24-4393
DATE: March 12, 2024 (Item No. 22)
TO: Board of Supervisors
FROM: Sara H. Cody, MD, Health Officer and Director of Public Health SUBJECT: California Department of Justice Tobacco Enforcement Grant
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Consider recommendations relating to the California Department of Justice Tobacco Enforcement Grant.
Possible action:
a. Ratify Grant Application submitted by the Public Health Department to the California Department of Justice relating to funds to support local efforts to address illegal sales of tobacco products to minors and increase compliance with local tobacco control policies in the amount of $1,216,296 for period November 1, 2023 through June 30, 2027. b. Approve Memorandum of Understanding with the California Department of Justice relating to grant funding to support local efforts to address illegal sales of tobacco products to minors and increase compliance with local tobacco control policies in an amount not to exceed $1,216,296 for period November 1, 2023 through June 30, 2027, that has been reviewed and approved by County Counsel as to form and legality.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS
Approval of the recommended actions will have no impact on the General Fund. The Public Health Department received an award letter from the California Department of Justice Tobacco Grant Program for Proposition 56 funds in the amount of $1,216,296 for November 1, 2023 through June 30, 2027.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Approved by voters in 2016, the California Healthcare, Research and Prevention Tobacco Tax Act of 2016 (Prop. 56) increased taxes on cigarettes and other tobacco products by $2.00 and established a Tobacco Enforcement Grant Program, administered by the California Department of Justice (DOJ). For Fiscal Year 2023-2024, an estimated $24.6 million was made available statewide to support local enforcement efforts to reduce the illegal sale of Board of Supervisors: Sylvia Arenas, Cindy Chavez, Otto Lee, Susan Ellenberg, S. Joseph Simitian Page 2 of 4 County Executive: James R. Williams
Agenda Date: March 12, 2024
tobacco products to underage individuals through enforcement and compliance interventions.
In response to the funding opportunity, the County of Santa Clara Public Health Department (PHD) submitted a joint proposal in partnership with multiple enforcement agencies from across the county, including the County of Santa Clara Department of Environmental Health (DEH), County Sheriff’s Office, and the cities of Campbell, Mountain View, Palo Alto, San Jose, Sunnyvale, and Santa Clara. Enforcement agencies contracted to do this work will conduct tobacco compliance checks at least twice per year at the point of sale (tobacco retail locations), aiming to check 480 retailers annually. In total, there are approximately 900 tobacco retailers located within these jurisdictions. All jurisdictions in the county were approached to participate in the joint proposal. Current funding received by PHD through Prop. 56 and Prop. 99 tobacco taxes is not allowed for local tobacco enforcement activities; therefore, this grant application fills a gap within our county.
The goal of the project is to reduce adolescent exposure and access to tobacco products, largely by reducing the percentage of youth who are able to access tobacco products through stores. This project solely focuses on tobacco retailer compliance strategies and does not include objectives or activities that focus on enforcement or penalties on youth or anyone in possession of tobacco products. The objectives to achieve these goals are as follows:
1. Conduct one to four tobacco decoy operations per year at licensed retailers, prioritizing retailers with previous tobacco sales violations, in each of the nine jurisdictions participating in the project, with a goal of checking at least 120 retailers per quarter or 480 annually.
2. Optimize the County’s robust enforcement and compliance data tracking system, with a public facing component, that tracks compliance check outcomes from tobacco enforcement operations by store location, city, date, type of violation, and violation outcome.
3. Increase compliance with state and local tobacco retailing laws through tobacco retailer education.
4. Continue to convene the county tobacco prevention task force and conduct meetings to provide trainings and address tobacco-related issues.
The recommended action supports PHD’s Strategic Plan priorities to engage partners and communities to improve community health. The underlying goals of these priorities are to reduce chronic disease prevalence and disparities, and to increase the number of healthy live years and reduce the burden of illness by establishing a more expansive and coordinated tobacco enforcement and compliance program to reduce youth access to tobacco products.
Reasons for Retroactive Request
Board of Supervisors: Sylvia Arenas, Cindy Chavez, Otto Lee, Susan Ellenberg, S. Joseph Simitian Page 3 of 4 County Executive: James R. Williams
Agenda Date: March 12, 2024
In May 2023, DOJ released the notice of funding opportunity. In June 2023, PHD submitted its application and was notified of award in October 2023. In December 2023, PHD received the agreement from DOJ with a retroactive date of November 1, 2023, which precluded PHD from bringing the agreement to the Board prior to its effective date.
CHILD IMPACT
The recommended action will have a positive impact on children and youth through reducing their access and exposure to tobacco products.
SENIOR IMPACT
The recommended action will have a positive impact on seniors. A reduction in tobacco use leads to less secondhand smoke exposure.
SUSTAINABILITY IMPLICATIONS
The recommended action with have a positive impact on sustainability. A reduction in tobacco use leads to reduced impact from environmental impacts from tobacco waste, litter, and secondhand smoke impacts.
BACKGROUND
The mission of the County of Santa Clara Public Health Department’s Tobacco-Free Communities (TFC) Program is to improve the health of all residents and the workforce in the county by reducing illness and premature death attributed to the use of tobacco products.
Nearly one in four teens in the county have vaped and 7.7% currently use e-cigarettes. More than half of teens who currently vape reported purchasing their own vaping product, with over one in five of this group saying they buy them directly from a store, primarily vape and tobacco shops. There more than 1,000 tobacco retailers in the county, more than half in San Jose alone, and one in four are within two blocks of a school.
Through the 2021-2024 DOJ grant award, the County was able to re-establish a robust compliance program, steadily increasing the number of stores checked each year: 127 stores in 2022; 359 stores in 2023; 68 stores as of February 1, 2024. Despite the compliance check activities occurring, PHD and DEH continues to see high illegal sales rates, showing a need for additional strategies to target problematic retailers and to use local tobacco retail permit ordinance penalties as further deterrents.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
The Public Health Department would not be able implement the California Department of Justice Tobacco Enforcement Grant.
STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
Board of Supervisors: Sylvia Arenas, Cindy Chavez, Otto Lee, Susan Ellenberg, S. Joseph Simitian Page 4 of 4 County Executive: James R. Williams
Agenda Date: March 12, 2024
The Clerk of the Board of Supervisors is requested to please obtain the President’s and Clerk’s original signature on two copies of the Memorandum of Understanding and notify Jasmine Luna of the Public Health Department. Upon execution by the DOJ, the Public Health Department will return one fully executed agreement packet to the Clerk of the Board.

The County is a public agency subject to the disclosure requirements of the California Public Records Act (“CPRA”).

before the County is required to respond to the CPRA request. If Contractor fails to obtain such remedy within the time the County is required to respond to the CPRA request, County may disclose the requested information.
Contractor further agrees that it shall defend, indemnify and hold County harmless against any claim, action or litigation (including but not limited to all judgments, costs, fees, and attorney’s fees) that may result from denial by County of a CPRA request for information arising from any representation, or any action (or inaction), by the Contractor.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on a Contract Between the County of Santa Clara and the City of Santa Clara to Provide a Senior Nutrition Congregate Meals Program and Related Budget Amendments
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clara (City) works collaboratively with the County of Santa Clara (County) to provide a Senior Nutrition Congregate Meals Program (Program) at the Santa Clara Senior Center.
The Program is designed for seniors, age 60 and over, serving a basic need for lower-income households and special needs populations. The goals of the Program are to reduce hunger and food insecurity, increase socialization, and promote the well-being of older adults. The Program also serves as a gateway to other supportive community programs and services at the Senior Center.
DISCUSSION
On May 6, 2024, the County authorized a contract with the City of Santa Clara for the provision of a Senior Nutrition Congregate Meals Program for FY 2024/25 effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025 (Attachment 1).
The Contract has a total program cost of $189,478 for FY 2024/25. The County will reimburse the City a maximum amount of $139,872, 73.8% of the total program cost. This amount assumes the City will provide 18,600 meals (75 meals average per day for 248 days of service at a rate of $7.52 per meal). As in previous years, the Agreement requires a City match in the form of volunteer hours and City funding. Of the remaining Program expenditures, 14.7% will be offset by a City match of $27,756 in the form of volunteer hours and 11.5% will be offset by a General Fund allocation of $21,851 (Attachment 2).
The purpose of this item is to seek approval and authorization for the City Manager to execute the agreement for FY 2024/25 and any related budget amendments.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) in that it is a governmental organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.

19. RESTRICTION OF DISCLOSURES
Any reports, analysis, studies, drawings, information or data generated as a result of this contract are to be provided to COUNTY prior to public dissemination.
20. MEAL VERIFICATION AND ERROR RATES
CONTRACTOR must create and provide accurate electronic and paper documentation for the total number of meals provided and invoiced each month.
Paper documentation of the number of monthly meals provided includes both monthly reports, New Client Logs, Guest and Staff meal logs, and daily sign-in sheet for the meals distributed. Monthly reports are submitted to the COUNTY per section 11(d) above. Sign-in sheets are described in the Senior Nutrition Program policies and procedures manual and must be submitted to COUNTY monthly. Sign-in sheets and New Client Logs are verification of the number of meals included on the monthly reports and the total number of signatures and reported meals must match.
COUNTY will not reimburse for meals reported on the monthly report for which there is no signature on a sign-in sheet or signatures on the new client log.
Electronic documentation is described in section 11(a) above and includes electronic meal data collected through the use of a scanning device or entry into a COUNTYprovided system. Electronic data report may be accepted by COUNTY as back-up documentation for the monthly report in lieu of a sign-in sheet. COUNTY will not reimburse for meals reported on the monthly report for which there is no electronic documentation unless otherwise verified in a manner acceptable to COUNTY, such as with a new client log.
Electronic data also must be reconcilable to Sourcewise’s AssureCare database. If electronic documentation is not reconcilable to Sourcewise’s Assurecare database an error rate is created. If CONTRACTOR’s electronic data exceeds an error rate of 5%, COUNTY may withhold a percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice equivalent to the percentage of the error rate exceeding the 5% threshold. For example, if CONTRACTOR has an error rate of 23%, COUNTY may withhold 18% (23% - 5%) of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for that month. However, if Sourcewise reimburses COUNTY for the meals that create this error rate, then the County will not withhold any percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for the error rate but still may withhold payment for the other documentation issues listed in this section.
21. GRIEVANCE POLICY
a. CONTRACTOR must establish a written grievance process for reviewing and attempting to resolve complaints of older individuals receiving services funded DRAFT

order to meet the needs of
this community services
need to include ethnically
diverse cuisine served in

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Urgency Declaration and Action to Approve Expenditures of $563,103 and Ratify an Agreement with C2R Engineering for the Emergency Pavement Repair Project on Las Palmas Drive, Loyola Drive, Buchanan Drive, and Encina Way
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The City’s Water & Sewer Utilities Department (Department) maintains a potable water distribution system consisting of approximately 335 miles of distribution pipelines, 21 active groundwater wells, and 7 storage tanks totaling 28.8 million gallons (MG) of storage. To provide the highest level of services to its customers, the Department implements an ongoing program to replace aging water infrastructure. In the past year, City Water crews installed just over 10,000 linear feet (LF), to achieve the Department goal for the program.
Following the completion of the Water and Sewer Utilities Department’s work, temporary pavement is typically installed until permanent pavement repairs can be scheduled by the Streets Division of the Department of Public Works (DPW). Temporary pavement is used as a short-term measure until permanent pavement is installed. Over a short period of time, temporary pavement deteriorates, especially when it is in place for periods exceeding 90 days or in wet weather conditions.
Most recently, staff replaced the aging water mains along Las Palmas Drive, Loyola Drive, Buchanan Drive, and Encina Way (collectively, Project Limits) with new ductile iron water main pipes. The roadways within the Project Limits see frequent traffic from vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians. Las Palmas Drive and Buchanan Drive, connect directly from El Camino Real to Benton Street, both major thoroughfares through the City and toward Central Park and Santa Clara High School.
DISCUSSION
Temporary pavement was installed within the Project Limits per the normal procedure. However, due to the increased volume of water main installations, conflicts with seasonal commitments, staffing vacancies, and the large amount of trench repair being turned over for final pavement at the same time, DPW was not able to schedule permanent pavement repairs within the required timeframes.
Although City Water crews continually maintained the temporary pavement, the scope and rate of deterioration exceeded staff’s ability to maintain the sites and the wet weather conditions City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/21/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-519 Agenda Date: 6/25/2024
experienced during the fall and winter seasons further deteriorated the temporary pavement sites.
The Department received complaints from the community about safety concerns within the Project Limits for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians to navigate safely. At the end of 2023, the temporary pavement within the Project Limits had been in place for 220 days. The prolonged presence of temporary pavement was significantly deteriorated, leading to uneven surfaces and abrupt changes in grade. This deterioration posed a potential serious and an immediate threat to the safety of residents and their property.
To mitigate the emergency, staff directly solicited bids on February 2, 2024 from three companies to perform the Emergency Pavement Repair Project at Las Palmas Drive, Loyola Drive, Buchanan Drive, and Encina Way. Three bids were received on February 16, 2024, with the following results:
Contractor Total Bid
C2R Engineering $467,875
West Valley Construction Company $489,920
O’Grady Paving, Inc. $597,515
On February 16, 2024, the City awarded the work to C2R Engineering, Inc. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The City issued a purchase order for the emergency pavement repair on February 28, 2024 (Attachment 3). C2R Engineering, Inc. satisfactorily completed the repairs on April 11, 2024. The final cost of the repair was $536,103 which includes a change order of $68,228 to accommodate the actual quantities measured in the field after placement of pavement.
Given the threat to public health and safety, staff recommends that the City Council deem the Emergency Pavement Repair Project at Las Palmas Drive, Loyola Drive, Buchanan Drive, and Encina Way as an “urgent necessity” under section 1310 of the City Charter, which allows for the letting of public works contracts “without advertising for bids, if such work shall be deemed by the City Council to be of urgent necessity for the preservation of life, health or property, and [the contract] shall be authorized by motion passed by at least four affirmative votes and containing a declaration of the facts constituting such urgency.”
City Charter Section 1310 also requires that the City Council make a declaration of the basis for the “urgent necessity” for foregoing the standard public works bidding process. This report constitutes the declaration required by that section and requests Council approval to expend the funds and ratify the agreement with C2R Engineering, Inc. for the urgent repair.
For the Council’s information, street replacement and repair qualify as a “public works” contract subject to the Charter provisions above. A separate agenda item concerns the emergency repair and replacement of water pumps at the Lick Mill storm drain pump station. Equipment repair and replacement do not qualify as “public works,” and so instead of utilizing the “urgent necessity” provisions of the Charter, that item provides a “post-emergency report” to the Council pursuant to the procurement ordinance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The actions being considered are subject to a statutory exemption from the California Environmental City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 3 Printed on 6/21/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-519 Agenda Date: 6/25/2024
Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to California Public Resources Code section 21080(b), because they involve urgent repairs to public service facilities necessary to maintain service.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the pavement repair was $536,103. There are sufficient funds in the Distribution System Replacement and Restoration project in the Water Utility Capital Fund to cover all repairs and related costs.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department, the Department of Public Works, and the City Attorney’s Office.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Public contact was made by posting the Council agenda on the City’s official-notice bulletin board outside City Hall Council Chambers. A complete agenda packet is available on the City’s website and in the City Clerk’s Office at least 72 hours prior to a Regular Meeting and 24 hours prior to a Special Meeting. A hard copy of any agenda report may be requested by contacting the City Clerk’s Office at (408) 615-2220, email [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> or at the public information desk at any City of Santa Clara public library.
RECOMMENDATION
Deem the Emergency Pavement Repair Project at Las Palmas Drive, Loyola Drive, Buchanan Drive, and Encina Way an urgent necessity under section 1310 of the City Charter, because these roadways encounter frequent vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic and further delay in permanent repairs to the pavement along these streets would pose public health consequences and a threat to safety of residents and property, and ratify the agreement with C2R Engineering in the amount of $467,875 plus change orders in the amount of $68,228 for a total not-to-exceed amount of $536,103.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendments to Ten (10) Vendor Agreements for Recreational Programming Services in the Parks & Recreation Department for a revised not-to-exceed aggregate maximum compensation amount of $6,206,130, subject to budget appropriations, in final forms approved by the City Attorney.
COUNCIL PILLAR
Enhance Community Engagement and Transparency
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The Parks & Recreation Department (Department) manages and maintains the City's park system, recreation facilities, pools, and cemeteries, as well as provides recreation programs, services, and activities that contribute to the vitality, health, and wellness of the community. The Department’s recreation programs serve over 30,000 participants per year and generated over $2.5 million in revenue in FY 2022/23. Programs are offered at various program facilities across the City and promoted through the Department’s published seasonal activity guides.
In November 2018, the City conducted a Request for Proposal (RFP) process to identify qualified vendors to provide recreational programming services. On June 25, 2019, the City Council approved the execution of eighteen (18) agreements with an initial term of five years and five (5) one-year options, extending the terms of the agreements through June 30, 2029 (Attachment 1). These agreements provided for program revenue to be split between the City and the vendor, with the vendor receiving 60% to 70% of gross revenue per participant.
In addition, the original Council approval included authorization to increase the maximum compensation of each individual agreement up to 15% above the originally approved maximum compensation, subject to budget appropriations.
Of the original 18 vendor agreements approved by the City Council in June 2019 four (4) of the vendors are no longer working with the City (Chaparral Country Corporation, Code for Fun, Lil Sluggers, and Renee Ramsey). At this time, the Department of Parks and Recreation would like to amend the agreements with the remaining fourteen (14) vendors to provide for a single, fiveyear extension in the term of the agreements rather than proceed with 5, one-year options as provided for in the original agreement. This action will maintain continuity of services and provide efficiencies in administering the agreements with these vendors who have provided high-quality, diverse, and specialized programming options to the community over the term of their respective agreements.
Four (4) of the proposed amended agreements would have a not-to-exceed compensation amount City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 4 Printed on 6/21/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-472 Agenda Date: 6/25/2024
that are within the City Manager’s signature authority and therefore, are not included in this report.
These four (4) vendors are as follows: Justin Fujihara, Play-Well Technologies, Sports, Fitness & Karate, and Starrz Dance Academy.
The proposed amendments for the remaining ten (10) agreements will cause the not-to-exceed compensation amount to surpass the City Manager’s signature authority and, therefore, are presented to the City Council for consideration and approval.
DISCUSSION
During the current term of the agreements, (ending June 30, 2024), the ten (10) vendors have offered popular recreation enrichment programs to the public. The public has shown a very high level of enthusiasm for participation in these programs and activities and the Department has built a solid partnership with these vendors.
The proposed amendments increase the total not-to-exceed maximum compensation of the ten (10) vendor agreements by $2,526,130, from $3,680,000 to $6,206,130, effective July 1, 2024. The ten (10) amendments are required to continue providing these programs into the extended terms set forth in each agreement as indicated in the agreement amendments (Attachments 2-12) and are subject to budget appropriations in subsequent years. The amendments are funded by registration fees collected for the programs in the General Fund and require no budget amendments.
Please note that amendments were executed with seven (7) of the vendors in 2020 to allow for the addition of Virtual Programming Guidelines (VPG) and a corresponding adjustment to the schedule of fees (Amendment #1). The VPG provided for the provision of virtual classes to be offered as well as guidelines to be implemented related to hosting platforms, privacy, and classroom safety. Included in the amendments were a change in the revenue split for in-person programs from 60%-70% to an 80%-20% split for the vendor for virtual programming. As programs transitioned back to in-person programming, the revenue split reverted to the original agreement split.
The following Vendors executed Amendment No.1:
· Kimberly Davey
· Guru’s Educational Services
· Joyful Melodies
· Mad Science of the Bay Area
· Teacher Sean’s Music Factory
· Josh Rubietta
· Linnea Sheehy
The remaining three (3) vendors (Kidz Love Soccer, Kodenkan Jujitsu and Skyhawks Youth Sports) did not provide virtual programming and consequently, did not execute an amendment to do so.
Table 1 summarizes the proposed amendments included as part of this recommendation for City Council approval.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378 (b)(4) in that it is a fiscal activity that does not involve commitment to a specific project which may result in potential significant impact on the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed amendments increase the total maximum compensation by $2,526,130, from $3,680,000 to $6,206,130, for the 5-year extension through June 30, 2029. Funding for the proposed amendments is offset by program revenues based on the revenue split between the vendor and the City as executed in the vendor agreements. Per the agreements, the vendors retain 60-70% and the City retains 30-40% of gross program revenues to cover City costs for marketing, facility-use and program administration. The program costs and revenues are factored into the annual budget.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department and the City Attorney’s Office.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Approval of Agreements with 18 Recreational Instruction Providers for Programs and Services through City’s Parks & Recreation Department for Five-Year Terms
BACKGROUND
The Parks & Recreation Department manages and maintains the City's park system, recreation facilities, pools and cemeteries as well as provides recreation programs, services and activities that contribute to the vitality, health and wellness of the community. The Department’s Recreation programs serve over 30,000 customers per year and generate approximately $2.6 million in revenue.
Program offerings are promoted through the City’s Activity Guide, which is developed and published three times annually. Program registration is conducted online, as well as in person and by mail.
The City currently has agreements with over fifteen contractual program vendors (Contractor) who provide a variety of fee-based recreation programs and services that are priced at market rate for the region. The program revenue is split between the contractor and City. Contractors typically retain between 60% and 80% of gross revenue per participant, while the City retains the remaining balance that recovers City costs for marketing, facility use, and program administration.
The City is interested in greater transparency, competitive procurement practices, and more efficient delivery of services. Formerly, recreation contractor agreements were executed seasonally. The proposed practice is one agreement per contractor for a five-year term, with a contingency for seasonal program adjustments.
DISCUSSION
Request for Proposals and Selection
On November 6, 2018, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to select qualified vendors to provide recreational services. The various recreation programs and service categories were consolidated into one RFP with the goal of creating a pool of contractors whom are eligible to provide recreational services as needed. The City published the RFP using BidSync, the City’s eprocurement tool. In addition, the City contacted firms that are known to provide such services, with instructions on how to register on BidSync and how to submit a proposal. Proposers were allowed to propose only for service offerings consistent with their area(s) of expertise. A total of fifty-five (55) vendors viewed the RFP, and eighteen (18) proposals were received.
Evaluation
The proposals were evaluated by a three-member team from the Parks & Recreation Department.
Each team member independently evaluated the proposals. The panel determined that each of the eighteen (18) submitted proposals was responsive and met the City’s requirements. The Contractors City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 4 Printed on 4/27/2023
powered by Legistar™
19-456 Agenda Date: 6/25/2019
selected provide a variety of recreational programs and services across multiple categories including, but not limited to: art, enrichment, dance, martial arts, aquatics, and various sports and special interest classes.
Notice of Intended Award
A Notice of Intended Award (NOIA) announcing the City’s recommended contractors was published on February 8, 2019. The RFP process included a ten-day protest period, which commenced with the issuance of the NOIA and ended on February 18, 2019. No protests were received.
Pending Council’s approval, the Agreements (see Table 1 below) will begin with the Fall 2019 recreation season for a five-year term, provide flexible but stable programming for City residents and deliver the most effective and efficient services within the City’s recreation facility capacity and constraints. The program is revenue generating. Depending upon actual registration, the total gross revenue generated will be over $1 million annually and $5.6 million over the five-year contractual period, of which the City retains about 30% on average. It is estimated that the total annual compensation for the Contractors listed will be approximately in the amount of $907,200 and the total five-year amount will be $4,536,000, or about 70% of gross revenue. While the estimated, not to exceed compensation amount for each agreement is based on the anticipated full enrollment for all activities, actual Contractor compensation is based on the actual number of participants registered. If minimum registration numbers are not met, the class will be cancelled, the Contractor will not receive compensation for the cancelled class, and registrants will be refunded.

FISCAL IMPACT
All funding for the agreements is generated from program revenue collected at the time of registration. The City retains 25-37% of gross program revenue per proposed agreement and the Contractors retain 63-75%. Depending upon actual registration, the total gross revenue generated during the initial term will be over $1 million annually and $5.6 million over the five-year contractual period, of which the City will retain about 30% on average. It is estimated that the total annual compensation to the recreation Contractors listed will be approximately $907,200 and the total fiveyear amount will be $4,536,000, or about 70% of gross revenue.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement with Accela, Inc. to Purchase Additional Licenses for Land Management Software and Increase the Maximum Compensation by $235,872.25 for a Maximum Contract Compensation of $2,875,172.25 and Approve the Related Budget Amendment
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High-Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
On August 21, 2018, the City Council authorized staff to execute an agreement with Accela, Inc. (Accela) to purchase a land management software system called Civic Platform. Land management software provides a centralized platform for planning, permitting, licensing, and related activities.
City staff use Civic Platform to support a variety of service areas:
· Building, Planning, and Housing & Community Services Divisions for online permit submittal and payment services, plan review, inspection scheduling, affordable housing tracking, fee collection, and reporting.
· Fire Department for online permit submittal and payment services, plan review, operational permit inspections, and internal reporting tools.
· Land and Property Development Division of Public Works for processing and tracking site clearances, subdivision maps, title documents, and encroachment permits. · Street Division-Stormwater Division of Public Works for code enforcement, inspections, fee collection, and reports.
· Water and Sewer Utilities Department for plan review and fee collection. · Silicon Valley Power for plan review, fee collection, and meter release processes. · Police Department for online submittal of abandoned vehicle abatement reporting by staff and members of the public, and the ability for personnel to make computer-aided dispatch audio requests.
The Accela Civic Platform permitting system went live in August 2021, and the City has experienced numerous benefits from its use. The integrated system allows for citywide collaboration, improving business processes and customer service by streamlining plan review, approval, and information sharing. Technological enhancements, such as a public permitting online portal, mobility through apps, and 24/7 availability from anywhere, have also been implemented.
DISCUSSION
Amendment No. 2 increases the number of named user licenses to address increased usage and City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 6 Printed on 6/21/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-1141 Agenda Date: 6/25/2024
adds new public safety shift-based licenses. The shift-based licenses have a lower cost per license and are intended to account for the unique hours/shifts of the public safety work.
Named User Licenses for Land Development
The agreement with Accela requires the City to purchase a named user license for each user. A named user license provides unlimited access to the licensed software for the individual user. When the City originally purchased the software in 2018, the Community Development Department (CDD) estimated a need for 140 named user licenses for City staff. Following the launch of the Civic Platform in the fall of 2021, the City required additional licenses for the platform since the use of the system had increased beyond what was originally anticipated. This widespread adoption by multiple City departments drove the need for additional named user licenses. In December 2021, the City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to increase the number of licenses from 140 to 240. This citywide expansion improved efficiency in plan reviews and inter-departmental coordination of permit applications. Additionally, the expanded use provided greater transparency in the plan review process, contributing to a higher level of customer service.
Adoption of the Accela Civic Platform continues to increase as departments identify new use cases to automate City services and improve efficiencies. Additionally, the City is filling vacancies, and these positions will need licenses.
The proposed Amendment No. 2 increases the number of named user licenses by 41, bringing the total number of licenses to 281 from the current 240 licenses per Amendment No. 1. As outlined in Table 1, 260 of the licenses would be attributed to specific departments while the remaining 21 would be available as a contingency to address future needs.

Staff actively manages the assignment of named user licenses citywide. When there are changes to staffing, licenses are re-assigned to new users.
Shift-Based Licenses for Public Safety
The Fire Department’s Code Enforcement module, designed for use by the Community Risk Reduction and Field Operations Divisions, is included in the original Accela contract. Accela will modernize the Divisions’ inspection operations by replacing fragmented databases with a unified platform already employed by the Community Risk Reduction Division for development-related operations. This transition will significantly enhance the integration and communication with both internal teams and external customers.
To fully implement this integration, the Fire Department is requesting 59 new shift-based licenses for the Field Operations Division and Fire and Police Communications. These licenses are tailored to meet the specific needs of the departments’ emergency response personnel, accommodating their varied work schedules and shared computer usage. With these licenses, the Field Operations personnel will be equipped to conduct inspections and manage critical code enforcement notifications across departments. Fire and Police Communication personnel will use the licenses to access essential emergency response information required by emergency responders during time-sensitive operations.

Agreement Term
The current agreement will expire on November 30, 2025. Staff expects to bring forth an amendment or new agreement to extend the term at a later point in time. This allows staff more time to negotiate with Accela while enabling business operations to grow.
The approval of Amendment No. 2 will increase staff productivity and enhance customer service for the City’s permitting and fire occupancy process. By allowing expanded use of the Accela Civic Platform system, staff can better coordinate City activities, enhance internal and external communication, and provide more transparency into the process.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fee for the additional named user licenses is consistent with the pricing outlined in the agreement at $2,073 per user/per year in the sixth year, with set increases each year over the remaining term of the contract. The shift-based license fee is $1,240 per device/per year in the sixth year of the agreement, with set increases each year over the remaining term of the contract. Through November 2025, the purchase of additional licenses will increase the maximum, not-to-exceed compensation by $235,872.25 for a revised maximum compensation amount of $2,875,172.25 as outlined in Attachment 2 (License Not-To-Exceed Breakdown By Agreement and Year). The FY 2024/25 budget for Accela licenses is $570,889 and is included in the Non-Departmental budget in the General Fund, which is subject to the approval of the FY 2024/25 operating budget. With the proposed increase recommended in Amendment No. 2, an additional $76,045 is required for FY 2024/25. The ongoing costs of the increased licensing will be factored into the budget development process.
