ramps not meeting current ADA requirements will be reconstructed as part of the street reconstruction. We have identified thirty-six (36) existing curb ramps in Zone G that will need reconstruction.

Task 3 Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E)
Task 4 Bid Package
Task 5 Bid and Construction Support
Task 1 – Meetings and Coordination
We anticipate five project meetings will be held during the project development as follows: kickoff meeting for overall coordination, establishment of project direction, scope, budget details, and schedule; second meeting (progress meeting) at 30% level of completion; third meeting (progress meeting) at 60% level of completion; fourth meeting (progress meeting) at 90% level of completion; and fifth meeting (progress meeting) at the 100% level of completion. The purpose of the progress meetings is to maintain communication with the City, discuss progress and ensure delivery on schedule, discuss specific issues, exchange information, and receive guidance and direction. Agendas and meeting minutes will be prepared.

This task also includes the project management and coordination efforts required among the project team throughout the project development.

Task 2 – Pavement Investigation and Analysis
Field sampling by pavement coring method shall be performed on each roadway segment. Each location will be located within the right wheel track, extending 4’ below the finish surface. All locations shall be backfilled and patched, per City of Lomita requirements.
• 35 total pavement core locations will be sampled including existing asphalt concrete and PCC layers, and the sampling of the underlying soils. Sample specimens shall be measured, labeled, and transported back to LMI’s Caltrans certified and AASHTO accredited laboratory for further analysis. See Table 1 in Section 3.1 “Project Understanding” for the number of pavement coring to be performed for each street. o All sampling operations shall comply with the City’s no fee encroachment permit requirements.

o A core log and core location plan shall be included in the final report • Existing cross slopes, taken by digital smart level, shall be obtained at select locations in the field during the coring operations. Existing cross slopes shall be utilized to verify compliance with City standards.

Ground Penetrating Radar shall provide additional asphalt concrete thickness information on a continuous basis, providing up to 3 tests per linear foot, without the need to increase the proposed pavement coring efforts. This is a substantial cost saving to the City while providing greater information to our engineers. The measured asphalt concrete pavement thickness shall be mapped by depth and location and provided onto aerial imagery.

Subgrade soil samples taken in the field will be identified, labeled, and measured during the sampling process.

Data developed during the laboratory testing will be utilized to project probable field support conditions during construction and highlight where appropriate special care may be required during roadway preparation.

Evaluation of the present pavement thicknesses utilizing component analysis with R-value data will be combined with future traffic estimates (Traffic Index provided by City) for design and development of suitable, alterative replacement sections. Laboratory tests included within this investigation are as follows:
o Moisture Content Tests (CA 226): Subgrade soil samples taken in the field will be visually classified and the in-situ moisture content will be determined per sample location. o R-Value Tests (CA 301): Representative sample(s) will be selected and tested for R-Value (soil strength) determinations on the subgrade.

LaBelle Marvin shall perform a site evaluation of site conditions. Conditions shall be recorded for the purposes of compiling the recommendation plans and report. Compare field conditions with thickness data obtained during core sampling and GPR scanning. We will compare field conditions with component analysis based on laboratory subgrade strength testing for the purpose of providing needed structural improvements.

Engineered recommendations for alternate methods of pavement rehabilitation, and/or reconstruction, (where conditions dictate) inclusive of a pulverization alternative, where feasible, will be developed based of the materials investigation. Pavement will be designed in accordance with the City’s design standards and California Design Manual for Flexible Pavement and Roadway Rehabilitation. Designs shall be based on City provided traffic index and design life criteria. Final rehabilitation concept plans of each strategy will be created in AutoCAD and produced onto color media 11” x 17”, suitable for conveying alternative methods of improvement.

A final report shall be provided inclusive of all data developed during the investigation with the most costeffective design rehabilitation alternatives, structural replacement sections for areas of reconstruction, material specifications, field, and laboratory test data.

The plans related to pavement reconstruction will be prepared on 24” by 36” sheets using AutoCad Civil 3D 2022. The plan set is expected to include the following sheets. • Title sheet (1 sheet)
• Typical Sections (2 sheet)
• Layout Plans at 1” = 40’ (5 sheets) – including centerline and public right of way line • Curb Ramp Detail Sheets at 1”=10’ (4 sheets)
• Signing and Striping plans at 1” = 40’ (5 sheets) – includes signing, striping, pavement marking, pavement markers, painted curb length, and loop detectors Curb and gutter profiles are not typically prepared for a pavement rehabilitation project. Although full reconstruction may be needed for these streets, it is not anticipated that curb and gutter would need to be replaced and therefore, no roadway profiles are included in this proposal.

The roadway plans will include removals, pavement rehabilitation improvements and utility adjustments. Curb ramps to be modified will be shown. No improvements are expected to the concrete portions of the roadways, i.e., curb and gutter, sidewalk, bridges, bus stops, bus turnouts, etc. The design will be ADA compliant.

Striping sheets will be prepared to replace the striping following the pavement rehabilitation. Changes from the existing striping are not anticipated, however, the striping must be restored. Additionally, loop detector replacements will be shown on the striping sheets. Existing signing will be inventoried during our field review for ease in re-creation on the plans. Modifications to signs are not anticipated.

We will prepare technical specifications in Word in conformance to the latest editions of the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Greenbook), City Standard plans, Standard Plans for Public Works Construction, State of California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) Standard Plans and Specifications, California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD), incorporating City general conditions.

Task 3.2 ADA Curb Ramps
Thirty-six (36) non-ADA curb ramps, based on our Google map observation, to be reconstructed will be shown on the layout and curb ramp detail sheets with the type of ramp per APWA standard drawings. The layout plan will also include a tabulated list detailing the types of curb, locations, and materials.

Aerial survey will be performed on existing curb ramps and curb returns at each of the 36 curb ramp locations to assess their ADA compliance. The survey will include existing curb ramp, surface utilities, other topographic features, etc. that will provide constraints to the curb ramp design.

We will perform a field review of each street segment and curb ramp locations and take photographs. The photographs will document the before condition. We will also identify and note specific site constraints and existing conditions as observed. We will summarize any findings of difference between our visual review and the as-builts. As-builts are expected to be provided by the City.

The cost estimate informs the City of the upcoming financial obligation and provides the engineer’s estimate. The estimate will show quantities and unit prices for each work item along with appropriate mobilization and contingency costs including utility adjustments, tie out and resetting of survey monuments, record and filing of corner records for the monuments. We will research the latest unit prices available and consult with the City on specific prices and use our own information from other recent bids as well as City of Lomita and other city’s cost data as available to ensure the unit prices are current.

We anticipate submittals of the plans at the 60%, 90%, and 100% level of completion. Review comments from the previous submittal will be addressed and responses will be provided with the latest submittal.

Task 3.4 Utility Research, Confirmation Letters, and Coordination Utility coordination can often be critical design function to ensure a smooth construction. If utility facilities are not identified, coordination is not made, and issues arise during construction it could cause a slow-down or stoppage leading to change orders. This task involves more than the collection and mapping of facilities, it involves continuing our contact with the owners after their facilities are mapped and our design has been determined such that conflicts can be identified and coordination ensued to develop an appropriate action plan.

We would begin by making contact with all utility companies with facilities within the project limits to inform them of this project and obtain their as-built plans to verify locations, types, and sizes of facilities and include on our base map. While vertical information is many times unavailable, we would need to coordinate with the owners to understand their depths and whether the new structural sections would impact the facilities. Once the information is added to our base maps, we would forward them to the utility companies for verification.

Following confirmation of mapping, this task includes continued coordination and related follow-up with the affected underground and overhead utility companies regarding the specific impact locations. We would preliminarily determine any conflicts the improvements would have with the utilities and summarize the information on the plans. A log of all coordination and correspondence would be maintained throughout the project development. We anticipate the utility conflicts would be minimal, consisting primarily of adjustment to grade of surface manholes and valve covers. We would, however, review the limits of the new structural section with the depth information to confirm there are no vertical conflicts.

Costs associated with utility surface features adjustments to grade would be included in our estimate. We do not anticipate a need for determination of prior rights since relocations and modifications to existing utility facilities are unlikely. Potholing is not anticipated to be necessary. No separate utility plans are anticipated.

Design of the relocation or modification of facilities is not included.

Task 4 – Bid Package
We will prepare a bid package which includes the plans and technical specifications.

Using the cost estimate as a basis, we will determine which items in the cost estimate will be included as contract items in the bid list. We have found an essential part of the PS&E is preparing a bid list which references the specific Contractor’s payment clause. By doing this, we ensure that all bid items have a clear manner of payment. We cross check the construction plans, cost estimate and bid item list to ensure all items of work have a means of payment and are accounted for in the bid and quantity estimate even if some bid items include multiple items as it is possible that the engineer’s cost estimate and bid proposal may not list items in Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *253

Task 5 – Bid and Construction Support
We will provide professional support during bidding process and construction activities. We will perform the following activities as requested.
• Provide answers and information to bid questions or inquiry • Attend pre-bid meeting
• Attend pre-construction meeting
• Review construction submittals (shop drawing review)
• Respond to Request for Information (RFI)
• Assist in cost estimate and analysis for Contract Change Order (CCO) Optional Tasks
Optional Task #1 - Conventional Ground Survey for four (4) streets Should the extent of reconstruction require the need for more precise plans for curb, gutter, and driveway replacement, we have included an optional task for additional conventional ground survey for four streets that would need curb, gutter, and driveway replacement. The streets included 240th Street from Eshelman Avenue to Walnut Street, 241st Street from Western Street End to Walnut Street, Callison Street from Stanhurst Avenue to Walnut Street, and Stanhurst Avenue from 241st Street to Callison Street. We would research horizontal and vertical control and recover nearby monuments for the basis of our surveys. Elevations would be established by conventional leveling from nearby County benchmarks. During this survey task, additional points may be established to facilitate the survey. We would utilize the City or County’s offices to obtain corner records, street centerline ties, record maps, benchmarks, and GPS control data.

The ground topographic survey for these four streets could be proposed to take 50-foot interval survey cross sections as needed to produce the construction details. The survey would be taken from right-of-way to right of way and include flow line, top of curb, edge of gutter, back of walk, roadway crown, and surface utilities.

Optional Task #2 –Conventional Ground Survey for thirty-six (36) Curb Ramps We would survey the intersection curb returns for ADA compliance and reconstruction of the curb ramps at 36 curb ramp locations. The survey would include existing curb ramp, flow line, top of curb, gutter lip, back of walk, surface utilities within each curb return from BCR to ECR.

Section 3.3: Key Project Concerns to Address
Pavement Determination Approach
Challenge: Due to visual signs of extensive pavement distress, the existing condition on at least 8 street segments may require full depth reclamation due to extent and severity of damage. See the photo to the right for the street segment along Walnut Street between 241st Street and Turrell Street. The City will be interested in an efficient and economical solution for the 20-year design life.

Solution: Based on sampling from our field investigation, we will evaluate conventional pavement sections with varying combinations of thicknesses of AC over aggregate base as well as full depth asphalt. Due to the extent of existing roadway dig outs (exceeding 40%), other remediation strategies become more viable and cost effective and therefore, we will consider full-depth reclamation (FDR) and cold central plant recycling (CCPR) which would be a beneficial environmental approach to make use of existing material. Following the identification of possible structural sections, we will perform value engineering and confer with the City for the appropriate design.

Discrepancies between the City ADA Curb Ramp Assessment Report vs Site Conditions Challenge: Based on the experience from Zones C & F project, City provided an ADA curb ramp assessment report indicating 77 curb ramps were not ADA compliant within the project limits. After our site/curb ramp review on the 77 curb ramps, we determined that only 37 curb ramps were non-ADA compliant. 40 curb ramps ($6,000 construction cost for each ramp and $240,000 construction cost in total) were ADA compliant per the latest APWA Standard and did not need reconstruction. As such, the assessment report could be outdated and a similar situation could happen for this Zone G project.

Solution: In order to determine if the discrepancies between the City-provided assessment report and the site conditions, our project manager/ADA designer will perform site review on all the curb ramps in Zone G and determine and report to the City which ramps are ADA compliant or non-ADA compliant. Like we did on the Zones C and F project, we will provide our comments on the assessment report and present it to the City for review. See the photos below for snapshots of our comments on the assessment report from the Zones C & F project and the associated curb ramp. We believe our comments will bring value to the project and City and help City to avoid the unnecessary construction cost.

Summary of Geotechnical Report and Recommendations
Challenge: Each street segment will have its own geotechnical report and 3 to 4 recommended alternatives from the report. It will be time consuming for City to read through the reports and select the best alternative for each street.

Solution: To avoid the City staff going through each separate roadway report, we will provide a summary of the geotechnical report recommendations (summarizing all the report’s recommendations), our recommendations, and associated cost estimate for the City to review and make their pavement decision. See the example below from the Zones C & F project which demonstrates the summary information we will provide to the City.

Challenge: Confirming the existing right of way limits when performing curb ramp design is important to ensure the curb ramp construction will be within public right of way, staying out of private property.

Solution: We will perform centerline and right of way field survey and basemapping. We will put the right of way line on the curb ramp construction details so that the new curb ramp will be shown clearly within the public right of way.

See the curb ramp construction detail #26 on the right from the Zones C & F project clearly indicating the right of way line.

Section 3.4: Quality Assurance/Quality Control
To ensure that all deliverables will be free of errors, our Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) program ensures correct and coordinated design documents.

Our QA/QC plan will include checking and cross-checking prior to each submittal. The QA/QC process begins at the onset of the project and will be in effect throughout the contract duration to meet the project and City’s guidelines and requirements during the project. Our reviewsinclude:

Inter-Discipline Review – Managers of each applicable discipline will review the plans, design and/or reports.

For all of our projects, we have a typical in-house protocol which all our employees follow for project filing of cadfiles, design documents and reports, source documents, meeting minutes, quality control records, etc. As such, any employee can look up any project through the job number and find project details readily. We additionally have the ability to share our documents through online file transfer applications, particularly if the documents are large sized. We also prepare, generally on our larger projects, a deliverables list. This list identifies all documents that will be submitted and provides a space to record the submittal date, comments received date, and responses date for each item. Additionally, as stated above, for utility information, we keep a separate utility matrix noting the correspondence dates of requests and receipt of information, size, and type of utility present, and whether it has been identified as conflicting. During the kickoff meeting with the City, we will determine what documentation the City would like and coordinate to the needed level.

EXHIBIT A-2

ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF WORK
FOR
Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G:
254th Street, 255th Street, Doria Avenue, additional portion of Walnut Street (including pavement, three curb extensions and six curb ramps) and
Alcor Street Fire Hydrant

David Evans and Associates, Inc. (DEA) agrees to perform the additional scope of work described herein, as requested by the City of Lomita for the Street Reconstruction Project – Zone G. We understand the City would like DEA to add design and construction support services for three streets to Zone G Street Reconstruction Phases 3 & 4 which include 254th Street, 255th Street, and Doria Avenue, as well as an additional portion of Walnut Street (including pavement rehabilitation between 253rd Street and 253rd Place as well as three curb extensions and six curb ramps on the northwest, northeast, and southwest corners at the intersection of 253rd Street and Walnut Street), and the design of a fire hydrant and lateral connection to the water main on Alcor Street. See Attachment 2 for project locations. Note time and materials charged will be only for the services requested and performed. If some services that are included in the amendment are not ultimately requested, then they would not be performed or invoiced.

Additional services are necessary because the original contract did not include 254th Street, 255th Street, Doria Avenue, the additional portion of Walnut Street (including pavement, curb extensions and curb ramps), and the fire hydrant and lateral on Alcor Street as part of Zone G Street Reconstruction Phases 3 & 4.

Task 1 – Meetings and Coordination
This task includes ongoing project coordination with internal DEA staff, subconsultants, City staff, and City representatives throughout the design phase of the project. Services will include participation in projectrelated virtual meetings, coordination of technical and administrative matters, and communication necessary to support project delivery.

This task also includes coordination with the Local Travel Network (LTN) project team to ensure consistency between the proposed project design and planned improvements at the intersection of Ebony Lane, Walnut Avenue, and 253rd Street. The budget for LTN coordination includes participation in up to five (5) virtual meetings, preparation and distribution of meeting minutes, and routine email correspondence associated with coordination activities.

Exhibit A-2 – Additional Scope of Work
June 23, 2026
17542 E. 17th Street Suite 150 Tustin California 92780
Task 2 – Site Walk
Due to the addition of newly proposed streets and the time elapsed since the original field review was completed, an updated site walk is recommended. The purpose of this effort is to document current site conditions through updated photographs and field observations, and to identify any changes that may affect the project, design assumptions, or proposed improvements. Findings from the site walk will be incorporated into the ongoing design review and project development process.

Task 3 – Field Topographic Survey and Base Mapping
Task 3 includes establishing project survey control, field topographic survey, and preparing base mapping within the project area by David Evans and Associates, Inc. including 255th street between Walnut Street and the City Limit (just west of Western Avenue), Doria Avenue, and 254th Street West of Cypress Street. The work includes research and review of available survey and land records, development of a preliminary CAD base map, establishment of horizontal and vertical control, field topography, and refinement of roadway centerline and right-of-way information. The resulting topographic base map will cover approximately 2,400 linear feet of roadway, including adjacent sidewalks, intersections, and publicly available easement information. Note for 254th Street, 255th Street, and Doria Avenue survey will capture from back of walk to back of walk and will exclude homeowner improvements within the right-of-way.

Task 4 – Utility Coordination
As utility record information has not yet been obtained for the proposed project streets, DEA will coordinate with the applicable utility providers to obtain the most current available utility as-built records and facility information for 254th Street, 255th Street, Doria Avenue, and Alcor Street.

The collected utility information will be reviewed and incorporated into the project design as appropriate to identify potential utility conflicts, improve design accuracy, and support project development.

Task 5 – Plans, Specifications and Estimate (PS&E)
In addition to the scope of work from Amendment #1, the Phase 3 and 4 PS&E package will be revised to incorporate the following scope of work changes:

1. 254th Street, 255th Street, Doria Avenue and additional portion of Walnut Street Rehabilitation – This will include additional typical sections, revisions to the plan set, added civil plan sheets, added signing and striping sheets (assumed 8 sheets total). The Treatment of each street has been determined from the 2024 Pavement Management Program Update. DEA will proceed with these recommendations which includes the following:
a. Doria Avenue – Grind and Overlay
b. 254th Street – Full Depth Reconstruction
c. 255th Street – A combination of Grind and Overlay (westerly side from Walnut Street to cross gutter) and Full Depth Reconstruction (easterly side from city limits to cross gutter) Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *278
Exhibit A-2 – Additional Scope of Work
June 23, 2026
17542 E. 17th Street Suite 150 Tustin California 92780
d. Walnut Street – Grind and Overlay from 253rd Street to new pavement just north of 253rd Place

2. Redesign the curb ramp on northerly corner of Cypress Street and 254th Street – The City identified this curb ramp as being non-compliant with ADA requirements and requiring removal and replacement. Additionally, a panel on the southwest cross gutter is damaged and will require replacement. A detail of this curb ramp will be provided but called out to be constructed per the applicable standard with no elevations.

3. 254th Street Gutter and Curb and Driveway Repairs – Remove and replace existing curb and gutter at the end of the cul-de-sac adjacent to the fire hydrant, approximately 15-feet. Driveway repair at address 2330 254th Street.

4. Proposed Fire Hydrant Connection – A fire hydrant is proposed at the end of Alcor Street. This will require design of the fire hydrant and the connection to the main water line.

Scope related to the Concept Design by the Toole Design Group curb extensions and curb ramps at 253rd Street and Walnut Street:

1. Four additional sheets for the detailing of curb extensions and associated curb ramps will be included.

Items not included in this scope package:

1. The following curb ramps do not appear to be out of compliance with ADA requirements and, therefore, are not included in this design. These include:
a. The curb ramps on Doria Avenue
b. The southwest curb ramp at Cypress Street and 254th Street Tuesday, July 07, 2026 Reg CC MTG, Page *279

PREPARED BY: Deanna Fraley, PE, Public Works Director
MEETING DATE: July 7, 2026
SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreements for On-call Capital Improvement Project Civil Engineering Services

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve Professional Services Agreements between the City of Lomita and Psomas, David Evans and Associates, Inc., Mark Thomas, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., General Technologies and Solutions Inc., and Transtech Engineering, Inc. for Capital Improvement Project Civil Engineering services for three-year terms, with the option to extend for two additional one-year terms, in an amount not to exceed $500,000 over three years for each agreement; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreements.

BACKGROUND
The City of Lomita delivers multiple capital improvement projects each year that require highly qualified civil engineering firms to augment capital improvement project workload throughout the year. These services include roadway design, water and sewer improvements, traffic engineering, structural engineering, survey, geotechnical engineering, utility coordination, and construction support. This use of contracted engineering firms can be scaled as needed depending on project complexity, staff vacancies, and technical specialties.

Ordinarily, the City prepares a separate engineering services Request for Proposals (RFP) for each CIP project. The cumbersome process typically takes about three months and involves preparation of the RFP, fee negotiations, contract preparation, City Council approval and award of contract.

To improve project delivery and efficiency, a pre-qualified list of on-call engineering firms is recommended. Utilizing on-call agreements eliminates the need to conduct a RFP process for each individual project, allowing projects to begin design much sooner while

2 still maintaining City Council oversight. Additionally, on-call contracts comply with the City’s procurement and are approved upon budget appropriation and authorization by the City Council.

Approval of these on-call agreements does not mean that the City will pay each firm $500,000, nor does it authorize work on any specific capital improvement project. Simply, the recommended action establishes a list of qualified consultants that may be utilized as needed and restricts the City from paying amounts beyond $500,000 over the life of the agreement. Although the contract “not-to-exceed” amounts are established, each project budget and funding appropriation will be reviewed and authorized by the City Council as the project construction is approved.

DISCUSSION
In May 2026, the Public Works Department issued a request for proposals (RFP) for oncall general civil engineering services. The scope of work called for proposa;s on a variety of civil engineering services including:
• Water and sanitary Sewer Analysis and Design
• Storm Sewer Analysis Design
• Dry Utility Design
• Traffic Analysis and Design
• Street Improvement Engineering
• Geotechnical Engineering
• Structural Analysis and Design
• Survey and Right-of-Way
• Project Management
• General Civil Engineering Design
The RFP was advertised through PlanetBids, and twelve proposals were received. A panel consisting of three Staff members representing the Public Works Department evaluated the proposals.

Based on the evaluation results and the City’s anticipated workload, staff recommends establishing on-call agreements with the six highest-ranked firms. Having multiple firms available provides flexibility to select consultants based on project type, technical expertise, staff availability, scheduling, and workload while maintaining competitive pricing and ensuring timely delivery of engineering services.

When a project requiring engineering services is identified, staff will prepare a projectspecific scope of work and negotiate a fee with the consultant best suited for that project.

Each project and its associated engineering fee will be presented to the City Council for separate approval before any design work is authorized. These agreements do not guarantee any minimum amount of work to any consultant and do not preclude the City from issuing separate Requests for Proposals when staff determines that doing so is in the City’s best interest.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of these agreements does not appropriate or obligate any funds and does not create an immediate fiscal impact.

The $500,000 “not-to-exceed” amount represents the maximum cumulative contract capacity available over the life of each agreement should future projects be assigned.

Actual expenditures will occur only if the City Council subsequently approves projectspecific task orders or design contracts. Any future engineering services performed under these agreements will likely be funded through the applicable Capital Improvement Program or operating budgets and will return to the City Council for approval as part of the project authorization process.

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No. 5: City Infrastructure & Water Utility – Investing in reliable, sustainable infrastructure.
