Approve the draft letter in support of Representative Aguilar’s proposed “Supporting our Shelters Act” 2. Authorize the City Manager to send the letter in support of the “Supporting our Shelters Act” to the United States Congress Executive Summary The Federal ”Supporting our Shelters Act”, proposed by Representative Pete Aguilar would establish a source of Federal Funding to support animal shelters. This funding would help all shelters provide programs and services for all animals in their care. Background The City of San Bernardino (City) is currently home to 223,230 persons and approximately 57% of households in the City own a pet. According to a Pew Research Center study released in July 2023, 97% of pet owners in the United States believe their pets are part of their family. Studies have proven pet ownership can have positive impacts on health for both pets and people. Discussion Pets are a vital part of our communities, however, funding for shelters is inconsistent throughout the country. Municipal shelters like the City’s rely on local funding, grant funding from private and public organizations as well as private donations to cover the       Packet Page. 24 cost of programs and services to the community. Having a source of federal funding to help local organizations support their residents and their pets is crucial to the continued health and wellbeing of our citizens and their companion animals. The legislation proposed by Representative Aguilar would establish Federal Grant Funding for Animal Shelter Programs like ours. If signed into law, we would be eligible to apply for and receive grant funding to support the pets and people in our City. This funding would be crucial in helping the City expand access to spay/neuter as well as other programs that would strengthen the human-animal bond in our region and lead to a healthier community for all. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals The request for support of this Act aligns with Key Target No. 2: Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community by documenting support for proposed Federal Legislation which could benefit our community.

Additionally,       Packet Page. 30 1 6 1 6 there are times, because of the execution of various judicial orders, the City must utilize vendors to adequately secure the respective structure(s) through efficient and effective means. The Code Enforcement Division's budget provides for contracts that conduct abatement services that include securing and cleaning properties. The on-call board up and property cleanup services are utilized by Code Enforcement for securing locations with broken windows or doors and dispensary board-ups. With the City’s On-Call Professional Services Agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. ending on June 30, 2023, a Request for Quote was released that same month seeking proposals for board-up and securement abatement services. Discussion On June 6, 2023, Request for Quote F-23-50 (RFQ F-23-50) was published seeking bids to ensure compliance with the City's regulation for on-call board-up and abatement services. One contractor responded to bid F-23-50: Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc., the bid packet scope of work and responses are attached hereto as Attachment 2. Staff has reviewed all contents of the bid package and confirmed that Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. is the only responsive and responsible bidder. Also, after evaluations of overall bid specifications, Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. demonstrated high ratings in their quality, quantity, and delivery of all on-call services. If awarded by the Mayor and City Council, on-call board-up services are anticipated to begin November 2023. During the last fiscal year, the Code Enforcement Division aggressively responded to over 4,000 annual Code Enforcement requests that include board-ups and abatements of numerous properties, both residential and commercial. Therefore, to maintain the City's ability to effectively abate nuisances, the Community and Economic Development Department is requesting approval to award one vendor, Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. with a single year contract in the amount not to exceed $200,000. Additionally, staff is seeking approval to allow for a two one-year renewal options through FY 2025/2026 at the city’s discretion for a total annual amount for each option year not to exceed $200,000, subject to available funds. Costs associated with boarded up and/or abated property are billed to the property owner. If the timely payment is not received, a lien is recorded against the respective property. Over time, it is expected that the City will fully recover the property abatement costs. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals The on-call board-up and abatement service contracts align with Key Target No. 3: Improved Quality of Life. Specifically, 3d: Improve the City’s appearance, cleanliness, and attractiveness. Board up and abatement services utilize City programs to reduce crime and ensure that neighborhoods and business areas are safe.       Packet Page. 31 1 6 1 6 Fiscal Impact There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. Funding for these agreements was included in the FY 2023/24 Adopted Budget. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, 1. Approve the award of a Professional Service Agreement with Eagle Eye Demolition, Inc. for on-call board-up and securement abatement services. 2.

Montoya, City Manager; Mary Lanier, Interim Director of Community Development and Housing Department:Community Development and Housing Subject:Accept The Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Round 3 Grant Funds from the County of San Bernardino in the amount of $808,358.87. Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-160, to accept the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP 3) Round 3 Grant funding awarded to the City of San Bernardino through the County of San Bernardino, Office of Homeless Services; 2. Approve the execution of the HHAP 3 Grant Agreement between the City of San Bernardino and the San Bernardino County Office of Homeless Services as the Administrative Entity authorized to act on behalf of the County; 3. Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to amend the FY2023/24 Adopted Budget for the HHAP Round 3 Grant, appropriating $808,385.87 in both revenues and expenditures; and 4. Authorize the City Manager or designee to take any further actions and execute any further agreements or documents as necessary to effectuate the administration of the HHAP 3 Grant. Executive Summary       Packet Page. 56 1 6 8 0 On September 25, 2023, the County of San Bernardino’s Continuum of Care (COC) awarded the City $808,358.87 through the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP 3) Round 3 Grant to help operate its permanent navigation center to assist unhoused men and women with interim housing and wrap-around supportive services. The HHAP 3 Grant contract term is October 3, 2023, to June 30, 2026. There is no fiscal impact to the City for accepting the HHAP 3 award. Background The Homeless Coordinating and Financing Council (HCFC) released a Notice of Funding Availability on December 17, 2021, for Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention (HHAP 3) Round 3 grant funding. HHAP 3 is a $1 billion block grant program authorized by AB 140 (Health & Safety Code § 50218.6, et seq.), which was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom on July 19, 2021. The City applied through the County's COC for the Central Valley Region. HHAP 3 is designed to build on regional coordination developed through previous rounds of the Homeless Emergency Aid Program (HEAP), HHAP, and COVID-19 funding. HHAP 3 funds should be used to continue to build regional coordination and a unified regional response to reduce and end homelessness informed by a best-practices framework focused on moving homeless individuals and families into permanent housing and supporting the efforts of those individuals and families to maintain their permanent housing. Residents see the devastating effects homelessness has on individuals and the community and desire an effective and compassionate solution. Successful mitigation of homelessness will require the commitment of both the City and County because each entity is responsible for different aspects of the solution, with the County primarily being responsible for mental health, general health, and social services. To ensure positive outcomes, both the City and County will need to work together to establish multi-year funding to help streamline and expedite responses to homelessness. Including monitoring, applying, and evaluating additional funding sources as they become available through the COC. Discussion This HHAP 3 award will provide the City with financial assistance to operate a 200-bed, permanent, year-round, low-barrier navigation center to assist unhoused men and women. The scope of work for the permanent navigation center will include the following: •Case Management •Substance Use Counseling •Behavioral Health Services •Physical Health Services •Housing Navigation/Tenancy Support •Life Skills Training/Financial Literacy Classes       Packet Page. 57 1 6 8 0 •Rental & Utility Assistance (for those at risk of homelessness) •Pet Care •Assistance with Documentation Readiness, and •Help with Income Stabilization •Assistance with Public Benefit Application •Job Readiness Training/Job Placement The HCFC strongly encourages applicants to prioritize the use of HHAP 3 funds to assist people experiencing literal homelessness to move into safe, stable housing, including innovative, interim housing. HHAP 3 funding should be housing-focused -- either funding permanent housing interventions directly or, if used for shelter or street outreach, having clear pathways to connect people to permanent housing options. The term of the HHAP 3 contract becomes effective October 3, 2023, and expires June 30, 2026, but may be terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions outlined in the HHAP 3 Contract. The support through the Continuum of Care from the County, with HHAP 3 funds, will contribute towards operational costs associated with operating the City’s permanent navigation center. The Housing Division will continue to monitor future funding opportunities through the Continuum of Care. This is aligned with the Homelessness State of Emergency Implementation Plan. Mayor, City Council, and City Manager Goals and Objectives Expanding accessibility to shelter and housing will improve the quality of life for unhoused residents. Utilizing HHAP 3 funds aligns with Strategic Target No. 3: Improved Quality of Life. Fiscal Impact There is no General Fund impact with this item. The FY2023/2024 budget will be amended by $808,385.87 for the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention Program. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1. Adopt Resolution No. 2023-160, to accept the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP 3) Round 3 Grant funding awarded to the City of San Bernardino through the County of San Bernardino, Office of Homeless Services; 2.

SB HOPE Campus will resemble an actual campus and have four distinct components: •Interim Housing •Recuperative Care/Medical Respite •Onsite Supportive Services, and •Animal Kennel Unlike a traditional shelter, SB HOPE Campus will have day center type qualities as participants will not be forced back out into the community each day. Instead, occupants can remain in the center to work on their individualized case plans. This model will help to reduce homeless foot traffic in community and reduce the spread of COVID-19. The interim housing component aligns with CDC guidelines as occupants will be assigned to a single, double, or family occupancy unit depending on status. CDC's interim guidance for homeless persons living on the street recommend the use of motel or private rooms versus congregate shelters to help reduce the spread of COVID-19. SB HOPE Campus's unique and innovative design for interim housing will allow occupants a level of privacy, comfort and security in their assigned room or family unit. Scope of Services Along with interim housing, SB HOPE Campus will include an on-site medical clinic and a variety of on-site supportive services including: •Case Management •Substance Use Counseling •Behavioral Health Services •Physical Health Services •Housing Navigation/Tenancy Support •Life Skills Training/Financial Literacy Classes •Rental & Utility Assistance (for those at risk of homelessness) •Pet Care •Assistance with Documentation Readiness, and •Help with Income Stabilization o Assistance with Public Benefit Application o Job Readiness Training/Job Placement       Packet Page. 92 Revised 06/23/2023 Page 31 of 38 EXHIBIT 3 – HHAP REPORTING REQUIREMENTS A.Detailed reports containing, at minimum, the following information: 1.

For purposes of this chapter: (a) “Council” means the California Interagency Council on Homelessness, formerly known as the Homeless Coordinating and Financing Council established pursuant to Section 8257. (b) “Core components of Housing First” means all of the following: (1) Tenant screening and selection practices that promote accepting applicants regardless of their sobriety or use of substances, completion of treatment, or participation in services. (2) Applicants are not rejected on the basis of poor credit or financial history, poor or lack of rental history, criminal convictions unrelated to tenancy, or behaviors that indicate a lack of “housing readiness.” (3) Acceptance of referrals directly from shelters, street outreach, drop-in centers, and other parts of crisis response systems frequented by vulnerable people experiencing homelessness. (4) Supportive services that emphasize engagement and problem solving over therapeutic goals and service plans that are highly tenant-driven without predetermined goals. (5) Participation in services or program compliance is not a condition of permanent housing tenancy. (6) Tenants have a lease and all the rights and responsibilities of tenancy, as outlined in California’s Civil, Health and Safety, and Government codes. (7) The use of alcohol or drugs in and of itself, without other lease violations, is not a reason for eviction. (8) In communities with coordinated assessment and entry systems, incentives for funding promote tenant selection plans for supportive housing that prioritize eligible tenants based on criteria other than “first-come-first-serve,” including, but not limited to, the duration or chronicity of homelessness, vulnerability to early mortality, or high utilization of crisis services. Prioritization may include triage tools, developed through local data, to identify high-cost, high-need homeless residents. (9) Case managers and service coordinators who are trained in and actively employ evidence- based practices for client engagement, including, but not limited to, motivational interviewing and client-centered counseling. (10) Services are informed by a harm-reduction philosophy that recognizes drug and alcohol use and addiction as a part of tenants’ lives, where tenants are engaged in nonjudgmental communication regarding drug and alcohol use, and where tenants are offered education regarding how to avoid risky behaviors and engage in safer practices, as well as connected to evidence-based treatment if the tenant so chooses.       Packet Page. 97 Revised 06/23/2023 Page 36 of 38 (11) The project and specific apartment may include special physical features that accommodate disabilities, reduce harm, and promote health and community and independence among tenants. (c) “Homeless” has the same definition as that term is defined in Section 91.5 of Title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations. (d) (1) “Housing First” means the evidence-based model that uses housing as a tool, rather than a reward, for recovery and that centers on providing or connecting homeless people to permanent housing as quickly as possible. Housing First providers offer services as needed and requested on a voluntary basis and that do not make housing contingent on participation in services. (2) (A) “Housing First” includes time-limited rental or services assistance, so long as the housing and service provider assists the recipient in accessing permanent housing and in securing longer term rental assistance, income assistance, or employment. (B) For time-limited, supportive services programs serving homeless youth, programs should use a positive youth development model and be culturally competent to serve unaccompanied youth under 25 years of age. Providers should work with the youth to engage in family reunification efforts, where appropriate and when in the best interest of the youth. In the event of an eviction, programs shall make every effort, which shall be documented, to link tenants to other stable, safe, decent housing options. Exit to homelessness should be extremely rare, and only after a tenant refuses assistance with housing search, location, and move-in assistance. (e) “State programs” means any programs a California state agency or department funds, implements, or administers for the purpose of providing housing or housing-based services to people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, with the exception of federally funded programs with requirements inconsistent with this chapter.

Genoveva Rocha, CMC, City Clerk       Packet Page. 130 1 6 4 9 CONSENT CALENDAR City of San Bernardino Request for Council Action Date:November 1, 2023 To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members From:Charles A. Montoya, City Manager Suzie H. Soren, Director of Human Resources Department:Human Resources Subject:Professional Services Agreement with AdminSure for Workers' Compensation Third Party Administrator Services Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a Professional Services Agreement with AdminSure for workers’ compensation claims administrator services. Executive Summary Staff prepared a Request for Proposal (RFP) for workers’ compensation third party administrator services which garnered seven responses. The proposals were evaluated and AdminSure was selected as the most qualified respondent. Background In July of 2017, The Mayor and City Council approved an agreement with AdminSure for workers’ compensation third party administrator (TPA) services. After five years with the current TPA, staff determined that it would be consistent with best practices to request proposals to compare costs and TPA providers. Staff released an RFP that garnered seven proposals from the respondents listed below. The proposals were evaluated by staff from the Human Resources Department, the San Bernardino Water Department, and the Police Department. The cost of the contract and the quality of claims services to be provided were considered in determining the most qualified respondent. RFP Respondent Group Score AdminSure 74 EK Health Services 33 Innovative Claims Strategies 55       Packet Page. 131 1 6 4 9 Lien On Me 52 Encompass Health Solutions 45 Tristar 70 Acclamation Insurance Management Services 67 AdminSure demonstrated the highest level of services and at a very competitive annual administrative price with fixed claim services fees. Although price is not the exclusive consideration in evaluating companies, staff believes AdminSure will provide outstanding workers’ compensation claim management services, and most importantly, a high level of customer service to City employees. Therefore, AdminSure was selected as the most responsive bidder. The existing contract with AdminSure expired on June 30, 2023. AdminSure has provided services to date to allow for the RFP process to be completed. This contract date of the Professional Services Agreement is July 1, 2023 to ensure continuity of service. Discussion AdminSure was distinguished from the other TPA providers because of its experience with full-service municipal agencies including public works and safety services. AdminSure’s integrated model offers the City stability in managing its program through a single vendor which minimizes service disruptions to staff, employees, and most importantly, the injured worker by providing a single point of contact. During the interview process it was clear that AdminSure’s approach to service is client-based and client-focused. Further, they provided achievement methods that are easily measured, managed, and understood. This can be exceedingly difficult to obtain with the complicated cost associated with a worker’s compensation program.

Montoya, City Manager Lydie Gutfeld, Director of Parks, Recreation & Community Services Department:Parks & Recreation & Community Services Subject:Accept the Anonymous Donation of $40,000 for the Verdemont Community Center Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, adopt Resolution No. 2023-171 to: 1.Authorize City Manager to accept the Anonymous Donation in the amount of $40,000, and 2.Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to amend the FY2023/24 General Fund Operating Budget in both revenue and expenditures by $40,000; and allocate the expenditures to the following, Senior Programming at the Verdemont Community Center ($10,000), Movies in the Parks at Verdemont ($10,000) and After School Homework Help ($20,000). Executive Summary The City received a donation from Anonymous donor, in the amount of $40,000 to be used to subsidize programming and event costs at Verdemont Community Center. Specifically senior programming, movies in the parks at Verdemont and the after- school homework help at the community center. Background The Verdemont Community Center continues to grow its participation rate while functioning out of a small trailer. The Verdemont Community Center was built in 2011       Packet Page. 164 and in 2016 the building was closed and demolished; a rental half the size was placed in the area. To continue programming, options were decreased; this reduction in program and activity options prompted community members to approach the Director of Parks, Recreation and Community Services (PRCS) with the anonymous donation to be specifically earmarked for Senior programs, afterschool homework help, and additional movies in the park events to be held at Al Guhin Park. Discussion In 2022, the department increased staffing levels and implemented new programming in and outside the Verdemont Community Center at Al Guhin Park. Community members have responded to programming efforts and staff are working to provide a more consistent and positive recreational experience. While efforts inquiring about a larger space for the community center are in the works, this donation of $40K will assist in growing the programs and events that this community is seeking. The donation has specifically been identified and three target areas to be enhanced: 1. $10,000 for senior programming. Funds will allow for additional opportunities for social interaction and stimulating activities that promote social and emotional wellness. 2. $10,000 for family movies in the park. Funds for movie licensing fees and supplies to host at least five more events at Al Guhin Park. 3. $20,000 for after-school homework help. Funds for educational supplies for staff to assist with daily homework assignments, projects, and relevant STEAM activities, and to offset the cost of subscriptions and licensing for online learning platforms. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals This request aligns with Strategic Target No. 2.b. Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community – Build a culture that attracts, retains, and motivates the highest quality talent. Fiscal Impact $40,000 in revenues and expenditures will be appropriated into the General Fund FY2023/24 Operating Budget. There is no additional General Fund impact with this item.

Montoya, City Manager; Ernesto Salinas, Acting Director, Public Works Department:Public Works Subject:Amendment No. 1 to Agreement with Environmental Project Services, Inc. (All Wards) Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1.Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Maintenance Services Agreement with Environmental Project Services, Inc. for Concrete Maintenance Services; and 2.Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to issue a purchase order in the amount not to exceed $2,000,000. Executive Summary A purchase order in the amount not to exceed $2,000,000 is being requested for concrete maintenance services with Environmental Project Services, Inc. These services are utilized for City wide sidewalk maintenance and repair. This reflects an increase of $1,000,000 from the current purchase order amount. Background The Department of Public Works, Operations and Maintenance Division, is responsible for all sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and cross gutters, as keeping them in good repair is essential to the safety of the public. On March 16, 2022, the Mayor and City Council was presented with a staff report recommending the issuance of an annual purchase order for $1,000,000 for concrete maintenance services with the low bidder, Environmental Project Services Inc. (EPS). At that meeting, the Mayor and City Council approved the recommendation, which authorized the execution of an agreement with Environmental Project Services,       Packet Page. 170 Inc. and the issuance of an annual purchase order in the amount of $1,000,000. On June 21, 2023, the Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No 2023-080 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative Services to allocate $3,000,000 of the General Fund balance designated as the “Capital Contingency Reserve” for street segment repairs and sidewalk projects. From that amount, $1,000,000 has been set aside for additional sidewalk projects. Discussion The City's Public Works Department has contracted-out sidewalk and gutter concrete repair services for several years and has been limited to work within a $1,000,000 cap. However, in recent years, the City has had significant increases in its concrete maintenance needs, particularly in terms of sidewalk maintenance. Repairing City sidewalks and gutters are a quality-of-life issue for the City's residents and a liability issue for the City. The repairs that need to be made will vary; for example, they may involve a relatively simple replacement of a section or might consist of complex and/or larger concrete repairs. In other words, some repairs may involve lengthier stretches of sidewalk while others may involve complex repairs that involve matching curbs and gutters to existing forms. In an effort to improve the City infrastructure and prevent potential legal claims from injuries resulting from broken or missing sidewalks, Staff is requesting an additional increase of $1,000,000 for concrete services. This increase will provide an opportunity for the Department to maintain, upgrade, and repair sidewalks, curbs, and gutters, and significantly reduce the amount of open work order requests which currently total 405 requests. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals This project is consistent with Key Target No.1d: Minimize risk and litigation exposure. Approval of this recommendation will significantly reduce the risk of potential liability, and significantly reduce the amount of open work order requests. Fiscal Impact Therre is no General Fund impact with this action. The Purchase order amount of $2,000,000. was included in the FY 2023/24 budget. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1.Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Maintenance Services Agreement with Environmental Project Services, Inc. for Concrete Maintenance Services; and 2.Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to issue a purchase order in the amount not to exceed $2,000,000.       Packet Page. 171 Attachments Attachment 1 Amendment No. 1 to Maintenance Services Agreement Attachment 2 Maintenance Services Agreement - Environmental Project Services Ward: All Wards Synopsis of Previous Council Actions: June 21, 2023 Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-080 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative Services to allocate $3,000,000 of the General Fund balance designated as the “Capital Contingency Reserve” for street segment repairs and sidewalk projects.

Montoya, City Manager; Ernesto Salinas, Acting Director, Public Works Department:Public Works Subject:Amendment No. 1 to Agreement with Horizons Construction Company International (All Wards) Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Maintenance Services Agreement with Horizons Construction Company International for Asphalt Maintenance and Repair Services; and 2. Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to issue a purchase order in the amount of $2,450,000. Executive Summary A purchase order in the amount of $2,450,000 is requested for Asphalt Maintenance and Repair Services with Horizons Construction Company International. These services are utilized for City wide street maintenance and repair. This request reflects a $2,000,000 increase to the current purchase order. Background The Operations and Maintenance Division (O&M) of the Public Works Department is responsible for the maintenance, repair, and clean-up of City-owned infrastructure and rights of way. In collaboration with the Engineering Division of Public Works, the Division is also responsible for ensuring the City’s streets, street medians, islands, curbs and related infrastructure are properly maintained, inspected, repaired, and painted/marked as needed. General maintenance and minor repair of asphalt streets (such as pothole filling or small segment repairs) is largely performed through in-house staff. Larger repairs (to include full street rehabilitation and slurry seals) are managed       Packet Page. 194 by the Engineering Division. On February 1, 2023, the Mayor and City Council were presented with a staff report recommending the issuance of an annual purchase order for $450,000 for Asphalt Maintenance and Repair Services with the low bidder, Horizons Construction Company International. At that meeting, the Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No. 2023-021 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative Services to amend the FY 2022/23 General Fund Operating Budget, execute an agreement with Horizons Construction Company International and issue an annual purchase order in the amount of $450,000. On June 21, 2023, the Mayor and City Council adopted Resolution No 2023-080 authorizing the Agency Director of Administrative Services to allocate $3,000,000 of the General Fund balance designated as the “Capital Contingency Reserve” for street segment repairs and sidewalk projects. Of that amount, $2,000,000 was earmarked for street segment repairs and related maintenance. Discussion The City of San Bernardino has nearly 1,300 lane miles (574 center lane miles) of streets requiring routine inspection, maintenance, and repair. Routine repairs performed by O&M division staff generally involve traditional pothole patching, hot patch segment repairs and minor street shoulder repairs. Larger repairs and full street rehabilitation are managed by the City Engineer using contractual forces and are typically part of the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Medium-sized repairs of asphalt street segments, however, have been identified as an area requiring additional resources and contractual support. Medium-sized repairs are typically defined as repairs which go beyond traditional pothole patching and may require hot patch asphalt segment repairs beyond 10 feet by 10 feet in size. These repairs may also include repairs to sections of asphalt streets that are deteriorated (alligatored) to the point that traditional pothole patching has no effect. Deterioration of street segments is often referred to as “alligatored” because of the unique appearance of the asphalt surface that resembles the pattern of an alligator’s skin (see Attachment 3). It is important to note that these repairs are not meant to provide a long-term solution, but, rather, provide a short-term solution while a street is awaiting a full rehabilitation. As a result of an increase in medium-sized repairs throughout the City, the O&M Division began looking into alternatives designed to properly address such repairs in a more efficient, quicker, albeit short-term manner. They found that such repairs are best performed by contractors who can provide a variety of asphalt repair services a la carte, rather than taking on larger projects (such as full street rehabilitations) which may take years to complete. Similar in concept to contractual sidewalk repairs (which are beyond the scope of in-house staff), staff determined this was a feasible alternative that will provide a quicker response to alligatored and/or deteriorated street segments while the street awaits a full replacement.       Packet Page. 195 To ensure our City conducts timely and first-rate repair of deteriorated street segments, staff is requesting a revised purchase order in the amount $2,450,000 be established under this maintenance services agreement. This reflects an increase of $2,000,000 from the original amount of $450,000. Staff anticipates this increase will expedite the repair of streets that have potholes and deterioration that go beyond traditional pothole patching repairs. 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals This project is consistent with several City goals and targets. It is aligned with Key Target 1e: Minimize risk and litigation exposure. Approval of this agreement will reduce the risk of potential liability associated with tort cases and significantly reduce the amount of open work order requests. It is also aligned with Key Target 3c: Constantly evaluate public safety service delivery models to enhance the quality of service. Fiscal Impact The total General Fund impact is $2,450,000. $2,000,000 has been appropriated to the FY 2023/24 operating budget for street segment repairs. Additionally, a purchase order was established in FY 2023/24 in the amount of $450,000 that is being carried over into FY 2023/24. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California: 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Maintenance Services Agreement with Horizons Construction Company International. for Asphalt Maintenance and Repair Services; and 2. Authorize the Director of Finance and Management Services to issue a purchase order in the amount of $2,450,000.

Unfortunately, asphalt is not foolproof and will sustain damage over time. This damage is most represented in the form of potholes. Potholes, however, are not the only type of surface damage on asphalt streets and the suggested repairs will vary depending on the desired outcome and desired timespan. The below table describes the type of asphalt surface damage and suggested methods of repair (whether temporary or longer term). Type Description and Suggested Method of Repair Asphalt Cracks Most common type of pavement damage. Vary in size but most are thin and may run deep into the surface of the asphalt pavement. These are typically resolved with a process called crack-sealing. If left unrepaired, it may lead to large potholes or full street deterioration which would require street resurfacing. Potholes The most commonly-reported asphalt damage by residents and motorists, potholes occur when cracks grow large enough to allow water to seep into the asphalt and break it apart. This results in large or small holes in the surface (sometimes, deep into the sublayers of the street). Potholes are generally repaired with asphalt mix (hot or cold) depending on size and depth. Pothole repairs are always temporary and will usually return if the pavement is not resurfaced. Rains will generally cause potholes to reappear (especially once the weather warms up). Alligatoring Alligatoring is typically the result of the expansion or contraction of asphalt due to weather/temperature changes. As its names implies, the surface of the street will resemble the scales of an alligator. If left untreated, it can result in large segments of asphalt deterioration. Resurfacing or hot mix-segment repairs are effective options although completely rehabilitating the street section is best. Ruts Ruts are best described as deep depressions (dips or mounds) in the middle of the pavement or near the edges. They are typically caused by heavy loads and/or excessive traffic volume. Most ruts are found near industrial areas where large trucks are common or at bus stop intersections. Ruts may be repaired with grinding and resurfacing treatments but are best resolved with a full rehabilitation of the street segment. Raveling Raveling occurs when asphalt particles flake off the surface of the asphalt pavement. Once the top layer wears off and the underlying aggregate is exposed, decreased traction will become common and further deterioration of the surface will occur. Raveling may be repaired with a resurfacing treatment but it is important that it be caught early on. Hot mix segment repairs may be a good option.       Packet Page. 225 1 9 6 2 Images of Type of Asphalt Damages Asphalt Cracks Alligatoring Traditional Pothole       Packet Page. 226 1 9 6 2 Ruts Raveling       Packet Page. 227 DISCUSSION City of San Bernardino Request for Council Action Date:November 1, 2023 To:Honorable Mayor and City Council Members From:Charles A. Montoya, City Manager Suzie H. Soren, Director of Human Resources Department:Human Resources Subject:Proposed Administrative Policy Establishing the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) for the Offices of Elected Officials (All Wards) Recommendation: It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, review and consider the proposed administrative policy and provide direction for modifications or adopt Resolution No. 2023-172 as presented establishing the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) – Offices of the Elected Officials Policy. Executive Summary On April 19, 2023, the Mayor & City Council unanimously voted to have the administrative policy establishing the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) for the Offices of Elected Officials brought forward for consideration. The policy will outline the process for requesting, onboarding, and offboarding volunteers (including interns) in the Offices of the Mayor and City Council. Establishing the policy has no financial impact to the City. Background The City of San Bernardino is a charter city operating under a council-manager form of government. The City Charter is the document adopted by voters that defines the organization, powers, functions and essential procedures of the city government and the Municipal Code contains the local laws and regulations adopted by the Mayor and City Council that establish zoning and development standards, traffic regulations, administrative standards and the like. In addition to the City Charter and Municipal Code, it is important for the City to implement policies and procedures that establish the controls needed to ensure that City employees and elected and appointed officials are able to operate under a clear       Packet Page. 228 set of guidelines that align with the laws and regulations that govern the City. On February 3, 2021, the Mayor and Council provided conceptual support for the development of a comprehensive administrative policy manual. On July 21, 2021, the Mayor and City Council did not take action on the MVP policy pertaining to the Offices of Elected Officials. On April 19, 2023, the Mayor and City Council unanimously voted to have the policy brought forward for consideration again. Discussion The Municipal Volunteer Program is the perfect opportunity for the community to get involved in civic activities. Volunteers are an important part of any organization and a valuable asset to the City. Volunteers help to increase responsiveness, delivery of services and information input, and provide new program opportunities. A volunteer is an individual, including an unpaid intern, who performs a service for the City without promise, expectation, or receipt of compensation for services rendered. Accordingly, a policy establishing a uniform method for the management of City volunteers to ensure consistency is recommended. This policy will only apply to volunteers in the Offices of the Mayor and City Council and does not apply to volunteers working on a one-day assignment for a community clean-up, park improvement project, or similar activity that does not extend beyond a single day of service. Recruitment, Selection, and On-Boarding To begin the recruitment process or to request a volunteer position, a Volunteer Requisition Form (VRF) will need to be submitted to the Human Resources Department for processing. The VRF will be submitted and will list the duties and responsibilities assigned to the volunteer, the duration of assignment, and the supervising City employee responsible for the oversight of the volunteer. A background investigation will be conducted on each volunteer before on-boarding with the City. A volunteer may not begin their assignment without completing the required paperwork including a volunteer release and waiver of liability form and a confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement to protect the City’s interests. Once the volunteer is clear for on-boarding with the City, staff shall submit to the Human Resources Department the Volunteer Access List (VAL) form identifying the information technology and phone access levels requested for the volunteer. Tools and equipment including the office space required for the volunteer will need to be included in the department’s existing authorized budget. Supervision of Volunteers Each volunteer who is accepted to a position with the City must have a clearly identified supervisor who is a City employee and will be responsible for direct management and oversight of that volunteer. The supervisor is responsible for scheduling the volunteer’s       Packet Page. 229 hours while keeping the safety of the volunteer a top priority. It is important to consider the nature of the work volunteers are performing and how much attention each requires when determining the number of volunteers assigned to each supervisor. The nature of the work being performed and how much attention it requires in conjunction with supervisors’ existing deliverables and priorities should govern the number of volunteers assigned. Special Considerations To ensure that the City is able to provide the necessary oversight and support for volunteers working with the offices of the Mayor and City Council, this policy establishes limits for the number of assigned volunteers supporting each of our elected officials. Under the MVP – Offices of Elected Officials policy, each Council member and the Mayor will be limited to one (1) volunteer at any given time. Additionally, to avoid any conflicts with the Political Reform Act and the use of City facilities and resources for political purposes, a City volunteer working in an elected official’s office cannot simultaneously work (or volunteer) on the elected official’s campaign. End of Assignment At the end of the assignment the Offices of the Mayor and City Council will notify the Human Resources Department and submit a VAL form to turn off all access levels to the City’s systems and process any other necessary paperwork such as the Department of Justice forms to end the subsequent notifications of any activity associated with the volunteer 2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals Approval of this administrative policy aligns with Key Target No. 2: Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community by establishing clear and concise procedures for staff and elected officials to follow that promote a professional environment and contribute toward a culture that attracts, retains, and motivates the highest quality talent. Fiscal Impact There is no financial impact associated with the development of an administrative policy beyond dedicated staff time, City equipment and/or work space. Conclusion It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, review and consider the proposed administrative policy and provide direction for modifications or adopt Resolution No. 2023-XXX as presented establishing the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) – Offices of the Elected Officials Policy.

Authority: Resolution No. ______________ Scope: Unless otherwise stipulated herein, this policy applies to all volunteers working in the offices of elected officials within the Office of the Mayor and the City Council Office. Qualified volunteers are used for specified tasks and duties to create efficiencies and improve services to the community. Volunteers are an important part of any organization and are a valuable asset to the City. Volunteers help to increase responsiveness, delivery of services and information input, and provide new program opportunities. In addition, volunteers bring new skills and expertise to the City and prompt new enthusiasm. A volunteer is an individual, including an unpaid intern, who performs a service for the City without promise, expectation, or receipt of compensation for services rendered. Exemption from Scope None Policy: Recruitment & Equal Opportunity Volunteers may be recruited on a continuous and ongoing basis. To begin the recruitment process a Volunteer Requisition Form (VRF) shall be submitted to the Human Resources Department for processing. The VRF form will be signed by a department head or designee and shall include the duties and responsibilities assigned to the volunteer, the anticipated duration of the assignment, and the supervising City employee responsible for oversight of the volunteer.       Packet Page. 235 Procedure for the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) City of San Bernardino - Administrative Policy Manual Community members are encouraged get involved in civic activities through volunteer opportunities with the City. A primary qualification for participation in the process should be an interest in, and an ability to assist the City in serving the public. All parties should understand that the recruitment of volunteers is enhanced by creative and interesting assignments. The City affords equal opportunity to all qualified volunteers, and prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, religious creed, disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age (40 and over), sexual orientation, or military and veteran status or other basis protected by law. Background Investigation A background investigation will be conducted on each volunteer before onboarding with the City. The investigation may include references and background information, including criminal records of individual candidate’s consistent with applicable state and federal laws and regulations. The volunteer will not be privy to any information revealed during the course of the background investigation or receive feedback about the investigation. Any false statement, either written or verbal, will cause the volunteer’s name to be removed from consideration for the volunteer program and will be cause for immediate dismissal if an appointment has been made. Selection and Placement Service as a volunteer with the City will begin with an official notice of acceptance or appointment to a volunteer position. Notice may only be given by an authorized representative of the City. No volunteer will begin any assignment until they have been officially accepted for a position and completed all required screening and paperwork, including but not limited to a volunteer release and waiver of liability. Volunteers should be placed only in assignments or programs that are consistent with their knowledge, skills, abilities and the needs of the City. The department head or designee shall submit to the Human Resources Department, the Volunteer Access List (VAL) form inclusive of the department head’s signature identifying the information technology and phone access levels requested for the volunteer. Tools and equipment including the office space required for the volunteer will need to be included in the department’s existing authorized budget. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure All volunteers are required to abide by the same standards of confidentiality and non- disclosure required by employees of the City. With appropriate clearance, volunteers       Packet Page. 236 Procedure for the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) City of San Bernardino - Administrative Policy Manual may have access to confidential, sensitive, or privileged information or materials. Unless otherwise directed by a supervising City employee, all such information shall be considered confidential. Only that information specifically identified and approved by authorized personnel will be released. The use of any confidential, sensitive, or privileged materials, and removing materials or reproductions is strictly prohibited, except as required in the rightful discharge of the duties performed by the volunteer. Each volunteer will be required to sign a nondisclosure agreement before being given an assignment. Subsequent unauthorized disclosure of any confidential information, verbally, in writing or by any other means, by the volunteer is grounds for immediate removal. Additionally, the City may seek other criminal or civil sanctions or damages allowed by law. Supervision of Volunteers Each volunteer who is accepted to a position with the City must have a clearly identified supervisor, a City employee, responsible for direct management and oversight of that volunteer. The supervisor is responsible for scheduling the volunteer’s hours while keeping the safety of the volunteer a top priority, will be responsible for day-to-day management and guidance of the work of the volunteer, and should be available to the volunteer for consultation and assistance. A volunteer may be assigned and act as a supervisor of other volunteers provided that the supervising volunteer is under the direct supervision of a City employee at all times. Following are some considerations to keep in mind while supervising volunteers: (a) Take the time to introduce volunteers to employees on all levels. (b) Ensure volunteers have work space and necessary office supplies. (c) Make sure the work is challenging. Do not hesitate to give them an assignment or task that will tap these valuable resources. It is important to consider the nature of the work volunteers are performing and how much attention each requires when determining the number of volunteers assigned to each supervisor. For example, assignments with high degrees of collaboration and interaction might productively tolerate no more than one or two volunteers. The nature of the work being performed and how much attention it requires in conjunction with supervisors existing deliverables and priorities should govern the number of volunteers assigned.       Packet Page. 237 Procedure for the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) City of San Bernardino - Administrative Policy Manual Mayor and City Council Special Considerations In order to ensure that the City is able to provide the necessary oversight and support for volunteers working with the offices of the Mayor and City Council this policy establishes limits for the number of assigned volunteers supporting each of our elected officials. Under this policy, each Councilmember and the Mayor will be able to have one (1) volunteer at any given time. Additionally, in order to avoid any conflicts with the Political Reform Act and the use of City facilities and resources for political purposes, a City volunteer working in an elected official’s office cannot simultaneously work (or volunteer) on the elected official’s campaign. Property and Equipment Volunteers will be issued an identification card that must be worn at all times while onsite or performing the duties of their assignment with the City. Volunteers shall not maintain they represent the City in any matters outside the scope of their assignment, and will be identified as City volunteer in all communications. If a working title is used, the title will include the volunteer designation for enhanced transparency. For example, if the volunteer is an office worker then title used by the volunteer would be “VOLUNTEER Office Worker.” All property and equipment will need to remain onsite or under the supervision of the City employee. Volunteers shall not be allowed to drive City vehicles or drive their personal vehicle for City business. Fitness for Duty No volunteer shall report to their assignment when their judgment or physical condition has been impaired by alcohol, medication, and other substances. Dress Code Volunteers are responsible for presenting a professional image to the community. Volunteers shall dress appropriately for the conditions and performance of their duties. End of Assignment Any fixed and portable equipment issued by the City is for official and authorized use only. Any property or equipment issued to a volunteer will remain the property of the City and shall be returned at the end of the assignment to the volunteer supervisor.       Packet Page. 238 Procedure for the Municipal Volunteer Program (MVP) City of San Bernardino - Administrative Policy Manual Procedure: Responsibility Action Requesting Department 1.
