Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Report on FY 2018/2019 Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee Activity
Recommendation:
A. Find that receiving this report on grants awarded by the Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee 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. Receive and file this report, as it is being provided for informational purposes only.
Background:
As one of the key elements of the City’s good governance reforms, the City Council created the Vernon CommUNITY
Fund (“VCF”) to provide grants to charitable and governmental entities for projects and programs that benefit those
residing and working in Vernon. Given the exclusively industrial nature of Vernon, the City Council determined that the
VCF was in the best interest of the City and its residents, businesses, and workers.
On February 4, 2014, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1218, as amended by Ordinance Nos. 1238 and
1257, to establish the Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee (“Grant Committee”) and provide the basic
guidelines and operational procedures for said Committee and its officers, including those related to the allocation of
funds and the processes for reviewing and ranking applications and awarding grants.
Fiscal Year 2018/2019 Funding
Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code Section 2.164, the City Council may appropriate funds to the VCF. Through the
normal budgetary process, City Council authorized an amount of $1,00,000 to the VCF for fiscal year (“FY”)
2018/2019. The Grant Committee was required to allocate funds for fiscal year 2018/2019 in accordance with the
following formula:
1) Administrative Costs shall be determined for the fiscal year and the amount shall be allocated for payment from funds
appropriated to the VCF.
2) After Administrative Costs, no less than 25% of funds available in any fiscal year shall be awarded to proposals to
expend funds on capital projects with a projected useful life of 10 years or more.
3) The remainder of available funds in any fiscal year may be awarded to proposals to expend funds on direct services
and/or scholarship grants. No single grant of this type shall be in an amount more than $250,000.
Service Grant Awards
The Vernon CommUNITY Fund Grant Committee (“Grant Committee”) held four grant award meetings during the
2018/2019 Fiscal Year. There were four separate grant dockets, with a combined total of 18 Service Grant Awards
approved for FY 2018/2019. All grantees and their awarded amounts are listed in the attached table. The total amount
awarded for Direct Service Grants was $598,200.
Capital Grant Awards
The Committee adopted a Capital Grants Program on May 18, 2016 which defined, among other things, the
parameters of the capital award process and procedures for applicants, and criteria and timeline for awards. For FY
2018/2019, the City’s VCF capital project allocation of 25% equated to $206,000 which was expended in FY
2018/2019 to benefit three separate capital grant projects in the Vernon Area.
Scholarship Grant Awards
At its November 8, 2017 meeting, the VCF Grant Committee agreed to proceed with a VCF Pilot Scholarship
Program for FY 2018/2019. The VCF Grant Committee approved an allocation in the amount of $20,000 toward the
Pilot Scholarship Program. As such, the Grant Committee awarded $20,000 in scholarship grants to a total of seven
high school seniors from the Vernon Area at its May 15, 2019 Grant Committee meeting.
Related Administrative Expenditures
In July of 2017, the City issued a Request for Proposals (“RFP”) for Administrative Management of Vernon
CommUNITY Fund Grant Activities. After a thorough evaluation of respondents’ proposals, Jemmott Rollins Group,
Inc. (“JRG”) was awarded a three (3) year contract with the City to provide administrative management for the VCF
with an effective date of August 1, 2017. JRG has extensive experience in non-profit grant-making and grants
management and specialized knowledge of ethics and principles governing the grant-making process.
During FY 2018/2019, JRG was instrumental in the City’s ability to accept applications, evaluate submissions and,
ultimately, award 28 grants with a grand total value of $824,200. The total budgeted cost for their services in FY
2018/2019 was $174,500. For FY 2019/2020, the administrative management services for the Vernon CommUNITY
Fund Grant Committee activities are anticipated to remain at $174,500 (or less) and will continue to be paid from the
Vernon CommUNITY Fund monetary allocation approved in the FY 2019/2020 budget.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the report on FY 2018/2019 Vernon CommUNITY Fund activity.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-368-2019
Submitted by: Adriana Ramos
Submitting Department: Fire Department
Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Supplemental No. 637 to Services Agreement with Verdugo Fire Communications Dispatch
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. Ratify Supplemental No. 637 to the Services Agreement with Verdugo Fire Communications Dispatch, (Contract
No. FD-0201), increasing the existing contract amount of $313,277.00 by an additional $60,026.50 to cover service
costs in FY 2019/20, for a total contract value of $373,303.50 over the lifetime of the agreement; and
C. Authorize the Purchasing Department to issue payment(s) for Supplemental No. 637 to cover projected dispatch
service costs during Fiscal Year 2019/20 until such time that the transition to LA County Fire Dispatch is complete and
dispatch services with LA County are fully operational.
Background:
On February 2, 2016 the City of Vernon City Council authorized the execution of a three-year Fire Communications
Dispatch Service agreement with the City of Burbank, the City of Glendale and the City of Pasadena (hereinafter
referred to collectively as the “Verdugo Cities”) through Resolution No. 2016-05. The services agreement had an end
date of June 30, 2019, but was automatically renewed to an additional three-year term, in accordance with Section III,
Term, of the Verdugo Fire Communications Dispatch Service Agreement between Verdugo Cities and the City of
Vernon which states:
"This Agreement shall become effective on February 1, 2016, (“EFFECTIVE DATE”) and remain in effect until June
30, 2019, or until terminated in accordance with the termination provisions herein, whichever occurs earlier. For
consideration received, this Agreement will renew automatically for two terms of three years each, unless 180 days prior
to termination of the term, one party provides written notice of intent not to renew to the other party."
With the recent approval of an agreement with the Fire Protection District of Los Angeles County (“LA County Fire”),
dispatch communication services will need to be transitioned over to LA County Fire. The Vernon Fire Department is
currently working with LA County Fire to begin the transition process, as City Council authorized a dispatch agreement
with LA County Fire at its September 3, 2019 City Council meeting. Once the dispatch communications services
transition occurs with LA County Fire and communications are up and running, the City will need to opt-out of its
dispatch service agreement with Verdugo Cities.
With the possibility of a transition to LA County in mind, staff provided written notification to Verdugo Cities in March
of 2019 of the City’s potential need to terminate its dispatch communication services agreement. 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. Therefore, staff is proposing to add
an additional $60,026.50 to its service contract with Verdugo Cities to cover projected dispatch service costs during
the period of July 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019.
Fire Administration received confirmation from the City Attorney’s department that it would be permissible to continue
services with Verdugo Cities, based upon the determination that this is a public entity contract and it would be
commercially unreasonable to rebid the contract, pursuant to the Vernon Municipal Code (“VMC”), Section 2.17.30
(B).
Fiscal Impact:
Supplemental No. 637 would increase the agreement amount by $60,026.50, resulting in a new total contract amount of
$373,303.50. Funds for this agreement have been proposed on the 2019/20 fiscal year budget.

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-410-2019
Submitted by: Mark Aumentado
Submitting Department: Public Utilities
Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Acceptance of Work and Notice of Completion for Contract No. LP-0434 –Well No. 16 Pump and Motor Project
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the 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 § 15378; and
B. Accept the Work by General Pump Company, Inc. with regard to the Well No. 16 Pump and Motor project,
Contract No. LP-0434; and
C. Authorize the Interim General Manager of Public Utilities to submit for recordation to the Los Angeles County
Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk (“County Clerk”) the Notice of Completion for the Well No. 16 Pump and Motor
Project.
Background:
Vernon Public Utilities (VPU) obtained approval to advertise a Notice Inviting Bids (NIB) for the Well No. 16 Pump
and Motor Project (“Project”). The Contract was awarded by City Council to General Pump Company, Inc. (“GPC”)
on August 7, 2018. The primary objective of the Project was to replace the failed pump and motor and repair Well No.
16 (“Well”). As a secondary objective, the pumping capacity of the Well was to be reduced to mitigate any potential
influence the Well may have had on nearby Well No.11.
The Project began on September 24, 2018. Two Change Orders for time extensions were approved by the City
Administrator and the Contract Time was extended to December 5, 2019. The contractor completed the Work,
however, due to unforeseen variations in site conditions, Well 16 produced more water than anticipated. Well 16’s
production rate was approximately 800 gallons per minute (gpm), which did not conform to the specified 600 gpm.
With Well 16 performing outside of the specifications, the motor is less efficient and well components experience
additional wear.
On May 21, 2019, Well 16 experienced a mechanical failure. The cause of the failure was unrelated to the
aforementioned issue; the motor failure was resolved via manufacturer warranty. Since Well 16’s pump and motor was
pulled to determine the cause of failure, it was a good opportunity for the pump issue to be addressed while saving the
City the additional expense to pull and install the pump and motor if addressed at a future date.
GPC provided a new pump bowl assembly to the City to resolve the pump issue. At the same time, GPC installed new
column pipe to increase the velocity of the water to solve an unrelated sand issue. Well No. 16 is now performing per
the Project specifications and is back online as of July 12, 2019.
Fiscal Impact:
General Pump Company, Inc. was awarded the contract for the Well 16 Pump and Motor Project in the amount of
$71,000.00. The project was completed on budget for a total of $71,000.00. No cost is associated with submitting the
Notice of Completion for recordation with the County Clerk.

Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Resolution Appointing Jim Enriquez to Serve as Interim Fire Chief and Approving and Authorizing the Execution of a
Related Temporary At-Will Employment Agreement
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed actions are exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review,
because they are administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and
therefore do not constitute a "project" as defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and
B. Adopt the attached resolution appointing Jim Enriquez to serve as Interim Fire Chief of the City of Vernon effective
September 17, 2019, and approving and authorizing the execution of a related temporary at-will employment
agreement.
Background:
With the impending retirement of the current Fire Chief and the need for continued management and oversight of the
Fire Department, the City Administrator is recommending approval of the appointment of an Interim Fire Chief for the
period until the City transitions the fire service to Los Angeles County.
The Fire Chief is an executive-level position responsible for the management and operation of fire protection services
within the City of Vernon and requires an individual with specific skills and experience in the fire service.
Candidate Background: Jim Enriquez has more than thirty-three years of experience in the fire service. Mr. Enriquez
spent his entire career working for the Los Angeles County Fire Department rising through the ranks into Chief Officer
positions in various capacities. Most recently, Mr. Enriquez served as an Assistant Chief overseeing 251 Fire
Department Personnel serving nine cities and unincorporated areas within Los Angeles County. Prior to serving as an
Assistant Fire Chief, Mr. Enriquez served for thirteen years in a variety of Administrative and Operations Battalion Chief
positions, including serving as an Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.
Mr. Enriquez has an Associate Degree from Citrus Community College, a Bachelors Degree from Cogswell
Polytechnical College, and a Masters Degree from Cal State Long Beach. In 2017, Mr. Enriquez participated in a

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-329-2019
Submitted by: Masami Higa
Submitting Department: Finance/ Treasury
Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Amendment No. 2 to the Services Agreement with Vasquez and Company LLP for Professional Auditing Services for
Fiscal Years 2016-2018
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
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. Even if such
were a project, it would be exempt from CEQA review in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the general rule is that
CEQA only applies to activities that may have a significant effect on the environment; and
B. Find that it is in the best interest of the City to approve a direct award of the contract and exempt this amendment
from competitive selection based on this determination pursuant to City Code Article IV Section 2.17.12(B)(2); and
C. Approve Amendment No. 2 to the services agreement with Vasquez & Company LLP for professional auditing
services for fiscal years 2016-2018, in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, renewing the agreement
through August 6, 2020 for a total not to exceed amount of $110,000 for the renewal term; and
D. Authorize the City Administrator to execute Amendment No. 2 to provide Audit Services for one additional Fiscal
Year (Year Ended June 30, 2019) to audit the Annual Financial Report of the City and Epic Land Solution's Phase II
Asset Valuation Report.
Background:
Article VIII Section 8.ll of the Vernon Charter requires the City Council to appoint a California Certified Public
Accountant or firm of Certified Public Accountants to provide an independent, annual audit of all City accounts,
including the accounts of all departments, officers, and employees who receive, handle, or disburse public funds.
Under Vernon Code Chapter 2, Article IV, Sec. 2.17.12(A) (10) professional services contracts are exempt from
competitive bidding. The Vernon Code also provides an exemption from competitive selection on such specific
contracts where it has been determined that in the best interests of the City that a direct award of the contract can be
made. Although exempt, in 2013, the City performed a Request for Proposal (RFP) for professional independent audit
services. After a thorough solicitation process, Vasquez and Company was awarded the contract based on its technical
merit and expertise.
Vasquez and Company LLP is a well-established Certified Public Accounting firm that has been successfully serving
many governmental clients for over 50 years (See Attachment 1 for Vasquez Professional Auditing Services). Due to
Vasquez and Company's technical merit and expertise, the City was able to record its governmental infrastructure assets
under GASB 34 and 51 for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2017. The City expects to record its business-type
infrastructure assets under GASB 34 and 51 for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019. It is critical that the City does
not change its auditor midway through a project, as it will delay the recognition of those assets, and prolong the credit
concerns of the City (See Attachment 2 for Vasquez Engagement Letter). As such, staff requests that the City Council
find it is in the best interest of the City to award the contract directly to Vasquez without a competitive bidding process.
The proposed Amendment No. 2 has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney's Office. Staff has initiated the
RFP process for the selection of an auditing firm for future fiscal years.
Fiscal Impact:
Amendment No. 2 with Vasquez will not exceed $110,000 during the renewal term (See Attachment 3 for Vasquez
Cost Proposal and Attachment 4 for Contract Amendment No. 2) and has been included in the FY 2019/2020 budget
for the Finance Department. With the addition of Amendment No.2, the total not to exceed amount over the life of the
agreement is $425,594.00.

Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost
Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
A large number of our government clients receive federal funds. Our success in effectively serving these
entities is based in part, on our significant knowledge and experience with U.S. Office of Management and
Budget new Federal regulations entitled “Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards at 2 CFR 200” (the Uniform Guidance).
We are proposing for the City, an engagement team with substantial experience in auditing governmental
entities for both financial and compliance audits. Our industry-focused staff has undergone training courses
dedicated to governmental accounting, auditing, and financial reporting, as well as specialized training in
the compliance requirements of OMB Uniform Guidance regarding changes in Single Audit requirements.
Our partners have conducted training for professional organizations on the subject of the new Uniform
Guidance. The Uniform Guidance includes several requirements, some of which are:
Financial management systems must include such items as written procedures for determining
the allowability of costs in accordance with cost principles and the terms and conditions of the
federal awards, and written procedures to implement the requirements for cash management.
Time and payroll cost distribution records must be maintained for all employees whose salary
is paid in whole or in part with federal funds, and payroll costs allocated to federal programs
may not be based on budget estimates alone, but instead must reflect the actual expenditure of
effort.
Accounting records must be supported by a system of internal controls which provides
reasonable assurance that amounts are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated.
Internal controls should be in compliance with the guidance contained in “Internal Control
Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO).
Procurement standards covering small purchases, micro-purchases, sealed bids, competitive
proposals, and sole source procurements that must be adhered.
Subrecipient monitoring includes the requirement that each potential subrecipient must be
evaluated for risk of noncompliance with Federal requirements, must be monitored, and must
be audited when required, with the audit results considered by the awarding entity.
The entity must establish and maintain effective internal controls over federal awards, including
establishing reasonable budgets that minimize incentives to miscode expenditures and
performing risk assessments to identify procedures and controls that should be strengthened to
prevent or identify unallowable activities.
Property records must be supported by at least a bi-annual physical inventory and include all
the data elements outlined in the regulations.
Awards of contracts for goods or services on a sole source basis must be supported by a written
justification.
Any interest earned on federal monies must be credited back to the federal government.

Management Letter Comments
Providing value-added management letter comments is a priority for Vasquez. The unique experience that
our auditors/consultants possess enables us to provide meaningful assistance beyond what most audit
firms can provide. We do this through many different forms, but it comes primarily in the form of early
identification of issues before they become major problems for our clients. We meet with our clients
throughout the year so that we can get a better understanding of the challenges they are facing. Our clients
have realized many benefits, including improved operational efficiencies, security, and proactive prevention
of potential future audit issues.
During routine procedures performed by one of our IT auditors over the implementation of a new ERP
system at one of our new clients, our IT Manager noted that the client’s IT department and IT consultant
had not addressed key issues that were critical to the operations of our client. We immediately brought our
concerns to the attention of upper management who took action right away. Although our comments did
cause a delay in the go-live date, the client realized it was in their best interest to delay the launch so that
the concerns identified could be addressed leading to fewer disruptions to operations.
GASB Pronouncements
Our firm encourages early adoption of all applicable Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
statements. Some of these standards have been monumental in establishing new financial reporting
requirements for state and local governments throughout the United States and restructured much of the
information that had been presented in the past.
We take a proactive approach in assisting all our government clients in understanding GASB activities from
exposure drafts to the implementation of new standards. We accomplish this through our collaborations
with GASB, GFOA, ASBO, AICPA Government Audit Quality Center, and by taking the time to sit down
with clients to discuss and plan for the impact of new GASB standards.
As a member of the RSM US Alliance, Vasquez personnel are updated through RSM’s formal and informal
relationships with the officials of most key federal departments. They have participated as an advisor to the
President’s Council on Integrity and Efficiency through the Quality of Audit Roundtable. They also maintain
relationships with officials in the Office of Inspector General of many federal departments and agencies, as
well as close working relationships with key officials within GAO and OMB.
Pronouncements Issued But Not Yet Adopted
The GASB has issued pronouncements that have effective dates on or after June 30, 2018, which may
impact future financial presentations. We will be pleased to help the City implement the Statements that
have been issued, but not yet implemented and to discuss what, if any, impact the implementation of the
statements may have on the financial statements of the City.
We take a very proactive approach in helping our clients understand GASB activities from exposure drafts,
such as the GASB Statement No. 75 on Other Post-Employment Benefits, to implementation of new
standards. We accomplish this through our collaborations with GASB, GFOA, and the AICPA Government
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 11
Audit Quality Center, and more importantly by taking the time to sit down with clients to discuss and plan
for the impact of new GASB standards.
Recognizing that your interests are best served by highly qualified, knowledgeable and trained accountants
and auditors, we offer our staff and our client's frequent training in current technical matters and subjects
of importance to the finance, accounting and auditing aspects of local governments. We will provide the
City a minimum of eight (8) hours of continuing professional education annually, and will also invite you to
our annual Governmental Update Conference. As your accounting and business advisor, we embrace a
forward-thinking approach on upcoming accounting pronouncements and will work with the City to facilitate
timely implementation. We provide guidance and training to your personnel on the implementation of new
GASB requirements and specifics of Federal and State of California regulations as they pertain to local
government accounting early so that the City personnel will be able to provide the necessary information
that will allow for an efficient and cost-effective audit.
Quality Control
Vasquez has an extensive quality control program designed to monitor compliance with the audit and
accounting professional standards and firm policies. Our client service approach requires the active
involvement of experienced partners and managers in the consulting and audit engagements to make sure
that the critical issue is identified and resolved on a timely basis.
Review Process
All audit engagements are required to have a secondary review by either a report review specialist or a
concurring reviewer. Before the reports, the financial statements and any letter communicating reportable
conditions and other letters are released, they must be reviewed by a report review specialist not otherwise
associated with the engagement. The report review specialist’s role is supportive of that of the partner and,
organizationally, they are responsible for one or more offices.
Before the commencement of fieldwork and as the engagement progresses toward completion, the report
review specialist is expected to aid the partner and the audit team in resolving difficult accounting, auditing,
and reporting issues. Upon completion of the partner review and before the release of the report, the report
review specialist must review the financial statements, our report thereon, and the letter communicating
reportable control structure conditions and any other special reports or letters to be issued.
The audit plan should be reviewed and concurred with by a concurring reviewer designated for the industry
before the commencement of fieldwork if the industry is designated as “high risk” by firm policy or when
engagement risk is otherwise assessed as high, and the engagement is a first-time audit for the firm. If a
concurring review is performed during planning, this reviewer will also perform a review of all of the firm’s
reports, as well as discussing significant audit findings and issues with the engagement partner.
Performance Monitoring and Assessment
The objective of the engagement performance element of our quality control is to provide reasonable
assurance that:
Engagements are consistently performed in accordance with applicable professional standards and
regulatory and legal requirements
Our firm or engagement partner issues reports that are appropriate in the circumstances
Policies and procedures for engagement performance address all phases of the design and execution of
the engagement, including engagement performance, supervision responsibilities, and review
responsibilities. Policies and procedures require that consultation takes place when appropriate. Also, our
firm has established criteria against which all engagements are to be evaluated to determine whether an
engagement quality control review should be performed.
We satisfy the above objectives by establishing and maintaining the following policies and procedures:
Planning for engagements meets professional, regulator, and firm requirements.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 12
Qualified engagement team members review work performed by other team members on a timely
basis.
Vasquez establishes procedures addressing the nature, timing, extent, and documentation of the
engagement quality control review.
Vasquez establishes criteria for the eligibility of engagement quality control reviewers.
Vasquez requires that consultation take place when appropriate; that sufficient and appropriate
resources are available to enable appropriate consultation to take place; that all the relevant facts
known to the engagement team are provided to those consulted; that the nature, scope, and
conclusions of such consultations are documented; and that conclusions resulting from such
consultations are implemented.
Management follow-up procedure internally called “Voice of the Client” to set the tone of “how we did” and
“where can we improve.”
Federal or State Desk or Field Reviews
Vasquez has not had any Federal or State desk reviews or field reviews in the past three (3) years. Vasquez
has not had any complaints filed against it with the California State Board of Accountancy or any other
oversight agency for substandard work or any other reason.
Peer Review Report
Vasquez is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Division of Firms
and received a Peer Review Rating of “Pass” without comment - the highest rating from the AICPA on its
peer review dated February 22, 2017. This peer review covered several government engagements similar
in size and complexity as the City. A copy of the peer review opinion follows:

Partner, Supervisory and Staff Qualifications and Experience
Our team structure, staffing, service approach, communication, and coordination are refined to fit the unique
needs of the City. We staff our engagements with individuals focused on a dedicated industry because of
their desire to make a positive impact with their careers, resulting in continuity of the team members you
work with year after year.
Our expertise in the government industry allows our team to understand the nuances of your specific
business and translate that knowledge into better solutions, faster responses to your questions and a more
comfortable (and valuable) working relationship overall.
We devote significant time to training and research activities to understand the economics, operations, and
trends affecting local government. Our perspective is that of a knowledgeable independent auditor who can
relate to the unique aspects of the City. This perspective enables us to provide efficient and cost-effective
audit services for our clients.
You should note that the audit team we are proposing for the City assignment has experience with other
entities similar to yours.
Partner Involvement
Our structure ensures that senior engagement team members can spend time on-site, checking the quality
of our work, not just verifying we are on target to meet deadlines. Our engagement partners will provide
frequent, valuable on-site interaction with City staff and close supervision of the audit team. Ms. Canieda
and all senior members will engage in regularly scheduled meetings with you to answer questions, provide
guidance, and help ensure issues are identified and resolved promptly. With our partners on site, informal
meetings can more readily occur, and issues get resolved in front of your desk rather than behind ours.
Vasquez has built its reputation on close partner involvement and maintaining strong client
relationships. We have structured our engagement team with extensive partner involvement. You will find
our average partner-to-staff leverage ratio is higher than most other firms.
Beyond partner leadership and support, an audit is only as
good as the people doing the bulk of the work on a day-to-day
basis. We are committed to providing a staff resource pool
that embodies the attributes that you expect of your auditor,
including technical expertise in GASB, knowledge of the
government and private industries, and softer skills such as
respect, empathy, and timely response to questions. Each
team member that we have allocated to serve the City brings
relevant experience and receives industry training through our
Continuing Professional Education program.

What Our Clients Say:
“Thanks for your assistance with this process. It's been of great value working with you and
your firm. Some of the issues and questions raised during the audit process will serve to help
us further improve our operations.”
City of Simi Valley

Technical Proposal for Professional Auditing Services 19
Specific Audit Approach
As part of an audit engagement, we leverage a formal project management methodology to help ensure
that all tasks are planned effectively and ultimately completed on time and that any changes in the schedule
will be properly documented and authorized. As part of the planning process, we will work with you to agree
upon a communications plan that will set forth the protocols for periodic status updates and escalations
throughout the project. Throughout the audit, we will provide regular status reporting consistent with the
communications plan.
Embedded within your audit team are experienced project managers who have strong project management
skills. These Vasquez team leaders will provide highly collaborative project management expertise and
consultation to the City to help ensure that there are no surprises during the audit. Additionally, Vasquez
will continuously look for ways to improve the management and execution of the audit. We want to ensure
that audit planning, scheduling, and budgeting are executed properly and on a timely basis.
Vasquez’s commitment is to be on-site at the City to perform supervision and workpaper reviews, and hold
status meetings. Cristy Canieda, as the audit engagement partner, and Cid Conde, as the audit manager,
will be on-site to perform their respective duties.
At each phase of our engagement, our client service standards guide us toward providing an exceptional
customer experience – one in which we become a trusted adviser and bring innovative ideas and solutions
that deliver value to you.
We understand. Our audit and consulting professionals follow
our CaseWare process, which provides us with a thorough
understanding of your business, current situation, needs, and
expectations to help ensure there will be no surprises at each
phase of the engagement.
We communicate. Our team is trained to communicate with
consistent and open dialogue at the right time to the right people.
We collaborate. We collaborate to bring together the right
expertise to meet your needs, resolve emerging issues
proactively, and bring innovative ideas and solutions that
deliver value to you.
We deliver. We deliver what we promise – on time, on budget,
and with the highest quality.
At Vasquez, we want to build strong relationships with our clients and continuously seek to understand
ways in which we can ensure the services we are providing are in alignment with their needs. We believe
it is important to strive for continuous improvement in the ways we interact with and deliver services to
clients. We do this, in part, by adhering to defined client service standards and seeking feedback on our
performance from our clients.
Every financial statement audit engagement presents a different set of challenges. No two organizations
are the same, and therefore, we must tailor the audit to each organization based on the specific risks
identified.
Our audit approach is based on a risk assessment process which is planned and executed by
experienced auditors. The results as depicted below form the basis for our audit strategy and
procedures, and ultimately yield practical comments for strengthening internal controls and
improving practices, as well as our opinion on the financial statements and our auditor’s reports
on internal control and compliance with laws and regulations.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 20
Risk Assessment
The design of an effective audit plan depends on the audit team’s ability to identify and assess the risk that
the financial statements contain a material misstatement, whether caused by error or fraud. The risk
assessment process will include:
Obtaining an understanding of the City, its component units, and the environment in which they
operate, including efforts to understand the events, conditions, and organizational activities that
might reasonably be expected to have a significant effect on the risks of material misstatement. An
understanding of the City and the environment will often involve consideration of such things like
the regulatory environment, business objectives and strategies, and selection of an application of
accounting principles.
Considering information gathered during the engagement acceptance and continuance evaluation,
including prior reports, audit planning activities, prior audits, and other non-audit engagements
performed for the City.
Inquiring of the audit committee, management, and others within the City about risks of material
misstatement.
Obtaining an understanding of the City’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Performing analytical procedures, such as a comparison of the City’s current financial statement
account balances to prior year financial statements and budgeted amounts and/or comparison of
current relevant financial ratios to industry ratios or prior year ratios.
Developing an Audit Strategy
In developing an audit strategy, we may decide to perform tests of the City’s internal control over certain
systems and processes. We assess the desirability of adopting such a strategy by considering factors such
as cost/benefit considerations, the volume of transactions, and prior year results of control testing. If test

results indicate that a City’s internal controls are effective, we may decide to reduce the level of
substantive tests that it performs as a basis for its opinion.

Phase I – Audit Planning
The planning phase lays the foundation for the direction of our audit efforts. It encompasses the following
steps:
Conducting entrance conferences with the appropriate City management personnel. The agenda
would include, but need not be limited to, the following:
The application of generally accepted accounting principles
Concerns of City management
Report requirements, refinements, and deadlines
Initial audit approach and timing schedule
Assistance by City personnel
Establishment of principal contacts
Progress reporting process
Consideration of Fraud in a Financial Statement Audit
The auditors’ responsibility for fraud prevention
Scheduling inquiries of management and others (including non-accounting personnel) about
the risk of fraud
We believe it is important for us to assist the City to implement new accounting, auditing, and
compliance requirements. It is for that reason we intend to schedule training with City personnel
involved in all phases of the audit for them to have a clear understanding of the latest technical
changes for their respective areas as well as have a clear understanding of the audit
requirements and timeline. The training with be provided live or in webcast format as desired.
Expanding our understanding of the City and its operating environments. We will accomplish
this by familiarizing ourselves and updating our knowledge of applicable background information
pertinent to the City, its component units, their mission, funding source, and structure through
our review of the following:
Applicable state legislation
The City’s charter and Municipal Code
Organizational charts
Minutes of Council and Audit Committee meetings
Policies and procedures manuals, administrative codes, rules and regulations
Description of the City’s financial and other information systems
Recent financial statements and key operating statistics
Reports of special audits by regulators or other auditors
Contracts and major commitments
Grant agreements
Significant operating agreements
Cost allocation plans
Possible effects on the City of the actions of regulatory agencies
Fraud risk assessment processes
Utility rate ordinances
Bond ordinances and offering statements
IT Strategic Plan
Through our background knowledge of the City, and because of our fact-finding process, we will
develop an in-depth understanding of the areas of concern. We will be in a position to meet with
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 23
the City management to discuss areas that might have a significant impact on the timing and
completion of the audits or that may be of special concern to management. We will review such
areas in-depth to obtain an early understanding and resolution of any "problem" areas that may
impede our progress and to develop our overall approach so that the City will have sufficient time
to develop the data necessary for the completion of the audit with a minimum amount of disruption
of the day-to-day routine.
Our planning process will include a specific review of computer activities performed by the City
personnel to:
Determine the organizational and operational controls over the data being processed,
including, but not limited to: system development and maintenance controls, hardware
controls and access controls
Evaluate the degree of "control consciousness" among personnel
Determine the potential impact of general control strengths and weaknesses
Consider the possibility of management override of controls.
Our principal sources of information for this review will be interviews with responsible
accounting and computer operations personnel, reviews of program documentation for the
City’s system, as well as direct observations made by our audit team.
The audit team will use our analytical review techniques to identify other areas that may require
attention. Until the year-end account balances are finalized, our review will focus on budgets
compared to actual/projected information. We can thus identify sensitive areas to determine
whether they are indeed areas requiring extra attention. We will also focus on unusual
fluctuations occurring within individual funds to identify accounts and areas which merit further
investigation.
Based on our understanding of the City’s operating environment, through our analytical review
and other planning procedures, we will meet with City personnel to highlight areas to be
emphasized during the audit. We will concentrate our efforts on the identified areas of audit
concern and areas that we know to be important to City management. Some of our preliminary
audit concerns are elaborated as follows:
Compliance with applicable laws, regulations and reporting requirements
Receipt of all revenue to which the City is entitled
Purchase authorizations within budgetary limitations
Adequate safeguarding of City cash, investments and inventory assets
We will work directly with the appropriate City personnel to discuss the financial statements and
footnotes, in accordance with all authoritative accounting systems and interpretations.
Accordingly, we will meet to discuss and agree upon the format for the individual and general
purpose financial statements and any additional requirements that may be relevant because of
recent or pending professional pronouncements. (See "Phase IV - Completion" for a more in-
depth discussion of our financial reporting capabilities.)
Interim audit testing
Our audit approach is flexible and can be tailored to fit the evolving needs of the City. We will work with you
to review the current audit schedule to determine the best approach for the various phases of the financial
statement audit. We provide you the option of interim audit effort or after year-end. There are several
advantages to performing interim testing, such as:
It shifts the timing of our testing into less busy periods of the year for your staff and our staff.
It allows us to focus on the high-risk areas before the year-end close, which provides more time
to deal with issues if any.
It allows us to judge the quality of the interim period, rather than solely year-end, financial statement
information and cut-offs which allows more opportunity for us to identify and for the City to
implement best practices over internal controls and processes.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 24
There are advantages to performing interim audit testing and, as we stated previously, we will work with
you to determine the best approach, and you will control this process.
Phase II – Control Evaluation
The steps included in this phase are as follows:
See IT Control Evaluation beginning on page 39.
Our systems evaluation approach enables us to obtain a better understanding of the various
transaction cycles and sub-cycles and how they relate to each other. By using narrative and
flowcharting techniques for each cycle, we will identify the critical points in the flow of financial
information. Our basic technique begins with the information contained in the financial
statements and traces such information back to source data. This process is infinitely superior
to the traditional tedious method of going from source data to the financial statements.
We will evaluate the effectiveness of the control design by identifying the strengths and
weaknesses in each of the transaction sub-cycles and sub-audit areas that have a bearing on
the audit objectives. This identification of internal control strengths and weaknesses will enable
the audit team to determine the emphasis to be placed on audit testing. It will also serve as a
basis for the development of conclusions and recommendations regarding weaknesses in the
systems of internal accounting controls and opportunities for improving efficiency and
effectiveness.
Our engagement service team will prepare a tailored audit program unique to the City based
upon the identification of internal control strengths and weaknesses and the result of our risk
assessment. Our audit programs are tailored into a unique, efficient, and effective document
addressing the audit objectives, issues, and systems of the City.
We will inquire of management and others (including non-accounting personnel) regarding their
perception of fraud risks and their knowledge of systems and techniques in place to manage and
mitigate those risks.
Our engagement team will discuss and consider the susceptibility of financial statement to fraud
and emphasize professional skepticism. We will obtain information necessary to identify the risks
of material misstatement due to fraud. We will identify risks that may result in material
misstatement due to fraud. We will assess the identified risks after considering an evaluation of
the antifraud programs and controls. We will respond to the identified risks.
We will test transaction cycles using statistical and judgmental sampling methodologies to
determine whether the necessary control procedures are prescribed and followed satisfactorily.
Also, if there are any deviations in our sample selection, we will expand the sample size, and if
the additional sample confirms the deviation problem, we will use statistical techniques to
extrapolate the dollar value of the deviation where appropriate.
We will obtain reasonable assurance that controls are functioning properly through observation,
inquiry, and inspection of documents and records.
For the items tested, we will identify any failures to execute control procedures and prepare an
initial management letter recommendation or internal control finding. In addition to documenting
the condition and criteria, we will develop the cause and effect, and propose a recommendation.
We will communicate and review the initial management letter comments and findings with the
management of the City.
We will provide periodic written progress reports on the planning and test work performed during
the planning and interim fieldwork phases and discuss the schedule to complete the audits most
economically.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 25
Phase III – Substantive Testing
Sampling is one of the methods we use to obtain efficiency in the audit process. In designing and
implementing a sampling plan, we consider the specific audit objective to be achieved and determine that
the audit procedures to be applied will achieve that objective. We will:
Define the objective of the test.
Define the population to be sampled, the element of the population to be examined (sampling unit)
and what an error is.
Determine which sampling technique is most appropriate.
Determine appropriate sample size and select a sample that is intended to be representative of
the population.
Examine each sample item to determine whether it represents an error or exception.
Substantive Testing – The purpose of the substantive tests is to provide reasonable assurance of the validity
of the information produced by the accounting system. These tests will include various detail tests, such as
inspection of underlying source documents, confirmations, and reconciliations. We will also perform analytical
procedures, including ratio analysis, comparisons of actual-to-budget information, and other procedures.
Specifically, tests that we have found to be effective and efficient for City audits include tests such as
confirmation of cash, investments, grants receivable, loan balances and debt; tests of subsequent receipts
for selected receivables and unrecorded liabilities for payables.
Analytical Review Procedures – Analytical review procedures, consisting of statistical, ratio, and trend
analyses are performed during every phase of the audit, from planning to reporting. These analytical testing
techniques provide feedback on potential areas of audit concern as well as provide comfort concerning the
overall reasonableness of the financial statements. Analytical procedures are especially helpful when
analyzing utility operations and receivables.
Consideration of Fraud – The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with
those charged with governance and with management. It is important that management, with the oversight
of those charged with governance, places a strong emphasis on fraud prevention, which may reduce
opportunities for fraud to take place, and fraud deterrence, which could persuade individuals not to commit
fraud because of the likelihood of detection and punishment. This involves a commitment to creating a
culture of honesty and ethical behavior, which can be reinforced by active oversight by those charged with
governance. Oversight by those charged with governance includes considering the potential for an override
of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process.
We are responsible for obtaining reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material
misstatement whether caused by fraud or error. As part of our audit planning process, we will perform
procedures to obtain information that will be used for identifying the risks of material misstatement due to
fraud, such as the following:
Discussions with management and others within the City. These discussions would focus on
obtaining an understanding of management’s: (a) assessment of the risk that the financial
We will evaluate and test selected manual and automated (IT) controls to provide valuable
feedback concerning internal controls and to streamline the audit processes.
Our pratice is to use the City’s existing schedules, account analyses, reports and other
documents to avoid unnecessary demands on City personnel.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 26
statements may be materially misstated due to fraud, including the nature, extent, and frequency
of such assessments; (b) process for identifying, responding to, and monitoring the risks of fraud
in the City, including any specific risks of fraud that management has identified or that have been
brought to its attention, or classes of transactions, account balances, or disclosures for which a risk
of fraud is likely to exist; (c) communication, if any, to those charged with governance regarding its
processes for identifying and responding to the risks of fraud in the City; and (d) communication, if
any, to employees regarding its views on business practices and ethical behavior. We will also
make inquiries of management, and others within the City as appropriate, to determine whether
they know any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud affecting the City.
Discussions with those charged with governance. We will obtain an understanding of how those
charged with governance exercise oversight of management’s processes for identifying and
responding to the risks of fraud in the City and the internal control that management has established
to mitigate these risks.
Evaluation of unusual or unexpected relationships identified. Unusual or unexpected relationships,
variances, or balances that we may identify during our preliminary analytical review procedures will
be evaluated for an indication of risks of material misstatement due to fraud.
Discussions among our audit team members. This discussion will involve an exchange of ideas or
brainstorming among our audit team members about how and where the City’s financial statements
might be susceptible to material misstatement due to fraud, how management could perpetrate and
conceal fraudulent financial reporting, and how assets of the City could be misappropriated.
Adjusting Journal Entries – Adjusting journal entries proposed by our auditors, if any, will be discussed and
explained to the Chief Financial Officer and others as appropriate. It is our practice to discuss issues and
proposed audit entries with the program manager or management personnel immediately responsible for the
program to ensure that we have not misunderstood that particular situation. This will ensure that the proposed
entry or management comment and recommendation are accepted by the immediate manager in charge, and
will ensure that the recommendation is feasible and makes business sense. It is also our policy to address
issues and resolve them as they arise, rather than at the end of the audit. In short, there will not be any
surprises.
The final element in our work plan is the continual reporting to City management personnel to apprise them
of our progress. We believe communication is vital. We have stressed the importance of continuous close
relationships throughout this proposal and have indicated the various points where we will meet for specific
discussions and decisions.
Phase IV - Reporting
Review federal, state, and other grant reporting requirements;
Determine which internal control findings are significant deficiencies or material weaknesses;
Prepare findings and draft the auditors’ reports;
Review draft reports with City management; and
Evaluate management feedback and proposed corrective actions, make revisions as necessary, and
finalize the report.
Ample time will be provided for management review of all reports in draft form.
Management letter
Any and all potential exceptions or findings will be immediately discussed with knowledgeable
personnel and summarized in weekly status meetings to ensure accuracy of any findings, time
for management to correct noted deficiencies and the avoidance of any surprises.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 27
After our audit, separate from any significant internal control deficiencies or items of noncompliance we
may have identified and included in the respective auditors’ reports, we will also provide our comments and
observations for improvements to operating, accounting and business practices. The diverse experience of
our personnel, the fresh perspectives of our team members, combined with their independent and objective
viewpoints, will likely yield valuable information. The findings and other comments will contain, as warranted
and appropriate:
Specific recommendations for improvement of the accounting practices and procedures and the
internal accounting and administrative controls.
Comments on the design, controls, and audit trails of new and redesigned automated systems,
along with suggestions to improve processing methods and procedures.
Suggestions for operational improvements or cost efficiencies noted during our examination.
Comments relative to ensuring compliance with the applicable laws, rules, and regulations,
including Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and U.S. Government Accountability Office
(GAO) guidance and regulations.
Comments regarding the implementation of the new GASB pronouncements.
Other comments, recommendations, or observations regarding best practices that we believe may
be of interest.
Information Systems Controls
Understanding how key systems and processes contribute to your overall processing environment and
affect the reliability of financial information is a primary element of our audit approach. Our objective is to
assess whether the standards of security, integrity, continuity, and control are conducive to reliable
processing, consistent with the City’s technology standards and appropriate to safeguard your information
assets.
IT general controls
IT general controls are pervasive controls within the IT environment. The following types of IT general
controls are typically addressed in our audit approach:
Logical security (access to programs and data)—includes the components of management
governance over Information Technology (policies and procedures, monitoring), application
configuration (passwords, service accounts, super users, user identification/authentication), and
security of the physical assets.
Change control management—assesses program changes (upgrades, service patches, source
code) moved into the production environment and the processes applied to ensure the appropriate
initiation, authorization, segregation, testing, and approval are evident.
Data backup and recovery—reviews that the data backup process and ability to recover data for
the financially significant applications, databases, spreadsheets, and operating systems for the
given opinion period are complete, tested and maintained, including the handling of errors.
Job processing—tests for the completeness of data interfacing into the financially significant
applications and the change management processes for handling errors, script changes, and
interface edits.
Security administration—addresses the user access provisioning (new hire on-boarding,
position/role changes, employee separation) for the financially significant applications, databases,
spreadsheets, and operating systems, along with management’s review of access for
completeness, segregation of responsibilities and accuracy.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 28
IT application controls
IT application controls apply to the business processes they support. These controls are embedded within
the software applications to prevent or detect unauthorized transactions. When combined with manual
controls, application controls verify completeness, accuracy, authorization, and validity of processing
transactions. Our methodology for assessing application controls is as follows:
Define materiality by the system, such as utility billing, cashiering, purchasing and disbursements,
revenues, payroll and asset management, using business process mapping as a starting point.
Map various transaction types to identify key controls and determine if the control is an application
control or manual control.
Utilize our proprietary questionnaires to help verify and test various types of automated controls.
Through inquiry, review of written policies and procedures, and on-site testing evaluate application
security controls, which are controls to verify that minimum access to applications is allowed for
individuals to perform their job.
Through inquiry, review of written policies and procedures, and on-site testing evaluate input
controls which ensure that transactions are initially recorded, entered and accepted by the
application accurately and completely.
By developing and testing a sample of transactions, evaluate processing controls, which ensure
that transactions are processed by the application programs accurately and completely.
Through inquiry and review of written policies and procedures, evaluate output controls, which
ensure that output is complete and is delivered (standard or customized) to the appropriate parties
in an appropriate manner.
Through inquiry, review of written policies and procedures and tests of a sample of transactions,
evaluate interface controls, which ensure that transactions between multiple systems are secure
and integrity of the information transmitted is maintained, accurate and complete.
Significant Accounts or Classes of Transactions
Grant Accounting – the City, receives a significant amount of grants from the State and Federal
governments. Accounting for the various types of grants can be complex since the City has multiple
programs administered in a decentralized environment. In conjunction with our Single Audit testing, we will
select a sample of grant awards for the year, read the grant agreement and determine if the receivables,
revenue, and resulting net assets are recorded in accordance with GASB Statements.
Claims and Judgments – Because the City is self-insured for its risks of loss, we will obtain an understanding
of the process the City uses to determine and measure all known risks and report them in the financial
statements. Our analysis will also include the estimate of incurred but not reported claims. We will perform
a retrospective review of prior estimates to determine if there appears to be biased in the development of
these estimates. An RSM professional liability actuary assists the engagement team in assessing the
qualifications of actuaries used by clients, actuarial assumptions used, and the reasonableness of valuation
methodologies.
Pension and Other Post-employment Benefits – Vasquez has access to actuaries who assist the
engagement team with reviewing the reputation and qualifications of actuaries used by clients, actuarial
assumptions used, and the overall valuations. We review the reports provided by CalPERS and perform
census testing required by GASB 68 and GASB 75. Additionally, we will test the information provided to the
various actuaries to ensure it reflects current and complete data.
Personnel Services Expenses – We will select individual payroll transactions for testing monetary accuracy
and compliance with key controls. Control characteristics which will be tested include:
Out testing of IT application controls provides strong audit evidence and streamlines the audit
process.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 29
Accuracy of initial payroll information
Supervisory approval of payroll transactions
Payroll department’s audit of payroll change notices
Proper distribution of checks to employees
Labor distribution into the payroll files for the classification and accumulation of payroll changes to
the various departments
Hours charged or allocated to federal programs were accurate
Personnel files are properly documented and employee classified as the department and fund
Revenues – Our test of revenues will focus on the key controls to ensure that:
All revenues received or susceptible to accrual have been recorded in the appropriate amount
Revenues are recorded in the proper accounts and funds
Revenues are recorded in the appropriate fiscal period
Revenue transactions comply with policies and procedures
Accruals have been properly captured, recorded and revised in the following year

Regarding federally funded expenditures, the audit tests will be designed to determine whether charges
to federal and state awards:
Were necessary and reasonable for the proper administration of the program
Conformed to any limitations or exclusions in the award
Were given consistent accounting treatment and applied uniformly to both federally-assisted and
other recipient activities
Were net of applicable credits
Did not include costs properly chargeable to other federally-assisted programs
Were properly recorded (i.e., correct amount, date) and supported by source documentation
Were approved in advance, if subject to prior approval
Were incurred in accordance with the competitive purchasing procedures
Were allocated equitably to benefiting activities, including nonfederal activities
Other Than Personnel Services Expenditures – We will test transactions to ensure that they were:
Properly authorized
Monetarily accurate
Properly classified

Examine revenue recognition policies
Ensure proper financial statement disclosure
Capital Assets – Our procedures for the audit of capital assets will be based on how the City manages its
capital assets, rather than based on how the City accounts for those transactions and activities. We will also
ensure that adequate procedures are performed related to the activity and balances in each of those opinion
units with material capital assets-related transactions. Our audit procedures could include:
Review of underlying documentation (such as, statutes and regulations, governing board minutes,
grant contracts, and contracts to lease or sell capital assets) and inquiry of management to determine
any legal and contractual provisions relating to capital assets and related accounts that could have a
direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts.
Analytical review of construction work-in-progress to identify projects that have been completed and
need to be placed in service and depreciated or projects that may have been abandoned and need
to be evaluated for impairment.
Comparison of budgeted and actual capital outlays for the period and investigate significant variances.
City of Vernon

c. Sample size and the extent to which statistical sampling is to be used in this engagement;
We will test transaction cycles using statistical and judgmental sampling methodologies to determine
whether the necessary control procedures as prescribed are followed satisfactorily. For single audit
purposes, we will also use sampling methodologies in our test of the operating effectiveness of controls
over compliance and test of transactions to determine compliance with specific applicable OMB
compliance requirements. The sample size will range from 10 items to 60 items, depending on how we
assess control audit risk and audit detection risk.
Also, if there are any deviations in our sample selection, we will expand the sample size, and if the
additional sample confirms the deviation problem, we will use statistical techniques to extrapolate the
dollar value of the deviation.
d. Extent of use of EDP software in the engagement.
We use electronic workpapers in documenting our audit process and results. All members of our staff are
skilled at auditing in an electronic data processing (EDP) environment and have extensive experience
with software applications. Our audit personnel has a wealth of experience in evaluating complex
computerized accounting systems of governmental agencies. They are proficient at:
Analyzing an organization’s information systems, and
Determine the controls and audit processes required to assure that the information produced is
reliable and that the system and data contained therein are secure.
We also use audit software to generate all fund trial balances, lead sheets, and detail working papers on
laptop computers through either downloads or input of individual fund general ledger information. We use
the same software in generating the fund financial statements and in preparing the CAFR. This process
significantly reduces the amount of time City personnel must spend preparing audit schedules.
e. Type and extent of analytical procedures to be used in the engagement;
Analytical review techniques will be utilized to identify other areas that might require attention. Until the
year-end account balances are finalized, our review will focus on budgets compared to actual/projected
information. We can thus, identify certain sensitive areas to determine whether they are indeed areas
requiring extra attention. We will also focus on unusual fluctuations occurring within individual funds to
identify accounts and areas which merit further investigation.
Based on our understanding of the City's operating environment, through our analytical review and other
planning procedures, we will meet with the City personnel to highlight areas to be emphasized during the
audit. We will concentrate our efforts on the identified areas of audit concern and areas we know are
important to the City Officials. Some of our preliminary audit concerns are elaborated as follows:
Compliance with applicable laws, regulations and reporting requirements
All matters of compliance with GASB statements and interpretations
Receipt of all revenue to which the City is entitled
Purchases are authorized and within budgetary limitations
Encumbrances and liabilities are recorded and charged to proper budgetary accounts
Proper accounting and disclosure of developer agreements and similar commitments
Proper accounting for fixed assets including infrastructure assets
Proper recording of outstanding obligations
For the utilities, we will consider ratios of water pumped/purchased to water sold and utility customer
revenues compared to production costs.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 33
f. Approach to be taken to gain and document an understanding of the City’s internal
control structure;
To gain and document our understanding of the City’s internal control structure, we will review the City’s
policies and procedures, meet with appropriate management personnel to ascertain the actual
operation of policies and procedures and carry out compliance tests to document internal control
strengths and weaknesses. In reviewing controls over EDP, systems emphasis would be placed on
the following:
Determination of the organizational and operational controls over the data being processed including
but not limited to, system development and maintenance controls, hardware controls, and access
controls
Evaluation of the degree of “control consciousness” among personnel
Determination of the potential impact of general control strengths and weaknesses
Consideration of the possibility of management override of controls
g. Approach to be taken in determining laws and regulations that will be subject to audit
test work;
An audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards requires auditors to report on
City’s internal control over financial reporting and on compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. Accordingly, we will test the City’s
compliance with certain regulations such as compliance with budget preparation and budgetary
requirements, investments reporting, and compliance with other contracts such as bond covenants,
and grant agreements.
Single Audit Approach
We will consider the requirements of the new Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles,
and Audit Requirements for Federal Award (Uniform Guidance) when performing all Single Audit test
work. This means we will coordinate the Single Audit testing of major federal programs with the testing
of internal controls and systems in conjunction with the financial statement audit. Each major program
requires a separate opinion on compliance with federal rules and regulations. The scope of our testing
will be sufficient and specific enough to allow opinions on each of the City’s major programs. We will
perform risk assessment procedures, including:
Review of prior years’ reported findings, and
Consideration of the extent of continuing or new personnel assigned to administer each major
federal program.
Our procedures for testing major federal programs will be performed as follows:
Review the inventory of grants and other federal and state assistance
Hold a planning meeting with the accounting managers and grant administrators
Make a preliminary assessment of the condition of the records and controls and determine the
procedures necessary to more fully document the systems
Obtain copies of the grant agreements under which federal financial assistance is provided
Document any program-specific compliance requirements contained in the agreements beyond
those included in the OMB Compliance Supplement
Review reports completed to meet the federal financial reporting requirement
Document our understanding of program requirements, and other laws and regulations
Establish detailed work plans, and audit timetables in conjunction with management
Schedule regular status meetings to monitor the audit process
Test the completeness and accuracy of the schedule of expenditures of federal awards
Examine any external, state and federal audit reports for control weaknesses, compliance
exceptions or questioned costs
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 34
h. Approach to be taken in drawing audit samples for purposes of tests of compliance;
and
Statistical sampling is most often employed in our compliance testing procedures during the Single
Audit. The extent of testing and sampling depends on many factors, including environmental controls,
the complexity of the program, previous audits findings, changes in federal statutes, and the number of
locations at which controls are administered. Our sampling plan will conform to the AICPA’s guidance
for testing compliance. The number of sample sizes will depend on the assessment of controls and the
inherent risk of noncompliance in a major program.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 35
Identification of Potential Audit Problems
Critical Audit Area Background and Audit Considerations
Financial Reporting Background. Governments have unique requirements for financial
reporting—that is, how they present information in their entity-wide
financial statements, fund financial statements, notes to those financial
statements, and other required supplementary information.
Audit Considerations. We will work closely with management to ensure
we understand and evaluate the controls in place over the financial
reporting process. We will perform a materiality calculation to highlight
accounts that are considered material at the financial statement level. We
will perform a major fund determination at the planning and final stage of
the audit to ensure that all funds are reported in compliance with the
reporting standards. We will analyze potential component units to
determine the nature of their reporting in the comprehensive annual
financial report. We will evaluate and review the government’s control
process and entries involved in the conversion from the fund level to the
entity-wide level in compliance with GASB 34. We will advise the City of
potential areas for consideration as to modifications or new disclosures.
Financial Instruments Background. Governments have certain unique requirements that apply
to their financial instruments, including cash; investments such as
structured notes, asset-back securities, and derivative instruments.
Audit Considerations. We will work with management to gain a full
understanding of the controls and procedures in place over the cash and
investments cycle. We will review the City’s investment policy to gain an
understanding of the City’s investment objectives. To ensure all financial
instruments are recorded on the books, we will confirm cash and
investment balances from outside third parties. We will consider the
adequacy of financial statement disclosures and fair value measurements
for conformance with GASB pronouncements and transparency to users
of the financial statements.
Revenues and
Receivables
Background. Governments have a variety of revenue and receivable
sources that play a significant role in their operations.
Audit Considerations. We will work with management to gain a full
understanding of the controls and procedures in place over the revenues
and receivable cycles. We will devise our procedures to ensure that
reported revenues represent amounts relating to the period and pertain to
the government and revenue transactions and events have been recorded
in the correct accounting period and proper accounts. Our tests will
include consideration that the reported receivables represent amounts
uncollected as of the end of the period, that for grants, the related events
have occurred that entitle the City to the related revenue, and receivables
are reported at the proper amounts. We will analytically review revenues
from the budget as well as prior period to identify plausible trends. We will
confirm certain receivables (property and certain other taxes, grants,
shared revenues) and perform a search of unrecorded revenues by
analyzing receipts after year end.
Capital Assets Background. Governments usually acquire general capital assets with
the resources of the general, special revenue, capital projects, and
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 36
Critical Audit Area Background and Audit Considerations
enterprise funds. A government’s budgeting policies usually affect how
the government finances and accounts for general capital asset
acquisitions of different sizes and types.
Audit Considerations. We will gain an understanding of the controls and
procedures in place regarding capital assets. We will review the entity’s
capital asset policy to ensure the controls in place are in compliance with
the prescribed policy. We will consider our tests of construction activity
and capital assets inventory controls to support our evaluation of capital
asset balances. We will devise our procedures to ensure reported capital
expenditures and depreciation, and amortization expense represents
amounts relating to the period and pertain to the government, have been
recorded in the proper accounts and the correct accounting period. We
will evaluate the calculations of any capitalized interest/allowance for
funds used during construction.
Expenditures and
Liabilities
Background. Expenditures and liabilities represent outflows of resources
from the government. Many resource outflows are reported based
primarily on events or transactions that require cash disbursements during
the current period or shortly thereafter; examples are payroll, rent, utilities,
etc. Other resource outflows are reported based primarily on known or
estimated future-period cash disbursements; examples are compensated
absences, and claims and judgments, etc.
Audit Considerations. We will gain an understanding of the controls and
procedures in place relating to the purchasing and cash disbursements
cycle. We will devise our procedures to ensure reported expenditures
represent amounts relating to the period and pertain to the government,
expenditures have been recorded in the proper accounts and correct
accounting period. We will devise our procedures to ensure reported
liabilities represent amounts unpaid as of the end of the period; the
financial statements report all liabilities as of the end of the period and
liabilities are reported at the appropriate amounts. We will agree selected
liabilities to detail ledgers, such as lists of outstanding debt, and
subsequent payments, and we will review subsequent payments to help
identify unrecorded liabilities.
New GASB Statements
Issues are commonly encountered as well in the implementation of new accounting standards. Vasquez
provides training and coordinates the requirements to the client in advance to facilitate implementation.
GASB Statement No. 83, Certain Asset Retirement Obligations – establishes criteria for determining
the timing and pattern of recognition of a liability and a corresponding deferred outflow of resources for
asset retirement obligations (ARO). This Statement requires that recognition occur when the liability is both
incurred and reasonably estimable. Effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2018.
GASB Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities – establishes criteria for identifying fiduciary activities of all
state and local governments. The focus of the criteria generally is on whether a government is controlling
the assets of the fiduciary activity and the beneficiaries with whom a fiduciary relationship exists. Effective
for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.
GASB Statement No. 87, Leases – The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs
of financial statement users by improving accounting and financial reporting for leases by governments.
This Statement increases the usefulness of governments’ financial statements by requiring recognition of
certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and
recognized as inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract.
City of Vernon
Technical Proposal for Financial Audit Services 37
It establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are
financings of the right to use an underlying asset. Under this Statement, a lease is required to recognize a
lease liability and an intangible right-to-use lease asset, and a lessor is required to recognize a lease
receivable and a deferred inflow of resources, thereby enhancing the relevance and consistency of
information about governments’ leasing activities. The requirements of this Statement are effective for
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019.
GASB Statement No. 88, Certain Disclosures Related to Debt, including Debt Borrowing and Direct
Placements – This Statement defines debt for purposes of disclosure in notes to financial statements and
establishes additional financial statement note disclosure requirements related to debt obligations of
governments, including direct borrowings and direct placements, and to provide financial statement users
additional essential information about debt.
This Statement amends Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion
and Analysis-for State and Local Governments, paragraph 119; Statement No. 38, Certain Financial
Statement Note Disclosures, paragraphs 10 and 12; Interpretation No. 1, Demand Bonds Issued by
Statement and Local Governmental Entities, paragraphs 4 and 5; and implementation Guide No. 2015-1,
Question 7.85.7.
GASB Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred before the End of a Construction
Period – This Statement establishes accounting requirements for interest cost incurred before the end of
a construction period. This Statement supersedes Statement No. 37, Basic Financial Statements – and
Management’s Discussion and Analysis-for State and Local Governments: Omnibus, paragraph 6;
Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in November
30, 1989 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements, paragraphs 5-22 and footnotes 1-7 and 226; and
Implementation Guide No. 2015-1, Questions ;7, 10.3-7, 10.7 and Z.51.11. This Statement amends
Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – For State
and Local Governments, paragraph 18, and Statement 62, paragraphs 3 and 485. The requirements of this
Statement are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Earlier application is encouraged.
GASB Statement No. 90, Majority Equity Interests – The requirements of this Statement will improve
financial reporting by providing users of financial statements with essential information related to a
presentation of majority equity interests in legally separate organizations that previously were reported
inconsistently. Also, requiring reporting of information about component units if the government acquires a
100 percent equity interest provides information about the cost of services to be provided by the component
unit about the consideration provided to acquire the component unit.

The Objective and Scope of the Audit of the Financial Statements
You have requested that we audit the City of Vernon’s (the “City”) governmental activities, business-type
activities, each major fund and aggregate remaining fund information as of and for the year ending June
30, 2019, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements.
Accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America provide for certain required
supplementary information (RSI), such as Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), to supplement
the City’s basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements,
is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of
financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or
historical context. As part of our engagement, we will apply certain limited procedures to the City’s RSI in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. These limited
procedures will consist of inquiries of management regarding the methods of preparing the information and
comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial
statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We will
not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not
provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. The following RSI is
required by generally accepted accounting principles and will be subjected to certain limited procedures,
but will not be audited:
1. Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A)
2. Budgetary Comparison Schedules
3. Schedule of Changes in the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios
4. Schedule of Pension Contributions
5. Schedules of Changes in Net OPEB Liability and Related Ratios
6. Schedule of OPEB Plan Contributions
Also, the following supplementary information accompanying the financial statements will be subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures,
including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other
records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, and we will provide an opinion
on it in relation to the financial statements as a whole, in a report combined with our auditors’ report on the
financial statements:
1) Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019
Page 2
We are pleased to confirm our acceptance and our understanding of this audit engagement by means of
this letter. Our audit will be conducted with the objective of our expressing an opinion on the financial
statements.
We will also perform the audit of the City as of June 30, 2019, so as to satisfy the audit requirements
imposed by the Single Audit Act and Subpart F of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200,
Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
(Uniform Guidance).
The Responsibilities of the Auditor
We will conduct our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAS); Government Auditing Standards (GAS) issued by the Comptroller General of the United
States; the provisions of the Single Audit Act, Subpart F of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal
Awards (Uniform Guidance), and the U.S. Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) Compliance
Supplement. Those standards, regulations and supplements, or guides require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to
fraud or error. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the
reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, together with the inherent limitations of internal control, an
unavoidable risk that some material misstatements may not be detected exists, even though the audit is
properly planned and performed in accordance with GAAS. Also, an audit is not designed to detect errors
or fraud that are immaterial to the financial statements. The determination of abuse is subjective; therefore,
GAS does not expect us to provide reasonable assurance of detecting abuse.
In making our risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the City’s preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal
control. However, we will communicate to you in writing concerning any significant deficiencies or material
weaknesses in internal control relevant to the audit of the financial statements that we have identified during
the audit.
We will also communicate to the governing board (a) any fraud involving senior management and fraud
(whether caused by senior management or other employees) that causes a material misstatement of the
financial statements that becomes known to us during the audit, and (b) any instances of noncompliance
with laws and regulations that we become aware of during the audit (unless they are clearly
inconsequential).
The funds that you have told us are maintained by the City and that are to be included as part of our audit
will be provided to us before we begin the audit fieldwork.
There will be no component units whose financial statements will be omitted from the basic financial
statements.
The federal financial assistance programs and awards that you have told us that the City participates in and
that are to be included as part of the single audit will be provided to us before we begin the audit fieldwork.
We anticipate that there will be one (1) major program in this year’s audit.
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019
Page 3
We are responsible for the compliance audit of major programs under the Uniform guidance, including the
determination of major programs, the consideration of internal control over compliance, and reporting
responsibilities.
Our reports on internal control will include any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in controls
of which we become aware as a result of obtaining an understanding of internal control and performing
tests of internal control consistent with requirements of the standards and regulations identified above. Our
reports on compliance matters will address material errors, fraud, abuse, violations of compliance
obligations, and other responsibilities imposed by state and federal statutes and regulations or assumed by
contracts, and any state or federal grant, entitlement, or loan program questioned costs of which we become
aware, consistent with requirements of the standards and regulations identified above.
The Responsibilities of Management and Identification of the Applicable Financial Reporting
Framework
Our audit will be conducted on the basis that management and when appropriate, those charged with
governance, acknowledge and understand that they have responsibility:
1. For the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America;
2. To evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued or available to be
issued, and to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated in the financial
statements. Management also agrees that it will not conclude on subsequent events earlier than the
date of the management representation letter referred to below;
3. For the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error;
4. For establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for informing us
of all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of such controls of
which it has knowledge;
5. For report distribution; and
6. To provide us with:
a. Access to all information of which management is aware that is relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements such as records, documentation, and other matters;
b. Additional information that we may request from management for the purpose of the audit;
c. Unrestricted access to persons within the City from whom we determine it necessary to obtain audit
evidence;
As part of our audit process, we will request from management and when appropriate, those charged with
governance, written confirmation concerning representations made to us in connection with the audit
including among other items:
1. That management has fulfilled their responsibilities as set out in terms of this letter; and
2. That they believe the effects of any uncorrected misstatements aggregated by us during the current
engagement and pertaining to the latest period presented are immaterial, both individually and in the
aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Management is responsible for identifying and ensuring that the City complies with the laws and regulations
applicable to its activities, and for informing us about all known material violations of such laws or
regulations. In addition, management is responsible for the design and implementation of programs and
controls to prevent and detect fraud or abuse, and for informing us about all known or suspected fraud or
abuse affecting the City involving management, employees who have significant roles in internal control,
and others where the fraud or abuse could have a material effect on the financial statements or compliance.
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019
Page 4
Management is also responsible for informing us of its knowledge of any allegations of fraud or abuse or
suspected fraud or abuse affecting the City received in communications from employees, former
employees, analysts, regulators, or others.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the required supplementary information (RSI) and
supplementary information presented in relation to the financial statements as a whole in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management agrees to include
the auditors’ report on the RSI and supplementary information in any document that contains the
supplementary information and indicates that the auditor has reported on such RSI and supplementary
information. Management also agrees to present the RSI and the supplementary information with the
audited financial statements or, if the RSI and the supplementary information will not be presented with the
audited financial statements, to make the audited financial statements readily available to the intended
users of the RSI and the supplementary information no later than the date of issuance of the supplementary
information and the auditors’ report thereon.
Because the audit will be performed in accordance with the Single Audit Act and the Uniform Guidance,
management is responsible for (a) identifying all federal awards received and expended; (b) preparing the
schedule of expenditures of federal awards (including notes and noncash assistance received) in
accordance with Uniform Guidance requirements; (c) internal control over compliance; (d) compliance with
federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of federal awards; (e) making us aware of
significant vendor relationships where the vendor is responsible for program compliance; (f) following up
and taking corrective action on audit findings; including the preparation of a summary schedule of prior
audit findings and a corrective action plan; and (g) submitting the reporting package and data collection
form.
The City Council is responsible for informing us of its views about the risks of fraud or abuse within the City,
and its knowledge of any fraud or abuse or suspected fraud or abuse affecting the City.
Our association with an official statement is a matter for which separate arrangements will be necessary.
The City agrees to provide us with printer's proofs or masters of such offering documents for our review
and approval before printing and with a copy of the final reproduced material for our approval before it is
distributed. In the event our auditor/client relationship has been terminated when the City seeks such
consent, we will be under no obligation to grant such consent or approval.
The City agrees that it will not associate us with any public or private securities offering without first obtaining
our consent. Therefore, the City agrees to contact us before it includes our reports or otherwise makes
reference to us, in any public or private securities offering.
Because Vasquez & Company LLP (Vasquez) will rely on the City and its management to discharge the
foregoing responsibilities, the City holds harmless and releases Vasquez and its partners and employees
from all claims, liabilities, losses, and costs arising in circumstances where there has been a knowing
misrepresentation by a member of the City’s management that has caused, in any respect, Vasquez’ breach
of contract or negligence. This provision shall survive the termination of this arrangement for services.
Records and Assistance
If circumstances arise relating to the condition of the City’s records, the availability of appropriate audit
evidence, or indications of a significant risk of material misstatement of the financial statements because
of error, fraudulent financial reporting, or misappropriation of assets, which, in our professional judgment,
prevent us from completing the audit or forming an opinion, we retain the unilateral right to take any course
of action permitted by professional standards, including declining to express an opinion, issue a report, or
withdrawing from the engagement.
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019
Page 5
During the course of our engagement, we may accumulate records containing data that should be reflected
in the City’s books and records. The City will determine that all such data, if necessary, will be so reflected.
Accordingly, the City will not expect us to maintain copies of such records in our possession.
The assistance to be supplied by City personnel, including the preparation of schedules and analyses of
accounts, has been discussed and will be coordinated with the Finance Director. The timely and accurate
completion of this work is an essential condition to our completion of the audit and issuance of our audit
report.
In connection with our audit, you have requested us to perform certain non-audit services necessary for the
preparation of the financial statements, including assistance in the preparation and assembly of the
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. The GAS independence standards require that the auditor
maintain independence so that opinions, findings, conclusions, judgments, and recommendations will be
impartial and viewed as impartial by reasonable and informed third parties. Before we agree to provide a
non-audit service to the City, we determine whether providing such a service would create a significant
threat to our independence for GAS audit purposes, either by itself or in aggregate with other non-audit
services provided. A critical component of our determination is consideration of management’s ability to
effectively oversee the non-audit service to be performed. The City has agreed that the Finance Director
possesses suitable skill, knowledge, or experience and that the individual understands the services to be
performed sufficiently to oversee them. Accordingly, the management of the City agrees to the following:
1. The City has designated the Finance Director, as a senior member of management, who possesses
suitable skill, knowledge, and experience to oversee the services.
2. The Finance Director will assume all management responsibilities for subject matter and scope of
the preparation and assembly of the Comprehensive Annual Financial report.
3. The City will evaluate the adequacy and results of the services performed.
4. The City accepts responsibility for the results and ultimate use of the services.
GAS further requires we establish an understanding with the management and those charged with
governance of the City of the objectives of the non-audit service, the services to be performed, the City's
acceptance of its responsibilities, the auditor’s responsibilities, and any limitations of the non-audit service.
We believe this letter documents that understanding.

prior to any such discussions so that we can implement appropriate safeguards to maintain our
independence.
Dispute Resolution
The City and Vasquez agree that no claim or demand for arbitration arising out of services rendered pursuant
to this Agreement shall be filed more than two years after the date of the audit report issued by Vasquez or
the date of this arrangement letter if no report has been issued. If any dispute, controversy, or claim arises
out of, relates to, or results from the performance or breach of this Agreement, excluding claims for non-
monetary or equitable relief (collectively, the “Dispute”), either party may, upon written notice to the other
party, request non-binding mediation.
A recipient party of such notice may waive its option to resolve such Dispute by non-binding mediation by
providing written notice to the party requesting mediation and then such parties hereto shall resolve such
Dispute by binding arbitration as described below. Such mediation shall be assisted by a neutral mediator
acceptable to both parties and shall require the commercially reasonable efforts of the parties to discuss with
each other in good faith their respective positions and different interests to finally resolve such Dispute. If the
parties are unable to agree on a mediator within twenty (20) days from delivery of the written notice, either
party may invoke the mediation service of the JAMS Mediation, Arbitration and ADR Services.
Each party may disclose any facts to the other party or to the mediator that it, in good faith, considers
reasonably necessary to resolve the Dispute. However, all such disclosures shall be deemed in furtherance
of settlement efforts and shall not be admissible in any subsequent proceeding against the disclosing
party. Except as agreed to in writing by both parties, the mediator shall keep confidential all information
disclosed during mediation.
The mediator shall not act as a witness for either party in any subsequent proceeding between the parties.
Unless waived, such mediation shall conclude after the parties have engaged in good faith settlement
negotiations, but nonetheless are unable to resolve the Dispute through the mediation process. The
attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by each party in such mediation shall be borne solely by such party, except
that the fees and expenses of the mediator, if any, shall be borne equally by the parties.
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019

Any Dispute not resolved first by mediation between the parties (or if the mediation process is waived as
provided herein) shall be decided by binding arbitration. The arbitration proceeding shall take place in the
jurisdiction in which the Vasquez office providing the relevant services exists, unless the parties agree in
writing to a different locale. The arbitration shall be governed by the provisions of the laws of the state in
which the arbitration is to take place (except if there is no applicable state law providing for such arbitration,
then the Federal Arbitration Act shall apply) and the substantive law of such state shall be applied without
reference to conflicts of law rules. In any arbitration instituted hereunder, the proceedings shall proceed in
accordance with the then current JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures , except that the
Arbitration Panel (as defined below) shall permit discovery that is consistent with the scope of discovery
typically permitted by the California Rules of Civil Procedure and/or is otherwise customary in light of the
complexity of the Dispute and the amount in controversy. Any Dispute regarding discovery, or the relevance
or scope thereof, shall be determined by the Arbitration Panel (as defined below).
The arbitration shall be conducted before one neutral arbitrator, unless all parties agree otherwise. In cases
involving more than one Arbitrator, the Parties shall agree on, or, in the absence of agreement, JAMS shall
designate, the Chairperson of the Arbitration Panel., Where the parties have agreed that each party is to name
one Arbitrator, the Arbitrators so named shall be neutral and independent of the appointing party, unless the
parties have agreed that they shall be non-neutral (the “Arbitration Panel”). The Arbitration Panel shall have
no authority to award non-monetary or equitable relief, but nothing herein shall be construed as a prohibition
against a party from pursuing non-monetary or equitable relief in a state or federal court. The parties also
waive the right to punitive damages and the arbitrators shall have no authority to award such damages or any
other damages that are not strictly compensatory in nature. In rendering their award, the Arbitration Panel
shall issue in writing findings of fact and conclusions of law. The Arbitration Panel shall not have authority to
grant an award that is not supported by substantial evidence or that is based on an error of law, and such
absence of substantial evidence or such error of law may be reviewed on appeal to vacate an award based
on the standard of review otherwise applicable in the California Appellate Court responsible for the jurisdiction
in which the arbitration is venued, and without regard to any heightened standard of review otherwise
applicable to an arbitration decision rendered by the JAMS. The confidentiality provisions applicable to
mediation shall also apply to arbitration. The award issued by the Arbitration Panel may be confirmed in a
judgment by any state court of competent jurisdiction. No payment of any award or posting of any bond of
any kind whatsoever is required to be made or posted until such Dispute is finally determined.
In no event shall a demand for arbitration be made after the date on which the initiation of the legal or
equitable proceeding on the same Dispute would be barred by the terms of this Agreement. For the
purposes of applying the terms of this Agreement, receipt of a written demand for arbitration by the JAMS
shall be deemed the initiation of the legal or equitable proceeding based on such Dispute.
The City waives any claim for punitive damages. Vasquez’ liability for all claims, damages and costs of the
City arising from this engagement is limited to the amount of fees paid by the City to Vasquez for the
services rendered under this arrangement letter.
Reporting
We will issue a written report upon completion of our audit of the City's financial statements. Our report will
be addressed to the governing board of the City. We cannot provide assurance that an unmodified opinion
will be expressed. Circumstances may arise in which it is necessary for us to modify our opinion, add an
emphasis-of-matter or other-matter paragraph(s), or withdraw from the engagement.
In addition to our report on the City's financial statements, we will also issue the following types of reports:
1. A report on the fairness of the presentation of the City's schedule of expenditures of federal awards for
the year ending June 30, 2019.
2. Reports on internal control related to the financial statements and major programs. These reports will
describe the scope of testing of internal control and the results of our tests of internal controls.
City of Vernon
June 18, 2019
Page 9
3. Reports on compliance with laws, regulations, and the provisions of contracts or grant agreements. We
will report on any noncompliance which could have a material effect on the financial statements and
any noncompliance which could have a material effect, as defined by Single Audit Act and Subpart F
of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements,
Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, on each major program.
4. A schedule of findings and questioned costs.
5. Appropriation Limit Worksheet. The responsibility we are to take for the materials included in this report
will be the same as that we assume for other supplementary information accompanying the financial
statements.
We will also complete the appropriate sections of and sign the Data Collection Form that summarizes our
audit findings.
Fees and Costs
Cristy Canieda is the engagement partner and is responsible for supervising the engagement and for
signing the audit report.
Our fees for the audit services described above are based upon the value of the services performed and
the time required by the individuals assigned to the engagement, plus direct expenses. Our fee estimate
and completion of our work is based upon the following criteria:
a. Anticipated cooperation from City personnel.
b. Timely responses to our inquiries.
c. Timely completion and delivery of client assistance requests.
d. Timely communication of all significant accounting and financial reporting matters.
e. The assumption that unexpected circumstances (Exhibit I) will not be encountered during
the engagement.
f. No instances of fraud that will require additional procedures.
If any of the aforementioned criteria are not met, then fees may increase. If we find that additional time is
likely to be necessary, we will attempt to discuss it with the City’s management and Audit Committee and
arrive at a new fee estimate before we incur additional time or costs.
We anticipate the fee to be $110,000. The maximum number of report copies we will provide you is ten
(10). Any copies you will request in excess of this maximum number will be an additional cost to you. As
an alternative, we can provide you an electronic copy (PDF) of the report at no cost.
Our invoices for these fees will be rendered in accordance with the terms set forth in our contract and are
payable on presentation. In accordance with Vasquez policies, work may be suspended if your account
becomes 30 days or more overdue and will not be resumed until your account is paid in full. If we elect to
terminate our services for nonpayment, our engagement will be deemed to have been completed upon
written notice of termination, even if we have not issued a report. You will be obliged to compensate
us for all time expended and to reimburse us for all out-of-pocket expenditures through the date of
termination. Invoices aged over 30 days may be subject to a 10% late charge.
Our fees are based on the determination of one (1) major program subject to the Single Audit Act and
Subpart F of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Should
we determine that additional programs are required for audit, we will discuss this with you in advance of
performing the additional work.

When an engagement has been suspended at the request of management or those charged with
governance and work on that engagement has not recommenced within 120 days of the request to suspend
our work, Vasquez may, at its sole discretion, terminate this arrangement letter without further obligation to
the City. Resumption of audit work following termination may be subject to our client acceptance procedures
and, if resumed, will necessitate additional procedures not contemplated in this arrangement letter.
Accordingly, the scope, timing and fee arrangement discussed in this arrangement letter will no longer
apply. In order for Vasquez to recommence work, a new arrangement letter would need to be mutually
agreed upon and executed.
Our professional standards require that we perform certain additional procedures, on current and previous
years’ engagements, whenever a partner or professional employee leaves Vasquez and is subsequently
employed by or associated with a client in a key position. Accordingly, the City agrees it will compensate
Vasquez for any additional costs incurred as a result of the City’s employment of a partner or professional
employee of Vasquez.
Review of audit documentation by a successor auditor or as part of due diligence will be agreed to, accounted
for and billed separately.
Other Services
We are always available to meet with you and/or other executives at various times throughout the year to
discuss current business, operations, accounting, and auditing matters affecting the City. Whenever you feel
such meetings are desirable, please let us know. We are also prepared to provide services to assist you in
any of these areas.
You may request that we perform additional services not addressed in this engagement letter. If this occurs,
we will communicate with you the scope of the additional services and estimated fees. We also may issue
a separate engagement letter covering the additional services. In the absence of any other written
communication from us documenting such additional services, our services will continue to be governed by
the terms of this engagement letter.
Electronic Signatures and Counterparts
Each party hereto agrees that any electronic signature of a party to this agreement or any electronic
signature to a document contemplated hereby (including any representation letter) is intended to
authenticate such writing and shall be as valid, and have the same force and effect, as a manual signature.
Any such electronically signed document shall be deemed (i) to be "written" or "in writing," (ii) to have been
signed and (iii) to constitute a record established and maintained in the ordinary course of business and an
original written record when printed from electronic files. Each party hereto also agrees that electronic
delivery of a signature to any such document (via email or otherwise) shall be as effective as manual
delivery of a manual signature. For purposes hereof, “electronic signature” includes, but is not limited to, (i)
a scanned copy (as a "pdf" (portable document format) or other replicating image) of a manual ink signature,
(ii) an electronic copy of a traditional signature affixed to a document, (iii) a signature incorporated into a
document utilizing touchscreen capabilities or (iv) a digital signature. This agreement may be executed in
one or more counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original instrument, but all of which shall
be considered one and the same agreement. Paper copies or "printouts,”of such documents if introduced
as evidence in any judicial, arbitral, mediation or administrative proceeding, will be admissible as between
the parties to the same extent and under the same conditions as other original business records created
and maintained in documentary form. Neither party shall contest the admissibility of true and accurate
copies of electronically signed documents on the basis of the best evidence rule or as not satisfying the
business records exception to the hearsay rule.
If any term or provision of this arrangement letter is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, such term
or provision will be deemed stricken and all other terms and provisions will remain in full force and effect.

EXHIBIT I – Examples of Unexpected Circumstances
Incorrect accounting applications or errors in your records
We generally form our fee estimates on the expectations that your accounting records are in good order so
that our work can be completed based upon our normal testing and other procedures. However, should
we find numerous errors, incomplete records or disorganized bookkeeping methods, we will have to do
additional work to determine that the necessary corrections have been made and properly reflected in the
financial statements.
Lack of audit facilitation or timely preparation
To minimize your costs, we plan the means by which your personnel can facilitate the audit (e.g. what
schedules they will prepare, how to prepare them, the supporting documents that need to be provided,
etc.). We also discuss matters such as availability of your key personnel, deadlines and working conditions.
Indeed, the information concerning these matters that you furnish to us is a key element in our fee quotation.
Therefore, if your personnel are unable, for whatever reason, to provide these materials on a timely basis,
it may substantially increase the work we must do to complete the engagement within the established
deadlines. Moreover, in some circumstances this may require a staff withdrawal, as discussed in the
following paragraph.
Staff withdrawal
A staff withdrawal consists of our removing one or all staff because the condition of your records or the
inability of your personnel to provide agreed upon materials within the established timetable makes it
impossible for us to perform our work in a timely, efficient manner, as established by our engagement plan.
Sometimes, a complete staff withdrawal is necessary to permit an orderly audit approach. A staff withdrawal
is not necessarily an adverse reflection on your personnel. However, it involves additional costs, as we
must reschedule our personnel; incur additional start-up costs, etc., to prevent total engagement costs from
increasing significantly.
Unforeseen events
Even though we communicate frequently with clients and plan our engagement with management and their
staff, unforeseen events can occur. Examples include accounting problems, litigation, changes in your
business or business environment, contractual or other difficulties with suppliers, third-party service
providers, or customers, etc. When those circumstances occur, additional time is needed to provide you
with assistance and complete our engagement in accordance with professional standards.
Again, we emphasize that we strive to give you optimum value for our professional services. Fee quotations
are provided based upon the facts and circumstances that you describe to us. However, unlike the sale of
products, the performance of professional services is affected by many variables, such as the foregoing,
which may cause fee estimates to change.
We want you to receive the maximum value for our professional services and to perceive that our fees are
reasonable and fair. We, therefore, commit to inform you in advance of any need to revisit fee estimates.

Agenda Item No. COV-327-2019
Submitted by: Masami Higa
Submitting Department: Finance/ Treasury
Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Services Agreement with Epic Land Solutions, Inc. for Infrastructure Valuation In Accordance with GASB 34 and 51
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed action, is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA),
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. Even if such
were considered a project, it would be exempt from CEQA review in accordance with Section 15061(b)(3), the
general rule is that CEQA only applies to activities that may have a significant effect on the environment; and
B. Find that the best interests of the City are served by a direct award of the contract without a competitive selection
process, pursuant to Section 2.17.12 (B) (2) of the Vernon Municipal Code; and
C. Approve the agreement with Epic Land Solutions, Inc. ("Epic"), in substantially the same form as submitted herewith,
with a term of one year ending September 16, 2020 at a cost not to exceed $140,000; and
D. Authorize the City Administrator to execute the agreement with Epic to complete Phase 2 of the infrastructure
valuation of Vernon Public Utilities assets in accordance with GASB 34 and 51.
Background:
Background
In May 2016, the City issued a Request for Proposal (“RFP”) for Infrastructure Valuation in Accordance with GASB
34 and 51. A thorough solicitation process was conducted. This included reaching out to twenty valuation firms and
placement of the RFP on the City’s website for other interested firms to participate. A total of three proposal responses
were received. The three responses were from Rahban CPA & Consulting, Inc., Epic Land Solutions, Inc., and CBIZ
Valuation Group. All firms were evaluated based on a competitive selection process, in which the evaluation of
proposals was not strictly based upon pricing. Technical merit, firm expertise, and capacity were given significant
consideration in the selection process. There were four selection criteria that were evaluated consisting of qualifications,
cost, responsiveness, and professional references. Epic Land Solutions (Hereinafter “EPIC”) was the selected firm to
perform the valuation. The initial cost of this effort was $175,000.
Amendment No. 1
On January 31, 2018, Amendment No. 1 was approved by the City Administrator. This allowed EPIC’S completion
of the Phase 1 (Government Assets) and the commencement of Phase 2 (business-type assets). The period covered by
Amendment No. 1 was September 20, 2017 through September 19, 2018. The only change to the agreement was a
time extension time to continue the project. The Phase 1 valuation of General Fund assets was issued on December 28,
2017. The Phase 1 report identified an additional $133.8 million in Governmental fixed assets not previously
recognized. The additions were reviewed and evaluated by the CPA Firm, Vasquez & Company, and found to be in
compliance with Government Accounting Standards and were recorded on the City’s books.
Under Amendment No. 1 the business-type assets, consisting of Electric, Gas, Water and Fiber Optics infrastructure
assets, were going through the valuation process. However, at the conclusion of the Amendment No. 1, it was jointly
recognized that the work was not completed. EPIC and the City jointly reviewed the status and agreed that additional
time and funding was necessary. This was largely due to incomplete GIS data coupled with the loss of key Vernon
Public Utilities ("VPU") personnel which generated additional work for the remaining VPU employees and rework for
EPIC to address the project scope.
Amendment No. 2
Amendment No. 2, dated September 4, 2018, was for EPIC to complete the Phase 2 business-type assets valuation
report by December 31, 2018, for an additional $80,000, bringing the total to $243,925. However, due to the lack of
information available at the time for water rights, EPIC completed the Phase 2 business-type asset valuation report,
excluding the valuation of water rights, on February 25, 2019. EPIC requested VPU’s and City’s independent
auditor’s review of the report prior to stamping it final. However, the loss of key VPU employees and insufficient GIS
data generated additional work for the remaining VPUs employees and additional rework for EPIC.
There was no Amendment No. 3 to extend the deadline beyond December 31, 2018 to February 25, 2019, the date
that the Phase 2 report became available for review. It should be understood that the ability to review the report was
adversely impacted by the departure of certain VPU personnel with institutional knowledge of the City's GIS System,
Water Rights, Electric, Gas, and Fiber Optics assets.
Internal Work Effort Is Ongoing
Work has been continuing to address utility infrastructure assets including the following:
•VPU has now dedicated resources assigned
•VPU is continuing to review and populate additional business-type asset data with assistance of two outside
sources and one internal source
o Petrelli Electric was assigned the task of proposing proper asset groupings and classifications in order to align
the GIS data with future capital work orders
o An outside programmer has been retained to study and reconcile some of the GIS data against existing internal
records
o Finance continues to provide accounting and auditing guidance, communication between City’s independent
auditor, and aids as resource as needed
In essence, the asset grouping and classification is currently being changed for the data to be reviewable by the newly
assigned VPU staff. Once VPU completes its review, EPIC will revalue the asset data and redraft its Phase 2 report
for VPU and City’s independent auditor to review. The request for the proposed new agreement for $140,000 is for
EPIC to revalue those assets and to add the valuation of General Fund’s Water Rights. $50,000 of the $140,000 is for
the valuation of water rights which the City excluded in its Phase 1 report. The remaining $90,000 consists of two
tasks. 1) $75,000 for the update of the Electric, Water, Gas, and Fiber Optics Infrastructure Valuation, and 2) $15,000
for IT support.
The City Attorney’s Office was consulted for advice/recommendation from the City on feasibility of amending the
original contract that expired in December 2018, and extending it with a retroactive effective date of December 2018,
or to enter into a new agreement. Based upon the elapsed time involved, it was recommended that a new contract be
entered into.
The benefit over cost to the City is expected to be $100,000,000 of additional infrastructure assets being added to the
City’s books for $140,000. It is in the public best interest to properly identify what the City owns. Because this is a
professional service contract, it is recommended that the City Council find that this agreement is exempt from
competitive bidding under Vernon Code Article IV Section 2.17.12(A)(10) and exempt from competitive selection
under Vernon Code Article IV Section 2.17.12(B)(2).
In discussions with EPIC and VPU staff personnel, it is anticipated that the work will be finalized on or before
December 2019. Subsequently, the City’s independent auditor, Vasquez and Company, will review the report prior to
the City recording the additional infrastructure assets on VPUs books.
Fiscal Impact:
The approval of the $140,000 will allow the completion of the Phase 2 infrastructure asset valuation covering VPU
assets. The requested funding has been budgeted for in the 2019-20 fiscal budget.

the services, the City will pay Contractor in accordance with the payment schedule set forth in
Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
5.2 Contractor's grand total compensation for the entire term of this Contract,
shall not exceed $140,000.00 without the prior authorization of the City, as appropriate, and
written amendment of this Contract.

out of or in connection with the work, operations or activities of Contractor, its agents,
employees, subcontractors, or invitees, provided for herein, or arising from the acts or
omissions of Contractor hereunder, or arising from Contractor’s performance of or failure to
perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, except to the extent such
claims or liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of City, its officers,
elected officials, agents or employees.
10.0 INSURANCE. Contractor shall, at its own expense, procure and maintain

Contract, including any extensions thereto. The policies shall state that they afford primary

each subcontractor to similarly maintain workers’ compensation insurance in accordance with
the laws for California for all of the subcontractor’s employees. Compliance is accomplished in
one of the following manners:
(1) Provide copy of permissive self-insurance certificate approved by the
State of California; or
(2) Secure and maintain in force a policy of workers' compensation insurance
with statutory limits and Employer's Liability Insurance with a minimal limit
of $1,000,000 per accident. The policy shall be endorsed to waive all
rights of subrogation against City, its directors, commissioners, officers,
employees, and volunteers for losses arising from performance of this
Contract; or
(3) Provide a "waiver" form certifying that no employees subject to the Labor
Code's Workers' Compensation provision will be used in performance of
this Contract.
vi. Each insurance policy included in this clause shall be endorsed to state that
coverage shall not be cancelled except after thirty (30) days' prior written notice to City.
vii. Insurance shall be placed with insurers with a Best's rating of no less than A-VIII.
viii. Prior to commencement of performance, Contractor shall furnish City with a
certificate of insurance for each policy. Each certificate is to be signed by a person authorized
by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. The certificate(s) must be in a form approved by
City. City may require complete, certified copies of any or all policies at any time.
ix. Failure to maintain required insurance at all times shall constitute a default and
material breach. In such event, Contractor shall immediately notify City and cease all
performance under this Contract until further directed by the City. In the absence of satisfactory
8
insurance coverage, City may, at its option: (a) procure insurance with collection rights for
premiums, attorney's fees and costs against Contractor by way of set-off or recoupment from
sums due to Contractor, at City's option; (b) immediately terminate this Contract and seek
damages from the Contract resulting from said breach; or (c) self-insure the risk, with all
damages and costs incurred, by judgment, settlement or otherwise, including attorney's fees
and costs, being collectible from Contractor, by way of set-off or recoupment from any sums due
to Contractor.
11.0 GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

required by this Contract, or any applicable statute, rule, or regulation. Further, Contractor has
and shall retain the right to exercise full control over the employment, direction, compensation
and discharge of all persons employed by Contractor in the performance of the services
hereunder. City assumes no liability for Contractor’s actions and performance, nor assumes
responsibility for taxes, bonds, payments, or other commitments, implied or explicit, by or for
Contractor. Contractor shall be solely responsible for, and shall indemnify, defend and save
City harmless from all matters relating to the payment of its employees, subcontractors and
independent contractors, including compliance with social security, withholding and all other
wages, salaries, benefits, taxes, exactions, and regulations of any nature whatsoever.
11.1.2 Contractor acknowledges that Contractor and any subcontractors,
agents or employees employed by Contractor shall not, under any circumstances, be
considered employees of the City, and that they shall not be entitled to any of the benefits or
rights afforded employees of City, including, but not limited to, sick leave, vacation leave,
holiday pay, Public Employees Retirement System benefits, or health, life, dental, long-term
disability or workers' compensation insurance benefits.

11.3 OWNERSHIP OF WORK. All documents and materials furnished by the
City to Contractor shall remain the property of the City and shall be returned to the City upon
termination of this Agreement. All reports, drawings, plans, specifications, computer tapes,
floppy disks and printouts, studies, memoranda, computation sheets, and other documents
prepared by Contractor in furtherance of the work shall be the sole property of City and shall be
delivered to City whenever requested at no additional cost to the City. Contractor shall keep
such documents and materials on file and available for audit by the City for at least three (3)
years after completion or earlier termination of this Contract. Contractor may make duplicate
copies of such materials and documents for its own files or for such other purposes as may be
authorized in writing by the City.
11.4 CORRECTION OF WORK. Contractor shall promptly correct any
defective, inaccurate or incomplete tasks, deliverables, goods, services and other work, without
additional cost to the City. The performance or acceptance of services furnished by Contractor
shall not relieve the Contractor from the obligation to correct subsequently discovered defects,
inaccuracy, or incompleteness.

work and results under this Agreement. Contractor, when requested, shall furnish clarification
and/or explanation as may be required by the City, regarding any services rendered under this

the matter to the sole satisfaction of City and to participate in any meeting required with regard
to the correction.
11.6 WAIVER. The City's waiver of any term, condition, breach, or default of
10
this Contract shall not be considered to be a waiver of any other term, condition, default or
breach, nor of a subsequent breach of the one waived. The delay or failure of either party at any
time to require performance or compliance by the other of any of its obligations or agreements
shall in no way be deemed a waiver of those rights to require such performance or compliance.
No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a
duly authorized representative of the party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought.

or any rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the City and approval by the City
Attorney, which may be withheld in the City's sole discretion. Any unauthorized assignment or
transfer shall be null and void and shall constitute a material breach by the Contractor of its
obligations under this Contract. No assignment shall release the original parties from their
obligations or otherwise constitute a novation.
11.9 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. Contractor shall comply with all Federal,
State, County and City laws, ordinances, rules and regulations, which are, as amended from
time to time, incorporated herein and applicable to the performance hereof, including but without
limitation, the Vernon Living Wage Ordinance. Violation of any law material to performance of

Further, if the Contractor performs any work knowing it to be contrary to such laws, rules, and
regulations Contractor shall be solely responsible for all costs arising therefrom.
11.10 ATTORNEY'S FEES. If any action at law or in equity is brought to
enforce or interpret the terms of this Contract, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable

enter into and perform its obligations under this Contract, and its execution of this Contract has

City Council Agenda Item Report
Agenda Item No. COV-397-2019
Submitted by: Anthony Zarate
Submitting Department: Public Works
Meeting Date: September 17, 2019
SUBJECT
Approval of Amendment No. 1 to a Contract with Interwest Consulting Group for On-Call Building Plan Check and
Inspection Services
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed amendment to the Services Agreement with Interwest Consulting Group, 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 is not a “project’ as defined by CEQA
Guidelines, Section 15378; and
B. Approve Amendment No. 1 to Contract No. CS-0792 for On-Call Building Plan Check and Inspections Services
with Interwest Consulting Group (“Interwest”), in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, extending the
agreement for an additional three (3) months, with no increase to the not-to-exceed cost of $195,000; and
C. Authorize the City Administrator to execute Amendment No. 1 with Interwest to provide additional time to secure a
new services agreement, in accordance with the City’s competitive bidding process.
Background:
The Building Division of the Public Works Department is responsible for ensuring that all new construction and their
respective plans be in compliance with the latest building code and regulations adopted by the City. On September 20,
2016, the City of Vernon entered into a three-year services agreement with Interwest, (Contract No. CS-0792), to
provide on-call building plan check and inspection services. This agreement is set to expire on September 19, 2019;
however, City staff relies on the knowledge and expertise of Interwest to ensure compliance with regulations such as
State mandated accessibility requirements which must be approved by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) and
structural plan checks which must be approved by a licensed structural engineer.
At the August 20, 2019 City Council meeting, the City Council adopted the FY2019-2020 budget with certain
modifications to the Building Division's organizational structure. With the modifications implemented, the Building
Division has three (3) full-time employees performing plan review and inspection services of Building (architectural),
Electrical, Plumbing and Mechanical plans. Due to the nature of some projects and to be in compliance with the building
code enforced by the City, additional plan review and approval is required when structural plan checking and CASp
review and inspection are required, prior to issuing a permit. As stated above, staff does not have the knowledge or
certification required to perform these tasks. Additionally, since plan review involving structural and/or CASp approval
is not often, staff finds it more cost effective to contract these services out, as opposed to having a full time employee.
To supplement the additional needs of the Building Division, a services agreement for on-call building plan check and
inspection services will be advertised and awarded. Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, an RFP will be issued,
advertised and ultimately a new services agreement will be presented to Council for adoption.
In order to prevent services from lapsing, City staff is proposing to extend the agreement with Interwest for a 3-month
period, or until a new services agreement is awarded; whichever comes first. This will allow time for staff to receive and
evaluate all proposals and enter into a new agreement for the subject services. It is recommended that the City Council
approve Amendment No. 1 to extend the agreement with Interwest for On-Call Plan Check and Inspection services
from September 19, 2019 to December 19, 2019. The proposed amendment has been reviewed and approved as to
form by the City Attorney’s Office.
The City has provided notice to Interwest of its intent to extend the agreement and Interwest is willing to continue to
perform under the agreement with no change in compensation.
Fiscal Impact:
The consultant’s fees are based on actual work performed. Fees billed to the City have ranged from $1,000 to $8,000
in the last three years based on building activity of the Building and Safety Division and mostly driven by new
construction. Currently, this contract is well under budget and City staff does not anticipate exceeding the already
approved, not-to-exceed amount of $195,000. Funds have been accounted for this work under the Building and Safety
Fiscal Year 2020 budget.

is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

services.
2. Except as expressly modified by this Amendment No. 1, all provisions of the
Agreement, including the total compensation amount, shall remain in full force and effect.

the parties with respect to the subject matter included in this Amendment No. 1 and shall
supersede any other agreement, understanding, or arrangement, whether written or oral, between
the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Amendment No. 1.
4. The person or persons executing this Amendment No. 1 on behalf of each of the
parties warrants and represents that he or she has the authority to execute this Amendment No. 1
