File Number: 15-463 <br />Phase III - Final Scoring <br />• Labor and employment practices <br />• Environmental Plan (including efforts to minimize off-site impacts) <br />• Product safety & labeling <br />• Community benefits <br />Selection Phase <br />• Interviews / site visits / reference checks <br />November 3, 2014: City Council authorized the associated dispensary application fee <br />schedule. <br />December 15, 2014: A request for applications from parties interested in serving as San <br />Leandro's dispensary operator was released. <br />January 20, 2015: City Council amended the agreement with ICF because the scope of work <br />needed adjustment to better reflect anticipated project deliverables that were identified as the <br />process progressed. <br />The City received applications from 15 teams, each of whom submitted the required $3,000 <br />non-refundable application fee. City staff and ICF subsequently collaborated together to <br />review and score the 15 applications using the above -referenced Phase I & II criteria <br />(including a background investigation of each of the team members, which took nearly five <br />months for processing by the State Department of Justice). The 8 top -scoring teams were <br />subsequently invited to submit Phase III proposals, which also required the submittal of a <br />$7,000 application fee. A summary of the 8 teams that advanced to the third phase of the <br />application process, and their corresponding scores, is provided below: <br />Total Rank Aoolicant Name Phase II Score` <br />1 <br />Harborside San Leandro <br />2 <br />Magnolia Wellness Collective <br />3 <br />Davis Street Wellness Center <br />4 <br />VMK/Purple Lotus Patient Center <br />5 <br />Blum/SL Community Collective <br />6 <br />Morning Sun Cooperative <br />7 <br />Purple Heart Patient Center <br />8 <br />Box of Rain, Inc. <br />*Maximum possible score for Phase II = 650 points <br />**Maximum possible score for Phase III = 300 points <br />Phase III Score** <br />Total Score <br />615 <br />255 <br />870 <br />591 <br />245 <br />836 <br />556 <br />242 <br />798 <br />505 <br />245 <br />750 <br />482 <br />235 <br />717 <br />496 <br />220 <br />716 <br />456 <br />215 <br />671 <br />469 <br />182 <br />651 <br />Following the ranking and scoring of the Phase III proposals by City staff and ICF using the <br />Council -adopted criteria, the top six teams were invited for interviews with the City Manager's <br />inter -departmental stakeholder group.
