MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Community Services Manager
DATE: 06/01/2022 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Award of Agreement to Terracon Consultants, Inc. for
Facility Reserve Study and Resolution Amending the Fiscal Year
2021/22 Budget to Fully Fund Reserve Study
BACKGROUND
The City has 10 buildings and 19 parks with varying amenities that it maintains on a
regular basis. Typically, maintenance issues are taken care of as they present
themselves in a more reactive approach, rather than proactively, where we anticipate the
maintenance needs. A reactive approach to facilities maintenance often involves large
swings in maintenance costs from year to year, as some years might be low maintenance
with minimal issues, whereas other years may be fraught with issues. We also do not
adequately set aside funding for future equipment replacement and maintenance on the
facilities.
In order to adopt a more proactive approach to facilities maintenance and set aside an
appropriate amount of funding for future facilities maintenance a Facility Reserve Study
is needed. Facility Reserve studies provide a baseline of our current facilities and their
condition, identify future maintenance needs, and apply a cost to it. The cost of future
maintenance expenses is then used to calculate an appropriate amount of reserve
funding to be set aside annually that can be used to perform maintenance, replace
equipment, and make repairs. The Reserve Study will also help us when budgeting
maintenance expenses in future budget years.
DISCUSSION
In February 2022, a Request for Qualification/Proposal (RFQ/P) was released for a
consultant to prepare a Parks/Facility Condition Assessment and Facility Reserve Study.
On the RFQ/P closing date of March 23, we received three proposals from qualified firms.
Interviews were conducted in May 2022 with all three firms, and the selection panel rated
Terracon Consultants, Inc. as the most qualified firm. As part of Terracon’s assessment

of our facility condition, information will be entered into a computer software program that
we will have access to in order to run future reports and to interface with our future facility
maintenance work order system.
Terracon’s Fee for the Facility Condition Assessment Reserve Study is $67,360. Staff is
recommending applying a 10% contingency of $6,736 for a total not to exceed agreement
amount of $74,096.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Fiscal Year 2021/22 Budget includes $30,000 for a Reserve study in the General
Fund (1000). In order to fully fund the Reserve Study, a budget amendment from the
General Fund (1000) in the amount of $44,096 is needed to fully cover the total cost of
the Reserve Study.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.

Exhibit A
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of Work, Consultant will maintain
insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Consultant will use
existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage does not
meet requirements set forth here, Consultant agrees to amend, supplement, or endorse
the existing coverage to do so. Consultant acknowledges that the insurance coverage
and policy limits set forth in this section constitute the minimum amount of coverage
required. Any insurance proceeds available to the City in excess of the limits and
coverage required in this Agreement and which is applicable to a given loss, will be
available to the City.
Consultant shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
Commercial General Liability Insurance using Insurance Services Office (ISO)
“Commercial General Liability” policy form CG 00 01 or the exact equivalent. Defense
costs must be paid in addition to limits. There shall be no cross liability exclusion for claims
or suits by one insured against another. Limits are subject to review but in no event less
than $1,000,000 per occurrence for all covered losses and no less than $2,000,000
general aggregate.
Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 including
symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent. Limits are subject to review, but in no event
to be less than $1,000,000 per accident. If Consultant owns no vehicles, this requirement
may be satisfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general liability policy
described above. If Consultant or Consultant’s employees will use personal autos in any
way on this project, Consultant shall provide evidence of personal auto liability for each
such person.
Workers’ Compensation on a state-approved policy form providing statutory benefits as
required by law with employer’s liability limits no less than $1,000,000 per accident or
disease.
Professional Liability or Errors and Omissions Insurance as appropriate shall be written
on a policy form coverage specifically designed to protect against acts, errors or
omissions of the Consultant and “Covered Professional Services” as designated in the
policy must specifically include work performed under this Agreement. The policy limit
shall be no less than $1,000,000 per claim and in the aggregate. The policy must “pay on
behalf of” the insured and must include a provision establishing the insurer’s right to
defend. The policy retroactive date shall be on or before the effective date of this
Agreement.
438
Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary) if used to meet limit requirements,
shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages.
Coverage shall be provided on a “pay on behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in
addition to policy limits. Policy shall contain a provision obligating insurer at the time
insured’s liability is determined, not requiring actual payment by the insured first. There
shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured
against another. Coverage shall be applicable to the City for injury to employees of
Consultant, subconsultants, or others involved in the Work. The scope of coverage
provided is subject to approval by the City following receipt of proof of insurance as
required herein. Limits are subject to review but in no event less than $2,000,000
aggregate.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are
admitted carriers in the State of California and with an A.M. Bests rating of A- or better
and a minimum financial size of VII.
General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Consultant.
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.
439
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.
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
440
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.
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.
441
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
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. The 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 the
City.
