STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 9.N.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Dan Meewis, Recreation Director
DATE: January 16, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BELLINGER
FOSTER STEINMETZ FOR THE TRAIL MAINTENANCE STRATEGY
FOR PERMITS AND CONTINGENCY AND AUTHORIZING THE
CONTRACT VALUE TO BE INCREASED BY TWENTY ONE
THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED EIGHTY NINE DOLLARS
($21,489.00) TO BE FUNDED BY THE MONTEREY PENINSULA
REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT ($7,163.00), CITY OF SEASIDE
($7,163.00), AND THE CITY OF MONTEREY ($7,163.00)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving an amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Bellinger Foster Steinmetz.
BACKGROUND
The Laguna Grande Regional Park Joint Powers Agency (JPA) approved a contract with Bellinger Foster Steinmetz (BFS) to create a Trail Maintenance Strategy and Conduct Environmental Review for Laguna Grande Regional Park on April 21, 2021. Prior to the award of the contract, staff met with the various City Managers and Executive Director and it was determined that there was inadequate funding to pay for a full park plan, but recommended moving forward with the Trail Maintenance Strategy. The proposed Trail Maintenance Strategy was proposed to include the following steps:
1. Inventory existing trail network and biotic communities.
2. Prepare a draft trail maintenance strategy and vegetation management recommendations.
3. Review maintenance strategy with stakeholders such as the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Coastal Commission, Regional Water Quality Control Board, and interested parties such as the Audubon Society and residents.
4. Revise the maintenance strategy based on public and stakeholders interest.
5. Present maintenance strategy to the JPA and finalize the project description.
6. Prepare the required environment document.
Packet Page 283
Item No. 9.N. Page 2 of 3
7. Present maintenance strategy and environmental document to the JPA for certification.
Once the document was certified by the JPA, the JPA would then pursue permits for the project from various resource agencies such as the Regional Water Quality Control Board, etc. Work could commence after all permits are obtained and appropriate resources and funding are identified and secured. .
In the contract under section 5.0 Additional Services it states:
5.10 Any Permitting: Obtain necessary permits (Fish & Wildlife, Regional Water Quality, Coastal Commission) for project implementation. This task is budgeted as an additional service. Scope and service details will be refined as permit requirements are identified.
Initially, staff considered working through the permitting process internally. However, given the lengthy process and limited staff resources, it has been determined that the best course of action would be to amend BFS's contract to include the permitting process. BFS would work with EMC Planning Group on this project, as EMC was a consultant for BFS for the Vegetation and Trail Maintenance Strategy, and they have a intricate knowledge of the project, and working with these permitting agencies falls in their scope of services.
At the February 12, 2024, Laguna Grande JPA meeting the Board approved and amendment to the contract with BFS to increase the contract by $89,792.50 to start the process of obtaining the necessary permits required to start the work of the Trail Maintenance Strategy. Over the last year, BFS has been working with EMC Planning group to work with the various jurisdictions to obtain the permits that are required. However, during this time we have been notified by multiple jurisdictions that there was added costs with obtaining the permits. The estimated additional costs is approximately $18,703.50, In addition, staff would like to included a fifteen percent contingency to cover any additional expenses that may incur. The total cost of the amended contract would be $21,508.50 Staff recommends dividing this costs between the three member agencies which would be $7,169.00 per agency.
The additional fees are as follows:
California Department of Fish and Wildlife Permit Fee - $6,580.50 Regional Water Quality Board - $1,123.00
Coastal Commission Restoration Plan - $10,983.75
15% Contingency - $2,802
Total - $21,489.00
At the January 13, 2025, Laguna Grande JPA meeting the board approved amending this contract for the additional funds.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact for this item is $7,169.00 and will be funded from account 601-2796 ( JPA Laguna Grande Agency Contribution)

DATE: January 16, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONTRACT FOR THE
POLICE DEPARTMENT FLOORING INSTALLATION TO BEREMAN
CARPETS, INC. FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $57,000.00
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager to execute a contractor services agreement with Bereman Carpets Inc. to install flooring in the Police Department.
BACKGROUND
Clean-up efforts in response to the December 8th, 2024 flooding of downstairs area of City Hall, the Police Department, continue including clean-up completed by staff, our on-call property clean up services contractor, and a specialized contractor for asbestos abatement in the flooring tiles and sheetrock. With the removal of the floor tiles and sheetrock for water removal and asbestos abatement, a contractor is required for new floor.
In accordance with the City Purchase Ordinance, the City requested three (3) informal quotes from local flooring contractors known to be qualified and responsible to provide flooring installation in the Police Department. The City received quotes from Bereman Carpets, Inc., Grand Avenue Flooring & Interiors, and Morrison's Custom Floors.
Bereman Carpet Inc. submitted the lowest quote to install flooring in the amount of $57,000.00 and the staff has determined that the proposed scope of work and budget are reasonable.
Bereman Carpets, Inc. was selected based on their experience and competitive pricing.
Engineering staff negotiated the contract with Bereman Carpets, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $57,000.00.
Packet Page 292
Item No. 9.O. Page 2 of 2
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing the City Manager to execute a contractor services agreement (Attachment 2), with Bereman Carpets, Inc. for the amount not to exceed $57,000.00 to install new flooring in the Police Department.
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
The Project qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15301 – Existing facilities (operation, repair, maintenance, leasing, etc.) of the California Environmental Quality Act State Guidelines because the scope of work to be conducted is an existing public facility with negligible expansion of the existing uses.
FISCAL IMPACT
There are sufficient funds in the Facilities Repair/Maintenance fund (Account No. 100- 8310-8137).
Available Budget Account Amount
100-8310-8137 $90,000.00
Estimated Expenditures Amount
Not to Exceed Contract
Contingency (10%)
$57,000.00
$ 5,700.00

The Agreement for Contractor Services with Bereman Carpets, Inc. is for an amount not to exceed $57,000.00. It is appropriate to establish a contingency of approximately 10%, equal to $5,700.00, for a project of this type. The total required budget for the flooring installation is $62,700.00.

Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, CONTRACTOR and its subcontractors shall maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. CONTRACTOR will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not meet the requirements set forth herein, CONTRACTOR agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the existing coverage to do so.
CONTRACTOR acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required. Any insurance proceeds available to CONTRACTOR or its subcontractors in excess of the limits and coverage identified in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, claim or demand, will be equally available to AGENCY.
A. CONTRACTOR shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
Without limiting CONTRACTOR’s indemnification of AGENCY, and prior to commencement of Work, CONTRACTOR shall obtain, provide and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the type and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to AGENCY.
General liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate, for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage, and a $2,000,000 completed operations aggregate. The policy must include contractual liability that has not been amended. Any endorsement restricting standard ISO “insured contract” language will not be accepted.
Automobile liability insurance. CONTRACTOR shall maintain automobile insurance at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CA 00 01 covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the CONTRACTOR arising out of or in connection with Work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for any owned, hired, non-owned or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident.
Umbrella or excess liability insurance. [Optional depending on limits required] CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain an umbrella or excess liability insurance that Packet Page 309
EMERGENCY ASBESTOS ABATEMENT OF THE POLICE STATION
Exhibit B
will provide bodily injury, personal injury and property damage liability coverage at least as broad as the primary coverages set forth above, including commercial general liability, automobile liability, and employer’s liability.

In addition, CONTRACTOR shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700 for all of the subcontractor’s employees.
CONTRACTOR shall submit to AGENCY, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of AGENCY, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers.
Pollution liability insurance. Environmental Impairment Liability Insurance shall be written on a CONTRACTOR’s Pollution Liability form or other form acceptable to AGENCY providing coverage for liability arising out of sudden, accidental and gradual pollution and remediation. The policy limit shall be no less than $1,000,000 dollars per claim and in the aggregate. All activities contemplated in this Agreement shall be specifically scheduled on the policy as “covered operations.” The policy shall provide coverage for the hauling of waste from the project site to the final disposal location, including non-owned disposal sites.
Builder’s risk insurance. Upon commencement of construction and with approval of AGENCY, CONTRACTOR shall obtain and maintain builder’s risk insurance for the entire duration of the Project until only the AGENCY has an insurable interest. The Builder’s Risk coverage shall include the coverages as specified below.
The named insureds shall be CONTRACTOR and AGENCY, including its officers, officials, employees, and agents. All Subcontractors (excluding those solely responsible for design Work) of any tier and suppliers shall be included as additional insureds as Packet Page 310
EMERGENCY ASBESTOS ABATEMENT OF THE POLICE STATION
Exhibit B
their interests may appear. CONTRACTOR shall not be required to maintain property insurance for any portion of the Project following transfer of control thereof to AGENCY. The policy shall contain a provision that all proceeds from the builder’s risk policy shall be made payable to the AGENCY. The AGENCY will act as a fiduciary for all other interests in the Project.
Policy shall be provided for replacement value on an "all risk" basis for the completed value of the project. There shall be no coinsurance penalty or provisional limit provision in any such policy. Policy must include: (1) coverage for any ensuing loss from faulty workmanship, Nonconforming Work, omission or deficiency in design or specifications; (2) coverage against machinery accidents and operational testing; (3) coverage for removal of debris, and insuring the buildings, structures, machinery, equipment, materials, facilities, fixtures and all other properties constituting a part of the Project; (4) Ordinance or law coverage for contingent rebuilding, demolition, and increased costs of construction; (5) transit coverage (unless insured by the supplier or receiving contractor), with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any key equipment item; (6) Ocean marine cargo coverage insuring any Project materials or supplies, if applicable; (7) coverage with sub-limits sufficient to insure the full replacement value of any property or equipment stored either on or off the Site or any staging area. Such insurance shall be on a form acceptable to Agency to ensure adequacy of terms and sublimits and shall be submitted to the Agency prior to commencement of construction.
Other provisions or requirements
Proof of insurance. CONTRACTOR shall provide certificates of insurance to AGENCY as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers’ compensation. Insurance certificates and endorsements must be approved by AGENCY’s risk manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with AGENCY at all times during the term of this contract. AGENCY reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
Duration of coverage. CONTRACTOR shall procure and maintain for the duration of the contract insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property, which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Work hereunder by CONTRACTOR, his agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors.

Packet Page 311
EMERGENCY ASBESTOS ABATEMENT OF THE POLICE STATION
Exhibit B
Primary/noncontributing. Coverage provided by CONTRACTOR shall be primary and any insurance or self-insurance procured or maintained by AGENCY shall not be required to contribute with it. The limits of insurance required herein may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of AGENCY before the AGENCY’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
Products/completed operations coverage. Products/completed operations coverage shall extend a minimum of three (3) years after project completion.
Coverage shall be included on behalf of the insured for covered claims arising out of the actions of independent contractors.

Policy shall specifically provide for a duty to defend on the part of the insurer. The AGENCY, its officials, officers, agents, and employees, shall be included as additional insureds under the Products and Completed Operations coverage.
Agency’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, AGENCY has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by AGENCY will be promptly reimbursed by CONTRACTOR or AGENCY will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from CONTRACTOR payments. In the alternative, AGENCY may cancel this Agreement.
Acceptable insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance or is on the List of Approved Surplus Line Insurers in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the AGENCY’s risk manager.
Waiver of subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against AGENCY, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees and volunteers or shall specifically allow CONTRACTOR or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. CONTRACTOR hereby waives its own right of recovery against AGENCY, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
Packet Page 312
EMERGENCY ASBESTOS ABATEMENT OF THE POLICE STATION
Exhibit B
Enforcement of contract provisions (non estoppel). CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the AGENCY to inform CONTRACTOR of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the AGENCY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.
Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the CONTRACTOR maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the AGENCY requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by the CONTRACTOR. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to the AGENCY.
Notice of cancellation. CONTRACTOR agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to AGENCY with a thirty (30) day notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which a ten (10) day notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage.
Additional insured status. General liability policies shall provide or be endorsed to provide that AGENCY and its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be additional insureds under such policies. This provision shall also apply to any excess/umbrella liability policies.
Prohibition of undisclosed coverage limitations. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to AGENCY and approved of in writing.
Separation of insureds. A severability of interests provision must apply for all additional insureds ensuring that CONTRACTOR’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the insurer’s limits of liability. The policy(ies) shall not contain any cross-liability exclusions.
Pass through clause. CONTRACTOR agrees to ensure that its subconsultants, subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by CONTRACTOR, provide the same minimum insurance coverage and endorsements required of CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section.
Packet Page 313
EMERGENCY ASBESTOS ABATEMENT OF THE POLICE STATION
Exhibit B
CONTRACTOR agrees that upon request, all agreements with consultants, subcontractors, and others engaged in the project will be submitted to AGENCY for review.
Agency’s right to revise requirements. The AGENCY reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the CONTRACTOR a ninety (90) day advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the CONTRACTOR, the AGENCY and CONTRACTOR may renegotiate CONTRACTOR’s compensation.
Self-insured retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by AGENCY. AGENCY reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by AGENCY.
Timely notice of claims. CONTRACTOR shall give AGENCY prompt and timely notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from CONTRACTOR’s performance under this Agreement, and that involve or may involve coverage under any of the required liability policies.
Additional insurance. CONTRACTOR shall also procure and maintain, at its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the Work.

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 10.A.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Haroon Noori, Administrative Analyst II
DATE: January 16, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING FIRST SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT TO THE FY2024-2025 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN FOR
THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG)
PROGRAM
RECOMMENDATION
Hold a Public Hearing regarding the First Substantial Amendment to the FY2024-2025 Annual Action Plan and adopt a resolution to:
1. Approve the First Substantial Amendment to the FY 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan;
2. Authorize the City Manager to submit the First Substantial Amendment to the FY2024-2025 Annual Action Plan to U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); and
3. Designate the City Manager, or the City Manager’s designee, as the official representative to sign all certifications and assurances, and sub-agent agreements for the use of funds approved in the First Substantial Amendment to the FY 2024-2025 Annual Action Plan.
BACKGROUND
The City of Seaside (City) is a recipient of federal entitlement grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. As a recipient of these funds, the City must adopt an Annual Action Plan (AAP) outlining the activities that will be undertaken during the program year to meet the goals stated in the City’s 5-year Consolidated Plan for the CDBG program.
The Citizen Participation Plan for Seaside’s CDBG Program requires the City to hold a 30-day public comment period and a public hearing when any of the following is under Packet Page 315
Item No. 10.A. Page 2 of 4
consideration:
• Carrying out an activity not previously described in the AAP; • Canceling an activity previously described in the AAP; • Increasing or decreasing the amount to be expended on a particular activity from the amount stated in the AAP by more than 20 percent of the CDBG grant allocation for the program year; or
• Substantially changing the purpose, scope, location, or beneficiaries of an activity.
DISCUSSION:
On June 6, 2024, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 CDBG Annual Action Plan. As part of this plan, the City Council approved $340,000 for the San Pablo Bridge demolition and reconstruction project in FY24/25. At the time of the City Council approval of the CDBG funding for this project, the Seaside Public Works department was still identifying other sources of funding to cover the cost of the entire project.
The City's current year allocation is $327,373. At the start of this year, the City had a balance of approximately $227,007 in its CDBG account (which includes unexpended program income and CDBG funds from prior program years). The City also anticipates receiving $105,000 in program income (i.e. land lease rent payment by Embassy Suites) around February 2025. Having received the allocation of funds for the current year plus the anticipated program income, the City's fund balance (equal to the starting balance plus the deposits mentioned above) is estimated to be approximately $659,000 in March 2025. This presents a problem, as on May 2, 2025, HUD will run a timeliness test on this balance to ensure it does onto exceed a balance of greater than 1.5 times the annual allocation. This means that any funds exceeding $491,059 (1.5 time the City's annual allocation) will be forfeited back to HUD. Further, the failure of the City to expend funds in a timely manner could impact future allocations. It is therefore imperative that at least $168,000 be spent prior to May 2, 2025.
Recently, the Seaside Public Works department advised the Seaside Community Development department, the City's CDBG program administrator, that other sources of funding for San Pablo Bridge demolition and reconstruction project may not be available until 2026. This prompted City CDBG staff to re-evaluate the San Pablo Bridge project.
City CDBG staff learned through research that the San Pablo Bridge demolition and reconstruction project no longer meets the Low- and Moderate-Income (LMI) National Objective requirements based on revised American Community Survey (ACS) LMI data.
As a result, the City must reallocate these funds to other eligible public facilities and infrastructure projects.
Staff has prioritized identifying projects which can be executed promptly, qualify for CDBG funding, and would have a positive impact on the community. Public Works staff have identified a significant number of planned improvements to promote accessibility Packet Page 316
Item No. 10.A. Page 3 of 4
under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that would benefit from such funding.
More specifically, the proposed substantial amendment to the FY2024-25 AAP includes the following:
• Remove the San Pablo Bridge demolition and reconstruction project (funding amount: $340,000) from the AAP as it no longer meets the Low- and ModerateIncome (LMI) National Objective requirements based on revised American Community Survey (ACS) LMI data.
• Reallocate the $340,000 to a new Seaside Public Works curb ramp improvement project. The project will remove non-compliant curb returns and replace them with ADA compliant curb ramps per Caltrans A88A standard at selected intersections throughout the City.
Projects that address ADA needs are eligible regardless of LMI percentage. The Community Development Department concurs that ADA facility improvements are the most feasible projects given that many have already been identified, they can be executed quickly, they qualify for CDBG funding regardless of community income levels, and would benefit the community.
CITIZEN PARTICIPATION AND PUBLIC OUTREACH:
The draft substantial amendment was posted on the CDBG Program webpage on December 20, 2024 for public review. A Public Notice (in English and Spanish) regarding the proposed draft substantial amendment was also circulated in the Monterey County Weekly on December 19, 2024. The City allowed for a 30-day public comment period which began on Friday, December 20, 2024 and will end on Tuesday, January 21, 2025. Any public comments received during the 30-day public review period or at the public hearing will be incorporated into the substantial amendment and submitted to HUD.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
For purposes of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), budgeting is not a project. Prior to commitment or release of funds for each of the proposed projects, staff will carry out the required environmental reviews or assessments and certify that the review procedures under HUD, CEQA and NEPA regulations have been satisfied for each project.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will have no fiscal impact on the General Fund. Approval of this item will result in the reallocation of $340,000 (previously approved CDBG funds for the San Pablo pedestrian bridge demolition and reconstruction project) to a new Public Works project which will comprise of ADA curb ramp improvements throughout the City.

FOR THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM Public Comment Period: December 20, 2024 – January 21, 2025 Document Release Date: December 20, 2024

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Seaside (City) is a recipient of federal entitlement grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. As a recipient of these funds, the City must adopt an Annual Action Plan (AAP) outlining the activities that will be undertaken during the program year to meet the goals stated in the City’s 5-year Consolidated Plan for the CDBG program.
The Citizen Participation Plan for Seaside’s CDBG Program requires the City to hold a 30-day public comment period and a public hearing when any of the following is under consideration:
• Carrying out an activity not previously described in the AAP; • Canceling an activity previously described in the AAP; • Increasing or decreasing the amount to be expended on a particular activity from the amount stated in the AAP by more than 20 percent of the CDBG grant allocation for the program year; or
• Substantially changing the purpose, scope, location, or beneficiaries of an activity.
PROPOSED SUBSTANTIAL AMENDMENT TO THE FY2024-2025 ANNUAL ACTION PLAN:
On June 6, 2024, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 CDBG Annual Action Plan. As part of this plan, the City Council approved $340,000 for the San Pablo bridge demolition and reconstruction project in FY24/25. At the time of the City Council approval of the CDBG funding for this project, the Seaside Public Works department was still identifying other sources of funding to cover the cost of the entire project.
Recently, the Seaside Public Works department advised the Seaside Community Development department, the City's CDBG program administrator, that other sources of funding for this project may not be available until 2026. This prompted City CDBG staff to re-evaluate the San Pablo bridge project. City CDBG staff learned through research that the San Pablo bridge demolition and reconstruction project no longer meets the Low- and Moderate-Income (LMI) National Objective requirements based on revised American Community Survey Packet Page 322
(ACS) LMI data. As a result, the City must reallocate these funds to other eligible public facilities and infrastructure projects.
Staff has prioritized identifying projects which can be executed promptly, qualify for CDBG funding, and would have a positive impact on the community. Public Works staff have identified a significant number of planned improvements to promote accessibility under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that would benefit from such funding. More specifically, the proposed substantial amendment to the FY2024-25 AAP includes the following:
• Cancel the San Pablo bridge demolition and reconstruction project (funding amount: $340,000) as it no longer meets the Low- and Moderate-Income (LMI) National Objective requirements based on revised American Community Survey (ACS) LMI data.
• Reallocate $340,000 to a new Seaside Public Works curb ramp improvement project. The project will remove non-compliant curb returns and replace them with ADA compliant curb ramps per Caltrans A88A standard at selected intersections throughout the City.
Projects that address ADA needs are eligible regardless of LMI percentage. The Community Development Department concurs that ADA facility improvements are the most feasible projects given that many have already been identified, they can be executed quickly, they qualify for CDBG funding regardless of community income levels, and would benefit the community.

The Seaside City Council will hold a public hearing on the draft substantial amendment at the Seaside City Council Chamber on Thursday, January 16, 2025, at 5:00 p.m. The City Council meeting can also be watched online via the City’s YouTube channel at https://youtube.com/@CityofSeasideCalifornia or by joining the Zoom webinar.

Item No.: 11.B.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Thomas Korman, Public Works Director/City Engineer
Leslie Llantero, Assistant Engineer
DATE: January 16, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE 2024 HOT SPOT PAVEMENT REPAIR
PROJECT AND AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT TO
JV LUCAS PAVING INC. FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED
$614,032.50 AND TOTAL PROJECT CONSTRUCTION COST
INCLUDING CONTINGENCY OF AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED
$706,137.38
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the plans and specifications for the 2024 Hot Spot Pavement Repair Project.
BACKGROUND
On March 2, 2023, the City Council approved the Streets Pavement Rehabilitation Funding Policy (Policy). The Policy was created to provide additional funding sources for street maintenance and rehabilitation. The Policy provides that at the time of the midyear budget review, twenty five percent (25%) of any projected year-end operating budget surplus will be committed to the pavement rehabilitation project for the following year. The FY 2023-24 year-end operating surplus yielded $850,556.00 to be committed to this year's pavement rehabilitation project.
Similar to last year, the Project evaluations present a mixture of permanent repairs as well as temporary repair options. The temporary repairs are meant to act as a barrier such that the roadway does not further deteriorate and as a stop gap measure until funding is obtained for more appropriate treatment. PEI identified 501 locations amounting to over $7 million in pavement repairs. The evaluations were prioritized Packet Page 381
Item No. 11.B. Page 2 of 3

STAFF REPORT
Item No.: 11.C.
TO: City Council
FROM: Craig Malin, Interim City Manager
BY: Andreas Baer, Senior Engineer
Thomas Korman, Public Works Director/City Engineer
DATE: January 16, 2025
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING ADDITIONAL SCOPE OF
WORK AND CONTRACT AMENDMENT FOR A PLAYGROUND AT
LINCOLN CUNNINGHAM PARK (PHASE 1 - ARTERIAL TRAIL
PROJECT) FOR AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $742,800.00
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving additional construction scope for a playground and additional amenities for the Lincoln Cunningham Park (Phase 1 - Arterial Trail Project) from the Lincoln Cunningham and Havana Solitz Park Master Plan, amending the construction agreement to add the additional scope and raise the contract amount by up to $742,800.00 bringing the total project construction cost including contingency to a not to exceed value of $1,886,862.95, authorizing the City Manager to execute and approve any amendments, extensions, and change orders until completion of the project in accordance with the master plan up to the total project construction amount, and directing the use CIP project surplus funds to Lincoln Cunningham Project Account.
BACKGROUND
On January 30, 2023, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the preparation of concept plans for the development of an accessible trail and other amenities in Lincoln Cunningham and Havana Soliz Parks. Development of the Lincoln Cunningham and Havana Soliz Parks Conceptual Master Plan was the first phase of a larger Blue Zones Marquee Project that aims to improve health and well-being of the Seaside community by providing vibrant parks connected by a walk-able network of trails. The ultimate goal is to connect Manzanita-Stuart, Lincoln Cunningham, and Havana Soliz parks via a modern, accessible trail network.

Item No. 11.C. Page 2 of 4
Lincoln Cunningham Park Phase 1 - Arterial Trail Project is located in Lincoln Cunningham Park between Yosemite Street and Lincoln Street adjacent to San Pablo Avenue. The Project included construction of a concrete multi-use path through Lincoln Cunningham Park from San Pablo Avenue to Lincoln Street; pedestrian paths from the new multi-use path to Yerba Buena Court, Lindberg Court, and Serape Court; storm drainage improvements; curb ramp retrofits; sewer main repair; one on-street accessible parking stall on Lincoln Street between Lincoln Cunningham Park and Havana Soliz Park; and seeding for erosion control.
Lincoln Cunningham Park Phase 1 - Arterial Trail Project scope was scaled down from the complete Lincoln Cunningham Conceptual Master Plan due to limited funding.
However there is currently more funding available than originally anticipated allowing the city to complete additional work at the park pushing the project closer to completion. Additional funding results from the following sources:
- On November 21st the Seaside City Council appropriated $160,000 from NIC funding for additional work at Lincoln Cunningham Park
- The low bid from Monterey Peninsula Engineering (MPE) including Additive Alternative 1 was substantially less that the engineers estimate leaving over $300,000 available in the original project budget.
- Temporary construction work and paving were included in the phase 1 design in order to deliver a complete phase of work. The City can apply the money allocated for temporary structures to new permanent structures.
- Staff has identified project surplus funding in a number of general fund projects currently wrapping up including the Bike-Safe Grate Upgrades (Phase 2) project (account 212-8930-9600), Street Sign Upgrades Project (account 212-8960- 9600).
Modifying an existing contract will reduce the impact on the community and saves time and money when compared with closing one project, rebidding, and starting a new project. A new project will require staff time to manage and new bid documents to be developed, advertised, and bid. A new contract will require new administrative costs. It will require new construction mobilization and demobilization costs, and it will require new storm water management plans, and post construction planting and soil stabilization.
Staff believes that adequate funding is available from the above funding sources to complete the 5-12 year old play area, the community patio area, The utility work under and along concrete pathways, and concrete work around all of the play areas for the Lincoln Cunningham park in accordance with the master plan. The final result will not be a completed Lincoln Cunningham park, but the park will be far enough along to the point where building out the remaining amenities can be done with out closing the park, and by contracting direly with specialty sub contractors.
Staff recommends adopting the attached resolution to approve additional construction Packet Page 418
Item No. 11.C. Page 3 of 4
scope, and amending the construction agreement with MPE by adding transferring funding and adding up to a not to exceed amount of $742,800.00 to the existing contract.
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
Pursuant to preliminary review of the activities associated with this Council action in accordance with Section 15061 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this project is Categorically Exempt (Class 1, Section 15301 Existing Facilities). The project includes the repair and minor alteration of bicycle and pedestrian paths to meet, to the extent possible, current standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (public health and safety standards).
FISCAL IMPACT
There are sufficient funds available from the combination of NIC funds, surplus funding in the original Project account (342-8910-9581), Project savings from eliminating temporary structures, surplus funding from other ongoing CIP Projects, and Street Sign Upgrades Project for raising the construction agreement including construction contingency with Monterey Peninsula Engineering by the amount of $742,800.00.
