RE: BID ADVISORY
Bidder: Central Valley Engineering & Asphalt Inc.
Awarding Agency: City of Rocklin
Project: Park Drive Rehabilitation Project
FFC Case No.: 1617SAC
Dear Mr. Young:
The Foundation for Fair Contracting (FFC) is a nonprofit organization which has been serving the public interest since 1985. The objective of the FFC is to monitor compliance with prevailing wage laws pertaining to the construction industry, including informing and educating industry stakeholders. Unbalanced bids raise questions in regard to performance and compliance with the rules and regulations for the payment of prevailing wages, and the safety and well-being of the workforce. It further opens the question of excessive future change orders, the fairness to and rights of other bidders in the bidding process, and the intent of the bidding process in general.
In deference to all bidders and in order for the public interest to best be served, please enter this formal bid advisory against the above-noted contractors as a matter of public record. We respectfully request that Central Valley Engineering & Asphalt Inc. (Central Valley) bid be rejected for the following reasons:
x ONGOING VIOLATIONS OF PREVAILING WAGE LAWS RESULTING IN WAGE THEFT
Central Valley has numerous infractions/violations which have resulted in willful circumvention of the Laws and Regulations Governing the Payment of Prevailing Wages, including, but not limited to, violations resulting in wage theft and non- compliance with apprenticeship laws. They have engaged in this pattern of unlawful activity on various public works prevailing wage projects. Civil Wage and Penalty Assessments have been issued to them by the State of California, Division of Labor Standards Enforcement (DLSE), Labor Commissioner’s office. We have provided supporting documentation for your review.
Furthermore, Central Valley is currently under investigation by our offices in connection with issues provided below.
Misclassifications resulting in underpayments.
Failure to comply with overtime requirements.
Failure to comply with apprenticeship requirements.
746

Failing to report all workers on certified payrolls.
x FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AND FORMAL
APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMS
Central Valley has not made a good faith effort to participate and invest in Local Workforce Development, nor have they participated in local hiring of workers in the community through formal and recognized pre-apprenticeship programs and formal apprenticeship programs for specific apprenticeable crafts. They have failed to request, employ, train, and pay the proper prevailing wages to apprentices.
x OSHA VIOLATIONS RESULTING IN FINES ISSUED AND UPHELD
Central Valley has safety infractions that have resulted in investigations and fines issued by OSHA. We have attached supporting documentation for your review.
x LITIGATION AND PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACT (PAGA) LAWSUITS Central Valley has history of PAGA related lawsuits filed with the State of California, brought forth from workers who have been victims of wage theft. Further, Central Valley has a history of private litigation resulting from unsafe work ethics. Private litigation and PAGA supporting documentation is attached for your review.
Please contact our office with questions, comments, or clarifications.
Sincerely,
Jesse Jimenez

City Council
Staff Report
Subject:
Purchase of Flock Group Inc. Automated License Plate Reader Cameras
Date:
December 12, 2023
Submitted By:
Neil Costa, Lieutenant
Rustin Banks, Chief
Department:
Police
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Flock Group Inc.
Background:
On September 13, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-181 approving a two- year agreement with Flock Group, Inc. to install and operate 32 automated license plate readers (ALPR) cameras throughout the City of Rocklin. At this time the Rocklin Police Department desires to add an additional six ALPR cameras to cover all of the ingress and egress locations in the City of Rocklin, and to extend the contract to a new five-year master service agreement that covers all 38 ALPR cameras.
ALPR systems include cameras that can be placed in fixed locations throughout the City. The cameras scan the license plates of passing vehicles and automatically check the information against regional and national databases to determine if vehicles are stolen, have been used in a felony crime, identify as stolen plates, missing persons, people at risk, or for any other reasons that a license plate has been reported by law enforcement. The cameras also retain images of license plates, including the time, date, and location of where the vehicle passed through the cameras active range. If a crime, missing person, hit and run collision, or other significant incident is reported later, Police Department staff can research the database for clues about possible related vehicles. The system also alerts law enforcement, in real time, if and when, these vehicles pass through an area. With the use of multiple cameras, law enforcement is able to track the movement of these vehicles throughout the city assisting patrol units in locating them.
ALPR technology has been deployed in Rocklin since 2019 and throughout the nation for even longer. Local municipalities such as Roseville, Lincoln, Auburn, and the Counties of Placer Item Number 3O.
748
and Sacramento are also actively utilizing this technology successfully. ALPR systems are used to enhance the enforcement and investigative capabilities, expand law enforcement’s ability to analyze relevant data, and expediate the criminal investigative process of comparing vehicle license plates with lists of stolen, wanted, and other vehicles of interest. In the past ten months, Rocklin's existing ALPR cameras have led to the recovery of multiple stolen vehicles, helped in locating an at-risk missing person, were imperative in apprehending suspects responsible for two Rocklin bank robberies, assist with Organized Retail Crime efforts on a daily basis and much more. With this added technology, area law enforcement agencies are able to communicate with each other to coordinate a response to search for and locate these vehicles.
The Rocklin Police Department adopted policy 424 (Lexipol, LLC.) “Automated License Plate Readers” in July 2010, and revised it in October 2011 and April 2019. Policy 424 outlines the administration, collection and use of ALPR data which requires that restricted access to the system be for legitimate law enforcement purpose only. A copy of the policy is included as Attachment 3.
Prior to implementing an ALPR program, California Civil Code section 1798.90.55 requires the City to provide an opportunity for public comment at regularly scheduled City Council meeting.
When the Rocklin Police Department originally implemented its program in 2019, an opportunity was given for public comment at a City Council meeting. There were no concerns raised by comments during this meeting. The Rocklin Police Department will continue to implement community outreach on the use of ALPR cameras by spreading awareness via several social media outlets and by holding neighborhood meetings, if necessary.
Fiscal Impact:
The total cost of year one of the agreement is $109,900, with the cost reducing to $98,500 for years two through five. Fifty percent of the first year’s contract costs of $49,250, plus $11,400 in installation costs, for a total of $60,650, is included in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating Budget. The additional first-year expense of $15,000 and remaining fifty percent balance of the first year's contract costs will be provided through anticipated operational savings within the Department's operating budget, or through the use of Asset Forfeiture funding.

WHEREAS, the Rocklin Police Department intends to expand this system to cover all ingress and egress roads to the city; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Rocklin Municipal Code 3.04.090 (E), the City Council finds that it is in the public interest to approve this contract for longer than three years because the purchase is for specialized technological equipment and services and the addition of six cameras to the existing system is the most efficient method of addressing the City’s needs for such equipment and services; and
WHEREAS, the City Council authorizes the City Manager to enter into the five-year lease agreement with Flock Group, Inc.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City of Rocklin does resolve as follows:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Rocklin has reviewed and approves the terms of the Flock Group, Inc. Agreement to lease 38 Automated License Plate Reader Cameras; and
750
Section 2. The City Council of the City of Rocklin hereby authorizes the City Manager to execute an Agreement for Automated License Plate Reader Cameras in the amount not to exceed $109,900 for the first year of service and $98,500 annually for the duration of the contract and any amendments thereto.

Flock shall provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Customer of the payment delinquency before exercising any suspension right.

withholding is required by law, Customer shall notify Flock and shall pay Flock any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that Flock receives, after any deduction and withholding, equals the amount Flock would have received if no deduction or withholding had been required.

The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance for the capture, storage and use of digital data obtained through the use of Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) technology. 424.2 POLICY
The policy of the Rocklin Police Department is to utilize ALPR technology to capture and store digital license plate data and images while recognizing the established privacy rights of the public.
All data and images gathered by the ALPR are for the official use of this department. Because such data may contain confidential information, it is not open to public review. 424.3 ADMINISTRATION OF ALPR DATA
The ALPR technology, also known as License Plate Recognition (LPR), allows for the automated detection of license plates. It is used by the Rocklin Police Department to convert data associated with vehicle license plates for official law enforcement purposes, including identifying stolen or wanted vehicles, stolen license plates and missing persons. It may also be used to gather information related to active warrants, homeland security, electronic surveillance, suspect interdiction and stolen property recovery.
All installation and maintenance of ALPR equipment, as well as ALPR data retention and access, shall be managed by the Investigations Unit supervisor. The Investigations supervisor will assign members under his/her supervision to administer the day-to-day operation of the ALPR equipment and data.
It is the responsibility of the Support Services Division Commander or the Chief's designee to ensure that an audit is conducted of the ALPR detection browsing inquires at least once during each calendar year. The Department will audit a sampling of the ALPR system utilization from the prior 12-month period to verify the proper use in accordance with the below-authorized uses.
The audit shall randomly select at least 10 detection browsing inquires conducted by department employees during the preceding six-month period and determine if each inquiry meets the requirements to establish in policy section 424.6.
The audit shall be documented in the form of an internal department memorandum to the Chief of Police. The memorandum shall include any data errors found so that such errors found can be corrected. After review by the Chief of Police, the memorandum and any associated documentation shall be filed and retained by the Support Services Division Commander. 424.3.1 ALPR ADMINISTRATOR
The Administration Division Commander shall be responsible for developing guidelines and procedures to comply with the requirements of Civil Code § 1798.90.5 et seq. This includes, but is not limited to (Civil Code § 1798.90.51; Civil Code § 1798.90.53):

Subject:
Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement with R3 Consulting, Inc.
Date:
December 12, 2023
Submitted By:
Justin Nartker, Director of Public Services
Department:
Public Services
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving Amendment No. 3 to the Contract for Services with R3 Consulting, Inc. and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Amendment No. 3.
Background:
The City currently has a Franchise Agreement with Auburn Placer Disposal Service (ADPS) aka Auburn Recology to provide solid waste collection services which is scheduled to terminate in March of 2024. ADPS has requested a 10 year extension along with various changes such as, new programs to comply with Senate Bill (SB) 1383. In preparation for contract negotiations the City entered into an agreement with R3 Consulting, Inc. to evaluate the City’s solid waste collection system and provide recommendations and negotiation support. The original contract was executed on May 20, 2021, in an amount not to exceed $49,500. Two additional amendments have been issued for time only, extending the agreement until November 20, 2025. However, since the initial scope of services, staff has determined that it would be in the best interest of the City to have R3 Consulting, Inc. perform additional services in the form of a scaled down rate review to ensure the base costs continue to be reasonable prior to the addition of any new programs.
The cost to perform the additional work is $15,000, bringing the total contract amount to $64,500. Staff recommends the current agreement amount of $49,500 be increased by $15,000 for a total amount not to exceed $64,500.
Fiscal Impact:
The additional needed for the contract amendment will be provided through SB1383 grant funds.

Sunset Whitney Recreation Area Building Demolition Project Date:
December 12, 2023
Submitted By:
Jeff Scanlon, Administrative Analyst
Department:
Parks and Recreation
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving an Increase of the Total Authorized Contract Amount with Double B Demolition, Inc., for the Sunset Whitney Recreation Area Building Demolition Project.
Background:
On October 10, 2023, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-160 awarding a contract to Double B Demolition, Inc. for the Sunset Whitney Recreation Area Building Demolition Project. The project consists of the demolition and removal of two existing clubhouse buildings, landscaping, hardscaping, and concrete slabs, as well as asbestos abatement. The current authorized project amount is $345,600, which includes the original contract amount of $288,000, and a contingency amount of twenty percent ($57,600), as approved by the City Council.
During the initial asbestos abatement, the contractor and staff identified an error on the estimate of square feet for asbestos removal provided in the Bid Documents. Due to this miscalculation, the total area has increased from approximately 9,000 square feet to 14,912 square feet, resulting in the removal of an additional 5,912 square feet of asbestos-containing material. The cost of the additional asbestos abatement is $39,100.
To date, one change order has been issued to complete the demolition, removal, and disposal of two additional maintenance areas that were not included in the original project scope for $29,900, leaving $27,700 in contingency funds.
Staff recommends the City Council approve an increase of the total authorized contract amount with Double B Demolition, Inc., to incorporate the additional asbestos abatement, in the amount of $39,100, bringing the total to $384,700. Contingency funds of $27,700 would remain available for potential unforeseen conditions.
Item Number 3Q.
793
Fiscal Impact:
The not-to-exceed contract amount is $384,700, an increase of $39,100. Sufficient funds are available in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating Budget for this project.

(Resolution No. 2023 -160), in the amount of $288,000, for asbestos abatement, as well as the demolition and removal of two existing clubhouse buildings, landscaping, hardscaping, and concrete slabs at Sunset Whitney Recreation Area; and WHEREAS, the Rocklin Municipal Code, section 3.04.050 authorizes a contingency of fifteen percent of the contract amount for public works projects; however, due to the potential for unforeseen conditions once the project begins, staff recommended an additional five percent for a total of twenty percent ($57,600), bringing the total authorized contract amount to $345,600; and
WHEREAS, due to additional asbestos abatement areas identified outside of the original project scope, and the potential need for future contingency funds for the Sunset Whitney Recreation Area Building Demolition Project, it will be necessary to increase the total authorized contract amount; and
WHEREAS, staff recommends increasing the contract amount with Double B Demolition, Inc., for the Sunset Whitney Recreation Area Building Demolition Project by $39,100, increasing the total authorized contract amount to $384,700.

Astound Broadband Powered by WAVE Agreement
Date:
December 12, 2023
Submitted By:
Justin Nartker, Director of Public Services
Department:
Public Services
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Adopting and Authorizing the Agreement with Astound Broadband Powered by WAVE, for Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Communication and Networking Services and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement.
Background:
On May 14, 2019, the City Council approved the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Masterplan (Resolution No. 2019-106), which identified a phased backbone traffic control infrastructure and a central traffic control system. The ITS Masterplan builds upon the General Plan and Traffic Circulation Element by setting the vision, goals and objectives for traffic flow from an operational perspective.
Subsequently, staff reviewed the cost estimates and implementation priorities for the communication trunk lines that are needed along the City’s major corridors for the initial phases. The ITS Masterplan took into consideration the various technologies available (e.g., line of sight wireless, fiber, copper, cellular, etc.) and concluded that utilizing the Astound Broadband Powered by WAVE (Astound) fiber system was more cost advantageous than the implementation of a City-owned system. As was determined when this arrangement was originally entered into, the cost recovery for a City-owned backbone communication network vs. the proposed Astound network, is over 26 years, and does not account for legacy costs associated with additional staffing that would be needed to monitor a City-owned and maintained system.
As a result, on June 11, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2019-146, which authorized an infrastructure and communication services with Astound for ITS along Sunset Boulevard, Pacific Street, Rocklin Road, and Sierra College Boulevard. The current agreement expires in 2024.
The Astound fiber system has proven to be reliable for the City, and expandable to accommodate the changing traffic signal data needs and provide flexibility for the Police Item Number 3R.
797
Department’s Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) program. To accommodate the growing traffic signal ITS network and the ALPR program, staff entered into negotiations with Astound with the intent of lowering monthly service costs in order to create opportunities for infrastructure expansion. Staff also had a desire to lock in rates in order to create a more sustainable and predictable solution for growth and expanded service.
Through these negotiations, Astound Broadband Powered by WAVE was able to guarantee locked pricing and the ability to expand the system to accommodate the City’s growing needs by amortizing the project over a ten (10) year period. This will lower the rate from $384 to $288 per intersection/circuit for the duration of the contract with no additional installation costs per intersection. Additionally, new circuits will be added as the city continues to increase this service at a rate of $288 per circuit with no installation costs. Throughout the term of this contract.
Pursuant to the Rocklin Municipal Code 3.04.070(i) the City Council may approve a contract duration longer than three years for good cause. Given the satisfactory negotiations, staff recommends a ten (10) year agreement with Astound Broadband Powered by WAVE to secure a sustainable ITS system for the next decade.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no additional fiscal impact as the costs for this service is included in the individual department’s budget as needed.

7. DEFINITIONS
For purposes of this SLA the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below.
“Availability” means the ability of Customer to exchange Ethernet packets with the W AVE Network via Customer’s router port. Availability is measured in minutes of uptime over the calendar month during which the Services are Available:
822
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
Exhibit A: Service Level Agreement for High Availability Enterprise Services pg. 3 Wave Business Solutions, LLC Updated: 09/07/2016
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
% Availability = (Total Minutes in Month – Total Minutes of Unavailability in Month) (per calendar month) Total Minutes in Month
For Ethernet Transport Services and Phone Over Fiber Services, Availability is calculated at the individual circuit level, between WAVE’s Backbone Network and the Customer’s router port. For Dedicated Internet Access Services, Availability is calculated from the Customer’s router port through the WAVE Network to the handoff point for the Inter net.
Dedicated Internet Access Service Availability does not include the availability of the Internet itself or any particular Internet resource. Periods of Excused Outage are not included in Availability metrics.
“Chronic Outage ” means a series of thre e (3) or more Service Outages affecting the same Service on the same circuit during a given calendar month, each of which has an actual time to restore “TTR” in excess of WAVE’s targeted MTTR.
“Emergency Maintenance” means WAVE’s efforts to correct cond itions on the WAVE Network that are likely to cause a material disruption to or outage in services provided by WAVE and which require immediate action. Emergency Maintenance may degrade the quality of the Services provided to Customer, including possible outages. Any such outages are Excused Outages that will not entitle Customer to credits under this SLA. WAVE may undertake Emergency Maintenance at any time WAVE deems necessary and will provide Customer with notice of such Emergency Maintenance as soon as commercially practicable under the circumstances.
“Excused Outage” means any disruption to or unavailability of Services caused by or due to (i) Scheduled Maintenance, (ii) Emergency Maintenance, or (iii) circumstances beyond WAVE’s reasonable control, such as, by way of example only, Force Majeure, acts or omissions of Customer or Customer’s agents, licensees or end users, electrical outages not caused by WAVE, or any failure, unavailability, interruption or delay of third -party telecommunications netw ork components the use of which are reasonably necessary for WAVE’s delivery of the Services to Customer.
“Jitter” or “Network Jitter” refers to an undesirable variation in the interval at which packets are received, also described as the variability in Latency as measured in the variability over time of the packet Latency across a network. Jitter is calculated as aggregate average month ly metric measured by WAVE across the WAVE Backbone Network between a sample of WAVE POPs. Local access loops are not included. Periods of Excused Outage are not included in Jitter metrics.
“Latency” means how much time it takes, measured in milliseconds, for a packet of data to get from one designated point on WAVE’s Network to another designated point on WAVE’s Network. Latency is calculated as aggregate average monthly metric measured by WAVE across the WAVE Backbone Network between a sample of WAVE POPs. Local access loops are not included. Periods of Excused Outage are not included in Latency metrics.
“Mean Time to Restore ” or “ MTTR” means the average time required to restore the WAVE Network to a normally operating state in the event of an Outag e. MTTR is calculated on a circuit basis, as a monthly average of the time it takes WAVE to repair all Service Outages on the specific circuit. MTTR is measured from the time an Outage related Trouble Ticket is generated by the WAVE NOC until the time the Service is again Available. The cumulative length of Service Outages per circuit is divided by the number of Trouble Tickets in the billing month to derive the monthly MTTR per circuit:
MTTR in Hrs = Cumulative Length of Service Outages Per Month Per Circuit (per calendar month) Total Number of Trouble Tickets for Service Outages Per Month Per Circuit
Periods of Excused Outage are not included in MTTR metrics.
“Outage” means a disruption in the Service making the Service completely unavailable to Customer that is not an Excused Outage. For purposes of SLA -related credits and remedies, the period of unavailability begins when an Outage -related Trouble T icket is opened by the Customer and ends when the connection is restored , as measured by WAVE .
Unavailability does not include periods of Service degradation, such as slow data transmission.
823
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
Exhibit A: Service Level Agreement for High Availability Enterprise Services pg. 4 Wave Business Solutions, LLC Updated: 09/07/2016
PROPRIETARY AND CONFIDENTIAL
“Packet Loss” means the unintentional discarding of data packets in a network when a device (e.g., switch, router, etc.) is overloaded and ca nnot accept any incoming data. Packet Loss is calculated as aggregate average monthly metric measured by WAVE across the WAVE Backbone Network between a sample of WAVE POPs. Local access loops are not included. Periods of Excused Outage are not included in Packet Loss metrics.
“Scheduled Maintenance ” means any maintenance of the portion of the WAVE Network to which Customer’s router is connected that is performed during a standard maintenance window (1:00AM – 5:00AM Pacific Time). Customer will be notified via email at least forty -eight (48) hours in advance of any scheduled maintenance that is likely to affect Customer’s Service.
“Trouble Ticket” means a trouble ticket generated through the WAVE NOC upon notification of a Service -related problem.
Trouble Tickets ma y be generated by WAVE pursuant to its internal network monitoring process, or by Customer’s reporting of a problem to the WAVE NOC. In order for Customer to be eligible for credits or remedies under this SLA, Customer must contact the WAVE NOC and open a Trouble Ticket regarding the problem; Trouble Tickets generated internally by WAVE will not provide a basis for Customer credits or Chronic Outage remedies.
“WAVE Network” means all equipment, facilities and infrastructure that WAVE uses to provide Servi ces to Customer, and includes Customer’s access port. The “WAVE Network” does not include Customer owned or leased equipment (unless leased from WAVE), or any portion of Customer’s local area network after the demarcation point for the Services provided by WAVE.
“WAVE Backbone Network” means WAVE’s core fiber backbone that connects WAVE’s POPs and regional hubs.
“WAVE’s Network Operations Center ” or “ WAVE’s NOC ” means WAVE’s network operations center which is staffed 24x7x365 and can be reached at: 888-317-0488.

Christopher Hertel, Battalion Chief
Reginald Williams, Chief of Fire
Department:
Fire
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin, Ratifying Approval of Funding From the Placer County Ambulance Advisory Committee and Sierra-Sacramento Valley Emergency Medical Services Agency.
Background:
The Rocklin Fire Department provides Advanced Life Support (ALS) response to the City of Rocklin. Fire Department personnel are currently equipped with direct laryngoscopy devices on each emergency response unit. A direct laryngoscopy device allows for visualization of the larynx, and is used during resuscitation. However, use of video laryngoscopy devices would provide better line of sight and a higher success rate with less manipulation of the patient.
A formal funds request to Placer County Ambulance Advisory Committee and Sierra- Sacramento Valley Emergency Medical Services Agency (S-SV EMS) was made to reimburse the City of Rocklin for the purchase of six video laryngoscopy devices and supplies. On November 2, 2023, the Placer County Ambulance Advisory Committee and Sierra- Sacramento Valley Emergency Medical Services Agency approved the City of Rocklin Fire Department's request to purchase and will reimburse for video laryngoscopy devices and supplies with reimbursement up to an amount not to exceed $13,000 (Attachment 2).
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact to the General Fund from the staff recommendation. The award will require a budget amendment to increase the Fire Department's appropriation by $13,000 to execute the purchase with UE Medical Devices, Inc. The City of Rocklin will receive reimbursement from Sierra-Sacramento Valley Emergency Medical Services Agency for an amount not to exceed $13,000.

Memorandum
City of Rocklin
Fire Department
DATE: October 25, 2023
TO: John Poland, S-SV EMSA; Ambulance Advisory Committee FROM: Chris Hertel, Rocklin Fire Battalion Chief
SUBJECT: Placer County EMS Funds Request
Intent
Rocklin Fire Department respectfully submits a request for funds to purchase six (6) video laryngoscopes. In the setting of the critically ill patients, securing endotracheal intubation by direct laryngoscopy often requires multiple attempts with a higher complication rate due to the emergent, uncontrolled setting, comorbidities, and variability in expertise of operators. The use of video laryngoscopy would be superior to direct laryngoscopy during urgent endotracheal intubation.
Need
The Rocklin Fire Department provides Advanced Life Support response to the City of Rocklin and extends that level of care to mutual and automatic aid requests throughout the County and the State under the master mutual aid system. Rocklin currently operates direct laryngoscopy devices on each emergency response unit. We are requesting 6 video laryngoscopes devices so that each of our apparatus is able to deliver the same level of care and are equipped appropriately.
With a direct laryngoscope, it is necessary to obtain a line of sight from the maxillary teeth to the glottis, by placing the patient's head on a pillow and extending the head on the neck (sniffing position) to displace the tongue and epiglottis, which frequently obstruct the line of sight. In addition, an assistant is frequently required to apply pressure to the thyroid cartilage to obtain a clear view of the glottis, and it is often difficult for the assistant to adjust the direction and the degree of the pressure. With a video laryngoscope, because the image of the glottis is captured near the tip of the blade, only a few centimeters of line of sight will be required. In addition, an assistant can adjust the direction and degree of pressure on the neck by confirming the improvement of the view of the glottis on a video screen. Therefore, theoretically, a video laryngoscope would provide a better view of the glottis, and would increase the success rate of tracheal intubation.
Aziz et al. performed a randomized, controlled study, assessing the efficacy of a video laryngoscope (C-MAC video laryngoscope) in 300 patients with predicted difficult tracheal intubation, and have found that the success rate of tracheal intubation at the first attempt with the video laryngoscope was significantly higher (93%) than with a conventional Macintosh 831

Fire Department
laryngoscope (84%). The view of the glottis at laryngoscopy was significantly better, and the use of an endotracheal tube introducer (a gum elastic bougie) and pressure to the larynx (to obtain a better view of the glottis) were significantly less frequently required for the video laryngoscope.

Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Awarding the Contract for the City of Rocklin 2024 Weed and Rubbish Abatement and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Northern State Contractors, Inc.
Background:
The City’s Fuel Reduction Program reduces the threat of fire in the City by providing preventative maintenance (e.g., eliminate weeds, dry brush, dead trees) in the open space areas and vacant parcels throughout the city. This is accomplished by using goat and sheep grazing, as well as other methods such as handwork for rubbish and brush removal, tractor discing, and mowing.
Grazing Services
For the past 13 years, the City of Rocklin has contracted services for goat and sheep grazing on City-owned and maintained open space areas, for the purpose of fuel load reduction and general open space management. The US Army Corp of Engineers and California Department of Fish and Wildlife restrict the use of chemical and mechanical methods of vegetation control in open space preserves, which makes grazing the preferred method for open space management. When the City began utilizing grazing in 2010, there were 465 acres to be grazed. In 2024, the total open space acreage has increased to approximately 996 acres (Attachment 2) and the current contract for grazing services expires on December 31, 2023.
The bid for 2024 Grazing Services was advertised on September 7, 2023, and September 14, 2023, with the bid opening Thursday, October 9, 2023. Two (2) bids were received from the following (Attachment 3).
Item Number 3V.
845
Blue Tent Farms, LLC (Red Bluff)
$1,539,158.00
Legacy Ranching and Land Management (Grass Valley)
$1,775,050.20
In 2019, the average cost for grazing in the city was $350 per acre. The two bids that were received are significantly higher than the proposals received in 2019. Blue Tent’s price per acre is $495 for 2024 and increases 4% each year after, and Legacy proposed $594 per acre for the 3 years with no increase. The current grazer provided their breakdown to help illustrate the justification for cost increases as such and generally reflects the industry as a whole. In addition to regular costs associated with inflation, there has been a 71% increase in fuel cost over the life of the contract, changes to state regulations targeting the herding industry which has resulted in 112% increase in payroll, a 521% increase in insurance costs resulting in urban grazing compared to rural grazing, and a 163% increase in animal rental to address the city’s expanded open space program and logistics associated with grazing longer narrower waterways.
Staff has reviewed the low bid for sufficiency, determined it was responsive, and determined Blue Tent Farms LLC submitted a responsible bid. Staff recommends that the City Council award the contract to Blue Tent Farms LLC.
The first term of this agreement is for a term of three (3) years, from January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2026, with the option to renew the contract for up to two additional one-year terms at the City’s sole discretion, provided budget funds are available. The cost of the first three (3) year term is $1,539,158.00. Pursuant to the Rocklin Municipal Code 3.04.050, the City Manager, or their designee, has change order authority of fifteen (15) percent ($230,873.70) of the contract amount. The amount for this project including fifteen (15) percent change order authority brings the total cost to $1,770,031.70 for the initial three (3) year term.
In addition, staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or their designee, to add future acreage to the contract that has been annexed into the City’s open space program and has an identified funding source.
If the term of the contract is extended beyond the initial three-year term, any requests made by the Contractor for a price increase must be fully documented utilizing an appropriate Consumer or Producer Price Index or other relevant market data to justify a price change, not to exceed 4%. In its request for price increases Contractor shall cite sources, specific conditions, and document how those conditions affect the cost.
Weed and Rubbish Abatement
During the 2023 season (April – September), approximately 90 acres were abated. Staff expects a similar amount during the next season (Attachment 5); however, that can increase or decrease depending on the addition of open space and the number of vacant parcels in which the owners elect to have the City abate their property.
A Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued for the City of Rocklin 2024 Weed and Rubbish Abatement Project and was advertised on October 5, 2023, and October 12, 2023, with a submittal date of Wednesday, November 15, 2023. Two (2) proposals were received from the following contractors (Attachment 6):
Northern State Contractors, Inc. (Sacramento) $259,500 DCS (Hazleton, PA) $463,530 846
The proposals were evaluated by City Staff, and reference checks were performed. Staff received excellent recommendations from the references for Northern State Contractors, Inc. and recommends the City Council award the contract for the project to Northern State Contractors, Inc.
The proposal consisted of a fee schedule that provides the costs of various forms of abatement (discing, handwork, mowing) per acre. The proposal item/tasks costs can be used on various budgeted maintenance and projects, allowing for other divisions to utilize this contract provided there is available funding within their budget.
The first term of this agreement is for a term of three (3) years, from January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2026, with the option to renew the contract for up to two (2) additional years.
The annual cost of the contract is for a not-to-exceed amount of $200,000, with a maximum not-to-exceed amount of $1,000,000 over the five-year period. This not-to-exceed amount has been identified to allow for the use for other projects, within the city.
No additional budget appropriations will be needed as any potential funds have already been included in the budget. Once the contract is implemented, staff will issue work orders on a per job basis throughout the year. In addition, staff recommends authorizing the City Manager, or their designee, the authority to extend the contract for two (2) additional one (1) year terms, as well as authorization to add/delete acreage as vacant parcels are added or removed.
Environmental Analysis:
The City of Rocklin’s Weed Abatement and Open Space Management Grazing Program Regulations and Permit Conditions includes a Notice of Exemption (NOE) complying with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements.
The City of Rocklin’s Environmental Coordinator has reviewed the City of Rocklin Weed Abatement Project under the previously approved Notice of Exemption for the City’s weed abatement projects, Resolution No. 2019-259 and is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California Code of Regulations Section 15301.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact to approving the contracts, as sufficient funds are available in the annual budget in the General Fund, CFD 5 Fund (232) and CFD 6 Fund (233).

PART 2 – GENERAL CONDITIONS
2.01 SUMMARY
A. It is the intention and purpose of this specification to establish “Standards for Maintenance of Vacant Parcels”, and to establish minimum equipment and staffing levels required by the contractor to perform weed abatement services. Work must be performed in a timely manner; the majority of the work will be seasonal and critical for timely fire protection.
1. Contractor will be provided a high priority list that must be complete by July1st.
2. The lower priority list must be complete by August 1 st.
B. Bid pricing will be estimated by unit as determined by acre coverage, and rate for hand clearing, flail mowing, and blade/tractor/discing work. Based on historical weed abatement, following is an example of approximate workload (these numbers may vary +/-):
1. Hand Work:40 acres
2. Discing: 20 acres
3. Mowing:30 acres

A. The contractor shall coordinate all operations with the City Inspector. The City will provide the contractor with a detailed list of priority sites to be cleared. All parcels on the high priority list must be cleared by July 1st. Parcels on the lower priority list must be done by August 1st. If the contractor fails to perform within these deadlines or City authorized extension, it may result in a reduction of payment as follows:

B. Contractor must coordinate with City Inspector to minimize noise, dust, and any other nuisances that may affect adjacent neighbors.
2.05 EXAMINATION OF PLAN, CONDITIONS

B. Abatement activities shall be performed in such a manner that inconvenience to adjacent residents shall be minimized.
C. Dust shall be kept to a minimum whenever possible. If the Contractor is not able to adequately control the dust conditions, the City Inspector may terminate the abatement activity. All work must meet air quality standards.
D. Upon mutual agreement of the Contractor and the Inspector, a Contractor may be asked to work his or her equipment on a lot other than that designated in the contract award. The Contractor will be compensated at the contracted acre price or on an hourly rate whichever the City inspector selects. If the City feels that these rates are not in the best interest of the City, it may set a rate which is mutually agreed upon between the City and the Contractor.
E. All assignments shall be completed by the date specified. Starting dates may be changed at the discretion of the Inspector. Adequate deadline allowances will be made for postponements. Ten (10) days’ notice shall be given by the Inspector of any change in dates. Satisfactory quantity and/or quality of work will be the judgment of the Project Manager.
874

Department:
Public Services
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Rocklin Approving and Authorizing the Purchase of Two Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Fire Prevention Vehicles from Winner Chevrolet and Authorizing the City Manager to Purchase the Vehicles From Winner Chevrolet.
Background:
Included in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating Budget, adopted by the City Council on June 27, 2023 (Resolution No. 2023-109), was the purchase of two new Fire Prevention Vehicles.
Rocklin Municipal Code Section 3.04.090(C) authorizes the City to enter into cooperative purchasing arrangements with other governmental entities without separate competitive bidding. The state's program provides local government agencies access to competitively bid and publicly solicited contracts from vendors who supply goods and services (Attachment 2).
These contracts are created through a competitive bid process that allows members to “piggyback” on the competitive bid contract, eliminating the need to complete the individual RFP/Bid process allowing the city to move quickly to secure services/equipment.
Pursuant to the state contract, Winner Chevrolet Inc. (Elk Grove) has issued quotes for the vehicles noted above for a total amount of $98,585 (rounded). Staff recommends the purchase vehicles from Winner Chevrolet pursuant to California Contracts No. 1-22-23-20D and No. 1-22-23-23D.
Fiscal Impact:
The total purchase cost for two vehicles is $98,585, exceeding the budgeted amount of $80,000. The additional funding will be provided through anticipated operational savings. If a budget amendment is needed it will be included in a future quarterly financial report.

On September 28, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-169 authorizing the City Manager to execute the Construction Agreement (Agreement) for the ADA Ramps & Concrete Services with PBM Construction, Inc. These services consist of the construction/retrofit of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps and concrete services such as the construction of sidewalks, and concrete flatwork throughout the city. The initial period of the agreement was for one year with the option to renew it for two additional years at the City’s discretion, and it is currently in its third year.
In addition to bringing various ADA ramps and sidewalks throughout the city into compliance under the ADA, anytime the profile of the roadway is altered, all existing ADA curb ramps must be brought into compliance. These ramps along with any additional construction/retrofit services are scheduled to occur prior to the start of the projects to prevent disturbing newly resurfaced roadways after the fact. In order to accommodate the scheduled road resurfacing projects and necessary ADA ramp and construction services, a change order to increase in the agreement amount for Fiscal Year 2023/24 from $249,500 to $315,000 is needed.
Fiscal Impact:
Change Order No. 1 brings the contract cost to $315,000, which exceeds the budgeted amount; therefore, a budget amendment is necessary and will be included in the next quarterly report. Sufficient funds are available in the SB325 Gas Tax Fund (210) balance to support the recommended budget amendment.
Item Number 3X.
