In December 2022, the City completed negotiations and reached an agreement with all of the employee bargaining groups outlining wages, benefits and working conditions for each respective group. Staff will post the approved labor/employment agreements and associated salary information on the City’s website to provide the public with access to this information at https://www.brisbaneca.org/hr/page/labor-agreements and https://www.brisbaneca.org/hr/page/salary-information
Discussion
Staff is presenting for adoption tonight the pay schedule increases for the upcoming FY 2022-23 effective the first full pay period in January 2023. The summary of the updates to the master pay schedule are as follows:
• Confidential Management Employees: The classifications in this group will receive a 3% pay increase and the current filled positions in this classification and their respective top step pay rates include: Assistant City Manager at $127.12 per hour and Finance Director at $105.78 per hour.
• Executive Management: The classifications in this group will receive a 3% pay increase and the current filled positionsin this classification and their respective top step pay rates include:
City Clerk at $68.54 per hour, Community Development Director at $106.91 per hour, Parks and Recreation Director at $101.93 per hour and Public Works Director/City Engineer at $125.15 per hour.
• Police Chief: This classification will receive a 3% pay increase and the new pay rate will be $124.73 per hour at the top step.
• The following bargaining groups will also receive a 3% pay increase: Brisbane Fire Management, Confidential Employees, General Employees Association, International Association of Firefighters, Local 2400, Mid-Management/Professional Employees, Police Commander.
Historically, the City Council has approved pay increases for hourly unrepresented employees that mirror the pay increases of represented bargaining groups. In order to continue this practice, staff is requesting Council to approve for this fiscal year a similar 3% increase to the pay scales for hourly employees, with the exception of the Intern, Habitat Restoration Lead Worker and Special Assistant positions to ensure the hourly employees are compensated appropriately and their compensation kept in line with their fellow employees in the bargaining units. Staff is also recommending that hourly pay step scales that are currently below the scheduled January 2023 minimum wage increase have their starting step (Step A) be set at $15.50 per hour and additional steps (Grades B to E) be adjusted in increments of 5% accordingly, so that minimum wage requirement is met.
Staff recommends City Council approves the attached resolutions, so that the City is in compliance with GC Section 20636 and CCR section 570.5, and able to work towards retaining and attracting the quality and expertise of staff required by Council and the community. 232

Circular Letter November 4, 2016
TO: ALL CALPERS EMPLOYERS
SUBJECT: STATUTORY AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPENSATION
EARNABLE AND PUBLICLY AVAILABLE PAY SCHEDULES
Accurate Payroll reporting is crucial for providing accurate member benefits. The purpose of this letter is to remind employers of the requirements for compensation earnable and publicly available pay schedules.
Compensation Earnable
Only those pay amounts that meet the definition of compensation earnable are used when calculating retirement benefits. For more information about compensation earnable, please refer to the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) Government Code (GC) sections 20636 and 20636.1 which define compensation earnable for State, School, and Public Agency members. Compensation earnable is further clarified by California Code of Regulations (CCR) Section 570.5.
All employers must comply with the compensation earnable provisions and corresponding regulations of the PERL. Where employers fail to comply, pay amounts will be determined to not constitute payrate, and accordingly, CalPERS will be unable to use such pay amounts when calculating members’ retirement benefits.
Requirement for Publicly Available Pay Schedules
To meet the definition of compensation earnable, an amount of pay must either constitute payrate or special compensation as defined in the statutes. GC section 20636(d) further requires that payrate and special compensation schedules, ordinances, or similar documents are public records.
Employers must review their pay schedules to verify that all members’ pay amounts are included within a publicly available pay schedule.

Compensation Earnable Government Codes
GC section 20636(b)(1) (applicable to Public Agency members) and 20636.1(b)(1) (applicable to School members) require pay amounts to be paid pursuant to publicly available pay schedules.
For example, GC section 20636 (b)(1) states:
“Payrate means the normal monthly rate of pay or base pay of the member paid in cash to similarly situated members of the same group or class of employment for services rendered on a full-time basis during normal working hours, pursuant to publicly available pay schedules. “Payrate,” for a member who is not in a group or class, means the monthly rate of pay or base pay of the member, paid in cash and pursuant to publicly available pay schedules, for services rendered on a full-time basis during normal working hours, subject to the limitations of paragraph (2) of subdivision (e).” CCR 570.5 specifies the required elements necessary to meet the definition of a publicly available pay schedule as follows:
(a) For purposes of determining the amount of “compensation earnable” pursuant to GC sections 20630, 20636, and 20636.1, payrate shall be limited to the amount listed on a pay schedule that meets all of the following requirements:
(1) Has been duly approved and adopted by the employer’s governing body in accordance with requirements of applicable public meetings laws; (2) Identifies the position title for every employee position; (3) Shows the payrate for each identified position, which may be stated as a single amount or as multiple amounts within a range;
(4) Indicates the time base, including, but not limited to, whether the time base is hourly, daily, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, or annually; (5) Is posted at the office of the employer or immediately accessible and available for public review from the employer during normal business hours or posted on the employer’s internet website;
(6) Indicates an effective date and date of any revisions; (7) Is retained by the employer and available for public inspection for not less than five years; and
(8) Does not reference another document in lieu of disclosing the payrate.
All eight (8) requirements must be met in one salary schedule for each member’s pay, in order for CalPERS to approve the pay amount as payrate and reportable compensation earnable. 235

Circular Letter: 200-050-16
November 4, 2016
Publicly Available Pay Schedules Government Code
If an agency cannot provide a document meeting the requirements for a publicly available pay schedule, then CalPERS must determine that the pay amount fails to meet the definition of payrate. CCR 570.5 (b)(1)-(4) outlines the process by which CalPERS may determine a member’s payrate when there is no publicly available pay schedule provided.
CCR 570.5 (b) states:
(b) Whenever an employer fails to meet the requirements of subdivision (a) above, the Board, in its sole discretion, may determine an amount that will be considered to be payrate, taking into consideration all information it deems relevant including, but not limited to, the following:
(1) Documents approved by the employer’s governing body in accordance with requirements of public meetings laws and maintained by the employer; (2) Last payrate listed on a pay schedule that conforms to the requirements of subdivision (a) with the same employer for the position at issue; (3) Last payrate for the member that is listed on a pay schedule that conforms with the requirements of subdivision (a) with the same employer for a different position;
(4) Last payrate for the member in a position that was held by the member and that is listed on a pay schedule that conforms with the requirements of subdivision (a) of a former CalPERS employer.

2 Project 1 is an overlay of Sierra Point Parkway from Lagoon Way to the US 101 overpass that was completed this summer. The materials used in the overlay included oils and crumb rubber derived from used tires. In order to qualify for the minimum quantity of recycled material to be placed, Brisbane and South San Francisco partnered to submit a joint application.
Project 2 is a 2.3-mile-long project that will widen existing Crocker Trail to approximately 12’ and will provide a firmer surface than the current condition. Councilmember Lentz’s advocacy at C/CAG was key to obtaining this grant. After a long wait to finally get into the federal fiscal funding year assigned for this grant, the project is scheduled to be released to bidders in Spring 2023.
Project 3 provides for the design and construction of a new stairway from east of 207 San Benito down to east of 401 Alvarado. The existing dirt “path” is rather treacherous; the new condition will fill a significant pedestrian connection in this part of Central Brisbane. This project is also scheduled to be released to bidders in Spring 2023.
Project 4 will upgrade ten (10) of the existing commute.org shuttle stops in Crocker Industrial Park so that they are accessible per ADA standards, and provided with shelters.
Commute.org and participating business in that organization’s employee shuttle program provided advocacy letters that led to award of this grant.
Project 5 will fund completion of design for three stairways: the existing dirt path that starts on San Francisco Avenue and ends on Old County Road, the unimproved city easement that starts on the south side of 78 Tulare and runs to the south side of 190 Santa Clara, and the continuation of the easement that starts on the south side of 190 Santa Clara and ends on the south side of 217 Alvarado. This grant will also fund the construction of the Tulare to Santa Clara portion of the city easement.
Earlier this year, the City engaged Renne Public Policy Group to assist with grant applications.
RPPG’s grant writers were key to our obtaining this last grant for $475,000. Also of interest, RPPG did bring to our attention a grant opportunity of $500,000 for our pending Advanced Metering Infrastructure project. If successful, that grant will obviously be helpful in our efforts to bring real time water consumption metrics to our citizens. 269

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 8, 2022
From: Clay Holstine, City Manager
Subject: Resolution to Implement the Transactions and Use Tax Ordinance Approved by the Voters and a Resolution Authorizing Examination of Sales or Transactions and Use Taxes Records
COMMUNITY GOAL/RESULT:
Fiscally Prudent
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a Preparatory Agreement, an Administrative Agreement, and any other documents required by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration in order to implement the voter approved Transaction and Use Tax Ordinance.
Adopt a resolution authorizing certain positions within the City and representatives of MuniServices, LLC to receive/examine records from the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration
BACKGROUND
In July 2022, City Council adopted a Transaction and Use Tax Ordinance to be administered by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA), subject to approval by Brisbane voters. If approved by the voters, the tax would impose an additional one half of one percent tax (commonly referred to as a sales tax) on the sale of goods in the City. Staff estimated such tax would generate $500,000 for general municipal purposes. The tax would be imposed effective April 1, 2023.
A majority of Brisbane voters who voted on this measure (Measure U) on November 8, 2022 approved the tax.
In order to implement the tax, CDFTA requires certain agreements and forms to be executed by the City. A resolution authorizing the City Manager to sign such agreements and documents is attached. In addition, CDFTA requires a resolution indicating which positions within the City and/or representatives of MuniServices, LLC, to have access to confidential sales or transaction and use tax records.
278
F.
Transactions and Use Tax Page 2 of 2
DISCUSSION
The resolution authorizes the City Manager to sign two agreements: one for the CDFTA’s preparatory work and the other for its ongoing work. The Agreement for Preparation to Administer and Operate the City’s Transaction and Use Tax Ordinance provides that the City will pay CDFTA for the work necessary to prepare to administer and operate the tax. Such costs include the costs for developing procedures, data processing programs, developing instructions to Department’s staff, etc. The amount to be paid shall not exceed $175,000 but according to the CDFTA, “the actual amount charged is typically less than $175,000 particularly in smaller cities and counties where fewer notification mailings are required”. The Agreement for State Administration of the City’s Transaction and Use Tax authorizes CDFTA to perform the ongoing functions necessary to collect the remit to the City the tax it collects. The annual cost for these services is estimated to be $4,250.
Under the law, sales or transactions and use tax records are confidential. CDFTA requires the City to list positions within the City, and well as representatives of MuniServices, LLC, which firm assists the City in its administration of these taxes, that will need access to this confidential information.
FISCAL IMPACT
As indicated above, the City must pay CDFTA for its services in connection with its administration of this tax: an amount not to exceed $175,000 to for its preparatory work and an estimated $4,250 annually for its ongoing work. The City expects to receive an additional $500,000 annually from this tax.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 8, 2022
From: Clay Holstine, City Manager & Michael Roush, Legal Counsel
Subject: Introduction of an Ordinance to Administer and Implement the Business License Tax Imposed on Hotels and Other Places Designed for Occupancy by Transients. This Ordinance is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act because it is not a “project”. Section 15378 (b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines.
Community Goal/Result:
Fiscally Prudent
Recommendation:
Introduce an Ordinance to add numerous sections to the Brisbane Municipal Code (Sections
5.20.036 through 5.20.044) to administer and implement the Business License Tax imposed on hotels and other places designed for occupancy by transients, which tax was approved by Brisbane voters at the November 8, 2022 general municipal election. Because of the numbering system in the Code, the current Section 5.20.040 (concerning the business license tax for street vendors) will need to be deleted and relocated to Section 5.20.235.
Background
In July 2022, City Council adopted Ordinance 674, adding Section 5.20.035 to the Brisbane Municipal Code, to impose a business license tax on hotels and other places designed for occupancy by “transients”—generally guests who pay to rent a room at a hotel or stay at a short term rental. The Ordinance provides that the hotel operator must pay a daily business license tax of $2.50 for every room that is rented. The tax was contingent, however, on Brisbane voters approving it at the November 8, 2022 general municipal election. Voters approved the tax and hotels and similar businesses must begin paying the tax as of January 1, 2023.
That Ordinance, however, did not set forth how the tax would be administered or implemented, to address matters such as reporting and remitting the tax, penalties and interest if the tax is not paid timely, appeals, recording keeping, and similar provisions. Accordingly, staff has drafted the attached Ordinance to provide how the tax will be administered and implemented. These provisions did not need to be approved by the voters; only the tax itself.
Discussion
Separate from this tax, the City also has a Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) Ordinance that requires hotel operators to collect this tax from paying guests and remit such tax to the City.
Currently, as approved by the voters, this tax is 14% of the rate charged by the hotel for the accommodations.
294
G.
BLT on Hotels Page 2 of 2
The City’s TOT Ordinance sets forth numerous provisions concerning the administration and implementation of that Ordinance and these provisions, to the extent applicable, have been incorporated into the attached Ordinance. Among other matters, they track the requirements of hotel operators under the TOT Ordinance to report and remit the tax, penalties and interest if the remittance is not timely, authorizing the tax administrator (Finance Director) to determine the tax if the operator fails or refuses to pay the tax, operator appeals, refunds, and violations of the Ordinance.
Because of the numbering system in the Municipal Code and the addition of these sections, the current section 5.20.040 which concerns the business license tax for “peddlers, hawkers and street vendors” needs to be deleted and relocated, without substantive change, to a new section 5.20.235.
Assuming City Council introduces this Ordinance at its meeting on December 8 or December 9 if the item is carried over to that date, the second reading of the Ordinance may appear on the Council’s consent calendar on December 15, 2022. It will go into effect 30 days later. Since these matters simply implement and administer the Ordinance that imposed the tax, they do not affect the requirement that hotels must begin paying the tax as of January 1, 2023. (The first remittance—covering January 1, 2023 through March 31, 2023—is not due until April 2023.)
CEQA Determination
Recently, a State appellate court has held that in order to comply with the Brown Act, certain agenda item titles must reflect what environmental review is associated with a proposed Council action and if the proposed action is exempt under CEQA, that exemption identified.
The agenda title for this item reflects that this Ordinance is exempt under CEQA because it is an administrative activity of a government that will have no direct or indirect effect on the environment. CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378 (b)(5).
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact associated with the introduction or adoption of this Ordinance.
Assuming that hotels are at 70% occupancy, staff estimates the City will receive $250,000 annually from this tax.

Re: Support for Caltrain’s application to the Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program Dear Secretary Omishakin:
As elected officials representing the communities that Caltrain serves, we are writing to express our strong support for Caltrain's application to the Cycle 6 Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program (TIRCP) Existing Projects Reserve to complete the Caltrain Electrification Project. It is critical that Caltrain receive these resources to ensure this once in a generation project is completed by fall 2024, address the immediate cash flow needs and create a more sustainable future for Caltrain and the communities it serves.
The Caltrain Electrification Project (Project) is at the forefront of commuter rail innovation, transitioning from a legacy diesel rail line to a cutting edge, electrified line that mitigates climate impacts while creating thousands of jobs. The project has been in construction since 2017 and will modernize a nearly 160-year-old diesel commuter rail line by increasing capacity and improving performance and safety while providing cleaner and more sustainable service. Spanning 51 miles between San Francisco and San Jose, this project will replace 75 percent of Caltrain’s 30-year-old diesel fleet with high-performance electric trains. Caltrain will become California’s first electrified commuter rail system and North America’s first commuter rail system in 30 years to transition its trains and infrastructure from diesel to 302
H.
an electrified system. The local, regional, and state level benefits of this endeavor, some of which we’ve listed below, are significant.
• Construction Nearly Complete: The Caltrain Electrification Project began construction in 2017 and continued throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Four of the new electric trains have already been delivered to the corridor and started testing. Caltrain is well on the way to providing electrified service in less than two years if additional resources are secured. • Fighting Climate Change: Caltrain Electrification and the future service vision expansion will deliver tremendous environmental benefits to the region by replacing a 30-year-old, polluting diesel fleet and expanding capacity to carry more riders and remove vehicles from the road. Electrification will directly improve air quality along the corridor and significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
• Equity: Caltrain Electrification will enhance access and benefit equity priority communities and as well as help Caltrain serve a more diverse group of riders, including people with lower incomes and members of racial and ethnic minority groups. The new electric train trains will significantly decrease emissions and noise pollution in the equity priority communities along the corridor. The Electrification Program will help Caltrain continue to expand midday and off-peak service levels to better serve essential workers, improve access for equity priority communities, and attract customers whose work schedules do not conform to historic peak commute hours. • Job Creation and Economic Growth: The project has created thousands of jobs in California and contributed to job creation in 36 states across the county. In addition to supporting manufacturing jobs, the Caltrain Electrification Project is a vital contributor to the continued economic growth and quality of life for Silicon Valley and the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
Caltrain service to the communities in which these companies are located will enable them to help drive the economy of our state, not to mention the nation. • Ridership and Community: The new high-performance trains will offer a better experience for riders and the community. They will generate less noise than their diesel equivalent, making the trip more enjoyable both for riders and residents that live near Caltrain tracks. The new vehicles also offer enhanced amenities, including new digital onboard displays, power outlets at each seat, energy-efficient lighting, coat hooks, security cameras, expanded storage and ADA restrooms with baby changing tables.
• Fiscal Benefit: The COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on Caltrain’s overall financial health has been significant. Pre-pandemic, Caltrain counted on ridership to cover approximately ~70 percent of the operating budget, as of October 2022 ridership is at 30%. Additional resources are critical because the Electrification Project will run out of funds in June 2023. Securing additional funding for the Electrification Project will not only keep this important capital project on track, but it will also help with the agency’s overall financial health by making sure Caltrain isn’t overly burdened with debt and that key funding sources such as Measure RR and the Low Carbon Fuel Standard that were intended for operating, safety repairs and expansion support aren’t diverted to the Electrification Project. By securing $410M for the Electrification project, Caltrain estimates the operating fiscal cliff would be move from fiscal year 2024 (July 2023) to fiscal year 2027 (July 2026). With additional resources, the Electrification Project can be completed and Caltrain will 303
H.
have more financial stability to continue providing quality, reliable service and expansion projects to communities along the corridor.
We are close to the finish line for this transformational project. We urge for your leadership to fully fund this project to ensure Caltrain stays on track to deliver a project that will leave a legacy for the region, state and nation. Thank you in advance for your consideration of our important request.
