Miracle brings you the thrills of a lifetime.
Miracle is one of the nation’s fi rst and most innovative playground equipment manufacturers. We fi rst began shaping the future of play in 1927 when our founder Johnnie Ahrens created the Whirl — a tilting, kid-powered merry-go-round — based on the timeless insight that, “Kids want action.” That same inspiration has driven more than 90 years of innovation, including the introductions of the fi rst fi berglass slide (1963), the 25-foot Mega Tower® (2000s), and the Avalanche Inclusive Slide (2015). Our latest advance, the Extreme Generation adventure playground, delivers challenging physical events for kids seeking extreme play. Its design brings play to new heights, with innovative, fully-enclosed skyways that provide elaborate rope-course-inspired activities far above ground, safely adding an element of perceived risk to any play space.
This never-ending dedication to innovation is the reason why, even after more than 90 years, the Miracle legacy remains focused on building yours.
VERSALOK
®
Our clamp design
eliminates the need for
stacking multiple clamps
and features a stainless
steel tamper resistant
fastener.
GATOR GRIP
®
The 3D textured pattern
makes it easy for kids to
make their next moves.
MIRA-THERM™
This textured vinyl
coating for deck surfaces
helps prevent rapid
heat transfer, while the
hole pattern keeps little
fi ngers safe.
COMPOUNDED RESIN
Provides superior strength
and durability, advanced
color fastness and UV

The Miracle Advantage
We believe the experience of building a playground should be as intuitive as playing on it. From design, specifi cation, funding, purchasing and installation, we’ll be with you every step of the way. Our customized design process is free because there should never be a charge to dream.
Let’s get you started by envisioning a playground that is meant for your community and right for your budget. It’s why our legacy has always been about building yours.
SAFETY
We’re committed to providing equipment that meets and/or exceeds the performance safety specifi cations established by organizations such as ASTM, CPSC, CSA, CPSIA, IPEMA and EN.

Miracle® uses high quality materials and state of the art manufacturing processes. Commercial playgrounds and products are subjected to years of environmental and solar exposure. Such extreme exposure takes its toll on paints and pigments, and all colors will fade over time. So Miracle® does not warrant against color fading or discoloration. It is important to properly maintain your playground to ensure its longevity. Depending on environmental conditions at your location, the installation of fabric shade structures may help to delay fading and discoloration.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: MARCH 27, 2025 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH NV5 , INC., A CALIFORNIA CORPORATION , FOR ON -CALL ASSESSMENT
ENGINEERING SERVICES
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager
BY: Engineering Services Department
SUMMARY:
Approval of this item will allow the Engineering Services Department to enter into a professional services agreement to provide Assessment Engineering Services to support a variety of utility undergrounding projects under California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Rule 20B & 20C.
RECOMMENDATION:
1) Approve Professional Services Agreement No. _____ with NV5, Inc., a California corporation, to provide “on-call” Assessment Engineering services for an initial one (1) year term, subject to two (2) additional one (1) year extensions approved at the discretion of the City Manager for an amount not to exceed $600,000; and
2) Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute the Agreement and execute all task orders that fall under the Agreement value.
BUSINESS PRINCIPAL DISCLOSURE:
A copy of the Public Integrity Disclosure form for the awarded firm is included as Attachment A.
BACKGROUND:
On November 21, 2024, City Council approved Underground Utilities District Ordinance No. 2104 and adopted policy and procedural guidelines to assist private property owners with financing the cost of undergrounding their utilities through creation of assessment districts using the CPUC Rule 20 Program.
Item 1K - Page 1
City Council Staff Report
March 27, 2025 -- Page 2
On-Call Assessment Engineering Services Agreement
The City of Palm Springs Engineering Services Department requires as-needed “On-Call” Assessment and related Civil Engineering Services to assist with the creation of Utility Undergrounding Assessment Districts (UUDs) to finance resident -initiated utility undergrounding projects and to guide such projects from initial exploration through the completion of construction and connection . The full extent of required professional services is not known at the present time; however, generally the Department anticipates the need for assessment engineering services for various utility undergrounding projects within neighborhoods across the city.
In order to adequately prepare for the variety of projects that the City may undertake in the years to come, it is important that the City has resources available to quickly provide the professional assessment engineering services related to those projects. The City does not currently have an on- call contractor for Assessment Engineering specialty services.
Staff solicited a R equest for Qualifications ( RFQ) under A E RFQ # 2025 for “On -Call” Assessment Engineering Services. By requesting RF Q’s periodically, the City positions itself to work with the most qualified firms and the use of competitive pricing.
The RFQ was written to ensure that the selected firm has demonstrated successful experience and capacity to provide assessment engineering services to a municipal government agency for these types of projects anticipated to be undertaken in the years to come.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
On January 16, 2025 , the RF Q for “On -Call” Assessment Engineering Services was posted through the City’s on-line bid management system PlanetBids TM. By the February
13, 2025, deadline, a total of 2 proposals were received as shown in Table 1 below:
Table 1
No. Firm Location Status
1 NV5 Palm Desert Selected
2 Sikand Engineering Sherman Oaks Not selected
Following a review of the proposals by a s election committee, NV5 was selected. Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Professional Services Agreement with NV5 to provide the requested services for the City. A copy of the Agreement is included as Attachment B.
It is important to note that the agreement is not for a specific dollar amount, as the extent to which services may be needed is not known. The maximum contract amount reflects the on- call nature of the Agreement, in that there is no defined cost other than the Item 1K - Page 2

C. A
ll
insurance coverage and limits provided by Consultant and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to each insured, including additional insureds, against whom a claim is made, or suit is brought to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City, or its operations shall limit the application of such insurance coverage.
D. N
one of
the insurance coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement which substantially impairs the coverages set forth herein (e.g., elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period), unless the endorsement has first been submitted to the City Manager and approved in writing.
E. C
onsul
tant agrees to require its insurer to modify insurance endorsements to delete Item 1K - Page 17
any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the endorsements. Certificates of insurance will not be accepted in lieu of required endorsements, and submittal of certificates without required endorsements may delay commencement of the Project. It is Consultant’s obligation to ensure timely compliance with all insurance submittal requirements as provided herein.
F. Consultant agrees to ensure that subconsultants, and any other parties involved with the Project who are brought onto or involved in the Project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subconsultants and others engaged in the Project will be submitted to the City for review.
G. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non- compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
H. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall b e submitted prior to expiration.
Endorsements as required in this Agreement applicable to the renewing or new coverage shall be provided to City no later than ten (10) days prior to expiration of the lapsing coverage.
I. Requirements of specific insurance coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive.
J. The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this section.
K. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the Work performed under this Agreement and for any other claim or loss which may reduce the insurance available to pay claims arising out of this Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City, or to reduce or dilute insurance available for payment of potential claims.
L. Consultant agrees that the provisions of this section shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which the Consultant may be held responsible for the payment of damages resulting from the Consultant’s activities or the activities of any person or person for which the Consultant is otherwise responsible.
5.4 Sufficiency of Insurers . Insurance required herein shall be provided by authorized Item 1K - Page 18
insurers in good standing with the State of California. Coverage shall be provided by insurers admitted in the State of California with an A.M. Best’s Key Rating of B++, Class VII, or better, unless such requirements are waived in writing by the City Manager or his designee due to unique circumstances.
5.5 V
erification of Coverage. Consultant shall furnish City with both certificates of insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, affecting all of the coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require Consultant’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’ Compensation policies.
V
erification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Palm Springs or (2) an acceptable Certificate of Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the following endorsements stated on the certificate:
A. "The City of Palm Springs, its officials, employees, and agents are named as an additional insured…” ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
B. " This insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or self-insurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement).
C. " Should any of the above described policies be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named." Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable and must be crossed out.
D. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers.
In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Palm Springs shall be named the certificate holder on the policies. All certificates of insurance and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with authority to bind coverage, whether that is the authorized agent/broker or insurance underwriter. Failure to obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Consultant’s obligation to provide them.
6. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall defend (at Consultant’s sole cost and expense), indemnify, protect, and hold harmless City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all liabilities, actions, suits, claims, demands, losses, costs, judgments, arbitration awards, settlements, damages, demands, orders, penalties, and expenses including legal cos ts and attorney fees (collectively “Claims”), including Item 1K - Page 19

This indemnification clause excludes Claims arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties.
Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to limit Consultant’s indemnification obligation or other liability under this Agreement.
Consultant’s indemnification obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties for such matters indemn ified are fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations or, if an action is timely filed, until such action is final.
6.2 If Consultant’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Consultant’s performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8), then, and only to the extent required by Civil Code section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated herein, Consultant’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to the extent which the Claims arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Consultant in the performance of the Services or this Agreement, and, upon Consultant obtaining a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction, Consultant’s liability for such claim, including the cost to defend, shall not exceed the Consultant’s proportionate percentage of fault.

Acceptance of Storm Line Drain 20, Stage 3 – City Project 19-15
Since construction started, there have been six contract change orders approved for the following reasons:
• Contract Change Order No.1 ($12,099.46) – Contractor’s idle equipment during a three-day (3 day) period. At the time of the initial excavation of the storm drain, the Contractor, as required, verified the existing conditions and the invert elevation of the proposed connection point required an elevation change.
• Contract Change Order No. 2 ($ 15,840.80) – Contractor replace d 36 feet of existing active sewer drain that was discovered in poor condition and was not originally included in the scope of work.
• Contract Change Order No. 3 ($50,253.50) – Design changes to select existing street drainage locations not originally included on the plans. This would eliminate ponding observed during construction in areas that would otherwise be an issue.
• Contract Change Order No. 4 ($3,235.13) – Contractor requested design changes to construct an alternate design of drain inlet to avoid conflict with an active Southern California Gas line.
• Contract Change Order No. 5 ($ 10,223.93) – Provided compensation for the Contractor to replace 18 feet of the existing active sewer drain which was discovered in poor condition and was not originally included in the scope of work.
• Contract Change Order No. 6 ($20,000 ) – The Contractor identified additional junction structures that were needed to complete the project. There were bid items listed, but the scope quantity was insufficient. An additional four structures were required.

SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF THE RECREATION FIELDS LED LIGHTING UPGRADES, CITY PROJECT NO. 19-28
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager

On April 10, 2023, the City Council awarded a construction contract in the amount of $4,974,788.05 to Southern Contracting Company to construct the installation of new LED lighting at the recreational baseball fields, City Project 19-28.

Acceptance of Recreation Fields LED Lighting Upgrades – City Project 19-28
STAFF ANALYSIS:
Since construction started, there has been one contract change order approved for the following reason:
• Contract Change Order No.1 ($489,074.71) – City staff requested the Contractor propose and install 4- additional soccer LED light poles at Demuth Park and the replacement of an electrical switchboard in poor condition.
On October 22, 2024, the Project was accepted as substantially completed, with the final component of the project being the installation of an electrical switch gear at Demuth Park. The existing switch gear is still in use; however, it is in poor condition and needs to be replaced. The Switch gear was scheduled to arrive by March 5, 2025; however, Staff and the contractor recently received a letter stating that due to material manufacturing issues, the equipment would not be arriving until August 2025.
Given that that the ballfield lights have been in use since October 2024, and that the final piece of equipment will only take up to four days to install, Staff recommends that City Council accept the Project as required by Section 9200 of the California Civil Code and authorize the City Engineer to file and record a Notice of Completion to be submitted to the County. A copy of the Notice of Completion is included as Attachment A.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT
:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines Section 15301 “Existing Facilities”, Class 1 projects consist of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. Therefore, Staff has determined that the Recreation Fields LED Lighting Upgrades, City Project No. 19-28, is considered categorically exempt from CEQA.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:
This item aligns with City Council Priority 2A – Improve City Facilities – and will assist in implementing the following tasks: Focus on Parks and Community Facilities and Prioritize Deferred Maintenance.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The original contract amount was $4,974,788 with a contingency of $497,478, which was 10% of the construction contract. Staff negotiated a final balancing change order resulting in a credit of $57,527.31. The final balancing change order is included as Attachment B.
The City is holding retention in the amount of $266 ,973.08 for Southern Contracting Company, pending the acceptance of improvements and filing the Notice of Completion Item 1M - Page 2
