This process is done to ensure that an effective and efficient approval process is in place for purchases over the City Manager's approval threshold of $50,000 and that these vital City services are operational in the beginning of the new fiscal year and delivery of excellent customer service will continue uninterrupted. The following service agreements and blanket purchase orders ("POs") are organized by the operational department and reference the agreement as related to the "recommended Council action" item number listed above.

Page 32 of 205 Amendments to Ongoing Agreements and Blanket POs June 18, 2024 Page 7 of 8 #3 - Fuel for City Vehicles and Equipment Generally, fuel is purchased either through spot market purchases or long-term contracts. 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 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 suit a specific purchase, when the waiver is not in violation of State law.

In addition to providing competitive pricing, quality products, and in - stock inventory, Waterline Technologies, Inc. is the only vendor in the area that can cover most delivery requests the very next day.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: Exempt positions from the Civil Service system do not have the same rights as classified positions. Civil Service provides a range of job protections for City employees, including merit -based hiring and promotions, opportunity for employees to correct performance issues, and "for cause" termination. In contrast, employees exempt from Civil Service may be appointed without a competitive hiring process and are subject to "At -Will" employment (i.e., employment that may be terminated at any time for any reason not prohibited by law). El Segundo Municipal Code ("ESMC") §§ 1-6-1 and 1-6-1 require Civil Service membership for all City employees except those specifically exempted. ESMC § 1-6-4 exempts department heads, elective officers, and certain specified positions listed therein. The "At -Will" classifications in the "Management and Confidential" unrepresented group are based upon positions requiring a particularly high degree of professional Page 36 of 205 Second Reading of an Ordinance June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 4 responsiveness, individual accountability, broad management responsibilities, and independent discretion required to perform assigned responsibilities. The proposed Ordinance was introduced at the June 4, 2024 City Council meeting, and the City Council directed staff to schedule the second reading at the June 18, 2024 regular City Council meeting. DISCUSSION: The Environmental Programs Manager is a new classification that was approved at the November 7, 2023 City Council meeting as an At -Will position. The final step in confirming the At -Will status requires an amendment to the municipal code. The Building Safety Manager became vacant in September 2023. In accordance with the Ordinance 1656 adopted on February 6, 2024, positions marked with an asterisk are to become exempt from the Civil Service system once vacated and a revised classification specification was approved by City Council. On May 21, 2024, City Council approved the revised classification specification which includes a title change from Building Safety Manager to Building Official. An update to the municipal code with the new classification title is also required. The proposed Ordinance would replace Ordinance 1656, add the Environmental Programs Manager position to the list of those exempted from the Civil Service system, and retitle the Building Safety Manager to Building Official. The positions proposed added are noted below in bold text. A Civil Service exemption for each of the three positions noted below with an asterisk (*) will become effective upon vacation of each position and City Council approval of a revised classification specification for the position. Positions Excluded from Civil Service System Assistant City Clerk (At -Will) Building Official (At -Will) City Attorney City Engineer (At -Will) City Manager Communications Manager (At -Will) Deputy City Manager Page 37 of 205 Second Reading of an Ordinance June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 4 Environmental Programs Manager (At -Will) Finance Manager (At -Will) General Services Superintendent (At -Will) Human Resources Manager (At -Will) Information Systems Manager (At -Will) Library Services Manager* Park Maintenance Superintendent* Planning Manager (At -Will) Principal Civil Engineer* Recreation Manager (At -Will) Risk Manager (At -Will) Senior Civil Engineer (At -Will) Senior Executive Assistant (At -Will) Treasury and Customer Service Manager (At -Will) Utilities Superintendent (At -Will). Implementation Actions To implement the above actions, modification to ESMC Chapter 1-6 is needed to comply with City's personnel policies and practices and state law. The proposed Ordinance would exclude the positions listed above from the merit system. Two readings of the Ordinance are required for approval. Staff recommends a second reading and adoption of the proposed Ordinance at the regular June 18, 2024 City Council meeting. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 3: Promote a Quality Workforce Through Teamwork and Organizational Efficiencies Objective 3A: El Segundo is an employer of choice and consistently hires for the future, with a workforce that is inspired, world -class, engaged and innovative.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING EL SEGUNDO MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 1-6 (PERSONNEL MERIT SYSTEM) TO EXPAND THE LIST OF POSITIONS EXEMPT FROM THE CIVIL SERVICE SYSTEM. The City Council of the City of El Segundo does ordain as follows: SECTION 1. The City Council finds and determines as follows: A. State law allows cities to adopt civil service programs that are adaptable to their respective sizes and types via ordinance (Gov. Code, § 45000 et seq.) B. The City has adopted a civil service system which is set forth in El Segundo Municipal Code ("ESMC") Chapter 1-6 (Personnel Merit System). C. The City Council desires to adopt this Ordinance to memorialize updates to the positions excluded from the City's civil service system. SECTION 2. El Segundo Municipal Code ("ESMC") § 1-6-4 is amended in its entirety to read as follows: "1-6-4: EXCLUSIONS: Effective , 2024, those officers and members of departments, in addition to department heads and elected officers who are expressly excluded from the merit system, are: Assistant City Clerk (At -Will) Assistant City Manager (At -Will) Building Official (At -Will) City Attorney City Engineer (At -Will) City Manager Communications Manager (At -Will) Deputy City Manager Environmental Programs Manager (At -Will) Finance Manager (At -Will) Page 40 of 205 City of El Segundo Ordinance No. Page 2 of 4 General Services Superintendent (At -Will) Human Resources Manager (At -Will) Information Systems Manager (At -Will) Library Services Manager* Park Maintenance Superintendent* Planning Manager (At -Will) Principal Civil Engineer* Recreation Manager (At -Will) Risk Manager (At -Will) Senior Civil Engineer (At -Will) Senior Executive Assistant (At -Will) Treasury and Customer Service Manager (At -Will) Utilities Superintendent (At -Will). *NOTE: Any position designated above with an asterisk will only be excluded from the personnel merit system under this section upon both the vacancy of such position after the date first set forth in this section and City Council approval of a revised classification specification for the position." SECTION 3. Validity of Previous Code Sections. If this entire Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, any repeal of the ESMC or other regulation by this Ordinance will be rendered void and cause such ESMC provision or other regulation to remain in full force and effect for all purposes. SECTION 4. Enforceability. Repeal or amendment of any previous Code Sections does not affect any penalty, forfeiture, or liability incurred before, or preclude prosecution and imposition of penalties for any violation occurring before this Ordinance's effective date. Any such repealed part will remain in full force and effect for sustaining action or prosecuting violations occurring before the effective date of this Ordinance. SECTION 5. Severability. If any part of this Ordinance or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not Page 41 of 205 City of El Segundo Ordinance No. Page 3 of 4 affect the effectiveness of the remaining provision or application and, to this end, the provisions of this Ordinance are severable. SECTION 6. The City Clerk, or her duly appointed deputy, is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City of El Segundo's book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within fifteen (15) days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law. SECTION 7. Construction. This Ordinance must be broadly construed to achieve the purposes stated in this Ordinance. It is the City Council's intent that the provisions of this Ordinance be interpreted or implemented by the City and others in a manner that facilitates the purposes set forth in this Ordinance. SECTION 8. Environmental Review. This Ordinance was reviewed pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., "CEQA") and the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 Cal. Code of Regulations §§15000, et seq., the "CEQA Guidelines"). Based upon that review, this Ordinance is exempt from further review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the Ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment. SECTION 9. Recording. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance; cause it to be entered into the City's book of original ordinances; make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting; and, within 15 days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law. SECTION 10. Execution. The Mayor, or presiding officer, is hereby authorized to affix his signature to this Ordinance signifying its adoption by the City Council of the City of El Segundo, and the City Clerk, or duly appointed deputy, is directed to attest thereto. SECTION 11. Effective Date. This Ordinance will take effect on the 30th day following its final passage and adoption. ORDINANCE NO.

Authorize the City Manager to execute a Second Amendment with Lyft for $85,000 for Dial a Ride and Dr. Dial a Ride services for FY 2024-25. 3. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to these items. FISCAL IMPACT: The total cost to operate the Beach Shuttle, Day Trips, Event Shuttles, and Lyft services for FY 2024-25 is estimated to be $224,000 as follows: 1. Summer Beach Shuttle Services: $95,000 (Swoop) 2. Day Trip Services: $20,000 (Swoop) 3. Spring Break Beach Shuttle Services: $9,000 (Swoop) 4. Event Shuttle Services: $15,000 (Swoop) 5. Lyft Services: $85,000 (Lyft) A total amount of $476,128 of Prop A funding is included in the FY 2024-25 Adopted Budget for transportation related services. Staff is proposing amending contracts with Swoop and Lyft in the amount of $224,000 to continue transportation programs. The remaining balance of Prop A funds will be held for other transportation related expenses and future transportation services to be planned by staff in coordination with the Transportation Subcommittee of the Recreation and Parks Commission. Amount Budgeted: $174,000 Additional Appropriation: No Page 44 of 205 Transportation Services Contract Amendments June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 4 Account Number(s): 112-400-5293-6206 (Contractual Shuttle Services) Amount Budgeted: $100,000 Additional Appropriation: No Account Number(s): 112-400-5292-6206 (Contractual Dial a Ride Services) Amount Budgeted: $35,000 Additional Appropriation: No Account Number(s): 112-400-5294-6216 (Trip Rental Services) BACKGROUND: The Recreation, Parks and Library Department offered a variety of transportation services to residents during Fiscal Year 2023-24 through contract services with Swoop, Inc. ("Swoop") and Lyft, Inc. ("Lyft"). These services included the Beach Shuttle program, excursions, Lyft services, event shuttle services and the El Segundo Connect Pilot program. Staff is proposing the continuation of all of these services except the El Segundo Connect program. Beach Shuttle Program The City of El Segundo began offering the Beach Shuttle in June 1985. The beach shuttle services continued operation until the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Historically, these services were conducted using a City owned shuttle and City employed drivers. In recent years, the Department has been contracting vendors to provide these services due to challenges hiring and retaining qualified drivers. The Beach Shuttle operates during spring and summer break, transporting residents from various locations around town to El Porto beach. The hours for the shuttle services are 11:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Ridership for Summer 2023 was 3,378. Ridership for Spring of 2024 was 238. The cost to operate the Beach Shuttle Program for Fiscal Year 23/24 was $93,600. The average cost for the City to transport one rider was $25. Because of the prevalence of youth utilizing E-bikes for transportation, staff will monitor ridership closely this year to determine if the Beach Shuttle services are still needed or should be reduced in the future. Excursion Services The Day Trippers is a once -a -month program that began in 2018. The program takes seniors to various sites throughout Los Angeles County. These locations include museums (Getty Center, Broad Museum, Hammer Museum), historical landmarks, Farmers' Markets and other entertainment locations. In addition to the senior Day Trippers program, City staff have also offered day trips to adult residents to various attractions in Los Angeles County to experience art and culture programming. Finally, Page 45 of 205 Transportation Services Contract Amendments June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 4 day trip services have been included in day camps and and teen programs to transport youth to a variety of attractions and events throughout Los Angeles County. Lyft Services In October 2021, the Council voted to approve a pilot program for transportation services to medical appointments for seniors and disabled residents. The service is provided through a contract agreement with Lyft and is offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Participants in the program must have a Recreation ID and either be at least 55 years of age or disabled. Eligible riders can call and reserve rides up to five days in advance or reserve rides via the Lyft mobile app. Riders are subsidized up to $20 with program participants paying a minimum of $5 per ride. Event Shuttle Services The Recreation, Parks and Library Department also assists residents with transportation to and from City activities, programs and services. Examples of this include shuttles to the Little League World Series events, shuttles to and from Candy Cane Lane and shuttles for El Segundo Unified School District students from various schools to local parks. To support these efforts, staff is requesting $15,000 in funding to accommodate requests for Fiscal Year 24/25. ES Connect Program In Summer 2021 the Recreation Transportation committee conducted informal online community surveys to determine what transportation services were desired by residents. Based on survey and community feedback information, the Transportation Committee recommended a pilot program to provide transportation service to lunchtime locations, public transit such as the Metro station, and City facilities, including Campus El Segundo and the Aquatics Center. From August 23, 2023 to November 15, 2023 the City piloted an El Segundo Connect Pilot Program with Swoop. The program offered two routes through El Segundo with up to 16 stops. The service operated Monday through Friday, 11:30am to 6:OOpm. The pilot serviced over 1,193 riders. Based on the number of rides and the monthly cost to operate the program, each ride utilized $79.77 of Prop A funding. Due to the high cost of this service, staff did not recommend the continuation of the El Segundo Connect program. DISCUSSION: The current transportation contracts with Swoop and Lyft will expire on June 30, 2024. Staff are projecting Fiscal Year 2023-24 year end totals to be $292,280 for transportation services. The Recreation, Parks, and Library Department is requesting the City Council to authorize the extension of the contracted transportation services for Page 46 of 205 Transportation Services Contract Amendments June 18, 2024 Page 4 of 4 the 2024-25 Fiscal Year in the amount of $224,000 to continue providing transportation services. The balance of Prop A funds, estimated to be $143,000, will remain in the fund balance for to reimburse administrative costs and to fund future programs and services.

Approve a seventy-five percent (75%) event fee waiver for the El Segundo Firefighters' Association Fun Run event. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The waived fees for this event would total approximately $33,449.91. BACKGROUND: The El Segundo Firefighters' Association ("Association"), a local non-profit organization, has requested a fee waiver for special event permit fees associated with the First Annual Fun Run event. The Fun Run is scheduled for Sunday, August 4th, 2024 at various locations throughout the city. The Association is planning this event to encourage community engagement with the El Segundo Fire Department and to raise funding to provide assistance to local community organizations. The event also aims to educate participants about fire safety while providing an opportunity for families and individuals to come together in support of a common cause. The Fee Waiver Request Form and Fee Waiver Scorecard are attached to this report. The fee waiver aims to help offset costs for the event, providing the Association with more opportunity to give back to community programs. DISCUSSION: At the December 19, 2023 meeting, the City Council approved the process for non-profit organizations based in El Segundo to request fee waivers for events. Based on the attached Fee Waiver Scorecard (Attachment 1), a waiver of 75% of fees is Page 48 of 205 Waiver of Special Event Permit Fees (75%) for the El Segundo Firefighters' Association Fun Run June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 2 recommended for this local, non -profit -run event.

Pursuant to El Segundo Municipal Code 1-7-9(C), authorize the cooperative "piggyback" purchase of five new 2024 BMW R-1250 RT-P 716 motorcycles through a competitively bid City of Sacramento contract #1322153311006 in an amount not to exceed $167,834.57, including a $5,000 contingency. 2. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute all necessary agreements, orders, or other documentation to effectuate the purchase of the motorcycles. 3. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to repurpose, sell, or auction the department's used motorcycle fleet, except for two low -mileage BMW motorcycles that will be kept for training purposes. 4. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: Amount Budgeted: $161,500 in account #601-400-3101-8105 (Equipment Replacement Fund) Additional Appropriation: $6,334.57 in account #120-400-0000-8104 (Citizens Options for Public Safety ("COPS") Fund) BACKGROUND: El Segundo Municipal Code § 1-7-9(C) allows the City to bypass competitive bidding if it utilizes a cooperative purchase through another public agency that competitively bid a procurement for the proposed goods or services within the last five years. Such cooperative "piggyback" purchases require City Council approval if over $50,000. Page 53 of 205 Purchase of Five Police Department Motorcycles June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 4 The El Segundo Police Department ("ESPD") utilizes five 2019 BMW R 1250 RT-P police motorcycles for everyday enforcement. In addition, two 2013 Honda ST 1300P police motorcycles are maintained and utilized for training purposes and as spare units to be used during special events. Due to the nature and intensity of use, the replacement interval schedule for these units is set for three years. Due to budget constraints at the time of the scheduled replacement, which was 2023, the replacement was delayed for one year on the BMW motorcycles. The replacement of the two 2013 Honda motorcycles was set for September 2016. ESPD kept the two Honda motorcycles as spares to be used as training motorcycles, so the BMW motorcycles would have less chance of being damaged. Based on an assessment conducted by ESPD personnel and fleet maintenance staff, the BMW and Honda motorcycles have exceeded the life expectancy for everyday use. This determination was based on the age, mileage, overall condition, warranties being expired, and repair history, as well as the ESPD needs. Some additional factors that contributed to that determination are as follows: • The new 2024 BMW motorcycles have dramatically increased their safety features from the 2019 models, making them safer for the riding officers and the public. Some enhancements include advanced ABS, a touchscreen console, self - shifting capabilities, and LED emergency lighting. • The 2019 BMW motorcycles' warranty has expired, and any non -warranty related service is the responsibility of the City to pay for. • As the 2019 BMWs age, they have become less reliable, and the service costs continue to increase. For example, in the past 12 months, the City has paid approximately $15,000. This is up $5,000 from the previous 12 months. • The Honda motorcycles that are used as spares for training are 11 years old and have also surpassed their life expectancy. Lastly, ESPD proposes keeping two of the lower mileage BMW motorcycles for training and replacing the two Honda motorcycles that are used as our current training motorcycles. This will allow us to replace the 11-year-old Honda motorcycles with two 2019 BMW motorcycles and make our training bikes the same make, and similar model, as the motorcycles our officers currently ride in the field. DISCUSSION: Following a detailed evaluation of potential police motorcycle options, Staff determined the BMW R1250 RT-P 716 police motorcycle remains the best option to meet the ESPD's needs based on operational and functional maneuverability, substantial safety features, and maintenance needs and costs. Below are some of the features/manufacturer's equipment that are only available on the BMW police Page 54 of 205 Purchase of Five Police Department Motorcycles June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 4 motorcycle. • Cornering ABS — Allows the officer/rider to maintain control while braking in turns. • Electronic Suspension Adjustment ("ESA)" with Dynamic Traction Control ("DTC") • 46-degree lean angle. • Minimum octane fuel rating: 87 AKI - Regular (significant savings — can use City bulk fuel). • Fuel capacity of 6.6 gallons with a range of over 300 miles. • 6000-mile service intervals. • Fully integrated LED emergency lighting system. • Three -tone 120 dB twin -speaker siren, air -horn and public address • Dual linked maintenance free batteries. • Pre -wired constant and switched -power circuits for computers, printers or video systems. • Ergonomically arranged instruments. • Heated seat and handlebar grips. • Weather protection package. • 3 years/60,000-mile warranty. This purchase will be primarily funded from the Equipment Replacement fund in the amount of $161,500. An additional appropriation of $6,334.55 is requested from the state's COPS fund, which includes a $5,000 contigency. If approved, all new 2024 BMW motorcycles will be placed on the Equipment Replacement schedule with a three-year service life.

Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: None. BACKGROUND: Walk With Sally, a local non-profit organization, is requesting approval from the City Council to host and serve alcohol at their White Light White Night event on Saturday, August 10, 2024. White Light White Night is Walk With Sally's annual South Bay gala focused on uniting and inspiring the community through creativity and joy, while raising awareness and critical funds needed to support their mission. This year the organization will be celebrating 20 years of serving children impacted by cancer. The event will include food, drinks, and live entertainment. The estimated attendance for this event is 1,000. Walk With Sally is requesting the City Municipal Code section 10-1-4(C) be waived to allow alcohol on a public street for this event. Walk With Sally would be subject to compliance with California Department of Alcohol Beverage Control ("ABC") regulations and permitting requirements. Page 58 of 205 Request to Allow Alcohol on for Walk With Sally's White Light White Night Event June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 2 DISCUSSION: The Annual Walk With Sally event will take place on Park Place and Apollo Street with alcohol to be served on the patios of 806 and 809 Apollo Street. The event will be bound with barricades and include private security to ensure safety and supervision. An event map is attached (Attachment 1). The event is scheduled from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and staff will continue to work with Walk With Sally's CEA, Tash Brooks, on the logistics for the event. El Segundo Municipal Code 10-1-4(C) prohibits the consumption or possession of intoxicating liquor on any street, sidewalk or parkway, park, playground, or in any public place, or in any place open to the patronage of the public, whose premises are not licensed for the consumption of liquor, which would include Park Place and Apollo Street. Therefore, City Council action is required and requested to facilitate the proposed allowance of alcohol for this event.

Adopt a Resolution amending the City's Administrative Code to update sections for the unrepresented Battalion Chief classification covered under Chapter 1A2 Management -Confidential series. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact of the proposed salary and benefit changes for the Battalion Chief classification included in Chapter 1A2 of the Administrative Code for the Management and Confidential Series is approximately $142,000 for FY 2024-25. Additional Appropriation: Staff is requesting an additional appropriation of $142,000 from the General Fund - Unappropriated Fund Balance in FY 2024-25 for implementing the terms of the salary and benefit changes for the Battalion Chief employees in the Management and Confidential Series. Account Numbers: 001-400-3202-4101, Salaries Full -Time $94,432.51 001-400-3202-4201 Retirement CalPERS $20,800.96 001-400-3202-4202, FICA $1,542.14 001-400-3202-4203, Workers Compensation $16,026.28 001-400-3202-4204, Group Insurance $9,198.11 Total: $142,000.00 Page 66 of 205 Revsions to Battalion Chief Salaries and Benefits June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 5 BACKGROUND: The Management and Confidential Series are unrepresented employees that are classified into two subgroups: Mid -Management and Confidential, and Executives. The Battalion Chief classification is included in the Mid -Management and Confidential group. These employees are classified as "Safety" under the CalPERS retirement system and are the highest level of fire personnel under the Fire Chief. Compensation, benefits and other terms and conditions of employment for the Management and Confidential Series employees are provided under the City's Administrative Code Chapter 1A2. On August 15, 2023, a fully amended version of the Administrative Code was approved and adopted by City Council. While this update included some changes to benefits for employees in the Battalion Chief classification, it did not include salary changes. The City's intention was to make salary changes to the Battalion Chief classification once a successor labor agreement was reached with the El Segundo Firefighters' Association ("ESFA") bargaining unit. On May 21, 2024, a new ESFA Memorandum of Understanding was approved and adopted by the City Council. This staff report includes a red -lined and clean version of the changes to the Administrative Code made by Resolution after August 15, 2023 and the proposed new changes relating to the Battalion Chief classification. DISCUSSION: The unrepresented Battalion Chief classification oversees ESFA-represented employees. They are responsible for one of three platoons of fire safety personnel, and they directly supervise the Fire Captain rank. The compensation structure for the Battalion Chief and employees in the ESFA differ in the method in which salaries are maintained (salary range adjustment or cost -of -living increase) and the number of special and incentive pays available. In setting compensation for the Battalion Chief, it is important to consider total compensation (base salary plus special pays) of the Fire Captain to encourage a succession path to promotion and to limit pay compaction between the supervisory and subordinate ranks. The City's approach to employee compensation with the newly approved labor agreements is to eliminate special pays and apply them to base salary where appropriate to provide more transparency in salaries. The proposed changes to the Battalion Chief compensation outlined in this report are in alignment with this approach. Employees covered under the Administrative Code do not receive cost -of -living adjustments to salary as is customary with the represented employees in a bargaining unit. Instead, they receive salary increases based on merit and performance from 1-5% annually, until the top of the established salary range for the position has been attained. Once at the top of the salary range, no additional salary can be provided, regardless of satisfactory job performance. After the salary range is adjusted, if an employee is due Page 67 of 205 Revsions to Battalion Chief Salaries and Benefits June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 5 for their annual evaluation, they may be awarded a salary increase based on their performance and availability in the salary range. The salary range for the Battalion Chief classification was last adjusted on June 4, 2019. Employees in the ESFA received a 1.5% cost -of -living adjustment in February 2024 and will receive an additional 5.3% cost -of -living adjustment in July 2024. The proposed salary range adjustment of 6.8% for the Battalion Chief maintains the differential between the unrepresented and represented ranks. The Battalion Chief is eligible for two special pays in addition to base salary. These pays include an Educational Incentive for possession of a Bachelor's degree at $1,170.19 per month or a Master's degree at $1,755.28 per month and Chief Officer certification at $585.09 per month. The proposed change eliminates the Educational Incentive and instead provides the pay in base salary at the rate earned by a Battalion Chief with a Master's degree. This same methodology is incorporated in the new ESFA labor agreement. Another difference in the compensation structure between the unrepresented and represented Fire safety personnel is that Battalion Chiefs do not receive Longevity pay while the subordinate ranks are eligible a two -tiered Longevity pay based on their service with the City. This pay provision is a significant difference between the ranks for employees hired prior to 2015. A Fire Captain in Tier 1 with 19 years of service receives $2,199.50 per month in Longevity pay. The proposed change to eliminate the Chief Officer certification pay and incorporate $2,199.50 per month to base salary further streamlines Battalion Chief compensation by eliminating all remaining special pays and reduces the gap between the ranks by the Tier 1 Longevity pay provision received by Fire Captains. Battalion Chiefs work on a 48/96 suppression shift schedule with 24-hour shifts which equates to 112 hours pay period. All other employees covered under the Administrative Code work on a schedule which is 80 hours per pay period. Administrative Leave is provided up to 56 hours per calendar year for all non -executives. A Battalion Chief would need 24 hours of Administrative Leave to take one workday off. Adjusting the amount of Administrative Leave eligibility from up to 56 hours to up to 96 hours would offset the additional hours worked under the suppression shift schedule. Below is a summary of the proposed changes to Chapter 1A2 of the Administrative Code- Management and Confidential Series for the Battalion Chief classification. If approved, these changes would become effective the pay period beginning June 29, 2024: 1. 6.8% Salary Range Adjustment 2. Eliminate the Education Incentive and provide the previous Battalion Chief Educational Incentive for a Master's degree in the amount of $1,755.28 per Page 68 of 205 Revsions to Battalion Chief Salaries and Benefits June 18, 2024 Page 4 of 5 month to base salary. 3. Eliminate the Chief Officer Certification pay of $585.09 per month and instead provide the Tier 1 Longevity pay for a Fire Captain with 19 years of service in the amount of $2,199.50 per month to base salary. 4. Increase Administrative Leave hours awarded from up to 56 to 96 per calendar year. The updated Administrative Code includes revisions to the following sections: • Section 1A2.000 Schedule of Classes by Series: Incorporation and revisions to list of positions covered by Chapter 1A2 completed by prior resolutions. • Section 1A2.010 Basic Salary Schedule: Revised salary schedule reflects prior changes updated by resolutions along with proposed new Battalion Chief salary schedule. The new salary range for Battalion Chief was first adjusted by 6.8% and then $1,755.28 and $2,199.50 were added to the entrance and top of the salary range. The new range is $17,882.63 to $20,668.20 per month. • Section 1A2.100 Administrative Leave: Updated to reflect the increase from up to 56 to up to 96 hours per calendar year for Battalion Chiefs. • Section 1A2.115.2 Educational Incentive: Updated to reflect elimination of this pay and addition of $1,755.28 to base pay. • Section 1A2.123 Chief Officer Certification: Updated to reflect elimination of this pay and addition of $2,199.50 per month to base pay. If approved and adopted, Human Resources will work with Finance to implement the new and updated salary and benefit provisions.

Jurisdiction and Venue. All arbitrations of Arbitrable Claims shall be heard in Los Angeles County, California, and all court proceedings arising out of this Agreement shall be filed in Los Angeles County, California. "EMPLOYEE" "EMPLOYER" CITY OF EL SEGUNDO Signature of Employee Signature of Employer Representative Printed Name of Employee Dated Name/Title of Employer Representative Dated Page 132 of 205 City Council Agenda Statement F I, F G t I) O Meeting Date: June 18, 2024 Agenda Heading: Staff Presentations Item Number: D.10 TITLE: Resolution to Establish a Workplace Violence Prevention Plan RECOMMENDATION: 1. Adopt a Resolution establishing a Workplace Violence Prevention Plan. 2. Alternatively, discuss and take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for the adoption of a Workplace Violence Prevention Plan ("WVPP" or "Plan"). Administration of the Plan will result in costs for employee training which can be absorbed in the Human Resources Department's Citywide training budget. BACKGROUND: In 2023, Senate Bill 553 was enacted into law, adding Labor Code section 6401.9 to require employers to adopt and implement a Workplace Violence Prevention Plan and corresponding training for their employees by July 1, 2024. This new law is applicable to El Segundo in its capacity as an employer. DISCUSSION: The City has been working closely with legal counsel to draft a WVPP for the City and to provide training for City employees on the WVPP. On May 28, 2024, Human Resources sent a draft copy of the WVPP to bargaining unit representatives and the unrepresented employees for review and feedback. No requests were received from the employee organizations requesting to bargain any negotiable effects or impacts implicated by the City's compliance with Labor Code section 6401.9 and its implementation of the WVPP. The Labor Code requires that the Plan include various components, including, but not Page 133 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 2 limited to the following: (1) identification of the City employee responsible for implementing the Plan, (2) procedures for responding to reports of workplace violence, (3) procedures for identifying and correcting workplace violence hazards, and (4) procedures for post -incident responses and investigations. The Labor Code also requires the City to record information in a violent incident log for every workplace violence incident and maintain such records for inspection. Adoption and implementation of the Plan is required by law by July 1, 2024. Failure to comply may result in citation and civil penalties by the Division of Occupational Safety and Health ("DOSH"). Six Citywide training sessions have been scheduled at various times, dates, and locations to provide the greatest opportunity to train all employees on the new policy. The Labor Code does not require elected officials to be trained on the WVPP. However, the City can provide training on the WVPP to any elected who may be interested. Additional dates are planned subsequent to these sessions to ensure all employees are trained. CITY STRATEGIC PLAN COMPLIANCE: Goal 3: Promote a Quality Workforce Through Teamwork and Organizational Efficiencies Objective 3A: El Segundo is an employer of choice and consistently hires for the future, with a workforce that is inspired, world -class, engaged and innovative. PREPARED BY: Rebecca Redyk, Human Resources Director REVIEWED BY: Rebecca Redyk, Human Resources Director APPROVED BY: Barbara Voss, Deputy City Manager ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS: 1.

B. The Labor Code requires that the Plan include various components, including, but not limited to the following: 1.) identification of the employee responsible for implementing the Plan, 2.) procedures for responding to reports of workplace violence, 3.) procedures for identifying and correcting workplace violence hazards, and 4.) procedures for post -incident responses and investigations. C. The Labor Code also requires the City to record information in a violent incident log for every workplace violence incident and maintain such records for inspection. D. Establishment of a Citywide Workplace Violence Prevention Plan places the City in compliance with the new law. SECTION 2. Approval. The City Council approves the Workplace Violence Prevention Plan attached hereto as Exhibit 'A" which is incorporated by reference. SECTION 3. If any part of this Resolution or its application is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the City Council intends that such invalidity will not affect the effectiveness of the remaining provisions or applications and, to this end, the provisions of this Resolution are severable. SECTION 4. The Mayor, or presiding officer, is hereby authorized to affix his signature to this Resolution signifying its adoption by the City Council of the City of El Segundo, and the City Clerk, or her duly appointed deputy, is directed to attest thereto. SECTION 5. This Resolution will take effect immediately upon adoption and will remain effective unless repealed or superseded. SECTION 6.

Knives, explosives, blunt objects, and physical force can be as deadly as guns. • An active shooter is a person actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people, including at a place of employment. • An emergency involving an active shooter is unpredictable and may happen quickly and unfold rapidly. • You must be prepared to deal mentally and physically with a workplace violence situation, including an emergency involving an active shooter, to protect your life prior to law enforcement arriving at the location where the emergency exists. • Visualize possible escape routes, including the two (2) nearest physically accessible routes to you and your regular work area. Also, take note of accessible routes for people with disabilities or limited mobility. • Familiarize yourself with how to mute your phone and electronics in your area; you may need to do this in an emergency to hide as silently as possible. • Gunfire may sound artificial. Assume that any popping sound is gunfire. • Call 911 when it is safe to do so. Do not assume that someone else has reported the incident. You may have information to provide that may be critical for law enforcement, such as the number or location of shooters or victims; number or type of weapons; and descriptions or identifications. City buildings have life safety features that meet local and state requirements. These systems may include, but are not necessarily limited to, audible fire alarms, smoke 21 Page 162 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B detectors and sprinkler systems that undergo periodic testing to ensure their viability in the event of emergency. Systems may vary and not all systems are in every building. EMERGENCY LIGHTING Some buildings are equipped with emergency lighting in stairwells and other areas. Should there be a disruption of power resulting from a workplace violence incident, back up emergency systems will activate the emergency lights to assist personnel in evacuating the building. SAFETY OFFICERS Safety Officer assignments for each Department are listed in Attachment A. The Safety Officers will ensure employees are evacuated as needed during a workplace violence incident and then account for employees at the designated staging location. If the Safety Officers' personal safety is not compromised, they may also respond to an emergency in their designated work location until law enforcement arrives on the scene. In many facilities, more than one Safety Officer has been designated to accommodate the number of department employees and office area configuration, e.g., multiple floors in the building or buildings with unusual layouts or modules, or additional Safety Officers for each division within a Department. Departments that have separate facilities have assigned a Safety Officer for each building. An alternate Safety Officer may also be designated, or designated as required during an emergency if the Safety Officer is unavailable. It is critical that employees know who their Safety Officer is and understand that this person has been given the authority to make decisions during emergencies. The Safety Officer is responsible for assessing each situation to determine whether an emergency requiring an evacuation exists, and notifying and coordinating with the law enforcement and other emergency responders (see the Safety Officer checklist on page 5 of this Protocol). IN A WORKPLACE VIOLENCE AND ACTIVE SHOOTER EMERGENCY You should react quickly, to determine the most reasonable way to protect your own life, using the RUN, HIDE, OR FIGHT procedures. Pia Page 163 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B RUN Evacuate, If Possible If there is an accessible escape route, attempt to evacuate. • Refer to the maps (Attachment B) in this Protocol to find the closest evacuation route from your workspace to the outdoors. The maps highlight the designated exit route assignments. Some doors have exit signs above the doors and the exit should be wide enough to accommodate the number of evacuating personnel. Exit door should remain unobstructed and clear of debris at all times. Employees must consider that the assigned evacuation route may be hazardous and they will need to select a different route to their staging location. • Leave belongings behind. • If possible, help others escape, and prevent them from entering an area where the aggressor might be. • Be aware of employees with mobility and functional needs who may require additional assistance during an evacuation, and assist them during the emergency evacuation. Ensure any personal assistance equipment, e.g., a wheelchair, is brought with the person to accommodate their needs • But, do not stay behind because others will not go. • Keep your hands visible to law enforcement. • Follow any instructions provided by law enforcement. • Call 911 when it is safe to do so. HIDE Hide as safely and silently as possible If you cannot evacuate safely, find a place to hide. • Choose a hiding place that is: o Out to the aggressor's view. o In the event of an active shooter, an area with protection if shots are fired towards you, such as an office with a closed and locked door. 23 Page 164 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B o A place that does not trap you or restrict your options for movement. • Lock doors, if possible. • Blockade the door (or windows if the active shooter is outside) with heavy furniture or secure it with belts or cords. • Turn off lights. • Turn off or silence phones and other electronics. • Hide behind large items like cabinets or desks. • Dial 911 when it is safe to do so, to alert the police to your hiding place. If you cannot speak, leave the line open to allow the dispatcher to listen. • Stay quiet. FIGHT As a last resort, take action to disrupt or incapacitate the aggressor • As a last resort, and only when your life is in imminent danger, fight within the best of your abilities. • Attempt to incapacitate or disrupt the aggressor. • Act as aggressively as possible towards the aggressor. • Throw or improvise weapons from objects in your area. • Yell. • Commit to your actions. • Call 911 when it is safe to do so. I►ail►Y,14Q1-,%04 '/_12940111119:1:81►[a]IQ4kik$ When you encounter law enforcement officers, display your empty hands, with open palms. M"I Page 165 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B To end an incident, law enforcement may initially need to go past you or wounded people. Rescue teams of officers and emergency medical personnel will provide care and assistance to injured people. They may ask able-bodied individuals for assistance in moving the wounded. Seek medical attention if you are injured or wounded. You may be held in an area by law enforcement unit it is safe and witnesses and been identified and questioned. Do not leave until law enforcement has instructed you to do so. Do not leave without informing a manager or supervisor so that you are accounted for. Consider seeking assistance from a mental health provider. Once an evacuation has been completed, Safety Officers should: • Proceed to the assigned assembly area location for your department (Attachment B). Employees should already be at the location prior to your arrival. • Conduct a roll call of employees from the roster. • Communicate with other employees to determine any employees that were out of the office that day or during that time. • Report to law enforcement the status of your department — whether all employees are accounted for, or who is missing. • Wait for instructions from law enforcement before giving employees the information to re-entering a City building. 25 Page 166 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B Attachment A: Safety Officer Assignments Department Primary Safety Officer Alternate Safety City Hall City Council - Council Chambers Council Executive Assistant CM Executive Assistant City Manager's Office CM Executive Assistant Council Executive Assistant Information Systems Information Systems Manager Finance Fiscal Services Manager Business Services Manager Planning and Building Safety Principal Planner Human Resources Human Resources Technician HR Manager City Clerk's Office/Hall Deputy City Clerk Public Works Engineering Technician Police Department Special Operations Lieutenant Investigations Lieutenant Patrol and Lower Level Lieutenant Jail Areas Watch Commander Fire Station #1 Suppression On -Duty Battalion Chief Administrative Office Fire Marshall Fire Station #2 Entire Facility On -Duty Fire Captain Library Library Senior Librarian Adult Circulation Area Circulation Librarian Reference Area Reference Librarian Maintenance Yard Maintenance Yard Facilities Maintenance Garage and Shop Areas Vehicle Maintenance Office Area, Restrooms, Computer Room Administrative Technician Specialist Water Department Entire Facility Water Supervisor Recreation and Parks Department Checkout Building Recreation Supervisor Clubhouse Recreation Supervisor El Segundo TV ESTV Manager Joslyn Center Joslyn Supervisor Lakes Golf Course General Manager Plunge Recreation Coordinator Recreation Leader IV Teen Center Teen Center Coordinator 26 Page 167 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B Attachment B: Workplace Violence Evacuation Routes • City Hall, Police, Fire Station #1, Clubhouse, Joslyn Center, and Checkout Building, and Teen Center evacuate to Steveson Field _on, �rl • El Segundo Library evacuate to El Segundo Masonic Center Parking Lot (520 Main Street, El Segundo, CA 90245) • I ME.Library T p;A_i-.i06 • El Segundo Water Yard evacuate to George Brett Field i 27 Page 168 of 205 Workplace Violence Prevention Plan Appendix B • Fire Station #2 evacuate to Campus El Segundo Athletic Field if Ow Amn b •r �61OIL • El Segundo Maintenance Facility evacuate to Chevron Employee Park -iAWA rk M 1 1 Page 169 of 205 City Council Agenda Statement F I.

Alternatively, take other action related to this item. FISCAL IMPACT: The City's subsidy for the Solid Waste Fee is $300,000 annually. The fiscal impact, if the City Council does not reimpose the $0.59 per month fee, will be an additional $22,371.04 increase to the City subsidy, raising the City's current subsidy rate of 29.42% to 31.71 %. If the City Council does not reimpose the $0.59, Council would need to appropriate an additional $22,371.04 to the Solid Waste Fund. :1_T61201:tell] z 113 On February 19, 2019, the City Council approved an exclusive residential solid waste franchise agreement with EDCO Disposal Corporation to provide all single-family and two-family dwelling units in the City with solid waste collection services (the "Agreement"). The Agreement has a term of just over ten years, with a scheduled termination date of April 30, 2029. The City has an option to extend the Agreement up to 36 months. The Agreement established the initial service rates effective as of May 1, 2019. The rates are automatically adjusted on May 1 st of each year by the 12-month change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all urban consumers, all items, in the Los Angeles -Long Beach -Anaheim area. Page 189 of 205 Retroactive Decrease of City Subsidy for Residential Solid Waste June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 3 City Council approved the EDCO Agreement and voted to suspend $5.00 of the $20.00 monthly rate that had been authorized during the Proposition 218 process and instead cap at $15.00 the initial monthly service rate to be charged to residential customers. The Council reserved the right to reimpose all or part of the suspended amount at any time. When EDCO began providing services in May 2019, the total monthly rate per unit that it charged for solid waste services was $21.26. Each customer was charged $15.00 per month and the City paid the difference of $6.26 (29.42% subsidy). These rates have increased each year since by an amount equal to the percentage change in the CPI (Los Angeles -Long Beach -Anaheim, All Urban Consumers, All Items) for the prior 12- month period. Current Maximum Rate Per Prop 218 The "current maximum rate" of $23.56 is the maximum authorized monthly rate the City could charge each residential solid waste customer should the suspended portion of the rate be fully reinstated and the entire actual cost of service passed through to each customer. The City does not currently charge this maximum authorized rate. Instead, each customer is charged $18.26 per month and the City subsidizes the difference between that monthly charge and the actual monthly cost of service of $25.87. The "current maximum rate" represents the $20 monthly charge that was authorized through the Proposition 218 process conducted in 2019. With the annual CPI increases approved by the Proposition 218 process, that $20 maximum authorized rate has now risen to $23.56. If the Council chooses not to hold a Proposition 218 process, this would be the maximum rate the City could charge each residential customer unless and until a proposed increase goes through the Proposition 218 process. There could be no further CPI increases, but Council can reimpose a portion of the suspended amount to cover the CPI increases. DISCUSSION: In 2019, City Council approved to suspend $5.00 of the maximum $20.00 that residents could be charged for solid waste collection with EDCO Disposal Corporation in conjunction with a Prop 218 Ballot. Since the five-year period covered by Prop 218 has expired, the City can no longer increase the resident's portion of the bill by the annual CPI, but must now do so by reimposing a portion of the originally suspended amount. The originally suspended $5.00 has grown to $6.09 due to the CPI increases over the years. Since the maximum the City can charge residents has grown from $20.00 to $23.56, there is sufficient capacity for the City to increase the resident portion from the previous $17.67 per month to $18.26 per month (an increase of $0.59 per month) to cover the CPI increase starting with the May 1, 2024, billing period. Page 190 of 205 Retroactive Decrease of City Subsidy for Residential Solid Waste June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 3 The new rate for EDCO effective May 1, 2024, is $25.87 per month, due to the CPI increase. At this time, staff is recommending City Council to reimpose $0.59 of the original subsidy retroactive to May 1, 2024, to cover the CPI increase. If approved, the monthly rate for residents will be $18.26, and the City will pay $7.61 (29.42% subsidy). If not approved, residents will pay $17.67 per month, and the City $8.20 (31.71 %) per month.

The full cost of implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system will be provided when the agreement is presented to City Council at a future regular City Council Meeting. BACKGROUND: Eden Systems, Inc. ("Eden") has been the City of El Segundo's ("City") software solution for enterprise resource planning (ERP) since 1997. It is a vital component of the City's day-to-day operations, and provides services, including budgeting, time keeping, general ledger, accounts receivable, accounts payable, cash management, purchase orders, financial reporting, and human resources. In 2005, Tyler Technologies, Inc. ("Tyler") acquired Eden. Eden's ERP is scheduled to go end -of -life on March 1, 2027. At that time, Eden will no longer be supported by Tyler and will be unable to receive critical security updates needed to run Financial, Human Resource, and Information Technology (IT) operations. DISCUSSION: Since May 2023, the City has been evaluating options for replacement of its citywide ERP system. Numerous options were discussed and ultimately, Tyler's Enterprise ERP solution emerged as the front-runner. Over the course of the last year, Tyler has Page 192 of 205 Update on Replacement of ERP System June 18, 2024 Page 2 of 4 provided several on -site and remote product demonstrations for City staff. As a result of this, Finance, Human Resources, and IT Departments agreed that Enterprise ERP meets the City's requirements for a replacement ERP solution. Specific benefits of Tyler's ERP include: • Human Resources: Human Resources: Enterprise ERP includes a Position Control module which will organize and track the City's workforce by position and provide a comprehensive view of the workforce, including recruiting needs, pay range and headcount. Enterprise ERP will also provide a system to track employee training to ensure compliance. • Finance: Tyler Content Manager (TCM) provides electronic documents and attachments, limiting the need for printing hard copies, duplication of files, and information (financial documents) being available instantly. TCM provides an intuitive user interface for system workflow, such as processing invoices and cash receipts. Tyler's Hub Platform has robust financial reporting, budget tracking, and document retention. Hub Platform consolidates data from multiple sources to support data -driven decision -making and centralized access to information. Tyler's Utilities Pro module simplifies and automates utility billing, monitoring, and reporting and is easy to use and intuitive for the community. • Information Technology: Tyler provides built-in data analytics, reporting and metrics within the software which can easily compile and present data, even from multiple data tables, without having to use a third -party report writer like Crystal Reports. Enterprise ERP is a fully cloud -based solution allowing access from any browser/location. • A large network of cities are already using, or are in the process of moving to, Enterprise ERP, including: Manhattan Beach, Beverly Hills, Newport Beach, Hermosa Beach, Santa Monica, along with over 200 other cities, school districts and other public agencies. The search for and selection of a replacement ERP system typically requires formal bidding — an extended process involving significant staff resources and cost which could take up to one year. An alternative to this approach allows the City Council to approve certain exceptions to competitive bidding requirements. Specifically, El Segundo Municipal Code § 1-7-9 (Exceptions to the Bidding Requirement) authorizes the City Council's waiver of competitive bidding based on certain findings or through the cooperative use of a competitive bidding procedure that another local, state, or federal governmental agency has fulfilled within the last five years. Staff identified a request for proposals (RFP) that Menifee, California had awarded to Tyler for the selection of Enterprise ERP in February 2023, as a result of their search for a replacement in anticipation of the March 1, 2027 end -of -life Eden ERP deadline. The Page 193 of 205 Update on Replacement of ERP System June 18, 2024 Page 3 of 4 total time for Menifee to issue and award their RFP was nearly one year. El Segundo has nearly identical technical needs and requirements as listed in their RFP, including an intuitive user interface, expanded features and capabilities, and enhanced cybersecurity. Menifee is also a long-term user of Eden's ERP. Their RFP detailed numerous improvements of Tyler's Enterprise ERP over the current Eden software, which we also observed throughout multiple onsite and remote demonstrations that were presented to the City by Tyler. Below is a list of some of the enhanced functional components we observed of Tyler's Enterprise ERP compared to the existing Eden system. Module Existing Eden System Enterprise ERP Administration Menu driven module Dashboard, business configuration intelligence tools and expanded native reporting options Budget Preperation Budget input and review Budget input, review, and modules final budget book production. Expanded reporting capabilities General Ledger Limited account structure Additional department options division codes, direct information for ACFR Human Resources and Standard employee set-up Mobile app, electronic time Payroll benefits updates off/vacation request processing, future date changes, history tracking of changes Information Technology On -premises servers and Cloud -based environment databases with complex maintenance procedures For the above reasons, staff recommends Tyler's Enterprise ERP as the Eden replacement solution to be presented for approval at a future City Council meeting.
