OF INTEREST CODE PURSUANT TO THE POLITICAL REFORM ACT
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager
BY: Brenda Pree, City Clerk
SUMMARY:
2026 is a mandatory review year for all local public agencies to review their Conflict of Interest Code, file Biennial Notices with their code-reviewing bodies, and update their Conflict of Interest Code (if necessary). The Political Reform Act dictates that the code reviewing body, the City Council, shall notify the City Manager of this and direct the review of the City’s Code. The City has until October 1 to complete the review and file the Biennial Notice with the Office of the City Clerk reflecting the results of the review. Should the code require an amendment, the City will have 90 days after the filing date to complete the amendment and submit it to the City Council for approval.

RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt a Resolution entitled, "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY

OF PALM SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA, REQUIRING CITY STAFF TO REVIEW THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE AND SUBMIT THE 2026 BIENNIAL NOTICE AS REQUIRED UNDER THE POLITICAL REFORM ACT."
BACKGROUND:

The Political Reform Act requires all local public agencies to review their Conflict of Interest Code no later than July 1 of each even-numbered year, and if a change in its code is necessitated by changed circumstances, submit an amended Conflict of Interest Code. Adopting the proposed resolution is the first step in the review process, which requires staff to submit the requisite notice indicating whether an amendment is necessary to the City Council by the last meeting in September.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 24, 2026 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT NO. 7 TO ASSEMBLY BILL 2766, A MEMORANDUM OF

UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE COACHELLA VALLEY

ASSOCIATION OF GOVERNMENTS AND THE CITY OF PALM SPRINGS TO PROVIDE SUSTAINABLE FUNDING OF THE REGIONAL PM10

STREET SWEEPING PROGRAM
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager
BY: Engineering Services Department
SUMMARY:

This is a request for approval of Amendment No. 7 to the Memorandum of Understanding between the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) and the City of Palm Springs, reflecting an increase in funding participation from 75% to 100%, and allowing for the continuation of funding to the Regional PM10 Street Sweeping Program through AB 2766.

RECOMMENDATION:
1) Approve Amendment No. 7 to the AB 2766 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Coachella Valley Association of Governments (CVAG) and the City of Palm Springs to increase the City’s contribution to 100% in support of sustainable funding for the Regional PM10 Street Sweeping Program through June 30, 2028 and;
2) Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 7 to the AB 2766 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).

BACKGROUND:

In September 1990, the California Legislature adopted AB 2766, which authorizes a surcharge on motor vehicle registration fees to fund programs aimed at reducing air pollution from mobile sources. These funds are collected by the Department of Motor Vehicles and distributed quarterly by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) to local jurisdictions based on population.

G – Page 78 of 1386
City Council Staff Report
June 24, 2026 -- Page 2
Amendment No. 7 to AB2766
The Coachella Valley and the Salton Sea Air Basin are designated non-attainment areas for PM10, defined as particulate matter less than 10 microns. Major PM10 sources include dust from vehicles traveling on paved and unpaved roads, construction activity, and windblown sand deposited along the Coachella Valley’s blowsand corridor parallel to Interstate 10. Since the early 1990s, CVAG and its member agencies have jointly operated the Regional PM10 Street Sweeping Program, one of the region’s most effective PM10 control measures. Cities contribute funding from their AB 2766 allocations, which have ranged from 33% to 100% over the years. This coordinated, valley-wide approach provides significant economies of scale, allowing major streets to be swept frequently and cost-effectively.

On July 1, 2010, the City and CVAG entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to sustain regional PM10 street sweeping efforts. This agreement replaced the previous 2004 MOU. Prompted by depleted regional reserves, the 2010 MOU officially increased the City's AB2766 contribution to CVAG from 45% to 100%. The 2010 MOU including Amendments 1-6 are included as Attachment A. Below is a summary of the amendments:
• On October 10, 2011, City Council approved Amendment No. 1, which modified the funding structure by reducing the City’s contribution requirement to 60%. • On July 9, 2012, Amendment No. 2 was executed, which maintained the 60% contribution and extended the cost-sharing arrangement through June 30, 2014. • On May 22, 2014, Amendment No. 3 was executed, which maintained the 60% contribution and extended the cost-sharing arrangement through June 30, 2016. • On August 3, 2016, the City Council approved Amendment No. 4 to the MOU, which increased the City’s contribution to 75% through June 30, 2020. • On August 6, 2020, the City Council approved Amendment No. 5 to the MOU, which maintained the City’s contribution rate at 75% through June 30, 2024.

In 2022, a study conducted under a South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) grant confirmed that the regional street sweeping program is an effective "best available control measure" for addressing PM10 emissions in the Coachella Valley.

The findings from this study were used to refine the regional contract to make the program more impactful for public health.

On July 25, 2024, the City Council approved Amendment No. 6 to the MOU, which continued the City’s contribution rate at 75% through June 30, 2026.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

The program is currently responsible for bi-weekly sweeping of 1,050 curb miles of regional arterials. This includes 977 miles of regular streets and 73 miles of "special impact" streets. The City of Palm Springs has 806 curb miles of roadways that are swept under the Regional PM 10 program. Of these, Palm Springs has 670 residential miles, 112 arterial miles, and 24 highway miles. Palm Springs also has special impact streets

Amendment No. 7 to AB2766
located on sections of Dinah Shore Drive and North Gene Autry Trail. As part of the 2022 study, additional regional sweeping road segments in the City of Palm Springs were added to the program, which are Sunrise Way and East Mesquite Avenue. Figure 1 below shows the Arterials swept by Regional PM10 program.

Figure 1

G – Page 80 of 1386
City Council Staff Report
June 24, 2026 -- Page 4
Amendment No. 7 to AB2766
The amended program now incorporates the bi-weekly sweeping of the CV Link, accounting for approximately 1,600 linear miles of annual sweeping to maintain the new regional trail system. In addition, service levels were significantly increased recently to combat the surge in blow sand and fugitive dust caused by Tropical Storm Hilary in 2023.

The Regional Street sweeping program is currently funded by three main sources:

1. AB 2766 Vehicle Subvention Funds
• Member agencies contribute 75%
• Amount: ~$450,000

2. SCAQMD Grant
• Amount: $220,000

3. City of Palm Springs Hwy 111 sweeping, (Per a separate MOU) • Amount: $27,000
Recent increases in program costs are attributed to three primary factors:

1. Enhanced service levels for special impact roadways ($130,530).

2. A 5% increase in fuel and waste disposal processing costs ($66,380).

3. The addition of CV Link sweeping services paid by CVAG ($82,400).

CVAG previously received funds from the Coachella Valley Air Quality Enhancement Fund (Colmac), however, funding has lapsed, and the SCAQMD grant expires in June 2027, creating a projected structural deficit beginning in FY 2027-28.

While a one-year grant extension from SCAQMD provides temporary relief through June 2027, the program faces a long-term structural deficit. Without the proposed increase to a 100% AB 2766 contribution, the program is projected to operate at a deficit starting in Fiscal Year 2027-28.

To address this, CVAG is recommending increasing the AB 2766 contribution from 75% to 100% from member jurisdictions starting July 1, 2026. CVAG is actively pursuing continued SCAQMD and Colmac replacement funding from the County of Riverside.

With this seventh amendment, CVAG requests that the jurisdictional contribution level be increased to 100% for the next two years, through June 30, 2028. One hundred percent of all funding goes toward the street sweeping program. Amendment No. 7 to the MOU was approved by the CVAG Executive Committee on December 1, 2025. The Amendment is included as Attachment B and the CVAG Staff report is included as Attachment C.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines the requested City Council action is not a “Project” pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5).

Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment are not considered a “Project”.

STAFF REPORT
Subject: Contract Amendment for the Regional PM10 Street Sweeping Program Contact: Julie Mignogna, Transportation Program Manager ([email protected]) Recommendation: Authorize the Executive Director to:

1. Execute Amendment No. 1 to the services contract with Sweeping Corporation of America for regional street sweeping services, adding an additional $279,311 a year and extending through December 31, 2027;

2. Take the necessary steps to secure additional funding for the program, including funding from South Coast Air Quality Management District and the County of Riverside

3. Execute Amendment No. 7 to the AB 2766 Vehicle Registration Revenue Memorandum of Understanding with each jurisdiction, increasing the funding contribution from 75 to 100 percent and extending the term through June 30, 2028 Transportation Committee: Concurred (Meeting of November 3) Energy & Sustainability Committee: Concurred (Meeting of November13) Background: The Regional PM10 Street Sweeping program is an air quality program focused on addressing PM10 (particulate matter less than 10 microns in size) by removing sand and entrained dust from regional streets in the Coachella Valley. Because the Coachella Valley is in non-attainment for PM10, the program is part of the Coachella Valley’s State Implementation Plan (SIP) and is a best available control measure. The goal of the program is to improve air quality and public health by decreasing fugitive PM10 emissions attributed to entrained roadway dust and sand that can pulverized by vehicles and then suspended into the air.

In 2022, CVAG conducted a study of the regional street sweeping program as part of a South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) grant agreement. The study was conducted to identify additional ways to make the program more impactful for the Coachella Valley. The study found the program to be effective in addressing PM10 emissions, and it provided several recommendations.

These recommendations were included in the regional street sweeping contract that the Executive Committee authorized on December 25, 2022 with CleanStreet, now Sweeping Corporation of America (SCA). The contract was authorized to be three years in duration ending on December 31, 2025, with the option to renew for up to two additional years.

Under the contract, SCA is responsible for sweeping on a bi-weekly basis 1,050 curb miles of regional arterials in the Coachella Valley. Of those, 977 miles are regular streets and 73 miles are special impact streets. Special impact streets, like Dinah Shore Drive, may be swept more often based on need, particularly during the Coachella Valley’s windy season from February through May.

The existing contract also included a provision for sweeping the CV Link once construction is completed, although the budget for that work was not included in the 2022 contract because CV Link

G – Page 97 of 1386
was still under construction. The chart below shows the annual linear curb miles to be swept for each type as part of the proposed amendment.

Item Description Unit
Estimated Annual
Quantity
Regular Street Sweeping Linear Curb Miles 23,878
Special Impact Streets Linear Curb Miles 1,898
Palm Springs Hwy 111 Linear Curb Miles 1,524
CV Link Linear Miles 1,600
CVAG staff have worked with member jurisdictions’ staff and SCA to focus on the program and enhance its performance over the past 15 months. As a result, member agencies are more engaged and have access to sweeping performance data. SCA has responded by increasing the service levels, particularly following Tropical Storm Hilary in 2023 and the ensuing months of increased blowsand and fugitive dust experienced by the Coachella Valley. This focus has increased monthly sweeping costs due to special impact roadways throughout the valley being swept more frequently in response to the additional blowsand and fugitive dust. Approximately $130,530 of the proposed cost increase can be attributed to service level increases.

To continue with this level of service, CVAG staff, based on feedback from the public works staff at the municipal agencies, is recommending Amendment No. 1 to the SCA contract. The amendment will extend the contract term to December 31, 2027 and increase the annual contract amount to continue the more frequent sweeping of special impact streets. The recommended amendment also adds additional budget to account for a five percent increase of fuel and waste disposal process costs and to incorporate the cost of sweeping the CV Link bi-weekly. The five percent increase accounts for approximately $66,380 of the recommended contract increase. The recommended authorization would also authorize the Executive Director and/or Legal Counsel to make clarifying changes prior to execution.

Fiscal Analysis: The proposed SCA contract Amendment No. 1 will add $279,311 a year, increasing the total annual cost of the program from $763,573.96 to $1,042,884.96. The total not to exceed contract amount will increase to $4,655,802.80. There are sufficient accumulated AB 2766 funds available for the additional program costs for Fiscal Year 2025-26. The estimated $82,400 annual cost for the CV Link sweeping services will be funded by regional transportation funds.

In addition to recommending an amendment to the SCA contract, CVAG staff is recommending two authorizations related to the program’s funding. CVAG and municipal staff are also reviewing alternatives to maintain the regional street sweeping program at the current service levels in the future. The primary source of funding for the regional street sweeping program comes from AB 2766 Vehicle Subvention funds the member agencies receive each year. Member agencies direct 75 percent of their AB 2766 funds to the regional street sweeping program, which amounts to approximately $450,000 per year. Additional funding sources for the program include a SCAQMD grant that funds $220,000 per year through June 2026, and $27,000 per year from the City of Palm Springs for sweeping 27 curb miles of Highway 111 in the city.

G – Page 98 of 1386
The street sweeping program had included in prior years funding from the Colmac Air Quality Enhancement Funds through the County of Riverside at $150,000 per year. The Colmac funding agreement ended in June 2025 due to the closing of the Coman Energy biomass plant located in Mecca; however, some funding remains available for the program. CVAG staff is currently coordinating with SCAQMD and the County of Riverside to secure continued SCAQMD and Colmac funding. Should a funding source be secured, staff is requesting authorization for the Executive Director to enter into any necessary agreements with SCAQMD, the County of Riverside or another project partner.

CVAG staff is also recommending that the Executive Director be authorized to enter into amendments to the MOUs with local jurisdictions. CVAG is also coordinating with the cities quarterly as part of the Regional Street Sweeping Program Ad Hoc Committee. Over the years, the AB 2766 funding contribution from the jurisdictions has varied based on the regional street sweeping program’s funding needs. The contribution percentage has ranged from 60 to 100%. Due to the end of Colmac funding and SCAQMD grant term expiring in June 2026, an adjustment to the jurisdiction’s AB2766 contribution is needed. With this authorization, CVAG staff will coordinate with member agency staff to amend the existing AB 2766 MOUs to allocate 100 percent of each jurisdiction’s AB 2766 contribution to the regional street sweeping program. The goal is to ensure the program remains fully funded and that service levels are maintained valleywide through a simplified, collaborative funding structure. Staff recommends that the term of the MOUs also be extended for two additional years, through June 30, 2028, with the increase in AB2766 funding contributions becoming effective on July 1, 2026.

Additional Funding Information Since Policy Committees’ Review In the weeks since this item was presented to the Transportation Committee and the Energy & Sustainability Committee, staff has received positive funding news. SCAQMD is recommending a one-year extension of the existing grant funding for the Regional PM₁₀ Street Sweeping Program, providing an additional $220,000 through June 30, 2027. While this supplemental funding will help mitigate the current program funding shortfall and extend the remaining AB 2766 fund balance through Fiscal Year 2026-27, it will not fully address the program’s long-term structural deficit.

Beginning in Fiscal Year 2027-28, the program is projected to operate at a deficit without additional revenue. Therefore, staff continues to recommend increasing the AB 2766 contribution from 75 percent to 100 percent to maintain service levels and ensure the program’s financial stability.

Should additional funding for the regional street sweeping program be secured, CVAG staff would reassess the need for this increased contribution from local jurisdictions.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 24, 2026 CONSENT CALENDAR
SUBJECT: AWARD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENTS WITH
ENGINEERING RESOURCES OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, INC., AND TKE ENGINEERING, INC., FOR ON-CALL CIVIL PLAN CHECK

SERVICES
FROM: Scott C. Stiles, City Manager
BY: Engineering Services
SUMMARY:

The Engineering Services Department relies on the services of a professional consulting firm to provide on-call civil plan check services for street, sewer, grading, traffic signal and other improvements plans, subdivision maps, right-of-way documents, and technical reports related to proposed and/or approved development projects located in the City.

The current agreement for these services expires June 30, 2026. This action will award professional services agreements with Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc., and TKE Engineering, Inc., for on-call civil plan check services.

RECOMMENDATION:
1) Approve Professional Services Agreement (Attachment A) with Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc., to provide on-call civil plan check services in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000 for a five-year term commencing on July 1, 2026, and continuing through June 30, 2031;
2) Approve Professional Services Agreement (Attachment B) with TKE Engineering, Inc., to provide on-call civil plan check services in an amount not to exceed $2,500,000 for a five-year term commencing on July 1, 2026, and continuing through June 30, 2031;
3) Authorize the City Manager or designee to execute all necessary documents.

BUSINESS PRINCIPAL DISCLOSURE:

According to the Public Integrity Disclosure forms (Attachment C) submitted in April 2026, Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc., and TKE Engineering, Inc., are both registered in the state of California.

I – Page 112 of 1386
City Council Staff Report

On-Call Civil Plan Check Services
BACKGROUND:

Engineering Services requires as-needed, “on-call” civil engineering plan check services for a variety of future private development projects. The full extent of required civil engineering plan check services is not known at the present time; however, Engineering anticipates the need for professional review of street, sewer, grading, traffic signal and other improvement plans, subdivision maps, right-of-way documents, and technical reports related to proposed and/or approved development projects located in the City.

On June 10, 2021, City Council approved Agreement No. 8872 (A8872) with Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc. (ERSC) to provide the City with on-call civil plan check services. The term of A8872 was for an initial three-year term with two one-year extensions, and as the City has exercised both extension terms. The current agreement expires on June 30, 2026.

Historically, the budget for plan check services had been set at $350,000 a year. For Fiscal Years 25/26 and 26/27, staff had anticipated an increase in services and set the budget at $400,000. What staff had not anticipated was the simultaneous advancement of two major projects at a significantly increased pace. The Miralon and Serena Park Developments both submitted an unprecedented number of plans and maps for review in addition to the typical projects the department processes. On January 14, 2026, City Council approved an appropriation of additional funds for on-call civil plan check services for an additional amount not to exceed $400,000, and a revised contract amount not to exceed $800,000 to accommodate the increased reviews and review costs.

Payments made to the consultant for on-call civil engineering plan check services are paid from deposits collected, on a “pass-through” basis; sufficient funds are collected as revenue to offset incurred expenditures on an annual basis for required services. Given that there are expected to be general increases in service costs due to inflation over the term of the contracts, and that major developments like Phase 2 of the Miralon development and several phases of the Serena Park development are still needing review services rendered, Engineering estimates that it is necessary to budget $500,000 a year per consultant. The intent is to minimize the need for appropriating additional funds in future years of the agreements.

STAFF ANALYSIS:

On March 30, 2026, the Procurement and Contracting Department issued Request for Qualifications 02-26 (RFQ 02-26) for on-call civil plan check services based on the specifications provided by Engineering Services. RFQ 02-26 was advertised in the local newspaper, published on the PlanetBids website with notification to 689 registered vendors, and 400 vendors through Bid Broadcast. This outreach resulted in 9 attendees at the Pre-Qualification Conference on April 7, 2026, and the submission of 9 statements of qualifications.

On-Call Civil Plan Check Services
The following firms submitted proposals for consideration by the April 28, 2026, deadline:
• 4LEAF, Inc. – San Bernardino, CA
• Albert A. Webb Associates – Riverside, CA (Non-responsive) • Bureau Veritas – Sacramento, CA
• CSG Consultants, Inc. – Irvine, CA (Non-responsive)
• Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc. – Redlands, CA • Interwest Consulting Group – Irvine, CA
• Michael Baker International – Palm Desert, CA
• TKE Engineering, Inc. – Riverside, CA
• Transtech Engineers, Inc. – Chino, CA
An evaluation committee consisting of City staff from the Engineering Services Department reviewed and scored the statements of qualifications received against the criteria published in the Request for Qualifications. Criteria included the firm’s experience, references, staff’s experience, and demonstrated understanding of the overall project and requested scope of work.

It is the intent of Engineering Services to retain two plan check consultants to maintain consistency with its plan check services, as well as to maintain a back-up consultant should it become necessary.

Engineering Resources of Southern California, Inc. has provided 25 years as the City’s on-call civil plan check service provider for the same services to be covered under this new contract. They have also rendered similar services at varying lengths of time to various jurisdictions & municipalities within Southern California. They have familiarity with unique aspects to the Coachella Valley region regarding civil design, as well as providing the professional expertise necessary to perform the services needed by the City of Palm Springs with a set of dedicated staff.

TKE Engineering, Inc. has over 20 years of dedicated experience in providing plan check services for municipal governments, having performed the same review services for more than 20 municipalities through Southern California during that time. They will have a group of key personnel assigned to handle plan check services for the City of Palm Springs, along with a support team of over 70 members, that are fully qualified to perform the services needed by the City of Palm Springs.

Based on the review of the statements of qualifications and scoring, staff recommend approval of professional services agreements with the highest scoring firms, ERSC and TKE in amounts not to exceed $2,500,000 for five-year terms commencing on July 1, 2026, and continuing through June 30, 2031.

ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:

The requested City Council action is not a “Project” as defined by the California

I – Page 114 of 1386
City Council Staff Report
June 24, 2026 -- Page 4
On-Call Civil Plan Check Services
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. The requested action is to approve contracts for the above-mentioned services, and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15378(b), in that 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.

ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLANNING:

This item aligns with the following City Council Strategic Plan Broad Goal: Infrastructure and Facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Fees for civil engineering plan check services are paid by developers in accordance with the City’s comprehensive fee schedule. These fees currently cover the cost for plan check services and City staff time to administer and coordinate the plan check process.

Payments made to the consultant for on-call civil engineering plan check services are paid from deposits collected, on a “pass-through” basis; sufficient funds are collected as revenue to offset incurred expenditures on an annual basis for required services. As revenue is collected from the private development community for requested plan check services, the revenue is received and offsets expenditures appropriated in the General Fund in the Engineering Department.

(2) If the policy of insurance is written on a “claims made” basis, the policy shall be continued in full force and effect at all times during the term of this Agreement, and for a period of three (3) years from the date of the completion of the Services provided hereunder. In the event of termination of the policy during this period, Consultant shall obtain continuing insurance coverage for the prior acts or omissions of Consultant during the course of performing Services under the terms of this Agreement. The coverage shall be evidenced by either a new policy evidencing no gap in coverage, or by obtaining separate extended “tail” coverage with the present or new carrier or other insurance arrangements providing for complete coverage, either of which shall be subject to the written approval by the City Manager. (3) In the event the policy of insurance is written on an “occurrence” basis, the policy shall be continued in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement, or until completion of the Services provided for in this Agreement, whichever is later.

55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 8 of 25
Consultant has no employees, Consultant shall complete the City’s Request for Waiver of Workers’ Compensation Insurance Requirement form.

5.3 Other Insurance Requirements. The following provisions shall apply to the insurance policies required of Consultant under this Agreement:

A. For any claims related to this Agreement, Consultant’s coverage shall be primary insurance with respect to the City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be in excess of Consultant’s insurance and shall not contribute with it.

B. Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies, including breaches of warranties, shall not affect coverage provided to City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

C. All 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. No required insurance coverages may include any limiting endorsement which substantially impairs the coverages set forth in this Agreement (e.g., elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period), unless the endorsement has first been

I – Page 124 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 9 of 25
submitted to the City Manager and approved in writing.

E. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify insurance endorsements to delete 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 in this Agreement.

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 in this or any other regard.

H. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required in this Agreement, 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 be 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, or 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 impair 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 in this Agreement shall be provided by authorized 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 Verification of Coverage. Consultant shall furnish City with both certificates of

I – Page 125 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 10 of 25
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.

Verification 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 selfinsurance 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 Indemnification and Reimbursement. 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 costs and attorney fees (collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to, Claims arising from injuries to or death of persons (Consultant’s employees included), for damage to property, including property owned by City, for any violation of any federal, state, or local law or ordinance or in any manner arising out of, pertaining to, or incident to any acts, errors or omissions, or willful misconduct committed by Consultant, its officers, employees, representatives, and agents, that arise out of or relate to Consultant’s performance of Services or this Agreement. 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

I – Page 126 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 11 of 25
obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties for such matters indemnified 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 Design Professional Services Indemnification and Reimbursement. 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.

If Consultant is providing design services, Consultant shall promptly notify the Contract Officer the estimated increased or decreased cost for the project being designed if Consultant becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or will materially increase or decrease the cost of the design services.

7.3 Ownership of Documents. All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents, memoranda, correspondence, computations, and other materials prepared by Consultant, its employees, subConsultants, and agents in the performance of this Agreement shall be the property of City and shall be promptly delivered to City upon request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement. Consultant shall have no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of its full rights of ownership of the documents and materials. Any use of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of incomplete documents without specific written authorization by the Consultant will be at the City's sole risk and without liability to Consultant, and the City shall indemnify the Consultant for all resulting damages. Consultant may retain copies of such documents for their own use. Consultant shall have an unrestricted right to use the concepts embodied tin this Agreement.

8. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT

8.1 California Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted both as to validity and as to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such County, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.

8.2 Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole according to its fair language and common meaning to achieve the objectives and purposes of the Parties. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the Parties. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement. The caption headings of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience and identification purposes only and shall not be deemed to limit, expand, or define the contents of the respective sections or paragraphs.

8.3 Default of Consultant. Consultant’s failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a default.

A. If the City Manager, or his designee, determines that Consultant is in default in the performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, he/she shall notify Consultant in writing of such default. Consultant shall have ten (10) days, or such longer period as City may designate, to cure the default by rendering satisfactory performance. In the event Consultant fails to cure its default within such period of time, City shall have the right, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement without further notice and without prejudice of any remedy to which City may be entitled at law, in equity, or under this Agreement. Consultant shall be liable for all reasonable costs incurred by City as a result of such default. Compliance with the provisions of this section shall not constitute a waiver of any City right to take legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing shall limit City’s right to terminate this Agreement without cause under Section 3.2.

B. If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 8.3(A), take over

I – Page 128 of 1386

BB&K (2024) Page 13 of 25
the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise.

The City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated. The withholding or failure to withhold payments to Consultant shall not limit Consultant’s liability for completion of the Services as provided in this Agreement.

8.4 Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. Any waiver by the Parties of any default or breach of any covenant, condition, or term contained in this Agreement, shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent or other default or breach, nor shall failure by the Parties to require exact, full, and complete compliance with any of the covenants, conditions, or terms contained in this Agreement be construed as changing the terms of this Agreement in any manner or preventing the Parties from enforcing the full provisions.

8.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.

8.6 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, remedy or recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

8.7 Attorney Fees. In the event any dispute between the Parties with respect to this Agreement results in litigation or any non-judicial proceeding, the prevailing Party shall be entitled, in addition to such other relief as may be granted, to recover from the non-prevailing Party all reasonable costs and expenses.

A. It is agreed that Consultant shall defend at its expense any claim or suit against City on account of any allegation that any item furnished under this Agreement, or the normal use or sale arising out of the performance of this Agreement, infringes upon any presently existing U.S. letters patent or copyright and Consultant shall pay all costs and damages finally awarded in any such suit or claim, provided that Consultant is promptly notified in writing of the suit or claim and given authority, information and assistance at Consultant’s expense for the defense of same, and provided such suit or claim arises out of, pertains to, or is related to the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Consultant. However, Consultant will not indemnify City if the suit or claim results from: (1) City's alteration of a deliverable, such that City’s alteration of such deliverable created the infringement upon any presently existing U.S. letters patent or copyright; or (2) the use of a deliverable in combination with other material not provided by Consultant when it is such use in combination which infringes upon an existing U.S. letters patent or copyright.

B. Consultant shall have sole control of the defense of any such claim or suit and all negotiations for settlement in the event City fails to cooperate in the defense of any suit or claim, provided, however, that such defense shall be at Consultant’s expense.

EXHIBIT “A”

SCOPE OF SERVICES

1.1. Background:

The City of Palm Springs is requesting statements of qualifications from qualified professional firms to provide the City with on-call civil engineering plan check services, (hereinafter the “Project”). The selected firm(s) will be expected to provide various professional services as necessary to complete review and approval of various plans, maps, and studies for the City.

The City of Palm Springs currently uses contractual civil engineering plan-check services to provide necessary independent review of private development improvement plans, maps, and technical studies/reports for projects within the City.

The City of Palm Springs Engineering Services Department coordinates the review and approval of all improvement plans related to private development (excluding building and related plans), consisting of a variety of grading plans, street improvement plans, storm drain improvement plans, sewer improvement plans, traffic signal improvement plans, onsite improvement (grading and paving) plans, as well as a variety of other types of construction improvement plans and final/parcel maps. In addition to individual plan check review, the City’s civil engineering plan-check consultants provide independent review of technical studies and reports (including sewer studies, traffic studies, geotechnical reports, stormwater pollution prevention/NPDES plans, and water quality management plans), and render appropriate review of the analysis and proposed mitigation. Services will also include review and verification of Right-of-Way documents including, but not limited to, legal descriptions for easements, dedications, lot line adjustments, certificates of compliance, and parcel mergers.

1.2. Scope:

A. The Scope of Work shall consist of providing civil engineering plan-check services of various development items, consisting of improvement plans (including, but not limited to:
rough grading, street, sewer, storm drain, on-site grading/paving, traffic signal, traffic striping/signage); subdivision maps (final tract maps and parcel maps); and professional studies (including, but not limited to: hydrology/hydraulic, sewer, traffic, geotechnical, storm water pollution prevention/NPDES and water quality management plans). Services will also include review and verification of Right-of-Way documents including, but not limited to legal descriptions for easements, dedications, lot line adjustments, certificates of compliance, and parcel mergers.

B. The Consultant shall act as the City Surveyor and Traffic Engineer through the development process. In addition, the City shall require the Consultant be the City Surveyor or Traffic Engineer outside the development process. The Consultant shall advise the City on Traffic Engineering and Survey/Mapping issues or questions.

C. The City is entering into Agreements with two on-call civil plan check consulting firms, Engineering Resoucrse of Southern California, Inc., and TKE Engineering, Inc, therefore, if one consulting firm has prepared and submitted for approval to the City, including but

I – Page 134 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 19 of 25
not limited to, improvement plans, associated technical studies, and final or parcel maps for development projects located within the City of Palm Springs during the term of this Agreement, the other consulting firm shall be required to review those items prepared. a. For example if Engineering Resourses prepared a parcel map and submitted to the City of Palm Springs for review and approval TKE Engineering, Inc., would be the only authorized on-call civil plan check consultant to provide such services.

D. Consultant shall be required to adhere to the City’s existing civil engineering plan check service process which is currently a 100% electronic plan submittal and plan review process. Consultant shall be responsible for implementing the 100% electronic plan submittal and plan review process with the City. Consultant shall be required to coordinate with the City’s IT Department in becoming integrated into the City’s software systems as available. The City currently has implemented a global Enterprise Resource Planner (ERP) system called Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) with Tyler Technologies, Inc.

EPL utilizes BlueBeam as the built-in plan check software. Consultant shall integrate and interface with the City’s system accordingly for plan check services rendered using the system. Consultant shall also be required for furnishing and providing its own electronic system for City use on its IT system, subject to review and approval by the City’s IT Director.

E. In conformance with the approved Performance Schedule, civil engineering plan-check consultants shall provide a thorough and complete initial plan-check using the highest professional standards. An initial plan-check shall be provided in conformance with City of Palm Springs standards, civil engineering design guidelines appropriate for the type of work (Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction “Greenbook”, State of California Standards “Caltrans” Specifications, Caltrans Highway Design Manual, and various other design guidelines), as well as all relevant ordinances, resolutions, statutes, rules, and regulations of the City, and all other local, state or federal governmental agency having jurisdiction over the type and location of the development activity.

F. The Engineering Services Department shall not accept a development item for initial plancheck until a complete plan-check package is provided by the developer. Consultant shall be expected to review development items (plans, maps, or professional studies) in conformance with and in relation to the following related items:
a. Adopted “Conditions of Approval”, and applicable plan check items, by City Council Resolution (relative to Planned Development Districts, Tentative Tract/Parcel Maps, Architectural Approvals, Conditional Use Permits, etc.) b. Approved Site Plans or Tentative Maps
c. Planning Department comments, as relevant
d. Title Report, Current Tax Bill or other property ownership verification e. Professional Studies (geotechnical, hydrology, sewer, traffic, etc.) f. Verification of issuance of a General Construction Activity Storm Water Permit, if required
g. Grants or Vacations of Right-of-Way, as relevant
h. Traverse, Lot and Tract Boundary Closures for final or parcel maps i. Reference maps, Assessor Maps, and other information related to final or parcel maps

I – Page 135 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 20 of 25
G. In reviewing improvement plans; Consultant shall ensure that all “Conditions of Approval” are met, such as: required frontage improvements (sidewalk/bikeway widths, color and treatment); required street pavement section and street design; minimum/maximum percentage slopes; and parking lot layout and design (in conformance with the Zoning Code), as an example. Consultant shall follow the Engineering Services Department’s latest improvement plan check sheets to ensure that minimum standards are met; and shall ensure that the latest general notes are included on the first sheet of each plan set.

Consultant shall be expected to physically visit each development location and to ensure that improvement plans subject to plan-check review “fit” within the real world. A site visit for each location is to be considered expected unless otherwise waived by the City Engineer.

H. In reviewing final or parcel maps; Consultant shall ensure that all “Conditions of Approval” are met, such as required public and private right-of-way or easement dedications, rightof-way vacations, land transfers, conservation or public space easements, and drainage/public utility easement dedications, as an example. Consultant shall ensure that all final or parcel maps are technically correct and meet current local and state regulations.

It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to review the title report for subdivision guarantee and determine that the final or parcel map boundary is consistent with the description given in the title report; as well as ensure that the appropriate signatories and executors of the final or parcel map are consistent with the current vesting ownership indicated in the title report.

I. Upon completion of the first (initial) plan-check, Consultant shall provide a complete and thorough itemized written list of plan-check comments for use by the developer’s consultant in revising the initial plans, map or professional study. The Engineering Services Department shall expect the first plan-check comments to be of such detail and completeness so new plan-check comments on subsequent plan-check submittals are avoided, if at all possible, except when as a result of changes or modifications to the initial plans. Consultant shall maintain its own plan-check files with copies of initial and subsequent drafts of plans or maps, plan-check comments from the initial and subsequent reviews, and relevant documentation and data. Consultant shall scan all red-lined plans returned to the developer’s consultant for correction as part of its plan-check file, and shall make the scanned plans available to the City upon request.

J. Throughout the plan-check process, Consultant shall be expected to be available to meet, as necessary, with the Engineering Services Department and/or the developer’s consultant to discuss plan-check review comments. Fees for time required to meet with City staff or the developer’s consultant shall be included in the plan-check service fee charged by Consultant, and shall not be separately paid for outside of the plan-check process.

K. All plan-check services shall be performed by or under the responsible charge of a California licensed professional eligible to prepare and sign the type of map, plan, or professional study being reviewed. Consultant shall sign and stamp original, signed mylar plans when ready for approval by the City Engineer; and shall submit an approval letter to the City Engineer stating that the subject development item (improvement plan, map or professional study) has been reviewed and approved by Consultant.

L. Consultant shall agree to all requests for expedited or “fast track” plan-checking, in conformance with the approved “fast track” Performance Schedule.

M. Consultant shall NOT subcontract or assign work to other consultants or firms unless identified in the original proposal and approved by the City in award of the professional

I – Page 136 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 21 of 25
services agreement to Consultant. Subsequent substitution of subconsultants shall not be allowed unless otherwise specifically authorized by the City Engineer.

1.3. Schedule:

A. Timely review of improvement plans, associated technical studies, and final or parcel maps is vital to the successful development of the City of Palm Springs. In order to promote a “business friendly” environment, the City of Palm Springs expects Consultant to be aware and sensitive of the cost to the development community of delays attributed to plan-check review, and to adhere to Performance Schedules, provide complete and thorough initial plan-check review, and be available as necessary to address issues regarding plan-check items. Consultant shall consider its plan-check “contracts” as important as its own in-house projects.

B. Currently, for civil engineering plan-check services of plans or maps, the City of Palm Springs requires the following schedule of performance:
a. Performance Schedule (Normal):
i. Initial draft (first submittal) shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within two (2) working days of notification. ii. First submittal shall be reviewed, checked for accuracy, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within two (2) working days plus one (1) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department.
iii. Second and subsequent drafts shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within two (2) working days of notification. iv. Second and subsequent drafts shall be reviewed, checked for correction of plan-check comments and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within two (2) working days plus one (1) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department. v. Working days are Monday through Friday, not counting City Holidays: CITY “OBSERVED” DATES*, to be updated annually.
vi. Note: Although the City has implemented a four day work week where City Hall is closed on Fridays, Consultant shall be required to consider Friday as a working day in compliance with performance of their plan check services.
vii. Example of a 3-sheet plan-check Performance Schedule:

1. Notified on Day 1 (i.e. Monday)

2. Pick-up by Day 3 (i.e. Wednesday)

3. Return by Day 8 (i.e. following Wednesday)
b. Fast Track: Performance Schedule: At times, the development community requests an expedited “fast track” plan-check review process. Currently, for Fast Track plan-checking, Performance Schedule is accelerated by 50% of the normal Performance Schedule, as follows:
i. Initial draft (first submittal) shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within one (1) working day of notification.

I – Page 137 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 22 of 25
ii. First submittal shall be reviewed, checked for accuracy, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within one (1) working day plus half (½) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department.
iii. Second and subsequent drafts shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within one (1) working day of notification. iv. Second and subsequent drafts shall be reviewed, checked for correction of plan-check comments, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within one (1) working day plus half (½) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department. v. Example of a 3-sheet plan-check performance:

1. Notified on Day 1 (i.e. Monday)

2. Pick-up by Day 2 (i.e. Tuesday)

3. Return by mid-Day 4 (i.e. noon Friday)
c. For professional studies, an appropriate amount of review time depending upon the scope and extent of the study, not to exceed 5 working days, is allowed. The review time for a specific professional study upon first (initial) submittal shall be mutually agreed upon by the Engineering Services Department and the civil engineering plan-check consultant assigned to perform the review.

Work will commence on July 1, 2026, and all work shall be completed by June 30, 2031.

1.4. Compensation:

The City provides a not-to-exceed payment to Consultant following review and approval up to the third submittal (draft) of an item for plan-checking (improvement plan, map, or professional report). City requires Consultant to perform a thorough and complete plancheck of the initial (first) submittal, and the developer’s consultant to address the planchecker’s initial comments such that final plans are ready for approval and the City Engineer’s signature upon completion of the third submittal.

In the event this requirement is not achieved, the Engineering Services Department shall review outstanding plan-check comments and determine if additional plan-check service fees shall be assessed to the developer. In those cases where it is determined that plancheck comments have not been addressed to the City’s satisfaction, an additional plancheck service fee of 50% the normal fee shall be assessed for subsequent reviews of items for plan-check following the third submittal.

However, the Engineering Services Department shall not approve additional plan-check service fees in the event it has been demonstrated that new plan check comments were identified on second and subsequent reviews which should have been identified on the first submittal.

Rates for each type of review are to be established based upon the projected cost of time & material spent by a reviewer qualified to perform each of the associated review types listed in the scope of work. Compensation for time shall be based upon wages for each position expected to be involved in a review type and should be equivalent to the prevailing wage for each position. Compensation for the additional work, as requested by the City for City Surveyor & Traffic Engineer services, will be compensated at an established hourly rate equivalent to the prevailing wage associated with those positions.

I – Page 138 of 1386
55575.18100\42907009.1
BB&K (2024) Page 23 of 25
An expedited “Fast Track” fee is to be established for each review type as a fixed percentage increase to the base review fees already to be charged.

In the event a plan check item is not resubmitted for review after 3 months following a previous plan-check, the item is considered “dead”, and the Engineering Services Department allows its Consultant to request a 50% payment of the not-to-exceed amount.

In the event a plan check item has gone two or more plan-check cycles and the project is withdrawn, the Engineering Services Department allows its Consultant to request the remaining 50% payment of the not-to-exceed amount, or in the event a previous partial payment was not made, to request the entire not-to-exceed payment.

Contract pricing includes all labor, expenses, and incidentals to complete the work outlined in the contract scope. The Consultant may request monthly payments based on the percentage of work completed for the previous month as long as a detailed progress report is provided to support the amount requested. No additional compensation will be due by the City unless the contract is modified for additional work requested by the City.

SECTION 4 – SCOPE OF WORK

4.1. Background:

The City of Palm Springs is requesting statements of qualifications from qualified professional firms to provide the City with on-call civil engineering plan check services, (hereinafter the “Project”). The selected firm(s) will be expected to provide various professional services as necessary to complete review and approval of various plans, maps, and studies for the City.

The City of Palm Springs currently uses contractual civil engineering plan-check services to provide necessary independent review of private development improvement plans, maps, and technical studies/reports for projects within the City.

The City of Palm Springs Engineering Services Department coordinates the review and approval of all improvement plans related to private development (excluding building and related plans), consisting of a variety of grading plans, street improvement plans, storm drain improvement plans, sewer improvement plans, traffic signal improvement plans, onsite improvement (grading and paving) plans, as well as a variety of other types of construction improvement plans and final/parcel maps. In addition to individual plan check review, the City’s civil engineering plan-check consultants provide independent review of technical studies and reports (including sewer studies, traffic studies, geotechnical reports, stormwater pollution prevention/NPDES plans, and water quality management plans), and render appropriate review of the analysis and proposed mitigation. Services will also include review and verification of Right-of-Way documents including, but not limited to, legal descriptions for easements, dedications, lot line adjustments, certificates of compliance, and parcel mergers.

4.2. Scope:

A. The Scope of Work shall consist of providing civil engineering plan-check services of various development items, consisting of improvement plans (including, but not limited to:
rough grading, street, sewer, storm drain, on-site grading/paving, traffic signal, traffic striping/signage); subdivision maps (final tract maps and parcel maps); and professional studies (including, but not limited to: hydrology/hydraulic, sewer, traffic, geotechnical, storm water pollution prevention/NPDES and water quality management plans). Services will also include review and verification of Right-of-Way documents including, but not limited to legal descriptions for easements, dedications, lot line adjustments, certificates of compliance, and parcel mergers.

C. Consultant shall not prepare improvement plans, associated technical studies, and final or parcel maps for development projects located within the City of Palm Springs during the term of their agreement, except in the case that two firms are selected for plan check services. It is the intention of the City to retain up to two plan check consultants to maintain consistency with its plan check services, therefore, if two firms are selected then a backup plan check consultant may be available to review items prepared by the other selected consultant for these services.

D. Consultant shall be required to adhere to the City’s existing civil engineering plan check service process which is currently a 100% electronic plan submittal and plan review process. Consultant shall be responsible for implementing the 100% electronic plan

I – Page 150 of 1386

Page 10 of 19 ends

submittal and plan review process with the City. Consultant shall be required to coordinate with the City’s IT Department in becoming integrated into the City’s software systems as available. The City currently has implemented a global Enterprise Resource Planner (ERP) system called Enterprise Permitting & Licensing (EPL) with Tyler Technologies, Inc.

EPL utilizes BlueBeam as the built-in plan check software. Consultant shall integrate and interface with the City’s system accordingly for plan check services rendered using the system. Consultant shall also be required for furnishing and providing its own electronic system for City use on its IT system, subject to review and approval by the City’s IT Director.

E. In conformance with the approved Performance Schedule, civil engineering plan-check consultants shall provide a thorough and complete initial plan-check using the highest professional standards. An initial plan-check shall be provided in conformance with City of Palm Springs standards, civil engineering design guidelines appropriate for the type of work (Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction “Greenbook”, State of California Standards “Caltrans” Specifications, Caltrans Highway Design Manual, and various other design guidelines), as well as all relevant ordinances, resolutions, statutes, rules, and regulations of the City, and all other local, state or federal governmental agency having jurisdiction over the type and location of the development activity.

F. The Engineering Services Department shall not accept a development item for initial plancheck until a complete plan-check package is provided by the developer. Consultant shall be expected to review development items (plans, maps, or professional studies) in conformance with and in relation to the following related items:
a. Adopted “Conditions of Approval”, and applicable plan check items, by City Council Resolution (relative to Planned Development Districts, Tentative Tract/Parcel Maps, Architectural Approvals, Conditional Use Permits, etc.) b. Approved Site Plans or Tentative Maps
c. Planning Department comments, as relevant
d. Title Report, Current Tax Bill or other property ownership verification e. Professional Studies (geotechnical, hydrology, sewer, traffic, etc.) f. Verification of issuance of a General Construction Activity Storm Water Permit, if required
g. Grants or Vacations of Right-of-Way, as relevant
h. Traverse, Lot and Tract Boundary Closures for final or parcel maps i. Reference maps, Assessor Maps, and other information related to final or parcel maps
G. In reviewing improvement plans; Consultant shall ensure that all “Conditions of Approval” are met, such as: required frontage improvements (sidewalk/bikeway widths, color and treatment); required street pavement section and street design; minimum/maximum percentage slopes; and parking lot layout and design (in conformance with the Zoning Code), as an example. Consultant shall follow the Engineering Services Department’s latest improvement plan check sheets to ensure that minimum standards are met; and shall ensure that the latest general notes are included on the first sheet of each plan set.

Consultant shall be expected to physically visit each development location and to ensure that improvement plans subject to plan-check review “fit” within the real world. A site visit for each location is to be considered expected unless otherwise waived by the City Engineer.

I – Page 151 of 1386

Page 11 of 19 ends

H. In reviewing final or parcel maps; Consultant shall ensure that all “Conditions of Approval” are met, such as required public and private right-of-way or easement dedications, rightof-way vacations, land transfers, conservation or public space easements, and drainage/public utility easement dedications, as an example. Consultant shall ensure that all final or parcel maps are technically correct and meet current local and state regulations.

It shall be Consultant’s responsibility to review the title report for subdivision guarantee and determine that the final or parcel map boundary is consistent with the description given in the title report; as well as ensure that the appropriate signatories and executors of the final or parcel map are consistent with the current vesting ownership indicated in the title report.

I. Upon completion of the first (initial) plan-check, Consultant shall provide a complete and thorough itemized written list of plan-check comments for use by the developer’s consultant in revising the initial plans, map or professional study. The Engineering Services Department shall expect the first plan-check comments to be of such detail and completeness so new plan-check comments on subsequent plan-check submittals are avoided, if at all possible, except when as a result of changes or modifications to the initial plans. Consultant shall maintain its own plan-check files with copies of initial and subsequent drafts of plans or maps, plan-check comments from the initial and subsequent reviews, and relevant documentation and data. Consultant shall scan all red-lined plans returned to the developer’s consultant for correction as part of its plan-check file, and shall make the scanned plans available to the City upon request.

J. Throughout the plan-check process, Consultant shall be expected to be available to meet, as necessary, with the Engineering Services Department and/or the developer’s consultant to discuss plan-check review comments. Fees for time required to meet with City staff or the developer’s consultant shall be included in the plan-check service fee charged by Consultant, and shall not be separately paid for outside of the plan-check process.

K. All plan-check services shall be performed by or under the responsible charge of a California licensed professional eligible to prepare and sign the type of map, plan, or professional study being reviewed. Consultant shall sign and stamp original, signed mylar plans when ready for approval by the City Engineer; and shall submit an approval letter to the City Engineer stating that the subject development item (improvement plan, map or professional study) has been reviewed and approved by Consultant.

L. Consultant shall agree to all requests for expedited or “fast track” plan-checking, in conformance with the approved “fast track” Performance Schedule.

M. Consultant shall NOT subcontract or assign work to other consultants or firms unless identified in the original proposal and approved by the City in award of the professional services agreement to Consultant. Subsequent substitution of subconsultants shall not be allowed unless otherwise specifically authorized by the City Engineer.

4.3. Schedule:

A. Timely review of improvement plans, associated technical studies, and final or parcel maps is vital to the successful development of the City of Palm Springs. In order to promote a “business friendly” environment, the City of Palm Springs expects Consultant to be aware and sensitive of the cost to the development community of delays attributed to plan-check review, and to adhere to Performance Schedules, provide complete and thorough initial plan-check review, and be available as necessary to address issues regarding plan-check items. Consultant shall consider its plan-check “contracts” as important as its own in-house projects.

I – Page 152 of 1386

Page 12 of 19 ends

B. Currently, for civil engineering plan-check services of plans or maps, the City of Palm Springs requires the following schedule of performance:
a. Performance Schedule (Normal):
i. Initial draft (first submittal) shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within two (2) working days of notification. ii. First submittal shall be reviewed, checked for accuracy, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within two (2) working days plus one (1) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department.
iii. Second and subsequent drafts shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within two (2) working days of notification. iv. Second and subsequent drafts shall be reviewed, checked for correction of plan-check comments and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within two (2) working days plus one (1) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department. v. Working days are Monday through Friday, not counting City Holidays: CITY “OBSERVED” DATES*, to be updated annually.
vi. Note: Although the City has implemented a four day work week where City Hall is closed on Fridays, Consultant shall be required to consider Friday as a working day in compliance with performance of their plan check services.
vii. Example of a 3-sheet plan-check Performance Schedule:

1. Notified on Day 1 (i.e. Monday)

2. Pick-up by Day 3 (i.e. Wednesday)

3. Return by Day 8 (i.e. following Wednesday)
b. Fast Track: Performance Schedule: At times, the development community requests an expedited “fast track” plan-check review process. Currently, for Fast Track plan-checking, Performance Schedule is accelerated by 50% of the normal Performance Schedule, as follows:
i. Initial draft (first submittal) shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within one (1) working day of notification.
ii. First submittal shall be reviewed, checked for accuracy, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within one (1) working day plus half (½) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department.
iii. Second and subsequent drafts shall be transmitted by the Engineering Services Department within one (1) working day of notification. iv. Second and subsequent drafts shall be reviewed, checked for correction of plan-check comments, and returned to the Engineer of Record with a copy to the City within one (1) working day plus half (½) working day per sheet following transmission from the Engineering Services Department. v. Example of a 3-sheet plan-check performance:

1. Notified on Day 1 (i.e. Monday)

I – Page 153 of 1386

Page 13 of 19 ends

2. Pick-up by Day 2 (i.e. Tuesday)

3. Return by mid-Day 4 (i.e. noon Friday)
c. For professional studies, an appropriate amount of review time depending upon the scope and extent of the study, not to exceed 5 working days, is allowed. The review time for a specific professional study upon first (initial) submittal shall be mutually agreed upon by the Engineering Services Department and the civil engineering plan-check consultant assigned to perform the review.

Work will commence on July 1, 2026, and all work shall be completed by June 30, 2031.

4.4. Compensation:

The City provides a lump sum payment to Consultant following review and approval up to the third submittal (draft) of an item for plan-checking (improvement plan, map, or professional report). City requires Consultant to perform a thorough and complete plancheck of the initial (first) submittal, and the developer’s consultant to address the planchecker’s initial comments such that final plans are ready for approval and the City Engineer’s signature upon completion of the third submittal.

In the event this requirement is not achieved, the Engineering Services Department shall review outstanding plan-check comments and determine if additional plan-check service fees shall be assessed to the developer. In those cases where it is determined that plancheck comments have not been addressed to the City’s satisfaction, an additional plancheck service fee of 50% the normal fee shall be assessed for subsequent reviews of items for plan-check following the third submittal.

However, the Engineering Services Department shall not approve additional plan-check service fees in the event it has been demonstrated that new plan check comments were identified on second and subsequent reviews which should have been identified on the first submittal.

Rates for each type of review are to be established based upon the projected cost of time & material spent by a reviewer qualified to perform each of the associated review types listed in the scope of work. Compensation for time shall be based upon wages for each position expected to be involved in a review type and should be equivalent to the prevailing wage for each position. Compensation for the additional work, as requested by the City for City Surveyor & Traffic Engineer services, will be compensated at an established hourly rate equivalent to the prevailing wage associated with those positions.

An expedited “Fast Track” fee is to be established for each review type as a fixed percentage increase to the base review fees already to be charged.

In the event a plan check item is not resubmitted for review after 3 months following a previous plan-check, the item is considered “dead”, and the Engineering Services Department allows its Consultant to request a 50% lump sum payment. In the event a plan check item has gone two or more plan-check cycles and the project is withdrawn, the Engineering Services Department allows its Consultant to request the remaining 50% lump sum payment, or in the event a previous partial payment was not made, to request the entire lump sum payment.

Contract pricing includes all labor, expenses, and incidentals to complete the work outlined in the contract scope. The Consultant may request monthly payments based on the percentage of work completed for the previous month as long as a detailed progress report is provided to support the amount requested. No additional compensation will be due by the City unless the contract is modified for additional work requested by the City.

SECTION 6 – STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS EVALUATION

6.1. Evaluation of Statements of Qualifications:

This solicitation has been developed in the RFQ most qualified firm format. Accordingly, firms should take note that multiple factors as identified in the RFQ will be considered by the Evaluation Committee to determine which statement of qualifications best meets the requirements set forth in the RFQ document.

An Evaluation Committee, using the following evaluation criteria for this RFQ, will evaluate all responsive statements of qualifications to this RFQ. Firms are requested to submit their statements of qualifications so that they correspond to and are identified with the following specific evaluation criteria (100 total points possible):

Criteria Points
Firm’s (including any subcontractors) Qualifications and experience in providing similar services as defined in the RFQ, including References
30 Staff / Team’s (including any subcontractors) Qualifications and experience in providing similar services as defined in the RFQ 30 Demonstrated Understanding of the overall project and requested Scope of Work
35 Local Preference * 5
*Note: Firms that qualify as a Local Business, and submit a valid business license as more fully set forth in this RFQ, pursuant to the City of Palm Springs Local Preference Ordinance 1756). The full local preference, five points, may be awarded to those that qualify as a Local Business.

Prior City work - If your firm has prior experience working with the City do not assume this prior work is known to all members of the evaluation committee. All firms are evaluated on the information contained in their statement of qualifications, information obtained from references (including the city and past performance if applicable), and presentations if requested. All statements of qualifications should be prepared as if the evaluation committee members have no knowledge of the firm, their qualifications, or past projects.

Interviews – The City reserves the right to interview top ranking proposers. If interviews are required, the proposers invited to interview will be notified in advance and provided a format and time for the interviews. An additional 25 points will be used to score the interview based on the same criteria listed in the RFP. The 25 points will be prorated in the same proportion as the proposal scoring listed in the table above.

6.2. Selection Process and Award of Contract:

Selection will be made by totaling the points for the statements of qualifications and interviews if required. The Responder(s) with the highest number of points will be asked to submit a cost proposal for negotiation of a fair and reasonable price and if successful will be recommended for award of the contract. If the negotiations are not successful, the process may continue with the next highest ranked Responder. The City reserves the right to negotiate the terms and conditions of any resulting contract. Final contract award, if any, will be made by the Palm Springs City Council or City Manager depending on value.
