PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION ACTIONS – MEETING OF APRIL 17, 2013 The City Council is requested to review the Parks and Recreation Commission actions of their meeting of April 17, 2013. Recommendation: Receive and file. E. THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE CONSULTANT SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH WILLDAN ENGINEERING TO ASSIST IN CLOSING OUT PREVIOUS HOME IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS AND RE- APPROPRIATE $40,000 OF UNEXPENDED FUNDS FROM THE PRIVATE/SPECIAL CONTRACT SERVICES ACCOUNT (MANAGEMENT SERVICES) TO PRIVATE/SPECIAL CONTRACT SERVICES ACCOUNT (COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT - HOUSING PROGRAMS) The Third Amendment with Willdan Engineering will authorize the consultant to conduct additional inspections for potential substandard work on past Home Improvement Projects (HIP) projects and provide the additional services to close-out previous HIP projects. Willdan will facilitate any close-out work to ensure that items are limited to work outlined in the original contract. The revised total budget estimate for the project close-out is $65,000, which requires the re-appropriation of $40,000 from the Private/Special Contract Services account (Management Services Department) to the Private/Special Contract Services account (Community Development Department – Housing Program); $7,000 for service delivery and $33,000 to correct potential substandard work. If the amendment is not executed and the additional funds are not allocated, this work would likely remain unaddressed. Since the HIP participants are on fixed incomes and they would be unable to do the repairs at their own expense. Recommendation: 1. Review and approve the Third Amendment (Attachment “A”) in the amount of $7,000 to the consultant services agreement with Willdan Engineering (Attachment “B”) to provide housing consultant services to close-out previous Home Improvement Program (HIP) projects; 2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the Third Amendment with Willdan Engineering (Willdan) with an amount not to exceed $7,000; and City Council Agenda May 7, 2013 Page 4 3. Re-appropriate $40,000 (i.e., $7,000 for Willdan’s Third Amendment, $33,000 to close-out remaining substandard work) of Private/Special Contract Services account (Management Services Department) to the Private/Special Contract Services account (Community Development Department – Housing Programs). F. VISA CARD REPORT The City Council is requested to review, receive and file the Visa Card Report. Recommendation: Receive and file. G. ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 13-4909 – APPROVAL OF PAYMENT OF BILLS The City Council is requested to adopt Resolution No. 13-4909 authorizing payment of bills. Recommendation: Adopt Resolution No. 13-4909. 8. UNFINISHED BUSINESS – None 9. NEW BUSINESS A. ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION NO. 13-4908 TO UPDATE THE HOUSING ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN (Attachments: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H) Per state law, cities are required to update their housing elements periodically (i.e., every four to eight years) and the state’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is required to review draft housing elements and report to the City preparing the draft whether it meets a number of state statutes applicable to local housing element content. HCD will “certify” adopted local elements that do so. City Council adoption of the proposed housing element update will establish policies and programs to meet the housing needs of all segments of the community and to accommodate the City’s share of regional housing need in a manner consistent with state statutes. Moreover, adoption of the housing element update would entail a significant step toward an update of the Temple City General Plan as a whole, which is a priority project scheduled to begin in the next fiscal year. Presentation: Community Development Director Persico City Council Agenda May 7, 2013 Page 5 Recommendation: 1) Hold a public hearing to allow for public input on the proposed City of Temple City 2008-2014 Housing Element, and on the Draft Initial Study of Environmental Impact and Proposed Mitigated Negative Declaration; 2) Approve the Initial Study of Environmental Impact and adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration; and 3) Adopt Resolution No. 13-4908 approving the City of Temple City 2008-2014 Housing Element. 10.
