This item advances the City of Modesto 2020-2025 Strategic Plan Area: Governance and Service Delivery: “build community trust in City government through responsive, transparent and efficient service delivery”; Goal J: “build a high-performance organization”.

BACKGROUND:

Each year, City vehicles and equipment are individually evaluated based on their age, condition, mileage and maintenance costs, including the addition of new vehicles due to the operational needs of the city. Following this process, a Fleet Addition and Replacement List is submitted to Council and is approved as part of a new fiscal year’s Public Works Fleet Budget.

Throughout the fiscal year, new vehicles need to be added to the City’s Fleet inventory due to the operational needs of the various City departments. When these vehicles are added to the fleet, they are also added to the Fleet Replacement list to prepare for future replacement.

On November 2022, Sourcewell issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) #011723 for Heavy Construction Equipment with Related Attachments and Technology. The RFP was advertised through the New York Contract Reporter, Oregon advertising and through the Sourcewell public website.

motorcycles had been identified on the vehicle replacement list in Fiscal Year 2021-22 and 2022-23. In May 2023, Florida Sheriffs Association (FSA) issued IFB #FSA23-VEL31.0 for Pursuit, Administrative and Other Vehicles. The IFB was advertised through the Florida Administrative Weekly, State of Florida Office of Supplier Diversity and FSA’s public websites.

On September 1, 2023, the bid opening was conducted at the FSA building location. Twenty (22) bids were received and based on the bids which were the lowest bid per vehicle Alligator Alley Harley Davidson was awarded the bid under the FSA Agreement # FSA23-VEL31.0 which includes the Police Motorcycles. City staff recommends to award to Alligator Alley Harley Davidson, Sunrise FL for the purchase of six (6) Police Motorcycles in an amount not to exceed $195,605.

IFB 2425-03 Two (2) F250 Super Duty Trucks
The City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager on August 24, 2020 and in July 2021 to solicit the procurement for two (2) F250 Super Duty Trucks for the Engineering Services Department. These trucks had been identified on the vehicle replacement list in Fiscal Year 2022-23 and 2021-22. In February 2023, Texas Association of School Boards coordinated with Buy Board Purchasing Cooperative to issue Contract #724-23 for Vehicles, Police Motorcycles, Trucks, Parts, and Maintenance Repair Services. The Request for Proposal (RFP) was advertised through Abilene Reporter News, Brownsville Herald, Hearst Media Solutions, the Lawton Constitution, The Oregonian, and Buy Board website. On September 7, 2023, the bid opening was conducted at the Texas Association of School Boards building location. Seventeen (17) proposals were received, and based on the proposal meeting the evaluation criteria, Rush Truck Center was awarded the contract under the Buy Board Contract #724-23 which includes the F250 Super Duty Trucks. City staff recommends awarding to Rush Truck Centers, Ceres, CA for the purchase of two (2) F250 Super Duty Trucks in an amount not to exceed $128,585.

Sourcewell and the public agencies are cooperative agreements to streamline the procurement process by developing IFBs or Request for Proposals (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 and public agencies to offer exceptional products from nationally acclaimed vendors.

Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases that 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 her discretion, determines that a process other than the formal bid procedure set for in Section 8-3.203 will result in a 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 or other units of government in cooperative purchasing plans when the best cost savings interest of the City would be served.

By utilizing Sourcewell and the bidding processes of other public agencies, the City is complying with the requirements defined under this Section of the Municipal Code for the one (1) John Deere Wheel Loader, six (6) Police Motorcycles and two (2) F250 Super Duty Trucks.

For all vehicles and equipment, City staff recommends applying a change order of up to 15% in case any market changes occur between the timeframe of when the order is placed with the vendor and when the production of the vehicle is completed. With current inflation and the volatile vehicle market, City staff will ensure any price increases requested by the vendor align #10..

with the market change based on using the Commodities Research Unit indexes which focuses on indexes related to steel.

With the new California Air Resource Board (CARB) zero-emission regulations as described in the Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation for State and Local Government Agency Fleet Requirements, § Section 2013(c)4, State and Local Government Fleet Applicability, Definitions, and General Requirements, California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 165, emergency vehicles are exempt under the current regulation to convert from internal combustion engines (ICE) to zero-emission vehicles. Public Works is currently developing the City’s fleet migration to Zero Emission Vehicles to comply with the State regulations in reducing reliance on internal combustion engines. Currently the needs for serving the community and the completion of the fleet conversion plan require the implementation of additional internal combustion engines to replace aged fleet vehicles.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds for the six (6) Police Motorcycles and two (2) F250 Super Duty Trucks are budgeted in Fiscal Year 2024-25 in the Fleet Replacement Fund. The one (1) addition for the one (1) John Deere Wheel Loader for the Public Works Department will be funded from the Senate Bill 1383 Grant and Compost Fund.

The Services Warranty is valid for a period of ninety (90) days from the date the Product(s) is delivered to Customer. Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, and Dealer’s entire liability, under the Services Warranty is the repair of any nonconforming portion of the Services. DEALER PROVIDES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, CONCERNING ITS SERVICES. The Services Warranty is strictly limited to Services performed by Dealer for Customer. Dealer does not warrant any services provided by any third-party, including but not limited to installation, upfitting or conversion services. Any warranties are solely those that are provided by the third-party service provider.

NO OTHER WARRANTIES. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH ABOVE, DEALER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

3. Reappraisal of Trade-In Vehicle. If the motor vehicle which has been traded in (“Trade-In Vehicle”) as a part of the consideration for the Product(s) ordered hereunder is not to be delivered to Dealer until delivery to Customer of the Product(s), the Trade-In Vehicle shall be reappraised at that time and such reappraised value shall determine the allowance made for the Trade-In Vehicle. If the reappraised value is lower than the original allowance shown on the front of this Order, Customer may, if dissatisfied, cancel this Order.

4. Delivery of Trade-In Vehicle by Customer; Customer Warranty of Title and Emissions.

5. Delay or Failure in Delivery; Limitation of Dealer Liability. Dealer shall not be liable for failure to deliver or delay in delivering any Product(s) covered by this Order where such failure or delay is due, in whole or in part, to any cause beyond the reasonable control, or is without the gross negligence or intentional misconduct, of Dealer. Examples of causes beyond Dealer’s reasonable control include, but are not limited to, Manufacturers’ delay or failure to deliver Product(s) for any reason, earthquake, hurricane or other natural disaster, fire, war, terrorist act, labor dispute, strike, etc.

6. Liability for Taxes.

Customer assumes and agrees to pay, unless prohibited by law, any such sales or use or occupational taxes imposed on or applicable to the transaction covered by this Order, regardless of which party may have primary tax liability thereof.

7. Customer’s Deposit. Any Customer’s deposit, whether cash or Trade-In Vehicle, shall not be refunded except due to Dealer’s failure to deliver the Product(s).

Customer shall assume all risk of loss relating to the Product(s) at the time Customer receives possession of the Product(s), or at the time Customer receives title to the Product(s) if title is conveyed before Customer receives possession. Customer shall obtain insurance for the Product(s) that will be in effect at the time Customer takes possession of the Product(s), or at the time Customer receives title to the Product(s) if title is conveyed before the Customer receives possession. Dealer shall have no responsibility or liability related to the Product(s) after Customer receives either possession or title to the Product(s).

9. Governing Law; Venue; Time to Commence Action. Except to the extent that the laws of the United States may apply or otherwise control this Order, the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the state in which Dealer is located, without regard to conflict of law principles. The mandatory venue for any claim, litigation, civil action or any other legal or administrative proceeding (“Action”) involving any controversy or claim between or among the parties to this Order, is the state in which Dealer is located.

Customer has one (1) year from the accrual of any cause of action arising from the purchase of the Product(s) to commence an Action against Dealer.

10. Limitation of Damages. Customer agrees that in the event of any Action brought by Customer against Dealer, Customer shall not be entitled to recover any incidental or consequential damages as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code, including but not limited to indirect or special damages, loss of income or anticipated profits, or down-time, or any punitive damages.

12. Execution and Delivery by Electronic Transmission. If this Order or any document executed in connection with this Order is delivered by facsimile, email or similar instantaneous electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen, such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes as an original document.

15. No Broker; Manufacturer Incentives. If at any time Dealer determines that the Customer intends to engage in the resale of vehicles for profit, where such resale is not in conjunction with further manufacturing, Dealer reserves the right to cancel this Order. Certain manufacturer incentives are intended to be used for retail customers at the location as identified by the Customer in this Order. Customer represents that they will register the vehicle with their state motor vehicle department and are not purchasing this vehicle with the intent to resell/export the vehicle, except where such resale is in conjunction with further manufacturing. If at any time Dealer determines that the foregoing representations are not true, Dealer has the right to seek repayment of any manufacturer incentives that are paid.

16. Communication Consent. Dealer and any other owner or servicer of this account may use any information Customer gives Dealer, including but not limited to email addresses, cell phone numbers, and landline numbers, to contact Customer for purposes related to this account, including debt collection and marketing purposes. In addition, Customer expressly consents to any such contact being made by the most efficient technology available, including but not limited to, automated dialing equipment, automated messages, and prerecorded messages, even if Customer is charged for the contact.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

July 9, 2024
Date: June 10, 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 the for 2023 Playground Replacement Phase 1 Project
CONTACT: Nathan Houx, Parks Planning and Development Manager, [email protected], 209-571-5526
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Plans and Specifications for the 2023 Playground Replacement Project, Phase 1, accepting the Bid and Awarding a Construction Contract to Sierra Play Partners, of Ripon, CA, in an amount not to exceed $758,533. (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. 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 sought public input on the playground design of six (6) of the play structures. On November 17, 2023, via the City website, voting for the preferred design of four playgrounds at Lakewood Park, Mildred Perkins Park, Orchard Park, and Riverside Park was opened. Voting lasted until December 8, 2023, and a total of 1,290 votes were received. On January 5, 2024, via the City website, voting for the preferred design for two additional playgrounds at Aqueduct Park and City Gate Children’s Park, was opened. Voting lasted until January 19, 2024, and a total of 193 votes were received.

On February 27, 2024, by Council Resolution 2024-071, Council approved the purchase of six playgrounds for a total not to exceed $959,394. In addition to the purchase of play equipment, sitework is necessary for installation of the play equipment. This construction award will cover six of the eight playground sites. For the remaining two sites, Coleman F. Brown Park and Davis #11..

Award Construction Contract the for 2023 Playground Replacement Phase 1 Project

Page 2 of 3 ends

Park, staff continues work on the design and expects to bring an item for Council’s approval in the coming months.

DISCUSSION:

The site work for the project was advertised for bids on May 7, 2024. Bids were publicly opened on June 11, 2024, pursuant to City Charter Section 1307, and four bids were received. Sierra Play Partners, of Ripon, 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 0
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 -13.48% Sierra Play Partners of Ripon, CA, was 13.48% below the engineer’s estimate. The next lowest bid was 15.02% above the engineer’s estimate. The highest bid was 33% 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 2023 Playground Replacement Phase 1 Project to Sierra Play Partners, of Ripon, CA, conforms to Modesto Municipal Code, 8-3.203. Therefore, staff recommends awarding the contract to Sierra Play Partners, of Ripon, 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. Staff is requesting the Engineering Services Director’s Authority to issue change orders of 10% ($68,958) 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 the Capital Improvement Project #101517 (PRN – 2023/24 Deferred Maintenance – Measure H). The expense budget for the project, shall be as outlined below:

Award Construction Contract the for 2023 Playground Replacement Phase 1 Project

Page 3 of 3 ends

ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION EXPENSES:

Construction $ 689,575
Construction Contingency (10%) $ 68,958
Construction Administration – City Staff (3%) $ 20,687
Bid/Design Support During Construction (2%) $ 13,792
Total Cost $ 793,012
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

On April 15, 2024, 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. The Committee approved the item to be forwarded to Council for approval.

CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:

City staff prepared a Notice of Exemption No. EA/PR&N 2024-01, and the project is categorically exempt from CEQA because of Section 15302, since the project is for the replacement of existing structures involving a negligible expansion of use beyond the current use.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Staff Recommendations:

Resolution approving the Plans and Specifications for the 2023 Playground Replacement Phase 1 Project, accepting the Bid and Awarding a Construction Contract to Sierra Play Partners of Ripon, CA, in the amount of $689,575, plus $68,958, in contingency (if needed), for a total payment amount not to exceed $758,533 and authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the contract.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

August 27, 2024
Date: August 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 the 2024 Sport Court Lighting Project CONTACT: Nathan Houx, Parks Planning and Development Manager, [email protected], 209-571-5526
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the Plans and Specifications for the 2024 Sport Court Lighting Project for Davis Community Park and Beyer Community Park, accepting the Bid and Awarding a Construction Contract to Fluoresco Services, LLC, of Phoenix, AZ, in an amount not to exceed $113,850. (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. In June 2023, by Resolution 2023-266, 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, $190,000 is budgeted for the renovation of lighting for sport courts within the park system.

Davis Community Park’s sport court lighting was originally installed in 1969 and Beyer Community Park’s was originally installed in 1987. Over the years the technology for sport court lighting systems has become more efficient and cost effective which is favorable for maintenance and longevity of the facilities in our park system. This deferred maintenance project will certainly enhance the recreational use for the community.

DISCUSSION:

The site work for the project was advertised for bids on June 14, 2024. Bids were publicly opened on July 23, 2024, pursuant to City Charter Section 1307, and five bids were received.

Fluoresco Services, LLC, of Phoenix, AZ., 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:
#12..

City Council, August 27, 2024
Award Construction Contract for the 2024 Sport Court Lighting Project

Page 2 of 3 ends

The bid analysis is:

Number of bids received 5
Number of bids within 10% of engineer’s estimate 4
Number of bids above the engineer’s estimate 3
Number of bids below the engineer’s estimate 2
Percent low bid is below the engineer’s estimate -26.07% Fluoresco Services, LLS, was 26.07% below the engineer’s estimate. The next lowest bid was exactly at the engineer’s estimate. The highest bid was 9.21% above the engineer’s estimate.

Bidder competition and participation was evident as the City received five 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 2024 Sport Court Lighting Project to Fluoresco Services, LLC, of Phoenix, AZ., conforms to Modesto Municipal Code, 8-3.203. Therefore, staff recommends awarding the contract to Fluoresco Services, LLC, of Phoenix, AZ.

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. Staff are requesting the Engineering Services Director’s Authority to issue change orders of 10% ($10,350) 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 initiating a bidding process for 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 the Capital Improvement Project #101517 (PRN – 2023/24 Deferred Maintenance – Measure H). The expense budget for the project, shall be as outlined below:

ESTIMATED CONSTRUCTION EXPENSES:

Construction $103,500
Construction Contingency (10%) $10,350
Construction Administration – City Staff (3%) $3,105
Bid/Design Support During Construction (2%) $2,070
Total Cost $119,025
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

On April 15, 2024, 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. The Committee approved the item to be forwarded to Council for approval.

CEQA/NEPA REQUIREMENTS:

City staff prepared a Notice of Exemption No. EA/PR&N 2024-03, and the project is categorically exempt from CEQA because of Section 15302, since the project is for the #12..

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

August 27, 2024
Date: August 13, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Jeremy Rogers, CPRE, Director of Parks, Recreation and Neighborhoods SUBJECT: Modesto Forward Grant Agreement with the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum CONTACT: Diane Sheatsley, Administrative Analyst II, [email protected], 209-577-5418
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving the City of Modesto Pandemic Recovery Strategy – Modesto Forward Grant Agreement between the City of Modesto and the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum, a non-profit Corporation, for $350,000 in American Rescue Plan Act Funding. (Funding Source: American Rescue Plan Act)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:

This item supports each of the initiatives in the City’s 2020-2025 Strategic Plan.

BACKGROUND:

In April 2021, President Biden signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), a $1.9 trillion emergency relief measure intended to provide relief to address the impact of COVID-19.

Key allocations from the American Rescue Plan that have been made available directly from the federal government for the community included direct support for businesses, homeowners, renters, and restaurant/bar owners.

This legislation made a historic investment into local governments that included making $45,897,056 available to the City of Modesto to help address the local impact of COVID-19. The $45.89 million is being made available by the U.S Treasury directly to the City in two tranches:
50 percent was made available in May 2021, and the remaining 50 percent was received on June 6, 2022. The deadline to obligate funds is December 31, 2024, and the deadline to expend the funds is December 31, 2026.

The Modesto Forward strategy was approved by Resolution 2021-194 on May 25, 2021, and it included various allocations of funding, which are attached to this item identified as the Year 1 strategy. Further, under Resolution 2022-237 on July 12, 2022, the Year 2 expenditure plan was approved based on soliciting priorities from the public and the Council at the three standing City Council Committees: Economic Development, Safety and Communities, and Finance. Staff identified this plan by soliciting a 10-question survey intended to gauge the priority areas of the #13..

community and received approximately 700 responses to the survey. With the passing of Measure H and new grant funding sources, Council approved under Resolution 2023-251, several ARPA programs to be reallocated to new or existing ARPA programs based on these new funding sources available for these programs.

As the Treasury obligation deadline of December 31, 2024, is closely approaching, City staff determined several ARPA programs would not be unable to meet the obligation deadline or new funding sources have been identified to fund these programs. As a result, staff recommended the reallocation of this funding for other eligible ARPA programs and funding contributions, including a $350,000 contribution to the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum. On June 4, 2024, by Resolution No. 2024-194, Council approved the reallocation of $350,000 in ARPA funding to the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum (Recipient).

DISCUSSION:

The Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum, a non-profit corporation, is a historic museum that is designed to nurture a sense of community, shared history and cultural value. It will provide quality-of-life opportunities to the community as well as stimulate economic vitality by attracting tourists, drive creative industry with mural and exhibit compositions, and serve as a unique event space.

In 2022, by Resolution No. 2022-104, Council awarded an allocation of $500,000 towards the remodel and retrofit of its building, specifically the required fire suppression system, insulation and restrooms. The Recipient has exhausted nearly all of this funding and is in good standing with all reporting and agreement requirements. Earlier this year, the Recipient requested an additional $350,000 for the ongoing construction, specifically for materials and construction related to the completion of its electrical infrastructure and exterior architectural features so they can fast track the opening of the California Welcome Center and the museum lobby space. The Recipient continues to raise private funds to help finance full completion of the Phase I construction.

Phase I – East Side Building Construction (ARPA funded portion of Phase I) The provision of the additional $350,000 in ARPA funds will assist the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum in staying on schedule and help accelerate more private donations from donors.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Finance will process any budget adjustments necessary to remit the $350,000 payment to the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum. The organization is required to expend funding on or before December 31, 2026 in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Grant Agreement.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:

This item was considered on April 17, 2024 by the Finance Committee at the FY 2024-2025 Budget Hearings. The allocation of ARPA funding for the Graffiti USA Classic Car Museum was approved by Council on June 4, 2024 by Resolution No. 2024-294.

Notwithstanding anything in this provision to the contrary, the arbitrator shall have no power to award punitive damages or other damages not measured by the party’s actual damages (excluding litigation costs and fees) against any party.

The Recipient shall include in all subcontracts a specification whereby the subcontractor consents to being joined in an arbitration between City and The Recipient involving the work of the subcontractor to be joined. The Recipient’s failure to do so shall be a breach of this Agreement.

ASSURANCES OF COMPLIANCE WITH CIVIL RIGHTS REQUIREMENTS ASSURANCES OF COMPLIANCE WITH TITLE VI OF THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT OF 1964 As a condition of receipt of federal financial assistance from the Department of the Treasury, the recipient named below (hereinafter referred to as the “Recipient”) provides the assurances stated herein. The federal financial assistance may include federal grants, loans and contracts to provide assistance to the Recipient’s beneficiaries, the use or rent of Federal land or property at below market value, Federal training, a loan of Federal personnel, subsidies, and other arrangements with the intention of providing assistance. Federal financial assistance does not encompass contracts of guarantee or insurance, regulated programs, licenses, procurement contracts by the Federal government at market value, or programs that provide direct benefits.

The assurances apply to all federal financial assistance from or funds made available through the Department of the Treasury, including any assistance that the Recipient may request in the future.

The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 provides that the provisions of the assurances apply to all of the operations of the Recipient’s program(s) and activity(ies), so long as any portion of the Recipient’s program(s) or activity(ies) is federally assisted in the manner prescribed above.

1. Recipient ensures its current and future compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, which prohibits exclusion from participation, denial of the benefits of, or subjection to discrimination under programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance, of any person in the United States on the ground of race, color, or national origin (42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq.), as implemented by the Department of the Treasury Title VI regulations at 31 CFR Part 22 and other pertinent executive orders such as Executive Order 13166, directives, circulars, policies, memoranda, and/or guidance documents.

2. Recipient acknowledges that Executive Order 13166, “Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency,” seeks to improve access to federally assisted programs and activities for individuals who, because of national origin, have Limited English proficiency (LEP).

Recipient understands that denying a person access to its programs, services, and activities because of LEP is a form of national origin discrimination prohibited under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Department of the Treasury’s implementing regulations. Accordingly, #13..
- 422 -
Funding Contribution Agreement –$350,000
Recipient shall initiate reasonable steps, or comply with the Department of the Treasury’s directives, to ensure that LEP persons have meaningful access to its programs, services, and activities. Recipient understands and agrees that meaningful access may entail providing language assistance services, including oral interpretation and written translation where necessary, to ensure effective communication in the Recipient’s programs, services, and activities.

3. Recipient agrees to consider the need for language services for LEP persons when Recipient develops applicable budgets and conducts programs, services, and activities. As a resource, the Department of the Treasury has published its LEP guidance at 70 FR 6067. For more information on taking reasonable steps to provide meaningful access for LEP persons, please visit http://www.lep.gov.

4. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that compliance with the assurances constitutes a condition of continued receipt of federal financial assistance and is binding upon Recipient and Recipient’s successors, transferees, and assignees for the period in which such assistance is provided.

5. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that it must require any sub-grantees, contractors, subcontractors, successors, transferees, and assignees to comply with assurances 1-4 above, and agrees to incorporate the following language in every contract or agreement subject to Title VI and its regulations between the Recipient and the Recipient’s sub-grantees, contractors, subcontractors, successors, transferees, and assignees:

The sub-grantee, contractor, subcontractor, successor, transferee, and assignee shall comply with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits recipients of federal financial assistance from excluding from a program or activity, denying benefits of, or otherwise discriminating against a person on the basis of race, color, or national origin (42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq.), as implemented by the Department of the Treasury’s Title VI regulations, 31 CFR Part 22, which are herein incorporated by reference and made a part of this contract (or agreement). Title VI also includes protection to persons with “Limited English Proficiency” in any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance, 42 U.S.C. § 2000d et seq., as implemented by the Department of the Treasury’s Title VI regulations, 31 CFR Part 22, and herein incorporated by reference and made a part of this contract or agreement.

6. Recipient understands and agrees that if any real property or structure is provided or improved with the aid of federal financial assistance by the Department of the Treasury, this assurance obligates the Recipient, or in the case of a subsequent transfer, the transferee, for the period during which the real property or structure is used for a purpose for which the federal 6 6. 7. 8. 9.

10. financial assistance is extended or for another purpose involving the provision of similar services or benefits. If any personal property is provided, this assurance obligates the Recipient for the period during which it retains ownership or possession of the property.

Enforcement may include investigation, arbitration, mediation, litigation, and monitoring of any settlement agreements that may result from these actions.

Recipient also must inform the Department of the Treasury if Recipient has received no complaints under Title VI.

9. Recipient must provide documentation of an administrative agency’s or court’s findings of noncompliance of Title VI and efforts to address the non-compliance, including any voluntary compliance or other agreements between the Recipient and the administrative agency that made the finding. If the Recipient settles a case or matter alleging such discrimination, the Recipient must provide documentation of the settlement. If Recipient has not been the subject of any court or administrative agency finding of discrimination, please so state.

10. If the Recipient makes sub-awards to other agencies or other entities, the Recipient is responsible for ensuring that sub-recipients also comply with Title VI and other applicable authorities covered in this document State agencies that make sub-awards must have in place standard grant assurances and review procedures to demonstrate that that they are effectively monitoring the civil rights compliance of subrecipients.

The United States of America has the right to seek judicial enforcement of the terms of this assurances document and nothing in this document alters or limits the federal enforcement measures that the United States may take in order to address violations of this document or applicable federal law.

Under penalty of perjury, the undersigned official(s) certifies that official(s) has read and understood the Recipient’s obligations as herein described, that any information submitted in conjunction with this assurances document is accurate and complete, and that the Recipient is in compliance with the aforementioned nondiscrimination requirements.

CITY OF MODESTO

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

August 27, 2024
Date: August 07, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Will Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal and Rodent Control Services
CONTACT: Jeff Daniels, Wastewater Division Manager, [email protected], 209-577-6255
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving an 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. (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 Parks Recreation and Neighborhoods (PRN) Citywide landscaping services Agreement with Grover Landscape Services, Inc. (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 stations, stormwater basins, and the treatment facilities as described in Exhibit C, encompasses a much broader set of requirements than the PRN Citywide On-Call Vegetation Management Services. #14..

City Council, August 27, 2024
Landscape Maintenance, Weed Abatement, Trash Removal, and Rodent Control Services

Page 2 of 4 ends

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

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.

The successful Contractor shall furnish all labor, chemicals and materials, equipment, fuel, tools, licenses and insurance necessary to perform the required services outlined in this IFB. The successful Contractor shall have an adequate amount of staffing and equipment to complete the services outlined in this IFB.

1.1 TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STORM BASINS:

The Wastewater Division, Stormwater Collections has twenty-five (25) storm basins as listed on ATTACHMENT A. It is very important to maintain the integrity of the storm basins to have as much storage capacity as possible. This allows the basins to be used to their full potential, ensuring capacity for the removal of storm water from streets during heavy rain events, thus reducing a public safety hazard. 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.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:

August 27, 2024
Date: July 31, 2024
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Generator Repair and Preventive Maintenance Agreements CONTACT: Manuel Martinez, Acting Water Division Manager, [email protected], 209-342-4592
DESCRIPTION:

Consider approving 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. (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.

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. #15..
