agreement and transition the partnership to a revised contract-for-services model beginning in Fiscal Year 2026/2027. Aligning the agreement term with the City’s fiscal year cycle will improve budgeting consistency, annual program coordination, and long-term financial planning for both organizations.

The proposed agreement establishes a three-year term covering Fiscal Years 2026/2027 through 2028/2029. Under the revised structure, the agreement shifts from a sponsorship-based model to a performance-based services agreement with clearly defined programs, events, deliverables, and expectations.

The agreement also incorporates accountability measures that allow the City to reduce compensation for any tasks or programs identified in the attached “Exhibit A” that are not completed by the Chamber. While individual tasks are assigned corresponding compensation amounts, payments will be distributed evenly over the term of the agreement.

The proposed agreement continues several existing programs and community events currently facilitated by the Chamber that have become important components of Menifee’s business and community engagement efforts, while also introducing new programming intended to further strengthen the local business environment and community engagement opportunities. Table 1 below outlines the continued and new programming included in the agreement, including future initiatives planned for Years 2 and 3.

TABLE 1 – AGREEMENT PROGRAMMING AND INITIATIVES
Existing Programming Proposed Programming
Monthly Business Retention Site Visits Enhanced Shop Local Programming Annual Menifee KEEP Business Walk Collaborative Business Forum Ribbon Cuttings and Grand Opening Ceremonies Leadership Menifee Valley Program Annual Commercial Real Estate Brokers
Appreciation Luncheon
Targeted Business Attraction Event
Annual State of the City Event Young Professionals Networking Event (Year 2)
Annual Chamber Golf Tournament Sponsorship Explore Menifee Tourism Initiative (Year 3) Annual Business Awards Gala Sponsorship
These programs provide ongoing opportunities to support local businesses, strengthen community partnerships, promote investment in Menifee, and enhance engagement with the business community.

The proposed agreement also revises the governance structure related to City participation on the Chamber Board of Directors. The existing designated non-voting Board seat will be eliminated, and any City representation on the Board will instead occur through the Chamber’s standard election process in accordance with Chamber bylaws. This revised structure aligns City participation with the Chamber’s established governance framework.

Consistent with the shared objective of fostering a financially sustainable and self-sufficient Chamber organization, the agreement also requires the Chamber to prepare and present an updated long-term sustainability plan prior to the conclusion of the agreement term. This update Item Title: 10.7

1 EXHIBIT “A”

CONTRACT FOR SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED TO THE CITY OF MENIFEE ________________________________________________________________________________ The Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce shall undertake, during the term of this Agreement, promotional, economic development, and workforce-related activities on behalf of the City as part of a contract for service. The following services and commitments are organized by category and shall be rendered on an annual basis unless otherwise indicated.

It is understood that if not otherwise specified, these events will run on an annual basis. The cost for this agreement will be $100,000 annual for 3 years. The contract for service shall be paid out evenly over a 12-month period starting with the approval of this contract. The City of Menifee retains the right to deduct the associated amount due for service if the contractor fails to execute any of the services listed.

SECTION I – BUSINESS RETENTION
The following activities are designed to support and strengthen existing Menifee businesses, reduce attrition, support revenue generation and create the conditions for local businesses to scale, hire, and thrive. ▌ Direct Outreach & Field Programs
Business Retention Site Visits $4,000 Activity Description: The Chamber shall conduct a minimum of 15 business retention site visits per month, scheduling and attending each visit and inviting the City's Economic Development team to participate. Visits are structured to identify barriers, gather intelligence on business needs, and facilitate connections to City resources.

Economic & Community Impact: Direct engagement with employers helps identify expansion or at-risk businesses early, enabling targeted intervention. Consistent outreach builds trust between the business community and City, supporting job preservation and growth.

Menifee KEEP Business Walk (Keeping Existing Employers Profitable) $5,000 Activity Description: Conducted annually in partnership with the City of Menifee, the KEEP Walk is a structured canvassing survey of local businesses. Chamber staff and volunteers survey business owners on-site to assess operational challenges, workforce needs, expansion plans, and satisfaction with the City's business climate. Survey results are compiled and presented to the City via a State of Business Report.

Economic & Community Impact: The KEEP Walk is one of the most direct tools available for identifying businesses at risk of closure or relocation and measuring business climate. By capturing real-time data from employers, the City and Chamber can respond proactively, preserving existing jobs and informing future economic development strategy and programming.

Ribbon Cuttings & Grand Opening Ceremonies $5,000 Activity Description: The Chamber coordinates and hosts ribbon cutting and grand opening ceremonies for Chamber members and up to 10 non-Chamber member businesses per year. Events are promoted through Chamber social media channels, email, and the Chamber website to maximize attendance and visibility for new businesses.

Economic & Community Impact: Ribbon cuttings provide critical early-stage visibility for new businesses, increasing foot traffic and community awareness at the most vulnerable stage of business development. By welcoming new businesses publicly and in partnership with elected officials and community leaders, the Chamber reinforces Menifee's reputation as a welcoming place to open and grow a business — a key message in ongoing business attraction efforts.

2 Collaborative Business Forum $5,000 Activity Description: The Menifee Collaborative Business Forum is a facilitated gathering convening local business owners, chamber representatives, and city representatives to engage in open dialogue on issues affecting the Menifee business community. Participants collaborate to identify opportunities, address barriers to growth, and align priorities between the private sector and municipal government. Each forum includes structured discussion topics for discussion.

Economic & Community Impact: By establishing a consistent platform for public-private dialogue, the Forum strengthens the relationship between the City of Menifee and its business community, fostering an environment conducive to local economic growth, job creation, and investment retention. The collaborative structure ensures that business concerns are formally channeled into city planning and policy considerations, resulting in more responsive governance and a stronger, more unified local economy. ▌ Education & Leadership Programs
Leadership Menifee Valley Program $5,000 Activity Description: The Chamber shall develop, promote, and facilitate the Leadership Menifee Valley program, a structured educational series designed to equip local business owners, managers, and community stakeholders with the knowledge, tools, and networks to lead effectively in Menifee's evolving economy. The program covers economic development priorities, legislative advocacy, workforce trends, and civic engagement.

Economic & Community Impact: Well-informed, well-connected business leaders are more likely to make strategic investment decisions — expanding operations, hiring locally, and increasing wages. Leadership Menifee serves as a pipeline for engaged civic participation and informed advocacy, directly contributing to the creation of higher-quality jobs and a more resilient local economy.

Shop Local Program $10,000 Activity Description: The Chamber in partnership with Menifee Economic Development shall promote, maintain, and expand the Shop Local program, a year-round initiative that encourages Menifee residents and businesses to prioritize purchasing from locally owned establishments. The program includes digital campaigns, in-store participation signage, social media promotion across Chamber-managed accounts (Facebook, Instagram, and others), and collaboration with the City on promotional calendar events.

Economic & Community Impact: Every dollar spent locally recirculates within the community at a higher rate than spending at out-of-region businesses. A robust Shop Local program strengthens Menifee's sales tax base, supports small business viability, and creates and sustains community-level employment. It reinforces Menifee's identity as a thriving commercial destination. ▌ Workforce Development
Job Fair — Co-Hosted with MSJC and Regional Partners $5,000 Activity Description: The Chamber shall co-host a minimum of one annual Job Fair in partnership with Mt. San Jacinto College (MSJC), the City of Menifee, and other regional partners.

CITY OF MENIFEE
SUBJECT: Agreements for On-Call Services for the Building and Safety Division for Fiscal Year 2026/27
MEETING DATE: June 17, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
PREPARED BY: Laura Sportelli, Management Analyst
REVIEWED BY: Orlando Hernandez, Community Development Director APPROVED BY: Armando G. Villa, City Manager
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RECOMMENDED ACTION

1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute three Professional Services Agreements for on-call plan review, inspection, and permit technician services for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 for a not-to-exceed amount of $500,000 per fiscal year.

DISCUSSION
The Building and Safety division of the Community Development department currently utilizes consultants to provide necessary permit technician, inspection, and plan review services on an on-call, as-needed, basis. The current Professional Services Agreements (Agreements) for on- call services are set to expire on June 30, 2026, as they run concurrently with each fiscal year (FY).

On May 12, 2026, and in conjunction with the Planning Division of the Community Development Department, the Building and Safety Division completed a competitive Request for Qualification (RFQ) process to establish an approved short list of qualified firms. Firms were evaluated and recommended for the Division’s on-call professional services short list for FYs 2026/2027 through 2028/2029, with an option to extend the list for an additional two FYs (2029/30 and 2030/31). The final short list, consisting of eight eligible firms, was approved by the City Council on June 3, 2026.

Of the eight firms, the three firms referenced in Table 1 received the highest rated evaluations and were selected based on their top scores in experience, qualifications, workplan methodology, and client satisfaction. While staff is recommending Agreements with the three highest-ranked firms at this time, the remaining firms on the approved short list will be eligible for consideration should future service needs arise.

In preparation for the next FY 2026/2027, staff recommends the approval of the Agreements outlined in Table 1 for necessary consulting services covering the period of July 1, 2026, to June 30, 2027.
