Re: Proposed Cal Cities Bylaws Amendments
On July 15, 2022, the League of California Cities (Cal Cities) Board of Directors (Board) voted to present proposed bylaws amendments to the General Assembly at the 2022 Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. This memorandum outlines the history of the proposed amendments, summarizes the amendments, and provides an explanation of the process for adopting amendments to the bylaws.
Background
Beginning in 2017, the Board directed Cal Cities to undertake a strategic planning process that resulted in the adoption of the “Powering Up for California Cities Strategic Grown Plan 2018-2021” (Strategic Growth Plan). The Strategic Growth Plan set forth goals to enhance Cal Cities’ governance to: (a) achieve even higher levels of engagement and effectiveness; (b) ensure optimal engagement by members and effectiveness in supporting fulfillment of the Cal Cities’ mission; and (c) ensure the pathway to leadership is transparent and inclusive.
In furtherance of its governance goals, the Board engaged an association governance consultant (Consultant) to evaluate the Cal Cities governance system and make recommendations for enhancing Cal Cities’ governance. The Consultant gathered and considered input from more than 350 Cal Cities members through advisory groups, roundtable discussions, interviews, and surveys. On July 8, 2021, the Consultant produced a report (Governance Report) detailing 49 recommendations to the Board to deepen the engagement of Cal Cities Member Cities and ensure Cal Cities’ governance is operating at peak performance.
The Governance Report included findings indicating that Cal Cities is a strong organization, with a high level of member engagement, but also highlighted opportunities for Cal Cities to enhance its governance. The opportunities for enhancement included: (a) improving the clarity, ease, and consistency in how the governance system works; (b) clarifying the guidelines for position qualifications and performance expectations; (c) identifying ways to deepen member engagement and enhance the quality of the experience of involvement; and (d) ensuring Cal Cities has an intentional, consistent organizational culture at all levels of the governance system.
1 The findings and recommendations from the Governance Report were presented to the Board during the July 2021 Board meeting. Following a robust exchange of ideas and input, the Board decided to move forward with many of the recommendations, referred other recommendations to a “to be established” board subcommittee for further study, and deferred consideration of the remaining recommendations.
Following Board approval, in September 2021 during the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo, the General Assembly voted to approve the following bylaws amendments:
1. Adjust the composition of the Board to achieve a higher impact and be more representative by adding Director seats to the Board for each of the five Diversity Caucuses, and transitioning members of the National League of Cities Board from Cal Cities Directors to one non-voting advisor to the Cal Cities Board.
2. Recognize the Cal Cities Diversity Caucuses in the Cal Cities bylaws to reflect the full contribution the caucuses make to Cal Cities’ mission and vision.
Those amendments became effective on Nov. 24, 2021.
Among the recommendations the Board decided was a priority to move forward was the establishment of a standing Governance Committee to assist the Board in fulfilling its governance function.
At its February 2022 meeting, the Board voted to approve Board policy establishing the Governance Committee with the task of regularly reviewing the governance structures, policies, and practices of Cal Cities and reporting its findings and recommendations to the Board. The Board also approved a one-year work plan for the Governance Committee that established priority governance issues to focus on in its first year.
Following the Board meeting, President Cindy Silva appointed the following Board members to serve on the Governance Committee:
• Cheryl Viegas Walker, Immediate Past President and Council Member, El Centro, Chair • Walt Allen, Council Member, Covina
• Jan Arbuckle, Vice Mayor, Grass Valley
• LaTanya Bellow, Deputy City Manager, Berkeley
• Pippin Dew, Council Member, Vallejo
• Lynne Kennedy, Mayor Pro Tem, Rancho Cucamonga
• Karen Goh, Mayor, Bakersfield
• Jim Lewis, City Manager, Pismo Beach
• Lisa Middleton, Mayor, Palm Springs
• John Minto, Mayor, Santee
• David Pollock, Council Member, Moorpark
2 The Governance Committee met in April 2022, and following engaging and productive discussions, brought forward to the Board at its May 2022 meeting several recommendations to further enhance Cal Cities’ governance. Among the recommendations approved by the Board during that meeting are two that require bylaws amendments:
1. Formalize oversight of the Resolutions Committee by establishing the Second Vice President as the chair of the committee, while retaining the President’s authority to appoint the vice chair of the committee.
2. To ensure a more inclusive Nominating Committee, add one committee member appointed from among the Caucus Directors and one additional committee member appointed from among the At-Large Directors for a total of 13 committee members.1 In addition to those recommendations identified by the Governance Committee and approved by the Board, Cal Cities staff identified various non-substantive revisions to the Cal Cities bylaws:
1. Clarify that, unless the Board establishes otherwise, the Cal Cities President appoints the chair of Board-established committees.
2. To avoid confusion and clarify organizational responsibilities, remove “Treasurer” from the title of the Second Vice President.
2 3. To promote consistency, replace the term “Board member(s)” with “Director(s).”3 On July 15, 2022, the Board voted to present these proposed bylaws amendments to the General Assembly at the 2022 Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo.
While the work to enhance Cal Cities’ governance is a process being implemented in phases over several years, the Board believes these proposed amendments constitute important next steps toward ensuring Cal Cities’ governance is operating at peak performance. 1 Under the current bylaws, the Nominating Committee is comprised of 11 Directors. Two committee members are appointed from among At-Large Directors and one from a Department. Divisions participate on a rotation, with Directors residing within eight of the Divisions appointed in even-numbered years and Directors from the other eight appointed in odd-numbered years. 2 Under the current bylaws, the Second Vice President is referred to as “Second Vice President/Treasurer.” However, in practice the Second Vice President does not serve as treasurer of Cal Cities. Rather, that function is performed by the Chief Financial Officer designated in Article VIII, section 5, subdivision b(2), of the Cal Cities bylaws.
3 The current bylaws primarily refer to members of the Cal Cities Board of Directors as “Directors.” However, there are instances in which they are referred to as “Board members.” 3 Procedure for Amending the Cal Cities Bylaws
Amendments to the Cal Cities bylaws may be proposed by the Cal Cities Board and may be adopted: (a) by vote of the Cal Cities General Assembly, or (b) by mail ballot to Member Cities.4 In this case, the amendments will be considered by the General Assembly. Bylaws amendments need to be approved by 2/3 of those voting,5
and the number that constitutes 2/3 of those voting
(a) cannot be less than a majority of the voting delegates present if there is a quorum at the time the vote is taken;6 or (b) cannot be less than a majority of a quorum if the meeting started with a quorum but a quorum is not present when the vote is taken.7 If approved by the General Assembly, the amendments to the bylaws will go into effect after the expiration of a 60-day protest period.8 If, within 60 days after the adoption of the amendments, one-third or more of Member Cities submit a written protest against such amendments, the amendments are automatically suspended until the next Annual Conference and Expo, when they may be taken up again for reconsideration and vote.9 If the amendments are approved by the General Assembly and no protest is lodged, the effective date of the bylaws amendments will be Nov. 9, 2022.

If a board memberDirector or policy committee member believes that there are circumstances under which Cal Cities’ members might reasonably question the board member’sDirector’s or policy committee member’s ability to act solely in the best interests of Cal Cities and its member cities, the prudent course is to abstain. As an example, typically Cal Cities board membersDirectors have abstained from participating in decisions on legislation that would affect organizations for which they work. Another example is legislation that would uniquely benefit a board member’sDirector’s city.
Policy committee members should also consider abstaining in similar circumstances. 10 The Administrative Services Committee recommends Cal Cities also include notice of the upcoming ballot in a variety of Cal Cities communications to alert Member Cities to make inquiry in the event a city’s ballot is lost in the mail. 14 1

1 CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: August 23, 2022
SUBJECT: AWARD OF CONTRACT TO PBK TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE NORM
ROSS SPORTS PARK PROJECT (TASK CODE 2022-204)
REPORT IN BRIEF:
In December 2021, the City was awarded $7,691,059 in grant funding from the State of California through the Proposition 68 Statewide Park Program for the design and construction of the Norm Ross Sports Park (Park) on Garden Grove Unified School District property adjacent to Carver Elementary School. Subsequently, in April 2022, City staff released a Request for Proposal (RFP) soliciting proposals to provide professional design and construction support services for the Park. The proposed scope of work includes preparing preliminary and final design plans, construction bid documents and specifications, and providing construction support services such as responding to requests for information during the construction phase. City staff recommends awarding a contract to PBK in an amount not to exceed $640,000 for these services.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
1. City Council declare this project will require the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration under the California Environmental Quality Act; and
2. Award a contract to PBK to provide professional design and construction support services for a maximum contract amount of $640,000; and
3. Authorize the City Manager and the City Attorney to make edits to the professional services agreement as necessary; and
4. Authorize the City Manager to bind the City of Stanton and PBK in a contract to provide the services; and
5. Authorize the City Manager to approve contract change orders and contract amendments with PBK, as needed and determined by City staff, for any contingencies up to $64,000 (10% of the contract amount).
Item: 6G
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 BACKGROUND:
The proposed Norm Ross Sports Park, located at 11150 Santa Rosalia Street, will be built on 9 acres of land consisting of the existing Norm Ross Sports Complex plus the adjoining Stanton Community Garden on land owned by the Garden Grove Unified School District (GGUSD). The City will enter into a new long-term lease with GGUSD to transform the underutilized baseball field and community garden into the proposed 9-acre recreational sports park. Proposed amenities include:
• An event plaza
• Community building
• Multi-purpose sports court
• Community garden and storage structure
• Dog park/dog run area
• Picnic areas
• Exercise equipment
• Playground
• Baseball field
• Landscaping and irrigation
• Perimeter trail
• Shade structures
• New connecting bridge over the storm channel with Stanton Park.
City staff released a RFP soliciting proposals to provide professional design consulting services for the preliminary and final design and development of all necessary construction drawings and documents for the project. The City also requested optional construction support services.
The RFP was released in a two-envelope format in accordance with the City’s Purchasing Policy and Procedures. The submittal consists of a written proposal and a separate, sealed fee proposal to ensure contract award is principally based on qualifications rather than low-bid. The City’s Purchasing Policy then provides that:
• The written proposal envelopes are opened, and the enclosed proposals are evaluated by City staff.
• Once a consensus is reached on the best written proposal, City staff will negotiate a fee with the best qualified consultant.
• In the event the City cannot negotiate a fee with the best qualified consultant, the City will negotiate a fee with the second ranked consultant, and so on until an agreement is reached.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
A RFP was issued on April 28, 2022 with a proposal due date of June 2, 2022. Five firms provided proposals: Donald Krotee Partnership, Morrissey Associates, PBK, Studio W Architects, and Westgroup Designs.
3 The proposals were evaluated by the Public Works Department and the Community Services Department. The Public Works Department attempted to negotiate a lower fee with the first ranked firm because their fees were approximately 14% of the construction costs which exceeds the customary 10% threshold, but unfortunately, was unable to reach a satisfactory fee for the design work. Staff negotiated a fee for design and the optional construction support services with the second ranked firm (PBK). PBK’s fee proposal was $230,000 less than the first ranked firm’s fee proposal.
PBK’s design and construction support services fee is approximately 10% of the proposed construction costs. Despite the substantially lower fee, City staff believes that PBK is well-qualified to provide professional design and construction support services for the project based upon discussions with GGUSD and their extensive experience in using PBK for their projects. PBK and its subcontractors have also successfully provided park design services to other cities and school districts, such as the cities of Temecula and Chino Hills, and Huntington Beach Unified, Long Beach Unified, and Capistrano Unified School Districts. PBK’s fee proposal of $640,000 includes an allocation of $448,000 for design fees and $192,000 for construction support services. The fee proposal does not include some possible reimbursable expenses such as bulk printing, plotting, copying, and scanning, or permits, plan check, inspection fees, and City business license fees.
This project will also require the preparation of a Mitigated Negative Declaration to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). PBK’s scope of work includes preparation of this document.
City staff requests an advance authorization from City Council for up to $64,000 in contract change orders which may be used to cover both reimbursable expenses as well as unforeseen design work and construction support services. Given that this is a grantfunded project on GGUSD property, there may be unforeseen requirements from DSA, the County Flood Control District, or environmental agencies that may impact PBK’s scope of work.
City staff is in the process of reviewing a draft lease agreement required to construct the project on GGUSD property (Carver Elementary School). Upon completion of this review, City staff will present the draft lease agreement to GGUSD. The draft lease agreement will seek a long-term lease from GGUSD. The minimum lease required by the Proposition 68 grant is 30 years to ensure the facility will remain in place.
This project is subject to Division of State Architect (DSA) review because the project is located on school district property. Consequently, the City will need to pay for DSA plan check fees estimated to be $80,000. DSA also requires that a DSA-approved construction inspector review structural and accessible improvements. GGUSD has offered to cover the costs of hiring a DSA-approved construction inspector to inspect the construction of improvements. These costs are not included in the fee proposal and will be paid separately by the City as part of the Proposition 68 grant. 4 FISCAL IMPACT:
The adopted budget for the Norm Ross Sports Park (Task Code 2022-204) has sufficient funds available for design and construction support services. A summary of estimated expenses associated with this project is listed below.

Encompassing a 33 acre site, the Chino Hills Community Park is designed for multiuse sports fields. Utilizing synthetic turf play surfacing and lights for night games, the six (6) fields accomodate youth baseball. adult softball, and soccer games. Soft toss batting cages and bull pens for pitcher warm-up are also available to the players.
The facility has been designed to provide convenient parking and pedestrian access to three spectator promenade areas. The project also provides for 425+ parking stalls, group picnic areas, two restroom and concession buildings, tot lot area, open play area, maintenance building and yard, preservation and enhancement of an adjacent riparian corridor, and the utilization of a bio-swale filtration system to promote water quality.
This sports park has many state-of-the-art features such as Musco lighting and synthetic turf fields. The synthetic turf fields offer significant benefits such as no game cancellations after heavy rains; no close down of fields due to repairs caused by heavy use; field markings are permanent; and there is less field maintenance required by sports organizations. The Light Structure Green Lighting System significantly reduces spill-over light to the adjacent neighborhoods.

25 Project Understanding
A. UNDERSTANDING
We understand that the City of Stanton is seeking a qualified architectural and engineering firm to design a new 9 acre recreational sports park that will be shared and enjoyed by the local community.
We know the existing site is consists of an underutilized baseball field and a community garden that is located on the property owned by Garden Grove Unified School District (GGUSDI. We also acknowledged the existing storm channel that will need to be reviewed with Orange County Public Works (OCPWl in order to provide proper access to the park. --....._ __ _
•UHU.NN A\'(NUI •-. .... J
We noted the following elements are to be included into the future design:
Community building with restrooms
• One playground site with a rubber play surface
• Benches
• Sidewalks
• Lighting
• Water play area/splash pad
• Variety of trees and shrubs
• Shade structures
• Multi-purpose sports court
• Litlle League baseball field with integrated soccer
field
• Garden structure
• Drinking fountains
• Skate park (if room allows]
• Group picnic area
• Exercise equipment
• Dog park
Perimeter fencing
Walkway & trail
• Community gardens
• Safety netting
• Outdoor flex space potentially consisting of an
amphitheater
• Pedestrian bridge over adjacent storm channel
The site for this project is included in a Joint Use
Agreement between the City of Stanton and Garden Grove
Unified School District. As such, the project design and construction are subject to the Division of State Architect IDSA] review, oversight, and approval. As the Architect of Record for more than 20 schools with GGUSD, we've
been working with the District for more than a decade.
We're familiar with the surrounding areas and are
considered the industry leader and expert on working
and collaborating with DSA. We will serve as the design professional in-charge and submit the final set of plans to DSA for approval. Any corrections or alterations to the plans, required by DSA, shall be addressed as part of our base contract. The City of Stanton shall be responsible for all permit and inspection fees incurred during this process.
B.APPROACH
The City of Stanton and the Stanton community members will be at the center of our project approach and planning strategy to tailor the project to meet your specific needs.
PBK will employ an interactive design and planning process involving all project stakeholders to build a consensus design.
This process employs a three step process Listen - Learn - Lead and it starts from day one with the pre-design and design phases.
LISTEN - Here at PBK, we are good listeners. This allows us to integrate ourselves as a team member and just absorb information before making any design suggestions. The City has already had much discussion in planning this project so we just need to be a fly on the wall and understand the project from the users· standpoint.
LEARN - While community and sports facilities typically have similar program spaces, our experience tells us that every facility operates a bit differently. We want to fully understand the facility·s daily operational routine. We also need to research and recognize the unique community influences which will have a major impact on the site design. Typical issues such as light spill, egress lighting, support for sound and security systems, integration with existing power, and equipment access will be addressed.
LEAD - With information gathering complete, PBK will now begin the design process. We will lead the project design team through the preparation of the construction documents. We will coordinate the scope of work that will be provided by Sports Park (City I. Once the design is complete and approved by the City of Stanton, OCPW, and GGUSD, our extensive experience with DSA will make for a smooth experience with their review, approval, and subsequent certification of the project. Our project leadership will continue through the bidding and construction administration phases as well.
Employing our Listen, Learn, Lead process, PBK will endeavor to maintain clear and open communications for each member of the immediate and extended project team. Our ability to quickly sketch ideas is key to testing options immediately during project team meeting discussions. This real-time feedback is a PBK hallmark.
C. SCHEDULE AND BUDGET
PBK has in place a vast database of athletic facilities construction costs. This, combined with our intimate
knowledge of this building type, gives us a special
unique understanding of balancing project design
with the established budget. With our large number
of completed projects, we are able to bring multiple
options for any given design challenge.
Schedule Management Procedures
PBK will provide responsible reporting, documentation,
recommendations, and supervision of the following
services: Preconstruction scheduling, review and
recommendations during the design development
stages from the schematic phase to the completion of
working drawings, conceptual and periodic estimates,
budget assessment and cost containment advice, and
value engineering studies and recommendations.
PBK will develop a Project Schedule which will contain
key milestones to be accomplished by the project
participants, including a schedule of the Architect"s and Consultants' design activities. Our team is familiar with all scheduling software programs such as Primavera
P3, Suretrack, and MS Project.
Prioritizing to Meet Budgets
One of the critical challenges is prioritizing the ··needs'· versus the ··wants."' Unfortunately, there is usually more desire by the site committee than the budget will allow, so we facilitate a process to determine what is included in the scope of the project. We will work closely with
the City to develop a list of what has to be in the project.
Based on the remaining available budget, we can
assist the City in ranking the most important items and determine which of those ··wants·· are included in the
scope. Often, in a competitive bidding environment, we
will create additive alternates to try and capture more of the ··wants·· if the bid comes in low.

Scope of Work
A. DESIGN TEAM METHODOLOGY
Our firm consistently utilizes a Design Team approach
for establishing project delivery and control during all phases of planning and design. The primary contact will be our Principal-in-Charge, Bruce Ou. The Principalin-Charge will be responsible for coordinating our in-house architectural team and our consultant team.
The Team remains with the project from concept
through completion. Therefore, continuity of the project participants and of the process is achieved. The Design Team shall produce all necessary reports, studies,
drawings, models, renderings, and cost estimates, and
shall perform all necessary administrative, management, and coordination services throughout the entire course of the project.
B. SCOPE OF WORK
In addition to the items listed in the RFP, the following is a list of the basic tasks and deliverables anticipated for your new project. The scope has been divided into the five phases typically associated with architectural services:
1. SCHEMATIC DESIGN - PHASE 1
The first and perhaps most important task during
the Schematic Design Phase will be to establish and
determine the best approach to the design of the primary systems in the project. The architectural program shall be developed. Alternative configurations shall be quickly explored in order to evaluate the best opportunities. A design concept shall be formulated in order to provide
a sound basis for subsequent planning and design
decisions to occur. The design concept shall be utilized to evaluate advantages and disadvantages of each
potential alternative. Site and programmatic factors,
aesthetic quality, cost, and other key factors related to the project shall be utilized in order to form the basis of an evaluation. Through a variety of informal meetings
with the project committee, a schematic design concept
shall be established.
During the Schematic Design Phase for your project, the following tasks and deliverables have been identified:
a. Master Site Plan
A master site plan shall be prepared in order to
describe all major site components and to illustrate
the overall site planning concept for the project. All
structures, parking areas, and circulation components
shall be identified. Areas of future expansion and/or
future phasing shall also be defined.
b. Preliminary Landscape Plan
A preliminary landscape plan shall be prepared in
order to illustrate proposed planting, landscaping
techniques, and design concepts. Drought resistant,
low maintenance, and xeriscape techniques shall be
defined. A preliminary plant palette, identifying major tree and shrub species, shall be included.
c. Preliminary Floor Plans
A preliminary floor plan of each level for every structure proposed shall be prepared.
d. Exterior Elevations
Exterior elevations shall be prepared to illustrate all major views of the project. Elevations shall be drawn
to depict scale, character, architectural vocabulary,
and shall be delineated to communicate the aesthetic
qualities of the project.
e. Schematic Design Opinion of Cost
A preliminary opinion of construction costs shall be prepared and included with the summary report.
f. Project Schedule
A comprehensive project schedule shall be prepared. The project schedule shall include anticipated time frames for each phase of the project as well as any other milestones required by the City.
2. DESIGN DEVELOPMENT - PHASE 2
After completion of the Schematic Design Phase, the
design of the project shall be advanced into more detailed refinement by initiating the Design Development Phase. Our Design Team shall prepare design development documents
consisting of drawings, outline specifications, design calculations, material/equipment submittals, fixture cuts, and a design development opinion of estimated construction cost. Architectural, structural, electrical, and mechanical systems shall be further detailed and analyzed. Preliminary drawings shall be prepared for each of these systems, and options which may exist shall be evaluated.
During the Design Development Phase, requirements for cabinets, casework, hardware, and related specialties shall be determined.
A preliminary furniture plan shall be prepared indicating usage and furniture layout of every work station, office, and support space. Final selection of materials, textures, and colors shall occur. The Design Development Phase is essentially the time when preliminary design proposals are refined to a level of detail and developed to a state such that final construction documents can be initiated. The Design Development Phase is the time when all final decisions pertaining to the proposed project are evaluated and finalized.
During the Design Development Phase, the following tasks and deliverables have been identified:
a. Design Development Plans
Design development drawings shall be prepared in order to fix and describe the size and character of the entire project including architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical design features.
b. Outline Specifications
Outline specifications shall be prepared in order to identify and define the materials and system components selected for the project. Outline specifications shall be prepared in
summary outline form based on CSI format.
c. Basis of Design
A technical manual shall be assembled to organize
product literature and data for all materials, equipment, and fixtures selected for the project.
d. Building Code Analysis
Drawings, diagrams, and calculations shall be prepared
based upon all applicable building codes having
jurisdiction over the project. A preliminary occupancy
and exiting plan shall be prepared to identify the type of construction, type of occupancy, required fire rating/ separation, and location/number of exits required.
e. Design Development Opinion of Cost
An opinion of construction cost shall be prepared to
reflect the scope and anticipated construction costs as reflected by the design development documents.
f. Project Schedule
An updated project schedule shall be prepared and
submitted.
3. CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENT- PHASE 3
The final Construction Document Phase of the project
generally consists of the preparation of the construction documents to include final drawings, specifications,
calculations, and final cost estimates. Our proposal
includes complete and comprehensive architectural
and engineering services required to execute the entire project. Specifically, we have included the following
disciplines:
1) Architectural
2) Civil Engineering
3) Structural Engineering
4) Mechanical Engineering
5) Electrical Engineering

29 are defined, and when combined with the various trade specifications, a complete project manual is produced.
During the Construction Document Phase, final
cost studies shall be prepared. A detailed opinion of
construction cost shall be prepared at the point where
final plans and specifications are approximately 50%
complete. Once construction documents have almost been
completed, a revised opinion of cost shall be prepared
at the level of approximately 90% completion. Allowable construction costs will be consistently monitored during the entire process in order to minimize the possibility of requiring major refinement or modification due to
budgetary limits.
The following tasks are specifically proposed for the
project:
a. Construction Drawings
Final construction drawings shall be prepared in order
to describe and identify the spaces, sizes, volume, and location in detail for the construction of the project. b. Project Manual

trade sections for the project. The project manual
provides detailed technical information pertaining to the administration of the contract for construction, materials and equipment to be furnished, acceptable manufacturers, and the requirements for executing the work.
c. Final Design Calculations
Final design calculations shall be prepared and submitted with the final plans and specifications for review and
approval by governing agencies having jurisdiction over the project. Structural calculations, hydrology/drainage calculations, and mechanical/electrical !Title 24 Energy Compliance) shall be completed during this phase.
d. Opinion of Cost
A detailed opinion of construction costs shall be
prepared at the point where plans and specifications
are approximately 50% complete. A second cost opinion
shall be prepared at the 90% completion point in order to address any refinement or modification occurring during the preparation of the construction documents. The cost opinion shall be prepared utilizing specific area and
quantity take-offs applied to labor and material cost, and shall include allowance for general conditions, Contractor's profit and overhead, and contingencies.
e. Final Plan Check
All final plans, specifications, and supporting calculations shall be submitted to appropriate agencies having
jurisdiction over the project. The final construction
documents shall be revised and amended in order to reflect any plan check requirements, and at this time, construction documents will be ready for competitive bidding.
4. BIDDING AND NEGOTIATION - PHASE 4
During the Bidding Phase, the Architect shall provide
administrative support services to assist the City in
obtaining competitive bids for the proposed project. The Architect shall respond to any questions, clarifications, or conflicts which may arise in the form of written
addenda to the contract documents. At this time, requests for substitutions may be considered if allowed by the

WHY PBK?
"PBK was a fantastic firm to work with.
They listened to every word I had to say
and delivered the perfect design on the
first try - which was exactly what I was
looking for."
Curt Klafta, Battalion Chief
Los Angeles Fire Department
"PBK has been flexible yet succinct in
moving our project forward. We had
to break out a section of the building
rehabilitation and construct early due
to mold issues and PBK delivered. Most
RFl's and Submittals for the breakout
project have been reviewed same day
or within 2 days at the latest to get
construction started."
Brian Reed, City Engineer

CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: August 23, 2022
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF FIRST AMENDMENT EXTENDING AND AMENDING
THE CONTRACT WITH ATLAS PLANNING SOLUTIONS FOR THE
PREPARATION OF A LOCAL HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN
REPORT IN BRIEF:
Atlas Planning Solutions has been providing consulting services for the preparation of a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP). The LHMP is currently in the review and revision process required by federal and state law. The professional services agreement expired on June 30, 2022. If approved, this First Amendment will extend the term of the agreement through June 30, 2023.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council declare that this item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(3) and 15378(b)(5); and
2. Approve the First Amendment to the existing agreement with Atlas Planning Solutions and allow the City Attorney to make minor edits as necessary prior to the execution of the Amendment; and
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute the First Amendment to the existing agreement with Atlas Planning Solutions.
BACKGROUND:
The Federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA) establishes requirements for state and local entities to prepare and maintain a comprehensive LHMP. The purpose of an LHMP is to identify a jurisdiction’s hazards, review and assess past disaster occurrences, estimate the probability of future occurrences, and set goals to mitigate potential risks to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property from natural and man-made hazards. In addition, an LHMP approved by the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is required in order for jurisdictions to be eligible for pre- and post-disaster mitigation grants. Implementation of an updated LHMP will allow the City to address natural hazards proactively and promote community resilience.
Item 6H
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 On April 13, 2021, the City entered into an Agreement for Consultant Services with Atlas Planning Solutions for the preparation of an LHMP (Agreement).
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
In a competitive bid process where proposals were solicited from consulting firms who specialize in emergency preparedness and hazard mitigation planning, Atlas Planning Solutions was the only firm that submitted a proposal. Their scope of work includes, but is not limited to, all of the following:
• Planning, resource assessment, and community outreach • Community capabilities analysis and risk assessment
• Mitigation actions and strategy development
• Drafting of an LHMP
• Incorporation of comments from the public, Cal OES, and FEMA into a revised, final LHMP
The original term of the Agreement expired on June 30, 2022. Although the consultant has completed the draft LHMP, the consultant is still working with staff through the review and revision process to ensure the LHMP is approved by Cal OES and FEMA.
Consequently, an amendment is needed to extend the term of the Agreement.
Additionally, this First Amendment makes minor clarifications to the payment schedule, termination, and assignment restriction sections of the Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. The amendment does not change the not-to-exceed amount of Fifty-Nine Thousand Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($59,250) in the original Agreement. The City obtained a grant for $37,500 in 2020 from Cal OES to create an LHMP. As the grant required a 25% cost share, the Council authorized an appropriation of $22,000 from the General Fund at its April 13, 2021, meeting (Account No. 101-1520-608105). Atlas Planning Solutions has been paid $55,075 for services provided through June 30, 2022.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
None. This item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, as it is an organizational or administrative activity of government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment).
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney’s office has reviewed the First Amendment to the Agreement. 3 STRATEGIC PLAN OBJECTIVE(S) ADDRESSED:
1. Provide a safe community.
3. Provide a quality infrastructure.
4. Ensure fiscal stability and efficiency in governance.
6. Maintain and promote a responsive, high-quality, and transparent government.
PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:
Public notice for this item was made through the regular agenda process.

Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.
2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing.

6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage ( e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City's protection without City' s prior written consent.

10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant.

C; O,
13 f

15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.

20. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent . that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section.

Dear Mr. Rigg,
The City of Stanton is taking the opportunity to prepare a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan ( LHMP), which allows the City to address natural hazards proactively. These plans have proven to be a successful approach for many other Orange County communities that we have supported in the past. Knowing the challenges that cities face with limited budgets, reduced staffing, and limited resources to accomplish the same functions they have historically provided, an LHMP is a great way to leverage Federal grant funding sources and effect change within the community. The Atlas Planning Solutions APS) team understands the challenges Stanton faces and offers the following benefits to the City:
Understanding Regional Issues and Local Context — our team has completed several hazard mitigation plans for many Orange County communities and communities with similar issues as Stanton. Aaron Pfannenstiel has managed or is currently managing the preparation of LHMPs for the cities of Irvine, Huntington Beach, Costa Mesa, Laguna Beach, Seal Beach, La Palma, Westminster, and Fullerton. These projects have established strong working relationships with many of the Planning and Emergency Management personnel throughout Orange County, ensuring a solid understanding of regional and local issues that face Stanton.
Developing Meaningful Content — In our experience, LHMP documents can be extremely meaningful if prepared the right way. Understanding this, the APS team focuses on preparing the right document for the right audience and ensuring that it is easily understood and shared. FEMA guidance identifies the basic requirements of a plan; however, we have found that meeting that guidance requires creativity and thoughtfulness to ensure that it also speaks to the community. APS staffs previous plans have received awards from the Orange Section of the American Planning Association and have been recognized as a best practice example in California's State Hazard Mitigation Plan.
Understanding of the Scope of Services — The Atlas Planning Solutions team has reviewed the scope of services identified in the RFP and understands the City's request.
The tasks identified in the scope are generally in conformance with the typical process undertaken by our team, and over the past 10 years we have worked closely with our clients to achieve successful outcomes during the hazard mitigation planning process.
The team presented in this proposal is ready to start this project immediately. These professionals are well -versed in the necessary tasks to promptly start the City's LHMP and ensure that the project starts quickly and efficiently.
As part of our approach with many of the other jurisdictions within Orange County, the APS team has found numerous opportunities to integrate the LHMP into other existing documents like the City's Emergency Operations Plan and General Plan Safety Element. These past efforts have helped the City of Stanton
Emergency Management and Community Development
Departments ensure their respective plans are up to date, comply with recent changes to legislation, and integrate fully with one another. If desired, the APS team can provide these additional services as optional tasks to fully integrate the LHMP into the City's planning framework.
With nearly 20 years of experience, Mr. Aaron Pfannenstiel will serve as the project manager and the City's primary contact for this project.
As outlined in the RFP, APS acknowledges the full scope of work and services to be provided, and as a firm principal, Aaron Pfannenstiel is authorized to bind the team to the contents of this submittal.
Respectfully submitted,
Aaron Pfannenstie

The following projects represent current and prior work efforts of Atlas Planning staff., 2021 City of Costa Mesa LHMP I City of Costa Mesa
Atlas Planning Solutions is currently preparing the City of Costa Mesa Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.
This project involves the development of a new plan for the City that identifies key hazards of concern, which include, seismic hazards, flooding, severe weather, and human -caused hazards ( civil unrest, terrorism). This process is currently being conducted virtually, which has allowed the City to continue focusing on necessary Covid- 19 response activities while plan development is underway. 2020 City of Irvine LHMP Update I City of Irvine
Atlas Planning Solutions prepared the 2020 update of the City of Irvine LHMP. This update focused on refreshing the plan, last updated in 2005, and ensuring it met all of the new FEMA requirements introduced in 2011. As part of the update, the APS team had to navigate the changing conditions associated with COVID- 19 restrictions and demands on staff time and capacity. The update of the plan occurred with minimal comments from Cal OES and received FEMA approval without comment. 2019 Seal Beach Local Hazard Mitigation Plan I City of Seal Beach Before starting Atlas Planning Solutions, Mr. Pfannenstiel managed the City of Seal Beach's first Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. This project used hazard mitigation grants funding to address key hazards within the City that include fault rupture, flooding, tsunami, and urban fire, Mr. Pfannenstiel helped the City facilitate several community meetings, and develop new policies for emergency preparedness and financial management in preparation for disasters. This plan was approved by both Cal DES and FEMA with minimal comments and revisions necessary.
2019 Fullerton Local Hazard Mitigation Plan I City of Fullerton Before starting Atlas Planning Solutions, Mr. Pfannenstiel managed the City of Fullerton's Local Hazard Mitigation Plan update. Previously adopted in 2012, the City could not secure hazard mitigation grants funding until this plan was updated. Mr. Pfannenstiel helped the City update its plan to ensure future access to hazard mitigation funding initiated in April 2018. The City released a draft copy for public review and comment in March 2019 and was approved by FEMA in summer 2019. 2018 Laguna Beach Local Hazard Mitigation Plan, Safety Element Assistance, and Emergency Operations Plan Update I City of Laguna Beach
Before starting Atlas Planning Solutions, Mr. Pfannenstiel assisted the City with preparing its first LHMP, updating its general plan safety element, and a focused update to their Emergency Operations Plan. Critical issues for this community included wildfire ( numerous incidents have impacted the community over the years), flooding, and landslides. During the hazard mitigation planning process, significant community outreach included social media outreach (via Facebook, Twitter, and Nextdoor), interactive and informative community workshops, and an online survey that gathered information from over 100 respondents. As part of this effort, the City's 1995 General Plan Safety Element was reviewed, and recommendations were provided to ensure compliance with changes to the Government Code (SB 1241, SB 379, AB 2140).
2017/2012 Huntington Beach Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Update I City of Huntington Beach Before starting Atlas Planning Solutions, Mr. Pfannenstiel updated the City's 2012 and 2017 LHMPs.
These updates included a review of city plans and policies, identification of facilities necessary to city PAGE 13
City of Stanton March 22, 2021
operation, prioritization of hazards, preparation of hazard profiles, preparation of a risk assessment, and updated mitigation actions to reduce potential future vulnerabilities. The process included facilitating meetings with city department personnel and various stakeholders and coordinating with city staff to ensure that the appropriate focus and direction were used to complete the document. Final review of the plan by Cal OES and FEMA Region IX resulted in minimal comments and revisions.
During the 2017 update, Aaron Pfannenstiel was also the assistant project manager for the City's comprehensive general plan update and was able to integrate the LHMP in a meaningful way that further reinforces hazards policy and implementation throughout the City.

CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: August 23, 2022
SUBJECT: LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT WITH CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR IMPROVEMENTS
ADJACENT TO 12200 BEACH BOULEVARD
REPORT IN BRIEF:
The development of the property at 12200 Beach Boulevard (Bonanni Development’s Bigsby Townhome Project) will include landscaping in a future parkway area along Beach Boulevard. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) owns the right-of-way where the landscaping will be placed and the parkway area will be created. They are requiring the City enter into an agreement to maintain this landscaping in the event it is not properly maintained by the adjacent property owner (“Caltrans Landscape Maintenance Agreement”). To protect the City’s interests, City staff recommends a companion City Landscape Maintenance Agreement transferring landscape maintenance responsibility from the City to the adjoining property owner.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council declare that the project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Class 1, Section 15301(h) as maintenance of existing landscaping; and
2. Approve the Caltrans Landscape Maintenance Agreement, subject to revisions deemed necessary by the City Attorney and the Public Works Director, to maintain the landscape improvements in the public right-of-way on Beach Boulevard; and
3. Authorize the Mayor and City Manager to bind the City of Stanton and Caltrans in said agreement; and
4. Authorize the City Manager to bind the City of Stanton and the developer in a companion City Landscape Maintenance Agreement, subject to revisions deemed necessary by the City Attorney and the Public Works Director, to transfer landscape maintenance responsibility from the City to the adjoining property owner.
Item: 6I
Click here to return to the agenda.
BACKGROUND:
The Livable Beach Boulevard Mobility Plan, adopted by City Council Resolution in 2010, requires landscape and transportation-related improvements for new development projects along Beach Boulevard. As such, since 2010, Public Works and Community Development staff have provided project applicants with conditions of approval consistent with the Plan, requiring beautification of the street with new landscaping and the provision of a parkway area to accommodate landscaping where none currently exist.
As Beach Boulevard is State right-of-way, project applicants are required to procure an encroachment permit from Caltrans prior to any work being conducted. As part of Caltrans procedure and to protect their interests, they require that the City enter into an agreement to maintain said landscaping in the event it is not properly maintained by the adjacent property owner.
Council has previously entered into similar landscape maintenance agreements with Caltrans for the following projects:
• At its meeting of November 24, 2020, for 12736 Beach Boulevard (Bonanni Development’s VRV Project); and
• At its meeting of April 12, 2022, for 11752 Beach Boulevard (17 unit townhome project).

FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Class 1, Section 15301(h) as maintenance of existing landscaping.

RE: Statement of Self Insurance for 12200 Beach Boulevard Related to the Landscape Maintenance Agreement with State of California Department of Transportation (“STATE”) for parkway landscaping along Highway 39 at Postmile ORA 9.453 Dear Ms. Rodriguez:
The purpose of this letter is to certify that the CITY is self-insured and self-funded covering third-party claims arising out of its general operations (for example, commercial general liability and automobile liability insurance). Further the CITY is self-insured covering workers’ compensation claims and has received the consent of the State Department of Industrial Relations to do so.
Each fiscal year, as a part of its budgetary process, the CITY appropriates funds specifically to satisfy valid third-party claims and workers’ compensation claims, which may be brought against the CITY.
The CITY certifies its self-insured, general liability coverage for bodily injury liability and property damage liability, meets the required coverage amounts in section 10.1 (INSURANCE) of the Maintenance Agreement, specifically general liability insurance, coverage of bodily injury liability and property damage liability in an amount of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in aggregate and $5 million in excess. The CITY further represents that regarding any claims made in connection with the Maintenance Agreement by the STATE, the STATE will be first-in-line regarding the reserved, selfinsured amounts.
If you need any additional information regarding this letter, please direct those inquires through my office.
Sincerely,
Cynthia Guzman
Human Resources & Risk Manager

Exhibit D: Insurance Requirements
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of this Agreement, Developer will maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Developer will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. Developer acknowledges that the insurance coverage and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage required.
Any insurance proceeds available to City in excess of the limits and coverage required in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, will be available to City.
Developer shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
1. Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office “Commercial General Liability” policy form CG 00 01 or equivalent. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another. Limits are subject to review but in no event less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.
2. Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 including symbol 1 (Any Auto) or equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no event to be less than $1,000,000 per accident. If Developer owns no vehicles, this requirement may be satisfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability policy described above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Developer shall not be required to obtain Business Auto Coverage insurance or provide evidence of a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability policy described above unless and until the earlier of (i) the date Developer has at least one (1) employee, or (ii) the date an officer of Developer performs any services required by Developer pursuant to the terms of the Agreement; provided, however, Developer shall require its subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Developer to provide the insurance coverage required pursuant to this Paragraph 2 in accordance with the requirements set forth in Paragraph 10 of the General Conditions herein below.
3. Workers Compensation on a state-approved policy form providing statutory benefits as required by law with employer’s liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or disease.

D-2
General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Developer. Developer and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Developer:
1. Developer agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 20 10 or its equivalent. Developer also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. In addition, Developer agrees to require its General Contractor to have the General Contractor’s insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 20 37 or its equivalent.
2. No liability insurance coverage obtained to comply with the requirements of this Agreement shall prohibit Developer, or Developer’s employees or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss, if any, that arises from, is associated with or is pursuant to this Agreement. Developer agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds which may be obtained by Developer under liability insurance coverages required to be obtained by Developer hereunder, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Developer and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage.
4. None of the coverages required to be obtained hereunder will be in compliance with the coverage requirements provided for herein if they include any limiting endorsement which would render any coverage obtained by Developer to fall below the minimum requirements described herein, or which has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing.
5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor.
6. Developer shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent.
7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Developer’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium.

premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Developer or deducted from sums due Developer, at City option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days’ notice to City of any cancellation of coverage, except in the event that such cancellation of coverage is a result of the non-payment of premiums in which event the insurer shall provide 10 days’ notice to City of any notice of cancellation of coverage for such non-payment of premiums.
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Developer or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City.
10. Developer agrees to require that all subcontractors and parties, if any, who are retained by Developer to satisfy the obligations of Developer under this Agreement, provide and maintain the same minimum insurance coverage required of Developer hereunder.
Developer agrees to monitor and review all such coverage of its retained subcontractors and third parties, if any, and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided and maintained in conformity with the requirements of this section. Developer agrees that upon request, all agreements with any subcontractor or third party retained to satisfy the obligations of Developer hereunder will be submitted to City for its review to ensure the requirements of this Section 10 are complied with.
11. Developer agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, architect, engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this Agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Developer’s existing coverage includes a deductible or selfinsured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Developer.
12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Developer ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in additional cost to the Developer, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increase in costs from the changes in the amounts or types of insurance required by the City.
13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.
14. Developer acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Developer of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
D-4
15. Developer will renew the required coverage annually as long as this Agreement has not been canceled or terminated and in the event this Agreement is cancelled or terminated by the City, Developer will renew the required coverages for a period of two (2) years from the date of cancellation or termination except with respect to latent defects which Developer will renew the required coverage for four (4) years from the date of cancellation or termination. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.
16. Developer shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Developer’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the coverages.
17. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Developer under this Agreement. Developer expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials and agents.
18. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive.
19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such.
20. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Section.
21. Developer agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Developer for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto.
22. Developer agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Developer arising out of the work performed under this Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.
CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: August 23, 2022
SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF GRANT DEED EASEMENT FOR SANITARY SEWER PURPOSES OVER THE ALLEY AT THE REAR OF 7931 LAMPSON
AVENUE
REPORT IN BRIEF:
The City Engineer recommends that the City Council accept the grant deed easement for sanitary sewer purposes from the Garden Grove Sanitary District located over the alley at the rear of 7931 Lampson Avenue (APN 131-361-12).
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council accept the grant deed easement for sanitary sewer purposes from the Garden Grove Sanitary District; and
2. Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the Certificate of Acceptance for the grant deed easement; and
3. Authorize the City Clerk to submit the grant deed easement for sanitary sewer purposes to the Orange County Clerk-Recorder for recordation; and
4. Declare that the project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15378 and 15060(c)(3) because acceptance of an offer of dedication for an existing facility does not have potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment and is not a project in accordance with CEQA.
BACKGROUND:
During grading and improvement plan checking of the Bonanni Development’s Cloud House Project at 12345 Beach Boulevard and 12435 Beach Boulevard (APNs 131-361- 09 and -10), it was discovered the rear alley connecting the 12345 Beach Boulevard parcel with Lampson Avenue has a sanitary sewer easement over it dedicated to Garden Grove Sanitary District (GGSD). The existing sanitary sewer easement crosses through the rear of 12435 Beach Boulevard (APN 131-361-10) and 7931 Lampson Avenue (APN 131-361-12).
Item: 6J
Click here to return to the agenda.
Bonanni Development’s project civil engineer contacted GGSD regarding sewer plan checking requirements. Upon review of the proposed development plans, GGSD requested that the sanitary sewer easement within the limits of Bonanni Development’s project (APNs 131-361-09 and -10) be quitclaimed to Bonanni Development, and the portion of sanitary sewer easement within the 7931 Lampson Avenue parcel (APN 131- 361-12) be quitclaimed to the City of Stanton because the alley and sewer is within Stanton city limits and GGSD otherwise has no nearby sewer pipelines.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
The sewer pipeline in Lampson Avenue, which accepts sanitary sewer flows from both 12345 and 12435 Beach Boulevard and 7931 Lampson, is owned by the City. Therefore, the proposed sanitary sewer easement quitclaim from GGSD and dedication to the City of Stanton within the 7931 Lampson Avenue parcel is reasonable and meets with the approval of the City Engineer. The proposed actions would make Bonanni Development legally responsible for the repair and maintenance of the portion of the sanitary sewer line within its property (12345 Beach Boulevard and 12435 Beach Boulevard) and would make the City of Stanton legally responsible for the repair and maintenance of the portion of the sanitary sewer line within the 7931 Lampson Avenue parcel. However, the 2012 Sewer Master Plan already identified this section of sanitary sewer pipeline as being owned and maintained by the City of Stanton.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Sections 15378 and 15060(c)(3) because acceptance of an offer of dedication for an existing facility does not have potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment and is not a project in accordance with CEQA.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The staff report, grant deed easement, and certificate of acceptance have been reviewed by the City Attorney.

1 CITY OF STANTON
REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: August 23, 2022
SUBJECT: RENEWAL OF AUTHORIZATION FOR VIRTUAL PUBLIC MEETINGS PURSUANT TO AB 361
REPORT IN BRIEF:
Consideration of the circumstances of the state of emergency related to the COVID-19 pandemic to determine whether remote teleconference meetings of the City Council, Committees, and Commissions can continue to be held under the provisions of AB 361.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council declare that this item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3); and
2. Reconsider the circumstances of the state of emergency; and
3. Find that state or local officials have continued to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing; and
4. Direct staff, no later than 30 days after the City Council approves the recommended action, to report back on the state-proclaimed state of emergency so that City Council may reconsider the circumstances of the emergency, and, if appropriate, make findings to continue to hold virtual meetings of City legislative bodies pursuant to AB 361.
BACKGROUND:
On October 26, 2021, City Council adopted Resolution 2021-34, which authorized City Staff to conduct remote teleconference meetings of the City Council, Committees, and Commissions under the provisions of AB 361 (in effect as of October 1, 2021 – Government Code Section 54953(e)). Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(e)(3), the City Council is required every thirty (30) days to reconsider the circumstances of the state of emergency and determine whether:
Item: 6K

2 • The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or
• State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.
If neither of the two finding options can be made by majority vote, the City Council, Committees, and Commissions will no longer be able to continue holding public meetings by teleconference without compliance to the Ralph M. Brown Act’s Section 54953(b)(3).
Section 54953(b)(3) imposes notice and access requirements for public meetings conducted via teleconference. Such requirements include identifying in the meeting notice and agenda the teleconference location of each member of the legislative body participating in the meeting and ensuring that each teleconference location be accessible to the public.
It is important to note that having virtual meetings under the provisions of Government Code Section 54953(e)(3) is optional. If the Council wishes, it may continue to meet inperson. In addition, hybrid meetings are permissible. Given that the dynamics of the pandemic and the health crisis are continually changing, the intent of the attached Resolution is to, among other things, allow for the City’s Council, Commissions, and Committees to meet virtually in the event of illness, quarantine, or other government measures. If the Council will meet only or partially in-person, it should ensure compliance with the Orange County Health Care Agency’s recommendations for local public meetings.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
Currently, the State of California and the County of Orange remain under the state of emergency brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly with the spread of the Omicron BA.5 Variant. State and local officials are still recommending measures to promote social distancing. and the wearing of face masks. 3 COVID-19 Cases by City
