Agenda Report
ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Maria E. Ayala, Chief City Clerk
SUBJECT: Approval of Updated 2020 City Council Meeting Schedule Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Updated City Council meeting schedule for the 2020 calendar year adding the August 5, 2020 City Council Meeting.
Discussion/Analysis
Pursuant to South Pasadena Municipal Code, Chapter 2, Article I, Section 2.1 the City Council meetings are held on the first and third Wednesdays of each month. Closed Session begins at 6:30 p.m. and Open Session begins at 7:30 p.m. Adopting a meeting schedule will give the City Council, staff, and the community the ability to plan their schedules accordingly for the upcoming calendar year. The City Council maintains the ability to adjust, cancel, and/or add other meetings as deemed appropriate.
On December 4, 2019 City Council approved the 2020 City Council Meeting Schedule. There were three meeting cancellations on that schedule, one of which was August 5, 2020. This meeting was cancelled from previous direction of City Council to cancel the first meeting in August – unless there is a special need to conduct City business.
There now exists a need to hold the August 5, 2020 City Council meeting and conduct City business. This is the last meeting date for City Council to consider action to add ballot measures for the November 3, 2020 General Municipal Election. Other City business items will be agendized as this will be a Regular City Council Meeting.

Agenda Report
ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Karen Aceves, Finance Director
Albert Trinh, Finance Manager
SUBJECT: Monthly Investment Reports for April 2020
Recommendation Action
It is recommended that the City Council receive and file the monthly investment reports for April 2020.
Commission Review and Recommendation
This matter was not reviewed by a commission.
Discussion/Analysis
The City’s investments have shown some modest gains from prior month. The investments in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) earned a quarterly interest of $109k. The market value of the investments held at Morgan Stanley increased by $106k from prior month.
While the City plans ahead and prepares for the potential economic downturn, the investments are held in a strategic manner where significant money is held in LAIF. The liquidity with LAIF is one business day-- this allows the City to access funds as needed.
Background
As required by law, a monthly investment report, including water bond funds, is presented to the City Council disclosing investment activities, types of investments, dates of maturities, amounts of deposits, rates of interest, and securities with a maturity of more than 12 months at current market values.
The reports reflect all investments at the above-referenced date and are in conformity with the City Investment Policy as stated in Resolution No. 7635. A copy of the Resolution is available at the City Clerk’s Office.
Legal Review
The City Attorney has not reviewed this item.
Fiscal Impact
The investments herein provide sufficient cash flow liquidity to meet the estimated expenditures, 8 - 1

ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Sheila Pautsch, Community Services Director SUBJECT: Award of Contract to Better 4 You Meals in the Amount of $85,135 for the Catered Senior Meal Program beginning June 1, 2020 and Fiscal Year 2020-2021, with the Option to Renew the Contract for an Additional Four Year
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Award a contract for the Senior Meal Program (Program) to Better 4 You Meals in the amount of $85,135 for Fiscal year 2020-2021, to provide meals at the Senior Center and for home delivery. The contract will serve for a one-year period. Additionally, in accordance with the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) guidelines, staff may automatically renew the contract up to four additional years (pending sufficient funds from CDBG), for a contract total of five-years, ending in 2025.
2. Approval starting June 1, 2020; contract with existing caterer will be terminated effective May 30, 2020.
Discussion/Analysis
The Senior Meals Program is an essential service provided by the City, averaging 365 meals a week and 19,000 meals a year. Staff is recommending changing to a new caterer as a result of quality issues with the current catering company. The recommended caterer was selected through an RFP process and submitted the lowest cost proposal, which will also reduce overall costs to the program.
The Senior Center provides catered lunches on a daily basis, both onsite and for home delivery.
The meals served adhere to stringent health provisions (set forth by federal regulations), providing seniors access to healthy affordable meals on a daily basis. In addition to the nutritional value, the Program also offers social benefits and opportunities to foster comradery.
Onsite meals currently cost $2.75 each, while home delivery is $3.00 per meal.
Overall, participation has remained similar to the past year, however the participants complained regularly from September 2019 through March 2020 of unfavorable quality of food.
Participation increased after March16, 2020 due to COVID-19 with senior citizens needing to stay at home. The meal program being an essential service allowed residents to receive hot meal 9 - 1
Award of Contract for the Senior Meal Program
June 17, 2020
daily and boxed meals for the weekend.
The recommendation is to award a contract for the program to Better 4 You Meals at the rate of $4.60 per meal for home delivered and $4.38 for meals served on site. The rate with the current caterer is $5.40 per meal; this represents a cost savings of .80 cents per delivered and $1.02 for onsite meal under the new contract with the Better 4 You. With a lower cost per meal, there will be a less impact to the General Fund. They also will provide once per month meetings with the chef and seniors to receive feedback on food items. Overall, the contract stipulates one-year of service, with the option for renewal of up to four additional years (pending sufficient grant funds from CDBG in the subsequent years). In total, the proposed contract is for five-years, ending in 2025.

meals) $85,134 $54,425
Alternatives Considered
In the RFP staff included the option of cooking meals onsite. One bid was submitted at the rate of $5.80 per meal. This would not only increase the operational cost for the City, but would also include the purchase of additional equipment for food storage (approximately $110,200 annually, plus equipment).
Fiscal Impact
Funding for this Program is comprised of three different sources. CDBG partially funds the Program, in the amount of $24,998 (amount is contingent on available grant funds, which varies on a yearly basis). Additionally, the cost of the Program is supplemented by fees from participants (anticipated revenue) in the amount of $54,425. Additional General Fund dollars, of $5,711, are required to compensate for the cost per meal a reduction from past years. The total budget for the Program is $85,134, a $20,000 reduction. Below is a chart depicting the breakdown in funds for the Program for FY 2020-2021.

Award of Contract for the Senior Meal Program
June 17, 2020
In comparison to this current FY 2019-20, the City will reduce required supplemental general fund dollars by approximately $19,000 in FY 2020-21. This is in part due to a substantial decrease between the current catering contract and the proposed new contract. Overall, the City will continue to meet its obligation to the community and meet the expectations of City Council with minimal assistance from the general fund.
Background
The current contract awarded in 2018 to Catering Systems Incorporated for the Senior Meals Program will expire on June 30, 2020. Due to poor performance they will be notified five days before the end of June of their termination, as stated in their contract.
Request for Proposals (RFP) went to 12 vendors with two bids received on March 27, 2020. To ensure the integrity of the bidding and selection process and in accordance with the CDBG procurement procedures, staff completed the following actions:
• Outlined initial outreach efforts in support of a competitive bidding process; and • Continued outreach to vendors prior to deadline to assure packets were received With two bids submitted, the recommendation is to award contract to the lowest bidder.
The Program has provided meals to seniors for 30 years. The community is accustomed to the Program and in some aspects reliant on it, especially during COVID-19 closure. For instance, prior to COVID-19 the Program delivered 28 meals per day, for the last month and half deliveries have reached as high as 85 meals per day. In addition the Program delivered 10 boxed meals for the weekend prior to closure, and is now delivering 80 boxed meals.
The Program offers once per month special events themed around a special program or holiday, with six of them regularly sponsored such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chinese New Year, Valentines and Mother’s Day.
The subsidized Senior Meal Program continues to thrive and much needed essential service to the community. Moreover, the affordable and nutritious meals continue to bring seniors together fostering community and well-being.

Agenda Report
ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Shahid Abbas, Public Works Director
Julian Lee, P.E., Deputy Public Works Director
Anteneh Tesfaye, Water Operations Manager
SUBJECT: Purchase of Carbon Media from Calgon Carbon Corporation for the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System for a Total Not-to-Exceed Amount of $185,000
Recommendation Action:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to purchase carbon media from Calgon Carbon Corporation (Calgon) for a total not-to-exceed amount of $185,000 ($178,130 for the bid amount and $6,870 for contingency) for the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System.
Discussion/Analysis:
The groundwater from the Wilson wells pass through the Granular Activate Carbon (GAC) vessels of the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System and the granular active carbon media inside the GAC vessels remove 1,2,3-TCP contaminate from the groundwater. The removal of the 1,2,3-TCP contaminate allows the water to be safe to drink for the customers. In order to comply with the operational guidelines of the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water (SWRCB-DDW) and continue to effectively operate the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System, the replacement of the carbon media is essential and warranted.
The first half of the media replacement was approved by the City Council on September 18, 2019 and was replaced in November of 2019. The analysis of the first half of the spent media revealed the presence of mercury, a naturally-occurring chemical element found in rock in the earth's crust. The level of mercury found in the groundwater is substantially below the state and federal standards. However, the mercury level in the spent GAC media exceeded the regeneration process and subsequently had to be disposed at an authorized waste landfill. The new carbon media will allow the continued safe water supply from the Wilson wells and comply with SWRCB-DDW’s contamination mitigation guidelines.
Finally, the purchase of the GAC media is critical for the continual operation of the Wilson wells which will reduce the City’s purchase of surface water from Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) at a significantly higher rate and avoid water discoloration due to 10 - 1
Purchase of Carbon Media from Calgon Carbon Corporation for the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System
June 17, 2020
MWD water in the City water system. This purchase qualifies for sole source purchase exemption from the Public Contracts Code pursuant to SPMC § 2.99-37(a)(3).
Background:
The Wilson Wellhead Treatment project was completed in March of 2019 with the City Council approving the notice of completion on April 17, 2019. The state of the art facility of the Wilson Wellhead Treatment System project consists of a Granular Activate Carbon (GAC) wellhead treatment system with eight 20,000 lbs vessels, providing not only a permanent compliance with the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) 1,2,3,-Trichloropropane (1,2,3-TCP) regulation but also exceeding the water quality guidelines.
Legal Review
The City Attorney has reviewed this item.
Fiscal Impact
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 Budget adopted by the City Council includes funding for the purchase of the carbon media in Water Production Contract Services Account No. 500-6010- 6711-8180.
Environmental Analysis
This item is exempt from any California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis based on State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 Existing Facilities.
Public Notification of Agenda Item
The public was made aware that this item was to be considered this evening by virtue of its inclusion on the legally publicly noticed agenda, posting of the same agenda and reports on the City’s website and/or notice in the South Pasadena Review and/or the Pasadena Star-News.

The Fee will be determined at the time an order is placed for exchange of Activated Carbon or at the time a return of spent carbon is scheduled if purchase of replacement Activated Carbon is not required.

Any indemnification obligations of the parties do not apply to any use of the Products. 12) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, the parties hereto agree that in no event shall either party be liable to the other party for any indirect, special, consequential, incidental or punitive damages, or lost profits, 10 - 7
as a result of a breach of any provision of this Agreement or for any other claim of any kind arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, for all losses, damages, liabilities or expenses (including attorney's fees and costs), whether for indemnity or negligence, including errors, omissions or other acts, or willful misconduct, or based in contract, warranty (including any costs and fees for repairing, replacing or re-performing services or curing a breach hereof), or for any other cause of action (individually, a "Claim"; collectively, "Claims"), Seller's liability, including the liability of its insurers, employees, agents, directors, and officers and all other persons for whom Seller is legally responsible, shall not, to the maximum extent permitted by law, exceed in the cumulative aggregate with respect to all Claims arising out of or related to this Agreement, the lesser of (a) the total amount of compensation paid to Seller hereunder, and (b) One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). All Claims of whatsoever nature shall be deemed waived unless made in writing within ninety (90) days of the occurrence giving rise to the Claim.
Moreover, any failure of Buyer to notify Seller of unsatisfactory operation or any improper or unauthorized installation, maintenance, use, repair, or adjustment shall relieve Seller of any further responsibilities hereunder.
13) FORCE MAJEURE: Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein, Seller shall have no liability to Buyer or its affiliates, and shall have the right to suspend performance (including, without limitation, shipments) hereunder, in the event of war, riot, terrorism, accident, explosion, sabotage, flood, acts of God, fire, court order, strike, labor disturbance, work stoppage, national defense requirements, act of governmental authority, extraordinary failure of equipment or apparatus, inability to obtain electricity or other type of energy, raw material, labor, equipment or transportation, or other causes beyond Seller's reasonable control. It is understood and agreed that settlement of strikes, lockouts and other labor disputes shall be entirely within the discretion of Seller and that nothing in this Agreement shall require the settlement of strikes, lockouts and labor disputes when such course is inadvisable in the sole discretion of Seller.
14) EXPORT CONTROLS: Buyer acknowledges that the Products and related technology are subject to U.S. export controls and economic sanctions, which may include the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and regulations promulgated by the U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). Buyer further acknowledges that the reexport of the Products and/or related technology to a third country or retransfer to an unapproved end user may require a license or other authorization from the Government of the United States. Such licenses or other authorizations may impose further restrictions on the reexport or retransfer of the Products and/or related technology. U.S. law also restricts the reexport or retransfer of U.S.-origin goods, technology, or services to countries or persons subject to U.S. sanctions or embargoes. Buyer represents and warrants that it is in compliance with and agrees to comply with all such applicable export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations. It is the sole responsibility of Buyer to apply for and obtain any necessary licenses or other authorizations prior to any reexport or retransfer of the Products and/or related technology. Seller makes no warranty that any such licenses or other authorizations will be granted, and shall have no liability for Buyer's inability to obtain such licenses or other authorization or for any violation by Buyer of any applicable export control and/or economic sanctions laws and regulations. Buyer will indemnify Seller and hold it harmless from any liability resulting from Buyer's violation of this provision or applicable export laws or regulations.

Buyer agrees that all pricing, discounts, design drawings and technical information that Seller provides to Buyer are the confidential and proprietary information of Seller, whether or not otherwise identified as such. The obligations under this section continue perpetually and survive the termination or expiration of any underlying agreement between the parties. The provisions of this section relating to use and disclosure shall not apply to any information that:

If Buyer becomes legally compelled (by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, investigative demands or similar process) to disclose any of the confidential information, Buyer shall provide Seller with prompt written notice so that Seller may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or 10 - 8
waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or if Seller waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, Buyer shall furnish only that portion of the confidential information which Buyer is legally required to disclose and shall exercise its reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment shall be accorded the confidential information. Buyer shall not undertake any qualitative or quantitative analysis, reverse engineering or replication of any of Seller's products, samples or prototypes without Seller's specific written authorization.

In the event that Seller has agreed in writing to provide notice of Product Improvements to Buyer (the "Notice"), then Seller shall provide such Notice in accordance with the terms set forth in the separate writing.

Agenda Report
ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Shahid Abbas, Public Works Director
Garrett Crawford, Public Works Operations Manager
SUBJECT: Approve an Agreement with Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment Inc. for 2020 Sewer System Closed Circuit Television Inspection and Cleaning Project in an Amount Not-to-Exceed $502,920
Recommended Action
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Accept a bid dated May 14, 2020 from Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment Inc. for the 2020 Sewer System Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) Inspection and Cleaning Project (Project);
2. Authorize the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment Inc., for a bid amount of $457,200;
3. Authorized a construction contingency ten percent in the amount of $45,720 for a total amount of $502,920; and
4. Authorize a budget amendment to transfer $502,920 from the Sewer Fund reserve to Sewer Account No. 210-9000-9000-9010-000
Discussion/Analysis
On January 1, 2020, the City of South Pasadena approved a contract award to Carollo Engineers Inc. to complete the Integrated Water and Wastewater Management Plan (IWWMP). As part of the IWWMP, the Consultant will be developing a comprehensive multi-year capital improvement program for the sewer system improvements. Between 2014 and 2017, the City rehabilitated approximately 60% of the collection system as part of a two-phase sewer rehabilitation project. To prioritize capital improvements for the City's sewer system moving forward, updated sewer videos and condition assessments are required. The Consultant will utilize this data to access the existing condition of sewer system and suggest necessary improvements to be included in IWWMP.
In compliance with the South Pasadena Municipal Code (SPMC), the Project was advertised for bids on the City's website and in the South Pasadena Review in April 2020. Subsequently, the City received the following six proposals:

Agreement with Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc.
June 17, 2020
Contractor Total Bid Amount
Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. $457,200
Tunnel Works $455,756
NorCal $529,610
National Plant $614,606
ProPipe $727,613
Downstream Incomplete Proposal
Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment Inc. (Empire) submitted the most qualified responsive bid.
Empire was selected based on vast experience with longevity, optimal construction scheduling accommodating the City’s need and cost. To verify the quality of the work, staff checked the contractor's references and found their work performances to be satisfactory. Empire proposal did not reflect the lowest cost, however since they were the most qualified proposer, the City negotiated their price down from $492,200 to $457,200. Based on their experience, references, and cost, Staff's recommendation is to award the Project to Empire. The expected Project completion is 100 working days.
Background
The City's sewer collection system consists of approximately 306,240 linear feet (58 miles) of sewer pipelines. Of the pipelines, nearly 90% are 8-inch diameter vitrified clay pipe (VCP), and the balance are of various sizes up to 16-inches. The City has a lift station at the Arroyo South Park restrooms installed approximately ten years ago, a lift station at the Mission Meridian Parking Garage installed in 2003, as well as a lift station and force main at the Arroyo Seco Golf Course installed in July 2016. The City presently does not own or operate any pump stations or treatment facilities.
Between 2008 and 2012, the City conducted a system-wide CCTV inspection of the sewer network, identified defects, and prioritized improvements based on condition ratings. Starting in 2013, these results were prioritized, and improvements were designed into a multi-phase sewer system rehabilitation plan. Between 2014 and 2017, the City rehabilitated approximately 60% of the collection system. Specifically, 173,860 linear feet (33 miles) were rehabilitated with trenchless cured-in-place-pipe (CIPP) technology and spot repairs; and 5,988 linear feet (1.13 miles) were replaced by open trench construction. As part of this effort, the City had also acquired as-built information and digital files, which contain detailed pipeline information (e.g., length, diameter, slope, material, condition, etc.).
Prior to the rehabilitation effort, the City's collection system was generally between 60 to 90 years old. The City also had experienced some sewer overflows due to sewer defects and root intrusion. Today, the City's system is performing satisfactorily; however, the City desires to modernize its tools and employ a more systematic approach to maintaining its sewer system. 11 - 2

Legal Review
The City Attorney has reviewed this item.
Fiscal Impact
This Project is not included in the current capital improvement plan budget; however, there is sufficient funding in the Sewer reserve fund to be transferred to the Sewer fund Account No. 210-9000-9000-9010-000 to fund the Project. No General Fund funding is required for this Project. The results of the IWWMP sewer improvements will be prioritized into future capital improvement plans. The Sewer fund can only be utilized for the operation and maintenance of the sewer system.
Environmental Analysis
This Project is exempt from any California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) analysis based on State CEQA Guidelines Section requirements under Section 21084 of the Public Resources Code, in accordance with Article 19, Section 15301, Class (1) "existing facilities." Public Notification of Agenda Item

Contractor shall clean from the downstream utility hole to the upstream utility hole and pull the debris back to the downstream utility hole and vacuum any debris present. Reverse cleaning may be needed when the downstream utility hole is not accessible. The second crew member shall open the upstream utility hole cover while cleaning to verify that the nozzle has reached the upstream utility hole channel
All sludge, dirt, sand, rock, roots, grease, and other solid or semi-solid material resulting from the cleaning operations shall be removed at the downstream utility hole of the utility hole section being cleaned. Disposal of such debris shall be done at an appropriate site and be the responsibility of the Contractor. Passing material from utility hole section to utility hole section or to the treatment plant, which could cause stoppage of the lines, accumulation in wet wells, or damage to pumping equipment, shall not be permitted.
Contractor shall comply with all current health and safety laws and regulations (Federal, State, County, City, and Special Districts).
Contractor shall use a cleaning report form to record the location of the cleaning operation, the number of feet cleaned, and the conditions encountered for each section of sewer main cleaned.
Cleaning logs shall be submitted with monthly invoices as part of the approval process. Electronic formats shall be submitted at the same time.
Contractor shall provide confined space equipment and procedures per CAL OSHA Standards for those situations that require an entry. The Contractor is required to operate and maintain safety equipment and is responsible for all safety training of its crews. 11 - 24
Contractor shall perform sewer cleaning services during the hours of 7:00 am to 4:00 pm Monday through Friday. Cleaning or inspection outside these hours shall first be approved by the City Engineer or Project Manager.
3. Pipeline Data Collection
Contractor's computer system required is POSM collection software using the latest version and shall be capable of documenting the inspections for sanitary sewer pipes and access structures by recording inspection findings in video and report format. This database standard includes but is not limited to indexing, processing inspection data, printing CCTV inspection reports, recording and storing videos and images as required for the data documentation requirements of these specifications.
All Contractor's CCTV operators performing the CCTV inspection shall be PACP certified by NASSCO's Pipeline Assessment and Certification Program. Each Contractor's CCTV inspection operator for the project must possess and submit a valid PACP Certificate with a certification number. The methodology of sewer pipe evaluation, data collection, and reporting criteria used for the NASSCO certification shall be practiced for the each CCTV inspection. The sequence of each CCTV Inspection shall be completed one segment at a time, pipe manhole-to-structure.
The preferred direction of CCTV Inspections shall be downstream with the flow of the pipe unless access to the upstream utility hole is not possible, or the camera cannot pass through the pipe from upstream utility hole to downstream structure in the direction of the flow, in which case a reverse setup inspection from downstream utility hole to upstream structure must be performed. CCTV inspections that require a reverse setup must be recorded as a new CCTV inspection and indicated as a "Reverse setup" in the POSM session header information. If a reverse setup attempt cannot be performed due to defect severity and "empty header" survey that has an "MSA" code must be provided w/ comments. This helps a lot w/ tracking on the back end to ensure that survey are attempted at least from both ends of the pipe.
Contractor's camera shall be moved through the line at a moderate rate, stopping when necessary to permit proper documentation of the sewer's condition. The camera shall stop at each service lateral and provide a view up the service line. When a defect or other feature is encountered and needs to be coded, the camera is panned to capture a clear observation, the defect coded, and still picture captured. In no case will the television camera be pulled at a speed greater than 30 feet per minute (0.5 foot per second). Under no circumstances shall the camera be tethered to a hydraulically propelled or high-velocity jet cleaning device.
The camera should be zeroed at the entrance of the pipe; pulled from NASSCO directly. The inspection of a pipe begins at the utility hole wall. The camera should be lowered into the utility hole and positioned in the invert of the utility hole at the pipe entrance.The importance of accurate distance measurement is emphasized. The television cable between the counter and the camera shall be taught at all times.
Maximum depth of flow for CCTV inspections shall be 20 percent of the pipe diameter. If the 11 - 25
depth of flow is greater than 20%, then the CCTV inspection shall be performed during off-peak hours. If the flow is still above 20%, then the Contractor shall suspend inspection of that pipe segment and notify the Engineer.
Contractor shall provide comfortable viewing access to the videotape monitor during the video inspection taping to allow City's representative to compile a log of the inspection. City may make both scheduled and unannounced visits to CCTV inspection operations while Work is in progress.
Contractor shall be responsible for the quality of video and documented observations.
Contractor shall provide a list and bring to the attention of the city engineer any severe defects (PACP Grade 5 rating for Structure and/or Maintenance) discovered within seven calendar days of discovery. Contractor shall immediately notify the City Engineer or Project Manager of any pipes that are found to be collapsed or with the condition that requires immediate attention. If severe defects such as collapses, severe offset joints, or severe sags are encountered that preclude the inspection being completed in one direction, the Contractor shall attempt a reverse setup. If the entire segment cannot be inspected, the Contractor shall suspend the inspection and notify the Engineer within 24 hours. Upon removal of the obstruction, the Contractor shall complete the CCTV inspection.
If a buried utility hole or cleanout is encountered during the course of the CCTV inspection, then the Contractor shall notify the City and note the observation in the POSM assessment. Contractor shall submit to the City Engineer or Project Manager a list of access structures not found or inaccessible and inaccuracies at each Monthly Progress Meeting. If a new structure is found in the field, a temporary naming convention shall be used that is approved by City. (Typically, we would ask the contractors to add the start utility hole id _A.. when surveying downstream and _1 for upstream.)
4. Documentation of CCTV Inspection
All CCTV inspection data collected, including condition rating databases, videos, photos, and other information, must be provided in POSM – latest version. It is the Contractor's responsibility to review the existing POSM system prior to submitting inspection data to ensure that their data will successfully upload.
The POSM session information for each pipe segment shall be recorded in the NASSCO PACP template and shall indicate all the required information not limited to the surveyor name, certificate number, pipe segment reference, date and time, street, City, upstream utility hole, downstream utility hole, sewer use, direction of survey, height (diameter), shape, material, lining method, purpose, pre-cleaning, date cleaned, weather, and location code.
The City will provide wastewater collection system information from the City's GIS database. The information provided to the Contractor can be used to pre-populate the POSM session information.
Pipe segment assessments shall be recorded using the latest version of NASSCO PACP and POSM Software System. Comments shall be noted to document atypical conditions not otherwise described by the observation codes.
11 - 26
There are 417 utility holes without invert information. Contractor is to provide the missing invert data as a portion of the GIS data gathering task of this proposal.
The purpose of digital CCTV inspection recording shall be to supply a visual and permanent record of the sewer condition. For conventional CCTV cameras, the recording shall be MPEG 4 and have a minimum resolution of 352 x 240 pixels and an interlaced frame of 30 frames per second.
Different frame and data rates are acceptable as long as similar or better image quality and acceptable file size are obtained.
Separate data files shall be created for each individual sewer pipe segment, or Pipe Segment ID.
In the case of multiple Pipe Segment IDs without an access structure between them, all Pipe segment IDs shall be noted in the session information If a reverse set up is required due to an obstruction, the reverse inspection shall be recorded in a separate data file.
The following information must be provided as screen text at the beginning of the video recording:
Project Information Pipe
• Project Name • Height (Diameter)
• Surveyor Name • Shape
• Certificate Number • Material
• Owner • Lining Method
• Customer • Total Length
• Pipe Segment Reference • Length Surveyed
• Date and time • Flow Control
• Street • Purpose
• City • Pre-Cleaning
Utility Hole • Date Cleaned
• Upstream MH • Weather
• Downstream MH • Location Code
• Sewer Use • Additional Info
• Direction of Survey • Location Details
All text should be clearly displayed on a contrasting background (e.g. white text on dark background). This text should be displayed for approximately 15 seconds or for the duration of the start-up narration, whichever is longer. If an inspection is being performed on consecutive pipe segments with the same setup, this information must be provided at the start of each pipe segment.
During conventional CCTV Inspections the running screen must include the following information:
• Upstream utility hole ID
• Downstream utility hole ID
• Date
• Time
• Pipe Size
• Running footage
11 - 27
Digital video inspection files are to be part of the POSM inspection database that is copied onto a portable hard drive and provided to the City. Computer hard drive storage capacity for the CCTV inspections shall be adequate to minimize the number of hard drives required to store all inspection data. The audio and video shall be free of electrical interference. Digital video recording playback shall be at the same speed it was recorded. Hard drive labels shall be uniquely identified.
Contractor shall have lateral launch capability for evaluation of the residential or commercial laterals from the sewer mainline. Software collection system shall be POSM, and operators must be LACP Certified.
5. Environmental Mitigation
The Contractor shall comply with the following environmental mitigations:
All storm drains within and immediately adjacent to the project limits are to be protected from pollutants through the use of BMP's as directed by the City Public Works Department. BMP's will include but are not limited to placement of sandbags or other water containment devices and wet vacuuming of concrete residue during saw cutting and pressure washing operations.
Washing down of sediment, concrete residue, or any other debris to the storm drain is strictly prohibited by City Ordinance and State regulation of stormwater quality. The BMP's shall be furnished and installed by the Contractor, and no additional compensation will be allowed, therefore.
6. Traffic Control
The Contractor shall provide all traffic controls necessary to provide for the safe and expeditious movement of traffic, motorized and non-motorized (including pedestrian traffic), through the construction zones, as well as those necessary to provide for the safety of the workforce performing the construction per the Traffic Control Plans included in the project drawings.

Agenda Report ITEM NO. ____
DATE: June 17, 2020
FROM: Stephanie DeWolfe, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Joanna Hankamer, Director of Planning and Community Development Kanika Kith, Current Planning Manager
SUBJECT: Authorize the Professional Services Agreements with three on-call Planning Firms to assist with Major Project Review in the amount not to exceed of $50,000 per firm for a total not to exceed amount of $150,000 for all three, paid for by project applicants
Recommendation Action
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the Professional Services Agreements (PSAs) with three on-call Planning Firms to assist with Major Project Review in the amount not-to-exceed of $50,000 per firm.
Executive Summary
On December 4, 2019, the City Council adopted an ordinance establishing a Major Project Review process that allows the City to contract with planning firms with project specific expertise to review major or complex projects and assign the additional cost to project applicants. To continue to utilize this Major Project Review process, a Professional Service Agreement (PSA) is required between the City and each of the planning firms before a contract planner can proceed to work on a project.
Discussion/Analysis
The proposed PSAs are master contract agreements between the City and the three on-call planning firms, Rincon Consultants, Interwest Consulting Group, and MIG. Each PSA is in the amount not to exceed $50,000. Currently, Staff solicits requests for proposals for each Major Project Review, taking time for procurement each time a Major Project Review is initiated.
Once Master PSAs are executed, staff will be able to assign a dedicated contract planner from one of the three prequalified firms with project specific expertise to guide a project, under the oversight of the City staff, through the City’s review process. Each project applicant will be responsible for the actual costs of the contract planner working on the project and will advance a deposit to cover the costs of the contract planner plus 10% for the City’s administrative costs of overseeing the projects. The proposed PSAs would accelerate project review and approval at no cost to the City general fund, thereby helping the City meet State mandated timelines for review of development projects. In addition, it would improve customer service to project applicants. 12 12-1
Professional Services Agreements for Major Project Review June 17, 2020
These three on-call planning firms were selected in June 2019 in response to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for On-call Planning and Entitlement Review Services in May 2019.
These are the only three planning firms that submitted Statement of Qualifications, which were reviewed in June 2019 and each firm was interviewed by the former Planning Director. All three multi-disciplinary planning firms have extensive experience in providing on-call planning services and have highly qualified teams of Planners.
Staff will initiate another RFQ later this fall to expand the City’s list of planning firms for Major Project Review.
Legal Review
The City Attorney has reviewed this item.
Fiscal Impact
No impact to the City’s general fund because the applicant will be responsible to reimburse the City for the costs of using a contract planner. The City will not bear any costs associated with Major Project Reviews.
Public Notification of Agenda Item
The public was made aware that this item was to be considered this evening by virtue of its inclusion on the legally publicly noticed agenda, and posting of the same agenda and reports on the City’s website.
