Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
d: Effectively manage and develop City assets.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
MaintStar
The Public Works Department, in collaboration with various key departments, has been working to upgrade the current WAMS and LMS. An interdepartmental group conducted a needs assessment of the City’s WAMS and LMS capabilities, identified functional priorities for the new systems, and reviewed various WAMS and LMS vendor proposals. After review of both management systems’ infrastructures, staff recommends moving forward with MaintStar’sWAMS and LMS systems, which would upgrade the current outdated MaintStar version for WAMS and replace the current outdated CentralSquare/TrakIT LMS.
Our current WAMS system is facilitated by MaintStar. The version of the MaintStar WAMS currently in use by City staff is over 20 years old. MaintStar, with its most current version, has been determined to provide great functionality and would have the ability to provide detailed analytics. The new WAMS benefits departments by providing a proficient real-time cloud-based asset tracking system, including analytics, that will support City staff with preventative maintenance scheduling and performance-based budgeting.
For LMS, the City currently utilizes an outdated LMS system facilitated by CentralSquare/TrakIT that has not been updated in over ten years. After several months of review and discussions with stakeholders from various departments, MaintStar’s LMS real-time asset cloud-based land management platform is being recommended based on cost-effectiveness and the streamlined and efficient interface of the software. The system has the capability to improve project tracking, provide more enhanced permitting support for both customers and staff, will provide a gateway for enhanced customer self-service options, and will create a portal for online plan submittals and permitting.
Staff is recommending a 5-year software agreement, with an option to renew for an additional five years. The agreement includes a not-to-exceed 5% cost escalation based on annual CPI from years two through five.
WAMS
The WAMS is the backbone for managing workflow, capturing asset condition and history, and supporting performance-based budgeting. Technology is continually advancing and upgrading the existing MaintStar WAMS would modernize the City’swork asset management system. The City has been using MaintStar since December 2001 and the current version is past its useful life. Updating to the newest version is a necessary upgrade that will use a cloud-based software solution and provide a mobile platform for field use while improving operations and maintenance processes.
Functionality & Benefits
The cost-effective benefits of upgrading MaintStar are extensive, it will improve asset tracking, streamline maintenance processes, and provide better data management. • Asset Tracking: One of the main benefits of using MaintStar is the software’sability to easily create and manage asset records, including detailed information about the asset's location, City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 2 of 6
powered by Legistar™
41 Item #: 3.4. 3/14/2023 File #: 21-0643
create and manage asset records, including detailed information about the asset's location, condition, and maintenance history. This makes it easy for City staff to quickly locate and assess the condition of an asset, which can help to improve response times, and reduce downtime.
• Streamlined Maintenance Processes: Another benefit is the software’sability to create custom maintenance schedules, which can help to ensure that assets are properly maintained on a regular basis. Additionally, the software includes tools for tracking maintenance requests and work orders, which can help improve communication between staff and ensure that all maintenance tasks are completed in a timely manner. MaintStar will integrate with the City’s“Orange24/7”App to streamline maintenance requests and reduce turnaround time for completing repairs.
• Data Management: With this software, staff can easily access detailed information about their assets, including condition and maintenance history, which can be used to make informed decisions about future maintenance and repairs. Additionally, the software includes tools for generating reports and analyzing data, which can help to identify trends and improve overall performance. Of significant importance, MaintStar will integrate with the City’sGIS system to integrate asset information with our other GIS data layers to create a more comprehensive record of our infrastructure.
The following is a department-by-department breakdown of the benefits of MaintStar’s WAMS:
Public Works
Public Works will be the largest user due to the wide range of managed assets (infrastructure and equipment) in the City of Orange and under the stewardship of the Public Works Department. Assets managed through the software include streets, sidewalks, sewer, water mains, traffic lights, streetlights, vehicles, and facilities. MaintStar’scloud based WAMS will allow in-field and real time information to be available to City staff. Asset history, improvements, plans, pictures, and life-time costs would all be available through the MaintStar system.
The robust collection of data that MaintStar will allow can be used to increase efficiency and maximize the use of the City’sresources. MaintStar software comes with a logic learning component that will assist with work scheduling and preventative maintenance routines. For example, preventative maintenance schedules could be adjusted to improve the function of the asset.
Seasonal changes to assets could be extracted to provide maps of hot spot areas. This would directly benefit our engineering services when conducting needs assessments for infrastructure replacement through the City’s Capital Improvement Program.
Community Services
As part of the Community Services Department, the Parks and Facilities Division is responsible for the City’s22 parks, as well as trails, including the Santiago Creek bike trail, and park facilities. Each park has its own unique set of amenities (community buildings, playgrounds, picnic pavilions, benches, exercise equipment, etc.) as well as, trail and plant materials, irrigation, lighting, and signage.
Community Services has a history of using an antiquated version of MaintStar for basic work order tracking. Generally, the Department intends to use the upgraded version of the software to plan and document maintenance activities of park assets, improve efficiency, and plan for future needs using City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 3 of 6
powered by Legistar™
42 Item #: 3.4. 3/14/2023 File #: 21-0643
document maintenance activities of park assets, improve efficiency, and plan for future needs using tangible data.
Additionally, Parks staff will use labor data collected through work orders to assist in assigning the most appropriate staff to work orders. More specifically, the Department intends to inventory and forecast the lifespan of park and facility assets within the system to initiate/complete work orders, capture associated labor costs, track materials used, provide supporting documentation and photos, evaluate asset replacement needs using hard data, plan future capital projects, and calculate repair/maintenance expenses in conjunction with restitution cases.
With the software’smobile capability, field staff will be able to receive requests, create tasks, and log work performed and resources used in the field with the use of an iPad and/or mobile phone.
Finance
As the City transitions to a performance-based budget, MaintStar provides the ability to deliver real time metrics. Cost to benefit ratio data can be extracted from the WAMS to assist City management when deciding the best use of financial resources related to maintenance and replacement of City assets. MaintStar can also be used to track inventory at the City’swarehouse. Reminders to order inventory can be set as stock drops below a specified threshold. It can also track pricing on unit costs which will assist in budget forecasting.
Information Technology
MaintStar is compatible with currently used City software. Eden, ArcGIS, Laserfiche, Granite Net, and FuelMaster are a few examples of software that can be integrated. MaintStar also offers a mobile citizen reporting app and web browser platform. MaintStar also offers the ability to provide its own citizen reporting app that can be used to further simplify communications between citizen requests and WAMS. A seamless transition of data from GOGov’sOrange 24/7 app to MaintStar is possible and will be evaluated.
Implementation
The overall implementation would occur over one year. A waterfall implementation methodology is proposed from MaintStar for a successful update and integration. There are seven modules (Street Maintenance, Fleet, Facilities, Water, Traffic, Engineering, and Parks) with each module including a design, build, test, delivery and deployment. Remaining with MaintStar allows for historical data to quickly be integrated into the new version and provides historical comparison to existing modules. All modules are expected to be operational in FY 2024. The total 5-year cost of MaintStar’sWAMS is $539,112, which includes a contingency of 10%. The first annual amount is $218,100, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $159,100 and an annual subscription fee of $59,000 which will be adjusted by a five percent increase in subsequent years.
LMS
In September 2010, the City entered into an agreement with CRW Systems Inc. for the installation, data conversion, and training on the TrakIT software for the City’sLMS. The system was used for the issuance and administration of Building Permits, managing, and tracking the development review process, and Code Enforcement tracking, Over the past few years, TrackIT has become outdated and has been plagued with issues including periodic system crashes, unintended inputs, limited features, and very limited software support due to the outdated version the City currently uses.
Staff from Public Works, Community Development, Fire, and other departments have been working City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 4 of 6
powered by Legistar™
43 Item #: 3.4. 3/14/2023 File #: 21-0643
Staff from Public Works, Community Development, Fire, and other departments have been working with an experienced LMS consultant, Park Consulting Group, since early 2022 as part of the City’s LMS procurement efforts. The City’sgoal was to replace or update the outdated TrackIT software with a new permitting and land management system that offers advanced cloud-based technology and augmented functionality.
The move to a new LMS system is essential to improve customer service through improving the ability to better track projects as they move through the development review process, increasing the ability to access permit data for staff and the public, providing a portal for online permitting and electronic plan reviews, and significantly improving operational efficiencies in the City’s land management process. Three software companies, including Tyler Tech, Clariti Cloud, Inc. (Clariti), and CentralSquare, were invited for interviews and conducted software demonstrations based on City specifications. All three companies were evaluated based on responsiveness to the City’s requirements, functionality, and cost. Tyler Tech and Clariti, while having robust functionality, also significantly exceeded the City’sbudget for their services. Tyler Tech and Clariti had costs over $2 million for a 5-year term, as opposed to the City’s project budget of approximately $1 million.
Upgrading the City’sexisting TrakIT system to the LMS system provided by MaintStar were further evaluated as they both possessed functional capabilities that met the City’sneeds and were cost effective given the City’sbudget. After extensive interviews and assessing system technology and essential functions, staff decided to move forward and recommend MaintStar based on its user- friendly and customizable configuration, modern look and feel, and responsiveness to the City’s requirements.
MaintStar’sLMS will provide a streamlined process for development project application and review, assist with managing plan check and inspections, track code enforcement activity, and generate custom reports with an interactive dashboard. The upgrade also includes extensive training for all user groups in various departments and divisions. Core features and key benefits are highlighted below:
• Cloud based operation which allows for online submittal of plans and permit applications to enhance customer service and provide service options;
• Checklists in both reviews and inspections (including providing a mobile field app for staff); • Advanced search query options for reporting;
• Increased GIS integration for permits, projects, and code enforcement cases; • Providing a portal for digital plan submittal and plan check; • Enhanced ability to provide communications and updates to applicants and contractors through the development process;
• Superior reporting that includes a standard report library of approx.100 reports and forms; • Automatic hardware and software upgrades and updates; • Secure data and access and around-the-clock network administration, and; • Certified network environment.
Project implementation is scheduled to begin in April, with an anticipated go-live within 12 months.
The total 5-year cost of MaintStar’sLMS is $604,463, which includes a contingency of 10%. The first annual amount is $282,500, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $273,500 an annual City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 5 of 6
powered by Legistar™
44 Item #: 3.4. 3/14/2023 File #: 21-0643
annual amount is $282,500, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $273,500 an annual subscription fee of $59,000 due when the LMS is live, and a loyalty discount of $50,000. As the City transitions to the new LMS system, we will sunset our current CentralSquare/TrakIT system which will result in savings of about $30,000 per year.
Retention of L.A. Consulting, Inc.
To assist the City’sefforts to implement the MaintStar WAMS and LMS systems, staff recommends the retention of L.A. Consulting, Inc. As MaintStar will be responsible for the conversion of data, training, and transitioning to the new systems, L.A. Consulting, Inc. will assist staff with the procedural efforts to bring the software systems live, including configuring the systems to optimize staff use. L.A. Consulting, Inc. has extensive knowledge of MaintStar which spans more than two decades. L.A. Consulting has assisted the City in the past, as well as other jurisdictions around California. L.A. Consulting, Inc. will be providing operational expertise and hands-on training regarding use of the system on a day-to-day basis and provide feedback on data improvement and integration of the software into daily operations.
Purchase of Smart Devices
Due to the significant upgrade of both the WAMS and LMS, the purchase of new hardware, including Apple iPads and Microsoft Surface Pros, will be included as part of this transition. Significant field- based functionality of both the WAMS and LMS systems will allow field staff to utilize these systems for dispatching work, accessing information, and collecting data. With MaintStar’s cloud-based system, these devices will ensure real time data is being tracked and stored.
Conclusion
MaintStar would provide the City of Orange the resources to efficiently manage its assets and resources while providing opportunities to improve and refine management practices with the assistance of the analytics. The real time cloud based MaintStar will significantly improve both external and internal customer service requests from the current software.

Additionally, the software includes tools for tracking maintenance requests and work orders, which can help improve communication between staff and ensure that all maintenance tasks are completed in a timely manner. MaintStar will integrate with the City’s“Orange24/7”App to streamline maintenance requests and reduce turnaround time for completing repairs.
• Data Management: With this software, staff can easily access detailed information about their assets, including condition and maintenance history, which can be used to make informed decisions about future maintenance and repairs. Additionally, the software includes tools for generating reports and analyzing data, which can help to identify trends and improve overall performance. Of significant importance, MaintStar will integrate with the City’sGIS system to integrate asset information with our other GIS data layers to create a more comprehensive record of our infrastructure.
The following is a department-by-department breakdown of the benefits of MaintStar’s WAMS:
Public Works
Public Works will be the largest user due to the wide range of managed assets (infrastructure and equipment) in the City of Orange and under the stewardship of the Public Works Department. Assets managed through the software include streets, sidewalks, sewer, water mains, traffic lights, streetlights, vehicles, and facilities. MaintStar’scloud based WAMS will allow in-field and real time information to be available to City staff. Asset history, improvements, plans, pictures, and life-time costs would all be available through the MaintStar system.
The robust collection of data that MaintStar will allow can be used to increase efficiency and maximize the use of the City’sresources. MaintStar software comes with a logic learning component that will assist with work scheduling and preventative maintenance routines. For example, preventative maintenance schedules could be adjusted to improve the function of the asset.
Seasonal changes to assets could be extracted to provide maps of hot spot areas. This would directly benefit our engineering services when conducting needs assessments for infrastructure replacement through the City’s Capital Improvement Program.
Community Services
As part of the Community Services Department, the Parks and Facilities Division is responsible for the City’s22 parks, as well as trails, including the Santiago Creek bike trail, and park facilities. Each park has its own unique set of amenities (community buildings, playgrounds, picnic pavilions, benches, exercise equipment, etc.) as well as, trail and plant materials, irrigation, lighting, and signage.
Community Services has a history of using an antiquated version of MaintStar for basic work order tracking. Generally, the Department intends to use the upgraded version of the software to plan and document maintenance activities of park assets, improve efficiency, and plan for future needs using City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 3 of 6

document maintenance activities of park assets, improve efficiency, and plan for future needs using tangible data.
Additionally, Parks staff will use labor data collected through work orders to assist in assigning the most appropriate staff to work orders. More specifically, the Department intends to inventory and forecast the lifespan of park and facility assets within the system to initiate/complete work orders, capture associated labor costs, track materials used, provide supporting documentation and photos, evaluate asset replacement needs using hard data, plan future capital projects, and calculate repair/maintenance expenses in conjunction with restitution cases.
With the software’smobile capability, field staff will be able to receive requests, create tasks, and log work performed and resources used in the field with the use of an iPad and/or mobile phone.
Finance
As the City transitions to a performance-based budget, MaintStar provides the ability to deliver real time metrics. Cost to benefit ratio data can be extracted from the WAMS to assist City management when deciding the best use of financial resources related to maintenance and replacement of City assets. MaintStar can also be used to track inventory at the City’swarehouse. Reminders to order inventory can be set as stock drops below a specified threshold. It can also track pricing on unit costs which will assist in budget forecasting.
Information Technology
MaintStar is compatible with currently used City software. Eden, ArcGIS, Laserfiche, Granite Net, and FuelMaster are a few examples of software that can be integrated. MaintStar also offers a mobile citizen reporting app and web browser platform. MaintStar also offers the ability to provide its own citizen reporting app that can be used to further simplify communications between citizen requests and WAMS. A seamless transition of data from GOGov’sOrange 24/7 app to MaintStar is possible and will be evaluated.
Implementation
The overall implementation would occur over one year. A waterfall implementation methodology is proposed from MaintStar for a successful update and integration. There are seven modules (Street Maintenance, Fleet, Facilities, Water, Traffic, Engineering, and Parks) with each module including a design, build, test, delivery and deployment. Remaining with MaintStar allows for historical data to quickly be integrated into the new version and provides historical comparison to existing modules. All modules are expected to be operational in FY 2024. The total 5-year cost of MaintStar’sWAMS is $539,112, which includes a contingency of 10%. The first annual amount is $218,100, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $159,100 and an annual subscription fee of $59,000 which will be adjusted by a five percent increase in subsequent years.
LMS
In September 2010, the City entered into an agreement with CRW Systems Inc. for the installation, data conversion, and training on the TrakIT software for the City’sLMS. The system was used for the issuance and administration of Building Permits, managing, and tracking the development review process, and Code Enforcement tracking, Over the past few years, TrackIT has become outdated and has been plagued with issues including periodic system crashes, unintended inputs, limited features, and very limited software support due to the outdated version the City currently uses.
Staff from Public Works, Community Development, Fire, and other departments have been working City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 4 of 6

Staff from Public Works, Community Development, Fire, and other departments have been working with an experienced LMS consultant, Park Consulting Group, since early 2022 as part of the City’s LMS procurement efforts. The City’sgoal was to replace or update the outdated TrackIT software with a new permitting and land management system that offers advanced cloud-based technology and augmented functionality.
The move to a new LMS system is essential to improve customer service through improving the ability to better track projects as they move through the development review process, increasing the ability to access permit data for staff and the public, providing a portal for online permitting and electronic plan reviews, and significantly improving operational efficiencies in the City’s land management process. Three software companies, including Tyler Tech, Clariti Cloud, Inc. (Clariti), and CentralSquare, were invited for interviews and conducted software demonstrations based on City specifications. All three companies were evaluated based on responsiveness to the City’s requirements, functionality, and cost. Tyler Tech and Clariti, while having robust functionality, also significantly exceeded the City’sbudget for their services. Tyler Tech and Clariti had costs over $2 million for a 5-year term, as opposed to the City’s project budget of approximately $1 million.
Upgrading the City’sexisting TrakIT system to the LMS system provided by MaintStar were further evaluated as they both possessed functional capabilities that met the City’sneeds and were cost effective given the City’sbudget. After extensive interviews and assessing system technology and essential functions, staff decided to move forward and recommend MaintStar based on its user- friendly and customizable configuration, modern look and feel, and responsiveness to the City’s requirements.
MaintStar’sLMS will provide a streamlined process for development project application and review, assist with managing plan check and inspections, track code enforcement activity, and generate custom reports with an interactive dashboard. The upgrade also includes extensive training for all user groups in various departments and divisions. Core features and key benefits are highlighted below:
• Cloud based operation which allows for online submittal of plans and permit applications to enhance customer service and provide service options;
• Checklists in both reviews and inspections (including providing a mobile field app for staff); • Advanced search query options for reporting;
• Increased GIS integration for permits, projects, and code enforcement cases; • Providing a portal for digital plan submittal and plan check; • Enhanced ability to provide communications and updates to applicants and contractors through the development process;
• Superior reporting that includes a standard report library of approx.100 reports and forms; • Automatic hardware and software upgrades and updates; • Secure data and access and around-the-clock network administration, and; • Certified network environment.
Project implementation is scheduled to begin in April, with an anticipated go-live within 12 months.
The total 5-year cost of MaintStar’sLMS is $604,463, which includes a contingency of 10%. The first annual amount is $282,500, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $273,500 an annual City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 5 of 6
powered by Legistar™
50 Item #: 3.4. 3/14/2023 File #: 21-0643
annual amount is $282,500, which includes a one-time implementation cost of $273,500 an annual subscription fee of $59,000 due when the LMS is live, and a loyalty discount of $50,000. As the City transitions to the new LMS system, we will sunset our current CentralSquare/TrakIT system which will result in savings of about $30,000 per year.
Retention of L.A. Consulting, Inc.
To assist the City’sefforts to implement the MaintStar WAMS and LMS systems, staff recommends the retention of L.A. Consulting, Inc. As MaintStar will be responsible for the conversion of data, training, and transitioning to the new systems, L.A. Consulting, Inc. will assist staff with the procedural efforts to bring the software systems live, including configuring the systems to optimize staff use. L.A. Consulting, Inc. has extensive knowledge of MaintStar which spans more than two decades. L.A. Consulting has assisted the City in the past, as well as other jurisdictions around California. L.A. Consulting, Inc. will be providing operational expertise and hands-on training regarding use of the system on a day-to-day basis and provide feedback on data improvement and integration of the software into daily operations.
Purchase of Smart Devices
Due to the significant upgrade of both the WAMS and LMS, the purchase of new hardware, including Apple iPads and Microsoft Surface Pros, will be included as part of this transition. Significant field- based functionality of both the WAMS and LMS systems will allow field staff to utilize these systems for dispatching work, accessing information, and collecting data. With MaintStar’s cloud-based system, these devices will ensure real time data is being tracked and stored.
Conclusion
MaintStar would provide the City of Orange the resources to efficiently manage its assets and resources while providing opportunities to improve and refine management practices with the assistance of the analytics. The real time cloud based MaintStar will significantly improve both external and internal customer service requests from the current software.

ESTIMATED DURATION: 3 Months
The above estimations are made with the assumption that City of Orange staff are reasonably available to work with MaintStar and vice versa. To facilitate timely completion of the project, Orange will endeavor to provide access to existing databases and systems, conversion testing, end user acceptance, requirements for reports and milestone acknowledgement.
Meetings and Updates
Regularly scheduled meetings are critical to ensure two-way communication, expectation management and project milestones are achieved. MaintStar recommends twice weekly scheduled meetings to discuss actions, issues, and other project related items. At a minimum, project managers and technical leads should be available for these meetings.
At the request of City of Orange, MaintStar will provide a dedicated project manager to be on site and in the field for 3 weeks during Month 1, 2 weeks of Month 2 and 2 weeks of Month 3. The investment of this time will be invaluable to the project and ensure timely completion.
Training Plan
During the implementation, 35 days of onsite and (optional) online training will be provided to ensure staff are sufficiently trained in customizations, asset management, work order entry and completion, report generation and other agreed upon requirements. To ensure appropriate resources are 72 STATEMENT OF WORK FOR THE CITY OF ORANGE
MARCH 3, 2023
3510 Turtle Creek Blvd #17B
Dallas • TX • 75319
available, MaintStar requests as much notice as possible when scheduling any training. The training plan will be developed and provided to ensure training is tailored to the staff in attendance.
At the City’s option, MaintStar may be available to provide 1 week of training for years 2-5. 5 Days onsite training @ $13,500 per week all expenses included. Upgrades are of no charge first 5 years as Hosting, Licenses, and Support are current.
The estimated professional fees are based on the resource requirements forecast at the time of the quotes and are subject to change because of changes in the project schedule, scope, or resource requirements for given tasks/activities.
Go-Live Conditions
The purpose of the Go-Live process to ensure that the MaintStar system is fully functional and operating properly. Particularly important will be the Public facing modules which must perform all advertised functions for City of Orange residents by the end of the go-live process. MaintStar will work with the City of Orange to coordinate a mutually agreeable Go-Live date which will be dependent on staff availability, end user training and system readiness. During the system implementation and data conversion phase, all customizations, setup tables, data validation and reports will be confirmed prior to, during and after Go-Live, as follows:
• Conditions for Go Live: City of Orange sign-off on reports, screen customizations, data import, asset and asset type setup, workgroup configuration, user accounts, work request and portal setup, and critical setup tables.
• Pre-Go Live: Subject Matter Expert crossover training, end user training, access to legacy database, City communications and outreach to internal/external customers, scheduling of downtime.
• Go Live: MaintStar to run final conversion, usually on a Thursday and Friday with Saturday and Sunday being reserved for any necessary work. City to shut down legacy system during this time and commit to running on “paper” during the outage. • Post Go Live: MaintStar staff to be available to provide production support. City of Orange to schedule the retirement of the legacy system

PROJECT SCHEDULE
Upon execution of this SOW, MaintStar and the City will collaborate to determine a start date for services to be rendered. MaintStar will work with City staff to collaboratively define a baseline project schedule to achieve a 6 to 12- month schedule.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
By mutual agreement, MaintStar will work with the City to provide ongoing project management services throughout the implementation to plan and monitor the execution of the project following the activities outlined in the SOW. These services include the following:
• Facilitate a weekly project status meeting with MaintStar and the City Project Team to review tasks completed during the prior weeks, the upcoming tasks requiring completion during the coming weeks, the resources needed to complete the tasks, a listing of any issues that may be placing the project at risk (e.g., issues that may delay the project or jeopardize the production date). • The City Project Manager will work with MaintStar to manage Project Documentation using the LMS Implementation record type, including:
• Issue log management and escalation
• Status reporting
• Change Order Management
• Resource Management
• Project oversight
• Facilitate a monthly project review meeting with the Project Steering Committee • Payment Vendor Integration for portal payment processing
CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS
To successfully execute the services described herein, there are several critical success factors for the project:
• Knowledge Transfer: A critical part of the implementation involves MaintStar’s transfer of knowledge to the City so that the City builds its knowledge to become self- sustainable in supporting MaintStar LMS.
After post-production assistance tasks are completed by MaintStar, The City will be responsible for the normal administrative support for the MaintStar LMS system. The administration support includes tasks like: fee updates, updating TBS document templates, managing users and rights, internal training, etc. Strong and focused participation by City staff throughout the configuration and deployment of MaintStar LMS will enable MaintStar to equip the City to assume operation of MaintStar LMS once the • Dedicated City Participants: The success of the project hinges on thoughtful, prepared, and sustained participation from City staff. MaintStar fully understands City staff has responsibilities that will compete with the time that can be dedicated to the MaintStar LMS implementations project and will take steps to be respectful of that time.

Statement of Work – Land Management Software and Deployment MaintStar, Inc. | 3510 Turtle Creek Blvd. Unit 17B • Dallas, TX 75219 | City of Orange | February 8, 2023 page 6
ITERATIVE REFINEMENT TO SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
MaintStar will use the proven phased and iterative implementation approach, ensuring process-specific detail perfection before each subsequent stage (iterative refinement processing). A collaborative Project Management system offers project governance and a mutual method for tracking implementation. All implementation uses a formalized sign-off process, defined by clearly stated deliverables.
WEB-BASED SHADOW TRAINING
During the course of implementation MaintStar performs web based shawdow training. Shawdow training method (“show you, show me”) is a proven method to provide users and customer teams to gain a confident strong understanding not only of system operation but system design concepts that they leverage to get the most advantages from the applications.
As each milestone is achieved, mutual testing with shawdow training provides optimal combination of implementation success measurement, ease of use feedback, and system understanding.

Subject- Updated the Proposal for MaintStar (MS) 15 Upgrade, Enhancement, and Support Dear Mr. Cash and Ms. Hardy:
Pursuant to your request, LA Consulting. Inc. (LAC) has updated the enclosed scope of tasks to review and document existing MaintStar system processes and support. We have outlined what we believe is the task that MaintStar should do within our scope. We did not understand some of their proposed efforts outlined in MS scope, so we just incorporated those within this scope, minimizing potential overlap. Therefore, our costing does not include MS' effort.
In general, MS should be responsible for converting the data, loading the system, linking, and integrating GIS, high-level training, fixing bugs, and providing basic working functionality for the system. LAC's role is to make the system work for PW and CSD by properly configuring it to optimize the use of the system and match the City's needs. In addition, LAC operational expertise will provide hands-on training on using the system on a day-to-day basis and how to apply the data to improve and monitor operations.
We hope to help optimize your organization with the new system upgrade through this effort. We have the background, experience, and capability to provide this assistance. We appreciate the opportunity to assist the City of Orange Public Works and Community Services; we look forward to your response.
Sincerely,

SCOPE OF WORK
OVERVIEW
The City of Orange Public Works and Community Services Department has decided to utilize the City's MaintStar system and participate in implementing the system upgrade.
Successful completion of this implementation is dependent on the interaction and participation between LA Consulting, Inc. ("LAC"), Public Works (PW), and Community Services Department (CSD) personnel. Therefore, the project is divided into two Phases. Phase A is to configure the V15 Update software to meet the PW and CSD system requirements and desires. Phase B is the actual implementation of the software of the MaintStar V15 Update.
LAC suggests the City have the MaintStar (MS) vendor responsible for specific tasks shown in blue text.
In general, MS is responsible for setting up and configuring the MaintStar SQL database, converting the data, verifying proper data conversion, linking, integrating GIS, high-level training, fixing bugs, and providing basic working functionality for the system. LAC's role is to make the system work operationally for PW and CSD by properly configuring it to optimize the use of the system and match City needs. In addition, LAC operational expertise will provide hands-on training on using the system on a day-to-day basis and how to apply the data to improve and monitor operations.
WORK TASK PHASE A
Task A-1 – Establish the City of Orange Implementation Team and Kick Off LAC will work with the City of Orange Project Managers (one from PW and one CSD) to establish an implementation team. The implementation team will guide the process to ensure that all the relevant needs are addressed. The team members will also be entirely trained in system utilization. LAC will make an initial presentation and interact with the team to outline an implementation plan.
LAC anticipates an eight-month implementation and a monthly status meeting.
Deliverable: The implementation team is established, and an implementation schedule is outlined with monthly monitoring.
MAINTSTAR (MS) TASK
After the City sends credentials or allows access to current databases, MS will copy the database to their servers and upgrade the existing MaintStar application from Version 12 (11 current version?) to Version 15. This effort will include converting all locations, assets, work history, daily work entries, inventory, work orders, and appropriate setup tables.
Deliverable: MS system upgraded to V15, data converted and verified.
Task A-2 – Update and Configure MaintStar Work Processes LAC will perform a precursory review of the data stored in the City of Orange database.
Standard reports will be generated from the database to review work reporting details and data 126
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 2 City of Orange
configuration. LAC will also confirm basic data requirements for labor, equipment, and materials reporting. After reviewing the data and work processes, LAC will coordinate with the City Project Managers to enhance work processes to integrate with the upgraded version of MaintStar.
LAC will help coordinate the upgrade of the new MaintStar system and confirm the import of the prior database into version 15 by MaintStar. This will include quality control of the transferred data and tables to ensure the proper movement of the data from the preceding version. LAC will then assist the City in communicating with the vendor and configuring the new database. Sub- tasks include:
a. Set up new security settings and work groups with group assignments, confirming assets and locations.
b. Coordination with MaintStar and City of Orange staff to establish a linkage between the City of Orange GIS database and MaintStar database to allow this system to be integrated with the application and develop work processes to use the GIS linkage.
LAC will test the configuration with the implementation team and coordinate with City Orange's IT group and the MaintStar vendor to allow a test database to be created. Efforts will be made to ensure all available and relevant data is moved to the new system. If other population of the new database is required, LAC will facilitate completing these needs with the vendor. LAC anticipates two (2) onsite meetings to complete this effort with follow-up electronic communications.
Deliverable: Updated and enhanced CMMS and related business processes confirmed before data and process imported into new version 15.
MAINTSTAR (MS) TASK
After LAC reviews the conversion and identifies issues found in reports, tables, and files, MS will reconvert locations, assets, work history, daily work entries, inventory, work orders, and appropriate setup tables as needed. Then once confirmed by LAC and the City, the vendor will install MaintStar software with City rights, including SSO, in their Cloud based system to allow access to management, supervisors, and administrative staff. This work will be done in conjunction with IT staff to ensure data and programs are loaded following the City guidelines.
The process of accessing the hosted software will be documented and included in the system documentation.
Complete support for the GIS integration and implementation will be done with MS working with the City GIS and ITS staff to ensure integration with V15.
Deliverable: MS system data validated, GIS integrated with V15, and production database established with City user access.
TASK A-3 – INSTALL SOFTWARE COORDINATION.
LAC will check and confirm MaintStar access for each workstation location to ensure correct operation.
This task will consist of installing the appropriate URL, establishing user credentials, and providing 127
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 3 City of Orange
proper documentation that is acquired or prepared. The effort will require coordination with GIS and city IT departments by LAC, but the software vendor will actually establish the hosted system and database.
LAC anticipates a single day onsite to complete this effort.
End Product: Software will be loaded, operational, and available for City access.
Phase B – Software and Business Practices Implementation Phase B encompasses thirteen (13) tasks. A description of each work task follows. These descriptions include the processes, methods, procedures to be used, and the expected result. This phase's tasks are primarily internal and will be conducted with guidance and direction from LAC.
PW and CSD Commitment: As outlined in our scope, LAC's uniquely successful process requires considerable PW and CSD staff involvement and commitment. Many of these requirements are outlined in the tasks, with a summary listed below. In addition, these requirements will include the following to be provided by the CSD:
Available Project Coordinators with detailed PW and CSD background in the work effort and knowledge of the key employees, as well as to assist in scheduling meetings, presentations, and reviews.
PW and employees must be made available with ten-day notice. Assistance to the Project Coordinators in scheduling meetings, presentation locations, etc. Key staff must attend all relevant meetings with ten days' notice. Documents/information requested must be produced within ten days of request. Provide data, if available, in electronic format to expedite the process within ten days of request. The documents produced by LAC must each be reviewed and returned to LAC by the PW and CSD within ten working days.
Directly assigned CSD support staff to assist in data collection and compilation in all yards must be available throughout the effort.
Assigned PW and CSD employees must directly assist in the implementation project, with employees at each venue assigned to be the "super users." The latter will then train others to maintain and utilize the system into the future and assure the institutionalization of the system.
SOFTWARE IMPLEMENTATION
Phase B will focus on software implementation and business practices development. Coordination will occur with the selected software vendor for the population of databases with the collected data, training, and system configuration. LAC's role will be to facilitate and implement a system that matches the City's needs. In addition, LAC will work for the PW and CSD and with the software vendor to ensure that the system achieves the desired qualities when implemented, with the understanding that the system may not fully meet the needs of the PW and CSD without a proper evaluation.
MAINTSTAR (MS) TASK
A kickoff meeting with the project team will occur. The overall implementation plan will be outlined. Key participants from City and LAC will attend, and a schedule will be identified.
128
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 4 City of Orange
Deliverable: MS system schedule outlined and discussed with City.
TASK B1 – INITIATE BUSINESS PROCESS IMPLEMENTATION
Orientation meetings are planned at the start of the project and will be held to familiarize participants with the general approach. The project initiation effort will have five subtasks:
Project Startup
Preparation of a Detailed Work Schedule
Establishment of a Management Working Committee (MWC) Outline and establishment of a Working Committee (WC) Conducting an Orientation
The PW and CSD will select the project's members from the Management Working Committee (MWC) and Working Committees (WC). The MWC should consist of members that the PW and CSD desire to have a broad overview of the project. The members of the MWC must be able to make policy decisions and provide direction to subordinates in their assigned groups. The members of the MWC will also provide oversight and review of project deliverables. The Working Committee(s) members should be composed of employees from all organizational levels. These groups will need to be the most flexible in their makeup mix. The committee members should be the PW and CSD's topic experts unique to the task.
The implementation will have standard processes for maintenance and operations but will be tailored to each group's needs and requirements.
Two meetings are estimated to complete this effort.
End Product: All identified groups will have complete exposure to the planned implementation process and methodology.
MAINTSTAR (MS) TASK
MS trainer will provide two-day training onsite on the functionality of the MS V15 system and guidance to GIS and IT staff on its security, SSO, and group settings. In addition, an overview and general guidance for the users will occur, and another session with Project Managers and IT on system controls and administration will be provided.
Deliverable: Basic training in functionality and system administration is provided.
TASK B2 – SOFTWARE SYSTEM TRAINING SUPPORT
In addition to fundamental software training provided by the software vendor, further training or coaching will be necessary to acclimate staff to the new software package and related functionality to the desired work processes. Acting not as an agent to the vendor but as a consultant for the CSD, LAC will provide the PW and CSD with this supplemental training and coaching to ensure the system and related management processes are understood and applied by all stakeholders. LAC will contact the software vendor if needed to determine the most appropriate actions.
LAC will provide telephonic support and conduct training sessions if necessary. It is anticipated that the annual maintenance contract for the vendor software package will be purchased for this timeframe. The initial training will include system setup, configuration, security, form, and screen layout. 129
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 5 City of Orange
Also, LAC anticipates participating in a two-day training session conducted by MS.
End product: LAC will provide backup training, coaching, and support as necessary.
TASK B3 – BUSINESS PROCESS ENHANCEMENT
The following tasks result from LAC experience and PW and CSD staff feedback in Task B1. Much of the effort will focus on fully implementing the system software for work planning, organizing, scheduling, controlling, and related business processes.
The work planning effort involves determining major activities, defining guidelines, obtaining resource information, performing condition assessments, and computing the level of effort, which in turn will allow the future development of a work program and budget using MaintStar. Upon completion of the process, the planning will determine the amount of work to be performed annually by the CSD (work plans). Planning provides the basis or the "bar" to which the overall system is to be compared and is a crucial tool for efficiency and accountability.
TASK B3.1 – DEFINE AND CONFIRM WORK ACTIVITY LIST
A list of the significant maintenance work activities performed by each group will be refined, updated, prepared, and entered into a database. This list will include a description of the work activity, a unit of measure to calculate the work accomplished, and a physical feature inventory on which the work is performed. For example:
Name Description
Mowing: All work associated with the mowing of grass throughout the City for aesthetics and water quality issues
Measurement Unit: AC
Inlet cleaning: All work is associated with removing debris in the catch basin inlet to ensure a proper stormwater flow that is not impeded and reducing debris in the system.
Measurement Unit: Each
The activity list will be prepared and updated with input from the Working Committees (WC) and presented to the Management Working Committee (MWC) during a meeting to finalize each item. This will ensure that the description and measurement units exist and are appropriate for each activity.
This list will then provide the basis to determine the annual maintenance requirements for each activity and measure the amount of work accomplished daily.
End product: A list of all work activities with a description and measurement unit.
TASK B3.2– INVENTORY OF PHYSICAL FEATURES
An inventory database of all physical features in the infrastructure network will be prepared. This database will include for CSD the type, quantity, and location of features for each infrastructure type (Restroom to clean, acres to mow, etc.). For PW, features would be streets, inlets, traffic signals, water 130
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 6 City of Orange
lines, valves, sewer lines, laterals, etc. Existing data files and inventories are minimal but will be used to compile a database of features. If they exist, files in GIS will be used and populated by City as other assets are identified.
LAC will identify the required missing information to be collected and processed. The CSD and PW will collect the necessary data via in-house capabilities or other services. In addition, LAC will be accountable for the general design and training of data collection. This task assumes that the collected data will be linked to MaintStar software with the PW and CSD employees working with the vendor and supported by LAC.
End product: A complete inventory and database of key physical features of infrastructure will be established.
TASK B3.3 – DETERMINE MAINTENANCE SERVICE LEVELS
Working with the WC, LAC will establish the maintenance service levels required for each defined activity and the quantity and frequency of work expected to be accomplished annually per inventory unit.
This will include determining the desired service level needed to maintain a feature element and a funded service level and documenting the service level appropriate to funding constraints. An example of these is shown below:
Activity – Restroom Cleaning - weekly
Activity –Mowing – 10 times a year
Activity – Inlet cleaning – twice a year
The current service level estimates will be based on observation, material usage, schedules, and policy.
The desired service levels are those that the PW and CSD want to accomplish in providing service and protecting infrastructure assets. A funded service level is the service level provided within funding guidelines for a given year. The consultant will support determining existing service levels and benchmarking against similar agency service levels. This will assist in determining the PW and CSD's desired service levels. This process will be documented to ensure that staff can utilize the system in updating future service levels.
Three (3) meetings are estimated to complete this effort.
End product: Desired and funded service levels for each activity will be determined, and processes will be established.
TASK B3.4 – ESTABLISH ROUTINE AND PM PROGRAMS
LAC will work with the MWC and WCs to establish PM routines for several significant activities. In addition, LAC will work to outline maintenance routines for activities that exist; It is anticipated that LAC will establish two routines each for PW and CSD and guide city staff to do the remainder.
Select WC and MWC members will be established to set up specific routines for crucial maintenance activities. A complete listing with frequencies will be prepared. A committee will be set up in each area to make these determinations.
A complete process will be established to determine routines for all activities identified for maintenance.
A listing, approach, and methodology that can be updated and refined for up to four activities will be selected.
A short presentation will be prepared for the WC for all routines. In addition, an outline of the results after receipt of input will be organized, and each selected activity will be linked to an asset, building, location, and/or area to allow for integration into the selected MaintStar. 131
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 7 City of Orange
LAC anticipates two (2) meetings for this effort.
End product: Routines will be established for key maintenance activities.
TASK B3.5 – DEFINE WORK METHOD AND GUIDELINES
The most efficient work method will be reviewed, enhanced, and/or developed for each activity, and the purpose of this will be to determine the following:
The logical sequence of steps to be followed while performing the activity Quality checks are required to ensure that the activity is done correctly The safety requirements associated with performing the activity The follow-up (if needed) to inspect the results of the work Work methods will be reviewed, discussed, and developed during a working session with the WCs and will be documented in a systematic format for each defined work activity. The most efficient approach to each training will be identified by utilizing the consultant project team's experience with similar agencies throughout the United States and further enhanced with the expertise of PW and CSD staff.
LAC will work with agency staff to develop or update an Activity Guideline for each defined work activity. Each Activity Guideline will include the following:
Reason for performing the activity
Description of the activity
Work scheduling criteria, including time of year work, are expected to be completed Optimal size and mix of crew
Equipment and materials required
Expected average daily production range
Anticipated quality
The WC members will prepare or update each guideline under the direction of the consultant and will compile the guidelines from departmental drafts and team meetings. Files will be established for all maintenance, facilities, administrative, materials, and property sections. Each section will then be in a position to keep the guidelines current and updated in the future. The drafts will be reviewed, edited, and finalized with the input, guidance, and counsel of the MWC.
The best management practices will be established for all activities, with an additional focus on critical activities and some relevant new ones. This effort will include a detailed review of up to three significant activities per group where direct cost, productivity, and method comparisons can be made to match work and staff sizes.
LAC anticipates three (3) meetings.
End product: An activity guideline for each activity with a specific work method.
TASK B3.6 – DEVELOP EQUIPMENT RATES AND POPULATE DATABASE LAC, with Fleet assistance, will develop hourly rates for all equipment, including all costs. A listing by vehicle will be prepared with rates and classifications. A separate FEMA rate will also be compiled by general vehicle classification. The two rates will be identified for each piece of equipment.
LAC will prepare estimates and review them with the Working Committee. A spreadsheet will be designed that outlines the costs. These equipment class rates will then be entered into the MaintStar.
This will be documented in a short working paper, presented to the MWC, and coordinated with Fleet. In addition, PW and CSD staff will be trained for future rate updates. 132
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 8 City of Orange
LAC anticipates one (1) meeting for this effort.
End product: Produce a working paper outlining equipment rates.
TASK B 3.7 – ASSIST THE DEPARTMENT IN DEVELOPING BOTH AVOIDABLE AND
FULL OVERHEAD RATES
LAC will work with Finance staff to determine two overheads reflecting the PW and CSD's actual work cost. One will be an avoidable cost overhead, and another will be a full overhead developed for external billing and reimbursement. Existing, established full overhead rates will be updated to the new rates. The consultant will help document and develop an annual process to update the overhead rates and integrate the rates into the MaintStar.
A presentation of final overheads will be presented to the MWC. Two (2) meetings are anticipated.
End product: Assist in establishing and documenting overhead rates and an update process.
TASK B 3.8– DEVELOP PERFORMANCE-BASED WORK PROGRAM AND BUDGET After the activities, inventories, and work calendar have been established and/or updated, a performance- based work program and budget will be prepared, and a balance between desired service levels and available funds will be developed. A system will be established with the ability to compile summaries of plans, such as square feet or by a group.
The work program and budget in MaintStar by the group will include, at a minimum:
The feature inventory quantity
The annual work quantity
The planned crew size
The total days of work for each activity
The average daily production for each activity
The cost of labor, equipment, and materials for each activity The total annual cost, by activity, and for the entire work program Each group's work programs and budgets will also be summed up to produce an annual work program and budget for the entire operations and maintenance section. All work planned for others will be built into the system, and a report will be produced outlining the anticipated revenue planned in the budget from others.
The plan will enable project efforts for various special events with established activities and service levels. Further, the plan will be used to estimate all work to be done for the year, including all after hours and overtime efforts.
The work plan will be divided into groups to allow for complete workload planning.
LAC anticipates three (3) meetings for this effort.
End product: Annual work program and budget for each activity and the maintenance division.
TASK B3.9 – DETERMINE RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS
After the initial work program and budget are determined, the annual labor, equipment, and material needs will be identified by LAC. A yearly calendar showing monthly resource needs will determine the monthly and annual quantities of materials, labor, and equipment required to fulfill the yearly plan.
This is accomplished through the system by utilizing the schedule information taken from the activity guidelines and the annual work program quantities.
133
Scope of Service, and Cost Proposal: Consultant for MaintStar Implementation LA Consulting – December 30, 2022 9 City of Orange
The tool in MaintStar would be established with PW and CSD staff trained to estimate project needs using the work performance tool. Using the Work Program in task B4-8, a work breakdown by activity by month will be done. This will allow for work to be scheduled on a proactive basis.
The distribution will be reviewed in a working meeting with each group to confirm the timing by activity and used to update the plan. Routines, work history, and goals will be used to allocate determined work.
Two (2) meetings are anticipated.
End product: A list of required resources to fulfill the annual plan and a tool established for future projections and work calendar by month by activity
MAINTSTAR (MS) TASK
MS will modify and configure the system as necessary to match the needs of the City for the setup of the portal (if used), work request, and work order system. This will involve a virtual training session and guidance to ensure the program is properly functioning.
Deliverable: MS system work requests and work orders are configured and operational.
TASK B3.10 – IMPLEMENT A WORK REQUEST SYSTEM
LAC will implement the work request process for all groups utilizing the MaintStar system. LAC will work with the vendor to make the best of selected software to match customer needs and provide a tool for scheduling. LAC will assist all supervisors in utilizing the new processes and establishing business processes for the system to work successfully. This will allow all requested information to be stored in one place and accessed by staff. Other PW and CSD employees who will utilize requests for service will be trained to use the system.
Two (2) meetings are anticipated.
End product: Implementation of an automated Service Request System.
TASK B3.11– ESTABLISH WORK SCHEDULING PROCEDURES
LAC will work with employees and supervisors to establish short-term work scheduling procedures. A process for identifying, assigning, allocating resources, and estimating the time required to complete the various activities will be determined. This and a routine for scheduling meetings and monitoring maintenance progress will be identified.
Future processes for allocating resources to jobs will be outlined and integrated with the MaintStar capabilities, such as a work backlog and work calendars. In addition, a procedure will be developed, allowing staff to plan in advance and enable personnel to have the right resources on the right job at the right time. This effort will combine the system's capabilities with those of the supervisors.
LAC will present and teach the scheduling procedures to the appropriate personnel. In addition, LAC will monitor and direct this procedure during the first two months of implementation to ensure compliance and allow for fine-tuning of all processes involved.
Four (4) meetings are anticipated.
End product: Development of a bi-weekly scheduling system.

Item #: 3.5. 3/14/2023 File #: 22-0698
Located at Hart Park, Diamond 1 is used as a collegiate-level baseball field. The field was renovated in the early 1970’sto include field lighting, bleachers, and foul line fencing. The City currently has agreements with Chapman University (Chapman) and Orange Lutheran High School (OLU) for exclusive use of the field from November 1 - May 31.
With the higher level of play occurring at the field, safety concerns (specifically foul balls leaving the playing area and entering the adjacent condominium complex) at the passive park areas and the parking lot have been identified, as the current foul line fencing is inadequate. In discussions, Chapman, OLU, and the City have agreed improvements to the field need to be completed, specifically installation of ball field netting along the first and third base lines and installation of a new backstop. New light poles and LED fixtures will be options considered as part of the overall improvement project (pending available funding). Both Chapman and OLU submitted letters of commitment for the project and as a result, the Capital Improvement Project (CIP), Hart Park Diamond 1 Field Improvements (30133) was approved by City Council. An aerial view of the project site is attached for reference (Attachment 1).
A Request for Proposal (RFP 22-23.22) was issued in December 2022 for design services from a qualified landscape architecture and civil engineering firm with proven experience in collegiate level baseball field netting and lighting design. The City received one responsive and responsible proposal from Verde Design. Staff reviewed the proposal and based on the firm’s experience, overall qualifications, record of success, and overall responsiveness to the RFP, staff deemed Verde Design qualified. Staff verified the qualifications of the vendor with references provided for similar projects and received positive responses.
Verde Design’sproposed cost for the project is $134,803 which includes geotechnical investigation, topographic survey, foul ball trajectory for collegiate players, a conceptual plan, construction drawings and estimate of probable construction costs. Including a 20 percent contingency of $26,960.60 for unanticipated expenses, the total not to exceed amount for the contract is $161,763.60. The cost for the design is included in Fiscal Year 2022-23 CIP through the Park Acquisition (Infill) fund (510). It is anticipated that the design process will take approximately five to six months to complete. Once construction documents are completed, a RFP will be issued for construction.
City staff will manage and oversee the project with input provided by Chapman and OLU. Once a final design has been selected, the City will work with the two groups to determine the shared costs (as these two groups are the primary field users), before award of construction.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
THRU: Tom Kisela, Interim City Manager
FROM: Susan Galvan, Assistant City Manager
1. SUBJECT
Agreement with Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) for Business License and Tax Services Software as a single source vendor.
2. SUMMARY
The City has used a desktop version of Progressive Solutions Business License software for 14 years. Progressive Solutions Inc. (PSI) no longer provides upgrades or updates to the desktop version; however, the web version of the software is not as robust. Staff recommends converting to Business License and Tax Services Software (HdL Prime) from Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates as a cost-effective long-term solution.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the three-year agreement with Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) in the amount of $143,722 for Business License and Tax Services Software and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement is $143,722 and will be funded through General Fund (100).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
b: Analyze future fiscal needs and potential revenue opportunities.
Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
c: Enhance technology to improve public accessibility to information and services.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
A Business License is required for any business owner, business entity, self-employed person or business organization based in or operating from Orange. This includes home based businesses, independent contractors, home offices, and others, yielding an average annual revenue of $3.5 million. The Business License division ensures that businesses pay their required tax and comply with the City’s business tax ordinance.
For 14 years the City has contracted with Progressive Solutions Inc., (PSI), a software to manage records of past and current business applications and activity, including, annual renewals, tax payments, delinquencies, sellers permits, and state licenses. New applications and business license City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 3

payments, delinquencies, sellers permits, and state licenses. New applications and business license renewals can be handled online, by mail or in person.
Due to ongoing challenges with the current business license software, staff conducted a review of products available from PSI, HdL, and Tyler Technologies’ EDEN Enterprise Resource Planning system which the City uses for financial applications. Qualities such as ease of use for both internal and external customers, system response time, and integration with internal systems were measured. Additional features such as hosted platforms, familiarity with Short Term Rental and Hotel Permits, and cost effectiveness were also considered.
The City has a data exchange agreement with the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) to provide information that allows us to research accounts requiring a business license in Orange. In addition, the City currently has an existing sales tax consulting agreement with HdL which provides us with data sources to find unlicensed businesses.
After careful review of the options and considering long-term benefits, staff recommends converting to the HdL Prime Business License and Tax Services Software from Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) as a single source vendor to manage the business license function. No other vendor provided the long term solutions needed, including the integration with the Franchise Tax Board, as well as the variety of options and benefits such as:
· Discovery and compliance services that provide additional revenue by maximizing existing revenue streams
· Provide updates on trends and legislation that could impact the City’s revenue streams · Cloud based - Software Hosting Services - This will offload most IT concerns such as system and hardware upgrades, database management, and disaster recovery. · Approval process that works with other departments, streamlining approvals required from the Police, Fire, Planning, or Building departments to approve and issue a business license · Connect Short Term Rental (STR) permits to Business License in one database · Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) module to allow better tracking for TOT funds and STR TOT funds
· Implement optional resources to fill out new applications - iPads or a central desktop in the lobby. Eliminates double entry and errors can be addressed at the time of application instead of asking for more information and delaying the issuance of a business license · Offer an online PCI-compliant gateway
HdL currently provides business license services to several surrounding cities such as Brea, Fullerton, Fountain Valley, and Tustin.
Recurring costs
The cost for this software use and hosting fee portion of this agreement is $19,040 per year, with an annual CPI increase, the total cost of which is not to exceed $63,022.
Implementation costs
The proposed agreement has a one-time implementation cost of $80,700, the payment of which will City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 2 of 3

Item #: 3.6. 3/14/2023 File #: 23-0020
The proposed agreement has a one-time implementation cost of $80,700, the payment of which will be earned by engaging HdL to perform Discovery and Compliance services using their many available sources to discover new unlicensed businesses and bring them into compliance. The agreement is structured for HdL to apply 100% of the collected funds to the implementation cost, with an estimated recovery time of two years. Beginning year three of the agreement, any remaining implementation costs which have not been paid by HdL Compliance Services revenue will be paid by the City.
Once the implementation threshold of $80,700 has been met, HdL will continue their recovery efforts, retaining 40% of the recovered funds, with the anticipated amount of $40,000 (60%) of additional revenue per year remitted to the City.
Based on the benefits of HdL’smore robust system, additional business license resources, increased annual revenue, and comparable cost to the current system, staff recommends the three-year agreement with HdL for Business License and Tax Services Software as a single source vendor.

FROM: Susan Galvan, Assistant City Manager
1. SUBJECT
Agreement with Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) for Business License and Tax Services Software as a single source vendor.
2. SUMMARY
The City has used a desktop version of Progressive Solutions Business License software for 14 years. Progressive Solutions Inc. (PSI) no longer provides upgrades or updates to the desktop version; however, the web version of the software is not as robust. Staff recommends converting to Business License and Tax Services Software (HdL Prime) from Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates as a cost-effective long-term solution.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the three-year agreement with Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) in the amount of $143,722 for Business License and Tax Services Software and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement is $143,722 and will be funded through General Fund (100).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 2: Be a fiscally healthy community
b: Analyze future fiscal needs and potential revenue opportunities.
Goal 4: Provide outstanding public service
c: Enhance technology to improve public accessibility to information and services.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
A Business License is required for any business owner, business entity, self-employed person or business organization based in or operating from Orange. This includes home based businesses, independent contractors, home offices, and others, yielding an average annual revenue of $3.5 million. The Business License division ensures that businesses pay their required tax and comply with the City’s business tax ordinance.
For 14 years the City has contracted with Progressive Solutions Inc., (PSI), a software to manage records of past and current business applications and activity, including, annual renewals, tax payments, delinquencies, sellers permits, and state licenses. New applications and business license City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 3

payments, delinquencies, sellers permits, and state licenses. New applications and business license renewals can be handled online, by mail or in person.
Due to ongoing challenges with the current business license software, staff conducted a review of products available from PSI, HdL, and Tyler Technologies’ EDEN Enterprise Resource Planning system which the City uses for financial applications. Qualities such as ease of use for both internal and external customers, system response time, and integration with internal systems were measured. Additional features such as hosted platforms, familiarity with Short Term Rental and Hotel Permits, and cost effectiveness were also considered.
The City has a data exchange agreement with the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) to provide information that allows us to research accounts requiring a business license in Orange. In addition, the City currently has an existing sales tax consulting agreement with HdL which provides us with data sources to find unlicensed businesses.
After careful review of the options and considering long-term benefits, staff recommends converting to the HdL Prime Business License and Tax Services Software from Hinderliter De Llamas & Associates (HdL) as a single source vendor to manage the business license function. No other vendor provided the long term solutions needed, including the integration with the Franchise Tax Board, as well as the variety of options and benefits such as:
· Discovery and compliance services that provide additional revenue by maximizing existing revenue streams
· Provide updates on trends and legislation that could impact the City’s revenue streams · Cloud based - Software Hosting Services - This will offload most IT concerns such as system and hardware upgrades, database management, and disaster recovery. · Approval process that works with other departments, streamlining approvals required from the Police, Fire, Planning, or Building departments to approve and issue a business license · Connect Short Term Rental (STR) permits to Business License in one database · Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) module to allow better tracking for TOT funds and STR TOT funds
· Implement optional resources to fill out new applications - iPads or a central desktop in the lobby. Eliminates double entry and errors can be addressed at the time of application instead of asking for more information and delaying the issuance of a business license · Offer an online PCI-compliant gateway
HdL currently provides business license services to several surrounding cities such as Brea, Fullerton, Fountain Valley, and Tustin.
Recurring costs
The cost for this software use and hosting fee portion of this agreement is $19,040 per year, with an annual CPI increase, the total cost of which is not to exceed $63,022.
Implementation costs
The proposed agreement has a one-time implementation cost of $80,700, the payment of which will City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 2 of 3

The proposed agreement has a one-time implementation cost of $80,700, the payment of which will be earned by engaging HdL to perform Discovery and Compliance services using their many available sources to discover new unlicensed businesses and bring them into compliance. The agreement is structured for HdL to apply 100% of the collected funds to the implementation cost, with an estimated recovery time of two years. Beginning year three of the agreement, any remaining implementation costs which have not been paid by HdL Compliance Services revenue will be paid by the City.
Once the implementation threshold of $80,700 has been met, HdL will continue their recovery efforts, retaining 40% of the recovered funds, with the anticipated amount of $40,000 (60%) of additional revenue per year remitted to the City.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
Consultant will provide the following Services relative to Consultant’s local tax software solution.
1. Software Implementation
1.1. Consultant's responsibilities
1.1.1. Project manager - Consultant will provide a project manager (PM) to guide the software implementation process. The primary responsibility for the Consultant PM is to ensure successful and timely completion of each step of the software implementation schedule. The Consultant PM will work closely with the Client's designated project manager to define the software implementation schedule, identify Client needs and configure the software accordingly, validate the data conversion, and provide user training.
1.1.2. IT support - Consultant will provide a dedicated IT staff member to provide IT support during the software implementation process.
1.1.3. Management support - Consultant will assist the Client in evaluating current policies and procedures in order to enhance operational efficiency. This may include suggestions to redesign forms/reports, implement new processes, or adopt new strategies for improving communication with the business community and other Client departments.
1.1.4. Training - Consultant will provide software training for Client us ers as defined in the fees schedule. The timing, size and participants of each training session will be determined by the Consultant’s and Client’s PMs.
1.1.5. Software documentation - Consultant will provide Client with access to digital copies of available software documentation. The Client may use the software documentation materials as needed for internal use only. The software documentation contains proprietary and confidential information, and as such is bound by the confidentiality portion of this agreement. The software documentation may not in any circumstances be distributed to any 3 rd party or any individual that is not a current Client staff member responsible for using or maintaining the software.
1.2. Client's responsibilities
1.2.1. Project manager - Client will designate a staff member to serve as the Client's project manager (PM). This individual must be intimately involved in the daily busi ness processes which the software will automate, and be empowered to make, or quickly secure from management, decisions required for the configuration and implementation of the software. The primary responsibility for the Client PM is to ensure that all Client responsibilities during the software implementation process are met according to the agreed upon software implementation schedule.
The Client PM will be instrumental in the successful implementation of the software; working closely with the Consultant PM to verify data conversion, review and approve reports, establish business rules, and confirm configuration and behavior of the software.
1.2.2. IT support - Client will designate an IT staff member to work with Consultant staff throughout the software implementation process. This individual must be knowledgeable about the Client's computing environment and be authorized to access any equipment or services required for proper access to and operation of the software.
1.3. Data Conversion - Consultant will convert the Client’s existing data as provided by Client . Client agrees to provide its current data in a format agreed upon by Consultant and Client. Acceptable formats include Microsoft SQL Server backup file, Excel, Access, and ASCII delimited text file. 209
1211802.2 Page 2 of 10
Client will provide all available documentation to assist with identifying the contents of the data files, including but not limited to file layout documentation, database schema, and screenshots from five (5) sample accounts. Client will provide the data a minimum of two times during the conversion process. Client understands that the second (and any subsequent) data must be provided in the same format and layout as the first data set. Any inconsistencies between the first and final data sets will result in a delayed installation date and additional charges for conversion.
1.4. Schedule – The default timeline for software implementation (including “Go Live”) is approximately 60 days from receipt of initial discovery materials . When the Agreement is signed by all parties, Consultant will immediately work with the Client to establish a defined implementation schedule which is agreeable to both Client and Consultant.
2. Software Hosting Services – Consultant’s hosting services offload the majority of IT concerns to Consultant’s hosting team; including system upgrades, hardware and software maintenance, database management, and disaster recovery. Client will be responsible for maintaining its workstations and a reliable internet connection. Consultant will handle the rest. Website functionality will be hosted using a Client specific sub-domain on Consultant’s special purpose hdlgov.com domain.
2.1. Workstation Specifications – Workstations will access the software through a remote application session with Consultant’s hosting service. All workstations require 4+GB Memory, 1280x1024 screen resolution, and MS Windows 7/8/10 operating system.

3.2.2. Severity Level 2 – a problem has been encountered that does not prevent use of the software, but the software is not operating correctly.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
In 2021, the City entered into a three year agreement with Lance, Soll, Lunghard, LLP (LSL) for Financial Auditing services. The Finance Department recently requested a quote for services to assist with the year-end compilation and printing of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and State Controllers Report. LSL provided a proposal for the preparation, word processing, and printing of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, in accordance with the requirements and standards of the Government Finance Officers Association, and the preparation City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

requirements and standards of the Government Finance Officers Association, and the preparation and submission of the City’s Annual Financial Transactions Report required by the State of California’sState Controller’sOffice. The quoted amount for these additional services is $15,100 per year.
The Finance department currently hires a retired employee on temporary assignment to complete the ACFR report at an estimated total cost of $19,000, for 248.5 staff hours. Printing of the report is outsourced at a cost of $1,500. In FY22, the costs to the City for the preparation and printing of the ACFR totaled $20,500. LSL providing these services will result in an estimated cost savings of $5,400 per year.
In addition to cost savings, by having the auditing firm prepare the financial reports directly, the cumbersome process of cross-referencing information and time delays due to scheduling conflicts is eliminated. As a result, the process of financial reports preparation will be streamlined and conducted more efficiently, with fewer errors.
The original agreement term was for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2021, 2022, and 2023, with the option to extend the agreement for two additional terms of one year each. Staff is recommending a one-year extension and the additional services to be provided.

In 2021, the City entered into a three year agreement with Lance, Soll, Lunghard, LLP (LSL) for Financial Auditing services. The Finance Department recently requested a quote for services to assist with the year-end compilation and printing of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and State Controllers Report. LSL provided a proposal for the preparation, word processing, and printing of the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, in accordance with the requirements and standards of the Government Finance Officers Association, and the preparation City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

requirements and standards of the Government Finance Officers Association, and the preparation and submission of the City’s Annual Financial Transactions Report required by the State of California’sState Controller’sOffice. The quoted amount for these additional services is $15,100 per year.
The Finance department currently hires a retired employee on temporary assignment to complete the ACFR report at an estimated total cost of $19,000, for 248.5 staff hours. Printing of the report is outsourced at a cost of $1,500. In FY22, the costs to the City for the preparation and printing of the ACFR totaled $20,500. LSL providing these services will result in an estimated cost savings of $5,400 per year.
In addition to cost savings, by having the auditing firm prepare the financial reports directly, the cumbersome process of cross-referencing information and time delays due to scheduling conflicts is eliminated. As a result, the process of financial reports preparation will be streamlined and conducted more efficiently, with fewer errors.
The original agreement term was for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2021, 2022, and 2023, with the option to extend the agreement for two additional terms of one year each. Staff is recommending a one-year extension and the additional services to be provided.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Orange Housing Development Corporation (OHDC) is a non-profit organization established in 1990 that provides quality housing for low-income families and senior citizens. OHDC will, on occasion, also serve as a Community Housing Development Organization (CHDO) for third party affordable housing developers. A CHDO is a private non-profit, community-based service organization that qualifies for special set-aside funding from the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) through the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). A CHDO can be the owner, developer, or sponsor of a housing project.
OHDC approached the City with a proposal for early repayment of six of 12 current outstanding loans that it has with the City in exchange for 10% loan forgiveness on the balance of each of the six loans.
Of the six loans proposed for early repayment, three were funded with HOME funds and three were funded with former Redevelopment Agency set-aside housing funds.
The loans proposed for early repayment are as follows:

Affordable housing loans are usually repaid over a 55-year period and based on a percentage of residual receipts, or a small percentage of the revenue a project generates after all liabilities have been paid. The early repayment of these loans would benefit the City by making the housing funds available years sooner so that they can be re-invested in new affordable housing projects.

FROM: Christopher Cash, Public Works Director
1. SUBJECT
Grant a utility easement to Southern California Edison on City of Orange property to facilitate the installation of support wire for a replacement electrical pole.
2. SUMMARY
The granting of this easement for utility purposes on City owned property will provide the necessary support for an electrical pole serving the Main Library and adjacent residential areas.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize the granting of a utility easement on City property in favor of Southern California Edison and authorize the Mayor to execute the easement deed from the City to Southern California Edison.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1. Provide for a safe community
d. Assure the development of the City occurs in a fashion that maximizes public safety.
Goal 2. Be a fiscally healthy community
e. Create an environment to attract, retain and expand economic opportunities.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Southern California Edison (SCE) has recently tested electrical poles in the City of Orange. It has been determined that the existing electrical pole (Pole No. 4470179E), which serves both the Main Library and the adjacent residences, is deteriorated and in need of replacement. The pole will be replaced in the same location. Once replaced, SCE has determined that the new pole will require stabilization in the form of a support wire, which would anchor approximately 10 feet southerly of the pole location.
The support wire will require an easement from the City of Orange. Staff recommends the granting of a utility easement to SCE to allow for the required stabilization of the electrical pole.
The City Council action is to authorize the granting of a utility easement on City property in favor of SCE, and to authorize the Mayor to execute the easement deed from the City to Southern California City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City consolidates its General Municipal Election with the County of Orange Board of Supervisors Statewide Election. For planning purposes, the Orange County Registrar of Voters (ROV) provides the City with an estimate based upon a projection of total jurisdictional participation and an average cost per voter. The total jurisdictional participation is calculated by taking the current number of registered voters and projecting a 10% increase in voter registration. In addition, effective in 2019, Assembly Bill 216 requires prepaid postage to be included on all vote by mail return envelopes.
For the November 2022 election, the ROV estimated between $1.10 and $1.40 per voter. Based on this estimate, provided to the City in May 2021, the City budgeted $175,000 to cover the consolidation with the County and other election expenses such as required publishing and candidate City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

1. SUBJECT
Approval of plans and specifications for Well 28 Equipping and Public Pocket Park Construction Project (W-698) and authorization to advertise for bids.
2. SUMMARY
Plans and specifications have been completed for Well 28 Equipping and Public Pocket Park Construction Project. The project is ready to be advertised for bids. The estimated construction cost is $6,553,000.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the plans and specifications and authorize advertising for Bid No. 22-23.33.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this multi-year project will be funded in Well 28 Construction (18120) through Water Fund (600).
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
Well 28 is located at 225 W. Maple Street, in the Old Towne area of the City of Orange. This project is being built in two construction phases. Phase One, which included drilling of the well, was successfully completed in March 2022 for a cost of $1,561,090. Phase Two, for which we are requesting authorization to bid, encompasses equipping of the well with the necessary pumping and water treatment equipment and construction of a public pocket park that will surround the perimeter of the facility.
The scope of work for well equipping includes minor well rehabilitation, construction of electrical and chemical buildings, installation of a new well pump, motor, electrical transformer and panels, a sound enclosure, PFAS treatment system, piping, and other appurtenances. The pocket public park construction will include construction of CMU block screen walls with decorative metal trellis matching the surrounding existing architectural scheme, monument sign, picnic tables, shade City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

structures, landscaping, irrigation, and lighting.
The Well 28 project is eligible to receive reimbursement funding as part of the Santa Ana River Conservation and Conjunctive Use Program (SARCCUP) as well as the PFAS Treatment program initiated by the Orange County Water District (OCWD). SARCCUP is a watershed-scale collaborative program designed to improve the Santa Ana River watershed’swater supply resiliency and reliability by increasing available dry-year yield from local groundwater basins. This program will underwrite a portion of the construction costs up to $1,575,140. OCWD is in the process of reviewing the first reimbursement request for Phase 1 in the amount of $780,544.59. The City will request the remaining portion of the reimbursement once the well is up and running (May 2025).
Reimbursement for PFAS Treatment design and installation is 100% of the actual design and construction costs, currently estimated at $1,658,700. We are planning to submit for reimbursement of the $158,700 design cost this June.
The total engineering estimate for the construction phase of the project is $6,553,000. Construction is expected to begin in August 2023 and completed by May 2025.
In 2021, the City Council had adopted the project’sMitigated Negative Declaration No. 1861-18, which was prepared to evaluate the physical environmental impacts of the project in conformance with the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per State CEQA Guidelines Section 15070 and in conformance with the Local CEQA Guidelines. The Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) finds that the project will have less than significant impacts to the environment, with the implementation of standard conditions and mitigation measures related to unanticipated archeological, human remains, paleontological, or tribal cultural resource finds.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City of Orange Public Library & History Center, located at 407 E. Chapman Avenue, was originally built as the “Main”Library in 1961 and consisted of approximately 17,000 square feet. In 1998, the Main Library was re-modeled, which included modifications to the heating, ventilation and cooling (HVAC) system such as reconfiguring ductwork and replacement of the air handling and condensing units with a “Seasons4”package system. In 2007, the Main Library was expanded to the 45,000 square feet space as it exists today. During this expansion, the building’sHVAC system was City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

Item #: 3.15. 3/14/2023 File #: 23-0168
modified and expanded as well.
The “Seasons4”package system that was installed in 1998 consists of a custom built, multi-zone air handler with evaporator coil and gas-fire heating section, and an air-cooled condensing unit, configured in 2 modules and located in the mechanical room on the mezzanine level of the original building. As this unit is nearing the end of its service life, its performance has become inefficient and replacement parts are becoming difficult to locate and procure. As a result, controlling and maintaining comfortable interior temperatures for the library patrons and staff is becoming more and more difficult to achieve.
The City of Orange enrolled in the Southern California Regional Engergy Network (SoCalREN) in March 2014 to take advantage of no-cost services available to help the agency move energy efficiency projects from conception to completion. SoCalREN performed an audit for the Main Library on February 24, 2020. They summarized that the replacement of the HVAC unit will net significant savings over time and recommended the upgrade. Replacement of this unit was also included in the recommendations of the Facilities Condition Assessment as well. Funding for this project reflects projected energy savings related to an Energy Coalition Grant. Staff is pursuing the grant and expects to be awarded approximately $200,000. The $200,000, once received, will reimburse the City’s expenditure from Fund 500.
On September 25, 2019, the City of Orange entered into an agreement with Gevork Consulting Engineering, Inc. for the creation of a design for the HVAC replacement and upgrade of the transformer. Gevork Consulting Engineering, Inc has completed the preparation of plans and specifications. The Public Works Department has assembled the bid document, and the project is ready to be advertised. Specifications and cost estimates are available for review in the Public Works Department.
The total cost is estimated at $550,000, 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.
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 May 2023 and is expected to be completed by October 2023.

1. SUBJECT
Authorize increase to blanket purchase order for Winchester Law Enforcement Ammunition from Dooley Enterprises, Inc. as a sole source vendor.
2. SUMMARY
The cost to purchase ammunition has exceeded the original budgeted amount and requires an increase to the existing purchase order in the amount of $55,000 for an overall purchase order total of $143,000.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve the increase to blanket purchase order for ammunition from Dooley’sEnterprise, Inc. in the amount of $55,000 for an overall purchase order total of $143,000.
2. Authorize the appropriation of $55,000 from the General Fund unreserved fund balance to expenditure account number 100.4011.53540.00000, General Fund - Ammunition.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for the increase to the blanket purchase order is $55,000, an overall purchase order total of $143,000, and will be funded through General Fund (100).
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
In May 2022, the City Council authorized the purchase of Winchester Law Enforcement ammunition from Dooley Enterprise, Inc. (Dooley’s)in the amount of $88,000 for Fiscal Year 2022-2023. The cost to purchase ammunition has exceeded the original budgeted amount and requires a change order.
The Police Department’sincreased requirements for ammunition over the last year is largely the result of increased weapons training requirements needed to support the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) requirements and Department Policy. To address ongoing recruiting efforts the number of Police Academy Trainees (PAT) attending the academy and frequency of each academy has increased significantly. The department is averaging 20 PATs per fiscal year and will provide the academy with approximately 2,500 rounds per trainee which equates to 50,000 rounds per year. Upon graduating from the academy, all probationary officers who carry a City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

294
Item #: 3.19. 3/14/2023 File #: 23-0117
to 50,000 rounds per year. Upon graduating from the academy, all probationary officers who carry a handgun while on-duty are required to complete monthly firearms qualifications. Monthly qualifications are reduced to quarterly qualifications once probationary officers complete their probation. The department currently has approximately 25 officers in a probationary status. The department also requires that officers assigned to a special unit achieve and maintain greater proficiency in the use of specified weapons resulting in additional training. With regards to duty assault rifles, the Police Department must adhere to the POST Perishable Skills/Communications Requirement for POST Continuing Professional Training. The POST Perishable Skills Program (PSP) was implemented in 2002 and was established to certify quality law enforcement training and to ensure delivery of that training. In 2021, the PSP extended the 4-hour tactical firearms course outline to an 8-hour block which doubled the amount of ammunition per officer from 275 rounds to 550 rounds.
Due to increased costs in ammunition and increased weapons training requirements, remaining ammunition expenses exceed the annual budget amount of $88,000 and requires approval of a change order. The original purchase order (115564) amount was $88,000. This change order represents an increase of 63% or $55,000 bringing the final purchase order amount to $143,000.
Dooley’s of Anaheim, California, is the only authorized California distributor for this brand. The Council has previously authorized Dooley’s as a sole source vendor and this sole source specification is a continuation of that policy.

Authorize continued rental services for a mobile laundry facility with Mobile Concepts, Inc. dba U.S.

2. SUMMARY
Request for City Council to authorize an increase of $16,200 to an existing purchase order with Mobile Concepts, Inc. dba U.S. Mobile Kitchens bringing the total purchase order amount to $107,389.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve an increase to a blanket purchase order for a total of $107,389 with Mobile Concepts, Inc. dba U.S. Mobile Kitchens for core service facility rentals.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this purchase order is $107,389 and will be funded through the Community Development Block Grant (310).
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
In preparation of Mary’sKitchen vacating the property located at 517 W. Struck, the City developed and implemented a plan to provide services for one year for its unhoused community. In collaboration with local nonprofit organizations, specifically the HUB OC and Abound Food Care, food services, mail pick-up, showers, restroom facilities, and laundry services have been provided on site.
In June 2022, the City Council approved a purchase order (PO) in the amount of $83,000 with Mobile Concepts, Inc. dba U.S. Mobile Kitchens (U.S. Mobile Kitchens) to rent a laundry trailer to provide laundry services. At the time of approval, the City was offering all services on Struck Ave. and not on the 517 W. Struck property. Additionally, the original PO amount was approved based on a monthly billing cycle.
When planning to move off the street and onto the 517 W. Struck location, staff worked with U.S.
Mobile Kitchens to secure a mobile kitchen rental for food services. However, this option proved to be an inadequate solution to the food requirements as site preparation began and the City faced City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 2

an inadequate solution to the food requirements as site preparation began and the City faced unforeseen conditions. Therefore, staff canceled the kitchen rental and incurred a cost of $8,189 due to the cancellation. In December 2022 the City Manager approved a change order to cover the cancellation fee, bringing the PO total to $91,189.
Beyond the incurred cost of the trailer cancellation, additional expenses are anticipated due the vendor’sbilling cycle. Rather than billing on a monthly basis, the vendor bills on a weekly basis. The original PO accounted for 48 weeks of billing (12 months x 4 weeks); however, for one full year of services, the PO needs to account for 52 weeks of service. Therefore, as City Manager signing approval has been exhausted, staff is requesting that the City Council approve an additional $16,200 be added to the PO to complete a full year of service, plus an additional month of services in the event that the laundry trailer is required on site longer. Should that not happen, the City would not expend these funds. Staff is requesting the City Council approve an additional $16,200 to the existing PO, bringing the total blanket PO amount to $107,389.
At its April 12, 2022, meeting, the City Council appropriated $746,884.76 in Community Development Block Grant (310) funding for the transition plan. This expense will be funded through this appropriation.

The original PO accounted for 48 weeks of billing (12 months x 4 weeks); however, for one full year of services, the PO needs to account for 52 weeks of service. Therefore, as City Manager signing approval has been exhausted, staff is requesting that the City Council approve an additional $16,200 be added to the PO to complete a full year of service, plus an additional month of services in the event that the laundry trailer is required on site longer. Should that not happen, the City would not expend these funds. Staff is requesting the City Council approve an additional $16,200 to the existing PO, bringing the total blanket PO amount to $107,389.
At its April 12, 2022, meeting, the City Council appropriated $746,884.76 in Community Development Block Grant (310) funding for the transition plan. This expense will be funded through this appropriation.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council denies Appeal No. 0561-22 and approves Design Review No. 5077-22 to construct a new 1,102 sq. ft. duplex with an attached 227 sq. ft. garage located at 529 S. Grand Street. The denial of the Appeal and approval of the project are based on the following findings:
SECTION 1 – FINDINGS
Design Review
1. In the Old Towne Historic District, the proposed work conforms to the prescriptive standards and design criteria referenced and/or recommended by the DRC or other reviewing body for the project (OMC 17.10.070.G.1).
306
2 The proposed project is in conformance with the Historic Preservation Design Standards for Old Towne, which are the prescriptive design criteria for projects within the Old Towne Historic District. The second unit is compatible with the mass, scale, and setbacks of the existing building, and the roof forms are consistent with the surrounding houses in the neighborhood. The second unit would be minimally visible from the street and will not affect the appearance of the historic district. Traditional building materials in the windows are used and compatible with the historic district. The new unit is subtly differentiated from the original primary residence by its slab on grade construction, fiber cement siding, and vertical gable roof vent detail.
2. In any National Register Historic District, the proposed work complies with the Secretary of the Interior’s standards and guidelines (OMC 17.10.070.G.2).
Projects located in the Old Towne Historic District must comply with the Historic Preservation Design Standards for Old Towne. As described above, the proposed work conforms with these design standards.
3. The project design upholds community aesthetics thr ough the use of an internally consistent, integrated design theme and is consistent with all adopted specific plans, applicable design standards, and their required findings (OMC 17.10.070.F.3).
Projects located in the Old Towne Historic District must comp ly with the Historic Preservation Design Standards for Old Towne. As described above, the proposed work conforms with these design standards. The architecture, scale and massing of the proposed unit facilitates the integration of the new unit with the ori ginal residence and overall site.
The roof forms, fenestration, and materials are also compatible with the historic residence and garage. The project is not located in a specific plan area.
There is no specific plan or applicable design standards applicable to this property.
4. For infill residential development, as specified in the City of Orange Infill Residential Design Guidelines, the new structure(s) or addition are compatible with the scale, massing, orientation, and articulation of the surrounding development and will preserve or enhance existing neighborhood character (OMC 17.10.070.G.4).
The new duplex unit is minimally visible from the street and is compatible with the scale of surrounding development. It is subordinate to the existing historic bu ilding and would continue to maintain a generally low FAR for the property compared to the adjacent buildings in the vicinity. The scale and massing of the structure, combined with the roof plan and fenestration are consistent with surrounding neighborhood character.
SECTION 2 – ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Categorical Exemption: The proposed project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per State CEQA Guidelines 15303 (Class 3 – New Construction), because it consists of construction of a new duplex residential unit result ing in a total number of units below the maximum allowable in the Low Medium Density Residential General Plan land use designation (6 -15 dwelling units per acre) and Duplex Residential (R -2-6) zoning district, and is in an area where public facilities and services are available.
307
3 SECTION 3– CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the following conditions are imposed with the recommendation of approval:
1. This project is approved as a precise plan. All work shall conform in substance and be maintained in general conformance with the plans (attached to the DRC staff report dated October 5, 2022 , and in the project case file), including modifications required by the conditions of approval, and as recommended for approval by the Design Review Committee. Any changes from the approved plans shall be subject to subsequent review and approval by the Design Review Committee.
2. After any application has been approved, if changes are proposed regarding the location or alteration of any use or structure, a changed plan may be submitted to the Community Development Director for approval.

3. The applicant agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend the City, its officers, agents and employees from any and all liability or claims that may be brought against the City arising out of its approval of this permit, save and except that caus ed by the City’s active negligence.
4. The applicant shall comply with all federal, state, and local laws, including all City regulations. Violation of any of those laws in connection with the use may be cause for revocation of this permit.
5. The final approved conditions of approval shall be reprinted on the first or second page of the construction documents when submitting to the Building Division for the plan check process.
6. Construction permits shall be obtained for all future construction work, as required by the City of Orange, Public Works Department’s Building Division. Failure to obtain the required building permits will be cause for revocation of this permit.

1. SUBJECT
Request for permit parking on both sides of Sycamore Avenue between Rancho Santiago Boulevard and Richard Street. Resolution No. 11439.
2. SUMMARY
Sycamore Avenue between Rancho Santiago Boulevard and Richard Street meets the City’s requirements for permit parking implementation. Permit parking has been approved by the City Traffic Commission. If the City Council grants final approval, it would be designated as permit parking Area “Z.”
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve permit parking on both sides of Sycamore Avenue between Rancho Santiago Boulevard and Richard Street.
2. Adopt Resolution No. 11439. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Orange rescinding Resolution No. 11422 and adopting a revised master resolution of permit parking areas within the City of Orange.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for the project is $1,000 and will be funded in Minor Traffic Control Devices (16302) through Traffic Improvement 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
The City’s Neighborhood Permit Parking Program (NPPP) provides a mechanism for protecting residential streets from commercial parking overflow. Under the City’sNPPP guidelines, a request for permit parking may be initiated by a resident in an affected neighborhood.
A resident of Sycamore Avenue submitted a request to initiate the process for permit parking on a total of five streets in the neighborhood (as depicted in the Area Map attached): Sycamore Avenue, Christine Street, Silverleaf Avenue, Richard Street and Rancho Santiago Boulevard. In accordance with NPPP procedures, staff performed an initial screening of the proposed study area to determine City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 1 of 3

Item #: 7.1. 3/14/2023 File #: 23-0160
the following:
1. Whether a street is eligible to be considered for permit parking; and
2. If so, does said street lie within a city-defined permit parking area (Area “A”or any of the five- permit parking “opportunity areas”) with streamlined procedures.
Because each of the above streets is eligible for permit parking and outside of a city-defined permit parking area, minimum levels of parking occupancy and property owner support must be met in order to recommend permit parking. Both are discussed below.
Parking Occupancy
Staff mapped and counted the number of legal parking spaces for each of the five streets in the study area. The proponent provided staff with the days and times when parking demand in the neighborhood was believed to be at its highest. Staff then conducted the parking observations during those reported hours. Per the City’s adopted NPPP, a street parking occupancy rate of 75% is required to qualify for permit parking. Sycamore Avenue was the only street in the neighborhood to exceed the 75% threshold with an average parking occupancy of 86%. Christine Street (28%), Richard Street (58%) Silverleaf Avenue (42%) and Rancho Santiago Boulevard (58%) each failed to meet the 75% threshold.
Petition Results
Because parking occupancy exceeded the minimum 75% threshold only on Sycamore Avenue, a petition was circulated to those residents on both sides of the street (the other four streets were excluded because occupancy requirements were not satisfied). The table below shows the results of the neighborhood polling.
Affected Streets Households In Favor Households OpposedUnreturned Sycamore Ave. 9 81.8% 0 0% 2 18.2%
The final results of the petition indicate that 82% of property owners on Sycamore Avenue are in favor of the permit parking program, exceeding the minimum 75% required.
CTC Approval
Sycamore Avenue has satisfied all of the NPPP requirements for permit parking. The proposal was presented to and approved by the City Traffic Commission (CTC) at their February regular meeting.
During the meeting, the CTC received input from several residents, most of whom were generally or conditionally supportive of permit parking in the neighborhood. Some residents from nearby Richard Street did inquire as to why their street was not included in the petition process, to which staff explained there was insufficient parking demand at this time. Said residents were then informed that the current NPPP guidelines contain a spillover relief provision that allows for affected property owners on adjacent streets to request permit parking at no fee within one year of permit parking being implemented on Sycamore Avenue (parking occupancy, petition thresholds, and other program requirements in effect at the time would apply.)
Summary
Based on the above, staff recommends approving permit parking on both sides of Sycamore Avenue between Rancho Santiago Boulevard and Richard Street. This would be designated as Area “Z”, City of Orange Printed on 3/9/2023Page 2 of 3

between Rancho Santiago Boulevard and Richard Street. This would be designated as Area “Z”, which would be a stand-alone permit parking area.
If approved for implementation, the Orange Police Department will issue the permits for eligible households. While participation in the permit program is voluntary, any vehicle parked on the street without a permit would be subject to citation.
