CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:
A. Adopt a Resolution approving an Agreement regarding Community Facilities District No. 52 (Sundance Park) for Assessor Parcel Number (LD Parcel 1) 0218-211-01-0000 and Fee In-Lieu (the “Agreement”) between the City of Ontario and BrookCal Ontario, LLC (the “Developer”); and
B. Authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to finalize, execute, and record said Agreement.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Focus Resources in Ontario's Commercial and Residential Neighborhoods Ensure the Development of a Well Planned, Balanced, and Self-Sustaining Community in Ontario Ranch
FISCAL IMPACT: The Agreement will allow the City to collect $235,398 for Special Tax A and $66,390 for Special Tax B from the Developer since the formation of Community Facilities District No. 52 (Sundance Park) was not formed in time to levy the special taxes on the property for Fiscal Year 2024-25. The special tax revenues will be included in the Fiscal Year 2024-25 next quarterly budget update to pay for administrative fees and municipal services. The net fiscal impact to the General Fund is a revenue of approximately $60,000 to pay for City provided services.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: On June 7, 2022, the City and BrookCal Ontario, LLC, entered into that certain Development Agreement (File No. PDA21-014) (the “Development Agreement”). Pursuant to Section 5.1 of the Development Agreement, the Developer must form a community facilities district 27 (the “CFD”) which consists of the property, pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (commencing with Government Code Section 53311) prior to recordation of any parcel map and issuance of building permits. The Owner petitioned the City to establish a community facilities district known as Community Facilities District No. 52 (Sundance Park), and on August 20, 2024, the City did establish the CFD, relating to the development of and to include Assessor Parcel Number 0218-211-01-0000 (the property), and the CFD was not formed in time to meet the County of San Bernardino's deadline to place the levy of the CFD special taxes on the annual tax roll for Fiscal Year 2024-25.
The City and Developer desire to enter into this Agreement, which requires that the Developer pay the City an amount equal to what otherwise would have been the special tax levy amount on permitted parcels in the CFD for the Fiscal Year 2024-25 levy period, since the CFD was not formed by August 10, 2024.
The attached Resolution approves the Agreement and authorizes its execution by the City Manager or either of his designees.

City Council approval will be required to process annual special tax levies in future years.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (the Act) provides local government, with the consent from a majority of the property owners, the authority to establish community facilities districts for the purpose of levying special taxes to fund municipal services.

On that date, an election was held in which the qualified electors of the Community Facilities District approved said proposition by more than the two-thirds vote required by the Act. Adoption of the proposed 38 ordinance to authorize the levy of special taxes within the Community Facilities District will conclude the formation process for City of Ontario Community Facilities District No. 72 (Loma Creek Logistics Center Services).
The Loma Creek Logistics Center Services project addresses the development of approximately
23.87 gross acres located generally south of Chino Avenue, north of Ontario Ranch Road, west of Mill Creek Avenue, and east of Haven Avenue. At buildout, the project is expected to include 535,168 square feet of industrial space.

THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Maintain the Current High Level of Public Safety
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost of the vehicles recommended for purchase is $3,088,262 plus a 10% contingency of $308,826 for a total not-to-exceed amount of $3,397,088. The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes partial appropriations in the Equipment Services Fund for the purchase of the vehicles listed above. If approved, additional appropriations will be requested, as needed, in future quarterly budget updates to the City Council for approval.
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The need for the following four (4) vehicles is a result of growth throughout the City leading to increased operations:

The following two (2) vehicles being requested are replacements for existing vehicles:
Two (2) Ford F150 Lariat pick-up trucks requested by the Fire Department.
The vehicles recommended for replacement have outlived their useful life and it is no longer cost effective to maintain them. They are scheduled for replacement pursuant to ongoing efforts to reduce expenses, maximize useful life expectancy, and extend replacement cycles of fleet equipment while ensuring safe and reliable operation.
On September 17, 2024, the City Council approved the award of Bid No. 1773 for three (3) Ford F150 XLT pick-up trucks and Bid No. 1774 for two (2) Ford F150 Lariat pick-up trucks to the sole bidder, Proper Performance LLC, of New Wilmington, Pennsylvania.

CITY OF ONTARIO
Agenda Report
November 19, 2024
SECTION:
CONSENT CALENDAR
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the following three-year Design Services Agreements for on-call Architectural, Space Planning, and Engineering Design Services for a total compensation amount of $1,000,000 over three (3) years and extend the agreements for up to two (2) additional one-year periods:
a. HMC Architects, of Ontario, California, for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $200,000; b. Holt Architecture, of Palm Desert, California, for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $200,000;
c. IDS Group, Inc., of Irvine, California, for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $200,000; d. Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc., of Santa Monica, California, for a total contract amount not-to-exceed $200,000; and
e. Robert Borders & Associates, of Costa Mesa, California, for a total contract amount not-toexceed $200,000.
THE FOLLOWING COUNCIL GOALS ARE BEING ACHIEVED:
Operate in a Businesslike Manner
Invest in the City's Infrastructure (Water, Streets, Sewers, Parks, Storm Drains and Public Facilities)
Invest in the Growth and Evolution of the City's Economy FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed Design Services Agreements with HMC Architects, Holt Architecture, IDS Group, Inc., Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc., and Robert Borders & Associates are each in the amount of $66,667 per year for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $200,000 over a threeyear period. The cost of the recommended actions shall not exceed $333,333 per year for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $1,000,000 over a three-year period. The Fiscal Year 2024-25 Adopted Budget and 5-Year Capital Improvement Program includes current and planned appropriations for various City-wide projects in the Capital Projects Fund. 91 BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The City has needs for On-Call Architectural, Space Planning and Engineering Design Services for work that cannot be provided by City Staff. Staff is recommending contracts with a total of five qualified firms to assure a timely and cost-effective option is always available for each task order. Additionally, Staff recommends that all contracts be executed between the firms and the City, so that any City agencies can use these firms. This procedure reduces overhead charges and increases efficiency in completing critical projects, ultimately resulting in well-executed projects.
On August 29, 2024, the City solicited requests for proposals for Invitation No. 1832 On-Call Architectural, Space Planning and Engineering Design Services and responses from the following companies were evaluated:
COMPANY LOCATION
Architecture Plus La Canada, CA
BOA Architecture Long Beach, CA

PBK Rancho Cucamonga, CA
Robert Borders & Associates Costa Mesa, CA
Tighe Architecture Los Angeles, CA
TSK Los Angeles, CA
Westgroup Designs Irvine, CA
City Staff reviewed the requests for proposals utilizing a qualifications-based selection process.
HMC Architects, Holt Architecture, IDS Group, Inc., Hammel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc., and Robert Borders & Associates were deemed to be the most qualified firms. The recommendation to award Professional Services Agreements to these firms is based on their broad range of expertise as demonstrated by work performed for other municipal agencies and capability to perform highly complex work in a timely manner.

06 Approach and
Understanding
The Proposer shall provide a written narrative that
addresses the Scope of Work and demonstrates
the Proposer’s understanding of the City’s needs
and requirements. Provide a thorough description
demonstrating an understanding of the Scope of Work and its components. Describe how the Scope of Work will be
implemented and monitored. In addition, describe staffing levels and timeframe necessary for tasks described in the Scope of Work. In reviewing the Scope of Work Services and goals described in Exhibit “A,” the Proposer may identify additional necessary tasks and is invited to bring these to the City’s attention within the discussion of its proposed method to accomplish the work.
Design Approach
HMC’s design approach to each project is guided by our own set of design best practices that we personalize to our clients’ needs. We start by defining the project goals and collecting information to inform our strategies as we test different options. We study our results and make the most informed choice for our client and their site needs. These decisions drive our future processes and guide us as we revisit our projects to ensure success.
Collaborative Approach
Yields Successful Results
Exhibit C

HMC Architects City of Ontario, RFP No. 1832 / 27
Work Plan Approach
Below is an outline of a typical work
plan across the phases of our basic
architectural and engineering services.
Every project is unique, and we will work
with you to determine the appropriate
work plan and phases for each of yours
to come through your on-call during
kick-off.
Kick-Off
Once HMC is awarded a project from
your on-call contract, we will meet
with the City to “plan the plan.” We
will listen and gather feedback from
you to understand the goals for the
project, including unique challenges
and opportunities as seen by your
stakeholders, team, site staff, and
community. We will discuss and verify
key factors such as schedule, budget,
program, and scope, and work with your
team to build the proper work plan,
determine appropriate phases, and
include the required consultants.
Planning, Programming, and
Preliminary Design
This phase is not required for all
projects but is essential if your project
has an undefined program or scope.
HMC will work closely with City staff
and other stakeholders to develop a
space program based on the specific
project typology, conduct surveys
with stakeholders, user groups, and
community groups, and develop rough
order of magnitude costs for the project.
Together, we will ensure the final
program is appropriate for the project,
your budget, and the community it
serves.
Schematic Design
This phase expands upon the design
concepts prepared in the planning,
programming, and preliminary design
phase and becomes the foundation for
all subsequent work by the design team.
HMC will work closely with City staff and
other stakeholders to confirm the design
approach is contextual and meets the
goals and vision for the project, and
begin to identify architectural massing,
“look and feel,” building materials, and
systems. We will also develop estimates
of probable construction costs for the
project to ensure that what is designed
meets your budget.
Design Development
This phase begins the detailed
design and production phase of the
project and is built on the approved
documents developed in Schematic
Design. This phase is also the starting
point of drawing and coordination for
each engineering discipline, such as
structural, mechanical, electrical, and
plumbing.
Concurrently, we will begin to develop
the building floor plan, incorporating
input from consultants. We will
coordinate elements of the exterior
design as it relates to the interior of the
building. The final Design Development
package will be submitted to the cost
estimator for Design Development
Phase pricing. HMC will conduct a
comprehensive page turn meeting
with City staff and other stakeholders
using the 100% Design Development
deliverables to ensure that the indicated
systems align with owner’s project
requirements.

Center design.

HMC Architects City of Ontario, RFP No. 1832 / 28
Construction Documents /
Agency Review & Approval
This phase utilizes the approved
Design Development Package as
the basis for continuation. Our team
will prepare construction details,
specifications, and coordinate systems
and utilities between the architecture
and engineering teams. A final quality
assurance/quality control (QA/QC)
internal plan review will be performed
and addressed. Upon completion of
QA/QC, we will submit the construction
documents to the governing agencies
for the required plan check review
process. All corrective measures will be
addressed accordingly, and the plans
will be resubmitted to the appropriate
departments for final approval and
issuance of building permits. Upon
incorporation of all review team and
bidding agency comments, the plans will
be compiled into a single bid document
for issuance.
Bidding
As part of the project scope of services,
the team will provide necessary support
during the bidding and contract
negotiations phase to ensure all bidders
have accurate and consistent project
information and will assist the City
with establishing a fair, transparent
process that leads to the selection of a
capable contractor and a well-defined
construction agreement.
Construction Administration
HMC sees the construction phase of a
project as a continuation of an already
highly collaborative process. The
same HMC team that you have grown
to trust during the design phase will
continue into construction to avoid any
institutional memory loss and keep the
project moving forward.
We work collaboratively in all types
of delivery methods and value the
importance of a successful relationship
between the City, HMC, and the
contractor. Our goal is to ensure that you
receive the project envisioned for the
planned cost and the schedule promised
to your stakeholders.
During this phase, the project team and
assigned construction administrator
(CA) are involved throughout the
construction process. The CA will
regularly visit the site, attend job
meetings, and serve as your single point
of contact during construction.
The CA will also be a member of the
team during the development of the
drawings, participating in quality control
reviews to provide continuity and
consistency when construction begins.
As the project nears its completion, the
design team will meticulously review the
construction, including the startup and
testing of all systems for conformance
and quality, prepare punch lists, and
review required as-built documentation,
warranties, and operation and
maintenance manuals to ensure that all
contract requirements have been met.

3.7.5 Force Majeure Events. Neither City nor Consultant shall be considered in default of this Agreement for delays in performance caused by circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the non-performing Party.

Force Majeure Events shall not entitle Consultant to any additional compensation. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this section, the City may still terminate this Agreement in accordance with the termination provisions of this Agreement.
3.7.6 Request for Excusable Delay Credit. The Consultant shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days of the beginning of any excusable delay, notify the City in writing of the causes of delay (unless City grants in writing a further period of time to file such notice prior to the date of final payment under the Agreement). City will then ascertain the facts and the extent of the delay, and grant an extension of time for completing the Services when, in its sole judgment, the findings of fact justify such an extension. The City’s findings of fact thereon shall be final and conclusive on the Parties. Extensions of time shall apply only to that portion of the Services affected by the delay and shall not apply to other portions of the Services not so affected. The sole remedy of Consultant for extensions of time shall be an extension of the performance time at no cost to the City. If Additional Services are required as a result of an excusable delay, the Parties shall mutually agree thereto pursuant to the Additional Services provision of this Agreement.

DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT/QUALITY CONTROL
■ Quality Control is integral to our approach, and
there are multiple facets.
■ At the earliest stage of design, as soon as progress
allows, we begin to use 3D software. This allows
stakeholders as well as team members to clearly
understand, explore and approve the design for
further development. This clarity avoids unwelcome
surprises later.
■ As the design progresses, we utilize 3D software
(BIM) to integrate all elements: architectural, civil,
structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and
any other specialty consultant work. This provides
a clear basis to identify and resolve any conflicts
before they become problematic.
■ Although less interesting to review, but just as
important, our team develops a project specific
checklist from our Office Quality Control Guide. This
guide is built on our 35-years of things to consider
and “lessons learned”. We continue to update this
Guide with each project. In addition, our team will
use this guide to perform quality control reviews at
major project milestones. These reviews become
increasingly intensive as the project develops and
are overseen by the Senior Principal.
■ All of this allows effective and efficient
communication of the status of general progress,
any open considerations, as well as checks on
schedule and budget.
■ We will review with the City in detail all aspects
that are of Interest to the Owner, such as:
- Conduct visioning and problem seeking
sessions
- Review project location and physical
facilities
- Identify key program representatives for
each major program element
- Establish evaluation criteria
- Facilitate detailed work sessions with each
user group
- Develop conceptual program alternatives
- Consider the relationship of parts to the
whole
- Review project schedule and budget
■ This will allow the City to validate or clarify the
Program and provide a solid foundation for the
Design Team to prepare options and
considerations for the City in the Schematic
Design Phase.
PROGRAMMING
Exhibit C
173
RFP: City of Ontario On-Call | August 29, 2024 | PAGE 20
SCHEMATIC DESIGN
■ Once a clear and concise program has been
established, we will present to the City initial
concepts and design ideas, and together validate
the direction of the project upon which to finalize
the design. Schematic Design documents are
developed in this stage, such as:
- Program Diagrams
- Alternate Plans Showing Primary and Support
Spaces
- Phasing Concepts
- Future Expansion Options
- Sketches and Study Models, as required
- Conceptual 2D Site and Floor Plans
- Evaluation and Ranking of Concepts
■ This step in the project development process will
help the City establish a clear design concept.
Our design team can then start to develop the
concept in 3 dimensions through a variety of tools
in the Design Development stage.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS
BID/CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION
■ We integrate our Clients in the design process from
Day 1. Through a variety of digital media, Holt
creates the visual aids needed to help clients make
critical design decisions.
■ These visual aids are extremely important when
navigating the design’s approval process and
are integral to successful communication with the
various project Consultants.
■ Our use of BIM continues to facilitate the decision
making, detailing, production, and coordination of
the drawings so that the resulting documents are
clear, consistent, fully coordinated, and describe
the Project as accurately as possible.
■ Please see page 3 for more detail on our document
management and quality control.
■ When documents are ready to bid, the team will
assist the Owner in obtaining competitive Bids for
Construction.
■ During the construction process, the team will
provide the required construction observation
services to the client. This is to ensure the objectives of the Owner are met, which are expressed in the
Construction Documents.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT & PROJECT CONTROLS
IDS’ project manager will implement project controls including timely and regular client communications, established monitoring to control costs and schedule. Activities under the umbrella of project controls include:
Project Planning: IDS’ Project Manager will create project plans, schedules, WBS, and budget to establish a baseline to work with throughout the project. This includes a kick-off meeting to deeply understand all of our client’s needs.
Budgeting: IDS’ team will provide schedule-phased budgets, a transparent model that will be available to serve as a benchmark throughout the project and as an important cash flow tool for accurate invoicing and project accounting.
Risk Management: Our team will preemptively identify risks, monitor risk continuously, and develop a contingency plan to address and mitigate issues to help reduce impacts to budget and schedule.
Forecasting: IDS’ team will perform regular updates to the schedule to ensure faster responses and corrective actions if a project schedule moves off-track.
Project Administration: This process involves established processes and systems that can help team members communicate and collaborate. The goal is to track status, action items, capture meeting minutes and lessons learned, and manage workflows seamlessly so teams can focus on efficient execution of project tasks.
Constructability Reviews
To improve project efficiency and constructability, IDS’ team leverages Bluebeam Revu®, a PDF-based solution designed for the construction industry, for each phase of the preconstruction process. Revu enables IDS to electronically share project feedback by redlining PDFs with industry-standard markups and takeoffs. In addition, IDS utilizes an online session collaboration feature, which allows multiple discipline-lead reviewers to comment on the same PDF together in real-time, or individually. As a result of this concurrent review, where team members can see comments made by other members, a more comprehensive, easy to understand, and quality list of comments are generated resulting in improved deliverables.
