FROM: Jessica Sandifer, Management Analy A
DATE: July 2, 2014 (OB Regular Meeting of 07 - 5/14)
SUBJECT: Consider Resolution Authorizing Agreement with R.A. Atmore and
Sons, Inc. for Weed Abatement 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. A majority of the properties are
vacant land, and it becomes necessary throughout the course of the year, to perform
weed abatement activities at each of the properties. Staff finds it convenient to maintain
an on-call weed abatement agreement in order to take care of the property maintenance
in an expeditious manner.
The Successor Agency has used R.A. Atmore and Sons, Inc. ("Atmore") to perform
weed abatement in the past and is recommending that the Successor Agency continue
to use Atmore for on-going weed abatement on an on-call basis. Atmore has the
expertise and qualifications to perform these services and is familiar with the Successor
Agency's properties. Atmore has performed satisfactorily for the former Successor
Agency. The proposed contract will be valid through June 30, 2015. The Successor
Agency approved the Agreement at their July 2, 2014 meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Agreement is for a not-to-exceed amount of $5,000. 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.

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 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.
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.
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 Successor Agency for
injury to employees of Consultant, subconsultants or others involved in the Work. The
scope of coverage provided is subject to approval by the Successor Agency following
receipt of proof of insurance as required herein. Limits are subject to review.
248
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 Successor Agency 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 Successor
Agency, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement
CG 2010 with an edition prior to 2004. 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 Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency, 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
Successor Agency's protection without the Successor Agency'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
Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any
249
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 Successor
Agency shall be charged to and promptly paid by Consultant or deducted from
sums due Consultant, at the Successor Agency's option.
8. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to the
Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency.
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 Successor Agency 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 Successor Agency. If
Consultant'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 Consultant,
which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured
retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
12. The Successor Agency 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 90 days advance written notice of such change. If such change
results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the Successor Agency will
negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to the
Successor Agency.
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.
250
14. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the
part of the Successor Agency to inform Consultant of non-compliance with an
insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations to the
Successor Agency 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 Successor
Agency, 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 Successor Agency 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. As 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
specification applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to the
Successor Agency 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
