Re: Letter of Support for Organizacion Las Panchas
Dear Binational of Central California:

On behalf of the City of Mendota and the Mendota City Council, I write to you in support of the grant application submitted by Organizaci6n Las Panchas for the HEAR US funding opportunity, to help provide behavioral and mental health resources to the communities throughout the Central Valley, including the City of Mendota.

Organizaci6n Las Panchas has continuously demonstrated impassioned advocacy, leadership, and outreach by bridging the gap between community organizations and members by going above and beyond to ensure that communities are aware of the vital resources that are available to them. The organization holds regular meetings with the public and invites representatives from community organizations to share information on the resources they offer, it conducts home-visits to farmworkers to provide information about available resources firsthand, and it attends a variety of events to engage the public and link them to wrap-around services.

Moreover, Organizaci6n Las Panchas continuously advocates for causes that are important to the community, including enhancing available resources for English Learner students and children with special needs. The organization recently played a vital role in developing an all-inclusive playground in the City of Mendota, ensuring that children of all abilities and their families are able to play together.

The dedicated individuals who comprise of Organizacion Las Panchas strive to serve the public with integrity and transparency, leading them to build and maintain deep-rooted partnerships that better serve corlmunities. By being selected as a recipient of the HEAR US funding opportunity, the organization will greatly increase their ability to help the communities they serve, and have a lasting, positive impact.

On behalf of the community of Mendota, we wholeheartedly ask that you consider the application submitted by Organizacion Las Panchas.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO RELEASE THE FINAL PAYMENT OF RETENTION TO DOUG ROSS, INC. DBA CENTRAL VALLEY ASPHALT, THE GENERAL

CONTRACTOR FOR THE FLEMING AVENUE AND MCCABE AVENUE STREET

RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT
DATE: MARCH 12, 2024
ISSUE
Should the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-12, authorizing the City Manager to release the final payment of retention to Doug Ross, Inc. dba Central Valley Asphalt, the general contractor for the Fleming Avenue and McCabe Avenue Street Reconstruction Project?

BACKGROUND
The City of Mendota (“City”) budgeted the use of Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (“SB1/RMRA”) funding for the construction of the Fleming Avenue and McCabe Avenue Street Reconstruction Project (“Project”) to reconstruct these streets between Rowe Avenue and Sorensen Avenue as well as a portion of Sorensen Avenue between Holmes Avenue and McCabe Avenue.

City Council Resolution No. 23-79 authorized the award of the construction contract for the Project to Doug Ross, Inc. dba Central Valley Asphalt (“Contractor”). On February 5, 2024, the Project was found to be substantially complete and on February 28, 2024, the Notice of Completion was recorded by the Fresno County Recorder as Document Number 2024-0017388.

Following recordation of the Notice of Completion, a 35-day waiting period commenced during which any stop notices or liens may be filed against the contractor.

ANALYSIS
To the best of staff’s knowledge, no liens or stop notices have been filed prior to nor during the 35-day waiting period; therefore, payment of the retention may be made in full.

FISCAL IMPACT
Final payment, including retention, of $20,897.80 was included in the fee of the awarded contract for the Project as well as the approved budget for Fiscal Year 2023-2024, utilizing SB1/RMRA funds (local Street Funds). This project will not impact the General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION
2 Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-12, authorizing the City Manager to release the final payment of retention to Doug Ross, Inc. dba Central Valley Asphalt, the general contractor for the Fleming Avenue and McCabe Avenue Street Reconstruction Project.

ISSUE
Shall the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-13, conditionally approving Exclusive Facility Use Permit Applications submitted by organization for the exclusive use of City of Mendota facilities for 2024?

Any applications submitted after this will be secondary to these permits and may be approved administratively by the City Manager, or their designee.

ANALYSIS
Attached to Resolution No. 24-13 are all of the Exclusive Facility Use Permit Applications (“Applications”) that were submitted by organizations to reserve use of various City facilities. As of the February 29, 2024 application deadline, eleven (11) Applications were received by the City for the exclusive use of a City facility for events that will benefit the community and its residents.

For a summary of all Applications, conditions of approval, and associated fees, please consult Exhibit “B” to Resolution No. 24-13.
2 FISCAL IMPACT

Administrative Policy
City Participation in Community Events
INTRODUCTION:

PURPOSE:

DEFINITIONS:

In light of the new administrative policy regarding the lending of City equipment to only events that are City sponsored, staff has recently reviewed the administrative policy regarding which events are considered to be City hosted.

After reviewing it, we realized that there are some events that are no longer being held on a regular basis, and some events that are common but not included. As such, this administrative policy is intended to clarify and replace the old administrative policy regarding City participation in community events.

The purpose of this Administrative Regulation ("Regulation") is intended to clarify and establish the role of the City of community events hosted by the City to promote recreational activities that provide·a-benefittoth-e·· community:· "City Hosted" means an event in which the City of Mendota is the host on behalf of non-profit organization(s) and has no direct financial contribution to the event.
"Community Event" is an event open to the general public authorized by the City for the use of a park, recreational area or building that promotes family entertainment and recreational activities for the community. "City Liaison" means a city employee working with the non-profit organization(s) on behalf of the City, but is not responsible for coordinating the event.

SUBJECT: APPROVING A ONE-YEAR CONTRACT EXTENSION WITH NETXPERTS FOR IT MANAGED

DOCUMENTS
DATE: MARCH 12, 2024
ISSUE
Should the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-14, approving a one-year contract extension with NetXperts for IT Managed Services and authorizing the City Manager to execute all necessary documents?

BACKGROUND
NetXperts has provided IT Managed Services for the City of Mendota for the past year. Since the City only had a one-year contract with NetXperts, an RFP was released to gather options before entering into an extension with NetXperts. On December 27, 2023, staff issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) for IT Managed Services. The RFP was advertised on the City’s website and a public notice was published in The Business Journal inviting interested parties to submit a proposal.

ANALYSIS
A total of 14 proposals were received by the City of Mendota. Upon reviewing the proposals received in comparison to the contract and services provided by NetXperts, it was determined that it was best to move forward with a contract extension of one year with NetXperts, as they offer the services requested at the lowest cost.

FISCAL IMPACT
A total of $12,000, to be divided into three parts and paid by the Sewer, Water, and General funds, will be expended for the year term.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 24-14, approving a one-year contract extension with NetXperts for IT Managed Services and authorizing the City Manager to execute all necessary documents.
