ORDINANCE NO. NS-XXX
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA AMENDING CHAPTER 41 OF
THE SANTA ANA MUNICIPAL CODE ADDING
HOUSING OPPORTUNITY STANDARDS AND
PROCEDURES TO ENCOURAGE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF HOUSING THAT IS
AFFORDABLE TO A RANGE OF HOUSEHOLDS
WITH VARYING INCOME LEVELS
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds,
determines and declares as follows:
A. The City of Santa Ana is initiating a request to create a Housing
Opportunity Ordinance to ensure that future residential
development projects contribute to the attainment of the affordable
housing goals set forth in the Housing Element of the City's General
Plan.
B. The Housing Element of the General Plan identifies the long range
plans for housing throughout the city. The Element further
identifies a vision, goals, policies and programs to address housing
issues within the city. The Housing Opportunity Ordinance helps to
implement a component of the Housing Element assisting to play
an active role in the provision of affordable housing within the City
of Santa Ana.
C. Each city in California is required to adopt and implement a
Housing Element as part of its General Plan. The Housing Element
must be updated every eight years and it must establish goals and
policies to ensure that regional housing needs can be met. Chief
among satisfying future housing projections is the need to provide
for housing that is affordable to people who make less than, or only
slightly more than, the county median income. Housing that meets
this criteria is referred to "affordable housing." The current median
income for a family of four in Orange County is $87,200. While the
City is not required to build affordable housing, it must show that
adequate development sites are available for the production of
such housing and it must show evidence of policies that support the
production of affordable housing.
11 A-1
D. The State establishes target housing production goals for each city to
meet through the Regional Housing Needs Assessment or RHNA.
For the 2006-2014 planning period the City of Santa Ana's RHNA
target is 3,393 units. This number is based on regional population
growth estimates and each city is allotted a portion. In addition, the
State establishes the number of units within a range of income
categories which must be provided. For Santa Ana 1,932 of the
3,393 units should be constructed within the moderate, low, very low
and extremely low income categories. The proposed ordinance is
intended to assist the City in meeting a portion of the RHNA
requirement.
E. In 2009, the City adopted the General Plan Housing Element for the
2006-2014 update cycle. This updated Housing Element was also
certified by the State Department of Housing and Community
Development making the City of Santa Ana compliant with State
housing law. The Element establishes a policy framework upon
which goals and implementation measures are based. The
overarching policy statement, as adopted by the City Council,
states: "Santa Ana residents have an equal right and opportunity to
find suitable housing in quality residential neighborhoods that allow
themselves, their families, and neighbors to live the fullest lives.
We support an inclusive community that is multigenerational,
culturally diverse, sustainable, and economically broad. The City
will facilitate the production, rehabilitation, and improvement of
rental and homeownership opportunities at different affordability
levels."
F. Following from the policy statement the Housing Element then
establishes four key issue areas: Housing and Neighborhoods,
Housing Supply and Diversity, Housing Assistance, and Special
Needs. Each of these key issue areas then has goals and policies
in order to implement the Housing Element. The creation of
affordable housing is a recurring theme throughout each of these
key issue areas and is supported through the policy statements and
goals (HE-2.3, HE-2.6, HE-2.8, HE-3.1, HE-3.2, HE-3.3, HE-3.5,
HE-3.7, HE-4.1, HE-4.2).
G. Following the establishment of the goals and policies the City must
also show specific implementation measures, as well as an
estimated time deadline for their completion. The City must also
produce an annual report detailing the progress on each of these
implementation measures, which must be submitted to the State
Department of Housing and Community Development.
Implementation Measure No. 25 of the Housing Element lists a
number of Affordable Housing Incentives, including the potential for
the establishment of an inclusionary housing ordinance in order to
Ordinance No. NS-XXX
11 A-2 Page 2 of 17
create new affordable housing. Inclusionary housing ordinances
are tools used by cities to ensure that a certain percentage of new
housing developments are available at affordable levels. This
requirement can generally be met through the inclusion of such
units within the project itself, rehabilitation or construction of units
off site, or through the payment of an in-lieu fee. The units are
covenanted to ensure that they remain affordable over time. As of
2007 nearly one-third of California jurisdictions had adopted
inclusionary housing programs. At the time that the Housing
Element was drafted it was recommended that the feasibility of an
inclusionary housing ordinance should be studied and implemented
within the 2006-2014 framework.
H. On June 7, 2010, several months prior to the adoption of the
Housing Element, the City Council adopted the Transit Zoning
Code. As part of this action the City Council directed staff to begin
a process to draft an inclusionary housing ordinance for those
properties within the M1 and M2 Industrial Overlay Zones of the
Transit Zoning Code. This direction was given, in part, to address
the community's concerns about the provision of affordable housing
within re-zoned areas of the Transit Zoning Code, as well as to
implement the City's Housing Element and address State
Redevelopment Law.
State law requires that when new housing is constructed within
redevelopment project areas there must also be affordable housing
constructed that equals 15% of the total number of units
constructed within the project area (Health and Safety Code,
Section 33413). Due to the fact that significant areas within the
Transit Zoning Code formerly zoned as Industrial now have the
ability to convert to mixed-use residential development at the
property owners' discretion, the potential exists for a substantial
number of new units to be constructed within these Overlay Zone
areas. As the majority of these areas are located within
redevelopment project areas (Central City, Inter City, North Harbor,
South Harbor, Bristol and South Main) new residential development
would trigger the requirement for new affordable housing
development pursuant to state law. If this new development is not
included within the projects themselves, the Redevelopment
Agency would be responsible for funding and constructing such
housing. The only available funding source for this housing
construction would be affordable housing set-aside monies. Given
the uncertainty of the availability of these funds over the long term,
the burden of the funding of new affordable housing construction
could fall to other funding sources, such as the City's general fund.
It is therefore necessary to ensure that the 15% affordability
Ordinance No. NS-XXX
11 A-3 Page 3 of 17
requirement be captured within the new development themselves
and the Housing Opportunity Ordinance would enable the City to
meet this mandate.
J. Following the adoption of the Transit Zoning Code the City was
awarded a Compass Blueprint Grant from the Southern California
Association of Governments (SCAG) to study new development
opportunities for the Harbor Boulevard Corridor that would improve
access to housing served by transit, as well as to further various
state and regional sustainability goals. This project was also
embarked upon in furtherance of the Housing Element
implementation measure to re-zone areas to create the opportunity
for new housing creation. The Harbor Boulevard Corridor was
specifically identified in the Housing Element as an opportunity area
due to the availability of large underutilized and sometimes vacant
parcels of land and its use as a major transit corridor (Housing
Implementation Program 16). The outcome of the Harbor
Boulevard Corridor Study will also result in the adoption of new
zoning that will allow for the construction of new housing on
property that currently has commercial zoning. Similar to the
Transit Zoning Code M1 and M2 Industrial Overlay Zones, Harbor
Boulevard corridor identified in the Housing Element is located
within a redevelopment project area, North Harbor. The production
of new housing in this area would also trigger the 15% affordable
housing redevelopment requirement. With this in mind, as well as
looking to the future, staff recommended that the Housing
Opportunity Ordinance be developed on a city-wide basis.
K. The draft ordinance was developed with the input of a variety of
stakeholders and interest groups. The draft ordinance, entitled the
Housing Opportunity Ordinance, was presented to the City Council
during a study session held on January 18, 2011. At that meeting
the City Council directed staff to complete the draft document and
begin the public hearing adoption process.
Section 2. Section 41-1900 is added to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code to read in full as follows:
Article XIX - Housing Opportunity Ordinance
Sec. 41-1900. Purpose
This Article establishes standards and procedures to encourage the development

developments that involve an increase in the density otherwise available under
applicable zoning and development standards; a change in land use designation
from a zoning regulation that does not permit residential uses to one that does
permit residential uses; or the conversion of rental units to condominium ownership.
Section 3. Section 41-1901 is added to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana
Municipal Code to read in full as follows:

Project that has obtained a Density Bonus under Article XVI.I of the Santa
Ana Municipal Code.
Section 6. Section 41-1904 is added to Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana

(a) On site units. The primary means of complying with the inclusionary
requirements of this Article shall be the provision of on-site Inclusionary
Units in accordance with Section 41-1901, above. A Developer may only
satisfy the requirements of this Article by means of an alternative to on-site
Inclusionary Units in accordance with the requirements and procedures of
this Section.
(b) Off-site units. Upon application by the Developer and at the discretion of the
City Council, the Developer may satisfy the Inclusionary Unit requirements
for the project, in whole or in part, by constructing a mix of affordable units or
substantially rehabilitating existing rental units. For purposes of providing
off-site units, substantially rehabilitating means rehabilitating a dwelling unit
that has substantial building and other code violations, and has been vacant
for at least 90 days, such that the unit is returned to the City's housing
supply as decent, safe and sanitary housing, and the cost of the work
exceeds twenty-five percent of the market value of the unit after
rehabilitation. The number of substantially rehabilitated units that will be
required under the off-site unit provision will be determined based on a
calculation of the affordability gap associated with on-site provision of the
units. This affordability gap will then be translated into the number of off-site
units that can be produced at a financial gap equal to the affordability gap
associated with on-site provision of the units.

constructing some or all of the required units.
Ordinance No. NS-XXX
11 A-9 Page 9 of 17
(2) More than 20 units. In the case of a Residential Project comprised of
more than 20 residential lots or residential units, the Developer may
apply to pay a fee in lieu of constructing some or all of the required
units, and such application shall be subject to the review and
approval of the City Council, which may grant such the Developer's
request if substantial evidence supports a finding that the cost of
providing Inclusionary Units on-site would substantially exceed the
amount of the applicable in-lieu fee.
(3) Calculation of fee. The amount of the fees allowed by this Section
shall be calculated in accordance with the methodology to be set forth
in the Administrative Procedures. The calculation methodology is
based on the affordability gap associated with fulfilling the required
affordable housing units on site within the proposed Residential
Project.
(4) Timing of payment. The Developer shall pay any in-lieu fees allowed
by this Section in full before issuance of a Building Permit for any
portion of the Residential Project, including any non-residential

requirements of this Article are satisfied, whether through the
provision of Inclusionary Units or through an approved alternative
method.

approved the Inclusionary Housing Plan, and any required inclusionary
Housing Agreement has been recorded.

II. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Orangewood Children's Foundation has submitted a proposal to the City to construct a new
private charter high school for 450 students on two parcels totaling approximately 7 acres.
The campus will be comprised of 5 buildings to support education and 4 buildings to provide
housing for approximately 80 students. The education component will be comprised of a two
and a three story classroom building totaling approximately 46,800 square feet, a two story
administrative/library/student union building totaling 37,200 square feet, a two story
gymnasium totaling 25,800 square feet and a single story, 400 square foot mechanical
equipment building. The residential component will be comprised of two, 3-story and one 2-
story family unit building, serving 80 students in a total of 36,000 square feet and a single

building slabs remain.
Several discretionary actions will be required for the project. In additional of a conditional
use permit for a school, the applicant is requesting two variances: The first variance is to
exceed the maximum building height on one building of the classroom buildings and the
second is for a parking reduction. The applicant has submitted a parking needs assessment,
prepared by Linscott Law and Greenspan. Further, a lot merger/lot line adjustment is being
considered.

2. Approve a Funding Analysis with a total estimated construction cost of $196,900.
DISCUSSION
The Seventeenth Street Triangle is a County owned parcel of undeveloped land along the east
side of the Santa Ana River, north of Seventeenth Street (Exhibit 1). A lease agreement was
approved in 2010 between the City and the County of Orange for the land and the improvements
for the proposed project. The Santa Ana River Vision Plan, which was adopted by the City Council
on August 7, 2006, identified this area as an opportunity to enhance trail access to Edna Park as
well as habitat restoration, interpretive information and scenic improvement to trail users. The
proposed project includes landscaping with native plants, irrigation utilizing reclaimed water and
railing. Add Alternate Two provides for a viewing deck and site furnishings. The improvements will
provide a space for trail users to rest as well as view the existing habitat area.
The project is funded with a State of California California Rivers Parkway Program: Proposition 50
Grant, which provides funding for the restoration and development of river parkways in accordance
with the California Rivers Parkway Act of 2004.
The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on September 22 and 23, 2011 and bids were opened on

2. Award a contract to J.A. Salazar Construction and Supply Corporation, the lowest responsible

construction of Diamond Park Mutual Water Company Water Main Improvements.
3. Approve a Funding Analysis with a total estimated construction cost of $771,000.
DISCUSSION
The Diamond Park Mutual Water Company (DPMWC) is a privately owned water system that
provides domestic water service to approximately 144 residences in the City of Santa Ana. (Exhibit
1). The well serving DPMWC is contaminated with high levels of nitrates and does not meet Title
22 drinking water standards. Moreover, DPMWC does not have regular certified water distribution
operators and cannot afford to purchase a water treatment system. Therefore, the State
Department of Public Health (DPH) together with the DPMWC is requesting that water service be
provided by the City of Santa Ana. In order for service to be provided, water services must be
connected to the Santa Ana public water system. Improvements include distribution mains,
services, hydrants and isolation valves and abandonment of the existing private well. Once
completed, the residents will have access to City water.
In accordance with Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, River and
Coastal Protection Act of 2006 (Proposition 84 Grant) requirements, a resolution was adopted by
the City on July 18, 2011 allowing the City to accept State Grant Funding, construct public water
system improvements and provide servic tQf?m?r customers of DPMWC. Following adoption of
Contract Award For Diamond Park Mutual Water Company
Water Main Improvements
November 28, 2011
Page 2
the resolution, the City received a Letter of Commitment that promises funding and authorizes
construction of the water improvements for DPMWC while awaiting completion of the Proposition
84 Grant funding application.
This project was previously bid in September 2011. Originally, a combination of Proposition 84
Grant funds and a State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan were intended to be used for the project. The
SRF loan required a Disadvantage Business Enterprise goal be applied to the project. Since then,
Proposition 84 has been identified as the sole funding source for this project and the
disadvantaged business goal was no longer required. On this basis, the City Council rejected all
bids and directed staff to rebid with a revised bid package that excluded the SRF requirements
from this project.
The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on October 19 and 21, 2011 and bids were opened on
November 9, 2011. A summary of the bid invitations mailed, the bids received, and the bid results
follows.
Santa Ana Contractors receiving notices: 6

While the City made outreach efforts to Santa Ana contractors regarding the Notice Inviting Bids,
only one requested plans. The five remaining plan holders were telephoned to inquire about intent
to bid. One Santa Ana firm indicated they did not perform the type of work required, one indicated
they didn't received the notice, and the other firms could not be reached.

accordance with unit bid prices for the base bid plus in the estimated amount of $169,120.45
for construction of the Catalina Street Pump Owners Association Water Service Connection
Project.
3. Approve a Funding Analysis with a total estimated construction cost of $245,200.
DISCUSSION
The Catalina Street Pump Owners Association (CSPOA) is a privately owned water system that
provides domestic water service to approximately 54 residences in the City (Exhibit 1). The well
serving CSPOA is contaminated with uranium and does not meet Title 22 drinking water standards.
In addition, CSPOA does not have certified operators and cannot afford to purchase a water
treatment system. Therefore, the State Department of Public Health and CSPOA are requesting
that water service be provided by the City. Improvements include installation of new water services
and abandonment of the existing private well. Once completed, the residents will have access to
City water.
In accordance with Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, River and
Coastal Protection Act of 2006 (Proposition 84 Grant) requirements, a resolution was adopted by
the City on July 18, 2011 allowing the City to accept State Grant Funding, construct public water
system improvements and provide service to former customers of CSPOA. Following adoption of
the resolution, the City received a Letter of Commitment that promises funding and authorizes

construction of the water improvements for CSPOA while awaiting completion of the Proposition 84
Grant funding application.
This project was previously bid in September 2011. Originally, a combination of Proposition 84
Grant funds and a State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan were intended to be used for the project. SRF
loan required a Disadvantage Business Enterprise goal be applied to the project. Since then,
Proposition 84 has been identified as the sole funding source for this project and the
disadvantaged business goal was no longer required. On this basis, the City Council rejected all
bids and directed staff to rebid with a revised bid package that excluded the SRF requirements
from this project.
The Notice Inviting Bids was advertised on October 19 and 21, 2011, and bids were opened on
November 9, 2011. A summary of the bid invitations mailed, the bids received, and the bid results
follows.
Santa Ana Contractors receiving notices: 6
Contractors requesting bidding documents: 15
Bids received: 7
Bids received from Santa Ana Contractors: 0
While the City made outreach efforts to Santa Ana contractors regarding the Notice Inviting Bids,
only one requested plans. The five remaining plan holders were telephoned to inquire about intent
to bid. One Santa Ana firm indicated they did not perform the type of work required, one indicated
they didn't receive the notice, and the other firms could not be reached.
The bids received are as follows:
NAME OF RESPONSIVE BIDDER CITY BID AMOUNT
1. Stephen Doreck Equipment Rental, Inc. Pico Rivera $169,120.45
2. John T. Malloy, Inc. Los Angeles $176,017.80
3. Garcia Juarez Construction, Inc. Brea $ 177,898.00
4. Dominguez General Engineering, Inc. Rosemead $ 187,110.00
5. J. A. Salazar Construction & Supply Corp. La Habra $ 192,228.80
6. Paulus Engineering, Inc. Anaheim $ 219,265.00
7. T.B.U. Inc. Beaumont $ 265,080.00
A total of seven bids were received and all were responsive. The lowest bid was submitted by
Stephen Doreck Equipment Rental, Inc. for $169,120.45, which is below the engineer's estimate of
$337,516. The low bid is a result of the downturn of the economy and the competitive market and
the fact that the Engineer's Estimate was based on the original State Revolving Fund Grant
application.

Amend the demolition contract with J & G Industries, Inc by $400,000 for a total contract amount
of $550,000, in order to provide for the demolition of 1631 North Bristol Street, which is part of
the Bristol and Seventeenth Street widening project.
DISCUSSION
On October 18, 2010, the City Council authorized the Public Works Agency to release a
Request for Proposals (RFP) to qualified firms to provide right-of-way-related services for the
City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
The RFP for the above services was sent to 12 firms who specialized in this field. After review
and evaluation of the 12 proposals by personnel from the Public Works Agency, Community
Development Agency, and the City Attorney's Office, J& G Industries Inc. was recommended.
On April 4, 2011, the City Council awarded a contract to J & G Industries, Inc. for demolition
services in the amount of $150,000 based on projects identified at that time. As part of the
Bristol and Seventeenth intersection widening project, it had been determined that demolition of the
building located at 1631 North Bristol Street will be required.
The contract for the construction of the intersection project has been awarded and the
contractor's work has been placed on hold pending the demolition of the building. The
complicated tenant relocation process associated with this commercial building included
relocating thirteen businesses. The last tenant vacated the premises on November 11, 2011.
This was the first opportunity for the City to inspect the building, conduct surveys, and solicit a
complete bid from J&G Industries for the demolition of the building. After conducting a thorough
inspection and performing the asbestos and lead survey, J&G submitted a demolition bid of
$350,000.
23E-1
Contract Amendment with J &G Industries Inc.
November 28, 2011
Page 2
This bid amount is within the engineer's estimate; however, this bid amount exceeds the
remaining amount available on J&G's contract. In order to meet the funding deadlines imposed
by OCTA and complete the demolition by April 30, 2012, an increase in the amount of $400,000
to the J&G Industries Inc. is required. The alternative to amending the contract is to start a new
RFP process for the services; however, this alternative will delay the demolition of the building
by a minimum of three months and the City will risk losing the Measure M grant funds in the
amount of $3.2 million.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
This is no environmental impact associated with this action.

Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute the attached amendment to
the agreement with URS Corporation for environmental services in an amount not to exceed
$23,235 for a new 24-unit single-family residential development at 1584 East Santa Clara
Avenue, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
In April 2010, Tava Development contacted the City with hopes to re-commence development of
the former Empire Homes 24-unit single family residential development at 1584 East Santa Clara
Avenue. The Tava Development proposal was proposed to be similar in scope, layout and
quality to the project previously proposed by Empire Homes. Due to the potential for significant
environmental impacts, an environmental impact report (EIR) was required for this project
pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act.
A Request for Proposal was circulated to three qualified environmental firms in 2007 as a part of
the Empire Homes proposal. URS Corporation was selected as the environmental consultant
and it thereafter began work on the EIR. URS had nearly completed the draft EIR when, in 2009,
Empire Homes decided to cancel the project due to economic circumstances. Work on the EIR
was discontinued at that time.
An agreement with URS was originally approved in December 2010 in the amount of $48,335.
During the scoping process for the EIR, it was determined that a new initial study would need to
be prepared for the project and additional traffic analysis beyond the original scope of work would
be necessary. As a result, staff is requesting that an amendment to the agreement be executed
with URS in an amount not to exceed $23,235. This agreement will remain in effect until
completion of the EIR. The entire cost of this work has been covered by the developer; and
funds in this amount have already been deposited with the City.

RE: TAVA Development - Request for Change Order for Focused Environmental Impact Report.
Dear Mr. Fregoso:
URS is pleased to continue providing CEQA planning services for the TAVA Development project. NVe
revised our scope of work and cost estimate based on our telephone conversation on July 13, 2011. This
letter presents our revised scope and cost estimate (including subconsultants) for the project and requests
your written authorization to proceed.
Revised Scope of Work
Task I - Project Management
As a result of requested additional services and subsequent scope and schedule changes, the level of effort
associated with project management tasks (project contract revisions and setup, invoicing, and progress
reporting) has increased to be consistent with the approximately four month schedule extension.
Task 2 - Traffic Impact Study Revisions (KOA)
URS' traffic sub-consultant, KOA Corporation (KOA), updated traffic counts at the original locations and
conducted three field reviews to confirm lane widths, geometry, and speed limit signage.
KOA will update the previously prepared and City-approved Traffic Impact Study as agreed to by and
with the City.
Task 3 - Update Biological Resources Technical Memorandum
URS will analyze the previously prepared Biological Resources Memorandum to include a background
literature records search and a field survey and prepare an updated technical memorandum to document
the findings.
Task 4 - Prepare New Notice of Preparation and CEOA Initial Study'
Utilizing the most current CEQA Checklist (Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines) URS will revise the
previously prepared Initial Study document. The original Initial Study was prepared in accordance with
the CEQA Checklist in 2008. The current CEQA Checklist includes a requirement to analyze greenhouse

gases (GHG), thus the new Initial Study will address GHG. Following the City's review and comment on
the draft Initial Study, URS will revise and incorporate comments as appropriate. URS will prepare a
Notice of Preparation (NOP) for the project. URS will also prepare a Notice of Completion and
Environmental Document Transmittal form for submittal to the Office of Planning and Research, State
Clearinghouse Office. The submittal will include fifteen (15) hard copies of the Initial Study document,
one copy of the Notice of Preparation, and one copy of the Notice of Completion and Environmental
Document Transmittal form. URS will verify that the submittal is filed and catalogued with the State
Clearinghouse in a timely manner to begin the 30 day review process of the NOP and Initial Study
document. Any public comments received on the NOP and/or Initial Study will be addressed in the
Environmental Impact Report (EfR), as necessary.
URS attended a public scoping meeting on June 1, 2011 for the TAVA Development project. The
objective of the meeting was to solicit comments from the public regarding potential environmental
effects that should be addressed in the Draft EIR. URS assisted the City in recording comments received
at the scoping meeting, and also prepared a City-addressed comment card for the public to provide written
comments. URS prepared a tabular summary of the comments received at the meeting, which was
addressed in the Draft EIR, as necessary. It was anticipated that the City. would provide all exhibit figures
for display, and secure the venue for the meeting. The public scoping meeting was "open house" style,
with stations set up for questions and comments from the public. URS provided one Environmental Staff
for the meeting.
Task 5 - Ut)date Draft EIR
The Draft EIR will be updated to reflect the conditions presented in the current technical studies. Public
comments on the NOP wilt also be incorporated into the Draft EIR, as appropriate. In addition to the
technical revisions, the public scoping summary will be revised to reflect the second NOP, as well as
updated references and appendices. URS will analyze six alternatives, including the No Build
Alternative. URS will also analyze the traffic queues as a result of school-related traffic nearby at J. Muir
Elementary School, and its effects on the proposed project. URS will provide 23 hard copies (20 for City,
3 for Applicant), 25 CD's (10 for City use, 15 for State Clearinghouse submittal), and 15 hard copies of
the Executive Summary for State Clearinghouse submittal. URS will also prepare the Notice of
Completion and Environmental Document Transmittal form for submittal to the State Clearinghouse.
URS will prepare and submit the package to the State Clearinghouse via overnight delivery. URS will
also provide PDF files to the City, with the Draft EIR broken into individual sections, for the City to
upload onto the City website. It is assumed that the City will send any notices to a newspaper of general
circulation, post the site, and mail hard copies (provided by URS) of the Draft EIR to any interested
parties/agencies.
Cost Estimate
The time-and-materials cost estimate to perform the work described herein is $231235.00
Attachment A includes the detailed fee estimate.
Thank you and we look forward to continue working with the City on this important project. Should you
have any questions regarding this proposal, please call me at (714) 835-6886.

Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached agreement with Mx
Live to provide event production services for the downtown Cinco de Mayo and Fiestas Patrias
events for a two-year period, subject to non-substantive changes approved by the City Manager
and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
For 12 years, Santa Ana has conducted an annual two-day Cinco de Mayo Fesitval in historic
downtown Santa Ana, which is Orange County's largest Cinco de Mayo event. The 2011 Festival
included Top Latin Billboard entertainment throughout the entire weekend including Fobia,
Mexican Institute of Sound, Gustavo Galindo, Ceci Bastida and Grammy winning world music act,
Ozomatli. The event also included food and non-food vendors, carnival rides, and a beer garden.
For 34 years, Santa Ana has conducted an annual two-day Fiestas Patrias event, which is Orange
County's largest Mexican Independence Day street festival. Each year over 200,000 visitors attend
the weekend festivities to enjoy food and non-food vendors, a carnival, "El Grito" ceremony,
parade, film festival and Top Latin Billboard entertainment lined up during the entire weekend. An
important aspect of these events is to promote the Santa Ana downtown area and local merchants.
On September 6, 2011, City Council authorized the release of an RFP for event production
services and on September 9, 2011 staff issued the RFP to 14 potential event production
proposers. A pre-proposal conference was conducted on September 20, 2011 and three vendors
submitted proposals for consideration. Live Marketing, Mars Entertainment and MX Live each
submitted proposals for review. A five member evaluation committee consisting of representatives
from Parks, Recreation and Community Services, Community Development, Planning and
Building, the City Manager's Office and the Police Department evaluated and rated the three
proposals.
25B-1
MX Live Agreement
November 28, 2011
Page 2
The proposals were evaluated based on the vendor's Responsiveness to the RFP (30%),
Experience of Firm and Personnel (30%), and Past Performance on similar contracts (40%). The
results of the evaluation process are as follows.
Vendor Score
MX Live 416
Live Marketing 309
Mars Entertainment 295
MX Live was rated highest, scoring 416 out of a maximum 500 points. Live Marketing scored 309,
and Mars Entertainment scored 295 points. The evaluation committee rated MX Live the highest
as a result of the quality of their proposal and the company's experience conducting similar events
around California, including past Santa Ana Cinco de Mayo and Fiestas Patrias events.
MX Live will work in cooperation with City staff to develop and produce the overall brand, develop
and implement a detailed promotional strategy, develop and implement a sponsorship plan, and
execute the event production, coordination, and artistic management of the events. No City funds
will be used to produce these events - MX Live will be responsible for developing and
implementing a sponsorship plan that provides all funding.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

EQUIPMENT DESIGN & SPECIFICATIONS REPORT: DRAINPACTm CATCH BASIN INSERT
Description/Design/Engineering
Full Trash Capture
United Storm Water's DralnPacT"' meets the full trash capture definition of the RFP as it is capable of trapping all
particles larger than 5 mm in size.
Equipment & Design Elements
United's DrainPacTm is a treatment control BMP product that captures and treats urban runoff before it enters the
storm drain system (see attached Technical Drawings. This multi-layer filtration devise Is installed in drop inlets or
curb inlets in a manner that does not interfere with lateral line water flow. General specifications of this product are
as follows:
• Frame assembly will be constructed from 12-gauge 304 stainless steel
• Filter liner will be fabricated from a combination of 4 oz non-woven polypropylene filter cloth and PVC
mesh
• Support basket will be constructed from a high density polymer rated at 850 Ib/sq It
This product is custom made in-house to fit any shape or size of catch basin utilizing single or multiple units as
required. The smallest workable catch basins for this product would be 6" x 6. The largest size of a single
DrainPacTm unit would be 48" x 48" for drop inlets and 82" x 12" for curb inlets. Catch basins larger than these
standard sizes would be fitted with multiple units.
Installation Specifications
The DrainPacT"' could be used in conjunction with a CleanScreen"A Automatic Retractable Screen (ARS) and/or
Connector Pipe Screen (CPS) for added effectiveness based on the level of trash and debris that commonly
accumulates at the site. Field inspections of catch basins will determine if this product is appropriate for each
respective storm drain. For drop inlets the product will be gravity held in place and will rest on the existing catch
basin grate shelf. For curb inlets the product will be mounted to the forward wall of the catch basin below the flow
line.
Materials
The DrainPacTM is constructed from non-corrosive materials with the frame and mounting brackets made from
stainless steel; the filter liner is composed of PVC mesh (sides only) for overflow bypass, and non-woven
polypropylene (bottom only) for treating petroleum hydrocarbons; and the support basket Is made from a high
density biaxial geogrid material. See attached Technical Drawings for drop inlet and curb inlet configurations and
material specifications.
Flow Rating
Site appropriate maintenance frequencies of this product will help to ensure effective and trouble free functioning
of this product. Insufficient inspection and/or cleaning frequencies that allow an excess amount of material to
accumulate in the filter liner can significantly affect the flow rate of water through the product. See Filter Testing
Report for observations regarding head loss and Flow Rate Testing and Flow Rate Capacity reports for additional
data.
Estimated Design Life
Design life of the DrainPacTAI is dependent on the flows to the site. Average life of a properly maintained unit is
three to five years for the filter liner before requiring liner change-out, and the stainless steel frame it reusable for
liner replacement which is generally only required due to mishandling/abuse of the product.

25C-10 EXHIB11" A
Performance Effectiveness
Targeted Pollutants
This product has demonstrated both in the field and in the laboratory to be an effective structural treatment control
BMP for capturing trash, sediment, gross solids, oil and grease, and total metals. Recent testing of the DrainPacTm
was conducted by California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo resulted in 83% to 91% removal
efficiency of fine suspended solids with the best removal observed at lower flow rates, and oil and grease removal
efficiency varied from 40% to 80% under the test conditions. Higher rates of oil and grease removal can be
achieved by adding an absorbent sock around the periphery of the products frame (optional). See attached Filter
Testing Report for additional information.
Trash Capture & Storage Capacity
A DrainPacTm has a trash capture and storage capacity equivalent to the area of each unit. For drop inlets the
product will cover the entire length and width of the drain inlet point and standard filter depths are 12" yet can/will
be fabricated shallower to prevent the device from obstructing the outlet pipe of the catch basin. For curb inlets the
product will be fabricated to the length of the curb inlet opening with 12" wide by 12' deep standard dimensions.
Wider and/or shallower devices will be fabricated if/as required based on catch basin configuration.
Overflow or Bypass Flow Capacity
Drop inlet configurations of the DrainPacTm are designed with a center overflow bypass port to prevent flooding in
the event that a unit is full of trash and is no longer filtering. Curb inlet configurations of this product do not require
any type of special overflow bypass feature. If a unit is full of trash and Is no longer filtering water entering the
catch basin will merely flow over the 12" wide device into the catch basin.
Maximum Overflow or Bypass Flow Capacity
The overflow bypass features of the DrainPacT'" described have been proven in the field to withstand a 10-year
storm event without causing flooding.
Siting, Operational & Maintenance
Installation Process
Before the start of installation United's Project Manager will coordinate with the County's Project Manager to
discuss the proposed installation schedule by service zones. For work performed in areas that encroach on traffic
right-of-way, an encroachment permit will be obtained from the appropriate entity and United will develop a written
and approved traffic plan. When proposed work zones have been accepted United will install DrainPacsT"' in the
designated storm drains.
Devices installed in drop inlets will be gravity held in place and will rest on the existing catch basin grate shelf. For
this configuration Installation will require United's Service Staff to remove the traffic grate using a 'traffic grate
puller" tool and will require approximately five minutes to install each device. Devices installed in curb inlets will be
mounted to the forward wall of the catch basin approximately 4' below the flow line or as required based on catch
basin design and/or other Storm Water Devices that may be installed in the same catch basin. This configuration
will require drilling of the interior of the catch basin and Installation of support/mounting brackets (see attached
Technical Drawing) and will require approximately fifteen minutes to install each device.
Site Specific Measurements
The County would have to provide United with storm drain maps, inlet location where the product is proposed for
installation, and approximate lengths and widths of drop inlet openings and lengths of curb inlet openings in order
to provide Entities with cost estimates. Devices would thereafter be custom made to fit each respective storm
drain based on measurements taken by United's Service Staff. This device could be used in conjunction with a
CleanScreen"m ARS and/or CPS for added effectiveness based on the level of trash and debris that commonly
p. 4
25C-11
accumulates at the site. Field inspections of catch basins will determine if this product is appropriate for each
respective storm drain.
Regulatory Permits Required for Installation
No regulatory permits are required for the installation of this product.
Maintenance Requirements
For best performance of the DrainPac'm United Storm Water recommends cleaning by means of industrial vacuum
(usually does not require confined space entry) once during the dry season (June-September) and as often as
monthly during the wet season (October-May) for effective filtration and to prevent the possibility of flooding.
Average number of cleanings is three to four per year. Cleaning is particularly important prior to the wet season
and after the first storm event of 3/4° of rain to prevent the possibility of flooding. Actual scheduling will be based
on United recommendations and customer approval based on county stormwater management ordinances and the
storm drain flows and loads subjected to the site.
Per the local Stormwater Management and Discharge Control Ordinance, BMPs at manned facilities must be
inspected by the discharger before and following predicted rain events, and BMPs at unmanned facilities must be
inspected by the discharger at least once during the rainy season and at least once between each rainy season.
For best performance of the DratnPacTM United Storm Water recommends inspections as often as once during the
dry season (June-September) and in the wet season (October-May) between or during scheduled cleaning events
(depending on actual established schedule). Average number of separate inspections Is three per year. Actual
scheduling will be based on United recommendations and customer approval based on county stormwater
management ordinances and the storm drain flows and loads subjected to the site. Inspection services will ensure
that the product is functioning property and will aid in establishing/changing cleaning schedules accordingly. Any
items in need of repair/replacement should be performed as soon as it is safe to do so. If failure of the product
indicates that it is inappropriate or inadequate to the circumstances, the product must be modified or upgraded to
prevent any further failure in the same or similar circumstances.
Durability
The DrainPacTm is constructed from high quality materials that can withstand normal wear and tear. Any damage
that may be caused by fire, sharp objects, vandalism, or other forms of product mistreatment can be repaired by
replacing the filter liner and/or support basket as needed utilizing the original frame. The durability of this product
will in no way be affected by external factors such as street sweeping and car parking. United Storm Water is not
aware of any incidents of vandalism of the product and may be due in part to the need of special tools for removing
traffic grates and/or manhole covers in order to access the product.
Replacement Parts & Life Expectancy
Any damage that may be caused by fire, sharp objects, vandalism, or other forms of product mistreatment can be
repaired by replacing the filter liner and/or support basket as needed utilizing the original frame. Not only are our
standard rates for new filters economical, yet filter replacements (filter liner and support basket material) that may
be required due to normal wear and tare can be provided at 50% of the cost of a same size new DrainPac7m. No
other replacement parts are required.
Life expectancy of the DrainPacTm is dependent on the flows to the site. Average life of a property maintained unit
is three to five years for the filter liner before requiring liner change-out, and the stainless steel frame it reusable for
liner replacement which is generally only required due to mishandling/abuse of the product.
Warranty Coverage
United Storm Water agrees to repair and or replace the frame assembly of this product at no cost to the purchaser
for a period of ten (10) years from the date of delivery should failure occur during normal use. The purchaser of
this product must be aware that the filter cloth and support basket may become damaged or tom due to retention
of items such as sharp objects, corrosives, or enflamed items. Such damage falls outside of the coverage of this
p. 5
25C-12
warranty yet may be replaced at a discounted rate to the purchaser. See attached DrainPacT"" Warranty.
Aesthetics & Safety
For both drop inlet and curb inlet configurations the DralnPacTM is out of sight and not easily visible by pedestrians.
No part of an installed device can come in contact with a pedestrian and is considered "safe".
Uniqueness of Device
The DrainPacTM is unique in that it is both versatile and economical. All products are custom made to fit any shape
or size of catch basin and United Storm Water will design filter configurations for special/uncommon applications.
The standard filter cloth used for this product is 4.0 oztsq yd, yet heavier fabric weights are available upon request.
This product is also easy to clean and does not necessarily require the use of additional media for absorbing
petroleum hydrocarbons (depending on site conditions), yet absorbent sock material can be easily added to the
frame as an option.

Regulatory Permits Required for Installation. Confined space entry permitting is required
on all drain installations. 40-hour HAZWOPER training is required for storm drain entry.
Maintenance Requirements. Preventative Maintenance of regular street sweeping will
prevent debris from building up in front of the unit.
Suggested Yearly Maintenance. Inspections consist of visually inspecting the unit from
street level and performing an opening-lock function check.
Visual Inspection:
1. Clean away any built-up debris and foreign object debris. Remove any visible debris
that may be on, in front of, and nearby the unit.
2. Look for any visible signs of vandalism or damage that may compromise the unit's
ability to properly function. Attempted vandalism and slight damage should be
inspected closely to ensure no future damage may result.
Opening-Lock Function Check:
I . Using a pen or screwdriver, insert it through the perforated openings at the center of
the main screen in order to make contact with the sail (locking mechanism).
2. Push forward until the screen unlocks and hinges open.
3. Place your opposite hand against the screen so it does not close, slowly remove the
pen or screwdriver from hole.
4. Slowly guide the screen down just before it locks, remove your hand letting the
weight of the screen lock itself.
5. If the unit is not opening and closing to the standard in which it was installed and the
unit is not hindered by debris or F.O.D. (foreign object debris) then the unit may be
damaged and replacement may be necessary. Contact West Coast Storm, Inc. for
further assistance.

Durability. The West Coast Storm Screen locking mechanism prevent tampering and
opening of the unit during street sweeping. No components of the unit protrude beyond the
curb face whether in the locked or open position. Therefore, parked cars, moving cars,
bicyclists, or pedestrians are not exposed to any protruding safety hazards and cannot damage
the unit as a result. The unit's stainless steel construction allows us to offer a ten year
warranty without hesitation.
Availability of Replacement Parts and Life Expectancy. Manufacturing all components
in-house is key, we are not subject to outside vendors or distributors out of inventory. In the
event, replacement parts are needed, we will have your item readily available. Life
expectancy is minimum 25 years. Stainless steel components should last the lifetime of the
drain itself.
Waranty. All parts and labor is covered for 10 years.
Aesthetics and Safety. All manufacturing is performed with aircraft precision equipment.
No manufacturing of units are performed in the field. Units are delivered assembled and
ready for installation.Al1 parts are put through a timesaver deburring rough edges, resulting
in a product that has no sharp edges. No components of the unit protrude beyond the curb
face whether in the locked or open position. Therefore, parked cars, moving cars, bicyclists,
or pedestrians are not exposed to any protruding safety hazards and cannot damage the unit
as a result.
Uniqueness. The locking mechanism operates on horizontal pressure, not vertical pressure;
this design keeps the units free of debris and sediment. The CAM gear design of the locking
mechanism means no springs that break, no pulley or counter weights that require frequent
maintenance, adjustment, or replacement. The ARS design has few moving pants, a simpler
design is a more efficient, ease of maintenance, and working design. The gate closes upon
water receding, no drainage of weeping buckets or cleaning out of operation components are
needed.

Estimated design life of equipment. Minimum 25 years.
B. Performance Effectiveness for Connector Pipe Screens and Catch Basin Inserts.
Performance. The purpose of the Connector Pipe Screen is designed to retain all trash larger
than 5mm in the catch basin, it prevents trash and debris from entering the storm drain lateral
keeping the trash inside the catch basin. When trash is prevented from entering the lateral
system a reduction in clogged and standing trash and debris within drain laterals result. Trash
reduction meets requirements approved by the County of Los Angeles Regional Water
Quality Control Board. Capturing trash and enabling water flow keeps the storm drain system
operating at its engineered design capacity.
Trash Capture. Capacity is determined by the dimensions of the catch basin, which is
utilized as the receptacle to hold trash captured. For example, a three and a half foot catch
basin "V-depth" will hold an eighteen inch tall screened device with a G inch bypass. The
device is designed to capture trash up to the device's bypass within the catch basin.

Connector Pipe Screen Device Installation Process.
1. Bring the CPS unit into the catch basin and set in front of outlet hole. The unit may .
require that you detach the bypass component depending on the size of the catch basin
opening. Establish a definite location and then mark your holes for drilling. Make sure
to mark in a spot that will allow for unit removal through the predrilled keyhole slots.
2. Remove the CPS unit from the installation wall. Drill 3/8" holes where you marked.
Make sure to drill straight into the catch basin wall to avoid mounting difficulties.
3. Hammer 3/8"035" stainless steel anchor bolts into the holes.
4. After all of the anchor bolts are hammered into place, attach the CPS onto the anchor
bolts to assure a proper fit.
5. Remove the bypass top screen with bypass supports. Then position the drop down panels
inside the body of the CPS unit to estimate for custom cuts. The drop- down panels are
designed to bridge the gap between the bottom of the CPS unit and the bottom of the
catch basin which is usually concave. Carefully mark onto the drop down panel where
your custom cuts should go.
6. Make cuts using a compact grinder. Be sure to sand off any sharp edges.
7. Once the drop down panels are custom cut to conform with the catch basin surface, attach
the panels to the body of the CPS unit using bolts provided.
8. Replace the bypass roof and vertical legs to the CPS body. Tighten with bolts provided.
9. Tighten the nuts on all of the anchor bolts and assure a tight fit.

Site-specific Measurements Required.
West Coast Storm, Inc. requires minimum information prior to measuring, only drain
location. In the even there is not clear data on drain locations, we can locate them upon
municipality approval. Information provided to municipalities will include GPS coordinates,
address, as well as catch basin measurements. We can and will work with municipal staff to
acquire the proper information needed to import into a GIS mapping layer database.
Equipped with an industry leading ACCESS database helps us export the information to
create GIS mapping layers.
Regulatory Permits Required for Installation. Confined space entry permitting is required
on all drain installations. 40-hour HAZWOPER training is required for storm drain entry.
Maintenance Requirements.
Preventative Maintenance. Maintenance crews should regularly check catch basins and
establish a maintenance schedule based on the level of debris collected. Some areas will
require more frequent cleaning than others. Catch basins should be cleared of debris to allow
for water to freely flow through the screens.
Pressure-washing the unit may additionally benefit but is not necessary.

Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute the attached cooperative
agreement with the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), in an amount not
to exceed $5,541,700 for preliminary engineering, subject to nonsubstantive changes
approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
2. Approve an appropriation adjustment to correctly allocate Federal Transit Administration
(FTA) Section 5307 transit funds in the amount of $4,433,360 budgeted in the Select
Street Construction Revenue Fund for Federal Grants-Direct (accounting unit 05917002-
52000) to the Measure M Street Construction Revenue Fund for Other Grants
(accounting unit 03217002-52040) and the appropriation of the same $4,433,360 from
the Select Street Construction Expense Fund (accounting unit 05917660-66220) to the
OCTA Transitway Project - MOS3 Expense Fund (03217661-66220).
DISCUSSION
The Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove are working collaboratively with OCTA on the
Santa Ana and Garden Grove Fixed Guideway Project. On May 12, 2008, the OCTA Board
allocated $5.9 million in Step 2 funding to Santa Ana for planning and development of the fixed
guideway project. Shortly thereafter, the City and OCTA entered into a cooperative agreement
to define their respective roles and responsibilities for project delivery. This effort is nearing
conclusion. An environmental impact report/environmental assessment is being prepared which
includes studies of no-build alternatives and two streetcar alternatives. Staff plans to release
the document for public review in January 2012, and to bring the issue to the City Council in
spring of 2012 for selection of a preferred alternative.
On November 22, 2010, the OCTA Board allocated an additional $5,541,700 to Santa Ana for
Fixed Guideway Preliminary Engineering (PE) and Pre-PE activities. The funding split included
80 percent FTA Section 5307 funds ($4,433,360), 10 percent M2 Project S funds ($554,170),
and a 10 percent local city match ($554,170). On March 7, 2011, the City Council authorized
25D-1
Cooperative Agreement With OCTA
November 28, 2011
Page 2
staff to execute a second cooperative agreement with OCTA clarifying the roles of the two
agencies needed to meet the federal New Starts Program guidelines and requirements for
project development activities. The appropriation adjustment is required because the FTA
Section 5307 funds were previously budgeted incorrectly.
Prior to advancing the project into preliminary engineering, OCTA staff requested the Board's
approval to establish a formal federal grant recipient relationship between FTA, OCTA, and the
Cities of Santa Ana and Garden Grove to expedite local project delivery in the context of the
federal New Starts process.
On September 26, 2011, the OCTA Board determined that OCTA should be identified as the
federal grantee and that the cities should be grantee subrecipients for purposes of applying to
the FTA New Starts funding program for the fixed guideway project. The OCTA is a proven
entity to FTA in terms of delivering complex capital projects with the use of federal funds and is,
therefore, in a better position than the cities to attract FTA capital funding for the project. In its
role as federal grantee, OCTA would contribute its technical expertise for (1) project delivery,
and, (2) compliance with the FTA oversight process. This not only reduces the administrative
burden for the City, but helps to gain FTA's confidence that the project will be managed well.
The proposed new cooperative agreement defines the roles and responsibilities related to
funding and project delivery between OCTA and Santa Ana for the preliminary engineering
phase of the Santa Ana and Garden Grove Fixed Guideway project. The new agreement
establishes that OCTA will serve as the FTA grantee for the project and that Santa Ana will
serve as the subgrantee. Consistent with the previous agreement, Santa Ana will act on behalf
of its partner city, Garden Grove, for purposes of project administration. Garden Grove will
continue to be an active participant in the project development and community outreach
processes.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The new cooperative agreement doesn't change the previously approved funding allocation of
$5,541,700 for this project. Funds for the local match of 10 percent for PE in the amount of
$554,170 to be paid in increments of $277,085 in FY 11/12 and FY 12/13 are available in
Measure M Street Construction (accounting unit 03217662-66220, project 126766).

Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Pacific
Services, Inc., to provide a Point-to-Point High-Capacity Wireless Millimeter Band 80GHz
System with three years of maintenance and support in an amount not to exceed $63,000.
DISCUSSION
The City of Santa Ana Information Services Division is seeking to install a high speed point to
point wireless link between City Hall and the Regional Transportation Center. The current data
connectivity to the Regional Transportation Center is limited to a single T-1 data link provided by
AT&T which runs at 1.5Mbs and is currently at capacity for a significant portion of each day. This
high speed wireless link is required to support the Santa Ana Police Department access the new
Video Surveillance System that is being provided by the Orange County Transportation Authority.
It will also improve access to enterprise and departmental systems for the CDA WORK Center
Staff, Police Substation Staff, and Public Works Staff that manage the Center. This wireless
system will employ BridgeWave Gigabit Ethernet Millimeter Radios operating in the FCC licensed
band between 81 - 86 GHz.
A competitive procurement process was conducted to solicit proposals from 80GHz point-to-point
high-capacity wireless system vendors. A "Request for Proposal" (RFP) was developed which
defined the system requires, the equipment to be employed, and the scope of work as well as
proposal evaluation criteria. Due to the high complexity and specialized type of equipment and
the degree of engineering involved, only a very limited number of vendors are in the business of
providing the City's needed services. The equipment manufacturer was contacted and they
provided a list of all qualified resellers/installers/maintainers for the equipment type being sought.
In August 2011, the RFP was posted for the public on the City's website and sent to each of the
five qualified vendors. The City received three (3) written proposals. An evaluation team,
25E-1
Agreement For Point-To-Point High-Capacity
Wireless Millimeter-Band 80ghz System
November 28, 2011
Page 2
consisting of staff representing Police and City Information Services, reviewed and evaluated the
proposals.
The evaluation team made its selection recommendation based on pre-established criteria with
possible max scoring points. Points were assigned to each Vendor's proposal based on several
categories of requirements defined in the RFP. The following table shows evaluation criteria and
maximum points for each assessment category:
Evaluation Criteria Possible Points
System Design with supporting material and 15
Installation Plan (with traininal
References and BridgeWave certifications 30
Systems Support and Maintenance 25
Pricing 30
Total 100
Below is a summary of the assessment points rated for each vendor:
Vendor Evaluation
Pacific Services, Inc. 96 points
Full Spectrum Communications 88 points
Vectus, Inc. 65 points
Based upon this, the evaluation team's assessment is that Pacific Services, Inc. is the best
qualified to provide the Point-to-Point High-Capacity Wireless Millimeter Band 80GHz System to
the City and recommends that Pacific Services, Inc. be awarded the agreement to provide
engineering & installation, equipment, on-going maintenance and support. Note that Pacific
Services' pricing was the lowest of all proposals received.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available for the Point-To-Point High-Capacity Wireless Millimeter-Band 80GHz
System in the FY2009 UASI Grant Program (12514407-62300-10427301182-3501).

Systems and Turbo Data Systems Ink., and it was determined that Phoenix Group Information
Systems performed satisfactorily and the charges for their services were 20% less per citation
compared to Turbo Data Systems Ink..
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $100,000.00 are available in the Police Department, Traffic Division
Fund (account no. 01114405-62300), Public Works - Roadway Cleaning Fund (account no.

Adopt a resolution approving the extension of Conditional Use Permit Nos. 2008-27 and 2008-31.
DISCUSSION
In November 2008, the City Council approved Conditional Use Permit Nos. 2008-27 and 2008-31
to allow the construction of a new Rite-Aid Pharmacy at 115 North Harbor Boulevard. The
conditional use permits allowed a drive through window operation for the pharmacy as well as a
Type 21 (off-sale beer, wine and distilled spirits) Alcohol Beverage Control license. Due to a
significant shift in the local, state and national economies over the past three years, Rite-Aid made
the decision to abandon the project. The property owner had been in negotiations with CVS
Pharmacy in an effort to occupy the site. Unfortunately, they too made the decision to not pursue
development on the site. The owner is now in discussions with Walgreen's in an attempt to secure
their business for the property. The negotiations are on-going; however, the entitlements for the
site are ready to expire.
Entitlements for development projects expire two years from the date of approval unless
construction has commenced. Since construction has yet to begin, the applicant would like to
maintain the entitlements for the conditional use permits and is requesting another extension.
Section 41-647 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code (SAMC) requires the City Council to approve any
request for an extension of an entitlement. The first extension requested by the applicant was
approved by the City Council on November 15, 2010 for a one year time period. Although the
project has yet to be submitted into building plan check, the applicant does have parties interested
in the site. The applicant is hopeful that a shift in economic conditions will allow plans to be
submitted within the next few months. As a result, the Planning Division and Police Department
recommend that the entitlements for the pharmacy building be extended by a period of one year
from date of approval to November 15, 2012.

B. On November 15, 2010, the City Council approved a one (1) year extension
of Conditional Use Permit No. 2008-27, as conditioned, and Conditional
Use Permit No. 2008-31, as conditioned.
C. The applicant has requested another extension for Conditional Use Permit
Nos. 2008-27 and 2008-31. The applicant is hopeful that a shift in
economic conditions will allow plans to be submitted within the next few
months.
D. It is the Planning Division's policy to recommend one year extensions,
mainly in an effort to encourage the construction of previously approved
projects. As a result, the Planning Division and Police Department
recommend that the entitlements for the pharmacy building be extended by
a period of one (1) year to November 15, 2012.
E. The extension request came before the City Council on November 28,

1. Adopt a resolution authorizing the implementation of the "Vantage Care" Retirement Health
Savings Plan ("RHS") and designating ICMA-RC as the administrator of the RHS plan.
Bargaining units that elect to voluntarily participate in the RHS plan will transfer funds from
their current Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan to establish the trust required under the plan;
2. Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute the attached agreement
with ICMA-RC to establish and administer the plan for a period of five years with provision
for year-to-year extensions, contingent upon Council approval, and to execute any other
documents required to establish the trust and implement the plan for each bargaining unit

additional actions as necessary to maintain the City's participation in the plan, maintain

and retired bargaining unit members, on behalf of the City.
DISCUSSION
Each bargaining unit (SEIU, FBA, FMA, POA, PMA, SAMA, EM, and CASA) has established a
Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan for its members for the purpose of partially subsidizing the cost
of retiree health insurance premiums. The plans (except for POA) are administered by the City, at
no cost to the bargaining unit or members. It has recently come to the City's attention that the
annual retiree health subsidy amounts deposited by the City are construed as a future unfunded
liability for the City.
55B-1
ICMA-RC Retiree Health Savings Plan
November 28, 2011
Page 2
In the Memorandum of Understanding between the City and The Santa Ana Police Management
Association ("PMA") for fiscal year 2004 - 2008, the City agreed to establish a voluntary program
for employees to contribute unused sick leave, vacation, or other employee benefits on a pre-tax
basis. Since that time, the City and PMA have explored various alternatives to address this issue
and determined that converting the subsidy plan to a retiree health savings plan would benefit both
the City by eliminating the unfunded liability associated with retiree medical plans pursuant to
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) reporting requirements for "Other Post
Employment Benefits" (OPEB) and benefit the PMA members.
The PMA has requested the City proceed with implementation steps required to adopt the ICMA-
RC "Vantage Care" retiree health savings plan. All other bargaining groups are aware of this plan
and the City would make this plan accessible to all bargaining units on a voluntary basis. Under
this plan, bargaining unit members are allowed to accumulate assets to pay for health insurance
and out-of-pocket medical expenses at retirement. An bargaining unit member may contribute
unused sick leave, vacation, and other benefits to an account, which is tax-free at deposit and tax
free at withdrawal when used to pay for medical expenses. Additionally, the existing medical
retirement subsidy funds for participating bargaining units will be deposited into the trust and
distributed equitably to current and retired bargaining unit members. Each bargaining unit will
determine how the existing funds will be split among their membership. Any future negotiated City
contributions for participating bargaining units will be deposited into the trust.
The plan will be administered by ICMA-RC at no cost to the City.
Therefore, the City proposes the creation of a trust to be administered by ICMA-RC, a 39-year-old
company that provides retirement savings plans, products and services to over 8,700 public sector
agencies with more than 900,000 participants. ICMA-RC will assess to participant accounts an
annual account fee of $25 ($6.25/quarter) and an Asset fee of 40 basis points (0.40% of the
account) quarterly. Reimbursement requests will be handled directly by a third-party administrator
and no longer handled by the City of Santa Ana.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA FOR ADOPTION OF THE ICMA-RC
VANTAGECARE RETIREMENT HEALTH SAVINGS PLAN
ACCESSIBLE TO ALL BARGAINING GROUPS
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. Each bargaining unit (SEIU, FBA, FMA, POA, PMA, SMA, EM and CASA)
of the City has established a Medical Retirement Subsidy Plan for its
members for the purpose of partially subsidizing the cost of retiree health
insurance premiums. These plans (except for POA) are administered by
the City, at no cost to the bargaining unit or its members. The City
recently learned that the annual retiree health subsidy amounts deposited
by the City are construed as a future unfunded liability for the City.
B. The establishment of a retiree health savings plan for the employees
serves the interests of the City by enabling it to provide reasonable
security regarding such employees' health needs during retirement, by
providing increased flexibility in its personnel management system, and by
assisting in the attraction and retention of competent personnel.
C. The City has determined that the establishment of a retiree health savings
plan serves the above objectives and would benefit both the City by
eliminating the unfunded liability associated with retiree medical plans,
and be of benefit to the bargaining unit members.
D. PMA has requested the City to proceed with implementation steps
required to adopt the ICMA Retirement Corporation's VantageCare
Retirement health savings plan. ICMA-RC has been in business 39 years
and provides retirement savings plans, products and services to over
8,700 public sector agencies with more than 900,000 participants. ICMA-
RC will assess to participant accounts an annual account fee of $25.00
and an asset fee of 40 basis points quarterly.
E. The City will make this plan accessible to all bargaining units on a
voluntary basis. Under this plan, bargaining unit members are allowed to
accumulate assets to pay for health insurance and out-of-pocket medical
expenses at retirement. A bargaining unit member may contribute unused

sick leave, vacation, and other benefits to an account, which is tax-free at
deposit and tax-free at withdrawal when used to pay for qualified medical
expenses.
F. The existing medical retirement subsidy funds for participating bargaining
units will be deposited into the trust and distributed equitably to current
and retired bargaining unit members. Each bargaining unit will determine
how the existing funds will be split among their membership. Any future
negotiated City contributions for participating bargaining units will be
deposited into the trust.
G. The plan will be administered by ICMA-RC at no cost to the City.
Reimbursement requests will be handled directly by a third party
administrator and no longer handled by the City of Santa Ana.
Section 2. The City hereby adopts the ICMA-RC VantageCare Retirement
Health Savings Plan. The City Manager and Executive Director of Personnel or their
respective designees are hereby authorized to execute any documents required in
furtherance of the establishment of this health savings plan.
Section 3. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption by
the City Council, and the Clerk of the Council shall attest to and certify the vote adopting
this Resolution.

Adopt a resolution that amends the City's basic Classification and Compensation Plan
(Resolution 82-110) to create a part-time job classification.
DISCUSSION
Earlier this year, the consulting firm of Management Partners, Inc. was hired to review the City's
budget and recommend methods to reduce costs and increase revenues. A Budget Stabilization
Plan was developed that included suggestions on restructuring the provision of City services,
either through outsourcing or internal reorganizations and job classification changes. One of the
recommendations was to civilianize the Training Section in the Police Department by using part-
time, retired police officers instead of full-time, active duty police officers to conduct training
programs.
In response to this recommendation, the Interim City Manager is proposing the creation of a new
part-time job classification titled Police Training Facilitator. The classification will be responsible
for developing and presenting training programs to sworn and non-sworn employees in the Police
Department and assisting full-time employees with classroom set-up, video production and
statistical data collection and analysis. If incumbents are properly certified, they will provide
instruction in topics including firearms, use of force, pursuit/emergency driving, and first aid/CPR.
With the addition of this part-time job classification, the Police Department will have the
opportunity to assign duties currently performed by full-time personnel to retired staff working on
a part-time, non-benefitted basis, thus resulting in potentially considerable savings to the City.

Adopt a resolution supporting the mission of the "Occupy" Organization relating to the nation's
economic crisis.
DISCUSSION
The nation's current fiscal crisis has united a number of citizens who have formed the "Occupy"
Organization. This organization's mission is to galvanize public support for solutions to the
economic problems plaguing our country. The Occupy Organization has identified sustained
unemployment, growing income disparities, banking system failures, unjust tax systems, and
corporate influence in politics as contributing factors to the widespread economic instability in our
nation.
The Occupy Organization also calls on Congress to take proactive efforts to create jobs, adopt
meaningful regulations of banks and corporations, and to retain local government revenues such
as community development block grants that sustain local public services. The attached
resolution is an action of support for the Organization's mission and efforts.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA SUPPORTING THE MISSION AND GOALS
OF THE "OCCUPY" ORGANIZATIONS RELATING TO THE
CAUSES OF THE NATION'S ONGOING ECONOMIC
CRISIS
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. The People of California and of Santa Ana are suffering from an ongoing
economic crisis that threatens their health and financial security; and
B. Members of Occupy movements throughout the nation and Santa Ana
community members are frustrated by the continuing economic crisis that
threatens individual, family, and City finances, and our community's quality of
life, and are participating in Occupy protests to make their voices heard; and
C. The reasons for these protests include sustained unemployment, growing
income disparity, banking system failures, stalled earning power, unjust tax
systems, and corporate influence in politics that all contribute to ongoing
wealth disparities; and
D. The causes and consequences of the current economic crisis erode
confidence in the social contract upon which the Constitution of the United
States of America is based; namely, the ability of Americans to come together
and form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure
the blessings of liberty for all, allowing every American to strive for and share
in our nation's prosperity through cooperation and hard work; and
E. This prolonged economic downturn has hurt nearly all Americans, in the
areas of wealth loss, unemployment, and housing access, and it has taken an
even greater toll on people of color and women. Women are 29% more likely
to be poor than men. The poverty rate for single mother families has
increased to 40.7%. Economic gains made by people of color since the Civil
Rights Movement have been substantially reduced by the Great Recession.
Caucasian Americans experienced a net wealth loss of 16 percent from 2005
to 2009, African Americans lost about half of their wealth and Latinos lost two-
thirds of their wealth in this same period; and
55E-3 Resolution No. 2011-XXX
Page 1 of 2
F. More than 25 million Americans are unemployed and seeking work or working
part-time because they are unable to secure full-time employment; more than
50 million Americans are living without health insurance; and, more than one
in five American children are growing up in households living in poverty
without sufficient resources to meet basic survival needs, such as food,
clothing, and shelter; and
G. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), in its report, a "CDC Health
Disparities & Inequalities Report - - United States, 2011" documents that
income inequality in the United States is the highest among advanced
industrialized nations, with wide-spread inequities in U.S. health outcomes by
income, race, and gender; and
H. One of the largest problems dragging down our economy is the foreclosure
crisis, with many owners struggling to obtain loan adjustments and too many
banks with flawed review procedures; and
The County of Orange, in its 2011 Community Indicator Report, documents
that: (1) the economic recession continues to dramatically affect Orange
County's low income families, (2) in 2009-2010 there was an 18% increase in
the number of pre-kindergarten through 12th grade students who were
identified as living in unstable housing conditions, (3) based on student
enrollment, the County has proportionately more homeless and unstably-
housed students that the statewide average and all California peers
compared, and (4) an estimated one in six Orange County residents have no
health insurance.
Section 2. The City of Santa Ana hereby adopts this Resolution so as to
support the mission and goals of the "Occupy Santa Ana" organization and to recognize
its right to the peaceful and lawful exercise of its First Amendment rights done in
furtherance of its stated goals and objectives. The City does not condone actions that
infringe upon the lawful rights of others, obstruct or interfere with the efforts of law
enforcement to protect such rights, or cause personal injury or property destruction.
Section 3. The City of Santa Ana requests our Congressional leaders to generate
solutions for economically distressed Americans, specifically to:
1. Support job creation, substantial investments in the nation's critical physical and
technological infrastructure and to reduce the Nation's deficit by adopting fiscal
policies with equitable corporate and individual taxation.
2. Encourage the banking and financial sector to commence more reasonable and
flexible lending practices that will further stimulate economic growth and job
creation, in addition to the adoption of new rules concerning, and vigorous
Resolution No. 2011-XXX
Page 2 of 2 55E-4
investigation and prosecution of, individuals and corporations that violate the
fraud, theft and securities laws.
3. Retain or increase community-building block grants for local schools and social
services and protect public education from devastating cuts and prevent tuition
levels that block fair access to higher education.
Section 4. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption by
the City Council, and the Clerk of the Council shall attest to and certify the vote adopting
this Resolution.
