Spanish speaking woman mentioned that 510 Adell Street had been annexed into the City ten years ago without their consent and when they wanted to build a water well, they were told they had to pay to connect to City water.

SUMMARY:
The City is required by Government Code Sections 36506 and 37206 and the California Code of Regulations, title 2, §570.5 to publicly adopt its pay schedule. While the City publicly adopts individual actions such as agreements with labor units and employees or classification plan amendments, the City also publicly adopts a consolidated schedule for all full time positions that is posted to the City’s website.

DISCUSSION:
California Government Code §36506 and §37206 and California Code of Regulations, title 2, §570.5 require the City to publicly adopt its pay schedule.

As such, staff has prepared an update to the consolidated City of Madera Full Time Salary Schedule to include a 3% COLA for the City Manager position that was provided in the 1
st Amendment to the City Manager At-Will Employment Agreement approved at the February 4, 2026, City Council meeting. This is the only change on the consolidated schedule since the last iteration.

SUBJECT:
Temporary overfill of Mechanic budgeted positions
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution approving a temporary overfill for the Mechanic classification due to specialized training requirements
SUMMARY:
The adopted Fiscal Year (FY) operating budget includes both appropriated funds and position count authorizations. The FY 2025/26 Adopted Budget includes approval for five (5) full-time Mechanic positions in the Fleet Services Division. The City has received notice that the Mechanic currently trained on and dedicated to police vehicles will be retiring in August 2026. Staff is seeking approval to temporarily overfill the Mechanic position count by one (1) full-time employee to facilitate training and knowledge transfer. The requested action will require a budget amendment, with funds appropriated from the Equipment Maintenance Fund’s unobligated fund balance.
DISCUSSION:
The City’s adopted FY 2025/26 operating budget includes five (5) full-time Mechanics who provide vehicle maintenance and upfit services for City vehicles. There are two (2) Mechanics who service non-police fleet vehicles, one (1) Mechanic whose focus is police vehicles, and two (2) Mechanics dedicated to transit vehicles. At this time, the City has received notice that the Mechanic who specializes in police vehicles will be retiring in August 2026. Police vehicles include equipment and upfit requirements unique to public safety. To ensure a smooth knowledge transfer and transition in staff and mitigate the potential for extended downtime of public safety vehicles during the transition, the department would like to begin recruiting for a new Mechanic with an anticipated hire date of May 2026.
Council Meeting of: February 18, 2026
Agenda Number: _________ B-3
RETURN TO AGENDA
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The City’s adopted budget includes appropriations for existing staff. The requested action will require a budget amendment for two (2) months of pay and one (1) month of health benefits to proceed with the temporary overfill. The total anticipated cost for a Mechanic I for the desired time period in FY 2025/26 is $10,575. There are sufficient funds available in the Equipment Maintenance Fund’s unobligated fund balance to cover this propose expenditure. Staff has included a budget amendment in this agenda item to appropriate the monies into the correct expensing orgs.
In addition to current FY expenses, the requested action will also incur two (2) months’ salary and benefits in FY 2026/27. If approved, staff will include the necessary funds when the budget is presented for consideration.
ALTERNATIVES:
Council could direct staff to shorten or lengthen the duration of the Mechanic position overfill.

SUBJECT:
Fee waivers for all 2026 City-run baseball programs
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution waiving the registration for City-run T-ball and Coach Pitch Leagues for 2026
SUMMARY:
Staff is requesting City Council (Council) approval to waive all applicable fees associated with Cityrun youth baseball programs for the upcoming season. This request applies to the T-Ball League for ages 3–4 and the Coach Pitch League for ages 5–7.
Waiving program fees will reduce financial barriers for families, increase participation, and support the City’s goal of providing accessible recreational opportunities for youth.
DISCUSSION:
The City has offered recreational baseball for children ages 3 to 7 for many years. Baseball has long been a staple in the community; however, recent seasons have seen a decline in participation within this age group. While the program served 370 participants in 2023, enrollment declined significantly to 211 participants in 2024 and continued to drop to 193 participants in 2025.
This downward trend highlights the need to explore strategies that reduce barriers to participation and re-engage families in youth sports programming. In an effort to increase enrollment, the City previously reduced registration fees from $65 to $55, consistent with the adopted Master Fee Schedule. To further address declining participation and reduce barriers to Council Meeting of: February 18, 2026
Agenda Number: ________ B-4
RETURN TO AGENDA
entry, staff is proposing to eliminate registration fees entirely for City-run baseball programs for ages 3 to 7.
This initiative would help alleviate financial burdens on families while providing young players the opportunity to experience the sport, build foundational skills, and encourage long-term participation in baseball.
The City’s youth baseball league operates from April through June at Lions Town and Country Park. Each team is scheduled designated field time for both practices and games, with teams practicing once per week. Games are held on Saturday mornings, creating a family-friendly environment where parents, siblings, and community members gather to support the players.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Waiving participant fees for City-run youth baseball leagues will result in a reduction in revenue.
However, this impact is expected to be offset by significant community benefits, including increased youth participation, improved access to recreational programming for the community, and greater use of City parks and facilities. Removing financial barriers encourages more families to engage in City programs, supports youth physical activity and health, and strengthens overall community involvement in parks and recreation services.
Table 1: Youth Baseball Revenue by Year
Year Breakdown Fees Collected
2023 370 players x $60 per player $22,200
2024 211 players x $60 per player $12,660
2025 193 players x $55 per player $10,615
Table 2: Youth Baseball Expenses Yearly (Estimated)
Direct player cost (hat & shirt) $16.50/player
Team equipment (bases, tees, balls, bags) $1,000
Safety equipment (helmets, first aid, staff supplies) $1,000 ALTERNATIVES:
The Council may ask staff to bring back additional information for consideration at the next available meeting.
Council may also reject the registration waiver for the City-run T-ball and Coach Pitch Leagues season 2026, and require all participants to remit any associated fees.
ATTACHMENTS:
1. Resolution – Waiving the registration fees for City-run T-ball and Coach Pitch Leagues for 2026
RESOLUTION NO. 26-_____
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MADERA, CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE WAIVER OF REGISTRATION FEES CITYRUN T-BALL AND COACH PITCH LEAGUES FOR 2026 WHEREAS, the City currently offers fee-based T-ball and Coach Pitch baseball leagues for the youth of the community; and
WHEREAS, the registration fees for T-ball and Coach Pitch baseball are based on the City of Madera Master Fee Schedule; and
WHEREAS, staff are proposing to waive registration fees for 2026 related to the T-ball and Coach Pitch leagues; and
WHEREAS, the registration fees can act as a financial barrier, preventing many families from enrolling their children in recreational sports programs; and WHEREAS, the City desires to maximize participation in its youth baseball leagues by eliminating these financial hurdles; and
WHEREAS, the proposed fee structure will reduce the cost per player from $65.00 to a zero-fee for 2026.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MADERA hereby resolves, finds, determines and orders as follows:
1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and incorporated herein by reference.
2. The Council finds that the waiver of fees as set forth in this resolution serves a valid public purpose in that the City would like to eliminate financial barriers to youth in the community and thus provide more accessibility to recreation-based baseball programming for the whole community.
3. The City Council does hereby waive the City fees for T-ball and Coach Pitch for the 2026 leagues.

Certificate of Recognition Honoring Linda Garner
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Minute Order approving a Certificate of Recognition honoring Linda Garner founder of Doors of Hope
SUMMARY:
On August 2, 2023, the City Council adopted a policy governing the issuance of ceremonial documents, including certificates of recognition. The policy ensures a transparent and systematic process, requiring requests to be submitted in writing at least 45 days prior to the requested presentation date.
In this context, Margaret McGuire, Director of Doors of Hope Parenting & Pregnancy Center, submitted a written request on January 26, 2026, for a Certificate of Recognition honoring Linda Garner for establishing Doors of Hope in Madera.
Doors of Hope was established in May 2003 in response to the relatively high teen pregnancy rates in Madera County. The organization provides free parenting and pregnancy support services, including prenatal and post-natal classes, parenting education, life-skills programs, counseling, and material assistance such as diapers, formula, clothing, and other infant necessities.
Since its founding, the program has assisted more than 5,000 women, men, and children in the community by providing free services and support.
Council Meeting of: February 18, 2026
Agenda Number: ___B-5 ______ _
RETURN TO AGENDA
Linda Garner, founder of Doors of Hope, passed away on June 7, 2025. The requested certificate would be presented at an upcoming City Council meeting, with a commemorative event planned for May 2026 to mark the anniversary of the founding of Doors of Hope.
Per the Ceremonial Documents policy, signatures shall be reserved for Councilmembers who vote in the affirmative. For Councilmembers that vote in the negative, their signature block shall be omitted from the ceremonial document unless they notify the City Clerk in writing otherwise at least five business days prior to the meeting when the Proclamation will be issued.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There were nominal expenses for the preparation of this report or the proclamation. Costs related to custom supplies such as proclamations, certificates, frames, and folders have been purchased, and funds were appropriated in the adopted budget.
ALTERNATIVES:
If approved by a majority vote, staff will prepare the Certificate of Recognition for presentation at the April 15th City Council meeting and during the commemorative event in May 2026. In the alternative, Council may:
Deferral for Further Discussion: Council may opt to defer the decision for further discussion, allowing additional time to address specific concerns or gather more information.

Request for a Certificate of Recognition
1. Date when the act or accomplishment occurred: Doors of Hope was established in May of 2003.
2. Name of the individual or organization to whom the certificate will be addressed: Linda Garner for establishing Doors of Hope Parenting & Pregnancy Center
3. Purpose or reason for the certificate: To acknowledge and recognize Linda Garner as the founder and person who started Doors of Hope for the town of Madera.
4. Linda Garner founded Doors of Hope because she recognized that back in 2003, Madera County had the third highest rate of teen pregnancies in the state, and she felt the need for something to be done. Being a woman of strong faith, she met with some women, and they ended up starting the paperwork to get Doors of Hope activated. Someone gave her $500 to get started and it took off from there. We are a parenting and pregnancy resource center that is a non-profit organization that serves the community by offering all types of sessions (classes), from prenatal to post-natal care for their children. We offer basic infant care programs, parenting sessions of couples, singles, or blended families. There are also sessions in co-parenting for divorced or separated parents, life skills education, anger management, and marriage as well as ACE overcomers counseling. We also offer spiritual support and being pro-life we provide alternatives to aborting the baby. We also offer an Earn While You Learn (EWYL) program which provides the clients with free diapers every month and other donated items we get from the outside public. Included in our free items we offer are baby food, formula, baby clothes, strollers, car seats, toys, highchairs, playpens, books, and other baby related items. All these services are free.
5. Significance of this program has helped over 5,000 women, men and children of this community since it began. Offering free services eases the financial burdens they face and gives them a place of safety and security to express their concerns.
6. Date of Event would be in May of 2026 to commemorate the anniversary of the beginning of Doors of Hope. I would like to present this before the City Council to get the certificate issued.
Let me know if there is any more information you need.

To Whom It May Concern
RE: Madera Youth Leaders Chapter (MYL)
The California Friday Night Live Collaborative (CFNLC) is the body of county Friday Night Live Partnership program coordinators in California making a coordinated commitment to the mission and principles of Friday Night Live. The FNL system is the Collaborative.
Underage drinking plays a monumental role in risky behaviors that can significantly impact the lives of young people and those around them. With so much risk, it is hard to comprehend why youth continue to report easy access to alcohol, experience community norms that condone underage and binge drinking, and are consistently bombarded with media messages that promote alcohol consumption.
Madera County sits in Region 1 in the State of California. MYL will be heading a campaign project in partnership with CFNLP and the importance of prevention of underage drinking. Due to the growing number of youths currently participating in these prevention efforts, our chapter is looking to find a facility that can accommodate our all our youth participants for a Underage Drinking-DUI Special Training with California Highway Patrol on February 20th between 4:30pm-7:00pm.
FNL Standards of Practice directly align with the five core competencies of social emotional learning (SEL):
o Self-awareness
o Self-management
o Relationship skills
o Social awareness
o Responsible decision-making
These SEL core competencies are naturally woven throughout all FNL programs, especially as FNL seeks to address mental health challenges facing today’s youth. Program evaluation demonstrates that FNL builds resiliency and protective factors that promote positive behaviors, including choosing not to use substances and promoting overall well-being.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Thank you for supporting our youth’s involvement in positive community service and leadership.
Sincerely,
Melissa Gamiz, BS Psychology, CADC III

SUBJECT:
Actions Relating to Sienna Estates Subdivision, Phase 2 RECOMMENDATION:
1. Adopt a Resolution:
a. Approving the Final Map for the Sienna Estates Phase 2 Subdivision (Tract No. 22-S01). b. Approving Revised and Restated Improvement Agreement for the Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 1 (Agreement) (Tract No. 05-S-19) and Phase 2 (Tract No. TSM 22- S-01).
c. Authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans for roadway improvements along State Route 145.
d. Authorizing staff to record the Phase 2 Final Map and Agreement. e. Accepting the Dedication of Land for Public Use.
2. Adopt a Resolution Initiating Proceedings Pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 for the Annexation of Property into City of Madera Landscape Maintenance District Zone of Benefit 45A, to Review the Improvements and Assessments for Fiscal Year 2024/25, and Setting a Public Hearing
SUMMARY:
On January 11, 2005, the City’s Planning Commission approved Tentative Subdivision Map No. TSM VIII-04-18 for the Sienna Estates Subdivision (“Project”), with Madera Sienna, LLC. Madera Sienna, LLC lost ownership of the Project as part of the Great Recession, and the property was subsequently acquired by BHT II Madera 113, LLC. On September 12, 2017, the City’s Planning Commission approved a modification of conditions to Tentative Subdivision Map No. TSM VIII-04-18. The modification, TSM 2005- Council Meeting of: February 18, 2026
Agenda Number: ___B-8_____
RETURN TO AGENDA
15 Mod was prepared at the request by the then owner to provide clarification and specificity to the original conditions for the Project. On January 12, 2021, the City’s Planning Commission approved a two-year extension of Tentative Subdivision Map No. TSM VIII-04-18. All previously approved conditions of approval remained in effect after this extension. Two new conditions were added. The first extended the map for the requested two-year extension. The second requires TSM 2005-15 MOD to comply with City’s adoption of the Parkland Acquisition Ordinance Act authorizing the City to require dedication of parkland or the payment of fees in-lieu of such dedication in effect since May 21, 2018.
Subsequently, the new owners, Tarlton Properties, LLC, Tarlton Las Vegas, LLC and Tarlton Fresno, (collectively referred to as Subdivider), are now ready to proceed with completion of both phases of Sienna Estates; that of the partially completed Phase 1 and that of the yet to begin Phase 2 under the modified terms and conditions associated with actions taken by the Planning Commission on September 12, 2017 and January 12, 2021.
Attachment 1 illustrates a Project Location Map.
Approval of the Agreement will allow the Subdivider to be assigned all relevant requirements for completion of public improvements associated with the Project.
DISCUSSION:
The Final Map illustrated in Attachment 2 for the Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 1 was approved on April 19, 2006, by the City Council (Council). The Final Map for Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 2 has been checked and approved by the City Engineer. The Phase 2 Final Map substantially complies with the approved tentative map.
Annexation of the Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 2 (Tract No. 20-S-01) into LMD Zone of Benefit 45A is one component of the Project that must be approved prior to recordation of the Phase 2 Final Map.
Prior to recordation of the Phase 2 Final Map and the Agreement:
Annexation of the Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 2 (Tract No. 20-S-01) into LMD Zone of Benefit 45A shall be completed. A second meeting to complete this process will be scheduled as part of this action.
Annexation of the Project into the City’s Community Facilities District (CFD) shall be completed through a separate action to be presented to the Council. All taxes will be paid.
Bonds and insurance requirements will be provided or as part of an encroachment permit application to construct off-site improvements in advance of the approval of the Agreement.
Plan Check & Inspection Fees will be provided or as part of an encroachment permit application to construct off-site improvements in advance of the approval of the Agreement.
In conjunction with the Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 1 (Tract No. 05-S-19) Final Map, a Subdivision Agreement was also approved and recorded. As part of this action, the Subdivider and City have agreed that a new agreement as referenced earlier as a Revised and Restated Improvement Agreement (Agreement) should be prepared for the purposes of assigning all relevant requirements associated with the original Subdivision Agreement to the current Subdivider. In addition, the Agreement includes additional provisions associated with the 2017 modification and the 2021 extension as well as those improvements associated with Phase 2.
On April 19, 2006, the Council approved annexation of Phase 1 of the Project into Zone of Benefit 45A of Citywide LMD. The LMD Covenant has been previously recorded. As part of this action, the Subdivider has signed a Petition (Including Consent and Waiver) Requesting Annexation of Phase 2 into LMD Zone of Benefit 45A. (See Attachment 2).
Given the time frame in which Tract No. 05-S-19 was originally approved, it was not included in the City’s Community Facilities District (CFD). It was also not included as part of the 2017 modification and the 2021 extension though the remaining lots can be annexed through inclusion in the Agreement if agreed to by the Subdivider, to which the Subdivider has agreed. If Phase 2 is annexed as proposed, the original 24 lots constructed as part of Sienna Estates Subdivision Phase 1 will not be responsible for payment of the special tax associated with the CFD.
Conditions of approval for this subdivision required construction of permanent storm drainage improvements or construction of temporary facilities that would accommodate runoff from the subdivision. In satisfaction of that condition, the original developer constructed a temporary storm drainage basin to the northeast. Following the beginning of the Great Recession, it became evident that the original subdivider did not secure title to the basin as required to ensure usage until permanent facilities could be constructed. In 2021, Council directed staff to accept an offer to purchase the land associated with the basin. The basin was purchased in November 2021. As such, one of the impediments associated with this subdivision’s continuing development was removed. That impediment being the ability to direct storm runoff away from the subdivision and to safely retain it in a basin. Capacity of the basin was reviewed again by the developer’s engineer as part of the Phase 2 improvement plans.
This subdivision has frontage on Yosemite Avenue which is also known as State Route 145. As a result of State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) requirements not previously seen by staff before this particular project, construction of Yosemite Avenue is subject to the City entering into a Cooperative Agreement with Caltrans. The Cooperative Agreement includes a substantial number of requirements. While the requirements largely must be performed by the Subdivider, the Cooperative Agreement must be executed between Caltrans and the City with the City being held responsible for all such requirements. It is believed that all future projects within the City will be held to the same standard. It is also understood that this Cooperative Agreement is now standard across other city and county agencies with frontage to Caltrans facilities. Given the need for the Cooperative Agreement, the Agreement includes provisions that make the Subdivider responsible for all provisions within the Cooperative Agreement regardless of the fact they are not required to sign it. The Subdivider will also be responsible for all City costs associated with oversight of the Cooperative Agreement provisions to be performed by the Subdivider.
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15268(b)(3), approval of final subdivision maps is a ministerial action and is exempt from the requirements of CEQA.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Parcels within the subdivision will be responsible for participating in the cost of maintaining existing and proposed landscaping within the subject zone. As such, there are no financial impacts to the General Fund so long as assessments are adjusted promptly.
In addition to the LMD, the majority of this subdivision will also be included in the CFD, which is processed separately from the LMD. Including this subdivision in both districts assists in offsetting any impacts to the City’s General Fund.
ALTERNATIVES:
Not approve one or more items associated with this Staff Report. If Council does not approve the Final Map, the execution of the Agreement and the annexation of the parcels into the existing LMD zone, it would result in the inability to record the Final Map and for the Subdivider to complete the Project. Disapproval will require the Council to make certain findings that specific conditions have not been met.

City may do, or cause to be done, those acts required of Owner, and shall have recourse against so much of the security as is necessary to discharge the responsibility of Owner. In the event City seeks recourse against a security, City shall also have recourse against Owner for any and all amounts necessary to complete the obligations of Owner in the event the security is insufficient to pay such amounts.

L. Cooperative Agreement
Work on State of California Department of Transportation (referred to as Caltrans) highways requires that local agencies enter into a Cooperative Agreement prior to an encroachment permit being granted to Owner. In this case, said work consists of off-site improvements to be constructed by the Owner within State Route 145 (Yosemite Avenue) as part of the Sienna Estates Phase II subdivision. Due to Caltrans policies, Owner is not a party to the Cooperative Agreement.
The City would not approve either this Agreement or the Final Map and would instead make this Agreement expressly subject to the Cooperative Agreement, when the Cooperative Agreement was finalized and executed. However, Owner has requested this Agreement be approved subject to and in compliance with Cooperative Agreement at Owner’s request. In City’s reliance thereon Owner agrees it is fully responsible for adhering to and complying with any obligations of the City or otherwise required by Caltrans as set forth in the Cooperative Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit “D” and which may be updated in the City’s sole discretion. Within 15 days of any demand by the City, Owner shall reimburse the City for all invoiced City costs or expenditures associated with the City’s execution and implementation of the Cooperative Agreement. Failure by Owner to comply with the obligations to comply with the requirements of the Cooperative Agreement or promptly reimburse the City for its costs shall be a breach of this Agreement.

JJ. TERMS OF REIMBURSEMENTS TO BE PROVIDED TO OWNER
The following terms shall apply to any and all reimbursements to be provided to Owner.
1. City agrees to reimburse Owner the City’s proportionate share of the cost of improvements as determined by the City Engineer at his sole discretion and whose decision shall be final and as set forth below. At the discretion of the City Engineer any reimbursements shall be in the form of credits toward storm drainage, water main, water well, and street impact fees or from the collection of storm drainage, water main, water well and street impact fees or connection fees as applicable from other developments using said facilities as said fees are collected or a combination thereof. City shall not reimburse any expenses beyond the actual and reasonable cost of installing the improvements. All reimbursements are subject to the conditions precedent that the Owner shall have submitted a financial statement within ninety (90) days of the City’s acceptance of the improvements, showing evidence of the actual cost of the improvements described in this agreement. Evidence shall be provided in the form of receipted bills, canceled checks and/or construction contracts. Failure to timely submit evidence shall void the reimbursement agreement as to any items not timely submitted or not supported by such evidence. Any cost to be reimbursed for administration or overhead shall not exceed the usual and customary cost for such expenses in the industry, and in no event shall they exceed fifteen percent (15%). Such cost shall be determined in the sole discretion of the City Engineer. City agrees to reimburse Owner for the cost of interest in accordance with Government Code Section 66485. The interest begins to accrue at the time of City’s acceptance of the improvements. The interest rate to be paid is the interest rate that is set by the City’s Municipal Code at the time of request for reimbursement, and shall run through the time that the request for reimbursement is made by the Owner, but in no event shall interest be paid for more than 60 days. Notwithstanding, no interest shall accrue or be paid in the event the account from which reimbursements are to be paid does not have sufficient funds to make the reimbursement. Phase 1 is excluded from consideration for interest as it was not assumed a component of the original Subdivision Agreement. For reimbursements requested for Phase 1 improvements performed by a prior owner, Owner agrees to defend, hold harmless, and indemnify the City in the event that a prior owner make any claim against the City for the same.
2. City does not guarantee reimbursement, where reimbursements are made from impact fees or connection fees as those fees are collected. The City shall have no responsibility for the delivery of the funds collected hereunder to Owner and only agrees to hold said funds collected and to make payment as directed by Owner upon contact by City. City will contact Owner within ninety (90) days of collection of funds at the address as specified in this agreement or as may thereafter be provided in writing to the City Clerk of the City. City shall have no obligation to locate or determine the true address of Owner other than the addresses provided under this Agreement. If no contact has been made at the address provided under this Agreement, City shall hold such funds collected hereunder for a period of one (1) year. Undistributed funds shall then be paid into the appropriate Impact or Connection Fee fund, the Owner waives all claims to any further reimbursements, and all responsibilities and liabilities of City to reimburse shall terminate.

SUBJECT:
Traffic Signal Installation at South and D Streets City Project No. TS-32, Federal Project CML 5157 (125)
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the contract award for Traffic Signal Installation at South and D Streets City Project No. TS-32, Federal Project CML 5157 (125), for $432,367 to St Francis Electric, LLC and adopting a CEQA Class 2 (Existing Facilities) categorical exemption for the project.
SUMMARY:
On January 27, 2026 the City received seven bids for Traffic Signal Installation at South and D Streets City Project No. TS-32, Federal Project CML 5157 (125) (Project). The project is funded from a combination of Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Improvement Program funds, Measure T – RTP/3R, and Local Transportation Funds (LTF). St Francis Electric, LLC. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid.
BACKGROUND:
Three traffic signal projects were originally combined into a larger project for bidding which included CIP Projects TS-23 (Howard, Pine, Yosemite, and Q Signal Modifications), TS-24 (new signal at Cleveland Avenue and Granada Drive), and TS-32 (new signal at South Street and D Street). That combined project went out to bid twice, in November 2023 and in August 2025.
Both times all bids were rejected by the City Council. In the case of the bids received in November of 2023 the bids were rejected due to TS-23 bids being an approximate $340,000 above the engineer’s estimate and therefore also above what was budgeted for the project. Staff then reviewed the TS-23 project and modified the bid documents and scope of work in an effort to reduce costs for future bids. In August of 2025 the combined project was rebid and once again rejected. Three bids were received in 2025; however the two lowest bids were deemed non1 Approved by:

RETURN TO AGENDA
responsive due to missing Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) documentation. The third bid was found responsive, however, again, the bid for TS-23 was approximately $255,000 above the engineer’s estimate and thus all bids were rejected. In order to keep the projects moving toward construction Staff made the decision to separate the three projects and solicit bids individually.
DISCUSSION:
The work at this location generally consists of installing a new traffic signal system in place of the current all-way stop controlled intersection. The project includes traffic signal pole installation, cabinets, pullboxes, conduits, conductors, push buttons, Emergency Vehicle Pre-emption (EVP), programming the signal controller for signal timing, signing, and striping.
On December 17, 2025, the City released the projects for public bidding on the PlanetBids web portal. Also, a “Notice Inviting Bids” was duly published in the Madera Tribune Newspaper on December 17 and December 24. Bidders could download the plans and specifications from PlanetBids.
On January 27, 2026, seven bids were received. The bids were checked for accuracy against bidding requirements, validity of licenses, and bid security. The bids received are summarized in Table 1.
Table 1: Bid Summary
Bidder Bid
1. St Francis Electric, LLC $432,367
2. C3 Electric, Inc. $442,900
3. PTM General Engineering Service, Inc. $484,048

6. Tennyson Electric, LLC $586,510
7. Audeamus, dba Sebastian $843,062
Engineer’s Estimate $509,202
The project construction budget based on award to the low bidder and funding sources are outlined in Table 2.

Line Item Amount
St Francis Electric, LLC. Contract $432,367
Construction Management, Inspection and Testing $60,000 Project Contingency $43,236.70
Total Project Budget $535,603.70
Funding Source
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) $323,500
Measure T – RTP/3R $60,000
Local Transportation Fund (LTF) $229,750
Total Funding Source $613,250
St Francis Electric, LLC. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid that meets the contract requirements.
Staff recommends award of the Project to St Francis Electric, LLC. in the amount of $432,367.00 and inclusive of a provision of 10 percent of contract amount for allowable project contingencies as approved by the City Engineer.
Due to the long lead time for signal materials, approximately 6-9 months in most cases, staff does not anticipate this signal being constructed and operational by the start of the 2026/2027 school year.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff has performed a preliminary environmental assessment of this project and has determined that this project would be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities), as the project would consist of alterations to an existing highway or street which do not create additional automobile lanes.
Further, none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 are applicable. The Notice of Exemption was filed with the County Clerk on October 5, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact on the City’s General Fund. Funding for this project comes from CMAQ grant funds, Local Transportation Fund (LTF), and Measure T – RTP/3R.
ALTERNATIVES:
An alternative to awarding the contract is for the City Council to reject all bids. However, as noted above, this project has already been rebid on two prior occasions, making this the third solicitation. Staff does not anticipate that issuing a fourth bid would yield more favorable pricing; on the contrary, additional delay could result in higher bid submissions due to market volatility and inflationary pressures. Furthermore, rebidding may jeopardize the City’s ability to utilize the allocated Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds within required timelines, thereby risking the potential loss of that funding.

In the event the CONTRACTOR shall neglect to prosecute the work properly or fail to perform any provisions of the CONTRACT, the OWNER, after three days written notice to the CONTRACTOR, may, without prejudice to any other remedy it may have, make good such deficiencies and may deduct the cost thereof from the payment then or thereafter due to the CONTRACTOR, subject to final settlement between the parties as in this paragraph herein above provided.
8A. CLAIMS RESOLUTION PROCESS FOR DISPUTES.
It is the intent of this Contract that disputes regarding the Contract be resolved promptly and fairly between the Contractor and the Owner. However, it is recognized that some disputes will require detailed investigation and review by one or both parties before a determination and resolution can be reached. For the protection of the rights of both the Contractor and the Owner, the following provisions are provided for the resolution of disputes which cannot be resolved by the Owner and the Contractor within three business days after either party gives verbal notice of dispute or potential dispute to the other's attention and prior to the commencement of such work.
The following provisions are intended by Contractor and Owner to comply with Public Contract Code Sections 9204 and 20104 et. seq.
A. Claims:
The term “claim” refers to a separate demand by Contractor sent by registered mail or certified mail with return receipt requested, for one or more of the following:
1. A time extension, including, without limitation, for relief from damages or penalties for delay assessed by Owner under this Contract.
2. Payment by the Owner of money or damages arising from work done by, or on behalf of, the Contractor pursuant to the Contract and payment for which is not otherwise expressly provided or to which the Contractor is not otherwise entitled.
3. Payment of an amount that is disputed by the Owner.
B. The Claim Must Be Timely and in Writing:
For all claims the claim must be in writing and include the documents necessary to substantiate the claim. A notice of potential claim must be filed within five (5) business days of Contractor’s completion of work that is a potential claim. Notice of an actual claim must be filed on or before the date of final payment.
C. Receipt of Claim by Owner:
Upon receipt of a claim pursuant to this section, the Owner will conduct a reasonable review of the claim and, within a period not to exceed 45 days from the date of receipt, will provide the Contractor with a written statement identifying what portion of the claim is disputed and what portion is undisputed. Upon receipt of a claim, Owner and Contractor may, by mutual agreement, extend the time period provided in this section.
The Contractor shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim.
If additional information is thereafter required, it shall be requested and provided upon mutual agreement by the Owner and the Contractor. The District's written response to the claim, as further documented, shall be submitted to the claimant within 30 days after receipt of the further documentation, or within a period of time no greater than that taken by the Contractor in producing the additional information or requested documentation.
D. City Council Approval:
If the Owner needs approval from the City Council to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the City Council does not meet within the 45 days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the Owner shall have up to three days following the next duly publicly noticed regular meeting of the City Council after the 45-day period or extension expires to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion.
E. Payment of Claim:
Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the Owner issues its written statement. If the Owner fails to issue a written statement, paragraph F below shall apply.
F. Meet and Confer:
If the Contractor disputes the Owner’s written response, or if the Owner fails to respond to a claim issued pursuant to this section within the time prescribed, the Contractor may demand in writing an informal conference to meet and confer for settlement of the issues in dispute. Upon receipt of a demand in writing sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the Owner shall schedule a meet and confer conference within 30 days for settlement of the dispute.
Within 10 business days following the conclusion of the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion of the claim remains in dispute, the Owner shall provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the portion of the claim that remains in dispute and the portion that is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the Owner issues its written statement. Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the Owner and the Contractor sharing the associated costs equally. The Owner and Contractor shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing.
If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. If mediation is unsuccessful, the parts of the claim remaining in dispute shall be subject to applicable procedures outside this section.
Under this Contract, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in this section.
Unless otherwise agreed to by the Owner and the Contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Public Contract Code Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced.
If mediation as set forth above does not resolve the parties’ dispute, the parties will proceed to arbitration of disputes under private arbitration or the Public Works Contract Arbitration Program.
G. Filing a Government Code Written Claim Notice:
Following the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion remains in dispute, the Contractor may file a claim under the Torts Claims Act as provided in Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 900) and Chapter 2 commencing with Section 910) of Part 3 of Division 3.6 of Title 1 of the Government Code Section 900.
H. Owner’s Failure to Respond to Claim:
Failure by the Owner to respond to a claim from Contractor within the time periods described above or to otherwise meet the time requirements set forth above shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. A claim that is denied by reason of the Owner’s failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute an adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility or qualifications of the Contractor.
I. Reserved.
J. Subcontractor Claims:
If a subcontractor or a lower tier subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against Owner because privity of contract does not exist, the Contractor may present to the Owner a claim on behalf of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “subcontractor’ means any type of subcontractor within the meaning of Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code who either is in direct contract with the Contractor or is a lower tier subcontractor. A subcontractor may request in writing, either on his or her own behalf or on behalf of a lower tier subcontractor, that the Contractor present a claim for work which was performed by the subcontractor or by a lower tier subcontractor on behalf of the subcontractor. The subcontractor requesting that the claim be presented to the Owner shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. Within 45 days of receipt of this written request, the Contractor shall notify the subcontractor in writing as to whether the contractor presented the claim to the Owner and, if the original contractor did not present the claim, provide the subcontractor with a statement of the reasons for not having done so.
K. Filing of Action on Unresolved Claims:
The parties shall follow the procedures set forth in Public Contracts Code Section 20104.4 if an action is filed to resolve claims under the foregoing provisions. Any action shall be filed in Madera County.
9. Attention is directed to Section 1735 of the Labor Code, which reads as follows:
“No discrimination shall be made in the employment of persons upon public works because of the race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, physical disability, mental disability, medical conditions, marital status, or sex of such persons except as provided in Section 12940 of the Government Code, and every contractor for public works violating this section is subject to all the penalties imposed for by violation of this chapter”.
10. In accordance with the provisions of Article 5, Chapter l, Part 7, Division 2 (commencing with Section 1860) and Chapter 4, Part l, Division 4 (commencing with Section 3700) of the Labor Code of the State of California, the CONTRACTOR is required to secure the payment of compensation to his employees and shall for that purpose obtain and keep in effect adequate Worker’s Compensation Insurance.
The undersigned CONTRACTOR is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which requires every employer to be insured against Liability for Worker’s Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions before commencing the performance of the WORK of this Agreement.
11. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Part 7, Chapter l, Article 2, Section 1775 of the Labor Code of the State of California. The CONTRACTOR shall, as a penalty to the OWNER, forfeit fifty dollars ($50.00) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each workman paid less than the prevailing rates for such work or craft in which such workman is employed for any public work done under the Contract by him or by any SUBCONTRACTOR under him. The difference between such prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each workman for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each workman was paid less than a prevailing wage rate, shall be paid to each workman by the CONTRACTOR.
12. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Part 7, Chapter l, Article 2, Section 1776 of the Labor Code of the State of California. The CONTRACTOR shall keep and require that all SUBCONTRACTORS keep accurate payroll records showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice worker or other employee employed by him in connection with public work. Such payroll records shall be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of the CONTRACTOR by the OWNER, its officers and agents and to the representatives of the Division of Labor Law Enforcement of the State Department of Industrial Relations. In the event of non-compliance with the requirements of Section 1776, the CONTRACTOR shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects the CONTRACTOR must comply. Should non-compliance still be evident after the ten (10) day period, the CONTRACTOR shall, as a penalty to the OWNER forfeit twenty-five dollars ($25.00) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker until strict compliance is effectuated.
Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due.
13. Attention is directed to the provisions in Sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 of the Labor Code concerning the employment of apprentices by the CONTRACTOR or any SUBCONTRACTOR under him. It is the CONTRACTOR’S responsibility to ensure compliance by both itself and all SUBCONTRACTORS.
Section 1777.5 provides, in part, as follows:
The CONTRACTOR or SUBCONTRACTOR, if he is covered by this section, upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or if he has been previously approved in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeyman stipulated in the apprenticeship standards. Upon proper showing by the CONTRACTOR that he employs apprentices in the craft or trade in the State on all of his/her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman, or in the land surveyor classification, one apprentice for each five journeyman, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certification exempting the CONTRACTOR from the one (1) to five (5) hourly ratio as set forth in this section. This section shall not apply to contracts of general CONTRACTORS or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime CONTRACTOR, when the contracts of general CONTRACTORS, or those specialty CONTRACTORS involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or forty (40) hours per week shall not be used to calculate the hourly ratio required by this section.
Apprenticeable craft or trade, as used in this section, shall mean a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Apprenticeship Council. The joint apprenticeship committee shall have the discretion to grant a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting a CONTRACTOR from the 1 to 5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(a) In the event unemployment for the previous three month period in such area exceeds an average of 15 percent, or
(b) In the event the number of apprentices in training in such area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5, or
(c) If there is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least onethirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either (1) on a statewide basis, or (2) on a local basis, or
(d) If assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition which should jeopardize his life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees, or the public at large or if the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
When such exemptions are granted to an organization which represents CONTRACTORS in a specific trade from the 1 to 5 ratio on a local or statewide basis the member CONTRACTORS will not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, provided they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
The CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if he employs registered apprentices or journeymen in apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other CONTRACTORS on the public work site are making such contributions. The CONTRACTOR, and any SUBCONTRACTOR under him, shall comply with the requirements of Sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 of the Labor Code in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to number of apprentices, identifications, wages, hours of employment and standards of working conditions shall be obtained from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards. Consult the white pages of your telephone directory under California, State of, Industrial Relations, Apprenticeship Standards, for the telephone number and address of the nearest office. Willful failure by the CONTRACTOR to comply with the provisions of Sections 1777.5 will subject the CONTRACTOR to the penalties set forth in Section 1777.7 of the Labor Code.
14. Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1813, eight hours in any one calendar day and forty (40) hours in any calendar week shall be the maximum hours any workman is required or permitted to work, except in cases of extraordinary emergency caused by fires, flood, or danger to life and property. The CONTRACTOR doing the work, or his duly authorized agent, shall file with OWNER a report, verified by his oath, setting forth the nature of the said emergency, which report shall contain the name of said worker and the hours worked by him on the said day, and the CONTRACTOR and each SUBCONTRACTOR shall also keep an accurate record showing the names and actual hours worked of all workers employed by him in connection with the work contemplated by this Agreement, which record shall be open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the OWNER, or its officer or agents and to the Chief of all Division of Labor Statistics and Law Enforcement of the Department of Industrial Relations, his deputies or agents; and it is hereby further agreed that said CONTRACTOR shall forfeit as a penalty to the OWNER the sum of Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) for each laborer, workman or any SUBCONTRACTOR under him for each calendar day during which such laborer, workman or mechanic is required or permitted to labor more than eight (8) hours in violation of this stipulation.
Overtime and shift work may be established as a regular procedure by the CONTRACTOR with reasonable notice and written permission of the OWNER. No work other than overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure shall be performed between the hours of 6:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. nor on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays except such work as is necessary for the proper care and protection of the work already performed or in case of an emergency.
CONTRACTOR agrees to pay the costs of overtime inspection except those occurring as a result of overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure. Overtime inspection shall include inspection required during holidays, Saturdays, Sundays and weekdays.
Costs of overtime inspection will cover engineering, inspection, general supervision and overhead expenses which are directly chargeable to the overtime work. CONTRACTOR agrees that OWNER shall deduct such charges from payments due the CONTRACTOR.
15. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Division 2, Chapter 4, Part 1 of the Public Contract Code relating to subletting and subcontracting, specifically included but not limited to Sections 4104, 4106, and 4110, which by this reference are incorporated into this Agreement as though fully set forth herein.
16. The CONTRACTOR and the OWNER agree that changes in this Agreement or in the work to be done under this Agreement shall become effective only when written in the form of a supplemental agreement or change order and approved and signed by the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. It is specifically agreed that the OWNER shall have the right to request any alterations, deviations, reductions or additions to the contract or the plans and specifications or any of them, and the amount of the cost thereof shall be added to or deducted from the amount of the contract price aforesaid by fair and reasonable valuations thereof.
This contract shall be held to be completed when the work is finished in accordance with the original plans and specifications as amended by such changes. No such change or modification shall release or exonerate any surety upon any guaranty or bond given in connection with this contract.
17. Contractor shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, and cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor's negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder, or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, except such loss or damage caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of the City. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Contractor, or should City otherwise find Contractor’s legal counsel unacceptable, then Contractor shall reimburse the City its costs of defense, including without limitation, reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees, and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Contractor shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of the Contractor’s negligent, reckless, or wrongful performance. 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.
Contractor 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’s 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.
Contractor agrees to obtain or cause to be obtained executed defense and indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this Section from each and every Subcontractor and Subconsultant, of every Tier. In the event the Contractor fails to do so, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible to provide such defense and indemnification according to the terms of this Section.
18. Contractor must comply with the insurance requirements as described in the section “INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR”, pages 42-43 of the Contract Documents.
19. Amendments- Any changes to this Agreement requested by either City or St Francis Electric, LLC. may only be effected if mutually agreed upon in writing by duly authorized representatives of the parties hereto.

2. A failure by St Francis Electric, LLC. to comply with any material term of this Agreement;
3. A substantially incorrect or incomplete report submitted by St Francis Electric, LLC. to City.
In no event shall any payment by City or acceptance by St Francis Electric, LLC. constitute a waiver by such party of any breach of this Agreement or any default which may then exist on the part of either party. Neither shall such payment impair or prejudice any remedy available to either party with respect to such breach or default. City shall have the right to demand of St Francis Electric, LLC. the repayment to City of any funds disbursed St Francis Electric, LLC. under this Agreement which, as determined by the appropriate court or arbitrator, were not expended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

21. Compliance With Laws- City shall comply with all Federal, State and local laws, ordinances, regulations and provisions applicable in the performance of City’s services.

The venue for any claim being brought for breach of this Agreement shall be in Madera County or as appropriate in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, located in the City of Fresno.
23. Governing Law- The laws of the State of California shall govern the rights and obligations of the parties under the Agreement, including the interpretation of the Agreement. If any part of the Agreement is adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity shall not affect the full force and effect of the remainder of the Agreement.
24. City’s Authority- Each individual executing or attesting to this Agreement on behalf of the City hereby covenants and represents: (i) that he or she is duly authorized to execute or attest and deliver this Agreement on behalf of such corporation in accordance with a duly adopted resolution of the corporation’s articles of incorporation or charter and bylaws; (ii) that this Agreement is binding upon such corporation; and (iii) that Contractor is a duly organized and legally existing municipal corporation in good standing in the State of California.

26. Remedies for Default. Failure by a party to perform any term, condition or covenant required of the party under this Agreement shall constitute a “default” of the offending party under this Agreement. In the event that a default remains uncured for more than ten (10) days following receipt of written notice of default from the other party, a "breach" shall be deemed to have occurred. Any failure or delay by a party in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any default shall not operate as a waiver of any default or of any rights or remedies associated with a default.
27. Independent Contractor. In performance of the work, duties, and obligations assumed by the Contractor under this Agreement, it is mutually understood and agreed that the City, including any and all of City’s officers, agents and employees will, at all times, be acting and performing as an independent contractor, and shall act in an independent capacity and not as an officer, agent, servant, employee, joint venturer, partner, or associate of City.
Furthermore, City shall have no right to control or supervise or direct the manner or method by which City shall perform its work and functions. The City shall comply with all applicable provisions of law and the rules and regulations, if any, of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof.
Because of its status as an independent contractor, City shall have absolutely no right to employment rights and benefits available to City employees. City shall be solely liable and responsible for providing to, or on behalf of, its employees all legally required employee benefits. In addition, City shall be solely responsible and hold City harmless from all matters relating to payment of City’s employees, including compliance with Social Security, withholding and all other regulations governing such matters. It is acknowledged that during the term of this Agreement, City may be providing services to others unrelated to City or to this Agreement.
28.Sole Agreement- This instrument constitutes the sole and only Agreement between City and St Francis Electric, LLC. in connection to the Project and correctly sets forth the obligations of the City and St Francis Electric, LLC. to each other as of its date. Any Agreements or representations in connection with the Project, not expressly set forth in this instrument are null and void.

================================================================ Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.
Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.
Note: Executive Order 13658 generally applies to contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act that were awarded on or between January 1, 2015 and January 29, 2022, and that have not been renewed or extended on or after January 30, 2022. Executive Order 13658 does not apply to contracts subject only to the Davis-Bacon Related Acts regardless of when they were awarded.
If a contract is subject to Executive Order 13658, the
contractor must pay all covered workers at least $13.30 per hour (or the applicable wage rate listed on this wage
determination, if it is higher) for all hours spent performing on the contract in 2025. The applicable Executive Order minimum wage rate will be adjusted annually. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under Executive Order 13658 is available at
www.dol.gov/whd/govcontracts.
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii)).
---------------------------------------------------------------- The body of each wage determination lists the classifications and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the type(s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate), a survey rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a supplemental classification rate.
Union Rate Identifiers
A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than ""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:
PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024. PLUM is an identifier of the union whose collectively bargained rate prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2024 in the example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate.
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes over time that are reported to WHD in the rates
in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the classification.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE:
UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of Ohio.
The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024 in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was updated to reflect the most current union average rate.
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January, to reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the
collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based.
Survey Rate Identifiers
The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this
classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-007 6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union
prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the year of the survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier. ?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6(c)(1).
State Adopted Rate Identifiers
The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g)-(h). Example: SAME2023-007 01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted. ME refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the state completed the survey on which the listed classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination.
The date, 01/03/2024 in the example, reflects the date on which the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took effect under state law in the state from which the rates were adopted.
-----------------------------------------------------------

The following provision is adopted from 23 CFR Part 230, Subpart A, Appendix A, with appropriate revisions to conform to the U.S. Department of Labor (US DOL) and FHWA
requirements.
Attachment B FHWA 1273
2 1. Equal Employment Opportunity: Equal Employment
Opportunity (EEO) requirements not to discriminate and to take affirmative action to assure equal opportunity as set forth under laws, executive orders, rules, regulations (see 28 CFR Part 35, 29 CFR Part 1630, 29 CFR Parts 1625-1627, 41 CFR Part 60 and 49 CFR Part 27) and orders of the Secretary of Labor as modified by the provisions prescribed herein, and imposed pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 140, shall constitute the EEO and specific affirmative action standards for the contractor's project activities under this contract. The provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (42 U.S.C. 12101 et seq.) set forth under 28 CFR Part 35 and 29 CFR Part 1630 are incorporated by reference in this contract. In the execution of this contract, the contractor agrees to comply with the following minimum specific requirement activities of EEO:
a. The contractor will work with the contracting agency and the Federal Government to ensure that it has made every good faith effort to provide equal opportunity with respect to all of its terms and conditions of employment and in their review of activities under the contract. 23 CFR 230.409 (g)(4) & (5). b. The contractor will accept as its operating policy the following statement:
"It is the policy of this Company to assure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during
employment, without regard to their race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, color, national origin, age or disability. Such action shall include: employment,
upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including
apprenticeship, pre-apprenticeship, and/or on-the-job
training."
2. EEO Officer: The contractor will designate and make
known to the contracting officers an EEO Officer who will have the responsibility for and must be capable of effectively administering and promoting an active EEO program and who must be assigned adequate authority and responsibility to do so.
3. Dissemination of Policy: All members of the contractor's staff who are authorized to hire, supervise, promote, and discharge employees, or who recommend such action or are substantially involved in such action, will be made fully cognizant of and will implement the contractor's EEO policy and contractual responsibilities to provide EEO in each grade and classification of employment. To ensure that the above agreement will be met, the following actions will be taken as a minimum:
a. Periodic meetings of supervisory and personnel office employees will be conducted before the start of work and then not less often than once every six months, at which time the contractor's EEO policy and its implementation will be
reviewed and explained. The meetings will be conducted by the EEO Officer or other knowledgeable company official.
b. All new supervisory or personnel office employees will be given a thorough indoctrination by the EEO Officer, covering all major aspects of the contractor's EEO obligations within thirty days following their reporting for duty with the contractor. c. All personnel who are engaged in direct recruitment for the project will be instructed by the EEO Officer in the contractor's procedures for locating and hiring minorities and women.
d. Notices and posters setting forth the contractor's EEO policy will be placed in areas readily accessible to employees, applicants for employment and potential employees.
e. The contractor's EEO policy and the procedures to
implement such policy will be brought to the attention of employees by means of meetings, employee handbooks, or
other appropriate means.
4. Recruitment: When advertising for employees, the
contractor will include in all advertisements for employees the notation: "An Equal Opportunity Employer." All such
advertisements will be placed in publications having a large circulation among minorities and women in the area from which the project work force would normally be derived. a. The contractor will, unless precluded by a valid
bargaining agreement, conduct systematic and direct
recruitment through public and private employee referral sources likely to yield qualified minorities and women. To meet this requirement, the contractor will identify sources of potential minority group employees and establish with such identified sources procedures whereby minority and women applicants may be referred to the contractor for employment consideration.
b. In the event the contractor has a valid bargaining
agreement providing for exclusive hiring hall referrals, the contractor is expected to observe the provisions of that agreement to the extent that the system meets the contractor's compliance with EEO contract provisions. Where
implementation of such an agreement has the effect of
discriminating against minorities or women, or obligates the contractor to do the same, such implementation violates Federal nondiscrimination provisions.
c. The contractor will encourage its present employees to refer minorities and women as applicants for employment.
Information and procedures with regard to referring such applicants will be discussed with employees.
5. Personnel Actions: Wages, working conditions, and
employee benefits shall be established and administered, and personnel actions of every type, including hiring, upgrading, promotion, transfer, demotion, layoff, and termination, shall be taken without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age or disability.
The following procedures shall be followed:
a. The contractor will conduct periodic inspections of project sites to ensure that working conditions and employee facilities do not indicate discriminatory treatment of project site personnel.
b. The contractor will periodically evaluate the spread of wages paid within each classification to determine any
evidence of discriminatory wage practices.
c. The contractor will periodically review selected personnel actions in depth to determine whether there is evidence of discrimination. Where evidence is found, the contractor will promptly take corrective action. If the review indicates that the discrimination may extend beyond the actions reviewed, such corrective action shall include all affected persons.
d. The contractor will promptly investigate all complaints of alleged discrimination made to the contractor in connection with its obligations under this contract, will attempt to resolve such complaints, and will take appropriate corrective action 3 within a reasonable time. If the investigation indicates that the discrimination may affect persons other than the complainant, such corrective action shall include such other persons. Upon completion of each investigation, the contractor will inform every complainant of all of their avenues of appeal.
6. Training and Promotion:
a. The contractor will assist in locating, qualifying, and increasing the skills of minorities and women who are
applicants for employment or current employees. Such efforts should be aimed at developing full journey level status employees in the type of trade or job classification involved. b. Consistent with the contractor's work force requirements and as permissible under Federal and State regulations, the contractor shall make full use of training programs (i.e., apprenticeship and on-the-job training programs for the geographical area of contract performance). In the event a special provision for training is provided under this contract, this subparagraph will be superseded as indicated in the special provision. The contracting agency may reserve
training positions for persons who receive welfare assistance in accordance with 23 U.S.C. 140(a).
c. The contractor will advise employees and applicants for employment of available training programs and entrance
requirements for each.
d. The contractor will periodically review the training and promotion potential of employees who are minorities and women and will encourage eligible employees to apply for such training and promotion.
7. Unions: If the contractor relies in whole or in part upon unions as a source of employees, the contractor will use good faith efforts to obtain the cooperation of such unions to increase opportunities for minorities and women. 23 CFR 230.409. Actions by the contractor, either directly or through a contractor's association acting as agent, will include the procedures set forth below:
a. The contractor will use good faith efforts to develop, in cooperation with the unions, joint training programs aimed toward qualifying more minorities and women for membership in the unions and increasing the skills of minorities and women so that they may qualify for higher paying employment.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to incorporate an EEO clause into each union agreement to the end that such union will be contractually bound to refer applicants without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability.
c. The contractor is to obtain information as to the referral practices and policies of the labor union except that to the extent such information is within the exclusive possession of the labor union and such labor union refuses to furnish such information to the contractor, the contractor shall so certify to the contracting agency and shall set forth what efforts have been made to obtain such information.
d. In the event the union is unable to provide the contractor with a reasonable flow of referrals within the time limit set forth in the collective bargaining agreement, the contractor will, through independent recruitment efforts, fill the employment vacancies without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability; making full efforts to obtain qualified and/or qualifiable minorities and women. The failure of a union to provide sufficient referrals (even though it is obligated to provide exclusive referrals under the terms of a collective bargaining agreement) does not relieve the contractor from the
requirements of this paragraph. In the event the union referral practice prevents the contractor from meeting the obligations pursuant to Executive Order 11246, as amended, and these special provisions, such contractor shall immediately notify the contracting agency.
8. Reasonable Accommodation for Applicants /
Employees with Disabilities: The contractor must be familiar with the requirements for and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and all rules and regulations established thereunder. Employers must provide reasonable
accommodation in all employment activities unless to do so would cause an undue hardship.
9. Selection of Subcontractors, Procurement of Materials and Leasing of Equipment: The contractor shall not
discriminate on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, or disability in the selection and retention of subcontractors, including procurement of materials and leases of equipment. The
contractor shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure nondiscrimination in the administration of this contract. a. The contractor shall notify all potential subcontractors, suppliers, and lessors of their EEO obligations under this contract.
b. The contractor will use good faith efforts to ensure subcontractor compliance with their EEO obligations.
10. Assurances Required:
a. The requirements of 49 CFR Part 26 and the State
DOT’s FHWA-approved Disadvantaged Business Enterprise
(DBE) program are incorporated by reference.
b. The contractor, subrecipient or subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the performance of this contract. The contractor shall carry out applicable requirements of 49 CFR part 26 in the award and administration of DOT-assisted contracts. Failure by the contractor to carry out these requirements is a material breach of this contract, which may result in the termination of this contract or such other remedy as the recipient deems
appropriate, which may include, but is not limited to:
(1) Withholding monthly progress payments;
(2) Assessing sanctions;
(3) Liquidated damages; and/or
(4) Disqualifying the contractor from future bidding as nonresponsible. c. The Title VI and nondiscrimination provisions of U.S.
DOT Order 1050.2A at Appendixes A and E are incorporated by reference. 49 CFR Part 21.
11. Records and Reports: The contractor shall keep such records as necessary to document compliance with the EEO requirements. Such records shall be retained for a period of three years following the date of the final payment to the contractor for all contract work and shall be available at reasonable times and places for inspection by authorized representatives of the contracting agency and the FHWA. a. The records kept by the contractor shall document the following:
4 (1) The number and work hours of minority and nonminority group members and women employed in each work classification on the project;
(2) The progress and efforts being made in cooperation
with unions, when applicable, to increase employment
opportunities for minorities and women; and
(3) The progress and efforts being made in locating, hiring, training, qualifying, and upgrading minorities and women. b. The contractors and subcontractors will submit an annual report to the contracting agency each July for the duration of the project indicating the number of minority, women, and nonminority group employees currently engaged in each work classification required by the contract work. This information is to be reported on Form FHWA-1391. The staffing data should represent the project work force on board in all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July. If on-the-job training is being required by special provision, the contractor will be required to collect and report training data. The employment data should reflect the work force on board during all or any part of the last payroll period preceding the end of July.
III. NONSEGREGATED FACILITIES
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts and to all related construction subcontracts of more than $10,000. 41 CFR 60-1.5.
As prescribed by 41 CFR 60-1.8, the contractor must ensure that facilities provided for employees are provided in such a manner that segregation on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin cannot result. The contractor may neither require such
segregated use by written or oral policies nor tolerate such use by employee custom. The contractor's obligation extends further to ensure that its employees are not assigned to perform their services at any location under the contractor's control where the facilities are segregated. The term "facilities" includes waiting rooms, work areas, restaurants and other eating areas, time clocks, restrooms, washrooms, locker rooms and other storage or dressing areas, parking lots, drinking fountains, recreation or entertainment areas,
transportation, and housing provided for employees. The contractor shall provide separate or single-user restrooms and necessary dressing or sleeping areas to assure privacy
between sexes.
IV. DAVIS-BACON AND RELATED ACT PROVISIONS
This section is applicable to all Federal-aid construction projects exceeding $2,000 and to all related subcontracts and lower-tier subcontracts (regardless of subcontract size), in accordance with 29 CFR 5.5. The requirements apply to all projects located within the right-of-way of a roadway that is functionally classified as Federal-aid highway. 23 U.S.C. 113.
This excludes roadways functionally classified as local roads or rural minor collectors, which are exempt. 23 U.S.C. 101.
Where applicable law requires that projects be treated as a project on a Federal-aid highway, the provisions of this subpart will apply regardless of the location of the project. Examples include: Surface Transportation Block Grant Program projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 133 [excluding recreational trails projects], the Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 117, and National Highway Freight Program projects funded under 23 U.S.C. 167.
The following provisions are from the U.S. Department of Labor regulations in 29 CFR 5.5 “Contract provisions and related matters” with minor revisions to conform to the FHWA1273 format and FHWA program requirements.
1. Minimum wages (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Wage rates and fringe benefits. All laborers and
mechanics employed or working upon the site of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project under a development statute), will be paid
unconditionally and not less often than once a week, and without subsequent deduction or rebate on any account
(except such payroll deductions as are permitted by
regulations issued by the Secretary of Labor under the
Copeland Act (29 CFR part 3)), the full amount of basic hourly wages and bona fide fringe benefits (or cash equivalents thereof) due at time of payment computed at rates not less than those contained in the wage determination of the
Secretary of Labor which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, regardless of any contractual relationship which may be alleged to exist between the contractor and such laborers and mechanics. As provided in paragraphs (d) and (e) of 29 CFR 5.5, the appropriate wage determinations are effective by operation of law even if they have not been attached to the contract. Contributions made or costs reasonably anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits under the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B)) on behalf of laborers or mechanics are considered wages paid to such laborers or mechanics, subject to the provisions of paragraph 1.e. of this section; also, regular contributions made or costs incurred for more than a weekly period (but not less often than quarterly) under plans, funds, or programs which cover the particular weekly period, are
deemed to be constructively made or incurred during such weekly period. Such laborers and mechanics must be paid the appropriate wage rate and fringe benefits on the wage
determination for the classification(s) of work actually performed, without regard to skill, except as provided in paragraph 4. of this section. Laborers or mechanics performing work in more than one classification may be compensated at the rate specified for each classification for the time actually worked therein: Provided, That the employer's payroll records accurately set forth the time spent in each classification in which work is performed. The wage determination (including any additional classifications and wage rates conformed under paragraph 1.c. of this section) and the Davis-Bacon poster (WH–1321) must be posted at all times by the contractor and its subcontractors at the site of the work in a prominent and accessible place where it can be easily seen by the workers. b. Frequently recurring classifications. (1) In addition to wage and fringe benefit rates that have been determined to be prevailing under the procedures set forth in 29 CFR part 1, a wage determination may contain, pursuant to § 1.3(f), wage and fringe benefit rates for classifications of laborers and mechanics for which conformance requests are regularly
submitted pursuant to paragraph 1.c. of this section, provided that:
(i) The work performed by the classification is not
performed by a classification in the wage determination for which a prevailing wage rate has been determined;
5 (ii) The classification is used in the area by the
construction industry; and
(iii) The wage rate for the classification bears a reasonable relationship to the prevailing wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(2) The Administrator will establish wage rates for such classifications in accordance with paragraph 1.c.(1)(iii) of this section. Work performed in such a classification must be paid at no less than the wage and fringe benefit rate listed on the wage determination for such classification.
c. Conformance. (1) The contracting officer must require that any class of laborers or mechanics, including helpers, which is not listed in the wage determination and which is to be employed under the contract be classified in conformance with the wage determination. Conformance of an additional
classification and wage rate and fringe benefits is appropriate only when the following criteria have been met:
(i) The work to be performed by the classification
requested is not performed by a classification in the wage determination; and
(ii) The classification is used in the area by the
construction industry; and
(iii) The proposed wage rate, including any bona fide fringe benefits, bears a reasonable relationship to the wage rates contained in the wage determination.
(2) The conformance process may not be used to split,
subdivide, or otherwise avoid application of classifications listed in the wage determination.
(3) If the contractor and the laborers and mechanics to be employed in the classification (if known), or their
representatives, and the contracting officer agree on the classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits where appropriate), a report of the action taken will be sent by the contracting officer by email to [email protected]. The Administrator, or an
authorized representative, will approve, modify, or disapprove every additional classification action within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30–day period that additional time is necessary.
(4) In the event the contractor, the laborers or mechanics to be employed in the classification or their representatives, and the contracting officer do not agree on the proposed
classification and wage rate (including the amount designated for fringe benefits, where appropriate), the contracting officer will, by email to [email protected], refer the
questions, including the views of all interested parties and the recommendation of the contracting officer, to the Administrator for determination. The Administrator, or an authorized
representative, will issue a determination within 30 days of receipt and so advise the contracting officer or will notify the contracting officer within the 30–day period that additional time is necessary.
(5) The contracting officer must promptly notify the
contractor of the action taken by the Wage and Hour Division under paragraphs 1.c.(3) and (4) of this section. The contractor must furnish a written copy of such determination to each affected worker or it must be posted as a part of the wage determination. The wage rate (including fringe benefits where appropriate) determined pursuant to paragraph 1.c.(3) or (4) of this section must be paid to all workers performing work in the classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the classification.
d. Fringe benefits not expressed as an hourly rate.
Whenever the minimum wage rate prescribed in the contract for a class of laborers or mechanics includes a fringe benefit which is not expressed as an hourly rate, the contractor may either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or may pay another bona fide fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
e. Unfunded plans. If the contractor does not make
payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided, That the Secretary of Labor has found, upon the written request of the contractor, in accordance with the criteria set forth in § 5.28, that the applicable standards of the Davis-Bacon Act have been met. The Secretary of Labor may require the
contractor to set aside in a separate account assets for the meeting of obligations under the plan or program.
f. Interest. In the event of a failure to pay all or part of the wages required by the contract, the contractor will be required to pay interest on any underpayment of wages.
2. Withholding (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Withholding requirements. The contracting agency may, upon its own action, or must, upon written request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be considered
necessary to satisfy the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for the full amount of wages and monetary relief, including interest, required by the clauses set forth in this section for violations of this contract, or to satisfy any such liabilities required by any other Federal contract, or federally assisted contract subject to Davis-Bacon labor standards, that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from the contractor under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract that is subject to Davis-Bacon labor standards requirements and is held by the same prime contractor, regardless of whether the other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy the contractor liability for which the funds were withheld. In the event of a
contractor's failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice or helper working on the site of the work all or part of the wages required by the contract, or upon the contractor's failure to submit the required records as discussed in paragraph 3.d. of this section, the contracting agency may on its own initiative and after written notice to the contractor, take such action as may be necessary to cause the
suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds until such violations have ceased.
b. Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with paragraph 6 2.a. of this section or Section V, paragraph 3.a., or both, over claims to those funds by:
(1) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(2) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(3) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(4) A contractor's assignee(s);
(5) A contractor's successor(s); or
(6) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31
U.S.C. 3901–3907.
3. Records and certified payrolls (29 CFR 5.5)
a. Basic record requirements (1) Length of record retention.
All regular payrolls and other basic records must be
maintained by the contractor and any subcontractor during the course of the work and preserved for all laborers and
mechanics working at the site of the work (or otherwise working in construction or development of the project under a development statute) for a period of at least 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
(2) Information required. Such records must contain the name; Social Security number; last known address, telephone number, and email address of each such worker; each
worker's correct classification(s) of work actually performed; hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of the types described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act); daily and weekly number of hours actually worked in total and on each covered contract; deductions made; and actual wages paid.
(3) Additional records relating to fringe benefits. Whenever the Secretary of Labor has found under paragraph 1.e. of this section that the wages of any laborer or mechanic include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or program described in 40 U.S.C. 3141(2)(B) of the Davis-Bacon Act, the contractor must
maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable, that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits.
(4) Additional records relating to apprenticeship. Contractors with apprentices working under approved programs must
maintain written evidence of the registration of apprenticeship programs, the registration of the apprentices, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the applicable programs.
b. Certified payroll requirements (1) Frequency and method of submission. The contractor or subcontractor must submit weekly, for each week in which any DBA- or Related Actscovered work is performed, certified payrolls to the contracting agency. The prime contractor is responsible for the submission of all certified payrolls by all subcontractors. A contracting agency or prime contractor may permit or require contractors to submit certified payrolls through an electronic system, as long as the electronic system requires a legally valid electronic signature; the system allows the contractor, the contracting agency, and the Department of Labor to access the certified payrolls upon request for at least 3 years after the work on the prime contract has been completed; and the contracting
agency or prime contractor permits other methods of
submission in situations where the contractor is unable or limited in its ability to use or access the electronic system. (2) Information required. The certified payrolls submitted must set out accurately and completely all of the information required to be maintained under paragraph 3.a.(2) of this section, except that full Social Security numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses must not be included on weekly transmittals. Instead, the certified payrolls need only include an individually identifying number for each worker ( e.g., the last four digits of the worker's Social Security number). The required weekly
certified payroll information may be submitted using Optional Form WH–347 or in any other format desired. Optional Form WH–347 is available for this purpose from the Wage and Hour Division website at https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/WHD/ legacy/files/wh347/.pdf or its successor website. It is not a violation of this section for a prime contractor to require a subcontractor to provide full Social Security numbers and last known addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses to the prime contractor for its own records, without weekly submission by the subcontractor to the contracting agency. (3) Statement of Compliance. Each certified payroll
submitted must be accompanied by a “Statement of
Compliance,” signed by the contractor or subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent who pays or supervises the payment of the persons working on the contract, and must certify the following:
(i) That the certified payroll for the payroll period contains the information required to be provided under paragraph 3.b. of this section, the appropriate information and basic records are being maintained under paragraph 3.a. of this section, and such information and records are correct and complete; (ii) That each laborer or mechanic (including each helper and apprentice) working on the contract during the payroll period has been paid the full weekly wages earned, without rebate, either directly or indirectly, and that no deductions have been made either directly or indirectly from the full wages earned, other than permissible deductions as set
forth in 29 CFR part 3; and
(iii) That each laborer or mechanic has been paid not less than the applicable wage rates and fringe benefits or cash equivalents for the classification(s) of work actually
performed, as specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.
(4) Use of Optional Form WH–347. The weekly submission
of a properly executed certification set forth on the reverse side of Optional Form WH–347 will satisfy the requirement for submission of the “Statement of Compliance” required by paragraph 3.b.(3) of this section.
7 (5) Signature. The signature by the contractor,
subcontractor, or the contractor's or subcontractor's agent must be an original handwritten signature or a legally valid electronic signature.
(6) Falsification. The falsification of any of the above certifications may subject the contractor or subcontractor to civil or criminal prosecution under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 31 U.S.C. 3729.
(7) Length of certified payroll retention. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve all certified payrolls during the course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
c. Contracts, subcontracts, and related documents. The
contractor or subcontractor must maintain this contract or subcontract and related documents including, without
limitation, bids, proposals, amendments, modifications, and extensions. The contractor or subcontractor must preserve these contracts, subcontracts, and related documents during the course of the work and for a period of 3 years after all the work on the prime contract is completed.
d. Required disclosures and access (1) Required record
disclosures and access to workers. The contractor or
subcontractor must make the records required under
paragraphs 3.a. through 3.c. of this section, and any other documents that the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, or the Department of Labor deems necessary to
determine compliance with the labor standards provisions of any of the applicable statutes referenced by § 5.1, available for inspection, copying, or transcription by authorized
representatives of the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, or the Department of Labor, and must permit such
representatives to interview workers during working hours on the job.
(2) Sanctions for non-compliance with records and worker access requirements. If the contractor or subcontractor fails to submit the required records or to make them available, or refuses to permit worker interviews during working hours on the job, the Federal agency may, after written notice to the contractor, sponsor, applicant, owner, or other entity, as the case may be, that maintains such records or that employs such workers, take such action as may be necessary to cause the suspension of any further payment, advance, or guarantee of funds. Furthermore, failure to submit the required records upon request or to make such records available, or to permit worker interviews during working hours on the job, may be grounds for debarment action pursuant to § 5.12. In addition, any contractor or other person that fails to submit the required records or make those records available to WHD within the time WHD requests that the records be produced will be
precluded from introducing as evidence in an administrative proceeding under 29 CFR part 6 any of the required records that were not provided or made available to WHD. WHD will take into consideration a reasonable request from the
contractor or person for an extension of the time for
submission of records. WHD will determine the
reasonableness of the request and may consider, among other things, the location of the records and the volume of
production.
(3) Required information disclosures. Contractors and
subcontractors must maintain the full Social Security number and last known address, telephone number, and email address of each covered worker, and must provide them upon request to the contracting agency, the State DOT, the FHWA, the contractor, or the Wage and Hour Division of the Department of Labor for purposes of an investigation or other compliance action.
4. Apprentices and equal employment opportunity (29 CFR
5.5)
a. Apprentices (1) Rate of pay. Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate for the work they perform when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration, Office of Apprenticeship (OA), or with a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the OA. A person who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the OA or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice, will be permitted to work at less than the
predetermined rate for the work they perform in the first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such a program. In the event the OA or a State Apprenticeship
Agency recognized by the OA withdraws approval of an
apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to use apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is approved.
(2) Fringe benefits. Apprentices must be paid fringe benefits in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the Administrator determines that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringe benefits must be paid in accordance with that
determination.
(3) Apprenticeship ratio. The allowable ratio of apprentices to journeyworkers on the job site in any craft classification must not be greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the registered program or the ratio applicable to the locality of the project pursuant to paragraph
4.a.(4) of this section. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not registered or otherwise employed as stated in paragraph 4.a.(1) of this section, must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed.
In addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted under this section must be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage
determination for the work actually performed.
(4) Reciprocity of ratios and wage rates. Where a contractor is performing construction on a project in a locality other than the locality in which its program is registered, the ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyworker's hourly rate) applicable within the locality in which the construction is being performed must be observed. If there is no applicable ratio or wage rate for the locality of the project, the ratio and wage rate specified in the contractor's registered program must be observed.
b. Equal employment opportunity. The use of apprentices and journeyworkers under this part must be in conformity with 8 the equal employment opportunity requirements of Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
c. Apprentices and Trainees (programs of the U.S. DOT).
Apprentices and trainees working under apprenticeship and skill training programs which have been certified by the Secretary of Transportation as promoting EEO in connection with Federal-aid highway construction programs are not
subject to the requirements of paragraph 4 of this Section IV. 23 CFR 230.111(e)(2). The straight time hourly wage rates for apprentices and trainees under such programs will be
established by the particular programs. The ratio of
apprentices and trainees to journeyworkers shall not be greater than permitted by the terms of the particular program.
5. Compliance with Copeland Act requirements. The
contractor shall comply with the requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract as provided in 29 CFR 5.5.
6. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert FHWA-1273 in any subcontracts, along with the applicable wage determination(s) and such other clauses or contract modifications as the contracting agency may by appropriate instructions require, and a clause requiring the subcontractors to include these clauses and wage determination(s) in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor is responsible for the compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier
subcontractor with all the contract clauses in this section. In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any subcontractor(s) responsible will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of the underpayment or loss, due to any workers of lower-tier subcontractors, and may be subject to debarment, as appropriate. 29 CFR 5.5.
7. Contract termination: debarment. A breach of the
contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
8. Compliance with Davis-Bacon and Related Act
requirements. All rulings and interpretations of the DavisBacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5 are herein incorporated by reference in this contract as provided in 29 CFR 5.5.
9. Disputes concerning labor standards. As provided in 29 CFR 5.5, disputes arising out of the labor standards provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract. Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their
representatives.
10. Certification of eligibility. a. By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it nor any person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be awarded Government contracts by virtue of 40 U.S.C. 3144(b) or § 5.12(a).
b. No part of this contract shall be subcontracted to any person or firm ineligible for award of a Government contract by virtue of 40 U.S.C. 3144(b) or § 5.12(a).
c. The penalty for making false statements is prescribed in the U.S. Code, Title 18 Crimes and Criminal Procedure, 18 U.S.C. 1001.
11. Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
a. Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
b. Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3;
c. Cooperating in any investigation or other compliance action, or testifying in any proceeding under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3; or
d. Informing any other person about their rights under the DBA, Related Acts, this part, or 29 CFR part 1 or 3.
V. CONTRACT WORK HOURS AND SAFETY STANDARDS
ACT
Pursuant to 29 CFR 5.5(b), the following clauses apply to any Federal-aid construction contract in an amount in excess of $100,000 and subject to the overtime provisions of the
Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act. These
clauses shall be inserted in addition to the clauses required by 29 CFR 5.5(a) or 29 CFR 4.6. As used in this paragraph, the terms laborers and mechanics include watchpersons and
guards.
1. Overtime requirements. No contractor or subcontractor contracting for any part of the contract work which may require or involve the employment of laborers or mechanics shall require or permit any such laborer or mechanic in any
workweek in which he or she is employed on such work to work in excess of forty hours in such workweek unless such laborer or mechanic receives compensation at a rate not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of forty hours in such workweek. 29 CFR
5.5. 2. Violation; liability for unpaid wages; liquidated damages. In the event of any violation of the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section the contractor and any
subcontractor responsible therefor shall be liable for the unpaid wages and interest from the date of the underpayment.
In addition, such contractor and subcontractor shall be liable to the United States (in the case of work done under contract for the District of Columbia or a territory, to such District or to such territory), for liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be computed with respect to each individual laborer or 9 mechanic, including watchpersons and guards, employed in violation of the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section, in the sum currently provided in 29 CFR 5.5(b)(2)* for each calendar day on which such individual was required or
permitted to work in excess of the standard workweek of forty hours without payment of the overtime wages required by the clause set forth in paragraph 1. of this section.
* $31 as of January 15, 2023 (See 88 FR 88 FR 2210) as may be adjusted annually by the Department of Labor, pursuant to the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990.
3. Withholding for unpaid wages and liquidated damages
a. Withholding process. The FHWA or the contracting
agency may, upon its own action, or must, upon written
request of an authorized representative of the Department of Labor, withhold or cause to be withheld from the contractor so much of the accrued payments or advances as may be
considered necessary to satisfy the liabilities of the prime contractor or any subcontractor for any unpaid wages;
monetary relief, including interest; and liquidated damages required by the clauses set forth in this section on this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act that is held by the same prime contractor (as defined in § 5.2). The necessary funds may be withheld from the contractor under this contract, any other Federal contract with the same prime contractor, or any other federally assisted contract that is subject to the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act and is held by the same prime contractor, regardless of whether the other contract was awarded or assisted by the same agency, and such funds may be used to satisfy the
contractor liability for which the funds were withheld. b. Priority to withheld funds. The Department has priority to funds withheld or to be withheld in accordance with Section IV paragraph 2.a. or paragraph 3.a. of this section, or both, over claims to those funds by:
(1) A contractor's surety(ies), including without limitation performance bond sureties and payment bond sureties;
(2) A contracting agency for its reprocurement costs;
(3) A trustee(s) (either a court-appointed trustee or a U.S. trustee, or both) in bankruptcy of a contractor, or a contractor's bankruptcy estate;
(4) A contractor's assignee(s);
(5) A contractor's successor(s); or
(6) A claim asserted under the Prompt Payment Act, 31
U.S.C. 3901–3907.
4. Subcontracts. The contractor or subcontractor must insert in any subcontracts the clauses set forth in paragraphs 1. through 5. of this section and a clause requiring the
subcontractors to include these clauses in any lower tier subcontracts. The prime contractor is responsible for
compliance by any subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor with the clauses set forth in paragraphs 1. through 5. In the event of any violations of these clauses, the prime contractor and any subcontractor(s) responsible will be liable for any unpaid wages and monetary relief, including interest from the date of the underpayment or loss, due to any workers of lowertier subcontractors, and associated liquidated damages and may be subject to debarment, as appropriate.
5. Anti-retaliation. It is unlawful for any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, or to cause any person to discharge, demote, intimidate, threaten, restrain, coerce, blacklist, harass, or in any other manner discriminate against, any worker or job applicant for:
a. Notifying any contractor of any conduct which the worker reasonably believes constitutes a violation of the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (CWHSSA) or its
implementing regulations in this part;
b. Filing any complaint, initiating or causing to be initiated any proceeding, or otherwise asserting or seeking to assert on behalf of themselves or others any right or protection under CWHSSA or this part;
c. Cooperating in any investigation or other compliance action, or testifying in any proceeding under CWHSSA or this part; or
d. Informing any other person about their rights under
CWHSSA or this part.
VI. SUBLETTING OR ASSIGNING THE CONTRACT
This provision is applicable to all Federal-aid construction contracts on the National Highway System pursuant to 23 CFR 635.116.
1. The contractor shall perform with its own organization contract work amounting to not less than 30 percent (or a greater percentage if specified elsewhere in the contract) of the total original contract price, excluding any specialty items designated by the contracting agency. Specialty items may be performed by subcontract and the amount of any such
specialty items performed may be deducted from the total original contract price before computing the amount of work required to be performed by the contractor's own organization (23 CFR 635.116).
a. The term “perform work with its own organization” in paragraph 1 of Section VI refers to workers employed or leased by the prime contractor, and equipment owned or
rented by the prime contractor, with or without operators.
Such term does not include employees or equipment of a
subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor, agents of the prime contractor, or any other assignees. The term may include payments for the costs of hiring leased employees from an employee leasing firm meeting all relevant Federal and State regulatory requirements. Leased employees may only be
included in this term if the prime contractor meets all of the following conditions: (based on longstanding interpretation) (1) the prime contractor maintains control over the

SUBJECT:
Traffic Signal Installation at Cleveland Avenue and Granada Drive City Project No. TS-24, Federal Project CML 5157 (124)
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the contract award for Traffic Signal Installation at Cleveland Avenue and Granada Drive City Project No. TS-24, Federal Project CML 5157 (124), for $344,617 to St Francis Electric, LLC and adopting a CEQA Class 1 (Existing Facilities) categorical exemption for the project.
SUMMARY:
On January 27, 2026 the City received eight bids for Traffic Signal Installation at Cleveland Avenue and Granada Drive City Project No. TS-24, Federal Project CML 5157 (124) (Project). The project is funded from a combination of Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Improvement Program funds, Traffic Signal Impact Fee, and Local Transportation Funds (LTF). St Francis Electric, LLC. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid.
BACKGROUND:
Three traffic signal projects were originally combined into a larger project for bidding which included CIP Projects TS-23 (Howard, Pine, Yosemite, and Q Signal Modifications), TS-24 (new signal at Cleveland Avenue and Granada Drive), and TS-32 (new signal at South Street and D Street). This combined project went out to bid twice, in November 2023 and in August 2025.
Both times all bids were rejected by the City Council. In the case of the bids received in November of 2023 the bids were rejected due to TS-23 bids being an approximate $340,000 above the engineer’s estimate and therefore also above what was budgeted for the project. Staff then reviewed the TS-23 project and modified the bid documents and scope of work in an effort to reduce costs for future bids. In August of 2025 the combined project was rebid and once again Approved by:

rejected. Three bids were received in 2025; however the two lowest bids were deemed nonresponsive due to missing Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) documentation. The third bid was found responsive, however, again, the bid for TS-23 was approximately $255,000 above the engineer’s estimate and thus all bids were rejected. In order to keep the projects moving toward construction, staff made the decision to separate the three projects and solicit bids individually.
DISCUSSION:
The intersection of Cleveland & Granada is a traditional traffic signal installation; however, adjacent development was required to install three existing signal poles without mast arms for street lighting (and future signal). Therefore, the cost of this location would be expected to be less in comparison to a full traffic signal installation that typically includes cabinets, pullboxes, conduit, controller, mast arms, push buttons, Emergency Vehicle Pre-emption, signing, and striping.
On December 17, 2025, the City released the projects for public bidding on the PlanetBids web portal. Also, a “Notice Inviting Bids” was duly published in the Madera Tribune Newspaper on December 17 and December 24. Bidders could download the plans and specifications from PlanetBids.
On January 27, 2026, 8 bids were received. The bids were checked for accuracy against bidding requirements, validity of licenses, and bid security. The bids received are summarized in Table 1.

Traffic Signal Impact Fee $172,938
Local Transportation Fund (LTF) $37,062
Total Funding Source $549,000
St Francis Electric, LLC. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid that meets the contract requirements.
Staff recommends award of the Project to St Francis Electric, LLC. in the amount of $344,617 and inclusive of a provision of 10 percent of contract amount for allowable project contingencies as approved by the City Engineer.
Due to the long lead time for signal materials, approximately 6-9 months in most cases, Staff does not anticipate this signal being constructed and operational by the start of the 2026/2027 school year.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff has performed a preliminary environmental assessment of this project and has determined that this project would be categorically exempt pursuant to the California Environmental Act (CEQA) Guidelines section 15301, Class 1 (Existing Facilities), as the project would consist of alterations to an existing highway or street which do not create additional automobile lanes.
Further, none of the exceptions under CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 are applicable. The Notice of Exemption was filed with the County Clerk on October 5, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for this project comes from CMAQ, Local Transportation Fund (LTF), and Traffic Signal Impact Fee. Any local funds remaining at the conclusion of the project will return to their respective fund balance available for future projects.
ALTERNATIVES:
An alternative to awarding the contract is for the City Council to reject all bids. However, as noted above, this project has already been rebid on two prior occasions, making this the third solicitation. Staff does not anticipate that issuing a fourth bid would yield more favorable pricing; on the contrary, additional delay could result in higher bid submissions due to market volatility and inflationary pressures. Furthermore, rebidding may jeopardize the City’s ability to utilize the allocated Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funds within required timelines, thereby risking the potential loss of that funding.

8A. CLAIMS RESOLUTION PROCESS FOR DISPUTES.
It is the intent of this Contract that disputes regarding the Contract be resolved promptly and fairly between the Contractor and the Owner. However, it is recognized that some disputes will require detailed investigation and review by one or both parties before a determination and resolution can be reached. For the protection of the rights of both the Contractor and the Owner, the following provisions are provided for the resolution of disputes which cannot be resolved by the Owner and the Contractor within three business days after either party gives verbal notice of dispute or potential dispute to the other's attention and prior to the commencement of such work.
The following provisions are intended by Contractor and Owner to comply with Public Contract Code Sections 9204 and 20104 et. seq.
A. Claims:
The term “claim” refers to a separate demand by Contractor sent by registered mail or certified mail with return receipt requested, for one or more of the following:
1. A time extension, including, without limitation, for relief from damages or penalties for delay assessed by Owner under this Contract.
2. Payment by the Owner of money or damages arising from work done by, or on behalf of, the Contractor pursuant to the Contract and payment for which is not otherwise expressly provided or to which the Contractor is not otherwise entitled.
3. Payment of an amount that is disputed by the Owner.
B. The Claim Must Be Timely and in Writing:
For all claims the claim must be in writing and include the documents necessary to substantiate the claim. A notice of potential claim must be filed within five (5) business days of Contractor’s completion of work that is a potential claim. Notice of an actual claim must be filed on or before the date of final payment.
C. Receipt of Claim by Owner:
Upon receipt of a claim pursuant to this section, the Owner will conduct a reasonable review of the claim and, within a period not to exceed 45 days from the date of receipt, will provide the Contractor with a written statement identifying what portion of the claim is disputed and what portion is undisputed. Upon receipt of a claim, Owner and Contractor may, by mutual agreement, extend the time period provided in this section.
The Contractor shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim.
If additional information is thereafter required, it shall be requested and provided upon mutual agreement by the Owner and the Contractor. The District's written response to the claim, as further documented, shall be submitted to the claimant within 30 days after receipt of the further documentation, or within a period of time no greater than that taken by the Contractor in producing the additional information or requested documentation.
D. City Council Approval:
If the Owner needs approval from the City Council to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the City Council does not meet within the 45 days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the Owner shall have up to three days following the next duly publicly noticed regular meeting of the City Council after the 45-day period or extension expires to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion.
E. Payment of Claim:
Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the Owner issues its written statement. If the Owner fails to issue a written statement, paragraph F below shall apply.
F. Meet and Confer:
If the Contractor disputes the Owner’s written response, or if the Owner fails to respond to a claim issued pursuant to this section within the time prescribed, the Contractor may demand in writing an informal conference to meet and confer for settlement of the issues in dispute. Upon receipt of a demand in writing sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the Owner shall schedule a meet and confer conference within 30 days for settlement of the dispute.
Within 10 business days following the conclusion of the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion of the claim remains in dispute, the Owner shall provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the portion of the claim that remains in dispute and the portion that is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the Owner issues its written statement. Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the Owner and the Contractor sharing the associated costs equally. The Owner and Contractor shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing.
If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. If mediation is unsuccessful, the parts of the claim remaining in dispute shall be subject to applicable procedures outside this section.
Under this Contract, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in this section.
Unless otherwise agreed to by the Owner and the Contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Public Contract Code Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced.

G. Filing a Government Code Written Claim Notice:

H. Owner’s Failure to Respond to Claim:
Failure by the Owner to respond to a claim from Contractor within the time periods described above or to otherwise meet the time requirements set forth above shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. A claim that is denied by reason of the Owner’s failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute an adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility or qualifications of the Contractor.
I. Reserved.
J. Subcontractor Claims:
If a subcontractor or a lower tier subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against Owner because privity of contract does not exist, the Contractor may present to the Owner a claim on behalf of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor. For purposes of this paragraph, the term “subcontractor’ means any type of subcontractor within the meaning of Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of Division 3 of the Business and Professions Code who either is in direct contract with the Contractor or is a lower tier subcontractor. A subcontractor may request in writing, either on his or her own behalf or on behalf of a lower tier subcontractor, that the Contractor present a claim for work which was performed by the subcontractor or by a lower tier subcontractor on behalf of the subcontractor. The subcontractor requesting that the claim be presented to the Owner shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. Within 45 days of receipt of this written request, the Contractor shall notify the subcontractor in writing as to whether the contractor presented the claim to the Owner and, if the original contractor did not present the claim, provide the subcontractor with a statement of the reasons for not having done so.
K. Filing of Action on Unresolved Claims:
The parties shall follow the procedures set forth in Public Contracts Code Section 20104.4 if an action is filed to resolve claims under the foregoing provisions. Any action shall be filed in Madera County.
9. Attention is directed to Section 1735 of the Labor Code, which reads as follows:
“No discrimination shall be made in the employment of persons upon public works because of the race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, physical disability, mental disability, medical conditions, marital status, or sex of such persons except as provided in Section 12940 of the Government Code, and every contractor for public works violating this section is subject to all the penalties imposed for by violation of this chapter”.
10. In accordance with the provisions of Article 5, Chapter l, Part 7, Division 2 (commencing with Section 1860) and Chapter 4, Part l, Division 4 (commencing with Section 3700) of the Labor Code of the State of California, the CONTRACTOR is required to secure the payment of compensation to his employees and shall for that purpose obtain and keep in effect adequate Worker’s Compensation Insurance.
The undersigned CONTRACTOR is aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which requires every employer to be insured against Liability for Worker’s Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions before commencing the performance of the WORK of this Agreement.
11. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Part 7, Chapter l, Article 2, Section 1775 of the Labor Code of the State of California. The CONTRACTOR shall, as a penalty to the OWNER, forfeit fifty dollars ($50.00) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each workman paid less than the prevailing rates for such work or craft in which such workman is employed for any public work done under the Contract by him or by any SUBCONTRACTOR under him. The difference between such prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each workman for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each workman was paid less than a prevailing wage rate, shall be paid to each workman by the CONTRACTOR.
12. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Part 7, Chapter l, Article 2, Section 1776 of the Labor Code of the State of California. The CONTRACTOR shall keep and require that all SUBCONTRACTORS keep accurate payroll records showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice worker or other employee employed by him in connection with public work. Such payroll records shall be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of the CONTRACTOR by the OWNER, its officers and agents and to the representatives of the Division of Labor Law Enforcement of the State Department of Industrial Relations. In the event of non-compliance with the requirements of Section 1776, the CONTRACTOR shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects the CONTRACTOR must comply. Should non-compliance still be evident after the ten (10) day period, the CONTRACTOR shall, as a penalty to the OWNER forfeit twenty-five dollars ($25.00) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker until strict compliance is effectuated.
Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due.
13. Attention is directed to the provisions in Sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 of the Labor Code concerning the employment of apprentices by the CONTRACTOR or any SUBCONTRACTOR under him. It is the CONTRACTOR’S responsibility to ensure compliance by both itself and all SUBCONTRACTORS.
Section 1777.5 provides, in part, as follows:
The CONTRACTOR or SUBCONTRACTOR, if he is covered by this section, upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or if he has been previously approved in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeyman stipulated in the apprenticeship standards. Upon proper showing by the CONTRACTOR that he employs apprentices in the craft or trade in the State on all of his/her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by a journeyman, or in the land surveyor classification, one apprentice for each five journeyman, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certification exempting the CONTRACTOR from the one (1) to five (5) hourly ratio as set forth in this section. This section shall not apply to contracts of general CONTRACTORS or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime CONTRACTOR, when the contracts of general CONTRACTORS, or those specialty CONTRACTORS involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or forty (40) hours per week shall not be used to calculate the hourly ratio required by this section.
Apprenticeable craft or trade, as used in this section, shall mean a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the Apprenticeship Council. The joint apprenticeship committee shall have the discretion to grant a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting a CONTRACTOR from the 1 to 5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(a) In the event unemployment for the previous three month period in such area exceeds an average of 15 percent, or
(b) In the event the number of apprentices in training in such area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5, or
(c) If there is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least onethirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either (1) on a statewide basis, or (2) on a local basis, or
(d) If assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition which should jeopardize his life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees, or the public at large or if the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
When such exemptions are granted to an organization which represents CONTRACTORS in a specific trade from the 1 to 5 ratio on a local or statewide basis the member CONTRACTORS will not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, provided they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
The CONTRACTOR is required to make contributions to funds established for the administration of apprenticeship programs if he employs registered apprentices or journeymen in apprenticeable trade on such contracts and if other CONTRACTORS on the public work site are making such contributions. The CONTRACTOR, and any SUBCONTRACTOR under him, shall comply with the requirements of Sections 1777.5 and 1777.6 of the Labor Code in the employment of apprentices. Information relative to number of apprentices, identifications, wages, hours of employment and standards of working conditions shall be obtained from the Division of Apprenticeship Standards. Consult the white pages of your telephone directory under California, State of, Industrial Relations, Apprenticeship Standards, for the telephone number and address of the nearest office. Willful failure by the CONTRACTOR to comply with the provisions of Sections 1777.5 will subject the CONTRACTOR to the penalties set forth in Section 1777.7 of the Labor Code.
14. Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1813, eight hours in any one calendar day and forty (40) hours in any calendar week shall be the maximum hours any workman is required or permitted to work, except in cases of extraordinary emergency caused by fires, flood, or danger to life and property. The CONTRACTOR doing the work, or his duly authorized agent, shall file with OWNER a report, verified by his oath, setting forth the nature of the said emergency, which report shall contain the name of said worker and the hours worked by him on the said day, and the CONTRACTOR and each SUBCONTRACTOR shall also keep an accurate record showing the names and actual hours worked of all workers employed by him in connection with the work contemplated by this Agreement, which record shall be open at all reasonable hours to the inspection of the OWNER, or its officer or agents and to the Chief of all Division of Labor Statistics and Law Enforcement of the Department of Industrial Relations, his deputies or agents; and it is hereby further agreed that said CONTRACTOR shall forfeit as a penalty to the OWNER the sum of Twenty-Five Dollars ($25.00) for each laborer, workman or any SUBCONTRACTOR under him for each calendar day during which such laborer, workman or mechanic is required or permitted to labor more than eight (8) hours in violation of this stipulation.
Overtime and shift work may be established as a regular procedure by the CONTRACTOR with reasonable notice and written permission of the OWNER. No work other than overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure shall be performed between the hours of 6:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. nor on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays except such work as is necessary for the proper care and protection of the work already performed or in case of an emergency.
CONTRACTOR agrees to pay the costs of overtime inspection except those occurring as a result of overtime and shift work established as a regular procedure. Overtime inspection shall include inspection required during holidays, Saturdays, Sundays and weekdays.
Costs of overtime inspection will cover engineering, inspection, general supervision and overhead expenses which are directly chargeable to the overtime work. CONTRACTOR agrees that OWNER shall deduct such charges from payments due the CONTRACTOR.
15. The CONTRACTOR shall comply with Division 2, Chapter 4, Part 1 of the Public Contract Code relating to subletting and subcontracting, specifically included but not limited to Sections 4104, 4106, and 4110, which by this reference are incorporated into this Agreement as though fully set forth herein.
16. The CONTRACTOR and the OWNER agree that changes in this Agreement or in the work to be done under this Agreement shall become effective only when written in the form of a supplemental agreement or change order and approved and signed by the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. It is specifically agreed that the OWNER shall have the right to request any alterations, deviations, reductions or additions to the contract or the plans and specifications or any of them, and the amount of the cost thereof shall be added to or deducted from the amount of the contract price aforesaid by fair and reasonable valuations thereof.
This contract shall be held to be completed when the work is finished in accordance with the original plans and specifications as amended by such changes. No such change or modification shall release or exonerate any surety upon any guaranty or bond given in connection with this contract.
17. Contractor shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, and cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor's negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder, or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this AGREEMENT, except such loss or damage caused by the sole active negligence or willful misconduct of the City. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Contractor, or should City otherwise find Contractor’s legal counsel unacceptable, then Contractor shall reimburse the City its costs of defense, including without limitation, reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees, and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Contractor shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of the Contractor’s negligent, reckless, or wrongful performance. 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.
Contractor 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’s 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.
Contractor agrees to obtain or cause to be obtained executed defense and indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this Section from each and every Subcontractor and Subconsultant, of every Tier. In the event the Contractor fails to do so, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible to provide such defense and indemnification according to the terms of this Section.
18. Contractor must comply with the insurance requirements as described in the section “INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR”, pages 42-43 of the Contract Documents.
19.

City shall have the right to demand of St Francis Electric, LLC. the repayment to City of any funds disbursed St Francis Electric, LLC. under this Agreement which, as determined by the appropriate court or arbitrator, were not expended in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Any failure or delay by a party in asserting any of its rights and remedies as to any default shall not operate as a waiver of any default or of any rights or remedies associated with a default.
