EAST PALO ALTO

CITY COUNCIL

STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 17, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Melvin E. Gaines, City Manager
BY: Orly Amey, Assistant to the City Manager
Jimmie Tulabing, Information Technology Manager
Shiri Klima, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Informational Report on Councilmember Technology Policy Adopted by the City Manager
Recommendation
Receive an informational report from staff concerning the Councilmember Technology Policy adopted by the City Manager.

Alignment with City Council Strategic Plan
This recommendation is primarily aligned with:

Priority: Ensure Our Financial and Organizational Health Background
As the governing body of the City of East Palo Alto, the City Council adopts policy in many ways, including by passing resolutions, adopting ordinances, and approving the City’s budget. The City Manager, in turn, is responsible for implementing and administering internal policies and procedures that support efficient, secure, and effective City operations.

In response to Council requests and in alignment with best practices in public agency governance, the City Manager adopted a new administrative policy regarding the provision of technology to Councilmembers. The Council Technology Policy establishes guidelines for issuing and managing City-owned equipment used to conduct official City business. 8 CONSENT ITEM 3.3
Historically, the City of East Palo Alto did not issue dedicated technology such as laptops to Councilmembers; iPads were made available for meeting use, but this practice was phased out following the installation of desktop computers at the dais. Councilmembers have since relied on personal devices, which presents challenges related to cybersecurity, technical support, and compliance with the California Public Records Act (CPRA).

Analysis
To address requests by a Councilmember for devices as well as the concerns above, staff conducted a review of technology provision practices in 14 neighboring cities and in San Mateo County. This research revealed that the majority of peer jurisdictions provide Councilmembers with City-issued and IT-managed devices to ensure standardized security protocols, reduce risk, and support legal compliance. Examples include the cities of Cupertino and Menlo Park, where Councilmembers are issued a suite of devices managed by city IT Departments.

The City Manager’s Council Technology Policy mirrors those practices. Under the new policy, upon request, each Councilmember may receive a City-issued laptop and mobile phone, equipped with productivity tools, video conferencing software, and cybersecurity protections such as endpoint security and multifactor authentication. Each Councilmember can also request a webcam, keyboard, and mouse for home office use. For each device requested, the IT Manager shall offer the Councilmember the same options as are available to City staff.

Councilmembers may select from a limited set of standardized device options as determined by the IT Manager. A Councilmember may not request a unique device outside of these standard options unless he or she needs a reasonable accommodation (e.g., a lighter laptop for physical accessibility needs) or can demonstrate a particular need related to his or her City responsibilities that materially affects the ability to perform core duties.

Equipment and software will be managed and supported by the Information Technology Division of the City Manager’s Office. A Councilmember must return his or her laptop at the conclusion of each term. Should the Councilmember serve another term, he or she may request a laptop again, which may need to be replaced due to age and functionality of the laptop (at the discretion of the IT Manager). Councilmembers must return all other equipment – webcam, keyboard, mouse, and cell phone – when they separate from the City.

Councilmembers who opt not to use City-issued technology must confirm in writing that their personal devices used for City business meet minimum security standards, including up-to-date antivirus protection and software updates. All technology used for official business is considered public property with respect to the CPRA compliance.

The policy supports the City’s cybersecurity posture, enables consistent IT support, and ensures transparency in accordance with State law.

Fiscal Impact
9 CONSENT ITEM 3.3
There is no fiscal impact associated with this informational item. Costs for Councilmember equipment are already incorporated into the Information Technology budget.

Public Notice
The public was provided notice by making the agenda and report available on the City’s website and on a bulletin board located at City Hall: 2415 University Avenue, East Palo Alto.

Environmental
The action being considered does not constitute a “Project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378 (b)(5), in that it is a government administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.

Government Code § 84308
Applicability of Levine Act: No, as this does not relate to an entitlement or contract.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 17, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Melvin E. Gaines, City Manager
BY: Ana M Torres-Mondragon, Human Resources Manager
SUBJECT: Adopt Publicly Available Compensation Schedule for FY 2025-26 Recommendation
Adopt a resolution approving the Publicly Available Compensation Schedule for FY 2025-26.

Alignment with City Council Strategic Plan
This recommendation is primarily aligned with:

Priority: Ensure Our Financial and Organizational Health Background
Compensation consisting of salary and benefits paid to employees of the City of East Palo Alto is governed by the City’s Municipal Code, Personnel Policies and Procedures, negotiated and authorized memoranda of understanding with the three employee bargaining units Management Employees’ Association (MEA), Service Employees International Union Local 521 (SEIU), Police Officer Association (POA), and authorized compensation for unrepresented employees. As a member of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), the City also is subject to applicable provisions of the Public Employee Retirement Law (PERL) referenced in the California Government Code and the California Code of Regulations.

In accordance with East Palo Alto Municipal Code section 2.8.110, and as further codified in the City’s Personnel Policies and Procedures approved by the City Council on August 28, 1985 (Resolution No. 00210), Rule 3.9.01 states that “annually, the City Council shall establish the pay range and steps assigned to each classification in the City service.” The City maintains a Classification and Compensation Schedule inclusive of all authorized employee classifications.

This includes the salary ranges that depict salary steps associated with such authorized classifications.
13 CONSENT ITEM X.X
In addition to local policy requirements, Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations (C.C.R.) section 570.5 requires the City adopt a publicly available pay schedule for purposes of determining the amount of “compensation earnable” pursuant to California Government Code sections 20630, 20636, and 20636.1. Generally, compensation earnable is calculated using employee payrate and special compensation earned while working for the contracting agency (the City). It is paramount to have a properly adopted and administered pay schedule to assure both transparency and the accuracy of employee retirement benefits.

The City’s Compensation Schedule is required to meet eight criteria contained in 2 C.C.R. section 570.5, including that the schedule must be approved by the governing body (City Council). The schedule must be publicly accessible, and available for auditing purposes for at least five years. The schedule also requires the following: position titles; payrates for each position (ranges or steps); the time bases for how pay is calculated (i.e., hourly, bi-weekly); payrates’ effective dates; and any applicable revision dates. The schedule may not reference another document in lieu of disclosing the payrates.

Analysis
The City is presenting for adoption of the Fiscal Year 2025-26 City of East Palo Alto Compensation Schedule reflecting the following:

Citywide Update:
 SEIU and MEA
3% cost of living adjustment (COLA) increase effective 7/6/25 (pay date 7/25/25) approved via FY 2024-27 MOUs
 Unrepresented staff
3% cost of living adjustment (COLA) increase effective 7/6/25 (pay date 7/25/25), excluding City Manager and City Attorney, list in Attachment B  POA

 Assistant City Manager adjustment

To remain in compliance with the City compensation ordinance, personnel policies, and CCR section 570.5, staff is presenting the FY 2025-26 Annual Compensation Schedule. The City is presenting for adoption the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Compensation Schedule for all City classifications with the exception of the City Manager and City Attorney contractual classifications.

CONSENT ITEM 3.5

EAST PALO ALTO

CITY COUNCIL

STAFF REPORT
DATE: June 17, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: Melvin E. Gaines, City Manager
BY: Karen Camacho, Housing & Economic Development Manager Hanson Hom, Special Projects Manager
Amy Chen, Community & Economic Development Director
SUBJECT: Extension of Measure HH Pilot Workforce Development Program Agreements Recommendation
Adopt a resolution:

1. Authorizing the City Manager to negotiate and execute amendments to the license and grant agreements with Live In Peace, JobTrain, and StreetCode Academy, in a form approved by the City Attorney, to extend the contract terms for the Pilot Workforce Development Program of each agreement through December 31, 2025, with the option for a one-year extension at the City Manager’s discretion; and

2. Finding the proposed actions being considered do not constitute “Projects” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378 (b)(5), in that they are government administrative activities that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.

Alignment with City Council Strategic Plan
This recommendation is primarily aligned with:

Priority: using, Economic and Workforce Development
Background
Measure HH is a tax revenue approved by East Palo Alto voters, which revenue is restricted to three uses: (1) affordable/supportive housing (minimum 35% of funds), (2) workforce 33 CONSENT ITEM 3.5
development in STEM and building trades, and (3) administration (maximum 15%). The City Council launched the Measure HH Pilot Workforce Development Program in March 2023 (“Pilot Phase I”), awarding JobTrain, Live In Peace, and StreetCode Academy a total of $775,215 after a competitive request for proposals (“RFP”) process to provide job training, job placement, and support services. StreetCode Academy finished Pilot Phase I on August 31, 2024, while JobTrain and Live In Peace received an extension for Pilot Phase I until February 28, 2025. On July 15, 2025, third-party evaluation firm Informing Change will present an evaluation report with their findings and recommendations on the Pilot Workforce Development Program.

The Workforce Development Program Pilot Phase II (“Pilot Phase II”) was launched following the initial Pilot Phase I to allow the three selected contractors—Live In Peace, JobTrain, and StreetCode Academy—to continue providing job training, job placement, and support services to additional East Palo Alto residents. The City Council approved an additional allocation of $366,418 in Measure HH funds on September 3, 2024, to support this phase, which ran for nine months from September 1, 2024, to May 30, 2025.

This staff report provides an update on the Measure HH Workforce Development Program Pilot Phase II. Staff recommends a seven-month extension of the agreements for JobTrain, Live In Peace, and StreetCode Academy, from May 30, 2025, to December 31, 2025, with no additional budget allocation. This extension will align the contract period with actual program activities and allow the organizations to capture and report comprehensive program outcomes.

Analysis
For Pilot Phase II of the Measure HH Pilot Workforce Development Program, the City of East Palo Alto allocated a total of $366,418 in additional Measure HH funds to extend and expand workforce development services for East Palo Alto residents.

Pilot Phase II Funding Breakdown by Organization
 JobTrain received a total of $110,801 for Pilot Phase II. This amount was further divided into:
o $50,988 for the STEM Program (supporting 8 participants in IT Service & Support and 2 in Advanced IT Network Plus)
o $59,813 for the Building Trades Program (supporting 7 participants in Building Maintenance and 3 in Project Build: Carpentry Pre-Apprenticeship)  Live In Peace was allocated $137,267 for Pilot Phase II. This funding supports up to 10 additional East Palo Alto residents in a variety of programs, including Year Up (IT support), Bay Area Medical Academy, CAL ACE Nursing Academy, Eden Area ROP (electrical), Western Allied Mechanical (mechanical), and Junior College Tracks 24.  StreetCode Academy received $118,350 for Pilot Phase II. This funding supports 10 additional participants in STEM-focused programs, including Creating Coding Careers, Cañada College Certifications, Grow with Google, Coursera, and California Department of Industrial Relations Apprenticeships 21.
34 CONSENT ITEM 3.5
The following table summarizes the City Council-approved allocations to the three organizations:

Organization Pilot Phase II
Funding Program Focus Areas # Additional Participants
JobTrain $110,801 STEM & Building Trades 20 (10 STEM,
10 Trades)
Live In Peace $137,267 STEM & Building Trades 10
StreetCode Academy $118,350 STEM 10
Total $366,418 40
Pilot Phase II Program Expenditures To-Date
All three organizations have enrolled additional program participants with the Pilot Phase II funds: JobTrain – 10 participants; Live In Peace – 10 participants; and StreetCode Academy – 9 participant (1 pending). Funds were dispersed on a quarterly basis upon submittal of invoices and performance reports. Additionally, funds were dispersed per participant: 60% when a participant enrolled in a training course, and the remaining 40% at completion of the course. As of May 2025, 42% of the total funds had been expensed, for a remaining balance of $213,251.80 across all four programs. Attachment 2 provides a breakdown of the Phase II fund expenditures by each organization to date.

All three organizations have submitted letters requesting an extension of their agreements (see Attachments 3, 4, and 5). While Phase II participants are currently enrolled in training programs, most have not completed their training yet which is a condition for the organizations to receive their remaining allocations under the agreements. However, it is expected that participants will complete their training by the end of 2025.

Below is a summary of the status of each organization’s Pilot Phase II Program as of May 30, 2025:
 JobTrain Pilot Phase II Outcomes
As of February 28, 2025, JobTrain has achieved its Pilot Phase II goal of enrolling a total of twenty new participants. Of the enrolled participants, 50% are youth (ages 18–24) and 45% are adults (25+ years). The cohort is 90% male,5% female, and 5% did not disclose, with the majority identifying as Latinx (55%) and Black (23%). Most participants (84%) completed high school, and 55% were unemployed at the time of enrollment. 83% of participants across Pilot Phase I and Pilot Phase II have completed their training satisfactorily, with the highest completion rate in Project Build (100%), followed by IT Service & Support (81%), Building Maintenance (67%), and Advanced IT (50%). Students who did not complete their program satisfactorily either failed, voluntarily withdrew, or were removed due to absences. As of the most recent report, 75% of all JobTrain program completers (across both Pilot Phase I and 35 CONSENT ITEM 3.5
Pilot Phase II) have been placed in jobs, with an average starting wage of $28.95 per hour.  Live In Peace Pilot Phase II Outcomes
As of February 28, 2025, Live In Peace has achieved its Pilot Phase II goal of enrolling a total of ten new participants. Of the enrolled participants, 30% are youth (ages 18–24) and 70% are adults (25+ years). The cohort is 60% male and 40% female, with the majority identifying as Pacific Islander (50%), Biracial (30%), and Latinx (20%). All participants (100%) completed high school, and 60% were unemployed or underemployed at the time of enrollment. 94% of participants across Pilot Phase I and Pilot Phase II have either completed their training satisfactorily or are still enrolled and on track to complete. Among those who have completed their training across both Pilot Phase I and Pilot Phase II, 85% (11 out of 13) have secured jobs in their field with an average starting wage of $28.93 per hour.  StreetCode Academy Phase II Outcomes
As of May 30 2025, the StreetCode Academy has enrolled a total of nine new participants.

Participant ages range from 20 years old to 77 years old. The cohort is 21% male and 79% female, with the majority identifying as Latinx (64%), Black (21%), Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander (7%); 7% declined to state. Most participants (29%) have some college or training but no degree, while 21% completed college and 21% completed high school or the equivalent of a GED.1 At the time of enrollment, 36% were working part-time, 21% were students, 14% were retired and 14% were looking for employment, and 7% were working full-time. 75% of participants across Pilot Phase I and Pilot Phase II have completed at least one certificate. One student was hired part-time after their training to provide Spanish translation. Income levels varied, with 21% earning between $20,000 and $30,000 annually, 14% earning up to $20,000, and 14% earning between $30,000 and $50,000; 50% declined to state their income.

Next Steps
The contract extension through December 31, 2025, will align the contract period with actual program activities for the three organizations, and allow the organizations to capture and report comprehensive program outcomes. Staff anticipate issuing a new RFP for Workforce Development in early 2026 after City Council direction. The contract extensions will therefore not impact future workforce development programming.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact for this item, as no additional funds are requested for this extension.

The extension will utilize existing appropriations, and all expenditures will remain within the previously approved contract amounts.

Dear Members of the City Council,
On behalf of Live In Peace, I am writing to respectfully request an extension for the use of funds awarded to our organization through the Measure HH Grant Program.

Our trainees are making strong progress and remain on track to complete their respective programs successfully. However, in order to ensure they can complete the program and we can appropriately invoice for the full funding, we are requesting additional time added through to the end of the calendar year, 2025.

An extension would allow us to meet the intended outcomes of the grant and ensure that all Measure HH funds are utilized as effectively and impactfully as planned.

Of note, since the February 28, 2025 report, we have seen 9 students complete their training programs successfully. One has already been hired with an HVAC company, four have their electrician e-cards, and four are actively working with our life coaches for placements in the Cyber Security field. While this brings our placement rate down for the moment, the most recent graduates from the electrician and cyber security programs graduated within the past week (May 20 and 27), we anticipate living wage jobs and careers in the near future.

Thank you for your continued partnership collectively investing in the future of our community.

Please let us know if you need any further documentation or would like to discuss this request in more detail.

Sincerely,
Dr. Heather Starnes-Logwood, Ed.D.

Executive Director, Live In Peace

Subject: StreetCode Academy requests Phase II extension StreetCode Academy Work Innovation Program would like to extend the HH Grant Phase II Pilot Program through December 2025.

Between January and May of 2025, StreetCode enrolled 10 new students in Phase II of the program, which is an achievement considering our late start. This cohort is incredibly promising, with a diverse range of ages, backgrounds, and experiences.

Many are just beginning their Google certificate courses, and most still need to make significant progress to complete their certificates. An extension would provide these dedicated students with the crucial time and support needed to successfully finish their courses and achieve their goals. Below is a summary of the Pilot Phase II Outcomes To Date.

We believe extending Phase II will maximize the impact of the program and ensure our students have the best possible chance at success.

Thank you for considering this request. I'm happy to discuss this further at your convenience.

Sincerely,
