If coverage is written on a claims-made 20

basis, the retroactive date shall precede the effective date of the initial Agreement and continuous coverage will be maintained or an extended reporting period will be exercised for a period of at least three (3) years from termination or expiration of this Agreement.

For all policies of Commercial General Liability insurance, Consultant shall provide endorsements in the form of ISO CG 20 10 10 01 (or endorsements providing the exact same coverage) to effectuate this requirement.

Page 4 ends

4 55452.01100\31193624.5
other insurance, deductible, or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, or volunteers shall not contribute with this primary insurance. Policies shall contain or be endorsed to contain such provisions.

3.2.12.7 Waiver of Subrogation. All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss.

3.2.12.8 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any
deductible or self-insured retention greater than $5,000 must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

The Consultant, concurrently with the execution of the Agreement, and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness thereof, shall deliver either certified copies of the required policies, or original certificates on forms approved by the City, together with all endorsements affecting each policy.

Required insurance policies shall not be in compliance if they include any limiting provision or endorsement that has not been submitted to the City for approval. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City. If such coverage is cancelled or reduced and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, Consultant shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice of such cancellation or reduction of coverage, file with the City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or companies.

3.2.12.10 Failure to Maintain Coverage. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Consultant or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Consultant payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement effective upon notice.

3.2.12.11 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A- VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

3.2.12.12 Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel).

Consultant acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City 22

Page 5 ends

5 55452.01100\31193624.5
to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

3.2.12.13 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Appendix are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

3.2.12.14 Insurance for Subconsultants. Consultant shall include all subconsultants engaged in any work for Consultant relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Consultant's policies, or the Consultant shall be responsible for causing subconsultants to purchase the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of these Insurance Requirements, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers as additional insureds to the subconsultant's policies.

All policies of Commercial General Liability insurance provided by Consultant’s subconsultants performing work relating to this Agreement shall be endorsed to name the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds using endorsement form ISO CG 20 38 04 13 or an endorsement providing equivalent coverage.

Consultant shall not allow any subconsultant to commence work on any subcontract relating to this Agreement until it has received satisfactory evidence of subconsultant’s compliance with all insurance requirements under this Agreement, to the extent applicable. The Consultant shall provide satisfactory evidence of compliance with this section upon request of the City.

2. Summary
a) Project Understanding and Scope of Work
The project would develop seven single–family detached dwellings on seven existing vacant lots across 1.58 acres at 320–326 La Rambla and 312–314 Boca del Canon. The project would create public easements for public beach access and a public lookout area, as well as a lot line adjustment and abandonment of a “paper” street at the end of La Rambla. The project site has a General Plan land use designation of Residential Low Density (RL) and is zoned RL. A Notice of Preparation (NOP) was distributed on November 14, 2022, and a public scoping meeting was held on November 18, 2022. Applicant’s environmental consultant will prepare draft and final CEQA technical studies and the EIR documents required for environmental clearance under CEQA. The following approach demonstrates Kimley–Horn’s experience on peer reviewing and completing similar types of projects to satisfy environmental clearance and CEQA requirements for the project.

Task 1 – Project Kickoff and Management
Heidi Rous and Jessie Fan will attend one in–person kick–off meeting (up to one hour) with City staff to initiate the project and to receive all necessary background data, technical studies, and environmental documents. Kimley-Horn will review the Project Description, NOP, public scoping meeting materials, and public comments received on the NOP.

Delive rables:

Deliverables will be transmitted electronically unless otherwise noted x Two (2) Kimley-Horn staff participation in in–person Kick–Off Meeting x Review of Project Description, NOP, public scoping meeting materials, and public comments received on the NOP Task 2 – Peer Review Technical Studies
Kimley-Horn anticipates that the City will receive, review, and forward the draft technical studies from the applicant to Kimley-Horn for review and comment. Kimley-Horn will peer review the technical studies to determine if the technical studies are comprehensive and adequate to address the impacts in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Appendix G thresholds. Kimley-Horn assumes that the technical studies will be provided in Microsoft Word format with any figures and attachments in PDF format, and will provide conclusions, impact significance determinations, and mitigation measures, as needed. It is Kimley–Horn’s understanding that we will generally receive technical studies that have undergone appropriate levels of internal QC/QAreviews by the performing consultants, and that Kimley-Horn is to perform a comprehensive peer review focusing on whether the reports specifically include the following:
x Clear presentation of data, methods, and conclusions, suitable for City decision–makers, reviewing/responsible agencies, the public, and other stakeholders;
x Defensible analyses and conclusions, and feasible mitigation measures and avoidance strategies supported by documented evidence; x Appropriately conservative assumptions, estimates, and calculations which serve the basis of the impact analyses, in line with the needs of the most impactful aspect of project implementation; and x Use of consistent terms, assumptions, and narratives between the various reports.

Kimley-Horn will conduct one (1) review cycle for each technical study requested to be reviewed. If Kimley-Horn determines that revisions are necessary for the technical studies, Kimley-Horn will provide a redline version of the technical studies in Microsoft Word back to the City to transmit to the applicant’s consultant. Kimley-Horn will provide one (1) review of the revised technical studies to confirm that all edits are completed. If an additional review cycle is needed, Kimley-Horn will provide an additional fee and scope to the City for approval. Based on correspondence with the City, Kimley-Horn will review the following technical studies:
x Air Quality, Energy, and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions Impact Analysis
x General Biological Assessment
x Phase I Cultural Resources Assessment
x Preliminary Geotechnical Evaluation Report
x Wave Runup and Coastal Hazard Study
Kimley>>> Horn 34
City of San Clemente | EVRS96002.2023 6
x Phase I Paleontological Assessment
x Noise and Vibration Impact Analysis
x PSU Correspondence
x Traffic Assessment Memorandum
x Water Quality Master Plans
If needed, Kimley-Horn will, with City concurrenceand assistance, interface with the applicant’s consultants to verify that the edits are appropriately implemented by the original authors. Kimley-Horn has allocated up to four (4) hours of teleconference calls to resolve outstanding environmental issues raised in Kimley-Horn'sreview of the draft technical studies with the applicant’s consultants. If additional time is needed, Kimley-Horn will provide an additional scope and fee to the City for approval.

Delive rables:
x One (1) review cycle of each draft technical study, inclusive of redline edits and margin comments in Microsoft Word x One (1) review cycle of each revised technical study to confirm all edits are implemented and/or otherwise resolved to our satisfaction x Up to four (4) hours of teleconference calls to resolve outstanding environmental issues Task 3 – Peer Review Draft Environmental Impact Report
Kimley-Horn anticipates that the City will receive, review, and forward the Administrative Draft EIR in Microsoft Word format from the applicant to Kimley-Horn for review and comment. Kimley-Horn will peer review the Administrative Draft EIR to verify the EIR is accurate, complete, and legally adequate. Kimley-Horn assumes that the Project Description will be consistent between the technical studies and the Draft EIR. KimleyHorn will make the necessary revisions to the Administrative Draft EIR in redline or margin comments. Similar to our approach for review of the technical studies, Kimley-Horn assumes that the Administrative Draft EIR will have undergone appropriate levels of internal QC/QAreviews.

Therefore, Kimley-Horn will provide one (1) round of review of the Administrative Draft EIR and will provide any additional edits and comments to the City directly. After applicant’s consultant reviews and revises the Administrative Draft EIR, Kimley-Horn will provide one (1) round of review of the Proof Check Draft EIR to verify all comments were addressed and resolvedto Kimley-Horn’s satisfaction. Kimley-Horn is available to help review the City’s Notice of Availability of the Draft EIR and the Notice of Completion, if necessary.

Delive rables:
x One (1) round of review of the Administrative Draft EIR x One (1) round of review of Proof Check Draft EIR
Task 4 – Peer Review Final Environmental Impact Report
Similar to our approach to Task 3 for the Draft EIR, Kimley-Horn will peer review the Administrative Final EIR, which will be provided by applicant’s consultant, and provide one (1) round of review of the Administrative Final EIR and will provide additional edits and comments to the City directly. The budget for reviewing the responses to comments on the Draft EIR will be based on a total number of hours (30) the peer review of the Administrative Final EIR, rather than based on a fixed number of comments or responses. Given the potential scrutiny involved with this project, should the level of comments and responses exceed our estimates, Kimley-Horn will provide an additional fee and scope to the City for approval. After applicant’s consultant reviews and revises the Administrative Final EIR, Kimley-Horn will provide one final review of the Proof Check Final EIR to verify all comments were addressed and resolved to Kimley-Horn’s satisfaction.

Delive rables
x One (1) round of review of the Administrative Final EIR x One (1) round of review of Proof Check Final EIR
Task 5 – Project Meetings and Hearings
Heidi Rous will serve as the project manager responsible for supervision of the Kimley-Horn team and review the documentation compliance with CEQA requirements and guidelines and City CEQA procedures. Project management responsibilities include task scheduling and assignment, contract administration and accounting, and coordination and communications with the City. Heidi will maintain email communications with the City to confirm compliance with the Scope of Work, budget, and schedule, and to disseminate project information in Kimley>>> Horn 35
City of San Clemente | EVRS96002.2023 7
a timely manner. Kimley-Horn assumes, due to the nature of the Scope of Work (e.g., applicant’s consultant will provide revisions, during which Kimley-Horn will have limited activity), up to six (6) one-hour conference calls for two (2) Kimley-Horn staff and City staff to discuss project status and to discuss project-related questions will be required. This task does not include budget for discussions with the applicant’s consultant related to resolving environmental comments that arise during the peer review process (see Task 2 above).

Heidi Rous and Jessie Fanwill attend up to two (2) in-person public hearings (up to two hours each hearing) duringwhich approval of the project would be considered. It is assumed that City will coordinate and facilitate the meetings and that presentation materials describing or illustrating the project will be provided by the applicant, applicant’s consultant, and the City. Kimley-Horn will be available to answer technical questions concerning the CEQA process.

Delive rables:

Deliverables will be transmitted electronically unless otherwise noted. x Participation in up to six (6) one-hour conference calls with City staff for two (2) Kimley-Horn staff x Participation in two (2) in-person public hearings for two (2) Kimley-Horn staff Services Not Included:

Any other services, including but not limited to the following, are not included in this scope of work:

x Attendance at additional meetings and public hearings outside of the ones listed above x Printing and distribution of hard-copy documents
Additional Services:

Any services not specifically provided for in the above scope will be billed as additional services and performed at our then current hourly rates, with City approval. Additional services we can provide include, but are not limited to, the following:

Project Experience
Kimley-Horn provides the City with the local knowledge and responsiveness of a small organization, backed by the depth of resources only a national firm could offer. Today, we are one of the largest engineering, planning, and environmental consulting firms in the United States. Our team members' experience on similar projects within the last five years are shown on the following pages.

County of San Bernardino, Vidal Energy Project EIR Peer Review, San Bernardino County, CA Heidi Rous and Jessie Fan performed a peer review of applicant– provided technical studies and EIR documents. Kimley-Horn also supported the County of San Bernardino through publication of CEQA–related materials. Kimley-Horn was selected based on our experience peer reviewingtechnical studies and preparing CEQA documents within the County of San Bernardino for other development projects. Kimley-Horn is currently peer reviewing the applicant–provided responses to comments on the Draft EIR and Final EIR documents. This project was initiated in February 2022.

Ke y Staff Involved:

Heidi Rous, Jessie Fan, Jessie Barkley, Danielle Millar City of Long Beach, Community Hospital Long Beach Remodel Project IS/MND, Long Beach, CA Heidi Rous, project manager, and Jessie Fan, deputy project manager, are preparing the IS/MND for the remodel of the hospital campus buildings, relocation of acute care services into seismically compliant portions of the hospital buildings, construction of a new central utilities plant, and minor exterior improvements and remodeling to the existing historic hospital building. As part of the project, Kimley-Horn peer reviewed the applicant–provided acoustical report, geotechnical report, historical resource survey, and cultural resource project analysis.

Kimley-Horn prepared air quality, health risk assessment, GHG emissions, energy, low impact development study, and the IS/MND. This project was initiated in July 2021. The project has been put on hold as of October 2021.

City of South Pasadena, Fairview Court Project Categorical Exemption, South Pasadena, CA Jessie Fan managed and prepared the Class 32
Categorical Exemption for the construction of 22,032
square feet of commercial retail uses and 108 residential units, 19 of which would be affordable units. The project would adaptively reuse the historic school administrative office building and auditorium on–site to create a
commercial shell for future tenants. Kimley-Horn peer
reviewed the air quality, GHG emissions, and energy
analysis; transportation study; noise analysis; and
historic resource evaluation. Upon completion of the peer review, Kimley-Horn advised the City that the project
would qualify for a Class 32 Categorical Exemption
rather than the IS/MND that the City requested. KimleyHorn assisted the City with noticing to the County Clerk and State Clearinghouse. This project was approved in September 2022.

c) Legal Challenges
Heidi Rous and Jessie Fan have prepared environmental documents for controversial development projects throughout Southern California.

The proposed project team collectively have provided extensive support to applicants and jurisdictions for litigated environmental documents.

In addition to providing responses to comments, public hearing support, and responses to appeals, the project team has provided expert testimony as it relates to technical analyses provided within the prepared environmental documents. Key members of the proposed project team have also provided strategic input to assist in holding up environmental documents due to legal challenges.

Litigation History
Kimley-Horn and its subsidiaries have provided services in all fifty states and numerous countries. Because of the many and varied projects we have completed, we are subject to various legal proceedings from time to time and in the ordinary course of business.

None of the pending matters, if decided against Kimley-Horn, would have a material impact on our financial statements or impair in any way our ability to serve our clients. Generally, these matters are covered by insurance, and we consider them to be without merit. If you would like to discuss our legal matters in more detail, please contact Kimley-Horn’s General Counsel, Richard Cook, at 919.677.2058.

GUIDELINES
Summary:

In the past, INSECTA has been applied to the City’s sewer system annually, and has been verified as an effective control in reducing pest populations. Before the City Council is the award of a sole source Professional Services Agreement to Golden Bell Products, Inc. to treat sewer manholes with INSECTA Insecticidal Latex Coating for insect control, for an amount not to exceed $70,000 for a two -year period.

Background:

Insects often live in sewer systems, and treatment is necessary to control the population to protect City employees working on the system, and the general public. The Utilities Department has used Golden Bell Products, Inc. for many years under Professional Services Agreements. Their patented method of applying INSECTA Insecticidal Latex Coating to coat sewer manholes it is the only registered product of its type, labeled for use in sewer manholes, and is the only company in California that can distribute/apply this treatment, making them sole source for the process.

Discussion:

Staff has researched, and not witnessed any other treatment, that has been as effective as the Insecta coating process. Golden Bell Products, Inc. has the sole distribution and application rights in the State of California. City Policy Number 201-2-1 “Purchasing Policies & Procedures for Supplies, Materials and Equipment” Section 6.17.2 allows for exemption from the Informal and Formal Bidding Process for “Sole Source” suppliers, which allows for approval of the Professional Services Agreement with Golden Bell Products, Inc. Treatment by Golden Bell Products, Inc. with INSECTA is an ideal method for the City for a variety of reasons including:
· It kills insects, which can stop the spread of disease, and interrupts the breeding cycles eliminating adult and juvenile insects.
· It is a Federal and California State licensed pesticide for sewer manhole insect control. · The product is guaranteed to kill insects for 18 months from the date of application. This helps CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/15/2023

This helps protect the environment with fewer repeat applications. · The product does not evaporate, rub off, or wash away. · Application of the treatment includes informal manhole inspections, and any abnormalities such as backed up/surging manholes or broken manholes lids are reported to the City. · The INSECTA white latex protective coating brightens and cleans manholes making inspections easier.
· The product is used by approximately 60 other cities and agencies within the state of California.
· Golden Bell has provided excellent service to the City in the past.

· Modify and adopt Resolution No. 23-50.
· Continue the Item and direct staff to provide additional information. · Do not adopt Resolution No. 23-50 and discontinue the treatment.

(1) Additional Insured: The City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds with regard to liability and defense of suits or claims arising out of the performance of the Agreement.

Additional Insured Endorsements shall not (1) be

For all policies of Commercial General Liability insurance, Consultant shall provide endorsements in the form of ISO CG 20 10 10 01 (or endorsements providing the exact same coverage) to effectuate this requirement.
(2) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium. (B) Automobile Liability:
(1) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium.

3.2.12.4 Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions):
(A) Cancellation: Required insurance policies shall not be canceled or the coverage reduced until a thirty (30) day written notice of cancellation has been served upon the City except ten (10) days shall be allowed for non-payment of premium.

All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall be primary and any other insurance, deductible, or self-insurance maintained by the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, or volunteers shall not contribute with this primary insurance. Policies shall contain or be endorsed to contain such provisions.

3.2.12.7 Waiver of Subrogation. All policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior 20 15
55452.01100\31193624.5
to a loss. Consultant hereby waives its own right of recovery against the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.

3.2.12.8 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or selfinsured retention greater than $5,000 must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

3.2.12.9 Evidence of Insurance. The Consultant, concurrently with the execution of the Agreement, and as a condition precedent to the effectiveness thereof, shall deliver either certified copies of the required policies, or original certificates on forms approved by the City, together with all endorsements affecting each policy.

At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City.

3.2.12.10 Failure to Maintain Coverage. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Consultant or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Consultant payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement effective upon notice.

3.2.12.11 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A- VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

3.2.12.12 Enforcement of Agreement Provisions (non estoppel).

Consultant acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

3.2.12.13 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or minimum limits contained in this Appendix are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

3.2.12.14 Insurance for Subconsultants. Consultant shall include all subconsultants engaged in any work for Consultant relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Consultant's policies, or the Consultant shall be responsible for causing subconsultants to purchase the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of these Insurance Requirements, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents, and 21 16
55452.01100\31193624.5
volunteers as additional insureds to the subconsultant's policies.

Consultant shall not allow any subconsultant to commence work on any subcontract relating to this Agreement until it has received satisfactory evidence of subconsultant’s compliance with all insurance requirements under this Agreement, to the extent applicable. The Consultant shall provide satisfactory evidence of compliance with this section upon request of the City.

The product comes ready to use and since it is a polymerized product there is no field mixing required, (which is not the case with any additive type of product). Insecta has been tested and applied by Orange County Sanitation Districts and has proven to be effective standing up to the eighteen-month guarantee provided by Golden Bell and the product manufacturer.

Additionally, this product is used and approved by Los Angeles County Sanitation District and approximately 60 other cities and agencies within the state of California.

Over the past 24 years Golden Bell Products has provided this service with minimal price increases. Finally, Golden Bell Products is a local vendor that holds the correct licensing for application of pesticides in sewer manholes. Golden Bell Products is licensed by the California Agricultural Department of Pesticide Regulation. Holding a QAL license with the required categories A, C and N and a Pest Control Business License. Golden Bell carries and maintains all current registrations with all the County Agricultural Commissioners in each of the counties they apply the Insecta pesticide in.

PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) UNDER CLASS 1 (EXISTING FACILITIES, 14 CCR 15301) OF THE CEQA

GUIDELINES
Summary:

Before the City Council is approval of a three-year agreement with Animal Pest Control Services, Inc. of Chino for rodent control on City properties at an annual cost of $34,852.80 plus a $10,000 annual contingency for a three year cost not to exceed $134,558.40. The agreement would also have two optional one year extensions, to be exercised in the City Manager’s discretion.

Background:

The existing rodent control contract expires on June 30, 2023. Staff advertised a request for proposals (RFP) on Planet Bids in May 2023 for these services. Two proposals were received and none were from businesses based in San Clemente. Animal Pest Management Services, Inc. was determined to be the most qualified proposer with an annual cost not to exceed $44,852.80 (including contingency) for a three-year total not to exceed $134,558.40, which is fair and reasonable.

Council Options:
· Adopt Resolution No. 23-51, awarding a Maintenance Services Agreement to Animal Pest Management Services, Inc., authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and finding the project categorically exempt from CEQA.
· Modify and Adopt Resolution No. 23-51.
· Continue the item and direct staff to provide additional information. · Do not adopt Resolution No. 23-51 and discontinue rodent control services of June 30, 2023.

Fiscal Impact:

Yes. The total three-year agreement cost is not to exceed $134,558.80. The annual contract amount not to exceed $44,852.80 is funded from the available budget in Trail Maintenance (Account 001-631 -43888) and Park Maintenance (Account 001-635-43888).

Policies shall contain or be endorsed to contain such provisions.

1.1.5 Waiver of Subrogation. All required policies of Commercial General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance shall specifically allow Contractor or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of recovery against the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors.

1.1.6 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductible or self-insured retention greater than $5,000 must be approved in writing by the City and shall protect the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers in the same manner and to the same extent as they would have been protected had the policy or policies not contained a deductible or self-insured retention.

1.1.7 Evidence of Insurance.

Required insurance policies shall not be in compliance if they include any limiting provision or endorsement that has not been submitted to the City for approval. The certificates and endorsements for each insurance policy shall be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. At least fifteen (15 days) prior to the expiration of any such policy, evidence of insurance showing that such insurance coverage has been renewed or extended shall be filed with the City.

reduction of coverage, file with the City evidence of insurance showing that the required insurance has been reinstated or has been provided through another insurance company or companies.

1.1.8 Failure to Maintain Coverage. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Contract does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced immediately so as to avoid a lapse in the required coverage, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Contractor or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Contractor payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement.

1.1.9 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A-:VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

1.1.10 Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposed no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

1.1.11 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or limits contained in this section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

1.1.12 Insurance for Subcontractors. Contractor shall include all subcontractors engaged in any work for Contractor relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Contractor’s policies, or the Contractor shall be responsible for causing subcontractors to purchase the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of these Insurance Requirements, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers as Additional Insureds to the subcontractor’s policies. All policies of Commercial General Liability insurance provided by Contractor’s subcontractors performing work relating to this Agreement shall be endorsed to name the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds using endorsement form ISO CG 20 38 04 13 or an endorsement providing equivalent coverage. Contractor shall not allow any subcontractor to commence work until it has received satisfactory evidence of subcontractor’s compliance with all insurance requirements under this Agreement, to the extent applicable. The Contractor shall provide satisfactory evidence of compliance with this section upon request of the City. 36 55452.01100\31090125.5 35 of 40 06/01/2023

PERFORMANCE BOND
KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS:

THAT WHEREAS, the City of San Clemente (hereinafter referred to as “City”) has awarded to ____________________________________________________, (hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor”) an agreement for ___________________________________________________ (hereinafter referred to as the “Project”).

WHEREAS, the work to be performed by the Contractor is more particularly set forth in the Contract Documents for the Project dated ________________, (hereinafter referred to as “Contract Documents”), the terms and conditions of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor is required by said Contract Documents to perform the terms thereof and to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of said Contract Documents.

NOW, THEREFORE, we, _______________________________________________________, the undersigned Contractor and __________________________________________________ as Surety, a corporation organized and duly authorized to transact business under the laws of the State of California, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the sum of ___________________________________________________________________ DOLLARS and _____________________________ CENTS ($_________________________), said sum being not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the total amount of the Contract, for which amount well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning; and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including, if provided as part of the Contract Documents, the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the City, its officers and agents, as stipulated in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the guarantee obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship the above obligation in penal sum thereof shall remain in full force and effect. However, anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of Contractor remains. Nothing herein shall limit the City’s rights or the Contractor or Surety’s obligations under the Contract Documents, law or equity, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15. 38 55452.01100\31090125.5 37 of 40 06/01/2023
c:\users\fuentesc\desktop\legistar original 6.20\23-329 att 1.docx 4858-6237-8602 v1
Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the Contract Documents, the Surety shall remedy the default pursuant to the Contract Documents, or shall promptly, at the City’s option:
(1) Take over and complete the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents; or
(2) Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a contract between such bidder, the Surety and the City, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract Documents and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents; or (3) Permit the City to complete the Project in any manner consistent with California law and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract Documents and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.

Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Contractor.

Surety shall not utilize Contractor in completing the Project nor shall Surety accept a bid from Contractor for completion of the Project if the City, when declaring the Contractor in default, notifies Surety of the City’s objection to Contractor’s further participation in the completion of the Project.

The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project and the provisions of Section 2819 and 2845 of the California Civil Code. Without limiting the foregoing, such changes, extensions of time and alterations or additions shall include, but are not limited to, changes or alterations to the Contract Documents (including, without limitation, an increase in the total dollar amount of the Contract Documents), extensions of time, or modifications of the time, terms, or conditions of payment to the Contractor. 39 55452.01100\31090125.5 38 of 40 06/01/2023

Best's rating of no less than A-:VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

1.1.10 Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposed no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS:

THAT WHEREAS, the City of San Clemente (hereinafter referred to as “City”) has awarded to ____________________________________________________, (hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor”) an agreement for ___________________________________________________ (hereinafter referred to as the “Project”).

WHEREAS, the work to be performed by the Contractor is more particularly set forth in the Contract Documents for the Project dated ________________, (hereinafter referred to as “Contract Documents”), the terms and conditions of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor is required by said Contract Documents to perform the terms thereof and to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of said Contract Documents.

NOW, THEREFORE, we, _______________________________________________________, the undersigned Contractor and __________________________________________________ as Surety, a corporation organized and duly authorized to transact business under the laws of the State of California, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the sum of ___________________________________________________________________ DOLLARS and _____________________________ CENTS ($_________________________), said sum being not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the total amount of the Contract, for which amount well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning; and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including, if provided as part of the Contract Documents, the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the City, its officers and agents, as stipulated in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the guarantee obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship the above obligation in penal sum thereof shall remain in full force and effect. However, anything in this paragraph to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of Contractor remains. Nothing herein shall limit the City’s rights or the Contractor or Surety’s obligations under the Contract Documents, law or equity, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15.

Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the Contract Documents, the Surety shall remedy the default pursuant to the Contract Documents, or shall promptly, at the City’s option:

4884-2011-9402 v1
(1) Take over and complete the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents; or
(2) Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a contract between such bidder, the Surety and the City, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract Documents and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents; or (3) Permit the City to complete the Project in any manner consistent with California law and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract Documents and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.

Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Contractor.

Surety shall not utilize Contractor in completing the Project nor shall Surety accept a bid from Contractor for completion of the Project if the City, when declaring the Contractor in default, notifies Surety of the City’s objection to Contractor’s further participation in the completion of the Project.

The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project and the provisions of Section 2819 and 2845 of the California Civil Code. Without limiting the foregoing, such changes, extensions of time and alterations or additions shall include, but are not limited to, changes or alterations to the Contract Documents (including, without limitation, an increase in the total dollar amount of the Contract Documents), extensions of time, or modifications of the time, terms, or conditions of payment to the Contractor. 39 55452.01100\31090125.5 38 of 43 06/05/2023

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AWARDING A MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT

TO POWERCLEAN FOR DOWNTOWN PRESSURE WASHING, AUTHORIZING THE CITY

MANAGER TO EXECUTE A THREE YEAR AGREEMENT WITH TWO OPTION ONE YEAR RENEWALS AT A COST OF $66,950 ANNUALLY AND FINDING THE PROJECT

CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) UNDER CLASS 1 (EXISTING FACILITIES, 14 CCR 15301) OF THE CEQA GUIDELINES Summary:

Before the City Council is the award of a three-year agreement with Powerclean for downtown (TZone) monthly pressure washing with an annual cost of $66,950 and a total three year agreement cost of $200,850, with two additional one-year optional renewals to be exercised in the City Manager’s discretion. If both options are exercised, the five year agreement would cost a total of $334,750.

Background:

The existing downtown pressure washing contract expires on June 30, 2023. Staff advertised request for proposals (RFP) on Planet Bids in May 2023 for these services. Four proposals were received and Powerclean was determined to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with an annual cost of $66,950 for a three-year total of $200,850. Powerclean is a sole proprietorship owned by Dave Ausmus, located in Fallbrook. No responsive bids were received from San Clemente based businesses.

While a lower bid was received from Alert Power Washing with a bid proposal of $54,985 annually and $164,955 for the three year agreement term, the bid was not responsive. Alert Power Washing did not include references, an organizational chart or work plan, which rendered their proposal incomplete. Powerclean was the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Council Options:
· Adopt Resolution No. 23-54, awarding the Maintenance Services Agreement to Powerclean, authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and finding the project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
· Adopt Resolution No. 23-54 with modifications.
· Continue the Item and direct staff to provide additional information.

Meeting Date: 6/20/2023 Agenda Item: 7L
· Do not adopt the resolution and discontinue monthly pressure washing services.

Fiscal Impact:

Yes. The total three-year agreement cost is $200,850. If both optional one-year renewals are exercised, the five year agreement would cost a total of $334,750. The annual contract amount of $66,950 is funded from the available fund balance in the Streetscapes Fund (Account 001-634- 43470).

Environmental Review/Analysis:

Staff recommends that the City Council determine this project to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Class 1 (Existing Facilities, 14 CCR section 15301) of the State CEQA Guidelines.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation

No further payments shall be deemed due or will be made under this Agreement until any replacement bonds required by this Section are accepted by the City. To the extent, if any, that the total compensation is increased in accordance with the Agreement, the Contractor shall, upon request of the City, cause the amount of the bonds to be increased accordingly and shall promptly deliver satisfactory evidence of such increase to the City. To the extent available, the bonds shall further provide that no change or alteration of the Agreement (including, without limitation, an increase in the total compensation, as referred to above), extensions of time, or modifications of the time, terms, or conditions of payment to the 6 55452.01100\31090125.5 5 of 32 06/01/2023

In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement.

1.1.9 Acceptability of Insurers. Each such policy shall be from a company or companies with a current A.M. Best's rating of no less than A- VII and authorized to transact business of insurance in the State of California, or otherwise allowed to place insurance through surplus line brokers under applicable provisions of the California Insurance Code or any federal law.

1.1.10 Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non estoppel). Contractor acknowledges and agrees that actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposed no additional obligation on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.

1.1.11 Requirements Not Limiting. Requirement of specific coverage or limits contained in this section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits, or other requirement, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.

1.1.12 Insurance for Subcontractors. Contractor shall include all subcontractors engaged in any work for Contractor relating to this Agreement as additional insureds under the Contractor’s policies, or the Contractor shall be responsible for causing subcontractors to purchase the appropriate insurance in compliance with the terms of these Insurance Requirements, including adding the City, its officials, officers, employees, agents and volunteers as Additional Insureds to the subcontractor’s policies.

WHEREAS, the work to be performed by the Contractor is more particularly set forth in the Contract Documents for the Project dated ________________, (hereinafter referred to as “Contract Documents”), the terms and conditions of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor is required by said Contract Documents to perform the terms thereof and to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of said Contract Documents.

CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION AWARDING A MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT

TO PRIORITY LANDSCAPE SERVICES, LLC FOR LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE OF CITY PARKS WEST OF INTERSTATE 5, AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A THREE

YEAR AGREEMENT WITH TWO OPTIONAL ONE YEAR EXTENSION FOR A NOT TO EXCEED ANNUAL CONTRACT PRICE OF $602,000, AND FINDING THE PROJECT CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) UNDER CLASS 1 (EXISTING FACILITIES, 14 CCR 15301) OF THE CEQA GUIDELINES Summary:

Before the City Council is approval of a three-year agreement with Priority Landscape Services, LLC of Anaheim for City Park maintenance west of Interstate 5 with an annual cost of $477,000 plus a $125,000 annual contingency for a total three year cost not to exceed $1,806,000. The agreement would also have two optional one year extensions, to be exercised in the City Manager’s discretion.

Background:

The Public Works Department, Maintenance Services Division divided the parks east and west of the Interstate 5 in 2018 due to concerns with available resources to provide timely maintenance coverage of all parks and staffing City sponsored special events by a single contractor. Colt’s Landscape, Inc. currently has four contracts with the City to include maintenance of parks east of I-5, parks west of I-5, beaches, pier and beach accesses as well as streetscapes. The existing landscape maintenance agreement for parks west of I-5 contract expires on June 30, 2023.

Staff advertised request for proposals (RFP) on Planet Bids in May 2023 for these services. Six proposals were received and evaluated by staff following the nine criteria in the RFP. No proposals were received from business located in San Clemente. Colt’s Landscape, Inc. was the apparent low bidder with a proposal for $436,713 annually and $1,685,139, with supplemental services, for the three year contract term. However, Staff believes that the bid is non-responsive and/or the bidder could be non-responsible given the volume of work to be covered. Staff is concerned with the ability of Colt’s Landscape, Inc. to provide timely trash and landscape maintenance throughout the entire City. This was discussed with Colt’s Landscape, Inc., who admitted that they would have to pull from other contract staff to accomplish certain tasks for this contract. This would not be acceptable to the City and produces a non-responsive bid. Colt’s limited resources will impact their ability to perform timely landscape maintenance of all City properties, which also supports a finding of nonresponsibility for this particular contract.

Priority Landscape Services was the second lowest bidder at $477,000 annual base bid and $1,806,000 for the three year contract term and the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/15/2023

Meeting Date: 6/20/2023 Agenda Item: 7M
$1,806,000 for the three year contract term and the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Priority Landscape Services previously held the contract for landscape maintenance of City properties east of the I-5 for five years, ending in June 2022, and performed above the expectations of the contract during that time.

Council Options:
· Adopt Resolution No. 23-55, awarding a Maintenance Services Agreement to Priority Landscape Services, LLC, authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and finding the project categorically exempt from CEQA.
· Modify and Adopt Resolution No. 23-55.
· Continue the Item and direct staff to provide additional information. · Do not adopt Resolution No. 23-55 and discontinue maintenance services for parks west of the I-5 as of June 30, 2023.

Fiscal Impact:

Yes. The total three-year agreement cost is not to exceed $1,806,000. The annual not to exceed contract amount of $602,000 is funded from the available fund balance in the Streetscapes Fund (Account 001-635-43425).

Environmental Review/Analysis:

Staff recommends that the City Council determine this project to be categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Class 1 (Existing Facilities, 14 CCR section 15301) of the State CEQA Guidelines.

Recommended Actions:

Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 23-55, which would:

1. Determine that this project is categorically exempt from CEQA under Class 1 (Existing Facilities, 14 CCR section 15301) of the State CEQA Guidelines.

2. Award a Maintenance Services Agreement for Landscape Maintenance of City Properties West of the I-5 to Priority Landscape Services, LLC for a three-year contract term with the option of two additional one-year extensions for a potential total agreement term of five years.

3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a Maintenance Services Agreement with Priority Landscape Services, LLC for a not to exceed annual contract price of $477,000, plus an annual contingency of $125,000, for a total not to exceed annual amount of $602,000 per year for a three-year contract term with the option of two additional one-year extensions to be exercised in the City Manager’s discretion.
