TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The E-Saver™-80R and 81R are ultra-efficient low-voltage dry-type isolation transformers that meaningfully exceed the U.S. Dept. of Energy’s new minimum efficiency law, commonly referred to as DOE 2016. All E-Saver transformers carry a UL Listing and CSA Approval, with application appropriate K-factor.

The aluminum wound E-Saver-80R and the copper wound E-Saver-81R are both K-factor listed per UL 1561 and are K-7 rated per C57.110. Both models are compatible with electronic equipment all the way up to full load. The standard temperature rise is 130°C with a 115°C option available.

E-Savers have a common-core (3-phase models), 10kV BIL, 200% rated neutral, are 60Hz rated (std), built to NEMA ST-20, UL1561, IEEE C57.110 and other applicable ANSI and IEEE standards. Both primary and secondary terminals and voltage taps (typically six 2.5%) are all front-accessible. E-Savers have a 220°C class insulation system that is NOMEX-based with an Epoxy Co-polymer impregnant with technical performance characteristics that embed lower environmental impact, long term reliability and long life expectancy. E-Savers carry OSHPD and IBC Seismic Certification. The seismic bracing option provides a higher 2.28g certification. All E-Saver models come standard in a Type 2 ventilated drip-proof indoor enclosure made of heavy gauge steel finished with epoxy powder coating for durability and low environmental impact, and are UL Listed for 2” rear clearance - a significant improvement over the typical industry 6” limit. A wide variety of enclosures and options are available.

Low Noise: Keeping audible noise at a minimum is key. While the NEMA ST-20 standard sets levels referenced by industry only a type test, not a production test, is required – so transformers on actual projects may be noisy. Powersmiths builds 3dB quieter than NEMA standard values, and furthermore every unit is tested to ensure quiet operation. For very sensitive environments an additional 2dB lower noise option is available.

Management of Impedance, Inrush, Fault Level, Arc Flash: Powersmiths OPAL™ design best practice includes addressing key transformer attributes like impedance, inrush, fault level, arc flash, to ensure smooth integration into an electrical system, avoiding the negative impacts often associated with high efficiency transformers. See individual technical data sheets for comprehensive values for all parameters.

Impedance: For both the E-Saver-80R and E-Saver-81R, impedance is kept at or above 4.0% in order to manage downstream fault current and arc flash levels, and maintain compatibility with equipment interrupting capacity (kAIC) ratings. Higher impedance is available to meet specific project needs.

Inrush: Inrush currents are managed in order to avoid nuisance tripping of the primary breaker and to enable design engineers to use standard 125% rated primary protection, thereby avoiding expensive design changes that otherwise may be needed. Very low inrush designs are available as specific projects may require, for example some datacenter and medical applications.

OPINION OF LESSEE’S COUNSEL
January __, 2023
Alliance Funding Solutions, Inc.
12520 High Bluff Drive, Suite 345
San Diego, California 92130
Re: Equipment Lease-Purchase Agreement dated as of January __, 2023, between the City of Montebello, as lessee, and Alliance Funding Solutions, Inc., as lessor

Ladies and Gentlemen:

As counsel to the City of Montebello (the “ Lessee ”), I have examined that certain Equipment Lease-Purchase Agreement dated as of Janu ary __, 2023 (the “ Lease Agreement ”), between the Lessee and Alliance Funding Solutions, Inc., as lessor (“ Lessor ”), the Escrow Agreement dated as of January __, 2023, together wi th the form of Certificate of Acceptance and Payment Request (collectively, the “ Escrow Agreement ”), the Installation Agreement dated January __, 2023 (the “Installation Agreement” ), between the Lessee and Alliance Building Solutions, Inc., the proceedings taken by the Governing Body of the Lessee to authorize on behalf of the Lessee the execution and delivery of the Lea se Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Installation Agreement, and such other documents and matters of law as I have deemed necessary in connection with the following opinions. The Lease Agreement, the Escrow Agreement and the Installation Agreement are herein collectively refe rred to as the “ Transaction Documents .” Based upon the foregoing examination and upon an ex amination of such other documents and matters of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate, I am of the opinion that:

1. The Lessee is a political subdivision of the Sta te of California and operates under a Governing Board, and the laws of the State of California with full power and authority to purchase the Equipment and to enter into the Transaction Documents and perform its obligations thereunder.

2. The Transaction Documents have each been duly au thorized, executed, and delivered by the Lessee. Assuming due authorizatio n, execution and delivery thereof by Lessor, the Transaction Documents constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of the Lessee, enforceable against the Lessee in accordance with their respective terms, subject to any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or other laws or equitable principles affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

3. The Equipment to be leased pursuant to the Lease Agreement constitutes personal property and, when subjected to use by the Lessee, will not be a fixture under applicable law.

Page 218 of 456 ends

Exhibit G-2
129172475v1

4. The Lessee has complied with any applicable publ ic bidding requirements and other applicable State of California and federal laws, in cluding [Note to Counsel: reference applicable California energy savings statute], in connection w ith the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby. By proper action, the Governing Body of the Lessee authorized the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and certain other matters, which actions were duly taken at a meeting that was held in compl iance with all applicable laws relating to the holding of open and public meetings.

5. No litigation or proceeding is pending or, to th e best of my knowledge, threatened to restrain or enjoin the execution, delivery, or p erformance by the Lessee of the Transaction Documents or in any way to contest the validity of the Transaction Documents, to contest or question the creation or existence of the Lessee or the Governing Body of the Lessee or the authority or ability of the Lessee to execute or de liver the Transaction Documents or to comply with or perform its obligations thereunder, or the security interest of Lessor or its assigns, as the case may be, in the Equipment. There is no litigat ion pending or, to the best of my knowledge, threatened seeking to restrain or enjoin the Lessee from annually appropriating sufficient funds to pay the Rental Payments or other amounts contemplated by the Lease Agreement or which would cause a Loss of Use or Occupancy, which would affec t Lessee’s obligations to make payments under the Lease Agreement.

6. The entering into and performance of the Transac tion Documents do not and will not violate any judgment, order, law, or regulation applicable to the Lessee or result in any breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any lien, charge, security interest, o r other encumbrance upon any assets of the Lessee or on the Equipment (as such term is defined in the Lease Agreement) pursuant to any indenture, mor tgage, deed of trust, bank loan or credit agreement, or other instrument to which the Lessee is a party or by which it or its assets may be bound. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the due and timely filing of a UCC-1, the Lessor will have a perfected security interest in the Equipment.

7. The authorization, execution, delivery and perfo rmance of the Transaction Documents by the Lessee do not require submission t o, approval of, or other action by any governmental authority or agency which action has not been taken and is final and non-appealable.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the same m eanings set forth in the Lease Agreement. This opinion may be relied upon by Lessor and purchasers and assignees of Lessor’s interests in the Lease Agreement.

Respectfully submitted,

5. Lessor and Lessee hereby authorize the Escrow Ag ent to take the following actions with respect to the Escrow Fund:
a. From time to time, the Escrow Agent shall pay vi a wire transfer the vendor or manufacturer of the Equipment payments then due and payable, or reimburse Lessee for amounts that it has paid to the vendor or manufacturer of the Equipment, upon receipt of the following: (a) a duly executed Certificate of Acceptance and Payment Request in the form attached as Exhibit A h ereto executed by the Lessee and approved for payment by the Lessor, (b) the ven dor(s) or manufacturer(s) invoice(s) specifying the acquisition price of the Equipment described in the requisition request, and (c) any additional documen tation required by Lessor.

Savings Guarantee
ABS warrants that Purchaser shall realize total annual project savings (utility savings, operational savings and capital cost avoidance) in excess of the annual lease payments. The effective date will begin on the date of final acceptance of the Installation project and receipt of final payment for the associated Installation Contract. The total project savings will exceed the installation contract amount and M&V payments associated with this agreement during the co urse of the useful life of the installed equipment. ABS agrees to complete the M&V Report on an annual basis and deliver to the Purchaser within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the anniversary date of final acceptance and annually thereafter. Project savings that are verified during the course of construction will be applied to the 1st year guaranteed project savings.

If the annual M&V Report demonstrates that the project will achie ve one hundred percent (100%) or more of the Guaranteed Project Annual Savings, then ABS shall have satisfied its energy performance guarantee obligation and the Purchaser shall accept the Annual M&V Report.

In the event that an annual M&V Report savings v alue (including any excess savings from previous years) does not meet the Guaranteed Project Savings in accordance with the M&V Plan, then ABS shall repair, replace, or substitute the E EM that is not performing at the required level, as identified in the M&V Report. Following corrective action, ABS shall re-perform the relevant M&V work for the affected E EM(s) and amend or supplement the M&V Report. If the sum of the E EMs indicates that the Guaranteed Project Savings are met or exceeded, then no further remedy shall be required.

If, after the opportunity to make corrections, the M&V Report, as amended, indicates that verified savings are less than the Guaranteed Project Savings as shown in the Savings Summary, then ABS shall pay the Purchaser the shortfall amount. However, under no circumstances will the amount(s) paid for the total of the energy savings shortfalls exceed the total lease payments associated with this contract.

The Purchaser agrees that project savings, which exceed the guaranteed amount in any one (1) year, may be applied to previous or future year’s savings to offset an energy savings shortfall. The savings guarantee will remain in effect for the term of t his agreement. Cancellation of this agreement will result in the termination of the savings guarantee.

The Utility Baseline Summary, as shown in Attachment 2, may be modified over the course of the Guarantee Period to adjust for changes in utility rates, number of days in utility billing cycle, square footage, energy using equipment, building occupancy and weather. This Guarantee is subject to the Purchaser’s adherence to the Control Parameters for HVAC and Control systems, as documented in the Installation Agreement Attachments. This guarantee assumes the annual utility rate escalator of 6% and annual solar production at 100% of the estimated solar production in kWh.

Measurement and Verification Methods
Measurement and Verification (M&V) of energy savings is a methodology based on standard industry protocol intended to provide reasonable assurance that energy savings calculated are realized over the term of the contract.

The development of the M&V p lan is based on the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP):

Concepts and Options for Determining Energy and Water Savings, Vo lume 1. This plan contains methodology that shall provide verification of the estimated program savings through direct utility billing comparisons, engineering calculations and/or field measurements.

M&V methods can differ based on the type, size and complexity of the project, as well as the availability of data, level of assurance of saving, financing constraints, and energy costs. The M&V methods used for this project are detailed herein and were selected to be the most cost effective while still providing a reasonable assurance of the savings calculations.

IPMVP 2012 Volume 1 provides an overview of the IPMVP Options, as illustrated below:

M&V Option

M&V Methodology Description How Savings Are Calculated
Option A
Retrofit Isolation:

Key Parameter
Measurement
Savings are determined by field measurement of the key performance parameter(s) which define the energy use of the EEM’s affected system(s) and/or the success of the project.

Measurement frequency ranges from short-term to
continuous, depending on the expected variations in the measured parameter, and the length of the reporting period.

Parameters not selected for field measurement are estimated.

Estimates can be based on historical data, manufacturer’s specifications, or engineering judgment. Documentation of the source or justification of the estimated parameter is required.

The plausible savings error arising from estimation rather than measurement is evaluated.

Engineering calculation of baseline and
reporting period ener gy from short-
term or continuous measurements of
key operating parameter(s) and
estimated values. Routine and non -
routine adjustments as required.

Option B
Retrofit Isolation:

All Parameter
Measurement
Savings are determined by field measurement of the energy use of the E EM-affected system. Measurement frequency ranges from short-term to continuous, depending on the expected variations in the savings and the length of the reporting period.

Short-term or Continuous
measurements of baseline and
reporting period energy, and/or
engineering computations using
measurements of proxies of energy use.

Routine and non-routine adjustments as
required.

Option C
Whole Facility
Savings are determined by measuring energy use at the whole facility or sub -facility level. Continuous measurements of the entire facility’s energy use are taken throughout the reporting period.

Analysis of whole facility baseline and
reporting period (utility) meter data.

Routine adjustments as required, using
techniques such as simple comparison
or regression analysis. Non-routine
adjustments as required.

Option D
Calibrated
Simulation
Savings are determined through simulation of the energy use of the whole facility, or of a sub-facility. Simulation routines are demonstrated to adequately model actual energy
performance measured in the facility. This Option usually requires considerable skill in calibrated simulation.

Energy use simulation, calibrated with
hourly or monthly utility billing data.
(Energy end use metering may be used
to help refine input data.)

The particular options selected for each EEM was based on a number of related issues including: EEM complexity, EEM cost, EEM savings, cost of M&V and the ability to accurately determ ine holistic building operations. If more than one option is selected, either option will be considered valid by ABS and the Purchaser.

The baseline and the post -installation energy use depend on various system and e xternal factors, such as utilized setpoints, energy demand, operating hours, occupancy, weather conditions, and energy rates . De velopment of the baseline, post installation consumption, cost avoidances and simple payback for each EEM covered by this M&V plan includes:
• Stipulated Values – These agreed upon values are important in the overall calculations for energy consumption, financial calculations, and operating conditions.
• Developed/Measured Values – These are the values determined by spot or short -term measurement. Values are determined based on a sound engineering approach to variable determination. Both values used for baseline consumption and values to be measured/determined as parts of the post installation are detailed. • Assumptions – Some values that are assumed in order to calculate energy use are necessary in certain circumstances. • Calculations – The necessary calculations for baseline energy usage, costing, and annual savings for evaluating the estimated and actual savings of EEMs.
• Pre-Retrofit Measurements – EEMs may have a section detailing the measurements required prior to the retrofit. These measurements are used to establish the baseline or adjustments required to establish an accurate baseline. • Post Retrofit Measurements – EEMs may have a section that details the measurements required if any after the retrofit is completed. This section is utilized to detail the type of measurements required for verification of the energy savings calculations.
• Adjustments – EEMs may have a section for adjustments. This section includes possible adjustments to the actual Energy Audit Report and energy information, appropriate adjustments to the M&V plan, and adjustments to any savings guarantee.

This section is utilized to anticipate changes neces sary due to field conditions and provide an appropriate response in the verification of actual energy and cost avoidances.
• Commissioning – EEMs may have a section regarding the commissioning process. This provides the detail for how the savings will be ve rified upon project completion, and the type of inspection that will be completed, and the billing method for verified savings. This section is utilized to provide a standard approach for each EEM upon project completion. • ABS will follow the agreed-upon M&V protocols for the measurement period and will prepare post installation reports with supporting documentation for the Purchaser.

IPMVP Option A: Retrofit Isolation, Key Parameter Measurement For Pool Boiler Optimization
M&V Procedure
This measure will lead to a reduction in natural gas usage because the old inefficient pool boilers of which one is non-operational are being replaced with two new high efficiency condensing pool boilers with an efficiency up to 97%. Due to the existing boilers being in disarray and the uncertainty of the existing boiler(s) being able to maintain the desired pool temperature set -point resulting in an inconsistent baseline natural gas usage the energy saving from installing the new boilers will be deemed achieved once installed. The energy savings is being treated a s an added benefit on top of the pool being able to maintain the proper temperature. The natural gas savings are expected to be significant from the optimization of the boiler system.

Measurement and Verification Plan
IPMVP Option A: Retrofit Isolation, Key Parameter Measurement For Installation of the Pool Cover
M&V Procedure
This measure will lead to a reduction in natural gas usage because the pool is currently not being covered resulting in a significant transfer of energy due to a high rate of evaporation. With the introduction of a pool cover during non -operating hours the reduction in the rate of evaporation will result in a significant wat er savings and natural gas savings. Due to the existing pool boilers being in mechanical disarray with only one of two boilers being functional for a period of time and the pool water temperature fluctuating during periods of cold outside air temperature the baseline energy consumption will be inconsistent.

Therefore, the energy savings will be deemed achieved once installed. The energy savings is being treated as an added benefit on top of the pool being able to maintain the proper temperature. The natural gas savings and reduction in water loss are expected to be significant from the introduction of the new pool cover when used.

Operational Savings
The Purchaser will realize operational savings resulting from the utilization of the new pool cover and the boiler systems operating at a reduced average load factor and from new system installations, extended warranties, and/or service agreements provided by ABS. The operational savings are based on CEC guidelines and are stipulated and met upon the completed installation of the energy retrofit contract.

Measurement and Verification Plan
IPMVP Option A: Retrofit Isolation, Key Parameter Measurement For Renewable Energy Systems
M&V Procedure
This option shall provide for the measurement of at least one variable pre - and post-retrofit with other variables allowed for stipulation. For this installation, the kilowatt-hour (kWh) production from the solar PV systems shall be measured and recorded.

Stipulated Values
The solar system savings are stipulated for the purposes of M&V. Values are obtained from the expected solar kWh production outlined in the Solar Systems Attachment . The solar kWh annual production is guaranteed at 80% of the expected value. The solar panel degradation factor (0. 5%/year), avoided energy cost ( $/kWh, based on the City of Montebello rate schedule) and utility escalation rate (6%/year) are stipulated for the solar photovoltaic systems. Stipulated values are agreed to by Purchaser.

Savings Calculations
The calculations for the baseline energy cons umption and post installation savings provided the basis for the overall financial viability of these EEMs. The following equations summarize the calculation of savings:

Electricity Production: Electricity production of the PV system is determined by recording the kilowatt hours (kWh) off the net electric meter and recording the results.

Dollar Savings: After recording kWh production, each site’s avoided energy cost ($/kWh), as shown in Utility Baseline, shall be used to determine dollar savings. Dollar Savings = (Annual kWh production) x (Avoided $/kWh) = Annual $ kWh Saved

Maintenance of System
Calculation of energy cost savings from the solar PV systems are contingent upon the Purchaser maintaining an active operations and maintenance (O&M) contract with a solar service provider for the term of the solar lease agreement. This is to ensure that the solar panels are clean, operating in the intended way and free from any disruptions or damage that is beyond ABS’s control.

Pre-Retrofit Measurements
Existing utility electrical energy (kWh) consumption as shown in the Utility Baseline Summary, as shown in Attachment 2.

Post-Retrofit Measurements
Electrical energy (kWh) produced from the solar PV systems recorded from the net electrical meter.

Adjustments
For this EEM, the following adjustments are allowed for the purposes of Measurement and Verification:
• Addition or subtraction to the square footage of facilities. • Utility rates, billing days or degree days.
• Addition or subtraction of electrical load at the facilities. • Changes in the solar PV system sizing, location and layout. • Changes in the conditions at or near any of the sites, which causes additional shading, soiling, or otherwise reduced performance of the solar PV systems.
• Adjustment to the Guaranteed Production values for weather shall use local weather data as recorded during the corresponding period.
• To the extent that the System output is negatively impacted by casualty, government regulation and or restriction that is beyond the Contractor’s control to remedy within a reasonable time period, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith a modification of the Guaranteed Production.

Excused Production Losses
For this EEM, the following events are excused f rom production losses and any necessary adjustments are allowed for the purposes of Measurement and Verification:
• Force Majeure Events: Lost production from the beginning of a Force Majeure Event until production limiting factors caused by the Force Majeure Event have been remedied.
• Grid Event: Lost production when a fluctuation in the Grid frequency or voltage causes the inverters or the System to disconnect from the Grid. The “Grid” is defined to be the system receiving power exported from the System. • Grid Outage: Lost production when a failure in the grid or Interconnection Infrastructure prevented energy from being exported from the solar facility. “Interconnection Infrastructure” means that utility -owned and maintained interconnection equipment (the substation including but not limited to transformers, switches, and protective relays) that is used to connect the Facility to the utility grid. Grid operator/owner ordered curtailments for any reason, other than an issue in the System, is a Grid Outage.
• Weather Events: Lost production from weather that limits or prevents safe operation of the solar facility including floods, snow, hurricanes, tornadoes, insolation-limiting wildfires and volcanic activity. • Purchaser Caused: Lost production when System dc capacity is off -line due to outages attributable to Purchaser’s decision to perform or cause to be performed, any investigations, studies, operations, construction, installation and maintenance work or other activities deemed appropriate by ABS at its sole discretion.

Commissioning
Commissioning shall consist of inspections and a final Commissioning report. Commissioning of the new solar PV system sha ll include securing the Utility Interconnect agreement, proper alignment of the solar panels and functional testing.

Measurement and Verification Plan
IPMVP Option C: Whole Facility
M&V Procedure
The Measurement and Verification (M&V) Plan following IPMVP Option C protocol is designed to evaluate the energy performance of the whole facility, not just individual EEMs. The energy performance is assessed through utility meters, whole- facility meters, or sub-meters. The measurement boundary encompasses either the whole facility or a major section of the facility where EEMs were installed. Option C determines the combined savings of all the EEMs installed at the facility and is monitored by the associated energy meter. Savings reported under this Option will include the positive or negative effects of any non-EEM changes made in the facility because whole-facility meters are used.

Adjustments
Adjustments will be computed from identifiable physical facts about the energy governing characteristics of equipment within the measurement boundary. Adjus tments are used to express both pieces of measured energy data under the same set of conditions. Two types of adjustments are possible:
• Routine Adjustments are used to account for any energy -governing factors, expected to change routinely during the reporting period. Routine Adjustments are completed by developing a mathematical model of each meter’s energy-use pattern. Typically, the baseline model includes factors derived from regression analysis, which correlates energy to one or more independent varia bles such as occupancy, weather, and metering period length. Values of independent variables over the reporting period can be inputted into the baseline model to predict what the baseline energy consumption would have been had if no EEM’s were installed. • Non-Routine Adjustments are used to account for those energy -governing factors which are not usually expected to change, such as: the facility size, the design and operation of installed equipment , or the type of occupants. ABS will monitor these static fa ctors for change throughout the reporting period. A djustments will be based on industry standards and sound engineering principles as they pertain to the specific affected system.

Metering
Whole-facility energy measurements can use the utility’s meters. Utility meter data is considered 100% accurate for determining savings because this data defines the payment for energy. The energy supplier’s meter(s) may be equipped or modified to provide output that can be recorded by the facility’s monitoring equipment. Meter data can be hourly, daily or monthly whole -facility data.

Savings Calculations
The calculations for the baseline energy consumption and post retrofit savings shall be completed in accordance with the industry guidelines set forth by IPMVP and ASHRAE. The baseline period and reporting period should use complete years of continuous data (12, 24, or 36 months). The electrical consumption reduction of the facility (measured in kWh and/or kW) shall be reported as Savings, or Avoided Energy Use, in which the savings are stated under the conditions of the reporting period and determine d by the following equation:

Energy Savings (Avoided Energy Use) = (Baseline Energy ± Routine Adjustments to reporting-period conditions ± Non-Routine Adjustments to reporting-period conditions) - Reporting-Period Energy

The price schedule of the reporting period will be used to compute the “avoided cost” on a meter -by-meter basis. The price schedule will be obtained from the utility and will include all elements that are affected by metered amounts, such as consumption charges, demand charges , power factor, and demand ratchets . In the event of a significant decrease in energy prices, the price schedule used for savings reporting will be that which prevailed at the time of commitment to the investment.

Cost savings are determined by applying the appropriate rate / price schedule in the following equation:

Cost Savings (Avoided Cost) = Cost of Baseline Energy - Cost of Reporting-Period Energy

FROM: René Bobadilla, City Manager

BY: Arnold Glasman, City Attorney

SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 23-07 OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MONTEBELLO CONDEMNING AZERBAIJAN’S ILLEGAL

BLOCKADE OF NAGORNO-KARABAKH (ARTSAKH)

DATE: January 25, 2023

RECOMMENDATION(S):

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Adopt Resolution No. 23-07 condemning Azerbaijan’s blockade of Nagorno-Kharabakh (Artsakh); and

2. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT:

N/A

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The 2022-2023 blockade of Artsakh is an ongoing event in the Nagorno- Karabakh conflict. The Nagorno-Kharabakh region is disputed between Azerbaijan and the breakaway Republic of Artsakh, which has a mostly ethnic- Armenian population and is supported by neighboring Armenia.

The only road connecting Nagorno-Karabakh with Armenia and the outside world, the Lachin corridor, has been blocked by Azerbaijan since December 12, 2022. This block has disrupted access to essential goods and services, including food, fuel and medication for the 120,000 Armenians living in Nagorno- Karabakh, effectively placing them under a blockade. This blockade has led to a severe humanitarian crisis, significantly affecting the most vulnerable populations. As a result, the transfer of critically ill patients is nearly impossible, and hundreds of families remain separated.

Page 315 of 456 ends

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2023

Page 2 of 2 ends

This humanitarian crisis was further aggravated by Azerbaijan’s disruption of the natural gas supply to Nagorno-Karabakh, which left houses, hospitals and schools without heating.

By sustaining the blockade of the Lachin corridor, Azerbaijan is breaching its international obligations under the trilateral ceasefire statement of November 9, 2020, under which Azerbaijan must guarantee the security of persons, vehicles and cargo moving along the corridor in both directions. The impediments to the use of the Lachin corridor set back the peace process between Armenia and Azerbaijan and undermine international confidence.

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA STAFF REPORT

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

FROM: René Bobadilla, City Manager

BY: Paul Espinosa, Police Chief

SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF BUREAU OF JUSTICE ASSISTANCE (BJA), PATRICK

LEAHY BULLETPROOF VEST PARTNERSHIP (BVP) SOLICITATION

FUNDS UTILIZATION

DATE: January 25, 2023

RECOMMENDATION(S):

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Approve the use of grant funding awarded to the Police Department by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), Patrick Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) solicitation funds utilization, in the amount of $21,628.49; and

2. Amend the Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget and increase appropriations by $21,628, in grant Account No. 265-8003-6010.60 (Grants, Bulletproof Vest Grant, Personal Protective Equipment [expenditures]) and Account No. 265-99-4198.84 (Grants, Bulletproof Vest Grant [revenue]); and

3. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City of Montebello is being awarded $21,628 from the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), Patrick Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) program.

Although the City must pay upfront costs, half of all related, authorized expenditures will be reimbursed by the Grant. Reimbursement claims will be submitted as expenses are incurred based on the needs of the Police Department.

The total expected cost for the purchase of the ballistic vests is $43,257. There is a 50% required match from the City in the amount of $21,628. The City’s 50% match will come from the General Fund. There is sufficient funding in the Police Department's Fiscal Year 2022-23 budget for this required matching amount.

Page 320 of 456 ends

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2023

Page 2 of 3 ends

To keep up to date on safety requirements, a ballistic vest must be replaced every five years. It should be noted that the overall fiscal impact to the City of Montebello is reduced because the Police Department would have to purchase these vests at full replacement costs if the grant is not accepted. The department applies for this grant annually to assist with the purchase of new and replacement vests.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The Patrick Leahy Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP), created by the Bulletproof Vest Partnership Grant Act of 1998, is a unique U.S. Department of Justice initiative designed to provide a critical resource to state and local law enforcement to help offset the cost of purchasing ballistic vests.

On September 21, 2022, the Police Department was awarded a BJA-BVP Grant in the amount of $21,628. The time period of the Grant is April 1, 2022 to August 31, 2024. Funding from this Grant has been approved for the reimbursement of half of the total cost of the purchase of National Institute of Justice (NIJ) compliant ballistic vests.

Every sworn police officer with the Montebello Police Department is issued a ballistic vest that they are required to wear while on duty. These vests have a manufacturers warranty of five years, at which time they must be replaced. This equipment is crucial to provide public safety personnel with live-saving equipment during the performance of their duties.

ENVIRONMENTAL:

N/A

ANALYSIS:

Montebello Police Department Policy 1024 states the guidelines for the proper use and replacement of body armor. Per policy, “all field officers in uniform shall wear their Department issued soft body armor at all times. The Administration supervisor shall ensure that body armor is issued to all officers when the officer begins service at the Montebello Police Department and that, when issued, the body armor meets or exceeds the standards of the National Institute of Justice.

The Administration supervisor shall establish a body armor replacement schedule and ensure that replacement body armor is issued pursuant to the schedule or whenever the body armor becomes worn or damaged to the point that its effectiveness or functionality has been compromised.”

Best practice strategies will be implemented to ensure that Department equipment is issued to personnel as required per Policy 1024.

Page 321 of 456 ends

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2023

Page 3 of 3 ends

SUMMARY:

The Department has been awarded a BVP Grant in the amount of $21,628.

ITEM # 8

CITY OF MONTEBELLO

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA STAFF REPORT

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members

FROM: René Bobadilla, City Manager

BY: David Sosnowski, Director of Recreation and Community Services

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP NO. 23-7) FOR CHARTER BUS SERVICES

DATE: January 25, 2023

RECOMMENDATION(S):

It is recommended that the City Council:

1. Authorize staff to issue a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 23-7) for charter bus services for the Recreation and Community Services Department; and

2. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.

FISCAL IMPACT:

It is anticipated that charter bus services for the Recreation and Community Services Department will not exceed $120,000 per Fiscal Year. The Department has budgeted approximately $75,000 each Fiscal Year in Proposition A Local Return Funds (Fund 210). Additionally, the Department will be receiving grant funding through the State of California’s Outdoor Equity Program. Based upon the approved grant budget, charter bus expenses for this program are estimated to be $45,000 per Fiscal Year. These funds are used for recreational trips and events.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:

The City of Montebello is seeking a contractor to provide charter bus services for the Department. The Department currently utilizes charter bus services for senior excursions, youth field trips, and shuttle services for special events. These expenses are funded by Proposition A Local Return funds. Proposition A Local Return funds are administered by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Authority (Metro) and allocated to jurisdictions on a “per

CITY COUNCIL AND PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JANUARY 25, 2023

capita” basis. Recreational trips and event shuttle services are eligible expenditures per the Proposition A guidelines.

The City has additionally been awarded funding through the State of California’s Outdoor Equity Program (Program). The Program aims to strengthen access to natural areas and open spaces for underserved communities. The City will be using the awarded funds to establish a trip program for underserved patrons in the community. As a part of the Program, charter bus services will be required to transport participants to various areas and are an allowable grant expense.

ENVIRONMENTAL:

N/A

ANALYSIS:

The current contract for charter bus services for the Department ends in late March 2023 and the City will be going out to bid to award a new three-year contract for services. Charter bus services will allow for the Department to provide various trip services for the community and continue to expand recreational opportunities in the City. This includes senior trips, special event shuttles, community trips, and youth field trips as a part of seasonal camp programs.

In order to accommodate the various programs that will utilize charter bus services, the Department may potentially award multiple contracts. This allows for flexibility to ensure services can be scheduled for all programming and is available in the event a contractor is not available on a given date for a particular event/trip. Services will be utilized on an as-needed basis and all contracts will be presented to City Council for approval, should they be $50,000 or more, per Municipal Code Chapter 3.21 et al.

The RFP scope will include charter bus services for the programs described above and will request pricing for transportation options of varying passenger capacities. The contractor will provide all labor and equipment associated with the scope of work and ensure the appropriate licensed/permitted vehicles, staff, and supplies are readily available to provide services for the City. In making the award, the City will take into consideration the bidder’s experience, fleet, pricing, availability, and safety record.

SUMMARY:

Staff recommends the City Council authorize issuance of a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 23-7) for charter bus services for the Recreation and Community Service Department.
