INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
To the Policy Board
Stanislaus Council of Governments
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities and major fund of the Measure L Fund of the City of Modesto, California (the Measure L Fund), pertaining to certain provisions of Measure L: Local Road First Transportation Funding Measure (the Measure L Program), issued by the Stanislaus Council of Governments acting as the Stanislaus County Transportation Authority as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, the budgetary comparison schedule for the special revenue fund and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Measure L Fund’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities and major fund of the Measure L Fund, as of June 30, 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and budgetary comparison for the special revenue fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Measure L Fund and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Measure L Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.
#16..
- 1717 -
2 Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Measure L Fund’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
• Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Measure L Fund’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis be presented to supplement the financial statements. Management has omitted such information. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by the missing information.

Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion the financial statements the collectively comprise the Measure L Funds’ basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures by project (supplemental schedule) is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplemental schedule is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
#16..
- 1718 -
3 Emphasis-of-Matters
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements present only the Measure L Fund referred to above and are not intended to present the financial position of the City of Modesto, California as a whole and the respective changes in financial position, or where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 15, 2023 on our consideration of the Measure L Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Measure L Fund’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Measure L Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
9 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying financial statements present only the City of Modesto’s Measure L Fund and are not intended to present fairly the financial position, changes in financial position, or cash flows of the City of Modesto, California (the City) as a whole in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Reporting Entity: The City of Modesto’s Measure L Fund (the Measure L Fund), is a special revenue fund of the City.

Stanislaus Council of Governments (StanCOG) is the regional transportation planning agency and the metropolitan planning organization of Stanislaus County, which oversees the Measure L Initiative. Measure L provides for the implementation of the Expenditure Plan as approved and adopted by StanCOG, which provides funding for countywide local street and road improvements, arterial street widening, signalization, pedestrian, bicyclist and driver safety improvements. These needed improvements are funded by Measure L, the one-half of one percent retail transactions and use tax established for a twenty-five-year period, April 1, 2017 – March 31, 2042. The revenues will be deposited in a special fund, used solely for the transportation projects, improvements and programs described in the Expenditure Plan which is considered a part of Ordinance, and incorporated into Measure L Policies and Procedures. The City’s Department of Public Works and Planning staff provides the necessary services such as maintenance and accounting to the Measure L Fund on a reimbursement basis with no allocation of payroll expenses.

Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation: The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities) report information on all of the Measure L fund activities. The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported as general revenues.

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. • Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements are met.
• Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental fund financial statements (i.e., Balance Sheet and Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance) are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available.

Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. Revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, interest on investments, and intergovernmental revenues. Property taxes are recorded as revenues in the fiscal year in which they are levied, provided they are collected in the current period or within sixty days thereafter. A one-year availability period is used for all other revenues. Interest on invested funds is recognized when earned.

Intergovernmental revenues that are reimbursements for specific expenditures are recognized when all eligibility requirements are met. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting; however, debt service expenditures are recorded only when payment is due. #16..

STANISLAUS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS

MEASURE L - CITY OF MODESTO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
10 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation (continued): Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund Balance Sheet and the governmental fund Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balance provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The Measure L Fund reports one major governmental fund:

The Special Revenue Fund is the primary operating fund and accounts for all financial resources of the Measure L Fund of the City.

The Measure L Fund adopts annual appropriated budgets for its special revenue fund, which is a major fund.

Budgetary comparison schedules have been provided for this fund to demonstrate compliance with the budgets.

Cash and Investments: In order to maximize the flexibility of its investment program and to aid in cash budgeting, the City pools the cash of all funds, except for monies deposited with fiscal agents in accordance with related bond indentures. The cash and investments balance in each fund represents that fund’s equity share of the City’s cash and investment pool, as the City places no restrictions on the deposit account for the participating funds.

Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated quarterly. Interest income on restricted cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.

Accounts Receivable: The Measure L Fund utilizes the allowance method of accounting for and reporting uncollectible or doubtful accounts. At June 30, 2023, management considered all accounts to be fully collectible and, therefore, no allowance was recorded in the accompanying financial statements.

Accounts Payable: Certain costs are incurred by the Measure L Fund during the current reporting period but are not paid until after the beginning of the next fiscal period. These costs are reported as accounts payable in the financial statements. The Measure L Fund current accounts payable balance is $0 as of June 30, 2023.

Net Position: Net position represents the residual interest of all assets after liabilities are deducted. In accordance with GASB Statement No. 34, the fund equity section on the Statement of Net Position was combined to report total net position and present it in three broad components: net investment in capital assets, restricted, and unrestricted. Net position, net investment in capital assets, includes capital assets net of accumulated depreciation and outstanding principal balances of debt attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. Net position is restricted when constraints are imposed by third parties or by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. All other net position is unrestricted. The Measure L Fund’s policy is to first apply restricted resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available.

Management’s Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions.

These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

MEASURE L - CITY OF MODESTO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
11 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources: Pursuant to GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position, and GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the Measure L Fund recognizes deferred outflows and inflows of resources.

In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. A deferred outflow of resources is defined as a consumption of net position by the Measure L Fund that is applicable to a future reporting period.

In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. A deferred inflow of resources is defined as an acquisition of net position by the Measure L Fund that is applicable to a future reporting period. Deferred inflows of resources reported by the Measure L Fund consist of intergovernmental revenues earned, but not yet received.

Fund Balance: In the fund financial statements, in accordance with GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, governmental funds report fund balance as nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned or unassigned based primarily on the extent to which the Measure L Fund is bound to honor constraints on how specific amounts can be spent. • Nonspendable – Amounts that are not in spendable form (such as inventory) or are required to be maintained intact. The Measure L Fund did not have any nonspendable resources as of June 30, 2023. • Restricted – Amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers (such as grantors, bondholders, and higher levels of government), through constitutional provisions, or by enabling legislation. The Measure L Fund considers all of its resources to be restricted. • Committed – Amounts constrained to specific purposes by the Measure L Fund itself, using its highest level of decision-making authority (City Council). To be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the City Council takes the same highest-level action to remove or change the constraint. The Measure L Fund did not have any committed resources as of June 30, 2023. • Assigned – Amounts the Measure L Fund intends to use for a specific purpose. Intent can be expressed by the Measure L Fund or by an official or body to which the City Council delegates the authority. The Measure L Fund did not have any assigned resources as of June 30, 2023. • Unassigned – Amounts that are available for any purpose. The Measure L Fund did not have any unassigned resources as of June 30, 2023.

The Measure L Fund establishes and modifies or rescinds fund balance commitments by passage of an ordinance or policy. This is typically done through adoption and amendment of the budget. A fund balance commitment is further indicated in the budget as a designation or commitment of the fund, such as approved contracts. Assigned fund balance is established by the Measure L Fund through adoption or amendment of the budget or future year budget plan as intended for a specific purpose. The Measure L Fund’s policy is to first apply restricted, committed or assigned resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted, committed or assigned and unassigned fund balance is available.

Governmental Accounting Standards Update: During the year ending June 30, 2023, the Measure L Fund implemented the following standards with no financial impact:

GASB Statement No. 91 – Conduit Debt Obligations. The requirements of this statement are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Subsequent to issuance, GASB Statement No. 95 postponed the requirements of this statement to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. #16..

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON

COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN

ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS AND THE MEASURE L PROGRAM To the Policy Board
Stanislaus Council of Governments
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and certain provisions of the Measure L: Local Road First Transportation Funding Measure (the Measure L Program), issued by the Stanislaus Council of Governments acting as the Stanislaus County Transportation Authority, the financial statements of the governmental activities and major fund of the Measure L Fund of the City of Modesto (the Measure L Fund), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, the budgetary comparison schedule for the special revenue fund and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Measure L Fund’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 15, 2023.

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Measure L Fund’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Measure L Fund’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Measure L Fund’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements, on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Measure L Fund’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements.
#16..
- 1730 -
15 However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of This Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

To the Policy Board of
Stanislaus Council of Governments

We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities and major fund of the Measure L Fund of the City of Modesto, California (the Measure L Fund) pertaining to certain provisions of Measure L: Local Road First Transportation Funding Measure, (the Measure L Program) issued by the Stanislaus Council of Governments acting as the Stanislaus County Transportation Authority as of for the year ended June 30, 2023, the budgetary comparison schedule for the special revenue fund and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the basic financial statements of the Measure L Fund. Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing, as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated September 9, 2023. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.

Significant Audit Matters
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the Measure L Fund are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new significant accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed during 2023. We noted no transactions entered into by the Measure L Fund during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.

Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. There were no sensitive estimates affecting the financial statements.

The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.

Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.

Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. No misstatements were detected as a result of audit procedures that were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to each opinion unit’s financial statements taken as a whole.

Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report.

We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.

Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated December 15, 2023.

Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the Measure L Fund’s financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.

Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the Measure L Fund’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.

Other Matters
We were engaged to report on the Schedule of Expenditures by project, the supplemental schedule, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves.

Restriction on Use
This information is intended solely for the information and use of the Policy Board and management of the City of Modesto and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Sincerely,

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

February 27, 2024
Date: February 3, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Brandon Gillespie, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: First Amendment to Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Consultant Agreement with Research Triangle Institute
CONTACT: Chris Adams, Captain, [email protected], 209-572-9500 DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving a First Amendment to the Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Agreement with Research Triangle Institute, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, for the Board of State and Community Corrections' California Violence Intervention and Prevention Grant Program to expand to include the Board of State and Community Corrections’ Organized Retail Theft Prevention Grant Program for a revised total amount not to exceed $408,839 and extending the term of the agreement from December 12, 2025, to June 12, 2027. (Funding Source: Police Grants)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item is related to the adopted City Council 2020-2025 Strategic Plan focus area of Quality of Life under Goal - Improve Community Safety.

BACKGROUND:

On December 13, 2022, by Resolution No. 2022-488, Council approved an agreement with Research Triangle Institute (RTI) International for independent evaluations services related to the Board of State and Community Corrections California Violence Intervention and Prevention Grant Program (BSCC CalVIP). This agreement is ongoing and provides for grant evaluation, research, and reporting services for the CalVIP grant awarded to the City of Modesto.

Since that time, the Modesto Police Department has applied for and been awarded another grant from the Board of State and Community Corrections. In September of 2023, the Modesto Police Department was awarded $6,003,419 in Organized Retail Theft Prevention (ORT) Grant funds from the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) and the grant was accepted by the Council by Resolution No. 2023-431. The grant funding specifies the need for a local evaluation to be completed for reporting to BSCC the progress and impact of the grant funding.

The local evaluator is required to evaluate the specific BSCC guidelines, to ensure objectives and deliverables are met, and to make a clear, logical, project process evaluation report. This #17..

includes process and outcome measures, number of operations, estimated value of stolen property recovered, staffing, effectiveness.

DISCUSSION:

Since December of 2022, the City of Modesto has been in an agreement with RTI for evaluation of the CalVIP Grant from BSCC. RTI has fulfilled all their obligations of the agreement to date and has proven to be a trusted and reliable vendor for grant evaluation, research, and reporting services.

As part of the BSCC funding for the ORT Grant, grantees are required to set aside at least $75,000 but not more than five percent (5%) of the total grant award for data collection and evaluation efforts, including data collection for quarterly progress reports and statewide evaluation and the development of the Local Evaluation Plan and Local Evaluation Report. As part of the Police Department’s application and subsequent award, $255,000 was set aside within the grant funding to fulfill this grant requirement.

RTI is an independent, nonprofit research institute with a proven ability to perform the BSCC required services. RTI has been fully vetted and valued by the Federal General Services Administration (GSA). RTI provided a proposed scope of work in a Technical Proposal and cost in a Business Proposal. The scope of work required for the BSCC ORT Grant for the data collection and evaluation requirement is similar in scope to that of the work RTI is already conducting for the BSCC CalVIP Grant. This includes reporting, statistical and evaluation measurements, and our final grant evaluation, measuring the overall impact our efforts provide for a safer community and crime reduction. The evaluation of the ORT Grant will include these items as well as process and outcome measures, number of operations estimated, value of stolen property recovered, staffing, and effectiveness.

Because of the current agreement with RTI International and their ability to meet the needs of BSCC reporting, coupled with the similarity in scope of work, making a modification to the current agreement would be the most seamless and efficient solution.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to be formally bid. However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204(f) “Where the Purchasing Manager, in her discretion, determines that it is appropriate to amend the services or goods provided under an existing agreement to include additional similar goods or services, of limited quantity or scope, in order to increase efficiency and avoid delays or disruptions to City projects or services.” Amending the existing agreement with RTI for Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Services qualifies for this exemption as RTI is already performing these services for the CalVIP grant which is a BSCC grant and expanding the scope to include the ORT grant which is also a BSCC grant will help the Police Department avoid delays related to the reporting and evaluation requirements of both grants and increase efficiency as the evaluation needs for both grants are similar in nature and format.

FISCAL IMPACT:

BSCC ORT grantees were required to set aside at least $75,000 but not more than five percent (5%) of the total grant award for data collection and evaluation efforts, including data collection for quarterly progress reports and statewide evaluation and the development of the Local #17..

Evaluation Plan and Local Evaluation Report. As such, the Police Department set aside $255,000 in the grant budget for grant evaluation and data collection services. Project 101537 has been established for the BSCC ORT Grant and $255,000 is budgeted in Appropriation Unit C with a task of Data Collection/Evaluation. There is no impact to the General Fund for these services.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

Due to time constraints this item was not presented to the committee.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution approving a First Amendment to the Agreement with Research Triangle Institute for Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Services by increasing the agreement by $253,884 from $154,955 to a new total amount not to exceed $408,839 and extending the term of the agreement from December 12, 2025, to June 12, 2027; and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the Amendment.

2 WHEREAS, the Modesto Police Department seeks approval to increase the funds available on the agreement by $253,884 and extend the term of the agreement to June 12, 2027; and
WHEREAS, Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to be formally bid. However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204(f) “Where the Purchasing Manager, in her discretion, determines that it is appropriate to amend the services or goods provided under an existing agreement to include additional similar goods or services, of limited quantity or scope, in order to increase efficiency and avoid delays or disruptions to City projects or services.” Amending the existing agreement with RTI for Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Services qualifies for this exemption as RTI is already performing these services for the CalVIP grant which is a BSCC grant and expanding the scope to include the ORT grant which is also a BSCC grant will help the Police Department avoid delays related to the reporting and evaluation requirements of both grants and increase efficiency as the evaluation needs for both grants are similar in nature and format.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Modesto that it hereby approves a First Amendment to the agreement with Research Triangle Institute for Grant Evaluation, Research and Reporting Services by increasing the agreement by $253,884 from $154,955 to a new total amount not to exceed $408,839 and extending the term of the agreement from December 12, 2025, to June 12, 2027.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Manager, or his designee is hereby authorized to execute the Amendment, in a form approved by the City Attorney. #17..

Evaluation of The City of Modesto Police Department and Community-Based Partners’ Project

SUCCESS
RTI International Statement of Work and Deliverables
October 26, 2022
RTI International is an independent, nonprofit research institute dedicated to improving the human condition. We combine scientific rigor and technical expertise in social and laboratory sciences, engineering, and international development to deliver solutions to the critical needs of clients worldwide. Headquartered in North Carolina, RTI’s staff of 6,000 have expertise in numerous disciplines including policing, violence prevention, program evaluation, community engagement, racial and community justice. The proposed study will be led by staff from RTI’s Justice Practice Area (JPA), which focuses on strategies to prevent and respond to crime and violence and to seek effective, efficient, and fair solutions for promoting safety in communities.

RTI International’s scope of work will include the following activities and deliverables:
• Evaluation Planning

o RTI will participate in a planning meeting with the entire Project SUCCESS team to discuss RTI’s role on the project and to set up expectations and objectives of individual meetings with each project partner / stakeholder. o RTI will participate in separate planning meetings with each Project SUCCESS partner who will be responsible for implementing project activities and collecting data around the implementation and outcomes of those activities. The goal of these meetings will be to discuss in detail the various programmatic activities each partner will be responsible for implementing, the goals of each of those activities, and the types and format of data (e.g., survey, administrative, qualitative, etc.) they will collect that will facilitate RTI’s evaluation of Project SUCCESS activities on key project outcomes/goals (e.g., reduced violent crime in the target area, improve police-community interactions, reduced school-based mental health-related incidents, reduced recidivism among previously incarcerated individuals, improved perceptions of safety and reduced levels of fear of crime among individuals in the target area, reduced violent crime among juvenile offenders in the target area). An additional goal of these meetings will be to discuss how and when data will be transferred to RTI in a secure and deidentified manner.
 From these meetings, RTI will work with the Project SUCCESS team to develop a logic model which will help guide the evaluation.  RTI will develop an evaluation plan that will document the evaluation design, data sources, and outcome measures.

- 1748 -
 RTI will submit the local evaluation plan to the BSCC on January 3, 2023. o RTI will convene a series (i.e., approximately 3-5) of data transferring, processing, and analysis planning meetings internally among the RTI evaluation team to coordinate the receipt of datasets from each partner, how each dataset will be cleaned and prepared for analysis and develop an analysis plan for each dataset to examine the various impacts of Project SUCCESS outcomes on key project outcomes.
 RTI will produce a quality and data management plan to document this information
o RTI will develop a formal data collection and analysis plan that describes the inventory of datasets RTI will receive throughout the life of the project, when each dataset will be transferred by each partner to RTI, the expected types of data cleaning and processing that will be conducted by RTI to prepare each dataset for analysis, the anticipated types of analysis that will be conducted for each dataset, and the types of research questions that will be answered by the analysis of each dataset. The document will also describe RTI’s processes for ensuring all data can be transferred to RTI securely and in deidentified manner, with specific protocols that each partner will follow when transferring datasets to RTI. This document will be sent to the project director at the city of Modesto for their review and approval, and any necessary revisions will be made to the document by RTI until the plan is approved.
o RTI will establish a system (e.g., a secure file transfer protocol) to facilitate the secure transfer of datasets by each project partner to RTI according to the procedures and schedules that were approved by the City of Modesto in the data collection and analysis plan.
• Data Processing

o RTI will review and clean each dataset upon delivery (e.g., encoding, destringing, labeling variables, creating and applying value labels, recoding variables as necessary to identify valid or invalid missing values, combine categories, or create new categories or new variables) to prepare each one for the analysis stage o As necessary, RTI will merge or append datasets with other datasets transferred from the partners to RTI using unique identifiers

- 1749 -
o RTI will run basic descriptive statistics on each dataset variable to ensure all variables have been processed appropriately and prepared for analysis, and conduct any additional processing as needed
• Analysis

o RTI will conduct analysis, as specified in the analysis plan, on each dataset to effectively and efficiently address the project’s core goals and research questions using both descriptive (i.e., summary statistics for key variables including Means, Medians, Standard Deviations, Ranges, etc.) and inferential analysis (e.g., interrupted time-series analysis, regression analysis, latent class analysis, difference in difference models)

o RTI will send results and documentation of methodology to internal statistical and methodological experts at RTI to ensure all data processing and analysis has been conducted with high fidelity and based on those reviews will conduct any additional manipulations or analysis the reviewers deemed appropriate

• Reporting

o RTI will develop a comprehensive final report for the City of Modesto that describes in detail the results of analyses conducted on each dataset and describe what evidence was collected during the analysis stage to address the study’s core research questions and to support various hypotheses corresponding to the project’s research questions. The report will also describe limitations of the analyses and whether future research (e.g., assuming access to different or additional types of data) is necessary to better address one or more research questions
o If requested, RTI will assist with developing a presentation that summarizes the findings of the evaluation
o RTI will assist the City of Modesto with reporting requirements of the grant DocuSign Envelope ID: 1A0044C3-6BA5-4357-836D-0EE572F8BA4B DocuSign Envelope ID: A905CA26-FF1F-41F3-A41B-1A096ABED15E #17..

RTI Budget Narrative
Overview
RTI’s budget for the Evaluation of the SUCCESS Program is presented in Time and Materials format.

The total RTI budget is $154,955. This 36-month budget reflects RTI’s role as the local evaluation partner for the Modesto Police Department for their California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) grant program entitled, Project SUCCESS (Serving and Understanding our Community with Compassion and Education for Safer Streets). The purpose of Project SUCCESS is to strengthen police-community relationships, provide services for early intervention, education, and family and mental health services and reduce crime and fear of crime in Southwest Modesto. As local evaluation partner, RTI will evaluate whether the program meets its stated goals, objectives, and outcome measures. The accompanying statement of work and deliverables provides details about key aspects of RTI’s work as the local evaluation partner.

Key Budget Assumptions
The budget estimate is based on the following general assumptions:
 Data required for the evaluation will be made available and/or collected by Modesto PD and their partners with RTI doing no primary data collection to support the evaluation. RTI will work with Modesto PD to specify all needed data and sources for these data at the start of the project.  RTI will have a heavier level of effort in Year 1 to plan and setup the evaluation and in Year 3 to conduct the analysis and prepare final reports. Year 2 will be minimal effort from the local evaluation perspective as Modesto PD will be collecting data during Year 2 primarily.  RTI does not plan to have staff not located in Modesto PD travel to Modesto for site visits.

RTI Labor
RTI's Time & Material labor rates have been deemed fair and reasonable by the federal government.

Labor hours by year for RTI staff are provided below along with descriptions of each staff member’s role.

Dr. Hendrix has also served as the lead analyst, project director, or co-PI for many other tasks and projects funded by NIJ and the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) pertaining to school emergency planning and response to violence, school transportation, law enforcement data and technology, sexual assault kit processing, and incident-based crime reporting systems.

Nicole Johnson, MA, Research Analyst, will assist with designing and implementing the evaluation, as well as with data analysis. Ms. Johnson is a public health analyst in RTI’s Policing Research Program and has experience using large-scale criminal data sets and open sources to examine various questions pertaining to crime and justice.

She is particularly interested in using quantitative methods to explore issues related to crime prevention, place-based criminology, policing, and terrorism.

Carlee Ruiz, MA, Research Analyst, is responsible for data management and analysis. Ms. Ruiz is also a resident of Modesto and will be a primary point of contact between Modesto PD and RTI International.

Carlee is a public health analyst in the RTI’s Policing Research Program, where she works on projects involving national crime databases, evaluating local law enforcement programs, and assisting with data management of opioid epidemic programs. She has 4 years of experience working as a crime analyst with a local law enforcement agency, where her responsibilities included preparing analytical reports, maintaining and evaluating crime and calls for service data, assisting in homicide and high-violence cases, and tracking and assessing policing initiatives and technologies.

Brian Aagaard, MA, Advisor, will provide guidance to the project from the perspective of implementing evaluations in local jurisdictions. Brian is a public health analyst in RTI International’s Policing Research Program, and has worked extensively managing and analyzing data and clearly communicating analytical results to law enforcement partners. Mr. Aagaard has worked with law enforcement at local, county, state, and federal levels. He is particularly interested in the dynamics of law enforcement–community relations and related social issues. He has continued his professional training in geographic information systems, advanced crime analysis techniques, intelligence analysis, analytical investigative techniques, emerging trends in law enforcement, and new areas of social issues.

James Trudeau, PhD, Senior Advisor, Dr. Trudeau is a Chief Scientist in RTI International’s Justice Practice Area. Dr. Trudeau led or co-led three consecutive evaluations of grant programs in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) portfolio of programs to provide behavioral health and supportive services to people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. He oversees RTI’s portfolio of projects funded under the National Institute of Justice’s (NIJ’s) Comprehensive School Safety Initiative and is a principal investigator or senior advisor on studies of school-based mental health services, interventions to reduce discipline disparities, and bullying and safety on the school bus.

TBD Financial Analyst provides oversight of the budget. This includes supporting the initial setup of the project, providing ongoing financial review and analysis for proper charging and accuracy, forecasting of costs, review of invoices, and preparation of contractually required financial reports. Financials analysts support a portfolio of multiple projects. If client reporting is contractually required, finance prefers to standardize reporting using existing systems for efficiency purposes. RTI is exempt, by name re OMB A-122 and is permitted to operate under “Commercial Cost Principles’. Our Federally approved cost accounting system allows direct charging by project financial analysts.

Budget Narrative
Overview
RTI International’s budget for the Modesto Organized Retail Theft and Auto Theft Program Evaluation is presented in time and materials format. The total RTI budget is $253,884. This 40-month budget (February 1, 2024, to June 1, 2027) reflects RTI as the local evaluation partner for the Modesto Police Department (MPD) for its Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) Organized Retail Theft Prevention Grant Program. The purposes of Modesto’s program are to reduce organized retail theft, auto theft, and auto accessories theft within the target areas in Modesto and to improve relationships and communications with businesses and the community. As local evaluation partner, RTI will evaluate whether the program meets its stated goals, objectives, and outcome measures. The accompanying statement of work provides details about key aspects of RTI’s work as the local evaluation partner.

Key Budget Assumptions
RTI’s budget estimate is based on the following general assumptions:
• Law enforcement data, prosecution data, and retailer shrinkage reports are all data that we anticipate may be required for an effective evaluation. We assume that MPD and affiliated partners will provide the required data. RTI will work with MPD to specify all needed data and sources for these data at the start of the project. • We have budgeted for two staff members to travel to Modesto once a year to meet with retailers, community members, or both.

Direct Labor
Labor Rate Escalation
RTI’s time & materials labor rates escalate at 4.5% each year.

Travel is included in Years 1–3 for the Principal Investigator and Project Director to meet with the police department and to attend a retailer or community meeting once during each year of the grant. In addition to the regular virtual meetings, this travel will provide opportunity to engage with command and project staff more directly and to meet with retailers or community members affected by this work. These trips will be developed in consultation with the MPD.

All airfare quotes are obtained through the Bureau of Transportation Statistics website. RTI includes a $25 ticketing fee with all domestic airfare costs. Per diem meals are based on the 2023 GSA domestic travel guidelines. A local tax estimate of 15% is added to the lodging rate for each destination found in the guidelines. For flights, a parking fee of $20/day is budgeted for each traveler to park a personal vehicle at the departing airport, and a fee of $35/trip for each traveler is included for a checked bag.

Evaluation of The City of Modesto Police Department and Community-Based Partners’ Project

SUCCESS
RTI International Statement of Work and Deliverables
October 26, 2022
RTI International is an independent, nonprofit research institute dedicated to improving the human condition. We combine scientific rigor and technical expertise in social and laboratory sciences, engineering, and international development to deliver solutions to the critical needs of clients worldwide. Headquartered in North Carolina, RTI’s staff of 6,000 have expertise in numerous disciplines including policing, violence prevention, program evaluation, community engagement, racial and community justice. The proposed study will be led by staff from RTI’s Justice Practice Area (JPA), which focuses on strategies to prevent and respond to crime and violence and to seek effective, efficient, and fair solutions for promoting safety in communities.

RTI International’s scope of work will include the following activities and deliverables:
• Evaluation Planning

o RTI will participate in a planning meeting with the entire Project SUCCESS team to discuss RTI’s role on the project and to set up expectations and objectives of individual meetings with each project partner / stakeholder. o RTI will participate in separate planning meetings with each Project SUCCESS partner who will be responsible for implementing project activities and collecting data around the implementation and outcomes of those activities. The goal of these meetings will be to discuss in detail the various programmatic activities each partner will be responsible for implementing, the goals of each of those activities, and the types and format of data (e.g., survey, administrative, qualitative, etc.) they will collect that will facilitate RTI’s evaluation of Project SUCCESS activities on key project outcomes/goals (e.g., reduced violent crime in the target area, improve police-community interactions, reduced school-based mental health-related incidents, reduced recidivism among previously incarcerated individuals, improved perceptions of safety and reduced levels of fear of crime among individuals in the target area, reduced violent crime among juvenile offenders in the target area). An additional goal of these meetings will be to discuss how and when data will be transferred to RTI in a secure and deidentified manner.
 From these meetings, RTI will work with the Project SUCCESS team to develop a logic model which will help guide the evaluation.  RTI will develop an evaluation plan that will document the evaluation design, data sources, and outcome measures.

- 1801 -
 RTI will submit the local evaluation plan to the BSCC on January 3, 2023. o RTI will convene a series (i.e., approximately 3-5) of data transferring, processing, and analysis planning meetings internally among the RTI evaluation team to coordinate the receipt of datasets from each partner, how each dataset will be cleaned and prepared for analysis and develop an analysis plan for each dataset to examine the various impacts of Project SUCCESS outcomes on key project outcomes.
 RTI will produce a quality and data management plan to document this information
o RTI will develop a formal data collection and analysis plan that describes the inventory of datasets RTI will receive throughout the life of the project, when each dataset will be transferred by each partner to RTI, the expected types of data cleaning and processing that will be conducted by RTI to prepare each dataset for analysis, the anticipated types of analysis that will be conducted for each dataset, and the types of research questions that will be answered by the analysis of each dataset. The document will also describe RTI’s processes for ensuring all data can be transferred to RTI securely and in deidentified manner, with specific protocols that each partner will follow when transferring datasets to RTI. This document will be sent to the project director at the city of Modesto for their review and approval, and any necessary revisions will be made to the document by RTI until the plan is approved.
o RTI will establish a system (e.g., a secure file transfer protocol) to facilitate the secure transfer of datasets by each project partner to RTI according to the procedures and schedules that were approved by the City of Modesto in the data collection and analysis plan.
• Data Processing

o RTI will review and clean each dataset upon delivery (e.g., encoding, destringing, labeling variables, creating and applying value labels, recoding variables as necessary to identify valid or invalid missing values, combine categories, or create new categories or new variables) to prepare each one for the analysis stage o As necessary, RTI will merge or append datasets with other datasets transferred from the partners to RTI using unique identifiers

- 1802 -
o RTI will run basic descriptive statistics on each dataset variable to ensure all variables have been processed appropriately and prepared for analysis, and conduct any additional processing as needed
• Analysis

o RTI will conduct analysis, as specified in the analysis plan, on each dataset to effectively and efficiently address the project’s core goals and research questions using both descriptive (i.e., summary statistics for key variables including Means, Medians, Standard Deviations, Ranges, etc.) and inferential analysis (e.g., interrupted time-series analysis, regression analysis, latent class analysis, difference in difference models)

o RTI will send results and documentation of methodology to internal statistical and methodological experts at RTI to ensure all data processing and analysis has been conducted with high fidelity and based on those reviews will conduct any additional manipulations or analysis the reviewers deemed appropriate

• Reporting

o RTI will develop a comprehensive final report for the City of Modesto that describes in detail the results of analyses conducted on each dataset and describe what evidence was collected during the analysis stage to address the study’s core research questions and to support various hypotheses corresponding to the project’s research questions. The report will also describe limitations of the analyses and whether future research (e.g., assuming access to different or additional types of data) is necessary to better address one or more research questions
o If requested, RTI will assist with developing a presentation that summarizes the findings of the evaluation
o RTI will assist the City of Modesto with reporting requirements of the grant DocuSign Envelope ID: 1A0044C3-6BA5-4357-836D-0EE572F8BA4B DocuSign Envelope ID: A905CA26-FF1F-41F3-A41B-1A096ABED15E #17..

RTI Budget Narrative
Overview
RTI’s budget for the Evaluation of the SUCCESS Program is presented in Time and Materials format.

The total RTI budget is $154,955. This 36-month budget reflects RTI’s role as the local evaluation partner for the Modesto Police Department for their California Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) grant program entitled, Project SUCCESS (Serving and Understanding our Community with Compassion and Education for Safer Streets). The purpose of Project SUCCESS is to strengthen police-community relationships, provide services for early intervention, education, and family and mental health services and reduce crime and fear of crime in Southwest Modesto. As local evaluation partner, RTI will evaluate whether the program meets its stated goals, objectives, and outcome measures. The accompanying statement of work and deliverables provides details about key aspects of RTI’s work as the local evaluation partner.

Key Budget Assumptions
The budget estimate is based on the following general assumptions:
 Data required for the evaluation will be made available and/or collected by Modesto PD and their partners with RTI doing no primary data collection to support the evaluation. RTI will work with Modesto PD to specify all needed data and sources for these data at the start of the project.  RTI will have a heavier level of effort in Year 1 to plan and setup the evaluation and in Year 3 to conduct the analysis and prepare final reports. Year 2 will be minimal effort from the local evaluation perspective as Modesto PD will be collecting data during Year 2 primarily.  RTI does not plan to have staff not located in Modesto PD travel to Modesto for site visits.

RTI Labor
RTI's Time & Material labor rates have been deemed fair and reasonable by the federal government.

Labor hours by year for RTI staff are provided below along with descriptions of each staff member’s role.

Dr. Hendrix has also served as the lead analyst, project director, or co-PI for many other tasks and projects funded by NIJ and the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) pertaining to school emergency planning and response to violence, school transportation, law enforcement data and technology, sexual assault kit processing, and incident-based crime reporting systems.

Nicole Johnson, MA, Research Analyst, will assist with designing and implementing the evaluation, as well as with data analysis. Ms. Johnson is a public health analyst in RTI’s Policing Research Program and has experience using large-scale criminal data sets and open sources to examine various questions pertaining to crime and justice. Ms. Johnson’s recent work has included using national crime victimization data to examine the potential beneficial and detrimental effects of certain security practices used in U.S. public schools, in addition to using open sources to explore complex decision-making and innovation in a terrorist organization. She is particularly interested in using quantitative methods to explore issues related to crime prevention, place-based criminology, policing, and terrorism.

Carlee Ruiz, MA, Research Analyst, is responsible for data management and analysis. Ms. Ruiz is also a resident of Modesto and will be a primary point of contact between Modesto PD and RTI International.

Carlee is a public health analyst in the RTI’s Policing Research Program, where she works on projects involving national crime databases, evaluating local law enforcement programs, and assisting with data management of opioid epidemic programs. She has 4 years of experience working as a crime analyst with a local law enforcement agency, where her responsibilities included preparing analytical reports, maintaining and evaluating crime and calls for service data, assisting in homicide and high-violence cases, and tracking and assessing policing initiatives and technologies.

Brian Aagaard, MA, Advisor, will provide guidance to the project from the perspective of implementing evaluations in local jurisdictions. Brian is a public health analyst in RTI International’s Policing Research Program, and has worked extensively managing and analyzing data and clearly communicating analytical results to law enforcement partners. Mr. Aagaard has worked with law enforcement at local, county, state, and federal levels. He is particularly interested in the dynamics of law enforcement–community relations and related social issues. He has continued his professional training in geographic information systems, advanced crime analysis techniques, intelligence analysis, analytical investigative techniques, emerging trends in law enforcement, and new areas of social issues.

James Trudeau, PhD, Senior Advisor, Dr. Trudeau is a Chief Scientist in RTI International’s Justice Practice Area. Dr. Trudeau led or co-led three consecutive evaluations of grant programs in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) portfolio of programs to provide behavioral health and supportive services to people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. He oversees RTI’s portfolio of projects funded under the National Institute of Justice’s (NIJ’s) Comprehensive School Safety Initiative and is a principal investigator or senior advisor on studies of school-based mental health services, interventions to reduce discipline disparities, and bullying and safety on the school bus.

TBD Financial Analyst provides oversight of the budget. This includes supporting the initial setup of the project, providing ongoing financial review and analysis for proper charging and accuracy, forecasting of costs, review of invoices, and preparation of contractually required financial reports. Financials analysts support a portfolio of multiple projects. If client reporting is contractually required, finance prefers to standardize reporting using existing systems for efficiency purposes. RTI is exempt, by name re OMB A-122 and is permitted to operate under “Commercial Cost Principles’. Our Federally approved cost accounting system allows direct charging by project financial analysts.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

February 27, 2024
Date: January 25, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jeremy Rogers, Director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods SUBJECT: Third Amendment with PerfectMind for Recreation and Facility Management Software
CONTACT: Jeremy Rogers, Director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods, [email protected], 209-577-5347
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Third Amendment with PerfectMind for the Use and Maintenance of the Recreation and Facility Management Software to a revised total amount of $205,560 and extending the term of the Agreement from January 26, 2024, to January 26, 2029. (Funding Source: General Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

The recommended action supports the City’s 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Initiatives: build and promote a recognizable and desirable identity for the City of Modesto.

BACKGROUND:

The City of Modesto’s Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department (PRND) offers a wide variety of recreational programming and use of its parks and facilities to the community. Each year, staff register thousands in recreation courses and make nearly 1,500 reservations for parks and recreation facilities each year. Recreation courses enhance each participant’s quality of life, and the facility and park reservations create a positive impact in our neighborhoods.

In 2001, PRND upgraded an aging recreation support system with a then state-of-the-art recreation management solution called CLASS. Staff used the software to register 64,433 participants in recreation courses and made 160,537 bookings in recreation facilities, receiving more than $9.3 million in revenue from 2001 through 2017. CLASS required participants to call or go to the PRN customer service desk to complete registrations and rentals. In 2017, CLASS was discontinued and no longer provided maintenance or technical support to its customers.

In 2017, by Resolution No. 2017-243, Council approved and awarded the Recreation and Facility Management Software agreement to PerfectMind. The five-year maintenance contract, through June 26, 2022, was an amount not to exceed $100,210 including an additional cost for hardware upgrades and software integration costs in the amount of $22,758 for an overall total #18..

cost of $122,968. The PerfectMind software has numerous features that have streamlined reservation and registration processes including a user friendly and intuitive interface, compatibility with City finance software, and extractable data with customizable reports. Staff build courses directly into the software and manage registration, occupancy, and participant communications.

In 2018, the City Manager approved the first amendment to the PerfectMind Agreement extending the term an additional 6 months to January 26, 2023, and reducing the overall cost to $96,210. In 2022, by Resolution No. 2022-256, Council approved the payment of hardware and software maintenance support agreements for fiscal year 2022-2023, authorizing the City Manager to approve the second amendment to the PerfectMind Agreement extending the term one additional year to January 26, 2024, and increasing the agreement amount $16,550 with an updated overall cost of $112,760.

DISCUSSION:

Staff use the current PerfectMind recreation course registration and facility management software system for its recreational program registrations and park and facility reservations.

PerfectMind is utilized by the PRND at the PRND customer service desk, recreation facilities and the City website for reservations and registration on a daily basis. Since its inception, PerfectMind has been used to register over 15,000 recreation program participants, 150,000 member visits, and 10,000 rental contracts.

Staff reviewed the efficiency and interface of the PerfectMind system and have determined that it meets the department needs for park, recreation and facility administrative services, course development services, and instructional/training/troubleshooting support. Upcoming features of online facility rentals and insurance approvals are under development. These capabilities will streamline the reservation process and reduce staff time required for reservations.

This amendment will extend the term of the agreement for two years, with three one-year options for extension. During this amendment period, staff will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of the PerfectMind Software and submit a Request for Proposal with ample time for review, selection and implementation should a new software be selected.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to be formally bid. However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204(f) where the Purchasing Manager, in his or her discretion, determines that it is appropriate to amend the services or goods provided under an existing agreement to include additional similar goods or services, of limited quantity or scope, to increase efficiency and avoid delays or disruptions to City projects or services. The renewal terms in the original agreement limits pricing increases to a maximum of 30% for subsequent extensions resulting in significant cost savings.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The anticipated cost of $92,800 will be absorbed within the current and subsequent PRND General Fund operating budgets.

Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Third Amendment, the Original Agreement will be extended on the same terms and conditions for an additional two (2) year period (such period, the “Extended Term” and together with the Original Term, the “Term”), which will begin immediately on the expiry of the Original Term. At the expiration of the Extended Term, the Term will be automatically renewed for an additional one (1) year period (“Additional Term”), up to three (3) successive one year periods unless a party provides written notice to the other party of the first party’s intention not to renew, at least ninety days before the expiry of the then-current Term.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

February 27, 2024
Date: February 6, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jeremy Rogers, Director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department SUBJECT: Award Construction Contract for Graceada Park Pool Fencing Replacement Project
CONTACT: Nathan Houx, Parks Planning and Development Manager, [email protected], 209-571-5526
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Plans and Specifications for the Graceada Park Pool Fencing Replacement Project, accepting the Bid and Awarding a Construction Contract to Joe’s Landscaping and Concrete, Inc., of Newman, CA, in amount not to exceed $167,991. (Funding Source: American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), General Fund, Parks Fund) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item is consistent with the following 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Area of Focus: Quality of Life and Governance and Service Delivery.

BACKGROUND:

Graceada Park is one of the oldest parks within the City of Modesto. The Graceada Park pool was first constructed in 1969. At its peak, the City had more than twenty-two community pools distributed within the City’s park system. The Graceada Park pool is the last remaining City owned and operated pool. A community-driven service group reconstructed the pool and pumping system in 2018. It was evident the pool perimeter fencing was in poor condition during the renovation, but insufficient funds were available to replace the fencing at the time.

In 2019, the Graceada Park pool perimeter fencing was evaluated, and it was determined the fencing material had exceeded its life span and has deteriorated beyond repair. Additionally, the current pool perimeter fencing configuration does not meet American Disability Act (ADA) accessibility standards, nor does it provide access for park maintenance service vehicles.

This park improvement project will address safety and access concerns at the Graceada Park Pool site and enhance public enjoyment and satisfaction of the park pool amenities; by correcting ADA access deficiencies, expanding public use capacity, and providing better maintenance service access.

City Council, February 27, 2024
Award Construction Contract for Graceada Park Pool Fencing Replacement Project

Page 2 of 4 ends

DISCUSSION:

The project was advertised for bids on December 14, 2023. Bids were publicly opened on January 30, 2024, pursuant to City Charter Section 1307, and four bids were received. Joe’s Landscape and Concrete, Inc., of Newman, CA, was determined to be the responsible bidder with the lowest responsive bid. The bid tabulation is attached, and a summary of the bids is below:

The bid analysis is:

Number of bids received 4
Number of bids within 10% of engineer’s estimate 2
Number of bids above the engineer’s estimate 3
Number of bids below the engineer’s estimate 1
Percent low bid is below the engineer’s estimate -1.06% Joe’s Landscaping and Concrete, Inc., of Newman, CA was 1.06% below the engineer’s estimate. The next lowest bid was 2.36% above the engineer’s estimate. The highest bid was 56.04% above the engineer’s estimate. Bidder competition and participation was evident as the City received four bids.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to be formally bid.

The award of contract for the construction of the Graceada Park Pool Fencing Replacement Project, to Joe’s Landscaping and Concrete, Inc., of Newman, CA, conforms to Modesto Municipal Code, 8-3.203. Therefore, staff recommends awarding the contract to Joe’s Landscaping and Concrete, Inc., of Newman, CA.

The City’s “Change Order Approval Policy” enacted by Council Resolution No. 2023-405 on September 12, 2023, established a contract change order authority of 10% for construction contracts up to $10,000,000. Therefore, staff is requesting the Engineering Services Director’s Authority to issue change orders of 10% ($15,272) of the construction contract amount.

While the contingency policy is utilized for each construction contract awarded by the City, it is not written into each contract, nor is it a guaranteed amount included in the final compensation to the contractor. Prior to bidding a project, staff works diligently to ensure that all projects and bid packages contain well-defined scopes of work and that all projects stay within budget.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for this project is budgeted in Capital Improvement Program (CIP) account #101428 (Graceada Park Fence). The project will require a budget adjustment allocating $50,000 of General Fund – Parks Operating Cost Center salary savings and $39,407 of Parks Fund to fully fund the project. The project’s revenue and expense budget shall be as outlined below:

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

February 27, 2024
Date: February 6, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jeremy Rogers, Director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods Department SUBJECT: Playground Equipment Purchase for Lakewood Park, Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park, Riverside Park, Aqueduct Park, and City Gate Children’s Park CONTACT: Nathan Houx, Parks Planning and Development Manager, [email protected], 209-571-5526
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Purchase of Playground Equipment for Lakewood Park, Riverside Park, and City Gate Children’s Park from Ross Recreational Equipment Company, Inc., of Santa Rosa, CA, and for Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park, and Aqueduct Park from Miracle Recreation – PlayPower, Inc., of Huntersville, NC, for a total amount not to exceed $959,394. (Funding Source:

Measure H)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item is consistent with the following 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Area of Focus: Quality of Life and Governance and Service Delivery.

BACKGROUND:

With an estimated $70+ million in deferred maintenance in our park system, many park amenities are severely in need of replacement. Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods staff established a plan to systematically address the deferred maintenance. In June 2023, Council approved the FY 2023-2024 budget, which included $6,100,000 of Measure H funding for deferred park maintenance. As part of the deferred park maintenance allocation, $2,520,000, is budgeted for the replacement of playground structures at eight (8) City parks. Staff is still working on the design of two (2) of these playgrounds (Coleman Brown Park and Davis Park), but is prepared to purchase play equipment for the other six (6) playgrounds.

For the first round of playground renovations, staff sought public input on the playground design.

On November 17, 2023, via the City website, voting for the preferred design of four playgrounds located at Lakewood Park, Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park, and Riverside Park was opened.

The public was able to vote on a new design for each playground. Voting lasted until December 8, 2023, and a total of 1,290 votes were received for this first round of voting. #20..

For the second round of playground renovations, staff sought public input on the playground design for Aqueduct Park and City Gate Children’s Park. On January 5, 2024, via the City website, voting for the preferred design of the two playgrounds, was opened. The public was able to vote on a new design for each playground. Voting lasted until January 19, 2024, and a total of 193 votes were received.

DISCUSSION:

National Purchasing Partners, LLC., (NPP) analysts streamline the procurement process by developing RFPs for national competitive solicitations that meet or exceed local requirements.

The competitive process is continually refined to best meet agency needs and allows NPP to offer exceptional products from nationally acclaimed vendors.

On October 14, 2020, NPP issued Request for Proposals (RFP) # 2060 for Park, Playground and Recreation Equipment advertised in the USA Today1, The Oregon Daily Journal2, the City of Oregon website3, Find RFP website4 and NPP website5. The Original RFP close date was November 20, 2020, but due to COVID-19 this date was extended to January 15, 2021, to allow adequate time for review and response for all eligible vendors. On January 15, 2021, ten (10) proposals were received, and eight (8) contracts were awarded for Park, Playground and Recreation Equipment.

Ross Recreational Equipment Company, Inc. (Ross Recreation) was awarded contract #PS21070 effective March 22, 2021 through March 22, 2027. Through this contract, Ross Recreation provided quotes for the purchase of playground equipment for Lakewood Park, Riverside Park, and City Gate Children’s Park in the total amount of $413,848. Due to fluctuating material costs and potential minor design adjustments, staff recommends Council approve a 10% contingency budget in the amount of $41,385 for a total cost not to exceed $455,233, for Lakewood Park, Riverside Park and City Gate Children’s Park.

Sourcewell is a cooperative agency which streamlines the procurement process by developing RFB’s or RFP’s for national competitive solicitations that meet or exceed local requirements. The competitive process is continually refined to best meet agency needs and allows Sourcewell to offer exceptional products from nationally acclaimed vendors.

On November 10, 2020, Sourcewell issued Request for Proposals (RFP) # 010521 for playground and water play equipment with related accessories and services advertised on the Sourcewell website,6 USA Today7, The Oregon Daily Journal8, The Public Group9, The state media company10, The New York state contract reporter11, Alberta Purchasing Connection12, and The 1 USA

Page 3 of 5 ends

Salt Lake Tribune13. On January 5, 2021, proposals were electronically opened, and the list of all Proposers was made publicly available in the Sourcewell Procurement Portal. Twenty-five (25) proposals were received and based on the Sourcewell Proposal review committee and criteria outlined in the RFP, six (6) contracts were awarded14.

Miracle Recreation – PlayPower, Inc. (Miracle) was awarded contract #010521-LTS effective February 15, 2021, through February 17, 2025. Through this contract, Miracle provided quotes for the purchase of playground equipment for Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park and Aqueduct Park in the amount of $458,328. Due to fluctuating material cost and potential minor design adjustments, staff recommends Council approve a 10% contingency budget in the amount of $45,833 for a total cost not to exceed $504,161, for Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park and Aqueduct Park.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment or contractual services, to be formally bid. However, exceptions to the formal bidding process are granted in MMC 8-3.204(d) “Where the Purchasing Manager, in his or her discretion, determines that a process other than the formal bid procedure set for in Section 8-3.203 will result in procurement for the City at the lowest possible cost commensurate with the desired quality.” In addition, MMC 8-3.202(h) encourages the Purchasing Manager to join with the State of California and other units of government in cooperative purchasing plans when the best cost savings interest of the City could be served. Both requirements were met based on the Competitive Bidding Process selected by NPP and Sourcewell.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for this project is budgeted in the Capital Improvement Project #101517 (PRN – 2023/24 Deferred Maintenance – Measure H). In addition to the purchase of play equipment, site work is necessary for installation of the play equipment. Staff is currently in the process of finalizing construction documents to prepare a Public Works bid to obtain a contractor for installation. Staff expects to return to Council to award a construction contract for this work in the next couple months. It is estimated that the site work and installation for these six (6) playgrounds will be about $850,000. Funding for both the purchase and installation of these six (6) playgrounds is budgeted and available in CIP #101517.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

On August 14, 2023, this project was one of several park construction projects presented to the Safety & Communities Committee for consideration to minimize the time between bidding and Council award.

CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:

City staff prepared a Notice of Exemption No. EA/PR&N 2024-01 and determined the project is categorically exempt from CEQA due to the fact that it consists of the replacement of existing play equipment which has substantially the same purpose, is located at the same site and is not anticipated to significantly increase the use of the park.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution approving the Competitive Bidding Processes of National Purchasing Partners (NPP), League of Oregon Cities, with Ross Recreational Equipment Company, Inc. and Sourcewell (formerly National Joint Powers Alliance) who completed the bid and the State of California Multiple Award Schedule (CMAS) with Miracle Recreation – PlayPower, Inc. for the Purchase and Delivery of playground equipment for Lakewood Park, Riverside Park, Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park, Aqueduct Park, and City Gate Children’s Park, for a total amount not to exceed $959,394, and authorizing the Purchasing Manager, or her designee, to issue the Purchase Order.

IMPORTANT

PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR PROPOSAL
SOLICITATIONS FOR: PARK, PLAYGROUND, & RECREATION EQUIPMENT

1.0 INTENT:

1.1 GENERAL INTENT
The LEAGUE OF OREGON CITIES (“LOC”) serves as the “Lead Contracting Agency” for this solicitation on behalf of its members, and as authorized by the LOC Intergovernmental Agreement, which is an agreement for intergovernmental cooperation among select local Oregon governments and recognized under ORS Chapter 190. LOC, in association with the members of National Purchasing Partners, LLC dba NPPGov (hereinafter referred to as “NPPGov”), comprises a cooperative procurement group. NPPGov membership includes government entities, non-profit organizations across the nation, members of Public Safety GPO, First Responders GPO, and Law Enforcement GPO, Hawaii, and Oregon local government units (ATTACHMENT H), and WIPHE members (ATTACHMENT G), as well as all other government units in all other states, as authorized under the terms of the Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement executed by all Lead Contracting and Participating Agencies (the foregoing list of entities hereinafter referred to as “Participating Agencies”). This procurement group is soliciting proposals from qualified companies (hereinafter referred to as “Proposer”) to enter into a Master Price Agreement for PARK, PLAYGROUND, ANDREATION EQUIPMENT.

The intent of this Interstate Cooperative Procurement Solicitation (hereinafter referred to as “Solicitation” or “RFP”) is to invite Proposers to submit a competitive pricing proposal offering PARK, PLAYGROUND, & RECREATION EQUIPMENT to LOC, which will then be made available to NPPGov members locally and nationwide; to reduce expenses by eliminating multiple requests for proposals and multiple responses by Vendors; and to obtain discounted pricing through volume purchasing. Significant sales potential exists because the Master Price Agreement will be used nationwide which may allow Participating Agencies to forego duplicating the formal solicitation process and expend staff resources. Preferably, the successful Proposer will provide its entire catalog of products and/or services in order that Participating Agencies who wish to access the Master Price Agreement may order a broad range of goods and services as needed.

With the exception of successful local Proposer(s) capable of servicing LOC and Participating Agencies within the state of Oregon, successful Proposer(s) should have a strong national presence for PARK, PLAYGROUND, & RECREATION EQUIPMENT for use by government agencies nationwide.

This Solicitation meets Oregon public contracting requirements (ORS 279A et. seq.) and may not be appropriate under or meet Participating Agencies’ procurement laws. Participating Agencies are urged to seek independent review by their legal counsel to ensure compliance with all local and state solicitation requirements.

1.2 POTENTIAL MARKET
The LOC is publishing this RFP to create publicly awarded contracts for use by its members, which may also benefit the thousands of fellow members of NPPGov, Public Safety GPO, First Responders GPO, and Law Enforcement GPO. These are nationwide programs representing member government agencies in all 50 states. We encourage each Proposer’s response to be a collaborative effort including manufacturer and distributor (when they are not the same company) to ensure nationwide contract #20..
- 1994 -
utilization.

Proposer’s response should also take into consideration the considerable market potential for this Solicitation. Because the successful proposal will be incorporated into a nationwide cooperative procurement program including tens of thousands of state, local government and non-profit participants from all 50 states, the LOC believes that contracts created from this Solicitation will provide vendors with a significant market advantage. Members of NPPGov, Public Safety GPO, First Responders GPO, and Law Enforcement GPO and current vendors who participate in the program indicate the ability to shorten the sale cycle by eliminating the need to complete individual RFP processes is a significant advantage to participation.

The LOC believes that participation in the NPPGov purchasing program benefits both its Participating Agencies and successful Proposers. NPPGov engages with successful proposers who complete the Vendor Administration Agreement through a marketing and sales partnership. This partnership includes (but is not limited to) contract promotion to members, contract administration support to potential customers and live customer phone support.

1.3 REQUIREMENTS

1.3.1 The RFP and resulting Master Price Agreement are anticipated for use by the LOC’s government members, as well as other Participating Agencies across the nation. The LOC has entered into an Intergovernmental (interlocal) Cooperative Purchasing Agreement with other Participating Agencies for the purpose of obtaining Master Price Agreements with various vendors. Interlocal cooperative purchasing agreements allow Participating Agencies to make purchases at the LOC’s accepted proposal price, terms and conditions, provided that the Participating Agency has satisfied all of its local and state cooperative procurement requirements. By submitting a proposal, the Proposer(s) agrees to make the same proposal terms and price, exclusive of any possible rebates, incentives, freight and transportation fees, available to other Participating Agencies. The LOC and NPPGov will not incur any direct liability with respect to specifications, delivery, payment, or any other aspect of purchases by such Participating Agencies or nonprofit institutions. The Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement is incorporated by reference herein and is available upon request — See Attachment A.

The successful Proposer must work directly with the Participating Agencies concerning the placement of orders, disputes, invoicing and payment. The LOC and NPPGov shall not be held liable for any costs or damages incurred by or as a result of the actions of the Vendor or any Participating Agency. Successful Proposers must comply with the state and local laws, rules and regulations in each state and locality where the product or service is provided.

1.3.2 Each Participating Agency shall execute a Participating Agency Endorsement and Authorization included in the Intergovernmental Cooperative Purchasing Agreement. While the terms of the Master Price Agreement shall govern the general pricing terms, each Participating Agency may request modification of the Master Price Agreement in accordance with each Participating Agency’s state and/or local purchasing laws, rules, regulations and procedures, provided said modifications are not material changes. Each Participating Agency may, at its discretion, and upon written agreement by the Participating Agency and Successful Proposer, request additional legal and procedural provisions not included herein that the successful Proposer must adhere to if it wishes to conduct business with said Participating Agency using the Master Price Agreement.

1.3.3 NPPGov, Public Safety GPO, First Responders GPO, and Law Enforcement GPO provide vendor exposure/marketing and contract utilization support for the successful Proposer’s products and services. Successful Proposers servicing the awarded contract to Participating Agencies shall pay a Contract Administration Fee representing 2% percent of actual net sales under the Master Price Agreement as established in the NPPGov Vendor Administration Agreement (available upon request). Administration fee may not be listed or charged as a separate line item to users of the contract. The value of trade-ins or rebates shall not affect the amount of the administration fee paid to NPPGov.
#20..
- 1995 -

1.4 MULTIPLE AWARDS
Multiple awards may be granted to meet the requirements of this Solicitation provided that such awards are differentiated by product make and model, service, and/or distribution regions and capabilities of the successful Proposers. Specifically, the LOC may award separate contracts to Proposers in order to cover all local and national geographical markets, electronic purchasing capabilities, and products and services identified in this Request for Proposal, as well as the diverse and large number of Participating Agencies.

The award of multiple contracts is to be determined upon receipt and review of all proposals, and based upon the general criteria provided herein. The LOC may solicit proposals from local qualified companies with or without a national presence provided that the successful Proposer is able to provide the LOC with the products and services requested. Multiple awards will ensure fulfillment of current and future requirements of the diverse and large number of Participating Agencies. In the event a local Proposer with no national distribution capabilities best meets the proposal selection criteria, multiple local and nationwide responsive proposals may be awarded simultaneously in the best interests of local commerce, compliance with local laws, and the Participating Agencies nationwide.

Proposers should be able to serve the needs of Participating Agencies on a national basis. However, this requirement shall not exclude local Proposers without a national presence that are capable of meeting the requirements of the LOC within the state of Oregon.

1.5 CONTRACT USAGE
The actual utilization of any Master Price Agreement will be at the sole discretion of LOC and the other Participating Agencies. It is the intent of this Request for Proposal and resulting Master Price Agreement that Participating Agencies may buy directly from Successful Proposers without the need for further solicitation. However, Participating Agencies are urged to seek independent review by their legal counsel to ensure compliance with all local and state solicitation requirements as well as the need of further notice prior to utilizing the Master Price Agreement

1.6 BACKGROUND OF NPPGov
NPPGov, owned by two non-profit healthcare organizations, provides group purchasing opportunities and purchasing administrative support for governmental entities and nonprofit institutions within its membership. NPPGov’s membership includes participating public and nonprofit entities across North America.

Such certificates of insurance shall be made available to the Lead Contracting Agency upon 48 hours’ notice. BY SIGNING THE AGREEMENT PAGE THE VENDOR AGREES TO THIS

REQUIREMENT AND FAILURE TO MEET THIS REQUIREMENT WILL RESULT IN CANCELLATION OF THIS MASTER PRICE AGREEMENT.

5.2 All insurance required herein shall be maintained in full force and effect until all work or service required to be performed under the terms of this Agreement is satisfactorily completed and formally accepted.

Any failure to comply with the claim reporting provisions of the insurance policies or any breach of an insurance policy warranty shall not affect coverage afforded under the insurance policies to protect the Lead Contracting Agency. The insurance policies may provide coverage that contains deductibles or self-insured retentions. Such deductible and/or self-insured retentions shall not be applicable with respect to the coverage provided to the Lead Contracting Agency under such policies. Vendor shall be solely responsible for the deductible and/or self-insured retention and the Lead Contracting Agency, at its option, may require Vendor to secure payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions by a surety bond or an irrevocable and unconditional letter of credit.

5.3 Vendor shall carry Workers’ Compensation insurance to cover obligations imposed by federal and state statutes having jurisdiction over Vendor’s employees engaged in the performance of the work or services, as well as Employer’s Liability insurance. Vendor waives all rights against the Lead Contracting Agency and its agents, officers, directors and employees for recovery of damages to the extent these damages are covered by the Workers’ Compensation and Employer’s Liability or commercial umbrella liability insurance obtained by Vendor pursuant to this Agreement.

5.4 Insurance required herein shall not be permitted to expire, be canceled, or materially changed without thirty days (30 days) prior written notice to the Lead Contracting Agency.

ARTICLE 6 – INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS

6.1 Vendor agrees that it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Lead Contracting Agency, its respective officials, directors, employees, members and agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all damages, claims, losses, expenses, costs, obligations and liabilities (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees), suffered directly or indirectly by any of the Indemnitees to the extent of, or arising out of, (i) any breach of any covenant, representation or warranty made by Vendor in this Agreement, (ii) any failure by Vendor to perform or fulfill any of its obligations, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement, (iii) the negligence or intentional misconduct of Vendor, any subcontractor of Vendor, or any of their respective employees or agents, (iv) any failure of Vendor, its subcontractors, or their respective employees to comply with any Applicable Law, (v) any litigation, proceeding or claim by any third party relating in any way to the obligations of Vendor under this Agreement or Vendor’s performance under this Agreement, (vi) any Employee Taxes or Unemployment Insurance, or (vii) any claim alleging that the Products and Services or any part thereof infringe any third party’s U.S. patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property interest. Such obligation to indemnify shall not apply where the damage, claim, loss, expense, cost, obligation or liability is due to the breach of this Agreement by, or negligence or willful misconduct of, Lead Contracting Agency or its officials, directors, employees, agents or contractors.

The amount and type of insurance coverage requirements set forth herein will in no way be construed as DocuSign Envelope ID: E0575664-26DA-44D5-BA50-B3668C0198E5 #20..

SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES IN CONNECTION

WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR

INJURIES TO PERSONS OR TO PROPERTY OR LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF FUTURE BUSINESS

OR REPUTATION, WHETHER BASED ON TORT OR BREACH OF CONTRACT OR OTHER BASIS, EVEN IF IT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

6.3 The same terms, conditions and pricing of this Agreement may be extended to government members of National Purchasing Partners, LLC. In the event the terms of this Agreement are extended to other government members, each government member (procuring party) shall be solely responsible for the ordering of Products and Services under this Agreement. A non-procuring party shall not be liable in any fashion for any violation by a procuring party, and the procuring party shall hold nonprocuring parties or unrelated purchasing parties harmless from any liability that may arise from action or inaction of the procuring party.

ARTICLE 7 – WARRANTIES
Purchaser shall refer to Vendor’s Proposal for all Vendor and manufacturer express warranties, as well as those warranties provided under Attachment B herein.

ARTICLE 8 - INSPECTION AND REJECTION

8.1 Purchaser shall have the right to inspect and test Products at any time prior to shipment, and within a reasonable time after delivery to the Purchaser’s Destination. Products not inspected within a reasonable time after delivery shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser. The payment for Products shall in no way impair the right of Purchaser to reject nonconforming Products, or to avail itself of any other remedies to which it may be entitled.

8.2 If any of the Products are found at any time to be defective in material or workmanship, damaged, or otherwise not in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement or any applicable Purchase Order, as its exclusive remedy, Purchaser may at its option and at Vendor’s sole cost and expense, elect either to (i) return any damaged, non-conforming or defective Products to Vendor for correction or replacement, or (ii) require Vendor to inspect the Products and remove or replace damaged, non-conforming or defective Products with conforming Products. If Purchaser elects option (ii) in the preceding sentence and Vendor fails promptly to make the necessary inspection, removal and replacement, Purchaser, at its option, may inspect the Products and Vendor shall bear the cost thereof. Payment by Purchaser of any invoice shall not constitute acceptance of the Products covered by such invoice, and acceptance by Purchaser shall not relieve Vendor of its warranties or other obligations under this Agreement.

8.3 The provisions of this Article shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 9 – SUBSTITUTIONS
Except as otherwise permitted hereunder, Vendor may not make any substitutions of Products, or any portion thereof, of any kind without the prior written consent of Purchaser.

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, National Purchasing Partners (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign system.

Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.

Thank you for the opportunity to quote your
upcoming project. PLEASE NOTE: Quote does
not include installation, offload, payment and
performance bonds, engineering calculations,
security, storage, permits, inspection or safety
surfacing, unless otherwise noted. Unless noted,
freight costs are based on semi-truck access and
do not include a lift-gate.

Deposits may be required before an order can
be placed depending on customer credit terms.

Your purchase is subject to the terms and
conditions of this quote. Approval of this quote
agrees to those terms.

If ordering materials after the quoted expiration
date, please contact your sales representative
for current pricing. Due to material cost
increases and a fluid pricing environment, Ross
Recreation cannot hold pricing past the stated
Expiration Date on this quote. To secure current
pricing, Ross Recreation will require the
following:
- PO, signed quote or contract with approval for
the order.
- Deposit if required by credit terms.
- Color selections and/or approved submittals.
- Acceptance of delivery when materials or
equipment is ready to ship. Products cannot be
held nor stored.

Sales tax will be based on the current rate at the
time of shipping, not the order date. Customer
will be expected to cover these, or any changes,
to sales taxes.

Ross Recreation will provide labor using a
subcontractor for all installation and labor
quoted. Neither Ross Recreation, nor our
subcontractors, are signatory to any unions;
however, compliance with prevailing wage rate
requirements will occur. If union enrollment is
required by our subcontractor for completion of
this project, Ross Recreation will require a
Change Order to cover the costs of a per project
enrollment and additional wage/benefit
requirements.
