TITLE: Resolution No. 2025-23 : Creating the Ad Hoc Committee on Utilization of Lower Castaways and Aquatic Center Site Options ABSTRACT:

For the City Council's consideration is the adoption of a resolution to create the Ad Hoc Committee on Utilization of Lower Castaways and Aquatic Center Site Options . The ad hoc committee would be comprised of three Councilmembers , one Parks, Beaches, & Recreation Commissioner , one Planning Commissioner , one Harbor Commissioner , and one citizen member . The committee will be charged with assessing the potential uses of the Lower Castaways property and exploring suitable site options for a future community aquatic center.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment , directly or indirectly; and
b) Adopt Resolution No. 2025-23, A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Newport Beach, California, Creating the Ad Hoc Committee on Utilization of Lower Castaways and Aquatic Center Site Options.

DISCUSSION:

On February 27, 2024, the City Council established the Lower Castaways Park Ad Hoc Committee , and confirmed the appointments of Mayor Pro Tern Joe Stapleton, Councilmember Robyn Grant, and Councilmember Noah Blom. The committee was tasked to work with City of Newport Beach staff in evaluating additional capital improvements , harbor and beach uses, and/or recreational opportunities for Lower Castaways . It met several times between March and September 2024 and worked alongside City staff and on-call consultants to review potential concepts . Ultimately, the committee identified a community recreational pool facility with rich amenities, including a 50-meter pool, a therapy pool, a splash pad, a hand boat launch, and event venue, as the best use for Lower Castaways .

At the October 8, 2024, City Council Study Session, staff presented the committee's recommendations . At the conclusion of the item, including public comments and City Council discussion, the City Council unanimously supported pursuing the committee's recommendations . However, since that time, there has been continued community interest in the proposed use of Lower Castaways, as well as potential alternate locations for the proposed aquatic center.

At the April 29, 2025, City Council Study Session, the City Council revisited the matter and voted unanimously to form a new ad hoc committee to re-examine the potential uses of the Lower Castaways property and to explore suitable site options for a future aquatic center .

As outlined in the draft resolution attached to this staff report, the Ad Hoc Committee on Utilization of Lower Castaways and Aquatic Center Site Options will be comprised of seven members: three City Councilmembers, one Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commissioner, one Planning Commissioner, one Harbor Commissioner, and one citizen member .

The City Clerk will issue a notice that the City is accepting applications for the citizen member position. Once applications have been received, Mayor Stapleton will make the final appointments for all committee members, subject to confirmation by the City Council.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact related to this item.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.

Agenda Item No. 8
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: David A. Webb, Public Works Director - 949-644-3311 , dawebb@newportbeachca .gov

TITLE: Superior Avenue and Hospital Road Pavement Rehabilitation (Project No. 23R 14) - Notice of Completion for Contract No. 8894-2 ABSTRACT:

On July 23, 2024, the City Council awarded Contract No. 8894-2 for the Superior Avenue and Hospital Road Pavement Rehabilitation project to R.J. Noble Company. The project reconstructed deteriorated concrete improvements , rehabilitated the asphalt pavement on Superior Avenue and Hospital Road, and extended the median landscaping on Superior Avenue . The work is now complete and staff requests City Council acceptance and close out of the contract.

RECOMMENDATION:
a) Accept the completed work and authorize the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion for the project.

DISCUSSION:

Overall Contract Cost/Time Summary

The contracted work has been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. A summary of the construction cost is as follows :

Original Bid Amount: $ 1 ,882,213.70
Actual Cost of Bid Items Constructed: $ 1 ,548,521 .96
Total Change Orders: $ 343,869.10
Final Contract Cost: $ 1,892,391.06
The final total contract amount was $1 ,892,391.06, which was approximately 0.5% higher than the original bid amount. The actual cost of bid items constructed was significantly less than the original bid amount due to the overestimation of the quantities needed for median excavation , imported fill, and asphalt concrete. With the project savings, staff approved a change order to repave portions of the Newport Pier parking lot. This parking lot is heavily used by visitors and the pavement has deteriorated . This change order includes restriping the entire parking lot in preparation for the upcoming busy summer season. Adding this needed parking lot work, combined with noted savings, resulted in the final contract cost being just slightly more than the original bid amount.

A summary of the project schedule milestones is as follows :

Estimated Start of Construction per Annual Baseline Schedule Actual Start of Construction Per Notice to Proceed
Estimated Completion per Annual Baseline Schedule
Substantial Completion Date Inclusive of Extra Work
September 9, 2024
October 14, 2024
January 24, 2025
March 25, 2025
The actual start of construction was postponed until the completion of the Superior Avenue Bridge and Parking Lot project, which is located within the proposed pavement rehabilitation limits. The contractor was allowed additional time to construct the modified drainage system as directed by staff. Additional contract time was also granted to account for the unavailability of asphalt material and paving the Newport Pier parking lot.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Superior Avenue and Hospital Road Pavement Rehabilitation project was included within the FY 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget. Funds for the construction contract were expended from the following accounts :

SB1 Road Maintenance & Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) revenues are State fuel and vehicle registration taxes imposed by the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017.

Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) provides Measure M funding , generated through a ½ cent sales tax, to the City for transportation improvement projects. The Water and Wastewater funds generate revenue primarily through water and wastewater rates collected from service users. The CalRecycle Grant fund comes from the State's CalRecycle Rubberized Grant Program, which promotes the use of rubberized asphalt concrete made from recycled waste tires generated in California. The program aims to decrease the adverse environmental impacts created by disposing and stockpiling of waste tires. Through CalRecycle , the City will be reimbursed up to $7 per ton of rubberized asphalt concrete used on the project.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

On July 23, 2024, the City Council found this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 (c), Class 1 (maintenance of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

TITLE: Central Library, OASIS Senior Center and VJ Community Center Carpet Replacement -Award of Contract No. 9750-1 (25F02) ABSTRACT:

The City of Newport Beach received construction bids for the Central Library, OASIS Senior Center and Vincent Jorgensen (VJ) Community Center Carpet Replacement project. Staff requests City Council approval to award the construction contract to Commercial Interior Resources of Irvine. This project involves replacing aging carpets at the Central Library (1000 Avocado Ave.), OASIS Senior Center (801 Narcissus Ave.) and VJ Community Center (1300 Irvine Ave.) .

RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Find this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines , California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because this project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment ;
b) Approve the project plans and specifications ;
c) Find the bid submitted by Rod-West Floor Covering LLC to be non-responsive ; d) Award Contract No. 9750-1 to Commercial Interior Resources for the total bid price of $151,070 for the Central Library, OASIS Senior Center and VJ Community Center Carpet Replacement , and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the contract; e) Establish a contingency of $15,000 (approximately 10% of total bid) to cover the cost of unforeseen work not included in the original contract.

DISCUSSION:

As part of the annual Facilities Maintenance Master Plan (FMMP) program, staff identified carpet at Central Library, OASIS Senior Center and VJ Community Center Carpet as needing replacement. These carpets receive intense use by the public and are aging and badly stained in places.

At 2 p.m. on April 2, 2025, the City Clerk opened and read the following bids for this project:

BIDDER TOTAL BID AMOUNT
Low Rod-West Floor Covering LLC $135,775.00
2nd Commercial Interior Resources $151,070.00
3rd Lawrence W. Rosine Co. $244,300.00
4th Floor Tech America $269,550.00
The City received four bids. The apparent low bidder, Rod-West Floor Covering LLC, did not provide hard copy bid bonds as required by the project specifications . Due to the lack of hard copy of bid bonds, staff recommends that the bid from Rod-West Floor Covering LLC be found non-responsive .

The second lowest bidder, Commercial Interior Resources, possesses a California State Contractor's License Classification "C-15", as required by the project specifications. A review of references for Commercial Interior Resources shows satisfactory completion of similar contracts for other public agencies including the City of Orange, the City of Cerritos, the California Community College System, Los Angeles County Library, the City of Glendale and Los Alamitos Unified School district.

Commercial Interior Resources' bid was approximately 37% below the Engineer's Estimate of $240,000. Pursuant to the contract specifications , the contractor will have eight consecutive weeks to complete the project. Work is scheduled to start in fall 2025.

The project plans and specifications will be available for review at the May 13, 2025 City Council meeting or upon request.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The adopted Capital Improvement Program budget includes sufficient funding for the award of this contract. The following funds will be expended :

TITLE: Professional Services Agreement with Deckard Technologies , Inc. for Short-Term Lodging Compliance & Hotline
ABSTRACT:

The City of Newport Beach currently contracts with a third-party vendor to monitor short-term lodging compliance and provide a 24/7 complaint hotline. With the existing agreement with GovOS Inc. expiring on August 31 , 2025, staff recommends that the City Council approve a new five-year agreement with Deckard Technologies. The proposed agreement includes compliance monitoring, rental activity reporting, public outreach, and a 24/7 bilingual hotline service, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $243,750 over the term of the contract.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment , directly or indirectly ; b) Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Deckard Technologies , Inc. for Short-Term Lodging Compliance and Hotline for five years for a not-to-exceed amount of $243,750 piggybacking off the procurement of the City of Oxnard's formal solicitation ; and
c) Authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute the agreement.

DISCUSSION:

The City's current agreement for short-term lodging (STL) compliance monitoring and 24/7 hotline services with GovOS Inc. is set to expire on August 31 , 2025.

Agenda Item No. 11
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Jeff Boyles, Fire Chief - 949-644-3101 , jboyles@nbfd .net PREPARED BY: Raymund Reyes, Administrative Manager - 949-644-3352 , rreyes@nbfd .net
TITLE: Approval of On-Call Health Screening Services Agreements ABSTRACT:

The City of Newport Beach relies on contracted medical providers to conduct various health screening services as required per applicable employment laws, City policies and employment procedures , and Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with employee bargaining groups. Following a Request for Proposals (RFP) selection process, the Fire and Human Resources Departments recommend approval of on-call agreements with Hoag Clinic, OBA Hoag Executive Health (Hoag) and The University of California at Irvine, Joe. C. Wen School of Population & Public Health, through its Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (UC Irvine) to provide health screening services.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment , directly or indirectly; b) Approve an On-Call Professional Services Agreement with Hoag Clinic, dba Hoag Executive Health, on a form approved by the City Attorney , with a not-to-exceed amount of $925,000 and a five-year term; and
c) Approve an On-Call Professional Services Agreement with The Regents of the University of California on behalf of the University of California at Irvine Joe C. Wen School of Population and Public Health, on a form approved by the City Attorney , with a not-to-exceed amount of $500,000 and a five-year term.

DISCUSSION:

Background
The City uses contracted health screening service providers to conduct a range of required medical screening services. Some services are tied to pre-employment requirements and City policies; others are specific to MOUs. The Human Resources Department oversees most health screening services, while the Fire Department oversees the annual physical process for its Fire Operations and Lifeguard Operations personnel. The following sections provide an overview of the services typically conducted. 11-1

Pre-Employment Physical Examinations
Pre-employment physical examinations are currently administered at two levels. Class II exams consist of a basic physical, vital sign check, urine drug screening, tuberculosis testing, and vision test, along with a complete medical and health history review by a physician, including a review of the job description . This exam is required for seasonal lifeguard, recreation leader, and maintenance/trade positions . Class Ill exams include the Class II exam plus comprehensive lab work, stressed and non-stressed electrocardiography (ECG) tests, a hearing exam, and spirometry measurements .

Class 111 exams are required for all public safety positions.

Fitness for Duty Evaluations
A fitness for duty evaluation is required following an injury and prior to returning to full duty. This involves a complete medical, occupational and relevant history review by a physician, physical examination , recommendations by the examining physician for additional diagnostic studies or consultations , and a physician's completion of a "Employer Exam Report," which indicates the employee's work status.

DOT I OMV Specific Testing
Positions that require a commercial driver's license undergo California Department of Motor Vehicle (DMW) specific physicals, along with both pre-employment and random drug and alcohol tests. The drug and alcohol tests are Department of Transportation (DOT) compliant and use chain-of-custody protocols per City policy.

Miscellaneous Tests
Various other tests and labs are utilized depending on the City's needs and requirements for a specific position. These can include specialized labs, hepatitis titers, rabies vaccinations for animal control personnel, respiratory fit testing (used for employees that use respiratory protection equipment , such as firefighters) , skin screening services for lifeguards (as mandated under their respective MOUs), and more.

Fire Department Annual Physicals
Annual physicals are more comprehensive than the Class 111 pre-employment physicals; they consist of a detailed review and evaluation of an employee's medical history, a complete physical workup, a review of medical systems (including cardiovascular , gastrointestinal , endocrine, neurological systems), fitness assessments , ECG tests, X-rays, vision/hearing tests, urinalysis, and post-screening reviews. Annual physicals assist in maintaining an optimal level of health for Fire and full-time lifeguard personnel, providing reassurance that personnel are fit for duty.

Fire Department Policy incorporates a fitness program that includes an annual physical component. Participation in the program is also outlined within the Newport Beach Firefighters Association , Lifeguard Management Association , and Newport Beach Fire Management Association MOUs. The program and the physicals are intended to support the physical health and overall well-being of public safety personnel and mitigate protentional health impacts related to their duties.

Per the terms of the Key and Management Compensation Plan, employees in the Executive Management classification are also eligible for similar, executive-level annual physicals .

Procurement and Selection Process
Following a 2020 RFP process for health screening services, the City Council approved agreements with the top four ranking providers (from a field of nine proposals) at the December 8, 2020 City Council meeting. Newport Center Medical Group (Newport Center Medical) was selected to provide Fire Department annual physicals; Hoag was selected for executive physicals, lifeguard skin screenings , and Class 111 examinations ; Marque Medical Clinic, Inc. (Marque Medical) would provide OMV physicals, Class II exams, drug and alcohol testing, plus various testing and other services; and Sand Canyon Medical Group (Sand Canyon Medical) would provide Class II and Class Ill exams and OMV physicals . All agreements were given five-year terms with an expiration date of November 15, 2025; not-to-exceed compensation amounts were adjusted to reflect estimated use.

In summer 2023, Newport Center Medical announced that its practice would be transitioning to a personalized , concierge-style medical practice and would no longer be available for use by the Fire Department. In 2024, the Fire Department continued the department's fitness program with a temporary pause on annual physicals and began discussions with the Human Resources Department on a new procurement process. It was agreed that a procurement could be started in advance of the November 2025 termination dates of the remaining contracts. A new RFP for on-call health screening services was posted via the City's public bidding portal (PlanetBids) in November 2024. 194 medical service providers were notified through PlanetBids; 23 prospective bidders viewed or downloaded the RFP, and seven proposers submitted a response by the January 28, 2025 deadline .

One of the firms, Rancho Santiago Community College District (Santa Ana College), submitted a response for the provision of health and wellness courses and not medical screening services. Santa Ana College was contacted and informed that they would be considered non-responsive ; Fire Department staff already enroll in course offerings from Santa Ana College as part of the department's fitness program .

Due to the medical professional nature of the service, the procurement was conducted as a qualifications-based RFP in accordance with the City's Administrative Policies and Procedures . Proposal evaluations were rated solely on qualifications , experience , method of approach, familiarity with the services requested , understanding of employment-related medical testing, and expertise in various health and medical regulations . Following a technical review and evaluation of all proposals by a combination of Human Resources and Fire Department personnel, Hoag and UC Irvine were ranked as the two highest scoring proposers .

Both Hoag and UC Irvine submitted proposals detailing premier medical facilities, experienced staff, organized procedures , and high-quality medical services. Hoag is well-versed in providing comprehensive annual physicals. It operates two of the largest and most successful specialty clinical exam programs in the western United States; the Hoag First Responder Program and the Hoag Executive Health Program. UC Irvine's Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (COEH), under the Joe C. Wen School of Population and Public Health, is the only university-based occupational medicine practice in Orange County. UC Irvine boasts extensive experience in occupational medicine and previously provided the City with health screening services from approximately 2001 to 2019; it currently provides medical screening services for the Orange County Fire Authority.

Staff is requesting City Council approval of agreements with Hoag and UC Irvine for on-call health screening services. Hoag would primarily be used for the Fire Department's annual physicals while UC Irvine would provide pre-employment exams and other City health screening needs. However, given the capabilities of both providers, the Human Resources and Fire Departments would have the operational flexibility of using either contract to ensure the best use of available resources and funding, depending on the need.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Although this was a qualifications-based RFP process in which costs were not considered as part of the evaluation/scoring process, staff did review each of the top three ranked firms' cost proposals to confirm if pricing was within a reasonable range of one another .

Staff also looked at the 2020 agreement rates, considered the inflationary and market trends that have been prevalent over the last several years, and the use of outside laboratories for lab testing by most clinics. Standard pre-employment physicals saw typical increases from 2020 agreement rates; lab tests varied but most changes were minor.

The rate offered by Hoag is $1 ,250 for fire department annual physicals, while UC Irvine's costs are $1 ,194. Hoag and UC Irvine rates for executive and fire department physicals were within reason of one another . The third-ranked firm (On Duty Health) was approximately $700 higher than either provider due to its service delivery model being completely mobile. There are approximately 146 employees that are eligible for annual physical services . This includes firefighters , firefighter-paramedics , engineers , captains, and other positions designated in the Newport Beach Fire Association MOU; permanent lifeguard staff consisting of officers, captains, lifeguard battalion chiefs; and sworn management and executive positions including the fire chief, assistant chiefs, and battalion chiefs.

The department currently budgets $92,458 towards annual physicals, lab work, and related as-needed medical/health screening services . Assuming a 90-100% participation rate for eligible Fire Department employees , plus any as-needed lab work or tests, it is estimated that annual costs with Hoag could approach up to $185,000 annually. A five-year on-call agreement with a not-to-exceed compensation amount of $925,000 is proposed . Additional funding of $91 ,000 is requested. If approved, the Fire Department Physicals Account, 01040401-811016 , will be increased from $92,458 to $183,458 as part of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 budget.

Citywide pre-employment physicals, fit-for-duty exams, and other related exams and tests are funded through the Human Resources Department. Services are paid out of the Human Resources Physicals Account , 01025005-811016 . The proposed General Fund Budget for FY 2025-26 already includes a $25,000 increase to this account. A five-year agreement with UC Irvine, with a not-to-exceed compensation amount of $500,000, is proposed .

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment , directly or indirectly.

City Council Staff Report

Agenda Item No. 12
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Barbara J. Salvini, Human Resources Director - 949-644-3300 , [email protected]
PREPARED BY: Sarah Rodriguez, Human Resources Manager - 949-644-3301 , srod riguez@newportbeachca .gov
Status of City of Newport Beach Vacancies and Retention Efforts TITLE: Pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3
ABSTRACT:

Assembly Bill (AB) No. 2561 adds Government Code section 3502.3 to the Meyers-Milias­ Brown Act (MMBA), imposing new obligations on public agencies, requiring them to report on their job vacancies and recruitment efforts at least once per fiscal year, prior to the adoption of the budget. The law provides employee organizations with the opportunity to present their views and, depending upon the vacancy level, request additional information on vacancies within their bargaining units. AB 2561 is designed to help avoid the negative effects understaffing has on the delivery of public services as well as on public employees .

RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in a physical change to the environment , directly or indirectly; and
b) Receive and consider the Status of City of Newport Beach Vacancies and Retention Efforts pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3.

DISCUSSION:

Effective January 1, 2025, California Government Code requires the City of Newport Beach to publicly report information regarding vacancy rates and recruitment and retention efforts. This reporting must be done at least once a fiscal year, prior to budget adoption . The presentation must include tracking vacancies and reporting on the City's recruitment and retention efforts. Additionally , the public hearing provides an opportunity to identify any policies, procedures and/or recruitment efforts which may create challenges in the City's hiring process. In those cases, the City should also identify potential changes to alleviate any hiring obstacles .

If the vacancy rate in a particular bargaining unit exceeds 20% of the total number of authorized full-time positions, that bargaining unit's labor representative may request additional information which the City must provide, including the total number of job vacancies within the bargaining unit; the total number of applicants for the bargaining unit's vacant positions; the average number of days to complete the hiring process once a position has been posted; and what opportunities exist to improve compensation and other working conditions . Employee organizations are also permitted to make a presentation at the public hearing when the City makes its presentation .

The City has seven full-time employee collective bargaining associations , one full-time employee union, and one unrepresented full-time group (collectively referred to as units).

Based on the current data, none of the units has a vacancy rate exceeding 20% of the total number of authorized full-time positions. The specific vacancy information is contained in Table A:
