TITLE: Approval of Amendment No. One to Agreement with Mariposa
Landscapes, Inc. for Landscape Services for Parks and Facilities.
ABSTRACT:
An amendment to the current agreement with Mariposa Landscapes, Inc., is proposed
to allow them to perform additional tree planting services for the Municipal Operations
Department.
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 Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. for landscape
services for parks and facilities and tree planting at various City locations, increasing
the compensation by to $6,823,000 for the first 3 years of the contract, and
respectively to $2,496,460, $2,546,899.20, and $2,547,837.18 for each of the three
optional extension years, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the
amendment.
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.
DISCUSSION:
The current contract for landscape services for parks and facilities with Mariposa
Landscapes, Inc. was executed on November 24, 2015 with a yearly not -to -exceed
amount of $1,975,000. The initial expiration for this agreement is December 31, 2018

with the option for three additional one-year extensions. The agreement covers services
ranging from turf mowing, weeding, fertilization, pruning, litter pick up, and plant
replacement.
The current agreement does not include funds within the "Not to Exceed" (NTE) limits
for tree planting. Due to NTE issues incurred in the Great Scott Tree Service, Inc.
contract, staff desires to utilize Mariposa for additional tree planting services. Mariposa's
current agreement includes language regarding the requirement of prevailing wage, and
has since its inception.
Among other planting projects, Mariposa Landscapes has demonstrated quality tree
planting in City parks and facilities over the course of their agreement. They have
sufficient equipment, staffing and supervision to ensure efficient service delivery. They
also have a breadth of nursery vendor contacts that allow them to supply a wide range
of tree species and sizes.
Mariposa's current agreement, however, does not include follow up care for tree
planting. When our tree contractor plants trees in a parkway, the cost includes watering
for one year. This allows the contractor to check the health of the tree on a regular
basis, and ensure the tree gets frequent deep watering. Taking these extra steps helps
the long term viability of the tree, which may not occur if the tree is dependent on the
homeowner's irrigation system and watering frequency. Consequently, an amendment
to the agreement is provided which details the tree planting requirements and provides
unit cost pricing for full tree planting services.
To cover these additional services, the Municipal Operations Department is requesting
the not -to -exceed amount be increased each year, starting with 2017. Municipal
Operations Department thus recommends Amendment No. One be executed for the
remainder of term and extensions of the agreement to include tree planting services
with a total amount not -to -exceed $6,823,000 for the first three years, and respectively
$2,496,460, $2,546,899.20, and $2,547,837.18 for each of the three optional extension
years.
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.

insured against an insured or additional insured under the policy.
4. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to

following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance
to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along
with a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation

Insurance certificates and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk
Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification
of insurance shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of
this Agreement. City reserves the right to require complete, certified
copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Riqht to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Contractor sixty (60) calendar days
advance written notice of such change. If such change results in
substantial additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may
renegotiate Contractor's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Contractor agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Contractor enters
into contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review.
Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any
liability on City, or its employees. Contractor shall require and verify that
all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements
stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional
insured on insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,
subcontractors shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as
CG 20 38 04 13.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Amendment No. One Page C-3
Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no
additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting_. Requirements of specific coverage features
or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Contractor maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits
maintained by the Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in
excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall
be available to the City.
F. Self-insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared
to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-
insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible.
Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements
unless approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Contractor or any subcontractor
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Contractor's right to proceed
until proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by
City shall, at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to
Contractor or reimbursed by Contractor upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Contractor's performance under this Contract, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City
assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but
not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they
are likely to involve City.
I. Contractor's Insurance. Contractor shall also procure and maintain, at
its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its
own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and
prosecution of the Work.

3700 of the Labor Code.
Contractor shall submit to City, along with the certificate of insurance, a
Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of City, its City Council,

pollutants. The CPL shall also provide coverage for transportation and
off -Site disposal of materials. The policy shall not contain any provision
or exclusion (including any so-called "insured versus insured" exclusion
or "cross -liability" exclusion) the effect of which would be to prevent, bar,
or otherwise preclude any insured or additional insured under the policy
from making a claim which would otherwise be covered by such policy
on the grounds that the claim is brought by an insured or additional
insured against an insured or additional insured under the policy.
4. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to
contain, the following provisions:
A. Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured

otherwise in legal control of the property upon which Contractor
performs the Project and/or Services contemplated by this Agreement

5. Additional Agreements Between the Parties. The parties hereby agree to the
following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance
to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along
with a waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation

Insurance certificates and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk
Manager prior to commencement of performance. Current certification
of insurance shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of
this Agreement. City reserves the right to require complete, certified
copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Contractor sixty (60) calendar days
advance written notice of such change. If such change results in
substantial additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may
renegotiate Contractor's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Contractor agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Contractor enters
into contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review.
Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any
liability on City, or its employees. Contractor shall require and verify that
all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements
stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional
insured on insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,
subcontractors shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as
CG 20 38 04 13.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Mariposa Landscapes, Inc. Amendment No. One Page C-3
Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no
additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features
or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on
coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage
normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given
coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a
given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the
Contractor maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits
maintained by the Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in
excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall
be available to the City.
F. Self-insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared
to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-
insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible.
Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements
unless approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Contractor or any subcontractor
fails to provide and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall
have the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to
terminate this Agreement, or to suspend Contractor's right to proceed
until proper evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by
City shall, at City's sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to
Contractor or reimbursed by Contractor upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely
notice of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from
Contractor's performance under this Contract, and that involve or may
involve coverage under any of the required liability policies. City
assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but
not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they
are likely to involve City.
I. Contractor's Insurance. Contractor shall also procure and maintain, at
its own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its
own judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and
prosecution of the Work.
