a total of fifty-five (55) projects.

Thirty-five (35) of those projects are identified in the published Vallejo FY 2020-21 CIP Budget book. While at the time the Bond proposal anticipated an issuance of $27M, due to record-setting low interest rates at the time of the bond sale (January 2021), the annual projected debt service funded an issuance of $52M, an addition of $25M dollars earmarked for investment in the drinking water system infrastructure for the long term benefit of system reliability for customers. Specialized design and consultant work is a prerequisite to developing the scope and framework for the resulting construction projects. The Bond Issuance requires a minimum of 80% of bond funds be spent within three (3) years. Current staffing levels in Water Engineering are not sufficient to support this requirement while managing the existing workload.

In order to meet the current and anticipated needs for the Water Department’s Capital Improvement Projects which will be funded through the Bond Issuance, as well as emerging critical maintenance needs, City staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) asking that qualified consultants submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) demonstrating their ability to perform the following services as related specifically to the Water industry in the following major categories:
 Program/Project Management
 Pipeline Design
 Pump Station and Tank Studies, Assessments, and Design  Water Treatment Plant Studies, Assessments, and Design  Earthen Dams and Associated Geotechnical and Structural Engineering  Hydrology Evaluations
 Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling
 Electrical Engineering
 Water Resources Management
 Environmental Permitting, CEQA and Restoration
 Construction Management
 Telecommunication Services
The RFQ for On-Call Water Engineering Consulting was released on July 12, 2021. Twentythree proposals were submitted by the due date of August 9, 2021. Staff reviewed the SOQs and ranked each firm by scoring them based on the following criteria as listed in the RFQ:
 Firm’s relevant experience and familiarity with issues applicable to the City’s needs. (50%)  Qualifications of the firm and assigned individuals. (25%)  Fee structure and cost-effectiveness of the consultants. (15%) Date: March 22, 2022

 Reference checks. (10%)
Due to the extensive responsibilities of the Water Department Engineering team and bond obligations, the firms represented by each of the contracts included with this staff report were selected to best meet those needs. These firms possess various requested areas of expertise as set forth in each contract, have recent experience handling on-call services for municipalities, are available to commence services immediately, and have resources and staffing to complete assignments on a timely basis.

Each of the firms have been notified that they are being recommended for agreements in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term of the contract. The specific scope of services, schedule, and cost of work will be defined on a statement of work basis. The statement of work will be signed by the Water Director and the consulting firm prior to beginning work.

HDR Engineering Inc., proposed in the areas of Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling and Construction Management; Pipelines; Pump Stations and Tanks; Water Treatment Plants; Earthen Dams, Associated Geotechnical & Structural Engineering; and Electrical Engineering and will be awarded both a Design Professional Agreement and a Consultant and Professional Agreement. A Design Professional Agreement is an agreement for consultants to provide the design and specifications required for a capital project. A Consultant and Professional Agreement covers a similar range of consulting services, such as guidance, plan review, feasibility studies, and planning studies. However, it does not include design criteria.

Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements with HDR Engineering, Inc. This action will authorize the City Manager to execute agreements that will establish a pool of professional consultants under contract with the City through June 30, 2026, with an option to extend agreements for one year.

FISCAL IMPACT
This proposed action will not have any direct impact on the General Fund. Funds to pay each firm for asneeded consultant services in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term contract will come from existing (and future) capital improvement project budgets within the Water Enterprise Fund based on allocated bond funding. The contracts also include a potential one-year extension in a not-toexceed amount of $500,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This proposed action will not have any direct impact on the General Fund. Funds to pay each firm for asneeded consultant services in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term contract will come from existing (and future) capital improvement project budgets within the Water Enterprise Fund based on allocated bond funding. The contracts also include a potential one-year extension in a not-toexceed amount of $500,000.

4. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Design Professional shall hold harmless, defend (with independent counsel approved by City) and indemnify City and its officers, employees and volunteers from and against all claims, damages, losses, penalties, fines and judgments and expenses and defense costs, including but not limited to attorney fees, court costs, associated investigation and administrative expenses, regardless of the nature or type arising out of, or pertaining to, or relating to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Design Professional, or the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of an employee, agent or subcontractor of the Design Professional, except where caused by the active negligence, sole negligence, or willful misconduct of City. In no event shall the cost to defend charged to the design professional exceed the design professional’s proportionate percentage of fault.

However, notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event one or more defendants is unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of the business, the design professional shall meet and confer with other parties regarding unpaid defense costs. The provisions of this section pertaining to the duty and cost to defend shall not apply to either of the following:
1) Any contract for design professional services, or amendments thereto, where a project-specific general liability policy insures all project participants for general Design Professional Services Agreement (Revised 01.2019) Page 2 of 11 liability exposures on a primary basis and also covers all design professionals for their legal liability arising out of their professional services on a primary basis, 2) A design professional who is a party to a written design-build joint venture agreement.

The provisions of this Section are not limited by the insurance provisions of this Agreement.

The provisions of this section shall survive the completion of the services, expiration or termination of this Agreement.

5. Insurance Requirements. Design Professional agrees to comply with all of the Insurance Requirements set forth in Exhibit C, entitled “Insurance Requirements for Design Professional.” Failure to maintain required insurance at all times shall constitute a default and material breach.

6. Accident Reports.

The report shall be made in writing and shall include, at a minimum: (a) the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of the persons involved, (b) the names, addresses and telephone numbers of any known witnesses, (c) the date, time and description of the accident or other occurrence.

7. Conflict of Interest.

Design Professional shall comply with the City of Vallejo Conflict of Interest Code and not enter into any contract or agreement during the performance of this Agreement which will create a conflict of interest with its duties to City under this Agreement. In the event of a change in Design Professional’s family, business, real property, or financial interests occurs during the term of this Agreement that creates an actual or potential conflict of interest, then Design Professional shall disclose such conflict in writing to City.

Every individual who performs services on behalf of Design Professional pursuant to this Agreement must file a full Statement of Economic Interests (also known as Form 700) with the City Clerk if the work of the individual involves making a governmental decision whether to issue, deny, suspend, or revoke any permit, license, application, certificate, approval, order, or similar authorization or entitlement; authorizes the City to enter into, modify, or renew a contract; grants City approval of specifications for a contract; adopts or approves for the City any policy, standard or guideline; lobbies on behalf of the City, or performs the same or substantially all the same duties for the City that would otherwise be performed by an individual holding a position specified in the City’s Conflict of Interest Code.

CONSENT CALENDAR 8.W.

DATE: March 22, 2022
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Beth Schoenberger, Acting Water Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING AN ON-CALL CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL

SERVICES AGREEMENT AND A DESIGN PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HYDROSCIENCE ENGINEERS, INC. FOR WATER ENGINEERING SERVICES AND

DESIGN SERVICES AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME IN A TOTAL AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $2 MILLION AND LIMITED TO $500,000 PER YEAR FOR FOUR YEARS AS PART OF THE CITY’S PROGRAM FOR UPGRADING AND

REPLACING OUTDATED CITY WATER INFRASTRUCTURE

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution approving an on-call consultant and professional services agreement and a design professional services agreement with hydroscience engineers, inc. For water engineering services and design services and authorizing the city manager to execute same in a total amount not-to-exceed $2 million and limited to $500,000 per year for four years as part of the city’s program for upgrading and replacing outdated city water infrastructure.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The ability to deploy consultants on an on-call, as-needed basis allows the Water Department to best manage the anticipated workload to deliver capital projects within the allotted time frame to address aging infrastructure and assure drinking water system reliability for customers.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Water Department anticipates using contract services of consultant firms to perform work on various water Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and water Engineering-related projects. This work will be variable in scope and may be short-term and/or long-term, depending upon the focus. As a practice, many cities enter into on-call agreements with consultant firms to assign work as needed. In addition, many cities choose to enter into on-call agreements with multiple firms in order to ensure that a consultant's workload issues will not get in the way of a city's critical-path needs, allow staff to best fit the expertise of a particular firm with specific needs of an assignment, and obtain competitive pricing.

Water’s Engineering staff are responsible for reviewing planning and development applications, assisting other divisions within the Water Department with maintenance requests, water conservation and resources planning management, inter-agency coordination, implementing grant programs and strategic planning, responding to customer service requests, and delivering the design and construction of Water’s CIP. When Vallejo's drinking water functions were transitioned into a standalone department, the need to tackle the aging infrastructure was identified as a top priority. A long-term financial plan was prepared, a new rate plan was unanimously approved by Council after an 18-month process of robust community engagement, with direction from the City Council Ad Hoc Water Rate Committee. The financial plan included a projected $27M bond issuance. The Bond Issuance was proposed due to the extensive maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement needs of the City’s aging drinking water infrastructure. In December 2020, after delays resulting from the pandemic, the City Council approved the Bond Issuance, wherein Water staff had identified Date: March 22, 2022

Page 2 ends

a total of fifty-five (55) projects.

Thirty-five (35) of those projects are identified in the published Vallejo FY 2020-21 CIP Budget book. While at the time the Bond proposal anticipated an issuance of $27M, due to record-setting low interest rates at the time of the bond sale (January 2021), the annual projected debt service funded an issuance of $52M, an addition of $25M dollars earmarked for investment in the drinking water system infrastructure for the long term benefit of system reliability for customers. Specialized design and consultant work is a prerequisite to developing the scope and framework for the resulting construction projects. The Bond Issuance requires a minimum of 80% of bond funds be spent within three (3) years. Current staffing levels in Water Engineering are not sufficient to support this requirement while managing the existing workload.

In order to meet the current and anticipated needs for the Water Department’s Capital Improvement Projects which will be funded through the Bond Issuance, as well as emerging critical maintenance needs, City staff issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) asking that qualified consultants submit a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) demonstrating their ability to perform the following services as related specifically to the Water industry in the following major categories:
 Program/Project Management
 Pipeline Design
 Pump Station and Tank Studies, Assessments, and Design  Water Treatment Plant Studies, Assessments, and Design  Earthen Dams and Associated Geotechnical and Structural Engineering  Hydrology Evaluations
 Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling
 Electrical Engineering
 Water Resources Management
 Environmental Permitting, CEQA and Restoration
 Construction Management
 Telecommunication Services
The RFQ for On-Call Water Engineering Consulting was released on July 12, 2021. Twentythree proposals were submitted by the due date of August 9, 2021. Staff reviewed the SOQs and ranked each firm by scoring them based on the following criteria as listed in the RFQ:
 Firm’s relevant experience and familiarity with issues applicable to the City’s needs. (50%)  Qualifications of the firm and assigned individuals. (25%)  Fee structure and cost-effectiveness of the consultants. (15%)  Reference checks. (10%)

Page 3 ends

Due to the extensive responsibilities of the Water Department Engineering team and bond obligations, the firms represented by each of the contracts included with this staff report were selected to best meet those needs. These firms possess various requested areas of expertise as set forth in each contract, have recent experience handling on-call services for municipalities, are available to commence services immediately, and have resources and staffing to complete assignments on a timely basis.

Each of the firms have been notified that they are being recommended for agreements in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term of the contract. The specific scope of services, schedule, and cost of work will be defined on a statement of work basis. The statement of work will be signed by the Water Director and the consulting firm prior to beginning work.

HydroScience Engineers Inc., proposed in the areas of Pipelines; Pump Stations and Tanks; and Electrical Engineering; Water Distribution System Hydraulic Modeling and Water Resources Management and will be awarded both a Design Professional Agreement and a Consultant and Professional Agreement. A Design Professional Agreement is an agreement for consultants to provide the design and specifications required for a capital project. A Consultant and Professional Agreement covers a similar range of consulting services, such as guidance, plan review, feasibility studies, and planning studies. However, it does not include design criteria.

Staff recommends authorizing the City Manager to execute agreements with HydroScience Engineers, Inc.

This action will authorize the City Manager to execute agreements that will establish a pool of professional consultants under contract with the City through June 30, 2026, with an option to extend agreements for one year.

FISCAL IMPACT
This proposed action will not have any direct impact on the General Fund. Funds to pay each firm for asneeded consultant services in an amount not to exceed $500,000 annually over the initial four-year term contract will come from existing (and future) capital improvement project budgets within the Water Enterprise Fund based on allocated bond funding. The contracts also include a potential one-year extension in a not-toexceed amount of $500,000.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.
