9D. EXTEND THE CITY’S DEADLINE TO ESTABLISH ONLINE PERMITTING SYSTEM IN COMPLIANCE WITH ASSEMBLY BILL 2234 (AB 2234)
California Assembly Bill 2234 established several requirements for the review and processing of post-entitlement permit applications. “Post-entitlement” refers to any project that required a public hearing before the Planning Commission to obtain approval of a development before seeking permits to begin construction. One requirement established by this bill was the implementation of an online permitting system. The City’s current permitting system does not have the capability to issue permits online and there is no cost-effective way to alter the existing system to comply with this requirement. As a result, staff is seeking to extend the deadline for compliance with this requirement to January 1, 2026 as allowed under the Joint Regular Meeting – November 28, 2023 - Page 4 of 14 provisions of AB 2234. The extension will allow staff to complete a procurement process so that a compliant and cost-effective online permitting system can be acquired.
1. The City Council declared that the project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under Section 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3); and
2. Adopted Resolution No. 2023-29, which will extend the City’s deadline to establish an online permitting system for post-entitlement phase permits to January 1, 2026, entitled:
“A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY STANTON,
CALIFORNIA EXTENDING THE DEADLINE TO ESTABLISH AN
ONLINE PERMITTING SYSTEM FOR POST-ENTITLEMENT PHASE
PERMITS UNDER CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION
65913.3.5 (AB 2234).”
9E. AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE STANTON CENTRAL PARK SHADE STRUCTURE INSTALLATION PROJECT (TASK CODE NO. 2022- 205)
Two bids for the Stanton Central Park Shade Structure Installation Project were opened on October 31, 2023. Based on the post-bid analysis of the bids received, staff has determined the bid submitted by R.E. Schultz Construction, Inc. to be the lowest responsible and responsive bid at $42,950.
1. The City Council declared this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), Class 1, Section 15301 as a minor exterior alteration of an existing public facility and Class 3, Section 15303 as construction of an accessory structure; and

Joint Regular Meeting – November 28, 2023 - Page 5 of 14 9F. AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE CERRITOS AVENUE
RESURFACING PROJECT AND APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS
Seven bids for the Cerritos Avenue Resurfacing Project were opened on October 31, 2023. Based on the post-bid analysis of the bids received, staff has determined the bid submitted by Hardy & Harper, Inc. to be the lowest responsible and responsive bid at $854,000.
Including construction costs, a 10% contingency, and inspection costs, the total project is estimated at $960,000. The current project budget is $930,000. This project was to be partially funded by the 2021 Pavement Management Relief Funding (PMRF) Program in the amount of $200,000. Staff submitted the necessary documents to Caltrans required to secure funding. Unfortunately, due to the debt ceiling compromise earlier this year, PMRF Program funding that did not get obligated by Caltrans at that time was subject to rescission. As such, approximately 24 Orange County local agencies were not able to secure the PMRF Program funds as well. Staff is requesting an appropriation of $200,000 from the City’s Gas Tax Fund (Fund #210) and $30,000 from the RMRA Fund (#215) to fund the remainder of the project costs.
1. The City Council declared that this project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”), Class 1, Section 15301(c) as repair, maintenance, and minor alteration of existing public structures; and
2. Awarded a construction contract for the Cerritos Avenue Resurfacing Project to Hardy & Harper, Inc. for the bid amount of $854,000 and rejected all other bids; and

5. Eliminated the $200,000 appropriation from the Other Grants Fund (#227) for the withdrawn grant funding; and
6. Appropriated a total of $200,000 from the Gas Tax Fund (#211) and $30,000 from the RMRA Fund (#215) to increase the Cerritos Avenue Resurfacing Project (Task Code No. 2024-104) budget to $960,000.
Joint Regular Meeting – November 28, 2023 - Page 6 of 14 9G. AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE STANFORD AVENUE STORM DRAIN REPAIR PROJECT (TASK CODE NO. 2024-802)
The Open-Market Bid (AKA Informal Bid) process is being used for this public project. Three (3) proposals for the Stanford Avenue Storm Drain Repair Project were received to repair the storm drain lines at Beach Boulevard and Stanford Avenue. Based on the lowest proposal received, staff recommends a construction contract to be awarded to Tunnelworks Services, Inc., in the amount of $47,867.50.

9H. THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL
CONSULTING SERVICES WITH WILLDAN FINANCIAL SERVICES FOR THE
PREPARATION OF AN OVERHEAD COST ALLOCATION PLAN AND
COMPREHENSIVE USER FEE STUDY
The City Council will consider approving the Third Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with Willdan Financial Services (“Willdan”) for the preparation of an overhead cost allocation plan and comprehensive user fee study. The Third Amendment increases the total not-to-exceed compensation amount by $5,200 from $34,680 to $39,880 (Attachment A). Willdan’s original Agreement was approved by the City Council on January 12, 2021. Willdan used the City’s Fiscal Year 2021/22 Adopted Budget to complete the overhead cost allocation plan and the City’s estimated actual cost for services to calculate appropriate user fees. Due to the delay in completing the project based upon staff turnover, staff recommends updating the calculations to reflect the City’s Fiscal Year 2023/24 Adopted Budget. The cost to update is $5,200.
1. The City Council finds that this item is not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) (Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment); and
