6. Schedule the adoption of Ordinance No. MC-1642 for September 18, 2024.
Executive Summary
The recommended action is the second step of the annexation process for the proposed development into Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2019-1 (Maintenance Services). The property owner has petitioned the City to annex into the City’s CFD to mitigate it’s impacts for maintenance service of public facilities as a result of the new development. The City Council approved the Resolution of Intention on July 17, 2024, setting today the time and place of the public hearing. The special taxes will be levied annually to offset general fund expenditures related to maintenance of public improvements within and for the benefit of the development.
Background
On December 7, 2022, the Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-263, a Resolution of Intention to annex territory into Community Facilities District No. 2019-1 (Maintenance Services) of the City of San Bernardino (the “Resolution of Intention”), pursuant to the provisions of the “Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982”.
On July 17, 2024, the Mayor and City Council was presented with a request to adjust the rates previously approved on December 7, 2022, to include additional maintenance of slopes and open space. The Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024- 152, declaring its intent to amend Resolution No. 2022-263 and adjust the rates previously approved. A public hearing was set for September 4, 2024, on the proposed amendment to Tax Zone 29 of CFD No. 2019-1.
The Resolution of Intention was adopted by the Mayor and City Council in response to a petition filed by the property owner of approximately 24.83 gross acres of a vacant residential lot within the City, requesting that the City assist them in amending CFD No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29 under the Mello-Roos Act. The proposed project will remain unchanged and consist of 20 detached single-family lots. The State legislature enacted the Mello-Roos Act in 1982 to assist public agencies in financing certain public improvements by either issuing tax exempt securities that are repaid by annual levy of special taxes, or to provide for the financing of on-going public services. The landowner requested the City amend CFD No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29 to levy a special tax to cover the costs associated with the maintenance of public improvements. The public facilities and services proposed to be financed within CFD No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29 are the following:
1. Maintenance of median landscaping and other public improvements installed within the public right-of-way; and
2. Public lighting and appurtenant facilities, including streetlights within public rights-of-way and traffic signals; and
3. City and County costs associated with the setting, levying and collection of the Packet Page. 17
special tax, and in the administration of the District including the contract administration and for the collection of reserve funds.
Tax Zone 29 is located at the intersection of Ohio Street and N Little League Drive, as shown in Attachment #13.
The amended maximum annual special tax for this development has been calculated to be $954 per unit for FY 2024/25. Special Tax rate is proposed to escalate each year at the greater of Consumer Price Index (CPI) or 2%. The property owners have agreed to initiate and conduct the CFD annexation proceedings pursuant to the Mello-Roos Act of 1982. The property owners have submitted a “Consent and Waiver” form on file in the City Clerk’s Office to initiate and conduct proceedings pursuant to the MelloRoos Act in 1982, for the annexation into the CFD and consenting to the shortening of election time requirements, waiving analysis and arguments, and waiving all notice requirements relating to the conduct of the election.
In order to amend CFD No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29 pursuant to the provisions of California Government Code Section 53311 et seq., the City must adopt a series of three statutorily required Resolutions and an Ordinance which are summarized below. • Resolution declaring City intent to amend the rate and method of apportionment of special taxes within Community Facilities District No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29 (the special tax applies only to properties within the annexation area), adopted July 17, 2024.
• Resolution calling an election to submit to the qualified electors the question of levying an amended special tax within Community Facilities District No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29.
• Resolution declaring the results of the election and directing the recording of the notice of special tax lien.
• Amend the Ordinance and order the levy and collection of special taxes in the District.
With the adoption of the Resolutions and the first reading of the amended Ordinance, the adoption of the amended Ordinance would be scheduled for September 18, 2024.
Discussion
The Resolution of Intention called for a public hearing to be held on September 4, 2024, on the issue of amending the special tax for CFD No. 2019-1 Tax Zone 29. Under the Mello-Roos Act, the Mayor and City Council must hold the public hearing and consider any protests against the formation of the CFD. If the owners of one half or more of the land within the boundaries of the CFD file written protests against the establishment of the CFD, the Council may not create the CFD. If a majority protest is not filed, the Mayor and City Council may adopt the resolution establishing the CFD.
The adoption of Resolution No. 2019-178 on July 17, 2019, established CFD 2019-1, pursuant to the requirements of Government Code Section 53325.1. After a CFD is Packet Page. 18
formed, the Mello-Roos Act requires that for any annexations into the CFD an election be held on the question of whether the proposed special taxes should be levied. The election requires a two-thirds vote in favor of levying the special tax. The landowners filed waivers with respect to the conduct of the election pursuant to Government Code Sections 53326(a) and 53327(b), meaning that the time limits and procedural requirements for conducting an election under the Mello-Roos Act do not have to be followed. Accordingly, City staff has already mailed the election ballots to the landowners and required the ballots to be returned by the close of the public hearing.
If the Mayor and City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-___, it may immediately proceed to the opening of the ballots and adopt Resolution No. 2024-___ declaring the results of the election.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This project is consistent with Key Target No 1. Improved Operational & Financial Capacity and Key Target No. 4: Economic Growth & Development. This project will contribute to ensure that the City is clean and attractive and provide infrastructure designed for long term economic growth.
Fiscal Impact
All costs associated with annexation into the CFD have been borne by the Developer. By annexing into the CFD, the costs of maintaining improvements located within the development will be financed through special taxes levied on the parcels within CFD No. 2019-1 and not through the City’s General Fund.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:

City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: September 4, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Rochelle Clayton, Acting City Manager;
Kenneth Chapa, Director of Economic Development
Department: Economic Development
Subject: Irrevocable Agreement to Annex No. 2024-379 (Ward 6) Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution No. 2024-193 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, approving the application to the Local Agency Formation Commission to provide City sewer services to a property located at 2210 Ogden Street, San Bernardino, California, within the unincorporated County of San Bernardino territory of Muscoy; and authorizing the City Manager to execute an Irrevocable Agreement to Annex.
Executive Summary
In November 2022, the San Bernardino Water Department received a request for sewer service from the owners of a parcel located at 2210 Ogden Street (APN: 0267- 091-17) for a connection to the sewer collection system. The property owner is abandoning the existing septic tank and is desirous of a connection to the sewer collection. The Water Department has determined that there is an available 18-inch vitrified clay pipe sanitary sewer main within Duffy Street, fronting the subject parcel and the department can serve this parcel.
Background
In November 2022, the San Bernardino Water Department received a request for sewer service from the owners of a parcel located at 2210 Ogden Street (APN: 0267- 091-17) for a connection to the sewer collection system. The property owner is abandoning the existing septic tank and is desirous of a connection to the sewer collection.
In 1994, the California Government Code Section was amended by the addition of Section 56133, which requires the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) to Packet Page. 76
approve the provision of new City services outside its corporate boundaries. The annexation of single parcels is not desirable since it creates uneven boundaries and creates confusion regarding the delivery of other City services. The unincorporated area of San Bernardino County, otherwise known as Muscoy, is contiguous to City boundaries; however, annexation of this individual property would result in other islands.
In September of 1997 the City of San Bernardino adopted Resolution No. 97-275, a policy relative to the providing of sewer services outside of City boundaries. The policy includes a payment of $1,300 for the initial sewer connection application processing fee. Additionally, the petitioner will pay all LAFCO related fees directly to LAFCO and the normal sewer capacity and connection fees to the Water Department for processing the Irrevocable Annexation Agreement.
The policy also requires the land use to be consistent with the City's General Plan and the property owner to execute an "Irrevocable Agreement to Annex" in the event that this property is included in an annexation proceeding sometime in the future.
Discussion
The Water Department has indicated that there is adequate capacity at the wastewater treatment plant to serve this property and the Water Department has indicated that the existing residential use is consistent with the City's General Plan. The Water Department has determined that there is an available 18-inch vitrified clay pipe sanitary sewer main within Duffy Street, fronting the subject parcel and the department can serve this parcel.
LAFCO requires the Agency providing the service to complete the application. The Resolution will allow the city to submit an application to LAFCO if approved by the Mayor and City Council. The Irrevocable Agreement to Annex will be executed between the City and the applicant.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The Irrevocable Agreement to Annex is consistent with Key Target No. 4b: Update the General Plan and Development Code as it ensures this property meets General Plan use and will be included in a future City annexation of this unincorporated area.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The $1,300 sewer connection application processing fee has been paid by the applicant. The applicant will also pay the corresponding sewer capacity and connection fees to the Water Department, and other LAFCO application fees.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution No. 2024-193 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, approving the application to the Local Agency Formation Commission to Packet Page. 77
provide City sewer services to a property located at 2210 Ogden Street, San Bernardino, California, within the unincorporated County of San Bernardino territory of Muscoy; and authorizing the City Manager to execute an Irrevocable Agreement to Annex.

Request for Council Action
Date: September 4, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Rochelle Clayton, Acting City Manager;
Kenneth Chapa, Director of Economic Development
Department: Economic Development
Subject: Irrevocable Agreement to Annex No. 2024-380 (Ward 6) Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution No. 2024-192 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, approving the application to the Local Agency Formation Commission to provide City sewer services to a property located at 2179 Blake Street, San Bernardino, California, within the unincorporated County of San Bernardino territory of Muscoy; and authorizing the City Manager to execute an Irrevocable Agreement to Annex.
Executive Summary
The recommended action will allow the property owner to initiate the process to connect to the City of San Bernardino Water Department for sewer services. This process also requires the property owner to execute an "Irrevocable Agreement to Annex" in the event that this property is included in an annexation proceeding sometime in the future.
Background
In November 2022, the San Bernardino Water Department received a request for sewer service from the owners of a parcel located at 2179 Blake Street (APN: 0268- 031-07) for a connection to the sewer collection system. The property owner is abandoning the existing septic tank and is desirous of a connection to the sewer collection.
In 1994, the California Government Code Section was amended by the addition of Section 56133, which requires the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) to approve the provision of new City services outside its corporate boundaries.

The policy includes a payment of $1,300 for the initial sewer connection application processing fee. Additionally, the petitioner will pay all LAFCO related fees directly to LAFCO and the normal sewer capacity and connection fees to the Water Department for processing the Irrevocable Annexation Agreement.
The policy also requires the land use to be consistent with the City's General Plan and the property owner to execute an "Irrevocable Agreement to Annex" in the event that this property is included in an annexation proceeding sometime in the future.
Discussion
The Water Department has indicated that there is adequate capacity at the wastewater treatment plant to serve this property and the Water Department has indicated that the existing residential use is consistent with the City's General Plan. The Water Department has determined that there is an available 21-inch vitrified clay pipe sanitary sewer main within Blake Street, fronting the subject parcel and the department can serve this parcel.
LAFCO requires the Agency providing the service to complete the application. The resolution will allow the city to submit an application to LAFCO if approved by Mayor and City Council. Upon approval by LAFCO, the Irrevocable Agreement to Annex will be executed between the City and the applicant.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
The Irrevocable Agreement to Annex is consistent with Key Target No. 4b: Update the General Plan and Development Code as it ensures this property meets General Plan use and will be included in a future City annexation of this unincorporated area.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. The $1,300 sewer connection application processing fee has been paid by the applicant. The applicant will also pay the corresponding sewer capacity and connection fees to the Water Department, and other LAFCO application fees.

Request for Council Action
Date: September 4, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Rochelle Clayton, Acting City Manager;
Kenneth Chapa, Director of Economic Development
Department: Economic Development
Subject: San Bernardino Soccer Complex Lease Assignment with World Sports Arena, LLC (Ward 2)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, adopt Resolution No. 2024-194, authorizing the City Manager to execute the Lease Assignment Agreement for the San Bernardino Soccer Complex, located at 2500 Pacific Street, San Bernardino, California; assigning the Lease with San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to World Sports Arena, LLC.
Executive Summary
The recommended action will assign the San Bernardino Soccer Complex Lease from San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to World Sports Arena, LLC. The Lease Agreement is good through September 30, 2025, and carries three (3) five-year extension options.
All terms of the Lease Agreement with San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, will remain unchanged once the Lease is assigned to World Sports Arena, LLC.
Background
On October 19, 2015, the Mayor and City Council approved the lease agreement between the City of San Bernardino and San Bernardino Soccer, LLC with a good through date of September 30, 2025. Shortly after the execution of the Lease, San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, contracted Roberto Gomide to manage the day-to-day operations which included capital upgrades, field reconstruction, maintenance, promotion, and event hosting. Gomide and his team have established the facility as a premier regional soccer destination, hosting some of the most prestigious youth soccer tournaments on the West Coast.
The Lease Agreement with San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, is good through September Packet Page. 108
30, 2025, and carries three (3) five-year extension options. The Lease Agreement outlines the operation and maintenance requirements of the San Bernardino Soccer Complex, which included the establishment and funding of a capital improvement program for the long-term care of the facility.
The San Bernardino Soccer Complex is City-owned and consists of 47 acres of open green space that includes 17 full-sized soccer fields, 4 of which are lighted for night play. The facility is designed for soccer tournaments and practice, and is ideal for regional, national, and international tournaments. The San Bernardino Soccer Complex has served as the site for the USYSA Regional Championships, as well as headquarters for State and National Cups.
Discussion
On October 23, 2023, the City received a request from San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to assign the Lease between the City of San Bernardino and San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to World Sports Arena, LLC. Pursuant to Section 25 of the Lease Agreement, the Lease may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the City of San Bernardino.
Roberto Gomide is the founder and CEO of World Sports Arena, LLC, and has managed the day-to-day operations of the San Bernardino Soccer Complex since 2015. In June of 2023, David Elmore, Managing Member of San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, passed away requiring organizational changes within San Bernardino Soccer, LLC. San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, has requested that the Lease be appropriately assigned to Roberto Gomide and World Sports Arena, LLC. The requested Lease Assignment to World Sports Arena, LLC, will not modify the terms of the San Bernardino Soccer Complex Lease Agreement.
Staff recommends that the Mayor and City Council authorize the Lease Assignment from San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to World Sports Arena, LLC. Roberto Gomide and his team have transformed the San Bernardino Soccer Complex into a world class soccer destination.
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This request is consistent with Key Target No. 4 Economic Growth & Development.
The lease assignment aligns with the goals of the City as it assures the continuance of soccer complex operation for public enjoyment.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action of this item. All terms of the original lease will remain in effect.
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, adopt Resolution No. 2024-194, authorizing the City Manager to execute Packet Page. 109
the Lease Assignment Agreement for the San Bernardino Soccer Complex, located at 2500 Pacific Street, San Bernardino, California; assigning the Lease with San Bernardino Soccer, LLC, to World Sports Arena, LLC.

Subject: Acceptance and Approval of Older Californians Nutrition Program Grant Award FY 2024/25 (All Wards)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution No. 2024-195:
1. Authorizing the City Manager to approve a 2024/2025 Budget for year three of a three-year Older Californians Nutrition Program grant through the Department of Aging and Adult Services – Public Guardian (DAAS-PG); and
2. Authorizing the City Manager to accept the 2024/2025 Congregate Meal Program Grant Budget in the amount of $392,541; and

Packet Page. 155
Background
The City of San Bernardino provides a senior nutrition program for seniors in the City, 60 years of age and older, providing lunch and dinner meals, Monday-Friday, yearround.
During FY 2023/24, the Older Californian Nutrition Program served 65,399 meals for a daily average of 266 individual clients, at six (6) nutrition sites: 5th Street Senior Center, Perris Hill Senior Center, Hernandez Community Center, Lytle Creek Community Center, New Hope Family Life Center, and Highland Senior Center.
These meals were served both in in-person dine-in and grab-n-go style. The food is prepared in the main kitchen at the 5th Street Senior Center and delivered to the five other sites in hot and cold containers.
Discussion
The Older Californian Nutrition Program (formerly the Senior Nutrition Program) is supported by funding received from the County of San Bernardino Department of Aging and Adult Services – Public Guardian (DAAS-PG, formerly DAAS) through County Contract No. 22-666. On July 10, 2024, the County of San Bernardino DAASPG issued an e-mail of Budget Approval (County of San Bernardino Nutrition Services Congregate/Home Delivered Meal Program Budget, City of San Bernardino IIIC 2024-25) to the City of San Bernardino, approving $392,541 for FY2024-25 to provide Elderly (Older Californians) Nutrition Program Services. This is an increase from the original first year allocation of $369,749 and within the original annual contract agreement. This is the third (3rd) year of the three (3) year grant cycle with Fiscal Year beginning July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2025. The Program is expected to serve at least 52,300 total annual meals at the six nutrition sites.
At the June 15, 2022, MCC Meeting, the Mayor and City Council approved RFQ No:
F-22-53 for Food Supplies and Consumable Products for Senior Nutrition Center, and it was determined that Sysco Foods and Hollandia Dairy, Inc. were the best bidders.
It was recommended in the execution of the three (3) year agreement to issue annual purchase orders for the food vendors with an option of three (3) additional one (1) year renewals and issue the annual purchase order for nutrition consulting services (Amendment No. 2). We are recommending the City Council to approve extending the term of the master agreement of each food vendor by one year to meet proposed meal needs and extending the term of the master agreement of the required dietician services an additional 5% due to rising costs. Council approvals in years one (FY2022/2023) and two (FY2023/2024), as noted in the Synopsis of Previous Council Actions, and two Council approvals included these three vendors.
These proposed actions will allow the Older Californian Nutrition Program to continue to deliver without delay the proposed FY 2024/2025 nutritional services to the City’s Packet Page. 156
senior population. FY2024/2025 is the third of the three one-year renewals. Staff recommends approval for the issuance of purchase orders as follows. Additionally, due to rising food costs, Staff also recommends approval of a *10% Contingency ($21,830) included for increased number of meals served and unpredictable inflationary cost increases:
Vendor Cost Contingency Total
Sysco Food $ 196,000.00 $ 19,600.00 $ 215,600.00
Hollandia Dairy $ 22,300.00 $ 2,230.00 $ 24,530.00
Consulting Health Nutrition Services $ 18,700.00
2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
This proposal aligns with Goal No. 1: Financial Stability by securing a long-term revenue source and creating a framework for spending decisions, Goal No. 2: Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community by developing and implementing a community engagement plan, and Goal No. 3: Improved Quality of Life by providing low-cost nutritious meals for the senior aged population.
Fiscal Impact
The amount of grant funding currently available to the City from the County for FY 2024/25 is $ 392,541. Acceptance of the grant would entail an amendment to the FY 2024/25 adopted budget consistent with the attached City of San Bernardino Parks and Recreation Department FY 2024/25 Program Budget Detail Sheet (Project #: 0513 Sr.
Nutrition Grant 2024-25), which includes City cash in the amount of $89,427 (covers $1645 for education/training from Nutritionist and $150,092 for anticipated food costs and an additional 10% contingency of $21,830 for unforeseen meal and food cost increases less the $85,000 from adopted FY 2024/25 Adopted budget) and in-kind in the amount of $96,042 (covers personnel costs for volunteers and utilities).
Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution No. 2024-195:
1. Authorizing the City Manager to approve a 2024/2025 Budget for year three of a three-year Older Californians Nutrition Program grant through the Department of Aging and Adult Services – Public Guardian (DAAS-PG); and
2. Authorizing the City Manager to accept the 2024/2025 Congregate Meal Program Grant Budget in the amount of $392,541; and

CONSENT CALENDAR
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: September 4, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Rochelle Clayton, Acting City Manager;
Lynn Merrill, Director of Public Works, Operations and
Maintenance
Department: Public Works
Subject: Recommendation to Increase the Construction
Contingency and Construction Management Budget
for Nicholson Park Improvements Project. (Ward 6)
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California adopt Resolution 2024-197:
1. Authorizing the Director of Finance and Management Services to amend the FY 2024/25 CIP Budget with an additional $745,128 for the Nicholson Park Improvements Project using the Measure S fund balance; and
2. Authorizing the Director of Finance and Management Services to increase the construction contingency and construction management budget from $1,290,000 to the total amount of $2,139,564.87; and
3. Authorizing the City Manager or designee to expend the contingency fund, if necessary, to complete the project.
Executive Summary:
The City of San Bernardino has the opportunity to enhance Nicholson Park by adding picnic shelters, shade sails/covers, and steel trellis improvements, totaling $745,127.48, through a change order to the existing construction agreement with Urban Habitat. Initially, only the base bid was awarded due to funding limitations; however, an additional $1,746,044.73 has since been allocated to the project from CDBG funding sources. This increase in funding allows for the completion of the previously omitted items. Staff recommends allocating an additional $745,128 from Measure S funds to replenish the contingency used for the change order additive alternate scope of work.

Background
Nicholson Neighborhood Park, located at 2737 West 2nd Street, is a City-owned 9.52- acre park facility that includes recreational amenities and a community center building.
The recreational area of the park currently consists of two baseball diamonds with a concession/score keeper area (restroom included), a community garden, outdoor basketball court, picnic shelter, 10 picnic tables, two barbeque grills, a playground area, restrooms, and parking lot. While the park area continues to see some general community use, the community center building has been closed for programming for several years due to financial challenges.
Over the past several years, Nicholson Neighborhood Park has become a target for vandalism due to the lack of programmed activities at the site. Many of the supporting outbuildings, irrigation, and lighting systems have been damaged beyond repair.
During preparation of the FY 2020/21 Capital Improvement Program (CIP), staff recommended rehabilitation of the park to return the property to a safe and attractive condition. Restoration of the park and its amenities will assist in drawing positive activities back to the area and restore recreational opportunities for the surrounding neighborhood.
On June 24, 2020, the Mayor and City Council approved Resolution No. 2020-128, which adopted the City’s Annual Operating Budget for Fiscal Year 2020/21. This budget included funding for the Nicholson Neighborhood Park Improvements project (CIP Project PR21-006). The project initially received $1,000,000 from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and $186,833.31 from Meadowbrook Insurance Claim funds, giving the project a total budget of $1,336,833.31.
On February 2, 2022, Resolution 2022-26 was adopted, allocating an additional $8,850,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to complete the project. On April 17, 2024, an additional $1,746,044.73 was reallocated to Nicholson Park as part of amendments to the Community Development Block Grants 2023-2024 and 2020-21 Annual Action Plans.
For the design of the park, an agreement was made with RHA Landscape Architects – Planners, Inc. on March 3, 2021, for $215,295. This agreement was amended on August 3, 2022 (Amendment No. 1) to expand the scope of services for an additional $197,250. Another amendment was approved on August 2, 2023 (Amendment No. 2) to include more feedback in the design, costing an additional $47,300. The total design budget for Nicholson Park is $459,845.
On December 6, 2023, the City of San Bernardino awarded a construction contract to Urban Habitat for $8,147,197.56 to complete the base bid items for the Nicholson Neighborhood Park Improvements project. On the same day, an additional $1,290,000 was approved for construction contingencies and construction management costs.
Subsequently, on February 21, 2024, a contract for construction management and inspection services was awarded to Z&K Consultants for $471,876, with an extra $47,187 allocated for professional services contingencies, reducing the original $1,290,000 contingency fund to $770,937.
Packet Page. 325
As part of the December 6, 2023, approvals, the Mayor and City Council authorized the City Manager, or their designee, to execute all necessary documents with Urban Habitat and Z&K Consultants, including any required change orders. The City Manager was also authorized to expend the contingency fund as needed to ensure the completion of the project. Therefore, the City Manager has the authority to manage the project’s approved budget and contractual adjustments without requirement of an amendment or additional approval authority.
The following table details the funding and budget balance:
Discussion
Construction is currently underway for the Nicholson Park Improvements Project.
Due to funding limitations at the time of award, only the base bid was awarded to Urban Habitat for construction. Since then, additional funding has been allocated to the project in the amount of $1,746,044.73 from CDBG funding sources. As a result, the City has the opportunity to construct the additive alternative items that were previously omitted from the construction agreement.
There are also pending change orders for the Nicholson Park project totaling $104,436.87 and cover various essential adjustments. Key items include $49,502.53 for a sewer tie-in, $24,389.06 for orchard irrigation, and $20,391.71 for orchard fencing. Additionally, smaller change orders address light pole removal, unforeseen CMU work, trimming bushes, and constructing CMU dugouts. These changes are necessary to ensure the project’s successful completion and address unexpected needs that have arisen during construction. Staff will review the existing change orders and utilize the existing ARPA funding as needed.

CDBG $1,000,000.00

Packet Page. 326
Staff also recommends utilizing available contingency ARPA funding to construct picnic shelters, shade sails/covers, and steel trellis improvements as listed in the additive alternative bid schedule that was previously advertised on PlanetBids. The cost of these additional change order items is $745,127.48. An additional $745,128 is requested from the Measure S Fund to cover any additional future costs.

Please note that staff shall bring a request to Mayor and City Council for reallocation of ARPA funding to another Community Center project at Encanto Park.
The project’s updated costs include expenses for RHA Architect ($459,845.00), Urban Habitat ($8,147,197.56), and other associated vendors, with a contingency of $770,937.00 and total change orders amounting to $104,436.87.
