TITLE: PURCHASE OF ONE (1) RARITAN KVM SWITCH WITH 5 YEARS OF
SUPPORT.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and authorize the City Manager to issue a Purchase Order to GovConnection,
Inc. for the purchase of one (1) Raritan KVM Switch with 5 years of support in the not -
to-exceed amount of $17,548.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There are sufficient appropriated funds in the FY24 -25 budget for this expenditure.
BACKGROUND:
The daily operations of the City rely on the use of computers, specialized networks, and
associated hardware and software to create, process, and store digital information and
communicate with the public. To ensure the City’s essential information systems
infrastructure remains in place, it is proposed that the Raritan KVM switch be replaced.
This KVM switch, which is an essential component that provides keyboard, video and
mouse (KVM) functionality to the City’s network servers, has outlived its useful life and
has been scheduled for replacement.
DISCUSSION:
As required by the purchasing ordinance, the City solicited bids through the Planet Bids
website for a new KVM switch with media dongles as well as five years of support.
Eight vendors submitted bids, including:

Alpine Technologies LLC $17,949.80
Mvation Worldwide Inc $18,320.06

Upon review of these bids, staff has determined that GovConnection, Inc is the most
responsible bidder, meeting all technical requirements with the lowest price. While this
particular purchase falls under the City Manager’s spending authority, the City has
made separate year-to-date purchases with this vendor that cumulatively exceed the
$45,000 threshold when combined with the recommendation in this report. Therefore,
this purchase must be approved by the City Council.

TITLE: PUBLIC FINANCING AUTHORITY TREASURER'S STATEMENT.
STRATEGIC
GOAL:
Responsible Stewardship of Public Resources
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Annual Public Financing Authority Treasurer's Statement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
In 2002, the City of Diamond Bar (City), through the Public Financing Authority
(Authority), issued Variable Rate Lease Revenue Bonds in the principal amount of
$13,755,000 for the purpose of building the Diamond Bar Center. In December 2011,
the City, through the Authority, refinanced and converted the outstanding principal
amount of $11,790,000 to Fixed Rate Lease Revenue Bonds. On June 9, 2021, the
City, through the Authority, refunded the outstanding principal of $7,839,851 on the
2011 bonds and issued new Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2021 Series A, with a
principal amount of $6,735,000, generating an average annual savings of $144,700
through the remaining term ending June 1, 2033. The fixed interest rate paid to the
bondholders through this period is 4%. As of October 31, 2024, the outstanding
principal amount of the 2021 Bonds was $5,335,000.
The Authority bank account which reflects the principal and interest payment activities is
included in this Treasurer’s Statement. Although the Authority’s fund has been
incorporated into the City’s monthly Treasurer’s Statement presented to the City
Council, a separate annual Treasurer’s Statement has been prepared herein for review
D.2
Packet Pg. 32
and approval by the Authority. This statement shows the cash and equivalent balance
with the fiscal agent/trustee (US Bank).
The 2021 Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds, 2021 Series A were rated AA+ by
Standard & Poor’s Global Ratings. This rating remains unchanged.
