SECTIONS 1725.5, 1771, 1771.1, 1771.4, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813 and 1815 Section 1725.5. Registration of contractors; mandatory registration; qualifications and application; fees; exempt contractors
A contractor shall be registered pursuant to this section to be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any public work contract that is subject to the requirements of this chapter. For the purposes of this section, “contractor” includes a subcontractor as defined by Section 1722.1. (a) To qualify for registration under this section, a contractor shall do all of the following:
(1)(A) Register with the Department of Industrial Relations in the manner prescribed by the department and pay an initial nonrefundable application fee of four hundred dollars ($400) to qualify for registration under this section and an annual renewal fee on or before July 1 of each year thereafter. The annual renewal fee shall be in a uniform amount set by the Director of Industrial Relations, and the initial registration and renewal fees may be adjusted no more than annually by the director to support the costs specified in Section 1771.3. (B) Beginning June 1, 2019, a contractor may register or renew according to this subdivision in annual increments up to three years from the date of registration. Contractors who wish to do so will be required to prepay the applicable nonrefundable application or renewal fees to qualify for the number of years for which they wish to preregister.
(2) Provide evidence, disclosures, or releases as are necessary to establish all of the following:
(A) Workers' compensation coverage that meets the requirements of Division 4 (commencing with Section 3200) and includes sufficient coverage for any worker whom the contractor employs to perform work that is subject to prevailing wage requirements other than a contractor who is separately registered under this section.

Coverage may be evidenced by a current and valid certificate of workers' compensation insurance or certification of self-insurance required under Section 7125 of the Business and Professions Code. (B) If applicable, the contractor is licensed in accordance with Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 7000) of the Business and Professions Code.
(C) The contractor does not have any delinquent liability to an employee or the state for any assessment of back wages or related damages, interest, fines, or penalties pursuant to any final judgment, order, or determination by a court or any federal, state, or local administrative agency, including a confirmed arbitration award. However, for purposes of this paragraph, the contractor shall not be disqualified for any judgment, order, or determination that is under appeal, provided that the contractor has secured the payment of any amount eventually found due through a bond or other appropriate means. (D) The contractor is not currently debarred under Section 1777.1 or under any other federal or state law providing for the debarment of contractors from public works. (E) The contractor has not bid on a public works contract, been listed in a bid proposal, or engaged in the performance of a contract for public works without being lawfully registered in accordance with this section, within the preceding 12 months or since the effective date of the requirements set forth in subdivision (e), whichever is earlier. If a contractor is found to be in violation of the requirements of this paragraph, the period of disqualification shall be waived if both of the following are true:
447
(i) The contractor has not previously been found to be in violation of the requirements of this paragraph within the preceding 12 months.
(ii) The contractor pays an additional nonrefundable penalty registration fee of two thousand dollars ($2,000). (b) Fees received pursuant to this section shall be deposited in the State Public Works Enforcement Fund established by Section 1771.3 and shall be used only for the purposes specified in that section. (c) A contractor who fails to pay the renewal fee required under paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) on or before the expiration of any prior period of registration shall be prohibited from bidding on or engaging in the performance of any contract for public work until once again registered pursuant to this section. If the failure to pay the renewal fee was inadvertent, the contractor may renew its registration retroactively by paying an additional nonrefundable penalty renewal fee equal to the amount of the renewal fee within 90 days of the due date of the renewal fee.
(d) If, after a body awarding a contract accepts the contractor's bid or awards the contract, the work covered by the bid or contract is determined to be a public work to which Section 1771 applies, either as the result of a determination by the director pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a court decision, the requirements of this section shall not apply, subject to the following requirements:
(1) The body that awarded the contract failed, in the bid specification or in the contract documents, to identify as a public work that portion of the work that the determination or decision subsequently classifies as a public work.
(2) Within 20 days following service of notice on the awarding body of a determination by the Director of Industrial Relations pursuant to Section 1773.5 or a decision by a court that the contract was for public work as defined in this chapter, the contractor and any subcontractors are registered under this section or are replaced by a contractor or subcontractors who are registered under this section. (3) The requirements of this section shall apply prospectively only to any subsequent bid, bid proposal, contract, or work performed after the awarding body is served with notice of the determination or decision referred to in paragraph (2).
(e) The requirements of this section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, to any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, executed on or after April 1, 2015, and to any work performed under a contract for public work on or after January 1, 2018, regardless of when the contract for public work was executed.
(f) This section does not apply to work performed on a public works project of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) or less when the project is for construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work or to work performed on a public works project of fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000) or less when the project is for maintenance work.

Section 1771. Payment of general prevailing rate
Except for public works projects of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or less, not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for work of a similar character in the locality in which the public work is performed, and not less than the general prevailing rate of per diem wages for holiday and overtime work fixed as provided in this chapter, shall be paid to all workers employed on public works.

This section is applicable only to work performed under contract, and is not applicable to work carried out by a public agency with its own forces. This section is applicable to contracts let for maintenance work. 448

Section 1771.1. Registration as a contractor or subcontractor required prior to bid submission; exceptions; violations; penalties
(a) A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section 4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, unless currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. It is not a violation of this section for an unregistered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section 10164 or 20103.5 of the Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded.
(b) Notice of the requirement described in subdivision (a) shall be included in all bid invitations and public works contracts, and a bid shall not be accepted nor any contract or subcontract entered into without proof of the contractor or subcontractor's current registration to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. (c) An inadvertent error in listing a subcontractor who is not registered pursuant to Section 1725.5 in a bid proposal shall not be grounds for filing a bid protest or grounds for considering the bid nonresponsive, provided that any of the following apply:
(1) The subcontractor is registered prior to the bid opening. (2) Within 24 hours after the bid opening, the subcontractor is registered and has paid the penalty registration fee specified in subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (3) The subcontractor is replaced by another registered subcontractor pursuant to Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code.
(d) Failure by a subcontractor to be registered to perform public work as required by subdivision (a) shall be grounds under Section 4107 of the Public Contract Code for the contractor, with the consent of the awarding authority, to substitute a subcontractor who is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5 in place of the unregistered subcontractor.
(e) The department shall maintain on its Internet Web site a list of contractors who are currently registered to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5.
(f) A contract entered into with any contractor or subcontractor in violation of subdivision (a) shall be subject to cancellation, provided that a contract for public work shall not be unlawful, void, or voidable solely due to the failure of the awarding body, contractor, or any subcontractor to comply with the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section.
(g) If the Labor Commissioner or his or her designee determines that a contractor or subcontractor engaged in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in accordance with this section, the contractor or subcontractor shall forfeit, as a civil penalty to the state, one hundred dollars ($100) for each day of work performed in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of eight thousand dollars ($8,000) in addition to any penalty registration fee assessed pursuant to clause (ii) of subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1725.5. (h)(1) In addition to, or in lieu of, any other penalty or sanction authorized pursuant to this chapter, a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor who is found to have entered into a subcontract with an unregistered lower tier subcontractor to perform any public work in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section shall be subject to forfeiture, as a civil penalty to the state, of one hundred dollars ($100) 449
for each day the unregistered lower tier subcontractor performs work in violation of the registration requirement, not to exceed an aggregate penalty of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (2) The Labor Commissioner shall use the same standards specified in subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1775 when determining the severity of the violation and what penalty to assess, and may waive the penalty for a first time violation that was unintentional and did not hinder the Labor Commissioner's ability to monitor and enforce compliance with the requirements of this chapter. (3) A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor shall not be liable for penalties assessed pursuant to paragraph (1) if the lower tier subcontractor's performance is in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 due to the revocation of a previously approved registration. (4) A subcontractor shall not be liable for any penalties assessed against a higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor pursuant to paragraph (1). A higher tiered public works contractor or subcontractor may not require a lower tiered subcontractor to indemnify or otherwise be liable for any penalties pursuant to paragraph (1).
(i) The Labor Commissioner or his or her designee shall issue a civil wage and penalty assessment, in accordance with the provisions of Section 1741, upon determination of penalties pursuant to subdivision (g) and subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (h). Review of a civil wage and penalty assessment issued under this subdivision may be requested in accordance with the provisions of Section 1742. The regulations of the Director of Industrial Relations, which govern proceedings for review of civil wage and penalty assessments and the withholding of contract payments under Article 1 (commencing with Section 1720) and Article 2 (commencing with Section 1770), shall apply. (j)(1) Where a contractor or subcontractor engages in the performance of any public work contract without having been registered in violation of the requirements of Section 1725.5 or this section, the Labor Commissioner shall issue and serve a stop order prohibiting the use of the unregistered contractor or the unregistered subcontractor on all public works until the unregistered contractor or unregistered subcontractor is registered. The stop order shall not apply to work by registered contractors or subcontractors on the public work.
(2) A stop order may be personally served upon the contractor or subcontractor by either of the following methods:
(A) Manual delivery of the order to the contractor or subcontractor personally. (B) Leaving signed copies of the order with the person who is apparently in charge at the site of the public work and by thereafter mailing copies of the order by first class mail, postage prepaid to the contractor or subcontractor at one of the following:
(i) The address of the contractor or subcontractor on file with either the Secretary of State or the Contractors' State License Board.
(ii) If the contractor or subcontractor has no address on file with the Secretary of State or the Contractors' State License Board, the address of the site of the public work. (3) The stop order shall be effective immediately upon service and shall be subject to appeal by the party contracting with the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, by the unregistered contractor or subcontractor, or both. The appeal, hearing, and any further review of the hearing decision shall be governed by the procedures, time limits, and other requirements specified in subdivision (a) of Section 238.1. 450

(4) Any employee of an unregistered contractor or subcontractor who is affected by a work stoppage ordered by the commissioner pursuant to this subdivision shall be paid at his or her regular hourly prevailing wage rate by that employer for any hours the employee would have worked but for the work stoppage, not to exceed 10 days.
(k) Failure of a contractor or subcontractor, owner, director, officer, or managing agent of the contractor or subcontractor to observe a stop order issued and served upon him or her pursuant to subdivision (j) is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment in county jail not exceeding 60 days or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand dollars ($10,000), or both.
(l) This section shall apply to any bid proposal submitted on or after March 1, 2015, and any contract for public work entered into on or after April 1, 2015.

(d) The requirements of paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) shall apply to all contracts for public work, whether new or ongoing, on or after January 1, 2016.

Section 1775. Penalties for violations
(a)(1) The contractor and any subcontractor under the contractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit not more than two hundred dollars ($200) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates as determined by the director for the work or craft in which the worker is employed for any public work done under the contract by the contractor or, except as provided in subdivision (b), by any subcontractor under the contractor.
(2)(A) The amount of the penalty shall be determined by the Labor Commissioner based on consideration of both of the following:
(i) Whether the failure of the contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rate of per diem wages was a good faith mistake and, if so, the error was promptly and voluntarily corrected when brought to the attention of the contractor or subcontractor.
(ii) Whether the contractor or subcontractor has a prior record of failing to meet its prevailing wage obligations.
(B)(i) The penalty may not be less than forty dollars ($40) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, unless the failure of the contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rate of per diem wages was a good faith mistake and, if so, the error was promptly and voluntarily corrected when brought to the attention of the contractor or subcontractor. (ii) The penalty may not be less than eighty dollars ($80) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, if the contractor or subcontractor has been assessed penalties within the previous three years for failing to meet its prevailing wage obligations on a separate contract, unless those penalties were subsequently withdrawn or overturned. (iii) The penalty may not be less than one hundred twenty dollars ($120) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rate, if the Labor Commissioner determines that the violation was willful, as defined in subdivision (c) of Section 1777.1. (C) If the amount due under this section is collected from the contractor or subcontractor, any outstanding wage claim under Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 1720) of Part 7 of Division 2 against that contractor 452
Attachment No. 1

Page 7 of 13 ends

or subcontractor shall be satisfied before applying that amount to the penalty imposed on that contractor or subcontractor pursuant to this section.
(D) The determination of the Labor Commissioner as to the amount of the penalty shall be reviewable only for abuse of discretion.
(E) The difference between the prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the contractor or subcontractor, and the body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract a stipulation that this section will be complied with. (b) If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime contractor of the project is not liable for any penalties under subdivision (a) unless the prime contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime contractor fails to comply with all of the following requirements:
(1) The contract executed between the contractor and the subcontractor for the performance of work on the public works project shall include a copy of the provisions of this section and Sections 1771, 1776, 1777.5, 1813, and 1815.

Each payroll record shall contain or be verified by a written declaration that it is made under penalty of perjury, stating both of the following:
(1) The information contained in the payroll record is true and correct. (2) The employer has complied with the requirements of Sections 1771, 1811, and 1815 for any work performed by his or her employees on the public works project. 453

The public may not be given access to the records at the principal office of the contractor.
(c) Unless required to be furnished directly to the Labor Commissioner in accordance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of Section 1771.4, the certified payroll records shall be on forms provided by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement or shall contain the same information as the forms provided by the division.

The payroll records may consist of printouts of payroll data that are maintained as computer records, if the printouts contain the same information as the forms provided by the division and the printouts are verified in the manner specified in subdivision (a).

Section 1777.5. Employment of registered apprentices; wages; standards; number; apprenticeable craft or trade; exemptions; contributions; compliance program (a)(1) This chapter does not prevent the employment upon public works of properly registered apprentices who are active participants in an approved apprenticeship program. (2) For purposes of this chapter, “apprenticeship program” means a program under the jurisdiction of the California Apprenticeship Council established pursuant to Section 3070. (b)(1) Every apprentice employed upon public works shall be paid the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to which he or she is registered.
(2) Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, when a contractor requests the dispatch of an apprentice pursuant to this section to perform work on a public works project and requires the apprentice to fill out an application or undergo testing, training, an examination, or other preemployment process as a condition of employment, the apprentice shall be paid for the time spent on the required preemployment activity, including travel time to and from the required activity, if any, at the prevailing rate of per diem wages for apprentices in the trade to which he or she is registered. Unless otherwise provided by a collective bargaining agreement, a contractor is not required to compensate an apprentice for the time spent on preemployment activities if the apprentice is required to take a preemployment drug or alcohol test and he or she fails to pass that test.
(c) Only apprentices, as defined in Section 3077, who are in training under apprenticeship standards that have been approved by the Chief of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards and who are parties to written 455
apprentice agreements under Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 3070) of Division 3 are eligible to be employed at the apprentice wage rate on public works. The employment and training of each apprentice shall be in accordance with either of the following:
(1) The apprenticeship standards and apprentice agreements under which he or she is training. (2) The rules and regulations of the California Apprenticeship Council. (d) If the contractor to whom the contract is awarded by the state or any political subdivision, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs workers in any apprenticeable craft or trade, the contractor shall employ apprentices in at least the ratio set forth in this section and may apply to any apprenticeship program in the craft or trade that can provide apprentices to the site of the public work for a certificate approving the contractor under the apprenticeship standards for the employment and training of apprentices in the area or industry affected. However, the decision of the apprenticeship program to approve or deny a certificate shall be subject to review by the Administrator of Apprenticeship. The apprenticeship program or programs, upon approving the contractor, shall arrange for the dispatch of apprentices to the contractor. A contractor covered by an apprenticeship program's standards shall not be required to submit any additional application in order to include additional public works contracts under that program. “Apprenticeable craft or trade,” as used in this section, means a craft or trade determined as an apprenticeable occupation in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed by the California Apprenticeship Council. As used in this section, “contractor” includes any subcontractor under a contractor who performs any public works not excluded by subdivision (o).
(e) Before commencing work on a contract for public works, every contractor shall submit contract award information to an applicable apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public work.

The information submitted shall include an estimate of journeyman hours to be performed under the contract, the number of apprentices proposed to be employed, and the approximate dates the apprentices would be employed. A copy of this information shall also be submitted to the awarding body, if requested by the awarding body. Within 60 days after concluding work on the contract, each contractor and subcontractor shall submit to the awarding body, if requested, and to the apprenticeship program a verified statement of the journeyman and apprentice hours performed on the contract. The information under this subdivision shall be public. The apprenticeship programs shall retain this information for 12 months. (f) The apprenticeship program supplying apprentices to the area of the site of the public work shall ensure equal employment and affirmative action in apprenticeship for women and minorities. (g) The ratio of work performed by apprentices to journeymen employed in a particular craft or trade on the public work may be no higher than the ratio stipulated in the apprenticeship standards under which the apprenticeship program operates if the contractor agrees to be bound by those standards. However, except as otherwise provided in this section, in no case shall the ratio be less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman work.
(h) This ratio of apprentice work to journeyman work shall apply during any day or portion of a day when any journeyman is employed at the jobsite and shall be computed on the basis of the hours worked during the day by journeymen so employed. Any work performed by a journeyman in excess of eight hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the ratio. The contractor shall employ apprentices for the number of hours computed as above before the end of the contract or, in the case of a subcontractor, before the end of the subcontract. However, the contractor shall endeavor, to the greatest extent possible, to employ apprentices during the same time period that the journeymen in the same craft or trade are employed at the jobsite. When an hourly apprenticeship ratio is not feasible for a particular craft or trade, the Administrator 456
Attachment No. 1

Page 11 of 13 ends

of Apprenticeship, upon application of an apprenticeship program, may order a minimum ratio of not less than one apprentice for each five journeymen in a craft or trade classification. (i) A contractor covered by this section who has agreed to be covered by an apprenticeship program's standards upon the issuance of the approval certificate, or who has been previously approved for an apprenticeship program in the craft or trade, shall employ the number of apprentices or the ratio of apprentices to journeymen stipulated in the applicable apprenticeship standards, but in no event less than the 1-to-5 ratio required by subdivision (g).
(j) Upon proper showing by a contractor that he or she employs apprentices in a particular craft or trade in the state on all of his or her contracts on an annual average of not less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of labor performed by journeymen, the Administrator of Apprenticeship may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 hourly ratio, as set forth in this section for that craft or trade. (k) An apprenticeship program has the discretion to grant to a participating contractor or contractor association a certificate, which shall be subject to the approval of the Administrator of Apprenticeship, exempting the contractor from the 1-to-5 ratio set forth in this section when it finds that any one of the following conditions is met:
(1) Unemployment for the previous three-month period in the area exceeds an average of 15 percent. (2) The number of apprentices in training in the area exceeds a ratio of 1 to 5. (3) There is a showing that the apprenticeable craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either on a statewide basis or on a local basis. (4) Assignment of an apprentice to any work performed under a public works contract would create a condition that would jeopardize his or her life or the life, safety, or property of fellow employees or the public at large, or the specific task to which the apprentice is to be assigned is of a nature that training cannot be provided by a journeyman.
(l) If an exemption is granted pursuant to subdivision (k) to an organization that represents contractors in a specific trade from the 1-to-5 ratio on a local or statewide basis, the member contractors shall not be required to submit individual applications for approval to local joint apprenticeship committees, if they are already covered by the local apprenticeship standards.
(m)(1) A contractor to whom a contract is awarded, who, in performing any of the work under the contract, employs journeymen or apprentices in any apprenticeable craft or trade shall contribute to the California Apprenticeship Council the same amount that the director determines is the prevailing amount of apprenticeship training contributions in the area of the public works site. A contractor may take as a credit for payments to the council any amounts paid by the contractor to an approved apprenticeship program that can supply apprentices to the site of the public works project. The contractor may add the amount of the contributions in computing his or her bid for the contract. (2)(A) At the conclusion of the 2002-03 fiscal year and each fiscal year thereafter, the California Apprenticeship Council shall distribute training contributions received by the council under this subdivision, less the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for administering this subdivision, by making grants to approved apprenticeship programs for the purpose of training apprentices. The grant funds shall be distributed as follows:
457
(i) If there is an approved multiemployer apprenticeship program serving the same craft or trade and geographic area for which the training contributions were made to the council, a grant to that program shall be made.
(ii) If there are two or more approved multiemployer apprenticeship programs serving the same craft or trade and county for which the training contributions were made to the council, the grant shall be divided among those programs based on the number of apprentices from that county registered in each program. (iii) All training contributions not distributed under clauses (i) and (ii) shall be used to defray the future expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations for the administration and enforcement of apprenticeship and preapprenticeship standards and requirements under this code. (B) An apprenticeship program shall only be eligible to receive grant funds pursuant to this subdivision if the apprenticeship program agrees, prior to the receipt of any grant funds, to keep adequate records that document the expenditure of grant funds and to make all records available to the Department of Industrial Relations so that the Department of Industrial Relations is able to verify that grant funds were used solely for training apprentices. For purposes of this subparagraph, adequate records include, but are not limited to, invoices, receipts, and canceled checks that account for the expenditure of grant funds. This subparagraph shall not be deemed to require an apprenticeship program to provide the Department of Industrial Relations with more documentation than is necessary to verify the appropriate expenditure of grant funds made pursuant to this subdivision.
(C) The Department of Industrial Relations shall verify that grants made pursuant to this subdivision are used solely to fund training apprentices. If an apprenticeship program is unable to demonstrate how grant funds are expended or if an apprenticeship program is found to be using grant funds for purposes other than training apprentices, then the apprenticeship program shall not be eligible to receive any future grant pursuant to this subdivision and the Department of Industrial Relations may initiate the process to rescind the registration of the apprenticeship program.
(3) All training contributions received pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund, which is hereby created in the State Treasury. Upon appropriation by the Legislature, all moneys in the Apprenticeship Training Contribution Fund shall be used for the purpose of carrying out this subdivision and to pay the expenses of the Department of Industrial Relations. (n) The body awarding the contract shall cause to be inserted in the contract stipulations to effectuate this section. The stipulations shall fix the responsibility of compliance with this section for all apprenticeable occupations with the prime contractor.
(o) This section does not apply to contracts of general contractors or to contracts of specialty contractors not bidding for work through a general or prime contractor when the contracts of general contractors or those specialty contractors involve less than thirty thousand dollars ($30,000). (p) An awarding body that implements an approved labor compliance program in accordance with subdivision (b) of Section 1771.5 may, with the approval of the director, assist in the enforcement of this section under the terms and conditions prescribed by the director.

Section 1813. Forfeiture for violations; contract stipulation; report of violations The contractor or subcontractor shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the contract is made or awarded, forfeit twenty- five dollars ($25) for each worker employed in the execution of 458

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

1. SUBJECT
First Amendment to Contract with Diversified Thermal Services, LLC for mechanical services and preventative maintenance of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment at various City buildings and parks

2. SUMMARY
On March 12, 2024, the City executed a five-year contract with Diversified Thermal Services, LLC to deliver mechanical services and preventive maintenance of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment across City buildings and parks (Bid No. 23-24.22). The initial three-year contract value of $608,144 is nearly exhausted, driven by preventive maintenance obligations and emergency repairs.

To address this, the proposed First Amendment increases the contract amount by $239,594, bringing the total contract amount to $871,697.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the First Amendment with Diversified Thermal Services, LLC in the amount of $239,594 for preventive maintenance of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning equipment across City buildings and parks; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The expense for this First Amendment is $239,594 and will be funded through General Fund (100):

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 5: Improve Infrastructure, Mobility, and Technology Goal 3: Enhance Public Communication Strategy and Quality of Life

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City entered into a five-year contract with Diversified Thermal Services LLC on March 12, 2024, to provide preventative maintenance and repair services for HVAC systems across City facilities and parks. The initial two-year contract authority of $608,144 is now nearly exhausted due to a combination of ongoing maintenance requirements and unanticipated major repairs to aging equipment.

To date, approximately $46,200 in additional repair work has been performed beyond routine maintenance to address critical HVAC system failures at multiple City facilities. These repairs were City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 4/23/2026

Item #: 3.15. 4/28/2026 File #: 26-0199
maintenance to address critical HVAC system failures at multiple City facilities. These repairs were necessary to maintain operational continuity and extend the life of existing equipment.

Given the age and condition of City HVAC infrastructure, staff anticipate similar unforeseen repair needs will continue. Therefore, staff is requesting additional contract authority for both:
· Reconcile costs already incurred for necessary repairs ($46,200), · Provide funding for annual standard preventive maintenance ($51,794), and · Provide funding for anticipated repair needs through June 30, 2027 ($141,600) The proposed First Amendment increases the contract amount by $239,594, bringing the revised notto-exceed amount to $871,697.

Approval of this amendment will ensure the continuity of HVAC maintenance and repair services across City facilities and avoid service disruptions caused by contract capacity constraints.

Three bidders responded to the notice inviting bids. The selected responsible bidder is Owen Walstead LLC, a California limited liability company, dba U.S. Door, Inc. in the amount of $394,884.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The expense for this agreement is $394,884 and will be funded through Prop 172 (400) and General Fund (100) respectively:
400-5601-80101-265096 Fire Station Apparatus Bay Doors $374,220.00 100-5601-56999- City Facility Improvements $20,664.00

2. Owen Walstead LLC, dba U.S. Door, Inc. - $358,985

3. National Garage Door - $386,750
Estate Design and Construction was the low bidder. Staff found the firm non-responsive and nonresponsible after conducting reference checks and evaluating qualifications. Staff identified a lack of comparable project experience, negative reference feedback regarding project delays, and inconsistencies in project value reporting. These concerns highlighted issues of transparency and reliability. Following Public Contract Code Section 20162, award of contracts to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, the bidder must demonstrate the necessary experience, skill, and integrity for this work.

The next lowest bidder, Owen Walstead LLC, dba U.S. Door, Inc., was determined to be responsive and responsible, with demonstrated experience in similar work and satisfactory references.

Staff recommends awarding the contract to Owen Walstead LLC, dba U.S. Door, Inc., in the amount of $358,985, plus a 10% contingency of $35,899, for a total contract amount of $394,884.

This project will replace six garage bay doors at Fire Station 7 and one non-operable door at the Corporation Yard Fleet Building. The improvements will enhance operational reliability, reduce maintenance needs, and support uninterrupted emergency and public works services.

Construction is anticipated to begin in May 2026 and be completed by June 2026.

Said additional work or services and the amount of compensation therefor, up to the amount of the authorized contingency, shall be memorialized in the form of a Contract Amendment approved by the City Manager on a form acceptable to the City Attorney. The Contractor agrees to perform only that work or those services that are specifically requested by the Authorized City Representative.

ARTICLE 5
Guarantees
a. Contractor guarantees the construction and installation of all Work included in the Plans and Specifications for which Contractor has been awarded this Contract. b. Should any of the materials or equipment installed pursuant to this Contract prove defective or should the Work as a whole prove defective, due to faulty equipment, workmanship, materials furnished or methods of installations, or should said Work or any part thereof fail to function properly, as designed, due to any of the above causes within twelve (12) months after the 495

Contractor shall reimburse City, upon demand, for all expenses incurred in restoring said Work to the condition contemplated in this Contract, including the cost of any equipment or materials replaced. e. It is understood that emergency repairs may, by necessity, be made by City.

Therefore, when defective equipment, materials or workmanship result in emergency repairs by City, Contractor shall reimburse City, upon demand, for all expenses incurred. Emergency repairs will be deemed as those repairs determined by City’s Director of Public Works to be necessary due to an immediate detriment to the health, safety, welfare or convenience of the residents of City.

ARTICLE 6
Water Quality
a. The Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board (“RWQCB”) has issued National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) Permit No. R8-2009-0030 (the “Permit”), which governs storm water and non-storm water discharges resulting from municipal activities performed by City or its contractors. In order to comply with the Permit requirements, the County of Orange has prepared a Drainage Area Management Plan (“DAMP”), containing Model Maintenance Procedures with Best Management Practices (“BMPs”) that City and its contractors must adhere to. The Model Maintenance Procedures contain pollution prevention and source control techniques to minimize the impact of those activities upon dry-weather urban runoff, storm water runoff, and receiving water quality. Examples include: wash water from cleaning of sidewalks or parking lots must be collected and disposed of in the sewer or landscaped areas.
b. The Permit, the DAMP and the Model Maintenance Procedures are on file in the office of City’s Director of Public Works. Contractor hereby acknowledges that it has read, reviewed and understands the Permit, the DAMP and the Model Maintenance Procedures, as they relate to the Work and hereby shall perform the Work in conformance therewith.

ARTICLE 7
Independent Contractor; Contractor not Agent
a. At all times during the term of this Contract, Contractor shall be an independent contractor and not an employee of City. City shall have the right to control Contractor only insofar 496
5 as the result of Contractor’s services rendered pursuant to this Contract. City shall not have the right to control the means by which Contractor accomplishes services rendered pursuant to this Contract. Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, furnish all facilities, materials and equipment which may be required for furnishing services pursuant to this Contract. Contractor shall be solely responsible for, and shall indemnify, defend and save City harmless from all matters relating to the payment of its subcontractors, agents and employees, including compliance with social security, withholding and all other wages, salaries, benefits, taxes, exactions, and regulations of any nature whatsoever. Contractor acknowledges that Contractor and any subcontractors, agents or employees employed by Contractor shall not, under any circumstances, be considered employees of City, and that they shall not be entitled to any of the benefits or rights afforded employees of City, including, but not limited to, sick leave, vacation leave, holiday pay, Public Employees Retirement System benefits, or health, life, dental, long-term disability or workers' compensation insurance benefits.
b. Except as City may specify in writing, Contractor shall have no authority, express or implied, to act on behalf of City in any capacity whatsoever as an agent. Contractor shall have no authority, express or implied, to bind City to any obligation whatsoever.

ARTICLE 8
Public Work; Prevailing Wage
a. The Work which is the subject of this Contract is a “public work,” as that term is defined in Section 1720 of the California Labor Code, for which prevailing wages must be paid.

To the extent Contractor’s employees will perform any work that falls within any of the classifications for which the Department of Labor Relations of the State of California promulgates prevailing wage determinations, Contractor hereby agrees that Contractor, and any subcontractor under it, shall pay not less than the specified prevailing rates of wages to all such workers. The general prevailing wage determinations for crafts can be located on the website of the Department of Industrial Relations (www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR).

Contractor shall secure the payment of compensation to its employees in accordance with the provisions of Section 3700 of the California Labor Code. Accordingly, and as required by Section 1861 of the California Labor Code, Contractor hereby certifies as follows:
“I am aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for workers' compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that code, and I will comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this contract.”
497
6 d. Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City and its officers, employees, contractors and agents, with counsel reasonably acceptable to City, from and against any and all loss, liability, damage, claim, cost, expense, and/or “increased costs” (including reasonable attorney’s fees, court and litigation costs, and fees of expert witnesses) which result or arise in any way from the noncompliance by Contractor of any applicable local, state and/or federal law, including, without limitation, any applicable federal and/or state labor laws (including, without limitation, the requirement to pay state prevailing wages). It is agreed by the parties that, in connection with the construction of the Work which is the subject of this Contract, Contractor shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of state prevailing wages. “Increased costs” as used in this paragraph shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be enacted, adopted or amended from time to time. The foregoing indemnity shall survive termination of this Contract.

ARTICLE 9

ARTICLE 10
Conflicts of Interest

Contractor further agrees that it shall not be eligible to work as the builder for any project for which the design work is part of this Contract. 498

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

(1) General Liability $2,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If
Commercial General Liability insurance
or other form with a general aggregate
limit is used, either the general aggregate

occurrence limit.
499
8 (2) Automobile Liability $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury and property damage.
(3) Workers’ Compensation as required by the State of California. (4) Employer’s Liability $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease. c. Any insurance proceeds in excess of or broader than the minimum required coverage and/or minimum required limits which are applicable to a given loss shall be available to City. No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this Contract are sufficient to cover the obligations of Contractor under this Contract. d. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. At the option of City, either: the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or selfinsured retentions with respect to City, its officers, officials, agents and employees; or Contractor shall provide a financial guarantee satisfactory to City guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses. e. Each policy of general liability and automotive liability insurance shall contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
(1) City, its officers, officials, agents, and employees are declared to be additional insureds under the terms of the policy, with respect to liability arising out of automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by or on behalf of Contractor (any auto), and with respect to liability arising out of Work or operations performed by or on behalf of Contractor, including materials, parts or equipment furnished in connection with such Work or operations. A policy endorsement to that effect shall be provided to City along with the certificate of insurance. In lieu of an endorsement, City will accept a copy of the policy(ies) which evidences that City is an additional insured as a contracting party. The minimum coverage required by Subsection 12.b, above, shall apply to City as an additional insured.
(2) For any claims related to this Contract, Contractor’s insurance coverage shall be primary insurance with respect to City, its officers, officials, agents and employees. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its officers, officials, agents and employees shall be excess of Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. (3) Coverage shall not be canceled, except after thirty (30) days’ prior written notice has been provided to City.
f. Contractor shall furnish City with original certificates of insurance and endorsements effecting coverage required by this Article 12. The endorsements shall be on forms acceptable to City. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before the Work commences. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications at any time.
500

In such a case, City may procure insurance or self-insure the risk and charge Contractor for such costs and any and all damages resulting therefrom by way of set-off from any sums owed Contractor. i. Contractor agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which it has agreed to provide insurance, Contractor shall look solely to its insurance for recovery. Contractor hereby grants to City, on behalf of any insurer providing insurance to either Contractor or City with respect to the services of Contractor herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer may acquire against City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of City for all Work performed by Contractor, its employees, agents and subcontractors. Contractor shall obtain any other endorsement that may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation. j. Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all of the requirements stated herein.

ARTICLE 13

Upon receipt of notice, Contractor shall immediately cease work, unless the notice provides otherwise.

City shall not be liable for any claim of lost profits.

ARTICLE 14

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
In-vehicle cellular routers provide critical connectivity for mobile data computers used by officers during traffic enforcement activities. These systems support essential functions such as California Law Enforcement Telecommunication System (CLETS) vehicle and driver queries, CAD access, electronic citation processing, traffic collision reporting, and in-car video communication. Together, these tools enable real-time, field-based traffic operations that enhance officer effectiveness and contribute to improved roadway safety through informed policing and efficient data use.

The Police Department’s existing Cradlepoint routers are approximately five years old and nearing end-of-life. In addition, the current routers are limited to 4G connectivity. Upgrading to new routers City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 4/23/2026

end-of-life. In addition, the current routers are limited to 4G connectivity. Upgrading to new routers with 5G capability will provide significantly higher data speeds, lower latency, and greater capacity to support multiple connected devices. This replacement will improve communication reliability and performance while ensuring continued operational readiness.

Funding is available in the Traffic Safety Fund (450) which are restricted for use on traffic-related safety improvements and equipment, making this purchase an eligible and appropriate expenditure.

The purchase of 40 routers will be completed using NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement AR3189, Addendum No. 7-20-70-47-02, expiring on September 30, 2026.

1. SUBJECT
Authorize purchase of VeloCloud hardware from Sidepath, Inc.

2. SUMMARY
The VeloCloud purchase will fully enable a dual internet carrier function for the City providing for automatic seamless fail-over in the event one carrier’s service experiences an outage.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the purchase of VeloCloud hardware from Sidepath, Inc. for $40,800.51.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The expense for this purchase is $40,800.51 and will be funded through General Fund (100). 100.1601.56999 Other Repair / Maintenance Services

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 5: Improve Infrastructure, Mobility, and Technology

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The City increasingly utilizes cloud-based application solutions such as email, permitting, maintenance management, police computer aided dispatch and records management, website, financial system, and many others. The City currently utilizes Spectrum for business-class internet services. A second business-class internet service with Crown Castle is in progress. Adopting two physically diverse internet carriers eliminates the single point of failure inherent in a single-carrier design. A dual-carrier design delivers measurable improvements in uptime and operational continuity.

VeloCloud is an excellent way to maximize the value of the dual internet services. VeloCloud actively aggregates and load-balances the two carrier’s internet bandwidth improving operations and enables seamless fail-over alleviating the risk with a single carrier point of failure. Dual diverse carriers is now a standard best practice for businesses where internet connectivity can significantly impact operations.

The purchase will be completed using NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement AR2472 expiring on September 15, 2026.

1. SUBJECT
Authorize purchase of four traffic signal cabinets and one controller from Econolite Control Products, Inc. and a Centracs Software Maintenance Agreement from Econolite Systems, Inc., as a sole source procurement

2. SUMMARY
The maintenance of the city’s 158 traffic signals requires the purchase of parts, including major components such as traffic signal cabinets and controllers. Econolite Control Products, Inc., and Econolite Systems, Inc., provide hardware and software necessary to achieve consistency and compatibility with the city’s existing traffic signal infrastructure. These vendors are the only providers of their respective products and services. Therefore, a sole source procurement is justified.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Approve the sole source purchase of four traffic signal cabinets and one controller from Econolite Control Products, Inc. and a Centracs Software Maintenance Agreement from Econolite Systems, Inc. for a total of $113,969.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
The expense for this purchase is $113,969 and will be funded through Traffic Signal Controller Changeout (255073) and Biennial Traffic Signal Coordination (255094) respectively:
270-5704-87101-255073 Traffic Signal Controller Changeout $93,500 263-5704-87101-255094 Biennial Traffic Signal Coordination $20,469 Total $113,969

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 5: Improve Infrastructure, Mobility, and Technology

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Traffic signal cabinets serve two primary functions: to protect sensitive electrical components from exposure and provide capacity to house traffic signal hardware needed to expand functionality. Traffic signal controllers are the “brains” of a signalized intersection and are used to operate the selection and timing of traffic movements in accordance with the varying demands of traffic as registered with City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 4/23/2026
powered by Legistar™543
Item #: 3.22. 4/28/2026 File #: 26-0210
and timing of traffic movements in accordance with the varying demands of traffic as registered with the controller unit by detectors. Maintaining serviceable condition of field traffic signal equipment, including cabinets and controllers, is critical for ensuring a safe and efficient transportation system.

Equally important is the maintenance of advanced traffic control software. The city uses Centracs software installed in the Traffic Management Center’s workstations as a tool to monitor, manage and optimize traffic signals.

Staff have successfully taken advantage of various opportunities, including federal/state grants and Measure M2 grant funding, to upgrade aging traffic signal controllers and will continue to do so moving ahead. However, there remains several intersections that, due to lack of regional significance and other factors, are ineligible or unlikely to be funded through these external grant sources. As a result, some legacy equipment requires replacement through other funding methods. In April 2023 the City Council approved the purchase of four traffic signal cabinets for replacement and installation at various intersections throughout the City. As part of this ongoing effort to replace older equipment, four traffic signal cabinets are recommended for purchase at the following signalized intersections:

1. Santiago Boulevard and Meats Avenue

2. Santiago Boulevard and Serrano Avenue

3. La Veta Avenue and Bedford Road

4. Prospect Street and Bond Avenue
The traffic signal controller will be kept in stock and deployed if an existing controller malfunctions or is destroyed in a collision. Moreover, the purchase of a one-year Software Maintenance Agreement will ensure the city will receive a software upgrade to the current version of Centracs, periodic software maintenance updates, and technical support for City staff.

Econolite Control Products, Inc. and Econolite Systems, Inc. are subsidiaries of Econolite Group, Inc. (Econolite). City staff uses Econolite products and software on a daily basis. To achieve consistency and compatibility with existing signal infrastructure, staff recommends the purchase of four traffic signal cabinets and one controller from Econolite Control Products, Inc. and a Centracs Software Maintenance Agreement for a one-year period from Econolite Systems, Inc. These subsidiaries are part of Econolite, which is the sole provider and distributor of Econolite products in California, therefore warranting a sole source procurement.

The total amount of the procurement and installation is not to exceed $113,969. To minimize expenses, the installation (replacement) of the traffic signal controller cabinets will be performed by either staff or the city’s on-call traffic signal maintenance contractor.

1. SUBJECT
2026 City of Orange Conflict of Interest Code Biennial Review Notice

2. SUMMARY
The City is required by GC §87306.5 to review, and, if necessary, amend its Conflict of Interest Code every even-numbered year. As the code reviewing body for the Cityof Orange, the City Council must, no later than July 1, 2026, direct review of its code; and, no later than October 1, 2026, receive notice that an amendment is or is not required. If an amendment is required, it must be completed prior to December 31, 2026.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct staff to review the Conflict of Interest Code and authorize execution of the Biennial Review Notice no later than October 1, 2026.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
This action does not correlate to any of the adopted strategic plan goals; however, Section 87306 of the California Government Code requires biennial review of the City’s Conflict of Interest Code.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
The Political Reform Act of 1973 (“the Act”) and, in particular, Government Code Section 87306.5, requires the City Council to direct a review of the City’s Conflict of Interest Code (“Code”) no later than July 1 of each even-numbered year. If changes are necessary, a revised Code must be submitted to the City Council for approval. The City of Orange Conflict of Interest Code was last amended in 2024.

The Conflict of Interest Code identifies officials, employees, boards, committees and commissions; and consultants who are required to file at Statement of Economic Interests Form 700 when assuming office, on an annual basis, and upon leaving office. The purpose of the update is to specify positions within the agency which involve decision making that may have material or personal financial interests relative to City business. Designated individuals must disqualify themselves when conflicts of interest occur.

The completed review must be submitted to the City Council, with any recommended changes, by City of Orange Page 1 of 2 Printed on 4/23/2026

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
In March 2025, the City began the collective bargaining process with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 47, hereinafter collectively referred to as “Union”, which represents Maintenance & Crafts and Water Division employees within the Public Works and Community Services Departments. The contract between the parties expired on June 30, 2025.

The parties continued negotiating for a successor Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), exchanging six (6) proposals through September 5, 2025. On October 23, 2025, IBEW Local 47 declared impasse and requested the appointment of a mediator. On November 10, 2025, a mediator confirmed a mediation session scheduled for December 15, 2025; however, IBEW Local 47 canceled the meeting due to a scheduling conflict. Mediation was subsequently rescheduled for January 27-28, 2026. Over the course of these two (2) days, the parties explored mediator proposals but were unable to reach agreement.

On February 2, 2026, IBEW Local 47 submitted two (2) requests for fact-finding to the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) pursuant to Section 3505.4 of the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act and PERB Regulation 32802. PERB reviewed the requests and ultimately denied them due to the Union’s failure to file within the required 45-day window. As a result, the City was not obligated to participate in the fact-finding process.

On February 13, 2026, the City received formal notification from IBEW Local 47’s legal counsel of the Union’s intent to strike effective March 1, 2026. This resulted in a two-week strike during which employees were without pay and may have incurred out-of-pocket medical expenses, depending on their selected health plan(s).

As the City continues to face significant fiscal constraints, it is unable to accommodate the salary inequity adjustments as requested by IBEW Local 47. Instead, the City offered the same cost-ofliving adjustments to IBEW Local 47 that had been provided to all non-safety miscellaneous labor groups in 2025 and all labor groups in 2026: a 2.0% increase effective June 29, 2025, and a 3.0% increase effective June 28, 2026.

At its March 10, 2026, meeting, the City Council approved retroactive pay effective June 29, 2025, consistent with the compensation package previously presented to the Union as the City’s fifth (5th) proposal. This action was taken in good faith to help resolve the labor dispute and encourage employees to return to work. IBEW Local 47 presented the City’s final communication to its membership, and the agreement was ratified on Friday, March 13, 2026, officially ending the strike.

While the City maintained the same compensation adjustment, other elements of the two-year agreement include:
