REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Delegation of Authority to the City Manager to Negotiate and Execute a Western Systems Power Pool Renewable Energy Credit Transaction Confirmation with the Northern California Power Agency
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) is a public Joint Powers Agency formed in 1968 under California’s Joint Exercise of Powers Act (Cal Gov. Code §§ 6500 et. seq.), whose members include the cities of Alameda, Biggs, Gridley, Healdsburg, Lodi, Lompoc, Palo Alto, Redding, Roseville, Santa Clara-Silicon Valley Power, Shasta Lake and Ukiah, as well as the Bay Area Rapid Transit District, Port of Oakland, the Truckee Donner Public Utility District, and the Plumas-Sierra Rural Electric Cooperative.
For over five decades, the NCPA has constructed, operated, and maintained a fleet of power plants that provide reliable and affordable electricity to more than 700,000 Californians. The NCPA made a major investment in renewable energy in the early 1980s when it developed two geothermal power plants and a 250MW hydroelectric facility. Forty years later, these resources continue to generate reliable, emission-free electricity for its member communities.
The NCPA’s mix of geothermal, hydroelectric, and natural gas resources are well positioned to help its members achieve California’s policy of a 60% Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) by 2030.
Even though the NCPA has an extensive portfolio of resources, on occasion individual members of the NCPA fall short of the RPS compliance requirements and seek to shore up these shortfalls through other NCPA members or through the Renewable Energy Credit (REC) marketplace.
The NCPA initiated a request for offers for one (1) megawatt-hour (MWh) of Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS), Portfolio Content Category 1 RECs (PCC1 RECs) for a term of 10 years for the NCPA members Biggs and Gridley. Silicon Valley Power (SVP) offered to sell its projected surplus of PCC1 RECs, which the NCPA has accepted. Both parties are members of the Western Systems Power Pool (WSPP), which is an organization of electric wholesale market entities that have developed and utilizes a standardized power agreement (WSPP Agreement) to execute trading opportunities. Through the use of standardized contract terms, the WSPP Agreement facilitates transactions to occur without constant renegotiation of standard terms and conditions, thereby promoting liquidity in the market. The proposed Transaction Confirmation provides transactionspecific terms and relies on the WSPP Agreement for base terms and conditions, except as specifically modified in the confirmation.

DISCUSSION
SVP currently has excess RECs available to meet approximately 87,600MWh of RECs over the 10- year contract. SVP is continually adding renewable energy to the resource portfolio with approximately 1,400MW contracted to come online in the next 3 years and another projected 1,400MW of potential resources in the contracting pipeline. SVP will need to procure additional projects to generate both energy and RECs to meet the State’s Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) targets in the future. The sale of surplus RECs to entities like the NCPA, during periods of excess supply, provides valuable revenue for SVP. In addition to the sales of surplus RECs at market rates, the sales will also assist two other NCPA members with meeting their regulatory obligations.
SVP recommends that the City Council authorize the sales of RECs to the NCPA over a term period of 10 years through the WSPP Agreement and REC Transaction Confirmation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to section 15378(b)(5) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations in that it is an administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
SVP estimates that the revenue received from the sales of the RECs will be approximately $306,600 a year. Once the transaction confirmation is executed and the start date for the sales of RECs is determined, the revenue will be included in SVP’s annual revenue budget and 10-year forecast through the regular budget process.
COORDINATION
This Report has been coordinated with the Finance Department and 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.

RECOMMENDATION
1. Authorize the City Manager or designee to negotiate and execute a Transaction Confirmation under the Western System Power Pool Agreement between the Northern California Power Agency and the City of Santa Clara for the sale of Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) over a period of 10 years on the terms presented in this report and is subject to the review and approval as to form by the City Attorney; and
2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to take any actions as necessary to implement and administer the Transaction Confirmation and negotiate and execute future amendments, subject to the appropriation of funds and the review and approval as to form by the City Attorney.

Settlements and Payment:
Purchaser and Seller understand and agree that either or both Purchaser and Seller may use, at their option, an Agent for purposes of invoicing and payment.
Energy: To simplify the scheduling and settlement process based on the current CAISO market scheduling and settlement protocols, whereby CAISO will pay the Seller for the value of the Energy produced and delivered by the Project(s) at the Delivery Point on behalf of Purchaser, the Parties agree that Seller shall schedule and deliver an amount of Energy consistent with the Contract Quantity during the Delivery Period with and to the CAISO at the Delivery Point(s), and Seller shall receive payment for the Energy from the CAISO for such delivery based on the CAISO Locational Marginal Price. Consequently, and consistent with applicable netting provisions of the Master Agreement, Purchaser and Seller hereby agree to net the payment for Energy Seller receives from the CAISO against the Contract Price, such that the net payment Seller shall receive from Purchaser shall be calculated as follows:
{D0450077.DOCX / 1}4
Payment Due from Purchaser to Seller = Delivered and Accepted Contract Quantity * REC Contract Price.
Such payments received by Seller from the CAISO will be credited in full satisfaction of Purchaser’s payment obligation for Project Energy under this Confirmation.
RECs: Purchaser shall pay Seller for transferred RECs within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of Seller’s invoice subsequent to the transfer of RECs, or the 20th day of the month, whichever is later.

Civ. Code section 3426 et seq.), or otherwise protected from disclosure pursuant to an exemption to the California Public Records Act (Government Code Sections 6254 and 6255). In order to designate information as confidential, the Disclosing Party must clearly stamp and identify the specific portion of the material designated with the word “Confidential”. The Parties agree not to over-designate material as confidential. Over-designation would include stamping whole agreements, entire pages or series of pages as confidential that clearly contain information that is not confidential.

The Disclosing Party shall be solely responsible for taking whatever legal steps are necessary to protect information deemed by it to be Confidential Information and to prevent release of information to the Requestor by the Receiving Party. If the Disclosing Party takes no such action after receiving the foregoing notice from the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party shall be permitted to comply with the Requestor’s demand and is not required to defend against it.
If required by any law, statute, ordinance, a court, Governmental Authority or agency having jurisdiction over a Party, including the California Public Records Act, that Party may release Confidential Information, or a portion thereof, as required by the Applicable Law, statute, ordinance, decision, order or regulation. A Party may disclose Confidential Information to accountants in connection with audits.

FERC Standard of
Review; MobileSierra Waiver: (a) Absent the agreement of all Parties to the proposed change, the standard of review for changes to any rate, charge, classification, term or condition of this Agreement, whether proposed by a Party (to the extent that any waiver in subsection (b) below is unenforceable or ineffective as to such Party), a non-party or FERC acting sua sponte, shall solely be the “public interest” application of the “just and reasonable” standard of review set forth in United Gas Pipe Line Co. v. Mobile Gas Service Corp., 350 U.S. 332 (1956) and Federal Power Commission v. Sierra Pacific Power Co., 350 U.S. 348 (1956) and clarified by Morgan Stanley Capital Group, Inc. v.
Public Util. Dist. No. 1 of Snohomish, 554 U.S. 527 (2008), and NRG Power Marketing LLC v. Maine Public Utility Commission, 558 U.S. 527 (2010). (b) In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing subsection (a), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Party, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any rights {D0450077.DOCX / 1}8
it can or may have, now or in the future, whether under §§ 205 and/or 206 of the Federal Power Act or otherwise, to seek to obtain from FERC by any means, directly or indirectly (through complaint, investigation or otherwise), and each hereby covenants and agrees not at any time to seek to so obtain, an order from FERC changing any section of this Agreement specifying the rate, charge, classification, or other term or condition agreed to by the Parties, it being the express intent of the Parties that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Party shall unilaterally seek to obtain from FERC any relief changing the rate, charge, classification, or other term or condition of this Agreement, notwithstanding any subsequent changes in applicable law or market conditions that may occur. In the event it were to be determined that applicable law precludes the Parties from waiving their rights to seek changes from FERC to their market-based power sales contracts (including entering into covenants not to do so) then this subsection (b) shall not apply, provided that, consistent with the foregoing subsection (a), neither Party shall seek any such changes except solely under the “public interest” application of the “just and reasonable” standard of review and otherwise as set forth in the foregoing section (a).

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendments to Agreement with Principal Bank for Investment Portfolio Custody Services to the City
COUNCIL PILLAR
Manage Strategically Our Workforce Capacity and Resources
BACKGROUND
In July 2020, subsequent to a formal competitive solicitation process, the City Council approved an agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (Wells Fargo) to provide investment portfolio custody services for the City of Santa Clara’s (City) securities portfolio through Wells Fargo’s Institutional Retirement and Trust (IRT) business division. The Wells Fargo agreement, inclusive of all terms and conditions, was subsequently assigned to Principal Bank (Principal) following the acquisition of Wells Fargo’s IRT business division by Principal.
It is crucial to obtain a trusted financial institution to act as an independent third-party custodian to protect and oversee City’s invested assets. The custody services provided include, but are not limited to, settlement, safekeeping, and reporting of the City’s investment securities portfolio, which is managed by PFM Asset Management, the City’s external investment manager in accordance with the City’s Investment Policy. As of March 31, 2025, the City’s portfolio, consisting of high-quality fixedincome marketable securities, totals over $1.1 billion and is held at Principal while all securities are registered in the name of the City.
DISCUSSION
Principal’s (formerly Wells Fargo) IRT business division has been providing custody service to the City since 2005 and has consistently demonstrated its ability to provide excellent value and customer service. The relationship manager and customer service team have remained in place following the acquisition by Principal.
In addition to Principal’s proven outstanding customer service to the City, another key factor in its original selection to provide investment portfolio custody services was its competitive pricing.
Compared to the next lowest bid, with five total proposals submitted, Principal’s annual pricing was $24,000 lower, saving the City more than $120,000 over the initial five-year term.
As the initial term of the Agreement will expire on August 25, 2025, staff is exercising the option to extend the term by five (5) additional years through August 25, 2030. Staff is requesting authorization to execute Amendment 1 to the Agreement to increase the not-to-exceed contract amount by $38,000 from $115,000 to $153,000 for the period ending on August 25, 2030. Staff is additionally requesting approval to exercise up to two additional 1-year extensions option or one 2-year City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 5/23/2025

25-386 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
extension, which would extend this Agreement through August 25, 2032. There will be no change in pricing; however, the total not-to exceed contract amount would increase from $153,000 to $198,000, including the additional two years to August 2032. This increase is due to the growth in City’s investment portfolio size. Securities held at Principal grew from $720 million in August 2020 to over $1.1 billion at the end of March 2025. It should be noted that the City’s investment portfolio is comprised of citywide cash for all funds, including utility enterprises. The majority of these funds are reserved and/or encumbered to fund operations and capital projects.
City’s investment portfolio grew more than $300 million during this period due to accumulated interest earnings of $63.7 million and increases to various City operating reserves of approximately $245.7 million.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of a California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to the 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. Furthermore, 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.
FISCAL IMPACT
The agreement has an amended not-to-exceed amount of $153,000 through August 25, 2030.
Funding for the agreement is included in the FY 2025/26 & 2026/27 Proposed Biennial Operating Budget. The potential not-to-exceed amount will increase to $198,000, should the two optional years extension through August 25, 2032 be exercised. Funding for the remaining term will be incorporated into future operating budgets.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with 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.

Section 19 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act prohibits Contractor, as a federally insured depository institution, from hiring or continuing the employment of a person who has a criminal record involving dishonesty, breach of trust, money laundering, or the distribution, manufacturing or trafficking in controlled substances.

The fingerprint-based background screening includes a check against the FBl's National Criminal Information Center (NCIC) database as well as the OFAC/SDN list. If a background check reveals a conviction for a covered criminal offense, then that person is ineligible for employment with Contractor unless he or she has received a written waiver from the FDIC or the offense otherwise meets the FDIC's de minimis criteria.
Similarly, if it subsequently becomes known to Contractor that an employee has been convicted of a covered criminal offense, then that person's employment is terminated.

Contractor certifies that to the best of its knowledge, no City officer, employee or authorized representative has any financial interest in the business of Contractor and that no person associated with Contractor has any interest, direct or indirect, which could conflict with the faithful performance of this Agreement. Contractor is familiar with the provisions of California Government Code section 87100 and following, and certifies that it does not know of any facts which would violate these code provisions. Contractor will advise City if a conflict arises.
20. FAIR EMPLOYMENT
Contractor shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, sex, color, religion, religious creed, national origin, ancestry, age, gender, marital status, physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, military and veteran status, or ethnic background, in violation of federal, state or local law.
21. NO USE OF CITY NAME OR EMBLEM
Contractor shall not use City's name, insignia, or emblem, or distribute any information related to Services under this Agreement in any magazine, trade paper, newspaper or other medium without express written consent of City.

25-168 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Revel Environmental Manufacturing, Inc. for Maintenance Services of Full Trash Capture Devices
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure Promote Sustainability and Environmental Protection
BACKGROUND
On October 27, 2020, the City Council approved an agreement with Revel Environmental Manufacturing, Inc. (REM) for the maintenance of Full Trash Capture (FTC) devices from REM’s Triton product line. Under this agreement, REM provides cleaning, repair, maintenance reporting, and as-needed replacement services for the City’s FTC devices (Attachment 1). The agreement is currently set to expire on June 30, 2025.
FTC devices are required by the Regional Water Quality Control Board under the Municipal Regional Stormwater National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit (MRP). These devices have a 5- millimeter mesh screen to trap particles, such as cans, plastics, paper, cigarette butts, and other debris, preventing them from entering the stormwater system and eventually reaching creeks, rivers, and the San Francisco Bay. To comply with the permit, each device must be serviced at least twice a year. If a device is found to be more than 50 percent full, additional cleaning is required.
DISCUSSION
REM has developed customized vacuum trucks equipped with specialized equipment specifically designed for the maintenance of its Triton FTC devices. In addition, REM warranties the repair, refurbishment, and/or replacement of devices damaged due to normal wear and tear, at no cost to the City, provided the FTC devices are maintained by REM.
REM is the sole authorized provider of maintenance services for its Triton FTC devices and does not have any authorized third-party service providers. Based on this, the Purchasing Division Manager determined, pursuant to City Code Section 2.105.160(b)(2), that this purchase is exempt from competitive procurement requirements because the services are required to ensure the operation and function of existing equipment currently in use by the City.
The proposed amendment would extend the term of the agreement for an additional five years, through June 30, 2030, and increase the maximum compensation by $1,105,267, from $596,068 to $1,701,335. The increase in compensation, which accounts for economic price adjustment as discussed below, is primarily due to the higher number of FTC devices now in service. When the City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 5/23/2025
powered by Legistar™
25-168 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
agreement was originally executed in 2020, the City maintained approximately 575 FTC devices.
That number has since increased to approximately 1,439 FTC devices.
Under the agreement, the City pays a fixed rate per device. REM currently charges $71.28 per device, which is a reasonable price considering the only other proposal received for the RFP conducted in 2020 charged $76 per device cleaning for the first year, which was 5 percent higher than REM’s current price in FY 2024/25. Even with this proposed increase, REM is still very competitive in pricing based on the previous procurement process. Staff recommends extending the term of the current agreement with REM for an additional five years through June 30, 2030 for ongoing maintenance and repair services of the City’s FTC devices.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301 “Existing Facilities,” as the activity consists of the repair, maintenance or minor alteration of existing facilities involving no or negligible expansion of the use beyond that presently existing.
FISCAL IMPACT
REM is proposing a 2.5 percent increase to its price per device cleaning, bringing it to $73.06 in FY 2025/26, with a 2.5 percent increase each year thereafter for a total of five years. The amount to be spent in FY 2025/26, which covers two cleanings per device, will be $210,267, subject to budget appropriations. The total contract value over the five-year term is projected to be $1,105,267. The FY 2025/26 and FY 2026/27 Proposed Operating Budget includes sufficient funding in the General Fund for this agreement. Funding in future years will be factored into the annual budgets.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department 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.

Action on an Agreement with Revel Environmental Manufacturing, Inc. for Maintenance, Data Collection and Reporting for Installed Full Trash Capture Devices
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance H1gh Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) requires permittees to achieve no visual impact from trash (100 percent trashload reduction) in the stormwater system by the year 2022. In FY 2016/17, it was determined that the City had attained 85 percent trash load reduction th rough a combination of full trash capture netting systems at the Westside Retention Basin, 574 full trash capture devices installed in Individual stormwater catch basins located in City streets, enhanced commercial/industrial street sweeping, and the implementation of single-use carryout bag and expanded polystyrene foam food serviceware ordinances. The intent of the trash capture devices is to trap all particles retained by a 5mm mesh screen such as cans, plastics, paper, cigarette butts and other debris from the stormwater system before they enter creeks and rivers in route to the San Francisco Bay.
The City of Santa Clara has been divided into 13 trash management areas (TMA) as shown in Attachment 1. Full trash capture devices have been installed in medium to high trashload generating portions of TMA 1, 2, 3, 4, 6,, 7, 8, and 12 to achieve the current percent trashload reduction. Full trash capture devices will need to be installed in catch basin inlets in all of TMA 9 and portions of TMA 5, 10, 11 , and 13 to achieve the 100 percent trashload reduction mandate by June 30, 2022.
The MRP requires that the full trash capture devices be cleaned at least two times per fiscal year and that data be collected for each service. The service report data includes items such as the inlet identification number, date of service, percentage of filter capacity taken up by debris, and estimated amount and characterization of debris removed. If a specific full trash capture device filter is over 50 percent filled with debris after two consecutive services, the cleaning frequency needs to be increased. The City had contracted with Revel Environmental Manufacturing, Inc. (REM) to provide, install, and maintain the 574 full trash capture devices; that agreement expired on April 30, 2020.
DISCUSSION
A formal Request for Proposals (RFP) procurement process was conducted in accordance with Santa Clara City Code Section 2.105.330 General Services - Contracting procedures to select a contractor to perform maintenance, data collection and reporting for full trash capture devices. The procurement was posted on BidSync from September 4 - September 25, 2020, and the City received two proposals to provide services.
City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 1115/2020

20-891 Agenda Date: 10/27/2020
Proposals were evaluated based on the proposal responsiveness, contractor experience, technical capability, and cost. Revel Environmental Manufacturing, Inc. (REM) was selected to provide maintenance, data collection and reporting services for installed full trash capture devices installed in the public right-of-way.
REM was determined to have the most experience and technical capability. As the manufacturer of the currently installed devices, REM has a unique knowledge of the devices and scope of services to provide the work required. Furthermore, the Contractor has maintained a good relationship with the City by providing high quality work and meeting City expectations in the current agreement. Finally, selecting REM is also the most cost-effective option for the City (see Full Trash Capture Summary Table, Attachment 2).
The term of the agreement (Attachment 3) with REM is five years and provides options for the City to increase the number of devices serviced and/or increase the maintenance frequency. This will allow the City the flexibility to service and monitor additional trash capture devices that get added in the future and increase the service interval for trash capture devices that need to be cleaned more often.
It is estimated that over the course of five years, four hundred additional trash capture devices will need to be installed.
The City will need to purchase, install and maintain additional full trash capture devices in FY 2021/22 to achieve the 100 percent trashload reduction mandate by June 30, 2022. The primary reason for this is that the Regional Water Quality Control Board will eliminate source control credits the City is currently receiving for having ordinances banning single-use carryout bags and polystyrene food containers. This change to the calculation process will reduce the City's current trashload reduction by 14 percent (8 percent reduction for single-use carryout bag ordinance and 6 percent reduction for expanded polystyrene foam food serviceware ordinance). Additional full trash capture devices will need to be purchased, installed and maintained to return to the 100 percent trashload reduction level during the next MRP term.
The City will work with a consultant to determine the specific storm drain catch basin inlets for future full trash capture device installation this winter. A separate formal procurement will be conducted in 2021 to procure a vendor to provide and install the additional full trash capture devices. Funding for the purchase and installation of full trash capture devices is included in the Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention Program capital project in the FY 2020/21 and FY 2021/22 Adopted Biennial Capital Improvement Program Budget. The service of additional full trash capture devices that will be installed in the future will be covered under this agreement.
This agreement includes a section covering prevailing wage.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301 "Existing Facilities," as the activity consists of the repair, maintenance or minor alteration of existing facilities involving no or negligible expansion of the use beyond that presently existing.

agreement is estimated to be $596,068 (calculation based on 574 devices serviced two times per year, plus 200 additional services multiplied by five years, plus 200 future devices serviced two times per year beginning in FY 2021/22 multiplied by four years, plus the 200 future devices serviced two times per year in FY 2024/25, plus a 10 percent contingency). The FY 2020/21 Operating Budget for the General Fund - Storm Drain Nonpoint Source Program includes funding for this contract. Funding in future years will be incorporated into the budget development process.

25-249 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. for Design Professional Services for the Warburton Park Playground Rehabilitation Project
COUNCIL PILLAR
1. Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
2. Enhance Community Sports, Recreational and Arts Assets
BACKGROUND
On February 13, 2023, the City approved a design professional services agreement with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. (Consultant) for the first phase of the Warburton Park Playground Rehabilitation Project (Project). The first phase of the Project includes preparation of concepts for the park and a schematic design for the playground rehabilitation, community outreach, presentation of the schematic design to the Parks and Recreation Commission, and action from the City Council.
The proposed schematic design incorporated feedback from both the Parks and Recreation Commission and the community and was approved by Council on May 13, 2025 (RTC 25-195). The second phase of the Project includes various design professional services related to design and construction of the Project.
DISCUSSION
The proposed Amendment No. 1 (Attachment 1) includes a negotiated scope of services and schedule of fees that incorporates the design professional services necessary to complete the second phase of the Project, per the approved schematic design. The scope of services generally includes preparing bid documents (plans, specifications, and engineer’s estimate) for public works bidding, providing assistance with coordinating and securing permits, and providing services during project advertisement and construction.
Staff recommends the approval of Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. Approval of this amendment will provide the professional services necessary to complete the design of the Project and proceed to construction in a timely manner. Design of the Project is anticipated to be completed by summer 2026. The agreement includes a section covering prevailing wage requirements.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is for design professional services and the action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines section 15378 as the action being considered does not commit the City to undertake any project and future discretionary approvals are required by the City to approve any project for construction.
Environmental review in accordance with CEQA will occur as part of the design and approval City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 2 Printed on 5/23/2025
powered by Legistar™
25-249 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
process. It is expected that the CEQA determination for this project will be a categorical exemption pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15301(c) Existing Facilities since the scope of work is maintenance/repair and minor modifications of existing facility.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed Amendment No. 1 increases the total not-to-exceed amount by $430,520 (from $128,425 to $558,945), which includes $491,115 for basic services and $67,830 for additional services. The Warburton Park Playground Rehabilitation project has sufficient funding in the Parks and Recreation Capital Fund.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Parks & Recreation Department, Finance Department 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] or at the public information desk at any City of Santa Clara public library.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement for Design Professional Services with Westwood Professional Services, Inc. for the Warburton Park Playground Rehabilitation Project in the amount not-to-exceed $558,945 in a final form approved by the City Attorney; and
2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to make minor modifications, including time extensions, to the Agreement, if needed.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on Amendment No. 1 to the Master Agreement with Unisys Corporation for Information Technology Outsourcing Services
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
In December 2016, the City conducted a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) for Information Technology Outsourcing Services. Following a comprehensive evaluation process, Unisys Corporation (Unisys) was selected and awarded an eight-year agreement, consisting of an initial four -year term and four one-year renewals. The City Council approved the execution of the agreement with Unisys for the initial term on May 16, 2017 (Attachment 1).
On June 15, 2021, City Council authorized the City Manager to exercise the four one-year renewal options to extend the agreement through June 30, 2025 (Attachment 2). The total authorized amount under the agreement through this date is $70,003,542.
Under the current agreement, Unisys provides Citywide IT services for all major service areas, including infrastructure support, enterprise applications and websites, departmental IT solutions, enduser support, and cross-functional services. These services include 24x7 management of missioncritical systems, helpdesk operations, cybersecurity, and project management. The agreement also provides for enterprise-class tools such as the ServiceNow platform for incident and service request management, change management, configuration management, and a centralized knowledgebase.
Recognizing the critical need for uninterrupted, secure, and stable IT operations, particularly given the major events scheduled in 2026, including the FIFA World Cup and Superbowl, staff determined it is in the City’s best interest to continue services with Unisys. In October 2024, staff issued an RFP to retain a third-party consultant to evaluate the current agreement, interview key stakeholders, and support negotiations for a contract extension. A consultant was selected and engaged in January 2025.
Negotiations are underway for a revised agreement, which includes the review and update of the Master Services Agreement (MSA) and 39 accompanying schedules that cover details such as the services solution, scopes of work, and service level agreements (SLAs).
DISCUSSION
Unisys has been a valued service provider and has demonstrated their commitment to supporting the City’s IT needs. With the agreement set to expire on June 30, 2025, and in consideration of the City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 5/23/2025
powered by Legistar™
25-337 Agenda Date: 5/27/2025
specialized expertise required to manage and maintain the City’s IT infrastructure and applications, City staff recommends a short-term extension of the agreement to ensure continuity of services.
Staff is seeking authority to negotiate and execute Amendment No. 1 to the agreement to extend the term by six months through December 31, 2025, and to increase compensation by $4,359,478, for a revised not to exceed maximum compensation of $74,363,020. This short-term extension will allow staff the necessary time to finalize negotiations for a longer-term extension of up to three years. This short-term extension will maintain current service levels and contract provisions wherever feasible.
As permitted under the agreement, Unisys will apply a price adjustment increase, estimated at 2.1%, tied to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The Amendment will address application of CPI-based increases to both Staff Labor Rates and Resource Unit Fees.
Negotiations for the longer-term extension have required detailed analysis and review of the MSA and accompanying schedules, and extensive discussions with Unisys. Staff anticipates returning to City Council within the next few months with a recommendation for the longer-term extension.
The proposed longer-term extension (expected to run through 2028) will help to ensure uninterrupted IT services during major planned events in 2026. In addition, it will allow sufficient time to conduct a sourcing and service delivery strategy, and evaluate, plan, and conduct a new competitive procurement process for the City’s next generation IT service delivery.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a "project" within the meaning of a California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to the 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 FY 2025-26 Proposed Operating Budget includes funding for Unisys services in the Information Technology Services Fund. The six-month extension will increase compensation by $4,359,478, for a total not to exceed $74,363,020.
COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department 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.

AGENDA REPORT
Subject: Approval of Agreement with Unisys Corpo_ration for Information Technology Outsourcing Services
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City has engaged information technology outsourcing services for over 30 years. The current agreement with Unisys Corporation, approved by Council in August 2009, will complete its term on June 30, 2017. In January 2016 .Council approved a contract with Avasant, LLC, a sourcing advisory firm for its expertise in defining a new IT sourcing strategy, request for proposal, selection process, contract agreements and negotiations.
The study and market based analysis led to the determination that IT Services Outsourcing, and conducting a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) for such services was in the best interest of the City. The RFP was issued December 2, 2016 and included updated service requirements for all major service areas including IT infrastructure, applications and web, departmental IT solutions, and cross-functional services, such as cyber security, project management, and other critical deliverables.
Four firms filed an intent to bid with the City and two firms, CGI Group and Unisys Corporation, submitted qualified proposals. Both providers were invited to participate in an extensive evaluation process followed by updated proposals and reference checks being performed. The comprehensive selection strategy and high degree of departmental participation allowed the City to take a holistic view of its IT needs and select a provider that most closely aligned to that vision. Staff focused on the following strategic goals throughout the sourcing process:
• Optimize IT infrastructure, systems, and processes across the City • Enable applications modernization and business process streamlining • Establish a comprehensive cybersecurity program to protect City assets and user privacy • Source affordable IT services in support of delivering superb city services As a result of this process and key selection criteria, Unisys Corporation's proposal best met the needs of the City and was selected for final contract_ negotiations. • Subject: Approve Agreement with Unisys Corporation for Information Technology Outsourcing Services
The enhanced performance based contract with Unisys continues to mature IT services while making strategic changes to provide greater value to the City. The contract provides for 24x7 management of mission critical systems, cybersecurity services, application management for 180 applications, infrastructure management and project management. Improved end user services is a key focus area with an emphasis on increasing service desk and field service knowledge of department needs and providing· users with value-added tools and processes.
As part of the transition to the·new contract, Unisys will completely replace the information technology service management (ITSM) applications utilizing the ServiceNow platform, and will be implementing additional industry best practices for service and project delivery.
Based on this thorough process, staff recommends awarding the IT Services Contract to Unisys Corporation for a four-year term, with the options for four one-year extensions at the City's discretion. It is desirable that these types of service contracts be long term to negotiate better terms, and to erisure consis~ency of staffing and expertise. Past City IT outsourcing agreements have been in the five-year range with additional option years.
As true with multi-year agreements, the execution of the term of this Agreement is contingent on annual Council budget appropriations.
• A copy of the Agreement for the Performance of Services with Unisys Corporation can be viewed on the City's website and is available in the City Clerk's Office for review during normal business hours.
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF ISSUE
This agreement supports the updated IT mission and provides for a higher level of IT services in support of City and departmental services to the community and management of critical systems. The agreement'is in line with market pricing.
There are no identified disadvantages to this Agreement.
ECONOMIC/FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of agreement with Unisys Corporation for Information Technology Services will not exceed $36,522,000 over the initial 4-year term of the contract. The planned cost associated with FY 2017/18 is $8,143,000.
The appropriation will be budgeted in FY 2017/18 in various funds and departments General Government Capital Project account (539-33XX-80XXX-6103); General Fund Operating Account (001-1931-87870); in the Electric Department Operating Accounts (191-1312-87870) and (091- 13XX-87870); and the Stadium Authority Operating Account (870-8345-87800). Appropriations for future years will be requested and approved through the annual budget process.
