Subject
Services Agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. for On-Call Nuisance Abatement Services Recommendation
A. Find that the proposed action is categorically exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, because the project consists of the maintenance, repair or minor alteration of existing facilities and involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use; and
B. Approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a Services Agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc., in substantially the same form as submitted, for On-Call Nuisance Abatement Services for a total amount not-to-exceed $400,000, for a three (3) year term.
Background
The Public Works Department is in the process of retaining a qualified contractor to provide oncall abatement services. These services are intended to address and mitigate conditions that pose risks to public health and safety, cause property damage, or interfere with the reasonable enjoyment of life and property. Such conditions often result in public nuisances or significant inconvenience to the community. The scope of work includes, but is not limited to: the cleanup and disposal of large bulky items; hazardous and non-hazardous trash and debris; removal of abandoned trailers and recreational vehicles; demolition of nuisance structures; and other abatement-related tasks as directed by the City. All services will be provided on an as-needed basis and initiated through individual work orders issued by the City. Contractors are expected to complete all assigned tasks in a timely and efficient manner.
Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code (VMC) Section 3.32.080, the Public Works Department issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to select a firm that could provide the desired services. The RFP for On-Call Nuisance Abatement Services was issued on April 23, 2025, via the PlanetBids online portal with responses due by May 8, 2025. One firm submitted a proposal in response to the RFP by the specified deadline. After reviewing the proposal and conducting reference checks, it was determined that Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. will meet the needs of the Department based on their responsiveness to the RFP, professional qualifications, and experience.
Pursuant to VMC Section 3.32.030 (A), all contracts over $100,000 require City Council approval.
The proposed Services Agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc., is not-to-exceed $400,000.
Therefore, it is recommended that City Council approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a services agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc.
The proposed services agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office.
Fiscal Impact
The fiscal impact is not-to-exceed $400,000 for the three (3) year term of the Services Agreement. Sufficient funds are available in General Fund, Public Works Department, Administration-Engineering-Planning, Professional Services - Account No. 011-040-400-529215 for the current fiscal year and will be budgeted in subsequent years.
