STRATEGIC PLAN STATEMENT:
This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Goal to achieve:
Implementation of Housing Element Strategies, Objective Number 3.10. This agenda item is related to a Zoning Code Amendment which will result in the creation of opportunities for the development of more housing in the City, including a mix of housing at various price points.
BACKGROUND:
On February 6, 2024, City Council adopted General Plan Amendment No. GPA 2023-01 and Zone Change No. ZCA 2023-01. This action expanded the TOD land use designation and TOD zone by approximately 14.5 acres as shown below:

ZCA No. 2024-01
When City Council approved GPA 2023-01 and conducted first reading of Ordinance O-2024-01 related to ZCA 2023-01 on February 6, 2024, they gave additional direction to Staff related to the item. As part of their action, City Council directed staff to amend PMC Chapter 23.111 as it relates to amortization and the treatment of existing uses within the TOD Zone, including the expanded TOD Zone. City Council direction included the intent that existing uses be entitled to continue in accordance with PMC Chapter 23.84 (Nonconforming Uses and Buildings) and retaining the secondary use rights set forth in PMC Chapter 23.111.060(c). Staff was directed to work with the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance amending Chapter 23.111 to clarify that intent, and to return at the earliest opportunity.
In 2017, the Old Town Placentia Revitalization Plan and Old Town (OT) Zoning standards were adopted. Most of what is now zoned OT used to be zoned Santa Fe -Commercial (SF -C). As part of ZCA 2024-01, Staff proposes omitting the SF -C language throughout the Municipal Code.
DISCUSSION:
ZCA 2024-01 has been prepared to address the February 6, 2024 City Council direction related to the TOD Zone and address Code consistency issues unrelated to the TOD Zone:
TOD Zone
ZCA 2024-01 would amend the Placentia Municipal Code (PMC) Chapter 23.111 as it relates to amortization of uses and preservation of property rights related to legal non -conforming uses. On February 6, 2024, City Council directed Staff to amend PMC Chapter 23.111 as it relates to amortization and the treatment of existing uses within the TOD Zone, including the expanded TOD Zone. City Council direction included the intent that uses existing under the previous zoning be entitled to continue in accordance with PMC Chapter 23.84 (Nonconforming Uses and Buildings).
City Council direction also included the intent that property owners retain the secondary use rights set forth in PMC Chapter 23.111.060(c). As directed, Staff has prepared a Zoning Code Amendment to clarify that intent (Attachment 1, Exhibit A).
SF -C Zone
Secondly, Staff has initiated an amendment to the Placentia Municipal Code (PMC) to omit Chapter 23.37 titled "SF -C Santa Fe -Commercial District" and to make conforming amendments to the Placentia Municipal Code (PMC) Chapter 23.08, Chapter 23.82, Chapter 23.90, and Chapter 22.24 omitting references to the "SF -C Santa Fe -Commercial District". In 2017, the Old Town Placentia Revitalization Plan and Old Town (OT) Zoning standards were adopted. Most of what is now zoned OT used to be zoned Santa Fe -Commercial (SF -C). As part of ZCA 2024-01, Staff proposes omitting the SF -C language throughout the Municipal Code. No properties in the City of Placentia are now zoned SF -C, therefore Staff proposes omitting this from the City's list of Zones and omitting all references to the SF -C (Attachment 1, Exhibit B).
City Council Agenda
April 16, 2024
ZCA No. 2024-01
CEQA:
In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and State and local Environmental Guidelines, Staff and the City of Placentia Planning Commission recommend that City Council adopt a Common Sense Exemption pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines in that the proposed project (Zoning Code Amendment) will not result in changes to the existing physical environment, and the physical environment will not be modified as a result of its adoption. Upon City Council adoption of a finding of a Common Sense exemption, a Notice of Exemption will be filed.
Recommending Body Determination
On March 12, 2024, the Planning Commission conducted a Public Hearing regarding Zoning Code Amendment (ZCA) No. 2024-01 and recommended approval of the Staff recommended actions to City Council. It should also be noted that as of April 9, 2024, Staff has received one comment letter in support of the ZCA, attached.

AGENDA REPORT
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT FOR FUEL SALES BETWEEN THE PLACENTIA-YORBA LINDA
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF PLACENTIA
FISCAL
IMPACT: AVAILABLE BUDGET: $ 111,636 FY 2023-24 (103658-6345) SUMMARY:
The City's unleaded fuel tank was taken out of service in December 2023 due to a leak. Staff explored options to allow for continued fueling of the unleaded fleet, such as a commercial fuel card program and fueling at the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District (District) Education Center. Fueling at the District allows the City to benefit from bulk fuel pricing. The City will incur a 10 -cent admin fee per gallon to account for District staff time in administering the program for the City. Staff recommends the City Council approve the fuel sales agreement between the City and the District to allow the City to fuel its fleet at the District's fuel station. Separately, Staff is evaluating various options with respect to a long-term solution for fueling the City's fleet which could entail reconstructing the City's fuel island or continuing to fuel the City's fleet at the School District's facility or other retail fueling stations.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:
1. Approve the agreement between the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District and the City of Placentia for fuel sales; and
2. Authorize the City Administrator and/or his designee to execute all necessary documents, in a form approved by the City Attorney; and
3. Authorize the City Administrator to approve future contract term extensions as may be needed.

DISCUSSION:
The City's unleaded fuel tank was taken out of service in December 2023 due to a leak. Staff explored options to continue unleaded fueling of its fleet and one of those options is fueling at the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District (District) yard. The District has offered to allow the City to fuel its fleet at the District's yard and benefit from the District's bulk fuel pricing. The City will incur a 10 -cent admin surcharge per gallon, to cover costs associated with fuel management, programming codes, card systems and invoicing. Based upon the most recent month of fuel purchases, the City has been paying an average of $4.59 per gallon for fuel. According to the District's FY 2023-24 fuel purchases to date, the average cost per gallon is $4.11 per gallon.
Based on these figures and including the 10 -cent admin surcharge, the average cost to the City would be $4.21 per gallon, which is an average savings of .38 cents per gallon.
The City utilizes an average of 5,500 gallons per month of unleaded fuel. Purchasing fuel from the District would save the City approximately $25,000 per year versus purchasing through retail fuel stations. The City currently has an account with SC Fuels to fuel the City's fleet at SC Fuels stations and other retail fuel stations, and there are no card fees, transaction fees or reporting fees. There is no time commitment and the City has the option to close the fuel card account at any time without penalty. Staff recommends the City Council enter into an agreement with the District to allow the City to purchase fuel from the District while additional analysis is conducted to determine a long-term solution which could include reconstructing the City's fuel island or continuing to fuel the City's fleet at the District's yard or other retail fueling stations.
FISCAL IMPACT:
A total of $415,000 was budgeted for fleet fuel in the FY 2023-24 Operating Budget. As such, sufficient funds exist for the recommended actions.

SUMMARY:
The City's Operating Budget is reviewed and presented to the City Council quarterly for recommended amendments and to provide current information on the financial activities of the City. Additionally, these types of quarterly reports assist City departments in communicating their financial operations throughout the fiscal year including any program changes and significant impacts to their annual budgets, as well as ensuring spending and revenues received throughout the year closely align with the adopted budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following action:
1. Approve the Third Quarter Budget Report and adopt Resolution No. R-2024-24, amending the City's FY 2023-24 Budget.
STRATEGIC PLAN STATEMENT:
This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Goal to Ensure Long -Term Fiscal Sustainability, under Objective #1.6 Update the existing 10 -Year Financial Plan.
DISCUSSION:
At the June 6, 2023 City Council meeting, City Council approved the FY 2023-24 budget which included $86.4 million in expenditures supported by $84.9 million in revenues, with the difference supported by the use of one-time monies in various funds to address capital improvement projects. The General Fund's expenditures accounted for $52.3 million of those expenditures, with
1.f.
Mav 7e 2024
City Council Agenda
May 7, 2024
General Fund revenues adopted at $49.8 million. Subsequently, at the Mid -Year Budget review the City Council approved proposed adjustments to the General Fund budget bringing the total expenditures to $71.4 million, with $64.5 million in revenues, inclusive of carryover funding from FY 2022-23 approved in the first quarter.
Since the Mid -Year report, the City has received three additional months' sales tax allocations.
Through it's April allocation, sales tax is down $388,000, or 7.2% compared to April 2023 and Staff has learned of the closure or future closure of several sales tax producers within the City, further reducing the amount of sales tax expected this fiscal year. Staff is now projecting to receive $7.75 million in sales tax for FY 2023-24 compared to the current amended budget of $8.25 million.
Similarly to sales tax, Measure U is also projected to be lower than its $9.2 million budget, with the City now expecting $8.7 million, compared to $8.9 million last fiscal year. While managed in a separate fund, this reduction will negatively impact the transfer made to the General Fund from the Measure U fund per Policy 460 by $200,000.
For the third quarter of FY 2023-24 there are no proposed adjustments to the expense budget.
To mitigate against the further loss of revenue, the City Administrator gave direction to issue the annual Stop Spending Order, which went into effect March 21st requiring departments to cease all unnecessary spending (not contractually obligated, directly supported by revenue, or required for public safety) for the remainder of the fiscal year.
FY 2024/25 Budget
Budget preparation for the 2024-25 fiscal year is actively underway and the Proposed FY 2024/25 Budget is scheduled to be presented to the City Council on May 21, 2024. Projections for our largest revenue source, property tax, is projected to increase by approximately 9% from the Adopted FY 2023-24 budget. Offsetting this increase, however, is a continued decline in sales tax with our sales tax consultant, HdL, projecting $8.0 million for the upcoming fiscal year, down $767,000, or 9% from the Adopted FY 2023-24 budget.
On the expense side, costs continue to increase, several of which are outside the City's control.
Known increases for FY 2024-25 include increased insurance costs, an unfunded actuarial liability (UAL) payment required to CaIPERS resulting from their recent rate of returns being lower than the discount rate, countywide cost increases for the public safety 800 MHz radio system, and cost of living adjustments per negotiated Memoranda of Understanding. These are in addition to citywide increases in contract and software costs, gasoline, utilities and an overall higher cost of goods and services.
The graphic below illustrates the challenge the City is facing in preparing a balanced budget for the upcoming fiscal year(s). While the most recent CPI figure, 3.5% is lower than peak CPI figures experienced in 2022, it only represents the change consumer costs in one twelve-month period.
However when looking at the cumulative impact of each month's CPI increase on the second graph below, it illustrates how the overall cost of doing business has increased dramatically since 2021.

The amount of eligible funds has yet to be determined by the State. The last round of funding was in a total amount not to exceed $1,000,000.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:

STRATEGIC PLAN STATEMENT:
This item is consistent with the City Council approved 5 -Year Strategic Goal to achieve the following:
Implementation of Housing Element Strategies, Objective Number 3.10. This agenda item will specifically create opportunities for the development of more housing within the city, including a mix of housing at various price points. Also, this item will serve to enhance affordable housing production efforts in general as it will create potential funding mechanisms and other incentives to attract and promote affordable housing within the community.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Placentia is in the process of applying to the State to obtain a Prohousing designation.
Staff submitted an application last year, however the Housing Element was not certified by the State, and thus, the City did not qualify. With the State certification of the City's 6th Cycle Housing Element in February 2024, the City is now eligible to apply for the Prohousing designation. Staff would like to pursue a Prohousing designation due to its potential to open up a multitude of funding opportunities for the City and will assist the City in fulfilling is regional housing needs assessment (RHNA) requirements.
The State has determined that increasing the availability of housing is critical to bettering the quality of life for all Californians. The 2019-2020 Budget Act provided a spectrum of support, incentives, and accountability measures to meet California's housing goals, and provided for the establishment of the Prohousing Designation Program. The intent of this State program is to encourage jurisdictions to enact regulations, adopt policies, and establish local programs which go beyond current state laws and conventional standards and will accelerate the production of housing, both market rate and affordable at all density levels.
In return for adopting such pro -housing regulations, policies, and programs, local governments can receive an official designation and receive an advantage such as priority processing or funding points when applying for various funding programs. Current eligible funding programs that prioritize those with Prohousing designation include Affordable Housing & Sustainable Communities (AHSC), Infill Infrastructure Grant (IIG), and Transformative Climate Communities (TCC). However, the State is actively looking to add additional programs, particularly those that are only open to those with a Prohousing designation. A successful Prohousing designation could potentially lead to receipt of Prohousing Incentive Program funds. The amount of those funds has yet to be determined by the State.
DISCUSSION:
The attached Resolution (attachment 1) is a required component of the application. Upon the City Council's approval of the Resolution, City staff will submit the entire Prohousing Designation Program application to HCD for review and approval. City Staff has been working with SCAG staff in crafting this application to HCD.

City Council Agenda
May 7, 2024
If the City application for a Prohousing designation is awarded by HCD, staff will be able to apply for Prohousing Incentive (PIP) Program funds once the application window opens in August 2024.
Receipt of the funds is contingent upon receiving the Prohousing Designation from HCD. The application for PIP will require Staff to return to Council for approval to apply. Said funds may be used for the development, acquisition, rehabilitation, and preservation of multifamily, residential live -work, rental housing that is affordable to low- and moderate -income households, including necessary operating subsidies. The funds could be utilized to help finance an affordable housing development in Placentia, or for assisting those at risk of homelessness, including funding for navigation centers and emergency shelters, among other eligible expenses.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The approval of a Prohousing designation will qualify the City to apply for PIP grant funds, which can be utilized to generate affordable housing as well as increase scoring for the City and its developers on other HCD and housing grants. The available amount of the PIP grants has not been released by the State. The last round of PIP funds alone was up to $1,000,000 per jurisdiction and funds from the other grants vary by project.

SUMMARY:
The Federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has been in place since 1990 and the Code of Federal Regulations mandates public agencies to comply by maintaining an up-to-date ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan for the facilities it owns and maintains. The City prepared an ADA report for the City Hall in 2009.
On November 15, 2023, Staff issued a Request for Proposals ("RFP") for professional service to develop an ADA Self Evaluation and Transition Plan. The scope of services for this effort will include the compilation of a comprehensive ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan for City buildings, parks, and public right-of-way, including parking lots, street intersections, and sidewalks. The Self Evaluation will evaluate the City's services, practices, and policies. The Transition Plan will evaluate the physical barriers at all City -owned facilities and public right-of- way and provide the basis for prioritizing, budgeting, implementing, and removing identified barriers. A comprehensive City ADA Transition Plan will ensure that City facilities are accessible to all members of the public.
Staff received five (5) proposals for this project and after a thorough review, are recommending Disability Access Consultants (DAC), based upon their qualifications, experience, and technical expertise. DAC has assisted business and public entities in compliance with local, state and federal laws and regulations since 1998.

DAC will be performing field investigations within the City's right-of-way and at City facilities and parks in order to identify obstacles limiting accessibility, describe methods to improve accessibility and recommend a schedule for achieving ADA compliance. In addition, the Self Evaluation will evaluate the City's services, practices, and policies. The Transition Plan component will evaluate physical barriers at all City -owned facilities and public right-of-way. Ultimately, the plan will
City Council Agenda
May 7, 2024
provide recommendations for removing identified barriers and complying with accessibility requirements as mandated by the ADA and State of California Access codes.
DAC has prepared numerous Self Evaluations and Transition Plans throughout California and is well versed in current ADA regulations. In addition, DAC is committing experienced staff to the project which have prepared similar plans for other cities in Southern California. DAC will be engaged with the City throughout the process to ensure that City input is considered in all aspects of the plan and how it is set up for implementation. Lastly, DAC has also committed to project deliverables within a 12 -month time frame.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total cost for the professional services amounts to $174,790. A total of $150,000 was budgeted in the FY 2023-24 Capital Improvement Program for this project. Staff is recommending an additional $24,790 be transferred from the Public Works Operating Budget to cover the remainder of the cost. As such, sufficient funds exist for the recommended actions.

6.23. Waiver. The delay or failure of either party at any time to require performance or compliance by the other of any of its obligations or agreements shall in no way be deemed a waiver of those rights to require such performance or compliance. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. The waiver of any right or remedy in respect to any occurrence or event shall not be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy in respect to any other occurrence or event, nor shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable in any circumstance, such determination shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or of the offending provision in any other circumstance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the value of this Agreement, based upon the substantial benefit of the bargain for any party, is materially impaired, which determination made by the presiding court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction shall be binding, then both parties agree to substitute such provision(s) through good faith negotiations.

SECTION I - COVERAGES
COVERAGE A — BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY
DAMAGE LIABILITY
1. Insuring Agreement
a. We will pay those sums that the insured
becomes legally obligated to pay as damages
because of "bodily injury" or "property damage"
to which this insurance applies. We will have
the right and duty to defend the insured against
any "suit" seeking those damages. However,
we will have no duty to defend the insured
against any "suit" seeking damages for "bodily
injury" or "property damage" to which this
insurance does not apply. We may, at our
discretion, investigate any "occurrence" and
settle any claim or "suit" that may result. But:
(1) The amount we will pay for damages is
limited as described in Section III — Limits
Of Insurance; and
(2) Our right and duty to defend ends when we
have used up the applicable limit of
insurance in the payment of judgments or
settlements under Coverages A or B or
medical expenses under Coverage C.
No other obligation or liability to pay sums or
perform acts or services is covered unless
explicitly provided for under Supplementary
Payments — Coverages A and B.
b. This insurance applies to "bodily injury" and
"property damage" only if:
(1) The "bodily injury" or "property damage" is
caused by an "occurrence" that takes place
in the "coverage territory";
(2) The "bodily injury" or "property damage"
occurs during the policy period; and
Prior to the policy period, no insured listed
under Paragraph 1. of Section II — Who Is
An Insured and no "employee" authorized
by you to give or receive notice of an
"occurrence" or claim, knew that the "bodily
injury" or "property damage" had occurred,
in whole or in part. If such a listed insured
or authorized "employee" knew, prior to the
policy period, that the "bodily injury" or
"property damage" occurred, then any
continuation, change or resumption of such
"bodily injury" or "property damage" during
or after the policy period will be deemed to
have been known prior to the policy period.
c. "Bodily injury" or "property damage" which
occurs during the policy period and was not,
prior to the policy period, known to have
occurred by any insured listed under
Paragraph 1. of Section II — Who Is An Insured
or any "employee" authorized by you to give or
receive notice of an "occurrence" or claim,
includes any continuation, change or
resumption of that "bodily injury" or "property
damage" after the end of the policy period,
d. "Bodily injury" or "property damage" will be
deemed to have been known to have occurred
at the earliest time when any insured listed
under Paragraph 1. of Section II — Who Is An
Insured or any "employee" authorized by you to
give or receive notice of an "occurrence" or
claim:
(1) Reports all, or any part, of the "bodily injury"
or "property damage" to us or any other
insurer;
(2) Receives a written or verbal demand or
claim for damages because of the "bodily
injury" or "property damage"; or
Becomes aware by any other means that
"bodily injury" or "property damage" has
occurred or has begun to occur.
e. Damages because of "bodily injury" include
damages claimed by any person or
organization for care, loss of services or death
resulting at any time from the "bodily injury".

2. Exclusions
This insurance does not apply to:
a. Expected Or Intended Injury
"Bodily injury" or "property damage" expected
or intended from the standpoint of the insured.
This exclusion does not apply to "bodily injury"
resulting from the use of reasonable force to
protect persons or property.
b. Contractual Liability
"Bodily injury" or "property damage" for which
the insured is obligated to pay damages by
reason of the assumption of liability in a
contract or agreement. This exclusion does not
apply to liability for damages:
(1) That the insured would have in the absence
of the contract or agreement; or
(2) Assumed in a contract or agreement that is
an "insured contract", provided the "bodily
injury" or "property damage" occurs
subsequent to the execution of the contract
or agreement. Solely for the purposes of
liability assumed in an "insured contract",
reasonable attorneys' fees and necessary
litigation expenses incurred by or for a party
other than an insured are deemed to be
damages because of "bodily injury" or
"property damage", provided:
(a) Liability to such party for, or for the cost
of, that party's defense has also been
assumed in the same "insured contract";
and
(b) Such attorneys' fees and litigation
expenses are for defense of that party
against a civil or alternative dispute
resolution proceeding in which damages
to which this insurance applies are
alleged.
c. Liquor Liability
"Bodily injury" or "property damage" for which
any insured may be held liable by reason of:
(1) Causing or contributing to the intoxication of
any person;
(2) The furnishing of alcoholic beverages to a
person under the legal drinking age or
under the influence of alcohol; or
(3) Any statute, ordinance or regulation relating
to the sale, gift, distribution or use of
alcoholic beverages.
This exclusion applies even if the claims
against any insured allege negligence or other
wrongdoing in:
(a) The supervision, hiring, employment,
training or monitoring of others by that
insured; or
(b) Providing or failing to provide
transportation with respect to any
person that may be under the influence
of alcohol;
if the "occurrence" which caused the "bodily
injury" or "property damage", involved that
which is described in Paragraph (1), (2) or (3)
above.
However, this exclusion applies only if you are
in the business of manufacturing, distributing,
selling, serving or furnishing alcoholic
beverages. For the purposes of this exclusion,
permitting a person to bring alcoholic
beverages on your premises, for consumption
on your premises, whether or not a fee is
charged or a license is required for such
activity, is not by itself considered the business
of selling, serving or furnishing alcoholic
beverages.
d. Workers' Compensation And Similar Laws
Any obligation of the insured under a workers'
compensation, disability benefits or
unemployment compensation law or any
similar law.
e. Employer's Liability
"Bodily injury" to:
(1) An "employee" of the insured arising out of
and in the course of:
(a) Employment by the insured; or
(b) Performing duties related to the conduct
of the insured's business; or
(2) The spouse, child, parent, brother or sister
of that "employee" as a consequence of
Paragraph (1) above.
This exclusion applies whether the insured
may be liable as an employer or in any other
capacity and to any obligation to share
damages with or repay someone else who
must pay damages because of the injury.
This exclusion does not apply to liability
assumed by the insured under an "insured
contract".

operations by such insured, contractor
or subcontractor. However, this

"Bodily injury" or "property damage"
arising out of the escape of fuels,
lubricants or other operating fluids
which are needed to perform the
normal electrical, hydraulic or
mechanical functions necessary for
the operation of "mobile equipment"

or other operating fluids escape from
a vehicle part designed to hold, store
or receive them. This exception does
not apply if the "bodily injury" or
"property damage" arises out of the
intentional discharge, dispersal or
release of the fuels, lubricants or
other operating fluids, or if such
fuels, lubricants or other operating
fluids are brought on or to the
premises, site or location with the
intent that they be discharged,
dispersed or released as part of the
operations being performed by such
insured, contractor or subcontractor;
(ii) "Bodily injury" or "property damage"
sustained within a building and
caused by the release of gases,
fumes or vapors from materials
brought into that building in

neutralize, or in any way respond to, or
assess the effects of, "pollutants".

4. Other Insurance
If other valid and collectible insurance is available
to the insured for a loss we cover under
Coverages A or B of this Coverage Part, our
obligations are limited as follows:
a. Primary Insurance
This insurance is primary except when
Paragraph b. below applies. If this insurance is
primary, our obligations are not affected unless
any of the other insurance is also primary.
Then, we will share with all that other
insurance by the method described in
Paragraph c. below.
b. Excess Insurance
(1) This insurance is excess over:
(a) Any of the other insurance, whether
primary, excess, contingent or on any
other basis:
(i)
That is Fire, Extended Coverage,
Builder's Risk, Installation Risk or
similar coverage for "your work";
(ii) That is Fire insurance for premises
rented to you or temporarily
occupied by you with permission of
the owner;
(iii) That is insurance purchased by you
to cover your liability as a tenant for
"property damage" to premises
rented to you or temporarily
occupied by you with permission of
the owner; or
(iv) If the loss arises out of the
maintenance or use of aircraft,
"autos" or watercraft to the extent not
subject to Exclusion g. of Section I —
Coverage A — Bodily Injury And
Property Damage Liability.
(b) Any other primary insurance available to
you covering liability for damages
arising out of the premises or
operations, or the products and
completed operations, for which you
have been added as an additional
insured.
(2) When this insurance is excess, we will have
no duty under Coverages A or B to defend
the insured against any "suit" if any other
insurer has a duty to defend the insured
against that "suit". If no other insurer
defends, we will undertake to do so, but we
will be entitled to the insured's rights
against all those other insurers.
(3) When this insurance is excess over other
insurance, we will pay only our share of the
amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the
sum of:
(a) The total amount that all such other
insurance would pay for the loss in the
absence of this insurance; and
(b) The total of all deductible and self -
insured amounts under all that other
insurance.
(4) We will share the remaining loss, if any,
with any other insurance that is not
described in this Excess Insurance
provision and was not bought specifically to
apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance
shown in the Declarations of this Coverage
Part.
c. Method Of Sharing
If all of the other insurance permits contribution
by equal shares, we will follow this method
also. Under this approach each insurer
contributes equal amounts until it has paid its
applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss
remains, whichever comes first.
If any of the other insurance does not permit
contribution by equal shares, we will contribute
by limits. Under this method, each insurer's
share is based on the ratio of its applicable
limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of
insurance of all insurers.
5. Premium Audit
a. We will compute all premiums for this
Coverage Part in accordance with our rules
and rates.
b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as
advance premium is a deposit premium only.
At the close of each audit period we will
compute the earned premium for that period
and send notice to the first Named Insured.
The due date for audit and retrospective
premiums is the date shown as the due date
on the bill. If the sum of the advance and audit
premiums paid for the policy period is greater
than the earned premium, we will return the
excess to the first Named Insured.
c. The first Named Insured must keep records of
the information we need for premium
computation, and send us copies at such times
as we may request.

representations you made to us; and
c. We have issued this policy in reliance upon
your representations.
7. Separation Of Insureds
Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance, and
any rights or duties specifically assigned in this
Coverage Part to the first Named Insured, this
insurance applies:
a. As if each Named Insured were the only
Named Insured; and
b. Separately to each insured against whom claim
is made or "suit" is brought.
8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others
To Us
If the insured has rights to recover all or part of
any payment we have made under this Coverage
Part, those rights are transferred to us. The
insured must do nothing after loss to impair them.
At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or
transfer those rights to us and help us enforce
them.
9. When We Do Not Renew
If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we
will mail or deliver to the first Named Insured
shown in the Declarations written notice of the
nonrenewal not less than 30 days before the
expiration date.

clients' current status by preparing a study of all areas related to accessibility in different departments to document ongoing compliance.

DACTrak - Innovative Tools, Strategies and Best Practices Based on experience and knowledge of the accessibility field and best practices, DAC continues to develop innovative methodologies, easy to use ADA management tools, and proven, successful strategies for evaluating programs, services, activities, events, facilities, parks and public rights -of - way. DACTrak was developed by DAC for the purpose of easy and useful importing and management of the accessibility data collected in the field. DACTrak is interactive online software and is not an enhanced excel spread sheet. The ability to collect, compile, analyze and use report data in a practical format was one of the driving forces to develop the DACTrak intake and management software. Our DAC accessibility management software, DACTrak, provides our clients with a powerful management tool to document compliance, project costs, print custom reports and record progress. DACTrak is not an excel spreadsheet, but actual software that has been developed by our company to assist with the implementation and documentation of the City's ADA plan and provides photographs of as -is site conditions, which has proven to be valuable documentation. Findings and recommendations, in addition to other data are preloaded into the DACTrak software. As DAC owns and licenses the DACTrak software, we can make custom modifications for our clients.
The DACTrak program is accessed through a secure website that is compatible with all current major internet browsers. There is no software program file to download or install on the City's servers or computers in order to access and manage report data on DACTrak. All maintenance and updates to the DACTrak software are performed by DAC's in-house IT Team, therefore there is no burden on the City's IT staff to maintain or administer any software, programs or databases.
The data contained in the database shall be the property of the City when the ADA Transition Plan compilation is complete. DAC proposes that the City use DACTrak to facilitate ongoing monitoring and updating of the final transition plan. If the City chooses not to use the DACTrak online management software, DAC can provide reports to the City in a compatible format such as Excel and PDF.
Client References
DAC has performed hundreds of ADA self -evaluation and transition plans for cities, counties, towns, and park districts nationwide and has worked with approximately 250 public entities in the state of California.

Critical Items for Success
The most critical step in performing a successful assessment project is planning. Verifying facility information, organizing access and confirming contact information prior to the onsite surveys commencing is vital to the success of the project.
Another issue that is critical is the consistency and accuracy of the data gathered during the survey phase. In order to ensure this, DAC has developed DACTrak, which supports accurate and complete data collection. Using the DACTrak software in the field, our surveyors collect data and measurements in a specific order to ensure that elements are not missed. The data and photographs that are collected in the field are processed by our servers against all applicable accessibility codes, which provides our clients with consistent and accurate reports. Since the data collected in the field is automatically uploaded to our processing servers, reports are available to our clients within a short turnaround time, following our multi -step editing and quality control process.

2.6 Project Understanding and Approach
Task 2.0: Initial Investigation and Document Review
The document review by DAC will include previous plans, as -built drawings, accessibility standards and City regulatory policies related to accessibility. DAC will develop the process, procedure and forms needed to conduct the self -evaluation of the City's programs, activities and services for ADA compliance and compile the findings and recommendations into a City ADA Self -evaluation and Transition plan Executive Summary.
DAC will review the City's 2009 Self -Evaluation Reports, previous compliance efforts and reports, property condition assessment reports, as -built drawings, and any other relevant land development reports.
DAC will develop a master list of City programs, services, and activities; accessibility policies; disability customer service training; communication practices and any additional available information regarding program accessibility. DAC will review appropriate and existing City transition plans, master plans, reports, and programs, as well as meet with City staff to gain insight into the City's facilities and programs in order to identify issues, which may be discriminatory to people with disabilities.
The review will also include City policy and program accessibility, including eligibility requirements, participation requirements, facilities used, transportation, communication, grievance procedures and emergency procedures. DAC will review, analyze and make recommendations based on current or plans. DAC will conduct barrier assessment surveys to collect information on each program and activity. Based on the barrier assessment surveys and policy reviews, DAC will evaluate the access of existing programs and services and provide recommendations where deficiencies are identified.
DAC will provide the City with an Executive Summary report that will summarize the data and findings from the ADA self -evaluation and transition plan for City buildings, parks, parking, programs, communications, and open spaces.
DAC has provided training to hundreds of public entities and is also the selected consultant of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) to provide regular training sessions to their members. DAC has also recently provided training to the California Association of Joint Powers Authorities (CAJPA) regarding requirements for compliant websites. In addition to CJPIA members, DAC has provided customized individual training regarding ADA requirements for facilities, public right-of-way, policies, special events, grievances and other related Title II topics.
DAC will assist the City in designating an ADA coordinator and ADA liaisons for relevant City departments and provide training to City staff described in the City's RFP and additional areas.
DAC will also provide a one day training seminar to assist and further educate the ADA coordinator, ADA liaisons and select City staff in the following areas:
• Applicable government code, statutes and regulations; • Procedures and forms to be used for performing field investigations and inspections; • Procedures and forms to conduct Self -Evaluation

4. City Programs and Services
As part of Tasks 2.0 and 3.0, DAC will conduct an accessibility review of City programs, services, activities and policies to comply with a core requirement of an ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan.
a. In consultation with the City, DAC will identify which City programs and services are subject to the requirements of the ADA, including but not limited to, classes, workshops, meetings, and events. DAC will perform reviews of program policies, procedures, including but not limited to eligibility requirements, location(s) of services, methods of providing information and procedure for processing requests for accommodations. The information prepared from the programmatic assessments will be included in the self -evaluation and transition plan Executive Summary.
b. DAC will conduct programmatic barrier assessment surveys of City programs and services, as appropriate and available. The reviews will identify programmatic barriers in City programs and services that could limit accessibility or be considered potentially discriminatory.
c. Based on the programmatic barrier assessment surveys, DAC will provide the City with suggestions and recommendations as needed to ensure or enhance compliance in the City's DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 11
DAC
programs and services. The findings and recommendations will be included in the ADA Self -evaluation and Transition Plan report.
d. The ADA self -evaluation and transition plan report will identify issues that may limit physical or other access to individuals with disabilities to City Programs and Services. The report will include a feasible solution and cost estimate for eliminating each barrier if applicable.
Most programmatic changes to enhance compliance would have little to no cost associated. e. Although the ADA self -evaluation and transition plan project will focus on Title II, the report will also include a cursory review of the City's employment and recruitment practices related to accessibility and reasonable accommodations.
5. City Webpages
a. While the City did not expressly request this deliverable, DAC would recommend a compliance review of the City's website and web pages.
b. In consultation with the City, DAC will identify which City communications and webpages, including but not limited to, sign-up forms, registration forms and public facing website pages, are subject to the requirements of the ADA. DAC will provide the City with a programmatic review that will identify all communications items that are not compliant or are potentially discriminatory. The City's website will be reviewed for compliance with the standard required for Title II entities, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.
c. DAC will conduct barrier assessment surveys to review all City public communications and webpages, as appropriate. The surveys will identify accessibility barriers in City communications and webpages as well as potential language or procedures that could be considered discriminatory.
d. DAC will provide the City with a report that includes the findings are recommendations from the reviews of the City's communications and website review. The report will include a synopsis of the comprehensive website review which will be issued separately as a related and referenced report. The report will identify programmatic issues found in public communications and the City's public facing website that limit accessibility.
Detailed Approach for a Successful Pro'ect
In addition to the previous scope of work summary, tasks will also include, but are not limited to the following:
Orientation/Project Meeting and Clarification of Project Scope and Schedule DAC will conduct an initial project kickoff meeting with selected City staff to clarify roles and lines of communication, refine project goals, review the overall project schedule, schedule surveys of City facilities, recreational areas and public rights -of -way and identify key City personnel related to the project scope. To ensure an efficient commencement of the project in order to meet the deadline requirements, the kickoff meeting may be held via teleconference. More specific activities will include:
❑ Information that is needed will be clarified at the initial orientation meeting. The initial meeting will also clarify proposed activities and provide a collaborative framework to discuss project strategies. The project methodology is generally designed to develop a comprehensive plan without placing additional activities and impact upon City staff. ❑ Barbara Thorpe will be designated as the project manager and will also serve as policy and program analyst. She will be the DAC contact for the project and serve as the point of contact for the City. The designated team members that will coordinate the inspection team during the facility reviews will be Michael Boga and Candice Pursch. The management approach will include coordination and assistance from DAC office staff under the direction of Jennie Grover, Director of Administrative Services, Tim Mahoney, General Manager and Candice Pursch, Director of Accessibility Services.
DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 12
DAC
❑ Specific methodologies and data collection will be clarified. Timelines and benchmarks will be developed. Operational and procedural requirements will be reviewed, such as coordination of schedules, name tags, project dates and other relevant information. DAC staff members wear DAC uniform shirts and have DAC identification badges.
❑ The initial orientation meeting will include an assessment of any previous compliance activities and areas of current or potential litigation. The review of compliance activities and high priority areas will assist with the development of an overall project plan. The review and documentation of prior initiatives will also build a more defensible plan if the City is challenged by litigation. ❑ Project objectives will be clarified and elements that may be unique or of importance for the City will be discussed.
❑ Hours of operation, schedules and City activities by location will be discussed.
Survey of Facilities, Parks and PROW, Software for Transition Plans ❑ DAC will conduct the surveys of the interior and exterior areas of each City building, facility recreational area and public right-of-way identified in the RFP and confirmed at the kickoff meeting.
❑ DAC will prepare reports identifying each physical element within the public areas of each of the City buildings, facilities, recreational areas and public right-of-way that is out of compliance with the ADA and related codes and regulations or otherwise hinders or prevents access to persons with disabilities.
❑ As required by the ADA, the 2010 ADA Standards will be compared with state codes and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized. As DAC collects actual measurements of as -is field conditions and records all information, data can be reprocessed if codes change without conducting a re -inspection, thus resulting in a significant savings when codes change, and the plan needs to be updated.
❑ DAC will provide the City with DACTrak online accessibility management software for City staff to generate reports in multiple styles and file formats. DACTrak reports will include, but may not be limited to the following:
❑ DAC collects as -built dimensions as they relate to ADA and other relevant code and guideline access;
o Initial prioritizing of non -compliant findings relative to the level of impact to access; o Reference to code or codes defining the barrier to access; o Proposed solution(s) to eliminate the barrier;
o Individual detailed cost estimate for each solution;
o At least one digital photograph of each barrier to access; o Detailed location description, including GIS coordinates for available outdoor areas, to further identify the barrier when available.
❑ Assessments and reports will include a high degree of detail with photographs, code references, cost estimates and GIS information when applicable. The DACTrak software provides the user with the capability to generate reports in multiple formats such as progress reports, additional prioritizations, preset reporting features and other custom reports. The inclusion of photographs showing the as -is condition has proven to be valuable assistance to clients in the formulation of the decisions regarding barrier removal priorities. The DACTrak software provides an easy to use accessibility management platform that exceeds the ability to manage the plan by hard copies and binders. The assessment report of each facility will include cost estimates to correct deficiencies in accordance with the ADA or other applicable federal or state accessibility codes. ❑ Barriers are identified by building, floor or location and given a unique identifier record number to assist with navigation in the accessibility software and location of the finding and recommendation by area and site. Estimated applicable costs will be given by item and element in accordance with industry standards. Costs can be easily adjusted to adhere to any cost estimates the City may utilize.

❑ Physical access problems that require structural solutions will be documented in the compliance assessment reports that will be used to develop the transition plan. The proposed method for barrier removal will be provided. The transition plan will identify physical barriers that may limit accessibility of the City programs, services or activities for individuals with disabilities. The schedule for removal of barriers and appropriate timelines will be developed in consultation with the City. ❑ Identified barriers and obstacles will be prioritized as discussed in the Scope of Work. Use of the DACTrak software will provide the City with an additional tool to reprioritize items depending upon the unique and ongoing needs of the City and public comments during the public input process. Public and nonpublic areas will be identified, if requested. Employee only areas, for example, are usually given a lower priority for barrier removal. ❑ Detailed findings, inspection intake records and digital photos are recorded during the intake process. Findings are incorporated into the transition/barrier removal plans. Information collected during the survey process is preloaded by DAC into our DACTrak accessibility management software.
The DAC surveys of the public rights -of -way may include, but would not be limited to:
Sidewalks
• Width
• Cross Slope
• Running slope
• Changes in elevation greater than 1/4 inch and changes in elevation that are not beveled up to 1/2 inch
• Any obstructions in the sidewalk that obstruct or narrow the path of travel such as protruding objects and items that narrow the required width
• Street furniture
• Collection of GIS location information and photographs Signalized Intersections
• Crosswalks
• Pedestrian ramps -curb ramps; width, slope, side flares, grooved borders, truncated domes, alignment with the crosswalk
• Accessible pedestrian signals
• Traffic stop bars
DAC uses a comprehensive approach to inspecting public rights - of -way. In order to conduct an assessment of all of the requirements in the PROW, DAC accessibility specialists walk each mile of sidewalk to record manual measurements and
photographs of the field conditions and enter the information into our DACTrak tablet in the field. DAC has found that the use of automated equipment for running slopes on sidewalks, such as ultra -light profilers, do not provide an actual measurement, but only provide a chart showing ranges. In some cases, if a change in level is greater than 1/2 inch, no actual quantifiable information is reported of how much greater the severity. In order to get the actual measurements for the sidewalks, the use of a"profiler" does not provide the measurements needed for items such as vertical clearance and street furniture.
The on -site facility team leader conducts a quality assurance review and contacts the field inspector regarding any items in the report that may need further investigation. The on -site facility team leader completes any necessary edits, and the final quality control editor is notified that the report is ready for the final edit.
Cost estimates are provided by DACTrak and then can be refined by DAC in collaboration with the City. If the City has utilized cost estimates for standard nonaccessible items or elements, then the City's costs can be entered into the DACTrak program.
DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 14
As is the case with most public entities, due to the limited City staff availability it is the intent of DAC to conduct the surveys with as little burden on the City staff as possible.
DAC team members will conduct on -site inspections on our DACTrak tablets and export the on -site field conditions for processing by our servers the same day of the inspection while located in the City. Thus, the draft report is ready the same day or at the end of the inspection of the site. Cost estimates are then refined by Michael Boga, Senior Director of Accessibility Services, in collaboration with the City. If the City has utilized cost estimates for standard nonaccessible items or elements, then the City's costs can be entered into the DACTrak program.

Estimated applicable costs will be given by item and element in accordance with industry standards. Costs can be easily adjusted to adhere to any cost estimates the City may utilize.
The proposed method for barrier removal will be provided. The transition plan will identify physical barriers that may limit accessibility of the City programs, services or activities for individuals with disabilities. The schedule for removal of barriers and appropriate timelines will be developed in collaboration with the City. Identified barriers and obstacles will be initially prioritized.
Use of the DACTrak software will provide the City with an additional tool to update prioritizations, budget, implement and monitor barrier removal. DAC uses a comprehensive approach to inspecting public rights -of -way and records actual as -is measurements, not just an indicator of compliant or not compliant. DAC has found that the use of automated equipment for compliance measurements DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 15
DC
of sidewalks does not provide actual comprehensive measurement of areas required to be assessed, such as protruding objects.
DAC team members will conduct onsite inspections on our DACTrak tablets and export the on -site field conditions for processing by our servers the same day of the inspection. An Executive Summary of the entire project will also be provided to the City. DAC will provide the City with access to DACTrak, allowing the City's users to generate details reports in multiple formats, including PDF and Excel, as well as map style formats of KML and Shapefile for available exterior areas where GIS coordinates can be collected.
The DACTrak online accessibility management software will provide the City with comprehensive reports for the interior and exterior of each facility. DACTrak also includes tools that will allow the City to plan a schedule of barrier removal, adjust priorities and update the implementation of the transition plan. Many report options are available in DACTrak that can show detailed information for every noncompliant finding along each area of sidewalk, through high level summary reports that can offer a concise synopsis of noncompliant City-wide findings by category.
Buildings, parks and open space assessments will include an assessment of all interior and exterior elements. The reports prepared from the assessments will include details of all elements surveyed.
DAC will conduct barrier assessment surveys with field reviews of all City -owned public buildings that provide programs, services or activities to the public, as appropriate. The surveys will identify physical barriers at each facility that could limit accessibility. The information collected in the field will be compared to the Federal ADA codes as well as applicable state codes and the standard that provides the greater level of accessibility utilized.

DAC
Task 5.0: Public Involvement and Outreach
The City is required to provide opportunities for public input into the ADA plan. DAC will recommend and lead a public participation and outreach process that will incorporate the requirements of the ADA. The outreach portion of the self -evaluation and transition plan project will include multiple methods to provide opportunities for public input from members of the community as well as area organizations that provide services to persons with disabilities. The surveys that will be prepared for use in acquiring public input will encourage respondents to describe current accessibility needs and challenges to assist the City in developing accessible programs and facilities. DAC will work with the City to determine the most effective methods to gather input from individuals and groups who would like to participate in the development of the plan. DAC will compile all comments and feedback from public outreach efforts to be incorporated in the final transition plan.
Task 6.0: Project Database
Based on experience and knowledge of the accessibility field and best practices, DAC continues to develop innovative methodologies, easy to use ADA management tools, and proven, successful strategies for evaluating programs, services, activities, events, facilities, parks and public rights -of - way. DACTrak was developed by DAC for the purpose of easy and useful importing and management of the accessibility data collected in the field.
DACTrak is interactive online software and is not an enhanced excel spread sheet. The ability to collect, compile, analyze and use report data in a practical format was one of the driving forces to develop the DACTrak intake and management software. Our DAC accessibility management software, DACTrak, provides our clients with a powerful management tool to document compliance, project costs, print custom reports and record progress. Findings and recommendations, in addition to other data are preloaded into the DACTrak software.
DAC owns and licenses the DACTrak online software which is accessed through a secure website compatible with all current major Windows based internet browsers. There is no software program file to download or install on the City's servers or computers in order to access and manage report data on DACTrak. All maintenance and updates to the DACTrak software are performed by DAC's in-house IT Team, therefore there is no burden on the City's IT staff to maintain or administer any software, programs or databases.
The data contained in the database shall be the property of the City. DAC proposes that the City use DACTrak to facilitate ongoing monitoring and updating of the final transition plan. If the City chooses not to use the DACTrak online management software, DAC can provide reports to the City in a compatible format such as Excel and PDF.
Task 7.0 Preliminary Cost Estimates
DAC via the DACTrak software can provide preliminary cost estimates for each barrier identified in the inspection process. DAC will also collaborate with City staff to determine both local and long- term costing and costing contingencies.
Task 8.0 Final ADA Self -Evaluation and Transition Plan DAC will assist the City to develop a comprehensive ADA Self -evaluation and Transition plan and will include at a minimum a summary of findings of the self -evaluation of facilities, policies, programs, and practices, the recommendations for remedial measures to correct deficiencies and a methodology for prioritizing barrier remediation, cost estimates for recommended remediation measures, assistance with an implementation schedule that includes milestones or measures of achievement for monitoring implementation, recommendations for procedures and forms for monitoring implementation, recommendations for procedures for periodically reviewing and updating the ADA transition plan, recommendations for procedures and forms for performing evaluations of additional barriers, recommendations for procedures and forms for filing requests for accommodation, a list of references and contact information for ADA and accessibility related resources; and identification of the City official(s) with overall responsibility for implementation of DAC Proposal to the City of Placentia for ADA Consultant Services 17

the plan. DAC will present the draft ADA transition plan and subsequently, the final proposed ADA transition plan findings to City Staff by issuing logins to the DACTrak accessibility management software and conducting and interactive training session via teleconference. DAC can also present the final document to the City Council.
DAC will provide the City with DACTrak online accessibility management software which will allow City staff to review and print standard and custom reports on demand, as well as implement and update the transition plan and schedule of barrier removal overtime. There are no per user seat licenses to access DACTrak, DAC can establish password protected logins to as many City staff as needed. In addition to providing the City with access to DACTrak to view and download reports, DAC can deliver the final self -evaluation and transition plan to the City in multiple formats such as in PDF, Microsoft Excel, KML and ESRI Shapefile for available exterior reports. The Executive Summary will be provided to the City in both Word and PDF formats and can also be printed if requested. If the City chooses not to use DACTrak, all data files and project maps and drawings associated with the self -evaluation report and transition plan will be provided to the City in a mutually agreed format.
All data collected will be property of the City.
DAC will collaborate with the City to assist in the development of a 10 -year CIP budget for accessibility.
