REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: May 12, 2026
SUBJECT: AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO EMPIRE PIPE CLEANING AND EQUIPMENT, INC. FOR SANITARY SEWER AND

STORM DRAIN CLEANING SERVICES FOR THE CITY OF STANTON
REPORT IN BRIEF:

As the current contract is set to expire on June 30, 2026, City staff released a Request for Proposal (RFP) soliciting proposals to provide sewer and storm drain cleaning services citywide. Following review and evaluation of seven proposals, staff recommends awarding a Professional Services Agreement to Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. for professional sanitary sewer and storm drain cleaning services.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

1. City Council declare this project to be categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Class 1, Section 15301(b) as maintenance of existing public utilities; and

2. Award a professional service agreement to Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. to provide professional sewer and storm drain cleaning services for three years in the amount not-to-exceed $1,260,000 or $420,000 annually; and

3. Authorize the City Manager to bind the City of Stanton and Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. in a contract to provide the services.

BACKGROUND:

The City is responsible for maintaining 270,000 linear feet of sewer pipes and 186 catch basins throughout the City. Routine maintenance is necessary to prevent sewer overflows and/or flooding. In addition, under the City’s NPDES permit, the City is required to clean all the catch basins once a year. Occasionally, on-call emergency services are necessary, examples include using CCTV to assess the condition of storm drain pipes after a fire, sanitary sewer overflows, sewer point repairs, and other items which are covered in the proposed agreement.

Item: 9N
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:

A Request for Proposals was issued on March 5, 2026 with a proposal due date of April 8, 2026. Seven firms provided proposals: ASAP Construction, Inc., Downstream Services, Inc., Empire Pipe Cleaning & Equipment, Inc., Mattucci Plumbing, Inc., Pipe Tec, Inc., Sewer Stormers, and Sewer Tech Corp.

An internal City review committee consisting of the Principal Civil Engineer, Facilities Maintenance Supervisor, and Senior Public Works Inspector evaluated the proposals.

Based on a total possible score of 100 points, the review committee established their scoring and ranking on criteria that included past performance record, approach to work, and cost control. The contractors were ranked as follows:

Rank Contractor Fee Proposal*
1 Empire Pipe Cleaning and
Equipment, Inc $ 395,762.30
2 Downstream Services, Inc. $ 663,685.00
3 Pipe Tec, Inc. $ 783,080.00
4 Sewer Tech Corp $ 485,632.00
5 Mattucci Plumbing, Inc. $ 1,121,452.42**
6 Sewer Stormers $ 495,580.00
7 ASAP Construction, Inc. $ 821,329.80
*The fee proposal amount is based on annual routine maintenance costs for sewer and storm drain cleaning services.
**The fee proposal submittal had clerical error(s) regarding their line items, so their fee proposal amount is based on the sum of their submitted item cost.

Per the City’s Purchasing and Contracting Guidelines, proposals must be evaluated using the Qualification-Based Selection process in accordance with Public Law 92-582, which requires that the selection of professional services be based on demonstrated competence and the professional qualifications necessary for the satisfactory performance of the services at a fair and reasonable price.

Based on the results of the RFP process, Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. demonstrates competence through their proposal and are qualified to provide professional sewer and storm drain cleaning services. In addition, Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. has served the City in a similar capacity before. Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. has successfully provided similar services to other agencies such as the Garden Grove Sanitary District, Los Angeles County Department Public Works Sewer Maintenance Division, and Midway City Sanitary District.

Staff recommends entering into a three (3) year professional services agreement with two (2) optional one-year extensions with Empire Pipe Cleaning and Equipment, Inc. in the amount not-to-exceed $1,260,000 or $420,000 annually. Due to unforeseen on-call emergency services, a healthy contingency has been included in this contract. However, this does not mean all the contingency will be used if it is not needed. This contract encompasses routine maintenance as well as on-call emergency services. 3 FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2026-27 Operating Budget will include costs for these services: Account No. 101-3600-606100 for catch basin maintenance services and Account No. 501-3700- 608135 for the sewer maintenance services. All future year contract costs will be included as part of the annual budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

The project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Class 1, Section 15301(b) as maintenance of existing public utilities.

LEGAL REVIEW:

None.

Care shall be exercised in the selection and use of the cleaning tools to avoid pipe damage. The Service Provider shall be responsible for all costs of repairs and/or clean up to City owned or private property to the City's satisfaction. Use of a nozzle skid is required to prevent accidental entry of nozzle into house connections.

Specific locations within the City shall be cleaned with a reduced psi as directed by the City designated representative(s) in order to avoid damage to private property.

Reduced psi methods will not absolve the Service Provider from cleaning said locations to the standards required in this RFP.

Sewer Cleaning Procedures

High Frequency: Prior to start of work each fiscal year (July 1 – June 30) the service provider shall hold a "kick-off' meeting with the City’s designated representative(s) to determine the start date and segment sequence of high frequency locations. The Service Provider shall prepare a map showing the proposed cleaning sequence by day of work for discussion at the meeting. No work shall start until the cleaning sequence has been approved by the City. Subsequent proposed revisions to the sequence shall be approved by the City prior to commencement of work.

Routine: Prior to start of work the service provider shall hold a "kick-off' meeting with the City’s designated representative(s) to determine the start date and segment sequence. The Service Provider shall prepare a map showing the proposed cleaning sequence by day of work for discussion at the meeting. No work shall start until the cleaning sequence has been approved by the City. Subsequent proposed revisions to the sequence shall be approved by the City prior to commencement of work.

High Frequency and Routine Cleaning:

The designated sewer line segments will be cleaned using combination high-velocity jet with vacuum removal. The normal cleaning operation shall be to jet from the downstream manhole towards the upstream manhole thereby pulling any debris back to

the downstream manhole. Pullback rate on jetting shall not be greater than 40 feet per minute. If, after the initial cleaning, debris is encountered, the entire run shall be made repeatedly until debris is no longer present. At any sign of significant dirt and gravel the cleaning operation for that pipe shall cease and the City shall be notified of a possible line break.

Once the appropriate traffic control has been placed by the Service Provider, the Service Provider shall wash the upstream manhole with the high-pressure water gun while being cautious not to spray any surrounding vehicles or pedestrians. All manholes, except for inaccessible manholes, shall be washed and any loose debris shall be removed. Evidence of unwashed manholes shall result in re-cleaning of that pipe segment. Any major defects in the manhole or the frame and cover shall be noted and brought to the attention of the City for remedy. No debris from the cleaning work shall be left on the roadway.

The Contractor shall document and inform the City of any inaccessible manholes and any justification as to why the manhole is in accessible.

The equipment shall be capable of removing dirt, grease, roots, grit and other materials and obstructions from the sewer lines and manholes. If cleaning of an entire section cannot be successfully performed from the downstream manhole, the equipment will be set up on the upstream manhole and cleaning will again be attempted. If successful cleaning again cannot be performed or the equipment fails to traverse the entire manhole section, it will be assumed that a major blockage exists and the Service Provider will notify the City representative of this condition immediately for further instructions.

The Service Provider shall be prepared to use root saw tools on the segments to be cleaned as needed. Lines where root sawing is performed shall upon CCTV inspection have no more than one half inch of root stub present. Longer lengths of roots remaining shall result in a repeat root sawing effort at no additional cost to the City. Root cutting shall be part of the unit price for bid items requiring cleaning. No separate payment will be made for root cutting.

For pipeline segments with extremely steep slopes, where the jetter nozzle fails to climb to the upstream manhole the cleaning method shall be to jet from the upstream manhole down slope for washing purposes. Then, jet from the downstream manhole upslope so that the cleaning directions overlap.

Line cleaning sequence cannot be changed such that debris from upstream reaches will be deposited into recently cleaned downstream reaches. If this is found to occur, The Service Provider will re-clean the downstream reaches at no cost to the City.

Material Removed
The Service Provider shall be responsible for the removal of debris from the pipeline and cleaning and/or re-cleaning the pipe wall to the satisfaction of the City. All grit, sludge, dirt, sand, rocks, roots, grease and other solid or semisolid material resulting from the cleaning operation shall be removed at the downstream manhole of the section being cleaned. Passing material from manhole section to manhole section, which may cause line stoppages, shall not be permitted.

Lines shown to contain root balls or other debris that may potentially cause a stoppage, that were reported to have been cleaned, may require an emergency call-out by the Service Provider to remove the debris, at no additional charge to the City. The Service Provider shall respond to the site once contacted within one (1) hour. If unable to be contacted or not able to be on site within the hour response time the City will make other arrangements to clean the area and back charge the Service Provider for all costs incurred.

Catch Basin Cleaning:

The Contractor will be responsible for ensuring each and every catch basin and storm drain inlet located within the City is cleaned once each year. The contractor will be responsible for submitting an inventory of all the catch basins cleaned throughout the City and reporting the inspection and maintenance records prior to processing of payment.

The Contractor will be paid for each catch basin that is cleaned each year. The catch basin cleaning will start in April each year.

Video Inspection:

The City will request any Video Inspections of any lines following the Service Provider’s reports during the routine and high-frequency location cleaning.

The City may request video inspections based on locations with suspected deterioration and/or damage, blockages, anomalies found during cleaning services, capacity issues, etc.

Video Inspection Overview – The Service Provider will furnish all labor, materials, equipment and incidentals necessary for the video inspection of various lengths and sizes of sanitary sewers located throughout the City of Stanton.

Whenever nonremote powered and controlled winches are used to pull the television camera through the line, telephones, radios or other suitable means of communication, will be set up between the two manholes of the section being inspected to ensure that adequate communications exist between the members of the crew.

Service Provider shall have camera cables, power cords, and ancillary equipment capable of recording reaches of up to 1500 feet in one direction.

Video Inspection Procedure – The camera shall be lowered into the manhole and placed into the pipe. The camera cable shall be retracted to remove slack to ensure an accurate footage reading. The cable footage-counter shall be reset to the distance between the centerline of the manhole and the front lens of the camera. The camera shall move through the pipeline in a downstream direction, whenever possible, at a maximum uniform rate of 30 feet per minute for all sewers. The cable footage-counter shall measure the distance between each inspection segment from centerline to

centerline. The counter shall be accurate to less than one percent error over the measured distance.

The camera shall stop at all significant observations to ensure a clear and focused view of the pipe condition. The observations shall also be noted on the inspection report with stationing referenced. These observations shall include, but not be limited to:

Reverse Setup: If during the inspection operation the television camera cannot pass through the entire manhole section (obstruction, etc.), the Service Provider will again set up his equipment in a manner so that the inspection can be performed from the opposite manhole. If the camera again fails to pass through the entire section, the Service Provider will notify the City representative(s) immediately for further instructions. The cost for a reverse set up shall be included in the unit price provided.

Flow Control – The maximum Depth of Flow for video inspections are:
• 6" -10" Pipe 20% of pipe diameter
• 12" - 24" Pipe 25% of pipe diameter
• 27" & up Pipe 30% of pipe diameter
When, after any possible flow diversions have been made, and at low flow hours, the depth of flow is greater than recommended for video inspection, the Service Provider

shall reduce flow by plugging or bypassing the flow. All plugging and/or bypassing shall be previously coordinated with and approved by the City at least 10 working days prior to the start of each job.

ORCO Park In Lieu Fee $ 727,711.00
BACKGROUND:

The Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project will redevelop the 4.3-acre site into a modern community park. The Project entails, among other things, the proposed development of a little league baseball field, lighting poles, two shaded bleachers, two shaded dug outs, a field storage structure, a U-12 soccer field, a multipurpose sports court, a playground, a courtyard amphitheater, shaded picnic areas, fitness equipment, a community garden, a storage building, a park building with restrooms, a new water basin, a new pedestrian bridge, a new perimeter wall on the east and southside of the Project site, new perimeter fencing on the west and northside of the Project site, a utility/emergency entrance, a utility access area, a small and large dog park, and the upgrading of an existing pedestrian bridge.

On June 24, 2025, the City Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act and approved the conceptual site plan for the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project.

On October 28, 2025, the City Council authorized staff to advertise this project for construction and approved the plans and specifications subject to revisions required by the Division of the State Architect, City Engineer and the City Attorney.

At the February 10, 2026, meeting, the City Council rejected all bids and authorized staff to re-advertise the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project.

ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:

The bid opening for this Project following the re-advertising of the notice inviting bids was April 9, 2026. Five (5) bids were received and opened as follows:

Rank Company Base Bid
1 Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc. (1) (2) $ 9,743,684.50 2 Act 1 Construction, Inc. $ 10,835,000.00
3 Environmental Construction, Inc. $ 11,589,787.90
4 RCCI dba Ramirez Company (1) $ 11,737,946.55
5 PUB Construction, Inc. (1) $ 12,609,254.86
(1) The bid submittal had error(s) regarding multiple line items, and so the Total Base Bid shown is calculated based on the unit pricing submitted. (2) The bid submittal is deemed rejected as non-responsive.

A formal bid protest letter was submitted by Act 1 Construction, Inc. on April 10, 2026, alleging that Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc.’s bid is non-responsive on multiple independent grounds.

A letter was issued to Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc. on April 23, 2026, determining that Klassic’s bid is non-responsive and that City staff intends to recommend award to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Act 1 Construction, Inc.

On April 27, 2026, the City received a letter from Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc. protesting the decision from the City. A response letter was issued to Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc. on May 5, 2026, rejecting the protest.

Klassic’s bid was non-responsive because it failed to conform to the Base Bid Schedule as revised by the properly issued addenda. Although Klassic acknowledged the addenda, it submitted a bid using incorrect quantities for several bid items. Because those quantities affected price and bid comparison, the defect was material and could not be treated as a minor irregularity.

The City also could not allow Klassic to correct the bid schedule after bid opening because doing so would permit Klassic to change material bid terms and pricing after seeing the competitive bids provided by other contractors. That would undermine the integrity of the public bidding process. Public Contract Code section 5103 and cases such as Ghilotti Construction Co. v. City of Richmond (1996) 45 Cal.App.4th 897 and Konica Business Machines U.S.A., Inc. v. Regents of University of California (1988) 206 Cal.App.3d 449 support the rule that material bid defects affecting price or bid comparison cannot be cured after bid opening. Therefore, the City properly rejected Klassic’s bid as nonresponsive.

Therefore, Act 1 Construction, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible base bid in the amount of $10,835,000, which is approximately 15 percent above the Engineer’s estimate of $9,430,000. Staff has reviewed the documents submitted and found that Act 1 Construction, Inc., has submitted the lowest bid and is compliant with the contract documents. References were checked with the Cities of Chino, Perris, and Garden Grove.

To provide flexibility given budgetary constraints, the bid documents were structured with a Base Bid Schedule and an Alternate Bid Schedule. The Base Bid Schedule covers the overall construction of the park, while the Alternate Bid Schedule provides unit pricing for the installation of dog park amenities, an extension to the community garden, replacing the easterly perimeter wall with concrete masonry unit and installing additional exterior lighting.

Based on available funding, staff recommends awarding the contract to Act 1 Construction, Inc. for the Base Bid amount of $10,835,000, and including all line items from the Alternate Bid Schedule at a cost of $2,063,397. This brings the total contract value to $12,898,397.

As part of the Project’s environmental clearance under the California Environmental Quality Act, a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) was adopted for the Project to ensure it would avoid potentially significant environmental effects. The City is required to implement the MMRP to ensure that all mitigation measures are carried out during the project. These services may include, but are not limited to, preconstruction avian surveys, archaeological monitoring, paleontological services, and Native American monitoring.

For every construction contract awarded by City Council, City staff is required to return to City Council to accept the improvements, approve the final construction contract amount, and direct the City Council to file a Notice of Completion.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Adopted Fiscal Year 2025/26 Capital Improvement Budget includes a remaining budget of $8,923,447 from Grants (Fund #227) and Park (Fund #310) for this project (Task Code No. 2022-204). The following table presents an estimated breakdown of the overall total project costs excluding design, Division of State Architect (DSA), and miscellaneous support costs of $767,611 that have been expended to date:

Description Amount
Construction (Base Bid Schedule) $ 10,835,000.00
Construction (Alternate Bid Schedule) $ 2,063,397.00
Construction Subtotal $ 12,898,397.00
Contingency 5% $ 644,920.00
Construction Engineering Support $ 100,000.00
Tribal (Kizh Nation) Monitoring $ 81,000.00
DSA Inspector of Record $ 200,000.00
DSA Material Testing $ 225,000.00
Avian Survey, Archaeologist and
Paleontologist Monitoring $ 25,000.00
Labor Compliance Consultant $ 40,000.00
Golden State Water System Improvements $ 300,000.00
Total $ 14,514,317.00
A summary of the costs associated with the project that is being awarded tonight are:

Description Amount
Construction (Base Bid Schedule) $ 10,835,000.00
Construction (Alternate Bid Schedule) $ 2,063,397.00
Construction Subtotal $ 12,898,397.00
Contingency 5% $ 644,920.00
Tribal (Kizh Nation) Monitoring $ 80,480.00
Avian Survey, Archaeologist and
Paleontologist Monitoring $ 25,501.75
Total $ 13,649,298.75
Therefore, staff recommends an appropriation of $5,617,711 from the funding sources listed in the following table. Staff recommends the use of contingency funding reserves for any future funding differences:

NORM ROSS SPORTS PARK IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS:

THAT WHEREAS, the City of Stanton (hereinafter referred to as “City”) has awarded to ____________________, (hereinafter referred to as the “Contractor”) _______________________ an agreement for ______________________________ (hereinafter referred to as the “Project”).

WHEREAS, the work to be performed by the Contractor is more particularly set forth in the Contract Documents for the Project dated ________________, (hereinafter referred to as “Contract Documents”), the terms and conditions of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference; and
WHEREAS, the Contractor is required by said Contract Documents to perform the terms thereof and to furnish a bond for the faithful performance of said Contract Documents.

NOW, THEREFORE, we, _______________, the undersigned Contractor and _____________________________________________ as Surety, a corporation organized and duly authorized to transact business under the laws of the State of California, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the sum of ___________________________ DOLLARS, ($____________), said sum being not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the total amount of the Contract, for which amount well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning; and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including the one-year guarantee of all materials and workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the City, its officers and agents, as stipulated in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship, Surety shall undertake and faithfully fulfill all such obligations. The obligations of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of Contractor remains. Nothing herein shall limit the City’s rights or the Contractor or Surety’s obligations under the Contract, law or equity, including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15.

Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the Contract Documents, the Surety shall remedy the default pursuant to the Contract Documents, or NORM ROSS SPORTS PARK IMPROVEMENT PROJECT CA-6
shall promptly, at the City’s option:
(1) Take over and complete the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents; or
(2) Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the Contract Documents and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, arrange for a Contract between such bidder, the Surety and the City, and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.
(3) Permit the City to complete the Project in any manner consistent with local, California and federal law and make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable. The term “balance of the contract price” as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract Documents.

Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Contractor.

Surety shall not utilize Contractor in completing the Project nor shall Surety accept a bid from Contractor for completion of the Project if the City, when declaring the Contractor in default, notifies Surety of the City’s objection to Contractor’s further participation in the completion of the Project.

The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project, including but not limited to the provisions of sections 2819 and 2845 of the California Civil Code.

Attn: Don Trenholm, President
Re: Response to Bid Protest – Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project Dear Mr. Trenholm,
The City of Stanton (“City”) is in receipt of Act 1 Construction, Inc.’s April 10, 2026 bid protest (“Protest”) concerning the above-referenced project (“Project”). The City has reviewed the protest submission and the bid documents, including the materials submitted by the apparent low bidder, Klassic Engineering and Construction Inc. (“Klassic”) Based on that review, the City staff has determined that the protest has merit, that Klassic’s bid is nonresponsive, and that the City staff intends to recommend award of the Project to Act 1 Construction, Inc.

In particular, the City finds that Klassic submitted bid forms that did not conform to the final bid package as modified by addenda, resulting in submission discrepancies. As raised in the Protest, the bid documents required bidders to use the revised forms and incorporate all addenda into their bids. The City staff has concluded that the use of resulting discrepancies in line-item pricing prevent the City from treating the bid as responsive to the solicitation requirements. Specifically, Klassic failed to revise multiple line items to reflect the units of measurement and related changes issued through the addenda, and instead submitted quantities and pricing based on a superseded bid schedule. Because Klassic’s bid is nonresponsive, the City will reject that bid and remove it from consideration for award. The City staff will therefore recommend to the City Council to proceed with award to the next lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Act 1 Construction. Inc, subject to approval by the City Council and completion of all remaining award requirements.

Please note that this letter reflects the City staff determination on the bid protest based on its review of the protest and bid records. The City reserves all rights with respect to the procurement and award process.

Sincerely,
Cesar Rangel, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer Attachment: D

Attn: Keivan Shirali, CEO
Re: Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project
Dear Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc.

The City of Stanton (“City”) has reviewed Klassic Engineering and Construction, Inc.’s (“KEC”) April 27, 2026 letter protesting the City’s determination that KEC’s bid for the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project (“Project”) was non-responsive.

It must be noted as an initial matter that “competitive bidding statutes […] are for the benefit of the public and not for the benefit of bidders” ( Judson Pacific-Murphy Corp. v. Durkee (1956) 144 Cal. App. 2d 377, 383). The City appreciates KEC’s protest letter, has carefully considered it, and denies it, a legislative decision guided by consideration of the public welfare. (Mike Moore's 24-Hour Towing v. City of San Diego (1996) 45 Cal.App.4th 1294, 1303 (contract award and prior acts subject to arbitrary and capricious review).

1. Project Addenda Properly Updated the Bid Schedule
KEC alleges, in part, that Addendum No. 1 did not adequately instruct bidders how to revise the Base Bid Schedule and that the City was required to provide step-by-step instructions identifying which pages or bid forms were to be removed, replaced, or revised. This is incorrect and does not find basis in California law.

When an addendum for a public works project is issued before bid opening with sufficient time for bidders to incorporate the revised information, bidders are responsible for reviewing the addendum, understanding its effect on the bid documents, and submitting a responsive bid based on the Contract Documents, as amended. Indeed, Addendum aǁer properly noticed become integrated component parts to the Contract Documents. Here, the Addendum No. 1 revised the Base Bid Schedule by changing quantities for specific bid items. KEC acknowledged the addendum but submitted a bid schedule that did not conform to the revised bid requirements. As submitted, KEC’s bid included incorrect quantities for certain items, including quantities that were too high for some items and too low for others.

City of Stanton
Pride. Purpose. Progress.
7800 Katella Avenue, Stanton, CA | Phone (714) 379-9222 | F ax (714) 890-1443 | StantonCA.gov As a result, KEC’s bid did not offer to perform the work on the basis requested by the City through the solicitation documents as amended by Addendum No. 1 and Addendum No. 2.

The bid also did not provide the City with a proper low bid value that tracked the updated quantities and items required by the revised bid schedule. This is not a minor informality or clerical issue. The incorrect bid schedule affected price, bid comparison, and the City’s ability to evaluate the bids on a common basis. A responsive bid must conform to the material requirements of the solicitation. Because KEC’s bid did not conform to the revised Base Bid Schedule, the City properly determined that the bid was non-responsive.

2. A Valid Bid Protest Was Properly Submitted
Act 1 Construction, Inc. submitted a valid bid protest on April 10, 2026. The protest, in part, raised the issue that was already under review by the City. Specifically, that the bid schedule presented by KEC did not match the required bid schedule as revised by the Addendum. The protest was valid and timely.

KEC argues that the City failed to follow its protest procedures because KEC was not notified of the protest submitted by Act 1 Construction, Inc. and was not given a separate opportunity to respond before the City made its determination. Section 17 of the Instructions to Bidders provides that the City will review a timely protest, any response from the challenged bidder, and other relevant information. This section does not create an affirmative obligation requiring the City to notify every challenged bidder of a protest or to solicit a response in every instance. The City may seek additional information where doing so would assist its review, but is not required to seek additional information from bidders.

3. KEC Could Not Have Corrected the Error
Additional information from KEC could not have cured the material defect in the bid schedule. The issue was apparent from the bid documents, the addenda, and KEC’s submitted bid and went to the price of the bid. In accordance with applicable statutes and case law under the Public Contract Code, the City could not have allowed KEC to correct the bid schedule and change its bid price aǁer bid opening. Permitting KEC to revise the bid schedule aǁer submission would have allowed KEC to alter material bid terms aǁer bids were opened, including quantities and corresponding pricing. This would create an unfair competitive advantage and undermine the integrity of the competitive bidding process which runs afoul of California court decisions on similar issues (See, Pub Cont C §5103; See also, Ghilotti Constr. Co. v City of Richmond (1996) 45 CA4th 897; See also, Konica Bus.

Machines U.S.A. Inc. v. Regents of Univ. of California (1998), 206 Cal. App. 3d 449). The City therefore could not cure the defect by allowing KEC to revise its bid aǁer the fact.

City of Stanton
Pride. Purpose. Progress.
7800 Katella Avenue, Stanton, CA | Phone (714) 379-9222 | F ax (714) 890-1443 | StantonCA.gov Accordingly, KEC was not prejudiced by the City’s decision not to request further information before making its determination.

4. Instructions to Bidders, Section 9 Revision of Bids
KEC contends that Section 9 of the Instructions to Bidders prohibited KEC from revising its bid schedule. That is incorrect. Section 9 prohibits unauthorized additions, modifications, revisions, conditions, limitations, exclusions, or provisions submitted with a bid aǁer or as part of the bid submission that do not conform to the Contract Documents.

It does not prohibit bidders from preparing and submitting their bids based on duly issued addenda before bid opening.

Bidders necessarily must account for addenda, responses to questions, and revisions issued before bid submission. KEC’s position would effectively make addenda meaningless unless the City separately instructed bidders, step by step, how to update each component of their bids. That is not required by the bid documents or applicable public bidding principles.

KEC’s allegations that the City did not inform KEC how to incorporate the addenda, and that therefore the addenda did not actually revise the bid schedule is rejected.

Additionally, KEC’s reliance on State of California Department of General Services protest procedures is misplaced. Those procedures are not incorporated into the City’s bid documents, are not binding on the City, and do not govern this procurement.

For these reasons, the City staff rejects KEC’s protest. The City confirms its determination that KEC’s bid was non-responsive because it failed to conform to the Base Bid Schedule as revised by the project addenda. The City will proceed in accordance with the Contract Documents and applicable law, including staff’s recommendation regarding award of the Project. The City intends to proceed with rejecting the bid presented by KEC, rejecting the responsiveness finding protest from KEC, and recommending award of the Project to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Act 1 Construction, Inc. at the City Council meeting on May 12, 2026.

Sincerely,
Cesar Rangel, P.E.

1. SCOPE OF WORK

1.1. KNRM’s Native American monitor will be physically present on the Project Site at all times grounddisturbing Project activities are occurring(i.e., both on-site and any off-site locations that are included in the project description/definition and/or required in connection with the project, such as public improvement work).

1.2. In order to fully and effectively execute the monitoring services identified in Section 1.1 above, the Parties agree that KNRM’s monitor shall possess all of the following rights, which may be asserted at any time and at any location on the Project Site:
a) To access any/all areas of the Project Site necessary to physically observe the “grounddisturbing activities”, as that phrase is defined in Section 1.1(a) above, as those grounddisturbing activities are occurring; b) To halt construction activity within the surrounding 50 feet (or more where deemed necessary by KNRM’s monitor) of a discovered TCR;
c) To meet and confer with the Project Supervisor in a timely manner regarding how to redirect Project activities in the vicinity of a discovered TCR and the time frame for imposing a no-work perimeter around a discovered TCR;
d) To meet and confer with the Project Supervisor in a timely manner regarding issues pertaining to effectively monitoring the Project Site in a manner that ensures compliance with the Mitigations;
e) To be timely notified of all Project meetings, including safety meetings, trainings, scheduling, etc., and permitted to attend any/all meetings; and f) To be treated in a respectful and courteous manner by all Project management, staff, personnel, contractors, and subcontractors.

City of Stanton- KNRM – NATIVE AMERICAN MONITORING SERVICE AGREEMENT

2. DISCOVERY OF NATIVE AMERICAN ARTIFACTS, GRAVE GOODS, AND/OR HUMAN REMAINS

2.1. If TCRs are found, the Tribe will retain it/them in the form and/or manner the Tribe deems appropriate, for educational purposes.

2.2.

Human remains and grave/burial goods shall be treated alike per California Public Resources Code section 5097.98(d)(1) and (2).

2.3. The Lead Agency expressly acknowledges the obligations required of it under governing State and Federal laws, including but not limited to, the California Public Resources Code, California Health & Safety Code, California Government Code, and California Code of Regulations, in the event human remains are discovered on the Project Site, and expressly agrees to comply with all such obligations, and to the extent possible, obtain compliance of the property owner in the event human remains are discovered on the Project Site but on land not owned and/or controlled by the Lead Agency.

2.4. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98, subsections (d) and (e), if human remains or associated burial goods are found on the Project Site and in an area that is under the ownership and/or control of the Lead Agency, the Lead Agency agrees to provide a designated area on the property at which to reinter the remains and/or burial goods with appropriate dignity that is not subject to further disturbance.

If such an agreement with the property owner cannot be reached, to the extent feasible, the Lead Agency will provide a designated area on the Project Site that is within the Lead Agency’s ownership and/or control, for reinternment of the human remains and/or burial goods.

2.6.

6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

6.1. Despite any language in this Agreement to the contrary, KNRM’s obligations under this Agreement (including any actual or alleged breach or default by KNRM) do not constitute personal obligations of the individual partners, directors, officers, members or shareholders of KNRM or the Tribe, or the partners or members of KNRM or the Tribe. The Lead Agency shall not seek recourse against the individual partners, directors, officers, members or shareholders of KNRM or the Tribe, or any of their personal assets for satisfaction of any liability with respect to this Agreement.

6.2. In consideration of the benefits accruing hereunder to the Lead Agency and notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Lead Agency hereby covenants and agrees for itself and all of its successors and assigns that the liability of KNRM and the Tribe for KNRM’s obligations under this Agreement (including any liability as a result of any actual or alleged failure, breach or default hereunder by KNRM or any alleged tort committed in connection with KNRM’s work), shall be limited solely to KNRM’s insurance coverage as provided in Section 7 of this Agreement.

6.3. In the event the Lead Agency performs (directly or through a contractor, subcontractor, agent, representative or otherwise at the Lead Agency’s direction) or allows to be performed grounddisturbing work without a monitor present in violation of Mitigations and in breach of this Agreement, KNRM will suffer substantial harm for which it is impracticable to fix actual damages. To limit or prevent further harm, the Lead Agency agrees and consents to the immediate issuance of a Stop Work Order by the Project lead agency, which shall stay in full force and effect unless and until the Parties resolve the non-compliance events and resulting damages.

6.4. In an effort to liquidate in advance the sum that should represent such damages and to avoid the additional costs Lead Agency will incur to remedy that breach by redoing all non-compliant grounddisturbing Project activities with a KNRM monitor present, Lead Agency agrees to pay KNRM a “Noncompliance Fee” equal to the cost of redoing all non-compliant ground-disturbing Project activities, plus KNRM’s monitoring fees for monitoring those activities. You acknowledge that you have been given notice of this Noncompliance Fee and agree that such a fee is fair and reasonable.

7. INSURANCE

7.1. A certificate of general liability insurance coverage can be provided upon request.

7.2. KNRM does not hold an automobile liability policy for the monitors. Vehicles are only used for transportation to and from the Project Site.

Daniel Herrera
City of Stanton
7800 Katella Ave
Stanton, CA 91739
Subject: Environmental Compliance Services for the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project, City of Stanton, California.

Dear Mr. Herrera:

Dudek is pleased to present this proposal to the City of Stanton’s Public Works & Engineering department to complete environmental compliance survey services in support of the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project (project) located in the City of Stanton (City), California. It is Dudek’s understanding that the Project area encompasses an underutilized sports park (APN 131-091-30) at 11111 Cedar Street, located behind the City’s Carver Early Education Center. The project seeks to develop a little league baseball field, lighting poles, a U-12 soccer field, a multipurpose sports court, a playground, a courtyard amphitheater, shaded picnic areas, fitness equipment, a community garden, a storage building, restrooms, a new water basin, a pedestrian bridge, perimeter walls and/or fencing, a utility and emergency entrance, a utility access area, a small and large dog park, and complete improvements an existing pedestrian bridge. The project encompasses approximately 4.2 acres of preexisting sports park. For the park improvement work, an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) was developed with associated mitigation measures (MMs) that call out a Preconstruction Avian Survey and on-call archaeological and paleontological monitoring. Dudek will provide preconstruction avian survey and letters of retention for both the project archaeologist and paleontologist, prior to the commencement of construction activities. Dudek assumes the full 4.2-acre work area will need to be surveyed by a qualified biologist, 14 days prior to work commencing. Construction is anticipated to take 180 working days, per correspondence with the City on October 28, 2026.

TASK 1 PRECONSTRUCTION AVIAN SURVEY
Dudek understands that Project activities will occur during the nesting bird season (defined as February through August). In accordance with MM-BIO-1, a preconstruction avian survey (survey) will be conducted by a qualified biologist within 14 days prior to any work commencing. The survey area will include the Project impact area (i.e., disturbance footprint) including the existing trees on site identified for removal, plus a 250-foot buffer to search for passerine and a minimum 500-foot buffer to search for nesting raptors (birds of prey).

Should any active nests for birds listed under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act be discovered within the project site or within the area of construction-related activities, an adequate protective buffer zone shall be established by To: Daniel Herrera
Subject: Environmental Compliance Survey Services for the Norm Ross Sports Park Improvement Project 2 the Dudek biologist to protect the nesting site. Protective buffer zones shall include a minimum of 75 feet for passerine birds and a minimum of 200 feet for raptors. Buffer distances shall be determined by the qualified Dudek biologist, based on site conditions like topography, if the nest is in a line of site of construction activities, and the sensitivity of the nesting bird species. The Dudek qualified biologist may also utilize additional protective measures like the establishment of clearly delineated exclusionary zones, if necessary.

Prior to the initiation of construction activities, the Dudek qualified biologist will prepare a memorandum (memo) of the survey results to be provided to the City. The memo will describe the methods used for survey efforts, results of the survey, recommended buffers, and/or justification for buffer reductions. The survey memo will be submitted to the City within one week of completion of the survey. If an active nest is observed during the survey, the memo will include a map that shows the nesting site and designated protective buffer. Construction will not be allowed to proceed until appropriate buffer distances are employed for all potentially active nests.

Task 1 Assumptions

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: May 12, 2026
SUBJECT: FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

AGREEMENT WITH INTERWEST RELATING TO POTENTIAL

PREPARATION OF REPLACEMENT HOUSING PLAN AND

RELOCATION PLAN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PERMANENT

RELOCATION SERVICES FOR CITY PROPERTIES AT THE TINA

PACIFIC NEIGHBORHOOD
REPORT IN BRIEF:

The City Council will consider approving the Fourth Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Interwest. The Fourth Amendment expands the scope of work to include potential preparation of a replacement housing plan in addition to the existing scope of work for a potential relocation plan and potential permanent relocation services, extends the term through October 2027, and increases the not-to-exceed compensation amount from $243,000 to $360,000.

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. Authorize the City Manager to enter into a Fourth Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Interwest for preparation of a potential replacement housing plan in addition to the existing scope of work for a potential relocation plan and potential permanent relocation services in a form approved by the City Attorney.

BACKGROUND:

Since October 2023, the City has retained Interwest to provide professional relocation services for the Tina Pacific neighborhood in support of ongoing site stabilization efforts and future potential redevelopment planning.

Item: 9P
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 In November 2024, in response to escalating impacts associated with homelessness, the City Council adopted a Homelessness State of Emergency. This action recognized significant increases in unsheltered individuals and corresponding health and safety concerns throughout the City, including within the Tina Pacific neighborhood. The presence of vacant and underutilized units at the site contributed to ongoing challenges, including trespassing, property damage, and threats to resident safety.

To address these conditions, the City directed Interwest to implement voluntary relocation options for residents. These options allowed tenants to relocate to alternative housing, consolidate occupancy into more secure buildings, or remain in place with continued City support. To date, 20 families have accepted voluntary relocation services, helping to reduce vacancy-related risks and improve overall site conditions. Collectively, these efforts have been critical in enhancing safety, minimizing opportunities for unlawful activity, and stabilizing the neighborhood while the City explores potential longer-term planning and redevelopment objectives.

ANALYSIS AND JUSTIFICATION:

Currently, there is no redevelopment project in the Tina Pacific neighborhood. However, the City continues to seek potential partners and explore potential redevelopment options.

Any potential project will require relocation and replacement housing plans and implementation that is consistent with applicable state and federal requirements.

The City has long partnered with Interwest, which in addition to being responsive and reliable, is knowledgeable regarding the Tina Pacific neighborhood because of their years-long contacts with neighborhood residents. When any relocation and replacement housing plans are required, the City, in partnership with Interwest, will be positioned to immediately engage with prospective development partners and residents. This will reduce uncertainty, streamline future negotiations, and enable the City to move efficiently toward potential redevelopment.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding is available in the Housing Authority Fund.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:

None, this item is an administrative activity not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 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, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly). 3 LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney’s Office has reviewed the staff report.

STRATEGIC GOAL:

Goal 5. Maintain and promote a responsive, high-quality and transparent government.

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION:

Public notice for this item was made through the regular agenda process.

o Based on the information obtained during the interview, as well as parameters approved by City, Interwest will issue an important notice referred to as the Notice of Entitlement.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Stanton (" City") has been acquiring properties in the proposed project area as property owners willingly decide to sell their properties and have taken them subject to residential tenant occupancy. The City is currently attempting to fund the proposed project that may have two segments, one market rate development and one affordable housing component. The primary goal of the proposed project is intended to address the shortage of affordable and market rate housing units in the City of Stanton.

The proposed project will require the preparation of a Relocation Plan, and would require permanent relocations of all occupants, however until the City enters into a development agreement and secures all funding, the occupants will not be displaced.

Additionally, the City' s property management team has identified several of the existing 44 units that may need significant repairs and could require temporary or permanent relocation of the occupants.

Interwest' steam maintains a successful track record of providing permanent and temporary relocation services on public housing projects in southern California. As a result, Interwest' steam has a deep understanding of the local community, housing trends and local political constraints and concerns.

PRO. JFCT TEAM
We have assigned Brett Paulson, SR/ WA, R/ W-AC, R/ W- NAC to serve as the project manager to assist the City develop the appropriate strategies, communicate the needs of the project to all stakeholders, provide expert regulatory guidance and lead our team of professionals.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

A comprehensive report will be prepared and distributed as directed by City for public review and comment. The plan will include the following components:

Description of the project and pertinent/ potential funding sources.

Summary of data obtained through the property management records and interviews, including identification of possible issues, such as overcrowded units or households with special needs and specific language requirements.

Description of the Relocation Assistance Program ( RAP).

Description of benefits available within the RAP.

A relocation expense budget estimate. Our detailed cost matrix will be included as a supplemental planning tool for the City, but not included in the Plan.
