A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO
CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING THE WAIVER OF THE
FORMAL BIDDING PROCESS FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR
ARCHITECTUAL DESIGN SERVICES FOR THE RENOVATION OF THE
RANCHO CUCAMONGA POLICE HEADQUARTERS AND AWARD OF
AMENDMENT NO. 001 TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
AGREEMENT WITH MARY MCGRATH ARCHITECTS
WHEREAS, Section 3.08.070 of the Municipal Code exempts professional services from formal
bidding procedures; and
WHEREAS, on June 7, 2017, Resolution No. 17-042 established updated procurement authority
and policy limits for City personnel and specified that professional services $100,000 and over require a
formal bidding process; and
WHEREAS,the City of Rancho Cucamonga has contracted with the San Bernardino County Sheriff
Department for law enforcement services since incorporation in 1977. Over the years, the City has
continued to increase staffing levels while also supplementing basic patrol and investigation with a number
of enhanced community policing programs. Since 1977, staffing levels have increased from 45 total
personnel to a current 188 total personnel. Currently, 158 of the total 188 Sheriff personnel are assigned
to the Rancho Cucamonga Police Headquarters; and
WHEREAS, the Rancho Cucamonga Police Headquarters has exceeded the original design
parameters of the facility. Due to the current Sheriff staffing levels and anticipated future increases in
staffing levels within the City, there is an expedited need for renovation and expansion of Police
Headquarters; and
WHEREAS, in November 2024, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Mary
McGrath Architects for design services for the renovation and expansion of the Rancho Cucamonga Police
Headquarters. In December 2025, Mary McGrath Architects completed conceptual design documents for
the project; and
WHEREAS, Staff has determined the need to move forward with the next phase of architectural
design services in order to finalize construction documents and go out to bid in Fall 2026 for the renovation
and expansion of Police Headquarters. Mary McGrath Architects has provided a proposal for full design
services for the project utilizing the approved conceptual design documents as the basis for the
development of the construction documents; and
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, HEREBY
RESOLVES:
1. Approve amendment No. 001 to the Professional Services Agreement with Mary McGrath
Architects in the amount of $399,080 for completion of as-build documents, construction
documents, bidding, and construction support/closeout for Police Headquarters.
2. Waive the formal bidding process for professional services required by Resolution No. 17-
042 for architectural design services for the renovation and expansion of Police
Headquarters. A formal bidding process would not result in additional cost savings and
would unnecessarily delay the project because Mart McGrath Architects is familiar with the
proposed facilities based upon her work on the conceptual design concepts.
