Currently the Planning Division is staffed with a Senior Planner and Assistant Planner.

The part-time Planning Aide position will fill a crucial supportive role within the Planning Division. The Planning Aide will perform routine technical and administrative work in providing staff assistance to the Planning Division and provide general support as needed to other Divisions within the Department; perform analytical, technical and selected planning work; conduct studies and research projects; assist Planners with the preparation of reports for submission to the City Council and Planning Commission; participate in special projects utilizing routine planning principles and techniques related to planning, zoning and environmental issues; and attend Planning Commission meetings to take and transcribe meeting minutes.

Staff is requesting the authority to create a new part-time position of Planning Aide in order to address the current needs of the Planning Division. In order to maintain internal equity and also be competitive with other agencies, staff recommends the part-time Planning Aide salary range be set at PT18 ($24.34 to $30.40 hourly). Approval of the position title and salary range will allow Community Development to fill the position.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This is a part-time position limited to 1,000 hours per fiscal year. The estimated annual cost for this position is approximately $32,000. The budget appropriation was previously approved for this position in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Operating Budget.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.E.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Public Works Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:

Amendment of FY 2023-27 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to include additional funding for the MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project and authorization to increase contract amount for the Norco MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project
RECOMMENDATION:

Appropriate additional funding in the amount of $49,000 for FY 2023-27 CIP storm drain fund and approve additional contract amount of $49,000 for the Norco MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project.

SUMMARY:

GCI Construction, Inc. was awarded a contract to install storm drain and street improvements on California Avenue in an amount of $826,685, plus the City Manager was authorized to approve change orders up to 10 percent of contract award amount.

The contract needs to be increased in order to pay project costs that exceeded the original contract award amount plus the 10 percent contingency previously authorized. Staff recommends the approval of additional contract amount in the amount of $49,000 above the 10 percent contingency for the Norco MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project.

BACKGROUND:

On August 17, 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to GCI Construction, Inc. to construct the Norco MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project. The awarded contract was to install a new storm drain system (funded by Flood Control) and street improvements (funded by City) for a bid amount of $826,685 with approved change orders up to 10 percent, or $82,669. Due to the lowering of the roadway on the east side of California two residences reported issues with their large transport and RV vehicles scraping the new asphalt and driveway areas. To mitigate this issue the City had to attempt multiple significant driveway modifications (both on and off property) in order to lessen the slope of the driveway. The City also installed concrete from their existing driveway to the newly installed curb for both homes and installed new concrete steps from the pedestrian walkway to the parkway. This additional work, in conjunction with other miscellaneous increased street work construction quantities resulted in change orders totaling $96,212.

Council previously approved a total street improvement budget amount of $479,000 including the 10% contingency amount of $47,900. The City's share of the overall budget is not sufficient to pay for the additional change order work. Because the additional change order work is related to the City-funded street work, it cannot be paid for by Flood Control.

It is recommended that City Council approve the amendment of the 2023-2027 CIP Budget to increase the City's project budget and approve the additional contract amount of $49,000 from City funds, resulting in a total budget amount of $958,354.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Norco MDP Line N-1G Storm Drain Project was approved as Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) in the Storm Drain Fund (Fund 129) & the Street Fund (Fund 149) for FY 2022-23. City Council previously authorized a contract award amount of $909,354 ($826,685 plus 10% contingency) that was split between two funding sources ($431,000 for storm drain, $479,000 for streets). The change order work totaling $96,212 cannot be paid from the Riverside County Flood Control agreement as this street improvement work was specifically excluded from the County's Funding Agreement.

The request for an additional $49,000 will result in an overall street improvement funding amount of $528,000 resulting in a total project construction contract amount of $958,354 that will provide adequate funds for the additional street improvement work.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

The amendment to the FY 2023-2027 CIP Budget and increased contract amount request is consistent with Strategic Direction #5 – “Ensure timely preservation, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets." REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY:

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.F.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Public Works Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:

Approval of contract for professional public works inspection services.

RECOMMENDATION:

City Council to approve the award of contract to Z&K Consultants, Inc. to provide professional inspection services for the Public Works Department for fiscal year 2023-24 in an amount not to exceed $220,000.

SUMMARY:

Inspectors are a critical element in the oversight of capital improvement projects and general permits for work in the public right-of-way. The City utilizes contact inspection services from multiple vendors for full-time inspection and for one-time project specific needs. Staff is seeking to replace one of the full-time Inspector using an alternate vendor.

Council is being asked to approve a professional services contract with Z&K Consultants, Inc. to provide staffing for public works inspection services.

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department uses on-call inspection services from Willdan for public works related projects and currently utilizes two Willdan inspectors to meet the needs of the department. However, the department has recently determined a need to look for an alternate/replacement Inspector and the staff elected to interview additional candidates from the City's pre-approved vendor list for Inspection services. Based on the interviews conducted, staff determined Z&K Consultants, Inc. could provide a qualified Inspector(s) immediately to replace one of the existing Inspectors.

Staff is recommending that City Council award a contract to Z&K Consultants, Inc. to provide professional inspection services for the Public Works Department for fiscal year 2023-24 in an amount not to exceed $220,000.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost to fund two contract inspectors is already budgeted in the Public Works Operations Budget and as part of each project listed in the Public Works Capital Improvement Projects Budget.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

Approval of the inspection services contract is consistent with Strategic Plan Goals No. 2 - Human Capital: Build a sustainable workforce to meet the needs of all stakeholders and No. 5 - Infrastructure & Asset Management: Ensure timely preservation, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets.

Upon request of City, Consultant shall immediately furnish City with a complete copy of any insurance policy required under this Agreement, including all endorsements, with said copy certified by the underwriter to be a true and correct copy of the original policy.

CA-8
supervision of Consultant, vendors, suppliers, invitees, sub-consultants, subconsultants, or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.

Accept the dedication of street right-of-way at APN 121-050-001 on Bluff Street, authorize the Mayor to sign the Certificate of Acceptance, and authorize the City Clerk to record the Grant Deed.

SUMMARY:

The property owners of the parcel located at 4898 Bluff Street (APN 121-050-001) have been requested to dedicate property for right-of-way purposes to the City of Norco in order to provide the required 30' half-street width along Bluff Street.

BACKGROUND:

During the review of the Bluff Street Waterline Improvement Project it was determined that the public right-of-way half-street width along 4898 Bluff Street was never accepted by the City of Norco or the County of Riverside. In order to provide the required 30-foot half-street per the City's local street standard, a 30-foot property dedication is required to be made to the City of Norco.

The property owners have submitted an executed Right-of-Way Legal and Plat Map and Grant Deed (See Legal & Plat) to the City in conformance with the Norco Municipal Code.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Not applicable for this item.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

Acceptance of Public Right-of-Way is consistent with Strategic Direction #5 - Ensure timely preservations, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.H.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Public Works Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:

Revise currently vacant Utility Maintenance Worker to a Water Quality Control Technician Position for Public Works
RECOMMENDATION:

City Council approve adjusting the recently approved full-time Utility Maintenance Work position to a full-time Water Quality Control Technician.

SUMMARY:

The Public Works Department requested to add a new full-time Utility Maintenance Worker as part of the fiscal year 2023-24 operations budget and was granted approval by City Council. However, the City's consultant that performed a Public Works Operational Assessment on the department has listed multiple staffing needs within the department that should be considered. Based on the recommendations, the Public Works Director is requesting to revise the recently added full-time Utility Maintenance Worker to a full-time Water Quality Control Technician.

BACKGROUND:

As part of the fiscal year 2023-24 budget approval process, the City Council authorized Public Works to add one full-time Utility Maintenance Worker position to help bolster staffing levels to meet department workload. This new position is currently unfilled. Shortly after the budget was approved the City completed the Public Works Operational Assessment for the entire department. Overall, the assessment was conducted to ensure that the overall efficiency of the department is functioning at an optimal level, resources are being allocated effectively, and general expenditures for staffing, maintenance and capital improvement projects have sufficient financial support to meet actual needs.

One of the findings from the assessment was Recommendation No. 1 - Increase capacity for water treatment and supply management by adding an additional or converting an existing position to a Water Quality Control Technician. The Public Works Department employs two Water Quality Control Technicians, who are the Department’s only certified

water treatment operators. The Water Quality Control Technicians’ primary specialty is the operation of the Department’s groundwater treatment plant. However, their overarching role is the provision of adequate water supply to the City through local water production and the scheduling of water deliveries from wholesale suppliers. This role is of critical importance, and several factors complicate this work.

The assessment report states "Given the critical role that the Water Quality Control Technicians play in the City, the constant monitoring required by the water system, and the time required to recruit, hire, and train new staff members, the Department is exposed to a certain level of operational risk by the simple fact that there are only two Water Quality Control Technicians. To better address its operational risk, the Department should add a third Water Quality Control Technician."
The Director of Public Works has reviewed this recommendation with supervisory and field staff and determined the Department would be better served at this time to revise the currently unfilled full-time Utility Maintenance Worker position with a full-time Water Quality Control Technician. Both positions are within the same salary range and therefore there will not be any financial impacts to the budget.

Staff is recommending the City Council approve adjusting the recently approved full-time Utility Maintenance Work position to a full-time Water Quality Control Technician.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The salary schedule for the Water Quality Control Technician is within the same range as the Utility Maintenance Worker. Therefore, there is no financial impact to the budget as a Utility Maintenance Worker position was included in the FY 2023-24 Operating Budget.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

Approval to revise the full-time position is consistent with Strategic Plan Goal No. 2 - Human Capital: Build a sustainable workforce to meet the needs of all stakeholders.

SUMMARY:

Currently, the Public Works Department owns a 2007 Ford Expedition which has been due for replacement for several years. The Expedition is shared by the two Utility Compliance Coordinators and the department has evaluated their overall vehicle needs, and is now requesting to purchase a 2024 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck. This vehicle is used for the maintenance of the water meters, backflow inspections, NPDES inspections, trash inspections, and carrying miscellaneous equipment and tools.

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department owns and operates 2007 Ford Expedition (Unit 413) to carry tools and equipment to perform miscellaneous maintenance and inspections in the field. This vehicle is due for replacement and Public Works has been allocating replacement funds annually to cover the cost for the replacement. Staff has obtained the attached quote in the amount of $57,053 from Hemborg Ford to provide a 2024 Ford F150 Pickup Truck.

The cost for purchasing the new service truck includes pickup box, spray in bed liner, deck drawer system for storage, and safety warning lights that follow the State of California, Title 13 requirements. The purchase price does include a three year/36,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty and five year/60,000 mile warranty on the powertrain.

Staff is recommending the City Council accept the quote from Hemborg Ford, Norco, CA, for one (1) 2024 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck and authorize the City Manager to approve a purchase order in the amount of $57,053.

FISCAL IMPACT:

An amount not to exceed $58,000 including tax, shipping and State of California licensing fee is available from replacement reserves accumulated from the Vehicle Replacement Fund 128.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

The purchase of the new 2024 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck is consistent with Strategic Direction #5 - Infrastructure & Asset Management: Ensure timely preservation, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Public Works Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:

Purchase of 2024 Ford F-650 Service Truck from PB Loader Corporation RECOMMENDATION:

Accept the quote from PB Loader Corporation, Fresno, CA, for one (1) 2024 Ford F-650 Service Truck and authorize the City Manager to approve a purchase order in the amount of $201,842.

SUMMARY:

The Public Works Department currently uses a dump truck to pull the vactor trailers around town when repairing water leaks. Public Works is seeking to purchase a larger service vehicle that has enough towing capacity to pull the vactor trailers. Staff has obtained a quote from PB Loader Corporation for a new 2024 F-650 Service Truck and is recommending City Council approve the purchase using funds allocated for this vehicle in the budget.

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department uses vactor trailers to perform maintenance and repairs related to water leaks. The vactor trailers exceed the weight limit to be towed by a traditional service truck and staff uses a dump truck to pull the trailers. However, using the dump truck still requires staff bring a service truck that has all the parts and tools needed to perform repairs. The department is seeking to purchase a new Ford F-650 service truck that will have enough tow capacity to hold all the standard tools/parts/materials and pull the vactor trailers. This will allow staff to only need one primary service vehicle.

The purchase of this new vehicle was identified and approved as part of the Capital Improvement Program Budget for Fiscal Year 2023-24. Staff has obtained the attached quote in the amount of $201,842 from PB Loader Corporation to provide a 2024 Ford F650 Service Truck through a cooperative contract agreement with Sourcewell, Contract No. 164891, which is used by County, State and local municipalities.

Sourcewell provides and procures cooperative agreements with vendors and manufacturers throughout the United States to provide best pricing for governmental agencies for equipment and materials under the Federal Government Procurement Standards, Office of Management and Budget Uniform Guidance (2.CFR.Part-200). The Norco Municipal Code (Sec.3.24.140) gives authority to purchase from cooperative agreements to benefit from best pricing for governmental agencies through volume procurement.

The cost for purchasing the 2024 Ford F-650 Service Truck includes F650 chassis, regular cab, 6.7L V8 diesel engine, 10-speed automatic, utility storage cabinets, and safety warning lights that follow the State of California, Title 13 requirements. The purchase price does include a three-year/36,000 mile warranty and five-year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty.

It is recommended that the City Council accept the quote from PB Loader Corporation, Fresno, CA, for one (1) 2024 Ford F-650 Service Truck and authorize the City Manager to approve a purchase order in the amount of $201,842.

FISCAL IMPACT:

An amount not to exceed $202,000 including tax, shipping and State of California licensing fee is available from replacement reserves in the amount of $77,000 from the Vehicle Replacement Fund 128 and $125,000 as part of the new vehicle purchase authorized as part of the Capital Improvement Project Budget.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

The purchase of the new 2024 Ford F-650 Service Truck is consistent with Strategic Direction #5 - Infrastructure & Asset Management: Ensure timely preservation, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.K.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Alma Robles, Planning Director
Department: Code Enforcement
SUBJECT:

Adoption of a Resolution by the City Council authorizing the extension of the service fee collected on behalf of the Riverside County Abandoned Vehicle Abatement (AVA) Service Authority until May 2034
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. 2023-58, authorizing the extension of the service fee collected on behalf of the Riverside County AVA Service Authority until May 2034 SUMMARY:

The service fee collected as part of the AVA Service Authority program is set to expire in May 2024. The California Vehicle Code § 9250.7 allows for an extension of the service fee collected as part of the AVA program in increments of up to 10 years each if the board of supervisors of the county, by a two-thirds vote, and a majority of the cities comprising a majority of the population of the incorporated areas within the county adopt resolutions providing for the extension of the service fee.

BACKGROUND:

The Riverside County AVA Service Authority was formed on or about June 1, 1994, pursuant to the provisions of California Vehicle Code §§ 9950.7 and 22710 enacted by the Legislature in 1990 which authorize the establishment of a service authority and imposition of a service fee on all registered motor vehicles located within a county.

Beginning in June 1994 and continuing to the present, the Riverside County AVA Service Authority has been the recipient of service fees collected on its behalf by the California Department of Motor Vehicles.

The service fees received by the Riverside County AVA Service Authority are used to reimburse local governmental agencies for a portion of their costs incurred as a result of the abatement, removal and disposal as public nuisances of any abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles or parts thereof. The Riverside County AVA Service

Authority apportions and distributes service fee proceeds to each member agency according to the formula set forth in California Vehicle Code §§ 22710.

Since the establishment of the AVA program in June 1994, it has disbursed $35,128,331 in service fee proceeds to member agencies and caused the abatement of approximately 189,776 abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles located in various cities and the unincorporated area of Riverside County.

The service fee collected as a part of the AVA Program is set to expire in May 2024.

However, recent legislation allows for an extension of the service fee collected as part of the AVA program in increments of up to 10 years each if the board of supervisors of the county, by a two-thirds vote, and a majority of the cities comprising a majority of the population of the incorporated areas within the county, adopt resolutions providing for the extension of the service fee.

Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the extension of the service fee collected on behalf of the Riverside County AVA Service Authority until May 2034.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Over the 10 years of the program, it is projected that the City will receive as much as $148,000 to the General Fund from this source.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is consistent with Strategic Plan Direction No. 1 - Public Health, Safety and Wellness: Enhance quality of life by promoting public health, safety and wellness initiatives for all community members.

The existing pickup truck is shared by the Public Works field staff to perform various duties. The department has evaluated their overall vehicle needs, and is now requesting to purchase a 2024 Ford F-350 Service Truck.

BACKGROUND:

The Public Works Department owns and operates 2013 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck (Unit 555) to perform miscellaneous public works field maintenance duties. This vehicle is due for replacement and Public Works has been allocating replacement funds annually to cover the cost for the replacement. However, after evaluating the field staff needs related to work vehicles, the department is seeking to replace the pickup truck with a larger service truck as part of the department's effort to standardize service trucks, equipment and tools carried. Therefore, staff has obtained the attached quote in the amount of $130,476 from PB Loader Corporation to provide a 2024 Ford F-350 Service Truck through a cooperative contract agreement with Sourcewell, Contract No. 164891, which is used by County, State and local municipalities.

Sourcewell provides and procures cooperative agreements with vendors and manufacturers throughout the United States to provide best pricing for governmental agencies for equipment and materials under the Federal Government Procurement Standards, Office of Management and Budget Uniform Guidance (2.CFR.Part-200). The Norco Municipal Code (Sec.3.24.140) gives authority to purchase from cooperative

agreements to benefit from best pricing for governmental agencies through volume procurement.

The new 2024 Ford F-350 Service Truck will replace the City's existing 2013 Ford F-150 Pickup Truck which was previously scheduled to be replaced during fiscal year 2018- 2019. The cost for purchasing the new service truck includes F350 chassis, 4x2 regular cab, 7.3L V-8 engine, lift gate, utility storage bins, and safety warning lights that follow the State of California, Title 13 requirements. The purchase price does include a threeyear/36,000 mile warranty and five-year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty.

Staff is recommending the City Council accept the quote from PB Loader Corporation, Fresno, CA, for one (1) 2024 Ford F-350 Service Truck and authorize the City Manager to approve a purchase order in the amount of $130,476.

FISCAL IMPACT:

An amount not to exceed $131,000 including tax, shipping and State of California licensing fee is available from replacement reserves for this purchase from the Vehicle Replacement Fund 128.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

The purchase of the new 2024 Ford F-350 Service Truck is consistent with Strategic Direction #5 - Infrastructure & Asset Management: Ensure timely preservation, replacement, improvement and acquisition of infrastructure and capital assets.

Requires valid FIN code.

Ford is increasing the 5-year 60,000-mile limited powertrain warranty to 5- years, 100,000 miles. Only Fleet purchasers with a valid Fleet Identification Number (FIN code) will receive the extended warranty.

When the sale is entered into the sales reporting system with a sales type fleet along with a valid FIN code, the warranty extension will automatically be added to the vehicle. The extension will stay with the vehicle even if it is subsequently sold to a non-fleet customer before the expiration. This extension applies to both gas and diesel powertrains. Dealers can check for the warranty extension on eligible fleet vehicles in OASIS. Please refer to the Warranty and Policy Manual section 3.13.00 Gas Engine Commercial Warranty. This change will also be reflected in the printed Warranty Guided distributed with the purchase of every new vehicle.

STAFF REPORT
Date: September 6, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.M.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Lori Sassoon, City Manager
Department: Administration
SUBJECT:

Consideration of approval of Amendment No. 1 to the Professional Services Agreement with California Strategies for project management services related to the RTRP undergrounding
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve the Amendment and the related budget appropriation.

SUMMARY:

Earlier in 2023, the City initiated an effort with regional partners to pursue the undergrounding of the high-voltage transmission lines proposed for construction as part of the Riverside Transmission Reliability Project (RTRP). Steven Larson of California Strategies was retained in March 2023 to provide project management services for this project; that agreement will expire on September 15, 2023. It is recommended that the agreement be extended for an additional three (3) months at this time.

BACKGROUND:

The RTRP Project originated in 2004 with the goal of providing the city of Riverside with a second means of connection to the state's utility grid. This new connection is planned with the construction of high-voltage electricity transmission lines and some limited underground portions from western Riverside, through county unincorporated areas, northeastern Norco, Eastvale and Jurupa Valley. A two-mile segment through Jurupa Valley is planned for undergrounding as a result of previous legal action. Attachment A shows the planned route for the RTRP along with existing fire hazard zones.

Since the inception of this project, the City of Norco has expressed support for the goals of the city of Riverside, while at the same time expressing strong opposition to the construction of the overhead power lines. The construction of hazardous above-ground transmission lines across a fire-prone area along the Santa Ana River, a prime recreational destination, is of great and very serious concern. The City of Norco’s efforts

to underground these transmission lines reflects a dynamic currently playing out in communities across America. Not only is undergrounding a priority in wildfire-prone California, but increasingly volatile weather events of all kinds, which are sure to intensify in the future, are bringing new attention to undergrounding major transmission lines everywhere. In addition to concerns over fire and other natural disasters, the project will disproportionately impact disadvantaged communities while creating visual scarring and other adverse impacts to the environment.

In early 2023, the Riverside City Council took action to form a Working Group of stakeholders from Riverside, Norco, and state and federal legislative delegations to pursue funding for the RTRP undergrounding. On a parallel track, the City of Norco retained California Strategies to lead our efforts in advocating for the undergrounding project.

The recommended amendment to the California Strategies professional services agreement will allow additional time for Steve Larson's assistance with the next phases of the City's effort. Additional extensions can be considered by the Council at a later date, depending upon the project needs.

Approval of this item is recommended by the City's RTRP Subcommittee (Mayor Pro Tem Bash and Councilmember Newton).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The cost for the three month extension is $8,333 per month, for a total of $24,999. It is requested that the City Council appropriate funds for this expense from the General Fund unappropriated fund balance as part of this action.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item supports Strategic Direction 1 - Public Safety and Wellness: Enhance the quality of life by promoting public health, safety, and wellness initiatives for all community members.

2.N.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Public Works Director
Department: City Council
SUBJECT:

Approve Advertising of the Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services Request for Proposal
RECOMMENDATION:

City Council direct staff to advertise the Request for Proposal for Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services for the City of Norco.

SUMMARY:

The City's franchise waste hauler contract expires June 30, 2024. The City has been actively working with R3 Consulting Group, Inc. to develop a request for proposal for new Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services for the City of Norco. A draft contract agreement has been developed and included in the request for proposal for all proposers to review. The submittal of proposals is expected to be completed in October 2023 with review and interviews to follow over the course of several months. Due to the quickly approaching expiration of the current trash hauler contract, it is recommended that the City Council approve the advertising of the request for proposal for Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services.

BACKGROUND:

The City's existing franchise waste hauler agreement will expire June 30, 2024. City Council previously directed staff to work with the City's consultant R3 Consulting Group, Inc. (R3) to conduct a formal request for proposal (RFP) process to determine the next waste hauler to provide comprehensive and cost effective disposal and recycling services to meet Norco's residential and commercial needs. City staff and R3 have conducted a comprehensive review of existing service levels and potential service enhancements to develop the scope of services for the Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services RFP.

The scope includes existing services and proposes new services to be included within the next franchise agreement. In addition, the RFP includes proposed changes to future waste hauler fees and payments to the City.

The RFP advertisement is tentatively scheduled on September 7, 2023, with proposals due by October 20, 2023. The proposal evaluations, negotiations, and City Council consideration are an expected four to five month process. The accelerated procurement schedule would allow for an approximately six month transition period should a new hauler be selected by the City Council.

The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with a summary of the proposed scope of services for inclusion in the City's next solid waste franchise agreement and procurement schedule. Please note the RFP does include a draft agreement for the potential vendors to review and consider as a baseline but final contract language and requirements will be negotiated with the selected vendor.

The draft RFP document was provided to the Manure Subcommittee and reviewed at their meeting on August 28th. The Subcommittee provide some minor comments that have been incorporated in the RFP and is recommending the City Council authorize staff to advertise the RFP Solid Waste and Recycling Collection Services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no financial impact with City Council authorizing staff to move forward with advertising the request for proposals to obtain trash hauler proposals.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

Approval to publish the request for proposal for trash hauler services is consistent with Strategic Plan Goal No. 3 - Economic Development & Financial Stability: Assure financial stability by expanding development efforts, diversifying revenue sources and continuing prudent financial management.
