The City’s investment policy requires that the policy be reviewed and adopted annually. The City’s policy was first adopted by the City Council on May 15, 1996.

The policy has since been reviewed for update every year thereafter to ensure compliance and sound investment practices.

In preparing the update, the City’s investment advisor, Public Financial Management (PFM), was asked to review and provide comment. Their recommended changes are detailed in the attached memo, along with a strike-through version of the policy presented for consideration and approval.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:

The proposed Investment Policy and delegation of investment authorities is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with section 15378(b)(5) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is a governmental administrative activity.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Prudent investments provide for the safekeeping of funds and are an important revenue source.

All security transactions entered into by the City shall be con ducted on a delivery- versus-payment (DVP) basis.

Given this strategy, the basis used by the Director of Finance/Treasurer to determine whether market yields are being achieved shall be to compare the City’s portfolio yield to LAIF and two-year Treasury Note rates.

Background
In February 2025, the City Council adopted the Electric Vehicle Fleet Charging Station capital improvement project (253839PWCP). The City is in the process of transitioning a portion of its fleet to zero-emissions vehicles in order to comply with the California Air Resources Board (GARB) Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) regulations. Fleet electrification requires installation of charging stations and Infrastructure upgrades. The City is preparing its application for SDG&E rebates through the Power Your Drive program that may offset some of the costs associated with the proposed $3.3 millions project.

RFP No. 012-26 represents the first significant phase of the project by acquiring electrical and civil engineering services in order to continue coordination with SDG&E and prepare construction documents for construction of the charging stations.

Recommendation
The selection committee concluded that the design contract be awarded to the most qualified design consultant, Black & Veatch. The committee recommends that the City Council approve the contract in the amount of $244,064.00 at the October 14, 2025 or October 28, 2025 City Council meeting.

The RTIP is a prioritized capital improvement program designed to implement the region’s overall strategy for providing mobility and improving the efficiency and safety of the City’s transportation system. The City receives approximately $3.5 million annually in TransNet funds for transportation capital improvement projects.

This proposed amendment includes the following changes to the existing RTIP programmed list of projects and the TransNet account in the City’s financial accounting system:

Reduce the programmed amount of the EL03 Overlay/Reconstruction Projects account by ($111,000.00) in FY24/25, ($141,000) in FY25/26, and ($138,000) in FY26/27.

1. Eliminate the negative Carryover balance by $2,506,000, for a revised total of $9,678,000 for the current five-year project program.

2. The reduction in funding for the EL03 account is due to revisions in the TransNet revenue estimates for the City. Additionally, the carryover funding was revised to reflect the current balance of available funds for projects. SANDAG requires that any negative fund balances be removed in the current five-year program of projects. .!!!!_ Valley of opportunity

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:

The 2025 RTIP program of projects is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"), according to section 15301, Class 1 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Section 15301 contains an exemption for the maintenance of public roadways.

FISCAL IMPACT:

SANDAG requires the removal of all negative balances from the five-year program of projects.

The proposed reduction in TransNet funds to the aforementioned accounts does not impact any appropriations in the current Fiscal Year 25-26 budget, including the General Fund.

Agenda Item 12.

DATE: October 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Yazmin Arellano, Director of Engineering Services SUBJECT: All-Way Stop Sign Request on Naranca Avenue at Grape Street RECOMMENDATION:

BACKGROUND:

During its meeting on September 23, 2025, the City Council asked staff to analyze the need for a permanent all-way stop signs on Naranca Avenue at Grape Street; this request occurred during the the speed cushions discussion. Additionally, nearby residents have expressed concern about vehicles traveling at excessive speeds on Naranca Avenue as they use this street as an alternate bypass route to East Main Street.

Existing Conditions
Naranca Avenue is an east-west “residential” street that extends from East Main Street to North Mollison Avenue. Its speed limit is 25 miles per hour, per California Vehicle Code Section 22352, "Prima Facie" Speed Limits. Stop signs on Grape Street control the intersection, but there are no stop signs on Naranca Avenue. Approximately 4,500 vehicles travel through this intersection daily.

The corner sight distance was measured to determine if a vehicle traveling from Grape Street has adequate sight distance to enter onto Naranca Avenue safely. Based on the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, the minimum corner sight distance of 275 feet is desirable for a street with a posted speed limit of 25 miles per hour. The field investigation revealed that the available corner sight distance is less than desirable. Research into City records revealed that four (4) collisions have occurred in the vicinity of this intersection in the past five (5) years.

All-Way Stop Sign Analysis on Naranca Avenue and Grape Street The City of El Cajon follows the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control (CAMUTCD) guidelines and uses a “point” system developed by the City of San Diego to evaluate the need for the installation of all-way stop signs. Existing site conditions, traffic volumes, site distance, obstructions, proximity to schools, and accident history are criteria used in the determination of all-way stops. A minimum of 30 points out of 50 is typically required for the installation of all-way stop signs. The data collected at this intersection revealed that a total of 24 points were tallied at this location.

Although this intersection does not satisfy all the required all-way stop sign traffic volume and accident history warrants per the CAMUTCD, the less-than-desirable sight distance coupled with the need to reduce the speed of vehicles that are traveling in excess of 25 miles per hour is the justification for this installation. All-way stop signs are a traffic-calming measure to help reduce speeds in the vicinity of these intersections and will help facilitate pedestrian and traffic flow. Based on this information, staff recommends that City Council approves stop signs to be installed on Naranca Avenue at the intersection of Grape Street.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:

This project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with State CEQA Guidelines section 15301(c) (Class 1) as it is a minor alteration of an existing public street involving negligible or no expansion of an existing use.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approximately $3,500 for the installation of all-way stops signs and pavement legends. This cost is budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 Traffic Safety Calming project budget (233790PWCP).

RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH ALL-WAY STOP SIGNS

ON NARANCA AVENUE AT GRAPE STREET TO

ENHANCE PEDESTRIAN AND TRAFFIC SAFETY

WHEREAS, the City Council recognizes that the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of the City of El Cajon ( "City") are vitally important, and that from time to time vehicular traffic control measures, including additional regulatory signs, are necessary to protect pedestrian traffic along and across public roads; and

WHEREAS, stop signs are present on Grape Street to control the intersection, while Naranca Avenue has no stop signs , and approximately 4,500 vehicles travel through this intersection daily; and

WHEREAS, based on the Caltrans Highway Design Manual, a minimum corner sight distance of 275 feet is desirable for streets with a posted speed limit of 25 miles per hour; and as part of a field investigation, the corner sight distance was measured to determine if a vehicle traveling from Grape Street has an adequate sight distance to safely enter onto Naranca Avenue, with the results showing that the available corner sight distance is less than the desirable sight distance requirement; and

WHEREAS, research of City records revealed that four (4) collisions have occurred at this intersection in the past five (5) years; and

WHEREAS, the City follows the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (“CAMUTC”) guidelines and uses a "point" system developed by the City of San Diego to evaluate the need for the installation of all-way stop signs, in which existing site conditions, traffic volumes, site distance obstructions, proximity to schools, and accident history are criteria used in the determination of all-way stops at intersections; and

WHEREAS, a minimum of thirty (30) points out of fifty (50) is typically required for the installation of all-way stop signs, and the results of the data collected revealed that a total of twenty-four (24) points were tallied at this intersection; however, the lack of a desirable sight distance remains a safety concern justifying the installation of all-way stop signs at the intersection; and

WHEREAS, the fiscal impact for the installation of all- way stop signs, stop ahead signs, pavement legends, etc. is approximately $3 ,500.00, and sufficient funds are budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2025 -26 Traffic Safety Calming (233790PWCP) project budget; and

DATE: October 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Megan Blake, Human Resources Manager
SUBJECT: Mayor and City Council Cafeteria Benefits Review RECOMMENDATION:

BACKGROUND:

The City periodically reviews compensation and benefits for all of its employees, including the Mayor and City Councilmembers. Last year, Mayor and Councilmembers' cafeteria benefit allotment was readjusted to match the amount general employees receive. Staff recommends maintaining the cafeteria benefit allotment in line with the amount issued to the general employees for the 2026 benefit plan year.

The cafeteria benefit allotment for general City staff in 2025 is $1,550/month and will be adjusted to $1,700/month effective January 1, 2026. Staff recommends the Mayor and City Councilmembers’ cafeteria benefit allotment be adjusted to $1,700/month effective January 1, 2026 to match the general City staff cafeteria benefit allotment.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:

City Council approval of the proposed cafeteria benefit allotment is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") in accordance with section 15378(b)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is a personnel-related action and therefore not a project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This recommended adjustment will result in an increase of $4,500 in FY25-26 and $9,000 in FY26-27. There are sufficient funds available in the FY25-26 budget for org 101100 (Mayor-City Council) for this year's expenditure.
