FROM: Christopher Cash, Public Works Director
1. SUBJECT
First Amendment to Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Community Development Block Grant Program Memorandum of Understanding and Second Amendment to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan to increase funding for the project.
2. SUMMARY
First Amendment to the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Community Development Block Grant Program and Second Amendment to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan to increase funding to the 2022-2023 Street Rehabilitation Project to cover increased construction costs.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Authorize the Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding (AGR-7407) to increase proposed project CDBG funding by $97,980.66, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $727,510.66, amend the Project Description to reflect the revised project scope, and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the amendment on behalf of the City.
2. Authorize the Second Amendment to the 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan to increase the allocation to the 2022-2023 Street Rehabilitation project by $97,980.66 to a total allocation of $727,510.66 and submit the Amendment to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
3. Authorize the transfer of $97,980.66 from expenditure account number 310.9645.57130.11070, Community Development Block Grant - Contingency to expenditure account number 310.9645.56582.20500, Community Development Block Grant - Sycamore and Palmyra Neighborhoods Street Rehabilitation.

Item #: 3.4. 2/14/2023 File #: 23-0055
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City of Orange Public Works Department opened construction bid proposals for the Sycamore and Palmyra Neighborhoods Street Rehabilitation project on December 15, 2022. The lowest bid, awarded to Sequel Contractors, Inc. at the January 10, 2023, City Council meeting, was significantly higher than the amount of CDBG funds initially requested. Labor and material costs have been trending significantly higher due to overall inflation and supply chain issues. The Public Works Department received an additional $97,980.66 from the CDBG Contingency Account to fund construction costs, and the Public Works Department will use Measure M2 gas tax funding (263) to cover the remaining amount needed to complete the project per the latest scope.
The proposed increase of $97,980.66 for the 2022-2023 Street Rehabilitation Project will assist the City with covering the higher than anticipated costs of construction, including contingency and construction engineering to complete the project
Citizen Participation Plan
The City’s Citizen Participation Plan provides a guide to ensure citizen and interested party participation in the development of the City’s Annual Action Plan. The Annual Action Plan outlines the City’s plans for the use of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding received in a specific year. Per the Citizen Participation Plan, an increase of over 20% of the original compensation to an approved project requires a substantial amendment to the Annual Action Plan in which the project was approved. The proposed increase of $97,980.66 to the 2022-2023 Street Rehabilitation Project does not meet the criteria for a substantial amendment to the 2022-2023 Action Plan as it is below 20% (or $125,906) of the original allocation.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Annual Pavement Maintenance at Various Locations, Fiscal Year 2022-2023 (FY23) is part of our Pavement Management Program FY23 (13120) activities and is designed to prolong the pavement life of City streets. This project will consist of Annual Street Maintenance and SB-1 Street Improvements.
For FY23, the City of Orange is receiving $2,790,000 of Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) funding for the rehabilitation of City streets. RMRA Funding Program is part of SB 1 City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 2/8/2023
powered by Legistar™ 68
Item #: 3.8. 2/14/2023 File #: 23-0066
Account (RMRA) funding for the rehabilitation of City streets. RMRA Funding Program is part of SB 1 - Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. The program addresses road maintenance and rehabilitation needs on local streets and highways. Staff has selected a number of arterial streets such as Hewes Street, Yorba Street, Crawford Canyon Road, Fairhaven Avenue, Orange Olive Road, Via Escola, Metropolitan Drive and The City Drive, and the limits of work are shown on the attached location maps.
The rehabilitation methods vary depending on the sustained damage, but in general, consist of asphalt concrete overlays with localized areas of pavement reconstruction. The rehabilitated pavement will have a longer service life and will provide a safe and smooth ride for the public.
Another part of the Pavement Management Program FY23 is the Slurry Seal at Various Locations Project, which will be bid separately.
This asphalt concrete overlay project will rehabilitate approximately 40 residential streets and 8 arterial streets throughout the City. The streets selected for maintenance are in accordance with our Pavement Management Plan, and generally fall into the “poor to fair” category, requiring work at this time to prevent total pavement failure, saving the costs of complete reconstruction in the future at a much higher cost.
The total cost is estimated at $4,380,000, including a 15% construction engineering and contingency.
Upon receipt of public bids, staff will return to the City Council and recommend any funding adjustments and award of contracts based on the outcome of the public bid. If the unit price for asphalt comes in below the estimate, additional streets may be added for rehabilitation.
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’s Office upon Council’s approval of the plans and specifications.
Construction is scheduled to begin in May 2023 and is expected to be completed by October 2023.
Specifications and cost estimates are available for review in the Public Works Department.

1. SUBJECT
Approval of plans and specifications for Taft Avenue & Lewis Street Water Quality Storm Drain Improvement Project, and authorization to advertise for bids.
2. SUMMARY
Plans and specifications for the Taft Avenue & Lewis Street Water Quality Storm Drain Improvement Project D-180 have been completed, and the project is ready to be advertised for bids. The total estimated construction cost including 10% contingencies and 5% for construction engineering is $530,000.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertising for Bid No. 22-23.29.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this project is $530,000 and will be funded in “Taft Avenue & Lewis Street Water Quality Storm Drain Improvement Project” (30215) through:
Sewer (220) $130,000
Reimbursable Capital Projects (550) 400,000
Total: $530,000
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.
Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
b: Provide facilities and services to meet customer expectations.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Taft Avenue & Lewis Street Water Quality Storm Drain Improvement Project is part of the Public Works Department’s successful efforts to acquire funding from the Environmental Cleanup Tier 1 Grant Program managed by the Orange County Transit Authority (OCTA). This program makes funds available to soliciting cities to help protect Orange County beaches and waterways from transportation-generated pollution and improve overall water quality.

Item #: 3.9. 2/14/2023 File #: 23-0083
The project collects drainage from a total of 354 acres composed of commercial, bus stop locations, light manufacturing, industrial manufacturing, multi-family homes, and single-family home sections of Orange. These areas combine to generate potentially significant amounts of leaves, trash, and other debris. The City has looked at various options to control trash and debris. Through the Orange Municipal Code, the City can enforce sections related to littering and nuisances and its weekly street sweeping program picks up a large amount of trash and debris; however, anything not collected by the street sweepers has the potential to enter the storm drain system and impact the downstream water bodies. The proposed Debris Separating Baffle Box (DSBB) is a Continuous Deflection Separator (CDS) unit and helps address this deficiency by capturing trash and debris and other gross pollutants via its trash screens, sediment chambers, and the use of an oil skimmer and hydrocarbon boom filters. The DSBB will be placed on Taft Avenue just east of the Taft Avenue/O’Donnell Way intersection. The proposed connector pipe screen (CPS) units also help solve this deficiency by capturing trash and debris and other pollutants within each catch basin. The CPS will be installed in seven (7) catch basins on Taft Avenue, and Lewis Street.
The total project cost is estimated at $530,000, including 5% for construction engineering and 10% for contingency. Upon receipt of public bids, staff will return to the City Council and recommend any funding adjustments and award of contracts.
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. The CEQA Notice of Exemption will be filed with the County Recorder’s Office upon Council’s approval of the plans and specifications.
Construction is scheduled to begin in May 2023 and is expected to be completed by October 2023.
Specifications and cost estimates are available for review in the Public Works Department.

1. SUBJECT
Award of Contract to Robertson Industries, Inc. for the rubberized tot lot surface installation at El Modena Park and the replacement of the rubberized tot surface at Serrano Park.
2. SUMMARY
As part of the El Modena Area Renovation Capital Improvement Project (30048), the existing engineered wood fiber surface at the El Modena Park tot lot will be replaced with new rubberized surfacing. In addition, installation of a 1.5-inch retop of the rubberized surface material will be installed at the tot lot at Serrano Park to complete the Rubberized Tot Lot Surface Replacement Capital Improvement Project (20440).
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve contract with Robertson Industries, Inc. in the amount of $190,547.50; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
2. Authorize the appropriation of $32,764.50 in unreserved Park Acquisition (Infill) (510) fund balance to expenditure account 510.7021.56020.20440 - CIP Building and Improvements.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this contract is $190,547.50 and will be funded through:
Rubberized Tot Lot Replacement (20440) Park Acquisition (Infill) (510) $ 80,514.50 El Modena Area Renovation (30048) El Modena Cell Tower (512) 110,033.00 $190,547.50
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.
Goal 3: Enhance and promote quality of life in the community a: Renovate, maintain, develop, and/or expand public use places and spaces.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Background and Discussion
City maintained tot lots (playgrounds) at City parks utilize poured-in-place rubberized surface, engineered wood fiber surfaces, or a combination of engineered wood fiber and rubberized surface.
City of Orange Page 1 of 3 Printed on 2/8/2023

Item #: 3.12. 2/14/2023 File #: 22-0696
engineered wood fiber surfaces, or a combination of engineered wood fiber and rubberized surface.
All City playgrounds have the required safety surface that meets the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM F 1292-99) Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surface Systems under and around playground equipment.
Tot lot rubberized surfaces are installed to ensure playground safety, allow for ADA accessibility and are an aesthetic asset to park facilities. These surfaces have a longevity of approximately 10 years with proper maintenance and care. As part of the phased El Modena Park Area Renovation Capital Improvement Project, the existing engineered wood fiber surfacing at the park’s playground will be replaced with a rubberized surface. The scope of work includes the demo and removal of cracked and displaced concrete, removal of existing wood fibers, preparation of sub-grade, raising the existing slide to provide proper clearance at slide exit, installation of new concrete, installation of the rubberized play surface, and filling gaps along the perimeter of the tot lot.
In addition, the rubberized surface at the tot lot at Serrano Park is past its useful life. The top surface is worn, weathered, and is requiring increasingly more work to maintain it as a safe playing surface.
The scope of work includes the installation of a 1.5-inch retop of the rubberized surface material to address the cracks and wide gaps between the play surface and surrounding concrete walkways. A complete renovation of the surface is not necessary as the base and sub-surface still meet City and Industry Safety Standards.
Staff is recommending Council approve a contract with Robertson Industries, Inc. (Robertson), in the amount of $190,547.50, to perform the work on both playgrounds. Robertson, a Playcore Company, is covered under national cooperative contract #R220203 between Playcraft, a Playcore Company, and Region 4 Education Service Center and OMNIA Partners. The pricing structure for all services under this proposed contract will be per the OMNIA awarded rates. As such, competitive bidding for these services has already taken place and the City may utilize this contract for covered services without additional competitive bidding. The City has had a positive experience with Robertson, as they have provided these services in the past.
The cost for new rubberized surfacing at El Modena is $100,030 and the cost of the Serrano Park resurfacing is $73,195. The total expenditure for the work outlined is $173,225. The contract also includes a 10% contingency of $17,322.50 to be divided between the projects. Therefore, the amount of this contract is $190,547.50 and will be funded as follows:
Rubberized Tot Lot Replacement (20440) Park Acquisition (Infill) (510) $ 80,514.50 El Modena Area Renovation (30048) El Modena Cell Tower (512) 110,033.00 $190,547.50
The City Council appropriated $47,750 for the Rubberized Tot Lot Surface Replacement project (20440) as part of the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 budget adoption. Since then, the cost of petroleum products and labor has increased. Additionally, Robertson obtained a new purchasing contract with new rates in early 2022. Therefore, the estimated expense for the project has increased by $32,764.50. Staff is also recommending that the City Council appropriate this balance to the 20440 project expenditure account in order to facilitate the resurfacing.

engineered wood fiber surfaces, or a combination of engineered wood fiber and rubberized surface.
All City playgrounds have the required safety surface that meets the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM F 1292-99) Specification for Impact Attenuation of Surface Systems under and around playground equipment.
Tot lot rubberized surfaces are installed to ensure playground safety, allow for ADA accessibility and are an aesthetic asset to park facilities. These surfaces have a longevity of approximately 10 years with proper maintenance and care. As part of the phased El Modena Park Area Renovation Capital Improvement Project, the existing engineered wood fiber surfacing at the park’s playground will be replaced with a rubberized surface. The scope of work includes the demo and removal of cracked and displaced concrete, removal of existing wood fibers, preparation of sub-grade, raising the existing slide to provide proper clearance at slide exit, installation of new concrete, installation of the rubberized play surface, and filling gaps along the perimeter of the tot lot.
In addition, the rubberized surface at the tot lot at Serrano Park is past its useful life. The top surface is worn, weathered, and is requiring increasingly more work to maintain it as a safe playing surface.
The scope of work includes the installation of a 1.5-inch retop of the rubberized surface material to address the cracks and wide gaps between the play surface and surrounding concrete walkways. A complete renovation of the surface is not necessary as the base and sub-surface still meet City and Industry Safety Standards.
Staff is recommending Council approve a contract with Robertson Industries, Inc. (Robertson), in the amount of $190,547.50, to perform the work on both playgrounds. Robertson, a Playcore Company, is covered under national cooperative contract #R220203 between Playcraft, a Playcore Company, and Region 4 Education Service Center and OMNIA Partners. The pricing structure for all services under this proposed contract will be per the OMNIA awarded rates. As such, competitive bidding for these services has already taken place and the City may utilize this contract for covered services without additional competitive bidding. The City has had a positive experience with Robertson, as they have provided these services in the past.
The cost for new rubberized surfacing at El Modena is $100,030 and the cost of the Serrano Park resurfacing is $73,195. The total expenditure for the work outlined is $173,225. The contract also includes a 10% contingency of $17,322.50 to be divided between the projects. Therefore, the amount of this contract is $190,547.50 and will be funded as follows:
Rubberized Tot Lot Replacement (20440) Park Acquisition (Infill) (510) $ 80,514.50 El Modena Area Renovation (30048) El Modena Cell Tower (512) 110,033.00 $190,547.50
The City Council appropriated $47,750 for the Rubberized Tot Lot Surface Replacement project (20440) as part of the Fiscal Year 2020-2021 budget adoption. Since then, the cost of petroleum products and labor has increased. Additionally, Robertson obtained a new purchasing contract with new rates in early 2022. Therefore, the estimated expense for the project has increased by $32,764.50. Staff is also recommending that the City Council appropriate this balance to the 20440 project expenditure account in order to facilitate the resurfacing.

d. Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City and its officers, employees, contractors and agents, with counsel reasonably acceptable to City, from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, cost, expense, and/or “increased costs” (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court and litigation costs, and fees of expert witnesses) which result or arise in any way from the noncompliance by Contractor of any applicable local, state and/or federal law, including, without limitation, any applicable federal and/or state labor laws (including, without limitation, the requirement to pay state prevailing wages).

Insurance
a. Contractor shall procure and maintain for the duration of this Contract insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Work hereunder and the results of that Work by Contractor, its agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors.

occurrence limit.
(2) Automobile Liability $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
(3) Workers’ Compensation as required by the State of California. (4) Employer’s Liability $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease. c. Any insurance proceeds in excess of or broader than the minimum required coverage and/or minimum required limits which are applicable to a given loss shall be available to City. No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this Contract are sufficient to cover the obligations of Contractor under this Contract. d. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At the option of City, either: the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to City, its officers, officials, agents and employees; or Contractor shall provide a financial guarantee satisfactory to City guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. e. Each policy of general liability and automotive liability insurance shall contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
117
8 (1) City, its officers, officials, agents, and employees are declared to be additional insureds under the terms of the policy, with respect to liability arising out of automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by or on behalf of Contractor (any auto), and with respect to liability arising out of Work or operations performed by or on behalf of Contractor, including materials, parts or equipment furnished in connection with such Work or operations. A policy endorsement to that effect shall be provided to City along with the certificate of insurance. In lieu of an endorsement, City will accept a copy of the policy(ies) which evidences that City is an additional insured as a contracting party. The minimum coverage required by Subsection 12.b, above, shall apply to City as an additional insured.
(2) For any claims related to this Contract, Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance with respect to City, its officers, officials, agents and employees. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its officers, officials, agents and employees shall be excess of Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. (3) Coverage shall not be canceled, except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been provided to City.
f. Contractor shall furnish City with original certificates of insurance and endorsements effecting coverage required by this Article 12. The endorsements shall be on forms acceptable to City. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before the Work commences. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications at any time.
g. All insurance procured and maintained by Contractor shall be issued by insurers admitted to conduct the pertinent line of insurance business in California and having a rating of Grade A or better and Class VII or better by the latest edition of Best Key Rating Guide. h. Contractor shall immediately notify City if any required insurance lapses or is otherwise modified and cease performance of this Contract unless otherwise directed by City. In such a case, City may procure insurance or self-insure the risk and charge Contractor for such costs and any and all damages resulting therefrom by way of set-off from any sums owed Contractor. i. Contractor agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide insurance, Contractor shall look solely to its insurance for recovery. Contractor hereby grants to City, on behalf of any insurer providing insurance to either Contractor or City with respect to the services of Contractor herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer may acquire against City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.
The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of City for all Work performed by Contractor, its employees, agents and subcontractors. Contractor shall obtain any other endorsement that may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation. j. Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all of the requirements stated herein.

SECTIONS 1725.5, 1771, 1771.1, 1771.4, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813 and 1815 Section 1725.5. Registration of contractors; mandatory registration; qualifications and application; fees; exempt contractors
A contractor shall be registered pursuant to this section to be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any public work contract that is subject to the requirements of this chapter. For the purposes of this section, “contractor” includes a subcontractor as defined by Section 1722.1. (a) To qualify for registration under this section, a contractor shall do all of the following:
(1)(A) Register with the Department of Industrial Relations in the manner prescribed by the department and pay an initial nonrefundable application fee of four hundred dollars ($400) to qualify for registration under this section and an annual renewal fee on or before July 1 of each year thereafter. The annual renewal fee shall be in a uniform amount set by the Director of Industrial Relations, and the initial registration and renewal fees may be adjusted no more than annually by the director to support the costs specified in Section 1771.3. (B) Beginning June 1, 2019, a contractor may register or renew according to this subdivision in annual increments up to three years from the date of registration. Contractors who wish to do so will be required to prepay the applicable nonrefundable application or renewal fees to qualify for the number of years for which they wish to preregister.
(2) Provide evidence, disclosures, or releases as are necessary to establish all of the following:
(A) Workers' compensation coverage that meets the requirements of Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) and includes sufficient coverage for any worker whom the contractor employs to perform work that is subject to prevailing wage requirements other than a contractor who is separately registered under this section.
Coverage may be evidenced by a current and valid certificate of workers' compensation insurance or certification of self-insurance required under Section 7125 of the Business and Professions Code. (B) If applicable, the contractor is licensed in accordance with Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of the Business and Professions Code.
(C) The contractor does not have any delinquent liability to an employee or the state for any assessment of back wages or related damages, interest, fines, or penalties pursuant to any final judgment, order, or determination by a court or any federal, state, or local administrative agency, including a confirmed arbitration award. However, for purposes of this paragraph, the contractor shall not be disqualified for any judgment, order, or determination that is under appeal, provided that the contractor has secured the payment of any amount eventually found due through a bond or other appropriate means. (D) The contractor is not currently debarred under Section 1777.1 or under any other federal or state law providing for the debarment of contractors from public works. (E) The contractor has not bid on a public works contract, been listed in a bid proposal, or engaged in the performance of a contract for public works without being lawfully registered in accordance with this section, within the preceding 12 months or since the effective date of the requirements set forth in subdivision (e), whichever is earlier. If a contractor is found to be in violation of the requirements of this paragraph, the period of disqualification shall be waived if both of the following are true:
123
Attachment No. 1
(i) The contractor has not previously been found to be in violation of the requirements of this paragraph within the preceding 12 months.
(ii) The contractor pays an additional nonrefundable penalty registration fee of two thousand dollars ($2,000). (b) Fees received pursuant to this section shall be deposited in the State Public Works Enforcement Fund established by Section 1771.3 and shall be used only for the purposes specified in that section. (c) A contractor who fails to pay the renewal fee required under paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) on or before the expiration of any prior period of registration shall be prohibited from bidding on or engaging in the performance of any contract for public work until once again registered pursuant to this section. If the failure to pay the renewal fee was inadvertent, the contractor may renew its registration retroactively by paying an additional nonrefundable penalty renewal fee equal to the amount of the renewal fee within 90 days of the due date of the renewal fee.
(d) If, after a body awarding a contract accepts the contractor's bid or awards the contract, the work covered by the bid or contract is determined to be a public work to which Section 1771 applies, either as the result of a determination by the director pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a court decision, the requirements of this section shall not apply, subject to the following requirements:
(1) The body that awarded the contract failed, in the bid specification or in the contract documents, to identify as a public work that portion of the work that the determination or decision subsequently classifies as a public work.
(2) Within 20 days following service of notice on the awarding body of a determination by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a decision by a court that the contract was for public work as defined in this chapter, the contractor and any subcontractors are registered under this section or are replaced by a contractor or subcontractors who are registered under this section. (3) The requirements of this section shall apply prospectively only to any subsequent bid, bid proposal, contract, or work performed after the awarding body is served with notice of the determination or decision referred to in paragraph (2).
(e) The requirements of this section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, to any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, executed on or after April 1, 2015, and to any work performed under a contract for public work on or after January 1, 2018, regardless of when the contract for public work was executed.
(f) This section does not apply to work performed on a public works project of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or less when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work or to work performed on a public works project of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) or less when the project is for maintenance work.
Section 1771. Payment of general prevailing rate
Except for public works projects of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or less, not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for work of a similar character in the locality in which the public work is performed, and not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for holiday and overtime work fixed as provided in this chapter, shall be paid to all workers employed on public works.
This section is applicable only to work performed under contract, and is not applicable to work carried out by a public agency with its own forces. This section is applicable to contracts let for maintenance work. 124
Attachment No. 1
Section 1771.1. Registration as a contractor or subcontractor required prior to bid submission; exceptions; violations; penalties
(a) A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. It is not a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section 10164 or 20103.5 of the Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.
(b) Notice of the requirement described in subdivision (a) shall be included in all bid invitations and public works contracts, and a bid shall not be accepted nor any contract or subcontract entered into without proof of the contractor or subcontractor's current registration to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. (c) An inadvertent error in listing a subcontractor who is not registered pursuant to Section 1725.5 in a bid proposal shall not be grounds for filing a bid protest or grounds for considering the bid nonresponsive, provided that any of the following apply:
(1) The subcontractor is registered prior to the bid opening. (2) Within 24 hours after the bid opening, the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (3) The subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.
(d) Failure by a subcontractor to be registered to perform public work as required by subdivision (a) shall be grounds under Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code for the contractor, with the consent of the awarding authority, to substitute a subcontractor who is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 in place of the unregistered subcontractor.
(e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.
(f) A contract entered into with any contractor or subcontractor in violation of subdivision (a) shall be subject to cancellation, provided that a contract for public work shall not be unlawful, void, or voidable solely due to the failure of the awarding body, contractor, or any subcontractor to comply with the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section.
(g) If the Labor Commissioner or his or her designee determines that a contractor or subcontractor engaged in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in accordance with this section, the contractor or subcontractor shall forfeit, as a civil penalty to the state, one hundred dollars ($100) for each day of work performed in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of eight thousand dollars ($8,000) in addition to any penalty registration fee assessed pursuant to clause (ii) of subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (h)(1) In addition to, or in lieu of, any other penalty or sanction authorized pursuant to this chapter, a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor who is found to have entered into a subcontract with an unregistered lower tier subcontractor to perform any public work in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section shall be subject to forfeiture, as a civil penalty to the state, of one hundred dollars ($100) 125
Attachment No. 1
for each day the unregistered lower tier subcontractor performs work in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (2) The Labor Commissioner shall use the same standards specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1775 when determining the severity of the violation and what penalty to assess, and may waive the penalty for a first time violation that was unintentional and did not hinder the Labor Commissioner's ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the requirements of this chapter. (3) A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor shall not be liable for penalties assessed pursuant to paragraph (1) if the lower tier subcontractor's performance is in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 due to the revocation of a previously approved registration. (4) A subcontractor shall not be liable for any penalties assessed against a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor pursuant to paragraph (1). A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor may not require a lower tiered subcontractor to indemnify or otherwise be liable for any penalties pursuant to paragraph (1).
(i) The Labor Commissioner or his or her designee shall issue a civil wage and penalty assessment, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1741, upon determination of penalties pursuant to subdivision (g) and subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (h). Review of a civil wage and penalty assessment issued under this subdivision may be requested in accordance with the provisions of Section 1742. The regulations of the Director of Industrial Relations, which govern proceedings for review of civil wage and penalty assessments and the withholding of contract payments under Article 1 (commencing with Section 1720) and Article 2 (commencing with Section 1770), shall apply. (j)(1) Where a contractor or subcontractor engages in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section, the Labor Commissioner shall issue and serve a stop order prohibiting the use of the unregistered contractor or the unregistered subcontractor on all public works until the unregistered contractor or unregistered subcontractor is registered. The stop order shall not apply to work by registered contractors or subcontractors on the public work.
(2) A stop order may be personally served upon the contractor or subcontractor by either of the following methods:
(A) Manual delivery of the order to the contractor or subcontractor personally. (B) Leaving signed copies of the order with the person who is apparently in charge at the site of the public work and by thereafter mailing copies of the order by first class mail, postage prepaid to the contractor or subcontractor at one of the following:
(i) The address of the contractor or subcontractor on file with either the Secretary of State or the Contractors' State License Board.
(ii) If the contractor or subcontractor has no address on file with the Secretary of State or the Contractors' State License Board, the address of the site of the public work. (3) The stop order shall be effective immediately upon service and shall be subject to appeal by the party contracting with the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, by the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, or both. The appeal, hearing, and any further review of the hearing decision shall be governed by the procedures, time limits, and other requirements specified in subdivision (a) of Section 238.1. 126
Attachment No. 1
(4) Any employee of an unregistered contractor or subcontractor who is affected by a work stoppage ordered by the commissioner pursuant to this subdivision shall be paid at his or her regular hourly prevailing wage rate by that employer for any hours the employee would have worked but for the work stoppage, not to exceed 10 days.
(k) Failure of a contractor or subcontractor, owner, director, officer, or managing agent of the contractor or subcontractor to observe a stop order issued and served upon him or her pursuant to subdivision (j) is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in county jail not exceeding 60 days or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or both.
(l) This section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, and any contract for public work entered into on or after April 1, 2015. This section shall also apply to the performance of any public work, as defined in this chapter, on or after January 1, 2018, regardless of when the contract for public work was entered.
(m) Penalties received pursuant to this section shall be deposited in the State Public Works Enforcement Fund established by Section 1771.3 and shall be used only for the purposes specified in that section. (n) This section shall not apply to work performed on a public works project of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or less when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work or to work performed on a public works project of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) or less when the project is for maintenance work.
Section 1771.4. Additional requirements when bidding and awarding public works contracts (a) All of the following are applicable to all public works projects that are otherwise subject to the requirements of this chapter:
(1) The call for bids and contract documents shall specify that the project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. (2) The awarding body shall post or require the prime contractor to post job site notices, as prescribed by regulation.
(3) Each contractor and subcontractor shall furnish the records specified in Section 1776 directly to the Labor Commissioner, in the following manner:
(A) At least monthly or more frequently if specified in the contract with the awarding body. (B) In a format prescribed by the Labor Commissioner.
(4) If the contractor or subcontractor is not registered pursuant to Section 1725.5 and is performing work on a project for which registration is not required because of subdivision (f) of Section 1725.5, the unregistered contractor or subcontractor is not required to furnish the records specified in Section 1776 directly to the Labor Commissioner but shall retain the records specified in Section 1776for at least three years after completion of the work.
(5) The department shall undertake those activities it deems necessary to monitor and enforce compliance with prevailing wage requirements.
127
Attachment No. 1
(b) The Labor Commissioner may exempt a public works project from compliance with all or part of the requirements of subdivision (a) if either of the following occurs:
(1) The awarding body has enforced an approved labor compliance program, as defined in Section 1771.5, on all public works projects under its authority, except those deemed exempt pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 1771.5, continuously since December 31, 2011.
(2) The awarding body has entered into a collective bargaining agreement that binds all contractors performing work on the project and that includes a mechanism for resolving disputes about the payment of wages.

(d) The requirements of paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) shall apply to all contracts for public work, whether new or ongoing, on or after January 1, 2016.
Section 1775. Penalties for violations
(a)(1) The contractor and any subcontractor under the contractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit not more than two hundred dollars ($200) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates as determined by the director for the work or craft in which the worker is employed for any public work done under the contract by the contractor or, except as provided in subdivision (b), by any subcontractor under the contractor.
(2)(A) The amount of the penalty shall be determined by the Labor Commissioner based on consideration of both of the following:
(i) Whether the failure of the contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rate of per diem wages was a good faith mistake and, if so, the error was promptly and voluntarily corrected when brought to the attention of the contractor or subcontractor.
(ii) Whether the contractor or subcontractor has a prior record of failing to meet its prevailing wage obligations.
(B)(i) The penalty may not be less than forty dollars ($40) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, unless the failure of the contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rate of per diem wages was a good faith mistake and, if so, the error was promptly and voluntarily corrected when brought to the attention of the contractor or subcontractor. (ii) The penalty may not be less than eighty dollars ($80) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, if the contractor or subcontractor has been assessed penalties within the previous three years for failing to meet its prevailing wage obligations on a separate contract, unless those penalties were subsequently withdrawn or overturned. (iii) The penalty may not be less than one hundred twenty dollars ($120) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, if the Labor Commissioner determines that the violation was willful, as defined in subdivision (c) of Section 1777.1. (C) If the amount due under this section is collected from the contractor or subcontractor, any outstanding wage claim under Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 1720) of Part 7 of Division 2 against that contractor 128
Attachment No. 1
or subcontractor shall be satisfied before applying that amount to the penalty imposed on that contractor or subcontractor pursuant to this section.
(D) The determination of the Labor Commissioner as to the amount of the penalty shall be reviewable only for abuse of discretion.
(E) The difference between the prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the contractor or subcontractor, and the body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation that this section will be complied with. (b) If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime contractor of the project is not liable for any penalties under subdivision (a) unless the prime contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime contractor fails to comply with all of the following requirements:
(1) The contract executed between the contractor and the subcontractor for the performance of work on the public works project shall include a copy of the provisions of this section and Sections 1771, 1776, 1777.5, 1813, and 1815.
(2) The contractor shall monitor the payment of the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor to the employees, by periodic review of the certified payroll records of the subcontractor. (3) Upon becoming aware of the failure of the subcontractor to pay his or her workers the specified prevailing rate of wages, the contractor shall diligently take corrective action to halt or rectify the failure, including, but not limited to, retaining sufficient funds due the subcontractor for work performed on the public works project. (4) Prior to making final payment to the subcontractor for work performed on the public works project, the contractor shall obtain an affidavit signed under penalty of perjury from the subcontractor that the subcontractor has paid the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages to his or her employees on the public works project and any amounts due pursuant to Section 1813. (c) The Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall notify the contractor on a public works project within 15 days of the receipt by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement of a complaint of the failure of a subcontractor on that public works project to pay workers the general prevailing rate of per diem wages.

Each payroll record shall contain or be verified by a written declaration that it is made under penalty of perjury, stating both of the following:
(1) The information contained in the payroll record is true and correct. (2) The employer has complied with the requirements of Sections 1771, 1811, and 1815 for any work performed by his or her employees on the public works project. 129
Attachment No. 1

(1) A certified copy of an employee's payroll record shall be made available for inspection or furnished to the employee or his or her authorized representative on request. (2) A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available for inspection or furnished upon request to a representative of the body awarding the contract and the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement of the Department of Industrial Relations. (3) A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available upon request by the public for inspection or for copies thereof. However, a request by the public shall be made through either the body awarding the contract or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. If the requested payroll records have not been provided pursuant to paragraph (2), the requesting party shall, prior to being provided the records, reimburse the costs of preparation by the contractor, subcontractors, and the entity through which the request was made. The public may not be given access to the records at the principal office of the contractor.
(c) Unless required to be furnished directly to the Labor Commissioner in accordance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 1771.4, the certified payroll records shall be on forms provided by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement or shall contain the same information as the forms provided by the division.
The payroll records may consist of printouts of payroll data that are maintained as computer records, if the printouts contain the same information as the forms provided by the division and the printouts are verified in the manner specified in subdivision (a).
(d) A contractor or subcontractor shall file a certified copy of the records enumerated in subdivision (a) with the entity that requested the records within 10 days after receipt of a written request. (e) Except as provided in subdivision (f), any copy of records made available for inspection as copies and furnished upon request to the public or any public agency by the awarding body or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated to prevent disclosure of an individual's name, address, and social security number. The name and address of the contractor awarded the contract or the subcontractor performing the contract shall not be marked or obliterated. Any copy of records made available for inspection by, or furnished to, a multiemployer Taft-Hartley trust fund (29 U.S.C. Sec. 186(c)(5)) that requests the records for the purposes of allocating contributions to participants shall be marked or obliterated only to prevent disclosure of an individual's full social security number, but shall provide the last four digits of the social security number. Any copy of records made available for inspection by, or furnished to, a joint labor-management committee established pursuant to the federal Labor Management Cooperation Act of 1978 (29 U.S.C. Sec. 175a) shall be marked or obliterated only to prevent disclosure of an individual's social security number.
(f)(1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, agencies that are included in the Joint Enforcement Strike Force on the Underground Economy established pursuant to Section 329 of the Unemployment Insurance Code and other law enforcement agencies investigating violations of law shall, upon request, be provided nonredacted copies of certified payroll records. Any copies of records or certified payroll made available for inspection and furnished upon request to the public by an agency included in the Joint Enforcement Strike Force on the Underground Economy or to a law enforcement agency investigating a violation of law shall be marked or redacted to prevent disclosure of an individual's name, address, and social security number. 130
Attachment No. 1
(2) An employer shall not be liable for damages in a civil action for any reasonable act or omission taken in good faith in compliance with this subdivision.
(g) The contractor shall inform the body awarding the contract of the location of the records enumerated under subdivision (a), including the street address, city, and county, and shall, within five working days, provide a notice of a change of location and address.
(h) The contractor or subcontractor has 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of a written notice requesting the records enumerated in subdivision (a). In the event that the contractor or subcontractor fails to comply within the 10-day period, he or she shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit one hundred dollars ($100) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. Upon the request of the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. A contractor is not subject to a penalty assessment pursuant to this section due to the failure of a subcontractor to comply with this section.
(i) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section.
(j) The director shall adopt rules consistent with the California Public Records Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 6250) of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code) and the Information Practices Act of 1977 (Title 1.8 (commencing with Section 1798) of Part 4 of Division 3 of the Civil Code) governing the release of these records, including the establishment of reasonable fees to be charged for reproducing copies of records required by this section.
Section 1777.5. Employment of registered apprentices; wages; standards; number; apprenticeable craft or trade; exemptions; contributions; compliance program (a)(1) This chapter does not prevent the employment upon public works of properly registered apprentices who are active participants in an approved apprenticeship program. (2) For purposes of this chapter, “apprenticeship program” means a program under the jurisdiction of the California Apprenticeship Council established pursuant to Section 3070. (b)(1) Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.
(2) Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, when a contractor requests the dispatch of an apprentice pursuant to this section to perform work on a public works project and requires the apprentice to fill out an application or undergo testing, training, an examination, or other preemployment process as a condition of employment, the apprentice shall be paid for the time spent on the required preemployment activity, including travel time to and from the required activity, if any, at the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered. Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, a contractor is not required to compensate an apprentice for the time spent on preemployment activities if the apprentice is required to take a preemployment drug or alcohol test and he or she fails to pass that test.
(c) Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written 131
Attachment No. 1
apprentice agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. (d) If the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. “Apprenticeable craft or trade,” as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, “contractor” includes any subcontractor under a contractor who performs any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).
(e) Before commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work.
The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this information shall also be submitted to the awarding body, if requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months. (f) The apprenticeship program supplying apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities. (g) The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trade on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates if the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards. However, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.
(h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The contractor shall employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. When an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Administrator 132
Attachment No. 1
of Apprenticeship, upon application of an apprenticeship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. (i) A contractor covered by this section who has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or who has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship standards, but in no event less than the 1-to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).
(j) Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Administrator of Apprenticeship may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant to a participating contractor or contractor association a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent. (2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis. (4) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
(l) If an exemption is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
(m)(1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council the same amount that the director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor may take as a credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the contractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public works project. The contractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. (2)(A) At the conclusion of the 2002-03 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the California Apprenticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the council under this subdivision, less the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for administering this subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticeship programs for the purpose of training apprentices. The grant funds shall be distributed as follows:
133
Attachment No. 1
(i) If there is an approved multiemployer apprenticeship program serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, a grant to that program shall be made.
(ii) If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or trade and county for which the training contributions were made to the council, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices from that county registered in each program. (iii) All training contributions not distributed under clauses (i) and (ii) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for the administration and enforcement of apprenticeship and preapprenticeship standards and requirements under this code. (B) An apprenticeship program shall only be eligible to receive grant funds pursuant to this subdivision if the apprenticeship program agrees, prior to the receipt of any grant funds, to keep adequate records that document the expenditure of grant funds and to make all records available to the Department of Industrial Relations so that the Department of Industrial Relations is able to verify that grant funds were used solely for training apprentices. For purposes of this subparagraph, adequate records include, but are not limited to, invoices, receipts, and canceled checks that account for the expenditure of grant funds. This subparagraph shall not be deemed to require an apprenticeship program to provide the Department of Industrial Relations with more documentation than is necessary to verify the appropriate expenditure of grant funds made pursuant to this subdivision.
(C) The Department of Industrial Relations shall verify that grants made pursuant to this subdivision are used solely to fund training apprentices. If an apprenticeship program is unable to demonstrate how grant funds are expended or if an apprenticeship program is found to be using grant funds for purposes other than training apprentices, then the apprenticeship program shall not be eligible to receive any future grant pursuant to this subdivision and the Department of Industrial Relations may initiate the process to rescind the registration of the apprenticeship program.
(3) All training contributions received pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, all moneys in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund shall be used for the purpose of carrying out this subdivision and to pay the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations. (n) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section. The stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for all apprenticeable occupations with the prime contractor.
(o) This section does not apply to contracts of general contractors or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor when the contracts of general contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). (p) An awarding body that implements an approved labor compliance program in accordance with subdivision (b) of Section 1771.5 may, with the approval of the director, assist in the enforcement of this section under the terms and conditions prescribed by the director.
Section 1813. Forfeiture for violations; contract stipulation; report of violations The contractor or subcontractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit twenty- five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in the execution of 134
Attachment No. 1
the contract by the respective contractor or subcontractor for each calendar day during which the worker is required or permitted to work more than 8 hours in any one calendar day and 40 hours in any one calendar week in violation of the provisions of this article. In awarding any contract for public work, the awarding body shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation to this effect. The awarding body shall take cognizance of all violations of this article committed in the course of the execution of the contract, and shall report them to the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement.
Section 1815. Overtime
Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1810 to 1814, inclusive, of this code, and notwithstanding any stipulation inserted in any contract pursuant to the requirements of said sections, work performed by employees of contractors in excess of 8 hours per day, and 40 hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon public work upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of 8 hours per day at not less than 1 ½ times the basic rate of pay.

Upon receipt of a claim, a public entity and a contractor may, by mutual agreement, extend the time period provided in this subdivision.
(B) The claimant shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. (C) If the public entity needs approval from its governing body to provide the claimant a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the governing body does not meet within the 45 days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the public entity shall have up to three days following the next duly publicly noticed meeting of the governing body after the 45-day period, or extension, expires to provide the claimant a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion. (D) Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim shall be processed and made within 60 days after the public entity issues its written statement. If the public entity fails to issue a written statement, paragraph (3) shall apply.

Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the public entity and the claimant sharing the associated costs equally. The public entity and claimant shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing. If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. If mediation is unsuccessful, the parts of the claim remaining in dispute shall be subject to applicable procedures outside this section. 137
Attachment No. 2
(C) For purposes of this section, mediation includes any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation.

(D) Unless otherwise agreed to by the public entity and the contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to this section shall excuse any further obligation under Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced.
(E) This section does not preclude a public entity from requiring arbitration of disputes under private arbitration or the Public Works Contract Arbitration Program, if mediation under this section does not resolve the parties’ dispute.
(3) Failure by the public entity to respond to a claim from a contractor within the time periods described in this subdivision or to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. A claim that is denied by reason of the public entity’s failure to have responded to a claim, or its failure to otherwise meet the time requirements of this section, shall not constitute an adverse finding with regard to the merits of the claim or the responsibility or qualifications of the claimant. (4) Amounts not paid in a timely manner as required by this section shall bear interest at 7 percent per annum. (5) If a subcontractor or a lower tier subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against a public entity because privity of contract does not exist, the contractor may present to the public entity a claim on behalf of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor. A subcontractor may request in writing, either on their own behalf or on behalf of a lower tier subcontractor, that the contractor present a claim for work which was performed by the subcontractor or by a lower tier subcontractor on behalf of the subcontractor. The subcontractor requesting that the claim be presented to the public entity shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. Within 45 days of receipt of this written request, the contractor shall notify the subcontractor in writing as to whether the contractor presented the claim to the public entity and, if the original contractor did not present the claim, provide the subcontractor with a statement of the reasons for not having done so. (e) The text of this section or a summary of it shall be set forth in the plans or specifications for any public works project that may give rise to a claim under this section. (f) A waiver of the rights granted by this section is void and contrary to public policy, provided, however, that (1) upon receipt of a claim, the parties may mutually agree to waive, in writing, mediation and proceed directly to the commencement of a civil action or binding arbitration, as applicable; and (2) a public entity may prescribe reasonable change order, claim, and dispute resolution procedures and requirements in addition to the provisions of this section, so long as the contractual provisions do not conflict with or otherwise impair the timeframes and procedures set forth in this section. (g) This section applies to contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2017. (h) Nothing in this section shall impose liability upon a public entity that makes loans or grants available through a competitive application process, for the failure of an awardee to meet its contractual obligations. (i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2027, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2027, deletes or extends that date. 138

Products/Pricing
i. Offerors shall provide pricing based on a discount from a manufacturer’s price list or catalog, or fixed price, or a combination of both with indefinite quantities. Prices listed will be used to establish the extent of a manufacturer’s product lines, services, warranties, etc. that are available from Offeror and the pricing per item. Multiple percentage discounts are acceptable if, where different percentage discounts apply, they different percentages are specified. Additional pricing and/or discounts may be included. Products and services proposed are to be priced separately with all ineligible items identified.
Discounts proposed should remain the same for the first 12 months after the contract award. Offerors may elect to limit their proposals to any category or categories. ii. Include an electronic copy of the catalog from which discount, or fixed price, is calculated. Electronic price lists must contain the following: (if applicable) See price list attached. • Manufacturer part #
• Offeror’s Part # (if different from manufacturer part #) • Description
• Manufacturers Suggested List Price and Net Price
• Net price to Region 4 ESC (including freight)
Media submitted for price list must include the Offerors’ company name, name of the solicitation, and date on a Flash Drive (i.e. Pin or Jump Drives).
iii. Offerors should describe their services, parts, and labor components.
Playcraft Systems offers turn-key projects to include supply, delivery, and installation of play equipment, surfacing and related items. Labor component determined by regional factors and requirements not to exceed 65% of retail cost.
iv. Is pricing available for all products and services? Any pricing not shown on the price list is available upon request. v. Describe any shipping charges.
Shipping charges are calculated from Playcraft Systems to end destination and are determined by size, weight, and volume necessary to ship best way.
vi. Provide pricing for warranties on all products and services.
Playcraft Systems® shall deliver the repaired or replacement products to the purchaser free of charge, but shall not provide labor, reimbursements for labor or reimburse any other costs associated with the removal or disposal of the defective products and/or the installation of any replacement products.
Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Playcraft Systems® shall not pay for any costs of shipping replacement parts outside of the continental United States. Any products replaced or repaired consistent with this paragraph shall be guaranteed for the balance of the original warranty period. 155
vii. Describe any return and restocking fees.
Any cancellation after purchase authorization will be subject to a 30% restocking fee. viii. Describe any additional discounts or rebates available. Additional discounts or rebates may be offered for large quantity orders, single ship to location, growth, annual spend, guaranteed quantity, etc.

Customers may request a MSRP authorization letter to confirm pricing. x. Describe payment methods offered.
Payments may be made by check, credit card, or electronic bank authorization. xi. Propose the frequency of updates to the Offeror’s pricing structure. Describe any proposed indices to guide price adjustments. If offering a catalog contract with discounts by category, while changes in individual pricing may change, the category discounts should not change over the term of the Contract.
Playcraft Systems pricing will remain as proposed unless market conditions justify adjustments due to supply of materials and labor costs.
xii. Describe how future product introductions will be priced and align with Contract pricing proposed.
New products introduced into our catalog of items will be priced and aligned with current market conditions. Contract discounts remain as proposed.
xiii. Provide any additional information relevant to this section.
As with any project, cost is a major consideration. Describe a cost model that provides Region 4 ESC and Participating Public Agencies with both the services desired from a complex project perspective and also to know that the product costs are defined and appropriate for the items being procured. Additionally, Region 4 ESC wants to enter into a relationship with the best available company or organization and recognizes that the “best value” is not always provided by the “low-cost proposal”. It is vitally important that a district get value for its dollar and be able to demonstrate this to the taxpayers. Consequently, prospective vendor(s) are required to provide a proposed pricing model that will:
• Be able to demonstrate throughout the life of the contract that the costs associated with this partnership are within normal and customary charges for the type of service provided. • Be simple to administer as specific scopes of work are developed. • Meet all statutory requirements for record keeping, reporting and auditing of public funds. • Adhere to agency purchasing policy.
• Be flexible in working within established budgets.
• Provide firm/competitive prices to clients once the projects are scoped 156
• Provide service rates and contractual maximum uplifts for goods and services through both your firm. • Vendor(s) must submit a cost proposal fully supported by documentation. This must be a verifiable price index for equipment, systems, parts, components, surfacing materials, site furnishings, installation and all other Products, services and supplies offered by the supplier.
See Cost Proposal attached.
• Include building pricing for a current infrastructure build out for a typical agency with appropriate technology infrastructure to support voice video and data to the desktop (data being Internet connectivity at a minimum).
• There may be times where products or services required are needed from a supplier outside of awarded supplier’s capabilities. Indicate how these situations will be handled.
Playcraft Systems, a Playcore company, has access to our sister companies’ portfolio of items. Playcore holdings of companies encompass nearly the whole spectrum of park and playground products and services. If there happens to be an area where we are not able to provide under the Playcore umbrella, Playcraft will do its due diligence to acquire said product or service.
It cannot be over emphasized how important this criterion is to the potential success of any prospective contractor(s) and your particular attention to providing a unique and workable implementation is strongly recommended.
Federal Funding Pricing
Due to products and services potentially being used in response to an emergency or disaster recovery situation in which federal funding may used, provide alternative pricing that does not include cost plus a percentage of cost or pricing based on time and materials; if time and materials is necessary, a ceiling price that the contractor exceeds at its own risk will be needed as determined and set by the Participating Public Agency. Products and services provided in a situation where an agency is eligible for federal funding, Offeror is subject to and must comply with all federal requirements applicable to the funding including, but not limited to the FEMA Special Conditions section located in the Federal Funds Certifications Exhibit.
Not to Exceed Pricing. Region 4 ESC requests pricing be submitted as not to exceed pricing. Unlike fixed pricing, the Contractor can adjust submitted pricing lower if needed but, cannot exceed original pricing submitted. Contractor must allow for lower pricing to be available for similar product and service purchases. Cost plus pricing as a primary pricing structure is not acceptable. 157

Performance Capability
i. Include a detailed response to Appendix D, Exhibit A, OMNIA Partners Response for National Cooperative Contract. Responses should highlight experience, demonstrate a strong national presence, describe how Offeror will educate its national sales force about the Contract, describe how products and services will be distributed nationwide, include a plan for marketing the products and services nationwide, and describe how volume will be tracked and reported to OMNIA Partners.
See attached Appendix D, Exhibit A.
ii. The successful Offeror will be required to sign Appendix D, Exhibit B, OMNIA Partners Administration Agreement prior to Contract award. Offerors should have any reviews required to sign the document prior to submitting a response. Offeror’s response should include any proposed exceptions to OMNIA Partners Administration Agreement on Appendix B, Terms and Conditions Acceptance Form.
See attached Appendix D, Exhibit B.
iii. Include completed Appendix D, Exhibits F. Federal Funds Certifications and G. New Jersey Business Compliance.
See attached Appendix D, Exhibits F and G.
iv. Describe how Offeror responds to emergency orders.
Emergency order will take preference and be moved to the front of the schedule to be completed in a timely manner.
v. What is Offeror’s average Fill Rate?
98%-100% - Rarely does Playcraft have orders cancelled. If by chance a fully executed and manufactured order is canceled, the product is offered to our network of consultants at special pricing. vi. What is Offeror’s average on time delivery rate? Describe Offeror’s history of meeting the shipping and delivery timelines.
95% - We strive very hard to set a shipping schedule date and stick to it. As we are the manufacturer and are among the most vertically integrated playground equipment manufacturers in the nation, we have as much control over shipping schedules as anyone. We do not outsource the manufacturing of our components, as many of our competitors do. In the rare instance that a shipping delay is necessary, we notify our customer immediately (usually 2 weeks prior to shipping date) and agree upon a new date. If the customer cannot agree to a new date, we are almost always able to find a way to maintain the original schedule. Usually, with our notification process, the customer is agreeable to a new ship date. vii. Describe Offeror’s return and restocking policy.
An order may be canceled in writing at any time prior to tender of the Products. All cancellations will be subject to a 30% cancellation/restocking fee.
162
viii. Describe Offeror’s ability to meet service and warranty needs.
Service and warranty needs are addressed by our Customer Service Department. Customer Service personnel is highly knowledgeable of the Playcraft Systems product and warranty parameters. ix. Describe Offeror’s customer service/problem resolution process. Include hours of operation, number of services, etc.
Our customer service department considers problem solution and consultant/customer support to be the number one priority. Most issues are handled with one phone call to us. All other inquiries are resolved with a proposed solution within 24 hours. As we are the manufacturer, we can handle all issues regarding our equipment directly. This contrasts with any bidders who are playground distributors, who will be at the mercy of their manufacturer to provide customer service.
Customer Service Manager is available by email, phone or through our website customer service forms.
