Webb, Public Works Director - 949-644-3311, dawebb@newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Michael J. Sinacori, Assistant City Engineer msinacori@newportbeachca.gov PHONE: 949-644-3342 TITLE: Approval of On -Call Beach Maintenance and Hauling Services Agreements with Tight Quarters and GCI Construction ABSTRACT - Following a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) procurement process, staff seeks City Council approval for two, on -call contracts for beach maintenance and hauling services. The City of Newport Beach (City) uses service agreements to perform maintenance and repairs throughout Newport Harbor and along City beaches. Current agreements for these services expired in November 2022. A Request for Proposals solicitation was issued to obtain new proposals to continue performance of these services. Staff requests City Council approval of Beach Maintenance and Hauling Services Agreements with Tight Quarters, Inc. and with GCI Construction, Inc. Each agreement will have a five-year term and a total not -to -exceed limit of $2,000,000. RECOMMENDATIONS: a) Find this project exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because this action will not result in physical changes to the environment, directly or indirectly; and b) Approve Beach Maintenance and Hauling Services Agreements with Tight Quarters, Inc. and GCI Construction, Inc. in a form approved by the City Attorney, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign each agreement. Each on -call agreement is for a five-year term and carries a not -to -exceed cap of $2,000,000. DISCUSSION: The Public Works Department manages sand maintenance efforts for the City's ocean beaches and bay beaches within Newport Harbor, including any capital project needs and emergency work. Normal routine ocean beach sand maintenance and grooming services are performed by City staff. However, larger scale sand maintenance operations involving specialized equipment and more staff resources require the assistance of outside contractors. 9-1 Approval of On -Call Beach Maintenance and Hauling Services Agreements with Tight Quarters and GCI Construction April 25, 2023 Page 2 Increased contract services have been required over the past many years to address and keep up with storm damages and increased beach erosion throughout the roughly seven miles of City -managed oceanfront beaches. Additionally, contract services have been needed for grooming and hauling sand to maintain a desirable beach slope into the ocean appropriate for public access; repositioning wind built-up sand from along homes, boardwalks and walkways and street; maintaining protective sand berms; regional permit work in the harbor needed to maintain harbor beaches; as well as hauling services to remove storm debris from oceanfront and harbor beaches. A new Request for Proposals for on -call beach maintenance and hauling services was released to the public on March 3, 2023. Seventy-five vendors were notified of the opportunity. Only two firms submitted proposals; Tight Quarters, Inc. and GCI Construction, Inc. Both contractors are experienced in providing beach maintenance and hauling services, are qualified to perform the wide array of services required by the City, and are properly licensed and insured to perform the work. References provided positive feedback when contacted regarding their experience with the contractors. Additionally, the recommended contractors have both previously performed work for the City with positive project history attested to by the coordinating departments. Rates for both firms are competitive with contractors performing similar work. Given both firms are highly capable and experienced firms and the ongoing needs of the City, staff recommends selection of both firms for on -call beach maintenance and hauling services. Also, staff anticipates the need for having two on -call firms which will provide greater responsiveness for winter storm recovery and repairs, as well as necessary emergency response efforts. Each agreement is recommended for a not -to -exceed expenditure amount of $2,000,000 over the five-year contract term. The not -to -exceed amounts were determined by analyzing expenditure history from both firms and projecting increased future usage across the five-year term with the types of activities that each firm provides the City. Over the past five years, the City has expended approximately $3,000,000 in sand maintenance, hauling and emergency services, including the July 3, 2020 large -wave event that inundated the Balboa Pier parking lot and the Balboa Peninsula. With this year's storm impacts and next year's predicted El Nino weather pattern, staff is projecting an expenditure need of approximately $800,000 for the next five years, which would be split between the two companies. With the more severe storm events that the beaches have experienced over the past few years, more resources are needed to combat the effects, therefore staff recommends the increase in not -to -exceed contract limits. Staff also expects increased needs around the harbor. On -call agreements do not guarantee any specific amount of business for the contracted company. When beach maintenance or hauling services needs arise, staff will contact one or both of the contracted firms to determine if availability and pricing meets the needs of a specific request. 9-2 Approval of On -Call Beach Maintenance and Hauling Services Agreements with Tight Quarters and GCI Construction April 25, 2023 Page 3 FISCAL IMPACT: The adopted budget includes sufficient funding for the anticipated sand maintenance and hauling needs in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Account No. 100001-980000- 23H04 for Beach and Bay Sand Management. Staff has projected $500,000 for each of the next five years in the CIP Budget. Additional funds are also available, if necessary, from operational budget accounts. Future year budget requests will include the necessary funds to perform the needed maintenance and hauling services anticipated for the fiscal 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. 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).

Failure of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any liability on City, or its employees.

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 Agreement, 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.
