================================================================ ** Workers in this classification may be entitled to a higher minimum wage under Executive Order 14026 ($15.00) or 13658 ($11.25). Please see the Note at the top of the wage
determination for more information.
Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the EO, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year.
Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at
https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts.
Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (ii)).
----------------------------------------------------------------
The body of each wage determination lists the classification and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the cited type(s) of construction in the area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order of ""identifiers"" that indicate whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate for local), a survey rate (weighted average rate) or a union average rate (weighted union average rate).
Union Rate Identifiers
A four letter classification abbreviation identifier enclosed in dotted lines beginning with characters other than ""SU"" or ""UAVG"" denotes that the union classification and rate were prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example:
PLUM0198-005 07/01/2014. PLUM is an abbreviation identifier of the union which prevailed in the survey for this
classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e., Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. 07/01/2014 is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate, which in this example is July 1, 2014.
Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all rate changes in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing this classification and rate.
Survey Rate Identifiers
Classifications listed under the ""SU"" identifier indicate that no one rate prevailed for this classification in the survey and the published rate is derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As this weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SULA2012-007 5/13/2014. SU indicates the rates are survey rates based on a weighted average
calculation of rates and are not majority rates. LA indicates the State of Louisiana. 2012 is the year of survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 5/13/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
Survey wage rates are not updated and remain in effect until a new survey is conducted.
Union Average Rate Identifiers
Classification(s) listed under the UAVG identifier indicate that no single majority rate prevailed for those
classifications; however, 100% of the data reported for the classifications was union data. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010
08/29/2014. UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the state. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. 08/29/2014 indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier.
A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January of each year, to reflect a weighted average of the current negotiated/CBA rate of the union locals from which the rate is based.

WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS
1.) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be:
* an existing published wage determination
* a survey underlying a wage determination
* a Wage and Hour Division letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter
* a conformance (additional classification and rate) ruling On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be with the Wage and Hour National Office because National Office has responsibility for the Davis-Bacon survey program. If the response from this initial contact is not satisfactory, then the process described in 2.) and 3.) should be followed.
With regard to any other matter not yet ripe for the formal process described here, initial contact should be with the Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Write to:
Branch of Construction Wage Determinations
Wage and Hour Division

CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: January 9, 2023
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Greg Thompson, Community Development Director
PREPARED BY: Christina Thurman, Executive Assistant
SUBJECT: Presentation regarding re-tasking of Broadway Avenue including discussion and possible direction regarding retasking (Community Development Director Thompson)
RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
BACKGROUND:
The Broadway Re-tasking project seeks to promote walkability, flexibility, and access in the Atwater downtown area along Broadway Avenue from Winton Way to Second Street. Broadway Avenue is currently a two-way single lane road through downtown Atwater with parallel parking on either side of the street. Pedestrian bulb-outs with ADA compliant ramps have been installed at each intersection, allowing for safer and shorter pedestrian crossings while helping to promote lower speeds throughout the area.
Staff has been working with consulting firm GHD,Inc. to draft a conceptual design that not only promotes walkability, flexibility, and access in the Downtown area but also promotes pedestrian safety and increases parking in the downtown area. To achieve this goal, GHD was asked to develop concepts where Broadway Avenue would be reconfigured to eliminate westbound traffic along the corridor and provide new parking and sidewalk widening options.
On November 30, 2022, this item was presented to the Planning Commission.
ANALYSIS:
GHD found that implementing the use of 45 degree stalls along the new one-way corridor allowed for sidewalk widening opportunities while minimizing the amount of parking stalls lost. The 45 degree stalls can be installed on either the north or south side of the street and further discussion is needed to determine the preferred configuration.
Sidewalk widening may be installed on the side opposite the parking stalls. The figures and exhibits attached to this report illustrate these two configurations. Additionally, it is

Agenda Report - Page 2
recommended that median curb planters be installed at the intersections to discourage wrong way movements onto Broadway. Landscaping in these planters should remain low to the ground as to not block sight lines of drivers approaching the intersection.
Appropriate signage shall also be provided to direct drivers in the correct direction.
II. FISCAL IMPACTS:
No negative fiscal impacts are anticipated with the approval of this project.
This item has been reviewed by the Finance Department.
III. LEGAL REVIEW:
This item has been reviewed by the City Attorney’s Office IV. EXISTING POLICY:
This item is consistent with goal number two (2) of the City's Strategic Plan: to ensure to improve public safety.
V. ALTERNATIVES:
Other parking alternatives GHD conceptualized were the following:
• Back-in angled stalls instead of typical front-in
• 60 degree stalls instead of 45 degree
More information about each alternative can be found in the attached exhibits.
VI. INTERDEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:
VII. PUBLIC
PARTICIPATION:
Stakeholders’ meetings were held on Oct. 12, 2022 and Oct. 26, 2022 and were led by staff and GHD. Input from these meetings were either no option preference, or a preference for additional sidewalk width along the north side of Broadway Avenue.
The public hearing was adequately noticed and advertised for the Special Planning Commission meeting held on November 30, 2022.
The public will have an opportunity to provide comments prior to City Council action.
VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL
REVIEW:
Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the project is categorically exempt under section 15302 Class 2(c). The proposed project consists of replacement

GHD has developed the following alternatives which convert Broadway Avenue from a two lane roadway to a single lane eastbound one way roadway. This retasking includes a change in parking along Broadway from Winton Way to Second Street and creates the opportunity for sidewalk widening.
Broadway Avenue from Winton Way to Fifth Street
1. 45 degree parking on both sides of the roadway.
a. Provides more space for vehicles entering and exiting parking stalls.
2. 60 degree parking on both sides of the roadway.
a. Maximizes number of angled stalls within the block
Broadway Avenue from Fifth Street to Second Street
1. 45 degree parking
a. 45 degree parking with eastbound travel on the right side of the roadway. i. Natural path for users to drive on the right hand side. ii. More difficult for drivers to look behind them and see oncoming traffic when backing out.
iii. 45 degree stall size allows for sidewalk widening or parallel parking to be provided on the opposite side of the roadway.
b. 45 degree parking with eastbound travel on the left side of the roadway. i. Easier for drivers to back out of stalls to see oncoming traffic. ii. 45 degree stall size allows for sidewalk widening or parallel parking to be provided on the opposite side of the roadway.
2. 60 degree parking
a. 60 degree Parking with eastbound travel on the right side of the roadway. i. Natural path for users to drive on the right hand side. ii. More difficult for drivers to look behind them and see oncoming traffic when backing out.
iii. 60 degree stalls maximize the number of angled parking stalls along the roadway, but eliminates opportunity for sidewalk widening or parallel parking on the opposite side.
b. 60 degree parking with eastbound travel on the left side of the roadway. i. Easier for drivers to back out of stalls to see oncoming traffic. ii. 60 degree stalls maximize the number of angled parking stalls along the roadway, but eliminates opportunity for sidewalk widening or parallel parking on the opposite side.
GHD also evaluated the use of back in stalls instead of the typical forward pull in stalls at 45 and 60 degree angles. Back in stalls provide the following benefits:
- Forces drivers to enter stalls slower via back in movement. - Provides an easier forward movement when exiting the stall. - Much improved visibility of oncoming traffic when exiting the stall.
