Adjourned at 4:24 PM Tracy Weaver, City Clerk 2 Page 15 of 266 City of El Segundo 2023 Strategic Plan Update Workshop — Draft Report The City of El Segundo operates under a City Council/City Manager form of government. The City Council consists of five (5) Council Members. The members of the City Council set policy and enact laws of the City. The City Manager is appointed by the members of the El Segundo City Council. The purpose of the Strategic Planning Workshop conducted on May 161h, 2023, was to assist the City of El Segundo's Mayor, City Council and City Manager by facilitating a process in which to update the City's existing multi -year Strategic Plan. One of the primary responsibilities of the City Manager is to implement the plan set forth by the City Council, utilizing the City Departments and Executive Team. In this regard, it is imperative that staff receive regular feedback from the City Council relative to changing and/or new priorities, and that the City Council receive updates from the staff relative to progress made on the existing priorities. The previous update to the Strategic Plan was conducted on April 12th, 2022 which resulted in ten (10) priority items (strategies) selected from the City's established five (5) broad goals. In preparation for the workshop, the facilitator conducted individual interviews with the Mayor, City Council, and Executive Team utilizing pre -planned questions as part of an environmental scan exercise. The results were summarized and presented during the workshop in which to highlight areas of consensus between the Mayor, City Council, and Executive Team, as well as to affirm a high degree of alignment with the current Strategic Plan goals and strategies. The workshop took place on Tuesday, May 16th from 1:00 p.m. until approximately 4:30 p.m. During the workshop, the City Council engaged in a participatory process along with staff and input from the community, in which they accomplished the following: 1. Established expectations for the workshop and intended outcomes. 2. Reaffirmed the established five (5) major goals. 3. Received staff updates on each of the existing fifty-one (51) strategies. 4. Participated in the three "C's" exercise: a. Closed out completed strategies b. Carried forward strategies still in progress c. Created new strategies 5. Participated in a voting (dot) exercise in which ten (10) new priorities were established for the 2023/24 fiscal year. 6. Referred the development of the detailed action plans and schedule to the City Manager and Executive Team. As a result of the above process, the City of El Segundo's 2023/24 Strategic Plan Update includes a total of five (5) goals, and thirty-six (36) strategies of which ten (10) were identified as top priorities for the upcoming fiscal year. It is noted that through the process, the Mayor and City 5/26/2023 HR Dynamics & Performance Management, Inc. 4 Page 16 of 266 City of El Segundo 2023 Strategic Plan Update Workshop — Draft Report Council closed out a total of nineteen (19) strategies as a result of staff updates and satisfactory completion of the tasks. At the conclusion of the workshop, the Mayor and City Council had effectively established clear direction and focus for the Executive Team related to top priorities for Fiscal Year 2023-24. The Mayor and City Council clearly communicated its desire and intent to blend this exercise along with a review of currently available financial resources, or potential new resources related to funding additional programs and services; and the necessary actions/steps to achieve the priorities along with timelines and individuals responsible. It was further intended that this plan remain a fluid and evolving document to be re -visited at regular intervals for progress and re - shifting of priorities, as needed. Attached to this summary are the detailed action plans prepared by staff, to be presented back to the City Council by the City Manager as a further step in the process to ensure that plans and timelines meet with the intended expectations. It should be noted that some of the goals identified may translate into resource needs that may be incorporated into future budgets. It is recommended that the City of El Segundo continue with its "best practice" in conducting regular annual workshops to review progress, and to identify new or shifting priorities. We would like to thank the Mayor, City Council and City Manager Darrell George, for the opportunity to assist the City of El Segundo in this important endeavor, and for the outstanding teamwork that provided for a positive and productive day. We look forward to the opportunity to partner with the City of El Segundo in the future. Respectfully, Henry Garcia Henry T. Garcia, Principal Consultant DYNAMICS&mPERFORMANCEmMANA mEMmEN_.......

Spot purchasing consists of shopping around each time fuel is needed and purchasing fuel from the lowest priced vendor. This type of purchasing usually occurs when the fuel market is volatile, as it has been for the last three years. During periods of stability, agencies enter into long-term fuel contracts. Pricing under long-term contact is tied to a published fuel price baseline plus a markup. The volatility in the market has forced vendors to significantly raise this markup, making long-term contracts unattractive. Under the City's last long-term contract through Los Angeles Metropolitan Public Purchasing Agents' Cooperative (LAMPPAC), there was virtually no markup. When that contract expired in September 2005, the fuel market was quite volatile and City Council authorized staff to purchase gasoline and diesel fuel through the use of spot market purchases. Many agencies, including Cities of Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach and Hawthorne have opted to purchase fuel through spot purchases in lieu of entering into long-term contracts since the expiration of the LAMPPAC contract. Staff continuously monitors Page 45 of 266 June 20, 2023 Page 10 of 11 long-term contracts available in the industry. Pursuant to El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC) § 1-7-10, relating to purchases and supplies, the City Council may at any time, by a majority vote and without amending the ESMC, waive purchasing procedures or alter proceedings to fit a specific purchase, when the waiver is not in violation of State law. Spot purchasing is the sort of modified purchasing arrangement that requires such a waiver by Council. It is possible that the total of purchases from any one vendor may exceed $50,000; therefore, Council approval of spot purchasing is requested. The City is budgeting $254,500 for Fiscal Year 2023-24 in accounts: 001-400-4601-5215 General Fund $190,000 109-400-3105-5215 Police - Asset Forfeiture Fund $ 13,000 112-400-5292-5215 Prop "A" Fund $ 30,000 501-400-7102-5215 Water Enterprise Fund $ 12,500 502-400-4301-5215 Wastewater Enterprise Fund $ 9,000 Total $254,500 #9 - Charles Abbott Associates Inc. Charles Abbott Associates Inc. has been providing solid waste and recycling compliance support services for Public Works Department on an annual basis since 2020.

Attempts to solicit these same services from other vendors have been unsuccessful as the vendors either do not carry the chemicals needed, have long delivery delays, or are not interested in providing services for the City.

No additional appropriation is Page 50 of 266 Appropriating Grant Awards June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 requested. Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant New grant revenue of $37,912.46 (received on February 18, 2023) - Revenue Account: 125-300-3101-3777 New appropriations of $37,912.46 - Expense Account: 125-400-3101-3777 BACKGROUND: USDOJ BVP Program Grant The Bulletproof Vest Partnership (BVP) Grant Act of 1998 is a unique U.S. Department of Justice initiative designed to provide a critical resource to state and local law enforcement. The BVP program's purpose is to reimburse state and local law enforcement up to fifty percent of body armor costs. ESPD has been participating in the BVP Grant Program since 1999. The United States Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs and Bureau of Justice Assistance has awarded the Police Department a BVP grant in the amount of $4,765.56. The grant will reimburse the City of El Segundo fifty percent of the cost for each ballistic vest purchased between April 1, 2022, and August 31, 2024, or until all funds have been requested. Awards will not be extended past that date, and any unused funds will be forfeited. Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant Per the BSCC, this disbursement is being made in accordance with Assembly Bill 178, Chapter 45, Statues of 2022, Item 5227-121-0001. This funding is available to all city and county law enforcement agencies employing officers described in Section 830.1 of the Penal Code. The Officer Wellness grant is for the purpose of improving officer wellness and expanding mental health sources as follows- 1 . Establishing officer wellness units or expanding existing officer wellness units. 2. Establishing peer support units or expanding peer support units. 3. Services provided by a licensed mental health professional, counselor, or other professional that works with law enforcement. 4. Expanding multiagency mutual aid programs focused on officer wellness and mental health. 5. Other programs or services that are evidence based or have a successful track record of enhancing officer wellness. All eligible law enforcement agencies received payment in February 2023. The grant period is from January 1, 2023, to October 31, 2024, or until all funds have been exhausted. Awards will not be extended past that date, and any unused funds will be returned to BSCC. Page 51 of 266 Appropriating Grant Awards June 20, 2023 Page 3 of 3 DISCUSSION: The ESPD Policy Manual section 1011 compels all uniformed officers to wear a ballistic vest when the officer begins service at ESPD. The life span of a ballistic vest is five years. After a five-year period, all ballistic vests must be replaced as soon as reasonably possible. The Police Department anticipates purchasing approximately twelve ballistic vests during this award period and the expense will be approximately $9,500. Under this grant, the Department of Justice will reimburse the City of El Segundo fifty percent of this cost, up to the grant award of $4,765.56. Ballistic vests have been proven to save lives. The Chief of Police will continue to require officers to maintain this equipment in good working order and use the equipment consistent with the department policy and sound officer safety practice. The Officer Wellness and Mental Health Grant focuses on wellness and peer support units. ESPD has a Health and Wellness Program comprised of four officers and a Peer Support Group comprised of nine police personnel. With these funds we can expand both units and use their expertise to brainstorm ideas on how best to move forward with the expenditure of funds. BSCC plans on hosting webinars for further guidance on reporting guidelines and reporting requirements.

Approve the revised classification specification and examination plan for the Fire Engineer position. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for this item. BACKGROUND: In preparation for an upcoming promotional examination for the position of Fire Engineer, the classification specification and accompanying examination plan were reviewed. Updates are recommended to clarify specific essential duties and to incorporate language and formatting used in newly revised classification specifications; proposed changes to the exam plan reflect a more appropriate and specific weighting for each component. DISCUSSION: The Fire Engineer classification specification and examination plan were last updated on April 19, 2011 and May 6, 2003 respectively. In working with the Fire Battalion Chief to prepare for an upcoming promotional exam for Fire Engineer, we identified a need to update the classification specification to reflect ventilation duties when assigned to the truck and to maintain consistency with recent updates to classification specifications which incorporate standardized formatting, language regarding driver's license, disaster service worker requirements, and the City's diversity, equity, and inclusion statement. The existing exam plan provided a weight of 25% for the written exam and the remaining 75% was assigned to a performance test which included multiple Page 73 of 266 Fire Engineer June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 2 components without a specific percentage weight assigned to each. Human Resources worked closely with the Fire Department and the Firefighters Association (FFA) on the proposed revisions to ensure that the essential functions described in the classification specification and examination plan are appropriate for the position. The revised exam plan provides that the written exam is pass/fail; candidates must achieve a score of 70% or above to continue in the examination process. The practical exam requires a score of 70% or above for each component, which is weighted as follows: Pre -trip Inspection 10%, Street Driving 20%, Rodeo Driving 10%, Pumping Operations 30% and Aerial Ladder Operations 30%. Human Resources met and conferred with the FFA on all revisions, and they are in agreement with the changes to both the classification specification and exam plan. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 3: Promote a Quality Workforce Through Teamwork and Organizational Efficiencies Objective: El Segundo is an employer of choice and consistently hires for the future, with a workforce that is inspired, world -class, engaged and innovative.

FISCAL IMPACT: New Revenue of $30,000 CaIEPA Green Business Grant (received on 3/14/2023) - Revenue Account 125-300-0000-3755 New Apropriation of $30,000 CaIEPA Green Business Grant - Expenditure Account 125-400-4801-3755 BACKGROUND: On February 16, 2021, City Council authorized staff to establish the "California Green Business Network Certification" program through the California Environmental Protection Agency (CaIEPA) within the City. This program helps businesses become more environmentally responsible and offers them marketability for their sustainable practices. Certification in the program includes implementation of best management practices that help businesses reduce pollution, save water, conserve energy, minimize waste and shrink their overall carbon footprint. This program is a way for businesses to reflect and show the community that they are committed to environmental values, and to attract like-minded customers. The City received a grant from CaIEPA for an amount of $30,000 for the first year, which was implemented last year. Page 92 of 266 CaIEPA Green Business Grant June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 Staff partnered with South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) and the Chamber of Commerce to coordinate with the business community and engage them in the benefits of obtaining certifications through this program last year. By the end of the first year of the Green Business Certification Program, the City was able to certify 15 businesses in El Segundo. As a result of the success of the program's first year, the City was approved to receive a second grant funding for the second year from CaIEPA for an amount of $30,000. DISCUSSION: The City has been awarded an additional $30,000 from CaIEPA to continue the second year of the Green Business Network Certification Program within the City. With this grant award, staff seeks to build upon the success of the first year of the program. The City will continue its partnership with SBCCOG regarding this program for the second year. A goal has been set to certify an additional 20 businesses by the end of this year. This round of grant funding will be used for the following eligible expenses: • Staff and/or consultant time to assist and track businesses through the program. • Marketing efforts to attract and promote certified Green Businesses. • Business rebates for all the necessary purchases to meet green business standards. • Material expenses for events such as green Business Academies and/or recruitment events. • Community -based organization engagement. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to accept grant funds in the amount of $30,000 to support the second year of the Green Business Network Program within the City of El Segundo.

RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt a Resolution approving continued participation in the Los Angeles Urban County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program by entering into a three-year Cooperation Agreement effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2027 with the County of Los Angeles. 2. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute all contracts, in a form approved by the City Attorney, with the Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA), and to execute any and all documents necessary for participation in the Los Angeles Urban County CDBG Program. 3. Alternatively, discuss and take other possible action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Annually, the City receives approximately $63,000 in federal Community Development Block Grant funds from Los Angeles County. Amount Budgeted: None Additional Appropriation: No Account Number(s): NA BACKGROUND: Each year, CDBG funds are allocated to small cities by the Federal Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD) and administered by LACDA. Participating cities receive federal funding based upon the total number of cities participating in the Page 95 of 266 Continued Participation in CDBG June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 County's program, census population counts, estimates of poverty, overcrowding and aged housing stock. The City of El Segundo has participated in the Los Angeles Urban County's CDBG Small Cities Program since 1986. The mission of the CDBG Program is to improve the quality of life for low- and moderate -income persons, aid in the prevention of neighborhood deterioration and meet other urgent community development needs. The City's annual allocation of approximately $63,000 in federal CDBG funds supports activities such as construction of American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant improvements. DISCUSSION: On May 19, 2020, the City Council approved a Cooperation Agreement with LACDA to continue participating in the Los Angeles Urban County CDBG Program for a three-year period beginning July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024. As the prior three-year qualification period reaches the June 30, 2024 expiration date, LACDA is requesting that cities wishing to continue participating in the Urban County CDBG Program renew for another three-year term. To remain eligible, the City is required to adopt a resolution approving a new three-year Cooperation Agreement. The new term will commence July 1, 2024 and end on June 30, 2027. The proposed resolution authorizes the City Manager, or designee, to sign the Three - Year Cooperation Agreement on behalf of the City Council. The Resolution further provides the City Manager to designate authority to the Community Development Director to execute CDBG Program contracts and agreements with LACDA, and if necessary, make minor adjustments to CDBG programmatic requirements, as directed by LACDA. The City typically uses its CDBG funds to ensure compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. Since 2007, CDBG funds have supported the installation of approximately 325 ADA-compliant accessible curb ramps throughout the City, construction of ADA-compliant improvements at City -owned parking lot facilities, and most recently, the City Hall ADA Restroom Improvement Project.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None BACKGROUND: The City of El Segundo Community Services Department proudly presents an annual series of Concerts in the Park each summer, consisting of five family -friendly concerts in Library Park on Sunday evenings throughout June, July and August. Each event begins at 4.00 PM with activities and food vendors and the concert begins around 4:30 PM. Live entertainment varies from music styles of tribute bands, classic rock, beach music, oldies, and other popular decades and genres. Bands typically play two 45-minute sets and conclude around 6.30 PM. DISCUSSION: Many of the concert goers walk to the event from the adjacent neighborhoods and many families come early to enjoy games and picnics at the park. El Segundo Municipal Code Section 7-6-8 states that it is unlawful to drink any alcoholic beverage or possess an open container of any alcoholic beverage upon any public street, alley, sidewalk, pathway, parking lot, park, beach, or other public property. The California Business and Professions Code Section 25620(a) also prohibits the possession of an open container. Page 109 of 266 Summer Concerts in the Park June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 2 However, the City can take action to enact an exception within the code which states "this section does not apply where the possession is within the premises located in a park or other public place for which a license has been issued." Consumption is allowed under State law if the municipal code is suspended. Municipal Code Section 7-6-8 was suspended for Summer Concerts in the Park for the previous three years. City staff have not experienced any negative incidents allowing alcohol consumption at Concerts in the Park. Staff respectfully request that the municipal code be suspended for the 2023 and 2024 summer concert events. Should any adverse incident occur, City staff would recommend the appropriate liability insurance coverage that is in place. It is also recommended that proper police personnel are assigned at each event. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 1: Enhance Customer Service, Engagement, and Communication; Embrace Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Objective 1 B: El Segundo's engagement with the community ensures excellence. Goal 2: Support Community Safety and Preparedness Objective: El Segundo is a safe and prepared city.

Conduct a public hearing on the proposed private instructor permit fee. 2. Approve the proposed resolution establishing a $15 per hour private instructor fee. 3. Approve the proposed private instructor permit policy. 4. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The estimated fiscal impact from the proposed private instruction fee and permit is potential additional revenue for FY 2023-24 of approximately $20,000. The staffing time to monitor private instruction in the park is anticipated to be approximately six staff hours per week, resulting in approximately $7,800 in additional part-time staffing fees. BACKGROUND: The Recreation Division currently contracts with individuals to conduct a variety of recreation classes and camps for the community. The contractor sets their class rates, and the City manages the advertising and registration and provides facility space to conduct the program. Contract instructors receive 70% of all registration fees (at the resident rate) and the City retains the remaining 30% of the fees. The contract class program generates approximately $230,000 in revenue annually. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Recreation Staff has observed an Page 111 of 266 Public Hearing for the Adoption of a New Private Instructor Permit Fee June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 increase in private instruction taking place in public parks. Individuals are utilizing park spaces to conduct business activity such as fitness training, day camps and other classes. According to El Segundo Municipal Code (ESMC) § 9-8-4 a permit is required for any person to conduct an activity in which persons participating in or viewing the activity are charged a fee or solicited for donations ESMC § 10-1-4(R), City Council written approval is required for any person to hold a meeting, service, concert, exercise or exhibition." DISCUSSION: In an effort to meet the desire of residents to participate in private instruction, staff are proposing a process in which private instructors pay an hourly fee to the City to conduct instructional activities in "public parks," which is defined in ESMC § 10-1-1 to include public parks, public playgrounds, public recreation centers or other public areas the City has set aside for public rest, play, recreation, enjoyment or assembly." The instructional activities requiring a permit would include exercise, fitness, or other recreational activities. As indicated in the attached proposed permit materials, instructors would be required to obtain a business license, provide proof of insurance, sign a hold harmless agreement, and complete a permit application. The instructors will be restricted to providing one-on- one instruction. If an instructor wishes to provide class instruction for more than one person, they will be required to become a contract instructor with the City and adhere to the guidelines of that program. Staff are proposing a $15 hourly fee for the Private Instruction permit to go into effect on July 1, 2023. Approved permitted private instructors will be given an identification badge to assist staff enforcing the program. Instructors will be limited in the number of hours they can provide services weekly and will be assigned space in the parks based on other park activity. Other rules and guidelines for the proposed program can be found in Attachment A.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The cost of the pilot program is $98,280. The pilot program will be funded using Proposition A funding which is allocated annually by Los Angeles County. BACKGROUND: The City receives an allocation of Prop A funding annually to provide and address transportation needs for El Segundo residents and guests. The Prop A funding is provided by Los Angeles County via a half -cent tax raised created in November 1980. The anticipated allocation for FY 23-24 is $401,300. Prop A funding can be utilized for transportation related programs and services such Dial -A -Ride and local transit. Historically, the City has offered a lunchtime shuttle that provided transportation for El Segundo residents Monday through Friday between 11.00 a.m. and 3.00 p.m. The shuttle provided transportation from businesses east of PCH to Downtown El Segundo. Annually, these shuttle services cost $148,000 to operate and were funded through Prop A. During the Covid-19 Pandemic, the City discontinued transportation services such as the Lunchtime Shuttle, Beach Shuttle and Dial -A -Ride due to stay at home orders. In the summer of 2022, the City re -instated the beach shuttle through a contract with local vendor, Swoop. The annual cost for the beach shuttle is approximately $58,000. DISCUSSION: Page 124 of 266 Proposed Pilot Transportation Program, El Segundo Connect June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 In January 2020, the Transportation Subcommittee conducted a community survey to gather information on what challenges residents were facing regarding transportation. Staff also reviewed current transportation programs and service offerings. Based on community feedback, the Transportation Committee recommended a pilot program for a new shuttle service to provide service to lunchtime locations, first mile/last mile locations and various City facilities through an amended contract with Swoop. Staff reviewed a proposal from another transportation vendor, Circuit. Swoop provided the most cost - friendly option for services. The proposed shuttle stop locations for El Segundo Connect are shown in Attachment A. Staff is proposing that during the pilot program there will be no cost to residents to utilize the service. After ridership is analyzed during the pilot program, staff may recommend introducing a small fee for the shuttle service. If approved, the El Segundo Connect pilot program will operate from September 15, 2023, to November 15, 2023 and will offer 16 stops throughout El Segundo Monday through Friday, during the hours of 11.30 a.m. to 6.00 p.m. In an effort to gauge ridership and customer satisfaction, a user survey will be conducted at the end of the pilot program to evaluate the benefits of the El Segundo Connect service. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 1: Enhance Customer Service, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Communication Objective 1A: El Segundo provides unparalleled service to all customers. Objective 1 B: El Segundo's engagement with the community ensures excellence. Goal 5: Champion Economic Development and Fiscal Sustainability Objective 5A: El Segundo promotes economic growth and vitality for business and the community. Objective 513: El Segundo approaches its work in a financially strategic and responsible way.

Approve establishment of the Communications Coordinator (Part-time) classification. 2. Adopt the classification specification for the Communications Coordinator (Part- time). 3. Adopt a resolution establishing the basic salary range for the Communications Coordinator (Part -Time) position. 4. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for the above actions is included in the adopted FY 2022-23 budget. No new funding is required for FY 2022-2023. BACKGROUND: Staff from Human Resources and City Manager's Office met to discuss the challenges faced in recruiting qualified candidates to perform the communication duties and responsibilities as incorporated in the Senior Video Technician 11 classification specification. The existing classification specification encompasses both video production and communications essential duties with a title that is singularly focused on video production. Potential candidates with excellent communication abilities can be deterred by the title and the concentration on the specialized skills in video production. Establishing a part-time Communications Coordinator position with a classification specification that is specific to communications essential duties addresses the challenges in recruiting experienced candidates that may not have applied due to the Page 127 of 266 Communications Coordinator June 20, 2023 Page 2 of 3 position title and related video production duties and qualifications. DISCUSSION: The Human Resources Department is committed to improving and enhancing recruitment, selection, and retention initiatives with best practices. Attracting high caliber candidates, maintaining service levels while filling vacancies, and retaining the individual selected for the position are essential to providing long-term stability and uninterrupted service to our residents and business community. The proposed part-time Communications Coordinator position will provide responsible staff support to the Communications Manager with social media management, website updates, content creation, copyrighting, and other duties related to internal and external communications outreach. The salary range for this position will remain the same as the Senior Video Technician 11 and the creation of this new part-time position will have no fiscal impact as it will be filled utilizing the approved funding in the budget. Although the salary range remains the same, the new position and title does require the adoption of a resolution to establish the basic salary range. Creating the Communications Coordinator classification specification will enable the City to better attract top talent with specific skills in public relations, content creation; and social media management while addressing the challenges faced in recruiting qualified candidates with the appropriate skillsets in communications.

The Recreation and Parks Commission discussed the needs assessment and conceptual design at its meetings on April 21 and May 19, 2021. On May 19, the Recreation and Parks Commission voted 5-0 to recommend the City Council move forward with the enhanced conceptual design for the Urho Saari Swim Stadium. In June 2021, the conceptual plan was presented to City Council with a consensus to proceed into the design phase of renovating the facility. On October 18, 2022, the updated design, with a cost estimate of $11.6M, was presented to City Council with modifications to the June 2021 design as follows: • Two lifts (elevators) have to be added to meet the American Disability Act (ADA) requirements. • The restrooms and the entrance lobby on the first floor need to be modified as a result of adding the two lifts. • The entrance facade of the building needs to be saved due to the historical nature of the facility. • Fire Alarm System to be added, per Fire Marshall. • One room needs to be added to accommodate the IT -related components. • An exit door needs to be added per Fire Marshall. • The IBI Group is recommending a modified lay -out for the locker room s/showers/restroom s which would facilitate better circulation. In the discussion at the October 18, 2022 Council meeting, the City Council directed staff to find elements that could be eliminated from the design to reduce the cost of the project and bring back an updated presentation. The updated presentation was brought back to the City Council on January 17, 2023, with scope reduced by approximately $2M by eliminating the following proposed elements: • The second level community terrace. • The bleachers near the small pool. • The redesigned open -concept lobby space. • HVAC equipment • Exterior painting of the building The City Council opted to leave these items in the scope of the project and directed staff Page 137 of 266 Urho Saari Swim Stadium ("The Plunge") Project June 20, 2023 Page 3 of 4 to promptly proceed with the design. DISCUSSION: Since January 2023, several site investigations have been completed to aid in preparing the final design. Investigative work included the following: • Leak detection of the pool piping • Ground -penetration radar (GPR) testing of the pool shell • Roof core • Storm drain pipe investigation Additionally, pool mechanical equipment was thoroughly reviewed and selected and the locker room layout was rearranged to provide a private family room. The design of the project is currently 85% complete and is expected to be 100% complete in September 2023. Staff and IBI Group will present the updated design to City Council and provide an updated cost estimate based on the current design. It is anticipated that the bidding for construction of this project will begin in the first quarter of 2024.

The City will not credit the ernployee for any time spent on unpaid leave or extended paid leave during their temporary assignment. For this purpose, the Parties agree that "extended paid leave" means leave that exceeds one week. SECTION 8.A#ic1e �.n^ Standby Duty 1.

Salary Table Step Advancement The advancement of a new employee from Step A shall be on the new employee's anniversary date which is established as the day immediately following satisfactory completion of their first six (6) months' service. The advancement of an employee from Steps B, C, and D shall be on the employee's one (1) year anniversary date in the step subject to the limitation of Section F, below, and the advancements therefrom shall be on the anniversary date of the employee. Step E contemplates continued service in such classification until further advancement is indicated by reason of longevity. SECTION 4. Accelerated Salary Step Advancement Accelerated salary step advancement is intended to recognize employees whose job performance is exemplary and consistently exceeds normal expectations for their current step. Prior to an employee completing one (1) year of service at their current step, a n employee whose performance is exemplary and consistently exceeds normal expectations for their current step may be eligible to receive accelerated salary step advancement to a higher salary step, so long as the employee has not yet reached the top step of their salary range. Recommended accelerated salary increases shall be in whole percentages ranging from 1-5%. An employee may receive more than one salary step advancement, but in most cases the total granted shall not exceed 5% in a twelve (12) month period. 3 Page 222 of 266 In order to be eligible for accelerated salary step advancement, the employee's supervisor or manager must recommend such advancement to the responsible Department Head. The supervisor or manager shall submit a written report on the prescribed form to the appropriate Department Head. The Department Head shall submit the form to the Director of Human Resources, indicating whether they agree with the supervisor or manager's recommendation and providing additional comments, if necessary. The Director of Human Resources shall submit the form to the City Manager, indicating whether the recommendation conforms to the City-wide criteria for accelerated step advancement. SECTION 5. Class Series Classifications The following classifications listed below shall be described as class series classifications and employees in such classifications shall be paid according to one of two salary ranges assigned to each of these classifications depending on whether the employee is designated as Level I or Level II employee: 1. Police Assistant 1/11 2. Police Service Officer 1/11 3. Crime Scene Investigator 1/11 In each of these classes, entry level may be made at two different work performance, skill, and assigned responsibility levels corresponding to the two different salary range levels. When entry is made at Level I, the employee shall progress through steps of the range assigned to that level in the manner described in Section 1, except as noted below. When entry is made at Level 11, the employee shall advance through the steps of the range assigned to that level in the same manner as described in Section A. Every person employed at Level I shall be eligible to advance to Level II without regard to the number of other employees at either of the levels or budget limitations. To assure the latter, class series positions shall be budgeted at Level 11 in all cases. Merit considerations, as clarified by the factors listed below, shall be the exclusive basis for advancement to Level 11. When a person is employed at Level I, such employee may be advanced to Level II upon a determination by the Department Head and approval of the Director of Human Resources that the employee's work performance, skill development, and demonstrated ability to perform higher level duties causes their assignment to Level 11 to be appropriate. No employee shall be advanced to Level II without such an evaluation. In making the determination to advance to Level II according to the above -noted factors, such determination shall not be made simply by subjective evaluation but shall be upon a finding that the employee's work performance meets specific criteria developing from the following factors, among others deemed appropriate: 1. Length of service at Level I; 4 Page 223 of 266 2. Acquisition of minimum requirements posted on the class specification and specialized skills required of the position; 3. Achievement of specific job -related goals and objectives during a specified period of time; 4. Increased ability to work without close supervision; 5. Ability to exercise increased individual judgment; 6. Ability to provide leadership and guidance to less experienced employees; 7. Ability to understand and properly apply departmental rules; 8. Ability to produce work which is acceptable both in terms of quality and quantity and which represents at least the average level of work produced by other Level 11 employees. In order to effectuate the advancement from Level I to Level 11, the immediate supervisor shall prepare a memo for approval by the Department Head, which is sent to the Director of Human Resources, or their designee, and processed through a Personnel Action Form ("PAF"). The Director of Human Resources or their designee shall review and approve the PAF and authorize the employee's advancement and change in status from Level I to Level 11. Whenever an employee's status changes from Level I to Level 11, such employee shall be compensated at the lowest rate of compensation provided for in the higher Level II salary range which exceeds by not less than five percent (5%) the rate of compensation received by said employee at the time of assignment to Level 11. While occupying a position assigned to a class series classification, an employee shall serve only one probation period. A. Longevity Pay - Employees to whom this Section applies who are eligible to receive longevity pay shall receive longevity pay based upon an overall rating of "standard" or higher as determined by the employee's performance evaluation. If the employee fails to qualify for longevity pay because of failure to have attained a "standard" or higher rating, and the employee's overall performance subsequently improves to at least a "standard" level, the longevity pay increase shall be granted upon the issuance of a satisfactory performance report. B. Step Advancement - Anniversary Date - An employee advanced from any range to another range of the Basic Salary Schedule shall receive a new anniversary date which is the date of the change. The provision of a new anniversary date is not intended to effect the employee's seniority. The City shall provide the increase in compensation associated with the step advancement for the pay period during which the anniversary occurs. Other changes in salary shall not change the anniversary date, except for promotions made in accordance with the Personnel Merit System Ordinance or the Personnel Rules and Regulations. The City reserves the right, at any time, and in its sole discretion, to change the range number assigned to any officer or employee and to determine the particular step in any range number which is to be thereafter assigned to any such officer or employee, subject to meet and confer with the Union. Notwithstanding the above, an employee in a classification under Section C shall not be assigned a new anniversary date when they are advanced from Level I to Level II in that same classification. 5 Page 224 of 266 C. Increases on Merit - Basic Salary Schedule - An employee shall be eligible for advancement to a higher step on the basis of service time as described in Section A, above, and satisfactory performance of duties. An employee will be presumed to merit an increase unless their Department Head, with the concurrence of the Director of Human Resources notifies the employee in writing no later than the end of the pay period which begins after said employee's anniversary date that the increase should be withheld, stating reasons. The reasons shall be provided to the employee in writing. If the employee's performance subsequently improves to a satisfactory level, the step increase will be granted and the date of increase will become the employee's anniversary date. SECTION 6. Payroll Direct Deposit Payroll is distributed bi-weekly (i.e., 26 times per year).

The City shall credit the employee with the days served in the higher classification or position, and shall make a comparable reduction to the number of days that the employee must serve in a probationary status following promotion to the higher classification or position. The City will not credit the employee for any time spent on unpaid leave or extended paid leave during their temporary assignment. For this purpose, the Parties agree that "extended paid leave" means leave that exceeds one week. 6 Page 225 of 266 SECTION 8.

Grounds for Lavoff Whenever, in the judgment of the City Council, it becomes necessary to reduce the workforce because of a lack of funds, lack of work or reorganization, an employee may be laid off, reduced in classification or displaced by another employee. Such layoff, reduction or displacement shall result from action of the City Manager or designee. Such action shall not entitle the laid off, reduced or displaced employee to a right of appeal. The City Manager shall recommend to the City Council each classification to be affected by any such change. 29 Page 248 of 266 SECTION 10. Notice to the Association and Emplovees The City shall notify the Association thirty (30) days prior to the implementation of layoffs, to provide for adequate time to meet and confer regarding the impact. An employee filling a full time position shall be given fourteen (14) calendar days prior notice of lay off. Employees transferred, reduced or displaced shall be given five (5) calendar days' notice. The City Council may approve a reduction in the notice requirements, if so recommended by the City Manager. SECTION 11. Procedures for Layoff A permanent employee in a classification affected by a reduction in force shall be laid off based on seniority in City service. That is the employee with the least City service shall be laid off first, followed by the employee with the second least City service, etc. SECTION 12. Tie Breaks Provided that the seniority of two (2) employees is the same, retention points for job performance shall be credited on the basis of the average of the overall evaluation ratings for the last three (3) years in a classification, provided the last rating had been filed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the layoff notice. Retention points are as follows 1. "Unsatisfactory" rating = 0 retention points 2. "Below Standard" rating = 6 retention points 3. "Standard" rating = 12 retention points 4. "Above Standard" rating = 18 retention points 5. "Outstanding" rating = 24 retention points In the event of a tie in seniority, the employee with the lowest average of retention points shall be laid off first. In the event that one or more of the affected employees do not have a sufficient number of performance evaluations on file, ties shall be broken by a coin toss. SECTION 13. Reduction to a Vacant Position An employee designated for layoff as a result of abolition of a position or classification may be offered appointment to a vacant position in a lower classification, if the employee is qualified by education and/or experience for such position. If there is more than one qualified employee to be offered such appointment(s), the offer(s) shall be based on seniority, with the employee with the highest seniority offered the position first, then the next highest, etc. 30 Page 249 of 266 If the employees have the same seniority, then the procedure for breaking ties set forth above shall apply. SECTION 14. Displacement Rights An employee designated for layoff as a result of elimination of a position or classification may displace (i.e., "bump") an employee in a lower classification in which the employee has prior service, provided the laid off person has greater seniority than the employee in the lower classification An employee who is bumped shall be laid off in the same manner as employee whose position or classification is eliminated. SECTION 15. Salary Placement An employee who accepts appointment to a lower classification as a result of a displacement (i.e., bumping) shall be placed on the step of the lower classification with the salary that most closely corresponds to, but in no case is higher than, the salary step of their previously held position. The employee accepting such appointment shall receive a new salary anniversary date on the effective date of the appointment. The employee shall, however, retain seniority while their name remains on reemployment list or lists, as set forth in Section13 below. SECTION 16. Reemployment List The names of permanent employees who have been laid off under this section (including employees who have bumped down to a lower classification) shall be placed, in order of seniority from most to least, on a reemployment list for their prior classification or any lower classification for which the employee is qualified by education or experience. Persons on such lists shall retain eligibility for appointment to such classification(s) for a period of three (3) years from the date their names were placed on the list. As a vacancy within such a classification becomes available, the name appearing at the top of the reemployment list shall be offered the opportunity to fill the vacancy. The name of an individual selected from the list to fill the vacancy who refuses the re-employment offer without good cause shall be permanently removed from the re-employment list without right of appeal. Laid -off employees do not earn seniority credit or benefits while on the re-employment list. SECTION 17. Rights Upon Reemployment If a person is reemployed by the City within three (3) years of their layoff, the employee's accumulated sick leave allowance, seniority and vacation accrual shall be maintained or reinstated to the extent that it has not been paid out, as the case may be. Reemployed employees shall be placed on the same salary step previously held upon reemployment, unless the individual is reemployed in a lower related classification in which case the employee shall be placed on the step for the lower classification with the salary than most 31 Page 250 of 266 closely corresponds to, but in no case is higher than, the salary step of their previously held position. SECTION 18. Seniority For the purpose of this section, seniority shall be defined as a bargaining unit member's total, continuous employment in a position in the City's classified service. Total, continuous employment is that which is uninterrupted by separation and includes the following: (1) actual time worked; (2) authorized leave of absence, both paid and unpaid; (3) family leave, military leave: and (4) industrial injury or illness leave.
