11 No Services under this Agreement shall commence until Contractor has provided City with original endorsements effecting coverage set forth in this Article 5. Such endorsements shall be signed by an authorized representative of the insurance company and shall include the signator’s company affiliation and title. Should it be deemed necessary by City, it shall be Contractor’s responsibility to see that City receives documentation, acceptable to City, which sustains that the individual signing said endorsements is indeed authorized to do so by the insurance company. Current Evidence of Coverage must be provided for the entire required period of insurance. City reserves the right to inspect complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Upon written request, certified copies of required insurance policies must be provided within thirty (30) days. Any failure to comply with the reporting or other provisions of the policies including breaches or warranties shall not affect coverage provided to City.

If the Contractor fails to maintain the aforementioned insurance, or secure and maintain the aforementioned endorsement, the City may obtain such insurance, and deduct and retain the amount of the premiums for such insurance from any sums due under this Agreement. However, procuring of said insurance by City is an alternative to other remedies City may have, and is not the exclusive remedy for failure of Contractor to maintain said insurance or secure said endorsement. In addition to any other remedies City may have upon Contractor’s failure to provide and maintain any insurance or policy endorsements to the extent and within the time herein required, City shall have the right to order Contractor to stop work hereunder, and/or withhold any payment(s) which became due to Contractor hereunder until Contractor demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof.

Nothing herein contained shall be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which Contractor may be held responsible for the payment of damages to any persons or property resulting from Contractor’s activities or the activities of any person or persons for which Contractor is otherwise responsible nor shall it limit Contractor’s indemnification liabilities as provided in Section 5.3 The name and address for Additional Insured endorsements, Certificates and Notice of Cancellation is: City of Yorba Linda, 4845 Casa Loma Avenue, Yorba Linda, California, 92886.

Certificate of Insurance must include the following reference:

In the event Contractor subcontracts any portion of the Services in compliance with this Agreement, the contract between Contractor and such subcontractor shall require the subcontractor to maintain the same policies of insurance that Contractor is required to maintain pursuant to Section 5.1, and such certificates and endorsements shall be provided to City.

5.3 Indemnification. To the full extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City, its officers, employees, agents, and volunteers (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all actions, either judicial, administrative, arbitration, or regulatory, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties, obligations, errors, omissions, or liabilities whether actual or threatened (“Claims or Liabilities”) that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm, or entity arising out of or in connection with the performance of the Services, operations, or activities provided herein of Contractor, its officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, or invitees, or any individual or entity for which Contractor is legally liable (“Indemnors”), or arising from Contractor’s reckless or willful misconduct, or arising from Contractor’s or Indemnors’ negligent performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this Agreement, and in connection therewith:

(d) Contractor’s duty to defend and indemnify as set out in this Section 5.3 shall include any claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, demands, actions, penalties, suits, costs, expenses or damages or injury to persons or property arising or alleged to arise from, in connection with, as a consequence of or pursuant to any state or federal law or regulation regarding hazardous substances, including but not limited to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (“FIFRA”), Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (“RCRA”), the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984, the Hazardous Material Transportation Act, the Toxic Substances control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the California Hazardous Substance Account Act, the California Hazardous Waste Control Law or the Porter-Cologne Water Quality Control Act, as any of those statutes may be amended from time to time.

The provisions of this Section do not apply to Claims or Liabilities occurring as a result of City’s sole negligence or willful acts or omissions, but to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall apply to claims and liabilities resulting in part from City’s negligence, except that design professionals’ indemnity hereunder shall be limited to claims and liabilities arising out of the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the design professional. Contractor’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall be binding on successors and assigns of Contractor and shall survive termination of this Agreement. Contractor shall incorporate similar indemnity agreements with its subcontractors and if it fails to do so Contractor shall be fully responsible to indemnify City, and failure of City to monitor compliance with these provisions shall not be a waiver hereof.

5.5 Sufficiency of Insurer or Surety. Insurance or bonds required by this Agreement shall be satisfactory only if issued by companies qualified to do business in California, rated “A” or better in the most recent edition of Best Rating Guide, The Key Rating Guide or in the Federal Register, and only if they are of a financial category Class VU or better, unless such requirements are waived by the Risk Manager of City (“Risk Manager”) due to unique circumstances. In the event the Risk Manager determines that the Services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased risk of loss to City, Contractor agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies and the performance bond

7. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT.

7.1 California Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, and governed both as to validity and to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in Santa Ana.

7.2 Disputes. In the event either Party fails to perform its obligations hereunder, the nondefaulting Party shall provide the defaulting Party written notice of such default. The defaulting Party shall have ten (10) days to cure the default; provided that, if the default is not reasonably susceptible to being cured within said ten (10) day period, the defaulting Party shall have a reasonable time to cure the default, not to exceed a maximum of thirty (30) days, so long as the defaulting Party commences to cure such default within ten (10) days of service of such notice and diligently prosecutes the cure to completion; provided further that if the default is an immediate danger to the health, safety, and general welfare, the defaulting Party shall take such immediate action as may be necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the nondefaulting Party may, in its sole and absolute discretion, grant a longer cure period.

Should the defaulting Party fail to cure the default within the time period provided in this Section, the nondefaulting Party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights the nondefaulting Party may have at law or in equity, to terminate this Agreement. Compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.2 shall

Page 461 of 539 ends

15 be a condition precedent to bringing any legal action, and such compliance shall not be a waiver of any Party’s right to take legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured. During the period of time that Contractor is in default, City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default.

7.3 Claims. Notwithstanding Article 1.5 (commencing with Section 20104) of Chapter 1 of Part 3, Section 9204 of the Public Contract Code shall apply to any claim by the Contractor in connection with the Project.
(a) Upon receipt of a claim pursuant to Section 9204 of the Public Contract Code, the City will conduct a reasonable review of the claim and, within a period not to exceed 45 Days, provide the Contractor a written statement identifying what portion of the claim is disputed and what portion is undisputed. Upon receipt of a claim, the Contractor and the City may, by mutual agreement, extend the aforementioned time period.
(b) The Contractor shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. (c) If City Council approval is needed to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion of the claim, and the City Council does not meet within the 45 Days or within the mutually agreed to extension of time following receipt of a claim sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the City will have up to 3 Days following the next duly publicly noticed meeting of the City Council after the 45-Day period, or extension, expires to provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the disputed portion and the undisputed portion.
(d) Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim will be processed and made within 60 Days after the City issues its written statement. If the City fails to issue a written statement, paragraph (i) shall apply.
(e) If the Contractor disputes the City’s written response, or if the City fails to respond to a claim issued pursuant to Section 9204 within the time prescribed, the Contractor may demand in writing an informal conference to meet and confer for settlement of the issues in dispute. Upon receipt of a demand in writing sent by registered mail or certified mail, return receipt requested, the City will schedule a meet and confer conference within 30 Days for settlement of the dispute. (f) Within 10 business days following the conclusion of the meet and confer conference, if the claim or any portion of the claim remains in dispute, the City will provide the Contractor a written statement identifying the portion of the claim that remains in dispute and the portion that is undisputed. Any payment due on an undisputed portion of the claim will be processed and made within 60 Days after the City issues its written statement. Any disputed portion of the claim, as identified by the Contractor in writing, shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation, with the City and the Contractor sharing the associated costs equally. The City and the Contractor shall mutually agree to a mediator within 10 business days after the disputed portion of the claim has been identified in writing. If the parties cannot agree upon a mediator, each party shall select a mediator and those mediators shall select a qualified neutral third party to mediate with regard to the disputed portion of the claim. Each party shall bear the fees and costs charged by its respective mediator in connection with the selection of the neutral mediator. If mediation is unsuccessful, the parts of the claim remaining in dispute shall be subject to applicable procedures outside those established in Section 9204.
(g) Mediation may include any nonbinding process, including, but not limited to, neutral

Page 462 of 539 ends

16 evaluation or a dispute review board, in which an independent third party or board assists the parties in dispute resolution through negotiation or by issuance of an evaluation. Any mediation utilized shall conform to the timeframes in Section 9204. (h) Unless otherwise agreed to by the City and the Contractor in writing, the mediation conducted pursuant to Section 9204 shall excuse any further obligation under Section 20104.4 to mediate after litigation has been commenced.
(i) Failure by the City to respond to a claim from the Contractor within the time periods described in this subdivision or to otherwise meet the time requirements of Section 9204 shall result in the claim being deemed rejected in its entirety. (j) Amounts not paid in a timely manner as required by Section 9204 will bear interest at 7 percent per annum.
(k) If a Subcontractor or a lower tier Subcontractor lacks legal standing to assert a claim against the City because privity of the Contract does not exist, the Contractor may present to the City a claim on behalf of a Subcontractor or lower tier Subcontractor. A Subcontractor may request in writing, either on its own behalf or on behalf of a lower tier Subcontractor, that the Contractor present a claim for work which was performed by the Subcontractor or by a lower tier Subcontractor on behalf of the Subcontractor. The Subcontractor requesting that the claim be presented to the City shall furnish reasonable documentation to support the claim. Within 45 Days of receipt of this written request, the Contractor shall notify the Subcontractor in writing as to whether the Contractor presented the claim to the City and, if the original Contractor did not present the claim, provide the Subcontractor with a statement of the reasons for not having done so.
(l) A waiver of the rights granted by Section 9204 is void and contrary to public policy, provided, however, that (1) upon receipt of a claim, the Contractor and the City may mutually agree to waive, in writing, mediation and proceed directly to the commencement of a civil action or binding arbitration, as applicable; and (2) the City may prescribe reasonable change order, claim, and dispute resolution procedures and requirements in addition to the provisions of Section 9204, so long as the contractual provisions do not conflict with or otherwise impair the timeframes and procedures set forth in Section 9204.

7.4 Retention of Funds. Progress payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2 of this agreement. In accordance with said section, City shall pay Contractor a sum based upon ninety-five percent (95%) of the Contract Sum apportionment of the labor and materials incorporated into the Services under this Agreement during the month covered by said statement. The remaining five percent (5%) thereof shall be retained as performance security to be paid to Contractor within sixty (60) days after final acceptance of the Services by the City Council of City, after Contractor has furnished City with a full release of all undisputed payments under this Agreement, if required by City. In the event there are any claims specifically excluded by Contractor from the operation of the release, City may retain proceeds (per Public Contract Code § 7107) of up to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount in dispute. City’s failure to deduct or withhold shall not affect Contractor’s obligations hereunder.

7.5 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a nondefaulting Party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. A Party’s consent to or approval of any act by the other Party requiring the Party’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the other Party’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act. Any waiver by either Party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default

Page 463 of 539 ends

17 concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.

7.6 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party.

7.7 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

7.8 Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to City the sum of EIGHT HUNDRED AND FIFTH DOLLARS ($850.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the Services required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance. In addition, liquidated damages may be assessed for failure to comply with the emergency call out requirements described in the Scope of Services. City may withhold from any moneys payable on account of the Services performed by Contractor any accrued liquidated damages.

7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor. If termination is due to the failure of Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, Contractor shall vacate any City-owned property which Contractor is permitted to occupy hereunder and City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the Services and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Contractor for the purpose of setoff or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated.

7.10 Attorneys’ Fees. If either Party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a Party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing Party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees; provided, however, that the attorneys’ fees awarded pursuant to this Section shall not exceed the hourly rate paid by City for legal services multiplied by the reasonable number of hours spent by the prevailing Party in the conduct of the litigation. Attorneys’ fees shall include attorneys’ fees on any appeal, and in addition a Party entitled to attorneys’ fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery, and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment. The court may set such fees in the same action or in a separate action brought for that purpose.

8. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES, NONDISCRIMINATION.

8.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees. No officer, official, employee, agent,

Page 464 of 539 ends

18 representative, or volunteer of City shall be personally liable to Contractor, or any successor in interest, in the event of any default or breach by City or for any amount which may become due to Contractor or to its successor, or for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement.

8.2 Conflict of Interest. Contractor covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of it, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder Contractor’s performance of the Services under this Agreement. Contractor further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an officer, employee, agent, or subcontractor without the express written consent of the Contract Officer. Contractor agrees to at all times avoid conflicts of interest or the appearance of any conflicts of interest with the interests of City in the performance of this Agreement.

No officer or employee of City shall have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement nor shall any such officer or employee participate in any decision relating to this Agreement which effects his financial interest or the financial interest of any corporation, partnership or association in which he is, directly or indirectly, interested, in violation of any State statute or regulation. Contractor warrants that it has not paid or given and will not pay or give any third party any money or other consideration for obtaining this Agreement.

8.3 Covenant Against Discrimination.

ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT
DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DAVID ALBAUGH, ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: WAGE ADJUSTMENTS FOR NON-REPRESENTED PART TIME

POSITIONS

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council Adopt Resolution No. 2022-5834 related to the compensation of non-represented part time employees.

DISCUSSION
The wages for non-represented part time positions were last adjusted on December 21, 2021, by Resolution No. 2021-5778. Resolution 2022-5834 is being submitted for your consideration to update and adjust the hourly wage rates for certain non-represented part time positions.

The proposed changes to the wage tables for certain non-represented part time positions are primarily driven by Senate Bill 3 (SB 3) passed by the California Legislature and signed into law in 2016. SB 3 modified California Labor Code section 1182.12 and is reflected in the California Department of Industrial Relations Minimum Wage Order (MW-2019).

SB 3 gradually increased the state minimum wage to $15.00 per hour for all employees, effective January 1, 2022. However, California Labor Code section 1182.12 requires the state to determine annually if the minimum wage rate should be adjusted for inflation, beginning in 2023. The Department of Finance announced its determination on July 27, 2022 that an inflationary increase was triggered under SB 3, and effective January 1, 2023, the minimum wage in California will be increased to $15.50 per hour for all employees.

The purpose of this resolution is to advance the City’s lowest wage structures to the $15.50 per hour threshold in observance of the SB 3 statutory requirements These proposed changes ensure future compliance with state law and allow the City of Yorba Linda to continue to attract and retain qualified, high-performing employees.

Page 469 of 539 ends

WAGE ADJUSTMENTS FOR NON-REPRESENTED PART TIME POSITIONS P a g e | 2

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed changes currently affect only one incumbent employed on a limited part time basis in a grant-funded position. Due to the limited number of affected employees and the partial fiscal year implementation, the requested adjustments can be absorbed in the current year’s budget. If appropriation adjustments are necessary in the future, the changes will be incorporated into future budget requests.

PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT
DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MIKE KUDRON, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 2022-5835 APPROVING THE FILING

OF PROJECT APPLICATION FOR THE BRYANT RANCH PARK

BASKETBALL COURT PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2022-5835 approving the filing of the project application for the Bryant Ranch Basketball Court Project funded through the State of California.

BACKGROUND
Assemblyman Chen’s office contacted staff and requested a park improvement project that he could submit for potential funding as part of the State of California budget process. This was a request that needed a quick turnaround and staff recommended improvements at Bryant Ranch Park, which would be consistent with the Master Plan for that park. The park currently has an existing baseball/soccer field, playground, parking lot, restroom, and picnic benches. The focus of this improvement project is to provide a new basketball court (with pickleball overlay courts) and court lighting as a new recreational feature for the park.

Support amenities will include new gathering areas, bench seating, pathways for access, and new drought tolerant landscape. The total project cost is estimated to be $700,000, which includes design services and construction.

Basketball courts are a noted deficiency in the Yorba Linda Parks and Recreation Master Plan. The City of Yorba Linda has over 68,000 residents and only has 3.5 basketball courts city-wide. In addition, the interest in pickleball is expanding at a rapid pace and this project would be greatly appreciated by the residents of Yorba Linda.

DISCUSSION
This fall, staff was notified that the funding had been approved as part of the State of California Budget Act of 2022, item 3790-101-0001 as amended by AB 179, Section 19.56 Item #(9)(b)(1) (AC) $700,000 to the City of Yorba Linda for the Bryant Ranch Park improvement project. On October 13, Assemblyman Philip Chen awarded Mayor Carlos Rodriguez and Parks and Recreation Commissioner Chair Doug Dickerson a ceremonial check for $700,000 at Yorba Linda City Council Chambers. This grant funding does not

require a match, but there is a lengthy and detailed grant process, which is very similar to Proposition 68. Recently, staff attended a grant workshop and the first step to encumber the funds and move forward is for the City of pass a resolution. Once the resolution is passed, the state will send the City of Yorba Linda an executed contract, which will allow staff to begin submitting application documents.

The project timeline for future construction is unknown at this time. Staff will have a better understanding once application documents are submitted. Following the application process, the next steps would include hiring an architect, developing plans and specifications, bidding the project, and construction.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact with the adoption of Resolution No. 2022-5835 approving the filing of the project application for the Bryant Ranch Basketball Project funded through the State of California.

ALTERNATIVES
Do not adopt resolution No. 2022-5835 approving the filing of project application for the Bryant Ranch Basketball Project funded through the State of California, thus directing staff to not participate in this grant program.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MARK A. PULONE, CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY: MARK K. AALDERS, ASSISTANT TO THE CITY

MANAGER
SUBJECT: DENIAL OF CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Yorba Linda deny the claims for damages by John Evans Arek and Kyle Brown.

BACKGROUND
Claims for damages filed against the City are reviewed and investigated by City staff and a third-party claims administrator with the George Hills Company. George Hills Company specializes in claims management and risk management services. These services are provided through the City’s contract membership in the California Insurance Pool Authority.

Staff makes recommendations to the Council for settlement or denial based on the investigatory findings. A claimant’s failure to provide evidence of and/or supporting documents to substantiate the claim for damages will also result in a recommendation for denial of the claim.

DISCUSSION
The following claims for damages have been recommended for denial based on the investigations by City staff and the third-party claims administrator. Further details for each claim are available upon request.

John Evans Arek
The claimant alleges that City staff engaged in racial discrimination which has led to emotional injuries. He states that in two separate incidents and at two different locations (City Library and City Hall), City staff caused him embarrassment and emotional distress.

The City’s Administration Department and City Attorney’s Office determined that the staff members involved in the alleged incidents acted professionally and without malice or discriminatory intent in addressing the claimant’s concerns. Moreover, City staff conducted themselves appropriately and in accordance with the City’s policies and administrative

Page 481 of 539 ends

DENIAL OF CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES
P a g e | 2
procedures. Therefore, the third-party claims administrator, City staff and the City Attorney recommend denying the claim.

Kyle Brown
The claimant’s legal representatives allege that the City’s playground equipment at Jessamyn West Park was unsafe due to the claimant (Kyle Brown) falling through a laddered shaft which caused severe injuries. Staff performed an on-site inspection and safety review and found no dangerous conditions or design flaw with the park’s playground equipment. In addition, staff reviewed the documents provided and noted that the claimant’s claim letter cites that the injury occurred while the claimant “…was not being properly supervised.” Jessamyn West Park is an unsupervised playground and the claimant was not participating in any City events in which City staff would be present to supervise participants. Staff’s recollection upon receiving the first call regarding this incident is that the claimant is three years old so supervision by the parents or guardian would always be recommended when using playground equipment. This park’s playground equipment signage also states that it is “…designed for children 5-12 years old” and “Adult supervision is strongly recommended.” Therefore, the City’s third-party administrator and City staff recommend denying the claim.

FISCAL IMPACT
None

ALTERNATIVES
As an alternative to staff’s recommendations for the claims, the City Council has the following options:

1. Accept liability for the claims and pay the amount specified in the claim forms.

2. Grant settlement authority up to a certain amount and direct the claims adjuster to enter into settlement negotiations with the claimants.

DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE CHAIR AND MUNICIPAL FINANCING AUTHORITY BOARD

MEMBERS
FROM: DIANNA HONEYWELL, FINANCE DIRECTOR / CITY TREASURER SUBJECT: ANNUAL MEETING AND CONFIRMATION OF OFFICERS FOR THE

MUNICIPAL FINANCING AUTHORITY

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council acting as the Board of Directors of the Yorba Linda Municipal Financing Authority confirm and appoint the officers of the Authority as follows:

City Position Office of the Authority
Mayor Chair
Mayor Pro Tem Vice Chair
City Manager Executive Director
City Clerk Secretary
Finance Director Treasurer

BACKGROUND
On April 17, 2018, the City Council of the City of Yorba Linda and the Board of Directors of the Yorba Linda Housing Authority (also the City Council) approved a joint exercise of powers agreement forming the Yorba Linda Municipal Financing Authority (the Authority).

The Authority was established for the purpose of issuing bonds, notes and other obligations of the City. Currently, the related debt outstanding includes the 2018 Lease Revenue Bonds issued for the construction of the new Public Library.

On May 1, 2018, the Authority Board of Directors adopted By-Laws for the Authority, which among other things require that an Annual Meeting of the Authority be held for the purpose of confirming its Officers. Under the By-Laws, the Officers are the holders of various City positions and not specific individuals. Thus, the holder of each Office of the Authority changes whenever the holder of the corresponding City position changes.

DISCUSSION
This item is included annually on the City Council agenda in December, as this is when the holders of the City positions of Mayor and Mayor Pro-Tem change. This change occurred during the regular Council meeting held on December 6, 2022. As the holder of each Office

Page 483 of 539 ends

ANNUAL MEETING AND CONFIRMATION OF OFFICERS FOR THE AUTHORITY P a g e | 2
of the Authority is tied to a corresponding City position, there is no action required to specifically appoint the new Mayor and Mayor Pro-Tem to the Offices of Chair and Vice Chair of the Authority. Should any changes be desired to the method by which Officers of the Authority are designated, an amendment to the Authority’s By-Laws would be required.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

ALTERNATIVES
The Board of Directors could direct staff to bring forward an amendment to the Authority’s By-Laws to change the method by which the holder of one or more of the Offices of the Authority is designated.

DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL
FROM: JAMIE LAI, P.E. DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS/CITY ENGINEER PREPARED BY: TONY WANG, P.E. TRAFFIC ENGINEERING MANAGER SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF TEMPORARY STREET CLOSURE REQUEST – 4881

TORIDA WAY

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve Roadway Construction Service’s request to conduct a temporary street closure to replace a power pole on Torida Way between Orange Drive and Foley Drive.

BACKGROUND
Staff has received a request from Roadway Construction Service (Southern California Edison’s contractor) to conduct a temporary street closure on Torida Way between Orange Drive and Foley Drive. The reason for the request is to accommodate the use of a crane to perform the power pole replacement on behalf of Southern California Edison.

Proposed dates: January 17, 2023
Job duration: Approximately 6 hours, street closure generally between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

DISCUSSION
Torida Way is a 36-foot-wide residential street with no parking restrictions. It needs to be fully closed when the crane is built up with the outriggers out as it will take the full width of the street to safely set up. The access for through traffic will not be available during the street closure. However, provisions for emergency vehicle access will be maintained at all times.

Prior notification and outreach will be coordinated by Roadway Construction Service to all impacted residents.

Conditions of Approval:

Staff supports the request subject to the applicant complying with the requirements of Traffic Commission Policy No. 36 and the following conditions:

1. Residents shall be notified no less than two weeks prior to the street closure and be renotified within 72 hours of the closure.

Page 485 of 539 ends

2. The street closures shall conform to all applicable requirements of the State of California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).

3. Provisions for emergency vehicle access shall be maintained at all times.

4. An alternative parking plan for impacted residents shall be provided and approved by the City Engineer.

5. An encroachment permit shall be obtained from the Public Works Department.

6. Applicant shall notify the Orange County Fire Authority and the Orange County Sheriff’s Department not less than 72 hours prior to the physical street closure.

The Traffic Commission reviewed and approved this item at its December 12, 2022 meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with the recommended action. The applicant and/or contractor will be required to pay for all required permits and costs associated with the proposed closure.

ALTERNATIVES
The City Council may choose to not approve the temporary street closure. However, staff does not recommend this alternative as it would delay the replacement of the detreated power pole which may be a safety concern.

Roadway Construction Service P.O. Box 3382 Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670 (855) 919-7233 The road at 4881 Torida Way will be closed between Foley dr and Orange Dr on 1/17/2023 for a crane to replace a SCE backyard power pole. The road will need to be fully closed because the width of the street is 30ft and when the crane is built up with the outriggers out it will take the full width of the street to safetly set up. The job will only take 1 day to complete for about 6 hours. We will have flaggers onsite to assit with any pedestrians and to help with resisdents in and out of their home.

EVALUATION OF ON-ROAD SAFETY ENHANCEMENTS COMING TO

THE TOLL ROADS
The Boards of Directors of the Foothill/Eastern (F/ETCA) and San Joaquin Hills Transportation Corridor Agencies (SJHTCA) approved a task order with Fagan Consulting and subcontractor Stantec to evaluate on-road safety enhancement options and develop recommendations to enhance safety on The Toll Roads.

The initiative is part of TCA’s Strategic Plan and calls for evaluating the feasibility of leveraging existing TCA toll system equipment to accurately detect and report wrong-way vehicles, as well as evaluating wrong-way vehicle detection and prevention systems in use on other facilities and providing recommendations on their suitability for deployment on The Toll Roads.

The contractors will work with TCA staff to develop strategic, tactical and operational plans for procuring, implementing, operating and maintaining a wrong-way vehicle detection/prevention program. Report recommendations will be reviewed with Caltrans and the California Highway Patrol.

Fagan and subcontractor Stantec were recommended after a competitive bidding process of four possible contractors. Selection was based on a combination of factors that included experience and qualifications of the proposed team, schedule and cost.

POLICY FOR SURPLUS LAND ADOPTED
The Joint Boards of Directors approved a policy for the disposal of surplus land that provides guidance for the identification and disposal of TCA-owned surplus land and exempt surplus land.

The policy is needed to allow the Boards of Directors to take action on parcels that may be designated as surplus land or exempt surplus land in the future. Currently, TCA has no parcels designated as surplus land.

Historically, the Surplus Lands Act did not apply to Joint Powers Authorities (JPAs) and the Agencies have not had a need for a policy. JPAs were included in the Act in 2019.

VALARIE MCFALL APPOINTED INTERIM CEO
Valarie McFall has been appointed Interim CEO effective immediately. McFall is a respected, award-winning industry veteran with more than a quarter century of transportation, environmental and external affairs acumen.

Since joining TCA in 2000, McFall has held several increasingly senior positions.

Before being named the first Deputy CEO in 2020, she was Chief Environmental Planning Officer, responsible for managing the Agencies’ 17 mitigation sites spanning over 2,200 acres of protected open space. Her efforts yielded meaningful results, including the preservation of multiple key properties throughout Orange County to ensure the continued presence of important native habitat for wildlife species and the protection of core wildlife linkages running from the coast to the inland portion of the county.

Her expertise in public policy has proven instrumental to TCA’s completion of the South County Traffic Relief Effort and advancing the 241/91 Express Connector Project — two critically-important, large-scale projects that will provide countywide and regional congestion relief.

General Information
Bed bugs are widespread and have been found in houses,
apartments, hotels, schools, hospitals, dormitories, and movie theaters. They use their straw-like mouthparts to suck blood from warm-blooded animals such as humans, bats, and birds.

Adults are oval-shaped, flattened front-to-back, and wingless.

At maturity, they are 4–5 mm long and 1.5–3 mm wide. They are light brown when hungry but after feeding on blood, their abdomen looks bright red, red-brown, or blackish. Bed bugs may mistaken for small cockroaches but unlike cockroaches, which scavenge human food, bed bugs feed only on blood.

They remain hidden during the day and actively feed at night.

Their bites are painless but the bite wounds can be extremely itchy for days later. If disturbed, alarmed, or crushed, they release an unpleasant musky odor. When they defecate, they leave dark stains (fecal spots), often on sheets and bedding.

Life Cycle
Bed bugs have three stages in their life cycle: egg, nymph, and adult. Adult females lay eggs on rough dry surfaces near their hiding places, either singly or in small clusters. One to four weeks later, the nymphs hatch from the eggs and seek a host animal from which to feed. As nymphs eat and mature, they outgrow their skin, grow a new skin layer beneath it, and shed the old one, a process called molting. Following each molt, the nymph is a little larger. After the fifth growth-molt cycle, usually 4-6 weeks later, the bed bug reaches full size and is an adult. The process of changing body forms while maturing is called metamorphosis.

Bed Bug Bites
At night, bed bugs travel from their hiding places to feed on sleeping host animals. They insert their long needle-like mouthparts into the skin, inject saliva which digests blood cells, and drink up the digested blood. As the abdomen fills with blood, it turns bright red, dark red-brown, or blackish.

After feeding, they retreat to their hiding places. They typically feed every 5-10 days but can live for up to 8 months without feeding.

Unlike many insects that feed on human blood, bed bugs are not known to transmit (vector) any disease-causing bacteria or viruses (pathogens). Reactions to bed bug bites vary among individuals. Many victims show no signs of bites. Others don’t realize they’ve been bitten until rash, redness, or swelling appears around the bite, sometimes with intense itching.

Tips for Traveling
• Pack clean clothing and toiletries in sealable plastic bags, then into your luggage. Take additional sealable plastic bags for dirty clothes.
• Before staying or sleeping in a new place, inspect the room and bedding for infestation. Turn back all bedding and lift the mattress corners in order to look for bed bugs and their fecal spots.
• If you find signs of bed bugs, tell the management and request another room; an even better choice is to leave that hotel. Do not let them offer to “spot treat” the infested room for you; the infested room must be treated over time by a pest control company and cannot be occupied that day.
• Keep all luggage items off of the floor and bed; place them on a luggage rack or in the bathtub.
• Don’t unpack; keep your belongings in your suitcase.
• Place dirty clothes in sealed plastic bags for later washing. • Before you pack to leave the hotel, inspect your luggage for bed bugs.
• When you return home, place your luggage in the garage or outdoors, not in your home.
• Remove items individually and inspect them for bed bugs.

As clothes and other items are removed from plastic bags, immediately wash them as described above.
• Once luggage items are emptied, vaccuum them, and place them in sealable plastic bags; store them in the garage if possible.

Detection
Bed bugs are active at night and are adept at hiding in dark places during the day. They most often hide in crevices and in spaces between mattresses and box springs, on bed frames and headboards, and between couch and chair cushions. They are less commonly found in dressers and nightstands, in and on luggage, in electrical outlets, and among clutter. Once they infest a room, they often travel to adjacent rooms.

People with a sensitive sense of smell can detect the unpleasant musky odor released into a room by bed bugs. In addition to bite symptoms, other signs of their presence include fecal spots, blood smears on sheets, and molted skins.

Prevention and Control
Proper sanitation practices and diligence can help prevent bed bug infestation.
• Inspect for bed bugs wherever you sit or stay. Eggs are tiny white ovals, bed bugs are brownish, shed skins are yellowish, and fecal spots are black.
• If you may have been exposed to bed bugs, wash and dry your clothes on high heat, then run them through the dryer again for at least 20 minutes. Dry clean items that cannot be machine-dried. Place shoes and other non-washable
items into sealable plastic bags and place them in the freezer overnight to kill bed bugs that might be on or in them. • Never bring used or discarded furniture or clothing into your home unless it has been carefully inspected for bed bugs.

Wash and/or freeze clothing and other items as described above.
• If you find bed bugs at home, do not try to control them yourself; no over-the-counter product is effective at
eliminating the infestation. Bed bug control should be
handled by a licensed professional pest control company that is experienced in bed bug management.

Back to Bed Bug Basics
November 10, 2022
By: Anne Nagro
Bed bugs were nearly wiped out after World War II thanks to applications of now-prohibited pesticides like DDT.

But in the early 2000s, bed bug populations surged in North America. It was the first time many pest management professionals had ever encountered the pest, which hadn’t been studied in decades. Industry knowledge on how to control bed bugs was lacking.

Over the past 20 years, we’ve learned a lot about this pest. And today, bed bug extermination services account for 49.5 per cent, or about $990 million, of the Canadian pest management industry's revenue, according to a 2022 report by IBISWorld, a global industry research firm.

The industry continues to deepen its knowledge of the cryptic pests and hone techniques and products to control them.

Sarah Latyn, training and quality assurance coordinator for TRNZ4m, formerly Bed Bug Central, provided a refresher on bed bug intel and control strategies at the National Pest Management Association’s 2020 virtual bed bug summit:

WHAT BED BUGS LOOK LIKE. The adult common bed bug, Cimex lectularius, is about a quarter-inch long. It is flat, wingless and reddish brown. It is similar in size, shape and color to an apple seed. Juvenile bed bugs (nymphs) are smaller and pale, making them difficult to see. As nymphs grow, they become darker and larger. “Many people out there think that bed bugs are microscopic and they're impossible to see, and that's why they're so difficult to get rid of. But in actuality, if you know what you're looking for, then you are going to be able to more easily find the signs of bed bugs and find those bed bugs themselves,” says Latyn.

Customers often mistake juvenile cockroaches and carpet beetles for bed bugs.

THE BED BUG LIFE CYCLE. Bed bugs hatch from eggs. They then progress through five stages, or instars, on their way to adulthood. Bed bugs must have a blood meal to molt and progress to the next instar. Bed bugs only feed on blood. As well, female bed bugs need a blood meal to develop eggs. After mating, female bed bugs lay one to five eggs a day.

According to the Mallis Handbook of Pest Control (10th edition), the entire bed bug lifecycle (egg to egg) typically takes four to five weeks under optimal conditions (70 to 80 per cent relative humidity and 28 to 32 degrees Celsius). Up to four generations of bed bugs may occur in a year. Adult bed bugs can live up to 316 days or longer in ideal conditions.

Page 495 of 539 ends

Laboratory Report, December 15, 2022 Attachment No. 2
WHEN WERE BED BUGS INTRODUCED? Customers often want to know how long bed bugs have been present in their home.
“Clients want to make assumptions on when they've been introduced, but it's really impossible to tell,” says Latyn.

Here’s why: Environmental conditions affect how fast bed bug eggs hatch. In warm weather, eggs may hatch in two weeks. In cold weather, this may take two months. It is difficult to know how many bed bugs were introduced in the first place.
“If only five bed bugs were introduced to start out, that might take two months to achieve 100 bed bugs,” explains Latyn. But if 50 bed bugs were introduced, such as by bringing in an infested piece of furniture, it might only take two weeks for 100 or more bed bugs to develop, she says.

HOW BED BUGS FIND A HOST. Three cues help bed bugs find a human host. The first is carbon dioxide, which we exhale. Bed bugs sense carbon dioxide and use it to zero in on a blood meal.

The second cue is body heat. Bed bugs sense body heat, allowing them to move closer to the host.

The third cue is body odor, or the chemicals emitted by human skin.

In addition to humans, bed bugs will feed on the blood of animals in the home, such as dogs, cats, rabbits and birds. The pests feed every few days to once a week.

HOW PEOPLE REACT TO BED BUG BITES. Bed bugs typically bite at night when the host is still and sleeping soundly. While the actual biting is painless, the resulting bite marks may be red and itchy. Bites tend to occur in rows and clusters on exposed skin surfaces, often on the upper torso, arms and neck.

Everyone reacts differently to bed bug bites. A 2009 study by the University of Sheffield found almost 15 per cent of participants had a seven- to 11-day delayed reaction to repeated bed bug bites, and 54 per cent didn't react at all to the initial bite.

Similarly, 30 per cent of people said they did not react to bed bug bites in a 2009 University of Kentucky (UKY) survey. And elderly people were less sensitive to bed bug bites, found a survey conducted by UKY and the Lexington (Kentucky) Health Department.
“We never want to use bites to definitively identify a problem,” says Latyn. If someone complains about bites, this is reason to conduct an inspection. “It is not reason to say, ‘Okay, you absolutely have bedbugs; we need to do that bedbug treatment right away,’” she cautions. (Editor’s note: Never inspect or diagnose customer bites or skin issues; suggest they see a medical professional.)
While bed bugs aren’t known to transmit disease through bites, they do cause emotional distress. Bed bugs cause people to lose sleep, which leads to issues like lack of concentration, irritability and anxiety.

SIGNS OF BED BUG ACTIVITY. A common clue to bed bug activity is fecal spotting, which looks like black dots made with a fine-point marker. Bed bugs typically defecate near their hiding spots, which can help target your treatment efforts.
“That fecal spotting tells me maybe there are eggs in this area. Maybe there's a crack that I just can't see into, but I can see fecal spotting, so I am fairly certain that bed bugs are present in this area,” says Latyn.

Also be on the lookout for live bugs and cast skins, or the molted skins of bed bug nymphs. Eggs and first- and second-instar nymphs, which are nearly translucent, are more difficult to see with the naked eye.

WHERE ARE BED BUGS FOUND? Bed bugs and bed bug eggs are predictable in that they’re typically found where people spend time resting. This may be the bed, recliner or sofa. Wheelchairs and motorized carts often harbour bed bugs and often are overlooked during inspection and treatment.

Bed bugs gather or aggregate in tiny cracks and crevices. On a bed, they’re most likely found in the box spring, which is disrupted less than the mattress when sheets are changed. Also inspect screw holes and joints of

Page 496 of 539 ends

Laboratory Report, December 15, 2022 Attachment No. 2
wood furniture like side tables and headboards, behind baseboards and wall hangings, and along mattress seams.

Latyn has noticed a bed bug distribution pattern over the years: About 70 per cent of apartments and singlefamily homes have low-level bed bug infestations with 20 or fewer live bed bugs. About 20 per cent get moderate infestations with 20 to 100 live bed bugs, and 10 per cent are high-level infestations with 100 or more live bed bugs.

HOW MATING BEHAVIOR INFLUENCES LOCATION. Bed bugs mate by a process called traumatic insemination, where the male bed bug pushes his reproductive organ directly into the female's abdomen, not into the female reproductive tract. On average, females may endure five of these stabbings per feeding. Males are attracted to female bed bugs that recently had a blood meal, which enables them to produce eggs. “This gives rise to some of the theories about why females move so much, why we might find female bed bugs or eggs or nymphs away from the bed bug aggregation sites, because those females might be leaving those aggregation sites to lay eggs and to try and heal their abdomens up,” says Latyn.

HOW BED BUGS MOVE. Bed bugs move to different locations in two ways. The first is by hitchhiking. Bed bugs can hitch a ride on luggage, purses, backpacks or clothing during a hotel stay, while riding public transportation, visiting a friend’s house or even moving from room to room.

Bed bugs also are very mobile and travel extensively on their own, according to a 2015 Rutgers University study. The researchers collected bed bugs, marked them with different colored dots of paint in the lab and then released them into six apartments. Using pitfall-style monitors, they found the marked bed bugs traveled extensively throughout those apartments and within two weeks were moving into neighboring units. “This is why, if you're not already doing them, surrounding-unit inspections are so important,” says Latyn.

WHY MONITORING IS ESSENTIAL. A visual inspection may not catch a low-level infestation of bed bugs.

That is why it is important to use monitoring devices. Knowing the severity of the problem influences the treatment regimen, because how you handle two bed bugs will differ from how you control 200 or 2,000 bed bugs.

Place pitfall traps or monitors under the feet of furniture and beds. They intercept bed bugs leaving or trying to access these resting places. The bed bugs crawl up the textured side of the trap and fall into the slippery valley, where they can’t climb out. Studies conducted in 2011 and 2016 by Rutgers University researchers found pitfall traps were more effective at detecting low-level bed bug infestations than visual inspections.

However, the devices cannot replace visual inspection, because they do not gather information like evidence of fecal spotting.

Ongoing monitoring helps gauge the effectiveness of treatment. The number of bed bugs trapped in monitoring devices should decrease until the population is eliminated. In addition to monitoring devices and visual inspection, some professionals use canine scent detection to inspect for bed bugs before treatment and to ensure no bed bugs or eggs are living post-treatment.
“We always want to make sure we're not just relying upon one method,” says Latyn.

HOW MUCH SITE PREP IS NECESSARY? Many bed bug treatment protocols just don’t hold up anymore, and “one of those things is traditional prep for bed bugs,” says Latyn.

It once was standard practice to require residents to strip the bed, empty closets and dressers, launder all bed linens and clothes, bag items that could not be washed, move items out of the affected rooms and more. But this approach can make the infestation harder to treat and is not always necessary.

Only the most severe infestations may require prep. “Ninety-five per cent of bed bug infestations do not need traditional prep to get rid of that infestation prior to treatment,” says Latyn. “And five per cent, that's when we're going to need a whole lot of cooperation. We're going to be putting in a whole lot more work for those infestations. Why are we treating the 95 per cent like they are that five per cent?”

Page 497 of 539 ends

Laboratory Report, December 15, 2022 Attachment No. 2
A no-prep approach doesn't mean no cooperation. “It just means we're taking an assessment-based approach” and making site-specific recommendations — I need you to launder this, empty that — without the resident disrupting the entire environment, she says.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BED BUG TREATMENT. An integrated pest management approach that relies on multiple tools is the most effective way to control bed bugs. Tools may include structural heat treatment, fumigation, vacuuming, steam cleaning (which kills eggs), freezing and the application of natural, biological or synthetic insecticides.

To combat bed bug resistance, regularly rotate classes of chemicals — choosing different modes of action and active ingredients — in your treatment protocol.

Bed bugs develop pesticide resistance in three ways. First, they can develop reduced cuticular penetration or thicker exoskeletons, meaning insecticides don’t easily penetrate the cuticle layer like they do in thinnerskinned bed bugs.

Second, they develop a more robust mixed-function oxidase system, where the bug’s enzymes attach to the insecticide entering its body and render it useless.

Third, the nervous systems of some bed bugs adapt so the alpha subunit on the nerve — the place where a pyrethroid molecule would lock in — no longer fits the pyrethroid key. This renders the insecticide ineffective.

It only takes a few bed bugs with these mutations to survive treatment and breed for a new generation of resistant pests to develop.

Be judicious in your use of dust and glue boards to prevent behavioral resistance. This is when a pest learns to avoid certain substances.

Use mattress encasements, which “allow us to take that complicated box spring out of the equation and help protect our clients’ bedding and help make our treatment methods easier,” says Latyn. “Lastly, it's not what you're using, but how you are using it. You can use the best product on the market, but if it's not being used with the biology and the behavior of the bed bug in mind, then it's not going to have a whole lot of effect,” she says.

Submitted By: Steve Shepherd, Director of Operations
The Operations team is ramping up to perform inspections of all 636 public schools over the next several months. Human cases of flea-borne typhus have increased dramatically in recent years and OCMVCD has documented conditions (such as dense harborage and animal burrowing) on school district properties throughout Orange County. The goal of a school site inspection is to identify potential mosquito breeding sources and any structural deficiencies which may harbor flea-bearing mammals. OCMVCD staff will attempt to meet with the school district’s IPM Manager, or a designated contact, for each inspection. A detailed follow-up report and resource materials will be provided for each school site. OCMVCD inspectors will also evaluate and address any potential vector sources that are adjacent to the campus. OCMVCD looks forward to developing a cooperative relationship with each school district and participating in the shared responsibility of managing potentially disease-causing vectors.

Operations staff is readying to rotate pesticide products in 2023. Pyroxylin, an insect growth regulator, has also been approved for use in Waters of the United States (WUS). This gives District staff more options for treating water bodies that eventually connect with natural bodies of water. New choices, and the regular rotation of pesticide active ingredients, prevents insecticide resistance, which is always a concern when there are only a limited number of public-health pesticides available on the market today.

Thanks,

CITY CLERK'S OFFICE
DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MARCIA BROWN, CMC, CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: CITY COUNCIL APPOINTMENTS TO ORGANIZATIONS, AGENCIES, AND

COMMITTEES

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that Council vote on the appointments to various organizations, agencies and committees as per the Mayor’s recommendations.

BACKGROUND

ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT
DATE: DECEMBER 20, 2022
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: DAVID CHRISTIAN, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT WITH FLOCK GROUP, INC. FOR AUTOMATIC LICENSE

PLATE READER CAMERAS

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve an agreement with Flock Group, Inc. (Flock Safety) in the amount of $114,600.00 for the installation and operation of 36 automatic license plate reader cameras throughout the City of Yorba Linda and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.

BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sheriff’s Department (OCSD) had requested earlier this year that the City consider purchasing automatic license plate reader cameras in order to improve the public safety services they provide to the community. Specifically, the cameras would enhance their ability to find stolen vehicles, find “persons of interest”, and conduct investigations. Because public safety has always been a top priority for the City of Yorba Linda, the Council approved a mid-term budget adjustment in June, 2022 for the acquisition of an automatic license plate reader camera system.

DISCUSSION
Flock Safety, a vendor based out of Atlanta, Georgia, provides a unique product for automatic license plate reader cameras. Flock Safety cameras do not just identify the license plate seen, but all the objects within the frame. Even if the vehicle does not have a tag, the image can be captured for review. What really makes their product unique is the user interface software. Their software provides a simple search of the database with unlimited user licenses. Within the software component, law enforcement can receive hotlist alerts and create custom alerts for plates under investigation. Flock Safety camera systems are live in over 600 cities in 38 states and over 210 police departments.

In Orange County, Flock Safety is currently being used by the cities of Anaheim, Buena Park, Dana Point, Fullerton, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, Lake Forest, Los Alamitos, San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano, Seal Beach and Stanton. In addition, many homeowner’s associations and random neighborhoods utilize Flock Safety cameras, some of which are within the City of Yorba Linda. Because all Flock Safety cameras operate on the same

READER CAMERAS
P a g e | 2
platform, this allows OCSD the ability to have a regional approach with regards to the use of the data and solving crimes. It should be noted that all data will be transmitted in encrypted form directly from the cameras to the cloud stored where it can be accessed only by law enforcement for a period of one year. Based on the above reasons, staff believes it is in the best interest of the City to forgo the competitive bidding process and award a contract to Flock Safety under the City’s sole source purchasing guidelines.

Staff from OCSD along with City staff have worked with Flock Safety to identify the various locations throughout the City that will best capture the ingress and egress of vehicles. In addition, most of the cameras will be mounted on existing City owned traffic or light poles and those that cannot, will be mounted on newly installed poles within the City’s right-ofway. The cameras are powered by solar energy and need no wiring to an existing power source and therefore can be installed in a relatively short period of time. Should Council approve this agreement, installation can begin right away after the permitting process is complete and should take only a couple of weeks to complete. It is anticipated that the system could be fully operational within a couple of months.

The agreement includes 36 automatic license plate reader cameras, at an annual subscription cost of $2,500 per year for each camera, as well as data storage costs of $300 per year for each camera for a total annual cost of $100,800. The one-time installation fee of $350 - $750 per camera will total $13,800. All maintenance, data hosting, and software access is included with the annual subscription cost. Therefore, the proposed costs are $114,600 for the first year and $100,800 for subsequent years. After the initial term, should the City wish not to renew the agreement, it may do so by providing a written notice 30 days prior to the end of the term. Otherwise, staff will continue to include an appropriate amount of funding in each year’s operating budget for Council to approve the annual renewal of the agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT
Sufficient funds have been appropriated in the current fiscal year budget. Staff will include sufficient funds in the upcoming two-year budget to complete the initial 12 month term as well as to maintain the annual renewals that will occur within that time frame.

ALTERNATIVES
Do not approve this agreement with Flock Safety and direct staff to investigate other public safety solutions or to prepare an RFP and bid the project.

ADDENDUM

CITY OF YORBA LINDA SUPPLEMENTAL CONDITIONS
For purposes of this Addendum to the Agreement between Flock Group, Inc. and the City of Yorba Linda, the term “Contractor” shall refer to Flock Group, Inc., and the term “City” shall be used to refer to the Customer, which is the City of Yorba Linda.

1. California Civil Code Compliance: Contractor is advised of, and agrees it will comply with the requirements of the California Civil Code, Division 3, Part 4, Title 1.81.23 COLLECTION OF LICENSE PLATE INFORMATION [§§1798.90.5 – 1798.90.55] as applicable to an automated license plate recognition (ALPR) operator (also referred to as an “ALPR operator”). Contractor shall maintain reasonable security procedures and practices to protect ALPR information from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification or disclosure that are at least as protective as the “Flock Safety End to End Data Security Overview,” “Flock Safety CJIS Compliance Overview,” and “Flock Safety Internet Security Policy,” (collectively, referred to as the “Flock Security Policies”) as each such policy was in effect as of January 29, 2020. Any amendment to the Flock Security Policies shall be transmitted to the City within 10 days. In the event the City determines in its sole discretion that any amendment to the Flock Security Policies either substantially reduces the privacy or security of Customer Content (including ALPR Footage) or the amendments would violate any State or Federal law, then the City shall have the right to terminate the Agreement and Flock will refund to City a pro-rata portion of the pre-paid Fees for Services not received due to such termination.

2. Disclosure of Security Breach: Contractor is advised of the requirements of the California Civil Code, section 1798.29, requiring notification to any resident of California in the event of breach of the security of the system. Contractor agrees it will notify the City immediately (and in no event more than 48 hours) upon the occurrence of any breach in the security of data that impacts the City directly and that may potentially trigger the need for security breach notification pursuant to Civil Code section 1798.29 or similar State or Federal law. The parties agree that the City will control the timing and content of any required security breach notification, and agree that Contractor shall fully pay or reimburse the City for the costs of providing any security breach notification required by Civil Code, section 1798.29, or similar State or Federal law, resulting from any security breach of the Flock Safety platform.

3. Indemnification: To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, defend with counsel reasonably acceptable to the City, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, contractors, contractors, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of or relating to any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or DocuSign Envelope ID: EFC97B4D-26EB-4C1E-AD51-E770BB773C07

Page 513 of 539 ends

agents. The foregoing obligation of Contractor shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, contractors, contractors, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under the contract does not relieve Contractor from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause is a material element of the Agreement and shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. This Section 3 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement. Contractor’s indemnification obligation pursuant to this Section shall not be limited by any disclaimer or limitation of liability in the Agreement, including but not limited to, Sections 2.1, 7.4 and 8 of the Government Agency Agreement.

4. Infringement: Without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 3, above, if a third party makes a claim against the City that any use of the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement infringes such third party’s intellectual property rights, Contractor, at its sole cost and expense, will defend City against the claim and indemnify City from the damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses awarded by the court to the third party claiming infringement or the settlement agreed to by Contractor, provided that City: (i) notifies Contractor promptly in writing of the claim; (ii) gives Contractor sole control of the defense and any settlement negotiations: and (iii) gives Contractor reasonable assistance in the defense of such claim. If Contractor believes or it is determined that the Services violated a third party’s intellectual property rights, Contractor may choose to either modify the Services to be non-infringing or obtain a license to allow for continued use, or if these alternatives are not commercially reasonable, Contractor may terminate City’s use rights and refund any unused, prepaid fees City may have paid to Contractor.

5. California Public Records Act Compliance: Notwithstanding Section 4 of the Government Agency Agreement, Contractor expressly understands that City is a public agency subject to the California Public Records Act (Cal. Government Code § 6250 et seq.). In the event that City receives a public records request seeking the disclosure of information that Contractor has designated as its “Proprietary Information,” City shall notify Contractor, and Contractor shall be allowed to take any reasonable action to preserve the confidentiality of such information. City’s obligation shall only extend to notifying Contractor of the request, and City shall have no obligation to preserve the confidentiality unless doing so is in full compliance with the law.

6. Independent Contractor: It is expressly agreed that Contractor is to perform the services described herein as an independent contractor pursuant to California Labor Code Section 3353.

Nothing contained herein shall in any way be construed to make Contractor or any of its agents or employees, an agent, employee or representative of the City. Contractor shall be entirely responsible for the compensation of any employees used by Contractor in providing said services.

Page 514 of 539 ends

7. Subcontractors: Notwithstanding Section 2.1 of the Government Agency Agreement, if Contractor utilizes a third-party subcontractor of other vendor to provide the Services under this Agreement, Contractor shall ensure that such subcontractor(s) or vendor(s) complies with the terms of this Agreement, and shall be jointly and severally liable with the subcontractor/vendor for any breach by the subcontractor/vendor.

8. Insurance: During the entire term of this Agreement and any extension or modification thereof, the Contractor shall keep in effect insurance policies meeting the following insurance requirements: See Exhibit A – Insurance Requirements.

9. Appropriation: City’s funding of this Agreement shall be on a fiscal year basis (July 1 to June 30) and is subject to annual appropriations. Contractor acknowledges that the City is a municipal corporation and is precluded by the California Constitution and other laws from entering into obligations that financially bind future governing bodies. Nothing in this Agreement shall constitute an obligation of future governing bodies to appropriate funds for the purposes of this Agreement. The parties agree that the Initial Term and any renewal term(s) is contingent upon the appropriation of funds by the City. This Agreement will terminate immediately if funds necessary to continue the Agreement are not appropriated. City shall pay Contractor for any services performed in accordance with this Agreement up to the date of termination.

10. Assignment: Contractor shall not assign this Agreement, or any part thereof, or any right of the Contractor hereunder without the prior written consent of the City. Notwithstanding, for purposes of this Contract, a merger, acquisition, reorganization, spin-off or other transaction involving a transfer of substantially all of the assets or common stock of either party hereto shall not be deemed an assignment.

Agency shall not be required to replace subsequently lost, damaged or stolen Flock Hardware, however, Agency understands and agrees that functionality, including Footage, will be materially affected due to such subsequently lost, damaged or stolen Flock Hardware and that Flock will have no liability to Agency regarding such affected functionality nor shall the Usage Fee or Implementation Fees owed be impacted.

acknowledge and agree that the essential purpose of this Section 8.2 is to allocate the risks under the No-Fee Term described in Section 6.4 and limit potential liability given the aforementioned complimentary service, which would have been substantially higher if Flock were to assume any further liability other than as set forth herein.
