City Council Staff Report
DATE: APRIL 19, 2023
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT
DISTRICT: 3
SUBJECT: APPROVE AGREEMENT NO. A-8314 WITH SMARTE CARTE, INC.

TO INSTALL LEASED KEYLESS LOCKERS AND SELF-SERVICE
PAYMENT KIOSKS AT DRYTOWN WATER PARK.

ISSUE
Approve agreement No. A-8314 with Smarte Carte, Inc. to install leased keyless lockers and self-service payment kiosks at DryTown Water Park.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Award Agreement No . A-8314 with Smarte Carte, Inc. to install leased keyless lockers and self-service payment kiosks at DryTown Water Park.

2. Authorize the City Manager, or her designee , to execute Agreement No. A -8314 with Smarte Carte, Inc. including minimal and/or non-substantive changes.

BACKGROUND
DryTown Water Park personnel currently manage lockers that are available for customers to rent. Renting lockers is a common theme park convenience, as renting a locker is not necessary to utilize and enjoy the park. Approximately 7% of park guests choose to rent a locker. Operating season 2022, the highest number of lockers rented in a day was 158, on that day we had 1,993 guests in the park.

Lockers were installed when the park opened in 2006 and are original to the park; lockers are well beyond their expected lifespan . In anticipation of replacement , staff have researched replacement options. Through our research, it has been determined that the existing locker handles are not ADA compliant. Approximately 15% of our inventory can no longer be repaired , are difficult to operate and their appearance is weathered. Much of our inventory is routinely out of service during the season , as we work to resolve lost keys and locker malfunctions.

Replace with Similar City Owned Keyed System
The current locker system requires a physical key to open and City staff to manage.

Associated challenges include lost keys, keys taken home by mistake, keys found in the filtration system, or floating in attractions. These challenges lead to the inability to re-rent lockers, staff assistance to retrieve belongings, and eventual replacement of locking mechanism or rekey of the mechanism. Replacing with a similar keyed locker system does not eliminate the current operational challenges associated with keys and would still require City personnel to continue to manage and maintain the system, resulting in lost productivity.

Upfront costs include: Purchasing 172 lockers: $80,000; Labor to remove and install the new lockers are unknown; Annual financials associated with this arrangement include personnel costs to manage and maintain the system: $12,700; Processing fees: $2,000.

Net revenue based upon current sales trends (7% of total guests) at the current rental rate ($6) is $18,900 annually. Approximately 4.2 seasons would be required to recover upfront cost, plus additional seasons for unknown cost to remove and install.

Replace with City Owned Electronic System
An electronic locker system is more convenient for guests, as self-service kiosks issue a code to unlock. Additional benefits include an easy re-rental process throughout the day and do not require City personnel to manage. These benefits result in gained staff productivity, a potential increase in rentals, and improved guest experience.

Upfront costs include: purchasing 172 lockers, and four (4) kiosks, $150,000, labor to remove and install new lockers are unknown. Annual financials associated with this arrangement include: service, maintenance and licensing, $15,000 after year one; processing fees, $2,000.

Net revenue based upon current sales trends (7% of total guests) at the proposed rental rate range ($8 - $15) is $47,400 annually. Approximately 3.2 seasons would be required to recover the cost of lockers, plus additional seasons for unknown cost to remove existing, install and eventually replace the units.

Replace with Leased Electronic System
A leased electronic locker system provides the same benefits as stated above.

Additionally, the lessor is responsible for repairs, service and ultimately replacing units.

Upfront cost is zero. The annual financials associated with this arrangement include:
maintenance and licensing, $0; processing fees, $0.

Net revenue based upon current sales trends (7% of total guests) at proposed rental rate range ($8 - $15), less 35% vendors share is $41,860 annually. Leasing lockers is Report to Mayor and City Council
Re: Award agreement No. A-8314

approximately 10% less in annual revenue than owning electronic lockers, however, zero upfront and replacement cost.

DISCUSSION
Based upon associated costs and revenues, it is recommended that leasing lockers is the most cost-effective approach for the City. To secure a leased electronic locker system, an RFP was prepared and released on Planet Bids on March 7, 2023. The RFP was sent to a total of 35 vendors, and as a result, the City received two proposals.

Scoring was based on the following criteria: past performance, qualifications, and experience, ability to perform the work and meet timelines, references, cost to the City, and revenue share percentage. The proposal submitted by Smarte Carte, Inc. scored more points and offered 65% revenue share, compared to 35% from Best Lockers. Their proposal includes the following services at no cost to the City: installation of 172 keyless entry lockers and four (4) self-service payment kiosks, easy to use pin code locker access, PCI compliance, revenue and usage reports, maintenance, repair and replacement parts, and timely customer support. Smarte Carte, Inc. also has a technician living in Palmdale who can quickly respond to service requests.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no expenditure impact associated with this item. Estimated annual net revenue to the City: $41,860.

STRATEGIC PLAN
Goal II: Ensure long-term fiscal health of the City and maintain funding services.

A. Manage resources, costs, and liabilities to ensure the City’s long-term fiscal health, or
B. Pursue alternative financing opportunities for continued infrastructure improvements and quality community programs.

Goal III: Invest in infrastructure to improve community livability.

C. Seek innovative, cost effective, customer focused methods of service delivery.

BACKGROUND
The City released Invitation for Bid No. 21 -004-3300 on March 29, 2021, and awarded to Walsma Oil Company, Inc. at the June 1, 2021 City Council meeting. In Fiscal Year 2023, Purchase Order 2023000 was issued and approved by the City Counci l in the amount of $450,000.

DISCUSSION
Maintaining an on -site fueling station and bulk fuel deliveries are important for accessibility, product security, and best price economics. It is also advantageous in the event of emergency or disaster situations.

JET/VACUUM TRUCK IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $604,992
ISSUE
Approve Purchase Order No. 20230495 with Plumber’s Depot for one (1) new GapVax MC1510-3S4S Combination Jet/Vacuum Truck in an amount not to exceed $604,992.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Approve Purchase Order No. 20230495 with Plumber’s Depot for one (1) new GapVax MC1510 -3S4S Combination Jet/Vacuum Truck , in an amount not to exceed $604,992.

2. Authorize the City Manager or her designee to authorize Purchase Order No. 20230495 with Plumber’s Depot, including non-substantive changes.

BACKGROUND
City Council approved the FY 2023 Mid-Year Budget Adjustments at the March 1, 2023, meeting. This inclu ded a budget adjustment for a second GapVax combination jet/vacuum truck for the Maintenance Division.

This new GapVax combination jet/vacuum truck will be an addition to the City’s Fleet assigned to the Sewer Maintenance Department. Due to the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) new Clean Fleet Initiative, this vehicle may no longer be available after January 1, 2024, in California. Purchasing this vehicle ahead of this deadline will provide the needed time for the technology to improve and allow an equivalent unit to become available.

The City is utilizing cooperative pricing through Sourcewell Contract No. 101221-GPV with GapVax, Inc . for the purchase of this vehicle . The vehicle will be purchased from Plumber’s Depot, who is the exclusive distributor of GapVax Combination Jet/Vacuum Report to Mayor and City Council
Re: Approve Purchase Order No. 20230495 with Plumber’s Depot April 19, 2023

Page 2 ends

Trucks for the lower region of California, including Southern California and the lower portions of Central California. The truck is currently available to pick up and should be operational within the next two months.

DISCUSSION
The new GapVax combination jet/vacuum truck will enable the Sewer Division to maintain two (2) independent cleaning crews to complete scheduled maintenance on the City’s sewer system. Currently crews maintain around 750,000 linear feet (142 miles) of sewer mainlines per year and this purchase will allow the division to increase their annual production rates. Addition of this vehicle will also free up an existing hydro jetter which is used to prepare sewer lines for CCTV inspection and root abatement, thus increasing efficiency of both maintenance programs.

Staff recommends that the City Council Approve purchase order 20230495 with Plumber’s Depot for a second GapVax MC1510-3S4S Combination Jet/Vacuum Truck in an amount not to exceed $604,992.

FISCAL IMPACT
The purchase order amount for one (1) new GapVax MC1510-3S4S Combination Jet/Vacuum Truck for FY 2022-2023 will not exceed $604,992. Sufficient funds are budgeted in Fleet Maintenance Account 15433006-774400.
