parking enforcement services provided by Serco were sold to LAZ Karp Associates. LAZ
performs the enforcement of street sweeping violations and enforcement of other

authorized by the Chief of Police. Under this agreement, LAZ provides Parking

miscellaneous supplies. Before they are deployed, LAZ employees must complete
training related to Police Department parking procedures, equipment, vehicle operations,
and traffic control. In addition, LAZ employees receive training in basic customer service,
including conflict resolution, handling difficult customers, and cultural diversity.
The original term of the agreement covered the two-year period of July 1, 2018, through
June 30, 2020. The first one year extension included an the amount of $705,553,
including a 10% contingency ($64,141), to fund these services for the period of July 1,
2020, through June 30, 2021. The funding for this extension will remain the same as the
previous amendment at $705,553, including a 10% contingency ($64,141) to fund these
services for the period of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. LAZ has been

THIRD AMENDMENT TO ENFORCEMENT SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH LAZ PARKING
THIS THIRD AMENDMENT to the above -referenced agreement is entered into on June 1,
2021, by and between LAZ Karp Associates, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company
("Consultant") and the City of Santa Ana, a charter city and municipal corporation organized and
existing under the Constitution and laws of the State of California ("City").
RFC 1TAL,q
A. On June 19, 2018, the City entered into Agreement No. A-2018-158 ("Agreement") with
SERCO, Inc., to provide parking control enforcement services for the City.
B. The Agreement was subsequently amended on August 21, 2018 (A-2018-222) to amend
selected terms and conditions to the Agreement. This was followed up by a Second
Amendment to the Agreement dated August 18, 2020 to increase the overall compensation
and clarify terms and conditions within the Agreement and the Scope of Work. SERCO and
the City also exercised the first of three one (1) year options to extend the Agreement on
June 10, 2020 (#A-2018-158-01) until June 30, 2021. The Agreement is current and in
effect.
C. On January 21, 2021, the City consented to a request from LAZ Karp Associates, LLC
("Consultant") to be assigned the duties and responsibilities related to the above referenced
Agreement, as amended (A-2020-169-01). Effective January 21, 2021, Consultant became a
party to this Agreement, as amended.
D. The parties now wish to further amend the Agreement to increase the overall compensation
reflective of Consumer Price Index ("CPI") increases. The parties will also exercise the second
option to extend the Agreement, as previously allowed under the terms of the Agreement, as
amended.
The Parties therefore agree:
1. Section 2, Compensation, is amended to increase the overall compensation for additional
services provided for the second extension to the Agreement, as detailed below. Additional
compensation, reflected by CPI increases, in the amount of $705,553.53, including a 10%
contingency ($64,141.23) for services to be provided at the sole discretion of the City, shall be
added to the not -to -exceed amount for the Agreement.
2. Section 3, Term. The parties agree to extend the term of the Agreement for an additional one
(1) year period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. A third and final one year option
remains available for the parties to exercise. No other changes are contemplated to this section.
3. Except as modified by this Third Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Agreement, as
amended, shall remain in full force and effect.
