CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize the Mayor to send a Letter of Support to Shasta College in support of its Economic Impact Report.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact with sending the attached letter of support.

Alternative Action
The City Council could choose to not send the letter of support.

Background/ Analysis
Shasta College is a key educational and economic institution serving the North State region.

Shasta College recently commissioned an economic impact study to quantify its contributions to the regional economy. Preliminary findings estimate that Shasta College contributes more than $200 million to the regional economy, supports more than 1,700 jobs, generates nearly $100 million in wages, and contributes more than $40 million in tax revenue.

Shasta College reached out to the City of Redding (City) requesting a letter of support to be included as a supplemental highlight in their economic impact report. A letter of support from the City recognizes Shasta College's significant role in workforce development, business support, and economic growth in the region and aligns with the City's economic development goals and Council priorities.

Redding, CA 96049-6006
Dear Dr. Nigro,
On behalf of the City of Redding, I am pleased to offer this letter of support for Shasta College and its contributions to the economic vitality of our region.

Shasta College is one of the most significant economic assets in the North State. The College's impact extends far beyond the classroom, it drives workforce development, supports local businesses, and helps keep dollars circulating within our community. The students Shasta College trains become the workers, entrepreneurs, and business owners who strengthen our local economy for years to come.

As the City works to attract and retain businesses and support long term economic growth, having a strong community college that produces a skilled and educated workforce is an invaluable advantage. Shasta College is not just an educational institution, it is an economic engine for the entire North State region.

The City of Redding is proud to support Shasta College and looks forward to our continued partnership in building a thriving and resilient community.

Sincerely,
Mike Littau
City of Redding
Mayor

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following relative to Bid Schedule No. 5715 – 200-Amp Loadbreak Elbows and 600-Amp Deadbreak Elbows and Assemblies for the Redding Electric Utility:
(1) Award Bid Schedule No. 5715 to OneSource Supply Solutions for an annual evaluated contract total of $740,327.98, including sales tax;
(2) Authorize the Purchasing Officer to extend the bid award annually with OneSource Supply Solutions through July 31, 2030, if mutually agreeable, with all prices changing in direct proportion to the Producer Price Index and all terms and conditions remaining the same; and
(3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to approve an additional $148,000 per contract term as a contingency to support operational requirements and higher-than-anticipated contract expenditures.

Fiscal Impact
Funding for the purchase of 200-amp loadbreak elbows and 600-amp deadbreak elbows and assemblies is included in Redding Electric Utility's (REU) adopted Fiscal Year 2025-27 Biennial Budget General System Improvements (GSI) Capital Program. These expenditures represent recurring capital investments necessary to install and replace electric infrastructure to maintain reliable electric service.

In the five-year plan presented to the City Council (Council) in June 2025, this and other General System Improvements, were anticipated to be funded, in whole or in part, through Electric System Revenue Bond proceeds. Approval of this action will not require additional appropriations or increase the adopted biennial budget.

Alternative Action
Council may reject staff's recommendation and provide alternative direction.

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.5(a)--Award of Bid Schedule No. 5715 – 200-Amp Loadbreak and 600-Amp Deadbreak Elbows Page 2
Background/Analysis
REU maintains a comprehensive inventory of electric distribution system components to support ongoing operations, system reliability, and infrastructure replacement projects. Separable insulated connectors, 200-amp loadbreak elbows and 600-amp deadbreak elbows, together with their associated assemblies, mounting brackets, and parking stands, are the standard means of terminating and sectionalizing underground primary distribution cable. These components are installed at pad-mounted transformers, switchgear, junction enclosures, and sectionalizing cabinets throughout REU’s service territory.

REU consumes these components continuously across new underground residential and commercial development, cable replacement, emergency repairs, and planned capital improvement projects. Maintaining an adequate supply ensures REU can respond effectively to planned construction, scheduled replacements, and unplanned emergency repairs, and supports safe restoration of underground facilities.

Consistent with prior awards, staff separated Bid Schedule No. 5715 into three bid groups: (1) Bid Group I – 200-Amp Elbows and Assemblies, (2) Bid Group II – 600-Amp Elbows and Assemblies, and (3) Bid Group III – Mounting Bracket and Parking Stands. This format allows for more competitive pricing across different groups of similar equipment.

Six bid opportunity notices were distributed to potential vendors, in addition to posting the bid on the City's website and advertising in the Record Searchlight. On July 20, 2026, staff opened bids for Bid Schedule No. 5715, with two bids received. Bids were evaluated on the basis of responsiveness, technical specification compliance, and evaluated unit pricing applied to annual estimated quantities. OneSource Supply Solutions submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid, at a combined net cost delivered price of $690,282.50, or $740,327.98 including sales tax. Their proposal was confirmed to meet all bid specifications and product requirements, including conformance to IEEE Std 386, Standard for Separable Insulated Connector Systems for Power Distribution Systems Above 600 V, and to REU construction standards for 15 kV class underground distribution.

Awarding this contract will provide price stability, maintain appropriate warehouse inventory levels, and support reliable electric utility operations. The requested contingency includes a standard allowance for unforeseen cost escalations, including future price increases associated market conditions. The contingency also allows REU to purchase additional material as needed to meet operational requirements, including emergency repairs, unplanned replacement of failed equipment, accelerated inventory replenishment, and other reliability or maintenance needs necessary to support uninterrupted utility operations. Should total costs exceed both the base award and authorized contingency amounts, staff will return to the City Council with recommendations for any necessary adjustments.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Approve the Non-Exclusive Communications Site License Agreement with T-Mobile West, LLC to allow the use of a 900-square-foot area at the City of Redding (City) Benton Field Airport (085), along with space on the City’s existing beacon monopole, for the operation and maintenance of a Personal Communication Service system facility; (2) Authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement; and
(3) Find that this activity is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing Facilities.

Fiscal Impact
The Licensee will pay the City a monthly license fee of $3,046 resulting in annual revenue of $36,552. This fee will increase by three percent each year for the duration of the agreement. All revenue will be deposited into the Airport Division’s accounts.

Alternative Action
The alternative action is to decline approval of the Non-Exclusive Communications Site License Agreement. Staff does not recommend this alternative, as it would forfeit the projected revenue and reduce opportunities to enhance communication services.

Background/Analysis
The City Council originally approved a License Agreement in 2001 for the installation of the monopole by UbiquiTel at the Benton Field location. That agreement was subsequently amended and extended with successor companies Sprint, and ultimately T-Mobile, before reaching its expiration on February 28, 2026.

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.6(a)--Approve License Agreement with T-Mobile West, LLC Page 2 Under the new Non-Exclusive Communications Site License Agreement, T-Mobile West, LLC is requesting the use of a designated area at Benton Field, along with space on the City’s beacon monopole, for the operation, maintenance, modification, repair, upgrade, removal and/or replacement of a Personal Communication Service system facility. The initial term of the agreement shall be for a period of five years commencing on March 1, 2026, and ending on February 28, 2031, with the option of five additional terms of five years each. The City has historically accommodated similar telecommunications installations at municipal sites to support community connectivity, expand carrier coverage, and generate supplemental revenue.

Staff has reviewed this latest request and determined that the proposed use is compatible with current site activities and aligns with the City’s practice of facilitating telecommunications infrastructure on City-owned property and will provide additional review to the Airports Division.

Environmental Review
Staff has determined that this activity is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing Facilities. Class 1 exemptions include the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, or licensing of existing public and private facilities, equipment, and topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of use. The existing Benton Field and beacon monopole will be utilized and the activity will not result in an expansion of use. The action area has been reviewed for sensitive habitats and it does not have significant values for wildlife habitat or other environmental resources. The action has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

Council Priorities/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.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Authorize the City of Redding, serving as the Fiscal Agent for the Redding Municipal Library Board pursuant to Redding Municipal Code Title 2 (Administration and Personnel), Chapter 2.42 (Redding Municipal Library), to accept the grant from the California State Library;
(2) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 54th Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2025-049 appropriating $61,460 in grant funds from the California State Library for Adult and Family Literacy services; and
(3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute all subsequent documentation relative to the grant.

Fiscal Impact
Accepting the grant allows the City of Redding (City) to receive $61,460 in California State Library grant funds for adult and family literacy service programs at the Redding, Anderson, and Burney libraries. There is no match required for this grant and there is no impact to the General Fund.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) could choose not to accept the $61,460 grant. This would limit adult and family literacy services at the Redding, Anderson, and Burney libraries. The Council could also provide staff with alternate direction.

MEETING DATE: September 1, 2026
ITEM NO. 4.6(b)
FROM:
***APPROVED BY***
[email protected] [email protected]
SUBJECT: 4.6(b)--Accept Grant Agreement From The California State Library To Support The Shasta Public Libraries Library Literacy Services Programs.

Travis Menne, Director of
Community Services/Airports
Packet Pg. 94
Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.6(b)--Accept Grant Agreement from the California State Library Page 2 Background/Analysis
Per City Manager’s Policy (CM Policy) CM 97-1, grant applications under $70,000 that do not require matching funds or involve a financial commitment on the part of the City of Redding (City) may be submitted by staff without prior approval by the Council. The policy also sets the threshold for Council approval of grant award acceptance at $35,000 or above. Therefore, as this grant is under $70,000 and did not require any matching funds, staff did not seek the Council’s approval to apply for the Grant, but is now requesting approval to accept the award.

The California Library Literacy Services (CLLS) campaign was created in 1984 as the first statewide library-based adult literacy service to help reduce the high level of illiteracy in California and connect more Californians with public libraries. Programs through CLLS reach and support English-speaking adults with low literacy skills who have yet to succeed in the traditional classroom environment. These no-cost programs help adults improve their basic reading, writing, math, and speaking skills, connect them to resources and provide additional programming to support their families.

Shasta Public Libraries currently provides adult and family literacy services at the Redding, Anderson, and Burney libraries, with a focus on literacy tutoring through one-on-one and smallgroup instruction. The grant funds pay for the staff time and materials required to deliver these services, as the services are not part of the current contract to operate the libraries.

Should Council accept funding from the California State Library, Shasta Public Libraries will be able to continue providing essential adult and family literacy services at all three library locations. The annual grant funding will support ongoing literacy tutoring for adults and families while ensuring consistent, accessible literacy services remain available throughout the community.

The City Attorney’s office has reviewed and approved the language of the Agreement.

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

Council Priority/City Manager Goals
• Budget and Financial Management – “Achieve balanced and stable 10-year Financial Plans for all funds.”
• 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.”

For purposes of this provision, “arm’s-length transactions” are those in which both parties are on equal footing and fair market forces are at play, such as when multiple vendors are invited to compete for an entity’s business and the entity chooses the lowest of the resulting bids. “Self-dealing” is involved where an individual or entity is obligated to act as a trustee or fiduciary, as when handling public funds, and chooses to act in a manner that will benefit the individual or entity, directly or indirectly, to the detriment of, and in conflict with, the public purpose for which all grant monies are to be expended.

43. Severability: If any part of this Agreement is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, such provisions will be voided and severed from this Agreement, but the remainder of the provisions in the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

44. Site Visits: The Grantee shall allow the California State Library to access and conduct site visits, with reasonable notice, at which grant funds are expended and related work being performed at any time during the performance of the work and for up to ninety (90) days after completion of the work, or until all issues related to the grant project have been resolved.

A site visit may include, but not be limited to, monitoring the use of grant funds, providing technical assistance when needed, and visiting the State funded project.

45. Termination: The Agreement shall be subject to termination by the State Librarian or designee upon notice to the Subrecipient at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of termination. In the event this agreement is terminated, the Subrecipient shall deliver to the State Librarian, prior to the final termination date’s passage, copies of all reports, accounting, data, and materials prepared up to the date of termination as well as final close out reports. The State Librarian shall determine and pay the Subrecipient for necessary and appropriate expenditures and obligations up to the date of termination which have not been covered by prior installments previously paid to the Subrecipient.
a. Upon such termination, the unused portion of the grant award must be returned to the California State Library within 45 days. If funding has been advanced to the Subrecipient, any unobligated balances, as determined by the State Librarian, shall be returned to the State Library within 45 days of the notice of termination.
b. However, if the California Governor, Legislature, or any other controlling authority takes action to include, but not limited to, rescinding, cancelling, withdrawing or taking away a grant program, award, money, or any other form of compensation for a grant, through legislation, executive order, directive or any other type of authority then sub-section (a) above is void. Section (b) would control and take precedence over sub-section (a) making the 30 day and 45-day clauses above void. The grantee would be required to immediately submit any reports required to close out your grant and return any money, award, or any other type of compensation according to a timeline established by the action or the State Library.

46. Timeline: Time is of the essence to this Agreement. It is mutually agreed between the parties that the grant application and the timeline included therein are part of the Agreement.

47. Unused Funds: At the end-of-term Grantee agrees to return any unexpended or unaccounted for funds to the State Library, or to submit a written request for an extension of the grant period. Funds will be considered unexpended or unaccounted if they were: (1) not used for their intended purpose, or (2) used inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

Funds will also be considered unaccounted for, and must be returned, if the proposal outcomes or deliverables are materially incomplete by the end-ofterm or earlier termination, as determined by the State Library in its sole discretion.

48. Waiver of Rights: California State Library shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by California State Library. No delay or omission on the part of Docusign Envelope ID: 87A8295A-9456-874E-80EC-DDEBB844D9D7 In Process

California State Library in exercising any rights shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by California State Library of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of California State Library’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by California State Library, nor any course of dealing between California State Library and Grantee, shall constitute a waiver of any of California State Library’s rights or of any of grantee’s obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of California State Library is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by California State Library in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of California State Library.

49. Work Products: Grantee shall provide California State Library with copies of all final products identified in the Work Plan and Application. Grantee shall also provide the State Library with copies of all public education and advertising material produced pursuant to this Agreement.

50. Worker’s Compensation: The State of California will not provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for Grantee or Grantee’s employees or contract personnel. If Grantee hires employees to perform services required by this Agreement, Grantee shall provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for them. The Grantee is aware of Labor Code Section 3700, which requires every employer to be insured against liability for Workers’ Compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the Labor Code, and the Grantee agrees to comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this Agreement.

RE: Contractor and Grantee Compliance with Economic Sanctions Imposed in Response to Russia’s Actions in Ukraine
Dear Grantee,
You are receiving this notification because you currently have an active grant through the California State Library.

On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (EO) regarding sanctions in response to Russian aggression in Ukraine. The EO is located at https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/3.4.22-Russia-Ukraine-ExecutiveOrder.pdf.

The EO directs all agencies and departments that are subject to the Governor’s authority to take certain immediate steps, including notifying all contractors and grantees of their obligations to comply with existing economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia's actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law.

This correspondence serves as a notice under the EO that as a contractor or grantee, compliance with the economic sanctions imposed in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine is required, including with respect to, but not limited to, the federal executive orders identified in the EO and the sanctions identified on the U.S. Department of the Treasury website (https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/financial-sanctions/sanctionsprograms-and-country-information/ukraine-russia-related-sanctions). Failure to comply may result in the termination of contracts or grants, as applicable.

Please note that for any agreements or grants valued at $5 million or more, a separate notification will be sent outlining additional requirements specified under the EO.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions relative to the City of Redding Tarmac Road Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project (Project):
(1) Accept update regarding the Project; and
(2) Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22050(c)(1), make a determination by a fourfifths vote that there is a need to continue the emergency work.

Fiscal Impact
The Tarmac Road Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project (Project) is being funded by a loan from the Wastewater Utility to the Storm Drain Utility. The current total project cost is estimated to be $4,150,000.

The City of Redding (City) received notification from the State on March 10, 2026, that the Governor declared emergency for the 2025 Late December Storm (CDAA 2026-02) is eligible for California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA) funding, making this Project eligible for funding.

If the CDAA funding is approved, then 75 percent of the project cost may be reimbursed to the City by the State. The remaining City cost share of 25 percent would still be loaned to the Storm Drain utility by Wastewater. The application for CDAA funding was submitted on May 12, 2026, and is awaiting review and approval from the granting agency.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to accept the project update and provide alternative direction to staff.

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.11(a)--Update for the Tarmac Rd Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project Page 2 Background/Analysis
On April 7, 2026, the Council adopted an emergency resolution for the project and authorized the negotiation of emergency contracts. The project proposes to replace the failed existing 20- foot by 6-foot natural bottom arch culvert with a 10-foot by 7-foot cast-in-place reinforced concrete box culvert. The work includes reconstruction of the Tarmac Road embankment, curb and gutter, sidewalk, asphalt concrete and other miscellaneous items of work.

Construction began in June and completed work to date includes installation of temporary water main, earthwork and paving of the temporary access road, temporary shoring of utilities, and demolition and removal of damaged culvert. Current work activities include excavation, grading, forming and pouring the new concrete reinforced box culvert as well as other miscellaneous associated items of work.

Environmental Review
This action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and no further action is required. On April 7, 2026, Council determined that the project is statutorily exempt from environmental review und the CEQA Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15269(b)- Emergency Projects.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions relative to the City of Redding Tarmac Road Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project (Project):
(1) Adopt Resolution, by not less than four-fifths affirmative vote, to declare an emergency and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate an emergency public works contract for the project in an amount not-to-exceed $3,500,000; (2) Authorize construction contingency amount up to a total of $300,000; (3) Approve $50,000 to cover costs for project development; (4) Approve $300,000 to cover costs for construction management and inspection fees; (5) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 33rd Amendment to City Budget Resolution No. 2025-049 appropriating $4,150,000 for said purpose; and (6) Find that the Project is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines, pursuant to Section 15269(b) – Emergency Projects.

Fiscal Impact
There have been approximately $55,000 in initial expenses for the project to date for emergency protective measures and engineering. However, due to further inspection, engineering and revised costs estimates the Storm Drain utility does not have sufficient funds to budget for this Project. Therefore, the attached budget resolution is for the Wastewater Utility to provide a loan that will be paid annually, every June 30th and will be amortized annually over a 20-year term at the average pooled cash rate calculated at the time of payment.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to adopt the emergency resolution and direct staff to proceed with repairs through the regular Public Contract Code process or provide alternate direction. These processes carry the risk of being too untimely if the City is to immediately protect the public health and safety by restoration of public services and facilities.

If an alternative action is approved staff requests that the budget resolution be adopted to proceed with the Project.

Background/Analysis
On December 21, 2025, a meteorological event known as a convergence line appeared over the City and outlying areas which released an enormous quantity of water consistent with what is calculated to be a once in every 50-year storm. On December 22, 2025, Interim City Manager Kari Kibler, in her role as the Director of Emergency Services, proclaimed that a local emergency existed throughout the City of Redding. Consistent with State law, Redding Municipal Code and City policies, Council held a special meeting on December 26, 2025, to confirm and ratify the Director of Emergency Services’ Proclamation.

Re: 9.11(g)--Declare Emergency for the Tarmac Rd Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project Page 3
On or about December 21, 2025, City crews observed significant failure of a 20-foot by 6-foot natural bottom arch culvert and roadway embankment along Tarmac Road potentially jeopardizing the entire embankment and access for Autumn Glenn Subdivision. Tarmac Road serves approximately 50 residences and is the sole access point other than a narrow emergency access easement on private property. Attached are pictures of the failure and interim protective measures described below.

Staff has contracted with J.F. Shea Construction Inc. for the construction of protective measures and potentially repair. J.F. Shea, a local contractor, was selected based on their technical knowledge, resource availability, and previous performance on emergency projects of similar size and scope. The contract is to provide temporary emergency protective measures including but not limited to slope grading, culvert inlet stabilization, placement of rock slope protection and plastic sheathing to prevent further slope erosion and destabilization of the fill slope supporting Tarmac Road. Construction activities started on December 30, 2025, and the work was completed on December 31, 2025, prior to additional forecasted atmospheric storm events for New Year’s Weekend. Approximately $25,000 have been spent to date. The contractor and the City have continued to monitor the temporary work to assure any additional protective measure are implemented as required. In addition, already having an executed contract with J.F.

Shea will significantly increase their ability to mobilize immediately instead of waiting to secure bonds, insurance and execute contracts.

City engineering staff in cooperation with the Storm Drain utility, contractor, and vendors have been assessing the condition of the arch culvert and roadway. Visual inspections have revealed significant scour erosion of the natural bottom of arch culvert footings throughout and failure of the footing close to the midpoint of the culvert. The embankment slope continues to slough and cracks along the eastbound shoulder and sidewalk are continuing to slowly increase. Staff evaluated a solution to salvage the existing culvert, however due to the extensive scour and damage to the culvert and loss of embankment it was determined that full replacement of the arch culvert with a concrete box culvert was the best solution. Replacement would allow for the roadway embankment to be reconstructed and the box culvert would provide hazard mitigation of future failure due to the concrete bottom of the new culvert. The project will also include concrete headwalls to protect the inlet of the culvert which was a primary cause of failure.

The Resolution seeks authorization to declare an emergency 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. 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 safety by restoring public facilities. If the replacement is not completed prior to fall, 2026 rain season, then there is a potential for catastrophic failure of the culvert and roadway. Failure of the culvert and roadway would be a public access and safety crisis for the Autumn Glenn Subdivision.

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. 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.

Re: 9.11(g)--Declare Emergency for the Tarmac Rd Storm Drain Emergency Replacement Project Page 4
The Resolution has been approved as to form by the City Attorney.

Environmental Review
Staff has determined that the project is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 15269 – Emergency Project. The CEQA Section 15269 exemption includes emergency repairs to maintain, repair, restore, demolish, or replace property or facilities damaged or destroyed as a result of a disaster in a disaster-stricken area in which a state of emergency has been proclaimed by the Governor. The 2025 Late December Storms caused significant damage to land, structures, and critical infrastructure in Shasta County, and the California Governor signed a State of Emergency Proclamation for the 2025 Late December Storms on December 24, 2025.

WHEREAS, Public Contract Code sections 20168 and 22050 and Redding Municipal Code 4.22.120(A)provide that, in the case of emergency, a public agency 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; and
WHEREAS, on or about December 21, 2025, staff was made aware that the 20-foot by 6-foot arch culvert storm water conveyance system under Tarmac Road failed a n d i s causing significant erosion and undermining of the roadway; and WHEREAS, Tarmac Road is critical for the Autumn Glenn Subdivision primary residential access with no other access other than a narrow emergency access on private property; and
WHEREAS, the roadway is vital to the Autumn Glenn Subdivision, public health, safety, and fire protection; 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 summer 2027 due to the onset of the 2026 rain season; and WHEREAS, failure to complete the arch culvert replacement and roadway embankment repair prior to the 2026 rain season would significantly increase the risk of the total roadway failure and threaten the safety of the Autumn Glenn Subdivision.; and WHEREAS, protective measures of the embankment slope to accommodate the delay necessary for the competitive bidding process would not mitigate or eliminate the threat to persons or property;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

1. The City Council of the City of Redding finds that the recitals set forth above are true and correct and are hereby adopted as findings of fact.

2. The public interest and necessity require the immediate expenditure of public money to restore the storm water conveyance system to full capacity, protect the public health, safety and welfare, and prevent further damage to the roadway.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution to confirm and ratify the Proclamation of the Director of Emergency Services declaring a local emergency.

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 December 21, 2025, a storm event arrived in the City of Redding, ultimately causing conditions 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 resulting in localized flooding, water rescues, and damage to roadways, storm water systems, and other infrastructure. The current forecast calls for continued storms and rainfall which could further exacerbate flooding and increase the difficulty of recovery efforts.

Re: 2.1--Adopt Resolution to Confirm and Ratify the Proclamation Declaring a Local Emergency Page 2
Due to these events and weather conditions, a local emergency was proclaimed on December 22, 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 her capacity as Director of Emergency Services under Redding Municipal Code (RMC) section 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.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions relative to Request for Proposals No. 5691 for Wastewater Lift Station Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Upgrades:
(1) Award the Consultant and Professional Services Contract to ACET Solutions in an amount not-to-exceed $313,380;
(2) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the contract with ACET Solutions; (3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to approve contract amendments not to exceed $86,600; and
(4) Find that the project is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing Facilities.

Fiscal Impact
Funding for this project is from the Wastewater Utility. The total project cost is estimated at $450,000. Staff time, including coordination and preparation of the Request for Proposal (RFP) and contract management are estimated at $50,000. The balance, approximately $400,000, will cover the associated contract costs including all engineering, programming, configuring, integrating, cybersecurity, testing, training and warranty services to upgrade the lift station Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.

The Wastewater Utility has sufficient funding budgeted in the current Fiscal Year and this funding will not impact other activities or projects.

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.11(b)--Award RFP 5691 for Wastewater SCADA Upgrades Page 2 Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to award Request for Proposals No. 5691 or authorize the execution of the Consultant and Professional Services Contract at this time. By doing this, the existing lift station SCADA and hardware systems will not be upgraded and will continue to be deficient with limited capabilities to evaluate and monitor the stations throughout the City of Redding (City).

Background/Analysis
The Wastewater Utility determined that after several decades of using a variety of devices from multiple manufacturers, resulting in a patchwork of technology, it was time to upgrade the SCADA system for the lift stations. There are 21 sites (18 lift stations, a flow monitoring station, and two solid waste gas extraction sites) in various locations throughout the City that will be included in this upgrade ranging from small package stations, to large complex stations.

While the current systems are still functional, the inconsistency in manufacturers and overall technology has led to multiple challenges. Some of these challenges include lack of support due to obsolete equipment, variable programming due to assorted brands and manufacturers, limitations on integration leading to custom or workaround solutions, and inefficiency in staff training on equipment. To address this, staff went to the Council in October 2025 to sole source the manufacturer of the equipment. After the sole source was approved by the Council, staff was then able to move forward with the RFP to update the lift station SCADA system.

The RFP included the following language to identify the overall project scope. To alleviate systemwide SCADA and hardware deficiencies and to add necessary remote monitoring and alarm notification capabilities, the City is seeking proposals from highly qualified firms to provide professional services related to software procurement, development, testing, documentation, integration, remote access, and alarm notifications associated with a turnkey SCADA system.

Consultant Selection Process
Four staff members from various Departments throughout the City (Public Works, Wastewater Utility, Electrical Technicians) formed a review and selection panel. The panel’s evaluation was based on the RFPs selection criteria and the consultants’ abilities and qualifications to complete the scope of services required.

On May 29, 2026, three proposals, including consultant fees in sealed envelopes, were received.

The panel members evaluated and scored each proposal based on the consultants’ understanding of the project/scope, project’s team experience with similar types of projects and City projects, experience and qualifications of the project team, overall project approach, ability to manage project schedule and budget, and geographic location of the team. The panel ranked the firms based on its scores as follows:

ArcSine Engineering 3
Packet Pg. 163
Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.11(b)--Award RFP 5691 for Wastewater SCADA Upgrades Page 3 Following the evaluation and ranking, PACE Engineering’s proposed fees were opened and reviewed. As part of City Manager Policy 22-03, price is not the singular guiding issue in selecting a consultant. In addition, the RFP states the following in the Evaluation Criteria section, “The consultant fees will be evaluated to determine if the amount of the fee is considered a reasonable cost for the work. In the event that the top ranked consultant submits a fee that is not considered a reasonable cost for the work and the consultant does not agree to lower the fee to an acceptable level, the City Engineer reserves the right to bypass the top ranked consultant and to negotiate with the second ranked consultant.” PACE’s proposed fee was more than 4 times the amount that the wastewater utility had anticipated. After discussion and negotiations with PACE, it was determined that a reasonable cost could not be reached between the City and the Consultant based on the scope of services that were desired.

Staff proceeded to review and evaluate ACET Solutions proposed fee. After confirming their proposed scope and fee encompassed what City staff was anticipating staff determined that moving forward with ACET Solutions was the appropriate direction.

The consultant fee is estimated and payments will be for actual work performed on a not-toexceed basis. However, staff recommends the approval of an additional $86,600 in contingency reserve. Contingency funds may be necessary due to unforeseen project issues. If the contingency reserve needs to be utilized, an amendment would be negotiated with the consultant and the contract would be modified with approval of the City Manager.

The attached professional services contract with ACET Solutions, is approved as to form by the City Attorney.

Environmental Review
Staff has reviewed the project and determined that it is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing Facilities. Class 1 exemptions include the minor alteration of existing public and private facilities, equipment, and topographical features involving negligible or no expansion of use. The existing SCADA system will be upgraded to meet modern standards and requirements, and the activity will not result in expansion of use. The project has no potential to have a significant effect on the environment.

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.”

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.11(c)--Award RFP No. 5709 Replace AC 2026 for Construction Mgmt Services Page 2 The remaining, existing funding for the Project, one of the City’s primary annual pavement preservation projects, comes from prior year RMRA revenues received by the City’s Streets Division, deposited into the City’s Special Gas Tax fund, and reported on the Annual State Controller’s Streets Expenditure Report. This remaining unexpended, prior-year funding for preconstruction is expected to be carried forward to the construction phase in this fiscal year, pending approval of administrative carryover requests pursuant to council policy 409.

There is no General Fund impact to accepting the recommendation.

Alternative Action
The Council may choose not to award this contract, in which case, staff would be required to manage construction management and inspection. This would require either consultant services to be solicited for other capital work or a reduction in the City’s Capital Program delivery.

Background/Analysis
The Replace AC Surfacing 2026 (project) includes street surface preparation, approximately 8,462 tons of asphalt concrete, ADA ramps, traffic control, striping, pavement markings, pavement markers and all other work shown in the drawings and as required by the specifications at various locations and as directed by the Engineer. Construction activities are anticipated to commence in early to mid-September and given the current volume of capital projects currently and anticipated to be active this construction season, consultant services for contract administration of this project are needed.

CONSULTANT SELECTION PROCESS
In June 2026, a formal Request for Proposals (No. 5709), outlining the specific scope of work, was advertised. Proposals were required to include a scope of work and proposed fee. Proposals and fee schedules were received on July 20, 2026, from two firms. A review and selection panel were formed with members from the Public Works Department. Based upon proposal review and experience, the panel ranked the firms as follows:

Proposals were evaluated based on their understanding of the scope of work, ability to meet the proposed schedule and maintain the project budget, experience and qualifications of the proposed staff, ability to work with City staff, project approach, familiarity with state and City procedures, and geographic location of the team. Applying this criteria to the proposals, the selection panel determined that GHD, Inc., was the best qualified firm to provide the required services for this project.

Report to Redding City Council August 27, 2026
Re: 4.11(c)--Award RFP No. 5709 Replace AC 2026 for Construction Mgmt Services Page 3 Following the evaluation and ranking, GHD, Inc., proposed fees were opened, evaluated, and negotiated to include reasonable costs based on the scope of services as well as previous similar projects cost comparisons.

The consultant fee is estimated and the contract will be for actual work performed. However, staff recommends the approval of an additional $50,000 in contingency reserve. Contingency funds may be necessary due to unforeseen project issues. If this reserve needs to be utilized, a contract amendment would be negotiated with the consultant and the contract would be modified with approval of the City Manager. A professional services agreement with GHD, Inc., has been approved as to form by the City Attorney’s office and is attached.

Environmental Review
Consultant selection is not a project defined under California Environmental Quality Act, and no further action is required at this time. The consultant will provide design and technical study information necessary to ensure environmental compliance as the project progresses.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Adopt Resolution to support the Association of California Water Agencies’ policy framework “Vision For Our Water Future”.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact; the recommended action would incur no cost. The City of Redding is an Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) member and annual dues are included in the Water Utility’s budget.

Alternate Action
The City Council may choose not to approve the resolution and provide alternate direction for staff.

Background/Analysis
ACWA is a statewide coalition of 470 public water agency members collectively responsible for 90 percent of the water deliveries to cities, farms, and businesses in California. ACWA’s mission is to assist its members in promoting the development, management, and reasonable beneficial use of good quality water at the lowest practical cost in an environmentally balanced manner.

Supporting ACWA’s policy framework, Vision for Our Water Future, allows the City to proactively advocate for local ratepayer relief, modern water rights protections, and state funding ahead of the upcoming California gubernatorial transition. Local water systems face constant pressure from state-level regulatory mandates. Aligning with a statewide coalition ensures Redding has a powerful, unified voice to influence incoming administration platforms.

This resolution has been approved to form by the City Attorney.

Re: 4.11(e)--Award BS No. 5688 Enterprise Well 10 CO2 Rehabilitation Page 2 Project cost components are estimates and allowable shifting of the project development, construction, construction management, and construction contingency funds may be necessary to balance funds within the approved total project budget.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to award the bid for the project and provide staff with alternate direction. If the project is not awarded, rehabilitation will not be completed and Enterprise Well 10 will remain out of service. Not having this well operational potentially limits the City’s available water supply, particularly during periods of high demand or when surface water allocations are curtailed.
