12/612091 AGENDA REPORT E16 TO: Karen P. Brust, City eev FROM: Grant Taylor, Development Services Director SUBJECT: Consideration of Approving a Third Amendment to Personal Services Agreement for Code Enforcement Services (Anderson -Penna Partners, Inc.) RECOMMENDATION: By motion, approve a Third Amendment to Personal Services Agreement with Anderson - Penna Partners, Inc. for Code Enforcement Services in an amount not to exceed $54,450 from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012. The City is continuously striving to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of its code enforcement program while weighing the benefits of outsourcing this permanent full-time position. Major code enforcement categories include: Debris; Property Maintenance; Building Maintenance; Vehicles; Signs; Animals; Home Occupations; Construction; Noise; Fences; Trash Cans; Trails; NPDES; Trees; and other Municipal Code Violations. The City has previously operated with one full-time position for approximately five months during the hybrid position recruiting process. An adequate level of service could not be provided with only one full-time position. As a result, response times increased, follow-up inspections decreased, weekend code enforcement services were lost, and the one code enforcement officer was often overwhelmed with multiple requests. A total of 1,028 cases were opened in FY 2010/11, and 1,070 cases were opened in FY 2009/10. Code Enforcement cases usually exceed 100 per month with one month resulting in 204 new cased being opened. In March 2011, staff was directed to conduct a Request for Proposals (RFP) for code enforcement services by the former City Manager. This effort was conducted in order to fill the second code enforcement officer position via outsourcing. The vacancy is a full-time position. The City conducted the RFP process and received four proposals. The following four consulting firms bids included: • Anderson -Penna Partners, Inc. - $55 an hour with four officers to choose from; • Willdan Corporation - $55 an hour with one officer available; • CSG Consultants - $65 an hour with two officers to choose from; • Charles Abbott Associates - $75 an hour with three officers to choose from. Agenda Report December 6, 2011 Page 2 Anderson -Penna has been providing contract code enforcement services forthe last twelve months pursuant to two agreements. The most recent agreement was executed on April 1, 2011, and amended two times extending to December 31, 2011. As an option, the City received a proposal from Charles Abbot Associates (Attachment 4) to provide code enforcement services that offer to reduce their hourly rate of services from $75 to $55. At this time staff recommends continuing code enforcement contract services with Anderson -Penna as the current contract staff person has been trained and is performing well. The City Council may consider pursuing another Request for Proposals (RFP) prior to the next fiscal year. In order to fill this critical vacant position pending a final decision regarding contracting for these services verses an in-house code enforcement officer, staff is recommending that the City Council approve a third amendment to the Personal Services Agreement with Anderson -Penna (Attachment 1), extending code enforcement services to June 30, 2012. This third amendment may be terminated without cause by either party with ten day notice. COMMISSIONIBOARD REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATIONS: None The approved Fiscal Year 2011112 budget salary savings from the currently vacant code enforcement position for January 1, 2012, to June 30, 2012, is $54,555. The proposed contract amendment with Anderson Penna from January 1, 2012 until .lune 30, 2012, is for up to twenty-five weeks and would not exceed $54,450 (i.e.25 weeks X 40 hours per week equals 990 hours at $55 an hour totals $54,450). The approved Fiscal Year 11112 budget includes two full-time code enforcement officer positions. The position is currently filled and the other vacant. $109,110 is included in the Fiscal Year 11112 budget for the vacant position. NOTIFICATION: Anderson -Penna Partners, Inc.

We are a California corporation that has been in business since 2005, and are a woman -owned certified small business enterprise. We have three primary locations: Orange County California, Oakland California, and Mesa Arizona. Our current clients range from transportation authorities such as the Orange County Transportation Authority and North Coast Railroad Authority to various cities, including Carson, Torrance, Laguna Beach, Tustin, Newport Beach, and Calabasas in California and Coolidge, Kearny and Tucson in Arizona, In addition to the Code Enforcement personnel assigned in this proposal, 10 staff members{operate out of our Orange County office in Laguna Beach. Services performed include staff augmentation, such as contract Code Enforcement, City Engineering, Traffic Engineering, and Program Management. We provide services tailored to agencies' specific needs, such as. federal compliance for ARRA and. other federally funded projects, plan review/plan check, mapping, energy efficiency consulting, construction management and inspection, structural engineering, water resources engineering, and transportation engineering. Additional. services AndersonPenna provides include: financial consulting, impact fees and rate studies, assessment engineering, CFD and assessment district annual administration, reimbursement review of developer constructed infrastructure, and grant administration. AndersonPenna Partners, Inc. offers the City: • Code Enforcement Staff with experience in San Juan Capistrano • Highly skilled staff capable of coordinating and managing existing programs as well as developing innovative approaches to enhance their efficiency. • A firm committed to providing staff augmentation services to cities and improving the quality of life in the cities where we work. • Staff that has conducted code enforcement and management seminars for universities and the Statewide California Association of Code Enforcement Officials (SCACEO). • An emphasis on community -oriented problem solving and neighborhood and community improvement techniques. • Results oriented. managers, team leaders, and team players with proven consensus building, and customer service. Code Enforcement Expertise/Related Experience AndersonPenna has established a team of code enforcement professionals that has over 125 years of combined experience in this field. Our team has expertise in all aspects of the code enforcement process, including handling citizen complaints, case documentation and preparation, and assisting legal staff when voluntary compliance is not achieved. Our team's expertise is evidenced by the projects listed below, and justifies our ability to provide the City with effective code enforcement services. Further, the projects listed indicate experience in the areas where the City needs service: planning and zoning, public 2jPage Page 9 On -Call Code Enforcement Proposal City of San Juan Capistrano nuisance abatement, grading, building, and permit processing, Additionally, our staff has extensive experience in providing excellent customer service. That, and our ability to respond on short notice, adapt to the work environment and get the job done, will enhance the City's code enforcement efforts. As indicated, our staff has served both large and small agencies with proven success, Additionally, many of our past projects have involved developing and implementing public education programs regarding code enforcement and neighborhood improvement. It has been found at many agencies that these types of programs assist in obtaining voluntary compliance which is ultimately everyone's goal. We would bring this strength to the City's program. The AndersonPenna team consists of individuals that have taught code enforcement officer certification classes throughout California. This team could be available to assist the contract officers on an as - needed basis, Additionally, our firm has adequate staffing available to provide coverage in the event that an AndersonPenna assigned staff member is on leave or there is a need for additional personnel. Our staff's past record of successfully completing projects in the County of orange, City of Soledad and the City of Los Alamitos indicates that we have the ability to add additional services or adapt to new situations on short notice. Code enforcement is one of the most challenging services that local and county governments are asked to provide. A person that has a violation may get upset when he or she is contacted by the code enforcement officer, and the person that is complaining about the violation may get upset if the violation is not quickly corrected. Government agencies may receive complaints regardless of what actions they take. That is why it is critical that the firm chosen for this contract has staff with proven abiiity to obtain voluntary compliance with a minimum number of complaints. Our project history demonstrates that our staff has this ability. Related Experience: Following is a summary of work that our staff has performed.
