ORIGINATED BY: Cheri Bailiff, Staff Assistant I REVIEWED BY: Ara Mihranian, AICP, Director of Community Development' APPROVED BY: Doug Willmore, City Manager ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: A. Professional Services Agreement for Building & Safety Consulting Services (page A-1) B. Interwest Consulting Group Proposal for Building & Safety Consulting Services (page B-1) C. CSG Proposal for Building and Safety Services (page C-1) BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION: Charles Abbott Associates, Inc. has provided the City's Community Development Department with Building & Safety services since the 1980s. As it has been some time since the City has gone out to bid for Building & Safety consulting services and the City desires to obtain the best combination of price, quality, and customer service, a Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued to five Building & Safety consulting firms located in the Los Angeles and Orange County area on April 17, 2017. This is normal 1 and customary, for both transparency and efficiency reasons, even if the City is satisfied with the services they are currently receiving. The consulting firms were as follows: • Charles Abbott Associates, Inc. • Melad & Associates • CSG Consultants • Interwest Consulting Group • Scott Fazekas & Associates In response to the City's RFP, timely proposals were received by the following four (4) firms: • Charles Abbott Associates, Inc. • Melad & Associates • CSG Consultants • Interwest Consulting Group On June 5, 2017, the City held an interview with Charles Abbott Associates, Inc.; on June 6, 2017, with Interwest Consulting Group; and on June 8, 2017, with Melad & Associates and CSG Consultants. The firms were evaluated based on multiple criteria, including but not limited to: the experience of the firm and associated individuals, understanding of the scope of work, references, the depth of resources to perform the work, familiarity with the City and the Peninsula as a whole, customer service, and the proposed cost. After reviewing each proposal and conducting interviews with these firms, Interwest Consulting Group (Interwest) and CSG Consultants (CSG) were selected as the top two contenders and were scheduled for follow-up interviews. Interwest was further interviewed on June 19, 2017, and July 6, 2017; and CSG on June 19, 2017, and July 10, 2017. As part of the final selection process, the City compared the cost proposals between Interwest and CSG based on current costs and services provided by Charles Abbott Associates, as described in the table below: Building and Safety Services Charles Abbott Associates (Current Fees — 2015 contract) Interwest CSG Building Official $111/hr $140/hr $140/hr Building Inspector $92/hr $80-95/hr $85/hr Plan Checker $92/hr $80-95/hr $100/hr Permit Technician $66/hr $55-65/hr $55/hr Code Enforcement $75/hr $85-95/hr $95/hr 2 After considering all factors, Interwest was chosen to provide the City with Building & Safety services for the next two years. This was based on their understanding of the scope of work and experience working with other municipalities (i.e., the cities of Anaheim, Costa Mesa, Irvine, and Pomona) and the City's customer service expectations. Staff finds that Interwest is best qualified and cost competitive to provide the City with Building & Safety services based on the City's needs including, but not limited, to conducting plan check services at the public counter and reviewing plans electronically. The Building & Safety services include among other things the peer review of Building & Safety reports and plans submitted by applicants, for all proposed projects, and perform special Building & Safety services or other work requested by City including providing services on an as -needed basis (Attachment B). The City Attorney and Interwest have reviewed and approved the attached Professional Service Agreement (Attachment A). CONCLUSION: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to enter into a Professional Service Agreement with Interwest Consulting Group to provide Building & Safety consulting services through June 30, 2019, with the option to extend the agreement for an additional year to June 30, 2020. ALTERNATIVES: In addition to the Staff recommendation, the following alternative actions are available for the City Council's consideration: 1. Direct Staff to solicit additional bids for Building & Safety consulting services. 2. Direct Staff to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with CSG Consultants. 3. Identify any issues of concern that may require further study and direct Staff to provide additional information at a subsequent meeting. 4. Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a Professional Service Agreement for an alternative period of time. 9 CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENT By and Between CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES and INTERWEST CONSULTING GROUP A-1 AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES BETWEEN THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES AND INTERWEST CONSULTING GROUP THIS AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT SERVICES (herein "Agreement") is made and entered into this 1st day of August, 2017 by and between the City of Rancho Palos Verdes, a California municipal corporation ("City") and Interwest Consulting Group, a California corporation ("Consultant").

ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT AND TERMINATION 7.1 California Law. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed and governed both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Los Angeles, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such county, and Consultant covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. In the event of litigation in a U.S. District Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of Los Angeles, State of California. 01203.0005/392135.1 -12- A-13 7.2 Disputes; Default. In the event that Consultant is in default under the terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Consultant for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to Consultant of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in which Consultant may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Consultant is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Consultant does not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article. Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Consultant's default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the City's legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement. 7.3 Retention of Funds. Consultant hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Consultant (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by reason of Consultant's acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Consultant's obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount or validity of which is disputed by Consultant, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the Consultant to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein. 7.4 Waiver. Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement. Acceptance by City of any work or services by Consultant shall not constitute a waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non -defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement. 7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party. -13- A-14 01203.0005/392135.1 7.6 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Consultant shall file a statutory claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905 et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement. 7.7 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term. This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination for cause.

In addition, the Consultant reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days' written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City, the period of notice may be such shorter time as the Consultant may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of termination, Consultant shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be specifically approved by the Contract Officer. Except where the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective date of the notice of termination and for any services authorized by the Contract Officer thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3. In the event the Consultant has initiated termination, the Consultant shall be entitled to compensation only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of termination without cause pursuant to this Section, the terminating party need not provide the non -terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2. 7.8 Termination for Default of Consultant. If termination is due to the failure of the Consultant to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and the Consultant shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the Consultant for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated. 7.9 Attorneys' Fees.

We believe in a customer -service model that extends in both directions, from City management to the citizens. CUSTOMER SERVICE PHILOSOPHY Interwest emphasizes superior customer service to all of our staff.
