ITEM NO. Im c.i x ,.,SA �aBiE� FROM: DATE: -401,310141 l� Chair and Members of the Measure BP Stakeholders Oversight Committee (SOC) Enrique C. Zaldivar, City Manager March 12, 2024 Proposal- Request For Measure BP Funding- Public Works Department- Bus Stops ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) Upgrades - One Crew Cab Pick Up Truck- One Backhoe SUMMARY Bus Stop locations in the city serve either the City of Baldwin Transit System, the regional bus systems or both. Ensuring that they are all in compliance with ADA requirements is critical to making them fully accessible and safe for all our communities. Some need to be upgraded with concrete pads, while others need a bench or proper signage. Proposal will upgrade all stops to have a concrete pad, a bench and proper signage Proposal also includes the purchase of one full-size crew cab pickup truck for the Landscaping Crew and one backhoe equipment for use across the Public Works department. RECOMMENDATION Approve Measure BP Funding for: 1. The construction upgrades of designated bus stops across the City to meet ADA Standards at a minimum, and 2. For the Lease of One Full Size Crew Cab Pick -Up Truck, and 3. For the Purchase of One Backhoe Loader (Kubota Tractor) for use across the Public Works Department. Investment Opportunity Category: Street Infrastructure Subcategories: Bus Stops; Equipment Requester: Public Works Department Dollar Amount Requested: $502,076.00 (including contingency) Forward Recommendation to City Council FISCAL IMPACT Requested funding will be a direct drawdown from the Measure BP Fund. As of January 31, 2024, the Fund balance was $4.67 million, minus 2024 drawdown of $397,732.00 from previous SOC approved requests, for an estimated net balance of $4.26 million, more than sufficient to cover this request of $502,076.00. SOC has approved Measure BP Funding for previous requests in the amount of $2.46 million to -date. The breakdown of the estimate for the request is as follows: Bus Stops ADA Compliance Upgrades: $322,500.00 Full Size Crew Cab Pick -Up Truck: $74,931.00 Kubota Tractor: $59,000.00 Contingency (At the Discretion of the CEO): $45,645 Total Request: $502,076.00 Page 1 / 2 C•KHRIJum Bus Stops in the City are designated locations where the transit systems pick-up and drop-off passengers for local or regional transportation. Features and amenities at each of the bus stops vary from the most basic with just signpost to those with a bus shelter, lighting, and street furniture such as a bench and trash receptacle. There are a total of 87 bus stops across the City. The proposed project will bring all bus stops to a minimum standard of full compliance with ADA requirements, which will include a level concrete pad wide enough for wheelchair access, a bench, and a signpost. Improvements to the sidewalk immediately adjacent to the bus stop will also be made as necessary. The full-size crew cab truck will replace a 2003 full size extended cab truck in the Parks Division. The Parks maintenance crew for the Public Works Department generally work with the Court Referral Program are generally assigned work orders based on crew of three or more, and they stay as a group throughout the day. A full-size crew cab pickup truck that enables the transport of at least four individuals along with their tools and supplies is essential for the maintenance of the City's public right-of-way, and the beautification of the City's streets. Having a dependable tractor is critical to public works field operations to perform maintenance, construction, and repair activities that are essential to the functioning of the City's parks and public spaces; ranging from a aerating turf to prevent soil compaction, spreader to cover large areas in parks with spreading grass seed, trenching for installing irrigation pipes, box grader for prepping and grading a site for turf, etc. The tractor currently in use is over 21 years old, breaks down frequently and is no longer dependable. DISCUSSION Public Works Field Operations Staff will perform most of the upgrade work needed at the bus stops. However, if the work requires more capacity than exists in-house, it will be contracted out. Supplies as needed like benches, trash receptacles, signage, etc., will be acquired thru the City's purchasing system. The Crew Cab pick-up truck and the Tractor will be lease thru the City's Purchasing Policy. ALTERNATIVES None being recommended. LEGAL REVIEW This report has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney as to legal form and content. ATTACHMENTS 1. Staff Report from the Public Works Department to the CEO.

This request includes funding for bus stop enhancements including upgrades to meet ADA standards at various locations. The project will furnish improvements to forty-three (43) bus stop locations within the City of Baldwin Park bus network which will include, the installation of curb, gutter, landing pad, sidewalk, ADA compliant access ramps, trash receptacles, and solar trash compactors. Additionally, this request includes funding for the procurement of a new Kubota Tractor and replacement of one (1) heavy-duty Public Works maintenance truck through the City Lease Program. FUNDING REQUEST The following table below lists the requested funding: 1. Bus Stops Enhancements including ADA Compliance Upgrades: $322,500.00 2. Heavy -Duty Crew Cab Pick -Up Truck: $74,931.00 (5yr Lease) - $20,755.80 in FY23-24) 3. Kubota Tractor: $59,000.00 4. Contingency (At the Discretion of the CEO): $45,645 5. Total Request: $502,076.00 ($447,900.00 FY23-24, $54,176 FY24-25 through FY27-28) BACKGROUND There are 87 bus stops within the City's jurisdiction that service Foothill Transit, LA Metro and the City's own local transit systems. Amenities at these stops generally vary but at a minimum all stops include signage identifying the bus line servicing the stop. There are 58 stops with bus shelters, trash receptacles and solar -powered lighting among other amenities. Approximately one-third of the bus shelters are located within the City's Downtown area. The City of Baldwin Park's Maintenance Division within the Department of Public Works is responsible for the maintenance and operations of the City's infrastructure. The Maintenance Division is comprised of Fleet, Street, Street Landscape, Graffiti, Traffic & Lighting, and Park maintenance crews. Relying on dependable and is crucial to performing these necessary tasks and projects. Our current Public Works Fleet is comprised of 31 vehicles and 18 pieces of equipment. The average age of the fleet is 14.5 years of age, while some pieces of equipment are as old as 44 years of age. DISCUSSION Improving bus stops to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements is crucial for ensuring accessibility and inelusivity for individuals with disabilities. The ADA is a federal law in the United States that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities and mandates equal opportunities in various aspects of life, including public transportation. This proposed project will bring essential ADA-compliant enhancements to forty-three (43) bus stop locations. The enhancements will also include the installation of curb, gutter, landing pad, sidewalk, ADA compliant access ramps, trash receptacles, and solar trash compactors. Supplemental funding, from approved CDBG funding in the amount of $160,000 will be applied to this project. If approved, engineering staff will develop plans as specifications and prepare the project for public bid per the City's bidding process. The procurement of Public Works vehicles, specifically the Kubota Tractor and the heavy-duty truck, are essential for the efficient functioning and performance of the Public Works Maintenance Division. The Kubota Tractor offers versatile capabilities crucial for maintaining City parks enabling staff to undertake a wide range of tasks, from landscaping and turf maintenance to site grading operations including trenching for irrigation and other utilities. The heavy-duty work truck provides the necessary mobility and transportation of personnel and equipment, facilitating timely responses to emergencies, routine maintenance, and infrastructure repairs. Both units are beyond their recommended useful life and continue to require frequent repairs leading to costly downtime. Procurement of both vehicles will bring efficiencies to Public Works operational capacities necessary for the continued maintenance of the City's infrastructure. If approved, maintenance staff will procure the Kubota tractor per the City purchasing policy, including soliciting quotes and preparing report for City Council approval. The heavy-duty work truck will be added to the fleet via the City's Lease Program. ATTACHMENTS 1. Kubota Tractor Quote from Glen B. Donning, Inc. 2. F-250 Crew cab quote from Enterprise 3.
