EXECUTIVE SUMMARY •The Surplus Lands Act (SLA) (Gov. Code, § 54220 et seq.) governs the disposition of City-owned property that is no longer needed for the City’s use, and requires cities to declare property as “surplus land” or “exempt surplus land” prior to disposing of it. This declaration is a procedural prerequisite only and does not authorize any sale, lease, or transfer of the subject property. •The City owns a 1.11-acre public parking lot (Public Parking Lot) in the Village Commercial Zoning District, assigned assessor parcel number (APN) 773-078- 034. Approximately 0.24 acres of the Public Parking Lot at the northeast corner of Public Parking Lot, along Avenida Bermudas, is proposed to be declared as “surplus land” under the SLA, as 0.24 acres will no longer be necessary for the City’s use as a public parking lot. The approximately 0.24 acres is depicted in Exhibit A attached to the proposed Resolution. The remaining approximately 0.87 acres must remain for public parking use. •State Guidelines provide that, if the City will continue to use only a portion of its property, then the SLA applies to the other portion of its property no longer needed for the City’s use. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 1 11 •Staff recommends Council adopt a resolution to declare approximately 0.24 acres located along Avenida Bermudas, identified in Exhibit A of the Resolution, as “surplus land,” and authorize the City Manager or designee to execute and administer the necessary notices and other actions required under the SLA. FISCAL IMPACT – None. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS Existing Parking Capacity The City owns approximately 0.24 acres (10,450 square feet) located along Avenida Bermudas in the Village Commercial Zoning District, depicted in Exhibit A attached to the proposed Resolution (the “Land”). The Land is a portion of an existing surface public parking lot, which is an approximately 1.11-acre surface public parking lot (Public Parking Lot), generally bounded by Avenida Navarro to the west, Avenida Bermudas to the east, and Avenida Montezuma to the south, and identified as APN 773-078-034. The City periodically conducts parking studies and surveys throughout the various commercial zones, including the Village, to assess current and projected parking needs. According to the City’s most recent parking study, completed on October 17, 2006, and subsequent survey completed on February 11, 2020, the existing public parking supply exceeds the current demand in this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District. The most recent study and survey may be accessed on the City’s internet website at the following links: https://www.laquintaca.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/314/635338594527270000 (See page 22) https://laqlaserweb.laquintaca.gov/WebLink/DocView.aspx?id=531791&dbid=1&repo=Ci tyofLaQuinta&cr=1 (See Page 126) The City is currently undergoing a follow-up “Village Parking Study and Analysis,” overseen by the City’s Design and Development Department and conducted by Walker Consulting (2026), which, among other items, is reviewing the anticipated future replacement parking capacity sufficient to serve public parking demand currently served by the Public Parking Lot. While the follow-up parking study and analysis is not yet final and only in draft form, preliminary data suggests only 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773-078-034) will need to remain for use as public parking to service this area of the Village. Additionally, in the event that the follow-up parking study and survey, or a separate future parking study, for this area of the Village identifies an increased future demand for public parking that was accommodated by the approximately 0.24 acres on the Public Parking Lot to be declared as “surplus land,” staff has identified City-owned property, identified as 12 APN 773-076-018 and located to the west of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773-078-034), as available replacement parking capacity that the City could immediately activate for use as a surface public parking lot area. A map depicting the location of this potential replacement parking area is shown in Attachment 2 to this Staff Report. General Background on the Surplus Land Act (SLA) The SLA governs the disposition of City-owned property that is no longer needed for the City’s use and requires cities to declare such property as “surplus land” or “exempt surplus land” prior to disposition of it, which includes any sale or long-term leases of City-owned property. If surplus land does not fall into a category of “exempt surplus land,” then it qualifies as “surplus land.” Government Code section 54221(f)(1) defines "exempt surplus land" as land that falls within one or more specific statutory categories enumerated therein. It has been determined by Staff, after consulting with the City Attorney, that the approximately 0.24 acres that comprises the Land does not fall within any such category. This 0.24-acre portion of the Public Parking Lot, however, may be declared as “surplus property” without the City having to relinquish the 0.87 acres still needed for the City’s use. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), the state agency with jurisdiction over the SLA, promulgated guidelines (final version issued August 1, 2024) (HCD SLA Guidelines) that provide guidance regarding the implementation of and compliance with this law. Specifically, Section 104(a)(2) of the HCD SLA Guidelines provides that, if a local agency will continue to use a portion of its real property for the agency’s use, then the agency must comply with the Act with respect to the portion of the real property not necessary for the agency's use. Furthermore, Section 104(a)(2) provides that a local agency may issue a “Notice of Availability” that includes reasonable conditions or restrictions, as provided in section 202(a)(2)(D)(iv), noting that a portion of the agency’s land will continue to be used for agency’s use. Staff proposes Council to follow the guidance in Section 104(a)(2), such that, if the 0.24- acre Land is declared as “surplus land,” the remaining 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot will expressly remain for the City’s use (i.e., “agency’s use”) as public parking serving this area of the Village. In furtherance of this approach, the draft Resolution expressly provides that the remaining 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot is neither subject to that Resolution nor subject to the determination that the Land is “surplus land” as defined in the SLA. Finally, if the Council declares the 0.24 acres as “surplus land,” the SLA then has a process to be followed. In summary, a “Notice of Availability” must be sent to HCD and specified entities, which then have 60 days to notify the City whether they have any interest in negotiating for the possible purchase of the Land. If any interest is provided, the City is required to engage in good faith negotiations for a period of at least 90 days. 13 Following these steps, the City must provide HCD with a notification detailing the Notice of Availability process. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines (14 Cal. Code Regs., § 15000 et seq. (“CEQA Guidelines”)), adopted pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Res. Code, § 21000 et seq.(“CEQA”)), administrative activities of the City, which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, are not “projects” under CEQA. Here, the declaration of the Land as “surplus land,” without being attached to any particular development project, has no direct or indirect physical change to the environment. Thus, any action taken by the City declaring as “surplus land” the approximately 02.4 acres is not subject to CEQA. (CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c)(3).) Even if the declaration of the Land as “surplus land” were determined to be a “project” under CEQA, it is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because there is no possibility that the action taken by the City will have a significant effect on the environment. As proposed, the action of the City is administrative and required pursuant to the SLA. Because the proposed action is not related to a specific development project, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the action taken by the City will have a significant effect on the environment. Furthermore, none of the exceptions to categorical exemptions apply due to the fact that the action by the City is only an administrative action as required by the SLA, and (a) the Land is not within or part of a particularly sensitive environment, (b) the City action would not have any cumulative impact to the environment as it is not part of any specific development project proposal, (c) there are no unusual circumstances that would attach to the administrative action of the City, (d) the Land is undeveloped (serves as a surface public parking lot) and does not have any historic or scenic resources attached to it, and (e) the Land is not located on a hazardous waste site. As such, no exceptions to a categorical exemption set forth in Section 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines would apply. Finally, to the extent applicable, pursuant to Section 15312 of the CEQA Guidelines, a sale of any surplus land is exempt from review under CEQA. Accordingly, no further environmental review is required. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect not to adopt the proposed resolution and not to declare as the approximately 0.24 acres (the Land) as surplus land; however, HCD requires SLA compliance prior to any disposition of this 0.24 acres.

Map Depicting APN 773-076-018 and Public Parking Lot 14 RESOLUTION NO. 2026 – XXX A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING AS SURPLUS LAND APPROXIMATELY 0.24 ACRES LOCATED ALONG AVENIDA BERMUDAS IN THE CITY OF LA QUINTA, CALIFORNIA WHEREAS, the City of La Quinta (the "City") owns approximately 0.24 acres (10,450 square feet) located along Avenida Bermudas in the Village Commercial Zoning District, located in the City and more particularly depicted in Exhibit A attached to the Resolution (the “Land”); and WHEREAS, the Land is a portion of Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 773-078-034, which is an approximately 1.11-acre surface public parking lot, generally bounded by Avenida Navarro to the west, Avenida Bermudas to the east, and Avenida Montezuma to the south (the “Public Parking Lot”); and WHEREAS, according to the City’s most recent parking study and survey, completed on October 17, 2006 and February 11, 2020 respectively, the existing public parking supply exceeds the current demand in this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District; and WHEREAS, the City is undergoing a follow-up “Village Parking Study and Analysis,” overseen by the City’s Design and Development Department and conducted by Walker Consulting (2026), which, among other items, is reviewing the anticipated future replacement parking capacity sufficient to serve public parking demand currently served by the Public Parking Lot; and WHEREAS, based upon the most recently completed parking study and survey, as well as the anticipated follow-up parking study and survey, approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot will need to remain for use as public parking to service this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District; and WHEREAS, in the event that the follow-up parking study and survey, or a separate future parking study, for this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District identifies an increased future demand for public parking that was accommodated by the Land, the City-owned real property identified as APN 773-076-018, located to the west of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773-078-034), provides available replacement parking capacity that the City could immediately activate for use as a surface public parking lot area; and WHEREAS, the Surplus Land Act, California Government Code section 54220 et seq. (the "Act" or “SLA”), requires that, before a local agency, which includes cities, may “dispose” of its real property that is no longer needed for the “agency’s use,” the agency's governing body must formally declare that the real property is either "exempt surplus land" ATTACHMENT 1 15 Resolution No. 2026-XXX Surplus Land Declaration – 0.24 acres along Avenida Bermudas Adopted: June 16, 2026 Page 2 of 5 or "surplus land" (all as defined in the Act) at a regular public meeting, supported by written findings, prior to any disposition (Gov. Code, § 54221); and WHEREAS, Government Code section 54221(f)(1) defines "exempt surplus land" as land that falls within one or more specific statutory categories enumerated therein, and it has been determined by the City that the approximately 0.24 acres that comprises the Land described in this Resolution does not fall within any such category; and WHEREAS, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”), the state agency with jurisdiction over the Act, has promulgated guidelines with the final version issued August 1, 2024 (The “HCD SLA Guidelines”) that provide guidance regarding the implementation of and compliance with the Act; and WHEREAS, Section 104(a)(2) of the HCD SLA Guidelines provides that, if a local agency will continue to use a portion of its real property for the agency’s use, then the agency must comply with the Act with respect to the portion of the real property not necessary for the agency's use; furthermore, Section 104(a)(2) of the HCD SLA Guidelines provides that a local agency may issue a “Notice of Availability” that includes reasonable conditions or restrictions, as provided in section 202(a)(2)(D)(iv), noting that a portion of the agency’s land will continue to be used for agency’s use; and WHEREAS, the remaining approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot shall remain for the “agency’s use” as public parking serving this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District; as such, the remaining approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot is neither subject to this Resolution nor subject to the determination that the Land is “surplus land” as defined in the Act; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 15378(b)(5) of the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines (14 Cal. Code Regs., § 15000 et seq. (“CEQA Guidelines”)), adopted pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Res. Code, § 21000 et seq.(“CEQA”)), administrative activities of the City, which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment, are not “projects” under CEQA. Here, the declaration of the Land as “surplus land” without being attached to any particular development project, has no direct or indirect physical change to the environment. Thus, this action taken by the City is not subject to CEQA. (CEQA Guidelines, § 15060(c)(3).) Even if the declaration of the Land as “surplus land” were determined to be a “project” under CEQA, it is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because there is no possibility that the action taken by the City will have a significant effect on the environment. As proposed, the action of the City is administrative and required pursuant to the SLA. Because the proposed action is not related to a specific development project, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the action taken by the City will have a significant effect on the environment. Furthermore, none of the exceptions to categorical exemptions apply due to the fact that the action by the City is only an administrative action as required by the SLA, and (a) the Land is not within or part of a particularly sensitive environment, (b) the City action would not have any cumulative impact to the environment as it is not part of any specific 16 Resolution No. 2026-XXX Surplus Land Declaration – 0.24 acres along Avenida Bermudas Adopted: June 16, 2026 Page 3 of 5 development project proposal, (c) there are no unusual circumstances that would attach to the administrative action of the City, (d) the Land is undeveloped and does not have any historic or scenic resources attached to it, and (e) the Land is not located on a hazardous waste site. As such, no exceptions to a categorical exemption set forth in Section 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines would apply. Finally, to the extent applicable, pursuant to Section 15312 of the CEQA Guidelines, a sale of any surplus land is exempt from review under CEQA. Accordingly, no further environmental review is required. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of La Quinta to adopt, as follows: SECTION 1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference. SECTION 2. The City Council of the City of La Quinta hereby finds and determines that the Land, comprised of the approximately 0.24 acres located along Avenida Bermudas in the Village Commercial Zoning District and more particularly depicted in Exhibit A attached to the Resolution, is no longer necessary for the City's use and is hereby declared “surplus land” pursuant to Government Code section 54221(b)(1) under the SLA. This declaration is expressly a partial-parcel surplus land declaration consistent with Section 104(a)(2) of the HCD SLA Guidelines. SECTION 3. The remaining approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773-078-034) is and shall continue to remain for the City’s use as a public parking lot for use as public parking to service this area of the Village Commercial Zoning District. As such, the remaining approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773- 078-034) is neither subject to this Resolution nor subject to the determination that the Land is “surplus land” as declared in Section 2 of this Resolutions. Furthermore, because the remaining approximately 0.87 acres of the Public Parking Lot (APN 773-078-034) is and shall continue to remain for the City’s use, this approximately 0.87 acres is not subject to the Act. SECTION 4. The City Manager or designee is hereby authorized to take any and all required and appropriate actions pursuant to the SLA and HCD SLA Guidelines as result of the declaration of the Land as “surplus land,” including the preparation and transmittal of a “Notice of Availability” to all entities designated under Government Code Section 54222 and any other applicable provisions of the SLA, using HCD's prescribed form (SLA Guidelines, Appendix A). The City Manager or designee is similarly authorized to administer any and all procedures required under the SLA as applicable to the Land being declared as “surplus land.” This authorization does not constitute approval of any sale, lease, or other disposition of the Land, as any such disposition shall require separate City Council review and consideration following receipt from HCD of a “Determination Letter” (as defined in the HCD SLA Guidelines) confirming SLA compliance. SECTION 5. The City Council finds, for the reasons set forth in the Recitals above, that the declaration of surplus land set forth in Section 2 of this Resolution is not a “project” 17 Resolution No. 2026-XXX Surplus Land Declaration – 0.24 acres along Avenida Bermudas Adopted: June 16, 2026 Page 4 of 5 under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and even if it were a “project,” the declaration is categorically exempt from environmental review under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15312, and no exceptions to a categorical exemption set forth in Section 15300.2 of the CEQA Guidelines apply. Any subsequent proposed project or proposed development, if any, of the Land will be subject to a separate environmental review under CEQA appropriate to the nature and scope of any subsequent proposed project or proposed development. SECTION 6. The findings set forth in the Recitals and this Resolution in its entirety, as well as the findings and supporting evidence set forth in the Staff Report and supporting documents that accompanied this Resolution at the time of its adoption, constitute the written findings of the City Council in support of its declaration that the Land is surplus land under the SLA and exempt from further environmental review under CEQA. SECTION 7. This Resolution shall take effect upon its adoption. The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY •The City’s classification plan and salary plan/schedule must be approved by Council and adopted by resolution in accordance with the City’s Personnel Policy. •The current Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and the La Quinta Employees’ Association (Association) provides a meet-and-confer reopener to determine the annual World at Work salary plan/schedule adjustment. Fiscal year (FY) 2026/27 is the final year of the MOU term. •The City and Association met and conferred regarding the annual reopener to determine the FY 2026/27 World at Work salary plan/schedule adjustment and mutually agreed on a 2.3% salary/plan schedule adjustment effective July 1, 2026. •The proposed Amendment No. 4 to the MOU, if approved, will implement the agreed-upon terms for all Association members. •The City applies the same salary plan/schedule adjustments to non-represented regular full-time and part-time employees as those approved for Association members, ensuring organization-wide consistency and equity. FISCAL IMPACT The FY 2026/27 cost to implement the 2.3% salary plan/schedule adjustment is approximately $550,000, and has been incorporated into the FY 2026/27 Proposed Budget through personnel-related salary and benefit appropriations. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 2 23 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The City’s classification plan and salary plan/schedule must be approved by Council and adopted by resolution in accordance with the City’s Personnel Policy. In August 2022, the City and the Association executed a five-year MOU providing for an annual meet and confer reopener to evaluate salary plan/schedule adjustments based on the World at Work Salary Budget Survey. Following collaborative discussions, the City and Association agreed to a 2.3% salary plan/schedule adjustment effective July 1, 2026. To implement these agreed-upon terms and ensure consistency, Council must adopt resolutions to approve both the amendment to the MOU and the City's FY 2026/27 Classification Plan and Salary Plan/Schedule for non-represented regular full-time and part-time employees. Approving the updated Classification Plan and 2.3% salary plan/schedule adjustment aligns the City’s compensation practices with established workforce objectives and the negotiated MOU terms. These actions strengthen the City’s capacity to support staffing needs and maintain a compensation structure that reflects organizational priorities. The City follows a consistent practice of extending benefit/salary adjustments provided to Association members to non-represented regular full-time and part-time employees. ALTERNATIVES The City and the Association have engaged in good-faith negotiations to reach a mutually acceptable outcome, and approval of the 2.3% salary plan/schedule adjustment would conclude the FY 2026/27 reopener, the final salary adjustment reopener under the current MOU, which expires on June 30, 2027. While staff does not recommend alternatives, Council may choose not to approve the negotiated 2.3% adjustment.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Commissioner Nieto requested to be excused from the June 9, 2026, Planning Commission meeting due to illness. Commissioner Nieto has one excused absence and no unexcused absences for fiscal year 2025/26. FISCAL IMPACT – No meeting attendance compensation is paid to absent members. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS Section 2.06.090(B) of the La Quinta Municipal Code states: “If any member of a board, commission or committee absents themself from two consecutive regular meetings or absents themself from a total of three regular meetings within any fiscal year, their office shall become vacant and shall be filled as any other vacancy.” Section 2.06.090(C) further states: “Any member of a board or commission may request advance permission from the city council to be absent at one or more regular meetings due to extenuating circumstances, and/or may request the city council to excuse an absence after-the-fact where such extenuating circumstances prevented the member from seeking advance permission to be absent, except for the housing commission, whose member(s) may request such excusal from the housing authority. Any member of a temporary committee may request such excusal from the establishing body. If such permission or excuse is granted by the city council, housing authority, or establishing body, the absence shall not be counted toward the above-stated limitations on absences.” ALTERNATIVES Council may deny this request, which would result in the absence being counted toward the Commissioners’ limitation on absences as noted above.

(dba VCA CODE) FOR ON-CALL BUILDING CODE PLAN REVIEW AND INSPECTION SERVICES RECOMMENDATION Approve Agreements for Contract Services with Bureau Veritas North America, Inc., HR Green Pacific, Inc., True North Compliance Services, Inc., and The Code Group, Inc. (dba VCA Code) for on-call building code plan review, inspection, and permit processing services; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreements. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY x The City contracts to provide plan review and inspection services based on workload and expertise as needed. x The above-named firms are best qualified to provide these services and were selected through the competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process completed June 1, 2026. x Each agreement would be approved for a not to exceed amount of $300,000 per fiscal year (FY) for an initial 3-year term, with an optional 2-year extended term, which provides the flexibility to use any of the consultants depending on the City’s work demands, urgency, and the consultants’ availability. FISCAL IMPACT All 4 agreements combined could cost up to $300,000 per FY, or $900,000 during the initial 3-year term, and up to $600,000 for the optional 2-year term extension, for a total not to exceed amount of $1,500,000. Funds are included in the proposed FY 2026/27 budget in the Building Division Contract Services/Plan Checks budget (101-6003-60118) and will be budgeted pursuant to the agreement terms for future FY. Initial Term Budget FY 2026/27 $ 300,000 FY 2027/28 $ 300,000 FY 2028/29 $ 300,000 Possible Extended Term FY 2029/30 $ 300,000 FY 2030/31 $ 300,000 TOTAL: $1,500,000 CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 6 51 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS In May 2026, the City published an RFP for on-call building plan review and inspection services and received 12 proposals. The following 4 firms were selected based on qualifications, experience, and pricing – Bureau Veritas North America, Inc., HR Green Pacific, Inc., True North Compliance Services, Inc., and The Code Group, Inc. (dba VCA Code). Staff recommends these firms be retained to ensure services are available. The on-call services encompass the review of structural designs and calculations, along with staff augmentation as necessary. These consultants provide specialized structural expertise not available within City staff and are able to perform on-call inspection services when needed. If approved, the contract authority would allow staff to utilize any combination of the 4 consultants for the full not to exceed budget of $300,000 per FY; the monthly invoices will be tracked to ensure that the $300,000 annual budget for these services is not exceeded. Staff requests this flexibility to provide for multiple consultants that can be used depending on their availability due to prior commitments. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect not to approve the agreements. However, staff does not recommend this alternative as it would limit the City’s ability to review and approve permits that involve engineered drawings and reports, and to remain on track when work demands increase.

Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended 78 Exhibit E Page 5 of 6 to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from 79 Exhibit E Page 6 of 6 Contracting Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 80 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a.

Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended 107 Exhibit E Page 5 of 6 to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from 108 Exhibit E Page 6 of 6 Contracting Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 109 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a.

In the event of any dispute arising under this Agreement, the injured party shall notify the injuring party in writing of its contentions by submitting a claim therefore.

Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party. 8.6 Legal Action.

Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended 137 Exhibit E Page 5 of 6 to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from 138 Exhibit E Page 6 of 6 Contracting Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 139 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a.

Compliance with the provisions of this Section shall be a condition precedent to termination of this Agreement for cause and to any legal action, and such compliance shall not be a waiver of any party’s right to take legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing herein shall limit City’s right to terminate this Agreement without cause pursuant to this Article 8.0. During the period of time that Contracting Party is in default, City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment on the invoices.

No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy of a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. City’s consent or approval of any act by Contracting Party requiring City’s consent or approval shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary City’s consent to or approval of any subsequent act of Contracting Party. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement. 8.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other party. 8.6 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, at law or at equity, to cure, correct, or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. 8.7 Termination Prior To Expiration of Term.

Contracting Party shall be entitled to compensation for all Services rendered prior to receipt of the notice of termination and for any Services authorized by the Contract Officer, or assigned designee, thereafter in accordance with the Schedule of Compensation or such as may be approved by the Contract Officer, or assigned designee, except amounts held as a retention pursuant to this Agreement. 8.8 Termination for Default of Contracting Party. If termination is due to the failure of Contracting Party to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, Contracting Party shall vacate any City-owned property which Contracting Party is permitted to occupy hereunder and City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 8.2, take over the Services and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise, and Contracting Party shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to Contracting Party for the purpose of setoff or partial payment of the amounts owed City. 8.9 Attorneys’ Fees. If either party to this Agreement is required to initiate or defend or made a party to any action or proceeding in any way connected with this Agreement, the prevailing party in such action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief which may be granted, whether legal or equitable, shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys’ fees; provided, however, that the attorneys’ fees awarded pursuant to this Section shall not exceed the hourly rate paid by City for legal services multiplied by the reasonable number of hours spent by the prevailing party in the conduct of the litigation. Attorneys’ fees shall include attorneys’ fees on any appeal, and in addition a party entitled to attorneys’ fees shall be entitled to all other reasonable costs for investigating such action, taking depositions and discovery, and all other necessary costs the court allows which are incurred in such litigation. All such fees shall be deemed to have accrued on commencement of such action and shall be enforceable whether or not such action is prosecuted to judgment.

Contracting Party covenants that neither it, nor any officer or principal of it, has or shall acquire any interest, directly or indirectly, which would conflict in any manner with the interests of City or which would in any way hinder 152 -12- Contracting Party’s performance of the Services under this Agreement.

Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended 168 Exhibit E Page 5 of 6 to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from 169 Exhibit E Page 6 of 6 Contracting Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 170 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a.

Indemnity Provisions for Contracts Related to Construction (Limitation on Indemnity).

In instances where City is shown to have been actively negligent and where City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the obligation of Contracting Party will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not attributable to the active negligence of City. 171 Exhibit F Page 2 of 2 d.Indemnification Provision for Design Professionals. 1.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Since 2020, Scope Events has successfully organized multiple La Quinta Art Celebration (LQAC) events for the City and the current agreement expires December 31, 2026. Each LQAC event brings thousands of attendees to La Quinta, supports revenue generation for the City, and provides a positive community experience that enhances La Quinta’s identity as an arts destination. If approved, the proposed agreement (Attachment 1) would authorize Scope Events to continue producing the LQAC for 3 additional years, with one event to be held in the first quarter of 2027, 2028, and 2029 calendar years. FISCAL IMPACT In exchange for title sponsorship, or the highest sponsorship level available, Scope Events would be exempt from facility use fees estimated at approximately $29,000, while the City would fund waste and recycle charges from Burrtec Waste and Recycling Services of approximately $5,000 from Fund 221- AB 939- CalRecycle. The City would also provide up to $35,000 annually in digital, print, and social media advertising to support promotion of the LQAC, resulting in an estimated total annual City cost of $69,000 for the in-kind services. Scope Events would be responsible for all other applicable event-related services and fees, including traffic, police, fire, and business license expenses. Revenue generated from business licenses and tax from art sales will go to the General Fund to support City services. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 7 173 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The LQAC is a signature community experience that reflects the City’s strong tradition of supporting arts and culture. The event is held at the Civic Center Campus and brings together artists from across the country and around the world to showcase artwork in a variety of mediums, including paintings, sculpture, and mixed media. The event also features food, live music, and hand-crafted cocktails, creating a vibrant and welcoming experience for attendees. In 2019, the City published a Request for Proposals to procure a producer for the LQAC; received 12 proposals; and following interviews held on August 6, 2019, Council awarded the agreement to Scope Events. Scope Events has successfully produced the LQAC since 2020, and has demonstrated its ability to attract quality artists, draw thousands of attendees, and deliver a safe and positive experience for the community. The event provides ongoing benefit to the City by increasing visitor activity, supporting local businesses, and generating revenue for the City. The proposed agreement provides for one LQAC in the first quarter of 2027, 2028, and 2029 calendar years. Approval of the agreement would allow the City to maintain the momentum and value of this successful event while ensuring its continued benefit to the community over the next three years. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect not to approve the agreement.

Prevailing Wage Compliance. If Contracting Party is a contractor performing public works and maintenance projects, as described in this Section 1.3, Contracting Party shall comply with applicable Federal, State, and local laws. Contracting Party is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Sections 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Sections 16000, et seq., (collectively, the “Prevailing Wage Laws”), and La Quinta Municipal Code Section 3.12.040, which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on “Public works” and “Maintenance” projects. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “Public works” or “Maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if construction work over twenty- five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) and/or alterations, demolition, repair or maintenance work over fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000.00) is entered into or extended on or after January 1, 2015 by this Agreement, Contracting Party agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws including, but not limited to, requirements related to the maintenance of payroll records and the employment of apprentices. Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1725.5, no contractor or subcontractor may be awarded a contract for public work on a “Public works” project unless registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”) at the time the contract is awarded. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “Public works” or “Maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, this project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. Contracting Party will maintain and will require all subcontractors to maintain valid and current DIR Public Works contractor registration during the term of this Agreement. Contracting Party shall notify City in writing immediately, and in no case more than twenty-four (24) hours, after receiving any information that Contracting Party’s or any of its subcontractor’s DIR registration status has been suspended, revoked, expired, or otherwise changed. It is understood that it is the responsibility of Contracting Party to determine the correct salary scale. Contracting Party shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification, or type of worker needed to execute the Services available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at Contracting Party’s principal place of business and at the project site, if any. The statutory penalties for failure to pay prevailing wage or to comply with State wage and hour laws will be enforced. Contracting Party must forfeit to City TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($25.00) per day for each worker who works in excess of the minimum working hours when Contracting Party does not pay overtime. In accordance with the provisions of Labor Code Sections 1810 et seq., eight (8) hours is the legal working day. Contracting Party also shall comply with State law requirements to maintain payroll records and shall provide for certified records and inspection of records as required by California Labor Code Section 1770 et seq., including Section 1776. In addition to the other indemnities provided under this Agreement, Contracting Party shall defend (with counsel selected by City), indemnify, and hold City, 194 Exhibit A Page 7 of 8 its elected officials, officers, employees, and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. It is agreed by the parties that, in connection with performance of the Services, including, without limitation, any and all “Public works” (as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws), Contracting Party shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under California law and/or the implementation of Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be amended from time to time, and/or any other similar law. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall be independently responsible for reviewing the applicable laws and regulations and effectuating compliance with such laws. Contracting Party shall require the same of all subcontractors. 2. Retention. Payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 2.0 of the Agreement. In accordance with said Sections, City shall pay Contracting Party a sum based upon ninety-five percent (95%) of the Contract Sum apportionment of the labor and materials incorporated into the Services under this Agreement during the month covered by said invoice. The remaining five percent (5%) thereof shall be retained as performance security to be paid to Contracting Party within sixty (60) days after final acceptance of the Services by the City Council of City, after Contracting Party has furnished City with a full release of all undisputed payments under this Agreement, if required by City. In the event there are any claims specifically excluded by Contracting Party from the operation of the release, City may retain proceeds (per Public Contract Code § 7107) of up to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount in dispute. City’s failure to deduct or withhold shall not affect Contracting Party’s obligations under the Agreement. 3. Utility Relocation. City is responsible for removal, relocation, or protection of existing main or trunk-line utilities to the extent such utilities were not identified in the invitation for bids or specifications. City shall reimburse Contracting Party for any costs incurred in locating, repairing damage not caused by Contracting Party, and removing or relocating such unidentified utility facilities. Contracting Party shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay arising from the removal or relocation of such unidentified utility facilities. 4. Trenches or Excavations. Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 7104, in the event the work included in this Agreement requires excavations more than four (4) feet in depth, the following shall apply: (a) Contracting Party shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify City, in writing, of any: (1) material that Contracting Party believes may be material that is hazardous waste, as defined in Section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law; (2) subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site different from those indicated by information about the site made available to bidders prior to the deadline for submitting bids; or (3) unknown physical conditions at the site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Agreement. 195 Exhibit A Page 8 of 8 (b) City shall promptly investigate the conditions, and if it finds that the conditions do materially so differ, or do involve hazardous waste, and cause a decrease or increase in Contracting Party’s cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work shall issue a change order per Section 1.8 of the Agreement. (c) in the event that a dispute arises between City and Contracting Party whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in Contracting Party’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work, Contracting Party shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by this Agreement, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under this Agreement. Contracting Party shall retain any and all rights provided either by contract or by law which pertain to the resolution of disputes and protests between the contracting Parties. 5. Safety. Contracting Party shall execute and maintain its work so as to avoid injury or damage to any person or property. In carrying out the Services, Contracting Party shall at all times be in compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal laws, rules and regulations, and shall exercise all necessary precautions for the safety of employees appropriate to the nature of the work and the conditions under which the work is to be performed.

Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of the Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, Contracting Party shall be liable for and shall pay to City the sum of One Thousand dollars ($1,000.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the Services required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance. In addition, liquidated damages may be assessed for failure to comply with the emergency call out requirements, if any, described in the Scope of Services.

E.3 General Conditions Pertaining to Provisions of Insurance Coverage by Contracting Party. Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 202 Exhibit E Page 4 of 6 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 203 Exhibit E Page 5 of 6 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Contracting Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 204 Exhibit E Page 6 of 6 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 205 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a. Indemnification for Professional Liability. When the law establishes a professional standard of care for Contracting Party’s Services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Contracting Party shall indemnify, protect, defend (with counsel selected by City), and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees, and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities of every kind, nature, and description, damages, injury (including, without limitation, injury to or death of an employee of Contracting Party or of any subcontractor), costs and expenses of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages, court costs, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, and fees of expert consultants or expert witnesses incurred in connection therewith and costs of investigation, to the extent same are caused in whole or in part by any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission of Contracting Party, its officers, agents, employees or subcontractors (or any entity or individual that Contracting Party shall bear the legal liability thereof) in the performance of professional services under this agreement. With respect to the design of public improvements, the Contracting Party shall not be liable for any injuries or property damage resulting from the reuse of the design at a location other than that specified in Exhibit A without the written consent of the Contracting Party. b. Indemnification for Other Than Professional Liability. Other than in the performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Contracting Party shall indemnify, defend (with counsel selected by City), and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages, court costs, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, and fees of expert consultants or expert witnesses) incurred in connection therewith and costs of investigation, where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Contracting Party or by any individual or entity for which Contracting Party is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees, or subcontractors of Contracting Party. c.

Indemnification Provision for Design Professionals. 1. Applicability of this Section F.1(d). Notwithstanding Section F.1(a) hereinabove, the following indemnification provision shall apply to a Contracting Party who constitutes a “design professional” as the term is defined in paragraph 3 below. 2. Scope of Indemnification. When the law establishes a professional standard of care for Contracting Party’s Services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Contracting Party shall indemnify and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees, and agents (“Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities of every kind, nature, and description, damages, injury (including, without limitation, injury to or death of an employee of Contracting Party or of any subcontractor), costs and expenses, including, without limitation, incidental and consequential damages, court costs, reimbursement of attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, and fees of expert consultants or expert witnesses incurred in connection therewith and costs of investigation, to the extent same are caused by any negligent or wrongful act, error or omission of Contracting Party, its officers, agents, employees or subcontractors (or any entity or individual that Contracting Party shall bear the legal liability thereof) in the performance of professional services under this agreement. With respect to the design of public improvements, the Contracting Party shall not be liable for any injuries or property damage resulting from the reuse of the design at a location other than that specified in Exhibit A without the written consent of the Contracting Party. 3. Design Professional Defined. As used in this Section F.1(d), the term “design professional” shall be limited to licensed architects, registered professional engineers, licensed professional land surveyors and landscape architects, all as defined under current law, and as may be amended from time to time by Civil Code § 2782.8.

In the event Contracting Party fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required herein, Contracting Party agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this Exhibit. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City as set forth in this Agreement are binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of Contracting Party and shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 207 208 City of La Quinta CITY COUNCIL MEETING: June 16, 2026 STAFF REPORT AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE LEASE AGREEMENT WITH FAMILY YMCA OF THE DESERT FOR USE OF CITY PROPERTY, LOCATED AT 51001 EISENHOWER DRIVE, FOR BEFORE AND AFTER-SCHOOL CHILDCARE SERVICES; CEQA: THE ACTION IS EXEMPT FROM ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PURSUANT TO SECTION 15061(b)(3) OF THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT, COMMON SENSE EXEMPTION RECOMMENDATION A)Find that this action is exempt from environmental review under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), the Common Sense Exemption; and B)Approve Lease Agreement with Family YMCA of the Desert for use of City property, located at 51001 Eisenhower Drive, for before and after-school childcare services; and authorize the City Manager to execute the lease. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY •Family YMCA of the Desert has requested approval of a lease for use of City property located at 51001 Eisenhower Drive for before and after-school childcare services, from August 19, 2026, until April 30, 2027. •The YMCA requested use of the building due to construction delays at its permanent facility anticipated to be completed by April 2027. FISCAL IMPACT The Lease Agreement requires payment of rent to the City in the amount of $10,171 within 15 days of execution of the agreement. No additional fiscal impact is identified in this report beyond routine City administration associated with the lease. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS Family YMCA of the Desert (YMCA) has requested use of City-owned property, located at 51001 Eisenhower Drive, for operation of before and after-school childcare services, via a Lease Agreement (Attachment 1) from August 19, 2026, through April 30, 2027. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 8 209 The YMCA planned to transition these operations to its permanent facility in June 2026, which is currently under construction, and due to delays thereto, it is now anticipated to be ready for occupancy until April 2027. The requested lease term is intended to avoid a disruption in childcare services and to provide continuity for participating families during the 2026-2027 school year. Under the proposed Lease Agreement, the premises may be used solely for childcare services and as a center for youth-oriented activities. The lease identifies rent in the amount of $10,171 and assigns operational responsibilities to the tenant, while reserving the City’s rights as landlord under the agreement. Consistent with California Revenue and Taxation Code section 107.6, the Lease Agreement includes a disclosure stating that any possessory interest created under the lease may be subject to property taxation and that the YMCA, as lessee, may be responsible for payment of any possessory interest taxes levied on that interest. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The City has reviewed the proposed action and determined that it is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code Section 2100 et seq.) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), commonly referred to as the Common Sense Exemption. Pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), CEQA applies only to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. The proposed action, approving a Lease Agreement for a City-owned property to facilitate before and after-school childcare services, does not authorize any ground disturbance, construction, or physical alteration of the environment. It can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the approval of this agreement may have a significant direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical effect on the environment. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect not to approve the Lease Agreement.

Upon completion of such repair and restoration, Lessee shall promptly refixture and restock the improvements on the Premises, if necessary, substantially to the condition prior to the casualty or as otherwise required by this Lease, whichever is greater, and shall reopen if closed by the casualty. ARTICLE 10 ASSIGNMENTS AND SUBLETTING 10.1 Lessor’s Consent Required. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Lessee agrees and covenants (which covenants shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, and administrators of Lessee) that Lessee shall not, either voluntarily or by operation of law, assign, sell, encumber, pledge, sublet, or otherwise transfer all or any part of Lessee’s leasehold estate hereunder, without Lessor’s prior written consent. No assignment, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law, under legal process or proceedings, by receivership, in bankruptcy, or otherwise, and no subletting shall be valid or effective without such prior written consent of Lessor, and at Lessor’s election, shall constitute a default. 10.2 Lessee Remains Obligated. No subletting or assignment, even with the consent of Lessor, shall relieve Lessee of its obligation to pay Rent and all of its other obligations hereunder. The acceptance by Lessor of any payment due hereunder from any person or entity other than Lessee shall not be construed as a waiver by Lessor of any provision of this Lease or a consent to any assignment or subletting. Consent by Lessor to an assignment of the Lease or to a subletting of the Premises shall not operate as a waiver or estoppel to the future enforcement by Lessor of its rights pursuant to this Lease. ARTICLE 11 DEFAULT 11.1 Event of Default. The word “default”, as used in this Section 12.1, shall mean and include any one or more of the following events or occurrences: (a) The failure by Lessee to make any payment of Rent, or other payment required by Lessee hereunder, when due and the continuance of such failure for a period of fifteen (15) days after Lessor has given Lessee written notice specifying the same; (b) The failure of Lessee to perform any term, condition, covenant or agreement of this Lease, excluding the payment of Rent or other amounts due pursuant to subsection (a), and the continuation of such failure for a period of thirty (30) days after Lessor shall have given Lessee written notice specifying the same, or in the case of a situation in which the default cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, if Lessee shall not promptly, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice, commence to remedy the situation by a means that can reasonably be expected to remedy the situation within a reasonable period of time, and diligently pursue the same to completion; (c) The abandonment by Lessee of the Premises or a substantial portion thereof; and/or (d) Lessee’s (i) application for, consent to, or suffering of, the appointment of a receiver, trustee, or liquidator for all or for a substantial portion of its assets; (ii) making a 218 2731/015610-0002 12419803.1 a06/11/26 -9- general assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iii) being adjudged a bankruptcy; (iv) filing a voluntary petition or suffering an involuntary petition under any bankruptcy, arrangement, reorganizations or insolvency law (unless in the case of an involuntary petition, the same is dismissed with thirty (30) days of such filing); or (v) fifteen (15) consecutive days any attachment, levy, execution or seizure of all or a substantial portion of the Lessee’s assets or of Lessee’s interest in this Lease. 11.2 Remedies. (a) General. In the event of any default by Lessee, including the expiration of any applicable cure period, Lessor may: (i) Terminate Lessee’s right to possession of the Premises by any lawful means, including by written notice, in which care this Lease shall terminate and Lessee shall immediately surrender possession of the Premises to Lessor. Such termination shall not relieve Lessee of any obligation hereunder which has accrued prior to the date of such termination. In the event of such termination, Lessor shall be entitled to recover from Lessee all amounts due and owing under the Lease and the costs of restoring the Premises to the condition specified in Article 2. (b) Reasonable Rental Value. In any action or proceeding commenced by Lessor against Lessee by reason of any default hereunder, the reasonable rental value of the Premises for the period of the unlawful occupation by Lessee shall be the fair market value of the use of the Premises for that period. (c) Cumulative Remedies. Except as may be specifically provided herein, the rights and remedies reserved to Lessor and Lessee herein, including those not specifically described, shall be cumulative and, except as provided by California statutory or decisional law in effect at the time, either Lessor or lessee may pursue any or all of such rights and remedies at the same time or otherwise. (d) Lessor’s Non-Waiver. No delay or omission of Lessor to exercise any right or remedy shall be construed as a waiver of any right or remedy or of any default by lessee hereunder. The acceptance by Lessor of Rent or any additional rent hereunder shall not be a waiver of any preceding breach or default by Lessee of any provision hereof, other than the failure of Lessee to pay the particular Rent accepted, regardless of Lessor’s knowledge of such preceding breach or default at the time of acceptance of such rent, or a waiver of lessor’s right to exercise any remedy available to Lessor by virtue of such breach or default. The acceptance of any payment from a debtor in possession, a trustee, a receiver or any other person acting on behalf of Lessee of Lessee’s estate shall not waive or cure a default under subsection (d). (e) Lessor’s Reentry. Lessee hereby irrevocably consents to Lessor’s peaceable reentry, if Lessor so elects, to the Premises upon the occurrence of any of the events of default specified above, including the expiration of any applicable cure period. (f) Lessor’s Advances. In the event of any default by Lessee in the payment of money, other then Rent, or the performance of Lessee’s obligations required under this Lease, and the expiration of any period expressly provided for herein for Lessee to cure said default 219 2731/015610-0002 12419803.1 a06/11/26 -10- after the delivery of notice by Lessor, in addition to the other remedies herein granted to Lessor, Lessor may, but shall not be obligated to do so, and without waiving or releasing Lessee from any obligation of this Lease, make any payment and perform any other act on Lessee’s part to be made or performed as provided in this Lease. All sums paid by Lessor and all necessary incidental costs, together with interest thereon with interest pursuant to Section 18.10 shall be payable by Lessee to Lessor on demand. The sums shall be deemed to be additional Rent and subject to the same consequences as herein provided for failure to pay Rent. 11.3 Default by Lessor. Lessor shall not be deemed to be in default in the performance of any obligation required to be performed by it hereunder unless and until it has failed to perform such obligation within thirty (30) days after written notice by Lessee to lessor specifying in reasonable detail the nature and extent of any such failure; provided, however, that if the nature of Lessor’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for its performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. 11.4 Legal Expenses and Collection Costs. If either party incurs any expense, including actual costs of collection, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses of discovery, preparation for litigation, expert witness fees and litigation expenses and costs, in connection with any action or proceeding instituted by either party by reason of any default or alleged default of the other party hereunder, the party prevailing in such action or proceeding shall be entitled to recover its reasonable expenses from the other party. For purposes of this provision, in any unlawful detainer or other action or proceeding instituted by Lessor based upon any default or alleged default by Lessee hereunder, Lessor shall be deemed the prevailing party if (a) judgement is entered in favor of Lessor or (b) prior to trial or judgement Lessee shall pay the Rent and charges claimed by Lessor, or eliminate the condition(s), cease the act(s) or otherwise cure the omission(s) claimed by Lessor to constitute a default by Lessee hereunder. ARTICLE 12 HOLDING OVER This Lease shall terminate and become null and void without further notice upon the expiration of the Term herein specified, and any holding over by Lessee after such expiration shall not constitute a renewal or extension hereof or give Lessee any rights under this Lease, except when in writing signed by both parties hereto. ARTICLE 13 ACCESS BY LESSOR In addition to all other rights of Lessor herein, Lessor its agents, contractors, officials, and employees of Lessor who are identified in writing to Lessee shall have the right, after reasonable notice to Lessee, to enter the Premises during normal business hours or at an alternative time reasonably acceptable to Lessee (a) to examine the Premises, to perform any obligations of Lessor or to exercise any right or remedy reserved to Lessor in this Lease; (b) to exhibit the Premises to prospective purchasers, mortgagees or lessees of Lessor's interest therein; (c) to make such repairs as Lessor may be entitled to make after a default by Lessee under Article 12 above; and (d) to take all materials into and upon the Premises that may be required in connection with such repairs, provided that any such entry shall be performed in such a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with Lessee's use of the Premises. If Lessor exercises its rights of entry in compliance with this Article 14, such entry shall not constitute a constructive or actual eviction of Lessee, in whole or in part, and the Rent shall not abate while any such repairs are being made. If, during the 220 2731/015610-0002 12419803.1 a06/11/26 -11- last month of the Term, Lessee shall have removed all or substantially all of Lessee's property therefrom, Lessor may immediately enter and alter, renovate and redecorate the Premises without elimination or abatement of Rent, and without other compensation and such action shall have no effect upon this Lease. Nothing herein contained, however, shall be deemed or construed to impose upon Lessor any obligation, responsibility or liability whatsoever for the care, supervision or repair of the Premises. ARTICLE 14 QUIET ENJOYMENT Upon payment by Lessee of the Rents provided herein, and upon the observance and performance of all of the covenants, terms and conditions on the part of Lessee to be performed hereunder, Lessor covenants and warrants that Lessee may peaceably and quietly hold and enjoy the Premises for the Term. ARTICLE 15 FURNITURE, FIXTURE, AND EQUIPMENT FINANCING It is contemplated that during the Term of this Lease, Lessee shall place or cause the placement from time to time of Furniture, Fixtures or Equipment (collectively “FF&E”) on the Premises which shall be subject to lease and/or purchase financing encumbrances (collectively “FF&E” Financing). Prior to Lessee having the right to place any FF&E on the Premises subject to FF&E Financing, Lessee shall be required to deliver to Lessor written notice of any such proposed FF&E Financing at least sixty (60) days prior to the creation of such FF&E Financing, together with documentation in reasonable detail so that Lessor may review and approve or disapprove, in Lessor's reasonable discretion, the FF&E Financing. Such information shall include, but not be limited to, the following: (i) a complete description of the FF&E; (ii) the lease term, rent payments and security deposits required in connection with any leasing of FF&E; (iii) the purchase price, terms of payment and conditions of any purchase or loan in connection with purchasing of FF&E; and (iv) copies of all relevant documents to be executed between Lessee and the lender, seller or Lessor of the particular FF&E in question.

Lessor's approval of any such FF&E Financing shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event Lessor reasonably objects to all or a portion of such FF&E Financing, Lessor shall within said thirty (30) day period give Lessee written notice of its objection, detailing the reasons thereof. In such event, Lessee shall be prohibited from entering into such FF&E Financing but Lessee may submit to Lessor such response to Lessor's objections and/or revisions to the terms and conditions of the FF&E Financing in order to satisfy Lessor's objections thereto. Any such newly submitted information shall again be subject to Lessor's thirty (30) day right to review and reasonably object thereto. Lessor's failure to timely object within said thirty (30) day period to any such proposed FF&E Financing for which proper notice has been given by Lessee to Lessor shall constitute disapproval of the particular FF&E Financing in question unless the parties agree to a longer review period in writing. Lessor's rights hereunder shall not be construed as requiring Lessor to participate in any way in any such FF&E Financing nor shall approval by Lessor of any such FF&E Financing obligate Lessor in any manner. ARTICLE 16 TAXES Lessee shall be responsible for, and agrees to pay, prior to delinquency, any and all taxes, assessments, installments of taxes, levies, fees, and other governmental charges of every kind or nature (hereinafter collectively called "Taxes") in the event such Taxes are levied or assessed by 221 2731/015610-0002 12419803.1 a06/11/26 -12- municipal, county, state, federal, or other taxing or assessing authorities or governmental agencies or entities upon, against, or with respect to (i) the Premises or any portion thereof; (ii) all fixtures, equipment, and any other property of any kind owned by Lessee or placed, installed, or located within, upon, or about the Premises for which Lessor might be assessed or which might become a lien on the Premises if not paid by Lessee; (iii) all alterations, addition, and improvements of whatsoever kind or nature, if any, made to the Premises or the improvements thereon; (iv) rentals or other charges payable by Lessee to Lessor; and (v) any other interest in the Premises (including the leasehold interest created by this Lease), irrespective of whether any of the items described in clauses (i) through (v) above are assessed as real or personal property, and irrespective of whether any of such items are assessed to or against Lessor, Lessee or any other person.

Tenant shall be responsible for and shall promptly pay when due and prior to delinquency all real and personal property taxes, possessory interest taxes, and assessments levied on the Premises.

Authorize the Public Works Department to utilize Tri-State Materials to purchase up to an additional amount of $25,000 of materials for the remainder of fiscal year 2025/26, for a combined total of $225,000. B. Authorize the Public Works Department to utilize Tri-State Materials to purchase up to $325,000 of materials for fiscal year 2026/27. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Per the City’s Purchasing and Contracting policy (Policy), amounts paid to vendors/contractors over $50,000 must be approved by Council. On December 2, 2025, Council authorized staff to utilize Tri-State Materials (Tri- State) to purchase up to $200,000 of materials in fiscal year (FY) 2025/26. Staff requests Authority to utilize Tri-State to purchase up to an additional amount of $25,000 of materials for the remainder of FY 2025/26 and up to $325,000 for FY 2026/27. FISCAL IMPACT If approved, the amounts would be charged in increments, as needed, to the appropriate account(s) in FYs 2025/26 and 2026/27. Funds for materials purchases are available in FY 2025/26 budget in the Lighting and Landscape (No. 215-7004-60431) and Parks (No. 101- 3005-60431) materials/supplies accounts, and will be budgeted pursuant to Council’s direction for FY 2026/27. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The Policy requires Council approval for purchases and/or contracts over $50,000. As of June 8, 2026, the City has purchased up to $197,960 in materials from Tri-State in FY 2025/26. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 10 233 The City frequently purchases boulders, decomposed granite (DG), gravel, and crushed stone from Tri-State. Staff will continue to compare prices and material selections to obtain the best value and quality materials. The City utilizes Tri-State as a select source for Desert Gold DG utilized in many City landscape projects. Hardscape materials are used in landscape renovations in center medians, parkways and parks. Currently, renovations are ongoing on the center medians on Washington Street (Washington) north of Calle Tampico to Sagebrush Avenue (Sagebrush), and the parkway on the east side of Washington between Avenue 50 to Sagebrush. Future renovations may include the center medians on Washington north of Sagebrush to Fred Waring Drive. This spending authority would allow maintenance projects in City medians, parkways, and parks to continue without interruptions to scheduled work.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City contracts lake maintenance services for city lakes located in Civic Center Campus (Campus) and SilverRock Park (SRR). On March 18, 2026, the City published a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Lake Maintenance Services, including on-call services; and received 1 proposal from Desert Limnologists, Inc. dba Southwest Aquatics (SW Aquatics), who has been servicing the City since 2019. Proposed is a 7-year agreement with SW Aquatics to provide lake maintenance services, effective July 1, 2026, to be executed as 1-year terms, through fiscal year (FY) 2032/33, based on satisfactory performance by the contractor. Staff requests authority to utilize SW Aquatics as a select source throughout the duration of the agreement, for additional lake maintenance services, not included in the agreement scope of work, on an on-call as needed basis, in accordance with Council-approved additional spending authority. FISCAL IMPACT The proposed agreement is for an initial 1-year term, effective FY 2026/27, and may be extended for 6 additional years based on satisfactory performance by SW Aquatics, to be executed as 1-year terms, through FY 2032/33. Estimated costs for lake maintenance services 2 days per week, year-round, are not to exceed $64,440 per FY, as detailed in CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 16 281 the table below, which also includes a 5% contingency, compounded year-over-year, to be used toward negotiating future annual compensation increases driven by prevailing wage and materials costs escalation, not to exceed the lesser of 5% or the annual consumer Price Index (CPI) for Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ontario.

Any unused spending authority would remain available and carryover each FY until expended or until the agreement expires, whichever occurs first.

Costs are detailed under the Fiscal Impact section of this report. SW Aquatics is familiar with the existing lake equipment, offers competitive pricing and has provided the City with quality and timely services since 2019.

If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “Public works” or “Maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and if construction work over twenty- five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) and/or alterations, demolition, repair or maintenance work over fifteen thousand dollars ($15,000.00) is entered into or extended on or after January 1, 2015 by this Agreement, Contracting Party agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws including, but not limited to, requirements related to the maintenance of payroll records and the employment of apprentices. Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1725.5, no contractor or subcontractor may be awarded a contract for public work on a “Public works” project unless registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations (“DIR”) at the time the contract is awarded. If the Services are being performed as part of an applicable “Public works” or “Maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, this project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR. Contracting Party will maintain and will require all subcontractors to maintain valid and current DIR Public Works contractor registration during the term of this Agreement. Contracting Party shall notify City in writing immediately, and in no case more than twenty-four (24) hours, after receiving any information that Contracting Party’s or any of its subcontractor’s DIR registration status has been suspended, revoked, expired, or otherwise changed. It is understood that it is the responsibility of Contracting Party to determine the correct salary scale. Contracting Party shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification, or type of worker needed to execute the Services available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at Contracting Party’s principal place of business and at the project site, if any. The statutory penalties for failure to pay prevailing wage or to comply with State wage and hour laws will be enforced. Contracting Party must forfeit to City TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS ($25.00) per day for each worker who works in excess of the minimum working hours when Contracting Party does not pay overtime. In accordance with the provisions of Labor Code Sections 1810 et seq., eight (8) hours is the legal working day. Contracting Party also shall comply with State law requirements to maintain payroll records and shall provide for certified records and inspection of records as required by California Labor Code Section 1770 et seq., including 302 Exhibit A Page 5 of 6 Section 1776. In addition to the other indemnities provided under this Agreement, Contracting Party shall defend (with counsel selected by City), indemnify, and hold City, its elected officials, officers, employees, and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. It is agreed by the parties that, in connection with performance of the Services, including, without limitation, any and all “Public works” (as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws), Contracting Party shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under California law and/or the implementation of Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be amended from time to time, and/or any other similar law. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall be independently responsible for reviewing the applicable laws and regulations and effectuating compliance with such laws. Contracting Party shall require the same of all subcontractors. 2. Retention. Payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 2.0 of the Agreement. In accordance with said Sections, City shall pay Contracting Party a sum based upon ninety-five percent (95%) of the Contract Sum apportionment of the labor and materials incorporated into the Services under this Agreement during the month covered by said invoice. The remaining five percent (5%) thereof shall be retained as performance security to be paid to Contracting Party within sixty (60) days after final acceptance of the Services by the City Council of City, after Contracting Party has furnished City with a full release of all undisputed payments under this Agreement, if required by City. In the event there are any claims specifically excluded by Contracting Party from the operation of the release, City may retain proceeds (per Public Contract Code § 7107) of up to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount in dispute. City’s failure to deduct or withhold shall not affect Contracting Party’s obligations under the Agreement. 3. Utility Relocation. City is responsible for removal, relocation, or protection of existing main or trunk-line utilities to the extent such utilities were not identified in the invitation for bids or specifications. City shall reimburse Contracting Party for any costs incurred in locating, repairing damage not caused by Contracting Party, and removing or relocating such unidentified utility facilities. Contracting Party shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay arising from the removal or relocation of such unidentified utility facilities. 4. Trenches or Excavations. Pursuant to California Public Contract Code Section 7104, in the event the work included in this Agreement requires excavations more than four (4) feet in depth, the following shall apply: (a) Contracting Party shall promptly, and before the following conditions are disturbed, notify City, in writing, of any: (1) material that Contracting Party believes may be material that is hazardous waste, as defined in Section 25117 of the Health and Safety Code, that is required to be removed to a Class I, Class II, or Class III disposal site in accordance with provisions of existing law; (2) subsurface or latent physical conditions at the site different from those indicated by information about the site made available to bidders prior to the deadline for submitting bids; or (3) unknown physical conditions at the 303 Exhibit A Page 6 of 6 site of any unusual nature, different materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Agreement. (b) City shall promptly investigate the conditions, and if it finds that the conditions do materially so differ, or do involve hazardous waste, and cause a decrease or increase in Contracting Party’s cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work shall issue a change order per Section 1.8 of the Agreement. (c) in the event that a dispute arises between City and Contracting Party whether the conditions materially differ, or involve hazardous waste, or cause a decrease or increase in Contracting Party’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the work, Contracting Party shall not be excused from any scheduled completion date provided for by this Agreement, but shall proceed with all work to be performed under this Agreement. Contracting Party shall retain any and all rights provided either by contract or by law which pertain to the resolution of disputes and protests between the contracting Parties. 5. Safety. Contracting Party shall execute and maintain its work so as to avoid injury or damage to any person or property. In carrying out the Services, Contracting Party shall at all times be in compliance with all applicable local, state, and federal laws, rules and regulations, and shall exercise all necessary precautions for the safety of employees appropriate to the nature of the work and the conditions under which the work is to be performed. Safety precautions as applicable shall include, but shall not be limited to: (A) adequate life protection and lifesaving equipment and procedures; (B) instructions in accident prevention for all employees and subcontractors, such as safe walkways, scaffolds, fall protection ladders, bridges, gang planks, confined space procedures, trenching and shoring, equipment and other safety devices, equipment and wearing apparel as are necessary or lawfully required to prevent accidents or injuries; and (C) adequate facilities for the proper inspection and maintenance of all safety measures. 6. Liquidated Damages. Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of the Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of this Agreement, Contracting Party shall be liable for and shall pay to City the sum of One Thousand dollars ($1,000.00) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the performance of any of the Services required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance. In addition, liquidated damages may be assessed for failure to comply with the emergency call-out requirements, if any, described in the Scope of Services. City may withhold from any moneys payable on account of the Services performed by Contracting Party any accrued liquidated damages. 304 Exhibit B Page 1 of 3 Exhibit B Schedule of Compensation For the avoidance of doubt, the compensation thresholds on this Exhibit B do not include compensation for Additional Services (if any) authorized pursuant to Section 1.7 and compensated pursuant to Section 2.3 of this Agreement.

Contracting Party and City agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Contracting Party: 1. Contracting Party agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required herein to include as additional insureds City, its officials, employees, and agents, using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 2010 with an edition prior to 1992. Contracting Party also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise. 2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Contracting Party, or Contracting Party’s employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss. Contracting Party agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise. 3. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contracting Party and available or applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to City or its operations limits the application of such insurance coverage. 4. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and approved of in writing. 5. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so-called “third party action over” claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the insured or of any contractor or subcontractor. 6. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional requirements by the City, as the need arises. Contracting Party shall not make any reductions in scope of coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect City’s protection without City’s prior written consent. 7. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance evidencing all the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Contracting Party’s general liability policy, shall be delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by Contracting Party or deducted from sums due Contracting Party, at City option. 8. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be provided by Contracting Party or any subcontractor, is intended 312 Exhibit E Page 4 of 5 to apply first and on a primary, non-contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self-insurance available to City. 9. Contracting Party agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project that is brought onto or involved in the project by Contracting Party, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contracting Party. Contracting Party agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contracting Party agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review. 10. Contracting Party agrees not to self-insure or to use any self-insured retentions or deductibles on any portion of the insurance required herein (with the exception of professional liability coverage, if required) and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor, subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or person in any way involved in the performance of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self-insure its obligations to City. If Contracting Party’s existing coverage includes a deductible or self-insured retention, the deductible or self-insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with the Contracting Party, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self-insured retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions. 11. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of this Agreement to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contracting Party ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contracting Party, the City will negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City. 12. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement. 13. Contracting Party acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform Contracting Party of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard. 14. Contracting Party will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies whether the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect. 15. Contracting Party shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. A coverage binder or letter from Contracting 313 Exhibit E Page 5 of 5 Party’s insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate of insurance and an additional insured endorsement is required in these specifications applicable to the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five (5) days of the expiration of coverages. 16. The provisions of any workers’ compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of Contracting Party under this agreement. Contracting Party expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity defenses under such laws with respect to City, its employees, officials, and agents. 17. Requirements of specific coverage features, or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. 18. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in this Agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such. 19. The requirements in this Exhibit supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this Exhibit. 20. Contracting Party agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Contracting Party for the cost of additional insurance coverage required by this agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other amounts with respect thereto. 21. Contracting Party agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contracting Party arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City. 314 Exhibit F Page 1 of 2 Exhibit F Indemnification F.1 Indemnity for the Benefit of City. a.

IHRKE, City Attorney City of La Quinta, California 321 322 City of La Quinta CITY COUNCIL MEETING: June 16, 2026 STAFF REPORT AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE WRITE-OFF AND TRANSFER OF UNCLAIMED OVERPAYMENTS RECOMMENDATION Approve accounts receivable write-off and transfer of unclaimed overpayments as follows: a.Write-off accounts receivable totaling $259,972.96 related to Legacy Villas transient occupancy tax (TOT) mitigation fees in accordance with a settlement agreement previously approved by the City Council. b.Transfer unclaimed overpayments totaling $202.74 to the General Fund in accordance with Government Code Sections 50050-50057 and the City's Accounts Receivable Write-Off and Unclaimed Property Policy. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY •The City's Accounts Receivable Write-Off and Unclaimed Property Policy requires City Council approval for write-offs exceeding $50,000 and for the transfer of certain unclaimed overpayments. •Staff identified accounts receivable and unclaimed property totaling $260,175.70, consisting of Legacy Villas TOT mitigation fees and customer overpayments, that qualify for write-off or transfer in accordance with a City Council-approved settlement agreement and the City's Accounts Receivable Write-Off and Unclaimed Property Policy. •Approval of the recommended actions will ensure the City's accounting records accurately reflect collectible receivables and comply with the City's adopted policy. FISCAL IMPACT Approval of the write-off will reduce outstanding accounts receivable by $259,972.96 and recognize a corresponding reduction in anticipated mitigation fee revenue. The transfer of unclaimed overpayments totaling $202.74 will increase General Fund revenue by the same amount. These entries are non-cash transactions which have no impact on current available resources. CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM NO. 18 323 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The City Council adopted an Accounts Receivable Write-Off and Unclaimed Property Policy via Resolution No. 2019-014, establishing procedures for the collection and write- off of accounts receivable and the disposition of unclaimed property. The policy requires City Council approval for write-offs exceeding $50,000 and authorizes the transfer of unclaimed overpayments of less than $15 to the General Fund when such amounts have remained unclaimed for at least one year. Legacy Villas Mitigation Fee Write-Off The City maintains an accounts receivable balance of $259,972.96 related to TOT mitigation fees owed by Legacy Villas. Following negotiations between the parties, the City Council approved a settlement agreement in Closed Session resolving a portion of the outstanding TOT mitigation fee obligations, totaling $259,972.96. As a result, these amounts are no longer collectible and should be written off from the City's accounting records. Unclaimed Overpayments Finance staff periodically reviews customer accounts for outstanding credit balances and unclaimed overpayments. The current review identified unclaimed overpayments totaling $202.74. Each individual item is less than $15 and has remained unclaimed for more than one year despite reasonable efforts to identify and refund the payees. Pursuant to Government Code Sections 50050-50057 and the City's Accounts Receivable Write-Off and Unclaimed Property Policy, these amounts may be transferred to the General Fund upon City Council approval. ALTERNATIVES Council may wish to request further information regarding specific items prior to approval.

This chapter shall be referred to as the "Short-Term Vacation Rental Regulations." (Ord. 619 § 1, Exh. A, 12-17-2024; Ord. 590 § 1(Exh. A), 3-16-2021; Ord. 586 § 1(Exh. A), 12-15-2020; Ord. 572 § 1, 2018; Ord. 563 § 1, 2017; Ord. 501 § 2, 2012) 3.25.020 Purpose. A. The purpose of this chapter is to establish regulations for the use of privately owned residential dwellings as short-term vacation rentals that ensure the collection and payment of transient occupancy taxes (TOT) as provided in Chapter 3.24 of this code, and minimize the negative secondary effects of such use on surrounding residential neighborhoods. Among other secondary effects to be limited, this chapter is intended to: 1. Prevent the circumvention by any owner of a dwelling (or any real property) in the city from operating a short-term vacation rental (STVR), without properly obtaining a permit and license required by this chapter, by claiming to have a rental arrangement longer than thirty (30) days but nonetheless collecting rent from a tenant or subtenant who occupies a residence for thirty (30) consecutive calendar days or less; 2. Require sufficient parking so that neighboring dwellings and other property uses are not unduly adversely impacted by the use of a residential dwelling on a short-term basis as a short-term vacation rental; 3. Impose strict obligations on occupants of short-term vacation rental units to limit excessive outside or ambient noise that would unduly interfere with the use and enjoyment of neighboring dwellings or other property owners; 4. Prevent conversion of rooms, without required permitting or licensing as set forth in this chapter and this code, from a non-bedroom use to bedroom use for the purpose of increasing the maximum allowed number of occupants using a short-term vacation rental unit; 5. Maintain the residential character of the city's residential zones and neighborhoods by avoiding transitory uses which are not properly permitted pursuant to this chapter; and 6. Prohibit any property from being used as a short-term vacation rental unless such use is allowed within an area of the city and properly permitted pursuant to this chapter. B. This chapter is not intended to provide any owner of residential property with the right or privilege to violate any private conditions, covenants and restrictions applicable to the owner's property that may prohibit the use of such owner's residential property for short-term vacation rental purposes as defined in this chapter. C. The requirements of this chapter shall be presumed to apply to any residential dwelling that has received a short-term vacation rental permit. A rebuttable presumption arises that, whenever there is an occupant(s), paying rent or not, of a residential dwelling that has received a short-term vacation rental permit, the requirements of this chapter shall apply, including but not limited to any suspension or other modifications imposed on a short-term vacation rental permit as set forth in this chapter. The city manager or authorized Ordinance No. EXHIBIT A Adopted: July XX, 2026 358 Created: 2026-05-10 17:53:59 [EST] (Supp. No. 8, Update 1) Page 2 of 7 designee shall have the authority to implement any necessary or appropriate policies and procedures to apply the rebuttable presumption set forth in this section.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City has established several commissions which require public participation and membership and conducts recruitments annually and on an as-needed basis to appoint residents to fill vacancies. The City advertised the 2026 vacancies on the City website, social media, The Gem magazine, and the Desert Sun newspaper; and received 37 applications. Council and Housing Authority (Authority) will hold a special joint meeting on June 18, 2026, to interview and appoint applicants to fill the vacancies by ballot. Due to the high volume of applications received, staff recommends conducting the random draw determining the order of interviews in advance at the June 16, 2026, regular Council meeting, so that applicants can be provided with more definitive interview times. FISCAL IMPACT – None BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The City has established commissions to facilitate broader participation in City governance, to solicit a broad range of opinions on City issues, and to introduce citizens to the municipal government process. The City conducts recruitments annually and on an as-needed basis. The 2026 vacancies were advertised on the City website and social media from March through June 2026; in BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 2 365 the April and May issues of The Gem magazine; and the Desert Sun newspaper on April 10, 2026.

Prepared by: Monika Radeva, City Clerk Approved by: Jon McMillen, City Manager 366 City of La Quinta CITY COUNCIL MEETING: June 16, 2026 STAFF REPORT AGENDA TITLE: APPROVE REIMBURSEMENT AGREEMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS ATTACHED TO THE LA QUINTA VILLAGE APARTMENTS PROJECT AS CONDITIONS OF REGULATORY APPROVAL, AND AUTHORIZE APPROPRIATION OF CITY GENERAL FUND UNASSIGNED RESERVES THEREFOR; PROJECT LOCATION: NORTHEAST CORNER OF WASHINGTON STREET AND AVENUE 50; CEQA: CONFORMS WITH ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT 2022-0001 (MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION) RECOMMENDATION Approve a Reimbursement Agreement for Construction of Public Improvements attached to the La Quinta Village Apartments project as Conditions of Regulatory Approval; authorize the appropriation of City General Fund Unassigned Reserves in the amount of $5 million for payment of costs pursuant to the Reimbursement Agreement; and authorize the City Manager to execute the Reimbursement Agreement, substantially in the form attached to this staff report, and to take any additional actions necessary or proper to implement the Reimbursement Agreement. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On November 21, 2023, Council adopted: (1) Resolution No. 2023-038 approving a Mitigated Negative Declaration (Environmental Assessment (EA) 2022-0001), and (2) Resolution No. 2023-039 approving General Plan Amendment (GPA 2022- 0002), Specific Plan (SP 2022-0001), and Site Development Permit (SDP 2022- 0001) with Conditions of Regulatory Approval (COAs), for the La Quinta Village Apartments project consisting of 252 units total, with 74 units reserved for moderate income level residents (Project). On October 21, 2025, Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-025, approving Site Development Permit 2025-0005 (SDP 2025-0005), which granted a two-year time extension of the SDP 2022-0001 and COAs. The Project was approved and intended to be a private development, although multiple off-site public improvements were attached to the COAs. Since being entitled, property owner and developer notified the City that the costs have increased and requested a subsidy to assist with payment of public improvements. Staff proposes a not-to-exceed subsidy of $5 million to pay costs for water, electric, storm drain, street, sidewalk, and other public improvements, to be implemented via the proposed Reimbursement Agreement for Construction of Public Improvements (Reimbursement Agreement) (Attachment 1). BUSINESS SESSION ITEM NO. 3 367 FISCAL IMPACT The total funding commitment from the City would be $5 million, funded through an appropriation from the City’s General Fund Unassigned Reserve in fiscal year (FY) 2025/26. The City would hold the funds and make progress payments as may be requested by the developer and verified by City staff as eligible for reimbursement. Requests for any progress payment can be no more than once per month. Eligible reimbursement expenses fall into three general categories of public improvements: (1) Offsite Improvements under the City’s jurisdiction, which primarily consist of storm drain, street, sidewalk, curb, and gutter improvements along the portion of Washington Street fronting the Project and along a portion of Avenue 50 between Washington Street and the entryway of the Project from Avenue 50; (2) Electric Utility Improvements under Imperial Irrigation District’s (IID) jurisdiction, which include undergrounding of existing powerlines and increasing power supply and delivery from the Marshall Substation; and (3) Water System Improvements under Coachella Valley Water District’s (CVWD) jurisdiction. Current estimated costs for eligible public improvements are higher than $5 million, but, under the Reimbursement Agreement, the City’s maximum funding commitment for any eligible expenses is $5 million, with the developer responsible for paying any difference in costs for those public improvements. The City’s funding may not be used for the residential buildings or amenities, or other privately funded construction costs associated with the Project. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS On November 21, 2023, Council adopted: (1) Resolution No. 2023-038 approving a Mitigated Negative Declaration (EA 2022-0001), and (2) Resolution No. 2023-039 approving GPA 2022-0002, SP 2022-0001, and SDP 2022-0001 with COAs for the La Quinta Village Apartments project consisting of 252 units total, with 74 units designated as moderate income units, on a 13.84-acre parcel, located at the northeast corner of Washington Street and Avenue 50. On October 21, 2025, Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-025, approving SDP 2025-0005 and granting a two-year time extension for SDP 2022-0001 and COAs. The Project was approved as and intended to be a private development although multiple off-site public improvements were attached to the COAs. Since being entitled, the original applicant, property owner, and developer, Troutdale Village LLC (developer), notified the City that the costs have increased substantially since originally being entitled in 2023. Notably, costs associated with electric utility public improvements, water infrastructure, and street and sidewalk improvements have increased, such that the developer requested a subsidy to assist with payment of specified public improvements. The proposed Reimbursement Agreement has eligible reimbursement expenses divided into three general categories of public improvements: 1) Offsite Improvements under the City’s jurisdiction, which primarily consist of storm drain, street, sidewalk, curb, and gutter improvements along portions of Washington Street and Avenue 50; 368 2) Electric Utility Improvements under IID’s jurisdiction, which include undergrounding of existing powerlines and increasing power supply and delivery from the Marshall Substation; and 3) Water System Improvements under CVWD’s jurisdiction. Current estimated costs of the eligible expenses, as preliminarily determined by the City Engineer and developer’s retained engineer, exceed $5 million. Actual costs incurred may be more or less for public improvements under these three general categories. The Reimbursement Agreement provides some flexibility to “shift funding buckets” among the three general categories, depending upon payment timing and actual costs for the respective public improvements. However, the City’s total funding commitment for all public improvements, whether under the City’s, IID’s, or CVWD’s jurisdiction, will not exceed $5 million. Prior to any progress payment being made to the developer, the City has the right and obligation to verify the proposed expense is eligible for reimbursement. Typical provisions relating to the construction of public improvements under the City’s jurisdiction are included in the Reimbursement Agreement, such as posting bonds for completion of the public improvements’ construction, and completing the public improvements prior to issuance of the final certificate of occupancy for the Project. Other standard provisions are included in the Reimbursement Agreement. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The proposed Reimbursement Agreement does not change the Project because it serves as a public subsidy contract for public improvements under the COAs that attach to the development of the Project. As such, the proposed Reimbursement Agreement conforms with the previously adopted Environmental Assessment 2022-0001 (Mitigated Negative Declaration). No changes to the approved Project are proposed as a result; therefore, no new environmental documentation is required. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect not to approve the Reimbursement Agreement. The COAs remain in place, but, according to the developer, the lack of the proposed City subsidy will render the Project unfeasible.

In such event the costs of the Developer’s Authorized Contractor Security shall be subject to payment and reimbursement pursuant to Section 17 below. In the event the City Manager determines not to accept Developer’s Authorized Contractor Security in lieu of Security issued to Developer, and Developer reasonably determines that Developer’s Authorized Contractor Security is necessary to protect Developer, the costs of the Developer’s Authorized Contractor Security shall be subject to payment and reimbursement pursuant to Section 17 below. 13.6 Surety and Bonding Requirements for Non-City Agencies.

As used herein, the term “Construction Oversight Fee” shall mean a fee payable to Developer for providing construction management and supervision of the design and development of the Conditioned Public Improvements (including, without limitation, the out-of-pocket costs paid by Developer to a construction manager and overhead costs incurred by Developer in providing construction management services) in an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the portion of the Conditioned Public Improvements that is comprised of actual and documented hard construction costs, including labor, materials and equipment costs, but not including design costs, administration costs, or internal overhead (collectively, “Eligible Construction Costs”). The Construction Oversight Fee shall be payable on a monthly basis, based on the actual documented Eligible Construction Costs incurred during such month. 17.2 Payments. Subject to any request for funding advancement or reimbursement, not exceeding the City Funds Amount, Developer shall comply with the following process for requesting a payment from City for a portion of the Conditioned Public Improvements Costs (any such payment a “Partial Payment”): Subject to the terms of Section 17.3 below, not more than once per month commencing on the date the Work commences or the payment is otherwise owed to a public agency related to the Work, Developer may seek a payment from City by submitting to City a written request for payment, accompanied by conditional lien releases (for any work for which a lien may be filed), and detailed receipts, invoices or other documentation which evidence the amount owed, work completed and/or all expenses and labor costs associated therewith (collectively, a “Payment Request”). City shall review each Payment Request within thirty (30) days after receipt if the Payment Request concerns completed work or ten (10) days after receipt for a Payment Request that does not require the City to evaluate what Work has been completed. If (i) City determines that the Payment Request is complete and complies with the terms of this Section 17.2, (ii) to the extent applicable, City confirms the work for which a Partial Payment is requested has been satisfactorily completed, (iii) for a Payment Request not related to a payment to IID, the funds requested in the Payment Request (plus the ten percent (10%) retention amount allocated to such funds to the extent applicable) relate to Conditioned Public Improvements identified on the City (and if applicable, CVWD) approved public improvement plans and falling within the categories of Conditioned Public Improvements identified on Exhibit B; , and (iv) the Payment Request, if paid, does not exceed the total City Funds Amount, then within fifteen (15) days after City completes its review, City shall provide the requested Partial Payment to Developer. If City disputes any amount set forth in a Payment Request, City shall provide written notice of the amount in dispute and shall specify with reasonable particularity the grounds for such dispute within thirty (30) days after City’s receipt of the Payment Request. City shall pay all undisputed amounts within fifteen (15) days after City completes its review of the Payment Request and shall promptly meet and confer with Developer to resolve the dispute. Upon resolution of the dispute, City shall pay the agreed upon amount to Developer within fifteen (15) days following resolution of the dispute. 387 698/015610-0203 23697730.7 a06/11/26 -18- 17.3 Payment of Retention. Except where the Payment Request is for payment to a public agency for some of the Work, Developer may not obtain a Partial Payment for the ten percent (10%) retained from each Partial Payment pursuant to Section 17.2 above until (i) completion of the portion of the Work that is the subject of the Payment Request, as evidenced by Developer’s receipt of an engineer’s certification certifying completion, together with copies of unconditional lien releases from all contractors, subcontr actors and material suppliers providing work or materials in connection with the identified Conditioned Public Improvement(s), and (ii) the City, for any Work for which the City has permitting jurisdiction, or, for all other Work, the political subdivision (public agency) with jurisdiction over the identified Conditioned Public Improvement(s), has accepted as complete the construction that constitutes the identified Conditioned Public Improvement(s). City shall pay such amount within ten (10) days following satisfaction of items (i), (ii), and (iii) of this Section 17.3. 17.4 Plans and Budget. For Work over which the City has permitting jurisdiction, concurrently with or as part of the processing of the construction permit (or other ministerial permit) submitted by Developer pursuant to this Agreement or the COAs, as applicable, Developer shall submit to the City Engineer a budget for review and approval (the “City-Approved Conditioned Public Improvements Budget”), which may include line items, with estimated costs and expenses, for line items that fall under the categories and within the costs for the Estimated Conditioned Public Improvements Budget Costs identified in Exhibit B of this Agreement. For the City-Approved Conditioned Public Improvements Budget, and notwithstanding provisions in Section 17.3 to the contrary, if funds remain in the “Contingency” or other line item in the City -Approved Conditioned Public Improvements Budget, Developer may allocate funds from the “Contingency” or that other line item in the City-Approved Conditioned Public Improvements Budget to a line item in the City-Approved Conditioned Public Improvements Budget for which the funds requested in a Payment Request exceed the amount remaining in that line item. 17.5 Estimated Conditioned Public Improvement Budgeted Cost . Exhibit B includes a conceptual and preliminary cost estimate for each of the different Conditioned Public Improvement categories (the “Estimated Conditioned Public Improvements Budget Costs”). The individual line amounts identified on Exhibit B for each category are not binding on the Parties and do not limit or dictate the amounts the City will pay to Developer under each category. Provided at least some of the Conditioned Public Improvements within each category are paid for out of the City Funds Amount and the total of all Payment Requests for the Work does not exceed the maximum City Funds Amount, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Payment Requests and the City payments in response to the same will reflect a reallocation of costs identified on Exhibit B from one line item or category to a different line item or category. 18. Prevailing Wages. 18.1 Prevailing Wage Requirements for Conditioned Public Improvements. Developer shall comply with all applicable provisions of Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 1720) of Part 7 of Division 2 of the California Labor Code with respect to construction, installation, and/or repair of the Conditioned Public Improvements. Nothing 388 698/015610-0203 23697730.7 a06/11/26 -19- in this Agreement constitutes a representation or warranty by City that the construction of any of the Conditioned Public Improvements is or is not subject to Chapter 1 of Part 7 of the California Labor Code, and all applicable statutory regulatory provisions related thereto.

Developer shall indemnify, defend, with counsel reasonably acceptable to City , and hold City and its respective officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers (collectively, the “City Parties”) harmless for, from and against any suit, cost, attorneys’ fees, claim, administrative proceeding, damage, wage award, fine, penalty or liability directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to the payment or non-payment of prevailing wages in connection with the Work performed by Developer or its general contractor, including, without limitation, any action by a contractor or subcontractor pursuant to California Labor Code Section 1781, or otherwise, to recover any “increased costs” (as defined in California Labor Code Section 1781(c)(2), or otherwise) incurred in relation to the Conditioned Public Improvements. The obligation of Developer to so indemnify, defend and hold the Successor Agency and City Parties harmless shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no costs incurred by Developer pursuant to this Section shall be subject to reimbursement by City. 18.2 Indemnification Requirements Regarding Private Development. Developer acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with Developer’s development of the Project on the Property, Developer is required to develop and operate the Property pursuant to the Approvals.

It is agreed by the parties that as between themselves, in connection with the development and construction (as defined by applicable law or regulation) of the Property, including, without limitation, any and all public works (as defined by applicable law or regulation), Developer shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under applicable federal, state and local law or regulation and/or the implementation of Labor Code Section 1781 and/or by Davis Bacon, as the same may be amended from time to time, and/or any other similar law or regulation. “Increased costs,” as used in this Section 18.2, shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Labor Code Section 1781, as the same may be amended from time to time. The foregoing indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement and shall continue after completion of the construction and development of both (i) the Conditioned Public Improvements and (ii) the private Project on the Property, by Developer. 19. Relationship Between the Parties. The Parties hereby mutually agree that neither this Agreement nor any other entitlement, permit, or approval issued by City for the Property, including the Approvals, shall operate to create the relationship of partnership, joint venture, or agency between City and Developer.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Government Code Section 3502.3 [Stats. 2024, Ch. 409, McKinnor], enacted on September 22, 2024, by California Governor Newsom, requires public agencies to present an annual fiscal year report on workforce vacancies and recruitment/retention efforts at a public hearing before the governing board. Additional reporting is required under Government Code Section 3502.3 when job vacancies within the La Quinta City Employees’ Association (LQCEA) meet or exceed 20% of authorized full-time positions. The City currently has 10 vacant positions, reflecting a 9.80% vacancy rate; of which 8 positions are eligible for LQCEA membership, representing a 7.84% vacancy rate, which remains below the 20% threshold required for additional reporting. FISCAL IMPACT – None. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS In September of 2024, Government Section Code 3502.3 was enacted into state law. This statute requires public agencies to present an annual report on workforce vacancies and recruitment/retention efforts at a public hearing before the governing board, with recognized employee organizations allowed to provide input at their discretion. The summary report below outlines the City’s legal obligations under this statute.

As part of this effort, Human Resources is reviewing existing policies to identify additional recruitment approaches that may strengthen the City’s ability to attract qualified talent and ensure the best organizational fit. Human Resources is also working closely with departments to explore additional methods and tools that may support their recruitment efforts. In addition, the City’s upcoming Class and Compensation Study , required under the current Memorandum of Understanding, will provide a comprehensive comparison of salary and benefits packages across comparable agencies, as well as an analysis of similar roles. This information will support the City’s efforts to remain competitive within the labor market and update future recruitment strategies. Ongoing assessments are conducted to determine whether positions remain essential as work tasks evolve, supporting responsible workforce planning. This review process will continue as the City refines its recruitment strategies and evaluates opportunities for improvement.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY •Annually, Council must take certain actions pertaining to Citywide Landscape and Lighting Assessment District 89-1 (District) to allow the City to levy annual assessments. •These assessments currently fund approximately 25% of the citywide landscape, lighting, median, and parkway maintenance costs. Fiscal year (FY) 2026/27 assessment rate will remain at $35.60 per dwelling/parcel also identified as an Equivalent Benefit Unit (EBU). This has been the rate since 1997. •Adopting this resolution is necessary for the Riverside County Assessor to place the assessment on the tax roll for FY 2026/27. FISCAL IMPACT FY 2026/27 estimated cost for retention basin and right-of-way maintenance (landscaping and lighting maintenance for medians and parkways) is $4,000,756. The assessment charge will generate an estimated $1,001,491. The City will also receive $150,000 from County Service Area 152, levied by Riverside County, to fund retention basin maintenance. The combined income is projected to be $1,151,491; this leaves a shortfall of $2,849,265 to be funded by the General Fund. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS In 1989, the Council formed a District to fund costs associated with the maintenance, construction and servicing of landscape areas, streetlights and traffic signals. The District was modified in 1997 to conform to Proposition 218, which required the removal of PUBLIC HEARING ITEM NO. 2 405 maintenance costs for facilities that provide general benefit to the public such as parks, fire stations, and public buildings. Since 1997, the City’s District has only included maintenance costs for streets, streetlights, traffic signals, landscape medians, parkways and retention basins since these costs are considered “exempt” under Proposition 218. Beginning in 1997, maintenance of “non-exempt” items (i.e., facilities providing general benefit) were shown separately but still shown as part of the overall landscape maintenance budget. Proposition 218 requires that any assessment rate increase be supported by a benefits analysis and Citywide vote in favor of the increase. These requirements locked the assessment rate at $35.60 since 1997, while maintenance costs have nearly quadrupled. On June 2, 2026, the Council adopted the following resolutions: • Resolution No. 2026-012 approving the Preliminary Engineer’s Report for FY 2026/27 in connection with the District. • Resolution No. 2026-013 declaring intention to levy annual assessment for construction, maintenance, and servicing landscape and lighting improvements within the boundaries of the territory included in the citywide District and giving notice thereof. The engineer’s report must contain the following information: 1. A description of the services to be provided throughout the District; 2. Total costs necessary to provide all services described in the engineer’s report; 3. A diagram showing the boundaries of the District, includ ing special benefit zones; and 4. An assessment schedule. The final engineer’s report included as attachment 2 has been completed and establishes the maintenance budget and number of benefitting parcels. The chart below compares the projected FY 2026/27 data with FY 2025/26 data: 2026/27 2025/26 City wide Benefit Zone Yes Yes Number of Local Benefit Units 6 6 Number of Equivalent Benefit Units (EBUs) 28,132 28,149 EBU Rate $35.60/EBU $35.60/EBU District Revenue $1,001,491 $1,002,096 The City’s consultant, Willdan Financial Services, projects a decrease of 17 EBU’s from 2025/26 to 2026/27; actuals will be based on the final FY 2026/27 County Secured Tax Roll. This public hearing affords an opportunity for impacted property owners to ask questions regarding the District and to provide public testimony regarding any proposed changes. No 406 changes are proposed at this time. The City Council may adopt FY 2026/27 assessment fees only after the public hearing has been conducted. Should the Council receive testimony through the public meeting/hearing that warrants a change to the assessment level, the Council can lower the assessment by a majority vote. If lowered, the reduction in assessment level would impact the revenues necessary to fund the District’s 2026/27 operational budget. Council may also increase the assessment level but only by a special-benefit analysis and vote through a property-owner ballot. If service levels are not adjusted accordingly, the General Fund would be required to make up the difference. ALTERNATIVES Council may direct staff to adjust the engineer’s report to reflect any changes resulting from the public hearing. Should Council direct amendments to the engineer’s report, an amended report and impacts of the amendments would be submitted for approval at the July 21, 2026, Council meeting.

OVERVIEW A. INTRODUCTION The City of La Quinta (the “City”) annually levies and collects special assessments in order to provide and maintain the facilities, improvements and services within Street Lighting and Landscape District No. 89-1 (the “District”). The District was formed in 1989 pursuant to the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 (the “1972 Act”), Part 2 of Division 15 of the Streets and Highways Code and authorizes the Agency to annually levy and collect assessments to maintain the services and improvements related thereto. This Engineer’s Annual Levy Report (the “Report”) describes the District, any changes to the District, and the proposed assessments for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. The proposed assessments are based on the estimated cost to maintain improvements that provide special benefit to properties assessed within the District. The various improvements within the District and the costs of those improvements are identified and budgeted separately, including expenditures, deficits, surpluses, revenues, and reserves. The word “parcel,” for the purposes of this Report, refers to an individual property assigned its own Assessor Parcel Number (“APN”) by the Riverside County Assessor’s Office. The Riverside County Auditor/Controller uses Assessor Parcel Numbers and specific fund numbers on the tax roll to identify properties assessed for special district benefit assessments. Each parcel within the District is assessed proportionately for those improvements provided by the District and from which the parcel receives special benefit. Following consideration of public comments, written protests at a noticed public hearing and review of the Report, the City Council may order amendments to the Report or confirm the Report as submitted. Following final approval of the Report, and confirmation of the assessments, the City Council may order the levy and collection of assessments for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 pursuant to the 1972 Act. In such case, the assessment information will be submitted to the Riverside County Auditor/Controller and included on the property tax roll for each benefiting parcel for Fiscal Year 2026/2027. B. COMPLIANCE WITH CURRENT LEGISLATION The District was formed in 1989 pursuant to the 1972 Act. As such, the City has determined that pursuant to California Constitution Article XIIID Section 5 Subsection A the existing assessments are exempt from the substantive and procedural requirements of Proposition 218. Any new or increased assessments above the maximum assessment rates previously approved and levied by the City Council would be subject to both the substantive and procedural requirements of the Proposition. 415 2026/2027 City Of La Quinta L&L 89-1 Page 2 of 16 C. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND LEGISLATION The assessments for the District provide a special benefit to the parcels assessed, and the City utilizes General Fund Revenues to fund improvements and services that are considered general benefit. This District was formed pursuant to the 1972 Act, which permits the establishment of assessment districts by cities for the purpose of providing for the maintenance of certain public improvements, which include the facilities existing within the District, as those improvements provide a special benefit to parcels. The City Council reviews the current and projected years’ costs for the construction, operation, maintenance, and servicing of the District facilities and sets the assessment for the ensuing fiscal year, which runs between July 1 and June 30. II. DESCRIPTION OF THE DISTRICT A. DISTRICT BOUNDARIES AND SPECIFIC AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT The boundaries of the District are coterminous with the boundaries of the City.

METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT A. GENERAL The 1972 Act permits the establishment of assessment districts by agencies for the purpose of providing certain public improvements that include the construction, maintenance and servicing of public lights, landscaping and appurtenant facilities. The 1972 Act further requires that the cost of these improvements be levied according to benefit rather than assessed value: “The net amount to be assessed upon lands within an assessment district may be apportioned by any formula or method which fairly distributes the net amount among all assessable lots or parcels in proportion to the estimated benefits to be received by each such lot or parcel from the improvements.” The formula used for calculating assessments in this District therefore reflects the composition of the parcels, and the improvements and services provided, to apportion the costs based on benefit to each parcel. B. BENEFIT ANALYSIS Properties within the District boundary are found to derive a special benefit from the improvements provided by the District. These properties include single family residential, non-residential, vacant residential and non-residential, golf courses, agricultural and hillside conservation properties, vacant and remote non-residential and rural and estate residential properties. Special Benefits The method of apportionment (method of assessment) is based on the premise that each assessed parcel receives special benefit from the improvements maintained and funded by the assessments, specifically, landscaping and lighting improvements installed in connection with the development of these parcels. The desirability of properties within the District is enhanced by the presence of well- maintained landscaping and lighting improvements in close proximity to those properties. The annual assessments outlined in this Report are based on the estimated costs to provide necessary services, operation, administration, and maintenance required to ensure the satisfactory condition and quality of each improvement. The special benefits associated with the landscaping improvements are specifically: Enhanced desirability of properties through association with the 419 2026/2027 City Of La Quinta L&L 89-1 Page 6 of 16 improvements. Improved aesthetic appeal of properties within the District providing a positive representation of the area. Enhanced adaptation of the urban environment within the natural environment from adequate green space and landscaping. Environmental enhancement through improved erosion resistance, and dust and debris control. Increased sense of pride in ownership of property within the District resulting from well-maintained improvements associated with the properties. Reduced criminal activity and property-related crimes (especially vandalism) against properties in the District through well-maintained surroundings and amenities. Enhanced environmental quality of the parcels by moderating temperatures, providing oxygenation and attenuating noise. The special benefits of street lighting are the convenience, safety, and security of property, improvements, and goods, specifically: Enhanced deterrence of crime – an aid to police protection. Increased nighttime safety on roads and highways. Improved visibility of pedestrians and motorists. Improved ingress and egress to and from property. Reduced vandalism, damage to improvements or property, and other criminal acts. Improved traffic circulation and reduced nighttime accidents and personal property loss. Increased promotion of business during nighttime hours in the case of commercial properties. The preceding special benefits contribute to a specific enhancement and desirability of each of the assessed parcels within the District. C. METHODOLOGY Pursuant to the 1972 Act, the costs of the District may be apportioned by any formula or method that distributes the net amount to be assessed among the assessable parcels in proportion to the estimated special benefits to be received by each such parcel from the improvements. The special benefit formula used within the District should reflect the composition of the parcels - and the 420 2026/2027 City Of La Quinta L&L 89-1 Page 7 of 16 improvements and services provided therein - to apportion the costs based on estimated special benefit to each parcel. The cost to provide maintenance and service of the improvements within the District shall be equitably distributed among each assessable parcel based on the estimated special benefit received by each parcel. Equivalent Benefit Units To equitably spread special benefit to each parcel, it is necessary to establish a relationship between the various types of properties within the District and the improvements that benefit those properties. Each parcel within the District is assigned an Equivalent Benefit Unit (“EBU”) factor that reflects its land use, size and development, or development potential. Parcels that receive special benefit from the various District improvements are proportionately assessed for the cost of those improvements based on their calculated EBU. The EBU method assessment for this District uses the Single-Family Residential parcel as the basic unit of assessment. A Single Family Residential (“SFR”) parcel equals one EBU. Every other land-use is assigned an EBU factor based on an assessment formula that equates the property’s specific land-use and relative special benefits compared to the Single-Family Residential parcel. The EBU method of apportioning special benefits is typically seen as the most appropriate and equitable assessment methodology for districts formed under the 1972 Act, as the benefits to each parcel from the improvements are apportioned as a function of land use type, size, and development. The following table provides a listing of land use types, the EBU factors applied to that land use and the multiplying factor used to calculate each parcel’s individual EBU for each improvement provided in the District. During the formation of the District, a methodology was developed to calculate the EBUs for other residential and non-residential land use parcels, which are outlined below for reference. Every land use is assigned EBUs based on the assessment formula approved for the District. Parcels which have been determined to receive greater benefit than the SFR parcel are assigned more than 1 EBU and parcels that are determined to receive lesser benefit than SFR parcels are assigned less than 1 EBU as reflected in the Assessment Methodology. 421 2026/2027 City Of La Quinta L&L 89-1 Page 8 of 16 Single-Family Residential The City’s General Plan allows up to one acre of area for subdivided residential lots. The subdivided single-family lot equal to or less than one acre in size is the basic unit for calculation of benefit assessments. Parcels less than one acre in size zoned for single-family residential use are assessed one (1) EBU. Multi-Family Residential Multi-Family Residential parcels are assessed for one-half (0.5) EBU per unit. Non-Residential The factor used for converting nonresidential is based on the average number of typical single-family residential lots of five per acre. Therefore, non-residential parcels will be assessed five (5) EBUs per acre with a minimum number per parcel of one (1) EBU. Vacant Residential Parcels defined as single family residential parcels less than one acre and having no structure will be assessed 33 percent (33%) of a single-family dwelling, or 0.33 EBU per parcel. Vacant Non-Residential Parcels not considered single family residential parcels less than one acre and having no structure will be assessed based on acreage. The typical development in La Quinta occurs in increments of twenty (20) acres or less. The first twenty (20) acres of a Vacant Non-Residential parcel will be assessed at a rate of 33 percent (33%) of developed non-residential properties, or 1.65 EBU per acre or any portion of an acre. The minimum number of EBUs per parcel is one (1) EBU. Any parcel of land greater than twenty (20) acres is considered open space and exempt from assessment until such time as parcel subdivision or development occurs.

The parcel will be assessed as one dwelling unit per ten (10) acres or 0.10 EBU per acre or any portion of an acre. Vacant and Remote Non-Residential Parcels (LAFCO Annexation No. 9) Parcels not considered single family residential parcels less than one (1) acre and do not contain structures, will be assessed based on acreage. The City defines Vacant and Remote Non-Residential as parcels physically separated from City services and not readily able to develop due to difficult access and utility limitations. The land values are typically one half the value of other Vacant Non- Residential parcels because of the high cost of constructing appropriate access and utility infrastructures necessary. The Vacant and Remote Non-Residential parcels are assessed at a rate of 0.825 EBUs per acre or portion thereof, for the first twenty (20) acres, with a minimum of one (1) EBU per parcel. Rural/Estate Residential Parcels of one acre or more in size but having only one residential unit are identified as Rural/Estate Residential. These parcels will be assessed at a rate of one (1) EBU for the first acre and 0.33 EBUs for each additional acre or portion of an acre. Exempt Property Publicly owned property and utility rights-of-way are exempt from assessment, as well as parcels of land shown on the County Assessor's records as Vacant Desert Land, Vacant Mountain Land, Agricultural Preserve and Public Utility owned land. This Report does not propose an increase in the District’s assessment rates for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 over or above the maximum rate established. The proposed rate per EBU for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 is the same rate assessed for Fiscal Year 2025/2026. The base assessment rate to be approved for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 is $35.60. The maximum assessment rate per EBU may not increase without a vote of the property owners in the District. Therefore, the assessment is proposed to remain at the maximum amount of $35.60 per EBU. This equates to total projected 423 2026/2027 City Of La Quinta L&L 89-1 Page 10 of 16 assessment revenue of $1,001,491. The City proposes the remaining $7,965,291 be funded through a General Fund contribution of $7,815,291 and $150,000 of revenue from CSA 152. IV. DISTRICT BUDGETS A.

Make a finding, included in Ordinance No. ___, that adopting this ordinance is exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) Review of Exemptions – Common Sense Rule and is consistent with the previously approved General Plan 2035 Environmental Impact Report. B. Move to take up Ordinance No. ___ by title and number only and waive further reading. C. Move to introduce at first reading, Ordinance No. ___ to amend various sections of Title 9 of the La Quinta Municipal Code (Attachment 1). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Staff periodically reviews the zoning/municipal codes and proposes an annual update to clarify zoning regulations, add or revise definitions, and correct discrepancies in regulations. The proposed text amendments revise standards and criteria for walls/fencing, screening, yard structures, prohibited signs, incomplete application processing procedures, definitions, and other minor corrections. On May 12, 2026, the Planning Commission considered the proposed amendments and unanimously recommended City Council approval. FISCAL IMPACT – None. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM NO. 4 441 BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS The La Quinta Municipal Code (LQMC) is a key tool for implementing the City’s development standards, and maintaining an up-to-date code is essential for effectively regulating development. To support this, the Design and Development Department has instituted an annual update process that provides a regular framework for making minor updates and corrections to the text of the zoning and municipal codes. The amendments proposed for this cycle have been identified by staff through routine application of the code, as well as through efforts to ensure compliance with applicable State and Federal laws. However, no major policy changes are proposed as part of this annual update. The proposed corrections, additions, and updates include the following: Fences & Walls: For walls and fences not bordering streets, remove ambiguity for RC (Cove Residential) height limits and set height standard for combination (garden/retaining) walls at no higher than four feet retaining and six feet garden. Under materials, further clarify that standard gray concrete masonry unit block walls are only allowed when covered by treatment or with director approval. Screening of Equipment: Create consistency between various code references to required screening by requiring equipment be fully screened by masonry wall, fencing or landscape planting from surrounding streets and properties. Language regarding refuse and other containers moved to more appropriate location within Screening section. Prohibited Signs: Added signs with attachments to list of prohibited signs. Time Limit on Processing Applications: Establish process and ability to collect a fee for incomplete responses for entitlement applications to prevent applications from languishing for extensive periods of time without being processed through to the decision-making body. Definitions: Revise Village Hospitality Home definition to include reference to Chapter 3.25, Short Term Vacation Rentals, and ensure compliance with parameters therein. A table showing all proposed changes in strikeout/underline format, including notes on reasoning for the changes, is included as Attachment 2 to this staff report. 442 On May 12, 2026, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the subject amendments and required findings outlined in Section 9.220.020 of the La Quinta Zoning Code. After closing the hearing and deliberating, the Commission voted unanimously to recommend approval by the City Council. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION The Design and Development Department determined that the proposed zone text amendment is exempt from environmental review under CEQA, pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3), Review for Exemptions – Common Sense Rule, in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility for this action to have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning Commission concurred with this determination and recommended the City Council find that the proposed amendments qualify for this exemption. ALTERNATIVES Council may elect to adopt all or some of the proposed amendments or direct staff to provide additional information and continue to the public hearing, preferably to a date certain.

(2) The previous population is furnished by the Department of Finance. The Shaded boxes indicate the calculation factor that was used to calculate that year's Gann Limit. The Gann Limit is adjusted annually by multiplying the "Prior Year Gann Limit" (column 1) by the "% Change in Population" (column 4) and then by the greater of the "% Change in New Local Non-residential Construction or % Change in California Per Capita Income" (column 6 or 7). This Gann adjustment figure is then added to the prior year's limit amount to obtain the current year Gann limit amount in column 8. The U.S. CPI factor (column 5) was used in place of the non-residential construction (column 6) amount and the lower of the two factors, the U.S. CPI or Per Capita Income, for the calculation prior 'to FY 1990-91. The City has elected in column (2) and (3) to use the City population method versus the change in County population. CITY OF LA QUINTA RESOLUTION NO. 2026-XX EXHIBIT A Adopted: June 16, 2026 FY 2026/27 ADOPTED BUDGET 494 (Page 2 of 2) In 1979, Proposition 4, the "Gann" initiative, was passed. The Proposition created Article XIIIB of the State Constitution placing limits on the amount of revenue which can be spent by all entities of Government. The Gann limit is adjusted annually by the following two factors: Annual population change and the greater of the change in: 1) State Per Capita Income, or 2) The Local Assessment roll for local non-residential construction. When a City reaches this limit, excess tax revenue must be returned to the State or Citizens through a process of refunds, rebates, or other means that may be defined at that time. The Gann limit for the City of La Quinta has increased steadily since 1984 and still provides the City with a comfortable operating margin. The revenue collection and spending limit for City of La Quinta FY 2026/27 is $197.7 million. "Proceeds of taxes" are projected to be $85.4 million in FY 2026/27 allowing the City a margin of $112.3 million. On the graph below, the highest bars represent the spending limit and the lower bars represent the appropriation of proceeds of taxes for fifteen years. 42098 0 18-19 0 40605 41204 1.48% N/A N/A 3.67% GANN APPROPRIATION LIMIT ANALYSIS 0 20,000,000 40,000,000 60,000,000 80,000,000 100,000,000 120,000,000 140,000,000 160,000,000 180,000,000 200,000,000 12-13 13-14 14-15 15-16 16-17 17-18 18-19 19-20 20-21 21-22 22-23 23-24 24-25 25-26 26-27 CITY OF LA QUINTA SPENDING LIMIT VERSUS APPROPRIATION OF PROCEEDS OF TAXES Spending Limit Appropriation of Proceeds of Taxes CITY OF LA QUINTA RESOLUTION NO. 2026-XX EXHIBIT A Adopted: June 16, 2026 FY 2026/27 ADOPTED BUDGET 495 Description/Program Account Number Account Name Estimated Fiscal analysis for citywide projects 101-1002-60510 Contingency for Operations 200,000$ Marketing efforts to attract group business to hotels 101-1007-60536 TOT Resort Rebate Program 550,000$ Fire ladder truck purchase 101-2002-80101 Machinery & Equipment 375,000$ Citywide street repair/maintenance 101-7003-60691 Maintenance/Services 200,000$ $ 1,325,000 Heavy machinery/equipment 201-7003-80100 Machinery & Equipment $ 150,000 Tree maintenance 215-7004-60673 Tree Maintenance/Palm Trees $ 250,000 Dune Palms Mobile Estates improvements 241-9104-72110 Building/Site Improvements $ 400,000 Vehicle upgrades 501-0000-60675 Parts, Accessories and Upfits $ 50,000 Painting/repairs 501-0000-71103 City Bldg.

The proposed FY 2026/27 General Fund budget is balanced with a projected surplus of $347,030. A summary of revenues by category and expenditures by department is provided in Exhibit A. Upon adoption, Finance will prepare the final budget document for publication on the City’s website. The proposed budget reflects the City’s continued commitment to delivering high-quality public services while investing in community priorities, infrastructure improvements, facility maintenance, and economic development initiatives. The budget also supports long-term financial sustainability through conservative revenue projections, prudent reserve management, and strategic planning. By balancing current operational needs with investments in critical infrastructure and organizational priorities, the City remains well-positioned to maintain fiscal stability and respond to future opportunities and challenges. Since the June 2, 2026 Budget Study Session, no revenue adjustments have been made to the proposed FY 2026/27 Budget. Expenditure adjustments primarily include personnel-related changes totaling approximately $355,800. These adjustments reflect updated staffing assumptions, including the addition of four full-time positions, temporary staffing needs, and revised salary and benefit projections. Medical insurance costs are currently budgeted at existing rates, as final renewal rates have not yet been released. Any future increases above the budgeted amount can be accommodated through the City's staffing contingency. Additional expenditure adjustments from the initial proposed budget include: •An increase of $5 million in transfers out of Measure G reserves to the Financing Authority to support future electrical infrastructure improvements and related financing initiatives. Revenues 92,769,600$ Less Operating/CIP Expenses (96,922,570) Preliminary Budget Deficit (4,152,970) Use of Measure G Reserves 4,500,000 BUDGET SURPLUS 347,030$ GENERAL FUND FY 2026/27 PROPOSED BUDGET SUMMARY 499 • Contract services were reduced by approximately $70,000 due to a lower-than- anticipated annual increase for the citywide landscape maintenance contract. • Other adjustments include an increase of $10,000 to support scholarships through the La Quinta Youth Collective and $20,000 for community engagement activities, including community events and the annual Community Workshop. These revisions incorporate the most current revenue and expenditure projections and ensure the final budget accurately reflects the City’s operational needs, financial priorities, and long-term fiscal objectives. MEASURE G SUMMARY The Financial Advisory Commission was presented the Operating and Capital Improvement budgets and unanimously approved the budgetary uses of Measure G funds which is summarized below, including the utilization of Measure G reserves of $4.5 million for additional capital improvement projects and electrical infrastructure improvements. A historical summary is provided in Exhibit B. OTHER FUNDS The City operates 33 Special Revenue Funds, 4 Internal Service Funds, 2 Enterprise Funds and 3 Trust Funds. These funds are legally required to be held separately from the General Fund and are restricted for road repairs, recycling programs, art in public places, police programs, housing programs, bond requirements, golf course operations, internally administered services, and retiree benefits. A summary of revenue and expenses for all Funds is located in Exhibit C. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP) The Capital Improvement Program budget reflects the five-year plan adopted by Council and a summary of funded projects is located in Exhibit D. 2026/27 PERSONNEL SCHEDULE Exhibit E provides a summary of the citywide personnel schedule for Fiscal Year 2026/27, reflecting a total of 106 full-time positions and 7.20 part-time equivalent positions, representing 9 part-time employees. 2026/27 BUDGET RESOLUTION & APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT CALCULATION Annually, the City is required to prepare an Appropriations Limit Calculation (Gann Limit) in accordance with Article XIIIB of the State Constitution. The Gann initiative limits the Measure G Sales Tax Revenue 16,000,000$ Police Services - Capital Improvements (15,500,000) Electrical Infrastructure Improvements (5,000,000) Available for Appropriation (4,500,000)$ MEASURE G SALES TAX SUMMARY 500 growth in government spending to changes in population and inflation. The Gann Limit for 2026/27 is $197,743,130. This means that the City must not spend revenues in excess of this limitation. City revenues subject to the Gann Limit are $85,474,500; therefore, the City is significantly below the limit by a margin of $112,268,630 (Exhibit A to the Budget Resolution). The list of estimated continuing appropriations/carryovers (Exhibit B to the Budget Resolution) reflects City commitments to projects, services or purchases that were made in 2025/26 but will not be completed, fulfilled, or paid for by the end of the fiscal year. The continuing appropriations total is $3,525,000; of this amount $1,325,000 are General Fund carryovers and $2,200,000 are Special Funds. These unexpended funds remain available, but Council approval is needed to re-appropriate them for use in 2026/27 as all appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year. Capital project and grant carryovers are not included as they are part of the year-end auditing process and will be included in the 2025/26 year-end budget report. Exhibit C to the Budget Resolution depicts total General Fund reserves currently estimated to end 2025/26 at $125 million with a projected increase of $3.2 million to $128.2 million during fiscal year 2026/27. Projected fund balances for Measure G sales tax, public safety fund, fire services trust fund, carryovers/capital projects, pension and other employee benefit trusts are also provided. The proposed FY 2026/27 Budget maintains the City’s commitment to prudent financial management while continuing to invest in community priorities, essential services, infrastructure, and long-term organizational needs. The budget reflects a balanced approach that addresses current service demands, supports strategic initiatives, and preserves the City’s strong financial position. Through ongoing fiscal discipline and thoughtful planning, La Quinta remains well-equipped to adapt to changing economic conditions and capitalize on future opportunities. Any direction provided by the City Council during budget deliberations will be incorporated into the final adopted budget. 501 ESTIMATED CURRENT RESOURCES: REVENUES: TAX REVENUES 68,480,000$ LICENSES & PERMITS 2,384,500 INTERGOVERNMENTAL 13,103,000 CHARGES FOR SERVICES 1,035,500 FINES, FOREFEITURES & ABATEMENTS 275,000 USE OF MONEY & PROPERTY/MISCELLANEOUS 7,491,600 TOTAL ESTIMATED CURRENT RESOURCES 92,769,600$ ESTIMATED CURRENT REQUIREMENTS: EXPENDITURES: CITY COUNCIL 367,100$ CITY MANAGER DEPARTMENT 5,479,700 CITY MANAGER'S DIVISION 2,120,800 HUMAN RESOURCES 1,067,100 MARKETING/COMMUNITY RELATIONS 2,291,800 CITY ATTORNEY 1,200,000 CITY CLERK DEPARTMENT 1,692,300 COMMUNITY SERVICES 3,976,500 COMMUNITY SERVICES ADMINISTRATION 568,800 WELLNESS CENTER OPERATIONS 851,500 RECREATION PROGRAMS/SPECIAL EVENTS 2,556,200 PUBLIC SAFETY 36,235,267 POLICE 21,137,800 FIRE 12,603,367 CODE COMPLIANCE/ANIMAL CONTROL 2,143,600 PUBLIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION 350,500 PUBLIC WORKS 11,577,570 PARKS MAINTENANCE 5,054,600 PUBLIC BUILDINGS 2,364,170 PUBLIC WORKS ADMINISTRATION 951,700 DEVELOPMENT SERVICES 746,700 STREETS- TRAFFIC 1,151,600 ENGINEERING SERVICES 1,308,800 DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT 5,500,100 DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION 749,800 PLANNING 1,743,600 BUILDING 1,588,500 THE HUB 1,418,200 FISCAL SERVICES 30,894,033 FINANCE 2,260,100 CENTRAL SERVICES (Includes CIP)28,633,933 TOTAL ESTIMATED CURRENT REQUIREMENTS 96,922,570$ PRELIMINARY BUDGET SURPLUS/(DEFICIT) (4,152,970)$ USE OF MEASURE G SALES TAX RESERVES 4,500,000 BUDGET SURPLUS/(DEFICIT)347,030$ CITY OF LA QUINTA GENERAL FUND REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES BY DEPARTMENT/DIVISION FISCAL YEAR 2026/27 ADOPTED BUDGET CITY OF LA QUINTA EXHIBIT A FY 2026/27 ADOPTED BUDGET 502 Fiscal Year (FY) 2016/17 Actual 1,462,650$ 2017/18 Actual 9,967,657 2018/19 Actual 10,958,118 2019/20 Actual 10,310,526 2020/21 Actual 12,594,389 2021/22 Actual 15,615,802 2022/23 Actual 16,088,087 2023/24 Actual 15,471,183 2024/25 Actual 15,638,218 2025/26 Budget (Current)14,400,000 2026/27 Budget (Adopted)16,000,000 TOTAL 138,506,630$ Fiscal Year Operational Capital Reserves Total by Year 2016/17-2023/24 Total Operational- Public Safety 25,908,000 Total Capital- Various 33,075,038 33,485,374 92,468,412 2024/25 Public Safety Contract Services 7,300,000 Pavement Management Plan Street Improvements 1,000,000 Corporate Yard Administration Offices & Crew Quarters 900,000 Village Art Plaza Promenade & Cultural Campus 1,000,000 Highway 111 Corridor Area Plan Implementation 3,050,000 Fritz Burns Park Improvements 5,000,000 Citywide Dog Park Improvements 500,000 Welcome Center Improvements 750,000 Measure G Reserves 2024/25 (3,861,782) 15,638,218 2025/26 Public Safety Contract Services -

Respectfully submitted, Laurie McGinley, Commission Secretary City of La Quinta, California WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS CITY COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 1652026 CITY COUNCIL MEETING - JUNE 16, 2026 - WRITTEN PUBLIC COMMENTS BY RESIDENT ARLENE GOTSHALK PUBLIC COMMENTS ON MATTERS NOT ON THE AGENDA - REQUESTING TRAFFIC SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS IN THE COVE Subject: Request for Traffic Safety Improvements in La Quinta Cove Mayor Evans and City Council Members, I am requesting two traffic safety improvements in La Quinta Cove. What should be a quiet residential street has increasingly become a high-speed corridor, creating excessive noise and dangerous conditions for residents, pedestrians, and visitors accessing the Cove trails. To improve safety, I request: • Standardizing the speed limit to 25 MPH on Calle Tecate and Avenida Bermudas south of Calle Madrid. • Installing stop signs at Calle Tecate and Avenida Ohregon and at Calle Tecate and Avenida Bermudas 1. Standardize and Reduce the Speed Limit to 25 MPH. I respectfully request that the speed limit on Calle Tecate and Avenida Bermudas, beginning at Calle Madrid, be reduced and standardized to 25 MPH, consistent with Avenida Montezuma and the City's residential streets. Twenty-five miles per hour is the typical speed limit for residential neighborhoods, yet portions of Calle Tecate and Avenida Bermudas currently allow higher speeds despite serving the same residential community. Excessive speed creates a significant hazard for pedestrians crossing to access the Cove trails. Many residents, including myself, must cross Calle Tecate to reach the hiking trails. It is often difficult and unsafe to cross because vehicles travel well above the posted limits. A consistent 25 MPH speed limit would improve safety, reduce confusion for drivers, and better reflect the residential character of the neighborhood. 2. Install a Stop Sign at Calle Tecate and Avenida Obregon and at Calle Tecate and Avenida Bermudas For approximately two miles, drivers encounter four-way stop -controlled intersections throughout the Cove. However, at Avenida Obregon and Calle Tecate, that pattern ends, creating an unexpected and potentially dangerous situation for motorists and pedestrians. This intersection serves as a major pedestrian crossing point for residents accessing the trail system. Drivers frequently fail to yield, forcing pedestrians to wait extended periods or search for a safe crossing. I would also ask the City to evaluate the need for a stop sign at Avenida Bermudas and Calle Tecate or at the entrance to the parking lot for similar reasons. In addition, this location has a history of serious accidents. During my years living in the Cove, there have been multiple crashes involving vehicles failing to make the turn onto Calle Tecate, including collisions with utility poles that caused widespread power outages and at least one fatality. A stop sign would help calm traffic and improve safety at this critical intersection. Thank you for your consideration of these requests and for your continued commitment to public safety in La Quinta.
