B. Approval of Minutes Recommendation: That the City Council approve the regular meeting minutes of May 12, 2020. C. Assignment of Professional Services Agreement to Levine Management Group, Inc. for Property Management Services The Rosemead Housing Development Corporation operates two senior apartment communities: Angelus Senior Housing located at 2417 Angelus Street and Garvey Senior Housing located at 9118 Garvey Avenue. Angelus was built in 1994 and is comprised of 51 residential dwelling units. Garvey was built in 2002 and is comprised of 72 residential dwelling units. Both senior apartment communities are currently managed by Levine Management Group, Inc. The Rosemead Housing Development Corporation entered into the agreements with Levine when both projects were under construction in 1994 and 2002, respectively. Both agreements are "evergreen" and are automatically renewed annually. Since the City's current Purchasing Policy does not allow contracts to exceed (5) years in duration, it was necessary to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit bids from qualified firms and enter into a new agreement for property management services. Recommendation: That the City Council, sitting as the Rosemead Housing Development Corporation Board of Directors, take the following actions: 1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Levine Management Group, Inc. to provide property management services for two senior apartment communities Angelus Senior Housing and Garvey Senior Housing at a cost of $49.00 per unit per month with an annual cost of living increase in the management fee based on the annual change in the "All Urban" Consumer Price Index (CPI -U) increase for the Los Angeles County Area; and 2. The term of the agreement shall be for three (3) years with two (2) one-year options beginning on July 1, 2021. 3 Rosemead City Council & Housing Development Corporation Regular Joint Meeting Agenda June 8, 2021 D. Contract Extension for Professional Services Agreement with Lance, Soll & Lunghard, LLP for Auditing Services In 2018, the City Council awarded a three-year contract with two additional one- year extensions to Lance, Soll & Lungard, LLP for auditing services. The City has completed the initial term of the contract and staff recommends the acceptance of the two additional one-year extensions. Approval of the extension would extend the contract through the FY 2021-22 audit period. Recommendation: That the City Council take the following actions: 1. Accept and approve the two additional one-year extensions provided within the current auditing service contract with Lance, Soll & Lunghard, LLP; and 2. Authorize the City Manager to sign any required contract extension documents. E. City Network and Communication Infrastructure Upgrades — TPx Communications The City's network and communication infrastructure system (internet and VOIP phone) is over ten years old and is near "end -of -life" (i.e., equipment is no longer sold and/or updated). During this period, the City made incremental updates but the overall system requires a substantial upgrade to maintain the necessary connection, speeds, and network protections to operate efficiently. TPx Communications (formerly TelePacific) has been the service provider since 2010 and the current service agreement expires between April -October 2022 (depending on the facility location). As the City plans to fully reopen from COVID-19, staff has been working with TPx to develop a comprehensive network and communication system plan that would improve and protect the City's infrastructure. The proposed recurring monthly charge of $12,941 per month will increase the monthly service cost by approximately $3,000 and has been incorporated in the FY 2021-2022 budget. Recommendation: That the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the proposed Service Agreement with TPx for upgrades and services to the City's network and communication infrastructure. 5.

The work is progressing, but the new fees will not be ready for implementation by July 1. Staff is therefore presenting an interim Fee Schedule to be used until the study is finalized and accepted by the City Council. Very few changes are proposed at this time, but highlights include the restoration of business license fees that were temporarily reduced for FY 2020-21 and charges for credit card acceptance. Recommendation: That the City Council approve Resolution No. 2021-30, entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING A COMPREHENSIVE SCHEDULE OF FEES AND CHARGES FOR FY 2021-22 C.
