Council’s intention to make such levy and collection, and setting June 9, 2026, as the date for the public hearing on objections thereto.

The Paramount/Mines Landscape Maintenance Assessment District was formed on August 5, 2002, pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15, of the California Streets and Highways Code. Under the 1972 Act, the Assessment District is authorized to fund, service, and/or maintain the following improvements within the district boundaries:
• Installation and planting of landscaping;
• Installation of curbs, gutters, walls, sidewalks, or paving, or water, irrigation, drainage, or electrical facilities; and
• Installation of park or recreational improvements, including land preparation, sod, landscaping, irrigation systems, sidewalks, and drainage.

The holding of a duly noticed public hearing is required to levy the proposed assessment during FY 2026-27 and to fund public improvements, maintenance, and servicing described in the Engineer’s Report. At the hearing, all interested persons are afforded the opportunity to submit written protests and objections to the levy and collection of the proposed assessment. If, upon close of the hearing, written protests filed and not withdrawn do not represent property owners owning more than 50% of the area of the assessable lands within the district, the City Council may proceed with the levying of the assessment.

Following the action, the City Council is asked to confirm the diagram and assessment; and order the maintenance, servicing and construction of public improvements set forth in the Engineer’s Report. Adoption of the two (2) proposed resolutions constitutes the levy of the assessments set forth in the Engineer’s Report for FY 2026-27. The previous year’s rate was $738.26 per parcel. The Engineer’s Report proposes increasing the assessment to $763.34 per parcel, a 3.397% increase to reflect the annual increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and will cover increased utility costs.

Assessments will be levied by the County of Los Angeles, and funds so collected, after deduction of any compensation due to the County of Los Angeles for collection, will be paid to the District Treasurer (Director of Administrative Services, Finance, or City Treasurer).

Conclusion:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed resolutions to authorize the levy of assessments for FY 2026-27, as outlined in the Engineer’s Report. This action will enable the continued maintenance and improvement of public infrastructure within the Paramount/Mines Landscape Maintenance Assessment District and ensure funding is in place to meet rising utility and service costs.

A. INTRODUCTION
The City of Pico Rivera ("City") annually levies and collects special assessments in order to continue the maintenance and operation of landscaping within the Assessment District designated and known as:

CITY OF PICO RIVERA

PARAMOUNT MINES LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE DISTRICT
Pursuant to the order of the City Council of the City of Pico Rivera, this Report is prepared in compliance with the requirements of Article 4, Chapter 1, Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972, Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code of the State of California ( “1972 Act”).

This Engineer's Report (“Report”) provides an annual update of the Paramount Mines Landscape Maintenance District (“District”) including the proposed expenses and revenues, any substantial change in the improvements or the District, and the proposed assessments to be levied on the Los Angeles County (“County”) tax roll for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. The annual assessments to be levied on parcels within the District are based on a calculation of the proportional special benefits parcels receive from the improvements and services provided, utilizing an established method of apportionment. The revenues generated by the annual assessments partially fund the costs associated with the installation and maintenance of landscaping systems constructed as part of the development of Tracts No. 52915 and 53042 in the City of Pico Rivera.

The word “parcel”, for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) by the Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office. The Los Angeles County Auditor/Controller uses these APN’s and specific Fund Numbers, to identify on the tax roll, properties assessed for special district benefit assessments.

2026/2027 Paramount Mines Landscape Maintenance District Page 4 of 8 III. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT
A. GENERAL
The net amount to be assessed upon lands within the District in accordance with this Report is apportioned by a formula and method which fairly distributes the net amount to be assessed among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the improvements, namely the maintenance and servicing of landscaping improvements and facilities within the boundaries of the District. The maintenance and servicing of public landscaping provides a specific enhancement of the properties within the District which is received by each and every lot or parcel therein.

B. BENEFIT ANALYSIS
The District’s improvements, the associated costs and proposed assessments described in this Report, have been identified and allocated based on a benefit calculation that proportionally allocates the net cost to the benefiting properties pursuant to the provisions of Article XIIID and the 1972 Act.

The improvements provided by the District have been identified as necessary, required and/or desired for the orderly development of the properties within the District to their full potential, consistent with applicable portions of the City General Plan. The construction and installation of the improvements have been installed as a necessary part of property development within the District or would be required for the future development properties within the District if the improvements were not pre-existing. Therefore, any public access or use of these improvements by others is incidental and there is no measurable general benefit to properties outside the District or to the public at large.

Special Benefits
The improvements for which properties are assessed directly enhance the desirability, security, environment and surroundings of those properties and the ongoing operation, servicing and maintenance of the improvements are a distinct and special benefit to the properties within the District. The amount to be assessed against each parcel within the District represents only the parcel’s proportionate special benefit from the improvements.

Special Benefits of Street and Park Landscaping
The primary benefits of landscape improvements within street rights of way and parks are related to the improved quality of life these improvements provide to a community. The landscaping of street rights of way and park benefits parcels within the District by improving the physical and visual environment within the District and makes the properties therein more 2026/2027 Paramount Mines Landscape Maintenance District Page 5 of 8 desirable. Studies have continually shown that property values and the marketability of those properties in a community are increased when public infrastructures including landscaped improvements are in place and the improvements are clean and well-maintained. Facilities that are unsafe, in disrepair or destroyed by the elements or vandalism decrease the enhancement of surrounding properties.

Clearly well-maintained medians and parkways (street landscaping) and wellmaintained parks provide a particular and distinct special benefit to parcels within the District. Having properly maintained landscaping within the District means that the owners and visitors of the assessed parcels may enjoy the benefits of such improvements while avoiding the expense of privately installing and maintaining similar improvements. The proper maintenance of street landscaping and parks improves the aesthetics appeal of surrounding properties by reducing pollution and noise and providing a visual enhancement of the area that may otherwise be barren or weed infested.

These improvements directly reflect on properties within the District and enhance the environment enjoyed by owners, businesses, residents, tenants and their families. Each parcel within the District is located within reasonable proximity to the District’s landscape improvements, and therefore benefit from the on-going maintenance of those improvements that directly enhances the quality of life throughout the City.

The special benefits associated with street landscaping and park improvements are specifically:
 Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the improvements.
 Improved aesthetic appeal of properties providing a positive representation of the area.
 Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space, parks and landscaping.  Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, dust and debris control, and fire prevention.
 Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties.
 Enhanced quality of life and recreational opportunities through well maintained recreational facilities.
2026/2027 Paramount Mines Landscape Maintenance District Page 6 of 8  Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities.
 Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation and attenuating noise.

C. ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY
The net amount to be assessed upon specific parcels within the District in accordance with this report is apportioned by a formula and method which fairly distributes the amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the benefits to be received by each lot or parcel from the improvements, namely the maintenance and servicing of landscaping within such District. The maintenance and servicing of landscaping in the District provides a special benefit which is received by each and every lot or parcel (with the exception of Lot 11 of Tract 52915 which is a park) tending to provide specific enhancement of the properties within the District.

D. ASSESSMENT RANGE FORMULA
Limitation on Increase of Annual Assessments
The City Council intends to use as a guide, for the purpose of determining annual increases in assessments, the Consumer Price Index from March to March for all Urban Consumers for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area (“CPI”), as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics; provided, however, that any such annual increase in assessments shall not exceed ten percent (10%).

For Fiscal Year 2026/2027, the proposed rates include a 3.397% CPI adjustment.

The Fiscal Year 2026/2027 maximum rate has increased to $939.42 and the Fiscal Year 2026/2027 applied rate has increased to $763.34. Fiscal Year 2014/2015 was the first time the applied rate had increased since Fiscal Year 2003/2004.

E. ANNUAL ADMINISTRATIVE ASSESSMENT
A proposed maximum annual assessment shall be levied on each parcel of land and subdivision of land within the District to pay for the necessary costs and expenses incurred, and not otherwise reimbursed, resulting from the administration and collection of assessments and/or other related funds. This maximum assessment hereinafter set forth is authorized pursuant to the provisions of Section 10204, and said maximum annual assessment shall not exceed 5% per individual assessment, and said sum shall only be collected to the extent monies are not available for these services from any other source. 2026/2027 Paramount Mines Landscape Maintenance District Page 7 of 8 IV.

To: Mayor and City Council
From: City Manager
Meeting Date: June 9, 2026
Subject: PUBLIC HEARING - STATUS UPDATE ON JOB
VACANCIES IN COMPLIANCE WITH ASSEMBLY BILL 2561
– LOCAL PUBLIC EMPLOYEES
Recommendation:

1. Conduct a public hearing and receive and file the Status Update on Job Vacancies report.

Strategic Priority:
1 - Fiscal & Organizational Sustainability - Create a City government built to adapt to change.

Strategy:

1.5 Develop, retain, and acquire an effective team within the city.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund.

Background:

On September 22, 2024, the State Legislature passed, and Governor Gavin Newsom signed into Law, Assembly Bill (AB) 2561, amending the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act.

Effective January 1, 2025, this legislation establishes a new requirement for public agencies to publicly disclose and address the status of their vacant positions. As a basis for the new requirements, the California Legislature determined that vacancies are widespread and can be a significant problem in the public sector. According to AB 2561, vacancies require employees to take on heavier workloads, resulting in burnout, low morale and increased turnover, which could negatively impact the delivery of public service.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JUNE 9, 2026
PUBLIC HEARING AND STATUS UPDATES ON JOB VACANCIES – AB 2561

COMPLIANCE

Page 2 of 3 ends

AB 2561 imposed three (3) requirements on local agencies:

1. At least once per fiscal year, and before the final budget is adopted, an agency’s governing board must hold a public hearing and receive the agency’s report on the status of vacancies, recruitment and retention efforts;

2. During the hearing, the agency must identify any necessary changes to policies, procedures, and recruitment activities that may lead to hiring obstacles; and

3. The agency must allow a bargaining unit representative of a recognized employee organization to make a presentation at the hearing at which the public agency presents the status of vacancies, recruitment and retention efforts for positions within that bargaining unit.

Discussion:

If the number of job vacancies within a single bargaining unit meets or exceeds 20% of the total number of authorized full-time positions, the public agency shall, upon request of the recognized employee organization, include all the following information during the public hearing:

1. The total number of job vacancies within the bargaining unit;

2. The total number of applicants for vacant positions within the bargaining unit;

3. The average number of days to complete the hiring process from when a position is posted; and

4. Opportunities to improve compensation and other working conditions.

In response to AB 2561, the City conducted a review of the total staffing and vacancy rates using the fiscal year (FY) 2025-26 Budget and using staffing levels as of May 1, 2026. For FY 2025-26, the City Council authorized 162 full-time positions citywide, with only the City Manager position being non-represented.

The current staff vacancy rate in the City does not exceed the twenty percent (20%) threshold for any of its full-time bargaining units:

Bargaining Unit Authorized

The vacancies in the Full-Time Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 721 are one (1) Account Clerk II, one (1) Accountant III, one (1) Parking Enforcement Officer, (1) Counter Services Representative, two (2) Water Systems Operators II and III, one (1) Water Treatment Operator II and three (3) Maintenance Workers II.

The vacancies in the Mid Managers, Professionals and Confidential Employees’ Association (CEA) are one (1) Coordinator, one (1) Analyst, one (1) Supervisor and one (1) Assistant City Engineer.

Based on the foregoing, there are no necessary changes to policies, procedures and recruitment activities. The City continues to enhance its recruitment efforts to attract and retain a diverse and qualified workforce. This includes updating job descriptions to ensure they feature accurate titles and responsibilities, helping to attract candidates whose skills and qualifications align more closely with the role. These updates also ensure that postings reflect current organizational needs, ultimately improving the quality of applicants.

In addition, we are actively exploring innovative approaches to the interview process. This includes selecting diverse and qualified interview panelists, conducting virtual interviews to increase accessibility and efficiency, and implementing strategies that enhance the overall candidate experience.

Conclusion:

Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing and receive and file this report.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JUNE 9, 2026
GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION - NOVEMBER 3, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

Fiscal Impact:

The estimated cost of this General Municipal Election is $150,000. The proposed fiscal year (FY) 2026-27 Budget will have sufficient budget in the City Clerk’s budget (Account No. 100.12.1200-52500, Election Costs) for all election related costs.

Discussion:

On Tuesday, November 3, 2026, a General Municipal Election is scheduled to be held for two (2) seats on the Pico Rivera City Council. The seats are currently held by Mayor Gustavo V. Camacho and Councilmember John R. Garcia. Those elected will serve a four (4) year term expiring in November 2030.

State law suggests Monday, July 6, 2026 as the last day on which to approve resolutions related to the November 3, 2026 election. Presented for City Council review and approval are a series of resolutions which will have the effect of calling the election, requesting election related services with the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder County Clerk Elections Division, setting forth regulations for candidates’ statements, and providing a procedure for determining by lot a tie among candidates at the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election pursuant to § 15651 of the Elections Code.

Pursuant to the Federal Voting Rights Act, Los Angeles County is required to make voting material available in English, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Tagalog and Vietnamese. Materials in each of these required languages will be made available upon request. In addition, the sample ballot will contain instruction on how voting information in the required languages can be obtained via telephone at no cost to the voter. The demographics of Pico Rivera also require that the Voter’s Pamphlet be translated and printed in Spanish as well as English.

If a candidate chooses to have a Candidate’s Statement in the sample ballot, the candidate will be required to pay for printing of the statement in both English and Spanish.

There will be a separate charge for the translation and printing.

Conclusion:

With approval of the items presented with this agenda report, Election Code requirements will be satisfied. Pursuant to the schedule of election events prepared by the County Elections Department, the candidate filing period will open Monday, July 13, 2026, and will close Friday, August 7, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. If an incumbent fails to file by Friday, August 7, 2026, the filing period will be extended to Wednesday, August 12, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.

The Secretary of State’s office will conduct the randomized alphabet drawing on Thursday, August 13, 2026, to determine the order of names on the City’s ballot.

DETERMINING BY LOT A TIE AMONG CANDIDATES AT THE
NOVEMBER 3, 2026 GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 15651 AND
RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 7350
WHEREAS, § 15651 of the Elections Code of the State of California authorizes the City Council to determine the means and manner in which a tie vote is to be resolved in the event that two or more persons receive an equal and the highest number of votes (“tie votes”) for an office to be voted upon in a city; WHEREAS, § 15651 of the Elections Code of the State of California provides that the tie vote shall be resolved in one of the following ways:
a) By Lot: The City Clerk, serving as the Elections Official pursuant to Elections Code § 320, or his or her designee, shall summon the candidates who have received the tie votes, whether upon the canvass of the returns or upon recount by a court, to appear before the City Council at a time to be designated by the City Council. The City Clerk shall at that time and place resolve the tie votes by lot (defined below).
b) By Special Election: The legislative body may resolve a tie vote by the conduct of a special runoff election involving those candidates who receive an equal number of votes. A special runoff election shall be held only if the legislative body adopts provisions of § 15651 (b) of the Elections Code prior to the conduct of the election resulting in the tie vote. All future elections conducted by that body shall be resolved likewise, unless the legislative body later repeals the order for the conduct of a special runoff election.

WHEREAS, the City Council desires that any tie vote resulting from the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election be resolved by lot.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Pico Rivera as follows:

SECTION 1. That pursuant to § 15651 of the Elections Code of the State of California, if any two or more persons receive an equal and the highest number of votes for an office to be voted for within the City, the tie votes shall be resolved by lot. “By lot” means, by deciding the matter through implementing a method of chance, in order to afford each candidate receiving tie votes a fair opportunity at election.

SECTION 2. That the City Council has the authority to resolve tie votes by lot, by implementing various methods of chance, including, but not limited to, a coin toss, 7e Back to Agenda Outline

generation of random number, or drawing of names. In the interest of maintaining decorum, fairness and transparency, the method implemented for resolving tie votes in the November 3, 2026 General Municipal Election shall be the drawing of names, in accordance with the following procedure:

The City Clerk shall type the name of each candidate who has tied for office on a separate, but identical piece of paper, which shall be folded and deposited into a container and mixed so that the pieces of paper become indistinguishable. The City Clerk, or his or her designee, shall then draw from the container as many pieces of paper as there are seats on the City Council to be filled by the candidates who have tied. The candidate(s) whose name(s) appear(s) upon the drawn piece(s) of paper shall be deemed elected.

SECTION 3. That this resolution shall apply only to the election to be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, and shall be repealed upon the City Council’s declaration of election results.

SECTION 4. That Resolution No. 7350 calling for a special runoff election is repealed.

SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall attest to the passage of this resolution and it shall thereupon be in full force and effect.

Recommendation:

1. Approve a resolution adopting the fiscal year 2026-27 GANN appropriations Limit.

Strategic Priority:
1 - Fiscal & Organizational Sustainability - Create a City government built to adapt to change.

Strategy:

1.1 Build a more transparent and sustainable fiscal system to improve trust and efficiency.

Fiscal Impact:

There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund.

Discussion:

Under Article XIIIB of the California Constitution (the GANN Spending Limitation Initiative), California governmental agencies are restricted in the number of annual appropriations from the proceeds of taxes. Every fiscal year, the City may adjust its appropriations limit by the percentage change in California per capita personal income from the preceding year and by the annual percentage change in the City of Pico Rivera (City) population.

For fiscal year (FY) 2026-27, the City calculates the appropriations limit based on a 4.95% increase in California per capita income and a 0.41% decrease in population from January 1, 2025, to January 1, 2026.

Subject: AWARD OF CONTRACT TO WEST COAST ARBORISTS, INC.

FOR TREE MAINTENANCE SERVICES
Recommendation:

1. Approve a three (3) year contract with a two (2), one-year renewal options with West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA), for tree maintenance services in a not-toexceed amount of $1,690,900; and

2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the contract in a form approved by the City Attorney.

Strategic Priority:
3 - Infrastructure - Plan, fund, build, and maintain reliable and cost-effective infrastructure that contributes to enhancing quality of life.

Strategy:

3.4 Facilitate a high-level of maintenance of City infrastructure to reduce increased costs from prolonged deferral.

Fiscal Impact:

Sufficient funding has been included in the proposed fiscal year (FY) 2026-27 Budget within the Lighting and Landscaping Assessment District Fund (Account No. 230.40.4030-54500) to cover the annual cost for tree trimming services for the three (3) year term of agreement, and any future extensions. No additional appropriations are required at this time.

Background:

Based on a 2020 tree inventory, the City has approximately 12,500 street and parkway trees, comprising its urban forestry, with an estimated value of $36,500,000. Trees provide many benefits, including reduced pollution, energy conservation, economic 9 Back to Agenda Outline

stability, beautification, and increased property values.

The Public Works Department oversees the City’s overall tree maintenance operations with the support of a professional contractor for routine tree trimming services, service request trimming, tree removal and replacement, and emergency response. Currently, trees are trimmed on a scheduled, grid-based cycle. Each tree in the City is trimmed at least once every three (3) years.

Discussion:

WCA was awarded a contract on August 10, 2021, for tree maintenance services, and the contract is set to expire on August 10, 2026. Staff researched a new request for proposal process and researched current regional pricing. During the process, it was discovered that the City of Rosemead had recently concluded a procurement process for the same services. In April 2025, the City of Rosemead issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for citywide tree maintenance services (Enclosure 3). A total of eight (8) proposals were received, and upon evaluation of the proposals, WCA was selected as the contractor. The City of Rosemead City Council awarded WCA a maintenance services agreement on December 9, 2025 (Enclosure 4). Staff reviewed the pricing and services obtained by the City of Rosemead and found it comparable to the City’s current contract.

In addition, staff found the cost for some of the services to be less expensive than our current rates. To obtain the best value for the City and eliminate the risk of higher bids, staff investigated using the City of Rosemead’s procurement process. The Pico Rivera Municipal Code Section 3.20.030(c)(d) permits the purchase to be executed by, through, or in collaboration with another public agency that conducts the same procurement in accordance with applicable state or local regulations governing such purchases.

Staff communicated with WCA representatives regarding the potential extension of the City of Rosemead’s pricing structure to the City. WCA representatives demonstrated a willingness to collaborate and extend the existing pricing for the services desired by the City. These services primarily include a three-year grid-based trimming cycle, specialty maintenance and service requests, emergency response, arborist assessment services, tree removals and replacements, among others (Enclosure 2).

In addition to extending the City of Rosemead’s pricing to the City, WCA also proposed a new tree inventory assessment at no cost to the City, which typically costs approximately $92,000 for a similar size city. Since the most recent tree inventory, new trees have been planted throughout the City as part of recent tree-planting initiatives and median-island projects. The tree inventory assessment will also include trees in parks that were not previously documented. The assessment process involves visiting each tree site and tagging each tree using a Geographic Information System (GIS). Maintaining an up-todate tree inventory is an invaluable tool that reduces liability, enhances service delivery, strengthens budget requests, and facilitates long-term maintenance planning, thereby reducing the need for emergency responses.

The chart below presents the projected costs of the essential service provided by WCA, specifically grid-based tree trimming, over the three-year agreement period. The annual price varies year-to-year since the total number of trees varies from each grid.

Lastly, the last column highlights the price differential in comparison to the City’s existing contract:

Year of Service Total Annual Grid Tree Trimming
Cost
Cost difference compared to
current rates
Year 1 $405,160 +0.72%
Year 2 $390,414 +1.44%
Year 3 $415,274 +0.75%
Grid Tree Trimming
Grand Total
$1,210,848
In conjunction with grid-based tree trimming services, which include tree trimming in City parks, the City allocates contingency funds designated for use at the City's discretion for special tree trimming requests, tree removals, tree replacements, and emergency response services. Based on historical expenditure data, the recommended allocation is $160,000 for other WCA services, excluding grid-based tree trimming. The chart below presents the total projected annual expenditure and the grand total for all of WCA services.

Year of Service WCA Annual Amount
Year 1 $565,160
Year 2 $550,414
Year 3 $575,326
Grand Total for 3-years $1,690,900
The services and work rendered by WCA have consistently demonstrated a high standard of quality. WCA has served as a valuable contractor to the City, providing emergency support services, assisting with Capital Improvement Projects, and tailoring its services to the specific needs of the City of Pico Rivera. Ensuring the continuity of tree maintenance services enhances tree care and promotes uniformity in the City’s urban forestry management. Staff have cultivated a strong professional relationship with WCA, and WCA has consistently met the needs of Pico Rivera.

Conclusion:

Staff recommend awarding a three (3) year contract with a two (2) one-year renewal option with West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA), for tree maintenance services in a not-to- CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JUNE 9, 2026

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, Contractor will maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below.

Contractor will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth here, Contractor agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so.

Contractor acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to City in excess of the limits and coverage required in this agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, will be available to City.

Contractor shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:

Commercial General Liability Insurance: Contractor shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $2,000,000 per occurrence, $4,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended.

Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.

Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 including symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no event to be less that $1,000,000 combined single limit per accident. If Contractor owns no vehicles, this requirement may be satisfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability policy described above. If Contractor or Contractor employees will use personal autos in any way on this project, Contractor shall provide evidence of personal auto liability coverage for each such person.

Workers Compensation on a state-approved policy form providing statutory benefits as required by law with employer’s liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or disease.

Contractor shall submit to Agency, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of Agency, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers.

Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary) if used to meet limit requirements, shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages. Contractor shall obtain and maintain an umbrella or excess liability insurance policy with limits that will provide bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability coverage at least as broad as the primary coverages set forth above, including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability. Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions:
• A drop down feature requiring the policy to respond if any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectible in whole or in part for any Attachment B - Page 15 of 19
reason;
• Pay on behalf of wording as opposed to reimbursement; • Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies; and • Policies shall “follow form” to the underlying primary policies. • Insureds under primary policies shall also be insureds under the umbrella or excess policies.

Professional Liability or Errors and Omissions Insurance as appropriate shall be written on a policy form coverage specifically designed to protect against acts, errors or omissions of the Contractor and “Covered Professional Services” as designated in the policy must specifically include work performed under this agreement. The policy limit shall be no less than $1,000,000 per claim and in the aggregate. The policy must “pay on behalf of” the insured and must include a provision establishing the insurer’s duty to defend. The policy retroactive date shall be on or before the effective date of this agreement.

Requirements not limiting: Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. 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 all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the Agency requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the Agency.

Acceptable insurers: All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the Agency’s Risk Manager.

General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Contractor.

Contractor and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contractor:

1. Contractor agrees to have its insurer endorse the third-party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010. Contractor also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.

2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contractor, or Contractor’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contractor agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.

Attachment B - Page 16 of 19

3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies.

Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.

4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing.

5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor.

6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contractor shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent.

7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contractor ‘s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due Contractor, at City option.

8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation of coverage. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates 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 certificate.

9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contractor or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, noncontributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City.

10.Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor 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.

Attachment B - Page 17 of 19
Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.

11.Contractor agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contractor’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or selfinsured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contractor, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.

12.The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.

13.For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.

14.Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.

15.Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.

16.Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Contractor’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages.

17.The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contractor under this agreement. Contractor expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials and agents.

Attachment B - Page 18 of 19

18.Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy.
