with the Initial Development Approvals, and shall therefore not be applicable to Development of the Property with the Project.
(f) Regulations which are in conflict with the Initial Development Approvals provided OWNER has given written consent to the application of such regulations to Development of Property.
(g) Modifications in Federal or State laws and regulations which CITY is required to enforce as against the Project or the Development of the Property.

Changes in, or additions to, the Land Use Regulations shall apply to the Project if such changes or additions are specifically mandated to be applied to developments such as the Project by applicable California or federal laws or regulations that go into effect on or after the Effective Date, which prevent or preclude compliance with one or more of the provisions of this Agreement. If CITY or OWNER believes that such a change or addition required by California or federal law or regulation exists, then that party shall provide the other party hereto with a copy of such California or federal law or regulation and a statement of the nature of its conflict with the provisions of the Land Use Regulations and/or of this Agreement. In the event that any such change or addition shall be required by California or federal law or regulation, then the provision(s) of this Agreement that require said change(s) shall be modified or suspended as may be necessary to comply with such state or federal laws or regulations and CITY shall reasonably cooperate with OWNER in minimizing the impact of such change upon the Project and the Property. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect to the extent it is not inconsistent with such laws or regulations and to the extent such laws or regulations do not render such remaining provisions impractical to enforce.

3.6.2 Future Discretion of CITY. This Agreement shall not prevent CITY, in acting on Subsequent Development Approvals, from applying Subsequent Land Use Regulations which do not conflict with the Initial Development Approvals, including, without limitation, the Development Plan or this Agreement as set forth in Section

3.6.1, nor shall this Agreement prevent CITY from denying or conditionally approving any Subsequent Development Approval subject to Section 3.6.1.

3.6.3 Intent. CITY acknowledges that OWNER has reasonably entered into this Agreement and intends to proceed with the Project on the assumption that CITY has adequately provided for the public health, safety and welfare through the Land Use Regulations and the Initial Development Approvals. In the event that any future, unforeseen public health or safety emergency arises, CITY agrees that it shall attempt to address such emergency in such a way as not to adversely impact Development of the Property in accordance with the Initial Development Approvals, and if that is not possible, to select that option for addressing the emergency which has the least adverse impact on Development of the Property in accordance with the Initial Development Approvals. CITY specifically also agrees that it will not adopt any development moratorium applicable to the Property or the Project except as a last resort response to such an emergency, and then shall maintain any such moratorium with respect to the

Page 16 of 35 ends

15 12923/0008/2689735-2
Property and the Project only for so long as required for CITY to address the emergency in such a way as to permit the Project to be completed according to OWNER's timetable.

3.6.4 Taxes, Assessments and Fees. This Agreement shall not prevent CITY from enacting, levying or imposing any new or increased tax, assessment or Processing Fees that are levied or imposed on a CITY-wide basis and adopted in accordance with applicable laws and regulations; provided, however, that CITY acknowledges and agrees that it shall not impose any new or increased Development Impact Fees the Development of the Project that are adopted by CITY after the Effective Date. The parties further anticipate that CITY will impose a condition on the Project relating to its annexation into CITY’s existing Landscape and Lighting District. If and to the extent this condition is so imposed, the parties shall work diligently and in good faith to promptly process and bring to the City Council for consideration said annexation request upon OWNER’s application for same, such that said annexation is complete prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy for the production of units for the Project.

3.7 Regulation by Other Public Agencies. It is acknowledged by the parties that other public agencies not subject to control by CITY may possess authority to regulate aspects of the Development of the Property, and this Agreement does not limit the authority of such other public agencies. At such time as OWNER seeks such Subsequent Development Approvals from nonCITY agencies, CITY agrees to reasonably cooperate and coordinate with OWNER in such efforts for the purpose of implementing the Project, upon OWNER’s request and subject to OWNER paying any and all costs incurred by CITY in connection therewith.

3.8 Reserved.

3.9 OWNER's Right to Construct Facilities. It is understood and agreed that, subject to CITY review and approval of plans and specifications, OWNER may elect, and reserves the right, to construct, or cause the construction of, any public or quasi-public facility for which CITY intends to collect a fee, and to dedicate the completed facility to CITY, in lieu of payment of the fee (as well as reimbursement from fees paid to CITY by other benefitted third party property owners (if any), if said fee credit would not be sufficient to reimburse OWNER for costs beyond its proportionate fair share of said facility); provided, however, that any such reimbursement would only come from Development Impact Fees received by CITY from other third party property owners benefitted by OWNER’s construction of said facilities in connection with other development projects and CITY shall have no obligation to directly reimburse OWNER for construction of public facilities from CITY’s general funds.

3.10 Provision of Real Property Interests by CITY. In any instance where OWNER is required to construct any public improvement on land not owned by OWNER, CITY shall first have acquired the necessary real property interests to allow OWNER to construct such public improvements; otherwise, OWNER shall have no obligation to so construct pursuant to Government Code Section 66462.5. Costs associated with such acquisition or condemnation proceedings, if any, shall be OWNER's responsibility, and may be included in an assessment district (if any) on a fair share basis.

16 12923/0008/2689735-2

3.11 Issuance of Ministerial Permits. Upon written request of OWNER, CITY shall endeavor to expedite the processing of all applications for Ministerial Permits, including but not limited to building, grading, and other permits necessary to complete construction and occupancy of horizontal and/or vertical improvements on the Property, as set forth in the Initial Development Approvals (including, without limitation, the Development Plan), provided OWNER’s applications for such permits comply with all Land Use Regulations applying to the subject matter of the applicable permit and with the other Initial Development Approvals (including any and all Conditions of Approval attached thereto) or any Subsequent Development Approval(s) if and to the extent approved by CITY.

4. PERIODIC REVIEW.

CITY shall review OWNER’s performance every twelve (12) months at the anniversary of the adoption of the Agreement, and this periodic review shall be conducted in accordance with the Development Agreement Law (“Periodic Review”). In connection with this Periodic Review, OWNER shall demonstrate good faith compliance with the terms of this Agreement. If, as a result of the review, CITY finds and determines, based upon substantial evidence, that OWNER has not complied in good faith with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, CITY may serve on OWNER a notice to cure setting forth in detail the nature of OWNER’s non-compliance with this Agreement. If OWNER fails to cure the non-compliance within sixty (60) days of the date of the notice or, if such cure cannot be effected within such sixty (60) day period and OWNER fails to commence and proceed in good faith in an effort to cure such non-compliance within such sixty (60) day period, CITY may, by written notice to OWNER, terminate this Agreement. The review shall be conducted by the Director of Community Development. Upon completion of a Periodic Review and a finding of OWNER’s good faith compliance and further upon OWNER’s request, City shall provide an Estoppel Certificate stating: (a) this Agreement is in full force and effect and constitutes a binding obligation of the parties; (b) this Agreement has not been amended either orally or in writing, or if it has been amended, specifying the document number of any recorded amendments; and (c) there are no existing Defaults in the performance of OWNER’s obligations under this Agreement to the actual knowledge of the party signing the Estoppel Certificate.

5. PUBLIC BENEFIT.

In consideration for the rights and benefits to OWNER under this Agreement, OWNER, through its compliance with this Agreement and otherwise through implementation of the Project, provides to CITY the following public benefits:
(a) Payment of Infrastructure Funds to City: OWNER shall pay and remit to the City of Covina, prior to issuance of building permits for the Project, but not as a condition to the issuance of other permits or approvals, the sum of $315,000.00 for the purposes of use by the City for the design and/or construction of City infrastructure within the municipal boundaries of the City of Covina. For the purposes of this Agreement, “City infrastructure” shall mean any City-owned public facility such as streets, landscaping, parking lots, utilities, parks, City-owned

Page 18 of 35 ends

17 12923/0008/2689735-2
buildings or facilities, or the acquisition of future City-owned and maintained facility.
(b) Demolition of aging and obsolete light industrial uses in connection with Development of the Project.
(c) Elimination of blight and increased property tax revenue as a result of the implementation of the Project.
(d) Increased economic activity throughout the CITY as a result of the implementation of the Project.

6. DEFAULT, REMEDIES AND TERMINATION.

6.1 Rights of CITY after Default; No Monetary Damages Remedy Against OWNER.

In the event of a Default by OWNER, CITY may terminate this Agreement and shall otherwise have hereunder all legal and equitable remedies as provided by law, except for the recovery of monetary damages which shall not be permitted. Before CITY may terminate this Agreement or take action to obtain judicial relief, CITY shall comply with the notice and cure provisions of Section 6.3.

6.2 OWNER Remedy Limited to Specific Performance; No Monetary Damages Remedy Against CITY. The nature of a development agreement under the Development Agreement Law is a very unusual contract involving promoting a very large development project facing many complex issues including geologic, environmental, financial, market, regulatory and other constantly evolving factors over an extremely long-time frame. The high level of uncertainty and risk involved justify the extraordinary commitments made to OWNER by CITY. The parties acknowledge that CITY would not have entered into this Agreement had it been exposed to monetary damages claims from OWNER for any termination, or Default hereunder. As such, the parties agree that in no event shall OWNER be entitled to recover monetary damages of any amount or of any kind against CITY for CITY’s termination or Default under this Agreement. For purposes of enforcement, therefore, OWNER’s sole remedy for any Default of this Agreement shall be the remedy of specific performance. Before OWNER takes action to obtain a judicial order for specific performance against CITY, OWNER shall comply with the notice and cure provisions of Section 6.3.

6.3 Notice and Opportunity to Cure. A non-Defaulting Party in its discretion may elect to declare a Default under this Agreement in accordance with the procedures hereinafter set forth for any alleged Default of the other party (“Defaulting Party”). However, the non-Defaulting Party must provide written notice to the Defaulting Party setting forth the nature of the breach or failure and the actions, if any, required by the Defaulting Party to cure such breach or failure. The Defaulting Party shall be deemed in Default under this Agreement, if the breach or failure can be cured, but the Defaulting Party has failed to take such actions and cure such Default within sixty (60) days after the date of such notice. However, if such Default cannot be cured within such sixty (60) day period, and if the Defaulting Party does each of the following:

Page 19 of 35 ends

18 12923/0008/2689735-2

1. Notifies the non-Defaulting Party in writing with a reasonable explanation as to the reasons the asserted Default is not curable within the sixty (60) day period;

2. Notifies the non-Defaulting Party of the Defaulting Party’s proposed cause of action to cure the Default;

3. Promptly commences to cure the Default within the sixty (60) day period;

4. Makes periodic reports to the non-Defaulting Party as to the progress of the program of cure; and

5. Diligently prosecutes such cure to timely completion, then:

The Defaulting Party shall not be deemed in Default of this Agreement once the Default has been timely cured.

6.4 Termination Notice. Upon receiving a Default Notice, should the Defaulting Party fail to timely cure any Default, or fail to diligently pursue such cure as prescribed above, the nonDefaulting Party may, in its discretion, provide the Defaulting Party with a written notice of intent to terminate this Agreement (“Termination Notice”). The Termination Notice shall state that the non-Defaulting Party will elect to terminate the Agreement within sixty (60) days and state the reasons therefor (including a copy of any specific charges of Default) and a description of the evidence upon which the decision to terminate is based. Once the Termination Notice has been issued, the non-Defaulting Party’s election to terminate this Agreement shall only be rescinded (i) if the Defaulting Party fully and completely cures all Defaults prior to the date of termination, or (ii) if the non-Defaulting Party elects to revoke the Termination Notice.

6.5 Waiver of Breach. By not filing a legal challenge to CITY’S action to approve or issue any Development Approval within the period established by applicable law, OWNER shall be deemed to have waived any claim that any condition of approval attached to said Development Approval is improper or that the action, as approved, constitutes a breach of the provisions of this Agreement. By recordation of a final subdivision map on any portion of the Property, OWNER shall be deemed to have waived any claim that any Condition of Approval of such final subdivision map is improper or that the Condition of Approval constitutes a breach of the provisions of this Agreement.

6.6 Attorneys Fees. In the event either party to this Agreement is forced to bring legal action to enforce its rights under this Agreement, and notwithstanding the limitation of the parties’ remedies under Section 6.2, the prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorney’s fees and costs of suit.

7. RELEASES AND INDEMNITIES.

7.1 Third-Party Litigation.

7.1.1 Non-liability of Parties. As set forth above, CITY has determined that this Agreement is consistent with the General Plan and meets all of the legal

Page 20 of 35 ends

19 12923/0008/2689735-2
requirements of State law. The parties acknowledge that:

A. In the future there may be challenges to the legality, validity and adequacy of the Initial Development Approvals, the Mitigated Negative Declaration, and/or this Agreement; and
B. If successful, such challenges could delay or prevent the performance of this Agreement and the Development of the Property.

C. In addition to the other provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 7, neither party shall have liability under this Agreement for any failure of either party to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement under this Agreement as the direct result of a judicial determination resulting from any claim or litigation that on the Effective Date, or at any time thereafter, the Land Use Regulations, the Development Approvals, the Mitigated Negative Declaration or any related CEQA determination for the Project (“CEQA Determination”), this Agreement, or portions thereof, are invalid or inadequate or not in compliance with law.

7.1.2 Revision of Land Use Regulations. If, for any reason, the Land Use Regulations, the Initial Development Approvals (including, without limitation, this Agreement), the Mitigated Negative Declaration, or the CEQA Determination or any part thereof is hereafter judicially determined, as provided above, to not be in compliance with applicable laws or regulations and, if such noncompliance can be cured by an appropriate action otherwise conforming to the provisions of this Agreement, then this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect to the extent permitted by law. If required by a judicial decision, CITY shall process any of OWNER’s applications for amendments to any of the Initial Development Approvals, the Mitigated Negative Declaration, the CEQA Determination, and this Agreement, as necessary in response to such judicial decision. The Parties understand and agree that no promise can be made as to any future approval, however, because land use regulations involve the exercise of CITY’S police power and it is settled California law that government may not contract away its right to exercise its police power in the future. Avco Community Developers Inc. v. South Coast Regional Com., 17 Cal.3d 785, 800 (1976); City of Glendale v. Superior Court, 18 Cal.App.4th 1768 (1993).

7.1.3 Participation in Litigation: Indemnity. To the full extent permitted by law, OWNER agrees to and shall fully indemnify, hold harmless, and defend, CITY and its respective elected and appointed officials, officers, members, agents, employees, and representatives (each an “Agent” and collectively “Agents”) from any and all claims, suits, causes of action, fines, penalties, proceedings, damages, injuries or losses of any name, kind or description, specifically including attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Claim(s)”), arising in any way out of or challenging the validity of this Agreement, any of the other Development Approvals, the Mitigated Negative Declaration or the CEQA Determination. OWNER’s indemnification obligation shall include, but not be limited to, actions to attack, set aside, void, or annul any approval, should it occur, related to this Agreement, any of the other Initial Development Approvals, the

Page 21 of 35 ends

20 12923/0008/2689735-2
Mitigated Negative Declaration or the CEQA Determination, including actions invoking Planning and Zoning Law or CEQA. OWNER shall reimburse CITY for any court costs and attorneys’ fees that CITY may be required by a court to pay as a result of such Claim(s). CITY may, at its sole and absolute discretion, participate in the defense of any such Claim(s) undertaken by OWNER, or (b) retain separate counsel whose attorneys’ fees and costs shall be paid by OWNER. Such participation in the defense of such Claim(s) or the retention of separate counsel by CITY shall not relieve OWNER of its obligations under this Agreement.

7.1.4 CITY shall promptly provide written notice to OWNER of any Claim(s).

CITY shall take all necessary and reasonable steps to provide such notice to OWNER in a timely fashion and in a manner that will not result in any substantial prejudice to OWNER’s ability to defend the relevant Claim(s). Such notice shall contain a copy of any relevant pleadings filed in connection with the relevant Claim(s). CITY acknowledges that OWNER desires to provide the defense of any Claim(s) in a cost efficient manner. CITY and OWNER shall coordinate and cooperate in their defense activities, whether CITY is participating in defense undertaken by OWNER or is retaining separate counsel. As used in this Agreement, cooperation does not include CITY having to take any action or make any decision that CITY does not believe, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, is in its own best interest. Unless expressly provided to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed in a manner that requires CITY to exercise its discretion in a particular manner.

7.1.5 OWNER may not resolve such Claim(s) without CITY’s prior written consent. In all events, CITY shall have the right to resolve any such Claim(s) in any manner, in its discretion, provided, however, OWNER’s consent shall be required (and may be granted or withheld in OWNER’s discretion) if the resolution of the Claim(s) shall require a payment by OWNER or limit OWNER’s rights under the Development Approvals, including, without limitation, this Agreement. OWNER’S obligation to pay the cost of any such Claim(s), including judgment, post-judgment motions, and any and all appeals, shall extend until any Claim is completely concluded, judgment is entered and completely satisfied.

7.1.6 In the event OWNER fails or refuses to reimburse CITY for its cost to defend any Claim(s), CITY shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, subject to the notice and cure requirements of Section 6.3 above. Additionally, in the event of any such Claim(s), the Term of this Agreement shall be tolled for the period during which such Claim(s) are proceeding until fully and finally resolved.

7.1.7 In order to ensure compliance with this Section 7, within twenty (20) days after notification by CITY of the receipt of any Claim(s), OWNER shall deposit with CITY cash or other security in the amount of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), satisfactory in form to the City Attorney, guaranteeing indemnification or reimbursement to CITY of all costs and fees related to any action triggering the obligations of this Section 7. If CITY is required to draw on that cash or security to indemnify or reimburse itself for such costs or fees, OWNER shall restore the deposit

Page 22 of 35 ends

21 12923/0008/2689735-2
to its original amount within fifteen (15) days after notice from CITY that replenishment is required. Additionally, if at any time the City Attorney determines that an additional deposit or additional security in an amount not to exceed an additional fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) is necessary to secure the obligations of this Section 7, OWNER shall provide such additional payment or security within fifteen (15) days of notice from the City Attorney.

7.2 Hold Harmless: OWNER’s Construction and Other Activities. OWNER shall indemnify, defend, save and hold CITY and its Agents, as defined in this Section 7 above, and shall hold and save them and each of them harmless from any and all claims, damages of any kind and litigation which may arise from OWNER’s or OWNER’s agents, contractors, subcontractors, agents, or employees’ operations under this Agreement, whether such operations be by OWNER or by any of OWNER’s agents, contractors or subcontractors or by any one or more persons directly or indirectly employed by or acting as agent for OWNER or any of OWNER’s agents, contractors or subcontractors. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.2, nothing herein shall make OWNER liable for the negligence or willful misconduct of CITY’s Agent(s).

7.3 Survival of Indemnity Obligations. All indemnity provisions set forth in this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason other than CITY’s Default as provided herein and shall continue to be the liability and obligation of OWNER, binding upon OWNER, until the final resolution of all Claims, and shall survive the completion, partial completion, or abandonment of the Project.

8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

8.10 Force Majeure. Neither party shall be deemed to be in Default where failure or delay in performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement is caused by earthquakes, other Acts of God, fires, wars, riots or similar hostilities, strikes and other labor difficulties beyond the party's control (including the party's employment force), government regulations, court actions (such as restraining orders or injunctions), or other causes beyond the party's control. If any such events shall occur, the term of this Agreement and the time for performance shall be extended for the duration of each such event, provided that the term of this Agreement shall not be extended under any circumstances for more than five (5) years.

AGENDA ITEM REPORT
ITEM NO. CC 12
Meeting: CC Regular Meeting - Dec 20 2022
Title: Request to Amend the City's Classification Plan and Salary Schedules to Establish a Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer and Deputy Director of Public Works - Operations and Transportation
Presented By: Suzanne Stone, Human Resources Manager
Andy Bullington, Director of Public Works
Anita Agramonte, Director of Administrative Services
Recommendation: That the City Council adopt Resolution CC 2022-141 to establish and amend the City's Classification plan, and establish job descriptions and salary ranges for Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer and Deputy Director of Public Works - Operations and Transportation within the Mid-Management, Supervisory and Professional, and Confidential and Technical Employees (Unaffiliated) Compensation Rules.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

With the recent departure of the Environmental Services and Transportation Manager, there was an opportunity to consolidate and reorganize these duties within the existing organizational staffing structure in the Public Works Department to ensure that the Department is responsive to operational needs and organizational goals. Based on this review, it has been determined that staffing adjustments are needed to better serve the public, maximize the City’s resources and ensure the City remains competitive within the local labor market. The proposed changes will establish a succession planning tool for the Department and recognize the increased workload and level of responsibilities that have been assumed by existing team members in the Department. This will also result in the reduction of a fulltime position since the Department will leave the Environmental Services and Transportation Manager position vacant and unbudgeted.

Funding for the positions will be provided through salary savings as the desire is to reclassify two current employees who are currently performing the functions of the Deputy Director positions. The job specifications and salary schedules are attached with ResolutionCC 2022-141 as Attachment A hereto.

BACKGROUND:

On July 6, 2021, City Council approved the Mid-Management, Supervisory and Professional, and Confidential and Technical Employees (Unaffiliated) Compensation Rules, including Section 3. Covered Classifications. The attached Resolution to establish the new Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer and Deputy Director of Public Works - Operations and Transportation job classifications and salary ranges will amend Section 3 of the Unaffiliated Compensation Rules to include these two new job classifications.

On September 22, 2022, the position of Environmental Services and Transportation Manager (ESTM) became vacant and since then, the more complex duties assigned to this position are being performed by the City Engineer and Public Works Manager. Over the past few years, the Department has been experiencing a consistent and gradual increase in complex work, in addition to the duties related to this vacancy, which is impacting the duties of the Engineering, Environmental, Traffic, and Operation divisions of the Public Works Department. The Department foresees the complexity and quantity of work will continue to grow as Federal and State regulations and reporting requirements are anticipated to increase, and the demand on the City's responsibility to maintain the infrastructure continues to increase.

The City Engineer position is required by State Law and cannot be eliminated. From 2015 to 2019, this function was performed for the City by a third-party contractor. In 2019, the City established a fulltime position to perform all Civil Engineering responsibilities. The City Engineer also develops the City’s capital improvement plan, prepares contract documents, performs bid analysis, signs mylars, staffs the Transportation Commission, prepares and administers Federal and State grants, supervises the Encroachment Permits, supervises engineering staff, and assists the Director with administrative responsibilities. The responsibilities in both quantity and complexity for this role have also increased to include the Environmental section's workload which has recently been assigned to the City Engineer, thereby making it necessary to expand the role of the City Engineer to perform more indepth administrative and regulatory functions.

In addition, the Public Works Manager position manages the six (6) Operation divisions which include Water, Sewer, Streets, Parks, Building and Fleet Maintenance divisions. This position assists with budget preparation, manages fund balances, and assists the Director with administrative responsibilities. The responsibilities in both quantity and complexity for this role have also increased to include the Transportation section's workload which has been assigned to the Public Works Manager, thereby making it necessary to expand the role to provide more in depth administrative and regulatory functions. The classification of Environmental Services and Transportation Manager will be unbudgeted once the two positions of Deputy Directors of Public Works have been filled.

DISCUSSION:

Human Resources continues to review the operating structure and job classifications in the City’s various departments to ensure competitiveness with the labor market and address changing operational needs. Based on the review of the current staffing needs in the Public Works Department, it was determined that the changes being recommended herein are necessary to support the growing needs of the Department's operations and the public it serves. This will also support succession planning for the City and provide a better career ladder for employees.

Therefore, it is recommended that the City adopt the new classifications and salary ranges for Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer and Deputy Director of Public Works - Operations and Transportation.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for the existing classifications of City Engineer and Public Works Manager were included in the City's Public Works Department’s Fiscal Year 2023 budget. Cost savings of $61,583.98 from the vacant Environmental Services and Transportation Manager position will also be used. As proposed, the salary control rate for the classification of Deputy Director of Public Works/City Engineer will be $14,764.59 per month (a $1,674.26 increase from the City Engineer control rate of $13,090.33 per month) and the salary control rate for the classification of Deputy Director of Public Works- Operations and Transportation will be $14,026.37 per month (a $2,893.33 per month increase from the Public Works Manager control rate of $11,133.04).

Title: Speed Hump Installation Project – Dexter Avenue between 1st Avenue and 2nd Avenue Presented By: Andy Bullington, Director of Public Works Rafael M. Fajardo, City Engineer
Recommendation: Approve recommendation from Traffic and Parking Advisory Commission for the installation of a speed hump at Dexter Avenue between 1st Avenue and 2nd Avenue.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY / BACKROUND:

During the past several months, the Public Works Department – Engineering Division has received service requests from residents for the installation of traffic calming speed humps on Dexter Avenue between 1st Avenue and 2nd Avenue. On December 13, 2022, City staff presented this request to the Traffic and Parking Advisory Commission for their consideration and approval. The Traffic and Parking Advisory Commission reviewed and approved staff’s recommendation for the installation of a speed hump on Dexter Avenue between 1st Avenue and 2nd Avenue.

Speed humps have been used as a traffic calming device in many cities to reduce vehicle speeds on local residential streets with a single travel lane in each direction. Speed humps are round, raised areas of asphalt constructed across the roadway width. The length of speed bumps are generally 12-feet with a maximum height of 3-inches; they can also span the full width of a street tapering at the gutters to not affect storm water flow.

DISCUSSION:

Dexter Avenue is a residential local roadway that runs East/West and carries one lane in each direction and is Stop Controlled at 1st Avenue and 2nd Avenue. The roadway is approximately 40-feet wide from curb face to curb face with parking allowed on the north and south side of the road with no street sweeping restrictions. There is a concrete sidewalk on both sides of the streets.

Several requests were made to the Engineering Division by residents living on Dexter Avenue from 1st Avenue to 2nd Avenue for the installation of traffic calming improvements. Residents stated that car speeds have increased due to the lack of stop signs and other traffic calming measures. According to the residents, cars are speeding up to the point that an accident may occur at anytime.

Residents living within this area submitted a Speed Hump Neighborhood Petition to the Engineering Division (Attachment A). City staff reviewed and analyzed their request according to the City's Speed Hump Policy. City staff determined that this street segment is eligible for speed hump installation due tot eh following conditions. • A substantial majority (67%) of residents on logical continuous segments of a local residential street must support the installation of speed humps; 72% approved the installation. • The street shall be no more than on lane in each direction. • The street should not be a truck route or a transit route. • The street should not have grades greater than 5%. On hilly/rolling streets, the eligible segment of the street shall meet the minimum sight distance requirements. • Streets eligible for the installation of speed humps shall have a posted speed limit of 30 mph or less as determined in accordance with State Law, and shall have an 85% percentile speed a minimum of 10 mph over the posted speed limit.
• The street should not have grades greater than 5%. On hilly/rolling streets, the eligible segment of the street shall meet the minimum sight distance requirements.

Streets less than 1,200 feet and greater than 600 feet may be eligible for speed humps provided they meet all other criteria and the street is continuous to street segments of 1,200 feet or longer with speed humps. The area in question along Dexter Avenue qualifies ultimately qualifies for the installation of a speed hump.

FISCAL IMPACT:

A total funding amount of $30,000 has been allocated from Measure M funding sources (Account No. 2420-2200- P2008) for the Traffic Calming Improvement Project in the City’s approved Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Capital Improvement Program Budget.

CEQA (CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT):

This project has been determined to be categorically exempt under CEQA in accordance with Title 14, Chapter 3, Class 1, Sections 15301 and 15302. This exemption includes the minor alteration of existing public facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's determination.

The project involves negligible or no expansion of an existing use.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

BACKGROUND:

July 12, 2021, Governor Gavin Newsom approved SB 129, which amended the State of California Budget Act of 2021 and included additional appropriations to cities for designated projects. The Budget Act of 2021 (SB 129) allocated $439 million in one-time funds to the California State Library, Building Forward: Library Infrastructure Grant Program. The program prioritizes funding for local library facilities for the following: 1. Projects addressing library facility life safety and other critical maintenance needs, 2. Projects for library facilities serving high poverty areas of the State.

Per the State of California Budget Act of 2021, there is a dollar-for-dollar match requirement. However, the State can reduce the amount of the required matching funds if the City can demonstrate that it is eligible and financially unable to provide the required matching funds. The City submitted the match reduction request on August 17, 2022, indicating the City's Local Income Per Capita (LIPC) levels were $18.23. The acceptance range for a 50% reduction was between a level of $40.00 and $15.01, thus qualifying the City. Upon the State Library's receipt and assessment of the request, the City was notified of the approval for the lower match request and the local match requirement was reduced by half.

The City Community Development Department staff worked with a grant writing consultant, Evan Brooks Associates, Inc., to prepare an application for the California State Library, Building Forward: Library Infrastructure Grant Program. The application requested funding for rehabilitation and reuse of the former Vita Pakt warehouse structure to a Library facility for the Covina Recreation Village Project. On September 12, 2022, the City received a letter from the Office of the California State Library informing the City that the Covina Metrolink Library Center at the Covina Recreation Village Project had been selected to receive $5,377,020 in grant funding through the California State Library, Building Forward: Library Infrastructure Grant Program. This grant will finance the interior fixturing and build-out of the library facility.

DISCUSSION:

This funding is administered by the Library Development Services Bureau of the State Library, whom the City is working with to submit the Supporting Documents (Attachment A). One component of the Supporting Documents is a resolution of the Council approving the application for grant funds, accepting the grant funds, and designating the City Manager as the Authorized Representative, which is being brought for your consideration today. These actions will allow the City to accept the funds and being using the funding. Funding through the State Library Infrastructure Grant Program will be used to pay for the construction of the Covina Library Center. Funds will be allocated, and accounts will be established in Resolution CC 2022-137. Once the supporting documents are approved and the Resolution is adopted, staff will submit all required documentation to the State Library. Once the State Library approves the documentation, the City will receive $2,688,510 of the award. The remaining funds will be made available following the City’s completion of the requirements outlined in the Grant Agreement and Certificate of Compliance document included in the award packet.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City of Covina will receive $5,377,020 in grant funding, with a 50% local match requirement of $2,688,510, which totals to $8,065,530 for the Building Forward, Library Infrastructure Grant. Pursuant to the requirements of the matching funds, funding from other grant sources as a match grant is allowable but may not include grants provided by the State. At this time, the State Library is requesting from the City, a letter confirming the availability of matching funds for the Covina Metrolink Library Center. The City’s Measure CC sales tax funds will be used as a local match.

Resolution CC 2022-137 will establish and appropriate the budget into the corresponding revenue and expenditure accounts and amend the Capital Improvement Project budget by transferring an additional $2,688,510 from available Measure CC funds to the Covina Recreation Village Project accounts for the library as listed in the Resolution.

SUBJECT: Response to October 19, 2022 Building Forward, Library Infrastructure Grant — COVINA PUBLIC LIBRARY — Covina Metrolink Library Center Award Letter
Dear Mr. Lucas:

Please accept this as a response to your correspondence dated October 19, 2022 which requests a letter from the City of Covina’s Finance Director confirming the availability of matching funds for the Covina Metrolink Library Center provided by the Building Forward, Library Infrastructure Grant.

Pursuant to your letter, I am writing to confirm that the City has suf?cient funds available for the 50% required local match contribution for the grant. The Covina City Council has appropriated the City’s Measure CC sales tax funds as a local match as detailed in Resolution CC 2022-137 attached hereto for your reference. Per the matching funding requirements, Measure CC is not a funding source derived from the State, therefore meeting the allowable local match contribution for the project.

Should you have any questions or require further veri?cation of the above-mentionedfunds, please feel free to contact me at (626) 384-5516 or [email protected].

Sincerely,
4 V /

CC Regular Meeting

AGENDA ITEM REPORT
ITEM NO. CC 17
Meeting: CC Regular Meeting - Dec 20 2022
Title: Side Letter Agreement between the City of Covina and AFSCME To Provide Reimbursement for Obtaining a Class A Commercial Driver's License and to Revise the Minimum Compensated Hours for Call Back Pay for Public Works Employees and Revise the Job Classifications for Maintenance Worker I and Water Distribution Operator I
Presented By: Andy Bullington, Director of Public Works Anita Agramonte, Director of Administrative Services
Suzanne Stone, Human Resources Manager
Recommendation: 1. Approve a Side Letter Agreement between the City of Covina and AFSCME to revise the current AFSCME MOU, ARTICLE 11- STANDBY AND CALL BACK, SECTION 11.2- CALL BACK PAY, to reflect the current practice of providing a minimum of three (3) hours of overtime pay and ARTICLE 21.

EDUCATIONAL REIMBURSEMENT PROGRAM, SECTION 21.6
LICENSES AND CERTIFICATES, to provide reimbursement to employees in the entry-level job classifications of Maintenance Worker I (MWI) and Water Distribution Operator I (WDOI) for their out-of-pocket costs related to driving courses and Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) fees to obtain a Class A commercial license, and also eliminate the requirement to have a Class A Commercial driver's license at time of appointment. The language specifying travel time will be removed. The Side Letter Agreement is attached hereto as Attachment A; and

2. Approve Resolution CC 2022-142 to revise the job classification specifications for Maintenance Worker I and Water Distribution Operator I to eliminate the unnecessary requirement to possess and maintain a Class A commercial driver's license. Resolution CC 2022-142 is attached hereto as Attachment B.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY / BACKROUND:

On July 6, 2021, the City Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Covina and AFSCME. On June 21, 2022, the City Council approved Resolution CC 2022-60, which included establishing a new job description of Maintenance Worker I and revising the job description for Water Distribution Operator I. The job descriptions for both job classifications include a requirement that incumbents must possess at time of appointment, and maintain throughout employment, a valid Class A Commercial driver's license with tanker and airbrake endorsements. This requirement is unnecessary for incumbents to perform the essential functions of their jobs. This has created unexpected obstacles for recruitment and retention and the City and AFSCME now desire to eliminate the Class A Commercial driver's license requirement for MWI and WDO I incumbents.

To support current employees in the entry-level positions of MWI and WDO I who wish to obtain their Class A commercial license in order to be eligible to promote to the MWII or WDO II positions, the City and AFSCME desire to revise the current AFSCME MOU to establish a process for reimbursing employees for the increased cost to train and then obtain a Class A commercial license. The new process will provide employees with reimbursement of up to $5,000.00 for related out-of-pocket expenses with receipts and valid documentation.

The City and AFSCME also recognized the MOU language under ARTICLE 11- STANDBY AND CALL BACK, SECTION 11.2- CALL BACK PAY, does not reflect the current or past practice of providing a minimum of three (3) hours of overtime pay, regardless of travel time. The City and AFSCME wish to maintain the current practice and ensure the language in the MOU is accurate.

DISCUSSION:

Over the years, the City has experienced difficulty in retaining employees after they obtained a Class A commercial license for which they received in-house training from the City. Employees would obtain their Class A commercial driver's license are more marketable for better-paying jobs and several incumbents have resigned from the City once they obtained the licensing.

Impacting the City's ability to successfully recruit and retain incumbents, the state has recently changed the requirements for qualifying for a Class A commercial license where individuals must now complete an extensive formal driver's training course with an independent driving school in order to become eligible to take the driving test with the DMV. This change has increased the difficulty for individuals to obtain a Class A license, which has subsequently decreased the pool of potential incumbents for the City when recruiting to fill these entry-level positions.

By revising the requirements for the MW I and WDO I job descriptions where incumbent are required to only have a Class C driver's license at time of appointment and will be reimbursed the cost of obtaining a Class A Commercial driver's license with tanker and airbrake endorsements, the potential employee pool increases significantly. It was also determined that incumbents in the MWI and WDO I classifications do not need to drive commercial vehicles. However, incumbents who have the desire to promote to a MW II or WDO II would have to have the Class A driver's license at the time of appointment. The City is willing to reimburse employees for the cost as this higher-level licensing will benefit the City.

The current cost to train and take the test for the Class A driver's license is between $4,000 to $5,000. The City will gradually reimburse active employees over a two-year period for expenses that are verified with receipts and not to exceed $5,000. The gradual reimbursement, beginning with $1,000 at the time the license is received will allow the City to retain qualified individuals and benefit from investing in this extensive formal training.

Provisions are included where an employee who separates from employment will only receive a prorated amount.

Also, employees who incur additional costs because they failed the test or let the process lapse will not be reimburse for the additional costs.

Regarding Call Back Pay, the current MOU states in relevant part:

Employees who are called back to work following the completion of their regular work shift and departure from their place of employment will receive a minimum of two (2) hours of overtime pay. For timekeeping purposes the two (2) hour minimum may include up to thirty (30) minutes of travel time in each direction.

Callback Pay and the two (2) hour minimum shall not be paid for routine work done as a continuation of the workday, or for planned work scheduled in advance with the employee, or for work scheduled on a holiday (as defined in Articles 25.1, 25.2 and 25.3) in advance with the employee.

Current and past practice has been that employees are paid a minimum of three (3) hours of overtime when called back to work, regardless of travel. Therefore, the City and AFSCME desire a change to the MOU language to accurately reflect the practice of paying a minimum of three (3) hours of overtime pay regardless of travel.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Providing a gradual reimbursement to employees for expenses incurred to obtain a Class A commercial license over a two-year period will alleviate the costs to the City and allow it to recognize the benefit of reimbursing incumbents for out-of-pocket expenses through retention. The total cost is dependent upon the number of employees who take advantage of the opportunity. The City estimates two to four reimbursements will be submitted annually, with a maximum initial cost of $4,000. The second reimbursement would be incurred one year later ($1,500 for each reimbursement request), and the final amount would be incurred two years later ($2,500 maximum for each reimbursement request). The Public Works Department's training budget has funds available to cover costs this fiscal year. Any increase will be requested at Mid-year and will be included in future budgets.

CITY OF COVINA

MAINTENANCE WORKER I
Assignments:

Streets and Tree Maintenance;
Hardscape and Special Projects;
and Sewer Maintenance
DEFINITION:

Under general supervision, performs a variety of unskilled routine or semi-skilled maintenance work, and operates a variety of equipment in the construction, repair, maintenance, and replacement of City infrastructure and related systems; operates trucks, equipment, power and hand tools; demonstrates an understanding of all applicable policies, procedures and work methods associated with assigned duties, performs other related duties as required relative to assigned area of responsibility. Incumbents are assigned to one of three areas in the Streets Division: Streets and Tree Maintenance, Hardscape and Special Projects, or Sewer Maintenance and may be rotated through the assignments at the supervisor’s discretion.

DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS:

The Maintenance Worker I is the entry level position in the Maintenance Worker series. This class is distinguished from the Maintenance Worker II by the performance of the more routine tasks and duties assigned to employees. Since this class is typically an unskilled class, employees may have only limited or no direct related work experience.

The Maintenance Worker II is the journey level class in this series. Advancement to the “II” level is based on demonstrated proficiency in performing the full range of assigned duties, and is at the discretion of higher level supervisory or management staff. Under immediate supervision, incumbents perform the full range of assigned duties to this class. Incumbents in this classification shall be available to work standby or work overtime in accordance with the AFSCME MOU, and respond to after-hours calls as needed. May be assigned to other public works divisions for maintenance work.

Level I (entry): Incumbents may perform many of the duties required of the positions at level II, but are not expected to function at the same skill level and exercise little independent discretion and judgment in matters related to work procedures and methods. Work is closely supervised while in progress and fits an established structure or pattern. Exceptions or changes in procedure are explained in detail as they arise.

Maintenance Worker I is part of a multi-level classification:

Maintenance Worker I
Maintenance Worker II
Maintenance Worker III
SUPERVISION RECEIVED/EXERCISED:

Receives general supervision from higher level operations staff.

Class specifications are only intended to present a descriptive summary of the range of duties and responsibilities associated with specified positions. Therefore, specifications may not include all duties performed by individuals within a classification. In addition, specifications are intended to outline the minimum qualifications necessary for entry into the class and do not necessarily convey the qualifications of incumbents within the position.
