Item 1D
CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: January 13, 2022 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF NET ENERGY METERING
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Anthony J. Mejia, City Clerk
SUMMARY:
The C
ity Council is requested to adopt a resolution in support of Net Energy Metering (NEM) and authorize Staff to transmit the resolution to Governor Newsom, State Senator Melendez, Assembly Member Mayes, and members of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).
RECOMMENDATION:
Ad
opt a Resolution entitled “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, IN SUPPORT OF NET ENERGY METERING.” BACKGROUND:
Cus
tomers who install small solar, wind, biogas, and fuel cell generation facilities to serve all or a portion of on-site electricity needs are eligible for the state's Net Energy Metering (NEM) program. NEM allows customers who generate their own energy to serve their energy needs directly on-site and to receive a financial credit on their electric bills for any surplus energy fed back to their utility.
The current NEM program was adopted by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) in Decision (D.)16-01-044 on January 28, 2016. The program provides customer- generators rate credits for energy exported to the grid and requires them to pay charges that align NEM customer costs more closely with non- NEM customer costs. NEM is designed to support the installation of customer-sited renewable energy generation.
Recently, the CPUC launched a formal proceeding to update the current NEM structure.
The new rulemaking is referred to as NEM 3.0 because this is the third iteration of the NEM program. Over 17 proposals have been submitted to the CPUC for consideration, including a joint proposal from the state’s big three investor-owned utilities (IOUs), Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison, and San Diego Gas & Electric. Opponents of the big three IOUs’ joint proposal claim that it would hinder the state’s highly successful Item 1D - 1

Resolution in Support of Net Energy Metering
rooftop solar market which is a key strategy in the state reaching its lofty clean energy and environmental goals.
NEM 3.0 is currently progressing through the necessary steps at the CPUC as part of the rulemaking proceeding. While it would be premature at this time to advocate for one particular proposal of the over 17 submitted, the City Council should adopt the attached Resolution, which is general in nature but includes key goals and themes that are consistent with the City’s Sustainability Goals.
These include:
• Protecting and expanding rooftop solar via a strong succeeding NEM tariff and expanding clean energy access by making it easier, not harder, for people to adopt rooftop solar and energy storage in order to meet California's ambiti ous clean energy targets and deploy solar in all communities and households, particularly those struggling to pay for electricity; and
• Expressing its support for the items as stated above, including urging the CPUC to:
(i) strengthen NEM to expand access to all households, particularly those of low- and moderate-income;
(ii) expand access to other clean energy technologies that pair with solar, such as batteries;
(iii) ensure that the solar installations continue to grow in order to meet State and City climate goals; and
(iv) exclude provisions set forth in the IOU Proposal such as high monthly fixed fees and reducing or eliminating credits for sharing electricity with the power grid.
While the big three IOUs’ plan and the solar and environmental advocates’ plan are largely in opposition, a consensus is emerging that a fair and effective rooftop solar policy must share its benefits with low -income and disadvantaged communities that have previously been left out.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Ther
e is no fiscal impact as a result of adopting this resolution.

RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, IN SUPPORT OF NET
ENERGY METERING
WHEREAS, Net Energy Metering (NEM) is designed to support the installation of customer-sited renewable energy generation; and
WHEREAS, NEM allows customers to receive bill credits for power generated by their solar system and shared with the power grid and ultimately save money on their utility bills; and
WHEREAS, NEM is what has allowed solar to become increasingly accessible to low- and moderate-income households; and
WHEREAS, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) has launched a formal proceeding to update the current NEM structure to be introduced in 2022 as NEM
3.0 and a number of parties have submitted their proposal for what they believe NEM 3.0 should look like; and
WHEREAS, the California Investor Owned Uti lities (IOUs), Pacific Gas and Electric, San Diego Gas & Electric , and Southern California Edison, have submitted a joint proposal (the “IOU Proposal”) that calls for drastic changes to NEM that would make customer-sited renewable energy more expensive, increase the amount of time it takes for customers to pay off their systems, and ground to a halt the installation of distributed solar in California; and
WHEREAS, The IOU Proposal would make it impossible for customer -sited renewables to continue to grow sustainably as mandated by law as a result of high monthly fixed fees for all solar installations, and slashing credits customers receive for sharing their excess electricity with the power grid; and WHEREAS, proposals submitted to CPUC by Protect Our Comm unities Foundation, California Solar & Storage Association, Vote Solar, GRID Alternatives, Solar Energy Industries Association, and others not only would encourage new solar adoption but also include additional subsidies for low-income customers; and WHEREAS, California cannot meet its clean energy targets in time with utility-scale solar alone and needs to triple the amount of rooftop solar, as reported by the California Energy Commission 2021 SB 100 Joint Agency Report Summary; and WHEREAS, protecting rooftop solar and expanding access to rooftop solar in communities of concern will help California as well as our own city to move toward 100 percent clean energy, lessen the impacts of the climate crisis, and reduce climate injustices from dirty energy; and
WHEREAS, we are in a climate crisis and need to make the transition to clean energy more accessible.
Item 1D - 3
Resolution No.
NOW,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Palm Springs that it supports protecting and expanding rooftop solar via a strong succeeding NEM tariff and expanding clean energy access by making it easier, not harder, for people to adopt rooftop solar and energy storage in order to meet California's ambitious clean energy targets and deploy solar in all communities and households, particularly those struggling to pay for electricity;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Palm Springs City Council urges the CPUC to:
(i) strengthen NEM to expand access to all households, particularly those of low- and moderate-income;
(ii) expand access to other clean energy technologies that pair with solar, such as batteries;
(iii) ensure that the solar installations continue to grow in order to meet State and City climate goals; and
(iv) exclude provisions set forth in the IOU Proposal such as high monthly fixed fees, and reducing or eliminating credits for sharing electricity with the power grid.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that that copies of this Resolution shall be sent to Governor Gavin Newsom, State Senator Melissa Melendrez, Assemblymember Chad Mayes, and members of the California Public Utilities Commission Board.

DATE: January 13, 2022 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATE (PS&E) AND AUTHORIZATION TO BID THE 202 2 SLURRY SEAL, CITY PROJECT 21-02
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Development Services Department
SUMMARY:
The construction documents (Plans, Specifications and Estimate) for this project have been prepared and in accordance with Section 7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code, the City Council shall approve and adopt the plans, specifications, and working details, and authorize the bid request for all public projects in excess of $200,000.
Approval of this item will allow Staff to proceed with bidding of this capital project, with an estimated cost of $1,000,000. This Project includes slurry seal maintenance of 64 street segments with a total pavement surface of 2.7 million square feet.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the plans, specifications and estimate and authorize Staff to advertise and solicit bids for the 2022 Slurry Seal (“the Project”).
BACKGROUND:
All public streets within the City have been professionally evaluated and assigned a Pavement Condition Index (“PCI”), indicating their condition. Specific ranges of PCI ratings are assigned a letter grade, as shown in Table 1 below.
Table 1
Rating Condition PCI
Range Description
A Good 86 - 100 No significant distress
B Satisfactory 71 - 85
Little distress with the exception of utility patches in good condition or slight hairline cracks; may be
slightly weathered.
C Fair 56 - 70 Slight to moderately weathered, slight distress, possibly patching.
Item 1H - 1
City Council Staff Report
January 13, 2022 -- Page 2
Authorize RFB for City Project 21-02
D Poor 41 - 55
Severely weathered or slight to moderate levels of
distress generally limited to patches and non -load-
related cracking.
F Very Poor 0 - 40
Severely distressed or large quantities of distortion
or alligator cracking. Failure of the pavement,
distress has surpassed tolerable rehabilitation
limits.
Al
l streets require regular maintenance to improve their condition and extend the life of the pavement surface. Slurry seals are a maintenance function that is intended to sustain the lifespan of streets that predominantly fall into Condition B. The purpose of a slurry seal is to maintain these streets on the higher end of the PCI range and prevent them from falling into a category where more costly repairs become necessary. An additional benefit of a slurry sealing project is the refreshment of pavement striping and markings.
Typically, the City performs a slurry seal project each year . The last slurry seal project [City Project 20-02, the 2020 Slurry Seal (re-bid)], was completed in July of 2021.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The l
ist of recommended streets for the 2022 Slurry Seal is included as Attachment 1, with corresponding maps included as Attachment 2.
With City Council approval, Staff will advertise the Project in T he Desert Sun, and utilize the procurement program, “PlanetBids”™, to allow the submission of bids electronically.
The contract documents will be provided free of charge to prospective bidders through the PlanetBids™ system.
St
aff recommends that the City Council approve the contract documents and authorize Staff to formally solicit construction bids for the Project.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
Sec
tion 21084 of the California Public Resources Code requires Guidelines for Implementation of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). The Guidelines are required to include a list of classes of projects which have been determined not to have a significant effect on the environment and which are exempt from the provisions of CEQA. In response to that mandate, the Secretary for Resources identified classes of projects that do not have a significant effect on the environment and are declared to be categorically exempt from the requirement for the preparation of environmental documents. In accordance with Section 15301(c) “Existing Facilities,” Class 1 projects consist of operation, repair, and maintenance of existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities, therefore, the 2022 Slurry Seal, City Project No. 2 1-02, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA, and a Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Riverside County Clerk Item 1H - 2

City Council Staff Report
January 13, 2022 -- Page 2
Amendment No. 2 – Dokken Engineering – South Palm Canyon Dr Low Water Crossing On May 7, 2020, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to Professional Services Agreement No. 5701 with Dokken Engineering in the amount of $112,500, for a new total contract amount of $794,605. Amendment No.1 was intended to incorporate comments from the Committee to Save Oswi t Canyon (Committee). The Committee’s comments were intended to refine and minimize the footprint of flood control berms and structure of the bridge.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
On O
ctober 30, 2020, the efforts to resolve the litigation between the Committee, City, and the Oswit Canyon Property owners reached a conclusion with the Committee’s acquisition of the Oswit Canyon Property.
After the settlement with the parties was complete, Staff requested additional design modifications to further conform to the comments provided by the Committee. The proposed changes that are needed will require additional coordination with Southern California Edison to relocate electrical facilities; the hydrology of the minimized channel footprint needs to be reevaluated; and additional structural revisions are needed to accommodate a more natural looking channel design.
Dokken Engineering has provided a proposal to Staff to perform the requested additional engineering design services. Staff has prepared Amendment No. 2 in t he amount of $93,979.60 to the Professional Services Agreement No. 5701 with Dokken Engineering, for a new total cost of $888,033.60. A copy of the amendment is included as Attachment B.
Approval of the amendment will allow Staff to coordinate with Dokken Engineering to reduce the Project’s footprint to the greatest extent feasible, while achieving the goal of providing an all-weather access for the South Palm Springs community. Therefore, Staff recommends the City Council approve Amendment No. 2.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
On J
anuary 18, 2012 , the City Council approved Resolution No. 23076, adopting and ordering the filing of a Mitigated Negative Declaration for the Project. Subsequently on January 23, 2012, Staff filed the Notice of Determination with the Riverside County Clerk and State Clearing House.
The Project is funded in part by federal funds, requiring local oversight by Caltrans. As a federally funded project, it is subject to review pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). On February 6, 2012, Caltrans , as the lead agency, made an environmental determination that the Project does not individually or cumulatively have a significant impact on the environment as defined by NEPA and is excluded from the requirements to prepare an Environmental Assessment (EA) or Environmental Impact Item 1I - 2

RE: South Palm Canyon Drive Bridge – City Project #06-18 (DE#1715) Request for Contract Amendment No. 2
Dear Mr. Montalvo:
As requested, Dokken Engineering will perform the following additional work to prepare this project for bidding in the Fall of 2023 (or have shelf-ready if funding is not yet available):
Additional utility coordination with Southern CA Edison (SCE) to relocate existing concrete encased electrical facilities and relocate street light. Continued coordination with other utility agencies based on updated design/timeline. o To be completed under Existing Task 2.1 – Utility Coordination Recertification of Right of Way (ROW) with Caltrans Local Assistance at the time of the submittal of the RFA for CON. Construction is anticipated to take 18-24 months and Temporary Construction Easements are set to expire in July 2025, therefore if recertification of ROW is beyond 2023, then extension of TCEs a second time will likely be required. TCE Extensions are not included in this amendment request. o To be completed under Existing Task 2.5 – Final Design ROW Support Re-evaluate channel hydrology and revise channel improvements to improve aesthetics, stay within ROW, and look as natural as possible given the hydraulic needs. Re-evaluate the proposed drainage system and secondary flood plain near Bogert Trail with updated storm water data and design standards. o To be completed under Existing Task 2.7 – Final Hydrology Analysis Additional structural work to remove and replace existing masonry retaining wall and revise the warped wing wall design per the channel grading changes. Grading revisions to the northern/southern berms, and channel bottom to reflect channel hydrology analysis. Berm grading revisions to conform to the existing dirt access road that runs north/south through the channel area. Stage construction plan revisions to ensure Bogert Trail accessibility in both directions throughout construction. o To be completed under Existing Task 2.8 – Final Design Revisions As summarized in the table below, our total additional fee for completing the work described herein will be Ninety-Three Thousand Nine Hundred Seventy-Nine Dollars and Sixty Cents, $93,979.60. We will proceed with this work upon receipt of notice to proceed from the City.

AUTHORIZATION TO BID THE ROSA PARKS ROAD AND INDIAN
CANYON DRIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL INSTALLATION, CITY PROJECT NO. 20-19
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Development Services Department
SUMMARY:
The construction documents (plans and specifications) for the installation of a traffic signal on North Indian Canyon Drive have been completed, and in accordance with Section
7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code, the City Council is required to approve and adopt plans, specifications and working details, and authorize the bid request for all public projects in excess of $200,000. Approval of this action will allow Staff to proceed with bidding of this capital project, with an estimated cost of $450,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the plans, specifications and estimate and authorize Staff to advertise and solicit bids for the Rosa Parks Road and Indian Canyon Drive Traffic Signal Installation, City Project No. 20-19 (“the Project”).
BACKGROUND:
On January 8, 2019, City Staff attended a Desert Highland/Gateway Neighborhood meeting held at the James O. Jessie Desert Highland Unity Center to address traffic calming concerns along Tramview Road and Rosa Parks Road. From this meeting, it was determined that the community requested the installation of rubberized speed cushions along both streets in the immediate future, and long term, requested a traffic signal study to assess if a traffic signal could be installed at either Tramview Road & Indian Canyon Drive, and/or Rosa Parks Road & Indian Canyon Drive.
On November 18, 2019, after the completion of the rubberized speed cushion study, Staff requested proposal s from the City’s on- call traffic engineering consultants for a traffic signal warrant analysis for the intersections of Tramview Road and Indian Canyon Drive, and Rosa Parks Road & Indian Canyon Drive. See Figure 1 , Site Plan, on the following page.

Figur
e 1 – Site Plan
On December 2, 2019, a purchase order was issued to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., for a traffic signal warrant analysis report. Traffic data was collected the following month assessing volumes (vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists), peak times, field observations, sight distance, roadway network connectivity, accident data, and proximity to schools.
On March 10, 2020, Kimley-Horn issued a report which concluded that a traffic signal was justified at Rosa Parks Road & Indian Canyon and a traffic signal was not warranted at the intersection of Tramview Road & Indian Canyon Drive. Based on this report, the following week, City Council authorized Staff to proceed with the design and installation of the proposed traffic signal. However, due to the pandemic, the project was placed on hold for three months.
On June 30, 2020, proposals were requested from the City’s on-call traffic engineering consultants to provide plans, specifications, and an estimate (PS&E) for the installation of a traffic signal at Rosa Parks Road & Indian Canyon Drive.
On September 23, 2020, a purchase order was issued to Albert A . Webb Associates (Webb) to provide design services. Over the course of the next 13 months, Staff worked closely with Webb to produce the PS&E documents needed to bid and construct the subject project. Note, the project was delayed several times due to C OVID-19 impacts and a change in scope to include another warranted traffic signal at a different location Item 1J - 2

Authorize RFB for City Project 20-19
(City Project 20 -33, San Rafael Drive and Avenida Cabal leros). The documents were completed in November 2021.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The c
ontract documents for the Project prepared by the City’s traffic engineering consultant, Webb, have been reviewed and approved by Staff . The scope of the Project includes the installation of a fully functional controller cabinet, electrical service pedestal, traffic signal pole and equipment, video camera detection, emergency vehicle preemption, signal interconnect system, ADA ramps, striping, and any other appurtenant work. The plans are on file with the City Clerk.
With City Council approval, Staff will advertise the Project in The Desert Sun and through the procurement program, PlanetBids™, to allow the submission of bids electronically.
The contract documents will be provided free of charge to prospective bidders through the PlanetBids™ system.
St
aff recommends that the City Council approve the contract documents and authorize Staff to formally solicit construction bids for these projects.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
In ac
cordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15303 “New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures”, Class 3 projects consist of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made in the exterior of the structure. Therefore, Staff has determined that the Rosa Parks Road and Indian Canyon Drive Traffic Signal Installation, City Project No. 20- 19, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A t
otal of $869,678 is available for the Project through Senate Bill 1 (SB1), funded through the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). Budgeting for this project was approved by City Council on May 27, 2021. The expected construction estimate for the Project is approximately $450,000, not including staff and inspection costs.

MobileMoney, Inc., License Agreement A6456, Amendment No. 1 BACKGROUND:
Fol
lowing a competitive public solicitation procurement process in October 2018 (RFP 03-19), the City Council at its meeting of December 19, 2018, approved a license agreement with MobileMoney, Inc. , for the operation of three (3) Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) at the Palm Springs International Airport; one located in the main terminal and one located in each of the two Airport concourses. The original term of the License Agreement was for three years, with two additional one- year options, effective January 15, 2019.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Al
though the initial impact of the COVID -19 pandemic began in March 2020, the ATM industry continues to be impacted by the infrequent use of cash, increased use of plastic or digital payments, and the increased costs to transport cash in armored courier vehicles.
In order for MobileMoney to continue operations at the A irport and supply passengers with the option to withdraw cash, MobileMoney is proposing to modify their License Agreement in Amendment No. 1.
Under
this modified License Agreement , MobileMoney will provide and maintain the existing ATMs that are fully ADA compliant and continuously available. MobileMoney has proposed increasing the customer fee from $3.50 per withdrawal to $3.95 per withdrawal, with no other customer transaction fees. The proposal includes a reduction in the license fee for the Airport , from $1.85 to $0.75 per transaction occurring at the ATMs . The following table indicates the number of cash withdrawal transactions over calendar years 2019, 2020 and 2021.

MobileMoney, Inc., License Agreement A6456, Amendment No. 1 Staff is requesting City Council approv al of Amendment No. 1 to License Agreement A6456 with MobileMoney, Inc. If the Amendment is not approved, the Airport will need to prepare and release an RFP for Automated Teller Services to assist the passengers with cash withdrawal options, a process which will likely take several months.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The r
equested City Council action is not a “Project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15378(a), a “Project” means the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. According to Section 15378(b), a Project does not include: (5) Organizational or administrative activiti es of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Bas
ed on the number of monthly transactions in 2020 and 2021, Staff anticipates t he annual revenue generated from the ATM License Agreement to be approximately $2,000.

AUTHORIZATION TO BID THE SAN RAFAEL DRIVE AND AVENIDA
CABALLEROS TRAFFIC SIGNAL INSTALLATION, CITY PROJECT NO. 20-33.
FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Development Services Department
SUMMARY:
The c
onstruction documents (plans and specifications) for the subject project have been completed, and in accordance with Section 7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code, the City Council is required to approve and adopt plans, specifications and working details, and authorize the bid request for all public projects in excess of $200,000.
Approval of this action will allow Staff to proceed with bidding of this capital project, with an estimated cost of $500,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Appr
ove the plans, specifications and estimate and authorize Staff to advertise and solicit bids for the San Rafael Drive and Avenida Caballeros Traffic Signal Installation, City Project No. 20-33 (“the Project”).
BACKGROUND:
On A
ugust 1, 2016, communi ty representatives comprised of residents living in the neighborhoods within proximity of San Rafael Drive and Avenida Caballeros (See Figure 1, on the following page), contacted the Engineering Division to request installation of a traffic signal or all-way stop at the intersection. Based on a warrant analysis at the time, an all-way stop-controlled intersection was not warranted.
On June 11, 2018, residents raised their concerns regarding speeding and unsafe turns from Avenida Caballeros onto San Rafael Drive . The previous study from 2016 was still valid, and the accident data at the time did not meet the requirements for further review.

Figure 1 – Site Plan
On July 31, 2019, due to continued safety concerns raised by residents, the City Engineer requested a new multi-way stop and traffic signal warrant study be conducted.
On March 11, 2020, the final traffic study report was completed. It indicated that, based on the rate of collision history, a traffic signal is justified to improve the overall safety and/or operation of the subject intersection.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The contract documents for the Project prepared by the City’s on -call traffic engineering consultant, Webb Associates, have been reviewed and approved by Staff . The scope of the Project includes the installation of a fully functional controller cabinet, electrical service pedestal, traffic signal pole and equipment, video camera detection, emergency vehicle preemption, signal interconnect system, ADA ramps, striping, and any other appurtenant work. The plans are on file with the City Clerk.
With City Council approval, Staff will advertise the Project in The Desert Sun and through the procurement program PlanetBids™ to allow the submission of bids electronically. The contract documents will be provided free of charge to prospective bidders through the PlanetBids™ system.
Staff recommends the City Council approve the contract documents and authorize Staff to formally solicit construction bids for these projects.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
In ac
cordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15303 “New Construction or Conversion of Small Structures”, Class 3 projects consist of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made in the exterior of the structure. Therefore, Staff has determined that the San Rafael Drive and Avenida Caballeros Traffic Signal Installation, City Project No. 20- 33, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A t
otal of $834,600 is available for the Project through Senate Bill 1 (SB1), funded through the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). Budgeting for this project was approved by City Council on May 27, 2021. The expected construction estimate for the Project is approximately $500,000, not including staff and inspection costs.

FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Community & Economic Development Department
SUMMARY:
Under t
he Redevelopment Dissolution Act, the Successor Agency is required to approve a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) and submit it to the County Auditor- Controller, the State Department of Finance (DOF), and the State Controller’s Office.
After review and approval by the City Council acting as the Successor Agency, the ROPS must be approved by the County-wide Oversight Board (COB). This ROPS covers the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023, separated into two six -month periods.
The ROPS will subsequently be presented to COB and submitted to the Department of Finance and County Auditor-Controller prior to the deadline of February 1, 2022.
The Successor Agency is also required to approve an administrative budget in an amount not to exceed the maximum permitted under the Redevelopment Dissolution Act.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt
Resolution No. ______, “A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, ACTING SOLELY IN ITS CAPACITY AS
SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE PALM SPRINGS COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCY, APPROVING THE RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE (ROPS 22-23 A&B) AND AN ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE BUDGET FOR THE PERIOD OF JULY 1, 2022 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2023, PURSUANT TO THE CALIFORNIA HEALTH & SAFETY CODE.”
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The RO
PS is the document used by the DOF to determine the amount of Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) moneys the Successor Agency will be allowed to retain Item 1N - 1
to meet approved obligations of the Successor A gency, as well as the amount of the Successor Agency's allowable administrative budget. ROPS 22-23 is segregated into two six-month periods – July to December 2022, and January to June 2023.
After approval by the Successor Agency, the ROPS will be submitted to the COB for approval, and after their approval, to the Department of Finance. ROPS 22-23 must be approved by the COB and submitted to the DOF no later than February 1, 2022. The COB meets on January 20, 2022.
The COB requires that the City file a Notice of Exemption under CEQA relating to the ROPS, and direction to Staff to do so after approval of the COB resolution is included in the resolution approving the ROPS 22-23.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The requested Successor Agency action is not a “Project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines because there is no possibility that the activities in question will have a significant impact on the environment and the amendment is merely the adoption of annual budget; it will not require any construction activities and will not lead to any direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical environmental impacts.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total enforceable obligations for Fiscal Year 2022-23 are $4,607,228. The obligations are funded with a combination of RPTTF, funds unspent in the prior ROPS period, and bond reserves funded in the prior ROPS period as required by the bond indentures.
The maximum amount of the allowable administrative budget for the Fiscal Year is $250,000, which is allocated to salaries and benefits as shown below:
40000 Salaries 175,896
41450 Telecommunication 258
41600 PERS Contribution 47,418
41700 Medicare Tax 2,551
41900 Fringe Benefits 23,619
41930 RHS Health Benefit 258
Total $250,000
The maximum allowance for administrative costs does not cover the total of such costs incurred by the City to administer the winding down of the former Redevelopment Agency’s operations . Additional expenses not covered by the maximum allowance include additional salaries of personnel allocable to the Successor Agency, legal costs of Item 1N - 2
the Successor Agency, costs to prepare and administer the ROPS and audit of the Successor Agency’s financial statements, which total approximately $50,000. Such costs are paid by the General Fund. If any of the $250,000 allowance remains after payment of salaries, those funds will be applied to such other additional administrative costs.

______________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY:
Thi
s action approves Amendment No. 1 to the agreement with Tysen Knight Productions (Agreement) for repair and maintenance services for Public Arts projects, as recommended by the Public Arts Commission. This amendment will extend the agreement to June 30, 2022 , for an additional amount not to exceed $5,000 and brings the total contract amount to $10,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approv
e Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Tysen Knight Productions for Public Arts projects repairs and maintenance services in the amount of $5,000 for a total contract amount of $10,000.
BACKGROUND:
At
their meeting of January 15, 2020, the City’s Public Arts Commission approved a Community Grant program for neighborhood associations and business districts. As part of that grant program, the Commission approved a pilot program for a Public Bench Art project in Downtown. The pilot program began in June 2020 and included the painting of City-owned public benches on North Palm Canyon Drive between Alejo Road and Andreas Road. The program was later expanded to include additional benches, for a total of approximately 50 City-owned public benches being painted as part of the Bench Art Project.
To maintain and repair Public Bench Art pieces, the Public Arts Commission approved an agreement with Tysen Knight in the amount of $5,000 for maintenance of and repairs to completed Public Arts projects through December 31, 2021. Under the terms of the Item 1O - 1

agreement, Tysen Knight repairs damage and graffiti to City benches painted as part of the Arts Commissi on’s Downtown Bench Art Program, as well as repair damage and graffiti to the Commission’s “Stop in the Name of Love” electrical utility box art project on an as-needed basis.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The
Public Arts Commission is requesting the Agreement with Tysen Knight be extended to June 30, 2022, for an additional amount not to exceed $5,000, bringing the total contract amount to $10,000.
Tysen Knight has provided artistic services to the Public Arts Commission since 2019, when he completed the first pilot project of ten painted benches in the City’s downtown, and subsequently has consulted on all three phases of the recently completed Bench Art Project. Due to the numerous occurrences of vandalism (graffiti and other damage) to the downtown benches and other public art, Mr. Knight has been utilized on an “on-call” basis to perform various repairs. This agreement will allow Mr. Knight to respond quickly to vandalism issues and ensure that the public art is restored.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Am
endment No. 1 is for an additional six-month term ending June 30, 2022, in the amount of $5,000. Sufficient funding is available in the Public Arts Fund, Fund 150.

SUMMARY:
The Coachel
la Valley Small Business Development Center (SBDC) operates programs in partnership with lending institutions and government entities to assist entrepreneurs with starting businesses and has requested to work with the City of Palm Springs to operate such a program , called Palm Springs Made (Program). The Program provides entrepreneurs with four classes on starting a business, assistance with setting up the actual businesses and helping them through proof of concept where the program participants make actual sales. SBDC also partners with Sun Community Federal Credit Union, located in Palm Springs, which will provide a $250 grant to Program participants and help them improve their credit scores. SBDC is requesting the City of Palm Springs provide a matching grant of $250 for Program participants and waive or reimburse the participant’s business license and VillageFest fees as applicable.
RECOMMENDATION
1) Approve the w
aiver or reimbursement of Business License and VillageFest fees as applicable for Palm Springs Made Business Startup Program Participants. 2) Appropriate $7,500 to provide a $250 matching grant for approximately 30 Palm Springs Made Business Startup Program Participants.
3) Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents
BACKGROUND
According to the Economic Innovation Group, a Washington research organization, regarding business startups “The pandemic forced a big realignment that would never have been seen otherwise.” In addition, according to the United States Census Bureau, Americans filed paperwork to start 4.3 million businesses last year, a 24 percent increase from the year before and applications are on a pace to be even higher this Item 1P - 1
year. This wave of entrepreneurial activity provides a potential source of job growth, innovation, and economic resiliency. This is particularly important for California which, according to the UC Berkeley Labor Center, experienced massive job losses compared to the nation as a whole and is still a long way from fully recovering. As individuals suffer job losses, reduced hours, and income, some began pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. Examples of such cases are below:
• Songlorious – Omayya Atout and Ellen Hodges were aspiring musicians in New York, with day jobs. Ms. Hodges was working as a barista in a Manhattan coffee shop and Mr. Atout had a job as a civil engineer at Amtrak. When the pandemic hit, the coffee shop sent workers home, and Mr. Atout’s salary was cut. They set up a website and opened a business, Songlorious, writing custom songs for weddings, birthdays and similar events. Within weeks, they had more business than they could handle and began hiring other musicians to help out. Mr. Atout quit his railroad job to work on the venture full time. • QuickHire – QuickHire is a career discovery platform for the service economy workforce started by Deborah Gladney and her sister Angela Muhwezi -Hall in Wichita Kansas during the pandemic. In this case , the pandemic provided a business opportunity as companies were struggling to find workers. QuickHire partners with job seekers to find career fulfillment by finding the right job and advancement opportunities. Gladney and Muhwezi -Hall are believed to be the first Black women entrepreneurs in Kansas to raise $1 million in seed funding.
To ass
ist entrepreneurs with navigating the process of starting a business , and access other business assistance resources, the SBDC has launched programs to train aspiring entrepreneurs in starting their businesses and would like to start a new program in the City of Palm Springs.
STAFF ANALYSIS
The prop
osed Program is four -week program that aims to assist start -up businesses with entering the marketplace to validate their concept and catalyze growth. Over this four-week period, participants will create their business, build their Palm Springs MADE Marketplace vending booth and create a successful e-commerce website.
Participants will learn about planning, marketing, financing, management and best practices in business and sales. This quick-paced program will accelerate their business concepts in just a few weeks and give participants the opportunity to make their micro- entrepreneurship business dreams a reality. There is no cost to participate in this program and participants will have the opportunity to meet one- on-one with a SBDC consultant.
Participants will attend a four -week program that meets one- time each week for two hours. Training topics include:
Item 1P - 2
• Developing Your Business
• Market Booths and Branding
• Financials and Online Presence
• Marketing and Marketplace Logistics
• Make the first sale
Business startup costs can range from $650 and above for fictitious business names, City fees, permits, and insurance. Annual vendor fees can start from $2,200. The Program would help offset these costs, while still requiring the entrepreneurs to invest their own resources . The SBDC consultants will also help the entrepreneurs avoid potential pitfalls.
As proposed, the City of Palm Springs ’ participation would include waiving or reimbursing City Business License and VillageFest fees as applicable and provid e a match of $250 for approximately 30 Palm Springs Made Business Startup Program Participants. Sun Community Federal Credit Union will also provide a $250 grant to Program participants, waive bank fees for new accounts, and counsel participants on improving their credit scores. The Program would be free of charge to participants.
SBDC has had success with this program in the Cities of Orange and Coachella. OC MADE was launched in cooperation with the Orange County Swap Meet and has graduated 150 businesses in four cohorts. The City of Coachella used CDBG money to match grants from Rabo Bank to help start businesses.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of
this action would require the appropriat ion of $7,500 from the Economic Development Budget to provide a $250 matching grant for approximately 30 Palm Springs Made Business Startup Program Participants. Business License fees for home occupation businesses are approximately $133 per business. If 30 businesses participate, a total of $3,990 for business license fees would be waived or reimbursed.
Without knowing what types of businesses will participate, it is difficult to determine vendor fee reimbursement or waivers for VillageFest ; however, i t is estimated this amount would be approximately $15,000.

Staff reviewed all bid documents submitted by the apparent low bidder and determined that SDC Engineering, Inc. complies with the instructions to bidders and has submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the bid submitted by SDC Engineering, Inc. A construction agreement is included as Attachment C.

FROM: Justin Clifton, City Manager
BY: Development Services Department
SUMMARY:
The c
onstruction documents (Plans, Specifications and Estimate) for the subject project are completed and in accordance with Section 7.03.040 of the Procurement and Contracting Code, the City Council shall approve and adopt the plans, specifications, and work details, and authorize the bid request for all public projects that are more than $200,000. Approval of this item will allow Staff to proceed with the bidding for the construction of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Digester No. 2 and Gas Flare, City Project 2 0-25 and the Filtrate Pump Station, City Project 21 -07, with a combined estimated cost of $18,200,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
Appr
ove the plans, specifications, and estimate; and authorize Staff to advertise and solicit bids for the WWTP Digester No. 2, Gas Flare and Filtrate Pump Station, City Projects 20-25 and 21-07 (“Project”).
BACKGROUND:
On A
pril 21, 2010, the City Council approved the Wastewater Treatment Plant Capital Repair and Rehabilitation Plan. Staff identified 30 capital projects required at the City’s WWTP at a projected cost of $67 million. The City Council authorized staff to proceed with five projects considered top priority. This was the Digester No. 1 Rehabilitation Project, Plant Reclaimed Water Upgrades, Gravity Thickener Upgrades, New Perimeter Security Fence, and Electrical System Update. The total for these projects was $8 million.
On December 7, 2016, the City Council awarded a construction contract for the WWTP Upgrades Project. This included many of the remaining projects considered top priority, which were the new Headworks, Primary Clarifiers, Influent Pump Station, and Sludge Centrifuge. The project was completed in 2018 at a total cost of $31.4 million.
Item 1R - 1
City Council Staff Report
January 13, 2022 -- Page 2
City Projects 20-25 and 21-07
On November 14, 2018, the City Council authorized a Purchase Order to MWH Constructors, Inc., (now Stantec) to update the prior 2010 Wastewater Treatment Plant Capital Repair and Rehabilitation Plan and complete a rate study.
On April 22, 2021, the City Council reviewed and approved the 2021 Wastewater Capital Rehabilitation and Repair Plan. The 2021 Plan i ncluded a 5- Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for the WWTP, identifying 14 projects totaling approximately $80 million, with no increases to the rate payers for the next five years. The WWTP Digester No. 2 and Gas Flare Project and the Filtrate Pump Station Project are priorities of the CIP.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
This Project will replace the existing 60-year-old Digester No. 2, replace the existing 40- year-old gas flare, and construct a new filtrate pump station to replace the existing pump station at the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The existing Digester No. 2 has been placed out of service since June 2020 because the digester needs costly repairs. The digester is also not in compliance with current seismic codes and is at risk of failure should a strong earthquake affect the facility. The City’s consultants did an analysis of several options of repair or replacement of the digester considering the cost, footprint, robustness, reliability, and ease of operation. Staff selected a replacement of the digester as it will provide the longest design life, have the least risk during seismic events, will bring the facility up to current wind, seismic and building codes, and can be achieved without interrupting the current oper ation of the WWTP.
Biogas is formed during a process that occurs in the digesters. The biogas collected from the digesters gets piped to a boiler room and the remaining gas goes to a waste gas flare.
The existing gas flare needs to be upgraded due to new air quality regulations. The new flare will need to be under construction in 2022 to meet compliance deadlines.
The filtrate pump station currently takes the residual fluid or “filtrate” from several different processes at the WWTP and pumps it back to the start to get reprocessed . The current pumps were already upsized once and are still not able to keep up with high flows that occur when several of the processes are running at the same time. This P roject will replace the existing filtrate pump well and turn it into a junction structure to collect the filtrate from the various processes. Then a new filtrate pump station, with pumps that are adequately sized for the upcoming planned upgrades at t he WWTP, will be built next to it.
By building the Filtrate Pump Station Project together with the Dig ester No. 2 and Gas Flare Project, the City can remove redundant tasks between the projects. This will be a significant cost savings to the City . Staff, the plant operators , and the design team recommend constructing them at the same time. Stantec has completed the preparation Item 1R - 2
City Council Staff Report
January 13, 2022 -- Page 3
City Projects 20-25 and 21-07
of plans and specifications for the Project. The contract documents prepared by Stantec have been reviewed and approved by the City’s Engineering Division.
With City Council approval, Staff will advertise the Project in The Desert Sun and post the Project on the City’s on-line bid management system. Copies of the contract documents are on file with the Engineering Division. The following tentative schedule has been identified for the bid process:
Notice Inviting Bids to be posted: January 18, 2022
Deadline for receipt of bids: February 24, 2022
Contract awarded by City Council: March 24, 2022
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the contract documents and authorize Staff to formally solicit construction bids for the Project.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15302 “Replacement or Reconstruction”, Class 2 projects consist of replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced. Therefore, Staff has determined that the C ity of Palm Springs Wastewater Treatment Plant Digester No. 2, Gas Flare and Fi ltrate Pump Station Improvement Project , City Project s No. 20- 25 and 21- 07, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are budgeted and available in the Wastewater Fund. The Project is a part of the 2021 Wastewater Capital Rehabilitation and Repair Plan, which identifies capital projects directly related to the City’s WWTP or sanitary sewer collection system. Projects identified in the plan are paid for by sewer fees collected by the City.

City Council Staff Report

Replacement of Fire Department SCBA
BACKGROUND:
The Fi
re Department currently uses Scott Safety Air -Pak75 for entering Immediate Dangerous Life Health (IDLH) environments. In 2018 , the National Fire Protection Association ( NFPA) updated its s tandard on Open- Circuit Self -Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA s) for Emergency Services , NFPA 1981. The key change was the requirement of a new universal emergency breathing safety system connection point. The Air-Pak75 SCBAs currently used by the Fire Department do not have the universal emergency breathing safety system connection point , and the manufacturer does not make a retrofit kit; thus, the Air-Pak75 SCBAs currently do not meet NFPA 1981 standards.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The Depar
tment’s current Air-Pak75 SCBAs are no longer being produced, and 90% of the existing Air-Pak75 SCBAs are reaching their recommended lifespan of ten years. The changes in the NFPA 1981 standard, in addition to the existing Air -Pak75 SCBA being phased out, leaves firefighters with interoperability issues within the department and with local mutual aid agencies. Cathedral City Fire Department and CALFIRE are currently switching over to the Air-Pak X3 Pro SCBA.
The purchase of the Air-Pak X3 Pro SCBAs will bring the department into compliance with the updated standard and will address immediate life safety issues by providing firefighters the capability to share their air supply with each other in emergency situations.
Although the new Air-Pak X3 Pro SCBAs include Mask Mounted Regulators, the SCBAs are assigned to each apparatus. To ensure each firefighter is issued a Mask Mounted Regulator, an additional twenty-four Scott Safety Mask Mounted Regulators are needed.
Additionally, five Scott Safety RIT-Pak III Emergency Air-Supply Systems will need to be purchased, one for each of the five front -line apparatus. The RIT-Paks work in tandem with the AIR-Pak X3 Pro SCBAs. These units are used by Rapid Intervention Teams (RIT) to assist and rescue downed firefighters in IDLH conditions . The units provide an additional air-supply, which is needed during these types of rescues.
Fifty-three Carbon Fiber Cylinders will also need to be purchased, five of which will supplement the five RIT-Paks, and forty-eight cylinders will be used as spares on all fire apparatus, including the Breathing Support V ehicle. Spare cylinders are used to immediately resupply firefighters with air during emergency operations.
The Air-Pak X3 Pro and RIT -Pak III require less maintenance and come with a lifetime comprehensive w arranty which covers defects in workmanship and materials for all standard components of the SCBA (backframe and harness, pneumatics, electronics, facepiece, and cylinder), at no additional cost. Our existing SCBA technicians are trained and certified by Scott Safety so they can continue performing mandatory services and repair work on all new Air-Pak X3 Pro and RIT-Pak III.
Item 1S - 2
City Council Staff Report
January 13, 2022 -- Page 3
Replacement of Fire Department SCBA
The new Air-Pak X3 Pro SCBA bottles operate at a higher pressure than the old SCBA bottles; therefore, in order t o maintain safe refilling operations, the Breathing Support Vehicle’s air compressor unit will need an upgrade to its blast chamber.
The S tat
e of California has procured a contract, with Allstar Fire Equipment, to purchase SCBA equipment (Attachment A - Contract Number 1-17-42-04). Allstar Fire Equipment has provided the same reduced pricing as quoted in the State contract for the Air-Pak X3 Pro and the Carbon Fiber Cylinders.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The req
uested City Council action is not a “Project” as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Pursuant to Section 15378(a), a “Project” means the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. According to Section 15378(b), a Project does not include: (5) organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
