ITEM NUMBER: 3.
TITLE
AB361 In Person and Remote Teleconferenced Meetings - December 20, 2022 - January 19, 2022
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu/on reaffirming that, due to the con/nuing COVID-19 Pandemic, a local emergency exists, re-ra/fying the Proclama/on of a State of Emergency by Governor Newsom on March 4, 2020, and authorizing in-person and remote teleconferenced mee/ngs of legisla/ve and advisory bodies of the City of American Canyon for the period of December 20, 2022 - January 17, 2023, pursuant to the Ralph M. Brown Act.

Taresa Geilfuss, CMC, City Clerk
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
Because of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the City Council, as well as the City Planning Commission and Board of Directors of the American Canyon Fire Protec/on District, have been conduc/ng mee/ngs via Zoom teleconference, as allowed by Execu/ve Order N-29-20. However, the Execu/ve Order expired on September 30, 2021.
Assembly Bill 361, which was approved at by the Governor on September 16, 2021, allows local agencies such as the City to con/nue to meet by Zoom or other teleconferencing methods, provided that certain conditions are met.
The effect of Execu/ve Order N-29-20 was to suspend certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Open Mee/ng Act (Government Code Sec/on 54950 et seq.), which only allowed remote teleconference par/cipa/on by City Council Members through a pos/ng process at each teleconferenced member’s loca/on, with agenda provisions indica/ng that each teleconferenced location be accessible to the public.
The aCached Resolu/on complies with the provisions of AB 361 to allow con/nued Zoom mee/ngs of the City Council, while also allowing the mee/ngs to be conducted with in-person aCendance.
This “hybrid” style of mee/ng con/nues to promote social distancing by allowing members of the Council, City Staff, and members of the public to par/cipate in the manner in which they feel most safe, thereby promo/ng public par/cipa/on while simultaneously protec/ng vulnerable members of 8 the public, such as those with compromised immune systems.
The ability to con/nue to meet by Zoom, even in conjunc/on with Open Mee/ngs, can be accomplished by the City Council provided that monthly resolu/ons as agendized are enacted with provisions referencing appropriate confirmation of declared emergencies are described.
Stated plainly, the City Council will have to enact a “361 Resolu/on” at least every 30 days to allow the Zoom teleconferencing procedure to continue.
Changes to the first page of the City Council Agendas were made beginning October 2021, as the means for the public to par/cipate via con/nued Zoom teleconference will have to be described consistent with the AB 361 procedures rather than the now-expired Execu/ve Order N-29-20. These changes indicate that, pursuant to this authority, members of the public and members of the City Council may con/nue to par/cipate by Zoom video/teleconferencing, or alterna/vely par/cipate inperson at the designated physical meeting location.

Code 54950 – 54963), so that any member of the public may attend, participate, and watch the City’s legislative bodies conduct their business; and, WHEREAS, the Brown Act, Government Code section 54953(e), makes provisions for remote teleconferencing participation in meetings by members of a legislative body, without compliance with the requirements of Government Code section 54953(b)(3), subject to the existence of certain conditions; and,
WHEREAS, a required condition for such teleconference meetings is that a state of emergency be declared by the Governor pursuant to Government Code section 8625, proclaiming the existence of conditions of disaster or of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property within the state caused by conditions as described in Government Code section 8558; and, WHEREAS, that proclamation is made when there is an actual incident, threat of disaster, or extreme peril to the safety of persons and property within the jurisdictions that are within the City’s boundaries, caused by natural, technological, or human-caused disasters; and, WHEREAS, that proclamation also requires that state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, or, the legislative body meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees; and, WHEREAS, emergency conditions exist in the City, specifically, a State of Emergency has been proclaimed by Governor Newsom on March 4, 2020, proclaiming a State of Emergency to exist in California because of the threat of COVID-19; and,

WHEREAS, due to the emergence of new variants of COVID-19, such as Delta Variant, followed by the surging Omicron Variant of COVID-19, not all members of the public may feel safe to participate personally at in-person meetings; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that conducting “hybrid” style meetings with the option for members of the public and members of the City Council to attend either virtually or in person would allow participation in a way individuals feel most safe, thereby promoting public participation while simultaneously promoting social distancing and protecting vulnerable members of the public, such as those with compromised immune systems; and, WHEREAS, as a consequence of the local emergency, the City Council does hereby find that City Decision Making Bodies shall conduct their meetings without compliance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of Government Code section 54953, as authorized by subdivision (e) of section 54953, and that such legislative bodies shall comply with the requirements to provide the public with access to the meetings as prescribed in paragraph (2) of subdivision (e) of section 54953; and,

TITLE
Quarterly Investment Report for City and Fire District Fiscal Year 2022-23 Quarter 1
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the City and Fire District’s Treasurer’s Report for the month ended September 30, 2022.
CONTACT
Jemelyn Cruz, Interim Finance Director
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The City’s Investment Policy requires; the Treasurer to submit a quarterly investment report to the City Council. The report(A6achment 1) for the quarter ended September 30,2022 includes investment transac8ons for both the City and Fire District. The report shows the City’s cash and investment book balance, including debt reserves and unspent proceeds, was $72,980,434. The Fire District’s book balance was $4,791,949.
The City’s diversified porAolio includes $43.00 million invested in the California State Treasurer’s Office Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and $23.96 million managed by Chandler Asset Management. The funds managed by Chandler are invested in U.S. Treasury Notes, Federal Agency Securities, Asset Backed Securities, U.S. Corporate Notes, Supranational Securi8es, and FDIC insured Corporate Notes. The lower market value to book value is due to the rising interest rate environment. That is an unrealized number, since the City normally holds investments to maturity. The increasing rate environment also offers an opportunity to invest to achieve higher returns.
The Fire District maintains cash and investment accounts separately from the City. The book value of the District’s total porAolio is $4.79 million. All cash not needed to meet the current opera8onal requirements of the Fire District is invested with Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF).

ITEM NUMBER: 6.
TITLE
106 Wilson Way - Special Assessment Lien Continued from December 6, 2022
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu-on of the City Council of the City of American Canyon c onfirming the report of proceedings and accoun-ng for the costs incurred in aba-ng the public nuisance located at 106 Wilson Way and notice of ordering the imposition of a Special Assessment Lein.
CONTACT
William D. Ross, City Attorney
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
On or about April 9, 2021, a fire par-ally burned the single-family residence located at 106 Wilson Way, in American Canyon, CA, 94503 (the “Property”). During their response firefighters observed excessive amounts of trash and debris in and around the house making it a greater fire hazard as well as more difficult to ex-nguish the fire. City Staff had received mul-ple complaints prior to the fire regarding the condi-on of the Property. City Staff issued mul-ple no-ces of viola-on for numerous health and nuisance violations.
In October 2021 and February 2022, the property, by and through Property Owner’s insurance carrier, was par-ally abated by a private contractor. Since February 2022 health and nuisance viola-ons con-nued and worsened on the Property. Due to the con-nuing and progressively more severe viola-ons, on July 28, 2022, the City ADorney filed an Ex-Parte Applica-on for Inspec-on Warrant and Abatement Order with the Napa County Superior Court. Finding cause to issue, the Court granted and issued the Inspec-on Warrant and Abatement Order on July 29, 2022. City Staff began the process of inspec-ng the property and preparing the abate the public nuisance on the Property. An independent contractor was hired to perform the hazardous abatement of the property and its accumula-on of rubbish, debris, and abandoned, wrecked, or inoperable vehicles.
Due to the extent of the public nuisance the work was not completed until September 27, 2022.
Chapter 9.04 et seq. and 10.36 et seq. of the American Canyon Municipal Code outlines the process for City-led abatement of property and vehicles. The Code requires an itemized report by the City Manager to be filed with the City Council. Following the filing of the report and confirma-on by Council, the City Clerk will deliver the Resolu-ons by cer-fied mail to the Napa County Recorder’s 20 Office to establish special assessment liens for the cost of the abatement. The total cost of aba-ng both the property and the vehicles through September 30, 2022, was $181,016.50.
On November 2, 2022, the City Manager delegated the responsibility of draHing the itemized Report to the City Attorney.
By adop-ng the Resolu-on (ADachment 1) the City Council will authorize the City Clerk to process the filing of the Resolu-on to allow for a special assessment to be placed on the 106 Wilson Way property tax rolls for monies owed to the City for abatement.
The Resolu-on accounts for costs incurred by the City through September 31, 2022. Addi-onal costs will be presented to the City Council for considera-on at future City Council mee-ngs. The City Manager’s Report contains an itemized accoun-ng of expenses incurred through September 30, 2022 (ADachments 2 and 7). The invoices reflec-ng the line items for the expenses incurred are attached as Exhibits 3-10.
On November 15, 2022, the properly scheduled public hearing on this maDer was con-nued to December 6, 2022 on recommenda-on of the City ADorney to allow the Property Owner -me to obtain legal counsel. No-ce was again subsequently given regarding the public hearing and the right to obtain legal counsel. As of the date of this Staff Report, the Property Owner has not indicated he has obtained legal counsel.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City has incurred and been billed for expenses incurred for this abatement. Current bills include City ADorney fees, abatement/cleanup contractor costs, and staff -me costs through September 30, 2022.

Good afternoon Bill,
I have calculated that I’ve spent approximately 875 minutes on enforcement for 106 Wilson Way. My fully burdened hourly rate is $127.99 for code enforcement. Here’s how I did the math:
845 minutes divided by 60 = 14.5 hours x $127.99 = $1,866.52 Please let me know if you need anything else.
Kind regards,

88 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
DECEMBER 20, 2022
STAFF REPORT
BUSINESS
ITEM NUMBER: 7.
TITLE
New Open Space, Active Transportation, and Sustainability Commission
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolu)on recons)tu)ng the Open Space Advisory Commi,ee as the Open Space, Ac)ve Transporta)on, and Sustainability Commission, and approving the Commission's Fiscal Year 2022/2023 Work Plan.
CONTACT
Jason Holley, City Manager
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The City Council formed the Open Space Advisory Commi,ee (OSAC) in 2005. At the )me, the Council sought to recognize local efforts "to improve access to the Napa River, the Wetlands, and Newell Open Space". The Council also sought "to preserve and enhance open space around American Canyon".
In 2010, the Council designated the OSAC as the City's "Bicycle Advisory Commi,ee". Since then, the term "ac)ve transporta)on" has replaced "bicycles" in the parlance of local government professionals because it pertains to a broader array of "human-powered" transportation issues.
Through the hard work of commi,ee members, former and current Councils, and City staff - along with contribu)ons from local, state, and federal partners, and private partnerships - Newell Open Space and the Wetlands are now easily accessible through a system of trails and remain among the most popular des)na)ons for residents and visitors. All the members of OSAC are dedicated to serving the American Canyon community and con)nue to undertake ac)vi)es and projects related to open space, trails, and bicycles.
Reauthorization Resolution
On May 4, the OSAC developed a new dra@ "Reauthoriza)on Resolu)on" and FY 22/23 Work Plan.
The Council reviewed the dra@ Resolu)on/Work Plan and discussed the future of the OSAC at a Joint Special Mee)ng on May 31. Ul)mately, the Council decided to meet with the Parks and Community Services Commission (PCS) prior to making a final decision regarding the OSAC. 89 The Council approved the PCS Commission's FY 22/23 Work Plan during a Joint Special Mee)ng (with PCS) on August 30. On October 5, the Council met again with the OSAC. That night, a Council majority supported re-cons)tu)ng the OSAC as a new "paid commission", with an expanded purview to include open space, ac)ve transporta)on, and sustainability issues. The Council majority further directed staff to solicit input from the current OSAC first, before the further Council consideration.
On November 2, City Manager Holley, Parks and Recrea)on Director Ikeda, and Public Works Director Smithies met with the OSAC to refine the Reauthoriza)on Resolu)on, modify the dra@ FY 22/23 Work Plan, and develop its new name: "Open Space, Ac)ve Transporta)on, and Sustainability Commission" (OSATS). On December 7, the OSAC reviewed the final version of the Resolu)on (A,achment 1) and FY 22/23 Work Plan (A,achment 2). In summary, there is broad consensus among the OSAC Members that the Resolution and Work Plan represent a good path forward.
Roles and Responsibilities
The new Resolu)on builds upon its predecessors while clarifying the OSATS Commission's roles and responsibili)es. Generally, the Commission's role is one of consultancy (to staff) and advisory (to the Council). The Commission reviews and provides comments on various plans and policy documents prepared by staff (and consultants), before they are eventually considered by the Council. The Commission does not "approve" or "reject" items, nor does it take formal ac)ons such as adop)ng Resolu)ons, Ordinances, etc. The OSAC also does not "provide direc)on" to staff, nor does it evaluate staff's performance. In many instances, staff will incorporate the Commission's comments; other )mes staff will not. Regardless of whether any or all of the Commission's comments are incorporated, staff is obligated to bring a record of the Commission's perspec)ve forward (along with public comment) to the Council. The )ming and schedule of items presented to the Commission are at the staff's discre)on and subject to change based on workload and in consideration of City Council priorities.
Once approved by the Council, the Work Plan will guide the Commission's focus. For issues and projects outside of the Work Plan that arise during the year, the Commission should determine whether it is feasible to wait un)l the next year to address the issue. If the Commission determines the issue cannot wait, then a modifica)on of the Work Plan will need to be submi,ed to Council for considera)on. This recommenda)on for modifica)on of the work plan will need to indicate which issues or projects will be postponed or eliminated to accommodate and add the new issue or project to the work plan.
Next Steps
On January 17, 2023, staff an)cipates presen)ng a new Ordinance to Council for considera)on/approval. The Ordinance will codify the existence of the OSATS Commission in the American Canyon Municipal Code (comparable to the PCS Commission and Planning Commission).
Staff assumes the Council favors appoin)ng OSAC members Chris)an, Matson and Ar)s - whose 90 terms don't expire un)l December 2024 - to the new OSATS Commission. A recruitment for two remaining vacancies was opened on December 6, 2022; interviews are an)cipated to take place mid-January 2023, with the posi)ons being filled and seated by the February 1, 2023, OSATS meeting.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Organizational Effectiveness: "Deliver exemplary government services."
FISCAL IMPACT
The annual cost to support the Commission is approximately $20,000 - primarily due to staff costs which are already budgeted. No new staff are proposed in conjunc)on with the Recommended Action.
For the remainder of FY 22/23, there are approximately 5 scheduled mee)ngs. Assuming OSATS Commissioners are treat comparably to PCS and Planning Commissioners, they would receive a $105 s)pend per mee)ng. If the Resolu)on is approved, staff will request a budget transfer in the amount of approximately $6,000 to cover Commissioner s)pends and miscellaneous expenses (purchase of business cards, name tags, and plates, etc.) for the remainder of FY 22/23. This budget transfer will be requested as part of the aforementioned Ordinance on Jan 17, 2023.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
15378(b) - The ac)on is not a "Project" subject to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") because it does not qualify as a "Project" under Public Resources Code Sec)ons 21065 and 21080 and in Section 15378(b) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.

TITLE
Human Resources Annual Presentation
RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file a report on City workforce trends and demographics from the Human Resources Division.
CONTACT
Maria Ojeda, Assistant City Manager
Scott Corey, Human Resources Officer II
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
The Human Resources Division of the City Manager's Office is staffed by (1) Human Resources Officer II and (1) Human Resources Assistant with general execu8ve oversight by Assistant City Manager . The Division is responsible for for a9rac8ng, retaining, and developing a highly qualified and diverse City workforce, and implemen8ng organiza8onal policies and procedures. In addi8on to overall Human Resources and Risk Management administra8on, staff provides the following key services: recrui8ng, classifica8on and pay, risk and workers compensa8on oversight, re8rement and benefits coordina8on, safety and staff development training, policy review and development, and labor/employee relations.
Tonight's presenta8on represents the establishment of an annual repor8ng pa9ern. Last year's report focused on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) concepts and provided ini8al demographic benchmarks to be used for future comparisons. Below are the DEI ini8a8ves currently implemented by the Division to remove barriers to City employment:
DEI training for Human Resources staff
Focus on applicant "knowledge, skills and abili8es" (KSA) rather than educa8on and work history
Acknowledge non-traditional paths to employment
Broaden advertising methods and coordinating outreach efforts to reach diverse audiences.
Matching employment testing methods to KSAs
Diversifying Oral Board membership
Digitizing onboarding materials
Updating new employee checklist
96 Standardizing employee welcome information
In addition, the Division has
Instituted the use of blind applications to further reduce bias in the hiring process Implemented lactation support for growing families
Implemented new minimum wage for 2023
Adapted processes to reflect changes in legal standards Below is an overview of our recruitment ac8vity, workforce demographics, trends related to employee separa8ons and re8rements, an analysis of employee hours worked, and look at what lies ahead in 2023. The figures shown in A9achment 1 provide a graphical representa8on of the data described below.
Recruitment Activity
In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the City transi8oned to a new remote work model, temporarily froze vaca8on requests, ins8tuted employee furloughs. During calendar years 2020 and 2021, 22 employees leD City service (13 re8red) taking with them an average of 11.5 years of institutional knowledge.
The City experienced a correla8ng increase in recruitment ac8vity with 14 recruitments in FY 20/21 and 18 recruitments in FY 21/22. During FY 20/21, 372 people applied for posi8ons (approximately 31 applicants per recruitment). ThereaDer, the number of applicants began to decline as the pandemic wore on and expecta8ons of the workforce began to change. Many workers made decisions to leave the workforce en8rely during this 8me period, either through re8rements or star8ng their own ventures. In FY 21/22, the City received 265 applica8ons (approximately 23 applicants per external recruitment).
This trend is con8nuing into FY 22/23, where the City is receiving an average of 24 applica8ons per external recruitment. Applicants behavior also has become more selec8ve, with fewer accep8ng invita8ons to oral boards or skills tests, an increase in applicants declining job offers and part-8me applicants coming off the market quickly.
Of note, is the increase in internal recruitments, which provide current City employees with career development opportuni8es. Since FY 2017-18, there have been an average of 2 to 3 internal recruitments. In FY 2021-22, there were 6 internal recruitments and so far in FY 2022-23 there have been 5 internal recruitments.
As an organiza8on, we have used these pandemic years to support current employees interested in career advancement through short-term job rota8ons (par8cularly in Finance and the City Clerk's Office), and ac8vely encouraged staff to promote or move into a new field altogether (most evident among Maintenance Workers).

Workforce Demographics
Diversity of the workforce is a mul8-faceted dynamic that can be indicated by factors such as racial/ethnic iden8ty, gender, age, tenure and loca8on of residence. Last year, staff began collec8ng and analyzing City workforce demographic data. A two-year comparison provides limited insight, but it is clear the workforce is generally becoming more diverse and more locally oriented.
Gender
Compared to FY 2021-22, the workforce is 5% more female (44% in FY 2022-23 compared with 39% in FY 2021-22). Males con8nue to comprise a workforce majority with 56% in FY 2022-23 compared with 61% in FY 2021-22 (See Figure 5 in a9achments). In the overall American Canyon community, the binary gender split is 50% male and 50% female, according to U.S. Census data.
These figures represent a tradi8onal binary measure of gender as the City does not currently collect, non-binary gender identity information.
Age
The average age of the full-8me City workforce is 45.92 years, slightly older than the 43.84 years reported in FY 2021-22 (see Figure 6 in the a9achment). The majority of the workforce (68%) is between 40 and 59 years of age, a slight up8ck from 64% in FY 2021-22. This is consistent among men and women. Overall, men in our workforce tend to be slightly older than women.
It is helpful to know that the full CalPERS re8rement age is 55 for Classic employees and 62 for PEPRA employees, with the percentage of PEPRA employees representing about 53%. 98 Tenure
Given the age of the City workforce, it is worthwhile to examine the tenure, or length of service, of our employees (see Figure 7 of the attachment).
Half of the City workforce has been employed by the City for less than 5 years. The other groups breakdown at 15% between 5-10 years, 13% 10-15 years, 21% 15-20 years, and 1% more than 20 years. Compared to FY 2021-22, the trends remain steady, except in the 10-15 year range where there was a 6% decline year over year, and the 15-20 year range with a 3% increase.
The City has experienced a number of re8rements in recent years of long-tenured employees, as indicated by the significant number of rela8vely newly hired employees. But the newer employees were hired in a variety of age ranges, indica8ng that the City remains a9rac8ve to mid-career workers, which tend to have a higher level of experience and professional proficiency.
Place of Residence
A considera8on when evalua8ng how well the full-8me City workforce reflects the overall American Canyon community is the loca8on where City employees choose to live. It is reasonable that one method of helping to ensure the workforce be9er reflects the community is to hire more employees who live in the community.
According to City payroll data, 88% of full-8me employees live in Napa and Solano coun8es; a 2% increase over the prior year. Overall, 59% of full-8me employees live in Napa County (54% in FY 2021-22), and 44% live in American Canyon (unchanged from prior year) (see Figure 8 in the attachment).
Race/Ethnicity
In May 2021, staff conducted a survey asking all full-8me employees to share their racial/ethnic iden8ty. Staff has asked all newly hired employees to provide this informa8on, which the City is required by the federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to maintain.
The year to year results are outlined in the table below:
Racial/Ethnic Identity of City of American Canyon Employees 99 Group
FY22
Percentage
FY23
Percentage
Change
Asian 4% 4% 0%
Black 1% 6% +5%
Hispanic 15% 18% +3%
Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific
Islanders
9% 7% -2%
Two or more 18% 13% -5%
White 53% 51% -2%
While most (51%) of the City’s full-8me workforce iden8fies as White, 47% iden8fies as an ethnic minority.
The table below presents the racial/ethnic iden88es of American Canyon residents as captured in the annual American Community Survey Data collected by the US Census Bureau.
Racial/Ethnic Identity of American Canyon Residents
Group
Percent of
Total
Asian 33%
Native American/Alaskan 1%
Black 7%
Hispanic 31%
Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islanders 1%
Two or more 7%
White 20%
This data indicates that 20% of City residents iden8fy as White while 80% iden8fy as an ethnic minority. These broad snapshot measures indicate that the City's full-8me workforce is racially diverse, but not as diverse as the overall community. Also, staff believes the demographic data above capture employees and residents of Filipino heritage differently (Asian vs. Na8ve Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander).
Workforce Trends
When reviewing a workforce, it can be helpful to consider broad trends such as future re8rements and the number of hours available to perform work.
Retirement
In the next six years, it is likely that the workforce will con8nue to lose senior members as employees age and become eligible for retirement. Currently, 13% of the workforce is eligible for full 100
CalPERS re8rement having reached age 55 for Classic employees or 62 for PEPRA employees. By 2027, that number is expected to increase to 27% (See Figure 9 in the attachments).
While many of these employees will work well past their minimum re8rement age, there will need to be an increasing focus on succession planning and leadership development with each passing year.
Hours Worked
Each year, the City Council adopts a budget authorizing a maximum number of employees assigned to specific departments and divisions within the City organiza8on. But those budgeted full-8me posi8ons don't neatly translate into a maximum number of hours available for work due to staff vacancies and various forms of paid employee leave.
The FY 2021-22 Budget authorizes 79 authorized full-8me posi8ons. Excluding vacancies and paid leave hours, the hours actually worked were equivalent to approximately 53 full-8me posi8ons - or approximately 67.5% of the budgeted alloca8on. Staffing vacancies (14.7%), vaca8on 8me (8.4%), paid holidays (5.4%) and sick leave (3.8%) accounted for the reduction.
Some dynamics impac8ng available work hours in the future will be the use of accrued leave hours for personal and family medical needs, including maternity leave, and rising amounts of accrued vacation time as employee tenures lengthen.
Next Steps
As we con8nue to incorporate diversity, equity and inclusion prac8ces into our Human Resources processes, staff intends to con8nue to create an annual snapshot of similar sta8s8cal measures to continue charting overall trends in the City workforce.
Some of the items the division is planning to incorporate during 2023 include:
Initiate use of LinkeIn Learning platform for staff training Develop management training program
Install NEOGOV.com recruitment tools Insight, Onboarding and GovernmentJobs to replace CalOpps.org
Implement new state laws:
upda8ng California Family Rights Acts and sick leave policies to include "designated person"
updating bereavement leave policies to expand leave to five days updating pre-employment drug testing policy
Staff recognizes that American Canyon is a diverse and welcoming community, and City employees work everyday to provide high-quality services for local residents. This snapshot is only a beginning of our understanding of how we can con8nually improve diversity, equity and inclusion within the City's workforce.

TITLE
Maers rela
ng to the selec
on of Vice Mayor and various City Council commiee appointments for 2023
RECOMMENDATION
Maers rela
ng to the selec
on of Vice Mayor and various City Council commiee appointments for 2023:
1. By Minute Order, nominate and select a Vice Mayor to serve for a one-year term, January to December 2023.
2. By Minute Order, approve the “2023 City Council Appointments List”.
CONTACT
Taresa Geilfuss, City Clerk
BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS
SELECTION OF VICE MAYOR
The City Council has a policy of annually nomina
ng and selec
ng a member of the Council to serve
as Vice Mayor for a one-year term (Resolu
on No. 2008-46). The Mayor, or any member of the City
Council, may nominate any other member of the Council to become Vice Mayor for 2023 with the term beginning January 1, 2023. The nomina
on shall be affirmed by a majority vote of the Council.
The addi
onal du
es of the Vice Mayor are generally; 1) include presiding over mee ngs and signing
documents in the absence of the Mayor; 2) serving on the Finance Commiee (with the Mayor); and 3) Organizing Council's efforts for annual performance evaluation of the Manger and City Attorney.
The Finance Commiee is responsible for reviewing and/or making policy recommenda ons to the
Council as needed on the following areas: Investment Policy; Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) – i.e. the “audit”; Self Insurance Program; Salary and Re rement Policy; Employee
Benefit Policy; Liability Insurance Coverages; Budget; Fiscal and Budget Policy; and Reten on of a
Financial Advisor. The Commiee is expected to meet at least once per quarter on Thursday mornings at 9:00 a.m.
2023 CITY COUNCIL APPOINTMENTS
Annually, the City Council reviews its members’ assignments to various boards and commiees.
When considering par
cular assignments, it is important to note that the appointee may be 107
predesignated for a certain board or commiee. For example, the City’s Finance Commiee appointments are pre-designated by the City’s Governance Protocols to be the Mayor and ViceMayor. In addi on, the Mayor is designated as one of the City’s two representa ves to the Board of
the Napa Valley Transportation Authority.
Moreover, it is important to consider many of these assignments require commitment of me (both
aending mee
ngs and reviewing materials). As Council members par
cipate, they become more
educated on the particular subject matter(s) that is the purview of these boards and commissions.
Thus, the assignments can represent an “investment” made by the assigned councilmember. While changing assignments is within the sole discre
on of a majority of the Council (notwithstanding the
afore-men
oned pre-designa
ons), such past investment (and/or the prospect of new investment) should be weighed when proposing any changes.
That said, in the right context, change of assignment can represent a healthy evolu on of knowledge
and experience for councilmembers and should also be given considera on during the Council’s
delibera
on. In addi
on, the amount of investment any par
cular Councilmember is able to make
various for personal reasons. For example, Councilmembers who are employed full- me and/or
have children in their home are less likely to have
me to invest when compared to
Councilmembers who are re
red and/or who do not have child-rearing commitments. Lastly, the virtual public mee
ngs have been normalized over the past 30 months, but new legisla on requires
many of these bodies to conduct in-person mee
ngs star
ng next March. With the conveniences of
virtual mee
ngs stripped away by the Legislature, elected officials will be forced to aend these meetings in-person.
Appointments for 2023
Last year, the Council approved the “2022 Commiee Appointments List” shown in Aachment 1.
Staff recommends the Council review the 2022 List and either approve it “as-is” for 2023, or approve any changes by Minute Order.
COUNCIL PRIORITY PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS
Organizational Effectiveness: "Deliver exemplary government services."
FISCAL IMPACT
The Recommended Actions will have no impact on the City’s Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

Event Type Committee Report
Event Title:* Climate Action Activities
Event Report: Attended a planning meeting with rep's from Napa Valley College about a Healthy People/Healthy Planet event on 2023 Earth Day. This was an activity I helped create years ago, combining Earth Day and Health Fair components. We might even add Healthy Palate, and add healthy food items (including lower GHG emission foods, too!). We're exploring groups that might want to partner with the College, including the City, School District and community groups.
Also attended the Ad Hoc Climate Action Committee. We finalized a student survey and PowerPoint presentation for our interim Climate Action Plan. We will use the survey to kick start a Climate Action Challenge at the High School, starting Jan. 10, 2023. This will use the newly acquired Napa County Climate Challenge App (assesses your Carbon Footprint; gives you ways to lower that footprint; and allows you to join teams to collectively reduce our footprint). We will use the survey to help Students For Climate Action (S4CA) craft their new project (now that we have banned new gas stations) towards their Fossil Free Future program. Lastly, the PowerPoint will be used to build community support and gain feedback on the interim Climate Action Committee. We will probably present it to the new OSATS Commission, and then reach out to community groups.
The ad hoc committee will likely disband in the near future and the members will likely reform themselves into a new community group that advocates for stronger Climate Actions in American Canyon.

Event Title:* American Canyon Arts Foundation
Event Report: A number of exciting projects are moving forward! Mosaic Project: the pandemic put this project on hold but we want to get it done and presented to the Boys & Girls Club. We have reconnected with Nimbus who helped us get as far as we are, and hope to finish up the framing by Spring. That will set the stage for an installation event near the Club's Fifth anniversary.
Holiday Boutique: We got a late start, but we have plenty of See's Candies ready for purchase! We're located this year next to RoundTable Pizza and plan on a Holiday Party on Saturday, Dec. 17, from 6-8pm.
Arts & Culture Programs: One of the Foundation's ongoing programs is celebrating the art and culture of our community. We have two events planned. First is a Parol Festival, produced by the FilAm Club of American Canyon (and sponsored by ACAF, thanks to a County grant)--it will be Saturday, Dec. 17 starting at 3pm. The flyer is attached. We are also partnering with the Napa Valley College's Kasaysayan Learning Center. This time to host a young Filipino Artist, Taipan Lucero, on January 20, 2023 from 6-7pm. This will take place at the College's classrooms at the High School. Flyer attached.
Plans for 2023: Save the Date for our annual Membership Dinner Meeting, tentatively set for Sunday evening, January 29. We will also conduct our annual planning retreat earlier that month.

Great turnout and great food--as the Manager said, nice that we have great restaurants in town so we have good food and keep it local! Supervisor Ramos' Food Drive: Not quite a City event, but close enough! Got a chance to share some holiday cheer and clean out the pantry!
Farm Bureau Holiday Reception: This was held to honor departing Supervisors Wagenknecht and Dillion. Also a good opportunity to chat with other regional leaders.
Napa Valley Transportation Authority: Although we didn't meet as a board, Liz Alessio and I met with Kate Miller to finish up her annual performance review--thanks to Liz' efforts, this was the first time it was completed on time! File/Photo Upload Max file size for all uploads is 10 MB Event

Kiwanis Food Drives: Even though I didn't do much in this arena, thanks to Nance Matson & Sande Sutter, we are collecting a great amount of food for the Pantry.

Dine and Donate for SI: Cheryl and I had a great dinner at Laso and helped the Soroptimists in the process. Also purchased some wine as well.
Napa County Democratic Central Committee meeting: Attended the monthly meeting, and it was mostly focused on internal issues, such as the upcoming California Democratic Party's convention and nominating NCDCC officers for next year.
