CITY OF FORM #9 I.S H LAN D §ITAMUL EP OCN/�"S E- ® JZM'14�3A ® ®R7 To: City Council, Local Contract Review Board From: Paula Brown, Public Works Date: 9/16/19 Subject: REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF A SPECIAL PROCUREMENT In accordance with ORS279B.085,this request for approval of a Special Procurement is being presented to the City Council for approval. This written request for approval describes the proposed contracting procedure and the goods or services or the class of goods or services to be acquired through the special procurement and the circumstances that justify the use of a special procurement under the standards set forth ORS 279B.085(4). 1. Requesting Department Name: Public Works 2. Department Contact Name: Kaylea Kathol 3. Type of Request: Class Special Procurement ✓Contract-specific Special Procurement 4. Time Period Requested: From 10/1/19 To: 12/31/2020 5. Total Estimated Cost: $15,000 6. Short title of the Procurement: Riparian Restoration,Roca Creek Sediment Basin Supplies and/or Services or class of Supplies and/or Services to be acquired: Revegetation services will be acquired. Contractor will remove and legally dispose of existing blackberry suppression tarps and associated rubbish,will provide riparian vegetation specified by City, supply labor and materials to reseed and replant the site,including vegetation protection items like tree guards and plastic mulch,and will provide a year of establishment maintenance. 7.Background and Proposed Contracting Procedure: Provide a description of what has been done in the past and the proposed procedure.The Agency may,but is not required to,also include the following types of documents:Notice/Advertising, Solicitation(s),Bid/Proposal Forms(s), Contract Form(s),and any other documents or forms to be used in the proposed contracting procedure. Attach additional sheets as needed. Background: The City is implementing a comprehensive riparian restoration and shading program in waterways within City boundaries to comply with its Clean Water Act (CWA) obligation. A substantial amount of riparian restoration will occur on Parks-managed lands and will require limited application of herbicide to eliminate blackberries that have overtaken most riparian areas. APRC Form#9-Special Procurement—Request for Approval,Page 1 of 4,9/18/2019 granted the City a limited exemption to their pesticide ban and requested that the City make an effort to experiment with non-chemical options for blackberry control. The City identified the sediment basin at Roca Creek,in Evergreen Park, as an ideal pilot site for non- chemical blackberry treatment prior to riparian restoration. Non-chemical treatments of blackberry have been completed, and the site is ready for fall planting. The City reached out to Plant Oregon, who will be involved in the shading program as a sub-contractor, and requested a quote for revegetation of Roca Creek sediment basin. Plant Oregon quoted $11,740 for labor and materials for all site preparation and restoration,and an optional$3,360 for one year of maintenance ttaclkeo). Proposed procedure: The City is prepared to directly award a contract to Plant Oregon for$15,100. Plant Oregon will remove and legally dispose of the existing blackberry-elimination materials, which include black tarps that cover the banks, and the sandbags and staples that hold the tarps in place. Plant Oregon will then seed this site with a cover crop of grasses that will further suppress blackberry growth, and then plant the site with a pallet of willow, spirea, and hawthorn. These fast-growing riparian species were selected for their potential to out-compete blackberry. New plantings will be protected by squares of plastic mulch and plastic tree guards to prevent predation. Plant Oregon will maintain the site for a one-year period. 8. Justification for use of Special Procurement: Describe the circumstances that justify the use of a Special Procurement. Attach relevant documentation. This is an experimental/pilot site. Its purpose is to identify whether riparian restoration can be successful when non-chemical weed treatments are used. Because we will be comparing it to chemically treated sites,it is important that we keep as many factors consistent as possible between the two types of treatments. By utilizing Plant Oregon, the City can be assured of consistency in vegetation stock (including rearing, handling, and transport), site preparation, planting methods, and maintenance methods. It is therefore in the City's best interest to hire Plant Oregon to achieve the unique needs of this project. 9. Findings to Satisfy the Required Standards: This proposed special procurement: ✓ (a)will be unlikely to encourage favoritism in the awarding of public contracts or to substantially diminish competition for public contracts because: The City's reason for seeking non-competitive award to Plant Oregon is not rooted in favoritism. This is the first time that the City's project manager(Kathol)has hired Plant Oregon—there is no historical record of hiring this contractor that could suggest favoritism is at play. The City rarely performs experimental/pilot projects, and even more infrequently do such projects involve riparian restoration. There is no reason to suspect that the unique needs of this project will diminish competition for future public contracts. (Please provide specific information that demonstrates how the proposed Special Procurement meets this requirement.);and (b)(i)will result in substantial cost savings to the contracting agency or to the public because: (Please provide the total estimate cost savings to be gained and the rationale for determining the cost savings);or Form#9-Special Procurement—Request for Approval,Page 2 of 4,9/18/2019 • • ✓ (b)(ii)will otherwise substantially promote the public interest in a manner that could not practicably be realized by complying with the requirements of ORS 279B.055,279B.060,279B.065, or 279B.070,or any rules adopted thereunder because: ORS 279B.070 (intermediate procurement) is the only applicable rule listed above. It requires three informal quotes and allows the contracting agency to select the vendor who "will best serve the interests of the contracting agency, taking into account prices as well as consideration including, but not limited to, experience, ex.ertise, .roduct functionali , suitabili for a 'articular . •ose and contractor res.onsibili ". irk- gr-a'es ie ares Ta t a' is iuv ,ro'ee. 's o rc olicate flat a - i•is and ee, a clues sea b, ani*ego ® . Menem T3rtoj cc:. Plant Oregon provides a product and a service that meets the City's primary interest of "suitability for a particular purpose". It would be a poor use of staff time and vendor time to seek additional quotes when we've already determined that Plant Oregon is the most suitable vendor for replicating Plant Oregon. (Please provide specific information that demonstrates how the proposed Special Procurement meets this requirement.)

This special procurement will facilitate a pilot study on the effectiveness of a pesticide-free approach to restoring degraded riparian areas. The contract includes a process to remove and dispose of the existing blackberry- elimination materials,which include black tarps that cover the banks, and the sandbags and staples that hold the tarps in place; seeding the site with a cover crop of grasses to further suppress blackberry growth, and then plant the site with a mixture of willow, spirea, and hawthorn. These fast-growing riparian species were selected for their potential to out-compete blackberry. The contractor will also maintain the site for a one-year period. POLICIES,PLANS & GOALS SUPPORTED Council Goals: Essential Services: Stormwater Department Goals: • Maintain existing infrastructure to meet regulatory requirements and minimize life-cycle costs • Evaluate all city infrastructure regarding planning management and financial resources PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION None BACKGROUND AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION A Special Procurement sourcing method is used for the purpose of seeking an exemption from the competitive bid process, custom designing a contracting approach, or the direct selection or award of a public contract or for a series of contracts. The Special Procurement Approval Request Form with written findings is attached for your review and consideration. The City Council, acting as the Local Contract Review Board,may approval this request for a Special Procurement if it is determined,based on written findings,that the Special Procurement will be unlikely to encourage favoritism in the awarding of public contracts or to substantially diminish competition for public contracts, and result in substantial cost savings or substantially promote the public interest in a manner that could not be realized by complying with the requirements that are applicable in ORS 279B.055,279B.060,279B.065, or 279B.070. FISCAL IMPACTS This special procurement will cost$15,100. The Roca Creek sediment basin is a structural component of the City's storm sewer system.Funds are budgeted each fiscal year for repairs and maintenance of stormwater infrastructure. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends City Council, acting as the Local Contract Review Board, approve this Special Procurement. Page 1 of 2 CITY OF ASH LAN D ACTIONS, OPTIONS & POTENTIAL MOTIONS 1.

Plant Oregon carries insurance coverages that are lower the City's standards, including$1M general liability(City requires $2M)and$1M automobile liability(City requires $2M). I believe the City's requirements are not necessary for this project based on the reasons provided below. General Liability It is my opinion that the contractor will be performing work that does not present a risk to the public. They will be planting vegetation in an area that is not readily accessed by the Public. Their work,which will include digging,planting, and spreading seed,will be done chiefly by hand. Heavy equipment will not be present. Aerial platforms will not be used. The site will be dewatered, so there will be no risk associated with in-water work. Automobile Liability This project will not require the operation of a vehicle on City-owned property. For about 3 days,Plant Oregon will use a vehicle to transport workers and material to the job site. The vehicle will park in the public right-of- way on N Wightman,next to the sediment pond. Otherwise,no vehicle or heavy equipment use will be required for this job. I believe that the type of driving,the spatial extent of where an automobile will be operated,and the duration of automobile operations do not necessitate the City's requirement for$1M in coverage.
