SUBJECT: Approve Transferring Funds Between Agreements for Administrative Investigative Services
CONTACT: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
[email protected], 209-571-5126
DESCRIPTION:
Consider recommending the Director of Finance to adjust Agreement totals between the Administrative Investigative Services Agreements based on consultant availability and department’s needs, ensuring the combined total does not exceed $500,000 over remaining term of the Agreements and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Various Funds) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item supports the 2025-2026 Strategic Plan’s Service Delivery Goals and Strategies - Goal J: Build a high-performance organization.
BACKGROUND:
Throughout the year, the City conducts administrative investigations of potential employee misconduct that may lead to corrective and disciplinary action. These investigations range in complexity and include comprehensive interviews of witnesses and potential subjects of the alleged wrong-doing. While some investigations may require only a few interviews, others have required several interviews to be conducted for a single issue. These can be time-consuming for staff, particularly when there are several investigations occurring simultaneously. Additionally, the investigator must conduct interviews and conclude investigations in a timely manner and in compliance with various legal requirements while navigating through highly sensitive issues that may lead to post-investigation legal implications.
For the above-mentioned reasons, the City utilizes the services of outside professionals to assist and conduct administrative investigations.

Finance Committee, September 22, 2025
Approve Transferring Funds Between Agreements for Administrative Investigative Services
On August 13, 2024, by Resolution No. 2024-287, Council approved the Legal Services Agreements with Renne Public Law Group, San Francisco, CA; Oppenheimer Investigations Group LLP, Oakland, CA; and Liebert Cassidy Whitmore, Fresno, CA and Consultant Services Agreements with Municipal Resource Group, LLC, Wilton, CA and DigiStream, Sacramento, CA to conduct citywide Administrative Investigations on an as needed basis, in an amount not to exceed $100,000 each for two (2) years.
DISCUSSION:
The Original Agreements have an annual not to exceed amount of $100,000 each for two (2) years. Having various firms makes available specific expertise needed to address the different investigative issues that arise. It is necessary to maintain the ability to adjust agreement totals between vendors based on investigator availability and case by case needs of departments.
Given the complexity and variety of cases and vendor availability, staff recommends allowing fund transfers between the multiple Legal Services Agreements for administrative investigations based on City investigation needs so long as the total administrative investigation needs citywide does not exceed $500,000 over the two (2) year term of these contracts. Given the complexity and uniqueness of recent matters, Renne Public Law Group and Oppenheimer Investigations Group LLP are conducting a significant portion of these investigations. The City anticipates continued services being provided primarily by these firms given their level of knowledge, experience and expertise.
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 projects or services.” By including the compensation language “unless additional renumeration is otherwise approved by the Director of Finance”, it will allow funds for the agreements to be assigned based on need.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact to this recommendation. The total cost will not exceed the existing total amount previously approved by Council. Below is a table summarizing the spending activity for Fiscal Years 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 to date.

SUBJECT: 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan and
Water Conservation Plan Update
CONTACT: Miguel Alvarez, Associate Civil Engineer
[email protected], 209 577-5348
DESCRIPTION:
Consider an Engineering Services Agreement with West Yost Associates, of Sacramento, CA, for the preparation of the 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan and Water Conservation Plan Update in the amount of $180,455, plus $18,046 in Additional Services, if needed, for an Agreement total amount not to exceed $198,501, entering into an associated Cost-Share Agreement with the Modesto Irrigation District and forwarding to Council for approval. (Funding Source: Water Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the 2025-2026 City’s Strategic Plan Initiatives, Goal D:
Provide safe, efficient, and reliable infrastructure through proactive community investment, maintenance, and sustainability efforts.
BACKGROUND:
The Urban Water Management Planning Act of the California Water Code requires municipal water suppliers providing drinking water to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 acre-feet of water annually to prepare and adopt an Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) every five years.
The UWMP defines the City’s current and future water demand, types of uses, supply sources, and supply reliability and resiliency, among other measures. The City has filed UWMPs every five years since 1985; the 2025 UWMP must be filed with the Department of Water Resources (DWR) by July 1, 2026.
#3..
- 20 -
Finance Committee, September 22, 2025
2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan and
Water Conservation Plan Update
The 2025 UWMP will include:
Water Supply and Demand Assessment for the Next 20-25 Years in Five-Year Increments
Water Supply in Normal, Single Dry, and in Multiple Dry Years (5-Year Drought) for the Next 20 Years
Report on Compliance with Distribution Water Loss Standards (SB 555) Provide Status Update on Sustainable Groundwater Management Act Compliance Activities (AB 1739)
Include a Water Shortage Contingency Plan Update (if needed) Provide a Seismic Risk Assessment of Water Facilities (SB 664) The 2025 UWMP will also serve as a foundational document supporting water supply assessments, local and regional planning efforts, and the City’s General Plan updates.
As with previous UWMP updates, DWR allows the City and the Modesto Irrigation District (MID) to prepare a joint document where the City’s portion is presented from the water supplier’s perspective and MID’s portion is presented from the surface water wholesaler’s perspective as each agency is a provider of water to urban customers.
A Water Conservation Plan is not yet required by the State and is supplemental to the information required by the UWMP Guidelines; however, such a plan serves to describe and promote the City’s water conservation programs and Modesto’s One Water Initiative.
DISCUSSION:
In accordance with Administrative Directive 3.1, Selection Procedures for Professional Consultants who Provide Architectural and Engineering Services for Capital Projects, a Request for Qualifications and Proposals (RFQ/P) was initiated through OpenGov for the preparation of the 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan and Water Conservation Plan update.
Proposals were received from the following firms:
West Yost Associates, Inc.
Zanjero, Inc.
A selection committee consisting of Utilities Department and MID staff members evaluated the proposals and determined West Yost Associates, Inc. (West Yost) to be the most qualified to prepare the 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan and Water Conservation Plan Update.
In accordance with Modesto Municipal Code 8-3.204(a) “Exceptions to Formal Bidding Requirements”, Agreements for Professional Services are exempt from the bidding requirements of Modesto Municipal Code 8-3.203 if competitive quotations or proposals have been sought informally from at least three (3) qualified entities. However, staff proceeded with the RFP process pursuant to Administrative Directive 3.1 and two (2) proposals were received as part of this solicitation.

City of Modesto | Joint 2025 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) & Update of the City’s Water 11 Conservation Plan (WCP) | July 1, 2025
requirements and the DWR Guidebook for the Preparation
of the 2025 UWMPs. The draft Guidebook is expected to
be released this summer, with the final version anticipated in the fall. Our team is committed to delivering a complete and compliant Joint 2025 UWMP ahead of the July 1, 2026 deadline.
To ensure continuity, consistency, and efficiency,
several key team members who contributed to the
2015 and 2020 UWMPs, as well as the Water Master
Plan, are part of the current project team.
2025 UWMP Requirements
UWMP requirements have changed dramatically since the
Urban Water Management Planning Act was first passed
in 1983. This is particularly true in recent years where UWMPs have become the primary document for reporting
on water agencies’ water conservation efforts, compliance requirements and water shortage contingency planning in response to unprecedented water supply conditions during the recent drought years and future threats due to climate change and environmental concerns.
Specific 2025 UWMP requirements include the following:
■ Include a water supply and demand assessment which
compares the total water supply sources available to the water supplier with the long-term total projected water use over the next 20 years (to 2045, preferably to 2050), in five-year increments, for a normal water year, a single dry water year, and a drought lasting five consecutive
water years (California Water Code (CWC) §10635(a)).
■ Provide a report on the City’s compliance with previously adopted 2020 per capita water use targets in accordance with SB X7-7 (Water Conservation Act of 2009, SB X7-7). ■ Report on compliance with distribution water loss
standards (SB 555) (CWC §10608.34(a)(1)).
■ Provide a status update on Sustainable Groundwater
Management Act (SGMA) compliance activities
(i.e., status of Groundwater Sustainability Plan
implementation) (CWC §10631(b)(4)).
■ Include a Water Shortage Contingency Plan with six (6) standard shortage levels corresponding to progressive
ranges of up to 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 percent shortages and greater than 50 percent shortage (CWC §10632).
03 PROPOSED SCOPE OF SERVICES
Background
Under the Urban Water Management Planning Act, every
urban water supplier in California that delivers more than 3,000 acre-feet of water annually or serves over 3,000 urban connections is required to prepare and adopt an Urban
Water Management Plan (UWMP) every five years. These
plans must include specific content as outlined by DWR. The next UWMP is due by July 1, 2026.
UWMPs play a critical role in water supply planning and management across California. They serve as foundational documents for preparing water supply assessments,
demonstrating compliance with water use efficiency targets, and quantifying key water availability and reliability metrics.
West Yost recognizes the importance of delivering a Joint 2025 UWMP for the City and MID that accurately reflects current and projected water demands and supplies, aligns with the City’s and MID’s water conservation programs and water shortage contingency planning objectives, and fully meets DWR’s requirements for acceptance. To that end, we will prepare a Joint 2025 UWMP that:
■ Leverages our in-depth knowledge of the City’s and MID’s water systems to efficiently develop a comprehensive
and accurate plan that meets both retail and wholesale
UWMP requirements;
■ Aligns with the City’s 2017 Water Master Plan to ensure consistency across planning documents;
■ Coordinates with the anticipated release of DWR’s
Guidebook for the Preparation of the 2025 UWMPs,
incorporating the latest guidance and regulatory
expectations; and
■ Maximizes the efficient use of City and MID staff time, streamlining collaboration and minimizing administrative burden.
West Yost’s extensive history supporting the City and MID— the Joint 2010 UWMP, the City’s 2015 UWMP, the Joint 2020 UWMP, the City’s 2017 Water Master Plan, and the City’s 2017 and 2021 Water Conservation Plan Updates—has
provided us with a deep and unmatched understanding of
the City and MID water systems. This experience equips us with the insight needed to accurately reflect current and projected water supply and demand conditions, and deliver compliance with evolving water use efficiency legislation.
Leveraging this knowledge, we will prepare and submit the Joint 2025 UWMP in full compliance with State Water Code

City of Modesto | Joint 2025 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) & Update of the City’s Water 12 Conservation Plan (WCP) | July 1, 2025
■ Provide a seismic risk assessment of water facilities (may reference a recent adopted local hazard mitigation plan or a multi-hazard mitigation plan which addresses seismic risk) (SB 664) (CWC §10632.5).
■ Provide energy use information for water supply
extraction, treatment, distribution, storage, conveyance, and other water uses (CWC §10631.2(a)).
■ Provide a lay description of the fundamental
determinations of the UWMP (CWC §10630.5).
Proposed Approach for
the City of Modesto/
MID Joint 2025 UWMP
Our strategy for efficient plan development is to craft each chapter of the Joint 2025 UWMP based on DWR guidelines
and required DWR tables for both retail and wholesale
suppliers. While the DWR Guidebook for 2025 UWMPs has
yet to be released, we thoroughly understand the required UWMP components, and we anticipate the required
organization of the 2025 UWMP will be the same as the
2020 UWMP. As such, we will not let a potential delay in the release of the DWR Guidebook prevent us from starting the preparation of the Joint 2025 UWMP.
Our standard practice for preparing UWMPs is to
incorporate the required DWR UWMP tables (formatted to
match the DWR Guidebook) into the body of the UWMP
text, as well as to include the required tables in an appendix to facilitate DWR review. Including the required DWR
UWMP tables in the body of the plan allows the reader to comprehend the document without needing to refer to the appendix. We also develop and include supplemental tables to fill gaps between the DWR UWMP tables and provide
additional information as needed to support the data
included in the DWR UWMP tables.
As with the 2010 and 2020 Joint UWMPs, the 2025 Joint
UWMP will present required tables for both the retail
supplier (City) and the wholesale supplier (MID) in parallel within each chapter. This approach ensures a clear and
concise representation of the interrelationship between the City and MID.
Our approach will deliver a Joint 2025 UWMP that
not only fulfills all DWR requirements but also clearly and compellingly communicates the story of the City
and MID water systems—their current conditions,
future projections, and the strategies in place to meet evolving water supply needs and changing demands.
The 2025 UWMPs are required to include water demand
and supply data through December 31, 2025; however, this data will not be available until early 2026. In the interim, we will focus on compiling available data and developing plan components that are not dependent on final 2025 data.
This initial work includes drafting the system and supply description sections and preparing data files in alignment with DWR table requirements. These files will be structured and ready for prompt population once the 2025 data is
available. This phased approach enables timely completion of the DWR-required tables and facilitates the preparation of the Administrative Draft UWMP shortly after the 2025 data is available. The proposed project schedule in Section 4 of this proposal reflects this strategy.
The Water Code requires a planning horizon of 20 years, up to 2045, for the 2025 UWMP. However, DWR suggests
a minimum 25 year planning horizon for land use planning actions and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance. Therefore, we recommend using a 2050
planning horizon for the 2025 UWMP.
We will structure the Joint 2025 UWMP in full alignment with the DWR Guidebook and utilize the DWR UWMP
checklist to ensure comprehensive coverage of all required elements. This checklist serves multiple critical functions:
it enables DWR to efficiently verify compliance during
their review, guides our project coordination and progress meetings, and supports our quality assurance/quality
control (QA/QC) process to maintain a high standard of
accuracy and completeness throughout the document.
The anticipated chapter updates and support expectations from the City and MID for the preparation of the Joint 2025 UWMP are summarized in the table on the following pages.

Approach to Project
Management
All project work will be managed by Bobby Vera, PE,
including project execution, invoicing, coordinating work of the team, and communicating the progress of the work to the City and MID. Our internal project management protocol includes monthly internal check-ins by a firm Principal to identify and resolve issues as they arise, before they impact the project, and a formal quality assurance/quality control review process for all product deliverables.
Regular status meetings will be scheduled with City and MID staff throughout the project to discuss data needs and progress. Draft chapters will be submitted to the City for review and comment as they are completed, with submittal of a complete Administrative Draft 2025 UWMP upon
completion of all draft chapters and appendices.
West Yost will use a collaborative approach between
our team and the City and MID staff to prepare
a compliant 20205 UWMP Update and a wellconceived Water Conservation Plan.
Targeted Data Requests and Focused Meetings: We recognize that City and MID staff have demanding schedules and limited availability to support this project. To make the most of their time, our approach emphasizes targeted data requests and strategically timed meetings at key project milestones. These sessions are designed to gather input and confirm alignment on evaluation assumptions and findings. West Yost is confident that this collaborative and efficient approach will result in a well-crafted 2025 UWMP and WCP Update that delivers
lasting value to the City, MID, and the community.
Meeting Notes, Action Items and Decision Logs: These
tools are critical for tracking and documenting project progress and decisions. West Yost will compile meeting
notes for all formal project meetings. An action item log and a decision log will be used to record and monitor key project details and decisions.
Quality Assurance: West Yost maintains a robust Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) program, supported
by a suite of specialized tools, including deliverablespecific checklists available to our project managers.
These resources are crucial in ensuring that our projects not only adhere to stringent technical standards but are also delivered on time and within the specified budget. As described above, the DWR UWMP Checklist will support our QA/QC process to maintain a high standard of accuracy and completeness throughout the document.
Proposed Approach
for the City’s Water
Conservation Plan Update
West Yost previously updated the City’s Water Conservation Plan in 2017 and again in 2021. These updates expanded
upon the demand management measures and conservation
strategies outlined in the City’s 2015 and 2020 UWMPs, with the goal of refining the City’s long-term Water Conservation Program and implementation roadmap.
For the upcoming 2026 update, West Yost will work closely with City staff to:
■ Integrate Recent and Planned Conservation Efforts
Reflect the City’s ongoing and future water conservation programs to document program successes and deliver
alignment with current priorities and initiatives.
■ Support the One Water Modesto Initiative
Incorporate the City’s integrated water management
approach, which treats all water as a single resource to be managed for maximum benefit.
■ Address New Regulatory Requirements
Project future Urban Water Use Objectives for the
City, including indoor residential water use targets, to inform water conservation goals. Provide actionable
recommendations to help the City comply with evolving
water use efficiency standards, including Water Loss
Performance Standards.
To maximize efficiency and data consistency, West Yost
recommends aligning the initiation of the preparation of the Water Conservation Plan Update with the final stages of preparation of the 2025 UWMP. This timing will allow the City to leverage the data analysis and evaluation efforts from the 2025 UWMP to inform and strengthen the Water
Conservation Plan.
Commitment to
Accessibility Compliance
West Yost is committed to producing documents that
meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)
required for public agency websites. The City’s 2017 Water Master Plan, the Joint 2020 UWMP, and the 2021 Water
Conservation Plan Update were all developed by West Yost in compliance with WCAG 2.0 AA standards. Continuing this commitment, both the upcoming Joint 2025 UWMP and
the Water Conservation Plan Update will also be prepared to fully meet accessibility requirements, so that all users, including those with disabilities, can access and engage with the content.

West Yost will also prepare a schedule for the preparation of the 2025 UWMP that shows key milestone dates, including completion of the Draft 2025 UWMP, public noticing
requirements, public review and comment periods, public hearing dates, and dates for the City Council and MID Board to consider adopting the 2025 UWMP.
Task 1-1 Deliverables: A chapter outline for the 2025 UWMP and project schedule will be provided to the City and MID.
Task 1-2. Progress Meetings
West Yost will coordinate with City and MID staff on the progress of the project via conference calls with key City, MID, and West Yost staff. West Yost has assumed that twelve (12) conference calls will be conducted at regular intervals during the preparation of the 2025 UWMP. These calls will be scheduled on mutually agreed upon days and times from Fall 2025 through Spring 2026. We will discuss progress on the various sections of the 2025 UWMP, key milestone dates, and any current issues or concerns.
Task 1-2 Deliverables: Meeting notes, decisions and action items discussed during progress meetings will be provided to the City and MID.
Task 1-3. Project Management and Quality Assurance/
Quality Control
Project management includes those general management
activities that are not specific to any one task, including overall project management; coordination of activities and communication with City and MID staff; and invoicing. West Yost will provide overall project management activities associated with this project. The day-to-day management activities will include the scheduling of resources to
perform the work, coordinating between project staff, and communicating project progress with City and MID staff.
For quality assurance/quality control, it is West Yost’s policy that all work products are reviewed at the principal level prior to submittal. For the City/MID Joint 2025 UWMP, West Yost’s standard QA/QC procedures will be supplemented
with the use of DWR’s 2025 UWMP checklist to verify and document the inclusion of all required elements in both the Public Draft UWMP and the Final UWMP (see Task 3-3). As part of the West Yost QA/QC review process, Amy Kwong
will check all data, figures, and calculations. She will review all documents for technical accuracy and our deliverables team will proofread and check for compliance to standards, including the Website ADA Guidelines for visually impaired persons.
Proposed Scope of Work
West Yost’s proposed Scope of Work includes eight tasks.
Tasks 1–7 are for the preparation of the City/MID Joint 2025 UWMP, and Task 8 is for the preparation of the City’s Water Conservation Plan Update.
■ Task 1. Project Management and Coordination
■ Task 2. Collect and Review Data
■ Task 3. Prepare Administrative Draft 2025 UWMP
■ Task 4. Prepare Public Draft 2025 UWMP
■ Task 5. Provide Support for the Public Hearings for the Draft 2025 UWMP
■ Task 6. Prepare Final 2025 UWMP
■ Task 7. Respond to Questions/Comments from DWR
■ Task 8. Prepare Water Conservation Plan Update
TASK 1. PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND
COORDINATION
West Yost will schedule a project kickoff meeting and
progress meetings. Meetings for specific milestones (e.g., to discuss the status of the City’s demand management
measures, to discuss comments on the Administrative Draft UWMP, to prepare for the public hearings) will be scheduled as part of other tasks. Meetings for the Water Conservation Plan Update are included in Task 8.
Preferably, the project kickoff meeting and other key
meetings, such as those to discuss demand projections or updates to other major plan components, will be held in person with City and MID staff. However, if such meetings cannot be held in person, video conference calls using
Microsoft Teams or other suitable platforms will be utilized to enhance collaboration and enable data and file sharing.
Task 1-1. Attend Kickoff Meeting and Develop Plan
Preparation Strategy
Upon receiving Notice to Proceed, West Yost will schedule a project kickoff meeting with City and MID staff to:
■ Discuss preparation of the 2025 UWMP, including the plan objectives, proposed organization, and schedule;
■ Define the roles and responsibilities of City and MID staff and West Yost;
■ Receive copies of City and MID data and current plans and studies pertinent to the 2025 UWMP (see Task 2) and discuss other data requirements; and
■ Set dates and times for progress meetings (see Task 1-2).
Based on the meeting discussion, West Yost will prepare a detailed chapter outline for the 2025 UWMP, including

Task 3-1: Prepare/Revise Required UWMP Sections/
Chapters
West Yost will use information from the Joint 2020 UWMP, where appropriate, to streamline development of the 2025 UWMP. Table 1 lists the specific chapters anticipated for the 2025 UWMP, along with assumptions for their preparation.
Preliminary drafts of key chapters of the 2025 UWMP will be submitted to the City and MID for review and comment as they are completed for on-going collaboration. Comments received from the City and MID on preliminary draft
chapters will be incorporated into the Administrative Draft 2025 UWMP prepared under Task 3-2.
Because the DWR Guidebook for the Preparation of 2025
UWMPs has not yet been released, it is possible that it may have different and/or additional requirements from what is listed in Table 1. Once the DWR Guidebook is available, specific requirements for the 2025 UWMPs will be reviewed.
If different and/or additional DWR requirements will require additional work effort beyond that included in this proposal, West Yost will discuss them with the City and MID.
Task 3-1 Deliverables: Preliminary drafts of key chapters of the 2025 UWMP will be submitted to the City and MID for review and comment.
Task 3-2. Prepare Administrative Draft 2025 UWMP for City and MID Review and Comment

completed checklist will be included in an appendix to
demonstrate to DWR that all the required elements have
been included in the City/MID Joint 2025 UWMP and will
identify the location of these elements in the UWMP.
Task 3-3 Deliverables: The DWR UWMP Checklist will be
provided for inclusion as a 2025 UWMP appendix.
Task 1-3 Deliverables: Project coordination and
communications; monthly invoices including status reports describing the work completed for each time period for the City’s UWMP portion and MID’s UWMP portion, as well as the City’s Water Conservation Plan, will be provided to the City.
TASK 2. COLLECT AND REVIEW DATA
West Yost will collect and review the data and available reports needed to prepare the 2025 UWMP. West Yost will require the following information from the City and MID:
■ Water Service Area Statistics (including number of
connections and population served)
■ Historical (through 2025) and projected (through 2050) potable water and recycled water (if any) demand by
customer sector
■ Historical (through 2025) and projected (through 2050) potable water and recycled water (if any) production by source

other water conservation program data
West Yost will prepare an initial data request that will be submitted to the City and MID prior to the kickoff meeting.
A second data request will be submitted in early 2026
to request water use and production data for the 2025
calendar year. We will actively track the data collection effort by indicating data received and data that is still outstanding and will report on the data collection effort progress during project status meetings.
Task 2 Deliverables: A data request list (initial list at beginning of project and a second list in early 2026 to request 2025 data) will be submitted to the City and MID and status updates on the data still outstanding will be provided.
TASK 3. PREPARE ADMINISTRATIVE DRAFT
2025 UWMP
West Yost will prepare an Administrative Draft of the 2025 UWMP for City and MID review and comment. Required
DWR tables will be included within the text of each chapter as appropriate.

TASK 7. RESPOND TO QUESTIONS/
COMMENTS FROM DWR
West Yost will provide the City and MID with assistance in responding to DWR comments on the submitted Final 2025
UWMP, if any. Because the exact nature or extent of DWR’s comments cannot be determined at this time, our level of effort to respond cannot be specifically estimated. However, for budgetary purposes, up to eight (8) hours of senior-level engineering support has been estimated.
Task 7 Deliverables: A response to DWR review comments
will be prepared as needed.
TASK 8. PREPARE WATER CONSERVATION

RE: Request for Proposals for Joint 2025 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) & Update of the City’s Water Conservation Plan (WCP)
Dear Miguel:
West Yost appreciates the opportunity to support the City of Modesto and the Modesto Irrigation District in meeting the requirements of the California Urban Water Management Planning Act and advancing your long-term water resource planning goals. Our proposed fee reflects our clear understanding of the scope of work, regulatory requirements, and technical complexity of developing a compliant Urban Water Management Plan and Water Conservation Plan. We have carefully considered the level of effort required to deliver high-quality work on time and within budget, while providing the flexibility to respond to evolving data, stakeholder engagement needs, and DWR guidance.
West Yost will perform the services based on the proposed approach described in our proposal for a not-to-exceed fee of $180,455. If additional budget is required to complete the work associated with preparing the Urban Water Management Plan or the updated Water Conservation Plan, West Yost will not perform work in excess of the budget amount without the City’s written authorization. The estimated breakdown of costs for the City and MID are shown in the following table.
As shown, the costs for the preparation of the Joint 2025 UWMP are allocated between the City and MID, while the costs for the Water Conservation Plan Update are all allocated to the City.

MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE
Coverage shall be at least as broad as:
1. 1. Commercial General Liability (CGL): Insurance Services Office Form CG 00 01 covering CGL on an “occurrence” basis, including products and completed operations, property damage, bodily injury and personal & advertising injury with limits no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. If a general aggregate limit applies, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project/location (ISO CG 25 03 or 25 04) or the general aggregate limit shall be twice the required occurrence limit.
2. Automobile Liability: ISO Form Number CA 00 01 covering any auto (Code 1), or if Contractor has no owned autos, hired, (Code 8) and non-owned autos (Code 9), with limit no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
3. Workers’ Compensation: as required by the State of California, with Statutory Limits, and Employer’s Liability Insurance with limit of no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.
(Not required if consultant provides written verification, it has no employees)
4. Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) Insurance appropriates to the Consultant’s profession, with limit no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence or claim, $2,000,000 aggregate.
If the consultant maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimums shown above, the City of Modesto requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits maintained by the consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the City of Modesto.
Umbrella or Excess Coverage
The Consultant may use Umbrella or Excess Policies to provide the liability limits as required in this agreement. This form of insurance will be acceptable provided that all of the Primary and Umbrella or Excess Policies shall provide all of the insurance coverages herein required, including, but not limited to, primary and non-contributory, additional insured, Self-Insured Retentions (SIRs), indemnity, and defense requirements. The Umbrella or Excess policies shall be provided on a true “following form” or broader coverage basis, with coverage at least as broad as provided on the underlying Commercial General Liability insurance. No insurance policies maintained by the Additional Insureds, whether primary or excess, and which also apply #3..
- 57 -
to a loss covered hereunder, shall be called upon to contribute to a loss until the Consultant’s primary and excess liability policies are exhausted.
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
Additional Insured Status
The City of Modesto, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds on the CGL policy with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of the Consultant including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations. General liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the Consultant’s insurance with coverage equal to ISO form CG 2010. If Completed Operations endorsement is required, a separate endorsement equal to ISO form CG 2037 is required.
Primary Coverage
The Additional Insured coverage under the Consultant’s policy shall be “primary and noncontributory” and will not seek contribution from the City’s insurance or self-insurance and shall be at least as broad as CG 20 01 04 13. The City of Modesto does not accept endorsements limiting the Consultant’s insurance coverage to the sole negligence of the Named Insured.
Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy required above shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, except with notice to the City of Modesto.
Waiver of Subrogation
Consultant hereby grants to City of Modesto a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Consultant may acquire against the City of Modesto by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Consultant agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the City of Modesto has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.
Self-Insured Retentions
All Self-insured retentions must be disclosed to Risk Management for approval and shall not reduce the limits of liability. The City of Modesto may require the Consultant to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of the ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention. Any and all deductibles and SIRs shall be the sole responsibility of consultant or subconsultant who procured such insurance and shall not apply to the Indemnified Additional Insured Parties.
Acceptability of Insurers
Insurance is to be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise acceptable to the City of Modesto.
Claims Made Policies (applicable to Professional Liability only) If any of the required policies provide claims-made coverage:
#3..
- 58 -
1. The Retroactive Date must be shown and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of contract work.
2. Insurance must be maintained, and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work.
If coverage is canceled or non-renewed and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the contract effective date, the Consultant must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of work.
Verification of Coverage
Consultant shall furnish the City of Modesto with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language affecting coverage required by this clause and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsements Pages of the CGL and any Excess policies listing all policy endorsements. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City of Modesto Risk Services before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive the Consultant’s obligation to provide them. The City of Modesto reserves the right to require complete copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time. City reserves the right to obtain a full copy of any insurance policy and endorsements.
Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of right to exercise later.
Subconsultants
Consultants shall require and verify that all subconsultants, or other parties hired for this work, purchase and maintain coverage for indemnity and insurance requirements as least as broad as specified in this agreement to the extent they apply to the scope of the subconsultant’s work with the same certificate of insurance requirements and naming as additional insureds all parties to this contract.
Special Risks or Circumstances
City of Modesto reserves the right to reasonably modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
Certificate Holder Address
Proper address for mailing certificates, endorsements and notices shall be:

Re: Cost-Share Agreement between the City of Modesto and the Modesto Irrigation District Preparation of the 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan Dear Mr. Franco:
The City of Modesto (City) and the Modesto Irrigation District (MID) will work jointly on the preparation of the 2025 Joint Urban Water Management Plan (2025 UWMP) in accordance with Section 10642 of the California Water Code, which provides the Department of Water Resources (DWR) with both agency’s water supply plans for current and future growth. The 2005, 2010 and 2020 UWMPs were also conducted jointly between the City and the MID under a single document prepared from both the water wholesaler’s and water retailer’s perspectives.
West Yost and Associates (West Yost) has been selected by the City/MID team to prepare the 2025 UWMP based on their experience and approach. The City will manage the consultant agreement with West Yost and is scheduled to award at the ___________________, 2025 City Council Meeting.
The City and the MID will share the cost of preparation and submittal of the 2025 UWMP as outlined in the Scope of Work. The consultant agreement with West Yost for the 2025 UWMP is in the amount of $133,309 which covers tasks 1 through 7. A separate effort under the West Yost agreement to update the Modesto Water Conservation Plan is a City-only effort and not included in this Cost-Share Agreement. The agreement will also include a ten percent (10%) contingency for additional work that may be needed.
The MID’s cost contribution to the 2025 UWMP tasks (including a 10% contingency) amount to $54,783 ($49,803 + $4,980), which represents an overall cost share of about 37%. The City and the MID will provide their own individual staff time as necessary during the development and review of the 2025 UWMP document.
The City will assume costs for managing the agreement with West Yost and is not requesting a cost share from the MID to cover this aspect of project management. #3..
- 60 -
This Cost-Share Agreement between the City and the MID stipulates that the MID will pay the City for the MID’s cost share of $54,783 to cover preparation of the 2025 UWMP. Payment to the City by the MID will consist of one payment in the amount of $54,783 to be paid no later than 45 days after award of the contract to West Yost or 30 days after signature of this agreement. The City will notify the MID of monthly invoices from West Yost for services rendered under the agreement as they are received and shall provide a cost breakout indicating the money expended from the MID’s cost contribution.
The MID shall have approval authority over payment of invoices for work performed by West Yost pertaining to the MID’s elements of the 2025 UWMP.
Under the consultant agreement, written notification from West Yost and authorization by the City is required to utilize any contingency funds and authorization would extend to the MID for the MID’s portion under the agreement. Additionally, if project costs to complete the project for the MID’s portion of the 2025 UWMP result in exceeding the budget for the MID’s portions of the project, then the City and the MID agree to meet and confer on a payment process to the City to cover such costs prior to the City requesting a budget adjustment. Monies remaining unspent from the MID’s portion of the project will be released back to the MID no later than 60 days after completion of the project.
This Agreement is by and between two independent parties and is not intended to and shall not be construed to create the relationship of employer, employee, partnership, agent, servant, or joint venture with City or any persons employed by City including subcontractors or employees thereof.
Neither Party, nor any of its officers or employees, shall be responsible for any damage or liability occurring by reason of any act or failure to act by the other party under or in connection with any work delegated to that party under this Cost-Share Agreement. The Parties further agree, pursuant to Governmental Code Section 895.4, that each party shall fully indemnify and hold harmless the other Party and its agents, officers, employees, and contractors from and against all claims, damages, losses, judgments, liabilities, expenses and other costs, including litigation costs and attorney fees, arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with any work delegated to or action taken or omitted to be taken by such Party under this Cost-Share Agreement.
This Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements, either oral or in writing, between any of the Parties herein with respect to the subject matter hereof and contains all the agreements between the Parties with respect to such matter.
The person signing this Agreement (“Signatory”) represents and warrants that he or she is duly authorized and has legal capacity to execute this Cost-Share Agreement. Signatory represents and warrants that the execution and delivery of the Agreement and the performance of the Agreement and the performance of Parties’ obligations hereunder has been duly authorized, and that the Agreement is a valid and legal agreement binding on Parties and enforceable in accordance with its terms.
By signing this Cost-Share Agreement, both the City and the MID agree to the stipulations as stated above.
