MEETING
DATE:

February 9, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Justin Vinson, Public Works Director

PREPARED
BY:

Kristina Gardner, Recreation Supervisor
SUBJECT: Approving Amendment No. 1 to the Use Agreement with Atwater Police Activities League (PAL) (Public Works Director Vinson)

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Adoption of Resolution No. 3592-26 approving Amendment No. 1 to the Use Agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney, with Atwater Police Activities League for the use of Osborn Park and Veterans Memorial Park softball, soccer field and concession for organized activities, and authorizes and directs the City Manager, or his designee, to execute the Amendment No. 1 on behalf of the City.

I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The Atwater Police Activities League is an active organization in the City of Atwater that would like to Amend their Use Agreement with the City of Atwater (“City”). The Atwater Police Activities League (“League”) provides a variety of free or low-cost organized activities outdoors for the community, by uniting law enforcement and communities.

When the City of Atwater and the Atwater Police Activities League entered into their Use Agreement November 10, 2025, the Atwater Police Activities League was not sure yet if they would be able to restart up their Junior Giants League, so the City did not include the use of the baseball/softball fields at Osborn Park, or the softball field at Veterans Park. Once the Atwater Police Activities League confirmed that they would be able to have the Junior Giants League, staff met with the other leagues that use the fields (Atwater Little League and the Atwater Bombers) to ensure that all three leagues would be able to use the fields without disrupting each others' leagues.

This Amendment would waive the fees for the use of the fields and concession stand, similar to how the agreements are with the other two leagues that enjoy the use of the fields.

II. FISCAL IMPACTS:

Rental fees for the fields is as follows, adopted June 9, 2025, in the City's

Miscellaneous Fee Schedule. The table is listed below. With approval of this Amendment, the fees for the rental cost of the fields will be waived.

This item has been reviewed by the Finance Department.

III. LEGAL REVIEW:

This item has been reviewed by the City Attorney.

IV. EXISTING POLICY:

This item is consistent with goal number six (6) subsection four (4) of the City’s 2026- 2030 Strategic Plan: Evaluate the cost of services for recreational programs and explore opportunities for cost savings, program “sharing” and partnerships with non-profit organizations.

V. ALTERNATIVES:

N/A
VI. INTERDEPARTMENTAL COORDINATION:

This item has been reviewed by relevant departments.

VII. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION:

The public will have an opportunity to provide comments on this item prior to City Council action.

VIII. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:

This item is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as this activity does not cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21065.

IX. STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Upon approval by City Council, the City Clerk’s office will route Amendment No. 1 for signature.

BACKGROUND:

The State of CA. Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) awarded the City of Atwater $388,250 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program Income in December of 2022 in response to the City’s 2022 CDBG Program Income application.

CDBG Program regulations require that the City conduct a public hearing for all CDBGrelated matters.

ANALYSIS:

The Owner-Occupied Rehab program provided emergency, minor and substantial housing rehabilitation to remedy property maintenance, age, health and safety, and/or housing code issues of existing single-family residential units for low-income owneroccupied households. Rehab work addressed deficiencies in key building features such as roofing, windows, and flooring, and property systems such as basic plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. The owner-occupied rehab services were available to incomeeligible (<80% area-median-income) homeowners of single-family residences located in the City of Atwater. Assistance was provided in the form of deferred, zero-interest

AGENDA REPORT

MEETING
DATE:

February 9, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Anna Nicholas, Finance Director

PREPARED
BY:

Anna Nicholas, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Approving a Resolution which Adopts the Mid-Year Budget Revenue and Expense Amendments for Fiscal Year 2025-26
(Finance Director Nicholas)

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Motion to adopt Resolution No. 3595-26, which includes Budget Amendment No. 9 amending the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Budget based upon mid-year review; or Motion to adopt staff's recommendation as presented.

I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City Council adopted the Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 budget on June 9, 2025 via Resolution No. 3538-25. Since the implementation of the adopted budget, the Finance Department, in collaboration with all departments, has performed a mid-year review of the operating budget, which includes an analysis of the estimated revenues and expenses for the current fiscal year. As a result of the analysis, staff recommends budgetary amendments that are detailed in Exhibit “A” of this agenda item.

Items of Note:

Revenues: Investment earnings continue to stay strong at the time of this reporting.

The majority of the City's investments are held in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The last two quarters of the LAIF apportionment rates were used to revise estimated investment earnings in four major funds: General Fund (0001), Public Safety Transaction & Use Tax Fund (0004), Water Enterprise Fund (6000) and the Wastewater Enterprise Fund (6010). The LAIF apportionment rates are presented in Exhibit "D".

Expenses: At the time of the fiscal year budget compilation, health care premiums are estimated. The CalPERS Health Care premiums for the upcoming fiscal year are released in the fall after the fiscal year budget is adopted. The City contributes 90% of the health care premium for some retirees. Overall, the weighted premium increase was

Agenda Report - Approving a Resolution which Adopts the Mid-Year Budget Revenue and Expense Amendments for Fiscal Year 2025-26 (Finance Director Nicholas) Page 2

8.21%, with each plan varying. The City contributes 90% based on a variable (premium rate) versus a fixed rate "flat amount" for the retiree health care benefit, which results in necessary budget amendments due to unknown cost increases that occur later in the fiscal year.

There is an increase in appropriation for Professional Services due to unanticipated legal costs.

The amendments include an interfund transfer request to correct coding errors for nonDevelopment Impact Fee fund transactions. Through analytical review, certain transactions recorded in the Parks and Recreation Fund (1020) were not qualified to be spent from this fund. The amendment includes a journal entry to correct these coding errors.

General Fund Summary: Due to the revision of investment earnings based on most recent data; other minor revenue adjustments; and significant effort on behalf of all departments to operate within prescribed budgets, the City was able to narrowly close the General Fund structural deficit originally estimated for FY 2025-26. Listed below is supplemental detail.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION
Motion to adopt Resolution No. 3593-26 to ratify the Community Development Director Employment Agreement in the annual amount of $149,562.92 plus benefits with Jonnie Hanson Lan, in a form approved by the City Attorney; and authorize and direct the City Manager to execute the Agreement on behalf of the City; or Motion to adopt staff's recommendation as presented.

I. BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:

The Community Development Director position is a key management position in the operation of City business. Failure to maintain appropriate staffing levels in critical leadership positions limits the City’s ability to ensure public safety, plan for the future, and maintain effective organizational operations. The appointment of a new Community Development Director will reaffirm to the community and staff the City's commitment to maintaining effective leadership in the Community Development Department.

In October 2026, the City conducted recruitment efforts for the new Community Development Director. The City Manager interviewed candidates and determined that Jonnie Hanson Lan, AICP is the preferred candidate. Ms. Hanson Lan was issued a Conditional Offer of Employment with an anticipated start date of February 24, 2026.

She brings extensive experience in community development and planning in California, with a background spanning municipal government and private consulting. She most recently served as Principal Planner for the City of Merced, including serving as Acting Planning Manager, where she oversaw Planning Division operations, supervised staff, and managed complex development projects and policy initiatives through the review and approval process. As Community Development Director, Hanson Lan will oversee functions including planning, building, engineering, and implementation of key policy and long-range planning initiatives.

If Employee retires from full-time public service with the City, Employee shall provide ninety days (90) advance written notice.

Promptly after the effective date of resignation or retirement, the City shall pay to Employee all salary and other compensation due and owing under this Agreement. In the event of voluntary resignation or retirement, Employee shall not be entitled to Severance, as set forth in Section 5.3 of this Agreement.

Section 5.2. Termination by City Manager. The City Manager may terminate this Agreement and remove Employee from their position as Community Development Director at any time with or without cause. If Employee’s termination is based on charges of misconduct that publicly stigmatizes Employee’s reputation or impairs their ability to earn a living, or might damage their standing in a community, Employee may, within five (5) business days of the City Manager’s notice to Employee of his or her intent to terminate Employee’s employment, make a written request for a "name-clearing" hearing (as described in Lubey v. City and County of San Francisco (1979) 98 Cal.App.3d 340 and its progeny) before the City Council in closed session. The "name-clearing" hearing is solely to provide Employee the opportunity to clear their name. The City Council may determine whether the allegations contained in the notice of termination are supported. If the City Council determines that the allegations are not supported, a decision shall be issued to reflect that Employee's termination was without fault. This decision will not, however, require that Employee be reinstated to their position. In the event Employee does not request a "name-clearing" hearing before the City Council, the City Manager’s decision to terminate will be effective by the close of business on the fifth (5th) day after the City Manager provided notice to Employee of his or her intent to terminate Employee’s employment. Should the Employee request a name clearing hearing within the five (5) days, termination will still take effect after the fifth day and Employee will not be on paid status during this period.

Section 5.3. Termination With Severance. This provision only relates to Employee’s eligibility to receive severance pay pursuant to this Agreement and

City of Atwater
Community Development Director
Employment Agreement

does not in any way impact Employee’s at-will status. In the event the City Manager terminates Employee’s employment and this Agreement without Good Cause, as defined in Section 5.4, below, or requests Employee’s resignation in lieu of such termination, subject to the conditions in this subsection, Employee shall be eligible to receive a sum equal to four (4) month’s Base Salary (“Severance”).

Such Severance is subject to the restrictions of Government Code section 53260.

Severance shall be paid in the same manner as to other similarly situated City employees unless otherwise agreed to by the City Manager and Employee.

Employee’s eligibility for Severance shall be expressly conditioned upon Employee’s execution (and non-revocation) of: (i) a waiver and release of any and all of Employee’s claims against the City, and its employees, elected officials, officers, and agents, and (ii) a covenant not to sue any of those parties. If the Employee resigns in lieu of termination, the Parties shall cooperate and agree regarding public announcements and communications regarding Employee’s separation. Such waiver shall be either drafted or approved by the City Attorney prior to execution.

Section 5.4. Termination Without Severance. This provision only relates to Employee’s ability to receive severance pay pursuant to this Agreement, and does not in any way impact Employee’s at-will status. The City Manager may at any time immediately terminate this Agreement and Employee’s employment for Good Cause, as defined below. If Employee is terminated for Good Cause, the City shall not be required to pay any Severance under this Agreement, and the City shall have no obligation to Employee beyond those benefits accrued as of Employee’s last day of employment and those the City is obligated to provide under federal or state law.
“Good Cause” for purposes of this Agreement is defined as the following:

7. Failure to perform Employee’s duties to the standard set by the City, as determined by the City Manager,

10. Conduct that in any way has a direct, substantial, and adverse effect on the City’s reputation or the Administration Department whether during or outside business hours;

11. Violation of federal, state, or City discrimination laws;

13. Employee’s disability resulting in their inability to perform the essential functions of their job, which the City is unable to reasonably accommodate without placing an undue burden on City business operations;
