A Proclamation Declaring the Month of April 2019 as 'DMV/Donate Life California Month" in the City of Vernon
Recommendation:
A. Present a proclamation declaring the month of April 2019 as 'DMV/Donate Life California. Month" in the City of
Vernon.
Background:
Donate Life California is the state -authorized nonprofit organization responsible for managing the organ, eye and tissue
registry. Their mission is to "save lives by inspiring people to sign up with the state organ, eye and tissue donor registry."
Donate Life California represents the four federally designated organ recovery organizations (OPOs) in the state of
California. and is charged with educating the community about the need and importance for people to register their
donation wishes.
Through public awareness and education campaigns, Donate Life California informs the public of the need for organ
donation and the options available to people who may consider such action, Currently, more than 113,000 individuals
nationwide and more than 21,000 in California are on the national organ transplant waiting list, and on average, 22
people die each day while waiting due to the shortage of donated organs. The need for organ donations among
Hispanic and African American communities is especially urgent.
Millions of lives each year are saved and healed by donors of organs, tissues, marrow and blood. A single individual's
donation of the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, pancreas and small intestine can save up to eight lives; donation of tissue can
save and heal the lives of up to 50 others; and a single blood donation can help three people in need.
Over fifteen million Californians have signed up with the state -authorized Donate Life California Donor Registry to
ensure their wishes to be organ, eye and tissue donors are honored. California residents can sign up with the Donate
Life California Donor Registry when applying for or renewing their driver's licenses or ID cards at the California
Department of Motor Vehicles or by signing up at www.donateLIFEcalifomia.org or www.doneVIDAcafifornia.org.
Due to timing of the request, the City was unable to issue the proclamation at a regular City Council Meeting in April -
However, as requested by the One Legacy organization, the proclamation was provided to be displayed on the
Proclamation Wall at the Donate Life Run/Walk event held in April- A Donate Life Ambassador will be present at the
May 7th Council Meeting to accept the proclamation on behalf of Donate Life California.
Fiscal Impact:
None. There is no cost associated with this item.

Award Presentation for California Highway Patrol (CHP) "10851" Grand Theft Auto Recovery
Presented by: Vernon Police Department in conjunction with a CHP Representative
Recommendation:
No action required by the City Council. This is a presentation only.
Background:
The "10851" Grand Theft Auto Award is named after the California Vehicle Code section pertaining to motor vehicle
theft. This award is sponsored in collaboration between the CHP and AAA Insurance, and recognizes police officers
throughout California who have been proactive in recovering stolen vehicles and apprehending criminals involved in auto
theft.
The "10851"pin is awarded to uniform officers who during a 12-month period achieve any of the following criteria:
1. Made six separate auto theft recoveries cleared by arrests.
2. Recover twelve (12) stolen vehicles, of which a mir n um of three (3) must be cleared by arrests.
This period, Officers Oscar Zozaya and Carlos Ourique have achieved this benchmark. Both Officers are very
proactive in auto theft investigations, and have done a great job combating auto theft crimes in our corrnnunity. Given
the very specific requirements for such an award, very few officers ever achieve this type of recognition.
Fiscal cal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact.

Swear -In Ceremony
Recommendation:
No action required by City Council. This is a presentation only.
Background:
Due to retirements of police swornpersonnel, there area few Police Officer vacancies in the Patrol Division. Leaving
these positions vacant would have a significant impact on the necessary patrol deployment levels and would also
increase overtime costs to cover staff shortages.
To fill current vacancies, the Police Department conducted a recruitment process. Based on a review of the
qualifications of each eligible candidate and an extensive background investigation, it was determined that Bryan
Redona, a graduate of the Rio Hondo Police Academy Class #207, and Marcus Fino a graduate of the 206th Riverside
County Sheriffs Academy, are the best qualified candidates for the position of Police Officer.
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to the City general budget as these positions are included in the 2018-2019 police budget.

Meeting Date: May 7, 2019
SUBJECT
Approval of an Attorney Services Agreement (Litigation & Advisory) between the City of Vernon and Rutan & Tucker
LLP, to provide specialized outside legal services.
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the proposed Attorney Services Agreement (Litigation) with Rutan & Tucker is exempt from
California Environmental Quality Act ('CEQA') review, because it is a continuing administrative and fiscal activity that
will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, and therefore does not constitute a "project" as
defined by CEQA Guidelines section 15378; and
B. Approve an Attorney Services Agreement (Litigation & Advisory) between the City of Vernon and Rutan &
Tucker, in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, for an amount not to exceed $200,000.00; and
C. Authorize the City Administrator to execute the Attorney Services Agreement (Litigation & Advisory) between the
City of Vernon and Rutan & Tucker for a three year term with an effective date of April 10, 2019.
Background:
The City Attorney's Office functions as the legal advisory and legal counsel of record for the City Council, City boards
and commissions, City stal� and represents the City in litigation, whether directly or with special counsel. The City
Attorney's Office is currently staffed with three attorneys, and has greatly reduced the City's reliance on outside
counsel, bringing the vast majority of the City's legal services in-house and greatly reducing expenditures on outside
attorneys. There are still occasions when special counsel is needed, such as legal matters requiring specialized expertise
or litigation requiring additional staffing and support.
Accordingly, the City Attorney's Office engages special counsel to assist from time to time and as -needed for specific
matters (ie., not via a monthly retainer). The advice or representation provided by special counsel is for an "on call"
basis, and could be in the form of a request for expert analysis on a specific problem, or to represent the City in a
lawsuit.
Pursuant to the City's good governance reform contract terms and procedures, all professional services contracts must
be subject to a new competitive selection process every three years, unless commercially unreasonable to do so. The
prior competitive selection process for legal services was done in 2016, and therefore needed to be rebid.
Selection Process:
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
On or about February 13, 2019, the City Attorney's office issued a Request for Proposals for Specialized Outside
Legal Services. The Request was posted on the City's website and advertised in the Daily Journal (a print and online
legal trade publication). Responses to the Request for Proposals were due on or before
March 18, 2019.
In total, the City Attorney's office received proposals from 16 firms throughout the state, many of whom were
well -qualified in the subject practice areas. The proposals were subject to a review process by the City Attorney's
office and two other City department heads (hereinafter the "selection panel'), and individual scores were applied using
the weighted evaluation criteria set forth in the Request for Proposals. Individual scores were assigned by members of
the selection panel, and the top rated firms in various practice areas were identified for further consideration.
After the selection panel's scores were averaged, the following were ranked as the top three full service firms:
1. Rutan & Tucker LLP
2. Burke Williams & Sorensen LLP
3. Best Best & Krieger LLP
Rutan & Tucker LLP (Rutan) received the top overall score, and selected after this comprehensive competitive
selection process in accordance with City procedures and good governance contracting principles.
After several years of using Rutan's services on key litigation and advisory matters under the current agreement, the City
Attorney's Office remains highly satisfied with the firm's representation and aggressive, efficient advocacy style. In
addition to their legal expertise, the attorneys assigned to assist on City matters have also gained valuable institutional
knowledge of City issues and precedent.
Accordingly, staff is requesting authority to enter into an Attorney Services Agreement with Rutan for a three-year term,
with total consideration not to exceed $200,000.
Rutan's proposed hourly billing rates for advisory/transactional services are $350 (partners) and $275 (associates), and
for litigation -related services are $370 (partners) and $295 (associates). In accordance with the City's good
governance contract terms and procedures, these rates are similar to or more favorable than the rates charged to other
governmental entities.
Fiscal Impact:
The maximum fiscal impact to the City under the proposed contract term is $200,000.00, which takes into account the
continued litigation of ongoing legal matters. This amount has been included in the budget for the City Attorney's Office
for fiscal years 2018-2019 and 2019-2020.

is consistent with professional skill and care. This Agreement shall automatically terminate
three (3) years from the Effective Date, subject and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
3.0 Litigation Budgeting.
Associate Counsel handling City matters will be expected to institute and to
adhere to litigation budgeting and planning procedures in the sole discretion of the City
Attorney. The general framework of the litigation budgeting and planning procedures is as
follows:
3.1 Case Budget:
3.1.1 Associate Counsel shall, if requested by the City Attorney,
provide a Litigation Plan and a Case Budget, or revisions
thereof, which will include a projection of recommended
steps to be taken in the litigation and a range of costs for
each step. The Plan and Budget will be reviewed and
updated as necessary, at least every twelve months, or as
more frequently requested by the City Attorney.
3.1.2 The Case Budget shall include an estimate of Associate
Counsel's attorneys' hours, fees and disbursements during
each phase and activity, including: 1) pre -commencement
(legal and factual research for the complaint or answer); 2)
pleadings; 3) motions (including research); 4) initial
discovery; 5) factual investigation of merits (interviewing
clients, employees and third parties); 6) review and
analyze City's documents; 7) expert (non -medical)
investigation and reports; 8) medical experts and
examinations; 9) legal research on merits; 10) more
thorough discovery (including the identity of deponents and
expected costs of each deposition and preparation); 11)
post -discovery pre-trial dispositive motions; 12) settlement
evaluation and negotiations; 13) trial preparation; and 14)
trial. All anticipated expenses must be listed and costs
estimated.
3.1.3 The Case Budget should include the anticipated cost of
each line item, the time estimated to complete it and the
identity (name, title, billing rate) of the primary attorney
handling it.
3.1.4 Each line item should be given a code number that can be
used in the billing process and in preparation of updated
progress reports.
3.1.5 The Case Budget is not a fixed fee agreement and is
subject to revision. However, Associate Counsel
understands and agrees that failure to timely submit a
3
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
Case Budget or major unjustified deviations therefrom may
constitute a breach and result in termination of this
Agreement with Associate Counsel.
3.2 Litigation Plan.
3.2.1 In addition to the Case Budget, Associate Counsel shall
prepare a Litigation Plan, on forms as may be required by the City, at least every twelve months
or as more frequently requested. The Litigation Plan will start as an initial evaluation (before
substantial costs are incurred) and shall include, with a discussion (where applicable): a)
anticipated total costs; b) the primary issues and likely resolution; c) the probability of success —
either on the merits or on procedural grounds; d) a strategy for defense/offense/resolution,
including a settlement/trial recommendation based on a cost -benefit analysis; e) damages
claimed; f) evidence (i.e., witness, documentary or demonstrative) relevant to liability or
damages; g) recent developments such as law and motion rulings, judicial opinions in other
cases, and legislative/executive action; h) deposition summaries, if appropriate and cost
effective; and i) settlement demands. The Litigation Plan will be modified during the litigation as
the need arises. The City Attorney shall be consulted by Associate Counsel regarding the
component parts of projects/cases handled so that the City Attorney can determine, or secure a
determination from the City Council, as appropriate, tactics, strategy and whether a particular
activity makes sense from an economic standpoint or can be done more economically in
another fashion.
3.2.2 The City Attorney is to be consulted regarding staffing of
litigation and is to be advised of any significant shift in staffing.
3.2.3 The City Attorney is to be provided with copies of any
billing manuals or directions for billing practices in use by Associate Counsel within thirty (30)
days of signing this Agreement.
3.2.4 It is the policy of the City of Vernon to avoid a "deep
pockets" reputation by taking a "hard-nosed" approach to settlements, and by not giving
nuisance settlements. Settlement will generally be considered only where there is some liability
exposure. If there is no liability exposure, trial is generally the only option.
4.0 Compensation. Reimbursement and Methods of Payments.
4.1 Compensation.
Associate Counsel has established rates for the City of Vernon which are
comparable to and do not exceed the best rates offered to other governmental entities in and
around Los Angeles County for the same services. Fees for all services provided hereunder by
all billers shall be charged in accordance with Exhibit "B", which is attached hereto and fully
incorporated herein by reference. The grand total compensation under this Agreement shall not
exceed the amount of $200,000.00, without prior approval of the City Council and written
amendment of this Agreement.
4.2 Reimbursement.
In addition to the compensation provided above, the City will reimburse
Associate Counsel only for the following expenses: printing, copying costs (not to exceed 10
Pn
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
cents a page), transcription fees, reporter's fees and ground transportation (in the amount set
forth by the Internal Revenue Service standard mileage rate). Any other expense (e.g., travel
expenses or travel time beyond Southern California) must be approved by the City Attorney in
writing and in advance. No compensation shall be allowed for general overhead or support
services such as typing, word processing, scanning hard -copy documents to .pdf format,
secretarial time of any nature (normal, overflow or overtime), clerical work, Lexis or Westlaw,
equipment rental, calendaring, setting up files, updating files, computer time or service, nor any
other expense not itemized in the approved Case Budget or otherwise approved by the City
Attorney. There shall be no mark-ups on outside services.
4.3 The City Attorney must approve in advance any single
disbursement item in excess of $500.00, including, but not limited to, investigators, copying and
experts. Requests for costs exceeding $500.00 shall contain a recommendation of alternative
information services, including use of City employees. Associate Counsel will use City Staff in
lieu of outside experts whenever feasible.
4.4 The City expects moderation with regard to all expenses.
4.5 Method of Billing.
Unless otherwise agreed, Associate Counsel shall provide monthly bills
unless fees and costs for a particular month are insignificant (i.e., $500 or less), in which case
such charges will be added to the following month's bill. The following information must be
provided in monthly bills:
A. A detailed description of work, in time increments of .1 hour (one tenth of an
hour) for and by each and every individual billing services. Associate
Counsel shall keep the City advised regarding the identity and the billing
rates of those people who work on the litigation account.
B. Identification of the lawyer who is in charge of the matter.
C. Detailed disbursement breakdowns, including the nature and purpose of each
disbursement.
D. Each billing item will be separately stated on a separate line identifying the
biller, the time spent and the exact nature of the service rendered. Narrative
billing and block billing are unacceptable. For example, if numerous tasks
are undertaken in one day, each should be identified with a specified time for
performing that task, i.e. a telephone call, a court appearance, a meeting or
legal research. All tasks performed on the same day should be entered as
separate entries, identifying the time spent on each. Telephone conferences
should specify the participants and the subject matter discussed. The City
will not pay for vague descriptions for services which do not state the precise
nature of the work performed and the need for the work. Words such as
"research", "strategy", "analysis", "discovery", "conference", "preparation",
"case management", "memorandum", "correspondence", "telephone call" or
"meeting," without an explanation of (1) the specific topic or subject matter,
(2) the persons involved, and (3) the need therefor, do not allow for
accountability and are therefore non -reimbursable.
5
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
E. The City will not pay for inter -office conferences among attorneys/billers
unless a conference is a necessary strategy meeting relating to some
significant legal issue or event, such as an upcoming trial, and then only one
attorney may be billed. Where charges are made for conferences, the
specific reason and need for each conference must be stated in detail, and
the participants identified.
F. Where charges are made for research time, the specific issue being
researched and the need must be identified. City has retained Associate
Counsel for its expertise, and therefore expects not to be billed for
introductory or background research. The City will not pay for attorneys, law
clerks and paralegals educating themselves or doing work of a transient
nature on the case.
G. The City expects the attorney assigned to the case to handle all significant
matters in the litigation. If other attorneys are assigned to assist the primary
attorney, the City must be notified. The City may request that the assigned
work be instead handled by the primary attorney. Thus, only those attorneys
or persons approved in advance by the City may bill on the case. Upon City
request, resumes will be provided for all persons (other than clerical or
secretarial) working on the case.
H. No more than two non -attorney support staff may bill on a particular case
without the prior approval of the City.
I. One paralegal may be used. Assignment of work to such paralegal should
not result in duplicative work by the attorneys or reworking of paralegal's
work. Paralegal shall not perform clerical work, such as filing, indexing, date -
stamping, organizing, etc., but shall perform work such as research,
summarizing depositions, investigation, interviews of witnesses, etc.
J. Upon request, each item billed must be coded to a specific Case Budget line
item, so a bill may be easily compared with the approved Case Budget.
K. A tracking system must be set up to periodically, at least every six months,
compare the amount of work completed to a percentage of the Case Budget
absorbed.
L. The City Attorney reserves the right to request various levels of detail and
specific formats (such as columnar comparisons with established budgets).
M. The City will not pay for more than one biller doing any task (e.g. two or more
attorneys attending the same depositions or the same court appearances, a
biller redoing the work of another biller, or duplicative entries for reviewing
and analyzing documentation and legal research).
N. Charges for time spent complying with billing inquiries and/or City audits are
non -reimbursable.
O. Photocopies of deposition transcripts shall be made whenever possible to
reduce deposition expenses.

AGENDA ITEM APPROVED

P. No finance charge or interest will be paid by the City, nor billed by Associate
Counsel.
4.6 Timing of Payment.
The City shall pay Associate Counsel for services rendered and
costs incurred hereunder, at the rates and in the amounts provided hereunder, on a monthly
basis.
5.0 Engagement of Other Counsel, Specialists or Experts.
Associate Counsel shall not engage or otherwise incur an obligation to
pay other counsel, specialists or experts for services in connection with this Agreement without
the prior written approval of the City Attorney.
6.0 Termination of Agreement and Legal Services.
Subject to the applicable provisions of the Rules of Professional Conduct
of the State Bar of California, this Agreement and all legal services to be rendered hereunder
may be terminated at any time by written notice from either party with or without cause. In such
event, all finished or unfinished documents, project data and reports, both originals and all
duplicate copies, in all forms and media requested by the City, shall immediately be turned over
to the possession of City, which owns all such materials. In the event of such termination,
Associate Counsel shall be paid for all satisfactory work, unless such termination is made for
cause, in which event compensation, if any, shall be adjusted, in the City's sole discretion, in
light of the particular facts and circumstances involved in such termination.
7.0 Interest of Members of Local Public Agency.
No member of the governing body of the City, and no other officer,
employee or agent of the City who exercises any discretion, function or responsibility in
connection with the carrying out of any project to which this Agreement pertains, shall have any
personal interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement.
8.0 General Procedures.
8.1 Copies of major pleadings, reports on significant developments
and quarterly status reports shall be submitted to keep the City Attorney advised of any major
developments in the lawsuit. Once the Litigation Plan is approved, Associate Counsel need not
advise the City of each and every step being taken. As long as Associate Counsel is complying
with the Litigation Plan, it should provide periodic reviews and information on significant matters.
The City does not, however, want boilerplate routine letters announcing each and every
procedural step being taken.
9.0 Policy for Investiciation and Discovery Assistance.
A copy of the City Attorney's Policy for Investigation and Discovery
Assistance is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" which is attached hereto and fully incorporated
herein by reference.

11.1 The City and any other Federal, State or local governmental

private auditors, lodging, meals and overhead.

12.1 Associate Counsel agrees to indemnify City, its officers, elected

any and all actions, suits, claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties,

City of Vernon Specialized Outside Legal Services Request for Proposals
1. INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT
Pursuant to Vernon Municipal Code Section 2.17.30(B), City contracts for professional
services must be rebid every three years. The City of Vernon is requesting proposals from
law firms interested in assisting the City Attorney's Office with various specialized litigation,
transactional, and/or advisory matters on an "on call" basis for specific Service Areas listed
below.
The City will select one or more firms as Associate Counsel in the Service Areas, based on
demonstrated competence and a cost effective approach to advising the City on such legal
matters.
2. BACKGROUND
The City of Vernon was founded in 1905, is approximately 5.2 square miles in size and is
located approximately 5 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles Caldomia. Over its
long history, Vernon has been developed as an industrial community. At the turn of the
2W1 century the lands that make up Vernon were composed largely of farmlands. The
presence of three major rail lines in the area led influential business and property owners
to encourage the railroad companies to run spur lines onto the farmlands. These rail
extensions enabled the creation of an "exclusively industrial" city. By the 1920's, Vernon
was attracting large stockyards and meatpacking facilities. In the 1930's, Vernon became
the location of choice for many heavy industrial plants. As economic conditions changed
over the decades, these large scale industrial operations have relocated out of Southern
California and Vernon has attracted smaller, lighter industrial facilities. The City's business
friendly environment, low cost utilities and key location for trucking and rail transport
continue to position Vernon as an ideal location for industrial uses.
Vernon has a uniquely small residential population, with approximately 275 residents.
Despite the low residential housing numbers, Vernon is home to more than 1,800 business
that employ approximately 50,000 people, serving as a vital economic engine in the region.
Vernon maintains strong philanthropic ties with the neighboring communities where much
of its workforce lives, providing significant financial support for public services and
education.
City Government: The City Council consists of five members, elected at -large, who serve
five-year staggered terms. The City Council annually appoints a Mayor and a Mayor Pro
Tern from its own membership to serve one-year terms.
Labor Force: Vernon has approximately 280 employees, and its departments include a
Fire Department, Police Department, Finance Department, Public Works Department,
Public Utilities Department and Health and Environmental Control Department.
Recognized bargaining units include the Vernon Police Officers Benefit Association,
Vernon Police Management Association, Vernon Firemen's Association, the Vemon Fire
Management Association, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 47, and
Teamsters Local 911.

The City Attorney's Office is currently staffed with three attorneys (City Attorney and two

mediations, pre-trial or trial matters. Associate Counsel must demonstrate a high level of
expertise in one or more of the following Service Areas.
If it best serves the interests of the City, a contract may be awarded to one or more law
firms for different Service Areas, although the City is open to retaining a single, all-purpose
firm. Firms are encouraged to propose services only for those areas in which they
are truly expert:

California law and the Charter and ordinances of the City;
WITNESSETH:
NOW, THEREFORE, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
1.0 Scope of Services.
Associate Counsel hereby is associated as Counsel of Record in association with
the City Attorney to perform such legal services as may be required from time to time in
connection with assigned litigation and other matters as specified in Exhibit "A" hereto.
[principal member name], a principal member of the firm of Associate Counsel, shall be

that all performances required hereunder by Associate Counsel shall be performed to the
satisfaction of said City Attorney.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
Associate Counsel shall report to and receive direction from the City Attorney
only, and not from any other Department Head or City staff.
2.0 Time of Performance.
The services of Associate Counsel are to commence as of the signing hereof
(the "Effective Date") and the written assignment of particular matters, provided, the
effectiveness of this Agreement is subject to approval by the City Council or City Administrator
(as appropriate), and shall be undertaken and completed in such sequence as to assure their
completion as expeditiously as is consistent with professional skill and care. This Agreement
shall automatically terminate three (3) years from the Effective Date, subject and pursuant to the
terms of this Agreement.
3.0 Litigation Budgeting.
Associate Counsel handling City matters will be expected to institute and to
adhere to litigation budgeting and planning procedures in the sole discretion of the City
Attorney. The general framework of the litigation budgeting and planning procedures is as
follows:
3.1 Case Budget:
3.1.1 Associate Counsel shall, if requested by the City Attorney,
provide a Litigation Plan and a Case Budget, or revisions
thereof, which will include a projection of recommended
steps to be taken in the litigation and a range of costs for
each step. The Plan and Budget will be reviewed and
updated as necessary, at least every twelve months, or as
more frequently requested by the City Attorney.
3.1.2 The Case Budget shall include an estimate of Associate
Counsel's attorneys' hours, fees and disbursements during
each phase and activity, including: 1) pre -commencement
(legal and factual research for the complaint or answer); 2)
pleadings; 3) motions (including research); 4) initial
discovery; 5) factual investigation of merits (interviewing
clients, employees and third parties); 6) review and
analyze City's documents; 7) expert (non -medical)
investigation and reports; 8) medical experts and
examinations; 9) legal research on merits; 10) more
thorough discovery (including the identity of deponents and
expected costs of each deposition and preparation); 11)
post -discovery pre-trial dispositive motions; 12) settlement
evaluation and negotiations; 13) trial preparation; and 14)
trial. All anticipated expenses must be listed and costs
estimated.
3.1.3 The Case Budget should include the anticipated cost of
each line item, the time estimated to complete it and the
identity (name, title, billing rate) of the primary attomey
handling it.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
3.1.4 Each line item should be given a code number that can be
used in the billing process and in preparation of updated
progress reports.
3.1.5 The Case Budget is not a fixed fee agreement and is
subject to revision. However, Associate Counsel
understands and agrees that failure to timely submit a
Case Budget or major unjustified deviations therefrom may
constitute a breach and result in termination of this
Agreement with Associate Counsel.
3.2 Litigation Plan.
3.2.1 In addition to the Case Budget, Associate Counsel shall
prepare a Litigation Plan, on forms as may be required by the City, at least every twelve months
or as more frequently requested. The Litigation Plan will start as an initial evaluation (before
substantial costs are incurred) and shall include, with a discussion (where applicable): a)
anticipated total costs; b) the primary issues and likely resolution; c) the probability of success —
either on the merits or on procedural grounds; d) a strategy for defense/offense/resolution,
including a settlement/trial recommendation based on a cost -benefit analysis; e) damages
claimed; f) evidence (i.e., witness, documentary or demonstrative) relevant to liability or
damages; g) recent developments such as law and motion rulings, judicial opinions in other
cases, and legislative/executive action; h) deposition summaries, it appropriate and cost
effective; and i) settlement demands. The Litigation Plan will be modified during the litigation as
the need arises. The City Attorney shall be consulted by Associate Counsel regarding the
component parts of projects/cases handled so that the City Attorney can determine, or secure a
determination from the City Council, as appropriate, tactics, strategy and whether a particular
activity makes sense from an economic standpoint or can be done more economically in
another fashion.
3.2.2 The City Attorney is to be consulted regarding staffing of
litigation and is to be advised of any significant shift in staffing.
3.2.3 The City Attorney is to be provided with copies of any
billing manuals or directions for billing practices in use by Associate Counsel within thirty (30)
days of signing this Agreement.
3.2.4 It is the policy of the City of Vernon to avoid a 'deep
pockets' reputation by taking a 'hard-nosed' approach to settlements, and by not giving
nuisance settlements. Settlement will generally be considered only where there is some liability
exposure. If there is no liability exposure, trial is generally the only option.
4.0 Compensation, Reimbursement and Methods of Payments.
4.1 Compensation.
Associate Counsel has established rates for the City of Vernon which are
comparable to and do not exceed the best rates offered to other governmental entities in and
around Los Angeles County for the same services. Fees for all services provided hereunder by
all billers shall be charged in accordance with Exhibit 'B', which is attached hereto and fully
incorporated herein by reference. The grand total compensation under this Agreement shall not
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
exceed the amount of $(insert amount], without prior approval of the City Council and written
amendment of this Agreement.
4.2 Reimbursement.
In addition to the compensation provided above, the City will reimburse
Associate Counsel only for the following expenses: printing, copying costs (not to exceed 10
cents a page), transcription fees, reporter's fees and ground transportation (in the amount set
forth by the Internal Revenue Service standard mileage rate). Any other expense (e.g., travel
expenses or travel time beyond Southern California) must be approved by the City Attorney in
writing and in advance. No compensation shall be allowed for general overhead or support
services such as typing, word processing, scanning hard -copy documents to .pdf format,
secretarial time of any nature (normal, overflow or overtime), clerical work, Lexis or Westlaw,
equipment rental, calendaring, setting up files, updating files, computer time or service, nor any
other expense not itemized in the approved Case Budget or otherwise approved by the City
Attorney. There shall be no mark-ups on outside services.
4.3 The City Attorney must approve in advance any single
disbursement item in excess of $500.00, including, but not limited to, investigators, copying and
experts. Requests for costs exceeding S500.00 shall contain a recommendation of alternative
information services, including use of City employees. Associate Counsel will use City Staff in
lieu of outside experts whenever feasible.
4.4 The City expects moderation with regard to all expenses.
4.5 Method of Billing.
Unless otherwise agreed, Associate Counsel shall provide monthly bills
unless fees and costs for a particular month are insignificant (i.e., $500 or less), in which case
such charges will be added to the following month's bill. The following information must be
provided in monthly bills:
A. A detailed description of work, in time increments of .1 hour (one tenth of an
hour) for and by each and every individual billing services. Associate
Counsel shall keep the City advised regarding the identity and the billing
rates of those people who work on the litigation account.
B. Identification of the lawyer who is in charge of the matter.
C_ Detailed disbursement breakdowns, including the nature and purpose of each
disbursement.
D. Each billing item will be separately stated on a separate line identifying the
biller, the time spent and the exact nature of the service rendered. Narrative
billing and block billing are unacceptable. For example, if numerous tasks
are undertaken in one day, each should be identified with a specified time for
performing that task, i.e. a telephone call, a court appearance, a meeting or
legal research. All tasks performed on the same day should be entered as
separate entries, identifying the time spent on each. Telephone conferences
should specify the participants and the subject matter discussed. The City
will not pay for vague descriptions for services which do not state the precise
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
nature of the work performed and the need for the work. Words such as
'research', "strategy", "analysis`, 'discovery", 'conference', 'preparation',
"case management', 'memorandum', 'correspondence', 'telephone call' or
"meeting,' without an explanation of (1) the specific topic or subject matter,
(2) the persons involved, and (3) the need therefor, do not allow for
accountability and are therefore non -reimbursable.
E The City will not pay for inter -office conferences among attorneys/billers
unless a conference is a necessary strategy meeting relating to some
significant legal issue or event, such as an upcoming trial, and then only one
attorney may be billed. Where charges are made for conferences, the
specific reason and need for each conference must be stated in detail, and
the participants identified.
F Where charges are made for research time, the specific issue being
researched and the need must be identified. City has retained Associate
Counsel for its expertise, and therefore expects not to be billed for
introductory or background research. The City will not pay for attorneys, law
clerks and paralegals educating themselves or doing work of a transient
nature on the case.
G. The City expects the attorney assigned to the case to handle all significant
matters in the litigation. If other attorneys are assigned to assist the primary
attorney, the City must be notified. The City may request that the assigned
work be instead handled by the primary attorney. Thus, only those attorneys
or persons approved in advance by the City may bill on the case. Upon City
request, resumes will be provided for all persons (other than clerical or
secretarial) working on the case.
-i No more than two non -attorney support staff may bill on a particular case
without the prior approval of the City.
I. One paralegal may be used. Assignment of work to such paralegal should
not result in duplicative work by the attorneys or reworking of paralegal's
work. Paralegal shall not perform clerical work, such as filing, indexing, date -
stamping, organizing, etc., but shall perform work such as research,
summarizing depositions, investigation, interviews of witnesses, etc.
J Upon request, each item billed must be coded to a specific Case Budget line
item, so a bill may be easily compared with the approved Case Budget.
K. A tracking system must be set up to periodically, at least every six months,
compare the amount of work completed to a percentage of the Case Budget
absorbed.
i The City Attorney reserves the right to request various levels of detail and
specific formats (such as columnar comparisons with established budgets).
M. The City will not pay for more than one biller doing any task (e.g. two or more
attorneys attending the same depositions or the same court appearances, a
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
biller redoing the work of another biller, or duplicative entries for reviewing
and analyzing documentation and legal research).
N. Charges for time spent complying with billing inquiries and/or City audits are
non -reimbursable.
O. Photocopies of deposition transcripts shall be made whenever possible to
reduce deposition expenses.
P. No finance charge or interest will be paid by the City, nor billed by Associate
Counsel.
4.6 Timing of Payment.
The City shall pay Associate Counsel for services rendered and
costs incurred hereunder, at the rates and in the amounts provided hereunder, on a monthly
basis.
5.0 Engagement of Other Counsel, Specialists or Experts.
Associate Counsel shall not engage or otherwise incur an obligation to
pay other counsel, specialists or experts for services in connection with this Agreement without
the prior written approval of the City Attorney.
6.0 Termination of Agreement and Legal Services.
Subject to the applicable provisions of the Rules of Professional Conduct
of the State Bar of California, this Agreement and all legal services to be rendered hereunder
may be terminated at any time by written notice from either party with or without cause. In such
event, all finished or unfinished documents, project data and reports, both originals and all
duplicate copies, in all forms and media requested by the City, shall immediately be turned over
to the possession of City, which owns all such materials. In the event of such termination,
Associate Counsel shall be paid for all satisfactory work, unless such termination is made for
cause, in which event compensation, if any, shall be adjusted, in the City's sole discretion, in
light of the particular facts and circumstances involved in such termination.
7.0 Interest of Members of Local Public Agency.
No member of the governing body of the City, and no other officer,
employee or agent of the City who exercises any discretion, function or responsibility in
connection with the carrying out of any project to which this Agreement pertains, shall have any
personal interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement.
8.0 General Procedures.
8.1 Copies of major pleadings, reports on significant developments
and quarterly status reports shall be submitted to keep the City Attorney advised of any major
developments in the lawsuit. Once the Litigation Plan is approved, Associate Counsel need not
advise the City of each and every step being taken. As long as Associate Counsel is complying
with the Litigation Plan, it should provide periodic reviews and information on significant matters.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
The City does not, however, want boilerplate routine letters announcing each and every
procedural step being taken.
9.0 Policy for Investigation and Discovery Assistance.

Assistance is attached hereto as Exhibit "C" which is attached hereto and fully incorporated
herein by reference.

Associate Counsel is an officer or employee of the City of Vernon except to the extent permitted
by law.

City Attorney before accepting any representation adverse to the City (actual or apparent)
during the term of this Agreement, and to forego such representation if the City Attorney, in
his/her sole discretion, objects for any reason.
11.0 Maintenance and Inspection of Records.
11.1 The City and any other Federal, State or local governmental
agency, and any of their authorized auditors or representatives, shall have access to, and the
right to audit and reproduce any of Associate Counsel's records to the extent the City or such
other governmental agency deems necessary to ensure that City is paying only the amounts to
which Associate Counsel is properly entitled or for other purposes relating to the Agreement.
11.2 Associate Counsel shall maintain and preserve all such records
for at least three (3) years after termination of the Agreement or until an audit has been
completed and accepted in writing by City. Upon written notice by the City, the Associate
Counsel shall promptly make all such records available to auditors or other representatives of
the City or other governmental agencies.
11.3 If Associate Counsel does not maintain such records in the City of
Vernon, Associate Counsel shall either deliver said records at its expense to City or shall
promptly reimburse City for all reasonable costs incurred in conducting the audit at a location
other than the City of Vernon, including, but not limited to, expenses for personnel, salaries,
private auditors, lodging, meals and overhead.
12.0 Indemni .
12.1 Associate Counsel agrees to indemnify City, its officers, elected
officials, employees and agents against, and will hold and save each of them harmless from,
any and all actions, suits, claims, damages to persons or property, losses, costs, penalties,
obligations, errors, omissions or liabilities (herein "claims or liabilities"), including but not limited
to professional negligence, that may be asserted or claimed by any person, firm or entity arising
out of or in connection with the work, operations or activities of Associate Counsel, its agents,
employees, subcontractors, or invitees, provided for herein, or arising from the acts or
omissions of Associate Counsel hereunder, or arising from Associate Counsel's performance of
or failure to perform any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement, except to the

AGENDA ITEM APPROVED

3.2.2 The City Attorney shall be consulted by Associate Counsel

can be done more economically in another fashion.
3.2.3 The City Attorney is to be consulted regarding staffing of litigation
and is to be advised of any significant shift in staffing.
3.2.4 The City Attorney is to be provided with copies of any billing
manuals or directions for billing practices in use by Associate
Counsel within thirty (30) days of signing this Agreement.
4.0 Compensation, Reimbursement and Methods of Payments.
4.1 Compensation.
Associate Counsel has established rates for the City of Vernon which are
comparable to and do not exceed the best rates offered to other governmental entities in and
around Los Angeles County for the same services. Fees for all services provided hereunder by
all billers shall be charged in accordance with Exhibit "B", which is attached hereto and fully
incorporated herein by reference. Associate Counsel's grand total, not -to -exceed compensation

AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
4.4 The City expects moderation with regard to all expenses.
4.5 Method of Billing.
Unless otherwise agreed, Associate Counsel shall provide monthly bills
unless fees and costs for a particular month are insignificant (i.e., $500 or less), in which case
such charges will be added to the following month's bill. The following information must be
provided in monthly bills:
A A detailed description of work, in time increments of .1 hour (one tenth of an
hour) for and by each and every individual billing services_ Associate
Counsel shall keep the City advised regarding the identity and the billing
rates of those people who work on the litigation account.
B. Identification of the lawyer who is in charge of the matter.
C. Detailed disbursement breakdowns, including the nature and purpose of each
disbursement.
D. Each billing item will be separately stated on a separate line identifying the
biller, the time spent, and the exact nature of the service rendered. Narrative
billing and block billing are unacceptable. For example, if numerous tasks are
undertaken in one day, each should be identified with a specified time for
performing that task, i.e. a telephone call, a court appearance, a meeting or
legal research. All tasks performed on the same day should be entered as
separate entries, identifying the time spent on each. Telephone conferences
should specify the participants and the subject matter discussed. The City will
not pay for vague descriptions for services which do not state the precise
nature of the work performed and the need for the work. Words such as
'research', "strategy', "analysis', "discovery', 'conference', 'preparation",
"case management', "memorandum', "correspondence', 'telephone call" or
"meeting', without an explanation of (1) the specific topic or subject matter.
(2) the persons involved, and (3) the need therefor, do not allow for
accountability and are therefore non -reimbursable.
E. The City will not pay for inter -office conferences among attorneys/billers
unless a conference is a necessary strategy meeting relating to some
significant legal issue or event, such as an upcoming trial, and then only one
attorney may be billed. Where charges are made for conferences, the
specific reason and need for each conference must be stated in detail, and
the participants identified.
F. Where charges are made for research time, the specdic issue being
researched and the need must be identified. City has retained Associate
Counsel for its expertise, and therefore expects not to be billed for
introductory or background research. The City will not pay for attorneys, law
clerks and paralegals educating themselves or doing work of a transient
nature on the case.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
G. The City expects the attorney assigned to the case to handle all significant
matters in the case. If other attorneys are assigned to assist the primary
attorney, the City must be notified. The City may request that the assigned
work be instead handled by the primary attorney. Thus, only those attorneys
or persons approved in advance by the City may bill on the case. Upon City
request, resumes will be provided for all persons (other than clerical or
secretarial) working on the case.
H. No more than two non -attorney support staff may bill on a particular case
without the prior approval of the City.
I. One paralegal may be used. Assignment of work to such paralegal should not
result in duplicative work by the attorneys, or reworking of paralegal's work.
Paralegal shall not perform clerical work, such as filing, indexing, date -
stamping, organizing, etc., but shall perform work such as research,
summarizing depositions, investigation. interviews of witnesses, etc.
J. Upon request, each item billed must be coded to a specific budget line item,
so a bill may be easily compared with the approved budget.
K. A tracking system must be set up to periodically, at least every six months, to
compare the amount of work completed to a percentage of the budget
absorbed.
L. The City Attorney reserves the right to request various levels of detail and
specific formats (such as columnar comparisons with established budgets).
M. The City will not pay for more than one biller doing any task (e.g. two or more
attorneys attending the same depositions or the same court appearances, a
biller redoing the work of another biller, or duplicative entries for reviewing
and analyzing documentation and legal research).
N. Charges for time spent complying with billing inquiries and/or City audits are
non -reimbursable.
O. Photocopies of deposition transcripts shall be made whenever possible to
reduce deposition expenses.
P. No finance charge or interest will be paid by the City, nor billed by Associate
Counsel.

incurred hereunder, at the rates and in the amounts provided hereunder, on a monthly basis.

AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD

of the State Bar of California, this Agreement and all legal services to be rendered hereunder
may be terminated at any time by written notice from either party with or without cause. In such
event, all finished or unfinished documents, project data and reports, both originals and all
duplicate copies, in all forms and media requested by the City, shall immediately be turned over
to the possession of City, which owns all such materials. In the event of such termination,
Associate Counsel shall be paid for all satisfactory work, unless such termination is made for
cause, in which event compensation, if any, shall be adjusted, in the City's sole discretion, in
light of the particular facts and circumstances involved in such termination.

reports shall be submitted to keep the City Attorney advised of any
major developments in the matter. Once the Plan is approved,
Associate Counsel need not advise the City of each and every
step being taken. As long as Associate Counsel is complying with
the Plan, it should provide periodic reviews and information on
significant matters. The City does not, however, want boilerplate
routine letters announcing each and every procedural step being
taken.

Meeting Date: May 7, 2019
SUBJECT
Approval of Service Agreement with Arion Global, Inc., for Management of the City's 2019 Electronic Waste
(E-Waste) Recycling Event
Recommendation:
A. Find that because the proposed one day waste collection event at the fire station is an action taken to protect the
environment and constitutes normal operations of the fire station, the activity and proposed agreement is categorically
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15308 (actions
taken to protect the environment), 15323 (normal operations ofpublic facilities) and 15061(b)(3), the general rule that
CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment; and
B. Approve a Service Agreement with Arion Global, Inc., in substantially the same form as submitted herewith, for
E-waste pick-up and disposal services in connection with the City's 2019 Electronic Waste (E-Waste) Recycling Event;
and
C. Authorize the City Administrator to execute the Services Agreement with Arion Global, Inc., for management of the
recycling event scheduled for Wednesday, May 15, 2019.
Background:
With the success of electronic waste collection events held in Vernon at least annually since 2007, and continuing
interest by the business community, staff has scheduled a recycling event for May 15, 2019. For 2019, staff is using
Arion Global Inc. ("Arion") which is headquartered in nearby Commerce to help us collect and properly dispose of
e-wastes along with some Universal Wastes that are generated by Vernon businesses. Arion will provide e-waste
pick-up and disposal services at no cost to the City, as Arion should be able to profit somewhat from the value of the
material it accepts. Some Universal Wastes require special handling, and to facilitate removal that service is provided for
a nominal fee to the public. Arion will bill businesses directly for those services. Please see the attached flyer for
additional information.
The 2019 E-Waste Recycling Event is scheduled for Wednesday, May 15, 2019, at Fire Station #76 at Fruitland and
Downey Road. Arion will provide the necessary equipment and most of the manpower (some participation by the Citys
Department of Public Works personnel may be required for logistical purposes). Arion has stated it will collect a fee for
Universal Wastes only ($.28 per foot for fluorescent light tubes, $3.85 for mixed fluorescents & $1.65/pound batteries).
All electronic wastes (e-wastes) will be collected and disposed of for free. A certificate of destruction will be
generated by Arlon and will total the amounts of wastes collected during the event.
Attached for reference is the event flyer which includes a list of items that would be accepted for free at the recycling
event. The proposed agreement has been approved as to form by the City Attorneys office.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
Fiscal Impact:
There is no fiscal impact to the City. Arlon is providing the service at no cost to the City of Vernon.

SUBJECT
A Resolution Appointing Tilahun (Abraham) Y. Alemu To Serve As The Interim General Manager of Public Utilities
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the attached resolution in this staff report is exempt from California. Environmental Quality Act
(CEAQ) review, because it is a general administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in
the environment and therefore does not constitute a "project" as defined by CEQA Guidelines Section 15378; and
B. Adopt the attached resolution appointing Tilahun (Abraham) Y. Alemu to serve as the Interim General Manager of
Public Utilities effective May 7, 2019.
Background:
The previous General Manager of Public Utilities resigned from the City of Vernon effective April 4, 2019. In order to
ensure that the Public Utilities Department is not without leadership, to maintain continuity and efficient operations, it is
recommended that Tilahun (Abraham) Y. Alemu be appointed as Interim General Manager, effective May 7, 2019, until
a permanent General Manager is appointed.
Mr. Alemu currently serves in a leadership and management role in the Public Utilities Department as the Integrated
Resources Manager. Mr. Alemu has over 26 years of experience in the Public Utilities Department at the City of
Vernon and has served in several capacities during his professional career, progressing from Electrical Engineering
Assistant, Assistant Power Engineer, Associate Engineer, Resource Engineer, Electric Resources Planning and
Development Manager, and presently Integrated Resources Manager. As such, he is familiar with the intricacies of the
City's infrastructure, internal staff and departmental needs.
Additionally, Mr. Alemu possesses a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, and is registered as a Professional
Engineer in Electrical Engineering which add to his qualifications to serve as Interim General Manager and his ability to
effectively plan, design, implement, and maintain solutions within the Public Utilities Department that directly impact the
residents and businesses of Vernon during this interim period.
Given Mr. Alemu's qualifications, education, work experience, training and familiarity with the Public Utilities
Department's programs, services, policies and procedures, and projects, he is well suited to serve as the Interim
General Manager of Public Utilities.
Fiscal cal Impact:
There is no additional cost to fill this Interim appointment due to current vacancies in the Public Utilities Department.

Agenda Item No. COV-179-2019
Submitted by: Jessica Balandran
Submitting Department: Public Utilities
Meeting Date: May 7, 2019
SUBJECT
Change Order No. 1 to the Construction Contract CS-0636 between the City of Vernon and General Pump Company,
Inc.
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of this action does not constitute a "project" pursuant to section 15378(b)(2) of the Guidelines to
the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA'), because such action constitutes an administrative activity; and even
if the adoption of the proposed item did constitute a project, it would be exempt in accordance with CEQA Guidelines
section 15061(b)(3), the general rule that CEQA only applies to projects that may have an effect on the environment;
and
B. Approve Change Order No. 1 to the Construction Contract with General Pump Company, in substantially the same
form as submitted herewith, to extend the term of the Agreement from January 19, 2019 to July 19, 2019; and
C. Authorize the City Administrator to execute Change Order No. 1 for additional work related to the On Call
Services for the Removal, Repair and Reinstallation of Well and Booster Pump Equipment and Rehabilitation of
Production Wells for Vernon Public Utilities.
Background:
The City of Vernon awarded Construction Contract CS-0636 to General Pump Company (GPC) on January 19, 2016
to assist in providing On -Call Services for the Removal, Repair and Reinstallation of Well and Booster Pump Equipment
and Rehabilitation of Production Wells for the Water Division (when previously managed by the Public Works
Department). GPC is a professional well redevelopment and pump equipment contractor specializing in well evaluation
and rehabilitation and pump equipment evaluation and services.
The initial term of the contract was for three years in an amount not -to -exceed $225,000. $80,991.76 in funding
remains on the contract; however, the contract term ended as of January 19, 2019. At the time the contract was
nearing the end of the term, Vernon Public Utilities (VP" was exploring several different avenues to complete this type
of work and was not planning to renew this type of service arrangement. VPU was focused on constructing two new
wells to add reliable sources of groundwater to an overall aging system and was aiming to solicit competitive proposals
when failures occurred and/or operational issues arose. Due to recent changes in staffing, a reshu$ing of the priorities
for the long term capital improvement plan, and unexpected failures of multiple groundwater wells, VPU believes it is
important to amend the term of the contract to address immediate repair and maintenance issues by utilizing the
remaining funding. During this time, VPU has developed a request for bids for On -Call Well and Booster Pump
Repairs that was issued April 29, 2019, and contains a bid deadline of May 9, 2019. After VPU awards to the most
responsive and responsible bidder, a contract will be in place for these services beginning July 1, 2019, for the term of
one year with a City option to extend the contract for two additional years.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
VPU respectfully recommends that the City Council approve and authorize the City Administrator to execute Change
Order No. 1. The change order has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney's office.
Fiscal Impact:
Change Order No. 1 would extend the term of the Construction Contract by six additional months in order to utilize the
remaining funds of $80,991.76. Funds are available in the approved FY 2018-2019 VPU budget and are budgeted
accordingly in the forecasted FY 2019-2020 budget.

SUBJECT
A Resolution Approving and Accepting the Grant Deed for the Property Located at 4224 District Boulevard
Recommendation:
A. Find that accepting the Grant Deed is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQN) in
accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c) because if any construction occurs as a result of accepting and
executing the Grant Deed, the work would merely involve negligible expansion of an existing street; and
B. Adopt the proposed resolution approving and accepting the Grant Deed for approximately 2,191 square feet of land
located at 4224 District Boulevard and authorizing the Mayor to execute the Certificate of Acceptance.
Background:
As part of property development project, this Grant Deed from Bridge Point Vernon, LLC, a California limited
liability company dedicates to the City of Vernon in fee simple title, a portion of property at 4224 District Boulevard
(Assessor's Parcel Number 6304-027-005 and 015). The dedication is approximately 2,191 square feet in size,
located on the Southwest corner of District Blvd. and Maywood Ave., as well as the West side of Maywood Ave. This
dedication will increase the corner radius at property Tine from 20-feet to 52-feet and will also increase the street width
on portion of Maywood Ave. from 25-feet to 30-feet. There is currently street parking allowed on the East and West
side of Maywood Ave. The street widening will allow for better flow of the two-way traffic. This improvement includes
the relocation of 6 power poles. This right-of-way widening will meet the City of Vernon's Master Plan of Streets and
will be used for street purposes.
The grant deed has been approved as to form by the City Attorney's Office.
Fiscal Impact:
Processing of the Grant Deed has no fiscal impact.

Agenda Item No. COV-173-2019
Submitted by: Brandon Araujo
Submitting Department: Public Works
Meeting Date: May 7, 2019
SUBJECT
A Resolution Authorizing the Use of the Design -Build Capital Project Delivery Method for the Los Angeles River
Closure Devices Project
Recommendation:
A. Find that approval of the Resolution is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA') review,
because approving the method by which a contractor will be selected is an administrative activity that will not result in
direct or indirect physical changes in the environment and therefore does not constitute a "project" as defined by CEQA
Guidelines Section 15378; and
B. Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Use of the Design -Build Project Delivery Method for the Los Angeles River
Closure Devices Project.
Background:
On May 16, 2016, the City of Vernon received a letter from the United States Army Corps Engineers ("USACE')
stating that the City's Section 15 and Section 16 storm drains do not have any closure devices that would prevent water
from the river side outlet from flowing back up the City's storm drains and onto City streets. Section 15 and Section 16
storm drains are located primarily underneath Exchange Avenue and District Boulevard, respectively.
For this project, the design of the closure devices can vary considerably and those design decisions can have a
significant impact on the project's cost, construction duration, and constructability. For these reasons, Public Works
recommends that City Council authorize a Design Build project delivery method. City Council has previously adopted
a resolution authorizing a Design Build project delivery method for the VPU Facility that was once planned at 2716
Leonis Boulevard (Resolution No. 2017-67) .
State law has recently allowed public agencies to procure construction services using a Design -Build project delivery
method instead of the more traditional Design Bid -Build process. The Design -Build project delivery method combines
professional design services and construction services into a single contract with one vendor or team of vendors. This
method has been popular in the private sector for decades but is still relatively new in the public sector. This method is
also particularly well -suited for projects where constructability is significant factor on the design, the choice of design
can have a significant impact on the construction schedule, and the project would benefit from having a contractor
involved in the design from the onset of the project.
Other advantages to using the Design -Build project delivery method include:
• Greater flexibility in the contract award process.
• Having a single entity to hold accountable eliminates the finger -pointing that can often occur between a designer and a
contractor during a typical Design -Bid -Build process.
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
• Fewer change orders.
• Fewer claims.
• Faster project completion.
• Lower project cost.
• Greater cost certainty.
• More opportunity for innovation.
The Design -Build project delivery method is not explicitly sanctioned in Vernon's Competitive Bidding and Purchasing
Ordinance (VMC Chapter 2, Article IV) given the method's relative recent adoption by public agencies. However,
VMC Section 2.17.12 (A) (10) exempts contracts for professional services from competitive bidding. Since the
project involves professional services for the design of the closure devices, Public Works recommends procuring the
services of a design -build entity using a Request for Proposals (RFP). Furthermore, since the design will play a
significant role in the cost and duration of construction and costs can vary widely, the proposals received will then be
evaluated on a competitive, best -value basis.
Since the lowest bid is no longer a consideration in the evaluation of the proposals, the Resolution being considered
establishes the criteria to be used in awarding the Design -Build contract. The criteria as explicitly stated in the RFP for
this project are an evaluation of each proposal based on the following:
Experience (30%): Prior experience designing and constructing closure devices and outlet structures within USACE's
jurisdiction, delivering similar projects on schedule and on budget, and obtaining Section 408 permits from USACE.
Prior experience of key staff assigned to oversee services provided to the City.
Design and Schedule (25%): The quality and ingenuity of the USACE-approved design will be considered. Any design
features that lead to cost savings and/or a decrease in project duration will be valued highly. The Proposer's proposed
project schedule will also be heavily considered.
References (15%): past experience with previous clients and USACE will be considered.
Proposal (10%): quality and responsiveness of the Proposal
Costs and Fees (10%): Cost is not the sole determining factor but will be taken into consideration. Proposer must offer
services at a rate comparable to the rate Proposer offers to other governmental entities for similar work. Offering a
higher rate to the City than the comparable rate is grounds for disqualification of the Proposer. If rates differ for
different types of levels of service, the Proposer should so state.
In -person interview (10%): The three highest -rated proposers may, at the City's option, be invited to attend a
mandatory interview with the City's Evaluation Committee and will be asked a series of questions in order to elicit the
Proposer's understanding of the scope of work and their ability to communicate this understanding effectively. At most,
the three highest rated Proposers will be invited to participate and only those Proposers will be considered for contract
award. All other Proposers will not be considered further in the evaluation process.
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the Resolution authorizing the use of the Design -Build project delivery
method for Los Angeles River Closure Devices project. The proposed Resolution and RFP have been approved as to
form by the City Attorney's office.

4. CITY BACKGROUND
The City of Vernon was founded in 1905, is approximately 5.2 square miles in size and is
located approximately 5 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles California. Over its
long history, Vernon has been developed as an industrial community. At the turn of the
201" century the lands that make up Vernon were comprised largely of farmlands. The
presence of three major rail lines in the area led influential business and property owners
to encourage the railroad companies to run spur lines onto the farmlands. These rail
extensions enabled the creation of an "exclusively industrial" city. By the 1920's, Vernon
was attracting large stockyards and meatpacking facilities. In the 1930's, Vernon became
the location of choice for many heavy industrial plants. As economic conditions changed
over the decades, these large-scale industrial operations have relocated out of Southern
California and Vernon has attracted smaller, lighter industrial facilities. The City's
business -friendly environment, low-cost utilities and key location for trucking and rail
transport continue to position Vernon as an ideal location for industrial uses.
City Government: The City Council consists of five members, elected at -large, who serve
five-year staggered terms. The City Council annually appoints a Mayor and a Mayor Pro
Tern from its own membership to serve one-year terms.
Labor Force: Vernon has approximately 280 employees, and its departments include a
Fire Department, Police Department, Finance Department, Public Works Department,
Public Utilities Department and Health and Environmental Control Department. Present
bargaining units recognized include the Vernon Police Officers Benefit Association,
Vernon Police Management Association, Vernon Firemen's Association, the Vernon Fire
Management Association, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 47, and
Teamsters Local 911.
5. PROJECT BACKGROUND
In a letter dated May 4, 2016, USACE, notified the City that two of the City's storm drains
that drain to the Los Angeles River do not have closure devices that are required by
USACE. Furthermore, USACE informed the City does not have a permit on file for these
storm drains that penetrate the levee of the Los Angeles River. This letter can be found
in Attachment "A" of this RFP. These two storm drains are known as the Section 15 and
Section 16 storm drains per the City's storm drain index map, attached hereon as
Attachment "B."
The as -built plans for the Section 15 and Section 16 storm drains, shown on plans D2029
and D1901, respectively, are attached hereon as Attachment "C."
Per USACE's direction, closure devices must be constructed at the two storm drains per
USACE requirements and a Section 408 permit must be acquired for the two storm drains.
The construction of closure devices at the two locations is complicated by the fact that the
walls of the storm drains' outlet structures are flush with the inner walls of the storm drain

pipe. See Section B-B of D2029, Sheet 3 of 3 and Section B-B of D1901, Sheet 12 of 13
for an elevation view of the outlet structure. The lack of space between the walls of the
outlet structure and the inner walls of the storm drain do not allow for installation of
conventionally available flap gates and warrants a more innovative and thorough design.
The Design -Build Entity's choice of closure device shall not diminish the drainage capacity
of either storm drain system.
6. SCOPE OF WORK

specialized skills to design and construct two closure devices for two of the City's storm
drains that drain into the Los Angeles River. The Work will generally include the

2. Responsible Proposer. A responsible Proposer is a Proposer who has
demonstrated the attribute of trustworthiness, as well as quality, fitness,
capacity, and experience to satisfactorily perform fully the requirements of
the Contract Documents.
3. Competency of Proposers. In selecting the highest -rated Proposer,
consideration will be given not only to the financial standing but also to the
general competency of the Proposer for the performance of the Work
covered by the Proposal including, but not limited to, the experience of the
Proposer in construction of public works for public agencies. By submitting
a Proposal, each Proposer agrees that the City, in determining the
successful Proposer and its eligibility for the award, may consider the
Proposer's experience with similar types of construction projects and
facilities, conduct and performance under other contracts, financial
condition, reputation in the industry, safety record and protocols, and other
factors which could affect the Proposer's performance of the Work.
C. Criteria:
The City will conduct a comprehensive, fair, and impartial evaluation of proposals
received in response to this RFP. All proposals received will be reviewed and
evaluated by a committee of qualified personnel. The name, information, or
experience of the individual members will not be made available to any proposer.
The Evaluation Committee will first review and screen all proposals submitted
according to the weighted criteria set forth below. The criteria will be used in
reviewing and comparing the proposals and in determining the highest -rated
proposal:
Experience (30%): Prior experience designing and constructing closure devices
and outlet structures within USACE's jurisdiction, delivering similar projects on
schedule and on budget, and obtaining Section 408 permits from USACE. Prior
experience of key staff assigned to oversee services provided to the City.
Design and Schedule (25%): The quality and ingenuity of the USACE-approved
design will be considered. Any design features that lead to cost savings and/or a
decrease in project duration will be valued highly. The Proposer's proposed
project schedule will also be heavily considered.
References (15%): past experience with previousast clients and USACE will be
considered.
Proposal (10%): quality and responsiveness of the Proposal
Costs and Fees (10%): Cost is not the sole determining factor but will be taken
into consideration. Proposer must offer services at a rate comparable to the rate
Proposer offers to other governmental entities for similar work. Offering a higher
rate to the City than the comparable rate is grounds for disqualification of the
Proposer. If rates differ for different types of levels of service, the Proposer
should so state.
In -person interview (10%): The three highest -rated proposers may, at the City's
Page 20 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD

Committee and will be asked a series of questions in order to elicit the
Proposer's understanding of the scope of work and their ability to communicate
this understanding effectively. At most, the three highest rated Proposers will be
invited to participate and only those Proposers will be considered for contract
award. All other Proposers will not be considered further in the evaluation
process.

consideration and made allowances for all ordinary delays and hindrances to the Work to be performed
and that he/she will complete the Work within the specified time.
C. Required Contract Completion
Time is of the essence in the completion of this Contract. The Work shall be completed in its entirety
and made ready for service within five hundred forty (540) calendar days following the Date of
Commencement established in the Notice to Proceed ("Contract Time"). By executing the Contract,
Design -Build Entity confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work.
3.02 CITY'S DISCRETION TO EXTEND CONTRACT TIME
In the event the Work required hereunder is not satisfactorily completed in all parts and in compliance with the
Contract Documents, City shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to increase the number of Working Days or
not, as may seem best to serve the interest of City. A change order extending the Contract Time only will be
issued by the City should the City decide to increase the number of Working Days.
3.03 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
A. Design -Build Entity Request for Inspection and Punch List
When the Design -Build Entity considers that it has achieved Substantial Completion of the Work, or
designated portion thereof, Design -Build Entity shall prepare and submit to the Director a request for
inspection and a comprehensive punch list of items to be completed or corrected prior to Final
Payment. Failure to include an item on such punch list does not alter the responsibility of the Design -
Build Entity to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. City Inspection
Upon receipt of the Design -Build Entity's punch list, the Director will make an inspection to determine
whether the Work or designated portion thereof is Substantially Complete. If the inspection discloses
any item, whether or not included on the Design -Build Entity 's punch list, which is not sufficiently
complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the City can occupy or utilize the Work
or designated portion thereof for its intended use, the Design -Build Entity shall, before City's issuance
of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by City.
Page 31 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
The Design -Build Entity shall then submit a request for another inspection by City to determine
Substantial Completion.
C. Certificate of Substantial Completion
When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Director will prepare a
Certificate of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial Completion, shall
establish responsibilities of the City and Design -Build Entity for security, maintenance, utilities,
damage to the Work, and insurance, and shall fix the time within which the Design -Build Entity shall
finish all items on the Design -Build Entity's punch list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties
required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the
Work. Design -Build Entity shall deliver to City all warranty and guarantee documents and policies.
3.04 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME FOR DESIGN -BUILD ENTITY
A. The Design -Build Entity shall take reasonable precautions to foresee and prevent delays to the Work.
In the event of any delay to the Work, the Design -Build Entity shall revise his/her sequence of
operations, to the extent possible under the terms of the Contract, to offset the delay.
B. If any delay to the Work is caused by circumstances within the Design -Build Entity's control, it is not
excusable and not compensable, and the Design -Build Entity will not be entitled to any extension of
time or to any other compensation for damages resulting directly or indirectly therefrom.
C. If any delay having a direct effect on the Work is caused by circumstances beyond the control of the
Design -Build Entity except for causes of delay specified in Paragraph 3.04-D., such delay may be
excusable and may entitle the Design -Build Entity to an equivalent extension of time, but not to any
other compensation. Excusable but not compensable causes include but are not limited to labor
disputes, weather conditions unfavorable for prosecution of the Work, and force majeure.
D. If any delay having a direct effect on the Work is caused by failure of the City to provide information
as specified, or necessary instructions for carrying on the Work, or to provide the necessary right of
way or site for installation, or failure of a utility to remove or relocate an existing facility such delay
may be compensable and may entitle the Design -Build Entity to an equivalent extension of time, and
to compensation for damages resulting directly from any of the causes of delay specified in this
paragraph.
E. The Design -Build Entity shall notify the Director in writing of any delay having a direct effect on the
Work and the causes thereof within 15 days from the beginning of such delay.
Any claim for an extension of time or for compensation for damages resulting from delay shall be
made in writing to the Director not more than 30 days after the ending of such delay. The Design -
Build Entity shall provide a written report evaluating the impact of the delay which shall include, at a
minimum, all of the following:
1. a narrative description of the delay and its impact on the critical path to Substantial Completion of
the Work or a portion of the Work designated by City;
2. a detailed breakdown of the Allowable Costs, if any, sought by Design -Build Entity due to the delay;
3. the number of days of extension sought by Design -Build Entity as an adjustment to the Contract
time;
Page 32 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
4. a statement that Design -Build Entity has complied with the requirements of the General Conditions
for written notice of delays, along with the dates and copies of such notices;
the measures taken by Design -Build Entity and Subcontractors to prevent or minimize the delay;
and
6. the Design -Build Entity's recommendations for reordering or re -sequencing the Work to avoid or
minimize further delay.
No extension of time or compensation for damages resulting from delay will be granted unless the
delay affects the timely completion of the overall Work under the Contract or the timely completion
of a portion of the Work for which a time of completion is specified.
G. The Director will investigate the facts and ascertain the extent of the delay, and his/her findings
thereon shall be final and conclusive.
H. Failure of the Design -Build Entity to give written notice of a delay, or to submit or document a claim
for an extension of time or for damages resulting from delay in the manner and within the times stated
above shall constitute a waiver of all claims thereto.
When a Design -Build Entity experiences two concurrent delays, one compensable and the other
excusable, no compensation other than an extension of time will be allowed.
An extension of time must be approved by the Director to be effective, but an extension of time
whether with or without consent of the sureties, shall not release the sureties from their obligations,
which shall remain in full force until the discharge of the Contract.
3.05 CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
A. The Director may suspend the Work whenever weather conditions or conditions resulting from
inclement weather are unfavorable for the prosecution of the Work. The delay caused by such
suspension may entitle the Design -Build Entity to an extension of time but not to any other
compensation.
B. If the Design -Build Entity believes that Work should be suspended under this Paragraph 3.05, he/she
may request such suspension. The delay caused by such suspension may entitle the Design -Build
Entity to an extension of time but not to any other compensation.
C. No extension of time will be granted for suspension of Work unless the suspension affects the timely
completion of all Work under the Contract or the timely completion of a portion of the Work for which
a time of completion is specified. Determination that the suspension for inclement weather conditions
or conditions resulting from inclement weather affects timely completion and entitles the Design -Build
Entity to an extension of time shall be made and agreed to in writing by the Director and the Design -
Build Entity on each day that Work is suspended. In the event of failure to agree, the Design -Build
Entity may protest under the provisions of Paragraph 7.07.
D. If Work is suspended and an extension of time is granted under this Paragraph 3.05 the Design -Build
Entity will be entitled to a one day extension of time for each day that he/she is unable to Work at
least one-half of his/her current normal Work day; and if the Work is suspended at the regular starting
time on any Work day and the Design -Build Entity's Workforce is dismissed as a result thereof, then
he/she will be entitled to a one day extension of time whether or not conditions change thereafter
and the major portion of the day is suitable for Work.

3.06 COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE
A. Upon request by the Design -Build Entity, the Director shall conduct a final inspection of the Work. If, in
the Director's opinion, Final Completion has been achieved, the Director will accept the Work by issuing
a "Notice of Completion" of the Work to the Design -Build Entity. Upon the issuance of the Notice of
Completion the Design -Build Entity will be relieved from responsibility to protect the Work.
B. Within 15 calendar days after issuing the Notice of Completion, the Director will record the Notice of
Completion with the County Recorder.
3.07 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
A. Design -Build Entity and City agree to liquidate damages in the amount of dollars ($ )
per day, with respect to Design -Build Entity's failure to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work
within the Contract Time. The Parties intend for the liquidated damages set forth herein to apply to this
Contract as set forth in Government Code Section 53069.85. The Design -Build Entity acknowledges
and agrees that the liquidated damages are intended to compensate City solely for the Design -Build
Entity's failure to meet the deadline for Substantial Completion and shall not excuse Design -Build Entity
from liability from any other breach, including any failure of the Work to conform to the requirements of
the Contract Documents.
B. In the event that Design -Build Entity fails to achieve Substantial Completion of the Work within the
Contract Time, Design -Build Entity agrees to pay City the amount specified in the Contract form for
each calendar day that Substantial Completion is delayed.
C. Design -Build Entity and City acknowledge and agree that the foregoing liquidated damages have been
set based on an evaluation of damages that the City will incur in the event of late completion of the
Work. Design -Build Entity and City acknowledge and agree that the amount of such damages are
impossible to ascertain as of the effective date hereof and have agreed to such liquidated damages to
fix City's damages and to avoid later disputes. It is understood and agreed by Design -Build Entity that
liquidated damages payable pursuant to this Agreement are not a penalty and that such amount are
not manifestly unreasonable under the circumstances existing as of the effective date of this
Agreement.
D. It is further mutually agreed that City shall have the right to deduct liquidated damages against progress
payments or retainage and that the City will issue a Construction Change Directive and reduce the
Contract Sum accordingly. In the event the remaining unpaid Contract Sum is insufficient to cover the
full amount of liquidated damages. Design -Build Entity shall pay the difference to City.

ARTICLE 4 - PROJECT SCHEDULES
4.01 BASELINE PROJECT SCHEDULE
The Design -Build Entity shall submit his/her work Baseline Project Schedule, in electronic as well as hard -copy
format, to the Director at the kick-off meeting showing in detail how the Design -Build Entity plans to execute and
coordinate the Work. The project schedule shall show the sequence of work, critical path and estimated time for
completion of each segment of work. This schedule must be reviewed and accepted by the Director before the
Design -Build Entity will be permitted to begin work. In addition, the Design -Build Entity shall submit a detailed
schedule forecasting two (2) weeks of work describing each day's work. This schedule shall be updated and
submitted to the City every other Monday during the project period. The Design -Build Entity shall give 48 hours
notice to the Director prior to the start of the work.
A. Format
At a minimum, the Baseline Project Schedule activities shall be coded on a work discipline basis
and by geographic area or location on the Project. The Baseline Project Schedule shall include a
detailed description of each activity code. The Baseline Project Schedule shall be based on and
incorporate contract milestone and completion dates specified in the Contract Documents. It shall
depict events, jobs, and their interrelationships and shall recognize the progress that must be made
on one task before subsequent tasks can begin. The schedule shall be comprehensive and shall
include all logical interdependencies and interactions required to perform the Work of the Project.
2. Overall time of completion and time of completion for each milestone shown on the Schedule shall
adhere to the specified Contract Time, unless an earlier (advanced) time of completion is
requested by Design -Build Entity, agreed to by the City and formalized by Change Order.
3. Design -Build Entity shall use the latest version of Microsoft Project or equivalent software agreed
to by the parties.
The City will review the submitted Baseline Project Schedule for conformance with these
scheduling requirements. Within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt, the City will accept the
proposed Baseline Project Schedule or will return it with comments. If the proposed Baseline
Project Schedule is accepted by the City, it shall be deemed part of the Contract Documents. If
the Baseline Project Schedule is not accepted by City, Design -Build Entity shall revise the Baseline
Project Schedule, in accordance with the recommendations of the City, and re -submit same for
acceptance, no later than seven (7) calendar days after receipt of said recommendation.
5. Acceptance of Baseline Project Schedule by City, failure to include an element of work, or
inaccuracy in Baseline Project Schedule shall not relieve Design -Build Entity from the responsibility
for accomplishing the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
B. Float
Critical Work activities are defined as Work activities which, if delayed or extended, will delay the
scheduled completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. All other Work activities are
defined as non -critical Work activities and are considered to have float. Float is defined as the
time that a non -critical Work activity can be delayed or extended without delaying the scheduled
completion of the milestones and/or time of completion. Float is considered a Project resource
available to either party or both parties as needed. Once identified, Design -Build Entity shall
monitor, account for, and maintain float in accordance with Critical Path Methodology.
Page 35 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
2. Delays of any non -critical Work shall not be the basis for an extension of Contract Time until the
delays consume all float associated with that non -critical Work activity and cause the Work activity
to become critical.
3. It is acknowledged that City -caused time savings (i.e., critical path submittal reviews returned in
less time than allowed by the Contract Documents, approval of substitution requests which result
in a savings of time for Design -Build Entity, etc.) create shared float. Accordingly, City -caused
delays may be offset by City -caused time savings.
C. Weather (This section applies only to projects of one (1) year duration or longer)
The completion time contemplated by this Contract anticipates ten (10) lost days (Work Days) due to
normal weather conditions annually and prorated for any duration less than twelve months. Only
unusual or extreme weather conditions, as determined by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, for the time of year will be considered as justification for an extension of time to complete
the Project, and only after the ten (10) weather days have been utilized. Annual weather days are not
cumulative, and unused days shall become "float" for the benefit of the project, and the schedule
adjusted accordingly. The use of weather days by the Design -Build Entity shall be subject to all the
conditions of claim for an extension of time. The Design -Build Entity shall notify the City in writing within
ten (10) days of the commencement of each rain event.
D. Early Completion
While the Design -Build Entity may schedule completion of the Project earlier than the date established
by the Contract Documents, no additional compensation shall become due the Design -Build Entity for
the use of float time between the Design -Build Entity's projected early completion date and the date for
Substantial Completion established by the Contract Documents, unless an earlier (advanced) time of
completion is requested by Design -Build Entity, agreed to by the City, and formalized by Change Order.
4.02 SCHEDULE UPDATES
A. With each Application for Payment submitted by Design -Build Entity (other than the final Application for
Payment), the Design -Build Entity shall submit to the City an updated Project Schedule revised to
indicate the Work completed, status of Work in progress, all progress slippages, corrective actions
taken, or slippage carry-over, for all anticipated delays or difficulties, and all other information required
to accurately present the actual status of the progress of the Work as of the date of the Application for
Payment. If the Design -Build Entity does not submit an updated Project Schedule with an Application
for Payment, City may withhold payment, in whole or in part, until the updated Project Schedule is
submitted. In the event that an update to the Project Schedule indicates a delay to the Contract Time
the Design -Build Entity shall propose an affirmative plan to correct each such delay, including overtime
and/or additional labor, if necessary. In no event shall any Project Schedule update constitute an
adjustment in the Contract Time, any deadline, or the Contract Sum unless any such adjustment is
agreed to by the City and authorized pursuant to Change Order or Work Directive.
B. At no time shall historical data contained within the updated Project Schedule (i.e. completed activities)
be removed and/or altered in any way. This historical data is to be preserved within each of the updated
Project Schedules and submitted with the final schedule update to reflect the actual start and finish
dates for each activity within the Schedule.
C. Any work stoppages within individual work activities that exceed seven (7) calendar days in duration
shall be clearly indicated within the updated Project Schedule. In cases where unplanned activity work
stoppages exceed seven (7) calendar days activities shall be added to the Project Schedule to clearly
Page 36 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
indicate the work stoppage period and identify forecasted resumption and completion of the activity
where work has stopped. Design -Build Entity shall clearly note all schedule revisions when Project
Schedule updates are submitted, as required in this Paragraph 4.02 above.
4.03 NONCOMPENSABLE EXTRAORDINARY MEASURES
A. Should the City determine, in its sole judgment, that the performance of the Work has not progressed
to the level of completion required by the Contract Documents, City shall have the right to order the
Design -Build Entity to take corrective measures to expedite the progress of design and/or construction,
at no additional cost to the City, including, without limitation, the following:
1. Working additional shifts of overtime.
2. Supplying additional manpower, equipment, and/or facilities.
3. Reschedule activities to maximize practical concurrence of accomplishment of activities.
4. Submitting a Recovery Schedule discussed above, for resequencing performance of the Work or
other similar measures.
5. Any other actions that may be necessary to mitigate delays.
B. Such Extraordinary Measures shall continue until the progress of the Work is no longer behind schedule
and/or reaches the stage of completion required by the Contract Documents. Design -Build Entity shall
not be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum in connection with the performance of any such
Extraordinary Measures required by the City under this Paragraph. The City may exercise the rights
furnished the City pursuant to this Paragraph as frequently as the City deems necessary to ensure that
the Design -Build Entity's performance of the Work will comply with the Contract Time or interim
completion dates set forth in the Contract Documents. If Design -Build Entity or its Subcontractors fail
to implement or commence Extraordinary Measures within ten (10) calendar days of City's written
demand, City may, without prejudice to other remedies, take corrective action at the expense of the
Design -Build Entity which shall reduce the Contract Sum accordingly.
4.04 CONDITION OF PAYMENT
Compliance by Design -Build Entity with the requirements of the Contract Documents pertaining to preparation,
submission, revising and updating of the Schedule is a condition precedent to City's obligation to make payment
to Design -Build Entity of any or all sums that might otherwise be due to Design -Build Entity in the absence of
such noncompliance. Payment by City under circumstances in which City, for any reason, fails or elects not to
assert its right to withhold payment for noncompliance with this Paragraph shall not be construed as a waiver of
the right to withhold future payments on account of such noncompliance or any other noncompliance.

ARTICLE 5 - SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF CONTRACT
5.01 TERMINATION BY THE DESIGN -BUILD ENTITY
A. Design -Build Entity shall have the right to terminate its performance of the Contract only upon the
occurrence of one of the following:
1. The Work is stopped for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days through no act or fault of the
Design -Build Entity, any Subcontractor, Sub -subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any
other persons or entities performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the
Design -Build Entity, due to:
a. the issuance of an order of a court or other public authority having jurisdiction; or
b. an act of government, such as a declaration of national emergency making material

written notice to City, unless the reason has theretofore been cured, terminate its performance of
the Work.
The Work is stopped for a period of 120 consecutive days through no act or fault of Design -Build
Entity, any Subcontractor, Sub -subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any other persons or
entities performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the Design -Build
Entity, because the City has persistently failed to perform any material obligation under the
Contract Documents and fails to cure such default within ninety (90) days after the receipt of notice
from Design -Build Entity stating the nature of such default.
B. If Design -Build Entity terminates its performance of the Contract in accordance with this Paragraph

Upon that person's appointment, City has, at its option and sole discretion, the right to immediately
cancel the Contract and declare it null and void.
B. City's Rights.
When any of the reasons specified in Paragraph 5.02-A exist, the City may, in addition to and without
prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the City, and after giving the Design -Build Entity five (5)
calendar days written notice, terminate Design -Build Entity's performance of the Work, in whole or in
part, and may:
1. Take possession of the site and all materials, equipment, tools, construction equipment, and
machinery thereon owned by the Design -Build Entity;

set forth in Paragraph 5.04 and Design -Build Entity's remedy for wrongful termination in such event
shall be limited to the recovery of the payments permitted for termination for convenience as set forth
in Paragraph 5.04.
5.03 PARTIAL DELETION OR SUSPENSION OF WORK BY THE CITY
A. Design -Build Entity agrees that the City may determine whether any or all of the Work described in the
Contract Documents shall be deleted or performance suspended without electing to terminate the
Design -Build Entity's performance under the Contract and without any penalty being incurred by the
City.
B. Any such partial deletion or suspension of the Work shall in no way void or invalidate the Contract nor
shall it provide Design -Build Entity with any basis for seeking payment from City for Work deleted or
suspended except to the extent such Work has already been performed and is otherwise compensable
under the Contract.
C. The City shall have the right to later have any such suspended or deleted Work performed by Design -
Build Entity or others without any penalty to the City.
D. In the event of any partial or complete deletion or suspension of Work, the City shall furnish Design -

by the Work Suspension Directive during the period of Work stoppage.
3. Within the period of suspension, or such extension to that period as is agreed upon by Design -
Build Entity and the City, the City shall either cancel the Work Suspension Directive or delete the
Work covered by such Work Suspension Directive by issuing a Change Order or Construction
Change Directive.
4. If a Work Suspension Directive is cancelled or expires, Design -Build Entity shall continue the Work.
A Change Order or Construction Change Directive will be issued to cover any adjustments of the
Contract Sum and Contract Time necessarily caused by such suspension. No adjustment shall be
made to the extent:
(a) That performance is, was, or would have been so suspended, delayed, or interrupted by
another cause for which the Design -Build Entity is responsible; or
(b) That an equitable adjustment is made or denied under another provision of the Contract.
Suspensions for Cause
City has the authority by written order to suspend the Work, in whole or in part, without liability to City
Page 40 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED

Work and shall prevent damage or injury to the Project, provide for drainage, and shall erect necessary
temporary structures, signs or other facilities required to maintain the Project and continue to perform
according to the Contract Documents.
5.04 TERMINATION BY THE CITY FOR CONVENIENCE
A. Grounds
Without limiting any rights which City may have by reason of any default by Design -Build Entity
hereunder, City may terminate Design -Build Entity's performance of the Contract, in whole or in part,
at any time, for convenience upon fifteen (15) calendar days written notice to Design -Build Entity.
B. Design -Build Entity Actions
Upon receipt of such notice, Design -Build Entity shall perform the duties required by Paragraph 5.05
below. At the election of and as directed by the City, any or all of the subcontracts and purchase
orders entered in to by Design -Build Entity prior to the effective date of termination shall be
terminated or shall be assigned to City.
C. Compensation
1. If the Parties are unable to agree on the amount of a termination settlement, the City shall pay
the Design -Build Entity the following amounts:
a. For Work performed before the effective date of termination, the total (without duplication of
any items) of:
The cost of the Work; and
ii. A sum, as overhead and profit on the cost of the Work, determined by the City to be
fair and reasonable. In no event shall Design -Build Entity be entitled to recover
overhead or profit on Work not performed.
b. The reasonable costs of settlement of the Work terminated, including:
Accounting, clerical, and other expenses reasonably necessary for the preparation
of termination settlement proposals and supporting data, if any; and
ii. Storage, transportation, and other costs reasonably necessary for the preservation,
protection, or disposition of inventory.
Page 41 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
2. Such payment shall be Design -Build Entity's exclusive remedy for termination for convenience and
will be due and payable on the same conditions as set forth for final payment to the extent
applicable. Upon receipt of such payment, the Design -Build Entity and City shall have no further
obligations to each other except for Design -Build Entity's obligations with respect to warranties,
representations, indemnity, maintenance of insurance, and other obligations that survive
termination or Final Completion as provided for herein.
3. It is understood and agreed that no fee, anticipated profit, compensation for lost opportunity costs,
or other compensation or payment of any kind or character shall be due or payable for unperformed
Work regardless of the basis of termination and the inclusion of this provision within this
subparagraph shall in no way limit its application to termination under this Paragraph.
4. Design -Build Entity agrees that each of its subcontracts will reserve for the Design -Build Entity the
same right of termination for convenience provided by this Paragraph 5.04.
D. No Consequential Damages
Under no circumstances shall Design -Build Entity be entitled to anticipatory or unearned profits or
consequential or other damages as a result of a termination or partial termination under this Article 5.
The payment to Design -Build Entity determined in accordance with this Article constitutes Design -Build
Entity's exclusive remedy for a termination hereunder.
5.05 DESIGN -BUILD ENTITY'S DUTIES UPON TERMINATION FOR CAUSE OR CONVENIENCE
If the City terminates Design -Build Entity's performance of Work under the Contract, for cause or convenience
or if Design -Build Entity terminates a Subcontractor with the City's approval, Design -Build Entity shall:
(1) cease performance of the Work to the extent specified in the notice;
(2) take actions necessary or that the City may direct, for the protection and preservation of the Work;
(3) settle outstanding liabilities, as directed by City;
(4) transfer title and deliver to City Work in progress, specialized equipment necessary to perform the Work;

ARTICLE 6 — CHANGES
6.01 CITY'S RIGHT TO ORDER CHANGES
The City, without invalidating the Contract, may authorize changes in the Work consisting of additions,
deletions, or other revisions, with the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly, if
necessary. All such changes in the Work shall be authorized by Change Order or Construction Change
Directive and Design -Build Entity shall perform such changes in the Work according to the applicable
requirements of the Contract Documents.
6.02 APPLICABLE PROVISIONS
Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. The Design -
Build Entity shall proceed promptly and diligently with the change, unless otherwise provided in the Change
Order or Construction Change Directive. It is of the essence to this Contract that all scope changes in the
Work that form the basis of an adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time must be authorized in
advance in writing through either a Change Order or Construction Change Directive. A change in the Contract
Sum or the Contract Time shall be accomplished only by Change Order or Construction Change Directive.
Accordingly, no verbal directions, course of conduct or dealings between the Parties, express or implied
acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work, or claim that the Contract has been abandoned or the City
has been unjustly enriched by any alteration or addition to the Work shall be the basis of any claim for an
increase in any amounts due under the Contract Documents or a change in any time period provided in the
Contract Documents.
6.03 NOTICE OF SCOPE CHANGE
Design -Build Entity shall submit written notice of any change in scope to the Director if, in the Design -Build
Entity's opinion, any instruction, request, Drawings, Specifications, action, condition, omission, default, or
other situation occurs that the Design -Build Entity believes constitutes a scope change or other matter
resulting in Extra Work, for which Design -Build Entity believes it is entitled to an adjustment of the Contract
Sum or Contract Time. Such notice shall be provided prior to performance of the Work affected by such
occurrence and within seven (7) calendar days after the discovery date of the circumstances of such scope
change or other matters. The written notice shall state the date, circumstances, extent of adjustment to the
Contact Sum or the Contract Time, if any, requested. The mere presentation of such notice shall not establish
the existence of any right by Design -Build Entity to adjustment of the Contract Sum or Contract Time. Failure
to provide such timely written notice described herein shall constitute a waiver by Design -Build Entity of the
right to any adjustment to the Contract Sum or Contract Time on account thereof.
6.04 CHANGE ORDERS
A. Computation
Methods used in determining adjustments to the Contract Sum by Change Order may include those
listed in Paragraph 6.06 below.
B. Accord and Satisfaction
Agreement on any Change Order shall be a full compromise and settlement of all adjustments to
Contract Time and Contract Sum, and compensation for any and all delay, extended or additional
field and home office overhead, disruption, acceleration, inefficiencies, lost labor or equipment
productivity, differing Site conditions, construction interferences and other extraordinary or
consequential damages (hereinafter called "Impacts"), including any ripple or cumulative effects of
Page 43 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
said Impacts on the overall Work under the Contract arising directly or indirectly from the
performance of Work described in the Change Order. By execution of any Change Order, Design -
Build Entity agrees that the Change Order constitutes a complete accord and satisfaction with
respect to all claims for schedule extension, Impacts, or any costs of whatever nature, character or
kind arising out of or incidental to the Change Order. No action, conduct, omission, product failure
or course of dealing by the City shall act to waive, modify, change, or alter the requirement that (i)
Change Order's must be in writing, signed by the City and Design -Build Entity and; (ii) that such
written Change Orders are the exclusive method for effectuating any change to the Contract Sum
and/or Contract Time.
6.05 CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVE (FIELD DIRECTIVE)
A. A Construction Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a
Change Order. The City may by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract,
order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletion,
or other revisions, the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly.
B. If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment
shall be calculated in accordance with Paragraph 6.06 herein (Pricing Changes in the Work).
C. Upon receipt of the Construction Change Directive, the Design -Build Entity shall promptly proceed
with the change in the Work involved and advise the City of the Design -Build Entity's agreement or
disagreement with the method, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive, for determining
the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time.
D. If Design -Build Entity believes a Construction Change Directive constitutes a basis for adjustment to
the Contract Sum or Contract Time, then Design -Build Entity shall give a Notice of Scope Change
provided in Paragraph 6.03, followed by a submission of a Change Order Request as required by
Paragraph 6.08. Design -Build Entity shall, if requested by City in such Construction Change
Directive or in a subsequent Construction Change Directive, proceed with the performance of the
Work as described in the Construction Change Directive. Failure of Design -Build Entity to proceed
with the performance of Work, as described in the Construction Change Directive shall give the City
the right to carry out the Work, as set forth in Paragraph 2.05.
E. A Construction Change Directive signed by the Design -Build Entity indicates the Design -Build
Entity's agreement therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method
for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a
Change Order.
If the Design -Build Entity does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in
the Contract Sum, the method and the adjustment shall be determined by the City on the basis of
reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change,
including, in the case of an increase in the Contract Sum, Allowable Mark -Ups in accordance with
Paragraph 6.06(E) herein.
6.06 PRICING CHANGES IN THE WORK
A. Alternative Methods of Pricing
The amount of any adjustment by Change Order or Construction Change Directive increasing or
decreasing the Contract Sum shall be determined by the Director using one or a combination of the
following methods:
Page 44 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
Lump Sum. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum proposal from Design -Build Entity properly
itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation. Such proposal
shall be based solely on Allowable Costs, as defined in Subparagraph 6.06-C, and Allowable
Mark -Ups, as defined in Subparagraph 6.06-E, and shall not include any costs or expense that
is not permitted by the terms of any provision of the Contract Documents.
2. Unit Prices. By unit prices contained in Design -Build Entity's original Bid and incorporated in
the Contract Documents or fixed by subsequent agreement between City and Design -Build
Entity. Unless otherwise stated in the Request for Proposals Documents, unit prices stated in
the Contract Documents or agreed upon by the County and Design -Build Entity shall be deemed
to include and encompass all Allowable Markups.
3. Time and Materials. By calculating the actual Allowable Costs directly incurred, plus a sum for
Allowable Mark -Ups on such Allowable Costs.
Deletion of Work. By Unit Prices contained in Design -Build Entity's original Bid and incorporated
in the Contract Documents, or by using the Schedule of Values to determine the value of the
decrease of the Contract Sum, less the value of any Work performed, plus a reasonable
percentage of the decrease for the Design -Build Entity's saved overhead unless the Schedule
of Values allocates general conditions costs to individual line items, in which case no percentage
of the decrease shall be added. When a change consists of both addition and deletion of Work,
the added costs and deleted costs shall be calculated separately, and then added together,
resulting in the net cost for the change. The Allowable Mark -Up shall be applied to this net cost.
B. Design -Build Entity Maintenance of Daily Records for Changes
1. In the event that Design -Build Entity is directed to perform any Extra Work, or should Design -
Build Entity encounter conditions which the Design -Build Entity believes would obligate the City
to adjust the Contract Sum and/or the Contract Time, Design -Build Entity shall maintain detailed
records of the cost of such changes on a daily basis summarized in a daily report supplemented
by back-up records. Such records shall include without limitation:
Labor. At the close of each day on which such Extra Work is performed, Design -Build
Entity shall submit an Extra Work labor report, on forms provided by Director, to
Director that sets forth a list of the actual hours spent in performing the Extra Work,
that clearly differentiates between the labor expended on the Extra Work and other
Work, and the Allowable Costs for such Extra Work performed that day showing the
names of workers, their classifications, hours worked and hourly rates.
Materials, Equipment. A list of Allowable Costs of materials and equipment consumed
in the performance of the Extra Work on the day on which such Extra Work is
performed, together with copies of applicable delivery tickets and unit prices for all
materials and for all equipment used the type of equipment, identification number,
hours of operation (including loading and transportation) and hourly/daily rates involved
for that day.
C. Other Services or Expenditures. A list of other services and expenditures constituting
Allowable Costs incurred in performance of the Extra Work on the day on which such
Extra Work is performed, along with documentation verifying the amounts thereof in
such detail as Director may require.
Page 45 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
2. In the event that more than one change to the Work is performed by the Design -Build Entity in
a calendar day, Design -Build Entity shall maintain separate records of labor, construction
equipment, materials, and equipment for each such change. In the event that any Subcontractor
of any tier shall provide or perform any portion of any change to the Work, Design -Build Entity
shall require that each such Subcontractor maintain records in accordance with this Section.
3. Each daily record maintained hereunder shall be signed by Design -Build Entity; such signature
shall be deemed Design -Build Entity's representation and warranty that all information contained
therein is true, accurate, complete, and relates only to the change referenced therein. All records
maintained by Subcontractors of any tier, relating to the costs of a change in the Work shall be
signed by such Subcontractor's authorized project manager or superintendent.
All such records shall be forwarded to the Director on the day the Work is performed (same day)
for independent verification. The Director shall attempt to review and reconcile costs for
changes on a daily basis. Records not available on the day on which the Extra Work is
performed, such as, but not limited to, material invoices, shall be submitted as soon as they are
available but not later than five (5) calendar days after the earlier of the day of delivery or
incorporation of the particular item of Extra Work at the Site.
The Director may additionally require authentication of all time and material tickets and invoices
by persons designated by the Director for such purpose. In the event that Design -Build Entity
shall fail or refuse, for any reason, to maintain or make available for inspection, review, and/or
reproduction such records, adjustments to the Contract Sum or Contract Time, if any, on account
of any change to the Work may be deemed waived for that day. Design -Build Entity's obligation
to maintain back-up records hereunder is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other Design -
Build Entity obligation under the Contract Documents with respect to changes to the Work.
Waiver by Design -Build Entity. Failure to submit such records as are required by this Paragraph
daily shall waive any rights for recovery of Allowable Costs incurred for Extra Work performed
that day. The failure of the Design -Build Entity to secure any required authentication shall, if the
City elects in its sole discretion to treat it as such, constitute a waiver by the Design -Build Entity
of any right to adjustment of the Contract Sum for the Allowable Cost of all or that portion of the
Extra Work covered by such non -authenticated ticket or invoice.
C. Allowable Costs
The term "Allowable Costs" shall mean in the case of Extra Work actual costs incurred by Design -
Build Entity and/or any Subcontractor, regardless of tier, and necessarily involved in direct
performance of the Extra Work, or in the case of deleted work the actual costs that would have been
incurred in performing deleted work by Design -Build Entity and/or any Subcontractor, regardless of
tier, and shall be limited to the following costs:
Labor. Straight -time wages or salaries, and overtime wages and salaries specifically authorized
by City in writing, for employees employed at the site, or at fabrication sites off the site, in the
direct performance of the Extra Work or that would have been incurred in the direct performance
of the deleted work, based on the actual cost for wages prevailing locally for each craft or type
of workers at the time the Extra Work is done or the deleted work is ordered eliminated. Labor
costs for equipment operators and helpers shall be reported only when such costs are not
included in the invoice for equipment rental. The use of labor classification which would increase
the Allowable Cost for Extra Work will not be permitted unless Design -Build Entity establishes
the necessity for such additional costs.
Page 46 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
Benefits. Payroll taxes, insurance, health and welfare, pension, vacation, apprenticeship funds
and benefits required by lawful collective bargaining agreements for employees on straight -time
wages or salaries, and on overtime wages and salaries specifically authorized by City in writing,
for employees employed at the site, or at fabrication sites off the site, in the direct performance
of the Extra Work or that would have been incurred in the direct performance of the deleted
work.
Materials, Consumables. Costs of materials and consumable items which are furnished and
incorporated into the Work, as approved by City, or that would have been incorporated into the
Work in the case of deleted work shall be at the lowest price available to Design -Build Entity but
in no event shall such costs exceed competitive wholesale prices obtainable from other
Subcontractors, suppliers, manufacturers and distributors in the general vicinity of the site. If
City determines, in its discretion, that the cost of materials is excessive, or if Design -Build Entity
fails to furnish satisfactory evidence of the cost from the actual supplier thereof, then in either
case the cost of the materials shall be deemed to be the lowest wholesale price at which similar
materials are available in the quantities required at the time they were needed. The City
reserves the right to furnish such materials as it deems advisable, and Design -Build Entity shall
have no claim for costs or profits on materials so furnished. Material invoices must be included
with the extra work report to obtain payment.
4. Taxes. Sales taxes on the costs of materials and consumable items described in Paragraph
5.04-C.3 above.
Tool, Equipment Rental. Rental charges for necessary machinery and equipment, whether
owned or hired, as authorized in writing by City, exclusive of hand tools, used directly in the
performance of the Extra Work or that would have been used in the direct performance of the
deleted work. Regardless of ownership, such rental charges shall not exceed the hourly rate
derived from the most recently published "Rental Rate Blue Book for Construction Equipment"
or the "Rental Rate Blue Book for Older Construction Equipment," as published by K-111, San
Jose, California, which is in effect at the time of commencement of the changed work. The
Design -Build Entity shall attach a copy of the rate schedule to the daily reports required by
Paragraph 6.06-B, above. The charges for any machinery and equipment shall cease when the
use thereof is no longer necessary for the Extra Work or deleted work. No charge shall be
allowed for use of equipment or tools which have a replacement value of $500 or less. The
allowable rental rates shall include the cost of fuel, power oil, lubrication, supplies, small tools,
necessary attachments, loading, transportation, repairs and maintenance of any kind,
depreciation, storage, insurance, and all incidentals. Notwithstanding the provisions of
Paragraph 6.06-E below, no mark-up shall be allowed for overhead, profit or bond premiums for
use of equipment if the equipment is supplied by an equipment rental firm. If equipment is used
intermittently and, when not in use, could be returned to its rental source at less expense to City
than holding it at the Site, it shall be returned, unless Design -Build Entity elects to keep it at the
Site at no expense to City. Costs incurred while equipment is inoperative due to breakdowns,
regular maintenance, or for non -Working Days shall not be allowed. The rental time shall include
the time required to move the equipment to the Work from the nearest available source for rental
of such equipment and to return it to the source. If such equipment is not moved by its own
power, then loading and transportation will be allowed. Neither moving time nor loading and
transportation costs will be paid if the equipment is for use on the Project unrelated to the Extra
Work. All equipment shall be acceptable to City, in good working condition, and suitable for the
purpose for which it is to be used.
6. Royalties. Additional or saved costs of royalties due to the performance of the Extra Work or
deleted work.
Page 47 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
7. Insurance, Bonds. Additional or saved costs of insurance and bonds, provided, however, that
for Extra Work such costs shall not exceed one percent (1 %) of Items 1 through 6 above.
D. Costs Not Allowed
Allowable Costs shall not include any of the following:
1. Wages, salaries, fringe benefits and payroll taxes of Design -Build Entity's and all
Subcontractor's non -craft labor (above a Foreman level);
2. Overhead (including home office overhead), administrative or general expenses of any kind
including engineering, estimating, scheduling, drafting, detailing, etc., incurred in connection
with Extra Work;
3. Vehicles not dedicated solely for the performance of the extra of deleted work;
4. Small tools (replacement value not exceeding $500);
5. Office expenses, including secretarial and administrative staff, materials and supplies;
6. On -site and off -site trailer and storage rental and expenses;
7. Site fencing;
8. Utilities, including gas, electric, sewer, water, telephone, telefax, copier equipment;
9. Computer and data processing personnel, equipment and software;
10. Federal, state of local business income and franchise taxes;
11. Losses of efficiency or productivity; and
12. Costs and expenses of any kind or item not specifically and expressly included in Paragraph
6.06-C.
E. Allowable Mark -Up
1. Extra Work by Design -Build Entity (Markup): The following percentages shall be added to the
Design -Build Entity's costs and shall constitute the markup for all overhead and profits:
Labor 33%
Materials 15%
Equipment Rental 15%
Other Items and Expenditures 15%
2. Extra Work by Subcontractor (Markup): When all or any part of the extra work is performed by a
Subcontractor, the markup provided for the Design -Build Entity in 6.06.E.1 shall apply to the
Subcontractor's actual costs. A markup of 5% on the subcontracted portion of each extra work
may be added for the Design -Build Entity.
F. Net Allowable Costs
If anyone scope change involves both Extra Work and deleted work in the same portion of the Work
and the additive allowable costs exceed the deductive allowable costs, the Allowable Markups on
Page 48 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
the Extra Work will be only the difference between the two amounts.
6.07 CITY ORIGINATED REQUEST FOR ITEMIZED CHANGE ORDER PROPOSAL REQUEST
City may issue a Construction Change Directive or other written request to Design -Build Entity describing a
proposed change to the Work and requesting the Design -Build Entity submit an itemized change order
proposal in a format acceptable to City within ten (10) calendar days after City issues the request. The Design -
Build Entity's change order proposal shall include an analysis of impacts to cost and time, if any, to perform
additional work, change Work or delete Work, as applicable, including the effects and impacts, if any, on
unchanged Work, estimates of costs (broken down by the cost categories listed in this Paragraph), and
Design -Build Entity's proposed methods to minimize costs, delay, and disruption to the performance of the
Work. If Design -Build Entity fails to submit a written change order proposal within such period of time, it shall
be presumed that the change described in the City's original proposal request will not result in an increase to
the Contract Sum or Contract Time and the change shall be performed by Design -Build Entity without
additional compensation to Design -Build Entity. City's request for itemized change order proposal request
does not authorize the Design -Build Entity to commence performance of the change. If City desires that the
proposed change be performed, the Work shall be authorized according to the Change Order or Construction
Change Directive procedures set forth herein.
6.08 DESIGN -BUILD ENTITY ORIGINATED CHANGE ORDER REQUEST (COR)
If the Design -Build Entity believes that instructions issued by the City after the effective date of the Contract
will result in changes to the Contract Sum or Contract Time or if the Design -Build Entity otherwise becomes
aware of the need for or desirability of a change in the Work, Design -Build Entity may submit a written Change
Order Request ("COR") to the City in writing, in a format acceptable to City and in accordance with the notice
provisions and other requirements of Article 7 below for Claims. The COR must specify the reasons for the
proposed change, cost impacts and relevant circumstances and impacts on the Project Schedule. The
document shall be complete in its description of the Work, its material and labor quantities and detail, and
must support and justify the costs and credits claimed by the Design -Build Entity. A Critical Path Method
schedule Fragnet is required to support and justify any additional time of performance requested by the
Design -Build Entity. The City will not review any COR which is incomplete. The Design -Build Entity may
request additional compensation and/or time through a COR but not for instances that occurred more than
ten (10) calendar days prior to the notice date. Design -Build Entity's failure to initiate a COR within this ten-
day period or to provide detailed back-up documentation to substantiate the COR within thirty (30) calendar
days of the initial written notice shall be deemed a waiver of the right to adjustment of the Contract Sum or
the Contract Time for the alleged change. Any COR that is approved by the City shall be incorporated in a
Change Order or Construction Change Directive. If the COR is denied but the Design -Build Entity believes
that it does have merit, the Design -Build Entity shall proceed with the disputed Work and may submit a Claim
in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.
6.09 CITY -ORIGINATED UNILATERLA WORK DIRECTIVE (UNILATERAL).
In the event of a dispute as to whether or not Extra Work is required, City shall have the right to unilaterally
issue a Work Directive; Design -Build Entity shall continue performance of disputed Work pending resolution
and shall maintain and submit to City all accounting and cost data necessary to substantiate Design -Build
Entity's cost of such disputed Work.

ARTICLE 7 - CONTRACT PAYMENTS AND CLAIMS
7.01 GENERAL
A. Payment will be made at the price for each item listed on the bidding form or as Extra Work as provided
in the General Conditions.
B. Initial progress payment will not be made prior to approval by the Director of the Schedule of Values,
the Project Progress Schedule, and the Schedule of Submittals.
C. No subsequent progress payment will be made prior to receipt by the Director of the monthly revision
of the Project Progress Schedule.
7.02 SCHEDULE OF VALUES FOR PAYMENTS
A. Submission
Upon City's request, the three (3) highest -rated Proposers shall complete and submit a Preliminary
Schedule of Values, within seven (7) calendar days.
In addition, Design -Build Entity shall complete and furnish within seven (7) calendar days after
receiving the Notice of Award of the Design -Build Agreement a Final Schedule of Values giving a
complete breakdown of the Contract Sum for each component of the Work.
B. Content
The Schedule of Values shall be in sufficient detail as the Director may, in its discretion, deem
necessary to evaluate progress at any point in the performance of the Work. Unless otherwise
specified in the Contract Documents, the Schedule of Values shall include, without limitation, a
breakdown of the general categories of Subcontractor work, direct overhead, profit and contingency,
and a further breakdown of the general categories of Subcontractor work into separate trade line
items of costs for Subcontractor services, labor and material, which is based on actual Subcontractor
contract, subcontract, purchase order or vendor prices. If requested by Director, Design -Build Entity
shall revise the Schedule of Values to allocate sums for Design -Build Entity overhead, profit and/or
contingency among the individual line items for trade portions of the Work. No amounts shall be
reflected in the Schedule of Values or Application for Payment for Extra Work or Deleted Work for
which a Change Order has not been executed by Design -Build Entity and City or for which a
Construction Change Directive has not been issued by City. Amounts that have been mutually
agreed to by Change Order or unilaterally determined by City pursuant to a Construction Change
Directive shall be segregated from the cost of the base Contract Work and separately listed by line
item in the Schedule of Values. The Schedule of Values must be prepared in sufficient detail and
supported by sufficient data to substantiate its accuracy as the Director may require.
C. Applications for Payment
The Schedule of Values, when approved by the Director, shall be used as a basis for Design -Build
Entity's Applications for Payment and may be considered as fixing a basis for adjustments to the
Contract Sum.
D. Revisions
If, at any time, it is determined that the Schedule of Values does not allocate the Contract Sum in a
Page 50 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
manner that reasonably and fairly reflects the actual costs anticipated to be progressively incurred
by Design -Build Entity, it shall be revised and resubmitted for the Director's approval.
7.03 APPLICATIONS FOR PAYMENT
A. Marked Schedule of Values
Five (5) Days prior to the date set forth in Paragraph 7.03-B below for the monthly progress payment
meeting, Design -Build Entity shall submit to Director a copy of the proposed Schedule of Values,
marked to show the percentage of completion certified by Design -Build Entity for each line item in
the Schedule of Values, including any stored materials approved for payment by City pursuant to
Paragraph 7.03-D, below and any withholdings from Design -Build Entity proposed by Director.
B. Monthly Review
For the purpose of expediting the progress payment procedure, Design -Build Entity shall meet with
the Director on or before the twentieth (20th) day of each month to review the Design -Build Entity's
marked Schedule of Values prepared in accordance with Paragraph 7.03-A, above. The Director
shall revise as appropriate and sign the marked Schedule of Values to verify such review. If any item
in the marked Schedule of Values submitted for payment is disputed during this review, Design -Build
Entity agrees to use its best efforts to resolve the disputed items with the Director before submitting
its Application for Payment. If the Director and Design -Build Entity cannot agree, then the percentage
completion shall be established at such percentage as the Director, in good faith, determines is
appropriate to the actual progress of the Work. No inaccuracy or error in the Director's good faith
estimate shall operate to release Design -Build Entity or Surety from any responsibility or liability
arising from or related to performance of the Work. The Director shall have the right subsequently to
correct any error and dispute any item submitted in Design -Build Entity's Application for Payment,
regardless of whether an item was identified as disputed in the review process provided for herein.
C. Certification
Each Application for Payment shall be signed and certified by Design -Build Entity under penalty of
perjury to City that:
1. the data comprising the Application for Payment is accurate and the Work has progressed to
the point indicated;
2. to the best of Design -Build Entity's knowledge, information and belief, the Work is in accordance
with the Contract Documents;
3. Design -Build Entity is entitled to payment in the amount certified; and
4. all sums previously applied for by Design -Build Entity on account of Work performed by
Subcontractors and that have been paid by City have been paid to the Subcontractors
performing such Work, without any retention, withholding or backcharge by Design -Build Entity.
D. Stored Materials
Payments may be made by City, at its discretion, on account of materials or equipment not
incorporated into the Work but delivered on the ground at the Site and suitably stored by Design -
Build Entity or stored off -Site under the control of City. Such payments shall only be considered upon
submission by Design -Build Entity of satisfactory evidence that it has acquired title to same, that the
material or equipment will be utilized in the Work and that the material is satisfactorily stored,
Page 51 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
protected and insured, and that such other procedures are in place satisfactory to City to protect
City's interests. To be considered for payment, materials or equipment stored off -Site shall, in
addition to the above requirements and unless otherwise specifically approved by City in writing, be
stored in a bonded warehouse, fully insured, and available to City for inspection. City shall have sole
discretion to determine the amount of material and equipment that may be stored on the Site at any
given time.
7.04 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
A. Conditions to Progress Payments
Design -Build Entity shall submit its Application for Payment to the Director, using such forms as
required by City, once a month on or before the first (1st) Day of the month following the month in

Any Application for Payment determined not to be undisputed, proper and suitable for payment shall
be returned to Design -Build Entity as soon as practicable, but not later than seven (7) Days, after
receipt by City accompanied by a written explanation of the reasons why the payment request was
rejected. Failure by City or Director to either timely reject an Application for Payment or specify any
grounds for rejection shall not constitute a waiver of any rights by City. Applications for Payment that
are rejected shall be corrected and resubmitted within seven (7) Days after receipt by Design -Build

Subcontractor or any third party rights against City or Director.
B. Withholding/Duty to Proceed
The payment, withholding or retention of all or any portion of any payment claimed to be due and

the Work without reference to the payment, withholding or retention of any payment. The partial
payment, withholding or retention by City in good .faith of any disputed portion of a payment, whether

No payment by City or partial or entire use of the Work by City shall be construed as approval or
acceptance of the Work, or any portion thereof.
D. Design -Build Entity Payment Warranty

claims, security interests or encumbrances imposed by the Design -Build Entity or any other
person.

to release Design -Build Entity from the error, or from losses arising from the Work, or from any
Page 55 of 209

obligation imposed by the Contract Documents. City retains the right to subsequently correct any
error made in any previously approved Application for Payment, or progress payment issued, by
adjustments to subsequent payments.
7.07 PAYMENTS BY DESIGN -BUILD ENTITY
Design -Build Entity shall not include in its Applications for Payment sums on account of any Subcontractor's
portion of the Work that it does not intend to pay to such Subcontractor. Upon receipt of payment from City,
Design -Build Entity shall pay the Subcontractor performing Work on the Project, out of the amount paid to
Design -Build Entity on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the Work, the amount to which said
Subcontractor is entitled in accordance with the terms of its contract with Design -Build Entity and applicable
laws, including, without limitation, California Public Contract Code Section 7107. Design -Build Entity shall
remain responsible notwithstanding a withholding by City pursuant to the terms of these Contract Documents,
to promptly satisfy from its own funds sums due to all Subcontractors who have performed Work that is
included in Design -Build Entity's Application for Payment. Design -Build Entity shall, by appropriate agreement,
require each Subcontractor to make payments to its subcontractors and material suppliers in similar manner.

C. Application of Withholding
City may apply sums withheld pursuant to Paragraph 7.08-A above, in payment of any loss or

payments shall be considered as payments made under Design -Build Agreement by City to Design -
Build Entity. City shall not be liable to Design -Build Entity for such payments made in good faith.

7.09 SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES
A. Public Contract Code
Pursuant to the requirements of California Public Contract Code Section 22300, upon Design -Build
Entity's request, City will make payment to Design -Build Entity of any funds withheld from payments to
ensure performance under the Contract Documents if Design -Build Entity deposits with City, or in
escrow with a California or federally chartered bank in California acceptable to City ("Escrow Agent"),
securities eligible for the investment of State Funds under Government Code Section 16430, or bank
or savings and loan certificates of deposit, interest -bearing demand deposit accounts, standby letters
of credit, or any other security mutually agreed to by the Design -Build Entity and the City, upon the
following conditions:
Design -Build Entity shall be the beneficial owner or any securities substituted for monies
withheld for the purpose of receiving any interest thereon.
2. All expenses relating to the substitution of securities under Public Contract Code Section 22300
and under this Paragraph 7.04, including, but not limited to City's overhead and administrative
expenses, and expenses of Escrow Agent shall be the responsibility of Design -Build Entity.
3. Securities or certificates of deposit substituted for monies withheld shall be of a value of at least
equivalent to the amounts of retention to be paid to Design -Build Entity pursuant to the Contract
Documents.
4. If Design -Build Entity chooses to deposit securities in lieu of monies withheld with an Escrow
Agent, Design -Build Entity, City and Escrow Agent shall, as a prerequisite to such deposit, enter
into an escrow agreement, using the City's form, "Escrow Agreement for Deposit of Securities
in Lieu of Retention."
5. Contactor shall obtain the written consent of Surety to such agreement.
6. Securities, if any, shall be returned to Design -Build Entity only upon satisfactory Final
Completion of the Work.
B. Substitute Security
To minimize the expense caused by such substitution of securities, Design -Build Entity shall, prior to
or at the time Design -Build Entity requests to substitute security, deposit sufficient security to cover the
entire amount to be withheld. Should the current market value of such substituted security fall below
the amount for which it was substituted, or any other amounts which the City withholds pursuant to the
Contract Documents, Design -Build Entity shall immediately and at Design -Build Entity's expense and
at no cost to City deposit additional security qualifying under Public Contract Code Section 22300 until
the current market value of the total security deposited is no less than the amount subject to withholding
under the Contract Documents. Securities shall be valued as often as conditions of the securities
market warrant, but in no case less frequently than once per month.
C. Deposit of Retentions
Alternatively, subject to the conditions set forth in Paragraph 7.04-A above, upon request of Design -
Build Entity, City shall make payment of retentions directly to Escrow Agent at the expense of Design -
Build Entity, provided that Design -Build Entity, City and Escrow Agent shall, as a prerequisite such
payment, enter into an escrow agreement in the same form as prescribed in Part 4 of Paragraph A,
Page 58 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
above. At the expense of Design -Build Entity and at no cost to City, Design -Build Entity may direct
the investment of the payments into securities and interest bearing accounts, and Design -Build Entity
shall receive the interest earned on the investments. Escrow Agent shall hold such direct payments
by City under the same terms provided herein for securities deposited by Design -Build Entity. Upon
satisfactory Final Completion of the Work, Design -Build Entity shall receive from Escrow Agent all
securities, interest and payments received by Escrow Agent from City, less escrow fees and charges
of the Escrow Account, according to the terms of Public Contract Code Section 22300 and the
Contract Documents.
D. Time for Election of Substitution of Securities
Notwithstanding the provision of 7.04 A, B, and C above and California Public Contract Code Section
22300, the failure of Design -Build Entity to request the Substitution of eligible securities for monies to
be withheld by City within ten (10) days of the award of Contract to Design -Build Entity shall be deemed
to be a waiver of all such rights.
7.10 CLAIMS
A. Arising of Claim.

time for performance. Adequate supporting data to a Statement of Dispute submitted by Design -Build
Entity involving Design -Build Entity's compensation shall include a detailed cost breakdown and

as required to demonstrate the grounds for, and precise amount of, the Claim.
B. By City
City's right to commence the Claims Dispute Resolution Process shall arise at any time following the
City's actual discovery of the circumstances giving rise to the Claim. Nothing contained herein shall
preclude City from asserting Claims in response to a Claim asserted by Design -Build Entity. A
Statement of Dispute submitted by City shall state the events or circumstances giving rise to the
Claim, the dates of their occurrence and the damages or other relief claimed by City as a result of
such events.
C. Claims Defined
The term "claims" as used herein shall be as defined in California Public Contract Code §
20104(b)(2).
15.02 CLAIMS DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS
The parties shall utilize each of the following steps in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process in the sequence
they appear below. Each party shall participate fully and in good faith in each step in the Claims Dispute
Resolution Process, which good faith effort shall be a condition precedent to the right of each party to proceed
to the next step in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process.
A. Direct Negotiations
Designated representatives of City and Design -Build Entity shall meet as soon as possible (but not
later than ten (10) Days after receipt of the Statement of Dispute) in a good faith effort to negotiate a
resolution to the Claim. Each party shall be represented in such negotiations by an authorized
representative with full knowledge of the details of the Claim or defenses being asserted by such
party, and with full authority to resolve such Claim then and there, subject only to City's right and
obligation to obtain City Council [or other City official] approval of any agreed settlement or resolution.
In the Claim involves the assertion of a right or claim by a Subcontractor against Design -Build Entity
that is in turn being asserted by Design -Build Entity against City, then such Subcontractor shall also
Page 85 of 209
AGENDA ITEM APPROVED
-05/07/19, SD
have a representative attend such negotiations, with the same authority and knowledge as just
described. Upon completion of the meeting, if the Claim is not resolved, the parties may either
continue the negotiations or either party may declare negotiations ended. All discussions that occur
during such negotiations and all documents prepared solely for the purpose of such negotiations shall
be confidential and privileged pursuant to California Evidence Code Sections 1119 and 1152.
B. Deferral of Claims
Following the completion of the negotiations required by Paragraph 15.02-A., all unresolved Claims,
except those that do not involve parties other than the Design -Build Entity and City, shall be deferred
pending Final Completion of the Work, subject to City's right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to
require that the claims Dispute Resolution Process proceed prior to Final Completion. In the event
that City does not elect to proceed with the Claims Dispute Resolution Process prior to Final
Completion of the Work, all Claims that have been deferred until such Final Completion shall be
consolidated within a reasonable time after such Final Completion and thereafter pursued to
resolution pursuant to the Claims Dispute Resolution Process. Nothing contained in this Article 15
shall be interpreted as limiting the parties' rights to continue informal negotiations of Claims that have
been deferred until such Final Completion; provided, however, that such informal negotiations shall
not be interpreted as altering the provisions of this Article 15 deferring final determination and
resolution of unresolved Claims until after Final Completion of the Work.
C. Legal Proceedings
If the Claim is not resolved by direct negotiations, then the party wishing to further pursue resolution
or determination of the Claim shall submit the Claim for determination by commencing legal
proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction.
15.03 NO WAIVER
Participation in the Claims Dispute Resolution Process shall not constitute a waiver, release or compromise of
any defense of either party, including, without limitation, any defense based on the assertion that the rights of
Design -Build Entity that are the basis of a Claim were previously waived by Design -Build Entity due to failure to
comply with the Contract Documents, including, without limitation, Design -Build Entity's failure to comply with
any time periods for providing notices or for submission or supporting documentation of Claims.

fact conform to the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding any such measurement, estimate or certificate, or
payment made in accordance therewith, City shall not be precluded or estoppel from recovering from Design -
Build Entity and its Sureties such damages as City may sustain by reason of Design -Build Entity's failure to
comply or to have complied with the Contract Documents.

section, paragraph or part, which shall, to the greatest extent legally permissible, effect the original intent of the
parties, including an equitable adjustment to the Contract Price to account for any change in the Work resulting
from such invalidated portion; and (b) if necessary or desirable, apply to the court or other decision maker (as
applicable) which declared such invalidity for an interpretation of the invalidated portion to guide the
negotiations. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such clause, provision, section, paragraph or part shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of the balance of the Contract, which shall be construed and enforced as
if the Contract did not contain such invalid or unenforceable clause, provision, section, paragraph or part.
17.14 HEADINGS
The captions of the sections of the Contract are for convenience only and shall not be deemed part of the
Contract or considered in construing the Contract.
17.15 ENTIRE AGREEMENT

hereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, statements, representations and negotiations
between the parties with respect to its subject matter.

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