ORDINANCE NO. 3747-C.S.
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 17-3-9 OF THE ZONING MAP TO REZONE FROM LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL ZONE, R-1, AND
COMMERCIAL-INDUSTRIAL ZONE, C-M, TO PLANNED DEVELOPMENT ZONE, P-D(615), PROPERTY LOCATED AT 1601 AND 1625 MCHENRY
AVENUE (CITY INITIATED)
WHEREAS, a verified application for an amendment to Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map was filed by the City of Modesto on May 10, 2022, to rezone from Low Density Residential Zone. R-1, and Commercial-Industrial Zone, C-M, to Planned Development Zone, P-D(615) property located at 1601 and 1625 McHenry Avenue; and WHEREAS, after a public hearing held on June 20, 2022, it was found and determined by the Planning Commission that the requested zone change will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare because the Commercial Industrial (CM) Zone is a legacy zone that permits industrial uses that are not compatible with nearby residential uses, the requested zone change will result in an orderly planned use of land because the rezone will align the property with the current General Plan Corridor Development Concept for this site and allow land use compliant with the goals and policies for site development, and the requested zone change is in accordance with the community objectives as set forth in the Modesto Urban Area General Plan and any applicable specific plans(s) because the change would allow existing professional office and non-auto related retail commercial uses to remain; and WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 2022-18, adopted on June 20, 2022, the Planning Commission recommended to the Council that the application of the City of Modesto to amend Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map to rezone the hereinafter described #7..

property from Low Density Residential Zone, R-1, and Commercial-Industrial Zone, CM, to Planned Development Zone, P-D (615), be approved.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Council of the City of Modesto does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. After a public hearing held on August 9th, 2022, in the Tenth Street Place Chambers located at 1010 10th Street, Modesto, California, this Council finds and determines as follows:
1. The requested change will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare because the current Commercial Industrial (C-M) Zone is a legacy zone that permits industrial uses that are not compatible with nearby residential uses, said zone originally enacted in July of 1955 to allow for the operation of a then-existing milk processing facility that has since been demolished and redeveloped with new retail commercial and professional office uses. The requested change to Planned Development Zone, PD(615) would allow for professional office and non-auto related retail commercial uses to remain. Industrial uses would not be allowed that could be incompatible with surrounding uses.
2. The requested change will result in an orderly planned use of land because rezone will align the property with the current General Plan Corridor Development Concept for this site and allow land use compliant with the goals and policies for site development.
3. The requested change is in accordance with the community’s objectives as set forth in the General Plan and any applicable specific plan(s) because the change would allow existing professional office and non-auto related retail commercial uses to remain.
The Council of the City of Modesto does ordain as follows:
SECTION 2. ZONING CHANGE. Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map is hereby amended to reclassify the following described property from Low Density #7..

THE CITY OF MODESTO TO REZONE FROM COMMERCIAL-INDUSTRIAL (C-M) ZONE TO GENERAL COMMERCIAL (C-2) ZONE, PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 1707 MCHENRY AVENUE (CITY OF MODESTO)
WHEREAS, a verified application for an amendment to Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map was filed by the City of Modesto on May 10, 2022, to rezone from Commercial-Industrial Zone, C-M, to General Commercial Zone, C-2, property located at 1707 McHenry Avenue; and
WHEREAS, after a public hearing held on June 20, 2022, it was found and determined by the Planning Commission that the requested zone change will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare because the current Commercial Industrial (C-M) Zone is a legacy zone that permits industrial uses that are not compatible with nearby residential uses, the requested zone change will result in an orderly planned use of land because the rezone will align existing retail and professional office development with the current General Plan land use designation of Commercial (C) uses and provide for uses as allowed in the General Commercial (C-2) Zone, and the requested zone change is in accordance with the community objectives as set forth in the Modesto Urban Area General Plan and any applicable specific plans(s) because the change would allow existing professional office and retail commercial uses to remain; and WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 2022-17, adopted on June 20, 2022, the Planning Commission recommended to the Council that the application of the City of Modesto to amend Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map to rezone the hereinafter described property from Commercial-Industrial Zone, C-M, to General Commercial Zone, C-2, be approved.

SECTION 1. After a public hearing held on August 9th 2022, in the Tenth Street Place Chambers located at 1010 10th Street, Modesto, California, this Council finds and determines as follows:
1. The requested change will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare because the current Commercial Industrial (C-M) Zone is a legacy zone that permits industrial uses that are not compatible with nearby residential uses, said zone originally enacted in July of 1955 to allow for the operation of a then-existing milk processing facility that has since been demolished and redeveloped with new retail commercial and professional office uses. The requested change to General Commercial (C-2) would allow for the retail and professional office buildings to remain.
Industrial uses would not be allowed that could be incompatible with surrounding uses.
2. The requested change will result in an orderly planned use of land because rezone will align existing retail and professional office development with the current General Plan land use designation of Commercial (C) uses and provide for uses as allowed in the General Commercial (C-2) Zone.
3. The requested change is in accordance with the community’s objectives as set forth in the General Plan and any applicable specific plan(s) because the change would allow existing professional office and retail commercial uses to remain.
SECTION 2. ZONING CHANGE. Section 17-3-9 of the Zoning Map is hereby amended to rezone the following described property from Commercial-Industrial Zone, C-M, to General Commercial, C-2:
C-M to C-2

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
August 23, 2022
Date: August 2, 2022
TO: Mayor & City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jose M. Sanchez, City Attorney
CONTACT: Jose M. Sanchez, City Attorney, 209-577-5284, [email protected] DESCRIPTION:
Consider approving a resolution continuing to authorize remote teleconference meetings pursuant to Assembly Bill 361. (Funding Source: Not Applicable) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item is related to the 2020-2025 Strategic Plan goal of promoting trust and engagement.
BACKGROUND:
On March 4, 2020, Governor Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the State prepare for a broader spread of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”). On March 19, 2020, the City Council adopted Resolution Number 2020-140, ratifying the proclamation of a local emergency by the Director of Emergency Services due to COVID-19.
All meetings of the City Council and the City’s other legislative bodies are open and public, as required by the Ralph M. Brown Act, Government Code section 54950 et seq., so that any member of the public may attend, participate, and watch the City’s legislative bodies conduct their business. On March 17, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20 suspending certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act in order to allow local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means in order to slow the spread of COVID-19. As a result of Executive Order N-29-20, staff set up virtual meetings for all City Council meetings and other City legislative bodies. On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which, effective September 30, 2021, ended the provisions of Executive Order N-29-20 that allowed local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means.

City Council, August 23, 2022
Assembly Bill 361-Continued Remote Teleconference Meetings
DISCUSSION:
On September 16, 2021, the Governor signed Assembly Bill (AB) 3611 (2021) which allows for local legislative bodies to continue to conduct meetings via teleconferencing under specified conditions and includes a requirement that the City Council make specified findings. AB 361 took effect immediately. In addition to other circumstances, the City and its legislative bodies will be allowed to continue to meet remotely during a declared state of emergency when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, or when the Council finds that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.
On Tuesday, September 28, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-370, finding that a state of emergency exists and that the County of Stanislaus Health Officer had imposed and recommended social distancing measures for residents within the City. On Tuesday, October 5, 2021, the City Council held their first meeting in accordance with the requirements of Government Code section 54953(e).
In order to continue to hold remote meetings, the City Council must reconsider the state of emergency and declare every 30 days that either (i) the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or (ii) State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.
The City has reconsidered the state of emergency, as declared by the Governor, which continues in existence. In addition, health officials continue to recommend measures to slow the spread of COVID-19. The Stanislaus County Public Health Services Agency still strongly recommends community members to wear a mask in any indoor public place, along with other recommendations that promote social distancing in indoor spaces. These measures can be found here: http://schsa.org/coronavirus/guidances/face-coverings/.
The proposed resolution includes the necessary findings in order for the City Council and the other legislative bodies of the City to continue holding remote teleconference meetings pursuant to AB 361.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no cost associated with this item.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
This agenda item was not presented to a Council Committee.
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:
Staff Recommendations:
Resolution continuing to authorize remote teleconference meetings of the City of Modesto pursuant to Assembly Bill 361.
1 Assembly Bill No. 361 - An act to add and repeal Section 89305.6 of the Education Code, and to amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of, and to add and repeal Section 11133 of, the Government Code, relating to open meetings, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB361 #10..

CHAPTER 165
An act to add and repeal Section 89305.6 of the Education Code, and to amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of, and to add and repeal Section 11133 of, the Government Code, relating to open meetings, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.
[Approved by Governor September 16, 2021. Filed with
Secretary of State September 16, 2021.]
legislative counsel’s digest
AB 361, Robert Rivas. Open meetings: state and local agencies:
teleconferences.
(1) Existing law, the Ralph M. Brown Act requires, with specified exceptions, that all meetings of a legislative body of a local agency, as those terms are defined, be open and public and that all persons be permitted to attend and participate. The act contains specified provisions regarding the timelines for posting an agenda and providing for the ability of the public to directly address the legislative body on any item of interest to the public.
The act generally requires all regular and special meetings of the legislative body be held within the boundaries of the territory over which the local agency exercises jurisdiction, subject to certain exceptions. The act allows for meetings to occur via teleconferencing subject to certain requirements, particularly that the legislative body notice each teleconference location of each member that will be participating in the public meeting, that each teleconference location be accessible to the public, that members of the public be allowed to address the legislative body at each teleconference location, that the legislative body post an agenda at each teleconference location, and that at least a quorum of the legislative body participate from locations within the boundaries of the local agency’s jurisdiction. The act provides an exemption to the jurisdictional requirement for health authorities, as defined. The act authorizes the district attorney or any interested person, subject to certain provisions, to commence an action by mandamus or injunction for the purpose of obtaining a judicial determination that specified actions taken by a legislative body are null and void.
Existing law, the California Emergency Services Act, authorizes the Governor, or the Director of Emergency Services when the governor is inaccessible, to proclaim a state of emergency under specified circumstances.
Executive Order No. N-29-20 suspends the Ralph M. Brown Act’s requirements for teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the legislative body at the meeting, and that a legislative body of a local agency has a procedure for receiving and swiftly

- 56 -
resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.
This bill, until January 1, 2024, would authorize a local agency to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Brown Act when a legislative body of a local agency holds a meeting during a declared state of emergency, as that term is defined, when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, during a proclaimed state of emergency held for the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, and during a proclaimed state of emergency when the legislative body has determined that meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, as provided.
This bill would require legislative bodies that hold teleconferenced meetings under these abbreviated teleconferencing procedures to give notice of the meeting and post agendas, as described, to allow members of the public to access the meeting and address the legislative body, to give notice of the means by which members of the public may access the meeting and offer public comment, including an opportunity for all persons to attend via a call-in option or an internet-based service option, and to conduct the meeting in a manner that protects the statutory and constitutional rights of the parties and the public appearing before the legislative body. The bill would require the legislative body to take no further action on agenda items when there is a disruption which prevents the public agency from broadcasting the meeting, or in the event of a disruption within the local agency’s control which prevents members of the public from offering public comments, until public access is restored. The bill would specify that actions taken during the disruption are subject to challenge proceedings, as specified.
This bill would prohibit the legislative body from requiring public comments to be submitted in advance of the meeting and would specify that the legislative body must provide an opportunity for the public to address the legislative body and offer comment in real time. The bill would prohibit the legislative body from closing the public comment period and the opportunity to register to provide public comment, until the public comment period has elapsed or until a reasonable amount of time has elapsed, as specified. When there is a continuing state of emergency, or when state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, the bill would require a legislative body to make specified findings not later than 30 days after the first teleconferenced meeting pursuant to these provisions, and to make those findings every 30 days thereafter, in order to continue to meet under these abbreviated teleconferencing procedures.
Existing law prohibits a legislative body from requiring, as a condition to attend a meeting, a person to register the person’s name, or to provide other information, or to fulfill any condition precedent to the person’s attendance.
92 Ch. 165 — 2 —

This bill would exclude from that prohibition, a registration requirement imposed by a third-party internet website or other online platform not under the control of the legislative body.
(2) Existing law, the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act, requires, with specified exceptions, that all meetings of a state body be open and public and all persons be permitted to attend any meeting of a state body. The act requires at least one member of the state body to be physically present at the location specified in the notice of the meeting.
The Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20 suspends the requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act for teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic, provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the state body at the meeting, and that a state body has a procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.
This bill, until January 31, 2022, would authorize, subject to specified notice and accessibility requirements, a state body to hold public meetings through teleconferencing and to make public meetings accessible telephonically, or otherwise electronically, to all members of the public seeking to observe and to address the state body. With respect to a state body holding a public meeting pursuant to these provisions, the bill would suspend certain requirements of existing law, including the requirements that each teleconference location be accessible to the public and that members of the public be able to address the state body at each teleconference location. Under the bill, a state body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing and allows members of the public to observe and address the meeting telephonically or otherwise electronically would satisfy any requirement that the state body allow members of the public to attend the meeting and offer public comment. The bill would require that each state body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing provide notice of the meeting, and post the agenda, as provided. The bill would urge state bodies utilizing these teleconferencing procedures in the bill to use sound discretion and to make reasonable efforts to adhere as closely as reasonably possible to existing law, as provided.
(3) Existing law establishes the various campuses of the California State University under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, and authorizes the establishment of student body organizations in connection with the operations of California State University campuses.
The Gloria Romero Open Meetings Act of 2000 generally requires a legislative body, as defined, of a student body organization to conduct its business in a meeting that is open and public. The act authorizes the legislative body to use teleconferencing, as defined, for the benefit of the public and the legislative body in connection with any meeting or proceeding authorized by law.
This bill, until January 31, 2022, would authorize, subject to specified notice and accessibility requirements, a legislative body, as defined for purposes of the act, to hold public meetings through teleconferencing and 92 — 3 — Ch. 165
#10..
- 58 -
to make public meetings accessible telephonically, or otherwise electronically, to all members of the public seeking to observe and to address the legislative body. With respect to a legislative body holding a public meeting pursuant to these provisions, the bill would suspend certain requirements of existing law, including the requirements that each teleconference location be accessible to the public and that members of the public be able to address the legislative body at each teleconference location.
Under the bill, a legislative body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing and allows members of the public to observe and address the meeting telephonically or otherwise electronically would satisfy any requirement that the legislative body allow members of the public to attend the meeting and offer public comment. The bill would require that each legislative body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing provide notice of the meeting, and post the agenda, as provided. The bill would urge legislative bodies utilizing these teleconferencing procedures in the bill to use sound discretion and to make reasonable efforts to adhere as closely as reasonably possible to existing law, as provided.
(4) This bill would declare the Legislature’s intent, consistent with the Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20, to improve and enhance public access to state and local agency meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic and future emergencies by allowing broader access through teleconferencing options.
(5) This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 54953 of the Government Code proposed by AB 339 to be operative only if this bill and AB 339 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
(6) The California Constitution requires local agencies, for the purpose of ensuring public access to the meetings of public bodies and the writings of public officials and agencies, to comply with a statutory enactment that amends or enacts laws relating to public records or open meetings and contains findings demonstrating that the enactment furthers the constitutional requirements relating to this purpose.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect. (7) Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect. (8) This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
SECTION 1. Section 89305.6 is added to the Education Code, to read:

SEC. 6. It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this act to improve and enhance public access to state and local agency meetings during the COVID-19 pandemic and future applicable emergencies, by allowing broader access through teleconferencing options consistent with the Governor’s Executive Order No. N-29-20 dated March 17, 2020, permitting expanded use of teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
SEC. 7. The Legislature finds and declares that Sections 3 and 4 of this act, which amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of the Government Code, further, within the meaning of paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the purposes of that constitutional section as it relates to the right of public access to the meetings of local public bodies or the writings of local public officials and local agencies. Pursuant to paragraph (7) of subdivision (b) of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution, the Legislature makes the following findings:
This act is necessary to ensure minimum standards for public participation and notice requirements allowing for greater public participation in teleconference meetings during applicable emergencies.
SEC. 8. (a) The Legislature finds and declares that during the COVID-19 public health emergency, certain requirements of the Bagley-Keene Open Meeting Act (Article 9 (commencing with Section 11120) of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code) were suspended by Executive Order N-29-20. Audio and video teleconference were widely used to conduct public meetings in lieu of physical location meetings, and public meetings conducted by teleconference during the COVID-19 public health emergency have been productive, have increased public participation by all members of the public regardless of their location in the state and ability to travel to physical meeting locations, have protected the health and safety of civil servants and the public, and have reduced travel costs incurred by members of state bodies and reduced work hours spent traveling to and from meetings.

(b) The Legislature finds and declares that Section 1 of this act, which adds and repeals Section 89305.6 of the Education Code, Section 2 of this act, which adds and repeals Section 11133 of the Government Code, and Sections 3 and 4 of this act, which amend, repeal, and add Section 54953 of the Government Code, all increase and potentially limit the public’s right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies within the meaning of Section 3 of Article I of the California Constitution. Pursuant to that constitutional provision, the Legislature makes the following findings to demonstrate the interest protected by this limitation and the need for protecting that interest:
(1) By removing the requirement that public meetings be conducted at a primary physical location with a quorum of members present, this act protects the health and safety of civil servants and the public and does not preference the experience of members of the public who might be able to attend a meeting in a physical location over members of the public who cannot travel or attend that meeting in a physical location. (2) By removing the requirement for agendas to be placed at the location of each public official participating in a public meeting remotely, including from the member’s private home or hotel room, this act protects the personal, private information of public officials and their families while preserving the public’s right to access information concerning the conduct of the people’s business.
SEC. 9. This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the meaning of Article IV of the California Constitution and shall go into immediate effect.
The facts constituting the necessity are:
In order to ensure that state and local agencies can continue holding public meetings while providing essential services like water, power, and fire protection to their constituents during public health, wildfire, or other states of emergencies, it is necessary that this act take effect immediately.

City Council, August 23, 2022
Second Amendment to WSP USA Construction Management Services Agreement for State Route 132 West Freeway/Expressway - Phase 1 Project
DISCUSSION:
Due to several crucial changes related to the Modesto Irrigation District (MID) Access Road, Carpenter Road Reconfiguration, and the Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) Overlay of Kansas Avenue between N. Carpenter Road and N. Dakota Avenue, the Project is estimated to extend beyond the current contract completion date of June 20, 2022 to September 30, 2022, with Project Closeout being completed in December of this year.
On June 6, 2022, WSP submitted a Second Amendment Request to the Construction Management Services Agreement in the amount of $621,745. Staff recommends approving the Second Amendment to the Agreement with WSP USA Inc. to complete the scope of Construction Management Services for the Project.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Project is supported by a complex matrix of funding sources; each having a variety of requirements and constraints. The Construction Management Service Agreement with WSP is funded through Regional Measure L Funds, which allows up to $9,870,886 in reimbursement.
This Second Amendment increases the original agreement amount by $621,745, plus $62,175 additional services, if needed, for a total not to exceed amount of $12,447,994, and will be funded with Streets Capital Facility Fees (CFF).
There are sufficient funds in the Streets CFF to support the amendment. Staff has reviewed other funding sources for the amendment; however, they are restricted to the construction contract for the project. Staff will continue to review and seek other funding sources for this amendment if they become available.

B. On or about August 4, 2021, at the City’s request, Consultant submitted to City a budget augmentation for additional construction management services in excess of the $9,870,886 authorized in the Original Agreement, attached to the Original Agreement and referred to therein as Exhibit “A”.
C. The aforementioned additional construction management services increase the amount of the Original Agreement by $1,721,080.
D. The Original Agreement states that the Agreement shall end on December 31, 2021, unless extended by agreement of the parties.

City of Modesto
P.O. Box 642
Modesto, CA 95353
RE: State Route 132 West Freeway/ Expressway-Phase 1 Project, Amendment No. 1 Dear Mr. Rawles,
The purpose of this letter is to request an Amendment to the existing State Route 132 West Freeway/Expressway Phase 1 Project Construction Management Services Agreement between the City of Modesto and WSP USA INC. executed on June 25, 2019.
The original WSP contract (Agreement) was procured approximately 6-months prior to start of project construction. At that time staff was unsure if there would be enough funding to complete the entire construction project as originally contemplated. To ensure financial support of the construction project, a bid alternate strategy was developed. This bid alternate work was to support construction of an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) requested by Caltrans and to support a fully developed landscape plan as originally intended. The result of this added work was to extend the construction completion date from October 2021 to June 2022 and provide for 3-year Plant Establishment Period.
The WSP Agreement was tendered to support the base bid contract excluding the added alternatives and Plant Establishment Period. When the construction contract bids were received, the City was able to fund the project as originally intended. The inclusion of the bid alternates added approximately 6-months to the base bid construction schedule in addition to a 3-year Plant Establishment Period. This extension of the project schedule carried with it the need to extend the WSP Agreement to perform the Scope of Services for an additional extended term.
The Scope of Services for purposes of this Amendment (Amendment No. 1) remains unchanged from that which was provided in the Agreement. This Amendment extends WSP’s obligations to perform the Scope of Services listed in Exhibit “A” of the Agreement for the term of the Amendment.
Please extend the agreement duration noted on page 1 of the Construction Management Services Agreement, which indicates this Agreement shall end on December 31, 2021, unless extended by agreement of the parties. It is suggested the Agreement be extended to completion of construction contract closeout with Caltrans or December 31, 2025. #12..

On June 1, 2022, Dokken Engineering submitted to the City a budget augmentation for additional tasks in the amount of $154,858, for a total contract amount of $9,400,083.
DISCUSSION:
The City opened bids for the construction of State Route 132 West Freeway/Expressway – Phase I Project on August 20, 2019. Due to the complexity of the project, design support services are required during the construction of the project to provide technical support to the construction manager.
As the project construction has developed, additional design support services have been identified to complete tasks that were not known during final design. The additional services to be provided include continuation of design services after estimated construction completion date, Kansas Avenue Overlay, and BCS As-builts. Staff recommends approving the Sixth Amendment with Dokken Engineering to assist the successful completion of the SR132 West Freeway/Expressway – Phase 1 Project.
In accordance with Modesto Municipal Code 8-3.204(a) Exceptions to Formal Bidding Requirements, this Sixth Amendment to the original Agreement is for professional services and, therefore, exempt from the bid requirement. Staff proceeded through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process pursuant to Administrative Directive 3.1.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Project is supported by a complex matrix of funding sources, each having a variety of requirements and constraints. The Plans, Specifications, and Estimates (PS&E) phase and Right of Way (ROW) phase of the Project is funded by a combination of CFF, County Public Facility Fees (PFF), Regional Measure L, Federal grants and state funds. Funds for the PS&E phase of the project were previously approved and are currently available in Capital Improvement Program (CIP) #100614.
The $154,858 for the Sixth Amendment to the Dokken Engineering Agreement will be paid from Project #101119 – SR 132 West Expressway. This account was created for the construction phase of the project.
The Sixth Amendment will be funded with Regional Measure L funds with the approval of the $31.8M Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Stanislaus Council of Governments (StanCOG) that was presented to City Council as a separate item on September 24, 2019. That #13..
