Project # and Name: 3 - E-Bike Lending Library Strategy: Car Sharing and Mobility Enhancement Lead Entity: Urban Tilth (work will be done by a fiscally sponsored organization, Rich City Rides, operating with fiscal sponsorship by Urban Tilth)
Project Description: The E-Bike Lending Library (Lending Library) will be a new structure in Unity Park focused on supporting community members in integrating e-bikes into their lives, which supports the community's effort to improve Richmond's growing zero-carbon-based transportation infrastructure. This will include development of a new long-term E- bike share program, where community members can check out bikes, take free classes, and get help and support with every aspect of having an e-bike as a flexible, accessible, and useful mode of transportation. The Lending Library will create a VTM “Volunteer, Training, Maintenance” road to ownership program which will allow community members to receive an e-bike upon completion of the VTM program.

Operations & Maintenance Plan: Rich City Rides will provide additional details to SGC on how the E-Bike Lending Library’s facilities operations and maintenance will be funded during and after the grant period. This Operation and Maintenance Plan will be developed between Rich City Rides and the City of Richmond’s Parks and Recreation Division to be completed in the 11th month of the grant period. Rich City Rides will apply for applicable grants to support the continuation of the bike share programs.

Reimbursement Conditions: Grantee will not be reimbursed for Task 2 (construction & implementation) until all readiness deliverables within Task 1 are received, approved and notified through an updated readiness memo provided by the TCC Grant Manager.

Describe the full scope of work or service contemplated including installation if required; items should include brand, model and part number if applicable; (if additional space is needed, include them in a separate page) Urban Tilth, fiscal sponsor for Rich City Rides, will lead the E-Bike Lending Library (Lending Library), a new structure in Unity Park focused on supporting community members in integrating e-bikes into their lives, which supports the community's effort to improve Richmond's growing zero-carbon-based transportation infrastructure.

This will include development of a new long-term E-bike share program, where community members can check out bikes, take free classes, and get help and support with every aspect of having an e-bike as a flexible, accessible, and useful mode of transportation. The Lending Library will create a VTM "Volunteer, Training, Maintenance" road to ownership program which will allow community members to receive an e-bike upon completion of the VTM program.

Complete the following checklist
A specific contractor is the only source of the required item because (check all that apply):

The required items are proprietary to the Contractor, and contractor solely transacts (sells) direct to the customer. (There are no dealers or distributors for contractor).

The required items are proprietary to the Contractor, and contractor does not sell direct to the customer. Contractor solely distributes the item or service through only one dealer or distributor in the United States. (There are no dealers or distributors for contractor).

Note: If item or service is available from more than one source. the item or service may be treated as proprietary, but must be competitively solicited from multiple (two or more) sources.

A specific item is needed:

To be compatible or interchangeable with existing hardware As spare or replacement hardware I—I For the repair or modification of existing hardware 11 Federal or state grant names vendor as condition of funding. (Attach copy of grant that names vendor)
There is a substantial risk in contracting with any other contractor, (e.g., only one contractor has been successful to date in implementing a difficult manufacturing process or the services sought). In a brief explanation, provide supporting evidence of why other contractors are considered to be unable to overcome the substantial risk.

Continuation of prior Work - Additional item, service or work required, but not known to have been needed when the original order was placed with vendor, and it is not feasible or practicable to contract separately for the additional need. Provide brief explanation and supporting evidence. (if additional space is needed, include them In a separate page) 2 I Page

(Under $10,000.00) (Over $10,000.00) (Copy of Minutes may be substituted) Note: Richmond Municipal Code Section 2.52.326 Sole Source Procurement requires final approval by the City Manager and/or City Council. Sole Source must be approved by Finance Director, PRIOR to Council Approval.

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).

3. Features which exceed the minimum department requirements. 3 I Page

RE: Award Notification - Transformative Climate Communities (TCC) Program, Round 4, Implementation Grant Award, City of Richmond, "Richmond Rising: Healthy, Connected, and Climate Strong" Dear Mayor Butt,
The California Strategic Growth Council (SGC) is pleased to inform you that the Council approved a Transformative Climate Communities Implementation award of $35 million dollars to the City of Richmond for "Richmond Rising:

Healthy, Connected, and Climate Strong" at its October 27, 2022, meeting. Previously funded by California's Cap- and-Trade Program, Round 4 ofTCC was funded by a FY 2021-2022 budget appropriation from the General Fund.

This program funding empowers the communities most impacted by pollution to choose their own goals, strategies, and projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and local air pollution. The TCC Program reflects the SGC's commitment to support community-led transformation and achieve equitable, resilient communities and landscapes for all Californians. Congratulations on your successful application.

This letter provides a conditional commitment of grant funds. TCC staff will initiate the Post-Award Consultation (PAC) process soon by scheduling a meeting with the Awardee and sending a review package including review checklists for all projects and transformative plans. This process will involve addressing any outstanding issues identified by TCC staff, reviewers, and the interagency panel, as well as finalizing the grant agreement. Grantees and Partners will need to work closely and collaboratively with TCC Staff to address all issues prior to grant execution. All requested documentation and changes should be finalized within six (6) months after the Council makes awards. New to Round 4, we will provide a mini grant to support administrative, staff, and materials costs for Grantees and Partners as they complete the PAC process. Our partnering agency, the Department of Conservation, will lead the PAC process.

Following execution of the grant agreement, grant funds will be disbursed on a bi-monthly basis for eligible direct, indirect, and indicator tracking costs. All reimbursed costs must meet the requirements for reimbursable tasks outlined in the grant agreement. TCC has also been authorized for an Advance Pay Pilot program (AB 156) and will follow up on the terms for accessing advance pay once approved by Council. Please note that no funds will be reimbursed for costs and expenses incurred prior to grant agreement execution, with the exception of limited PAC costs for staff and materials in accordance with forthcoming guidance.

We look forward to our partnership in the coming years. If you have any questions, please contact Sophie Young, TCC Program Manager, at [email protected].

Sincerely,

The Richmond Rising proposal is the result of years of stakeholder collaboration, including a TCC planning grant, to address environmental justice concerns in the Iron Triangle, Santa Fe, and Coronado neighborhoods that adjoin the historical heavy industrial zones in Richmond. The proposal aims to empower the city's most marginalized communities through complete streets and affordable active transportation options; renewable energy resilient homes; water absorption and reuse; urban greening and cooling of neighborhoods; and enhanced food security for improved health and wellbeing.

The City, alongside five co-applicants, have collaborated over four years of planning and project work to develop the proposal's objective and vision. This proposal's Community Engagement Plan (CEP) draws upon direct ties to priority populations, as well as capacity through Richmond Rising Youth Fellows Program (annual paid fellowship for Black and Brown youth). Richmond Rising's Displacement Avoidance Plan (DAP) includes a robust set of City programs and policies informed by quantitative data which complement the City's existing work in developing, promoting, and passing policies and programs that address residential and business displacement. Although the proposal meets TCC Program Requirements, only .24% of the total budget (of maximum allowable 3%) was dedicated to the DAP. This amount was the result of a budgeting error caused by unclear language in the TCC Guidelines. The proposal also includes workforce development through solar installation basic training, as well as the RichmondWORKS city program which provides career skills training and supportive services.
