STAFF REPORT
CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2025
ORIGINATING DEPT: Engineering Department - Dan Goldberg, City Engineer SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Resolution 2025-030 Awarding a Construction Contract for the Solana Beach
Fire Station Emergency Generator Replacement
BACKGROUND:
The Solana Beach Fire Station was originally opened in 1991. As part of the construction of the Fire Station, an emergency stand-by generator was installed. Although the generator is still operational, it is nearing the end of its service life and requires frequent maintenance to remain operational.
The construction documents were prepared to meet current code and standards. The project was advertised for construction bids in early February 2025. The City received four construction bids for the Fire Station Emergency Stand-by Generator Replacement Project, Bid No. 2025-04. The bids were opened by the City Clerk on March 27, 2025.
This item is before the City Council to consider Resolution 2025-030 (Attachment 1) to award a construction contract to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc., for the replacement of the Fire Station emergency stand-by generator.
DISCUSSION:
Construction documents for the Fire Station Emergency Stand-by Generator Replacement, Bid No. 2025-04, were prepared and the project was advertised for construction bids. On March 27, 2025, four bids for Bid No. 2025-04 were received and publicly opened by the City Clerk. The bid results are listed below.
April 23, 2025
Award Solana Beach Fire Station Emergency Generator Replacement
Bid Results
Contractors Base Bid
Titans Group Corporation (non-responsive) $222,895
Pacific Power Engineering Technology, Inc. $243,000
Ace Electric, Inc. $285,000
Jennette Company, Inc. $330,000
At the time of bid opening on March 27, 2025, Titans Group Corporation did not possess an acceptable contractor license classification as specified in the Bid Documents. Staff considers the bid submitted by Titans Group Corporation to be considered nonresponsive and should be rejected.
The lowest responsive bid submitted by Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. was found to be complete and responsive to the bid specifications. Prior work references were checked and found to be satisfactory, and Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. has a valid contractor’s license. Staff is recommending that Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. be awarded the construction contract. The contract duration is 300 working days (approximately 60 weeks or 14 months). The contract duration is exceptionally long due to the long lead time required to obtain a new generator. At the time the project was advertised for construction bids, it was expected that delivery of a new generator would take approximately one year after being ordered. After bids were opened, Staff checked with Pacific Power Engineering Technology, Inc. about the lead time for delivery of a new generator and was told the current lead time is approximately 16 to 20 weeks. If that holds true, it is possible the project could be completed in seven to eight months instead of 14 months. The project specifications were written so that the existing emergency stand-by generator is to remain operational and serving the needs of the Fire Station until the new emergency stand-by generator is put into service.
Staff is also recommending a construction contingency of $30,000 (approximately 12%) to cover unexpected changes or site conditions encountered during construction. Since the lead time to obtain the emergency generator is approximately one year, it is expected that this project will not be completed until sometime in 2026.
CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:
All work is to be performed within the existing footprint of the Fire Station building and parking lot and therefore the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(d) of the State CEQA Guidelines.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The anticipated project costs are listed below.
April 23, 2025
Award Solana Beach Fire Station Emergency Generator Replacement
Item Amount
Construction Contract – Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. $243,000 Construction Contingency (12%) $30,000
Total $273,000
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) budget includes $250,000 for the replacement of the Fire Station Emergency Stand-by Generator Replacement, which includes $18,000 used for the redesign by Coffman Engineers, Inc. This results in a shortfall of $41,000. Staff is requesting additional appropriation of $41,000 from the Capital Projects Fund – Unreserved Fund Balance to cover the shortfall. Final Project cost will be reported to the City Council after the completion of the construction period as part of filing the Notice of Completion.
WORK PLAN:
This project is consistent with Item B.11 (Replacement of Emergency Generator at Fire Station) of the Community Character Priorities of the FY 2024/25 Work Plan.
OPTIONS:
• Adopt Staff recommendations and award construction contract. • Postpone contract award and provide direction to Staff. • Reject construction bids and provide alternative direction to Staff.
CITY STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2025-030:
1. Awarding a construction contract to Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. in the amount of $243,000 for the Fire Station Emergency Stand-by Generator Replacement, Bid No. 2025-04.
2. Approving an amount of $30,000 for construction contingency.
3. Authorizing the City Manager to execute the construction contract on behalf of the City.
4. Authorizing the City Manager to approve cumulative change orders up to the construction contingency amount.
5. Appropriating $41,000 from Capital Projects Fund – Unreserved Fund Balance to the Fire Station Emergency Generator Replacement project account.

STAFF REPORT
CITY OF SOLANA BEACH
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Alyssa Muto, City Manager
MEETING DATE: April 23, 2025
ORIGINATING DEPT: City Clerk / Information Technology / Finance Departments SUBJECT: Replacement of Office Equipment Leases
BACKGROUND:
The purpose of this report is to address replacements for three pieces of office equipment which are at the end of their 60-month lease. This equipment provides for the main copying/scanning/printing operations throughout City Hall. Xerox has been a preferred vendor for these multifunction printers due to their service response, productivity, user functionality, and the ability to utilize pricing/bidding which is pre-negotiated through a State/local TCPN/NIAP cooperative agreement.
This office equipment services approximately 37 Staff at City Hall and approximately 5-7 off-site Staff (parks and recreation, public works and marine safety) who utilize City Hall for these services. This equipment is a critical function of Staff’s workload as it provides efficiency in the way of producing electronic documents, copying/printing documents, and managing records. All three machines are the same model, with one machine having a ZFold feature added. They all copy/print/scan in black/white and color.
Three Xerox copier/printer/scanner machine’s locations are noted below:
Copier Location Use/Purpose
City Hall - 1st Floor
City Clerk Copy
Room
Copying/printing/scanning is used regularly by the City Clerk’s department as well as other departments from the 1st floor and personnel from other locations, Fire, Recreation, and Marine Safety.
City Hall - 1st Floor
Engineering/Planning
Copy Room
This machine has the added ZFold feature. This machine is used for major projects including the Council meeting Agenda packets. This machine is used primarily by the 1st floor but used by various Staff for large production jobs due to the workspace available in this area.
City Hall - 2nd Floor
Finance Copy Room
This machine is used by the 2nd floor (Finance, City Manager, IT, Community Services, Council).
April 23, 2025
Office Equipment Replacements
DISCUSSION:
The process of selecting office equipment includes assessing equipment quality and performance, service response and effectiveness, usability, and overall functionality. To date, Staff’s experience with office equipment that meets the City’s operational needs best has been with Xerox Corp., which has provided the most comprehensive performance of consistency and reliability in functionality and service. While alternative third-party brokers may offer lower upfront costs on different equipment models, the City’s priority is selecting office equipment that provides long-term reliability, efficient service response, and operational consistency. Staff’s experience with Xerox has demonstrated that working directly with the manufacturer ensures faster support response, direct warranty protections, and consistent performance that meets the City’s operational needs without disruption. Therefore, Staff’s recommendation is to continue this relationship with Xerox.
The cost of the current and the proposed leases (Attachment 2) utilized an estimate of the average number of copies per month based on the last 12 months, provided by Xerox.
Costs are estimates due to the cost of the copy, which is per page. Xerox charges a lease for each machine and then the City is charged for each copy made. The proposed equipment replacements will come with a slight decrease in color charges and no change in black/white charges. The proposed machine for all three locations is the Xerox C9265.
Overall estimated costs are reduced by $29.70 per month, based on the last 12 months of copies. The need for copies and printing has continued to go down over time with the increased use of electronic files and that scanning has increased over time, thereby preserving paper as much as possible. The table below is the estimated proposed costs per month for the three machines. Based on the estimated costs, the total cost over 60 months is approximately $107,018.
For all three-replacement recommendations, the change in models will have an insignificant effect on users since the familiarity with similar Xerox models will minimize the need for training and streamline the transition. These models will mirror current

functions, add some features at no additional cost, and greatly enhance color capability due to the change in technology over the last 5 years.
Approved Bidder Lists
Xerox is currently an approved contractor on The Cooperative Purchasing Network (TCPN) and OMNIA Partners, Public Sector, therefore it is within the City’s capacity to take advantage of replacement machines through this vendor without going through formal bidding practices consistent with Solana Beach Municipal Code section
3.08.130(C). These programs enable the City to receive the best pricing available to local government agencies and avoid hidden fees, utilize standardized contract templates, as well as minimize pricing, compliance, and supplier inefficiencies.
Therefore, Staff recommends entering into a new contract for 60 months for the leasing of necessary equipment from Xerox as it offers the best combination of features, capability, and overall value in product and service as well as an all-in-one solution.
CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT: Not a project as defined by CEQA.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funds for the lease and copy charges are paid from the Support Services budget unit under the Finance Department. The Xerox Primelink C9265 recommended for City Hall’s three locations is estimated at $107,018 over a 60-months lease for all three machines based on the set lease price and estimating copy/prints.
WORK PLAN: N/A
OPTIONS:
∙ Approve Staff recommendation.
∙ Deny Staff recommendation
∙ Provide Staff additional direction.
CITY STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommend that the City Council:
1. Adopt Resolution 2025-033 authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Xerox Corp. for the replacement of three multi-functional copier/printer/scanner machines.
CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Department Recommendation.

MEETING DATE: April 23, 2025
ORIGINATING DEPT: Public Works/Engineering Department – Luis Carrillo, Deputy Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: City Council Consideration of Amending the Professional Services Agreement with Nissho of California, Inc., for Landscape Maintenance Services
BACKGROUND:
At the regular City Council meeting on May 24, 2023, the Council adopted Resolution 2023-047, authorizing the City Manager to execute a Professional Services Agreement (Attachment 3) with Nissho of California, Inc., (Nissho) for City-wide landscape maintenance services, as well as as-needed services at various City sites, for a total notto-exceed amount of $388,652.84.
This item is before the City Council for consideration of Resolution 2025-034 (Attachment 1) to authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No.3 (Attachment 4) to the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Nissho, the City’s current service provider, for the maintenance of the newly constructed Highland Medians, in the amount of $3,554 per fiscal year, and the one-time planting of a Torrey Pine on the south end of the Coastal Rail Trail, in the amount of $14,000.
DISCUSSION:
Nissho has provided city-wide landscape maintenance since 2013, covering City parks, playgrounds, facilities, and public rights-of-way. They use eco-friendly soil amendments, fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides, along with efficient water management. Their team includes experts in landscaping and irrigation design, tree trimming, and horticulture, available to assist City Staff as needed.
April 23, 2025
PSA Amendment with Nissho of California, Inc.
Over the years, the City has added several new locations, each with unique characteristics and specific maintenance needs. Staff revised the current landscape maintenance agreement to include the newly constructed Highland Medians.
1. New location, Highland Medians. If approved, Nissho will maintain the Highland Medians, providing weed and litter removal, pruning, edging, plant replacement, mulching, and hand watering.
City Staff recommends adding $3,554 annually to Nissho’s PSA for this maintenance and a one-time addition of $14,000 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2024/2025 for planting a Torrey Pine on the Coastal Rail Trail. This new Torrey Pine tree is a replacement for a Torrey Pine that fell over during a storm in February 2025.
If approved, this would increase the FY 2024/2025 not-to-exceed contract amount to $406,206.84, with a not-to-exceed amount of $392,206.84 in subsequent years.
The 36 sites that would be maintained as part of this contract are included with this report in Attachment 2.
CEQA COMPLIANCE STATEMENT:
The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15301(h) of the State CEQA Guidelines as maintenance of existing landscaping.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The agreement, including the expanded scope of work, is funded through the FY 2024/25 Operating Budgets in the Streets, Parks, Public Facilities, MID # 33, and Coastal Rail Trail. City Staff recommends adding $3,554 to Nissho’s PSA for Highland Medians maintenance from Street Maintenance account 1006530.65260 and $14,000 for planting a Torrey Pine from Park Maintenance account 1006560.65260 as detailed below.

Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) is or becomes known to the public without fault or breach of the Receiving Party; (ii) the Disclosing Party regularly discloses to third parties without restriction on disclosure; or (iii) the Receiving Party obtains from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without breach of a non-disclosure obligation. Confidential Information does not include any information that is required to be provided to the public pursuant to the laws of the United States and/or California such as the California Public Records Act, due to the nature of CITY being a local governmental agency. The non-disclosure and non-use obligations of this AGREEMENT will remain in full force with respect to each item of Confidential Information for a period of ten (10) years after the Receiving Party's receipt of that item.
8.3. Enforcement. Each party acknowledges that any breach of any of the provisions of Section 8 of this AGREEMENT may result in irreparable injury to the other for which money damages would not adequately compensate. If there is a breach, then the injured party shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies which it may have, to have a decree of specific performance or an injunction issued by any competent court, requiring the breach to be cured or enjoining all persons involved from continuing the breach.

3.3 METHOD OF PERFORMING WORK
A) Irrigation
Irrigation shall be done by the use of automatic or mechanical sprinkler systems where available and operable; however, failure of the existing irrigation system to provide full and proper coverage shall not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility to provide adequate irrigation with full and proper coverage to all areas. Within first 60 days, Providers shall inspect sprinkler/irrigation systems and any needed part to bring system in full operating condition will be replaced by City at City expense. Provider is required to deliver non-functioning parts to Public Works after replacement.
In those areas where an automatic sprinkler system is installed, the Contractor shall periodically inspect the operation of the system for any malfunction. The maximum interval between inspections shall not exceed seven (7) days. The Contractor shall advise the Contract Administrator within twenty-four (24) hours of those malfunctions, which are the City's responsibility, as specified under general Conditions, Contractor's Responsibility. The Contractor shall maintain all sprinkler systems in such a way as to guarantee proper coverage and full working capability, and shall make whatever adjustments may be necessary to prevent excessive run-off into street rights-of-way or other areas not meant to be irrigated. The cost of wasted water may be charged to Contractor. Schedule of Tasks indicates frequency of expected inspection for electronic systems (A) and estimated watering cycles for manual (M) systems. Varying weather conditions may require additional watering cycles to maintain plant health. No additional payment will be made when additional watering cycles are required.
Inspection of the entire irrigation systems shall occur not less than once each month or as indicated in Schedule of Tasks and may occur more often, especially during the warmer months. All areas not adequately covered by a sprinkler system, or dry spots due to broken heads shall be irrigated by use of portables. An entire system or station shall not be activated to irrigate small isolated dry areas. The Contractor shall furnish all hoses, nozzles, sprinklers and et cetera, necessary to accomplish this supplementary irrigation. Care shall be exercised to prevent water waste, erosion,
and/or detrimental seepage into existing underground improvements or structures.
Irrigation shall be accomplished as follows:
1. All areas to be irrigated shall be tested several times a week with a soil probe to determine where and when it is necessary to apply water. Timing on controllers shall be regulated according to the individual area's moisture retention capacity taking into consideration weather, wind, sun, shade, temperature, and location.
The results shall be to maintain horticulturally acceptable growth, color, and to encourage deep rooting. Daily watering shall be avoided. However, additional irrigation may be necessary in the event of unusually hot/dry weather conditions (as are present during winter Santa Ana conditions, or other times of low humidity or high winds, or during a prolonged high temperature period during summer months). Water shall be applied at a rate, which keeps surface runoff to a minimum.
2. Newly planted trees, shrubs, ground cover and turf shall receive special attention until these plants are established. Adequate water and fertilizer shall be applied to promote normal, healthy growth. Proper berms or basins shall be maintained during the establishment period.
3. Where sprinkler systems do not exist, the Contractor shall water all vegetation as required. The Contractor shall supply all hoses, nozzles, and sprinklers.
Watering shall be performed such that it encourages healthy growth and pleasing appearance.

All shrubs and ground cover plants growing in the work areas shall be pruned as required to maintain plants in a healthy, growing condition; to maintain plant growth within reasonable bounds; and to prevent encroachment of passage ways, walks, streets, or view of signs; or encroachment in any manner deemed objectionable by the Contract Administrator. Dead or damaged limbs shall be removed with sharp pruning tools in accordance with attached pruning and trimming guidelines.
Pruning shall be done so as to permit plants to grow naturally in accordance with their normal growth characteristics except where box hedging is required by the Contract Administrator. Shearing, hedging or severe pruning of plants, unless authorized by the Contract Administrator, shall not be permitted. Growth regulators shall not be used. See attached Pruning Guide.
C. Tree Maintenance
1. All trees shall be maintained in their natural shapes. Pruning shall be performed in such a manner as to promote the best growth habits, appearance, and health of the tree, and to prevent encroachment which blocks vision or is in any manner deemed undesirable by the Contract Administrator. The Contractor shall, as part of this contract, be responsible for tree pruning that can be accomplished with a twelve (12) foot pole saw by a worker standing on the ground. Trees shall not be
topped. The Contractor shall bring to the attention of the Contract Administrator within twenty-four (24) hours any tree that shows signs of root heaving or leaning, or is in any manner a safety hazard. See attached Pruning Guide.
The Contractor shall be responsible for the complete removal and replacement of those trees lost due to Contactor's faulty maintenance or negligence, as determined by the Contract Administrator. Replacement shall be made by the Contractor in the kind and size of tree determined by the Contract Administrator.
Where there is a difference in value between the tree lost and the replacement tree, the difference will be deducted from the contract payment. In all cases, the value of the tree lost shall be determined by the Contract Administrator, using the latest International Society of Arboriculture (I.S.A.) guidelines for value determination.
2. All newly planted trees and other trees needing support shall be securely staked with two (2) "lodge pole" type stakes placed on opposite sides of the tree outside the root ball and secured to the tree with a least two flexible rubber tree ties.
3. Tree ties and stakes shall be inspected regularly and repositioned as necessary to ensure against girdling and abrasion.
4. Trees and shrubs that are uprooted due to storms shall be up righted immediately, if possible. If this is not possible, they shall be removed immediately (including roots) and the holes must be filled.
D. Fertilization
The Contractor shall inform the Contract Administrator at least forty-eight (48) hours before beginning any fertilization and shall have previously submitted Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), and a schedule of application showing the site, date and approximate time of application of the fertilizer. Submission of the fertilizer schedule does not release the Contractor from any of the other obligations described in this paragraph or in the following paragraphs. The fertilization schedule, regardless of its intensity, timing, or the number of sites covered daily or weekly, shall not excuse the Contractor from performing any other work regularly required under this contract.
Fertilizer shall be delivered to the Highland Maintenance facility, located at 1764 Highland Ave., Solana Beach, and be in the original unopened containers bearing the manufacturer's guaranteed analysis. Damaged packages will not be accepted.
The Contractor shall furnish the Contract Administrator with duplicate signed, legible copies of all certificates and invoices for all fertilizer to be used in this contract. The invoices must state the grade, amount and quantity received. Both the copy to be retained by the City and the Contractor's copy must be signed by the Contract Administrator before any material may be spread at the site. The Contractor may
not begin the actual application until the obligation in the preceding paragraph has been complied with.
Fertilizers shall be applied at the rates specified below:
■ One (1) pound of actual nitrogen per 1,000 square feet shall be applied to turf as specified.
■ One (1) pound of actual nitrogen per 1,000 square feet of planted area shall be applied to shrubs, vines, ground covers and trees as specified.
Acceptable complete fertilizers include, but are not limited to: Nitra King 22-3-9-(S), Turf Supreme 16-6-8, or Turf Supreme with Best-Cote 15-5-7. Acceptable organic fertilizers include, but are not limited to: Milorganite or Gro-power, which have been processed to remove excess levels of salt.
As deemed necessary by the Contract Administrator to achieve required results, other materials including, but not limited to, iron chelate, soil sulfur, gypsum, surfactant enzymes such as Sarvon or Naiad, etc., may be needed and shall be applied as necessary at the contractor's expense.
Adequate irrigation shall immediately follow the application of fertilizers and/or amendments to force fertilizer material to rest directly on the soil surface. Drip irrigated areas shall be adequately hand watered using quick coupler valves and hoses to dissolve fertilizer.
Fertilizer must occur on prescribed days, and shall be accomplished in a manner so as to achieve an even green. If fertilization results are patchy, remedial fertilizer must be applied immediately.
E. Weed Removal
Weeds shall be removed from all turf grass areas, shrub and ground cover areas, planters, tree wells, slopes, cracks in paved areas, including sidewalks, areas covered with ornamental rocks and bark mulch, and in gutters and curbs, as shown in Service Frequencies and Schedule of Tasks.
This means complete removal of all weed growth. For the purpose of this specification a weed will be considered "any undesirable or misplaced plant". Weeds shall be controlled by manual, mechanical, or chemical methods.
The Contract Administrator may restrict the use of chemical wed control in certain areas.
Center island maintenance shall include the removal of weeds growing in all paved or unpaved surfaces of the center island.
F. Disease and Pest Control
The Contractor shall regularly inspect all landscaped areas for presence of disease, insect or rodent infestation. The Contractor shall advise the Contract Administrator within four (4) days if disease, insect or rodent infestation is found; Contractor shall identify the disease, insect or rodent and specify control measures to be taken. Upon approval of the Contract Administrator, the Contractor shall implement the approved control measures, exercising extreme caution in the application of all sprays, dusts, or other materials utilized.
Approved control measures shall be continued until the disease, insect or rodent is controlled to the satisfaction of the Contract Administrator. The Contractor shall utilize all safeguards necessary during disease, insect or rodent control operations to ensure safety of the public and the employees of the Contractor, in accordance with current standard practices accepted by the State of California Dept. of Food and Agriculture. If contractor is unable to control the pest or disease, a pest control company will be hired and the billing will be deducted from contractor' monthly payment.
All individuals who supervise the mixing and application of herbicides, pesticides and rodenticides shall possess valid Qualified Applicators Certificate for Category B issued to them by the State Dept. of Food and Agriculture.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN
Section I - Purpose
The purpose of this Integrated Pest Management (1PM) plan is to direct health conscious and environmentally sensitive pest management strategies on city owned or controlled properties and public rights of way, in accordance with applicable federal, state and local regulations.
Section II - Policy
The city will focus on the prevention and suppression of pest issues with the least impact on human health, the environment, and non-target organisms. In particular, the use of chemical pesticides on city owned or operated properties and public rights of way will be significantly reduced, according to these guiding principles:
A. Emphasize the initial use of organic pesticides.
8. Limit the use of chemical pesticides where the general public congregates.
C. Use EPA level pesticides in a targeted manner, and only if deemed necessary by supervisory staff - to protect public safety; to prevent a threat to sensitive species or native habitats; to assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements; or to prevent economic loss - when pests cannot be managed by other tactics.
Section Ill - Goals
The goals of the 1PM plan are:
A. Protect human health and the surrounding environment by implementing a range of preventative strategies, and using the least-toxic pesticides available for pest control and eradication.
8. Monitor presence of pests on a routine basis to ensure the most effective (combination of) pest control tactics are being use. Reference Section VI.E.6.
C. Minimize the quantity of products used for pest management.
D. Use species-specific products for pest management and carefully target application areas.
E. Chemical pesticides shall only be applies to: protect public safety; to prevent a threat to sensitive species or native habitats; to assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements; or to prevent economic loss - when pests cannot be managed by other tactics.
F. Provide public notification signs at perimeter of outdoor areas or at entrances of buildings, where chemical pesticides are to be applied.
One of the characteristics of an 1PM approach that make it effective is that the basic decision making process is the same for any pest problem in any location. The strategies and tactics may change, but the steps taken to decide if and when treatment is needed, and which methods to use, are the same each time. The 1PM plan is built around the following components:
A. Routinely monitoring the best populations and other relevant factors B. Accurately identifying the pest
C. Determining injury and action levels that trigger treatments D. Timing treatments to the best advantage
E. Spot treating the pest (to minimize human and other non-target organism exposure to pesticides)
F. Selecting least disruptive tactics
G. Evaluation the effectiveness of treatments to determine future actions Evaluation [ Identification

)
Action Monitoring
Section V - General Preventative Practices
General preventative practices are simple landscaping procedures that eliminate sources of food, water and shelter that attract pests to the building or grounds. The city shall use the following methods as foremost means for controlling pests and preventing outbreaks:
A. Install mulch and other landscaping best practices to promote soil and plant health.
B. Use weed-free soil amendments.
C. Plan and maintain landscape features to eliminate safe havens for pests and rodents.
D. Clean up plant debris, especially from fruit-bearing trees.
E. Remove invasive plants that are known to harbor or provide food for pests.
Section VI - Pest Control Tactics
Integrated Pest Management uses a variety of pest control tactics in a compatible manner that minimizes adverse effects to human health and the environment. A combination of several control tactics is usually more effective in minimizing pest damage than any single control method. The type of control(s) selected will likely vary on a case-by-case basis due to differing site conditions.
The primary pest control tactics to choose from include:
• Cultural
• Mechanical
• Environmental/Physical
• Biological
• Pesticide
A. Cultural Controls
Cultural controls are modifications of normal plant care activities that reduce or prevent pests. Cultural control methods include adjusting the frequency and amount of irrigation, fertilization, and mowing height. For example, spider mite infestations are worse on water stressed plants; over-fertilization may cause succulent growth which then encourages aphids; too low of a mowing height may thin turf and allow weeds to become established.
B. Mechanical Controls
Mechanical control tactics involve the use of manual labor and machinery to reduce or eliminate pest problems, such as handpicking, physical barriers, or machinery. Other examples include hoeing and applying mulch to control weeds, using trap boards for snails and slugs, and use of traps for gophers.
C. Environmental/Physical Controls
The use of environmental/physical controls such as altering temperature, light, and humidity, can be effective in controlling pests. Although in outdoor situations these tactics are difficult to use for most pests, they can be effective in controlling birds and mammals if their habitat can be modified such that they do not choose to live or roost in the area. Other examples include removing garbage in a timely manner, and using netting or wire to prevent birds from roosting.
D. Biological Controls
Biological control practices use living organisms to reduce pest populations. These organisms are often also referred to as beneficials, natural enemies or biocontrols.
They act to keep pest populations low enough to prevent significant economic damage.
Biocontrols include pathogens, parasites, predators, competitive species, and antagonistic organisms. Biocontrols can occur naturally or they can be purchased and released.
The most common organisms used for biological control in landscapes are predators, parasites, pathogens and herbivores.
• Predators are organisms that eat their prey (e.g. Ladybugs) • Parasites spend part of their life cycle associated with their host. Common parasites lay their eggs in or on their host and then the eggs hatch, the larvae feed on the host, killing it (e.g. tiny stingless wasps for aphids and whiteflies) • Pathogens are microscopic organisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that cause diseases in pest insects, mites, nematodes, or weeds (e.g. Bacillus thuringiensis or BT)
• Herbivores are insects or animals that feed on plants. These are effective for weed control. Biocontrols for weeds eat seeds, leaves, or tunnel into plant stems (e.g., goats and some seed and stem borers)
In order to conserve naturally occurring biocontrols, broad-spectrum pesticides should not be used since the use of these types of pesticides may result in secondary pest outbreaks due to the mortality of natural enemies that may be keeping other pests under control.
E. Pesticide Controls
As defined in California Food and Agriculture Code Section 12753, "Pesticide" includes any of the following: (a) any spray adjuvant; (b) any substance, or mixture of substances which is intended to be used for defoliating plants, regulating plant growth or for preventing, destroying, repelling or mitigating any pest. .. which may infest or be detrimental to vegetation, man, animals, or households, or be present in any agricultural or nonagricultural environment whatsoever. The term pesticides includes organic products and chemical products. Insecticides, herbicides, fungicides and rodenticides are all pesticides.
Pesticides may be used when other methods fail to provide adequate control of pests and before pest populations cause unacceptable damage. When pesticides are to be used, considerations will be made for how to apply them most effectively.
Pesticides that are broad-spectrum and persistent shall be avoided, since they can cause more environmental damage and increase the likelihood of pesticide resistance.
The overuse of pesticides can cause beneficial organisms to be killed and pest resistance to develop. In addition, considerations should be given to the proximity to water bodies, irrigation schedules, weather, etc., that may result in the pesticide being moved off-site, into the environment.
1. Criteria for Selecting Treatment Strategies
Once the 1PM decision making process in place and monitoring indicates that pest treatment is needed, the choice of specific strategies can be made. Strategies will be chosen that are:
a) Least hazardous to human health
b) Least disruptive of natural controls in landscape situations c) Least toxic to non-target organisms other than natural controls d) Most likely to be permanent and prevent recurrence of the pest problem e) Easiest to carry out safely and effectively
f) Most cost effective in the long term
g) Appropriate to the site and maintenance system
2. Selection of Appropriate Pesticides
The following criteria will be used when selecting a pesticide:
a) Safety
b) Species specificity
c) Effectiveness
d) Endurance
e) Speed
f) Repellency
g) Cost
When selecting pesticides, supervisory staff will rely on advisement from State of California certified pest control applicators, to ensure that the most appropriate pesticide is selected.
3. Prioritized Use of Pesticides
Pesticides are to be utilized in a prioritized approach on city properties as follows:
a) Organic pesticides to be used first, when pesticides are deemed necessary. b) Pesticides registered with the California Department of Pesticide Regulations Registrations Branch to be used as a protocol.
c) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Toxicity Category Ill "Caution" label pesticides to be used in a targeted manner by a certified pest control applicator, and only if deemed necessary by supervisory staff - to protect public safety; to prevent threats to sensitive species or native habitats; to assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements; or to prevent economic loss - when pests cannot be managed by other tactics.
d) U.S. EPA Toxicity Category II "Warning" label pesticides to be used in a targeted manner by a certified pest control applicator, and only if deemed necessary by supervisory staff - to protect public safety; to prevent threats to sensitive species or native habitats; to assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements; or to prevent economic loss - when pests cannot be managed by other tactics. e) U.S. EPA Toxicity Category I "Danger" label pesticides, to be used in a targeted manner by a certified pest control applicator, and only if deemed necessary by supervisory staff - to protect public safety; to prevent threats to sensitive species or native habitats; to assist in meeting regulatory compliance requirements; or to prevent economic loss - when pests cannot be managed by other tactics.
4. Certification and Permitting
Restricted use pesticides shall only be applied by, or under the direct supervision of, an individual with a State of California, Department of Pesticide Regulations, Qualified Applicators Certificate.
Pesticides listed as "restricted" in the State of California shall be applied only under a restricted materials permit, issued by the San Diego County Department of Agriculture, Weights and Measures. The permit must be renewed annually for continued application.
5. Employee Training
Staff and contractors must know the information on the chemical label and the MSDS before using or handling the chemical. In addition, they will be trained annually and when a new pesticide is to be used.
The certified pest control applicators must know:
• The immediate and long-term health hazards posed by chemicals to be used, the common symptoms of chemical poisoning, and the ways poisoning could occur; and
• The safe work practices to be followed, including the appropriate protective clothing, equipment, mixing, transportation, storage, disposal and spill cleanup procedures applicable to the chemical used
• In addition to the training and annual continuing education required for certification, staff will be encouraged to participate in pesticide application programs that are above and beyond minimum compliance requirements.
6. Record Keeping
Monitoring the effectiveness of the 1PM plan over time requires diligent tracking of several items: pest populations and locations; management strategies employed; quantities and types of chemicals or other products used; and the outcome of pest management activities. The certified pest control applicator is responsible for maintaining, and submitting to the city as requested, records that include the following:
a) Target pest
b) Prevention and other non-chemical methods of control used c) Type and quantity of pesticide used
d) Location of the pesticide application
e) Date of pesticide application
f) Name of the pesticide applicator
g) Application equipment used
h) Summary of results
7. Materials for Use - Least Toxic Pesticides
Pesticides are considered a secondary resort under the tenets of 1PM. This control strategy is to be used on city owned or controlled properties and rights of way after general preventative practices and non-chemical options - including organic pesticides - have been fully explored. Least-toxic pesticides meet the following criteria:
a) Products contain no known, likely, or probable carcinogens - as listed by the CA Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment.
b) Products contain no reproductive toxicants (CA Prop 65). c) Products contain no items listed by the CA Department of Toxic Substance.
Control as known, probable, or suspected endocrine disrupters. d) Active ingredients have soil half-line of thirty days or less. e) Products are labeled as not toxic to fish, birds, bees, wildlife, or domestic animals.
8. Notification Signs
Chemical pesticide application notification signs shall meet the following criteria:
a) Posted at a perimeter of outdoor areas or at building entrances, where chemical pesticides are to be applied.
b) Posted at least 24 hours prior to application of chemical pesticides and shall remain for at least 72 hours after the application.
c) Include "Notice - Pesticide Treated Area," and product's/manufacturer's name, scheduled date of application, and pest to be controlled - e.g., weeds, insects, rodents.
9. Revisions
Staff will review this 1PM plan annually at minimum, and update it as needed.
