REV 2017_09_01
Insurance policy or proceeds available to the named insured; whichever is greater. No representation is made that the minimum insurance requirements of this agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the Contractor under this agreement.

Limits of Insurance
The limits of insurance required in this agreement may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis before the City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.

Other Insurance Provisions
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:

Additional Insured Status
The City of Stockton, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds on the CGL policy with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of the Contractor including materials, parts, or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations. General liability coverage can be provided in the form of an endorsement to the Contractor’s insurance (at least as broad as ISO Form CG 20 10 11 85 or if not available, through the addition of both CG 20 10, CG 20 26, CG 20 33, or CG 20 38; and CG 20 37 if a later edition is used).

The City of Stockton does not accept endorsements limiting the Contractor’s insurance coverage to the sole negligence of the Named Insured.

Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy required above shall state that coverage shall not be canceled, except with notice to the City of Stockton.

EXHIBIT D

ATTACHMENT B
246
REV 2017_09_01
Contractor hereby grants to City of Stockton a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Contractor may acquire against the City of Stockton by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Contractor agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be necessary to affect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether or not the City of Stockton has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer. The Workers’ Compensation policy shall be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation in favor of the City of Stockton for all work performed by the Contractor, its employees, agents and subcontractors.

Self-Insured Retentions
All Self-insured retentions must be disclosed to Risk Management for approval and shall not reduce the limits of liability. The City of Stockton may require the Contractor to purchase coverage with a lower retention or provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention.

The policy language shall provide, or be endorsed to provide, that the self-insured retention may be satisfied by either the named insured or City of Stockton.

Acceptability of Insurers
Insurance is to be placed with insurers with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII, unless otherwise acceptable to the City of Stockton.

Claims Made Policies (note – applicable only to professional liability) If any of the required policies provide coverage on a claims-made basis:

1. The Retroactive Date must be shown and must be before the date of the contract or the beginning of contract work.

2. Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the contract of work.

3. If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims- made policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the contract effective date, the Contractor must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of contract work.

Verification of Coverage
Contractor shall furnish the City of Stockton with original certificates and amendatory endorsements or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by this clause. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the

EXHIBIT D

Contractor shall, prior to the commencement of work under this Agreement, provide the City of Stockton with a copy of its declarations page(s) and endorsement page(s) for each of the required policies.

A copy of the owner contract document indemnity and insurance provisions will be furnished to the subcontractor upon request. Contractor shall provide proof of such compliance and verification to the City upon request.

ADOPT RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE TRANSFER OF FUNDS FOR LIGHTING AND PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT UPGRADES AT S.L. FONG PARK

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to transfer funds in the amount of $57,776.03 from two zones of the Stockton Consolidated Landscape Maintenance Assessment District No. 96-2 Reserves for Continuing Appropriations Accounts to fund lighting and playground equipment upgrades at S.L. Fong Park.

It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.

Summary
The pathway lighting wire at S.L. Fong Park has been stolen twice, and the playground equipment is in need of repair. Converting the pathway lights to solar fixtures has been identified as the most cost- effective and timely solution. The requested $57,776.03 mid-year appropriations will convert pathway lights at S.L. Fong Park to solar-powered fixtures and fund the purchase of replacement playground equipment.

DISCUSSION
Background
Zone A-4, Blossom Ranch, of the Stockton Consolidated Landscape Maintenance Assessment District No. 96-2 (SCLMAD), was formed in 2000. Zone A-4 is located in the northeast part of the City, generally at the intersection of March Lane and Holman Road and lying south of March Lane.

Improvements maintained include backup walls, landscaping between the walls and back of the sidewalk, March Lane median landscaping, and funding a proportionate share of the costs for S.L.

Fong Park.

Zone A-7, Hunter Ridge, of the SCLMAD, was formed in 2004. Zone A-7 is generally bounded by March Lane, Blossom Ranch subdivision, the Calaveras River, and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks.

Improvements maintained include backup walls, landscaping between the walls and back of the sidewalk, and funding a proportionate share of the costs for S.L. Fong Park.

The Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-23 budgets for Zones A-4 and A-7, along with the budgets for all zones of the SCLMAD, were approved at a public hearing in June 2022. Budgeted expenditures include contracted maintenance, utilities, administration, repair and replacement of plant material and infrastructure, allocation to the replacement reserve, and a contingency. However, the operating City of Stockton Printed on 2/28/2023Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
263
File #: 22-1117, Version: 1
budgets for Zones A-4 and A-7 are insufficient to fund the solar pathway lighting conversion and playground repairs.

When the budgets for Zones A-4 and A-7 were being prepared in early 2022, a scope of work for restoring the lighting system for S.L. Fong Park had not been developed, nor was there an estimate for the upgraded replacement playground equipment.

The S.L. Fong Park playground has not been updated since the park was built in 2004. The playground component upgrades have been identified through safety inspections by City staff and industry representatives.

Present Situation
The wiring for the pathway lights at S.L. Fong Park have been stolen twice in the last two years.

Converting the pathway lights to solar fixtures has been identified as the most cost-effective and timely solution. Bids for solar fixtures were advertised on June 8, 2022, and returned on June 14, 2022. A low bid was received in June 2022 for $34,989.96 for solar light fixtures compatible with the existing light poles at S.L. Fong Park. The installation of the solar fixtures will be completed by City staff.

Quotes for playground equipment replacement, installation, and upgrades of worn components at S.L. Fong Park were provided by Park Planet, the Northern California representatives of PlayCraft, the equipment manufacturer. The total cost of this project will be $22,786.07.

The cost for the solar fixtures and playground components will be encumbered in Zones A-4 and A-7, Materials and Supplies.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
A transfer of funds from the SCLMAD Reserves for Continuing Appropriations Accounts for Zones A-4 and A-7 is recommended to fund the park upgrades and allow the remaining FY 2022-23 budgeted contingency funds to be available for any unanticipated expenses, which may occur between now and the end of the fiscal year. Both Zones have sufficient funding available in the Reserves for Continuing Appropriations Accounts to support these actions.

The following actions are recommended:

Transfer from:

Account No. 000-000-390000-270-025-00-00-000-000- $19,707.40 Reserves for Continuing Appropriations, Zone A-4, Blossom Ranch Transfer to:

APPROVE MOTION TO EXECUTE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT AMENDMENT NO. 3

FOR THE NORTHEAST STOCKTON LIBRARY AND COMMUNITY CENTER PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a motion to authorize Professional Services Contract Amendment No. 3 in the amount of $413,000 with Griffin Structures, Inc. for the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center, Project No. CL17024.

It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this motion.

Summary
On September 29, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-09-29-1108, Council authorized the award of a Professional Services Contract in the amount of $890,000 to Griffin Structures, Inc. of Irvine, CA, to provide construction management services on the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center project.

Two Professional Services Contract Amendments extending Griffin Structures, Inc.’s services have been approved for a total amount of $188,673. Construction on the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center project has continued to experience supply chain and construction challenges with the contractor, Patriot Contracting, Inc., that have extended the contract completion to the summer of 2023. Griffin Structures, Inc. submitted a proposal for additional construction management services required to complete the project. Staff negotiated Professional Services Contract Amendment No. 3 in the amount of $413,000 to extend services to the end of construction.

Staff recommends approval of Professional Services Contract Amendment No. 3 in the amount of $413,000 with Griffin Structures, Inc. for the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center, Project No. CL17024.

DISCUSSION
Background
The Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center will provide citizens with critically needed services in the northeastern portion of Stockton. The new Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center will be located at 1461 Morada Lane, a 4.83-acre site located adjacent to the Ronald E. McNair High School (Attachment A - Vicinity Map). The library portion of the facility will include a combined circulation and reference desk, meeting rooms, learning center, children’s area, teen area, and group and individual seating areas. The facility will also include a recreation area City of Stockton Printed on 2/28/2023Page 1 of 3

featuring a large gymnasium that will also serve as meeting or event spaces, locker/shower rooms, play areas, kitchen facilities, and an outdoor basketball court.

On September 29, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-09-29-1108, Council authorized the award of a Professional Services Contract in the amount of $890,000 to Griffin Structures, Inc. of Irvine, CA, to provide construction management services on the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center project.

On December 15, 2020, by Resolution No. 2020-12-15-1404, Council awarded a Construction Contract in the amount of $14,450,566 to Patriot Contracting, Inc. of Union City, CA, to provide construction services on the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center project. Construction on the project began on March 30, 2021 and is currently ongoing.

Construction of the project has experienced delays due to supply chain issues, weather, unforeseen site conditions, in addition to workmanship and project control issues by the contractor, Patriot Contracting, Inc. Consequently, two Professional Services Contract Amendments to the construction management contract with Griffin Structures, Inc. for a total amount of $188,673 were executed for additional services.

Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $178,683 was approved by the City Manager on October 6, 2022, for additional construction management and material testing services to November 2022. Similarly, Amendment No. 2 in the amount of $9,990 was approved by the City Manager on December 20, 2022, which extended services to mid-December 2022.

Present Situation
Construction on the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center project has continued to experience supply chain and construction challenges with the contractor, Patriot Contracting, Inc., that have extended the contract completion. The project is progressing slowly but is anticipated to be complete in summer of 2023. The construction management services provided by Griffin Structures, Inc. will need to be extended to coincide with the project completion. Public Works negotiated a fee of $413,000 for the additional construction management services during construction (Attachment B).

Professional Services Contract Amendment No. 3 will compensate Griffin Structures, Inc. for their additional services.

While Amendment Nos. 1 and 2 were approved under the City Manager’s administrative authority, with Amendment No. 3 the total contract increase of $601,673 will exceed the administrative amendment authority under the contract. Accordingly, Amendment No. 3 will require Council approval and result in a total contract amount of $1,491,673.

Staff recommends approval of Professional Services Contract Amendment No. 3 in the amount of $413,000 with Griffin Structures, Inc. for the Northeast Stockton Library and Community Center, Project No. CL17024.

A similar contract amendment for additional design support services from the design architect, Arch Nexus, will be needed to complete construction. The contract amendment for additional design support services with Arch Nexus will be submitted for Council approval in the near future.

The project reconstructed, widened, and improved the existing path along the East Bay MUD corridor between Brookside Road and Hillsboro Way for a distance of approximately 3.5 miles. The project also upgraded the path to current Class I Bicycle and Pedestrian (shared use) standards.

Construction Contract Change Order (CCO) Nos. 1 through 4, in the amount of $378,011.05, were previously approved under the administrative change order authority allowed under the original contract. Balancing CCO No. 5, with McFadden Construction, Inc. in the amount of $62,287.33, requires Council authorization as the cumulative amount of CCO Nos. 1 through 5 exceeds the administrative change order authority allowed under the existing contract.

Staff recommends that Council approve Balancing CCO No. 5 in the amount of $62,287.33 with McFadden Construction, Inc. (Exhibit 1) to close out the project and compensate the contractor primarily for additional path reconstruction efforts where poor pavement conditions existed, replacing damaged irrigation, and various electrical repairs at signalized intersection corners.

DISCUSSION
Background
On July 27, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-07-27-1222, Council awarded a Construction Contract in the amount of $2,784,744.42 to McFadden Construction, Inc., of Stockton, CA, for the March Lane/East Bay MUD Bicycle and Pedestrian Path Connectivity Improvements, Project No.

WT17022/Federal Project No. ATPCML-5008(179). This project has been fully constructed with only project closeout remaining (Attachment A - Vicinity Map).

The project reconstructed, widened, and improved the existing path along the East Bay MUD corridor between Brookside Road and Hillsboro Way for a distance of approximately 3.5 miles. The project also upgraded the path to current Class I Bicycle and Pedestrian (shared use) standards, installed intersection and midblock improvements, high visibility crosswalks, striping, gap closures, upgraded curb ramps to Americans with Disabilities Act standards, installed flashing beacons, and added wayfinding signage.

During construction, additional work was necessary to address unforeseen field conditions and accomplish the intended scope of the project. CCO Nos. 1 through 4, in the amount of $378,011.05, were previously approved under the administrative change order authority allowed under the original contract. CCO Nos. 1 through 4 approved additional work for replacing unsuitable soils and installing geogrid beneath new path where required, installing additional bollards to restrict vehicle access, and removing trees that would obstruct the new path alignment.

Present Situation
Balancing CCO No. 5 is now required to close out the project and compensate the contractor primarily for additional path reconstruction efforts where poor pavement conditions existed, replacing damaged irrigation, and various electrical repairs at signalized intersection corners. To avoid additional delay costs to the City, staff authorized the additional work. Council approval is required for Balancing CCO No. 5, as the cumulative amount of CCO Nos. 1 through 5 exceeds the administrative change order authority allowed under the existing contract.

Staff recommends that Council approve Balancing CCO No. 5 in the amount of $62,287.33 with McFadden Construction, Inc. (Exhibit 1) to close out the project and compensate the contractor primarily for additional path reconstruction efforts where poor pavement conditions existed, replacing damaged irrigation, and various electrical repairs at signalized intersection corners. The total revised contract value will be $3,225,042.80.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
The current unencumbered balance in the March Lane/East Bay MUD Bicycle and Pedestrian Path Connectivity Improvements, Project No. WT17022 (formerly PW1722)/Federal Project No. ATPCML- 5008(179), Account No. 4570-000-800007-300-000-30-45-000-000, is sufficient to authorize Balancing CCO No. 5 in the amount of $62,287.33 with McFadden Construction, Inc. The revised contract amount with McFadden Construction, Inc. is increased to $3,225,042.80.

APPROVE MOTION TO AWARD A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT FOR THE WEST

LANE QUEUE CUTTER PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a motion to:

1. Award a Professional Services Contract to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. of Oakland, CA, in the amount of $298,716.60, for design of the West Lane Queue Cutter, Project No.

WT22008/Federal Project No. STPLR-7500(289).

2. Approve findings pursuant to Stockton Municipal Code section 3.68.070 in support of an exception to the competitive bidding process.

It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this motion.

Summary
The project will install a queue cutter traffic signal at the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) crossing on West Lane just south of the intersection of West Lane and Alpine Avenue (Attachment A - Vicinity Map). A queue cutter traffic signal prevents vehicle from stopping on railroad tracks. The project will also install sidewalk along the west side of West Lane from Alpine Avenue to El Pinal Drive. The project was included in the 2021-26 Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and is entirely funded by the federal Railroad-Highway Grade Crossings Program (RHGCP), which is also known as the Section 130 Program.

On July 25, 2022, the City advertised a Request for Proposals (RFP) for design of the West Lane Queue Cutter project. On August 25, 2022, the City received four proposals. A Selection Committee evaluated the proposals and found Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. of Oakland, CA, to be the most qualified and highest ranked firm.

Staff recommends that Council approve a motion to award a Professional Services Contract in the amount of $298,716.60 to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for design services of the West Lane Queue Cutter project. It is anticipated that the design will be completed and construction beginning by late summer 2024.

This project is federally funded and is subject to federal Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) requirements.

DISCUSSION
Background
The City and UPRR applied for federal RHGCP funds, also known as the Section 130 Program, for safety improvements at the West Lane railroad crossing south of the intersection of West Lane and Alpine Avenue (Attachment A - Vicinity Map). On May 6, 2016, as required by the Section 130 Program, a Diagnostic Team consisting of representatives from the City of Stockton, UPRR, California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), met on site to determine the safety improvements needed for the West Lane railroad crossing.

The Diagnostic Team determined that a “queue cutter” signal was needed at this crossing. A “queue cutter” is a coordinated signal system between a railroad crossing guard signal and a nearby intersection signal. The purpose of the queue cutter signal is to prevent vehicles from stopping on the railroad tracks. In this case, the West Lane and Alpine Avenue signal will be coordinated with the UPRR crossing signal approximately 1,000 feet away to safely keep West Lane vehicles from stopping on the tracks during peak congestion periods. Other recommended improvements include installation of sidewalk along the west side of West Lane from Alpine Avenue to El Pinal Drive and median improvements. This will be a coordinated effort between the City and UPRR.

UPRR and the City were both awarded Section 130 funds for their respective portions of the project scope. The City was awarded $3,810,800 for the environmental document phase, preliminary engineering, construction, and construction management costs which will be 100 percent funded by the Section 130 Program. The City entered into a Federal Funds Program Supplement Agreement with Caltrans, the administrator of the Section 130 Program, on March 17, 2022. The project was included in the 2021-26 Five-Year CIP.

Since the project is funded with federal transportation dollars, DBE program rules apply. DBE rules require that the consultant either meet a calculated project specific DBE participation goal or undertake and document good faith efforts to do so. Failure to meet the goal or make adequate good faith efforts are grounds for rejecting the consultant’s proposal.

A DBE is a socially and economically disadvantaged small business owned by a woman or by a specific ethnic group that has been properly certified by Caltrans. These groups include:
· African American
· Asian Pacific American
· Native American
· Women
· Hispanic American
· Subcontinent Asian American
A DBE goal of six percent was established for this project. The goal was calculated by examining the breakdown of the types of work to be performed, and the availability of certified DBE companies in our market area to perform the work.

Federal funding restrictions prohibit the use of the Local Employment Ordinance (Stockton Municipal Code (SMC) section 3.68.095), the Local Business Preference Ordinance (SMC section 3.68.090), and the Community Workforce and Training Agreement.

Present Situation
On July 25, 2022, the City advertised an RFP for design of the West Lane Queue Cutter, Project No.

WT22008/Federal Project No. STPLR-7500(289). On August 25, 2022, four proposals were received from the following firms:
· Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (Oakland, CA)
· BKF Engineers (Redwood City, CA)
· CSG Consultants, Inc. (Sacramento, CA)
· Advanced Mobility Group (Walnut Creek, CA)
A Selection Committee evaluated and ranked all proposals based on each firm’s understanding of work, experience with similar kinds of projects, staff qualifications and technical ability, project approach, and familiarity of federal transportation funding procedures.

Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. received the highest ranking, based on the noted criteria, and was determined to be the most qualified firm for this project. Staff negotiated a fee in the amount of $298,716.60 with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for design of the West Lane Queue Cutter project. The negotiated fee is approximately 7.8 percent of the estimated project cost, which is reasonable for a project of this type and complexity. Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. proposed a 20 percent DBE participation, which exceeds the DBE goal of six percent.

Staff recommends that Council approve a motion to award a Professional Services Contract in the amount of $298,716.60 to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. for design services of the West Lane Queue Cutter project (Attachment B). It is anticipated that the design will be completed and construction beginning by late summer 2024.

Findings
Pursuant to SMC section 3.68.070, Council may approve findings which support an exception to the competitive bidding process. These findings include:

1. The City does not have sufficient staff available to design this project.

2. Use of the RFP process is appropriate for this Professional Services Contract because it relies on the evaluation of professional qualifications and performance as the basis for selection of a vendor. Use of the criteria helps ensure selection of a vendor that will provide the highest quality professional service, which is in the public interest.

3. The City negotiated a contract following solicitation of competitive proposals in accordance with SMC section 3.68.070.A.3.

PROPOSAL FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR THE
West Lane Queue Cutter

4. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Project Background
The City of Stockton (City) and the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) were both awarded Caltrans Railway-Highway Crossing Program (RHCP) Section 130 funding to implement necessary roadway and traffic signal improvements to reduce the number and severity of highway accidents and to improve safety for motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians at existing at-grade railroad crossings. This includes modifying traffic signals and lane striping to add new queue cutter traffic signal and safety lighting equipment as well as other crossing warning equipment to current standards and an interconnection to a new UPRR grade crossing equipment house as well. Other improvements will include the installation of new ADA compliant wheelchair sidewalk and curb ramps as applicable, pavement delineators, and roadside signs. These improvements will be implemented at West Lane but include a traffic signal interconnection (fiber-optic) to the East Alpine Avenue/West Lane traffic signal.

The Section 130 Railroad-Highway Crossings Program is managed by the Division of Local Assistance. The Caltrans RHCP is a collaborative effort led by CPUC, funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and implemented by Caltrans in cooperation with local agencies and railroads throughout California. Caltrans is responsible for administering funds, contracting, and oversight of the Section 130 projects. CPUC is responsible for creating the Section 130 priority funding list, development of scope, and preliminary cost estimates. Local agencies and the railroad companies, such as the City of Stockton and UPRR, must work together to complete design, environmental, and construction for Section 130 funded safety improvements.

TThe queue cutter will ideally eliminate the recurrence of vehicles that are queuing along northbound West Lane over the tracks, especially during back- to-back train movements occurring suddenly after an already long gate down timeframe. Train crossing times of nearly five minutes have been observed.

Project Understanding
The City intends to hire a highly qualified consultant to provide project management, preliminary studies and designs, permitting assistance, final design services, and construction design support services for the installation of a queue cutter traffic signal at the railroad tracks between East Alpine Avenue and El Pinal Drive along West Lane. The final product will be construction contract documents including plans, specifications, and cost estimates ready for bid.

UPRR has also secured funding for their portion of the work which includes a new signal house and circuitry from the wayside signal equipment to the track connections at both the grade crossing predictor equipment and the insulated joint locations defining the island track circuits that provide the logic necessary to operate the at-grade crossing automatic gates and flashers. They will likely self-perform the construction work and utilize Alfred Benesch and Company (Benesch), a third-party consultant, to manage the day-to-day interface, coordination and project management on behalf of the railroad. Kimley-Horn staff have worked directly with Nick Vineyard, the Benesch employee assigned to these crossings, and other members of UPRR’s consultant teams on many different rail crossing projects and will bring this experience to streamline the planning and design process and secure UPRR and CPUC approvals.

In order to provide the safest traffic systems possible along West Lane with the addition of the queue cutter, it is critical that the project team thoroughly understands the traffic movements along West Lane and the interaction with East Alpine Road. Traffic signals and grade crossing preemption interactions must also understand and take into consideration typical train movements and freight operations. In addition, an understanding of the design work and new replacement rail crossing activation equipment and the interface to the traffic control relay and grade crossing relay connections will be imperative to provide the most efficient coordination.

The railroad’s design standards and requirements are ever evolving for the better to provide the safest interface with the highway crossing.

The City’s design consultant is best suited to have in-depth knowledge of these latest standards in order to expedite design cycles. This will ultimately reduce review periods to the minimum in order to deliver this project quickly the travelling patrons of Stockton
Finally, it is understood that the City has obtained NEPA Categorical Exclusion, is securing the CEQA Categorical Exemption, and completed a preliminary environmental study (PES) to Caltrans and no additional environmental studies are required at this time. If needed, Kimley-Horn has the necessary environmental services capabilities to quickly assist the City should a reevaluation be warranted and requested.

We have included a design exhibit on the following page which displays our team’s proposed improvements to the West Lane railroad crossing.

5. DETAILED WORK PLAN
This detailed work plan is based on Kimley-Horn’s preliminary field investigations, our understanding of the goals and objectives of the project, our interpretation of the tasks outlined in the RFP , and experience preparing PS&E for similar signal projects for the City of Stockton.

TASK 1: Background Research
Kimley-Horn will review readily available project documents and design standards and compile public utility system maps, previous design plans, and details for use in project design. We will conduct field reviews and verify as-builts provided by the City and utility companies. Kimley-Horn will also gather information and more detailed observations on existing traffic conditions, pedestrian conditions, posted speed limits, and visible utilities (above and below ground), existing traffic signal elements, conduit runs, pull boxes, overhead utilities (measured heights), sidewalks, roadway pavement conditions, and other readily apparent features. Utility locating services will be conducted for the entire stretch of the proposed sidewalks along the west side of West Lane between Alpine Avenue and El Pinal Drive and at the proposed queue cutter signal location.

Peak period turning movement counts will be collected at the West Lane/ Alpine Avenue and West Lane/El Pinal Drive intersections along with 24- hour average daily traffic counts along West Lane north of the tracks. The turning movement counts will be collected on one weekday (AM, midday, and PM) and one weekend day (afternoon peak), while the 24-hour counts will be collected on one weekday. These counts will be utilized for signal timing planning and design as well as provide up to date crossing information data for CPUC and FRA database updates.

Kimley-Horn will prepare a brief summary technical memorandum documenting the results of the background research presenting our basis of design prior to utility coordination and final design.

TASK 2: Utility Coordination
Kimley-Horn will submit utility information request letters to private and public utility companies including, but not limited to, California Water Service Company, Stockton Municipal Utilities Department (MUD), sewer districts, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), various telecommunications companies, and other privately-owned utility companies with facilities located in the public right-of-way that may be affected by the project. We will prepare Utility “A” letters to obtain utility mapping from utility companies and develop a utility base map. A utility matrix will be created to track discussions and data received from the various utility agencies.

If needed, Utility “B” letters will be prepared at the 65% design stage and sent to the City for review and approve. Once approved, Kimley-Horn will send the Utility “B” Letter and two copies of the 65% plans to the utility companies for review and to indicate where there are conflicts with their utilities (existing and future). Also, if needed, Utility “C” letters will be prepared at the 100% design stage and submitted to the City for review and approval prior to send to the affected utility companies.

As necessary, Kimley-Horn will coordinate with PG&E for the electrical service required at West Lane at-grade crossing for the queue cutter signal equipment. We will start this coordination process at the 65% design stage given this will likely be a long-lead coordination item. It is assumed that all PG&E application and engineering fees will be paid directly by the City.

TASK 3: Plans, Specifications,
and Estimate
Prior to the start of detailed design, our subconsultant, UNICO Engineering, Inc. will complete a topographic survey at the existing at- grade crossing location as indicated in Task 1. The detailed survey will include all four quadrants of the at-grade rail crossing including survey limits approximately 150 feet in each direction along the rail alignment and 750 feet in each direction of West Lane starting from the concrete rail crossing panels and continue at 25-foot intervals.

Since the intersection of El Pinal Drive could interface geometrically, each quadrant and curb return will be captured there as well. Cross sections will be taken a
t 5-ft beyond beginning of curb return, beginning of curb return, 1/3 of curb return, 1/2 of curb return, 3/4 of curb return, end of curb return, and 5-ft beyond curb return. Cross sections will include elevations for the following: 5-ft from the back of sidewalk, intermediate sidewalk grade breaks, top and bottom of curb ramps, top of curb, gutter flow line, lip of gutter, and roadway pavements at 5-ft and 10-ft and 20-ft from the face of curb. Survey will also provide pavement grades adjacent to each crosswalk ramp, for verifying ADA compliance.

All utility structures including boxes, vaults, poles, inlets, manholes, meters, and all appurtenances within the area will be surveyed including inverts of drainage structures and accessible storm drain manholes, sanitary sewer manholes, and curb inlets. Survey control will tie into the City’s listed survey monuments. The survey will provide right- of-way and easements based on County records and will be tied to the City’s Horizontal and Vertical System. Project specifications will include language to preserve all monumentation affected by the work being performed.

Prior to the development of the 30% PS&E documents, we will set up intersection base maps with new information we have collected (e.g., field work, topographic survey data, utilities, etc.) for this project. This effort includes updating utility information based on information received from the City and utility companies. Once base mapping is complete, we will begin the preparation of the 30% design which will show initial proposed elements such as new traffic signal pole and mast arm placement, proposed cabinets, existing and new conduit routing, signing and striping, safety lighting, and new sidewalk and pedestrian crossing footprints.

We are confident that this crossing improvement project will require the accommodation of a 90-degree crossing angle for pedestrians due to the latest standards, best practices, and recent experiences with UPRR and CPUC. We have indicated that on our proposed layout concept shown in Exhibit 1. You can see this type of configuration on recently installed crossings that we’re further improving as part our Alameda County Rail Safety Enhancements project as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — Alvarado Street Crossing, San Leandro
We will prepare truck turning templates taking into consideration the vehicles from UPRR that will need to continue to maintain access to their tracks. The turning template exhibits will be submitted with the 30% design documents.

Kimley-Horn will conduct a lighting photometric analysis at the proposed queue cutter and the area around the railroad tracks where new sidewalks are proposed which will be based on current City standards

and design guidelines. The analysis will be used to determine where additional safety lighting may be needed to meet the required lighting levels. A lighting analysis will be prepared and submitted with the 30% design documents. Lighting along the proposed sidewalk will be based on the City’s standards.

The anticipated breakdown of sheets for the 30% plans is as follows:

 Title Sheet
 Layout Plans
[6 sheets]
 Signing and Striping
Plans [6 sheets]
 Signal Plans [2 sheets]
The technical specifications will be prepared using the latest City Technical Specifications with modifications to include elements of this project, in particular the bid item list and descriptions. The specifications will be submitted in Microsoft Word and PDF formats.

We will prepare an initial engineer’s estimate based on the 30% design which will include a complete list of the bid items and their respective costs. The intent of this estimate is to provide the City with the refined initial determination of whether the funding aligns with the proposed improvements. The engineer’s estimate will be submitted in Microsoft Excel and PDF formats.

We anticipate that UPRR will review each of the design submittal phases.

We know that the required submittals to UP are typically Concept, 30%, and Final (100%) plans. As such, any other plans prior to Final (100%) will be reviewed at the 30% level until approved. It is generally expected that the 100% plans will require few minor comments, and as such, our proposed fee assumes this level of effort.

Kimley-Horn will review the City’s and UPRR’s comments on the 30% design documents and incorporate them in the 65% design. We will prepare a comments matrix with responses to each of the City’s comments along with their disposition.

The 65% design will be a more detailed design version of the 30% design, including utility information (as received from the utility companies), additional sidewalk and pedestrian crossing design details such as grading information, retaining wall plan/profiles (if needed), and conduit and traffic signal equipment information. As stipulated in the RFP , the 65% designs will be developed with enough detail to identify locations of utilities, geometric features, and other design elements for the City to review and make necessary comments.

We will initiate coordination with PG&E for the implementation of new service required at West Lane at-grade crossing for the queue cutter signal equipment. This includes the installation of a new service meter to a new service pedestal and connection of nearby service point connections to that new pedestal.

We will prepare railroad preemption calculations using the recently updated LADOT methodology for the queue cutter and will fill out and submit the UPRR Preemption Request Form at the 65% design stage.

The anticipated breakdown of sheets for the 65% plans is as follows:

 Title Sheet including Legends

The design will include drawing details showing traffic signal controller and communication equipment connections to adjacent signals and railroad crossing signal house. The technical specifications and estimate will be revised based on comments from the 30% design submittal.

Kimley-Horn will review the City and UPRR’s comments on the 65% design documents and incorporate them in the 95% design. We will prepare a comments matrix with responses to each of the City’s comments along with their disposition. If necessary, we will organize a design review meeting to discuss any critical City comments.

Potholing efforts will be conducted after the 65% design comments are received. Up to four (4) clearance holes are included.

The 95% design will provide all of the design details, including complete utility information, detailed ADA curb ramp designs, and detailed conduit and traffic signal equipment information. All equipment and conductor schedules will be completed.

The anticipated 95% design plan set includes, but is not limited to the anticipated breakdown of sheets as indicated at 65% design.

Kimley-Horn will develop the 95% technical specifications to include all the required provisions including the complete bid list and bid item descriptions, language for PG&E coordination, and the construction timeline (working days). Kimley-Horn will update the engineer’s estimate based on the comments received.

If required, Kimley-Horn will prepare Rights of Entry letters and exhibits depicting locations where work is required within private right-of-way (temporary construction easement). We will submit the Rights of Entry letters to impacted property owners.

Kimley-Horn will review the City’s and UPRR’s comments on the 95% design documents and incorporate them in the 100% design. We will prepare a comments matrix with responses to each of the City’s comments along with their disposition. If necessary, we will organize a design review meeting to discuss any critical City comments.

The 100% design documents will be submitted to the City for review.

It is anticipated that the City will route the 100% design documents for review and approval. Once the final set of City comments are received by Kimley-Horn we will prepare the final PS&E package.

The final full-sized (24-inch by 36-inch) hard copy plans will be wet-signed by the professional engineer in responsible charge. The final technical specifications will be signed and sealed and submitted to the City in electronic format (Word and PDF), and the final engineer’s estimate will be signed and sealed and submitted in electronic format (PDF). The Acknowledgement of Monument Preservation will be signed and submitted to the City.

Kimley-Horn will prepare meeting agenda and meeting materials. Kimley-Horn also will prepare meeting notes capturing action items and key next steps. This task includes up to eight (8) meetings beyond the kick-off meeting, including a field meeting with City staff to review the proposed improvements at each of the project intersections.

Given that a field diagnostic meeting has already occurred, Kimley-Horn will schedule a virtual pre-diagnostic validation meeting and an in-person field diagnostic validation meeting with the City, UPRR, CPUC, Caltrans, and the Kimley-Horn team. The pre-diagnostic meeting will be held virtually a minimum of one (1) week in advance of the field diagnostic meeting. Kimley-Horn will prepare a site map, exhibit of conceptual improvements, and agenda for both meetings, and will provide a sign- in sheet for use during the field diagnostic meeting. Kimley-Horn will prepare draft and final meeting minutes from both meetings, which will be circulated to all in attendance for review and approval. The field diagnostic meeting minutes will be the guiding document for developing the crossing improvements throughout the design phase of this project.

Construction
Bidding and construction phase engineering support will include answering City staff questions during the bid and award of the contract, review of submittals, responding to contractor requests for information (RFIs), review of contract change orders (CCOs), preparation of addenda, and preparation of record drawings.

Kimley-Horn will prepare start-up signal timing plans for the project intersections. We will calculate recommended yellow time, red time, and flashing intervals based on City standards contained in the City’s Traffic Signal Design and Operations Guide which Kimley-Horn led the development for. The proposed start-up signal timing data will be provided as signal timing sheet mark-ups and submitted to the City for review and approval. Kimley-Horn will provide field support with implementation of the signal timing and signal coordination plans. Where necessary, signal coordination plans will be prepared for up to three peak periods.

When requested, Kimley-Horn will perform the traffic signal controller and preemption operations testing as anticipated by UPRR. This could include railroad preemption interconnect bench test coordination and support to work with the City’s controller manufacturer. We’ll work with the City and UPRR to schedule the bench test and conduct the test. Kimley- Horn will provide coordination and technical support services during the field testing and implementation of the proposed railroad preemption interconnect system.

Kimley-Horn will prepare record drawings upon completion of construction. Kimley-Horn will submit the record drawing to the City for the City’s retention and use.

c. If the proposed rate is greater than two hundred percent (200%) - the accepted rate will be seventy-five percent (75%) of the proposed rate.

2. If IOAI is unable to issue a cognizant letter per paragraph E.1. above, IOAI may require CONSULTANT to submit a revised independent CPA-audited ICR and audit report within three (3) months of the effective date of the management letter. IOAI will then have up to six (6) months to review the CONSULTANT’s and/or the independent CPA’s revisions.

ARTICLE XVIII DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISES (DBE) PARTICIPATION A. CONSULTANT, subrecipient (LOCAL AGENCY), or subconsultant shall take necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that DBEs have opportunities to participate in the contract (49 CFR 26). To ensure equal participation of DBEs provided in 49 CFR 26.5, The LOCAL AGENCY shows a contract goal for DBEs. CONSULTANT shall make work available to DBEs and select work parts consistent with available DBE subconsultants and suppliers.

CONSULTANT shall meet the DBE goal shown elsewhere in these special provisions or demonstrate that they made adequate good faith efforts to meet this goal. It is CONSULTANT’s responsibility to verify that the DBE firm is certified as DBE at date of proposal opening and document the record by printing out the California Unified Certification Program (CUCP) data for each DBE firm. A list of DBEs certified by the CUCP can be found here.

All DBE participation will count toward the California Department of Transportation’s federally mandated statewide overall DBE goal. Credit for materials or supplies CONSULTANT purchases from DBEs counts towards the goal in the following manner:
 100 percent counts if the materials or supplies are obtained from a DBE manufacturer.  60 percent counts if the materials or supplies are purchased from a DBE regular dealer.  Only fees, commissions, and charges for assistance in the procurement and delivery of materials or supplies count if obtained from a DBE that is neither a manufacturer nor regular dealer. 49CFR26.55 defines "manufacturer" and "regular dealer."

This AGREEMENT is subject to 49 CFR Part 26 entitled “Participation by Disadvantaged Business Enterprises in Department of Transportation Financial Assistance Programs”. CONSULTANTs who enter into a federally-funded agreement will assist the LOCAL AGENCY in a good faith effort to achieve California's statewide overall DBE goal.

B. The goal for DBE participation for this AGREEMENT is __6_%. Participation by DBE CONSULTANT or subconsultants shall be in accordance with information contained in Exhibit 10- O2: Consultant Contract DBE Commitment attached hereto and incorporated as part of the AGREEMENT. If a DBE subconsultant is unable to perform, CONSULTANT must make a good faith effort to replace him/her with another DBE subconsultant, if the goal is not otherwise met.

C. CONSULTANT can meet the DBE participation goal by either documenting commitments to DBEs to meet the AGREEMENT goal, or by documenting adequate good faith efforts to meet the AGREEMENT goal. An adequate good faith effort means that the CONSULTANT must show that it took all necessary and reasonable steps to achieve a DBE goal that, by their scope, intensity, and appropriateness to the objective, could reasonably be expected to meet the DBE goal. If CONSULTANT has not met the DBE goal, complete and submit Exhibit 15-H: DBE Information –

G. A DBE is only eligible to be counted toward the AGREEMENT goal if it performs a commercially useful function (CUF) on the AGREEMENT. CUF must be evaluated on an agreement by agreement basis. A DBE performs a Commercially Useful Function (CUF) when it is responsible for execution of the work of the AGREEMENT and is carrying out its responsibilities by actually performing, managing, and supervising the work involved. To perform a CUF, the DBE must also be responsible, with respect to materials and supplies used on the AGREEMENT, for negotiating price, determining quality and quantity, ordering the material and installing (where applicable), and paying for the material itself. To determine whether a DBE is performing a CUF, evaluate the amount of work subcontracted, industry practices, whether the amount the firm is to be paid under the AGREEMENT is commensurate with the work it is actually performing, and other relevant factors.

H. A DBE does not perform a CUF if its role is limited to that of an extra participant in a transaction, AGREEMENT, or project through which funds are passed in order to obtain the appearance of DBE participation. In determining whether a DBE is such an extra participant, examine similar transactions, particularly those in which DBEs do not participate.

I. If a DBE does not perform or exercise responsibility for at least thirty percent (30%) of the total cost of its AGREEMENT with its own work force, or the DBE subcontracts a greater portion of the work of the AGREEMENT than would be expected on the basis of normal industry practice for the type of work involved, it will be presumed that it is not performing a CUF.

J. CONSULTANT shall maintain records of materials purchased or supplied from all subcontracts entered into with certified DBEs. The records shall show the name and business address of each DBE or vendor and the total dollar amount actually paid each DBE or vendor, regardless of tier.

The records shall show the date of payment and the total dollar figure paid to all firms. DBE CONSULTANT’s shall also show the date of work performed by their own forces along with the corresponding dollar value of the work.

K. If a DBE subconsultant is decertified duri ng the life of the AGREEMENT, the decertified subconsultant shall notify CONSULTANT in writing with the date of decertification. If a subconsultant becomes a certified DBE during the life of the AGREEMENT, the subconsultant shall notify CONSULTANT in writing with the date of certification. Any changes should be reported to LOCAL AGENCY’s Contract Administrator within thirty (30) calendar days.

L. After submitting an invoice for reimbursement that includes a payment to a DBE, but no later than the 10
th of the following month, the prime contractor/consultant shall complete and email the Exhibit 9- F: Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Running Tally of Payments to [email protected] with a copy to the Agency.

M. Any subcontract entered into as a result of this AGREEMENT shall contain all of the provisions of this section.

ADOPT RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE DOWNTOWN DECORATIVE STREETLIGHT LED

CONVERSION

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution to:

1. Approve Notice of Exemption No. NOE28-22 under the California Environmental Quality Act for the Downtown Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion, Project No. WD22016.

2. Approve the plans and specifications for the Downtown Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion, Project No. WD22016.

3. Award a Construction Contract in the amount of $597,852 to Tim Paxin’s Pacific Excavation, Inc., dba Pacific Excavation, of Elk Grove, CA, for the Downtown Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion, Project No. WD22016.

It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of this resolution.

Summary
The project will convert a portion of the City’s decorative metal halide (MH) streetlights to light- emitting diode (LED) luminaires. MH streetlights use substantially more energy and converting to LED luminaires will lower ongoing operating costs. The project includes converting 184 decorative streetlights at various locations throughout downtown Stockton (Attachment A).

On October 13, 2022, the City received seven bids for this project. Staff recommends award of the Construction Contract to the lowest responsive bidder, Tim Paxin’s Pacific Excavation, Inc., dba Pacific Excavation (Pacific Excavation), in the amount of $597,852. Staff also recommends that Council adopt a resolution approving Notice of Exemption No. NOE28-22 under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and approving the plans and specifications for the project.

Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2023 and be completed by summer 2023, weather permitting.

DISCUSSION
Background
The City has an inventory of approximately 19,000 streetlights. There are approximately 2,600 decorative MH streetlights. Recent improvements to LED technology have increased efficiency and City of Stockton Printed on 2/28/2023Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
356
File #: 23-0010, Version: 1
reduced product cost, making LED streetlights the preferred light source. LED streetlights use less energy and have a longer luminaire lifetime than MH, reducing ongoing electricity and general maintenance costs. Staff recognized the potential savings to be achieved by converting the decorative streetlight inventory and developed a plan to convert the high-wattage MH located throughout downtown Stockton (Attachment A). Conversion of these lights generates the most significant reduction in electrical consumption with an average of 60 percent, which yields the greatest financial and carbon footprint impact.

On July 26, 2016, Council adopted a Community Workforce and Training Agreement (CWTA). The CWTA became effective August 25, 2016, and applies to all Public Works projects over $1 million that are bid after that date. On July 16, 2019, by Motion No. 2019-07-16-1403, Council extended the CWTA term to August 25, 2024. The CWTA was not applied to this project as the engineer’s estimate was less than $1 million.

Present Situation
On September 22, 2022, the Downtown Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion, Project No.

WD22016, was advertised for bids. On October 13, 2022, seven bids were received with the following results:

COMPANY NAME BID AMOUNT ADJUSTED BID AMOUNT

File #: 23-0010, Version: 1
The requirements of the Stockton Municipal Code (SMC) section 3.68.090, Local Business Preference, apply to this project; however, all bidders are located outside of the City of Stockton and San Joaquin County and are not entitled to a bid preference. The Local Employment Ordinance, SMC section 3.68.095, also applies to this contract.

The bid from Pacific Excavation, the lowest responsive bidder, is regular in all respects. Pacific Excavation has the proper license to perform the work. Staff recommends Council approve the plans and specifications for the project and award a Construction Contract to Pacific Excavation of Elk Grove, CA, in the amount of $597,852.

The project is in conformance with the City’s General Plan, pursuant to California Government Code section 65402, and is categorically exempt from the requirements of CEQA as specified under Section 15301(c) of the CEQA guidelines. As a result, the project has been granted a Categorical Exemption. The activities related to this project constitute a discretionary project under the City’s jurisdiction and qualifies as a project that does not have a significant effect on the environment. The resolution will approve the filing of Notice of Exemption No. NOE28-22 under CEQA.

Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2023 and be completed by summer 2023, weather permitting.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Council approved discretionary funding in the amount of $750,000 on November 16, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-11-16-1501, and appropriated funding to the Downtown Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion, Project No. WD22016, Account No. 4570-000-590100-300-301-30-45-000-000.

There is sufficient funding in Project No. WD22016 to award a Construction Contract to Pacific Excavation in the amount of $597,852.

There is no impact to the City’s General Fund or any other unrestricted fund as a result of taking the recommended actions.
