PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Design West Engineering will provide engineering services for the City of South Gate"s initiative to upgrade the emergency backup power systems at five essential city facilities. This crucial project aims to ensure the continuity of critical services during power blackouts and other events that could result in long-term power outages. The five facilities under consideration are:
1. City of South Gate Police Department
2. City of South Gate City Hall
3. Public Works Maintenance Yard
4. South Gate Park Auditorium
5. Court House Building
APPROACH
Phase I I Assessment
Task 1: Project Management l In the initial phase of the project, Design West Engineering will appoint our Electrical Department Head Roy Morales as the Project Manager to oversee all project activities and ensure effective coordination with relevant stakeholders. He will maintain continuous communication with the City Project Manager and other stakeholders, facilitating meetings for the assessment of each facility's existing backup power system. These meetings will involve communicating conceptual layouts for facility modifications and coordinating with City officials, utility companies, and regulatory agencies. Additionally, monthly project status reports will be provided to keep all parties informed of progress. 117
Pige I
Task 2: Assessment of Existing Backup Systems l The next step involves assessing the performance and condition of existing backup systems at all five facilities. Ourteam will document electrical system configurations, MEP layouts, and any major deficiencies. We will conduct interviews with building maintenance staff, review maintenance records, and document power platform and electrical distribution layouts.
Task 3: Power Needs Assessment l Subsequently, we will review the inventory of equipment relying on electrical power at all five facilities and interview City staff to determine current and future power demands.
This will allow us to establish backup power requirements for each facility and develop probable cost estimates for each scenario, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the project scope.
Phase 2 I Design & Specification Development
Task4: RegulatoryReviewand Permittingl Duringthis phase, Design West Engineeringwill ensure compliance with State and local building codes, air emission standards, and other relevant regulations at all five facilities.
We will obtain all required plan checks, reviews, and permits, while also coordinating with City officials, utility managers, and relevant agencies. Additionally, we will document any required safety equipment and operational procedures to meet legal standards.
Task 5: Conceptual Plans l Conceptual plans will be developed with recommended revisions to building ayouts for all five facilities. This will include accommodat'ng generator platform revisions if needed, external equipment for emergency power connection, outlining MEP modifications, and providing planning-level cost estimates for each facility.
Task 6: Equipment and Backup Generator Specifications l To ensure optimal equipment selection, we will develop specifications for backup power generators and related equipment at all five facilities. This wi encompass recommending operating procedures, maintenance requirements, warranty specifications, and manufacturers. Equipment specifications will be closely coordinated with building and platform layouts, with the inclusion of Transfer Switch options as needed.
Task 7: Plans and Specifications for Installation l Detailed plans and specifications for building and MEP modifications, generatorinstallation, and building enclosures will be developed for all five facilities. These plans will include instructions for the removal and salvage of old equipment. We will submit 60% and 90% design plans for City review, ensuring alignment with project objectives, and prepare final plans and specificat'ons signed by licensed engineers. Coordination with sub-consultants, utilities, and stakeholders will be a priority.
Phase 3 I Construction
Task 8: Cost Estimates l In the construct'on phase, Design West Engineering will bring on HLCM as a sub- consultant who will then develop 50% and 100% detailed cost estimates for backup power generator procurement and installation at each of the f've facilities. These cost estimates will break down expenses for hardware, electronic options, building modifications, platform changes, and MEP modifications, supported by documentation from recent similar bids.
Task 9: Construction Bidding Phase l Our team will prepare a Construction Bid Package for all five facilities, attend pre-bid meetings, assist in analyzing bids, and manage quest'ons and responses to bidders. Addenda will be prepared as needed to ensure clarity and transparency throughout the bidding process.
Task 10: Pre-construchon Meeting and Job Site Meetings I Additionally, Design West Engineering will actively participate in pre-construction and job site meetings as necessary for all five facilities, preparing agendas and meeting minutes to facilitate effective communicat'on.
Task 11: Respond to Requests for Information and Submittals I Throughout the construction phase, Design West Engineering will respond to contractor's requests forinformat'on, provide field design recommendations, and maintain a log of RFI responses and meetings, ensuring that the project proceeds smoothly and according topan.
This comprehensive approach will enable Design West Engineering to assess, design, and upgrade the emergency backup generators at all five essential City of South Gate facilities, ensuring their reliability during power outages and emergencies.

Scheduling and Sequencing
By breaking the project into milestones, our project managers are able to track the schedule in smaller amounts of time and complete the overall project on time. Every project is registered into a custom database that we have created for project tracking and management using the Ajera platForm from Deltek. The database contains all of the project information related to contacts, due dates, schedule and budgets.
Through the database, project managers use reports and scheduling tools to see where potential scheduling issues may arise. Our teams are built around flexibility so that other teams can help out if a team becomes overloaded. On Monday of every week, a project managers meehing is held to discuss project status, upcoming deadlines, and lessons learned throughout the past week. The essons learned are discussed and documented so that they can be benefited from in future project designs.
Part of the reason our company has had such great success is attributed to learning from our failures and avoiding them in the future.
Budget Management
As construction markets ebb and flowin a constant flux, managing project budgets is an ever-evolving skill. We rely on a handful of tried and true techniques that helps us come in with consistently accurate rough order of magnitude costing.
First and foremost, as we establish the project schedules and deliverable milestones with the client, we are thinkingthroughthemosteffectivepointstore-evaluatesystemcosts. Withmostanyproject,theconstruction budgets are established by the client at the initiation of the project. But as design decisions are made and a project establishes a direction, these ideas need to be routinely weighed against the budget.
For establishing rough order of magnitude costing at each milestone, we included a cost estimator, HLCM, on our team of sub-consultants. They are up-to-date on market fluctuations that could impact any project. 119

QA / QC
Constructability of Bid Documents
At the beginning of every project, we work with our client to establish the project schedule. Following this, we set our internal design schedule to accommodate internal milestone reviews at each phase that will look at buildability, coordination of disciplines, marketability to bidders, completeness, and construction quality control provisions. At each milestone, projects are placed in a design review lo@ that is tracked by a dedicated QC manager. The log contains the date submitted and the date comments are required to maintain the project schedule. The QC manager provides the initial review based on a design review checklist that corresponds with design checklists. Design reviews are performed electronically using powerful tools provided within Bluebeam(C PDF review software. The master QC checklists are maintained inside of Bluebeam. Each comment can be placed directly on construction drawings during review. This practice has streamlined the design review process by eliminating the need to re-write common review comments and has created a workflow where every review goes through the entire checklist. Major milestone submittals are submitted to department heads for additional review. Once completed, project managers are notified of comments. The QC manager verifies
that the design review comments are incorporated into the plans prior to the next drawing submittal. When l,, submiteing electronic documents, the final documents to t- be sent go through a final review to verify accuracy and .:'.'..'::,., integrity. This prevents last minute technical errors due to plotting, missing files, etc.
Design QualityAssurance/Quality Control Overview
As design projects approach construction, the QA/QC process is crucial and a thing that sets teams apart. nternally, our team has established a master checklist that is applied to each discipline for each project. In addition to the checklists, at the project initiation, there are other Principals and Key Project Managers within our company who are appointed to quality control. These are individuals who have not been involved with the design process. They will give these projects a complete review before bidding and before plan check and perhaps at otherintervals as necessary and as determined at project initiation. This provides fresh perspective and ensures we are delivering the highest quality of documents possible. All this, in the end, will help minimize the number of review comments needed from outside agencies, the time to complete construction, and the potential for change orders.

Lessons Learned Notebook
Design West maintains a central "Lessons Learned" notebook to log any lessons learned from past projects.
Lessons learned are used for training, design improvement and for improving the design review process. The lessons learned notebook is accessible to all team members. Each Monday, a project managers' meeting is held to discuss project status and review current lessons learned. All change order requests are routed to the QC manager for review. The QC manager will implement updates or changes in the project checklist to avoid repeated mistakes using past change orders and lessons learned. 125

REQUIRED DISCLOSURE
Litigation l Pending Professional Liability Claims and Disputes
1. US Alliance Holden of San lose, US Alliance Holden of San Jose, LCC VS HPI Architects and Design West Engineering, San Jose. This case was settled in January 2022.
2. Pace San Ysidro, McCullough Plumbing Inc vs Design west Engineering Inc. Travelers Property Casualty company of America, San Diego. This case is in mediation at this time.
3. WinpakLane,lncvsPacificDesignDirection,lncandDesignwestEngineeringlnc.Thiscaseisindiscovery at this time.
4. Temple Beth Am vs Del Amo construction. This case is in mediation at this time Summary:
1. Us Alliance Holden of Price lose l The project in question involved the development of a multi-family residence. The dispute arose when an inspector claimed that the distance between the outside air and exhaust discharge for each unit was insufficiently far apart. The project had undergone a city plan check and received approval based on its design, in which we had included an exception allowing for a shorter distance than the required 10'-O". However, unbeknownst to us, the city had adopted an ASHRAE fundamental stating that the distance must be 10"-O". The matter of city adoption was not brought up or discussed until the project was well underway in the construction phase. As a result, the damage incurred necessitated reframing a port'on of the building to comply with the required clearance. We suggested attempting to obtain an exception from the city, but the owner expressed reluctance due to potential project delays.
2. Pace San Ysidro I In this ongoing mediation case involving a clinic in San Ysidro, a pipe break during the night led to significant flooding. The plumber and the building owner's insurance company have sued us. Our defense asserts that the plumber failed to install the proper valve and neglected to include Water Hammer arrestors as specified in the drawings. The plumber also used incorrect piping size, resultingin two pipe breaks and subsequent flooding. Despite being aware of the water hammering issue, the plumber did not contact us for resolution but made unsuccessful attempts to fix it independently.
3. Winpak I Winpak is an industrial building at the center of a lawsuit located in the city of Rialto. The claim stems from Southern California Edison providing insufficient pOWer to the building, leading to delays in the tenant's occupancy. The project consisted of two phases: the core and shell, designed by a separate team, and the tenant improvement, which our office completed. During the simultaneous design of the core and shell and the tenant improvement, our office coordinated multiple times regarding the power requirements for the tenant improvement. The core and shell design and construction teams were responsible for installing all electrical room components and coordinating with Southern California Edison. Despite this, the tenant sued our firm, alleging that we failed to coordinate with Edison, although we feel this responsibility fell on core and shell team. Currently, the case is in mediation, awaiting a mediation date in September of 2023.
4. Temple Beth AM l This project involved an addition to an existing Temple that has led to a lawsuit due to air noise and comfort problems within the premises. The issues primarily stem from the improper balancing of the air conditioning system and the failure to internally insulate the ductwork as directed by our office.
Additionally, there are concerns related to the building's HVAC control system, which was not designed by our office. Currently, the case is in mediation. The building owneris in the process of engaging an HVAC contractor to address the system's balancing issues. Once the system is appropriately balanced, a reassessment will be conducted to evaluate the noise and comfort levels within the building.
CONSULTANT AGREEMENT
Design West does not have any exceptions, additions, and/or deletions to the City's RFP orStandard Agreement provided in Attachment A. We have an understanding of and will comply with the requirements of the RFP and any addenda.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA IBNLL
For the Regular Meeting of: November 14, 2023
Originating Department:
nepartmemnireaor: ';2ezwrs- A%wanager:
Darren Arakawa hris Je.ffers
SUBJECT: PURCHASE ORDER FOR RENEWAL OF MAINTENANCE AND
SUPPORT SERVICES SOFTWARE WITH PULSIAM FOR THE POLICE
DEPARTMENT
PURPOSE: To renew the existing agreement with Pulsiam for maintenance and support services which includes Computer Aided Dispatch ("CAD") and Records Management Systems ("RMS") for the Police Department. The South Gate Municipal Code requires that all agreements more than $50,000 be approved by the City Council; therefore, the purchase order agreement needs to go before the Council for renewal.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: The City Council will consider authorizing the issuance of a purchase order agreement with Pulsiam to renew the maintenance and support services software for Fiscal Year 2023/2024 for the Police Department in the amount of $119,320.33.
FISCALIMPACT: Funds for these services were included in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 Municipal Budget.
ANALYSIS: This purchase order is for the renewal of an existing sole source proprietary software agreement that does not require bidding and complies with City purchasing guidelines.
BACKGROUND: For the past 30 years, the Police Department has contracted with Pulsiam to provide 24-hour support for its CAD and RMS systems. The CAD and RMS systems are the foundation of information technology that enables the Police Department to receive 9-1-1 calls in the dispatch center and generate calls for service that are sent electronically to police officers in the field. The system is also an integrated database for the processing and storage of law enforcement information, including crime and arrest reports.
CAD and RMS are an integrated system designed specifically for law enforcement operations.
CAD is a real-time system, which automatically verifies addresses, tracks and manages incoming calls, prioritizes calls for service, and tracks on-duty personnel activity. RMS provides reporting and analytical capabilities for investigations and generates statistics for the Uniform Crime Report to the state and the federal governments. Mobile Data and e-Reporting modules allow officers to 1 133
access dispatch information in the field, provide access to our secure law enforcement network, and create crime and arrest reports.
Together, these modules create the core of our police department's information system, which is essential for the daily and efficient operation of the police department. Maintenance of this complex software system is necessary to keep up with modifications, technology issues, changes in existing laws, and other constantly evolving mandates to law enforcement.

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA BULL
For the Regular Meeting of: November 14, 2023
Originating Depaitment: City Manager's Office
SUBJECT: INVESTIGATION RELATING TO WATER CUSTOMER REPORTS OF
HIGH WATER CONSUMPTION BILLING QUESTIONS
PURPOSE: The City Council has requested a review of recent water customer concerns relating to utility billings received and possible reasons as to why August and September 2023 bills were higher for some customers.
RECOMMENDATION: The City Council will consider receiving and filing a report on the investigation done by staff relating to high water consumption billing questions and, if needed, give staff appropriate direction.
BACKGRO{JND: Since late August 2023, the City began to notice an uptick in customer inquiries about water charges on their utility bill. That was further confirmed as several residents over the last several City Council meetings also expressed disagreement with charges on their utility bill and asked for the City Council to investigate. In September and October 2023, residents contacted the Water Customer Service Division expressing similar complaints about the bills for the August, September and October billing cycles. That influx over the last couple of weeks has subsided. Staff has investigated numerous customer driven inquiries, and based on those exhaustive inquiries, has prepared this report and presentation on the water operations with particular emphasis on the water meter reading process which ultimately leads to utility bills generated for each customer.
Overview of how water gets from our wells to the customer.
The City has eight active wells that pump from the groundwater aquifer approximately 2.7 billion gallons annually, or 8,300 Acre Feet (AF). The water is directly pumped to the water distribution system or to six (6) reservoirs which hold and allow the Water Division to regulate the flow of water during low and high demand periods throughout the City service area. Approximately 90% of the City is served by our Water Division, with the remaining community sections served by private water companies. For those served by the City, the water travels through approximately 135 miles of underground pipes to the 14,300 customers served by us.
That water is delivered to each customer through a service line and water meter that have been 1 160
sized to meet their usage and register consumption. Since most of our customers are single family residents ("SFR"), their meters are very similar depending on when they were installed. Water meters are contained in a concrete meter box located in close proximity to the street curb. There are other locations where the meter box may be located but for about 90% of our SFR customers, it is in front of their home next to the street.
It is at this meter box where the responsibility for maintenance of water service lines ends for the City and begins for the customer. The water main line, the water service line from that main line, and the water meter remains the property and the responsibility of the City. The water service line leaving the meter into a customer's home or business, including all water lines in their home or on their property (sprinkler lines or pool) are the responsibility of the customer.
How does the City know how much a customer uses during any billir5;r cvde? The water meters are used to measure water usage for every billing cycle. Each meter has a set of dials which displays a series of numbers called the register. Figure 1 shows a typical register for a 3/4-inch water meter with the series of numbers. The far-right number on the white dials, in this case where the number five (5) shows, reflects a single hundred cubic feet ("HCF") used by the customer. The next number reflects each 10 HCF increments, and the dial progresses from there.
A single HCF represents 748 gallons. In Figure 1 the number reads 0845.91, which represents that almost 846 HCF of water or over 632,060 gallons have passed through the meter since it was installed. Water meters are read at the completion of every billing cycle. The usage for each cycle for which a customer is billed is calculated by taking the difference between the current meter read and the prior meter read number. For example, the usage for this water meter would be 10 HCF if the prior meter read was 0835.91. The customer would then be billed for 10 HCF.

*The bhte wheel is called a leak detection meter. It is used to determine if there is a leak on the property if all water is turned off. If the blue wheel moves, then it shows that water is still flowing on the property. 2 161
The meters are read monthly for evety water customer. Each day Water Meter Readers go out to read a portion of the City which includes both residential and commercial. The City's customers are divided into 8 read routes and two routes are read each day with approximately 1,000 customers within the two routes daily. Two full-time City employees with a combined 23 years of service accomplish the task. As a matter of historical practice, each employee within the Public Works Water Division is trained in how to read meters, whicli provides a substantial back-up process should the need arise due to vacations, illness, or training absences.
There are two processes for reading meters. Of the 14,300 meters, 2,334 are Automatic Meter Reading ("AMR") meters which allow the meter to be read from simply walking or driving by.
The data is transmitted automatically from the water meter to the handheld reading device via a transponder attached to the meter. For the remaining 11,966 meters, a Water Meter Reader must physically observe the register and then manually input the numbers into their handheld reading device. To read the dial, the Water Meter Reader must lift the lid of the box and then may need to spray the register dial face due to discoloration/dirt or even clear the meter box of accumulated debris. Our handheld devices have an alert setting that will beep if a number being inputted is 25% higher or lower than the previous consumption number billed for the customer. This alerts the Water Meter Reader to check the dial and the number being inputted again for accuracy. If verified, the Meter Reader Water then replaces the lid and moves on to the next meter box.
At the end of the day, the handheld devices are returned to their docking station where the device downloads the data collected from the day, is recharged, and the next day route information is uploaded onto the device. The data from the readings are transmitted to the Water Customer Service Division in the Administrative Services Department for billing purposes.
On the following business day after the reading data is uploaded to the billing system, it is retrieved by Customer Service Representatives ("CSRs") in the Water Customer Service Division; this is where the billing process begins. The CSR conducts a second review of the meter reads, which helps detect potential billing enors. One of the tools used during this process is the Edit Listing Report, better described as those meters exceeding the 25% usage variance. When a meter read has a 25% increase or decrease in consumption, the account will be included in this report. This prompts the CSR to send a service request back to the Water Meter Reader for a second or third read of that water meter. If a read is returned as being adjusted, then the CSR will make the necessary adjustments to the account to calculate an accurate bill for our customer. Once the meter reads are confirmed and finalized, the CSR can continue the billing process. Thereafter, the CSRs are also responsible for managing accounts receivable, creating, and tracking any additional customer service requests. Customers are encouraged to review their bills and inquire about the accuracy of their bill. The CSR can place a request for a meter to be reread. If it is determined that the bill went out in error, the CSR will request a billing adjustment to be applied to the customer's account.

Why can a customer's usa5ze varv from month to month? There are a variety of reasons consumption can change from month to month or year to year. Many of these reasons are often not very apparent to the user. First, it is important to understand that each water customer has a unique set of facts about their water usage and will veiy unlikely be like their neighbor or neighborhood. Factors such as:
1. Number of individuals living in the house. According to the Pacific Institute, as of September 2022, the average per capita usage in South Gate was 105 gallons per day. The number of people in a household whether peimanently or temporarily can increase or decrease a month over month water bill.
2. The number of billing days in a billing cycle varies from month to month due to the work schedule and billing calendar. Usually, December is the shortest billing period with an average of only 23 days. January is the longest billing period with the read averaging about 39 days. Thus, the month over month increase could potentially be as much as 40%.
3. Landscape watering can impact the billing. The impact can vary even more for urban versus suburban and rural areas. The Public Policy Instihite of California estimates, depending on where the customer lives (urban, suburban, or rural), their outdoor usage can account for up to 40% of their daily usage in the warmer months.
4. Whether a household has water efficient appliances ranging from showerheads, dishwashers, washing machines to toilets. For example, toilets manufactured prior to 1996, on average, use between 5 to 7 gallons per flush. Since about 2014, toilets have been manufactured to use about 1.6 gallons. Newer appliances have been manufactured to use up to 40% less water over the last 15 years.
5. The Institute of Agriculture & Natural Resources reports that warmer months have an impact on water usage. During the warm summer months and the growing season, water use tends to increase as we try to help meet the water demands of lawns, vegetable gardens, flowers,andtrees. However,ourwateruseinsidethehousecanalsotendtoincreaseduring the summer months; something we may not always realize. We may create more laundry, take more frequent showers, and teenagers may be home during the day instead of at school and using more water.
6. Whether a household has a pool. According to many studies cited by industry experts, water evaporation rates vary based on water temperature, air temperature, wind speed, wind volatility, sun exposure, and humidity levels. The average pool water evaporation rate is about a quarter of an inch of water per day or more than two inches in a week, which on a 33' x 18' swirnrning pool (an average pool size) is more than 2,500 liters or approximately 600 gallons a week; this may vary depending on your climate and the factors listed above.
7. Water so:tteners use water to operate. Water Softeners nortnally have a reserve capacity of 20 to 25% before it regenerates; this means that it regenerates when the resin beads are 75 to 80% sahirated. During recharge (regeneration), it uses approximately 35 to 65 gallons of water. Depending on the size of the water softener and the amount of water being used within the home, the consumption can occur daily or weekly.
8. How we use water. This is likely one of the most varying impacts on the water consumption. For example, how long one uses a shower can have an impact. For each minute a typical shower is on, it uses about 2.5 gallons per minute for the typical shower 4 163
head and 2.0 for a water efficient device. The average shower according to industry publications is about eight minutes, which includes the time often used warming up the water. That means each shower will use between 16 to 20 gallons. If you wash dishes by hand, the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) says washing dishes by hand can use up to 27 gallons versus an Energy Star Dishwasher using about 3 gallons per load.
9. Leaks in water lines or devices is another water consumption challenge. According to the USEPA between 10 to 12% of a household consumption on average is from leaks. A leaking faucet can use up to one gallon per day; a toilet can use up to 8 gallons per hour; a showerhead can use up to 1.5 gallons per day; and irrigation systems depending on whether a bubbling sprinkler head to a hole in a line can be from 10 to 200 gallons per day.
Overall, Figure 2 shows how the typical household water consumption is allocated.

Again, the amount of what one customer uses can vaiy significantly from another customer and even what they may have used themselves from month-to-month. In some cases, Climate Change will also impact some of the usage patterns such as landscape and pool usage in the coming years.
Why are so many customers questioning their water bills? Ultimately, this is the question posed by the City Council in their directive to investigate. One area we noticed changes in was the amount of rereads from the Edit Listing Report that needed to be sent back to the Public Works Water Division. This report usually generates about 500 monthly rereads that are sent back to the Water Division, representing about 3.5% of the meters being reread. In August, September, and October the combined rereads totaled 3,779. In Figure 3, the monthly rereads are separated into three categories:
5 164
1. Billing Adjustments - these accounts were sent out for a reread and the outcome resulted in an adjustment to the customer's account.
2. Other Adjustments - these accounts received a billing adjustment if a tenant or new owner delayed setting up a new water account. Staff will separate any fees that should not be charged to the new occupant.
3. Rereads - as mentioned these are rereads based on the accounts that appear in the Edit Listing Repoit. It is important to note these rereads happen weeks before the customer's bill is mailed.

For November, the current billing period, staff has requested 248 rereads and posted one billing adjustment. With almost 45% of the meters read, it does appear that the overall volume of rereads is declining and retutning to a normal range. It is important to note only 3 billing adjustments came from our AMR devices during this review period. Based on the data collected from rereads, the customer's account may have been adjusted accordingly or the reread showed to have an accurate ending usage for the billed period.
In response to the City Council directive, over the last 8 weeks, staff has worked with customers who have called, emailed, posted to social media, and appeared in City Council Meetings to review their water consumption and take the necessary steps to obtain an understanding and resolving their concerns.
6 165
Why the increase in rereads and billinz adiustments?
There are multiple reasons for this increase. Starting with one of the more common reasons being human error. The meter read collected may have been unclear due to severe discoloration of the register dial cover or debris on the meter box which may have prevented a clear reading. While not intentional, the Water Meter Reader has forced a number into the device.
Another reason is the meter itself may be malfunctioning. According to the American Water Works Association (AWWA), meters are to have a 98.5 to 101.5 accurate read. Anything outside those thresholds is considered a faulty meter. The only way to determine such is for Public Works to pull the meter and send it to a third-party testing lab. Usually, a faulty meter fails to meet the
98.5 threshold due to worn parts or sediment that has dislodged and impacted the spinner. This means an under read has occurred and thus to the benefit of the customer. The new meter installed as a result of the meter being pulled for testing will pick up the more accurate customer usage read.
As a result of this investigation, we have found some technological issues. The first is that the City upgraded its handheld reading devices and software at the beginning of the calendar year (2023). The devices were set to "Supervisor" mode rather than "Operator" mode. Whether this impacted the reads is impossible to determine with confidence. All such devices have now been set to the proper Operator mode for inputting in the field.
We have also realized that when the City replaced and upgraded the meter data collection software a year ago, we did not do an adequate job of passing along the capabilities of the new Itron system to staff in terms of reporting and tracking. For example, it provides the ability to document a reread with photos which can be provided to staff handling water billing and to the customer, if requested.
In addition, the control settings on the Edit Listing Report in the Eden financial software for usage variance may have been set in conflict with recommended industry standards which could have led to some water consumption alerts not being communicated by the handheld device in the field and being left off the Edit Listing Report. The issue is being tested in the field after resetting the alert limit thresholds within the Eden system.
Finally, there may be an increased level of customer anxiety due to the timing with the City reimposing shutoffs due to nonpayment of bills. During the COVID pandemic, the City Council directed that water service not be shut off for nonpayment as too many households were being financially impacted due to layoffs. Due to the closure of businesses and schools, more people were home for much longer periods which would cause water usage to rise significantly. In addition, the state implemented a new shutoff process in response to the COVID pandemic which prohibits the shutoff of any customer for nonpayment until the account is at least 60 days past due.
This state regulation requires us to issue a past due statement and a past due letter being sent to the customer mailing address. Also, the staff delivers weekly door hangers that are placed on the customer's door in keeping with the directive by the City Council of being proactive in helping 7 166
customers manage their utility bill payments. In July, the notices of potential shutoffs began to be delivered which generated new and likely more focused attention by many customers to their bills.
In fact, we issued 1,171 door hangers between September and October billings.
Unfortunately, we may never be able to fully conclude the reasons why the topic has garnered the attention of many of our customers for these billing periods or even know if trends started prior to the August billing cycle. That is not to imply we are dismissive of the concerns or facts where human error may have been involved in a misread in some cases or inputting of data into various software platforms (Itron and Eden). The fact remains that customers are paying attention to their utility bills. As the City Council has expressed on many occasions, customer service is critical to the organization. Resident and business customers need to be treated professionally and in the same manner we would expect to be treated if we were on the other side of the counter.
Although staff feels we have addressed the majority of misreads and billing adjustments, we still encourage residents to reach out to the Water Customer Service Division. We have staff on hand this evening to provide an individual review of your water bill to confirnn if your account may have been inadvertently impacted.
What are the customer concerns and what have we discovered? The concerns can generally be summarized as how could a bill increase from one month over another more than what the customer believes they used and/or the ability to pay the bill. It may be easier to address the latter concern first.
Ability to pay - The City Council has had a long record of recognizing that water is a critical resource for our community. Consequently, the policy has been to consider all matters and to work with the customer to avoid a shutoff from occurring, if possible. That is certainly evident during the COVID pandemic where we issued no shut off actions. We have traditionally offered a payment plan to pay off past dues while keeping the customer current with bills. At the present time, we have 1,750 customers on such a plan and covering bills incurred as far back as 2019. We will continue to offer this opportunity to residents and businesses alike.
Additionally, this past January, the City Council appropriated $500,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to assist those with past due water bills impacted by COVID. We continue to apply and offer that program to our eligible customers up to a maximum of $500 per customer and qualifying is not based on financial ability to pay levels. To date, we have assisted 279 customers through this program.
Also, we applied for a grant from the State Water Resources Control Board for approximately $500,000 to be applied to customers with greater than 60-days past due accounts between March 2020 and June 2021. We were able to assist 436 customers by crediting over $477,000 in past due bills and the criteria was not based on financial ability to pay.
Recently, we have been assisting customers with another state program that is set to expire in March 2024. The program is locally administered by a community-based group, Long Beach CommunityAction("LBCA"). Theprogramprovidesupto$l5,000percustomerforwaterand sewer bills. The customer can qualify based on income levels that are already established by the 8 167
federal government. We have been in contact with LBCA to arrange for them to be at City Hall to help customers with the application process and provide same day approval. This will take place on November 16, 2023, from 8:00 am to 2:00 pm. We expect a large turnout.
Finally, we will continue to look for funding opportunities that may assist our water customers with utility bills. We realize that too many of our residents struggle financially and the City Council's directive to assist where possible while ensuring the fiscal sustainability of the Water Enterprise Fund is pait of our customer service policy. This policy is one of the reasons why the water rates of $5.98 per HCF has not changed for residents since 2013.
What have we discovered - Earlier in this report we discussed how a customer uses water in the home is o:[ten not always realized at the moment. Improving that awareness can be done through enhanced education on the website, alerts in the bill, providing opportunities to showcase best practices at several City events by our Water Division can go a long way in helping.
We have also stated in this report several previously unknown weaknesses existed in our operational processes, whether in the field or at our customer billing service counter. That has included that human error was involved in some cases whether through improper training or forcing input numbers into the handheld devices when the register dial could not be properly viewed. We also know now we have not taken full advantage of the complete abilities of the software used or that we have not kept pace with updates and practices that are common with software. Finally, that there is a need to establish, in writing, various protocols to ensure staff is aware of how to address matters, handle the processes in the field or at the customer billing counter, and, most importantly, improving communication between the field and customer billing counter.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
During this exhaustive investigation and interaction with our customers, several elements have been identified and are presented for City Council consideration:
1. Most importantly, customer service. This is always an important element for any organization to be constantly working on. Our goal should always be to emulate how we ourselves would wish to be treated and respected. It is important that we frequently remind ourselves that every contact will be seen as the face of the organization and how our customers will be le:[t with its impression. Customer service can only be improved through better communication. We have begun adopting the theme of "See something, Say something." This is simply because we all have an obligation to alert the right people when we see or hear something that is out of place or extraordinary. In this case, when our CSRs begin to see the volume of rereads increase on the Edit Listing Report, they will alert their supervisor. This will allow us to investigate trends sooner.
Customer service also goes to making sure our customers feel like they can approach City Hall and be heard. In recent weeks, we have added training such as de-escalation interaction and will be looking for additional training programs for persoru'iel interacting with the public on a regular basis. The standard is treating others as you would have them treat you. Even when that customer may be aggressive in their words and/or tone, it is our 9 168
obligation to remain respectful and listen to their story; this is a very simple and to the point expectatxon.
2. We propose increasing our public education of water programs. This education includes a more comprehensive effort in posting infomiation on the website and social media platforms with topics on how to read your meter, how can you identify possible leaks, and reminding customers of warming weather impacts on usage. A frequently asked questions and answer sheet will also be developed, as well as, actively promoting (323) 563-9586 as a number to call about bills or email at customerhelp(2Dsogate.org..
Through education, we have the ability to remind customers of the very generous programs that may be able to assist them in paying or staying current with utility bills. This has begun by our effort in bringing the LBCA into City Hall on November 15th to assist residents in determining if they qualify for assistance by the State of California and if so, approving them for the program that same day. We also need to promote continued access to the ARPA funds the City Council has previously allocated to assist with water bills impacted by COVID.
3. Protocols need to be developed. One element that clearly has become evident is procedures have not been written down and new employees have not been trained on the systems as completely as they should be. This can be something as simple as alerting supervisors when the meter covers have become too discolored to be read clearly. While a meter replacement can cost approximately $150, if the dials cannot be read reliably, then it is time to replace the meter.
In addition, the upgrade of the handheld devices has occurred, and we did not thoroughly ask questions from the manufacturer to be sure we were fully trained on mode settings and their capability. This same aspect of technology is to make sure we stay current on practices and upgrades that the manufacturer provides on their software. We have found that we are not using the latest upgrade from Itron of their software.
We have already begun to use the photo capture program when a reread occurs. This will allow the Water Customer Service Representatives and/or customers to view the picture to make sure it matches up with the reread number provided.
4. Consider establishing an incentive program that can help residents upgrade to more water efficient devices. Metropolitan Water District and other organizations offered such incentives during previous drought periods to help customers lower water consumption.
Replacing items like toilets, showerheads, dishwashers and washing machines could potentially help a resident save thousands of dollars each year.
5. Consider a program of meter replacements and upgrades where the data is transmitted via the internet and allows customers to view their data in real time. Many purveyors have or are installing such water meters which use technology, software, and antenna systems that 10 169
the City does not currently have. While such upgraded meters can themselves have misreads due to the device antenna becoming compromised, they reduce human interaction and thus the possibility of inputting wrong data. More importantly, it begins to enhance transparency between the City and customer and helps customers track usage in real time.
The customer can set up aleits and get reports on their usage that allow them to be even better stewards of this precious resource.
In the meantime, we are stepping up our replacement of meters where the register dial cannot be clearly seen by the Water Meter Reader. We don't have a complete account of how many of these, but we have already purchased about 150 AMR meters with the intent of placing them into service this current fiscal year. An AMR meter costs about $275 a piece.
6. Workload balance. Public Works is also investigating whether the workload balance for Water Meter Readers and daily reads is consistent with industry best practices for manual reading. For the last two decades, two positions have been used to read approximately 500 meters a piece. While the number of meters has remained fairly constant at 14,300 over that time period, it is a fair question to explore and, if needed, have a discussion during the upcoming budget process for Fiscal Year 2024-25.
7. Clear debris near meters. Finally, we have begun to replace or dig out meter boxes that may be full of debris. The Water Division will likely be engaging a third party to assist with this function. Our goal is to eliminate possibilities that may be interfering with a Water Meter Reader's ability to observe and record a register dial reading easily and efficiently.
