department. With the upcoming budget and end of fiscal year review, the department is in need of a department head’s direction and leadership. Furthermore, the newly hired Deputy Director is set to take an extended leave of absence, resulting in a lack of executive leadership within the department.

Under Government Code section 21221(g) of the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) a CalPERS municipality is allowed to hire a retired annuitant when there is an active member who is out on leave, and there is a need to utilize a retired annuitant to fill in the vacancy. The following are the conditions and limitations on such appointments, per the Government Code Section 21221(g) PERL:

Upon employment by a contracting agency to a position found by the governing body, by resolution, to be available because of a leave of absence granted to a person on payroll status for a period not to exceed one year and found by the governing body to require specialized skills. The temporary employment shall be terminated at the end of the leave of absence. Appointments under this section shall be reported to the board and shall be accompanied by the resolution adopted by the governing body.

Staff anticipates services needed would be for 40 hours per week at a rate of $85 per hour, not-to-exceed $150,000 for the combined two (2) fiscal years of 2023-24 and 2024-

25. Conclusion:

Staff recommends that City Council approve a resolution appointing Retired Annuitant Kenneth L. Louie as Interim Director of Administrative Services and Amendment No. 1 to Agreement No. 24-2292 with Kenneth L. Louie, in an amount not-to-exceed $150,000 for Interim Administrative Services Director. Approval will ensure that department operations continue to function efficiently while accomplishing City goals.

Meeting Date: March 26, 2024
Subject: AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH HARRIS & ASSOCIATES, INC., FOR A

DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE STUDY
Recommendation:

1. Award a Professional Services Agreement to Harris & Associates, Inc. to prepare a Development Impact Fee Study for an amount not-to-exceed $57,000; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Professional Services Agreement with Harris & Associates, Inc., in a form approved by the City Attorney for a term of one (1) year with a second-year extension if required.

Fiscal Impact:

Sufficient funding is available in the fiscal (FY) 2024-25 Adopted Budget, within the General Fund Account No. 180.30.3010-54400 (Professional Services). No additional appropriations are needed at this time.

Background:

Development Impact Fees (DIF) allow cities to collect fees to fund improvements that address infrastructure and facility impacts from new development projects.

DIF’s are based on proposed facility and infrastructure requirements identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program. DIFs must comply with the Mitigation Fee Act (California Government Code Section 66000 et seq., also known as “AB 1600”). Under the Mitigation Fee Act, a local agency imposing mitigation fees is required to make certain findings annually and every five (5) years. If the findings are not made, the local agency must refund all unexpended fees to all current record owners of property against which the fee was imposed. Furthermore, Assembly Bill 602, which became State law on January 1, 2022, made significant procedural and substantive changes in the ways that local governments may calculate, establish, and publicly disclose their development impact fees and fee policies. AB 602 will now require that local agencies adopt an 8 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 26, 2024

AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HARRIS & ASSOCIATES, INC., FOR A DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE STUDY

Page 2 of 3 ends

appropriate nexus study, which supports and justifies the calculation and imposition of DIFs, as a pre-condition to the adoption of new development fees. Other changes created by AB 602 include:
• Generally, requires that nexus studies shall “identify the existing level of service for each public facility,” and if it is claimed that the nexus study supports the increase of an existing fee, this bill requires the local agency to review the assumptions supporting the existing fee and the amount of fees collected under the existing fee schedule;
• Generally, requires that a nexus study for a fee “imposed on a housing project adopted after July 1, 2022, shall calculate the fee proportionately to the square footage of proposed units” in the development project (subject to local exception); and
• Nexus studies must be updated at least every eight (8) years.

The City currently has two development impact fees that include the following:

Park Land Dedication In-Lieu Fee
The City requires residential developments with subdivisions to dedicate land, or pay a fee in lieu thereof, or both, for park and/or recreation purposes based on the average fair market value for the City. The requirement does not apply to commercial or industrial subdivisions. The amount of land to be dedicated is calculated as follows:
• 0.008 acres per resident of the subdivision. The number of residents of the subdivision shall be calculated by multiplying the number of residential units by the average number of persons per household. The presumption contained in Section 66477 of the Subdivision Map Act may be used to calculate the average number of persons per household.

Public Image Enhancement (PIE)
The Public Image Enhancement (PIE) fee from the adopted 1993 General Plan was meant to enhance the overall image of the city through aesthetic and cultural improvements. The fee applies to all new developments in residential zones with building valuations of $100,000 or more, or for new or remodeled development in all commercial and industrial zones of building valuations of $150,000 or more. Fees are paid at time of certificate of occupancy issuance, and are calculated as follows:
• Residential: 0.5% of building valuation. For an owner-constructed and owneroccupied single-family residential unit, the first one hundred thousand dollars of building valuation is exempt from fee calculations; fees shall be calculated based on valuations greater than one hundred thousand dollars. For all other uses, fees shall include the first one hundred thousand dollars of building valuation.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF MARCH 26, 2024

AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HARRIS & ASSOCIATES, INC., FOR A DEVELOPMENT IMPACT FEE STUDY

Page 3 of 3 ends

• Commercial or Industrial: 1.0% of building valuation. Expenditure of fee may only be allotted for public space and right-of-way improvements.

Discussion:

The City received four (4) proposals including DTA Municipal Solutions, Harris & Associates, Inc. (Harris), Matrix Consulting Group, and Willdan Financial Services. Staff reviewed proposals and held interviews with each firm. Firms were scored utilizing the following criteria: 1) Understanding of the scope of work, 2) Demonstrated professional skill and credentials, 3) Related experience and references, 4) Quality of work samples, and 5) Approach to performing this type of service.

Staff arrived at the consensus that Harris was the most qualified respondent based on the evaluation criteria. Harris demonstrated an understanding of the City’s scope for the DIF study, a comprehensive project timeline and emphasized the importance of the community outreach component.

Environmental analysis:

The award of the contract does not have the potential for creating a significant effect on the environment and is therefore exempt from further review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15060(c)(3) because it is not a project as defined by the CEQA Guidelines Section 15378.

The agreement does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. If any new DIF fees are implemented, they will be reviewed for CEQA compliance.

Conclusion:

Staff recommends awarding a Professional Services Agreement to Harris & Associates, Inc., to prepare a Development Impact Fee Study on an as-needed basis for a term of one (1) year in an amount not-to-exceed $57,000 with a second-year extension if required.

provisions of that code, and I will comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this contract.”

Fiscal Impact:

The contract amount for each firm is not-to-exceed $2,500,000 for a term of five (5) years to provide construction management services and inspection services. No Purchase Orders (PO) will be opened upon execution of these agreements. The Engineering Division will process POs on an as-needed basis with selected firms to provide the construction management and inspection services. It is anticipated that future work may be awarded to any of the consulting firms, depending on their competitive task proposals that they will submit on a project-by-project basis. Accounts for the PO’s will be established based on the task-order and project-appropriated funding source(s) associated with each City capital project assigned to the consulting firm. Funding will be based on appropriations approved for each project’s budget, with funds such as Local Return Funds, applicable State grants and budgeted General Fund.

Discussion:

As has previously been the case, the Public Works Department requires construction management and inspections services for various Capital Improvement Projects (CIP).

Due to current staffing levels, the Department does not currently have available resources to administer and inspect CIPs. To provide readily available and qualified resources, staff recommend the procurement of qualified consultants to provide on-call construction management and inspection services. Typical services provided under this procurement include construction administration, inspection, material testing and labor compliance for roadway pavement rehabilitation and/or restoration, streetscape, landscaping and irrigation systems, utility, bridges, safety lighting, traffic signal, water treatment and distribution systems, sewer systems, flood control and storm drain facilities, parks, general facilities and other Public Works construction projects. All services will be provided on an as-needed basis.

Services are provided to nationwide clientele through three subsidiary firms – Willdan Engineering, Willdan Energy Solutions, and Willdan Financial Services – that offer a portfolio of diversified strengths. Willdan infuses a corporate culture of Customer-First throughout our entire staffing resources and all services provided to our clients. Looking out for our clients’ best interests is at the forefront of everything we do.

Our services and in-house support disciplines encompass urban and regional planning; traffic, civil, structural, geotechnical, right-of-way, city, and special district engineering; program/construction management and inspection; plan, study, and report review; building safety; drainage and flood control; mapping; and other complementary services such as GIS, utility coordination and relocation, and landscape architecture. With this depth of experience, expertise, knowledge, and resources, Willdan offers comprehensive solutions that are timely, cost effective, and tailored to meet the needs of individual communities. Our understanding of public agency challenges and needs is what makes Willdan unique.

Financial Strength
Willdan maintains a strong balance sheet with the financial and staffing resources to perform and complete all contractual obligations. We have continued to grow to better serve our clients by offering a continuously expanding range of municipal services. Willdan operates out of 51 offices located throughout the United States and over 1,500 employees.

Financial information, including information on revenue, earnings, and cash flow, are issued quarterly, and can be found at www.willdan.com.

Corporate Mission and Philosophy
From Day 1, Willdan has maintained a business strategy focused on providing services to only public agencies. Today, 98 percent of our business is with public agencies. This strategy prevents potential conflicts of interest with private enterprises conducting business with our public agency clients or within their jurisdiction. Unique to Willdan is our understanding of public agency needs and issues. Willdan’s professionals often serve to extend our clients’ staff in the capacity of city and traffic engineers, planning directors, building officials, and other public agency positions. Additionally, many provide the added value of having served in public agency management positions prior to joining Willdan.

To meet and, on many occasions, exceed the expectations of our clients, Willdan fosters and instills a corporate culture of Customer-First among our staff and in our day-to-day work environment. Looking out for the County’s best interests is at the forefront of everything we do. Our customer-focused philosophy is particularly evident when dealing with complex situations and difficult challenges that are hard to resolve.

On-call engineering services are the center of Willdan's foundation – being the core of Willdan's founding in 1964.

City of Pico Rivera – Proposal for On-Call Construction Management and Inspection Services Consultants and/or Sub-consultants
Willdan's strength of staffing resources and available in-house disciplines enables us to provide all services and disciplines required for Pico Rivera’s on-call construction management and inspections services contract without the use of subconsultants.

Work Approach
Willdan understands that the City of Pico Rivera may seek assistance on numerous types of projects under this on call construction management contract, such as street rehabilitation, sewer improvements, storm drain improvements, bridge construction, new building construction, water service and pipelines, pump and motor improvements, irrigation and landscaping, site improvements, system controls and instrumentation, streets and park lighting, parks and recreation facility improvements, mechanical systems, electrical systems, and traffic signal improvements.

Construction management services will include
constructability reviews, bid analysis, staff reports,
general contract administration submittal and RFI
review and processing, constructability reviews, change order review, safety monitoring, progress payment
review and processing, inspection, claims review and
analysis, labor compliance, community workforce
agreement compliance, project closeout, community
outreach, and federal funding administration.

Inspection efforts shall effectively and efficiently ensure that all work complies with the approved construction
documents and applicable codes and regulations (i.e.

Caltrans, APWA, AWWA, City of Pico Rivera, and Los
Angeles County.) Through Willdan's long history of
providing these identical services to cities and counties throughout California, we have ascertained that success working under this type of on-call contract is dependent upon understanding a variety of elements such as:
 Short project durations and minimal lead times for assignments may be required  Flexibility in service assignments, understanding work to date, and coordinating completion of project tasks already started by agency staff is crucial  Staff availability to work assignments as they develop is critical to moving projects forward  Efficient use of resources is important for project assignments that are relatively small  Consistent, organized project management is vital due to the potentially large numbers of projects that may be in process
 Regular attention to quality assurance and control is particularly important as short-term projects may limit the number of interim review steps often associated with a project-specific contract At any given time, Willdan has over 200 on-call contracts where project assignments are issued by the public agency on an as-needed basis. The project scopes, schedules, and costs are negotiated and agreed upon prior to project award. Every month, Willdan reports the progress performance of each project. The scope of services requested vary from project to project and can include any combination of constructability reviews, bidding assistance, construction management, construction inspection, labor compliance, materials testing, utility and outside agency coordination, and project closeout.

On-Call Experience Key Advantages
 Willdan's history of working with on-call
contracts has well prepared our staff to
respond to all requests for services in a
positive, efficient manner
 Delivers the combination of experienced,
hands-on skills and perspective that ensures
the City receives high-quality service at
reasonable and competitive cost
 Assures that, in selecting Willdan, clients
benefit from the expertise, experience, and
professionalism needed to be successful in
delivering high-quality projects and services
on time and within budget

Willdan’s approach to construction management starts with assigning the appropriate staff to fit the assignment’s needs. For construction projects, the primary team members will include a construction manager and the project inspector. Our management team will work closely with the City’s Project Manager to assign the most qualified individuals to each project. To achieve these goals, Willdan’s approach to management and inspection of the City’s construction projects includes:
 Thorough review of project specifications and plans

City of Pico Rivera – Proposal for On-Call Construction Management and Inspection Services There are many routine aspects that are common to the way every construction project is performed in terms of construction administration and inspection of development, permitted, and capital improvement projects as outlined in our scope and in the diagram below:

Willdan adopted the Caltrans' Construction Manual as our in-house quality standard and have incorporated Caltrans' prescribed standards and procedures into our everyday inspection routine. This ensures we meet federal and state guidelines from the start. To supplement the Caltrans Construction Manual, we have also developed checklists as a means of quality control for our typical project field files, federally funded project documentation, BMP inspections, slurry seal inspections, ARHM paving inspections, water main inspections, and traffic signal inspections.

Contractor Compliance: Our staff has extensive experience with a myriad of public works projects and has a clear understanding of the issues surrounding inspection of the work. For example, when constructing sidewalks and ADA-compliant ramps, our team will ensure adequate subgrade compaction has been achieved. They will monitor the work for conformance with the plans, specifications, and ADA requirements. The concrete tickets will be checked to ensure materials match the approved mix design. A smart level will be used to check forms and the contractor will not be approved to place concrete until the work meets all City and other applicable standards. Willdan’s team will monitor the contractor’s operations for conformance with City compaction standards by working with the City’s approved material testing lab and will not accept any trench backfill or allow any pavement repair until proper compaction is verified by the lab.

Project Budgets: Construction costs are proactively managed and tracked against available budgets by our Construction Managers. This starts with an initial quantity takeoff from the construction plans, utilizing Bluebeam Revu, serving as an independent audit of the project quantities as they correlate to the bid schedule quantities. Early identification of potential quantity busts and continual monitoring of quantities throughout construction is key to maintaining project costs within established budgets. Our team creates and maintains change order logs and final cost projection spreadsheets on a weekly basis to document and track all quantity adjustments, approved change orders, pending change orders, and potential change orders. The City’s Project Manager is kept abreast of the project budget status throughout construction so that adjustments can be made to the scope of the project, or proper procedures can be followed to request additional funding, if needed to stay within the established contingencies. Willdan’s team also focuses on quickly processing RFIs and change order requests and providing direction to the Contractor as needed to keep them moving and avoid costly delays.

Proposal for Construction Management
And Inspection Services 23
City of Pico Rivera – Proposal for On-Call Construction Management and Inspection Services Scheduling: The contractor’s critical path method baseline schedule will be reviewed and accepted prior to issuance of a notice to proceed. The schedule will identify major items of work and will be the vehicle for monitoring, controlling, and tracking progress. The schedule will be required to be updated monthly to reflect actual and forecasted completions. This allows our construction managers to anticipate and forecast potential issues and develop an advanced strategy to proactively mitigate problems before they impact the schedule. In instances where schedule delays are expected to occur, due to weather, approval requirements or information from an outside agency, material shortages, or other unanticipated factors, the City’s Project Manager will be immediately notified of the potential project delay. Strategies will be developed and implemented to resolve project challenges and expedite the approval of the affected projects. As the Project Manager, Mr.Baca will monitor all progress on a weekly basis.

Cloud-Based Construction Management: Willdan is experienced in utilizing cloud-based applications, such as Procore and Virtual Project Manager (VPM), to manage the paperwork and record keeping on CIP projects. Upon startup of a new construction project, Contractor RFIs and submittals are provided through the cloud-based application, assigned to an appropriate team member, comments or responses are uploaded to the project site, and all parties are notified via email when the document is uploaded. The cloud-based application automatically creates and maintains logs to track the status of each submittal and RFI. Willdan’s electronic project records are also maintained on the applications so that our clients have access to the project records in real time.

Customer Service: To meet and often exceed the expectations of our clients, Willdan fosters and instills a corporate culture of Customer-First among our staff and in our day-to-day work environment.

Looking out for our customer’s best interests is at the forefront of everything we do. Our customerfocused philosophy is particularly evident when dealing with complex situations and difficult to resolve challenges. Willdan's corporate goal is to exceed the City of Pico Rivera’s expectations.

The FCG Team carefully plans and tailors the scope for each assignment, specific to the client and project needs. We are fully dedicated to achieving every project and client goal and standard.

Financial Condition: FCG is financially sound and has no bankruptcy, pending litigation, planned office closures, or impending mergers. FCG is not prohibited from professional practice or working with any Federal, State, local or public agency.

Similar and Government Agency Experience: Our previous experience and ability to mobilize quickly and keep the project momentum moving forward allows us to present City of Pico Rivera with a quality team that can work together to deliver a project successfully and on-time. The FCG Team members have worked on two projects with the City of Pico Rivera: Telegraph Road Traffic Safety Enhancements Project and Various Traffic Signal Improvements Project. The FCG Team provided Construction Management, Inspection, and Materials Testing services on both contracts and were able to successfully deliver both projects. The Telegraph XX Project was a joint venture between the Cities of Pico Rivera and Downey and the Signal Improvements Project was City of Pico Rivera Only. However, both projects were Federally Funded where the FCG Team performed full contract administration in accordance with FHWA and LAPM requirements and the FCG Team completed all documents and federal reviews timely.

Differentiator: FCG staff can efficiently staff projects with the most committed, experienced, and knowledgeable staff with relevant experience to each project. The FCG Team can provide large business service with a team of multi-discipline professionals; however, what differentiates our firm from others is having the ability to provide a small business, clientfocused, and customer-service approach to deliver each client the one-on-one attention needed to specifically tailor costeffective solutions and solve project needs.

Our personnel are highly qualified and experienced in their respective disciplines. Each of their qualifications illustrate multiple projects, past and present, they have worked on. We are proposing a sum of experienced candidates with the appropriate experience, as per the city’s requirements and the RFP, who are ready and available to be deployed. This pursuit is a team effort and FCG is committed to ensuring the City of Pico Rivera receives the highest quality service from the appropriate. Our team is always equipped and ready to tackle all projects within hours.
