Date: January 20, 2026

I SUBJECT
Lot line adjustment and transfer of a portion from the alley adjacent to City Hall to Michael Hubert, as trustee of the Hubert Family Trust

I RECOMMENDATION

1. Receive a Staff Report;

2. Receive Public Comment;

3. Closed Session report out for City of Anderson, et al, v. Haggin, et al. that City of Anderson received a judgment quieting title to the alley adjacent to City Hall.

4. Approve lot line adjustment and transfer of a portion from the alley adjacent to City Hall to Michael Hubert, as trustee of the Hubert Family Trust
!FISCAL IMPACT
The city has determined that the costs are nominal, as Mr. Hubert bore the costs associated with the quiet title transfer and lot line adjustment.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
Prior to 2024, the City of Anderson believed that it owned the alley directly adjacent to City Hall, between City Hall and the Anderson Fire Protection District/Mike's Auto Body. A title report obtained in 2024 established that the true owner of the alley was James Haggin, who ITEM 8.2 PAGE1 1/20/2026
26 had taken title to the property in the late 1800s. Based on this discovery, the City of Anderson, the Anderson Fire Protection District and Michael Hubert, as trustee of the Hubert Family Trust (owner of Mike's Auto Body) filed a quiet title lawsuit in Shasta County to establish ownership of the alley. This was authorized by the City Council in closed session.

On September 8, 2025, the City Attorney appeared in front of Judge Hanna, along with legal counsel for Mr. Hubert, and obtained a default judgment for the alley. The result of the judgment is that the City owns half of the alley directly adjacent to its property line, and the other half is now owner by the Anderson Fire Protection District and Mr. Hubert.

A small portion of the structure from Mike's Auto Body encroaches onto the City of Anderson half of the alley. Mr. Hubert has offered to pay all costs associated with a lot line adjustment in exchange for the City transferring the encroaching portion to Mr. Hubert.

While the City Council has approved this request in closed session, finding the resolution to be in the public interest, Government Code section 54957.1 requires a report out to occur in open session, and a vote is needed for the transfer.

Further, it is agreed and understood that the City shall not impose any lockout.

6.2 The Association recognizes the duty and obligation of its representatives to comply with the provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding, and to make every effort toward inducing all employees to do so. In the event of a strike, work stoppage, slowdown, or other interference with the operations of the City by employees who are represented by the Association, the Association agrees in good faith to take all necessary steps to cause those employees to cease such action.

6.3 It is agreed and understood that any employee violating this Article may be subject to discipline up to and including termination by the City.

ARTICLE 7
Grievance Procedure

7.1 Any grievance, which may arise between an employee and the City with respect to the interpretation or application of any of the terms of this Memorandum of Understanding, or with respect to the interpretation or application of the Anderson Police Department Policy Manual (as set forth in Section 1003 of that Policy Manual) and with respect to such matters as the alleged discriminatory or arbitrary discharge, demotion or discipline of an individual regular employee, shall be determined by the provisions of this Article. Probationary employees shall not be entitled to process grievances with respect to matters of discharge, demotion, or discipline. This shall not, however, prevent a probationary employee from enforcing any other rights under this Memorandum of Understanding. Grievant as used herein is defined as an employee or group of employees of the City or the Association.

7.2 Step One: The initial step in the adjustment of a grievance shall be a discussion between the grievant or the grievant's representative and the Police Lieutenant or Captain, who will answer within ten (10) days. This step shall be started within thirty (30) days of the date of the action complained of, or the date the grievant became aware of 5 110
the incident, which is the basis for the grievance. This step may be taken during the working hours of the grievant.

7.3 Step Two: If a grievance is not resolved in the first step, the second step shall be the presentation of the grievance in writing by either the grievant or the grievant's representative to the Chief of Police, who shall answer, in writing, within twenty (20) calendar days. The second step shall be taken within ten (10) calendar days of the date of the answer in Step One. The written presentation shall be a clear, concise statement of the grievance, the circumstances involved, the pertinent dates, the decision rendered at the previous step, the section of this Memorandum of Understanding alleged to be violated, and the specific remedy sought.

7.4 Step Three: If a grievance is not resolved in the second step, the third step shall be the presentation of the grievance, in writing, by either the grievant or the grievant's representative to the City Manager, who shall answer, in writing, within twenty (20) calendar days. The third step shall be taken within ten (10) calendar days of the date of the answer in Step Two. The written presentation shall be a clear, concise statement of the grievance, the circumstances involved, the pertinent dates, the decision rendered at the previous step, the section of this Memorandum of Understanding alleged to be violated, and the specific remedy sought.

7.5 Step Four: If a grievance is not resolved in the third step, the fourth step shall be referral by the Association to mediation (if mediation is mutually agreed to by the City and the Association) within twenty (20) calendar days of the answer in Step Three.

Whenever a grievance is referred to mediation, either party may request that the California State Mediation and Conciliation Service refer a state mediator. The state mediator shall assist the parties in the resolution of the grievance in the same manner as that which is normally used in the mediation of interest disputes. Referral to Step Five shall not occur until a mediator has released the parties from the mediation process. If mediation is not mutually agreed to by the City and the Association the Association may refer the grievance to Step Five within 20 days of the denial of mediation by the City or the Association.

7.6(a) Step Five: If a grievance is not resolved in the fourth step, the fifth step shall be referral by the Association to arbitration. The fifth step shall be taken within twenty (20) days of the date of the answer in Step Four.

7.6(b) An arbitrator shall be appointed on each occasion that a grievance is submitted to arbitration. In the event that the City and Association are unable to agree on the selection of an arbitrator, they shall request the State of California Mediation and Conciliation Service to nominate five (5) persons to be the arbitrator. The City and Association each will alternately challenge two (2) of such nominees, the party having the first challenge to be determined by lot. The remaining nominee shall be accepted as the arbitrator, and his compensation and expenses shall be borne equally by the City and Association. The City and the Association shall pay the compensation and expenses of their respective appointees and witnesses.

process. Expense items such as court reporters, transcripts, or room rent shall be borne equally by the parties.

7.6(c) The arbitrator shall hold such hearings and shall consider such evidence as to the arbitrator appears necessary and proper. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on the City, Association, and the aggrieved employee, provided, however, that such decision shall not in any way add to, disregard or modify any of the provisions of this Memorandum of Understanding.

7.6(d) Grievances referred to arbitration that are appeals of disciplinary suspensions of five days or less, or a disciplinary action with an equivalent dollar value, shall be subject to expedited arbitration, with no court reporters, and an immediate bench decision made by the arbitrator.

7.7 Failure by the grievant or the Association to meet any of the aforementioned time limits will result in forfeiture of the grievance. Except, however, that the aforementioned time limits may be extended by mutual agreement. Failure by the City or its representative to meet any of the aforementioned time limits will allow the grievant or the Association, as applicable, to proceed to the next step of the grievance procedure.

7.8 Any employee may present grievances in accordance with this Article without the intervention of the Association, so long as the adjustment is reached prior to arbitration and is not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Memorandum of Understanding and further provided that the City shall not agree to a resolution of the grievance until the Association has received a copy of the grievance and the proposed resolution and has been given the opportunity to file a response.

7.9 A grievant shall in no way interfere with the right of the City to proceed in carrying out its management responsibilities subject to a final decision on the grievance. In the event, the grievance involved an order, requirement, or other directive, the grievant shall fulfill or carry out such order, requirements or directives, pending the final decision of the grievance.

Shift employees' workweek may begin on any day of the week or any shift of the day. The foregoing work hours, workdays, and work schedules may, however, be modified from time to time by the Chief of Police as he determines necessary by the needs of the service. Prior to each four ( 4) month period beginning with the first day of a pay period closest to January 1, May 1, and September 1 each year, the City shall post the shift schedule for each position. Employees shall then indicate their preference for a work schedule. Insofar as is practicable and consistent with the needs of the service, the City shall assign work days and work hours, giving first consideration to employees' preferences in the order of employee's seniority in rank. Seniority in rank shall mean the senior Police Officer shall have preference among the classification of Police Officer. Sergeants and Police Officers shall bid separately. Except as otherwise approved by the Chief of Police, employees will be prohibited from remaining on the same shift for more than two (2) consecutive four ( 4) month periods. Whenever it becomes necessary to reschedule any employee's workdays and/or work hours, the Chief of Police will give as much notice as possible. The City will not reschedule individual employees solely for the purpose of avoiding overtime work. 12 117

12.2(c) For those employees who are assigned to a twelve-hour shift work schedule, the regular biweekly shift schedule shall consist of one eight (8) hour shift and six twelve (12) hour shifts with a meal break.

Shift employees' workweek may begin on any day of the week or any shift of the day. The foregoing work hours, workdays, and work schedules may, however, be modified from time to time by the Chief of Police as he determines necessary by the needs of the service. Prior to each four ( 4) month period beginning with the first day of a pay period closest to January 1, May 1, and September 1 each year, the City shall post the shift schedule for each position. Employees shall then indicate their preference for a work schedule. Insofar as is practicable and consistent with the needs of the service, the City shall assign work days and work hours, giving first consideration to employees' preferences in the order of employee's seniority in rank. Seniority in rank shall mean the senior Sergeant shall have preference among Sergeants and the senior Police Officer shall have preference among the classification of Police Officer. Sergeants and Police Officers shall bid separately, Sergeants identified by name first. Except as otherwise approved by the Chief of Police, employees will be prohibited from remaining on the same shift for more than two (2) consecutive four (4) month periods. Employees shall not work more than sixteen (16) consecutive hours in a twenty-four-hour period, unless directed by the Chief of Police.

Whenever it becomes necessary to reschedule any employee's workdays and/or work hours, the Chief of Police will give as much notice as possible. The City will not reschedule individual employees solely for the purpose of avoiding overtime work.

12.2(d) During the term of this Memorandum of Understanding, the City and Association may meet and confer to propose and consider adopting possible modifications to work schedules.

12.3(a) For those employees assigned to an eight (8) hour workday or a ten (10) hour workday, Overtime is defined as: (a) time worked in excess of eight (8), or ten (10) hours in a workday, (the ten hour workday shall apply only to the workforce assigned to a four day, ten hour workday); (b) time worked on a non-workday; and (c) time worked on a holiday.

12.3(b) For those employees who are assigned to a twelve-hour shift work schedule, overtime shall not be accrued until an employee works more than twelve hours on a scheduled twelve-hour work shift or more than eighty hours in a fourteen day work period.

An employee who works more than eight hours on the one scheduled eight-hour work shift shall accrue overtime after eight hours worked. It is the intent of the parties not to permit the twelve-hour shift schedule to cause regularly scheduled overtime to occur due to Federal Fair Labor Standards Act provisions. As such, the "work period" for the twelve13 118
hour shift work schedule under the Act shall be a fourteen-day work period beginning and ending on Saturdays at 0600 hours.

12.4 Compensation for overtime work shall be paid at a rate equivalent to one and one-half (1-1/2) times the employee's regular rate of pay or at the employee's option, providing it is legally permissible, the employee may elect to receive time off with pay at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) hours off for each overtime hour worked. The maximum accumulation of compensatory time off shall be one hundred sixty (160) hours.

Compensatory time off with pay shall be scheduled in the same manner as vacations are normally scheduled.

If an employee who is called out for such work outside of the employee's regular hours on a workday continues to work into their regular work hours, the employee shall be paid overtime compensation only for the actual overtime worked. If an employee performs overtime work immediately following the end of the employee's regular shift, the employee shall be paid overtime compensation only for the actual overtime worked. Planned and scheduled overtime events do not qualify for call back pay with the exception of court. Court Cancellation: An employee shall receive a minimum of 3 hours of straight time pay compensation if court appearance is cancelled within 48 hours of scheduled appearance. This section only applies to employees whom are not working during the court requested appearance. Employees shall not schedule vacation or watch exchanges in order to receive compensation under this article.

12.6 Overtime work shall be distributed as equitably as is practicable among those employees who are qualified and available and who volunteer for overtime work and the City shall not require employees who have worked overtime to take equivalent time off during regular work hours without pay.

12.7(a)Whenever the Chief of Police designates an employee as the shift relief employee, such employee shall be paid five percent (5%) more than the employee's basic wage rate as compensation for being required to move from shift to shift with short notice for relief purposes. Whenever such employee is not relieving another employee, said employee shall be assigned to a shift as established by the Chief of Police. No employee will be required to function as the shift relief employee for more than eight (8) consecutive months without the employee's agreement.
14 119

12.7(b) Whenever an employee is assigned to work graveyard shift, such employee shall be paid five percent (5%) more than the employee's basic wage rate.

12.8 Employees may trade work shifts with each other provided the employees involved give advance notice of their intent to the City and receive prior approval of the Chief of Police, or the Chiefs designee, and there is no overtime payment required by the City. Denials of shift trades by the Chief shall be final and not subject to the grievance procedure set forth in Article 7.

12.9 As set forth in "Exhibit A", note 1, Canine Officers shall be required to spend one-half (1/2) hour per day, in addition to regular hours, in the routine care and maintenance of their police dog. Whenever it becomes necessary for the Canine Officer to perform extraordinary care and maintenance service with their dog, with prior City approval, the Canine Officer shall receive compensation in addition to the regularly scheduled one-half (1/2) hour per day. Additionally, whenever an employee is assigned as Canine Officer, the employee shall be paid special duty premium pay as set forth in "Exhibit A", note 2.

ARTICLE 13
Promotion and Transfer

13.1 All promotions and transfers shall be in accordance with standards and procedures as determined by the City.

13.2 Specialty positions and promotional testing procedures will be a fair, unbiased, and comprehensive process to evaluate candidates' overall attributes from the classification and duties involved. Promotions are not based on entitlement (time in grade, educational achievements, etc.), but rather selected for character traits, merit and performance. The Chief of Police retains the right to select the candidate most appropriate for the promotion from within the top three ranked tested positions (for a candidate pool of 7 or less) or select from the top 5 positions (for a candidate pool of more than 7).

ARTICLE14
Demotion and Layoff

14.1 When it becomes necessary for the City to layoff regular employees, the City will give employees involved as much notice as possible; but in no event will such employees receive less than two (2) weeks' notice of layoff. Where probationary, temporary, or part-time employees are to be laid off, no notice of layoff need be given.

Within each classification, all employees, other than regular employees, shall be laid off prior to regular employees being laid off. Regular employees shall be laid off in the reverse order of seniority in the classification with the least senior employee being laid off first.

Whenever two or more regular employees in a classification have the same period of 15 120
classification seniority, ties will be broken by giving greater preference to the employees in the order of seniority in all classifications in the bargaining unit.

14.2 An employee whose position has been abolished may elect to displace an employee in a lower-paid classification in the bargaining unit provided the employee has greater combined seniority in all classifications in the bargaining unit than the employee to be displaced. Employees who elect to demote to a lower-paid classification shall be probationary for six (6) months unless the employee has previously served at least six (6) months in the new classification. Whenever an employee demotes to a lower-paying classification, the employee shall be placed on the salary step which has a wage rate closest to the employee's previous wage rate.

14.3 Laid-off employees' names shall be kept on a re-employment list for a period of one (1) year from the date of layoff, and shall have preferential re-hire rights to the classification from which laid off in the reverse order of layoff. Whenever it becomes necessary for the City to notify a laid off employee of a re-employment opportunity, the City shall do so by use of registered mail to the employee's last known address. If an employee does not accept such offer of re-employment, the employee's name shall be removed from the re-employment list and the employee shall no longer have re-employment rights.

14.4 Employees who have elected to demote into a lower paying classification shall have preferential promotion rights to the classification from which they demoted in the reverse order of demotion for a period of one year from the date of the employee's demotion. If an employee does not accept an offer of promotion to the classification from which the employee was demoted, the employee will lose all preferential rights to repromotion.

conjunction with the granting of a leave of absence. Upon an employee's return to work after a leave of absence, the employee will be reinstated to the employee's former position and working conditions, providing that the employee is capable of performing the duties of the employee's former position, except that if there has been a reduction of forces or the position has been eliminated during said leave, the employee will be returned to the position the employee would be in, had the employee not been on a leave of absence.

15.4 An employee's status as a regular employee will not be impaired by such leave of absence and the employee's seniority will accrue.

15.5 If an employee fails to return immediately on the expiration of the employee's leave of absence or if the employee accepts other full-time employment while on leave, the employee will thereby forfeit the leave of absence and terminate employment with the City.

15.6 An employee on a leave of absence as provided herein shall not accrue vacation or sick leave benefits nor maintain group insurance coverage. An employee may, however, at the employee's option and expense, maintain the employee's group insurance coverage providing the full monthly premium is received by the City on or before the first day of the month for which the premium is intended.

Employee Benefit Programs

26.l(a) Retirement Plan: Regular and probationary employees hired prior to a contract amendment of the City's contract with PERS for Safety employees, are covered by a State of California Public Employee's Retirement System program integrated with Social Security pursuant to an existing contract with the Public Employees' Retirement System.

The basic benefit formula is known as 3% at age 50(Classic). Employee pays the employee's normal nine (9) percent cost for participation in the Public Employees' Retirement System program. At the employee's expense, the military service credit buy back option provision is provided.

26.l(b) A second retirement tier of 3% at age 55, and highest consecutive 36 months, through the Public Employees' Retirement System shall be effective for those employees hired after the City amends its contract with PERS for Safety employees.

Employees hired under the 3% at age 55 formula will also pay their normal nine (9) percent member contribution for participation in the Public Employees' Retirement System program. All other retirement benefits remain the same as those employees covered under the first tier formula.

26.1 (c) The State of California has mandated that all new employees entering the CalPERS system for the first time shall fall under specific formulas. The formula that the State has mandated for Safety personnel for the City of Anderson is 2.7% @ 57 (PEPRA).

Employees covered by this formula shall pay 50% of the total normal cost, as determined by CalPERS. Effective the pay period following such time that the CalPERS retirement contract can be amended pursuant to Government Code section 20516(a), unit employees will pay an additional 3 o/o of reportable compensation towards the CalPERS Employer Contribution to the PERS pension, in addition to the employee's contribution share, through payroll deduction on a pre-tax basis. In the event that 50% of normal costs plus 27 132
3% exceeds a total of 17% member contribution to the PEPRA members, the City and APOA agree to re-open negotiations to discuss further cost sharing possibilities.

26.l(d) The California Public Employee's Retirement System plans with the benefit formula of 3% at age 50, 3% at age 55, and 2. 7% at 57 are integrated with Social Security.

26.l(e) Effective January 1, 2021, employees in the Classic or Second Retirement tier, in addition to paying their 9% member contribution, employees shall pay 3% of normal costs for a total pre-tax contribution of 12%.

26.2(a) Group Insurance: All regular and probationary employees and their dependents are eligible to participate in a group insurance benefit program consisting of medical, dental, vision, life, and disability benefits effective the first day of the month following employment. The City shall pay 93.3% of the premium cost of the benefits set forth above, and employees shall pay 6.7% of the premium cost of the benefits set forth above. The employee share shall be paid by each employee by automatic payroll withholding. Effective 1/01/2015 employees and the City shall split (50/50) any future premium increases.

26.2(b) Long-term Disability Insurance: All regular and probationary employees are eligible to participate in a long-term disability insurance benefit program effective the first day of the month following employment at the City's expense. Following a ninety-day elimination period, the benefits are 66-2/3 of the employee's base salary.

26.2(c) The City may, at its option, change insurance carriers, claims administrators, or make minor revisions to the benefit structure of the group insurance benefit program set forth in 26.2(a) above, providing, however, that the benefit structure remains substantially equivalent to the current program. Prior to any such changes, however, at the Association's request the City will consider recommendations of the Association relative to alternatives.

26.3 The City shall offer employees a Section 125 benefit plan.

26.4 Police Recruits are "PEPRA" Employees Pursuant to the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act of 2013 ("PEP RA"). Regular Police Recruit employees hired after January 1, 2013 who do not otherwise meet the definition of a "Classic CalPERS Member" will be covered by the two percent (2.0%) at age sixty-two (62) retirement benefit formula with the 36 highest paid consecutive month's final compensation provision as a "New CalPERS Member". This is not within the retirement system for general Safety employees.

AGENDA ITEM
January 20, 2026 City Council Meetin~
d for Submittal By:
anager
To Be Presented By:

Cindy Wheeler, Finance Director
To:

Through:

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Anderson City Council Joey Forseth-Deshais, City Manager
From: Cindy Wheeler, Finance Director
Date: January 20, 2026

I SUBJECT
Amend Budget for New Business License Software Program Purchase

I RECOMMENDATION
The Finance Director recommends that the City Council:

1. Receive a staff report;

2. Receive public comment;

3. Authorize the Finance Director to contract with Tyler Technologies for new business license software.

4. Adopt a Resolution Amending the Finance Department Budget to purchase new business licensing program.

I FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact of this amendment is $12,485.00 for the Fiscal Year 2025/2026.

I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
The Finance Department has utilized the HdL Business Licensing program since 2004. Over time, technical support for this system has significantly declined, resulting in extended ITEM 8.5 PAGE1 1/20/2026
182
delays when assistance is required while HdL locates an available representative. In addition, HdL operates as a stand-alone system. After business license applications and renewal payments are received, staff must manually re-enter the information into the HdL software. As the number of businesses in the City of Anderson has increased, this duplicate data entry has led to a processing backlog of approximately 30 to 60 days before licenses can be issued to businesses. Although software upgrades are available, the associated costs are prohibitively high and not financially feasible for the City.

The finance staff viewed three different software options to explore what would best fit our needs. HdL demonstrated their upgrade and quoted us $20,000. CivicPlus also provided a demonstration but failed to provide us with a quote. These two vendors still would have left us with the double-entry step. The third option was from Tyler Technologies. The City's current financial system, Tyler Technologies ERPro 9, offers an integrated Business Licensing module that directly interfaces with the General Ledger. Implementing this module would streamline workflows, reduce manual data entry, and significantly improve efficiency within the Finance Department. Additionally, the Tyler Technologies licensing module would allow businesses to apply for and renew licenses online through the City of Anderson's website, further improving service delivery for both staff and the business community.

The cost for the Tyler Technologies Business Licensing module includes a one-time implementation fee of $5,206.00 and an annual recurring fee of$7,279.00. The current HdL software costs $4,348.74 annually and increases by approximately 4% each year. To ensure continuity of operations during the transition period, it is necessary to maintain access to the existing system.

Therefore, staff is requesting a budget amendment of $12,485.00 to cover the full cost of the new software and implementation while the transition is being completed.

Additionally, in a future City Council meeting, staff intends to provide a proposal to Council updating the municipal code, section 5.04.260, changing business license renewals from corresponding to the fiscal year, to annually from the month of the initial licensing for all new businesses.
