National Mosquito Control
Awareness Week
W
HEREAS, the American Mosquito Control Association has been dedicated to preserving public health and well-being through safe, environmentally sound mosquito control programs since 1935; and W
HEREAS, mosquitoes are not only a nuisance but also capable of transmitting serious diseases including West Nile virus, dengue fever, Zika virus, chikungunya, and others; and
W
HEREAS, in 2025, Los Angeles County communities reported eight locally acquired dengue cases and over 225 detections of West Nile Virus activity, highlighting the importance of proactive mosquito control and community awareness; and

HEREAS, the presence of mosquitoes negatively affects quality of life by limiting outdoor activities, decreasing enjoyment of parks and recreational areas, hindering outdoor work, and reducing property values; and
W
HEREAS, the San Gabriel Valley Mosquito & Vector Control District works in partnership with local communities, including the City of San Dimas, to educate residents, eliminate mosquito breeding sources, and prevent mosquito-borne diseases; and
W
HEREAS, the proactive efforts of local vector control programs are vital to protecting public health, especially as climate conditions, urbanization, and international travel contribute to the spread of mosquito-borne illnesses.

CITY OF SAN DIMAS
Background
The City of San Dimas Community Development Department is committed to overseeing the goals and actions in the efforts to prevent and combat homelessness and to preserve the quality of life for all of San Dimas residents.
Plan to Prevent and Combat Homelessness – Measure H Funding In 2017 city staff filed an application to the County of Los Angeles to develop a City plan to prevent and combat homelessness. Through the combined efforts of City Staff, LA Sheriff Dept., Los Angeles Homeless Initiative, San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, and Homeless Services Providers, the City of San Dimas created the goals and actions as outlined in the Plan to Prevent and Combat Homelessness (“Homeless Plan”). The plan was approved by Council June 12, 2018 » Goal 1: Better Understanding the Needs of San Dimas’ Homeless Population » Goal 2: Ensure all people experiencing Homelessness in San Dimas Are Entered Into the Regional Coordinated Entry System (CES)
» Goal 3: Expand and Improve Immediate Housing Solutions » Goal 4: Expand Opportunities for Employment and Workforce Development » Goal 5: Explore Options for Preservation of Existing Affordable Housing The period of time the plan covered was from July 1, 2018 – June 30, 2021
CITY OF SAN DIMAS
Background
In September 2021, the San Gabriel Valley Consortium on Homelessness along with multiple stakeholders prepared an Addendum to the Homeless Plan with the intent to provide actionable steps and supportive services that could help the City in further implementation of its Homelessness Response Plan. Strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats were identified along with an assessment of goals set forth in the plan.
Goal #1 – Better understanding the needs of San Dimas’ homeless population “The City has done some initial work on this goal and can continue to advance its efforts in providing education and building community support to further advance these goals.” Goal #2 – Ensure all people experience homelessness in San Dimas are entered into regional Coordinated Entry System
“Overall, it seems that collaboration with the CES lead (USHS) and partners are effectively achieving the outcome of this goal.”
CITY OF SAN DIMAS
Background
Goal #3 – Expand and improve immediate housing solutions “The City, through USHS, has successfully used hotel vouchers and CES referrals to provide short term housing options, the City would benefit from more consistent bridge housing options for individuals, families, and vehicular homeless”
Goal #4 – Expand opportunities for employment and workforce employment “Staff training has been effective, and staff understands the benefits referral process. COVID and the lack of housing stability has made it difficult to connect clients to employment opportunities. The City should continue to work with key stakeholders to increase housing stability options and connect clients with opportunities to increase their income.”
Goal #5 – Explore options for preservation of existing affordable housing “As the City seeks to preserve their affordable housing stock, the need for affordable housing development that is in line with their housing element is imperative to prevent homelessness for their working poor, who are at risk of homelessness.”

CONSENT ITEMS COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Receive Report and Discuss the
Management of the Community Forest
The Council discussed the management and
expansion of San Dimas' urban forest. It was
noted by a member of the public that the
city's tree planting history, includes 2,200
trees planted from 2006 to 2014 at a rate of
200-225 per year. The current plan aims to
plant 60 trees annually, with 30 being new.
The city maintains 8,685 trees worth $40.48
million. Challenges include resident
objections to tree planting in front yard
easements and infrastructure issues.
Proposed solutions include increasing the
budget to $20,000-$30,000, using Metro
funds, and creating an endowment for tree
maintenance. The council agreed to continue
the discussion at a future study session.
Council requested additional analysis and
materials for the follow-up discussion:
• Provide additional analysis and
materials for that follow-up discussion,
including:
• Maps and data on identified
planting opportunities (the 43
street segments / 32 street

“beams”) and where vacancies exist.
• Feasibility analysis for
additional planting (utilities,
easements, ADA, irrigation,
resident acceptance).
• Exploration of areas with low
tree canopy and potential
“heat island” conditions,
especially along streets like
Cypress and in neighborhoods
with fewer trees.
• Budget and funding context:
• Historic council budget
additions over the last
decade for urban forest
expansion versus
realized total costs.
• Clarification of parcel
tax vs. general fund
subsidy and what’s
driving the deficit
(contracts, water,
electricity).
• Estimated watering
costs for community
trees (coordination with
Golden State Water).
• How Metro (Gold Line)
funds for
tree/landscape
mitigation could be
used to support
planting, rather than
drawing from the
General Fund.
• Estimates of lifetime costs and
benefits per tree (planting,
pruning, hardscape repair vs.
environmental/health benefits).
Council also gave clear policy-leaning
direction (for staff to plan within), even though
it was not adopted as a formal policy yet:
• Do not resume planting trees in
front-yard easements without resident
consent; the Council expressed broad
opposition to “forcing” trees on
unwilling property owners.
Approve Minutes of the May 12, 2026 City Council Meeting Page 3 For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
• Be open to expanding the urban
forest, but in a fiscally responsible
way, prioritizing:
• Locations where lifetime costs
are lower (e.g., minimal
hardscape impact).
• Areas with significant canopy
gaps and higher heat impacts.
• Explore creative options such as:
• An endowment model to fund
lifecycle maintenance of trees.
• An “adopt a tree” / “plant a
tree” program where residents
can voluntarily fund or co-fund
trees in front of their homes.
The meeting was adjourned at 7:00 PM.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
It is the policy of the City of San Dimas to invest public funds in a manner that will provide an optimal combination of security and investment return while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to all State and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.
The priority objectives of the City’s investment activities are as follows: Safety, liquidity and returns.
The City’s investment portfolio as of April 30, 2026 maintained liquid cash in the amount of $14,920,210.98 held between BMO Harris, the City and LAIF and the CALTRUST Liquidity Fund which amounts to just under 19% of the portfolio to provide the cash flow necessary for City payroll and operating expenditures as well as large capital project expenses and unforeseen

emergencies that may occur throughout the year. The following chart displays the total investments and weighted average yield per investment category:
The City’s Banking Services Provider BMO Harris provides a fully collateralized checking account whose funds are used to make cash payments for City payroll and operational expenses. The City performs daily bank reconciliations to ensure adequate cash is held in the checking account for upcoming expenditures. Cash held in the account earns income credits that accumulate at a rate of .75% which offsets banking service charges that are charged each quarter to the city. As of June 10, 2024, the city opened a collateralized money market account BMO Harris.
In accordance with the LA County Safe Water Program Guidelines, a separate money market account was opened in March 2026 to ensure that funds from this program are maintained in a segregated, interest-bearing account.
Petty Cash is held at City facilities for cashiering purposes and to reimburse small dollar expenditures between $0.01 and $50.00.
The Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) is considered a Local Agency Investment Pool and acts much like a money market account. Funds can be deposited and withdrawn without penalty.
The pool invests funds in short-term securities and can produce returns at rates like money markets but is considered more secure.
CALTRUST is a public agency that provides investment funds that are liquid, short term, and medium term. The assets held by CALTRUST are managed by State Street Global Advisors.
Since the City first invested with CALTRUST in August of 2010, buying into the Medium-Term Fund. The City has made various contributions throughout the years as well as reinvested any accumulated interest earnings throughout the life of the fund.

In total the weighted average cost of investing in CALTRUST is $9.99. Currently due to increasing interest rates driving market rates down for assets already held, the share price of the fund as of April 30, 2026, was $9.85. Until interest rates decline to the point that share price would increase to $9.99 or above, the City would be recognizing a loss on sale. However, the City could pull out funds at any time if liquidity needs arose.
Beginning in the month of December 2023, the City opened a liquid fund with CALTRUST which is not subject to market rate adjustments due to the type of investment utilized. The fund yielded
3.76% for the month of April. The City utilizes this account to invest funds received for storm water designs for Lone Hill and Marchant Park, until all funds are utilized to complete the design projects.
The City Treasurer also utilizes Brokers to purchase investment securities such as Government Sponsored Enterprises (Agency Bonds), Corporate Bonds, Municipal Bonds, U.S. Treasuries and Negotiable CDs. As investments get purchased a broker money marker will be used for the transition time between investments maturing and becoming available cash for reinvestments.
The investment policy and California Government Code Section 53600.3 allows the City to invest 30% of its portfolio in Certificates of Deposit and 30% of its portfolio in Corporate Bonds through Brokers. U.S. Treasuries and Government Sponsored Enterprises (Agency Bonds) have no investment limits. However, it is considered a best practice not to invest more than 5% in a single Government Sponsored Enterprise investment.
The following is a breakdown of the total invested in each type of investment along with its percentage of the portfolio:
Additionally, per the Investment Policy, the City has an established maturity matrix with the investment ranges as follows:

For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Michael O'Brien, Director of Administrative Services Subject: Approve Resolution 2026-29 to Repeal and Replace Resolution 2025-24 Amending the Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2025-26 and Resolution 2026-30 Establishing the Calculation Factor and Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2026-27
____________________________________________________________________________
SUMMARY
Council confirmation of the factor used for calculating the Annual Appropriations Limit for the 2026-27 fiscal year and amending the stated Appropriations Limit for the 2025-26 fiscal year.
RECOMMENDATION
City Staff recommends that the City Council:
• Approve Resolution 2026-29, repealing and replacing Resolution 2025-24 to correct the calculated Appropriation Limit for the 2025-26 fiscal year. • Approve Resolution 2026-30, establishing the calculation factor and Appropriations Limit for the 2026-27 fiscal year.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.
BACKGROUND
The “Gann Initiative” (established by 1979’s Proposition 4) insured voters that limits were placed on all State and Local government appropriations or expenditures. After the passage of Proposition 13, a group of citizens were concerned that state spending increases would prompt
Resolution to Repeal and Replace Resolution 2025-24 to amend the Appropriations Limit for fiscal year 2025-2026 and a Resolution to Establish the Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Page 2
For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
California lawmakers to increase other taxes to compensate for the reduction in property tax revenues. The Gann Limit was proposed as a mechanism to limit State and Local spending. In June 1990, the voters of California approved Proposition 111, which revised the annual adjustment factors applied to the 1986-87 appropriations limit and each year thereafter.
Pursuant to Article XIII B of the State Constitution and Section 7910 of the State Government Code, all government entities must adopt an annual Appropriations Limit. The Gann Appropriations Limit specifies that appropriations funded by taxes may be increased annually by the highest change in California per capita income or nonresidential assessed valuation and the change in San Dimas population or Los Angeles County population.
The City Council is required to confirm, each fiscal year, the factor used for calculating the annual Appropriation Limit.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
To correct a typo that stated the calculated GANN Limit for Fiscal Year 2025-26 as $107,457,233 rather than the correct calculated total of $107,454,233 a difference of $3,000, staff has presented Resolution 2026-29 Repealing and Replacing Resolution 2025-24 in order to establish the Fiscal Year 2025-26 GANN Limit as $107,454,233.
For the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Appropriations Limit, the City will use the City population percent change of -0.44, which is higher than the -0.64 percent change of the County of Los Angeles population, along with the California per capital cost of living change of 4.95% as the growth factors in computing the limit. This will result in an increased Appropriations Limit of $112,277,015, which is $4,822,782 higher than the previous fiscal years total of $107,454,233, and well above the approximate budget of $31,300,000 in taxes to be received by the City from all funds in the 2026-27 fiscal year.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may deny the resolution which would mean that the City is not in compliance with Article XIII B of the State Constitution and Section 7910 of the State Government Code.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.
BACKGROUND
In 2017, the Administrative Services Department conducted a complete revision of the Statement of Investment Policy to provide clear objectives, guidelines, and suitable investment options.
Adopt Resolution 2026-31 Approving the City's Investment Policy and Delegating Authority to the City Treasurer to Invest City Funds in Accordance with the City's Investment Policy and with City Manager or Designee, Approval for Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2027Page 2 For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
Since then, the City has conducted annual reviews of the Statement of Investment Policy to ensure compliance with California Government Code section 53600.3 and any new laws or regulations that may dictate the means in which we may invest our idle funds.
The City's Statement of Investment Policy dictates the objectives, investment authorization and authority, authorized and suitable investments, diversification of securities and maturities and reporting guidelines that are in conformity with California Government Code Section 53600.3.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Per the City of San Dimas Municipal Code, an annual action is required to designate a position authorized to invest City funds in accordance with an approved investment policy. This resolution would grant this designation and authority to the City Treasurer, currently the Administrative Services Director.
Any investment would require the City Manager's or designee's approval, which is typically the Assistant City Manager in the City Manager's absence approval, as well as reporting such investments to the City Council 30 days after the transaction.
Changes from the previous investment policy includes a clarification on the Safekeeping process utilized by the City, which requires amending the language to state that transactions are held by a third-party custodian designated by the City Treasurer and evidenced by safekeeping receipts, rather than stating that the City utilizes a delivery-versus-payment process with statements from the safe keeper.
ALTERNATIVES
The City Council could request revisions to the policy to be implemented and brought back to the Council for approval at the following Council meeting.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

CITY OF SAN DIMAS
STATEMENT OF INVESTMENT POLICY
1. POLICY: It is the policy of the City of San Dimas to invest public funds in a manner that will provide an optimal combination of security and investment return while meeting the daily cash flow demands of the City and conforming to all State and local statutes governing the investment of public funds.
2. SCOPE: This investment policy applies to the investment of all financial assets of the City, except for those of the City's deferred compensation plans, the management of which is distinct and is not governed by this Investment Policy, and bond and financing proceeds, which will be made in accordance with the provisions of the applicable indentures or financing documents. For the purpose of investment of bond and financing proceeds into vehicles authorized by the provisions of the applicable indentures or financing documents but not by this policy, all funds are pooled with the General Fund to facilitate ease of handling and to minimize costs of maintaining multiple investment accounts. Earnings on the pool of funds are allocated on a periodic basis to the respective individual funds.
3. PRUDENCE: California Government Code section 53600.3 classifies all governing bodies of local agencies or persons authorized to make investment decision on behalf of those local agencies investing public funds as trustees, and therefore fiduciaries subject to the prudent investor standard. The prudent investor standard requires that when investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency.
4. OBJECTIVES: The Chief objectives, in priority order, of the City's Investment activities shall be:
• Safety: Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio. To attain this objective, the City will diversify its investments to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over concentration of assets in a specific maturity
Resolution 2026-31 Page 4
Approving Investment Policy
May 26, 2026
range, of a specific issuer, or in a specific class of securities. • Liquidity: The City's investment portfolio will be managed to ensure sufficient liquidity to enable the City to meet all reasonably anticipated operating requirements, and should consist of securities with an active secondary or resale market.
• Return on Investment: The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of attaining an optimal return throughout budgetary and economic cycles within established portfolio safety and liquidity parameters.
5. AUTHORIZATION AND DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY: Under and as specified by California Government Code Section 53601, the legislative body of a local agency (i.e., the City Council) is authorized to invest money in its treasury that is not required for immediate needs. As permitted under California Government Code Section 53607, the City Council with the approval of this Policy delegates management responsibility for the investment program for a concurrent and renewable period of one-year to the City Treasurer or in his/her designee, who shall assume full responsibility for those transactions until the delegation of the authority is revoked or expires, and who shall make a monthly report of those transactions to the City Council.
6. ETHICS AND CONFLICTS OF INTEREST: All City officers and employees involved in the City's investment process shall act responsibly as custodians of the public trust, and refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment and portfolio management decisions.
7. AUTHORIZED AND SUITABLE INVESTMENTS: The City is empowered by statute (California Government Code Section 53600 et seg.) to invest money in certain types of securities and funds. Within that empowerment, the City restricts eligible securities and funds to those listed below. Each type listed is subject to various specific requirements and restrictions, imposed by the above referenced California Government Code Section, and by the City by way of this Investment Policy.
• U.S. Treasury Securities
• Federal Agency and U.S. Government-Sponsored Enterprise Obligations • Agency Commercial Mortgage-Backed Security (ACMBS)
• Medium Term Notes
• Corporate Bonds
• Commercial Paper
• Time Deposits (including non-negotiable Certificates of Deposit) • Negotiable Certificates of Deposit
Resolution 2026-31 Page 5
Approving Investment Policy
May 26, 2026
• Bankers' Acceptances
• Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF)
• Los Angeles County Investment Pool (LACIP)
• Cal Trust
• Shares of Beneficial Interest issued by a Joint Powers Authority • Repurchase Agreements
• Mutual Funds
• Money Market Mutual Funds
• U.S. Supranational Securities
• Municipal Bonds
Except as specifically authorized by the City Council in advance, no investment shall be made in any security that at the time of investment has a term remaining to maturity in excess of five years.
As a Local Agency, except for certain securities described in the below section, the City is specifically prohibited from investing in inverse floaters, range notes, mortgage- derived interest-only strips, or any securities that could result in zero interest accrual if held to maturity (California Government Code section 53601.6).
8. SAFEKEEPING AND CUSTODY: All security transactions entered into by the City shall be held by a third-party custodian designated by the City Treasurer and evidenced by safekeeping receipts.
9. DIVERSIFICATION OF SECURITIES AND MATURITIES: The City shall maintain a diversified portfolio to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over concentration of assets in a specific maturity range, of a specific issuer, or in a specific security type.
The City employs a passive investment strategy, by which the City's full intent at the time of purchase is to hold all investments until maturity. Investments shall be made and maintained to match the City's projected cash flow requirements.
Investments shall be made in realization that market prices of securities will vary depending on economic and interest rate conditions at any point in time. In the context of both the City's immediate and/or projected cash flow requirements at any point in time and the City's primary investment goals (safety, liquidity, return on investment), the sale of individual securities prior to maturity for purposes of portfolio reconfiguration may be appropriate.
The City's maturity matrix guideline ranges are as follows:
Maturity Range Guideline Portfolio Percentage
1 Day to 1 Year 30% - 100%
Resolution 2026-31 Page 6
Approving Investment Policy
May 26, 2026
1 Year to 3 Years 5% - 60%
3 Years to 5 Years 0% - 40%
10.INTERNAL CONTROLS: Internal policies and procedures shall be maintained to assure that appropriate controls are in place to document and confirm all transactions. Transaction authority shall be separated from accounting and record keeping. An independent analysis by an external auditor shall be conducted annually to review internal control, account activity and compliance with policies and procedures.
11.PERFORMANCE STANDARDS: Given the City's passive investment strategy and the strategy for maturities diversification, the average weighted maturity of the portfolio will normally approximate two years. The basis used by the Treasurer to determine
whether market yields are being achieved shall be to bench mark portfolio returns as of the end of the month and the average of portfolio returns for the last twelve month ends against comparable two-year Treasury Constant Maturity Yields.
12.REPORTING: The City Treasurer or his/her designee shall provide the City Council and the City Manager a monthly Investment Report within 30 days following the end of the month covered by the report. Each report shall be certified the City Treasurer or his/her designee, signifying compliance with the City's Investment Policy.
Each report shall include the type of investment, issuer, Par and dollar amount invested, maturity date and interest rate. In accordance with California Government Code Section 53646, the City shall provide a copy of its Investment Policy and will supersede previous applicable language.
13.LEGISLATIVE CHANGES: Any State of California legislative action that further restricts allowable securities, investments, portfolio limits or any other elements of this policy will be incorporated in the City's Investment Policy and will supersede previous applicable language.
14.INVESTMENT POLICY ADOPTION: The City's Investment Policy shall be reviewed at least annually and adopted by resolution of the City Council at a public meeting. Any modification to the Investment Policy must be considered by the City Council at a public meeting.

Rev. 06/22 Page 3 of 19 Professional Service Agreement

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify and hold harmless Agency and any and all of its officials, employees, agents, and/or
Rev. 06/22 Page 4 of 19 Professional Service Agreement
volunteers (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses, including attorney’s fees and costs, caused in whole or in part by the negligent or wrongful act, error or omission of Consultant, its officers, agents, employees or subconsultants (or any agency or individual that Consultant shall bear the legal liability thereof) in the performance of services under this Agreement. Consultant’s duty to indemnify and hold harmless Agency shall not extend to the Agency’s sole or active negligence or willful misconduct.
B. Duty to defend
In the event the Indemnified Parties, individually or collectively, are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial proceeding arising from the performance of the services encompassed by this Agreement, and upon demand by Agency, Consultant shall defend the Indemnified Parties at Consultant’s cost or at Agency’s option, to reimburse Agency for its costs of defense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred in the defense of such matters to the extent the matters arise from, relate to or are caused by Consultant’s negligent acts, errors or omissions. Payment by Agency is not a condition precedent to enforcement of this provision. In the event of any dispute between Consultant and Agency, as to whether liability arises from the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of the Agency or its officers, employees, or agents, Consultant will be obligated to pay for Agency’s defense until such time as a final judgment has been entered adjudicating the Indemnified Parties as solely or actively negligent or to have acted with willful misconduct. Consultant will not be entitled in the absence of such a determination to any reimbursement of defense costs including but not limited to attorney’s fees, expert fees, and costs of litigation.

Consultant shall maintain prior to the beginning of and for the duration of this Agreement insurance coverage as specified in [Exhibit C] attached herewith and incorporated herein by this reference as though set forth in full.
XI. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

The personnel performing the services under this Agreement on behalf of Consultant shall at all times be under Consultant's exclusive direction and control. Neither Agency nor any of its officers, employees, or agents shall have control over the conduct of Consultant or any of Consultant's officers, employees, or agents, except as set forth in this Agreement. Consultant shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its officers, employees, or agents are in any manner officers, employees, or agents of the Agency.
Consultant shall not incur or have the power to incur any debt, obligation, or liability whatever against Agency, or bind Agency in any manner.
Rev. 06/22 Page 5 of 19 Professional Service Agreement
B. No employee benefits shall be available to Consultant in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Except for the fees paid to Consultant as provided in the Agreement, Agency shall not pay salaries, wages, or other compensation to Consultant and/or its employees for performing services hereunder for Agency. Agency shall not be liable for compensation or indemnification to Consultant for injury or sickness to its employee(s) arising out of performing services hereunder.
XII. LEGAL RESPONSIBILITIES
The Consultant shall keep itself informed of local, state, and federal laws and regulations which in any manner affect those employed by it or in any way affect the performance of its service pursuant to this Agreement.

The Agency, and its officers and employees, shall not be liable at law or in equity occasioned by failure of the Consultant to comply with this section.
XIII. UNDUE INFLUENCE
Consultant declares and warrants that no undue influence or pressure was used against or in concert with any officer or employee of the Agency in connection with the award, terms, or implementation of this Agreement, including any method of coercion, confidential financial arrangement, or financial inducement. No officer or employee of the Agency has or will receive compensation, directly or indirectly, from Consultant, or from any officer, employee, or agent of Consultant, in connection with the award of this Agreement or any work to be conducted as a result of this Agreement.

XIV. NO BENEFIT TO ARISE TO AGENCY EMPLOYEES
During their tenure and for one year thereafter, no member, officer, or employee of Agency, or their designees or agents, and no public official who exercises authority over or responsibilities with respect to the services under this Agreement shall have any interest, direct or indirect, in any agreement or sub-agreement, or the proceeds thereof, for work to be performed in connection with the services performed under this Agreement.
XV. RELEASE OF INFORMATION/CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
A. All information gained by Consultant in performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential and shall not be released by Consultant without Agency's prior written authorization. Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, or subconsultants, shall not without written authorization from the Agency [Title] or unless requested by the Agency, voluntarily provide declarations, letters of support, testimony at depositions, response to interrogatories, or other information concerning the work performed under this Agreement or relating to
Rev. 06/22 Page 6 of 19 Professional Service Agreement
any project or property located within the Agency. Response to a subpoena or court order shall not be considered "voluntary" provided Consultant gives Agency notice of such court order or subpoena.
B. Consultant shall promptly notify Agency should Consultant, its officers, employees, agents, or subconsultants be served with any summons, complaint, subpoena, notice of deposition, request for documents, interrogatories, request for admissions, or other discovery request (“Discovery”), court order, or subpoena from any person or party regarding this Agreement and the work performed thereunder or with respect to any project or property located within the Agency, unless the Agency is a party to any lawsuit, arbitration, or administrative proceeding connected to such Discovery, or unless Consultant is prohibited by law from informing the Agency of such Discovery. Agency retains the right, but has no obligation, to represent Consultant and/or be present at any deposition, hearing, or similar proceeding as allowed by law. Unless Agency is a party to the lawsuit, arbitration, or administrative proceeding and is adverse to Consultant in such proceeding, Consultant agrees to cooperate fully with Agency and to provide the opportunity to review any response to Discovery requests provided by Consultant.

Without limiting Consultant’s indemnification of Agency, and prior to commencement of work and/or services under this Agreement, Consultant shall obtain, provide, and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the type and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to Agency. [Note: Verify minimum limit for each coverage with Agency Risk Manager.] General liability insurance. Consultant shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.
Automobile liability insurance. Consultant shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Consultant arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned, or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than 1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.
Professional liability (errors & omissions) insurance. Consultant shall maintain professional liability insurance that covers the Services to be performed in connection with this Agreement, in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 per claim and in the aggregate. Any policy inception date, continuity date, or retroactive date must be before the effective date of this agreement and Consultant agrees to maintain continuous coverage through a period no less than three years after completion of the services required by this agreement.
[Note: May need to delete workers' compensation and employer's liability insurance requirements for certain sole proprietorships, partnerships, or corporations without employees.]
Workers’ compensation insurance. Consultant shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance (statutory limits) and Employer’s Liability insurance (with limits of at least $1,000,000).
Consultant shall submit to Agency, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of Agency, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers.
Rev. 06/22 Page 4 of 20 Design Professional Service Agreement [Note: If the required limits for general liability, auto, and employer’s liability are $1 million or less, the following paragraph may be omitted.] Umbrella or excess liability insurance. [If required to meet higher limits.]. Consultant shall obtain and maintain an umbrella liability insurance policy with limits that will provide bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage liability coverage, including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability. Such policy or policies shall include the following terms and conditions:
• A drop-down feature requiring the policy to respond if any primary insurance that would otherwise have applied proves to be uncollectible in whole or in part for any reason, other than bankruptcy or insolvency of said primary insurer; • “Pay on behalf of” wording as opposed to “reimbursement”; • Concurrency of effective dates with primary policies.
Should Consultant obtain and maintain an excess liability policy, such policy shall be excess over commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability policies. Such policy or policies shall include wording that the excess liability policy follows the terms and conditions of the underlying policies.
Other provisions or requirements
Proof of insurance. Consultant shall provide certificates of insurance and required endorsements to Agency as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.
Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by Agency’s Risk Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with Agency for the contract period and any additional length of time required thereafter. Agency reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
Duration of coverage. Consultant shall procure and maintain for the contract period, and any additional length of time required thereafter, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, or financial loss which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Work hereunder by Consultant, their agents, representatives, employees, or subconsultants.
Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by Consultant shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by Agency shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of Agency before the Agency’s own insurance or self- insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
Rev. 06/22 Page 5 of 20 Design Professional Service Agreement Agency’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is canceled and not replaced, Agency has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary, and any premium paid by Agency will be promptly reimbursed by Consultant or Agency will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Consultant payments. In the alternative, Agency may cancel this Agreement.
Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the Agency’s Risk Manager.
Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against Agency, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers or shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Consultant hereby waives its own right of recovery against Agency and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the Agency to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the Agency nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the Agency requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the Agency.
Notice of cancellation. Consultant agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide the Agency with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. If any of the Consultant’s insurers are unwilling to provide such notice, then Consultant shall have the responsibility of notifying the Agency immediately in the event of Consultant’s failure to renew any of the required insurance coverages, or insurer’s cancellation or non-renewal.
Rev. 06/22 Page 6 of 20 Design Professional Service Agreement Additional insured status. General liability, automobile liability, and umbrella/excess liability insurance policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that Agency and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies.
Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to Agency and approved of in writing.
Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.
Pass through clause. Consultant agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party who is brought onto or involved in the project/service by Consultant (hereinafter collectively “Subcontractor”), provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of Consultant under this Agreement. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. However, in the event Consultant’s Subcontractor cannot comply with this requirement, which proof must be submitted to the Agency, Consultant may still be able to utilize the Subcontractor provided Consultant shall be required to ensure that its Subcontractor provide and maintain insurance coverage and endorsements sufficient to the specific risk of exposure involved with Subcontractor’s scope of work and services, with limits less than required of the Consultant, but in all other terms consistent with the Consultant’s requirements under this Agreement. This provision does not relieve the Consultant of its contractual obligations under the Agreement and/or limit its liability to the amount of insurance coverage provided by its subcontractors. This provision is intended solely to provide Consultant with the ability to utilize a Subcontractor who may be otherwise qualified to perform the work or services but may not carry the same insurance limits as required of the Consultant under this Agreement given the limited scope of work or services provided by the subcontractor.
Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with Subcontractors, and others engaged in the project and/or services, will be submitted to Agency for review.
Agency’s right to revise specifications. The Agency reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the Agency and Consultant may renegotiate Consultant’s compensation.
Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by Agency. Agency reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible, or require proof of ability to pay losses
Rev. 06/22 Page 7 of 20 Design Professional Service Agreement and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention through confirmation from the underwriter.
Timely notice of claims. Consultant shall give Agency prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Consultant’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
Additional insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the work.

For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
From: Brad McKinney, City Manager
Prepared by: Scott Wasserman, Director of Parks & Recreation Subject: Approve a One-Year Contract Extension with Urban Graffiti for Graffiti Abatement and Shopping Cart Retrieval Services for an Amount Not to Exceed $103,000
____________________________________________________________________________
SUMMARY
The contract for graffiti abatement and shopping cart retrieval services is set to expire on June 30, 2026. Staff is requesting the remaining single year extension option be executed for these services for Fiscal Year 2026-27.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council:
• Approve the extension of the graffiti abatement and shopping cart retrieval services contract with Urban Graffiti for one year to expire on June 30, 2027, in an amount not to exceed $103,000.
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
No
FISCAL IMPACT
The contract is funded by the General Fund and is included in the FY 2026-27 budget. The current annual contract cost is $103,000.
BACKGROUND
The City of San Dimas contracts with Urban Graffiti Enterprises, Inc. to provide city-wide graffiti removal and shopping cart retrieval services. The initial one-year contract with Urban Graffiti was
Approve a One-Year Contract Extension with Urban Graffiti for Graffiti Abatement and Shopping Cart Retrieval Services for an Amount Not to Exceed $103,000 Page 2 For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
executed in 2021. In 2022, the contract term was then extended for an additional two-year term through 2024, followed by an additional one-year term to continue service through June 30, 2025.
The City Council subsequently approved a one-year extension to extend services through June 30, 2026. The contract is set to expire on June 30, 2026, if no action is taken to extend the contract. Urban Graffiti has provided exemplary service during the term of the contract and continues to meet all contract requirements.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Urban Graffiti has provided excellent service and has been very responsive to meeting the needs of the City. During the current fiscal year, Urban Graffiti has responded to 114 calls to remove shopping carts and 291 calls to remove graffiti. Staff recommends extending the contract for an additional one-year term in order to continue effectively addressing graffiti and abandoned shopping carts in the City.
ALTERNATIVES
The City Council could elect not to extend the contract with Urban Graffiti. In this scenario, City staff would release a Request for Bids to identify a contractor to address graffiti abatement and shopping cart retrieval. It is expected that re-bidding the contract will result in significant higher costs to the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.

For the Meeting of May 26, 2026

Prepared by: Shari Garwick, Director of Public Works
Subject: Authorize the City Manager to Accept Storm Drain Easements from the Brasada Homeowners Association (Tracts 70583-01, 70583-02, 70583-03) in Preparation for Transfer to Los Angeles County and Authorize the City Manager to Convey Storm Drain Easements from the Brasada Development to Los Angeles County
____________________________________________________________________________
SUMMARY
As a condition of project approval, the Brasada developer was required to construct and transfer nine debris basins and associated 18-to-60-inch reinforced concrete storm drain lines to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District. As part of the transfer process, the County requires that all associated storm drain easements be conveyed to the City and subsequently transferred by the City to the County.
A total of 34 storm drain easements are required to complete the transfer of the storm drain system to the County. The City currently holds 22 of the required easements. The remaining 12 easements have been executed by the Homeowners Association and must be formally accepted by the City before the transfer can be completed.
Upon acceptance of all 34 easements, staff requests that the City Council authorize the City Manager to convey the easements to Los Angeles County Flood Control District as part of the Miscellaneous Transfer Drain process.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff Recommends that Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to accept the storm drain easement dedications from the Brasada Homeowners Association, and
2. Authorize the City Manager to convey all necessary storm drain easements for the Brasada Development to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District as part of the Miscellaneous Transfer Drain process.
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:

https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
No
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.
BACKGROUND
The Brasada Development is located in the northwest corner of the City and includes Tract Maps 70583-01, 70583-02 and 70583-03. As a condition of approval, the developer was required to construct and transfer 9 debris basins and associated 18-to-60-inch reinforced concrete storm drain system to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District.
These facilities protect downstream properties from flooding by detaining runoff and gradually releasing flows into the existing storm drain system. The basins also capture sediment, wildland debris and post-fire material, requiring ongoing maintenance.
Construction began in 2018 and has been completed. The system has passed County inspection and is ready for transfer.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
As part of the transfer process, the County requires that all storm drain easements be conveyed to the County by the City. The County will not accept the easements directly from the developer.
A total of 34 easements are required for transfer of the 9 basins and the associated storm drain system. The City currently holds easements on 22 of the 34 required parcels through tract map dedications or separate recorded instruments. The Brasada Homeowners Association has executed the remaining 12 easements, which now require formal acceptance by the City. Staff therefore requests that City Council authorize the City Manager to accept the remaining easements. Timely acceptance is important because changes in the Homeowners Association leadership could require re-execution of the easement documents by a new association president, potentially delaying completion of the transfer process.
Following acceptance of all easements, staff requests that the City Council authorize the City Manager to convey all necessary easements to the Los Angeles County Flood Control District.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may choose to delay the acceptance of the easements; however, doing so could delay completion of the transfer process if the Homeowners Association leadership changes and the easement documents must be re-executed.

Prepared by: Shari Garwick, Director of Public Works
Subject: Reject all Bids Submitted for Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Management Improvements
____________________________________________________________________________
SUMMARY
Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Management Improvements was publicly bid on April 2, 2026. The City received seven bids. Staff recommends rejecting all bids and re-advertising the project to incorporate additional construction phasing requirements, milestone deadlines subject to liquidated damages, and enforceable schedule controls intended to minimize operational impacts to the equestrian center during construction.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council:
• Reject all bids for Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Improvements and authorize staff to re-bid the project in accordance with Section
3.30.070(A)(1) of the San Dimas Municipal Code Rejecting Formal Bids.
GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES:
https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov
No
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact for the recommended action.
Reject all Bids for Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Management Improvements Page 2
For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
BACKGROUND
Construction Contract 2025-07 consists of the installation of water quality management improvements to Horsethief Canyon Park, primarily within the Sycamore Canyon Equestrian Center. The proposed infrastructure is intended to improve stormwater runoff quality and reduce erosion impacts within the equestrian areas of the park.
The project includes construction of a catch basin and infiltration system, installation of two clarifiers, connection of the horse wash racks to the sanitary sewer system, installation of sewer and storm drain pipelines and concrete channels, paving of areas susceptible to erosion and planting of trees to reduce heat island effects.
The Engineer’s estimate is $700,000.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
On April 2, 2026, the City Clerk publicly opened seven (7) formal bids for Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Management Improvements. The preliminary bid results are as follows:
CC 2025-07 Bid Results Bid Amount
Estate Design and Construction $678,000.00
Addison Miller-Inc $750,523.40
Gentry General Engineering $753,378.00
Shiraz Construction $784,208.75
E2 Contracting $846,060.89
RCCI DBA Ramirez Company $886,330.00
Cora Constructors Inc $915,555.00
Staff reviewed the bids received for the project and recommends rejecting all bids and readvertising the project with revised contract provisions that provide enhanced construction scheduling controls, phased completion requirements, and enforceable schedule accountability measures.
The proposed revisions are intended to better manage the potential duration and extent of active construction areas throughout the project site. Because the equestrian center will remain operational during construction, maintaining safe and continuous access for patrons, staff, horses, and service operations is a critical project objective. Additional contract controls will help minimize disruption to ongoing operations and reduce the risk and impact of prolonged or incomplete work areas.
The revised bid documents will incorporate more detailed phasing requirements, including specified interim milestone completion dates for individual portions of the work, site maintenance requirements, and liquidated damages or other contractual penalties associated with failure to meet required timelines and operational obligations. These provisions are intended to improve contractor performance, reduce the likelihood of extended disruptions, and provide the City with clearer enforcement mechanisms if interim project milestones are not achieved.
Reject all Bids for Construction Contract 2025-07 Horsethief Canyon Water Quality Management Improvements Page 3
For the Meeting of May 26, 2026
While the current bid documents identify anticipated construction phasing and timelines, they do not include sufficient contractual remedies tied to failure to maintain those schedules. Given the operational sensitivity and complexity of this project, staff believes additional schedule controls and enforceable milestone requirements are necessary to protect City operations and ensure timely completion of the work.
Should Council reject all bids and authorize staff to re-advertise the project, staff anticipates returning to the City Council with a recommendation for award in late July or early August.
ALTERNATIVES
City Council may reject staff’s recommendation and direct staff to proceed with awarding the project to the lowest bidder, Estate Design and Construction. Staff would then return at the next Council meeting to present the project for award.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to CEQA guidelines Section 15061 (b)(3), CEQA does not apply to this item because there is no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Therefore, no additional environmental review is needed at this time.
