STAFF REPORT – PLANNING

CITY OF VALLEJO

PLANNING COMMISSION

DATE: April 21, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Melissa Tigbao, PE, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION FINDING THE PROJECT TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE

PROVISIONS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) GUIDELINE SECTION 15378 AND FINDING THE PROPOSED PROJECTS FOR THE

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CITY OF VALLEJO GENERAL PLAN 2040

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution finding the project to be exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guideline Section 15378 and finding the proposed projects for the Capital Improvement plan conformance with the City of Vallejo General Plan 2040.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is an important planning tool that identifies infrastructure and other public facility projects, cost, funding mechanisms, and priorities for execution. The CIP is adopted for a five-year period and updated annually to show unspent funds for projects not yet completed and to add a new year to the cycle. It also reflects any changes in the priorities for projects that have not yet started. Each year, pursuant to California Government Code Section 65401, the Planning Commission must review the “ensuing fiscal year” of the CIP for conformance with the City’s General Plan and convey its findings to the City Council.

The Commission’s review is limited to General Plan conformance and does not include recommendations on the projects (except as related to General Plan conformance), priorities or budget projections of the CIP.

Following this hearing, the City Council will conduct its own hearing and make a determination as to final adoption of the revised FY 2024-25 CIP.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Capital improvements are those individual construction projects and purchases of land, equipment, and contract services that cost more than $50,000. Capital improvement planning is one of the main ways communities implement the General Plan. CIP funding priorities reflect community values, needs, desired services and projects and resources to accomplish them.

The objectives of the CIP are as follows:
• To provide increased planning and coordination of CIP projects • To relate the planning of CIP projects more effectively to general City goals and fiscal capability • To assist City staff in projecting impacts on future workload requirements, department programs and the City’s operating budget
• To ensure conformance of the capital projects with the City’s General Plan • To allocate resources to the City’s highest priority projects • To identify funding shortfalls and develop funding strategies

The CIP forecasts the City’s proposed major projects over the next five years. The capital needs for the City exceed the amount of available (and anticipated) revenue, therefore, the CIP includes both funded and unfunded projects to capture the full needs of the City and enable the City Council to prioritize the projects.

Proposed CIP Book FY 2025-26 through 2029-30

Date: April 21, 2025
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION FINDING THE PROJECT TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE

PROVISIONS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) GUIDELINE SECTION 15378 AND FINDING THE PROPOSED PROJECTS FOR THE

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CITY OF VALLEJO GENERAL PLAN 2040

Pursuant to California Government Code Section 66002(a), the CIP includes the location, size, time of availability, and estimated costs for all improvements.

On August 29, 2017, the City Council adopted General Plan 2040, a comprehensive statement of the City’s land use policies for the next 25 years. The Planning Commission’s task relative to the CIP is to review the first year of the CIP and determine whether it conforms with the General Plan. Staff has provided the following documents to aid the Commission in this task:

• A resolution finding that the proposed FY 2025-26 CIP conforms with the General Plan (Attachment 1); • A General Plan “conformance matrix: which identifies applicable General Plan policies for each new project in the FY 2025-26 CIP (Attachment 2)
• The full text of the General Plan policies related to the new project (Attachment 3)

CONFORMANCE WITH THE GENERAL PLAN
Staff has conducted an audit of General Plan policies and has prepared the attached matrix (Attachment 2) to document how each proposed new capital improvement project conforms with the City’s General Plan. In general, each CIP item implements a program or policy in the General Plan, which are identified by policy number and description for reference in the attached matrix.

The General Plan has a time frame spanning the next 22 years, however, the City Council prioritizes and allocates limited resources every year. Not all General Plan goals or plans may be funded during each year of the CIP. The City Council ultimately decides spending priorities and determines if they are in harmony with the General Plan. Consequently, the proposed CIP does not spread City capital funding equally among all plan areas but must prioritize funding based on the City Council’s assessment of community needs and priorities.

While a five-year future cost is forecast, the Council adopts fund allocations for a single-year CIP, so future years are not shown on the attached matrix.

There can sometimes be a concern that the amount budgeted for capital projects may not be adequate to support projected community growth. Conversely, another concern is that capital improvements might facilitate growth that exceeds planned levels, leading to development that is disorderly or adversely impacts the environment. Staff has reviewed the proposed CIP and finds no evidence that it will preclude the City from accommodating the growth envisioned in the General Plan or cause any growth-management thresholds to be exceeded.

There are a few additional CIP projects not up for FY2025-26 Budget Appropriations but still need General Plan conformance since they will be going in front of City Council for FY2024-25 Budget Amendments as new CIP projects and therefore are being included in this Planning Commission item.

FISCAL IMPACT
The projects identified in the CIP are funded through a variety of mechanisms including grants, fees, gas tax, etc. Each project in the CIP document identifies the funding source(s) for that project to be allocated over the course of the five-year planning period. The City Council will authorize specific funding sources and amounts as part of the budget process, or at the time of individual project approval.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION FINDING THE PROJECT TO BE EXEMPT FROM THE

PROVISIONS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) GUIDELINE SECTION 15378 AND FINDING THE PROPOSED PROJECTS FOR THE

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CITY OF VALLEJO GENERAL PLAN 2040

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, therefore no further review is required. CEQA review is conducted for individual projects at the time of project approval.

WHEREAS, a proposed CIP has been developed for the 2025-30 time period for City Council review and adoption; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 65401 requires the City’s Planning Commission to determine whether the “ensuing fiscal year” of the CIP (Fiscal Year, or FY, 2025-26 in this case) is in conformance with the City’s General Plan, and to report its determination to the City Council; and WHEREAS, in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the Planning Commission’s action to determine whether a proposed new or modified CIP project is in conformance with the General Plan is not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 in that General Plan conformance findings required by State law are not a project as defined under CEQA; and
WHEREAS, there are a few additional CIP projects not up for FY2=2025-26 Budget Appropriations but still need General Plan conformance since they will be going in front of City Council for FY2024- 25 Budget Amendments as new CIP projects and therefore are being included in this Planning Commission item; and
WHEREAS, on April 21, 2025, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on the proposed CIP for FY 2025-26 during which interested persons had an opportunity to testify; and WHEREAS, at the April 21, 2025, Planning Commission meeting, upon hearing and considering all testimony and arguments, if any, of all persons desiring to be heard, the Commission considered all evidence relating to the consistency of the FY 2025-26 CIP with the General Plan.

NOW THEREFORE, the Planning Commission of the City of Vallejo hereby finds, determines, and resolves as follows:

Section 1: The Planning Commission has duly considered the full record before it on this matter, which includes but is not limited to such things as the City staff report, the FY 2025-26 CIP, testimony by staff and the public (if any), and any other materials or evidence submitted or provided to the Commission. Furthermore, the recitals set forth above are found to be true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference.

Section 2: This action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, since it is not a “project” as defined under CEQA.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION: 1) FINDING THE CAPE SEAL 2025 PROJECT (MP2025) (RESURFACING RESIDENTIAL STREETS WITH CAPE SEAL) CATEGORICALLY

EXEMPT FROM THE PROVISIONS OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA) PURSUANT TO CEQA GUIDELINES SECTION 15301(C); 2) APPROVING THE PROJECT PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE PROJECT; AND 3) AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT TO GHILOTTI BROS., INC., OF SAN RAFAEL, CALIFORNIA IN THE AMOUNT OF $3,689,824.98 AND REJECTING ALL

OTHER BIDS, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution: 1) Finding the Cape Seal 2025 Project (MP2025) (resurfacing residential streets with Cape Seal) categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c); 2) Approving the plans and specifications for the Project; and 3) Awarding a construction contract to Ghilotti Bros., Inc., of San Rafael of California in the amount of $3, 689,824.98, rejecting all other bids, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the contract.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The project is part of the City's efforts to enhance and improve Vallejo's roadway conditions and was funded with Measure P funds.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Voters approved the Vallejo Safe Streets and Essential Services Measure (Measure P) in the November 2022 Municipal Elections. Measure P is estimated to generate $18 million annually to help maintain critical City services and address community priorities as identified in previous community surveys. On December 20, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 22-222, which directed staff to prioritize work in nine categories, including repairing deteriorating neighborhood streets and sidewalks.

On February 20, 2024, the City Council allocated $5 million of Measure P funding to jump-start the City's investment in pavement improvements. Of the $5 million allocated, $1 million was for the planning and engineering of capital improvement program (CIP) projects that would be bid each winter to be constructed each summer / fall on an annual basis. Public Works enlisted the support of the highly qualified on-call consultant engineering firm, Nichols Consulting Engineers (NCE), to support staff in developing a 10-year plan for annual investments in the roadway network, and also to engineer the CIP projects each year. In the summer / fall of 2024, Public Works implemented a $2 million slurry seal project as the first annual effort investing in the City's roadways. Public Works also initiated planning and engineering efforts, developing the CIP pipeline for an annual program of delivering major paving projects each summer / fall for the following 10 years.

For the 2025 summer / fall paving season, Public Works returned to the Measure P Oversight Committee and City Council to request $10M to fund both a Cape Seal Project to resurface and extend the life of residential streets and a Grind and Overlay Paving Project for arterials and major collectors. The street segments

included in the project were recommended by the City's StreetSaver Database and were presented to the Measure P Oversight Committee and to City Council at the time the budget allocation request was made.

Council allocated $10 million to the City's CIP budget for the summer 2025 paving projects.

Plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&E) were prepared and completed by NCE under the direction of the Interim Public Works Director. The project was advertised for bid beginning May 20, 2025 on Planet Bids and in the Vallejo Times Herald, in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 20164. A four-week advertising period was completed. The Plans and Specifications are available for review through the hyperlinks provided in Attachment 2 - Construction Contract MP2025 - under Exhibit G.

On March 26, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 24-040 N.C., approving a Project Labor Agreement (PLA) with the Napa-Solano Building and Construction Trades Council and its affiliated local unions. The PLA applies to future City capital projects exceeding a threshold of $750,000. As the engineer’s estimate for this project exceeded that threshold, the contract included provisions to comply with this requirement.

On June 17, 2025, sealed bids were opened and publicly read by the Deputy City Clerk. The City received two (2) bids and the results of the bids for the subject project, in order from lowest to highest, are as follows:

Bid Order Contractor Total Base Bid Amount

1. Ghilotti Bros., Inc. $3,689,824.98

2. Team Ghilotti, Inc. $4,141,700.00

Staff determined that Ghilotti Bros., Inc., of San Rafael, California, is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and recommends awarding a construction contract in the amount of $3,689,824.98. All submitted bid requirements appear to be complete and in order, meeting all bid requirements.

SECTION 4: SCOPE OF WORK
4-1.01 INTENT OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
All work and materials shall be in full accordance with the latest adopted standards and regulations of the State Fire Marshal; the California Building Code; Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations; the California Electrical Code; the California Plumbing Code; Americans with Disabilities Act; and all other applicable codes, laws, rules or regulations. Nothing in these Contract Documents is to be construed to permit work not conforming to these requirements. Contractor agrees that immediately upon signing of the Contract, Contractor will diligently review the Contract Documents and determine if any work described or inferred within the Contract Documents is not in conformance with these requirements. Should Contractor discover work within the Contract Documents not in conformance with these requirements, Contractor agrees to immediately notify Engineer in writing of said nonconformance, and to not proceed with nonconforming work. When the work detailed in the Contract Documents differs from governing codes, it is understood and agreed that the Contract sum is based upon the more costly or expensive standard.

The intent of the drawings and Specifications is to prescribe the details for the construction and completion of the work which the Contractor undertakes to perform in accordance with the terms of the Contract, and that the work performed under the Contract results in a complete operating system in satisfactory working condition with respect to the functional purposes of the installation, and no extra compensation will be allowed for anything omitted but fairly implied. The prices paid for the various items in the proposal shall include full compensation for furnishing all labor, materials, tools, equipment, overhead, profit, incidentals, and doing all work necessary to complete the finished product as provided in the Contract Documents. Where the drawings or Specifications describe portions of the work in general terms, but not in complete detail, it is understood that only the best general practice is to prevail and that only materials and workmanship of the highest quality are to be used. The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, tools, equipment, and incidentals, and do all the work involved in executing the Contract to the highest possible standard of workmanship.

Should it appear that the work to be done, or any of the matters relative thereto, are not sufficiently detailed or explained in the Contract Documents, or in the event of any doubt or question arising respecting the true meaning of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall apply to the Engineer in writing for such further explanations as may be necessary, and the Engineer shall render his or her decisions thereon. The Contractor shall thoroughly review all Requests for Information (RFI's) submitted by subcontractors prior to submission to the Engineer to determine whether such RFI's is already answered in the Contract Documents. Contractor represents to City of Vallejo, that by submission of an RFI, Contractor has thoroughly reviewed the RFI and thoroughly reviewed the Contract Documents and determined that the RFI is not answered or reasonably inferable in the Contract Documents, and that the RFI pertains to an unforeseen condition or circumstance that is not described in the Contract Documents, that there is a conflict or discrepancy in the Contract Documents, or there is an omission in the Contract Documents. In the event any RFI is answered or reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents, Contractor agrees to pay the City of Vallejo the reasonable cost, time and expenses associated with reviewing and responding to RFI's which are already answered or reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents. In the event of a disagreement over such compensation, the judgment of the Engineer shall be final.
4-1.02 FINAL CLEANING UP
Before final inspection of the work, the Contractor shall clean the project site, material sites and all ground occupied by the Contractor in connection with the work of all rubbish, excess materials, falsework, temporary structures and equipment in compliance with Caltrans Standard Specification 4-1.13. All parts of the work shall be left in a neat and presentable condition. Full compensation for final cleaning up will be considered as included in the prices paid for the various Contract items of work and no separate payment will be made therefore.

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 66 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
4 -1.03 CHANGES
The City reserves the right without changing the scope of work, to make such alterations deviations, additions to or deletions from the drawings and Specifications, including but not limited to, the right to add or delete any portion of the work to be done with no additional compensation or change in lump sum or bid Unit Prices. The City also reserves the right without changing the scope of work, to increase or decrease the quantity of any item or portion of the work, as may be deemed by the Engineer to be necessary or advisable and to require such extra work as may be determined by the Engineer to be required for the proper completion or construction of the whole work contemplated. Such increases or decreases in quantities shall not be a basis for change in character of the work.

The City of Vallejo may request that Contractor provide City of Vallejo with estimated costs for proposed changes to the work. Contractor agrees to promptly provide City of Vallejo with detailed, itemized costs for proposed changes to the work and scheduling data demonstrating the impact, if any, of the proposed changes to the work and the time for completion. Adjustments, if any, in the amount to be paid the Contractor by reason of any modifications of the work as set forth in a Contract Change Order, Construction Change Directive, or arising from claims shall be determined by one or more of the following methods as elected by the City of Vallejo:

A. Lump Sum Price - By an acceptable lump sum price fixed in agreement between the City of Vallejo and the Contractor.

B. Unit Prices – By unit prices fixed by agreement between the City of Vallejo and the Contractor.

C. Force Account - By directing the Contractor to proceed with the work and to keep and present in such form as the City of Vallejo may direct, a correct account of the cost of the change, together with all vouchers therefore. The Contractor will be paid for labor, materials, equipment rental, etc. actually used on change order work performed under Force Account as per Section 9-1.03 of these specifications.

The amount of payment agreed upon or, in the absence of agreement, selected by the City of Vallejo shall be set forth in the change order or construction change directive.

Upon receipt of a Contract Change Order authorized by the Engineer, the Contractor shall proceed with the ordered work. If ordered in writing by the Engineer, the Contractor shall proceed with the work so ordered prior to actual receipt of an authorized Contract Change Order therefore. In those cases, the Engineer will, as soon as practicable, issue a Contract Change Order for the ordered work and the provisions in Section 4-1.03A, "Procedure and Protest," shall be fully applicable to the subsequently issued Contract Change Order.

When the compensation for an item of work is subject to adjustment under the provisions of Section 4-1.03, the Contractor shall, upon request, furnish the Engineer with adequate detailed cost data for that item of work.

If the Contractor requests an adjustment in compensation for an item of work, the cost data shall be submitted with the request.
4-1.03A PROCEDURE AND PROTEST
A Contract Change Order authorized by the Engineer may be issued to the Contractor at any time. Should the Contractor disagree with any terms or conditions set forth in an authorized Contract Change Order not executed by the Contractor, the Contractor shall submit a written protest to the Engineer within 15 days after the receipt of the Contract Change Order. The protest shall state the points of disagreement, and the Contract

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 67 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
specification references, quantities and costs involved. If a written protest is not submitted, payment will be made as set forth in the Contract Change Order, and Contractor agrees that payment shall constitute full compensation for all work included therein or required thereby. Unprotested Contract Change Orders will be considered as executed Contract Change Orders.

Where the protest concerning an authorized Contract Change Order relates to compensation, the compensation payable for all work specified or required by that Contract Change Order to which the protest relates will be determined as provided in Section 4-1.03D. The Contractor shall keep full and complete records of the cost of that work and shall permit the Engineer to have access thereto as may be necessary to assist in the determination of the compensation payable for that work.

Where the protest concerning an accepted Contract Change Order relates to the adjustment of Contract time for the completion of the work, the time to be allowed therefor will be determined as provided in Section 8-1.07, "Liquidated Damages."
4-1.03B CHANGE ORDERS
Proposed Contract Change Orders may be presented to the Contractor for consideration prior to authorization by the Engineer. If the Contractor signifies acceptance of the terms and conditions of the proposed Contract Change Order by executing the document and if the Contract Change Order is accepted by the Engineer and issued to the Contractor, payment in accordance with the provisions as to compensation therein set forth shall constitute full compensation for all work included therein or required thereby. An accepted Contract Change Order shall supersede a proposed, but unaccepted, Contract Change Order covering the same work.

The Engineer may provide for an adjustment of compensation as to a Contract item of work included in a Contract Change Order determined as provided in Section 4-1.03D if that item of work is eligible for an adjustment of compensation thereunder.

Contract Change orders shall be in the form provided by City of Vallejo in the Contract Documents. 4-1.03C (NOT USED)
4-1.03D EXTRA WORK
New and unforeseen work will be classed as extra work when determined by the Engineer that the work is not covered by any of the various items for which there is a Unit Price or by combinations of those items. In the event portions of this work are determined by the Engineer to be covered by some of the various items for which there is a bid price or combinations of those items, the remaining portion of the work will be classed as extra work. Extra work also includes work specifically designated as extra work in the drawings or Specifications.

The Contractor shall do the extra work and furnish all labor, material, and equipment therefor upon receipt of an accepted Contract Change Order or other written order of the Engineer, and in the absence of an accepted Contract Change Order or other written order of the Engineer the Contractor shall not be entitled to payment for the extra work.

Payment for extra work required to be performed pursuant to the provisions in this Section 4-1.03D, in the absence of an executed Contract Change Order, will be made by force account as provided in Section 9-1.03; or as agreed to by the Contractor and the Engineer.

DEVIATIONS
Contractor work and materials shall strictly conform to the lines, grades, typical cross sections, dimensions, and material requirements, including tolerances, required in the Contract Documents. Although measurement, sampling and testing may be considered evidence as to conformity, the Engineer shall be the sole judge as to whether the work or materials deviate from the drawings and Specifications, and the Engineer's decision as to any allowable deviations therefrom shall be final.
5-1.04 COORDINATION AND INTERPRETATION OF PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS AND

STANDARD SPECIFICATIONS
These project drawings, specifications, Special Provisions, Contract Change Orders and all supplementary documents are essential parts of the Contract, and a requirement occurring in one Contract Document is as binding as though occurring in all. They are intended to be complementary, and to describe and provide a complete work.

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 73 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
5-1.11 ALTERNATIVE EQUIPMENT
While certain of the Contract Documents may provide that equipment of a particular size and type is to be used to perform portions of the work, it is to be understood that the development and use of new or improved equipment is to be encouraged.

The Contractor may request, in writing, permission from the Engineer to use equipment of a different size or type in place of the equipment specified.

The Engineer, before considering or granting the request, may require the Contractor to furnish, at the Contractor's expense, evidence satisfactory to the Engineer that the equipment proposed for use by the Contractor is capable of producing work equal to, or better than, that which can be produced by the equipment specified.

If permission is granted by the Engineer, it shall be understood that the permission is granted for the purpose of testing the quality of work produced by the equipment and is subject to continuous attainment of results which, in the opinion of the Engineer, are equal to, or better than, that which can be obtained with the equipment specified. The Engineer shall have the right to withdraw permission at any time that the Engineer determines that the alternative equipment is not producing work that is equal, in all respects, to that which can be produced by the equipment specified. Upon withdrawal of permission by the Engineer, the Contractor will be required to use the equipment originally specified and shall, in accordance with the directions of the Engineer, remove and dispose of or otherwise remedy, at the Contractor's expense, any defective or unsatisfactory work produced with the alternative equipment.

The Contractor shall not have any claim against the City of Vallejo for either the withholding or the granting of permission to use alternative equipment, or for the withdrawal of the permission.

Permission to use alternative equipment in place of equipment specified will only be granted where the equipment is new or improved and its use is deemed by the Engineer to be in furtherance of the purposes of this Section 5-1.11. Permission for use of particular equipment on any project shall in no way be considered as permission of the use of the equipment on any other project.

Nothing in this Section 5-1.11 shall relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for furnishing materials or producing finished work of the quality specified in the Contract Documents 5-1.12 ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF CONSTRUCTION
Whenever the drawings or Specifications provide that more than one specified method of construction or more than one specified type of material or construction equipment may be used to perform portions of the work and leave the selection of the method of construction or the type of material or equipment to be used up to the Contractor, it is understood that the City of Vallejo does not guarantee that every or any specified method of construction or type of material or equipment can be used successfully throughout all or any part of any project.

It shall be the Contractor's responsibility to select and use the alternative or alternatives which will satisfactorily perform the work under the conditions encountered. In the event some of the alternatives are not feasible or it is necessary to use more than one of the alternatives on any project, full compensation for any additional cost involved shall be considered as included in the Contract price paid for the item of work involved and no additional compensation will be allowed therefor.
5-1.13 DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS
During the progress of the work, if subsurface or latent physical conditions are encountered at the site differing

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 74 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
materially from those indicated in the Contract or if unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the work provided for in the Contract, are encountered at the site, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Engineer in writing of the specific differing conditions before they are disturbed and before the affected work is performed.

Upon written notification, the Engineer will investigate the conditions, and if the Engineer determines that the conditions materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the cost or time required for the performance of any work under the Contract, an adjustment, excluding loss of anticipated profits, will be made and the Contract modified in writing accordingly. The Engineer will notify the Contractor of the Engineer's determination whether an adjustment of the Contract is warranted.

No Contract adjustment which results in a benefit to the Contractor will be allowed unless the Contractor has provided the required written notice. Contractor agrees that failure to provide written notice to Engineer as required herein, or failure to otherwise abide by this Section, shall be a waiver by Contractor of any claim, demand, compensation or adjustment in the Contract time or working days.

No Contract adjustment will be allowed under the provisions specified in this section for any effects caused on unchanged work.

Any Contract adjustment warranted due to differing site conditions will be made in conformance with the provisions in Section 4-1.03, "Changes," except as otherwise provided. 5-1.14 CHARACTER OF WORKERS
If any subcontractor or person employed by the Contractor shall appear to the Engineer to be incompetent or to act in a disorderly or improper manner, they shall be discharged immediately on the request of the Engineer, and that person shall not again be employed on the work. 5-1.15 FINAL INSPECTION
When the work has been completed, the Engineer will make the final inspection. 5-1.16 MEANS AND METHODS
City of Vallejo will not have control over, oversee, nor be responsible for construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in connection with the work, since these are solely Contractor's responsibility.

The City of Vallejo may perform other work adjacent to or within the project area, concurrent with the Contractor's operations. The Contractor shall cooperate fully with City of Vallejo in all operations which coincide with other work being performed and provide City of Vallejo with such scheduling and other information as may be required by City of Vallejo to perform such other work.

This work performed by a second contractor may include work which is incomplete or in dispute with the Contractor.

Any disputes or conflicts which may arise between the Contractor and any other forces or contractors retained by the City of Vallejo, causing delays or hindrance to each other, shall be referred to the Engineer for resolution.

The City of Vallejo shall have the right at any time during the progress of this work to take over and place in service any completed or partially completed portion of the work, notwithstanding the time for completion of

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 75 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
the entire work or such portions which may not have expired; but such taking possession thereof shall not be deemed an acceptance of any of the work, nor work on those portions not completed in accordance with the Contract Documents.

It is understood that the inspections and tests if made at any point other than the point of incorporation in the work in no way shall be considered as a guaranty of acceptance of the material nor of continued acceptance of material presumed to be similar to that upon which inspections and tests have been made, and that inspection and testing performed by the City of Vallejo shall not relieve the Contractor or the Contractor's suppliers of responsibility for quality control.

Manufacturers' warranties, guaranties, instruction sheets and parts lists, which are furnished with certain articles or materials incorporated in the work, shall be delivered to the Engineer before acceptance of the Contract.

Reports and records of inspections made, and tests performed, when available at the site of the work, may be examined by the Contractor.
6-1.02 CITY FURNISHED MATERIALS
Materials which are listed as City of Vallejo-furnished materials in the special provisions will be available to the Contractor free of charge.

The Contractor shall submit a written request to the Engineer for the delivery of City of Vallejo-furnished material at least 15 days in advance of the date of its intended use. The request shall state the quantity and the type of each material.

The City of Vallejo-furnished materials will be available to the Contractor free of charge will be designated in

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 77 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
the special provisions. In those cases the materials shall be hauled to the site of the work by the Contractor at the Contractor's expense, including any necessary loading and unloading that may be involved. All costs of handling and placing City of Vallejo-furnished material shall be considered as included in the price paid for the Contract item involving the City of Vallejo-furnished material.

The Contractor shall be responsible for all City of Vallejo-furnished materials furnished to the Contractor, and shall pay all demurrage and storage charges. City of Vallejo-furnished materials lost or damaged from any cause whatsoever shall be replaced by the Contractor at the Contractor's expense. The Contractor shall be liable to the City of Vallejo for the cost of replacing City of Vallejo-furnished material, and those costs may be deducted from any moneys due or to become due the Contractor. All City of Vallejo-furnished material that is not used on the work shall remain the property of the City of Vallejo and shall be delivered to the Engineer’s designated location at no cost to the City.
6-1.03 STORAGE OF MATERIALS
Articles or materials to be incorporated in the work shall be stored in such a manner as to ensure the preservation of their quality and fitness for the work, and to facilitate inspection. 6-1.04 DEFECTIVE MATERIALS
All materials which the Engineer has determined do not strictly conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents will be rejected whether in place or not. The rejected materials shall be removed immediately from the site of the work, unless otherwise permitted in writing by the Engineer. No rejected material, the defects of which have been subsequently corrected, shall be used in the work, unless authorization in writing has been given by the Engineer. Upon failure of the Contractor to comply promptly with any order of the Engineer made under the provisions in this section, the Engineer shall have authority to cause the removal and replacement of rejected material and to deduct the cost thereof from any moneys due or to become due the Contractor.

If nonconforming work, materials, or equipment not meeting the requirements and intent of the Contract Documents is discovered, and the Contractor fails to remedy the nonconforming work, materials, or equipment, or the City of Vallejo agrees in writing to accept the nonconforming work, materials, or equipment, Contractor agrees to sign a Contract Change Order or otherwise reimburse City of Vallejo in a sum equal to the cost to remedy the nonconforming work, materials, or equipment. It is expressly understood and agreed that the City of Vallejo will be entitled to recover from Contractor the full cost of remedying nonconforming work, materials, or equipment, and that diminution in value will not be considered as a method for valuing the City of Vallejo's damages for nonconforming work, materials, or equipment, and further that the doctrine of economic waste will not be a defense to the City of Vallejo's recovery from Contractor of the full and complete cost and expense of remedying nonconforming work, materials, or equipment.

Re-examination of any work may be ordered by the Engineer, and such work must be uncovered by the Contractor. The Contractor shall pay the entire cost of such uncovering, re-examination, and replacement if the work does not conform to the Contract Documents.
6-1.05 TRADE NAMES AND ALTERNATIVES
For convenience in designation on the Contract Documents, certain articles or materials to be incorporated in the work may be designated under a trade name or the name of a manufacturer and the manufacturer's catalogue information. The use of an alternative article or material which is of equal or superior quality and of the required characteristics for the purpose intended will be permitted, subject to the following requirements:

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 78 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
The burden of proof as to the quality and suitability of alternatives shall be upon the Contractor, and the Contractor shall furnish all information necessary as required by the Engineer. The Engineer shall be the sole judge as to the quality and suitability of alternative articles or materials, and the Engineer's decision shall be final.

Whenever the Contract Documents permit the substitution of a similar or equivalent material or article, no tests or action relating to the acceptance of the substitute material will be made until the request for substitution is made in writing by the Contractor accompanied by complete data as to the equality of the material or article proposed. Request for such substitution shall be made in writing by the Contractor within thirty (30) days of the Notice to Proceed. Failure by the Contractor to request substitution within thirty (30) days of the Notice to Proceed constitutes an agreement by Contractor to furnish only the materials or equipment listed in the Contract Documents. Until and unless such substitutions are authorized in writing by the Engineer, no deviations from the specifications shall be allowed.
6-1.06 PLANT INSPECTION
The Engineer may inspect the production of material or the manufacture of products at the source of supply.

Plant inspection, however, will not be undertaken until the Engineer is assured of the cooperation and assistance of both the Contractor and the material producer. The Engineer or the Engineer's authorized representative shall have free entry at all times to those parts of the plant as concerns the manufacture or production of the materials. Adequate facilities shall be furnished free of charge to make the necessary inspection. The City of Vallejo assumes no obligation to inspect materials at the source of supply. 6-1.07 CERTIFICATES OF COMPLIANCE
A Certificate of Compliance shall be furnished prior to the use of any materials for which the Contract Documents require that a certificate be furnished. In addition, when so authorized in the Contract Documents, the Engineer may permit the use of certain materials or assemblies prior to sampling and testing if accompanied by a Certificate of Compliance. The certificate shall be signed by the manufacturer of the material or the manufacturer of assembled materials and shall state that the materials involved comply in all respects with the requirements of the Contract Documents. A Certificate of Compliance shall be furnished with each lot of material delivered to the work and the lot so certified shall be clearly identified in the certificate.

Materials used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance may be sampled and tested at any time. The fact that material is used on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for incorporating material in the work which conforms to the requirements of the Contract Documents, and any material not conforming to the requirements will be subject to rejection whether in place or not.

The City of Vallejo reserves the right to refuse to permit the use of material on the basis of a Certificate of Compliance.

The form of the Certificate of Compliance and its disposition shall be as directed by the Engineer. 6-1.08 FOREIGN MATERIALS
Materials which are manufactured, produced or fabricated outside of the United States shall be delivered to a distribution point in California, unless otherwise required in the Contract Documents, where they shall be

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 79 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
retained for a sufficient period of time to permit inspection, sampling and testing.

Attention is directed to the provisions in Section 8-1.07, "Liquidated Damages." The Contractor shall not be entitled to an extension of time for acts or events occurring outside of the United States, and it shall be the Contractor's responsibility to deliver materials obtained from outside of the United States to the point of entry into the continental United States in sufficient time to permit timely delivery to the job site.

The Contractor, at no cost to the City of Vallejo, shall supply the facilities and arrange for any testing required in California which the City of Vallejo is not equipped to perform. All testing by the Contractor shall be subject to witnessing by the Engineer.

The manufacturer, producer or fabricator of foreign material shall furnish to the Engineer a Certificate of Compliance in conformance with the provisions in Section 6-1.07, "Certificates of Compliance." In addition, certified mill test reports clearly identifiable to the lot of material shall be furnished where required in the Contract Documents or otherwise requested by the Engineer.

If the welding of steel for structural steel members or the casting and prestressing of precast, prestressed concrete members is to be performed outside of the United States, the following requirements shall apply:

A. The fabrication shall be performed only within the plants and by fabricators who have previously established, to the satisfaction of the Engineer, that they have the experience, knowledge, trained manpower, quality controls, equipment and other facilities required to produce the quality and quantity of work required. At the option of the Engineer, prequalification of the plant and fabricator will be established either by the submission of detailed written proof thereof or through in-plant inspection by the Engineer or the Engineer's representative, or both.

B. The Contractor shall make written application to the Engineer for acceptance for the foreign fabrication at the earliest possible time and in no case later than 50 days in advance of the planned start of fabrication. The application shall list the specific units or portion of a work which will be fabricated outside of the United States.

C. The Contractor shall advise the Engineer, in writing, at least 20 days in advance of the actual start of any of the foreign fabrication.

D. All documents pertaining to the Contract, including but not limited to, correspondence, bid documents, working drawings and data shall be written in the English language and all numerical data shall use the International System of Units (SI) {United States Standard Measures} for measurement.

The use of steel manufactured outside of the United States as unidentified stock material, as provided in Section 55-2.07, "Unidentified Stock Material," will not be allowed.

END OF SECTION

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 80 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
SECTION 7: LEGAL RELATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITY
7-1.01 LAWS TO BE OBSERVED
The Contractor shall keep fully informed of all existing and future laws, ordinances and regulations which in any manner affect those engaged or employed in the work, or the materials used in the work, or which in any way affect the conduct of the work, and of all orders and decrees of bodies or tribunals having any jurisdiction or authority over the same. The Contractor shall at all times observe and comply with, and shall cause all the Contractor's agents, employees, subcontractors and material suppliers to observe and comply with all existing and future laws, ordinances, regulations, orders and decrees of bodies or tribunals having any jurisdiction or authority over the work; and shall protect and indemnify the City of Vallejo, and all officers and employees thereof connected with the work, including but not limited to the Director and the Engineer, against any claim or liability arising from or based on the violation of any law, ordinance, regulation, order or decree, whether by the Contractor or the Contractor's employees. If any discrepancy or inconsistency is discovered in the Contract Documents for the work in relation to any law, ordinance, regulation, order or decree, each Bidder and the Contractor shall forthwith report the same to the Engineer in writing. 7-1.01A LABOR CODE REQUIREMENTS
Attention is directed to the following requirements of the Labor Code:
7-1.01A (1) HOURS OF LABOR
Eight hours of labor constitutes a legal day's work. The Contractor or any subcontractor under the Contractor shall forfeit, as a penalty to the State of California, $25 for each worker employed in the execution of the Contract by the respective Contractor or subcontractor for each calendar day during which that worker is required or permitted to work more than 8 hours in any one calendar day and 40 hours in any one calendar week in violation of the requirements of the Labor Code, and in particular, Section 1810 to Section 1815, thereof, inclusive, except that work performed by employees of Contractors in excess of 8 hours per day, and 40 hours during any one week, shall be permitted upon compensation for all hours worked in excess of 8 hours per day at not less than one and one-half times the basic rate of pay, as provided in Section 1815 thereof. 7-1.01A (2) PREVAILING WAGE
The Contractor and any subcontractor under the Contractor shall comply with Labor Code Sections 1774 and 1775. Pursuant to Section 1775, the Contractor and any subcontractor under the Contractor shall forfeit to the City of Vallejo or political subdivision on whose behalf the Contract is made or awarded a penalty of not more than fifty dollars ($50) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker paid less than the prevailing rates as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations for the work or craft in which the worker is employed for any public work done under the Contract by the Contractor or by any subcontractor under the Contractor in violation of the requirements of the Labor Code and in particular, Labor Code Sections 1770 to 1780, inclusive.

The amount of this forfeiture shall be determined by the Labor Commissioner and shall be based on consideration of the mistake, inadvertence, or neglect of the Contractor or subcontractor in failing to pay the correct rate of prevailing wages, or the previous record of the Contractor or subcontractor in meeting their respective prevailing wage obligations, or the willful failure by the Contractor or subcontractor to pay the correct rates of prevailing wages. A mistake, inadvertence, or neglect in failing to pay the correct rate of prevailing wages is not excusable if the Contractor or subcontractor had knowledge of the obligations under the Labor

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 81 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
Code. In addition to the penalty and pursuant to Labor Code Section 1775, the difference between the prevailing wage rates and the amount paid to each worker for each calendar day or portion thereof for which each worker was paid less than the prevailing wage rate shall be paid to each worker by the Contractor or subcontractor. If a worker employed by a subcontractor on a public works project is not paid the general prevailing per diem wages by the subcontractor, the prime Contractor of the project is not liable for the penalties described above unless the prime Contractor had knowledge of that failure of the subcontractor to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to those workers or unless the prime Contractor fails to comply with all of the following requirements:

A. The Contract executed between the Contractor and the subcontractor for the performance of work on the public works project shall include a copy of the requirements in Sections 1771, 1775, 1776, 1777.5, 1813 and 1815 of the Labor Code.

B. The Contractor shall monitor the payment of the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages by the subcontractor to the employees, by periodic review of the certified payroll records of the subcontractor.

C. Upon becoming aware of the subcontractor's failure to pay the specified prevailing rate of wages to the subcontractor's workers, the Contractor shall diligently take corrective action to halt or rectify the failure, including, but not limited to, retaining sufficient funds due the subcontractor for work performed on the public works project.

D. Prior to making final payment to the subcontractor for work performed on the public works project, the Contractor shall obtain an affidavit signed under penalty of perjury from the subcontractor that the subcontractor has paid the specified general prevailing rate of per diem wages to the subcontractor's employees on the public works project and any amounts due pursuant to Section 1813 of the Labor Code.

Pursuant to Section 1775 of the Labor Code, the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall notify the Contractor on a public works project within 15 days of the receipt by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement of a complaint of the failure of a subcontractor on that public works project to pay workers the general prevailing rate of per diem wages. If the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement determines that employees of a subcontractor were not paid the general prevailing rate of per diem wages and if the City of Vallejo did not retain sufficient money under the Contract to pay those employees the balance of wages owed under the general prevailing rate of per diem wages, the Contractor shall withhold an amount of moneys due the subcontractor sufficient to pay those employees the general prevailing rate of per diem wages if requested by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. The Contractor shall pay any money retained from and owed to a subcontractor upon receipt of notification by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement that the wage complaint has been resolved. If notice of the resolution of the wage complaint has not been received by the Contractor within 180 days of the filing of a valid notice of completion or acceptance of the public works project, whichever occurs later, the Contractor shall pay all moneys retained from the subcontractor to the City of Vallejo. These moneys shall be retained by the City of Vallejo pending the final decision of an enforcement action.

Pursuant to the requirements in Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the City of Vallejo has obtained the general prevailing rate of wages (which rate includes employer payments for health and welfare, pension, vacation, travel time and subsistence pay as provided for in Section 1773.8 of the Labor Code, apprenticeship or other training programs authorized by Section 3093 of the Labor Code, and similar purposes) applicable to the work to be done, for straight time, overtime, Saturday, Sunday and holiday work. The holiday wage rate listed shall be applicable to all holidays recognized in the collective bargaining agreement of the particular craft, classification or type of workmen concerned.

General prevailing wage rates are also available from the California State Department of Industrial Relations' Internet Web Site at:

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 82 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
http://www.dir.ca.gov/OPRL/dprewagedetermination.htm
The wage rates determined by the Director of Industrial Relations for the project refer to expiration dates.

Prevailing wage determinations with a single asterisk after the expiration date are in effect on the date of advertisement for bids and are good for the life of the Contract. Prevailing wage determinations with double asterisks after the expiration date indicate that the wage rate to be paid for work performed after this date has been determined. If work is to extend past this date, the new rate shall be paid and incorporated in the Contract.

The Contractor shall contact the Department of Industrial Relations as indicated in the wage rate determinations to obtain predetermined wage changes.

Pursuant to Section 1773.2 of the Labor Code, general prevailing wage rates shall be posted by the Contractor at a prominent place at the site of the work.

Changes in general prevailing wage determinations which conform to Labor Code Section 1773.6 and Title 8 California Code of Regulations Section 16204 shall apply to the project when issued by the Director of Industrial Relations at least 10 days prior to the date of the Notice to Contractors for the project.

The City of Vallejo will not recognize any claim for additional compensation because of the payment by the Contractor of any wage rate in excess of the prevailing wage rate set forth in the Contract. The possibility of wage increases is one of the elements to be considered by the Contractor in determining the bid and will not under any circumstances be considered as the basis of a claim against the City of Vallejo on the Contract by Contractor.
7-1.01A(2)(A) TRAVEL AND SUBSISTENCE PAYMENTS
Attention is directed to the requirements in Section 1773.8 of the Labor Code. The Contractor shall make travel and subsistence payments to each workman, needed to execute the work, in conformance with the requirements in Labor Code Section 1773.8.

Full compensation for conforming to the requirement of this section shall be considered as included in the prices paid for the various contract items of work involved and no additional compensation will be allowed, therefore.
7-1.01A(3) PAYROLL RECORDS
Attention is directed to the requirements in Labor Code Section 1776, a portion of which is quoted below.

Regulations implementing Labor Code Section 1776 are located in Sections 16016 through 16019 and Sections 16207.10 through 16207.19 of Title 8, California Code of Regulations.

A. Each Contractor and subcontractor shall keep accurate payroll records, showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work. Each payroll record shall contain or be verified by a written declaration that it is made under penalty of perjury, stating both of the following:

1. The information contained in the payroll record is true and correct.

2. The employer has complied with the requirements of Sections 1771, 1811, and 1815 for any work performed by his or her employees on the public works project.

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 83 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
B. The payroll records enumerated under subdivision (a) shall be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of the Contractor on the following basis:

1. A certified copy of an employee's payroll record shall be made available for inspection or furnished to the employee or his or her authorized representative on request.

2. A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available for inspection or furnished upon request to a representative of the body awarding the Contract, the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, and the Division of Apprenticeship Standards of the Department of Industrial Relations.

3. A certified copy of all payroll records enumerated in subdivision (a) shall be made available upon request by the public for inspection or for copies thereof. However, a request by the public shall be made through either the body awarding the Contract, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement. If the requested payroll records have not been provided pursuant to paragraph (2), the requesting party shall, prior to being provided the records, reimburse the costs of preparation by the Contractor, subcontractors, and the entity through which the request was made. The public shall not be given access to the records at the principal office of the Contractor.

C. The certified payroll records shall be on forms provided by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement or shall contain the same information as the forms provided by the division.

D. A Contractor or subcontractor shall file a certified copy of the records enumerated in subdivision (a) with the entity that requested the records within 10 days after receipt of a written request.

E. Any copy of records made available for inspection as copies and furnished upon request to the public or any public agency by the awarding body, the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement shall be marked or obliterated in a manner so as to prevent disclosure of an individual's name, address and social security number. The name and address of the Contractor awarded the Contract or the subcontractor performing the Contract shall not be marked or obliterated.

F. The Contractor shall inform the body awarding the Contract of the location of the records enumerated under subdivision (a), including the street address, city and county, and shall, within five working days, provide a notice of a change of location and address.

G. The Contractor or subcontractor shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of a written notice requesting the records enumerated in subdivision (a). In the event that the Contractor or subcontractor fails to comply within the 10-day period, he or she shall, as a penalty to the state or political subdivision on whose behalf the Contract is made or awarded, forfeit twenty-five dollars ($25) for each calendar day, or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, these penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. A Contractor is not subject to a penalty assessment pursuant to this section due to the failure of a subcontractor to comply with this section."
The penalties specified in subdivision (g) of Labor Code Section 1776 for noncompliance with the requirements in Section 1776 may be deducted from any moneys due or which may become due to the Contractor.

All contractors and subcontractors must furnish electronic certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner (aka Division of Labor Standards Enforcement). Payrolls shall contain the full name, address and social security number of each employee, the employee's correct classification, rate of pay, daily and weekly number of hours worked, itemized deductions made and actual wages paid. They shall also indicate apprentices and ratio of apprentices to journeymen. The employee's address and social security number need only appear on the first payroll on which that name appears. The payroll shall be accompanied by a "Statement

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 84 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
of Compliance" signed by the employer or the employer's agent indicating that the payrolls are correct and complete and that the wage rates contained therein are not less than those required by the Contract. The "Statement of Compliance" shall be on forms furnished by the City of Vallejo or on any form with identical wording. The Contractor shall be responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls of all subcontractors.

If by the 15th of the month, the Contractor has not submitted satisfactory payrolls for all work performed during the monthly period ending on or before the 1st of that month, the City of Vallejo may retain an amount equal to 10 percent of the estimated value of the work performed (exclusive of Mobilization) during the month from the next monthly estimate, except that this retention shall not exceed $10,000 nor be less than $1,000.

Retentions for failure to submit satisfactory payrolls shall be additional to all other retentions provided for in the Contract. The retention for failure to submit payrolls for any monthly period will be released for payment on the monthly estimate for partial payments next following the date that all the satisfactory payrolls for which the retention was made are submitted.

The Contractor and each subcontractor shall preserve their payroll records for a period of 3 years from the date of completion of the Contract.
7-1.01A(4) LABOR NONDISCRIMINATION
Attention is directed to Section 1735 of the Labor Code, which reads as follows:
"No discrimination shall be made in the employment of persons upon public works because of the race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry, physical handicap, medical condition, marital status, or sex of such persons, except as provided in Section 12940 of the Government Code, and every Contractor for public works violating this section is subject to all the penalties imposed for a violation of this chapter." Attention is directed to the following "Nondiscrimination Clause" that is required by Chapter 5 of Division 4 of Title 2, California Code of Regulations.

NONDISCRIMINATION CLAUSE
“During the performance of this Contract, Contractor and its SUBCONTRACTORS shall not unlawfully discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, religion, color, national origin, ancestry, physical handicap, medical condition, marital status, age (over 40) or sex.

Contractor and its SUBCONTRACTORS shall give written notice of their obligations under this clause to labor organizations with which they have a collective bargaining or other agreement.” The Contractor shall include the nondiscrimination and compliance provisions of this clause in all subcontracts to perform work under the Contract.
7-1.01A(5) APPRENTICES
Attention is directed to Sections 1777.5, 1777.6 and 1777.7 of the California Labor Code and Title 8, California Code of Regulations Section 200 et seq. To ensure compliance and complete understanding of the law

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 85 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
regarding apprentices, and specifically the required ratio thereunder, each Contractor or subcontractor should, where some question exists, contact the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, 455 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94102, or one of its branch offices prior to commencement of work on the public works Contract.

Responsibility for compliance with this section lies with the Contractor.

It is City of Vallejo policy to encourage the employment and training of apprentices on public works Contracts as may be permitted under local apprenticeship standards.

A. Only registered apprentices within a written agreement in an approved apprentice-training program providing no less than 2,000 hours of continuous employment and education are eligible for employment on public works (in compliance with Labor Section 3077).

B. A contractor is no longer required to submit Form DAS-7, but must submit award information to the local applicable joint apprenticeship committee. The award information must include:
•an estimate of the journeyman hours;
•the number of apprentices to be employed; and
•the approximate dates of apprentice employment.

C. The minimum statutory 1:5 hourly ratio of work stipulates that no less than one hour of apprentice work for every five hours of journeyman labor on any day of work. (Any journeyman work performed beyond 8 hours per day or 40 hours per week shall not be used to calculate the hourly ratio).

This section shall not apply to specialty contractors or general contractors whose contracts involve less than Thirty Thousand Dollars ($30,000.00) or 20 working days.

The Division of Apprenticeship Standards may grant a certificate exempting the contractor from the minimum 1:5 hourly ratios under any one of the following:

Unemployment exceeds an average of 15% in the area for the previous 3-month period; The number of apprentices in training in such area exceeds a ratio of 1:5; The apprentice able craft or trade is replacing at least one-thirtieth of its journeymen annually through apprenticeship training, either locally or statewide;
The specific task would jeopardize the apprentice's life or public safety or no training can be provided to an apprentice by a journeyman for the specific task.

D. Apprentices employed on public works projects can only be assigned to perform work of the craft or trade to which the apprentice is registered.

E. All contractors with employees in any apprentice able occupation, regardless of the actual employment of journeymen or apprentices for the awarded public work, must either contribute to the local training trust fund or to the California Apprenticeship Council, P.O. Box 603, San Francisco, CA 94101 (as set forth in Section 227).

F. All violations of Section 1777.5 shall pay a civil penalty of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) for each calendar day of noncompliance.

All willful violations of Section 1777.5 shall pay the $50.00 fine for each calendar day of noncompliance and shall be denied the right to bid on, or to receive, any public works contract for a period of up to one year for the first violation and up to three years for any additional violations.

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 86 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
Compliance disputes arising under Section 177.5 shall be adjudicated under 8 California Code of Regulations, Article 1.

G. Within five (5) days of a public works contract award, the awarding agency must send a copy of the award to the Division of Apprenticeship Standards under Section 1773.3.

Within five (5) days of finding any discrepancy regarding the hourly ratio of apprentices to journeymen, the awarding agency shall notify the Division of Apprenticeship Standards.

H. The Contractor shall be responsible for compliance for all apprentice able occupations within these sections.
7-1.01A(6) WORKERS' COMPENSATION
Pursuant to the requirements in Section 1860 of the Labor Code, the Contractor will be required to secure the payment of workers' compensation to the Contractor's employees in conformance with the requirements in Section 3700 of the Labor Code.

Prior to the commencement of work, the Contractor shall sign and file with the Engineer a certification in the following form:
"I am aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the Labor Code which require every employer to be insured against liability for workers' compensation or to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that code, and I will comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work of this Contract."
This certification is incorporated in the Contract by reference, and signature and return of the Contract as provided in Section 3-1.03, "Execution of Contract," shall constitute signing and filing of the certificate. 7-1.01A(7) SUITS TO RECOVER PENALTIES AND FORFEITURES
Attention is directed to Sections 1730 to 1733, inclusive, of the Labor Code concerning suits to recover amounts withheld from payment for failure to comply with requirements of the Labor Code or Contract provisions based on those laws.

Those sections provide that a suit on the Contract for alleged breach thereof in not making the payment is the exclusive remedy of the Contractor or the Contractor's assignees with reference to amounts withheld for those penalties or forfeitures; and that the suit must be commenced and actual notice thereof received by the awarding authority prior to 90 days after completion of the Contract and the formal acceptance of the job. 7-1.01B FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT
The attention of Bidders is invited to the fact that the City of Vallejo has been advised by the Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of Labor, that Contractors engaged in highway construction work are required to meet the provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 and as amended (52 Stat. 1060).

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 87 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
7-1.01C CONTRACTOR'S LICENSING LAWS

7-1.01G(7) PAVEMENT SAW CUTTING OPERATIONS
The Contractor shall prevent any saw cutting debris from entering the storm drain system. The Contractor shall preferably use dry cutting techniques and sweep up residue. If wet methods are used, the Contractor shall vacuum slurry as cutting proceeds or collect all wastewater by constructing a sandbag sediment barrier.

The bermed area shall be of adequate size to collect all wastewater and solids. The Contractor shall allow collected water to evaporate, as approved by the Engineer, if the wastewater volume is minimal and if maintaining the ponding area does not interfere with public use of the street area, create a safety hazard, or does not create standing water that remains longer than 72 hours. If the Engineer approves, the Contractor may direct or pump saw cutting wastewater to a dirt area for infiltration. This dirt area shall be adequate to contain all the wastewater. After wastewater has infiltrated, all remaining saw cutting residue must be removed and disposed of properly.

With the approval of Vallejo Flood and Wastewater District (VFWD) and the Engineer, de-silted water may be pumped to the sanitary sewer to assist in the evaporation or infiltration process. Remaining silt and debris from the ponding or bermed area shall be removed or vacuumed and disposed of properly. If a suitable dirt area is not available or discharge to the sanitary sewer is not feasible, with the Engineer’s approval the Contractor shall filter the saw-cutting wastewater through filtering materials and methods meeting ABAG Standards for Erosion and Sedimentation Control Measures (latest edition) before discharging this wastewater to the storm drain.
7-1.01G(8) PAVEMENT OPERATIONS
The Contractor shall prevent the discharge of pollutants from paving operations by using measures to prevent run-on and runoff pollution, properly disposing of wastes, and by implementing the following Best Management Practices:
a. No paving during wet weather.
b. Store materials as required by 7-1.01G(6) Material Storage, c. Cover inlets and manholes when applying asphalt, seal coat, tack coat, slurry seal, fog seal, etc. d. Place drip pans or absorbent materials under paving equipment when not in use. During wet weather store contaminated paving equipment indoors or cover with tarp or other waterproof covering. e. Sweep work site daily to prevent sand, gravel or excess asphalt from entering, or being transported by rain, into the storm drain system.
f. Keep ample supplies of drip pans or absorbent materials on-site. g. If paving involves Portland cement concrete, refer to 7-1.01G(6) Material Storage. 7-1.01G(9) CONCRETE OPERATIONS

Ghilotti Bros. Inc. Construction Contract Page 92 of 192 Cape Seal 2025 Project No. MP2025
c. Do not wash out concrete trucks into storm drains, open ditches, streets, streams etc. Whenever possible, perform washout of concrete trucks off site where discharge is controlled and not permitted to discharge to the storm drain system.

For on-site washout:
i. Locate washout area at least 50 feet from storm drains, open ditches or other water bodies, preferably in a dirt area. Prevent runoff from this area by constructing a temporary pit or bermed area large enough to store the liquid and solid waste.
ii. Wash out concrete wastes into the temporary pit where the concrete can set, be broken up and then disposed of properly. If the water volume is greater than what will allow concrete to set, allow the wash water to infiltrate and/or evaporate, if possible. Otherwise, allow wash water to settle, then filter and pump it to the sanitary sewer with approval from VSFCD and the Engineer. Remove or vacuum the remaining silt and debris from the ponding or bermed area and dispose of it properly. d. Dispose of wastewater from exposed aggregate washing to a dirt area adequate to contain all the wastewater. Once the wastewater has infiltrated, remove any remaining residue. If a suitable dirt area is not available, filter the wash water through straw bales or other filtering materials meeting ABAG Standards for Erosion and Sediment Control Measures before discharging the wash water to the sanitary sewer with approval from VSFCD and the Engineer. e. Collect and return sweepings from exposed aggregate concrete to a stockpile or dispose of the waste in a trash container.

After subgrade preparation for a specified layer of material has been completed, the Contractor shall, at the Contractor's expense, repair any damage to the roadbed or completed subgrade, including damage caused by the Contractor's operations or use by public traffic.

While subgrade and paving operations are underway, public traffic shall be permitted to use the shoulders and, if half-width paving methods are used, shall also be permitted to use the side of the roadbed opposite the one under construction. When sufficient width is available, a passageway wide enough to accommodate at least 2 lanes of traffic shall be kept open at locations where subgrade and paving operations are in active progress.

Any shaping of shoulders or reshaping of subgrade necessary for the accommodation of public traffic thereon during subgrade preparation and paving operations will be paid for as extra work as provided in Section 4-1.03D.

Water or dust palliative shall be applied if ordered by the Engineer for the alleviation or prevention of dust nuisance as provided in Section 10, "Dust Control."
The Contractor will be required to pay the cost of replacing or repairing all facilities installed under extra work for the convenience or direction or warning of public traffic that are lost while in the Contractor's custody, or are damaged by reason of the Contractor's operations to such an extent as to require replacement or repair, and deductions from any moneys due or to become due the Contractor will be made to cover the cost.

Whenever a section of surfacing, pavement or the deck of a structure has been completed, the Contractor shall open it to use by public traffic if the Engineer so orders or may open it to use by public traffic if the Engineer so consents. In either case the Contractor will not be allowed any compensation due to any delay, hindrance or inconvenience to the Contractor's operations caused by public traffic, but will thereupon be relieved of responsibility for damage to completed permanent facilities caused by public traffic, within the limits of that use. The Contractor will not be relieved of any other responsibility under the Contract nor will the Contractor be relieved of cleanup and finishing operations.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7-1.08 or in the special provisions, full compensation for

7-1.09 PUBLIC SAFETY
It is the Contractor's responsibility to provide for the safety of traffic and the public during construction.

Attention is directed to Section 7-1.12, "Indemnification and Insurance." Attention is directed to Section 7-1.08, "Public Convenience," for provisions relating to the Contractor's responsibility for providing for the convenience of the public in connection with the Contractor's operations.

The installation of general roadway illumination shall not relieve the Contractor of the responsibility for furnishing and maintaining any of the protective facilities herein before specified.

Construction equipment shall enter and leave the highway via existing ramps and crossovers and shall move in the direction of public traffic. All movements of workmen and construction equipment on or across lanes open to public traffic shall be performed in a manner that will not endanger public traffic.

The Contractor's trucks or other mobile equipment which leave a freeway lane, that is open to public traffic, to enter the construction area, shall slow down gradually in advance of the location of the turnoff to give following public traffic an opportunity to slow down.

When leaving a work area and entering a roadway carrying public traffic, the Contractor's equipment, whether empty or loaded, shall in all cases yield to public traffic.

Lanes, ramps and shoulders shall be closed in accordance with the details shown on the drawings, the provisions of Section 12, "Construction Area Traffic Control Devices," and as provided in the special provisions.

The Contractor shall notify the Engineer not less than 15 days before the anticipated start of each falsework and girder erection operation whenever the falsework or girders will reduce clearances available to public traffic.

Pedestrian openings through falsework shall be paved or provided with full width continuous wood walks and shall be kept clear. Pedestrians shall be protected from falling objects and curing water for concrete. Overhead protection for pedestrians shall extend not less than 1.2 m {4 feet} beyond the edge of the bridge deck.

The minimum height of the letters and numbers shall be 150 mm {6 inches} and 250 mm {10 inches}, respectively.

No material or equipment shall be stored where it will interfere with the free and safe passage of public traffic, and at the end of each day's work and at other times when construction operations are suspended for any reason, the Contractor shall remove all equipment and other obstructions from that portion of the roadway open for use by public traffic.

Temporary facilities which the Contractor uses to perform the work shall not be installed or placed where they will interfere with the free and safe passage of public traffic.

Temporary facilities which could be a hazard to public safety if improperly designed shall comply with design requirements specified in the Contract for those facilities or, if none are specified, with standard design criteria or codes appropriate for the facility involved. Working drawings and design calculations for the temporary facilities shall be prepared and signed by an engineer who is registered as a Civil Engineer in the State of California and shall be submitted to the Engineer for review pursuant to Section 5-1.02, "Plans and Working Drawings." The submittals shall designate thereon the standard design criteria or codes used. Installation of the temporary facilities shall not start until the Engineer has reviewed and accepted the drawings.

Should the Contractor appear to be neglectful or negligent in furnishing warning devices and taking protective measures as above provided, the Engineer may direct attention to the existence of a hazard and the necessary warning devices shall be furnished and installed and protective measures taken by the Contractor at the Contractor's expense. Should the Engineer point out the inadequacy of warning devices and protective measures, that action on the part of the Engineer shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for public safety or abrogate the obligation to furnish and pay for these devices and measures.
