Item No.9B
TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Jaime Boscarino, Finance Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Thousand Oaks Public Financing Authority Annual Update RECOMMENDATION:
1. Receive and file annual update.
2. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time to prepare the report is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget.
BACKGROUND:
The Thousand Oaks Public Financing Authority (Authority) is a Joint Powers Agency (JPA) formed in 1988 by a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement (Agreement) between the City and the Thousand Oaks Redevelopment Agency (Agency). The Authority is authorized under the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling Act of 1985 and was created to provide for the financing of public capital improvements through the leasing, acquisition, and/or purchase of City and Agency debt obligations.
The Authority Board of Directors (Board) are the members of City Council. The Board appointed the following officers: Chair is City Mayor; Vice-Chair is City Mayor Pro Tem; Secretary is City Clerk; Treasurer is City Finance Director/Treasurer; and Executive Director is City Manager.
The Authority’s regular meeting schedule coincides with City Council meetings. If no Authority agenda is posted, the regular meeting is considered canceled without any further action from the Authority. The Agreement, however, requires at least one regular meeting per year.
Redevelopment agencies were dissolved, effective February 1, 2012, and Item No.9C
TOPFA Annual Update
July 11, 2023
successor agencies were appointed to wind down the affairs of the agencies. The City chose to serve as the successor agency to the Agency. Pursuant to Section
8.08 of the Agreement, the Agreement is binding upon the successors of the City or the Agency.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
To comply with the requirement that the Authority hold at least one regular meeting a year, staff has prepared this summary of the Authority and update on its activity.
The Authority has issued several bonds and purchased numerous local obligations over the years. Currently, only the 2020 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds (Municipal Facilities Projects) remain outstanding. This bond issue refunded previous debt issues used to construct, repair, and improve the main library. In addition, prior bond proceeds were used for the construction of the Newbury Park Branch Library, Goebel Adult Community Center, Teen Center, and Conejo Creek Park North.
As of June 30, 2023, the outstanding principal amount is $6,760,000. The 2020 bonds mature on June 1, 2031.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goal:
C. Operate City government in a fiscally and managerially responsible and prudent manner to ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks remains one of California's most desirable places to live, work, visit, recreate, and raise a family.

TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Jaime Boscarino, Finance Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: CI 5527 Conejo Canyons Bridge Standby Letter of Credit RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize Finance Director to apply for Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit (Letter of Credit) as required by California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) for performance security in an amount not to exceed $250,000.
2. Delegate authority to the Finance Director to complete Wells Fargo Bank Letter of Credit application and administer Letter of Credit, including renewals and periodic reductions, until canceled by CDFW.
3. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. The Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA) Board has reserved $250,000 in the Woolsey Fire settlement proceeds to reimburse Wells Fargo for the issuance costs and for any draws on the Letter of Credit. Minimal staff time to manage the Letter of Credit is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget.
BACKGROUND:
The City and COSCA are working in collaboration to construct a bridge spanning the Arroyo Conejo Creek southwest of Hill Canyon Road in the Conejo Canyons Open Space (Attachment #1). The bridge will connect two COSCA trails systems, provide for emergency access to open space, divert visitors from the Hill Canyon Treatment Plant access road onto safer trails, and provide secondary access for City staff between the Treatment Plant and the City’s Municipal Service Center.
Construction is anticipated to begin in fall of 2023.
Since the bridge project will have minor temporary and permanent impacts to natural resources, it is subject to the permitting authority of the CDFW. CDFW has issued a Streambed Alteration Agreement that sets forth the conditions under Item No.9D
CI5527 Conejo Canyons Bridge Standby Letter of Credit
July 11, 2023
which the project may proceed. Among the requirements is the mitigation of environmental impacts through the restoration of nearby degraded habitat areas.
These requirements are typical for projects such as the construction of bridges, and COSCA staff has prepared a formal mitigation plan.
To ensure the City, as permittee, completes the required mitigation work, CDFW requires financial security equal to the anticipated costs for the mitigation activities.
For this project, the security will be in the form of a Letter of Credit.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
If approved, the City will apply for a Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Letter of Credit as required by CDFW. The amount of the Letter of Credit is based on the mitigation costs and will be in an amount not to exceed $250,000. Staff expects that CDFW will reduce the amount of the Letter of Credit over the five-year mitigation period as restoration project milestones are met.
Because the Letter of Credit is expected to remain outstanding for five years, current funds must be reserved for any draws on the Letter of Credit. COSCA has appropriated and encumbered Woolsey Fire settlement funds allocated for invasive plant management and land restoration to be held as that reserve. The reserved funds will not be used unless the Letter of Credit is drawn on by CDFW following a failure of the City and COSCA to complete the required work or a failure by the City to renew the Letter of Credit until the Letter of Credit is canceled by CDFW. The area to be restored is small and the restoration plan provides clear direction to achieve project success. Staff does not anticipate that draws on the Letter of Credit will be necessary.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goals:
C. Operate City government in a fiscally and managerially responsible and prudent manner to ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks remains one of California's most desirable places to live, work, visit, recreate, and raise a family.
F. Provide and enhance essential infrastructure to ensure that the goals and policies of the Thousand Oaks General Plan are carried out and the City retains its role and reputation as a leader in protecting the environment and preserving limited natural resources.

Item No.9D
TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Kelvin Parker, Community Development Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: California Automated Permit Processing Program Grant RECOMMENDATION:
1. Accept California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program Grant in a not-to-exceed amount of $80,000 for implementation and compliance with Senate Bill (SB) 379 (Wiener, 2022).
2. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time to prepare the report is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget. $80,000 is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget and the costs for the configuration and implementation of the software and staff training to comply with SB 379 will be fully offset by the grant.
BACKGROUND:
Senate Bill 129, Budget Act of 2021, provides $20 million in State funding through the California Energy Commission (CEC) to support the CalAPP grant program which helps reimburse cities for the cost of establishing an online solar permitting system. CalAPP is intended to encourage local governments to enhance permitting processes and accelerate processing and turnaround time with an automated system.
SolarAPP+ is a web-based platform that local governments are eligible to use for residential solar installation permits. This software was developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The only CalAPP-approved SolarAPP+ software vendor currently is Alliance for Sustainable Energy, LLC (Alliance). The SolarAPP+ web tool is available to the City through a no-cost agreement with Alliance.
Item No.9E
CalAPP Program Grant
July 11, 2023
Additionally, SB 379 (Wiener, 2022) requires all cities and counties in California to implement an online, automated permitting platform. SolarAPP+ automates and standardizes building permit processes for simple residential rooftop solar systems. The platform asks the contractor a series of questions to verify the solar system’s design meets State regulations and runs an automated code compliance check. If the plan complies with all the requirements, it automatically issues a permit so the installation of the solar system can begin.
SB 379 requires a city, or county with a population greater than 50,000, to implement the requirements of SB 379 by September 30, 2023. Grant funding has been made available to assist in developing, setting up, and implementing the automated platform.
Cities are required to begin reporting annually to the CEC within one year of implementing an online, automated solar permitting system. This annual reporting requirement will sunset on June 30, 2034, unless extended by legislation.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Staff applied for, and the City was awarded, an $80,000 grant to implement SolarAPP+ (Attachment #1). This web-based application is the only software available currently and will allow residential contractors to submit and pay for their solar permit application online, track their projects, schedule inspections, and receive final sign-off after installation.
The streamlining effort is a solution only for licensed contractors working on residential properties. This is designed to facilitate faster permitting for solar panel installation. This technology is currently developing and is emerging to establish compliance with permit requirements. The grant is structured for the City to receive reimbursement for system configuration, consultant development, staff training, and integration into the existing land management system. Staff has an existing agreement in place with Park Consulting Group Corporation to assist with the system configuration and integration.
The reporting to the CEC must include:
• The number of permits issued for residential solar energy systems and residential energy storage systems paired with residential solar energy systems; and
• The relevant characteristics of those systems.
Item No.9E

COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goals:
B. Provide municipal government leadership which is open and responsive to residents, and is characterized by ethical behavior, stability, promoting public trust, transparency, confidence in the future, and cooperative interaction among civic leaders, residents, business representatives, and staff, while recognizing and respecting legitimate differences of opinion on critical issues facing the City.
C. Operate City government in a fiscally and managerially responsible and prudent manner to ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks remains one of California's most desirable places to live, work, visit, recreate, and raise a family.

Item No.9E
March 2023 Page 1 of 5 APP-22-164
City of Thousand Oaks
California Automated Permit Processing (CalAPP) Program ATTACHMENT 2 – Terms and Conditions
Added language appears in bold underlined font and deleted language appears in strikethrough and within square brackets.
1. Background and Authority for this Grant
California Senate Bill 129 (2021) included an appropriation to the California Energy Commission (CEC) to support a grant program for cities, counties, or cities and counties to establish online solar permitting.
2. Documents Incorporated by Reference and Priority
Incorporated by reference into this agreement are the following documents:
A. Grant Funding Opportunity (GFO) 21-402.
B. Recipient’s application to CalAPP.
As between and the incorporated documents and the remainder of this Agreement, the rest of this Agreement takes priority in case of a conflict.
3. Budget, Invoices, and Payments
a) The CEC is only obligated to reimburse the Recipient for paid costs that are (1) incurred during the Agreement Term; (2) invoiced within the required timeframes of this Agreement; (3) not more than this Agreement’s budget; and (4) reasonable, actual, and allowable expenses under this Agreement.
b) Recipient acknowledges that the funds under this Agreement have a liquidation date of June 30, 2027, a legal timeframe after which the CEC has no authority to pay the funds. In addition, it takes the CEC administrative time to review, approve, work with the Recipient to correct any errors in, and request the State Controller’s Office to pay invoices. Accordingly, Recipient acknowledges that if it does not submit accurate invoices by March 30, 2027, for all amounts due under the Agreement, it risks not receiving payment, and relinquishes all rights to such payments should the CEC not pay it by the liquidation date. Recipient acknowledges that time is of the essence in invoicing by March 30, 2027, for all amounts due under this Agreement.
The Recipient may request payment from the Energy Commission at any time during the term of this Agreement after successful adoption of a qualifying solar permitting platform as verified by the CEC, but no more frequently than monthly. Recipient must use the CAM provided template invoice spreadsheet. c) If invoicing for in-house staff time, the template invoice spreadsheet must identify the employee’s name, hours worked, and billing rate to be included as a reimbursable expense. d) Unallowable costs include:
x Software not related to the adoption of a qualifying online, automated permitting platform.
Item No.9E
March 2023 Page 2 of 5 APP-22-164
City of Thousand Oaks
x Any costs incurred or activities conducted prior to entering into a grant agreement with the Energy Commission or incurred after the grant agreement has ended. x Typically excluded items such as food and beverages.
x Advertising costs.
x Fines and penalties.
x Permit processing fees charged by operator of an online platform. x All other costs not identified as allowable.
x Unreasonable amounts or rates.
4. Certification
By signing this Agreement, Recipient hereby certifies that all funds received pursuant to this Agreement shall be spent exclusively for its CalAPP project in compliance with this Agreement. The Recipient further certifies that it shall comply with all applicable laws in performing this Agreement.
5. Nondiscrimination Statement of Compliance
During the performance of this Agreement, the Recipient and its subcontractors will not unlawfully discriminate, harass, or allow harassment against any employee or applicant for employment because of sex, sexual orientation, race, color, ancestry, religious creed, national origin, physical disability (including HIV and AIDS), mental disability, medical condition, age, marital status, or denial of family care leave.
The Recipient and its subcontractors will ensure that the evaluation and treatment of their employees and applicants for employment are free from such discrimination and harassment.
The Recipient and its subcontractors shall comply with the provisions of the Fair Employment and Housing Act (Government Code Sections 12990 et seq.) and the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder (California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 11000 et seq.). The applicable regulations of the Fair Employment and Housing Commission implementing Government Code Section 12990 (a-f), set forth in Chapter 5 of Division 4.1 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and made a part of it as if set forth in full. The Recipient and its subcontractors will give written notice of their obligations under this section to labor organizations with which they have a collective bargaining or other Agreement.
The Recipient shall include the nondiscrimination and compliance provisions of this section in all subcontracts to perform work under this Agreement.
6. Drug-Free Workplace Certification
By signing this Agreement, the Recipient certifies under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that it will comply and will ensure its subcontractors will comply with the requirements of the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1990 (Government Code Section 8350 et seq.). In addition to any other rights and remedies available to the CEC, failure to comply with these requirements may result in suspension of payments under the Agreement or termination of the Agreement or both, and the Recipient may be ineligible for any future state awards if the CEC determines that any of the following Item No.9E
March 2023 Page 3 of 5 APP-22-164
City of Thousand Oaks
has occurred: (1) the Recipient has made false certification, or (2) violates the certification by failing to carry out the requirements of the Act.
[By signing this Agreement, the Recipient certifies under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that it will comply with the requirements of the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1990 (Government Code Section 8350 et seq.) and will provide a drug-free workplace by taking the following actions:
1) Publish a statement notifying employees that unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of a controlled substance is prohibited, and specifying actions to be taken against employees for violations as required by Government Code Section 8355(a). 2) Establish a Drug-Free Awareness Program as required by Government Code Section 8355(b) to inform employees about all of the following:
• The dangers of drug abuse in the workplace;

CDD:450-10\H:\COMMON\City Council\CC Agenda Items\2023\07112023\SolarApp Grant\Attachment 1.docx Item No.9E
TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Interceptor Capital Improvement Program Unit W (CI 5445) RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve Sixth Amendment to Professional Services Agreement Contract No. 12186-2019 with AECOM Technical Services, Inc. of Los Angeles, CA, for Condition Assessment and Preliminary Design Phase Services on the Unit W Capital Improvement Program Project in the amount of $31,000, for a revised notto-exceed amount of $297,749.
2. Authorize expenditure in the amount of $31,000 from A/C #624-8250-682-8300 (CI 5445, Wastewater Interceptor Capital Improvement Project Unit W).
3. California Environmental Quality Act: A Mitigated Negative Declaration was approved for this project by City Council on February 22, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. $1,700,000 is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 Wastewater Capital Fund Budget (CI 5445), with a total available project budget of $3,316,982. The estimated total project cost is $3,374,000. Additional budget will be requested at project award if necessary.
BACKGROUND:
The Hill Canyon Treatment Plant (HCTP) is located at 9600 Santa Rosa Road and provides tertiary-level wastewater treatment for the community. As part of the overall wastewater collection and treatment system, large-diameter wastewater interceptor pipelines were installed to transport the wastewater from the community and deliver it to the HCTP. The Unit W Wastewater Interceptor is a gravity collection pipeline that originates near the Oaks Mall and transports a large volume of wastewater along the Arroyo Conejo Creek to the HCTP (Attachment #1). The pipeline was installed in the 1960s and improvements have been made over the decades. In the lower portion of the interceptor, the original 1960s Unit Item No.9F
Interceptor CIP Unit W (CI 5445)
July 11, 2023
W pipeline consisted of a 30-inch diameter pressurized pipeline with two major wastewater access structures (Structure W-1 and Structure W/F). The structures enable the wastewater interceptors to be accessed by staff.
The necessary rehabilitation work for the Unit W Project includes installing a temporary wastewater bypass pipeline to HCTP headworks so closed-circuit television (CCTV) work can be performed on the inside of the wastewater pipelines and installing new access holes. This CCTV work will be completed on one pipeline at a time. In addition, three of the existing isolation valves are nonfunctional due to mechanical failure. Replacement of these valves can be challenging from a permitting and feasibility standpoint, so they are included as part of this project. The valves are buried in the canyon and therefore must be excavated to be replaced. The phase 1 condition assessment of the project is the first phase of a potential two-phase project. The work performed as part of this phase will determine the need for additional rehabilitation or repairs on this section of Unit W. Once this project is completed and the internal pipeline CCTV information work is obtained, staff will determine the need for a second phase of this project, which is a separate future capital project under CI 5681.
On August 27, 2019, AECOM Technical Services, Inc. (AECOM), a professional engineering firm, was selected through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process to prepare an asset assessment of a portion of the Unit W Pipeline Project. In May 2020, the agreement was modified with a first amendment which extended the contract date. A second amendment to the agreement was approved by City Council on January 26, 2021, to add $178,500 for design services. The third amendment to the agreement was approved in October 2021 to extend the agreement to June 30, 2022. A fourth amendment to the agreement was approved in June 2022 to add $13,249 for additional design services. A fifth amendment to the agreement was approved in May 2023 to extend the agreement to December 31, 2024.
On January 24, 2023, City Council authorized staff to advertise the project for construction bids. Bids were opened on March 1, 2023, however; because of the high construction bids, at the April 4, 2023 City Council meeting, staff recommended that all bids be rejected.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Before re-bidding the project, staff will work with AECOM, to explore design and construction alternatives that may result in cost savings for the project. Once the design and construction value engineering evaluation has been completed, project plans and specifications will be modified accordingly, and the project will be readvertised for bidding. In the meantime, staff is procuring the three long lead plug Item No.9F
Interceptor CIP Unit W (CI 5445)
July 11, 2023
valves that are necessary for the project, so that they are delivered in time for the construction of the project in 2024.
The Sixth Amendment to the agreement with AECOM, in the amount of $31,000 includes value engineering tasks to help potentially reduce the overall construction costs for the project (Attachment #2). This work will allow the project plans and specifications to be re-bid at a future City Council meeting later this year.
The revised tentative schedule for the project is as follows:
Value engineering Summer 2023
Re-bidding Fall 2023
Award of construction contract Winter 2024
Start construction Spring 2024
Construction completion End of 2024
As part of the design efforts on the project, the Consultant prepared the Mitigated Negative Declaration in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. City Council adopted the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project on February 22, 2022.
Community Outreach: This project will be limited to work at HCTP and in the canyon adjacent to Unit W pipelines and is not expected to impact any neighboring residences. The work will be at the south end of the HCTP and will have a limited impact on plant operations. Construction-related impacts to hiking trail users will be minimal.
This project meets City Council’s Top Ten Priorities #6: “Public Works + Infrastructure Investments across the community”.
CIP PROJECT PRIORITY (as outlined in FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 CIP Program Budget)
Priority Two – Necessary, but not essential, and there could be consequences if deferred.

FROM: Jennifer Patterson, Library Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Grant R. Brimhall Library Aquarium Maintenance RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve a three-year agreement with Aquatic Contractors (Thousand Oaks, CA) for supplies and maintenance of the 3,600-gallon saltwater aquarium at the Grant R. Brimhall Library effective July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2026, in a not-toexceed amount of $138,300.
2. Authorize expenditure in the amount of $46,100 for each fiscal year from A/C #110-7310-673-4200 (Library Fund/Building Repairs and Maintenance).
3. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time required to prepare the report is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 Library Fund Budget. Aquarium maintenance costs are included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 Library Fund Budget. Budget for the remaining contract term will be requested during the next biennial budget process.
BACKGROUND:
The 3,600-gallon salt-water aquarium was a gift to the community from the Friends of the Thousand Oaks Library and was installed as part of the Children’s Library expansion, which opened on June 24, 2006. The Grant R. Brimhall Library (Library) aquarium requires weekly professional maintenance due to its size and the specific requirements of saltwater aquariums. This includes water testing, pump and filter maintenance, water recycling, chemical balancing, gravel stirring, quarantine service, diagnostics, and general tank and reef cleaning to maintain the health of the fish. Aquarium maintenance vendors are contracted for three-year terms.
Item No.9G
Grant R. Brimhall Library Aquarium Maintenance
July 11, 2023
A Request for Proposals and Qualifications (RFP/Q) process in 2020 resulted in Aquatic Contractors being selected as the service provider for the maintenance of the Library aquarium. Their contract expires on June 30, 2023.
This staff report and agreement were originally submitted to City Council on June 20, 2023. The item was continued to the July 11, 2023, City Council meeting as a portion of the Aquatic Contractors Agreement was unintentionally omitted thus requiring re-submission.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
In accordance with Government Code section 4526 and the Thousand Oaks Municipal Code section 3-10.401, staff solicited a formal RFP/Q for the Library Aquarium Maintenance on May 1, 2023, which was publicly advertised in the Thousand Oaks Acorn newspaper and on the City’s procurement website. Unlike the low bid requirements of the Public Contract Code, contracts for professional, management, general, or special services should only be awarded to firms or persons who have demonstrated an adequate level of experience, competence, training, credentials, resources, staffing, and other professional qualifications necessary for more than a satisfactory performance of the services solicited.
Aquatic Contractors was the only company to submit a proposal. Aquatic Contractors is a highly regarded Thousand Oaks business that specializes in servicing commercial aquariums as well as private home aquariums. The company currently services The Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village, The Ojai Valley Inn & Spa, and Simi Valley Auto Spa, to name a few. In addition, Aquatic Contractors’ service for the Library has been exemplary and Library staff recommends selecting them as the aquarium service provider (Attachment #1).
The aquarium is a popular focal point in the Library and is regularly visited by Library patrons of all ages. Exposure to this salt-water world and its marine life creates interest in and awareness of the undersea environment. A digital display describing each fish and information about their habitat is mounted near the aquarium for the entertainment and education of Library patrons. Aquatic Contractors also includes educational presentations to children and families to complement Library programs as part of their services. Informational presentations on saltwater aquariums, tropical marine life, and water conservation further enhance the educational benefit of the aquarium to our community and fulfill the Library’s mission to inspire, inform, and engage.

Service Provider agrees that City, or its authorized representative, shall have the right to examine, audit, excerpt, copy or transcribe any of the records pertaining to this Agreement at any time during normal business hours. Service Provider shall reimburse City for all reasonable costs of the audit, including travel time and auditor costs, should such audit reveal an overcharge of five (5) percent or more. Any overcharge will be considered a breach of this Agreement and could be cause for termination. The obligations of this section shall be explicitly included in any subcontracts or other agreements entered into by Service Provider with respect to this Agreement, if allowed by this Agreement.
6. TERM, PROGRESS AND COMPLETION
This Agreement shall expire on June 30, 2026 unless Service Provider's authorized work assigned before the expiration of the term is not completed by that date.
If work has not been completed during the allotted Agreement period, the terms and conditions of the Agreement, including all rights and obligations, shall remain in effect and bind the parties until the work is completed.
Service Provider shall not commence work on the services to be performed until (i) Service Provider furnishes proof of insurance as required by paragraph 9 below, and (ii) City gives written authorization to proceed with the work provided by City’s Project Manager.
7. NO ASSIGNMENT
This Agreement is not assignable by Service Provider without City's prior consent in writing.
8. HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNITY
(a) Hold Harmless for Service Provider's Damages. Service Provider holds City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees and volunteers, harmless from all of Service Provider's claims, demands, lawsuits, judgments, damages, losses, injuries or liability to Service Provider, to Service Provider's employees, to Service Provider’s contractors or subcontractors, or to the owners of Service Provider's firm, which damages, losses, injuries or liability occur during the work or services required under this Agreement, or performance of any activity or work required under this Agreement.
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
(b) Defense and Indemnity of Third Party Claims/Liability. Service Provider shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees and volunteers from and against all liability including, but not limited to, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Service Provider’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in the Agreement, except such loss or damage which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of City.
Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Service Provider, or should City otherwise find Service Provider’s legal counsel unacceptable, then Service Provider shall reimburse City its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. Service Provider shall promptly pay City any final judgment rendered against City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of Service Provider’s negligent, reckless or wrongful performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
Service Provider’s obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of City under any provision of this Agreement, Service Provider shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Service Provider will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City.
(c) Nonwaiver. City does not waive, nor shall be deemed to have waived, any indemnity, defense or hold harmless rights under this section because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit with City, of any insurance certificates or policies described in Section 9.
9. MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE
Without limiting Service Provider’s indemnification of City, and prior to commencement of Work, Service Provider shall obtain, provide, and maintain at its own expense during the term of this Agreement, and any extension thereof, policies of insurance of the type and amounts described below in a form that is satisfactory to City.
Coverage shall be at least as broad as:
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
(a). Commercial General Liability (CGL): Service Provider shall, at Service Provider’s sole cost and expense and throughout the term of this Agreement, and any extensions thereof, carry General Liability insurance coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services form CG 00 01 in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, $2,000,000 general aggregate for bodily injury, personal and advertising injury and property damage, including with limitation, blanket contractual liability. (b). Automobile Liability: Service Provider shall, at Service Provider’s sole cost and expense and throughout the term of this Agreement, and any extensions thereof, carry Automobile Liability insurance coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services form CA 00 01 or the exact equivalent covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of Service Provider arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage of any owned, hired, non-owned, or rented vehicles, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for each accident. (c). Worker’s Compensation: Service Provider shall, at Service Provider’s sole cost and expense and throughout the term of this Agreement, and any extensions thereof, carry workers’ compensation statutory benefits as required by law with employer’s liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.
Service Provider shall submit to City, along with the certificate of insurance, a Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of City, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers for all work performed by Service Provider, its employees, agents and subcontractors.
If Service Provider maintains higher limits than the minimum shown above, City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for the higher limits maintained by Service Provider. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to City.
Other Insurance Provisions
The insurance policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the following provisions:
Additional Insured Status
City, its elected officials, officers, agents, 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 Service Provider 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 Service Provider’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 10 01 and CG 20 37 10 01 if a later edition is used). The provision shall also apply to any excess liability policies. In addition, Service Provider shall ensure that the automobile liability policy contains a provision covering City as an additional insured, and shall obtain an endorsement to that effect if it does not.
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
Excess Insurance
The limits of insurance required in this agreement may be satisfied by a combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Umbrella or excess policies shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for underlying coverages and covering those insured in the underlying policies. Coverage shall be “pay on behalf” with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no cross-liability exclusion of claims or suits by one insured against the other. 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 for the benefit of City as required in written contract or agreement before City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
City’s Rights of Enforcement
In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications or is cancelled and not replaced, City has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems necessary and any premium paid by City will be promptly reimbursed by Service Provider, or City will withhold amounts sufficient to pay premium from Service Provider’s payments. In the alternative, City may cancel this Agreement.
City’s Right to Revise Specifications
City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving Service Provider ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to Service Provider, City and Service Provider may renegotiate Service Provider's compensation.
Primary and Non-Contributory Coverage
For any claims related to this Agreement, Service Provider's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees or volunteers shall be excess of Service Provider's insurance and shall not contribute with it and be at least as broad as CG 20 01 04 13.
Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy required above shall provide that coverage shall not be canceled, except with notice to City.
Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions
Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City may require Service Provider to provide proof of ability to pay losses and related investigations, claim administration, and defense expenses within the retention.
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
Acceptability of Insurers
All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact business of insurance in the State of California, with a current A.M. Best’s rating of no less than A:VII, (unless otherwise acceptable to City).
Waiver of Subrogation
All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees or volunteers or shall specifically allow Service Provider, or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications, to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Service Provider hereby waives his own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors. Copies of these waivers shall be submitted to City prior to commencement of work.
Claims Made Policies
If any of the required policies provided coverage on a claims-made basis:
(a). The Retroactive Date must be shown and must be before the date of the Agreement or the beginning of contract work.
(b). Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least five (5) years after completion of the work required under this Agreement.
(c). If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claimsmade policy form with a Retroactive Date prior to the Agreement effective date, Service Provider must purchase “extended reporting” coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after completion of Agreement work.
Verification of Coverage
Service Provider shall provide City with copies of certificates (on City certificate form or an Accord form as modified per City direction) for all policies, with the appropriate named additional insured coverage and an endorsement that they are not subject to cancellation without 30 days prior written notice to City. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Service Provider's obligation to provide them. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
Subcontractors
Service Provider shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated herein, and Service Provider shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage, subcontractors shall provide coverage with a form at least as broad as CG 20 38 04 13.
10. RELATION OF THE PARTIES
(a) Consultant is and shall at all times remain as to the City a wholly independent contractor. The personnel performing the services under this Agreement on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Consultant's exclusive direction and control. Neither City nor any of its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers shall have control over the conduct of Consultant or any of Consultant's officers, employees, or agents except as set forth in this Agreement. Consultant shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its officers, employees or agents are in any manner officers, employees or agents of the City. Consultant shall not incur or have the power to incur any debt, obligation or liability whatever against City, or bind City in any manner.
(b) No employee benefits shall be available to Consultant in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Except for the fees paid to Consultant as provided in the Agreement, City shall not pay salaries, wages, or other compensation to Consultant for performing services hereunder for City. City shall not be liable for compensation or indemnification to Consultant for injury or sickness arising out of performing services hereunder.
11. TERMINATION BY CITY
City may terminate any portion or all of the services agreed to be performed under this Agreement by notifying Service Provider in writing (30) calendar days prior to any termination. In the event of such termination, Service Provider shall have the right and obligation to immediately assemble work in progress for the purpose of closing out the job. All compensation for actual work performed and charges outstanding at the time of termination shall be payable by City to Service Provider within 30 days following submission of a final statement by Service Provider.
12. CORRECTIONS
Service Provider shall correct, at its expense, all errors in the work which may be disclosed during City's review of Service Provider's work. Should Service Provider fail to make such correction in a reasonably timely manner, such correction shall be made by City, and the cost thereof shall be charged to Service Provider.
Item No.9G
LIB:231-20/H/COMMON/ADMINISTRATION/RFPQ/2023AQUARIUM
13. ACCEPTANCE OF FINAL PAYMENT CONSTITUTES RELEASE
The acceptance by Service Provider of the final payment made under this Agreement shall operate as and be a release of City from all claims and liabilities for compensation to Service Provider for anything done, furnished or relating to Service Provider's work or services. Acceptance of payment shall be any negotiation of City's check or the failure to make a written extra compensation claim within five (5) calendar days of the receipt of that check, whichever occurs first. However, any approval or payment by City shall not constitute, nor be deemed, a release of the responsibility and liability of Service Provider, its employees, subcontractors, agents and consultants for the accuracy and competency of the information provided and/or work performed; nor shall such approval or payment be deemed to be an assumption of such responsibility or liability by City for any defect or error in the work prepared by Service Provider, its employees, subcontractors, agents and consultants.
14. WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE
Failure by a party to insist upon the strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement by the other party, irrespective of the length of time for which such failure continues, shall not constitute a waiver of such party's right to demand strict compliance by such other party in the future. No waiver by a party of a default or breach of the other party shall be effective or binding upon such party unless made in writing by such party, and no such waiver shall be implied from any omissions by a party to take any action with respect to such default or breach. No express written waiver of a specified default or breach shall affect any other default or breach, or cover any other period of time, other than any default or breach and/or period of time specified.
15. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Service Provider is unaware of any City employee or official that has a financial interest in Service Provider's business. During the term of this Agreement and/or as a result of being awarded this Agreement, Service Provider shall not offer, encourage or accept any financial interest in Service Provider's business by any City employee or official. If a portion of Service Provider's services called for under this Agreement shall ultimately be paid for by reimbursement from and through an agreement with a developer of any land within City or with a City franchisee, Service Provider warrants that it has not performed any work for such developer/franchisee within the last 12 months, and shall not negotiate, offer or accept any contract or request to perform services for that identified developer/franchisee during the term of this Agreement.
16. NON-APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS
Payments due and payable to Service Provider for current services are within the current budget and within an available, unexhausted and unencumbered appropriation of City funds. In the event City has not appropriated sufficient funds for payment of Service Provider’s services beyond the current fiscal year, this Agreement shall cover only those costs incurred up to the conclusion of the current fiscal year.

TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Conejo Canyons Bridge at Hill Canyon Treatment Plant (CI 5527) RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve Sixth Amendment to Professional Services Agreement No. 11855- 2018 with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., Santa Barbara, CA, in the amount of $37,853 for additional design and engineering services related to Conejo Canyons Bridge at Hill Canyon Treatment Plant (CI 5527) for a new not-to-exceed total amount of $396,460 and extending the term of the Agreement to June 30, 2024.
2. Approve expenditure in the amount of $37,853 from A/C #001-4410-671-8300 (CI 5527, Conejo Canyons Bridge at HCTP).
3. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. $3,411,000 is included in the Adopted FY 2023-25 Capital Improvement Budget (CI 5527). The total estimated project cost of $3,248,220 is partially offset by a $30,000 donation from Conejo Open Space Foundation (COSF), and $654,000 contribution from Conejo Recreation and Park District (CRPD). Additionally, the Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA) is pursuing a grant funding opportunity of up to $200,000 that could further offset the City’s General Fund contribution.
BACKGROUND:
COSCA and the City are working in collaboration to construct a bridge across the Arroyo Conejo Creek southwest of Hill Canyon Road in the Conejo Canyons Open Space area (Attachment #1). The purpose of this bridge is to provide trail and vehicular access across the Arroyo Conejo Creek. Installation of a bridge will allow trail users, including pedestrians, bicyclists, and equestrians, to have a defined route between Santa Rosa Equestrian Park and Wildwood Canyon. The bridge will also provide emergency vehicular access out of Hill Canyon for wildfire purposes, Item No.9H
Conejo Canyons Bridge at HCTP (CI 5527)
July 11, 2023
as well as a new direct and safe crossing for Public Works vehicles between the City’s Municipal Service Center (MSC) and Hill Canyon Treatment Plant (HCTP).
On September 25, 2018, City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec) in the amount of $124,792 for the design and engineering of the project. There have been several amendments to the Stantec agreement as follows:
• First Amendment (May 2019) in the amount of $9,900 to provide for preparation of an Oak Tree Report;
• Second and Third Amendments (December 2019 and 2020) each to extend the term of the agreement for one year to allow time for completion of the environmental document and to obtain permits from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW);
• Fourth Amendment (February 2022) in the amount of $77,742 to provide for incorporating the latest updates in building codes and requirements of the project’s Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) into the project design and contract documents. The Amendment also extended the agreement term through December 31, 2023; and
• Fifth Amendment (July 2022) in the amount of $146,173 to provide for engineering support, specialty inspection, and testing services during the construction phase of the project.
On March 14, 2022, the project’s MND was approved by the Planning Commission.
Consultant and staff incorporated all required mitigation measures into the project’s plans and specifications.
On July 5, 2022, City Council awarded the construction contract to Beador Construction Company, Inc. in the amount of $2,155,300, plus a contingency of $215,500. The start of construction has been postponed until September 2023 to accommodate CDFW’s prohibition on construction during bird nesting season and supply chain/procurement issues.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Additional professional services by Stantec are required to prepare construction documents for habitat restoration and post-construction mitigation, per CDFW permit requirements. The Sixth Amendment to Professional Services Agreement with Stantec will provide for the design of planting and irrigation systems, preparation of contract documents, and engineering support during the bid for the construction of the habitat restoration following the completion of the bridge construction.

The estimated project completion timeline is as follows:
Start Site Construction September 2023
Complete Bridge Construction January 2024
Habitat Restoration Spring 2024
Construction Completion Summer 2024
This action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act because this action will not result in a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment [14 CCR 15060(c)].
Community Outreach: The project’s MND was published for public review in November 2021 and was presented to Planning Commission on March 14, 2022.
A dedicated project website has been created: www.toaks.co/ccbridge where updated project information will be provided throughout the construction phase.
Staff will also coordinate with CRPD and COSCA related to any potential trail impacts during the construction of the bridge and the access road.
This project meets City Council’s Top Ten Priorities #6 to “Public Works + Infrastructure Investments across the community”.
CIP PROJECT PRIORITY (as outlined in FY 2023-24 & FY 2024-25 CIP Program Budget): Priority Two – Necessary, but not essential, and there could be consequences if deferred

TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Bus and Car Wash Project (CI 5468)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Approve Professional Services Agreement with Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., (Los Angeles, CA) in a not-to-exceed amount of $406,949 for engineering and design of the Bus and Car Wash Project (CI 5468), plus extra services of $40,000, with a term ending June 30, 2024.
2. Authorize expenditure in the amount of $451,949 ($406,949 Agreement, plus extra services of $40,000, and $5,000 City Furnished Materials and Supplies) from A/C #651-5550-682-8300 (CI 5468, Bus and Car Wash).
3. Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. $1,640,500 is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 Capital Budget with an additional $127,500 in project carryover for a total budget of $1,768,000. The project is funded in part with $836,000 Federal 5307 funds and $342,500 earmarked Transportation Development Act (TDA). The total estimated cost of the project is $2,351,949. Any funding shortfall, at the time of construction contract award, will be provided by Federal 5307 and/or TDA funds.
No additional appropriation of City funds will be required.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s existing bus and car wash facility located at the Municipal Service Center (MSC) was constructed in 1993 and has reached the end of its useful life (Attachment #1). The current facility is now mechanically and technologically outdated, requires frequent repairs and maintenance, and is no longer as effective in thoroughly cleaning buses and other vehicles. Additionally, the existing Item No.9I
Bus and Car Wash Project (CI 5468)
July 11, 2023
configuration of the facility makes it difficult for larger vehicles to enter and exit the wash. When operating under ideal circumstances, the facility has the capacity of providing 800 to 1,000 washes per month, however; the existing wash is not being used at that level due to the issues referenced.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The City is proposing to construct a new fully enclosed replacement bus and car wash facility that will include the latest technology and equipment and will be constructed at approximately the same location as the current facility, but with an updated design to meet the needs of larger vehicles. In addition, full water capture and solar power are included as part of the design elements.
In accordance with Government Code section 4526 and Thousand Oaks Municipal Code section 3-10.401, on April 14, 2023, the City publicly advertised a formal Request for Proposals/Qualifications (RFP/Q) for engineering professional services in connection with the Bus and Car Wash Project (CI 5468). The RFP/Q was published in the Thousand Oaks Acorn newspaper and on the City’s eprocurement website.
Unlike the low bid requirements of the Public Contract Code, contracts for professional, management, general or special services should only be awarded to firms or persons who have demonstrated an adequate level of experience, competence, training, credentials, resources, staffing, and other professional qualifications necessary for more than a satisfactory performance of the services solicited. The award of an RFP/Q is based upon a variety of factors that demonstrate best value to the agency for the solicited scope of service. The cost of the service may be considered as one of those factors, however; the lowest cost is not the sole factor in deciding who will be awarded the contract.
On May 16, 2023, the City received two proposals as follows:
1. Huitt Zollars (Thousand Oaks, CA)
2. Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Los Angeles, CA)
A team of Public Works engineering and operations staff evaluated the proposals based on the following criteria:
1. Project understanding and approach;
2. Relevant experience (projects of similar size and scope);
3. Quality, clarity, responsiveness, and conformance with terms of the RFP/Q;
4. Qualifications and availability of key persons working on the project; and Item No.9I
Bus and Car Wash Project (CI 5468)
July 11, 2023
5. Reasonableness of schedule and estimated level of effort dedicated to complete each task.
After careful review and consideration of both firms’ qualifications and project team/approach, the proposal from Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec) was determined to best fit the City’s needs for this project. Detailed scope of work and consulting fees have been negotiated and finalized with Stantec. Staff recommends approval of the Professional Services Agreement with Stantec (Attachment #2).

PROJECT SCHEDULE

Bid process & Award Spring 2024
Construction Completion Summer 2025
Staff will return to City Council for authorization to bid on the construction of the project in Winter 2024.
The project is funded in part with set aside Federal 5307 funds ($836,000) and earmarked TDA funds of up to $1,000,000. Construction of the proposed wash facility will not negatively impact transit operations funding and transit’s financial support for street and road maintenance funding.
Community Outreach: This project is limited to work at the MSC facility and does not impact neighboring residences. The new bus and car wash will replace an existing bus wash facility and will have limited impact to MSC operation.
This action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act because this action will not result in a direct or foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment [14 CCR 15060(c)].
This project meets City Council’s Top Ten Priorities #6 to “Invest in Public Works + Infrastructure Investments across the community”.

8. HOLD HARMLESS AND INDEMNITY
(a) Hold Harmless for Consultant's Damages. Consultant holds City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees and volunteers, harmless from all of Consultant's claims, demands, lawsuits, judgments, damages, losses, injuries or liability to Consultant, to Consultant's employees, to Consultant’s contractors or subcontractors, or to the owners of Consultant's firm, which damages, losses, injuries or liability occur during the work or services required under this Agreement, or performance of any activity or work required under this Agreement.

DPW: 850-20\etm\H:\Council\2023\071123\CI 5468 Bus and Car Wash Project Att 2.docx
City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, agents, employees and volunteers from and against all liability including, but not limited to, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Consultant’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in the Agreement, except such loss or damage which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of City.
Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Consultant, or should City otherwise find Consultant’s legal counsel unacceptable, then Consultant shall reimburse City its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Consultant shall promptly pay City any final judgment rendered against City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of Consultant’s negligent, reckless or wrongful performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.
Consultant’s obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee.
However, without affecting the rights of City under any provision of this Agreement, Consultant shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of the Consultant will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City.
(c) Nonwaiver. City does not waive, nor shall be deemed to have waived, any indemnity, defense or hold harmless rights under this section because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit with City, of any insurance certificates or policies described in Section 9.
9. MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE

Waiver of Subrogation
All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees or volunteers or shall specifically allow Consultant or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications - to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Consultant hereby waives his own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subcontractors. Copies of these waivers shall be submitted to City prior to commencement of work.

If any of the required policies provided coverage on a claims-made basis:
(a). The Retroactive Date must be shown and must be before the date of the Agreement or the beginning of contract work.

Verification of Coverage
Consultant shall provide City with copies of certificates (on City certificate form or an Accord form as modified per City direction) for all policies, with the appropriate named additional insured coverage and an endorsement that they are not subject to cancellation without 30 days prior written notice to City. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Consultant's obligation to provide them.

14. TERMINATION
Termination for Convenience - The City, by written notice, may terminate this contract, in whole or in part, when it is in the Government's interest. If this contract is terminated, the Recipient shall be liable only for payment under the payment provisions of this contract for services rendered before the effective date of termination.

or written notice from City setting forth the nature of said breach or default, City shall have the right to terminate the Contract without any further obligation to Contractor. Any such termination for default shall not in any way operate to preclude City from also pursuing all available remedies against Contractor and its sureties for said breach or default.
Waiver of Remedies for any Breach - In the event that City elects to waive its remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this Contract, such waiver by City shall not limit City's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract.

Item No.9I
TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: La Granada Reservoir Improvements (CI 5292)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Authorize staff to reauthorize the La Granada Reservoir Improvements Project (CI 5292) for construction bids.
2. Find that the Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to 14 CCR 15302.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time and costs required to advertise for bids are included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 Water Fund Budget. $1,450,000 is available in the Adopted FY 2023-24 Water Capital Fund Budget with an estimated additional $1,385,225 in project carryover for a total available budget of $2,835,225. The estimated total project cost is $2,606,275.
BACKGROUND:
The City's water system serves over 17,000 customers and a population of approximately 50,000. The City receives treated imported water from the Calleguas Municipal Water District and distributes water to roughly 36 percent of the City via 16 water storage reservoirs constructed between 1961 and 2002, with a total storage capacity of over 35 million gallons. Thirteen of the reservoirs are above-ground steel reservoirs, and three are partially buried concrete reservoirs.
In 2018, a Citywide Reservoir Seismic Evaluation/Structural Report was completed, which included a priority list of seismic and structural rehabilitation needed at each reservoir to maintain high operational and safety standards.
Upgrades have been completed at the Lang Ranch and Tara Reservoirs. The La Granada Reservoir (Attachment #1) which was constructed in 1989, is the next reservoir on the rehabilitation priority list to be completed.
Item No.9J
La Granada Reservoir Improvements (CI 5292)
July 11, 2023
On November 10, 2020, the City awarded a design contract to Harper and Associates Engineering (HAE) for the design of the recommended improvements at the La Granada Reservoir. The improvements included the removal and replacement of the interior and exterior coating of the reservoir and other miscellaneous operational and safety improvements including roof vent, overflow piping, access ladder, and connection of the reservoir to the suction line of the newly constructed pump station at this reservoir site.
On July 6, 2021, City Council authorized staff to advertise the project for bids. However, the posting of construction bids was postponed due to COVIDrelated material supply chain issues. Supply chain issues had a major impact on paint material availability for the project and additionally, delayed the completion of the new La Granada Pump Station at the reservoir site, which was a prerequisite for the start of the reservoir improvements project.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
Supply chain issues for the painting material have improved since the project was originally authorized for bid, and the pump station project is complete, enabling the reservoir rehabilitation project to proceed. Project plans and specifications were updated to incorporate the latest engineering requirements and are now complete and available for review upon request to the Public Works Department at [email protected] or (805) 449-2400.
Once bids are received, staff will recommend the award of the construction contract at a future City Council meeting.
Project cost estimates are as follows:
1. Design $ 71,275
2. Construction (including contingency) $ 2,400,000
3. Construction Testing/Inspection $ 130,000
4. City Furnished Materials/Services $ 5,000
Total Estimated Project Cost $ 2,606,275
The tentative schedule for completion of the project is as follows:
Bid Opening September 2023
Award of Construction Contract November 2023
Start of Construction December 2023
Project Completion Fall 2024
This project is categorically exempt from CEQA per Section 15302 (replacement/reconstruction of an existing facility).
Item No.9J
La Granada Reservoir Improvements (CI 5292)
July 11, 2023
Community Outreach: Although the project is not anticipated to impact adjacent residents, City staff will contact residents surrounding the reservoir, notifying them of project repairs before and during construction. A project website featuring schedule updates throughout the construction phase will be maintained.
This project meets City Council’s Top Ten Priorities #6 to “Public Works + Infrastructure Investments across the community”.
CIP PROJECT PRIORITY (As outlined in FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25 CIP Program Budget): Priority Two – Necessary but not essential, and there could be consequences if deferred.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goals:
C. Operate City government in a fiscally and managerially responsible and prudent manner to ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks remains one of California's most desirable places to live, work, visit, recreate, and raise a family.
F. Provide and enhance essential infrastructure to ensure that the goals and policies of the Thousand Oaks General Plan are carried out and the City retains its role and reputation as a leader in protecting the environment and preserving limited natural resources.

TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Tracy M. Noonan, City Attorney
DATE: July 11, 2023
SUBJECT: Transition to District Elections Hearing #4 - District Boundary Maps and Sequencing of Elections
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Receive report from National Demographics Corporation (NDC) on focus and draft maps proposed to date, process for obtaining public input on draft maps and potential sequencing for district-based elections pursuant to Elections Code Section 10010.
2. Conduct public hearing to receive public input on district boundaries and sequencing of elections.
3. Designate a preferred map and sequence of elections for inclusion in the ordinance.
4. Read ordinance in title only, waive further reading, and if no objection, introduce ordinance to designate the district map and sequence of elections to transition from an at-large election system to a district-based election system.
5. Find that this action is not a project as defined in the California Environmental Quality Act.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time to write report is included in the Adopted FY 2023-24 General Fund Budget.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Thousand Oaks currently uses an "at-large" election system, in which all voters in the City have the opportunity to vote for candidates for all five seats on City Council. City Council candidates may reside anywhere in the City, and they each provide citywide representation. A district-based election system is one in which the City is physically divided into voting districts, each with one council Item No.10A
Transition to District Elections Maps & Sequencing
July 11, 2023
member who resides in the district and is chosen by the electors residing in that particular district.
On March 15, 2023, the City received a letter alleging the City's at-large method of electing members of City Council violates the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA/the Act). The letter demanded the City transition to district-based elections or face litigation under the CVRA.
At the April 4, 2023, City Council meeting, staff presented a variety of options and issues associated with the CVRA challenge to the City's current at-large method of electing members of City Council. After considering all the information and options presented, City Council voted to initiate the transition to district-based elections, authorizing staff to bring back a resolution declaring City Council's intent to transition to districts pursuant to Elections Code Section 10010(e)(3)(A).
On April 25, 2023, City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-011, initiating the process to transition from an at-large election system to a district-based election system. A key reason that the City is proceeding with district-based elections is the threat of significant litigation under the CVRA. Faced with potentially millions of dollars in legal fees and damages (as some cities have experienced), the City decided to voluntarily proceed with transitioning to district-based elections. This allows the City to retain its own ability to determine and adopt an appropriate district map instead of having the risk of a court doing so.
On May 9, 2023, and May 16, 2023, City Council conducted the first and second public hearings. During the public hearings, City Council received a presentation by NDC on the mapping process and allowed for public comments to be heard on the transition from at-large to district-based elections for members of City Council.
Additionally, the City held two public workshops; one virtual on May 11, 2023, and one in-person on June 3, 2023.
On June 20, 2023, City Council conducted the third public hearing. During the public hearing, City Council received a presentation by NDC and received input from the public on the draft maps and potential election sequencing. Following public input and City Council’s discussion, City Council narrowed the list of draft maps under consideration from ten to three focus maps (Maps 104, 106B, and 111B). Additionally, the City held two public workshops; one virtual on June 22, 2023, and one in-person on June 24, 2023. The City also hosted a booth on the districting process at the Pop-Up Arts & Music Festival on June 23, 2023.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
At the June 20, 2023, City Council meeting, City Council kept Map 104 as originally submitted as one of the focus maps. City Council directed the City's demographer to prepare revised draft district maps from Maps 106 and 111, henceforth referred to as Maps 106B and 111B, as the other two focus maps for City Council consideration.
Item No.10A
Transition to District Elections Maps & Sequencing
July 11, 2023
Members of the public have also had the opportunity to submit their own draft district maps and sequence of elections for City Council consideration.
The purpose of this public hearing is to:
1. Receive a report from NDC regarding the focus maps and the newlysubmitted, draft district maps;
2. Receive public input on this process; and
3. Select a preferred map and sequence of elections.
The focus and newly-submitted, draft maps and accompanying population and demographic data (Attachment #1) are also available on the project website at maptoaks.org, which is linked on the City’s website.
In creating the district boundaries, the City must ensure compliance with the following State- and federally-mandated criteria:
Federal Criteria for Cities:
1. Each council district shall contain a nearly equal population as required by law; and
2. Each council district shall be drawn in a manner that complies with the Federal Voting Rights Act. No council district shall be drawn with race as the predominant factor in violation of the principles established by the United States Supreme Court in Shaw v. Reno, 509 U.S. 630 (1993), and its progeny.
California Criteria for Cities:
1. Geographically contiguous;
2. Undivided neighborhoods and "communities of interest" (socio-economic geographic areas that should be kept together);
3. Easily identifiable boundaries; and
4. Compact (do not bypass one group of people to get to a more distant group of people).
Other Traditional Districting Principles:
1. Respect voters' choices / continuity in office; and
2. Future population growth.
The deadline for members of the public to submit their draft district maps prior to this meeting was June 27, 2023. Maps were posted to maptoaks.org by July 4, 2023.
At the conclusion of this public hearing, City Council may select a district map and sequence of elections and introduce the ordinance to change to district-based elections (Attachment #2). This public hearing completes the two required public hearings on the draft maps.
Item No.10A
Transition to District Elections Maps & Sequencing
July 11, 2023
Next Steps
The next step in the transition process is the second reading and adoption of the ordinance, which is scheduled for July 18, 2023. However, if City Council makes further changes to the district map, including sequencing, prior to the ordinance introduction, there will need to be an additional public hearing to satisfy the sevenday posting requirement. The City’s 90-day litigation protection deadline is July 24, 2023; therefore, it is imperative to stay on schedule to avoid legal challenge and financial risk.
Community Outreach: To engage the community, City staff launched a full marketing campaign. Staff created a dedicated website on the districting process, which is currently featured on the City website’s home page and at maptoaks.org.
Staff has conducted community outreach via email, print signage, social media, water bill inserts, City newsletters, and announcements at City Council meetings.
Public hearing notices are published in the Ventura County Star. The City also established a specific email address for members of the public wishing to submit feedback via email, which is: [email protected]. Additional outreach efforts will continue throughout the districting process. Staff invites the public to spread the message to friends and neighbors to help inform them of the process.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goals:
A. Create a more equitable, accessible, safe, welcoming, and inclusive government and community regardless of race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex, physical or mental ability, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, language, education, and/or socio-economic status.
B. Provide municipal government leadership which is open and responsive to residents, and is characterized by ethical behavior, stability, promoting public trust, transparency, confidence in the future, and cooperative interaction among civic leaders, residents, business representatives, and staff, while recognizing and respecting legitimate differences of opinion on critical issues facing the City.
C. Operate City government in a fiscally and managerially responsible and prudent manner to ensure that the City of Thousand Oaks remains one of California’s most desirable places to live, work, visit, recreate, and raise a family.
