TITLE: Professional Services Agreement with Gonzalez Goodale Architects - City Yards
Consolidation, Phase 1 Conceptual Design
ABSTRACT:
Upon the recent completion of a quality based selection process, Gonzalez Goodale Architects were
deemed the most qualified to provide design services for the consolidation of the City's Utility and
Corporation Yards. Staff is recommending that the City enter into an agreement for conceptual design
services for the City yard consolidation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Professional Services Agreement with Gonzalez Goodale Architects, and authorize the Mayor
and the City Clerk to execute the agreement.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this purchase.
DISCUSSION:
The Municipal Operations Department (MOD) consists of two operational divisions, General Services and
Utilities. The General Services Division is housed at the City's Corporation Yard at 592 Superior Avenue (8
acre site) and is responsible for maintaining and operating public infrastructure including streets, parks,
beaches, storm drains, refuse collection, street trees, City facilities, and fleet maintenance. The Utilities
Division is housed at the City's Utilities Yard at 949 W. 16th Street (6.5 acre site) and is responsible for the
operation and maintenance of the City's water, wastewater, oil wells, and street lighting.
At the direction of the City Council, staff has been exploring the use of contract services to reduce
personnel costs while maintaining current service levels. The City has been successful in reorganizing
staff and utilizing contract services. To date, landscape maintenance, street sweeping, underground utility
TV inspection services, streetlight maintenance, and refuge collection are under private contracts.
As a result of these past actions, the required space for maintenance yard uses has been reduced to a
point where a combined yard is possible. With the continued operation of the refuse transfer station at the
Superior yard, consolidation at the Superior Avenue site is the recommended location. The consolidation
of the two yards at the Superior Avenue site will improve operational abilities of the Municipal Operations
Department as well as free up land at the 16th Street site for other uses such as the future West Newport
Community center. Preliminary analysis of the space requirements also indicate that the potential future
relocation of the Police Department may also fit into the Superior Avenue site.
The City has conducted a needs assessment for the current and future operations of the Municipal
Operations Department and is poised to begin the conceptual design of a consolidated facility. The design
of the new facility will accommodate the current and future organization and will reflect the following MOD
goals:
The facility design shall accommodate and support continuing efforts to create a smaller and smarter
team of dedicated maintenance professionals that can provide essential services and manage contract
services in an open and collaborative environment.
The facility must be cost effective, flexible and highly adaptable to enable staff to deliver high quality
services to the community with the right tools and resources.
• Facilities shall incorporate operational efficiencies, energy conservation, principles of sustainable design
and Green Building standards.
Staff conducted a quality -based selection (QBS) process to determine the most qualified firm to provide
design services for the project from concept to construction completion. A request for qualifications was
sent out into the architectural design community and the City received 11 responses.
The staff selection committee evaluated all of the submittals and selected 4 finalists for interviews. At the
conclusion of the interviews, staff determined Gonzalez Goodale Architects as the most qualified firm for
this project. The work scope of the project will be performed in three phases; conceptual design (pre -
design, program confirmation, site master planning), project design, and construction support. At this time,
staff proposes to move forward with the conceptual design phase only.
The first phase will include all work to provide pre- design, program confirmation, and master planning for
the site resulting in conceptual plans, budget, and schedule for the project. The master planning will
include the appropriate consolidation of the MOD divisions and identify opportunities for the future
relocation of the Police department. Subsequent project design phases will be negotiated at the
conclusion of the previous phase and brought to City Council for approval.
The total project cost of design will likely range between 5% and 8% of the construction cost. The
projected construction cost is unknown at this time, however, a preliminary budget and schedule will be
established at the conclusion of the conceptual design phase. Staff will present the proposed preliminary
budget and schedule along with the proposed concept to City Council for direction. The work will be
performed on a time and material basis at a cost not to exceed $92,000. The proposed fee also includes
an allowance of up to $7,000 for street level rendering, if required.
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).

limited by statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No
civil service status or other right of employment shall accrue to Consultant or its

pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation
against City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees

recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers
from each of its subconsultants.

following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Consultant 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 and other
endorsements as specified herein for each coverage. Insurance
certificates and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk Manager

Gonzalez/Goodale Architects Page C -2
Consultant of non - compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
D. 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
Consultant maintains higher limits than the minimums shown above, the
City requires and shall be entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained
by the Consultant. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the
specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to
the City.
E. 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.
F. City Remedies for Non - Compliance. If Consultant or any subconsultant
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 Consultant'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 Consultant or
reimbursed by Consultant upon demand.
G. 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.
H. Consultant's Insurance. Consultant shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
