Task 10.1. Field Work Borings, Laboratory, and Analysis Geotechnical Investigation
Caltrans is enforcing the AASHTO recommendations of a soil boring at each bridge support locations where substructure width is less than 100 feet; minimum of two borings are required per location where substructure width is greater than 100 feet. For proposed embankments and roadway improvements, a soil boring is proposed every 500 to 1,000 feet. Based on this, EMI’s geotechnical field investigations plan is presented in Table A. Data obtained from some boreholes will be used for multiple design elements. The boreholes will be excavated using a truck-mounted or track- mounted drilling rig. Asphalt concrete cold-patch will be used to replace asphalt that is removed by excavations, and quick-set cement will be used to replace concrete that is removed by excavations.
EMI will prepare a boring location plan and this plan will be used to secure encroachment permits from Caltrans, City of Murrieta, and City of Menifee. Any other permits, if required, will be secured by others.
EMI field personnel will collect soil samples for laboratory testing, including bulk samples of near-surface soils and small disturbed and relatively undisturbed ring samples of deeper soils. The small disturbed and relatively undisturbed soil samples will be collected using split-spoon samplers at a vertical interval of about 5 feet, alternating between the Standard Penetration Test (SPT) sampler and the Modified California Drive (MCD) sampler. Samples of subsurface soils will be logged during the field investigation, secured in their containers or collected in plastic bags, and transported to the EMI laboratory.

Field Soil Infiltration Testing: EMI will perform two infiltration tests for the project. Depth of the infiltration testing will depend on the design invert elevation of the proposed BMP but is assumed to be no more than 10 feet below existing ground. Each infiltration test well will be soaked overnight and infiltration testing will commence the following day. Well infiltration testing will be performed following USBR 7300-89 method.
Laboratory Testing
Field logs of the boreholes will be reviewed to select representative soil samples for laboratory testing. Various laboratory tests will be performed on soil samples to determine or derive their physical and engineering characteristics.
Anticipated laboratory tests include: in-situ density and moisture content, grain size, direct shear, UU triaxial, R-value, sand equivalent, maximum density and optimum moisture content, and soil corrosion tests. Laboratory tests will be conducted in general accordance with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards or California Test methods.
Geotechnical Engineering Analyses
Results obtained from the field investigation and laboratory testing will be used to characterize subsurface soils and conditions and create idealized soil profiles for design purposes. The following analyses will be performed for the project:
• Evaluation of seismicity and estimation of Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) based on the Caltrans design criteria, and recommendations of an ARS curve for the bridge structural design. • Assessment of soil liquefaction potential, seismic settlement, and lateral spreading. • Foundation analysis for bridge and retaining walls.
• Assessment of global slope stability and settlement of embankments. • Evaluation of soil corrosivity conditions and recommendations for mitigation measures. • Design of pavement structural section in accordance with the Caltrans method.

Task 11.1. Environmental Permitting
VCS Environmental (VCS), will assist the Mark Thomas team to obtain the following regulatory permits:
- USACE Section 404 Nationwide Permit
- RWQCB Section 401 Water Quality Certification
- CDFW Section 1602 Streambed Alteration Agreement
VCS will prepare the regulatory permit applications, utilizing the Jurisdictional Delineation and Natural Environment Study prepared for the project.
VCS will prepare the Section 404 Application for a Nationwide Permit. The 404 permitting process will require that the Corps initiate Section 106 Consultation. VCS will provide the Corps with the Historic Property Survey Report (HPSR) and Archeological Survey Report (ASR) and accompanying Area of Potential Effect (APE) and our cultural staff will be available to coordinate with the Corps archeologist on the Section 106 process. While Native American consultation occurred for CEQA, USACE must also conduct its own initiation and coordination with the tribes and the State Historic Preservation Office. Additionally, USACE must initiate consultation under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, which in this case will be a simple letter to the United States Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) who will reply that take authority is covered by the western Riverside Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan through a streamlined Section
7. The 404 Permit also requires that the 401 Water Quality Certification be issued.
VCS will prepare the RWQCB Section 401 Water Quality Certification application. This requires an alternatives analysis related to the specific water impacts. The RWQCB requires the certified CEQA document in order to fully process and issue a 401.
VCS will prepare the Section 1602 Streambed Alteration Agreement. CDFW also requires the certified CEQA document in order to fully process and issue the 1602 Agreement. This Agreement will have conditions that must be reviewed carefully and can be discussed and/or negotiated with CDFW. VCS will assist the City in identifying conditions that may need to be removed or discussed in further detail with the CDFW.
The Project’s Environmental Commitment Record describes mitigation as “through a mitigation bank approved by CDFW or through payment to an approved in-lieu fee program”. VCS will assist the City in finding the appropriate mitigation. There are few if any credits available within western Riverside and therefore identifying mitigation may be challenging. Pursuant to the Riverside Conservation Authority, waters mitigation must remain in western Riverside. VCS is aware of properties within the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) area that support waters that may be available for applicant sponsored mitigation should bank or in-lieu credits be unavailable.
VCS assumes three field visits. One field visit to confirm delineation and up to two meetings in the field with regulators.
This Scope assumes the following:
1. The current APE and cultural studies will be sufficient for Section 106. 773
I-215/Keller Road Interchange PS&E
City of Mur rieta
2. Typically, the MSHCP Consistency Analysis, JPR and all or part of the Determination of Biologically Superior or Equivalent Preservation (DBESP) is completed during PA/ED. If that is not the case and the City needs assistance with the MSHCP compliance, VCS can provide an additional scope of work.
3. Coordination time with the agencies is subjective and can exceed estimates. We have assumed 150 hours and if all of these hours are not needed, they will not be billed. However, should there be a protracted negotiation with any of the agencies and the City, particularly on mitigation, we are not able to absorb these extra costs.
4. Mitigation options identification – 10 hours. Should applicant sponsored mitigation be required, a change order can be provided to prepare a Habitat Mitigation & Monitoring Plan and all of the associated documents.
5. No new State or Federal threatened or endangered species issues will arise. Should additional work be required related to new species, including surveying and/or permitting, a change order would be required.
6. Coordination with regulators is billed on a time and materials basis due to the subjectivity of the permitting process.
7. The City shall pay all permitting fees.

CALCULATIONS FOR ANTICIPATED SALARY INCREASES
1. This is not the only way to estimate salary increases. Other methods will be accepted if they clearly indicate the % increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of the labor to be performed each year.
2. An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not acceptable. (i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an acceptable methodology)
3. This assumes that one year will be worked at the rate on the cost proposal before salary increases are granted. 782

3. 4. Calculations for anticipated salary escalation must be provided.
This is not the only way to estimate salary increases. Other methods will be accepted if they clearly indicate the % increase, the # of years of the contract, and a breakdown of the labor to be performed each year.
An estimation that is based on direct labor multiplied by salary increase % multiplied by the # of years is not acceptable. (i.e. $250,000 x 2% x 5 yrs = $25,000 is not an acceptable methodology).
This assumes that one year will be worked at the rate on the cost proposal before salary increases are granted.

Other Insurance Provisions
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:

For any claims related to this contract, the Consultant’s insurance coverage shall be primary and non-contributory and at least as broad as ISO CG 20 01 04 13 as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials, employees, or volunteers shall be excess of the Consultant’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. This requirement shall also apply to any Excess or Umbrella liability policies.
Umbrella or Excess Policy
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 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.
Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy required above shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, except with notice to the City.
Waiver of Subrogation
Consultant hereby grants to City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Consultant may acquire against the City 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 has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.
Self-Insured Retentions
Self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. The City may require the Consultant to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention. The policy language shall provide, or be endorsed to provide, that the self-insured retention may be satisfied by either the named insured or City. The CGL and any policies, including Excess liability policies, may not be subject to a self-insured retention (SIR) or deductible that exceeds $25,000 [fill in the amount for your comfort level for the specific Consultant and job – it could be much higher, or in the case of a very small Consultant, you might want it lower] unless approved in writing by City. Any and all deductibles and SIRs shall be the sole responsibility of Consultant or subcontractor who procured such insurance and shall not apply to the Indemnified Additional Insured Parties. City may deduct from any amounts otherwise due Consultant to fund the SIR/deductible. Policies shall NOT contain any self-insured retention (SIR) provision that limits the satisfaction of the SIR to the Named. The policy must also provide that Defense costs, 799
01375.0006 2025866.1
including the Allocated Loss Adjustment Expenses, will satisfy the SIR or deductible. City reserves the right to obtain a copy of any policies and endorsements for verification.
Acceptability of Insurers
Insurance is to be placed with insurers authorized to conduct business in the state with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise acceptable to the City.
Claims Made Policies (note – should be applicable only to professional liability, see below) If any of the required policies provide claims-made coverage:
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.
3. 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 with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language effecting 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 and copies of the Declarations & Endorsements pages are to be received and approved by the City 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 reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time. City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
Subcontractors
Consultant shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors.
Duration of Coverage
CGL & Excess liability policies for any construction related work, including, but not limited to, maintenance, service, or repair work, shall continue coverage for a minimum of 5 years for Completed Operations liability coverage.

CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Coordinate and deliver responsive, effective community services.
DISCUSSION
The Murrieta Public Library (Library) fulfills a wide array of purposes for the community, all based on encouraging the love of reading and lifelong learning. Through the Library and its collections, services, technology, and programs, children of all ages have an excellent environment to meet, study, and learn about the world in a non-academic setting. It is where adults can expand their skills and find the answers and resources to resolve personal and professional dilemmas. The Library is where community members can gather formally and informally for cultural events and workshops or to share stories. It is a place where positive memories are created and where the foundation of a culturally, educationally, and economically developed community is successfully established.
The Library, constructed in 2007, does not currently have the space and facilities to adequately meet the increased community needs stemming from the City's increased population, with current programming over 100% of the attendance levels in 2007. The existing children's area is only 2,700 square feet (sf) and does not have a space dedicated to story time or children's specific programming. The Library's multipurpose community room is used for meetings, events, and adult and children's programming needs.
In March 2022, the California State Library (CSL) released the Building Forward Infrastructure Grant Program (Grant) that supports California's public libraries for capital projects addressing critical maintenance needs, improving energy efficiency and sustainability, and expanding access digitally and physically. Library staff applied to fund an expansion of the children's area and a new story time space, and the CSL approved a grant award for $1,505,625, with City matching funds for $752,813. The funding award was the catalyst for beginning the process to expand the Library's children's section.
The planning and design for the Murrieta Children's Library Expansion Project (Project) has been in progress since July 2023. City staff, along with the design team from SVA Architects, have worked closely with community stakeholders, including members of the Murrieta Library Foundation, the Friends of the Murrieta CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 2 of 8

Agenda Item No. 23.
community stakeholders, including members of the Murrieta Library Foundation, the Friends of the Murrieta Library, parents, and library staff, to plan a modest expansion that will meet the community's needs for the future. The team went through several rounds of value engineering, including reducing the size of the expansion and replacing some design elements with more budget-conscious solutions, to ensure the Project fit within a reasonable budget.
The result is a creative 4,500 square foot expansion space incorporating a multipurpose Storytime room that can be split into two separate spaces, a roomy area for book stacks, restrooms, staff offices, and storage. The plans also call for remodeling the existing children's library space to transform it into an engaging section for tweens. Lastly, the Carol Carson Garden of Verses outdoor space on the north end of the Library will be expanded, and features will be added to activate the space for a variety of exciting, year-round programming.
Attachment 5 includes images of the floorplan for the expansion, as well as renderings of the interior, exterior, and garden.
On June 18, 2024, staff reviewed with the City Council the various design concepts as well as the cost estimates and proposed financial strategy to proceed. Based on City Council direction at that time, staff advanced to the next phase of detailed design to prepare for the construction bid process based on the selected design.
The team recently completed the plans, specifications, and final bid documents for the Project. On June 13, 2025, a bid opportunity was published on PlanetBids and was also publicly advertised twice in a regional newspaper on June 18, 2025, and again on June 28, 2025. A total of eight construction bids were received:
Contractor Bid
R.C. Construction Services $5,188,600
Bilbro Construction Company, Inc $5,431,000
OptimaRPM $5,455,304
R2BUILD $5,567,400
Spec Construction Co Inc $5,583,000
PCN3INC $5,997,000
KYA Services, LLC $6,451,671
Newman Midland Corp. $8,671,353
The bids were reviewed, and the item prices were determined to be consistent with today's construction market.
Contractors were required to provide two alternative bid items. The first was a deductive bid item for replacing the specified interior architectural lighting on the ceiling of the book stacks area with standard lighting. The second was an additive bid item to replace the specified floor carpeting with upgraded carpeting that is easier to maintain and is expected to have a longer life span. The above bid amounts assume the City will retain the specified architectural lighting and upgrade the carpeting.
Staff recommends that the contract be awarded to the lowest responsive bidder, R.C. Construction Services, for $5,188,600, plus a fifteen percent (15%) contingency of $778,290, for a total contract amount of $5,966,890.
No bid protests were received for the Project.

Agenda Item No. 23.
Project Budget
In June 2024, staff presented the City Council with an estimated all-in Project budget (including hard costs, like construction expenses, and soft costs, like design, project management, furnishings, and permitting) of $7,053,000 based on a comprehensive construction estimate conducted at the time. These estimates were an educated guess based on the real bid results of hundreds of other regional projects. Making estimation even more difficult was uncertainty in the construction sector pricing, driven by inflation and possible tariffs on critical construction materials. A more recent estimate, conducted in March 2025, put the all-in budget for the Project at almost $9 million. Fortunately, the construction bids came in lower than expected, and the resulting all-in budget is just over $8 million.
It is important to note that the budget includes a 15% contingency on the value of the construction contract, which is considered industry standard and amounts to $778,290. This amount is requested to be committed to the Project for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise during construction. However, if only minimal issues are encountered, then the entire contingency amount may not be spent.
Item Amount
Construction $5,188,600
Construction Contingency (15%) 778,290
Inspection Services 98,000
Architectural Design Services (SVA) 580,603
Project/Construction Management, Labor Compliance (RWBID) 375,000 Water/Wastewater Capacity Fees (estimated) 50,000
Moving/Storage of Books & Materials 25,000
Fixtures, Furnishings & Equipment (Jan 2026) 620,000
Low Voltage/IT Services (Mar 2026) 300,000
Total $8,015,493
Now that the actual construction cost is known, some adjustments need to be made to the fees negotiated with the City's design team, SVA Architects (SVA). A sliding scale fee was negotiated with SVA, which means their design service fees decrease as construction costs increase. A purchase order for $302,300 was initially issued to SVA in June 2023 and was based solely on the amount of funding the City had for the Project at the time, which was $2,250,000. In June 2024, SVA presented an estimate for construction based on a cost estimate developed during the schematic design phase, and the City agreed to a reconciliation of the fee and issued a change order increasing the fee for services to $500,000. The change order also included additional funding for out-of-scope survey work and reworking the schematic design after the City decided to reduce the square footage of the expansion, totaling $25,000. Now that the construction cost is known, an additional reconciliation change order is needed to increase the total fee to $544,803, or 10.5% of construction costs, plus an additional out-of-scope task for $10,800 for additional topography work, bringing the total agreement amount to $580,603, a portion of which has already been expended to get to this point of the project. A Second Amendment to the SVA agreement is needed to authorize these services and costs.
RWBID Construction Management (RWBID) has provided pre-construction project management services for the Project since June 2024. RWBID was selected through a Request for Proposals process in 2023-2024 and awarded a contract for on-call vertical construction management services. In June 2024, RWBID presented a CITY OF MURRIETA Printed on 8/14/2025Page 4 of 8

awarded a contract for on-call vertical construction management services. In June 2024, RWBID presented a proposal for the library expansion project with not-to-exceed fees of $475,000, divided into pre-construction and construction phases, and the City Council approved the full expenditure. The City issued a purchase order (PO) for only pre-construction services for $215,000. Approximately $90,000 remains in the PO, which will be closed and the funds disencumbered. RWBID will be issued a new PO for construction management services during the construction phase for $250,000. At the conclusion of construction, the total value of RWBID’s services for the entire project is anticipated to be $375,000.
Funding for some Project costs will not be needed until a later date. The purchase of Fixtures, Furnishings, and Equipment (FF&E) for bookcases, seating, desks, and staff workstations can wait until winter 2026, depending on order lead times. Low-voltage wiring and information technology-related services will not be needed until the building expansion is almost entirely constructed and includes installing low-voltage wiring and data cabling for key card access points, Wi-Fi access points, data connections for workstations, and security cameras. Staff will bring those purchase and service contracts to the City Council for consideration at a later date. The anticipated cost for these elements is included in the full project budget, reflected in the table above.
Fundraising
In addition to securing funding through grants, development impact fees, and an interfund loan, the City has been working with numerous supporting groups, including the Murrieta Public Library Foundation and the Friends of the Murrieta Library, to raise awareness of the Children’sExpansion project and to raise funds.
These efforts aim to enhance the Project’sscope, reduce reliance on City funds, and foster deeper community engagement. The fundraising strategy developed by staff and the supporting groups aimed to raise between $550,000 to $1.5 million. Over the course of the past year, outreach efforts have included staffing booths at 13 local events, presentations to local community groups (approximately 10), social media, a project newsletter, direct solicitation, and school partnerships. As of the beginning of August, the fundraising campaign has achieved the following:
Source Amount Raised
Murrieta Public Library Foundation $135,000
Friends of the Murrieta Library $103,400
Pending private sector commitments $ 40,000
Water district support (including in-kind contributions and lawn removal rebate)
$110,000
TOTAL COMMITMENTS $388,400
Staff and the Foundation continue to fundraise for the Children’sLibrary Expansion project and will provide up- to-date donation figures when staff returns to the City Council to seek approval for contracts related to the FF&E and Low Voltage/IT Services.
Project Funding
A portion of the funding required to proceed with the construction of the Murrieta Children’sLibrary Expansion Project has already been allocated to CIP 21027 during the Capital Improvement Plan budgeting process, and previous City Council actions:

Total $8,019,326
To provide the remaining funding for the Project, staff is recommending an Interfund Loan between the Measure T Fund and the Library DIF Fund, and a budget appropriation from Unassigned Fund Balance from the Measure T Fund.
On June 18, 2024, staff presented the City Council with a comparison of options to fund a part of the Project.
The first option was issuing bonds, and the second was an interfund loan. Both would be repaid using future Library DIF. At that time, the City Council conceptually approved using the interfund loan approach.
Alternatively, if the City Council had preferred to issue debt and pursue a bond for the necessary funds, staff would have pursued that over the course of the past 14 months due to the required lead time.
Bond Analysis
As of July 2025, the Federal Reserve's Open Market Committee has maintained the federal funds rate within a target range of 4.25% to 4.50%. Given current bond market conditions, the estimated average interest rate for a 30-year lease revenue bond is expected to fall within the range of 5.00% to 5.50%.
These elevated market rates are driving higher interest costs, which in turn increase both the total interest expense and the annual debt service payments. Based on a 30-year lease revenue bond with an average annual interest rate of 5.00%, the estimated annual debt service payment would be approximately $227,680, with total interest paid over the life of the bond amounting to roughly $3,330,400.
Interfund Loan Analysis
Interfund loans are a common financial tool used by local government agencies. These loans should provide a reasonable benefit to the lending fund without creating a financial burden for the borrowing fund.
Under the proposed loan terms, the borrowing fund would benefit from an interest rate lower than what would typically be available through public bond financing. The loan interest rate is generally aligned with the City's long-term investment yield-what the lending fund would have earned had the funds remained invested. As of June 30, 2025, the average purchase yield on the City's long-term investment portfolio is approximately 2.0%.
Considering the annual average revenue from Library DIF, staff recommends setting the Interfund Loan interest rate at 1.0%. At this rate, the Library DIF Fund would realize an estimated $2,761,848 in interest expense savings over a 30-year period, compared to a standard bond issuance.

8/19/2025
Agenda Item No. 23.
The opportunity cost to the Measure T Fund-resulting from investing $3.5 million at 1% instead of the typical 2%-is approximately $1,621,375 over the same 30-year term. When factoring in the interest savings for the Library DIF Fund and the opportunity cost to the Measure T Fund, the combined net benefit of the proposed loan is approximately $1,140,473, as detailed in the table below. 30-Years Bond 3,330,400.00
Interfund Loan 568,552.00
Interest Savings 2,761,848.00
Measure T Fund
Opportunity Cost 1,621,375.00
Net Benefit 1,140,473.00
Library DIF Interest Expense
The term of the Interfund Loan will align with a standard 30-year bond, with an estimated annual debt service payment of $135,618. The Library DIF Fund generates revenue to support this level of debt service.
Based on this analysis, staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing execution of an Interfund Loan agreement. The agreement includes key terms such as the loan amount, interest rate, and the debt service payment schedule.
Next Steps
If the City Council approves moving forward, construction is expected to begin in September 2025 and will take approximately 12 months. A groundbreaking celebration will be scheduled for early September. The goal will be to minimize disruption to regular library operations and programming as much as possible, though it is anticipated that some adjustments will be required.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed $3,500,000 Interfund Loan will require a budget appropriation in the Fiscal Year 2025/26 Operating Budget to establish a transfer-out from the Measure T Fund-utilizing funds set aside in the Sustainability Reserves for this purpose-and a corresponding transfer-in to the Library DIF Fund.
A budget appropriation of $1,075,000 from the Measure T Unassigned Fund Balance is required for the balance of the funding necessary to construct the Project. If, during a future project update, donation collections are greater than the current amount, the budget appropriation from Measure T can be reduced and returned to Unassigned Fund Balance.
The Interfund Loan will be recorded in the General Ledger in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Associated financial impacts, including investment earnings for the Measure T Fund and interest expense for the Library DIF Fund, will be included in a future budget update and incorporated into future biennial operating budgets for the term of the loan. Additionally, the terms of the Interfund Loan will be disclosed in the Notes section of City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.

INTER-FUND TRANSFER/ LOAN AGREEMENT
This INTER-FUND TRANSFER/ LOAN AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into this 19 day of August, 2025, by and among the Measure T Fund (Fund No. 111) (“Measure T Fund”) and the Library Development Impact Fee Fund (Fund No. 131) (“Library DIF Fund”) of the City of Murrieta (the "City"), each of which has a separate and distinct source of income, to wit, the Measure T Fund is funded by Sales & Use Tax, and the Library DIF Fund is a special fund and is funded by fees paid by developers in connection with development projects pursuant to Resolution No. 98-612 and Municipal Code 16.36 provides that the amount of the DIF fee shall be established by resolution.
R E C I T A L S
A. The City owns and operates the Murrieta Public Library facility (the “Library”).
The City desires to do various improvements to the library, including the Children’s Library Expansion Project (the “Project”).
B. The City maintains the Library DIF Fund as a special fund for development impact fees received from developers pursuant to Resolution No. 98-612 and Municipal Code 16.36 for the purpose of providing funds to improve the library, including the Project.

D. The City desires to loan and transfer funds from its Measure T Fund reserves, in lieu of obtaining third-party financing, to the Library DIF Fund for the purpose of carrying out the Project (the “Inter-Fund Loan”).
E. The City proposes to charge interest at a rate of one percent (1%) per annum for the Inter-Fund Loan. This interest rate is less than the rate the City would pay if it were to finance the Project from outside sources because the current market interest rate for municipal bonds and/or certificates of participation is approximately 5.5% per annum.
F. The Inter-Fund Loan ser ves a public purpose by ensuring the continued enhancement and improvement of the Library to the benefit of the City’s constituents.

Agenda Item No. 24.
CITY COUNCIL GOAL
Coordinate and deliver responsive, effective community services.
BACKGROUND
Since 2018, the City of Murrieta (City) has been working with the Murrieta Youth Soccer League (MYSL), pursuing development of additional soccer fields at Los Alamos Hills Sports Park (Park), located at 37000 Ruth Ellen Way. The Park is generally bounded by Whitewood Road on the north, Los Alamos Road to the south, and Ruth Ellen Way to the west.
The goal of developing the Park is to expand recreational opportunities for residents, as well as to create a regional recreational venue for competitive youth soccer. The Park includes football, soccer, and other recreational sports fields. The current concept for expanding the Park (Project) includes six soccer fields, a building for bathrooms, lighting, and on-site parking areas. The fields will provide expanded recreational amenities, which the City hopes will draw visitors to the area annually, boosting the local economy as visitors patronize local stores, restaurants, and hotels. The development of additional soccer fields at the Park is currently unfunded but MYSL has expressed interest is a partnership whereby the City would finance improvements and MYSL would pay the associated debt service. The City is currently reviewing a proforma submitted by MYSL that further explores the potential for such a partnership.
At the September 3, 2024, City Council hearing, staff presented a similar request for project and environmental permitting. City Council voted to form an Ad-Hoc Subcommittee to look closely at the project and cost. Council Members Ron Holliday and Jon Levell volunteered to be Ad-Hoc Subcommittee members and held meetings with staff to discuss the proposal. The Ad Hoc Subcommittee focused on several issues, including:
· Whether to pursue environmental permitting now or to wait until plans for the park’sdevelopment were solidified between the City and MYSL.
· The scope of environmental permitting and whether or not a criteria refinement would be necessary or some lower standard of environmental review.
· Issues relating to land conservation to satisfy the Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan (MSHCP) and the Regional Conservation Authority (RCA).
The Ad Hoc Subcommittee ultimately reached the conclusion that the City should pursue environmental permitting regardless of any specific proposed park development because the permitting must be completed for any future development of the land. The City does not own any other large properties appropriate for the location of sports fields and costs to permit the property will only increase over time. The Subcommittee also reached the conclusion that a Criteria Refinement is likely beyond what is required for environmental permitting. However, that issue remains a conversation between the City, RCA and state and federal wildlife agencies.
Project Consistency with MSHCP
Land development, including the further development of the Park, is subject to the MSHCP, which is a master plan for the conservation of sensitive habitat areas and species within western Riverside County. The City is a permittee of the MSHCP and is bound by its procedures and conservation objectives. Los Alamos Park is included within an area of the MSHCP known as Core 2. This area of the MSHCP includes over 8,800 acres, nearly half of which may include habitat for rare, threatened, or endangered plants and animal species. The RCA administers the MSHCP. In the image below, Core 2 is shown east of Interstate 215, over the Los Alamos area, and goes farther to the northeast into the County of Riverside.

Agenda Item No. 24.
After meeting with State, federal, and regional agencies involved in the Project’s environmental review process, the City was informed that implementation of Phase 2 for the Park would require a complex environmental review process under the MSHCP referred to as Criteria Refinement, which would allow the City to deviate from the stated habitat conservation objectives for land Core 2.
Staff and the Ad Hoc Subcommittee disagree with the RCA’sposition that the City is subject to a Criteria Refinement process, as City records indicate that mitigation for both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the Park was completed. As such, the recommended contract amendments do not include work to process a Criteria Refinement but include the other necessary environmental permitting due to the verified presence within the Project area of plants, avian, and other species that are considered “candidate,”“rare,”“threatened,”and “endangered” under regional requirements (MSHCP), and State and federal law.

Agenda Item No. 24.
City Consultant Status
In searching for the most effective consultant for the environmental permitting requirements, staff previously identified Glenn Lukos Associates, Inc. (GLA) as the consulting firm that has successfully completed complex environmental permitting processes with the RCA, California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). In addition, GLA has specialized experience with agency permit processes that will be critical in surveying for other protected species that are not included in the MSHCP but are protected by the state. The City will need to obtain permits from the State to undertake the Project, and GLA has specialized experience in the surveying and permitting processes that will be required.
In addition to GLA, staff are requesting to onboard RICK (formerly Rick Engineering Company) to provide planning, engineering, and design services related to processing the necessary permits from the State. To provide more supporting information that cannot be accomplished by GLA, RICK will provide additional technical studies and information, such as a conceptual grading plan, stormwater management plan, drainage study, stormwater plan, surveying, and the preparation of an environmental document. Contract amendments and scopes of work for GLA and RICK are attached for the City Council’s reference.
City Competitive Bidding Process
The City’s purchasing regulations in Murrieta Municipal Code Chapter 3.08, as well as administrative purchasing procedures, govern the acquisition of contract services. Contracts for services that exceed $75,000 are typically obtained through a formal bidding process. However, exceptions can be made in accordance with the provisions of Murrieta Municipal Code Section 3.08.280.
The Development Services Department (DSD) is currently working with GLA for the preparation of the State and federal permit applications. To prepare and submit the necessary applications to the agencies, DSD would need to expand the services provided by GLA and retain the services of RICK. These two firms have been selected due to their experience and proven track record.
The proposed Amendment for GLA will increase the amount to $163,120, expand the scope of work, and extend the term to June 30, 2027.
The proposed Agreement with RICK will allocate $184,110, expand the scope of work, and extend the term to June 30, 2027.
FISCAL IMPACT
If the City Council approves staff’s recommendations, the total amount for both GLA and RICK contract amendments totals $347,230. Staff recommends that the City Council direct staff to amend the operating budget in FY 2025/26 and increase appropriation using General Fund Unassigned Fund Balance in the amount of $347,230 in the Planning Division operating budget for Contract Services account number 1104400- 60480 ($163,120 for Glenn Lukos, Inc.) and 1101600-60320 ($184,110 for Rick) to enter into an agreement for the Los Alamos Sports Park Soccer Project. The succeeding fiscal year of this amended agreement will be budgeted as part of the biennial budget process.

Since the Project site is located within the MSHCP Criteria Area, the Project will require Joint Project Review (JPR). GLA will prepare a Joint Project Review (JPR) application and submit this package to the City and RCA in accordance with MSHCP requirements. The JPR application will include the following:
• Background information, such as information regarding the applicant; • Assessor’s parcel numbers;
• Total acres of development and conservation; and
• A description of the proposed Project.
In support of the JPR application, GLA will prepare a MSHCP Consistency Analysis. The report will summarize the biological findings, present the Project design, and analyze how the Project correlates to the MSHCP guidelines. The report will also discuss Riparian/Riverine and Vernal Pool Areas, Narrow Endemic Plant Species, Additional Survey Areas, Urban/Wildlife Interface, Criteria Cell Requirements, and Criteria Area Species. The report will follow the RCA template for the MSHCP Consistency Analysis.
TASK II. PREPARE DETERMINATION OF BIOLOGICAL EQUIVA LENT OR
SUPERIOR PRESERVATION (DBESP) ANALYSIS
GLA will prepare a Determination of Biologically Equivalent or Superior Preservation (DBESP) Analysis that meets the requirements for approval of a DBESP. The report will provide a definition of the project area for all portions of the project; a written project description, demonstrating why an avoidance alternative is not feasible; a written description of biological information available for the project site including the results of resource mapping; soils description/analysis/map, floral and faunal list; analysis of 100% avoidance and alternatives (including minimization of direct and indirect effects); quantification of unavoidable impacts to the MSHCP species/habitats triggering the DBESP, including direct and indirect effects; a functions and values assessment that will focus on affects to downstream values related to Conserved Species; habitat assessments for least Bell’s vireo, southwestern willow flycatcher, western yellow-billed cuckoo, Riverside fairy shrimp, and vernal pool fairy shrimp; a written description of project design features and mitigation measures that reduce indirect effects, such as edge treatments, landscaping, elevation difference, minimization and/or compensation through restoration or enhancement; written discussion of edge treatments and their relation to the functions and values to be conserved (including lighting, noise, trash/debris, urban and storm water runoff, toxic material, exotic plant and animal infestations, dust); mitigation measures need to demonstrate ensure long-term conservation and need to consider restoration and/or enhancement of on-site habitat restoration and/or enhancement of off-site habitat; and a finding 922
demonstrating that although the proposed project would not avoid impacts, with proposed design and compensation measures, the project would be biologically equivalent or superior to that which would occur under an avoidance alternative without these measures.
The client will need to provide the necessary project details including engineering details and design, construction timing, and alternatives for the DBESP. This task and cost estimate include budget sufficient for one thorough revision to the draft (initial) report and one revision to the report following initial wildlife agency review and comment.
TASK III. COORDINATE JOINT PROJECT REVIEW (T&M)
GLA will coordinate with the Project team and the RCA as part of the JPR process. The RCA has 14 days to review an initial JPR application package and either issue JPR Findings or provide comments requiring revisions. Each subsequent review after resubmittal of the documents to the RCA is another 14 days. GLA recommends that the Project team attend at least one pre-application meeting with the RCA and Wildlife Agencies to discuss the Project, although additional meetings could be necessary. This task assumes five meetings with the Project team, two coordination meetings with the RCA and Wildlife Agencies, and miscellaneous coordination. Should additional meetings be required, a change order will be prepared to incorporate these additional meetings into GLA’s scope of work.
TASK IV. COORDINATE DBESP REVIEW (T&M)
GLA will coordinate with the Project team and the RCA as part of the DBESP review process. The Wildlife Agencies have 60 days to perform an initial review of a DBESP Analysis once the RCA has completed JPR. If the Wildlife Agencies provide comments requiring revisions to the DBESP Analysis, then each subsequent review could take up to another 60 days, although subsequent reviews could be expedited depending on the extent of revisions. GLA recommends that the Project team attend at least one DBESP pre-application meeting (which is different from the general pre- application meetings recommended prior to JPR) with the RCA and Wildlife Agencies to discuss the Project, although additional meetings could be necessary. This task assumes three meetings with the Project team, two coordination meetings with the RCA and Wildlife Agencies, and miscellaneous coordination. Should additional meetings be required, a change order will be prepared to incorporate these additional meetings into GLA’s scope of work.
TASK V. DELINEATE ON SITE FEDERAL AND STATE AGENCY JURISDICTION
A field team of regulatory specialists will re-delineate Corps jurisdictional boundaries within the project site. The field team will investigate specific conditions relating to jurisdictional criteria such as evidence of ordinary high water marks (OHWM), wetland vegetation indicator species, hydric soils, and appropriate hydrology, all as outlined in the 1987 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (1987 Manual) and the 2008 Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West Region (Version 2.0). Reference will also made to the 2019 State Wetland Definition and Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Material to Waters of the State (State Board Wetland Definition and Procedures) to identify suspected State wetland 923
habitats. The OHWM will be evaluated using the methodology set forth in the 2008 Field Guide to the Identification of the Ordinary High Water Mark (OHWM) in the Arid West Region of the Western United States. These data will be recorded on the aerial photograph for use in preparing jurisdictional maps and a letter report.
A field team of regulatory specialists will re-delineate CDFW jurisdictional boundaries within the project site. All intermittent and ephemeral streams, rivers, creeks, dry washes, sloughs, blue-line streams, and watercourses with subsurface flows, canals, aqueducts, irrigation ditches, and other means of water conveyance, and lakes will be examined for indicators of CDFW jurisdiction.
These indicators include biologic components of aquatic systems (such as riparian vegetation) and physical features (such as a bed or channel, banks, levees, instream features such as logs or snags, and flood plains). Measurements of this jurisdiction will be taken at periodic intervals along the drainage and mapped onto a 200-scale topographic map. Isolated wetlands (such as vernal pools) are generally not considered to be within CDFW jurisdiction.
The Regional Board’s jurisdiction pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act will be identical to that of the Corps pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. However, where the Corps declines jurisdiction, the Regional Board will claim jurisdiction over such waters pursuant to the Porter-Cologne Act. GLA will identify and delineate any such waters and keep track of those waters separately from those within Corps jurisdiction.
TASK VI. PREPARE JURISDICTIONAL DELINEATION REPORT
A regulatory specialist will prepare a letter report to document the findings concerning Corps, Regional Board, and CDFW jurisdiction on the site. The report will document the extent of jurisdiction and assess wetland-related biological resources. Documentation will consist of (1) field data sheets (as an appendix), (2) color photographs of representative jurisdictional areas (and non- jurisdictional areas that could be mistaken for jurisdiction), (3) a topographic map (at the scale provided by the client, but not less than 200-scale) of the limits of jurisdictional areas (the map will show all points at which measurements were made and soil pits examined), and, if applicable, (4) a table showing the area of Corps, Regional Board, and CDFW jurisdiction for each drainage and tributary.
TASK VII. FORMULATE MITIGATION PLAN
Feasible measures for mitigating any impacts upon vernal pool resources resulting from project implementation will be recommended for consideration. Agency policy generally requires that: (1) on site mitigation be given full consideration, (2) mitigation be like-in-kind (to the maximum extent possible), and (3) habitat be replaced at no less than 1 to 1 by area (even if mitigation is designed so as to result in higher value habitat). Emphasis will be placed upon providing the maximum attainable compatibility between project design objectives and regulatory requirements. Off-site mitigation will be required if on site mitigation is not feasible, however, the search for suitable off- site mitigation locations is not included in this scope of work. Based on the avoided areas of existing vernal pool resources, it is likely that on-site mitigation for vernal pool impacts will be achievable.
924
After approval of recommended mitigation by the client, conceptual plans will be prepared.
Conceptual plans will include plant lists, a general description of site preparation methods, biological monitoring program, maintenance program, and other information sufficient to satisfy resource agency review requirements. A final planting plan with specifications sufficient to obtain bids for installation of the mitigation should be prepared only after obtaining approval from all the agencies; preparation of a final plan, if necessary, is not included in this scope of work. Grading, if any, for the conceptual mitigation plan will be recommended by GLA, however, final grading plans must be reviewed and approved by the client's engineer at the client's expense.
TASK VIII. PROCESS APPROVED JURISDICTIONAL DETERMIN ATION
The drainage features on site are ephemeral (i.e., are not relatively permanent, flowing, or standing bodies of water that are tributary to other waters of the United States); therefore, they are not expected to meet the current definition of waters of the United States as defined in Corps regulations at 33 CFR Part 328.3(a). The mapped vernal pools on site are also likely not to be deemed wetlands under the same Corps regulations. Should the Corps decline to assert jurisdiction over the drainage features and vernal pools on site, then no Corps jurisdictional waters would be present, and no CWA Section 404 Permit would be required for the Project.
In order to secure an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) from the Corps, GLA will prepare the AJD forms and provide the necessary backup information. If concurrence is received, the Corps would issue the AJD and No Permit Necessary Letter.
The request for an AJD may include:
• Administrative information;
• Summary information, including Section 10 of the 1899 Rivers and Harbors Act and/or Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or excluded waters and/or other features; • Other summary information, such as photographs, hydrology information, National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) maps;
• Stream Duration Assessment Method (SDAM) forms; and
• Information contained in the Corps’ Antecedent Precipitation Tool.
TASK IX. PREPARE STREAMBED ALTERATION NOTIFICATION
A 1602 Streambed Alteration Notification will be completed in accordance with CDFW standards and, only after review and approval by the client, submitted to the CDFW for review. As of September 1, 2020, the notifications will be submitted online through CDFW’s online portal, EPIMS. GLA will register the project on behalf of the Client (Applicant) and upload the required notification, which will include, at a minimum:
• detailed description of the proposed project, including grading plans provided by the client; • detailed description of the regulated features to be impacted by the proposed project; • discussion of approvals and certifications being obtained from other federal, state, or local agencies;
925
• conceptual mitigation plan as discussed above;
• correct notification fee as broken down by CDFW project; and • a completed CDFW notification form.
Please be aware that CDFW generally will not accept a notification unless accompanied by a draft CEQA document, and will not issue any authorization until the CEQA document has been approved and a Notice of Determination or other similar documentation is filed.
TASK X. PREPARE REQUEST FOR WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIRE MENT A 401 Water Quality Certification is only required when a project, affecting waters of the United States, requires a federal action such as a Corps permit. If there is no federal action, but waters of the state are being affected, the Regional Board requires the processing of a Waste Discharge Requirement pursuant to the Porter-Cologne Act.
In April of 2019, the State Water Resources Control Board adopted the State Wetland Definition and Procedures for Discharges of Dredged or Fill Material to Waters of the State (“Procedures”) which became effective on May 28, 20 20. The Procedures set forth the process under which each Regional Board is required to review projects result in the permanent loss of waters of the State, which includes both federal waters, subject to Section 404 jurisdiction as well as waters which are not regulated as waters of the U.S. pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. For areas subject to fill, the Procedures includes three “Tiers” under which projects are evaluated.
• Tier 1 projects include any discharge of dredged or fill material that directly impacts less than or equal to one tenth (0.1) of an acre or less than or equal to 100 linear feet of waters of the state…
• Tier 2 projects include any discharge of dredged or fill material that directly impacts more than one tenth (0.1) and less than or equal to two tenths (0.2) of an acre or more than 100 and less than or equal to 300 linear feet of waters of the state…
• Tier 3 projects include any discharge of dredged or fill material that directly impacts more than two-tenths (0.2) of an acre or 300 linear feet of waters of the state, rare, threatened or endangered species habitat in waters of the state, wetlands or eel grass beds, or Outstanding National Resource Waters or Areas of Special Biological Significance, and is not a project that inherently cannot be located at an alternate location. Tier 3 projects shall provide an analysis of off-site and on-site alternatives.
Based on the impacts described in the existing Biological Resources Technical Report prepared by Harris & Associates (2022), it is anticipated that the Project would be considered a Tier 1 project, and the level of effort prescribed to this task is based on this impact analysis.
926
Please be aware that the Regional Board will not accept an application unless accompanied by a draft CEQA document, and will not issue any authorization until the CEQA document has been approved and a Notice of Determination or other similar documentation is filed.
TASK XI. PROCESS ITP FOR CROTCH’S BUMBLE BEE
CBB is currently a Candidate listed species under CESA and while it is anticipated that the California Gish and Game Commission will make a listing determination in Q4 2025 or Q1 2026, in order for construction to proceed while the status of the species remains as is, an ITP must be processed. GLA will complete the application and provide all required supporting documentation, including a description of how the Project will fully mitigate for impacts to CBB and CBB habitat.
TASK XII. PROJECT AND REGULATORY AGENCY COORDINATIO N (T&M)
The AJD, 1602 notification, Waste Discharge Requirement, and ITP request will be coordinated with the Corps, CDFW, and Regional Board throughout processing to ensure that any potential problems are made known to the client and resolved at the earliest possible opportunity. This task also includes coordination with the engineering and/or project team on large digital file transfers and reviews. The degree of effort anticipated and included under this task is based on a reasonable and general approximation of effort. It is not feasible to know with certainty what level of coordination an agency will require because this is dependent on the specific agency personnel processing the permit and client perspectives.
TASK XIII. PREPARE CEQA ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES AS SESSMENT
CEQA Phase I Archaeological Resources Assessment (Phase I) work will consist of background research, a pedestrian field survey of the Project site, and preparation of a report documenting the findings. GLA will request an appointment to conduct an in-person records search at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) of the California Historical Resources Information System located at San Diego State University. The SCIC, an affiliate of the California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP), is the official repository of cultural resources reports and records for Riverside County. The records search will identify recorded cultural resources and studies in, and within 0.5 mile of, the entire Project site. Local county listings, historic aerial photographs, and historic topographic maps, if available, will also be reviewed.
Following completion of the SCIC record search, a pedestrian field survey of the approximately 47- acre Project site will be conducted to identify surficial cultural resources in the Project site. It is assumed that the field survey can be completed by one archaeologist within two days. After the field survey is completed, a report will be prepared to document the Phase I methods, results, and recommendations for next steps (if any). A copy of the final report will be submitted to the SCIC in fulfillment of a requirement to access their archives.
This scope assumes that no archaeological resources will be identified in the Project site as a result of the records search or field survey. If archaeological resources are identified, GLA will notify you immediately to discuss and develop a scope and budget for additional tasks. For example, if 927
resources are identified, cultural resources would need to be recorded on State of California Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) Series 523 forms in accordance with the guidelines established by OHP.
GLA understands that the City has initiated coordination with Pechanga Band of Indians and assumes that representatives from Pechanga Band of Indians will request to review the draft Phase I report and will provide comments on the document. The budget for the CEQA archaeological assessment includes a total of eight hours for GLA to coordinate with Pechanga Band of Indians representatives and respond to tribal representative comments on the Phase I report. The scope does not include assistance with Native American consultation or coordination with other tribal groups.
TASK XIV. PREPARE CEQA HISTORIC RESOURCE EVALUATION
The single-family residence on the Project site was constructed in 1976 and is currently less than 50 years of age, which is the threshold or historical significance. However, an evaluation of the residence is proposed to ensure that all cultural resources aspects of the Project site are addressed in the event that certification of the CEQA document occurs in 2026, at which time the residence would be 50 years of age. To evaluate the residence, an architectural historian will conduct archival research on the history and development of the property. Research locations will include, but not be limited to, the City of Murrieta, the Riverside County Assessor’s Office, and the local public libraries. Research will utilize primary and secondary sources of information such as building permits, historic maps and photographs, newspaper articles, city directories, and written histories.
The architectural historian will also conduct an intensive ‐level field survey of this property. During
the survey, photographs will be taken of the exterior of the building and notations will be made regarding the building’s architectural style, integrity, and condition. Safe access to the property will be required to complete the survey. Access to the interior of the residence is not required.
DPR forms will be prepared, which will include an architectural description, photograph, historic context, list of references, and a significance evaluation using the California Register of Historical Resources and City criteria. Upon completion of the evaluation, the property will be assigned a California Historical Resources Status Code indicating its level of significance. Along with the DPR forms, a brief memorandum will be prepared to summarize research, field methods, and findings.
928

4.5 Subcontracting or Assignment. The experience, knowledge, capability and reputation of Consultant, its principals and employees were a substantial inducement for City to enter into this Agreement. Therefore, without express written approval of City, Consultant shall not contract with any other City to perform in whole or in part services required hereunder without express written approval of City , and n either this Agreement nor any interest herein may be transferred or assigned. No approved transfer shall release Consultant, or any surety or insured of Consultant, of any liability hereunder without express written consent of City.
ARTICLE 5. INSURANCE AND INDEMNIFICATION
5.1 Insurance Coverages. Prior to commencement of any services under this Agreement, and without limiting Consultant’s indemnification obligation to City, Consultant shall procure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, in a form and content satisfactory to City, for the duration of the Agreement, primary policies of insurance of the type and amounts set forth in the “Insurance Requirements” attached hereto as Exhibit E and incorporated herein by this reference.
5.2 Indemnification.
(a) General Obligations. Consultant agrees, to the full extent permitted by law, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless City and its elected and appointed officers, employees and agents (each an “ Indemnitee” and collectively, “ Indemnitees”) against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from, whether actual or threatened, any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration or regulatory claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities (herein “ Claims or Liabilities ”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or City arising out of or in connection with the negligent performance of the work, operations or activities provided herein of Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, or invitees, or any individual or City for which Consultant is legally liable (each an “Indemnitor” and collectively, “ Indemnitors”), or arising from Indemnitors’ reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Indemnitors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, and in connection therewith: 1) Consultant will defend any action or actions filed or threatened in connection with any such Claims or Liabilities, or at option of Indemnitee(s) will reimburse and pay for all costs and expenses, including 937
legal costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by Indemnitee(s) in connection therewith; and, 2) Consultant will promptly pay any judgment rendered against Indemnitee(s) for any such Claims or Liabilities, and will save and hold Indemnitee(s) harmless therefrom.
(b) Further Provisions. The indemnity obligation herein shall be binding on successors, assigns and heirs of Consultant and shall survive termination of this Agreement. Consultant shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements as provided herein with its subcontractors, and if Consultant fails to do so Consultant shall be fully responsible to indemnify City hereunder therefor. Failure of City and/or City Parties (collectively “City” for solely this Section 5. 2(b)) to monitor compliance with any of the indemnification provisions herein shall not be a waiver hereof. The indemnification provisions herein do not apply to claims or liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful misconduct, but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of the design professi onal. The indemnification provided herein includes Claims or Liabilities arising from any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Indemnitors in the performance of professional services hereunder. Payment of invoi ces by City is not a condition precedent to enforcement of the indemnity obligation herein. In the event of any dispute between Consultant and City, as to whether liability arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of City, Consultant will be o bligated to pay for City’s defense until such time as a final judgment has been entered adjudicating City as solely negligent or responsible for willful misconduct. Consultant will not be entitled in the absence of such a determination to any reimbursement of defense costs including but not limited to attorney’s fees, expert fees and costs of litigation. (c) Pursuant to the full language of California Civil Code §2782, Design Professionals agrees to indemnify, including the cost to defend, City and its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all claims, demands, costs, or liability that arise out of, or pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Design Professional and its empl oyees or agents in the performance of services under this contract, but this indemnity does not apply to liability for damages arising from the sole negligence, active negligence, or willful acts of the City; and does not apply to any passive negligence of the City unless caused at least in part by the Design Professional. The City agrees that in no event shall the cost to defend charged to the Design Professional exceed that professional’s proportionate percentage of fault. This duty to indemnify shall not be waived or modified by contractual agreement or acts of the parties.
5.3 Professional Liability. When the law establishes a professional standard of care for Consultant’s services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Indemnitees against, and will hold and save them and each of them harmless from , whether actual or threatened, any and all Claims and Liabilities, consistent with all obligations provided for in this Section
5.3, to the extent same are caused in whole or in part by any negligent or wrongful 938
act, error or omission, or reckless or willful misconduct of Indemnitors in the performance of professional services under this Agreement.
ARTICLE 6. RECORDS, REPORTS AND RELEASE OF INFORMATION
6.1 Records. Consultant shall keep, and require subcontractors to keep, such ledgers, books of accounts, invoices, vouchers, canceled checks, reports, studies or other documents relating to the disbursements charged to City and services performed hereunder (“books and records ”) as shall be necessary to perform the services required by this Agreement and enable City to evaluate the performance of such services. Any and all such books and records shall be maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, shall be complete and detailed, and shall be readily accessible . City shall have full and free access to such books and records at all times during normal business hours of City, including the right to inspect, copy, audit and make records and transcripts. Such books and records shall be maintained for a period of three (3) years following completion of the services hereunder. City shall have access to such books and records in the event any audit is required. Consultant shall fully cooperate with City in providing access to any and all Consultant records and documents if a public records request is made and disclosure is required by law including but not limited to the California Public Records Act.

Consultant may retain copies of such documents and materials for its own use. Consultant shall have the right to use the concepts embodied therein. All subcontractors shall provide for assignment to City of any documents and materials prepared by them, and in the event Consultant fails to secure such assignment, Consultant shall indemnify City for all damages resulting therefrom. Moreover, with respect to any Consultant documents and materials that may qualify as “works made for hire” as defined in 17 U.S.C. § 101, such documents and materials are hereby deemed “works made for hire” for City.
6.3 Confidentiality and Release of Information. All information gained or work product produced by Consultant in its performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential, unless such information is in the public domain or already known to Consultant. Consultant shall not release or disclose any such information or work product to persons or entities other than City without prior written authorization from City. Consultant, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, shall not, without prior wri tten authorization from City or unless requested by the City Attorney, voluntarily provide documents, declarations, letters of support, testimony at depositions, response to interrogatories or other 939
information concerning the work performed under this Agreement. Response to a subpoena or court order shall not be considered “voluntary” provided Consultant immediately gives City notice of such court order or subpoena. If Consultant, or any officer, employee, agent or subcontractor of Consultant, provides any information or work product in violation of this Agreement, then City shall have the right to reimbursement and indemnity from Consultant for any damages, costs and fees, including attorney’s fees, caused by or incurred as a result of Consultant’s conduct. As concerning, r egarding or related to, in any way, this Agreement and the work performed thereunder: a) Consultant shall immediately notify City should Consultant, its officers, employees, agents or subcontractors be served with any summons, complaint, subpoena, notice of deposition, request for documents, interrogatories, request for admiss ions or other discovery request, court order or subpoena from any party ; b) City retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Consultant or be present at any deposition, hearing or similar proceeding; and, c) Consultant agrees to cooperate fully with City and to provide City with the opportunity to review any response to discovery requests provided by Consultant , however, this right to review any such response does not imply or mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.
ARTICLE 7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION
7.1 California Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Riverside, State of California.
7.2 Suspension, or Termination, Prior to Expiration of Term. This Section shall govern any termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in Section
7.4 for termination for cause. City reserves the right to terminate or suspend this Agreement, or any portion hereof, at any time, for any reason, with or without cause, upon ten (10) days’ notice to Consultant, except that where termination or suspension is due to the fault of Consultant, the period of notice may be such shorter time as determined by City. Upon receipt of any notice of termination or suspension, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder , unless the notice provides otherwise, or except such as specifically approved by City. Upon submittal of an invoice consistent with Section 2. 2, Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination or suspension and for any services authorized by City thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation, or such a s may be approved by City, except as provided in Section 7.5. In event of termination , or suspension, 940
without cause pursuant to this Section, there is no need to provide opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.3.
7.3 Default of Consultant and Opportunity to Cure . In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively t en (10) days, but may be extended, or reduced, if circumstances warrant, as determined by City. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices , without liability for interest. In the alternative, City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default by conclusion of noticed timeframe , City may immediately both terminate this Agreement with notice to Consultant as well as pursue the remedy in Section 7.4, without prejudice to any other rem edy to which City may be entitled at law, in equity or under this Agreement . Any failure on the part of City to give notice of Consultant’s default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of City’s legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
7.4 Termination for Default of Consultant. If termination is due to the failure of Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.3, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such dama ges), and City may withhold any payments to Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed City therefor.
7.5 Retention of Funds. Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, cost s, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant’s acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant’s obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
941
7.6 Waiver. Waiver by any Party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any Party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement. Acceptance by City of any work or services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non -defaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Consultant of non -compliance with any requirement of this Agreement imposes no additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder. Payment to Consultant for work performed pursuant to this Agreement shall not be deemed to waive any defects in work performed by Consultant.
7.7 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.
7.8 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.
