15. Indemnification.
(a) If this Contract is a contract for design professional services subject to California Civil Code Section 2782.8(a) and Contractor is a design professional, as defined in California Civil Code Section 2782.8(b)(2), Contractor shall hold harmless, defend and indemnify the City, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, and expenses including attorneys’ fees arising out of, or pertaining to, or relating to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, except where caused by the active negligence, sole negligence, or willful misconduct of the City. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall immediately defend and indemnify the City and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all liabilities, regardless of nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, or its employees, agents, or subcontractors.

Liabilities subject to the duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, and judgments; associated investigation and administrative expenses; defense costs, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees; court costs; and costs of alternative dispute resolution. Contractor’s obligation to

3-21-23, CC Mtg.

General Conditions/EJ/TE 01-19-11 7 of 13
indemnify applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of an indemnified party.
(b) If this Contract is not a contract for design professional services subject to California Civil Code Section 2782.8(a) or Contractor is not a design professional as defined in California Civil Code Section 2782.8(b)(2), Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers from any and all claims, suits, or actions of every name, kind and description, brought forth on account of injuries to or death of any person or damage to property arising from or connected with the willful misconduct, negligent acts, errors or omissions, ultra-hazardous activities, activities giving rise to strict liability, or defects in design by Contractor or any person directly or indirectly employed by, or acting as, the agent for Contractor in the performance of this Contract, including the concurrent or successive passive negligence of the City, its officers, agents, employees or volunteers.
(c) It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code.

An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this Section 15. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole, or in part, by the negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party. (d) The review, acceptance or approval of the Contractor’s work or work product by any indemnified party shall not affect, relieve or reduce the Contractor’s indemnification or defense obligations. This Section 15 survives completion of the services or the termination of this Contract.

The provisions of this Section 15 are not limited by, and do not affect, the provisions of this Contract relating to insurance.
(e) Acceptance of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Contract does not relieve Contractor from liability under this Section

Original, signed certificates and original, separate policy endorsements, naming the City as an additional insured for general liability, as well as a waiver of subrogation for Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall be received and approved by the City before any work may begin. However, failure to do so shall not operate as a waiver of these insurance requirements.

City reserves the right to modify or require additional coverages for specific risk exposures depending on scope of CONTRACTORS work.

CONTRACTOR agrees to defend and indemnify the City of Richmond for any damage resulting to it from failure of either CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor to take out or maintain the required insurance policies. The fact that insurance is obtained by CONTRACTOR, and/or CONTRACTOR’s subcontractors, will not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONTRACTOR, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this contract. Damages recoverable by CITY from CONTRACTOR or any third party will not be limited by the amount of the required insurance coverage.

Verification of Coverage
All original certificates and endorsements shall be received and approved by the City before work may begin. The City of Richmond reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies including endorsements affecting the coverage at any time.

Sole Source Rationale: PLEASE ANSWER all the following questions: Explain why the recommended company is the only company that can meet the requirement. Address the following: Are there any other companies who can do this job? What condition (e.g. technological superiority, or performance risks, etc.) exists so that the recommended company has a significant advantage over any other company who can do this job? It is important to sufficiently address the key reason for awarding an order/contract without soliciting competitive bids. The rational must be clear and convincing, avoiding generalities and unsupported conclusions.

The department is currently using Mark43s Racial Identification Profiling Act (RIPA) software but the software is substandard and require staff to manually submit the information to DOJ. Staff researched Peregrine and their solution cost about $25,000 (and not able to correct our existing RIPA data) but not reimbursable under SB90 because Peregrine does not meet the reporting requirements and requires manual submission of the data that is subject to data validation errors.

Veritone is the only vendor that is able to correct the department's existing RIPA data, submit RIPA data directly to DOJ on the departments behalf and provides the necessary audit and tracking reports to be used for SB 90 full reimbursement for time spent meeting this state mandate.

PROCEDURE
Sole Source purchase/service are exceptions to the normal bidding process and require a detailed justification. In processing Sole Source requests for supplies, services and/or equipment, the Purchasing Division adheres to and is governed by the principles set forth in City of Richmond Municipal Code Section 2.52.326 Sole Source Procurement.

If you are requesting a particular vendor, brand or product, you must make this fact clear on your Sole Source form.

Your request will then be restrictive and non-competitive, and will fall into a sole source category'. If the sole source justification is approved, the requisition can be expedited without the normal bidding requirements.

Such a request should not be made unless you are confident that your request is reasonable and appropriately justified to meet the City’s requirements and withstand any possible audit. The City’s requirements and the format for submitting such requests are contained herein. Sole Source form must be signed by authorized department representative(s). The certification will remain on file for audit purposes.

The following factors DO NOT apply to sole source requests and should not be included in your sole source justification. They will not be considered and only tend to confuse the evaluation process.

1. Personal preference for product or vendor.

2. Cost, vendor performance, and local service (these are generally considered award factors in competitive bidding).

The Police Department has been working diligently to fill vacant positions; however, the influx of applicants has reduced the funds available on the current contract with Get Polygraphed, Inc. and seeks to add funds and time
to continue onboarding new hires.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: APPROVE a second amendment to the contract with Get Polygraphed, Inc. increasing the compensation in an
amount not to exceed $30,000, for a total compensation
amount not to exceed $60,000, and extending the term to November 1, 2024, for preemployment polygraph
examination services – Police Department (Chief Bisa
French 510-621-1802).

AGENDA
REPORT

3-21-23, CC Mtg.

March 21, 2023
DISCUSSION:

Pre-employment polygraph examinations are required by the State of California Commission on Police Officer Standards and Training (POST) for all sworn police personnel, communications dispatchers, as well as police cadets, police rangers, records specialists, and jailers. During the hiring process, every applicant to include civilian administration positions are required to undergo a preemployment polygraph examination. The ability to hire and quickly on-board a potential candidate is of great importance since delays can lead to candidates accepting positions elsewhere, forcing the Police Department to reinitiate its recruitment efforts. The inability to quickly fill vacancies exacerbates staffing shortages and workflow in a department faced with rising vacancies and a growing list of eligible retirements in the upcoming year(s).

The Police Department currently contracts with two different licensed polygraph examination firms, Shannon Layer Polygraph and Get Polygraphed, Inc. The agreement with Get Polygraphed, Inc was first amended in April 2022 by increasing the original agreement by $15,000. The Police Department, however, is quickly approaching the agreement maximum due to the effort to hire thirty (30) officers within the next year.

The Police Department is requesting a contract amendment to allow for additional costs in an amount not to exceed $30,000 for a new total contract compensation amount not to exceed $60,000. The amendment will allow Get Polygraphed, Inc. to continue providing pre-employment polygraph examination services extending through November 2024.

The polygraph examiner with Get Polygraphed, Inc. has a proven track record of providing preemployment polygraph services in a timely and efficient manner that expedites the hiring process. The examiners flexibility has allowed candidates to test during off-hours and on weekends.

March 21, 2023
DISCUSSION:

This piece of equipment is a new addition to the City of Richmond’s fleet. It will be used to clean and maintain sidewalks at various sites, including but not limited to Civic Center Plaza and the Transit Village-Metro Walk.

The finance department has approved this purchase as in compliance with the Richmond Municipal Code, Section 2.52.320 Piggyback procurement. This allows for a “piggyback” purchase using another agency’s purchase contract if it is in the best interest of the City of Richmond.

Based on the Sourcewell Contract 093021-EXP pricing, Public Works staff is recommending the purchase of the Madvac LS175 Litter Vacuum Sweeper in the amount of $166,562.09 from Owen Equipment as the authorized dealership for Madvac.

There are no vendors in the City of Richmond that can provide a Madvac LS175 Litter Vacuum Sweeper. A contingency of $16,437.91 has been added to the quoted price, for an aggregate purchase of $183,000, to allow for any change orders and/or price changes at the time of delivery.

STATEMENT OF THE
ISSUE:

The Department of Public Works is requesting City
Council approval for the purchase of three replacement
mowers to be used by the Parks division.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: APPROVE the purchase of two ZMaster 7500 mowers and one GM5900 mower in an aggregate amount not to
exceed $217,000 including a contingency of $19,497.13
– Public Works (Daniel Chavarria 510-620-5478/ Dee
Karnes 510-231-3044).

DISCUSSION:

The Fleet Maintenance division must replace two 2008 model year mowers and one 2014 model year Groundmaster mower that have each met and exceeded their useful lifecycle of seven years. The 2014 model year Groundmaster mower has been out of service for six months due to the required replacement parts not being available.

The new equipment will meet updated air emission standards and will be used by the Parks division. The decision to replace a vehicle based on lifecycle includes the age, AGENDA

mileage, and repair costs over the life of the vehicle. The vehicle is then rated on a point system that is generated through an equipment replacement report. The highest number for each of these three factors is five for a total of 15 points. Once a vehicle gets to ten or higher, it should be added to the replacement list.

The Finance department has approved this purchase in compliance with the Richmond Municipal Code, Section 2.52.320 Piggyback procurement. This allows for a “piggyback” purchase using another agency’s purchase contract if it is in the best interest of the City of Richmond.

Based on the Sourcewell Contract 031121-TTC pricing, Public Works staff is recommending the purchase of three mowers from Turf Star Western in the amount of $197,502.87. A contingency of $19,497.13 has been added to the quoted price, for an aggregate purchase of $217,000, to allow for any change orders and/or price changes at the time of delivery.

Upon Contract execution, Vendor will make available to Sourcewell a means to validate or authenticate Vendor’s authorized dealers, distributors, and/or resellers relative to the Equipment, Products, and Services related to this Contract. This list may be updated from time-to-time and is incorporated into this Contract by reference. It is the Vendor’s responsibility to ensure Sourcewell receives the most current version of this list.

3. PRICING
All Equipment, Products, or Services under this Contract will be priced as stated in Vendor’s Proposal.

When providing pricing quotes to Participating Entities, all pricing quoted must reflect a Participating Entity’s total cost of acquisition. This means that the quoted cost is for delivered Equipment, Products, and Services that are operational for their intended purpose, and includes all costs to the Participating Entity’s requested delivery location.

Regardless of the payment method chosen by the Participating Entity, the total cost associated with any purchase option of the Equipment, Products, or Services must always be disclosed in the pricing quote to the applicable Participating Entity at the time of purchase.

A. SHIPPING AND SHIPPING COSTS. All delivered Equipment and Products must be properly packaged. Damaged Equipment and Products may be rejected. If the damage is not readily apparent at the time of delivery, Vendor must permit the Equipment and Products to be

returned within a reasonable time at no cost to Sourcewell or its Participating Entities.

Participating Entities reserve the right to inspect the Equipment and Products at a reasonable time after delivery where circumstances or conditions prevent effective inspection of the Equipment and Products at the time of delivery.

Vendor must arrange for and pay for the return shipment on Equipment and Products that arrive in a defective or inoperable condition.

Sourcewell may declare the Vendor in breach of this Contract if the Vendor intentionally delivers substandard or inferior Equipment or Products. In the event of the delivery of nonconforming Equipment and Products, the Participating Entity will notify the Vendor as soon as possible and the Vendor will replace nonconforming Equipment and Products with conforming Equipment and Products that are acceptable to the Participating Entity.

B. SALES TAX. Each Participating Entity is responsible for supplying the Vendor with valid taxexemption certification(s). When ordering, a Participating Entity must indicate if it is a taxexempt entity.

C. HOT LIST PRICING. At any time during this Contract, Vendor may offer a specific selection of Equipment, Products, or Services at discounts greater than those listed in the Contract.

When Vendor determines it will offer Hot List Pricing, it must be submitted electronically to Sourcewell in a line-item format. Equipment, Products, or Services may be added or removed from the Hot List at any time through a Sourcewell Price and Product Change Form as defined in Article 4 below.

Hot List program and pricing may also be used to discount and liquidate close-out and discontinued Equipment and Products as long as those close-out and discontinued items are clearly identified as such. Current ordering process and administrative fees apply. Hot List Pricing must be published and made available to all Participating Entities.

4. PRODUCT AND PRICING CHANGE REQUESTS
Vendor may request Equipment, Product, or Service changes, additions, or deletions at any time. All requests must be made in writing by submitting a signed Sourcewell Price and Product Change Request Form to the assigned Sourcewell Contract Administrator. This form is available from the assigned Sourcewell Contract Administrator. At a minimum, the request must:
x Identify the applicable Sourcewell contract number;
x Clearly specify the requested change;
x Provide sufficient detail to justify the requested change; x Individually list all Equipment, Products, or Services affected by the requested change, along with the requested change (e.g., addition, deletion, price change); and
