ITEM #: F.5
SUBJECT: Final Acceptance and Notice of Completion for the Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement
Project, CIP 20-06.
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, (1) Authorizing a $42,552.48 increase to the construction contract contingency, bringing the total contract contingency to $447,150.48; (2) Appropriating $65,000 of Spring Lake Infrastructure Storm Drainage Funds to the Project, bringing the total Project budget to $4,050,000; and (3) Accepting the construction contract for the Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement Project, CIP 20-06, with T&S Construction Co., Inc., as complete and authorizing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.

Fiscal Impact:
The authorized contract amount for the Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement Project, CIP 20-06, (the “Project”) with T&S Construction Co., Inc., (“T&S”) is $2,697,320 with an approved contingency amount of $404,598. To date, four change orders have been executed in a total amount of $200,786.71. A final change order is currently proposed in the amount of $246,363.77 which results in a total change order amount of $447,150.48. This total amount exceeds the authorized contingency by $42,552.48; thus, Staff is requesting a $42,552.48 increase to the construction contract contingency to cover the final change order and close out the contract.
The Project is included in the Capital Improvement Program which was approved by the City Council on June 20, 2023, with an authorized total budget of $3,985,000. Current Project funding is split between Storm Drain Enterprise Funds ($3,485,000), Sewer Enterprise Funds ($200,000) and Storm Drain Development Funds ($300,000). In order to cover the final construction cost and close out the Project, Staff is requesting an appropriation of $65,000 of Spring Lake Infrastructure Storm Drainage Funds (Fund Code 681) to CIP 20-06. This appropriation will bring the total Project budget to $4,050,000.
The City of Woodland and County of Yolo prepared a cost sharing methodology based on their respective capacity share of the storm water culverts and together entered into Agreement No. 22-65 on April 12, 2022, to allocate eligible Project costs at a 74% City responsibility and 26% County responsibility. These eligible costs cover permitting, design, geotechnical investigation, environmental and cultural monitoring, construction inspection, construction contract, construction contingency and Project management.
Background:
The entirety of the City’s storm drainage and a portion of the County’s outlets to the Yolo Bypass through the City’s Outfall Channel and culverts through the Yolo Bypass West Levee (YBWL). The former outlet culverts were originally constructed around 1971, had been replaced around 2002, and consisted of three 48-inch diameter corrugated metal pipes with flap gates on the discharge ends. Storm drainage flows have increased significantly since their original installation in 1971 due to development within the City and an updated understanding of regional hydrology and, as a result,
additional capacity was needed through the culverts crossing the YBWL. Furthermore, the former culverts did not meet current engineering standards for pipe penetrations through levees protecting urban areas and had corroded, actually forming a sinkhole in the YBWL.
Staff started design in 2020 to scope replacement of the former culverts and restoration of the YBWL. Permits to design and construct the replacement project were required from various local, State and Federal agencies. After a CEQA document was prepared and the City Council adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration for Project impacts in August of 2021, Staff applied for the various permits from the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the California Central Valley Flood Protection Board (CVFPB), the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), the California Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board (CVRWQCB), and the Yolo Habitat Conservation Plan/ Natural Community Conservation Plan (Yolo HCP/NCCP) to authorize the Project. Permission for a geotechnical investigatory boring to determine existing YBWL composition was released on September 22, 2022, and the drilling was performed as soon as possible on October 31, 2022. Subsequent to further agency review of the geotechnical investigation results, permission to construct the Project was released on March 29, 2023, and Project construction began on May 15, 2023, in accordance with Federal and State Permit conditions.
The former corroded and failing metal culverts were replaced with a four-cell, cast-in-place concrete box culvert equipped with flap gates on the discharge ends and positive closure slide gates inside the YBWL. The sinkhole was restored and the banks of the Outfall Channel and YBWL were armored with rock slope protection per Federal and State standards. Construction was substantially complete at the end of October and embankment restoration and native seeding were completed on November 15, 2023. Staff closed out permits for the Project in December 2023.
Discussion:
T&S was awarded the construction contract in 2022 while Permit acquisition was ongoing; however, the permit acquisition process took significantly longer than anticipated. As a result, the Project’s geotechnical investigation was delayed from 2021 to late 2022 and consequently the construction window was delayed from the summer of 2022 to the summer of 2023. Four change orders have been executed to date for a total amount of $200,786.71. One final change order remains to be executed for an amount of $246,363.77, which would bring the total contract change order amount to $447,150.48.
The primary reasons for Project change orders were scope changes and delays related to the various permits required for the work. Of the scope changes, the most notable one arose from results of the geotechnical investigation that tested and catalogued the in-place YBWL material in late 2022. Laboratory plasticity index tests performed on the sampled material indicated that the underlying levee soils consisted of fat clay with high expansion potential. Where current specifications for levees protecting urban areas require embankment fill material to have plasticity indices less than or equal to 25 (material that is termed as lean clay), test results for the in-situ material had a plasticity index above 40. Thus, the existing YBWL embankment material within the Project excavation was deemed as unsuitable for levees protecting urban areas. This material was required to be removed from the Project site and new material suitable for levee construction was required to be imported for embankment restoration. Also among the scope changes required by permitting agency review were widened excavation limits in order to remove a larger portion of one of the three former culverts, widened borrow site excavation limits to source the requisite additional embankment fill material, and addition of a landside seepage filter to relieve internal pressures of the YBWL were it to become saturated with flood water.
Change Order No. 1 and a portion of No. 5 account for scope changes as a result of agency permit conditions. Change Order No.’s 2 and 4 account for the one year of price escalations and contract
extension from the originally intended construction season (Summer 2022) to the authorized construction season (Summer 2023). The remaining portion of Change Order No. 5 accounts for additional work and bid item overruns or underruns as directed by the City and as measured at the end of construction.
Change Order No. 3 was not related to scope changes or delays and instead accounts for T&S’ costs related to an unforeseen flooding of the construction site in July 2023. On Sunday, July 9th, the Project narrowly avoided catastrophic damage from flooding due to a quick response from T&S and City Staff, as well as by luck that the flood occurred during a float week when construction was ahead of schedule. Flooding of the site was a result of unanticipated flows being rerouted into the City’s Outfall Channel, overwhelming the Project bypass pumps and cofferdam systems and eroding portions of the Outfall Channel. The City has submitted a claim for $72,105 to cover the direct costs of the flooding event and is currently in negotiations with the district who was responsible for the flooding. Reimbursement from the responsible party will be refunded to the applicable project funding source. However, costs borne by T&S were reimbursed in order to keep the Project on track for completion within the permitted construction window.
The total change order amount of $447,150.48 is above the originally authorized construction contingency. Staff is requesting a $42,552.48 increase to the authorized construction contingency and a corresponding increase of $65,000 to the Project budget to cover final Staff time, permitting, design, geotechnical investigation, environmental and cultural monitoring, construction inspection, construction contract, construction contingency and Project management costs. Final Project costs are enumerated in the table below:
Permit Acquisition and Design Contract $ 457,020
Permitting Fees $ 46,556
Environmental and Cultural Monitoring Contracts $ 159,882 Geotechnical Investigation Contract $ 15,200
Construction Inspection and Quality Assurance Contract $ 122,000 Construction Contract $ 2,697,320
Construction Contract Change Orders (Construction Contingency) $ 447,151 Project Management and Staff Time $ 100,250
Total Project Cost $ 4,045,379
Currently Authorized Project Budget $ 3,985,000
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, (1) Authorizing a $42,552.48 increase to the construction contract contingency, bringing the total contract contingency to $447,150.48; (2) Appropriating $65,000 of Spring Lake Infrastructure Storm Drainage Funds to the Project, bringing the total Project budget to $4,050,000; and (3) Accepting the construction contract for the Yolo Bypass West Levee Culvert Replacement Project, CIP 20-06, with T&S Construction Co., Inc., as complete and authorizing the City Clerk to file a Notice of Completion.

ITEM #: F.6
SUBJECT: Annual Transportation Development Act Claim with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the filing of the annual Transportation Development Act Claim with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments.
Staff Contact:
Kim McKinney, Administrative Services Director, (530) 661-5849, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
The Transportation Development Act (TDA) claim includes allocated funding from FY2022/23 and FY2023/24. The annual claim totals $4,352,470 and includes $129,575 in planning funds that is technically allocated to the City, but is retained by SACOG for administrative purposes.
Of the funding claimed, just over 60% of the funds ($2,544,134) are paid to Yolo Transportation District (YoloTD) for Woodland's share of their annual operating budget. The remaining amounts of the claim include $16,500 to cover insurance costs for the Community Care Car program, and $1,662,261 to partially offset budgeted expenses for the citywide street maintenance programming.
Background:
Each year, the City of Woodland receives an apportionment of funds under the State Transportation Development Act (TDA) for support of public transportation services. TDA funds are broken down into two types of funding. The first is Local Transportation Funding (LTF), which includes deposited revenues from 1/4 percent of the sales tax collected on all retail sales in the County. The Countywide LTF is apportioned to the local jurisdictions annually based on population. The second source of funds is an appropriation by the State to the State Transit Assistance (STA) account, and is funded though a portion of the sales tax on diesel fuel. These funds are administered by the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG).
Discussion:
By law, the first priority for the use of Woodland’s LTF allocation is for transit needs. These transit requirements are handled by YoloTD, which submits its annual budget to the City for payment. Any remaining dollars not used by YoloTD are available for use in the City's street maintenance programs. STA allocations have not historically been a consistent source of funds available to the City. Allocation of STA was previously required to be spent only on transit capital needs; no amounts were permitted for administration or street maintenance. Due to the fuel tax swap enacted by the state in March 2010, this restriction has been temporarily lifted, and STA funds are allowed to be used for operations.
YoloTD's budget has continued to increase each year. YoloTD has had access to one-time federal funds over the last few years to help offset these increases as well as reduced fare revenue due to the decline in ridership. Most of the additions made to the budget are ongoing in nature and will not cease when the federal funding is depleted. As a result, the annual allocation of the already limited TDA funding will be needed to support YoloTD's budget, leaving little funding available to assist with
the City's costs for street maintenance.
The City’s transportation funding relies on revenues from TDA discussed herein, as well as from gas tax revenues allocated by the State. Both of these revenue sources have been declining. The transportation funding plan has long assumed some level of reduction in available TDA funding, and to assist with the shortfall, the Measure F (local 1/2 cent sales taxes) spending plan includes an annual contribution to the street maintenance programs of $750,000. Based on more recent budget projections provided by YoloTD, the anticipated increase in their budget coupled with the loss of one- time funding used to implement and pay for ongoing costs, the decline in TDA funds available for City use has accelerated. Continuation of the City's street maintenance programs will need to rely even more heavily on Measure F to manage this accelerated decline of funding. Staff and the Council representatives to the YoloTD Board (Stallard and Vega) have requested the District consider operational adjustments that would minimize the reliance on additional TDA funds to supplement their operational budget. These discussions are ongoing and will be informed, in part, by the budgetary implications of the planned relocation of the transit center to Downtown.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the filing of the annual Transportation Development Act Claim with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments.

ITEM #: F.7
SUBJECT: Award Contract to Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. for Battery Powered Extrication Tools and
Related Equipment
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the purchase agreement with Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. with a total to not exceed amount of $143,422.68 for the purchase of battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.
Staff Contact:
Eric Zane, Fire Chief - (530) 661-5861, [email protected]
Fiscal Impact:
This purchase is being funded by an Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) award, which reimburses 90% of costs, requiring a 10% recipient match. The Woodland Fire Department will be responsible for the initial purchase of $143,422.68. Of this, 90% will be reimbursed by FEMA and the Woodland Fire Department will match 10% as required by FEMA. The Woodland Fire Department’s share of this match shall not exceed $14,000. The total FEMA approved budget for this project is $149,646.48, of which $136,042.25 is Federal funding and $13,604.23 is the required 10% match. The required matching funds ($14,000) were allocated as one-time funding from Measure F during the FY2023/24 budget development process.
Background:
In February 2023, the Woodland Fire Department submitted an AFG application for battery powered extrication tools and related equipment to replace aging, gas powered equipment. Extrication tools are used by emergency responders to create greater access to persons trapped within vehicles by spreading or removing areas of damaged vehicle from around them.
In August 2023, the Woodland Fire Department was awarded a grant in the amount of $149,646.48 to purchase two sets of battery powered extrication tool and related equipment. This contract is for the purchase of the awarded equipment.
Discussion:
The Fire Department has some existing battery powered rescue equipment, which necessitated the purchase of the same brand (Holmatro Rescue Tools) for the new equipment in order to maintain operational compatibility. The Fire Department received a quote for the battery powered extrication equipment from Western Extrication Specialists Inc., the regional distributor of Holmatro Rescue Tools, for the amount of $143,422.68.
Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. is a member of the National Purchasing Partners Government (NPPGov) program. NPPGov is a national cooperative procurement organization offering publicly solicited contracts to government entities nationwide. With Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. membership in the NPPGov system, the bidding requirement is fulfilled, and the Woodland Fire Department is guaranteed to receive the lowest possible price for the extrication equipment.
Conclusion:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, authorizing the City Manager to execute the purchase agreement with Western Extrication Specialists, Inc. with a total to not exceed amount of $143,422.68 for the purchase of battery powered extrication tools and related equipment.

Fiscal Impact
On April 6, 2021, the City Council approved a 3-year contract with Advance Peace for partial implementation of the Peacemaker Fellowship effective May 1, 2021, for $200,000/year. RISE, Inc. has provided a 20% match of City funds totaling $40,000 annually. In FY22, the City capitalized on an opportunity to secure additional match funding in the amount of $400,000 to expand the Advance Peace program for two years. The City has successfully secured this supplemental funding of $400,000 for another two fiscal years (FY24 and FY25). There is no additional fiscal impact with this contract amendment.
Background
The City Manager’s Office and the Police Department actively evaluate strategies to address gun violence in the community. In 2019, Police Chief Derrek Kaff initiated contact with representatives from Advance Peace, a non-profit organization based in Richmond, California. Advance Peace, through its Peacemaker Fellowship strategy, works to interrupt gun violence in urban neighborhoods by providing transformational opportunities for young adults identified as most likely to be perpetrators and/or victims of gun violence. By working with and supporting a targeted group of individuals at the core of gun hostilities, Advance Peace bridges the gap between anti-violence programming and a hard-to-reach population at the center of violence in urban areas.
The cities of Richmond, Stockton, and Fresno, as well as many others across the country, have partnered with Advance Peace to develop and implement this model. Initial assessments have shown positive outcomes in each community. Woodland has seen similar positive outcomes with the implementation of this approach.
In FY22, the City capitalized on an opportunity to secure additional funding to expand the Advance Peace program. The Police Department submitted a proposal to the Yolo County Community Corrections Partnership (CCP) for $200,000 per year for two years. This additional funding has allowed for the expansion of the current program to include the following:
• Additional personnel: full-time Field Coordinator and part-time assistance from an Employment Specialist Case Manager, Mental Health Clinician and Administrative Specialist
• Operating costs would increase commensurate with the increase in staff, objectives and goals
Earlier this fiscal year, the City successfully secured a renewal of this CCP supplemental funding for $400,000 over two fiscal years: $200,000 for FY24 and $200,000 for FY25.
The City’s partnership with Advance Peace and the Yolo County Community Corrections Partnership is in support of the City Council’s goal of ensuring Woodland is a safe and resilient community through delivery of high quality public services and infrastructure that ensures the protection of our community from risk or harm.
Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution No. _____, (1) authorizing the City Manager to execute an amendment to the existing 3-year contract with Advance Peace for expanded services for FY24 and FY25 with supplemental funding for $400,000 from the Yolo County Community Corrections Partnership, and (2) authorizing the City Manager to appropriate $200,000 annually for FY24 and FY25 in Fund 1102.

TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA: City Council Regular Meeting
DATE: March 5, 2024
ITEM #: G.9
SUBJECT: Updated City Council Priority Goals and Strategic Plan
Recommendation for Action: Staff recommends that the City Council review and affirm its Updated Priority Goals and Strategic Plan
Fiscal Impact:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with this recommendation. To the extent that identified priority projects and initiatives require resources beyond those currently appropriated, staff will return to Council for subsequent action related to funding allocations, as necessary.
Background:
City Council goals and priorities are important in several respects. First, the goals set by the Council continue to be the basis for assessing progress made in addressing the most important issues facing our community. Additionally, clearly articulated Council priorities help direct the City's limited resources towards those initiatives and programs that contribute most directly to the outcomes envisioned in advancing city priorities.
Consensus and discussion of community priorities, alignment of resources, and key areas of focus among Council Members, City staff, advisory bodies, and community members fuels progress towards these goals. To this end, the City Council held a public Study Session on February 24, 2024, to review and establish its Priority Goals and Strategic Actions for the next calendar year. Staff presented updated data dashboards to assist in measuring progress in each of the goal areas.
