PUBLIC COMMENT
The following spoke in support of reinstatement of the Shasta SuperMoto’s license Agreement:

Rhonda Monroe, Mark Monroe, Shiree Cano, Allie Severson, Chris Severson, and Jamie Mobilia.

Zackery Scott noted that he was one of the founding members with Mark Monroe and wanted to clear up some misinformation on social media that the Shasta SuperMoto has been a club for 12 years, but it has actually only been 10.

Nick Gardner expressed his frustration with decisions by the previous and current City Managers, and also suggested that the City of Redding get rid of the Council-Manager form of government, and institute a Mayor-Council form instead to lead the City of Redding, with an election for the Mayor every two years.

Robert Sid opined that: (1) political and non-political leaders should assist the healthcare community in its recruiting efforts; (2) he opposed granting money to a non-profit; and (3) opposed the City Manager appointing his successor.

Council Members Dhanuka and Resner reiterated to Mr. Sid and the community that only the City Council makes those decisions related to the hiring of the Interim and permanent City Manager positions.

Steve Kohn and Jenny expressed support for City staff and the City’s current financial auditing system in place and spoke in opposition to Council Member Audette’s social media posts.

The following spoke in support of public transparency and performing a forensic audit of the City of Redding’s financials: Jay Dunlap, Leslie Sawyer, and Margaret Hansen.

Mayor Munns declared his trust of City staff, including City Manager Tippin, Assistant City Manager Bade, City Attorney Curtis, and all of the other City staff. He noted that he has met with City Manager at least 300 times over the last three years, and opined that he does a great job, and further expressed his appreciation for City staff.

Delores Lucero advised the Council of her submittal of a public records request relative to Council Member Audette’s budget document shared through social media, and opined that she will not be making any judgements until researching the facts for herself through the public records request.

In response to Mr. Sid’s earlier public comment, Council Member Resner provided a brief timeline from when the Council was first made aware of City Manager’s wish to retire in 2023. She explained what the process is regarding searching for, selecting, and the hiring of a new City Manager.

9.6(b). Resolution approving financial assistance for Advance Redding and approving a lease amendment for the Civic Auditorium located at 700 Auditorium Drive.

Community Services Director Travis Menne summarized the Report to City Council (staff report), and provided a PowerPoint presentation, both incorporated herein by reference.

Steve Kohn opined his support for this agreement, and cautioned that the deferred maintenance is the larger issue and if the proposed sales tax measure fails, he opined that the Civic Auditorium will have to close.

A discussion amongst the Council ensued.

Council Member Dhanuka stated that although he wants the Civic Auditorium to remain open, as it is a community asset and loved by the public, he suggested only giving half of the grant to Advance Redding now, and then granting the other half once they provide a sustainable future plan.

In response to Council Member Dhanuka, Advance Redding Chief Executive Officer Julie Dyer informed the Council that due to the unique contract between Advance Redding and the City of Redding, it will be unable to secure events without approval of this modified agreement.

In response to Council Member Audette, Director Menne noted that these funds were originally set aside as land sale funds for the Sheraton property for the specific use of maintaining the Civic Auditorium or completing projects for it, however, the funds could be put toward other uses at Council’s direction.

A MOTION WAS MADE by Council Member Resner, seconded by Council Member Littau, to approve the following actions relative to providing financial assistance to Advance Redding for the operations of the Redding Civic Auditorium: (1) adopt Resolution No. 2025-073, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding, changing the initial designation of capital improvements and deferred maintenance to the Civic Auditorium to the purpose of providing a grant to assist with operational expenses at the Civic Auditorium; (2) authorize the Mayor to execute the First Amendment to the Amended and Restated Civic Auditorium Lease Agreement (C-5682) with Advance Redding deferring the $5,000 per month lease payments until January 2026; (3) authorize the Mayor to execute the Grant Agreement with Advance Redding in an amount not to exceed $675,445.27; and (4) adopt Resolution No. 2025-074, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redding, approving and adopting the 10th Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2025-049 appropriating $675,450 for the Advance Redding assistance grant.

9.14(a). Item 4.14(a) was moved from the Consent Calendar at the request of Council Member Resner.

Finance Director/City Treasurer to prepare a written response to Council Member Audette's published Redding Budget Findings Report.

City Attorney Curtis summarized the Report to City Council (staff report), incorporated herein by reference.

City Attorney Curtis noted that this was on consent to make sure this is actually what the Council was looking for in terms of the report, and if not, then to give alternative direction.

For the purposes of this report, the City Manager is abstaining from any input or review and the document will be provided through the City Attorney’s office.

Council Member Resner wanted to ensure that the City issues a press release at the same time that Council receives the report, and have it posted on the City’s website as well.

Ben Nowain spoke in support, and expressed frustration with Council Member Audette’s independent budget document, and her opposition to the proposed sales tax increase that is initiated by citizens, not City staff.

Delores Lucero opined that Council Member Audette is expressing her concerns with the City’s finances without evidence.

Leslie Sawyer expressed support of Council Member Audette and her financial budget document and opined that a forensic financial audit needs to be done before the City Manager retires.

David Hallagan supported the Finance Director providing a response to Council Member Audette’s allegations concerning the City Manager and the Finance Department, noting that a thorough review needs to be done by the Finance Director to protect the city from legal liability and, if appropriate based on the results, to safeguard the reputation of the City’s Finance Department and the City Manager and ensure a fair outcome for all parties.

Council Member Audette requested that the response be presented at a future Council meeting for discussion.

A discussion amongst the Council ensued.

In response to Council Members Dhanuka and Resner, Finance Director Greg Robinett advised the Council that it is within their jurisdiction to direct staff to hire an independent audit firm, at the cost of approximately $150,000, however, a formal audit review would take a substantial amount of time due to staff limitations and current audit cycle preparations.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation

Fiscal Impact
The City of Redding (City) has been notified of potential emergency aid funding, however, exact dollar amounts are yet to be determined from the state or federal authorities. Below is a table of identified emergency repair projects with estimated costs and current funding sources.

Location/Project Contractor/FA1 Estimated Costs Funding Source2 South Bonnyview Storm Drain J.F Shea $3,750,000 Wastewater Utility3 Parkview Sewer Siphon M5 $1,000,000 Wastewater Utility
Sacramento River Trail FA $2,000 Parks
Caldwell Park FA $10,500 Parks
Clover Creek Preserve FA $3,000 Parks
Angler’s Trail FA $2,000 Parks

SUBJECT: 4.1(a)--Confirmation of Continued Local Emergency Due to Flooding Jason Gibilisco, Management
Assistant to the City Manager
Packet Pg. 23
Report to Redding City Council September 30, 2025
Re: 4.1(a)--Confirmation of Continued Local Emergency Due to Flooding Page 2 Alternative Action
The Council could choose not to confirm that conditions of a local emergency continue to exist.

Under Public Contract Code section 22050(c)(1) the local emergency can only be terminated by a four-fifths vote of the Council. To that end, the Council’s prior determination of a local emergency will remain unless an affirmative vote of the Council is made to terminate the local emergency.

Background/Analysis
On February 2, 2025, a storm event occurred in the City, ultimately causing conditions beyond the immediate control of local resources, services, personnel, equipment, and facilities. These winter storms brought heavy rain to all areas of Shasta County which in turn caused a significant increase in releases from Shasta Dam resulting in localized flooding, water rescues, and damage to roadways, trail systems, storm water systems, and other infrastructure.

Due to these events and weather conditions, a local emergency was proclaimed on February 11, 2025, and on February 18, 2025, the Council ratified this proclamation and will continue the declaration until such time that the threat of these storms has subsided, there is no longer an elevated risk to life and property, and the emergency restoration of facilities has been completed.

The local emergency was declared by the City Manager serving in his capacity as Director of Emergency Services under RMC 9.12.030. The Proclamation of the Director of Emergency Services is attached.

The South Bonnyview Boat Launch access road remains closed due to the failed culvert. Staff has constructed a temporary access road for the boat launch and it is open for public use.

Approximately 200 feet of the overall 700-foot-long, 10-foot diameter culvert had failed and other pipe sections had been compromised. J.F. Shea has completed the installation of new pipe and all the backfill requirements including the placement of the Cell-Crete flowable grout that will fill the annular space around the new fiberglass reinforced pipe and the existing corrugated metal pipe. J.F. Shea has also completed the concrete headwall structure and has placed all of the rip-rap stabilization rock around the inlets for the storm drain. Currently, J.F. Shea is working toward reestablishing the existing surface conditions around each excavation location.

Landscapers will be on site to repair irrigation and existing lawn starting on October 6, 2025 and the completion of all surface restorations are predicted to be completed by the second week of October 2025. J.F. Shea plans on completing the paving operations for the project and reopen the South Bonnyview Boat Launch access road by the end of October 2025, pending any unforeseen issues and inclement weather.

On August 18, 2025, Nur Pon Open Space was partially reopened - one bridge remains closed.

The flood waters damaged the bridges, kayak boat launch area, and trails. Parks Division staff began ordering and importing materials while working to repair the open space. Staff has completed repairs on the main trail and walking bridges, the bathrooms, and the parking lot facility. High river flows had affected staff’s ability to repair a culvert, and flood erosion has made the trail impassable. However, the flows have since subsided and repairs are underway.

Until completed, the trail will remain closed in that section, and the full loop will not be open.

Staff will perform additional repairs in other affected parks and open space areas and expects completion of all repair activities by the end of October 2025.

Report to Redding City Council September 30, 2025
Re: 4.1(a)--Confirmation of Continued Local Emergency Due to Flooding Page 3 The Parkview Sewer Siphon Repair Project located within the Linden Creek Channel was also affected by the rain events and flood waters resulting in a landslide that exposed the existing sewer siphon just west of Parkview Avenue. Due to environmental compliance requirements, the start of the project was delayed. However, M5 Excavation (M5) continues to make great progress on reestablishing the embankment for the slope protection scope of this project. M5 has completed all of the instream work as of September 25, 2025 and anticipates completing the slope protection by the third week of October 2025, and moving their operations to hydroseeding for permanent erosion control for all the disturbed slopes. The estimated project completion should be around the last week of October 2025, pending any unforeseen issues.

Cal OES has requested estimates for damages to both private and public sites. Staff has met with Cal OES and has sent them information on the damage and associated costs. The current damage is estimated to be $7.15 million. This cost could go up as staff continues to monitor and identify damaged areas to determine the level of repair necessary.

On July 29, 2025, in accordance with the California Emergency Services Act, the Governor declared a State of Emergency to exist in Shasta County for the 2025 February Storms. To help the impacted communities recover from the event, California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA) funding has been authorized for Shasta County for the 2025 February Storms (CDAA 2025-07). The reimbursement process and exact dollar amounts will be forthcoming from Cal OES.

On August 19, 2025, City staff attended a meeting with Cal OES to discuss the next steps in receiving funding.

PROCLAMATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY
WHEREAS between January 31, 2025, and February 17, 2025, Humboldt, Mendocino, Modoc, Napa, Shasta, Sonoma, and Trinity Counties were severely impacted by a series of atmospheric rivers (“2025 February Storms”); and
WHEREAS these 2025 February Storms resulted in excessive rainfall, landslides, and widespread flooding affecting roads and waterways; and WHEREAS under the provisions of Government Code section 8558(b), I find that conditions of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property exist due to the 2025 February Storms in Humboldt, Mendocino, Modoc, Napa, Shasta, Sonoma, and Trinity Counties; and
WHEREAS under the provisions of Government Code section 8558(b), I find that the conditions caused by the 2025 February Storms, by reason of their magnitude, are or are likely to be beyond the control of the services, personnel, equipment, and facilities of any single local government and require the combined forces of a mutual aid region or regions to appropriately respond; and
WHEREAS under the provisions of Government Code section 8625(c), I find that local authority is inadequate to cope with the magnitude of the extreme peril posed by the 2025 February Storms; and
WHEREAS under the provisions of Government Code section 8571, I find that strict compliance with various statutes and regulations specified in this Proclamation would prevent, hinder, or delay the mitigation of the effects of the 2025 February Storms.

Redding, CA 96001
Subject: Shasta County – 2025 February Storms– Request for a Governor’s State of Emergency and California Disaster Assistance Act Funding Dear Chairperson Crye:

This letter is in response to Shasta County’s request for a Governor’s State of Emergency and financial assistance from the California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA) as a result of the 2025 February Storms.

In accordance with the California Emergency Services Act, the Governor declared a State of Emergency to exist in Shasta County on July 29, 2025, for the 2025 February Storms. To help the impacted communities recover from the event, CDAA funding is authorized for Shasta County for the 2025 February Storms (CDAA 2025-07). My staff will contact your authorized agent on record under separate cover to provide the forms necessary to apply for reimbursement utilizing the CDAA Program.

Please know Cal OES will continue to work closely with your team during the recovery efforts. Feel free to contact me directly at [email protected], if you have additional questions or would like to discuss this matter further.

Sincerely,

ELI OWEN

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution by a four-fifths vote to confirm and ratify the Proclamation of the Director of Emergency Services declaring a local emergency and authorizing the City Manager to repair or replace public facilities and procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes without solicitation of competitive bids in accordance with Public Contract Code 20168 and 22050.

Fiscal Impact
Adoption of the resolution could have a positive fiscal impact of an indeterminate amount as it will facilitate the recovery of the community and the receipt of emergency aid from state, and possibly federal, authorities if it becomes available.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose not to adopt the resolution or provide alternate direction. Failure to adopt the resolution will result in a legal finding that the local emergency has ceased and will likely negatively impact the receipt of aid from state and/or federal authorities, and the City of Redding’s (City) ability to immediately repair or replace damaged infrastructure.

Background/Analysis
On February 2, 2025, a storm event arrived in the City of Redding, ultimately causing conditions to be beyond the immediate control of local resources, services, personnel, equipment, and facilities. These winter storms have brought heavy rain to all areas of Shasta County which in turn have caused a significant increase in releases from Shasta Dam resulting in localized flooding, water rescues, and damage to roadways, trail systems, storm water systems, and other infrastructure. At this time, continued high-water flows are expected with not all areas having MEETING DATE: February 18, 2025

been fully assessed. The current forecast calls for continued storms and additional snow and rainfall which could further exacerbate the damage and increase the difficulty of recovery efforts.

As the rain continues, the Bureau of Reclamation will be required to continue its high releases from Shasta Dam. There is potential for additional local flooding and infrastructure damage.

Due to these events and weather conditions, a local emergency was proclaimed on February 11, 2025, and it is recommended that the Council ratify this proclamation and continue the declaration until such time that the threat of these storms has subsided, there is no longer an elevated risk to life and property, and the emergency restoration of facilities has been completed.

The local emergency was declared by the City Manager serving in his capacity as Director of Emergency Services under RMC 9.12.030. The Proclamation of the Director of Emergency Services is attached.

Pursuant to Government Code section 8630, the Proclamation is valid for seven days. As such, if the Council does not act to adopt a resolution which confirms and ratifies the existence of a local emergency, the declaration of local emergency made under the Proclamation will lapse. A declaration of local emergency provides several benefits in time of emergency. Under Government Code section 8634, it permits a local agency to immediately promulgate orders and regulations necessary to protect the public health and safety. It further permits the State and local agencies to provide mutual aid to the City and makes the costs of such aid incurred by other agencies chargeable to the State. Lastly, the declaration of local emergency facilitates payment to the City by the State under the Disaster Assistance Act (Gov. Code section 8680 et seq.).

The resolution contains all the needed findings to continue the declaration of local emergency under the California Emergency Services Act (Government Code section 8550 et seq.). In the absence of action under Public Contract Code, the Council could declare an emergency under the California Emergency Service Act by a simple majority vote.

However, the resolution also seeks authorization under RMC 4.22.120 and Public Contract Code sections 20168 and 22050. As such, a fourth-fifths vote of the Council will be required to adopt the resolution. These sections provide authority which the Government Code, addressed above, does not. Public Contract Code sections 20168 and 22050 collectively provide authority to repair or replace a public facility, and procure the necessary equipment, services and supplies for those purposes without competitive bidding. While notice and competitive bidding are very beneficial in non-emergency situations, these processes are entirely too untimely if we are to immediately protect the public health and safety by restoration of public services and facilities. This is necessary due to the immediate need to repair or replace the 120-inch culvert that failed at the entrance to the Reginato Boat Ramp. This ramp serves as a critical entry point for river access for public safety agencies to effectuate river rescues and to access areas along the river that are otherwise inaccessible. Additionally, river guides and other river related businesses utilize this ramp extensively and prolonged closure will cause significant economic hardship as well as impeding life saving efforts by the Redding Police Department and the Shasta County Sheriff.

It should be noted that RMC 4.22.120 delegates authority to the City Manager to make a finding that the emergency will not permit the delay resulting from a competitive solicitation of bids and that immediate action is necessary to respond to the emergency. However, that authority is only valid for a period of seven days. By making this finding now by means of adoption of the resolution, the Council avoids the unfortunate circumstance whereby the immediate action sought by the City Manager to repair or replace public infrastructure will lapse absent an Packet Pg. 255 Packet Pg. 30 Attachment: Previous Staff Report - 021825 Declaring local emergency (4.1(a)--Confirmation of Continued Local Emergency Due to Flooding) Report to Redding City Council February 12, 2025

immediate, emergency Council meeting. In order to ensure Council oversight, RMC

4.22.120(C)(1) requires review of action under Public Contract Code sections 20168 and 22050 at every regular meeting until such time as the emergency ceases.

In summary, the resolution serves two important functions. It facilitates coordination with other public agencies assisting the City in responding to the local emergency and is a necessary precondition to receipt of state and federal aid. It also provides authority to the City to use its own resources in accomplishing repair or replacement of damaged public infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner while ensuring Council oversight of all such activity.

This is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Approve and authorize the following actions regarding the sale of real property located at 6155 Venture Parkway, Stillwater Business Park Lot 12 (Assessor’s Parcel No. 054-260-004) to Technisoil Industrial Inc.:
(1) Approve the First Amendment and Reinstatement to the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement (C-10825) for approximately 25.41 acres of City of Redding (City)-owned property, thereby extending the due diligence period and closing escrow by January 9, 2026;
(2) Authorize the Mayor to execute all related documents needed to complete the transaction; and
(3) Find the sale of the City-owned property is categorically exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15312 (surplus Government Property Sales)
Fiscal Impact
On June 18, 2025, an appraisal of the City of Redding (City) owned property - Parcel 12 at Stillwater Business Park located at 6155 Venture Parkway, Assessor’s Parcel Number 054-260- 004 (Property) - was completed and established a value of $1,080,000 - the agreed upon purchase price. The net funds from the purchase, after subtracting any closing costs, will be deposited into the City’s Capital Project Fund. Per Council Policy 1901 Disposition of CityOwned Real Property, Section Q Use of Proceeds, the use of these funds is subject to City Council’s (Council) consideration and approval. There is no negative impact to the General Fund with this action.

Alternative Action
The Council could choose not to extend the closing date, thereby canceling the original contract with Technisoil Industrial Inc. (Technisoil), and place the property back on the market.

Re: 4.1(b)--First Amendment to the PSA with Technisoil Industrial Inc; Stillwater Business Park Page 2
Background/Analysis
Technisoil, submitted an offer to purchase the subject City-owned property, depicted in the attached parcel map. Technisoil plans to expand their manufacturing of machine technology at the site.

Escrow was originally scheduled to close on August 11, 2025, per the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement (C-10825). The First Amendment to the Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement extends the due diligence period to December 10, 2025, and extends the escrow closing date to January 9, 2026. Technisoil anticipates that escrow will close sooner, but this extension allows for extra time in the event of unforeseen delays.

Environmental Review
The sale, inclusive of this amendment, of the City-owned property presents no significant impact on the environment and is therefore categorically exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines Section 15312 (Surplus Government Property Sales).

(1) A one-time payment to the General Fund in the amount of $3,250,000 for the Health Village project. This amount is the equivalent to the City’s non-utility impact fees for comparable development. The City Council (Council) will have flexibility in how the funding is used per the terms of the agreement;
(2) An annual $100,000 service impact offset payment, paid quarterly in $25,000 installments to the General Fund. Last fiscal year the tribe paid $126,824, which had been increased by inflation from the prior contract terms.
(3) A one-time payment of $601,000 to reimburse the City for water and wastewater connection impact fees; and
(4) Standard Rates will be charged for the City’s Water, Wastewater and Solid Waste Utilities.

The Distribution Utility Services Agreement (DUSA) provides that the Redding Rancheria, through Redding Rancheria Utility Corporation (RRUCO), will pay standard City utility rates for electric service, in accordance with applicable Council Policy and the Redding Municipal Code.

Re: 4.1(c)--Approve and Authorize the Mayor to Sign the Master Service Agreement with the Redding Ranche Page 2
Alternative Action
The Council could choose not to approve one or both agreements and provide alternate direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
On February 4, 2025, Council approved and issued a “Will Serve” letter to the Redding Rancheria and RRUCO agreeing to provide utility service to the new Health Village, currently under construction. The Health Village will be a benefit to Tribal members and the community at large. The City’s Electric Utility and Public Works Departments have reviewed the project’s demands and have determined that the City has the capacity to serve. The utility service is subject to execution of agreements which are the subject of this staff report. The two agreements are summarized below:

Master Service Agreement (MSA)
The MSA establishes a 25-year framework for the provision of City water, wastewater, and solid waste services to the Redding Rancheria Tribal Lands. Key elements include:
• Maintaining compatibility with state and federal regulatory requirements, including Clean Water Act discharge standards.
• Providing indemnification, insurance, and security requirements to protect City operations.
• An annual $100,000 payment by the Redding Rancheria to offset City service impacts.

This obligation ceases if the Redding Rancheria relocates the Win-River Casino and Hotel to the Strawberry Fields property.

Distribution Utility Services Agreement (DUSA)
The DUSA, also structured as a 25-year agreement, governs electric service provision between the City’s Electric Utility and RRUCO. Key elements include:
• Service delivery at two master meter interconnection points identified in the agreement. • Monthly metering, billing, and reporting by the City, with responsibility for sub-meter operations and collections retained by RRUCO.
• City provision of service restoration and construction services upon request, billed at standard labor and material rates.
• Requirements for RRUCO to maintain its distribution facilities in accordance with City and industry standards, including compliance with the National Electric Code and California Public Utility Commission General Orders.
• Standard City fees, late payment penalties, and collection procedures applying to the Rancheria’s utility accounts.

Together, these two agreements ensure that the Redding Rancheria will continue to receive reliable municipal services in a manner consistent with City policy, while providing equitable financial contributions to offset service impacts.

Re: 4.1(c)--Approve and Authorize the Mayor to Sign the Master Service Agreement with the Redding Ranche Page 3
Environmental Review
Staff has reviewed the action and determined it is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) – Common Sense Exemption. CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The existing Master Service Agreement will be replaced with a new Master Service Agreement (attached) that expands existing utility services (water and waste water) and adds new solid waste service to the Redding Rancheria’s facilities, including the Redding Rancheria Tribal Health Village. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

Council Priority/City Manager Goals
• This is a routine operational item.

Re: Will Serve Letter for Electric, Water, and Wastewater Services for the Tribal Health Village Dear Ms. Edwards,
This letter serves to confirm the City of Redding’s (City) commitment to providing electric, water, and wastewater services to Redding Rancheria for the soon-to-be-constructed Tribal Health Village “project,” located on Redding Rancheria Road.

After reviewing the project scope and proposed development, the City of Redding Electric, Water, and Wastewater Utility Departments have determined that services can be made available to the site for the project. The City will provide the necessary services upon completion of all required application processes, agreements, and compliance with appropriate standards.

1. Electric Service
The City of Redding Electric Utility will be able to provide electrical service to the project, subject to the usual requirements and procedures for electrical service connection. The existing Distribution Utility Services Agreement between the City and the Redding Rancheria Utility Corporation will be amended to reflect the additional service location and other necessary modifications.

2. Water Service
The City of Redding Water Utility will be able to provide water service to the project, subject to the usual requirements and procedures for water service connection. The existing Master Services Agreement, including any attachments/amendments between the City and the Tribal Council of the Redding Rancheria, will be amended to reflect the additional service location and other necessary modifications.

3. Wastewater Service
The City of Redding Wastewater Utility will be able to provide wastewater services to the project, subject to the usual requirements and procedures for wastewater service connection in compliance with the City’s wastewater treatment and discharge requirements. The existing Master Services Agreement, including any attachments/amendments between the City and the Tribal Council of the Redding Rancheria, will be amended to reflect the additional service location and other necessary modifications.

Please note that this Will Serve letter is based on the current plans and conditions, as presented. Should the scope of the project change, or should any issues arise during the review process, the City may need to revisit and modify the service provisions.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions:
(1) Adopt Resolution approving the 12th Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2025- 049 re-appropriating the state grant funds in the amount of $0; (2) Find that appropriating grant funding is not considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act. Each project has been individually evaluated for CEQA compliance; and
(3) Find that appropriating grant funding is exempt under the National Environmental Policy Act under Title 24 CFR 58.34(a)(3) and each of the projects has been reviewed and is exempt from further federal environmental review requirements.

Fiscal Impact
The City of Redding’s (City) Housing Division (Housing) received four grants from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) that were appropriated in the Housing Division’s current biennial budget cycle. The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) – Disaster Recovery (DR) Mitigation (MIT), Planning Public Service (PPS) and Resilient Infrastructure Program (RIP) grants received are detailed as follows:
• CDBG-DR MIT PPS – Risk Assessment ($150,000)
• CDBG-DR MIT PPS – Storm Drain Master Plan Update ($1,000,000) • CDBG-DR MIT RIP – Wildfire Mitigation ($357,149.53)
• CDBG-DR MIT PPS – Community Outreach ($1,500,000)
The requested resolution would move appropriations for grant revenues and expenses into various other City departments that will complete grant funded activities. A portion of the administrative funds for each grant will remain in Housing to carry out grant monitoring, billing, and oversight functions.

Packet Pg. 118
Report to Redding City Council October 2, 2025
Re: 4.2(a)--Adopt Reso Authorizing Acceptance & Appropriation of CDBG DR grants Page 2 As the grants operate on a reimbursement basis, departments will initially fund eligible expenses, with reimbursement subsequently provided by HCD. While processing times may vary, HCD typically issues reimbursements within approximately two months of submission. No negative fiscal impact is anticipated.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could decline the re-appropriation request and provide alternate direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
On March 19, 2024, City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the submission of the MITRIP application in the amount of $357,150 to HCD. These funds will clear dense vegetation and combustible materials to reduce fuel loads on City-owned properties. Targeted areas include census tracts 105 and 106.01 which includes 26 vacant City-owned lots along the north side of Linden Avenue and adjacent to Mercy Hospital, a 22-acre undeveloped parcel north of Benton Airpark, and approximately 211 acres that surround the south and west sides of Benton Airpark.

On July 16, 2024, City Council adopted a resolution authorizing staff to submit the MIT-PPS grant application for $2,650,000. MIT-PPS funds are earmarked for three key projects:

1. Updating the City’s Storm Drain Master Plan (SDMP):

In 1993, the City completed a SDMP that studied all major drainage basins in the City and specifically took a detailed look at the effects of post-1985 development on flood levels within the City. This study was independent of other studies prepared by FEMA.

In most instances, the SDMP determined that flood elevations would be higher than those levels proposed by FEMA. Given the age of the SDMP, and the requirement to update this plan by the Public Safety and the Community Development Design Elements of the General Plan, the City requested and was awarded $1,000,000 to update it.

2. Redding Fire Department’s (RFD) Risk Assessment, Standards of Cover, and Strategic Plan (RFD Planning Documents):

The RFD Planning Documents assess current operational capabilities, identifying service gaps, and establishes performance benchmarks to ensure proper emergency response within RFD’s jurisdiction. This analysis will assist RFD in equitably providing modern fire and emergency services within the City. The grant amount for this project is $150,000.

3. Community Outreach Program
The final project involves the development and implementation of a Community Outreach Program focused on strategic, high-impact activities that mitigate disaster risks and reduce future losses. This initiative will include a comprehensive education, outreach, and capacity-building campaign centered on wildfire preparedness and prevention. Key topics will include fuel modification, establishing and maintaining defensible space, home hardening techniques, evacuation preparedness, and safe fire Packet Pg. 119
Report to Redding City Council October 2, 2025
Re: 4.2(a)--Adopt Reso Authorizing Acceptance & Appropriation of CDBG DR grants Page 3 practices. These efforts will align with priorities outlined in the City’s Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and Community Wildfire Protection Plan. The City was awarded $1,500,000 in grant funds for this Community Outreach Program.

The attached Resolution removes previously approved budgets for each project from Housing and in turn, appropriates grant funds to each respective department including the Police Department, Fire Department, Parks Department, Public Works, Geographic Information Systems, and Code Enforcement.

Environmental Review
The allocation of grant funding is not considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The MIT-RIP Fuel Mitigation Project has been determined to be categorically exempt from CEQA under Sections 15301 (Existing Facilities) and 15304 (Minor Alterations to Land). Similarly, the MIT-PPS projects are exempt under Section 15061(b)(3), as it can be seen with certainty that they will have no potential to cause a significant effect on the environment.

Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), administrative and management activities—such as allocating grant funding—are considered exempt and require no further action. A separate environmental review has been conducted for each project and each of the projects is exempt from further federal environmental review requirements.

Council Priority/City Manager Goals
• Government of the 21st Century - “Be relevant and proactive to the opportunities and challenges of today’s residents and workforce. Anticipate the future to make better decisions today.”
• Economic Development - “Facilitate and become a catalyst for economic development in Redding to create jobs, retain current businesses and attract new ones, and encourage investment in the community.”

Re: 4.2(a)--Notice of Intent to Apply for CDBG MIT PPS Grant Funding Page 2 Background/Analysis
The State of California Housing and Community Development is committed to helping communities recover after disasters by administering special federal funds for mitigation purposes.

MIT-PPS Program funds are available to assist eligible local jurisdictions with mitigation-related planning and public services needs to support risk reduction from wildfire, flooding, and earthquake hazards.

Re: 4.2(a)--Notice of Intent to Apply for CDBG MIT RIP and PPS Grant Funding Page 2 Alternative Action
The City Council could decline to adopt the resolutions of the CDBG MIT-PPS or MIT-RIP Programs and staff would not apply for either grant opportunity.

Background/Analysis
The State of California Housing and Community Development is committed to helping communities recover after disasters by administering special federal funds for both recovery and mitigation purposes. The purpose of the CDBG MIT-RIP is to assist local jurisdictions with hazard mitigation (wildfire, flooding and earthquake) to infrastructure.

The City of Redding (City) has been identified as an eligible jurisdiction for the MIT-RIP Funds due to the 2018 Carr Fire. The project being proposed is strategically aligned to lessen the impacts of a future fire originating or reaching areas housing critical infrastructure. The funds can be used to clear dense vegetation and remove combustibles to reduce fuel load on Cityowned property. The proposed outcome of this project is to bring hazardous fuels in targeted areas (census tracts 105 and 106.01) to a level that the City can maintain with existing allocated funds. If awarded, staff proposes to perform work on 26 vacant City-owned lots along the north side of Linden Avenue. This area has an immediate proximity to Mercy Hospital, a 22-acre vacant parcel to the north of Benton Airpark, and approximately 211 acres of land encompassing the south and west areas of Benton Airpark.

In addition to the MIT-RIP grant request, the MIT-PPS Program funds are available to assist eligible local jurisdictions with mitigation-related planning and public services needs to support risk reduction from wildfire, flooding, and earthquake hazards. MIT-PPS funds may be used to create projects that address risks to community lifelines that support human health and safety and provide mitigation for individual and community-based systems. Staff proposes to apply for up to $2,000,000, and if awarded, partner with multiple City departments to develop a community outreach program and mitigation planning activities designed to lessen the future risk of wildfire.

Environmental Review
Applying for grant funding is not considered a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Any project that is developed will be reviewed for CEQA compliance once the details are known.

Under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), administrative and management activities such as applying for grant funding are considered exempt activities and no further action is required. Any construction projects will be reviewed for NEPA requirements if awarded funding by the State of California.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the First Amendment (C-10028) to the contract with Emergency Vehicle Outfitting Company in an amount not-to-exceed $200,000, annually, for two years for outfitting vehicles with the needed equipment.

Fiscal Impact
The City of Redding Police Department (RPD) will use previously allocated funds to RPD’s Rolling Stock Replacement Fund to outfit the vehicles. Pursuant to Council Policy 416, staff will administratively cover contract obligations, as needed. There is no additional impact to the General Fund.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose to not authorize extending the agreement with Emergency Vehicle Outfitting Company (EVOC) for outfitting vehicles and provide staff with alternative direction.

Background/Analysis
On August 15, 2023, Council authorized RPD to enter into a sole-source agreement with EVOC for outfitting RPD vehicles with the necessary equipment (previous staff report attached.) The agreement expired on July 31, 2025, and RPD would like to extend for an additional two years.

When RPD requested to sole-source with EVOC, there were limited viable options for the needed services. RPD had gone out to bid in 2022 for the services and received four bids, all but one being out of the Redding area. The low bid was received from a company out of Chico who was awarded the bid to outfit seven vehicles. While the company came highly recommended, after they completed five vehicles, the contract was cancelled due to many issues with the work.

Re: 4.9(a)--Extension of Contract Agreement with EVOC Page 2 Since this time, EVOC has been outfitting all of RPD’s vehicles.

While it is the normal policy to go out to bid for these services, the status of qualified and available vendors has not seen any significant changes to who provides these services. EVOC is a local vendor and has provided RPD with excellent service. Extending this agreement for an additional two-year period provides RPD with consistent services with a local vendor. At the end of this term, RPD anticipates going out to bid to determine if there are other vendors who are qualified to do this work.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize the Redding Police Department to sole source an agreement with Emergency Vehicle Outfitting Company in the amount not to exceed $200,000 annually, for two years to outfit vehicles with the needed equipment.

Fiscal Impact
Redding Police Department (RPD) will use a portion of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to outfit patrol vehicles. There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund.

Alternative Action
The City Council could choose to not authorize entering into an agreement with Emergency Vehicle Outfitting Company (EVOC) for outfitting vehicles and provide staff with alternative direction.

Background/Analysis
Just as it has been difficult to purchase vehicles over the last several years, it has also been extremely difficult to have vehicles outfitted in a timely manner. While some of the delays have been due to supply chain issues caused by COVID-19, it has also been difficult to find reliable installers. In April 2022, RPD went out to bid for vehicle outfitting of seven vehicles and received four bids. The award was given to a company out of Chico, CA. While this company came highly recommended, there were several issues with the installation of the equipment that delayed vehicles being completed and put into service. In June 2023, after five of the seven vehicles were completed, it was decided to terminate the contract with them and find another resource to complete the last two of this lot. Since that time, RPD has acquired two additional vehicles that need outfitting. In addition, RPD anticipates purchasing a large number of vehicles that will need to be outfitted. With the length of time it takes to receive the new vehicles, it is MEETING DATE: August 15, 2023

necessary to establish a vendor who can provide the necessary work in a timely manner. The estimate of work that currently needs to be completed totals approximately $70,000. It is estimated that outfitting the additional vehicles to be purchased over the next several years could total as much as $200,000.

One of the bids received in April 2022 was from EVOC, the only local bidder. At the time of the bid request, EVOC was a fairly new business and did not have the resources to be competitive with the other bidders. Since that time, EVOC has established their business and have the capacity to provide the services that are needed. Over the last year, EVOC has successfully completed several small jobs for RPD as well as several other City departments and has proven their ability to do the work. RPD would like to sole source to EVOC for the next two years in an annual amount not to exceed $200,000. The terms of the agreement would be set for the two-year period at $100 per hour for labor and discounted prices off the manufacturer’s suggested retail prices (MSRP) as outlined on the attached fee schedule. After the two years, RPD would go back out to bid to determine if the market has changed for these services. While it is not the normal practice to sole source this work, authorizing this agreement will allow RPD to ensure the services are available when needed with a local company.

Entering into this contract is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act, therefore, no further action is required at this time.

Re: 9.11(g)--Declare Emergency for the South Street Water Main ER Project Page 2 Project cost components are estimates and some shifting of the project development, construction management, and construction contingency funds may be necessary to balance the project within the approved budget.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to authorize the award of an emergency contract, and instead have staff prepare plans and specifications to award a contract to the low bidder in accordance with state and local contracting procedures. This would result in the broken water main remaining out of service through the summer of 2025 and during peak water demands which could significantly reduce reliability of the water system for City customers and fire flows in the area. Or, the Council could provide alterative direction to staff.

Background/Analysis
On December 9, 2024, a 12-inch, cast-iron, water main in South Street broke beneath the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) tracks. The corrugated steel casing under the UPRR tracks that surrounds the water main also broke, resulting in erosion and voids beneath the railroad tracks.

City crews quickly made temporary repairs to close water valves and isolate the broken section of water main. They also backfilled voids in the soil caused by the break and coordinated with UPRR for repair of the railroad tracks in the area. The railroad tracks were quickly restored to normal operation, but because the pipeline break was beneath the tracks and the steel casing failed, City crews were unable to repair the water main and this segment of piping remains out of service.

Since both the water main and the casing failed beneath the railroad tracks, simply pulling a new pipe through the existing casing is not feasible. To adequately repair this main, staff intends to design for a jack and bore installation of a new steel casing and ductile iron water main, sized to convey peak flows in accordance with the City’s design standards, across the UPRR right-of-way for connection to the existing main piping on both sides.

Computer modeling of the City’s water system indicates that there should not be issues with the South Street water main remaining out of service through the winter and early spring, when water demands are relatively low. However, during the summer months and peak water demands, this main conveys significant flows eastward and its outage would have substantial impacts. If it remains out of service through the summer then peak flows would need to be conveyed through alternate routes and water mains, which will increase flow velocities, stress, and potential for surges and damage to other aging water mains in the downtown area.

If the South Street main remains out of service through the summer months, then there are several areas where increased flow velocities and potential for further pipeline damage are a concern. One, in particular, is another 12-inch water main crossing the UPRR tracks along Shasta Street, approximately one-half-mile north of the South Street water main break. The Shasta Street water main was installed in 1958 and is a cast iron pipe, similar to the South Street main that broke. The City has plans to replace the Shasta Street main with a separate capital improvement project in the near future because of concerns with its reliability. Recently, on June 19, 2024, it also had a break, just three blocks west of its railroad crossing. With the South Street water main out of service, flows through the Shasta Street main would increase to velocities above the maximum allowed by many agencies and recommended maximum in the City’s Water Master Plan. The increased flow velocities would lead to additional stress and potential for surges in the Shasta Street main that will increase the risk of additional failures.

Packet Pg. 152 Attachment: Previous Staff Report February 4, 2025 (4.11(a)--Update for Emergency Repair to South Street Water Main ER Project) Report to Redding City Council January 29, 2025
Re: 9.11(g)--Declare Emergency for the South Street Water Main ER Project Page 3 The South Street water main provides critical redundancy for the Shasta Street main and other water mains in the area. While the South Street main remains out of service, this critical redundancy is not available. The lack of redundancy, combined with the increased velocities and stress to other aging mains where there are already concerns of reliability, including in Shasta Street, put the City at a much higher risk for additional water main failures that would have major impacts on the water system.

To provide necessary redundancy in the water system and mitigate the risks of additional pipeline breaks, disruptions in service, potential damage to infrastructure and property, and a loss of available storage and fire flow, staff recommends that the South Street Main be repaired as soon as possible and before the high water demands in the summer of 2025. Staff has considered proceeding with typical design and bid process for a capital improvement project; however, this process would likely require a minimum of seven months in order to prepare the bid package, obtain UPRR permits, advertise for bids, and award a contract for construction. At that point, the contractor would still need to order and procure materials, which would result in the construction work not starting until late 2025. This timeline is substandard and the repairs would not be completed prior to the high impact and risk period during the summer.

The broken water main presents potential impacts to public health, property and safety.

Therefore, staff proposes an emergency contract to repair and replace the broken water main in South Street beneath the UPRR crossing. If approved, staff estimates the construction will be complete in May 2025, before the high water demands in the summer and greatest risks occur.

It is noted that the Public Contract Code (PCC) (Section 20168) provides that the local government’s legislative body may pass a resolution by a four-fifths vote of its members declaring that the public interest and necessity demand the immediate expenditure of public money to safeguard life, health and property. Further, the PCC (Section 22050) provides that “in case of emergency, a public agency, pursuant to a four-fifths vote of its governing body, may repair or replace a public facility, take any directly related and immediate action required by that emergency, and procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes without giving notice for bids to let contracts.”
It is in the public’s interest and necessity to repair the broken water main in South Street to ensure reliability of the water system, protection of property and the public’s health and safety.

The attached Resolution has been approved as to form by the City Attorney.

Environmental Review
Staff has determined that the project is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15269(b) – Emergency Projects. Section 15269(b) includes emergency repairs to publicly and privately-owned service facilities necessary to maintain service essential to the public health, safety, or welfare. The emergency repair and replacement will occur in areas of previous disturbance, and the repairs are necessary to maintain service essential to public health.

WHEREAS, City crews isolated the broken segment of piping but are unable to repair it, due to its location under the UPRR tracks, and the pipe remains out of service; and WHEREAS, proper water infrastructure is critical for public health, safety, and fire protection; and
WHEREAS, if not repaired before high water demands during the summer months, there will be a lack of redundancy in the water system that will result in higher flow velocities, stress, and potential for surges in other water mains, increasing potential for additional pipeline failures; and WHEREAS, additional pipeline failures would result in disruptions in service, potential damage to associated public and adjacent private infrastructure, and a significant decrease in available water storage and fire flows; and
WHEREAS, a competitive solicitation for bids is anticipated to require at least seven (7) months to design, advertise for bids, and award a contract for construction, after which construction would not occur until the autumn of 2025, failing to complete the necessary repairs until after the summer and highest risk period for additional pipeline damage or failures, water pressure losses, and deficient fire flows; and
WHEREAS, continued outage of the water main will significantly reduce the reliability of water systems to provide adequate pressures and fire flows, which threatens the safety of the public and properties in the downtown area; and
WHEREAS, the continued isolation and outage of the broken water main in South Street to accommodate the delay necessary for the competitive bidding process would not mitigate or eliminate the threat to persons and property;

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions related to the purchase of one 2026 Caterpillar 910 Loader for the City of Redding Solid Waste Utility:
(1) Authorize the purchase using Sourcewell contract pricing, with a net delivered cost of $247,254.83 including all applicable taxes and fees; and (2) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to approve future pricing adjustments, terms, and policy changes as needed due to inflation and unstable economic conditions up to a total of $30,000.

Fiscal Impact
Funding for the acquisition of this unit will come from the Solid Waste rolling stock account.

Solid Waste currently has $1,525,864 in the rolling stock account.

Alternative Action
The City Council may choose to not authorize the purchase using the Sourcewell contract and direct staff to use the competitive bid process.

Background/Analysis
The City of Redding (City) performs processing and sorting of recycling commodities collected through both curbside and self-haul to the Transfer Station facility. The operations at the City’s Transfer Station and Recycling Facility are conducted six days per week. Staff uses the loader for moving materials on the transfer station floor into a stock pile, to load the feed belt for the Materials Recycling Facility (MRF) machine, to remove large or heavy recyclable items from the trash pile, and to load processed organic materials (compost, fines, etc.) into customer vehicles or trailers.

Report to Redding City Council September 30, 2025
Re: 4.11(b)--Purchase One Caterpillar 910 Loader Page 2 Replacing this unit aligns with the adopted Rolling Stock Plan for the Solid Waste Utility. Due to the unit reaching the end of its expected lifecycle, staff planned for its replacement, which is based on the cumulative cost of the repairs and maintenance. Currently, with the increase in tonnage over the last two years, the daily run time has increased for this loader causing wear and tear to occur faster than anticipated. The current loader is a 2008 model with 6,254 hours of service, equating to 375,240 miles based on an industry excepted conversion factor of 60 miles per operating hour. Furthermore, given the existing loader’s current condition, it is unable to operate for a full day, ultimately affecting production. Replacing the current equipment will help the City meet California Air Resources Board (CARB) compliance for off-road equipment since the current loader is equipped with a tier 1 motor while the loader will be equipped with a tier 4 motor, in compliance with CARB requirements.

Caterpillar (CAT) Loaders are available under a Sourcewell competitively bid contract.

Sourcewell develops national competitive solicitations that meet or exceed local standards, and offers its members the benefits derived from cooperative purchasing. Using the Sourcewell cooperative contract to purchase a 2026 Caterpillar 910 Loader saves significant staff time that would otherwise be needed to prepare bid specifications and solicit individual quotations from vendors. The City also receives a significant price discount due to economies of scale realized through the volume of purchases on a multi-agency cooperative contract. With this particular purchase, Sourcewell gives a 23 percent discount, equating to over $47,000 in savings to the Solid Waste Utility.

For this model of loader, CAT does not offer the type of solid tires and bucket (open grapple) as a standard option. Peterson Tractor has vendors whom supply these non-standard items, which meet the specifications required for work in the Transfer Station for an additional cost of $61,665.15. Peterson Tractor will install these items prior to delivery of the machine. However, these items are not part of the Sourcewell contract and do not receive a discount per the contract.

In addition to the benefits of having solid tires in a solid waste environment, there are other benefits and efficiencies in standardizing these items that include:
• As they are currently in use on another loader at the Transfer Station - these parts would match the existing loader, so the Fleet Maintenance Division is better prepared for repairs and they are familiar with the aftermarket parts;
• Having standardized equipment also provides operational efficiencies in training for the operators of the machinery and training for the maintenance staff servicing the equipment; and
• Frequent services such as oil changes and air filter replacements are streamlined when equipment is standardized and reduces the need for additional parts inventory. • This new unit would also serve as back up to the primary unit used at the MRF.

The CAT 910 Loader being requested has performed very well at the Transfer Station, where loaders from other manufacturers have not performed as well under the same conditions.

Environmental Review
This activity, purchasing, is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required.

Typically, a Participating Entity will issue an order directly to Participating Dealers with payments made to the Participating Dealers. If a Participating Entity issues a purchase order, it may use its own forms, but the purchase order should clearly note the applicable Sourcewell contract number. All Participating Entity orders under this Contract must be issued prior to expiration or cancellation of this Contract; however, Supplier performance, Participating Entity payment obligations, and any applicable warranty periods or other Supplier or Participating Entity obligations may extend beyond the term of this Contract.

Supplier’s acceptable forms of payment are included in its attached Proposal. Participating Entities will be solely responsible for payment and Sourcewell will have no liability for any unpaid invoice of any Participating Entity.

Additional terms and conditions to a purchase order, or other required transaction documentation, may be negotiated between a Participating Entity and Supplier’s Participating Dealer, such as job or industry-specific requirements, legal requirements (e.g., affirmative action or immigration status requirements), or specific local policy requirements. Some Participating Entities may require the use of a Participating Addendum, the terms of which will be negotiated directly between the Participating Entity and Supplier’s Participating Dealer or its authorized dealers, distributors, or resellers, as applicable. Any negotiated additional terms and conditions must never be less favorable to the Participating Entity than what is contained in this Contract.

C. SPECIALIZED SERVICE REQUIREMENTS. In the event that the Participating Entity requires service or specialized performance requirements not addressed in this Contract (such as ecommerce specifications, specialized delivery requirements, or other specifications and requirements), the Participating Entity and the Supplier may enter into a separate, standalone agreement, apart from this Contract. Sourcewell, including its agents and employees, will not be made a party to a claim for breach of such agreement.

In 1925, when Holt and Best merged to form their new tractor company, they used the name so familiar to people around the world: Caterpillar. The Caterpillar Tractor Company is today known as Caterpillar Inc.

With 2021 sales and revenues of $51.0 billion, Caterpillar Inc. is the world’s leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, off-highway diesel and natural gas engines, industrial gas turbines and diesel-electric locomotives. For nearly 100 years, we’ve been helping customers build a better, more sustainable world and are committed and contributing to a reduced-carbon future. Our innovative products and services, backed by our global dealer network, provide exceptional value that helps customers succeed. Caterpillar does business on every continent, principally operating through three primary segments – Construction Industries, Resource Industries and Energy & Transportation – and providing financing and related services through our Financial Products segment.

party?
Caterpillar is a world class manufacturer which distributes products through a vast and capable independent dealer network. Our dealers are strong independently owned companies and in North America alone our 47 dealers have a combined net worth of billions of dollars. Their large valuation is a competitive advantage because it allows them to have the infrastructure to support customers regardless of location, industry, fleet size, or application.

Another advantage of independently owned dealers is that they know their customers and market well. They tailor their services specifically to their customers' needs.

Although we will sign this contract as a manufacturer, our Cat dealers will be given the
opportunity to avail themselves of the opportunity presented by the contract and will execute all the transactions with governmental customers as they do today. This includes but is not limited to consultation, quoting, accepting payment, delivery, warranty support, parts sales, and service.

Caterpillar dealers heartily embrace the other Sourcewell contracts currently available to them (032119-CAT, 092222-CAT, 062320-CAT, 060122-CAT). They have all been trained on contract usage. In fact, the current Heavy Equipment contract is leveraged by
95% of our dealers in North America. Caterpillar offers specific discounts to Sourcewell members. By using any Sourcewell Contract, our dealers agree to honor those discounts.

pursuit of the business contemplated by this
RFP.

Caterpillar and its subsidiaries operate across the globe in a variety of markets that require Caterpillar to adhere to all locally mandated laws and regulations in order to do business. With regards to the territories covered by this RFP, Caterpillar will comply with applicable laws in order to do business in the territories described herein.

Please refer to our directory listing of Cat dealer locations and our easy to view locations map in the attached "Additional Documents" zip file. Cat dealers are independently-owned. Each dealer has multiple branches and a mobile service fleet than can serve customers regardless of location. These are full physical locations our governmental customers can use.

Because of the size of Cat dealers, they are exceptionally capable to serve governmental customers. Dealers have trained specialists that cover many industries including heavy equipment.

Collectively, Cat dealers' large net worth permits them to stock a high volume of replacement parts - allowing governmental customers the fastest turnaround on parts availability and repair time. Cat dealers recognize the importance of governmental business to their overall success and they each have one or more governmental specialists whose job it is to serve governmental agencies well.

3) After the machine has been delivered, the dealer, as part of their normal process, includes the member number when filing their sales claims with Caterpillar. 4) At month's end, Caterpillar aggregates these reports and sends the sales information quarterly to Sourcewell along with the administrative fee.

Sourcewell is a well-respected contracting agency within the public procurement industry. It is important, in the event of an award, that our products and logos be included in Sourcewell marketing and website. We believe that the most important role that Sourcewell can play in marketing our contract and products, is to market themselves and promote contract purchasing across the industry.

In the event of an award, Caterpillar will put high priority in building awareness and enthusiasm within our dealer network and customer base to leverage the Sourcewell contract as our go to market strategy.

available through an e-procurement
ordering process? If so, describe your
e-procurement system and how
governmental and educational
customers have used it.

We do offer a e-procurement ordering process for parts via parts.cat.com. We can also integrate into a variety of procurement systems for high volume customers.

Our wide machine portfolio and multiple configurations per machine model allows us to provide the best machine for the customer need. Our Cat dealers are trained to configure our equipment and advise the customer on the best machine and configuration for their application. Therefore, a consultative salesperson is integral in this process, and we do not use an e-procurement machine ordering process.

Caterpillar has long drawn on the diversity of its people as a source of innovation and competitive advantage. We are proud that our people come from across the globe, with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives. Despite our differences – in geography, culture, language and business – we are one Caterpillar, one company united by these common principles with a shared commitment to the highest standards of conduct.

For example: Foley Equipment, a Cat® dealer, with territory primarily in Kansas and Missouri, is woman owned. In addition to Foley equipment, there are 31 other women in our North American dealer network who hold the titles of President, Vice President or Director.

One of the more recognized initiatives within Caterpillar's Global Supply Network Division is the Caterpillar Inc. Proprietary Information Supplier Diversity Program which spurs economic growth by increasing business opportunities to minority-owned, women-owned, veteran and service disabled veteran-owned, small disadvantaged businesses and those certified in HUBZones, all while ensuring expectations are met with regards to quality, velocity, capacity, and cost. Currently more than 37% of our direct and indirect purchasing is conducted with suppliers in these categories.

Caterpillar is a proud member of the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC). We also use the System for Aware Management (SAM), SBA, and NMSDC databases to locate SDB, VOSB, SDVOSB and HUBZone suppliers.

Supplier Diversity is discussed with Global Supply Network Division leadership during the Monthly Operating Results Review meetings. This in turn forces accountability for supplier inclusion by measuring drivers, such as the number of sourcing projects, which include Divers Suppliers and the values of the projects in which they participate. The goal is to create greater transparency to determine which teams are creating inclusive environments and which are not.

BEST OVERALL VALUE / LOWEST LIFE CYCLE COST:

Cat products deliver the best value for the money. While we rarely have the lowest initial purchase price, we are happy to demonstrate to customers that our machines offer the lowest overall owning and operating costs when factors such as fuel efficiency, repair frequency, productivity, and resale value are factored in. We believe that government agencies are tasked to be the best stewards of taxpayer funds and our products can prove that they are the best solution. Sourcewell members are in the best position to allow these discussions to take place in contrast to a local bid situation where the focus is often only on initial price.

CAT SAFETY SERVICES / SAFETY FEATURES:

In addition to the tangible, measurable aspects of the life cycle cost equation, we also bring our focus on safety to every product that we manufacture. Quantifying a human life or debilitating injury is impossible, but each machine has industry-leading features that strive to minimize the possibility for accidents.

In addition to built-in safety features, we also offer products and services that are unique in the industry.

Cat Safety Services include, but are not limited to, the following:

Safety Perception Survey - Used to establish a baseline safety-culture assessment by measuring employee perceptions and gaps in beliefs between management and employees on the front line across 20 Safety Culture Indicators.

Safety Leadership Assessment - Used to measure individual safety leadership capability around four domains of safety leadership.

Worksite Assessment - Compares onsite observations of safety practices and employee interview data to the documented processes and procedures.

Continuous Improvement Process - Involving all levels of the organization to generate engagement, involvement, and ownership in the safety improvement process.

Training - can be conducted with e-learning courses on http://safelyhome.cat.com, instructorled training products or as Supplier-facilitated workshops. Topics available include, but are not limited to, safety culture, effective communication, supervisor safety training, recognition, etc.

Fleet Management & Services through Caterpillar Job Site Solutions:

We leverage the power of Caterpillar and our dealers by designing innovative solutions that solve customer problems and that have a positive impact on their bottom line. We approach each site differently, striving to deliver exactly what’s needed — no more, no less.

Every solution includes a unique mix of Caterpillar and dealer capabilities using industry best products, technology, services and expertise necessary to meet the customer’s definition of success. The goal is to leave customers better off tomorrow than they are today.

More solutions are available and we encourage members and dealers to explore all options.
1) Equipment Protection Plans (EPP): After the initial warranty period ends, members may choose to purchase additional protection plans to reduce their exposure to unplanned costs. These policies are written based on months and hours of operation. There are four standard levels of coverage:
1) Powertrain
2) Powertrain + Hydraulics
3) Powertrain + Hydraulics + Technology
4) Premier
A description of all these options is included in the attached Equipment Protection Plans document. EPP can be purchased at the same time as the machine purchase, or anytime before the standard warranty expires. 2) Customer Value Agreements (CVA's):

A member may choose to enter into an agreement with their Cat dealer to perform routine maintenance and/or repairs. These contracts are customizable based on member needs.

The selling Cat dealer can take responsibility for some or all the required service and maintenance needs to allow the agency to gain efficiency by focusing on the performance demands more than maintenance. CVA's are a useful tool to manage expenses. CVAs can be purchased at the same time as the machine purchase, or anytime after. Cat Financial also offers CVAs, which can be performed by Cat dealers in the United States, and are particularly helpful for customers who move their machine fleet to multiple locations which may have different servicing Cat dealers. *

Base machines must be properly configured with other mandatory and optional items from the price list before they are considered operational. For the execution of the agreement we will ask our Cat dealer and Sourcewell member to use the Caterpillar price list that is current at the time of the quote. Dealers, in consultation with the member, will configure the machine to the desired specifications and apply the stated list discount to that configured list price amount. Dealer and members should remember to factor in any expected price increases if a machine will be built to order. The pricing document, in the applicable pricing document attachment section, shows the list discount offered for each new machine.

Additionally, we are pleased to offer a list discount of 15% off all products and consulting services under Cat Safety Services. *
58 Quantify the pricing discount represented by the pricing proposal in this response. For example, if the pricing in your response represents a percentage discount from
MSRP or list, state the percentage or percentage range.

Pricing in this proposal is a percentage discount from list on current machine and work tools list prices. Our discount range varies between 3 - 34% off of the list price depending on the product family or model.
*
59 Describe any quantity or volume discounts or rebate
programs that you offer.

Our dealers are empowered to consider purchase order volume, repeat purchases, etc. They may offer members additional discounts and /or services at their discretion.
*
60 Propose a method of facilitating “sourced” products or related services, which may be referred to as “open
market” items or “nonstandard options”. For example, you may supply such items “at cost” or “at cost plus a
percentage,” or you may supply a quote for each such
request.

Sourced goods / Open Market Items are available to members from Cat dealers. The prices for these good or services will represent fair marketing value and will be determined between the member and the selling dealer. We encourage our dealers and members to use these options as it facilitates complimentary products and streamlines the procurement process. Customers and dealers are responsible for including their Sourcewell member numbers on all documentation related to these
purchases. Caterpillar Inc. is not a party to these sales and is exempted from including them in quarterly reports.

For audits, inclusion of a customer's Sourcewell member number on the PO and /or invoice shall be deemed sufficient.
*
61 Identify any element of the total cost of acquisition that is NOT included in the pricing submitted with your response.

This includes all additional charges associated with a
purchase that are not directly identified as freight or shipping charges. For example, list costs for items like predelivery inspection, installation, set up, mandatory training, or initial inspection. Identify any parties that impose such costs and their relationship to the Proposer.

Machines are unique in their requirements for preparation prior to use. Some may require local final assembly due to their large size others may have locally installed options (fire suppression, beacons, auto lube systems for example). When a dealer issues a quote for a machine, any dealer costs (like pre-delivery inspection, installation, set up, training, etc.) will be itemized separately and are not subject to the Caterpillar list discount for Sourcewell members. *
62 If freight, delivery, or shipping is an additional cost to the Sourcewell participating entity, describe in detail the complete freight, shipping, and delivery program.

There is no additional cost to members who choose to pick up their machines from the Cat dealer. Dealers may charge fees for delivery to the Sourcewell member's location.
*
63 Specifically describe freight, shipping, and delivery terms or programs available for Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, or any
offshore delivery.

Just as for members in the 48 contiguous states, there is no additional cost to members who choose to pick up their machine from their Cat dealer. Dealers may charge fees for delivery to the Sourcewell members' location.
*
64 Describe any unique distribution and/or delivery methods or options offered in your proposal.

Machines are large purchases and if there are unique Sourcewell member requirements our dealers will be happy to discuss on a case by case basis.

Item Question Response *
66 Specifically describe any self-audit process or program that you plan to employ to verify compliance with your proposed Contract with Sourcewell. This process includes ensuring that Sourcewell participating entities obtain the proper pricing, that the Vendor reports all sales under the Contract each quarter, and that the Vendor remits the proper administrative fee to Sourcewell. Provide sufficient detail to support your ability to report quarterly sales to Sourcewell as described in the Contract template.

We plan to continue our very robust process to ensure
reporting speed, accuracy, and contract compliance.

Caterpillar and our Cat dealers have very close and trusting relationships. Our dealers are long-established, and the current process (under contract #032119-CAT) is working well. 1) To ensure pricing accuracy, we maintain our current
Sourcewell customer discount sheet on our dealer facing pricing pages. Dealers integrate these numbers automatically in their quoting software.
2) To ensure new machines and work tool sales are
recorded properly, we use our post-sale credit system. In a nutshell, this means that we
corporately support the pricing offered in this contract at a level below what's available to other customers. To receive this additional monetary support after the machine is
delivered, dealers must supply the member's name, address, and member number. There is no additional burden or cost to our dealers to use the Sourcewell contract and this is part of the reason for their high engagement and our high reporting accuracy.
3) At month end, we gather the new machine and work tool sales data attributed to Sourcewell and aggregate it for our reporting.
4) After quarter end, we will send the quarterly sales report and administration fee payment to Sourcewell for all items that are subject to the administrative fee.
*
67 If you are awarded a contract, provide a few examples of internal metrics that will be tracked to measure whether you are having success with the contract.

We regularly track the % of sales that are sold using a cooperative contract. We will continue this practice if we are awarded a contract for RFP 011723.
*
68 Identify a proposed administrative fee that you will pay to Sourcewell for facilitating, managing, and promoting the Sourcewell Contract in the event that you are awarded a Contract.  This fee is typically calculated as a percentage of Vendor’s sales under the Contract or as a per-unit fee; it is not a line-item addition to the Member’s cost of goods. (See the RFP and template Contract for additional details.)
Per amendment #1 to Contract #032119-CAT, we will be
pleased to offer an administrative fee of 0.33% of
Caterpillar's list price for each piece of new equipment and serialized work
tools purchased by Sourcewell's Participating Entities.

Caterpillar will pay this fee and will not ask dealers or members to pay the fee.

PROPOSER AFFIDAVIT AND ASSURANCE OF COMPLIANCE
I certify that I am the authorized representative of the Proposer submitting the foregoing Proposal with the legal authority to bind the Proposer to this Affidavit and Assurance of Compliance:

1. The Proposer is submitting this Proposal under its full and complete legal name, and the Proposer legally exists in good standing in the jurisdiction of its residence.

2. The Proposer warrants that the information provided in this Proposal is true, correct, and reliable for purposes of evaluation for contract award.

3. The Proposer, including any person assisting with the creation of this Proposal, has arrived at this Proposal independently and the Proposal has been created without colluding with any other person, company, or parties that have or will submit a proposal under this solicitation; and the Proposal has in all respects been created fairly without any fraud or dishonesty. The Proposer has not directly or indirectly entered into any agreement or arrangement with any person or business in an effort to influence any part of this solicitation or operations of a resulting contract; and the Proposer has not taken any action in restraint of free trade or competitiveness in connection with this solicitation. Additionally, if Proposer has worked with a consultant on the Proposal, the consultant (an individual or a company) has not assisted any other entity that has submitted or will submit a proposal for this solicitation.

4. To the best of its knowledge and belief, and except as otherwise disclosed in the Proposal, there are no relevant facts or circumstances which could give rise to an organizational conflict of interest. An organizational conflict of interest exists when a vendor has an unfair competitive advantage or the vendor’s objectivity in performing the contract is, or might be, impaired.

5. The contents of the Proposal have not been communicated by the Proposer or its employees or agents to any person not an employee or legally authorized agent of the Proposer and will not be communicated to any such persons prior to Due Date of this solicitation.

6. If awarded a contract, the Proposer will provide to Sourcewell Participating Entities the equipment, products, and services in accordance with the terms, conditions, and scope of a resulting contract.

10. The Proposer understands that Sourcewell will reject RFP proposals that are marked "confidential" (or "nonpublic," etc.), either substantially or in their entirety. Under Minnesota Statutes Section 13.591, subdivision 4, all proposals are considered nonpublic data until the evaluation is complete and a Contract is awarded. At that point, proposals become public data. Minnesota Statutes Section 13.37 permits only certain narrowly defined data to be considered a "trade secret," and thus nonpublic data under Minnesota's Data Practices Act.

11. Proposer its employees, agents, and subcontractors are not:

1. Included on the “Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons” list maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the United States Department of the Treasury found at: https://www.treasury.gov/ofac/downloads/sdnlist.pdf;

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions relative to the Magnums Area Remote Sewer Project:
(1) Adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and the Mitigation Monitoring and Environmental Commitment Program; and
(2) Approve the Magnums Area Remote Sewer Project as described, thereby satisfying the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines §15074.

Fiscal Impact
Approval of the Magnums Area Remote Sewer (Project) along with adoption of the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) and the Mitigation Monitoring Program (MMP) allows the project to move toward the final design and construction phases. There is no fiscal impact as a direct result of adopting the MND, MMP, and approving the project.

The project construction costs are estimated to be approximately $3.4 million and has been budgeted through the City of Redding’s (City) Wastewater Utility Fund.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to adopt the MND and the MMP, and not approve the project as described. Without approval, the project would not be able to proceed as a City project, as it would not comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Report to Redding City Council October 1, 2025
Re: 4.11(c)--Consider Approval of the Magnums Area Remote Sewer Project Page 2 Background/Analysis
The project will replace existing sewer lines to address deterioration due to age, lines which require a high level of maintenance, and/or lines which are undersized. Construction activities would span approximately 5,060-feet long across multiple locations, from Mishka Court, Greenback Lane, Calexico Drive, Dickson Drive, E. Keswick Dam Road, Lake Boulevard, Shamrock Street, sections along the back sections of Magnums Way and Guinevere Court and along portions of the railroad.

The project would require trenching, sub-surface pipe bursting, vegetation removal, utility relocation, paving, sign installation, and striping. The sub-surface pipe bursting method will be used to minimize stream impacts in multiple locations. This method will require an excavated pit on each end of the sewer line. The new sewer pipe will be placed in the pit and fed into the existing pipe replacing it in its original alignment.

The majority of work would occur within City right-of-way and utility easement areas; however, temporary permits to enter and construct on adjacent private lands may be needed to conform driveways, replace/relocate utilities, or modify drainage. Permanent right-of-way acquisition would not be required. Staging areas will occur within City right-of-way and on City property, and one-way traffic control will be required for work near roadways.

An Initial Study (IS) was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the CEQA. It describes why the project is being proposed and the potential impacts to the existing environment. The IS shows that the proposed project could have a significant effect on biological resources, but with implementation of mitigation measures, those impacts will be reduced to a level considered less than significant. The mitigation and conservation measures to be implemented are common practices and include, but are not limited to, biological pre-construction surveys, environmental awareness training, impact minimization, and sediment control measures.

Based on the conclusions made in the IS, an MND was prepared. The MND describes the project, including mitigation measures, and makes the determination that there will be no significant effect on the environment provided that the defined mitigation measures are implemented as part of the project. In addition, an MMP has been written and incorporated into the MND (CEQA Section 21081.6). The MMP will be used by City staff, contractors, agencies, and monitoring personnel during and after the project to ensure effective implementation of the adopted mitigation measures outlined in the MND.

The IS/MND/MMP documents were sent to the State Clearinghouse for a 30-day public review period and distribution to pertinent state agencies. They were sent to local resource agencies, the Shasta County Clerk, and posted on the Public Works Department website. A public notice was also sent to landowners in the vicinity of the project and posted in the local newspaper. No comments were received during the public review period.

Environmental Review
The City is the lead agency for the project pursuant to CEQA. As the lead CEQA agency, the Council is authorized to adopt the MND per Redding Municipal Code Section §18.24.070.E and state law. Upon adoption of the MND and approval of the project by the Council, a Notice of Determination will be filed with the Shasta County Clerk’s Office and the State Clearinghouse, completing the environmental review process. The IS/MND is available in the Public Works Department and is currently available online at:

MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION

MAGNUMS AREA REMOTE SEWER PROJECT
(STATE CLEARINGHOUSE NO. 2025-080307)

SUBJECT
Magnums Area Remote Sewer Project

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City of Redding (City) is proposing the Magnums Area Remote Sewer Project in the City of Redding, Shasta County, California. The purpose of the project is to replace existing sewer lines to address deterioration due to age, lines which require a high level of maintenance, and/or lines which are undersized. The project would require trenching, sub-surface pipe bursting, vegetation removal, utility relocation, paving, sign installation, and striping.

The project would span approximately 5,060-feet long across multiple locations, from Mishka Ct., Greenback Ln., Calexico Dr., Dickson Dr., E. Keswick Dam Rd., Lake Blvd., Shamrock St., sections along the back sections of Magnums Way and Guinevere Ct. and along portions of the railroad. The project would cross Boulder Creek in approximately 4 separate sections and will parallel the stream closely in a few others. The sub-surface pipe bursting method will be used to minimize stream impacts in these locations. This method will require an excavated pit on each end of the sewer line. Each excavated pit will be approximately 6-feet wide, 10-feet long, and have an excavation depth ranging from 6 to 12 feet. The new sewer pipe will be placed in the pit and fed into the existing pipe replacing it in its original alignment. The new pipes will be connected to manholes at each end, and the pits will be backfilled with slurry and native material. The old siphon pipes, the removed manhole material, and the excavated earthen material would be taken to a landfill. Construction is expected to require one construction season (July 1 through October 31) beginning in summer 2026.

ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
The project area is centered on Boulder Creek, an intermittent stream, in a residential neighborhood.

Valley foothill riparian habitat occurs along Boulder Creek through most of the study area. Work would be primarily located within existing easement areas and City owned property zoned open space.

FINDINGS AND DETERMINATION
The City of Redding conducted an Initial Study (attached) that determined that the proposed project could have significant environmental effects on biological resources. Implementation of specific mitigation measures identified below will avoid or mitigate the potentially significant environmental effects identified, and the preparation of an environmental impact report will not be required. If there are substantial changes that alter the character or impacts of the proposed project, another environmental impact determination will be necessary.

Prior to approval of the project, the lead agency may conclude, at a public hearing, that certain mitigation measures identified in the Mitigated Negative Declaration are infeasible or undesirable.
