City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-376-2019
Submitted by: Claudia Arellano
Submitting Department: Public Works
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
A Proclamation Declaring September 21, 2019 as "Arbor Day" in the City of Vernon
Recommendation:
A. Acknowledge and announce a Proclamation declaring Saturday, September 21, 2019 as “Arbor Day” in the City of
Vernon.
Background:
The idea for Arbor Day in the United States originated in Nebraska City, Nebraska. In 1872 the State Board of
Agriculture accepted a resolution by J. Sterling Morton, “to set aside one day to plant trees, both forest and fruit”. All
fifty states have passed legislation adopting Arbor Day, which is celebrated on a date appropriate for tree planting in
their region. In California, Arbor Day is typically observed in March or April. Observance of a September 21st Arbor
Day in Vernon this year will be a one-time-only occurrence; in future years the Public Works Department staff will
propose a date likely to coincide with Earth Day.
To observe Arbor Day on September 21, 2019 a tree planting event is scheduled at 8:30 a.m. on the City Hall lawn
area.
Public Works Department staff pursued grant funding to green the environment and educate the community about the
benefits trees provide. With approval from the City Administrator, the Public Works Department partnered with the
California Urban Forests Council (CaUFC), West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA), and the Western Chapter ISA
(WCISA) for the Invest From the Ground Up urban tree planting project (also known as the Cool Parks Grant
Project). This is a CALFIRE funded program utilizing California Climate Investment (CCI) funds. The recipient of this
funding is the California Urban Forests Council (CaUFC). In total, these agencies are planting 2,500 trees in many
partner cities across California and the City of Vernon was granted 200 of those trees. The partnership also includes
local community groups who are involved mainly with assisting in workshop and Arbor Day outreach and logistics. The
Holy Angels Church of the Deaf is the local community group partner in the City of Vernon.
The Cool Parks Grant Project provides the following at no cost to the City of Vernon:
•200 trees to be planted in public walkways/sidewalks throughout the City
•A Tree Team Workshop for the community to learn about trees and the benefits trees provide
•Up to 20 times monitoring per tree of all 200 trees
•One structural prune
After the maintenance obligation is completed by our partners and the grant term ends, the City will incorporate the
trees into the City’s inventory and current tree maintenance program.
Ultimately, it is the goal of the Public Works Department to apply for a Tree City USA recognition for the City of
Vernon as provided by the Arbor Day Foundation. There are four standards established by the Arbor Day Foundation
that must be met prior to the submittal of a Tree City USA application and to ensure that every qualifying community has
a viable tree management program:
1)Designate a responsible Tree Board/Department;
2)Adopt a Tree Ordinance;
3)Implement a Community Forestry Program, and;
4)Proclaim and Observe Arbor Day.
The Public Works Department staff is currently working on standards 1 thru 3 listed above and will return to the City
Council with a proposed ordinance including a proposed responsible tree board/department and community forestry
program.
At this time, the Public Works Department staff recommends that the City Council approve the proposed proclamation
and proclaim September 21, 2019 as the City of Vernon’s Arbor Day.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to proclaim September 21, 2019 as Arbor Day. The future maintenance of the 200 trees
planted through the Cool Parks Grant Project will be incorporated into the Public Works Department budget.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-390-2019
Submitted by: Brandon Gray
Submitting Department: Police Department
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
Approve the Purchase of Two (2) Motorola All Band Consolettes for Inter-Agency Operability and Back-Up
Capability
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed action is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) review,
because it is a continuing administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the
environment, and therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and
B. Approve and authorize the issuance of a purchase order with Motorola Solutions Inc., (“Motorola”) for a total
amount not to exceed $13,944.83 for the purchase of two (2) Motorola All-Band Consolettes to compliment the new
ICI radio system with inter-agency operability, and to serve as the Police Department’s back-up radio system.
Background:
The Vernon Police Department’s ("VPD") radio system is an essential part of the City's public safety commitment.
VPD's radio systems connect first responders with dispatchers, who relay information gathered from our citizens.
On June 18, 2019, VPD switched from its legacy VHF radio system to its recently approved and installed Motorola
ICI trunked UHF radio system. As is often the case when replacing antiquated equipment with new state-of-the-art
equipment, the Police Department learned that additional devices would be needed in order to fully utilize key features
of the new ICI radio system. The Police Department has identified the need to purchase two (2) Motorola all band
consolettes. The Motorola All-Band Consolette is a powerful desktop multi-band radio that works seamlessly with
digital P25 (ICI radio system) or legacy analog systems (VHF) and is optimized for battery operation to serve as a
back-up standalone dispatch station.
A key feature of the ICI radio system that the requested consolettes will provide is the ability to patch VPD's radio
frequency to the frequencies of neighboring agencies. Maintaining a substantially similar radio system to the City's
neighboring first responders, as well as other ICI system members, allows for greater interoperability and redundancy.
The ability to patch frequencies provides officers two-way communication with agencies not yet using the ICI system.
This key feature of the new ICI radio system would simplify communications when responding to multi-agency incidents
occurring in and out of the City of Vernon, thereby improving service efficiency.
The requested consolettes will also afford the police dispatcher the ability to monitor multiple neighboring agency
frequencies with no interruption to the main radio system. As an example, this feature would be extremely useful to a
dispatcher when monitoring neighboring agency vehicle pursuits as they near the City of Vernon.
In addition to the ability to monitor and patch multiple frequencies, the requested consolettes will serve as a backup
radio system should the main system ever fail. When the ICI system was planned and installed, the Police Department
elected to keep its VHF legacy system active to serve as a back-up radio system. However, the requested consolettes
will allow the Police Department the option to remain within the ICI radio system even if the main system is down.
Motorola’s pricing for this equipment was obtained through the Los Angeles Volume Subscriber Pricing Program.
Pursuant to Section 2.17.12 (A)(5)(b) of the Vernon Municipal Code, the purchases identified above are exempt from
informal selection purchasing requirements as Motorola is offering the same prices, terms and conditions as in a previous
award of another public agency (LA County) either by competitive bid or through a negotiated process and it is to the
advantage of the City to leverage these terms and conditions.
City Council approval is required pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code Section 2.17.02 (B) as in the last 12 months, the
City has awarded the vendor more than $100,000 in contracts. This threshold was exceeded with the City Council’s
approval of a lease-purchase agreement with Motorola Solutions Inc. in October of 2018 for the purchase of APX
8000 Portable Radios worn by Police staff in an amount not-to-exceed $306,600.42 over a three-year term. Staff is
seeking Council authorization to issue a purchase order in the amount of $13,944.83 for two (2) Motorola All-Band
Consolettes.
Fiscal Impact:
General funds will not be used for the purchase of two (2) Motorola All-Band Consolettes at an estimated total cost of
$13,944.83. Police Department federal asset forfeiture funds will be used for the purchase of the equipment being
requested.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-391-2019
Submitted by: Lissette Melendez
Submitting Department: Public Works
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
Award of Construction Contract to FS Contractors, Inc. for Contract No. CS-1130: Concrete Yards at Furlong
Properties
Recommendation:
A. Find that the proposed Capital Improvement Project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA) in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, Existing Facilities, part (a), because the
project is merely to make minor exterior alterations involving new concrete slabs; and
B. Accept the bid from FS Contractors, Inc. as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and reject all other bids;
and
C. Approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute a contract with FS Contractors, Inc. in substantially the
same form as attached herewith, in an amount not to exceed $135,500 for the construction of new 4” concrete slabs at
various city-owned houses on Furlong Place; and
D. Authorize a contingency amount of $14,500 in the event of an unexpected changed condition in the project and
grant authority to the City Administrator to issue Change Orders for an amount up to the contingency amount, if
necessary.
Background:
The project for Contract No. CS-1130 consists of the construction of new 4” thick concrete slabs at various
city-owned houses on Furlong Place. The scope of work includes the removal and disposal of existing concrete and
landscape areas and placement of new concrete slabs. The quantities of the new concrete slabs for each property are as
follows:
Property Square Feet
- 4323 Furlong Pl. 760.00
- 4324 Furlong Pl. 1,580.00
- 4325 Furlong Pl. 800.00
- 4327 Furlong Pl. 1,095.00
- 4328 Furlong Pl. 2,005.00
- 4329 Furlong Pl. 760.00
Total Square Footage: 7,000.00
On July 25, 2019, the Public Works Department advertised the notice inviting sealed, competitive bids for the
construction of concrete slabs at various city-owned houses located on Furlong Place. The Notice Inviting Bids was
posted on the City’s Planetbids website and published in the local newspaper. The Department has utilized the template
Notice Inviting Bids, Bid Form and Project Specifications, Instructions to Bidders and Specifications and Contract
previously approved by City Council.
The bids for Contract No. CS-1130, Concrete Yards at Furlong Properties, were received and opened on August 5,
2019. The calculated results were as follows:
1.FS Contractors, Inc. $135,500.00
2.Leonida Builders, Inc.$198,500.00
The Public Works Engineering Division staff has analyzed the bid and is now recommending that a construction contract
be awarded to FS Contractors, Inc. in the amount of $135,500. The proposed contract has been reviewed and
approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office. Additionally, staff recommends the authorization of a $14,500
contingency in the event of unexpected changed conditions or extraordinary maintenance in the project.
Fiscal Impact:
The Public Works Department has included $150,000 in its Fiscal Year 2019-2020 budget to construct the concrete
slabs. The low bid amount of $135,500, plus the contingency of $14,500 (for a total of $150,000), is within the
budgeted amount allocated to cover the cost of this project.

adhere to the specified Contract Time, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion is
requested by Contractor, agreed to by the City and formalized by Change Order.
3. Contractor shall use the latest version of Microsoft Project or equivalent software agreed to by
the parties.
4. The City will review the submitted Baseline Project Schedule for conformance with these
scheduling requirements. Within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt, the City will accept the
proposed Baseline Project Schedule or will return it with comments. If the proposed Baseline
Project Schedule is accepted by the City, it shall be deemed part of the Contract Documents. If
the Baseline Project Schedule is not accepted by City, Contractor shall revise the Baseline Project
Schedule, in accordance with the recommendations of the City, and re-submit same for
acceptance, no later than seven (7) calendar days after receipt of said recommendation.
5. Acceptance of Baseline Project Schedule by City, failure to include an element of work, or
inaccuracy in Baseline Project Schedule shall not relieve Contractor from the responsibility for
accomplishing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. Float
1. Critical Work activities are defined as Work activities which, if delayed or extended, will delay the
scheduled completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. All other Work activities are
defined as non-critical Work activities and are considered to have float. Float is defined as the
time that a non-critical Work activity can be delayed or extended without delaying the scheduled
completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. Float is considered a Project resource
available to either party or both parties as needed. Once identified, Contractor shall monitor,
account for, and maintain float in accordance with Critical Path Methodology.
2. Delays of any non-critical Work shall not be the basis for an extension of Contract Time until the
delays consume all float associated with that non-critical Work activity and cause the Work activity
to become critical.
3. It is acknowledged that City-caused time savings (i.e., critical path submittal reviews returned in
less time than allowed by the Contract Documents, approval of substitution requests which result
in a savings of time for Contractor, etc.) create shared float. Accordingly, City-caused delays may
be offset by City-caused time savings.
C. Weather (This section applies only to projects of one (1) year duration or longer)
The completion time contemplated by this Contract anticipates zero lost days (Work Days) due to
normal weather conditions annually and prorated for any duration less than twelve months. Only
unusual or extreme weather conditions, as determined by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, for the time of year will be considered as justification for an extension of time to complete
the Project, and only after the zero weather days have been utilized. Annual weather days are not
cumulative, and unused days shall become “float” for the benefit of the project, and the schedule
adjusted accordingly. The use of weather days by the Contractor shall be subject to all the conditions
of claim for an extension of time. The Contractor shall notify the City in writing within ten (10) days of
the commencement of each rain event.
D. Early Completion
While the Contractor may schedule completion of the Project earlier than the date established by the
Contract Documents, no additional compensation shall become due the Contractor for the use of float
time between the Contractor’s projected early completion date and the date for Substantial Completion
established by the Contract Documents, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion is requested
by Contractor, agreed to by the City, and formalized by Change Order.
4.02 SCHEDULE UPDATES
A. With each Application for Payment submitted by Contractor (other than the final Application for
Payment), the Contractor shall submit to the City an updated Project Schedule revised to indicate the
Work completed, status of Work in progress, all progress slippages, corrective actions taken, or
slippage carry-over, for all anticipated delays or difficulties, and all other information required to
accurately present the actual status of the progress of the Work as of the date of the Application for
Payment. If the Contractor does not submit an updated Project Schedule with an Application for
Payment, City may withhold payment, in whole or in part, until the updated Project Schedule is
submitted. In the event that an update to the Project Schedule indicates a delay to the Contract Time
the Contractor shall propose an affirmative plan to correct each such delay, including overtime and/or
additional labor, if necessary. In no event shall any Project Schedule update constitute an adjustment
in the Contract Time, any deadline, or the Contract Sum unless any such adjustment is agreed to by
the City and authorized pursuant to Change Order or Work Directive.
B. At no time shall historical data contained within the updated Project Schedule (i.e. completed activities)
be removed and/or altered in any way. This historical data is to be preserved within each of the updated
Project Schedules and submitted with the final schedule update to reflect the actual start and finish
dates for each activity within the Schedule.
C. Any work stoppages within individual work activities that exceed seven (7) calendar days in duration
shall be clearly indicated within the updated Project Schedule. In cases where unplanned activity work
stoppages exceed seven (7) calendar days activities shall be added to the Project Schedule to clearly
indicate the work stoppage period and identify forecasted resumption and completion of the activity
where work has stopped. Contractor shall clearly note all schedule revisions when Project Schedule
updates are submitted, as required in this Paragraph 4.02 above.
4.03 NONCOMPENSABLE EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES
A. Should the City determine, in its sole judgment, that the performance of the Work has not progressed
to the level of completion required by the Contract Documents, City shall have the right to order the
Contractor to take corrective measures to expedite the progress of construction, at no additional cost
to the City, including, without limitation, the following:
1. Working additional shifts of overtime.
2. Supplying additional manpower, equipment, and/or facilities.
3. Reschedule activities to maximize practical concurrence of accomplishment of activities.
4. Submitting a Recovery Schedule discussed above, for resequencing performance of the Work or
other similar measures.
5. Any other actions that may be necessary to mitigate delays.
B. Such Extraordinary Measures shall continue until the progress of the Work is no longer behind schedule
and/or reaches the stage of completion required by the Contract Documents. Contractor shall not be
entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum in connection with the performance of any such
Extraordinary Measures required by the City under this Paragraph. The City may exercise the rights
furnished the City pursuant to this Paragraph as frequently as the City deems necessary to ensure that
the Contractor’s performance of the Work will comply with the Contract Time or interim completion
dates set forth in the Contract Documents. If Contractor or its Subcontractors fail to implement or
commence Extraordinary Measures within ten (10) calendar days of City’s written demand, City may,
without prejudice to other remedies, take corrective action at the expense of the Contractor which shall
reduce the Contract Sum accordingly.
4.04 CONDITION OF PAYMENT
Compliance by Contractor with the requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to preparation,
submission, revising and updating of the Schedule is a condition precedent to City’s obligation to make payment
to Contractor of any or all sums that might otherwise be due to Contractor in the absence of such noncompliance.
Payment by City under circumstances in which City, for any reason, fails or elects not to assert its right to withhold
payment for noncompliance with this Paragraph shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to withhold future
payments on account of such noncompliance or any other noncompliance.

ARTICLE 5 - SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF CONTRACT
5.01 TERMINATION BY THE CONTRACTOR
A. Contractor shall have the right to terminate its performance of the Contract only upon the occurrence
of one of the following:
1. The Work is stopped for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days through no act or fault of the
Contractor, any Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any other
persons or entities performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the
Contractor, due to:
a. the issuance of an order of a court or other public authority having jurisdiction; or
b. an act of government, such as a declaration of national emergency making material
unavailable;
and Contractor has given City written notice within ten (10) days of the occurrence of such ground
for termination, then the Contractor may, upon thirty (30) additional calendar days written notice to
City, unless the reason has theretofore been cured, terminate its performance of the Work.
2. The Work is stopped for a period of 120 consecutive days through no act or fault of Contractor,
any Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any other persons or entities
performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the Contractor, because the
City has persistently failed to perform any material obligation under the Contract Documents and
fails to cure such default within ninety (90) days after the receipt of notice from Contractor stating
the nature of such default.
B. If Contractor terminates its performance of the Contract in accordance with this Paragraph 5.01, the
City shall pay Contractor for the Work executed through the date of termination as set forth in Paragraph
5.04-C below.
5.02 TERMINATION BY THE CITY FOR CAUSE
A. Grounds
The City shall have the right to terminate the Contractor’s performance of the Contract, in whole or in
part, without liability to City if:
1. Contractor fails promptly to begin the Work under the Contract Documents; or
2. Contractor refuses or fails to supply enough properly skilled workers or proper materials; or
3. Contractor fails to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, including
conforming to applicable standards set forth therein in constructing the Project, or refuses to

termination by City; or (b) due to and during the continuance of a Force Majeure event or
suspension by City); or
5. Contractor fails to resume performance of Work which has been suspended or stopped, within a
reasonable time after receipt of notice from City to do so or (if applicable) after cessation of the
event preventing performance; or

schedule, instrument, or other document delivered by Contractor pursuant to the Contract
Documents shall have been false or materially misleading when made; or
7. Contractor fails to make payment to Subcontractors or Material Suppliers for materials or labor in
accordance with the respective Contract Documents and applicable law; or
8. Contractor disregards laws, ordinances, or rules, regulations, or orders of a public authority having

10. Contractor becomes insolvent, is adjudicated bankrupt, or makes a general assignment for the
benefit of creditors and fails to provide City with adequate assurances of Contractor’s ability to
satisfy its contractual obligations.
A receiver, trustee, or other judicial officer shall not have any right, title, or interest in or to the Contract.
Upon that person’s appointment, City has, at its option and sole discretion, the right to immediately
cancel the Contract and declare it null and void.
B. City’s Rights.
When any of the reasons specified in Paragraph 5.02-A exist, the City may, in addition to and without
prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the City, and after giving the Contractor five (5) calendar
days written notice, terminate Contractor’s performance of the Work, in whole or in part, and may:

Upon request of the Contractor, the City shall furnish to the Contractor a detailed accounting of the
costs incurred by the City in finishing the Work.
C. Costs
If City’s costs to complete and damages incurred due to Contractor’s default exceed the unpaid
Contract balance, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the City.
D. Wrongful Termination
If it has been adjudicated or otherwise determined that City has wrongfully terminated the Contractor
for cause, then said termination shall be deemed converted to a termination for convenience as set
forth in Paragraph 5.04 and Contractor’s remedy for wrongful termination in such event shall be limited
to the recovery of the payments permitted for termination for convenience as set forth in Paragraph
5.04.
5.03 PARTIAL DELETION OR SUSPENSION OF WORK BY THE CITY
A. Contractor agrees that the City may determine whether any or all of the Work described in the Contract
Documents shall be deleted or performance suspended without electing to terminate the Contractor’s
performance under the Contract and without any penalty being incurred by the City.
B. Any such partial deletion or suspension of the Work shall in no way void or invalidate the Contract nor
shall it provide Contractor with any basis for seeking payment from City for Work deleted or suspended
except to the extent such Work has already been performed and is otherwise compensable under the
Contract.
C. The City shall have the right to later have any such suspended or deleted Work performed by Contractor
or others without any penalty to the City.
D. In the event of any partial or complete deletion or suspension of Work, the City shall furnish Contractor
with prompt written notice thereof, and the City shall be entitled to take possession of and have as its
property all Record Documents, Accounting Records, and other data prepared by Contractor or its
Subcontractors.
E. Suspension for Convenience.
1. The City may at any time and from time to time, without cause, order the Contractor, in writing, to
suspend, delay, or interrupt the Work in whole or in part for such period of time as the City may
determine. Such order shall be specifically identified as a “Work Suspension Directive” under this
Section.
2. Upon receipt of a Work Suspension Directive, Contractor shall, at the City’s expense, comply with
its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize costs allocable to the Work covered by the
Work Suspension Directive during the period of Work stoppage.
3. Within the period of suspension, or such extension to that period as is agreed upon by Contractor
and the City, the City shall either cancel the Work Suspension Directive or delete the Work covered
by such Work Suspension Directive by issuing a Change Order or Construction Change Directive.
4. If a Work Suspension Directive is cancelled or expires, Contractor shall continue the Work. A
Change Order or Construction Change Directive will be issued to cover any adjustments of the
Contract Sum and Contract Time necessarily caused by such suspension. No adjustment shall be
made to the extent:
(a) That performance is, was, or would have been so suspended, delayed, or interrupted by
another cause for which the Contractor is responsible; or
(b) That an equitable adjustment is made or denied under another provision of the Contract.
F. Suspensions for Cause
City has the authority by written order to suspend the Work, in whole or in part, without liability to City
for Contractor’s failure to:
1. Correct conditions unsafe for the Project personnel or general public, or
2. Carry out the Contract; or
3. Carry out orders of City.
G. Responsibilities of Contractor During Suspension Periods
During periods that Work is suspended, Contractor shall continue to be responsible for the Work and
shall prevent damage or injury to the Project, provide for drainage, and shall erect necessary temporary
structures, signs or other facilities required to maintain the Project and continue to perform according
to the Contract Documents.
5.04 TERMINATION BY THE CITY FOR CONVENIENCE
A. Grounds
Without limiting any rights which City may have by reason of any default by Contractor hereunder, City
may terminate Contractor’s performance of the Contract, in whole or in part, at any time, for
convenience upon fifteen (15) calendar days written notice to Contractor.
B. Contractor Actions
Upon receipt of such notice, Contractor shall perform the duties required by Paragraph 5.05 below.
At the election of and as directed by the City, any or all of the subcontracts and purchase orders
entered in to by Contractor prior to the effective date of termination shall be terminated or shall be
assigned to City.
C. Compensation
1. If the Parties are unable to agree on the amount of a termination settlement, the City shall pay
the Contractor the following amounts:
a. For Work performed before the effective date of termination, the total (without duplication of
any items) of:
i. The cost of the Work; and
ii. A sum, as overhead and profit on the cost of the Work, determined by the City to be
fair and reasonable. In no event shall Contractor be entitled to recover overhead or
profit on Work not performed.
b. The reasonable costs of settlement of the Work terminated, including:
i. Accounting, clerical, and other expenses reasonably necessary for the preparation
of termination settlement proposals and supporting data, if any; and
ii. Storage, transportation, and other costs reasonably necessary for the preservation,
protection, or disposition of inventory.
2. Such payment shall be Contractor’s exclusive remedy for termination for convenience and will be
due and payable on the same conditions as set forth for final payment to the extent applicable.
Upon receipt of such payment, the Contractor and City shall have no further obligations to each
other except for Contractor’s obligations with respect to warranties, representations, indemnity,
maintenance of insurance, and other obligations that survive termination or Final Completion as
provided for herein.
3. It is understood and agreed that no fee, anticipated profit, compensation for lost opportunity costs,
or other compensation or payment of any kind or character shall be due or payable for unperformed
Work regardless of the basis of termination and the inclusion of this provision within this
subparagraph shall in no way limit its application to termination under this Paragraph.
4. Contractor agrees that each of its subcontracts will reserve for the Contractor the same right of
termination for convenience provided by this Paragraph 5.04.
D. No Consequential Damages
Under no circumstances shall Contractor be entitled to anticipatory or unearned profits or consequential
or other damages as a result of a termination or partial termination under this Article 5. The payment
to Contractor determined in accordance with this Article constitutes Contractor’s exclusive remedy for
a termination hereunder.
5.05 CONTRACTOR’S DUTIES UPON TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR CONVENIENCE
If the City terminates Contractor’s performance of Work under the Contract, for cause or convenience or if
Contractor terminates a Subcontractor with the City’s approval, Contractor shall:
(1) cease performance of the Work to the extent specified in the notice;
(2) take actions necessary or that the City may direct, for the protection and preservation of the Work;
(3) settle outstanding liabilities, as directed by City;

notice of termination in an organized, usable form, in both hard copy and electronic/digital form, with all items
properly labeled to the degree of detail specified by the City; and,
(6) except for Work directed by City to be performed prior to the effective date of termination stated in the notice,
incur no further costs or expenses and enter into no further subcontracts and purchase orders.
No compensation shall be due Contractor, if any, until Contractor complies with the requirements of this
Paragraph.
[END OF ARTICLE]
ARTICLE 6 – CHANGES
6.01 CITY'S RIGHT TO ORDER CHANGES
The City, without invalidating the Contract, may authorize changes in the Work consisting of additions,
deletions, or other revisions, with the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly, if
necessary. All such changes in the Work shall be authorized by Change Order or Construction Change
Directive and Contractor shall perform such changes in the Work according to the applicable requirements
of the Contract Documents.
6.02 APPLICABLE PROVISIONS
Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. The
Contractor shall proceed promptly and diligently with the change, unless otherwise provided in the Change
Order or Construction Change Directive. It is of the essence to this Contract that all scope changes in the
Work that form the basis of an adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time must be authorized in
advance in writing through either a Change Order or Construction Change Directive. A change in the Contract
Sum or the Contract Time shall be accomplished only by Change Order or Construction Change Directive.
Accordingly, no verbal directions, course of conduct or dealings between the Parties, express or implied
acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work, or claim that the Contract has been abandoned or the City
has been unjustly enriched by any alteration or addition to the Work shall be the basis of any claim for an
increase in any amounts due under the Contract Documents or a change in any time period provided in the
Contract Documents.
6.03 NOTICE OF SCOPE CHANGE
Contractor shall submit written notice of any change in scope to the Director if, in the Contractor’s opinion,
any instruction, request, Drawings, Specifications, action, condition, omission, default, or other situation
occurs that the Contractor believes constitutes a scope change or other matter resulting in Extra Work, for
which Contractor believes it is entitled to an adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time. Such notice
shall be provided prior to performance of the Work affected by such occurrence and within seven (7) calendar
days after the discovery date of the circumstances of such scope change or other matters. The written notice
shall state the date, circumstances, extent of adjustment to the Contact Sum or the Contract Time, if any,
requested. The mere presentation of such notice shall not establish the existence of any right by Contractor
to adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time. Failure to provide such timely written notice described
herein shall constitute a waiver by Contractor of the right to any adjustment to the Contract Sum or Contract
Time on account thereof.
6.04 CHANGE ORDERS
A. Computation
Methods used in determining adjustments to the Contract Sum by Change Order may include those listed in Paragraph 6.06 below.
B. Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement on any Change Order shall be a full compromise and settlement of all adjustments to
Contract Time and Contract Sum, and compensation for any and all delay, extended or additional
field and home office overhead, disruption, acceleration, inefficiencies, lost labor or equipment
productivity, differing Site conditions, construction interferences and other extraordinary or
consequential damages (hereinafter called "Impacts"), including any ripple or cumulative effects of
said Impacts on the overall Work under the Contract arising directly or indirectly from the
performance of Work described in the Change Order. By execution of any Change Order, Contractor
agrees that the Change Order constitutes a complete accord and satisfaction with respect to all
claims for schedule extension, Impacts, or any costs of whatever nature, character or kind arising
out of or incidental to the Change Order. No action, conduct, omission, product failure or course of
dealing by the City shall act to waive, modify, change, or alter the requirement that (i) Change Order's
must be in writing, signed by the City and Contractor and; (ii) that such written Change Orders are
the exclusive method for effectuating any change to the Contract Sum and/or Contract Time.
6.05 CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVE (FIELD DIRECTIVE)
A. A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a
Change Order. The City may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract,
order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletion,
or other revisions, the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly.
B. If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment
shall be calculated in accordance with Paragraph 6.06 herein (Pricing Changes in the Work).
C. Upon receipt of the Construction Change Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the
change in the Work involved and advise the City of the Contractor’s agreement or disagreement with
the method, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive, for determining the proposed
adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time.
D. If Contractor believes a Construction Change Directive constitutes a basis for adjustment to the
Contract Sum or Contract Time, then Contractor shall give a Notice of Scope Change provided in
Paragraph 6.03, followed by a submission of a Change Order Request as required by Paragraph
6.08. Contractor shall, if requested by City in such Construction Change Directive or in a subsequent
Construction Change Directive, proceed with the performance of the Work as described in the
Construction Change Directive. Failure of Contractor to proceed with the performance of Work, as
described in the Construction Change Directive shall give the City the right to carry out the Work, as
set forth in Paragraph 2.05.
E. A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the Contractor’s agreement
therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining
them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
F. If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the
Contract Sum, the method and the adjustment shall be determined by the City on the basis of
reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change,
including, in the case of an increase in the Contract Sum, Allowable Mark-Ups in accordance with
Paragraph 6.06(E) herein.
6.06 PRICING CHANGES IN THE WORK
A. Alternative Methods of Pricing
The amount of any adjustment by Change Order or Construction Change Directive increasing or
decreasing the Contract Sum shall be determined by the Director using one or a combination of the
following methods:
1. Lump Sum. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum proposal from Contractor properly itemized
and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation. Such proposal shall be
based solely on Allowable Costs, as defined in Subparagraph 6.06-C, and Allowable Mark-Ups,
as defined in Subparagraph 6.06-E, and shall not include any costs or expense that is not
permitted by the terms of any provision of the Contract Documents.
2. Unit Prices. By unit prices contained in Contractor’s original Bid and incorporated in the Contract
Documents or fixed by subsequent agreement between City and Contractor. Unless otherwise
stated in the Bidding Documents, unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or agreed upon
by the County and Contractor shall be deemed to include and encompass all Allowable Markups.
3. Time and Materials. By calculating the actual Allowable Costs directly incurred, plus a sum for
Allowable Mark-Ups on such Allowable Costs.
4. Deletion of Work. By Unit Prices contained in Contractor’s original Bid and incorporated in the
Contract Documents, or by using the Schedule of Values to determine the value of the decrease
of the Contract Sum, less the value of any Work performed, plus a reasonable percentage of
the decrease for the Contractor’s saved overhead unless the Schedule of Values allocates
general conditions costs to individual line items, in which case no percentage of the decrease
shall be added. When a change consists of both addition and deletion of Work, the added costs
and deleted costs shall be calculated separately, and then added together, resulting in the net
cost for the change. The Allowable Mark-Up shall be applied to this net cost.
B. Contractor Maintenance of Daily Records for Changes
1. In the event that Contractor is directed to perform any Extra Work, or should Contractor
encounter conditions which the Contractor believes would obligate the City to adjust the Contract
Sum and/or the Contract Time, Contractor shall maintain detailed records of the cost of such
changes on a daily basis summarized in a daily report supplemented by back-up records. Such
records shall include without limitation:
a. Labor. At the close of each day on which such Extra Work is performed, Contractor
shall submit an Extra Work labor report, on forms provided by Director, to Director that
sets forth a list of the actual hours spent in performing the Extra Work, that clearly
differentiates between the labor expended on the Extra Work and other Work, and the
Allowable Costs for such Extra Work performed that day showing the names of
workers, their classifications, hours worked and hourly rates.
b. Materials, Equipment. A list of Allowable Costs of materials and equipment consumed
in the performance of the Extra Work on the day on which such Extra Work is
performed, together with copies of applicable delivery tickets and unit prices for all
materials and for all equipment used the type of equipment, identification number,
hours of operation (including loading and transportation) and hourly/daily rates involved
for that day.
c. Other Services or Expenditures. A list of other services and expenditures constituting
Allowable Costs incurred in performance of the Extra Work on the day on which such
Extra Work is performed, along with documentation verifying the amounts thereof in
such detail as Director may require.
2. In the event that more than one change to the Work is performed by the Contractor in a calendar
day, Contractor shall maintain separate records of labor, construction equipment, materials, and
equipment for each such change. In the event that any Subcontractor of any tier shall provide
or perform any portion of any change to the Work, Contractor shall require that each such
Subcontractor maintain records in accordance with this Section.
3. Each daily record maintained hereunder shall be signed by Contractor; such signature shall be
deemed Contractor’s representation and warranty that all information contained therein is true,
accurate, complete, and relates only to the change referenced therein. All records maintained
by Subcontractors of any tier, relating to the costs of a change in the Work shall be signed by
such Subcontractor’s authorized project manager or superintendent.
All such records shall be forwarded to the Director on the day the Work is performed (same day)
for independent verification. The Director shall attempt to review and reconcile costs for
changes on a daily basis. Records not available on the day on which the Extra Work is
performed, such as, but not limited to, material invoices, shall be submitted as soon as they are
available but not later than five (5) calendar days after the earlier of the day of delivery or
incorporation of the particular item of Extra Work at the Site.
4. The Director may additionally require authentication of all time and material tickets and invoices
by persons designated by the Director for such purpose. In the event that Contractor shall fail
or refuse, for any reason, to maintain or make available for inspection, review, and/or
reproduction such records, adjustments to the Contract Sum or Contract Time, if any, on account
of any change to the Work may be deemed waived for that day. Contractor’s obligation to
maintain back-up records hereunder is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other Contractor
obligation under the Contract Documents with respect to changes to the Work.
5. Waiver by Contractor. Failure to submit such records as are required by this Paragraph daily
shall waive any rights for recovery of Allowable Costs incurred for Extra Work performed that
day. The failure of the Contractor to secure any required authentication shall, if the City elects
in its sole discretion to treat it as such, constitute a waiver by the Contractor of any right to
adjustment of the Contract Sum for the Allowable Cost of all or that portion of the Extra Work
covered by such non-authenticated ticket or invoice.
C. Allowable Costs
The term “Allowable Costs” shall mean in the case of Extra Work actual costs incurred by Contractor
and/or any Subcontractor, regardless of tier, and necessarily involved in direct performance of the
Extra Work, or in the case of deleted work the actual costs that would have been incurred in
performing deleted work by Contractor and/or any Subcontractor, regardless of tier, and shall be
limited to the following costs:
1. Labor. Straight-time wages or salaries, and overtime wages and salaries specifically authorized
by City in writing, for employees employed at the site, or at fabrication sites off the site, in the
direct performance of the Extra Work or that would have been incurred in the direct performance
of the deleted work, based on the actual cost for wages prevailing locally for each craft or type
of workers at the time the Extra Work is done or the deleted work is ordered eliminated. Labor
costs for equipment operators and helpers shall be reported only when such costs are not
included in the invoice for equipment rental. The use of labor classification which would increase
the Allowable Cost for Extra Work will not be permitted unless Contractor establishes the
necessity for such additional costs.
2. Benefits. Payroll taxes, insurance, health and welfare, pension, vacation, apprenticeship funds
and benefits required by lawful collective bargaining agreements for employees on straight-time
wages or salaries, and on overtime wages and salaries specifically authorized by City in writing,
for employees employed at the site, or at fabrication sites off the site, in the direct performance
of the Extra Work or that would have been incurred in the direct performance of the deleted
work.
3. Materials, Consumables. Costs of materials and consumable items which are furnished and
incorporated into the Work, as approved by City, or that would have been incorporated into the
Work in the case of deleted work shall be at the lowest price available to Contractor but in no
event shall such costs exceed competitive wholesale prices obtainable from other
Subcontractors, suppliers, manufacturers and distributors in the general vicinity of the site. If
City determines, in its discretion, that the cost of materials is excessive, or if Contractor fails to
furnish satisfactory evidence of the cost from the actual supplier thereof, then in either case the
cost of the materials shall be deemed to be the lowest wholesale price at which similar materials
are available in the quantities required at the time they were needed. The City reserves the right
to furnish such materials as it deems advisable, and Contractor shall have no claim for costs or
profits on materials so furnished. Material invoices must be included with the extra work report
to obtain payment.
4. Taxes. Sales taxes on the costs of materials and consumable items described in Paragraph
5.04-C.3 above.
5. Tool, Equipment Rental. Rental charges for necessary machinery and equipment, whether
owned or hired, as authorized in writing by City, exclusive of hand tools, used directly in the
performance of the Extra Work or that would have been used in the direct performance of the
deleted work. Regardless of ownership, such rental charges shall not exceed the hourly rate
derived from the most recently published “Rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment”
or the “Rental Rate Blue Book for Older Construction Equipment,” as published by K-111, San
Jose, California, which is in effect at the time of commencement of the changed work. The
Contractor shall attach a copy of the rate schedule to the daily reports required by Paragraph
6.06-B, above. The charges for any machinery and equipment shall cease when the use thereof
is no longer necessary for the Extra Work or deleted work. No charge shall be allowed for use
of equipment or tools which have a replacement value of $500 or less. The allowable rental
rates shall include the cost of fuel, power oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools, necessary
attachments, loading, transportation, repairs and maintenance of any kind, depreciation,
storage, insurance, and all incidentals. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 6.06-E
below, no mark-up shall be allowed for overhead, profit or bond premiums for use of equipment
if the equipment is supplied by an equipment rental firm. If equipment is used intermittently and,
when not in use, could be returned to its rental source at less expense to City than holding it at
the Site, it shall be returned, unless Contractor elects to keep it at the Site at no expense to City.
Costs incurred while equipment is inoperative due to breakdowns, regular maintenance, or for
non-Working Days shall not be allowed. The rental time shall include the time required to move
the equipment to the Work from the nearest available source for rental of such equipment and
to return it to the source. If such equipment is not moved by its own power, then loading and
transportation will be allowed. Neither moving time nor loading and transportation costs will be
paid if the equipment is for use on the Project unrelated to the Extra Work. All equipment shall
be acceptable to City, in good working condition, and suitable for the purpose for which it is to
be used.
6. Royalties. Additional or saved costs of royalties due to the performance of the Extra Work or
deleted work.
7. Insurance, Bonds. Additional or saved costs of insurance and bonds, provided, however, that
for Extra Work such costs shall not exceed one percent (1%) of Items 1 through 6 above.
D. Costs Not Allowed

and shall constitute the markup for all overhead and profits:
Labor 33%
Materials 15%
Equipment Rental 15%
Other Items and Expenditures 15%
1. Extra Work by Subcontractor (Markup): When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a
Subcontractor, the markup provided for the Contractor in 6.06.E.1 shall apply to the
Subcontractor’s actual costs. A markup of 5% on the subcontracted portion of each extra work
may be added for the Contractor.
F. Net Allowable Costs
If anyone scope change involves both Extra Work and deleted work in the same portion of the Work
and the additive allowable costs exceed the deductive allowable costs, the Allowable Markups on
the Extra Work will be only the difference between the two amounts.
6.07 CITY ORIGINATED REQUEST FOR ITEMIZED CHANGE ORDER PROPOSAL REQUEST
City may issue a Construction Change Directive or other written request to Contractor describing a proposed
change to the Work and requesting the Contractor submit an itemized change order proposal in a format
acceptable to City within ten (10) calendar days after City issues the request. The Contractor's change order
proposal shall include an analysis of impacts to cost and time, if any, to perform additional work, change
Work or delete Work, as applicable, including the effects and impacts, if any, on unchanged Work, estimates
of costs (broken down by the cost categories listed in this Paragraph), and Contractor's proposed methods
to minimize costs, delay, and disruption to the performance of the Work. If Contractor fails to submit a written
change order proposal within such period of time, it shall be presumed that the change described in the City's
original proposal request will not result in an increase to the Contract Sum or Contract Time and the change
shall be performed by Contractor without additional compensation to Contractor. City's request for itemized
change order proposal request does not authorize the Contractor to commence performance of the change.
If City desires that the proposed change be performed, the Work shall be authorized according to the Change
Order or Construction Change Directive procedures set forth herein.
6.08 CONTRACTOR ORIGINATED CHANGE ORDER REQUEST (COR)
If the Contractor believes that instructions issued by the City after the effective date of the Contract will result
in changes to the Contract Sum or Contract Time or if the Contractor otherwise becomes aware of the need
for or desirability of a change in the Work, Contractor may submit a written Change Order Request ("COR")
to the City in writing, in a format acceptable to City and in accordance with the notice provisions and other
requirements of Article 7 below for Claims. The COR must specify the reasons for the proposed change, cost
impacts and relevant circumstances and impacts on the Construction Schedule. The document shall be
complete in its description of the Work, its material and labor quantities and detail, and must support and
justify the costs and credits claimed by the Contractor. A Critical Path Method schedule Fragnet is required
to support and justify any additional time of performance requested by the Contractor. The City will not review
any COR which is incomplete. The Contractor may request additional compensation and/or time through a
COR but not for instances that occurred more than ten (10) calendar days prior to the notice date. Contractor's
failure to initiate a COR within this ten-day period or to provide detailed back-up documentation to
substantiate the COR within thirty (30) calendar days of the initial written notice shall be deemed a waiver of
the right to adjustment of the Contract Sum or the Contract Time for the alleged change. Any COR that is
approved by the City shall be incorporated in a Change Order or Construction Change Directive. If the COR
is denied but the Contractor believes that it does have merit, the Contractor shall proceed with the disputed
Work and may submit a Claim in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.
6.09 ISSUANCE OF WORK DIRECTIVE (UNILATERAL).
In the event of a dispute as to whether or not Extra Work is required, City shall have the right to unilaterally
issue a Work Directive; Contractor shall continue performance of disputed Work pending resolution and shall
maintain and submit to City all accounting and cost data necessary to substantiate Contractor’s cost of such
disputed Work.

ARTICLE 7 - CONTRACT PAYMENTS AND CLAIMS
7.01 GENERAL
A. Payment will be made at the price for each item listed on the bidding form or as Extra Work as provided
in the General Conditions.
B. Initial progress payment will not be made prior to approval by the Director of the Schedule of Values,
the Construction Progress Schedule, and the Schedule of Submittals.
C. No subsequent progress payment will be made prior to receipt by the Director of the monthly revision
of the Construction Progress Schedule.
7.02 SCHEDULE OF VALUES FOR PAYMENTS
A. Submission
Upon City’s request, the three (3) lowest bidders shall complete and submit a Preliminary Schedule
of Values, within seven (7) calendar days.
In addition, Contractor shall complete and furnish within seven (7) calendar days after receiving the
Notice of Award of the Construction Contract a Final Schedule of Values giving a complete
breakdown of the Contract Sum for each component of the Work.
B. Content
The Schedule of Values shall be in sufficient detail as the Director may, in its discretion, deem
necessary to evaluate progress at any point in the performance of the Work. Unless otherwise
specified in the Contract Documents, the Schedule of Values shall include, without limitation, a
breakdown of the general categories of Subcontractor work, direct overhead, profit and contingency,
and a further breakdown of the general categories of Subcontractor work into separate trade line
items of costs for Subcontractor services, labor and material, which is based on actual Subcontractor
contract, subcontract, purchase order or vendor prices. If requested by Director, Contractor shall
revise the Schedule of Values to allocate sums for Contractor overhead, profit and/or contingency
among the individual line items for trade portions of the Work. No amounts shall be reflected in the
Schedule of Values or Application for Payment for Extra Work or Deleted Work for which a Change
Order has not been executed by Contractor and City or for which a Construction Change Directive
has not been issued by City. Amounts that have been mutually agreed to by Change Order or
unilaterally determined by City pursuant to a Construction Change Directive shall be segregated from
the cost of the base Contract Work and separately listed by line item in the Schedule of Values. The
Schedule of Values must be prepared in sufficient detail and supported by sufficient data to
substantiate its accuracy as the Director may require.
C. Applications for Payment
The Schedule of Values, when approved by the Director, shall be used as a basis for Contractor's
Applications for Payment and may be considered as fixing a basis for adjustments to the Contract
Sum.
D. Revisions
If, at any time, it is determined that the Schedule of Values does not allocate the Contract Sum in a
manner that reasonably and fairly reflects the actual costs anticipated to be progressively incurred
by Contractor, it shall be revised and resubmitted for the Director’s approval.
7.03 APPLICATIONS FOR PAYMENT
A. Marked Schedule of Values
Five (5) Days prior to the date set forth in Paragraph 7.03-B below for the monthly progress payment
meeting, Contractor shall submit to Director a copy of the proposed Schedule of Values, marked to
show the percentage of completion certified by Contractor for each line item in the Schedule of
Values, including any stored materials approved for payment by City pursuant to Paragraph 7.03-D,
below and any withholdings from Contractor proposed by Director.
B. Monthly Review
For the purpose of expediting the progress payment procedure, Contractor shall meet with the
Director on or before the twentieth (20th) day of each month to review the Contractor's marked
Schedule of Values prepared in accordance with Paragraph 7.03-A, above. The Director shall revise
as appropriate and sign the marked Schedule of Values to verify such review. If any item in the
marked Schedule of Values submitted for payment is disputed during this review, Contractor agrees
to use its best efforts to resolve the disputed items with the Director before submitting its Application
for Payment. If the Director and Contractor cannot agree, then the percentage completion shall be
established at such percentage as the Director, in good faith, determines is appropriate to the actual
progress of the Work. No inaccuracy or error in the Director’s good faith estimate shall operate to
release Contractor or Surety from any responsibility or liability arising from or related to performance
of the Work. The Director shall have the right subsequently to correct any error and dispute any item
submitted in Contractor's Application for Payment, regardless of whether an item was identified as
disputed in the review process provided for herein.

Contract Documents;
3. Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified; and
4. all sums previously applied for by Contractor on account of Work performed by Subcontractors
and that have been paid by City have been paid to the Subcontractors performing such Work,
without any retention, withholding or backcharge by Contractor.
D. Stored Materials
Payments may be made by City, at its discretion, on account of materials or equipment not
incorporated into the Work but delivered on the ground at the Site and suitably stored by Contractor
or stored off-Site under the control of City. Such payments shall only be considered upon submission
by Contractor of satisfactory evidence that it has acquired title to same, that the material or equipment
will be utilized in the Work and that the material is satisfactorily stored, protected and insured, and
that such other procedures are in place satisfactory to City to protect City's interests. To be
considered for payment, materials or equipment stored off-Site shall, in addition to the above
requirements and unless otherwise specifically approved by City in writing, be stored in a bonded
warehouse, fully insured, and available to City for inspection. City shall have sole discretion to
determine the amount of material and equipment that may be stored on the Site at any given time.

pursuant to Paragraph 7.04-B, above without incurring interest pursuant to this Paragraph shall be
reduced by the number of Days by which City exceeds the seven (7) Day return requirement
applicable to City as set forth in Paragraph 7.04-C, above.
7.05 FINAL PAYMENT
A. Retention
ln addition to withholdings permitted by Paragraph 7.09 below, a sum equal to five percent (5%) of
all sums otherwise due to Contractor as progress payments shall be withheld by city pursuant to
Paragraph 7.04-B from each progress payment (“Retention”) and retained until such time as it is due

of Contractor's failing to fully perform all of those obligations that are required to be fulfilled by
Contractor as a condition to Final Completion and Final Payment. Alternatively, City may elect, in its
sole discretion, to accept the Work without correction or completion and adjust the Contract Sum
pursuant to the Contract Documents.
E. Acceptance of Final Payment
Acceptance of Final Payment by Contractor shall constitute a waiver of all rights by Contractor
against City for recovery of any loss, excepting only those Claims that have been submitted by
Contractor in the manner required by the Contract Documents prior to or at the time of the Final
Payment.
7.06 MISCELLANEOUS
A. Joint Payment
City shall have the right, if deemed necessary in its sole discretion, to issue joint checks made
payable to Contractor and any Subcontractor(s) of any Tier. The joint check payees shall be solely
responsible for the allocation and disbursement of funds included as part of any such joint payment.
Endorsement on such check by a payee shall be conclusively presumed to constitute receipt of
payment by such payee. In no event shall any joint check payment be construed to create any
contract between City and a Subcontractor of any Tier, any obligation from City to such Subcontractor
or any third party rights against City or Director.
B. Withholding/Duty to Proceed
The payment, withholding or retention of all or any portion of any payment claimed to be due and
owing to Contractor shall not operate in any way to relieve Contractor from its obligations under the
Contract Documents. Contractor shall continue diligently to prosecute the Work without reference
to the payment, withholding or retention of any payment. The partial payment, withholding or
retention by City in good .faith of any disputed portion of a payment, whether ultimately determined
to be correctly or incorrectly asserted, shall not constitute a breach by City of the Construction
Contract and shall not be grounds for an adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time.
C. No Acceptance
No payment by City or partial or entire use of the Work by City shall be construed as approval or
acceptance of the Work, or any portion thereof.
D. Contractor Payment Warranty
Submission of an Application for Payment shall constitute a representation and warranty by
Contractor that:
1. Title to Work covered by an Application for Payment will pass to City either by incorporation into
the construction or upon receipt of payment by Contractor, whichever occurs first; and
2. Work covered by previous Applications for Payment are free and clear of liens, stop notices,
claims, security interests or encumbrances imposed by the Contractor or any other person.
E. Corrections
No inaccuracy or error in any Application for Payment provided by Contractor shall operate to release
Contractor from the error, or from losses arising from the Work, or from any obligation imposed by
the Contract Documents. City retains the right to subsequently correct any error made in any
previously approved Application for Payment, or progress payment issued, by adjustments to
subsequent payments.
7.07 PAYMENTS BY CONTRACTOR
Contractor shall not include in its Applications for Payment sums on account of any Subcontractor's portion
of the Work that it does not intend to pay to such Subcontractor. Upon receipt of payment from City, Contractor
shall pay the Subcontractor performing Work on the Project, out of the amount paid to Contractor on account
of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled in accordance
with the terms of its contract with Contractor and applicable laws, including, without limitation, California Public
Contract Code Section 7107. Contractor shall remain responsible notwithstanding a withholding by City
pursuant to the terms of these Contract Documents, to promptly satisfy from its own funds sums due to all
Subcontractors who have performed Work that is included in Contractor's Application for Payment. Contractor
shall, by appropriate agreement, require each Subcontractor to make payments to its subcontractors and
material suppliers in similar manner. City shall have no obligation to pay or be responsible in any way for
payment to a Subcontractor of any tier or material supplier.
7.08 PAYMENTS WITHHELD
A. Withholding by City
In addition to any other amounts which City may have the right to retain under the Contract
Documents, City may withhold a sufficient amount of any payment otherwise due to Contractor as
City, in its sole discretion, may deem necessary to cover actual or threatened loss due to any of the
following:
1. Third Party Claims. Third-party claims or stop notices filed or reasonable evidence indicating
probable filing of such claims or stop notices. City shall promptly inform Contractor of any third
party claims related to this Contract
2. Defective Work. Defective Work not remedied;
3. Nonpayment. Failure of Contractor to make proper payments to its Subcontractors for services,
labor, materials or equipment;
4. Inability to Complete. Reasonable doubt that the Work can be completed for the then unpaid

labor laws);
7. Failure to Meet Contract Time. Any damages which may accrue as a result of Contractor failing
to meet the Construction Schedule or failing to perform within the Contract Time;
8. Setoff. Any reason specified elsewhere in the Contract Documents as grounds for a withholding
offset or set off or that would legally entitle City to a set-off or recoupment;
9. Consultant Services. Additional professional, consultant or inspection services required due to
Contractor’s failure to comply with the Contract Documents;
10. Liquidated Damages. Liquidated damages assessed against Contractor;
11. Materials. Materials ordered by City pursuant to the Contract Documents;

16. Other Breach. A breach of any obligation or provision of the Contract Documents.
B. Release of Withholding
If and when City determines, in its sole discretion, that the above grounds for withholding have been
removed and that all losses incurred or threatened have been paid, credited or otherwise satisfied, then
payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them.
C. Application of Withholding
City may apply sums withheld pursuant to Paragraph 7.08-A above, in payment of any loss or
threatened loss as City determines, in its sole discretion, to be appropriate. Such payments may be
made without a prior judicial determination of City’s actual rights with respect to such loss. Contractor
agrees and hereby designates City as its agent for such purposes, and agrees that such payments
shall be considered as payments made under Construction Contract by City to Contractor. City shall
not be liable to Contractor for such payments made in good faith. City shall submit to Contractor an
accounting of such funds disbursed on behalf of Contractor. As an alternative to such payment, city
may, in its sole discretion, elect to exercise its right to adjust the Contract Sum as provided in the
Contract Documents.
D. Continuous Performance
Provided City pays the undisputed portion, if any, of funds withheld in good faith, Contractor shall
maintain continuous and uninterrupted performance of the Work during the pendency of any disputes
or disagreements with City.
7.09 SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES
A. Public Contract Code
Pursuant to the requirements of California Public Contract Code Section 22300, upon Contractor’s
request, City will make payment to Contractor of any funds withheld from payments to ensure
performance under the Contract Documents if Contractor deposits with City, or in escrow with a
California or federally chartered bank in California acceptable to City (“Escrow Agent”), securities
eligible for the investment of State Funds under Government Code Section 16430, or bank or savings
and loan certificates of deposit, interest-bearing demand deposit accounts, standby letters of credit, or
any other security mutually agreed to by the Contractor and the City, upon the following conditions:
1. Contractor shall be the beneficial owner or any securities substituted for monies withheld for the
purpose of receiving any interest thereon.
2. All expenses relating to the substitution of securities under Public Contract Code Section 22300
and under this Paragraph 7.04, including, but not limited to City’s overhead and administrative
expenses, and expenses of Escrow Agent shall be the responsibility of Contractor.
3. Securities or certificates of deposit substituted for monies withheld shall be of a value of at least
equivalent to the amounts of retention to be paid to Contractor pursuant to the Contract
Documents.
4. If Contractor chooses to deposit securities in lieu of monies withheld with an Escrow Agent,
Contractor, City and Escrow Agent shall, as a prerequisite to such deposit, enter into an escrow
agreement, using the City’s form, “Escrow Agreement for Deposit of Securities in Lieu of
Retention.”
5. Contactor shall obtain the written consent of Surety to such agreement.
6. Securities, if any, shall be returned to Contractor only upon satisfactory Final Completion of the
Work.
B. Substitute Security
To minimize the expense caused by such substitution of securities, Contractor shall, prior to or at the
time Contractor requests to substitute security, deposit sufficient security to cover the entire amount to
be withheld. Should the current market value of such substituted security fall below the amount for
which it was substituted, or any other amounts which the City withholds pursuant to the Contract
Documents, Contractor shall immediately and at Contractor’s expense and at no cost to City deposit
additional security qualifying under Public Contract Code Section 22300 until the current market value
of the total security deposited is no less than the amount subject to withholding under the Contract
Documents. Securities shall be valued as often as conditions of the securities market warrant, but in
no case less frequently than once per month.
C. Deposit of Retentions
Alternatively, subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.04-A above, upon request of
Contractor, City shall make payment of retentions directly to Escrow Agent at the expense of
Contractor, provided that Contractor, City and Escrow Agent shall, as a prerequisite such payment,
enter into an escrow agreement in the same form as prescribed in Part 4 of Paragraph A, above. At
the expense of Contractor and at no cost to City, Contractor may direct the investment of the
payments into securities and interest bearing accounts, and Contractor shall receive the interest
earned on the investments. Escrow Agent shall hold such direct payments by City under the same
terms provided herein for securities deposited by Contractor. Upon satisfactory Final Completion of
the Work, Contractor shall receive from Escrow Agent all securities, interest and payments received
by Escrow Agent from City, less escrow fees and charges of the Escrow Account, according to the
terms of Public Contract Code Section 22300 and the Contract Documents.
D. Time for Election of Substitution of Securities
Notwithstanding the provision of 7.04 A, B, and C above and California Public Contract Code Section
22300, the failure of Contractor to request the Substitution of eligible securities for monies to be withheld
by City within ten (10) days of the award of Contract to Contractor shall be deemed to be a waiver of
all such rights.
7.10 CLAIMS
A. Arising of Claim.
1. Scope Change. When Contractor has a claim for an increase in the Contract Sum or Contract
Time due to a scope change which has not yet become final, a “claim” will be deemed to arise
once the Director has issued a decision denying, in whole or in part, the Contractor’s Change
Order Request.
2. Other Claims. In the case of a Claim by Contractor that does not involve an adjustment to the
Contract Sum or Contract Time due to a scope change and which has not become final, the
Claim may be asserted if, and only if, Contractor gives written notice to City of intent to file the
Claim within three (3) days of the date of discovery relative to such circumstances (even if
Contractor has not yet been damaged or delayed). Such written notice of intent to file a Claim
shall be valid if, and only if, it identifies the event or condition giving rise to the Claim, states its
probable effect, if any with respect to Contractor's entitlement to an adjustment of the Contract
Sum or Contract Time and complies with the requirements of Paragraph 7.11-B, below. For
purposes of this Paragraph 7.11, a Claim for which such written notice is required and has been
given by Contractor shall be deemed to arise on the date that such written notice is received by
City.
B. Content of Claim
A Claim by Contractor must include all of the following:
1. A statement that it is a Claim and a request for a decision on the Claim;
2. A detailed description of the act, error, omission, unforeseen condition, event or other
circumstance giving rise to the Claim.
3. If the Claim involves an adjustment to the Contract Sum or Contract Time due to a change in
scope, a statement demonstrating that all requisite notices were provided, including, without
limitation, timely written notice and a Change Order Request as required by Article 6 of these
General Conditions and timely notice of delay and request for extension of time in accordance
with Article 3. If the Claim does not involve an adjustment to the Contract Sum or Contract Time
due to a change in scope, a statement demonstrating that a notice of intent to file the Claim was
timely submitted as required by Paragraph 7.10-A.2, above;
4. A detailed justification for any remedy or relief sought by the Claim including without limitation,

employees, Subcontractors, Sub-Subcontractors, design consultants or any person for whose acts any of them

an Indemnitee, including but not limited to:
A. Bodily injury, emotional injury, sickness or disease, or death to any persons;
B. Infringement of any patent rights, licenses, copyrights or intellectual property which may be brought

whose acts they may be liable, the Contractor’s indemnification and defense obligations shall not be limited by
a limitation on amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for the Contractor or a
Subcontractor under workers’ compensation acts, disability benefits acts, or other employee benefits acts.

to the Director within seven (7) Days after the Director rejects all or a portion of Contractor’s Claim.
Contractor’s Statement of Dispute shall be signed under penalty of perjury and shall state with
specificity the events or circumstances giving rise to the Claim, the dates of their occurrence and the
effect, if any, on the compensation due or performance obligations of Contractor under the Construction
Contract. Such Statement of Dispute shall include adequate supporting data to substantiate the

of Dispute submitted by Contractor involving Contractor’s compensation shall include a detailed cost
breakdown and supporting cost data in such form and including such detailed information and other
supporting data as required to demonstrate the grounds for, and precise amount of, the Claim.
B. By City
City’s right to commence the Claims Dispute Resolution Process shall arise at any time following the
City’s actual discovery of the circumstances giving rise to the Claim. Nothing contained herein shall
preclude City from asserting Claims in response to a Claim asserted by Contractor. A Statement of
Dispute submitted by City shall state the events or circumstances giving rise to the Claim, the dates of
their occurrence and the damages or other relief claimed by City as a result of such events.
C. Claims Defined
The term “claims” as used herein shall be as defined in California Public Contract Code § 20104(b)(2).
15.02 CLAIMS DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS
The parties shall utilize each of the following steps in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process in the sequence
they appear below. Each party shall participate fully and in good faith in each step in the Claims Dispute
Resolution Process, which good faith effort shall be a condition precedent to the right of each party to proceed
to the next step in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process.
A. Direct Negotiations
Designated representatives of City and Contractor shall meet as soon as possible (but not later than
ten (10) Days after receipt of the Statement of Dispute) in a good faith effort to negotiate a resolution
to the Claim. Each party shall be represented in such negotiations by an authorized representative
with full knowledge of the details of the Claim or defenses being asserted by such party, and with full
authority to resolve such Claim then and there, subject only to City’s right and obligation to obtain City
Council [or other City official] approval of any agreed settlement or resolution. In the Claim involves the
assertion of a right or claim by a Subcontractor against Contractor that is in turn being asserted by
Contractor against City, then such Subcontractor shall also have a representative attend such
negotiations, with the same authority and knowledge as just described. Upon completion of the
meeting, if the Claim is not resolved, the parties may either continue the negotiations or either party
may declare negotiations ended. All discussions that occur during such negotiations and all documents
prepared solely for the purpose of such negotiations shall be confidential and privileged pursuant to
California Evidence Code Sections 1119 and 1152.
B. Deferral of Claims
Following the completion of the negotiations required by Paragraph 15.02-A., all unresolved Claims,
except those that do not involve parties other than the Contractor and City, shall be deferred pending
Final Completion of the Work, subject to City’s right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to require that
the claims Dispute Resolution Process proceed prior to Final Completion. In the event that City does
not elect to proceed with the Claims Dispute Resolution Process prior to Final Completion of the Work,
all Claims that have been deferred until such Final Completion shall be consolidated within a
reasonable time after such Final Completion and thereafter pursued to resolution pursuant to the Claims
Dispute Resolution Process. Nothing contained in this Article 15 shall be interpreted as limiting the
parties’ rights to continue informal negotiations of Claims that have been deferred until such Final
Completion; provided, however, that such informal negotiations shall not be interpreted as altering the
provisions of this Article 15 deferring final determination and resolution of unresolved Claims until after
Final Completion of the Work.
C. Legal Proceedings
If the Claim is not resolved by direct negotiations then the party wishing to further pursue resolution or
determination of the Claim shall submit the Claim for determination by commencing legal proceedings
in a court of competent jurisdiction.
15.03 NO WAIVER
Participation in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process shall not constitute a waiver, release or compromise of
any defense of either party, including, without limitation, any defense based on the assertion that the rights of
Contractor that are the basis of a Claim were previously waived by Contractor due to failure to comply with the
Contract Documents, including, without limitation, Contractor’s failure to comply with any time periods for
providing notices or for submission or supporting documentation of Claims.

exclusive use of the City, in which case no excise tax for such materials shall be included in the Bid or
Contract Sum.
C. Notice of Violations
Contractor shall immediately notify the City and Director in writing of any instruction received from the
City, Director, Architect or other person or entity that, if implemented, would cause a violation of any
applicable law or lawful order of a governmental authority. If Contractor fails to provide such notice,
then Director shall be entitled to assume that such instruction is in compliance with applicable laws and
lawful orders of governmental authorities. If Contractor observes that any portion of the Drawings and
Specifications or Work are at variance with applicable laws or lawful orders of governmental authorities,
or should Contractor become aware of conditions not covered by the Contract Documents which will
result in Work being at variance therewith, Contractor shall promptly notify Director in writing. If, without
such notice to Director, Contractor or any Subcontractor performs any Work which it knew, or through
the exercise of reasonable care should have known, was contrary to lawful orders of governmental
authorities or applicable laws, then Contractor shall bear all resulting losses at its own expense, at no
cost to City and without adjustment to the Contract Sum.
17.02 OWNERSHIP OF DESIGN DOCUMENTS
A. Property of City
All Design Documents, Contract Documents and Submittals (including, without limitation, all copies
thereof) and all designs and building designs depicted therein are and shall remain the sole and
exclusive property of the City and the City shall solely and exclusively hold all copyrights thereto.
Without derogation the City’s rights under this Paragraph, the Contractor and Subcontractors are
granted a limited, non-exclusive license, revocable at will of City, to use and reproduce applicable
portions of the Contract Documents and Submittals as appropriate to and for use in the execution of
the Work and for no other purpose.
B. Documents on Site

and City’s Consultants, a complete set of the Contract Documents that have been approved by
applicable Governmental Authorities.
C. Delivery to City
All Design Documents, Contract Documents and Submittals in the possession of Contractor or
Subcontractors shall be returned to the City upon the earlier of Final Completion or termination of the
Construction Contract; provided, however, that Contractor and each Subcontractor shall have the right
to retain one (1) copy of the Contract Documents and Submittals for its permanent records
D. Subcontractors
Contractor shall take all necessary steps to assure that a provision is included in all subcontracts with
Subcontractors, of every tier, who perform Work on the Project establishing, protecting and preserving
the, City’s rights set forth in this Paragraph.
17.03 AMENDMENTS
The Contract Documents may be amended only by a written instrument duly executed by the parties or their
respective successors or assigns.
17.04 WAIVER
Either party's waiver of any breach or failure to enforce any of the terms, covenants, conditions or other
provisions of the Contract Documents at any time shall not in any way limit or waive that party's right thereafter
to enforce or compel strict compliance with every term, covenant, condition or other provision, any course of
dealing or custom of the trade notwithstanding. Furthermore, if the parties make and implement any
interpretation of the Contract Documents without documenting such interpretation by an instrument in writing
signed by both parties, such interpretation and implementation thereof will not be binding in the event of any
future disputes.
17.05 INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Contractor is an independent contractor, and nothing contained in the Contract Documents shall be construed
as constituting any relationship with City other than that of Project owner and independent contractor. In no
event shall the relationship between City and Contractor be construed as creating any relationship whatsoever
between City and Contractor's employees. Neither Contractor nor any of its employees is or shall be deemed
to be an employee of City. Except as otherwise specified in the Contract Documents, Contractor has sole
authority and responsibility to employ, discharge and otherwise control its employees and has complete and
sole responsibility as a principal for its agents, for all Subcontractors and for all other Persons that Contractor
or any Subcontractor hires to perform or assist in performing the Work.
17.06 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS
The Contract Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of City and Contractor and their
permitted successors, assigns and legal representatives.
A. City may assign all or part of its right, title and interest in and to any Contract Documents, including
rights with respect to the Payment and Performance Bonds, to (a) any other governmental person
as permitted by governmental rules, provided that the successor or assignee has assumed all of
City's obligations, duties and liabilities under the Contract Document then in effect; and (b) any other
Person with the prior written approval of Contractor.
B. Contractor may collaterally assign its rights to receive payment under the Contract Documents.
Contractor may not delegate any of its duties hereunder, except to Subcontractors as expressly
otherwise permitted in the Contract Documents. Contractor's assignment or delegation of any of its
Work under the Contract Documents shall be ineffective to relieve Contractor of its responsibility for
the Work assigned or delegated, unless City, in its sole discretion, has approved such relief from
responsibility.
Any assignment of money shall be subject to all proper set-offs and withholdings in favor of City and
to all deductions provided for in the Contract. All money withheld, whether assigned or not, shall be
subject to being used by City for completion of the Work, should Contractor be in default.
C. Except for the limited circumstances set forth in Paragraph 17.06-B, above, Contractor may not,
without the prior written consent of City in its sole discretion, voluntarily or involuntarily assign,
convey, transfer, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber its rights or interests under the Contract

transfer, pledge, mortgage or otherwise encumber its ownership interest in Contractor without the
prior written consent of City, in City’s sole discretion.

Contractor’s representations and warranties, the dispute resolution provisions contained in Article 15, and all
other provisions which by their inherent character should survive termination of the Contract and/or Final
Acceptance, shall survive the termination of the Contract and the Final Acceptance Date.
17.08 LIMITATION ON THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES
It is not intended by any of the provisions of the Contract Documents to create any third party beneficiary
hereunder or to authorize anyone not a party hereto to maintain a suit for personal injury or property damage
pursuant to the terms or provisions hereof, except to the extent that specific provisions (such as the warranty
and indemnity provisions) identify third parties and state that they are entitled to benefits hereunder. The
duties, obligations and responsibilities of the parties to the Contract Documents with respect to such third
parties shall remain as imposed by law. The Contract Documents shall not be construed to create a
contractual relationship of any kind between City and a Subcontractor or any other Person except Contractor.
17.09 PERSONAL LIABILITY OF CITY EMPLOYEES
City’s authorized representatives are acting solely as agents and representatives of City when carrying out
the provisions of or exercising the power or authority granted to them under the Contract. They shall not be
liable either personally or as employees of City for actions in their ordinary course of employment.
No agent, consultant, Council member, officer or authorized employee of City, shall be personally responsible
for any liability arising under the Contract.
17.10 NO ESTOPPEL
City shall not, nor shall any officer thereof, be precluded or estopped by any measurement, estimate or
certificate made or given by the City representative or other officer, agent, or employee of City under any
provisions of the Contract from at any time (either before or after the final completion and acceptance of the
Work and payment therefor) pursuant to any such measurement, estimate or certificate showing the true and
correct amount and character of the work done, and materials furnished by Contractor or any person under
the Contract or from showing at any time that any such measurement, estimate or certificate is untrue and
incorrect, or improperly made in any particular, or that the work and materials, or any part thereof, do not in
fact conform to the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding any such measurement, estimate or certificate, or
payment made in accordance therewith, City shall not be precluded or estopped from recovering from
Contractor and its Sureties such damages as City may sustain by reason of Contractor’s failure to comply or
to have complied with the Contract Documents.
17.11 GOVERNING LAW
The laws of the State of California govern the construction and interpretation of the Contract Documents,
without regard to conflict of law principles. Unless the Contract Documents provide otherwise, any reference
to laws, ordinances, rules, or regulations include their later amendment, modifications, and successor
legislation. If Contractor or City brings a lawsuit to enforce or interpret one or more provisions of the Contract
Documents, jurisdiction is in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, California, or where otherwise
appropriate, in the United States District Court, Central District of California. Contractor and City acknowledge
that the Contract Documents were negotiated, entered into, and executed—and the Work was performed—in
the City of Vernon, California.
17.12 FURTHER ASSURANCES
Contractor shall promptly execute and deliver to City all such instruments and other documents and
assurances as are reasonably requested by City to further evidence the obligations of Contractor hereunder,
including assurances regarding assignments of Subcontractors contained herein.
17.13 SEVERABILITY
If any clause, provision, section, paragraph or part of the Contract is ruled invalid by a court having proper
jurisdiction, then the parties shall: (a) promptly meet and negotiate a substitute for such clause, provision,
section, paragraph or part, which shall, to the greatest extent legally permissible, effect the original intent of
the parties, including an equitable adjustment to the Contract Price to account for any change in the Work
resulting from such invalidated portion; and (b) if necessary or desirable, apply to the court or other decision
maker (as applicable) which declared such invalidity for an interpretation of the invalidated portion to guide
the negotiations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such clause, provision, section, paragraph or part
shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the balance of the Contract, which shall be construed and
enforced as if the Contract did not contain such invalid or unenforceable clause, provision, section, paragraph
or part.
17.14 HEADINGS
The captions of the sections of the Contract are for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of the
Contract or considered in construing the Contract.
17.15 ENTIRE AGREEMENT
The Contract Documents contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter
hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, statements, representations and negotiations
between the parties with respect to its subject matter.
17.16 COUNTERPARTS
This instrument may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but
all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

additional insureds, not limiting coverage for the additional insured to “ongoing operations” or in any way excluding
coverage for completed operations. Coverage shall apply on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other
insurance or self-insurance, primary or excess, available to City or any employee, representative or agent of City.
Coverage shall not be limited to the vicarious liability or supervisory role of any additional insured. Coverage shall
contain no contractors’ limitation or other endorsement limiting the scope of coverage for liability arising from explosion,
collapse, or underground property damage.
1. CGL insurance must not be written for less than the limits of liability specified as follows:
(a) ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury (including
accidental death) to any one person;
(b) ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000) per occurrence for personal and
advertising injury to any one person;
(c) ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($1,000,000) per occurrence for property damage; and

defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion
and no contractor’s limitation endorsement. The policy shall have starting and ending dates
concurrent with the underlying coverages. The Named Insured may determine the layering
of primary and excess liability insurance provided that if such layering differs from that
described here, the actual coverage program meets the minimum total required limits and
complies with all other requirements listed here.
C. Business Automobile Liability Insurance
1. Business Automobile Liability Insurance must cover all vehicles, whether rented, leased,
hired, scheduled, owned or non-owned. If Contractor does not own any vehicles, this

accidental death) to any one person; and

claim and in the aggregate. Coverage shall apply to bodily injury; property damage,
including loss of use of damaged property or of property that has not been physically inured;
cleanup costs; and costs of defense, including costs and expenses incurred in the
investigation, defense, or settlement of claims.
3. All activities contemplated in the Contract shall be specifically scheduled on the CPL policy
as “covered operations.” In addition, the policy shall provide coverage for the hauling of

The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a portion of the Clean Water
Act that applies to the protection of receiving waters. Under permits from the Los Angeles
Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), certain activities are subject to RWQCB
enforcement. To meet the standards of the Waste Discharge Requirements for Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Discharges within the Coastal Watershed of Los Angeles
County, Except those Discharges Originating from the City of Long Beach MS4 (CAS004001),
the City of Vernon has adopted minimum standards for stormwater runoff from development
construction activities.
These minimum standards require the implementation of an effective combination of erosion
and sediment control Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent erosion and sediment loss,
and the discharge of construction waste at each site. At a minimum, the construction activity
associated with the construction project identified above shall be conducted in such a manner
that:
Prevents illicit construction-related discharges of pollutants into the MS4 and receiving
waters.
Implements and maintains structural and non-structural BMPs to reduce pollutants in
stormwater runoff from construction sites.
Reduces construction site discharges of pollutants to the MS4 to the maximum extent
practicable.
Prevents construction site discharges to the MS4 from causing or contributing to a
violation of water quality standards.
Note: The Stormwater BMP Construction Handbook sheets developed by the California
Stormwater Quality Association shall be used as guidance in determining and implementing
required BMPs. The BMP sheets may be reviewed at the Public Works Department counter
during regular business hours. A General Construction Permit shall be obtained and maintained
for all construction sites one (1) acre or greater. Additional conditions may be required for
these sites.

may be necessary to complete the project in accordance with the requirements of
the Contract. The cost of all mobilization, preparatory work and operations for the
multiple movements of personnel, equipment, supplies, and incidentals to the
various project sites must be included in the various bid items, and no extra
compensation will be paid to Contractor.
B. The Bidder shall state for each item on the Schedule of Bid Prices form, in clearly
legible figures, the Base Bid, the alternates, and the unit price and item total or lump
sum, as the case may be, for which he/she proposes to supply labor, materials, and
equipment and to perform the Work. Bids must not contain any erasures,
interlineations, strike-throughs or other corrections unless the same are suitably
authenticated by affixing in the margin immediately opposite such erasure or
correction the initials of the person(s) signing the Bid. If any Bid, or portion
thereof, is determined by the City to be illegible, ambiguous or inconsistent, City
may reject such a Bid as being non-responsive.
C. In the case of a unit price item, the amount set forth, as the item total shall be the
product of the estimated quantity times the unit price Bid. In the event of a
discrepancy between the unit price Bid and the item total, the unit price shall
prevail; however, if the unit price is ambiguous, unintelligible, or uncertain for
any cause, or is omitted, or is the same amount as the entry for the item total, then the item total
shall prevail and shall be divided by the estimated quantity for the item and the price thus
obtained shall be the unit price. Where so indicated by the makeup of the Bid Form, sums shall
be expressed in both words and figures, and in case of discrepancy between the two, the amount
written in words shall govern.
D. All requested Alternates, if any, shall be Bid. See the Schedule of Bid Prices for
more information and the list of Bid Alternates, if any. If no change in the Base
Bid is required, enter “No Change.”
7. BID SECURITY
A. Each Bid shall be accompanied by cash or a cashier’s check or a certified check,
drawn on a responsible bank doing business in the United States payable to the
City, or a satisfactory Bid Bond in favor of the City executed by the Bidder as a
principal and a California admitted surety company (as defined by California Code
of Civil Procedure §§995.120 and 995.311) as surety (“Bid Security”).
B. All bonds must be issued by a California admitted surety insurer with the minimum
A.M Best Company Financial strength rating of “A:VII” or better. Bonds issued
by a California admitted surety not listed on Treasury Circular 570 will be deemed
accepted unless specifically rejected by the City. Bonds issued from admitted
surety insurers not listed in Treasury Circular 570 must be accompanied by all
documents enumerated in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.660. All
such bonds must be accompanied by a power of attorney from the surety company
authorizing the person executing the bond to sign on behalf of the company. If the
bonds are executed outside the State of California, all copies of the bonds must be
countersigned by a California representative of the surety. The signature of the
person executing the bond on behalf of Surety must be acknowledged by a Notary
Public as the signature of the person designated in the power of attorney.
C. Bid Security shall be in an amount not less than 10% of the Base Bid. Any Bid
submitted without Bid Security will be rejected as non-responsive. The Bid
Security shall be given as a guarantee that the successful Bidder will execute the
Contract and will provide the insurance, bonds and other required forms within
fourteen (14) calendar days after award of the Contract. Bidders will be entitled to
return of Bid Security except when a successful Bidder forfeits its Bid Security. A
forfeit may occur, for example, if the successful Bidder withdraws its Bid prior to
the expiration of ninety (90) calendar days after award of the Contract; attempts to
withdraw its Bid when the requirements of Public Contract Code § 5101 et seq. are
not met; or refuses or fails to execute the Contract and provide the required bonds,
insurance or certificates within fourteen (14) calendar days after award of the
Contract. In any one or more of these events, if City awards the Contract for the
Work to the next lowest responsible Bidder, the amount of the original lowest
Bidder’s security shall be applied to the Contract Price differential between the
lowest Bid and the second lowest Bid. Any surplus will be returned to the original
lowest Bidder. If the City rejects all other Bids presented and re-advertises, the
lowest Bidder’s Bid Security may be used to offset the City’s cost of re-advertising
and receiving new Bids. In that case, the surplus if any, will be returned to the
original lowest Bidder.
D. The Bid Security shall be held for ninety (90) calendar days after the award of the
Contract or until posting by the successful Bidder of the payment and performance
bonds, proof of insurance, return of executed copies of the Contract and necessary
certification(s), whichever first occurs, after which time the Bid Security will be
returned to all Bidders.
E. If a Bid Bond is to be submitted, Bidder shall use the form entitled "Bid Bond"
contained in the Bidding Documents, which Bid Bond shall be properly executed
and acknowledged by the Bidder and by a corporate surety authorized to transact
such business in the State of California.
F. Any alteration of said form of Bid Bond, or imperfection in the execution thereof,
as herein required, will render it informal and may, at the option of the City, result
in the rejection of the Bid under which the Bid Bond is submitted.
8. BIDDER'S AND SPECIALTY CONTRACTORS’ STATEMENTS OF
QUALIFICATIONS
A. Each Bidder shall be required to complete, execute and submit with its Bid, the
form entitled "Bidder's Statement of Qualifications." Notwithstanding the
provisions of Paragraph 22 herein, the Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications shall
not be public records. All information required by a Bidder’s Statement of
Qualifications shall be completely and fully provided. If no information is to be
filled in a blank space, then write "none." Any Bid not accompanied by a Bidder’s
Statement of Qualifications form completed with all information required may
render the Bid non-responsive. If the City determines that any information
provided by a Bidder in the Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications is false or
misleading, or is incomplete so as to be false or misleading, the City may reject the
Bid submitted by such Bidder as being non-responsive.
B. A responsible Bidder is a Bidder who has demonstrated the attribute of
trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness, capacity and experience to satisfactorily
perform fully the requirements of the contract documents. In selecting the lowest
responsible Bidder, consideration will be given not only to the Bidder’s financial
standing but also to the general competency of the Bidder for the performance of
the work covered by the Bid including, but not limited to, the experience of the
Bidder in construction of public buildings for public agencies. By submitting a
Bid, each Bidder agrees that the City, in determining the successful Bidder and its
eligibility for the award, may consider the Bidder’s experience with similar types
of construction projects and facilities, conduct and performance under other
contracts, financial condition, reputation in the industry, and other factors which
could affect the Bidder’s performance of the work.
9. DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS
A. Subcontractor Listing. On the Designation of Subcontractors form, the Bidder shall
list each Subcontractor whom the Bidder must disclose under the Subletting and
Subcontracting Fair Practice Act, Public Contract Code Section 4104. The Bidder
shall provide: each Subcontractor’s name, the trade and type of work that the
Subcontractor will perform, the location (address) of the Subcontractor’s place of
business, each Subcontractor’s license number, and the dollar value of each
Subcontractor’s labor or services. If additive Alternate Bid Items are included in
the Bidding Documents, the Bidder shall identify each Subcontractor performing
additive Alternate Bid Items, when such Work — or the combination of base
Contract Work and Alternate Work — exceeds one-half of one percent of the total
Bid Amount.
B. Subcontractors’ Licenses. At the time of the Bid Deadline and at all times during
performance of the Work, each listed Subcontractor shall possess a current and
active California Contractor’s license appropriate for the portion of the Work listed
for such Subcontractor, and hold all specialty certifications required for such Work.
C. Disqualification of a Subcontractor. The City has the right to review the suitability
and qualifications of any Subcontractor proposed by the Bidder. As part of this
review, the City may request a Bidder to submit additional information about one
or more of the listed Subcontractors—including, but not limited to—a statement
detailing the Subcontractor’s experience with pertinent information as to similar
projects and other evidence of the Subcontractor’s qualifications. If requested, the
Bidder shall provide the information to the City within the time specified in the
City’s written request. After due investigation, if the City has a reasonable
objection to any proposed Subcontractor, the City may, before giving the notice of
award, require the apparent successful Bidder to submit an acceptable substitute.
The City’s disqualification of a Subcontractor does not disqualify a Bidder.
However, prior to and as a condition to award of the Contract, the successful Bidder
shall substitute a properly licensed and qualified Subcontractor without an
adjustment of the Bid Price.
D. Work of Subcontractors. The organization or arrangement of the Specifications
and Drawings do not limit the extent of the Work for the Contract Documents.
Accordingly, all Bidders are encouraged to disseminate all of the Specifications,
Drawings and other Contract Documents to all persons or entities submitting sub-
bids to the Bidder. The omission of any portion or item of Work from the Bid or
from sub-bids, which is reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents, will
not be a basis for adjustment of the Contract Price or the Contract Time.
E. Ineligible Subcontractors. The successful Bidder is prohibited from performing
Work on the Project with any Subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on
a public works project pursuant to California Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or
1777.7. In submitting its Bid, the Bidder certifies that it has investigated the
eligibility of each and every listed Subcontractor and has determined that none is
ineligible to perform work pursuant to the above code provisions.
10. CONTRACTOR’S NONCOLLUSION AFFIDAVIT
A Noncollusion Affidavit in the form provided by the City shall be signed under penalty
of perjury, certifying that the Bid is not the result of and has not been influenced by
collusion. Bidder shall submit this form with its Bid. Any Bid made without such affidavit,
or believed to be made in violation of the requirements set forth in the affidavit form, may
be rejected.
11. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
The Bidder shall submit to its insurance company or insurance agent the Insurance
Requirements in this Specification and the Contract Documents. The insurance company’s
underwriter or agent must complete the Insurance Requirements documentation which
states that the insurer’s underwriter or agent will furnish the City with the required
insurance documents within fourteen (14) days after the Bidder’s having been notified of
the Contract’s award. The Bidder shall submit this form with its Bid. Any Bid made
without this statement, or made with an incomplete statement, may be rejected.
12. EXAMINATION OF DRAWINGS, SPECIFICATIONS, AND SITE OF WORK
A. The Bidder shall examine carefully the site of the Work contemplated and the
Drawings and Specifications. The submission of a Bid will be conclusive evidence
that the Bidder has investigated and is satisfied as to the conditions to be
encountered, as to the character, quality, and quantities of Work to be performed
and materials to be furnished, the difficulties to be encountered, and to the
requirements of the Drawings, Specifications, and other Contract Documents. The
Bidder shall ascertain the locations of the existing utility services, and other
underground facilities, and provide for carrying out its operations so as to cause the
minimum possible inconvenience to the occupants of properties along any streets
affected. All Work and costs involved in the safeguarding of the properties of
others shall be at the expense of the Bidder to whom the Contract may be awarded.
B. The Bidder hereby certifies that it has examined the local conditions, has read each
and every clause of the Contract Documents, and that it has included all costs
necessary to complete the specified Work in its Bid prices, and the Bidder agrees
that if it is awarded the Contract, it will make no claim against the City based upon
ignorance of local conditions or misunderstanding of any of the provisions of the
Contract. Should the conditions turn out otherwise than the Bidder anticipated, the
Bidder agrees to assume all risks incident thereto.
13. PRICES AND PAYMENTS
Approximate quantities listed in the Schedule of Bid Prices are estimates given for
comparing Bids, and no claim shall be made against the City for excess or deficiency
therein, actual or relative. Payment at the prices agreed upon will be in full for the
completed Work and will cover materials, supplies, labor, tools, equipment, and all other
expenditures incident to a satisfactory compliance with the Contract, subject to all
applicable provisions in the Contract and General Conditions.
14. PERMIT FEES
The City of Vernon shall obtain all Governmental Approvals and Utility Fees as required
for the construction of this project. It is the responsibility of the contractor to procure all
permits acquired for this project.
15. SUBSTITUTIONS
No requests for substitution of any material, device, product, equipment, fixture, form, or
type of construction shall be considered by City prior to award of the Contract. Bidders
shall submit all requests for substitution and substantiating data, within fifteen (15)
calendar days from the date of the Notice to Proceed. Bidder shall refer to the appropriate
provisions of the General Conditions for additional information regarding substitutions.
Authorization of a substitution is solely within the discretion of the City.
16. RETURN OF IMPROPER BIDS
Bids submitted after the Bid Deadline are non-responsive and shall be returned to the
Bidder unopened. Oral, telephonic, telegraphic, facsimile or electronically transmitted
Bids shall not be considered unless the Notice Inviting Bids expressly permits such means
of transmittal.
17. WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS
Bidder may withdraw its Bid either personally or by written request any time prior to the
scheduled Bid Deadline by notice to the City’s Contact Person designated in the Notice
Inviting Bids. If such notice is written, it shall be signed by the Bidder and shall be date-
stamped and time-stamped by the City upon receipt. Withdrawn Bids may be resubmitted

to Bidders. Once submitted, all Bids are irrevocable, except as otherwise provided by law.
Requests for withdrawal of Bids after the Bid Deadline shall be made only in accordance
with California Public Contract Code § 5100, et seq. Bidder agrees by submitting a Bid
that such Bid shall remain open, is irrevocable, and may not be modified, withdrawn, or
cancelled for a period of ninety (90) days after award of the Contract.
18. OPENING AND EVALUATION OF BIDS
A. Bid Opening and Tabulation. The Bids shall be opened and read in public after
the Bid Deadline has expired at the time and location listed in the Notice Inviting
Bids. A tabulation of all Bids received will be available for public inspection at the
Office of the City Clerk, 4305 Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, CA 90058 during regular
business hours for a period of not less than thirty (30) calendar days following the
Bid Deadline. The City reserves the right to accept or reject any or all Bids and be
the sole judge regarding the suitability of the products, services or supplies offered;
and/or to waive any irregularities or informalities in any Bids or in the bidding
process. The City further reserves the right to purchase all or fewer than all items
or quantities of each item listed in the Bidding Documents. The award of the
Contract, if made by the City, shall be to the lowest responsive and responsible
Bidder. If Bid Alternate Items are called for, the lowest Bid shall be determined
according to Paragraph 20 below.
B. Evaluation of Bids.
1. Mandatory Qualifications. A Bid shall be rejected as non-responsive if the
Bidder fails to document in the Bid that Bidder meets the essential
requirements for qualification described in the Notice Inviting Bids. As part
of the Bidder’s Statement of Qualifications each Bidder must establish that
it, as the current entity: (1) has successfully completed at least three (3)
similar projects involving similar work within the last three (3) years with
a cost equal to or in excess of the Bidder’s Bid; and (2) has successfully
completed at least three (3) public works projects. The City’s
disqualification of a Subcontractor listed for the concrete Work does not
disqualify a Bidder. However, prior to and as a condition to award of the
Contract, the successful Bidder shall substitute a properly licensed and
qualified Subcontractor — without an adjustment of the Bid Price.
2. Responsive Bid. A responsive Bid is a Bid which conforms, in all material

capacity and experience to satisfactorily perform fully the requirements of
the Contract Documents.
4. Competency of Bidders. In selecting the lowest responsible Bidder,
consideration will be given not only to the financial standing but also to the
general competency of the Bidder for the performance of the Work covered
by the Bid including, but not limited to, the experience of the Bidder in
construction of public works for public agencies. By submitting a Bid, each
Bidder agrees that the City, in determining the successful Bidder and its
eligibility for the award, may consider the Bidder’s experience with similar
types of construction projects and facilities, conduct and performance under
other contracts, financial condition, reputation in the industry, safety record
and protocols and other factors which could affect the Bidder’s performance
of the Work.
19. AWARD OF CONTRACT

technical defects, as the interest of the City may require. Award of Contract or rejection

disclosed by the City before the first bid is opened

22. PUBLIC RECORDS
City seeks to conduct its business openly. Except as set forth in paragraph 8.A., upon
opening, all Bids shall become a matter of public record and shall be regarded as public,
with the exception of those elements of each Bid that are identified by the Bidder and
plainly marked as “trade secret,” “confidential,” or “proprietary,” including any Statement
of Qualifications and financial statements to be submitted by Bidders. Each element of a
Bid which a Bidder desires not to be considered a public record must be clearly marked as
set forth above, and any blanket statement (i.e. regarding entire pages, documents, or other,
non-specific designations) shall not be sufficient and shall not bind the City in any way
whatsoever. If City receives a request from a third party to make a Bid available for
inspection and copying, the City will notify the Bidder of the request. If a Bidder instructs
the City that the information is not to be released, City will withhold the information,
provided, the Bidder expeditiously seeks a protective order from a court of competent
jurisdiction to prevent such release. If disclosure is required under the California Public
Records Act or otherwise by law (despite the Bidder’s request for confidentiality), the City
shall not in any way be liable or responsible for the disclosure of any such records or part
thereof.
Bidder shall indemnify, defend (including Bidder’s providing and paying for legal counsel
for City), and hold harmless City, its officers, agents, employees, and representatives from
and against all liability, claims, suits, demands, damages, fines, penalties, costs, or expenses
arising out of or alleging City’s refusal to publicly disclose one or more records that Bidder
identifies as protectable, or asserts is protectable.
23. PREVAILING WAGE RATES AND EMPLOYMENT OF APPRENTICES
A. Prevailing Wage Rates. The Bidder and all Subcontractors shall utilize the relevant
prevailing wage rate determinations in effect on the first advertisement date of the
Notice Calling for Bids in preparing the Bid Proposal and all component price
quotations, provided, however, that when Davis Bacon wage rates apply, such rates
are subject to increase by written notice, issued by Addendum not less than 10
calendar days before the Bid Deadline. Pursuant to California Labor Code Section
1770 et seq., the Director of the Department of Industrial Relations of the State of
California and the United States Secretary of Labor have determined the general
prevailing wage rates in the locality in which the Work is to be performed. Said
rate schedules are available on the Internet at www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD/. The
wage rate for any classification not listed, but which may be required to execute the
Work, shall be commensurate and in accord with specified rates for similar or
comparable classifications for those performing similar or comparable duties. To
comply with California Labor Code Section 1773.2, Contractor shall post, at
appropriate and conspicuous locations on the job site, a schedule showing all
applicable prevailing wage rates and shall also comply with the requirements of
California Labor Code Sections 1773 et seq.

the Contract or subcontract, as applicable, but in any event prior to the first day in
which Contractor or Subcontractor has workers employed on the Project, submit

signing the Contract or subcontract, as applicable, the Statement of Employer
Payments (DLSE Form PW 26) shall be completed for each Contractor and
Subcontractor of any tier who pays benefits to a third party trust, plan or fund for
health and welfare benefits, vacation funds or makes pension contributions. The
form must contain, for each worker classification, the fund, plan or trust name,
address, administrator, the amount per hour contributed and the frequency of
contributions. Training fund contributions shall also be reported in this form. City
reserves the right to require Contractors and Subcontractors to submit a copy of
said forms to the City.
D. Notice to Subcontractors. Bidders shall notify all potential Subcontractors
submitting price quotations for portions of the Work of the requirements concerning
payment of prevailing wage rates, payroll records, hours of Work, and employment
of apprentices.
24. REGISTRATION WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-414-2019
Submitted by: Felix Velasco
Submitting Department: Public Works
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
Acceptance of work of Covello’s Pacific AirCare, Inc. regarding Contract No. CS-1072 – City Hall Duct Cleaning
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed action is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") review,
as it is a governmental administrative activity that will not directly result in physical changes to the environment and is
therefore not a "project" as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and
B. Accept the work of Covello’s Pacific Aircare, Inc. as related to City Contract No. CS-1072 – City Hall Duct
Cleaning, and authorize staff to submit the Notice of Completion for the project to the County of Los Angeles
Recorder’s Office.
Background:
On April 19, 2019, The City Administrator awarded the City Contract No. CS-1072 - City Hall Duct Cleaning to
Covello’s Pacific AirCare, Inc. for the amount of $67,000.
The project consisted of cleaning all of City Hall’s heating, air-conditioning and ventilation systems from the points
where the air enters the system to the points where the air is discharged from the system. During the cleaning operations,
the contractor found that there was mold build-up in the square supply air duct. Subsequently, the Public Works
Department directed the contractor to replace the damaged unit. This resulted in Change Order No. 1 in the amount of
$9,975, which was approved by the City Administrator on July 1, 2019.
The project was completed on June 24, 2019. The project was completed in accordance with the project specifications
and City staff expectations.
The Notice of Completion was approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office on July 30, 2019.
Fiscal Impact:
An amount of $125,000 was budgeted in Fiscal Year 2018-2019 for the City Hall Duct Cleaning. The low bid amount
of $67,000, plus the cost of Change Order No. 1 of $9,975 is within the budgeted amount. Therefore, sufficient funds
were available to cover the cost of this project.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-409-2019
Submitted by: Lilia Hernandez
Submitting Department: City Administration
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
Letter of Opposition to SB 266 (Leyva) Requiring Cities to Pay for Overcalculation of PERS Benefits
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the letter in opposition to Senate Bill 266 (Leyva) is exempt from California Environmental
Quality Act (“CEQA”) review, because it is an administrative action that will not result in direct or indirect physical
changes in the environment and, therefore, does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines section
15378; and
B. Approve the letter in opposition to Senate Bill 266 (Leyva) and authorize the Mayor to execute the letter on behalf of
the City.
Background:
The League of California Cities has issued an Action Alert urging its membership to oppose Senate Bill 266 regarding
California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) benefit adjustments for disallowed compensation and notify
their California legislative representatives of such opposition. Staff has reviewed the proposed legislation and concurs
with the League’s recommendation to oppose the bill. The attached letter, if approved, will be distributed as indicated
in the letter. The bill has been moving rapidly through the Legislature with little resistance from legislators.
The City of Vernon is a member of the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). CalPERS is a
defined benefit pension system. During the course of an individual’s employment, contributions are made to the system
based on a percentage of an individual’s compensation that is allowed by statute to be considered as compensation for
the purpose of calculating the basis for pension benefits. At a minimum, pension benefits are calculated based on base
salary. However, additional forms of pay such as uniform allowance, education incentives, and longevity pay may also
be considered when calculating pension benefits. These are commonly referred to as “PERSable” compensation. What
may or may not be considered PERSable compensation is defined by statute in the California Government Code.
During employment, the contributions to CalPERS to fund the pension benefit are based on the best interpretation of
PERSable compensation at that time.
SB 266 (Leyva) was introduced to the California State Legislature on February 12, 2019 by Senator Connie Leyva of
Senate District 20, and is sponsored by the California Professional Firefighters. As proposed, SB 266 will require
public agencies to directly pay retirees and/or their beneficiaries disallowed retirement benefits. Disallowed retirement
benefits are pension overpayments made by CalPERS that occur when CalPERS determines after a retiree has been
awarded a pension that a mistake was made in interpreting what is or is not PERSable compensation.
Under current law, once a benefit is determined to be a disallowed benefit, both the employer and the employee cease
making future payments on that benefit, past contributions from the employee are returned to the employee, while past
contributions from the employer are applied towards future payment. In the case of a retiree that received the
disallowed benefit, the pension system must recoup the overpaid benefit from the retiree. The pension system must
recoup that overpayment from the retiree because it is unlawful to pay out a benefit that is not legally allowable or
earned.
If passed, SB 266 would require public agencies to directly pay retirees and/or their beneficiaries, disallowed benefits
using general fund dollars. SB 266 places 100 percent of the total liability for such overpayments on public agencies.
SB 266 is a de facto and retroactive benefit enhancement measure that will further strain local agency budgets at a time
where retirement obligations already present significant financial challenges for cities such as Vernon. Under SB 266,
cities would be required to track and pay individual retirees and their beneficiaries for decades out of their general funds
to cover any amounts of a retiree’s PERS-determined benefit that PERS later determines is “disallowed compensation.”
Recent amendments to the measure remove all responsibility by CalPERS to ensure benefits are reviewed, calculated
and administered correctly. Instead, SB 266 places sole responsibility on the public employer—even if the employer
exercises their right to have CalPERS review their compensation proposal. SB 266 creates the potential for significant
unfunded pension liabilities should CalPERS simply change its mind regarding the applied definition of PERSable
compensation.
Staff recommends opposition to SB 266 based on policy, operational cost, and legal concerns that will inevitably face
virtually every state and local government agency should this measure be signed into law.
Fiscal Impact:
Expressing opposition to SB 266 supports protecting the City’s revenues and fund balance position against unnecessary
pension obligations.

RE: SB 266 (Leyva) Public Employees’ Retirement System: Disallowed Compensation: Benefit
Adjustments. [As Amended August 14, 2019]
Notice of Opposition
Dear Assembly Member Gonzalez,
The City of Vernon must respectfully oppose SB 266, which would require public agencies to directly
pay retirees and/or their beneficiaries, disallowed retirement benefits using general fund dollars. Our
objections to this measure are rooted in policy, operational cost, and legal concerns that will inevitably
face virtually every local government agency should this measure be signed into law.
Double Payment:
Under current law, once a benefit is determined to be disallowed, both the employer and the employee
cease making future payments on that benefit, past contributions from the employee are returned to the
employee, while past contributions from the employer are applied towards future payment. We the
employer have already made our contributions, we should not be double paying for the benefit.
As Amended CalPERS has no Incentive to Properly Calculate Benefit Payments:
Recent amendments to the measure remove all responsibility by CalPERS to ensure benefits are
reviewed, calculated and administered correctly. Instead, SB 266 places sole responsibility on the
employer—even if the employer exercises their right to have CalPERS review their compensation
proposal. While we understand that CalPERS has asserted that they face IRS plan qualification concerns
for paying out an unlawful benefit, the fact that there is zero accountability or assurances afforded to the
state or local agency when CalPERS reviews a compensation agreement is irrational.
Requirements under SB 266 will Create Compliance and Implementation Issues:
Under SB 266, we would be issuing direct General Fund payments to retirees, which would trigger GASB
68 reporting requirements. Given the unique circumstances surrounding these overpayments, we would
have to track and report these liabilities. Such additional responsibilities will require us to hire costly
outside actuarial and legal experts to ensure that they follow federal reporting laws. SB 266 is a de facto
and retroactive benefit enhancement bill that would further strain our budget at a time where retirement
obligations are making it financially difficult to provide critical services for the public. This measure
also fails to consider the common practice of employees moving from jurisdiction to jurisdiction
throughout their careers. Under normal circumstances, CalPERS pays out the benefit if an employee
Page 2
City of Vernon, 4305 Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, California 90058 – Telephone (323) 583-8811
works for multiple agencies who enjoy reciprocity. However, under SB 266 it is unclear. Such confusion
will lead to compliance, legal and implementation challenges.
As with many governmental agencies, the City of Vernon is being forced to examine the impacts of
soaring pension and benefit costs. Trust was placed in CalPERS which has not met its investment
targets and continues to forecast lower investment income rates. Cost containment strategies are being
examined and discussed in partnership with employee labor groups, and the City of Vernon has been
proactive in negotiating increases to employee-paid pension contributions. The Vernon City Council
also just made the difficult decision to outsource provision of fire and paramedic services to Los
Angeles County, a reflection of unsustainable pension and other benefit costs.
In recent years, the City of Vernon also waged a lengthy, and ultimately successful, legal battle against
former City Administrator Bruce Malkenhorst related to his efforts to hold the City responsible for
paying the annual pension funds he lost when CalPERS recalculated and reduced his benefit. SB 266
essentially makes the same argument that Malkenhorst propounded, and which the California Court of
Appeal rejected – that the City should bear the financial and administrative burden when CalPERS
makes a mistake and overpays an employee benefit. If SB 266 had been applied in the Malkenhorst
case, a corrupt former public official who raided public funds would be financially rewarded, to the
City’s detriment and with no accountability on the part of CalPERS.
Gift of Public Funds is a Violation of the California Constitution:
Under SB 266, the City of Vernon would be issuing unlawful payments to former employees and/or their
beneficiaries. Continued payment of a disallowed benefit to a retiree would constitute a gift of public
funds, in violation of Section 6, Article 16 of the California Constitution. Such violation would leave a
public agency left to defend itself from costly litigation lawsuits filed by members of the public.
For these reasons, the City of Vernon opposes SB 266 (Leyva).
Sincerely,
Melissa Ybarra
Mayor

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-393-2019
Submitted by: Adriana Ramos
Submitting Department: Fire Department
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
Approval of Dispatch Services Agreement with Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County
Recommendation:
A. Find that the approval proposed action is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) review,
because it is an administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and
therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and
B. Approve a Services Agreement with Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (hereinafter
referred to as the “Fire District”), in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, to provide dispatch services at a
rate of $40.13 per incident in addition to start-up costs (annual dispatch service cost estimated to be $73,438 and
start-up transition costs estimated to be $333,856); and
C. Authorize the Mayor to execute a Services Agreement with the Fire District, to provide dispatch services to the City
of Vernon with a tentative effective date of October 21, 2019; and
D. Authorize for the termination of the current dispatch services agreement with the City of Burbank, the City of
Glendale and the City of Pasadena (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Verdugo Cities”) effective the day after
the dispatch service agreement with Fire District takes effect.
Background:
On February 2, 2016 the City of Vernon City Council authorized the execution of a Fire Communications Dispatch
Service agreement with Verdugo Cities through Resolution No. 2016-05. On August 6, 2019, the City of Vernon City
Council approved Resolution No. 2019-29 authorizing the execution of an agreement between the City of Vernon and
the Consolidated Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (“LA County Fire” or ”Fire District”) for the provision
of fire protection, paramedic and incidental services in the City of Vernon.
With the approval of fire services with LA County Fire, staff is recommending a transition of the City’s fire dispatch
services with the Fire District as soon as possible by way of the proposed intermediate agreement that will
accommodate Vernon through July 1, 2020. Verdugo Cities recently upgraded their Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD)
system and is tentatively scheduled to go live the October 24th. As a result of the upgrade, all agencies that utilize
Verdugo’s dispatch services were responsible for upgrading their Mobile Data Computers (MDC) and Broadband
system in order to remain on Verdugo’s system. The projected cost for that upgrade to the City of Vernon was
$165,000. The Vernon Fire Department did not move forward with the requested upgrades to the department’s
MDC’s and Broadband system due to cost and impending status of the department’s future as a result of the LA
County Feasibility Study that was being conducted at the time. With Verdugo Cities’ scheduled upgrade approaching, it
is imperative that the City of Vernon acquire dispatch services from the Fire District before October 24, 2019 to ensure
there is no disruption in dispatch services.
In March of 2019, staff provided written notification to Verdugo Cities of the City’s desire to end dispatch
communication services from Verdugo dispatch should the City of Vernon contract with LA County Fire. Verdugo
Cities has acknowledged the current situation and will allow the City of Vernon to opt-out of its agreement. In addition,
Verdugo Cities will work with the City to refund any money not spent for dispatch services.
The start-up cost to transition to Fire District dispatch services is estimated to be $333,856, with an initial partial
payment of $112,000 (approximately 1/3 cost of the start-up cost) due at system activation. In addition, the City will
pay to the Fire District $40.13 per incident, for each incident dispatched by Fire District. The City will pre-pay for Fire
District dispatch services using an estimated number of 1,830 annual dispatch incidents. The monetary value for incident
cost will be approximately $73,438. On July 1, 2020, the Fire District will calculate the total number of dispatched
incidents in the previous fiscal year to determine cost for the billable amount due for the next fiscal year. Depending on
the total number of dispatched incidents, if the incident count is fewer than the estimated incident count, the Fire District
will credit the City the difference. The equipment upgrades and associated costs for the early transition to Fire District
will offset the costs of the full transition at a later date. The remaining transition costs in excess of the initial $112,000
will be included with the City’s conversion costs obligation, pursuant to the fire services annexation agreement between
the City of Vernon and LA County Fire.
In transitioning dispatch services to Fire District, the City will be paying less in incident calls. The Fire District cost per
incident is $40.13 as compared to Verdugo Cities incident cost of $69.92 per incident, which is a $29.79 savings per
call. Should the City ever opt to discontinue its agreement with the Fire District for the provision of fire protection,
paramedic and incidental services in Vernon and return to a “City-run” model, the City could continue utilizing the Fire
District’s dispatch services without issue (if so desired).
The proposed Dispatch Service agreement has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney’s Department.
Pursuant to the Vernon Municipal Code, Section 2.17.12(A)(5), the agreement requested herein is exempt from
competitive bidding requirements because it is a contract with other governmental entities.
Fiscal Impact:
The start-up cost to transition to Fire District dispatch services is estimated to be $333,856, with an initial partial
payment of $112,000 (approximately 1/3 cost of the start-up cost) due at system activation. In addition, the City will
pay to the Fire District $40.13 per incident, for each incident dispatched by Fire District. The monetary value for
incident cost will be approximately $73,438 for the first year based on an estimated number of 1,830 annual dispatch
incidents. Funds for this agreement have been proposed on the 2019/20 fiscal year budget and are also covered under
the transition cost with LA County Fire.

amount due by the CITY to the FIRE DISTRICT.
3. On July 1st, 2020, the FIRE DISTRICT will calculate the total number of
dispatched incidents in the previous fiscal year. The FIRE DISTRICT shall
subtract or add the appropriate number of dispatched incidents above or below
1,830 multiplied by the PER INCIDENT COST, for the fiscal year in which the
dispatch occurred, to/from the billable amount due for the next fiscal year.
4. Each July 1st thereafter, the PER INCIDENT COST shall be adjusted by the
FIRE DISTRICT to reflect the FIRE DISTRICT’s current costs for providing
services. See PER INCIDENT COST Calculation Formula as detailed on
Exhibit A attached hereto.
B. Start-up Costs.
CITY shall be responsible for all start-up costs as determined by the FIRE DISTRICT
at changeover of service. Start-up costs are estimated to be $333,856 as detailed
on Exhibit B attached hereto. An initial partial payment for the start-up costs of
$112,000 shall be due at system activation. The remaining balance will be added to
the City’s conversion costs obligation pursuant to the Agreement for Services. In the
event an Agreement for Services is not effectuated by July 1, 2020, the balance of
the start-up costs will be due July 31, 2020.
C. Billing. Pursuant to California Health & Safety Code Section 13878, the FIRE
DISTRICT will bill the first year in advance, wherein the FIRE DISTRICT will bill year
one based on the estimated 1,830 average calls per year. Each year thereafter, the
FIRE DISTRICT will bill based on the previous fiscal year’s call total. If the actual
incident count is fewer than the estimated incident count, the FIRE DISTRICT shall
credit the CITY for the difference, which amount shall be deducted from the
subsequent fiscal year’s annual invoice. If the actual incident count is greater than
the estimated incident count, the additional amount due to the DISTRICT will be
added to the CITY’s subsequent fiscal year’s annual invoice. The CITY shall be
billed by written invoice for the PER INCIDENT COST. All invoices shall be payable

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-399-2019
Submitted by: Michael Earl
Submitting Department: Human Resources
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Vernon Approving the Memorandum of Understanding by and between
the City of Vernon and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 47 (IBEW)
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the attached resolution in this staff report is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) review, because it is an administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the
environment and therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378; and
B. Adopt the attached resolution approving the 2019-2022 Memorandum of Understanding by and between the City of
Vernon and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 47 (IBEW).
Background:
The existing memoranda of understanding (MOU's) between the City of Vernon and the City's six bargaining groups
expired June 30, 2019. Pursuant to City Council direction and authority, negotiations with all six bargaining groups
began in March 2019. Labor negotiations with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 47 (IBEW),
representing electric operators, dispatchers, engineers, and a variety of technical staff in the Public Utilities Department,
have been ongoing since February 2019 for successor MOU's. On August 12, 2019, the parties reached a tentative
agreement on a successor MOU which was then ratified by the IBEW membership on August 20, 2019. Based on the
direction and authority provided by the City Council, it is recommended that City Council approve a successor
Memorandum of Understanding for the period of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022 that reflects the following key
provisions:
* The term of the agreement is for three (3) years from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022;
* Revisions to the Organizational Security language to reflect court rulings that have changed membership, dues, and fee
requirements for employees represented by labor organizations;
* A three percent (3%) Cost of Living Adjustment to salaries (COLA) effective August 20, 2019 and subsequently in
July of each year during the term of the agreement;
* Employees who are considered to be "Classic" employees as defined by the California Public Employees Retirement
Systems (CalPERS) will increase the amount paid towards the cost of their retirement benefit by an additional one
percent (1%) per year for a total contribution of eleven percent (11%) by the third year of the agreement;
* Revision to the sick leave cash out provision mirroring that of other bargaining groups;
* Revisions to the discipline appeal language implementing advisory arbitration for appeals of terminations during the
term of the agreement;
* Various minor language changes to update and or eliminate outdated or obsolete language that is either no longer in
effect or required update to reflect current practices.
The changes from the previous MOU are highlighted in the attached proposed draft 2019 - 2022 MOU.
Fiscal Impact:
The fiscal impact of these proposed changes is approximately $111,038 for fiscal year 2019/2020. Funds have been
included in the proposed FY 2019/2020 budget.

certified majority representative of the employees, comprised of Addendum A, as the exclusive
representative of the employees for purposes of collective bargaining for all terms and conditions
within this Memorandum of Understanding.
Section 2: No Discrimination
The provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding shall be applied equally to all employees
covered hereby. Neither the City nor the Union shall discriminate against any individual, or
employee with respect to his/her compensation, terms, condition, or privileges of employment or

pregnancy, sexual orientation, political or religious opinions or affiliations, or membership or non-
membership in the Union.

request of other labor organizations to engage in any or all of the preceding activities.
During the term of this agreement, the City agrees it will not lockout employees represented by the
Union.
Section 4: City/Union Meetings
Representatives from the Union and the City shall meet as needed to discuss issues of mutual
concern.
Section 5: Union Business
A. Access to Facilities
Except as specifically identified in Section C below, all Union business will be conducted by
employees and Union representatives outside of established work hours.
8
Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent a Union representative or an employee from
contacting the Human Resources Director or other management representatives regarding
personnel related matters during work hours. The authorized Union Business Agent shall be given
access to work locations during working hours provided that prior to visiting any work location
the Union representative shall:
Obtain authorization for the visit from the Human Resources Director or designee. In the event
the requested time and/or location of such visit by the Union Business Agent is denied because it
would interfere with the operations of the department, the Human Resources Director or designee
shall consult with the Union Business Agent regarding availability and set an alternative time
and/or location for such visit within seventy-two (72) hours of the request.
The Union may schedule meetings in the City facilities at such times these facilities are not in use
by submitting a written request to the Human Resources Director or designee, which shall include
the date, time, and number of people expected. Approval will be granted in the same manner as it

and/or employees’ regular work duties. If a Steward must leave his/her work location to conduct
Union related business, he/she shall first obtain authorization from his/her supervisor to do so.
Authorization to leave will be granted unless such absence would be unreasonable. If such
authorization cannot be granted promptly, the Steward will be informed when time can be made
available. To the extent reasonable and compatible with City operational needs, such time will
not be more than forty-eight 48 hours, excluding scheduled days off and/or legal holidays, after
the time of the Steward’s request unless otherwise mutually agreed upon. For purposes of this

written notice of the request to release the selected employees for the seminar. Such request shall
include the date and start/end time of the seminar. City vehicles may be made available upon
request subject to availability and the City’s vehicle use policy.

ARTICLE THREE
ORGANIZATIONAL SECURITY
Section 1: Organizational Security
Upon receipt of written certification from the Union of an employee’s voluntary authorization for
the deduction, the City shall deduct and remit to the Union the Union’s initiation fee and periodic
dues for members of the Union. Should there be a dispute regarding the existence or terms of the
authorization for deduction of dues and/or fees, the Union shall provide the City with a copy of
the authorization(s) signed by the employee.
Dues and/or fees withheld by the City shall be transmitted to the Union Officer designated in writing
by the Union as a person authorized to receive such funds, at the address specified. Dues and/or
fees shall be deducted from the first and second paycheck of each month and remitted to the Union
by the last business day of the month.
The City shall not deduct money specifically earmarked for a PAC or other political activities unless
such deduction is affirmatively, separately and specifically authorized in writing by the unit
member.
The Union shall keep an adequate itemized record of its financial transactions and shall make
available annually to the City and, upon request, to the employees who are members of the unit,
within sixty (60) days after the end of its fiscal year, a detailed written financial report in the form
of a balance sheet and an operating statement, certified as to accuracy by its president and treasurer
or principal officer, or by a certified public accountant. A copy of financial reports required under
the Labor-Management Disclosure Act of 1959, or Government Code section 3546.5, shall satisfy
this requirement.
The Union shall provide protection to the City by indemnifying, defending and holding the City
harmless from and against all claims and liabilities as a result of any loss, claim, liability or cause
of action arising out of the operation of this article.
Upon the voluntary written authorization of bargaining unit employees, the City shall deduct and
remit to the Union the Union's initiation fee and periodic dues for members of the Union.
Any unit member who is not a member of the Union, or who does not make application for
membership within thirty (30) days following the effective date of this paragraph, or, for those hired
after the effective date of this paragraph, within thirty (30) days from the commencement of duties,
shall become a member of the Union or pay to the union a fee in an amount equal to the Union's
periodic dues: provided, however, that the unit member may authorize payroll deductions for such
fee in the same manner as provided in the paragraph above.
Dues withheld by the City shall be transmitted to the Union Officer designated in writing by the
Union as a person authorized to receive such funds, at the address specified.
The parties agree that the obligations herein are a condition of continued employment for unit
members. The parties further agree that the failure of any unit member to remain a member in good
standing of the Union or to pay the equivalent of Union dues during the term of this agreement shall
14
constitute, generally, just and reasonable cause for termination. The City shall not be obligated to put into effect any new, changed or discontinued deduction until a pay period commences fifteen (15) working days or more after such submission.
No unit member shall be required to join the Union or to make an agency fee payment if the unit member is an actual verified member of a bona fide religion, body, or sect which has historically
held conscientious objections to joining or financially supporting employee organizations; this
exemption shall not be granted unless and until such unit member has verified the specific
circumstances. Such employee must, instead, arrange with the Union to satisfy his/her obligation
by donating the equivalent amount to a non-labor, non-religion charitable fund, tax exempt under
section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, chosen by the employee.
Whenever a unit member becomes delinquent in the payment of dues or fees, the Union shall give
the unit member written notice thereof and fifteen (15) days to cure the delinquency; a copy of said
notice shall be forwarded to the Human Resources Department. In the event the unit member fails
to cure said delinquency, the Union shall request, in writing, that the City initiate termination
proceedings. The termination proceedings shall be governed by applicable state laws and are
specifically excluded from the Grievance/Appeal/Arbitration procedures.
The City shall not deduct money specifically earmarked for a PAC or other political activities unless
such deduction is affirmatively, separately and specifically authorized in writing by the unit
member.
The Union shall keep an adequate itemized record of its financial transactions and shall make
available annually to the City and, upon request, to the employees who are members of the unit,
within sixty (60) days after the end of its fiscal year, a detailed written financial report in the form
of a balance sheet and an operating statement, certified as to accuracy by its president and treasurer
or principal officer, or by a certified public accountant. A copy of financial reports required under
the Labor-Management Disclosure Act of 1959, or Government Code section 3546.5, shall satisfy
this requirement.
The Union will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City of Vernon from any loss, claim,
liability or cause of action arising out of the operation of this article. Upon commencement of any
such legal action, the Union shall have the right to decide and determine litigation, settlement,
and/or appeal strategy. Any such decision on the part of the Union shall not compromise or
diminish the Union’s indemnification obligations under this agreement. The City, immediately upon receipt of notice of such legal action shall inform the Union of such actions, provide the Union with all information, documents, and assistance necessary for the Union's defense or settlement of such action and fully cooperate with the Union in providing all necessary
witnesses, experts and assistance necessary for such defense.
The Union, upon compromise or settlement of such action, shall immediately pay the parties to such
action all sums due under such settlement of compromise. The Union, upon final order and
judgment of a court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction awarding damages to any
prevailing party, shall pay to such party all sums owing under such order and judgment.

The City and the Union share a common interest in maintaining the stability and the security of the City’s workforce. As such, the City agrees to notify the Union prior to any decision to contract with an outside party if such contracting out will have a significant, long-term impact on work
performed by employees in classifications represented by the Union.
Such notification will be given before a decision to contract out is made, and the Union will have
an opportunity to comment prior to a determination by the City to enter into contracting
arrangements.
If such contracting out will result in potential layoff of any unit member(s), the City shall meet and
confer over the impact and effect such contracting out will have on the membership.
This provision shall not apply to contracts already established at the time this MOU is adopted.

7 coverage. The DuPont 5 schedule consists of a 10-week cycle during which each team works as
follows:
4 consecutive night shifts, followed by 3 consecutive days off duty;
3 consecutive day shifts, followed by 1 day off duty;
3 consecutive night shifts, followed by 3 consecutive days off duty;

Section 4: Standby Policy
Stand-by time is that period of time other than the employee's regularly scheduled working hours
when an employee, at the direction of his/her Department Head, is on standby duty.
The Department Head shall post a list of employees who are determined to be qualified to perform
stand-by-duty. The list shall contain the title of each classification in which the employee is
deemed eligible to perform stand-by duty. The stand-by duty and period shall be defined by the
Department Head. The stand-by list will be made available 72 hours, or as soon as practical,
prior to the start of stand-by.
4/10 Schedule
The stand-by rotation list for employees working the 4/10 work schedule will first be filled through
volunteers from the respective classification, and then from volunteers from other classifications
who are deemed eligible for stand-by in that classification. If there are no volunteers available,
employees shall be involuntarily placed on stand-by status pursuant to a rotational plan within the
respective classification from the list of employees qualified to perform stand-by duties.
DuPont Schedule
39
The stand-by rotation list for employees working under the DuPont 4 or DuPont 5 Schedule will
be filled through a mandatory rotation list during the employees’ day off-cycle. Unless it is
determined an emergency or voluntary basis, it is not the City’s intent to place employees on stand-
by during their scheduled 6 or 7-day off cycle under the DuPont 4 or DuPont Schedule.
Stand-by duty employees are free to engage in personal business and activities. However, in
order to be eligible for stand-by duty and pay, employees must:
A. Be ready to respond immediately.
B. Be reachable by City-issued cell phone.
C. Be able to report to work within one (1) hour of notification.
D. Refrain from activities that might impair their ability to perform assigned
duties. This includes, but is not limited to, abstaining from the consumption
of any alcoholic beverage and the use of any illegal drug or incapacitating
medication.
E. Respond to any call back during the assigned standby duty.
Employees on stand-by shall receive two (2) hours of regular straight time compensation for
each day that the employee is assigned stand-by.
On City recognized Holidays, employees on stand-by will be compensated four (4) hours of
straight time compensation.
An employee assigned to stand-by who is not available to report may be subject to appropriate
disciplinary action, unless he/she provides sufficient notice to his/her immediate supervisor of
incapacity to respond prior to the call back so that appropriate arrangements can be made so
that the stand-by duty is covered.
Section 5: Performance Evaluations
It is agreed that an employee is not required to sign his/her Performance Evaluation when first
presented with it. The employee’s signature is an acknowledgment that the performance appraisal
was discussed. The signature does not necessarily mean that the employee agrees with evaluation
content. If there is a refusal to sign a performance evaluation, the supervisor shall note on the
performance evaluation the refusal of the employee to sign. The employee may enter remarks in the
space provided or attach a separate written response specific to the evaluation within ten calendar
days of the employee’s receipt of the Performance Evaluation. An employee shall receive a copy
of the performance evaluation and the department may place a copy in an internal file. Please refer
to Personnel Policy IV-1, Performance Evaluations for detailed procedures and policy.

ARTICLE FOURTEEN
GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE
Definition
A grievance shall be defined as an allegation by an employee or the Union of misinterpretation,
misapplication or violation of a particular provision of this MOU, City policy, rule or past
practice.
Days
Days shall be defined for the purposes of this Article as any day in which the City Hall is open to
the public for the general conduct of business.
Step One - Immediate Supervisor
Employees shall have the right to present their own grievance or do so through their Union
representative.
Grievances shall be processed on standard forms provided by the Department of Human Resources
and shall contain information which (a) identifies the aggrieved, (b) contains the specific nature of
the grievance, (c) indicates the time or place of its occurrence, if known, (d) states the article(s) of
the MOU, City policy, rule or past practice which have been violated, misinterpreted or misapplied,
(e) indicates the persons contacted at the informal stage, if applicable, and (f) states the corrective
action desired. Grievances may be submitted via email, so long as the employee attaches the
grievance form to the email by the required time line. If an employee includes attachments to the
grievance form and those attachments are not included in the email or in-person submission, the
City shall notify the employee that all attachments were not included and that the deadline for the
City to respond to the grievance will not begin to run until all the attachments are received.
Failure by management to reply to the employee’s grievance within the time limits specified
automatically grants the employee the right to process the grievance to the next level. If an
employee fails to appeal from one level to the next within the time limits established in this
grievance procedure, the grievance shall be considered settled on the basis of the last decision and
the grievance shall not be subject to further appeal or reconsideration.
All the time periods specified in this procedure may be extended by mutual written (including email)
consent of the aggrieved employee(s), Union representative and the designated management
representative.
Informal Procedure
Within eight (8) days of the date the employee(s) knew or reasonably should have known of the
incident giving rise to the grievance, the employee may discuss the complaint with his/her
immediate supervisor. Employees are encouraged to discuss complaints with their immediate
supervisor in an attempt to resolve the grievance at the lowest possible step.
An employee, at his or her sole discretion, may opt to skip the Informal Procedure resolution process
41
and instead go directly to Step One. If an employee chooses to proceed with the Informal Procedure,
he/she or their union representative shall inform the Human Resources Director, within one day of
initiating the Informal Procedure, that he/she has initiated the Informal Procedure and the date the
informal grievance was first discussed with his/her supervisor.
Within eight (8) days of the discussion with the employee, the supervisor shall verbally respond to
the employee’s complaint. If the employee is dissatisfied or if the supervisor fails to respond, the
employee shall have access to the formal process described below.
Formal Procedure
Step One - Immediate Supervisor
Within the time period referenced above or, if the employee chooses to skip the Informal Procedure,
within eight (8) days of the date the employee(s) knew or reasonably should have known of the
incident giving rise to the grievance, the employee(s) or the Union shall initiate the grievance
procedure by explaining the situation in writing as prescribed above to the immediate supervisor of
the affected employee(s). The Union and/or employee(s) waives the right to proceed with the
grievance if the grievant does not initiate the procedure by this deadline. After the presentation of
the grievance to the supervisor, the supervisor shall make a decision and present his/her decision,
in writing, to the Union and employee(s) within eight (8) days.
Step Two - Department Director
If the Union or employee(s) is not satisfied with the decision of the immediate supervisor, the
grievant shall present the grievance, in writing, to the Department Director within eight (8) days of
the decision of the immediate supervisor. The Union and/or employee(s) waives the right to
proceed with the grievance if the grievant(s) does not act by this deadline. Within eight (8) days,
the Department Director, or the designee of the Department Director, shall meet with the Union or
employee(s) to hear the grievance. Within eight (8) days of hearing the grievance, the Department
Director or designee shall present his/her decision, in writing, to the Union and employee(s) with
copies to the Human Resource Director and the City Administrator.
Step Three – City Administrator/Advisory Arbitration
If the Union or employee(s) is not satisfied with the result of the meeting with the Department
Director, the grievant may submit a written request, within eight (8) days of the written decision of
the Department Director, that the matter be heard by the City Administrator or designee, or the
Union may choose to have the matter heard by an impartial hearing officer (arbitrator).
Should the matter be submitted directly to the City Administrator or designee, he/she shall meet
with the Union and/or employee(s) within eight (8) days of receipt of the grievant’s written notice.
If the Union and/or employee(s) elects to have the matter heard by the City Administrator or
designee, the Union and/or employee(s) waives the right to have the matter heard by an arbitrator.
Within eight (8) days of hearing the grievance, the City Administrator shall provide his/her decision,
in writing, to the Union and employee(s). The decision of the City Administrator shall be final and
binding.
42
If the Union elects arbitration, costs of the arbitration shall be shared equally between the Union
and the City. A court reporter shall be retained only by mutual consent of the parties. The costs
of the arbitration, including the court reporter, shall be divided in half (i.e. 50/50) by the parties.
Attorney fees, staff time and witness fees shall not be shared between the parties and shall be paid
by the party that incurred the cost.
If the Union elects arbitration, the City shall request a list of seven (7) arbitrators registered with
the American Arbitration Association, California State Conciliation Service or some other
mutually agreed upon source within ten (10) days of the Union’s request. Upon receipt of the list,
the parties shall alternately strike names from the list until a final name is selected as the hearing
officer, with the Union striking first. The selected arbitrator shall serve as the hearing officer. All
arbitration proceedings arising under the Grievance procedure shall be governed by the provisions
of Title 9, Part 3, of the Code of Civil Procedure of the State of California.
Within eight (8) days of receipt of the arbitrator’s recommendation, the City Administrator shall
provide his/her decision, in writing, to the Union and employee(s). The recommendation of an
arbitrator shall be advisory to the City Administrator or designee. The decision of the City
Administrator shall be final and binding.
In the event the City Administrator does not adopt the arbitrator’s recommendation, the City shall
bear the full cost of the arbitrator’s fee. Attorney fees, staff time and witness fees are excluded
and shall be paid by the party that incurred the cost.
All time limits specified in the procedure may be waived by mutual written agreement.
43
ARTICLE FIFTEEN
DISCIPLINE PROCEDURE
Definition
Types of discipline include the following: suspension, demotion, reduction in pay or dismissal.
For the purposes of this article, verbal counseling, written warning, written reprimand, voluntary
demotions, and performance evaluations are not classified as discipline.
The purpose of disciplinary actions are not intended to be punitive, but are defined as actions by
management directed to the modification or cessation of employee conduct which is contrary to
the best interests of the City and the public service.
DAYS
Days shall be defined for the purposes of this Article as any day in which the City Hall is open to
the public for the general conduct of business.
Disciplinary Actions
The tenure of every City employee shall be based on reasonable standards of personal conduct and
job performance. Failure to meet such standards shall be grounds for appropriate disciplinary
action, which shall be commensurate with the seriousness of the offense and with consideration of
the employee’s work history file. Progressive discipline will be used; however, this does not
preclude the City from taking disciplinary action, up to and including termination, for an incident
for which there is no prior documentation as long as the disciplinary action is warranted and is
based on just cause.
The following procedures shall be followed when, in the judgment of the Department Director, an
employee has committed an act or omission that justifies discipline. The Department Director or
his/her designee shall advise employees of contemplated disciplinary actions in writing and allow
the employee an opportunity to respond to such charges prior to taking final action.
Disciplinary actions should be documented in the employee's official personnel file.
Performance deficiencies documented in the employee’s performance evaluation as “does not meet
standards” may be the basis for disciplinary action if the employee fails to correct those performance
deficiencies within the time period designated by his/her supervisor. To the extent possible,
performance deficiencies or other causes for discipline will be documented in the employee’s
personnel file.
Upon the City receiving authorization from the employee, the City will provide the Union with all
written notices of discipline given to employees represented by Union. The written notice of
discipline will also inform the employee that he/she has the right to consult with the Union with
regard to the disciplinary action being taken.
44
Disciplinary Procedure
Prior to the suspension, demotion, reduction in pay or dismissal of any permanent employee for
disciplinary purposes, the following procedures shall be followed:
Written Notice of Proposed Action
Written notice of the proposed disciplinary action shall be given to the employee. Such notice
shall include the proposed effective date of the discipline, a statement of the reason(s) for the
proposed action, including the rule or standard of conduct allegedly violated, the proposed
discipline and the charge(s) being considered.
Employee Review
The employee shall be supplied with a copy of the documents or materials upon which the
proposed disciplinary action is based.
Employee Response/Pre-Disciplinary Conference
The notice of proposed action shall state the date by which the employee must exercise the right
to respond orally, in writing or both orally and in writing. The employee will be provided a
reasonable period of time to respond, which shall be no sooner than five (5) days after the notice
of proposed action is provided, or additional time as may be reasonable. This represents the pre-
disciplinary opportunity for the employee to state any reasons that he/she believes the proposed
action to be inappropriate. The date the employee is scheduled to respond may be adjusted by
mutual agreement. Failure to respond by the assigned date will constitute a waiver of the right to
respond. Any response will be fully considered before any final action is decided upon.
The Pre-Disciplinary Conference does not need to be an evidentiary hearing. An employee has the
right to have a representative of his or her own choosing at the conference. The City may conduct
further investigation if the employee’s version of the facts or new information raises doubts as to
the accuracy of the City’s information leading to the discipline proposal.
Written Notice of Final Action
After consideration of the employee’s response, or in the absence of a response, written notice of
the final disciplinary action shall be given to the employee. Such notice shall include essentially
the same information contained in the notice of proposed action, except that the employee’s
formal appeal rights shall be stated.
Emergencies
When, in the opinion of the City, immediate disciplinary action is required to protect the health,
safety or welfare of the public, other employees or the employee himself/herself, the employee
may be suspended without pay for up to three (3) days pending the processing of the written
notice of proposed action as required in this article or may be suspended with pay pending the
45
completion of such investigations or hearings as may be required to determine if disciplinary
action is to be taken. If the charges and/or allegations are not sustained, the employee suspended
without pay shall be entitled to reinstatement with full back pay and benefits. All back pay
awards related to suspension, demotions and discharges shall include interest as set by Civil Code
§§ 3287 et. seq..
Appeal Procedures
Major Discipline
Any permanent employee in the classified service shall have the right to appeal any termination,
suspension of thirty (30) hoursfive (5) working days or more, reduction in salary, or non-
probationary demotion. The appeal process shall not be applicable to newly hired probationary
employees. The appeal process shall not be applicable to performance evaluations, verbal and/or
written reprimands.
An employee desiring to appeal the discipline shall have ten (10) days after receipt of proposed
notice of discipline. The employee’s request for appeal must be addressed to the City
Administrator and received in the Human Resources Division. The Human Resources Division
shall date stamp the employee’s appeal to verify the timeliness of the appeal.
If, within the 10- day appeal period, the employee does not file the appeal, unless good cause for
the failure is shown, the discipline shall be considered conclusive and shall take effect as
prescribed. If the employee files a timely appeal, an arbitration appeal hearing shall be
established as follows:
1. The employee shall file a written request with the Human Resources Division for
arbitration to the City Administrator or designee. The City and Union will share equally
share (i.e. 50/50) the arbitration-related expenses, excluding attorney fees, expert witness
(es) and staff time.
2. The City shall request a list of seven (7) arbitrators registered with the American Arbitration
Association, California State Conciliation Service or some other agreed upon source within

selecting an arbitrator, the parties shall alternately strike one name from the list, with the
employee striking first, until one name remains as the arbitrator.
3. The selected arbitrator shall serve as the hearing officer.
4. All time limits specified in the procedure may be waived by mutual written agreement.
5. At the conclusion of the hearing, the arbitrator will submit his/her findings to the City and
the employee. The opinion shall set forth findings of fact and conclusions. Except as set
forth below, Tthe decision of the Arbitrator will become final unless the City or the
employee/union elects to pursue judicial review under CCP §1094.5.
46
5.6.For arbitration appeals of major discipline at the level of termination, the recommendation
of an arbitrator shall be advisory to the City Administrator or designee through the term
of this Memorandum of Understanding. The decision of the City Administrator shall be
final and binding. The decision of the City Administrator will become final unless the
City of the employee/union elects to pursue judicial review under CCP §1094.5.
Advisory arbitration for termination cases shall revert to binding arbitration after June 30,
2022, unless the parties mutually agree and negotiate otherwise.
Minor Discipline
Any permanent employee shall have the right to appeal any suspension below the threshold of
major discipline. The appeal process shall not apply to probationary employees.
An employee desiring to appeal disciplinary action defined as “Minor Discipline” shall have ten
(10) days after receipt of the final Notice of Determination to request an appeal to the City
Administrator or designee. The employee’s request for appeal must be addressed to the City
Administrator and received by the Human Resources Department.
If the problem cannot be resolved between the employee and the supervisor, the employee may,
within ten (10) days from receiving notice of the proposed discipline, request and be granted an
interview with the Department Director or his/her designee in order to discuss the appeal.
The Department Director or designee shall render his/her decision in writing within fifteen (15)
days of receiving the appeal. If the Department Director and employee are unable to arrive at a
satisfactory solution, the employee may, within fifteen (15) days from the date of the decision by
the Department Director, submit a written appeal to the City Administrator or designee. The City
Administrator or designee will respond or schedule a meeting within fifteen (15) days. The City
Administrator or designee shall render his/her judgment as soon after hearing the appeal the

of the City Administrator shall be final.

least two of which must be employees of the City. Additional department and employee
representatives may participate on the Committee to deal with departmental matters which

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-402-2019
Submitted by: Lisette Grizzelle
Submitting Department: Human Resources
Meeting Date: September 3, 2019
SUBJECT
A Resolution Adopting an Amended and Restated Citywide Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution in Accordance with
Government Code Section 20636(b)(1) and Repealing All Resolutions in Conflict Therewith
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the attached resolution in this staff report is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) review, because it is an administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the
environment and therefore does not constitute a “project” as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378; and
B. Adopt the attached resolution amending and restating the Citywide Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution to:
1) Amend Exhibit A - Classification and Compensation Plan
Background:
The existing memoranda of understanding (MOU's) between the City of Vernon and the City's six bargaining groups
expired June 30, 2019. Pursuant to City Council direction and authority, negotiations with all six bargaining groups
began in March 2019. Labor negotiations have been ongoing for successor MOU's and a tentative agreement was
reached with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 47 (IBEW) on August 12, 2019.
In order to implement the salary changes contained within the new MOU, City Council approval is needed to amend the
Classification and Compensation Plan, which is Exhibit A of the City’s Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution. A
separate City Council agenda item requests approval of the revised MOU.
It is recommended that City Council approve an amended and restated Fringe Benefits and Salary Resolution that
reflects the following:
Exhibit A: Classification and Compensation Plan is amended to reflect that effective August 20, 2019, July 5, 2020, and
July 4, 2021 the base salaries of classifications designated as International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW)
Local 47 shall be increased by 3%. The amendment to the Classification and Compensation Plan implements salary
changes resulting from the approval of the revised MOU between the City of Vernon and IBEW Local 47 Union.
Fiscal Impact:
The fiscal impact of these proposed changes is approximately $111,038 for fiscal year 2019/2020. Funds have been
included in the proposed FY 2019/2020 budget.

leave bank at the time of separation.

CCR 571(a) and as defined by GC 7522.04(f)
37
Section 22. STAND-BY POLICY
The purpose of the Stand-by Policy is to have employees on stand-by to respond to major
incidents and emergencies during non-working hours which require immediate attention
to availability of qualified individuals with expertise in operating, maintaining, restoring
and repairing the City’s technology systems.
A. It is presently anticipated that the need for stand-by is for one (1) Information
Technology staff, with the understanding that actual stand-by staffing, if any,
remains at the discretion of the department head.
B. The Stand-by Policy does not apply to FLSA exempt managers and Executive
staff.
C. Stand-by duty requires that an employee be accessible, available, and physically
able to report to work. The employee must possess a City issued mobile phone
device that remains available for immediate contact. The employee must be ready,
willing, and able to respond to an emergency or incident or request for assistance
based on a pre-arranged schedule. Employees on stand-by must respond to the
mobile phone call immediately and be able to respond to the City within one (1)
hour of being called upon. The department head or designee will determine if an
employee is qualified to perform stand-by duties. The stand by duty period shall
be defined by the Department Head.
D. Employees on “stand–by” shall receive two (2) hours of regular straight time
compensation for each date that the employee is assigned to be on stand-by.
Stand-by time is not counted as hours worked for purposes of overtime calculation
as employees are not restricted in their activities and may engage in non-work
related personal activities. On City-recognized Holidays where City Hall is closed,
employees on stand-by will be compensated four (4) hours of straight time
compensation.
E. An employee assigned to stand-by who is not available to report will be subject to
appropriate disciplinary action, unless the employee provides sufficient notice to
their immediate supervisor of their incapacity to respond prior to the call back so
that appropriate arrangements can be made for stand-by coverage.
F. When an employee on “stand-by” is called back to the City, he/she shall be entitled
to “stand-by” pay. Call back duty does not occur when an employee is held over
from his/her prior shift, or is working planned overtime. An employee called back
to duty shall be paid a minimum of four (4) hours of pay at the applicable overtime
rate. Time begins when the call back request is received and ends when the
employee returns home. If work is performed remotely, the employee shall receive
hour for hour compensation at the applicable overtime rate.
38
G. The employee will at times remain able to immediately respond to any
emergencies.
H. Each employee on stand-by duty is accountable to all of the rules and regulations
of the City.
I.
In the event of a call back, the employee will wear his/her City uniform, if
applicable.
39
Section 23. PER DIEM:
Per Diem is intended as a reimbursement to temporary/interim employees recruited
from outside the Los Angeles County area when working in a temporary or interim
assignment due to a critical staffing shortage to cover expenses relating to
lodging/housing, travel, meals, and incidentals. The rate is set at $125.00 for each day
the employee physically reports to work at the City of Vernon. The eligibility to receive
this per diem must be pre-approved and is at the discretion of the City Administrator.
