Public Outreach
Along with the media and marketing campaign,
SDCP staff also engaged community members at
over 50 public engagement outreach events from

Outreach included presentations to various civic
and non-profit entities including planning groups,
city councils, chambers of business, rotary
groups, and activations at events like San Diego
Pride (300,000 attendees), San Diego Padres
SDCP Sponsored Night (30,000 co-branded hats
given away), and the SD Regional Bike Summit
(200+ attendees).
17 Item 7
Update on the Phase 3 Residential Media and Outreach
Campaign - Key Takeaways and Future Implications
• Prioritize use of Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram due to strong performance in Phase 3 media campaign (low Cost per Click, efficient Cost per Thousand Impressions, and high Click Through Rate) • NextDoor offers a low performance for a high cost – more effective as a tool for organic engagement • Display (i.e., billboards/window displays) remains a strong reach and traffic driver following paid social
• Provides a highly visible channel and is effective for perception and awareness campaigns • Organic Search is still showing a high volume of traffic, meaning Paid Search is ineffective • Local Print and Radio should continue be utilized to bolster brand awareness and community trust 18 Item 7

24 Item 8
Update on Regulatory and Legislative Affairs
CEC Load Management Standards
CalCCA Engagement and Latest Amendments
• SDCP has actively engaged with CalCCA to submit comments throughout the rulemaking; • Generally support dynamic rates to promote load management but object to CEC mandated rates, which encroaches on CCAs’ local ratemaking authority, as well as implementation concerns (e.g., access to timely IOU interval data). • On July 6, 2022, the CEC published its second set of revisions expanding the ability to ask for an exemption, modification or delay, and extending some deadlines for compliance. • CalCCA filed comments on July 21 reiterating jurisdictional concerns and feasibility issues. • The CEC was set to vote on proposed LMS amendments on August 10, 2022, but has postponed this vote indefinitely.

36 Mercer Study – Background & Context
In April the Board approved Staff to conduct a Market Salary Survey • San Diego Community Power (“SDCP”) engaged Mercer to conduct a market compensation study after soliciting 3 bids
• The project scope included two primary phases:
– Obtaining a market perspective on competitive cash compensation levels for each of SDCP’s roles, including several vacant positions
– Establishing salary ranges to help manage base pay in the future • Mercer obtained data representing three market perspectives: general industry (all industries combined), the energy/utilities space, and California CCAs (the latter for executives only) – The first two perspectives were pulled from Mercer’s proprietary survey library, while CCA data were obtained from Transparent CA
• From this data SDCP then created
– Market compensation grade levels for all current positions – Salary bands using the Wide Grade approach for all known current and future positions – Comprehensive (vs Ad Hoc) approach to employee compensation and retention 37 Mercer Study – Benchmarking Methodology
Mercer employed a specific methodology to benchmark SDCP salaries 38 Mercer – Types of Salary Structures
Mercer built a “wide grade” structure for SDCP after discussions w/ staff 39 Mercer Study – Proposed Design
