Arturo Cervantes for Rob Houstori
SUBJECT: AGfflEMENT WITH GENERAL PUMP COMPANY, INC., FOR ON-CALL
MAINTENANCE SERVICES FOR THE MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEM PURPOSF,: To award an on-call maintenance services agreement to General Pump Company, Inc, to provide specialized emergency well maintenance and repair services for the City's municipal water system on an as-needed basis using competitively bid unit prices.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: The City Council will consider:
a. Approving an Agreement with General Pump Company, Inc., to perform well maintenance services on an as-needed basis ("Agreement"), for a three-year term with two optional one- year extensions, in an annual amount not to exceed $100,000 for a total of $300,00o for the initial three-year term; and
b. Authorizing the Mayor to execute the Agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney,
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no impact to 'the General Fund. The Agreement has a total not-to-exceed amount of $300,000 over the initial three-year term. The Agreement will be funded by the Water Fund, with $100,000 budgeted annually in the Public Works Operating Budget, subject to annual budget appropriations,
ANALYSIS: The City owns and operates a municipal water system that includes eight active groundwater wells used to supply drinking water to the community. These wells contain complex mechanical and electrical equipment, including motors, pumps, electrical control panels, and associated piping, all of which require periodic maintenance and occasional emergency tepairs. When critical components fail, repairs must often be completed on an expedited basis to maintain reliable water production and avoid potential interiuptions in water service.
While City staff perform routine maintenance whenever practical, certain repairs require specialized equipment, technical expertise, and certified maintenance contractors, For these situations, the Public Works Department maintains the ability to quickly secure the services of a qualified specialty contractor to perform emergency repairs and specialized maintenance.
Staff is recomrnend'ing awarding an on-call maintenance services agreement to General Pump Company, Inc. to provide these specialized services on an as-needed basis. The Agreement establishes competitively bid init prices and enables the City to respond quickly to emergency well failures without the delays associated with procuring a separate contract for each repair, This approach helps 1 113
maintain the reliability of the City's water system, minimizes downtime, and ensures the continued delivery of safe and dependable drinking water to the community.
BACKGROUND: The City owns and operates a municipal water system that provides drinking water service to more than 14,250 water service accounts, serving approximately 90 percent of the City's residents and businesses. The municipal water system consists of more than 135 miles of water mains, eight active groundwater wells, four reservoir sites, and multiple booster pump stations that work together to provide a safe, reliable, and unintermpted water supply throughout the community.
The City's groundwater wells extract water from underground aquifers and serve as the primary source of the City's drinking water. Each is well equipped with specialized mechanical and electrical equipment, including pumps, motors, electrical control panels, well casings, and associated piping.
Like all mechanical infrastructure, these components are subject to normal wear, deterioration, and unexpected failures that require routine maintenance and, at times, emergency repairs to help maintain continuous water production. While City staff perform routine maintenance whenever practical, certain repairs require specialized equipment, technical expertise, and certified maintenance contractors. These services include pump removal and installation, motor replacement, electrical control repairs, well casing inspections, well cleaning and rehabilitation, flow testing, and other specialized maintenance activities that caru'iot be efficiently or safely performed by City personnel.
To ensure these specialized services are readily available when needed, the City publicly advertised a Notice Inviting Bids on June 4, 2026, through PlanetBids and in a newspaper of general circulation.
On July 1, 2026, the City received two responsive bids from General Pump Company, Inc. and Bakersfield Well & Pump Company, which were publicly opened by the City Clerk.
Staff conducted a comprehensive evaluation by comparing the submitted unit prices for all anticipated work items. General Pump submitted the lowest overall pricing, with an evaluated total of approximately $37,367, compared to $108,301 submitted by Bakersfield Well & Pump Company, representing an overall cost savings of approximately 65.5 percent. The greatest savings were associated with the work items most frequently utilized during emergency well maintenance and rehabilitation projects, including mobilization, pump removal and installation, discharge compliance, and well redevelopment services. Based on the bid evaluation, staff determined that General Pump Company, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid and provides the best overall value to the City.
General Pump Company, Inc. has successfully provided well maintenance services to the City of South Gate since 2009, consistently delivering quality workmanship, timely emergency response, and dependable service. Based on this proven performance, the firm has established a strong track record of supporting the City's municipal water system. Headquartered in San Dimas, California, General Pump Company, Inc. has specialized in municipal well maintenance services since 1952 and employs more than 50 personnel. In addition to South Gate, the company currently provides similar services to numerous public agencies throughout Southern California, including the Cities of Ontario, Santa Monica, Lynwood, Compton, Chino, and Redlands.
Based on the firm's qualifications, competitive pricing, and demonstrated performance, staff recommends awarding the Agreement to General Pump Company, Inc. 2 114

Purpose
The purpose of this program is to ensure the safety of all employees and contractors working for General Pump Company, Inc. and to comply with all regulations and host clients that pertain to confined spaces.
Scope
This program covers all employees and other workers that may be involved in confined space entry. When work is performed on a non-owned or operated site, the operator's program shall take precedence. This document covers General Pump Company, Inc. employees and contractors and shall be used on owned premises, or when an operator's program doesn't exist or is less stringent.
Definitions
Attendant - an individual stationed outside one or more Confined spaces who monitors the authorized Entrants and who performs all Attendant's duties assigned in the General Pump Company, Inc. Confined Spaces Program.
Attendants must have sufficiently completed and fully understands the Confined Space training and is approved by the HSE Manager to work in a confined space as an Attendant.
Authorized Entrant - an individual who is authorized by General Pump Company, Inc. to enter a confined space.
Entrants must have sufficiently completed and fully understands the Confined Space training and is approved by the HSE Manager to work in a confined space as an Authorized Entrant.
Confined Space
A space that is large enough and so configured that an employee can bodily enter and perform assigned work;
Has limited or restricted means for entry or exit (for example, tanks, vessels, coolers, storage bins, hoppers, vaults, and pits are spaces that may have limited means of entry); a nd Is not designed for continuous occupancy.
Confined Space Entry Permit - A confined space entry permit must be completed before entering a confined space.
An entry permit is the written or printed document that controls entry into a confined space. Before entry is authorized, an entry permit documenting control measures to protect workers from the hazards in the confined space must be prepared. Procedures necessary for concluding the entry after entry operations have been completed must be in place. When workers from multiple employers are working in a permit space, procedures must be implemented to ensure workers from one employer do not endanger workers of another.
Entry - the action by which a person passes through an opening into a confined space. Entry includes ensuing work activities in that space and is considered to have occurred as soon as any part of the Entrant's body breaks the plane of an opening into the space.
Entry Supervisor - the person responsible for determining if acceptable entry conditions are present at a confined space where entry is planned, for authorizing entry and overseeing entry operations, and for terminating entry as required by this section.

Entry Supervisors must have sufficiently completed and fully understands the Confined Space training and is approved by the HSE Manager to work in a confined space.
An Entry Supervisor also may serve as an Attendant or as an authorized Entrant, as long as that person is trained and equipped as required by this section for each role he or she fills. Also, the duties of Entry Supervisor may be passed from one individual to another during the course of an entry operation.
The Entry Supervisor is responsible to test and monitor the atmosphere conditions.
Hazardous atmosphere - an atmosphere that may
impairment of ability to self-rescue (that is, escape one or more of the following causes:
expose employees to the risk of death, incapacitation, and unaided from a confined space), irJury, or acute illness from Flammable gas, vapor, or mist in excess of 10 percent of its lower flammable limit (LFL), (0% is normal).
Atmospheric oxygen concentration below 19.5 percent or above 23.5 percent, (20.9 % is normal).
Any other atmospheric condition that is immediately dangerous to life or health. (Ex.-H2S 10%, 0% is normal).
Note: For air contaminants for which OSHA has not determined a dose or permissible exposure limit, other sources of information, such as Safety Data Sheets that comply with the Hazard Communication Standard, published information, and internal documents can provide guidance in establishing acceptable atmospheric conditions.
Immediately dangerous to life or health (I[)LH) - any condition that poses an immediate or delayed threat to life or that would cause irreversible adverse health effects or that would interfere with an individual's ability to escape unaided from a confined space.
Note: Some materials-hydrogen fluoride gas and cadmium vapor, for example-may produce immediate transient effects that, even if severe, may pass without medical attention, but are followed by sudden, possibly fatal collapse 12-72 hours after exposure. The victim "feels normal" from recovery from transient effects until collapse. Such materials in hazardous quantities are considered to be "immediately dangerous to life or health".
Inerting - the displacement of the atmosphere in a permit space by a non-combustible gas (such as nitrogen) to such an extent that the resulting atmosphere is non-combustible. This procedure produces an IDLH oxygen deficient atmosphere.
Non-Permit Confined Space - A confined space that does not contain or, with respect to atmospheric hazards, have the potential to contain any hazard capable of causing death or serious physical harm.
Oxygen deficient atmosphere - an atmosphere containing less than 19.5 percent oxygen by volume.
Oxygen enriched atmosphere - an atmosphere containing more than 23.5 percent oxygen by volume.
Permit-Required Confined Space - a confined space that has one or more of the following characteristics:
Contains or has a potential to contain a hazardous atmosphere.
Contains a material that has the potential for engulfing an Entrant. .incont-olltid :ooy ii oamted

The air supply for the forced air ventilation shall be from a clean source and may not increase the hazards in the space.
The atmosphere within the space shall be periodically tested as necessary to ensure that the continuous forced air ventilation is preventing the accumulation of a hazardous atmosphere. Any employee, who enters the space, or that employee's authorized representative, shall be provided with an opportunity to observe the periodic testing and may request additional monitoring at any time.
Multiple Employer Procedure
In order not to endanger the employees of any other employer, the Entry Supervisor shall:
Verify that all contractor employees have been trained in confined space and that all contractor employees fully understand the General Pump Company, Inc. procedures pertaining to Confined Space.
Inform the contractor that the workplace contains permit spaces and that permit space entry is allowed only through compliance with a permit space program meeting the requirements of this section.
Apprise the contractor of the elements, including the hazards identified and the employees experience with the space, that make the space in question a permit space.
Inform the contractor of any precautions or procedures that General Pump Company, Inc. has implemented for the protection of employees in or near permit spaces where contractor personnel will be working.
Coordinate entry operations with the contractor, when both General Pump Company, Inc. personnel and contractor personnel will be workin(; in or near confined spaces.
Rescue and Emergency Services
Means of Communication Used to Summon Rescue
Procedures for summoning rescue and emergency services must be developed and implemented to perform rescue, to provide necessary emergency services to rescued employees, and to prevent unauthorized personnel from attempting a rescue. Communications used include radios and telephone based on the location.
Below are our procedures.
(B;3H1
Rescue personnel are readily available to respond to a confined space emergency. Personnel and services necessary to perform rescue must be identified and in place prior to entry. These services may be provided by the site owner/operator, the company performing the confined space work, or by a third party that specializes in confined space rescue. Local fire departments may not have the means to perform confined space rescue, so do not assume they are able to do so.
Permit-Required Confined Space Rescue:
When the Attendant becomes aWare or the need for reSCue, th e Attendant shall immediately summon the onsite rescue team by the agreed upon communication method, verbally, radio or cell phone, without leaving the vicinity of the confined space.
The Attendant shall prevent unauthorized personnel from attempting a rescue.
After the rescue team has been notified, the Attendant shall alert the Entry Supervisor of the emergency via the same communication methods.

The preferred means of providing rescue service is through the use of a qualified outside rescue service vendor (client host). The outside rescue service vendor must be:
o Informed of the hazards that they may confront during a rescue; o Provided access to the Permit-Required Confined Space to examine the entry site, practice rescue, and decline as appropriate.
o Access to the space allows the rescue service and local supervision to jointly develop appropriate rescue plans.
o If the host operator is designated to provide rescue services for General Pump Company, Inc., the agreement of services must be included in contract for the job.
If General Pump Company, Inc. employees are to perform Permit-Required Confined Space rescues, they must be:
o Provided and trained in the use of the proper personal protective equipment necessary to make the rescue;
o Provided PPE at no cost
o Trained to perform the assigned duties;
o Required to practice making rescues at least once every 12 months; o Trained in basic first aid and CPR.
o A minimum of one member of the rescue team must hold a current ce rtification in first aid and CPR.
Non-entry Rescue
To facilitate non-entry rescue, an Entrant must be attached to a retrieval system whenever he/she enters a Permit-Required Confined Space with a vertical depth of more than 5 feet.
The retrieval equipment is not required if it will increase the overall risk of the entry, e.g., creating an entanglement hazard, or will not contribute to the rescue of the Entrant.
Each Entrant shall use a full body harness equipped with a "D" ring located between the shoulders or above the head.
Wristlets may be used instead of the full body harness, if the use of the full body harness is not feasible or creates a greater hazard and that using wristlets is the safest and most effective alternative.
The retrieval line must be attached to the "D" ring and the other end of the retrieval line attached to a retrieval device or fixed point located outside the space so that rescue can begin as soon as the rescuer becomes aware that rescue is necessary.
Issuance/Reviewing of Permit
Only when all pre-entry requirements are satisfied, the Entry Supervisor shall issue a completed and signed confined space permit. The confined space permit is valid for one shift.
An annual review of this program, using the cancelled permits retained within 1 year after each entry shall be conducted by the HSE Manager to revise the program as necessary, to ensure that employees are protected. If no confined space entries were performed during a 12-month period, no review is necessary.

The Entry Supervisor shall terminate the confined space permit, at the end of the job operation, at the e nd of the shift or when the Entry Supervisor or Attendant determine that when new hazards are introduced or conditions in or near the confined space have changed and is hazardous to the Entrants.
The Entry Supervisor shall, at the conclusion of entry operation, close out the permit and provide the safety department the original copy of the Confined Space Permit.
Training
Employees are provided confined space training.
Each affected employee must be trained prior to initial assignment, prior to a change in assigned duties, if a new hazard has been created or special deviations have occurred. Before beginning work at a worksite, General Pump Company, Inc. must ensure that a competent person identifies all confined spaces in which one or more of their employees may work, and identifies each space that is a permit space, through consideration and evaluation of the elements of that space, including testing as necessary.
Training records must be documented and made available to employees and their authorized representative(s).
The employee shall be retrained:
Whenever there is a change in confined space operations that presents a hazard about which an employee has not previously been trained.
Whenever the supervisor has reason to believe either that there are deviations from the permit space entry procedures required by this section or thatthere are inadequacies in the employee's knowledge or use ofthese procedures.
The training shall establish employee proficiency in the duties required by this program and shall introduce new or revised procedures, as necessary.
The supervisor shall certify that the training required by this program has been accomplished.
The certification shall contain each employee's name, the signatures or initials of the trainers, and the dates of training.
The certification shall be available for inspection by employees, their authorized representatives, management, clients and the safety department.

SUBJF,CT: ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION RELEASING THE CITY'S SUBORDINATE DEED OF TRUST LIEN ENCUMBERING REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2713 MADRID PLACE
PURPOSE: To approve and authorize execution of a Substitution of Trustee and Deed of Full Reconveyance releasing the City's subordinate deed of trust lien encumbering the real property at 2713 Madrid Place, upon the City's receipt of the $145,000 payoff owed under a shared appreciation loan.
REiCOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt the attached Resolution:
a. Approving the Substitution of Trustee and Deed of Full Reconveyance in favor of Ramon Nandino, or the person(s) legally entitled thereto, releasing the City's subordinate deed of trust lieu recorded December 17, 1998, as Instrument No. 98-2288319 in the Official Records of Los Angeles County;
b. Authorizing the Mayor to execute the reconveyance; and directing that the executed and notarized instrument be recorded or released only after the City has received the payoff amount of $145,000 owed under the Nandino shared appreciation loan, in a form approved by the City Attorney.
FISCAL IMPACT: Adoption of the Resolution will result in the City's receipt of $145,000 in payoff proceeds under the shared appreciation loan, consisting of the return of the City's $40,000 original principal plus the City's 22% share of the property's appreciation in the amount of $105,600. These funds are attributable to a loan originally made from the former Redevelopment Agency's Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund,
BACKGROUND: On December 10, 1998, the Redevelopment Agency of the City of South Gate (the "Agency") made a loan of $40,000 to Ramon Nandino to assist his purchase of the single- familyresidencelocatedat2713MadridP1ace,SouthGate,California90280(the"Property"), The loan was made ftom the Agency's Low- and Moderate-Income Housing Fund as part of its first- time homebuyer Homeownetship Assistance Prog, Rather than a traditional mortgage, the loan l
193
was a "shared appreciation loan" authorized by California Civil Code § 1917.006, the terms of which were set forth in a Shared Appreciation Promissory Note dated December 10, 1998. Under the Note, the $40,000 principal represented 22% of the Property's then-fair market value of $179,500, and upon any sale or transfer of the Property the City is entitled to receive (a) return of the $40,000 principal and (b) 22% of the "Proceeds of Sale." The Note is secured by a Subordinate Deed of Trust executed by Mr. Nandino, naming Comprehensive Housing Services, Inc. as Trustee and the Agency as beneficiary, recorded on December 17, 1998, as Instrument No. 98-2288319 in the Official Records of Los Angeles County. The City of South Gate is the Agency's successor in interest and current beneficiary under the Deed of Trust.
The City's lien was originally subordinate to a first deed of trust securing a $130,525 traditional mortgage loan made to Mr. Nandino by Sanwa Bank, recorded immediately prior to the City's Deed of Trust. The Sanwa Bank loan was fully repaid, and its lien was released by reconveyance in 2017, leaving the City in first-priority position.
Mr. Nandino's Property is the subject of a marital dissolution proceeding between Petitioner Ana Dolores Nandino and Respondent Ramon Nandino, in which the City of South Gate has appeared as Claimant/Intervenor. Because the Property is being transferred by judicial decree rather than in an arms- length sale, the Note requires the fair market value to be established by a qualified appraisal. An April 10, 2026 appraisal established a fair market value of $700,000. The parties have stipulated to the $700,000 fair market value and that, should the community residence be awarded to Petitioner, Petitioner will pay the City $145,000.
ANALYSIS: Applying the Note's formula, the amount payable to the City is calculated as follows: the appraised value of $700,000, less the original value of $179,500, yields appreciation of $520,500; less the City's original $40,000 principal yields "Proceeds of Sale" of $480,000; 22% of which is $105,600, for a total payable to the City of $145,000 (return of the $40,000 principal plus the $105,600 appreciation share).
To release the City's lien upon payment, the City Attorney has prepared a Substitution of Trustee and Deed of Full Reconveyance under which the City substitutes itself as Trustee in place of Comprehensive Housing Services, Inc. pursuant to Section 24 of the Deed of Trust, and, as substituted Trustee, reconveys the Property without warranty to the person(s) legally entitled thereto. So that the City's security is not released before it is paid, the executed and notarized instrument is to be delivered to escrow (with instructions not to record or release it until the loan proceeds are deliverable to the City) or, if payment is not handled through escrow, held by the City Attorney and recorded only after the City receives the fund. 2 194
CONCLUSION: Staff recommends adoption of the attached Resolution approving the Substitution of Trustee and Deed of Full Reconveyance and authorizing its execution and delivery upon the conditions described above, so that the City's subordinate deed of 'hst lien is released only after the City has received the $145,000 payoff owed under the Nandino shared appreciation loan.

Originating Department:
Manuel Atmna
for Rob HoustoriManuel Arana
SUBJECT: TO ACCEPT A PRIVATE DONATION AND RATIFY THE PURCHASE AND TRAIINING OF A POLICE CANINE (K9).
PURPOSE: To authorize the acceptance of a $20,000 private donation from Mr. Ronald Loynds to assist with the purchase and training of a Police Service Cariine (K9) for the South Gate Police Department, to ratify the purchase and training alreaay initiated with Gold Coast K9 Servicesi LLCI, and to amend the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budget accordingly RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: The City Council will consider:
a. Accepting and ratifying receipt of a private donation in the amount of $20,000 from Mr, RonaId Loynds for the purchase and training of a K9 and recognizing the donation as revenue in the Fiscal Year 2026-27 Budget;
b. Amending the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Budget by appropriating $20,000 for the purchase and training of a K9 (100-502-21-9005 ($8,500) and 100-502-21-6340 ($f 1,500)), funded by the $20,000 in donation revenue; and
c. Ratifyirig the purchase and training of the Police Service Canine from Gold Coast K9 Services, LLC in the total amount of $20,871,25, as reflected in Invoice No. SGPD-38 (Attachment A),
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to the City's General Fund from the acquisition of the canine. The total cost for the purchase of the Police Service Canine is $8,500 (IOO-502-21- 9005) and the cost of initial ti'aining is $11,500 (100-502-21-6340), plus $871,25 for taxes (235- 570-21-6340), for a total project cost of $20,871.25. The $20,000 donation from Mr. Ronald Loynds will offset aportion ofthese costs. The remaining balance ($871.25) is budgeted in the FY 2026-27 Police Departtnent budget and funded through the Police Department's Asset Forfeiture Fund, The use of Asset Forfeiture Funds for canine acquisition is a permissible law enforcement expenditure under applicable state and federal asset forfeitute guidelines, and these funds supplement, rather than supplant, existing appropriations. Ongoing program costs, including veterinary care, food, equipment, and handler canine-care compensation required under the Fair Labor Standards Act, will continue to be absorbed within the K9 Program's existing operatirig budget, as the new canine replaces medically retired K9 Chavo on a one-for-one basis, ANALYSIS: The South Gate Police Depattnent has maintained a successful Police Canine 227
Program that enhances officer safety, assists in apprehending suspects, locates missing persons, and supports narcotics enforcement operations. The Department has previously received generous donations from Mr. Ronald Loynds that have funded the purchase and training of Police Service Canines currently assigned to the Department.
Mr. Loynds has once again demonstrated his commitment to public safety by donating $20,000 toward the purchase and training of a replacement patrol K9. Acceptance of this donation will enable the Department to continue maintaining a fully operational K9 Program without placing an additional burden on the City's General Fund.
BACKGROUND: The South Gate Police Department's K9 Program currently consists of two Patrol Service Canines and one Narcotics Detection Canine. These K9s were acquired through the generosity of Mr. Ronald Loynds, whose continued support has been instrumental in the success of the program.
Approximately two months ago, K9 Chavo was medically retired due to health complications, creating the need to replace one of the Department's patrol service dogs.
To ensure continuity of the K9 Program, Mr. Loynds generously donated $20,000 for the purchase and training of a replacement Police Service Canine. The Department has initiated the purchase of the new K9 from Gold Coast K9 Services, and the canine is currently undergoing handler training with Officer Ocampo. Due to the operational need to restore patrol canine coverage and the vendor's scheduled handler school, the purchase was initiated in advance of Council action; the recommended actions, therefore, include ratification of the purchase. Gold Coast K9 Services LLC supplied and trained the Department's existing canines, and continuity of vendor, canine evaluation, and training methodology supports this selection consistent with the City's purchasing procedures. The donated funds have been received and deposited by the City. The team is expected to successfully complete certification and become operational on or about August 14, 2026.
The Police Department respectfully requests that the City Council accept this generous donation, ratify the purchase, and appropriate the funds to support the acquisition and training of the new Police Service Canine.

He would not be impacted by this nor stand to gain financially. 234

Having no one else come forward, Mayor Barron closed the audience portxon.
Council MemberAvalos asked for clarification from the City Attorney because she resides on Glenwood Place and the pipeline passes through Southern Avenue.
City Attorney Salinas stated that there is an exception under the FPPC known as the "public generally" exception, which applies when a Council Member and the general public are affected in substantially the same manner.
