SUBMITTED BY: April Foran, City Clerk
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EMERYVILLE APPROVING THE 2026 AMENDMENT OF THE CITY OF EMERYVILLE'S

CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council approve the above-entitled resolution revising the City’s Conflict of Interest (COI) Code, with the amended COI Code taking effect upon approval. The City is required by state law to complete a biennial review of its COI Code by December 31st and amend the Code as necessary.

BACKGROUND
A local agency’s Conflict of Interest (COI) Code is a listing of employee positions, consultants, and advisory committee members for whom it has been determined that, within the scope of their duties, either make or participate in making governmental decisions that may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest they may have, and therefore, are required to disclose their financial interests. The COI Code must reflect the current structure of the organization and properly identify the titles of those who should be filing Statements of Economic Interest (FPPC Form 700). The COI Code tells the designated filers which financial interests they must disclose and helps provide transparency in local government as required under the Political Reform Act.

DISCUSSION
To ensure that the COI Code remains current and accurate, each agency is required to review its COI Code at least every other year. State law requires that all changes be submitted to the reviewing body, in this case the City Council, for approval as an amendment to the COI Code.
▪ Incorporation Section (Terms of the Code) - This section designates where the Form 700s are filed and retained (i.e., the agency or the FPPC). This section also must reference Regulation 18730, which provides the rules for disqualification procedures, reporting financial interests, and references the current gift limit. (Appendix A)
2026 Conflict of Interest Code Amendment
City Council Meeting | September 1, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

▪ List of Designated Positions - The code must list all agency positions that involve the making or participation in making of decisions that “may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest.” This covers agency members, officers and employees, and it may include volunteers on a committee if the members make or participate in making government decisions. (Appendix B) ▪ Detailed Disclosure Categories - A disclosure category is a description of the types of financial interests that officials in one or more job classifications must disclose on their Form 700 filing. The categories must be tailored to the financial interests affected and must not require public officials to disclose private financial information that does not relate to their public employment. (Appendix C) The City Council last amended the COI Code on September 3, 2024. Staff have reviewed the positions covered by the COI Code with the City Attorney to ensure that the appropriate positions are covered. The COI Code is amended to reflect the following actions:
▪ Delete titles of positions that have been eliminated. ▪ Update filled and vacant positions.

If additional new or revised classifications, deemed likely to be subject to the COI Code, are established before the next formal adoption of a revised COI Code, the City is required to file a Form 804 Agency Report for those new/revised classifications. Staff in those new/revised classifications will be required to complete a Form 700, reporting the disclosure requirement reflected on the Form 804, even if the Code itself has not been formally revised to incorporate the positions.

The proposed new City of Emeryville COI Code is attached to this report with changes tracked for easy identification.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to accept a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) in the amount of $50,000 for traffic safety education and enforcement programs within the City and expend these grant funds to continue education and enforcement of traffic related laws relating to bicycle and pedestrian safety to reduce injury and fatal traffic collisions within the City and increase the department’s FY26/27 Budget by $50,000.

BACKGROUND
OTS’s mission is to effectively and efficiently administer traffic safety grant funds to reduce traffic deaths, injuries, and economic losses. The grant funding decisions by OTS are facilitated by two types of rankings: injuries and collision rankings and DUI arrest rankings. In addition, these rankings help identify emerging traffic safety problem areas.

The rankings compare traffic safety between cities with similar-sized populations and help them identify disproportionate traffic safety problems.

To enhance the ability of the Police Department to improve traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety in the City, the Police Department applied for and was awarded grant funding by OTS STEP. This well-established state funding program offers funding to law enforcement agencies for the specific purpose of increasing traffic safety conditions within their judications. This funding will be used for directed enforcement operations, community outreach presentations, and educational material.

This grant will provide financial support to the Police Department for overtime for traffic enforcement operations, officer training, and community outreach presentations. The Police Department expects that this grant will assist in increasing traffic safety for the motoring public, bicyclists, and pedestrians throughout the City. Additionally, the grant DATE: September 1, 2026

funds will be applied to focused enforcement and education surrounding dangerous DUI driving with the goal of reducing DUI related traffic collisions. These enforcement efforts will concentrate on primary factors for traffic collisions, which also includes driving while impaired (drugs or alcohol) and additional moving violations such as speeding, and redlight violations.

Some of the programs that would be implemented under this grant include:
• DUI saturation patrols,
• Distracted driving enforcement,
• Red light, intersection, and speeding enforcement,
• Vehicle enforcement for pedestrian and bicycle safety violations • Motorcycle safety enforcement operations,
• Providing additional training to officers in the investigation of DUI drivers, • Community outreach and educational presentations focused on traffic and pedestrian safety.

The grant also provides opportunities for officers to provide focused enforcement on traffic related problems and complaints within the community. Part of the implementation of the STEP program will be accomplished by deploying personnel on a grant funded overtime basis along high injury road networks. This program will concentrate on DUI, general traffic enforcement, motorcycle safety, pedestrian and bicycle safety, and distracted driving enforcement. The operations are accompanied by media releases, thus broadening the overall deterrent effect.

The grant funding received has been broken down into the following funding categories:
• Personnel Overtime Enforcement / Outreach $47,920.00
• Officer Training Expenses $2,080.00
Using grant funds, officers will be trained in recognizing impaired driving and investigations. Training may consist of Drug Recognition (DRE), Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) and Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST).

Community outreach educational operations have also been approved in this grant.

These programs provide an excellent opportunity for police staff to engage the community in an educational and partnership building environment. Prior grant awards have shown very positive feedback from the community, particularly in outreach efforts.

In addition to the enforcement operations, a community awareness program will be utilized. The Police Department will work to create media opportunities throughout the grant period to call attention to the innovative program strategies and outcomes. The Police Department will be required to submit Quarterly Performance Reports and OTS STEP Grant Report
City Council Meeting | September 1, 2026

Page 3 of 4 ends

Quarterly Evaluation data forms to the Office of Traffic Safety.

The grant period is October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027.

DISCUSSION
Accepting this grant award will improve traffic safety in the City, including for bicyclists and pedestrians. Officers will focus on enforcement operations specifically designed to target unsafe motor vehicle drivers, thereby increasing bicycle and pedestrian safety.

There is no requirement for the City to provide matching funds.

No grant operations or expenditure will commence before the grant agreement is approved as to form by the City Attorney’s Office and fully executed.

FISCAL IMPACT
OTS grant funding is based on the federal fiscal year calendar, which begins on October 1 st and ends on September 30th. The City’s expenditures will come from FY26/27 and FY27/28 budgets. The fiscal impact to the City will be the initial expenditure of overtime costs to conduct the various traffic operations. The grant operates through a quarterly reimbursement process and as such there will be no impact to the budget.

Personnel and training costs will be submitted to OTS on a quarterly basis. Depending on the specific dates of the operations and purchases, reimbursements are largely anticipated to occur during the city’s FY26/27 fiscal year.

Some police staff time will be required to administer the awarded grant. The staff’s time is considered part of their normal duties.

The Police Department is requesting to increase both the revenues account (254-53650) and expenditures (254-71050) in the grant fund by $50,000 to accommodate the initial expense and the reimbursement of funds from the State.

STAFF COMMUNICATION WITH THE PUBLIC
Staff will disseminate press releases both for award of the grant and for various focused safety operations as they are conducted. There has been no communication with the public yet.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST
None.

CONCLUSION
This program offers an opportunity for the City of Emeryville, the Emeryville Police Department and the Emeryville community to enhance its traffic safety without impacting the budget. Staff recommend accepting the grant award.

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact.

The City of Emeryville is located at the western approach to the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge and is bordered by the cities of Oakland and Berkeley in Alameda County. While Emeryville’s residential population is approximately 13,000, the city’s daytime population increases to nearly 40,000 due to commuters, visitors, and employees traveling to and through the city. Emeryville is a regional destination offering a wide range of dining, entertainment, and recreational opportunities, including Bay Street, Shorebird Park, and a growing arts community. In addition, the City has approved recreational cannabis manufacturing, distribution, and retail businesses, which are expected to further increase visitor traffic and vehicle volumes.

The Emeryville community, City staff, and City Council share a goal of making Emeryville one of the safest cities in the Bay Area for bicyclists and pedestrians. The City has invested in infrastructure and safety initiatives such as the San Francisco Bay Trail, the Emeryville Bicycle Greenway connecting neighboring jurisdictions, and the Slow Streets program. These initiatives reflect Emeryville’s commitment to reducing traffic-related injuries and fatalities, particularly among vulnerable road users, and advancing toward a goal of zero serious and fatal traffic crashes.

The City of Emeryville and the Emeryville Police Department remain committed to reducing traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries, particularly those involving alcohol and drug impairment, excessive speed, and other primary crash factors. Through a combination of targeted DUI and traffic enforcement, public education, media outreach, and focused enforcement of high-risk behaviors, the City seeks to improve roadway safety for residents, commuters, and visitors while supporting its long-term vision of safer streets for all road users.

Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats).

Despite ongoing investments in traffic safety infrastructure and prevention initiatives, traffic-related injuries and unsafe driving behaviors remain a significant concern in the City of Emeryville. OTS Crash Ranking Results reports consistently show that DUI and traffic-related offenses exceed those of comparable jurisdictions. While DUI arrest data reflects enforcement activity, it represents only a portion of impaired drivers traveling through Emeryville, many of whom pass through the city undetected. During the COVID-19 pandemic, injury crashes temporarily declined due to reduced traffic volumes; however, as traffic levels returned to pre-pandemic patterns, injury crashes have increased.

In calendar year 2025, Emeryville Police Department officers made 40 DUI-related arrests, compared to 36 in 2024, indicating continued impaired driving activity. Due to limitations in SWITRS data availability prior to 2020, the Department relied on internal records to analyze recent crash trends. While fatal crashes declined from two in 2024 to zero in 2025, injury-related traffic crashes increased by approximately 49 percent, rising from 57 in 2024 to 85 in 2025. This increase highlights the ongoing prevalence of unsafe driving behaviors and the potential for serious or fatal outcomes if these trends are not addressed.

Speeding remains the leading primary crash factor contributing to injury crashes in Emeryville. In 2025, approximately 37 percent of injury-related crashes were attributed to speed-related violations, an increase from 28 percent in 2024. Improper turning movements accounted for 15 injury-related traffic crashes in 2025, representing 17 percent of injury crashes, an increase from 9 percent in 2024. Injury-related traffic crashes involving traffic signal violations decreased from 19 percent in 2024 to 11 percent in 2025. Despite year-to-year fluctuations, these three primary crash factors—speeding, improper turning, and traffic signal violations—have consistently been the leading causes of injury and fatal traffic crashes within the City.

These data trends underscore the need for continued, data-driven enforcement, education, and public awareness efforts to reduce impaired driving, speeding, and other high-risk behaviors that contribute to traffic-related injuries and fatalities
.

Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s).

The target population for this grant includes all roadway users within the City of Emeryville, including residents, commuters, visitors, and employees who travel to and through the city each day. Due to Emeryville’s location at the base of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge and its role as a regional destination for employment, dining, entertainment, and retail, the city experiences traffic volumes that significantly exceed its residential population. These increased traffic volumes elevate the risk of crashes involving impaired driving, excessive speed, distracted driving, and other primary crash factors.

A primary focus of this grant is drivers who engage in alcohol- and drug-impaired driving, distracted driving, and speeding, as these behaviors are leading contributors to injury and fatal crashes within the City.

Impaired drivers pose a heightened risk not only to themselves but to all roadway users, particularly during peak commuting hours, evenings, and weekends when traffic volumes and social activity increase.

The grant will serve at-risk and vulnerable populations, including pedestrians, bicyclists, and micromobility users. Emeryville has invested heavily in active transportation infrastructure, including the San Francisco Bay Trail, the Emeryville Bicycle Greenway, and Slow Streets initiatives, which have increased pedestrian and bicycle activity throughout the city. While these improvements promote healthier and more sustainable transportation options, they also increase exposure to traffic-related hazards when motorists engage in unsafe behaviors such as speeding, impaired driving, or red light violations. Pedestrians and bicyclists are particularly vulnerable in crashes and are more likely to suffer serious or fatal injuries when involved in crashes with motor vehicles.

Additional at-risk populations include nighttime drivers, commuters traveling through Emeryville, and visitors unfamiliar with local roadways, traffic patterns, or active transportation corridors. The presence of entertainment venues, special events, and cannabis-related businesses further contributes to impaired driving risk and increases the likelihood of alcohol- and drug-related crashes.

DATE: September 1, 2026
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: LaTanya Bellow, City Manager
SUBMITTED BY: Jeff Jennings, Police Chief
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EMERYVILLE

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ACCEPT AND EXPEND A

GRANT FROM THE CHP CANNABIS TAX FUND GRANT PROGRAM
(CTFGP) TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF
$154,881.90 FOR REDUCING IMPAIRED DRIVING AND IMPROVING

TRAFFIC, BICYCLE, AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY WITHIN THE CITY AND INCREASE THE FY26/27 BUDGET BY $154,881.90

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to accept and expend a grant from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program (CTFGP) in the amount of $154,881.90 for traffic safety education and enforcement programs within the City, increase the FY26/27 budget by $154,881.90, and authorize the Police Department to utilize the grant funds to continue its education and enforcement of traffic laws related to impaired driving and improving bicycle and pedestrian safety within the City.

BACKGROUND
The CHP, Impaired Driving Section, Cannabis Grant Unit, has been charged with managing the California cannabis tax revenue funds. This unit made grant funds available to local law enforcement to aid in the education and enforcement of traffic laws related to impaired driving and improving bicycle and pedestrian safety within the City. The grant project guidelines provide funding for:
▪ Police overtime costs which increase driving under the influence (DUI)/driving under the influence of drugs (DUID) enforcement efforts ▪ General prevention education and community outreach designed to educate the public about the dangers of impaired driving
▪ Equipment directly related and necessary to complete grant-funded activities included in the Project.

The purpose of this grant funding is to enhance the ability of the Police Department to increase its efforts in reducing driving under the influence/driving under the influence of drugs (DUI/DUID) driving incidents and improving traffic, bicycle, and pedestrian safety within the City. The Police Department expects that this grant will assist in increasing traffic safety for the motoring public, bicyclists, and pedestrians within the City.

FY 26/27 CTFGP Law Enforcement Grant
City Council Meeting | September 1, 2026

Page 2 of 3 ends

Additionally, the grant funding will enhance the department’s efforts to reduce DUI/DUID related traffic collisions. Enforcement operations will be directed at locations with a disproportionate number of DUI/DUID incidents, traffic collisions where pedestrians and bicyclists’ safety are at risk and will be accompanied by educational outreach. These strategies are designed to attract media attention, thus enhancing the overall deterrent effect.

The grant funding received has been broken down into the following funding categories:
▪ Personnel Overtime Enforcement $47,880.00
▪ Education and Outreach $15,960.00
▪ Equipment $91,041.90
The equipment approved in the grant includes:
▪ Fully equipped DUI enforcement police patrol vehicle. ▪ Fatal Vision Alcohol Impairment goggles.

Community outreach educational operations funded by this grant will include those specifically related to DUI/DUID and traffic safety presentations. Past grant awards have been met with very positive feedback from the community, particularly for outreach efforts like the ones funded by this grant.

In addition to enforcement operations, a community awareness program will be undertaken. The Police Department will work to create media opportunities throughout the grant period to call public attention to the program strategies and outcomes. The Police Department will be required to submit Quarterly Performance Reports and Quarterly Evaluation data forms through the relevant standardized grants portal.

The grant period is from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027.

DISCUSSION
The benefits of this grant award will directly impact traffic safety in the City by improving traffic safety. Reducing DUI/DUID driving, increasing bicycle and pedestrian safety, and conducting community educational outreach in the City are the primary goals of this funding.

The CHP Grants Section is working on finalizing the grant agreements for local agencies and advised that the anticipated release date for this grant agreement will be in the weeks after approval from City Council. As of the date this report was drafted, EPD has received a tentative grant agreement.

City Council Meeting | September 1, 2026

FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact to the City will be the initial expenditure of equipment purchasing and overtime costs to conduct various traffic operations. However, since the CHP CTFGP grant operates through a quarterly reimbursement process, there will be no real impact to the department’s budget. This is not a cost match grant. Some police staff time will be required to administer the grant but this staff time is considered part of their normal duties.

Because CHP CTFGP grant funding is based on the City’s fiscal year, the City of Emeryville’s expenditures will come from the FY26/27 budget. The personnel costs will be submitted to CHP CTFGP on a quarterly basis for reimbursement.

The Police Department is requesting both the department’s revenues and expenditures be adjusted for this grant. The revenue account (254-53650) should be adjusted to account for the increase of $154,881.90. The equipment expenditure account (254- 91510) should be adjusted by $91,041.90 to accommodate the approved equipment purchasing. The overtime expenditure account (254-71050) should be adjusted by $63,840.00 to accommodate the projected overtime expenditure.

STAFF COMMUNICATION WITH THE PUBLIC
There has been no communication with the public regarding this grant. However, there will be a targeted public media campaign as discussed above.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST
None.

CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to accept and expend a grant from the CHP Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program (CTFGP) to the Police Department in the amount of $154,881.90.

Emeryville PD
The Grantor determined awards and adjustments based on the Project’s merit, operational scale, compliance with the Request for Application (RFA), and program regulations. Certain activities or budget items proposed in Schedule A may have been deemed ineligible for funding. The final, binding list of authorized activities and expenses is set forth in Schedule B - Detailed Budget Estimate.

Project Description
The proposed project will acquire specialized enforcement and documentation equipment to enhance officers’ ability to detect, investigate, and enforce DUI/DUID violations and accurately document injury collisions involving drug-impaired driving. These tools will immediately improve the accuracy, consistency, and reliability of data collected related to DUI enforcement activity, impairment indicators, and collision investigations.

This project represents a focused, enforcement-driven, and data-informed strategy to reduce impaired driving and improve traffic safety. Deployment of a clearly marked Ford Explorer with DUI Enforcement markings, paired with modern vehicle-based and enforcement technologies, will increase enforcement visibility, enhance officer effectiveness, and ensure standardized documentation of enforcement actions and collision data.

Collected data will be tracked and analyzed to identify impaired-driving trends and evaluate the project’s impact on reducing DUI-related collisions, injuries, and fatalities. This approach strengthens accountability and advances the department’s mission to protect the public and reduce impaired-driving harm on local roadways.

Fatal Vision Goggles and floor banners will be show cased at targeted community outreach events—including the Harvest Festival, National Night Out, Coffee with a Cop, and other City-sponsored functions—to deliver high-impact impaired-driving education through interactive, hands-on engagement. We believe with Fatal Vision, EPD can have a more open conversation with the community regarding impaired driving.

Problem Statement
Impaired driving involving alcohol, drugs, or a combination of both remains a significant and preventable traffic safety issue in the City of Emeryville, contributing to collisions, injuries, and fatalities. During the calendar year 2025, Emeryville Police Department officers made 40 DUI-related arrests, compared to 36 arrests in 2024, this is an approx. 11% increase in DUI/DUID related arrests. All arrests were referred to the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office for prosecution.

Emeryville faces elevated impaired-driving risk due to several unique geographic and community factors. The city hosts four active cannabis businesses, including a smoking lounge located near alcohol-serving establishments, increasing the likelihood of drug- and polysubstance-impaired driving. Emeryville also serves as a major commuter corridor between Oakland and Berkeley with direct access to Interstate 80, resulting in high daily traffic volumes and increased exposure to impaired drivers. While the city has a residential population of approximately 12,989, the population expands to an estimated 40,000 during daytime business and manufacturing hours.

Additionally, Emeryville anticipates the opening of a new full-service hospital with emergency services, approximately 200 patient rooms, and an intensive care unit. The hospital is expected to significantly increase traffic volumes due to patients, visitors, employees, and emergency vehicle activity, further elevating the risk of DUI/DUID incidents, particularly during evening, nighttime, and weekend hours.

Goals:

1. Reduce impaired driving incidents through education, enforcement, and community engagement.

2. Enhance officer efficiency, effectiveness, and safety in impaired driving enforcement.

3. Foster community trust and collaboration to address impaired driving comprehensively.

Proposed Solutions:

1. Public Education and Awareness
• Conduct in-person presentations at schools, community centers, and public events on the dangers of impaired driving and its consequences.
• Partner with local businesses to display warning materials about the effects of alcohol and drug use on driving abilities.

Docusign Envelope ID: C9C8AFDB-B3D5-8CE7-822B-8793CAEA54BF Schedule A
• Collaborate with community organizations to raise awareness through campaigns like Know Your Limit.

2. Strengthened Enforcement
• Deploy marked, highly visible traffic enforcement vehicles dedicated to DUI/DUID enforcement. • Equip officers with advanced tools such as portable breath testers and field drug-testing kits to enhance scene investigation and accurate documentation for future prosecution.

Increase officer training in Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement (ARIDE) and drug recognition expertise.

3. Community Engagement
• Host events such as Coffee with a Cop, National Night Out, and Know Your Limit campaigns to facilitate face-to-face conversations with residents.
• Engage city leaders in discussions about traffic safety priorities and shared responsibilities in combating impaired driving.

Requested Equipment:
1: Highly Visible DUI Enforcement Ford Explorer
During DUI saturation patrols and responses to major DUI/DUID collisions, officers require specialized equipment that must be rapidly deployed to ensure effective enforcement. This includes PAS devices, portable lights, field sobriety kits, measuring tools, and safety gear. To maintain readiness and protect these critical resources, it is essential to stage the equipment within a highly visible, dedicated DUI enforcement vehicle. This ensures tools remain secure, organized, and immediately accessible, supporting efficient and effective DUI/DUID enforcement operations.
2: Fatal Vision Goggles and Educational Banners
The Emeryville Police Department requests Fatal Vision Goggles and impaired-driving educational banners to enhance DUI/DUID prevention and public outreach. These tools will be deployed at targeted community events—including National Night Out, the Harvest Festival, Coffee with a Cop, and other City-sponsored events—to educate the public on the dangers and consequences of impaired driving.

Fatal Vision Goggles provide hands-on demonstrations simulating alcohol and drug impairment while participants attempt standardized field sobriety tasks, delivering an immersive experience that reinforces realworld risks. Educational banners increase visibility at events and enforcement operations, reinforce prevention messaging, and complement ongoing DUI/DUID enforcement efforts. Deployment will be tracked through event participation and usage metrics to evaluate effectiveness. Last year, the department participated in 53 community events; funding will allow Fatal Vision demonstrations to be integrated into these events during the upcoming fiscal year and sustained in future years.

Implementation Plan

1. Education and Awareness Campaign: Launch a citywide initiative targeting schools, businesses, and community events.

2. Training and Equipment Deployment: Provide specialized training to officers and integrate new tools into enforcement operations.

By integrating these strategies and resources, the Emeryville Police Department will not only combat impaired driving more effectively but also set a strong example of proactive, community-oriented policing.

(30) DUI Saturation Patrols: (Q1=6, Q2=8, Q3=8, Q4=8) Our goal is to reduce the number of impaired drivers in the City of Emeryville by 5%, which will improve overall community safety from impaired drivers.

Docusign Envelope ID: C9C8AFDB-B3D5-8CE7-822B-8793CAEA54BF Schedule A
(25) Dedicated traffic enforcement: Our goal is to reduce impaired driving, injury, and non-injury traffic collisions, and improve pedestrian and bicycle safety. We aim to achieve a 5% reduction in these incidents, thereby enhancing roadway safety for all who travel within the city. To support this goal, DUI saturation patrols and Primary Collision Factor (PCF) saturation patrols will be conducted quarterly to identify and deter impaired drivers. Patrol targets for each quarter are as follows: Q1 – 5 patrols, Q2 – 6 patrols, Q3 – 6 patrols, and Q4 – 8 patrols.
(10) Educational Presentations: EPD officers will engage with the community at events such as Coffee with a Cop, National Night Out, and other city events throughout the year. With each event, EPD officers aim to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving and emphasize how little alcohol and drugs it takes to reach the legal limit. The primary goal is to educate the public on the effects of alcohol and drugs so they can make informed decisions before choosing to drive. The department plans to conduct the following number of presentations: Q1 - 3, Q2 - 3, Q3 - 2, and Q4 - 2.

Our overall goal is to increase impaired driving awareness, reduce impaired driving, make impaired driving arrests, reduce traffic collisions, and improve road safety for all citizens in the city of Emeryville.

Requested Equipment:

As a smaller department with limited resources, acquiring advanced technology and equipment is essential to achieving our goals of improving public safety and enhancing the efficiency of DUI investigations. The following equipment will assist the department in conducting accurate and efficient investigations, ultimately strengthening cases for prosecution.
1: Highly Visible DUI Enforcement Ford Explorer
During DUI saturation patrols and responses to major DUI/DUID collisions, officers require specialized equipment that must be rapidly deployed to ensure effective enforcement. This includes PAS devices, portable lights, field sobriety kits, measuring tools, and safety gear. To maintain readiness and protect these critical resources, it is essential to stage the equipment within a highly visible, dedicated DUI enforcement vehicle, ensuring tools remain secure, organized, and immediately accessible to support efficient and effective DUI/DUID enforcement operations.
2: Fatal Vision Goggles and Educational Banners
The Emeryville Police Department requests Fatal Vision Goggles and impaired-driving educational banners to enhance DUI/DUID prevention and public outreach. These tools will be deployed at targeted community events—including National Night Out, the Harvest Festival, Coffee with a Cop, and other City-sponsored events—to educate the public on the dangers and consequences of impaired driving. Fatal Vision Goggles provide hands-on demonstrations simulating alcohol and drug impairment while participants attempt standardized field sobriety tasks, delivering an immersive experience that reinforces real-world risks.

Educational banners increase visibility at events and enforcement operations, reinforce prevention messaging, and complement ongoing DUI/DUID enforcement efforts.

Anticipated Outcomes:

During the current grant cycle, the department has investigated (7) DUI-related injury collisions and (0) DUIrelated fatal collisions. Based on current trends, we anticipate exceeding FY 24/25 injury-related DUI collisions. Compared to the FY 23/24 grant period, DUI-related fatal collisions have decreased by 100%. • Reduction in Impaired Driving Incidents: Reduce DUI-related fatal collisions from 1 to zero and decrease DUI-related injury collisions through targeted enforcement, public education, and community outreach.
• Improved Community Trust: Strengthen collaboration between the department and residents, fostering a shared commitment to roadway safety.
• Increased Officer Efficiency: Streamline investigations and improve prosecution success rates through accurate documentation and advanced tools.
• Enhanced Public Safety: Promote safer roadways for residents, workers, and visitors throughout Emeryville.

Project Performance Evaluation
The project’s performance evaluation will be data-driven, leveraging our CAD system to track and measure the effectiveness of newly acquired technology and equipment. We will use the same tracking and officer accountability measures established for OTS grants, ensuring consistency, accuracy, and reliability in reporting.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) include:
• Impaired Driver Arrests: Track the number of impaired drivers arrested. • Warrant Arrests for Impaired Drivers: Monitor the number of DUI/DUID-related warrant arrests. • Traffic Enforcement: Record the number of traffic enforcement stops and citations issued. • Community Events: Document participation in community outreach events, including social media postings and department records.

Evaluation and Reporting: Program outcomes will be monitored using DUI/DUID arrests, collision statistics, and community feedback. This data will allow the department to assess the effectiveness of operations, measure impact on impaired driving in the city, and evaluate the sustainability of enforcement efforts.

Through this ongoing, data-driven review process, the department will ensure that each enforcement detail and educational initiative produces measurable improvements in public safety and DUI enforcement.

Program Sustainability
The project’s performance evaluation will be data-driven, leveraging our CAD system and the same tracking and officer accountability measures used for OTS grants. Key metrics will include:

Number of impaired driver arrests
Warrant arrests for impaired drivers
Direct traffic enforcement citations and stops
Summaries of community events, documented in department records and posted on social media This data will allow the department to assess operational effectiveness, measure the impact on impaired drivers, and evaluate the sustainability of each enforcement detail.

The department will continue implementing the Safe System approach, which includes safe speeds, street design, safer people, safe vehicles, and post-crash care. Through ongoing community events and meetings with city leaders, these strategies will be discussed and applied to reduce impaired driving, prevent injury collisions, and enhance roadway safety.

With ongoing roadway development, increased housing, a future hospital, expanding businesses, and a growing population, the department plans a 2–3 year data analysis to evaluate program outcomes, identify successes and challenges, and guide improvements. The City of Emeryville is projected to add 5,000 residents by 2028, and as a bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly community, this growth may increase exposure risks for vulnerable road users. These performance measures and analyses will guide enforcement and education strategies to mitigate these risks and improve traffic safety for all.

Administrative Support
The Emeryville Police Department has a strong history of successfully applying for and managing grant funding from federal, state, and local agencies. The department maintains excellent support from city leadership and works closely with other city departments, including Finance, to manage, track, and report grant activities. Regular meetings with the Finance Department ensure oversight and accurate reporting.

Grant administration is staffed by personnel who manage grants as part of their regularly assigned duties, and command staff holds managers accountable for meeting all grant goals and reporting requirements.

Established systems and procedures regulate grant management, ensuring compliance and efficiency. The department is confident that existing resources and experienced staff are sufficient to successfully implement and manage this grant project.

SUBJECT: RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EMERYVILLE

AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SUBMIT AN APPLICATION TO

THE CALIFORNIA EMPLOYMENT DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT

FOR STATE DISABILITY INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR CITY

EMPLOYEES

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit an application to the State of California EDD for State Disability Insurance coverage for City employees.

BACKGROUND
On December 18, 1984, the Emeryville City Council adopted Resolution No. 84-151, authorizing the City Manager to submit an application to the California Employment Development Department (EDD) for State Disability Insurance (SDI) for SDI coverage for City employees. SDI benefits provide short-term wage replacement to people who need to take time off work due to illness or injury, pregnancy, childbirth, surgery, or alcohol or drug rehabilitation.

On July 21,1998, the Management of Emeryville Services Authority (MESA) Board of Directors authorized the submittal of an application to the EDD SDI coverage for MESA Employees. Accordingly, employees who transitioned from City to MESA employment as part of the City’s restructuring received continuous, uninterrupted SDI coverage.

As a result of these actions, all City employees except public safety employees and all MESA employees have been covered under SDI.

On December 2, 2025, the Emeryville City Council and Successor Agency to the City of Emeryville Development Agency (Successor Agency) adopted a resolution dissolving MESA. As part of the dissolution, MESA employees became employees of the City of Emeryville. In connection with this transition, EDD has requested that the City submit a new application for SDI coverage of City employees.

DISCUSSION
MESA was created as a joint powers authority (JPA) in 1998 and employed all of the City of Emeryville’s and Emeryville Redevelopment Agency’s miscellaneous staff (i.e. all City SDI Submittal
City Council Meeting | September 1, 2026

employees except sworn public safety). In 1998, the MESA Board of Directors authorized the submittal of the application for State Disability Insurance coverage. As a result, all MESA employees received SDI coverage.

In 2025, the Emeryville City Council terminated the MESA JPA and the operating agreement between MESA and the City and dissolved MESA effective December 31, 2025. City staff have been communicating with EDD to facilitate employees previously covered under MESA being merged or transferred to the City to ensure continuity of coverage. As part of the process, the City has submitted a new application electing SDI coverage for non-sworn City employees.

The rules governing SDI coverage also require that the Council, as the City’s governing body, adopt a resolution authorizing the elected SDI coverage. Accordingly, staff recommends that the Council adopt a new resolution confirming the City’s authorization and requesting continuity of coverage beginning January 1, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact to the City. SDI coverage is elective and paid for by employees through a payroll deduction.

STAFF COMMUNICATION WITH THE PUBLIC
None.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST
None.

CONCLUSION
Staff recommends Council adopt the resolution.

Section 1. Relationship of City and MESA
The Parties acknowledge that the City and MESA are separate legal entities. They shall each exercise the rights and carry out those duties provided under this MOU in a manner consistent with and to the extent authorized or required by their respective legal authority.

Section 910. Sick Leave
Payment for Unused Sick Leave
Full-time employees shall accrue sick leave at the rate of one and one-quarter (1.25) days per month in pay status.

For the purpose of this provision, "good standing" is defined as retirement, layoff, or in the case of resignation, the employee has provided at least two (2) weeks' notice prior to separation. Separation that occurs because of a disciplinary reason is not separation in good standing and therefore none of these provisions apply.

For employees hired on or after January 1, 2014, payment of sick leave will be granted to full time regular, non-probationary employees with at least ten (10) years of continuous service. Such employees shall be entitled to payment for that portion of unused sick leave earned but unused, at the time of separation, to a payment at the rate of thirty percent (30%) up to a maximum of one hundred twenty (120) days, provided the employee separates from the Employer in good standing. For the purpose of this provision, "good standing" is defined as retirement, layoff, or in the case of resignation, the employee has provided at least two (2) weeks' notice prior to separation.

Separation that occurs because of a disciplinary reason is not separation in good standing and therefore none of these provisions apply.

Upon retirement from the Employer for service or disability, a full-time employee may convert accrued but unused sick leave to additional service credit as provided in the Employer's contract with the Public Employees' Retirement System.

Employees hired before January 1, 2014, who voluntarily resign or retire from the City and provide at least two (2) weeks' notice of intent shall have the option of having their unused sick leave balance paid out.

The payment shall be calculated by multiplying the employee's eligible unused sick leave hours by 60% of the employee's hourly base rate of pay at the time of separation. The City will pay the employee the amount calculated less the applicable CalGOVEBA contributions. Refer to the CAMP CalGOVEBA Agreement.

Employees hired on or after January 1, 2014, who have completed at least ten (10) 15 City of Emeryville/MESA & CAMP MOU 20263-20286
years of continuous service and voluntarily resign or retire from the City and provide at least two (2) weeks' notice of intent shall have the option of having their unused sick leave balance paid out. Payment of unused sick leave is limited to a maximum of nine hundred sixty (960) hours for employees assigned to a 40-hour workweek or eight hundred forty (840) hours for employees assigned to a 35-hour workweek.

The payment shall be calculated by multiplying the employee's eligible unused sick leave hours by 30% of the employee's hourly base rate of pay at the time of separation.

PREAMBLE
This Memorandum of Understanding is entered into pursuant to the Meyers Milias Brown Act (California Government Code Sections 3500, et. seq.) as amended. It has been jointly prepared and is the result of meeting and conferring in good faith and represents the complete understanding between the parties as to all matters upon which the parties reached agreement.

Section 1. Recognition

The Employer shall reasonably make available conference rooms and other meeting areas for the purpose of holding Association meetings during off duty times subject to space and security considerations. The Association shall provide timely advance notice of such meetings. The Employer shall provide reasonable space on bulletin boards for official Union notices at each central work area.

Section 2. Employer's Rights
The Parties agree that the Employer has the exclusive right to determine, and revise from time to time, the Employer's organizational structure, the Employer's mission, the levels and types of services to be performed, the methods, means, number and type of personnel by which Employer services are performed; the right to subcontract or contract out work performed by bargaining unit members; to determine work rules and attendance standards, standards of duty-related employee conduct; to determine the procedures, criteria, minimum qualifications, desirable qualifications, and other standards and requirements for selection for City or Employer employment, transfer or promotion; determine and enforce employee job performance standards, to determine and revise the content of job classifications and the allocation of positions to job classifications in a manner consistent with applicable law and this Memorandum of Understanding; to hire, assign work, and direct the workforce; to evaluate employee performance; to determine the technology and equipment used in the performance of Employer services; to discipline or discharge employees subject to the terms of Section 15 of this Memorandum of Understanding; to lay employees off from work due to lack of funds or work, elimination of a position, reorganization or other lawful reasons; and the right to such steps as it deems appropriate in an emergency. The Employer's exercise of any right under this 1 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
2 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
Section is not subject to the grievance procedure, except to the extent such exercise is expressly abridged by this Memorandum of Understanding.

The Parties acknowledge that they have extensively discussed the Employer's historic exercise of the rights described above and that each made proposals for this Section with respect to the listed rights as well as others potentially affecting the scope of representation. For purposes of determining the scope of the Employer's rights the parties agree that any proposal or portion thereof that was not incorporated in the above paragraph shall be deemed a nullity and treated as though the proposal or portion thereof had not been made.

Section 3. Discrimination Prohibited
The Employer and the Association agree that they shall not discriminate in any way on account of race, creed, religion, sex, national origin, political affiliation, handicap, age, or sexual orientation. The parties agree that neither will discriminate against an employee because of their legally protected participation in Association activities or because they refrain from such activity.

Section 4. Strikes and other Concerted Activity Prohibited The Association, its members and representatives agree that it and they will not engage in or authorize any primary or sympathy strike, slowdown, stoppage of work, curtailment of production, concerted refusal of overtime work, refusal to operate designated equipment (provided such equipment is in a condition conforming with applicable state and federal safety requirements) or to perform customary duties because of any dispute arising during the term of this Memorandum of Understanding; and neither the Association nor any representative thereof shall engage in job action for the purpose of effecting changes of personnel or operations of management or of employees not covered by this Memorandum of Understanding.

3 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028

5.1 Overtime
Employees determined to be FLSA exempt are not eligible for overtime pay. In determining eligibility for overtime compensation for non-exempt employees, holidays and compensation time off used will count and other paid leaves will not count, and employees must work forty (40) hours in a FLSA workweek (thirty-five [35] hours in a designated workweek for employees permanently assigned to report for work at City Hall) to be eligible for overtime.

A. Information Technology Analyst. If, during off-duty hours, an employee in the classification of Information Technology Analyst VII, is required to perform services within the scope of their City employment duties by means of a realtime telephonic or other real-time electronic oral conversation (e.g. a Skype call via laptop or desktop computer), they shall be compensated one (1) hour of pay at the overtime rate (1.5 times regular rate of pay). If there is more than one such oral conversation during the same one-hour period, an employee is only entitled to one (1) hour of pay at the overtime rate for the multiple phone communications. If such a conversation continues into the next hour after the start time of the first conversation, a second hour of overtime will apply. To be compensated for the one (1) hour of pay at the overtime rate, the employee is required to submit documentation acceptable to the Employer including the time, date, duration, and substance of the conversation.

5.2 Special Assignment Pay
When represented employees, on a temporary basis, are assigned to special assignments, the Appointing Authority may award up to an additional 10% salary adjustment, for special assignments. Such discretionary additional compensation shall be assigned only for the regular and continuous performance of a special assignment, in addition to an employee's regular duties. It shall not be used as a merit or bonus payment. Special Assignment Pay must be approved by the Director of Human Resources and the City Manager.

5.3 Acting Pay
An employee assigned in writing by their Department Head and the City Manager, to perform all of the ordinary, day-to-day duties of a position of a higher classification for three (3) consecutive days shall be paid an additional five percent (5%) of the regular pay of their own classification, or the first step of the higher classification, whichever is greater, for such time worked in the higher classification. The City Manager has the sole discretion to appoint an employee to Acting (or Interim) Department Head, triggering this provision.

Section 6. Group Health and Welfare Benefits

6.1Medical Benefits
The Employer shall continue to contract with the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) for the purpose of providing medical benefits for eligible active employees, and their eligible dependents, eligible retired employees, and eligible survivors of retired employees.

The Employer’s contribution towards medical insurance benefits for each eligible 4 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
employee shall be the minimum contribution amount required by Government Code Section 22892. Contributions provided under this Section are required only to the extent mandated by Public Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA).

For the purpose of this section, a dependent is defined as a person who satisfies the definition of dependent in the CalPERS medical plan in which the employee is enrolled.

Eligible dependents must also be enrolled in and covered by the plan. The eligible employee, retiree, or survivor shall be responsible for making any additional contributions needed to pay for this benefit as agreed upon in this Pay and Benefits Plan.

CalPERS may change carriers and plans; the Employer shall not be required to provide a specific insurance coverage and shall only be required to provide those benefits as described in this Section so long as the Employer contracts for benefits with CalPERS for medical insurance benefits.

6.2 Section 125 Cafeteria Plan
The Employer shall provide a contribution to the flexible benefits plan (Section Cafeteria 125 plan) for each full-time active employee in regular or probationary status enrolled in one of the CalPERS medical insurance plans offered by the Employer.

The Employer Contribution. The Employer will pay 90% of the selected plan premium, which includes the minimum contribution amount required by Government Code Section 22892. Contributions provided under this Section are required only to the extent mandated by Public Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA).

Additional Employee Contributions. The employee will pay 10% of the selected plan premium which shall be withheld from the employee's salary by the Employer on a pretax basis.

6.3 Dental Benefits
The Employer shall pay the full cost of coverage for employee and eligible dependent up to the family level under the Delta Dental Plan.

If the Employer negotiates a different and greater dental benefit/program for the SEIU bargaining unit during negotiations between the Employer and SEIU underway at the time this Memorandum of Understanding is adopted by the City Council, then the City shall grant the higher benefit to the bargaining unit employees at the same time.

6.4 Vision Care
The Employer shall pay the full cost of coverage for employee and eligible dependent up to the family level under the Vision Service Plan (VSP).

6.5 Permanent Part-Time Employees
Permanent Part-Time Employees. Represented employees working less than full- time are eligible for Employer-sponsored health care benefits in accordance with the below tiers:
a) Tier I - Represented regular part-time employees who are regularly scheduled to work thirty (30) hours or more hours a week but less than full-time (35 or 40 hours, depending on assigned work schedule) will be eligible for health care benefits and flexible benefit contributions on the same basis as regular full-time 5 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
employees.
b) Tier II - Represented regular part-time employees who are regularly scheduled to work at least twenty (20) but less than thirty (30) hours per week will be eligible for the Employer-sponsored health care benefits with the Employer paying flexible benefit contributions up to a maximum of seventy-five percent (75%) of the premium charged for the plan in which the employee is enrolled, up to a maximum of seventy- five percent (75%) of the Bay Area Kaiser premium at the applicable level of plan enrollment (i.e. one party, two party, or family). The balance of the required premium will be paid by the employee by payroll deduction.

Dental Vision
Employee Only $ 57.32 $22.90
Employee + One Dependent $ 90.26 $22.90
Employee + Two or more Dependents $132.59 $22.90

6.6 Reservation of Rights
The Employer reserves the right to provide health, dental and vision care benefits under a plan or through a carrier of its choice. Alternate coverage may be provided through a consortium of public agencies or private employers which may be formed for the purpose of providing vision care benefits for employees; or through a program of self-insurance.

6.7 Life Insurance
The Employer shall pay the entire cost of providing each regular and probationary fulltime employee with group term life insurance equal to the individual's annual base salary (rounded to the next highest $1,000). This policy will include Accidental Death & Dismemberment coverage, and the right of conversion at the time of termination from employment to a form of permanent coverage without medical restrictions, to the extent allowable by the insurance carrier and the law. The payment for such converted coverage shall be the sole responsibility of the individual electing such coverage.

For Permanent Part-Time employees, the Employer shall provide group term life insurance in an amount equivalent to the employee's annualized salary, rounded to the nearest $1,000.

6.8 Flexible Spending (FSA) and Dependent Care (DCAP) Accounts The Employer agrees to allow employees to designate a specific amount of salary, consistent with applicable public law, to be redirected each month to pay for Health Care and Dependent care costs on a pre-tax basis. The Employer will reimburse such employee on a monthly basis for health care and dependent care from such redirected funds, upon presentation to the designated third-party administrator of a claim and receipt for services rendered. Any unused funds will be administered in accordance with applicable Federal law.

Federal law limits the circumstances under which an employee may elect benefits and change an election under the Flexible Benefits Plan.

A. Premium Contribution Account. Unless the individual employee notifies the Director of Human Resources in writing prior to May 30 each year, that they elect to have their Flexible Benefits paid into the Deferred Compensation Program, it will 6 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
automatically be used to pay premium changes for the elected medical insurance program.

Each employee shall be responsible for providing immediate written notification to the Head of Human Resources of any change to the number of their eligible dependents (as defined by the summary plan documents) which affects the amount of the Employer's payment to the Flexible Benefits Account. Changes to Flexible Benefit payments required because of a change in an employee's number of eligible dependents shall take effect at the start of the first pay period in the month next following the month in which advice from the employee is received by the Human Resources Department. No retroactive increases to the Employer's payment shall be allowed.

To elect to redirect funds into the Health Care and Dependent Care Spending Accounts, the individual employee must obtain and complete an election form and provide it to the Director of Human Resources in accordance with Employer's procedures, but no later than November 30 each year for the plan year beginning January 1. The prior year election will not be renewed. If the employee makes no election prior to November 30, then the employee will be deemed not to participate in the Health Care and Dependent Care Spending Accounts.

Each employee shall be responsible for providing written notification to the Director of Human Resources of any change in health care or dependent care status within 30 days of the change which affects the amount of the Employer's payment to the Flexible Benefits Account, if any. Changes to Flexible Benefit payments required because of a qualifying change in status shall take effect at the start of the first pay period in the month next following the month in which advice from the employee is received by the Director of Human Resources. No retroactive increases to the Employer's payment shall be allowed.

A qualifying change in status includes changes as permitted under the Employer Flexible Benefit Plan in accordance with IRS Regulations.

6.9 Medical In-Lieu/Alternate Benefit
Employees shall be allowed an opportunity to select certain options as alternatives to those benefits listed in Section 6.1 of this Memorandum of Understanding under the following terms.

Eligibility for receipt of alternative benefits is restricted to those employees for whom no City contribution is made towards premiums for group medical insurance because the employees have opted out and have coverage from a source other than the City. In order to receive the medical in-lieu/alternate benefit, employees must meet all of the requirements of an Eligible Opt-Out Arrangement.

The requirements that must be satisfied for the Eligible Opt-Out Arrangement are as follows:
(a) The Participant must have minimum essential coverage ("MEC") through another source (other than coverage in the individual market and other than individual coverage through Covered California);
(b) The Participant and all individuals in the Participant’s expected tax family have (or will have) the required minimum essential coverage. A Participant’s expected tax family includes all individuals for whom the Participant reasonably expects to claim a personal 7 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028
exemption deduction for the taxable year(s) that cover the Participant's plan year to which the opt-out arrangement applies;
(c) The Participant must provide reasonable evidence of the MEC for the applicable period. Reasonable evidence may include an attestation by the Participant; (d) The Participant must provide the evidence/attestation every Plan Year; (e) The Participant must provide the evidence/attestation no earlier than a reasonable time before coverage starts (e.g. open enrollment). The evidence/attestation may also be provided within a reasonable time after the Plan Year starts; and (f) The medical in-lieu/alternate benefit cannot be made (and the City must not in fact make payment) if the City knows or has reason to know that the Participant or tax family member does not have the alternative coverage.

The City shall contribute ninety percent (90%) of the Kaiser - Region 1, single party premium per month for alternate benefits for eligible full-time employees who select and are eligible for the medical-in-lieu/alternate benefits.

The medical-in-lieu/alternate benefit is provided to the employee as a cash payment that supplements to the employee's monthly compensation. State and Federal taxes will be withheld on any monies applied to this option.

6.10 Health Care Legislation
In the event that either the State of California or the federal government produces legislation which requires a change in the benefits provided under this Plan, or imposes an employee or an Employer contribution requirement toward the cost of such benefits, the Employer shall have the right to adjust its contributions so that its total contribution is no greater than is required under this Plan and shall have a duty to provide any benefits lost through such legislation through a supplemental health plan. In the event that the cost of such additional benefits exceeds the total Employer contribution required by this Plan, employees will be informed of alternative plan design which conforms with the legislation and any necessary adjustments in contribution levels for both the Employer and the employees covered hereunder.

6.11 Retired Employees - Health Benefits
The Employer shall contribute the minimum employer health premium contribution required under the Public Employees' Medical and Hospital Care Act (PEMHCA) toward CalPERS medical insurance premium. Employees hired prior to July 1, 2002, or employees with eleven (11) or more years of continuous service, are eligible for the following retiree health benefits:

Coverage Level Medical* Dental Vision
Retiree $162.00 $20.00 $5.00
Retiree + One Dependent $286.00 $35.00 $8.68
Retiree + Two or more Dependents $363.00 $46.06 $8.68

The Employer's medical contribution shall be paid directly to CalPERS.

The Employer's dental and vision contributions shall be applied toward the applicable monthly premiums. The retiree shall be responsible for paying any remaining premium amount directly to the Employer.

To be eligible for the Employer's retiree health benefits described in this section, an employee must be currently enrolled in an Employer-sponsored medical (CalPERS), dental, and/or vision plan at the time of retirement. An employee who is not enrolled in an applicable plan upon retirement shall not be eligible to receive the Employer's corresponding medical, dental, or vision contribution for that plan at a later date, except as otherwise required by law.

6.14 Participation in the California Government Voluntary Employee Benefit Association (CalGOVEBA)
All bargaining unit members will participate in the ("VEBA") 501(C)9 Trust pursuant to the agreement provided by CAMP and may be amended from time to time pursuant to the requirements of such agreement. Participation will be subject to and governed by all IRS requirements applicable to the VEBA and employees will be subject to the provisions of such agreement as may be revised.

6.15 Medical Insurance Premium contributions
If the Employer negotiates a higher Employer contribution toward medical insurance premiums for the SEIU bargaining unit during negotiations between the Employer and SEIU underway at the time this Memorandum of Understanding is adopted by the City Council, the higher contribution shall be granted to members of this bargaining unit at the same time. For example, if the Employer and SEIU agreed to increase the Employer's share of premium increases from 80% to 81% of the premium increase effective July 1, 2019, the Employer would increase its contribution for this bargaining unit by 1% also effective July 1, 2019. If the Employer added $40 to its 80% contribution increase on a one time or on-going basis on January 1, 2020, the Employer would match that additional increase for the same duration and on the same date for members of this bargaining unit.

Section 7. Pension
A. Except as provided in section B of this section, the Employer ·will contract with the California Public Employee Retirement System ("PERS") for the 2% at Age 55 pension benefit formula for eligible employees covered by this Memorandum of 9 City of Emeryville & CAMP MOU 2026-2028

D. Contributions made by the Employer toward the PERS employee contribution, for services rendered before January 1, 2012, shall be reported to PERS as "employee contributions being made by the contracting agency." Said contributions shall not apply in the case of temporary or provisional employees.

E. The aforesaid Employer contributions toward the PERS employee contribution made for services rendered before January 1, 2012 shall not be considered as a part of an employee's salary for the purpose of computing straight-time earnings, compensation for overtime worked, education incentive pay, or the Employer's or employee's contribution to PERS; nor shall such contribution be taken into account in determining the level of any other benefit which is a function of or percentage of salary.

F. Employer contributions made directly toward the PERS employee contribution for services rendered before January 1, 2012, and employee contributions toward the PERS employee contribution for services rendered on or after January 1,2012 shall be made on a pre-tax basis to the extent permitted under Internal Revenue Code Section 414(h). The Employer will not treat Employer contributions toward the PERS employee contribution as compensation subject to income tax withholding unless required to do so by applicable local, state or federal law. Each employee shall be solely and personally responsible for any Federal, State or local tax liability of the employee that may arise out of the implementation of this section or any penalty that may be imposed, therefore.

G.
