Current Staffing Capability and
Availability / Work Load
IMEG and our team members are available and
committed to provide engineering services for
the City of Pico Rivera. We have approximately
2,800 employees across the country, we have
the ability to “borrow” staff from other IMEG
offices when the need arises, both in an internal
consultant role to bring in specific technical
expertise, and to assist with production of the
construction documents. Our extensive use of
cloud-based storage and services enables such
collaboration to be performed seamlessly.

A crucial factor in successfully completing each
project with precision and efficiency is your
project team. Our personnel constitute the core
of our company and are the pivotal element in
every project we undertake. Ensuring that the
team members listed will be designated to and
accessible for your project is a commitment
IMEG upholds.

Timely Schedules
At the outset of all IMEG projects, the owner’s
schedule is reviewed and critical milestone
dates are identified. Using that as the overall
framework, internal schedules are developed and
interim milestones are established to assist in
keeping the design on track. Breaking the design
process into smaller increments in this manner
allows scheduling issues to be identified early
so that they may be addressed. When necessary,
additional IMEG staff is assigned to temporarily
assist in the effort and help bring the design
process back within the schedule parameters.

As a national firm, we have the resources to
augment staff to accommodate schedule
fluctuations and keep the project on track.

We will be active participants in working with
the team on each project schedule. We’ll rely on
the timely delivery of information provided by
others and we understand that others will rely
on us delivering timely information to them. As a
direct result of our experience in multiple project
types and delivery methods, we understand the
time required for each step and will be active
participants in the scheduling process so that
there are no assumptions or surprises.

Critical to our overall process is the ability to
accurately and swiftly evaluate the existing
systems materials and products we will be
working with. Our communication with our
project team partners and all stakeholders during
design and construction is also paramount to
make sure renovation projects run smoothly.

Work Approach
IMEG | City of Pico Rivera | HVAC and Electrical Design Services 17 Work Approach
Project Understanding
IMEG is honored to have the opportunity to
provide HVAC and electrical design services for
the City of Pico Rivera. Our extensive experience
in delivering comprehensive mechanical,
electrical, and plumbing (MEP) engineering
solutions aligns perfectly with the goals of
this project. The City is seeking a detailed
assessment of the HVAC systems at Rivera
Park and Pico Park Gymnasiums, followed by
engineering design for new HVAC equipment,
controls, and any necessary electrical upgrades.

The objective of this project is to address
the current HVAC deficiencies and ensure
the systems provide adequate air handling,
temperature control, and compliance with
current building codes. IMEG will take a holistic
approach to the design, ensuring optimal
energy efficiency, sustainability, and long-term
operational performance.

Our team will work closely with City
stakeholders to deliver a fully integrated design
that aligns with the City’s expectations. Final
100% bid documents will be completed within
the required four-month timeframe, ensuring
the project is ready for construction bidding.

Project Approach

1. Initiation and Project Management
IMEG will facilitate a project kick-off meeting
with key representatives from the City of Pico
Rivera to review the detailed project scope,
establish roles and responsibilities, and define
project outcomes. We believe that clear
communication and coordination are critical
to the successful completion of this project.

Our project management approach emphasizes
proactive communication with all stakeholders,
ensuring that key milestones—such as 70%,
95%, and 100% design reviews—are met on
schedule.

Key Components:
• Facilitation of kick-off meeting and project
scope review
• Development and maintenance of a detailed
project schedule, with monthly updates
• Regular status meetings at key design stages
(70%, 95%, and 100%)
• Meeting minutes, agendas, and monthly
executive summaries of progress
Deliverables:
• Detailed project schedule with monthly
updates
• Meeting agendas and minutes
• Executive project status summaries

2. Utility Coordination and Site
Investigation
IMEG will coordinate with Southern California
Edison (SCE) and SoCal gas utility companies
to ensure all necessary infrastructure upgrades
are implemented effectively. We will prepare
and maintain a utility matrix documenting all
contacts, issues, and coordination efforts.

In conjunction with this, our team will conduct
a thorough survey and site investigation to
document the existing HVAC and electrical
systems at both gymnasiums and any upstream
source equipment affected by the gymnasium
IMEG | City of Pico Rivera | HVAC and Electrical Design Services 18 project. This assessment will highlight the
current deficiencies, such as air distribution,
equipment age, and ventilation issues, spare
and current load capacities, along with
recommendations for system replacements and
upgrades.

Key Components:
• Coordination with utility providers for
necessary upgrades
• Site survey and documentation of existing
conditions
• Detailed field assessment memo and
deficiency report
Deliverables:
• Utility matrix and coordination
documentation
• Report on existing conditions and system
deficiencies
• Field notes, photos, and assessment findings

3. Engineering Design and
Construction Documents
IMEG will utilize the data gathered during
the preliminary engineering phase to
develop comprehensive 70%, 95%, and
100% construction documents. These will
cover all mechanical, electrical, structural,
and architectural elements needed for the
new HVAC system design. Our designs will
incorporate Title 24 mechanical calculations
to ensure energy performance and ventilation
compliance. All documents will be thoroughly
reviewed for quality assurance (QA/QC) by
licensed engineers.

We will ensure that the new HVAC systems are
designed to meet the City’s long-term needs,
providing energy-efficient, durable solutions
that reduce operational costs and enhance
occupant comfort.

Key Components:
• CAD services for as-built drawings and field
verification
• Title 24 calculations for energy and
ventilation compliance
• Design development and reviews at 70%,
95%, and 100% completion
• Engineering cost estimates for construction
(opinion of probable cost) during 70%, 95%,
and 100% completion
• Compliance with City of Pico Rivera
AutoCAD standards and Public Works forms
Deliverables:
• As-built drawings and mechanical
calculations
• 70%, 95%, and 100% PS&E plans in PDF and
AutoCAD format
• Signed and stamped bid-ready documents by
licensed engineers

4. Bidding and Construction Support
IMEG will provide full support during the
bidding phase, including attending pre-bid
meetings, responding to contractors’ RFIs,
and preparing addenda as needed. Once
construction begins, our team will be available
for submittal reviews, RFIs, and site visits to
address any issues that arise during installation.

We will ensure that the design is executed
properly and all components are installed
according to plan.

Key Components:
• Pre-bid meeting attendance and contractor
support
• Submittal reviews and responses to RFIs
• On-site visits by engineers to resolve
construction issues
IMEG | City of Pico Rivera | HVAC and Electrical Design Services 19 Deliverables:
• Tabulated RFI responses and project addenda
• Final walk-through and site visit reports

5. Final As-Built Documentation
Upon completion of the project, IMEG will
prepare and submit final as-built drawings in
both electronic and hardcopy formats. These
documents will reflect the as-built conditions
based on information provided by the City’s
Construction Manager and Contractor.

Deliverables:
• Complete set of revised as-built drawings and
bound electronic files
Staffing and Commitment
IMEG is committed to providing a highly
experienced team for this project. Our Ontario
office will serve as the primary resource,
ensuring a local point of contact. The team
includes licensed mechanical, electrical, and
structural engineers, all of whom bring a wealth

From: City Manager
Meeting Date: December 10, 2024
Subject: AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AGREEMENT NO. 23-2172 WITH

PM LAW ENFORCEMENT CONSULTING SERVICES FOR

PUBLIC SAFETY COORDINATOR CONSULTING SERVICES
Recommendation:

1. Approve Amendment No. 2 to Agreement No. 23-2172, in a form approved by the City Attorney, for Public Safety Coordinator consulting services extending the agreement for an additional 12-month period from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025, increases the monthly fee to $6,000 ($72,000 annually) for a new not-to-exceed amount to $182,000.

Fiscal Impact:

The annual amount of these consulting services is estimated at $72,000. With the addition of $12,000 to the previously approved amount of $60,000, the new annual amount, if approved, will be $72,000. Sufficient funds exist within the General Fund (Administration) Budget Account No. 100.15.100-54500 (Contracted Services) to properly fund these services. No additional appropriations are needed.

Background:

The City of Pico Rivera’s (City) current agreement with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (Sheriff’s) for law enforcement services is for a 5-year period, beginning July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2029. Projected costs for law enforcement services provided by the Pico Rivera Sheriff’s Department in fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 are $13.9 million, inclusive of liability fees and equipment. FY 2023-24 Sheriff’s contract assigns 39.6 sworn officers and two (2) civilian personnel for public safety services in the City. To address emerging issues with homelessness and ensure city parks are safe environments for residents, the City amended the scope of services to assign deputies to assist with homelessness intervention and patrol city park facilities.

The City Council recognized the importance of public safety and the need for effective coordination between law enforcement agencies and community stakeholders. To enhance this coordination, the City Council launched a pilot program in February 2023, which added 9 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF DECEMBER 10, 2024 AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AGREEMENT NO. 23-2172 WITH PM LAW ENFORCEMENT

CONSULTING SERVICES FOR PUBLIC SAFETY COORDINATOR CONSULTING

SERVICES

a Public Safety Coordinator position at the City. The primary goal of the Public Safety Coordinator pilot program was to determine if this position could improve public safety and emergency response by coordinating efforts between law enforcement, fire, emergency medical services, emergency management personnel, and other community stakeholders to strategically allocate resources and identify priorities and opportunities for enhancements. By utilizing best practices such as leveraging data, crime statistics, and program evaluation, the program aimed to ensure that the Public Safety Coordinator position contributed to improving public safety outcomes within the City.

Discussion:

Shortly after the pilot program was launched, the City entered into Professional Services Agreement No. 23-2172 with PM Law Enforcement Consulting Services (PM), supervised by Phillip Marquez, former Captain of the Sheriff’s Department (Pico Rivera Station). Since former Captain Marquez joined the City as the Public Safety Coordinator in April 2023, he has been at the forefront of driving the following objectives:

1. Strengthen Public Safety/Community Relationships: Work closely with law enforcement agencies and other community stakeholders to strengthen relationships with public safety personnel and the community based on mutual respect and trust. This helps to foster collaboration and cooperation between different groups, leading to improved public safety outcomes.

2. Improve Communication: Serves as a liaison for community members, law enforcement agencies, fire, emergency response personnel, emergency medical services and other stakeholders. The goal is to improve communication between these groups, ensuring that everyone is informed of important public safety issues and initiatives and allow for preparedness and timely responses.

3. Collaborate with Other Departments: Work closely with other departments within the city, such as public works, parks and recreation, and code enforcement, to identify and address public safety issues that may be impacted by their respective areas.

4. Develop and Implement Community Safety Plans: Work with community stakeholders, LA County Sherriff, LA County Fire, and City Emergency Operations staff to develop and implement community safety plans. This involves identifying key public safety issues and developing strategies to address them.

5. Coordinate Resources: Work to coordinate and prepare recommendations for staffing levels and resources from law enforcement agencies. This helps ensure that resources are optimized to address public safety issues. Additionally, the Public Safety Coordinator has been tasked with identifying, applying to, and securing additional resources to supplement community safety efforts from grant CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF DECEMBER 10, 2024 AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO AGREEMENT NO. 23-2172 WITH PM LAW ENFORCEMENT

CONSULTING SERVICES FOR PUBLIC SAFETY COORDINATOR CONSULTING

SERVICES

opportunities or other available sources of funding.

6. Use data to inform decisions: The Public Safety Coordinator also uses data and analytics to identify and prioritize public safety issues within the community. This helps ensure that efforts are focused on the most pressing issues and that progress can be measured and evaluated over time.

Former Captain Marquez has been instrumental in meeting the following City demands during this past two (2) years as Public Safety Coordinator:
• Procuring Shotspotter - ShotSpotter technology is a gunfire detection, analysis and alert system which enhances a Sheriff’s Department's response and investigation.

Due to former Captain Marquez’s extensive network of colleges in the law enforcement field, he was able to link the City with key personnel who already utilize the Shotspotter system. He was also able to assist the team at Shotspotter to identify key areas that would benefit from the technology. • Social Host Ordinance - A Social Host Ordinance is a law that holds non-commercial individuals responsible for underage drinking at parties on property they own, lease, or otherwise control. These events are marketed to patrons of all ages but focus on underage youth. In addition, these events lack supervision or security and have recently led to violent and often deadly outcomes for participants in this community.

Former Captain Marquez collaborated with the Public Safety Ad Hoc Committee to draft language that will become legislation to safeguard the safety of our residents, primarily underage youth.
• Street Takeover Ordinance - The Street Takeover Ordinance and its enforcement provides the City with additional resources to address the issue of illegal street takeovers, prevent such activities, and ensure that the roadways in Pico Rivera remain safe for everyone.
• Enhancing the coordination of efforts between the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and other law enforcement agencies for special projects. • Enhancing after-hours public safety efforts with the introduction of Public Safety Security Services provided by Southwest Patrol. Through this effort, Southwest Patrol was contracted to provide additional support in handling issues such as homeless encampments and petty theft, thereby allowing deputy sheriffs to focus on more serious criminal activities.

Procurement:

Per Pico Rivera Municipal Code (PRMC) Section 3.20.030(B) (Sole Source Purchasing):
“The city may dispense with the bidding requirements if it finds that the supplies, services, or equipment are unique because of their quality, durability, availability, or fitness for a particular use and are available only from one source, or, if available from more than one source, can be purchased from the manufacturer or service provider for a lower price”.

CONSULTING SERVICES FOR PUBLIC SAFETY COORDINATOR CONSULTING

SERVICES

The City has determined that the services offered by former Captain Marquez meet the Sole Source Purchasing requirement under Section 3.20.030.B (Sole Source Purchasing) of the Pico Rivera Municipal Code (PRMC). Furthermore, the decision to appoint former Captain Marquez was influenced by his extensive experience with the Sheriff's and his service to the City of Pico Rivera.

The initial agreement with PM, effective in April 2023 (Agreement No. 23-2172), provided Public Safety Coordinator services for a maximum amount of $50,000. Amendment No. 1, which was approved by Council on December 12, 2023 authorized the extension of the contract to December 31, 2024, and increased the amount by an additional $60,000, at a new not-to-exceed amount of $110,000.

PM has provided exemplary services in the 20 months of providing Public Safety Coordinator assistance to the City. In order to continue acquiring these services, staff is requesting a second amendment to this contract. If approved by City Council, Amendment No. 2 (Enclosure 1) extends the service period through December 31, 2025, and also increases the monthly fee to $6,000 ($72,000 annually) for a new not-to-exceed amount to $182,000.

Conclusion:

Staff recommends the City Council approve Amendment No. 2 to Agreement No. 23-2172 between the City of Pico Rivera and PM Law Enforcement Consulting Services to extend the term through December 31, 2025, reflecting a new not-to-exceed total amount of $182,000.

Meeting Date: December 10, 2024
Subject: APPROVAL OF THE 2025-26 RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION

PAYMENT SCHEDULE AND CORRESPONDING

ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET
Recommendation:

1. Approve a resolution of the Successor Agency to the Pico Rivera Redevelopment Agency (Successor Agency) approving the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (ROPS) for the period of July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026 (ROPS 2025-26) and approving of the Successor Agency Administrative Budget for the fiscal year (FY) 2025-26.

Fiscal Impact:

With the dissolution of local redevelopment agencies, Assembly Bill (AB) X1 26, the City of Pico Rivera (City) chose to serve as the Successor Agency to the former Redevelopment Agency. Subsequently, pursuant to Senate Bill (SB) 107, the Successor Agency is required to prepare and send an annual County Oversight Board approved ROPS to the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller and State Department of Finance (DOF) by February 1st of each year. ROPS 2025-26 identifies all enforceable obligations of the former Redevelopment Agency, such as debt service payments, loan repayments, commercial property contracts, etc., and the sources of funds for repaying these obligations for the period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The Successor Agency's ROPS 2025-26 will be presented at the County Oversight Board's meeting in early January 2025, for approval.

Approval of the ROPS (and subsequent approval by both the Oversight Board and DOF) would be necessary to receive funding (in the form of Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Funds, or RPTTF) from the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller for payment of the Successor Agency’s enforceable obligations in FY 2025-26. In total, the Successor Agency is requesting $820,035 of RPTTF and to use $1,317,500 of reserved funds and $1,065,000 of other funds to fund three (3) enforceable obligations, including an administrative cost allowance, for FY 2025-26, as is noted in Enclosure 1, Exhibit A.

These obligations, as well as the Successor Agency wind-down, are expected to continue until December 2025, when the 2021 Tax Allocation Bonds are paid off. In the meantime, the County Auditor-Controller has unilaterally opted to withhold deferral repayments from RPTTF as negotiated pass-through prior to distributing to the Successor Agency. The balance of the deferral is approximately $42 million. 11 SUCCESSOR AGENCY AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF DECEMBER 10, 2024 APPROVAL OF THE 2025-26 RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE

AND CORRESPONDING ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET

The Successor Agency must submit a copy of the ROPS 2025-26, after approval from the First District Oversight Board to the County Administrative Office, County AuditorController, State Controller’s Office, and DOF by February 1, 2025. If the Successor Agency fails to meet this deadline, the City may be liable for substantial penalties, including a $10,000 per day penalty for each day past the deadline that ROPS 2025-26 is not submitted to the DOF.

Discussion:

The Successor Agency is proposing payment of three (3) enforceable obligations with outstanding balances on ROPS 2025-26, including the administrative cost allowance.

The enforceable obligations total $3,202,535, as shown on the ROPS 2025-26, Enclosure 1, Column K.

Payments of ROPS obligations are divided between two (2) periods: 25-26A, paid in June 2025, for obligations due between July and December, and 25-26B, paid in January 2026, for obligations due between January and June.

The Successor Agency’s enforceable obligations consist of the following items:

Line 2 Loan from former Redevelopment Agency’s Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund for the 2010 Supplemental Education Revenue Augmentation Fund Payment (SERAF)
The former redevelopment agency loaned funds from the affordable housing set aside funds in 2010, in order to remit a state-mandated payment to the Supplemental Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund; approximately $1.5 million of the former housing fund loan, owed to the City Housing Successor Agency, is to be repaid from future RPTTF for purposes of funding affordable housing in the City. Amounts available for this SERAF loan are determined by a repayment formula, equal to one-half of the increase between the ROPS residual pass-through distributed to the taxing entities in the preceding fiscal year and the ROPS residual pass-through distributed to the taxing entities in the fiscal year 2012-13 base year, which was $0. Based on the SERAF formula, the City anticipates a payment of $397,641 for the SERAF loan on ROPS 2025-26. However, this figure is an estimate and is subject to change based on the actual 24-25B residual pass-through distribution, which will be released on or about January 2, 2025. If the final residual pass-through distribution is higher than expected, Successor Agency staff may revise the ROPS to incorporate the actual eligible SERAF loan payment.

Line 6 Administrative Cost Allowance
The administrative allowance is limited to the greater of $250,000 per year or three percent (3%) of the RPTTF distributed in the prior fiscal year, excluding the administrative allowance and any City/Former Agency loan repayments.

However, the administrative allowance cannot exceed fifty percent (50%) of RPTTF distributed in the prior fiscal year, excluding the administrative SUCCESSOR AGENCY AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF DECEMBER 10, 2024 APPROVAL OF THE 2025-26 RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE

AND CORRESPONDING ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET

allowance and any City/Former Agency loan repayments.

The City has requested $150,000 on the ROPS 2025-26, based on administrative expenses from the past three (3) fiscal years and the intent to start working on the successor agency dissolution. The funds are also necessary for the ongoing dissolution administration.

Line 20 2021 Tax Allocation Refunding Bond Debt Service The Successor Agency refunded the 2001 Tax Allocation Bonds with 2021 Tax Allocation Bonds in December 2021. The Successor Agency is responsible for principal and interest payments on the 2021 Bonds until it is paid off in December 2025. The principal is paid once a year, while interest is paid semiannually. As explained below, during the ROPS 2025-26 period, bond debt service would be paid from a combination of cash reserved from the prior year, the use of other funds, and RPTTF.

Due to cash flow and the principal payments, the Successor Agency commonly needs to use cash reserved from the prior ROPS B period for principal and interest due during the ROPS A period. In this case, the Successor Agency reserved $1,317,500 in 24-25B for the 25-26A period. The reserve for this purpose is funded on the ROPS separately (see Line 21) each year for the subsequent year’s bond payments during the A period.

The Successor Agency has also pledged up to $1,065,000 of the Agency’s sales and use tax allocation to pay bond debt service.

The remaining $272,394 of bond debt service due in 2025-26 would be paid from RPTTF received from the County Auditor-Controller.

Conclusion:

Staff recommends that the Successor Agency approve the resolution establishing the ROPS 2025-26, approving the expenditure of reserve funds from the ROPS 24-25B period to be spent in the ROPS 25-26A period, and approving the administrative budget for FY 2025-26.
