APPENDIX C – CITY OF SALINAS PEDESTRIAN SAFETY

ENHANCEMENT DEVISES POLICY
For reference, this appendix presents the City of Salinas Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devises Policy near schools.

Exhibit A
The City of Salinas
Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devices Policy
Policy adopted on ___________________________. Resolution No. ___________________ The Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices states that “…uniformity means treating similar situations in a similar way. The use of uniform traffic control devices does not, in itself, constitute uniformity. A standard device used where it is not appropriate is as objectionable as a nonstandard device; in fact, this may be worse, because such misuse might result in disrespect at those locations where the device is needed and appropriate.” To be consistent with appropriate use of traffic control devices and in response to increasing requests for traffic safety enhancements at school locations, the City has approved policy with criteria for when to install Pedestrian Safety Enhancements on City Streets. More specifically, this policy restricts the installation of these enhancements to specific locations at school zones only. The specific safety enhancement installations that are governed by this policy are:
1) High visibility crosswalks with an integrated Pedestrian LOOK pavement/sidewalk marking,
2) In-Street Pedestrian Crossing Sign
The City of Salinas is committed to the installation of the appropriate and the required traffic control devices on City Streets, including locations along school zones. However, the effectiveness of these and any traffic control device requires an appropriate amount of enforcement for violators of the control devices and appropriate education for users of these devices (motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists). Without appropriate enforcement and education, any installation of traffic control devices will not be as effective.

In response to budget constraints that prevent more frequent enforcement of traffic control devices at school zones, the City will consider the installation of traffic safety enhancements at school zones. This policy will provide the criteria for the use of a High Visibility Crosswalk and an integrated Pedestrian “LOOK” sign at school zones and the In-Street Pedestrian Crossing Sign. These enhancements supports pedestrian crossings at school zones.

I. Application. In order to receive consideration under this policy, an applicant must submit a written request to the City of Salinas Development and Engineering Services Department, ATTN: Traffic Section, 200 Lincoln Avenue, Salinas, California 93901. A letter from the School and the School District must accompany the request stating the school’s and the district’s concurrence with the request.

II. Consideration. Effective on the adoption of this policy, requests for High Visibility Crosswalks and the integrated Pedestrian LOOK Sign shall be subject to the following criteria:

1. School Zone Criteria. Said Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devices will be located at an existing school crosswalk adjacent to the school property, and along the suggested route to school; and

2. No installations at Controlled Intersections. Said Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devices shall not be installed at intersections where ALL WAY STOPS or a Traffic Signal is already present; and

3. Installation only on two lane streets. Said Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devices shall only be installed on two-lane streets. (Existing studies support installation on two-lane streets but results are mixed on multi-lane streets. It is not clear if these crosswalks increase yielding of motor vehicles to pedestrians on multi-lane streets); and

4. School Pedestrian Warrant.
a) At least 40 school pedestrians are crossing the uncontrolled street during each of any two hours (not necessarily consecutive) of a normal school day; and b) The vehicle volume through the crossing exceeds 500 vehicles per hour during the same hour the students are going to and/or from school during normal school hours; or
c) The number of pedestrians that are crossing the uncontrolled street in 4.a multiplied by the vehicle volume through the crossing during the same hour students are going to and/or from school during normal school hours exceeds 32,000.

This Policy provides a technically-based and uniform process for the recommendation of the above Pedestrian Safety Enhancements. However, each location requested for high visibility crosswalk will have its unique characteristics that may not be addressed by these criteria.

Other criteria that may have to be considered include unique street configuration, sight visibility requirements, other heavy uses of the street that are not school related, and other equally important considerations.

The decision to use a particular traffic control device at a particular location should be made on the basis of either an engineering study or the application of engineering judgment. Thus while the MUTCD, the California Supplement or this Policy provides standards, guidance or options for design and application of a traffic control device, the MUTCD, California Supplement or this Policy should not be considered a substitute for sound engineering judgment.

At the City Engineer’s discretion, traffic studies may be conducted to examine other considerations not part of this Policy’s criteria. Results of these studies may become the basis to support or oppose recommendation resulting from previously considered criteria.

III. Commission Consideration City staff will bring its recommendation to the Traffic and Transportation Commission (T&TC). The meeting of the T&TC provides a public forum for the applicant or any impacted party to support or protest City staff’s recommendation. The Traffic and Transportation Commission may recommend approval or denial of the applicant’s request based on the criteria above for these Pedestrian Safety Enhancement Devices.

IV. Council Consideration. The City Council makes the final decision regarding the request for a school high visibility crosswalk. The meeting of the City Council provides another public forum to appeal decisions of the T&TC made following the application of this policy.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 13, 2023
DEPARTMENT: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
FROM: DAVID JACOBS P.E., L.S., PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: ANDREW EASTERLING, TRAFFIC ENGINEER
TITLE: 2023-2024 PRIORITIZATION OF RESTRIPING PROJECTS
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve the 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Several service requests to restripe roads have been received from Salinas residents. The number of requests exceed the City’s budgeted resources, and there is therefore a need to prioritize restriping requests. Staff has developed a prioritization of the requested streets. The Council is requested to review and provide feedback on the proposed 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects. Staff recommends the approval of the 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects.

The Council may choose to recommend changes to the Prioritization of Restriping Projects.

BACKGROUND:

Most thermoplastic pavement markings have an upper limit life expectancy of (six) 6 to (nine) 9 years depending on weather and traffic conditions. Historically, the City replaced pavement markings whenever a road was resurfaced, which traditionally occurred at a similar frequency.

However, the City has not been able to perform pavement maintenance on all of its streets within this time frame and some streets now have faded pavement markings. The City has received several requests to restripe roads and the number of requests exceeds the City’s budgeted resources. There is therefore a need to prioritize restriping requests.

The City’s street maintenance crews can perform minor restriping work, but for larger projects the City cannot restripe entire streets using its own work forces and must contract the work out. On October 22, 2019, the City awarded an On-Call Services for Traffic Control Devices Contract to Chrisp Company via Resolution No. 21722. Unit prices for restriping work were competitively bid and using this contract the estimated cost to restripe a road can vary between roughly $6 to $28 per linear feet (LF) depending on the number of lanes and legends on any given roadway.

As of December 31, 2022, numerous restriping requests have been submitted to the City. Two segments were screened out where pavement work was planned, including East Romie Lane and Page | 2
Boronda Road, and of the remaining service requests sixteen (16) road segments were requested for restriping and do not have any planned pavement work. Based on the On-Call Services Contract pricing, staff estimates the total costs to restripe all sixteen (16) of these facilities is roughly $715,000.00. The City’s anticipated restriping budget (CIP 9081-66.4000) for FY 23-24 is $200,000, including soft costs. Staff estimates the City can restripe at least five (5) segments within the anticipated budget depending on the length and complexity of the individual restriping projects.

Additionally, staff recommends retaining roughly $30,000 in the account, which will provide resources to respond to smaller service requests, such as crosswalks, through the end of the fiscal year.

The City has no established prioritization policy for restriping projects and staff is recommending that the 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects are based on staffs’ opinion of needs and budgetary constraints. On small two-lane, two-way roads centerlines are not always required by the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the City’s standard for pavement markings. The City previously installed centerlines on Maple Street, Rider Avenue, and Schilling Place, however these roads do not require centerline markings based on the MUTCD.

Consequently, with a finite amount of funding and a growing list of roads which need to be restriped, staff is recommending these roads be prioritized last.

Staff recommends retaining roughly $30,000 in the CIP account to be able to respond to smaller service requests, such as crosswalks, through the end of the fiscal year. Once the allotted budget has been depleted, the backlogged restriping service requests will be held until resources become available or until the next re-prioritization recommendation.

TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION:

The 2023-24 Prioritization of Restriping Projects was presented to the Traffic and Transportation Commission at its May 11, 2023 meeting. The Commission voted (3-3) on an alternative motion to recommend staff evaluate and measure restriping needs for every City street and provide a full report to the Commission.

There is not a well establish engineering method for measuring restriping needs, however there are several recognized methods for measuring pavement markings’ retro-reflectivity. These techniques can be timing consuming and cost prohibitive. The City has nearly 300 centerline miles of roads to maintain, and with a relatively small restriping budget, the estimated cost for surveying City streets would exceed the annual budget and leave no funding available for actual restriping work. Therefore, staff recommends the 2023-24 Prioritization of Restriping Projects based on the service requests received from residents, without a City-wide retro-reflectivity survey. Staff notes that the pavement condition index (PCI) score provides a measurement for the pavement condition and therefor the PCI score may provide some indication of striping conditions.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects supports the Council’s goals of “Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability” and “Public Safety”.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The Public Works Department and Finance Department manage the project accounting. The Public Works Department manages construction contract, inspection, and final acceptance of construction projects.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

There is no impact to the General Fund. The City’s anticipated restriping budget, CIP Account 5800.50.9081-66.4000 is anticipated for $200,000, leaving approximately $150,000 for restriping work for fiscal year 2023-2024. The CIP account is funded using SB1 Maintenance and Rehab funds. The 2023-2024 Prioritization of Restriping Projects establishes the priority ranking of projects. Once the first projects are completed and final costs are known, and if remaining resources are available, staff will work on the next highest scoring project until the budget is depleted. If the next highest priority project cannot be completed with remaining funds, but lower priority projects can be completed within the remaining budget, staff recommends treating the lower priority project in order to maximize the use of available funds.

FROM: DAVID JACOBS, P.E., L.S., PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: ADRIANA ROBLES, PE, CFM, CITY ENGINEER

JONATHAN ESTEBAN, ASSISTANT ENGINEER
TITLE: CITY HALL EMERGENCY ROOF REPAIR, PROJECT NO. 8170 RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution to:
1) Approve Contract Change Order No. 1 to F C & Sons Roofing, Inc. for the City Hall Emergency Roof Repair, Project No. 8170 In the amount of $412,031.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to Contract Change Order No. 1; and
2) Authorize 20% of the new contract amount for construction contingencies ($211,660.40) for the City Hall Emergency Roof Repair, Project No. 8170; and 3) Authorize expenditure cost for all professional emergency moving, Information Technology changes and unforeseen moving/transition expenses relating to the Emergency Roof Project in an amount not to exceed $100,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On April 4, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 22627 awarding an emergency construction contract to F C & Sons Roofing, Inc. for the City Hall Emergency Roof Repair, Project No. 8170 in the amount of $646,271.00. Following the execution of the agreement and during the pre-construction phase, the Contractor discovered that the existing asbestos-containing fireproofing spray below the roof deck was friable and would be disturbed during emergency roof repair activities, creating a potential hazard to staff below the first-floor roof. The Contractor recommended for the asbestos fireproofing located above the first floor of City Hall be abated prior to construction activities. Contract Change Order No. 1 for the abatement of asbestos within City Hall in the amount of $412,031.00 is above the authorized 15% construction contingency of $96,941.00 and requires Council approval, per Policy 75-1.

BACKGROUND:

On April 4, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 22627 awarding an emergency construction contract to F C & Sons Roofing, Inc. for the City Hall Emergency Roof Repair, Project No. 8170 in the amount of $646,271.00.

Page | 2
The contract was awarded to resolve the immediate need for repair of roof leaks causing damage to staff and equipment within City Hall. It was intended to move forward prior to abatement and other building improvements. However, following contract execution and during pre-construction project discussions, the Contractor discovered that the existing asbestos-containing fireproofing material below the roof deck was friable and would be disturbed during emergency roof repair activities, creating a potential hazard to staff below the first-floor roof. The Contractor recommended for the asbestos fireproofing material within the first floor of City Hall be abated prior to emergency roof repair work.

Contract Change Order No. 1 (CCO1) directs the Contractor to perform asbestos abatement necessary within the first floor of City Hall to safely perform roof repairs thereafter in the amount of $412,031.00. The scope of work for Change Order No. 1 includes removal and disposal of approximately 9,890 SF of asbestos fireproofing material, 13,400 SF of carpet, floor tiles, and asbestos containing mastic under full containment and negative pressure. Removal and disposal of all materials shall comply with all applicable codes, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, and other legal requirements of local, state, and federal agencies such as Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), California OSHA (Cal/OSHA), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Monterey Bay Air Resources District (MBARD).

Department Policy 75-1, Item 3, requires City Council approval for issuance of contract change orders of more than $100,000.00, or when the cumulative total of Contract Change Orders exceeds 10% of the original contract amount. At contract award, 15% of the contract amount was authorized for construction contingencies per Resolution No. 22627 for an amount of $96,941.00.

However, this amount of authorized contingency is insufficient to cover CCO 1 of $412,031.00.

Staff is seeking Council approval of Contract Change Order No. 1 to address potential hazard from disturbance of existing asbestos materials by the emergency roof repair activities in the amount of $412,031.00 and approval of an additional 20% construction contingencies of the new contract amount, $211,660.40 for construction contingencies. If approved, the new contract amount will be$1,058.302.00 with CCO1 and the new total not to exceed amount for construction will be $1,269,962.40. The net change in overall authorized amount is $526,750.75. See Table 1 below for a breakdown.

A motion to approve a resolution to allow the purchase and renewal of Microsoft Office 365 Software and Azure Active Directory renewal from Dell, LP., in an amount not to exceed $321,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City of Salinas continues to maintain and support various technology programs and platforms for City Departments. The Microsoft 365 licensing program is for customers, like the City who use Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Office, and other desktop applications. The software licenses provide City staff access to required applications such as Word, Excel, Power Point, Teams, Azure AD and Outlook email via the cloud and/or desktop environments.

BACKGROUND:

The City currently uses Microsoft software and platforms for its day-to-day operations. Software includes Word, Excel, Power Point, Teams, Azure AD and Outlook email via the cloud and/or desktop environments. Each of these applications requires seat licenses that are renewed on an annual basis. Due to the timing of this renewal, the City has requested a 38-month contract, so renewal does not take place during the fiscal year transition period in July. Subsequent annual renewals will be brought to Council for approval during those future years.

Maintaining software licenses is necessary for the maintenance and operations of multiple staff activities, maintain staff collaboration tools, email, and Microsoft authentication tools (Azure AD).

The current resolution will authorize the continuation of maintaining core Microsoft applications in cloud and virtual desktop environments.

Funding has been submitted for Council approval as part of the FY 2023-24 Annual Budget.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The Finance department will continue to work with all affected departments during software upgrades or patch releases.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 13, 2023
DEPARTMENT: LIBRARY & COMMUNITY SERVICES
FROM: KRISTAN LUNDQUIST, DIRECTOR
BY: ANA AMBRIZ, REC-PARK SUPERINTENDENT
TITLE: REPLACEMENT OF PLAYGROUND STRUCTURES AT

NATIVIDAD AND STEINBECK NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Agreement with Miracle Playsystems Inc. and Ross Recreation Inc. for the purchase of playground equipment and labor to replace playground structures at Natividad and Steinbeck Neighborhood Parks.

DISCUSSION:

On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), which provided the City of Salinas with $51,567,313 in relief funds. In September 2021, the City Council allocated ARPA funds for several government service projects, including $2 million dollars for playground structures, park benches and BBQ grills, the majority of which was to be spent in the 93905 and 93906 zip codes which were hit hardest by the COVID-19 pandemic. With the allocation, the Council Resolution called for staff to check in with the Finance Committee on these and the Public Works sidewalk/street repair allocations.

The City of Salinas has 35 playgrounds located in parks/facilities across the City. An assessment of the playgrounds was conducted as part of the Parks, Recreation & Libraries Master Planning effort in 2017. The majority of the playgrounds were found to be in fair and/or good condition.

The playground at Williams Ranch Neighborhood Park was found to be in poor condition and in need of replacement.

In September 2022 the Council approved a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an Agreement with Miracle Playsystems and Ross Recreation for the purchase of playground equipment and labor to repair playground structures at designated locations throughout the park system, with a focus on ARPA funding direction provided by Council. In addition to the repairs approved in 2022, staff also recommended the full replacement of two (2) additional playground structures, one at Natividad Neighborhood Park and one Steinbeck Neighborhood Park. These two playground locations fall within the 93906 zip code and are in poor condition.

Page | 2
Across the system, we have playground apparatus from four different playground manufacturing companies including Ross Recreation, Miracle Playsystems, Playcraft (Park Planet) and Play World (David Bang Associates, Inc.). The City has Miracle Playsystem playgrounds in twelve (12) parks and Ross Recreation playgrounds in twelve (12) other parks making them the two major manufacturers in our system. For consistency purposes and to maintain standardization of the equipment systemwide, staff recommends utilizing Miracle Playsystems and Ross Recreation for the new playgrounds at Natividad Neighborhood and Steinbeck Neighborhood Parks. Park Maintenance Staff is most familiar with equipment from these two manufacturers, can make minor repairs inhouse and it allows us to purchase larger orders for items that regularly need repair, i.e., swing clevises. Consistent with Purchasing Policies and ordinance (2576) the purchase of equipment in the amount of more than $30,000 with one vendor requires City Council authorization. The replacement of these two playgrounds will total $339,706.98.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

The playground repairs are consistent with the City Council Goals of:
 Youth and Seniors
 Infrastructure and Environmental Sustainability
 Public Safety
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

Funds are appropriated and available in account 3911.55.8171.

• Firewall / DMZ – SpeakWrite environments are protected by modern firewalls utilizing strict rules to minimize exposed services.
• Monitoring Security – SpeakWrite IT is notified immediately when a virus or malware is detected on any computer. IT contacts the employee and rebuilds the employee’s computer.

SpeakWrite IT is notified when there is irregular network traffic and researches and responds to each alert.

Encryption and SSL Encryption
SpeakWrite uses encryption when sending and receiving files over the Internet. This includes client uploads of audio, client downloads of completed jobs, clients viewing and updating personal information, and the upload and download of client jobs to typists.

Authentication
Both Users and typists require authentication in the system. Clients are authenticated when they use the toll-free dictation line or login to the web site. Typists are authenticated at multiple steps in the transcription process to increase the level of security.

Authorization
Authorization verifies client access upon logging in and which functionality is available to each particular client. For typists, authorization is used to verify that they have been assigned a job and verifies the authority of a typist to download job information and upload finished documents.

Secure Network of Typists
SpeakWrite conducts a review of each typist’s employment history and utilizes a 3rd party entity to perform a 7-year criminal background check, which includes a social security number trace, felony and misdemeanor search, multi-state instant criminal check with verification and a nationwide sex offender registry check on each one. Each typist signs Nondisclosure and Confidentiality Agreements. Typists complete training on handling client material, HIPAA compliance and undergo consistent internal review. U.S. and Canadian-based typists are geographically dispersed through the country. Jobs are assigned at random to ensure that no typist receives multiple jobs about the same case or subject, and a typist’s identity is never available to other typists.

Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS)
SpeakWrite operates under the security and data protection requirements of the FBI’s CJIS compliance.

Optional two factor authentication
Clients may elect to employ two factor authentication on their accounts. 9 Volume/Capacity
SpeakWrite will accept and process any volume the Department submits without any prior notification or rate quote. Our network of typists work around the clock to ensure your transcription needs are met.

13 Assumptions
• Upon authorization to proceed, designated account administrator will participate in the activities required to begin service including: determining User sign up procedures, establishing the security approach for emails, confirming report formats, and confirming and completing training requirements.
• SpeakWrite’s average monthly turnaround time is based on routine dictations employees complete in their everyday work. Should the Purchaser encounter a frequent, ongoing and sustained need for a type of dictation that falls outside the norms of what can reasonably be done within the required timeframes, SpeakWrite will immediately notify the designated account administrator to determine the appropriate resolution. • SpeakWrite follows the standards for preparing documents found in its Document Preparation Policy as described at www.speakwrite.com . • All work done for SpeakWrite customers will be transcribed as dictated in the order dictated.

SpeakWrite does not guess what a client might have meant, replace or correct formatting, transcribe music lyrics, or recreate forms. All work will be transcribed as dictated and based on the instructions provided within the audio or via the job instruction interface when uploading digital audio and video files. Any inaudible portions of the audio will be marked with four asterisks (****) in the typed document as an indication that the transcriptionist was unable to decipher that portion of the audio file.

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 13, 2023
DEPARTMENT: SALINAS POLICE DEPARTMENT
FROM: ROBERTO FILICE, CHIEF OF POLICE
BY: TONYA ERICKSON, POLICE SERVICES ADMINISTRATOR
TITLE: DIRECT PURCHASE OF EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT FOR

POLICE VEHICLES
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing the direct purchase of emergency equipment to upfit 10 police vehicles for a total cost not to exceed $223,884.73.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that City Council approve the direct purchase of emergency equipment from Lehr to upfit 10 police vehicles for a total cost not to exceed $223,884.73.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

On August 9, 2022 and December 13, 2022, City Council approved the direct purchase of ten (10) Ford Police Interceptor Utility vehicles which will be assigned to patrol functions. Staff are now recommending the direct purchase of emergency equipment to upfit these 10 new police vehicles for a total cost not to exceed $223,884.73.

BACKGROUND:

During FY 2020-21, the Salinas Police Department, in collaboration with the Public Works Fleet Division, developed a comprehensive Police Vehicle Replacement Plan which established target replacement cycles based upon vehicle assignment, usage data and best practices in fleet management. The plan projected necessary replacement through the next two decades, and identified the annual funding needed based upon current costs. The Police Vehicle Replacement Plan is used to guide replacement decisions and is intended to be updated based upon current data and vehicle needs. For vehicles assigned to patrol functions, the target replacement cycle is 6 years and/or 120,000 miles and the plan identified the need to add additional patrol vehicles over the next few years to ensure vehicle usage would support replacement at this frequency.

Page | 2
On August 9, 2022, City Council approved the direct purchase of citywide fleet replacement vehicles, including ten (10) Ford Police Interceptor Utility vehicles which will be assigned to patrol functions. On December 13, 2022, Cit Council approved an amended Resolution with updated pricing for these vehicles. Emergency equipment was not previously requested as we did not want to delay the ordering of vehicles while we continued to evaluate our best options for the purchase and install of necessary emergency equipment.

The Public Works Fleet Division began consistently servicing police vehicles in mid-2020 and since then has expanded the work to include the maintenance and repair of the associated emergency equipment. Over the last two fiscal years, Fleet Division mechanics have performed additional work and attended trainings related to emergency vehicle equipment, and three of the mechanics are now certified Emergency Vehicle Technicians. In 2021, Fleet Division mechanics successfully completed the upfitting of one complete patrol vehicle and have since taken on the installation of emergency equipment on some administrative and specialty vehicles. Given the increased training and experience, as well as the approval of a new Upfitting Mechanic position dedicated to installation of emergency vehicle equipment during the FY 2022-23 budget process, Public Works had planned to assume all upfitting responsibilities. Unfortunately, despite the approval of the Upfitting Mechanic position allocation, the City has not yet completed the development of a job description for this critical position, nor progressed toward hiring this position. For this reason, the Police Department must now rely upon vendors for the installation of the emergency equipment.

Given the delays and challenges with the creation of the new Upfitting Mechanic position, we have requested a quote from Lehr which includes both the purchase and installation of equipment.

Installation-related charges increase the cost of each vehicle by $8,778.51, or a total of $87,785.10 for these ten (10) patrols vehicles. Should the City make progress on the previously approved Upfitting Mechanic position, we will attempt to build the vehicles in-house which would result in significant cost savings.

The department is requesting approval for the direct purchase and installation of the necessary emergency equipment identified below. We are also requesting approval of a 2.5% contingency as market conditions have led to unexpected price increases and instances of vendors not being able to honor previously quoted prices.

Vendor Vehicle Function Price per Unit # Units Total Cost Lehr General Patrol 21,838.51 10 218,385.10

2.5% Contingency 5,459.63
Not to Exceed Total 223,884.73
There are no local vendors for the purchase of the emergency vehicle equipment indicated above.

We have found Lehr to consistently provide the most competitive prices for specialized emergency equipment. The City Council has the authority to approve this direct purchase under Salinas Municipal code Section12-27 and without application of the local purchasing preference pursuant to Salinas Municipal Code Section 12-28.080.

Page | 3
Police Community Advisory Committee
The Police Chief presented this direct purchase request to the Police Community Advisory Committee on May 24, 2023. The Committee had no questions or concerns regarding this requested action.

CEQA CONSIDERATION:

Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).

STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:

Approving this Resolution will support the City Council’s Strategic Plan Goal of Public Safety and Effective and Culturally Responsive Government.

DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

The Police Department has coordinated with the Public Works Fleet Division on the selection and specification of emergency equipment for police vehicles and will coordinate with the Finance Department during the purchasing process.

FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:

No additional funds are requested to support this purchase. Funds are appropriated and available within the Police Vehicle Replacement account, 5800.40.9579.

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE DIRECT PURCHASE OF

WHEREAS, the department must purchase emergency equipment for the 10 new police vehicles; and
WHEREAS, there are no local vendors available for this specialized emergency equipment and Lehr has provided a quote for $21,838.51 per vehicle for the purchase and installation of emergency equipment; and
WHEREAS, the department is requesting an additional 2.5% contingency, totaling $5,459.63, given current market conditions which have led to unexpected price increases and instances of vendors not honoring quoted prices; and

CITY OF SALINAS

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: JUNE 13, 2023
DEPARTMENT: SALINAS POLICE DEPARTMENT
FROM: ROBERTO FILICE, CHIEF OF POLICE
BY: TONYA ERICKSON, POLICE SERVICES ADMINISTRATOR
TITLE: DIRECT PURCHASE OF AB-481 EQUIPMENT
RECOMMENDED MOTION:

A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing the direct purchase of unmanned aerial vehicles and associated equipment, diversionary devices, and ammunition for a total cost not to exceed $59,994.91.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that City Council authorize the direct purchase of two DJI Matrice 30T unmanned aerial vehicles and associated equipment for use by our Salinas Police Aerial Support (SPAS) Team, as well as 168 diversionary devices, and 21 cases of ammunition to be used by the department’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team. Equipment will be purchased from UVT, LC Action, and San Diego Police Equipment Co. Inc. for a total cost not to exceed $59,994.91.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The department’s Salinas Police Aerial Support (SPAS) Team has the need for two DJI Matrice 30T unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) with associated equipment and batteries to replace damaged equipment. The department’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team have a need for 168 diversionary devices, and 21 cases of specialty ammunition for use during training and operations. Equipment will be purchased from UVT, LC Action, and San Diego Police Equipment Co. Inc. for a total cost not to exceed $59,994.91. Assembly Bill 481, codified in Government Code sections 7070 through 7075, requires a law enforcement agency (LEA) to obtain approval from the applicable governing body prior to the funding, acquisition, or use of “Military Equipment” as defined by the Bill. As the items being requested are defined as “Military Equipment” per AB 481, we are seeking City Council approval prior to purchasing.

BACKGROUND:

On April 4, 2023, while assisting the Monterey County Sheriff’s Office with response to a call of a subject with a rifle. The Salinas Police Aerial Support (SPAS) Team provided assistance with monitoring the incident from the air. While assistant with taking photos and video footage of the scene, the unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) was damaged when it fell approximately 90 feet and crashed into the ground. The drone and installed accessories were valued at approximately $45,000. The City successfully submitted an insurance claim for this incident and recently received $42,460 to be used toward replacement equipment. After reviewing options, The SPAS Team is requesting to purchase two DJI Matrice 30T unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) with associated equipment and batteries as a replacement. We have secured a quote from UVT, totaling $34,492.15, for these replacement items. Remaining insurance funds will be used to purchase maintenance items.

The Salinas Police Department’s Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team has the need to purchase diversionary devices and specialty ammunition for used exclusively by the team during training and operations. The 120 Mini Flashbangs and 48 Flashbangs being requested are diversionary devices used exclusively by the SWAT Team during training and high-risk operations. New SWAT Team members require dedicated training on these items, and existing SWAT Team members undergo regularly scheduled training to maintain specialized skills with this equipment. We have secured a quote from LC Action, totaling $13,513.79, for these diversionary devices. The SWAT Team also has the need to purchase .308 and .338 ammunition for exclusive use by the specialized SWAT snipers during training and high-risk situations. We are requesting 19 cases of .308 ammunition and two cases of .338 ammunition. We have secured a quote from San Diego Police Equipment Co. Inc., totaling $11,588.97, for this ammunition.

Assembly Bill 481 – Military Equipment Funding, Acquisition, and Use, requires the Salinas Police Department to obtain approval from the Salinas City Council prior to the funding, acquisition, or use of “Military Equipment” as defined by the Bill. The equipment and supplies within this request meet the criteria of AB 481 Category 1: Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial vehicles, and Category 10: Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code, with the exception of standard issue service weapons, and thus City Council approved is required prior to acquisition. More information about AB 481, including Salinas Police Department’s policy and equipment inventory is available at www.salinaspd.org/assembly-bill-481. Salinas Police Department Policy 709 Addendum A provides the applicable equipment inventory, including the purpose of equipment, cost, lifespan, and authorized use.

There are no local vendors that sell this specialized equipment and supplies, and we have selected existing vendors with long and positive history serving law enforcement. The attached quotes total $59,994.91. Given the absence of local vendors, as well as the information provided, the City Council has the authority to approve this direct purchase under Salinas Municipal code Section12- 27 and without application of the local purchasing preference pursuant to Salinas Municipal Code Section 12-28.080.
