City of Elk Grove City Council Staff Report AGENDA ITEM NO. 10.1 CITY OF ELK GROVE CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT AGENDA TITLE: Consider a resolution dispensing with the formal request for proposal procedures pursuant to Elk Grove Municipal Code section 3.42.188(B)(3) and authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Sacramento Regional Transit District (SacRT) to provide the City’s fixed-route local and commuter transit services, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) paratransit services, and supporting transit maintenance operations; and execute a Second Amendment to the Service Agreement between SacRT and the City of Elk Grove (C-17-290) modifying the proportionate share payment requirements upon execution of the contract with SacRT to provide the City’s transit services and maintenance operations MEETING DATE: February 27, 2019 PREPARED BY: Michael Costa, Transit System Manager DEPARTMENT HEAD: Robert Murdoch, P.E., Public Works Director/ City Engineer RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution: 1. Dispensing with the formal request for proposal procedures pursuant to Elk Grove Municipal Code section 3.42.188(B)(3) and authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Sacramento Regional Transit District (SacRT) to provide the City’s fixed-route local and commuter transit services, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) paratransit services, and supporting transit maintenance operations; and 1 Elk Grove City Council February 27, 2019 Page 2 of 6 2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute a Second Amendment to the Service Agreement between SacRT and the City of Elk Grove (C-17- 290), modifying the proportionate share payment requirements upon execution of the contract with SacRT to provide the City’s transit services and maintenance operations. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: On December 12, 2018, the City Council directed staff to negotiate a contract with SacRT for the operation of the City’s transit services and maintenance operations, to commence following the expiration of the City’s current contract with MV Transportation (MV) on June 30, 2019. The City Council further indicated that this contract could be precursor to the City’s annexation back into SacRT’s service district, pending evaluation of SacRT’s performance during the contract and the City’s acceptance of any negotiated annexation terms. Additional information regarding the context for the City Council’s direction to negotiate a contract with SacRT, and the Council’s consideration of annexation, can be found in Attachment 4 of this staff report. ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION: Following the City Council’s direction in December 2018, City and SacRT staff met multiples times, negotiated, and agreed upon terms, conditions and provisions for a contract for the operation and maintenance of Elk Grove’s transit services. The proposed contract is included as Attachment 2 to this report, and it describes the terms and conditions under which SacRT will provide transit services to the City beginning on July 1, 2019, and the City’s responsibilities during the five-year term of the contract. The contract also contains a provision that allows the City and SacRT to negotiate annexation terms and conditions at any time during, or after, the Contract’s term. The contract contains a number of the same performance requirements and operational standards that exist in the City’s current contract with MV Transportation, Inc. (MV), including the following: • SacRT will maintain all existing transit service levels, while also providing the City with the flexibility to modify service levels in order to meet the City’s needs; 2 Elk Grove City Council December 12, 2018 Page 3 of 6 • SacRT will adhere to applicable federal and state contract regulations, to maintain existing contracted administrative staff, bus operators (drivers), customer service and dispatch personnel, and maintenance (mechanics)/utility staff, provided that the individuals pass SacRT’s employment and security background review process and maintain satisfactory job performance/standing; • Key SacRT administrative personnel, who either report to, or interact directly with, the City’s Transit Manager and Fleet and Facilities Manager, must be approved by the City; • Liquidated damage assessments, which have been negotiated and agreed upon by City and SacRT staff, are defined and will be utilized to help ensure that SacRT adheres to the all of the contract’s key performance measures; • Customer service standards, bus preventive maintenance protocols, and bus and bus shelter washing schedules will all be maintained by SacRT in a manner similar to the City’s current contract with MV; • As a condition of the proposed contract with SacRT, SacRT has agreed to treat the amounts paid by the City under the contract as the City’s proportionate share payment for the final year of the current Service Agreement that the City had executed with SacRT on on July 13, 2017 (C-17-290), and amended on June 7, 2018 (C-18- 343); and • Pending the identification of appropriate funding, and the establishment of an agreement with Paratransit, Inc. for providing the service, the City and SacRT will work towards implementing regional ADA paratransit service for ADA-eligible Elk Grove residents, which may be implemented by July 1, 2019, or shortly thereafter. It is important to note that there are two provisions within the proposed contract that deviate from the City’s current contract with MV. These two matters are summarized, below: • Indemnification: The City and SacRT have negotiated the terms of indemnification and defense, which allow for circumstances of mutual indemnity for both the City and SacRT. Per the City’s current contract with MV, MV must fully indemnify and defend the City and accept all liability for transit services and operations at all times, with the exception of events that are due to the City’s willful misconduct 3 Elk Grove City Council February 27, 2019 Page 4 of 6 and/or sole negligence. The City is not responsible for indemnifying or defending MV at any time. With mutual indemnification with SacRT, the City will accept liability under defined circumstances that require the City to indemnify and defend SacRT. The City’s existing insurance liability policies provide adequate coverage for the City’s indemnification of SacRT for non-transit related liability; however, additional costs to indemnify SacRT in the special circumstances defined in the proposed contract are unknown. As a public agency, SacRT requires the City to provide some level of mutual indemnification, and staff believes that the negotiated terms for this indemnification are fair and adequate. • Performance Bond: SacRT will not be required to provide a Performance Bond. The Performance Bond requirement is a typical contract provision that is intended to help the City financially in the event that a contractor either terminates the services, or fails to perform the required work. If this event were to occur, the City would be forced to immediately procure a new transit contractor to complete the contracted work, which would require the City to call upon the Performance Bond to pay for those services. SacRT has expressed concern with the costs to acquire a Performance Bond for the proposed contract. City staff does not anticipate that the removal of the Performance Bond requirement will result in any major financial risk for the City at this time, particularly since SacRT is a public agency. With regard to the proposed Second Amendment to the Service Agreement, the City is required by statute to pay a proportionate share payment to SacRT in order to become a participating entity in the Sacramento Regional Transit District. Currently, the City’s proportionate share payment is set at $350,000 per year. As noted above, the proposed contract with SacRT will serve to satisfy the City’s proportionate share payment requirement. The proposed Second Amendment to the Service Agreement (Attachment 3) provides that the proportionate share payment will not be owed for Fiscal Year 2020 (July 2019 to June 2020) provided the underlying agreement for operation and maintenance of the City’s transit system remains in place. Elk Grove Municipal Code section 3.42.188(B)(3) states that the City Council may dispense with the formal request for proposals procedure when, in the judgment of the City Council, compliance with the procedure is not in the best interest of the City. Due to the factors listed above, a formal 4 Elk Grove City Council December 12, 2018 Page 5 of 6 request for proposal process will not be in the best interest of the City. Pursuing the formal proposal process would result in an expenditure of time and money, and the process is not expected to result in an outcome more advantageous to the City than the proposed contract with SacRT. Additionally, staff contacted its representatives at the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) to discuss the proposed contract and procurement requirements. The FTA noted that a contract between the City and SacRT would be an intergovernmental agreement between two public entities, not a “procurement.” Therefore, the federal competitive procurement requirements are inapplicable. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: If the City Council does not wish to pursue the proposed contract with SacRT, the alternative would be to execute a one year extension to the contract with MV under the same terms and conditions as the City’s current contract. Following the City Council’s direction in December, 2018, staff received an unsolicited cost proposal from MV that identified

  • Living Simultaneity
    Living Simultaneity Simultaneity Living Semi-secular individuals, those who are neither religious nor unreligious, seldom get the attention of scholars of religion. Here, however, they stand at the center. Th e interviewees live in the same Stockholm neighborhood and it is their ways of talking about and relating to religion that is analyzed and described. Simultaneity is one particular feature in the material. Th is concept emphazises a ‘both and’ approach in: the way the respon- dents ascribe meaning to the term religion; how they talk about themselves in relation to diff erent religious designations and how they interpret experiences that they single out as ‘out-of-the- ordinary’. Th ese simultaneities are explained and theorized through analyses focusing on intersubjective and discursive processes. Th is work adds to a critical discussion on the supposedly far-reaching secularity in Sweden on the one hand and on the incongruence and inconsistency of lived religion on the other. In relation to theorizing on religion and religious people, this study off ers empirical material that nuance a dichotomous under- standing of ‘the religious’ and ‘the secular’. In relation to method- ology it is argued that the salience of simultaneity in the material shows that when patterns of religiosity among semisecular Swedes are studied there is a need to be attentive to expressions of com- plexity, contradiction and incongruity.

  • The Study of Language This Best-Selling Textbook Provides an Engaging and User-Friendly Introduction to the Study of Language
    This page intentionally left blank The Study of Language This best-selling textbook provides an engaging and user-friendly introduction to the study of language. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject, Yule presents information in short, bite-sized sections, introducing the major concepts in language study – from how children learn language to why men and women speak differently, through all the key elements of language. This fourth edition has been revised and updated with twenty new sections, covering new accounts of language origins, the key properties of language, text messaging, kinship terms and more than twenty new word etymologies. To increase student engagement with the text, Yule has also included more than fifty new tasks, including thirty involving data analysis, enabling students to apply what they have learned. The online study guide offers students further resources when working on the tasks, while encouraging lively and proactive learning. This is the most fundamental and easy-to-use introduction to the study of language. George Yule has taught Linguistics at the Universities of Edinburgh, Hawai’i, Louisiana State and Minnesota. He is the author of a number of books, including Discourse Analysis (with Gillian Brown, 1983) and Pragmatics (1996). “A genuinely introductory linguistics text, well suited for undergraduates who have little prior experience thinking descriptively about language. Yule’s crisp and thought-provoking presentation of key issues works well for a wide range of students.” Elise Morse-Gagne, Tougaloo College “The Study of Language is one of the most accessible and entertaining introductions to linguistics available. Newly updated with a wealth of material for practice and discussion, it will continue to inspire new generations of students.” Stephen Matthews, University of Hong Kong ‘Its strength is in providing a general survey of mainstream linguistics in palatable, easily manageable and logically organised chunks.

    CREATING A BETTER WAY TO LIVE 2019 CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT AT AVALONBAY COMMUNITIES, OUR PURPOSE IS CREATING A BETTER WAY TO LIVE — FOR OUR RESIDENTS, OUR ASSOCIATES, OUR SHAREHOLDERS, THE COMMUNITIES IN WHICH WE DO BUSINESS AND OUR PLANET AT LARGE. Achieving this purpose means being aware of the full impact of our activities and managing our business with an eye on the future. It means remaining true to the long-term wellbeing of all of our stakeholders, broadly defined. As a real estate investment trust (REIT), we are owners and investors for the long term, allowing us to consider the full life cycle impact of the decisions we make every day. With this in mind, our goal is to build and operate much more than buildings. The cities and suburbs in our core markets across the country are reinventing themselves through higher density, amenity-rich living. They are offering residents more options for sustainable ways to live, from green buildings and walkable neighborhoods to better transit and commuting alternatives, and they are moving to a low-carbon emission future. We’re proud to be at the forefront of this reinvention, creating communities that achieve long-term environmental efficiency and foster better living far beyond their walls. Communities through which we make our core values visible: a commitment to integrity, a spirit of caring and a focus on continuous improvement. Realizing this vision is an ongoing journey and is not always easy. But for us, it’s always right. 1 FROM THE CEO 2019 was another productive year for AvalonBay and our stakeholders — investors, residents, associates and the communities where we do business.
