As of March 12, City ManagerPeter Zanoni has implemented Stage 2 Watering Restrictions consistent with City Council approved policy in the Drought Contingency Plan. Corpus Christi Water customers have been in Stage 1 Water Restrictions since June 14, 2022 (636 days). The water restrictions apply to all CCW customers in Corpus Christi, including residential, multi-family, commercial and industrial. The following Stage 2 Water Restrictions are now in effect: Outdoor watering with irrigation or sprinklers is permitted once every other week on residential trash pickup daybefore 10:00 a.m. or after 6:00 p.m. Outdoor watering in the Calallen area will be based on the last digit of the customer's address. City crews will continue to prioritize responding to water system repairs and leaks. The City will continue ongoing educational outreach on restriction requirements and water level awareness. Citations will be issued for failure to follow Stage 2 water restrictions after warnings have been given. The citation could result in fines of up to $500 per violation per day. Enforcement includes nights and weekends. Irrigation of landscaped areas is permitted on any day if done by a hand-held hose (with a positive shut-off valve), a faucet filled bucket of 5 gallons or by a drip irrigation system (with a positive shut-off device). Customers can reference their specific area's watering map and scheduleby visiting www.cctexas.com.

SUMMARY: The proposed lease agreement between the City of Corpus Christi and Sterling Air Service LLC for premises located at the Corpus Christi International Airport for an initial term of fifteen years with one option to extend the term for an additional five years. Monthly rent totals $17,675.51 for a total annual rent of $212,106.12. During the initial term of the lease, all rental rates will undergo a 3% increase annually beginning October 1, 2024, and all properties will be reappraised at the conclusion of the initial term of the lease. The lease agreement is for multiple locations for hangars, storage, fuel farm, apron, parking, and office facilities on the east side of the airport. With the execution of this lease agreement, Sterling Air Service will meet all Minimum Standards to become a Fixed Based Operator, along with all privileges and obligations that are associated with operating as this class of operator. The lease was approved by the Airport Board on September 27, 2023. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Sterling Air Service is an existing tenant at CCIA in good standing with multiple leased premises and provides pilot and aircraft services for various clients including Driscoll Children Hospital. They own and manage a fleet of aircraft including single and twin- engine propeller and turboprop aircraft. Sterling Air Service has been a good tenant during its tenure at CCIA. Until 2020, CCIA had two based FBOs on site- Atlantic Aviation on the west side of the airport and Signature Flight Support on the east side of the airport. Each FBO had multiple tenants of their own who operated under subleases. Sterling partially operated under a sublease with Signature Flight Support on the east side of the airfield. Upon withdrawal from CCIA in March 2020, the City entered a management directly. The new size and scope of the lease allows Sterling Air Service to meet the standards for a Fixed Based Operator set forth by the Minimum Standards for Commercial Aeronautical Service Providers document approved by the Airport Board in May 2017. Becoming a Fixed Based Operator (FBO) allows Sterling Air Service to provide a wider scope of services to airport customers, most importantly the ability to sell fuel. CCIA currently has one FBO, Atlantic Aviation, located on the west side of the airfield; adding a second FBO will introduce competition, increase the air stimulate economic growth at CCIA. The lease agreement requires Sterling Air Service to invest a minimum of $1,100,000 in capital improvements in the first ten years of the term, and an additional $1,100,000 in the first 3yrs of the renewal period. The City will acknowledge a credit in the amount of $358,903 during the initial term for capital improvements for fuel farm improvements already completed on the leased premises. ALTERNATIVES: The alternatives include issuing a formal solicitation for an FBO operator. This alternative would require another company to construct additional facilities, including a fuel farm facility, or for the City to lease the referenced properties to a third party, requiring Sterling Aviation to sublease them. FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed new lease agreement will provide CCIA with additional rent revenue of $212,106 per year.

TITLE 16.01 It is expressly understood and agreed that any and all trade fixtures, furniture, equipment, and improvements that may be reasonably removed, placed or maintained by Lessee in the Leased Premises during the Term hereof shall be and remain Lessee’s property, and the Leased Premises returned to its original condition at the sole expense of Lessee, normal wear and tear excepted. Provided that Lessee is not in default under this Lease, it may remove or cause to be removed all such items from the Leased Premises, with any damage caused by such removal repaired at the Lessee’s sole expense. At City’s sole election, any such items remaining on the Leased Premises more than ten (10) days after the expiration or termination of the term hereof, shall then belong to City without payment of consideration therefor. 16.02Unlessotherwiseprovided,allfoundations,buildings,alterations,additionsor improvements (“Improvements”) made upon the Leased Premises by Lessee are and shall be the property of Lessee during the Term hereof. During said Term, absent the Aviation Director’s written approval, such Improvements shall be conveyed, transferred or assigned, only to a person or entity to whom this Lease is being transferred or assigned, whereupon such Improvements shall become the property of the holder of the leasehold interest hereunder. Absent such written approval of the Director any attempted conveyance, transfer or assignment of Improvements, to any person or entity, whether voluntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall be void and of no effect. 16.03 Title to Improvements made upon the Leased Premises by Lessee, and fixtures annexed thereto, shall vest in and become the property of the City, at no cost to City and without any instrument of conveyance, upon the expiration of the Term of this Lease or upon earlier termination thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee covenants and agrees, upon City’s demand, on or after termination of the Lease, to execute any instruments requested by City in connection with the conveyance of such Improvements. City shall notify Lessee whether or not City intends take title to Improvements, or any portion thereof, as herein provided, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Term of this Lease or earlier termination thereof. The City’s failure to provide such notice, however, shall not act as a waiver of its rights hereunder; provided that City, within a reasonable time after receipt of Lessee’s written request, advises Lessee of its election hereunder. No obligations under this section herein are waived by the termination of this Lease. 16.04 Should City elect not to take title to Improvements, or any portion thereof, as provided in Section 16.03 above, same shall be removed by Lessee, at its sole cost and risk, no later than midnight of the expiration or termination date of the Lease, in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and, to the degree reasonably possible, the Leased Premises shall be restored to the condition that existed prior to the construction of same, provided however, that Lessee shall not be required to demolish or remove any building, structure or improvement that was the subject of a Capital Improvement Plan. Should Lessee fail to undertake such removal within ninety (90) days following the expiration or termination of this Lease, City may undertake such removal at Lessee’s expense. The performance guarantee, required under this Lease, may not be applied towards any costs incurred by City for such removal. ARTICLE 17. ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE 17.01 Lessee agrees that it shall, at its sole expense, comply with all applicable federal, state and local statutes, laws, ordinances, rules and regulations concerning the use and operation of all fuel storage facilities presently existing upon the Leased Premises, including, but not limited to, regulations promulgated by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) as well as all inspection, financial liability and inventory control recording requirements of the EPA, and that it shall provide City with copies of certificates of registration from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) for any existing fuel storage facilities, together with copies of any required proof of financial responsibility and other documentation, such as an :Accord Form" certificate of insurance applicable to above ground fuel storage tanks, income statements or balance sheets, reasonably required by the Aviation Director or applicable regulatory agency. For purposes of this provision, “facilities” are defined as any mobile or fixed, onshore building, structure, installation, equipment, pipe, or pipeline used in fuel storage, fuel gathering, fuel transfer, or fuel distribution. 17.02 During the Term of this Lease and any extensions thereof, should changes in applicable statutes, laws, rules or regulations regarding fuel storage facilities and/or dispensing equipment necessitate the removal, modification or replacement of any component, piping, valves, or connections comprising part of the fuel storage facilities and/or dispensing equipment, potentially including the entire fuel storage facilities, in, on, upon or under the Leased Premises, then such removal, modification or replacement shall be timely undertaken and performed by Lessee, at its sole cost and expense. Furthermore, if requested by City, Lessee shall, no later than Midnight of the termination or expiration of this Lease, at its sole cost, remove said fuel storage facilities, dispensing equipment and/or component(s) thereof from the Leased Premises, perform any required soil or other investigations, perform regulatory remediation and restore the Leased Premises in a condition that complies with all applicable statutes, laws, rules, or regulations governing fuel storage facilities. Provided, however, that if Lessee has made significant improvements to such fuel storage facilities and/or dispensing equipment, as determined and approved by the Aviation Director, whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, such removal by Lessee upon termination or expiration shall not be required. Any such removal of Lessee’s property shall be coordinated by Lessee so that there is no unreasonable interference with Airport customers’ use of the Airport or of other aeronautical service providers’ use and occupancy of other areas at the Airport. In the event Lessee plans to conduct any environmental remediation work on the Leased Premises, Lessee shall give the Aviation Director and the aeronautical service providers adjacent to Lessee written notice of the same, with a general description of the work to be conducted, including if Lessee anticipates that such work will impact the use and occupancy of adjacent areas at the Airport and, if so, how Lessee intends to minimize such impact. Following the termination or expiration of this Lease, City will conduct a comprehensive environmental assessment to determine compliance with TCEQ and/or EPA standards, at Lessee’s sole expense, to reasonably determine if any environmental pollution or contamination exists and, if so, an accepted contamination removal program shall be implemented at Lessee’s sole expense. Lessee or any City approved sub lessee shall remain liable for any discharge if contamination is found at a future date if such discharge is the responsibility of Lessee or sub lessee. 17.03 Lessee shall, in conducting any activity or business on the Leased Premises, including environmental response or remedial activities, comply with all environmental laws, including, but not limited to, those regarding the generation, storage, use, transportation and disposal of solid wastes, hazardous materials, toxic chemicals, special wastes or other contaminants, and all laws, regulations and notice requirements pertaining to releases or threatened releases of hazardous materials, toxic chemicals, special wastes or other contaminants into the environment. Lessee shall not cause the release, or permit its employees, agents, permittees, contractors, subcontractors, sublessees, or others in Lessee's control, supervision, or employment, to release (whether by way of uncapping, pouring, spilling, spraying, spreading, attaching or otherwise), into or onto the Leased Premises or any other location upon or above the Airport (including the air, ground and ground water thereunder and the sewer and storm water drainage systems thereon), any quantity of hazardous substances (as defined or established from time to time by applicable local, state, or federal law and including, among other things, hazardous waste and any other substances that have been or may in the future be determined to be toxic, hazardous or unsafe). To the extent any such release may exceed quantities or volumes permitted by applicable federal, Texas or local law, Lessee shall immediately notify the Aviation Director, TCEQ, and Local Emergency Planning Committee, as may be required under the federal Emergency Planning andCommunityRightToKnowAct.TheLessee, oranyoccupantofLeasedPremises,shall be responsible for compliance with said Act, in the event of any such release. 17.04 Lessee shall remedy any release or threatened release caused by Lessee’s operations at the Airport, as described above and, whether resulting from such release or otherwise, remove any hazardous materials, special wastes and any other environmental contamination caused by Lessee on, under or upon the Leased Premises, as may be required by a governmental or regulatory agency responsible for enforcing environmental laws and regulations. Such work shall be performed, at Lessee's sole expense, after Lessee submits to City a plan, approved in writing by the appropriate governmental or regulatory agency(ies) responsible for enforcing such environmental laws and regulations, for completing such work. City shall have the right to review and inspect all such work at any time, using consultants and representatives of its choice, at City’s sole cost and expense. Specific cleanup levels for any environmental remedial work shall be designed to meet all of the applicable environmental laws and regulations, to the satisfaction of the appropriate government or regulatory agency responsible for enforcing environmental laws and regulations. 17.05 Lessee agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City, its elected and appointed officials, officers, agents and employees, from and against any and all reasonable losses, claims, liability, damages, injunctive relief, injuries to person, property or natural resources, costs, expenses, enforcement actions, actions or causes of action, fines and penalties, arising as a result of action or inaction of Lessee, its employees, agents or contractors, in connection with the release, threatened release or presence of any hazardous material, contaminants, or toxic chemicals at, on, under, over or upon the Leased Premises or Airport, whether or not foreseeable. The foregoing indemnity includes, without limitation, all reasonable costs at law or in equity for removal, clean-up, remediation and disposal required to bring the Leased Premises or Airport to be in compliance with, all applicable environmental laws and regulations and all reasonable costs associated with claims for damages to persons, property or natural resources arising out of Lessee's use and occupancy of the Leased Premises or its operations at the Airport. In the event that the City, it’s elected and appointed officials, officers, agents and employees is named in any enforcement action or lawsuit by any party in connection with the environmental condition of the Leased Premises caused by the action or inaction of the Lessee, Lessee shall defend the City, it’s elected and appointed officials, officers, agents and employees and indemnify and hold harmless City, it’s elected and appointed officials, officers, agents and employees from any reasonable costs, damages, fines and penalties resulting therefrom. 17.06 Nothing in this Lease shall prohibit Lessee from pursuing contribution or indemnity for such cleanup costs or remediation by other responsible parties and the Aviation Director shall provide reasonable cooperation and coordination in such endeavors. 17.07 In addition to any other rights of access herein regarding the Leased Premises, City shall, upon reasonable notice, have access thereto in order to inspect and confirm that the Lessee is using same in accordance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Lessee shall, upon the Aviation Director's reasonable demand and at Lessee's sole expense, demonstrate to said Director (through such tests, professional inspections, samplings, or other methods as may be reasonably required by said Director) that Lessee has not caused or permitted any release of hazardous substances or contaminants in excess of quantities or volumes permitted by applicable federal, Texas or local law. Qualified independent experts, chosen by Lessee, subject to City’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, shall conduct any such tests and assessments. Lessee shall provide copies of reports from any such testing or assessments to City upon receipt. Should Lessee not provide same to City, City may conduct, or cause to be conducted, such tests, inspections, samplings and assessments, and Lessee shall reimburse City for all costs of such actions, no later than thirty (30) days following receipt by Lessee of invoices therefor. City reserves the right to conduct any of the above actions, at the Aviation Director’s discretion, when in the opinion of same, additional or supplemental assessments are in City’s best interest. 17.08 Lessee, at City’s request, shall make available for inspection and copying, upon reasonable notice and at reasonable times, any or all of the non-privileged documents and materials Lessee has prepared pursuant to any environmental law or regulation, which may be retained by City or submitted to any governmental regulatory agency; provided, such documents and materials relate to environmental regulatory compliance and pertain to the Airport or the Leased Premises. If any environmental law or regulation requires Lessee to file any notice or report of a release or threatened release of regulated materials on, under or about the Leased Premises or the Airport, Lessee shall promptly submit such notice or report to the appropriate governmental agency and simultaneously provide a copy of such report or notice to City. In the event that any written allegation, claim, demand, action or notice is made against Lessee regarding Lessee's failure or alleged failure to comply with any environmental law or regulation, Lessee, as soon as practicable, shall notify City in writing and provide same with copies of any such written allegations, claims, demands, notices or actions so made. 17.09 The parties to this Lease, including the tenants or sublessees who may enjoy a future right of occupation through Lessee, acknowledge a right and a duty in City, exercised by the Aviation Director, to review safety and potential environmental impacts of any proposed operation, business, maintenance or other activity of the Lessee and its sublessees. To this end, said Director shall have authority to disapprove an activity of the Lessee and/or any sublessee not otherwise expressly permitted under this Lease, on the basis of a risk assessment. The parties understand that Leased Premises are not intended for use involving refining, processing, manufacturing, maintenance (not already required by the Minimum Standards), overhaul, or similar heavy industrial activities entailing use, storage, manufacture, or transport of critical volumes of regulated or hazardous materials or toxic chemicals. For purposes of this Lease, “critical volumes” are those which pose or may pose an unreasonable risk to Airport property, its occupants, employees or the traveling public. ARTICLE 18. SIGNS Any signs installed on the Leased Premises shall be submitted to the Aviation Director for approval prior to installation. Lessee shall neither erect signs nor distribute advertising matter upon Airport Premises, without the prior written consent of the Aviation Director. All signage must be in compliance with applicable City code standards and restrictions. ARTICLE 19. REGULATIONS Lessee's officers, agents, employees, contractors, subcontractors, tenants and subtenants shall obey all rules and regulations promulgated by City, its authorized agents in charge of the Airport, or other lawful authority, to insure the safe and orderly conduct of operations and traffic thereon. ARTICLE20.QUALITYOFSERVICES Lessee shall, at all times, furnish good, prompt and efficient commercial aviation services, in compliance with the applicable Minimum Standards, adequate to meet demand for same at the Airport, furnish said services on a non-discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and charge non- discriminatory prices for each unit of sale or service; provided, however, that Lessee will be allowed to make reasonable and non-discriminatory discounts, rebates or other similar types of price reductions to volume purchasers. ARTICLE 21. TIME OF EMERGENCY During time of war or national emergency, City shall have the right to lease the landing area or any part thereof to the United States for government use, and, if such lease is executed, the provisions of this Lease, insofar as they are inconsistent with those of the Government lease, shall be suspended. ARTICLE 22. SUBORDINATION OF LEASE & RIGHT OF RECAPTURE 22.01 This Lease shall be subordinate to the provisions of any existing or future agreement between City and the United States of America and/or the State of Texas regarding operation or maintenance of the Airport, the execution of which has been or may be required as a condition precedent to the expenditure of Federal or state funds for the development of the Airport. Should the effect of such agreement with the United States be to take any of the property under lease, or substantially alter or destroy the commercial value of the leasehold interest granted herein, City shall not be held liable therefore, but, in such event, Lessee may cancel this Lease upon ten (10) days' written notice to City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, City agrees that, in the event it becomes aware of any such proposed or pending agreement or taking, City shall utilize its best efforts to give the maximum possible notice thereof to Lessee. Any portion of the Leased Premises recaptured from Lessee under this provision shall result in a proportionate abatement of rent as of the date the recapture is effectuated. 22.02 City shall have the right to recapture any or all of the Leased Premises to the extent that such are necessary for the City's development, improvement, and or maintenance of the Airport's runways and taxiways; for protection or enhancement of flight operations; or for other development in compliance with any current or future Airport Master Plan and Airport layout plan. In the event of any such recapture, Lessee and City shall execute an amendment reflecting a corresponding adjustment to the Leased Premises and rent, according to the then applicable rental rates. In the event Lessee has made an investment in accordance with an approved Capital Improvement Plan during the Initial Term of this Agreement or any extension thereof and a portion or all of the Leased Premises are recaptured, the total Direct Construction Costs for the approved Capital Improvement Plan during the Term of the Lease shall be amortized on a straight line basis over the Initial Term or the Renewal Period of the Lease Agreement (whichever is applicable) and a payment issued by the City to the Lessee for the unamortized amount of the Direct Construction Costs for the approved Capital Improvements completed by Lessee and accepted by the City for the remaining balance of the Initial Term or Renewal Period of the Lease Agreement. The City will make this payment to Lessee within 60 calendar days following delivery by Lessee to City of all necessary invoices, checks, contracts or other financial or construction documents necessary for the City to calculate the unamortized amount of Direct Construction Costs invested by Lessee in the Capital Improvements which has not been amortized. 22.03 City shall have the right to recapture any or all of the Leased Premises to the extent that such are necessary for the City’s development, improvement, and or maintenance of the Airport’s runways and taxiways; for protection or enhancement of flight operations; or for other development in compliance with any current or future Airport Master Plan and Airport layout plan. In the event of any such recapture, Lessee and City shall execute an Amended Agreement reflecting a corresponding adjustment to the Leased Premises and rent. ARTICLE 23. SECURITY 23.01 Lessee shall comply with all rules, regulations, statutes, orders, directives or other mandates of the United States or State of Texas, regarding Airport security requirements or measures. Additionally, Lessee shall comply with the Airport Security Program, as may be amended from time to time, a copy of which will be provided by City to Lessee upon request. 23.02 City reserves the right to require Lessee to install access control system(s) and/or surveillance cameras at all points of access from public areas to security-restricted areas. Airport security officials must be able to access, inspect and monitor such access control system(s) and/or surveillance cameras. 23.03 Lessee shall comply with all current and future mandates of the Transportation Security Administration, of successor agency, for background investigations of its personnel. 23.02 Lessee shall indemnify and hold harmless City, its officers and employees from any charges, fines or penalties that may be assessed or levied by any department or agency of the United States or State of Texas, by reason of Lessee's failure to comply with any applicable security provision and/or requirement for compliance set forth herein. Lessee is responsible for payment of all such fines and penalties. ARTICLE 24. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 24.01 Each of the following shall constitute an event of default by Lessee or its parent company, successor company or related company(ies): (a) Lessee shall fail to pay any rent as provided for in this Lease Agreement and such failure shall continue for a period of ten (10) days after receipt by Lessee of written notice thereof. (b) Lessee shall neglect or fail to perform or observe any of the terms, provisions, conditions or covenants herein contained, and if such neglect or failure should continue for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Lessee of written notice of same, or if more than thirty (30) days shall be required because of the nature of the default, if Lessee shall fail within said thirty (30) day period to commence and thereafter diligently proceed to cure such default. (c) Lessee shall become insolvent; take the benefit of any present or future insolvency statute; make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or a petition or answer seeking a reorganization or the readjustment of its indebtedness under the federal bankruptcy laws, or under any other law or statute of the United States or of any state thereof; or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of all or substantially all of its property. (d)An Order of Relief shall be entered, at the request of Lessee or any of its creditors, under federal bankruptcy, reorganization laws or any law or statute of the United States or any state thereof. (e) A petition under any part of the federal bankruptcy laws, or an action under any present or future insolvency law or statute, shall be filed against Lessee and shall not be dismissed within thirty (30) days after the filing thereof. (f) Pursuant to, or under the authority of, any legislative act, resolution, rule, or any court, governmental, agency or board order or decree or officer, a receiver, trustee, or liquidator shall take possession or control of all or substantially all of the property of Lessee and such possession or control shall continue in effect for a period of fifteen (15) days. (g) Lessee shall become a corporation in dissolution or voluntarily or involuntarily forfeit its corporate charter. (h) The rights of Lessee hereunder shall be transferred to, pass to or devolve upon, by operations of law or otherwise, any other person, firm, corporation or other entity, in connection with or as a result of any bankruptcy, insolvency, trusteeship, liquidation or other proceeding or occurrence described in Paragraphs c through g of this Section 24.01. (i) Lessee shall voluntarily discontinue its operations at the Airport for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days. (j) If Lessee sells, transfers or assigns this Lease to or is sold, transferred or assigned this Lease from any entity or organization that have an interest in any other FBO operating at the Airport. 24.02 In the event any default shall occur, City then, or at any time thereafter, but prior to the removal of such condition of default, shall have the right, at its election, either to terminate this Lease and/or any sublease agreements that Lessee may have, by giving at least five (5) days written notice to Lessee, at which time Lessee will then quit and surrender the Leased Premises to City, but Lessee shall remain liable as herein provided, or enter upon and take possession of the Leased Premises (or any part thereof in the name of the whole), without demand or notice, and repossess the same as of the City's former estate, expelling Lessee and those claiming under Lessee, forcibly if necessary, without prejudice to any remedy for arrears of rent or preceding breach of Lease. 24.03 City's repossession of the Leased Premises shall neither be construed as an election to terminate this Lease and/or any sublease agreements that Lessee may have nor shall it cause a forfeiture of rents or other charges remaining to be paid during the balance of the term hereof, unless a written notice of such intention be given to Lessee, or unless such termination is decreed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 24.04 Upon repossession, City shall have the right, at its election, whether or not this Lease and/or any sublease agreements that Lessee may have shall be terminated, to relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof for such period(s), which may extend beyond the term hereof, at such rent and upon such other terms and conditions as City may, in good faith, deem advisable. Notwithstanding any law or anything contained herein to the contrary, to the full extent permitted under applicable law, Lessee and City agree that City's duty to relet the Leased Premises or otherwise to mitigate damages hereunder shall be limited to those requirementssetforthintheTexasPropertyCode,as amended.Cityshallinnoeventbe liable, and Lessee's and sub lessees’ liability shall not be affected or diminished whatsoever, for failure to relet the Leased Premises, or in the event the Leased Premises are relet, for failure to collect any rental under such reletting, so long as the City uses objectively reasonable efforts to comply with said Property Code. City and Lessee agree that any such duty shall be satisfied and City shall be deemed to have used objective reasonable efforts to relet the Leased Premises and mitigate City’s damages by: (a) posting a “For Lease” sign on the Leased Premises; (b) advising City’s lease agent, if any, of the availability of the Leased Premises; and (c) advising at least one (1) outside commercial brokerage entity of the availability of the Premises. 24.05 In the event that City elects to relet the Leased Premises, rentals received by same from such reletting shall be applied: first, to the payment of any indebtedness, other than rent due hereunder from Lessee under this Lease; second, to the payment of any cost of such reletting; third, to the payment of rent due and unpaid hereunder; and finally, the residue, if any, shall be held by City and applied hereunder. Should that portion of such rentals received from such reletting during any month, which is applied to the payment of rent hereunder, be less than the rent payable during that month by Lessee hereunder, then Lessee shall pay such deficiency to City. Such deficiency shall be calculated and paid monthly. Lessee shall also pay to City, as soon as ascertained, any costs and expenses incurred by City in such reletting not covered by the rentals received from such reletting of the Leased Premises. 24.06 If City shall terminate this Lease or take possession of the Leased Premises by reason of a condition of default, Lessee and those holding under Lessee, shall forthwith remove their goods and effects from the Leased Premises. If Lessee or any such claimant shall fail to effect such removal forthwith, City may, without liability to Lessee or those claiming under Lessee, remove such goods and effects and store same for the account of Lessee or of the owner thereof at any place selected by City, or, at City's election, and upon giving fifteen (15) days’ written notice to Lessee of date, time and location of sale, City may sell the same at public auction or private sale on such terms and conditions as to price, payment and otherwise, as City in its sole discretion may deem advisable. If, in City's judgment, the cost of removing and storing, or of removing and selling any such goods and effects, exceeds the value thereof or the probable sale price thereof, as the case may be, City shall have the right to dispose of such goods in any manner City may deem advisable. 24.07 Lessee shall be responsible for all costs of removal, storage and sale, and City shall have the rightto reimburse the Airport from the proceeds of any sale for all such costs paid or incurred by City. If any surplus sale proceeds remain after such reimbursement, City may deduct from such surplus any other sum due to City hereunder and shall pay over to Lessee any remaining balance of such surplus sale proceeds. 24.08 If City shall enter into and repossess the Leased Premises as a result of Lessee’s default in the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions herein contained, then Lessee hereby covenants and agrees that it will not claim the right to redeem or re-enter the said Premises to restore the operation of this Lease, and Lessee hereby waives the right, and the right of any party claiming through or under Lessee, to such redemption and re-entrance under any present or future law, and does hereby further, for any party claiming through or under Lessee, expressly waive its right, if any, to make payment of any sum or sums of rent, or otherwise, of which Lessee shall have made default under any of the covenants of the Lease and to claim any subrogation of the rights of Lessee under these presents, or any of the covenants thereof, by reason of such payment. 24.09 All rights and remedies of City herein created or otherwise existing at law are cumulative, and the exercise of one or more rights or remedies shall not be taken to exclude or waive the right to the exercise of any other. All such rights and remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently, whenever and as often as deemed desirable. 24.10 If proceedings shall, at any time, be commenced for recovery of possession, as aforesaid, and compromise or settlement shall be effected either before or after judgment whereby Lessee shall be permitted to retain possession of the Leased Premises, then such proceeding shall not constitute a waiver of any condition or agreement contained herein or of any subsequent breach thereof or to this Lease. 24.11 Any amount paid or expense or liability incurred by City for the account of Lessee may be deemed to be additional rental and the same may, at the option of City, be added to any rent then due or thereafter falling due hereunder. ARTICLE 25. HOLDING OVER It is agreed and understood that any holding over by Lessee or sublessee, with City’s written consent, at sole discretion of City, after the termination of this Lease, shall not renew and extend same, but shall operate and be construed as a tenancy from month-to-month, not to exceed six (6) months, upon all the terms and conditions set forth herein, except that rental shall be paid to City by Lessee for all buildings on the Leased Premises at one hundred twenty- five percent (125%) the then current rents, fees and charges in effect as of the end of the primary term of this Lease or the ground rental rate established through appraisal. Lessee shall be liable to City for all loss or damage resulting from such holding over against City's will after the termination of this Lease, whether such loss or damage may be contemplated at this time or not. It is expressly agreed that acceptance of the foregoing rental by City, in the event that Lessee fails or refuses to surrender possession, shall not operate to give Lessee any right to remain in possession beyond the period for which such amount has been paid nor shall it constitute a waiver by City of its right to immediate possession thereafter. ARTICLE 26. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLET 26.01 Lessee shall not transfer or assign this Lease or Lessee's interest in or to the Leased Premises, or any part thereof, without having first obtained City’s prior written consent, which may be given only by or pursuant to an ordinance enacted by the City Council of the City of Corpus Christi, Texas. Lessee may not assign or sublet this Lease to any other FBO operating at the Airport or to any entity or organization that has any financial, equity or ownership interest in any other FBO operating at the Airport. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for so long as any pledge or collateral assignment of Lessee's interest in the Lease shall be by instrument substantially in such form as shall have previously been approved by the City Council, the consent of City to such pledge or collateral assignment may be given by City acting by and through the Aviation Director. 26.02 Lessee shall not sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof without having first obtained the Aviation Director’s written consent, which will be granted in the Aviation Director’s sole discretion, and co-signature to any sublease. Failure either to obtain City's prior written consent or to comply with the provisions herein contained shall operate to prevent any such transfer, assignment or subletting from becoming effective. In the event Lessee requests permission to sublease, the request shall be submitted to the said Director prior to the effective date of the sublease requested andshallbeaccompaniedbyacopyoftheproposed sublease agreement(s) and of all agreement(s) collateral thereto. The identity of the sublessee, the area or space to be subleased, the rental to be charged, the type of business to be conducted, reasonable financial history and all other relevant information requested by said Director shall be specified. It is expressly understood and agreed that the storage of aircraft inside any hangar at the Leased Premises pursuant to what is commonly referred to as a “use and occupancy agreement” as part of the permitted FBO services offered at the Airport shall not constitute a sublease which would otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of this section 26.02. 26.03 Should the subletting of the Leased Premises be approved by City, however, Lessee agrees and acknowledges that it shall remain fully and primarily liable under this Lease, notwithstanding any such sublease and that any such sublessee shall be required to attorn to City hereunder. 26.04 The receipt by the City of rent from an assignee, subtenant or occupant of the Leased Premises shall not be deemed a waiver of the covenant in this Lease against assignment and subletting or an acceptance of the assignee, subtenant or occupant as a tenant or a release of the Lessee from further observance or performance by Lessee of the covenants contained in this Lease. No provision of this Lease shall be deemed to have been waived by the City, unless such waiver is in writing, signed by the Aviation Director. ARTICLE 27. FIRE AND OTHER DAMAGE 27.01 In the event the Leased Premises shall be partially damaged by fire or other casualty through no fault of Lessee, Lessee shall give immediate notice thereof to City and the Leased Premises shall be repaired, at City’s expense, without unreasonable delay, unless City determines that the damage is so extensive that repair or rebuilding is not feasible. From the date of such casualty until repair, monthly rents, fees and charges hereunder shall abate based on the proportion of the Leased Premises destroyed, or rendered unhabitable, bears to the total Premises; provided, however, that if said Premises shall be so slightly damaged in any such way so as to be rendered unusable, the rent hereunder shall not cease or be abated during any repair period. In the event that the damage to the Premises, by fire or other casualty, is so extensive that the Premises are rendered wholly unusable, and such damage to the Premises, in the exclusive judgment of City, makes occupancy and use to be impractical, then at the option of the City, and upon notice to Lessee, this Lease, as it applies to said Premises, shall cease, and the rent hereunder shall be apportioned and paid up to date of such damage. If the City elects to restore the Premises, City shall notify Lessee of such intention within thirty (30) days of the date of the damage, otherwise the Lease, as applicable to said Premises, shall be deemed canceled and of no further force or effect. 27.02 The City’s obligation to rebuild or repair under this Article shall, in any event, be limited to restoring said Leased Premises to substantially the condition that existed prior to the commencement of Lessee’s Capital Improvements, if any, performed by Lessee and shall further be limited to the extent of the insurance proceeds available to City for such restoration. Lessee agrees that if the City elects to repair or rebuild as set forth in this Article, then Lessee will proceed with reasonable diligence, at its sole cost and expense, to rebuild, repair and restore its Capital Improvements to the Leased Premises, signs, fixtures, furnishings, equipment and other items provided or installed by Lessee in or about the Leased Premises in a manner and to a condition at least equal to that which existed prior to the damage or destruction.

Part 38, currently, also sets out rules and requirements that pertain to recipient and subrecipient ("subgrantee") organizations that engage in or conduct explicitly religious activities, as well as rules and requirements that pertain to recipients and subrecipients that are faith-based or religious organizations. The text of 28 C.F.R. Part 38 is available via the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (currently accessible at https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/ECFR?page=browse), by browsing to Title 28-Judicial Administration, Chapter 1, Part 38, under e-CFR "current" data. 2 Compliance with DOJ regulations pertaining to civil rights and nondiscrimination - 28 C.F.R.

Part 200, as adopted and supplemented by DOJ in 2 C.F.R. Part 2800 (together, the "Part 200 Uniform Requirements") apply to this FY 2022 award from OJP. The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY 2022 award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number (e.g., funds awarded during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with respect to all funds under that award number (regardless of the award date, and regardless of whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental award) that are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award. For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP awards and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at https://ojp.gov/funding/Part200UniformRequirements.htm.

Compliance with any assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award. Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions" (ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices- AwardReqts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award. By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance. Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate. Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812). Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award. 6 Employment eligibility verification for hiring under the award 1.

The recipient's failure to comply also may lead OJP to impose additional appropriate conditions on this award. 14 Compliance with 41 U.S.C. 4712 (including prohibitions on reprisal; notice to employees) The recipient (and any subrecipient at any tier) must comply with, and is subject to, all applicable provisions of 41 U.S.C. 4712, including all applicable provisions that prohibit, under specified circumstances, discrimination against an employee as reprisal for the employee's disclosure of information related to gross mismanagement of a federal grant, a gross waste of federal funds, an abuse of authority relating to a federal grant, a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety, or a violation of law, rule, or regulation related to a federal grant. The recipient also must inform its employees, in writing (and in the predominant native language of the workforce), of employee rights and remedies under 41 U.S.C. 4712. Should a question arise as to the applicability of the provisions of 41 U.S.C. 4712 to this award, the recipient is to contact the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) for guidance. 15 Requirement to report actual or imminent breach of personally identifiable information (PII) The recipient (and any "subrecipient" at any tier) must have written procedures in place to respond in the event of an actual or imminent "breach" (OMB M-17-12) if it (or a subrecipient) -- (1) creates, collects, uses, processes, stores, maintains, disseminates, discloses, or disposes of "Personally Identifiable Information (PII)" (2 CFR 200.1) within the scope of an OJP grant-funded program or activity, or (2) uses or operates a "Federal information system" (OMB Circular A-130).

Reg. 51225 (October 1, 2009), DOJ encourages recipients and subrecipients ("subgrantees") to adopt and enforce policies banning employees from text messaging while driving any vehicle during the course of performing work funded by this award, and to establish workplace safety policies and conduct education, awareness, and other outreach to decrease crashes caused by distracted drivers. 21 Restrictions and certifications regarding non-disclosure agreements and related matters https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr11/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award No recipient or subrecipient ("subgrantee") under this award, or entity that receives a procurement contract or subcontract with any funds under this award, may require any employee or contractor to sign an internal confidentiality agreement or statement that prohibits or otherwise restricts, or purports to prohibit or restrict, the reporting (in accordance with law) of waste, fraud, or abuse to an investigative or law enforcement representative of a federal department or agency authorized to receive such information. The foregoing is not intended, and shall not be understood by the agency making this award, to contravene requirements applicable to Standard Form 312 (which relates to classified information), Form 4414 (which relates to sensitive compartmented information), or any other form issued by a federal department or agency governing the nondisclosure of classified information. 1. In accepting this award, the recipient-- a. represents that it neither requires nor has required internal confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and b. certifies that, if it learns or is notified that it is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any further obligations of award funds, will provide prompt written notification to the federal agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only if expressly authorized to do so by that agency. 2. If the recipient does or is authorized under this award to make subawards ("subgrants"), procurement contracts, or both-- a. it represents that-- (1) it has determined that no other entity that the recipient's application proposes may or will receive award funds (whether through a subaward ("subgrant"), procurement contract, or subcontract under a procurement contract) either requires or has required internal confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and (2) it has made appropriate inquiry, or otherwise has an adequate factual basis, to support this representation; and b. it certifies that, if it learns or is notified that any subrecipient, contractor, or subcontractor entity that receives funds under this award is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any further obligations of award funds to or by that entity, will provide prompt written notification to the federal agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only if expressly authorized to do so by that agency. 22 Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S. Code were editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled "Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code. Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements. 23 https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr12/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that would exceed $250,000 The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently, $250,000). This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a procurement "contract" (and therefore does not consider a subaward). The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract (if contract would exceed $250,000)), and are incorporated by reference here. 24 Requirements pertaining to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons (including reporting requirements and OJP authority to terminate award) The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements (including requirements to report allegations) pertaining to prohibited conduct related to the trafficking of persons, whether on the part of recipients, subrecipients ("subgrantees"), or individuals defined (for purposes of this condition) as "employees" of the recipient or of any subrecipient. The details of the recipient's obligations related to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/ProhibitedConduct-Trafficking.htm (Award condition: Prohibited conduct by recipients and subrecipients related to trafficking in persons (including reporting requirements and OJP authority to terminate award)), and are incorporated by reference here. 25 Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient receives any other award of federal funds during the period of performance for this award, the recipient promptly must determine whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been, are being, or are to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for which funds are provided under this award. If so, the recipient must promptly notify the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so requested by the DOJ awarding agency, must seek a budget-modification or change-of-project-scope Grant Award Modification (GAM) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of funding. 26 Reporting potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and similar misconduct The recipient, and any subrecipients ("subgrantees") at any tier, must promptly refer to the DOJ Office of the Inspector General (OIG) any credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent, subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, or other person has, in connection with funds under this award-- (1) submitted a claim that violates the False Claims Act; or (2) committed a criminal or civil violation of laws pertaining to fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, gratuity, or similar misconduct. Potential fraud, waste, abuse, or misconduct involving or relating to funds under this award should be reported to the OIG by--(1) online submission accessible via the OIG webpage at https://oig.justice.gov/hotline/contact- grants.htm (select "Submit Report Online"); (2) mail directed to: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General, Investigations Division, ATTN: Grantee Reporting, 950 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20530; and/or (3) by facsimile directed to the DOJ OIG Investigations Division (Attn: Grantee Reporting) at (202) 616-9881 (fax).

This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement "contract"). The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here. 28 Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award Management (SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information in SAM. The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first-tier subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not acquire and provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration. The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for Award Management (SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by reference here. This condition does not apply to an award to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name). 29 Restrictions on "lobbying" In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.) Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations. Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP. 30 The recipient agrees to submit a final report at the end of this award documenting all relevant project activities during the entire period of support under this award. This report will include detailed information about the project(s) funded, including, but not limited to, information about how the funds were actually used for each purpose area, data to support statements of progress, and data concerning individual results and outcomes of funded projects reflecting project successes and impacts. The final report is due no later than 120 days following https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr14/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award the close of this award period or the expiration of any extension periods. This report will be submitted to the Office of Justice Programs, on-line through the Internet at https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/ 31 Justification of consultant rate Approval of this award does not indicate approval of any consultant rate in excess of $650 per day. A detailed justification must be submitted to and approved by the OJP program office prior to obligation or expenditure of such funds. 32 Cooperating with OJP Monitoring The recipient agrees to cooperate with OJP monitoring of this award pursuant to OJP's guidelines, protocols, and procedures, and to cooperate with OJP (including the grant manager for this award and the Office of Chief Financial Officer (OCFO)) requests related to such monitoring, including requests related to desk reviews and/or site visits. The recipient agrees to provide to OJP all documentation necessary for OJP to complete its monitoring tasks, including documentation related to any subawards made under this award. Further, the recipient agrees to abide by reasonable deadlines set by OJP for providing the requested documents. Failure to cooperate with OJP's monitoring activities may result in actions that affect the recipient's DOJ awards, including, but not limited to: withholdings and/or other restrictions on the recipient's access to award funds; referral to the DOJ OIG for audit review; designation of the recipient as a DOJ High Risk grantee; or termination of an award(s). 33 Limit on use of grant funds for grantees' employees' salaries With respect to this award, federal funds may not be used to pay cash compensation (salary plus bonuses) to any employee of the award recipient at a rate that exceeds 110% of the maximum annual salary payable to a member of the federal government's Senior Executive Service (SES) at an agency with a Certified SES Performance Appraisal System for that year. (An award recipient may compensate an employee at a higher rate, provided the amount in excess of this compensation limitation is paid with non-federal funds.) This limitation on compensation rates allowable under this award may be waived on an individual basis at the discretion of the OJP official indicated in the program announcement under which this award is made. 34 FFATA reporting: Subawards and executive compensation The recipient must comply with applicable requirements to report first-tier subawards ("subgrants") of $30,000 or more and, in certain circumstances, to report the names and total compensation of the five most highly compensated executives of the recipient and first-tier subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees") of award funds. The details of recipient obligations, which derive from the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA), are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/FFATA.htm (Award condition: Reporting Subawards and Executive Compensation), and are incorporated by reference here. This condition, including its reporting requirement, does not apply to-- (1) an award of less than $30,000, or (2) an award made to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non- profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name). https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr15/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award 35 The Project Director and/or any other key program personnel designated in the application shall be replaced only for compelling reasons. Successors to key personnel must be approved by OJP, and such approval is contingent upon submission of appropriate information, including, but not limited to, a resume. Changes in program personnel, other than key personnel, require only notification to OJP and submission of resumes, unless otherwise designated in the award document. 36 Statement of Federal Involvement: Due to the substantial Federal involvement contemplated in completion of this project, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has elected to enter into a cooperative agreement rather than a grant. This decision is based on OJP and OJJDP's ongoing responsibility to assist and coordinate projects that relate to the funded activities. OJP and OJJDP will provide input and re-direction to the project, as needed, in consultation with the recipient, and will actively monitor the project by methods including, but not limited to, ongoing contact with the recipient. In meeting programmatic responsibilities, OJP, OJJDP, and the recipient will be guided by the following principles: responsibility for the day-to-day operations of this project rests with the recipient in implementation of the recipient's approved proposal, the recipient's approved budget, and the terms and conditions specified in this award. Responsibility for general oversight and redirection of the project, if necessary, rests with OJJDP. In addition to its programmatic reporting requirements, the recipient agrees to provide necessary information as requested by OJP and OJJDP. Information requests may include, but are not limited to, specific submissions related to: performance, including measurement of project outputs/outcomes; meeting performance specifications; developmental decision points; changes in project scope or personnel; budget modifications; and/or coordination of related projects. 37 Within 45 calendar days after the end of any conference, meeting, retreat, seminar, symposium, training activity, or similar event funded under this award, and the total cost of which exceeds $20,000 in award funds, the recipient must provide the program manager with the following information and itemized costs: 1) name of event; 2) event dates; 3) location of event; 4) number of federal attendees; 5) number of non-federal attendees; 6) costs of event space, including rooms for break-out sessions; 7) costs of audio visual services; 8) other equipment costs (e.g., computer fees, telephone fees); 9) costs of printing and distribution; 10) costs of meals provided during the event; 11) costs of refreshments provided during the event; 12) costs of event planner; 13) costs of event facilitators; and 14) any other costs associated with the event.

It is the responsibility of the recipient (and of each subrecipient (at any tier), if applicable) to ensure that the provisions of this condition are included in any subaward (at any tier) under this award. The recipient has the responsibility to obtain from subrecipients, contractors, and subcontractors (if any) all rights and data necessary to fulfill the recipient's obligations to the Government under this award. If a proposed subrecipient, contractor, or subcontractor refuses to accept terms affording the Government such rights, the recipient shall promptly bring such refusal to the attention of the OJP program manager for the award and not proceed with the agreement in question without further authorization from the OJP program office. 40 OJJDP - Web Site Notice of Federal Funding and Disclaimer Any Web site that is funded in whole or in part under this award must include the following statement on the home page, on all major entry pages (i.e., pages (exclusive of documents) whose primary purpose is to navigate the user to interior content), and on any pages from which a visitor may access or use a Web-based service, including any pages that provide results or outputs from the service: "This Web site is funded in whole or in part through a grant from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice.

Maureen Henneberg Deputy Assistant Attorney General Office for Civil Rights Notice for All Recipients The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has been delegated the responsibility for ensuring that recipients of federal financial assistance from the https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr1/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award OJP, the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) are not engaged in discrimination prohibited by law. Several federal civil rights laws, such as Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients of federal financial assistance to give assurances that they will comply with those laws. Taken together, these civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal financial assistance from DOJ from discriminating in services and employment because of race, color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, and, for grants authorized under the Violence Against Women Act, sexual orientation and gender identity. Recipients are also prohibited from discriminating in services because of age. For a complete review of these civil rights laws and nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalOverview/CivilRightsRequirements.htm. Under the delegation of authority, the OCR investigates allegations of discrimination against recipients from individuals, entities, or groups. In addition, the OCR conducts limited compliance reviews and audits based on regulatory criteria. These reviews and audits permit the OCR to evaluate whether recipients of financial assistance from the Department are providing services in a nondiscriminatory manner to their service population or have employment practices that meet equal-opportunity standards. If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act or the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal justice system, there are two additional obligations that may apply in connection with the awards: (1) complying with the regulation relating to Equal Employment Opportunity Programs (EEOPs); and (2) submitting findings of discrimination to OCR. For additional information regarding the EEOP requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42, subpart E, and for additional information regarding requirements when there is an adverse finding, see 28 C.F.R. §§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5). The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that are associated with DOJ grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in fulfilling your organization's civil rights or nondiscrimination responsibilities as a recipient of federal financial assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the OCR at askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.

Terms And Conditions 1 Compliance with DOJ regulations pertaining to civil rights and nondiscrimination - 28 C.F.R. Part 38 The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements of 28 C.F.R. Part 38 (as may be applicable from time to time), specifically including any applicable requirements regarding written notice to program beneficiaries and prospective program beneficiaries. Currently, among other things, 28 C.F.R. Part 38 includes rules that prohibit specific forms of discrimination on the basis of religion, a religious belief, a refusal to hold a religious belief, or refusal to attend or participate in a religious practice. Part 38, currently, also sets out rules and requirements that pertain to recipient and subrecipient ("subgrantee") organizations that engage in or conduct explicitly religious activities, as well as rules and requirements that pertain to recipients and subrecipients that are faith-based or religious organizations. The text of 28 C.F.R. Part 38 is available via the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (currently accessible at https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/ECFR?page=browse), by browsing to Title 28-Judicial Administration, Chapter 1, Part 38, under e-CFR "current" data. 2 Compliance with DOJ regulations pertaining to civil rights and nondiscrimination - 28 C.F.R. Part 42 The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements of 28 C.F.R. Part 42, specifically including any applicable requirements in Subpart E of 28 C.F.R. Part 42 that relate to an equal employment opportunity program. 3 Applicability of Part 200 Uniform Requirements The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements in 2 C.F.R. Part 200, as adopted and supplemented by DOJ in 2 C.F.R. Part 2800 (together, the "Part 200 Uniform Requirements") apply to this FY 2022 award from OJP. The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If this FY 2022 award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award number (e.g., funds awarded during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform Requirements apply with respect to all funds under that award number (regardless of the award date, and regardless of whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental award) that are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award. For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate to OJP awards and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at https://ojp.gov/funding/Part200UniformRequirements.htm. Record retention and access: Records pertinent to the award that the recipient (and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier) must retain -- typically for a period of 3 years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report (SF 425), unless a different retention period applies -- and to which the recipient (and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier) must provide access, include performance measurement information, in addition to the financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and other pertinent records indicated https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr6/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award at 2 C.F.R. 200.334. In the event that an award-related question arises from documents or other materials prepared or distributed by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way from, the provisions of the Part 200 Uniform Requirements, the recipient is to contact OJP promptly for clarification. 4 Effect of failure to address audit issues The recipient understands and agrees that the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) may withhold award funds, or may impose other related requirements, if (as determined by the DOJ awarding agency) the recipient does not satisfactorily and promptly address outstanding issues from audits required by the Part 200 Uniform Requirements (or by the terms of this award), or other outstanding issues that arise in connection with audits, investigations, or reviews of DOJ awards. 5 Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false statements The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award. Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award. Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions" (ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices- AwardReqts.htm), and incorporated by reference into the award. By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient official accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of performance. Failure to comply with one or more award requirements -- whether a condition set out in full below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or an assurance or certification related to conduct during the award period -- may result in OJP taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award. Among other things, the OJP may withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, also may take other legal action as appropriate. Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to this award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273), and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812). Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable by its terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it the maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this award. 6 Employment eligibility verification for hiring under the award 1. The recipient (and any subrecipient at any tier) must-- A. Ensure that, as part of the hiring process for any position within the United States that is or will be funded (in whole or in part) with award funds, the recipient (or any subrecipient) properly verifies the employment eligibility of the individual who is being hired, consistent with the provisions of 8 U.S.C. 1324a(a)(1). https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr7/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award B.

The foregoing is not intended, and shall not be understood by the agency making this award, to contravene requirements applicable to Standard Form 312 (which relates to classified information), Form 4414 (which relates to sensitive compartmented information), or any other form issued by a federal department or agency governing the nondisclosure of classified information. 1. In accepting this award, the recipient-- a. represents that it neither requires nor has required internal confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and b. certifies that, if it learns or is notified that it is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any further obligations of award funds, will provide prompt written notification to the federal agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only if expressly authorized to do so by that agency. 2. If the recipient does or is authorized under this award to make subawards ("subgrants"), procurement contracts, or both-- a. it represents that-- (1) it has determined that no other entity that the recipient's application proposes may or will receive award funds (whether through a subaward ("subgrant"), procurement contract, or subcontract under a procurement contract) either requires or has required internal confidentiality agreements or statements from employees or contractors that currently prohibit or otherwise currently restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict) employees or contractors from reporting waste, fraud, or abuse as described above; and (2) it has made appropriate inquiry, or otherwise has an adequate factual basis, to support this representation; and b. it certifies that, if it learns or is notified that any subrecipient, contractor, or subcontractor entity that receives funds under this award is or has been requiring its employees or contractors to execute agreements or statements that prohibit or otherwise restrict (or purport to prohibit or restrict), reporting of waste, fraud, or abuse as described above, it will immediately stop any further obligations of award funds to or by that entity, will provide prompt written notification to the federal agency making this award, and will resume (or permit resumption of) such obligations only if expressly authorized to do so by that agency. 22 Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U.S. Code were editorially reclassified (that is, moved and renumbered) to a new Title 34, entitled "Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a number of statutory provisions pertinent to OJP awards (that is, OJP grants and cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code. Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements. 23 https://justgrants.usdoj.gov/prweb/PRAuth/app/JGITS_/3yZ6Bxxi_lpDExTOT4XnAjzjAXmVNevW*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40baseclass.pzPr12/20 12/7/22, 9:22 AMActive Funded Award Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that would exceed $250,000 The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements to obtain specific advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in any procurement contract that would exceed the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (currently, $250,000). This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a procurement "contract" (and therefore does not consider a subaward). The details of the requirement for advance approval to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract under an OJP award are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/NoncompetitiveProcurement.htm (Award condition: Specific post-award approval required to use a noncompetitive approach in a procurement contract (if contract would exceed $250,000)), and are incorporated by reference here. 24 Requirements pertaining to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons (including reporting requirements and OJP authority to terminate award) The recipient, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must comply with all applicable requirements (including requirements to report allegations) pertaining to prohibited conduct related to the trafficking of persons, whether on the part of recipients, subrecipients ("subgrantees"), or individuals defined (for purposes of this condition) as "employees" of the recipient or of any subrecipient. The details of the recipient's obligations related to prohibited conduct related to trafficking in persons are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/ProhibitedConduct-Trafficking.htm (Award condition: Prohibited conduct by recipients and subrecipients related to trafficking in persons (including reporting requirements and OJP authority to terminate award)), and are incorporated by reference here. 25 Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient receives any other award of federal funds during the period of performance for this award, the recipient promptly must determine whether funds from any of those other federal awards have been, are being, or are to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the identical cost items for which funds are provided under this award. If so, the recipient must promptly notify the DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so requested by the DOJ awarding agency, must seek a budget-modification or change-of-project-scope Grant Award Modification (GAM) to eliminate any inappropriate duplication of funding. 26 Reporting potential fraud, waste, and abuse, and similar misconduct The recipient, and any subrecipients ("subgrantees") at any tier, must promptly refer to the DOJ Office of the Inspector General (OIG) any credible evidence that a principal, employee, agent, subrecipient, contractor, subcontractor, or other person has, in connection with funds under this award-- (1) submitted a claim that violates the False Claims Act; or (2) committed a criminal or civil violation of laws pertaining to fraud, conflict of interest, bribery, gratuity, or similar misconduct. Potential fraud, waste, abuse, or misconduct involving or relating to funds under this award should be reported to the OIG by--(1) online submission accessible via the OIG webpage at https://oig.justice.gov/hotline/contact- grants.htm (select "Submit Report Online"); (2) mail directed to: U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the Inspector General, Investigations Division, ATTN: Grantee Reporting, 950 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20530; and/or (3) by facsimile directed to the DOJ OIG Investigations Division (Attn: Grantee Reporting) at (202) 616-9881 (fax).

This condition applies to agreements that -- for purposes of federal grants administrative requirements -- OJP considers a "subaward" (and therefore does not consider a procurement "contract"). The details of the requirement for authorization of any subaward are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SubawardAuthorization.htm (Award condition: All subawards ("subgrants") must have specific federal authorization), and are incorporated by reference here. 28 Requirements related to System for Award Management and Universal Identifier Requirements The recipient must comply with applicable requirements regarding the System for Award Management (SAM), currently accessible at https://www.sam.gov/. This includes applicable requirements regarding registration with SAM, as well as maintaining the currency of information in SAM. The recipient also must comply with applicable restrictions on subawards ("subgrants") to first-tier subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees"), including restrictions on subawards to entities that do not acquire and provide (to the recipient) the unique entity identifier required for SAM registration. The details of the recipient's obligations related to SAM and to unique entity identifiers are posted on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/SAM.htm (Award condition: System for Award Management (SAM) and Universal Identifier Requirements), and are incorporated by reference here. This condition does not apply to an award to an individual who received the award as a natural person (i.e., unrelated to any business or non-profit organization that he or she may own or operate in his or her name). 29 Restrictions on "lobbying" In general, as a matter of federal law, federal funds awarded by OJP may not be used by the recipient, or any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, either directly or indirectly, to support or oppose the enactment, repeal, modification, or adoption of any law, regulation, or policy, at any level of government. See 18 U.S.C. 1913. (There may be exceptions if an applicable federal statute specifically authorizes certain activities that otherwise would be barred by law.) Another federal law generally prohibits federal funds awarded by OJP from being used by the recipient, or any subrecipient at any tier, to pay any person to influence (or attempt to influence) a federal agency, a Member of Congress, or Congress (or an official or employee of any of them) with respect to the awarding of a federal grant or cooperative agreement, subgrant, contract, subcontract, or loan, or with respect to actions such as renewing, extending, or modifying any such award. See 31 U.S.C. 1352. Certain exceptions to this law apply, including an exception that applies to Indian tribes and tribal organizations. Should any question arise as to whether a particular use of federal funds by a recipient (or subrecipient) would or might fall within the scope of these prohibitions, the recipient is to contact OJP for guidance, and may not proceed without the express prior written approval of OJP. 30 The recipient agrees to submit a final report at the end of this award documenting all relevant project activities during the entire period of support under this award. This report will include detailed information about the project(s) funded, including, but not limited to, information about how the funds were actually used for each purpose area, data to support statements of progress, and data concerning individual results and outcomes of funded projects reflecting project successes and impacts.

A detailed justification must be submitted to and approved by the OJP program office prior to obligation or expenditure of such funds. 32 Cooperating with OJP Monitoring The recipient agrees to cooperate with OJP monitoring of this award pursuant to OJP's guidelines, protocols, and procedures, and to cooperate with OJP (including the grant manager for this award and the Office of Chief Financial Officer (OCFO)) requests related to such monitoring, including requests related to desk reviews and/or site visits. The recipient agrees to provide to OJP all documentation necessary for OJP to complete its monitoring tasks, including documentation related to any subawards made under this award. Further, the recipient agrees to abide by reasonable deadlines set by OJP for providing the requested documents. Failure to cooperate with OJP's monitoring activities may result in actions that affect the recipient's DOJ awards, including, but not limited to: withholdings and/or other restrictions on the recipient's access to award funds; referral to the DOJ OIG for audit review; designation of the recipient as a DOJ High Risk grantee; or termination of an award(s). 33 Limit on use of grant funds for grantees' employees' salaries With respect to this award, federal funds may not be used to pay cash compensation (salary plus bonuses) to any employee of the award recipient at a rate that exceeds 110% of the maximum annual salary payable to a member of the federal government's Senior Executive Service (SES) at an agency with a Certified SES Performance Appraisal System for that year. (An award recipient may compensate an employee at a higher rate, provided the amount in excess of this compensation limitation is paid with non-federal funds.) This limitation on compensation rates allowable under this award may be waived on an individual basis at the discretion of the OJP official indicated in the program announcement under which this award is made. 34 FFATA reporting: Subawards and executive compensation The recipient must comply with applicable requirements to report first-tier subawards ("subgrants") of $30,000 or more and, in certain circumstances, to report the names and total compensation of the five most highly compensated executives of the recipient and first-tier subrecipients (first-tier "subgrantees") of award funds.

Successors to key personnel must be approved by OJP, and such approval is contingent upon submission of appropriate information, including, but not limited to, a resume. Changes in program personnel, other than key personnel, require only notification to OJP and submission of resumes, unless otherwise designated in the award document. 36 Statement of Federal Involvement: Due to the substantial Federal involvement contemplated in completion of this project, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has elected to enter into a cooperative agreement rather than a grant. This decision is based on OJP and OJJDP's ongoing responsibility to assist and coordinate projects that relate to the funded activities. OJP and OJJDP will provide input and re-direction to the project, as needed, in consultation with the recipient, and will actively monitor the project by methods including, but not limited to, ongoing contact with the recipient. In meeting programmatic responsibilities, OJP, OJJDP, and the recipient will be guided by the following principles: responsibility for the day-to-day operations of this project rests with the recipient in implementation of the recipient's approved proposal, the recipient's approved budget, and the terms and conditions specified in this award. Responsibility for general oversight and redirection of the project, if necessary, rests with OJJDP. In addition to its programmatic reporting requirements, the recipient agrees to provide necessary information as requested by OJP and OJJDP. Information requests may include, but are not limited to, specific submissions related to: performance, including measurement of project outputs/outcomes; meeting performance specifications; developmental decision points; changes in project scope or personnel; budget modifications; and/or coordination of related projects. 37 Within 45 calendar days after the end of any conference, meeting, retreat, seminar, symposium, training activity, or similar event funded under this award, and the total cost of which exceeds $20,000 in award funds, the recipient must provide the program manager with the following information and itemized costs: 1) name of event; 2) event dates; 3) location of event; 4) number of federal attendees; 5) number of non-federal attendees; 6) costs of event space, including rooms for break-out sessions; 7) costs of audio visual services; 8) other equipment costs (e.g., computer fees, telephone fees); 9) costs of printing and distribution; 10) costs of meals provided during the event; 11) costs of refreshments provided during the event; 12) costs of event planner; 13) costs of event facilitators; and 14) any other costs associated with the event.

The recipient has the responsibility to obtain from subrecipients, contractors, and subcontractors (if any) all rights and data necessary to fulfill the recipient's obligations to the Government under this award. If a proposed subrecipient, contractor, or subcontractor refuses to accept terms affording the Government such rights, the recipient shall promptly bring such refusal to the attention of the OJP program manager for the award and not proceed with the agreement in question without further authorization from the OJP program office. 40 OJJDP - Web Site Notice of Federal Funding and Disclaimer Any Web site that is funded in whole or in part under this award must include the following statement on the home page, on all major entry pages (i.e., pages (exclusive of documents) whose primary purpose is to navigate the user to interior content), and on any pages from which a visitor may access or use a Web-based service, including any pages that provide results or outputs from the service: "This Web site is funded in whole or in part through a grant from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice.

SUMMARY: Aaron Materials Inc., Aransas Pass, Texas will provide Corpus Christi Water (CCW) with backfill materials for water and wastewater pipe repairs. Backfill materials are used to cushion the pipe from external forces, bring the excavation to grade, and provide necessary support for asphalt repairs. These materials are required to maintain and properly repair the BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: CCW maintains over 1,600 miles of water mains, 35,000 valves,1,400 miles of wastewater mains, and 20,000 manholes. In FY2023, the department completed more than 2,500 work orders related to the repair or replacement of water and wastewater infrastructure. This work resulted in 2,215 requests for backfill in streets and easements. The contract will provide the required materials to provide proper bedding for pipes, prevent future damage due to soil movement, and stabilize soil to reinforce asphalt repairs. Additionally, the materials are critical for the longevity of street and asphalt repairs. The use of these materials follows best practices and ensures a solid base and uniform support for the infrastructure and roadways. Aaron Materials Inc. held the previous contract and provided a timely, reliable service. The increased contract value is a result of the increased quantities of each item.

ALTERNATIVES: The alternative to not awarding this supply agreement for materials would require CCW to purchase backfill materials on an as needed basis for individual repairs, which would result in delayed repairs and increased costs. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact for FY 2024 is $423,410.07 in the Water Fund. FUNDING DETAIL: Fund: 4010 Water Organization/Activity: 31520 Treated Water Delivery System Department: 45 Water Project # (CIP Only): N/A Account: 520130 Maint & repairs RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this motion to authorize the execution of a three-year supply agreement with Aaron Materials, Inc. as presented.

N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant Pre-Sedimentation Basin Dredging CAPTION: Motion awarding a construction contract to GFL Environmental Services USA, Inc., of Raleigh, North Carolina to dredge, dewater, haul, and dispose of settled sediments and water treatment plant residuals from the pre-sedimentation basin at the O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant in an amount of $8,757,565.00 and authorize a professional services contract amendment No. 6 to Hazen and Sawyer, Corpus Christi, Texas, to provide construction phase services in an amount of $164,032.00, for a total contract value not to exceed $1,147,012.00, located in Council District 1, with funding available from the Water CIP Fund. SUMMARY: This motion approves a construction contract with GFL Environmental Services USA, Inc., of Raleigh, North Carolina to dredge, dewater, haul and dispose of approximately 28,000 - 44,000 dry tons (DT) of settled sediments and water treatment plant residuals, as well as remove, haul, and dispose of cattails and other aquatic vegetation from the pre-sedimentation basin at the O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant (ONSWTP) and a professional services contract amendment No. 6 to provide construction phase services. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The pre-sedimentation basin located at ONSWTP serves as a preliminary settling location for raw water suspended solids and is also used for emergency water storage. Built in 1988, the pre- sedimentation basin has been dredged twice since construction, with the most recent attempt in 2021-2022 resulting in partial solids removal. Results from a 2022 survey determined over 40% of the basins volume consists of solids from water treatment plant residuals and settled sediments. In addition to limiting water storage capacity in the basin, the accumulated solids also hinder the usage of critical basin equipment during emergency events. Dredging the pre sedimentation basin is required to maximize emergency water storage capacity, provide optimal pretreatment solids settling, and allow for operational flexibility at ONSWTP. This project consists of dredging, dewatering, hauling and disposing of 28,000-44,000 DT of settled sediments and water treatment plant residuals, as well as removal, hauling and disposal of cattails and other vegetation from the pre-sedimentation basin. Removed material will be transported to the Cefe Valenzuela landfill. The Contractor will be responsible for conducting and providing documentation of trip tickets and paint filter tests (as applicable), moisture content test for daily composite samples, and all other required regulatory tests for each truckload sent to the landfill. PROJECT TIMELINE: Projected Schedule reflects City Council award in March 2024 with anticipated construction completion by September 2025. COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS: The Contracts and Procurement Department issued a new Request for Bids (RFB 5204) in November 2023. The solicitation contained two base bids and required the contractor to select a disposal method. On November 29, 2023, the City received four bids. City analyzed the bids in accordance with the contract documents and determined that GFL Environmental Services USA, Inc., is the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. An administrative hearing was held on January 04, 2024, BID SUMMARY Base Bid 1 Base Bid 2 Contractor (Disposal to Cefe (Disposal by Land Valenzuela Landfill) Application) GFL Environmental $8,757,565.00 No Bid Services USA American Process Group $10,379,783.00 No Bid Renda Environmental $12,500,000.00 $11,170,000.00 Denali Water Solutions $22,475,280.00 $18,912,000.00 Probable Construction $15,090,000.00 $15,090,000.00 Cost GFL Environmental Services USA dba Terrapure Environmental has previously worked for the City on ONSWTP Dredging of Lagoons #5 and #6 project from 2019 to 2020. GFL Environmental Services USA, Inc. has significant experience working on dredging projects and serves a wide range of industries including municipalities. ALTERNATIVES: City Council could choose not to award the construction contract to the low bidder, GFL Environmental Services USA, Inc. This would delay needed improvements to the ONSWTP.

SUMMARY: On February 29, 2024, AEP Texas filed a request to change the rates it charges for the use of its transmission and distribution lines and related service with the Texas PUC. Once a rate case is filed, City must act within 35 days to adopt a Resolution to Suspend the Effective Date to allow more time to review the filing. This resolution will also authorize the City to intervene and hire consultants. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Transmission and Distribution (T&D) costs are still provided via regulated monopolies. Electric companies use City rights-of-way to distribute electricity; therefore, Cities are the traditional check on unlimited power of monopoly utilities to pass unlimited T&D costs to ratepayers in their jurisdictions. Cities intervene in rate cases to make utilities prove their claimed expenses are properly chargeable to ratepayers & limit their rates of return. AEP Texas Inc filed an application on February 29, 2024, with cities retaining original jurisdiction seeking to increase system-wide distribution rates by $110.4 million per year (an increase of 13.1%) and increase system-wide transmission rates by $63.1 million (an increase of 9.29%). According to AEP Texas, the impact of this approval on an average residential customer would be an increase of about $4.59 per month. The law provides that a rate request made by an electric utility cannot become effective until at least 35 days following the filing of the application to change rates. The law permits the City to C:\\Users\\ufc-prod\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\BCL Technologies\\easyPDF 8\\@BCL@98140B86\\@BCL@98140B86.docx suspend the rate change for 90 days after the date the rate change would otherwise be effective.

Staff Recommends Approval City Council March 19, 2023 AGENDA MEMORANDUM First Reading for the City Council Meeting of March 19, 2024 Second Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting of March 26, 2024 DATE: March 19, 2024 TO: Peter Zanoni, City Manager FROM: Ernesto De La Garza, P.E., Director of Public Works ernestod2@cctexas.com (361) 826-1677 ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 14, ARTICLE V OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES CAPTION: Ordinance amending Section 14-544, 14-552 and 14-556 of the Corpus Christi Code to update certain provisions including Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) compliance requirements and nonstructural fill on North Beach; providing for a penalty; and publication. SUMMARY: The purpose of this item is to revise the adopted Flood Hazard Prevention Code according to a recent Community Rating System (CRS) evaluation that was completed by FEMA. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance must be purchased by property owners asking for any Federal financial assistance for construction or acquisition of buildings in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs). This financial assistance includes certain federally guaranteed mortgages and direct loans, federal disaster relief loans and grants, as well as other similarly described assistance from FEMA and other agencies. The City of Corpus Christi must adopt floodplain management measures, such as a floodplain management ordinance, that meet or exceed the minimum National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) requirements to avoid suspension from the NFIP. This ordinance update will keep the City in compliance with NFIP requirements and increase our CRS rating, which impacts all flood insurance policy holders. ALTERNATIVES: FEMA could keep our CRS rating the same if updates are not adopted. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A Funding Detail: Fund: N/A Organization/Activity: N/A Mission Element: N/A Project # (CIP Only): N/A Account: N/A Amount: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the amendment. LIST OF SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: Ordinance Council Presentation Ordinance amending Section 14-544, 14-552 and 14-556 of the Corpus Christi Code to update certain provisions to comply with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requirements; providing for a penalty; and publication. WHEREAS, by adopting Prevention Code the City will minimize public and private losses due to changing flood conditions in areas of special flood hazard and improve the public health, safety and welfare of its citizens. WHEREAS, the City is a participant in a voluntary program of the National Flood Insurance Program called the Community Rating System. This program awards points for going above and beyond the minimum standards of a participating community. WHEREAS, adopting higher flood hazard prevention standards provides additional points to the City that can help reduce flood insurance premiums for flood insurance policies in Special Flood Hazard Areas in the City. THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS, THAT: SECTION 1. The Corpus Christi Code, Section 14-544 is amended by adding the following language that is underlined (added) and deleting the language that is stricken (deleted) as delineated below: Sec. 14-544. - Variance procedures. (a) The construction trade advisory & appeals board hears and renders judgment on requests for variances from the requirements of this article code. (b) The construction trade advisory & appeals board hears and renders judgment on an appeal only when it is alleged there is an error in any requirement, decision, or determination made by the floodplain administrator in the enforcement or administration of this article code. (c) Any person or persons aggrieved by the decision of the construction trade advisory & appeals board may appeal such decision to a court of competent jurisdiction. (d) The floodplain administrator maintains a record of all actions involving an appeal and shall report variances to the Federal Emergency Management Agency upon request. (e) Variances may be issued for the reconstruction, rehabilitation, or restoration of structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the state inventory of historic places, without regard to the procedures set forth in the remainder of this article code. (f) Variances may be issued for new construction and substantial improvements to be erected on a lot of one-half acre or less in size contiguous to and surrounded by lots with existing structures constructed below the base flood level, providing the relevant factors in subsection 14-541(1) have been fully considered. As the lot size increases beyond the one-half acre, the technical justification required for issuing the variance increases. 1 (g) Upon consideration of the factors noted above and the intent of this division, the appeal board may attach such conditions to the granting of variances as it deems necessary to further the purpose and objectives of this chapter, section 14-502. (h) Variances may not be issued within any designated floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. (i) Variances may be issued for the repair or rehabilitation of historic structures upon a continued designation as a historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character of design of the structure. (j) Prerequisites for granting variances: (1) Variances may only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief. (2) Variances may only be issued upon: a. Showing a good and sufficient cause; b. A determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the applicant; c. A determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public, or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances. (3) Any applicant, to whom a variance is granted, may be given written notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with the lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation, and that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced lowest floor elevation. (k) Variances may be issued for new construction and substantial improvements and for other development necessary for the conduct of a functionally dependent use provided that: (1) The criteria outlined in subsections 14-534 544(a) through (i) are met; and (2) The structure or other development is protected by methods that minimize flood damages during the base flood and create no additional threats to public safety. 2 Sec. 14-552. - Specific standards.

Substantial damage and substantial improvement must have the lowest floor (including basement), elevated to at or above the base flood elevation or together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, be designed so that below the base flood level the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water and with structural components having the capability of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy. A registered professional engineer or architect shall develop and/or review structural design, specifications and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice as outlined in this subsection. A record of such certification which includes the specific elevation (in relation to mean sea level) to which such structures are floodproofed shall be maintained by the floodplain administrator. (3) Enclosures. New construction and substantial improvements, with fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor that are usable solely for parking of vehicles, building access, or storage in an area other than a basement and which are subject to flooding must be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit of floodwaters.

(4) A registered professional engineer or architect shall develop or review the structural design, specifications and plans for the construction, and shall certify that the design and methods of construction to be used are in accordance with accepted standards of practice for meeting the provisions of subsections (3)a. and (3)b. of this section. (5) All new construction and substantial improvements must have the space below the lowest floor either free of obstruction or constructed with non-supporting breakaway walls, open wood lattice-work, or insect screening intended to collapse under wind and water loads without causing collapse, displacement, or other structural damage to the elevated portion of the building or supporting foundation system. (6) For the purpose of this section, a breakaway wall shall have a design safe loading resistance of not less than ten (10), and not more than twenty (20) pounds per square foot. 5 (7) Use of breakaway walls, which exceed a design safe loading resistance of twenty (20) pounds per square foot (either by design or when so required by local or state codes), may be permitted only if a registered professional engineer or architect certifies that the designs proposed meet the following conditions: a. Breakaway wall collapse must result from a water load less than that which would occur during the base flood; and b. The elevated portion of the building and supporting foundation system may not be subject to collapse, displacement, or other structural damage due to the effects of wind and water loads acting simultaneously on all building components (structural and nonstructural). 1. Water loading values used shall be those associated with the base flood. 2. Wind loading values used shall be those required by applicable state or local building standards.

(12) Manufactured homes placed or substantially improved on other sites in an existing manufactured home park or subdivision within zones V1-30, V, and VE on the city's FIRM meet the requirements of subsection 14-542(4) of this Code. (13) Recreational vehicles, which are placed on sites within zones V1-30, V, and VE on the city's FIRM, must either: a. Be on the site for fewer than one hundred eighty (180) consecutive days, b. Be fully licensed and ready for highway use, or c. Meet the requirements in section 14-522 of this article code and subsections (b)(1) through (b)(10) of this section. (14) A recreational vehicle is ready for highway use if it is on its wheels or jacking system, is attached to the site only by quick-disconnect type utilities and security devices, and has no permanently attached additions. (15) For properties within the boundaries of the North Beach Development Plan, minor grading and the placement of minor quantities of nonstructural fill are allowed in Zone V only for landscaping, drainage under and around buildings, and support of parking slabs, pool decks, patios, walkways, and similar site 6 elements. Nonstructural fill shall not prevent the free passage of floodwater and waves beneath elevated buildings, divert floodwater or waves such that building damage is exacerbated, or lead to damaging flood and wave conditions on a site or adjacent sites. Nonstructural fill is assumed to wash away and shall not be used in foundation design calculations. a. Nonstructural fill placed on Zone V sites shall should be similar to natural soils in the area. In many coastal areas, natural soils are clean sand or sandy soils free of large quantities of clay, silt, and organic material. Nonstructural fill shall not contain large rocks and debris. The developer/owner shall submit test results providing the classification of the existing and proposed soil using the Unified Soil Classification System (American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard D2487) to prior to fill being placed on Zone V sites. b. Placement of up to 2 feet of nonstructural fill under or around an elevated building is allowed without engineering analysis or certification, provided basic site drainage principles are not violated and provided there are no other site-specific conditions or characteristics that would render the placement of the fill damaging to nearby buildings. Placement of fill under or around an elevated building that exceeds 2 feet or that does not abide by basic site drainage principles requires an engineering analysis showing no diversion of floodwaters or waves that building damage is exacerbated or lead to damaging flood and wave conditions on the site or adjacent sites. In cases where site development involves removing a layer of soil and fill is added to the site later, the fill thickness should be evaluated relative to the pre-removal soil elevation, not the removed soil elevation. c. Minimum slopes for building sites to facilitate drainage away from buildings shall be shallower than 1 unit vertical to 5 units horizontal (regardless of fill height). d. Parks, dDunes, and dune vegetation will be conserved and remain in their natural state and not elevated. Placement of nonstructural fill in parks, dunes, and dune vegetation is prohibited. SECTION 2.

SUMMARY: The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) provides funding to monitor Air Quality in Texas through the Rider 7 State and Local Air Quality Planning Program. TCEQ extended the existing Rider 7 grant for two additional years through FY24/25. TCEQ allocated $424,212 for FY2024/2025 to conduct air quality monitoring of the local airshed. Acceptance of the Air Quality st Monitoring Grant amendment extends the contract starting January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2025. The Air Quality grant was first accepted by the City in FY21 with an initial allocation of $281,250. Amendment 1 for FY22/23 allocated $417,658. Amendment 2 was a 90-day extension to allow the contracts to be finalized by TCEQ. Amendment 3 is the current amendment for $424,212 for FY24/25. In total grant funding allocated to Corpus Christi since the grant acceptance in is $1,123,120 in total funds provided for the monitoring of Air Quality through TCEQ. The City of Corpus Christi subcontracts with the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences at the Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi (TAMU-CC) for the completion of the grant. Air quality data is gathered, reviewed, analyzed, and reported to the Public Health District by TAMU-CC monthly. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The Rider 7 program began in 1995 to support local efforts to improve air quality and attaining Federal Ozone National Ambient Air Quality Standards. The goal of the Rider 7 program is to ensure airsheds in Texas do not enter status. Nonattainment occurs when an airshed does not meet the national primary or secondary ambient air quality standards as established by the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. Entering nonattainment can have significant regulatory and fiscal consequences for businesses within the airshed. Corpus Christi has maintained attainment status since 2004. The current National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) is set by the EPA at 70 parts per billion (ppb) averaged over 3 years. The current 3 year, rolling average is 64ppb. The City of Corpus Christi has contracted with TAMU-CC since 2021 to proactively monitor the local air shed for the Rider 7 program. The contract ensures that the following tasks for the Air Quality Monitoring (Rider 7) Program are achieved: 1. Create a Quality Assurance Project Plan for the monitoring of air quality 2. Operating 6 air monitoring sub-stations throughout the local airshed a. Holly Road, Aransas Pass, Odem, Annaville, TAMU-CC Campus, Health District 3. Creation of a new air monitoring station within zip code 78416 in a central location at the Public Health District 4. Implement a mobile air monitoring campaign in Corpus Christi 5. Conduct a detailed analysis of ambient air quality monitoring including: a. Evaluation of wind speeds, wind directions, relative humidity and temperature associated with background and high ozone events to determine the local conditions and sources associated with high/low ozone levels b. Determine trends associated with background and high ozone levels c. Determine 24-hour air mass back trajectories using NOAA HYSPLIT software to determine source regions likely to affect local area ozone. d. Perform weekday vs. weekend analysis to evaluate the potential effectiveness of reduced levels of local industrial and mobile source activity e. document, Guidance on the Use of Models and Other Analyses to Demonstrating Attainment of Air Quality goals for Ozone, PM2.5, and Regional Haze. f. Investigate ozone trends and determine the annual frequency of high ozone days g. Create ozone isopleth (Figure 3) by plotting ozone concentrations vs. NOx at all five sites and VOC (CAMS1024) concentration data to determine NOx vs. VOC limited scenarios in the Corpus Christi airshed. 6. Conduct a detailed analysis of soil biogenic NOX flux characterization a. A study that determines the gas exchange in living organisms (plants) 7. Complete and deliver quarterly progress reports and financial status reports to TCEQ 8. All other contractual obligations as described by TCEQ statement of work Continued participation in the Air Quality Monitoring (Rider 7) program and the TAMU-CC partnership is in accordance with historical and best practices for air quality monitoring. ALTERNATIVES: The City declines to participate in the Rider 7 program. Thereby losing funding associated with air quality monitoring and ceases the Air Quality Monitoring partnership with the TAMU-CC. FISCAL IMPACT: TCEQ Contract No. 582-20-11981 has a total value for FY24/25 of $424,212. No match is required for this contract.

WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement under authority of Section 15, which provides that the representatives who were authorized to sign this agreement are authorized to execute minor amendments to this agreement, such as changes in deadlines and minor changes in budget and scope of work; NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree to amend the Agreement as follows: 1. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 2. Section 2 of the Agreement is amended as follows: 2. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 4. Section 4 of the Agreement is amended as follows: 4. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE. The program shall be conducted from the execution date of the contract through December 31, 2025. 3. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 5. Section 5 of the Agreement is amended as follows: 5. PRICE AND PAYMENT. As compensation for the performance of the agreement, the City agrees to reimburse TAMU-CC up to $953,01830 for expenses authorized under the Grant. a. This agreement is funded exclusively from funds made available to the City by the Grant. The City's obligation is limited by the provisions of the Grant. The City is not liable to make payment to TAMU-CC, if funding is not available from TCEQ through the Grant. Payments may not exceed $953,018.30 for expenses authorized under the Grant. 4. MAXIMUM AUTHORIZED REIMBURSEMENT. The City agrees to increase the Maximum Authorized Reimbursement shown on the Contract Signature Page by an additional $387,791.00 The original Maximum Authorized Reimbursement, the amount of the increase, and the amended Maximum Authorized Reimbursement are as follows: $150,499.58 Original Maximum Authorized Reimbursement $420,727.72 Amendment #1 $381,791.00 Amendment #2 Revised Maximum Authorized Reimbursement $953,018.30 GRANT ACTIVITIES The Performing Party will implement all grant activities in order to monitor ozone and inventorying emissions, as required in Rider 7, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, th Article VI of the General Appropriations Act of the 86 Legislature. Task 1.2: Ambient Air Monitoring Network Project Task 1.2 will be to continue to monitor ambient ozone concentrations at the five city air monitoring sites. Relative humidity, temperature, and wind speed/direction will also be measured at each site and NO x concentrations will be measured at all three current sites. This includes increasing the spatial resolution of NO x measurements with the purchase and deployment of (2) additional NO analyzers. The monthly data will be x available to the public by hosting summary data figures on the Co (cbairquality.org). This task will directly support air monitoring requirements outlined in the State Implementation Plan (SIP) and demonstrate NAAQS compliance. For instance, CAIR SIP consists of reducing NOemissions x and the reduction evaluation depends on NO monitoring. Up until our recent monitoring efforts, NO monitors xx were not present in the region. NO and VOCs are primary ozone precursors but the relationship between these precursors and ozone formation x is not linear. Despite these direct impacts on ozone formation, the Corpus Christi airshed did not have a NO x monitoring station until we developed one this year. It does however have five centrally located VOC monitoring stations (1 AutoGC, 1 TNMOC, 4 canister). Depending on atmospheric conditions, ozone formation can be almost exclusively controlled by NO and mostly independent of VOCs. However, there are also conditions where ozone x formation can increase with VOC concentrations while not increasing or even decreasing with increasing NO. x Due to this nonlinear chemistry between precursors and product, determining whether ozone formation in an air shed or VOC levels) has proven difficult. NO data xxx limited but continuous NO xx monitoring is necessary to determine if th data provided xx by this task along with currently available VOC data will help determine if stakeholders should focus resources on future NO or VOC controls to mitigate ozone increases. x Deliverables and Dates 1.2 Deliverables 1.2 Date Ambient monitoring data collected at monitoring Continuous April 2024 Nov 2025 Reports to the City and Data to TCEQ Monthly Apr 2024 Dec 2025 Table 1: Ambient Air Monitoring Sites to be Operated by the Performing Party Location Instrumentation Instrumentation status Holly Road site Teledyne API T400 ozone analyzer, Teledyne API N500 NO analyzer, Working x (CAMS 660) RX3004-00-01 RX3000 Cellular Data Logger with 10 Inputs, SOLAR-5W - 5W Solar Panel, S-THB-M002 - Temperature/RH Smart Sensor, S-WSB-M003 - Wind Speed Smart Sensor, S-WDA-M003 - Wind Direction Smart Sensor Aransas Pass Teledyne API T400 ozone analyzer, Teledyne API N500 NO analyzer, Working x site RX3004-00-01 RX3000 Cellular Data Logger with 10 Inputs, SOLAR-5W - Teledyne N500 5W Solar Panel, S-THB-M002 - Temperature/RH Smart Sensor, (CAMS 659) at company for fix S-WSB-M003 - Wind Speed Smart Sensor, S-WDA-M003 - Wind Direction under warranty Smart Sensor Odem site Teledyne API T400 ozone analyzer, Teledyne API N500 NO analyzer, Working x (CAMS 686) RX3004-00-01 RX3000 Cellular Data Logger with 10 Inputs, SOLAR-5W - Teledyne N500 5W Solar Panel, S-THB-M002 - Temperature/RH Smart Sensor, at company for fix S-WSB-M003 - Wind Speed Smart Sensor, S-WDA-M003 - Wind Direction under warranty Smart Sensor Annaville site Teledyne API T400 ozone analyzer, Ecotech NO Sirinus analyzer, RX3004-Working x 00-01 RX3000 Cellular Data Logger with 10 Inputs, SOLAR-5W - 5W Solar Panel, S-THB-M002 - Temperature/RH Smart Sensor, S-WSB-M003 - Wind Speed Smart Sensor, S-WDA-M003 - Wind Direction Smart Sensor TAMUCC *Teledyne API T400 ozone analyzer, Ecotech NO Sirinus analyzer, *Currently being x campus site *RX3004-00-01 RX3000 Cellular Data Logger with 10 Inputs, *SOLAR-5W developed - 5W Solar Panel, *S-THB-M002 - Temperature/RH Smart Sensor, S-WSB- M003 - Wind Speed Smart Sensor, *S-WDA-M003 - Wind Direction Smart Sensor Health Will be developed in task 1.3 Will be Department site developed in task 1.3 Task 1.3: Create New Air Monitoring Site at City Health Department Deliverables and Dates 1.3 Deliverables 1.3 Date Ordering of air monitoring site shelter and instrumentation March 2023 Lab quality check of instrumentation and field deployment June 2023 Deliverables 14 Date QAPP/Mobile campaign planning Summer 2025 Mobile/Stationary measurements Fall 2025 Data report November/December 2025 Deliverable Summary Task 1 Deliverables and Dates: QAPP for Stationary Monitoring Network: April 2024 Air Monitoring and data delivered to TCEQ: Continuous May 2024 to Nov 2025 Develop Health Department Air Monitoring Site: June 2023 Monthly/Final Report: First week of each month and December 2025 QAPP for Mobile Air Monitoring Campaign: Summer 2025 Mobile Air Monitoring Campaign: Fall 2025 Mobile Air Monitoring Data Delivery: December 2025 Task 1 Total Direct Deliverable Cost $280,341.00 Task 2: Detailed Analysis of Ambient Monitoring Task 2 will report atmospheric conditions and chemical precursor concentrations associated with high or standard exceeding ozone measurements in the Corpus Christi airshed.

University of Houston Mobile Air Monitoring Campaign Corpus Christi Airshed A University of Houston team lead by Dr. Jimmy Flynn will perform mobile air monitoring in the Corpus Christi airshed over a four-day period in early November. The campaign will be focused on determining ozone and ozone precursor levels in areas of the airshed not currently covered by stationary monitoring with specific attention to the growing industrial footprint and shipping lanes. The mobile monitoring will tentatively cover urban areas along the full perimeter of Corpus Christi Bay (i.e. from Port Aransas moving south and looping around the bay to Aransas Pass). Specific measurements will include O, NO, NO, NO, CO, SO, HCHO, CH, unspeciated sum of reactive 3xy24 alkenes, bulk and specific VOCs via AROMA-VOC, 3-wavelength PM scattering and 2.5 absorption, PMsize distribution (0.13-2.5 µm), ceilometer, jNO, T/P/RH/WS/WD, GPS, total 2.5 2 sky camera. In addition, while not performing mobile measurements, stationary measurements directly adjacent to the Gulf of Mexico will allow characterization of the chemical composition of air being transported into Corpus Christi from the Gulf. The campaign will also allow for comparison to similar data provided by a previous similar air monitoring project, AQRP 20-003: Characterization of Corpus Christi and San Antonio Air Quality During the 2020 Ozone Season and the mobile monitoring done as part of 2022-2023 Rider 7 funding.

Deliverables Task 2 Date th Quarterly by the 30of Preliminary analysis and updates with quarterly reports December, March, June, & September Final analysis report December 2025 Task 2 costs are included under Task 1. Task 3: Soil biogenic NO flux characterization x A primary purpose of Rider 7 funds is to enhance ozone precursor emission inventory accuracy. While stationary NO sources and vehicle emissions are relatively straightforward to measure, x complexity arises with sources such as biogenic emissions. SNO, a byproduct of denitrification x and nitrification in soils, is influenced by various factors such as soil moisture, soil/air temperature, soil type, and available nitrogen. This emission can spike significantly following fertilization and rain events, leading to ozone formation and exacerbating air quality challenges (Romer et al., 2018; А TCEQ Contract Name: City of Corpus TCEQ Contract# 582-20-11981 Rider 7 Local Air Quality Planning Grant Tong et al., 2021). Current numerical models, particularly the widely used Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature (MEGAN), tend to underestimate soil biogenic NO (SNO) xx emissions. For instance, Oikawa et al., 2015 found that the numerical models when compared to direct chamber flux studies can underestimate SNO by a factor of ten. The limitations of these x models underscore the need for direct flux measurements from diverse land types under varying soil temperature and moisture conditions. To address this gap in understanding, we propose a comprehensive approach in South Texas. Over the course of one year, we will conduct monthly SNO soil chamber flux measurements across x different land use types, including crops, forested areas, flooded vegetation, urban grasses, and bare soil ground. These direct flux measurements will be accompanied by soil temperature, air temperature and soil moisture measurements to serve as valuable inputs to improve the accuracy of numerical models. Furthermore, we will leverage the National Land Cover Database to model SNO emissions in Nueces and San Patricio Counties according to land cover type. This integrated x approach aims to provide a more robust foundation for emission inventories and, consequently, enhance our ability to develop effective NO mitigation strategies. The SIP requires areas of x nonattainment to provide emission inventories, and while the region is currently in attainment, this task falls in line with these SIP requirements as a means of understanding where NO emissions x can be reduced to stay in attainment.

SUMMARY: This Ordinance authorizes an amendment to the FY 2023-24 TIRZ #3 budget for Payout to Agnes Water, LLC in the amounts of $723.47 for tax year 2020 and $2,967.13 for tax year 2021, from the TIRZ #3 Project Specific Development Program. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: After the successful renovation of a building that had been vacant for 30+ years, Stonewater Properties, LLC submitted the completion of improvements made to the property located at 401 Water Street in 2019, making them eligible for a 5-year reimbursement. In 2020, Agnes Water, LLC bought out Stonewater Properties, LLC, thereby transferring all future reimbursement payments to Agnes Water, LLC.

ATTEST: Paulette Guajardo, Mayor Rebecca Huerta, City Secretary AGENDA MEMORANDUM First Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting March 19, 2024 Second Reading Ordinance for the City Council Meeting March 26, 2024 DATE: March 19, 2024 TO: Peter Zanoni, City Manager FROM: Kevin Smith, Director of Aviation KevinS4@cctexas.com (361) 826-1292 Ordinance authorizing a one-year lease agreement with Turo, Inc. for Peer-to-Peer Vehicle Sharing Services at Corpus Christi International Airport. CAPTION: Ordinance authorizing the City Manager to execute a one-year lease agreement with Turo, Inc. for peer-to-peer vehicle sharing service at Corpus Christi International Airport, with two one-year options to renew, in consideration of monthly lease payments based on 10% of gross revenue. SUMMARY: The operating agreement gives Turo the ability to operate in designated paid parking lots of the Corpus Christi International Airport for a percentage of gross revenue. The term of the operating agreement is for one year, with two one-year options for renewal. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Turo is a peer-to-peer carsharing company based in San Francisco, California. The company does not own nor maintain any vehicles, but allows private vehicle owners to rent their vehicles to others via a phone app. The company launched in 2012 and its usage skyrocketed during the COVID pandemic. Since then, the company has continued to grow in communities across the country. Turo operates in the Corpus Christi community, and many vehicle owners offer the ability to pick up their vehicle at Corpus Christi International Airport. Today, these vehicles are parked in Short Term and exchanged with renters without any revenue of this transaction being captured by the City. Airport staff and Turo began discussions in 2023 to enter an operating agreement. The terms of the agreement include a concessionaire fee equal to ten percent of gross revenues. Turo users will be authorized to operate in the Short Term parking lot but must pay the daily rate for the parking lot. No parking spaces are expressly reserved for Turo vehicles. ALTERNATIVES: Alternatives include allowing Turo to continue to operate without an operating agreement, which relieves them of remitting any revenue to the City. FISCAL IMPACT: The airport will receive a use fee equal to 10% of the gross revenue related to any transaction in which a shared vehicle driver selects the airport for delivery of a shared vehicle. Parking lot fees are applicable for all vehicles parked longer than 3 hours.

Ordinance rezoning --Family 6 District ----Family District; Providing for a penalty not to exceed $2,000 and publication. (Planning Commission and Staff recommend approval) SUMMARY: This item is to rezone the property to allow a multi-family development. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The subject property, with a 1.53 acreage, is within the Flour Bluff area, north of NAS (Naval Air Station) Drive and South Padre Island Drive (SH-358), and west of Waldron Road and NAS Drive. The site formerly hosted a non-conforming use (manufactured home park) with a 5-unit multi-family structure remaining at the northeast corner of the site. Approximately 0.6 mile north, is the southern boundary of the nearly 2,067-acre TRUAXX naval field. The site is within the MCAOD (Military Area Compatibility Overlay District) of the TRUAXX base, outside any of its CZ (Clear Zone), APZ (Accident Potential Zone) I and II zones; however, within its light and vertical obstruction safety subzones. The subject property is surrounded by vacant properties to the north, west, and south. - Commercial zoned properties that are vacant inner-block, with commercial uses, along NAS Drive. The properties to the north, abutting the northern and western boundaries of ---Family 6, and are vacant. South of the - not imme- parcel, contains several small enclaves of non-conforming uses; including a self-storage facility, and multi-family uses. The applicant is requesting an amendment to the existing zoning district to accommodate a multi-family development targeting the senior population; for seniors; expanding the existing 5-unit apartments into a total of 35, with 30 new units out of steel shipping containers. The proposed development will offer affordable housing to senior citizens on fixed income with options for veterans in the Flour Bluff community. The applicant revealed that similar communities in their portfolio are characterized by a large group of their residents having little to no vehicular access; relying on bicycles, public transportation, or ride shares. The development will also include support and recreational facilities. - types may take the form of single-family detached, zero lot line, traditional semi- attached, two-family, townhouse or apartment units. These zoning districts are used in areas having convenient access to collector and arterial streets, and nearby civic and commercial uses, as well as employment opportunities. Apart from the variety of housing types permitted, group homes, educational facilities, parks and open areas, and places of worship are also permitted. The proposed rezoning is consistent with many elements and goals of Plan CC (City of (Future Land Use Map) designation of Transition Aviation Special District, warranting an amendment to the FLUM.

Staff Analysis and Recommendation The proposed rezoning is consistent with many elements and goals of PlanCC; however, it is inconsistent withthe FLUM’s designation of Transition Aviation Special District, warranting an amendment to the FLUM. Although inconsistent with the designated future land use, staff’s opinion is that the proposed development would be beneficial to the community. Staff noted that while the FLUM has designated the area north of NAS Drive and South Padre Island Drive, and south of the TRUAXX base as Transition Aviation Special District District; its main purpose is to regulate vertical obstructions. Accident potential risk is largely diminished; a one-story development is being proposed. The proposed development addresses the provision of housing as recommended by the City’s guiding documents for different income levels and stages of life. Staff finds the proposed means acceptable to provide quality housing for the moderate senior population of Flour Bluff and beyond. The rezoning is compatible with the present zoning and conforming uses of nearby property and to the character of the surrounding area. PLANNING COMMISSION AND STAFF RECOMMEND APPROVAL TO THE “RM-2” MULTI-FAMILY DISTRICT AGENDA MEMORANDUM Action Item for the City Council Meeting of March 19, 2024 DATE: March 19, 2023 TO: Peter Zanoni, City Manager FROM: Jeff H. Edmonds, P. E., Director of Engineering Services jeffreye@cctexas.com (361) 826-3851 Josh Chronley, CTCD, Assistant Director of Finance & Procurement joshc2@cctexas.com (361) 826-3169 Master Services Agreement Amendment 1 Staff Augmentation Services CAPTION: Motion authorizing Amendment No. 1 to a Master Services Agreement for Staff Augmentation Services to AG|CM of Corpus Christi in an amount not to exceed $1,500,000.00, for a total contract value not to exceed $3,000,000.00 with a two year extension supporting projects located Citywide with funding available from the Capital Improvements Program. SUMMARY: This motion approves Amendment No. 1 to a Master Services Agreement to perform as-needed Staff Augmentation Services addressing critical staffing needs experienced in Engineering Services to support delivery of the Capital Improvements Program. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Engineering Services is charged with Program. Successful implementation of these programs requires a properly staffed and trained team of program and construction professionals. The department has historically used a blend of in-house and contracted staff resources to accomplish its mission of delivercapital improvement program. The Engineering Services active construction portfolio currently has nearly 100 contracts with a total current contract value of approximately $650 Million with over $350 Million of unbilled value. Actions on the current agenda will increase those amounts by nearly $200 Million and that backlog is expected to continue increasing rapidly and will probably exceed $650 Million in unbilled value before the end of the fiscal year. It is difficult to staff up as quickly as the construction backlog is growing. A contract like the AG|CM MSA provides an alternative to rapidly respond to urgent staffing needs. We are working to adjust our staffing levels and recruitment efforts in response to the increasing workload. It is difficult, however, to make those adjustments as quickly as our backlog is growing. The Engineering Services Department has historically used a blend of in-house and contracted staff resources to respond to spikes in activity. The contract staff are managed in a very similar fashion to City Employees. The contracted personnel are expected to maintain regular business hours on their assigned days of work and to complete required deliverables in the same fashion as a City Employee performing in the same capacity. They are simply paid through the vendor rather than City payroll. The MSA will be a task order driven contract. The funding will come from projects that are supported by contract employees in the same way that Engineering Services charges for our in- The task orders will be based on the hourly T&M rates listed in the contract rate schedule. By retaining the services of AG|CM, staff can ensure that major CIP projects have a dedicated staff member. Some major construction projects that may be covered with staffing from this contract totals over $300 million and include: Oso WRP Process Upgrades and Breakpoint Chlorination Facility Decommissioning-- $110 million O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant (ONSWTP) Raw Water Influent and Chemical Facilities -- $86 million ONSWTP Pre-Sedimentation Basin Dredging--$8.7 million Police Training Academy--$21 million Fire Station #3--$9.5 million Bill Witt Aquatic Center--$10 million Yorktown Boulevard--$20 million Flour Bluff Drive--$14 million 2023 Residential Street Rebuild Program - $24 million COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS This professional services contract falls under statutory exemption and does not require a competitive solicitation. AG|CM specializes in helping organizations manage and staff large capital construction programs. They do not design or build projects but Representatives. Organizations often have internal Project Management departments, such as Engineering Services, to oversee construction. Sometimes schedules and staffing deficiencies cause the entities to look externally for additional support. In these situations where workloads exceed internal capacity, AG|CM offers Staff Augmentation services to clients. They have frequently supported the City with staff augmentation services in the past. AG|CM is a locally headquartered firm that has been a valued partner of the City since 1996. AG|CM provides a unique service offering in the local marketplace. This contract is being solely sourced to AG|CM in the interest of expediting access to these time-sensitive services and because of their specialized local service offering. A competitive solicitation would take several months to complete and AG|CM is currently providing these services in a cost-effective manner to the City. ALTERNATIVES: City Council could choose not to authorize amendment to the MSA but this will result in delays and increased costs for both design and construction. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact is an amount of $1,500,000.00 to be funded through the Capital Program and Bond Program Funds. FUNDING DETAIL: Funding will be available within the budgets of the supported capital projects. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this motion to award Amendment No.1 to the current AG|CM MSA contract.

ARTICLE 30 – MISCELLANEOUS END OF SECTION EXHIBIT F Page 22 of 22 AGENDA MEMORANDUM City Council Meeting of March 19, 2024 DATE: March 19, 2024 TO: Peter Zanoni, City Manager FROM: Jeff H. Edmonds, P. E., Director of Engineering Services jeffreye@cctexas.com (361) 826-3851 Ernesto De La Garza, Director of Public Works ErnestoD2@cctexas.com (361) 826-1677 Resolution approving Bond 2022 Street Projects Pavement Design Recommendations CAPTION: Resolution approving pavement design recommendations for the Bond 2022 Streets projects following City Council Policy 28 which outlines the guidelines for awarding arterial and collector street construction contracts using concrete pavement or asphalt pavement. PURPOSE: This resolution item approves pavement recommendations for the Bond 2022 Streets projects. Following City Council Policy 28 Award Guidelines for Arterial and Collector Streets with Concrete pavement (PCC) or Asphalt pavement (HMAC), City staff is making recommendations for the 13 streets projects, excluding 2 construction only projects (Yorktown Boulevard and Beach Access Road #3), that were approved by voters on November 8, 2022. BACKGROUND: On October 27, 2020, City Council approved a resolution amending City Council Policy 28 that outlines the guidelines for awarding arterial and collector street construction contracts using concrete pavement or asphalt pavement. The policy includes an emphasis on the evaluation of existing geotechnical soil conditions. The policy has been reviewed by City staff and the guidelines for awarding arterial and collector street construction contracts using concrete pavement or asphalt pavement are still accurate. Below is a summary of the approved City Council Policy 28guidelines for developing recommendations for surface types for City road projects: 1. When the project contains a majority subgrade with a Plasticity Index (PI) greater than 30 or deemed as a moderate to highly expansive soil by the design Geotechnical Engineer, the City should recommend HMAC. 2. When the cost difference of PCC is below $125,000/lane mile, the City should recommend PCC. 3. For residential projects, the City should recommend HMAC. 4. Other criteria to consider is if the adjacent pavement section is PCC, consideration should be given to providing a uniform surface type, at the discretion of the City Public Works staff. On April 25, 2023, City Council approved the mass selection of professional engineering services for the design of the thirteen Bond 2022 street projects. Following City Council approval for the design contracts, City staff requested geotechnical investigations of the Bond 2022 streets projects. City Council Policy 28 calls for pavement design recommendations that provide clear direction to staff on which projects will be designed for asphalt pavement only, concrete pavement only, and projects that should be bid for both asphalt and concrete. The policy prefers for staff to identify projects that can be bid with both surfaces. However, the geotechnical investigation and other considerations (i.e. continuation of previous construction work) revealed no streets in Bond 2022 that should be bid with both concrete and asphalt options. Below is a summary of the results: Proposed Pavement Design Number of Streets Recommendations Asphalt and Concrete 0 Asphalt Only 9 Concrete Only 4 Total 13 Attached to this memo is a table that lists the 13 street pavement design recommendations. ALTERNATIVES: The alternative is to reject staff recommendations and evaluate pavement recommendations at the time of construction contract award. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for this item. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the resolution as presented.

ATTEST: Paulette Guajardo, Mayor Rebecca Huerta, City Secretary AGENDA MEMORANDUM Action Item for the City Council Meeting of October 27, 2020 DATE: September 30, 2020 TO: Peter Zanoni, City Manager FROM: Richard Martinez, Director of Public Works RichardM5@cctexas.com (361) 826-3419 Resolution Amending City Council Policy 28 Award Guidelines for Arterial and Collector Streets with Concrete or Asphalt Pavement CAPTION: Resolution amending City Council Policy 28 that outlines the guidelines for awarding arterial and collector street construction contracts using concrete pavement or asphalt pavement. SUMMARY: This resolution amends City Council Policy 28 which outlines the guidelines for awarding arterial and collector street construction contracts using concrete pavement (PCC) or asphalt pavement (HMAC). This policy must be updated annually. The policy updates include an emphasis on including the evaluation of the geotechnical soil conditions and recommending the removal of the residential streets from this policy. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: Prior to Bond 2008 the City would typically design arterial road reconstruction projects with HMAC pavement. With Bond 2008, the City began to bid some of the arterial streets with both HMAC and PCC pavement designs, resulting in multiple bid awards for the PCC pavement alternative. In 2013, the City upgraded the pavement design standards to a 30-year design life using the Association of State Highway Transportation Officials Guide for Design of Pavement Structures. The change in design criteria, combined with market forces, created an environment where PCC became much more competitive with HMAC. In 2016, the City began designing and bidding all arterial Bond projects with both HMAC and PCC pavement alternatives. In 2016, the practice was to design both HMAC and PCC using a 30-year design life and award the bid to the lower cost pavement alternative. Bidding projects utilizing both PCC and HMAC designs enhanced competition among contractors and reduced costs. Several projects received lower bids for the PCC pavement alternative. In early 2017, at council request, Engineering Services staff performed a life cycle cost maintenance plan. The results of that cost analysis validated the belief that PCC offered reduced maintenance costs over HMAC. The analysis indicated that the City should be willing to pay an additional $100,000 per lane mile for PCC pavement based on maintenance savings. Staff adopted a policy recommending award of the PCC alternative if it was within $100,000 per lane mile of the HMAC alternative. That policy was communicated to City Council in a memo dated June 2, 2017 and was applied to all bids. In April 2019, an updated memo addressed a question raised at the September 18, 2018 City Council meeting during discussions about the Rodd Field Road Improvement Project award. That project was bid with both HMAC and PCC pavement alternatives. The HMAC alternative was awarded; however, council had a question as to whether the $100,000 per lane mile adequately reflected the value of maintenance savings from PCC pavement. This policy was last updated on July 16, 2019 as a result. Freese and Nichols, Inc. was tasked with re-evaluating the life cycle cost analysis between HMAC and PCC pavements and providing a letter report with recommendations resulting in three cost range options for bid award recommendations. Upon the review of the recommendations, Engineering Services concluded the analysis warranted increasing the previous cost per lane mile from $100,000 to $125,000 . For the FY 2021 policy update, Public Works contracted with Roadway Asset Services (RAS) to re-evaluate the life cycle cost analysis between HMAC and PCC pavements. RAS has the required experience for evaluating pavement networks and general performance. Scott Gordon, Principal Engineer and President, has over 30 years of experience in pavement evaluation, including providing similar services for 4 out of the 5 major cities in Texas. This policy update includes an emphasis on the evaluation of existing geotechnical soil conditions. Public Works proposes incorporating geotechnical testing in the design phase of the project to determine the plasticity index (PI) of the existing soil. The plasticity index is the size of the range of water contents where the soil exhibits plastic properties. As indicated in the recommendations from RAS, soils with a PI greater than 30 are characterized as an expansive soil. The expansiveness of clay soils will have a major impact on the performance of pavement structures. Pavements on clays soils must be designed with an additional stabilized layer, which should be accounted for in the initial design and capital expenses. Expansive soils will also require more frequent maintenance due to the higher percentage of cracking and differential movement anticipated and, in some cases, with different types of maintenance. HMAC pavements will likely require additional mill and overlay activities to correct differential movement and PCC pavements will likely require grinding and additional panel replacements due to the differential movements. To determine an updated life cycle cost analysis, RAS has used maintenance actives, assigned costs to the activities, applied discount and inflation rates using a 40- year analysis timeline. The details of this life cycle costanalysiscan be found in Attachment A. The results from the RAS cost analysis indicated that the City should not use concrete pavement for arterial and collector streets on soils with a PI greater than 30. If the PI is less than 30 then this policy will be used to determine the selection of asphalt or concrete. Therefore, if the initial construction bid is within $128,000 per lane mile between HMAC and PCC, then PCC should be chosen. If the difference in initial construction bid is greater than $128,000, then HMAC should be chosen. With a minimal differential in price, Public Works recommends utilizing the existing $125,000 per lane mile for construction bids on arterial and collector roadway projects. An additional item for consideration in the selection of pavement surfaces should be the adjacent pavement types. In areas of PCC, prioritization should be given to PCC, similarly on areas with HMAC. For example, if a proposed project is adjacent to an existing PCC section, additional consideration will be given to PCC as the pavement selection for continuity. Additionally, this policy update reinforces previous recommendations of the elimination of residential streets from the evaluation of PCC. This is due to the general location of utilities in residential areas and lower traffic loads on residential streets. Typically, utilities are in the street. Street cuts needed to repair utility lines would result in costly repairs. At this time, it is not deemed financially advantageous to bid residential streets in PCC. Below is a summary of the recommendations from Public Works: 1. When the project contains a majority subgrade with a PI greater than 30 or deemed as a moderate to highly expansive soil by the design Geotechnical Engineer, the City should recommend HMAC. 2. When the cost difference of PCC is below $125,000/lane mile, the City should recommend PCC. 3. For residential projects, the City should recommend HMAC. 4. Other criteria to consider is if the adjacent pavement section is PCC, consideration should be given to providing a uniform surface type, at the discretion of the City Public Works staff. ALTERNATIVES: Do not approve this policy update and defer to the existing policy. FISCAL IMPACT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of this policy update.

Edmonds, P.E., Director of Engineering Services jeffreye@cctexas.com (361) 826-3851 Wesley Nebgen, Director of Water System Infrastructure wesleyN@cctexas.com (361) 826-3111 Josh Chronley, CTCD, Assistant Director of Finance & Procurement joshc2@cctexas.com (361) 826-3169 Construction Contract Award and Professional Services Amendment Oso Water Reclamation Plant Process Upgrade & Breakpoint Chlorination Facility Decommissioning CAPTION: Motion authorizing a construction contract to CSA Construction, Inc., Houston, Texas, for the Oso Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) Process Upgrade & Breakpoint Chlorination (BPC) Facility Decommissioning project to replace the existing Breakpoint Chlorination (BPC) facility with biological ammonia removal treatment process, provides a third treatment basin and modifies the existing two treatment basins to increase the treatment capacity in an amount of $109,890,200.00 and an Amendment No. 10 to the Professional Services Contract with Ardurra Group Inc., Corpus Christi, Texas in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000.00 for a total amount of $11,048,529.00 for construction phase services, located in Council District 4, with FY 2024 funding available from the Wastewater Capital Fund. SUMMARY: This authorizes an amendment for construction phase services with Ardurra Group Inc and a construction contract with CSA Construction, Inc., for the Oso WRP Process Upgrade & BPC Facility Decommissioning project. The project replaces the existing Breakpoint Chlorination (BPC) facility with biological ammonia removal treatment process, provides a third treatment basin and modifies the existing two treatment basins to increase the treatment capacity from the existing 16.2 MGD to 18.0 MGD, and rehabilitates/upgrades/replaces the aging and deteriorated treatment infrastructures including blower system, clarification units, disinfection system, solids dewatering and disposal system, plant electrical and instrumentation system, plant yard piping and miscellaneous improvements. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: constructed in 1941 with several expansion projects that have occurred over the years. The plant has a rated treatment capacity for average daily flows (ADF) of 16.2 million gallons per day (MGD) and peak 2hour flows up to 98.0 MGD. Current daily treatment flows are approximately 12.75 MGD which represents approximately 78 On April 29, 2011, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) issued a renewal of (TPDES) permit, including a new monthly effluent ammonia limit. Prior to this renewal, the Oso WRP permit did not contain an ammonia limitation. To meet the TCEQ compliance date on October 29, 2013, the City constructed a BPC facility to oxidize the ammonia chemically and a step feed modification to reduce BPC chemical usage. This construction, completed in August 2013, was not intended to be a long-term solution, but rather a temporary, short-term, low capital cost solution to meet the uent ammonia requirements while planning and implementing a permanent long- term CIP project to replace the BPC facility with biological nutrient removal (BNR) treatment process within five years. From 2013 to 2017, the City contemplated decommissioning is period major . Moreover, an eight-year negotiation between the City and EPA regarding adoption of new water quality standards in the Oso Bay which was critical to the Oso WRP discharge permit renewal was settled in January 2020. With the approval of new Water Quality Standards in the Oso Bay from both TCEQ and EPA, the City renewed the TCEQ discharge permit and was able to implement the Oso WRP CIP project without regulatory risks. With the above conditions, the permanent long-term CIP project for the Oso WRP was divided into two Phases: Phase I Oso WRP Headworks and Lift Station, and Phase II Oso WRP Process Upgrade & Breakpoint Chlorination Facility Decommissioning.

CSA is currently working on the Oso WRP Coase Bubble Aeration and the Whitecap WWTP Process Improvements projects and has successfully completed projects for the City of Corpus Christi including the Oso WRP BPC Facility project completed in 2013 and the Phase I Oso WRP Headworks and Lift Station Improvements completed in 2022. ALTERNATIVES: The alternative is to not award the construction contract to the low bidder, CSA Construction, Inc. This would delay improvements to the wastewater treatment plant and impact the ability to reliably treat wastewater from this service basin. Maintenance costs would continue to increase as the current process relies on high chemical usage and is inefficient due to substandard aeration. Re-bidding this project would certainly result in increased construction costs. The City would have increased exposure to TCEQ permit violations and fees if the contract is not awarded. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact for the FY 2024 is an amount of $1,000,000.00 for the amendment and $14,200,000.00 for construction with funding available from the Wastewater Capital Fund. The remaining funds will be incurred in FY 2025, FY 2026, FY 2027, and FY 2028 in the amount of $95,690,200. Budgetary adjustments will be made in FY 2025, FY 2026, FY 2027, and FY 2028 to reflect the new contract costs.

The next phase of work involves secondary treatment improvements and a process conversion to Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR). This will allow the City to decommission current breakpoint chlorination (BPC) system which is currently achieving ammonia removal by chemical addition and will allow plant to maintain permit compliance by removing ammonia more efficiently and safely through biological processes. In addition, equipment associated with secondary treatment units have exceeded original design life and have become maintenance intensive and a hindrance to operations. Scope of improvements include constructing a new 6 MGD train, retrofitting existing aeration basins with fine bubble aeration equipment, construction of new blower building, replacement or rehabilitation of existing scum and sludge removal components on secondary clarifiers, improvements to chlorine contact chambers to address short circuiting, demolition/decommissioning of breakpoint chlorination system, upgrades in the existing belt press building, and other miscellaneous enhancements associated with administrative building, digesters and access roads.

Stevens Water Treatment Plant (ONSWTP) in an amount of $86,679,500.00 for Total Base Bid plus selected Alternates 1 and 2; professional services contract amendment No. 3 to Ardurra Group, Inc. of Corpus Christi to provide construction phase services in an amount of $734,472.00 for a total contract value not to exceed $1,924,384.00; and professional services contract amendment No. 7 to Freese and Nichols Inc. of Corpus Christi to provide construction phase services in an amount of $987,466.00 for a total contract value not to exceed $3,627,015.00, with FY 2024 funding from the Water CIP Fund. SUMMARY: This item authorizes a construction contract for new raw water infrastructure, raw water piping, chemical feed systems, and chemical storage facilities. In addition to the construction contract, two professional services contract amendments would be authorized to provide construction phase services in support of this project. This project will increase water treatment capacity and operational resiliency, by specifically improving hydraulic constraints, source water mixing, and chemical application. BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS: The O.N. Stevens WTP was originally constructed in 1954, with the most recent plant expansion constructed in 1981. The objective of this project is to alleviate hydraulic restrictions in the raw water processes as well as provide new infrastructure capable of adequate source water mixing, chemical application, operational flexibility, and the ability to further increase the water plant capacity. Completion of this project will increase the treatment capacity of the O.N. Stevens WTP to 115 MGD and will make it possible to achieve a future capacity of 160 MGD with the completion of the other projects identified in CCWs upgrade plan. The projects included in the upgrade plan are Sedimentation Basin Improvements (Project No. 18130), Flocculation Upgrades (Project No. 22407), Solids Handling (23059) which are detailed in the current Capital Improvement Plan. The scope of this project includes the demolition of existing raw water infrastructure, construction of new raw water infrastructure including a metering structure, chemical feed and storage structures, raw water piping, splitter structure, and yard piping. Instrumentation and electrical improvements for the raw water infrastructure and chemical facilities are also a significant portion of the work. A plant process water booster pump station will also be provided for the effective feed of the chemical and process water. Chemical feed improvements will optimize the treatment process and improve mixing. The piping improvements will consist of the installation of 2,700 linear feet of 54-inch, 350 linear feet of 72-inch, 160 linear feet of 84-inch, and 370 linear feet of 108-inch new site piping. The new infrastructure will consist specifically of raw water metering station, raw water junction, mix and splitter, and pump diffusion structures. The selected bid alternatives include upgrades to the East Chemical Facilities and the Inlet Channel and baffling improvements. The project was originally bid in November 2021 but only one bid was received. The decision was made by Engineering, Finance & Procurement, and CCW to re-bid the project and make modifications to the original plan documents. These modifications included updating the design of the receiving unit to improve operational resiliency, modifying the originally proposed construction schedule, modifying the recycle wash water process, and other design modifications. The revised construction schedule for the project will ensure that the plant can continue to operate effectively during the project. PROJECT TIMELINE: Project schedule reflects City Council award in March 2024 with anticipated completion in June 2027. COMPETITIVE SOLICITATION PROCESS The Contracts and Procurement Department issued the first Request for Bids (RFB 3857) on November 10, 2021, and received a single bid above the OPCC. A second Request for Bids (RFB 4681) was issued on November 29, 2023. The City receivedaproposal from one(1) bidder as follows: Bid Summary Contractor Base Bid including Alt 1 and Alt 2 Reytec Construction Resources, Inc. $86,679,500.00 Opinion of Probable $75,000,000.00 Construction Cost Reytec Construction Resources, Inc., has successfully completed numerous City projects including Six Points Intersection, Everhart Road Holly Road to SPID, and Staples Street Kostoryz Road to Brawner Parkway all featuring large diameter replacement. ALTERNATIVES: City Council could choose not to award the construction contract to the only bidder, Reytec Construction Resources, Inc. Re-bidding the project would almost certainly result in increased costs. This would also delay needed improvements and hinder the operational resiliency at the ONSWTP. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact in FY 2024 is an amount of $25,400,000 with funding available from the Water Capital Fund. The remaining funds will be incurred in FY 2025 and FY 2026 in an amount of $63,001,438. Budgetary adjustments will be made in FY 2025 and FY 2026 to reflect the new contract costs.
