City of Palm Desert
Procurement Transparency Report - April 2026
Executive Summary
This report summarizes procurement activity approved under City purchasing authority during the month, including administrative approvals, City Council approvals, active solicitations, and newly approved vendors.
Detailed transaction-level information is included in the appendix for transparency and auditability.
Administrative approvals are made under the City’s purchasing authority in Palm Desert Municipal Code Chapter 3.30.050-3.30.090 and are included here to increase public visibility. City Manager/Designee approvals are made under the City’s purchasing authority under the same chapter. Many of these items are issued under previously approved budgets, existing agreements, task-order/on-call agreements, or approved contingencies. Inclusion in this report is intended to make those administrative approvals publicly visible even when they do not require separate City Council action.
Approved vendor status is not a contract award, purchase order, or guarantee of payment. It means the vendor has completed the City’s vendor review process and may be considered for future work only if services are needed, funding is available and purchasing policy requirements are met.

RE: Letter of Support for PDCMS Charter Renewal
Dear President Alvarez and Members of the Board,
On behalf of the City of Palm Desert, I am writing to express the City’s strong support for the renewal of the Palm Desert Charter Middle School (PDCMS) charter.
For many years, PDCMS has been an important and highly valued part of our community’s educational landscape. The school has earned a strong reputation among Palm Desert families for its academic performance, supportive campus culture, student leadership opportunities, and commitment to student success.
PDCMS has consistently demonstrated excellent CAASPP performance in both English language arts and mathematics, performing above district and state averages and establishing a strong record of academic achievement. The school also provides students with diverse enrichment opportunities through programs such as AVID, visual and performing arts, leadership development, technology, and nationally recognized extracurricular programs. Its achievements, including recognition as a California and National School to Watch and a California Gold Ribbon School, reflect its longstanding commitment to educational excellence.
In addition, the school’s award-winning Color Guard program has earned multiple California state championships and competed at the WGI World Championships against top programs from across the nation, bringing significant recognition and pride to both the school and the Palm Desert community.
The City of Palm Desert has proudly supported PDCMS over the years and continues to recognize the school’s positive impact on local students, families, and the broader 115

community. PDCMS has demonstrated a clear record of success and continues to provide meaningful educational opportunities that benefit our community as a whole.
For these reasons, the City respectfully urges the Desert Sands Unified School District Board of Education to approve the renewal of the Palm Desert Charter Middle School charter.
Thank you for your consideration and for your continued service to the students and families of our community.
Sincerely,

City of Palm Desert Staff Report
Meeting Date: May 28, 2026
Prepared By: Kevin Swartz, Project Manager
Department: Public Works
Subject: Award a Construction Contract to South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc. for Energy-Efficiency Window Replacement at City Hall, Project No. MFA00025 Recommendation
1. Reject August-Jaye Construction, Inc., bid protest dated January 23, 2026.
2. Award a construction contract to South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., for Energy Efficiency Replacement Windows at City Hall in the amount of $247,400, plus a $50,000contingency for unforeseen expenses.
3. Authorize the City Attorney to make necessary non-monetary changes to the agreement.
4. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement and any written requests for change orders up to the contingency amount, amendments, and any other documents necessary to effectuate this action, in accordance with Palm Desert Municipal Code Section 3.30.170(B).
5. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Notice of Completion (NOC) and the City Clerk to file the NOC upon satisfactory completion of the Project.
6. Find that the Proposed Action is Categorically Exempt from CEQA Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Class 1, Existing Facilities.
Executive Summary
Staff recommend awarding a construction contract to South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., for the installation of energy-efficient windows at City Hall. The project will replace exteriorfacing windows that receive significant sun exposure, helping reduce heat gain, improve interior comfort, and support compliance with California Title 24 Energy Efficiency Standards.
South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid in the amount of $247,400 plus a $50,000 contingency for unforeseen expenses. The total recommended authorization is within the approved Fiscal Year 2025-26 Capital Improvement Program budget for Civic Center Complex Improvements.
Background
The City continuously evaluates opportunities to enhance energy efficiency across its facilities, including City Hall. One identified improvement is replacement of exterior-facing windows that are subject to significant sun exposure.
119
The project includes window replacement at the following locations:
City Council Chambers
City Council Offices
Council Chamber Conference Room
Administrative Conference Room
To minimize disruption to City operations and public meetings, construction is scheduled to begin in August during the City Council’s summer recess.
The project was advertised through the City’s bid portal, OpenGov, as Project ID 2025-IFB225. Three bids were received electronically on January 21, 2026:
Contractor Location Total Bid
South Coast Specialty
Construction, Inc.
Anaheim, CA $247,400.00
August-Jaye, Inc. Rohnert Park, CA $554,000.00
M. Brey Inc., dba MBE
Construction
Beaumont, CA $560,569.63
Analysis
On January 23, 2026, the City received a bid protest from August-Jaye Construction, Inc., a bidder on the project. The protest alleges that South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., failed to attend the mandatory pre-bid job walk, which would constitute a material defect in its bid.
Section 2.5 of the Notice Inviting Bids and Section 3.4 of the Instructions to Bidders state that bids will not be accepted by any bidder that did not attend the mandatory pre-bid job walk. The official pre-bid job walk sign-in sheet does not list South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc.; however, it includes John Short of JLM Installations Inc., who attended the job walk.
In response to the protest, South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., clarified that its owner, Brian Starr, also owns JLM Installations Inc., identifying it as a sister company. John Short is also listed as key personnel in South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc.’s bid submission.
Therefore, the issue is not that South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc. failed to attend the Pre-Bid Conference, but that they did not appropriately sign-in.
The City has broad discretion to accept a responsive bid even if there are minor irregularities or mistakes, as long as such mistakes do not affect the price of the bid, or otherwise give a bidder an unfair competitive advantage. Similarly, both the Notice Inviting Bids and Bid Instructions reserve the City’s right to waive informalities or irregularities. While the sign-in sheet for the Pre-Bid Conference should have properly listed South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc., the failure to do so can be waived by the City as an immaterial mistake.
South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc. submitted a total bid of $247,400, which is $252,600 below the approved project budget. Staff reviewed the bid documents and determined that the submission is responsive, responsible, and compliant with all specifications, including completion of all required forms.
Based on this evaluation, staff recommend awarding the construction contract to South Coast Specialty Construction, Inc. The project supports the City’s ongoing commitment to 120
sustainability, energy efficiency, and responsible facility maintenance while enhancing the functionality and comfort of key public spaces within City Hall.
Environmental Review
The proposed action is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301, Class 1, Existing Facilities. The project consists of the replacement of existing exterior-facing windows at City Hall with energyefficient windows, which constitutes repair, maintenance, and/or minor alteration of an existing public structure involving negligible or no expansion of existing use. The City has determined that none of the exceptions to the categorical exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines section 15300.2 applies. Therefore, no further environmental review is required.
Legal Review
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
Financial Impact
Funds for the Civic Center Window Replacement Project were included as part of the approved FY 2025-26 Financial Plan and Capital Improvement Project (CIP) List under the Civic Center Complex Improvements Project. The project including contingency totals $297,400; therefore, there is no additional financial impact on the General Fund.
The following table illustrates funding and current expenses for the Civic Center Complex Improvement Project:

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning; and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the Authority, City of Palm Desert, its elected or appointed officers, and their respective agents, officials, employees, volunteers and representatives, as stipulated in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

Nothing herein shall limit the Authority’s rights or the Contractor or Surety’s obligations under the Contract, law, or equity, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15.
Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the Authority to be, in default under the Contract Documents, the Surety shall remedy the default pursuant to the Contract Documents, or shall promptly, at the Authority’s option:
(1) Take over and complete the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents; or

Contract No. ___________
(2) Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a Contract between such bidder, the Surety and the Authority, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable.
The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the Authority under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the Authority to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents. (3) Permit the Authority to complete the Project in any manner consistent with local, California and federal law and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the Authority under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the Authority to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.
Surety expressly agrees that the Authority may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Contractor.
Surety shall not utilize Contractor in completing the Project nor shall Surety accept a bid from Contractor for completion of the Project if the Authority, when declaring the Contractor in default, notifies Surety of the Authority’s objection to Contractor’s further participation in the completion of the Project.
The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project, including but not limited to the provisions of sections 2819 and 2845 of the California Civil Code.

City of Palm Desert Staff Report
Meeting Date: May 28, 2026
Prepared By: Veronica Chavez, Director of Finance
Department: Finance Department
Subject: Introduction of an Ordinance amending Palm Desert Municipal Code Section
2.52.705(F), "Accrued Vacation Time Buy-Back," to Authorize Tiered Vacation Leave Buy-Back Amounts of Up to One Hundred Sixty (160) Hours per Calendar Year Recommendation
Introduce an ordinance entitled “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Palm Desert, California, Amending Palm Desert Municipal Code Section 2.52.705(F), ‘Accrued Vacation Time Buy-Back,’ to Amend Annual Irrevocable Election Procedures, Increase Eligible BuyBack Amounts, and Authorize a Limited Initial Implementation Transition Election Period,” to authorize eligible employees to buy back up to one hundred sixty (160) hours of vacation leave per calendar year, subject to tiered eligibility thresholds.
Executive Summary
Section 2.52.705(F) of the Palm Desert Municipal Code (PDMC) currently allows regular fulland half-time employees with at least one hundred twenty (120) hours of accrued vacation leave to request monetary compensation for up to eighty (80) hours of accrued vacation leave per calendar year. The proposed amendment modernizes the City’s vacation buy-back program by establishing tiered eligibility thresholds, authorizing up to one hundred sixty (160) hours of vacation buy-back for employees with higher accrued balances, and providing a limited transition election period during initial implementation. The item was included in the 2026 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and is an agreed-upon term in the five-year agreement with the Palm Desert Employees Organization (PDEO), following the City’s meetand-confer process.
Background
Vacation leave buy-back programs are commonly used by public agencies as part of a broader total compensation strategy. When structured with eligibility thresholds, annual caps, and advance election procedures, such programs can provide employee flexibility while helping agencies manage accumulated compensated absence liabilities and reduce large separation payouts.
Section 2.52.705(F) of the Palm Desert Municipal Code ("PDMC") currently permits regular full- and half-time City employees with one hundred twenty (120) hours of accrued vacation leave to request monetary compensation for up to eighty (80) hours of accrued vacation leave per calendar year as long as an irrevocable election has been made in December of the preceding calendar year. Except for this vacation buy-back provision, employees generally cash out accrued vacation leave only upon separation from employment, subject to applicable City policy, employment agreements, collective bargaining agreements, and law. 159
As reflected in Exhibit "A" and the proposed ordinance, the annual maximum vacation buyback amount would be based on the employee’s accrued vacation leave balance as of December 1 of the Election Year:
• Employees with eighty (80) or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to forty (40) hours during the Payout Year.
• Employees with one hundred twenty (120) or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to eighty (80) hours during the Payout Year. • Employees with two hundred (200) or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to one hundred sixty (160) hours during the Payout Year.
During the Payout Year, an employee who made a timely irrevocable election may request payment of all or part of the elected amount in writing, subject to payroll procedures. If an employee made an election but does not request payment by December 1 of the Payout Year, the City will process payment by December 31 of the Payout Year, provided the employee has accrued sufficient vacation leave.
The proposed ordinance also includes a limited initial implementation transition election period.
This provision allows the City Manager or designee to establish an additional one-time election period during the first implementation year so eligible employees may transition into the new structure. The transition election is not intended to create an ongoing mid-year buy-back process and remains subject to the ordinance’s annual maximum of one hundred sixty (160) total buy-back hours per calendar year, payroll procedures, and applicable legal review.
Analysis
The proposed amendment modernizes the City’s vacation buy-back program by creating a tiered structure that aligns payout eligibility with accrued vacation balances. This approach expands employee flexibility while maintaining fiscal and administrative controls. Employees with higher accrued balances would be eligible for higher annual buy-back amounts, up to a maximum of one hundred sixty (160) hours per calendar year.
The amendment supports the City’s recruitment and retention strategy by enhancing the total rewards package without implementing an across-the-board salary adjustment. It also provides a tool to help manage accumulated vacation balances and reduce future separation payout exposure.
The proposed annual irrevocable election process, eligibility thresholds, annual cap, and payroll procedures provide important safeguards. These controls help ensure predictable administration, support compliance with applicable tax and payroll requirements, and limit the City’s annual exposure.
The limited initial implementation transition election period is intended to bridge the prior program and the new structure. Because the transition period applies only during initial 160
implementation and remains subject to the annual 160-hour cap, it provides flexibility without creating an ongoing mid-year election process.
Legal Review
This report has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office.
Financial Impact
The City currently reserves for compensated leave balances, including accrued vacation leave.
Because vacation leave is already an earned compensated absence, the proposed amendment primarily affects the timing and amount of eligible annual payouts rather than creating a new category of liability.
By allowing eligible employees to cash out a larger portion of accrued vacation leave during employment, the City may reduce year-end compensated absence balances and lower future separation payout exposure.
Staff will monitor annual participation, total payout amounts, and changes in accrued leave balances through the City’s regular payroll and financial reporting processes. The maximum annual buy-back remains capped at one hundred sixty (160) hours per eligible employee, subject to accrued balance thresholds, irrevocable election requirements, payroll procedures, and available accrued vacation leave.

EXHIBIT "A"
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO
PALM DESERT MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 2.52.705(F)
VACATION LEAVE BUY-BACK
2.52.705 Vacation leave.
As currently written:
F. Accrued Vacation Time Buy-Back. All regular full and half-time employees with one hundred twenty accrued vacation hours, may, upon written request, be compensated for up to a maximum of eighty hours of accrued vacation per calendar year, instead of taking vacation time off. The same applies to exempt employees in Group A and Group B.
Amended to read as follows:
F. Accrued Vacation Time Buy-Back. Regular full-time and half-time employees, except as otherwise provided by an employment agreement, collective bargaining agreement, or other controlling personnel policy, may make an annual irrevocable election to receive monetary compensation for a portion of vacation leave to be accrued in the following calendar year, subject to the requirements of this subsection.
1. Annual Election Required. On or before December 31 of each calendar year, an eligible employee may submit a written, irrevocable election to buy back a specified number of vacation leave hours to be accrued during the following calendar year. The calendar year in which the election is made is the "Election Year," and the following calendar year is the "Payout Year."
2. Eligibility and Maximum Buy-Back Amounts. An employee's maximum election shall be based on the employee's accrued vacation leave balance as of December 1 of the Election Year, as follows:
a. Employees with 200 or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to 160 hours during the Payout Year.
b. Employees with 120 or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to 80 hours during the Payout Year.
c. Employees with 80 or more hours of accrued vacation leave may elect to buy back up to 40 hours during the Payout Year.
3. Limitation to Payout-Year Accruals. Except as expressly provided in paragraph 6 for the initial implementation period, buy-back payments under this subsection shall apply only to vacation leave accrued during the Payout Year and shall not exceed the amount elected by the employee or the amount of vacation leave actually accrued and available for buy-back during the Payout Year, whichever is less.
4. Payment During Payout Year. During the Payout Year, an employee who made a timely irrevocable election may request payment of all or part of the elected amount in writing, 166
subject to payroll procedures established by the City Manager or designee. Any elected amount not requested for payment by December 1 of the Payout Year shall be paid to the employee on or before December 31 of the Payout Year, provided the employee has accrued sufficient vacation leave and the payment is consistent with applicable law.
5. No Expansion of Leave Accrual or Use Rights. This subsection authorizes monetary compensation for eligible vacation leave only. It does not increase an employee's rate of vacation accrual, modify vacation scheduling requirements, or limit the City's authority to approve or deny vacation use based on operational needs.
6. Initial Implementation Transition Election Period. For the first calendar year in which this subsection is effective, the City Manager or designee may establish one additional transition election period. An eligible employee may submit a written, irrevocable transition election during that period to buy back additional vacation leave hours in the same calendar year, provided that:
a. the transition election shall apply only to vacation leave accrued after the date of the employee's transition election, unless the City Attorney and Finance Director determine that a different treatment is permissible under applicable law and payroll tax requirements;
b. the transition election shall be irrevocable once submitted; c. the employee must satisfy the applicable vacation leave balance threshold as of a date established by the City Manager or designee during the transition election period; d. the total number of vacation leave hours bought back during the initial implementation calendar year shall not exceed 160 hours per employee; and e. the transition election period shall automatically expire at the end of the initial implementation calendar year and shall not apply in any subsequent calendar year unless reauthorized by ordinance.
7. Separation from Employment During Payout Year. If an employee separates from City employment during the Payout Year after making a timely irrevocable election under this subsection, the City shall pay the employee for any elected vacation buy-back hours that have been accrued during the Payout Year and remain available for buy-back as of the employee's separation date. If the employee has not accrued sufficient vacation leave during the Payout Year to satisfy the full amount elected, the City shall pay only the amount of vacation leave actually accrued and available for buy-back as of the separation date. Any elected amount that has not been accrued as of the separation date shall not be payable.
Payment shall be made in accordance with the City's regular payroll procedures and applicable law.
8. Other Vacation Payout Rights Preserved. Nothing in this subsection shall reduce or limit any separate payment for accrued vacation leave otherwise due to the employee upon separation under this Code, an employment agreement, collective bargaining agreement, personnel policy, or applicable law.
167
9. Administrative Procedures. The City Manager or designee may adopt administrative procedures and forms necessary to implement this subsection, including procedures for election deadlines, payroll processing, minimum leave-balance requirements, verification of eligible accruals, treatment of employees who separate employment during a Payout Year, and other procedures necessary to ensure consistent administration and compliance with applicable law.

made us feel included.”

PARTNERSHIP VISION
2027—2029
Fashion Week El Paseo Palm Desert Food & Wine Palm Desert Design Summit 249
Over the past 15 years, Fashion Week El Paseo and Palm Desert Food & Wine have helped position the City of Palm Desert as a premier destination for culture, hospitality, dining, and luxury lifestyle experiences.
Since our last agreement with the City five years ago, the operational landscape has changed significantly. Both events have experienced extraordinary increases in production and operational costs — including entirely new expenses that did not previously exist.
This partnership remains essential to sustaining quality, visibility, and long-term success.
A Proven Partnership

Fashion | Culinary | Design | Culture | Tourism | Economic Activity Looking Ahead: 2027, 2028, 2029
Expanding Palm Desert’s Signature Event Platform
Fashion Week El Paseo and Palm Desert Food & Wine have established strong brand value, regional awareness, and measurable destination appeal for Palm Desert and El Paseo.
Looking ahead, the opportunity is to build on this foundation by expanding the event platform into a broader March destination season centered on:
252
Continuing the Strength
of Palm Desert Food & Wine
Palm Desert Food & Wine has distinguished itself as a celebrity chef-driven event, giving ticket buyers access to internationally and nationally recognized culinary talent.
This celebrity chef component should remain central to the event’s identity and continue serving as one of its strongest branding assets.
It positions Palm Desert Food & Wine beyond a traditional food festival and reinforces Palm Desert as a premier culinary destination.
Palm Desert Food & Wine should continue expanding smaller, curated events throughout the city.
253
New Activation Opportunities
on El Paseo
We are currently exploring expanded event opportunities at two key El Paseo properties:
Mitch’s Restaurant Complex
Now under new ownership, this location presents an opportunity for culinary-focused activations at one end of Palm Desert’s core retail and dining corridor.
The Galleria on El Paseo
Also under new ownership, the Galleria offers significant potential for event programming, hospitality experiences, and merchant engagement.
Together, these properties create opportunities to activate both ends of El Paseo and strengthen the corridor-wide impact of Palm Desert Food & Wine.
254
DSRT Surf:
A New Destination Opportunity
The opening of DSRT Surf presents a unique opportunity for Palm Desert Food & Wine and the City of Palm Desert.
As a distinctive lifestyle and tourism asset, DSRT Surf could support programming unlike anything currently offered within the food and wine festival landscape.
This creates the potential for a signature Palm Desert experience that connects:
Culinary Programming | Hospitality | Tourism | Lifestyle | Outdoor Recreation 255
LAUNCHING MARCH 2027
In March 2027, we plan to launch the Palm Desert Design Summit, a new event designed to elevate Palm Desert and El Paseo as a leading destination for home, design, architecture, art, landscape, and luxury living.
El Paseo has emerged as the desert’s premier home and design district, representing a unique intersection of:
Through curated programming, the Summit will bring this talent to a broader public audience while reinforcing Palm Desert’s leadership in design and elevated lifestyle.
