CITY OF MODESTO
COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
April 28, 2026
Date: March 9, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: DeAnna Christensen, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: January and February 2026 Grant Application and Awards CONTACT: Maria Garnica, Accounting Manager, [email protected] 209-577-5249
DESCRIPTION:
Consider accepting an Informational Report on the January and February 2026 Grant Applications and Awards. (Funding Source: Not Applicable) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This item supports the City of Modesto 2025-2026 Strategic Plan focus of Governance and Service Delivery under Goal H: Develop a Strategy for Long-Term Financial Sustainability.
BACKGROUND:
The Finance Department coordinated with California Consulting to update the Administrative Directive 7.2, “Grant Management.” The revised directive was updated on November 04, 2024, to streamline the grant management process and to establish better controls on local match requirements, including potential future costs which could be required as part of a grant agreement.
This directive has eliminated the requirement to go to Council for the application and acceptance of grant awards if the grant does not require local match contributions exceeding $100,000. Grant applications and awards that require a local match contribution which exceeds $100,000 must be approved by City Council after the Director of Finance and City Manager’s approval. City Manager is authorized to approve all grant applications and awards which exceed $25,000 and those which require local match contribution under $100,000. The Director of Finance is authorized to approve grant applications and awards under $25,000 with no local funding requirements. All grant applications and awards require the approval of the Director of Finance. Departments #9..

City Council, April 28, 2026
January and February 2026 Grant Application and Awards
may be required to obtain Council’s approval for grant applications and awards with no local match at the discretion of the City Manager.
Due to the need for quick turnaround on grant application and award acceptance required by the granting agencies, this directive allows for City departments to apply for more grants within the grant application periods and provide quick response to award acceptance deadlines.
The Finance Department will inform Council of all grant activity by preparing a bi-monthly informational report on both grant applications and awards. The Finance Department has implemented a grant management software, eCivis, which established a workflow approval process and serves as a centralized database of all City grant applications and awards and as a research tool for grants for all City Departments. City departments continue to actively pursue new grant opportunities as part of notifications received from federal, state, and local agencies they have subscribed to, such as Department of Housing, Department of Transportation, State Water Resources Control Board, Department of Justice and professional government associations. City departments have staff assigned to monitor these grant application notices to determine if the City meets the required qualifications to apply for the grant.
On September 9, 2025, under Resolutions 2025-330, City Council approved a prequalified local consultant list for Civil Engineering services for a period of five (5) to the following four (4) firms BKF Engineers, Black Water Consulting Engineers, Inc. NorthStar Engineering Group, Inc and Siegfried Engineering, Inc. Services to be provided by these firms include but is not limited to grant research, grant writing and grant management.
DISCUSSION:
During the months of January and February 2026, City Manager and Director of Finance approved the following application which required no local match contribution.
Modesto Police Department

To provide a safe working environment for the firefighters and still maintain an effective emergency response to the downtown area, the decision was made to vacate the Administration Building adjacent to Fire Station 1 and move the firefighters into that building as living quarters. This left the Administration staff without a permanent space to work and temporarily staffed two (2) additional locations; and
WHEREAS, Fire Department staff worked with the City’s real estate division to find a long-term lease for adequate office space to accommodate all #11..

administrative staff in the downtown area. Ongoing issues at Fire Station 1 and the relocation of the firefighters into the Administration Building expedited the need for securing a long-term office building. The property located at 409 12th Street accommodated the needs of the organization, as well as provided fiscal efficiency, by securing higher quality space that can accommodate all necessary staff in a single location for a nominal increase in cost over the original 3-year term of the proposed lease; and
WHEREAS, to provide continuity of Administration operations, the Modesto Fire Department (MFD) requires an amendment to the current Lease Agreement with Beard Land Improvement Company to extend the lease of the MFD Administration building located at 409 12th Street, Modesto, CA. This amendment will also include the increase in funding needed to accommodate the three (3) year lease extension; and
WHEREAS, Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-5.202 authorizes the City to acquire, construct, enlarge, remodel, renovate, alter, improve, furnish, equip and lease as lessee, with the proceeds of bonds, a facility solely for the purpose of selling or leasing as lessor such facility to such participating party, and is further authorized to make any contracts for such purposes. The City is also authorized to contract with such participating party to undertake on behalf of the City to construct, enlarge, remodel, renovate, alter, improve, furnish, and equip such a facility. Therefore, this First Amendment to the lease agreement for 409 12th Street shall be authorized to extend the term of agreement through March 31, 2029; and

WHEREAS, this increase in funds will cover the monthly rent for this 8,820 square foot office site that the Fire Administration staff currently occupies. The monthly base rent will start at $13,230 and increase by 3% each year of the Lease Agreement for a total amount not to exceed $1,196,790 over the threeyear term. This includes the current term ($706,074) plus the additional extended three-year term ($490,716); and
WHEREAS, while the current increase reflects a move toward market value, it remains below prevailing rates. Year one of the First Amendment equates to approximately $18 per square foot. Based on a review of current market data, average asking rent for office space in Modesto generally ranges from $22 to $26 per square foot per year, with rates varying based on building quality, location, and amenities. When compared to these market averages, the proposed lease rate for the Fire Administration Building is below the average office rental rates currently observed in Modesto; and
WHEREAS, on March 10, 2026, via Resolution 2026-076, the Council approved the First Amendment to the Lease Agreement with Beard Land Improvement Company (“First Amendment”), extending the lease for the Modesto Fire Administration Building located at 409 12th St., in Modesto, Ca.
The First Amendment extended the term of the lease to June 30, 2029; and WHEREAS, after approval at the March 10, 2026, Council meeting, it was found that Resolution 2026-76 was signed and ratified with the incorrect term end date of March 31, 2033.

5. Option. This Section 5 supersedes and replaces in full all options to extend the term of the Lease or similar rights otherwise contained in the Lease, if any, which shall be of no further force or effect. References to Section 15 refer to the section contained in the Lease. (a) Definition. As used in this Section 5 the word “Option” means the right or option to extend the term of the Lease.
(b) Options Tied to Lease. The Option herein granted to Tenant is not assignable separate and apart from the Lease, nor may the Option be separated from the Lease in any manner, either by reservation or otherwise.
(c) Multiple Options. In the event that Tenant has multiple Options to extend the Lease a later Option cannot be exercised unless the prior Option to extend the Lease has been so exercised.
(d) Effect of Default on Options.
(i) Tenant shall have no right to exercise an Option, notwithstanding any provision in the grant of Option to the contrary, (i) during the time commencing from the date Landlord gives to Tenant a notice of default and continuing until the noncompliance alleged in said notice of default is cured, or (ii) during the period of time commencing on the date after a monetary obligation to Landlord is due from Tenant and unpaid (without any necessity for notice thereof to Tenant) and continuing until the obligation is paid, or (iii) at any time after an event of default which does not require notice of such default to Tenant, or (iv) in the event that Landlord has given to Tenant three or more notices of default within any twelve (12) month period, whether or not the defaults are cured during the twelve (12) month period prior to the time that Tenant intends to exercise the subject Option.
(ii) The period of time within which an Option may be exercised shall not be extended or enlarged by reason of Tenant’s inability to exercise an Option because of the provisions of Section 5(d)(i).
(iii) All rights of Tenant under the provisions of an Option shall terminate and be of no further force or effect, notwithstanding Tenant’s due and timely exercise of the Option, if, after such exercise and during the term of the Lease, (i) Tenant fails to pay to Landlord a monetary obligation of Tenant for a period of three (3) days after such obligation becomes due, or (ii) Tenant fails to commence to cure a default specified in Section 15.1(b) of the Lease within thirty (30) days after the date that Landlord gives notice to Tenant of such default and/or Tenant fails thereafter to diligently prosecute said cure to completion, or (iii) Tenant commits a default described in Section 15.1(c), 15.1(d), 15.1(e), 15.1(f) or 15.1(g) of the Lease (without any necessity of Landlord to give notice of such default to Tenant), or (iv) Landlord gives to Tenant three or more notices of default within a twelve (12) month period under Section 15.1 of the Lease, whether or not the defaults are cured during the twelve (12) month period prior to the time that Tenant intends to exercise the subject Option. (e) Option to Extend. Tenant shall have four (4) consecutive options to extend the term of the Lease for a period of one (1) year each (each an “Option Period”), provided Tenant gives Landlord irrevocable written notice of its election to exercise such option Docusign Envelope ID: E5ACAE10-EF29-4173-A82E-0468A1BE94C7 #11..

at least four (4) months but not more than six (6) months prior to the end of the then-current term, subject to Section 5(d).
(f) Rent Increases During Option Periods. If Tenant exercises its option to extend the term of the Lease, the monthly Base Rent for the extended term shall be determined as set forth below:
(i) The monthly Base Rent during the first (1st) year of the applicable Option Period shall be the higher of the then current fair market rental determined in accordance with the following procedure, or the then current monthly Base Rent plus three percent (3%) (the latter of which is referred to herein as the "Minimum Base Rent"):
(A) Landlord and Tenant shall meet on or about the first day of the month following Landlord’s receipt of said written notice exercising the Option and shall attempt to agree on a market value of monthly Base Rent for the Premises (the “FMRV”) for the applicable Option Period. If Landlord and Tenant agree on such a market value of monthly Base Rent within fifteen (15) days of the date of such meeting between Landlord and Tenant, Landlord and Tenant will forthwith execute a written agreement confirming the monthly rental pursuant to this Section 5(f).
(B) If the parties are unable to agree upon a FMRV for the applicable Option Period within the time period provided above, then within ten (10) business days thereafter, Landlord and Tenant shall each submit to the other of them the monthly FMRV proposed by them (which shall be given to each appraiser upon their appointment). Landlord shall appoint an MAI real estate appraiser and immediately notify Tenant in writing of said appointment and of the name and address of the appraiser so appointed, and Tenant upon receipt of such notice shall similarly within the ten (10) business day period appoint an MAI real estate appraiser and immediately notify Landlord in writing of said appointment and of the name and address of the appraiser so appointed. If either party fails to appoint an appraiser within the time period set forth above, and such failure continues for five (5) business days following written notice of such failure from the other party, then the sole appointed appraiser shall be authorized to select the FMRV pursuant to this provision. The two appraisers (or single appraiser, if applicable) shall select either the monthly FMRV proposed by Landlord or Tenant as the monthly FMRV. If the two appraisers do not, within fifteen (15) days after the appointment of the second appraiser, agree upon the monthly FMRV for the Premises, then the two appraisers shall immediately appoint a third MAI real estate appraiser. (If they fail to do so, either party hereto may petition the Superior Court of Stanislaus County to appoint said third appraiser.) Within thirty (30) days following appointment of said third MAI real estate appraiser, such appraiser shall select either the monthly FMRV proposed by Landlord or Tenant as the monthly FMRV, and the higher of that value or the Minimum Base Rent shall be the Base Rent in the Option Period. The decision of the appraiser(s) shall be made in writing and signed by the appraiser(s). Copies of the written decision shall be delivered to Landlord and Tenant. The charges and expenses of the appraisers shall be paid by the party whose determination of monthly Base Rent was not selected. Each appraiser shall have not less than ten (10) years’ experience in appraising commercial properties in Stanislaus County similar to the Premises.

(ii) In the event the monthly Base Rent is not determined using the foregoing procedure until after the first day of the applicable Option Period, Tenant shall pay the Minimum Base Rent during such Option Period until the new monthly Base Rent is determined and, after the new monthly Base Rent has been determined, shall pay the new monthly Base Rent for the remaining months of the applicable Option Period and shall have ten (10) days after the new monthly Base Rent has been determined to pay Landlord the difference, if any, between the new monthly Base Rent and the Minimum Base Rent that has been paid by Tenant. (g) Extension Terms. Except for the adjustment in the monthly Base Rent provided by Section 5(f) and except as otherwise provided by this Section 5, the Lease shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect during each Option Period provided such Option is validly exercised and becomes effective.
6. Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly amended herein, all other terms and conditions of the Lease shall remain in full force and effect. The Lease, as amended hereby, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties and no further modification of the Lease shall be binding and effective unless evidenced by an agreement, in writing, signed by both Landlord and Tenant. In the case of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Lease and this Amendment, the provisions of this Amendment shall govern and control.
7. Brokers. Landlord and Tenant hereby warrant to each other that they have had no dealings with any real estate broker or agent in connection with the extension of the term or the other terms and conditions set forth herein and that they know of no real estate broker or agent who is entitled to a commission in connection with this Amendment. Each party agrees to indemnify, protect and defend the other party against, and hold the other party harmless from, any and all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, lawsuits, judgments, costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) with respect to any leasing commission or equivalent compensation alleged to be owing on account of any dealings with any real estate broker or agent occurring by, through, or under the indemnifying party.
8. Authority. Each signatory of this Amendment hereby represents that he or she has the authority to execute and deliver the same on behalf of the party for which such signatory is acting. Tenant represents that it has not made any assignment, sublease, transfer, conveyance of the Lease or any interest therein or in the Premises.
9. Miscellaneous. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but such counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. An electronic signature or a signed copy of this Amendment transmitted electronically to the other party shall be binding upon the signatory thereto. [signature page follows]

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
April 28, 2026
Date: April 8, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
SUBJECT: George Hills, Third-Party Administration Agreement CONTACT: Christina Alger, Director of Human Resources
[email protected], 209-571-5126
DESCRIPTION:
Consider approving an Agreement for General Liability Third-Party Administration (TPA) to George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, CA, for a total amount not to exceed $2,511,800 over five (5) years. (Funding Source: General Liability Fund) STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
This action supports the 2025-2026 Strategic Plan’s Service Delivery Goals and Strategies – Build a High-Performance Organization.
BACKGROUND:
Due to factors that include rising claims costs and complex legal issues, the City of Modesto opted to transfer claims administration from in-house handling to Third-Party Administration (TPA) in 2021. The move allowed the City to receive expert claim handling, save on internal expenses, and allocate resources to other critical areas such as loss prevention and risk control.
Currently, the City of Modesto has a Self-insured retention (SIR) of $1,000,000 on a per claim basis. The City contributes a “premium” annually to pay for excess coverage that reaches $65,000,000 per claim beyond the SIR. The City receives around 300-400 claims on an annual basis, all of which require varying levels of investigation, reporting and processing. Rigorous mandatory reporting requirements, such as those imposed by the Medicare Secondary Payer Act of 2007, and the potential penalties associated with noncompliance highlight the importance of efficient methods for handling third-party claims. #12..

City Council, April 28, 2026
George Hills, Third-Party Administration Agreement
The TPA model allows the City to benefit from dedicated, experienced claims handlers who can draw on a large knowledge base of past experiences and current trends to assist in reducing both the exposure to liability and the costs associated with litigation. TPA's have specialized skills and knowledge that allow them to effectively and efficiently work with claimants and attorneys in investigating, negotiating and settling liability claims made against the City. The TPA acts as the primary investigator of liability claims and in an advisory role to City staff by making recommendations on the appropriate disposition (settlement or denial) of claims.
On May 25, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-185, Council approved the Award of Proposal and Agreement for furnishing of General Liability Claims Administration Services to George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, CA for a two (2) year agreement with three (3) one-year extension options, for an annual estimated cost of $400,000 and a total amount not to exceed $2,000,000 over five (5) years.
On November 25, 2025, by Resolution No. 2025-399 Council approved the First Amendment to the Agreement with George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, CA, for Third-Party Administration of the City’s General Liability Claims increasing the Agreement amount by $284,500 for a new total not to exceed $2,284,500 to complete the term of the Agreement.
The current Agreement is set to expire on May 24, 2026.
DISCUSSION:
On June 2, 2025, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit the procurement for General Liability Third Party Administration. On October 6, 2025, the Purchasing Division issued Request for Proposals RFP-00037 for the furnishing of General Liability Claims Administration Services on the City’s OpenGov public bidding website under various commodity codes.1 522 prospective bidders were notified online and via email of the bid opportunity. Twenty-nine companies downloaded the RFP document, three (3) of which were local vendors.
On November 18, 2025, proposals were formally opened in the City Clerk’s office and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestream. Two (2) companies chose to respond. There were zero (0) local proposals received.
An evaluation committee comprised of four (4) City staff members which included Human Resources, Risk Management, and the City Attorney’s Office evaluated the proposals and Councilmember Nick Bavaro was chosen to observe the RFP process. The evaluation was based on approach and methodology, overall RFP responsiveness and 1 91800 - Consulting Services, 91840 – Employee Benefits Consulting, 91866 – Human Resources Consulting Services, 91867 – Human Services Consulting (To include Mental Health Consulting Service), 91869 – Insurance Consulting, 91875 – Management Consulting, 94807 – Administration Services, Health, -95327 – Claims Processing Services, 95356 – Liability, General, 96116 – Claims Processing Services

comprehensiveness, qualifications, experience, and technical capability, conformance with proposal requirements and pricing structure/cost.
Based on being ranked highest in total evaluation criteria, the evaluation committee recommended the award of proposal for General Liability Third-Party Administration Services to George Hills Company, Inc., Rancho Cordova, CA. Liability claim administration includes processing, establishing loss reserves, investigating, and defending claims, accounting, providing loss summaries and loss-run reports and assisting the Risk Manager and City Attorney’s Office in the evaluation, management and defense of litigated claims from inception through disposition.
Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to be formally bid. Based on the responsive and responsible highest scored proposer offering the General Liability ThirdParty Administration Services which conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code, 8-3.203 City staff recommends the award of proposal for General Liability Third-Party Administration Services to George Hills Company, Inc., Rancho Cordova, CA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Third-party administration (TPA) of the general liability program reduces overall costs by allowing adjustors with specialized skills and training to handle claims. The table below represents an internal estimate of the one-year cost to administer the general liability program internally and with a TPA. By utilizing a TPA, we save 10% on claims payments over the course of an average year, essentially allowing the agreement to pay for itself over time. Third-party administration also reduces the commitment of Risk Division staff, allowing them to focus on other critical elements of loss prevention & control as a further benefit.

This creates an opportunity for the City to offset losses caused by third parties and the subrogation fee would not be counted toward the estimate of $502,360 annually.
The overall agreement total was calculated by forecasting Consumer Price Index (CPI) percentage increases based on an average of the CPI index over the last twelve (12) months. City staff projected annual increases based on this estimated forecast. Annual increases will be calculated using the current CPI index at the time of the requested increase.

EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT
WHEREAS, in 2021 the City opted to transfer claims administration from inhouse handling to Third-Party Administration (TPA) due to rising claims costs and complex legal issues. The move allowed the City to receive expert claim handling, save on internal expenses, and allocate resources to other critical areas such as loss prevention and risk control, and
WHEREAS, the City has a Self-insured retention (SIR) of $1,000,000, on a per claim basis. The City contributes a “premium” annually to pay for excess coverage that reaches $65,000,0000 per claim beyond the SIR. The City receives 300-400 claims on an annual basis, all of which require varying levels of investigation, reporting, and processing. Rigorous mandatory reporting requirements, such as those imposed by the Medicare Secondary Payer Act of 2007, and the associated penalties associated with non-compliance highlight the importance of efficient claim handling method; and WHEREAS, the TPA model allows the City to benefit from dedicated, experienced claims handlers who can draw on a large knowledge base of past experiences and current trends to assist in reducing both the exposure to liability and the costs associated with litigation. TPA's have specialized skills and knowledge that allow them to effectively and efficiently work with claimants and attorneys in investigating, negotiating and settling liability claims made against the City. The TPA #12..

WHEREAS, on May 25, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-185, Council approved the Award of Proposal and Agreement for furnishing of General Liability Claims Administration Services to George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, ca for a two (2) year agreement with three (3) one-year extension options, for an annual estimated cost of $400,000 and a total amount not to exceed $2,000,000 over five (5) years; and WHEREAS, on November 25, 2025, by Resolution No. 2025-399, Council approved the First Amendment to the Agreement with George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, CA, for Third-Party Administration of the City’s General Liability Claim increasing the agreement amount by $284,500 and new total not to exceed of $2,284,500 to complete the term of the agreement; and
WHEREAS, the current Agreement is set to expire on May 24,2026, necessitating a new contract; and
WHEREAS, Modesto Municipal Code Section 8-3.203 generally requires all purchases, which meet or exceed $100,000 for material, equipment, or contractual services to follow formal bid procedures. The award of proposal and contract for general liability third-party administration services to George Hills Company, Rancho Cordova, CA, conforms to the Municipal Code 8-3.203 because they had the highest-ranking score.

Any contract award to result from this RFP process and Proposer’s submission of a Proposal 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 Proposer until all persons with a direct or indirect financial interest of greater than $2,000 in the Proposer are identified by name.
Proposer must therefore complete this Financial Interest Disclosure Form, 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.

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 Proposer 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.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Financial Interest Disclosure is not required for a Proposer meeting the financial criteria for listing on the New York or the Pacific Stock exchanges unless it is reasonably foreseeable that a City Council decision will increase or decrease that entity's gross revenues or expenses by one million dollars ($1,000,000) or more and the requirements of Modesto Municipal Code Section 2-
10.03(h) are satisfied.
It is the legal obligation of all applicants for approval of an agreement or of an application for development rights to verify in writing, under penalty of perjury, that the identity of each person having a material financial interest in the Proposer is true, correct and complete. By signing below, the applicant understands that this information is provided under penalty of perjury, and that intentionally supplying misinformation or deception may result in either invalidation of the agreement or application, or criminal prosecution for misdemeanor violation of the Modesto Municipal Code, or both.

COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE OF MEETING:
April 28, 2026
Date: April 8, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Joseph P. Lopez, City Manager
FROM: William Wong, Director of Utilities
SUBJECT: Agreement for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site Services
CONTACT: Jeff Daniels, Wastewater Division Manager, [email protected], 209-577-6255
DESCRIPTION:
Consider approving an Agreement for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site Services with Bertolotti Modesto Disposal, Inc., Modesto, CA, for a total amount not to exceed $158,950 over five (5) years. (Funding Source: Sewer Operations Fund)
STRATEGIC PLAN ELEMENT:
The recommended action supports the 2025-2026 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 uses Republic Services, Inc., Forward Landfill (Forward), to dispose of Wastewater Screening and Grit. Forward is located in Manteca, CA, and is the closest landfill to the City that is approved by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board to accept wastewater solids. The City must contract with a trucking company to move the City owned bins filled with the grit to Forward Landfill.
Wastewater Screening and Grit (Grit) removal is part of the City’s wastewater treatment process. Grit (dirt, rocks, sand, eggshells, etc.) enters the Sutter Wastewater Treatment plant through pipelines from the City’s collection system. Part of the treatment process is to isolate and remove these items. The grit must be profiled and properly disposed of at a permitted landfill.

City Council, April 28, 2026
Agreement for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site Services
On April 9, 2024, by Resolution 2024-121, Council approved an agreement for the transport of non-hazardous wastewater debris to disposal site services with Compactor Management Company LLC, Union City, CA. However, the vendor has implemented substantial price increases over the term of the agreement, resulting in costs that are no longer fiscally sustainable for the City. To ensure prudent stewardship of public funds, staff propose terminating the agreement with Compactor Management Company LLC in year three (3) and transitioning services into a more cost-effective provider.
DISCUSSION:
On October 8, 2025, the City Manager authorized the Purchasing Manager to solicit the procurement for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site Services. On December 15, 2025, The Wastewater Division issued an Invitation to Bid (IFB) – 00049 for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site Services on the City’s OpenGov public bidding website under various commodity codes1. 4,555 prospective bidders were notified online, which included forty-nine (49) local vendors. Thirty-five (35) companies downloaded the IFB document from OpenGov.
City staff scheduled a mandatory site walk for prospective bidders for January 7, 2026, and three (3) vendors attended.
On January 23, 2026, bids were formally opened in the City Clerk’s office and broadcast via Microsoft Teams Livestream. Two (2) vendors 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 transport of non-hazardous wastewater debris to disposal site services agreement to Bertolotti Modesto Disposal Inc., Modesto, CA, for a (2) two-year agreement with (3) three one-year extension options for an estimated annual amount of $29,645, for a total amount not to exceed $158,946, over five (5) years.
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 based on providing the lowest responsive and responsible bid which conforms to the Modesto Municipal Code, 8-3.203. City Staff recommends the award of bid for the Transport of Non-Hazardous Wastewater Debris to Disposal Site services for the Utilities Department to Bertolotti Modesto Disposal Inc., Modesto, CA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Actual contract year expenditures for the current transportation of wastewater grit services agreement with Compactor Management over the past two years are listed below:
1 90682 Solid Wastes; Disposal Systems – Architectural Services, 91027 Garbage/Trash Removal, 95812 Bio-Solids Management Services, 96239 Hauling Services, 96800 Public Works and Related Services, 96871 Solid or Liquid Waste Disposal, 96895 Wastewater Treatment Plant, Operation and Testing, 96896 Water and Wastewater Treatment Services

2 5/7/25 – To Date $36,054
TOTAL $57,050
ANTICIPATED AGREEMENT EXPENDITURES:
Without being able to determine the exact number of loads there may be in any given year, staff must ensure that the annual estimated number of bins allows for any unforeseen process changes and needs for additional hauling. The new contract pricing for an estimated 49 loads per year at $605 per load is:
Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 NTE
Estimated Annual $29,645 $29,645 $29,645 $31,365 $33,185
5.8%CPI Increase 0 0 $1,720 $1,820 $1,925
Total $29,645 $29,645 $31,365 $33,185 $35,110 $158,950
The overall agreement total was calculated by forecasting Consumer Price Index (CPI) percentage increases based on an average of the CPI index over the last twelve months.
City staff projected annual increases based on this estimated forecast. Annual increases will be calculated using the current CPI index at the time of the requested increase.
Sufficient funds are budgeted in the Sewer Operations Fund in account 4210-44312- 53100.
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
This item was presented to the Economic Development Committee on April 6, 2026, and the Committee recommended forwarding this item to Council for approval.

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 Financial Interest Disclosure Form, listing by name all parties that have a material financial interest in the agreement, contract or development right.

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.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Financial Interest Disclosure is not required for a Bidder meeting the financial criteria for listing on the New York or the Pacific Stock exchanges unless it is reasonably foreseeable that a City Council decision will increase or decrease that entity's gross revenues or expenses by one million dollars ($1,000,000) or more and the requirements of Modesto Municipal Code Section 2-10.03(h) are satisfied.
It is the legal obligation of all applicants for approval of an agreement or of an application for development rights to verify in writing, under penalty of perjury, that the identity of each person having a material financial interest in the Bidder is true, correct and complete. By signing below, the applicant understands that this information is provided under penalty of perjury, and that intentionally supplying misinformation or deception may result in either invalidation of the agreement or application, or criminal prosecution for misdemeanor violation of the Modesto Municipal Code, or both. Negligent provision of misinformation shall be grounds for invalidation.

California Levine Act Disclosure
California Government Code Section 84308, also known as the "Levine Act", prohibits City “officers” from participating in any action related to a license, permit, or other entitlement for use (a “proceeding”) if such member accepts, solicits, or directs political contributions from a party to the proceeding or their agent totaling more than $500 while the proceeding is pending before the agency, and for twelve (12) months following the date a decision concerning the proceeding has been made. The Levine Act also requires disclosure of such contribution by a party to the proceeding.
Section 84308(a)(4) of the Levine Act defines an "officer" as follows: “Officer” means any elected or appointed officer of an agency, any alternate to an elected or appointed officer of an agency, and any candidate for elective office in an agency. The term “officer” is further defined 2 Cal. Code Regs. Section 18438.1, which states:
An officer of an agency includes only those persons who make, participate in making, or in any way attempt to use their official position to influence a decision in the license, permit, or entitlement for use proceeding, or who exercise authority or budgetary control over the agency of officers who may do so, and:
(1) Serve in an elected position, including an official appointed to an elected position due to an interim vacancy or an election otherwise canceled because the official was the sole candidate for the position; (2) Serve as a member of a board or commission;
(3) Serve as the chief executive of a state agency, or county, city or district of any kind; or (4)Have decision making authority with respect to the proceeding involving a license, permit, or other entitlement for use and is also a candidate for elected office or has been a candidate for elective office in the 12 months prior to the proceeding.
A list of Modesto City Council Board Members can be found online at: Modesto City Council https://modestogov.com/706/Council-Members (modestogov.com). The party making this certification is responsible for determining whether a recipient of a political contribution is a City officer prior to answering the following questions:
1. Have you, your company, or any agent on behalf of you or your company, made any political contributions of more than $500 to any City officer, in the twelve (12) months preceding the date of the submission of your proposals or the anticipated date of any Council action related to this contract?
___ YES If yes, please identify the Council Member(s):
___ NO
2. Do you, or your company, or any agent on behalf of you or your company, anticipate or plan to make any political contribution of more than $500 to any City officer in the twelve (12) months following any Council action related to this contract?
___ YES If yes, please identify the Council Member(s):
___ NO
#13..
- 551 -
Answering YES to either of the questions above does not preclude the City of Modesto from awarding a contract to your firm or taking any subsequent action related to the contract. It may, however, preclude the identified City officer from participating in any actions related to such contract.
HEREBY CERTIFY UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THAT THE FOREGOING IS TRUE AND CORRECT.
