STAFF REPORT (ID # 4570) DOC ID: 4570

MICROSOFT ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT - Authorize the City Manager, or Designee, to Enter Into a Three-Year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement with Dell Marketing, L.P., in an Amount of $2,694,929.49, Payable in Annual Payments, and to Execute Any Implementing Documents and Take Any Implementing Actions as Necessary

Executive Summary: The City entered into a three-year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (EA) in 2019, which expires on April 30, 2022. The Microsoft EA is an annual program that covers the licensing and automatic updates and upgrades of Microsoft products including Microsoft Office 365 (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher, OneDrive, Teams, and SharePoint), Exchange/Outlook e-mail, Windows operating system, Windows Datacenter, and Bing Maps (for GIS). The new EA will allow the City to continue to use the Microsoft software products and will continue to provide access to Advanced Threat Protection, Power BI reporting and analytical tool, Dynamics 365 to create and provide application solutions , and Microsoft Azure for secure cloud storage. Database licensing (SQL Server Enterprise) and Windows licensing (Windows Server), is included in the new Microsoft EA. SQL Enterprise provides unlimited SQL Virtual Machines (VMs) on a host when all cores are licensed in a host and paired with Windows Datacenter.

The City solicited competitive bids for the Microsoft Enterprise Agreement renewal and received multiple bids. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager, or designee, to (1) enter into a three-year Microsoft Enterprise Agreement with Dell Marketing L.P., in the amount of $2,694,929.49, payable in annual payments of $898,309.83 for Years One through Three; and (2) execute any implementing documents and take any implementing actions as necessary.

BACKGROUND: One of the Information Technology Services (ITS) Department’s priorities is to continue to provide productivity tools required for all City departments to efficiently deliver their services and for employees to perform their daily work activities. These systems include e-mail, calendar, office productivity software, online document management, and collaboration tools. The ITS Department also has an objective to deliver software solutions to City departments using a standard programming platform and reporting and analytical tools.

The ITS Department has migrated City users to the Microsoft Exchange/Outlook cloud-based e-mail system, the most current Windows 10 operating system, and the Office 365 cloud - based productivity suite. The City also uses Azure services to store critical data for storage and retrieval. In addition, the City uses data analytics tools such as Power BI for reporting and Dynamics 365 to create and provide application solutions

Staff Report (ID # 4570) Meeting of April 12, 2022
Updated: 4/6/2022 5:54 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 2

The County of Riverside negotiated a Master Microsoft Enterprise Agreement through a competitive bidding process. The Master Agreement has been used by more than 900 organizations in the State of California and is the basis for the State of California Department of General Services enterprise program. As a result, the City is able to reduce the cost of the EA by combining the volume of the City’s licenses with other agencies to achieve the lowest possible cost.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The City has standardized on Microsoft products for its desktop and server operating systems and Office products including e-mail and calendaring for over twelve years. These applications are the primary productivity tools used by City employees for managing day-to-day business functions and communication. Microsoft products are the most predominant products used by cities and companies. There are limited options for other e-mail and office productivity tools, and significant staff time has been invested in learning and maximizing the tools available through the Microsoft Office suite. Transitioning to other tools would require substantial resources and training impacting employees’ efficiency and productivity.

The Microsoft EA includes Power BI reporting capabilities along with the latest versions of Office 365, e-mail and calendaring, file storage/sharing (OneDrive), collaboration tools (Teams) and encryption tools, and Microsoft Azure cloud services are also licensed under the EA.

Microsoft Enterprise Agreement (EA): While evaluating the renewal of the EA, it was important to continue to review the requirements of the City with regard to savings, flexibility to respond to rapidly changing technology, and streamlined license management.

The EA continues to allow the deployment of a common IT platform across the City and allows the mix of Microsoft cloud services and on-premise software by subscribing to the needed software and services at a set price for the term of the agreement. The EA includes Software Assurance (SA) benefits that allow the City to continue to receive the latest software versions without paying additional fees during the three-year period, 24x7 support incidents, training, and deployment assistance services for specific products.

There is simplified licensing management through the annual EA True-Up process that provides a flexible and effective way to account for any change in licensed products over the course of each year and ensures that the software licensing is current, legal and consistent.

The City solicited competitive bids for the Microsoft Enterprise Agreement renewal and received 3 bids on March 29, 2022 as follows:

Supplier Total Bid
Dell Marketing, L.P. $2,694,929.49
Crayon Software Experts LLC $2,698,214.76
Zones, LLC $2,726,862.55

Staff is proposing to enter into a new Microsoft Enterprise Agreement with the lowest responsible bidder, Dell Marketing, L.P. The EA is composed of licenses for Windows Server operating systems, Exchange server (for a hybrid cloud and on-premise architecture), Microsoft 365 user licenses (1250 user licenses for Microsoft365, eDiscovery and Defender),

2.C
Packet Pg. 10
Staff Report (ID # 4570) Meeting of April 12, 2022
Updated: 4/6/2022 5:54 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 3
Azure cloud storage, Dynamics 365 user licenses (100 user licenses to support applications such as a citizen relationship management (CRM) system), Bing Maps (for GIS mapping) , SQL Server Enterprise core licenses and Windows Server core licenses.

FISCAL IMPACT: The total for the three-year Enterprise Agreement is $2,694,929.49, payable annually in the amount of $898,309.83 for Years One through Three. There is no sales tax on the licenses because the City receives the software license keys in an electronic format.

The actual licenses for the Microsoft software products and costs for Microsoft Azure cloud services will fluctuate based upon the City’s needs over the three-year term of the Microsoft EA. Staff estimates that there will be incremental increases for the procurement of licenses as a result of new employees, growth and demand for Dynamics 365 and for Microsoft Azure services for data storage in the cloud. In addition to the payments for the EA, the City can also expect to pay approximately $100,000 each year to maintain software license compliance and for Microsoft Azure cloud services. Those costs will be included in each year’s proposed operating budget.

There are sufficient funds for the annual software license costs and Microsoft Azure cloud services appropriated for FY 2021/22 in the ITS Operating Fund (Fund 620). Funding for the second year of annual software license costs and Microsoft Azure cloud services is included in the proposed FY 2022/23 budget. Funding for year three of annual software license costs and Microsoft Azure cloud services will be requested as part of the City’s annual budget process.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The proposed action is exempt from and not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because, without limitation, it is not a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5) and/or Section 15378(b)(5) and as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment per CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), each as a separate and independent basis for CEQA compliance.

ATTACHMENTS: None.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to enter into a Microsoft Enterprise Agreement with Dell Marketing L.P., in the amount of $2,694,929.49, payable in annual payments of $898,309.83 for Year 1 through Year 3.

2. Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute any implementing documents and take any implementing actions as necessary.

STAFF REPORT (ID # 4583) DOC ID: 4583
Updated: 4/6/2022 5:58 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 1
ADDITIONAL CONTRIBUTION TO RETIREE HEALTHCARE TRUST – Appropriate an Additional Contribution to the CERBT to Reduce the City’s Unfunded Liability for Retiree Healthcare
Contact Persons:

Name: David Persselin
Title: Finance Director
Div/Dept: Finance Department
Phone: 510-494-4631
E-Mail: [email protected]

Executive Summary: The FY 2021/22 Mid-Year Budget Report projected that a combination of higher than anticipated revenues and lower than anticipated expenditures would result in an ending unreserved fund balance of $38.8 million in the General Fund.

The purpose of this staff report is to recommend that the City Council act to convert a portion of this one-time budgetary surplus into ongoing expenditure savings that can be used to support ongoing services in the community by appropriating an additional payment into the City’s retiree healthcare trust.

The recommended additional payment of $10 million will reduce the City’s unfunded liability for retiree healthcare and is estimated to create ongoing annual expenditure savings of approximately $1 million through June 30, 2037.

BACKGROUND: The City provides medical benefits to retirees. To be eligible, the retiree must have retired directly from the City, attained a minimum age of 50, and ha ve earned at least 5 years of CalPERS service or a disability retirement. The benefit consists of all or part of the premium payments for medical insurance, and the reimbursement amounts, which vary by hire date and retirement date, are established by memoranda of understanding (MOU) with the various City bargaining units. The benefit is paid monthly to the retiree, subject to proof of coverage and attestation of premium payment, and generally ceases upon the death of the retiree.

Until FY 2015/16, the City paid its OPEB expenses as they came due (the monthly reimbursements to retirees) rather than as they were earned, resulting in the accumulation of an unfunded liability for the future benefits. In May 2015 the City Council directed staff to begin prefunding OPEB benefits through annual contributions to the California Employers’ Retiree Benefit Trust (CERBT) managed by CalPERS.

The CERBT is an IRS Section 115 trust - set up for the purpose of receiving employer contributions that will prefund OPEB costs for retirees and their beneficiaries. The assets held in the CERBT are co-invested and managed by the same CalPERS investment staff that manage the City’s pension assets. As with our pension funds, our OPEB assets are accounted for in a separate City account.

2.D
Packet Pg. 12
Staff Report (ID # 4583) Meeting of April 12, 2022
Updated: 4/6/2022 5:58 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 2
Contributing to the CERBT allows the City to make long-term investments to match its long- term obligation to provide health benefits to retirees. Because professionally managed long - term investments can be expected to earn a higher rate of return than the short-term investments held by the City’s cash pool, our participation in the CERBT is resulting in a lower total cost to the City for providing retiree healthcare benefits.

Every two years the City’s OPEB actuary prepares a valuation report which identifies the remaining unfunded liability and determines the annual OPEB contributions for the next two years. The unfunded liability is paid down in equal annual installments over a period ending on June 30, 2037. The actuarially determined contribution (ADC) for each year is the amount necessary to both pay the City’s ongoing benefit costs and pay down the unfunded liability. The ADC for next fiscal year will be approximately $9.9 million. The next actuarial valuation report will be based on the City’s accumulated retiree healthcare liability and the value of assets held in the CERBT as of June 30, 2022 and will determine our OPEB contributions for fiscal years 2023/24 and 2024/25.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: On March 8, 2022 the City Council received the FY 2021/22 Mid-Year Budget Report which projected that a combination of higher than anticipated revenues and lower than anticipated expenditures would result in an ending unreserved fund balance of $38.8 million in the General Fund. Having previously acted to res tore and increase the Budget Uncertainty Reserve, the City Council directed staff to move $21.8 million of those one-time funds to the Capital Improvements Fund, where they will be available to support capital projects identified in the City’s capital improvement plan.

The remaining projected ending fund balance presents an opportunity for the City to convert a one-time budgetary surplus into ongoing expenditure savings that can be used to support ongoing services to the community. Using a portion of these one-time funds to make an additional payment into the City’s retiree healthcare trust will reduce the unfunded liability and result in lower annual OPEB contributions. As an example, if the City were to make an additional contribution by the next actuarial valuation date of June 30, 2022, the City’s actuary has estimated that the ADC for FY 2023/24 and each subsequent year would be reduced by approximately $100,000 for every $1 million contributed.

Because we still face significant revenue uncertainty and are just beginning contract negotiations with our labor units, and because there are specific capital projects addressing Council priorities that may be included in the proposed operating budget for next year, staff does not recommend using the entire remaining projected ending fund balance to make an additional OPEB contribution.

Instead, staff recommends that the City Council approve an additional contribution of $ 10 million to be made during the current fiscal year so that the reduced annual expenditur es of $1 million can be realized starting in FY 2023/24. The additional contribution will be offset by increases in General Fund revenue estimates, totaling $5 million, and a $5 million increase in the Citywide savings estimate. Based on the amounts presented in the FY 2021/22 Mid-Year Budget Report, approximately $7 million will remain as projected ending unreserved fund balance.

FISCAL IMPACT: Adoption of staff’s recommendation will result in an estimated ongoing annual reduction of $1 million in OPEB contributions through June 30, 2037. If approved, that reduction will create additional operating budget capacity beginning in FY 2023/24 that

will be reflected in the General Fund forecast presented as part of the FY 2022/23 proposed operating budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The proposed pension liability funding policy is not a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines Section 15378, definition of a project.

ATTACHMENTS: None.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Increase revenue estimates, totaling $5 million, in the General Fund as follows:
a. Property Tax - $1 million
b. Business Tax - $1 million
c. Transient Occupancy Tax - $0.5 million
d. Property Transfer Tax - $0.5 million
e. Charges for Services - $1 million
f. Fines - $1 million

2. Increase the Citywide expenditure savings estimate in the General Fund by $5 million.

3. Appropriate $10,000,000 in the General Fund as an additional contribution to the CERBT to reduce the City’s unfunded liability for retiree healthcare.

Executive Summary: On February 25, 2022 a City Council Retreat was held at the Downtown Event Center in Fremont. The purpose of the retreat was to: 1) establish Council priorities for 2022, 2) create consensus on roles and norms for both Councilmembers and executive staff, and 3) maintain a strong dynamic of Council-staff teamwork.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: Councilmembers and staff discussed many priorities determined through pre-retreat interviews that will continue to be addressed by staff. Of those discussed, Council distinguished three top priorities for staff to focus on through a dot voting exercise. The top priorities identified were: 1) Continue to innovate and find solutions to address and respond to homelessness in Fremont, 2) Enhance public safety, and 3) Increase the vitality of commercial corridors. Additionally, Council established a foundational principal of ensuring the financial heath and sustainability for the City of Fremont. The Council’s priorities will be incorporated into the upcoming budget process and staff work plan. Below is a matrix directly linking the Council’s top three priorities to a sample of work currently being completed by City Staff:

Top Priorities Sample of Activities Already in Progress Continue to innovate and address
homelessness
• Establishment of Safe Parking rotational
program.
• Continue to explore opportunities to expand
programs including safe parking, additional
abatement in severely impacted areas, and the
MET Unit.
• Applied for state Project Homekey funding and

community through encouragement of
community assistance and reviving the Patrol
Problem Solving Initiatives.
• Continue to work with the Alameda County Fire
Chiefs and County EMS to address emergency
medical transportation issues.

Increase vitality of commercial
corridors

programs, and business development
resources.
• Partnering with a nonprofit that specializes in
community engagement and placemaking on
an activation project.
• Exploring the creation of a Business
Improvement District for Downtown Fremont.
• Implementing a permanent Pop-Up Patio
program for outdoor dining.

Ensure financial health and
sustainability
• Projecting continued, but diminishing, use of
fiscal recovery funds in FY 2022/23 and FY
2023/24 as revenues recover to maintain pre-
COVID-19 service levels.
• Negotiate successor MOUs expiring 7/1/2022
within Council’s budget parameters.
• Continue to promote reinvestment in
community of existing Fremont companies and
support new business additions to Fremont’s
economy.

Additionally, there was a conversation about Council Norms and Protocols at the annual retreat. Norms are the overarching guiding principles that guide the Council’s work together, while protocols pertain to procedures concerning specific issues. Specifically, the Council discussed the norms and protocols related to the issuance of proclamations and resolutions, sharing of Council attended committees at City Council meetings, and efficiently conducting discussions at Council meetings. Upon approval of the City Council Retreat Report, the Council Handbook will be updated with any necessary changes to reflect the norms and protocols agreed upon at the 2022 Retreat.

4 Welcome and Opening Comments
The workshop began with a welcome from Mayor Lily Mei.

City Manager Karena Shackelford then offered some opening comments about why the retreat was important. She explained that clear direction from the Council on priorities is needed because of the City’s limited resources. Karena noted that resources are constrained more than ever right now, so City leaders need to be mindful of capacity. She emphasized that a good working relationship between Council and staff is critical to the City’s success at achieving good results.

Following these comments, Jan Perkins reviewed the retreat objectives, agenda, ground rules, and the purpose of the bike rack, which is a time management tool. Jan explained that items that were brought up but would not receive immediate attention would be added to the bike rack.

2.E.a

Retreat Report Management Partners

5 Bike Rack Items. The following items were added to the bike rack during the workshop:
▪ City Attorney will provide refresher training to the Council on parliamentary procedures.
▪ Councilmembers who become aware of events that other members of Council may be interested in should let the City Manager’s Office know for distribution to the entire Council.
▪ Revise the language pertaining to the section on the agenda for Council comments to delete “events”. (City Attorney will report back.) Icebreaker
The facilitators began the retreat with a short icebreaker exercise pertaining to each person’s first paid job.

Roles, Protocols and Norms
Exceptional City Councils
Following the icebreaker exercise, the Council and executive staff reviewed roles of City leaders, discussed several protocol issues, and confirmed Council’s adopted norms and protocols.

Jan presented a refresher on best governance practices to set a framework for discussing Fremont’s governance norms. Jan noted that the Institute for Local Government (ILG) says that effective Councils share a unity of purpose; understand roles and responsibilities; foster a positive governance culture; and establish norms, protocols, and procedures. The group then reflected on the ILG article, “Attributes of Exceptional Councils” and the six attributes of such councils.

Councilmembers noted that what resonated most from the six points were:
▪ Having a sense of team is most critical (cited by multiple Councilmembers)
▪ Being on the same page
▪ Getting things done
Exceptional City Councils….

1. Have a sense of team – a partnership with the city manager to govern and manage the city

2. Clear roles and responsibilities that are understood and adhered

3. Honor the relationship with staff and each other

4. Routinely conduct effective meetings

5. Hold themselves and the city accountable

6. Have members who practice continuous improvement

2.E.a

Retreat Report Management Partners

6 ▪ There is no “I” in team; we provide better service delivery with teamwork
▪ Reputation is enhanced by good teamwork and governance; both are needed to retain and recruit (both staff and business)
▪ Good governance and teamwork are needed for us to fulfill promises to voters and represent residents
▪ Public perception is affected by our behaviors in Council meetings ▪ Attraction of staff to our organization is influenced by the Council ▪ We need to be mindful of how we support staff and respect their presentations to Council
▪ We need to move forward as a united body once a decision is made ▪ Transparency and open communication are important
▪ We need to show respect and make sure everybody is heard ▪ Campaigning versus conducting the business of Council (which is a current norm) is important; we need to move forward after campaigns and work as team
▪ Trust is enhanced by good teamwork
▪ Teamwork and collaboration resonate most
Roles and Teamwork
The group reviewed the roles of the Mayor, City Council, City Manager, and City Attorney. Jan presented slides that highlighted the roles and responsibilities of each leadership position.
▪ Added to the list of Mayor’s roles. Councilmembers commented that the Mayor’s responsibilities include approving proclamations and providing clarity on how Council meetings are run. In addition, Council needs to recognize the authority of the Mayor as the chairperson. ▪ Add to the list of roles regarding Councilmembers. Councilmembers can share making motions so that everyone on Council has an opportunity to offer a motion. Councilmembers need to communicate with each other within the limits of the Brown Act. Maintaining closed-session confidentiality is also important and should be added to the list. ▪ Added to the list of City Attorney roles. The City Attorney serves as parliamentarian.

After the refresher on roles and responsibilities, other comments included the importance of teamwork and working together, assuming good intent, not apologizing on behalf of staff, and not criticizing each other, especially in public situations.

Five Council Protocol Issues
Following the discussion of roles and responsibilities, Jan presented five protocol issues that were raised during interviews with Councilmembers. A summary of each issue and associated comments is provided in Table 1 below.

Packet Pg. 26
Attachment: Fremont Council Workshop Report 2022 (4579 : February 2022 City Council Retreat) City Council Retreat
Retreat Report Management Partners

7 Table 1. Protocol Issues for Discussion
Protocol Issue Summary of Comments

1. Asking questions of staff in
advance of Council meetings
even if the questions will be
asked at the meeting
▪ Councilmembers should read the material and ask their questions in advance of the meetings. This helps the meetings to be efficient and allows staff to be prepared to answer, even if some questions will be asked in the meeting for the public’s benefit.
▪ If Councilmembers have particular issues they think are not being addressed in staff reports on a regular basis, they should discuss that with the City Manager.

2. Understanding that each
district affects the entire
community and that
governing is a citywide
responsibility
▪ This was acknowledged as fundamental.
▪ It was noted that it may be helpful at times for Councilmembers to let each other know if they will be attending an event in another Councilmember’s district.

3. Sharing information about
committees that
Councilmembers are serving
on and purpose of Council
comment section at end of
meeting
▪ Under Council comments, we should allow for two- to three-minute reports, and it is ok to pass if there isn’t an update. ▪ The purpose of sharing this information is to report on committee business conducted on behalf of the city, not on other items. ▪ Council agreed to refrain from reporting on events attended and to modify the language regarding this section on the agenda to remove “events.”
▪ Councilmembers can share information about events with the City Manager and she will report on them, as needed, in her section of the Council meetings.
▪ The City Attorney will report back on changing the language in this section of the handbook to delete the word “events.”

4. Ways to help our meetings be
most efficient, the role of
Mayor in recognizing
Councilmembers to speak,
and that it is not necessary
for Councilmembers to speak
on every issue
▪ The Council should first address questions they have on agenda items; then go to their comments on the agenda item, and not mix them (questions and comments).
▪ All agreed to begin using the virtual hand on Zoom so the Mayor can more easily see who wishes to be recognized,
• Have a backup plan if technology fails (i.e., Councilmembers can text the City Manager to let her know that s/he has a computer problem).
• City Clerk could test the “raised hands” at the start of or before the Council meeting.
▪ No one should speak out unless recognized by the Mayor as the meeting chair.
▪ Standards of conduct apply to all members of Council. ▪ If any member of Council has a concern about a colleague, contact that person outside the Council meeting to discuss the concern; do not raise it in the Council meeting; work on Council unity.
▪ Consistent Zoom backgrounds are suggested; City Attorney is preparing protocols.

5. Clarifying the procedure
regarding proclamations
▪ The process as it now stands was determined by a majority of the Council to be one that should continue, although with some possible minor clarifications of the policy and practice.
▪ An example of clarification is creating a calendar of annual recognitions and proclamations.
▪ Other comments included:

2.E.a
Packet Pg. 27

Retreat Report Management Partners

8 • Some Councilmembers would like to understand the notification process.
• Need clarification about the tracking process.
• Interest in streamlining to avoid multiple proclamations for the same holiday or event.
• Look at practices of other cities for examples.
• Staff time can be significant.

Norms and Protocols
Norms are the overarching guiding principles for the Council’s work together.

Protocols pertain to procedures concerning specific issues. The Council’s Norms and Protocols are listed in Attachment A. No changes were made.

Setting the Context for Discussion of Priorities
Following a lunch break (during which the department heads joined the retreat) the group reconvened to begin the priority setting portion of the day. At the start of this segment, the City Manager reviewed key accomplishments over the past year and challenges to be addressed.

Key Accomplishments and Challenges
As the City Manager provided an overview of the accomplishments, she noted that the hybrid telework model that will launch on March 7 is another important one. The accomplishments and challenges slides are shown below.

9 Financial Outlook and Employee Considerations
Finance Director Dave Persselin reviewed the City’s financial outlook. He noted that the overall short-term outlook looks positive, while the long-term outlook looks challenging. The City has significant capital improvement needs, as shown in Attachment B.

Human Resources Director Allen DeMers provided information about staffing levels and employee vacancy rates (see Attachment B). He explained that it is challenging to recruit and retain. He noted that while vacancy rates in the Police Department and throughout the City are higher than usual, they are average among peer cities.

11 Progress on 2020 Priorities
The City Manager provided information about progress on the top four Council priorities that were set in January 2021, which were financial health, homelessness, response to Covid, and neighborhood improvement (with a focus on the commercial cores).

One of the items, homelessness, was discussed further, with the City Manager requesting Council consensus on an augmented direction. A recap of the discussion follows.

Homelessness. The City Manager engaged the Council in a discussion about the City’s current direction and response to homelessness. She noted that over the last few years the City taken a relatively hands-off approach as pertains to enforcement, but that the community is now asking for more enforcement (both in residential and commercial areas). She said that services to the homeless will continue to be delivered but that she is seeking direction regarding enforcement. Councilmembers concurred that they support enforcement, in addition to providing services.

The City Manager posed the following question to Council:

How do we focus our resources to address the complaints from residents and businesses while maintaining our compassionate stance? ▪ Enforcement: What? How much?
▪ Tracking impacts and costs: It may be more than we think.

Councilmember comments included.
▪ Various legal questions will need to be addressed as the City moves more into enforcement.
▪ We will need public education about what legal options are available to the City (use website, town halls, new messaging).
▪ We need to understand the impacts of homelessness, long-term problems, and root causes.
▪ Alameda County Home Together Plan is part of the solution.

The City Manager said that utilizing the tools available, staff will come back to Council with specific strategies for consideration.

12 Discussion of Priorities for the Coming Year
The Council discussed 10 categories of priorities that were compiled from interviews with them in preparation for the retreat. Participants referenced a priorities worksheet, which can be found in Attachment C. The priority areas are shown below.

A. Budget, financial health, increase the tax base
B. Continue to address homelessness
C. Continue City response to COVID-19
D. Vitality of commercial corridors
E. Public safety
F. Traffic
G. Affordable housing
H. Prepare for wildfires
I. Environmental sustainability
J. General Plan Update
Top Council Priorities
Foundational Principle: Ensure the financial
health and sustainability of the City of
Fremont.

After discussing each of the priority areas,
Councilmembers agreed to establish as a
foundational principle the first item on the list
pertaining to budget, financial health, and
increasing the tax base. All Councilmembers
agreed they should not be voting on that (as
opposed to other items) because without
financial health, they cannot do the other
things.

Three Priorities
Then the Council voted on their top priorities. Each member of Council was given three dot stickers. The result of the voting was that three of the ten priorities received five or more votes. The top three priorities of the Council, as determined by dot voting, are shown in Table 2 below.

13 Clarification about the public safety priority was requested by the City Manager.

Councilmember comments included the following.
▪ Includes activities that lead to crime prevention
▪ Should incorporate mental health strategies
▪ Partnerships (Police Department, Fire Department, other agencies and departments)
▪ Providing public safety staff with the tools they need for responsiveness, efficiency
▪ Filling positions
▪ Police visibility in City, particularly related to businesses ▪ Hold town halls to help educate the community on homelessness

Staying on Course with Priorities
After the priorities were established, there was a discussion about what would help the Council/staff team stay on track, given the limited staff and financial resources. The Council Referral Process was briefly reviewed and it was noted that there have not been a significant number of referrals. Councilmembers will discuss their possible referrals with the City Manager in advance to hear about feasibility, impact and other options.

14 Wrap Up
Reflections from Council and Staff

▪ It was a pleasure coming back in person this year. Today was valuable. ▪ This reminded me that we are a team. There are so many unsung heroes responsible for the success of the City. I appreciate the retreat.

Priorities Worksheet for Discussion
City Council Retreat – February 25, 2022

Introduction: This document contains information to assist the Council and staff in discussions to be held in the Council Retreat to be held February 25, 2022.

Priority Setting Objective: The objective of the discussions about priorities will be for the Council to establish three or four top priorities for focused attention during FY 2022-23. In the January 2021 retreat, the Council identified four priorities. In the January 2020 retreat, the Council established three. After the retreat, City staff will implement work plans to carry out the priorities.

Factors to Consider: By way of context for setting priorities, there are several basic factors to consider:
• Is it financially feasible and sustainable?
• Is there sufficient staff capacity to successfully implement and sustain it? • How does it relate to the City’s core services and how does it impact those?

Information in This Document:
• Table 1: List of the four Council priorities established January 2021, along with information from City staff on the status of each priority. • Table 2: Priority categories for discussion for FY 2022-23, based on Council interviews conducted November 2021. This contains information about work underway and planned for FY 2022-23, based on Council direction. • Table 3: Other major plans and projects underway per prior Council direction

years during the pandemic. s Fremont’s population grows, so increases the proportionate need for parks, their maintenance, and their equitable access.

The Master Plan will include a parks maintenance management plan, planning for future programming, and planning for new parks and current park refurbishment. Additionally, the Master Plan includes financial planning, and has revealed that creative financing will be a cornerstone of the continued support for well-loved parks, services, community centers, and programs.

C. Fiber Master Plan In early 2021, the City partnered with a broadband engineering and consultant to assist in the development of a Fiber Master lan. ow the City’s current assets and infrastructure can be used to create a city-wide fiber optic ring to better connect city assets and the Fremont community were identified through City departments interviews, a market assessment, and a community survey.

The assessment was translated into a high-level network design for a robust municipal fiber network to connect all city facilities, support smart city initiatives, and provide critical infrastructure for innovative economic development.

The project will require a significant installation of new fiber and equipment to complete the municipal ring, which is estimated to cost approximately $11 million dollars. Staff are pursuing federal grant opportunities and evaluating the potential for public-private partnership agreements. It is anticipated the Fiber Master Plan will be presented to City Council in March 2022.

STAFF REPORT (ID # 4550) DOC ID: 4550
Updated: 4/6/2022 6:09 PM by Susan Gauthier Page 1
PURCHASE OF A WATER TENDER - Approve and Authorize City Manager to Execute a Cooperative Purchase with HGAC Buy and Authorize Purchase of a Tactical Water Tender; Appropriate Additional Funds
Contact Persons:

Name: Corina Campbell Curtis Jacobson
Title: Business Manager Fire Chief
Div/Dept: Fire Department Fire Department
Phone: 510-494-4200 510-494-4200
E-Mail: [email protected] [email protected]

Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to authorize the City Manager or designee to execute a purchase order with Golden State Fire Apparatus (GSFA) using the Houston Galveston Area Council (HGAC) Buy Program to purchase a Tactical Water Tender for a total amount not to exceed $440,871. Council is also requested to recognize $325,000 of net proceeds from the sale of the City’s previous water tender and appropriate that amount to the purchase of the new water tender.

BACKGROUND: The Fire Department water tender, purchased in 2013, is a piece of apparatus used to fight wildland fires in both mutual aid deployments and the City of Fremont. In October 2020, the City Council authorized the sale of the water tender through Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus LLC. The water tender and the associated equipment were sold in December 2021 to Oak Creek Fire of Colorado for $341,250. The agreement with Brindlee Mountain requires a 5% fee of $16,250, leaving $325,000 of net proceeds available in the Fire Capital Replacement Fund (Fund 615). Staff is recommending that the City Council appropriate the $325,000 of net proceeds to the purchase of the new water tender.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: The Fire Department has historically used cooperative agreements to get the best prices on apparatus. Pursuant to the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, Section 3.20.310(b), the City is authorized to “piggyback” and enter into a contract to buy equipment or services based on the terms of an existing contract between the contractor and another public agency without competitive bidding so long as the terms of purchase are materially the same as those in the existing contract and the contract resulted from procurement methods similar to those required by the Purchasing Code.

The City has the opportunity to realize cost savings by purchasing apparatus that has been competitively bid through the HGAC Buy cooperative purchasing program. HGAC Buy, a public agency as defined in the City’s Purchasing Ordinance, is a national cooperative procurement organization offering publicly solicited contracts to government entities nationwide. The contracts are created through a public solicitation and awarded by the Lead Public Agency, which is a procurement method similar to that required by the City of Fremont Purchasing Code. The price quote of $440,871 provided by GSFA to the City is based on the price in its agreement with HGAC Buy.

In addition to the savings the City will obtain through cooperative purchasing, GSFA offers a 10% pre-payment discount of $6,841.75. This discount is a feature the City has taken

advantage of with past GSFA purchases, and it has been applied to the quote. The sales/use tax for the purchase of the equipment will be paid directly by the City to the State of California through a direct use tax payment upon delivery of the apparatus. This direct payment will benefit the City because the total amount of the City’s share of the sales tax will be allocated back to the City, rather than being shared with all Alameda County cities through the countywide sales tax pool.

Council action at this time will additionally save the City approximately $30,000 as GSFA has notified City staff that it will be implementing a 7.00% product price increase effective May 1, 2022. This increase is driven by cost escalation that they are experiencing on components and the increasing cost of labor. Timing on this purchase is also favorable to the City because GSFA has been able to secure the chassis needed to build the water tender much quicker than normal. Therefore, the new water tender is anticipated to be built by this year’s wildfire season.

FISCAL IMPACT: The FY 2021/22 budget for the Fire Capital Replacement Fund, with the recommended appropriation of the $325,000 proceeds from the sale of the 2013 water tender, is sufficient to cover the $440,871 cost of the new water tender.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The actions recommended in this report are not projects subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guideline section 15378(b)(2) as they are administrative activities of government.

ATTACHMENTS:
• Fremont BME Tender Proposal Package - 22 March 2022

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. Increase the revenue estimate in the Fire Capital Replacement Fund by $325,000 and appropriate that amount for the purchase of a water tender.

2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to issue a purchase order to Golden State Fire Apparatus to purchase a Tactical Water Tender, in an amount not to exceed $440,871, using the HGAC Buy Program cooperative agreement.

2 DETERMINATION OF APPARATUS WEIGHT
BME Fire Trucks, LLC. shall submit estimated "in-service" weight analysis required by applicable NFPA standards. This Excel computer weight analysis shall break down all major components of the apparatus and shall show the impact on percentage-of-load on the front and rear axles, total weight, and weight on each tire set.

The analysis shall evenly distribute the NFPA required minimum payload allowance or estimated equipment payload as provided by the purchaser into the specified compartments. The allowance for personnel, hose loads, water and foam fluids, and required NFPA equipment shall be outlined individually in the analysis and placed on the apparatus in its specific intended position.

CENTER-OF-GRAVITY ANALYSIS
BME Fire Trucks, LLC. shall perform an estimated center of gravity calculation as required by the applicable section of NFPA standards. This calculation shall include tilt angles, the estimated right to left load distribution, and load on each axle, including all specified major components.

LOW VOLTAGE TEST REQUIRMENTS
The fire apparatus low voltage electrical system shall be tested as required by this section and the test results shall be certified by the apparatus manufacturer. The certification shall be delivered to the purchaser with the documentation for the completed apparatus. The tests shall be performed when the air temperature is between 0 degrees Fahrenheit and 110 degrees Fahrenheit.

TEST SEQUENCE
The three tests defined below shall be performed in the order in which they appear. Before each test, the chassis batteries shall be fully charged until the voltage stabilizes at the voltage regulator set point and the lowest charge current is maintained for 10 minutes. The failure of any of these tests shall require a repeat of the test sequence.

RESERVE CAPACITY TEST
The chassis engine shall be started and kept running until the chassis engine and engine compartment temperatures are stabilized at normal operating temperatures and the chassis battery system is fully charged. The chassis engine shall be shut off and the minimum continuous electrical load shall be applied for 10 minutes. All electrical loads shall be turned off prior to attempting to restart the chassis engine. The chassis battery system shall then be capable of restarting the chassis engine. The failure to restart the chassis engine shall be considered a failure of this test.

ALTERNATOR PERFORMANCE TEST AT IDLE

3 The minimum continuous electrical load shall be applied with the chassis engine running at idle speed. The chassis engine temperature shall be stabilized at normal operating temperature. The chassis battery system shall be tested to detect the presence of a chassis battery current discharge. The detection of chassis battery current discharge shall be considered a failure of this test.

ALTERNATOR PERFORMANCE TEST AT FULL LOAD
The total continuous electrical load shall be applied with the chassis engine running up to the engine manufacturer’s governed speed. The test duration shall be a minimum of two hours. The activation of the electrical system load management system shall be permitted during this test. The activation of an alarm due to excessive chassis battery discharge, as detected by the system required by NFPA (current edition), or an electrical system voltage of less than 11.8 volts direct current for a 12 volt direct current nominal system, for more than 120 seconds, shall be considered a failure of this test.

LOW VOLTAGE ALARM TEST
Following the completion of the tests described above, the chassis engine shall be turned off. With the chassis engine turned off, the total continuous electrical load shall be applied and shall continue to be applied until the excessive battery discharge alarm activates. The chassis battery voltage shall be measured at the battery terminals.

The test shall be considered to be a failure if the low voltage alarm has not yet sounded 140 seconds after the voltage drops to 11.70 volts direct current for a 12 volt direct current nominal system. The chassis battery system shall then be able to restart the chassis engine. The failure of the chassis battery system to restart the chassis engine shall be considered a failure of this test.

The completed fire apparatus shall undergo a complete 12 volt electrical load and performance testing per applicable sections of NFPA standards with inspection and test sheets included in delivery documentation.

DOCUMENTATION
The apparatus manufacturer shall provide the results of the low-voltage electrical system performance test, certified in writing, with the documentation provided to the purchaser at the time of delivery of the completed apparatus.

Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to facilitate vacating a Public Utility Easement (PUE) at 38631 Fremont Boulevard to support the construction of a 60- unitaffordable housing project located in the Centerville Community Plan Area.

BACKGROUND: Allied 38631 FREMONT, L.P., a California Limited Partnership, the property owner and developer of the project commonly known as City Center Apartment, applied with the City for the vacation of a public utility easement (PUE) on their property.

The PUE proposed for vacation was originally dedicated to the City on Parcel Map 2936, recorded on July 19, 1979. The PUE is located along the southwest portion of the property along Bell Street as shown on the location map included in Exhibit A, and the plot and legal description is included in Exhibit B.

On October 12, 2017, the City Planning Commission approved a Discretionary Design Review Permit to allow construction of a 60-unit supportive housing project for low, very-low and extremely-low income households. To fulfill the conditions of approval of the Discretionary Design Review, developer is required to submit an application to the City to vacate the PUE that is currently on the developer’s property.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS: California Streets and Highways Code Section 8333(c) allows for the summary vacation of a street right of way and public service easement when it is “superseded by relocation, or determined to be excess by the easement holder, and there are no other public facilities located within the easement.” The City is the easement holder, and city staff have reviewed and determined that the PUE is no longer needed and there are no other public facilities located within the easement. And all concerned utility companies were notified and have consented to the proposed vacation of the PUE.

FISCAL IMPACT: None.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The vacation of the public service easement is categorically exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act, as a minor alteration to land use limitations pursuant to CEQA Guidelines, Section 15305 (14 CCR § 15305).
