The City of Palo Alto ("City"), a municipal utility and a chartered city, is a member of the Northern California Power Agency ("NCPA"). B. In 2003, Palo Alto, along with two other NCPA members, the Cities of Alameda and Santa Clara, formed the Bay Area Municipal Transmission Group ("BAMx") and requested that NCPA provide professional consulting services related to electric transmission, power generation, regulatory issues, and electric market design issues affecting the BAMx members. C. Since 2003, NCPA has contracted with Flynn Resource Consultants, Inc. ("Flynn RCI") to provide these consulting services to the BAMx members. D. The current contract between NCPA and Flynn RCI expires on June 30, 2015 and, following a Request for Proposal, NCPA selected Flynn RCI to continue to provide these consulting services for Fiscal Year (FY) 2016. E. In 2015, the City of Oakland, acting by and through its Board of Port Commissioners (the "Port of Oakland") expressed a desire to join BAMx, and the BAMx members desired to add the Port of Oakland to their membership (hereinafter, references to "BAMx" include the Port of Oakland). F. For consulting agreements executed by NCPA on behalf of one, or a subset of, NCPA members, NCPA requires that those members enter into a Professional Services Agreement with NCPA. G. The Professional Services Agreement between the BAMx members and NCPA specifies the terms and conditions under which NCPA will procure the requested professional consulting services from Flynn RCI and allocate charges between the BAMx members. The Council of the City of Palo Alto RESOLVES as follows: SECTION 1. The Council authorizes the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the Professional Services Agreement between the Northern California Power Agency and the Cities of Alameda, Palo Alto and Santa Clara and the Port of Oakland for Electric Transmission, 050610sdl60513684 1 DocuSign Envelope ID: 49E864C3-EAF6-4A6D-83C9-E28B7472F5CB Generation, and Regulatory Consulting services, in an amount not to exceed $162,548 for Palo Alto's share for the one year contract term. SECTION 2. The Council finds that funds to cover the City's share of the Flynn RCI contract shall be allocated in the Electric Fund's proposed budget for FY 2016. SECTION 3. The Council finds that the adoption of this resolution does not require review under the California Environmental Quality Act, because it does not meet Public Resources Code Section 21065's definition of a "project".
