ACORD 25(2010105) The ACORD name and logo are registered marks of ACORD CTY OF F NEWPORT BEACH City Council Staff Report May 26, 2015 Agenda Item No. 12 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: George Murdoch, Acting Municipal Operations Department Director - (949) 644- 3011, gmurdoch @newportbeachca.gov PREPARED BY: Rachell Wilfert PHONE: (949) 644 -3010 TITLE: Approval of On -Call Repair Services Agreement with International Line Builders for On -Call Streetlight Repairs ABSTRACT: The City utilizes an on -call contractor to provide streetlight repairs beyond regular maintenance, including emergency pole knockdowns and circuit outages. A Request for Proposal was issued to obtain proposals for this service. RECOMMENDATION: Approve an on -call repair services agreement with International Line Builders, Inc. for streetlight repair services, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this purchase. DISCUSSION: The City has approximately 6,000 streetlights that range from 240 to 5,000 volts which occasionally require as- needed repairs or replacement. The City utilizes a contractor that can quickly handle the high - voltage electrical equipment, such as service cabinets, circuits and streetlight poles. This contractor will also be the primary responder to emergency streetlight pole knock -downs for the Police Department which includes removing streetlight debris, de- energizing circuits and making the area safe until the streetlight can be repaired or replaced. Additionally the contractor may be required to replace circuitry, streetlights, and service cabinets on an as- needed basis. A Request for Proposal was released to the public in March 17, 2015, and a total of three proposals were received and subsequently evaluated by a selection panel on the basis of qualifications, availability, experience, understanding of the services and operational methodology. Due to the immediate need for on- call streetlight repair service in emergency situations, a contractor's ability to deploy services is a large priority 12 -1 Rank Proposer Technical Score Cost Ratio Total Score (out of 80) Score (out of International Line Builders, 68.00 20) 20.00 (out of 100) 1 88.00 Inc. 2 Asplundh Construction Corp. 53.75 18.72 72.47 3 Delta G Electric. Inc. 32.25 1 16.94 49.19 International Line Builders, Inc. was therefore chosen to provide on -call streetlight repair services. The agreement has a term limit of two years with a total amount not to exceed $400,000. 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).

A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued in order to obtain new proposals for these services. Based on a combination of qualifications and cost, International Line Builders, Inc. was selected as the highest rated firm. RECOMMENDATION: Approve an agreement with International Line Builders, Inc. for on -call streetlight electrical repair services and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: Streetlight electrical repairs are funded through the Electrical Division budget. The current operations budget (5300 - 8160) contains sufficient funding for this work. Additionally, the Revenue Division invoices at -fault parties for the cost of damage to City property. DISCUSSION: Maintenance and repair of City streetlights and related equipment are coordinated by the Municipal Operations Department. Routine maintenance, such as lamp replacement, is currently handled by an outside contractor. On -call electrical services Approval of an Agreement with International Line Builders, Inc. for On -Call Streetlight Electrical Repair Services July 23, 2013 Page 2 are required to remove, repair and install streetlight poles, service cabinets, conduits and perform other related services. Emergency electrical repair services are required for immediate repairs due to damage from vehicular collisions, forces of nature and vandalism. The City averages 20 knocked down streetlight poles per year. Pole knockdowns make up the majority of the after -hours work. Typically, it takes four (4) hours for a contractor to respond, disconnect the electrical power, and remove the damaged pole. RFP 13 -47 was released on April 18, 2013, distributed to known contractors, and posted on the City's website. A total of three (3) firms submitted proposals by the April 30, 2013 due date. Evaluations were completed by a panel of staff members. Based on a combination of qualifications, experience, project approach, and costs, International Line Builders, Inc. was selected as the highest rated firm. International Line Builders has previously provided services for the City. *Based on an average response to a streetlight knockdown requiring four hours of labor and using each proposer's submitted rates and minimum callout times.

A Request for Proposal was issued to obtain proposals for this service. RECOMMENDATION: Approve an on -call repair services agreement with International Line Builders, Inc. for streetlight repair services, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement. FUNDING REQUIREMENTS: The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this purchase. DISCUSSION: The City has approximately 6,000 streetlights that range from 240 to 5,000 volts which occasionally require as- needed repairs or replacement. The City utilizes a contractor that can quickly handle the high - voltage electrical equipment, such as service cabinets, circuits and streetlight poles. This contractor will also be the primary responder to emergency streetlight pole knock -downs for the Police Department which includes removing streetlight debris, de- energizing circuits and making the area safe until the streetlight can be repaired or replaced. Additionally the contractor may be required to replace circuitry, streetlights, and service cabinets on an as- needed basis. A Request for Proposal was released to the public in March 17, 2015, and a total of three proposals were received and subsequently evaluated by a selection panel on the basis of qualifications, availability, experience, understanding of the services and operational methodology. Due to the immediate need for on- call streetlight repair service in emergency situations, a contractor's ability to deploy services is a large priority 12 -1 Rank Proposer Technical Score Cost Ratio Total Score (out of 80) Score (out of International Line Builders, 68.00 20) 20.00 (out of 100) 1 88.00 Inc. 2 Asplundh Construction Corp. 53.75 18.72 72.47 3 Delta G Electric.

The agreement has a term limit of two years with a total amount not to exceed $400,000. 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.
