CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.7
DATE: April 29, 2025
TO: City Council
FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected] SUBJECT: Multiple Agreements for On-Call Professional Surveying Services.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve and authorize the Mayor to execute the following Agreements, each with an initial term of one year from April 30, 2025, to April 29, 2026, with an option for four consecutive one-year period extensions ending April 29, 2030, for on-call professional surveying services:

1. Agreement 32500443 Dudek for a total amount not to exceed $500,000;

2. Agreement 32500444 MNS Engineers, Inc. for a total amount not to exceed $500,000; and

3. Agreement 32500445 Omni Design, Inc. for a total amount not to exceed $500,000. (Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on April 8, 2025)

BACKGROUND
The Public Works Department (PW) utilizes professional consulting firms to provide licensed, technical expertise in various disciplines that support the development and implementation of the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as well as other non-CIP projects. Utilization of these specialized contractors is necessary to provide services that supplement the skills and experience of City staff. It is in the City’s interest to have a pool of these professional service contractors available on-call for a range of technical disciplines so that services can be procured, and needed work can proceed, in fairly short order.

Pre-approved on-call professional service agreements reduce the amount of time necessary to procure service contractors and thus facilitate the timely completion of certain categories of CIP and other projects. The specific services covered under this request include but are not limited to, general land surveying services, including land title surveys, preparation of plat or maps, field topographic survey, topographic design survey, aerial mapping and photography, research of existing utilities info or base maps, boundary surveys, as-built surveys, construction staking, lot line adjustments, preparation of legal descriptions, and record of survey mapping.

DISCUSSION
On December 4, 2024, the Purchasing Department issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) 25-64 for On-Call Land Surveying Services. The RFP was directly sent to three potential vendors and published on www.PublicPurchase.com as well as the City’s Purchasing website. Proposals were due January 9, 2025, and a total of seven proposals were received from the following vendors:

Dudek Kier & Wright Civil Engineers
and Surveyors, Inc.

Omni Design, Inc.
339
Encompass Consultant Group,
Inc.

MNS Engineers, Inc. Stantec Consulting Services Inc.

KDM Meridian
A rating and selection process of the proposals was then performed by a panel that consisted of the Engineering Division Manager, a Senior Construction Project Manager, and a Construction Project Manager. Scoring criteria consisted of company profile, qualifications of proposed staff, relevant professional experience and performance, and overall responsiveness that best met the RFP criteria while being consistent with the City’s municipal code. After a thorough review, the panel selected three firms to recommend for Agreement awards, with a determination that these vendors are the highest-ranked proposers based on the scoring criteria listed in the RFP and are consistent with the City’s Purchasing Policy.

Following further review by the Purchasing Division, it was determined that these vendors meet all required City contractual requirements, including possession of a City business tax certificate, insurance certificates, and corporate filing with the California Secretary of State. Therefore, based upon the analysis and research performed to date, staff believes that the three recommended vendors are capable of successfully performing On-Call Professional Services to the City.

Professional services under these agreements will be composed of task orders for each individual project assigned by the City and under the supervision of a Project Manager. The task order proposal will identify a concise description of the scope of work to be performed by the consultant, the method by which the consultant plans on completing the work, and a schedule for completion of the work. It is the consultant's responsibility to determine the best and most cost-effective method to complete the work so that the assigned task order can be completed to the satisfaction of the City. Once the City has received all proposals, they will review each and make a selection of the firm based on factors that include price, experience, methods, and schedule.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy. The purpose of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources strategy is to preserve and improve our roads, utilities, parks, trees, water supply and natural resources through effective planning, prioritization, and an equitable and efficient use of available funding.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total cost for each agreement shall not exceed $500,000, respectively, over five years if all extension options are fully executed. Due to the varying amounts of surveying services required year-to-year, it is difficult to go by historical data for calculating the future need of the on-call agreements. However, based on the anticipated CIP project volume over the next five years, the dollar amount of these agreements should sufficiently cover the level of surveying services needed. Funding for individual tasks will be sourced from projects identified in the City Council approved CIP or on rare occasions for City Divisions with non-CIP project requirements (e.g. Facilities division making minor office improvements). The respective Project Manager will ensure sufficient funding is available in the approved budget for related tasks prior to initiating work orders or services performed. Subsequent fiscal year allocations will be requested during the annual budget process.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME
The Public Works and Transportation Committee approved 3-0 on April 8, 2025 to approve the staff recommendation and to forward the item for Council approval.

Prepared by: Morgan Kessler, City Engineer

BACKGROUND
The Project consists of furnishing all necessary labor, materials, equipment and other incidental and appurtenant Work to complete roof replacement, repairs, and abatement at the Colonia Youth Boxing Gym located at 520 E 1st St.

The roof has significant issues stemming from age, weather, and deferred maintenance. Significant portions of the roof deck are rotted and have become unsafe to walk on for emergency repairs. Due to leaks in the roof, water has entered the building and created environmental issues throughout.

The building conversion to the Colonia Youth Boxing Gym was completed in 1994 and the roof has never been replaced.

A modified bitumen roof of this construction has a useful life expectancy of 10-15 years. This roof is 31 years old and has seen significant deterioration.

The entire roof system requires replacement, which includes: roof decking, insulation, roof membrane, and in some areas roof supporting structure. The existing roof has significant leaks that have had impact on the usability and safety for occupation at the facility. There are areas within the building that have drywall deterioration, mold, and vermin waste, which require removal. This remediation work will be handled during the roof demolition process. With a new roof that does not leak, the commencement of the subsequent capital improvement project for the remodel and restoration of the interior of the Colonia Youth Boxing Gym may commence, bringing back a cherished service to the city's residents.

The work is tentatively scheduled to begin in late May 2025 and continue into late summer 2025 (60 working days), absent any delays for supply chain issues, unforeseen site conditions, or weather. Staff will work closely with the La Colonia Neighborhood Council to keep them informed of the schedule and will also work closely with the neighborhoods 438
and residents directly impacted by the work to keep them informed of the project schedule. General project information will be disseminated to help keep the public informed as well.

Project No. C2306 – Roof Replacement - Various Facilities - CIP 2025-2029 - Adopted June 4, 2024– Page 56.

DISCUSSION
The Notice Inviting Formal Bids (NIFB) for this project was published on February 6, 2025, in the local VIDA Newspaper. Additionally, the NIFB was posted on multiple online platforms, including the City’s website, and distributed directly to 27 contractors who have registered with the City to be notified of Public Project bids within their license category. All bids were opened on March 12, 2025 and the City received the following:

Solar Roofing and Energy Storage: $255,800
AME Roofing: $489,900
Best Contracting Services, Inc.: $558,491
The lowest bidder is Solar Roofing and Energy Storage and its bid is responsive to the City’s NIFB. Following this determination, procurement staff reviewed all documentation received from Solar Roofing and Energy Storage.

Procurement staff verified possession of required, currently valid licenses, reviewed the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) website for safety violations, and verified registration with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). Based upon the available information and research performed to date, staff believes that the contractor is capable of satisfactorily completing the project. Thus, staff recommends that the City Council award the contract for this Project to Solar Roofing and Energy Storage.

In addition to the project award amount of $255,800, Staff recommends authorizing $76,740 for the project, which includes $51,160 (20% of the contract cost) for project contingency and $25,580 for the cost of engineering services and City staff (10% of the contract cost). A higher contingency value is often appropriate when repairing and restoring buildings, without well-documented as-builts, that have unpredictable levels of deterioration. As such, it is likely that unforeseen conditions will be more frequently encountered over the course of the work on the Boxing Gym, and a higher contingency amount of 20% is requested to address these as they come up. Engineering services include the following activities during construction: engineering, inspection, survey and project management. These recommendations bring the total estimated cost of the project to $332,540.

STRATEGIC PRIORITIES
This agenda item supports the Quality of Life strategy. The purpose of the Quality of Life strategy is to restore and increase quality services and programs that enrich Oxnard's diverse community, promotes safe neighborhoods, encourages community engagement, and supports our residents in their efforts to improve their quality of life.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total cost for this Project shall not exceed $332,540, which includes the construction agreement, contingency and project allocation. The Roof Replacement - Various Facilities (C2306) has an available project budget balance of approximately $1,632,600 from the General Fund (101).

The ongoing maintenance cost for this Roof Replacement and Interior Abatement at La Colonia Youth Boxing Gym will have a positive impact to the Public Works Facilities Operating Budget as additional damage due to weather will be eliminated.

COMMITTEE OUTCOME
This item did not originate in Committee as this is a capital improvement project specifically listed in the City's Capital Improvement Program budget, which was previously approved by the City Council.

1.

Commercial General Liability Insurance, including Contractual Liability, in an amount not less than $2,000,000 combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage for each claimant for general liability with coverage equivalent to Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability Coverage (Occurrence Form CG 0001). If a general aggregate limit is used, that limit shall apply separately to the project location or shall be twice the occurrence amount; b. Business Automobile Liability Insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for bodily injury and property damage for each claimant for automobile liability with coverage equivalent to Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability Coverage (Occurrence Form CA0001) covering Code No. 1, “any auto;” c. If architectural, engineering, or electrical work will be performed under the Contract, Professional Liability/Errors and Omissions Insurance appropriate to the work being done in an amount not less than $1,000,000, with neither Contractor nor listed subcontractors having less than $500,000 individually. The Professional Liability/Errors and Omissions Insurance must be project specific with at least a one-year extended reporting period, or longer upon request. d. Course of Construction Insurance providing coverage for “all risks” of loss in an amount not less than the completed value of the project, with City named as Owner and Insured. e. Workers’ Compensation Insurance in compliance with the laws of the State of California, and Employer’s Liability Insurance in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per claimant. Additionally, the workers’ compensation policy shall include a waiver of all rights of subrogation which the insurer may have against the City.

2. Contractor shall, prior to performance of any services, file with the Risk Manager certificates of insurance with original endorsements effecting coverage required by this Exhibit INS-E. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. The certificates and endorsements are to be on the attached forms or on other forms approved by the Risk Manager. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the Risk Manager before work commences. City reserves the right to require complete certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. The certificates of insurance and endorsements shall be sent via email. If you have not received your request or are having difficulty with electronic upload, contact [email protected].

3. Contractor agrees that all insurance coverages shall be provided by a California admitted insurance carrier with an A.M. Best rating of A:VII or better and shall be endorsed to state that coverage may not be suspended, voided, canceled by either party, or reduced in coverage or limits without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Risk Manager. The Risk Manager shall not approve or accept any endorsement if the endorsement contains “best effort” modifiers or if the insurer is relieved from the responsibility to give such notice.

4. Contractor agrees that the Commercial General Liability and Business Automobile Liability Insurance policies shall be endorsed to name City, its City Council, officers, employees and volunteers as additional insureds as respects: liability arising out of activities performed by or on behalf of Contractor; products and completed operations of Contractor; premises owned, occupied or used by Contractor; or automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by Contractor. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City, its City Council, officers, employees and volunteers. The General Liability Special Endorsement Form and Automobile Liability Special Endorsement Form attached to this Exhibit INS-E or substitute forms containing the same information and acceptable to the Risk Manager shall be used to provide the endorsements (ISO form CG 2010 11/85 or if not available, CG 2010 with an edition date prior to 01/04 and CG 2037).

5. The coverages provided to City shall be primary and not contributing to or in excess of any existing City insurance or self-insurance coverages (this must be endorsed). Additionally, the workers’ compensation policy shall include a waiver of all rights of subrogation which the insurer may have against the City. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to City, its City Council, officers, employees and volunteers. The insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer’s liability.

6. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the Risk Manager. At the option of the Risk Manager, either the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects City, its City Council, officers, employees and volunteers, or the Contractor shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses.

7. All insurance standards applicable to Contractor shall also be applicable to Contractor’s subcontractors. Contractor agrees to maintain appropriate agreements with subcontractors and to provide proper evidence of coverage upon receipt of a written request from the Risk Manager.

21 INSTRUCTION FOR SUBMITTING INSURANCE CERTIFICATES AND ENDORSEMENT FORMS
Certificates of Insurance
The sample accord form on the following page is provided to facilitate your preparation and submission of certificates of insurance. You may use this or any industry form that shows coverage as broad as that shown on the attached sample. Please note the certificate holder address must be as shown on the attached sample accord form with the contract number and insurance exhibit identification information completed. Improperly addressed certificates may delay the contract start-up date because the City’s practice is to return unidentifiable insurance certificates to the insured for clarification as to the contract number. Cancellation provisions must be endorsed to the policy. Modifying the certificate does not change coverage or obligate the carrier to provide notice of cancellation.

Endorsement Forms
Original endorsements are required for general liability and automobile liability insurance policies and must be attached to the applicable certificate of insurance. City preference is that you use the endorsement forms which are attached. Substitute forms will be accepted, however, as long as they include provisions comparable to the sample accord form.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

INFORMATION/CONSENT AGENDA
AGENDA ITEM NO. K.9
DATE: April 29, 2025
TO: City Council
FROM: Michael Wolfe, Public Works Director, (805) 385-8055, [email protected] SUBJECT: Easement Deed (Agreement No. A-8582) and Right of Way Contract (Agreement No. 32500496) Located at 804 Cooper Road, Oxnard (APN: 201-0-132-010).

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve and authorize:

1. The Mayor to execute an Easement Deed (Agreement No. A-8582) for APN 201-0-132-010;

2. The Mayor to execute a Right of Way Contract (Agreement No. 32500496) with Oxnard School District to purchase a permanent roadway easement located at 804 Cooper Road, Oxnard, ( “Property”), in the amount of $1,271; and

3. The City Manager to take any additional necessary actions to facilitate the acquisition of the property consistent with the terms of the transaction approved by the City Council. (This item is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to title 14 of the California Code of Regulations section 15061(b)(3).)
(This item did not originate in Committee as this is a capital improvement project specifically listed in the City's Capital Improvement Program budget, which was previously approved by the City Council.)

BACKGROUND
The Ramona Preschool Pedestrian Crossing Enhancements is a Capital Improvement project that aims to increase safety for students and parents walking to and from Ramona Preschool. The project includes the installation of sidewalks, curbs, gutters, cross gutters, ADA access ramps, drainage, high-visibility crosswalks, bike lanes, striping, and signage.

Due to the close proximity of the project to Ramona Elementary School, a small area of the planned sidewalk and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramp improvements will take more right-of-way than the City currently has, and thus requires the acquisition of an easement on Oxnard School District property. On June 27, 2023, City staff executed a Task Order for Professional Services with Hamner, Jewell & Associates for right-of-way services to pursue this acquisition.
