Recommendations for the Management of Fecal Accidents at Public Pools
1. When a fecal accident occurs, close the pool(s) and instruct all pool users to exit the pool(s) immediately. Do not allow anyone to enter the contaminated pool(s) until all the following steps are completed.
2. Remove as much of the fecal material as possible using a net or scoop and dispose of it in a sanitary manner. Clean and disinfect the net or scoop (e.g., after cleaning, leave the net or scoop immersed in the pool during the disinfection period). Vacuuming stool from the pool is not recommended. If the pool is vacuumed, waste should be directed to a sanitary sewer and not through the filtration system.
3. A. If the fecal accident involves a “formed stool” (solid, not liquid), raise the free available chlorine concentration to 2 mg/L (parts per million) and maintain the pH between 7.2 -
7.5 for at least 25 minutes. If a free available chlorine concentration of 3 mg/L is present, the time can be reduced to 19 minutes.
B. If the fecal accident involves “diarrhea or a loose stool,” raise the free available chlorine concentration to 20 mg/L and maintain the pH between 7.2 and 7.5 for at least 8 hours.
This is equivalent to a CT value of 9,600. The CT value is the concentration of chlorine in mg/L multiplied by the time in minutes. In this case, a 20 mg/L concentration of chlorine maintained in a pool for 8 hours or 480 minutes will result in a CT value of 9,600 (480 minutes X 20 mg/L). Any combination of chlorine concentration and time resulting in a CT value of 9,600 or greater can be used to achieve disinfection.
For fecal accidents involving “diarrhea or loose stools,” the filter should be thoroughly backwashed to a sanitary sewer after the CT value has been reached and before the pool is reopened.
4. During the entire treatment period, ensure that the pH is maintained between 7.2 and 7.5.
The pH may be affected if additional chlorine is added to the pool.
5. Ensure that the filtration system is operating, and the proper free available chlorine concentration is maintained throughout the treatment period. Ensure free available chlorine concentrations are found throughout all areas of the pool or co-circulating pools by sampling in at least three widely spaced locations away from return water inlets.
6. The pool may be reopened after the required time/concentration or CT value has been achieved and the free available chlorine residual is below 5.0 mg/L.
7. If the pool is a low volume pool, such as a spa pool or wading pool, the pool can be Exhibit 1
252
2023 POOLS & LIFEGUARD MANAGEMENT LLC. AQUATICS FACILITIES AGREEMENT
drained. he pools should be refilled, the water balanced, and the proper time/concentration or CT value achieved before being reopened.
8. Establish a fecal accident log. Document each fecal accident by recording the following information:
a. Date
b. Time of the event
c. Formed stool or diarrhea.
d. Free available chlorine concentration and pH at the time of observation of the event e. Free available chlorine and pH before reopening the pool. f. Contact time.
g. Procedures followed to respond to the fecal accident, including the process used to increase the free chlorine residual if necessary.
9. In the event of contamination with vomitus in a pool, the procedures for a “formed stool” (3A above) should be followed.
Notes:
• Fecal accident pool closure procedures are based on recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
• All contact times assume a water temperature of 25°C (77°F). • Theoretical Pool Closure Times for 99.9% Inactivation of Giardia Cysts by Free Available Chlorine, pH7.5, 25°C derived from the EPA’s Disinfection Profiling and Benchmarking Guidance Manual.
• The “short pool closure time” is the chlorine concentration/contact time theoretically required to inactivate Giardia cysts. The “long pool closure time” is the chlorine concentration/contact time theoretically required to inactivate Cryptosporidium oocysts. • Non-chlorine disinfectants are not addressed and should not be used because there is limited pathogen inactivation data available for these compounds. • The impact of chlorine stabilizers such as chlorinated isocyanurates on pathogen inactivation and disinfection measurement is unclear and warrants further investigation. Increased contact time may be desirable. • Many conventional test kits cannot measure free available chlorine in a range that includes 20 mg/L. Use chlorine test strips, kits that can measure in this range or make dilutions using a standard DPD (N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine) test kit and chlorine- free water. High levels of chlorine may damage pool equipment. Exercise caution or consult with an experienced aquatic professional.

In 2022, the City adopted a Homeless Action Plan which identified the development of housing opportunities for homeless individuals as the highest priority. Locally, the City has established an ambitious goal to create at least 200 new units of homeless housing and increase the number of people exiting homelessness into permanent housing. To date three Homekey projects have been awarded to the City of Stockton, representing 124 new housing units. · Central Valley Low Income Housing Corporation
Town Center Studios (40 units) - first phase complete
· Housing Authority of San Joaquin County
Calaveras Quarters (69 units) - under construction

· $43 million for projects in the San Joaquin Valley region · $75 million for projects that prioritize youth
· $73.5 million in discretionary reserve for highly qualified projects from oversubscribed areas Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis, starting April 24, 2023. Projects must demonstrate:

Present Situation
In January, the City of Stockton issued a press release and circulated notification requesting qualified development partners to submit Letters of Interest to act as co-applicants with the City of Stockton to apply for Homekey Round 3 funds.
Letters of Interest were received from:
· Upholdings, an affordable housing development firm based in Fresno CA. They have over 10 years of development experience and proposed a project converting the Econolodge Motel. A signed purchase and sale agreement was provided demonstrating site control. · Central Valley Low Income Housing (CVLIHC), a local non-profit providing affordable housing for low income and homeless individuals. CVLIHC is in the process of developing Town Center Studios, in partnership with STAND affordable housing. Several properties were proposed, but site control is not yet secured.
Subsequently, the Economic Development Department met with both respondents to review project feasibility and suitability for the Homekey funding.
Based upon this review, the Economic Development Department is recommending that the City of Stockton, in partnership with UPholdings Stockton LLP as a co-applicant, jointly submit a Homekey Round 3 Project Application to the Department of Housing and Community Development and allocate an amount up to, but not to exceed, $9,720,757 in City allocated grant funds as match funding to the project if approved by HCD.
The City has dedicated funds that can be applied to this project without impacting the City General Fund, including:
American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA)
· Serving the hardest-hit communities and families, including low-income and socially vulnerable communities experiencing the most severe health impacts.
Investments in housing and neighborhoods, such as services to address individuals experiencing homelessness, affordable housing development, housing vouchers, and residential counseling and housing navigation assistance to facilitate moves to neighborhoods with high economic opportunity.
The $1.8 million in funding in approved motion 2021-09-14-1501 and as discussed in ARPA Council update in February will reallocated to support homeless housing.
Homeless Housing Assistance and Prevention (HHAP)
· Delivery of permanent housing and innovative housing solutions such as hotel and motel conversions.
· Operating subsidies in new and existing affordable or supportive housing units, emergency shelters, and navigation centers. Operating subsidies may include operating reserves.

File #: 23-0185, Version: 1
Low to Moderate Income Housing Fund (LMIHF)
· A locally managed set-aside fund intended to preserve, upgrade and create housing that is affordable to very low-, low- and moderate-income households.
Project Description
The project will convert the existing 124 room Econolodge Motel into a residential apartment building, with a mix of efficiency, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom units. Preliminary estimates are based on the creation of 76 - 85 apartment units, located at:
1625 French Camp Turnpike
Stockton CA 95206
Assessor Parcel Number: 165-040-190
Target populations are people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness. Data shows that of the 893 unsheltered homeless individuals living in Stockton, approximately 10% are older adults (89) and 35% are women (312). In Stockton, nearly half of those experiencing homelessness have been without a stable place to live for over a year (chronically homeless). Additionally, there are an estimated 160 families with children living in shelters, motels, or other transitional units.
The City also has concerns about the high number of youth ages 18-24 living in shelters, transitional housing programs, sleeping in their cars, or couch surfing and anticipates at least 20 units being occupied by young adults. The 2022 Point In Time (PIT) count identified 96 homeless youth, including 27 families headed by young adults. More recently, street outreach teams identified and enrolled 52, previously unconnected, homeless children and youth into the local Homeless Management Information System during the first three months of 2023.
The property features a swimming pool, communal recreation space, a group meeting room, and private offices for on-site staff, including a case manager. It is situated on nearly three acres and has the potential to serve as a site for further affordable housing.
The City is currently in discussions with potential service partners who have expressed support for the project and indicated a likelihood of placing clients into the housing with wraparound case management.
Potential partners include:
· Aspiranet
· Prevail
· St. Mary’s Dining Room
· Central Valley Low Income Housing
· San Joaquin County Aging Services Division
· San Joaquin Health Centers
Leasing will be conducted in partnership with local homeless serving agencies and through the coordinated entry system. It is anticipated that most tenants will use a housing choice voucher to offset a portion of their rent.

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING AGREEMENTS WITH UBERDISPLAYS, LLC, KEY CODE MEDIA, INC., AND MUSCO SPORTS LIGHTING, LLC, TO REPLACE THE ARENA VIDEO BOARD
DISPLAYS, BROADCASTING, AND LIGHTING EQUIPMENT
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Stockton City Council adopt a Resolution:
1. Authorizing the City Manager, or designee, to execute agreements (attached as exhibits to the Resolution), to replace the Stockton Arena video board displays, broadcast, and house/game lighting equipment, with the following Contractors:
a. UberDisplays, LLC
b. Key Code Media, Inc.
c. Musco Sports Lighting, LLC
2. Authorizing the City Manager, or designee, to appropriate an additional $450,000 in funding and expenditure authority to CIP Project EV22606, from the American Rescue Plan Act Contingency Fund;
3. Finding an exception to the competitive bidding process pursuant to SMC Section 3.68.070 through use of a competitive request for proposals; and

Summary
Approval of this Resolution will authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute agreements with UberDisplays, LLC, Key Code Media, Inc., and Musco Sports Lighting, LLC, allowing the replacement of the video board displays, broadcast equipment, and house/game lighting equipment, hereinafter referred to as Arena Videoboard and System Project.
DISCUSSION
Background
The current video display, broadcast, and house/game lighting technology at the Stockton Arena are original to the building (2005), beyond useful life, and near critical failure. In understanding the estimated expectancy of technology and equipment life, anticipated costs and negative impact due to City of Stockton Printed on 4/25/2023Page 1 of 4

File #: 23-0273, Version: 1
failure, City staff coordinated with ASM Global (ASM), City’s venue management operator, to find an experienced consultant to define the scope of replacement equipment and system. The City authorized ASM to partner with Anthony James Partners (AJP) for services that included generating a technical scope of work and budgetary project estimate. AJP will also assist City staff with the procurement process and project oversight, through installation. AJP is an Owner’s representative audio visual (AV) and Design Consultant for professional sport franchise owners, higher education, venue management firms, Architecture and Engineering (A&E) firms, and governments; working in the industry for 15 years.
Utilizing AJP’s estimated project budget based on similar equipment in equivalent projects, $2.5 million in funding for the Arena Video Equipment & Scoreboard Project was appropriated by Council in 2022. $1.5 million was appropriated by motion 2022-05-24-1502 (Attachment A), as part of the ARPA - Uplift Downtown Initiative. The remaining balance of $1 million was authorized by Resolution 2022-06-21-1601 (Attachment B- Sections 20 and 21), and allocated from the Entertainment Venues fund balance.
Present Situation
On December 27, 2022, the City released an RFP (PUR 23-016) to identify qualified contractors with experience to upgrade video boards, broadcasting control room equipment, new ribbon boards, house/game lighting equipment and all supporting infrastructure. Based on the complexity of the project, a three (3) package approach was requested in the RFP:
· Package I: LED Video Display Upgrades - this includes the replacement of the center-hung video boards as well as the addition of ribbon boards that run below suite level and are seen across the arena from each side.
· Package II: Broadcast, Cable & Entertainment Lighting Upgrades - This includes the operating system for all components and the control room.
· Package III: House and Game Lighting - this includes the replacement of lights in the bowl of the arena creating improvement for players, fans, operation/control, and energy efficiency.
The three (3) package- approach (displays, broadcast, and lighting) enabled the City the right to award to one comprehensive contractor for all services or to specific contractors for each project, whichever was deemed in the City’s best interest.
In total, five (5) proposals were received on February 9, 2023. Three (3) proposals for Package I, and one each for Packages II and III. A selection panel including representation from Economic Development and IT Departments, AJP, and ASM, reviewed and scored the proposals. Based on the scoring, the following proponents were selected:
· Package I: UberDisplay, LLC
Established in 2012, UberDisplays provides state-of-the-art LED displays for sport and entertainment venues. Their proprietary LED panels are designed to enhance the fan experience by providing clear images in facilities such as Bridgestone Arena, Landers Center, and Eastern Michigan University.
City of Stockton Printed on 4/25/2023Page 2 of 4
powered by Legistar™
284
File #: 23-0273, Version: 1
· Package II: Key Code Media, Inc.
Established in 2001, Key Code Media has grown and expanded to become a formidable national System Integrator, with successful projects in excess of $15 million, 700 projects completed, and thousands of equipment items purchased/installed each year. Such projects include University of Oregon and Wyoming, Dallas Cowboys, and UCLA Athletics. · Package III: Musco Sports Lighting, LLC.
Musco has 40+ years of experience specializing in sports lighting. Musco’s LED technology has been installed in NHL and NBA facilities across the country. Over the last three (3) years, projects include facilities for Oklahoma City Thunder, University of Nebraska, Crypto.Com Arena, Home of the Los Angeles Kings and Clippers.
This project is aligned with the initiative’s goal to enhance and promote greater economic activity in the downtown core. Investment into the Stockton Arena supports the Uplift Downtown Initiative, and the goals of the adopted Economic Development Strategic Action Plan. This investment will create additional experiences for the community, drive tourism, and increase sponsorship opportunities through recruitment of additional events, such as sports tournaments.
The following findings justify and support the exception to competitive bidding, as stated under SMC Section 3.68.070:
1. Due to the specific nature of the project and industry, use of the RFP process is appropriate since it relies on evaluation of a service provider’s established professional experience, conduct, and performance as it relates to the installation of video boards, broadcast, and lighting systems.
2. The project involves a specialized field, and its success requires an experienced professional who has successfully implemented and performed such operations.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
All expenses related to the Arena Video Equipment & Scoreboard Project, will be processed through the Capital Project No. EV22606.
The total funding obligation for all three agreements is $2,928,461; specifically as follows:
Contractor Not to Exceed Contract Amount
UberDisplays, LLC $1,119,459
Key Code Media, Inc. $1,200,502
Musco Sports Lighting, LLC $608,500
Original budget authority was $2.5 million, actual proposals require an aggregate project amount of $2,928,461, exceeding already-approved funding by $428,461. The increase in project cost is attributed to unforeseen increases in equipment, material, and labor. Additional budget and spending authority in the amount of $450,000, is required to complete all aspects of the project and City of Stockton Printed on 4/25/2023Page 3 of 4

APPROVE FINDINGS AND EXECUTE CONTRACT AGREEMENTS FOR THE PURCHASE OF
WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT CHEMICALS THROUGH THE BAY AREA CHEMICAL
CONSORTIUM
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution:
1. Approving findings in support of an exception to the competitive bidding process.
2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute five (5) contracts for the purchase of chemicals for water and wastewater treatment for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
It is also recommended that the City Manager be authorized to take appropriate and necessary actions to carry out the purpose and intent of the resolution.
Summary
In 2013, the City of Stockton (City) joined the Bay Area Chemical Consortium (BACC) to benefit from bulk product pricing for the purchase of water and wastewater treatment chemicals. The BACC is a group of 62 public agencies within eight regions located throughout the Central Valley and Bay Area that coordinate chemical bids to obtain the best possible bulk bid prices through a competitive process. This will be the tenth year the Municipal Utilities Department (MUD) has participated in the BACC bid process. Over the last several years, significant cost savings have been realized by the City’s participation in the BACC. The chemicals to be purchased and the recommended suppliers are:
1. Hill Brothers Chemical Company of Brea, California for the purchase of Aqueous Ammonia at $2.38 per gallon (Exhibit 1 to the Resolution).
2. Univar USA, Inc. of Kent, Washington for the purchase of Sodium Bisulfite at $3.045 per gallon (Exhibit 2 to the Resolution).
3. Brenntag Pacific, Inc. of Santa Fe Springs, California for the purchase of Sodium Hydroxide (25%) at $987.50 per dry ton and Sodium Hydroxide (50%) at $875.00 per dry ton (Exhibit 3 to the Resolution).
4. Hasa, Inc. of Santa Clarita, California for the purchase of Sodium Hypochlorite at $2.9669 per gallon (Exhibit 4 to the Resolution).
5. Univar USA, Inc. of Kent, Washington for the purchase of Citric Acid at $15.00 per gallon (Exhibit 5 to the Resolution).
The Council action will approve findings of an exception to the competitive bidding process and will authorize the City Manager to execute five (5) contracts for the purchase of water and wastewater City of Stockton Printed on 4/25/2023Page 1 of 4

treatment chemicals to the most responsive, responsible, and competitive vendor for each chemical at the specified unit price. The term of each contract will be for one year, with options to extend the contracts on a year-to-year basis, not to exceed three yearly renewals.
DISCUSSION
Background
Various chemicals are necessary for water and wastewater treatment processes. The chemicals induce changes in the water or wastewater to reduce hazardous conditions and/or remove specific impurities. These chemical and physical changes are necessary to meet drinking water quality standards and wastewater discharge permit requirements.
To obtain a potential reduction in the cost of water and wastewater treatment chemicals, the City joined the Bay Area Chemical Consortium (BACC) in 2013. The BACC is a group of 62 public agencies from eight regions located throughout the Central Valley and Bay Area that coordinate competitive bidding for chemical contracts. The purpose of the BACC is to allow agencies to combine the chemical purchases to create a bulk quantity for bid pricing. The BACC awards a contract to the lowest overall bidder for each chemical in each region. The BACC members pay a lump sum of approximately $500 per bid to facilitate the bidding process. Participants are encouraged not to vary from the lowest overall bid, as it would undermine the prices quoted for bulk quantities.
The MUD participated in the preparation of the bid specifications and selected the specific chemicals required at the Regional Wastewater Control Facility (RWCF), the Delta Water Treatment Plant (DWTP), at wells throughout the City, and in the Wastewater Collections System. The combined solicitations of all the agencies are a cooperative purchase agreement that offers vendors an opportunity to sell larger quantities of their products, resulting in lower prices for the agencies.
Present Situation
For 2023, the Bay Area Clean Water Agencies (BACWA), on behalf of the BACC, has coordinated all bid specification preparations and advertisements. The invitation to bid for each chemical was advertised by the BACWA in the Alameda Times Star newspaper on January 26, 2023. BACWA, as the coordinating agency, received bids electronically through PlanetBids.com by February 23, 2023.
Results were then released to the BACC members.
The lowest bids of interest to the City are shown in the following table:

The chemical industry has experienced widespread price increases over the past few years, predominantly due to material and labor shortages, production disruption, and increased transportation costs. With the exception of citric acid, the increased cost to produce and deliver the necessary treatment chemicals are reflected in the price increases shown in the table above.
The lowest responsible, responsive bidder was determined by the overall lowest cost provided to all the BACC member agencies in each region. Contracts are awarded to the lowest overall bidder to all the agencies within the designated regions to take advantage of the lower bulk quantity bids.
Choosing a bid other than the lowest overall bid undermines the intent of the consortium and negates the value of participation in the consortium.
Findings
Stockton Municipal Code Section 3.68.070(A)(5) provides an exception to the competitive bidding requirements when the City Council approves findings that support and justify the purchase through a cooperative purchasing agreement.
Proposed findings to support this purchase are:
1. The Bay Area Chemical Consortium (BACC) is a group of 62 public agencies that coordinates their chemical bids to obtain the best possible bulk bid price.
2. The BACC conducts a competitive bid process to obtain the best possible bulk bid price.
3. The City of Stockton joined the BACC to participate in the public bidding of chemicals necessary for water and wastewater treatment processes.
4. The bid specification used by the BACC has been reviewed and determined to be compatible with City of Stockton standards.
5. Participation in the BACC cooperative purchase agreement best serves the City by saving money on larger scale chemical purchases.
6. All five (5) of the proposed contracts are cooperative purchasing agreements for the purchase of supplies or services through other governmental jurisdictions or public agencies.
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
Funds will be available following Council approval of the FY 2023-24 budget for the procurement of each chemical for FY 2023-24, from the Wastewater Utility funds and Water Utility Funds, and as allocated annually in the table below:

2.16 Method
of Award
Bids may be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder for each listed region meeting t he specifications for bulk loads for the chemical. The lowest responsive bidder for this chemical will be determined for each region listed on the Bid Form. The bidder that meets the specifications and submits the lowest overall bid price for a particular region may be awarded the bid by the participating agencies in that region, assuming the bid is determined by BACC to be complete and in compliance with the bid requirements. The lowest overall bid price for each region will be determined by multiplying the estimated annual quantity for each participating agency within the particular region by the bid prices for the region, and adding up the aggregate cost. BACC has the right to delete terms or options from the bid contract documents, and reserves the right to reject any and all bids and to waive irregularities in said bids. The following is a non-inclusive list of criteria that must be used in award of the bid:
a. Unit cost of the chemical
b. Produ
ct specifications
c. Warranties or standards of quality
d. Capabilities to deliver product throughout the contract term e. Bidder’s reputation, competency, and previous customer service record f. Third party hauling company’s reputation, competency, and previous customer service record (if applicable)
g. Fully executed non-collusion affidavit
2.17 Disqualification of Duplicate or Collusive Bidders More than one bid proposal from an individual, a firm or partnership, a corporation or a n association under the same or different names will not be considered. Reasonable grounds for believing that any bidder is interested in more than one bid for the bid contemplated will cause rejection of all bids in which such bidder is interested. If there is reason for believing that collusion exists among the bidders, any and all bids may be rejected. Bidders must execute and submit with their bid the Non -Collusion Affidavit included in the bid document.
2.18 Identical Bids
In the case of tied or identical bids corresponding to the proposed unit costs, BACC reserves the right to award the bid based on additional criteria. If a tied bid is not rejected for any reason as described in paragraph 2.16 Method of Award, then any additional costs described in the “Specific Deviations” such as short load adders, will be used to determine the lowest responsive bidder. If considering additional costs as described in the “ Specific Deviations” still doesn’t produce a winning bidder (i.e. if the tied bidders quote identical short load adder prices), then any exceptions or conditions described in the “ Specific Deviations” will be considered in an effort to determine the lowest responsive bidder. If the latter still fails to produce a winning bidder , then BACC will draw lots by placing the names of the tied bidders in a hat and drawing a name. If drawing lots is deemed necessary, BACC will schedule a time to draw lots and the tied bidders will be invited to attend and witness the drawing.
