Leonard Wingate,,CityAttorney CITY OF RED G, CALIFORNIA Council Policy SUBJECT Resolution Policy Effective OWNER/DEVELOPER PARTICIPATION Number Number Date Page AGREEMENTS 1502 02/06/01 1 Background From time to time, it is advantageous for the City to enter into Owner/Developer Participation Agreements with private developers for the design and construction of various types of public works infrastructure when the work is an integral part of the developers project. This is normally done when the City has collected developer contribution fees toward a specific improvement,or when Traffic Impact Fees or Redevelopment Funds are involved. These agreements are designed to"privatize"the design, construction and project administration. The Public Works Department is charged with administering the expenditure of the funds and insuring that work meets City specifications. POLICY Public involvement made under owner participation or development agreements shall occur based on the following guidelines: Scope All of the elements of the project must be identified and agreed upon by all parties involved, including those who are responsible for each element, and the time frame in which they will be completed. This phase must include a preliminary budget. Pre-agreement meetings,with follow-up documentation sent to all parties, is key to this stage of the project. Agreement An agreement will be prepared jointly by the Developer and the Public Works Department and approved by the City Attorney prior to presentation to the City Council for consideration. The Agreement must be approved by City Council prior to any work on the project other than scope. Funding An agreement shall stipulate a maximum dollar contribution by the City which shall not be exceeded without City Council approval. The report presented to the City Council for consideration must include all costs associated with the project. Such costs would typically include design, soils engineering and testing, surveying, utility costs, project administration, inspection, and a project contingency as well as the actual construction bid. Following approval by the City Council and receipt of all bonding and insurance requirements, the developer may issue a "notice to proceed" and the Public Works Department will issue an Encroachment Permit. Term The agreement shall have a defined term and will terminate if no action is taken. Minimum Requirements The agreement will stipulate the following based on the type of work occurring: 1. Prevailing wage requirements 2. Non discrimination provisions 3. ADA requirements 4.

Bid The project must be advertised and sealed bids opened by the developer or consulting engineer with a procedure similar to that used by the Public Works Department with the exception that a representative of the Public Works Department will participate as an observer. Award Prior to issuing a "notice to proceed," the contract award must be authorized by the City Council if the City is asked to provide additional funding. Construction The developer may administer the contract or he may delegate the administration to a consulting engineer. The developer or his delegate is in full charge of the project with the exception that the Public Works Department Construction Division must approve all change orders or bid item overruns. The City Manager must approve any change orders or overruns exceeding 50%of the contingency.
