Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 410 of 1055
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
I move to introduce Ordinance No. 2993.
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft ordinance in a public hearing held on October 14, 2025, and unanimously recommended that the City Council approve the proposed ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
On November 18, 2025, the City Council held a public hearing, received public comments and discussed the draft ordinance. The draft ordinance presented by staff limited the height of detached ADU’s to 16 feet (16'), which essentially prohibited a new two-story ADU - except over an existing garage, which is allowed pursuant to State law.
The City Council directed staff to modify the proposed ordinance to allow an ADU to be constructed over a new accessory structure or garage, thus creating a two-story structure as long as the structure was set back at least ten feet (10') from all adjacent single-family properties.
SUMMARY:
The amended text has been added to Table 18.156.450(H), Development Standards for ADUs in Single-Family Residential Districts, and reads as follows:
"Two-story ADU or accessory structure/garage with an ADU:
Up to 25 feet (25'), if the structure is at least ten feet (10’) from the side property line(s) of an abutting single-family zoned property.”
In addition, staff has made a few other minor edits to ensure that our ordinance is consistent with State law.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 411 of 1055
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed code amendment is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 (Other Statutory Exemptions) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Section 15282(h) states, “The adoption of an ordinance regarding second units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone by a city or county to implement the provisions" of State law is exempt from environmental review. The proposed ordinance meets the intent and purpose of that exemption. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. City Council may suggest changes to the proposed draft ordinance;
2. City Council can continue the proposal and direct staff to address any further issues.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
The proposed ordinance will help implement Priority A (Quality of Life) contained in the Redlands Strategic Plan.
Strategic Objective 2 (Economic Vitality): Implement policies and programs to expand the City’s affordable housing opportunities.

CURRENT STATE LAW.
WHEREAS, the City has initiated Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 in accordance with Chapter 18.204 of the Redlands Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the City of Redlands faces a serious housing problem and the lack of access to affordable housing has a direct impact upon the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the City; and
WHEREAS, the California Legislature has consistently recognized the continuing need for affordable housing in California, stating in Government Code § 65580, that "the availability of housing is of vital statewide importance, and the early attainment of decent housing… is a priority of the highest order" and, further, that, "local… governments have a responsibility to use the powers vested in them to facilitate the improvement and development of housing to make adequate provision for the housing needs of all economic segments of the community"; and WHEREAS, affordable housing is regulated by a variety of state and local laws, ordinances, and policies, and the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) requires the City to provide for the development of a specified number of housing units.

WHEREAS, a lack of new units affordable to very-low, low and moderate-income households within the City will have a substantially negative impact because: (1) housing will have to be built far from employment centers, which will increase commuting and negatively impact traffic, air and noise pollution, and (2) the City and employers within the City will find it difficult to recruit and retain employees; and
WHEREAS, the State of California requires each city to develop a general plan establishing policies for future development. As specified in the California Government Code, the general plan must: (i) encourage the development of a variety of housing types for all income levels; and (ii) assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of low and moderate-income households; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code § 65583.1 allows a city or county to identify housing sites by a variety of methods, including identifying properties for accessory dwelling units as sites that may qualify for households of varying income levels; and Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 414 of 1055
WHEREAS, the City has authority under its police power to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, by imposing land use regulations that that will provide additional housing that is affordable to all income levels that is dispersed throughout the City; and WHEREAS, the implementation of this ordinance will aid the City in achieving the goal of making housing availability more diverse, dispersed, and affordable; and WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is required to update Article VII of Chapter 18.156 of the Zoning Regulations to implement Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code § 66318 states: (a) a local agency may amend its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the limitations of State law; and, (b) an accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth; and WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined that the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment would be consistent with, and will implement, Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines; and
WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission recommended to the City Council that proposed Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 be approved; and WHEREAS, in accordance with California Government Code § 65090, on or about November 7, 2025, the City Clerk gave notice by publication in a newspaper of general circulation of the holding of a public hearing at which Ordinance No. 2993 would be considered by City Council; and
WHEREAS, on November 18, 2025, the City Council held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance No. 2993 and continued the public hearing to December 16, 2025; WHEREAS, on December 16, 2025, the City Council continued the public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance No. 2993.

Roof pitch shall be not less than 3:12 and not more than 10:12, when feasible (the exceptions are California Government Code § 66323 units). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal complies with Table 18.156.470(B)(1) above. It is recommended that roof pitch of the ADU should be equal to or less than (within 20% or 5 degrees, whichever is larger) the roof pitch of the primary unit, when feasible.
iii. Rooftop parapets are limited to eighteen inches (18”) in height, and are included in measurement of the overall building height. Any rooftop equipment shall be placed on the rear or interior side(s) of the roof so as to be completely screened from view from public right-of-way (not including alleys), when feasible.
iv. Dormers, cupolas, turrets, towers, domes, or other projections (including chimneys) are prohibited.
v. For properties located within a High Fire Hazard Area, the proposal uses Class A rated roofing materials and Class A rated siding materials (e.g., eaves, rooflines, fascia, rafter tails, shutters, etc.). Roof vents, gable vents, soffit vents, and other openings, if any, shall be ember resistant.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS AMENDING TITLE 18
(ZONING REGULATIONS) OF THE REDLANDS MUNICIPAL CODE,
CHAPTER 18.156, ARTICLE VII (SECOND RESIDENTIAL DWELLING
UNITS), UPDATING DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS TO ALIGN WITH
CURRENT STATE LAW.
WHEREAS, the City has initiated Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370 in accordance with Chapter 18.204 of the Redlands Municipal Code; and
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that the City of Redlands faces a serious housing problem and the lack of access to affordable housing has a direct impact upon the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the City; and
WHEREAS, the California Legislature has consistently recognized the continuing need for affordable housing in California, stating in Government Code § 65580, that "the availability of housing is of vital statewide importance, and the early attainment of decent housing… is a priority of the highest order" and, further, that, "local… governments have a responsibility to use the powers vested in them to facilitate the improvement and development of housing to make adequate provision for the housing needs of all economic segments of the community"; and WHEREAS, affordable housing is regulated by a variety of state and local laws, ordinances, and policies, and the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) requires the City to provide for the development of a specified number of housing units. The City’s Housing Production allocation for the 2021-2029 allocation cycle calls for the development of 2,234 new affordable housing units as follows: 652 units are needed for moderate-income households, 615 units are needed for low-income households and 967 units are needed for very low and extremely low-income households; and
WHEREAS, a lack of new units affordable to very-low, low and moderate-income households within the City will have a substantially negative impact because: (1) housing will have to be built far from employment centers, which will increase commuting and negatively impact traffic, air and noise pollution, and (2) the City and employers within the City will find it difficult to recruit and retain employees; and
WHEREAS, the State of California requires each city to develop a general plan establishing policies for future development. As specified in the California Government Code, the general plan must: (i) encourage the development of a variety of housing types for all income levels; and (ii) assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of low and moderate-income households; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code § 65583.1 allows a city or county to identify housing sites by a variety of methods, including identifying properties for accessory dwelling units as sites that may qualify for households of varying income levels; and Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 432 of 1055
2 I:\cmo\Ordinances\Ordinance 2993 ADU UPDATE Legislative.12.04.2025.bm.docx WHEREAS, the City has authority under its police power to protect the public health, safety, and welfare, by imposing land use regulations that that will provide additional housing that is affordable to all income levels that is dispersed throughout the City; and WHEREAS, the implementation of this ordinance will aid the City in achieving the goal of making housing availability more diverse, dispersed, and affordable; and WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is required to update Article VII of Chapter 18.156 of the Zoning Regulations to implement Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code § 66318 states: (a) a local agency may amend its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the limitations of State law; and, (b) an accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth; and WHEREAS, on October 14, 2025, the Planning Commission held a noticed public hearing at which interested persons had an opportunity to testify in support of, or opposition to, Ordinance Text Amendment No. 370; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has determined that the proposed Ordinance Text Amendment would be consistent with, and will implement, Program No. 1.6-3 contained in the certified and adopted 2021-2029 Housing Element; and

i. Roof style and construction shall be hipped or gable (the exceptions are California Government Code § 66323 units). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal complies with Table 18.156.470(B)(1) above. ii. Roof pitch shall be not less than 3:12 and not more than 10:12, when feasible (the exceptions are California Government Code § 66323 units). The applicant may choose another style if the proposal complies with Table 18.156.470(B)(1) above. It is recommended that roof pitch of the ADU should be equal to or less than (within 20% or 5 degrees, whichever is larger) the roof pitch of the primary unit, when feasible.
iii. Rooftop parapets are limited to eighteen inches (18”) in height, and are included in measurement of the overall building height. Any rooftop equipment shall be placed on the rear or interior side(s) of the roof so as to be completely screened from view from public right-of-way (not including alleys), when feasible.
iv. Dormers, cupolas, turrets, towers, domes, or other projections (including chimneys) are prohibited.
v. For properties located within a High Fire Hazard Area, the proposal uses Class A rated roofing materials and Class A rated siding materials (e.g., eaves, rooflines, fascia, rafter tails, shutters, etc.). Roof vents, gable vents, soffit vents, and other openings, if any, shall be ember resistant.
c. Ornamentation: The exterior design of the ADU shall not include unnecessary ornamentation and the following architectural details shall be prohibited, such as wrought iron features, arcades, porticos, balconets, brackets, columns, corbels, cornice, quoins, rafter tails, dormers, cupolas, finials, etc. d.

Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 446 of 1055
16 I:\cmo\Ordinances\Ordinance 2993 ADU UPDATE Legislative.12.04.2025.bm.docx a. Existing building elements may remain if in compliance with the applicable provisions of the California Building Standards Code, Residential Code, and Fire Code.
b. Installation or construction of new exterior design elements, features, materials or treatments shall conform to the requirements of subsection (B)(1) above (the exceptions are California Government Code § 66323 units).
C. Historic Properties and Historic Districts:
1. For new structures on a designated historic property, including properties within a local historic or scenic district, it is recommended that the exterior design is sufficiently differentiated from the historic building so that the ADU is clearly distinguishable from the historic structure. This may be achieved through use of simplified exterior materials and treatments (for example, omit ornamentation, or use of plain roof fascia rather than an eave cornice, or use of undivided window panes rather than divided windows, etc.).
2. A new accessory dwelling unit should be located on the property so that it is minimally visible (if at all) from the public right-of-way, if feasible, so that the new ADU is subordinate to the primary historic dwelling on the property. It is recommended that the ADU have a lower height that the primary historic dwelling as well as a simple exterior design, omit ornamentation, and avoid use of decorative details.
3. Applicants may also refer to the City’s adopted Historic Architectural Design Guidelines for guidance.
D. A new exterior stairway or elevated platform to an ADU (the exceptions are California Government Code § 66323 units): shall not be located within any required setback area; shall be located within an interior yard area, when feasible; and shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible.
E. Outdoor living space above the first story (such as a balcony, roof deck, elevated platform, or other occupiable outdoor space) shall not be permitted to be located within ten feet (10’) of any abutting single-family zoned property.” F. Visibility of HVAC Equipment: Window and roof-mounted HVAC equipment shall not be visible from a public street (not including alleys), when feasible.
G. Ground-mounted ductless condensers and heat pumps shall be permitted at finished surface level (within a yard area that is on the interior of the lot, if feasible). Heating and cooling air handlers or ductwork shall be installed within the building envelope (“building envelope” is defined as the outer shell of a building that separates the interior from the exterior environment).”

Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 450 of 1055
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff’s recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
“I move to introduce Ordinance No. 2993.”
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission reviewed the draft ordinance in a public hearing held on October 14, 2025, and unanimously recommended that the City Council approve the proposed ordinance. The Commission discussed various aspects of the development standards, and recommended maintaining the current maximum allowable size of 1,200 square feet for an accessory dwelling unit in the city's Zoning Regulations.
BACKGROUND:
The adoption of an ordinance updating the City's zoning regulation to align with current State law will implement Program No. 1.6-3 of the City’s certified 2021-2029 Housing Element. The revised regulations are intended to help facilitate more Accessory Dwelling Unit ("ADU") production by making the permitting process easier, faster, and more affordable for developers or homeowners who wish to build an ADU.
In recent years, the State Legislature has adopted numerous bills updating the land use regulations pertaining to the construction of new housing, and particularly affordable housing, in an effort to make it easier for developers to construct new housing units. State regulations pertaining to the construction of Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have been updated to facilitate and expedite the construction of more housing. For example, Assembly Bill (AB) 68, AB 587, AB 671, AB 881, and Senate Bill (SB) 13 further incentivize the development of ADUs through streamlined permits, reduced setback requirements, increased allowable square footage, reduced parking requirements, and reduced fees.
State law is now very explicit about certain development standards such as structure height, required yard areas and setbacks, parking requirements, and various other development standards. State law supersedes local ordinances, therefore, when a city’s ordinance is not consistent with State law, then State law simply supersedes the local municipal codes and developers may invoke current State law. The California Department of Housing & Community Development (HCD) has been actively monitoring local agencies and have sent letters encouraging those agencies to update their municipal codes accordingly.
State law is also very clear about the wording of any architectural design Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 451 of 1055
standards. State law does not permit vague terms such as “guidelines” or subjective methods of analysis and judgment. Terminology such as "be compatible with," "neighborhood character," or "materials matching or similar to" are no longer accepted by HCD. State law now requires the architectural design standards to be “objective standards,” defined as,
“Standards that involve no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal.” (Gov. Code § 66313, subdivision (i))
Furthermore, ADUs must be reviewed and approved (or denied) ministerially, without discretionary review or a public hearing (Gov. Code § 66317(a)).
Development standards must be objective to allow for ministerial review (Gov.
Code § 66314(b)(1)). Appeals of a ministerial permit may only be filed by the applicant or property owner (in the case of a denial), and not by the general public or any neighbors (in the case of an approval).
The Planning Division maintains a webpage to summarize current State requirements and development standards, including the ADU Handbook published by the Department of Housing & Community Development (HCD), available at: ‘https://www.cityofredlands.org/post/accessory-dwelling-units-adu’.
SUMMARY:
Staff has prepared a draft ordinance that will update Redlands Municipal Code Chapter 18.156, Article VII (Second Residential Dwelling Units), which is a part of the City’s Zoning Regulations. The overarching goal of the ordinance is to align the City’s zoning code with current State ADU law, while also incorporating local municipal requirements that are permissible under State law.
Accessory units must now be allowed in all residential zoning districts that permit single-family and multifamily dwellings, as well as mixed use districts that permit residential uses. This also includes similar districts within Specific Plans that permit residential uses and mixed uses. Government Code section 66319 states that ADUs “shall be deemed to be an accessory use or an accessory building and shall not be considered to exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which it is located, and shall be deemed to be a residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designations for the lot. The accessory dwelling unit shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.” Similarly, recent updates to State law include Gov. Code § 66318 that states, “(a) A local agency may amend its zoning ordinance or general plan to incorporate the policies, procedures, or other provisions applicable to the creation of an accessory dwelling unit if these provisions are consistent with the Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 452 of 1055
limitations of this article.
(b) An accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not be considered in the application of any local ordinance, policy, or program to limit residential growth.” A legislative draft of the ordinance is attached that highlights proposed changes.
Updated sections and topics include:
1. Numbers of ADUs per lot: State law currently addresses the number(s) of ADUs that may be allowable per residential lot, based on the type of zoning (e.g., single-family lots and multifamily lots). These may include one detached ADU, one attached ADU, and one Junior ADU. Those provisions are incorporated by reference, and it is not necessary to reiterate in the ordinance.
2. Maximum floor area (Detached ADU): No change is proposed to the current maximum size of 1,200 square feet for a detached ADU (which aligns with current state law). The conversion of an existing accessory structure, such as a detached garage to an ADU, is not subject to unit size requirements (Gov. Code § 66323(a)(1)). Also, in the case of an existing garage proposed to be converted to an ADU, State law does not allow local agencies to require replacement parking for the structure being converted.
The California Department of Housing & Community Development has previously disallowed local ordinances that have attempted to limit ADU size based on parcel size. State law also overrules other local development standards that could limit the construction of ADUs, such as those pertaining to Lot Coverage, Floor-Area Ratio, building separation requirements (that exceed the Building Code’s standards), on-site landscaping or open space requirements, and any other local zoning standard that has the effect of precluding the development of an ADU.
3. Maximum floor area (Attached ADU): For an attached ADU, meaning created within the primary dwelling unit, the maximum will be 50% of the existing primary unit’s living area or 1,200 square feet, whichever is smaller. Junior ADU are limited to 500 square feet per State law and must be created within the existing walls of the primary unit. The ordinance will allow a de minimus addition of up to 150 square feet beyond the existing dimensions of the primary unit to provide for ingress/egress only, such as a staircase or landing (consistent with State law).
4. Development Standards: The proposed ordinance includes a table that clearly summarizes the development standards (height, floor area, and setbacks) for easy reference. Where State law provides for any exceptions or alternative standards (such as Gov. Code § 66323 units), State law is incorporated by reference.
5. High Fire Hazard Areas: The State will not allow local jurisdictions to prohibit the construction of new ADUs in high fire hazard severity zones. New Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 453 of 1055
development in a High Fire Hazard area must comply with the new State codes including the 2025 Wildland-Urban Interface Code, which includes construction materials and design (e.g., requires Class A fire-resistant materials). The Fire Department’s review will address issues such as adequate water supply, landscape fuel modification, and vegetation management.
6. Parking requirements: The proposed ordinance aligns with current State law regarding the on-site parking requirements, or waivers and exemptions from the parking requirements, depending on the criteria in State law. A detached ADU generally will require one (1) parking space, unless an exemption applies, and must be on a paved surface which may be a driveway. An attached ADU or Junior ADU does not require any additional parking spaces.
7. Architectural design standards: The proposed ordinance includes objective architectural design standards for exterior materials, roof style, roof pitch, door and window openings and trim, light fixtures, ornamentation, accessory equipment, etc. The design standards must be written in such a way to preclude subjective judgment that might be exercised by staff or a Commission. Objective standards must be “uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal.”
Note that the architectural design standards would also be applicable in the City’s historic districts and locally designated historic properties. The Historic & Scenic Preservation Commission (HSPC) reviewed the draft ordinance on April 3, 2025, and June 5, 2025. The Commission’s suggestions and clarifications have been incorporated in the final draft. Building permits for an ADU must be processed and approved ministerially (without discretionary review), and therefore, the City cannot require a Certificate of Appropriateness or any review by the HSPC as that would involve a discretionary decision.
While State law does allow for a local agency to impose standards that prevent adverse impacts on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources (Gov. Code § 66314(b)(1), there are very few properties in Redlands that are listed on the State’s Register. In other words, that provision does not include properties that are listed only on a local historic register (which includes the eight local historic districts in Redlands plus several individually designated historic properties).
8. Rental requirements: State law currently requires a rental period of 30 days or longer, and the draft ordinance reiterates that provision of State law.
9. Substantive requirements for local ordinances: The additional requirements for the content of local ordinances adopted pursuant to Gov. Code Section 66314 is contained in the draft ordinance (including sections pertaining to changes of occupancy, utility connections, exemptions from fire sprinkler requirements, and demolition of a detached garage, among other provisions).
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 454 of 1055
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
The proposed code amendment is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15282 (Other Statutory Exemptions) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Section 15282(h) states, “The adoption of an ordinance regarding second units in a single-family or multifamily residential zone by a city or county to implement the provisions" of State law is exempt from environmental review. The proposed ordinance meets the intent and purpose of that exemption. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. City Council may suggest changes to the proposed draft ordinance;
2. City Council can continue the proposal and direct staff to address any further issues.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
The proposed ordinance will help implement Priority A (Quality of Life) contained in the Redlands Strategic Plan.
Strategic Objective 2 (Economic Vitality):
• Implement policies and programs to expand the City’s affordable housing opportunities.

Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 457 of 1055
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 8739 and approve General Plan Amendment No. 151 and determine that the proposal is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3), 15308, and 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines.
DISCUSSION:
Assembly Bill (AB) 98: AB 98 was signed on September 29, 2024, and prescribed various statewide warehouse design and build standards for any proposed new or expanded logistics use developments beginning on January 1, 2026. Among its various provisions is a requirement for cities and counties within the “warehouse concentration region” to update their respective Truck Route Maps by January 1, 2026. The “warehouse concentration region” is defined as Riverside County, San Bernardino County, and the Cities of Chino, Colton, Fontana, Jurupa Valley, Moreno Valley, Ontario, Perris, Rancho Cucamonga, Redlands, Rialto, Riverside, and San Bernardino (Gov. Code 65098(h)). Therefore, the City must update its Truck Route Map (Figure 5-7 in the 2035 General Plan) as soon as possible. The Attorney General may impose a fine against a jurisdiction that is in violation of these sections of up to $50,000 every six months if the required updates have not been made (Gov. Code section 65302.02(i)).
Criteria for Truck Routes: AB 98 implemented Government Code Section 65302.02 which provides the specific criteria by which Truck Routes should be selected. These criteria include:
Avoid residential areas and sensitive receptors (as defined by Section 65098).
Ensure that logistics use developments are sited in locations that minimize adverse impacts on residential communities and enhance transportation efficiency.
Trucks shall be routed via transportation arteries that minimize exposure to sensitive receptors.
Maximize use of arterial roads, major thoroughfares, and predominantly commercially oriented local streets (when state or interstate highways are not utilized).
Collector streets that predominantly serve commercially oriented uses shall be used for truck routes only when strictly necessary to reach existing industrial zones.
On and after January 1, 2028, all proposed development of a logistics use development, as defined in Section 65098(d), shall be accessible via arterial roads, major thoroughfares, or roads that predominantly serve commercially oriented uses. Local roads shall be considered to Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 458 of 1055
predominantly serve commercial uses if more than 50 percent of the properties fronting the road within 1,000 feet are designated for commercial or industrial use according to the local zoning ordinance.
The new criteria are aimed at tractor-trailers that serve large warehouse logistics distribution facilities, and not necessarily for defining roadways that are designed to carry the weight of any truck exceeding a maximum gross weight of over five tons. RMC Chapter 10.54, “Truck Routes,” provides exemptions for certain types of vehicles and deliveries (e.g., construction deliveries, local pickups/deliveries, public utility vehicles, RVs, etc.), as do most other municipal codes.
Description of Map Amendment: The following deletions and insertions are proposed in Figure 5-7 (Truck Route Map) of the General Plan:
Recommended Future Routes:
1. Mountain View Avenue from Interstate-10 to the North City boundary.
2. Marigold Avenue from San Bernardino Avenue to Palmetto Avenue.
3. California Street from San Bernardino Avenue to Palmetto Avenue.
4. Palmetto Avenue from Marigold Avenue to Alabama Street.
West San Bernardino Avenue from California Street to Alabama Street, including the Interstate-210 underpass.
5. 6. Almond Avenue from California Street to Alabama Street.
7. Kansas Street from W. State Street to Park Avenue.
Recommended Routes for Removal:
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 459 of 1055
Recommended Routes for Removal:
1. Nevada Street from West Lugonia Avenue to Citrus Avenue.
2. West Park Avenue west of Alabama Street.
3. Citrus Avenue west of Alabama Street.
4. Orange Avenue west of Alabama Street.
5. Alabama Street from Citrus Avenue to Barton Road.
6. San Timoteo Canyon Road from Barton Road to the South City boundary.
Tennessee Street / South San Mateo Street south of Citrus Avenue to West Cypress Avenue.
7. San Bernardino Avenue east of Interstate-210 underpass to Orange Street.
8. Texas Street / South Center Street south of San Bernardino Avenue to West Cypress Avenue.
9. West Cypress Avenue from South San Mateo Street to South University Street.
10. Orange Street / Cajon Street / Garden Street from Pearl Street to Elizabeth Street.
11. 12. East Citrus Avenue from Orange Street to South University Street.
Judson Street / Ford Street from Santa Ana River Wash to 5th Avenue and loops from South Wabash Avenue to East Citrus Avenue.
13. North Wabash Avenue from the northern City boundary to East Lugonia Avenue.
14. Review by Traffic & Parking Commission: The Redlands Traffic & Parking Commission reviewed a draft version of the updated Truck Route Map on September 25, 2025. The Commission agreed with the draft map proposed at that time and also suggested some additional changes. One suggestion was to Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 460 of 1055
remove San Timoteo Canyon Road since that roadway has not been fully improved to the width identified in the General Plan for a “Rural Arterial” (currently it is one lane in each direction with soft shoulders). Another suggestion was to remove the segments of two roadways through downtown Redlands (Orange St. from Pearl St. to Citrus Ave., and E. Citrus Ave. from Orange St. to University St.), as they traverse through the central business district as well as the Redlands High School campus.
Public Outreach Process: The public outreach efforts conducted by staff meet the requirements of subdivisions (f) and (g) of Government Code Section 65302.02. Staff contacted adjacent cities, counties (San Bernardino and Riverside), and other stakeholders (including Redlands Unified School District, Southern California Edison, and Southern California Gas Company). Notices were sent to tribal governments in accordance with Senate Bill (SB) 18, which included a 90-day response period. Staff conducted two online public workshops via Zoom on November 3 and 6, 2025.
The City of San Bernardino staff responded by providing a map of their draft AB 98 Truck Route Map, and they proposed to include their City's half of Mountain View Avenue to the north of Interstate-10 (to the Santa Ana River Wash). This will match the City of Redlands’ proposed map that includes Mountain View Avenue northerly of Interstate-10 to the Santa Ana River Wash (the boundary between Redlands and San Bernardino).
County of San Bernardino staff responded with a request to make modifications in the unincorporated “donut hole” area (in northwest Redlands), including adding segments of East San Bernardino Avenue, Palmetto Avenue, and Almond Avenue. Nevada Street is to be deleted from the Truck Route Map and is consistent with the County’s map (Nevada St. not shown as a truck route).
The County is also currently in the process of updating the County Truck Route Map.
Two community workshops were hosted online via Zoom to discuss the proposed changes to the amended Truck Route Map and gain an understanding of the community’s opinion and priorities. The first workshop was held on Monday, October 3rd and the second was held on Thursday, October 6th. Both meetings discussed the same material, which provided an overview of the AB 98 requirements, outlined public outreach efforts, and further explained the routes proposed for addition and removal. The first workshop was attended by nine individuals, and there were two individuals in attendance for the second workshop. City staff received positive feedback on the removal of several routes and a few clarifying questions regarding the criteria considered during the selection of routes, effective dates, and enforcement. No changes to the proposed routes were requested during both community workshops.
Environmental Review: The proposal is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3), 15308, and 15378(b)(5) of the California Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 461 of 1055
Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), this proposal is an organizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore does not constitute a "project" pursuant to the CEQA Guidelines. Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no possibility that the General Plan Amendment may have a significant effect on the environment, insofar as it would impose modified truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities within the City.
Additionally, if the proposal is considered a "project," the proposed General Plan Amendment is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15308 (Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment), because it will not create an environmental impact and the action will assure the maintenance, enhancement or protection of the environment through the adoption of State-imposed regulations on truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
ALTERNATIVES:
The City Council can continue the proposal and direct staff to address any further issues. (Note that the deadline for the City of Redlands to update the Truck Route Map is supposed to be January 1, 2026, pursuant to Government Code section 65098.1 (e)(2).

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Redlands certified and adopted the General Plan and Climate Action Plan Environmental Impact Report (EIR) on December 5, 2017; and WHEREAS, proposed General Plan Amendment No. 151 is necessary to ensure the City’s adopted 2035 General Plan will be in compliance with Assembly Bill (AB) 98 of 2024; and WHEREAS, the City of Redlands is located within the “warehouse concentration region” as defined in Government Code section 65098(h); and
WHEREAS, the City of Redlands must update its Truck Route Map by January 1, 2026, to comply with Government Code section 65098.1(e); and
WHEREAS on December 5, 2025, notice of the City Council’s public hearing for the proposed General Plan Amendment No. 151 was published in a newspaper of general circulation by the City Clerk; and
WHEREAS, on December 16, 2025, the City Council held a public hearing and considered the staff written and oral reports, the recommendation of staff, written public comments, and testimony by members of the public; and
WHEREAS, following the public hearing on the proposed General Plan Amendment No. 151, the City Council determined that adoption of the Amendment is in the best interests of the public health, safety, and general welfare.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDLANDS AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Exemption from environmental review. The proposed General Plan Amendment does not require environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3), 15308, and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), this proposal is an organizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment and therefore not a project. Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 464 of 1055
Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no possibility that the General Plan amendment may have a significant effect on the environment, insofar as it would impose modified truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities within the City. Additionally, if the proposal is considered a “project,” the proposed General Plan Amendment is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15308 (Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment), because it is clear that it will not create an environmental impact and the action will assure the maintenance, enhancement, or protection of the environment through the adoption of State-imposed regulations on truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.
Section 2. Description of General Plan Amendment. Amendment to Figure 5-7, titled “Truck Route Map,” contained in the 2035 General Plan is described as follows:
a) Section of Mountain View Avenue from Interstate-10 to North City boundary; change from “Major Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
b) Section of Marigold Avenue from San Bernardino Avenue to Palmetto Avenue; change from “Major Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
c) Section of California Street from San Bernardino Avenue to Palmetto Avenue; change from “Major Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
d) Section of Palmetto Avenue from Marigold Avenue to Alabama Street; change from “Major Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
e) Section of West San Bernardino Avenue from California Street to Alabama Street, including the Interstate-210 underpass; change from “Major Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
f) Section of Almond Avenue from California Street to Alabama Street; change from “Local Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
g) Section of Kansas Street from W. State Street to Park Avenue; change from “Local Road” to “Truck Route” designation.
h) Section of Nevada Street from West Lugonia Avenue to Citrus Avenue; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation.
i) Section of West Park Avenue west of Alabama Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Local Road” designation.
j) Section of Citrus Avenue west of Alabama Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Local Road” designation.
k) Section of Orange Avenue west of Alabama Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Local Road” designation.
l) Section of Alabama Street from Citrus Avenue to Barton Road; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation.
m) Section of San Timoteo Canyon Road from Barton Road to South City boundary; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation.
n) Section of Tennessee Street/ South San Mateo Street, south of Citrus Avenue to West Cypress Avenue; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation. o) Section of San Bernardino Avenue, east of Interstate-210 underpass to Orange Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 465 of 1055
p) Section of Texas Street / South Center Street, south of San Bernardino Avenue to West Cypress Avenue; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation. q) Section of West Cypress Avenue from South San Mateo Street to South University Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Roads” designation. r) Section of Orange Street / Cajon Street / Garden Street from Pearl Street to Elizabeth Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Roads” designation. s) Section of East Citrus Avenue from Orange Street to South University Street; change from “Truck Route” to “Major Roads” designation.
t) Section of Judson Street / Ford Street from Santa Ana River Wash to 5th Avenue and loops from South Wabash Avenue to East Citrus Avenue; change from “Truck Routes” to “Major Roads” designation.
u) Section of North Wabash Avenue from northern City boundary to East Lugonia Avenue, change from “Truck Route” to “Major Road” designation.
Section 3. Approval of general plan amendment. General Plan Amendment No. 151 is hereby approved as described in this Resolution, and as shown in Exhibit “A-1” and Exhibit “A2” attached hereto.
Section 4. Compliance with state law. This General Plan Amendment is adopted to implement the applicable provisions of Assembly Bill 98 (2024) as codified in Government Code section 65098 et seq., and the revised Truck Route Map meets the substantive and procedural requirements contained in Government Code section 65302.02.
Section 5. Effective date. This Resolution shall become effective upon adoption.
ADOPTED, SIGNED, AND APPROVED this 16th day of December, 2025. _________________________________

This is to advise that on December 16, 2025, the City Council of the City of Redlands approved the above-referenced project, and made the following determination:
Exempt Status: (check one)
Ministerial (Sec. 21080(b)(1); 15268);
General Exemption (15061(b)(3));
Emergency Project (Sec. 21080(b)(4); 15269(b)(c));
Categorical Exemption. State type and section number:
Statutory Exemptions. State type and section number: 15308 and 15378(b)(5) Reasons why project is exempt: The proposal is exempt from environmental review in accordance with Sections 15061(b)(3), 15308, and 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines. Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), this proposal is anorganizational or administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore not a project.
Additionally, pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), this proposal is exempt from CEQA review because there is no possibility that the general plan amendment (to Figure 5-7, Truck Routes) may have a significant effect on the environment, insofar as it would provide a modified truck route map for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities in Redlands.
No construction, development, or ground disturbance of any kind is proposed with this action.
Furthermore, even if the proposal is considered a project, the proposed general plan amendment is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15308 (Actions by Regulatory Agencies for Protection of the Environment), because it is clear that it will not create an environmental impact and the action will assure the maintenance, enhancement, or protection of the environment through the adoption of State-imposed regulations on truck routes for certain warehouses and logistics distribution facilities. Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.

Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 473 of 1055
DISCUSSION:
As a result of the elimination of redevelopment agencies in California, the City of Redlands (“City”) lost a tax increment financing (TIF) tool to invest in public facilities and the community’s qualify of life. In 2014, SB 628 created a new tax increment financing tool called the Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD). Senate Bill 852 (Dodd, 2022) authorized the creation of Climate Resilience Districts (CRDs), a form of EIFD that enables local jurisdictions to pledge future property tax increment towards the design and implementation of projects that mitigate the impacts of climate change. CRDs are directed to give priority to projects that address the needs of “under-resourced communities,” which is a term defined consistent with Health and Safety Code and Public Resources Code sections defining Disadvantaged Communities and Low-Income Communities. SB 852 states that CRDs may only finance certain types of projects that enable communities to adapt to the impacts of climate change.
By capturing future property tax increment revenue generated within the CRD as new development occurs and property values increase over time, similar to the former Redevelopment Agencies in California, CRDs enable a sustainable, ongoing revenue stream without increasing property taxes or any other taxes for landowners, residents, or businesses within or outside of the CRD boundaries.
The following chart illustrates how tax TIF and CRDs capture future revenue from new development into the CRD (note these dollars are for illustrative purposes only):
The City was originally approached by the University of Redlands in 2021 for consideration of the use of a financing district to facilitate economic development in the environs of the University campus (e.g., proposed University Village Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 474 of 1055
development project) via investment into critical infrastructure. The University team presented the concept to the City Council on April 19, 2022, where feedback was positive. The City Council unanimously supported, by roll call vote, the University of Redlands' request for the City to establish an EIFD. Staff was also directed to work with the University and consultants to prepare the necessary documents and reports to establish an EIFD to support the University Village project, and to meet with representatives of the County of San Bernardino to request its participation (and authorized the City Manager to sign and submit a letter of support for grant funding to the University of Redlands).
Since that time, the University Village Project has evolved as market and economic conditions have changed. More recently, the University team and consultant Kosmont Companies have engaged with City staff and prepared an updated, detailed analysis.
The next step in the financing district process is City Council consideration of a non-binding Resolution of Intention to eventually form the financing district.
Adoption of the City Council’s Resolution of Intention (Attachment 1) provides for the following:
Preliminary boundaries of the CRD. The CRD is proposed at this point to be focused on the University Village project area and other nearby development opportunity sites where private sector investment is anticipated in the future, as noted in Exhibit A of the Resolution of Intention.
The exact boundaries of the CRD are subject to further review and refinement as the formation process continues.
1. Type of eligible projects proposed to be financed or assisted by the CRD. The projects listed under the Resolution of Intention include all eligible projects and activities under the CRD legislation and are listed in Exhibit B to the Resolution of Intention (more specific projects will be delineated in the required Infrastructure Financing Plan prior to CRD formation). Examples of potential projects include water, sewer, flood control, renewable energy investments, projects to address extreme heat and other community facilities.
2. Use of Incremental Tax Revenue. The Resolution of Intention anticipates that a portion (not all) of the City’s future property tax increment revenue generated within the CRD will be allocated to the CRD. The exact amounts will be determined in a future resolution to be considered by the City Council. It is possible that the County of San Bernardino may additionally participate in the CRD, in which case, a portion of the County’s property tax increment revenue will also be allocated to the CRD.
3. Establishes a CRD Board to serve as the governing board of the CRD. Consistent with the CRD legislation, the CRD Board membership is proposed to be initially comprised of three members of the City Council and two members of the public appointed by the City Council. If another taxing entity, such as the County of San Bernardino, ultimately elects to partner with the City in the CRD, then the District Board would be revised in accordance with EIFD and CRD law, such as to include two members of the City Council, one member of that taxing entity’s legislative body (e.g., County Supervisor), one member of the public appointed by
4. Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 475 of 1055
the City Council, and one member of the public appointed by the legislative of that taxing entity (e.g., County Board of Supervisors).
Sets a time and place for the first public hearing on the CRD to be conducted by the CRD Board. There will be multiple public meetings and hearings required as part of the CRD process. The first formal CRD public hearing is tentatively scheduled for February 18, at 6:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, in the City Hall Council Chambers, 35 Cajon Street, Redlands, California.
5. Approval of the Resolution of Intention and appointments to the CRD Board begin a series of activities that will take place over the next several months, primarily by the CRD Board. The following schedule outlines the various key tasks and milestones in the formation process. As the following proposed schedule indicates, the final City Council approvals are expected to follow in the first nine months of calendar year 2026.

The IFP referenced in the timeline above becomes the roadmap for the work to be accomplished by the CRD. The IFP will analyze the tax increment anticipated to be generated by the properties in the CRD boundary, consider the cost of various infrastructure options to be considered for investment, evaluate the bonding capacity created by the tax increment generated, estimated general Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 476 of 1055
fund fiscal impacts, and provide a plan for how the CRD will capture tax increment to fund infrastructure investments. The IFP contents are currently under development and will be provided in draft format to the public, CRD Board and City Council (and potentially County Board of Supervisors) in accordance with the schedule above.
Public information is an important part of the CRD formation process. A web page will be developed that will serve as a resource to interested stakeholders.
Landowners and residents within the CRD boundaries will also receive mailed notifications of public meetings and hearings throughout the formation process, and public hearings will additionally be advertised via local newspaper. In the event of a majority protest by property owners or residents within the boundaries, the formation proceedings would be discontinued.
The City Council’s adoption of the Resolution of Intention and establishment of the CRD Board are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as they are actions solely related to the creation of a government funding mechanism and the administrative or organizational activities of the City.
Therefore, these actions do not constitute a “project” pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(4) and 15378(b)(5). Neither of these actions could result in a physical change in the environment because the City has not committed itself to any specific project(s) that could be funded by the CRD.

The Council may choose to modify, reject or table this item for future discussion.

Fiscal Impact
Fiscal Year: FY 2026
Discussion:
There is no immediate fiscal impact for establishing the Redlands CRD or CRD Board. If ultimately established, the CRD would create the opportunity to use tax increment financing to fund targeted infrastructure investments in the City.
Further information regarding fiscal impact will be analyzed as part of the development of the IFP, which will be presented to the CRD Board and City Council as noted in the timeline above.

City Council Meeting J. 2.
DATE: 12/16/2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Consideration of the Sole Source invoice payment to Systems & Software, Inc. for support of the enQuesta Utility Database for Customer Management in an amount of $291,207 for annual software hosting, maintenance and support (Management
Services/Finance Director Garcia)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff's recommendation is appropriate, the following motion is provided:
I move to approve payment of the invoice to Systems & Software, Inc. (“S&S”), providers of the City’s utility billing software, in an amount of $291,207 for annual software hosting, maintenance and support for the calendar year 2026.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council approve payment of an invoice to Systems & Software, Inc. (“S&S”), providers of the City’s utility billing software, in an amount of $291,207 for annual software hosting, maintenance and support to provide technical support for all areas related to the operation of City’s utility database and customer management software.
DISCUSSION:
Since 2004, the City has used the enQuesta Utility Database and Customer Management software. Version upgrades were performed in 2008, 2015 and a recent completion in August 2025 to the newest software Version 6. The enQuesta Version 6 software includes functional improvements and enhancements, necessary security features and conversion of data to a hosted solution. It provides billing, collections and cash receipting functionality for the customer service and revenue offices, in addition to managing over 80,000 customer utility accounts for water, wastewater, solid waste, household Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 486 of 1055
hazardous waste and street fees. This system is not only vital for the accurate and timely production of 130,000 utility bills annually, it is also critical to the operational efficiencies and integrity of the records contained therein.
S&S supports this proprietary software in the form of technical assistance, troubleshooting, quarterly meetings, no-cost attendance at annual enQuesta user conferences, monthly webcasts and an assigned account manager.
S&S has been investing in their product and service levels to improve experience for City staff and the ability to serve City customers. This is a sole source purchase due to the fact that the enQuesta software hosts the City customer data as a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution, and is proprietary making software programming and maintenance protocols unavailable on the general market. These services are only available through S&S, owner of the software product.
Paying for support and maintenance for this hosted SaaS solution is a necessary investment to ensure continued system performance, security, and scalability. The expertise and ongoing updates provided through these services mitigate risks, reduce downtime, and enhance the long-term value of the SaaS solution.
ALTERNATIVES:
City Council may choose not to approve the payment with Systems & Software and provide alternative direction to staff.

15 When the client has purchased Extended DR service, the service will be used to sync a live copy of the production database server from the client’s primary data center region to a geographically dispersed secondary datacenter region.
All storage volumes from each server are backed up from the client’s primary data center region to a geographically dispersed secondary datacenter region for offsite storage. In the event of disaster in the primary data center, your production environments can be recreated alongside the synced copy of the database server in the secondary region when Extended DR services have been purchased.
Otherwise, they will be rebuilt with the most recent production database backup.

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
SUBJECT: Consideration of a Public Works Construction Contract with Matich Corporation for the Pavement Management Program (PMP) 2025 Street Resurfacing Project for an amount not-to-exceed
$5,566,094, approval of an additional appropriation in the amount of $1,566,094, and determination that the Project is categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15301 of the State's Guidelines for Implementing the California Environmental Quality Act (Interim Municipal Utilities and Engineering Director Casey)
MOTION(S):
If the City Council determines that staff recommendation is appropriate, the following motions are provided:
I move that the City Council determine approval of the contract and construction of the PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project as categorically exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15301 of the State’s guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act;
1. I move that the City Council approve the PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project Plans and Specifications, and award a Public Works Construction Contract to Matich Corporation for an amount not-to-exceed $5,566,094; and
2. I move that the City Council approve an additional appropriation in the amount of $1,566,094.
3. Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 506 of 1055
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that City Council determine approval of a Public Works Construction Contract and construction of the PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project as categorically exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15301 of the State’s guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act. Staff further recommends City Council approve the PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project Plans and Specifications, award a Public Works Construction Contract to Matich Corporation for an amount not-to-exceed $5,566,094, and approve an additional appropriation of $1,566,094 from the unassigned PARIS Fund balance.
DISCUSSION:
The City's 2020 Pavement Management Program (PMP 2020) identifies the scheduled maintenance and reconstruction of City streets at the appropriate time intervals in order to extend their overall life expectancy in the most efficient and economical manner. In addition, the PMP 2020 establishes a comprehensive process to prioritize the rehabilitation of the City’s street system and is a powerful tool to determine how best to utilize the City’s available financial resources. The PMP 2020 includes a project forecasting strategy that follows the PMP maintenance and rehabilitation project budgets and addresses the specific needs of each street. Since completion of the PARIS program, the City has completed paving of approximately one hundred forty (140) lane miles of streets.
Staff utilized the PMP 2020 to prepare plans and specifications for the PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project (Project), which includes resurfacing approximately forty (40) lane miles of streets, selective replacement of curb, gutter and striping replacement. All known utility agencies operating within the City have been contacted to coordinate construction activities within the Project's limits.
Staff prepared plans and specifications and advertised the Project for bidding.
On October 28, 2025, the City Clerk’s Office received and opened the following seven (7) bids for the Project:
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 507 of 1055
BID OPENING REPORT SUMMARY

Matich Corporation, San Bernardino, CA $5,566,094.00
Vance Corporation, Beaumont, CA $6,659,065.22
All American Asphalt, Corona, CA $6,875,372.20
Onyx Paving Company Inc., Yorba Linda, CA $6,963,000.00 R.J. Noble Company, Orange, CA $7,164,142.76
Hardy & Harper, Inc., Lake Forest, CA $7,200,000.00
Romero General Construction Corp., Escondido, CA $7,588,888.00 Each bid was reviewed by staff to determine responsiveness to bid requirements, and Matich Corporation was determined to be the lowest responsive bidder. Staff recommends awarding a Public Works Contract to Matich Corporation for an amount not-to-exceed $5,566,094. The Project will be completed within one hundred (100) working days after the date of issuance of a Notice to Proceed to the Contractor.
This project is categorically exempt from environmental review in accordance with Section 15301 of the State's guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act, as the Project involves rehabilitation and maintenance of existing streets and there is no expansion to the existing use.

FAITHFUL PERFORMANCE BOND
Whereas, the City of Redlands (“City”), State of California, and Matich Corporation (hereinafter designated as "Principal") have entered into an agreement dated December 16th, 2025 (“Agreement”) whereby Principal agrees to install and complete certain public improvements (the “Work”), which said Agreement is identified as PMP 2025 Street Resurfacing Project, Project No. 211013 and is hereby referred to and made a part hereof; and Whereas, said Principal is required under the terms of the Agreement to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of the Work, now, therefore, we, the Principal and, _____________________________, as Surety, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the penal sum of Five Million Five Hundred Sixty-Six Thousand Ninety-Four dollars ($5,566,094) lawful money of the United States, for the payment of which sum we bind ourselves, and our heirs, successors, executors and administrators, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.
The condition of this obligation is such that if the above bounded Principal, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and provisions in the Agreement and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on his or its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their true intent and meaning, and shall faithfully fulfill the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship, and shall defend, indemnify and save harmless the City and its elected officials, officers, agents and employees, as therein stipulated, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.
As a part of the obligation secured hereby and in addition to the face amount specified therefor, there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the City in successfully enforcing such obligations, all to be taxed as costs and included in the judgment rendered.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Work, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year or longer if required by the Agreement after the acceptance of the work by the City, during which time if the Principal shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage made evident during this period from the date of completion of the Work, and resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship, the above obligation in penal sum thereof shall remain in full force and effect. The obligations of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of the Principal remains.
Whenever the Principal shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the Agreement, the City having performed the City obligations thereunder, the Surety shall promptly remedy the default, or shall promptly, at the City’s option:
1. Complete the Work in accordance with its terms and conditions; or
2. Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Work in accordance with its terms and conditions, and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a contract between such bidder and the City, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Work less the balance of the Agreement price, but not exceeding, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable hereunder, the Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 514 of 1055
amount set forth above. The term “balance of the Agreement price,” as used in this paragraph, shall mean the total amount payable to the Principal by the City under the Agreement and any modifications thereto, less the amount previously properly paid by the City to the Principal.
Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Principal.
Surety shall not utilize the Principal in completing the Work nor shall Surety accept a bid from the Principal for completion of the Work if the City, when declaring the Principal in default, notifies Surety of the City’s objection to the Principal’s further participation in the completion of the Work.
No right of action shall accrue on the bond to or for the use of any person or corporation other than the City named herein or the successors or assigns of the City. Any suit under this bond must be instituted within the applicable statute of limitations period.
The said Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Agreement or to the work to be performed thereunder or the Specifications accompanying the same shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Agreement or to the work or to the specifications.
No final settlement between the City and the Principal shall abridge the right of any beneficiary hereunder whose claim may be unsatisfied.
The Principal and Surety agree that if the City is required to engage the services of any attorney in connection with the enforcement of this bond, each shall pay the City’s reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred, with or without suit, in addition to the above sum.
In witness whereof, this instrument has been duly executed by the Principal and Surety above named, on , 2025.

Contractor expressly waives all rights to subrogation against the City, its officers, employees and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by Contractor for City by expressly waiving Contractor’s immunity for injuries to Contractor’s employees and agrees that the obligation to indemnify, defend and hold harmless provided for in this Agreement extend to any claim brought by or on behalf of any employee of Contractor. This waiver is mutually negotiated by the parties. This shall not apply to any damage resulting from the sole negligence of City, its agents and employees. To the extent any of the damages referenced herein were caused by or resulted from the concurrent negligence of City, its agents or employees, the obligations provided herein to indemnify, defend and hold harmless are valid and enforceable only to the extent of the negligence of contractor, its officers, agents and employees.
Subcontractors. The prime contractor shall include all subcontractors as insureds under its policies or shall furnish separate certificates and endorsements from each subcontractor.
The Contractor shall not assign or sublet the contract, in whole or in part, without the written consent of the City, nor shall the contractor assign any monies due to, or to become due to, Contractor hereunder without prior written consent of the City.
The Contractor shall be fully responsible to the City for the acts and omissions of the subcontractor and persons either directly or indirectly employed by the Contractor. Consent to subcontracting part of the work shall, in no way, release the Contractor from responsibility for performance of the work, and Contractor will be held, in all respects, accountable for the same as if no consent had been given. The Contractor shall give personal attention to this work which is sublet. Nothing contained in the contract documents shall create any contractual relation between any subcontractor and the City.
Hold Harmless and Indemnification. Contractor shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend City and its elected officials, agents and employees and the Consultant from and against any and all claims, losses or liability, including attorney’s fees, arising from injury or death to persons or damage to property occasioned by any act, omission or failure to act of Contractor, its subcontractors, and any officers, agents and employees in performing the work required by this Agreement. Contractor’s obligations under this provision shall not be limited in any way by any terms of this Agreement, or the insurance limits.

The Contractor shall, prior to Notice to Proceed, procure all other permits and licenses as stipulated in the GENERAL CONDITIONS.
In addition, no contractor or subcontractor may be listed on a bid proposal for a public works project (submitted on or after March 1, 2015 or awarded on or after April 1, 2015) unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code section 1725.5.

6. SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES:
In accordance with applicable provisions of State law, the Contractor will be permitted to substitute qualified securities in lieu of retention of withheld progress payments by the Owner.
7. SUBCONTRACTORS:
Pursuant to Section 4105 of the California Public Contract Code, the bidder may not circumvent the requirement to list subcontractors by the device of listing one subcontractor, who in turn sublets portions constituting a majority of the work covered by the contract.
A. Pursuant to California Government Code section 4106, subcontractors who will perform work or labor or render services in an amount in excess of one-half of one percent of the Contractor’s total bid shall be set forth in a list of subcontractors within the bid documents. Such list shall be accompanied by an experienced statement with pertinent information regarding similar projects and other evidence of qualifications for each such subcontractor, supplier, individual, or entity if requested by City. If City or engineer, after doing an investigation, has reasonable objection to any proposed subcontractor, supplier, individual, or entity, City may, before the notice of award is given, request the apparent successful bidder to submit a substitute, without an increase in the bid.
B. If the apparent successful bidder declines to make any such substitution, City may award the contract to the next lowest bidder that proposes to use acceptable subcontractors, suppliers, individuals, or entities declining to make the request and substitutions will not constitute grounds for forfeiture of the bid security of any bidder. Any subcontractor, supplier, individual or entity so listed and against which City makes no written objection prior to the giving of the notice of award will be deemed acceptable by City subject to verification of such assessments after the effective date of the agreement as provided herein.
8. NON DEBARRED CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS

10.1 General. Only a bidder who has actually submitted a Bid Proposal is eligible to submit a bid protest against another bidder. Subcontractors are not eligible to submit bid protests. A bidder may not rely on the bid protest submitted by another bidder, but must timely pursue its own protest. If required by City, the protesting bidder must submit a nonrefundable fee in the amount specified by City, based upon City’s reasonable costs to administer the bid protest. Any such fee must be submitted to City no later than the Bid Protest Deadline, unless otherwise specified. For purposes of this Section, a “working day” means a day that City is open for normal business, and excludes weekends and holidays as observed by the City.
10.2 Protest Contents. The bid protest must contain a complete statement of the basis for the protest and all supporting documentation. Material submitted after the Bid Protest Deadline will not be considered. The protest must refer to the specific portion or portions of the Contract Documents upon which the protest is based. The protest must include the name, address, email address, and telephone number of the person representing the protesting bidder if different from the protesting bidder.
10.3 Copy to Protested Bidder. A copy of the protest and all supporting documents must be concurrently transmitted by fax or by email, by or before the Bid Protest Deadline, to the protested bidder and any other bidder who has a reasonable prospect of receiving an award depending on the outcome of the protest.
10.4 Response to Protest. The protested bidder may submit a written response to the protest, provided the response is received by the City Clerk’s Office before 5:00 p.m., within two working days after the Bid Protest Deadline or after actual receipt of the bid protest, whichever is sooner (the “Response Deadline”).

10.6 Exclusive Remedy. The procedure and time limits set forth in this section are mandatory and are the bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy in the event of a bid protest. A bidder’s failure to comply with these procedures will constitute a waiver of any right to further pursue a bid protest, including filing a Government Code Claim or initiation of legal proceedings.
10.7 Right to Award. The City Council reserves the right to award the Contract to the bidder it has determined to be the responsible bidder submitting the lowest responsive bid, and to issue a notice to proceed with the Contract notwithstanding any pending or continuing challenge to its determination.

301-7 FULL DEPTH RECLAMATION WITH MECHANICAL STABILIZATION (FDR25) Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 624 of 1055
GC 44
301-7.1 Description. This rehabilitation alternative consists of pulverizing the existing asphalt concrete (AC) layer along with the underlying unbound material to a depth of 6, 9 or 12 inches per plan and specifications. The properties of this layer are considered to be similar to an Aggregate Subbase material with a modulus of at least 25 ksi.
The manufacture of the recycled base course shall be done in-place by pulverizing and blending the existing AC layer and base materials, if present. The process shall be accomplished in accordance with these specifications and conform to the lines and grades shown in the plans or as established by the engineer.
301-7.2 Construction. The asphalt concrete surfacing and underlying base materials shall be pulverized such that 100 percent of the material will pass a two-inch sieve and a minimum of 90 percent will pass a one and one-half inch sieve. All materials other than rock and pulverized asphalt concrete shall be broken up such that these materials will pass a one inch sieve. The pulverized materials shall be free of roots, weeds, wood, and construction debris. All grass and other vegetation shall be removed from the edge of the exiting pavement or lip of gutter pan to prevent contamination of the pulverized bituminous material during the milling operation.
Trimming and disposal of excess material, if required, will be performed on the intimate mixture of pulverized asphalt concrete, base materials and subgrade soil. Excess pulverized material is the surplus that results after trimming and grading the pulverized pavement section to the lines and grades matching existing and/or per plans and specifications.
Do not start pulverized roadbed activities if the ambient air temperature is below 40F. If the ambient air temperature falls below 40F, you may only compact and finish pulverized roadbed.
Before starting daily pulverized roadbed activities, sweep the pulverized roadbed area constructed the previous day to remove loose material.
301-7.3 Surface Preparation. Before pulverized roadbed activities start, prepare the existing roadway surface by:
1. Clearing foreign matter including vegetation
2. Removing standing water
3. Referencing the profile and cross slope
4. Marking the proposed longitudinal cut lines on the existing pavement as follows:
4.1. Cut lines must coincide with points where the existing cross slope changes, approximately at the centerline and edge of traveled way
4.2. Cut lines must indicate the sequence of the cuts
5. Referencing existing lane lines and striping layout
Final subgrade surface shall slope away from the street centerline to a maximum of 3% grade.
Pulverized asphalt material must be used as base material to meet new cross slope requirements.
Native sub-grade material may need to be hauled off to allow for the use of all pulverized base material. No additional compensation will be allowed for any sub-grade removal and haul-off if required. Any contaminated material will be removed and disposed of by the contractor off site at his expense. Any shortage of material, caused by premature disposal of the indicated surplus Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 625 of 1055
GC 45
material by the contractor, shall be replaced by it and no additional compensation will be allowed for such replacement.
301-7.4 Spreading, Mixing, and Compacting. Do not use a heating device to soften the pavement. Remove any visible oversized materials in the pulverized roadbed mixture prior to shaping and compacting. If you encounter unstable subgrade or rocks greater than 4 inches in the roadway section, notify the Engineer. The Engineer determines the extent of the unsuitable material and the corrective measures to be taken.
According to the Section 301-2.3, the compaction shall always be commenced along the edge of the area to be compacted and the roller shall gradually advance toward the center of the area to be compacted. Rollers shall be operated along lines parallel or concentric with the centerline of the road being constructed, and no material variation therefrom will be permitted. All rollers must be maintained in good mechanical and working condition.
The relative compaction of each layer of compacted base material shall not be less than 95 percent.
ASTM D2922, Methods of Density of Soil and Soil Aggregate in Place by Nuclear Methods, (or ASTM D1556). After compaction, the sub-grade shall be firm, and unyielding. 301-7.5 Finishing. The finished pulverized roadbed surface must not vary more than 0.05 foot from the lower edge of a 12-foot straight edge laid in directions parallel and perpendicular to the centerline. Variations within the above specified tolerances shall be compensating so that the average grade and cross section specified are met. The finished surface must be free from segregation, tearing, and scarring, and have a uniform surface texture throughout the work limits. 301-8 FULL DEPTH RECLAMATION WITH CEMENT STABILIZATION (FDR-200) 301-8.1 Description. This rehabilitation alternative consists of pulverizing the existing asphalt concrete (AC) layer along with the underlying unbound material to a depth of 6, 9 or 12 inches per plan and specifications. The properties of this layer are considered to be similar to an Aggregate Subbase material with a modulus of at least 200 ksi.
The manufacture of the recycled base course shall be done in-place by pulverizing and blending the existing AC layer and base materials, if present, and adding cement. Micro-cracking of the completed cement stabilized surface is required before HMA is to be placed directly on top of the cement treated surface, regardless of the AC thickness. The process shall be accomplished in accordance with these specifications and conform to the lines and grades shown in the plans or as established by the engineer.
The cement content must be 2% by dry weight of FDR with cement with a dry unit weight of 130 lb/cu ft for 6” FDR section. The cement content must be 3% by dry weight of FDR with cement with a dry unit weight of 130 lb/cu ft for 9” FDR section. The cement content must be 4% by dry weight of FDR with cement with a dry unit weight of 130 lb/cu ft for 12” FDR section. Cement must be Type II or Type V Portland cement specified in ASTM C 150/150M.

301-8.2 Construction. The asphalt concrete surfacing and underlying base materials shall be pulverized such that 100 percent of the material will pass a two-inch sieve and a minimum of 90 percent will pass a one and one-half inch sieve. All materials other than rock and pulverized asphalt concrete shall be broken up such that these materials will pass a one inch sieve. The pulverized materials shall be free of grass and vegetation, and construction debris to prevent contamination of the pulverized materials. Mixing shall continue until, and at the speed of the recycling unit adjusted to ensure, a homogenous mixture of the above materials and pulverized materials are achieved.
Trimming and disposal of excess material, if required, will be performed on the intimate mixture of pulverized asphalt concrete, base materials and subgrade soil. Excess pulverized material is the surplus that results after trimming and grading the pulverized pavement section to the lines and grades matching existing and/or per plans and specifications. Excess pulverized material shall consist of non-treated well mixed pulverized AC pavement and subgrade.
Do not start pulverized roadbed activities if the ambient air temperature is below 40F. If the ambient air temperature falls below 40F, you may only compact and finish pulverized roadbed.
Before starting daily pulverized roadbed activities, sweep the pulverized roadbed area constructed the previous day to remove loose material.
301-8.3 Surface Preparation. Before pulverized roadbed activities start, prepare the existing roadway surface by:
1. Clearing foreign matter including vegetation
2. Removing standing water
3. Referencing the profile and cross slope
4. Marking the proposed longitudinal cut lines on the existing pavement as follows:
4.1. Cut lines must coincide with points where the existing cross slope changes, approximately at the centerline and edge of traveled way
4.2. Cut lines must indicate the sequence of the cuts
5. Referencing existing lane lines and striping layout
Final pavement surface shall slope away from the street centerline to a maximum of 3% grade.
Pulverized material must be used as base material to meet new cross slope requirements. Native sub-grade material may need to be hauled off to allow for the use of all the pulverized base material. No additional compensation will be allowed for any sub-grade removal and haul-off if required. Any contaminated material will be removed and disposed of by the contractor off site at his expense. Any shortage of material, caused by premature disposal of the indicated surplus material by the contractor, shall be replaced by it and no additional compensation will be allowed for such replacement.
301-8.4 Spreading, Mixing, and Compacting. Do not use a heating device to soften the pavement. Remove any visible oversized materials in the pulverized roadbed mixture before shaping and compacting. If you encounter unstable subgrade or rocks greater than 4 inches in the roadway section, notify the Engineer. The Engineer determines the extent of the unsuitable material and the corrective measures to be taken.

Recycling shall be performed to the depth provided in the plans, while incorporating stabilizing agents, mineral filler, additional aggregate and water. Mixing shall continue until, and the speed of the recycling unit adjusted to ensure, a homogenous mixture of the above materials and pulverized materials is achieved. Pre-cutting, grading and light compacting of the recycled material shall be performed prior to incorporation of the stabilizing. Spread cement uniformly over the full roadway surface width. Do not spread cement more than 30 minutes before mixing. Do not apply dry cement in windy conditions that will result in dust outside the FDR with cement area. The application rate must be the mix design rate or the ordered application rate in lb/sq yd ±
0.5 percent. The application rate of all stabilizing agents shall be continuously monitored. If the measured application rate falls outside the above tolerance, then the recycling operations shall be stopped and corrected before proceeding. Do not spread cement and aggregate before pulverizing.
Water must be injected through the pulverizing machine. The injection rate of mixing water must be sufficient to produce the FDR with cement material mixing moisture content. The water content of the stabilized material shall be monitored closely to ensure proper compaction. Mark where the center of the pulverizing drum stops. Start the following cut on this alignment at least 2 feet behind the mark. Before compacting, remove solids larger than 3 inches in any dimension by hand.
Immediately after pulverizing and mixing, compact FDR with cement to the minimum relative compaction. Do not allow more than 2 hours between final mixing of the pulverized material with cement and completion of initial compaction before trimming. During grading and final compaction add water to maintain the mixing moisture content as described in the mix design. Do not allow more than 2 hours to elapse from the time water is added to the aggregate and cement to completion of final compaction after trimming.
Longitudinal joints between adjacent stabilization passes shall be overlapped at least 4 inches.
Transverse joints between the recycling process shall be saw-cut, if necessary, to provide a vertical clean face to ensure proper compaction. Compaction of cementitious stabilizer begins within 20 minutes after mixing and achieving gradation and moisture requirements.
According to the Section 301-2.3, the compaction shall always be commenced along the edge of the area to be compacted and the roller shall gradually advance toward the center of the area to be compacted. Rollers shall be operated along lines parallel or concentric with the centerline of the road being constructed, and no material variation therefrom will be permitted. All rollers must be maintained in good mechanical and working condition.
The relative compaction of each layer of compacted base material shall not be less than 95 percent.
ASTM D2922, Methods of Density of Soil and Soil Aggregate in Place by Nuclear Methods, (or ASTM D1556). After compaction, the sub-grade shall be firm, and unyielding.
Construction joints shall have vertical faces and shall be made in thoroughly compacted material.
Additional mixture shall not be placed against the construction joint until the joint has been approved by the Engineer. The face of the cut joint shall be lean and free of deleterious material and shall be kept moist until the placing of the adjacent FDR with cement.

301-8.5 Finishing. Once the entire working width (full lane width plus effected shoulder width) has been stabilized, and only after primary compaction has been completed, the entire working width shall be graded to the required profile and cross-slope. Disturbance to the stabilized and primary compacted material shall be kept to a minimum during this grading and shaping operation.
The finished pulverized roadbed surface must not vary more than 0.05 foot from the lower edge of a 12-foot straight edge laid in directions parallel and perpendicular to the centerline. Variations within the above specified tolerances shall be compensating so that the average grade and cross section specified are met. The finished surface must be free from segregation, tearing, and scarring, and have a uniform surface texture throughout the work limits.
Immediately after compaction, apply water and roll with no vibration. The finished surface must be free of ruts, bump, indentations, segregation, raveling, and any loose material.
The completed cement treated subgrade shall be moist cured continuously until it is in a firm and unyielding condition. The cement treated subgrade shall be kept free from heavy traffic during the curing period or until the asphalt concrete surfacing is placed whichever is less, unless otherwise directed by the Engineer. Moisture curing shall be the only method of curing prior to microcracking.
Micro-cracking shall be performed with several vibratory roller passes 48 to 72 hours after finish grading to prevent severe, wide cracks from forming thus reduces the potential for reflective cracking through the HMA layer. Micro-cracking shall be performed before the application of asphaltic emulsion curing seal. After micro-cracking is complete additional moisture curing may be used. Any additional water required to achieve maximum density shall be applied by spraying the surface of the stabilized material with light applications. Care shall be taken so as not to overapply additional water to any areas of the stabilized material.
While open to traffic and before placing HMA, maintain the FDR with cement surface free of ruts, bumps, indentations, raveling, and segregation. If FDR with cement material is damaged, it shall be repaired by removing and replacing the entire depth of affected layers in the damaged area.
Feathering will not be permitted for repair of low areas.
Asphaltic emulsion curing seal must be applied on the completed cement treated base immediately before placing HMA. Asphaltic emulsion curing seal must comply with Caltrans Standard Section 94, Grade SS1 or CSS1. Dilute and thoroughly mix asphaltic emulsion for curing seal at a ratio of 1 part water to 1 part asphaltic emulsion. The water must no cause premature separation of the emulsion. Uniformly apply the diluted curing seal at a rate of 0.1 gal/yd2 of cement treated base surface.

SECTION 01254 CHANGE ORDERS
PART ONE -- GENERAL
1.1 REQUIREMENTS
Payment to the Contractor, or credit to the City, for any change, addition, deletion or extra to the Work, or settlement of any Claim, covered by any Change Order, shall be determined by the methods set forth herein. The Engineer may change the Plans and Specifications, character of the Work, or quantity of Work provided the total arithmetic dollar value of all such changes, both additive and deductive, does not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Contract Price. Should it become necessary to exceed this limitation, the change shall be by written Supplemental Agreement between the Contractor and the City, which shall be executed by a Change Order.
Unless otherwise stipulated, “Unit Prices” include all costs necessary to furnish, install and complete the Work. The “Unit Prices” include all direct costs for labor, equipment and materials, all insurance and bond costs, all field and office supervisors and assistants, all onsite project administration, security costs, the cost of small tools and consumables, incidental job burdens, and all general home office expenses and no separate allowance will be made therefor. Assistants to field and office supervisors include all clerical, stenographic, and general office help. Incidental job burdens include, but is not limited to, office equipment and supplies, temporary toilets, telephone, utilities, safety equipment, warning devices, personal protective equipment, and conformance to OSHA requirements. Project administration includes, but is not limited to, review and coordination, estimating, engineering, scheduling, and expediting relative to Change Orders, and updating and furnishing Record Drawings to incorporate changes, schedule update, supervision not applied solely to the Work of the Change Order, home office salaries and expenses, and City of Redlands Business Tax.
A. Unit Prices
Unit prices stipulated in the Bid or itemized in the approved Schedule of Values shall be utilized, where they are applicable and determined reasonable by the Engineer. In the event that the Change Order results in a change in the original quantity of more than twenty-five percent (25%), either increase or decrease, then either the Engineer or the Contractor may request a review of the unit price to determine if a new unit price shall be mutually determined by negotiation. Any new unit price mutually determined under this Subsection shall only apply to the units in excess of one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the original quantity for overruns. In case of underruns, the unit price stipulated in the Bid shall be applied to the first twenty-five percent (25%) of the actual quantity of work performed and the new mutually determined price shall be applied to the quantity between twenty-five percent (25%) and seventy-five percent (75%) of the original quantity.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 663 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-2
Renegotiated unit prices or unit prices for new items added to the Contract by Change Order shall be determined in accordance with Subsections B through G.
Whether stipulated in the Bid, itemized in the approved Schedule of Values or renegotiated, the unit prices used for payment constitute the total adjustment with no further costs owed for overhead, impact, profit, delay or impact to unchanged portions of the Contract, or any other reason. The unit price shall be full and final compensation as described in Subsection D.
The cost proposals for renegotiated unit prices shall be presented in accordance with the provisions of Subsections B through G. Should any Bid Item be deleted in its entirety, the amount bid for that bid item shall be subtracted from the total Contract amount. The Contractor shall be paid only for the actual cost incurred prior to the notification of such deletion for that Bid Item.
B. Lump Sum
The Engineer and the Contractor may mutually determine a total sum for the Extra Work. The Contractor shall summarize the total cost and furnish a breakdown of the proposed lump sum costs satisfactory to the Engineer in accordance with Subsections B through G. Such lump sum costs shall be full and final compensation as described in Subsection D. The Contractor’s quotation shall conform to the requirements of Section 01251- Change Order Requests, and be submitted in the Change Order Cost Summary Form provided (see Attachment 01251-A1). The Change Order Cost Summary Form cannot be used to nullify or supercede any specification or contractual provision.
If the method or amount of payment cannot be agreed prior to performing the Extra Work, the Engineer may unilaterally issue a Change Order in the amount determined reasonable by the Engineer for the Extra Work and direct the Contractor to proceed immediately. The Engineer also has the option to issue a Change Order directing the Work be done on a Time and Materials basis with the Contractor providing all labor, equipment, and materials necessary to complete the Work in a satisfactory manner and within a reasonable period of time.
Estimates for lump sum quotations and accounting for Time and Materials work shall be limited to direct expenditures necessitated specifically by the subject Extra Work, and shall be segregated as follows:
1. Labor, up to and including working general foremen, who are directly assigned to the Extra Work. Employees identified as superintendents or non-working general foremen shall not be charged as labor on Extra Work.
The labor costs shall include actual documented payroll costs including wages, payroll taxes as established by law (i.e., FICA, Federal and State Unemployment Taxes), fringe benefits as established by negotiated labor agreements, and any insurance costs (such as Worker's Compensation and General Liability Insurance but shall not include Automobile Liability Insurance or any other insurance costs). A detailed breakdown of those Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 664 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-3
subcomponents of labor costs, by all crafts shall be submitted to the Engineer, by the Contractor and all Subcontractors, for approval, as part of the documentation of labor costs, within ten (10) working days after issuance of the Notice to Proceed. No other subcomponents of labor costs shall be considered, unless approved in writing by the Engineer.
The labor cost is not allowed to be increased by using labor classifications with paygrades higher than necessary to accomplish the Work.
2. Materials: The cost of materials used in performing the Extra Work will be the cost, including sales tax and freight, to the purchaser, whether Contractor, Subcontractor or other forces, from the supplier thereof, except as follows:
a. Cash or trade discounts available to the purchaser shall be credited to the City notwithstanding the fact that such discounts may not have been taken by the Contractor.
b. For materials secured by other than a direct purchase and direct billing to the purchaser, the cost shall be deemed to be the price paid to the actual supplier as determined by the Engineer. Supplier markup, except for actual costs incurred in the handling of such materials, will not be allowed.
c. Payment for materials from sources owned wholly or in part by the purchaser shall not exceed the price paid by the purchaser for similar materials from said sources on contract items or the current wholesale price for such materials delivered to the Jobsite, whichever price is lower.
d. If, in the opinion of the Engineer, the cost of materials is excessive, or the Contractor does not furnish satisfactory evidence of the cost of such materials, then the cost shall be deemed to be the lowest current wholesale price for the quantity concerned, delivered to the Jobsite less cash or trade discount. The City reserves the right to furnish materials for the Work and no claim shall be made by the Contractor for costs and profit on such materials.
e. For the purposes of this Section, a "Supplier" is defined as any person or persons, firm or business, who supplies materials of construction and/or permanent equipment, but who does not perform any portion of the Work of the Contract on site, for the Contractor, except that labor or labor supervision which may be required by some manufacturers as part of their equipment installation for warranty or other purposes.

CHANGE ORDERS 01254-4
3. Equipment Costs, including ownership, lease or rental costs, as well as operating costs, for individual equipment units whose replacement value is in excess of $500. Transportation and set up costs shall be included, but only if the equipment is imported to the worksite solely to perform work on the Extra Work described in the Change Order and the Contractor can demonstrate that the changed work cannot or could not be performed economically with equipment already at the site. Equipment costs shall be determined in accordance with the requirements set forth in Subsection G.
4. Small tools, equipment, consumables and incidental costs: No separate payment will be made for the use of small tools or equipment with a replacement value of $500 or less. This applies to tools and equipment owned by the Contractor or its subcontractors of any tier. Also, no separate payment will be made for fuel, lubricants, tool or equipment repairs, tool or equipment maintenance, consumables, drinking water, sanitary facilities or other incidentals. These costs are already included as a part of Markup.
5. Subcontractor Costs, including their overhead and profit, provided that such costs are direct costs to the Contractor for performing the Extra Work as set forth in Subsections B through G.
C. Time and Materials Work
The costs of all Changed/Extra Work submitted under the Time and Materials (T&M) method shall be formulated in accordance with the provisions of Subsections B through I.
Unless otherwise stipulated on the Change Order, the “Not-to-Exceed” amount for all T&M Change Orders is $10000. The Contractor is responsible for tracking costs and for notifying the Engineer in writing when costs approach 50% and 75% of the “Not-to-Exceed” amount. In addition, if the Changed/Extra Work cannot be completed within the “Not-to-Exceed” limit, the Contractor shall notify the Engineer in writing, and in a timely manner, that the limit requires an increase.
The City will only reimburse eligible costs up to the “Not-to-Exceed” amount.
The Contractor shall notify the Inspector at the beginning of each day when Changed/Extra Work is being performed. The Contractor shall notify the Inspector of the Changed/Extra Work being performed and describe the personnel involved, whether by Contractor forces or by its subcontractors at any tier. Failure to notify the Inspector prior to the start of Changed/Extra Work serves as the Contractor’s waiver to claim for compensation on that day.

It is the responsibility of the Contractor to include any and all items of labor, equipment, or material for which it requests compensation for each day’s work completed.
3. Information required on the Labor form shall include name of personnel, personnel classification, and only the number of hours worked on Changed/Extra work for the day being reported. Since the overhead allowance already includes all necessary supervision, any hours for additional supervision or non-working foremen are ineligible for additional payment. The premium pay for a general foreman is eligible for payment only if the general foreman is a working foreman and a general foreman was required by a Union Labor Agreement or otherwise approved by the Inspector. The general foreman rate is eligible for payment only during the time that a general foreman was required for the Changed/Extra Work.
4. Information required on the Equipment/Material shall include Contractorowned equipment and/or tools, and rented equipment or tools for which compensation is requested. Information shall include the type of equipment, size of equipment, equipment identification number, appurtenances, and only the number of hours worked on the Changed/Extra work.
5. The only allowable materials are materials delivered to the job site and/or incorporated only into the Changed/Extra work. The allowable materials shall be listed on the T&M sheet for the day that they are delivered to the job site and/or incorporated into the Changed/Extra work.
6. Delivery ticket(s) and/or bill(s) of lading for rental equipment and/or tools delivered to the site and/or material incorporated into the work for the day being reported must be attached with the T&M sheet for that day. No payment will be allowed for materials and/or rented equipment unless receipt(s) or bill(s) of lading is attached. If the request for payment is not substantiated by original vendor/supplier invoices, acceptable copies of original invoices, or other documentation acceptable to the Inspector, the City may establish the cost of the item(s) at the lowest possible wholesale price or rental rate applicable while the work was being performed.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 667 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-6
7. Failure to submit the required “Daily Extra Work Report of Time and Material Work” by the close of the next working day shall waive all rights for that day unless otherwise approved by the Inspector. Work that cannot be substantiated by a “Daily Report”, approved and signed by the Inspector, is ineligible for payment.
8. The Contractor is responsible for preparing the “Daily Extra Work Report” for work by its Subcontractors and submitting the Forms to the Inspector on time.
9. The Contractor must have each “Daily Extra Work Report” verified by the Inspector. After the “Daily Extra Work Report” is approved by the Inspector, both the Contractor and Inspector sign the report. The original “Daily Extra Work Report” is retained by the Inspector with a copy provided to the Contractor.
10. When the “Daily Extra Work Report” is signed by the Inspector and the Contractor, it is binding on the Contractor and its Subcontractors.
11. When agreed to by the Inspector, the Contractor may submit a supplemental “Daily Extra Work Report” for labor, materials, or equipment for which the Contractor requests compensation but failed to list on the original daily report.
a. These supplemental forms shall be marked “SUPPLEMENTAL”. b. Unless otherwise approved by the Inspector, the supplemental forms may only be submitted for approval up to two (2) working days following the date when the work was performed.
No payment will be allowed for labor, materials, or equipment included on T&M sheets not signed by the Contractor and the Inspector. Payment will not be allowed for labor, materials, or equipment included on T&M sheets signed by anyone other than the Inspector or the Inspector’s immediate supervisor.
D. General
It is the intent of the City to settle all Change Orders full and final at the time the Change Order is issued. Therefore, the following paragraph shall be made a part of all Change Orders, whether included or not on the actual change order:
“The compensation (time and cost) set forth in a Change Order comprises the total compensation due the Contractor, all Subcontractors, and all Suppliers, for the Work or change defined in the Change Order, including impact on unchanged work. By signing the Change Order, the Contractor acknowledges and agrees on behalf of himself, all Subcontractors, and all Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 668 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-7
Suppliers, that the stipulated compensation includes payment for all work contained in the Change Order, plus all payment for the interruption of schedules, extended field overhead costs, delay, and all impact, ripple effect or cumulative impact on all other work under this Contract. The signing of the Change Order indicates that the Change Order constitutes full mutual accord and satisfaction for the change, and that the time and/or cost under the Change Order constitutes the total equitable adjustment owed the Contractor, all Subcontractors, and all Suppliers as a result of the change. The Contractor, on behalf of himself, all subcontractors, and all Suppliers, agrees to waive all rights, without exception or reservation of any kind whatsoever, to file any further claim related to this Change Order.
No further claim or request for equitable adjustment of any type for any reasonably foreseeable cause shall arise out of or as a result of this Change Order or the impact of this Change Order on the remainder of the Work under this Contract.”
Costs which shall not be paid in Change Orders under this Contract include, but are not limited to, interest costs of any type; claim preparation or filing costs; legal expenses; the costs of preparing or reviewing proposed Change Orders or Change Order proposals; lost revenue; lost profits; lost income or earnings; rescheduling costs; costs of idled equipment when such equipment is not at the site or has not yet been employed on the Work; lost earnings or interest on unpaid retainage; claims consulting costs; and the costs of corporate officer or staff visiting the site; any compensation due to the fluctuation of foreign currency conversion or exchange rates; loss of other business; changes in taxes or increased tax rates of any kind or any costs identified as unallowable under the provisions of the Federal Acquisition Regulations.
Extensions of time shall be based solely upon the effect of delays to the Work as a whole. Extensions of time shall not be granted for delays to the Work, unless the Contractor can clearly demonstrate, through analysis of the current updated schedule, that the delay to the Work as a whole arose or will arise from causes other than normal weather, beyond the control and without fault or negligence of the Contractor, or any Subcontractor, at any tier, and that such delays did or will, in fact, delay the progress of the Work as a whole. The Contractor shall not be entitled to a time extension unless it submits a Time Impact Analysis which is a calculation of the extent of the delay to the end date of the Work and which shows that the Work has been or will be extended beyond the current Contract completion date. A Time Impact Analysis is a scheduling procedure which utilizes the networking techniques (fragnets) and a written analysis of the facts associated with the alleged delay to demonstrate the effect of the alleged delay on the critical path of the schedule. A "fragnet" is defined as a sequence of new activities and/or activity revisions that are proposed to be added to the existing current updated schedule to demonstrate (mathematically and graphically) the influence of the alleged delay on the end date of the Work and shall be the sole method for incorporating delays and impacts into the schedule. The objective of a Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 669 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-8
Time Impact Analysis is to pinpoint, isolate, and quantify all time impact associated with a specific issue and determine its time relationship to past or current delays. Time extensions shall not be allowed for delays to parts of the Work that are not on the critical path of the currently approved monthly updated project schedule. Time extensions shall not be granted, nor delay damages of any kind whatsoever paid to the Contractor, until all available float, slack, or contingency time on the project is used and the end date of the Work is moved beyond the current, adjusted Contract completion date.
The cost summary, cost breakdowns and requests for cost reimbursement submitted by the Contractor (for delay, disruption, hindrance and interference associated with the changes, additions, deletions or extras) shall be itemized in a manner that, with mathematical certainty and without reliance upon probabilities or inferences, segregates the direct, actual reimbursable costs associated with each individual, change, addition, deletion, extra and (on an event-by-event basis) each individual delay or disruption event. Such cost summaries, breakdowns or requests shall not be based, in whole or in part, upon any methodology (such as “total cost” or “modified total cost” methodologies) that purports to calculate the Contractor’s additional costs of performance of the extra, change, addition or deletion (including without limitation the additional costs of delay, disruption or other impact) based on the difference between Contractor’s total actual Project or line item costs (with or without fee) and its original bid estimate for the Project or any original bid estimate line item. In connection with the foregoing, Contractor represents and warrants that it has the ability to generate and maintain complete and accurate cost accounting records that will reflect (i) the actual costs incurred or saved for each individual item of Extra Work, change, addition, deletion (including without limitation any costs of associated delay, disruption, interference, hindrance and the cumulative impact of each extra, change, addition, deletion on other parts of the Work); and, (ii) on an event-by-event basis, the effect of each delay or disruption that forms the basis of each request for extension of time, regardless of their scope, number, complexity, cumulative effect, or time of issuance or occurrence.
Except as provided in Section 6-6 of the General Conditions, Contractor shall have no right to recovery of any compensation, costs, expenses or damages resulting from delay, disruption, interference, or hindrance in the performance of the Work (including without limitation interruption of schedules, excess or extraordinary extended field and indirect overhead costs, loss of productivity and the impact, ripple or cumulative effect on other Work).
Contractor waives any claim or rights and remedies based on abandonment, quantum merit, rescission or other similar legal theory by reason of any of the following circumstances, which the Contractor acknowledges and agrees are within the reasonable contemplation of the parties: (i) changes, additions, deletions and extras to the Work after execution of the Contract and issued from time to time throughout the period of construction, regardless of their scope, Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 670 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-9
number, cumulative value, or complexity, to correct errors, omissions, conflicts, and ambiguities in the Contract Documents, or to implement discretionary changes to the scope of Work requested by the City; (ii) the issuance and performance of changes, additions, deletions and extras in a manner that is not in sequence with the as-built or as-planned progress of the Work; (iii) changes due to Differing Site Conditions; (iv) suspensions of the Work or parts thereof, or limitations on access to portions or all of the Work, for the convenience of City or in the interests of the Project; (v) delay or disruption to the Work due to failure of the City, Engineer or Inspector to timely perform any contractual obligation.
E. Markups – Overhead and Profit
1. In addition to the direct expenditures specified for labor, materials and equipment in Subsection B, a lump sum will be paid for all overhead and profit, including: All insurance costs other than specifically mentioned in this Section, all field and office supervisors and assistants, all onsite project administration, security costs, the cost of small tools and consumables, incidental job burdens, and all general home office expenses and no separate allowance will be made therefor. Assistants to field and office supervisors include all clerical, stenographic, and general office help. Incidental job burdens include, but is not limited to, office equipment and supplies, temporary toilets, telephone, utilities, safety equipment, warning devices, personal protective equipment, and conformance to OSHA requirements. Project administration includes, but are not limited to, review and coordination, estimating, engineering, scheduling, and expediting relative to Change Orders, and updating and furnishing Record Drawings to incorporate changes, schedule update, supervision not applied solely to the Work of the Change Order, home office salaries and expenses, and City of Redlands Business Tax. Such lump sum shall conform to the following schedule of percentages of the total amount of direct expenditures of the Contractor and subcontractors.
(a) Work by Contractor. The following percentages shall be added to the Contractor’s costs and shall constitute the markup for all overhead and profits:
1) Direct Labor 20%
2) Direct Materials 15%
3) Direct Equipment 15%
(b) Work by Subcontractor. When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a Subcontractor, the markup established in (a) shall be applied to the Subcontractor’s actual cost of such work. A markup of 10 percent on the first $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work and a markup of 5 percent on work added in excess of $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work may be added by the Contractor.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 671 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-10
2. Bonds and Insurance
An additional allowance of one percent (1%) of all direct costs (less markup) is allowed.
3. Add/ Deduct Changes
The overhead rates determined above shall be applied to all additive Change Orders, except those utilizing as-bid Unit Prices listed in the Bid Proposal.
Any change in the Work involving both extras and credits shall show a net total cost, including subcontracts. Allowances for overhead and profit to the net total cost, as specified herein above, shall be applied if the net total cost is an extra; overhead and profit allowances shall not be applied if the net total cost is a credit. The estimated cost of deductions shall be based on labor and material prices on the date the Contract was signed.
4. When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a Subcontractor, the markup established in subsection 1.1.E.1 shall be applied to the Subcontractor’s actual cost of such work. A markup of 10 percent on the first $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work and a markup of 5 percent on work added in excess of $5,000 of the subcontracted portion of the extra work may be added by the Contractor.
F. City Furnished Materials, Equipment and Services
The Engineer reserves the right to furnish materials, equipment and services deemed expedient for use on the Changed/Extra Work. The Contractor shall have no claim for profit or overhead on the cost of such materials, equipment and services.
G. Equipment Costs
The rates for rental or leased equipment shall not exceed the rates listed in the Caltrans Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates (Caltrans LS&ERR). For T&M Change Orders, the rates are established by the actual paid invoice(s) that comply with the requirements of Subsections G.1 and G.3. Owned equipment costs shall not exceed the rates established by Subsection G.2. The most recent published edition in effect at the commencement of actual equipment use shall be used.
The rates paid for any rented or leased equipment or tools shall include the cost of fuel, oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, necessary attachments, repairs and maintenance of any kind, depreciation, storage, insurance and all incidental costs associated with the operation of the equipment or tools.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 672 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-11
It is the responsibility of the Contractor to include any appurtenances added to equipment which would increase the basic rate for said equipment (i.e., hoe-ram, oversize bucket, and etcetera) as established in the acceptable rental rate guide.
All equipment and/ or tools shall be acceptable to the Inspector, in good working condition, suitable for the purpose for which it is to be used, and necessary to complete the Changed/Extra Work. Payment will be based on the manner in which the equipment was actually powered, operated and modified per the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations.
1. Rented or Leased Equipment
For equipment rented or leased (including lease with purchase option) in arm's length transactions from outside vendors, the Contractor shall be paid the actual invoiced, rented or leased rates provided that the invoiced lease or rental rates do not exceed the rates set forth in the Caltrans LS&ERR. Arm's length rental or lease transactions are those in which the firm involved in rental or lease of such equipment is not associated with, owned by, have common management, directorship, facilities, or stockholders with the firm renting the equipment. Submittal by a Contractor of a rental or leased invoice from the lessor will be prima facie proof of compliance with the above. However, such invoices are not conclusive proof; if questioned, the burden of proof remains with the Contractor. In no event shall the leased equipment rate billed to the City be at rates exceeding those prescribed in the following table:
Actual Usage (Change Order
& Contract Work Combined) Payment Category
Less than 8 hours Hourly Rate
8 or more hours but less than 7 days Daily Rate
7 or more days but less than 30 days Weekly Rate
30 calendar days or more Monthly Rate
a. When in Use:
Actual equipment use time documented by the Inspector shall be the basis that the equipment was utilized on the changed work and paid for under the Change Order. In addition to the lease or rental rate, equipment-operating costs shall not exceed the estimated hourly operating rate as set forth in the Caltrans LS&ERR. The hours of operation shall be based upon actual equipment usage on the changed work as recorded by the Inspector. For multiple shift work sequences, the allowable equipment rate shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the base rate, for second or third shifts. b. When Idle:
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 673 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-12
Idle equipment is equipment on site and necessary to perform the Work under the change but not in actual use due solely to the impact of the changed work. Equipment operating costs due to idle time, documented by the Inspector, shall be paid at the rate determined in “G” (1) above. Idle time shall include a reasonable time allowance to and from the project site.
Payment for equipment or tools shall be limited to hours actually worked on the Changed/Extra Work if the equipment or tool is already on site for Work under the original Contract. No “standby” time will be paid for equipment already on site for Work under the original Contract.
If equipment or tools are used intermittently and, when not in use, could be returned to the rental source at less expense than holding it at the work site, it shall be returned, unless the Contractor elects to keep it at the work site at no expense to the City.
2. Owned and Other Equipment
Equipment rates for owned equipment or equipment provided in other than arm's length transactions shall not exceed the total hourly costs as set forth in the Caltrans “Labor Surcharge and Equipment Rental Rates” effective at the time the work is performed. (The Caltrans equipment rental rates are available on the internet at
http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/construc/equipmnt.html.) If the equipment is not listed in Caltrans LS&ERR, then the Rental Rate Blue Book shall be used. When using the Blue Book, the hourly rate for any period less than 7 days shall be the weekly rate divided by 40, plus the Operating Cost.
Except as noted herein below, this equipment hourly rate plus the estimated operating cost per hour from the Blue Book will be paid for each hour the equipment actually performs the Extra Work. Daily records listing the equipment units and their respective operators, identification code, and actual usage on the Work under the Change Order, as certified at the end of each work day (or work shift if the Work is being performed in multiple work shift sequence) by the Inspector shall be the record upon which actual equipment use shall be based. For multiple shift work sequences, the Caltrans overtime factor shall be applied (When using the Blue Book one-half the Non-Operating Cost will be deducted for second and third shifts. The Non-Operating Costs are the Blue Book monthly or weekly/40 rates, as applicable.). It is agreed that this rate shall represent payment in full for all the Contractor’s direct costs.
a. When Idle:
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 674 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-13
Payment for equipment necessary to be on the site to complete the Work, but not in actual use due solely to the impact of the changed work, shall be paid per the table in Caltrans Standard
Specifications Section 9-1.03A(3b), provided that its presence and necessity on the site has been documented by the Inspector, and further provided that the equipment was idled solely by actions of the City. Idle equipment time will only be paid as a function of delays specifically directed or caused by the City's actions. In no event shall the idle time claimed in a day for a particular piece of equipment exceed the normal work schedule established for the project - usually eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week, and excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. For multiple shift work sequence, the allowable idle equipment rate shall not be allowed, for second or third shifts. It is agreed that this rate shall represent payment in full for all the Contractor’s direct costs.
3. Equipment Haulage and Set Up Costs
Documented and actual equipment haulage and set up costs shall be paid for, if applicable as set forth in Subsection B.3.
4. Other Equipment Cost Guides
In the event that a piece of equipment used on a Change Order is not listed in Caltrans or the Blue Book, costs may be derived from the Associated General Contractor’s of America Equipment Ownership Guide, the Associated Equipment Dealers Guide, or the Equipment Rate Guide published by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as adjusted appropriately for the type of work and use and the regional area of the Work under this Contract.
H. Records
At any time should the Contractor deviate substantially from the schedule, method and sequence of operation, equipment, cost or pricing data furnished by the Contractor and agreed to by the City in connection with the Change Order or should the City determine that any price negotiated in connection with the Change Order is defective due to such deviation or the fault of the Contractor, the City reserves the right to reduce the Change Order cost and reissue the Change Order at the amount in which the City determines to be the actual costs to complete the change.
Whenever any material or process is indicated or specified by patent or a proprietary name, or by name of a manufacturer in the Change Order, such direction shall not relieve the Contractor’s responsibility or obligation to perform Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 675 of 1055
CHANGE ORDERS 01254-14
work in accordance with the contract requirements. The Contractor shall be solely responsible for, and have control over construction means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures, coordination of all portions of the contract and Change Order work.
The Contractor shall on a weekly basis submit an approximate accounting of the amount expended on the Time and Materials work to date and an estimate of the Impact to the time of performance of work.
I. Partial Payments for Time and Materials Work.
Progress payments for Time and Materials work shall only be made if the anticipated cost of the changed work is in excess of $50,000 and/or the time to perform the changed work will exceed two (2) months duration. To receive payments for Time and Materials work, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer an invoice of the daily reports which were verified by the Inspector, with details and documents, verifying the Contractor’s and Subcontractor's actual costs incurred for the Time and Materials work as set forth in Subsections B through H. Costs shall be submitted within thirty (30) calendar days after the T&M work has been satisfactorily completed unless an extension of time for submittal is authorized in writing by the Inspector.

SCHEDULE OF VALUES 01298-1
SECTION 01298 SCHEDULE OF VALUES
1.1 GENERAL
A. The Schedule of Values shall be used as a basis for determining progress payments on a lump sum contract or any designated lump sum bid item. The Schedule of Values shall be a schedule of cost loaded construction activities equal, in total, to the lump sum bid and shall be in such form and sufficient detail to correctly represent a reasonable apportionment of the lump sum. Prior to submitting an invoice for payment, the CONTRACTOR shall have submitted a detailed Schedule of Values and obtained approval from the ENGINEER.
B. Each lump sum bid item on the Schedule of Work and Prices, as set forth in the Bid must be broken down separately. The breakdown of each lump sum bid item must cover the cost of construction required by the contract documents for that item. The sum of the values for the construction activities, within a bid item, must equal the total bid amount for that item. The breakdown shall include subcontract amounts which shall not deviate from the amounts submitted in the Bid Proposal. The CONTRACTOR shall provide certification from the Subcontractors certifying the subcontract amounts.
C. Each activity in the Schedule of Values shall delineate one construction activity.
For example, the placement of concrete between construction joints, the construction of an electrical duct bank or pipeline between points A & B. The costing for each activity should include all costs for the labor and materials or equipment required to complete the activity. For example, concrete construction activities should include all costs for the forming, placing of reinforcement, placing concrete and curing. The cost for pipeline construction activities should include materials, equipment and installation including pipeline supports or thrust blocks. The excavation and backfill for a pipeline or structure may be separate activities. The Contract Price breakdown shall include the itemized costs for the plant establishment and any maintenance services to be performed before the final project acceptance is made. No non-construction activity shall be cost loaded.
D. The CONTRACTOR shall use cost loaded construction activities from the Construction Schedule as a Schedule of Values. Each construction activity shall be encoded to its bid item and a sort provided for each bid item totaling the cost loaded amount. The total of the Cost Loaded amounts for each bid item shall equal the amount bid for that item. The total of the Schedule of Values shall equal the current Contract value at all times. At any time during the progress of the Work of the Contract the INSPECTOR reserves the right to review the cost loading of the Schedules of Values and direct necessary revisions. When requested by the INSPECTOR, the CONTRACTOR shall provide all information necessary to substantiate the cost loading.
Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 677 of 1055
SCHEDULE OF VALUES 01298-2
E. Attached are samples of the Schedule of Values. The City will provide project specific Schedule of Values for the CONTRACTOR to use throughout the project at the Preconstruction Meeting. The Schedule of Values must be used by the CONTRATRACTOR at the time of each progress payment.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE 01321-1
SECTION 01321 CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE
1. THE REQUIREMENT
A. It is expressly understood and agreed that the time of beginning, the rate of progress, and the time of completion of the Work are of the essence of this Contract.
B. The CONTRACTOR’S representative in charge of scheduling is required to attend all meetings pertaining to scheduling and progress of the Work.
C. The CONTRACTOR shall submit to the ENGINEER 3 hard copies and the electronic file of the CONTRACTOR'S Construction Schedule (the schedule) at the time of the preconstruction meeting. The schedule shall be either a Critical Path Method (CPM) Network or a detailed Bar Chart with the critical path clearly shown. If the CPM network option is used, then Primavera Project Management or Microsoft Project shall be the scheduling software. If a detail Bar Chart is used, Microsoft Excel shall be the software utilized. The schedule shall include the following:
1. Activity ID,
2. Activity Description,
3. Start date for each activity,
4. Finish date for each activity,
5. Original duration,
6. Predecessor,
7. Successor,
8. Percent Complete,
9. Remaining Days.
A minimum of seven (7) calendar days for review of each schedule. Schedule activities shall be of sufficient detail to assure adequate planning has been done for proper execution of the Work and such that, in the sole judgement of the ENGINEER, it provides an appropriate basis for monitoring progress. The schedule shall begin with the date of issuance of the Notice to Proceed and conclude with the date of Final Completion shown in the Contract. Submittal and approval of the schedule in accordance with the requirements of this Section is a condition precedent to the issuance of any payments under this Contract. Once the schedule is approved it will become the baseline schedule and must be shown and compared on all subsequent schedule submittals.
D. Float, slack time, or contingency within the schedule (i.e., the difference in time between the project's early completion date and the required Contract Completion date), and total float within the schedule, is not for the exclusive use of either the CITY or the CONTRACTOR, but is a jointly owned expiring resource available to and shared by both parties. Pursuant to this float sharing requirement, use of Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 683 of 1055
CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE 01321-2
float suppression techniques shall be cause for rejection of the schedule and any revisions or updates.
E. Time extensions shall not be granted nor delay damages paid until a delay occurs which is beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the CONTRACTOR and its Subcontractors or Suppliers, at any tier, and which extends actual performance of the Work beyond the current Contract completion date and the completion date projected by the current, approved, updated schedule. If the delay occurs along a path, which the current approved Construction Schedule update projects late completion prior to addition of any CITY caused delay, then the time extension allowed will be only for the additional delay demonstrated by the approved Time Impact Analysis. Time extensions shall be granted only if they are clearly demonstrated by the CONTRACTOR through the submittal, within seven (7) calendar days after the delay occurs, of a Time Impact Analysis which demonstrates the estimated impact on the end date of the Work; is based upon the updated Construction Schedule current as of the month the delay occurred; and demonstrates that the delay cannot be mitigated, offset, or eliminated through such actions as revising the intended sequence of Work or other means.
If a time extension if granted by the CITY, the updated schedule reflecting the change shall become the baseline and be reflected schedule and must be shown and compared on all subsequent schedule submittals.
Since float time within the Construction Schedule is jointly owned, it is acknowledged that CITY caused delays on the project may be offset by CITY caused time savings (e.g. critical path submittals returned in less time than allowed by the Contract or approval of substitution requests which result in a savings of time to the CONTRACTOR). In such an event, the CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to receive a time extension or delay damages until all CITY caused time savings are exceeded and the Contract completion date is also exceeded.
F. If the initial schedule submitted shows completion of Work more than thirty (30) calendar days in advance of the Contract completion date, the ENGINEER may, at no cost to the CITY, decrease the Contract duration by issuance of a Change Order which changes appropriate Milestone Date(s) and the Contract completion date to the completion date reflected on the schedule. Any approved schedule, revision, or update having an early completion date shall show the time between the early completion date and the Contract completion date as "project float".
G. Comments made by the ENGINEER on the schedule during review will not relieve the CONTRACTOR from compliance with all requirements of the Contract. The ENGINEER may request that the CONTRACTOR and all major Subcontractors (defined herein as being any Subcontractor, Sub-Subcontractor, or Supplier with five (5) percent or more of the value of the Contract) participate in Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 684 of 1055
CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE 01321-3
review of any schedule submission. All revisions shall be submitted within seven (7) calendar days after the ENGINEER’S review.
H. Two copies of an updated schedule shall be submitted to the ENGINEER for approval with the submittal of each CONTRACTOR'S monthly payment request or the monthly payment request will be withheld. For those activities started but not yet completed at the time of submittal, the updated schedule shall reflect the percentage complete, as agreed between the CONTRACTOR and the INSPECTOR, and an estimate of the remaining duration. The monthly update of the schedule shall include an updated bar chart with logic arrows or network diagram and include the same additional data as required by Section 1.C. If the CPM network option is used, the schedule shall be calculated using remaining durations and the progress override option. The monthly update shall also include a complete, hard copy list of all the changes made from the previously approved submittal. If the schedule is done using Primavera, use a Claim Digger report for the list of changes.
I. The submittal of an updated schedule which meets the requirements of this Section, accurately reflects the status of the Work (for all previously accepted activities), and incorporates all approved changes into the schedule, shall be a condition precedent to the processing of the monthly payment application. (Actual and/or forecast dates for status of additional submittal cycles shall be added without the prior approval of the Engineer.) Updated schedules shall also be submitted at such other times as the ENGINEER may direct. Upon approval of a Change Order or issuance of a notice to proceed with a change, the approved change shall be reflected in the next schedule update.
J. If completion of any part of the Work, delivery of equipment or materials, or submittal of CONTRACTOR submittals is behind schedule and will impact the end date of the Work, the CONTRACTOR shall submit a written recovery plan acceptable to the ENGINEER for completing the Work by the current Contract completion date, if requested by the ENGINEER.
K. As a condition precedent to the release of any retained funds, the CONTRACTOR shall, after substantial completion of the Work has been achieved, submit a certified, final schedule which accurately reflects the manner in which the project was constructed and includes actual start and completion dates for all activities on the schedule.

Transmittal of a submittal of various items using a single transmittal form will be permitted only when the items taken together constitute a manufacturer's "package" or are so functionally related that expediency indicates a review of the group or package as a whole. A multiple-page submittal shall be collated into sets, and each set shall be stapled or bound, as appropriate, prior to transmittal to the ENGINEER.
E. Shop Drawings shall show in detail the size, sections, and dimensions of all the member(s); the arrangement and construction of all connections and joints; all holes, straps, and other fittings required for attaching work and other pertinent details. When required, engineering computations shall be submitted. The CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for delivering reviewed copies of shop Drawings to all others whose work is dependent thereon. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain at the site of the Project, at all times, a complete file of approved Shop Drawings and manufacturers' data for this Project.
F. Except as may otherwise be provided herein, the ENGINEER will return prints of each submittal to the CONTRACTOR, with its comments noted thereon, within twenty (20) calendar days following their receipt by the ENGINEER. It is considered reasonable that the CONTRACTOR shall make a complete and acceptable submittal to the ENGINEER by the second submission of a submittal Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 691 of 1055

item. The CITY reserves the right to withhold moneys due the CONTRACTOR to cover additional costs of the ENGINEER'S review beyond the second submittal. Submittal will be returned to the CONTRACTOR with one of four (4) markings:
1. If a submittal is returned to the Contractor marked "NO EXCEPTIONS," formal revision and resubmission of said submittal will not be required.
2. If a submittal is returned to the Contractor marked "EXCEPTIONS NOTED," formal revision and resubmission of said submittal will not be required, unless specifically requested.
3. If a submittal is returned to the Contractor marked "RETURNED FOR CORRECTION," the Contractor shall revise said submittal and shall resubmit the originally required number of copies of said revised submittal to the Engineer.
4. If a submittal is returned to the Contractor marked "NOT ACCEPTABLE," the Contractor shall revise said submittal and shall resubmit the originally required number of copies of said revised submittal to the Engineer.
G. All Work for which Shop Drawings are required shall be performed in accordance with the reviewed and approved copies. Fabrication of an item shall not commence before the ENGINEER has reviewed the pertinent submittal and returned the copies to the CONTRACTOR marked either "NO EXCEPTIONS TAKEN," or "MAKE CORRECTIONS NOTED“. Revisions indicated on submittals shall be considered as changes necessary to meet the requirements of the Contract Documents and shall not be taken as the basis for claims for extra work.
H. All CONTRACTOR submittals shall be carefully reviewed by an authorized representative of the CONTRACTOR prior to submission to the ENGINEER.
Each submittal shall be dated, signed, and certified by the CONTRACTOR as being correct and in strict conformance with the Contract Documents. No consideration for review by the ENGINEER of any CONTRACTOR’S submittal will be made for any items which have not been so certified by the CONTRACTOR. All noncertified submittals will be returned to the CONTRACTOR without action taken by the ENGINEER, and any delays caused thereby shall be the total responsibility of the CONTRACTOR.
I. Should the Shop Drawings or manufacturers data (for submittals required by the Standard Specifications or the specifications) show variations from the Contract requirements, the CONTRACTOR shall make specific mention of such variations in the letter of transmittal, in order that, if acceptable, suitable action may be taken for proper adjustment of the Contract; otherwise the Redlands Regular Meeting of 12/16/25 692 of 1055
