AGENDA REPORTof
4-A,—,20/174
BY:
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Sean Corrigan, City Engineer/Public Works Director /v / • 7
Prepared by: Shaun Kroes, Program Manager
DATE: June 2, 2017 (CC Meeting of 06/21/17)
SUBJECT: Consider Agreement with Beacon Integrated Professional Resources,
Inc., dba Hamner, Jewell and Associates for Real Property Services
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City has used Hamner, Jewell and Associates (Hamner) for real property services for
several years. The City currently has an Agreement with Hamner for real property services
associated with widening Los Angeles Avenue (between Spring Road and Moorpark
Avenue). Staff would like to establish a separate, two-year Agreement(Attachment 1)with
Hamner for a total not-to-exceed amount of $50,000 for real property services. The
blanket agreement would enable City staff to assign individual tasks to Hamner on an as-
needed basis.
The City currently has a need for real property services for the Spring Road Widening
project (CIP C0022). Specifically, the City needs to extend temporary construction
easements (TCA)with four property owners along Spring Road as well as establish a new
TCE with a fifth property owner. Hamner's proposal is included in this staff report as
Attachment 2.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed Agreement will have a total not-to-exceed amount of$50,000. In order for
the City to assign Tasks to the proposed Agreement, sufficient funds will need to be
provided at the time that a Task is assigned. Hamner's not-to-exceed amount for TCE's
associated with CIP C0022 is $11,725 and will come from 2014.311.00022.55300, which
will have sufficient funds after a budget line item adjustment is performed. The remaining
balance of the Agreement after assignment of the Task Order for Spring Road TCE
extension will be $38,275.

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 duty to
defend. The policy retroactive date shall be on Or before the effective date of this
Agreement.
Professional Services Agreement between
City of Moorpark and Hamner, Jewell and Associates 14 8
Page 11 of 19
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 with an
edition prior to 1992. 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.
Professional Services Agreement between
City of Moorpark and Hamner, Jewell and Associates 14 9
Page 12 of 19
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
Professional Services Agreement between
City of Moorpark and Hamner, Jewell and Associates 15 0
Page 13of19
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

Sean Corrigan,P.E.
City Engineer/Public Works Director
City of Moorpark
799 Moorpark Road
Moorpark,CA 93021
Subject: City of Moorpark—Spring Road Widening—TCE Extensions
Proposal
Dear Sean,
Thank you for seeking our assistance on the Spring Road Widening project. As you know, back
in 2004 and 2005, we worked with four property owners to help the City of Moorpark'("City")
obtain right of way and temporary construction easements needed for the road widening project.
The construction of this project was delayed for several years and the temporary construction
easements subsequently expired on December 31, 2008,prior to being used for the project. Now
the City would like to move forward with project construction and would like our help to work
with the four property owners to obtain extensions in the term of the temporary construction
easements ("TCE"). You have also indicated that on the McDonalds and Park Springs Condos
properties, some additional TCE space will be necessary.
Following is a list of the four subject properties:
• APN: 512-0-180-080(McDonalds Corporation)
• APN: 512-0-190-XXX(Park Springs Condos)
• APN: 512-0-150-205 (Woodcreek Apartments LLC)
• APN: 512-0-172-075 (Scribner/Hotchkiss)
To assist the City with this effort, we would propose to contact each owner and ask for their
cooperation in granting a TCE extension without any additional payments to them since the
original TCE's were never utilized. We would then prepare a draft Agreement to Extend
Temporary Construction Easement for the City's approval. After this document is approved by
the City, we would customize it for each owner and provide it to them for review and approval.
We would also prepare a Memorandum of Agreement—Temporary Construction Easement. This
would be a recordable document for the City's signature that would provide constructive notice
of the TCE extension. Again we would seek the TCE extensions at no cost to the City.

However in the event any of the owners request payment, we would suggest that the City
consider offering compensation based upon the per square foot valuations from the original
appraisals. For the two properties,that require additional TCE space, we can document the extra
space needed in the Agreements to Extend TCE's. We would however need the City to provide
us with simple exhibits for these two properties that show the additional
space needed so that we can attach the exhibits to the Agreements to Extend TCE.
The City is additionally seeking our assistance in obtaining a new TCE on the following subject
property:
• APN: 512-0-180-110 (Allee Real Estate LLC)
As you know, we did not previously work with this owner. We understand that the City worked
directly with this owner to obtain the necessary right of way for the project through dedication.
However a TCE was not obtained at that time and is now needed.
To assist with this effort, we would recommend obtaining a preliminary title report on this
property. The title report will help us prepare the TCE deed for the proper vested owner's
signature. It will also provide us with information about the existing driveway
easements/reciprocal access agreements. After the title report is obtained, we would contact the
owner to discuss the project and the TCE request. We would seek to obtain the needed TCE
without the need for an appraisal or payment to the owner. However since we have had no
contact with this owner as of writing this proposal, we do not know for certain if they would be
willing to grant a TCE without compensation. If we are able to confirm that the owners are
willing to donate the needed TCE, we will prepare TCE deed and agreement for City pre-
approval. Upon City approval, we would offer to meet with the property owner to finalize the
TCE documents. We will need the City to provide us with a legal description with plat map for
the TCE Deed. We have based this proposal on the assumption that this owner will donate the
needed TCE, however if they demand compensation for the TCE, we will need to add the cost of
obtaining an appraisal to the budget at a later date.
For budgetary purposes, we propose that we base a budget on the allocation of 80 hours of
Hamner, Jewell& Associates staff time at our attached Fee Schedule rates, plus the costs of one
title report and reimbursable expenses (mileage,postage, etc)as follows:
➢ One Preliminary Title Report: $ 825
➢ Owner Outreach and TCE Extension Processing: $10,400
> Reimbursable Costs(Mileage, Postage, etc.) : $ 500
TOTAL $11,725
Again appraisals are not included in this budget. If we end up needing to come back to the
proposed budget to add the cost of obtaining any necessary appraisals, we will at that point obtain
bids from appraisers and provide you with the recommended additional budget.
We will bill only for time actually expended and will work closely with you to assure that our
efforts are directed towards the areas deemed appropriate per your general direction and if less
time is required, our fee will be less. Complexities that arise that require additional time will
prompt the need for additional budget. This time allotment assumes prompt responsiveness and

cooperation from the property owners and does not allocate time for any extensive follow up or
unresponsive cases if there are any.
Please let me know if you have any questions or will require anything further in order to retain us
to assist you with these efforts. You can reach me by phone 4t (805) 658-8844 or by email at
hjohnson@hamner-jewell.com. Thank you for calling on us to assist you with this project. We
look forward to the opportunity to work with and assist you and the City with this project!
