CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – JUNE 18, 2024
SUBJECT: Consideration of Calling November 5, 2024, General Election; Requesting Consolidation of Election; and Setting Specified Services SOURCE: Administrative Services
COMMENT: As the City Council is aware, the City's next general election is set to take place on November 5, 2024. Three districts have representatives with terms expiring in 2024: Mayor Martha Flores in District 3, Council Member Don Wehyrauch in District 4, and Vice Mayor Kellie Carrillo in District 5. It is now time for the Council to make certain determinations for the election protocols, including: A) whether the City wishes to consolidate its election with the County elections; and B) if candidate statements of 200 words or less will be permitted, and if so, who will be responsible for the cost - the City or the candidates.

A. Consolidation
The City has consolidated its elections with the County for over twenty years.

Prior to 2003, the City conducted stand-alone elections with the assistance and guidance from the election consulting firm Martin Chapman, which ceased operations in 2018. In consolidating with the County, the Registrar of Voters would provide the following services:

1. Distribute and file nomination papers and candidate statements for candidates for City offices.

B. Candidates Statements:

With regard to Candidate Statements, the Council must determine whether candidate statements are to be allowed, and if so, who will be the responsible party for paying the pro rata cost of printing and distribution. Said cost is based on the number of registered voters within each district and the final amount may vary depending on the number of candidates filing statements for each individual district area, as printing costs are shared. The approximate costs are as follows:
• District 3 - $650
• District 4 - $750
• District 5 - $500
This estimate serves as a deposit and once the actual cost is determined by the County, the deposit is reconciled.

Historically, past Councils have differed on approaches to this item. In some past elections, the City bore the cost of the Candidate Statements, and in others – most recently the 2022 election – the Candidates bore the cost. The Council could also consider a hybrid in which the City and Candidate each pay a portion.

Staff has budgeted $60,000 in the General Fund for this election. For Council’s information, the number of registered voters currently in Porterville is 25,319.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Adopt the draft Resolution calling the Election for November 5, 2024; requesting and consenting to the consolidation of the election; and setting specifications of the election order;

2. Adopt the draft Resolution requesting that the Board of Supervisors permit the Registrar of Voters to render specified services to the City for the November 5, 2024, Election;

3. Make a determination on whether candidate statements of 200 words or less will be allowed with no additional mailings, and if so, who shall be responsible for the estimated cost per candidate - the City or the candidate;

4. Authorize that the County Election Department, 5300 W.

Tulare Ave. Suite 105, Visalia, California 93277, be designated as the Central Counting Place for the November 5, 2024, General Municipal Election; and

5. Authorize payment to the Tulare County Registrar of Voters upon the completion of the requested services.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA – JUNE 18, 2024
SUBJECT: Authorization to Execute Transportation Services Agreement - Transit Management, Operations, and Maintenance of Porterville Transit SOURCE: Engineering and Project Management
COMMENT: At its meeting on June 4, 2024, the City Council authorized staff to begin negotiations for a Transportation Services Agreement with Tree's Sierra Management, Inc (dba SM Transit) for the Transit Management, Operations, and Maintenance of Porterville Transit. In addition to managing, operating, and maintaining the Porterville Transit System (PT), the scope of services also includes managing, operating, and maintaining the facility, fleet vehicles, and buses provided by the City. The initial agreement will be a five (5) year term and shall, at the City's option, be unilaterally extended annually thereafter for up to five (5) consecutive one-year option periods. The base term of the agreement resulting from this procurement will be a firm-fixed-price for five years, commencing on July 1, 2024, and ending on June 30, 2029. Price increases, if any, will be calculated by the California Consumer Price Index (CPI) and executed through an amendment to the contract and shall apply solely to the possible agreement extension years beyond the initial five-year agreement term.

Staff was able to negotiate pricing for this agreement that fell within industry norms as well as the City's Independent Cost Estimate (ICE). Year one of the agreed upon "Multi-Year Price Plan" includes startup costs as well as hardware replacements that may be required; the necessity of such items is dependent on the condition of the fleet and its components upon return to the City from Tulare County Regional Transit Agency (TCRTA).

Staff has found the negotiated pricing in the "Multi-Year Price Plan" acceptable and recommends approval of the Transportation Services Agreement for the Transit Management, Operations, and Maintenance of Porterville Transit. Local Transportation Funds (LTF), State Transit Assistance Funds (STAF), Federal Transit Administration (FTA) grants, Measure R and farebox revenues are the sources of funding for the Porterville Transit System management, operations and maintenance.

RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council:

1. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Transportation Services Agreement with Tree's Sierra Management, Inc (dba SM Transit) for the Transit Management, Operations, and Maintenance of Porterville Transit per the scope of services defined in the Item No. 26.

Request for Qualifications (RFP) for this agreement at a price not to exceed those listed in the agreed upon "Multi-Year Price Plan" incorporated as "Attachment B" in the agreement; and

2. Authorize progress payments up to one hundred percent (100%) of the fee amounts for services rendered upon receipt of invoices approved by the Assistant City Manager.

CONTRACTOR shall cause such additional insureds to be added to its policy of insurance by way of an endorsement which endorsement shall be a CG 20 10 11/85 or equivalent additional insured endorsement. IF CONTRACTOR utilizes one or more subcontractors in the performance of this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain independent insurance as to each subcontractor or otherwise provide evidence of insurance coverage for each subcontractor equivalent to that required of CONTRACTOR. The ADDITIONAL INSURED ENDORSEMENT shall not be an omnibus endorsement but shall specifically and directly name each additional insured. Such ADDITIONAL INSURED ENDORSEMENT will explicitly include coverage for the additional insureds for both ongoing and completed operations so long as the liability of an additional insured arises out of the work of the named insured, or so long as an additional insured's liability arises out of the named insured's performance of this Agreement. The ADDITIONAL INSURED ENDORSEMENT shall not contain any provisions which limit or restrict coverage for the additional insureds beyond the extent set forth above.

Any insurance carrier providing insurance called for in thissection shall be from aCalifornia admitted carrier and have aminimum ratingof AM. Best Rated A, or better. Any self-insured retention shall be declared by CONTRACTOR and approved in writing by CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall provide CITY with the ADDITIONAL INSURED ENDORSEMENTS required by this paragraph within thirty (30) days of the Notice of Contract Award and, upon request, a copy of the entire policy of insurance. Such policy or policies of insurance shall provide that they may not be cancelled without at least 30 days written notice to CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall provide CITY with a copy of the current policy of insurance and all endorsements, as well as documentation for coverage under any self-insured retention, within ten (10) daysofreceiving such a request from CITY). b.

CONTRACTOR shall name CITY and each of the member jurisdictions, or other parties as required by CITY, including their officers, employees and agents, as additional insured on said policy and shall furnish CITY with evidence of insurance within 30 days of the notice of contract award. Such policy or policies shall provide that they may not be cancelled without at least thirty (30) days written notice to CITY.

CONTRACTOR shall provide CITY with a copy of the current policy of insurance and all endorsements within ten (10) days of receiving such a request from CITY. c. If requested by CITY, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain Professional Liability Insurance coverage in an amount not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00). d.

The indemnification provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this agreement or any extensions thereof.
e. Should, at any time, any of the insurance policies required by this Agreement be unsatisfactory to CITY, at its sole discretion, CONTRACTOR shall promptly obtain a new policy, submit the same to CITY. Upon failure of CONTRACTOR to furnish, deliver or maintain any insurance and endorsements as required by this Agreement, at the election of CITY, this Agreement may be immediately terminated as provided herein. Failure of CONTRACTOR to obtain and maintain any required insurance shall not relieve CONTRACTOR of any liability under this Agreement (and CONTRACTOR may be answerable to CITY for damages or any other remedy on account of such breach) nor shall the insurance requirements be construed to conflict with or otherwise limit the obligations of CONTRACTOR concerning indemnification.
f. All insurance provided by CONTRACTOR shall be primary and any insurance or self­ insurance maintained by CITY and its member jurisdictions shall be excess of CONTRACTOR's insurance and shall not contribute to it.
g. CONTRACTOR's failure to provide the insurance required by this section, or CONTRACTOR's submission of insurance policies, endorsements, and other documentation (whether or not such documentation is "accepted" by CITY) shall not waive or satisfy the CONTRACTOR's obligation to provide CITY with the insurance required by this Agreement if it has failed to do so. Should CONTRACTOR fail to provide insurance in the form and amount specified by this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall be directly liable to CITY to provide it with both a defense and indemnity for any losses which CITY incurs to the extent such losses would have been covered by insurance as is specified in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the above, CONTRACTOR shall not be required to indemnify CITY from loss or liability to the extent such loss or liability arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of CITY, its agents, directors, and employees, at such time that such sole negligence or willful misconduct has been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
h. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance proceeds broader than or in excess of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements as set forth above and/or limits shall be available to the additional insured.

Furthermore, the requirements for coverage and limits shall be (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this Agreement; or (2) the broader coverage and limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds available to the named insured, whichever is greater. The defense and indemnifications of this Agreement are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this Agreement. All deductibles and self- insured retentions (SIR) must be disclosed to CITY for approval and shall not reduce the limits of the liability. Policies containing any SIR provision shall provide, or be endorsed to provide, that the SIR may be satisfied by either the named insured or CITY. CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsement coverage under this Agreement. Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise it later.

The duties and obligations imposed by this agreement and the rights and remedies available there under shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations, rights, and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law. No action or failure to act by CITY or CONTRACTOR shall constitute a waiver of any right or duty afforded any of them under this agreement, nor shall any such action or failure to act constitute an approval of or acquiescence in any breach there under, except as may be specifically agreed in writing.

The Federal Procurement Regulations shall be used where applicable to define, resolve, and settle procurement issues. Unless otherwise directed by CITY, CONTRACTOR shall continue performance under this agreement while matters in dispute are being resolved.

15. TERMINATION FOR DEFAULT
a. All the terms, conditions, and covenants of this agreement are considered material and in the event CONTRACTOR breaches or defaults in the performance of any such terms, conditions, or covenants which are to be kept, done or performed by it, CITY shall give CONTRACTOR ten days written notice either by certified mail or by personal service, describing such breach or default, and if CONTRACTOR fails, neglects or refuses for a period or more than ten days thereafter to remedy, or cure such breach or default, then CITY without further notice, may terminate this agreement.

In the event CITY does take possession of CONTRACTOR-supplied facilities and equipment, CONTRACTOR shall be reimbursed by CITY forthe actual cost ofthe temporary use ofsaid facilities and equipment. If it is later determined by CITY that CONTRACTOR had an excusable reason for not performing, such as a strike, fire, or flood, events which are not the fault of or are beyond the control of CONTRACTOR, CITY, after setting up a new delivery of performance schedule, may allow CONTRACTOR to continue work, or treat the termination as a termination for convenience. b. Bankruptcy: Either (a) the appointment of a receiver to take full possession of all or substantially all of the assets of CONTRACTOR or (b) a general assignment by CONTRACTOR for the benefit of creditors, or (c) any action taken by or suffered by CONTRACTOR under any insolvency or bankruptcy act shall constitute a breach of the agreement by CONTRACTOR and CITY shall have the option to terminate this agreement. The parties specifically agree that the selection of CONTRACTOR is based on factors that render contractor especially suited to perform this agreement, such that the identity of contractor is central to the obligations in this contract. Accordingly, this contract is similar to a personal services contract and nonassignable under 11 USC 365 (c).

d. CONTRACTOR shall be paid its costs, including contract close-out costs, and profit from work performed up to the time of termination. CONTRACTOR shall promptly submit its termination claim to CITY to be paid CONTRACTOR.

17. REMEDIES ON BREACH (WAIVER OF REMEDIES)
The duties and obligations imposed by the agreement and the rights and remedies available hereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations, rights, and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law. No action or failure to act by CITY or CONTRACTOR shall constitute a waiver of any right or duty afforded any of them under the agreement, nor shall any such action or failure to act constitute an approval of or acquiescence in any breach hereunder, except as may be specifically agreed in writing. In the event that CITY elects to waive its remedies for any breach by CONTRACTOR of any covenant, term or condition of this agreement, such waiver shall not limit CITY's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this agreement. It is agreed that in the event of failure by CONTRACTOR to perform the services required by this agreement, in addition to all other remedies, penalties and damages provided by law, CITY may provide such services, and deduct the cost of doing so from the amounts due or to become due to the CONTRACTOR. The costs to be deducted shall be the actual costs to CITY to provide such services.

18. RIGHTS UPON TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION AND WAIVER OF CLAIMS Upon expiration or earlier termination of this agreement, CITY shall have the right to provide the services by means of its own employees or pursuant to contract with other carrier(s) or otherwise.

Having entered into this agreement shall not be the sole reason whereby the CONTRACTOR shall be inhibited, penalized, or disqualified from submitting proposals for subsequent transportation, management, and operation programs under the jurisdiction of CITY.

19. CHANGES
CITY, without invalidating this agreement, may order additions to or deletions from the work to be performed. Such changes shall be specified to CONTRACTOR in writing. If justified, the "Maximum Obligation" will be adjusted accordingly. New provisions must be mutually agreeable to both CITY and CONTRACTOR. A shift of vehicle service hours between services within the maximum value or an increase or decrease of up to 15% percent change (up or down) within the current span of service would not constitute a change as defined in this agreement, but any such shift or change shall only occur at the direction of CITY.
