Evaluation in connection the Emergency First Street Parking Lot Repair, CIP EM2403, in the amount of $15,600; and,

6. Approving Budget Amendment BA #24-09-02 in the amount of $66,000.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

In late December 2023, the City experienced an extended period of substantial downpours and heavy surf that led to flooding at the First Street parking lot. After the water subsided, Public Works discovered a sinkhole that formed at the southwest portion of the parking lot. Engineering staff responded to investigate the void and surrounding area.

Due to the location of the sinkhole, it was determined that immediate repairs were required to ensure public safety and preserve City property. The Director of Public Works declared an emergency on the basis of immediate preservation of life, health, and property of the City. Staff mobilized Hardy & Harper, Inc. (“Hardy & Harper”), one of the City’s existing on-call contractors, for this emergency work.

Repair work commenced on January 4, 2024 and was completed in approximately one (1) week due to delays caused by underlying soil saturation. Construction included removing the damaged pavement, backfilling the void, surface paving, curb work, and striping. A comprehensive geotechnical evaluation was subsequently conducted by GMU Geotechnical, Inc. (“GMU”) to determine the potential for other subsurface voids.

Numerous passes of ground penetrating radar (“GPR”) tests were performed throughout the 1st Street parking lot in a systematic six-foot wide continuous scanning pattern. Based on GMU’s analysis and interpretation of the data gathered, no apparent substantial voids were identified within the upper 10.0 feet; however, it is possible that voids may exist in between, away, or under the specific scanned locations that could contribute to future unforeseen settlement.

Hardy & Harper’s total cost to complete this emergency repair work was $49,535; therefore, staff is requesting authorization to issue a purchase order in the amount of $49,535 for the work completed based on the emergency declaration as an exception to the competitive bidding process. Staff is also requesting authorization to issue a purchase order in the amount of $15,600 for GMU’s emergency geotechnical evaluation.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

This project complies with all requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is categorically exempt under Section 15301 Class 1 subsection (c) of the CEQA Guidelines.

LEGAL ANALYSIS:

The City Attorney has approved the resolution as to form.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Budget Amendment BA #24-09-02 will allocate $66,000 from the General Fund Reserve increasing the Capital Improvement Projects Fund.

The table below presents a breakdown of the Project’s construction cost:

Description Amount
Construction/Repair Work $ 49,535
Geotechnical Evaluation $ 15,600
Total $ 65,135
STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is not applicable to the Strategic Plan.

2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute a purchase order with Hardy & Harper, Inc. for the Emergency First Street Parking Lot Repair, CIP EM2403, in the amount of $49,535 under an existing on-call agreement with Hardy & Harper, Inc. without advertising for bids; and,

3. Accepting the work to the Emergency First Street Parking Lot Repair, CIP EM2403, by Hardy and Harper, Inc. in the amount of $49,535; and,

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager
FROM: Iris Lee, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Acceptance of Tree Donation from Trees for Seal Beach ________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7503:

1. Accepting a donation from Trees for Seal Beach of thirty-three (33) trees, valued at $12,425, for City-wide tree reforestation; and,

2. Authorizing the City Manager, or her designee, to accept thirty-three (33) trees from Trees for Seal Beach, and to direct the City Arborist to install the trees at appropriate locations throughout the City.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

The City has a history of valuing its urban forestry and investing in asset maintenance. As labor and material costs have increased, the ability to fund and reforest the City has decreased. Exploring diverse fundraising strategies and partnerships with non-profits and environmental organizations have proven beneficial to the City urban forest.

As a community enhancement, Trees for Seal Beach has offered to donate thirtythree (33) trees with an estimated value of $12,425. If the City Council accepts the donation, the City Arborist would have the discretion to install these trees at appropriate locations throughout the City.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

This item is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15301(h) (Existing Facilities) of the state CEQA Guidelines because it would involve maintenance of existing trees involving no expansion of use.

LEGAL ANALYSIS:

The City Attorney has approved the resolution as to form.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The donation of thirty-three (33) trees, valued at $12,425, would be installed by City staff and would be part of the existing tree maintenance services contract. No additional City costs are anticipated.

STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is not applicable to the Strategic Plan.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7503:

1. Accepting a donation from Trees for Seal Beach of thirty-three (33) trees, valued at $12,425, for City-wide tree reforestation; and,

2. Authorizing the City Manager, or her designee, to accept thirty-three (33) trees from Trees for Seal Beach, and to direct the City Arborist to install the trees at appropriate locations throughout the City.

SUBJECT: Awarding and Authorizing Execution of a Public Works Agreement with HZS Engineering Inc. dba HZS
Construction, for the Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration, CIP BP2201
________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7504:

1. Approving the plans, specifications, and contract documents for the Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration Project, CIP BP2201; and,

2. Approving and awarding a Public Works Agreement to HZS Engineering Inc. dba HZS Construction in the amount of $567,300; incorporating the corrections set forth in HZS Construction’s March 19, 2024 letter; waiving any and all minor bid irregularities; and rejecting all other bids; and,

3. Authorizing the City Manager to execute a Public Works Agreement for construction services to HZS Engineering Inc. dba HZS Construction; and

4. Authorizing the City Manager to approve additional work requests up to $19,766 and inspection services up to $11,200 in connection with the Project, in the cumulative not-to-exceed amount of $30,966.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

The Seal Beach Pier (“Pier”) was first constructed in the early 1900s and rebuilt in 1984. In 2016, a fire caused significant damage towards the latter portion of the Pier. Although this section was reconstructed in 2020, there are still areas outside of the Pier reconstruction that require repair and upgrade. Based on the Pier evaluation results in 2021, the Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration Project (“Project”) was included in the Fiscal Year 2023-24 Capital Improvement Program budget.

Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration Project (CIP BP2201) The Pier concrete abutment structure is the main point at which residents and visitors access the Pier and surrounding beach and park areas. The abutment area is showing wear and deterioration, and these conditions need to be addressed if the structure is to remain a viable component of the City’s identity.

The Project will address the main areas of concern such as cracking and spalling concrete, deterioration of exposed steel elements, and worn surfaces caused by the corrosive marine environment.

On September 27, 2023, the City advertised and solicited bids for the Project. On October 26, 2023, the City Clerk’s office received five (5) bids. As the Project requires specialty work relating to waterproofing and weatherproofing of the concrete abutment structures, staff recommended rejection of all bids in order to modify the contract specifications and refine the licensing requirements to clearly define the qualification expectations. These changes were to ensure that the lowest responsive contractor would possess the expertise and experience required to fulfill the unique Project demands.

On December 11, 2023, City Council approved Resolution 7466 rejecting all bids in accordance with Section 1010 of the Seal Beach Charter, which provides that the legislative body may reject any bids presented and readvertise at its discretion.

On January 24, 2024, construction bids were re-solicited. On February 15, 2024, the City Clerk’s office received two (2) bids with the following results:

Rank Contractor Total Base Bid*
Lowest HZS Construction $567,300
2 Jilk Heavy Construction Inc. $775,610
After reviewing the bid, a clerical error was discovered in HZS Construction’s Bid in that the written Total Base Bid Price was written as $565,300 but the numerical figure for the Total Base Bid Price was $567,300 and all extended prices listed in the individual bid items total $567,300. On March 19, 2024, HZS Construction submitted a letter advising the City that their Bid contained a clerical error in the written Total Base Bid Price and that their Total Base Bid Price of $567,300 is correct. The Total Base Bid Price of $567,300 is within 1.4% of the Engineer’s estimate for the Project.

Based on the City’s detailed bid analysis, including review of the Notice Inviting Bids and Instructions to Bidders, HZS Construction’s Bid and their March 19, 2024 letter, it is Staff’s recommendation that the City Council find there are no material errors or omissions that render HZS Construction’s bid non-responsive. Any irregularity or informality of the Bid may be waived if it does not: a) affect the amount of HZS Construction’s Bid; (b) give HZS Construction an advantage over other bidders; (c) create a potential vehicle for favoritism; (d) influence potential

bidders to refrain from bidding; or (e) affect the ability to make bid comparisons.

Because none of these factors are present, the City Council may find that it is in the best interest of the City to accept HZS Construction’s bid as the lowest responsive bid at $567,300 for the Total Base Bid for the Project, incorporating the correction to the clerical error identified in HZS Construction’s March 19, 2024 letter; to waive any potential irregularities or informalities in HZS Construction’s bid; and to reject all other bids. Staff also recommends authorizing the City Manager to approve additional work requests up to $19,766 and inspection services up to $11,200 in connection with the Project, in the cumulative not-toexceed amount of $30,966 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

The Project complies with all requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and is categorically exempt under Section 15301(b) of the CEQA Guidelines.

LEGAL ANALYSIS:

The City Attorney has reviewed the agreement and approved the agreement and resolution as to form.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

Sufficient funds have been allocated in the FY 2023-2024 Capital Improvement Program budget for the Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration Project, CIP BP2201.

No budget adjustments are recommended.

The table below presents the estimated breakdown of the Project’s construction costs:

Description Amount
Total Base Bid $567,300
Contingency $ 19,766
Inspection/Construction Support $ 11,200
Total $598,266
STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is not applicable to the Strategic Plan.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7504:

1. Approving the plans, specifications, and contract documents for the Pier Concrete Abutment Restoration, CIP BP2201; and,

2. Approving and awarding a Public Works Agreement to HZS Engineering Inc. dba HZS Construction in the amount of $567,300; incorporating the corrections set forth in HZS Construction’s March 19, 2024 letter; waiving any and all minor bid irregularities; and rejecting all other bids; and,

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
DATE: March 25, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
THRU: Jill R. Ingram, City Manager
FROM: Michael Henderson, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Seeking City Council approval to Purchase Noise Flash Diversionary Devices Pursuant to the City’s “Military
Equipment” Use Policy and State Law
________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7505 to approve the purchase of Noise Flash Diversionary Devices (NFDD) for the Seal Beach Police Department (“SBPD”), pursuant to the City’s “military equipment” use policy.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

In April of 2022, the Seal Beach City Council adopted Ordinance 1694, approving a “military equipment” use policy. This policy complies with Government Code Sections 7070 through 7075 (AB 481) and requires the Seal Beach Police Department to obtain approval from the City Council prior to acquiring equipment that is covered by the policy.

Under State law, once the City has adopted a compliant policy, law enforcement agencies are required to obtain approval from their respective governing body prior to funding, seeking funding for, or acquiring “military equipment.” Law enforcement agencies are not permitted to use “military equipment,” as defined in State law, unless it is permitted by the policy and included in the equipment inventory that is an attachment to the policy. Law enforcement agencies are further required to submit an annual military equipment report to the governing body for as long as the equipment is available for use.

The term “military equipment,” as used in AB 481, does not necessarily indicate equipment that has been used by the military. Pursuant to AB 481, items deemed to be “military equipment” include, but are not limited to, unmanned aerial or ground vehicles, armored vehicles, command and control vehicles, pepper balls, less lethal shotguns, less lethal 40mm projectile launchers, long range acoustic devices, and flashbangs (NFDD). Items deemed to be “military equipment” by AB 481 is used as a component of overall best practices for law enforcement agencies throughout the country. These tools have been tested in the field and are

used by law enforcement agencies to enhance citizen and officer safety. Loss of these items would jeopardize the welfare of citizens and peace officers within the SBPD.

SBPD is committed to using the most up to date tools and equipment to safeguard the citizens of Seal Beach and our officers. Many items deemed to be “military equipment,” by AB 481 are employed by SBPD, and law enforcement agencies across the country, to reduce risk to community members and to protect peace officers with adequate weapons and supplies. Some of the items covered by the policy provide peace officers with the ability to safely resolve volatile situations which otherwise might rise to the level of a lethal force encounter. To that end, the NFDD that SBPD seeks approval to acquire are approved in the policy and will provide SBPD’s peace officers with vital tools that facilitate compliance with its stringent use of force policy and de-escalations methods.

There are no reasonable alternatives to the NFDD requested in this report. SBPD officers are already trained to deploy NFDDs. At this time there is a limited supply left for officers to access in the event of an emergency or Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) activation.

These NFDDs are managed by the SWAT team members who have completed the Flash Bang Instructors course. The devices themselves are managed by and inventoried in compliance with the Alcohol Tobacco and Firearm (ATF) to ensure they are not being used recklessly.

The approved use and necessity for using NFDD’s is described in the policy as follows:

This is the standard diversionary flash-bang device. It is a non-bursting, nonfragmenting single use device that produces a 175db and 6-8 million candela of light output. It is ideal for distracting potentially dangerous suspects during assaults, hostage rescue, building/room entry or other high-risk arrest situations.

Purpose: A diversionary device is ideal for distracting dangerous suspects during assaults, hostage rescue, and room entry or other high-risk arrest situations. It produces atmospheric overpressure and bright white light which temporarily disrupts physiological/psychological senses for about six to eight seconds. This results in sensory deprivation, which provides officers a tactical advantage.

Authorized Use: Diversionary Devices shall only be used:
a. By officers who have been trained in their proper use. b. In hostage and barricaded subject situations.
c. In high-risk warrant (search/arrest) services where there may be extreme hazards to officers.
d. During other high-risk situations where their use would enhance officer safety.
e. During training exercises.

SBPD will provide an annual update on the policy and inventory, as required by AB 481, at a future meeting.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

There is no environmental impact related to this item.

LEGAL ANALYSIS:

The City Attorney has reviewed and approved as to form.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The City of Seal Beach requested four (4) quotes for the product from various vendors. The lowest bid was received from AARDVARK for Mini Flash Bangs Steel Body – Single Uses – at a unit cost of $50.00 per unit and Double Bang, Low Roll Aluminum Body $71.88 per unit (Plus freight). Additionally, the lowest bid of Enhanced Diversionary Device (EDD) Initiator and trainers was received from Liberty Dynamic:

Mini Single Use - 24 units = Total $1,485.00
Double Bang – 24 units = Total $2,056.07
EDD Initiator 15 units and 5 trainer / 48 reloader and trainer / safety magnet = Total $6,017.00
Total cost = $9,558.07
This is a budgeted item for the Seal Beach Police Department. Based on availability of the product at the time of approval for purchase, the Police Department may purchase less than the approved amount. This will reflect in annual inventory related to the regulations of AB 481.

STRATEGIC PLAN:

This item is not applicable to the Strategic Plan.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7505 to approve the purchase of Noise Flash Diversionary Devices (NFDD) for the Seal Beach Police Department (“SBPD”), pursuant to the City’s “military equipment” use policy.

________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY OF REQUEST:

That the City Council adopt Resolution 7506:

1. Accepting an award of federal grant funds from the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (“HMGP”) in an amount up to $120,541.50 from the Department of Homeland Security - Federal Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) as the Federal obligation for 75% of the project cost ($160,722.00) and authorizing use of “in-kind” staff time to match the 25% cost share of $40,180.50; and,

2. Authorizing the City Manager and/or Chief of Police to execute all agreements and forms and to take any further actions necessary for the purpose of obtaining the grant funds under the HMGP provided by the FEMA and sub-granted through the California Office of Emergency Services (“Cal OES”).

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS:

The federal Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (“HMGP”) provides funding to State, local, tribal, and territorial (“SLTT”) governments so they can rebuild in a way that reduces or mitigates future natural disaster losses in their communities. The program is authorized by Section 404 of the Stafford Act.

HMGP funding is authorized with a Presidential Major Disaster Declaration. A governor or tribal chief executive may request HMGP funding throughout the state, tribe, or territory when submitting a disaster declaration. The amount of funding made available to the applicant is based on the estimated total Federal assistance.

The formula generally gives 15% of the total federal assistance amount provided for recovery from the presidentially declared disaster and is determined by the FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plan.

During the most recent HMGP grant cycle, Seal Beach Police Department applied for and was awarded funding to hire a consultant to initiate an update of the 2019 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (“LHMP”) and comply with the newest FEMA guidelines. The total project cost is $160,722.00 with a Federal share of 75% and a 25% non-Federal share of $40,180.50 to be matched as “in-kind” staff time toward the project.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

Scope of Work
The City of Seal Beach will update its single-jurisdiction local hazard mitigation plan. The LHMP development process and the final LHMP will be in compliance with FEMA's mitigation planning requirements as set forth in 44 CFR Part 201, the new Local Mitigation Planning Policy Guide, and the Local Mitigation Planning Handbook. The single-jurisdiction plan update is for an all-hazard plan. The updated LHMP will incorporate applicable actions from the California State Hazard Mitigation Plan. The updated LHMP will also be incorporated into the Safety Element of the Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the planning process city’s General Plan in compliance with AB2140 and comply with the requirements of SB 379 and SB 1000 in addressing climate change.

Critical milestones include: • Procurement of a consultant to support plan outreach, development, drafting, and review. The consultant procurement process will be in compliance with 2 CFR 200, and State and Local regulations (the most stringent applies). • Development of an engagement and outreach plan and implementation with the general public and internal and external stakeholders. • As part of this outreach plan, there will be three specific facilitated meetings. Meeting 1 – Review the planning process, key hazards of concern, and progress made during the previous five-year period. Meeting 2 – Review updated hazard profiles, risk assessment results, and mapping. Meeting 3 – Review updated mitigation strategies and actions to be undertaken by City Staff. Documentation of these meetings will be used in the planning process described in the updated plan.

Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the Hazard identification phase of the planning process
The City of Seal Beach LHMP update will evaluate hazards through the following steps: • Evaluation of past manmade and natural disasters within the City of Seal Beach. • Data collection on climate change and projected impacts to City of Seal Beach. • Previous hazard occurrences and the probability of reoccurrence. These hazards will be reviewed with the general public and stakeholders during outreach meeting #1, and will be refined or re-prioritized if necessary. The prepared hazard assessment will prioritize the hazards included in the LHMP update and create FEMA-compliant hazard profiles to complement the vulnerability assessment. Climate change will be addressed within each hazard profile to ensure compliance with SB 379 requirements. The data and information gathered during this task will be shared with the Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee (HMPC) during Meeting #2. During this task, public outreach provides an opportunity that conveys the overall project information and initial information gathered on the hazards of concern identified by the HMPC for public input and feedback. City staff will provide feedback on relevant hazards, data, historical information on the hazards of concern, and guidance on new issues or concerns to be incorporated into the plan.

Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the risk Assessment phase of the planning process
The risk assessment will be completed by a procured consultant in coordination with the city as part of the 36-month project schedule. The risk assessment will be informed by past incident history, probable and known hazards, GIS hazard mapping, vulnerability assessment, social vulnerability analysis, capability assessment, and the use of My Hazards on the Cal-OES website. During the risk assessment process, the City of Seal Beach will profile relevant hazards and assess the risk each poses to lives, properties, and infrastructure. An inventory of community assets will be created, with the goal of estimating losses and potential damage amounts from each hazard. This information will be covered with the general public and stakeholders during Meeting #2.

The hazard mitigation strategy shall include a description of mitigation goals to reduce or avoid long-term vulnerabilities to the identified hazards.

The City of Seal Beach is a participant in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), and therefore requires descriptions of participation in the program and how the community will comply. The hazard mitigation Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the Mitigation Strategy development phase of the planning process
strategy shall address participation in the NFIP and continued compliance with NFIP requirements, and will identify an appropriate NFIP point of contact to oversee this specific set of actions. The hazard mitigation strategy shall include a section that identifies and analyzes a comprehensive range of specific mitigation actions and projects being considered to reduce the effects of each hazard, with particular emphasis on new and existing buildings and infrastructure, building codes and climate change. The plan will include strategy development in plan to support loss reduction through examination and use of current policies, programs and resources [as identified in FEMA 44 CFR 201.6 (c)(3)].

Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the plan preparation & drafting phases of the planning process
Upon completing Tasks 1 through 4, the contractor will prepare the Draft LHMP for City staff review. Using the process identified above, members of the HMPC will be assisting with plan development as the research, mapping, and analysis are conducted. In doing so, HMPC members will recognize much of the plan content based on their feedback and review in HMPC meetings 1 through 3. The first draft will be internally reviewed and edits received. HMPC members will bring the draft to each of their respective departments and edits will be collected and funneled to the Emergency Services Coordinator as well as the contractor during the course of a one-month review process. The next step – the first public comment period will last two to three months, and the draft will be published for public review and comment on the City website while being directed from all social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Comments will be open for two to three months allowing for the widest public outreach. All comments will be gathered and reviewed for inclusion in the draft plan, which will be available for public review and comment. Pending any other comments, the draft plan will be reviewed by the planning committee, then reviewed by the City of Seal Beach staff. Once all the comments and reviews are done, the LHMP will be submitted to Cal-OES for review, any comments from Cal-OES will be integrated into the plan before being submitted to FEMA for approval.

Once the LHMP is approved by FEMA, the City of Seal Beach City Council will adopt the LHMP, which will also be included in the safety element of the General Plan.

Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for public outreach, meetings and public comment phase of the planning process
Public outreach will be conducted in a format to support public and stakeholder education as well as awareness. The public will be invited to participate in the three facilitated stakeholder meetings to review hazards, risks, and strategies for the plan. The city’s website, social media accounts, e-mail, and mail distribution lists will be used to provide updates and document access. The emergency services coordinator will work with the community development director as well as the Leisure World, and Golden Rain Foundation, to circulate meeting information and information will be made available at community events and other public gatherings to invite them to the public comment phase. The community development director will liaise with social service organizations, organizations, and community centers to circulate information on the LHMP update, and proposed mitigation strategies and invite participation in public comment from members of the public that may not regularly access websites and social media, or have a higher degree of difficulty in mobility, to include older adults and those whose primary language is not English. Public review comments will be incorporated into the LHMP where appropriate before the final draft is submitted to Cal OES and FEMA.

Describe the Scope of Work (SOW) for the Plan Approval & Plan Adoption phases of the planning process
The final draft will be submitted to Cal OES for review and any comments from Cal OES will be integrated into the plan before being submitted to FEMA for approval. Once the LHMP is approved by FEMA, the Seal Beach City Council will adopt the LHMP, which will also be incorporated into the Safety Element of the General Plan.

HMGP Grant Management Cost Application
Subrecipient Grant Management costs are available at no more than 5% of the final project cost to subrecipients who apply and can meet all Federal grant requirements. Subrecipients must provide a detailed budget of the management cost request per 2 CFR 200.403, which is subject to Cal OES/FEMA approval. Reimbursement is based on documented actual cost.

For further clarification, grant management is different than project management. Grant management activities are to manage the grant (Subapplication Development, Quarterly Reporting, Reimbursement Submission). Project management is to manage the actual physical project itself (construction oversight, project scheduling and coordination, project meetings).

FEMA Definition of Management Costs: Any indirect cost, any direct administrative cost, and any other administrative expenses associated with a specific project under a major disaster, emergency, or disaster preparedness or mitigation activity or measure.

Directions: For each applicable category, provide a total estimated cost. Refer to the Management Cost examples below for costs that may be included. For the Narrative field, include a detailed description of work for each cost, including methodology used to estimate each cost. example, if your cost estimate includes your agency's time, include estimated hours, personnel titles, and salary/hourly wages plus benefits for a hourly cost.

Additionally, describe how these costs will be used through the life of the grant.
