That the City Council award a contract to Rite-Way Roof Corporation in the amount of $155,206.00 for the Transportation Center Re-Roof, Project CC23-063.
Fiscal Impact:
This project was approved and included in the Fiscal Year 22/23 Annual Budget and will be funded by Special Revenue Fund (Fund 470), Victorville Transportation Center Funds (4705403-55060-81016). The project funds initially came from the General Fund and moved over to the new Special Revenue Fund 470.

The revenue for this fund is generated from a lease agreement with Victor Valley Transit Authority. The budget for this project is $265,000.00.

State Wages - In accordance with the provisions of California Labor Code Sections (1720,1770-1776, 1810, 1813 and 1815, as amended and applicable) , the State Director of Industrial Relations has determined the general prevailing rates of per diem wages in the locality where the Project is to be done.

prevailing rate of per diem wages and federal wage decision rates are on file at the City of Victorville Finance Department and shall be made available for review to any interested party on request.
Notwithstanding anything in the Contract Documents to the contrary, Contractor and all subcontractors shall pay not less than said specified State of California rates to all workers employed by them in the execution of the work contemplated by this Contract.

The statute also requires a written agreement between the party hauling or delivering the ready- mixed concrete and the party that engaged its services.

The time record must be certified by each driver for the performance of job duties.
d. Contractor shall be solely responsible for using the correct wage decision or determination and performing accordingly.

Submitted By:
Joe Slegers, Building Official
Subject:
Consultant/Professional Services Provider Agreement with TR Design Group for the Green Tree Clubhouse Library Relocation, Phase A Revision and Phase B, Project CC22- 037-A
Recommendation:
That the Honorable City Council approve a Consultant/Professional Services Provider Agreement in the amount of $896,014.98 with TR Design Group, Inc. for the Green Tree Clubhouse Library Relocation, Phase A Revision and Phase B, Project CC22-037-A Fiscal Impact:
Acting in accordance with the staff recommendation will result in a fiscal impact of $896,014.98.
The Building Forward Library Infrastructure Program Grant, provided by the California State Library will only fund design fees related to the base building addition of the clubhouse specifically designated for library space. Therefore, the services provided by TR Design Group will be funded by both the Building Forward Grant Account 2706030- 52300-21379 and Measure P (Fund 105) Account 1056030-52300-80075. Below is a summary of the design fees that will be funded by the Building Forward Grant and Measure P.
Account Available Funds TR Design Proposal
2706030-52300-21379 $550,000.00 $512,375.00
1056030-52300-80075 $400,000.00 $383,639.98
Total $896,014.98
Strategic Plan Goal:
The City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2020-2023 identifies multi-year strategic goals and various strategies to work toward achieving those goals. Goal E, Invest in Infrastructure, focuses on creating a healthy and livable community by maintaining the city’s assets 2 9
4 4
through investment in infrastructure and innovations. Specific to this project, Strategy 3 focuses on completing the Library Master Plan and developing implementation strategies to improve and enhance Library services in the community. Council adopted the Library Master Plan on April 20, 2021, and staff have been working to implement recommendations therein.
Background:
Through the Master Plan process, it was determined that the current library facility has inadequate space to serve the City’s current population. The current library facility has a footprint of 8,229 sq. ft. The City needs approximately 14,990 sq. ft. to serve the current population.
In May 2021, space became available at the Green Tree Golf Course Clubhouse (Clubhouse), prompting staff to investigate the potential for Library’s relocation. The Clubhouse location was consistent with certain Master Plan recommendations in that it is centrally located, has natural lighting desired for library facilities, and has an improved outdoor area for programming and use by library patrons. Due to its more recent construction date, the site also provides a higher level of code compliance including enhanced levels of ADA accessibility for visiting patrons. Because of these findings, staff elected to proceed and seek the services of an architectural design firm to redesign the Clubhouse into the City Library.
On March 15, 2022, Council unanimously awarded TR Design Group, Inc. a contract to conceptualize (Phase A) the Clubhouse as a space that will accommodate both library services and golf operations. Since then, TR Design has made numerous site visits to the existing library and new Green Tree location. They have taken 3D photographs, observed existing programs, and interviewed staff.
Utilizing the data from their research, TR Design created a first rendering of a conceptual design of the Library at Green Tree. The first rendering was circulated to key staff and stakeholders to review and provide input. Staff met to discuss their thoughts and findings, and those were forwarded to TR Design. This process continued for two more cycles before TR Design ultimately completed a final conceptual design of the Library at Green Tree utilizing the existing building footprint (Attachment A).
The next step in the design process would have been for TR Design to proceed with Phase B upon Council approval. Phase B included $383,639.98 to generate Architectural, Civil, Structural, Landscape, Mechanical, Plumbing, and Electrical construction drawings.
It also includes preparing bid-ready plans and documents to assist with advertising the bid for construction, obtaining permits, construction administration, post-construction services, and project management. Staff was prepared to request approval from the Council to continue the design into Phase B when we were informed of the Building Forward Grant award.

Discussion:
On November 4, 2022, staff was notified that the California State Library selected the Victorville City Library to receive $9,035,105.00 in Building Forward Grant funds. Council adopted Resolution No. 23-001, approving a budget amendment for Fiscal Year 2022/2023 to appropriate $9,035,105.00 in both revenue and expenditures related to the Building Forward Library Infrastructure Program Grant as awarded by the California State Library at the January 17, 2023, Council Meeting.
Grant funds will be used for Clubhouse renovations and the base building expansion related to library services, which include up to 5,000 sq. ft. of additional library space. This will allow the City to provide between 14,000 to 16,000 sq. ft. of library space to accommodate library services based on the City’s current population level as identified in the Master Plan.
Staff has obtained a proposal from TR Design Group for the design services to include up to a 5,000 square foot expansion (Attachment B). As mentioned above, Phase B of the original scope of services has not been completed and the cost associated with Phase B (Attachment C) will be included in the consultant/professional services provider agreement. The following is a summary of the cost of services.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
City agrees to engage Consultant and Consultant agrees to furnish all necessary labor, tools, materials, equipment for and to do the Work for the Project. The Work shall be performed (i) as generally described in the Request for Proposal, Project CC22-037, and any applicable addenda, portions of which are attached hereto for ease of reference as Exhibit "A", and the entirety of which is currently on file in office of the City Clerk); and (ii) the prices set forth in Consultant’s, Phase A Proposal (attached as Exhibit "B).
16 Consultant/Professional Services Provider Agreement/TR Design Group, Inc./Project CC22-037-A
SCOPE OF SERVICES
Phase A : Conceptual re- design of the existing Green Tree Golf Course clubhouse to accommodate a City-operated library, while still also accommodating the existing pro shop and an associated bar and snack area. This initial phase will include only a floor plan concept that demonstrates how it will incorporate all current functions of the Victorville Library as well as the existing golf operation. The design should keep the following goals in mind:
1. Adequate space should be provided for all uses and programs currently accommodated at the City’s library including, but not limited to, administrative space for staff, comparable space for the Friends of the Library, processing of passports, book stack areas, computer stations, areas to conduct children’s literacy programs, etc.
2. Where possible, the design should also consider the City’s Library Master Plan and incorporate any suggested features that can be incorporated within existing spaces and up to 5,000 sq ft of expansion. Examples of this would be intelligent lockers for after -hours pickup of materials, study/meeting rooms, and the possible use of the existing outdoor patio and other outdoor areas for programs or other passive uses.
3. The pro shop area will be reconfigured to incorporate a bar with a limited food menu of mainly pre-packaged foods. Currently these two areas are segregated at the south end of the building and the new configuration should provide a more open concept where there is good flow between the pro shop and bar area.
4. Every effort should be made to accommodate the above -mentioned uses within the existing envelope of the clubhouse and up to 5,000 sq ft of expansion.
5. Structural modifications to the building should be avoided in the design where possible unless necessary to accommodate the desired layout.
Once provided, the conceptual floor plan will be subject to review by City staff, such as members of the Library and Building Department staff, and other stakeholders such as the pro shop operators who manage the existing golf operation. Feedback regarding functionality and code compliance will then be provided in a cooperative setting and revisions based on this feedback should be anticipated. Once all parties involved agree on the layout, we will move into Phase B.
Phase B: This phase will include completion of full plan package. Based on the agreed upon layout, the selected designer will then proceed with all plans necessary to secure permits and put the project out to bid. This will include the remainder of the architectural pages, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, structural (if necessary), and any other plans required to show compliance with local and state codes and obtain approval for permit issuance.

That the Honorable City Council approve a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Fenagh Engineering & Testing in an amount not to exceed $14,976.00 for construction material testing for the City’s Guardrail Project (CC23-024).
Fiscal Impact:
This action will result in a fiscal impact of $14,976.00. An additional appropriation is not required. Funds for these services are budgeted in Measure I, Fund 250, for the Guardrail Project. The material testing services will be billed on a time and material basis. The account numbers and available budget are shown in the table below.
Account Number Available Budget
2504500-55330-60129 $19,880.84
Strategic Plan Goal:
This project aligns with Goal E, Strategy 1 in the City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2020- 2023, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs.”
Background:
On December 6, 2022, City Council awarded a construction contract (CC23-024) to Danny C. Hubbs for the Guardrail Project. Capital improvement projects require quality assurance materials testing to ensure materials incorporated into the work satisfy the contract specification and special provisions. This process helps ensure the materials provided by the contractor and the quality of the work performed will meet the life expectancy of the improvement. This project will require soil inspection and material testing by a qualified geotechnical consultant. The consultant’s certified inspectors will 2 9

report on testing of soils, crushed rock bases, asphalt, concrete, and construction activities to determine if the materials provided and installed meet the requirements of the contract specifications.
Discussion:
On December 1, 2022, a Request for Qualification (RFQ) for a Geotechnical Material Consultant for the Guardrail Project was issued. The RFQ was issued using procedures in accordance with Municipal Code §2.28.280. On December 16, 2022, nine responses from geotechnical consultants were received.
Each proposal was reviewed by Engineering Department staff to determine which geotechnical consultant best met the needs of the projects and City for the services requested. Based on qualifications, staff resources, and the unit rates included in the fee schedules, staff determined that Fenagh Engineering & Testing was the best fit consultant for this project.
This agreement is being presented to Council for approval because the City has other contracts with Fenagh Engineering & Testing which cumulatively exceed the City Manager’s purchasing authority of $125,000.00 per the City’s Municipal Code §2.28.060 (e)(3)(a).
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Fenagh Engineering & Testing in an amount not to exceed $14,976.00 for Geotechnical Materials Consultant for the Guardrail Project.
Staff remains available to answer any questions the Council may have.

Item Number: 20
City Council / Board of Directors
Written Communications
Meeting of: February 7, 2023
Submitted By:
Brian Gengler, City Engineer
Subject:
Agreement with Fenagh Engineering & Testing for Material Testing - Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Project & Tawney Ridge Traffic Signal Project Recommendation:
That the Honorable City Council approve a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Fenagh Engineering & Testing in an amount not to exceed $49,992.00 for construction material testing for the Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Project and the Tawney Ridge Traffic Signal Project.
Fiscal Impact:
This action will result in a fiscal impact of $49,992.00. An additional appropriation is not required. Funds for these services are budgeted in Measure I, Fund 250, for the Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Project (Project No. 62063) and the Tawney Ridge Traffic Signal Project (Project No. 60134). The material testing services will be billed on a time and material basis. The account numbers and available budget are shown in the table below.
Account Number Available Budget
2504500-55330-62063 $35,087.42
2504500-55315-60134 $18,965.92
Total $54,053.34
Strategic Plan Goal:
This project aligns with Goal E, Strategy 1 in the City of Victorville Strategic Plan 2020- 2023, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs.”
Background:
The City Council has previously awarded construction contracts for the following projects:
2 9
3 6
•The Village Drive and Tawney Ridge Lane Traffic Signal Contract was awarded to Elecnor Belco Electric, Inc. on October 18, 2022.
•The Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Phase I Contract was awarded to LCR Earthwork & Engineering Corp. on December 6, 2022.
Capital improvement projects require quality assurance materials testing to ensure materials incorporated into the work satisfy the contract specification and special provisions. This process helps ensure the materials provided by the contractor and the quality of the work performed will meet the life expectancy of the improvements. Both capital improvement projects will require soil inspection and material testing by a qualified geotechnical consultant. The consultant’s certified inspectors will report on testing of soils, crushed rock bases, asphalt, concrete, and construction activities to determine if the materials provided and installed meet the requirements of the contract specifications.
Discussion:
On December 1, 2022, a Request for Qualification (RFQ) for a Geotechnical Material Consultant for the Old Town Sidewalk Connectivity Phase I & Tawney Ridge Lane Traffic Signal Projects was issued. The RFQ was issued using procedures in accordance with Municipal Code §2.28.280. On December 16, 2022, eight responses from geotechnical consultants were received.
Each proposal was reviewed by Engineering Department staff to determine which geotechnical consultant best met the needs of the projects and City for the services requested. Based on qualifications, staff resources, and the unit rates included in the fee schedules, staff determined that Fenagh Engineering & Testing was the best fit consultant for this project.
This agreement is being presented to Council for approval because the City has other contracts with Fenagh Engineering which cumulatively exceed the City Manager’s purchasing authority of $125,000.00 per the City’s Municipal Code §2.28.060 (e)(3)(a).
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Fenagh Engineering & Testing in an amount not to exceed $49,992.00 for Geotechnical Materials Consultant for the Guardrail Project.
Staff remains available to answer any questions the Council may have.

Subject:
Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant - Amendment No. 14 to Contract with Woodard and Curran
Recommendation:
That the Honorable City Council approve Amendment No. 14 to the contract with Woodard and Curran for the operation of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant, increasing compensation to account for sales tax and base markup fees inadvertently omitted from the additional scope approved under Amendment No. 13.
Fiscal Impact:
This action will result in a fiscal impact of $101,192.39. An additional appropriation is not required. The adjusted compensation will increase the first-year expense from $515,630.00 to $616,822.39 in Fiscal Year 2022/2023. Annual payments for years two through twelve will increase by $81,567.39, for a total of $497,197.39 per year, to be included in future fiscal year budgets. This project will be funded by Fund 412, Wastewater Treatment Facility. The budget account number and the amount available in the budget are shown below.
Account No. Amount Available
4120710-55040-76034 $ 506,500.00
Strategic Plan Goal:
This item aligns with Goal E., Strategy 1. in the Strategic Plan, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs.” Background:
On June 17, 2008, City Council approved a contract with Woodard & Curran (W&C) for the design and operation of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant (IWWTP), which 2 9
5 8
started operating in July of 2010. Amendment Nos. 1 through 12 authorized the compensation for various capital projects or extended the term of the contract.
The IWWTP treatment process uses membrane bioreactors (MBR), a method consisting of microfiltration combined with a biological process to treat wastewater. The membranes, which are hollow fibers, separate solids from the liquid that passes through the membranes. The membranes are assembled in a series of modules and combined to make an MBR unit. Wastewater flows through a number of these MBR units in four membrane trains in the IWWTP as part of the treatment process.
On May 13, 2022, City Council approved Amendment No. 13 to the contract with W&C.
This extended the term of the contract until 2034, authorized the replacement of the MBR, and resulted in W&C entering into a twelve -year service agreement with Suez, the vendor that supplies, replaces, and services the MBR. Under Amendment No. 13, the additional compensation to W&C for the twelve-year service agreement was $515,630 for the first year (Fiscal Year 2022/2023) and $415,630 per year for the subsequent eleven years.
Discussion:
For the compensation authorized by Amendment No. 13, taxes at a rate of 8.75 percent for the MBR and the W&C base markup fee of 10 percent were inadvertently omitted. In the original contract, Section C.2.01.C established the base markup fee at 10 percent.
Including the taxes and base markup fee results in an increase in compensation for the first year of $101,192.39, for a total of $616,822.39. The increase in compensation for the next eleven years would be $81,567.39 per year for a total of $497,197.39 per year.
Staff have reviewed the pricing and original contract and concluded that the additional compensation should be authorized. Amendment No. 14, which would authorize the additional compensation, has been prepared by the City Attorney’s office, reviewed by staff and W&C and is ready for approval. Amendment No. 13 and the original contract with W&C have been attached for reference.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve Amendment No. 14 to the contract with Woodard and Curran for the operation of the Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant, increasing compensation to account for sales tax and base markup fees inadvertently omitted from the additional scope approved under Amendment No. 13.
Staff is available for any questions that City Council may have.

La Mesa / Nisqualli Interchange 404 Permit Compliance Mitigation Site Coordination - Amendment No. 4 to the Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with
WSP USA
Recommendation:
That the Honorable City Council approve Amendment No. 4 to the Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with WSP USA Inc., to increase the compensation by an amount not to exceed of $54,296.00 for the La Mesa / Nisqualli Interchange Permit Compliance and Mitigation Site Coordination.
Fiscal Impact:
This action will have a fiscal impact of $54,296.00, increasing the contract not to exceed amount from $136,580.00 to $190,876.00. An additional appropriation is not necessary; sufficient funds are in the account to cover the additional expense in this fiscal year. The budget account number, account description and amount available in the budget are shown below.
Budget Account No. Account Description Amount Available 2504500-52300-60005 Measure I/Nisqualli Contract Services $72,925.58 Strategic Plan Goal:
This item aligns with Goal E., Strategy 1. in the Strategic Plan, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs.” Background:
The La Mesa Road / Nisqualli Road Interchange had ongoing environmental monitoring for three permits that were required by environmental resource agencies. The permits were required because the construction of the interchange had permanent wetland 2 9
5 9
impacts in the Oro Grande Wash which runs through the interchange limits. The permits are as follows: the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE) 404 Dredge and Fill permit; the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board 401 Water Quality Certification permit; and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) 1602 Streambed Alteration permit. The City was required to set aside and preserve 6.12 acres of land with equivalent habitat to mitigate the removal of habitat in the wash due to the interchange construction. The land was set aside on four City-owned parcels adjacent to or in the Mojave River. The parcels are located about 0.5 miles east of Shay Road and 0.2 miles north of the Shay Road / Phantom East intersection. Please refer to Attachment A, a map of the mitigation site.
The environmental permits require that the mitigation site be preserved in perpetuity as habitat area with a long-term management plan. It will be necessary to record a conservation easement over the 6.12 acres and contract with a qualified organization to maintain the site on a long-term basis. This organization will be responsible for ongoing removal of trash and invasive non-native plant species and environmental reporting to the three environmental permitting agencies.
On October 3, 2017, City Council approved a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with WSP, USA Inc., (WSP) for the La Mesa / Nisqualli Interchange Permit Compliance and Mitigation Site Coordination in an amount not to exceed of $26,960.
On June 18, 2019, City Council approved a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Rivers and Lands Conservancy (RLC) in an amount not to exceed of $28,000. RLC will be the organization that is proposed to maintain the mitigation site for a long-term basis. The scope of the agreement included preparation of a baseline report on the environmental condition of the mitigation site and creating a long-term management plan.
On April 21, 2020, City Council approved Amendment No. 1 to the agreement with WSP, in an amount not to exceed of $26,960, increasing the compensation to $57,290. The amendment was required due to additional tasks needed to comply with the requirements of the three environmental permitting agencies.
On November 3, 2020, City Council approved Amendment No. 2 to the agreement with WSP, in an amount not to exceed of $57,290, increasing the compensation to $93,921.
The amendment was required due to additional tasks needed to comply with the requirements of the three environmental permitting agencies.
On January 18, 2022, City Council approved Amendment No. 3 to the agreement with WSP, in an amount not to exceed of $42,659, increasing the compensation to $136,580.
The amendment was also required due to additional tasks needed to comply with the requirements of the three environmental permitting agencies. 2 9
5 9
Discussion:
Additional tasks need to be completed to comply with additional permit requirements from the environmental resource agencies, in particular, the USACOE and CDFW. The resource agencies required that the responsibilities for the maintenance and long-term management of the site be clearly separated. This resulted in revising documents and will require additional review time by the resource agencies, RCL and the City. In summary, the additional tasks include the following: coordinate the review and approval of the RLC agreements; coordinate the review and approval of the final version of the long-term management plan and conservation easement; assist in the close out of the environmental permits. The documents needed to complete the City’s responsibilities and to close out the environmental permits include the following: an endowment agreement with RLC; a mitigation services agreement with RLC; a final long-term management plan; and a final conservation easement. All these documents must be approved by the USACOE and CDFW before approval and execution. The estimated fee to complete these tasks is $54,296. It will be necessary to amend the agreement with WSP to increase the contract amount for these additional tasks.
Staff recommends that the Honorable City Council approve Amendment No. 4 to the Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with WSP USA Inc., to increase the compensation by an amount not to exceed of $54,296.00 for the La Mesa / Nisqualli Interchange Permit Compliance and Mitigation Site Coordination.
Staff remains available for any questions that the City Council may have.

Recommendation:
That the Honorable City Council approve Amendment No. 1 to the Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement BM20-076 with Albert A. Webb Associates in an amount not to exceed $483,039.00 for the Santa Fe Wash Sewer Realignment Project.
Fiscal Impact:
This action will result in a fiscal impact of $489,039.00. An additional appropriation is not required. There are sufficient funds in the budget to cover the planned expenses. The budget account number, account description and amount available are shown below.
Budget Account Number Account Description Amount Available 4254500-55315-77439 Santa Fe Wash Sewer Realignment $700,000.00 Strategic Plan Goal:
This item aligns with Goal E., Strategy 1 in the Strategic Plan, “Invest in Infrastructure” and “Implement the City’s Capital Improvement Program to meet community needs.” Background:
There is an existing City sewer main that runs along the west side of the BNSF Railroad from Bear Valley Rd. to north of Seneca Rd. A segment of this sewer main lies between Coad Road (the future Green Tree Boulevard alignment) and Ottawa Street to the south, all within the Santa Fe Wash which is within BNSF Railroad right-of-way. As a result, these sewer segments are very difficult to access for maintenance and are subject to erosion from stormwater flows within the Santa Fe Wash channel. Engineering staff proposed to relocate this sewer main further to the west, away from the BNSF railroad 2 9

right-of-way and the Santa Fe Wash channel. This realignment will facilitate better access for maintenance and protect the facility from potential erosion.
The ultimate goal of this sewer realignment project is to install a new 15-inch diameter sewer main and manholes parallel to the existing sewer main, approximately 20 feet to the west (outside of wash which is within the BNSF right-of-way). Since the sewer main is proposed to be relocated to the west, sewer easements will be required from adjacent properties. The existing facilities will be abandoned in place. Please refer to Attachment A, location map of the proposed sewer realignment project.
On October 6, 2020, the City Council approved a Consultant / Professional Services Provider Agreement with Albert A. Webb Associates, in an amount not to exceed of $420,000.00 for environmental, design, and right-of-way acquisition services for the Santa Fe Wash Sewer Realignment Project. Since then, preliminary work has been underway for environmental studies, the realigned sewer main, and a drainage study.
Discussion:
The original scope proposed to realign approximately 3,500-feet of the existing sewer main from approximately 350-feet south of Ottawa Street to Coad Road. During the Green Tree Boulevard Extension Project and the construction of a new bridge over the BNSF railroad right-of-way, Engineering and Public Works staff evaluated the existing sewer to the north of the newly constructed bridge and concluded that it should also be realigned outside of BNSF right-of-way. Another sewer main segment, further to the south of Ottawa Street, was evaluated; it was concluded that this segment should also be realigned away from the wash and added to the project. Likewise, realigning these segments will improve access for maintenance and reduce the risk of potential damage due to erosion.
The revised scope will extend the proposed sewer realignment approximately 1,150-feet downstream and another 350-feet upstream further south of Ottawa Street. This additional length will also require embankment slope protection facilities (i.e., rock riprap, concrete cast-in-place box culverts, etc.) along the west side of the wash to mitigate future erosion.
Additional services will be required for environmental, design, and right of way acquisition tasks. Additional environmental tasks include added technical studies, expanded technical studies due to a larger environmental footprint, an expanded CEQA analysis for the additional project specific facilities needed, and a programmatic evaluation of the possible future improvements along the extended alignment. Additional design tasks include an expanded drainage feasibility study, additional design work for the slope protection, and additional design of the added sewer main segments. Additional right of way tasks will be required due to more affected parcels. These tasks include acquiring more sewer easements, temporary construction easements and permits to enter private properties, and more coordination with BNSF to obtain a permit for construction.
The additional scope of services were not included in the consultant’s original agreement for professional services. Therefore, an amendment to the Consultant / Professional 2 9
6 7
Services Provider Agreement will be required. Albert A. Webb Associates has submitted a proposed scope and fee for the additional services listed above. The estimated fee is $483,039.00. Engineering staff have reviewed the proposal and concluded that the scope and fee are reasonable for the required additional tasks. An amendment to the to the current agreement with Albert A. Webb Associates has been prepared; please refer to Attachment B, which is Amendment No. 1.
Staff recommends that the Honorable City Council approve Amendment No. 1 to the Consultant/Professional Services Provider Agreement with Albert A. Webb Associates in an amount not to exceed of $483,039.00 for the Santa Fe Wash Sewer Realignment Project.
Staff remains available to answer any questions the Council may have.

EXHIBIT “A” SCOPE OF WORK
City has requested the scope of the project is exten ded in order to completely remove the existing sewer outside of the existing Santa Fe Wash, construction of new slope protection along portions of the westerly bank of the wash and future construction of improvements for access to the proposed sewer alignment. The future improvements might be new culverts conveying tributary flows into the main wash to construct a continuous access road to the proposed sewer alignment. The original scope proposed to re-align the existing sewer approximately 3,500 feet from a point north of Ottawa Avenue to Coad Road. The revised scope will extend the proposed sewer re-alignment approximately 1,150 feet downstream along a new alignment outside of the existing wash and 350 feet upstream along the existing wash. The City also requested Webb to design slope protection facilities along the west side of the wash to mitigate future erosion.
The additional scope will require additional right-of-way acquisition to cover the extended area, coordination for permits to enter for access to private properties during the design phase, coordination with BNSF to obtain permit for construction, an expanded drainage feasibility study, additional design work for the slope protection, additional design of the sewer main extension, additional and expanded technical studies for the environmental documentation as well as an expanded CEQA analysis for the additional project specific facilities needed and a programmatic evaluation of the possible future improvements along the extended alignment.
The following is a summary of the additional tasks:
Task 1 - Preliminary design to select an alignment within the extended alignment. Options for the upstream alignment are limited within the access road, but options for the downstream alignment could vary more and require additional analysis.
Task 2 - Right-of-Way Services for additional properties impacted by the extended alignment and permits to enter private properties during the design phase. See Appendix A for details.
Task 3 - Geotechnical Investigation scaled up for extended alignment requiring two additional borings.
Task 4 - Preparation of design plans for the extended sewer main.
Task 5 - Preparation of the Wash slope protection plans including impact on Nutro Company basin spillway, adding box culverts at lateral crossings, incorporation with newly constructed bridge, and etc. See Appendix B for details.
Task 6 - Preparation of separate bid package for the Wash slope protection.
Task 7 - Field survey to identify existing benchmarks and controls to tie City supplied aerial topography to existing ground surface to replace destroyed benchmarks used to create the City supplied aerial topography.
Task 8 – Preparation of twenty-two (22) individual Right-of-Entry exhibits for each property that adjacent to Santa Fe Wash to facilitate implementing Task 2.
Task 9 – Assist City on coordination with BNSF regarding Santa Fe Wash slope protection and sewer relocation, prepare encroachment permit application, address BNSF’s comments, one (1) meeting with BNSF staff.
Task 10 - Additional Environmental Services – Our original contract assumed WEBB would prepare a project-specific Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the sewer pipeline alignment EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
H:\2020\20-0203\Proposals, Contracts, & Change Orders\WEBB\BARS\2022-12-10 Shaw Letter RBAR.docx
which was to be located within the exiting Santa Fe wash channel. The previously approved scope of work assumed most of the proposed project was confined to this disturbed area only. Given the expansion of the study area to include additional pipeline alignment into areas of native habitat as well as the additional for potential jurisdictional waters to be impacted by the channel stabilization design added to the project, additional scope is required, as described further below, and outlined in detail in the Appendix C.
Since contract authorization, WEBB has coordinated with the engineering team on project design, environmental constraints, and initiated some of the technical study work. It is WEBB’s understanding that the project design has changed substantially. Not only has the project footprint expanded, but the approach for the environmental analysis has also changed.
WEBB understands that the City would like the project to evaluate the sewer line alignment at a project- specific level and additional land will be evaluated at a programmatic level for ultimate improvements per the Master Drainage Plan (MDP) considering that not all future facilities have been identified yet.
The budget proposed herein incorporates the effort spent to date coordinating the project constraints since authorization in 2020, changes to the project footprint, and inclusion of a programmatic analysis for ultimate MDP improvements in the CEQA document in accordance with the Revised Scope of Work Exhibit prepared on May 31, 2022, and provided below.
Lately, additional areas added to the project area will require revisions to the technical studies. Updates to the biological resources assessment and cultural resources assessment are also included in this contract amendment and outlined in detail in the attached.

PROPOSAL FOR APPRAISAL AND ACQUISITION SERVICES
SANTA FE WASH SEWER REALIGNMENT PROJECT
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING-RIGHT OF WAY
It is anticipated that 13 parcels will require permanent and temporary rights as part of the project. Title is clouded on parcel 3090-491-04 as both parties on title are deceased. This property will require a probate action to take place in order to allow any property rights to be transferred to the City. There are five parcels owned by different ownerships but the same family. Negotiations with two of the three family members were recently completed by the City on another project. The owner’s representative may not allow access during the initial studies. If access is granted, compensation will be required. All testing associated with hazardous waste should be completed prior to the acquisition process as the owner will require the removal of the hazardous waste clauses in the acquisition documentation. Access to BNSF right of way for testing should be considered. In addition, the timeline to obtain the property rights for the above stated parcels is expected to exceed the typical timeline for negotiating property rights.
There are seven parcels that will require relocation assistance services. These properties will require right of way acquisitions and have personal property located within the proposed acquisition areas.
It is assumed that no acquisitions will be required from BNSF. 6 RIGHT OF WAY SERVICES

Work Includes:
a. Revision of the design base file for slope lining alignment, considering existing constraints, and existing bank planimetric.
b. Revision of the design base file for slope lining profile to accommodate bank constraints and planimetric.
c. Amending plans to reflect the alignment/profile design change and adding annotations.
d. Plan processing and approval of revised design changes.
EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
• Additional box culverts at lateral crossings
Current design requires descending down into channel to get across tributary channels. It was indicated during the field visit on 10/05/2023 that current design limits wet weather access and is not desirable. Design needs to address wet weather maintenance access along the entire westerly bank.
Work Includes:
a. Designing RCB culverts at 3 tributary connection location b. Preparing alignment and profile for the said facilities c. Preparing plans and adding annotations and construction notes/details d. Plan processing and approval of additional tributary connections
• Including newly constructed bridge in design
It was identified during field visit that a new bridge has been constructed across the channel at the proposed reach’s downstream end. City wants to assess any impacts to grading of channel and accommodate any constraints owing to the newly constructed bridge.
Work Includes:
a. Conducting aerial topo to capture the newly constructed bridge b. Append existing topo to reflect the bridge
c. Analyze updated surface and make changes to slope protection at bridge interface d. Update plans and annotation to reflect new bridge
EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
Our original contract assumed WEBB would prepare a project-specific Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) for the sewer pipeline alignment. We assumed one round of revisions to the IS/MND per City comments. WEBB was assumed to prepare and post the Notice of Intent to Adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration (NOI) and distribute per the City’s distribution list. The NOI will be posted with the County Clerk and filed with the State Clearinghouse. It was assumed the City would publish the NOI in the newspaper of general circulation (as designated by the City).
Following the completion of the 30-day IS/MND public review period (as required by CEQA), WEBB will draft response to the relevant CEQA comments received on the project. The Final IS/MND response to comments assumed 20 unique comments that require answers other than “comment noted.” One round of revisions to the response to comments per City review was assumed. The comments and responses will be incorporated into the Final IS/MND. The Final IS/MND shall consist of: Response to Comments, Mitigation and Monitoring Reporting Program, and the Final MND with errata and appendices to be provided in electronic format. Upon City Council approval, WEBB will prepare and file the Notice of Determination (NOD) with the State Clearinghouse. The City shall file the NOD at the County Clerk and pay the required filing fees.
Our original contract included the coordination effort required to maintain open communication with City Staff and the Project Team to ensure efficient processing of the IS/MND in conjunction with the design services until the project is approved by City Council. No attendance at public meetings was included, however, if necessary, WEBB can attend at a time and materials basis above the costs included herein.
Our original contract also included technical reports for air quality/greenhouse gas emissions, biological resources, and cultural resources.
Since contract authorization, WEBB has coordinated with the engineering team on project design, environmental constraints, and initiated some of the technical study work. It is WEBB’s understanding that the project design has changed substantially. Not only has the project footprint expanded, but the approach for the environmental analysis has also changed.
WEBB understands that the City would like the project to evaluate the sewer line alignment at a project- specific level and additional land will be evaluated at a programmatic level for ultimate improvements per the Master Drainage Plan (MDP) considering that not all future facilities have been identified yet.
The budget proposed herein incorporates the effort spent coordinating the project constraints since authorization in 2020, changes to the project footprint, and inclusion of a programmatic analysis for ultimate MDP improvements in the CEQA document in accordance with the Revised Scope of Work Exhibit prepared on May 31, 2022.
The changes in scope for the technical studies is detailed below.
Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas/Energy Analysis
o No change in scope required. The programmatic portion of the project will be identified and the CEQA document will outline future analysis and procedures (in the form of mitigation) required for ultimate MDP facilities. WEBB’s contract assumed preparation of an Air Quality/Greenhouse Gas (AQ/GHG) Analysis in accordance with the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District (MDAQMD) requirements. The analysis would: 1) calculate emissions from construction and operation activities using the CalEEMod (Version 2020.4.0) program; 2) Prepare a regional significance threshold analysis; 3) Compare project-related emissions to MDAQMD GHG thresholds; and 4) analyze model results and incorporate mitigation measures, as appropriate, into the computer model. In order to complete the analysis, assumptions regarding construction timing and equipment will be required and are assumed to be provided by the City.
Task 10. Environmental
Appendix C
EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
o The CEQA document will summarize Project-related emissions, identify potential impacts from the project, and recommend mitigation measures to reduce those impacts, as appropriate; no separate technical memorandum will be included. This scope includes minor revisions from one round of City comments.
o WEBB will also calculate the energy consumption from construction activities associated with the proposed project. Calculations will be presented in tables and included under separate cover.
Biological Resource Assessment/Jurisdictional Delineation – WEBB will team with Dudek to prepare this report.
o The previously approved scope of work assumed most of the proposed project was confined to an existing roadway. Given the expansion of the study area to include additional native habitat and additional potential jurisdictional waters, additional scope is required, as described further below.
o Dudek will prepare a biological assessment report documenting biological resources present within the project site and additional steps required for protection of those resources in accordance with federal, state, and local laws. We have assumed the project site to include the proposed realignment site, and portions of the Santa Fe Wash that would be disturbed. Aerial imagery of the new study area displays potentially suitable habitat for special-status plant species, therefore a scope and cost for this work is included. o This task will be initiated with a literature review in order to identify the potential for sensitive species that are known to occur or may potentially occur in the vicinity of the site. The literature review will include the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (CDFW) California Natural Diversity Data Base , U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) Environmental Conservation Online System, and California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants . Additional information sources consulted will include Dudek’s internal geographic information system (GIS) biological resources database, and historic and current aerial photographs, as appropriate. o Following completion of the literature review, Dudek will conduct a biological survey of the project site and a 500-FT buffer (study area) in order to assess the presence or potential of occurrence for sensitive resources. Vegetation communities within the study area will be mapped on a 1:2,400-scale (1 inch=200 FT) topographic/aerial photographic map in accordance with CDFW standards. During the field surveys, a general inventory of plant and animal species detected by sight, calls, tracks, scat, or other signs will be compiled as well as a determination of potential sensitive resources that could occur within the study area. Observable sensitive resources, including perennial plants and conspicuous wildlife (i.e., birds and some reptiles), commonly accepted as regionally sensitive by the CNPS, CDFW, and USFWS, will be mapped and later digitized into a GIS format and added to the Biological Resources Map, an exhibit to be included in the final report. Additionally, a habitat assessment for potentially occurring sensitive resources that are not apparent at the time of the survey will be conducted (e.g., rare annual plants; special-status wildlife) during the field surveys. Aerial imagery of the project site displays potentially suitable habitat for burrowing owl ( Athene cunicularia ). While doubtful, should the project site demonstrate suitable habitat, focused surveys would be necessary. A scope and cost for this work is included below.
o Dudek will conduct a delineation of state and federal jurisdictional waters and wetlands within 50-FT of the proposed project study area where accessible. CDFW jurisdictional areas will be mapped to include the bank of the stream/channel and outer dripline of adjacent riparian vegetation, as set forth under Section 1602 of the California Fish and EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
Game Code. Wetland waters of the United States will be mapped in accordance with current guidelines, including the USACE’s 1987 Wetlands Delineation Manual and Regional Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Arid West Region. Non-wetland waters of the United States will be delineated based on the limits of an ordinary high-water mark and the ACOE A Field Guide to the Identification of the Ordinary High-Water Mark (OHWM) in the Arid West Region of the Western United States.
Areas regulated by the RWQCB are generally coincident with the USACE but can include features isolated from navigable waters of the United States that have evidence of surface water inundation. Additionally, riparian habitat associated with the stream channel may be subject to the jurisdiction of CDFW. Dudek assumes that the project team will provide any available electronic topographic mapping prior to the site visit, o All mapping will be conducted in the field directly onto a 1:2,400-scale (1 inch=200 FT) or finer base map with the project boundary and topographic or color aerial photograph base.
Where feasible and necessary, boundaries and data station points will be delineated using a GPS unit with sub-meter accuracy and later downloaded into GIS software. Following completion of the field work, all jurisdictional polygons and line features will be digitized using ArcGIS software, and a GIS coverage will be created. Once in ArcGIS, the acreage of each jurisdictional area will be determined.
o Based on a review of aerial imagery, the proposed project contains five dry features that will need to be delineated. Dudek assumes that a OHWM form will be needed for each drainage feature, varying by feature complexity. For the purposes of this assessment and based on aerial imagery, it is assumed that the delineation can be completed concurrently with the habitat assessment and that up to 6 OHWM field forms may be required to support the delineation. Based on a review of aerial imagery, the proposed project does not appear to support riparian vegetation or potential wetlands so no Wetland Determination Forms are proposed as a part of this scope.
o The results of the jurisdictional delineation will be summarized in a stand-alone letter report that will be sufficient to meet agency permitting requirements. The report will incorporate the results of the field survey, including a discussion of the survey methodology, limitations, and results. Graphics will be prepared to illustrate the location of the site and the existing conditions of jurisdictional resources. One electronic copy of the Final Jurisdictional Delineation Letter Report incorporating one round of team comments. o Following completion of the field survey, a biological assessment report will be prepared to support the CEQA document. The report will include a discussion of the survey methodology according to the appropriate protocol and adequacy of the survey. Vegetation communities and special-status biological resources will be described in terms of their regional significance and presence on site. All biological resources observed or with potential to occur on site with any reasonable potential to constrain the project, will be addressed in the report. Also included in the report will be an assessment of existing conditions, an impacts analysis, and an assessment of the significance of impacts in accordance with CEQA and other applicable county, state, and federal laws. Dudek will recommend specific avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures for impacts identified that will reduce impacts to a level below significance, if possible. Proposed mitigation requirements for potential impacts to sensitive or special-status resources will be discussed in terms of regional planning, and city, state, and federal laws and guidelines to comply with all existing biological resource laws, regulations, and court precedent.
Graphics will be prepared to illustrate the location of the site, the existing biological conditions, and the proposed project impacts.
One electronic copy of the Final Biological
Resources Report incorporating two round of team comments is included.
EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
o As stated above, Dudek will first conduct a habitat assessment for burrowing owl. If the habitat assessment yields suitable habitat, a focused burrow survey and four focused burrowing owl surveys will be conducted in accordance with the Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation (CDFW 2012). For the burrow survey, a qualified biologist will walk uniform transects throughout the project site and a 500-FT buffer of the site (where access is authorized) and document any potential burrowing owl habitat on site (i.e., relatively open habitat with low gradients and burrow resources [i.e., burrows or manmade structures 4- inches or greater in diameter]) with a GPS unit.
o For the focused surveys, surveys will be conducted by a qualified biologist within all areas where suitable burrowing owl habitat was identified during the burrow survey. Focused surveys for burrowing owl consist of site visits on four separate days conducted during the breeding season (March 1 – August 31). If it is too late in the season to complete this survey and remain within protocol, a modified survey can be completed in order to inform the CEQA document and provide mitigation requirements. We have assumed for this scope and cost that 100% of the site will require an initial review and then only 25% of the site would support suitable burrows requiring additional follow up surveys. Due to the developed nature of the buffer and the linear aspect of the project, we assume a maximum of five miles of transects will be required. Four survey passes are expected to take eight person days. The final Burrowing Owl Report will include the methodology, results of the survey, site photographs, and a map depicting the location of all suitable burrows, burrowing owl sign, occupied burrows, and/or burrowing owls observed. o As a part of habitat assessment, Dudek will review the physical characteristics of the project areas (including biogeography, elevation, soils, etc.) and records from the California Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB) and the California Native Plant Society (CNPS) Inventory of Rare and Endangered Plants of California to compile a list of species with potential to occur on site, referred to as “target species.” This list includes special-status plants (listed species and California Rare Plant Rank [CRPR] 1 or 2 species) with potential to occur that have been recorded within the on-site U.S. Geological Survey quadrangles and the surrounding nine quadrangles.
o Dudek’s preliminary analysis identified eight target special-status species (white-bracted spineflower, desert cymopterus, Mojave monkeyflower, Booth's evening-primrose, Parish's daisy, short-joint beavertail, Beaver Dam breadroot, and Western Joshua tree). o The target species will be grouped based on their blooming period to determine which groups of plants could be observed at the same time. Botanical survey schedules vary depending on weather patterns during the prior year and will be finalized based on reference population verification, discussed below. Given the typical blooming periods of these species, it is assumed that all potential target species could be surveyed for in one pass in May.
o In reviewing the existing data, Dudek assumes that approximately 60 acres of potential habitat for special-status species will need to be surveyed. Typically, 30 acres of habitat can be surveyed by one biologist in one day. Therefore, for purposes of preparing a cost estimate, Dudek assumes that suitable habitat for special-status plant species can be surveyed in 2 person-days.
o Plant species bloom at slightly different times each year depending on temperature, rainfall patterns, elevation, and other environmental factors. Reference population checks involve locating known populations of special-status plant species during a time frame when they are known to be blooming or exhibit other phenological characteristics that allow for species identification. Observations of reference populations during peak phenology provide assurance to the lead agencies and resource agencies that these species would EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
be identifiable if they are present in areas proposed for ground disturbance. The focus of the reference plant population check will be on species that are state and federally threatened, endangered, or candidate for listing; one person-day will be allotted to this task. o Focused special-status plant surveys will conform to the CNPS Botanical Survey Guidelines (CNPS 2001); Protocols for Surveying and Evaluating Impacts to Special Status Native Plant Populations and Sensitive Natural Communities (CDFW 2018); and the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service’s General Rare Plant Survey Guidelines (Cypher 2002). All plant species encountered during the field surveys will be identified to subspecies or variety, if applicable, to determine sensitivity status. If target species are encountered, field personnel will record data points demarcating the edge of the polygon and assess population numbers using the Esri ArcGIS mobile application. o The final results of the focused special-status plant surveys will be prepared in a survey report and will include the methodology, results of the survey, site photographs, and a map depicting the location of any special-status species detections. One electronic version of the final Rare Plant Report (revised based upon one round of comments).
Cultural Resource Assessment – WEBB will team with Dudek to prepare this report. o This task was included in our original contract; however, the scope of work for the cultural resources inventory herein has been updated to match the current understanding.
Inventory will comply with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) due to permit requirements including a US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) permit.
Coordination with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad will not be required.
It is not anticipated Federal Rail Authority (FRA) involvement or review of the Section 106 compliance documentation. All cultural resources staff qualify under the Secretary of Interior’s professional standards for their respective subdisciplines, and methods to accomplish work exceed SOI standards.
o A cultural resources inventory to determine whether any cultural resources exist within or adjacent to the project area that may be impacted by the proposed development is required. To complete the study, an Area of Potential Effects (APE) map will be developed, a records search completed, initiation of tribal correspondence, completion of a pedestrian survey, and document the study results.
o The study will be initiated by developing an Area of Potential Effects (APE) map and description. Coordination with USACE, presumed to be the lead agency for Section 106 compliance, will be necessary to determine the APE for considering effects to historic properties (as that term is defined under Section 106). o The APE map will be utilized as the basis for initiating a records search at the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) for a one mile radius around the APE. The purpose of the records search is to identify any previously recorded cultural resources that may be located within the project area. In addition to a review of previously prepared site records and reports, the records search will also review historical maps and aerials of the project area, ethnographies, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), the California Historic Property Data File, and the lists of California State Historical Landmarks, the Built Environment Resource Directory (BERD), California Points of Historical Interest, and Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility. Please note that due to COVID-19, the SCCIC has been experiencing significant delays in records search turn-around.
o Upon specific authorization by the City, Dudek will initiate correspondence with the California Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC), including one round of EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
correspondence with Native American contacts via certified mail, assumed direct costs not to exceed $200. It is assumed that the City, as the CEQA lead agency, will handle all formal tribal consultation including AB52 correspondence. Upon request, the USACE may be assisted in their Section 106 tribal consultation obligations at no extra cost, assuming no in-person meetings are required and no more than one round of correspondence with tribes for Section 106 purposes will be required.
o Following archival research and coordination, an intensive pedestrian survey of the entire APE will be conducted. It is assumed no Native American is required during the pedestrian survey and that the property will be accessible, and that no archaeological sites will be identified requiring formal recordation. Field personnel will also photograph the proximity of all built structures near to and within the APE.
For the purposes of this study Dudek
assumes that any of the structures present within the revised APE will be subject to review under a separate Built Environment Inventory Report.
o The results of this study will be documented in a report appropriately scaled to the information obtained during archival research and the pedestrian survey. Since it is assumed no resources will be identified, we assume a letter report with appropriate information, maps and appendices will suffice. Should resources be identified that require formal documentation, we will work with you to augment this scope to allow for a full technical report that includes a research context and design. Direct costs for the records search are anticipated to be no more than $1,000.
Built Environment Inventory and Evaluation Report – WEBB will team with Dudek to prepare this report.
o This task was not included in our original contract. Dudek understands that this project will require permitting from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and will require a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review, including permits and authorizations, which are considered federal undertakings regulated under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. As such, Dudek understands that Built Environment Inventory and Evaluation Report (technical report) will need to be prepared in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) (Section 106), California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and local guidelines if applicable. The technical report will include an assessment of potential adverse effects to historic properties (if any) under Section 106 and consider potential impacts to historical resources under CEQA. In addition, consultation with the California State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) will be required to complete the Section 106 process. Dudek’s project understanding is that the Santa Fe Sewer line will be realigned immediately west of the extant sewer line. This realignment will route the Santa Fe Sewer through several private properties, which meet the 45-year age threshold for historic resource evaluation under CEQA. We assume that coordination with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad will not be required, and that the proposed improvements will not encroach the right of way. We further assume that there is no Federal Rail Authority (FRA) involvement or review of the Section 106 compliance documentation. Because the proposed sewer realignment location crosses several properties which contain buildings over 45 years in age, Dudek proposes to evaluate these properties under the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), and local criteria for City of Victorville.
All of Dudek’s Built Environment staff qualify under the Secretary of Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards for Architectural History.
o Upon receipt of all proposed project plans, Dudek will develop the project’s Area of EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
Potential Effects (APE) map for built environment resources. The APE will encompass all geographic areas in which the proposed project has the potential to directly or indirectly affect the character or use of historic properties (36 CFR 800.16[d]). In addition to areas where construction activities are expected to occur, the APE map will consider construction staging areas, temporary construction easements, utility relocation, and any other activity that has the potential to affect historic properties. The built environment APE will be limited to three parcels: 13685 Coad Road (Assessor’s Parcel Number [APN] 3090-491-04-0000, 17481 Coad Road (APN 3090-491-05-0000), and 17384 Terra Linda Drive (APN 3090- 531-01-0000). No more than three 3 versions of the APE will be produced. o Dudek Built Environment Staff will begin by reviewing the results of a California Historical Resources Information Systems records search of the project site conducted in conjunction with the archaeology tasks for this project. The purpose of the records search is to identify any previously recorded cultural resources that may be located within the project area. In addition to a review of previously prepared site records and reports, the records search will also review historical maps of the project area; ethnographies; the National Register of Historic Places; the California Register of Historical Resources; the California Historic Property Data File; and the lists of California State Historical Landmarks, California Points of Historical Interest, and Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility. o Additionally, under this task, Dudek will coordinate with local historical societies, advocacy groups/stakeholders who may have information on the subject property and its history. This coordination will include limited outreach via emails and phone calls concerning the property and its historical associations. No follow-up phone calls or in-person meetings are included in this task.
o Upon completion of the records search, Dudek will survey the project’s APE for historic built environment resources. The built environment survey will entail taking detailed notes and photographs of properties over 45 years old which intersect the proposed sewer realignment. Dudek has determined there are at least three (3) properties intersecting the proposed realignment which contain buildings that are over 45 years in age and will require recordation and evaluation for historical significance in order to determine if the proposed project has the potential to impact historical resources, as defined by CEQA and historic properties under Section 106 of the NHPA. A cursory review of San Bernardino County Assessor records and historical aerial photographs indicate that the historic-age properties which intersect the proposed sewer realignment date between 1943 and 1952. A qualified architectural historian will survey the property to document any character defining features, spatial relationships, alterations, and the overall existing conditions of the property. The survey will be restricted to the exterior of the buildings and grounds. If safe access to the properties cannot provided, survey will be limited to the public right-of-way. Should any additional resources be identified requiring recordation and evaluation because of survey results a budget augment may be required to address the resources. o Dudek assumes no more than three (3) properties in the proposed realignment area, extended environmental clearance area, and additional proposed sewer realignment areas, are over 45 years old and will require recordation and evaluation for historical significance in order to determine if the proposed project has the potential to impact historical resources, as defined by CEQA and historic properties under Section 106 of the NHPA. These properties include:
13685 Coad Road, APN 3090-491-04-0000 (constructed 1947), 17481 Coad Road, APN 3090-491-05-0000 (constructed 1943), and 17384 Terra Linda Drive, APN 3090-531-01-0000 (constructed 1952). o Each property will be recorded on State of California Department of Parks and Recreation EXHIBIT A, AMENDMENT 1, PROJECT BM20-076
Series 523 Forms (DPR forms), and will be evaluated in consideration of NRHP, CRHR, and applicable local designation criteria and integrity requirements by an architectural historian who meets the Secretary of the Interior’s Professional Qualification Standards.
As part of this task, Dudek will conduct building development research to understand the construction history of each property and retrieve information on any previous owners/occupants. Dudek will also conduct archival research to develop the appropriate historic context for the property significance evaluation. This may include contacting local libraries, archives, and relevant historical societies. Access is presently limited to many public and private facilities due to restrictions related to Covid-19. Dudek will make a good faith effort to access all relevant historic records via online procedures, email, and telephone calls if in-person access is not granted.
o Dudek will prepare a Built Environment Inventory and Evaluation Report that will summarize the results of the survey, research, and property significance evaluations. The technical report will discuss the proposed project description, regulatory framework, all sources consulted, and recommendations for appropriate management. The technical report will also analyze the proposed project’s potential to impact historic built environment resources under CEQA and historic properties under Section 106 of the NHPA. All DPR forms will be included as an appendix to the technical report. We assume no more than two drafts and one final version of the technical report will be required. Dudek assumes no more than 1, 1-hour long conference call with USACE and SHPO staff to discuss technical report findings. A separate scope and cost can be prepared upon request should development or implementation of mitigation be necessary.
Three drafts and one final
version of the technical report are included to respond to incorporate comment from the team, USACE, and SHPO.
Assumptions Used in the Preparation of the Environme ntal Scope of Services WEBB’s scope of services is based on the following assumptions:
A Mitigation Negative Declaration is the appropriate level of CEQA documentation. The topographic mapping, site plan and limit of project impacts will be provided in AutoCad or GIS shapefiles prior to kick-off of the environmental services and no major revisions will be made once the technical studies are underway.
A project description will be circulated for City review and approval prior to initiation of CEQA impact analysis.
We assumed one round of revisions to the Draft IS/MND and Final IS/MND per City comments. The City would publish the NOI in the newspaper of general circulation (as designated by the City). The City shall file the NOD at the County Clerk and pay the required filing fees. No attendance at public meetings was included,
Coordination with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad will not be required. It is not anticipated Federal Rail Authority (FRA) involvement or review of the Section 106 compliance documentation.
No archeological resources will require formal recordation and no more than three (3) properties over 45 years old will require recordation and evaluation for historical significance. Additional rounds of revision to each technical report identified above are excluded, The City will prepare Staff Report, Resolution and/or Findings if required.
A “round” of comments refers to a group of comments from all City departments, including the City Attorney and any other entities identified by the City at project kick-off received at the same time. (If additional rounds of comments are received, i.e., received at different times, additional comments not included in the initial round, or changes from the initial round of comments, additional budget may be required.)

City Council Policy and Procedures Manual Chapter 9, Section 1B, states:
“On or before December 31st of each year, the City Clerk (or such other staff as the Council may designate) shall prepare and provide to the City Council an appointments list of all regular and ongoing commissions, committees, and boards appointed by the Council and the terms of the members of such boards, committees, and commissions that will expire during the next calendar year as required by Government Code Section 54970 et seq., also known as the Maddy Act. City Council Resolution No. 13-049 identifies that the normal term of each regular committee member shall be four years, more or less, and shall be coterminous with the term of office of the nominating Councilmember. As such, in years when a City Council election takes place, all seats on commissions, committees, and 2 9
6 2
boards for newly elected Councilmembers will be open for nomination and appointment. In years when there is no City Council election, only those seats that are unfilled will be open for nomination and appointment. Such nominations must be confirmed by a majority vote of the full membership of the City Council in order for an appointment to occur. The Presiding Officer shall facilitate appointments in accordance with nomination and appointment procedure set forth in Chapter 2, points 1-6. To the extent a Councilmember’s nominee for a specific commission, committee, or board does not obtain the requisite affirmative votes, such Councilmember will be given the opportunity to nominate up to three (3) other individuals, either at the same meeting or at subsequent meetings. In the event a Councilmember’s subsequent three (3) nominees are not confirmed by a majority vote of the Council, then the City Council shall appoint a commission, committee, or board member using the same procedures set forth herein. Unscheduled vacancies shall be filled in accordance with Government Code Section 54974. Such unscheduled vacancy appointments shall be coterminous with the appointing Councilmember’s term of office as provided for in City Council Resolution No. 13-049.” At the Regular City Council meeting of December 20, 2022, the City Council completed appointments to the Planning Commission, Community Revitalization Investment Authority (CRIA) Board, Audit and Community Planning and Development (CPD) Committees. Council Member Harriman and Mayor Jones still need to make appointments to the Community Services Advisory Committee. As such, Council Member Harriman and Mayor Jones have submitted documentation for their nominees for the Community Services Advisory Committee (CSAC), so this item is being presented to the City Council for consideration. Council Member Harriman’s nominee’s resume is attached as “Attachment A”, and Mayor Jones’ nominee’s resume is attached as “Attachment B.” The Community Services Advisory Committee (CSAC) meets on the third Monday of each month at 5:00 p.m. to discuss and provide input on topics related to community programs and services, recreation activities and events, as well as park facility development. In order to further the appointment process started in December 2022, staff recommends the City Council consider the appointment submitted by Council Member Harriman and the re-appoint submitted by Mayor Jones.
