TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
THRU: Rob Houston, City Manager
FROM: Gary A. Sheatz, City Attorney
1. SUBJECT
Second Amendment to Attorney Services Agreement with Everett Dorey LLP to provide legal services, including representation and defense of the City, relative to the termination of the License Agreement with Mary’s Kitchen.
2. SUMMARY
The City currently has an agreement and first amendment with Everett Dorey LLP, to provide legal services for the representation and defense of the City relative to the termination of the License Agreement with Mary’sKitchen, for an amount not to exceed $130,000. This matter is being actively litigated in state and federal court and the amount of the original agreement will soon be expended.
The proposed Second Amendment will increase the agreement amount by $50,000 for a total amount not to exceed $180,000.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Authorize the appropriation of $50,000 from the General Fund unreserved fund balance to expenditure account number 100.0301.51600.00000, General Fund - Legal Services.
2. Approve the Second Amendment to Attorney Services Agreement with Everett Dorey LLP in the amount of $50,000; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this amendment is $50,000 and will be funded through General Fund (100).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
a. Expend fiscal resources responsibly.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
While the City Attorney’sOffice handles most litigation matters in-house, the City does contract with outside counsel when the complexity of a case, or a significant burden to staff time requires additional staffing expertise. The litigation in this case involves multiple allegations, including a request for class action status, in State and Federal Court. This type of litigation is document and time sensitive and involves technical issues and complex remedies, which are time consuming and would over-burden in-house legal staff.
As such, the City has retained the law firm of Everett Dorey, LLP, to provide legal services with City of Orange Printed on 9/8/2022Page 1 of 2

1. SUBJECT
Agreement with City of Santa Ana for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 Urban Areas Security Initiative grant.
2. SUMMARY
The Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Areas Security Initiative grant program is an agreement for transfer or purchase of equipment and services needed to manage and organize preparedness activities attributed to acts of terrorism and other threats.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the agreement with the City of Santa Ana for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 Urban Areas Security Initiative grant and authorize the City Manager to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
c: Enhance the emergency management system to provide public safety during times of disaster.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI) grant program provides funds to state and local agencies to prevent terrorism and other catastrophic events by focusing on a range of preparedness activities, including planning, organization, equipment purchases, training, and exercises. These activities can only be realized through information sharing and collaboration between local and federal agencies seeking to reduce the risks posed by terrorism. Such activities require careful planning and training geared towards evolving threats identified in the below five priority areas:
1) Enhancing cybersecurity
2) Enhancing protection of soft targets/crowded places
3) Enhancing information/intelligence sharing and cooperation with federal agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security

32 Item #: 3.5. 9/13/2022 File #: 22-0484
4) Combating domestic violent extremism
5) Addressing emergent threats
To support the UASI grant program, the Orange Police Department currently has 60 Terrorism Liaison Officers trained to report suspicious activity that may be encountered during the course of their normal duties. In addition, key personnel participate in regional training exercises to prepare and improve our ability to respond to complex threats. Regional training program objectives ensure training programs are delivered to accomplish core capabilities and heightened awareness levels that address the above priority levels among first responders.
The California Governor’sOffice of Emergency Services’performance period for the Anaheim/Santa Ana Urban Area is September 1, 2021, to May 31, 2024. However, the Sub-Recipient Performance Period for Fiscal Year 2020-2021 (FY21) UASI Grant Program is August 10, 2022, to March 31, 2024.
The agreement allows officers to participate in eligible training courses maintained by Homeland Security at no cost. Due to a reduced UASI grant allocation, reimbursement for overtime and backfill for training is no longer being offered. The UASI grant is a transfer agreement that provides unique equipment, training, planning, and exercise needs with no monetary value. Additionally, the transfer agreement is a required condition to maintain federally funded equipment acquired through the UASI grant program. Current equipment acquired through the UASI grant program is maintained at the Orange Police Department and includes automatic license plate readers, mobile radios, Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) equipment, and a CERT trailer.

1. SUBJECT
First Amendment to Agreement with Transportation Studies, Incorporated for On-Call Traffic Data Collection Services.
2. SUMMARY
The City entered into an on-call agreement with Transportation Studies, Incorporated in August 2020.
Based on the City’sprojected needs, additional work beyond the original contract value needs to be performed. This First Amendment will provide for the necessary contract capacity.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the Amendment to Agreement with Transportation Studies, Incorporated for On-Call Traffic Data Collection Services; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this amendment is $40,100 and will be funded in Biennial Traffic Signal Coordination (16304) through Measure M2 (263).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1. Provide for a safe community
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Traffic data, including vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian counts, serve as the basis for the many engineering decisions made by Public Works staff each day. In addition, accurate and up-to-date traffic data are critical for long-range planning, assessing infrastructure performance, establishing signal timing and speed limits, completing grant applications, and maintaining eligibility for OCTA M2 dollars, among other things.
In the summer of 2020 and subsequent to a competitive procurement, the City entered into an Agreement with Transportation Studies, Incorporated (TSI) to assist with traffic data collection needs.
The original Agreement was executed for an amount not-to-exceed $29,900 and did not specify a term. In the two years since, TSI has fulfilled their contractual obligations to the City by providing reliable and timely traffic data for various applications. Staff anticipates additional traffic data collection activities in the amount of $40,100 will be required over the course of the next three years.

1. SUBJECT
Agreement with Fortel Traffic, Inc. for As-needed Procurement, Installation, and Maintenance of Speed Radar Feedback Signs and Related Electrical Devices.
2. SUMMARY
Speed radar feedback signs are effective speed management and traffic calming tools. Signs manufactured by Fortel Traffic, Inc. have been previously approved for single source procurement.
This agreement will enable the City to continue responding to traffic calming needs.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the agreement with Fortel Traffic, Inc. in the amount not-to-exceed $100,000 for As-needed Procurement, Installation, and Maintenance of Speed Radar Feedback Signs and Related Electrical Devices; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement is $100,000 and will be funded in Minor Traffic Control Devices (16302) through General Fund (500).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1. Provide for a safe community
b. Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Speeding on city streets continues to be one of the concerns most commonly expressed by residents and motorists. Of the more flexible tools for addressing such concerns is the speed radar feedback (digital speed display) sign.
In April 2022, along with the purchase of six speed radar feedback signs, the City Council approved Fortel Traffic, Inc. (Fortel) as a single source vendor. Those signs have since been delivered to the City. Subsequently, and in accordance with City purchasing guidelines, a $29,900 purchase order has already been issued to Fortel this fiscal year (FY 2022-23) to cover the cost of (a) installing signs at various locations in the City and (b) performing corrective maintenance on some legacy signs that were in need of repair.
Based on the effectiveness of the signs at encouraging slower speeds and their acceptance by our community and motoring public, staff anticipates the need to purchase, install, and maintain City of Orange Printed on 9/8/2022Page 1 of 2

community and motoring public, staff anticipates the need to purchase, install, and maintain additional units, requiring that City Council approve an agreement with Fortel.
Based on projections, the proposed not-to-exceed amount of $100,000 is expected to cover potential needs through the end of the fiscal year. If additional contract capacity is required, a contract amendment may be executed. No budget appropriation is being requested at this time. The purchase order corresponding to this agreement will be funded incrementally and as needed, through one of the City’s budgeted “maintenance-type” capital improvement projects (Minor Traffic Control Devices.)

Fortel Traffic, Inc.
Re: Company qualifications, Brief biographies of Ke y Management and Operational Personnel
Fortel Traffic, Inc. (FTI) is a California (Anaheim ) based engineering, manufacturing and contracting company.
Established in 2001, we produce and provide our cus tomers with intelligent high visibility illuminated signs (fixed and mobile), Automatic License Plate Recognition Sy stems (fixed and mobile) and Software Systems. We specialize in ITS, VMS, CMS, DMS, Dual Message, Sta tic and ALPR systems. The multiple embedded featur es of our systems allow adaptation for many different typ es of applications. Speed Feedback, Monitoring, Me ssaging, Warnings, Wrong Way Detection, Travel Time, PTZ (st ationary, portable, and mobile) Cameras, Cloud base d, Cellular and Mobile App Software are among our stan dard products. We are a “Vision Zero” product part ner. All of our systems have the capability to prove their o wn effectiveness! We are “Making Roads and Neighbo rhoods Safe, Clean, and Green by monitoring speeds and types of vehicles!”
Unique Qualifications of the Company:
There are a number of reasons to choose Fortel Traf fic, Inc. as your prime contractor. As a manufactu rer it is important to note that FTI stands behind its produc t or the products(s) it represents. Building durab le, versatile, and effective traffic safety related equipment since it s inception has been its mission. FTI has a storie d history of establishing new and innovative traffic safety equi pment. In fact, FTI was instrumental in helping es tablish the specifications for speed feedback signage for the M anual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices also known as the MUTCD. Later innovations included various technolo gies associated with management and control of the signs through a centralized management system. Its produ cts (over 10,000 products sold in hundreds of local , state, federal, and international agencies) have always be en designed with the end user in mind, naturally le ading to equipment that has stood the test of time.
FTI is time tested having manufactured vehicle calm ing equipment for over two (2) decades in the marke t. The municipal agencies engineering department indicated that because the city has observed the product wor king for (15) years, the city would have to gamble to utiliz e a competitor’s product because of the uncertainty of whether a competitor’s product will work or not; and FTI is a company that has made traffic calming its specialt y. This laser focused strategy of manufacturing for over a decade vehicle calming products and listening to traffic engineers and other stakeholders, upgrading its capabilities in t he interest of the customer, has allowed FTI to sta y ahead of the competition in regard to features and benefits that the end user receives; and FTI has chosen to speci alize in the traffic calming area. FTI’s strategic intent to con tinually improve the product creates a different re lationship experience with agencies. FTI is more than just a competitor that for instance may have purchased ano ther company’s product with the sole motivation to sell the product as a low cost leader, and not necessari ly concentrate on spending capital on research and development for future features; and FTI being local services its product quickly having gone through factory certification providing personal and professional attention to servicing i ssues; and Scout™ is a progressive solution to accessing and m anaging the equipment. No other company has such a way of extracting the information, graphing, and doing the heavy lifting including effective reporting requirements.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
As Old Towne Orange continues to transform into a regional destination, night-time traffic activity has increased substantially. At the same time, the combined effect of (1) the circular intersection’s geometry and (2) impaired drivers failing to navigate a traffic circle contributes to the potential of vehicle incursions into Plaza Park. A number of provisional traffic safety improvements have been introduced over the years to address errant vehicles entering the park. These have included signs, pavement markings, and signal timing changes on the “spoke streets.” Despite these measures, incursions continue to occur and warrant additional actions to improve safety.
The Plaza Park Safety Enhancement Project consists of the following improvements:

· Installation of crash-rated bollards along pedestrian walkways. · Retrofitting existing Plaza Park perimeter bollards that face the street sections to be reinforced with concrete and steel rebar.
· Reconstruction of concrete walkway within reinforced bollard reconstruction areas with Old Towne color, finish, and pattern.
· Installation of electrical service and up lighting illuminating crash-rated bollards within walkways and cross lighting of trees for additional motorist visibility.
Public Works and Community Development staff have consulted with both the Old Towne Preservation Association (OTPA) and the City’sHistoric Preservation Consultant in developing the construction plan and selection of the bollard design and placement to ensure compatibility with the historic integrity of Plaza Park.
The total cost for Plaza Park Safety Enhancement Project is estimated at $310,000, including 20% for construction engineering and contingencies. Staff will return to the City Council and recommend any funding adjustments and award of contracts based on the outcome of the public bid.
The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under CEQA guidelines Section 15301 “Existing Facilities” Class 1 (c). The CEQA Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Recorder’sOffice upon Council’sapproval of the plans and specifications.
Construction is scheduled to begin in January 2023 and is expected to be completed by March 2023 barring any unforeseen delays from material procurement and weather.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
a: Provide staffing and resources to deliver services that ensure public safety.
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
a: Expend fiscal resources responsibly.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City Council has previously authorized a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement (CPA) using Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC) and Sourcewell as the standard for vehicle and equipment procurement, and this purchase is a continuation of that policy.
The replacement fire apparatus will be procured from Pierce Manufacturing and their local dealer, South Coast Fire Equipment through contract No. FS12-19 by HGAC for $1,037,766. The City has purchased fleet vehicles from South Coast Fire Equipment over the past six years. The City will receive a 4% discount ($35,639) on the apparatus net price using the HGAC contract and an upfront payment. The purchase price includes a performance bond for $2,239 to secure the upfront payment.
Upon placement of the order, the apparatus will take 25-26 months to build and equip, which is longer than previous orders of 16-18 months. The calculation for depreciation estimates the value of the replacement vehicle 2007 Seagrave Pumper, to be $6,500 to $8,500.
Like the fire engine, Braun and their local dealer Red Sky Emergency Vehicles were awarded contract number AM20BA16 for $444,772. The City has purchased fleet vehicles from Red Sky over the past five years. It will receive a repeat customer discount of ($28,753) and a prepayment discount of ($6,000) on the apparatus net price using the HGAC contract and an upfront payment for a total discount of ($34,753). The purchase price includes a performance bond for $2,000 to secure the upfront payment. Upon placement of the order, the apparatus will take 24-26 months to build and equip.
With the procurement of the new fire apparatus, Unit No. 1393, a 2003 Seagrave Reserve Fire Engine with 115,300 miles, will be coming out of service. Staff recommends donating the vehicle and the used fire equipment to the Queretaro Fire Department. Queretaro, Mexico, has been a sister city to the City of Orange for the past five decades. The fire service is a global community. Many fire departments help under-resourced fire departments in developing countries by providing firefighting gear and equipment that has reached the end of its service lifecycle in the U.S. but still has value for firefighters who may be using more senior gear and equipment. The calculation for depreciation estimates the value of the 2003 Seagrave Pumper to be $6,500 to $8,500.
National Auto Fleet was also awarded a Sourcewell contract number 120716-NAF for Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUVs, and Other Vehicles. Through this contract, National Auto Fleet Group pricing discounts range from 25.86% to 1% across 15 manufacturers, depending on the model. The average discount for this transaction is 10.87%, for a total savings of $102,164. This purchase includes three Chevrolet Bolts, one Chevrolet Tahoe, one Dodge Durango, nine Ford F-150s, three Ford Explorers, and five Ford Explorer Pursuits for $972,122.

This report includes the staff's recommendation to replace two twenty-plus-years old backhoes and trailers for the Public Works Department. Sourcewell awarded Caterpillar contract number 032119, and through this contract, the City will receive a 22% discount ($45,883) for the backhoes and a 10% discount ($4,382) for the trailers for a total cost of $435,591.
In addition to purchasing the safety vehicles, staff will use several lowest qualified vendors to equip the new engine, ambulance, and pursuit vehicles for communications and other safety equipment, not to exceed $553,471.
As is customary in public agencies, surplus vehicles will be auctioned after removing all equipment for approximately $10,000.

Upon placement of the order, the apparatus will take 25-26 months to build and equip, which is longer than previous orders of 16-18 months. The calculation for depreciation estimates the value of the replacement vehicle 2007 Seagrave Pumper, to be $6,500 to $8,500.
Like the fire engine, Braun and their local dealer Red Sky Emergency Vehicles were awarded contract number AM20BA16 for $444,772. The City has purchased fleet vehicles from Red Sky over the past five years. It will receive a repeat customer discount of ($28,753) and a prepayment discount of ($6,000) on the apparatus net price using the HGAC contract and an upfront payment for a total discount of ($34,753). The purchase price includes a performance bond for $2,000 to secure the upfront payment. Upon placement of the order, the apparatus will take 24-26 months to build and equip.
With the procurement of the new fire apparatus, Unit No. 1393, a 2003 Seagrave Reserve Fire Engine with 115,300 miles, will be coming out of service. Staff recommends donating the vehicle and the used fire equipment to the Queretaro Fire Department. Queretaro, Mexico, has been a sister city to the City of Orange for the past five decades. The fire service is a global community. Many fire departments help under-resourced fire departments in developing countries by providing firefighting gear and equipment that has reached the end of its service lifecycle in the U.S. but still has value for firefighters who may be using more senior gear and equipment. The calculation for depreciation estimates the value of the 2003 Seagrave Pumper to be $6,500 to $8,500.
National Auto Fleet was also awarded a Sourcewell contract number 120716-NAF for Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUVs, and Other Vehicles. Through this contract, National Auto Fleet Group pricing discounts range from 25.86% to 1% across 15 manufacturers, depending on the model. The average discount for this transaction is 10.87%, for a total savings of $102,164. This purchase includes three Chevrolet Bolts, one Chevrolet Tahoe, one Dodge Durango, nine Ford F-150s, three Ford Explorers, and five Ford Explorer Pursuits for $972,122.
