DATE: June 21, 2022
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Beya Makekau, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Manager VIA: Derek Johnson, City Manager
SUBJECT: ITEM 5c.- CONSIDERATION OF THE 2022-23 HUMAN RELATIONS
COMMISSION GRANTS-IN-AID FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff received the following questions, regarding GIA funding recommendations from the Human Relations Commission (HRC). The questions are below with staff’s response shown in italics. Also, HRC Vice Chair Kasperzak will be in attendance at tonight’s meeting and able to answer questions if requested.
1) Did the full HRC have a role in determining final recommendations? Answer: Yes. The grant review subcommittee provided an initial recommendation to the full HRC on 4/06/22. After deliberation and discussion, the Commission unanimously voted on funding recommendations and were again reviewed by the full HRC at a required public hearing on 5/04/22. At that meeting, the Commission voted to recommend the organizations and funding amounts as presented in the Council Agenda Report for the 6/21/22 City Council meeting. 2) What was rationale behind funding Pregnancy and Parenting Support? Answer: The commissioners felt the funding request aligned with the identified top funding priorities, specifically hunger and malnutrition prevention and supportive physical and mental health services for those in need. The funding application stated that:
“Pregnancy & Parenting Support distributes infant formula to low and very low-income families and nutritional supplements to pregnant women. As part of a countywide network aiding with infant nutrition to families alongside their agency partner, WIC (Women Infants & Children), their barrier-free services are available to all families with infants and toddlers. They are requesting $10,000 to be used to buy infant formula and nutritional supplements for these families. Additionally, funds will be used to supplement the salaries of staff providing emotional support and distributing basic needs.”
Insert Report Title Page 2
The historical GIA funding for this organization is listed below and included in Attachment 5.B.
2018 Grant Award: $4,282
2019 Grant Award: $7,000
2020 Grant Award: $2,000
2021 Grant Award: $5,000
3) What was the rationale behind funding French Hospital? Answer: The commissioners felt that the funding application request was aligned with the HRC primary funding priority of homelessness prevention and support. The funding application stated that:
“Homeless Support and Prevention Program (HSPP) at French Hospital Medical Center (FHMC) provides financial assistance and case-managed follow-up for medically fragile homeless patients, as well as homeless prevention services for patients considered at-risk. The HSPP provides homeless patients and patients identified as at-risk for homelessness with the following services at hospital discharge: (1) shelter for additional recovery time, (2) a stay at a sober living facility (if medical conditions are exacerbated by or related to substance abuse), (3) transportation upon discharge, (4) medication, (5) basic survival supplies, and (6) case management services. This program relies on gifts and donations; the requested funds will help cover the costs of these services”. The program would benefit 650 city residents.”
Commissioners also increased the initial funding recommendation during final deliberations due to its close alignment with the primary funding priority. 4) What was rationale for not funding the R.A.C.E. Matters Black Salon/Cultural Space project?
Answer: Commissioners felt they lacked information on the specifics of acquiring a physical space for the salon. Commissioners also felt that the R.A.C.E. Matters salon proposal directly aligned with the DEI high impact grant criteria and could qualify for funding under that grant program which will be launched in July. The R.A.C.E. Matters program recommended for funding is the NioreSLO series as described in Attachment 5.C. Also, please note that the program description for the NioreSLO series in Attachment 5.C. incorrectly listed events to be funded as “private”. Per HRC bylaws and contract requirements the events being funded will be open to all members of the public with some events requiring registration.
Registration will be open to all members of the public.

FROM: Greg Hermann, Deputy City Manager
Prepared By: Beya Makekau, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Manager SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF THE 2022-23 HRC GRANTS-IN-AID FUNDING
RECOMMENDATIONS
RECOMMENDATION
1. As recommended by the Human Relations Commission, approve the 2022-23 Grantsin-Aid funding allocations in the amount of $250,000; and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute agreements with each grant recipient.
DISCUSSION
Background
The City’s Grants-in-Aid (GIA) program, overseen by the Human Relations Commission (HRC), provides financial support to non-profit organizations that promote the economic and social well-being of the citizens of San Luis Obispo. Grants are made to local organizations or agencies based in neighboring communities who serve a significant number of City residents. The HRC advises the City Council on community needs and funding recommendations.
Funding Priorities
On November 16, 2021, Council adopted homelessness prevention, including affordable and alternative housing, support services and transitional housing as the primary funding priority for allocating GIA funds for the 2022-23 program. However, to allow maximum flexibility for funding recommendations dependent upon the received applications, the following were not ranked, but were agreed to be important priorities by the Human Relations Commission:
Hunger and malnutrition prevention
Supportive physical and mental health services for those in need Services for seniors, veterans and/or people with disabilities in need Supportive, development and care services for children and youth in need Services encouraging diversity, equity, and inclusivity in marginalized communities including language access
Item 5c
GIA Application Process
In December of 2021, the HRC formally launched its annual GIA process by advertising the availability of grant funds and information regarding the upcoming GIA timeline via email to past applicants and agencies identified by the DEI taskforce. GIA applications were due to the City on January 29, 2022. The City received grant funding requests from 30 agencies requesting funding for 35 different programs totaling $401,167, which amounted to $151,167 over the available funding amount. Attachment A includes a list of the applications submitted to the City for GIA funding and the HRC’s recommended funding amounts. The GIA Program Application Summary, provided as Attachment B, further describes each program and recommendation reasoning.
Increase in Funding Availability
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) approved $350 billion for state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments in the form of the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds. This historic bill provides economic stimulus funding to the City of San Luis Obispo to reimburse lost revenue and help support economic recovery efforts. An initial $8.9 million was programmed into the 2021-23 Supplemental budget and it has since been increased to $13.5 million. At the February 15, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to prioritize ARPA funding towards housing and homelessness, and at the March 1, 2022, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to return at the 2022-2023 Supplemental Budget to appropriate $100,000 to augment the Human Relations Commission annual Grants in Aid (GIA) cycle one time to further support health and human services programs or projects which was approved at the June 7, 2022 City Council meeting. As adopted in the 2021-23 Financial Plan, the initial budget for the GIA program was $150,000. The additional allocation from the ARPA funding created $250,000 in total funding available for this upcoming cycle.
Subcommittee and HRC Preliminary Review Process
On February 2, 2022, the HRC convened the GIA subcommittee of Commissioner Grothaus and Vice Chair Kasprzak to review grant applications and make preliminary funding recommendations in the amount of $250,000. The subcommittee members utilized the endorsed GIA Funding Priorities set by Council, the location of the target population of people to be served, and the incurred expenses proposed to be offset by GIA dollars, to guide their funding recommendations. On April 6, 2022, the GIA subcommittee presented preliminary grant recommendations to the full HRC. During the discussion, the subcommittee engaged with the other Commissioners to adjust the preliminary recommendations, based on their experiences as and overall feasibility of the proposed projects in accordance with the Funding Priorities and Criteria.
HRC Public Hearing
The public hearing was held on May 4, 2022, which allowed the HRC to solicit feedback from 11 public/service providers on the GIA preliminary funding recommendations, prior to review by the City Council. Upon the public testimony, the HRC voted to approve the preliminary funding recommendations.
Item 5c
Grant Contracts
Upon Council approval of GIA funding allocations, the City will enter into a contract with each organization that has been awarded grant funding. The HRC and City staff will monitor the contracts throughout the year.
Public Engagement
The public, and more specifically non-profit service organizations, were engaged throughout the entire GIA award process, as described in sections above. This item is on the consent agenda for the June 21, 2022 City Council and will follow all required posting and notification. The public can submit comments on this item at or before the meeting.

ALTERNATIVES
1. The Council may modify the proposed grant funding amounts. The Council should provide direction on the modifications desired.
2. The Council may choose to fund eligible GIA applications not recommended by HRC. This action is not recommended by staff because thorough consideration was given to recommended awardees with public involvement.

DISPOSAL ACCOUNTS
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution entitled, “A Resolution of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, authorizing the San Luis Obispo County Assessor to assess amounts due on delinquent Solid Waste Collection and Disposal Accounts as liens against the properties.”
DISCUSSION
Background
Based on the need to protect public health and safety, the Municipal Code establishes that occupants of all developed properties within the City benefit from regular periodic collection of solid waste. Section 8.04.070 of the Municipal Code states:
1. That all developed properties in the City must use the solid waste collection and disposal service provided by the City's franchisee.
2. That the franchisee is responsible for collecting all fees for the service.
3. That the owners of developed properties are ultimately responsible for paying for the service.
4. That once each year the franchisee may take actions to collect from delinquent solid waste collection and disposal accounts.
5. That, after the franchisee has completed the actions established within the Municipal Code, the City will adopt a resolution authorizing the San Luis Obispo County Assessor to assess amounts due on delinquent accounts as liens against the properties.
San Luis Garbage Company has taken the actions prescribed in the Municipal Code to collect delinquent solid waste collection and disposal accounts. In adherence to the Municipal Code, San Luis Garbage Company has presented the City with a list of property owners whose accounts were more than 120 days past due, has sent certified letters to those property owners requesting payment, and after 30 days of receipt of delivery certification for payment requests, has presented the City with a final list of property owners whose accounts are still past due.
Item 5d
The resolution (Attachment A) authorizes the San Luis Obispo County Assessor to assess the amounts due on delinquent accounts as liens against the properties.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
On an annual basis the City Council authorizes the collection of past due solid waste collection and disposal accounts.
Public Engagement
San Luis Garbage Company has sent certified letters to past due property owners requesting payment.
CONCURRENCE
The Finance Department concurs with the information in this report and the process used for collecting past due amounts.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act does not apply to the recommended action in this report because the action does not constitute a “Project” under CEQA Guidelines sec. 15378.

There is no direct fiscal impact to the City as the franchisee is responsible for collecting all fees for solid waste and disposal. Administration of the franchise is accounted for in the City’s Solid Waste & Recycling program, included in the two-year Financial Plan on page 331.
Item 5d
ALTERNATIVES
The City’s Municipal Code Section 8.04.070 provides a process for San Luis Obispo Garbage Company to collect payment for delinquent solid waste collection and disposal accounts. The City Council could choose not to approve the recommended action if it believes San Luis Garbage Company has not taken the actions prescribed in the Municipal Code.

Prepared By: Tina Clark, Solid Waste and Recycling Coordinator SUBJECT: ADOPT THE SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED JOINT POINT
POWERS AGREEMENT TO ESTABLISH AN INTEGRATED WASTE
MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY FOR THE CITIES OF SAN LUIS OBISPO
COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution entitled, “A Resolution of the City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo, California, adopting the second amended and restated Joint Powers Agreement to establish an Integrated Waste Management Authority for the cities of San Luis Obispo County, California.”
DISCUSSION
On April 13, 2022, the San Luis Obispo County Integrated Waste Management Authority (IWMA) approved a second amended and restated Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) to establish an Integrated Waste Management Authority for the Cities of San Luis Obispo County to include amendments reflecting the County’s withdrawal from the agency.
Following multiple member agency meetings and discussions surrounding the changes to the document, the IWMA has subsequently released this document to its member agencies for adoption by resolution (Attachments A, B & C).
Background
In 1994, the City of San Luis Obispo, along with the cities Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Grover Beach, Morro Bay, Paso Robles, Pismo Beach, and the County of San Luis Obispo, formed the IWMA to provide regional coordination and economies of scale in meeting the requirements of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 and subsequent legislation by entering a JPA. In 2001, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was established between the represented Cities, County, and certain special districts within San Luis Obispo County to allow for special districts to be represented on the IWMA Board.
San Luis Obispo County Withdrawal Prompts IWMA JPA Amendment On September 14, 2021, the County Board of Supervisors voted to withdraw from the IWMA effective November 15, 2021. On October 19, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No.11283, stating the City’s intent to remain a member of the IWMA provided the following conditions were satisfied (Attachment D):
Item 5e
1. Remove the five County Supervisors as voting board members of the IWMA effective immediately.
2. Remove the eight-member (super-majority) voting provision stated in Section 8.5 of the existing Agreement.
3. Add a provision to the Agreement which clearly and directly limits the IWMA’s ability to adopt, impose, or implement any rule, regulation, policy, or ordinance in excess of the State requirements.
4. Specify the City of San Luis Obispo as the “designee” under the California Government Code which simply enables the IWMA to exercise both latent and articulated powers for solid waste management otherwise permitted by the powers of the City of San Luis Obispo.
On November 16, 2022, the City Council adopted the Second Amendment to the initial JPA (Attachment E) and the First Amendment to the MOA (Attachment F). These documents satisfied conditions No. 1, No. 2, and No. 4 listed above. On November 10, 2022, the IWMA initiated the formation of an Ad Hoc Committee to further revise the initial JPA as other cities had expressed similar concerns to condition No. 3, limiting the future scope of IWMA services to meeting State mandates only. Thus, the City Council authorized the Mayor to execute future Amendments to the initial JPA and MOA, provided they were consistent with Council Resolution No. 11283 and addressed condition No. 3.
This item is being brought back to Council for consideration as the amended and restated JPA released by the IWMA exceeds the guidelines outlined in Resolution No. 11283.
IWMA Ad Hoc Committee Review and Final JPA Amendments
The Ad Hoc Committee completed its work this spring and after several rounds of deliberations, the IWMA Board approved the release of the amended and restated JPA at its April 13, 2022 meeting. The amendment incorporates special district representation on the IWMA Board and exceeds the requirements specified in condition No. 3. In addition to limiting the IWMA’s powers to addressing state-mandated legislative and regulatory requirements only, the JPA calls for the IWMA to establish a budget and a purchasing policy that requires Board consideration of the minimum work required to meeting these requirements in the most demonstratively cost-effective way possible. In addition to the City of San Luis Obispo, the cities of Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Grover Beach, Morro Bay, Paso Robles, and Pismo Beach must also approve the amended and restated agreement to become effective. Staff anticipates approval by all Member Agencies.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
The following summarizes previous City Council action as described above. October 19, 2021 – adopted Resolution No.11283 stating the City’s intent to remain a member of the IWMA provided certain conditions were met. November 16, 2021 – adopted the Second Amendment to the JPA and the MOA which satisfied conditions No’s. 1, 2, & 4 and authorized the Mayor to execute additional JPA and MOA amendments provided they were consistent with Resolution No. 11283 and addressed condition No. 3.
Item 5e
Policy Context
The City’s Climate Action Plan Pillar 5: Circular Economy lists waste diversion as a means of achieving greenhouse gas emissions goals. Participation in the IWMA’s outreach and education, implementation, monitoring, and compliance programs has allowed the City to make progress towards meeting these goals with regional impact.
Public Engagement
As this is an administrative item, no outside public engagement was completed. Public comment can be provided to the City Council through written correspondence prior to the meeting and through public testimony at the meeting.
CONCURRENCE
The City’s Finance Department and Attorney’s Office concur with the findings of this report.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The recommended actions are not a project as defined under CEQA Guidelines Section 15738.

There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. The IWMA’s 5.4%- member agency gross hauler receipts fee was included in the Integrated Solid Waste Rate adopted by City Council on April 19, 2022.
Item 5e
ALTERNATIVES
1. Council could decide to no longer be a Member Agency of the Integrated Waste Management Authority. Staff does not recommend this action because it would require the City to assume full responsibility for the implementation of all State legislative mandates related to solid waste and recycling such as AB 939, AB 1826, and SB 1383.
2. Council could decide to not accept the new JPA and either propose changes to it or recommend keeping the previous version. Staff does not recommend this action as the other Member Agencies are anticipated to support the new JPA, and approval by all Member Agencies is required for the new JPA to become effective.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN LUIS
OBISPO, CALIFORNIA, TO REMAIN A MEMBER AGENCY OF THE SAN
LUIS OBISPO COUNTY INTEGRATED WASTE MANAGEMENT
AUTHORITY JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY (JPA) PROVIDED CERTAIN
CONDITIONS ARE SATISFIED
WHEREAS, the Integrated Waste Management Authority (“ IWMA”) is a JPA comprised of the County of San Luis Obispo, (“County”) seven local agencies (Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Grover Beach, Morro Bay, Paso Robles, Pismo Beach and San Luis Obispo) and a representative of the Community Services District. The IWMA manages, on behalf of its members, hazardous waste, universal waste, solid waste, recycling, and food/green waste; and
WHEREAS, the IWMA is a way for JPA members to pool resources and costeffectively comply with various solid waste and other regulations including, but not limited to, Senate Bill (SB) 1383, the recently enacted Short Lived Climate Pollutants regulations.
The IWMA staff is responsible for administration of over 40 different solid waste programs including household hazardous waste collection, electronics waste collection, and sharps disposal, and many of which require public education and outreach, monitoring, and reporting to the State; and
WHEREAS, the City supports the IWMA through payment of solid waste management fees imposed on all solid waste ratepayers; and WHEREAS, the IWMA is presently helping all member agencies comply with SB 1383, which is the most significant change to solid waste regulations in 30 years. SB 1383 requires jurisdictions to implement an organic waste diversion program that includes providing organic waste collection services to businesses and residences, edible food recovery goals, public education and outreach, contamination monitoring and sampling activities, recordkeeping and reporting, organic and edible food recovery, infrastructure capacity planning, procurement of recovered organic waste products, and enforcement; and
WHEREAS, in October 2019, the IWMA passed a countywide ordinance banning polystyrene products. The ordinance was controversial because it exceeded State requirements. In March 2020, the IWMA board opted to delay implementation of the ordinance by 12 months. In November 2020, the IWMA board adopted a new strategic plan that committed the agency to implementing and not exceeding State regulatory requirements. In April 2021, the IWMA board considered revoking the polystyrene product ban. However, the ban was upheld after invocation of a Supermajority provision written into the JPA; and

R 11283
WHEREAS, a series of events contributed to the County commissioning a thirdparty study of costs for the County to withdraw from the IWMA and independently fulfill all essential functions of the IWMA. The study assessed additional costs of $1.6 to $2.1 million per year to unincorporated rate payers and staffing of five new full-time positions to fulfill the programmatic needs for compliance with State mandates. According to the study, to cover projected cost increases, the County would need to immediately increase solid waste rates by 10% to 12% for residents in unincorporated areas; and WHEREAS, on August 10, 2021, the County Board of Supervisors held a hearing to decide whether to withdraw from the IWMA. The County Board of Supervisors voted to withdraw from the IWMA and implement an independent county solid waste compliance program; and
WHEREAS, the County’s analysis and subsequent August 10, 2021 decision to withdraw did not include policy analysis or consideration regarding how withdrawal would financially impact remaining JPA member rates; and
WHEREAS, on September 14, 2021, the County Board of Supervisors passed a resolution to formally notify the IWMA of its intent to withdraw on November 15, 2021.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo as follows:
SECTION 1. The City hereby declares intent to remain a member agency of the San Luis Obispo County Integrated Waste Management Authority (IWMA) subject to the following conditions:
a) The IWMA Joint Powers Authority Agreement shall be revised as follows:
i) Remove the five County Supervisors as voting board members of the IWMA effective immediately; and
ii) Remove the eight-member voting provision stated in Section 8.5; and iii) Add a provision to the Agreement which clearly and directly limits the IWMA’s ability to adopt, impose, or implement any rule, regulation, policy, or ordinance in excess of the State requirements. b) The revised JPA Agreement must be fully executed as soon as possible. c) The IWMA must also take the following actions:
i) Begin recruitment and diligently pursue hiring a permanent Executive Director as soon as practical; and
ii) Hire a third-party firm with solid waste management expertise to analyze fees, staffing structures and make recommendation for any programs and services that are not required by, or are in excess of, State solid waste regulations. The report shall identify potential cost saving measures and the Board shall evaluate and implement those recommendations to reduce costs and minimize expenses. The report must be completed and distributed to all JPA members.

SUBJECT: ITEM #5f – AUTHORIZATION TO ACCEPT CARPETING DONATION THE
HISTORY CENTER OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY
Staff received a question asking for clarification on the process of the donor donating to the History Center for the carpeting replacement.
The donor will make the monetary donation for the carpet project to the History Center, who would in turn make a donation of new carpeting and associated labor to the City.
There could be many underlying benefits to providing a donation to the History Center and not directly the City. The three that were identified by staff are as follows:
1. The City has an agreement with the History Center to maintain and manage the property and they are best positioned to receive the donation and honor the wishes of the donor to quickly replace the carpet.
2. The donor could possibly receive a tax benefit as a direct donation to the City is not tax deductible. This path would involve the History Center, the donor, and the IRS. There are no legal underlying concerns with staff’s recommendation.
3. With the History Center taking the lead on this project and not the donor, the donor would not be required to enter into an agreement with the City and provide the necessary insurance requirements.

FROM: Matt Horn, Public Works Director
Prepared By: Greg Cruce, Deputy Director – Maintenance Operations SUBJECT: ACCEPT CARPETING DONATION FROM THE HISTORY CENTER OF
SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY
RECOMMENDATION
1. Accept a donation of new carpeting and associated labor for the Carnegie Library Museum; and
2. Authorize the Mayor to sign a Donation Agreement with the History Center of San Luis Obispo.
DISCUSSION
Built in 1905, the Carnegie Library building served as the City of San Luis Obispo Library until 1956, when library operations relocated to a larger building. Shortly after the move of the Library, the History Center (formerly known as the Historical Society) opened a museum in the building and has operated at this location ever since.
The City owns the building and the facility is operated by the History Center as our community partner. The City’s lease agreement with the History Center stipulates the City is responsible for unplanned repairs and planned upgrades to the building, while the History Center is responsible for the janitorial, landscape maintenance, and maintenance of any program related equipment.
In 1999, the building was seismically reinforced, renovated, and reopened to the community in fall of 2000. The current carpeting in the building was last upgraded during this project. The City has a five-year Capital Improvement Project forecast, and the carpet replacement for the Carnegie Library Museum is currently scheduled for FY 2025-26.
Recently, a long-time volunteer and donor to the History Center proposed to donate the funding necessary to replace the carpeting and the associated labor to move furniture for the project. As stated in the donation letter (Attachment A), the donor would donate the funding to the History Center, who would then sponsor the project. Since the carpet is a City maintenance responsibility in the lease agreement, this carpeting is in fact a donation to the City and therefore must follow the City’s Donation Acceptance Policy.
Item 5f
Policy Context
In 1999, the City Council adopted Resolution 8965 adopting a City Donation Acceptance Policy (Attachment C) for donations more than $5,000. This policy stipulates requirements of the donations to ensure they are in the best interest of the City. The current donation proposal meets the requirements and intent of this policy.
CONCURRENCE
The City Administration, Attorney’s Office, and Public Works Department concur with acceptance of the donation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed donation will have any effect on the environment (General Rule Exemption CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15061(b)(3)).

FROM: Matt Horn, Public Works Director
Prepared By: Greg Cruce, Deputy Director – Maintenance Operations SUBJECT: APPROVE A CITY SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE FOR BARRIERS TO
PROTECT PEOPLE FROM VEHICLES
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve a City Sole Purchase in the amount of $331,279.73 to purchase barriers to protect people from vehicles from Meridian Rapid Defense Group; and
2. Authorize the Finance Director to execute and issue a Purchase Order upon approval.
DISCUSSION
Background
The City of San Luis Obispo is host to many festivals and events, including a weekly Farmer’s Market that is hosted by Downtown SLO. This popular event occurs every Thursday evening in the downtown and attracts both residents and visitors from all over the world, with crowds varying in size between 3,000 to 8,000 visitors per week depending on the time of year. After unfortunate incidents of vehicles entering pedestrian areas at similar events in the US, the City has chosen to take the necessary steps to enhance visitor safety at this event, as well as other events or large gatherings that may occur in the city.
As part of the 2019-21 Financial Plan, a CIP request was approved to fund a permanent installation of in-ground vehicle barriers to be used during the Market. As the design for this project was nearing completion, the city enacted the Fiscal Health Contingency Plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of this, the project was deferred at that time. Since the deferral of the project, staff has researched other available options of anti-vehicle barricades that will offer the same protection to event visitors.
Last year, the City contacted Meridian Rapid Defense Group to request a demonstration of their patented Anti-Vehicle Barricades. A company representative visited San Luis Obispo with the product, which allowed the City to evaluate the product. After the assessment, staff found this alternate to permanent barriers as their preferred choice for the following reasons:
Item 5g
1. Significant cost reduction as opposed to permanent in-ground barriers
2. No ongoing mechanical system maintenance
3. Zero risk of mechanical failure by water intrusion
4. Ability to use at other events throughout the City
5. Ease of loading and unloading barriers
6. Barriers do not require field assembly/disassembly, saving staff time for deployment and retrieval
7. Barriers do not impede on pedestrian traffic when placed in field
8. Ability to decorate barriers for different seasons and themes to provide a welcoming feel
The City purchased 16 of the Meridian Archer 1200 Anti Vehicle Barricades last year and has since designed, decorated, and are now implementing the barricades weekly at the north and south Higuera Street entrance to Farmer’s Market as well as other events when needed. Purchasing additional barricades will allow for a full closure of all Farmer’s Market entrances. The cost for these additional barricades were funded as part of the 2021-22 Mid-Year Budget.
Previous Council or Advisory Body Action
This funding was identified as part of the 2021-22 Mid-year Budget that was approved by the City Council.
Policy Context
The City of San Luis Obispo Municipal Code and Financial Management Manual designates the City Council as the approval authority for general goods with a value of $150,000 or higher.
Section 3.24.060 of the Municipal Code also list the bidding procedures required when making purchases for general goods. Due to the specialty nature of this product, it is currently only available from one manufacture. There are similar products on the market; however, staff has identified deployment timing, ADA and pedestrian access, and liability concerns with the other available products. Therefore, 3.24.060 (C) is applicable to this sole source purchase shown below:
3.24.060 Bidding procedures – Use of not required when.
Purchase of those items listed in Section 3.24.010 shall be by bid procedures set forth in this chapter. Such procedures may be dispensed with, at the discretion and judgment of the purchasing authority as to the best interests of the city, as follows:
A. When the amount to be expended is less than the bid requirement amount which shall be specified by resolution of the council;
Item 5g
B. When an emergency purchase is made to address a situation that creates an immediate and serious need for equipment, supplies, or services that cannot be met through normal purchasing procedures and where the lack of such equipment, supplies or services would seriously threaten the functioning of city government, the preservation of property, or the health or safety of any person;
C. When the item(s) to be purchased can be obtained from only one vendor or supplier;
D. When supplies or equipment have been uniformly adopted in the city or otherwise standardized;
E. When the purchase will be made cooperatively with one, or more, other units of government, or from a local dealer within the city limits that can provide the same brand, model and configuration of item(s) identified in cooperative purchase agreement(s) at or below the cooperative purchasing net cost within the same terms and conditions; F. When reasonably necessary for the preservation or protection of public peace, health, safety or welfare of persons or property; or G. When, given the indeterminate nature of the city’s need, a request for proposal will result in a more favorable and efficient comparison of supplies, equipment and/or services.
Public Engagement
Public engagement was conducted prior to the 2021-22 Mid-year Budget being adopted by the City Council.
CONCURRENCE
The preferred Anti-Vehicle Barriers have been shared with the City’s Police and Fire Departments, Transportation Engineering and Planning Program, Administration Department, and Downtown SLO, and all groups concur with the proposed barriers.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed purchase will have any effect on the environment (General Rule Exemption CEQA Guidelines Sec. 15061(b)(3)).

City of San Luis Obispo Sole Source Justification
Form
Meridian Rapid Defense Group
It is the policy of the City of San Luis Obispo to solicit quotations or bids for purchases of commodities or services for specified dollar amounts and to select vendors on a competitive basis (See City of San Luis Obispo Financial Management Manual, Section 201, Exhibit 201-B).
Pursuant to San Luis Obispo Municipal Code Chapter 3.24.060, certain acquisitions in which the products or services may only be obtained from a single source may be purchased without engaging in bidding procedures. Such Sole Source acquisitions must be justified in sufficient detail to explain the basis for suspending the usual competitive procurement process and approved by the approving authority before such a purchase is made.
1. What product or service is being requested? Why is it necessary? The product being purchased is Meridian Archer 1200 Anti-Vehicle Barriers. The specified barriers are movable and can be used at different locations and events throughout the City. These barriers are designed to stop unauthorized vehicles from entering restricting pedestrian areas, which will assist in keeping visitors safe while attending festivals.
2. Is this “brand” of product or services offered the only one that meets the City’s requirements? If yes, what is unique about the product/services?
Staff has researched other similar products and have found this product to be our preferred choice due to the ease of deployment and the limited footprint. The Archer 1200 can be quickly deployed or retrieved in an intersection in less than 10 minutes, with four-foot gaps allowed between barriers to provides for pedestrian and ADA access.
Other barriers that offer similar protection require staff to field construct and dismantle on each deployment, significantly increasing the amount of staff time required for event setup and tear-down.
The other barriers that require field set up are bolted together, making a long barrier that stretches the entire lanes of traffic, which impedes on pedestrian traffic, ADA access and would cause a liability of the City.
3. Is the product or service proprietary or is it available from various dealers? Have you verified this? This product is patented and only sold by the manufacture. Meridian Rapid Defense Group has verified no other vendors currently carry their product. As a government agency, the City is eligible for GSA Cooperative Purchasing pricing for the purchase.
4. Have other products/vendors been considered? If yes, which? and how did they fail to meet the City’s requirements?
The City has considered the installation of permanent bollards which are not being pursued due to the high installation and ongoing maintenance cost. The other brand of movable anti-vehicle barriers researched is manufactured by Mifram Security. These barriers provide similar protection; however, they need to be constructed and deconstructed in the field, which would have a long-term impact on staff resources. In addition to the staffing impact, these barriers must stretch the entire length of the roadway which impedes on pedestrian traffic, ADA access, and would create a liability to the City.
5. Is the purchase an upgrade or addition to an existing system or brand of products adopted citywide? If so, will purchase of this product avoid “switching” costs as opposed to purchasing another product or service (e.g., additional training required; data conversion; implementation of a new system; etc.)?
The City is currently using the Meridian Archer 1200 for the Higuera Street entrances to Farmers Market. Staff has received training on the barriers and will be able to utilize the current trailers to assist with the implementation of a full closure of Farmers Market.
6. Is this a request for services by a contractor with necessary, unique and critical knowledge of established City systems or programs? If so, will the use of the contractor’s services avoid other costs (e.g., significant staff time in compiling information, data transfers, etc.)? N/A
7. What is the quoted price for the product or services and is it reasonable (based on other products or services in the same field or based on historical pricing for the City for similar products or services)?
The price for 36 barricades, 2 trailers, and accessories is $331,279.73, which is consistent with other type of vehicle barricades.

FROM: Matt Horn, Public Works Director
Hai Nguyen, Senior Civil Engineer
VIA: Derek Johnson, City Manager
SUBJECT: ITEM 5h – AWARD CONTRACT FOR ROADWAY SEALING 2022 TO R.
BURKE CORPORATION
Discussion
The following Agenda Correspondence provides responses to questions received relate to contract award for Roadway Sealing 2022.
1. I notice that $200,000, the annual Active Transportation Funds, are recommended to be allocated to this resealing project. However, it is my understanding that the Active Transportation Committee already recommended that some of that funding ($75,000 or more) go toward a study of the Foothill Blvd area. How is it that we still have $200K for this project from that source of funds?
The Active Transportation Plan Implementation Capital Improvement Project account has funding distributions organized by several sub-tasks. There is one subtask to provide funding for “Area Sealing Projects Complete Street Components” with an annual allocation of $200,000—this is the funding source used to supplement the 2022 Roadway Sealing Project. Among the other sub-tasks, there is funding for “Bicycle Facility Improvements” with an annual allocation of $100,000.
This sub-task is the funding that the Active Transportation Committee recommended reserving the remaining 2021-22 balance (approximately $90,000) for preliminary design and analysis for a Foothill Boulevard Complete Street project.
That work is underway. See excerpt below from the 2021-23 Financial Plan. There is a current available balance of $886,632 in the Active Transportation Plan Implementation account (100502) and is sufficient to support the proposed work.
Item 5h. Roadway Sealing 2022 Page 2
2. Additionally, can you please describe to me what improvements will be made to the Madonna Inn Bike Path with these funds ($150,000)?
The Madonna Inn Pathway was identified for maintenance within the 2021-23 Financial Plan. The report authorizing the advertisement of Roadway Sealing 2022 dated 3/15/2022 incorporated maintenance work at Madonna Inn Pathway because overall lower unit costs will be realized for a larger scale maintenance treatment operation. The scope of work within Madonna Inn Pathway (Fernandez Lane to Madonna Inn) includes removal of existing striping and markings, slurry sealing to provide a watertight barrier, and restriping with thermoplastic striping and markings.
3. Lastly, aren’t the bike lanes and crossing on Marsh and Higuera already done with the 2021-22 improvements that have been completed downtown? The report authorizing the advertisement of Roadway Sealing 2022 dated 3/15/2022 described the work on Marsh and Higuera. Consistent with the Downtown Concept Plan and Active Transportation Plan, the 2022 sealing Project will reduce the number of auto travel lanes on Marsh and Higuera Streets between Santa Rosa and Nipomo Streets from three to two lanes in order to reduce illegal speeding and provide more street width for pedestrian and bicycle facilities, as well as existing and future parklets and sidewalk widening. Additionally, improvements on Marsh and Higuera Streets outside of the downtown core has been implemented as part of the 2021 Downtown Pavement Improvements project.
Due to weather conditions, the intersection of Marsh and Higuera was not slurry sealed as proposed in the 2021 Downtown Pavement Improvements Project. This intersection has only been temporarily striped and will be sealed and permanently striped with the Roadway Sealing 2022 project.

DISCUSSION
Background
On March 15, 2022, the City Council authorized staff to advertise for construction bids for the Roadway Sealing 2022 and to authorize the City Manager to award the contract if the lowest responsible bid was below the publicly disclosed funding amount of $2,600,000.
The project bid documents included a Base Bid and an Additive Alternative.
On May 12, 2022, two bids were received and opened (Attachment A). R. Burke Corporation provided the lowest responsive bid for the Base Bid and Additive Alternative A in the amount of $4,457,873. Since the lowest bid amount exceeds the delegated authority provided to the City Manager by $1,857,873, staff is returning to Council to request authorization to award the contract.
1 Contributing budget transfers described in Fiscal Impact Section
Item 5h
The large increase in construction costs can be attributed to the rising cost of construction materials and labor, which have seen cost increases of approximately 25% over the last calendar year (April 2021-April 20222). The cost for slurry sealing doubled as compared to bids received in May 2020 for the previous sealing project. Since asphalt emulsion is a key component of a slurry seal mixture, a large share of this price increase can be attributed to recent significant increases in oil prices.
Recommended funding, which required project deferrals, for these cost increases was presented with the 2022-23 Financial Plan Supplement on June 7, 2022. The detailed discussion occurred on page 85 and 101 of the budget document. With the adoption of the Financial Plan Supplement Council indicated its support for the budgetary changes in this reports’ recommendations.
The Contractor’s references, license, and registration with the Department of Industrial Relations have been verified. Staff has evaluated the bid and recommends contract award of the Base Bid and Additive Alternative A to R. Burke Corporation (Attachment B) and budget transfers be completed to fund the project.

Total $7,428,351 $5,550,000 $1,878,351 $
The estimated project costs by funding sources are reported in Attachment C. The Streets Reconstruction and Resurfacing account (90346) has a balance of $200,482 and will receive an additional $440,582 of SB1 Funding approved by Council on 4/19/2022. With the 2021-23 Financial Plan, the project account will receive $1,425,000 in General Fund and $1,049,877 in SB1 funding on July 1st. The total amount of SB1 Funding to support this project is from Council’s April 19, 2022 action that approved funding in the amount of $440,582 and planned budget appropriation from the 2021-23 Financial Plan in the amount of $1,049,877 for a total of $1,490,459.
Based on the unexpectedly high bid prices, staff identified additional funding sources as part of the 2022-23 Budget Supplement that will provide $1,585,000 to support the total project costs by using funds programed to other CIP projects that are not ready to construct3in Fiscal Year 2022-23. In total, $4,745,905 will be available in the Streets Reconstruction and Resurfacing Account for the project ($3,225,446 in General Funds and $1,490,459 in SB1 Funds).
Additionally, as identified in the 2022-23 Budget Supplement4, staff is seeking approval to reallocate $100,000 from the Jack House Roof and Windows Walk Railing account (1000075-24) and $214,525 from the South Street Median Landscaping account (1000037) to the project account (1000560) because these CIP projects are not ready to construct. As discussed in the FY22-23 Budget Supplement, deferral of these projects is recommended in order to address more urgent needs and provide funding for projects that have exceeded budget estimates (i.e. construction of Roadway Sealing 2022).
Deferral does not constitute cancellation, and funding will be requested to continue these projects when they are ready to construct and sufficient staffing resources are available to oversee them. Requested project deferrals are recommended as these projects currently have construction funding, and construction documents and design are not ready due to staffing levels.
3 FY22-23 CIP Supplement, Table C3, on Page 85.
4 FY22-23 CIP Supplement, Table C20, ID#15 on Page 101.
Item 5h
Due to the number of multi-modal transportation improvements proposed in this project, the Active Transportation Plan Implementation Account (100502) will contribute $200,000 in Fiscal Year 2022-23 towards this project to support the installation of protected bike lanes and priority pedestrian/bicycle crossings along Marsh and Higuera Streets identified as Tier 1 (highest-priority) project in the Active Transportation Plan.
Funding for curb ramp/bulbout improvements at the intersection of Higuera and Nipomo is proposed to come from the Sidewalk Annual Asset Maintenance Account (90849). This work will replace damaged sidewalk and incorporate design elements intended to improve pedestrian safety.
Funding for storm drain replacement work at the intersection of Higuera and Nipomo is proposed to come from the Storm Drains Annual Asset Maintenance Account (90742).
The account has a current balance of $300,225 and will be sufficient to support the total estimated cost of $120,000 for storm drain replacement work.
The Parking lot Maintenance account (1000031) has a current balance of $180,578 and will receive an additional $35,000 in Fiscal Year 2022-23. These funds will be sufficient to support the Islay Park Parking Lot maintenance work identified in this project.
The Pedestrian and Bicycle pathway Maintenance account (1000032) has a current balance of $5,775 and will receive an additional $150,000 in Fiscal Year 2022-23. These funds will be sufficient to support the Madonna Inn pathway maintenance work identified in this project.
Where asphalt pavement is replaced, the project will incorporate upgrades to water valve and sewer maintenance hole covers, which requires budget transfers to the project account as follows: Water Valve Cover Adjustments (91149) Fund totaling $10,000 and Sewer Maintenance Hole Cover Adjustments (1000084) totaling $10,000. This project does not have significant asphalt reconstruction and therefore impacts to existing water and sewer facilities is minimal.
ALTERNATIVES
Deny award of the contract. The City Council may choose to not award the contract and reject all bids. Staff does not recommend this option, further delay in maintenance activities would result in more expensive rehabilitation treatments being required in the future as well as further cost increases from market factors.
