Consultant shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable insurance language effecting coverage required by this Agreement.

DEPARTMENT: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
FROM: LISA BRINTON, DIRECTOR
THROUGH: ANGELINE ANZINI, CHIEF BUILDING OFFICIAL
BY: YAZMIN OCHOA-FLORES, ADMINISTRATIVE ANALYST
TITLE: AUTHORIZATION OF YEAR THREE PROJECTDOX EPLAN
RENEWAL AND CORRESPONDING SERVICE AGREEMENTS
WITH AVOLVE SOFTWARE, INC.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution authorizing the City Manager or designee to negotiate and execute a Year Three ProjectDox ePlan Renewal and corresponding Service Agreements with Avolve Software, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $138,000 through December 2024.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On June 22, 2021, the City of Salinas entered into a Services Agreement with Avolve Software Inc., the developer of OAS and ProjectDox software (Resolution No. 22140 (N.C.S.) . OAS and ProjectDox software are utilized to provide residents, design professionals , and developers the ability to submit their permit applications for review and approval electronically. Electronic plan review provides greater efficiency by streamlining processes and creating a digital one-stop review of building permit applications.
In January 2023 , Council approved Resolution No. 22569 (N.C.S.) authorizing the Services Agreement r enewal (through December 2023) with Avolve for Year Two in the amount of $101,160. The amount of the Renewal for Year Three remains the same, $101,160, and covers services through December 2024. Year Three Renewal does not include assurance services, annual subscriptions, or SolarAPP+ implementation, estimated to be approximately $36,840. The funding source for the Renewal and Services Agreements is the Capital Improvement Program 9093, Permit Systems and Technology Upgrade, which is funded by a 5% technology fee collected as part of building permit fees.
BACKGROUND:
Under State Assembly Bill 2234, a public agency must require permits to be applied for, completed, and stored through a process on its internet website . Jurisdictions with a 2020 census population greater than 75,000 must comply no later than January 1, 2024. To fulfill this mandate, Page | 2
on June 22, 2021, the City entered into a Services Agreement with Avolve Software Inc ., the developer of OAS and ProjectDox software. Avolve's OAS system enables design professionals and architects to upload electronic plans for review. Once uploaded, City staff track, review and process plan checks electronically via ProjectDox, which helps manage the permit application and review process. In addition to reviewing plans, ProjectDox serves as a digital repository for approved plans to be maintained and used by city staff in the future.
Project Dox allows applicants to submit their application when it is convenient for them . The software perform s automated tasks and give s the applicant immediate feedback about missing information on forms, address validation, contractor license validation, the ability to pay fees and more. This greatly reduces the need to deliver applications and materials at the counter, simplifies file sharing, and cuts down staff time for data entry. The software complements the Permit Center’s one-stop-shop concept to create a virtual multi-departmental permitting center.
Avolve software is proven integrated with our current permitting software, TRAKiT. The software guides the applicant through each step of their participation in the review process with videos, in addition to written instruction. ProjectDox allows for better tracking across review cycle s by providing reviewer mark-up tools, prioritizing task assignments, automating version tracking, and processing data analytics. In addition, digital signatures can be maintained in the system during virtual meetings where plans are redlined for approval.
The Year Three ProjectDox ePlan Renewal does not account for any possible assurance services, program modification to implement state mandated SolarAPP+ and annual subscription Services.
Assurance Services hours can be used as needed , for ProjectDox configuration, training and any additional required changes. These hours are only invoiced upon use. Attachment 5 includes the Assurance Services Pricing Agreement.
Additionally, u nder State Senate Bill 379, local permitting jurisdictions , with the population greater than 50,000, are required to adopt SolarAPP+ or a similar program. SolarAPP+ is provided at no cost by the State of California but implementing it to our current ProjectDox system requires Avolve to complete the scope of work described in Attachment 4.
Annual Subscription Services are used for both the Avolve Learning Center Solution and access to modify reporting in Projectdox and OAS. The Avolve Learning Center Solution provides on - demand web-based training for staff. Staff can watch tutorials on specific items, learn at their own pace and level of expertise in the system. Access to modify reports will allow better tracking of internal procedures, performance measures for the annual budget and more data to utilize in the annual Permit Center update.
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:
Page | 3
This Renewal and corresponding Services Agreements furthers the City Council’s 2023 -2025 strategic goal s of Economic Development and Housing/Affordable Housing . The Avolve electronic plan review software will continue to offer a streamlined and efficient process for both residential and commercial permits which support s businesses to obtain important construction permits in a timely manner.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The Community Development, Public Works , and Fire Departments utilize ProjectDox for building permit plan review. Information Technology Division supports Project Dox and Trakit database integration.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund. Funding is available and appropriated in Capital Improvement Program 5800.9093. The Permit Systems & Technology Upgrade is funded by the 5% technology fee collected as part of building permit fees.

Service Level Commitment
Per Avolve's SaaS agreement, Avolve will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Avolve SAAS Solution available. The Annual Uptime Percentage has 2 components: The infrastructure uptime, which is dependent on Microsoft's SLA; Avolve software, which is 99%, excluding Planned Downtime. In the event that Avolve does not meet this uptime commit ment, Customer will be eligible to receive a service credit for 1% of the monthly fee for each one (1) hour of downtime during Customer’s normal business hours, up to 50% of Customer’s Pro -Rated Monthly Subscription Fee.
Definitions
• “Annual Uptime Percenta ge” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of 10 -minute periods during a calendar month in which the Avolve SAAS Solutions was Unavailable to Customer. • “Availability” means the ability to log into the Avolve SAAS Solution. • “Claim” means a claim for a service credit Customer submits by opening a support case with Avolve, on the basis that the hosted Avolve SaaS Product infrastructure has been Unavailable to Customer during a service month.
• “Pro-Rated Monthly Subscription Fee ” is calculated by dividing the Customer ’s applicable annual Avolve SAAS Solution subscription fee by twelve.
• “Unavailability” means the inability to log into the Avolve SAAS Solution.
Service Credit Requests
To receive a service credit, Customer must notify Avolve and submit a Claim within thirty (30) days from the incident that would be the basis for the claim . To be eligible, the Claim must include (a) the dates, times, description and duration of each incident experienced; and (b) the Customer’ s event logs or any other s ystem telemetry that document the errors and corroborate the claimed Unavailability (any confidential or sensitive information should be removed). Failure to provide a timely Claim, which includes all the required information, will disqualify the Claim and Customer from receiving a service credit . If Avolve validates the Claim, then Avolve will promptly issue the service credit.
Service Credit Provisions
Service credits are Customer ’s sole and exclusive remedy for any failure of Avolve to provide the Avolve SAAS Solution in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. Service credits shall be a credit toward future services only and do not entitle Customer to any refund or other payment from Avolve. Service credits may not be transferred, applied to another account, exchanged for, or converted to monetary amounts.
The maximum service credits awarded with respect to Claims the Customer submits in any calendar month shall not, under any circumstance, exceed in the aggregate 50% o f the Customer ’s Pro-Rated Monthly Subscription Fee for such month. Avolve will use all information reasonably available to it to validate Claims and make a good faith judgment on whether a service credit should be applied to the Claim.
SLA Exclusions
This SLA does not apply to any Availability or Unavailability of the Avolve SAAS Solution:
• During Planned Downtime;
• Caused by Unsupported Issues;
DocuSign Envelope ID: A0521726-78BA-40A0-8561-A201AB3A4F49
• Caused by factors outside of Avolve ’s control, including any force majeure event or interruption or impediment to Internet access or related problems;
• That result from Customer ’s equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software or other technology, including any third party hosting providers; • That resulted from Planne d Maintenance or ass ociated to beta, evaluation, non -production systems, and trial services accounts;
• That result from any actions or inactions from Customer or any third party, including employees, Users, agents, contractors, or vendors, or anyone gaining access to the hosted Avolve SaaS Product infrastructure by means of Customer’s (and its Users’) passwords or equipment; • Arising from Avolve’s suspension and termination of Customer’s right to use the hosted infrastructure in accordance with the Agreement; and
• That resul t from Avolve application software implementation errors caused by configuration, customization, installation, or human errors.
• Avolve, in its sole discretion, shall determine whether any of the foregoing exclusions are applicable to Customer. Avolve may, but is not obligated to, issue a Service Credit in Avolve’s sole discretion where Customer’s use of the Avolve SAAS Solution may be Unavailable due to factors other than expressly provided here in this SLA.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Statement of Work will focus on the Setup of a Production and Test Environment and the implementation of ProjectDox Best in Class workflows addressing the Customer’s needs with One (1) Best in Class plan review process.
The goal is to implement Online Application Submission (OAS), ProjectDox and an Advanced TRAKiT integration for ProjectDox utilizing web services, in a standardized, off the shelf manner. We will leverage Avolve best practices and built-in configuration and modifications features, to meet the most effective functionality required to achieve the highest business value for the customer (the "Project").
SCOPE OF WORK (MILESTONES)
Setup
Setup of a single environment for the applicable products is required prior to orientation and configuration onsite assessments being conducted. Project pre-planning, including draft project plan, communication plan etc. are associated to this stage of the project. Additional environments to be implemented will be factored into the project plan and based on the sales order/agreement.
• The date of acceptance for this milestone is the SaaS Renewal Date
Orientation and Configuration Requirements Session*
The Avolve PM will work with the City to perform an initial review of the application with the project team and gather configuration requirements to complete the design of the OAS application forms and Best in Class Building workflow process. The output of these sessions will be compiled into a requirements document referred to as the Configuration Requirements Document (CRD). This will include using standard templates and design to expedite the project whi le providing the best business value to the customer. Any design requirements identified during this phase outside of the design of the BIC workflow process and/or requiring development will be scoped and presented in a separate Statement of Work. Assurance services afforded the project may be leveraged for work identified as outside the scope of the project.
• Configuration Requirements Document
• Advanced Integration permitting system touchpoint discussion for TRAKiT includes:
o Project Creation – Required application data is pushed from the permitting system to the ProjectDox application using the Avolve provided REST API and configuration of the ProjectDox Windows Service Process. Required fields for project creation:
o Permit Number/Project Name (Key value)
o Description

Configuration & Integration *
Configuration of applicable software products, forms and the workflows based on the configuration requirements document findings. This includes the development of the integration work defined in this Statement of Work and confirmed during requirements discussions. Integration designs require the City systems to have or develop web services to allow for integration communication to the target systems from ProjectDox and/or OAS.
• Configured Working products and modules as specified in the Purchase Agreement/ Sales Order o Configured Working OAS and ProjectDox Applications
o Self-Service Application (SSA) Forms
▪ Provides up to 16 hours of services to configure the site for use with the delivered SSA forms and letters, perform a review of the application forms design and features, make minor modifications, and deploy into production.

▪ 1 Payment Processor to Authorize.NET
• Design the OAS application to interface with Customer’s payment processor to allow for online payments through OAS.
▪ 1 OAS Advanced Integration
• Defined application data to be pushed to the target permitting system API to allow for creation of the permit and triggering of the Project Creation process into ProjectDox.
Design requires API’s to be available for customer permitting system. Direct database calls from OAS to the target system are not supported.
▪ 1 OAS Base Validation
• Contractor Validation
o Base Validation allows for the validation for up to 2 data fields in the application form against the target system and confirmation of the data on the application form. (only validates) Design requires web services to be available for integration communication to the target system. Direct database calls from OAS to the target system are not supported.

▪ 1 Best In Class Workflow (Building)
▪ Advanced Integration to TRAKiT
User Acceptance Training (UAT)
The UAT phase uses an agile methodology consisting of two sprints of ten days each for testing that include the delivery of the designed process, validation of the design by the Customer and resolution to design issues by Avolve before starting the next sprint. The Avolve team will provide user acceptance training and guidance to the Customer on methods to test the designed process and sys tem to work towards acceptance. Customer will validate the system configuration, forms, emails, integration and document any identified issues in the RIT (Risks, Issues and Tasks) document provided by the Avolve project manager. Avolve will resolve any identified issues to allow the customer retest to gain acceptance.
UAT Training is conducted onsite allowing one day per process with the remainder of the UAT phase supported remotely. During this phase, the production environment will be setup. Upon acceptance of the design the Avolve team will coordinate the promotion of the code to the production environment.
• Completion of User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
• Implementation of the Production Environment
• Code Promotion from Test to Production
Training
Avolve education specialists will deliver the below courses to the Customers staff. The courses will train approximately 36 persons and will be delivered based on the project plan rollout. A maximum of 12 persons per course is enforced with exception of the Community Outreach (TES-OUT). This demonstration/lecture session is targeted for the design community and is intended to be conducted for larger audiences (25+) to educate and promote the new processes.
It is recommended that training sessions be organized with participants of similar technological abilities to allow for the most efficient delivery and retention of the materials. Additional training above and beyond the below may be added or additional training performed post go-live by leveraging the assurance services funds afforded the project.
• Delivery of classes for all products/modules as purchased

Launch/Project Close Out
Deployment of the workflow processes and post go live support for a period of 5 business days. Customer will be transitioned to support post the 5-business day go live period.
Assurance Services
The assurance services fund may be leveraged at any time during or post project completion to cover additional integration requirements, newly identified out of scope requirements, training, and software not included in this statement or work. The funds intent is to be used post go-live/launch of a process to keep the project management team engaged to assist with change management and user adoption assistance. Assurance services hours are billed on an hourly basis at a rate of $225.00 an hour. The use of hours requires a change order or an assurance services agreement that defines the work and has signatures of agreement for use by the Customer.
ACCEPTANCE PROCESS
There will be Key Deliverables, as identified in the Project Activities/Deliverables Payment Schedule which will be subject to acceptance by the Customer ("Acceptance"). Upon completion of each Key Deliverable, Avolve will request from the Customer a written response within five (5) business days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Purchase Agreement, all other Deliverables provided under this Statement of Work shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Customer upon delivery. If Customer does not approve, reasons for rejection must be clearly noted. Avolve will then work with the Customer to come to agreement on obtaining approval. The Customer shall be deemed to accept any such Key Deliverable which Customer does not accept or reject within such period. This acceptance will initiate the invoice of the of the applicable milestone.
AVOLVE PROJECT PLAN AND PROCESS
Promptly following execution of this Statement of Work, the parties shall meet to discuss the general project schedule, which will be generally organized around the standard Avolve project On-Boarding process. Within 2 weeks, the initial project plan will be created and sent to Customer. The Project Plan contains a schedule, a list of tasks in a schedule format, assignments of specific team members over specific times and communication status reporting processes. The Project Plan is a living document that will be reviewed throughout the term of this Agreement and may be adjusted as reasonably necessary, as agreed to from time to time by the parties.
PROJECT ASSUMPTIONS AND CAVEATS
1. This Project was scoped based upon purchase of ProjectDox Best In Class, understanding that the site will be hosted by the Avolve and configured per established Best-In-Class standards. This understanding forms the basis for Avolve’s pricing and the Deliverables to be provided under this Statement of Work. Any deviation from these requirements will require a change order and may increase cost or estimated time of Project completion.
2. Avolve will have full access to all Project team members from the customer as needed to complete the successful implementation and roll out of ProjectDox. This access may require the team members of the customer to dedicate specific time to specific detailed tasks within the Project Plan. Team member tasks will be more clearly defined during the kickoff and planning sessions and documented in the Project Plan.

3. Customer and its third parties and/or subcontractors will fulfill any hardware/software requirements, as identified to allow communication between Avolve Software and the Customer’s permitting system in a timely fashion to keep the Project Plan on schedule.
4. Customer and its third parties and/or subcontractors will fulfill the hardware requirements, as outlined in the System Implementation Guides (standard end user document(s) that accompany each version of the Software) in a timely fashion to keep the Project Plan on schedule.
5. This best approach package to implementation relies on partnership with the jurisdiction to achieve desired go-live and paperless goals. To that end, a not to exceed 516 hours have been allocated to services and training on this project. In the event scope expands or delays account for incremental hours to be required, a Change Request(s) will be issued for the incremental costs associated with delay or expansion. Should the customer cause or contribute to the delay of any Deliverable, Avolve may elect to revise the Project Plan accordingly to compensate for the delay and invoice for any applicable milestone payments to that point of the project.
6. All parties will reasonably prioritize their efforts to meet the Project Plan schedule to achieve a rapid roll out model. It is understood by all parties that multiple tasks may be in process at one time and Avolve may have more than one Professional Services team member working on the project at one time.
7. Client will provide adequate Project management for their own resources, and/or third parties, to collaborate with Avolve’s project manager. Client subject matter experts and applicable users will be accessible and available in a timely fashion and for adequate and reasonable durations. Avolve will make sure that scheduling of interviews and meetings are adequately in advance of these resource allocations.
8. Customizations/Extensions required may result in increased schedule and budget, but only if documented and approved within Assurance Services and/or a Change Request.
9. Avolve is planning to fully leverage ProjectDox as is, utilizing all built in configuration features to meet the business needs.
10. Any optional items chosen in the Purchase Agreement/Sales Order are not included here and would require a modification to this Statement of Work.
11. Customer understands that an ePlan Life Cycle implementation is a very significant digital transformation enterprise project that requires dedicated change management from the Customer’s staff. This will be key for the success of the Customer.
12. Work will not begin until an executed copy of all paperwork is complete. Work will begin at the earliest date at which Avolve resources and Customer resources are available or as otherwise agreed to.
13. Avolve and Customer agree to cooperate in good faith to complete the Services and Deliverables in a timely and efficient manner.
14. Recording of Avolve provided training or UAT (user acceptance testing) sessions is not permitted.
15. All training classes unless otherwise noted are limited to 12 persons maximum per class.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This Statement of Work will focus on a new self-service OAS process wherein applicants will be able to create a new SolarAPP+ application, submit and make a payment, and have a job card as well as a window card delivered to the applicant. The application will also be integrated with the City’s TRAKiT permit system. This is a new City obligation to meet the requirements of SB379 for SolarAPP+ applications. The City is looking for a process where a permit can be obtained in real time. There will be no workflow within ProjectDox, and this process will be solely in the OAS application.
SCOPE OF WORK
SolarAPP+ Project Implementation
A summary of the scope is below.
o Design of OAS SolarAPP+ Self-Service Application seen as Exhibit B Includes a method wherein certified the solar app contractor is validated before allowing to proceed with application submission.
o Configuration of OAS Payment using existing Authorize.net payment processor o Design of job card draft design seen as Exhibit C
TRAKiT permit number must be pulled and displayed on the job card. Job card is emailed to the applicant.
o Design of Window card design seen as Exhibit D
TRAKiT permit number must be pulled and displayed on the job card. Job card is emailed to the applicant.
o OAS to push information application information to TRAKiT. o OAS to pull TRAKiT permit number for use on job and windows cards. o OAS will display a static fee for payment or use of fee formulas in OAS. o Enable the upload of single files into OAS for small number of files.
Integration between OAS and TRAKiT requires the TRAKiT permitting system to have the required API’s/ web services to facilitate communication. If APIs are not currently present and functional, the Customer will need to provide the resources to develop and test any new required services and Avolve will assist in testing. Any additional integration points other than what is described below would be considered additional scope and would require additional professional services (assurance services) to cover design, development, and testing. Direct database calls are not supported. x TRAKiT permitting system integration includes:
o SolarAPP+ Information Push – OAS to push the SolarAPP+ application information to TRAKiT. o Leverage existing Address and Owner lookup code designed by Avolve and used by the City of Salinas from other applications.
o Permit Number Collection – OAS to call TRAKiT to retrieve the permit number prior to entering on job and window cards.

ACCEPTANCE PROCESS
There will be Key Deliverables within the identified phases of the project as identified in the Project Activities/Deliverables Schedule which will be subject to acceptance by the Customer ("Acceptance"). Upon completion of each Key Deliverable, Avolve will request from the Customer a written response/acceptance within five (5) business days after receipt thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in the Purchase Agreement, all other Deliverables provided under this Statement of Work shall be deemed to have been accepted by the Customer upon delivery. If Customer does not approve, reasons for rejection must be clearly noted. Avolve will then work with the Customer to come to agreement on obtaining approval. The Customer shall be deemed to accept any such Key Deliverable which the Customer does not accept or reject within such period. This acceptance will initiate the invoice of the milestone, if applicable.
PROJECT ASSUMPTIONS AND CAVEATS
1. Avolve will have full access to all Project team members from the customer, as needed, to complete the successful implementation and roll out of ProjectDox. This access may require the team members of the customer to dedicate specific time to specific detailed tasks within the Project Plan. Team member tasks will be more clearly defined during the kickoff and planning sessions and documented in the Project Plan.
2. Customer and its third parties and/or subcontractors will fulfill any hardware/software requirements, including the purchase/development of APIs (Application Program Interface) for integration to allow for communication between Avolve Software and the Customer’s permitting system in a timely fashion to keep the Project Plan on schedule.
3. Delays/schedule Changes: This best approach package to implementation relies on partnership with the jurisdiction to achieve desired go-live goals. Should either party cause or contribute to the delay of any deliverable/milestone relative to the agreed upon Project Plan schedule, the other party may issue a Change Request(s)/Work Order s to denote said change of schedule and any reasonable incremental costs incurred by such party arising from the delay. Once approved by the parties, the Change Request/Work Order shall be signed by both Avolve and Customer, with issuance of payment for any additional costs as noted within said Change Request/Work Order to occur as set forth in such Change Request/Work Order.ௗௗ
4. Scope Changes: Should the Customer request a change in the scope of work for the project, Avolve shall issue a Change Request(s)/Work Order to denote the change in scope (and any associated impacts to schedule or change to project fees). Once approved by the parties, the Change Request/Work Order shall be signed by both Avolve and Customer, with issuance of payment or credit (as applicable) for any change to project fees as noted within said Change Request/Work Order to occur as set forth in such Change Request/Work Order.ௗௗ
5. All parties will reasonably prioritize their efforts to meet the Project Plan schedule in order to achieve a rapid roll out model. It is understood by all parties that multiple tasks may be in process at one time and Avolve may have more than one Professional Services team member working on the project at one time.
6. Customer will assign a project manager for management of their own resources, and/or third parties retained by Customer, to collaborate with Avolve’s project manager. Customer subject matter experts and applicable users will be accessible and available in a timely fashion, and for adequate and reasonable durations as set forth in the Project Plan. Avolve and Customer will make sure that scheduling of meetings is made at least 5 days in advance of these resource allocations.
7. Any optional items chosen in the Purchase Agreement/Sales Order are not included here and would require a modification to this Statement of Work.
10242022 Page 4 of 10
8. Customer understands that an ePlan Life Cycle implementation is a significant digital transformation enterprise project that requires dedicated change management from the Customer’s staff. This will be key for the success of the Customer.
9. Work will not begin until an executed copy of all paperwork is complete. Work will begin at the earliest date at which Avolve resources and Customer resources are available or as otherwise agreed to.
10. Avolve and Customer agree to cooperate in good faith to complete the Services and Deliverables in a timely and efficient manner.
11. Recording of Avolve provided training or UAT (user acceptance testing) sessions is not permitted unless noted within the Statement of Work.
12. In the event the Customer delays the progression of the implementation and Avolve Software resources are placed on-hold and/or removed from the project, all hours that have been completed to that point will be invoiced. Avolve Software will not guarantee Project Managers and/or Technical Avolve resources will be available to re-deploy immediately upon resolution of the issue. Avolve requires 4 weeks’ notice of intent to restart the project, to assess available resources to determine the next available timeframe and communicate any restart costs to restart the project.
CHANGE CONTROL PROCESS
The “Change Control Process” is that process which shall govern changes to the scope of the Project during the life of the Project. The Change Control Process will apply to new components and to enhancements of existing components. The Change Control Process will commence at the start of the Project and will continue throughout the Project's duration.
Additional procedures and responsibilities may be outlined by the Project Manager identified on the signature page to the Agreement and will be included in the Project Plan if mutually accepted.
Under the Change Control Process, a written “Change Request” (attached) will be the vehicle for communicating any desired changes to the Project. It will describe the proposed change; the reason for the change and the effect the change may have on the Project. The Project Manager of the requesting party will submit a written Change Request to the Project Manager for the other parties.
All parties must sign the approval portion of the Change Request to authorize the implementation of any change that affects the Project’s scope, schedule, or price. Furthermore, any such changes that affect the scope of this SOW, schedule or price will require an amendment to the SOW and/or any other part of the Purchase Agreement.

FROM: DAVID JACOBS P.E., L.S., PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
BY: JONATHAN HERNANDEZ, JUNIOR ENGINEER
THRU: ADRIANA ROBLES, P.E., CITY ENGINEER
TITLE: EAST MARKET STREET CYCLE TRACK QUICK BUILD
PROJECT
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a Resolution:
1) Approving the plans and specifications for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project; and
2) Awarding a contract to Coastal Paving & Excavating for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project in the amount of $204,700.00.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On October 10, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 22 812 (Attachment 1) accepting grant funds from the Transportation Agency of Monterey County (TAMC) for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project and authorizing the Public Works Director to execute agreements related to the TAMC grant. The project will improve the safety, and comfort of the existing bike lane facilities on East Market Street . Project plans and specifications are complete, and the City initiated a request for proposals amongst the contractors under the Master Service Agreement for On -Call Class A Contractor Services on September 26, 2023 . The City received only one proposal for the amount of $204,700.00 from Coastal Paving & Excavating.
BACKGROUND:
On September 1 4, 2021, the City Council adopted the City of Salinas Vision Zero Action Plan (Action Plan) through Resolution No. 22184. The Action Plan was developed through a data - driven process. City staff compiled 10 years of collision data from 2009 to 2018 and created geographic information systems (GIS) maps to display and filter collision data to help illustrate spatial patterns and trends. This data-driven analysis helped reveal collision trends and patterns in collision type, driver factors, roadway features, vehicle factors or environmental conditions.
Page | 2
Trends in the data help reveal emphasis areas where a higher frequency of collisions can be evaluated to achieve the goal of zero fatalities and serious injuries most effectively.
One of the emphasis areas the Action Plan focused on were corridors with high rates of bicycle involved collisions. The p lan identified East Market Street as the corridor with the most bicycle involved collisions in the City over the 10-year period. In 2016, the City proposed floating parking protected bike lanes and was awarded Active Transportation Program and Regional Sur face Transportation Program grant funds to implement the proposed concept. The project was accepted by Council on February 6, 2018. Once constructed the City found that the concept did not work as expected. The problem with the floating parking protected b ike lanes, which only have painted buffers, is that many drivers park their vehicles encroaching into or outright blocking the bike lane.
Despite the effort of the Safe Routes to School Project, East Market Street still lacks protected bicycle facilities to enable students to ride to school. Considering this, City staff considered East Market Street as a good candidate for improvement in the 2023 Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) and applied for grant funding to mitigate the problem.
The City was awarded an RSTP grant by TAMC in the amount of $326,000.00 for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project. On October 10, 2023, City Council approved Resolution No. 22812 accepting grant funds.
The East Market Street Cy cle Track Quick Build Project consists of constructing quick -build concrete median cycle tracks along East Market Street between Eucalyptus Drive and Williams Road. This countermeasure will install a physical barrier between the parking aisle and the bicycle facility which aims to eliminate the ability of vehicles to encroach into the bike lanes. The raised medians will serve as a buffer between on-street parking and the bike lanes. The project’s desired outcome is to improve the safety, and comfort of the existing bike lane facilities on East Market Street by upgrading the painted buffer to a physical concrete median. City staff developed and completed the plans, specifications, and estimate s (PS&E) documents for the project. Staff recommends City Council approve Plans and Specifications for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project.
The City initiated a request for proposal process amongst the contractors under the Master Services Agreement for On -Call Class A Contractor Service on September 26, 2023. Coastal Paving & Excavating was the only responsive bidder with a total bid price of $204,700.00. The bid tab is included to this report as Attachment 2. The City has verified that Coastal Paving & Excavating has an active Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) registration, contractor’s license, and City of Salinas business license. Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Resolution awarding the contract to Coastal Paving & Excavating for the East Market Street Cycle Track Quick Build Project, in the amount of $204,700.00.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
The City of Salinas has determined that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines (Section 15301, Class 1(c)) because the actions consist of minor alterations of an existing City street. A notice of exemption has been prepared and will be filed at the County Clerk’s office.

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
9 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF STATEMENT OF
COMPLIANCE
This statement of compliance meets needs of the state and federal payroll requirements to pay fringe benefits in addition to payment of the minimum rates. The contractor's obligation to pay fringe benefits may be met by payment of the fringes to the various preapproved plans, funds, or programs or by making these payments directly to the employees as part of their weekly wage payments.
The contractor must show on the face of his or her payroll all monies paid to the employees whether as basic rates or total hourly wage amount in lieu of fringes. The contractor shall report in the statement of compliance that he or she is paying to others fringes required by the contract and not paid directly to the employees in lieu of fringes.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Contractors required to pay Federal Wage Rates:
Such a contractor shall check paragraph 2(a) of the statement to indicate that the wage rates for laborers or mechanics contained in the payroll are not less than the applicable wage rates specified in the applicable wage determination incorporated into the contract.
Contractors required to pay the State Prevailing Wage Rates as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations:
Such a contractor shall check paragraph 2(b) of the statement to indicate that the wage rates for laborers or mechanics contained in the payroll are not less than the applicable wage rates determined by the Director of Industrial Relations for the county or counties in which the work is performed.
Contractor who pay all required fringe benefits:
A contractor who pays fringe benefits to approved plans, funds, or programs in amounts not less than were determined in the applicable wage decisions shall continue to show on the face of his or her payroll the basic hourly rate and overtime rate paid to his or her employees, just as he or she has always done. Such a contractor shall check paragraph 4(a) of the statement to indicate that he or she is also paying approved plans, funds, or programs within the times required for the receipt of those sums, not less than the amount predetermined as fringe benefits for each craft. Any exception shall be noted in Section 4(c).
Contractors who pay no fringe benefits:
A contractor who does not pay fringe benefits to an approved plan shall pay a like amount to the employee. This payment can be reported by inserting in the straight time hourly rate column of his or her payroll an amount not less than the predetermined rate for each classification plus the amount of fringe benefits determined for each classification in the applicable wage decision. Inasmuch as it is not necessary to pay time and a half on wages paid in lieu of fringes, the overtime rate shall be not less than one and one-half the basic predetermined rate, plus the required cash in lieu of fringes at the straight time rate. To simplify computation of overtime, it is suggested that the straight time basic rate and payment in lieu of fringes be separately stated in the hourly rate column. In addition, the contractor shall check paragraph 4(b) of the statement to indicate that he or she is paying fringe benefits directly to his or her employees. Any exceptions shall be noted in Section 4(c).
Use of Section 4(c), Exceptions:
Any contractor who is making payment to approved plans, funds, or programs in amounts less than the wage determination required is obligated to pay the deficiency directly to the employees as wages in lieu of fringes. Any exceptions to Section 4(a) and 4(b), whichever the contractor may check, shall be entered in Section 4(c). Enter in the Exception column the craft, and enter in the Explanation column the hourly amount paid the employees as wages in lieu of fringes, and the hourly amount paid to plans, funds, or programs as fringes (see United States Code, Title 18, Section 1001 and Title 31, Section 3729).

SECTION 3 AWARD AND EXECUTION OF CONTRACT
The Contractor’s attention is directed to the Provisions in Section 3, “Award and Execution of Contract”, of the City of Salinas Standard Specifications and Section 2 “Proposal Requirements and Conditions” of these Special Provisions for the requirements and conditions concerning award and execution of the Contract.
20 If the Agency awards the contract, the award is made to the lowest responsible bidder. The City reserves the right to reject all proposals, depending on available funding.
The Contract shall be executed by the successful Bidder and shall be returned, together with the Contract bonds, to the Agency so that it is received within 15 working days, not including Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays, after the Bidder has received the Contract for execution. Failure to do so shall be just cause for forfeiture of the proposal guaranty. The executed Contract documents shall be delivered to the following address: City of Salinas, Attn: City Clerk, 200 Lincoln Avenue, Salinas CA 93901.
A "Local Agency Bidder DBE Commitment (Construction Contract), Exhibit 15-G" form is included in the proposal to be executed by the successful bidder. The purpose of the form is to collect data required under 49 CFR 26. Even if no DBE participation will be reported, the successful bidder must execute and return the form.
The successful bidder's "Local Agency Bidder DBE Commitment (Construction Contract), Exhibit 15-G" form should include the names, addresses and phone numbers of DBE firms that will participate, with a complete description of work or supplies to be provided by each, and the dollar value of each DBE transaction. When 100 percent of a contract item of work is not to be performed or furnished by a DBE, a description of the exact portion of that work to be performed or furnished by that DBE should be included in the DBE information, including the planned location of that work. A successful bidder certified as a DBE should describe the work it has committed to performing with its own forces as well as any other work that it has committed to be performed by DBE subcontractors, suppliers and trucking companies.
The successful bidder is encouraged to provide written confirmation from each DBE that the DBE is participating in the contract. A copy of a DBE's quote will serve as written confirmation that the DBE is participating in the contract. If a DBE is participating as a joint venture partner, the successful bidder is encouraged to submit a copy of the joint venture agreement.
The “Local Agency Bidder DBE Commitment (Construction Contract), Exhibit 15-G” form shall be completed and returned to the City within 5 working days after bid opening.
Certificates of Insurance shall be furnished by the Contractor and shall be returned with the signed Contract and Contract bonds within 15 calendar days after receipt. The Notice to Proceed with the work shall not be issued by the City Clerk’s office until all such documents are submitted.
The Contractor shall have 30 calendar days immediately following award of Contract (not notice to proceed) to furnish materials submittals.
In determining the lowest “responsible” Bidder, consideration shall be given to the general competency of Contractor in regard to the work covered by the Proposal. To this end each Proposal shall be supported by the “Bidder’s Statement of Financial Responsibility, Technical Ability, and Experience” on the form(s) found herein. Failure of the Bidder to provide requested information in a complete and accurate manner shall be considered non-responsive resulting in rejection of the Bid. Additionally, the City of Salinas reserves the right to disqualify or refuse to consider a Proposal if a Bidder is in default for any of the following reasons:
21 a) Lack of competency and adequate machinery, plant, and other equipment, as revealed by the documents requested.
b) Uncompleted work, which in the judgment of the City Engineer, might hinder or prevent the prompt completion of additional work if awarded.
c) Failure to comply with any regulation of the City of Salinas; and d) Default under previous Contracts.
If awarded, this Contract shall be awarded to the responsible Bidder submitting the lowest Bid who meets the financial and technical requirements. The City of Salinas reserves the right to withhold award of Bid for 120 calendar days from the Bid opening date.

Arrangements shall include, but not be limited to, entering into agreements with property owners and obtaining necessary permits, licenses, and environmental clearances. Before disposing of any material outside the highway right of way, the Contractor shall furnish to the Engineer satisfactory evidence that the Contractor has entered into agreements with the property owners of the site involved and has obtained the permits, licenses and clearances.
When any material is to be disposed of outside the highway right of way, and the City has not made arrangements for disposal of the material, the Contractor shall first obtain written authorization from the property owner on whose property the disposal is to be made and the Contractor shall file with the Engineer the authorization or a certified copy thereof together with a written release from the property owner absolving the City from any and all responsibility in connection with the disposal of material on the property. Before any material is disposed of on the property, the Contractor shall obtain written permission from the Engineer to dispose of the material at the location designated in the authorization.
When material is disposed of as above provided and the disposal location is visible from a highway, the Contractor shall dispose of the material in a neat and uniform manner to the satisfaction of the Engineer.
Where the City has made arrangements with owners of land in the vicinity of a project for the disposal of materials on an owner's property, the arrangements are made solely for the purpose of providing all bidders an equal opportunity to dispose of the materials on the property. Bidders or Contractors may, upon written request, inspect the documents evidencing the arrangements between property owners and the City. The Contractor may, if the Contractor so elects, exercise any rights that have been obtained, which may be exercised by a Contractor under the arrangements, subject to and upon the conditions hereinafter set forth.
36 Such arrangements are not a part of the contract and it is expressly understood and agreed that the City assumes no responsibility to the bidder or Contractor whatsoever in respect to the arrangements made with the property owner to dispose of materials thereon and that the Contractor shall assume all risks in connection with the use of the property, the terms upon which the use shall be made, and there is no warranty or guaranty, either express or implied, as to the quantity or types of materials that can be disposed of on the property.
In those instances, in which the City has compiled "Materials Information" as referred to in Section 2-1.03, "Examination of Plans, Specifications, Contract, and Site of Work," the compilation will include the documents setting forth the arrangement made with some of the property owners for the disposal of material on those owners' properties. The inclusion of the documents therein shall not in any respect operate as a waiver of any of the provisions in this Section 7-1.01 concerning the documents. • The bidder or Contractor is cautioned to make such independent investigation and examination as the Contractor deems necessary to be satisfied as to the quantity and types of materials which may be disposed of on the property and the rights, duties and obligations acquired or undertaken under the arrangement with the property owner.
• Notwithstanding that the Contractor may elect to dispose of materials on any such property owner's property, no material may be disposed of on that property unless the Contractor has first either:
(1) Executed a document that will guarantee to hold the owner harmless from all claims for injury to persons or damage to property resulting from the Contractor's operations on the property owner's premises and also agree to conform to all other provisions set forth in the arrangement made between the City and the property owner. The document will be prepared by the Engineer for execution by the Contractor, or
(2) Entered into an agreement with the owner of the disposal site on any terms mutually agreeable to the owner and the Contractor; provided that the Contractor shall furnish to the Engineer a release, in a form satisfactory to the Engineer, executed by the owner, relieving the City of any and all obligations under the City's arrangement with the owner. • If the Contractor elects to dispose of material under (1), the use of the site shall be subject to the terms, conditions and limitations of the arrangement made between the property owner and the City and the Contractor shall pay those charges that are provided for in the arrangement made by the City with the property owner, and deductions will be made from any moneys due or that may become due the Contractor under the contract sufficient to cover the charges for the material disposed of. • If the Contractor elects to dispose of material under (2), the Contractor shall pay those charges that are provided for in the agreement between the owner and the Contractor and deductions will not be made from any moneys due or that may become due the Contractor under the contract to cover the charges. • Before acceptance of the contract, the Engineer may require the Contractor to submit written evidence that the owner of the disposal site is satisfied that the Contractor has satisfactorily complied with the provisions of either - (1), the arrangement between the City and the owner, or (2), the agreement between the owner and the Contractor, as the case may be.
• Full compensation for all costs involved in disposing of materials as specified in this Section 7-1.01, including all costs of hauling, shall be considered as included in the price paid for the various contract items of work and no additional compensation will be allowed, therefore.

47 The foregoing procedure does not preclude informal reviews of shop drawings prepared by the fabricator for reinforcing steel, miscellaneous iron, structural steel, by the Structural Engineer or for mechanical and electrical components by the Mechanical and Electrical Engineer. No distribution of shop drawings and setting drawings, except as noted, shall be permitted.
By approving and submitting shop drawings and samples, the Contractor thereby represents that he/she has determined and verified all field measurements, field construction criteria, materials, catalog number and similar data, or shall do so, and that he/she has checked and coordinated each shop drawing and sample with the requirements of the work and the Contract Documents.
Allow two weeks minimum for review. Allow additional time if processing must be delayed to permit coordination with subsequent submittals. Allow one week for reprocessing each submittal.
No extension of Contract time will be authorized because of failure to transmit submittals sufficiently in advance of the work to permit processing.
The City Engineer shall review and approve any shop drawings and samples with reasonable promptness so as to cause no delay, but only for conformance with the design concept of the project and with the information given in the Contract Documents. The City Engineer's approval of a separate item shall not indicate approval of an assembly in which the item functions.
The Contractor shall make any corrections required by the City Engineer and shall resubmit the required number of corrected copies of shop drawings or new samples until approved. The Contractor shall direct specific attention in writing or on resubmitted shop drawings to revisions other than the correction requested by the City Engineer on previous submissions. Corrected shop drawings shall be resubmitted in the same manner as called for above.
The City Engineer's approval of shop drawings or samples shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for any deviation from the requirements of the Contract Documents unless the Contractor has specifically informed the City Engineer in writing of such deviation at the time of the submission, and the City Engineer has given written approval to the specified deviation; nor shall the City Engineer's approval relieve the Contractor form responsibility for errors or omissions in the shop drawings or samples.
No portion of the work requiring a shop drawing submission, including ordering of materials, shall be commenced until the submission has been approved by the City Engineer. All such portions of the work shall be in accordance with approved shop drawings and samples. Any work placed without submittals being made shall be replaced by Contractor at his/her own expense, if directed by the City Engineer.

The Contractor shall provide and maintain an up-to-date complete "RECORD DRAWING" record on a separate set of construction Plans which shall show every change from the original drawings and
48 Specifications. Prints for this purpose may be obtained from the City Engineer. This set of drawings is to be kept on the site and to be used only as a record set.
These Plans shall also serve as work progress sheets, and the Contractor shall make neat and legible annotations thereon daily as the work proceeds, showing the work as actually installed. These drawings shall be available at all times for inspection and to be kept in a location designated by the City Engineer.
At the project pre-construction meeting, the City Engineer shall furnish two sets of the Plans and Specifications to the Contractor and an additional set for each of the listed Subcontractors. If additional sets are requested, the Contractor will be charged for any extra sets requiring reproduction and binding at the rate specified in the Notice to Bidders.
On or before the date of final inspection, the Contractor shall deliver the corrected and completed "RECORD DRAWING" to the City Engineer. Contractor shall furnish in duplicate two binders of all manufacturers' literature brochures, manuals, parts list, instructions, etc., for all electrical and mechanical equipment as required to be furnished and installed by the Contractor. Submissions of this literature in a haphazard method will not be acceptable. Failure to submit "RECORD DRAWING" shall be cause to withhold final payment and not accept the project.
Record Plans are required under Section 10-1.12 and may be recorded and submitted on CD or DVD.
The “Record Drawing” shall be accurate and up to date with approval of the City Engineer before each progress payment shall be made.
10-1.13 WATERING

Prior to starting such work, the Contractor shall verify with the City Engineer that such authority has been granted.
The Contractor will confine his/her operations within the limitations of construction easements or limits as shown on the drawings. If the Contractor's operations result in damage to plantings or any other privately- owned facility outside the limitations of the construction easements or public right-of-way, the Contractor shall, at his/her expense, repair such damage or indemnify the owner of the damaged property.
If the Contractor negotiates with property owner for use of land for construction operations outside the limits of the construction easements, he/she shall do so at his/her own risk and the City of Salinas shall assume no liability for such use of private property. All agreements between the Contractor and private property owner shall be in writing. The Contractor shall commence no work outside the construction easements until copies of such agreements are furnished to the City Engineer.

The SWPPP must list Best Management Practices (BMPs) the discharger will use to protect storm water runoff and the placement of those BMPs. Additionally, the SWPPP must contain a visual monitoring program and a chemical monitoring program for “non-visible” pollutants to be implemented if there is a failure of BMPs. Section A of the CGP describes the elements that must be contained in a SWPPP.
The requirements of the CGP are intended to be implemented on a year-round basis, not just during the part of the year when there is a high probability of a precipitation event which results in storm water runoff.
The permit should be implemented at the appropriate level and in a proactive manner during all seasons while construction is on-going. The City of Salinas NPDES permit also has additional requirements applicable to construction projects of any size.

The SWPPP should contain a site map(s) which shows the construction site perimeter, existing and proposed buildings, lots, roadways, storm water collection and discharge points, general topography both before and after construction, and drainage patterns across the project. The plans must list Best Management Practices (BMPs) the discharger will use to protect storm water runoff and the placement of those BMPs.
Additionally, the SWPPP must contain a visual monitoring program and a chemical monitoring program for “non-visible” pollutants to be implemented if there is a failure of BMPs. Section A of the CGP describes the elements that must be contained in a SWPPP.
The SWPPP shall incorporate control measures in the following categories:
1. Soil stabilization practices
2. Sediment erosion control practices
3. Sediment tracking control practices
4. Wind erosion control practices
5. Non-storm water management, materials management, and waste management and disposal control practices.
The Contractor shall consider these objectives and their minimum requirements for each of the above categories as presented in these Manuals. When minimum requirements are listed for any category, the Contractor shall incorporate all of the listed minimum controls required into the SWPPP and implement these on the project site in order to meet the stormwater pollution control objectives for the category. In addition, the Contractor shall consider any other additional control measures presented in the Handbook as necessary to meet the objectives of the plans and shall incorporate them into the SWPPP for implementation on the project site.
Permanent post-construction stormwater control measures, also called structural BMPs, shall be indicated in the project Drainage Plans and incorporated into the project site as required per the City’s NPDES Permit (Post-construction requirements). The Contractor shall maintain and protect the post-construction stormwater control measures throughout the duration of the project and shall restore these to the specifications shown on the Plans prior to acceptance of the project.
Within 30 calendar days after the approval of the Contract, the Contractor shall submit two (2) copies of the SWPPP to the City Engineer. The Contractor shall allow 7 calendar days for the City Engineer to review the plans. If revisions are required, as determined by the City Engineer, the Contractor shall revise and resubmit the SWPPP and/or SWCP within 7 calendar days of receipt of the City Engineer’s comments
59 and shall allow 7 calendar days for the City Engineer to review the revisions. Upon the City Engineer’s approval of the SWPPP, three (3) additional copies of the plans incorporating the required changes shall be submitted to the City Engineer. Minor changes or clarifications to the initial submittal may be made and attached as amendments to the SWPPP. In order to allow construction activities to proceed, the City Engineer may conditionally approve the SWPPP while minor revisions or amendments are being completed.
The Contractor shall amend the SWPPP, graphically and in narrative form, whenever there is a change in construction activities or operations which may affect the discharge of significant quantities of pollutants to surface waters, ground waters, municipal storm drain systems, or when deemed necessary by the City Engineer. The SWPPPP shall also be amended if the plan has not achieved the objective of reducing pollutants in storm water discharges. Amendments shall show additional control measures or revised operations, including those in areas not shown in the initially approved SWPPP, which are required on the project to control water pollution effectively. Amendments to the SWPPP shall be submitted for review and approval by the City Engineer in the same manner specified for the initially approved SWPPP.
Amendments shall be dated and attached to the on-site SWCP document. The Contractor shall keep a copy of the SWPPP, together with updates, revisions, and amendments in a binder at the project site.
SWPPP IMPLEMENTATION
Upon approval of the SWPPP, the Contractor shall be responsible throughout the duration of the project for installing, constructing, inspecting, and maintaining the control measures included in the SWPPP and any amendments thereto and for removing and disposing of temporary control measures. This plan must be in place prior to and maintained during construction operations in accordance with City of Salinas Municipal Code Chapter 29 “Stormwater Management and Discharge Control” and City of Salinas Standard Specifications Section 13 “Design Standards for Erosion and Sediment Control”.
Unless otherwise directed by the City Engineer or specified in these Special Provisions, the Contractor’s responsibility for SWPPP implementation shall continue throughout any temporary suspension of work ordered in accordance with the Provisions in Section 8-1.06, “Suspensions”, of the State Standard Specifications. Requirements for installation, construction, inspection, maintenance, removal and disposal of control measures shall be specified in the SWPPP and are included in these Special Provisions. Soil stabilization practices and sediment control measures, including minimum requirements, shall be provided.
The requirements of the CGP and the project SWPPP are intended to be implemented on a year-round basis, not just during the part of the year when there is a high probability of a precipitation event which results in storm water runoff. The CGP permit shall be implemented at the appropriate level and in a proactive manner during all seasons until the project is deemed complete. Weekly inspections are required throughout the life of the project. Completed QSP inspection forms shall be submitted to the City Engineer via [email protected] on a weekly basis.
Additional information on the CGP can be found at the State Water Resources Control Board website:
http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/water_issues/programs/stormwater/construction.shtml Per the City’s Municipal Storm Water Permit, Contractor shall employ erosion prevention and sediment control, and good housekeeping construction site management practices that result in the following outcomes on all construction sites regardless of size:
• Protection of storm drain inlets and/or adjacent waterways at all times from illicit discharges of sediment, construction debris, litter or waste
60 • No release of hazardous substances, such as oils, paints, thinners, fuels, concrete washout and other chemicals; if such a spill occurs that may threaten local water quality, Contractor must call 911 immediately and notify City Public Works staff at 831-758-7233 • Minimization of site disturbance to that portion undergoing construction only • No deposit of mud, soil, sediment, concrete washout, trash, or other similar construction-related material or waste into public rights of way and private streets, and into the City’s storm drain system and related natural resources, either by direct deposit, dropping, discharge, erosion, or tracking by construction vehicles. Any such discharges shall be cleaned up at the end of the current work shift in which the deposit occurred or at the end of the current workday, whichever comes first. • No runoff from graded areas or stockpile areas containing sediments. Stockpiles shall be adequately covered to avoid contact with rainfall and prevent soil movement by water and/or wind. Runoff containing sediments shall be captured in secondary containment structures and either treated to remove sediments prior to discharge or infiltrated on site.
• No exposure of graded areas and stockpile areas to storm water run-on. Run-on shall be controlled by diversion structures such as dikes, excavated swales, berms, or a combination of the two.
Soil stabilization of graded areas shall be in place in any portion of the site where the construction activities have temporarily (not scheduled to be re-disturbed for at least 14 days) or permanently ceased. • All hard-surfaced areas are to be swept regularly and kept free of dirt and construction debris such that the surface of the pavement is clearly visible at all locations.
Activities to be performed by Contractor include, but are not limited to:
Contractor shall maintain a copy of the SWPPP onsite at all times; the SWPPP shall be up-to-date and include a copy of all QSP inspections.
Contractor shall maintain the temporary and permanent vegetation (if any), erosion and sediment control measures, and other protective measures in good and effective operating condition by performing routine inspections to determine condition and effectiveness, by restoration of destroyed vegetative cover, and by repair of erosion and sediment control measures and other protective measures.
Contractor shall inspect the following areas at least once every seven (7) calendar days and within 24 hours prior to and 48 hours after any predicted storm:
o Disturbed areas of the construction site,
o Areas that have not been finally stabilized,
o Areas used for storage of materials exposed to precipitation, and o Areas where vehicles exit the site
Where sites have been finally stabilized, such inspection shall be conducted at least once every month. Areas noted above shall be inspected for evidence of, or potential for o Erosion, or
o Sediments entering waterways or the storm drainage system, or o Pollutants entering waterways or the storm drainage system.
61 Erosion and sediment control measures shall be observed and maintained to ensure that they are operating correctly. Discharge locations or points shall be inspected to ascertain whether erosion control measures are effective in preventing sedimentation and subsequent degradation of receiving water quality in violation of receiving water quality standards. Locations where vehicles exit the site shall be inspected for evidence of offsite sediment tracking. Deficiencies observed during inspections shall be noted and rectified before the end of the workday.
Implementation of soil stabilization practices and sediment control measures for soil-disturbed areas of the project site shall be completed, except as provided for below, no later than 20 calendar days prior to the beginning of the rainy season (Oct 1) or upon start of applicable construction activities for projects which begin either during or within 20 calendar days of the rainy season.
Throughout the rainy season, Oct 1 – Apr 30, the active, soil-disturbed area of the project site shall be no more than 2.5 acres. The City Engineer may approve, on a case-by-case basis, expansions of the active, soil-disturbed area limit. The Contractor shall demonstrate the ability and preparedness to fully deploy soil stabilization practices and sediment control measures to protect soil-disturbed areas of the project site before the onset of precipitation. The Contractor shall maintain a quantity of soil stabilization and sediment control materials on site equal to 125% of that sufficient to protect unprotected, soil-disturbed areas on the project site and shall maintain a detailed plan for the mobilization of sufficient labor and equipment to fully deploy control measures required to protect unprotected, soil-disturbed areas on the project site prior to the onset of precipitation. The Contractor shall include a current inventory of control measure materials and the detailed mobilization plan as part of the SWPPP.
Throughout the rainy season, soil-disturbed areas of the project site shall be considered to be nonactive whenever soil-disturbing activities are expected to be discontinued for a period of 20 or more calendar days, and the areas are fully protected. Areas that shall become inactive either during the rainy season or within 20 calendar days thereof shall be fully protected with soil stabilization practices, and sediment control measures within 10 calendar days of the discontinuance of soil disturbing activities or prior to the onset of precipitation, whichever is first to occur.
Throughout the rainy season, active soil-disturbed areas of the project site shall be fully protected at the end of each day with soil stabilization practices and sediment control measures unless precipitation is not predicted through the following workday. Stockpiles, however, must be covered by the end of each workday during the rainy season. The Contractor shall monitor the weather forecast on a daily basis. The National Weather Service forecast shall be used, or an alternative weather forecast proposed by the Contractor may be used if approved by the City Engineer. If precipitation is predicted prior to the end of the following workday, construction scheduling shall be modified, as required, and the Contractor shall deploy functioning control measures prior to the onset of the precipitation.
The Contractor shall implement, year-round and throughout the duration of the project, control measures included in the SWPPP for sediment tracking, wind erosion, non-storm water management, materials management, and waste management and disposal. This specific project shall require that Contractor prevent any concrete, cement slurry, soil or other material to go into the Stormwater Drainage system. After pouring concrete for foundation and trench, Drum truck shoot and other concrete instruments shall be cleaned in a designated concrete washout area per Caltrans Construction BMP WM-08 and the washout contents disposed of in a proper location.
The City Engineer may order the suspension of construction operations creating water pollution if the Contractor fails to conform to the requirements of this Section as determined by the City Engineer.
The Contractor shall become fully informed of, and comply with the applicable Federal, State, City of Salinas, local regulations that govern the Contractor’s operations and storm water discharges from both the
62 project site and areas of disturbance outside the project limits during construction. Unless arrangements for disturbance of areas outside the project limits are made by the City Engineer and made part of the Contract, it is expressly agreed that the City of Salinas assumes no responsibility to the Contractor or property owner whatsoever with respect to any arrangements made between the Contractor and the property owner to allow disturbance of areas outside the project limits.
CONSTRUCION SITE MANAGEMENT
To ensure the proper implementation and functioning of erosion and sediment control measures, the Contractor shall regularly inspect and maintain the construction site for the control measures identified in the SWPPP. The Contractor shall identify corrective actions and time frames to address any deficient measures or reinitiate any measures that have been discontinued. All necessary BMP materials are included in this item.
The Contractor may obtain a copy of the City’s construction site inspection checklist; this shall be used to ensure that the necessary measures are being properly implemented, and to ensure that the control measures are functioning adequately. The Contractor shall submit one copy of each QSP site inspection record to the City Engineer via [email protected].
During the rainy season, inspections of the construction site shall be conducted by the Contractor to identify deficient measures, as follows:
Within 48 hours prior to a forecasted storm.
Post-storm event (within 48 hours) after all precipitation, which causes runoff capable of carrying sediment from the construction site, has ceased.

Slurry Seal
“Slurry Seal” es un sello asfaltico y es
económico al pavimento para prolongar la vida
de la calle. Este tratamiento evita fuertes gastos
de reconstrucción en el futuro.
Debido a la cantidad de calles que se estarán
haciendo el mismo día, no es posible avisarle a
qué hora se tratara su calle. Por favor le pedimos
paciencia, ya que la inconveniencia del
mantenimiento es mucho menor que la que se
necesitara si no se trata a tiempo.
Conducir o caminar sobre el pavimento con sello
fresco antes de que se seque puede dañar el sello.
EI material es altamente adhesivo, se pega en la
ropa, zapatos, alfombras, pero se puede limpiar
con algunos limpiadores disponibles en cualquier
tienda de auto partes. Lea y siga las instrucciones
del producto que compre.
Evite dar vueltas cerradas en su auto en las calles
que han sido selladas. Es preferible dar vueltas
más abiertas para no dañar las calles.

Slurry Seal
Is an asphalt seal coat that is a very economical
surface treatment that prolongs the life of the
asphalt by stopping erosion from water and
oxidation from the sun. Timely preventative
maintenance like this helps avoid extremely
costly street rebuilding in the future.
Due to the number of streets scheduled, we
cannot tell you the exact time your street will be
done. We realize the inconvenience caused by
limiting access to your street. Please consider that
the inconvenience caused at this time is very
small compared to what would later be required
if this protection were not applied.
Driving or walking on this new material before it
has cured will damage the street and will stick to
your shoes, be splattered up onto your car, and
will track onto concrete driveways, carpets and
floors. The material is highly adhesive but can be
removed from vehicles with tar removers
available from local auto parts stores. Read and
follow the directions from any products
purchased.
Emulsion aggregate slurry seal coat will be
damaged by sharp turning during the curing
phase, specifically power steering turns. This can
be avoided by making wide turns. Always be sure
the vehicle is moving before turning the steering
wheel.

City of Salinas Addendum to Caltrans SWPPP Template
SWPPP Amendment 1 - Only applicable for projects not subject to Caltrans oversight.
General
1. Caltrans ROW = City of Salinas ROW.
2. All references to the Construction General Permit (CGP) (CAS000002, Order No. 2009-2009- DWQ) includes all amendments to the CGP though the date of Contract acceptance.
3. All references to the Caltrans Storm Water Management Program (Caltrans Permit SWRCB Order No. 99-06-DWQ, NPDES No. CAS000003) shall be replaced with the City of Salinas Order No.
R3-2012-0005 (NPDES Permit No. CA004981).
4. All references to NELs and the Lake Tahoe Hydrologic Unit are removed (unless Active Treatment Systems, as defined by the CGP Attachment F are used).
5. The approved SWPPP, all sampling results, annual and if applicable, dewatering compliance reports, shall be submitted to the City via the State Water Board’s Storm Water Multi-Application and Report Tracking Systems (SMARTS) website unless the Special Provisions state otherwise.
6. All site discharges shall be sampled to ensure that sampling data is collected for every day with discharge during or after each qualifying storm event except for days where discharge occurs outside of working hours.) Note this will require more sampling than the Caltrans template specifies.
Construction monitoring, sampling, and REAP preparation shall be consistent with the Construction General Permit:
Forecasted rain events shall not be defined by the amount of precipitation, only the probability of precipitation (i.e. eliminate 0.1-inch or more requirement from forecasted rain event definition so that it is consistent with the Construction General Permit definition of a likely storm event). This means that REAPS and pre-storm inspections will occur more frequently than the Caltrans template specifies.
Qualifying rain event definition in template is revised to be consistent with Construction General Permit definition of a qualifying rain event (i.e. any event that produces 0.5-inches or more precipitation with a 48 hour or greater period between rain events). REAPS shall be prepared 48 hours prior to any likely precipitation event. REAPs shall be implemented and made available on site no later than 24 hours prior to the likely precipitation event.
SWPPP Template Section 600.5 Best Management Practices Status Report:
This entire section is eliminated unless the Special Provisions indicate otherwise

CITY OF SALINAS
COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
DATE: NOVEMBER 14, 2023
DEPARTMENT: ADMINISTRATION
FROM: PATRICIA M. BARAJAS, CITY CLERK
TITLE: CATALIST (QALERT) SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve the subscription renewal with Catalis to provide on-call software for residents of Salinas to submit requests or concerns in the amount of $61,689.59.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Catalis is a centralized Request Management System (RMS) solution which streamlines business processes and communications with internal and external customers by creating a more effective and efficient government through technology. Catalis, formerly QScend Technologies (QAlert), is the City’s primary solution for residents to submit service requests via the SalinasConnect mobile application and website reporting dashboard. Catalis annual subscription is set to expire on December 31, 2023. Subscription renewal shall not exceed $61,689.59 for the period of January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025 and sets the subscription renewal period in line with the City’s fiscal year cycle.
BACKGROUND:
In 2017, the city retained QScend Technologies (QAlert), later acquired by Catalis, to develop a web-based and mobile management application system. Catalis software has allowed all Departments to receive and maintain electronic records of all service request and activities from creation of the request to final resolution. Catalis allows residents to place ser vice request via an app, a call, or website . The system automatically processes the request and routes it to the appropriate staff or department to address. The request is then logged and when the issue is resolved, or updates are entered by staff with notifications to the users as progress is made on a service request.
Additionally, as part of the service agreement with Catalis, the city receives unlimited user licenses for large-scale deploymen t of the mobile management app ( QAlert Mobile) to reduce inefficiencies and improve workflows in the field using an iPad, and a Salinas -specific branded mobile application (SalinasConnect) for iPhone and Android. Catalis also features reporting tools Page | 2
for City staff to generate custom activity reports on an automatic schedule available for dissemination as needed.
Catalis’s web-based dashboard, mobile application, SalinasConnect, and the call-center software continue to ensure resident requests and concerns are addressed more efficiently throug h technology and increasing transparency.
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:
Subscription of Catalis (QAlert) is in line with the City Council Goal of Effective and Culturally Responsive Government. The Council identified strategies that included evaluating technology gaps, effective governance, and transparency.
DEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
The City Clerk’s Office continues to work in coordination with all department to support the request management solution and communication with constituents.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
Funding is available and appropriated in 1000.1120, the City Clerk’s annual operating budget .
