Authorization of an Agreement with Urban Corps of San Diego for
Citywide Parks Sanitation Services during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution authorizing an agreement with Urban Corps of San Diego for citywide parks
sanitation services in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, in an amount not to exceed
$350,000 for an initial six-month term.
Executive Summary/Discussion
On May 1, 2020, the City Council directed staff to allow access for passive use to city beaches,
most city parks and city preserves with trails in accordance with the applicable COVID-19
response plans and protocols (Resolution nos. 2020-072, 2020-073 and 2020-074). The city
must ensure that the bathrooms and common areas within these sites are disinfected at least
every two hours, or as needed, based upon use, to adhere to the County of San Diego's public
health order and related protocols intended to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Staff met that challenge by authorizing an extra work proposal from one of its grounds
contractors to perform the required sanitation under an existing parks maintenance services
agreement. The $7,000-per-week cost of these services was paid for from Parks Maintenance
funds in the Parks & Recreation Department’s Operating Budget.
However, the renewed access to these parks sites, as well as to the school fields the city runs
under joint use agreements, resulted in increased patronage, which in turn caused an increased
need for sanitation services.
Considering the COVID-19 pandemic has continued for several months and has no anticipated
date of conclusion, staff determined the “extra work” approach would no longer be feasible
under the not-to-exceed spending limit of the city’s parks maintenance services agreement
with the grounds contractor, Park West Landscape. Staff now recommends the council
authorize a professional services agreement with Urban Corps of San Diego County for the
ongoing sanitizing of bathrooms and amenities required under the health orders and protocols.
Urban Corps of San Diego County is a nonprofit corporation whose goal is to provide
underserved young adults, ages 18-26, “with the tools to expand their career opportunities
through education, life skills training, and paid work experiences on projects that benefit our
communities.” Urban Corps of San Diego is considered a quasi-government agency and has
successfully provided similar maintenance services for the city in the past.
Sept. 15, 2020 Item #1 Page 1 of 23
On July 13, 2020, a request for an exemption to the city’s competitive bidding process was
approved by the city’s finance manager, in keeping with Carlsbad Municipal Code Section
3.28.110 (A & F) [Exhibit B]. This code section provides a bidding exemption for emergency
procurements for construction, goods or services as well as for services obtained from a quasi-
public agency.
Fiscal Analysis
According to the current scope of work, staff anticipates a base cost of $316,800 during the
initial six-month term of the agreement to complete the required sanitizing throughout the
referenced sites managed by the Parks & Recreation Department. As the public health orders
continue to be modified, increased cleaning may be needed in areas such as playgrounds and
picnic shelters, which are currently closed. Consequently, staff recommends including $33,200
for additional services, as needed. Staff therefore recommends authorizing a professional
services agreement in an amount not to exceed $350,000 for an initial six-month term.
The city manager may extend the agreement for two additional six-month terms subject to
funding availability, based on the city’s needs and Urban Corps’ satisfactory performance. The
cost of this contract will be tracked and recorded as a COVID-19 expense and will be covered
with budget appropriated from the $3 million General Fund reserve previously allocated for
COVID-19 expenses. All COVID-19-related expenses will be considered for state and federal
government reimbursement as applicable.
Next Steps
Staff will direct Urban Corps of San Diego to commence services upon execution of the
agreement. Staff will administer and manage the agreement during the initial six-month term
and process amendments to extend the agreement for six-month terms, as necessary.
Environmental Evaluation (CEQA)
The proposed action is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act in
keeping with State Guidelines Section 15301 (c) - “Existing Facilities,” which exempts repair and
maintenance of public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use.
Public Notification
Public notice of this item was posted in keeping with the Ralph M. Brown Act and it was
available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours before the scheduled meeting date.

insurance specified to be carried by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to
protect Contractor. If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate,

Either party upon tendering thirty (30) days written notice to the other party may terminate this
Agreement. In this event and upon request of City, Contractor will assemble the work product and

the False Claims Act applies to this Agreement and, provides for civil penalties where a person
knowingly submits a false claim to a public entity. These provisions include false claims made
with deliberate ignorance of the false information or in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of
information. If City seeks to recover penalties pursuant to the False Claims Act, it is entitled to
recover its litigation costs, including attorney's fees. Contractor acknowledges that the filing of a
false claim may subject Contractor to an administrative debarment proceeding as the result of
which Contractor may be prevented to act as a Contractor on any public work or improvement for
a period of up to five (5) years. Contractor acknowledges debarment by another jurisdiction is
grounds for City to terminate this Agreement.

or rights provided for by this Agreement will be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction in the
County of San Diego, State of California, and the parties waive all provisions of law providing for

with the purchase order for this Agreement and its provisions, embody the entire Agreement and
understanding between the parties relating to the subject matter of it. In case of conflict, the terms

order as may be directed by the Secretary of Labor as a means of enforcing such
provisions including sanctions for noncompliance:
Provided, however, that in the event the contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened
