REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable Successor Agency Board
FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Management Anal
7q,
DATE: June 20, 2014 (Successor Agency Meeting of July 02, 2014)
SUBJECT: Consider Agreement with Mike's Handyman Service for Property
Maintenance at Various Successor Agency Properties
BACKGROUND & DISCUSSION
The Successor Agency of the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Moorpark
("Successor Agency") is responsible for maintaining the properties that were transferred
to it upon the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency. Oftentimes the property
maintenance that is required is of an urgent nature such as graffiti removal, fencing
repair, or property damage repair. Staff finds it convenient to maintain an on-call
property maintenance agreement with a handyman service in order to take care of the
property maintenance issues in an expeditious manner.
The Successor Agency has used Mike's Handyman Service (MHS) to perform these
property maintenance tasks and is recommending continuing to use MHS for on-going
property maintenance on an on-call basis. MHS has the expertise and qualifications to
perform these services and is familiar with the Successor Agency's needs. MHS has
performed satisfactorily to date. The proposed agreement will be valid through June 30,
2015.
FISCAL IMPACT
The agreement is for a not -to -exceed amount of $10,000. Funds for these services have
been included on the Successor Agency's Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule
(ROPS) in order to ensure sufficient funds are available for the project from the
Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) account. If the contract expenditures
exceed the amount on the ROPS, the additional funds will be added to future ROPS for
repayment from the RPTTF account.

date. Liquidated damages shall be deducted from any payments due or to become due
to the Contractor under the terms of this Agreement [Government Code Sec. 53069.85].
Progress payments made by the Successor Agency after the above specified

Contractor shall maintain complete and accurate records with respect to sales,
costs, expenses, receipts, and other such information required by Successor Agency
that relate to the performance of services under this Agreement. Contractor shall

evaluation of services. All such records shall be maintained in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and shall be clearly identified and readily
accessible. Contractor shall provide free access to the representatives of Successor
Agency or its designees at reasonable times to such books and records; shall give the
Successor Agency the right to examine and audit said books and records; shall permit
Successor Agency to make transcripts therefrom as necessary; and shall allow
inspection of all work, data, documents, proceedings, and activities related to this
Agreement. Notification of audit shall be provided at least thirty (30) days before any
such audit is conducted. Such records, together with supporting documents, shall be
maintained for a period of ten (10) years after receipt of final payment.
Upon completion of, or in the event of termination or suspension of this
Agreement, all original documents, designs, drawings, maps, models, computer files,
surveys, notes, and other documents prepared in the course of providing the services to

Successor Agency and may be used, reused, or otherwise disposed of by the
Successor Agency without the permission of the Contractor. With respect to computer
files, Contractor shall make available to the Successor Agency, at the Contractor's
office and upon reasonable written request by the Successor Agency, the necessary
computer software and hardware for purposes of accessing, compiling, transferring, and
printing computer files.
10. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS
Contractor shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by Successor
Agency, and hold harmless Successor Agency, its officers, officials, employees and
volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without
limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of
litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Contractor's negligence,
recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to
comply with any of its obligations contained in this agreement, except such loss or
damage which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of the
Successor Agency. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel
from representing both Successor Agency and Contractor, or should Successor Agency
otherwise find Contractor's legal counsel unacceptable, then Contractor shall reimburse
Mike's Handyman Service Page 4 of 15 334
the Successor Agency its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable legal
counsels fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Contractor shall
promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the Successor Agency (and its
officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier
of fact to have been the result of the Contractor's negligent, reckless or wrongful
performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are
intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the state of California
and will survive termination of this Agreement.
Contractor obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such
claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense,
judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an
Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of Successor Agency under any
provision of this agreement, Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold
harmless Successor Agency for liability attributable to the active negligence of
Successor Agency, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement
between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction. In instances
where Successor Agency is shown to have been actively negligent and where
Successor Agency active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability
involved, the obligation of Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of
liability not attributable to the active negligence of Successor Agency.
Contractor agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements with provisions
identical to those set forth here in this Section from each and every subcontractor or any
other person or entity involved by, for, with, or on behalf of Contractor in the
performance of this Agreement. In the event Contractor fails to obtain such indemnity
obligations from others as required here, Contractor agrees to be fully responsible
according to the terms of this Section.
Failure of Successor Agency to monitor compliance with these requirements
imposes no additional obligations on Successor Agency and will in no way act as a
waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend Successor
Agency as set forth here is binding on the successors, assigns, or heirs of Contractor
and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or Section.
This Indemnity shall survive termination of the Agreement or Final Payment
hereunder. This Indemnity is in addition to any other rights or remedies that the
Indemnitees may have under the law or under any other Contract Documents or
Agreements. In the event of any claim or demand made against any party which is
entitled to be indemnified hereunder, Successor Agency may, in its sole discretion,
reserve, retain, or apply any monies to the Contractor under this Agreement for the
purpose of resolving such claims; provided, however, Successor Agency may release
such funds if the Contractor provides Successor Agency with reasonable assurance of
protection of the Indemnitees' interests. Successor Agency shall, in its sole discretion,
determine whether such assurances are reasonable.

independent Contractor. The personnel performing the services under this Agreement
on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Contractor's exclusive direction and
control. Neither Successor Agency nor any of its officers, employees, or agents shall
have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor's officers, employees,
or agents, except as set forth in this Agreement. Contractor shall not at any time or in
any manner represent that it or any of its officers, employees, or agents are in any
manner officers, employees, or agents of the Successor Agency. Contractor shall not
incur or have the power to incur any debt, obligation, or liability against Successor
Agency, or bind Successor Agency in any manner.
No employee benefits shall be available to Contractor in connection with the
performance of this Agreement. Except for the fees paid to Contractor as provided in
the Agreement, Successor Agency shall not pay salaries, wages, or other compensation
to Contractor for performing services hereunder for Successor Agency. Successor

sickness arising out of performing services hereunder.

regulations which in any manner affect those employed by it or in any way affect the
performance of its service pursuant to this Agreement. The Contractor shall at all times
observe and comply with all such laws and regulations. The Successor Agency, and its
officers and employees, shall not be liable at law or in equity occasioned by failure of
the Contractor to comply with this Section.
14. ANTI DISCRIMINATION
Neither the Contractor, nor any subcontractor under the Contractor, shall
discriminate in employment of persons upon the work because of race, religious creed,
color, national origin, ancestry, physical handicap, medical condition, marital status, or
gender of such person, except as provided in Section 12940 of the Government Code.

entitling the Successor Agency to any and all remedies at law or in equity.

EXHIBIT A
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Prior to the beginning of and throughout the duration of the Work, Contractor will
maintain insurance in conformance with the requirements set forth below. Contractor
will use existing coverage to comply with these requirements. If that existing coverage
does not meet the requirements set forth here, it will be amended to do so. Contractor
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 Successor Agency in excess of the limits and coverage required in this Agreement
and which is applicable to a given loss, will be available to the Successor Agency.
Contractor shall provide the following types and amounts of insurance:
1. Commercial General Liability
Commercial General Liability Insurance shall be provided by an Insurance
Services Office "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 shall be no
less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for all covered losses and no less than $2,000,000
general aggregate.
Contractor's policy shall contain no endorsements limiting coverage beyond the
basic policy coverage grant for any of the following:
a. Explosion, collapse or underground hazard (XCU)
b. Products and completed operations
c. Pollution liability
d. Contractual liability
Coverage shall be applicable to Successor Agency for injury to employees of
contractors, subcontractors, or others involved in the project. Policy shall be endorsed
to provide a separate limit applicable to this project.
2. Workers' Compensation
Workers' Compensation insurance shall be provided on a state -approved policy
form providing statutory benefits as required by law with employers' liability limits no
less than $1,000,000 per accident for all covered losses.
Mike's Handyman Service Page 11 of 15
341
3. Business Auto Coverage
Business Auto Coverage on ISO Business Auto Coverage form CA 00 01 06 92
including symbol 1 (Any Auto) or the exact equivalent shall be provided. Limits shall be
no less than $1,000,000 per accident, combined single limit. If Contractor owns no
vehicles, this requirement may be satisfied by a non -owned auto endorsement to the
general liability policy described above. If Contractor or Contractor's employees will use
personal autos in any way on this project, Contract shall provide evidence of personal
auto liability coverage for each such person.
4. Excess or Umbrella Liabili
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. There shall be no cross liability exclusion precluding
coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another. Coverage shall be
applicable to Successor Agency for injury to employees of contractor, subcontractors, or
others involved in the Work. The scope of coverage provided is subject to the approval
of Successor Agency following receipt of proof of insurance as required herein. Limits
are subject to review.
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers
that are admitted carriers in the state of California and with A.M. Best rating of A- or
better and a minimum financial size of VII.
Contractor and Successor Agency agrees as follows:
1. Contractor agrees to endorse the third party general liability coverage required
herein to include as additional insureds Successor Agency, its officials,
employees, agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an
edition date of 2004. Contractor also agrees to require all contractors,
subcontractors, and any one else involved in any way with the project
contemplated by this Agreement to do likewise.
2. Any waiver of subrogation express or implied on the part of the Successor
Agency to any party involved in this Agreement or related documents applies
only to the extent of insurance proceeds actually paid. Successor Agency, having
required that it be named as an additional insured to all insurance coverage
required herein, expressly retains the right to subrogate against any party for
sums not paid by insurance. For its part, Contractor agrees to waive subrogation
rights against Successor Agency regardless of the applicability of any insurance
proceeds, and to require all contractors, subcontractors, or others involved in any
way with the project contemplated by this Agreement to do likewise.
3. All insurance coverage maintained or procured by Contractor or required of
others by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to delete the
subrogation condition as to the Successor Agency, or to specifically allow
Mike's Handyman Service Page 12 of 15 342
Contractor or others providing insurance herein to waive subrogation prior to a
loss. This endorsement shall be obtained regardless of existing policy wording
that may appear to allow such waivers.
4. It is agreed by Contractor and Successor Agency that insurance provided
pursuant to these requirements is not intended by any party to be limited to
providing coverage for the vicarious liability of Successor Agency, or to the
supervisory role, if any, of Successor Agency. All insurance coverage provided
pursuant to this or any other Agreement (express or implied) in any way relating
to Successor Agency is intended to apply to the full extent of the policies
involved. Nothing referred to here or contained in any agreement involving
Successor Agency in relation to the project contemplated by this Agreement is
intended to be construed to limit the application of insurance coverage in any
way.
5. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these
requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not
been first submitted to Successor Agency and approved of in writing.
6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification, and
additional requirements by the Successor Agency, as the need arises. Contractor
shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of
contractual liability or reduction of discover period) that may affect Successor
Agency's protection without Successor Agency's prior written consent.
7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of binders of
coverage, or endorsements, or certificates of insurance, shall be delivered to
Successor Agency at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event
such proof of 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, Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency
shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contractor or deducted from sums due
Contractor, at Successor Agency option.
8. Contractor agrees to endorse, and to required others to endorse, the insurance
provided pursuant to these requirements, to require 30 days notice to Successor
Agency and the appropriate tender prior to cancellation or reduction of such
liability coverage and notice of any material alteration or non -renewal of any such
coverage, and to require contractors, subcontractors, and any other party in any
way involved with the project contemplated by this Agreement to do likewise.
9. It is acknowledged by the parties of this Agreement that all insurance coverage
required to be provided by Contractor or any subcontractor, and any other party
involved with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by
Contractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary non-contributing basis in
Mike's Handyman Service Page 13 of 15
343
relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to the Successor
Agency.
10. Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved
with the project who is brought onto or involved in the project by Contractor,
provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor.
Contractor 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 Agreement. Contractor agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in this project will be
submitted to Successor Agency for review.

primary, umbrella and excess, will have the same starting and expiration date.
Contractor agrees further that all other third party coverages required herein will
likewise have concurrent starting and ending dates.
12. Contractor 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 on the project
contemplated by this Agreement to self -insure its obligations to Successor
Agency. If Contractor's existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured
retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the
Successor Agency. At that time the Successor Agency shall review options with
the Contractor, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or
self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
13. The Successor Agency reserves the right at any time during the term of this
Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the
Contractor 90 days advance written notice of such change. If such change
results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the Successor Agency will
negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to
Successor Agency.
14. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, all contracts pertaining to the
project will be deemed to be executed when finalized and any activity
commences in furtherance of performance under this Agreement.
15. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the
part of Successor Agency to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any
insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on
Successor Agency nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other
regard.
16. Contractor will renew the required coverage annually as long as Successor
Agency, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type
pursuance to this Agreement. This obligation applies whether or not the

Agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. The insurance shall include
but not be limited to products and completed operations and discontinued
operations, where applicable. Termination of this obligation is not effective until
Successor Agency executes a written statement to that effect.

compensation statute or similar statute, in relation to the Successor Agency, and
to require all subcontractors and any other person or entity involved in the project
contemplated by this Agreement to do likewise.
18. Requirements of specific coverage features are not intended as limitations on
other requirements or 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 all-inclusive.
19. Any provision in any of the construction documents dealing with the insurance
coverage provided pursuant to these requirements, is subordinate to and
superseded by the requirements contained herein. These insurance
requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in
this Agreement and are intended by the parties to be interpreted as such.
20. All liability coverage provided according to these requirements must be endorsed
to provide a separate aggregate limit for the project that is the subject of this
Agreement and evidencing products and completed operations coverage for not
less than two years after issuance of a final certificate of occupancy by all
appropriate government agencies or acceptance of the completed work by
Successor Agency.
21. Contractor agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any
party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to change Successor
Agency or Contractor for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by
this Agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to
Successor Agency. It is not the intent of Successor Agency to reimburse any
third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no
recourse against Successor Agency for payment of premiums or other amounts
with respect thereto.
22. Contractor agrees to obtain and provide to Successor Agency a copy of
Professional Liability coverage for Architects or Engineers on this project through
