THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jessica Hill, Director of Community and Economic Development SUBJECT: Third Amendment with Harris & Associates for Community Facilities Districts Engineering Services
CONTACT: Edgar Garcia, Community Development Manager
[email protected], 209-577-5211
DESCRIPTION:
Consider a Third Amendment to an Agreement with Harris & Associates to provide Community Facilities Districts Engineering Services, increasing the Agreement amount by $200,000 to a new total amount not to exceed $550,000 and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Various Community Facilities Districts and Developer Deposits) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the City of Modesto’s 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Initiative, Goal D: Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance and sustainability efforts.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Modesto’s Community Facilities Districts (CFDs) are created to provide a funding and reimbursement mechanism for public facilities and/or services for various Specific Plan areas. CFDs are established to ensure that new development projects do not solely become the responsibility of the City’s General Fund and to ensure the long-term maintenance and aesthetic quality of each neighborhood.
In 1982, the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Act) was adopted by the State of California as a method for financing infrastructure improvements and services associated with new developments. The Act allows infrastructure improvements and services to be funded through a special tax paid by property owners.

Economic Development Committee, August 5, 2024
Third Amendment with Harris & Associates for Community Facilities Districts Engineering Services
DISCUSSION:
In July 2021, a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) was issued soliciting qualifications from qualified public sector consulting firms with demonstrated experience in facilities planning, infrastructure financing, and Mello-Roos Districts. Harris and Associates (Harris) was the only respondent and staff prepared and executed an agreement with Harris on September 13, 2021, to assist with Community Facilities Districts Engineering Services in the amount of $45,000.
On November 23, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-448, the City executed the First Amendment to the agreement with Harris & Associates for an amount not to exceed $250,000. On October 24, 2023, by Resolution No. 2023-460, City Council approved the Second Amendment to the agreement which increased the contract amount to $350,000. In both Amendments, an increase to the agreement was required to provide the necessary support to staff to address development inquiries regarding the formation of Mello-Roos Districts.
Harris & Associates continues to assist the City on several projects including Tivoli, the Oakdale and Claribel Road Corridor Study, and a variety of technical services related to engineering and infrastructure assessment/maintenance.
Some of the additional areas that require support are listed below. As a result of these additional projects, the forecasted expenditures are anticipated to exceed the current contract budget in the amount of $350,000. Therefore, staff is recommending an increase in the amount of $200,000 to account for the following additional project areas:
Tivoli Voluntary Land Dedication Program (VLDP) Assistance CFD Formation - Fairview Village #2
CFD Formation - Village One Triangle
CFD Formation- Kiernan Business Park South #2
CFD Formation & Infrastructure Financing Plan/Facilities Master Plan – Tivoli North Various annexations in existing CFDs - facilities cost estimate reviews 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, in order to increase efficiency and avoid delays or disruptions to City Services. Based on the additional need for services, the City is recommending a Third Amendment to this existing agreement to support the ongoing and anticipated development projects.
FISCAL IMPACT:
To continue supporting the expected and future projects, the City requires a Third Amendment increasing the Agreement amount by $200,000 from $350,000 to a new total of $550,000.
Funding sources include developer deposits and the City’s respective Community Facilities Districts. There is no impact to the General Fund.

In 1982, the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Act) was adopted by the State of California as a method for financing infrastructure improvements and services associated with new developments. The Act allows infrastructure improvements and services to be funded through a special tax paid by property owners.
DISCUSSION:
Based on the critical need to meet the demands of the unprecedented levels of new development, on July 14, 2021, the City released a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) soliciting

City Council, November 23, 2021
First Amendment with Harris & Associates for Community Facilities Districts Engineering Services
qualifications from experienced public sector consulting firms and/or individuals, with demonstrated understanding and familiarity in CFDs, special assessment districts, to provide engineering services and infrastructure assessment.
The RFQ solicitation yielded one response, and after a thorough interdepartmental review of the proposal, the City selected Harris & Associates because of their demonstrated experience in facilities planning and infrastructure financing, cost of scope, and overall familiarity with the subject matter. Furthermore, Harris assisted the City on several projects in the past including Village One, Tivoli, Kiernan Business Park, and Fairview Village and has an underlying understanding of the City.
Under the City Manager’s authority, the City entered into an agreement with Harris & Associates on September 13, 2021, for a not to exceed amount of $45,000. Their duties also include evaluating proposed CFD formations and annexations, preparing cost estimates and improvement plans for needed infrastructure, and other duties related to land development engineering.
Since this time, there has been multiple developers who have expressed interest in developing in other areas in the City, which would require the work of Harris and Associates. Some of those areas and needs include:
Tentative map review
Tivoli Voluntary Land Dedication Program (VLDP) Assistance Acquisition and Shortfall Agreements
CFD Formation - Fairview Village
CFD Formation - Village One Triangle
CFD Formation & Infrastructure Financing Plan/Facilities Master Plan - Tivoli North Various annexations in existing CFDs - facilities cost estimate reviews Additionally, the Community and Economic Development Department is experiencing staff vacancy issues and does not have capacity to perform these functions.
In accordance with Modesto Municipal Code 8-3.204(a), Exceptions for Formal Bidding Requirements, this agreement is for professional services, and, therefore, exempt from the bid requirement; however, staff initially conducted an informal RFP process and recommends approval of the amendment with Harris & Associates.
FISCAL IMPACT:
To continue this project to implement the recommended improvements, the City requires a First Amendment to the agreement increasing the agreement amount by $205,000 from $45,000 to a total of $250,000.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
This item has not been reviewed by Committee.

THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Toby Wells, Director of Engineering Services/City Engineer SUBJECT: Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant Application Request CONTACT: Michael Sacuskie, Assistant City Engineer, [email protected], 209-571-5552
DESCRIPTION:
Consider the submittal of a Grant Application for Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: California Department of Transportation Grant Funds)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action is consistent with the City of Modesto 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Goal D, Ensure Safe, Efficient, and Reliable Infrastructure.
BACKGROUND:
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) was signed into law on November 15, 20211.
Under the IIJA, the Local Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)2 is a core federal-aid program for states. The purpose of the HSIP program is to achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads, including non-State-owned public roads and roads on tribal land.
Caltrans Division of Local Assistance typically announces a call for HSIP project applications in the Spring either annually or biennially. The total available funds vary with each funding cycle but 1 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) - https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/bipartisan-infrastructure-law/ 2 Local Highway Safety Improvement Program - https://dot.ca.gov/programs/local-assistance/fed-and-stateprograms/highway-safety-improvement-program #2..

Economic Development Committee, August 5, 2024
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Grant Application Request
have been upwards of $200 million for the last several cycles. Applications are typically due in September of the year that the call for applications is made.
For the last few cycles, there have been two funding categories for HSIP: Benefit Cost Ratio (BCR) and Funding Set-Asides (SA). There are five set-aside categories this cycle: Guard Rail Upgrades, Pedestrian Crossing Enhancements, Installing Edgelines, Bike Safety Improvements, and Set-aside for Tribes. There is a maximum funding request for each set-aside category between $350,000 and $1 million per local agency. There is no maximum number of applications that can be submitted per agency for the BCR category; however, there is a maximum award amount of $10 million per agency.
Typically, the maximum federal reimbursement ratio for an HSIP grant is 90% with a local match of 10%. A project may be eligible for 100% HSIP reimbursement if all components of the project are eligible for 100% reimbursement per Section 4.2 of the Local Roadway Safety Manual (LRSM).
DISCUSSION:
Typically, an HSIP call for projects is made annually or biennially. The timing and size of the call is determined by the program apportionments, HSIP Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) capacity and the delivery of the existing HSIP applications.
It is the intent of the HSIP program that funds be expended on safety projects that can be designed and constructed expeditiously. Projects should not require significant amounts of right of way acquisition, nor should they require extensive environmental review and mitigation. For a project to be eligible for HSIP funding, a specific safety problem must be identified, and the proposed countermeasure(s) must substantially address the condition.
Staff has been working on evaluating potential projects based on collision history along specific corridors and locations throughout the City of Modesto as part of the Systemic Safety Analysis Report (SSAR) project. Upon completion of this analysis, City staff will select the project(s) that are most competitive with the HSIP grant and match the priority projects for the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Divisions that typically apply for HSIP funds are Transportation Engineering and Design and Traffic Engineering. The cost to prepare HSIP grant applications to apply for funds will come from the operating budget of the respective division.
If a 10% local match is required for any of the HSIP applications received, it will come from the appropriate transportation fund. The local match funding source will be dependent on the project, but historically the match has come from Surface Transportation Funds which include the Gas Tax fund and the Measure L Local Control funds which includes categories for Local Streets & Roads, Traffic Management and Bike and Pedestrian.
CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:
Environmental review for this project will take place during the Preliminary Engineering phase of the project if the City is successful in securing these HSIP grant funds. #2..

Consider a Grant of Permanent Easement and Right-of-Way to Modesto Irrigation District associated with existing irrigation facilities within a portion of APN 004-102-003 and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Water Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the 2020-2025 City of Modesto Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D: Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.
BACKGROUND:
On April 3, 2018, by Resolution No. 2018-144, Council awarded a Construction Contract to NorCal Pump & Well Drilling, Inc., of Yuba City, CA in the amount of $426,417 for the Del Rio Well 70 (Replacing Well 271) Surface Improvements Project.
During construction of the Project, staff became aware that the Modesto Irrigation District (MID) facilities located on the property did not have an easement to permit the placement of the facilities, nor access to upgrade, maintain, repair, replace or modify those facilities.
DISCUSSION:
The Utilities Department and MID routinely work together to coordinate infrastructure maintenance, installation, repair, upgrades, removal and modifications throughout the City.
The existing MID infrastructure on the property in question includes an irrigation line & control box structure which are utilized primarily to convey irrigation water to their agricultural customers.

SUBJECT: Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services
CONTACT: Jeff Daniels, Wastewater Division Manager, [email protected], 209-577-6255
DESCRIPTION:
Consider the Agreement for Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services to Grover Landscape Services, Inc. Modesto, CA, for a total amount not to exceed $1,030,347 over five years and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Sewer Operations Fund, Storm Drain Fund, and various Community Facilities Districts (CFD) Funds)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the City’s 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D:
Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Modesto Utilities Department, Wastewater Division, is responsible for maintaining the sewer and storm lift stations, stormwater basins, and Regional Water Recycling Facilities:
Sutter Campus and Jennings Campus.
These properties all require landscaping services that include, but are not limited to, real property landscape maintenance, weed abatement, trash removal, and rodent control in order to maintain their proper functions and eliminate safety risks.
The City currently has an active PRN Citywide landscaping services Agreement with Grover listed as the secondary Vendor. This Agreement is listed as an On-Call Vegetation Management Agreement that is utilized to service the City’s various Parks on an as needed basis. However, the Scope of Work necessary to maintain the Wastewater Division’s sewer and storm lift #4..
- 86 -
Economic Development Committee, August 5, 2024
Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services
stations, stormwater basins, and the treatment facilities as described in IFB 2324-61 encompasses a much broader set of requirements than the PRN Citywide On-Call Vegetation Management Services.
In addition, by separating the City’s different needs and requirements into separate Scope of Work, the City is able to better facilitate a competitive bid process due to the sheer volume of work that is necessary. A single Agreement would leave smaller companies unable to provide a responsive and responsible bid for requested services which would have an overall effect of less competitive pricing to the City.
On August 07, 2019, by Resolution No. 2019-355, Council approved an agreement with Grover Landscape for Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control services for an annual cost not to exceed $155,000 and a total amount not to exceed $853,000 over five years.
The City’s current Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal, and Rodent Control services agreement is set to expire on August 07, 2024. In order to continue uninterrupted maintenance on the City’s various Sewer and Storm related sites, a new agreement is necessary.
DISCUSSION:
On December 5, 2023, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit the procurement for Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal, and Rodent Control Services. On April 23, 2024, the Purchasing Division issued Invitation for Bids (IFB) IFB 2324-61 for Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal, and Rodent Control Services on the City's PlanetBids public bidding website under various commodity codes.1 Prospective bidders were notified online and via email of the bid opportunity. Thirty-three (33) companies downloaded the IFB documents from PlanetBids.
On June 4, 2024, bids were formally opened in the City Clerk's office and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestream. Four (4) chose to respond, there was one (1) local bid received.
Based on providing the lowest responsive and responsible bid, City staff recommended to award the Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal, and Rodent Control Services to Grover Landscape Services, Inc., Modesto, CA for the total amount not to exceed $1,030,347.
Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to follow the formal bid procedures. An award of Bid and Agreement for Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services for the Utilities Department, Wastewater Division use to Grover Landscape Services, Inc., Modesto, CA, conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code because the City complied with the formal bid procedures and Grover Landscape Services, Inc. was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. 1 90656 Landscape Architecture

Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services
FISCAL IMPACT:
This service will be budgeted for in the Sewer and Storm Drain Funds in addition to various CFDs in accordance with the anticipated annual agreement amount displayed in Table 2 below.
The estimated annual spending for years one (1) and two (2) is $187,000. This includes an approximate 20% increase over the bid amount to include hourly labor costs that were proposed for additional repair and maintenance services on City sites. The additional repair services cover all additional work outside of the regularly scheduled maintenance services as defined in Exhibit C – Scope of Work including, but not limited to: repair of damages caused by vandalism, sprinkler repair, large scale vegetation removal, and the removal of bulky items due to illegal dumping. An 8% annual increase was also included in years three (3) through five (5) to account for inflationary factors2.

41 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
1.0 SCOPE OF WORK:
The City of Modesto, Utilities Department, Wastewater Division, is requesting landscape maintenance, weed abatement, trash removal and burrowing rodent control service at multiple locations throughout the City of Modesto. Currently the City has twenty-five (25) storm basins, eight (8) sewer lift stations, four (4) Utility Easements, and the Sutter Wastewater Treatment Facilities all located throughout the City of Modesto.

1.1 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STORM BASINS:
The Wastewater Division, Stormwater Collections has twenty-five (25) storm basins as listed on ATTACHMENT A.

These basins are excavated into the ground and consist of sloped dirt banks with access roads for maintenance needs. It is imperative that weeds be kept at a minimum to allow for optimal percolation and to prevent possible vegetation from reaching the pump stations. It is also an effective preventative measure to control the weeds in the summer months when they would typically die off and have the potential to create a fire danger. Weed abatement and trash removal services include regularly scheduled spraying of weeds on flat surfaces and cutting of weeds on sloped surfaces, leaving roots and 4” to 6” of stubble for erosion control as needed, and removal of litter and debris (including disposal), on a monthly basis, and as directed. Any chemicals used in the process shall be applied by a licensed and certified applicator. A monthly rodent control service is required for all basins, with more frequent services provided at three (3) storm water basins: Central Basin, North Pointe and West Basin.
Service shall be provided at all basins and easements on an as needed basis or as directed by the city to prevent erosion caused by squirrels and other burrowing animals. Previous damage from rodents has resulted in costly bank repairs at several basins.
A. Basin Services:
1. The Contractor shall apply one application of pre-emergent yearly and monthly herbicidal applications as needed to control emerging weed growth shall be applied to the areas listed in Attachment A over a twelve (12) month period.

Chris Ricci, Chair
Eric Alvarez, Vice-Chair
Sue Zwahlen, Member
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Generator Repair and Preventive Maintenance Agreement CONTACT: Manuel Martinez, Acting Water Division Manager, [email protected], 209-342-4592
DESCRIPTION:
Consider the Agreements for Generator Repair and Preventative Maintenance Service with Bay City Electric Works of Livermore, CA, and PowerGen, Inc. of Tracy, CA, for a total amount not to exceed $1,214,800 over five years and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source:
Various Funds)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the 2020-2025 City of Modesto Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D: Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Modesto Utilities Department, Police Department, and Public Works Department rely upon contractual agreements for repair and preventative maintenance of approximately sixtyeight (68) generators, although additional generators may be identified over the course of this service agreement. Stationary generators provide emergency back-up power to various City facilities, allowing departments to continue operations during a power outage. Portable generators provide power for special projects in remote areas, back-up power to smaller facilities and power for special City events.
On May 9, 2017, by Resolution 2017-188, Council approved the award of bid for generator preventative maintenance and repairs services for the Water and Wastewater Divisions for a twoyear agreement to Central California Generator of Riverbank, California, with three (3) one-year extension options for an estimated annual cost of $115,000 and a total combined cost not to exceed $575,000 over five years, through May 10, 2022.

Economic Development Committee, August 5, 2024
Generator Repair and Preventive Maintenance Agreement
In October 2020, a new Agreement with the same terms and conditions was issued to Bay City Electric Works of Livermore, California (“Bay City”) due to the acquisition of Central California Generator and assumption of their contracts. The balance of the previous agreement was $124,850.60, leaving $450,149.40 remaining on the agreement with Bay City.
On December 14, 2021, by Resolution 2021-492, Council approved the First Amendment to the Agreement with Bay City, extending the termination date from May 10, 2022, to November 10, 2022, with no increase in spending authority.
On November 17, 2022, the Director of Finance approved the Second Amendment to the Agreement with Bay City, extending the termination date from November 10, 2022, to November 10, 2023, with no increase in spending authority.
On October 5, 2023, the Director of Finance approved the Third Amendment to the Agreement with Bay City, extending the termination date from November 10, 2023, to May 10, 2024, with no increase in spending authority.
On April 9, 2024, by Resolution 2324-123, Council approved the Fourth Amendment to the agreement with Bay City, extending the termination date from May 10, 2024, to August 31, 2024 and increased the previous approved Not to Exceed amount from $575,000 to $935,000.
DISCUSSION:
On January 10, 2022, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit the procurement for Generator Repair and Preventative Maintenance Service. On March 13, 2024, the Purchasing Division issued Invitation For Bids (IFB) No. 2122-46RB, Generator Repair and Preventative Maintenance Service, on the City’s PlanetBids public bidding website under various commodity codes1. Prospective bidders were notified online and via email of the bid opportunity.
Twenty-Five (25) companies downloaded the IFB document from PlanetBids.
On April 23, 2024, bids were formally opened in the City Clerk and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestream. Two (2) companies chose to respond, and no local bids were received. Based on providing the lowest responsive and responsible bid, City staff recommends awarding the Generator Repair and Preventative Maintenance Service Agreement to Bay City as Primary and PowerGen Inc. of Tracy CA (“PowerGen”) as Secondary for a two (2) year agreement with three (3) one-year extension options, for a total estimated annual amount of $181,300, and $1,214,800 over five years. Staff is requesting to give the Director of Finance the approval to adjust agreement totals between vendors based on availability and department needs.
To ensure continued service to the City, contracts may be awarded to more than one contractor to provide backup if the primary contractor is unable to meet the City’s needs. A secondary contractor may be awarded a specific job if the primary contractor is unable to perform the service, unable to complete the specific job within the time frame required by the City, or unable to maintain acceptable quality standards required by the City.
The operation of Wastewater generators is essential to maintaining operations in the event a generator fails and emergency rental services are required, and $250,000 from the Wastewater Fund will be allocated for emergency rental purposes only. 1 69000 Power Generation Equipment, and Supplies
91438 Electrical

Economic Development Committee, August 5, 2024
Generator Repair and Preventive Maintenance Agreement
Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to follow formal bid procedures. An award of bid and Agreements for Generator Repair and Preventative Maintenance Service for citywide use to Bay City and PowerGen conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code because the City complied with formal bid procedures, and Bay City and PowerGen were the lowest responsive and responsible bidders.

26 BID FORM F – FINANCIAL INTEREST DISCLOSURE
Any contract award to result from this IFB process and Bidder’s submission of a Bid therewith will require approval by a majority vote of the City of Modesto’s City Council. In order to have full transparency in any City of Modesto commercial actions, the City Council may not approve an agreement between the City and the Bidder until all person with a direct or indirect financial interest of greater than $2,000 in the Bidder are identified by name.
Bidder must therefore complete this Bid Form F – Financial Interest Disclosure, listing by name all parties that have a material financial interest in the agreement, contract or development right.
PLEASE NOTE, any Council action that requires a Financial Interest Disclosure cannot be considered by the City Council until the required reporting is made. That means that City Council agenda items without the disclosure will be removed from the Council agenda.
Financial Interest Disclosure to City of Modesto
The Bidder shall identify any person with a financial interest in the Bidder by name, below.
For the purposes of this disclosure, a “Financial Interest” shall have the meaning contained in Modesto Municipal Code section 2-10.02.
Persons having an aggregate economic interest in the Bidder less than two thousand dollars ($2,000.00) at all times prior to final Council action of the proposed contract are not required to be listed on the Financial Interest Disclosure.

Concrete mix and base rock are used to provide compaction and water absorption for saturated holes.
