11 INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the recently expanded Palm Desert Entrepreneur Resource Center (formerly known as Palm Desert Ihub), a vibrant hub of innovation and entrepreneurial spirit in the heart of Coachella Valley. The Palm Desert Entrepreneur Resource Center (ERC) is dedicated to fostering innovation, supporting startups, and driving economic growth. As a catalyst for entrepreneurial success and regional economic development, the Palm Desert ERC focuses on transforming the regional landscape for business and entrepreneurial opportunities.

In November 2023, the management of this dynamic facility was awarded to the School of Entrepreneurship (SOE) and Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship (IECE) at California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB). This marked a pivotal shift towards heightened professionalism, innovation, and performance, with the SOE and IECE jointly steering the center into a new era starting January 2024. This strategic partnership is designed to enhance the Palm Desert ERC's influence as a central player in both the local and broader Coachella Valley business ecosystems.

1st Quarter 2025: PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
Open House and Renaming event. On March 5, 2025, the team at CSUSB’s School of Entrepreneurship and IECE celebrated the expansion and rebranding of the Entrepreneurial Resource Center (ERC), marking a major milestone in the City of Palm Desert’s commitment to fostering entrepreneurship, business innovation, and economic
growth across the Coachella Valley. The event
showcased expanded resources, strategic
partnerships, and new programming designed to
empower small businesses, startups, and innovators
to scale, thrive, and succeed. Riverside County
Supervisor and County officials, City of Palm Desert
officials, along with other dignitaries throughout the
Coachella Valley, were in attendance to show their
support. Local entrepreneurs, business owners, and
community leaders joined the celebration to champion the expanded efforts.

Attendees learned about the enhanced resources now
available through key partners, including the newly
established AI Center, the Coachella Valley Small
Business Development Center (CVSBDC), Coachella
Valley Women’s Business Center (CVWBC), AmPac
Business Capital, First Choice Business Brokers,
and Cal State San Bernardino’s School of
Entrepreneurship. These expanded offerings reflected
a broader vision to strengthen the region’s
entrepreneurial ecosystem, support economic
development, and create new opportunities for
innovation and business growth.

AI Center Coachella Valley. In the first quarter, the Palm Desert ERC partnered for official launch of the AI Center Coachella Valley (AICV), managed by entrepreneur and AI enthusiast Sat Singh. Singh leads the development and execution of pioneering AI-driven projects, working to position AICV as the premier hub for AI innovation in the Coachella Valley. Under his leadership, AICV fosters a dynamic environment where collaboration among AI enthusiasts, founders, and content creators thrives. With a focus on experimentation, events, project coordination, and storytelling, AICV aims to transform ideas into MVPs and deliver impactful solutions that connect technology with enhanced user experiences. 15 Coachella Valley Small Business Development Center (CVSBDC) expansion. In March 2024, the Coachella Valley Small Business Development Center (CVSBDC) officially partnered with the Palm Desert Entrepreneurial Resource Center (ERC) as part of the Center’s broader expansion and strengthened collaboration with Riverside County. This partnership significantly enhances the breadth, scope, and depth of business support services available through the Palm Desert ERC, building upon the existing services already offered by the Center’s resource partners. With the addition of CVSBDC’s expertise, local entrepreneurs and small business owners now have greater access to specialized advising in startup assistance, marketing, operations, business planning, and growth strategies.

Together, these initiatives position the Palm Desert ERC as a critical driver for small business success and economic development throughout the Coachella Valley.

Coachella Valley Women’s Business Center (CVWBC). As part of the Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship (IECE) at CSUSB, the CVWBC has become an instrumental cornerstone in the PD ERC structure, bringing a wealth of resources that catalyze entrepreneurial success in the region.

The CVWBC offers an extensive suite of services at
minimal to no-cost, encompassing business consulting,
advisory services, and training workshops. This suite is tailored to empower not just women, but also
underrepresented minorities and members of
marginalized groups, positioning the CVWBC as a
critical ally in their entrepreneurial journey. Since its relocation to the PD ERC in February 2024, the CVWBC
has not only enriched the PD ERC’s ecosystem but has
also been pivotal in redefining it as a hub of innovative programming and support.

This move has proven to be a driver in enhancing the Palm Desert ERC’s capacity to support small businesses and foster economic growth. The CVWBC ensures that entrepreneurs have direct access to essential resources, facilitating a collaborative environment that nurtures growth and success. Through this dynamic partnership, the Palm Desert ERC and CVWBC collectively bolster the foundation of a thriving business community, making a significant impact on the regional economy by turning potential into prosperity.

Eric Cunningham, Writer, Comedian, Entrepreneur.

Eric Cunningham, founder of eecnunningham.com, was part of the inaugural Mini MBA cohort at the Palm Desert
Entrepreneurial Resource Center. As an entrepreneur with a diverse background, Eric found the program instrumental in refining his business focus and strategy. He credits much of his recent success to the insights and networking
opportunities the program provided.
“The Mini MBA program was just what I needed to find an intelligent focus for my business. As an entrepreneur, you instinctively want to do it all, tackle it all, and of course that's impossible. In just 6 sessions, the faculty helped me let go of all the extras and focus on my core business. And its breadth of material is one of its biggest assets. Because everyone's non-core extras may be different, being able to look at your company from all angles of a business is crucial.”
17 Beyond the curriculum, Eric emphasized the value of the program's collaborative environment. Engaging with fellow entrepreneurs and industry experts provided him with diverse perspectives and practical solutions to business challenges. This experience not only enhanced his business acumen but also expanded his professional network, contributing to the growth and success of his ventures. 18 2025 UPCOMING PROGRAMMING & INITIATIVES

This year’s key metrics—ranging from new business starts and the number of businesses assisted to the success of our incubator programs—reflect our steadfast commitment to building a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem. Among our most notable achievements is the graduation of 104 companies from our programs in 2024, a milestone that underscores the ERC’s effectiveness in guiding ventures from idea to execution.

Looking ahead, the ERC is well-positioned to
drive even greater innovation and impact across
the Coachella Valley. In close collaboration with
the Riverside County Office of Economic
Development, CSUSB’s School of
Entrepreneurship, and the Inland Empire Center
for Entrepreneurship (IECE), we are actively
expanding initiatives that strengthen and scale
our support offerings. These include the
continued growth of our Mini MBA program, the
launch of the new AI Center, and the
introduction of industry-specific roundtables
designed to deliver targeted education, foster
connection, and facilitate business growth.

Together, these efforts serve not only to
enhance our programming, but to lay the foundation for a resilient and adaptive entrepreneurial culture in the region.

In March 2025, the Palm Desert ERC officially transitioned into a fully integrated Entrepreneurial Resource Center, reflecting a comprehensive model designed to support the diverse needs of local entrepreneurs and small business owners. This transformation represents the culmination of collaborative efforts across city, county, and academic partners—and stands as a testament to our shared commitment to advancing entrepreneurship in Palm Desert and the greater Coachella Valley.

With this renewed vision and structure, the ERC is poised to keep the region at the forefront of innovation, opportunity, and inclusive economic development. 20 Appendix
Explanatory Notes for Key Metrics:

Business Startup metric is comprised of clients served whose business is in one of three categories: (a) Less than 1 year in business, (b) pre-venture stage, and (c) startup phase. There is overlap between the pre-venture and launch phase. This is the result of the natural progression of the business life cycle from planning stage to launch. However, in the case of our reporting for 3rd quarter, we noted 129 distinct entrepreneurs that were served through our programs in the “startup” phase which includes businesses that in prelaunch phase of business through their first year after launching their business. Clients self-report their progress and for the purpose of our data collection, a business is considered “launched” when a client reports any of the following:
first sale, obtain business license, incorporates, or files a fictitious name.

Businesses assisted consists of entrepreneurs and/or business owners that have obtained services from any of the ERC programs. This includes the Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship (IECE), Coachella Valley Women’s Business Center (CVWBC), Enterprise Funding Corporation, and the School of Entrepreneurship. This number does not include CSUSB students that attend regular undergraduate programs during CSUSB’s academic school year such as course sessions.

Business events at PD ERC exclude programming assumed from previous ERC manager (Riverside County Registrar of Voters polls, or City of Palm Desert Outreach programs). What are included in these events are unique programs hosted by CSUSB’s School of Entrepreneurship and Inland Empire Center of Entrepreneurship (IECE). These include Research Weeks, the Mini MBA program, business social and networking events, and Masterclass by CVWBC. In addition, ERC service providers provided virtual and webcast events to expand access and geographic footprint of services along with in-person events at the ERC. We’ve noted and distinguished the events held in-person at the ERC as well as events hosted virtually from the PD ERC facility. In addition, we note the distinctive event attendance for virtual versus inperson events.

Economic Impact figures are important quantitative figures utilized to measure impact on business clients serviced at ERC. These numbers are collected from service providers at the ERC and compiled for the purposes of this report. Each program administered through the ERC is tasked with collecting data on clients serviced. For example, the CVWBC intakes each new client and has regular follow ups where clients will report and document progress. Data is verified with documentation provided by each program through various methods.

Debt Financing: These figures include SBA-backed financing, bank loans and/or lines of credit that clients obtain as result of counseling, consulting, and advising services provided through ERC programming. Debt financing is a method of raising capital for a business or project by borrowing funds from external sources. The borrower is obligated to repay the principal amount borrowed, along with any interest or fees, over a specified period of time.

Equity Financing: These figures include funds that clients/entrepreneurs invest in their own firms as well as capital raised by selling ownership stakes in their firms. Equity financing is a method of raising capital for a business or project by selling ownership shares or equity stakes to investors in exchange for funds. Unlike debt financing, where the business borrows money and must repay it with interest, equity financing involves issuing shares of ownership in the company to investors, who become partial owners of the business.
21 Sales Revenue: For the purpose of this report, we track contracts that are awarded to client companies of the ERC such as government or procurement contacts. In addition, we track sales revenue increase that clients serviced at the ERC obtain as a result of services provided through the ERC such as professional or technical development workshops, training events, in addition to consulting and advisory services.

Jobs supported: This figure is directly reported by client companies of the ERC. It is a method utilized to quantify the direct number of jobs that are supported as result of ERC services. Part-time and full-time jobs are summarized in this figure. For example, a business owner that hires two (2) part-time employees would quantify as three (3) jobs.

Or, a business owner and spouse that have two (2) full time employees would count as four (4). This figure typically includes the business owner and the employees. It is difficult to track part-time vs. full-time employees as many clients experience fluctuations in business and these numbers are self-reported by business owners and documented by ERC service providers.

Underrepresented Minority-Owned Firms: These figures include the number of minorityowned businesses as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). These include firms that 51%+ owned by a female, Latino, Black, Asian-American and other groups classified as minorities.

This excludes CSUSB faculty offices, classrooms, and the CVWBC.

Graduated companies are companies that sign up for a series of programs and obtain completion certificate upon completion of program requirements. In the 2nd quarter our partners gained momentum and we witnessed an increase in activity as result of CVWBC’s It’s Your Time and the School of Entrepreneurship’s Mini MBA programs. 22

Coachella Valley Women’s Business Center (CVWBC). As a key part of the Randall W.

Lunch with an Entrepreneur. Held on April
30th, this annual event at the Palm Desert
ERC brings together accomplished
entrepreneurs and students from the CSUSB
Palm Desert Campus for an engaging lunchand-learn session. Designed to inspire and educate, the event creates a dynamic space
where students pose thoughtful questions and
gain firsthand insight into the entrepreneurial
journey. From lessons learned to hard-won
wisdom, the stories and advice shared are
both candid and impactful. The event was
attended by 27 Entrepreneurs and 25
students.

Beyond the conversation, the event fosters meaningful connections. Students and entrepreneurs build rapport in an informal yet purposeful setting, laying the groundwork for future mentorship, collaboration, and professional growth. By helping students expand their networks and confidence, this event plays a vital role in preparing the next generation of entrepreneurs for success.

AI Center Coachella Valley. In the first quarter, the Palm Desert ERC partnered for the official launch of the AI Center Coachella Valley (AICV), managed by entrepreneur and AI expert Sat Singh. Singh leads the development and execution of pioneering AI-driven projects, working to position AICV as the premier hub for AI innovation in the Coachella Valley. Under his leadership, AICV fosters a dynamic environment where collaboration
among AI enthusiasts, founders, and content creators
thrives. With a focus on experimentation, events, project coordination, and storytelling, AICV aims to transform
ideas into MVPs and deliver impactful solutions that
connect technology with enhanced user experiences.

The AICV has launched regular programming at the PD ERC and been a contributor on bringing more awareness on the benefits and advantages of Artificial Intelligence for small business and entrepreneurs.

Coachella Valley Small Business Development Center (CVSBDC) expansion. In March 2024, the Coachella Valley Small Business Development Center (CVSBDC) officially partnered with the Palm Desert Entrepreneurial Resource Center (ERC) as part of the Center’s broader expansion and strengthened collaboration with Riverside County. This partnership significantly enhances the breadth, scope, and depth of business support services available through the Palm Desert ERC, building upon the existing services already offered by the Center’s resource partners. With the addition of CVSBDC’s expertise, local 29

entrepreneurs and small business owners now have greater access to specialized advising in startup assistance, marketing, operations, business planning, and growth strategies.

A key feature of this partnership is the integration of the Access to Capital Center, a program designed to assist entrepreneurs in navigating funding opportunities and securing the capital necessary to launch and expand their businesses.

FEATURED SUCCESS STORIES
Kassandra Rioseco-Jimenez, founder of Con Amor, Nina y León, has transformed her passion for baking and motherhood into one of the Coachella Valley’s most beloved artisan micro-bakeries. Named after her children, the business began as a heartfelt home project and quickly grew into a community favorite, known for its nostalgic Latin flavors and beautifully crafted pastries.

With guidance from the Coachella Valley
Women’s Business Center (CVWBC),
Kassandra successfully secured all
necessary permits, licenses, and food
safety certifications. Counselors Jennifer
Douheret and Salima Nurani supported her
in accessing commercial kitchen space,
developing a financial plan, and
connecting with the City of Palm Desert—
leading to pop-ups on El Paseo, the luxury
retail street where she once worked.

Today, Kassandra is not only building her brand through strategic collaborations and social media but also paving the way for a future bakery-bistro. Her journey is a shining example of creativity, resilience, and the power of community-centered entrepreneurship.

Kendra from Miti Boards, a Palm Desert-based
business, pulled off a massive win—securing a
contract to serve BOTH weekends of Coachella and
Stagecoach for Lady Gaga’s team.

Known for her bold and elevated charcuterie
creations, Kendra has grown Miti Boards into a luxury
brand with a star-studded clientele. Over the past
year, her sales have increased by more than 50%,
fueled by relentless hustle, creativity, and strategic
business growth.

She’s been scaling with the support of the Coachella
Valley Women’s Business Center, where entrepreneurs gain the tools, guidance, and confidence to go after big opportunities—like feeding pop icons at some of the world’s most iconic music festivals.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 25, 2025
PREPARED BY: Anthony J. Mejia, City Clerk
SUBJECT: RATIFICATION OF LETTER CALLING FOR AN EQUITABLE ALLOCATION OF PROPOSITION 4 SALTON SEA FUNDING
RECOMMENDATION:

Ratify the issuance of a letter calling for an equitable allocation of Proposition 4 funds between the Salton Sea Authority and the Salton Sea Conservancy.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The City received a request from the Salton Sea Authority to provide support for the equitable allocation of funds included in Proposition 4, which was approved by California voters in 2024.

Proposition 4 allocates $10 million under Public Resources Code Section 91033(b) for the benefit of either the Salton Sea Authority or the newly formed Salton Sea Conservancy, but the measure does not prescribe how funds should be distributed between the two entities.

The Authority has emphasized the importance of continued funding for projects that address environmental restoration, public health, and economic revitalization in and around the Salton Sea. These include the North Lake Pilot Demonstration Project, the Desert Shores Channel Restoration Project, federal feasibility studies in partnership with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the development of an air monitoring task force.

At the same time, the Salton Sea Conservancy, created by statute in 2024, is in its formative stage and requires foundational resources to effectively launch and carry out its mission.

The City Council Subcommittee on Legislative/Governmental Affairs reviewed this request and authorized issuance of the letter. The attached letter urges the Legislature to allocate $5 million to the Salton Sea Authority and $5 million to the Salton Sea Conservancy.

Legal Review:

This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no financial impact to the City associated with this action.

RE: Proposition 4 – Salton Sea Funding Allocation
Dear Chairs and Honorable Legislators:

On behalf of the City of Palm Desert, we urge an equitable allocation of funding included in Proposition 4 to support essential and ongoing activities in and around the Salton Sea.

Specifically, we propose that the funds provided under Section 91033(b) be allocated as follows:
• $5 million to the Salton Sea Authority to continue its work relating to the Salton Sea Management Program, including in partnership with the Department of Water Resources (together as “joint local sponsors”) and the United States Army Corps of Engineers, the continued pursuit of a comprehensive ecosystem restoration plan. Once completed, this plan will facilitate access to 65% matching funds for all subsequent work. Additional efforts include collaboration with the State, in accordance with AB 71 (2013, Pérez), on the creation and implementation of the Salton Sea Conservancy, as well as related environmental, public safety, and economic revitalization initiatives.
• $5 million to the California Natural Resources Agency to fund the creation of the Salton Sea Conservancy, established through the 2024 statute. 93 The newly formed Salton Sea Conservancy provides a critical tool for ensuring future sustainable management and revitalization of the Sea. However, the Conservancy is still in its formative stage and requires a solid foundation to effectively launch and carry out its mission. At the same time, the Salton Sea Authority continues its invaluable work in collaborating with the State on the Salton Sea Management Program, spearheading initiatives that address environmental degradation, public health concerns, and the economic disinvestment plaguing our region.

These efforts are essential to securing an equitable and sustainable future for the Salton Sea and for the frontline communities most impacted by its decline. Equally important, the Authority’s efforts to address current and future impacts on the Sea and adjacent communities resulting from increased conservation are critical to long-term water security for California and the West.

Consistent with the bill text and preceding negotiations, we strongly believe that the limited funding available through Proposition 4 must be equitably shared between the Authority and the Conservancy to enable complementary efforts. Without adequate resources, the progress made toward environmental and public health improvements in the region would be at risk, perpetuating inequities that disproportionately burden the most vulnerable populations in the Coachella Valley.

Our communities deserve a robust, coordinated effort to address the complex challenges posed by the Salton Sea. We urge you to prioritize a balanced funding approach for both the Salton Sea Authority and the Salton Sea Conservancy.

Thank you for your attention to this critical matter. The City of Palm Desert stands ready to support this effort in any way possible, and we look forward to working together to strengthen the health and resilience of our communities.

Sincerely,
Jan C. Harnik
Mayor, City of Palm Desert
94 PROPOSED ALLOCATION OF PROPOSITION 4

SALTON SEA FUNDING
Public Resources Code Section 91033(b):
(b) Of the funds made available by subdivision (a), ten million dollars ($10,000,000) shall be available for either of the following:
(1) The creation of the Salton Sea Conservancy.
(2) The Salton Sea Authority.

ENTITY
Salton Sea Authority

INTENDED USES OF FUNDING
Given the delineation of roles and tasks, and the value that the Authority delivers to a variety of ongoing, essential projects and programs to benefit environmental restoration and economic revitalization in and around the Sea, the following reflects an equitable distribution of the Proposition 4 allocation pursuant to Section 91033(b) between the Authority and the Conservancy over the next 2-3 year time period:
$5 M allocation to Salton Sea Authority:
• $2M for use in supplementing funding for the North Lake Pilot Demonstration Project and Desert Shores Channel Restoration Project (Total $2M allocation) • $3M for the Authority's ongoing work relative to the federal feasibility study, air monitoring task force, support of the Salton Sea Conservancy, and implementation of Conservancy activities
Multi-benefit uses of funding by the Salton Sea Authority, include:
(1) Facilitating the Federal Feasibility Study: Outreach, education, and engagement relating to the Imperial Streams Salton Sea and Tributaries Feasibility Study by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to pave the way for long-term restoration at the Salton Sea through:
• Identification of innovative projects to restore conditions at the Sea • Opening pathways for ongoing federal funding contributions for projects to improve environmental conditions and economic revitalization at the Sea 1 95
Ongoing engagement by the Authority will include working with the study team and subject matter experts in the fields of hydrology, biology, agriculture, and water and land use policy - by bringing outreach and communications to the efforts through the unique and deeply-ingrained relationships that the Authority has established in and around the Salton Sea over the last four decades - to develop a hydrologic and hydraulic model of the Sea.

Importantly, the Authority plays a key role in facilitating potential federal engagement and implementation of early-action, no-regrets targeted restoration opportunities that could be implemented on an accelerated schedule, in advance of the longer-term, comprehensive federal feasibility study. (2) Supplemental funding for the North Lake Pilot Demonstration Project* ( originally initiated under Proposition 68): This funding will continue efforts to construct an approximately 156-acre lake at the North end of the Salton Sea to create shallow and deep-water habitats for fish and birds. The Authority's relationships and outreach abilities within Riverside County help uniquely position the Authority to bring partnerships together to restore and manage the habitat for fish and wildlife, control dust for public health protection, and provide recreational opportunities to facilitate economic revitalization.
(3) Desert Shores Channel Restoration Project: This funding will support habitat restoration and dust suppression by refilling the five southernmost boat channels in the Desert Shores Marina. The Authority has actively created and engaged in partnership development between local, state, and federal agencies for active restoration work and infusion of funding to move this project forward. ( 4) Advancing the concept of a Salton Sea Air Monitoring Task Force: A significant portion of the Salton Sea's emissions - particularly dust, hydrogen sulfide, and other airborne toxins - remains insufficiently monitored. The Salton Sea Authority is committed to protecting public health by deepening its understanding of these risks and fostering transparency across all monitoring efforts. To advance this mission, the Authority will form a multi-sector task force that will unify current activities, identify critical gaps, and establish a durable, science-based framework for accountability. (5) Leveraging opportunities for improved economic development and revitalization. This funding will further the Authority's ongoing engagement and activities around the planning, analyzing, and implementing of focused opportunities to support and promote economic activities that could be useful in 2 96
funding Conservancy actions related to environmental protection and restoration of the Sea. The Authority's engagement and involvement in partnerships to facilitate expanded North Lake recreation, tourism, and natural resources activities (lithium) would be valuable in providing economic investment opportunities to further advance the goals and objectives in and around the Salton Sea. (6) Supporting the Salton Sea Conservancy: The Salton Sea Authority is the local government entity in the region that serves as partner with the State to fully implement activities related to Salton Sea restoration and economic revitalization. Given the Conservancy's role to operate and maintain completed Salton Sea Management Plan projects and own land associated with the SSMP, there is considerable support and technical assistance that the Authority can provide relative to standing-up the Conservancy over its initial phases, continuing to engage regional, state, and federal partners to facilitate the Conservancy's early-stage efforts, and facilitate ongoing engagement with partners throughout the region to ensure that all of the environmental restoration and economic revitalization interests are well represented.
(7) Implementing Conservancy Activities: The Authority is well-positioned to be an implementer of Conservancy activities given its long and successful history of facilitating communication and partnerships throughout the Salton Sea region and its ability to be nimble in undertaking specific tasks, activities, programs, and projects. As the soon-to-be second largest state conservancy, the Salton Sea Conservancy will play a critical role in catalyzing conversations in and around the Sea, but the Authority can provide seamless real-time, on-the-ground facilitation of project and program implementation as a result of its historical engagements and its reputation as an agile entity that can get projects done.

INTENDED USES OF FUNDING
Salton Sea Conservancy $5 M in start-up costs for the initial steps toward creation of the Conservancy. Most recent state conservancy created is the Delta Conservancy in 2009 - start-up costs were in the range of $1.3 million.

Given cost-of-living adjustments and escalation, it is conceivable that start-up costs for a new conservancy in 2025 would be in the range of $3-4 million *Based on timing and adequacy of need - other potential uses as determined by the Authority Board could include community stakeholder planning effo11s, including proposed local trail systems and other community amenities, fo r example
**These funds may be creditable to the local sponsor's 50% matching commitment under the Imperial Steams Salton Sea and Tri butaries Feasibility Study 3 97

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 25, 2025
PREPARED BY: Chris Escobedo, City Manager
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT NO. 6 TO CONTRACT NO. C28880 WITH BEST BEST &

KRIEGER LLP FOR CITY ATTORNEY SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve Amendment No. 6 to Contract No. C28880 with Best Best & Krieger LLP for City Attorney Services, extending the agreement and adjusting compensation.

2. Authorize the Mayor to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In November 1973, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 73-03, appointing David Erwin, Esq., as City Attorney. In 1986, Mr. Erwin joined the law firm of Best Best & Krieger (BB&K) and continued to serve as City Attorney.

In 2009, the City issued a Request for Proposals for City Attorney Services and selected Best Best & Krieger, with Mr. Erwin, for a five-year term ending in August 2014 (Contract No. C28880).  Amendment No. 1 (2014): Extended the agreement through August 31, 2019.  Amendment No. 2 (2019): Extended the agreement through August 31, 2024.  Amendment No. 3 (2023): Upon the retirement of Robert Hargreaves, appointed Isra Shah, Esq., as City Attorney.
 Amendment No. 4 (2024): Extended the agreement through August 31, 2025.  Amendment No. 5 (2025): Extended the agreement through December 31, 2025.

The proposed Amendment No. 6 makes two substantive changes to the City Attorney contract:

1. Compensation Adjustment: Effective July 1, 2026, the monthly compensation will increase by $5,000 per month in addition to the standard CPI adjustment.

2. Conversion to a Rolling Term: Unlike prior amendments, which established a fixed end date for the contract, Amendment No. 6 modifies Section 13 of the 2009 Agreement so that the agreement now continues indefinitely unless terminated by either party under the 30-day termination provision.

Together, these modifications provide continuity in legal representation while aligning compensation with the terms of the original agreement, which permits increases beyond the CPI adjustment for good cause. All other terms of the agreement remain unchanged. 101

Legal Review:

The proposed Amendment No. 6 to Contract No. C28880 was reviewed by outside counsel, Liebert Cassidy Whitmore (LCW). LCW found no legal issues with the amendment and confirmed that it is consistent with the City’s existing agreement with Best Best & Krieger LLP.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

There is no immediate fiscal impact in the current fiscal year. Effective July 1, 2026, following the annual CPI adjustment, the City Attorney’s monthly retainer will increase by an additional $5,000, over and above the CPI adjustment. The increase will be incorporated into the Fiscal Year 2026–27 annual budget request. Future year budgets will include the annual CPI adjustment.

Extend the City Attorney contract with Best, Best and Krieger LLP for five years under the same terms and conditions as the existing contract.

Backqround
In 2009, the City of Palm Desert released a Request for Proposal for City Attomey Services. The City received nine proposals and interviewed the three top firms with a committee comprised of:

1. Mr. Bob Spiegel, Mayor

2. Mr. Jim Ferguson, Councilmember

3. Mr. John M. Wohlmuth, City Manager

4. Judge Rob Taylor; and

5. Mr. Larry Parrish, retired Riverside County CEO
The three firms that were interviewed by the Selection Committee were:

1. Best, Best and Krieger

2. Richard Watson and Gershon

3. Aleshire and Wynder
The committee chose Best, Best and Krieger as the top proposal and interview. During the month of July 2009, a contract was negotiated culminating in a five- year contract awarded by the City Council on August 27, 2009. The contract terminates on August 27, 2014.

Staff Report
City Attorney Contract E ension

Page 2 ends

August 28, 2014
Please find attached a letter from Dave Erwin dated July 8, 2014 requesting a five-year e ension.

If approved by Council the contract would consist of the same terms and conditions as the August 27, 2009 contract. The only modifications to the contract is the retainer amount and Special Services billing rate. The contract allows for Cost of Living Adjustments once per year. Best, Best and Krieger voluntarily waved two COLA' s in 2011 and 2012; therefore, the price in the original contract reflects an increase equal to two out of four COLA adjustments. Other than the two 2% COLA adjustments the price, terms and conditions are all the same as the 2009 contract.

Re: City Attorney Contract
Dear John:

I he Contract with Best Best & Krieger currently has an expiration date of August 27, 2014. The provisions for a five ( 5) year Contract were placed in the Contract for the Council to revicw and determine whether to send out a request for proposals.

I would specifically request that the Contract be extended for an additional five ( 5) year period. It is my considered opinion that we at QB& K have provided an excellent service to the City for many years and wish to continuc to do so into the f'uture. As a matter of information, the Contract allows the City to terminate the Contract on 30 days' notice without a reason stated.

Your aftirmative action to assist in the extension is appreciated and hopefully the Council will agrec.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 25, 2025
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: CONSIDER RELOCATION OF LILY PAD BENCH BY MICHAEL TODD RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the relocation of Lily Pad Bench by Michael Todd from its current location, at the corner of El Paseo and Sage Lane, to the Civic Center Park.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 2004, the City solicited artist-designed benches for El Paseo. From 168 submissions, the Lily Pad Bench by Michael Todd was selected and installed in 2005 at El Paseo and Sage Lane.

Made of five circular aluminum “lily pad” forms, the bench functions as both seating and public art.

Its current location has become less suitable due to changing commercial activity – currently in front of Shake Shack. On April 6, 2025, the City received a report of a pedestrian injury involving the bench, raising concerns that it reduces sidewalk space in an area where outdoor dining now narrows the walkway.

On May 14, 2025, the Cultural Arts Committee reviewed the matter and with a 6-0 vote, recommended relocating the bench to Civic Center Park. City Staff has prepared coordination with the Public Works Department to remove the Lily Pad Bench from its current location and repair the sidewalk, transport, and install at Civic Center Park.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The artwork was purchased in 2004 for $10,000. Relocation costs, including removal, transport, reinstallation, and new signage, are estimated not to exceed $2,500. Funds are available in the approved FY 2025-26 Financial Plan in Public Art Account No. 4364650-4337200. The PW team will allocate approximately 4-8 hours of staff time to this project. There is no other direct impact to the General Fund with this action.

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: May 14, 2025
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR DIRECTION TO RELOCATE OR DEACCESSION OF

LILY PAD BENCH BY MICHAEL TODD
RECOMMENDATION:

Provide direction to staff on the relocation or deaccession of Lily Pad Bench by Michael Todd.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 2004, as part of an initiative to replace standard concrete benches along El Paseo with artistdesigned alternatives, the City issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) seeking public art bench designs. The call received 168 responses, of which 20 were selected for potential use.

Ultimately, the Art in Public Places Commission (AIPP) sponsored the fabrication and installation of one bench: Lily Pad Bench by artist Michael Todd.

The piece was formally approved on May 19, 2004, purchased for $10,000, and installed on February 10, 2005. The sculpture has remained in its original location at the corner of El Paseo and Sage Lane, directly in front of what is now Shake Shack. Constructed of a 1-inch-thick aluminum plate, the work features five circular “lily pad” forms, each 24 inches in diameter.

On April 6, 2025, City Code Enforcement received a complaint from a visitor who reported walking into the bench and sustaining a minor injury while navigating the sidewalk in the evening. The complainant noted that the pedestrian path had become more constrained due to the restaurant’s current outdoor seating configuration, making the bench more of an obstruction to foot traffic.

Given the bench’s age, condition, and evolving pedestrian use patterns along El Paseo, it may be appropriate to consider removing Lily Pad Bench from its current location. As such, Staff recommends relocating the artwork to the City’s new Community Park, where it would remain publicly accessible and integrated into a safer, more spacious environment. Staff is also open to other suggestions from Committee members, provided the new location is in the public right-ofway and not on private property.

Should the Committee determine that relocation is not feasible or appropriate, staff is also open to discussing deaccession of the piece in accordance with the City’s Public Art Deaccessioning Policy.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The bench was originally purchased for $10,000 in 2004. A current appraisal or fair market value has not been established. Estimated costs associated with removal, transportation, and reinstallation—including site preparation and new signage—are not expected to exceed $2,500. 123 125

City of Palm Desert’s Public Art Deaccessioning Policy

DEFINITION
Deaccession means the formal process to permanently remove a City-owned public artwork by selling, donating, or destroying it.

POLICY
A. The purpose of the Public Art Deaccessioning Policy (“Policy”) is to maintain a deaccession program that results in high-quality, City-owned public artwork; eliminate artworks that are unsafe, not repairable, or no longer meet the needs of the City, and respect the creative rights of artists.

B. Although the City of Palm Desert would like each public artwork to remain in situ for a minimum of 15 years (although 15 years is not a limit on the life of an artwork), it recognizes that public artwork is not necessarily going to remain in place in perpetuity.

C. Any proposal for removal, destruction, or relocation of an artwork shall be submitted to the Cultural Arts Committee by City staff and reviewed according to the policies and procedures contained herein and shall be deliberate and independent of political pressures, fluctuations in artistic taste, popularity, and public opinion.

D. At regular intervals, the City’s public artwork collection shall be evaluated by the Cultural Arts Committee to determine the condition of each artwork and determine whether any artwork should be deaccessioned.

APPLICABLE ARTWORK
This Policy applies to all City-owned artwork acquired through the Public Art program or through donation. In the case of donated artwork, all legal documents surrounding the donation must be reviewed and a legal opinion rendered by the City Attorney before proceeding with the deaccessioning process.

CRITERIA FOR DEACCESSIONING
One or more of the following criteria must apply prior to an artwork being deaccessed:

1. Damage Beyond Repair - The artwork has been damaged and repair is unfeasible or repair costs would exceed the value of the artwork.

2. Safety - The artwork is deemed hazardous and a threat to public safety.

3. Deterioration - The artwork has deteriorated to the point that the restoration cost is greater than its monetary value or the artwork has deteriorated beyond the original design and restoration would prove impractical or would render the work essentially false.

4. Security - The condition or security of the artwork cannot be reasonably guaranteed or the City of Palm Desert cannot properly care for or store the artwork.

5. Site Alteration - In the case of site-specific artwork, the artwork has become inappropriate, is no longer accessible to the public, it is unsafe, or it is due to be destroyed and would severely alter its relationship to the site. 125 127
City of Palm Desert’s Public Art Deaccessioning Policy
07/13/2023
[Type here]

6. Excessive Maintenance - The artwork requires excessive or unreasonable maintenance.

7. Loss of Site – The current site is no longer available and no suitable alternate site for the artwork is available.

8. Aesthetic Value - The artwork is of poor quality or is judged to have little aesthetic and/or historical or cultural value.

9. Failure to Comply - If the approved terms of the contract pursuant to which the artwork was installed have not been fulfilled.

10. Inauthentic - The artwork is a forgery or in violation of existing copyright laws.

11. Theft – The artwork has been stolen. Any stolen artwork will be documented through an official police report and a report prepared by the entity that owns or is responsible for the site of loss.

SEQUENCE OF ACTION / PROCEDURES

1. Deaccession requests may be submitted by a neighborhood organization, City department, independent City board or commission, or a City Council member.

The Cultural Arts Committee will review each preliminary request. City staff will work with the applicant to bring a full proposal to the Cultural Arts Committee.

2. Staff will provide the applicant with a Deaccessioning Form that will serve as the applicant’s formal request for consideration by the Cultural Arts Committee.

3. Staff (with assistance from the property owner, if applicable) will make reasonable effort to notify and consult with any living artist(s) whose work is being considered for deaccession as to the best procedure for artwork removal.

The City will allow the artist(s) 30 days to respond.

4. If the artist(s) is/are deceased, the City will make reasonable efforts to contact artist(s) estate.

5. After an attempt to contact the artist(s) is made, staff will consult with the City Attorney on how to proceed with the deaccessioning.

6. Once the request is reviewed by the City Attorney, the applicant will complete and return the Deaccessioning Form.

7. City staff will use the information from the Deaccessioning Form to complete a staff report addressing the proposed removal of the artwork. The staff report will provide all available relevant information and materials to the Cultural Arts Committee, including, but not limited to:
a. Artist, Title, and Location of artwork.
b. Name of property owner and contact information.
c. Property owner at the time of commission or installation. d. Year commissioned/purchased, original cost of artwork, and applicable Art in Public Places (AIPP) fee.
e. Dimensions and removal/re-installation instructions. f. Appraisal of the artwork provided by a qualified art appraiser and current condition of artwork. If appropriate, current fair market value of the artwork.

i. Maintenance evaluation.
j. Any relevant images.

8. The staff report will then be placed on the Cultural Arts Committee agenda at a regularly scheduled public meeting, where it will be reviewed and voted on.

9. If the Cultural Arts Committee approves the deaccession, City staff will bring the staff report before the City Council for review and final action.

10. If deaccession is approved by the City Council, all documents will be updated to reflect the deaccessioning of the artwork. Staff will review property records from the County Recorder’s Office and if an artwork covenant is recorded against the property, the City will cause a release covenant to be filed.

11. The deaccessioning process should be documented in both written and visual form.

12. If an artwork is sold, proceeds should be deposited into the Art in Public Places fund.

13. The City’s Risk Manager must be notified so that the work can be removed from the City’s insurance policy.

DEACCESSIONING METHOD OPTIONS

1. If appropriate, reasonable efforts will be made to move the work to a new location within the City. If the artwork was designed for a specific site, City will consider the artist’s intent when deciding where to relocate the artwork.

2. The artist(s) will be given the first option to purchase or exchange the artwork. If the artist(s) decides to purchase the work, they will be responsible for the cost of the removal of the artwork from the current site. If the artist(s) is/are deceased, the legal heir(s) will have first rights of purchase. The artist(s) can purchase the artwork at fair market value according to the appraisals obtained by a qualified appraiser.

3. Put the work in storage until a new, appropriate location can be found.

4. Donate work to a school, an educational or non-profit organization.

5. Dispose of work in an appropriate manner.

PROVISIONS FOR EMERGENCY REMOVAL
In the event that the structural integrity or condition of an artwork is such that, in the opinion of the Public Art staff, the artwork presents an imminent threat to public safety, the City Manager may authorize its immediate removal without Cultural Arts Committee action or the artist’s consent and have the work placed in temporary storage. The artist and the Cultural Arts Committee will be notified of this action within 30 days. The Committee will then consider options for disposition: repair, reinstallation, maintenance or deaccessioning. If the artwork cannot be removed without being altered, modified, or destroyed, and if the Artist’s Agreement with the City and County has not waived his/her rights under the California Art Preservation Act and the Visual Artists Rights Act, City staff will attempt to gain such written permission before proceeding. In the event that this cannot be accomplished before action is required in order to protect the public health and safety, the City Manager shall proceed with the advice of the City Attorney. 127 129

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 25, 2025
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: APPROVE DEACCESSION OF EL PASEO ENTRY SIGNS BY WATER STUDIO
RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the deaccession of two El Paseo entry signs by Water Studio.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In 2003, the City of Palm Desert commissioned Orr Studio (now Water Studio) to design two entry signs for the El Paseo corridor. The signs were installed at the east entrance at Portola Avenue and the west entrance at Highway 74 as part of the City’s Art in Public Places Program.

Each sign, constructed of copper with bronze patina and an integrated water feature, experienced ongoing deterioration due to the interaction of metal and water, resulting in frequent and costly repairs.

On November 20, 2023, the east entry sign at Portola Avenue was irreparably damaged in a vehicle collision and subsequently removed. The west entry sign at Highway 74 remained in place while replacement options were considered but continued to deteriorate and was removed by Public Works on May 29, 2025, for safety reasons.

On June 11, 2025, the Cultural Arts Committee voted 5-0 to recommend full deaccession of both signs. The artist has been notified and will retrieve the artwork by October 2025.

On September 11, 2025, the City Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement to Selbert Perkins Design, Inc., to work with Public Works on developing designs to replace the two monument signs along the El Paseo Parkway. Once a concept is prepared, Public Works will present the proposed designs to the City Council for review and feedback.

Staff recommends City Council approve the complete deaccession of the two El Paseo entry signs by Water Studio.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The original cost of the artwork was $50,000 in 2004. There is no current appraisal or fair market value available. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund associated with this action.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 11, 2025
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: RECOMMEND THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVE DEACCESSION OF TWO

EL PASEO ENTRY SIGNS BY WATER STUDIO
RECOMMENDATION:

Recommend the City Council approve deaccession of two El Paseo entry signs by Water Studio.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

In September 2003, Palm Desert’s Art in Public Places Commission commissioned two entry signs for the El Paseo business district. Designed by Orr Studio (now operating as Water Studio), the signs were installed in the following locations:

1. El Paseo at CA-74 (West Entry)

2. El Paseo at Portola (East Entry)
Constructed of ridged copper with bronzed patina, each sign measured approximately 4 feet 6 inches wide by 6 feet tall and featured an integrated water element designed to operate yearround. Over time, the combination of water and metal led to repeated deterioration of the fountain components, requiring ongoing and costly maintenance.

On November 20, 2023, the entry sign located at El Paseo and Portola Avenue was struck by a vehicle and sustained irreparable damage, necessitating its immediate removal. At its meeting on January 17, 2024, the Cultural Arts Committee recommended that the City Council approve the deaccession of both entry signs. However, the Committee advised that the sign at CA-74 remain in place until a replacement design was identified. Due to continued structural deterioration, the remaining sign was removed by the City’s Public Works Department on May 29, 2025. The artist has been notified and is scheduled to retrieve the removed sign in late June 2025.

The Public Works Department will lead the planning, design, and installation of new entry signage for the El Paseo business district as part of their wayfinding sign project. Staff recommends approval of the complete deaccession of the two El Paseo entry signs by Water Studio.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The cost of the artwork was $50,000 in January 2004. Staff has no record of current fair market value.

Entry sign located at the Portola/El Paseo entrance was struck by a car in November 2023 and damaged beyond repair.

The sign located at the HWY74/El Paseo entrance is still in place. Fountains/pump in disrepair.

Due to the excessive maintenance issues with the water features, and multiple pump replacements, the fountain has been shut of permanently. Staff recommends keeping the sign in place until a new sign is scheduled for installation.

Proposed deaccessioning and removal method: The City of Palm Desert would like to offer the entry sign back to the Water Studio, provided they agree to deinstall it at a mutually agreed-upon time before the installation of the new sign.

CITY OF PALM DESERT

STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: September 25, 2025
PREPARED BY: Erica Powell, Management Analyst
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION TO PURCHASE RISING INVERSION SCULPTURE BY

CRISTOPHER CICHOCKI
RECOMMENDATION:

1. Approve agreement with artist Cristopher Cichocki in the amount of $150,000 for the purchase of Rising Inversion to be installed at Ironwood Park.

2. Authorize the City Attorney to make necessary non-monetary changes to the agreement.

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute contract and all documents necessary to execute the project.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

Ironwood Park, located at 47800 Chia Drive, is a tranquil desert setting with no existing public art. Acquiring the piece as part of the City’s Public Art Program, the proposed placement of Rising Inversion will offer residents, visitors, and park users an opportunity to engage with largescale contemporary art in a serene and contemplative outdoor space. Staff routinely surveys sites throughout the City for potential public art opportunities, and Ironwood Park was identified as a suitable location due to its undisturbed desert setting, accessible pathways, and the opportunity for the sculpture’s phosphorescent glow to be experienced safely by residents and visitors during dusk hours. An additional benefit of this location is that it currently does not have any public art.

The 12-foot-tall and 40-foot-long sculpture weighs approximately 3,000 pounds. It features a spherical form tapering from five feet deep at the center to one foot at the edges. Its phosphorescent surface absorbs daylight and emits a soft, low-lumen glow at dusk, creating an immersive public art experience without impacting nearby residents.

In addition to its artistic merit and interactive quality, Rising Inversion holds special significance as the work of Cristopher Cichocki, a Palm Desert native whose internationally recognized career in contemporary art reflects the City’s ongoing commitment to nurturing and celebrating local talent. He also has works in permanent collections including the Getty Museum and Palm Springs Art Museum.

The artist will handle site preparation, transportation, and all other related expenses to install the sculpture on-site. Costs for this are included in the purchase price.

Rising Inversion Sculpture Cost Breakdown Amount
Sculpture $ 130,000

City of Palm Desert
Consideration to Purchase Rising Inversion Sculpture by Cristopher Cichocki

Page 2 of 2 ends

Rising Inversion
was originally
commissioned by the Laguna Art Museum for its 11th Annual Art + Nature program. Fabrication was fully funded by the Museum, and the purchase price reflects this prior investment.

On July 9, 2025, the Cultural Arts Committee unanimously recommended, by 6-0 vote, the purchase of the Rising Inversion sculpture by Cristopher Cichocki to be installed at Ironwood Park. This item was also presented at the Parks and Recreation Committee at its regular meeting on August 5, 2025, where the Committee expressed support. This project advances the Cultural Arts Committee’s goals while maintaining the FY 2025–26 Work Plan priorities:

1. San Pablo Roundabout, Phase 2: Request for Qualifications

2. Public Art Programming Subcommittee

3. Utility Cabinet Beautification Review and Refresh
Staff therefore recommends approval of the purchase.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The total cost for the acquisition and installation of Rising Inversion is $150,000. Funds for this purpose are included in the approved FY 2025-26 Financial Plan and Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in Public Art Capital Projects Account No. 4364650-4400100. Therefore, there is no impact on the General Fund with this action.

5 3.2 Time Extension. City agrees to grant reasonable extension of time to Artist in the event of delay on City’s part in performing its obligations under this Agreement or if conditions beyond Artist’s control render Artist’s timely performance impossible or unexpectedly burdensome. Failure to fulfill contractual obligations due to conditions beyond either party’s reasonable control will not be considered a breach of agreement, provided that such obligations are suspended only for the duration of such conditions and the party with knowledge of the condition immediately notifies the other party, in writing, of such condition. Extension of time of performance hereunder may be granted upon the request of one Party and the consent of the other thereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Such extension shall be in writing, signed by both Parties, and attached to the schedule under Section 1.5(B)(i) which is attached as Exhibit "B".

If default is not cured, this Agreement shall terminate as determined by the non-defaulting party. In the event of City’s default, City shall promptly compensate Artist for all services performed by the Artist prior to termination, in accordance with the payment schedule described in Section 2. In the event of Artist’s default, all products prepared and submitted or prepared for submission by Artist under this Agreement shall at City’s option become City’s property; Artist shall not be relieved of liability to City for damages sustained by City by virtue of Artist’s breach of this Agreement. In such event, City may reasonably withhold payments to Artist until the exact amount of damages due to the City from Artist is determined. In addition, the City shall retain the right to have the Artwork completed; however, the Artist shall retain the copyright in the Artwork to the extent it has become fixed in the applicable medium. By Artist allowing for completion of the Artwork by another party in the event of default Artist is agreeing to share copyright in the completed Artwork with the completing party.

1. Description: Spherical formation with a depth ranging from five feet at the center to one foot at the edges. The artwork is fabricated with an inner steel framework. The mass body of the artwork consists of high-density polystyrene coated in 2 layers of smoothed concrete. The concrete surface was primed with industrial strength primer and coated on two sides. Side One – is coated with phosphorescent pigment and Nova Flex Varnish. Sealed with a protective anti-graffiti coating that is UV resistant. Side Two – is coated with high gloss “Aristoshield Black” by Dunn Edwards, a water-based “oil” paint that is industrial-grade. This side will not be sealed with a protective coating.

Stock touch up is the easier solution to eliminate any potential graffiti while maintaining an ultra-high gloss finish that the Aristoshield Black provides. The edges of the artwork are finished with rusted and sealed sheet metal.

Contract No. _______________
10 United States Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.) and is owned by City, for all purposes worldwide, in perpetuity, in any and all media, whether now known or hereafter devised.

Artist understands that the Artwork is to be installed on the Site such that it becomes an integral, permanent and site-specific part of a building and that the operation, management, or other circumstances of the Site, could result in significant alteration of the Artwork or Site. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “alter or alteration,” with respect to the Artwork, shall mean: alter, repair, restore, modify, remove, relocate, sell, dispose of, distort, destroy, mutilate, or deface.

Due to the nature of the Artwork and the public interest of the City, Artist and Artist’s agents, heirs, successors and assigns hereby waive any and all rights and claims they may have against the City, and its employees, and its agents, under the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990, 17 U.S.C. §§ 106A and 113(d) (“VARA”), the California Art Preservation Act, Cal.

Since the Artwork is incorporated into a building at the Site such that it cannot be removed from the building without physical defacement, mutilation, alternation, distortion, destruction, or other modification (collectively, “Modification”), Artist waives any and all such claims under any Moral Rights Laws arising out of or against the City or City’s agents, officers, employees, successors, or assigns for Modification of the Artwork.

If City causes Modification of the Artwork without the Artist’s consent in a manner that is prejudicial to Artist’s reputation, Artist retains the right to disclaim authorship of the Artwork in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 106A (a)(2).

The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions. (m) Pass Through Clause. The Artist agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Project who is brought onto or involved in the Project by the Artist, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of the Artist.

If the City reduces the insurance requirements, the change shall go into effect immediately and require no advanced written notice.
(o) Self-Insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. The City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by the City.
(p) Timely Notice of Claims. The Artist shall give the City prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from the Artist's performance 170

17 under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
(q) Additional Insurance. The Artist shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Services.

SECTION 14. Death or Incapacity of Artist
In the event of the Artist's death or incapacity, as determined solely by the City, rendering the Artist unable to complete the Artwork, the City may elect to complete the Artwork and all payments made up to the point of death or incapacity will be retained by the Artist or the Artist's estate and all work performed by the Artist up to date of death or incapacity will be compensated. Any incomplete Artwork and any materials paid for by the City included in such Artwork will become the property of the City upon payment to compensate the Artist or Artist's estate, for all work performed up to the date of incapacity or death. However, if the Artwork is substantially designed and/or completed, as determined solely by the City, and it is feasible for the Artwork to be fully completed without undue delay, City may elect to proceed under the terms of this Agreement and complete the Artwork with the consent of the Artist, Artist's estate or Artist's legal representative. In such event, all remaining work to be completed in accordance with this Agreement will be delegated to the City Manager. The invocation of this Section by the City shall not render Section 7 ineffective with respect to the Artist's (or Artist's estate's) copyright ownership and reproduction rights.

SECTION 15. Liens
(a) The Artist, subcontractors and suppliers will not make, file or maintain a mechanic's or other lien or claim of any kind or character against the Artwork, for or on account of any labor, materials, fixtures, tools, machinery, equipment, or any other things furnished, or any other work done or performance given under, arising out of, or in any manner connected with the Agreement (such liens or claims referred to as "Claims"); and the Artist, subcontractor and suppliers expressly waive and relinquish any and all rights which they now have, or may subsequently acquire, to file or maintain any Claim and the Artist, subcontractor and suppliers agree that this provision waiving the right of Claims will be an independent covenant. (b) The Artist will save and hold the City harmless from and against any and all Claims that may be filed by a subcontractor, supplier or any other person or entity and the Artist will, at its own expense, defend any and all actions based upon such Claims and will pay all charges of attorneys and all costs and other expenses arising from such Claims.

SECTION 16. Termination of Agreement by City
(a) Should the Artist at any time refuse or fail to deliver the Artwork with promptness and diligence, or to perform any of its other obligations under the Agreement, the City may terminate the Artist's right to proceed with the delivery of the Artwork by written notice to the Artist. In such event the City may obtain the Artwork by whatever method it may deem expedient, including the hiring of another artist and, for that purpose, may take possession of all materials, machinery, equipment, tools and appliances and exercise all rights, options and 171
Contract No. _______________
18 privileges of the Artist. In such case the Artist will not be entitled to receive any further payments until the Artwork is delivered and installed. If the City's cost of obtaining the Artwork, including compensation for additional managerial and administrative services, will exceed the unpaid balance of the Agreement, the Artist will be liable for and will pay the difference to the City.
(b) The City may, for its own convenience, terminate the Artist's right to proceed with the work by written notice to the Artist. Such termination will be effective in the manner specified in such notice, will be without prejudice to any claims which the City may have against the Artist, and will not affect the obligations and duties of the Artist under the Agreement. Upon termination, the Artist shall be compensated only for that Work which has been adequately rendered to the City, and the Artist shall be entitled to no further compensation. The Artist may not terminate this Agreement except for cause. (c) If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein, the City may require the Artist to provide all finished or unfinished documents and data and other information of any kind prepared by the Artist in connection with the performance of the work under this Agreement. The Artist shall be required to provide such document and other information within fifteen (15) days of the request.

ARTIST DESIGN & DESCRIPTION OF ARTWORK

1. Title, Date: Rising Inversion, November 2023 (original dedication date Nov 2023)

2. Description: [type, medium]: Sculpture: Steel frame, polystyrene, concrete, sheet metal, phosphorescent pigment, Nova Flex Varnish, sealed with protective antigraffiti/UV paint,

3. Dimensions: 127” H x 42” W x 450” L above ground dimensions

4. Address/Location(s): Ironwood Park, 47800 Chia Drive

5. Description: Spherical formation with a depth ranging from five feet at the center to one foot at the edges. The artwork is fabricated with an inner steel framework.

The mass body of the artwork consists of high-density polystyrene coated in 2 layers of smoothed concrete. The concrete surface was primed with industrial strength primer and coated on two sides. Side One – is coated with phosphorescent pigment and Nova Flex Varnish. Sealed with a protective antigraffiti coating that is UV resistant. Side Two – is coated with high gloss “Aristoshield Black” by Dunn Edwards, a water-based “oil” paint that is industrialgrade. This side will not be sealed with a protective coating. Stock touch up is the easier solution to eliminate any potential graffiti while maintaining an ultra-high gloss finish that the Aristoshield Black provides. The edges of the artwork are finished with rusted and sealed sheet metal
