To address this problem town environmental staff and engineers have identified a prioritized list of stormwater retrofits and upgrades. Projects have already been completed or are nearly complete at the town snow dump, public works facility, East Vail interchange, Stephen's Park and Ford Park soccer fields. The next high priority project is on Westhaven Drive. This project is designed to filter and treat stormwater from the Hotel Talisa complex, Westhaven Drive and portions of I-70 and the South Frontage Road. In addition to the $167,589 in state funds, Hotel Talisa has contributed $20,000 towards this project. Matching funds from the town are required and budgeted.

If requested by the State, the Contractor shall provide the State with written proof of such insurance coverage. 9. Rights in Data, Documents and Computer Software or Other Intellectual Property. All intellectual property including without limitation, databases, software, documents, research, programs and codes, as well as all, reports, studies, data, photographs, negatives or other documents, drawings or materials prepared by the Contractor in the performance of its obligations under this contract shall be the exclusive property of the State. Unless otherwise stated, all such material shall be delivered to the State by the Contractor upon completion, termination, or cancellation of this contract. Contractor shall not use, willingly allow, or cause to have such materials used for any purpose other than the performance of the Contractor’s obligations under this contract without the prior written consent of the State. All documentation, accompanying the intellectual property or otherwise, shall comply with the State requirements which include but is not limited to all documentation being in a paper, human readable format which is useable by one who is reasonably proficient in the given subject area. Software documentation shall be delivered by Contractor to the State that clearly identifies the programming language and version used, and when different programming languages are incorporated, identifies the interfaces between code programmed in different programming languages.

Files containing the source code shall be delivered and their significance to the program described in the documentation. The documentation shall describe error messages and the location in the source code, by page, line number, or other suitable identifier, where the error message is generated.

Subject to the Public (Open) Records Act, section 24-72-101, et seq., C.R.S., as amended, if the Contractor obtains access to any records, files, or other information of the State in connection with, or during the performance of, this Contract, then the Contractor shall keep all such records, files, or other information confidential and shall comply with all laws and regulations concerning the confidentiality of all such records, files, or information to the same extent as such laws and regulations apply to the State. Contractor shall protect the confidentiality of all information accessed, used, August 6, 2019 - Page 29 of 109 Intergovernmental Template Ver 22.4.19 Page 5 of 5 held, created or received in connection with this Contract and shall insure that any subcontractors or agents of Contractor protect the confidentiality of all information under this Contract. Contractor shall access, use and disclose confidential information only for the operation and administration of the Contract, and shall not directly or indirectly disclose confidential information after the term of the Contract. Contractor shall implement appropriate safeguards as are necessary to prevent accidental or unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information and shall maintain a comprehensive written information privacy and security program that includes administrative, technical and physical safeguards for maintaining and transmitting electronic confidential information. Contractor shall promptly notify the State if Contractor breaches the confidentiality of any information covered by this Contract. Any breach of confidentiality by the Contractor, or third party agents of the Contractor, shall constitute good cause for the State to cancel this Contract, without liability to the State. Any State waiver of an alleged breach of confidentiality by the Contractor, or third party agents of the Contractor, does not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach by the Contractor, or third party agents of the Contractor. The Contractor must identify to the State the information that it considers confidential or proprietary. This is a continuing obligation. Confidential or proprietary information for the purpose of this paragraph is information relating to Contractor’s research, development, trade secrets, business affairs, internal operations and management procedures and those of its customers, clients or affiliates, but does not include information lawfully obtained by third parties, information which is in the public domain, or information which is or could have been acquired/developed independently by the State or a third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the State shall not be in violation of its obligations under this section should it disclose confidential information if such disclosure is, in the sole opinion of the State’s legal counsel, required by applicable law and/or legal process (including, but not limited to, disclosures required pursuant to the Colorado (Open) Public Records Act, sections 24-72-201, et. seq, C.R.S., as now or hereafter amended). The State shall endeavor to provide notice to the Contractor, as promptly as practicable under the circumstances, of any demand, request, subpoena, court order or other action requiring such disclosure, in order to afford Contractor the opportunity to take such lawful action as it deems appropriate to oppose, prevent or limit the disclosure, solely at its own instance and expense; but nothing herein shall be construed to require the State to refuse or delay compliance with any such law, order or demand. 11. Records Maintenance, Performance Monitoring & Audits. The Contractor shall maintain a complete file of all records, documents, communications, and other materials that pertain to the operation of the program/project or the delivery of services under this contract. Such files shall be sufficient to properly reflect all direct and indirect costs of labor, materials, equipment, supplies and services, and other costs of whatever nature for which a contract payment was made. These records shall be maintained according to generally accepted accounting principles and shall be easily separable from other Contractor records. The Contractor shall protect the confidentiality of all records and other materials containing personally identifying information that are maintained in accordance with this contract. Except as provided by law, no information in possession of the Contractor about any individual constituent shall be disclosed in a form including identifying information without the prior written consent of the person in interest, a minor's parent, guardian, or the State. The Contractor shall have written policies governing access to, duplication and dissemination of, all such information and advise its agents, if any, that they are subject to these confidentiality requirements. The Contractor shall provide its agents, if any, with a copy or written explanation of these confidentiality requirements before access to confidential data is permitted. The Contractor authorizes the State, the federal government or their designee, to perform audits and/or inspections of its records, at any reasonable time during the term of this contract and for a period of six (6) years following the termination of this contract, to assure compliance with the state or federal government's terms and/or to evaluate the Contractor's performance. Any amounts the State paid improperly shall be immediately returned to the State or may be recovered in accordance with other remedies. All such records, documents, communications, and other materials shall be the property of the State unless otherwise specified herein and shall be maintained by the Contractor in a central location as custodian for the State on behalf of the State, for a period of six (6) years from the date of final payment or submission of the final federal expenditure report under this contract, unless the State requests that the records be retained for a longer period, or until an audit has been completed with the following qualification. If an audit by or on behalf of the federal and/or state government has begun but is not completed at the end of the six (6) year period, or if audit findings have not been resolved after a six (6) year period, the materials shall be retained until the resolution of the audit findings. August 6, 2019 - Page 30 of 109 Intergovernmental Template Ver 22.4.19 Page 6 of 6 The Contractor shall permit the State, any other governmental agency authorized by law, or an authorized designee thereof, in its sole discretion, to monitor all activities conducted by the Contractor pursuant to the terms of this contract. Monitoring may consist of internal evaluation procedures, reexamination of program data, special analyses, on-site verification, formal audit examinations, or any other procedures as deemed reasonable and relevant. All such monitoring shall be performed in a manner that will not unduly interfere with contract work. 12. Taxes. The State, as purchaser, is exempt from all federal excise taxes under Chapter 32 of the Internal Revenue Code [No. 84-730123K] and from all state and local government use taxes [C.R.S. 39- 26-114(a) and 203, as amended]. The Contractor is hereby notified that when materials are purchased for the benefit of the State, such exemptions apply except that in certain political subdivisions the vendor may be required to pay sales or use taxes even though the ultimate product or service is provided to the State. These sales or use taxes will not be reimbursed by the State. 13. Conflict of Interest. During the term of this contract, the Contractor shall not engage in any business or personal activities or practices or maintain any relationships which conflict in any way with the Contractor fully performing his/her obligations under this contract. Additionally, the Contractor acknowledges that, in governmental contracting, even the appearance of a conflict of interest is harmful to the interests of the State. Thus, the Contractor agrees to refrain from any practices, activities or relationships which could reasonably be considered to be in conflict with the Contractor's fully performing his/her obligations to the State under the terms of this contract, without the prior written approval of the State. In the event that the Contractor is uncertain whether the appearance of a conflict of interest may reasonably exist, the Contractor shall submit to the State a full disclosure statement setting forth the relevant details for the State's consideration and direction. Failure to promptly submit a disclosure statement or to follow the State's direction in regard to the apparent conflict shall be grounds for termination of the contract. Further, the Contractor, and its subcontractors or subgrantees, shall maintain a written code of standards governing the performance of its employees engaged in the award and administration of contracts. No employee, officer, or agent of the Contractor, subcontractor, or subgrantee shall participate in the selection, or in the award or administration of a contract or subcontract supported by Federal funds if a conflict of interest, real or apparent, would be involved. Such a conflict would arise when: a. The employee, officer or agent; b. Any member of the employee’s immediate family; c. The employee’s partner; or d. An organization which employees, or is about to employ, any of the above, has a financial or other interest in the firm selected for award. The Contractor’s, subcontractor’s, or subgrantee’s officers, employees, or agents will neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors, or anything of monetary value from Contractor’s potential contractors, or parties to subagreements. 14. Inspection and Acceptance (Services) and Contractor Warranty. The State reserves the right to inspect services provided under this contract at all reasonable times and places during the term of the contract. “Services” as used in this clause includes services performed or tangible material produced or delivered in the performance of services. If any of the services do not conform to contract requirements, the State may require the contractor to perform the services again in conformity with contract requirements, with no additional payment. When defects in the quality or quantity of service cannot be corrected by re-performance, the State may (1) require the contractor to take necessary action to ensure that the future performance conforms to contract requirements and (2) equitably reduce the payment due the contractor to reflect the reduced value of the services performed. These remedies in no way limit the remedies available to the State in the termination provisions of this contract, or remedies otherwise available at law. Contractor warrants that all supplies furnished under this contract shall be free from defects in materials or workmanship, are installed properly and in accordance with manufacturer recommendations or other industry standards, and will function in a failure-free manner for a period of one (1) year from the date of delivery or installation. Contractor shall, at its option, repair or replace any supplies that fail to satisfy this August 6, 2019 - Page 31 of 109 Intergovernmental Template Ver 22.4.19 Page 7 of 7 warranty during the warranty period. Additionally, Contractor agrees to assign to the State all written manufacturer warranties relating to the supplies and to deliver such written warranties to the State. 15. Adjustments in Price. Adjustments to contract prices are allowable only so long as they are mutually agreeable by the parties and so long as they are included within a contract amendment made prior to the effective date of the price adjustments and made pursuant to the State of Colorado Fiscal Rules, signed by the parties, and approved by the State Controller or designee. The Contractor shall provide cost or pricing data for any price adjustment subject to the provisions of the Cost or Pricing Data Section of the Colorado State Procurement Rules. Any adjustment in contract price pursuant to the application of a clause in this contract shall be made in one or more of the following ways: a. By agreement on a fixed-price adjustment; b. By unit prices specified in the contract; c. In such other manner as the parties may mutually agree; or d. In the absence of agreement between the parties, by a unilateral determination by the procurement officer of the costs attributable to the event or situation covered by the clause, plus appropriate profit or fee. 16. Contract Modifications. This contract is subject to such modifications as may be required by changes in Federal or State law, or their implementing regulations. Any such required modification shall automatically be incorporated into and be part of this contract on the effective date of such change as if fully set forth herein. If either the State or the Contractor desires to modify the terms and conditions of this Contract, then the parties shall execute a standard written amendment to this Contract initiated by the State. The standard written amendment must be executed and approved in accordance with all applicable laws and rules by all necessary parties including the State Controller or delegate. 17. Litigation. The Contractor shall within five (5) calendar days after being served with a summons, complaint, or other pleading which has been filed in any federal or state court or administrative agency notify the State that it is a party defendant in a case which involves services provided under this contract. The Contractor shall deliver copies of such document(s) to the State's Executive Director. The term "litigation" includes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, and filings in bankruptcy, reorganization and/or foreclosure. 18. Notice of Breach and Dispute Resolution: If the State or the Contractor believes in good faith that the other party has failed to timely complete a deliverable, or has otherwise committed a material breach of this Contract, then the non-breaching party shall notify the breaching party in writing of the alleged breach within ten (10) business days of: 1) the date of the alleged breach if the non-breaching party is aware of the breach at the time it occurs; or 2) the date that the non-breaching party becomes aware of the breach. Upon receipt of written notice of an alleged breach of the Contract, the breaching party shall have ten (10) business days, or such additional time as may be agreed to in writing between the parties, within which to cure the alleged breach or to notify the non-breaching party in writing of the breaching party’s belief that a material breach of this Contract has not occurred. Failure of the breaching party to cure or respond in writing within the above time period shall result in the non-breaching party being entitled to pursue any and all remedies available at law or in equity. Except as herein specifically provided otherwise, disputes concerning the performance of this contract which cannot be resolved by the designated contract representatives shall be referred in writing to a senior departmental management staff designated by the department and a senior manager designated by the Contractor. Failing resolution at that level, disputes shall be presented in writing to the Executive Director and the Contractor's chief executive officer for resolution. This process is not intended to supersede any other process for the resolution of controversies provided by law. The Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for any damage to the State resulting from the Contractor’s breach, whether or not the Contractor’s right to proceed with the work is terminated. The State reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine whether or not to accept substituted performance tendered by the Contractor or the Contractor’s sureties and acceptance is dependent upon completion of all applicable inspection procedures. August 6, 2019 - Page 32 of 109 Intergovernmental Template Ver 22.4.19 Page 8 of 8 19. Remedies: In addition to any other remedies provided for in this contract, and without limiting its remedies otherwise available at law, the State may exercise the following remedial actions if the Contractor substantially fails to satisfy or perform the duties and obligations in this contract. Substantial failure to satisfy the duties and obligations shall be defined to mean significant insufficient, incorrect or improper performance, activities, or inaction by the Contractor. Without limitation, these remedial actions include: a. withhold payment to Contractor until the necessary services or corrections in performance are satisfactorily completed; and/or b. require the vendor to take necessary action to ensure that the future performance conforms to contract requirements; and/or c. request the removal from work on the contract of employees or agents of Contractor whom the State justifies as being incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise unacceptable, or whose continued employment on the contract the State deems to be contrary to the public interest or not in the best interest of the State; and/or d. deny payment for those services or obligations which have not been performed and which due to circumstances caused by Contractor cannot be performed, or if performed would be of no value to the State; denial of the amount of payment must be reasonably related to the value of work or performance lost to the State; and/or e. suspend Contractor’s performance pending necessary corrective action as specified by the State without Contractor’s entitlement to adjustment in price/cost or schedule; and/or f. modify or recover payments (from payments under this contract or other contracts between the State and the vendor as a debt due to the State) to correct an error due to omission, error, fraud and/or defalcation; and/or g. terminate the contract. These remedies in no way limit the remedies available to the State in the termination provisions of this contract, or remedies otherwise available at law. 20. Termination. a. Termination for Default. The State may terminate the contract for cause. In the event this contract is terminated for cause, the State will only reimburse the Contractor for accepted work or deliverables received up to the date of termination. In the event this contract is terminated for cause, final payment to the Contractor may be withheld at the discretion of the State until completion of final audit. Notwithstanding the above, the Contractor shall not be relieved of liability to the State for any damages sustained by the State by virtue of any breach of the contract by the Contractor, and the State may withhold any payment to the Contractor for the purposes of mitigating its damages until such time as the exact amount of damages due to the State from the Contractor is determined. If it is determined that the Contractor was not in default then such termination shall be treated as a termination for convenience as described herein. In the event of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, studies, surveys, drawings, maps, models, photographs, and reports or other material prepared by the contractor under this contract shall, at the option of the State, become its property, and the Contractor shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any services and supplies delivered and accepted. The Contractor shall be obligated to return any payment advanced under the provisions of this contract. b. Termination for Convenience. The State shall have the right to terminate this contract at any time the State determines necessary by giving the Contractor at least twenty (20) calendar days prior written notice. If notice is so given, this contract shall terminate on the expiration of the specified time period, and the liability of the parties hereunder for further performance of the terms of this contract shall thereupon cease, but the parties shall not be released from the duty to perform their obligations up to the date of termination. In the event of termination, all finished or unfinished documents, data, studies, surveys, drawings, maps, models, photographs, and reports or other material prepared by the contractor under this contract shall, at the option of the State, become its property, and the Contractor shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any satisfactory services and supplies delivered. In the event that the State terminates this contract under the Termination for Convenience provisions, the Contractor is entitled to submit a termination claim within ten (10) days of the August 6, 2019 - Page 33 of 109 Intergovernmental Template Ver 22.4.19 Page 9 of 9 effective date of termination. The termination claim shall address and the State shall consider paying the following costs: I. the contract price for performance of work, which is accepted by the State, up to the effective date of the termination; II. reasonable and necessary costs incurred in preparing to perform the terminated portion of the contract; III. reasonable profit on the completed but undelivered work up to the date of termination; IV. the costs of settling claims arising out of the termination of subcontracts or orders, not to exceed 30 days pay for each subcontractor; V. reasonable accounting, legal, clerical, and other costs arising out of the termination settlement.

I. Entity Name: Town of Vail Project Description: The project serves to improve water quality in the Gore Creek Watershed, near Vail Colorado, by implementing and investigating the effectiveness of nonpoint source best management practices (BMPs) to reduce nonpoint source pollution of sediment, within the contract term. Nonpoint source pollution results from runoff carrying pollutants from diffuse sources into streams. The diffuse nature of entry of nonpoint source pollution makes it difficult to manage, thus leading to the need for implementation of BMPs. The project specific pollutant is sediment, which negatively affects macroinvertebrate habitat when the load level exceeds the water quality standard. Gore Creek is provisionally listed for macroinvertebrates on the 303(d) list of impaired waters, because the elevated sediment in the stream does not meet the aquatic life standard set by the Water Quality Control Commission. Implementing the BMPs will improve water quality and aquatic habitat for macroinvertebrates and fish species. II. Definitions: 1. BMPs - Best Management Practices - A practice or combination of practices, as determined by a responsible group after examination of alternative practices and appropriate public participation, to be the most effective, practicable means of preventing or reducing the amount of pollution from nonpoint sources to a level consistent with water quality standards and goals. BMPs can be both structural (e.g. construction of on-the-ground controls) and nonstructural (e.g. education programs). 2. CDPHE – Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment 3. EPA - Environmental Protection Agency 4. Macroinvertebrate Habitat - Aquatic macroinvertebrates live on, under, and around rocks and sediment on the bottoms of lakes, rivers, and streams. 5. MMI - (Multimetric Index – for macroinvertebrates) a numeric representation of biological or habitat conditions based on combined signals of many assemblage or physical measurements. Each measurement, or metric, is selected to be included in the index because it shows a consistent response along a known disturbance gradient. The combined index gives a reliable indication of biological or habitat integrity. 6. Nonpoint source pollution – pollution from many diffuse sources that is carried to waterbodies by rain or snowmelt 7. NPS – Nonpoint Source 8. NRCS – Natural Resources Conservation Service 9. SAP – Sampling and Analysis Project Plan - a plan intended to assist organizations in documenting the procedural and analytical requirements for one-time, or time limited, projects involving the collection of water, soil, sediment, or other samples taken to characterize areas of potential environmental contamination. It combines the basic elements of a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) and a Field Sampling Plan (FSP). 10. WQX: The Water Quality Exchange (WQX) is the mechanism for data partners to submit water monitoring data to EPA III.

Notwithstanding the maximum amount specified in this Section, Contractor shall be paid only for work performed.

The work and services to be performed by Contractor hereunder shall be done in compliance with applicable laws, ordinances, rules and regulations. C. The Town's review, approval or acceptance of, or payment for any services shall not be construed to operate as a waiver of any rights under this Agreement or of any cause of action arising out of the performance of this Agreement. D. Because the Town has hired Contractor for its professional expertise, Contractor agrees not to employ subcontractors to perform any work under the Scope of Services, except for those explicitly described in Exhibit A. V. OWNERSHIP Any materials, items, and work specified in the Scope of Services, and any and all related documentation and materials provided or developed by Contractor shall be exclusively owned by the Town. Contractor expressly acknowledges and agrees that all work performed under the Scope of Services constitutes a "work made for hire."

The Town may, with respect to all or any portion of such work, use, publish, display, reproduce, distribute, destroy, alter, retouch, modify, adapt, translate, or change such work without providing notice to or receiving consent from Contractor. VI. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR Contractor is an independent contractor. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all personnel assigned by Contractor to perform work under the terms of this Agreement shall be, and remain at all times, employees or agents of Contractor for all purposes.

BACKGROUND: Request approval from the Town Council to purchase up to 7 battery electric buses per the bus replacement plan. The TOV owns and operates 32 transit buses, the buses are on a 12 year replacement plan, which is consistent with FTA requirements that a transit bus be designed and operate for a minimum of 12 years. The two oldest buses are not on the replacement schedule and are used as backup buses. The bus replacement plan has seven buses to be replaced in 2020 that will be battery electric. After demoing many different vendors of battery electric buses our team would recommend that we purchase Gillig battery electric buses. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Town Manager to approve the purchase of up to 7, 40’ Gillig battery electric lowfloor buses and order the seven buses this year to take delivery in 2020. These funds are in the 5 year capital plan in 2020. ATTACHMENTS: Description Staff Memo August 6, 2019 - Page 67 of 109 TO: Vail Town Council FROM: Public Works Department DATE: August 6th, 2019 SUBJECT: Replace Transit Buses I. PURPOSE The purpose of this memo is to request approval from the Town Council to purchase up to 7 battery electric buses per the bus replacement plan, the TOV currently operates with 32 transit buses. II. BACKGROUND The TOV owns and operates 32 transit buses, the buses are on a 12 year replacement plan, which is consistent with FTA requirements that a transit bus be designed and operate for a minimum of 12 years. The current fleet of buses is: (2) 2006 Gillig 35’ buses (8) 2019 Gillig Low floor 40’ buses (7) 2018 Gillig Low floor 40’ buses (7) 2008 Gillig Low floor 40’ hybrid buses (6) 2011 Gillig Low floor 40’ buses (2) 2012 Gillig Low floor 40’ hybrid buses The two oldest buses are not on the replacement schedule and are used as backup buses, we will keep the 2006 Gillig’s as the backup buses. The current lead time to start a bus build is 14 months from the date of order. The bus replacement plan has seven buses to be replaced in 2020 that will be battery electric. After demoing many different vendors of battery electric buses our team would recommend that we purchase Gillig battery electric buses. This will allow the Town to keep driver options the same and have the bus drive very similar to what are drivers are used to. Also most of our spare parts inventory will transfer over to these new buses keeping inventory costs down. Gillig is using Cummins for their electric drive system. This means we will have support on this new technology in Denver and Grand Junction. The other bus manufacturers are either over seas or across the country. The Town already has a strong relationship with Cummins as 95% of our current diesel engines are Cummins. August 6, 2019 - Page 68 of 109 2   III. Vendor Selection   The budget for this project is $6,525,000 in 2020. The Town is utilizing pricing based on a joint procurement plan with a FTA approved State of Virginia contract. The price of each bus, based on the State of Virginia contract with adjustments made to meet TOV requirements is $859,465. For seven buses the total would be $6,016,255. The town currently has a grant for $525.287 for one bus. We are still awaiting a response on our final grant submittal. We would like to use the remaining $508,745 for the bus charges required to operate these buses. We would like to put a place holder on these charger funds and present to Council at a later date for approval. IV. ACTION REQUESTED Authorize the Town Manager to approve the purchase of up to 7, 40’ Gillig battery electric low floor buses and order the seven buses this year to take delivery in 2020. These funds are in the 5 year capital plan in 2020.
