If you cannot afford to pay and cannot obtain a waiver of the fees charged by the Arbitrator or if you believe that such fees are or will be prohibitively expensive or excessive, we and the Covered Parties will entertain in good faith any reasonable written request by you for us and the Covered Parties to pay or reimburse you for all or part of such fees.

For claims above that amount, the selected arbitration provider’s fee shall be covered equally by the parties. In the event we prevail, we agree not to seek recovery of our attorneys’ fees from you.

2. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council determine approval of the agreement with KOA Corporation to provide engineering services for the Citywide Left-Turn Pocket Study is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State’s Guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act. Staff further recommends that City Council approve the professional services agreement with KOA Corporation for an amount not-to-exceed $99,905.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 11/01/2022
DISCUSSION:
Occasionally, staff receives requests to add turn lanes at street intersections within the City. In response, staff developed an engineering scope of work for a consultant to perform a Citywide Left-Turn Pocket Study (Study) to identify potential locations for these protected turn lanes. The purpose of this study is to determine how left-turn pockets will impact traffic flow at specific City signalized and non-signalized intersections. The City maintains approximately ninety-one (91) signalized intersections and hundreds of non-signalized intersections. The Study will evaluate more than one-hundred (100) intersections to determine if left turn lanes are warranted.
On July 14, 2022, Municipal Utilities and Engineering Department staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to provide engineering services for the Study. On August 11, 2022, proposals were received from the following four (4) consulting firms:
KOA Corporation, Ontario, CA1.
RK Engineering Group, Inc., Newport Beach, CA2.
AGA Engineers, Inc., Fullerton, CA3.
Minagar & Associates, Inc., Laguna Hills, CA4.
In accordance with Chapter 2.16.180 of the City's Municipal Code, an evaluation committee reviewed and rated the proposals based on each firm's demonstrated competence and professional qualifications in accordance with specific evaluation criteria identified in the RFP. KOA Corporation was identified as the consultant most qualified to perform the tasks listed in the RFP. City staff negotiated a reasonable consultant fee and recommends City Council approval of an agreement with KOA Corporation for an amount not-to-exceed $99,905.
Approval of the professional services agreement is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State’s Guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act as there is no possibility that this action will result in an impact on the environment.
ALTERNATIVES:
Council may elect to deny the staff recommendation and provide alternate direction.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
SCOPE OF WORK
KOA acknowledges the Scope of Services presented in the RFP.
TASK 1: PROJECT MANAGEMENT
Upon obtaining a notice to proceed, KOA will immediately schedule a kickoff meeting with the appropriate staff from the City to discuss project background, scope of work,
project objectives, scheduling, and relevant project details.
We want to make sure everyone involved on our team
understands the work scope, schedule, budget, and other important requirements to make the project a success.
One important item to discuss at the kickoff meeting is the number of study intersections to be evaluated.
Shirjeel Muhammad, PE, will be the Project Manager. He
is a senior engineer with about 23 years of experience. He has extensive experience in the field of traffic signal design, geometric design, traffic control design, pedestrian facilities, and handling municipal traffic engineering-related services.
He has also served as project manager and project engineer on many traffic engineering design projects for several cities in Southern California, including Cities of Riverside, Rialto, Costa Mesa, Yorba Linda, Orange, Manhattan Beach, etc. He will conduct weekly internal project meetings and maintain open lines of communication with all involved to move the project along. We strongly believe in proactive critical thinking and communication to minimize project delays. To avoid any unwanted surprises, KOA will be
completely transparent and proactive in dealing with any issues so the City can make knowledgeable decision on
alternative designs.
Our Project Management services will also include:
• Bi-weekly Meetings
• Meeting agendas and minutes, schedule updates,
action items, etc.
• Project Goals and Objectives
• Project Management Approach,
• Project scope and schedule; update it regularly to
reflect any significant changes
• Team roles and responsibilities
• Close coordination with the City’s Project Manager
TASK 2: DATA COLLECTION
After meeting with City staff and confirming the
preliminary list of study intersections, KOA will conduct a comprehensive field review of the locations to identify lane geometry and left turn pocket lengths, and to
observe traffic operations.
KOA will use this data to refine the preliminary list of problematic intersections and submit it to the City for review and approval of a final study intersection list.
Pending approval of the final list of study intersections, KOA will request the following data for these locations:
• Peak-hour traffic turning volumes
• Signal and striping as-built plans
• Signal phasing and timing data
• Any funded improvement plans
KOA will also obtain a 3-year accident data from the City or Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS).
The accident data analysis will focus on left-turn related collisions to identify locations that may require mitigation measures to improve safety and operational performance
for left-turn movements at the intersection.
Our preliminary field review observed that painted green bike lanes and other bicycle facilities are implemented sparingly in the City (e.g., Citrus/Church, Center/Brookside area). This study will also include a review of any bicycle- related left-turn issues and explore the possibility of installing bike boxes at intersections.
ADA COMPLIANCE ASSESSMENT
As an added value, KOA will perform an ADA compliance
assessment of the existing curb ramps at the study
locations. Our engineers will verify curb ramp dimensions/ grades with a smart level and measuring tape. The curb
ramp measurements will be documented on a curb ramp
field form and provided to the City. We will document
these grades and inform the City of all deficiencies.
TASK 3: IDENTIFICATION OF PROJECT
INTERSECTIONS
Based on the available data as outlined previously,
KOA will work with the City to pin-point signalized and unsignalized intersections with apparent issues such as:
• Insufficient left-turn lane length against the peak
hour counts
• Queue spillback
• Inadequate green for left-turn phase
Task 1 Deliverables
• Work Plan
• Schedule
• Agenda and minutes for each meeting
• Status reports
Redlands Regular Meeting of 11/01/2022
8 L:\ca\Agreements\KOA_Professional_Services-FY22-0044.doc-jm After our initial determination of the study intersection, KOA will field Investigate and verify existing roadway
geometry, including striping, pavement markings, and
signage at each subject intersection against the provided data. We will document the site visit with photos and field notes. We will also observe overall traffic flow at each project location, noting any potential recommendations
for further operational improvements.
KOA’s fee schedule assumes we will analyze up to 120
intersections. The study scope will be refined based on City staff’s input.
The calibrated existing conditions models developed
will be updated with forecast traffic volumes to analyze the level of service of study intersections and left-turn queuing conditions. Traffic simulations will be observed using Synchro and SimTraffic software packages. The
analysis will identify appropriate left-turn pocket lengths and left-turn phasing. The analysis will also include the need to keep or convert shared left-through lanes.
The simulation model outputs of pre-mitigation and
post-mitigation scenarios will be compared to report
the improvements in level of service and queue lengths.
Mitigation measures will be proposed for intersections
determined to have problematic left-turns during existing or future year conditions analysis. Mitigation measures will include low-budget solutions without additional right-of- way measures or long-term improvement measures. These
TASK 4: EVALUATION OF PROJECT
INTERSECTIONS
There are generally three methods in determining storage lengths for left-turn lanes:
• Rule-of-thumb methods
• Queuing theory-based analytical methods
• Traffic model-based methods (Synchro + SimTraffic,
etc.)
For selected intersections, KOA proposes to develop traffic simulation models using Synchro and SimTraffic software packages to evaluate the impact of left-turn lanes and any benefits that the addition of a left-turn lane or increased left-turn storage length may provide, without adding
additional right-of-way. We will create a calibrated Synchro model for existing conditions. Accident history will be a key indicator of intersection safety performance. KOA will review 3-year accident history for each study intersection within the City, focusing on left-turn related and rear-end accidents. The review will help identify intersections where left-turn operations need to be enhanced with safety
features.
Some existing shared left-through travel lanes or short left-turn pockets may not be able to accommodate the
ever-increasing volume of left-turning vehicles in future years. To evaluate future needs, KOA will obtain future year link volumes from the latest San Bernardino Traffic Analysis Model (SBTAM) model and apply NCHRP 255
Post-Processing methodologies to forecast turning
volumes at selected intersections. KOA has worked

SUBJECT: Consideration of a purchase order and agreement with Yiftee Inc. in the amount not to exceed $2,122,903 to facilitate the implementation of the ARPA Small Business Gift Card Match Program (Assistant City Manager McConnell)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
I move that the City Council approve a Purchase Order and Agreement with Yiftee Inc. in the amount not to exceed $2,122,903 from the Small Business Gift Card Match Program allocation of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
1. I move that the City Council authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the Agreement and Agreement amendments and other documents necessary to implement the Small Business Gift Card Match Program.
2. RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Purchase Order and Agreement with Yiftee Inc., in the amount not to exceed $2,122,903 from the Small Business Gift Card Match Program allocation of State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). The Purchase Order and Agreement will facilitate the implementation of the City’s gift card match contribution towards the ARPA Small Business Gift Card Match Program, approved by City Council on March 15, 2022.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 11/01/2022
DISCUSSION:
On March 11, 2021, The American Rescue Plan Act was signed into law, and established the Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund and Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Funds, which together make up the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF). This program is intended to provide support to state, territorial, local, and tribal governments in responding to the economic and public health impacts of COVID-19 and to contain impacts on communities, residents, and businesses.
At the March 15, 2022 City Council meeting, Council approved the Small Business Gift Card Match Program funded by the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). The program is aimed at assisting small businesses in mitigating the negative economic impacts of COVID-19.
As previously presented, the 2-year program would provide 300 small businesses with $5,000 during the first year and $2,500 in the second year in matched funds. Since the launch date of May 1, 2022, approximately 25 local businesses have enrolled and have provided staff with feedback about the current program design. Currently, businesses must first make all $5,000 gift card sales and then submit documentation for reimbursement. This is causing a severe cash flow crunch in the operations of small businesses that are already struggling. Enrolled businesses are optimistic and grateful for the City’s efforts to aid them but are communicating the strain this design is causing.
In an effort to improve the existing program early on, staff researched and learned of other California cities that are using ARPA funds to implement an E-gift card program and offer BOGO Cards as a promotion (e.g., a resident buys a $25 card and receives a bonus $25 card). Specifically, Yiftee is being used by these cities due to its ease of use, best customer service rating, and no cost to community organizers (City) or merchants. Purchasers are instead charged a $1 + 5% of the total e-gift card purchase cost. By implementing an e-gift card program, businesses receive their payment right away and helps reduce the business' administrative burden.
Upon integrating the program, the bonus card (city match) would only be accepted for use specifically at eligible and approved small businesses. Staff will promote various campaigns to incrementally introduce the BOGO promotion and engage the public throughout the next 2 years. Any funds provided to Yiftee for the BOGO promotion that are unused will be returned to the City by Yiftee. The Agreement with Yiftee will directly fund the 1:1 bonus match card received by purchasers upon purchase of the indicated $25 amount with the option to impose a limit.

8. Confidentiality. Because of this Agreement, the parties may have access to information that is confidential to the disclosing party (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall include, without limitation, Purchaser lists and information relating to the parties’ products and pricing, exempting this Agreement, and all information marked and expressly designated as confidential by the disclosing party at the time of disclosure. A party’s Confidential Information shall not include any information which (i) becomes generally publicly available through no wrongful act or omission of the receiving party; (ii) is lawfully acquired by the receiving party from a third party without any breach of a confidentiality obligation; or (iii) is independently developed without use of or reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

The parties acknowledge that money damages will not be an adequate remedy if this Section 8 is breached and, therefore, either party may, in addition to any other legal or equitable remedies, seek an injunction or other equitable relief against such breach or threatened breach without the necessity of posting any bond or surety.
9. Non-solicitation
During the term of this Agreement, neither party will (on behalf of itself or any other person or entity) solicit any Purchaser or Merchant of the other party to restrict, limit, or terminate such Purchaser’s or Merchant’s participation in the other party’s products and services.

10.2 Assignment. Customer may not assign or otherwise transfer, without the prior written consent of Yiftee, its rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement to any person or entity, in whole or in part. Yiftee may freely assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement in connection with the sale of all of its business or assets. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Yiftee Community Card Customer Agreement, Revised 2022-09-18
Community Card Customer Agreement
APPENDIX A - Pricing
Customer and Participants are not required to pay Yiftee a subscription fee or a revenue share.
Purchasers pay the face value of the card plus a $1+5% of the eGift Card value eDelivery fee at the time of purchase. Bulk purchases of one thousand dollars ($1000) or more, and enterprise accounts may, at Yiftee’s sole discretion, qualify for a reduced eDelivery fee by depositing funds into their Yiftee eGifting accounts by check or ACH and disabling credit cards. The ability for Customer or a sponsor to pay the eDelivery fee is available.
Participants receive full value of redemptions less credit card processing fees for a card-not-present (CNP) transaction upon redemption. Yiftee does not control these fees; they are set by the Merchant Acquirer who is their credit card processor.
Where permitted by law, Yiftee will implement a monthly maintenance fee on eGift Cards that have been inactive (i.e. no spending on the Card) for periods of greater than 12 consecutive months.
Yiftee eGift Cards do not generally expire. Subject to applicable laws, in some cases eGift Cards given by corporations or merchants as promotions, rewards and awards may have expiration dates. In the case of eGift Cards expiring, Yiftee retains 10% of the original eGift Card value not to exceed the remaining unspent funds and refunds the balance to the purchaser’s Yiftee eGift Card account. eDelivery fees are not refunded. Expiring eGift Cards do not incur maintenance fees.
Participants may choose, at their discretion, to post Offers to encourage Purchasers to use their Community Cards in their stores.
Participants may choose, at their discretion, to offer rebates as fund raisers to local groups such as schools, churches and other non-profits. Such programs are an incentive for the local groups to sell Community Cards to their members, and for the Purchasers to use them in specific stores who are offering rebates. Yiftee will work with the Participants and Purchasers to execute such programs.
No tipping is allowed on Yiftee eGift Cards.
The maximum and minimum prices of gifts are determined by Yiftee in its sole discretion.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 11/01/2022
City Council/Successor Agency Meeting H. 2.
DATE: 11/01/2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Consideration of Ordinance No. 2948 amending Chapter 15.20 of the Redlands Municipal Code and adopting the 2022 Edition of the California Fire Code which incorporates by reference the 2021 International Fire Code, with necessary California and City of Redlands amendments. This Ordinance will nullify and replace the current Ordinance No. 2900, that was enacted in 2019 as part of the previous fire code adoption process (Fire Chief Sessler) MOTION(S):
Mayor requests the City Clerk to read the title of proposed Ordinance No. 2948.
I move to waive further reading of, and to introduce, Ordinance No. 2948 and schedule the public hearing for November 15, 2022.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 2948 and that the public hearing be set for November 15, 2022.
DISCUSSION:
On January 1, 2023, the State of California Building Standards Commission (CBSC) will adopt the 2021 Edition of the International Fire Code whereby creating the 2022 Edition of the California Code.
Adoption of the 2022 California Fire Code and the 2021 International Fire Code will continue to provide regulations and requirements that pertain specifically to the climatic, topographical and geological conditions for the City of Redlands.
These requirements are needed in order to continue to provide and maintain fire and life safety requirements consistent with ordinances previously in place within the City.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 11/01/2022
The most considerable change from previous fire code adoptions is the proposed identification of defensible space zones. While the model code does not identify individual zones for defensible space, the state of California passed AB 3074 in 2020, requiring the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection to further develop existing defensible space regulations by January 1, 2023.
