Mr. Pankaj Mahajan, of Pacifica, indicated that the proposed users are stable and not susceptible to co-tenancy requirements. For 40,000 sq. ft. of space at the northern end of the site, Pacifica proposed an AutoZone including 6,000 sq. ft. of retail space and 34,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space. This user would serve as a warehouse hub for a number of retail AutoZone stores within a 50 mile radius. A 99 Cents Store and fitness/health user were also proposed to go next to the AutoZone. Pacifica indicated that the location of these users will free up parking for restaurants and other QSR users. Mr. Mahajan, also proposed monument style pylon for signage, in attempt to stay consistent with the Rialto Marketplace. Mr. Mahajan requested that the EDC consider the proposed users, and agree to move forward with the entitlement process. Gibson-Williams indicated that CDP requirement remains in question due the classification of the 99 Cent Store, and number of current locations within the City. Fire Chief Grayson indicated that he, staff and Pacifica have brainstormed ways to implement the new fire station on this site. He explained that staff is considering modular facility and temporary internal quarters in pre-determined storage space. Mr. Mahajan requested that staff member Gibson-Williams provide the requirements for making the AutoZone store an accessory use. Mrs. Gibson-Williams indicated that this store would not qualify as an accessory use.

EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Mayor Robertson inquired about the other AutoZone stores in Rialto and 5-10 mile radius. Mr. Mahajan indicated that there are 7 AutoZone stores within the City (3 in the City) and surrounding areas that can anticipate an increase in sales/service. Mayor Robertson also inquired if Pacifica is looking at LA Fitness for this site. Mr. Mr. Mahajan indicated that his team is still in communication with LA Fitness and other fitness/health users. The EDC inquired about the price point increase for 99 Cents Store and also requested that Pacific have a discussion with the owner regarding the upkeep and appearance of the outside of the store. Staff proposed that the owner be conditioned to keep up the cleanliness and outside of the property within their agreement. Mayor Robertson requested that staff and Pacifica analyze the potential traffic/truck impacts and determine a way to collect fees to offset the loss of point of sale with deliveries being transported to other stores. Mayor Pro Tem Scott indicated that he was not fond of the AutoZone proposal, because of the warehouse use within a commercial space.

D. RC Hobbs Zone Change at Sycamore & Randall Planning

Staff member Casey made note that the actual project location is Acacia Avenue and Randall Avenue. Mr. Randall Hobbs, founder of RC Hobbs presented information on the proposed single family dwelling community. Mr. Hobbs indicated that the 6-acre development will include 50 two-story homes, ranging from 1,600 to 2,200 sq. ft.; priced at $330,000 to $375,000 within FHA pricing limits. He noted this development would be the same size product as the residential development approved on Bloomington Avenue and Willow Avenue. Staff indicated that this project is still in the preliminary stages, still requiring a community meeting, EDC, Planning Commission and City Council approval. EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Mayor Robertson indicated her concern that the residential development does not include any single-story options. She requested that Hobbs reconfigure the concept and present at least 6 single-story homes within the development (1 for each 1-acre). Mr. Hobbs indicated that the re-configuring the site to include a single story option may not be the best for home square footage and overall density of the site. He added that there will be an option that includes the master bedroom and bathroom on the main floor; however, he would give the Mayor’s request some thought and try to commit 10% of the community homes to single-story.

E. CDRE Partners Concept for Baseline and Tamarind Mr. Mark Bauchley of Compass Danhbe Real Estate Partners (CDRE), presented information on a proposed zone change in the Renaissance Specific Plan. Mr. Bauchley proposed the construction of a warehouse on the corner of Baseline Avenue and Tamarind Avenue. Mr. Bauchley requested consideration and feedback from the EDC on the impact of Employment zoning on smaller industrial developments. He noted that Employment zoning favors larger industrial developments, and that there are a number of smaller industrial developments that are impacted negatively due to the zoning. He proposed that the impact areas be re-zoned to business center to support the economic feasibility of smaller industrial sites. Mr. Bauchley indicated that there are two current projects within the affected area: (1) E Baseline Road and Palmetto Avenue, and (2) E Baseline Road and Tamarind Avenue; both projects are in escrow. Mr. Bauchley also presented the option to re-zone the indicated area or re-zone the entire area. Staff member Williams-Gibson added that as long as the development standards are met, there is the option to stack FIR density bonuses to achieve a greater density (maximum of 6). Mr. Bauchley noted that this this approach would not be feasible for him, due to the inability to amortize the cost. Staff member/CA Story noted that onsite detention or underground will be required regardless of the size.

Mrs. Gibson-Williams suggested that because Mr. Bauchley does not own all areas in question that the table be altered, as opposed to the zoning of the area. This involves proposing the change to City Council. EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Mayor Robertson inquired about the vision of the use of the proposed re-zoned area. Mr. Bauchley indicated that the industrial usage will remain unchanged, but allow for a smaller building. Mayor Robertson inquired if staff had considered conditioning the agreement to require the developer to implement items such as electrical charge stations. Mayor Robertson also expressed her desire to allow for the possibility of commercial/retail developments within the business area. The EDC advised this item be presented to with the change in table in September. Mrs. Gibson-Williams added that this item would be presented without the site plan.

Page 9: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

Mr. Eisenbeisz added that this also gives the City the opportunity to add some beautification to the street.

Mayor Pro Tem Scott added the suggestion of placing a no left turn sign at the adjacent shopping center.

F. Bloomington Median Construction Phasing PW

Staff member Eisenbeisz indicated that there are two options, the first being the construction of a portion of the median, and other involving the phasing of the entire length of the median. Staff member, Amy Crow presented the details for this project. Ms. Crow made note of the beautification aspect of the median. The estimated cost of construction from Riverside Avenue to Willow Avenue is $219,540. Mr. Eisenbeisz indicated that staff would reject all current bids, which were submitted for the construction of a portion of the median, and move forward with another RFB. EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Mayor Pro Tem Scott indicated that he would prefer not to see wood chips in the median. He suggested that staff look into other options. Mayor Robertson added her suggestion to use rubber chips, which allow for the use of the Cities recycle funds. Mayor Robertson inquired about the possibility of offering the median construction to RC Hobbs in exchange for not be required to implement a one story option.

G. Metrolink Station – Double Track Locally Preferred Selection & Parking Expansion Concepts Staff member Eisenbeisz presented a brief description of the projects; indicating 5 alternatives for the parking lot expansion, and requesting a recommendation from the EDC on both the parking expansion and proposed passenger methods of access. Staff recommended for staff to proceed with alternative 1 for train access (constructing an undercrossing tunnel under the train tracks with stairways and ramps on both sides of the tracks). Staff also recommended that alternative 4 be chosen for the parking expansion, as it causes no threat or imposition to others. This alternative is the most feasible and generates the largest number of spaces (257). EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: The EDC recommended to staff and to move forward with the underpass option, making it cost effective and creating flexible access on either side. The EDC also concurred with moving forward with alternative 4 for the parking lot expansion. Mayor Robertson suggested that staff look into implementing permitted parking for the parking spaces closest to the station as a way to generate funding. Mayor Robertson inquired about the project timeline. Staff member, Eisenbeisz indicated that he would put together the timeline and cost for moving forward for the next EDC meeting.

Mayor Pro Tem Scott requested that staff look into the possibility of putting a commercial/ restaurant user on the property facing the street front. Mayor Robertson also proposed public art be implemented to the walls as the area developments.

H. Phase II Good Energy Financial Analysis PW/Fin

Staff member Eisenbeisz presented an update on the Community Choice Aggregation Program (CCA) per the request of Mayor Robertson. Mayor Robertson requested that Mr. Eisenbeisz and Contract Financial Officer, Cheng provide an explanation for their advice to no longer move forward with this project. Mr. Eisenbeisz indicated that his biggest consideration and concern is the cost versus the savings aspect. He added his concern for that fact that the City does not have the expertise in utilities aggregation, making the City solely dependent on outside consultants. Contract Staff Cheng added that she and Mr. Eisenbeisz posed several questions to Good Energy in effort to make an informed and sound recommendation to the EDC and City Council. Ms. Cheng also noted that her concern and recommendation stemmed from a City finance point of view. Good Energy presented answers to the questions posed by City staff. They indicated that City residents spend an estimated $30 million per year on energy; the savings is roughly 10% or $3 million per year for a combination of the City, business and residents. This savings in not guaranteed, however does create the option for the future. Good Energy indicated that the City of Apple Valley and the City of Lancaster are fully implemented, Riverside County is moving forward with implementation, the City of Fontana completed the feasibility study and opted not to move forward and SANBAG considered this and decided not to move forward. There are also several other communities within Los Angeles County and Orange County that have decided to remove forward with CCA. Good Energy indicated that there are administrative costs and cash flow management costs, totaling 3-4 percent of the total cost of the program. EDC COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: Mayor Robertson inquired about the effect of this on residents or business owners, should they decide to move forward with this option. Good Energy indicated that the “spend” would be lower for the resident/business owner, and if the City chooses, their rate may also be lowered. Mayor Robertson inquired about the effect this program would have on solar customers. Good Energy indicated that the CCA does not affect the delivery portion of the bill, which is how solar operates. Mr. Eisenbeisz added that setting the rate could make the deal revenue neutral. Mayor Robertson inquired about how the required funding of $325,000 is expected to be paid. Good Energy explained that this is answer, as well as the answer to many other questions would be addressed in phase II and III of the process. The $20,000 paid was for the initial study.

V. Agency Updates None.

V. Upcoming Meetings (Day & Time)/Other Discussion Items

Mayor Robertson requested an update on the recent roof collapse on an industrial construction site. She also requested that the City Council be briefed on the course of action with these types of incidents.

VI. Adjournment Meeting adjourned at 5:20 p.m.

Mayor Robertson questioned how CCA becomes a benefit to the City for revenue generation or revenue neutral. Good Energy indicated that there are many ways to explore revenue generation outside of the rate. Ms. Cheng inquired about the timeline for cost recovery, as well as if there is a fee charged for opting out. Good Energy indicated that it varies by City, however, City of Riverside was projected at three years for cost recovery. Mr. Eisenbeisz inquired about the costs associated with ending the program. Good Energy indicated that there would be no cost based on the conditions and flexibility of the agreement. Mayor Robertson inquired about the possibility of requiring new businesses to use the utility company of the Cities choice. Good Energy indicated that it’s the Cities decision and under the Cities control. The EDC advised staff to prepare to move forward with phase II and present at the August 8, 2017 City Council meeting. Ms. Cheng and Mr. Eisenbeisz agreed to prepare the report.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION:

Project ProposalR.C. Hobbs Company, Inc. proposes to subdivide the project site into a 50-lot single-familysubdivision (6.80 acres) and two remainder lots (1.61 acres) (Exhibit B). The proposed density ofthe project is 7.35 dwelling units per acre. Lot sizes for the new single-family lots range fromapproximately 3,160 square feet to 7,020 square feet, with an average lot size of about 3,400 squarefeet. The lots have depths between 73.5 feet and 84.5 feet, and widths between 43 feet and 60 feet.The applicant proposes four distinct plan types - Plans 1, 2, 3, and 4 and reverses footprints for atotal of eight footprints. Plans 1, 2, and 3 are two-stories in height, and Plan 4 is one-story in height.The floor area of these plans will range from 1,600 square feet to approximately 2,300 square feet.Each house will feature between three to five bedrooms, two to three and one-half bathrooms, a two-car garage, a kitchen, and living areas.

Project DesignA new private street, connected directly to Randall Avenue, will provide access to all 50 lots.Residents will have access to approximately 25,052 square feet of common open space primarily atthe entrance of the project site, though also at the north end as well. The applicant has not yetspecified the amenities proposed for the common open space other than a trellis shade structurepresumably for a picnic/bbq area. Five (5) dedicated parking spaces will accommodate guests of theresidents, while the interior private streets are wide enough to accommodate parking along one sideof the street throughout the entire site. A four-foot wide sidewalk will also be provided on both sidesof the private street to provide walkability throughout the subdivision. Finally, the subdivision isplanned to be gated and enclosed with a six-foot high masonry wall to provide exclusivity to theresidents.

Architectural design of the proposed product has not been finalized, pending direction and arecommendation on the project from the EDC. However, the applicant provided sample floor plansand elevations (Exhibits C) to demonstrate the type of homes that would be built on-site. Theexterior of the product shown is consistent with typical single-family residential structures.

Design and Technical CommentsThe Development Review Committee will provide comprehensive design and technical commentsafter submittal of a formal application. The Planning Division offers the following preliminarycomments:

1. A primary goal of the design should be to provide connectivity to the remainder lots to allow forfuture incorporation into the subdivision. The drive-aisle termini at lots 4 and 15 should stubout at the project site boundary to provide future connection of all remainder lots. A SiteUtilization Map should be provided to better demonstrate future connectivity.

2. Per Section 18.58.060B(2) of the Rialto Municipal Code, developments within the Multi-FamilyResidential (R-3) zone shall provide one guest parking space for every four dwelling units.This equates to a requirement of thirteen guest parking spaces for the project. Only five guestparking spaces are provided in the current proposal. The site design needs to be revised toprovide the required amount of guest parking.

3. The current design provides street widths of thirty-four (34) feet curb to curb. This street widthwill only allow for parking on one side of the street in order to provide adequate emergencyaccess. A street width of thirty-six (36) feet will accommodate parking on both sides of the

access. A street width of thirty-six (36) feet will accommodate parking on both sides of thestreet. The lot depths on each side of each street should be reduced by one foot, and thestreet widths should be increased to thirty-six (36) feet. Parking on both sides of the street, inaddition to the required guest parking, will prevent parking from spilling outside of thedevelopment.

4. The lot depths of all lots adjacent to Randall Avenue and Acacia Avenue should be reduced byfive feet. The excess five (5) feet should be incorporated into a common landscape planternext to the sidewalk adjacent to the street side parking. This will provide a buffer between therear fence lines of the lots and the public right-of-way.

Zone Change & General Plan AmendmentPer Section 18.08.030A of the Rialto Municipal Code, the minimum lot size allowed in the A-1 zone isone acre, while the Residential 2 with an Animal Overlay general plan designation limits developmentof the project site to a maximum of two dwelling units per acre. Thus, the current zoning and generalplan designations cannot accommodate the proposed subdivision.

In order to develop the proposed subdivision, the developer will be required to apply for a ZoneChange and a General Plan Amendment. A zoning designation of Multi-Family Residential (R-3) anda general plan designation of Residential 12 (6.1 - 12.0 du/ac) are the most logical designations toaccommodate the proposal. Even though the R-3 zone is titled “Multi-Family Residential”, it will allowfor the development of a single-family residential subdivision with the applicant’s desired density.Alternatively, a zoning designation of Planned Residential Development-Detached (PRD-D) couldalso be used to accommodate a single-family subdivision. The PRD-D zone allows for the small lotsizes proposed by the applicant, however the PRD-D zone requires substantially more common openspace than the R-3 zone. Specifically, the PRD-D requires 47,393 square feet of common openspace for this project compared to only 20,000 square feet in the R-3 zone. The common openspace requirement of the PRD-D zone would ultimately require the applicant to significantly reducethe density below what is currently proposed.

Neighborhood MeetingOn August 30, 2017, the Planning Division held a neighborhood meeting to introduce the project tothe public. The meeting took place at Morris Elementary School located at 1900 W. Randall Avenue,Colton, CA, which is immediately to the southeast of the project site. Staff mailed flyers (Exhibit D)to all seventy-seven property owners within 300 feet of the project site. Eight (8) members of thepublic attended the meeting. The attendance sheet and comment cards received are attached to thisreport (Exhibits E & F). The project was generally well received by the attendees. The main issueof concern centered on existing traffic issues in the area created by traffic going to and from MorrisElementary School in the morning and early afternoon. Staff and the applicant’s representativesaddressed the audience’s comments at the meeting by explaining that the applicant will prepare aTraffic Impact Analysis report and will coordinate with the Rialto Unified School District during thedevelopment review process. The Applicant will improve Randall Avenue to its full widthimprovement standard, consisting of two travel lanes in each direction with on-street parking.

TO: Honorable Economic Development Committee Members

APPROVAL: Robb R. Steel, Assistant CA/Development Services Director

FROM: Lynn Merrill, Lynn Merrill & Associates

Provide Direction into the Scope of Work for the Public Facilities Master Planning and FinancialForecasting Services Request for Qualifications.BACKGROUND:The City of Rialto has undergone significant growth since the City constructed the existing CivicCenter in 1961 and the Police Department in 1965. Technology advancements, changes in demandfor municipal services, recreational opportunities coupled with outdated facilities have limited theCity’s ability to deliver services. As the City continues to grow, the need to identify future publicfacility needs and funding is critical for the City to provide services.

In 2016, staff from the various departments prepared a draft Request for Qualifications (RFQ) toretain a qualified professional planning and design services for new facilities and infrastructuremaster and financing plan (Master Plan) within the City. The scope of work stated that:

“The selected firm shall be responsible for identifying specific community needs as it relates to the civiccenter, including the existing police, fire and general government buildings, parks and recreationfacilities including new parks as well as renovation of existing parks, and other public safety, andgeneral government facilities located throughout the city. The City is anticipating that the resultingmaster plan will be based on full build-out of the city, and will include an assessment of the existing cityfacilities to identify any deficiencies as it relates to public health, safety, environment and welfare, aswell as compliance with disability access, energy conservation, water conservation, and currentenvironmental regulations.

The proposed master plan will also include a 20-year budgeting and financing component that will beCity of Rialto Printed on 9/22/2017Page 1 of 3

File #: 17-884, Version: 1

The proposed master plan will also include a 20-year budgeting and financing component that will beused by the City to program the necessary funding to accomplish the implementation of the MasterPlan. The budgeting and financing plan shall include, but not be limited to, the use of DevelopmentImpact Fees, User Fees, Bonds, Infrastructure Financing mechanisms or other funding approaches.The City desires to lay out an appropriate methodology in order to accomplish implementation of theMaster Plan over the twenty year period, including anticipation of schedule of work associated with thedesign, development, and construction of the identified infrastructure.”

In May 2016, staff presented the attach draft RFQ (Attachment A) to the Economic DevelopmentCommittee for consideration. The EDC expressed a desire to include more financing options,including public and private development, and concerns regarding fee impacts. For various reasons,staff delayed RFQ finalization.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION:During the May 2016 EDC meeting, the EDC expressed concerned regarding the timing andnecessity for this study. Several issues have converged to emphasize the importance of this issue:

1. In January 2017, a major wind event caused an area-wide power outage resulting indisruptions to Police Department operations that required relocating certain operations outsidethe main police building.

2. Existing facilities for public services such as Development Services, Finance, andAdministration have outgrown existing civic center buildings. These buildings will need majorupgrades to continue functioning that include air handling systems for technology support,electrical demands from additional technology, and changing staffing needs.

3. Recreational facilities beyond those in current design and planning will be needed to serve thechanging needs of the community. Some areas of the City may not be well served byneighborhood facilities.

4. Remodeling and upgrades, while individually addressing problems within City facilities, do notaddress the functional obsolescence. For example, installation of ADA measures or upgradedrestroom facilities improves the current usability, but do not address the aging water, sewer,and other backbone functions. These approaches extend the service life or addressimmediate problems but ignore the core functionality needs.

5. Without adequate planning and financing documents, the City may not be able to supportupdated Development Impact Fees or apply for any State or Federal Infrastructure Grants.

6. The City cannot generally use development impact fees to correct existing deficiencies, andthe City needs to identify alternate funding for that portion of many facility improvements. The10-year financial plan underway will incorporate a capital outlay component in the operatingbudget to allocate funding for these unfunded improvements.

The City recently updated its General Plan; this document is incorporated by reference into this RFP and shall serve as a supporting document for the development of the Master Plan. A copy of the General Plan may be downloaded from the City’s website at: http://www.rialtoca.gov/development_4598.php Potential submitters are further encouraged to review the various specific plans that the City has adopted for various locations in order to fully understand the projected growth and development throughout the city, as well as proposed new facilities and parks which will be included within those specific plans. SCOPE OF WORK The City of Rialto invites qualified firms (CONSULTANTS) to submit a response to the Request for Proposal. The City understands that this effort is multi-year and multi-facetted in its approach, and that the selected Consultant or Consultant Team will become a strategic partner with the City to achieve the results contemplated under the Project. The City believes that this effort is an exciting approach in order to ensure that the needs of immediate and future residents will be met with a proactive, creative and visionary plan to create community facilities that are able to serve the needs for the next 100 years. The City intends to update its development impact fee schedule for essential governmental administrative facilities, by creating a Facility Master Plan for police, fire, public works, and

Page 39: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

RFP #15-XXX Page 4

general government (Finance, Administration, Development Services, etc.) services. The scope of work does not include parks, open space, or other governmental utility systems commonly included in development impact fee programs. A Facility Master Plan provides critical input into the economic model establishing fair share fees for new development. The City expects to realize substantial one-time revenues for capital facility construction and seeks a rational program for allocating limited resources to the highest priority projects and ensuring that the City maintains adequate public facilities and services at community build out. The Scope of Work includes:

Community Visioning And Demographics. The qualified firm shall conduct a detailed assessment of the current and future public facility needs of the community by securing input from the various stakeholders. Typical techniques used would include one-on-one interviews with key senior management and elected officials, focus group interviews, public workshops, or surveys of various stakeholder groups. The qualified firm should develop a forecast of service population growth (residents and employees), demographic and socio-economic changes to create a profile of the City’s build out character and facility demands. The consultant may use existing studies (e.g. General Plan) and regional experts to support the visioning. The product of this effort should provide the foundation for the development of the facility needs assessment and eventually the apportionment of costs to new development.

Facility Needs Assessment. The qualified firm should convert the community visioning

and profile analysis into a comprehensive governmental facility plan which identifies existing and future staffing levels in the various departments such as Administration, Administrative Services, City Clerk, Community Services, Development Services, Fire, Police, Recreation, Treasurer, and Public Works. This effort shall evaluate the current space utilization in each department, and establish standards and recommendations for staff workspaces, common areas, storage, and ancillary facilities at City build-out. The Consultant shall then contrast the projected build out facility inventory with the existing facility inventory, and identify the facility voids. This should include evaluation of the existing facility inventory for obsolescence and or inefficiencies. The product deliverable is a report and presentation outlining the City’s existing and future facility needs at build out under the General Plan.

Facility Master Plan. Based on the first two reports, the Consultant shall prepare a

formal Facility Master Plan. This plan shall provide, among other things, the potential building square footage or land acreage for each facility, available existing City-owned or controlled properties that may be suitable for use for the various facilities; other properties or locations that may be suitable for acquisition by the City for proposed facilities; and other information establishing a comprehensive master plan. The plan should consider the expected future demands for services, the service area centroids for various facilities, and based on current City standards or best management practices, the parking facilities, landscaped areas and other features that should be incorporated into the facilities. The Consultant should consider facility security, energy and water usage, low impact development principles and practices, transportation and commuting demands, and other state-of-the art requirements for the design and performance of civic buildings and facilities. The Consultant should develop conceptual site plans and

RFP #15-XXX Page 5

renderings of various approaches that might form the design basis for the governmental facilities.

Financing Plan. The Consultant shall prepare a twenty-year schedule for

implementation of the Facility Master Plan. This implementation schedule shall include timelines for when facilities should become operational to satisfy service requirements. The Financing Plan should estimate costs for each facility. An annual financing plan shall be prepared identifying the amount of funds needed each fiscal year in order to achieve the objectives of the Facility Master Plan. All future costs should be projected using acceptable accounting and forecasting methods.

Presentations and Technical Support. The Consultant shall provide approaches for ensuring that all of the City staff, elected officials, and others are constantly updated regarding the development process for the entire project. Consultant should propose how they shall maintain open lines of communication through formal and informal presentations to the City Council, various commissions, and public throughout the process.

In developing a submission to this RFP, consultants should assemble teams that are able to be forward thinking in their vision, while being rigorous and thorough in their planning and cost processes. The City believes that this creates a unique opportunity to forward plan the city facilities in such a way that it becomes something that future residents can be proud of. The effort needs to compliment the city’s General Plan, various specific plans and other studies in order to ensure an integrated and well-planned approach to meeting the needs of the community. Consultants that can best integrate and express this effort, while providing excitement and creativity will be strongly considered.

4. PROPOSAL REQUIREMENTS: The firm’s proposal should describe the methodology to be used to accomplish each of the project tasks. The proposal should also describe the work which shall be necessary in order to satisfactorily complete the task requirements. Please note: this RFP cannot identify each specific, individual task required to successfully and completely implement this project. The City of Rialto relies on the professionalism and competence of the selected firm to be knowledgeable of the general areas identified in the scope of work and to include in its proposal all required tasks and subtasks, personnel commitments, man-hours, direct and indirect costs, etc. The City of Rialto will not approve addenda to the selected firm’s agreement which do not involve a substantial change from the general scope of work identified in this RFP. 5. SELECTION PROCESS: The City of Rialto is utilizing a Qualifications Based Selection process to select a firm to provide the services requested by this RFP. The City shall review the proposals submitted in reply to this RFP, and a limited number of firms may be invited to make a formal presentation at a future date. The format, selection criteria and date of the presentation will be established at the time of short listing. Preparation of proposals in reply to this RFP, and participation in any future presentation is at the sole expense of the firms responding to this RFP. 6. PROPOSAL EVALUATION CRITERIA: This solicitation has been developed in the “Request for Proposals” (RFP) format. Accordingly, firms should take note that the City will consider multiple criteria in selecting the most qualified firm. Consistent with Federal, State and local laws for the acquisition of professional services, price is NOT an evaluation criteria. Cost proposals submitted in separate sealed envelopes are not opened, nor considered during proposal evaluations. Upon selection of the most qualified firm, the associated cost proposal will be used as a basis for contract negotiations. A contract shall be negotiated on the basis of the submitted Cost Proposal, and in consideration of reasonable and mutually agreed upon project costs and time requirements. Should successful negotiations not occur with the highest ranked firm, the City may, at its sole discretion, choose to enter into negotiations with the second highest ranked firm, and so on. PRIOR CITY WORK: If your firm has prior experience working with the City DO NOT assume this prior work is known to the evaluation committee. All firms are evaluated solely on the information contained in their proposal, information obtained from references, and presentations if requested. All proposals must be prepared as if the evaluation committee has no knowledge of the firm, their qualifications or past projects. Firms are requested to submit their proposals so that they correspond to and are identified with the following specific evaluation criteria: A. Project Understanding (25 POINTS): The firm’s proposal adequately demonstrates an understanding of the Project and familiarity with the project area; and provides a well thought out approach and methodology to accomplishing the project.

Staff Qualifications (25 POINTS): Qualifications of the staff assigned to manage and provide services related to the Project; experience with developing and implementing long term facilities planning processes, cost and budget estimates and community involvement.

The Maximum Contract Amount shall include the attendance of Consultant at all Project meetings reasonably deemed necessary by the City. Consultant shall not be entitled to any increase in the Maximum Contract Amount for attending these meetings. Consultant hereby acknowledges that it accepts the risk that the services identified in the Scope of Services may be more costly and/or time-consuming than Consultant anticipates, that Consultant shall not be entitled to additional compensation therefore, and that the provisions of Section 1.8 shall not be applicable to the services identified in the Scope of Services. The maximum amount of city’s payment obligation under this section is the amount specified herein. If the City’s maximum payment obligation is reached before the Consultant’s Services under this Agreement are completed, consultant shall nevertheless complete the Work without liability on the City’s part for further payment beyond the Maximum Contract Amount. 2.2 Method of Payment. Unless some other method of payment is specified in the Schedule of Compensation (Exhibit “D”), in any month in which Consultant wishes to receive payment, no later than the tenth (10) working day of such month, Consultant shall submit to the City, in a form approved by the Contract Officer, an invoice for services rendered prior to the date of the invoice. Such requests shall be based upon the amount and value of the services performed by Consultant and accompanied by such reporting data including an itemized breakdown of all costs incurred and tasks performed during the period covered by the invoice, as may be required by the City. City shall use reasonable efforts to make payments to Consultant within thirty (30) days after receipt of the invoice or a soon thereafter as is reasonably practical. There shall be a maximum of one payment per month. 2.3 Changes in Scope. In the event any change or changes in the Scope of Services is requested by the City or Consultant, the Parties shall execute a written amendment to this Agreement, setting forth with particularity all terms of such amendment, including, but not limited to, any additional professional fees. An amendment shall be entered into: (a) to provide for revisions or modifications to documents or other work product or work when documents or other work product or work is required by the enactment or revision of law subsequent to the preparation of any documents, other work product, or work; and/or (b) to provide for additional services not included in this Agreement or not customarily furnished in accordance with generally accepted practice in Consultant’s profession. 2.4 Appropriations. This Agreement is subject to and contingent upon funds being appropriated therefore by the Rialto City Council for each fiscal year covered by the Agreement. If such appropriations are not made, this Agreement shall automatically terminate without penalty to the City. 3. SCHEDULE OF PERFORMANCE

Consultant shall prosecute regularly and diligently the Work of this Agreement according to the agreed upon Schedule of Performance (Exhibit “E). 3.2 Schedule of Performance.

When requested by Consultant, extensions to the time period(s) specified in the Schedule of Performance may be approved in writing by the Contract Officer, but such extensions shall not exceed one hundred eighty (180) days cumulatively; however, the City shall not be obligated to grant such an extension. 3.3 Force Majeure. The time period(s) specified in the Schedule of Performance for performance of the Services rendered pursuant to this Agreement shall be extended because of any delays due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Consultant (financial inability excepted), including, but not limited to, acts of God or of the public enemy, unusually severe weather, fires, earthquakes, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, riots, strikes, freight embargoes, wars, and/or acts of any governmental agency, including the City, if Consultant, within ten (10) days of the commencement of such delay, notifies the City Administrator in writing of the causes of the delay. The City Administrator shall ascertain the facts and the extent of delay, and extend the time for performing the Services for the period of the enforced delay when and if in the judgment of the City Administrator such delay is justified. The City Administrator's determination shall be final and conclusive upon the Parties to this Agreement. In no event shall Consultant be entitled to recover damages against the City for any delay in the performance of this Agreement, however caused, Consultant's sole remedy being extension of the Agreement pursuant to this section. 3.4 Term. Unless earlier terminated as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall commence upon the effective date of this Agreement and continue in full force and effect until completion of the Services, as provided in the Schedule of Performance (Exhibit “E”) and pursuant to Section 3.2 above, unless extended by mutual written agreement of the Parties. 3.5 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term. City may terminate this Agreement for its convenience at any time, without cause, in whole or in part, upon giving Consultant thirty (30) days written notice. Where termination is due to the fault of Consultant and constitutes an immediate danger to health, safety, and general welfare, the period of notice shall be such shorter time as may be determined by the City. Upon such notice, City shall pay Consultant for Services performed through the date of termination. Upon receipt of such notice, Consultant shall immediately cease all work under this Agreement, unless stated otherwise in the notice or by written authorization of the Contract Officer. After such notice, Consultant shall have no further claims against the City under this Agreement. Upon termination of the Agreement under this section, Consultant shall submit to the City an invoice for work and services performed prior to the date of termination. Consultant may terminate this Agreement, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days written notice to the City, except that where termination is due to material default by the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine. 4.

The Contract Officer shall have authority to sign all documents on behalf of the City required hereunder to carry out the terms of this Agreement. 4.3 Prohibition Against Subcontracting or Assignments.

If Consultant is permitted to subcontract any part of this Agreement by City, Consultant shall be responsible to City for the acts and omissions of its subcontractor(s) in the same manner as it is for persons directly employed. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationships between any subcontractor and City. All persons engaged in the Scope of Services will be considered employees of Consultant. City will deal directly with and will make all payments to Consultant. In addition, neither this Agreement nor any interest herein may be transferred, assigned, conveyed, hypothecated, or encumbered voluntarily or by operation of law, whether for the benefit of creditors or otherwise, without the prior written consent of City. Transfers restricted hereunder shall include the transfer to any person or group of persons acting in concert of more than twenty five percent (25%) of the present ownership and/or control of Consultant, taking all transfers into account on a cumulative basis. In the event of any such unapproved transfer, including any bankruptcy proceeding, this Agreement shall be void. No approved transfer shall release Consultant or any surety of Consultant from any liability hereunder without the express written consent of City. 4.4 Independent Contractor. A. The legal relationship between the Parties is that of an independent contractor, and nothing herein shall be deemed to make Consultant a City employee. During the performance of this Agreement, Consultant and its officers, employees, and agents shall act in an independent capacity and shall not act as City officers or employees. The personnel performing the Services under this Agreement on behalf of Consultant shall at all times be under Consultant’s exclusive direction and control. Neither City nor any of its officers, employees, or agents shall have control over the conduct of Consultant or any of its officers, employees, or agents, except as set forth in this Agreement. Consultant, its officers, employees, or agents shall not maintain an office or any other type of fixed business location at City’s offices.

B. Consultant shall not incur or have the power to incur any debt, obligation, or liability against City, or bind City in any manner. C. No City benefits shall be available to Consultant, its officers, employees, or agents in connection with any performance under this Agreement. Except for professional fees paid to Consultant as provided for in this Agreement, City shall not pay salaries, wages, or other compensation to Consultant for the performance of the Scope of Services under this Agreement. City shall not be liable for compensation or indemnification to Consultant, its officers, employees, or agents, for injury or sickness arising out of performing the Scope of Services hereunder. 5. INSURANCE 5.1 Types of Insurance. Consultant shall procure and maintain, at its sole cost and expense, in a form and content satisfactory to City, the insurance described herein for the duration of this Agreement, including any extension thereof, or as otherwise specified herein, against claims which may arise from or in connection with the performance of the Scope of Services hereunder by Consultant, its agents, representatives, or employees. In the event the City Administrator determines that the Scope of Services to be performed under this Agreement creates an increased or decreased risk of loss to the City, the Consultant agrees that the minimum limits of the insurance policies may be changed accordingly upon receipt of written notice from the City Administrator or his designee. Consultant shall immediately substitute any insurer whose A.M. Best rating drops below the levels specified herein. Except as otherwise authorized below for professional liability (errors and omissions) insurance, all insurance provided pursuant to this Agreement shall be on an occurrence basis. The minimum amount of insurance required hereunder shall be as follows: A. Errors and Omissions Insurance. Consultant shall obtain and maintain in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, standard industry form professional liability (errors and omissions) insurance coverage in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) per occurrence and two-million dollars ($2,000,000.00) annual aggregate, in accordance with the provisions of this section. (1) Consultant shall either: (a) certify in writing to the City that Consultant is unaware of any professional liability claims made against Consultant and is unaware of any facts which may lead to such a claim against Consultant; or (b) if Consultant does not provide the certification pursuant to (a), Consultant shall procure from the professional liability insurer an endorsement providing that the required limits of the policy shall apply separately to claims arising from errors and omissions in the rendition of services pursuant to this Agreement. (2) If the policy of insurance is written on a “claims made” basis, the policy shall be continued in full force and effect at all times during the term of this Agreement, and for a period of three (3) years from the date of the completion of the Services provided hereunder. In the event of termination of the policy during this period, Consultant shall obtain continuing insurance coverage for the prior acts or omissions of Consultant during the course of performing Services under the terms of this Agreement. The coverage shall be evidenced by either a new policy evidencing no gap in coverage, or by obtaining separate extended “tail” coverage with the present or new carrier or other insurance arrangements providing for complete coverage, either of which shall be subject to the written approval by the City Administrator. (3) In the event the policy of insurance is written on an “occurrence” basis, the policy shall be continued in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement, or until completion of the Services provided for in this Agreement, whichever is later. In the event of termination of the policy

Page 58: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

Page 7 of 21

during this period, new coverage shall immediately be obtained to ensure coverage during the entire course of performing the Services under the terms of this Agreement. B. Workers’ Compensation Insurance. Consultant shall obtain and maintain, in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, workers’ compensation insurance in at least the minimum statutory amounts, and in compliance with all other statutory requirements, as required by the State of California. Consultant agrees to waive and obtain endorsements from its workers’ compensation insurer waiving subrogation rights under its workers’ compensation insurance policy against the City and to require each of its subcontractors, if any, to do likewise under their workers’ compensation insurance policies. If Consultant has no employees, Consultant shall complete the City’s Request for Waiver of Workers’ Compensation Insurance Requirement form. C. Commercial General Liability Insurance. Consultant shall obtain and maintain, in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a policy of commercial general liability insurance written on a per occurrence basis with a combined single limit of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) and two million dollars ($2,000,000.00) general aggregate for bodily injury and property damage including coverages for contractual liability, personal injury, independent contractors, broad form property damage, products and completed operations. D. Business Automobile Insurance. Consultant shall obtain and maintain, in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a policy of business automobile liability insurance written on a per occurrence basis with a single limit liability in the amount of one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) bodily injury and property damage. The policy shall include coverage for owned, non-owned, leased, and hired cars. E. Employer Liability Insurance. Consultant shall obtain and maintain, in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement, a policy of employer liability insurance written on a per occurrence basis with a policy limit of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000.00) for bodily injury or disease. 5.2 Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City Administrator prior to commencing any work or services under this Agreement. Consultant guarantees payment of all deductibles and self-insured retentions. City reserves the right to reject deductibles or self-insured retentions in excess of $10,000, and the City Administrator may require evidence of pending claims and claims history as well as evidence of Consultant’s ability to pay claims for all deductible amounts and self-insured retentions proposed in excess of $10,000. 5.3 Other Insurance Requirements. The following provisions shall apply to the insurance policies required of Consultant pursuant to this Agreement: 5.3.1 For any claims related to this Agreement, Consultant’s coverage shall be primary insurance as respects City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be in excess of Consultant’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. 5.3.2 Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies, including breaches of warranties, shall not affect coverage provided to City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers.

Page 59: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

Page 8 of 21

5.3.3 All insurance coverage and limits provided by Consultant and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to each insured, including additional insureds, against whom a claim is made or suit is brought to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations shall limit the application of such insurance coverage. 5.3.4 None of the insurance coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement which substantially impairs the coverages set forth herein (e.g., elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period), unless the endorsement has first been submitted to the City Administrator and approved in writing. 5.3.5 Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify insurance endorsements to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the endorsements. Certificates of insurance will not be accepted in lieu of required endorsements, and submittal of certificates without required endorsements may delay commencement of the Project. It is Consultant’s obligation to ensure timely compliance with all insurance submittal requirements as provided herein. 5.3.6 Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other parties involved with the Project who are brought onto or involved in the Project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the Project will be submitted to the City for review. 5.3.7 Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 5.3.8 Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. Endorsements as required in this Agreement applicable to the renewing or new coverage shall be provided to City no later than ten (10) days prior to expiration of the lapsing coverage. 5.3.9 Requirements of specific insurance coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 5.3.10 The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this section. 5.3.11 Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the Scope of Services performed under this Agreement and for any other claim or loss which may reduce the insurance available to pay claims arising out of this Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City, or to reduce or dilute insurance available for payment of potential claims.

5.3.12 Consultant agrees that the provisions of this section shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which the Consultant may be held responsible for the payment of damages resulting from the Consultant’s activities or the activities of any person or person for which the Consultant is otherwise responsible. 5.4 Sufficiency of Insurers. Insurance required herein shall be provided by authorized insurers in good standing with the State of California. Coverage shall be provided by insurers admitted in the State of California with an A.M. Best’s Key Rating of B++, Class VII, or better, unless such requirements are waived in writing by the City Administrator or his designee due to unique circumstances. 5.5 Verification of Coverage. Consultant shall furnish City with both certificates of insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, affecting all of the coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require Consultant’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’ Compensation policies. Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable Certificate of Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the following endorsements stated on the certificate: 1. "The City of Rialto, its officials, employees, and agents are named as an additional insured…” ("as respects City of Rialto Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement). 2. "This General Liability insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or self-insurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Rialto Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement). 3. "Should any of the above described policies be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named." Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable and must be crossed out. 4. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers. In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Rialto shall be named the certificate holder on the policies. All certificates of insurance and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with authority to bind coverage, whether that is the authorized agent/broker or insurance underwriter. Failure to obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Consultant’s obligation to provide them. 6. INDEMNIFICATION To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend (at Consultant’s sole cost and expense), protect and hold harmless City and its officers, council members, officials, employees,

Page 61: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

Page 10 of 21

agents and volunteers and all other public agencies whose approval of the Project is required, (individually “Indemnified Party”; collectively “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all liabilities, claims, judgments, arbitration awards, settlements, costs, demands, orders, and penalties (collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to Claims arising from injuries or death of persons (Consultant’s employees included) and damage to property, which Claims arise out of, pertain to, or are related to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant, its agents, employees, or subcontractors, or arise from Consultant’s negligent, reckless, or willful performance of or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this Agreement (“Indemnified Claims”), but Consultant’s liability for Indemnified Claims shall be reduced to the extent such Claims arise from the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the City, its officers, council members, officials, employees, or agents. Consultant shall reimburse the Indemnified Parties for any reasonable expenditures, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert fees, litigation costs, and expenses that each Indemnified Party may incur by reason of Indemnified Claims. Upon request by an Indemnified Party, Consultant shall defend with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party all Claims against the Indemnified Party that may arise out of, pertain to, or relate to Indemnified Claims, whether or not Consultant is named as a party to the Claim proceeding. The determination whether a Claim “may arise out of, pertain to, or relate to Indemnified Claims” shall be based on the allegations made in the Claim and the facts known or subsequently discovered by the Parties. In the event a final judgment, arbitration award, order, settlement, or other final resolution expressly determines that Claims did not arise out of, pertain to, nor relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Consultant to any extent, then City shall reimburse Consultant for the reasonable costs of defending the Indemnified Parties against such Claims, except City shall not reimburse Consultant for attorneys’ fees, expert fees, litigation costs, and expenses that were incurred defending Consultant or any parties other than Indemnified Parties against such Claims. Consultant’s indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties for such matters indemnified hereunder are fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations or, if an action is timely filed, until such action is final. This provision is intended for the benefit of third party Indemnified Parties not otherwise a party to this Agreement. 7. REPORTS AND RECORDS 7.1 Accounting Records. Consultant shall keep complete, accurate, and detailed accounts of all time, costs, expenses, and expenditures pertaining in any way to this Agreement. Consultant shall keep such books and records as shall be necessary to properly perform the Services required by this Agreement and to enable the Contract Officer to evaluate the performance of such Services. The Contract Officer shall have full and free access to such books and records at all reasonable times, including the right to inspect, copy, audit, and make records and transcripts from such records. 7.2 Reports. Consultant shall periodically prepare and submit to the Contract Officer such reports concerning the performance of the Services required by this Agreement as the Contract Officer shall require. Consultant hereby acknowledges that the City is greatly concerned about the cost of the Scope of Services to be performed pursuant to this Agreement. For this reason, Consultant agrees that if Consultant becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or will materially increase or decrease the cost of the Scope of Services contemplated herein or, if Consultant is providing design services, the cost of the project being designed, Consultant shall promptly notify the Contract Officer of such fact, circumstance, technique, or event and the estimated increased or decreased cost related thereto and, if Consultant is providing design services, the estimated increased or decreased cost estimate for the project being designed.

All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents, memoranda, correspondence, computations, and other materials prepared by Consultant, its employees, subcontractors, and agents in the performance of this Agreement shall be the property of City and shall be promptly delivered to City upon request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement, and Consultant shall have no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of its full rights of ownership of the documents and materials hereunder. Any use of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of incomplete documents without specific written authorization by the Consultant will be at the City's sole risk and without liability to Consultant, and the City shall indemnify the Consultant for all damages resulting therefrom. Consultant may retain copies of such documents for its own use. Consultant shall have an unrestricted right to use the concepts embodied therein. Consultant shall ensure that all its subcontractors shall provide for assignment to City of any documents or materials prepared by them, and in the event Consultant fails to secure such assignment, Consultant shall indemnify City for all damages resulting therefrom. 7.4 Release of Documents. All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents, and other materials prepared by Consultant in the performance of services under this Agreement shall not be released publicly without the prior written approval of the Contract Officer. All information gained by Consultant in the performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential and shall not be released by Consultant without City’s prior written authorization. 7.5 Audit and Inspection of Records. After receipt of reasonable notice and during the regular business hours of City, Consultant shall provide City, or other agents of City, such access to Consultant’s books, records, payroll documents, and facilities as City deems necessary to examine, copy, audit, and inspect all accounting books, records, work data, documents, and activities directly related to Consultant’s performance under this Agreement. Consultant shall maintain such books, records, data, and documents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall clearly identify and make such items readily accessible to such parties during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years from the date of final payment by City hereunder. 8. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT 8.1 California Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted both as to validity and as to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. 8.2 Disputes. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any dispute concerning a question of fact arising under this Agreement which is not disposed of by agreement of the Parties shall be presented to the City Administrator or his authorized representative by the Consultant’s provision of a letter or other writing setting forth the general nature of the dispute, the disputed facts believed to be true by the Consultant, the relevance of those facts to the dispute in question, and a statement that the dispute is being submitted to the City Administrator or his authorized representative pursuant to this Section 8.2 of this Agreement. Upon receipt of any notice of a disputed fact as provided immediately above, the City Administrator or his authorized representative shall set a hearing to be conducted within thirty (30) days and shall direct the head of the department having the most knowledge concerning the dispute to assemble the City’s position with respect to the matters set forth in the notice of dispute. At the hearing, the Consultant and the City Department Head, or their attorneys, shall have the right to call and examine such witnesses as shall have knowledge of the facts relevant to the matter in dispute. All witnesses shall be sworn under oath and the hearing before the City Administrator shall be transcribed by a court reporter. The costs of the court reporter shall be split equally between the Consultant and the City. The hearing before the City Administrator or his authorized representative may be continued from time to time as necessary to elicit all relevant evidence with regard to the disputed fact. Within thirty (30) days of the close of the hearing, the City Administrator or his authorized representative shall

Page 63: City of Rialto · Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Rialto or (2) an acceptable

Page 12 of 21

issue his or her written decision and mail the same to the Consultant. The decision of the City Administrator or his authorized representative shall be conclusive. This Section 8.2 does not preclude consideration of questions of law in connection with decisions provided for herein. Nothing in this agreement, however, shall be construed as making the final decision of any administrative official representative or board on the question of law. Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall prohibit the City from terminating this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.5 of this Agreement. 8.3 Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole according to its fair language and common meaning to achieve the objectives and purposes of the Parties. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the Parties. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement. The caption headings of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience and identification purposes only and shall not be deemed to limit, expand, or define the contents of the respective sections or paragraphs. 8.4 Default of Consultant. A. Consultant’s failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a default. B. If the City Administrator, or his designee, determines that Consultant is in default in the performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, he/she shall notify Consultant in writing of such default. Consultant shall have ten (10) days, or such longer period as City may designate, to cure the default by rendering satisfactory performance. In the event Consultant fails to cure its default within such period of time, City shall have the right, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement without further notice and without prejudice of any remedy to which City may be entitled at law, in equity, or under this Agreement. Consultant shall be liable for any and all reasonable costs incurred by City as a result of such default. Compliance with the provisions of this section shall not constitute a waiver of any City right to take legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing herein shall limit City’s right to terminate this Agreement without cause pursuant to Section 3.5. C. If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 8.4 B, take over the Scope of Services and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Scope of Services required hereunder exceeds the Maximum Contract Amount (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated. The withholding or failure to withhold payments to Consultant shall not limit Consultant’s liability for completion of the Services as provided herein. 8.5 Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. Any waiver by the Parties of any default or breach of any covenant, condition, or term contained in this Agreement, shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent or other default or breach, nor shall failure by the Parties to require exact, full, and complete compliance with any of the covenants, conditions, or terms contained in this Agreement be construed as changing the terms of this Agreement in any manner or preventing the Parties from enforcing the full provisions hereof.

However, Consultant will not indemnify City if the suit or claim results from: (1) City's alteration of a deliverable, such that City’s alteration of such deliverable created the infringement upon any presently existing U.S. letters patent or copyright; or (2) the use of a deliverable in combination with other material not provided by Consultant when it is such use in combination which infringes upon an existing U.S. letters patent or copyright. B. Consultant shall have sole control of the defense of any such claim or suit and all negotiations for settlement thereof, Consultant shall not be obligated to indemnify City under any settlement made without Consultant’s consent or in the event City fails to cooperate in the defense of any suit or claim, provided, however, that such defense shall be at Consultant’s expense.

For Economic Development Committee [September 27, 2017]

TO: Honorable Economic Development Committee Members

APPROVAL: Robb R. Steel, Assistant CA/Director of Development Services

FROM: James Caro, Building & Code Enforcement Manager

Request Economic Development Committee to Review and Approve the Architectural Designs andConstruction Drawings for either 1) the Construction of an Addition to the Existing DevelopmentServices Building or 2) the Construction of a New Modular Building for the Development ServicesDepartment.

BACKGROUND:On April 26, 2017, staff presented the architectural design and construction drawings for an additionto the Development Services Department building. The Economic Development Committee reviewedstaff’s proposal and indicated that an addition to the existing building would not support the City’slonger-term facility requirements. The EDC directed staff to create and present options for a modularbuilding across Palm Avenue.

On June 20, 2017, staff presented the architectural design and construction drawings for 1)construction of a modular building and 2) construction of a traditional stick built building. The EDCadvised staff to complete and present a detailed proposal for the modular building option. The EDCindicated that the proposal should include the location, egress, parking, construction costs, andproject completion timeline. The EDC also directed staff to present funding options available tocomplete the project.

Staff delegated the remaining funds from a Professional Services Agreement with Studio Roca, Inc.City of Rialto Printed on 9/22/2017Page 1 of 4

File #: 17-852, Version: 1

Staff delegated the remaining funds from a Professional Services Agreement with Studio Roca, Inc.to complete the Architectural Design Services and Construction Drawings for the modular building.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION :Most recently, Studio Roca adjusted the architectural design and construction drawings to better suitthe needs of the Development Services Department, as well as the requests made by the EDC. Theadjusted design includes 80 linear feet of counter service space, a larger lobby/waiting area, 2 singleaccess public restrooms, 2 multi-access employee restrooms, 5 offices, 32 individual workstations/cubicles, 3 conference rooms and a break room (Exhibit A) .

The City will construct the modular on the northeast corner of First Street and Palm Avenue, on theCity owned vacant lot. Complete construction (modular and parking) will occupy approximately30,000 square feet of space. Egress for the building will be on First Street. The area is currentlyzoned Central Area Specific Plan - Core Commercial, and requires parking at one space for every125 square feet of building.

Estimated Project Cost - Modular

Formal Construction Plan Drawings $38,000

Soils Report/Percolations Test $10,000

Street Improvements/Grading $17,000

Parking Lot Construction (40 spaces) $120,000

Foundation Construction $45,000

Fire Sprinkler Plans/Build $85,000

Modular Construction $595,000

Office Furniture $15,000

Contingency $185,000

Total Cost $1,110,000

Studio Roco’s original proposal for an expansion/addition to the existing Development Servicesbuilding, included an additional 1,359 square feet of space; over 20 linear feet of counter servicespace, an additional 144 square feet of lobby space, 2 additional single access employee restrooms,3 offices, 11 individual work stations and 1 additional conference room (Exhibit B ).

Estimated Project Cost - Addition

Construction Office Furniture Contingency Fund

$570,000 $15,000 $57,000

Total Cost $627,000

Each of the concepts designate a cashier, information desk as well as an self-service kiosk, equippedwith an internet connected computer, to serve as a resource to the community and developers forproject inquiries.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:As of June 30, 2017, the General Facilities Development Impact Fund account holds approximately$1,170,000 with no significant encumbrances. Proposed projects include the Development Servicesremodel (costs identified above) and the community center at the proposed Fire Station 205 location(approximately $1,500,000). Currently, there is insufficient fund balance to pay for both projects.However, staff anticipates that upcoming development will generate sufficient fees to pay for bothprojects within the next 5 years, and the City could structure a bridge loan from another fundingsource to allow immediate construction on both projects.

At the June 20, 2017 EDC meeting, staff stated that development impact fees could fund either theCity of Rialto Printed on 9/22/2017Page 3 of 4

File #: 17-852, Version: 1

At the June 20, 2017 EDC meeting, staff stated that development impact fees could fund either thebuilding expansion or the new modular building. California law allows the City to use developmentimpact fees for new or expanded capital facilities that accommodate growth, but not for existingdeficiencies in the City’s infrastructure. The expansion of the Development Services building ispredominantly attributable to growth in demand and development impact fees can fund 100% of thecost. However, because a new modular building replaces a portion of the existing building (4,000square feet), generally development impact fees can only fund the incremental square footage (2,000square feet). Consequently, development of the new modular would require funding from anothersource for say 2/3 of the cost (or $740,000) with impact fees picking up the other 1/3 ($370,000).There is no identified source of funding for this existing deficiency.

The City might find that perhaps 50% of the cost of the new facility is growth related because ofservice and space efficiencies, but this would still leave a sizable funding gap of $555,000. The Citydid not budget any general fund capital outlay for FY 18, and this would require a reserve allocationor identification of an alternative funding source.

RECOMMENDATION:Staff recommends that the Economic Development Committee review and discuss the designoptions, costs, and funding scenarios.

For Economic Development Committee [September 27, 2017]

TO: Honorable Economic Development Committee Members

APPROVAL: Robb R. Steel, Asst. CA/Director of Dev. Svs.

FROM: Robert G. Eisenbeisz, P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer

Request the Economic Development Committee to Provide Direction on Street Light MaintenanceServices for City-Owned Street Lights.

BACKGROUND:On July 26, 2016, the City Council approved the purchase agreement with Southern CaliforniaEdison (SCE) for $2,112,709 to purchase eligible public street lights. On March 29, 2017, theCalifornia Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) approved the sale agreement.

On May 9, 2017, the City Council approved an agreement with Siemens Industry Inc., (Siemens) forthe asset transfer of the streetlights from SCE, and to retrofit the existing light fixtures to LightEmitting Diode fixtures (LED) at a total combined cost of $1,414,492.

The City estimates that the acquisition of the streetlights and the LED conversion of the fixtures willyield an annual savings of $314,573. The City expects the annual energy cost to reduce by $82,944and the annual maintenance cost to reduce by $231,629. The estimated savings made theacquisition and LED conversion project financially viable since the estimated savings will recovercosts over the next 9.2 years, commensurate with the approved project financing.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION :The acquisition of approximately 3,800 streetlights will require the City to maintain the lights uponcompletion of the acquisition process. The LED conversion of the fixtures provides an additionalsignificant savings opportunity since the new fixtures will be under warranty, resulting in furtherreduced maintenance costs. The first year will be a transition period, which will set the course ofCity of Rialto Printed on 9/22/2017Page 1 of 3

reduced maintenance costs. The first year will be a transition period, which will set the course ofaction for a long-term contract.

In May 2017, staff requested pricing for street light maintenance services from St. Francis Electric,the City’s current traffic signal maintenance company, and Siemens, the City’s approved Contractorfor the street light transfer and LED conversion project.

The following pricing was received:

VENDOR PRICESt. Frances Electric $124,800Siemens Industry, Inc. $ 71,136

Siemens provided the most competitive pricing for these maintenance services. Since Siemens willbe performing the street light conversion project, they are likely in a position to provide morecompetitive pricing to perform interim street light maintenance services. For example, should a city-owned high-pressure sodium vapor light fail, rather than paying the costs to repair or replace the oldstyle light, Siemens would be responsible for installing a new LED fixture, thus saving the Cityreplacement costs on the old style light that would have ultimately been replaced by the conversionproject.

Siemens, as part of their proposed maintenance agreement, will provide an online and telephonicstreet light outage reporting system. This will include, via the acquisition/conversion contract, anidentifying number tag attached to each light pole (similar to the existing SCE tag). The citizens ofRialto will be notified of this new system via Social Media, mailers, and an insert in the RialtoProgress Magazine (See Attachment 3 ).

The agreement is based on the number of city-owned street lights and the monthly rates for streetlight maintenance provided by Siemens. A copy of the proposal from Siemens (Attachment 1) isincluded. Fixtures that are under warranty will not be included; however, any other relatedmaintenance work that is not covered by the warranty will be provided under the contract.

An alternative option is to move forward with a Purchase Order issued to Siemens in the amount of$15,000 to provide services on an as-needed and on-call basis. This option would rely on thewarranty for the LED conversion project if problems arise. If other problems are detected that areoutside of the warranty provisions, Siemens will invoice the City for services provided on a time andmaterials basis. This option would not include the 24-hour support through the online and/ortelephonic reporting system, requiring City staff to direct service requests to the vendor as soon aspossible, which could be the next business day if the report is made after-hours.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:Funding for the annual contract option is budgeted and available up to the proposed amounts in theaccounts listed below:

· Landscaping and Lighting District No. 2, Fund Account No. 224-500-7670-2011 in the amountof $11,000, and

· Lighting District No. 1, Fund Account No. 490-500-4860-2011 in the amount of $86,000.

The total cost of the proposed annual contract is $71,136 with $25,000 additional budgeted for extraCity of Rialto Printed on 9/22/2017Page 2 of 3

File #: 17-879, Version: 1

The total cost of the proposed annual contract is $71,136 with $25,000 additional budgeted for extraordinary work above the basic maintenance agreement (i.e.: light pole knockdowns, wiring repairs,etc.) totaling $96,136. This agreement includes maintenance services to all 3,800 City street lightsprior to and after completion of the LED conversion project. Once the conversion project has beencompleted, the retrofitted light fixtures will be under a parts and labor warranty with Siemens for one(1) year should any failures occur.

RECOMMENDATION:Staff is requesting the Economic Development Committee provide direction for this service. Amongthe options are:

· Direct staff to present the contract for a one (1) year Contract Services Agreement withSiemens Industry, Inc., for street light maintenance services in the amount of $96,136 for fiscalyear 2017/2018 and recommend City Council approval.

· Issue a Purchase Order in the Amount of $15,000 to Siemens Industry to provide street lightmaintenance services on an as-needed basis. This Purchase Order would be within staffauthorization amounts and would not be presented to the City Council for approval but wouldbe brought before the Council in the event the costs for services needed to exceed thatamount.

TO: Honorable Economic Development Committee Members

APPROVAL: Robb R. Steel, Asst. CA/Director of Development Services.

FROM: Thomas J. Crowley, Utilities Manager

Request the EDC to Provide Direction to City of Rialto/Rialto Utility Authority Staff on Negotiating anEnergy Services Contract with Comfort Mechanical Enterprises, Inc., and Associated ProjectFinancing for the Wastewater Treatment Plant kVAR Energy Recovery Project.

BACKGROUND:The Power House Energy Saver is a patented product created nearly ten years ago. The PowerHouse has been installed in several facilities along the East Coast and Central United States and theTennessee Valley Authority has included the Power House Energy Saver in its Preferred ProductsNetwork. Locally it is installed at a Stater Bros. in the City of Fontana. A letter of Intent from ComfortMechanical Enterprises, Inc. (CME) is included as Attachment 1 .

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION :The City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant has outdated and aging electrical equipment. This outdatedand aging equipment uses a lot of energy and is costly to run. CME, at the request of plantoperators, conducted an energy survey of the WWTP’s energy usage and determined deficiencies inthe system. A copy of the energy survey is included as Attachment 2 .

Based on the survey results, CME recommends installation of two (2) Powerhouse Energy Saversmart capacitor units. CME believes installation of their Power House units will improve the

smart capacitor units. CME believes installation of their Power House units will improve theefficiency of the entire electrical system and will help the City achieve energy savings.

CME expects the WWTP could save 965,172 KW’s annually and reduce equipment maintenancecosts over their life cycle and reports this KW savings is equivalent to 678 metric tons of greenhouseemissions.

The Power House is able to provide actual energy savings by capturing lost power, storing it and thenfeeding it back into WWTP electrical system.

In order to accomplish this, The Powerhouse adds capacitance (stored charge) via a series ofcapacitors. This enables the unit to capture the power commonly lost to ground, store it, and put itback into the system, evenly across all phases, as it is needed.

With this process, the Power House is expected to:· Greatly reduces low voltage issues· Elevates voltage of the entire system· Stabilizes voltage of the complete system· Reduces voltage drops when demand increases.· Reduces tripped breakers (as a result of low voltage or power spikes)· Lowers kilowatt hours

In addition, by capturing and balancing the energy, the Power House insures that the equipment isrunning at its optimum voltages, which is expected to result in less mechanical problems and lowermaintenance costs, thus, increasing the life of the equipment.

CME’s is currently licensed by the California State Contractor’s License Aboard as number 608875with the following classifications:

· C-2 Insulation and Acoustical· C20 Warm-air Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning· C38 Refrigeration.

For this project, they propose to utilize a licensed electrician to install all breakers and wiring as wellas to verify the installation before connection to the facility.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:The project is estimated to cost $351,000. CME reports an estimated first year savings of $96,909with a life cycle savings of $2,252,975.

CME proposed the following payment terms:· 35% ($122,850) at the contract signing.· 35% ($122,850) at the completion of the pre-install work and plan.· 30% ($105,300) at the completion and acceptance.

CME also proposes to have the City/RUA fund improvements through a financing deal with privateplacement loans. CME suggests the financing deal be with Noesis Finance in association withparticipating banking institution partners.

SURVEY

Introduction We would like to thank you for the opportunity to visit the Veolia Wastewater facility to gain an insight into the energy efficiency challenges facing wastewater treatment facilities. The facility employees have been most gracious to our team by scheduling site visits and escorting our engineers over the entire complex. I would like to thank your team for their time and professionalism. Their knowledge and assistance was most helpful to our engineers.

This document summarizes the results of our visit and establishes the scope of our data collection efforts and provides technical information related to the analysis of the energy usage at this facility as well as recommended product information.

When considering energy usage at any facility the most logical starting point is to become as energy efficient as possible so as to reduce any associated cost related to renewable energy generating projects (i.e., solar, wind, geothermal). Therefore, this report is limited in scope to address the recommended starting point in an overall energy conservation program for this facility.

As you are fully aware, every facility is different and there are many factors (especially weather in our area) related to energy use that require a custom solution. Therefore, this energy survey is based on a historical review of the utility bills to establish peaks and patterns, on-site visits, and the installation of industry standard Dent energy monitors on the individual main electrical panels.

Background On February 10th engineers placed industry standard Dent energy monitors on the two main electrical panels serving the wastewater treatment plant. One main panel is located inside and one is located outside. The monitors recorded energy use at one (1) minute intervals until February 17th. Historical utility bills for the past three (3) years were reviewed for peak loads and patterns. Our engineers conducted several site visits as well to gain an insight to the various equipment and other electrical devices being used at this facility. Observations The historical energy bills received indicate the following:

Recommendation Harmonic voltages and currents in an electric power system are a result of nonlinear electric loads. Harmonic frequencies in the power grid are a frequent cause of power quality problems. Harmonics in power systems result in increased heating in the equipment and conductors, misfiring in variable speed drives, and torque pulsations in motors. Reduction of harmonics is considered desirable. In a normal alternating current power system, the current varies sinusoidal at a specific frequency, usually 50 or 60 hertz. When a linear electrical load is connected to the system, it draws a sinusoidal current at the same frequency as the voltage (though usually not in phase with the voltage). Current harmonics are caused by non-linear loads. When a non-linear load, such as a rectifier, is connected to the system, it draws a current that is not necessarily sinusoidal. The current waveform can become quite complex, depending on the type of load and its interaction with other components of the system. Regardless of how complex the current waveform becomes, as described through Fourier series analysis, it is possible to deconstruct it into a series of simple sinusoids, which start at the power system fundamental frequency and occur at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency. Overall, our analysis indicates low power factors on the two (2) main electrical panels that feed the entire complex. We highly recommend the addition of reactors at your location as well as the

installation of a patented Power House system that captures wasted energy, increases the power factor, and lowers the KVA (see product information previously provided). Since you cannot manage what you cannot measure, this recommendation includes the installation of an energy monitoring system (EMS).

It is expected this facility could save 965,172 KW’s annually and reduce equipment maintenance costs over their life cycle. This KW savings is equivalent to 678 metric tons of greenhouse emissions.

Scope of Work The project would include installation of two (2) Power House units, and the Energy Monitoring System (EMS) to be installed as follows:

1. MCC 5- Switchable 480 is an interior location within the electrical room. A breaker switch would be installed in the main panel and the Power House unit will connect to this breaker switch for ease of operation. Mounting includes securing panels in a manner to meet or exceed all building codes and requirements.

2. MCC 4-Switchable 480 would be located near the exterior main electrical panel. A breaker switch would be installed in the main panel and the Power House will connect to this breaker switch for ease of operation. This exterior unit will require a new concrete pad and anchors for securing the Power House.

3. The Energy Monitoring System (EMS) requires 110 volt, 2 outlet junction box, and an Ethernet outlet located near each of the main electrical panels. A wireless network option is available if the facility declines to use their network for the EMS.

4. An Electrician would install all needed breakers into existing main panels and will use manufacturer sized wires to feed the Power House units to meets or exceeds all codes.

5. A certified Power House Electrician will inspect and certify the installation prior to activating the Power House equipment

Project Phases The recommended work associated with this recommendation would be achieved in a series of phases as described below.

1. Phase 1 - Pre-Install Meeting

Includes Coordination meeting with Owner Rep, IT network personnel, Builder and/or Engineer. Pull appropriate permits if required and determine the specific locations of the units and the concrete pad. At this pre-install meeting a determination will be made regarding the EMS network requirements, security, and whether to use the client existing network or an optional custom wireless network.

In most cases, the installation of the breaker switch used for the Power House maybe installed without cutting power to the facility. However, for safety sake, it may be necessary to temporarily kill power for a short period of time. A determination regarding this issue will be discussed and determined at the pre-install meeting.

2. Phase 2 - EMS Installation and Specific equipment sizing Installation of the electrical outlets (and Ethernet cabling, if required) for the networking equipment of the web based EMS system. A licensed Electrician will install in the existing two (2) main electrical panels the necessary CTs for the EMS. The EMS software and remote accounts will be configured and data logging activated. This phase also includes the specific equipment sizing and ordering process.

3. Phase 3 - Pre-install Construction

This phase involves the construction of a concrete pad and anchors for the exterior unit and installation of new breakers, circuits, and wiring in the main electrical panels (per manufacturer’s recommendations) by a licensed electrician.

4. Phase 4 – Installation and Certification Installation of the two (2) Power House units at the locations defined and prepared. A certified Power House Electrician will inspect and certify all work prior to activation.

5. Phase 5 - Optimization This phase of the project will configure the EMS and adjust the Power House units for optimum performance.

6. Phase 6 – Operational Training The last phase of the project is to offer operational, on-site training to employees on the use of the EMS and Power House Units.

Time Frames All work will be scheduled in coordination with the facility manager and contingent upon receiving necessary information in a timely manner.

We estimate pre-installation work to order equipment, install necessary breakers and outlets, build a concrete pad for the outside unit, and install the EMS system will take approximately one (1) week. Once the Power House equipment have been delivered, it is estimated to take one (1) week to install the two (2) Power House units and to run tests, optimize configuration, and training on-site personnel.

All electrical energy coming into a facility is known as Apparent Power, and the power we actually use is defined as Real Power. Even though you pay for it, a portion of the power entering your electrical system is lost to ground and never consumed. This is referred to as Reactive Power. The ultimate goal is to bring these two factors, Apparent Power and Real Power, closer together. The POWERHOUSE is able to accomplish this by capturing this lost voltage, store it and feed it back into your electrical system.

In order to accomplish this, The POWERHOUSE adds capacitance via a series of capacitors. This enables the unit to capture the Reactive Power, commonly lost to ground, store it, and put it back into the system, evenly across all phases, as it is needed resulting in a significantly improved power factor.

What is Power Factor?

Simply put, Power Factor is a measure of electrical system’s efficiency.

The apparent or total electrical power (Kilo Volt Amperes or kVA) used in an electrical system by an industrial or commercial facility has two components:

Productive Power (Kilowatts or kW) which produces work.

Reactive Power (Kilo Volt Amperes Reactive or kVAR) which generates the magnetic fields required in inductive electrical equipment (AC motors, transformers, inductive furnaces, ovens, etc.)

Reactive Power (kVAR) produces no productive work. Because the inductive electrical equipment employing magnetic fields requires this Reactive Power, which produces no productive work, the Total Power (kVA) provided by the generating source (your utility) must always be greater than the Productive Power (kW).

The ratio of Productive Power (kW) to Total Power (kVA) is called the Power Factor (PF = kW / kVA). It is a measure of the systems electrical efficiency in an alternating current circuit and is represented as a % or a decimal.

The relationship between kVA, kW and kVAR is non-linear and is expressed:

kVA2 = kW2 + kVAR2

In almost all industrial facilities where Demand charges apply, utility companies charge a penalty for poor power factor. Poor power factor is most often corrected through the use to Power Factor Correction banks.

Recommendations and Approval of Remote Payment Center Service Provider for Utility Payments

BACKGROUND:RWS/Veolia customer service department is proposing to implement a new payment program by enteringinto an agreement with a company named PayNearMe. Once implemented, customers will have theability to go to any 7 Eleven, CVS, and Family Dollar (Option 1) or Walmart, Cardenas, and Superior(Option 2) to pay their utility bills.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION :With the service, any money received for utility payments will be deposited directly into the City’s accounton a daily basis and then transferred to the appropriate Rialto Water Services/Veolia (RWS/Veolia)account the next day. This will benefit the customer because of increased convenience as they can nowpay their bill after normal business hours or on weekends at many locations in or outside the City limits.

RWS/Veolia has carefully reviewed the most popular remote cash payment service providers.Considering customer satisfaction, convenience, fees, locations, available hours and likelihood forpotential complaints. RWS/Veolia recommends PayNearMe to be the vendor for the City's remotecash payment processor.

The typical adoption rate is approximately 30%, which translates into 650 remote cash payments permonth for the City of Rialto. One consideration is, if multiple options are selected it will directly limitthe City's negotiating power and may confuse customers because each vendor has a differentprocess, costs, and service level payment processing turn-around time.

If approved, RWS and City/Rialto Utility Authority staff will:· Notify customers of the new service through messages on their utility bills and through social

media.· Change greetings on the customer service phone system.· Provide notices and flyers at the City and Customer Service Center.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:The proposed action is not expected to have a financial impact on the City/Rialto Utility Authority.

RECOMMENDATION:Staff is requesting the Economic Development Committee provide recommendations and approval ofRemote Payment Center Service Provider for Utility Payments.

Provide Recommendations and Approve Change in Rialto Water Service/Veolia Customer ServiceHours

BACKGROUND:The Rialto Water Services/Veolia (RWS/Veolia) Customer Service Department is proposing a lateropening time on Thursday of each week. The intent of the late opening time is to allow time for customerservice training, staff meetings and work on special projects.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION :Since the inception of the Concession Agreement, the need to provide training and program updates totheCustomerServiceAgentshasbecome increasinglymore important. Currently training isprovidedonaone-on-one basis as time allows and results in inconsistencies in the manner some issues are handledand information that is provided to customers.

RWS/Veoliahasevaluatedcurrentworkflow,callvolumeandcounter transactionsoverafour-weekperiodand based on their evaluation, believe opening later on Thursday mornings would have the least impact tocustomers.

The following charts illustrate the statistics that RWS/Veolia evaluated.
