RECOMMENDATION: a) Determine that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because it will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly; and b) Approve Amendment No. One with Park West Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for landscape maintenance of medians and roadsides, increasing the compensation limits by $2,037,791 for an additional year, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this purchase. It will be expensed to the appropriate accounts in the Municipal Operations Department. 12-1 Approval of Amendment No. One to Agreement with Park West Landscape Maintenance, Inc. for Landscape Maintenance of Medians and Roadsides September 12, 2017 Page 2 DISCUSSION: The current contract for landscape maintenance of medians and roadsides with Park West Landscape was executed on October 29, 2014 for a total amount not to exceed $5,500,000. The agreement covers services ranging from plant replacement to weeding, fertilizing, mowing and irrigation maintenance and repair on medians and roadsides throughout the City, and at certain facilities in Newport Coast. The initial expiration for this agreement is November 30, 2017 with the option for three additional one-year extensions. Park West Landscape has agreed to extend the agreement for one additional year, changing the expiration date to November 30, 2018. The agreement includes a fixed yearly maintenance cost of $1,482,234 plus an additional allowance for as -needed services. The agreement is also subject to a maximum annual CPI increase of 2.5%. The additional services performed include irrigation repairs, damage from traffic accidents, and regular plant replacement. During the three year term of the agreement, Park West has also been tasked with performing extra work such as replacing plants damaged on the West Coast Highway median during the Orange County Sanitation District project (with costs reimbursed by OCSD) and doing small median turf replacement projects, such as the mixmaster on Balboa Boulevard. Based on these numbers, MOD has expended approximately $4,930,520 towards this contract as of July 7, 2017. Thus, in order to proceed with the one-year extension, MOD is requesting the not -to -exceed amount be increased $2,037,791 to fund the normally scheduled services and extra work through November 30, 2018. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly. NOTICING: The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).
