I. Submittal Requirements

1. General: It is strongly recommended that the Proposer submit proposals in the format identified in this RFP to allow the City to fully evaluate and compare the proposal.

All requirements and questions in the RFP should be addressed and all requested data shall be supplied. The City reserves the right to request additional information which, in the City’s opinion, is necessary to assure that the Proposer’s competence, number of qualified employees, business organization, and financial resources are adequate to perform according to the Agreement.

2. Preparation: Proposals should be prepared in such a way as to provide a straightforward, concise delineation of capabilities to satisfy the requirements of this RFP.

Responses should emphasize the Proposer’s demonstrated capability to perform the Services.

Expensive bindings and promotional materials, etc., are not necessary or desired. However, technical literature that supports the approach to providing the Services and work plan should be forwarded as part of the proposal. Emphasis should be concentrated on completeness, approach to the work and clarity of proposal.

3. Site Examination: Proposers may visit the City and its physical facilities to determine the local conditions which may in any way affect the performance of the work; familiarize themselves with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and codes affecting the performance of the work; make such investigations, as it may deem necessary for performance of the Services at its proposal price within the terms of the Agreement; and correlate its observations, investigations, and determinations with the requirements of the Agreement.

4. Authorization: The proposal shall be signed by an individual, partner, officer or officers authorized to execute legal documents on behalf of the Proposer.

5. Confidentiality of Proposal: Pursuant to Michaelis, Montanari, & Johnson v. Superior Court (2006) 38 Cal.4th 1065, proposals submitted in response to this RFP shall be held confidential by City and shall not be subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act (Cal. Government Code section 6250 et seq.) until after either City and the successful Proposer have completed negotiations and entered into an Agreement or City has rejected all proposals.

If a Proposer desires to exclude a portion of its proposal from disclosure under the California Public Records Act, the Proposer must mark it as such and state the specific provision in the California Public Records Act which provides the exemption as well as the factual basis for claiming the exemption. For example, if a Proposer submits trade secret information, the Proposer must plainly mark the information as “Trade Secret” and refer to the appropriate section of the California Public Records Act which provides the exemption as well as the factual basis for claiming the exemption. Although the California Public Records Act recognizes that certain confidential trade secret information may be protected from disclosure, the City may not be in a position to establish that the information that a Proposer submits is a trade secret. If a request is made for information marked “Confidential”, “Trade Secret” or “Proprietary” (“Proprietary Information”), the City will provide Proposers who submitted the information with reasonable notice to seek protection from disclosure by a court of competent jurisdiction. Proposer shall have five (5) working days after receipt of such notice to give City written notice of Proposer's objection to the City's release of Proprietary Information. Proposer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the City, and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against all liability, loss, cost or expense (including attorney's fees) arising out of a legal action brought to compel the release of Proprietary Information.

Proposals which indiscriminately identify all or most of the proposal as exempt from disclosure without justification may be deemed unresponsive and disqualified from further participation in this procurement.

Submittal Instructions The proposal must be uploaded to planetbids.com no later than 3:00 pm local time, on or before April 12, 2022.

The City shall not be responsible for proposals that are submitted late or not submitted electronically via planetbids.com, lost, incorrectly marked, sent to an address other than that given herein, or sent by mail or courier service and not signed for by the City.

J. General Conditions

1. Amendments to RFP: The City reserves the right to amend the RFP and issue to all Proposers an addendum.

2. Amendments to Proposals: Unless specifically requested by the City, no amendment, addendum, or modification shall be accepted after a proposal has been submitted to City. If a change to a proposal that has been submitted is desired, the submitted proposal must be withdrawn and the replacement proposal submitted prior to the deadline stated herein for receiving proposals.

3. Non-Responsive Proposals: A proposal may be considered nonresponsive if conditional, incomplete, or if it contains alterations of form, additions not called for, or other irregularities that may constitute a material change to the proposal.

Experience
Question: How will our experience, technical and professional skills will meet the goals and fulfill the general functions identified in the RFP. Answer: We have over 40 years’ experience in large scale public works landscape maintenance, with an office in Fontana, California which is less than 20 minutes from the center of the City of San Bernardino. With this location and the large number of employees working out of our Fontana office we have the capabilities to rapidly mobilize a large force to quickly address anything landscape related in the City of San Bernardino. Most of our equipment and trucks are new for a project of this size, but you can see from our “Company Equipment Assets” we have a large inventory of backup equipment.

Regarding the experience of our staff to be tentatively assigned to perform the services for this project, we have a depth of experience and qualifications that exceeds our competitors. Please look at the “Staffing Resources” we have included in this RFP. Most of the experience of our staff is from working on similar services to the City of San Bernardino contract covered in this request for proposal.

We have continuously been in the landscape maintenance business under single ownership since 1977. 45 years of experience performing public works maintenance like the work in this RFP. In addition to that we have won over 95 awards for project excellence in both maintenance and landscape installation since the late 1970’s.

Dispatch and General Approach
Our workers will be dispatched from our Fontana office located at 11093 Almond Avenue, Fontana, CA 92335. The daily trash and cleaning will be performed 7-days a week. Mowing will be Monday through Friday throughout the growing season. The specific day each location is visited and tasks to be performed can be based on a mutually agreed upon schedule with the City Representative based on the needs and requirements of the City.

Daily Cleaning, trash & Inspections – Project Wide
This work will be performed with 3 separate crews with a minimum of 5 workers (3 crew leaders and 1 crew member.) These crews will be supplemented with up to 3 more laborers as needed during periods of heavier use of the parks. These crews are tasked with performing work prior to the timelines indicated in the specifications. These crews are in 3 separate stake bed trucks performing these primary duties:
• Trash pickup
• Trash can liner replacement
• Doggie station liner replacement & dumping
• Hardscape and BBQ cleaning
• Ramada, bench, and sign power washing
• Visual backflow inspections (immediately alerting
After these crews are finished with timeline dependent responsibilities, they are working in bed maintenance and weed control.

Irrigation Monitoring & Repair – Project Wide
There are two full time irrigation crews in this project that vary in size from 2 to 6 workers as necessary to perform all irrigation inspections as well as necessary repairs. They will be dispatched in 2 to 4 trucks based on the workload and to stay on schedule. Trucks are equipped with toolboxes and pipe racks as well as a standard issue of commonly used parts. The irrigation technicians will also have universal remotes to facilitate and speed up inspections.

Spraying and Pest Control – Project Wide
We have a spray technician full time during periods of the year where weed control and pre-emergent is applies.

IPM practices will be the favored method of control. Periodically this technician will be called out for specific pests like rodent control. The Pest Control Technician operates with a 1-ton flatbed truck with a skid mounted 200gal spray rig.

Mowing Operations
The regular mowing, edging and cleanup of all the turf areas will be accomplished with 3 crews consisting of 12 workers (3 crew leader/operators and 9 laborers/operators.) These crews will be 3 separate stake bed trucks with trailers carrying:
72” mowers, 60” mowers, 36” mowers, 21” mowers, Stick Edgers, String Trimmers & Backpack Blowers All of the turf areas will be mowed within a one-week cycle.

Full time Locations
There are two locations that will have full time workers:

Pioneer Cemetery1 – 3 Workers & Perris Hill Park – 2 Workers 1 We have current experience in maintaining a cemetery in Santa Monica. The Santa Monica site is larger and has more headstones and requires full time workers. These types of facilities have unique requirements like trimming around headstones and removing flowers on a regular basis.

For the overseeding included in this proposal, our intent is to mow the existing turf down to ½” over successive mows, then flail mow down to ¼”. Debris will be picked up with a turf vac or some other suitable method.

PTO Flail Mower Attachment PTO Slit Seeder Attachment
Irrigation components will be located and flagged prior to flail mowing operations to avoid damage.

After the flail mowing operations and the excess grass is cleaned up, we will plant the seed. The seed type we estimated for this work is Fast Track Perennial Rye (or equal) planted at the rate of 11 lbs per 1,000 square feet.

Seeding operations will be performed by a PTO driven Slit Seeder attachment mounted on a tractor with turf tires.

Seed cover is not required with this equipment on overseeded turf. Clean up includes removing the flags on the irrigation components and checking the systems for proper operation.

Other Overseeding methods
We also offer alternate methods for overseeding that may work better depending on the conditions, time of year and desired results. Sometimes planting stolons of specific hybrid varieties of Bermuda grass may be the best approach. Planting the stolons with a special hydroseeder is the quickest method. This works well on sports field turf. Combining top dressing with broadcast seed on bare soil could also be an option in some of the parks.

Hydroseed application Topdresser for seed cover
We can price these alternate methods for the City on a case by case basis.

Packet Pg. 1746 Attachment: Attachment 7 - Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Proposal (9043 : Agreement with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for Landscape Our Core Values – Safety • Teamwork • Quality • Integrity Page 14 Extra Work Pricing Process
At times, work above and beyond the contract scope becomes necessary. Our process to take care of this is:
• Straight Forward – Simple pricing and approval process ahead of time • Transparent – The Customer sees what was purchased by us • Honest – The hours and material estimated are what is used, nothing exceeds the approved estimate • With No Surprises – Billing either matches or is less than what was quoted on the proposal When a customer desires additional work or an emergency arises, there must be some mechanism to quickly communicate and agree upon the cost. Many times, situations arise where it is difficult to come up with a cost ahead of time. We solve that issue with the following 4 step process:

1. Work is identified and a “Not-to-exceed” proposal is created

2. Customer receives the proposal and approves the work

3. Work proceeds, labor is tracked, and receipts are copied

4. Billing NEVER exceeds the original proposal. It is either equal to or less than the original proposal If an issue is uncovered that changes the
scope of the original estimate, the
proposal is revised and resubmitted for
approval (typically with attached
pictures and a clear explanation). Work
will not proceed until there is client
approval of the change.

Key…
The billing for any extra work does not
exceed what you originally approved.

The sample proposal to the left would
be something irrigation related where
multiple valves would need to be
replaced because of an auto accident.

Packet Pg. 1747 Attachment: Attachment 7 - Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Proposal (9043 : Agreement with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for Landscape Our Core Values – Safety • Teamwork • Quality • Integrity Page 15 Quality Control Program
We perform internal quality control on our work to free up our contract monitor or client representative (be it a Public Works Inspector or Property Manager) so that he or she will have a reduced work load. This creates a positive environment for everyone involved and enhances our client relationships. Our main philosophy behind quality control is summed up in one statement “Plan your work and work your plan.” Therefore, the work is to be planned and monitored in the following ways:

Annual Work Schedule
Here is a sample schedule. A final schedule will be provided upon start of work.

Within 30 days of award of the contract we will submit an annual work schedule that will organize all the assigned areas into sectioned areas. The sectioned areas will be per the approval of the client representative. The schedule will designate the areas included with the service level and general tasks completed for that month. Any revisions to this schedule will be submitted to the client representative for approval. A review of this schedule will be made at monthly meetings to evaluate success.

Packet Pg. 1748 Attachment: Attachment 7 - Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Proposal (9043 : Agreement with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for Landscape Our Core Values – Safety • Teamwork • Quality • Integrity Page 16 Monthly Work Plans
The Mariposa Account Manager will submit Monthly Work Plans describing maintenance operations of all areas contained within this contract and when the work, including trimming, pruning and applications of chemicals/fertilizers will be accomplished. Other work will include the removing and/or replacing of landscape materials within the scope of this Contract. The work may include landscape renovations of right-of-ways, medians, retention areas and/or common turf areas. The Account Manager will develop the Monthly Work Plans and submit them to the client representative by the 25th of the previous month prior to the regular monthly meeting. The Monthly Work Plan will correlate with the Annual Work Schedule in a more detailed form. After the plan is approved at the regular monthly meeting the Monthly Schedule Evaluation Form will be completed with the client representative to evaluate the performance of the current month. The Mariposa Supervisor is responsible for creating and submitting these reports.

Irrigation Reports
The Irrigation Technician will create the Irrigation Reports at the specified frequencies and the Mariposa Account Manager will insure their accurate and timely completion. These reports will include scheduled formal inspections, all service requests, authorized emergency work and repair of damage. The Irrigation Technician will be responsible for conducting a formal inspection and related repairs of the irrigation system as scheduled. Results of the inspection shall be recorded on the Irrigation Inspection Report and checked for accuracy and then delivered to the client representative. The frequency of these reports will vary depending on the work scope.

Account Manager/Client Meeting Work Quality Evaluations A critical aspect of the work is communication. Timely and accurate schedules address a lot of this; however, there is another important aspect that is sometimes overlooked: interpretations of quality. What is beautiful to some is not to others, this is why specifications are written. However, there is always some level of interpretation that can vary from person to person. The goal is to have the Mariposa Account Manager and the client representative both interpreting the expectations of the specifications in the same way. The way we accomplish this is through a graded evaluation of every aspect of the landscape on a site by the Mariposa Supervisor and the client representative. This evaluation is performed prior to the regular client representative meeting by the Mariposa Supervisor. When the regular meeting takes place, this same form is given to the client representative to evaluate the exact same items as the Mariposa Account Manager previously graded. Any differences in evaluation that the client representative has of the same work item or area that were graded by the Mariposa Supervisor are addressed immediately and clarified.

The frequency of these evaluations and number of work items evaluated can vary based on the work scope. Please see the sample form provided.

Action Item Lists
Even with jobs that go perfectly there are always items that come up during walk-through inspections. These items may have nothing to do with work quality but may be requests for improvement, additional work or notations of concern, etc. One of the key aspects of an action item list is a target completion date. This is included for every item on our form. The Mariposa Account Manager is committed to completion of a requested activity at an agreed upon date. This is in writing; it’s quick and easy to fill out. The client representative will have confidence that we will keep our promises because they are documented. Our goal is “Promises made are promises kept.” Please see the sample form provided.

Our company has a recycling program for green waste and paper products. We implement this program at our local offices and at all job sites.

Mariposa currently uses hybrid vehicles and is researching and looking forward to obtaining hybrid equipment to be used on our contracts. We strive to be as environmentally conscientious as possible and are expanding our operations to achieve this goal.

Mariposa works with all clients to assure optimum water usage where possible. Mariposa notifies all Project Managers of the green initiatives prior to the award of the contract.

In addition to the Green Initiative, we are also committed to leading the industry in minimizing the impact of its activities on the environment.

The key points of its strategy to achieve this are:
• Minimize waste by evaluating operations and ensuring they are as efficient as possible. • Minimize toxic emissions through the selection and use of its fleet and equipment. • Actively promote recycling both internally and amongst its customers and suppliers. • Meet or exceed all the environmental legislation that relates to the Company. • Adhere to all local codes and ordinances regarding water conservation.

Packet Pg. 1758 Attachment: Attachment 7 - Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Proposal (9043 : Agreement with Parkwood Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for Landscape Our Core Values – Safety • Teamwork • Quality • Integrity Page 28 Integrated Pest Management
Integrated pest management (IPM) is an ecosystem-based strategy that focuses on long-term prevention of pests or their damage through a combination of techniques such as biological control, habitat manipulation, modification of cultural practices, and use of resistant varieties. Pesticides are used only after monitoring indicates they are needed according to established guidelines, and treatments are made with the goal of removing only the target organism.

Pest control materials are selected and applied in a manner that minimizes risks to human health, beneficial and non-target organisms, and the environment.

Biological control
Biological control is the use of natural enemies—predators, parasites, pathogens, and competitors—to control pests and their damage. Though Mariposa does not introduce any beneficial organisms into the environment, we do identify and encourage their presence.

Cultural controls
Cultural controls are practices that reduce pest establishment, reproduction, dispersal, and survival. For example, changing irrigation practices can reduce pest problems, since too much water can increase root disease and weeds.

Mechanical and physical controls
Mechanical and physical controls kill a pest directly or make the environment unsuitable for it. Traps for rodents are examples of mechanical control. Physical controls include mulches for weed management, steam sterilization of the soil for disease management, or barriers such as screens to keep birds or insects out.

Chemical control
Chemical control is the use of pesticides. Mariposa Landscapes uses pesticides only when needed and in combination with other approaches for more effective, long-term control. Also, pesticides are selected and applied in a way that minimizes their possible harm to people and the environment. With IPM we use the most selective pesticide that will do the job and be the safest for other organisms and for air, soil, and water quality.

For example, the Calsense Central System provides a safer and more efficient irrigation system.

Our irrigation technicians are also certified to work with reclaimed water. Creating a drought tolerant landscape is critical for communities, which is why we optimize for both the community and environment to satisfy the needs of our customers.

We have also used lighting to be able to display the landscape after hours. Now communities can enjoy the view of the landscape both during the day and night. Lighting is a great way for communities to take full advantage of the landscape its city provides, which used to be limited to day hours.

Consent Calendar
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: June 15, 2022
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Robert D. Field, City Manager
By: Daniel Hernandez, Director of Public Works
Subject: PSA for Management/Inspection for Install of Advanced Dilemma Zone Detection (Wards 1,2,3,4,6,7)
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, approve the award of a Professional Service Agreement to Infrastructure Engineers in the amount of $110,630 for construction management and inspections services for the construction and installation of Advanced Dilemma Zone Detection system at 49 signalized intersections at three corridors: Baseline Street, Mount Vernon Avenue, and Highland Avenue.

Background
The Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is a core Federal-aid program with the purpose to achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads, including non-State-owned roads and roads on tribal land. The HSIP requires a data-driven, strategic approach to improving highway safety on all public roads with a focus on performance.

The HSIP is legislated under Section 148 of Title 23, United States Code (23 U.S.C. 148) and regulated under Part 924 of Title 23, Code of Federal Regulations (23 CFR Part 924). The HSIP consists of three main components, the Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP), State HSIP or program of highway safety improvement projects and the Railway-Highway Crossing Program (RHCP), In addition, some states also have a High Risk Rural Roads (HRRR) program if they had increasing fatality rate on rural roads.

HSIP Cycle 9 call for projects was announced in May 2018 and in August 2018. The City of San Bernardino submitted an application in order to obtain funding for construction and installation of the advanced dilemma zone detection system at 49 signalized intersections on three corridors: Baseline Street, Mount Vernon Avenue, and Highland Avenue. On December 27, 2018, the City received a HSIP grant in the amount of $4,341,400 to carry out the project.

On June 19, 2019, the Mayor and City Council approved Resolution No. 2019-168 adopting the City’s Annual Operating Budget for Fiscal Year 2019/20. The budget included Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) TC20-008 project to provide construction and 39 Packet Pg. 1869

installation of Advanced Dilemma Zone Detection system at 49 signalized intersections on three corridors: Baseline Street, Mt. Vernon Avenue, and Highland Avenue; and established $4,341,400 in HSIP Grant funds to support the project. The Design for the project was completed in July 2021 by Iteris, Inc. at a total cost of $339,547.

Caltrans approved federal funding in the amount of $3,879,340.00 for construction and issued E-76 federal authorization and construction engineering in the amount of $122,060 (Attachment No. 2).

Discussion
On March 28, 2022, staff advertised for the construction management and inspections services to provide construction and installation of Advanced Dilemma Zone Detection system at 49 signalized intersections. On April 21, 2022, staff received two proposals from the following firms:

No. Firm Location
1 Infrastructure Engineers San Bernardino, CA
2 FCG Consultants Yorba Linda, CA
A selection committee consisting of City staff reviewed the proposals and the two firms were invited to present their proposals to and interview with the selection panel on May 3, 2022.

The two firms attended the presentation/interview and were interviewed by the panel.

Infrastructure Engineers received superior ratings in the areas of related experience, adequacy of staff, completion schedule, depth of understanding of the project and project approach. The firm has extensive experience and successfully completed similar tasks for numerous cities throughout Southern California. Using the approved Caltrans consultant selection process, the panel determined that the firm of Infrastructure Engineers demonstrated the best capability to provide construction management and inspections services for the construction and installation of Advanced Dilemma Zone Detection system at 49 signalized intersections. City staff negotiated the submitted proposal from $165,585 to $110,630.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This project is consistent with Key Target No. 1d: Improved Operational & Financial Capacity - Create a framework for spending decisions. Approval of this resolution will result in public improvements being constructed that minimize risk and litigation exposure through upgrading the existing traffic signals on various arterials within the City.

Fiscal Impact
