Item #: 3.2. 4/25/2023 File #: 22-0695

THRU: Tom Kisela, City Manager
FROM: Leslie Hardy, Community Services Director

1. SUBJECT
Award of contract to La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc. for park facility roof repairs at three park facility locations: La Veta, Olive, and Santiago Hills Parks and the City owned concession/restroom building located on city property, adjacent to Sycamore Elementary School; Bid No. 22-23.30.

2. SUMMARY
An evaluation of city-maintained park facilities in 2021 revealed that park building roofs at La Veta, Olive, and Santiago Hills Parks, and the city owned concession/restroom building located on city property, adjacent to Sycamore Elementary School (Sycamore Park) required reroofing to protect and preserve the structures. The City solicited bids to complete the reroofing and is recommending the City Council award a contract to La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc. to complete the project, which includes all roof preparation, roof replacement, and asbestos testing.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the contract to La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc. in the amount of $153,546, representing an original bid amount of $127,955, plus a 20 percent contingency of $25,591 for the Park Facility Roof Repairs project (20507) and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this contract is $153,546 and will be funded in Park Facility Roof Repairs project (20507) through Park Acquisition (Infill) (510).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community.
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

Goal 3: Enhance and promote quality of life in the community. a: Renovate, maintain, develop, and/or expand public use places and spaces.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Maintenance of park building roofs is critical to the overall preservation of the buildings. Most park building roofs are generally in good to fair condition due to ongoing replacement efforts over the last several years. In 2021, the City contracted with Bravo Roofing (Bravo) to assess park facility roofs.

City of Orange Printed on 4/20/2023Page 1 of 2
powered by Legistar™
15 Item #: 3.2. 4/25/2023 File #: 22-0695
Bravo found that reroofing was needed at the following locations:
· Picnic Pavilion at Olive Park
· Picnic Pavilion and Restroom Building at La Veta Park · Restroom Building at Santiago Hills Park
· Concession and Restroom Building at Sycamore Park
In addition, Bravo developed a biddable scope of work for the project based on the specification of each type of roof, which includes roof preparation, roof replacement, and asbestos testing.

Based on these evaluations, the City Council approved the Park Facility Roof Repairs project (20507) in Fiscal Year 2022- 2023. Staff issued a request for bids for the project, Bid 22-23.30, in February 2023 and five bids were received:

1. La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc., Rancho Cucamonga, CA $127,955

2. C.I. Services, Inc., Mission Viejo, CA $147,064

3. Danny Letner, Inc., Orange, CA $148,000

4. AME Builders, Inc., Pomona, CA $174,000

5. Bravo Roofing, Brea, CA $254,106
The lowest responsive and responsible bid is from La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc., for $127,955. Staff verified the qualifications of the vendor with references provided for similar projects and received positive responses.

The total amount for this contract is $153,546, which includes a 20 percent contingency of $25,591, as the evaluations were completed almost two years ago, and conditions may have worsened over time. In addition, other unknown conditions may be discovered after the current roofing is removed from each of the facilities. The cost for this project is included in the Park Facility Roof Repair project (20507) and will be funded through the Park Acquisition (Infill) Fund (510).

All work will be done with the intent to minimize disruption to regular programming or facility rentals. It may be necessary to restrict access to one or more facilities for specific dates, times, or durations for safety reasons.

2. SUMMARY
An evaluation of city-maintained park facilities in 2021 revealed that park building roofs at La Veta, Olive, and Santiago Hills Parks, and the city owned concession/restroom building located on city property, adjacent to Sycamore Elementary School (Sycamore Park) required reroofing to protect and preserve the structures.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the contract to La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc. in the amount of $153,546, representing an original bid amount of $127,955, plus a 20 percent contingency of $25,591 for the Park Facility Roof Repairs project (20507) and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community.
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public.

Goal 3: Enhance and promote quality of life in the community. a: Renovate, maintain, develop, and/or expand public use places and spaces.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Maintenance of park building roofs is critical to the overall preservation of the buildings. Most park building roofs are generally in good to fair condition due to ongoing replacement efforts over the last several years. In 2021, the City contracted with Bravo Roofing (Bravo) to assess park facility roofs.

17 Item #: 3.2. 4/25/2023 File #: 22-0695
Bravo found that reroofing was needed at the following locations:
· Picnic Pavilion at Olive Park
· Picnic Pavilion and Restroom Building at La Veta Park · Restroom Building at Santiago Hills Park
· Concession and Restroom Building at Sycamore Park
In addition, Bravo developed a biddable scope of work for the project based on the specification of each type of roof, which includes roof preparation, roof replacement, and asbestos testing.

Based on these evaluations, the City Council approved the Park Facility Roof Repairs project (20507) in Fiscal Year 2022- 2023. Staff issued a request for bids for the project, Bid 22-23.30, in February 2023 and five bids were received:

1. La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc., Rancho Cucamonga, CA $127,955

2. C.I. Services, Inc., Mission Viejo, CA $147,064

3. Danny Letner, Inc., Orange, CA $148,000

4. AME Builders, Inc., Pomona, CA $174,000

5. Bravo Roofing, Brea, CA $254,106
The lowest responsive and responsible bid is from La Rocque Better Roofs, Inc., for $127,955. Staff verified the qualifications of the vendor with references provided for similar projects and received positive responses.

The total amount for this contract is $153,546, which includes a 20 percent contingency of $25,591, as the evaluations were completed almost two years ago, and conditions may have worsened over time. In addition, other unknown conditions may be discovered after the current roofing is removed from each of the facilities. The cost for this project is included in the Park Facility Roof Repair project (20507) and will be funded through the Park Acquisition (Infill) Fund (510).

All work will be done with the intent to minimize disruption to regular programming or facility rentals. It may be necessary to restrict access to one or more facilities for specific dates, times, or durations for safety reasons.

(2) Within 24 hours after the bid opening, the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (3) The subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.
(d) Failure by a subcontractor to be registered to perform public work as required by subdivision (a) shall be grounds under Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code for the contractor, with the consent of the awarding authority, to substitute a subcontractor who is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 in place of the unregistered subcontractor.
(e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.

Page 4 of 13 ends

for each day the unregistered lower tier subcontractor performs work in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (2) The Labor Commissioner shall use the same standards specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1775 when determining the severity of the violation and what penalty to assess, and may waive the penalty for a first time violation that was unintentional and did not hinder the Labor Commissioner's ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the requirements of this chapter. (3) A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor shall not be liable for penalties assessed pursuant to paragraph (1) if the lower tier subcontractor's performance is in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 due to the revocation of a previously approved registration. (4) A subcontractor shall not be liable for any penalties assessed against a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor pursuant to paragraph (1).

Review of a civil wage and penalty assessmen t issued under this subdivision may be requested in accordance with the provisions of Section 1742 . The regulations of the Director of Industrial Relations, which govern proceedings for review of civil wage and penalty assessments and the withholding of contract payments under Article 1 (commencing with Section 1720) and Article 2 (commencing with Section 1770), shall apply. (j)(1) Where a contractor or subcontractor engages in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section, the Labor Commissioner shall issue and serve a stop order prohibiting the use of the unregistered contractor or the unregistered subcontractor on all public works until the unregistered contractor or unregistered subcontractor is registered. The stop order shall not apply to work by registered contractors or subcontractors on the public work.
(2) A stop order may be personally served upon the contractor or subcontractor by either of the following methods:
(A) Manual delivery of the order to the contractor or subcontractor personally.

(ii) If the contractor or subcontractor has no address on file with the Secretary of State or the Contractors' State License Board, the address of the site of the public work. (3) The stop order shall be effective immediately upon service and shall be subject to appeal by the party contracting with the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, by the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, or both. The appeal, hearing, and any further review of the hearing decision shall be governed by the procedures, time limits, and other requirements specified in subdivision (a) of Section 238.1. 34 Attachment No. 1

Page 5 of 13 ends

(k) Failure of a contractor or subcontractor, owner, director, officer, or managing agent of the contractor or subcontractor to observe a stop order issued and served upon him or her pursuant to subdivision (j) is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in county jail not exceeding 60 days or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or both.
(l) This section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, and any contract for public work entered into on or after April 1, 2015.

(ii) Whether the contractor or subcontractor has a prior record of failing to meet its prevailing wage obligations.
(B)(i) The penalty may not be less than forty dollars ($40) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, unless the failure of the contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rate of per diem wages was a good faith mistake and, if so, the error was promptly and voluntarily corrected when brought to the attention of the contractor or subcontractor.

(E) The difference between the prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the contractor or subcontractor, and the body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation that this section will be complied with. (b) If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime contractor of the project is not liable for any penalties under subdivision (a) unless the prime contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime contractor fails to comply wi th all of the following requirements:

Section 1777.5. Employment of registered apprentices; wages; standards; number; apprenticeable craft or trade; exemptions; contributions; compliance program

(a)(1) This chapter does not prevent the employment upon public works of properly registered apprentices who are active participants in an approved apprenticeship program. (2) For purposes of this chapter, “apprenticeship program” means a program under the jurisdiction of the California Apprenticeship Council established pursuant to Section 3070. (b)(1) Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.
(2) Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, when a contractor requests the dispatch of an apprentice pursuant to this section to perform work on a public works project and requires the apprentice to fill out an application or undergo testing, training, an examination, or other preemployment process as a condition of employment, the apprentice shall be paid for the time sp ent on the required preemployment activity, including travel time to and from the required activity, if any, at the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered. Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, a contractor is not required to compensate an apprentice for the time spent on preemployment activities if the apprentice is required to take a preemployment drug or alcohol test and he or she fails to pass that test.
(c) Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written 39 Attachment No. 1

Page 10 of 13 ends

apprentice agreements under Chap ter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. (d) If the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision , in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. “Apprenticeable craft or trade,” as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, “contractor” includes any subcontractor under a contractor who perform s any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).
(e) Before commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work.

The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this informa tion shall also be submitted to the awarding body, if requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months. (f) The apprenticeship program suppl ying apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities. (g) The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trad e on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates if the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards. However, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.
(h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The contractor shall empl oy apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. When an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Administrator 40 Attachment No. 1

Page 11 of 13 ends

of Apprenticeship, upon application of an apprent iceship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. (i) A contractor covered by this section who has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or who has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship stan dards, but in no event less than the 1 -to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).
(j) Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Administrator of Apprenticeship may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant to a participating contractor or contractor association a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent. (2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis.

TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ORANGE:

In compliance with the notice inviting bids, plans, specifications and other contract documents for the construction of Bid No. 22-23.30; Park Facility Roof Replacement the undersigned has carefully examined: the location of the proposed work, character, quality and quantity of work to be performed, conditions to be encountered, materials to be furnished and as to the requirements of the plans, specifications and other contract documents; agrees that submission of a proposal shall be considered prima facie evidence that the bidder has made such examination; and proposes to furnish all labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to complete the work in accordance with said plans, specifications and other contract documents at the following unit or lump sum prices set forth in the schedule.

Contractor agrees to commence the work provided within ten (10) days of the date herein above stated and to diligently prosecute completion of the work in the time period agreed to by and between the representatives of the parties.

The undersigned agrees that the foregoing estimate of quantities of work to be done and materials to be furnished are approximate only, being given as basis for the comparison of bids.

The undersigned agrees that the City will not be held responsible if any of the approximate quantities shown in the foregoing proposal shall be found incorrect, and shall not make any claim for damages or for loss of profits because of a difference between the quantities of the various classes of work as estimated and the work actually done. If any error, omission or mis-statement shall be discovered in the estimated quantities, it shall not invalidate this contract or release the undersigned from the execution and completion of the whole or part of the work herein specified, in accordance with the specifications and the plans herein mentioned and the prices herein agreed upon and fixed therefore, or excuse him from any of the obligations or liabilities hereunder, or entitle him to any damages or compensation otherwise than as provided for in this contract.

The undersigned agrees that the City shall have the right to increase or decrease the quantity of any bid item or portion of the work or to omit portions of the work as may be deemed necessary or expedient, and that the payment for incidental items of work not separately provided in the proposal shall be considered included in the price bid for other various items of work.

Accompanying this proposal is ($ )

NOTICE: Insert the words “Cash”, “Certified Check”, or “Bidder’s Bond”, as the case may be, in an amount equal to at least 10 percent of the total bid price, payable to City of Orange to guarantee that the bidder will, if awarded the contract, promptly execute such contact in accordance with the proposal and in the manner and form required by the contract documents, and will furnish good and sufficient bonds for the faithful performance of the same.

The undersigned deposits the above named security as a proposal guaranty and agrees that it shall be forfeited to the City of Orange as liquidated damages in case this proposal is withdrawn by the undersigned and the undersigned shall fail to execute a contract for doing said work and to furnish 54

good and sufficient bonds in the form set forth in the specifications and contract documents of the City, with surety satisfactory to the City within 15 days after the bidder has received written notice of the award of the contract; otherwise, said security shall be returned to the undersigned.

Bidder hereby declares in writing, under penalty of perjury that all employees who will be performing labor, maintenance, delivery, installation or repair, will be those who are legally entitled to live and work in the United States. Further, the bidder as employer agrees to provide documentary proof of
such eligibility (when requested by the City of any other authorized entity or agency).

Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The bi dder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item. In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount as the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price; (b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten, one hundred, etc., or one -tenth, or one -hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentage wise the unit price o r item total in the City of Orange Final Estimate of cost.

If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided.

Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement.

Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on lump sum items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total, the items total shall prevail.

The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the City of Orange, and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by the City of Orange, to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The decision of the City of Orange respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid, shall be final.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure, including a 15% contingency, for this contract is $69,000 and will be funded in Irrigation Booster Pump Replacement (20508) through Park Acquisition (Infill) (510).

The irrigation booster pump at El Camino Real Park assists in increasing water pressure and flow to the park's irrigation system. The existing pump is currently creating a water hammer effect, causing numerous mainline breaks and continuous repairs by Parks maintenance staff and contractors. Staff assessed the current booster pump and determined that it was failing and beyond repair. As such, the Irrigation Booster Pump Replacement project (20508) was approved as part of the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Capital Improvement Program. The project will replace the booster pump to ensure the irrigation system receives the proper water pressure and flow.

The lowest responsive and responsible bid is from Kormex Construction, Inc. in the amount of $60,000. Staff verified the qualifications of the vendor with references provided for similar projects and received positive responses.

The cost for this project is included in the Irrigation Booster Pump Replacement project (20508) and will be funded through the Park Acquisition (Infill) fund (510). The project is anticipated to be completed in early summer 2023.

(e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.

Section 1777.5. Employment of registered apprentices; wages; standards; number; apprenticeable craft or trade; exemptions; contributions; compliance program

(a)(1) This chapter does not prevent the employment upon public works of properly registered apprentices who are active participants in an approved apprenticeship program. (2) For purposes of this chapter, “apprenticeship program” means a program under the jurisdiction of the California Apprenticeship Council established pursuant to Section 3070. (b)(1) Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.
(2) Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, when a contractor requests the dispatch of an apprentice pursuant to this section to perform work on a public works project and requires the apprentice to fill out an application or undergo testing, training, an examination, or other preemployment process as a condition of employment, the apprentice shall be paid for the time sp ent on the required preemployment activity, including travel time to and from the required activity, if any, at the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered. Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, a contractor is not required to compensate an apprentice for the time spent on preemployment activities if the apprentice is required to take a preemployment drug or alcohol test and he or she fails to pass that test.
(c) Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written 115

Attachment No. 1

Page 10 of 13 ends

apprentice agreements under Chap ter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. (d) If the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision , in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. “Apprenticeable craft or trade,” as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, “contractor” includes any subcontractor under a contractor who perform s any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).
(e) Before commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work.

The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this informa tion shall also be submitted to the awarding body, if requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months. (f) The apprenticeship program suppl ying apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities. (g) The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trad e on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates if the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards. However, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.
(h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The contractor shall empl oy apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. When an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Administrator 116

Attachment No. 1

Page 11 of 13 ends

of Apprenticeship, upon application of an apprent iceship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. (i) A contractor covered by this section who has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or who has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship stan dards, but in no event less than the 1 -to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).
(j) Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Administrator of Apprenticeship may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant to a participating contractor or contractor association a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent. (2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis. (4) Assignment of an apprentic e to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
(l) If an exemption is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
(m)(1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in perform ing any of the work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council the same amount that the director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor may take as a credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the contractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work s project. The contractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. (2)(A) At the conclusion of the 2002 -03 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the California Apprenticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the council under this subdivision, less the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for administering this subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticeship programs for the purpose of training apprentices. The grant funds shall be distributed as follows:
117

Attachment No. 1

Page 12 of 13 ends

(i) If there is an approved multiemployer apprenticeship program serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, a grant to that program shall be made.
(ii) If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or trade and county for which the training contributions were made to the council, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices from that county registered in each program. (iii) All training contributions not distributed under clauses (i) and (ii) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for the administration a nd enforcement of apprenticeship and preapprenticeship standards and requirements under this code. (B) An apprenticeship program shall only be eligible to receive grant funds pursuant to this subdivision if the apprenticeship program agrees, prior to the receipt of any grant funds, to keep adequate records that document the expenditure of grant funds and to make all records available to the Department of Industrial Relations so that the Department of Industrial Relations is able to verify that grant funds w ere used s olely for training apprentices. For purposes of this subparagraph, adequate records include, but are not limited to, invoices, receipts, and canceled checks that account for the expenditure of grant funds. This subparagraph shall not be deemed to require an apprenticeship program to provide the Department of Industrial Relations with more documentation than is necessary to verify the appropriate expenditure of grant funds made pursuant to this subdivision.
(C) The Department of Industrial Relations shall verify that grants made pursuant to this subdivision are used solely to fund training apprentices. If an apprenticeship program is unable to demonstrate how grant funds are expended or if an apprenticeship program is found to be using grant funds for purposes other than training apprentices, then the apprenticeship program shall not be eligible to receive any future grant pursuant to this subdivision and the Department of Industrial Relations may initiate the process to rescind the registr ation of the apprenticeship program.
(3) All training contributions received pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, all moneys in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund shall be used for the purpose of carrying out this subdivision and to pay the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations. (n) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserte d in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section. The stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for all apprenticeable occupations with the prime contractor.
(o) This section does not apply to contracts of general contractors or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor when the contracts of general contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). (p) An awarding body that implements an approved labor compliance program in accordance with subdivision (b) of Section 1771.5 may, with the approval of the director, assist in the enforcement of this section under the terms and conditions prescribed by the director.

Section 1813. Forfeiture for violations; contract stipulation; report of violations

The contractor or subcontractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit twenty- five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in the execution of 118

the contract by the respective contractor or subcontractor for each calendar day during which the worker is required or permitted to work more than 8 hours in any one calendar day and 40 hours in any one calendar week in violation of the provisions of this article. In awarding any contract for public work, the awarding body shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation to this effect. The awarding body shall take cognizance of all violations of this article committed in the course of the execution of the contract, and shall report them to the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement.

Section 1815. Overtime

Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 1810 to 1814, inclusive, of this code, and notwithstanding any stipulation inserted in any contract pursuant to the requirements of said sections, work performed by employees of contractors in excess of 8 hours per day, and 40 hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon public work upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of 8 h ours per day at not less than 1 ½ times the basic rate of pay.

(4) Amounts not paid in a timely manner as required by this section shall bear interest at 7 percent per annum. (5) If a subcontractor or a lower tier subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against a public entity because privity of contract does not exist, the contractor may present to the public entity a claim on behalf of a subcontractor or lower tier subcontractor.

(e) The text of this section or a summary of it shall be set forth in the plans or specifications for any public works project that may give rise to a claim under this section. (f) A waiver of the rights granted by this section is void and contrary to public policy, provided, however, that (1) upon receipt of a claim, the parties may mutually agree to waive, in writing, mediation and proceed directly to the commencement of a civil action or binding arbitration, as applicable; and (2) a public entity may prescribe reasonable change order, claim, and dispute resolution procedures and requirements in addition to the provisions of this section, so long as the contractual provisions do not conflict with or otherwise impair the timeframes and procedures set forth in this section. (g) This section applies to contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2017. (h) Nothing in this section shall impose liability upon a public entity that makes loans or grants available through a competitive application process, for the failure of an awardee to meet its contractual obligations. (i) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2027, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2027, deletes or extends that date. 122

Company Name (Bidder)
TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ORANGE:

In compliance with the notice inviting bids, plans, specifications and other contract documents for the construction of Bid No. 22-23.28; El Camino Real Park Booster Pump , the undersigned has carefully examined: the location of the proposed work, character, quality and quantity of work to be performed, conditions to be encountered, materials to be furnished and as to the requirements of the plans, specifications and other contract documents; agrees that submission of a proposal shall be considered prima facie evidence that the bidder has made such examination; and proposes to furnish all labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary to complete the work in accordance with said plans, specifications and other contract documents at the following unit or lump sum prices set forth in the schedule.

Contractor agrees to commence the work provided within ten (10) days of the date herein above stated and to diligently prosecute completion of the work in the time period agreed to by and between the representatives of the parties.

The undersigned agrees that the foregoing estimate of quantities of work to be done and materials to be furnished are approximate only, being given as basis for the comparison of bids.

The undersigned agrees that the City will not be held responsible if any of the approximate quantities shown in the foregoing proposal shall be found incorrect, and shall not make any claim for damages or for loss of profits because of a difference between the quantities of the various classes of work as estimated and the work actually done. If any error, omission or mis-statement shall be discovered in the estimated quantities, it shall not invalidate this contract or release the undersigned from the execution and completion of the whole or part of the work herein specified, in accordance with the specifications and the plans herein mentioned and the prices herein agreed upon and fixed therefore, or excuse him from any of the obligations or liabilities hereunder, or entitle him to any damages or compensation otherwise than as provided for in this contract.

The undersigned agrees that the City shall have the right to increase or decrease the quantity of any bid item or portion of the work or to omit portions of the work as may be deemed necessary or expedient, and that the payment for incidental items of work not separately provided in the proposal shall be considered included in the price bid for other various items of work.

Accompanying this proposal is ($ ) NOTICE: Insert the words "Cash", "Certified Check", or "Bidder's Bond", as the case may be, in an amount equal to at least 10 percent of the total bid price, payable to the City of Orange to guarantee that the bidder will, if awarded the contract, promptly execute such contract in accordance with the Exhibit A: Page 6 of 41
128

proposal and in the manner and form required by the contract documents, and will furnish good and sufficient bonds for the faithful performance of the same.

The undersigned deposits the above named security as a proposal guaranty and agrees that it shall be forfeited to the City of Orange as liquidated damages in case this proposal is withdrawn by the undersigned and the undersigned shall fail to execute a contract for doing said work and to furnish good and sufficient bonds in the form set forth in the specifications and contract documents of the City, with surety satisfactory to the City within 15 days after the bidder has received written notice of the award of the contract; otherwise, said security shall be returned to the undersigned.

Bidder hereby declares in writing, under penalty of perjury that all employees who will be performing labor, maintenance, delivery, installation or repair, will be those who are legally entitled to live and work in the United States. Further, the bidder as employer agrees to provide documentary proof of such eligibility (when requested by the City of any other authorized entity or agency).

Bids are to be submitted for the entire work. The bidder shall set forth for each unit basis item of work a unit price and a total for the item, and for each lump sum item a total for the item, all in clearly legible figures in the respective spaces provided for that purpose. In the case of unit basis items, the amount set forth under the "Item Total" column shall be the product of the unit price bid and the estimated quantity for the item. In case of discrepancy between the unit price and the total set forth for a unit basis item, the unit price shall prevail, except as provided in (a) or (b), as follows:
(a) If the amount set forth as a unit price is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, or is the same as the amount as the entry in the item total column, then the amount set forth in the item total column for the item shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus obtained shall be the unit price;
(b) (Decimal Errors) If the product of the entered unit price and the estimated quantity is exactly off by a factor of ten, one hundred, etc., or one-tenth, or one-hundredth, etc. from the entered total, the discrepancy will be resolved by using the entered unit price or item total, whichever most closely approximates percentage wise the unit price or item total in the City of Orange Final Estimate of cost.

If both the unit price and the item total are unreadable or otherwise unclear, or are omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular. Likewise if the item total for a lump sum item is unreadable or otherwise unclear, or is omitted, the bid may be deemed irregular unless the project being bid has only a single item and a clear, readable total bid is provided.

Symbols such as commas and dollar signs will be ignored and have no mathematical significance in establishing any unit price or item total or lump sums. Written unit prices, item totals and lump sums will be interpreted according to the number of digits and, if applicable, decimal placement. Cents symbols also have no significance in establishing any unit price or item total since all figures are assumed to be expressed in dollars and/or decimal fractions of a dollar. Bids on lump sum items shall be item totals only; if any unit price for a lump sum item is included in a bid and it differs from the item total, the items total shall prevail.

The foregoing provisions for the resolution of specific irregularities cannot be so comprehensive as to cover every omission, inconsistency, error or other irregularity which may occur in a bid. Any situation not specifically provided for will be determined in the discretion of the City of Orange, and that discretion will be exercised in the manner deemed by the City of Orange, to best protect the public interest in the prompt and economical completion of the work. The decision of the City of Orange respecting the amount of a bid, or the existence or treatment of an irregularity in a bid, shall be final.

Item #: 3.4. 4/25/2023 File #: 22-0713
Background
Landscaping in the common areas in the Santiago Hills Landscape Maintenance Assessment District (District) is managed and maintained by the City and paid for by the property owners within the District through two annual assessments on each property, Landscape Maintenance District No. 86-2 (LMD 86-2) and Landscape Maintenance District No. 15-1 (LMD 15-1). The City utilizes contract services to maintain landscape for the District, including the landscaped medians throughout.

As part of State water restrictions enacted in 2022, the use of potable water for irrigation of turf on street medians was prohibited. Although adjustments were made to the irrigation systems in order to provide sufficient water to median trees for their health and safety, the turf was no longer viable under the then current water regulations.

Discussion
The Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC) offered a rebate of $1- $4 per square foot for turf replacement with California Friendly plants for qualified applicants. The medians in the District were eligible for this rebate which include the medians on Chapman Ave. between Newport Blvd. and Jamboree Rd., on Newport Blvd. between Chapman Ave. and Santiago Canyon Rd., on Santiago Canyon Rd. between Newport Blvd. and Jamboree Rd., and the small median on White Oak Ridge near Newport Blvd.

In July 2022, the City Council took the following actions:
· Approved a maintenance project to replace the existing turf in the medians with Myoporum Parvifolium, the low growing ground cover which has been installed on other medians throughout the District.
· Authorized staff to submit this project for the rebate program. · Halted the existing Capital Improvement Project (CIP 20255) to renovate the corners at White Oak Ridge and Newport Blvd. and re-appropriated the funds for this project to the turf replacement maintenance project.

The total cost of the project was $238,850. After completing the project, MWDOC notified the City that it qualified for a rebate of $3 per square foot of turf replaced for a total of $174,564. Therefore, the net cost of the project is $64,286. Staff will allow the District’sfund (291) to accumulate enough fund balance to continue Capital Improvement Project (CIP 20255).

At this time, staff is requesting that a total of $174,564 be accepted and appropriated to offset the turf replacement costs.

1. SUBJECT
First Amendment to Agreement No. 6447.4 with the County of Orange for a Lead Forensic Specialist during Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

2. SUMMARY
The First Amendment with the County of Orange authorizes the continuation of services for a dedicated Lead Forensic Specialist to conduct fingerprint examinations in the amount of $191,257 for Fiscal Year 2023-2024.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the First Amendment to Agreement No. 6447.4 with the County of Orange for a Lead Forensic Specialist in the amount of $191,257 and authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement is $191,257 and will be funded upon adoption of the proposed Fiscal Year 2023-2024 budget through General Fund (100).

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
a: Provide staffing and resources to deliver services that ensure public safety.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Prior to 2019, the Police Department held a fully funded Forensic Services Specialist position that was vacant for many years due to lack of qualified candidates. The Forensic Services Specialist position provided vital services to the Department and required a unique skill set and qualifications that were not easily attained. During this time, the Department relied on the assistance of the Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD); however, this process resulted in a delay in processing evidence that caused a backlog of fingerprint analysis.

In January 2017, the Police Department transitioned from a “first-come, first-serve” basis with the OCSD to a contractual service agreement that assigned a dedicated fingerprint examiner to Orange Police Department (OPD) casework. The Department mitigated the cost of services by holding the Department’sForensic Services Specialist position vacant, and ultimately eliminated the position in City of Orange Printed on 4/20/2023Page 1 of 2

July 2019.

The services OCSD provides to OPD are immeasurable. The contract specifies one Lead Forensic Specialist; however, OCSD has far exceeded the agency’s expectations and has provided, on numerous occasions, additional staff to oversee critical incidents.

The term of the original agreement spans three years, commencing July 1, 2022, and terminating June 30, 2025. The agreement requires City Council to authorize cost increases each fiscal year, for years two and three, to continue with the agreement. If the cost increases are not approved in the subsequent fiscal years, the contract can be terminated. The cost breakdown is provided below.

Contract Fiscal Year Cost of Service Annual Change
Year One 2022 - 2023 $198,614
Year Two 2023 - 2024 $191,257 ($7,357) 3.7% Decrease
Annual costs are calculated by the County and include the full anticipated cost of services, equipment, and supplies in accordance with current OCSD cost data. Due to ongoing labor negotiations and a decrease in retirement rates, the cost of services decreased 3.7% for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 (FY 23-24).

Based on their high level of service and positive results, the department is requesting the continuation of services in the amount of $191,257 for FY 23-24.
