Consider Agreement with Riggs & Riggs, Inc. for Property Appraisal Services and Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year 2020/21 Budget for Services. Staff Recommendation: 1) Approve Agreement with Riggs & Riggs, Inc., for property appraisal services; and authorize the City Manager to sign the Agreement, subject to final language approval of the City Manager; and 2) Adopt Resolution No. 2020-3975 amending the Fiscal Year 2020/21 Budget for real estate appraisal services. (Staff: Jessica Sandifer) ROLL CALL VOTE REQUIRED Item: 10.E. MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: Honorable City Council FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Community Services Manager DATE: 12/02/2020 Regular Meeting SUBJECT: Consider Agreement with Riggs & Riggs, Inc. for Property Appraisal Services and Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year 2020/21 Budget for Services BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION As the City and Successor Agency work towards the goal of disposing of the former redevelopment agency properties, the services of an appraiser are required. Staff has been working with Riggs & Riggs, Inc., (Riggs & Riggs) throughout the years on various property appraisal assignments. As the amount of appraisal work is going to be intensifying around the disposition of the properties, staff is recommending approving a blanket appraisal services agreement with Riggs and Riggs. This Agreement does not require a formal or informal request for proposal (RFP) process as the cost is below the RFP threshold for Professional Consulting Services of $60,000 as defined by the procedures governing procurement of Professional Services in Resolution No. 2019- 3829.This agreement will allow the City to work with Riggs and Riggs as needed, rather than drafting an agreement for each individual property appraisal. Under the Agreement, Riggs & Riggs would provide an individual quote for appraisal or appraisal revisions for a particular property and staff would authorize the work through a work authorization process. FISCAL IMPACT Staff is recommending a $50,000 agreement with Riggs & Riggs. Funds are not budgeted for property appraisal work. An amendment to the Fiscal Year 2020/21 budget is needed to fund this work. Staff is proposing to appropriate $25,000 from the Housing Successor Agency Fund (2123) Fund Balance for the housing properties and $25,000 from the General Fund (1000) Unreserved Fund Balance for non-housing properties. The Fund Balance of the Housing Successor Agency Fund (2123) is $1,309,885, and the Fund Balance of the General Fund (1000) is $407,082. The appraisal work will be reimbursed by the proceeds of each property sale.

Consultant and the City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant: 1. Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds the City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement CG 2010 and CG 2037 with edition acceptable to the City. Consultant also agrees to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant, or Consultant’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right to subrogation prior to a loss. Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against the City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operation limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to the City and approved in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification, and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect the City’s protection without the City’s prior written consent. Riggs & Riggs, Inc. Page 11 of 16 131 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to city at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled or reduced at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, the City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other Agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by the City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, at the City’s option. 8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) days notice to the City of any cancellation or reduction of coverage. Consultant agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation or reduction of coverage imposes no obligation, or that any party will “endeavor” (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the certificate. 9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to the City. 10. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the Work who is brought onto or involved in the Work by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the Work will be submitted to the City for review. 11. Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer, or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of Work contemplated by this Agreement to self-insure its obligations to the City. If Consultant’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self- insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time, the City shall review options with the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 12. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to the City. Riggs & Riggs, Inc. Page 12 of 16 132 13. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Consultant of non-compliance with an insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations to the City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 15. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as the City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the Agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until the City executes a written statement to that effect. 16. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Consultant’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to the City within five days of the expiration of coverage. 17. The provisions of any Workers’ Compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Consultant under this Agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to the City, its employees, officials and agents. 18. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. 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 limiting or all- inclusive. 19. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 20. The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts or impairs the provisions of this section. 21. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the Work reserves the right to charge the City or Consultant for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this Riggs & Riggs, Inc. Page 13 of 16 133 Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to the City. It is not the intent of the City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against the City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 22. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant arising out of the work performed under this Agreement.
