CMR: 409:10
SUBJECT: Approval of Banking Services Contract Extension with Wells Fargo and
Union Bank for Three Years
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that Council approve extending banking services contracts with Wells Fargo
Bank (Attachments A) for three additional years. The contract would be effective from January
1, 2011 through December 31, 2013.
BACKGROUND
In 2005, the City conducted a Request for Proposal (RFP) process for banking services. After
reviewing the proposals from a number of banks, the City selected Wells Fargo (Wells) for
general banking services and Union Bank (Union) for custodial services (safekeeping of City
investments in securities). The selection of Wells ended a long-telm relationship with Bank of
America, the prior banking services provider. The agreement with Wells and Union consisted of
a three year contract plus an additional two years based on satisfactory performance which Wells
and Union has more than exceeded. The five year service contracts end December 31, 2010.
DISCUSSION
Staff is requesting that Council extend the existing contract with Wells for three additional years.
Because of the cost of the existing contract, where annual fees are now exceeding $117,000, City
policy requires City Council approval for a contract extension. Union Bank's fees are under the
threshold for Council approval, but for transparency purposes, staff is calling this contract to
Council's attention. It is important to note that the annual costs of the banking contracts depend
on the volume and mix of fees or services used, so annual costs must be estimated.
NOimally, a RFP would have been initiated by staff, but due to workload and other factors one
has not been conducted to date. Moreover, there are a series of important considerations that
prompt this request for extended Wells and Union contracts. These include:
• During the past six months, the City has worked toward and completed the outsourcing
of the Utility Payment (Bill) Processing activity. A cost benefit analysis was conducted
CMR: 409:10 Page 1 of3
for this operation and it showed solid savings for the Utilities. The savings primarily
resulted from not having to purchasc or lease a new process machine (capital cost was
between $120,000 to 180,000 plus an annual maintenance fee of around $30,000). This
project took considerable effort to implement because of information system and process
issues. By moving to another vendor much of the work and many of the system issues
. will be duplicated, thereby absorbing additional and significant resources.
• Wells service and teehnology have been excellent. While strict technology comparisons
with other vendors have not been made, periodic discussions with other vendors over the
past 5 years has led staff to believe that Wells' technology and process improvements
will be difficult to exceed. Wells' on-line portal offers simple, easy, and fast single point
of access for all cash management services (e.g., online security and fraud control, wires,
reports, data file transmission and reeeipts, self-administration tools). In addition to
Utility Payment (Bill) Processing, Wells has made improvements in Internet Bill Pay and
check and electronic fraud prevention. The City is also exploring adding Wells'
Commercial Card Expense Reporting (CCER) AP Control service.
• During the eeonomic downturn and the City's budget challenges, Wells was asked to
review their fee structure with the goal of reducing costs to the City. In June 2009,
Wells made fee or price concessions that reduced the City'S annual costs by an estimated
$8,000 or 10.8 percent. Wells guaranteed these priees, with one relatively minor
exception, through the end of their contract with the City or Deeember 31, 2010.
• In preparation for a recommendation to Council, staff contacted Wells Fargo to
determine if further and future pricing concessions could be provided. Wells has agreed
to reduce fees resulting in estimated annual savings of $15,500. Attachment A shows
the new and lower fees oi1ered by Wells Fargo which would take effect January 1,2011
and stay fixed until December 31, 2013.
o Implementing a change in banking service vendors takes slaff and the vendor nearly 4-6
months to implement. Approximately, a dozen staff members would be engaged in this
time consuming process reducing their ability to tend to other City business.
With the outsourcing of Utility Bill Processing operations, annual fees are estimated at around
$117,000 (previous annual fees were around $75,000). While this is not a small expenditure,
staff believes the contract with Wells is eompetitive and serves the City's long-telm interests in
efficient and effcctivc service and in further automating manual time consuming processes. On
an annual basis, Wells' proposal in the 2005 RFP was lower by approximately $18,600 or 10
percent compared to the second least expensive vendor.
Staff will be also entering into a new contract with Union for custodial services for City
investments. Per City policy, Council action is not required for Union's contract (less then
$85,000 and not greater than three years). Since the custodial services has been and wi![ remain part
of the future banking services RFP, the new Union contract will be for the samc duration as the
Council selects for the banking services contract. In the 2005 RFP process no vendor could
approach the low cost service Union provides. Union's fees to the City have not changed in the
last twelve years and annual costs are arOlmd $5,700. Union has made price concessions for the
new contract that will reduce the City's annual costs by an estimated $668 or 11.7 pereent.
CMR:409:10 Page200
Union has guaranteed to fix these lower rates for the duration of the new contract or through
December 31, 2013. Thc City holds some 168 federal agency and other securities with Union
with an estimated 65 securities maturing each year. This service is extraordinarily cost effective.
In conclusion, staff recommends that Council extend the Wells banking services contract for
three more years. At the end of whatever extension Council approves, staff will conduct a
formal RFP process for banking and custodial services. At this time, staff believes that
continuity in banking services is in the City's best financial and service interests.
RESOURCE IMPACT
The estimated annual cost for regular banking services is $117,000 and for custodial services is
$5,000. Funds for these services have been appropriated in the City's budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This is not a projcet for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act.

The City of Palo Alto has been a valued Wells Fargo Bank client
since 2005. In appreciation of this, I would like to offer the

found in the enclosed attachment, along with all the City's

last year. The city may terminate this agreement at its
convenience and without cause upon thirty (30) days written
notice to the Bank.
Please acknowledge acceptance of these terms by signing and

E. ACCOUNT RECONCIlEMENT
1. Does the Sank offer Positive Pay services? Describe the data transmission process? Online transmission method prelerred. .
Yes, Full Account Reconcilement with Positive Pay service is available and recommended. To utilize Full Account
Reconcilement, you would provide us with daily check issuance informalion, which we compare to your updat~d, paid check
detail. You receive a fully reconciled account statement with a listing of checks still outstanding, exception items and a
transmission of paid items to automatically update your accounts payable system. Check register information may be sent via
data transmission: mainframe to mainframe, PC to mainframe or VAN to mainframe. The input file can be sent via an Async
or Bisync data transmission or Secure File Transport, Manual check registers may also be input and uploaded to the bank
online through CEO.
Posilive Pay works in conjunction with our Full Account Reconcilement Service. Wells Fargo uploads your check issue
information throughout the day into our Account Reconciliation Service system for teller access. (Wells Fargds Positive Pay
service is unique in that check issue information is linked to our teller workstations. Checks presented for encashment can be
verified before payment is made.) Wells Fargo electronically col)'ipares this check issue information to the data captured from
the MICR line of checks presented for payment each day. If the serial number, dollar amount and optionally, payee name
match exaclly, checks are considered paid and Wells Fargo makes no further examination of the checks. An exception
report is created of unmatched items for your account. The City will need to review this report daily and make a payor no pay
decision prior to the established deadline.
Positive Pay Offers Two Versions:
t Basic Positive Pay allows you to review, make on·the·spot corrections and create register entries for all exception items
before fihaf payment occurs.
t Positive Pay includes everything in Basic Positive Pay above with the added conve~ience of receiving only true "issue
notice not received" exceptions. Under this. option, Wells Fargo will correct all encoding errors prior to sending the
exception report; this means that only checks without a register on file at the bank are included on your exception report
for your review. II the serial number and dollar amount of a presented check match your iss,ue file exaclly, the check is
automatically paid. Using our Intemet portal to review your exception report, one click of a button will allow you to view an
image of the exception item to help you make a pay/no pay decision.
Payee Validation: This service allows payee validation on checks cashed at the teller line and on checks written by the City
that are processed through the check clearing system. Tellers are able to validate the payee name on the presented check to
the payee name on your issue file prior to encashment. This means that iJ an item with an unmatched payee name is
presented for encashment, it witl be idenlilied before cash is paid out, helping to reduce potential payee alteration fraud
activity on your account. This service requires Ihat you include payee name in the register file that is transmitted to the bank.
For checks that are processed through the check clearing system, we validate the payee name and report any exceptions to
the City on your daily exception report.
2. Does the bank offer Truncated check services? In addition, does the bank offer a CD-ROM imaging service? II yes, describe
service(s). tnctude a description 01 the bank software lor reading the CD-ROM and when (monthty) will the City receive the CD'
ROM?
Yes, we offer truncated check services -CheXstor is a check storage and retrieval service that eliminates the need for you to
handle and store cancelled checks at the City. Instead of returning your checks, Weljs Fargo keeps microfilm~mage copies of
the checks and retrieves check information or photocopies when you need them. Check images can be accessed online
through CEO the next business day after posting to the City's accounts and will be avaitable for viewing online for 90 days
thereafter. Photocopy requests for older checks may be initiated through our on-line CEO service or by calling Cash
Management Client Services. Copies are normally mailed/e-maited within 24 hours after the receipt of your request.
Yes, CO·ROM imaging service is available. The Wellslmage service provides a CD-ROM of paid check images. Each CD
contains up to 30,000 check images (front and back) delivered weekly, monthly or on a fiscat calendar. You also receive
Wells Image Vision TM, our proprietary viewing software that gives you powerlul search, viewing and image management
capabilities. You will receive your CD-ROM within 7 to 10 business days of your CD cycle cutoff.

CITY OF PALO ALTO
. 1 BANKCARD PRoelSSINO
1. Describe the bank's Bankcard and Polnt-of·Sale processing capabilities.
Wells Fargo Merchant Services {WFMS) can fully support Bankcard, non-bankcard, ontine and offline debit, check guarantee, electronic
check conversion and stored vatue cards. These payment methods can be processed on a variely of point·ol-sate-terminals, software,
internet or telephone interfaces_ WFMS currently has a 'Master Service Agreement with Ihe State ot Cailiomia lor payment processing,
Additionally, WFMS has state processing contracts in Ulah, Colorado, New Mexico and Iowa. .
2. What authorization methods do you support and which do you recommend?
WFMS supports many authorization methods, such as, dial, internel, lease line, Irame relay, ISDN and IPN. WFMS recommends Ihallhe
Cily use EDC via dial-up ~ansmission for retail processing. This can be accomplished with dedicated terminals or PC-based processing
software such as ICVerily. We are a market leader in alleroative paymenl processes. We can combine web, telephone, telephone
interactive voice response, kiosks and face-to-face processing on an inlegrated payments platlorm. WFMS can also support the collection
of conveniimce fees to offset Ihe cost 01 paymenl processing.
3. Please quote a discount rate and all olher applicable charges for the credit card processing described above. Quote rates for
both swiped and no·swlped transactions. '
WFMS has a Master Service Agreement with the Slate 01 Galilornia for eleotronic payment processing. WFMS will extend'lhe Slate's
lavorable pricing, terms and conditions to the City of Palo Alto. This pricing is on a "Cost Plus· basis. At the eslimated average transaction
amount of $100, the WFMS fee and Association assessmenls would be _23% 01 the transaction amoonl. As examples, the cosl lor Visa
card present transactions and card not present transacttons, wilh an approximate average transaction amount of $2.00, would be:
The total fee would be $3.38, lor a total overall effective rale 01 1.69%. Please see other examples In the Pricing Examples aftached at the
end of this seclion. All examples are priced using a Wells Fargo processing plaHorm. Third party processing plaHorms are generally more
expensive. Please see lhe prlclng exhibit attached at the end ollhis seclion lor the State of California Pricing. Please see the Visa aod
MasterCard Interchange Tables for all rates and qualilying criteria. Please contact Discover and American Express directly lor their lee
structure or WFMS can assist in establishing the entillemenls.
4. What are Ihe fees associated with debit card transactions?
Debit fees are calculated on a cosl plus basis, WFMS will directly pass Ihe lowest qualilying debit network lees plus the WFMS lee 01 $.08
par b'ansaction. Please see tlla attached pricing exhibit for the Stale 01 California Pricing.
5_ How is the applICable interchange fee determined lor each lransaclion? What does the bank recommend to minimize
Interchange lees?
The unde~ying interchange Irom the card association is passed directly to the City and WFMS assesses a processing lee to cover costs,
Each Iransaclion will clear al the lowest qualifying interchange rate. The WFMS fee remains the same, regardtess ot the undenying
interchange. There are no downgrade fees or billbacks. This pricing methodology allows the CIIy to benelillrom Ihe various public sector
interchange rates available.
IntelChange fees can be minimized several ways. Most importantly, by having all processing accounts sel up correctly with appropriate
supporting hardware and/or software. Nexl, association aulhorillltkln and seUlemenl rules must be followed for Iransactions to clear at the
lowest possllJle interchange rate. WFMS with provide Ihe Cily with the currenl bankcard interchange rates and quaHlicationmatrices.
Additionally, WFMS, through Relalionship Management will monilor and advise Ihe Cily on processing effICiently 10 minimize interchange
lees.
6. When and how are the discount rate and other fees charged 'the City? Can this fee be paid through account analysis?
Discounl fees and charges afe deb~ed once per monlh and can be debited from Ihe main merchanl processing checking account or a
separate checking account. Merchant processing lees are generally nol paid through accounl analysis. This is due to Ihe fact thai the
majorily of the lees are passed directly 10 Ihe bankcard associalions for interchange fees and assessments.
Gerierally, merchant proceSSing fees are not paid through analysis. The cosl of the service is primarily the Visa and MasterCard
interchange lees and assessments. which are passed direclly 10 Ihe card associations.
CITY OF PALO ALTO
7. Describe your reporting methodology and how adjustments and charge backs are handled. Are charge backs and other debit
adjustments netted from daily process or debited separately? Is the discount fee refunded when a charge back or refund
occurs?
WFMS provides mooIhly paper slalemanls and, under the State of California oonlrac~ fee·tree access to a secure, internet·based,
reportng tool. MyMerchantVlew.net is a secure, easy·to·use Internet·based selVice that provides access to transaction data for in-depth
research, rcllieval and chargeback hislory and statislics, non·compliance statistics lor managing Interchange qualifications and a host of
other financial data to help rnerchants manage Iheir credit card activUy. The myrnercharitview.net service allows the Cily to view repol1s in
a variety of formals and export daJa to Excel spreadSheets Ihat can be manipulated or further loaded to a variety of database and
accounting software programs, For a guided tour visll our Webslle at hllp:llmymerchanlyiew,nel.
Chargebacks are normal~ sepaJllle debits and can be debited to a separale account as long as the ABA is the same, The discount lee is
not relunded when a charge back or refund occurs, The Chargeback proeess is initiated wllh a Relrieval Request. Retrieval requesls are
received by WFMs lrom card ISSUing banks through Ihe interchange process, Retrieval requests are loaded 10 the retrieval syslems on Ihe
day !he Iile is receivad, If WFMS dces not receive a response to a retrievat request, a second request is sent as a reminder 10 the
mercflant. Follow up calls are atso made on lIems over $100.00, Addilionally, WFMS responds to mail and telephone order transactions
and retail retrieval requests where the reason code lor !he chargeback does not require a signature or Is not fraud related with substitute
drails. This beneli,ts !he m6lchant in severai ways because the merchant does not spend time searching lor drafts and avoids many latal
'non-receipt" chargebacks.
Merchant responses that are'feturned via lax go Ihrough a robust fax server gateway and are presented to our retrievatteam as images
that are then processed quickly and eflicienlly through our relrieval system. This fax gateway retains an archive of all images recnived lor
research and validation purposes, VaUd retrieval responses ale processed Ihrough our systems within three days 01 receipt, Sabstilute
drafts are processed on the day the retrieval team receives Ihe draH. Our Positive Chargeback Defense group monitors retrieval reque~ts
and, in many cases, responds without the msrchant's involvement.
6. When and how will the City receive lunds lor each day's transaclions? Are settlement amounts listed separately on the bank
statement or will they appear as one tump sum? Will the bank break out seUlement amounts by merchant location?
Funds availabmty for bankcards is next day, when deposited to a Welts Fargo business checking account. Deposits 10 non-Wells Fargo
acoounls generally incur a tunding delay due to the interbank transler and Ihe specllic financial institution's funds availability policy, Non·
bankcard funding depends on Ihe contractuat arrangement that the City maintains with the spacinc card issuer, WFMS can assisl
merchants in establishing or reviewing these arrangements, The settlement Iransmission timeframe, for diat terminal based processing, lor
Visa, MasterCard, Discovar, American Express, Diners and JCB is 1100 p.m, PT. Settlement times for olher transmission methodotogles
vary, WFMS operates on a 2417/365 schedule for transmission acceptance. SeUtement is generally made by ACH,
Settlement deposil accounts can be listed separatety by batch. by loeatico or rolled up, Detailed seHiement reporting is available,
Weekend settlement amounts are broken oul into daily detail lor Saturday and Sanday. Detailed settlement Inlormalion is available daily
through our secured online reporling slle, hllp:llmymerchantview,nel. There is a demonstration 01 the site's repOl1ing capabilities on Ihe
website.
9. The City currenlly owns and leases ils credit card terminals and printers. Can this be reprogrammed to process transactions
through your bank? If not, can the bank supply the City with the terminals, printers, and pin pads, and if so, what is the cost to
lease or purchase the requisite equipment?
Wells Fargo offers payrnent sotutions thai can be processed on a variety' of point-ol-salo terminals, software, internet or telephone
interlaces. WFMS can process using the IC Verity point·ol·sale software currently in use by Ihe Revenue Collections department. We will
consull with the City 01 Palo Allo and lhe various'depal1ments to determine Ihe best customer intartace to meet deparlmenJaI needs.
WFMS can reprogram most nonproprieJary pOint-ol-sale terminals 10 process on one or more of ils plaHorms, If the City must purchase,
rent or lease equipmenl, WFMS would extend the State 01 CaIHornia equipment pricing and public sector softWare or hosted solullon
pricing.
10. fs Ibe' bankcard retationshlp managed by a separate unit of the bank, 'or by the Account Relationship Manager? Please brklfly
describe the structure of this area. '
The bankcard relationship will be managed by a specifically assigned Relationship Manager. The WFMS RM will partner with the overall

Addendum to
'Wells Fargo Bank, N. A. Commercial Account Agreement
This Addendum is effective ,2004. It amends the Wells Fargo
Bank, N. A. Commercial Account Agreement ("Agreement'). All tenns defined in the
Agreement have the same meaning when used in tliis Addendum. If there is a conflict between
this Addendum and the Agreement, this Addendum will control. Except as expressly amended
by this Addendum, the Agreement remains in full force and effect.
The text of the Section titled "Stop Payment Orders; Notices of Post Dating" is deleted in its
entirety and replaced witb the followiog:
"Stop payment order" refers to both an order to Bank not to pay a paper Item and
to a notice of postdating. To be effective, a stop payment order must be received
i1) a time and manner that gives Bank a reasonable opportunity t.o act on it before
paying, accepting,' certifying, cashing or otbenvise becoming obligated to pay
Company's paper Item as provided in tbeUnifonn Commercial Code. Each stop
payment order is subject to Bank's verification that tbe paper Item described in
the order has not been paid. This verification may occur subsequent to tbe time
.B ank accepts the stop paymeut order. Bank requires the exact name of the payee,
Company's account number, .paper Item amount and the paper Item number or a
rallge of paper Item numbers. All oithe infonnation must be correct in order for·
Bank to stop payment of a paper Item. Company agrees to indemnify and hold
Bank hannJess from and against any loss or liability incurred by Bank as a result
of Bank's paying a paper Item if any of the infonnation provided in the stop
payment order is incorrect or incomplete (or as a result of Bank's not paying a
paper Item for which a valid stop payment order is in effect.) Bank may, at its
sale discretion, use only a portion of the TelJuired infonnation in order to identify
a paper Item. Bank need not honor a written stop payment order for more than six
(6) months. For accounts that do not have Bank's STOP RENEWAL Service,
Company must renew its stop payment order if it does not want the stop payment
. order to expire. Each renewal is· treated as a new stop payment order. For
accounts with Bank's STOP RENEWAL Service, a stop payment order is subject
to annual renewals for up to six (6) twelve-month periods, unless Company has
otherwise notified Bank. If Bank pays a paper Item over a valid stop payment
order, Bank may require infonnation regarding the underlying transaction for
which the paper Item was issued including without·limitation proof that Company
does not owe the money to the payee of the paper Item prior to making any
decision regarding re-crediting Company's account. Bank may pay a paper Item
after a stop payment order has expired, even though the paper Item is more than
six (6) months old. Company acknowledges that, notwithstanding Bank's timel)'
return of any paper Item due to a valid stop payment order, Compan)! may remain
liable under applicable law for the amount of that paper Item. An instruction to
... _r~".~.e .. ~t()P'Jl.11_YJ11en~..order_!!.1tlst be.Eeceive:~ _in __ a _!i~e .a~_d manner that gives
Bank a reasonable opportunity to act on it. If Bank ie~credits -Company's accoUnt'
after paying a post-dated paper Item over a valid and timely notice of post-dating,
Bank may charge Company's account for the amount 0fthe post-dated paper Item'
