There were no requests to change the agenda.
5. PRESENTATION
• Central Coast Community Energy – Annual Member Agency Update Mr. Gabe Ruiz, Central Coast Community Energy (“CCCE”) Key Account Specialist for Guadalupe, gave the presentation via zoom. CCCE purchases and deliveries electricity for the communities served. The following is a summarized version of that presentation:
• CCCE has served approximately 50% of the customers in California and is the largest community choice in the state with offices in Monterey and San Luis Obispo. There currently are 33 members with another city potentially to join. Geographically, CCCE is the largest community choice in the state.
• Cities with populations less than 50,000 share a seat on the policy board. (Santa Barbara Counties have Buellton, Solvang and Guadalupe.)
Agenda Item No. 8C
February 22, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 2 of 7 • CCCE has 94% enrollment, with an emphasis on their outreach program. Guadalupe has
98.6% enrollment or 2,543 customers.
• Since March 2018, CCCE has saved communities $50M. There is over $14M set aside for FY 21/22 energy programs. Over $140M in their Rate Stabilization Fund. CCCE has received an “A” rating with S&P.
• CCCE’s goal by 2030 is to have 100% clean and renewable energy, with goal of 60% reached by 2025, financially benefiting customers and CCCE to reduce operating costs of $8M - $15M per year.
• Prior to Guadalupe joining, CCCE gave rebates at the end of the year but switched to show monthly discount on the bill itself. During the beginning of the pandemic, May & June 2020, CCCE had 50% bill reduction, totally approximately $24M in savings. For the months following through February 2022, there has been a 2% discount which will change in March. • CCCE’s 2022 goals for service offerings include “predictability, simplicity, fairness and competitiveness” with the intent of being transparent explaining where the dollars go. • Approach to Rate Design: Create simple, easily understood customer classes based on size and usage and allocate total cost across customer classes. • 4% of operating revenue goes into a variety of energy programsfor the community. ElectrifyYour-Ride Program has funds available to residents for purchase of electric vehicles and electric charging stations. Energy Program Funds – Guadalupe School District has applied for an electric school bus and will receive $200k for that. • CCCE promotes programs through their Field Promotion for agricultural workers in Counties of Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.
• CCCE is creating resources to help customers get access to data and make informed rate decisions.
• CCCE is working with their member agencies to ensure customer fairness and equal access to resources on regulatory and legislative matters.
• CCCE is working with communities to show there is money to give to residents.
Mr. Ruiz concluded his presentation and asked if there were any questions. There were no questions asked. CM Cardenas then said, “Thank you. These are great programs available for our community, especially moving forward toward cleaner energy in Guadalupe.” Mr. Ruiz thanked the Council for the opportunity to give his presentation.
6. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION FORUM
Each person will be limited to a discussion of three (3) minutes or as directed by the Mayor.
Pursuant to provisions of the Brown Act, no action may be taken on these matters unless they are listed on the agenda, or unless certain emergency or special circumstances exist. City Council may direct staff to investigate and/or schedule certain matters for consideration at a future City Council meeting.
Mr. Lupe Alvarez spoke regarding the stipends for Mayor and Council. He said, “A change in the stipends should be considered by the City Council. From 2004 to 2012, I was mayor. The City Council’s stipend has been $150.00 for 30-35 years. The Council does a lot of research, a lot of studying and has a lot of meetings. A lot of time is given. I would like to see discussion by the Council to have the stipend go up to $300-$350 for the mayor and $250 for the Council. The mayor probably works 30-40 hours a week as it is. Being on the Council is not a way to make a living but this is a February 22, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 7 way to compensate for their time. Also, it might encourage some other talent in the community, new members, retirees who live here already. When it’s $150.00 and you’re putting in so much time, it doesn’t go a long way. If there was a change, it would not take effect until after November, until after the election. Some of you might be here. Some of you might not.” At this point, Mr. Alvarez asked City Treasurer Michaud, who is also a Guadalupe School Board Member, what the stipend was for a Board Member. Ms. Michaud said, “$225.00 at the School Board.”
7. CONSENT CALENDAR

Items #7.B., 7.E., 7.G. and 7.J.4. were pulled. Motion was made by Mayor Julian and seconded by Council Member Costa, Jr. to approve the remainder of the Consent Calendar. 4-0 Passed.
Absent: Ramirez.
Item #7.B. – Warrants
repair. He asked, “Is there any consideration for O’Connell Park trees? There are 23 trees on the westside of the park that needs trimming.” He asked Ms. Shannon Sweeney, Public Works Director, if she could respond. Ms. Sweeney said, “We had originally allocated $70,000 of ARPA funds for vegetation maintenance. About $29,000 is to be used for the existing contract. When we finish that current project, we’ll look at the westside of the park to use any remaining funds.” Mayor Julian thanked Ms. Sweeney for her response.
Item #7.E. – Local Road Safety Plan
Mayor Julian referred to page 1 of Attachment 1, where there is a picture of city limits and the railroad crossing by Hwy 166 and Hwy 1. The mayor said, “In speaking with DJ Farms/Pasadera, and Shannon knows this…I know there was to be a meeting regarding the request by, I don’t know if it’s CalTrans, SBCAG, or whoever, or the railroad, to put, right where you see the railroad crossing (the white sign), they have requested, whoever requested to have DJ Farms put a sidewalk on the southside of Hwy 166 – that’s the sidewalk to nowhere. That thing goes across…you don’t want people going on the southside of the railroad tracks then crossing the railroad tracks without any crossing guards or anybody else nor walking across the street to the northside of the sidewalk. I know Shannon is working with that group and I just wanted to make sure we can see how we can clarify that. Again, you don’t want to have the sidewalk to nowhere.” On page 2, it’s a minor thing, under “Acknowledgements”, Mayor Julian said, “It shows Guadalupe Chamber of Commerce. I’m assuming that should be the ‘GBA’, Guadalupe Business Association. I was wondering why…maybe because it isn’t a government agency or entity, why DJ Farms/Pasadera wasn’t included in this discussion? They have a considerable interest in everything regarding the project on the southside of the street. That’s just a comment. There isn’t a question to do that. I think it would have been nice to have them since they’re a big ticketholder in this whole process.” The mayor continued saying, “That’s just to see if we can do something, especially with that sidewalk. Shannon is working on that. I know DJ Farms is willing to do that but is it tied into, perhaps, the signalization and the request by the owner of DJ Farms to have something to do with the crossing guards and everything else that’s going to be put into that intersection once the lighting goes through? That’s just some feedback to Shannon and some of the concerns that I and others have on that sidewalk.”
Item #7.G. – Facility Rental Coordinator Job Description Mayor Julian questioned the hours for this part-time position, specifically the noted flexibility schedule with ‘3 hours on Saturday’. He said, “There needs to be more flexibility. The person may February 22, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 5 of 7 be needed more than the 3 hours on Saturday. Especially if you go back to Attachment 2, it shows that this position ‘is also responsible for the facility rental process and assists with other recreation programs, as necessary’. So, if someone can’t be available for the weekend or Saturday, then I think there needs to be more flexibility in how we create that. I don’t want to lock in for somebody to say ‘I’m only available 3 hours’ and then they can’t work on a Saturday. Maybe we can modify that to say, ‘as needed’. It may be in there already, but I wanted to bring that up.” Ms. Emiko Gerber, HR Manager, said, “I’ll make a note of that on the job description. I believe that will be perfectly okay.
For the purposes of our labor union, SEIU, that will be protecting this job, this position, their suggestion was that we put in a minimum number of hours that we’d want somebody on Saturday.
At our meeting with CM Robles, yourself, Recreation Commissioner Emily Dreiling and Hannah (Fuentes), we discussed the idea of having a Saturday mandatory set of hours. I think at the time we just arbitrarily said three (3) hours based on the 18-hour workweek. We can certainly make that change to add ‘or, as needed’ so that we can tie into flexibility.” The mayor had no further comments.
At this point, Mayor Julian made a motion to approve the remainder of the Consent Calendar.
However, Item #7.J.4. had not been discussed.
Item #7.J.4. – Los Amigos de Guadalupe (LADG)
Ms. Alma Hernandez introduced herself and said, “I’m the Board President for LADG. I’m really happy to report that today was the on-boarding and first day for Alejandra Enciso Medina who is now the Executive Director for LADG along with Thomas (Brandeberry). They’re going to be codirectors for a little while she gets completely onboard and gets familiar with everything. There’s just so much going on. We just wanted to make sure that everything continued as it was going. We have so many projects up in the air. The Le Roy Park project is estimated to be completed with a ribbon cutting in late April or early May. All the information is on the report on that and other projects. LADG was recently awarded $200K from CalFire for an Urban Tree Master Plan. An application for $10M was just submitted for the Royal Theatre. They are hoping to have it shovel ready by the end of the month.”
Ms. Hernandez also introduced Alejandra Enciso Medina, LADG’s new Executive Director. Ms.
Medina spoke briefly about her background. She said, “I’m a long-time Guadalupe resident having gone to school at Mary Buren School, McKenzie Middle School, Righetti High School, then Allan Hancock. I’m a Board Trustee at Allan Hancock representing Area 3 which includes Guadalupe and south Santa Maria. Currently, I’m working on my master’s and doctorate. Hopefully, I’ll do you all proud.”
CM Cardenas then said, “You already do. Thank you so much for everything that you do, LADG, for Guadalupe, and for meeting you. You know our community in and out so, we’re really excited for you.”
Mayor Julian said, “I’ll amend my motion to include Item #7.J.4. Motion made by Mayor Julian and seconded by Council Member Costa, Jr. to approve Items #7.B., #7.E., #7.G. and #7.J.4. 4-0 Passed
Absent: Ramirez
8. CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT: (Information Only)
February 22, 2022 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 6 of 7 Mr. Bodem did not have any items to report at this time.
9. DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC SAFETY REPORT: (Information Only) Chief Cash had two (2) items to report:
He said, “With the cold weather, there are the homeless sleeping in the streets. “We’re working with three (3) homeless shelters in Santa Maria now, Good Samaritan Shelter, Salvation Army and Power of God Christian Center. We just got the report from Santa Barbara County. They’re looking to hire to fill the 31 staff shortage. So, if there’s anyone looking for employment to help keep those shelters open, I just want to put that information out there.
Also, the PD put out a ‘Community Alert for Suspicious Subjects’. We’ve had two (2) incidents right now of people following some of the kids, before and after school, trying to entice them to come into vehicles. We have some photographs. We put up a Community Alert and sent those the schools.
We’re putting them up in businesses. We also sent that information to the Community Alert that you can get from the City. I had a great citizen, Jeannie Mello, who has very graciously put information out on Facebook to advise people how to go on the City website. You scroll down to the very bottom. A lot of people ask how to get the safety alerts. On the City website, it says ‘Public Safety Alerts’ and it shows you how to put your information into the system so you can get this kind of information. We did this with the hostage situation we had at Christmas now this Community Alert. We’re trying to keep the community informed of incidents so that we, hopefully, apprehend the subjects.”
10. MAYOR’S REPORT- UPDATES
For clarification, Mayor Julian mentioned item #5 on this report, ‘Butcher Shop Ribbon Cutting Ceremony’. He said, “I was an hour early for the ribbon cutting. I got a firsthand orientation of it. I didn’t get any birria but I wasn’t there at the ribbon cutting. I think it’s great to have the business here in town.”
11. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS
No additional future agenda items were added to the list.
12. ANNOUNCEMENTS – COUNCIL ACTIVITY/COMMITTEE REPORTS
Mayor Julian said, “I appreciate CM Cardenas taking over at this quick notice. That then sets her up in tune for being able to meet this in the future if that be her desire. And it’s good to see Hannah (Fuentes) back from the cold country.”

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GUADALUPE
Agenda of March 8, 2022
_H.Fuentes____________________ __________________________________ Prepared by: Approved by:
Hannah Fuentes, Recreation Services Manager Todd Bodem, City Administrator SUBJECT: Le Roy Park Community Center Mural Contest
RECOMMENDATION:
For the city council to review the competition and process thereof for approval.
BACKGROUND:
As part of the renovation of the Le Roy Park and Community Center, the contractor’s scope of work included the completion of a mural on the gym entrance wall, see attached schematic and photograph.
The construction company, with input from the design team, recommended a mural company to complete the work. The budget for this scope of work was $5,000. The mural company met with the Amigos de Le Roy Park to get input on designs. Some ideas were given to the company, who in turn submitted a draft idea to the Amigos de Le Roy Park. It was the Amigos group's wish to have a unique mural that would depict the community of Guadalupe.
The mural company’s draft submission was not approved by the Amigos group as it did not reflect the City’s rich cultural history or the nature of the Guadalupe community today. Consequently, the City, the design team, and the contractor agreed that the funds for the mural, which were in the contractor’s budget, would be donated to Los Amigos de Guadalupe, for the purpose of creating a local art competition which would award funds to a local artist who would design and paint the mural.
DISCUSSION:
To create a mural that we would hope would attract visitors and reflect the community of Guadalupe, Los Amigos de Guadalupe (LADG) proposed that the city hold a mural contest for local artists and community members. They submitted this proposal to the Recreation and Parks commission who approved it. LADG is suggesting (see attached flyer for details) the following process:
1. LADG would market the competition throughout the community, utilizing social media, the Royal Theatre marquee, GUSD parent notification systems, and flyers distributed around the community (restaurants, library, etc.).
2. All design submissions would be sent to Hannah Fuentes, Recreation Services Manager.
3. The Recreation Services Manager will present all submissions to the Recreation and Parks Commission for the Commission to select the top three designs.
4. The three winning designs will then be presented to the City Council who will choose the winner.
5. The contract would award $2,500 up front to the winning design (to allow for the purchase of materials and supplies), and the final $2,500 will be given to the winner after the successful completion of the painted mural with the winning mural design.
6. LADG will handle the payments to the winning artist.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact has been identified. The $5,000, which LADG has deposited into its bank account, offered for the contest winner was already budgeted in the city’s plan for the renovation of the community center at Le Roy Park.

Agenda Item No. 8E
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GUADALUPE
Agenda of March 8, 2022
_______________________________ _________________________________ Prepared by: Approved by:
Emiko Gerber, Human Resources Director Todd Bodem, City Administrator SUBJECT: Adoption of Side Letter Agreement with Service Employees International Union, Local 620, for 2021-2023.
BACKGROUND:
The City Council approved Resolution No. 2021-48 adopting Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Service Employees International Union, Local 620 (“SEIU”), for 2021-2023. Staff recommends the adoption of a resolution to execute a side letter agreement between the City of Guadalupe and SEIU amending the MOU to include a voluntary alternative workweek schedule, commonly referred to as 9/8/80 or 9/80’s.
DISCUSSION:
An Alternative Workweek Pilot Program was approved in the MOU for a 9/8/80 schedule effective July 1, 2021 thru December 31, 2021. The program was voluntary on the part of employees; managers reserved the right to approve or deny based upon position and department needs.
Feedback from mangers and employees was positive and continued to be a successful incentive to those wishing to work longer hours Monday-Thursday, permitting every other Friday off. Managers reserved the right to allow alternating Fridays off for full coverage throughout departments.
Following a review of the pilot program that was scheduled 90 days after effective date and 60 days prior to expiration, it was agreed by the City and SEIU membership to continue offering the program in an official capacity.
The goals of the program include maintaining or improving overall productivity and service to the public, maintain or improve morale and teamwork, provide expanded hours of service to the public, and to reduce staff absences for medical and other appointments by scheduling such appointments on off-days to assure that no additional or disproportionate share of unit work falls on staff who do not choose an alternate work schedule.
A side letter agreement was agreed upon by City staff and SEIU concerning continuing the 9/80 alternative schedule program, which is attached hereto (Attachment 1). A side letter agreement modifies, clarifies or interprets an existing provision in an MOU, or addresses issues of interest to the parties that are not otherwise covered by the MOU.
FISCAL IMPACT
Due to the format of the 9/8/80 schedule, there is no loss of work time within a 14-day or 2-week payroll period:
• One work week of five workdays, consisting of four days of 9 work hours and one day of 8 work hours (each with an unpaid meal break); and
• One work week of four days of 9 work hours (with an unpaid meal break) and one day off; the day off on this schedule must fall on the same day of the week as the 8-hour day in the other week.

Goals of Alternate Workweek Program
The goals of the program are:
• To maintain or improve overall productivity and service to the public. • To maintain or improve morale and teamwork.
• To provide expanded hours of service to the public.
• To reduce staff absences for medical and other appointments by scheduling such appointments on off-days.
• To assure that no additional or disproportionate share of unit work falls on staff who do not choose an alternate work schedule.
Specific Conditions of the Project
Each employee in the (specific unit(s) covered) shall indicate his/her desired work schedule. The numbers of employees needed to start at (time), (time), and (time) will be determined by management based on coverage needs.
The scheduling options are:
Regular: Five consecutive workdays of eight consecutive hours each, between the hours of (earliest start time) and (latest end time), of which there will be the unpaid meal break no later than after the fifth hour of work.
9/8/80: A two-week schedule providing nine workdays during that period, within the following conditions:
• One work week of five workdays, consisting of four days of 9 work hours and one day of 8 work hours (each with an unpaid meal break); and

It is understood and agreed to by all parties to this agreement, including employees participating in the 9/8/80 schedule, that for the purpose of designating the seven consecutive day work period for the calculation of overtime, one work period shall commence at the midpoint of the employee’s shift of the 8 hour day and end at the midpoint on the day off; the other work period shall commence at the midpoint of the day off and end at the midpoint of the 8 hour day.
These periods, for each employee participating in the 9/80 schedule, shall be specifically designated, and be declared, in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act.

Alternate Workweek Program Agreement
9/8/80 Schedule
The (managers/unit supervisors) shall then draw up the final schedule for the alternative workweek program, considering their program’s staffing and coverage needs throughout the work week, with the highest priority period being peak usage hours of (list peak usage hours).
The following shall be the criteria for any individual’s participation in the 9/8/80 schedule:
• A current standard performance evaluation.
• Willingness to be flexible regarding the specific work schedule. • Satisfactory attendance. Individuals with excessive unscheduled absences will be moved to a regular eight-hour workday.
• It is understood that an employee who is still on his/her initial City probationary period or who has received written notice of performance deficiencies may be required to work either an 8/5 schedule or the same schedule as the unit supervisor for the duration of that probationary period or defined period of corrective action.
• Schedules, once selected and assigned, will be for the duration of the pilot program. However, it is understood that during the pilot project, the schedules assigned may have to be varied by the unit supervisor because of unanticipated or unusual circumstances that cause staffing needs to change. Employees on jury duty or attending training for example, may be required to return to a standard schedule during that period. Requests to withdraw from or re-enter the pilot project will be evaluated and determined by the manager.
• (If not all units are part of the pilot project): Individuals who are participating in the 9/8/80 schedule and who, during the pilot project, transfer out of their original unit, will not continue to participate in the 9/8/80 schedule at a new unit not covered by the pilot project. • If an individual should transfer or be hired into a unit covered by this pilot project during the project period, he/she will move into the schedule of the individual who vacated the position being filled. If the new employee is not filling a vacated position, he/she may have a 9/8/80 work schedule upon agreement of the unit supervisor and provided his/her desired schedule fits with those of other unit members to assure the unit’s service and coverage requirements are met. • Schedules must fit the actual work pattern of the unit in such a manner that work is not distributed disproportionately upon one worker or group of workers because of the days off they have chosen, or because they have not chosen a 9/8/80 work schedule. • The core workday(s) will be (day(s) of the week), apart from those regularly scheduled to work Tuesday-Saturday; no worker may schedule his/her regular 9/8/80 day off on undesignated day(s).
• No person will be permitted work-out-of-classification solely because of the absence of another employee on a regularly scheduled 9/8/80 day off.

9/8/80 Schedule
Holiday Pay
Employees on the 9/8/80 schedule will be required to make the following holiday adjustments when the holiday is taken off:
Work an 8/5 schedule for that two-week pay period and take the holiday off, or retain their 9/8/80 schedule and charge their time as follows:
• If the holiday falls on the employee’s regular scheduled day off, the employee will have eight (8) hours added to his/her holiday balance.
• If the holiday falls on the employee’s regularly scheduled nine-hour workday, the employee will code his/her timecard for eight (8) hours holiday pay, and will be charged one hour vacation, compensatory time, or accrued holiday time.
An employee on a 9/8/80 schedule who works a holiday will be paid at time-and-one-half for eight hours of work on the holiday; the remaining one hour worked shall be at straight time, unless such hour is overtime (work more than forty hours during the week). The employee shall also be credited with eight hours added to his/her holiday accrual balance.
Evaluation factors for the 9/8/80 pilot project shall be:
• Unscheduled time off and time accrual:
o Unscheduled absences – Unscheduled sick leave shall be kept to a minimum. A comparison will be made between sick leave use during the pilot project and use for the corresponding period in the previous year. Unacceptable levels of absenteeism will result in termination of 9/8/80 privileges for an individual or termination of the 9/8/80 schedules unit wide. o Coverage problems – In order to implement a 9/8/80 schedule, it is essential that employees are at their work-stations ready to begin work at their scheduled start times, that employees honor break and meal break schedules and return from such breaks on time, and that employees do not leave earlier than scheduled. Any problems in these areas would result in termination of 9/80 privileges for an individual or termination of the 9/80 schedule unit wide.
Overtime and compensatory time accrual – there shall be no increase in overtime or compensatory time accruals because of inability to complete work or need for adequate coverage.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GUADALUPE
Agenda of March 8, 2022
_______________________________ _________________________________ Prepared by: Approved by:
Emiko Gerber, Human Resources Director Todd Bodem, City Administrator SUBJECT: Approval of Classifications and Job Descriptions for Associate Planner, Permit Technician, Engineering Technician, Maintenance Lead, Park/Facilities Lead, Recreation Leader/Building Attendant, and Emergency Services Manager.
BACKGROUND:
The City has been experiencing transition with the departure of Maintenance Field & Operations Manager, the Emergency Preparedness Coordinator, and the anticipated retirement of Planning Director. Beyond immediately covering responsibilities, such transitions provide an opportunity to revisit the positions to determine if any changes are warranted given current and future needs of the organization, taking into consideration professional growth opportunities and succession planning. Staff conducted such a review with the assistance of an outside planning consultant, department managers, and is proposing the following recommendations for Council to consider.
DISCUSSION:
The City currently employs an independent contractor to act as Planning Director for the Building and Planning Department. The contractor has announced his retirement for December 2022, and while he will be available for training and consultation on more complex issues staff is recommending the development of a new classification and position, Associate Planner. This will be a full-time, exempt position and the incumbent will be expected to work at an advanced level and handle the majority of the City’s planning needs. The associate-level offers professional growth opportunities, competitive salary, and succession planning for the department.
A City employee is currently serving as a Permit Technician, but staff has discovered that the Council never considered and approved a job description for this position.
Accordingly, staff has prepared a job description for this position for the Council’s review and approval. A classification and salary range for this position does currently exist.
The Department of Public Works has experienced moderate movement to its Maintenance/Streets Division. In January 2021, a Maintenance Worker transferred to Code Compliance and in April 2021, the Maintenance Field & Operations Manager retired. The operations managerial position was not filled as the Director of Public Works/City Engineer wanted to reassess overall department needs. With major
construction projects and grant opportunities in various planning and construction phases, and following the Director of Public Works’ reassessment, staff recommends engineering support to assist in project management, drafting, and complex technical matters. Staff is recommending the development of a new full-time/non-exempt position, Engineer Technician. In addition, staff recommends development of a Maintenance Lead position to lead new personnel, assist with project scheduling and capital improvements.
To have more control and minimize response time with outside vendors, the City moved the majority of landscaping and janitorial needs in-house and hired a second Maintenance Worker I. With the recent hire of Recreation Services Manager, staff is recommending that Recreation and Parks Department develop a maintenance crew to focus on the specific needs of City facilities and parks. Currently, Public Works’ maintenance staff is only able to tend to parks when major construction projects arenot active.
This has resulted in a lack of consistency in maintaining park facilities. Staff is recommending the development of a new full-time/non-exempt position, Facilities & Parks Lead, to provide planning and scheduling of major maintenance to daily oversight in its parks and facilities. The Maintenance Worker previously hired by Public Works would now be supervised by Facilities & Parks Lead.
In anticipation of adult and youth recreational programs and activities offered by the City, staff is recommending the development of a new on-call or seasonal position, Recreation Leader/Building Attendant. This is an entry-level classification responsible for supporting an assigned program area or special event, providing oversight and customer service to participants, parents, and community members.
The City Council previously adopted the classification of Emergency Preparedness Coordinator, a fulltime/non-exempt position, to develop the City’s Emergency Preparedness Response Plan, design and coordinate emergency management exercises, carry out annual disaster drills, and be prepared to manage the Emergency Operations Center (EOC). While assessing the City’s safety program and outstanding recommendations by its workers compensation and general liability insurance carrier, California Joint Powers Insurance Authority, it became evident that mitigation and personnel training were neglected. Staff is recommending a reclassification to a full-time/exempt position, Emergency
Services Manager. This elevates the position from merely coordinating preparedness and response efforts to analyzing and implementing prevention practices, mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery.
FISCAL IMPACT
In order to develop proposed salary ranges, staff performed a local market median salary survey of neighboring cities (see attachments). Listed below are the proposed salary ranges. Adequate funding in the current budget for these new positions was reviewed and approved by Council during the February 8, 2022 mid-year budget review.
The mid-year budget reported that expenditures for the remainder of the fiscal year for the Building and Planning Department are projected to be over budget by about $25,000 related to personnel costs.
Updated payroll calculations for this department included a new associate planner to be hired in midApril and a temporary assignment to help with scanning with the new software to be funded with ARPA in the amount of $1,210. The budget was amended to be increased by $25,210 to accommodate for this position at the B range for 440 hours in the current fiscal year. There is no change to the already budgeted Permit Technician position or fiscal impact.
The mid-year budget reported that expenditures for the remainder of the fiscal year for Building Maintenance are projected to be over budget by about $161,000. This includes an increase of $18,220 for personnel changes which include a new maintenance worker, who was hired in October and an engineering technician expected to be hired in April. The budget was amended to accommodate for this position.
The mid-year budget requested a change from Maintenance Worker I [$57,000] to Maintenance Lead position for Recreation and Parks for $85,500. The budget was amended to accommodate for this position.
The funding for either Recreation Leader for programs or Building Attendant for special events would be paid directly from registration or facility rental fees. There is no direct fiscal impact to the budget.
The mid-year budget requested an additional $3,298 of ARPA funding for the differential for the Emergency Services Manager position.

Public Works staff worked with other transit partners in the region on February 24 to discuss the use of Low Carbon Transit Operations Program (LCTOP) funding in the area. $537,224.00 was made available to the City of Guadalupe, which will be applied towards the purchase of a zero-emission transit bus. On February 28, staff spoke with Susan Davison, Key Accounts Specialist with Central Coast Community Energy (3CE) about opportunities for funding zero–emission vehicles using 3CE funding. She indicated that up to $250,000 may be available for this purchase. An electric transit bus costs between $850,000 and $1 million. An additional $94,000 previously awarded to the City through the State of Good Repair funding program, can also be applied toward this purchase.
Water
Distribution
The automatic valve feeding the elevated tank failed on Saturday, February 12. The manufacturer made repairs on Monday February 28. In the meantime, staff filled the tape manually and checked chlorine residuals daily to ensure that the water in the tank stayed potable.
A hydrant at 233 Guadalupe St. was hit on Saturday, February 12. Approximately 420,000 gallons of water was released before the pipe could be isolated.
Public Water system statistics
On February 10, staff completed the public water system statistics spreadsheet as required by the County of Santa Barbara, well in advance of the March 1 deadline. In calendar year 2021, unaccounted for water was calculated at 5% of total water supplied.
West Main Street Water Line Project
On February 11 this project was advertised for construction. Bids for construction and proposals for inspection are due on March 10. This project was identified in the 2014 Water Master Plan update and budgeted in the fiscal year 21– 22 budget. The project involves replacing approximately one-thousand feet of 4-inch pipe with 12-inch pipe on W. Main Street from Guadalupe Street to Pioneer Street and will improve fire flows to the middle school.
Operations
City staff adjusted water well operations to reduce electrical costs during peak power cost time of day, which is now 4 PM to 9 PM daily. Staff observed operations daily to ensure that the new operational scheme does not negatively impact water supply to the community.
.
Wastewater
Regulatory
No overflows were reported the month of February 2022.
The wastewater treatment plant experienced no violations the month of February. 2021 Trunk Main Improvement Project
This project involves upsizing 3,000 feet of sewer main and is vital for meeting current and future capacity issues, fixing broken pipe, and moving sewer trunk main from private property into the public right-of-way where practicable. The construction on this project is more than half done. In February the contractor completed the sewer line up Pioneer Street and onto 5th Street. Work in March is anticipated to include 5th Street east of Pioneer Street and Campodonico between 5th Street and 6th Street. Delays may be anticipated due to traffic control during construction on these streets. Anticipated completion date for this project is April 2022.
Effluent Pump Station
This project involves the rehabilitation of the effluent pump station at the wastewater treatment plant. It is partially funded through an Integrated Regional Water Management Program (IRWMP) grant. The contractor has already received a Notice to Proceed on this project. Due to the long lead time associated with PG&E review of the electrical installation and the time needed for pump manufacture, construction for this project was scheduled for February 2022. However, due to supply chain issues, project construction has been delayed to May 2022. We have received a letter from the pump manufacture locating the pumps are on a ship from Japan but we do not have berthing information yet, so we do not know when they will be available for installation. .

Food Bank deliveries to approximately 30 homes of elderly, disabled and/or homebound individuals/families at high risk for COVID-19, every other Wednesday.
For the month of February, here is info for the monthly distribution:
Total Families Served: 299
Total Individuals Served: 1346
Auditorium
At the January 12, 2022, Recreation and Parks Commission Meeting Public Works Director Shannon Sweeney presented cost estimates for auditorium repairs. The Recreation Commission requested revised numbers on the proposed vinyl covering for the gym floor.
An estimate was done on how much it would cost to refinish the floor every year versus the cost to purchase the vinyl floor covering, equipment, and staff time needed to roll out the mats for each event. After presenting the information to the Recreation Commission they chose the option of refinishing the floor every year as opposed to the floor covering. They then approved the commencement of all auditorium repairs presented to them.
Electrical work will begin the week of February 28, 2022. Materials (i.e., new stage and wall mats, window drapes, arch LEDs, etc.) are being reviewed prior to purchase.
LeRoy Park
Work continues to be done at LeRoy Park. The project is estimated to be completed around April.
Jack O’Connell Softball Field
Volunteer work, led by Mayor Ariston Julian, continues to be done at Jack O’Connell softball field in order to bring the field up to playing standards. The city sprayed the overgrown area of grass that needs to be removed from the infield. Last Saturday volunteers brought rakes out to remove all the larger rocks from the field which was the biggest safety concern. The city tilled the weeds and grass. The next step would be to purchase infield material, mix with current material, and prepare for practice.
CJPIA Meeting
The city risk manager representative from CJPIA, Tim Karcz, met with Mayor Julian, Todd Bodem, and Hannah Fuentes on Wednesday, February 16, 2022, to discuss potential programs and facilities from a risk management standpoint. A follow up meeting by Mr.
Karcz with Recreation Manager, Hannah Fuentes, was conducted on Thursday, February 24, 2022, to create a list of action items for the Recreation Manager to implement moving forward. The list is composed of the following items:
• Facility Use Agreements/Proof of Insurance required of all parties using city facilities
• Participant Liability Waivers signed by participants/legal guardians of participants that are minors for any city run programs
• Volunteer Process
o Onboarding
Clear DOJ live scan from any volunteers prior to participation in any youth programs
Liability Waiver required
o Create Volunteer Handbook
Recreation Programs
A spring program proposal was submitted to the Recreation and Parks commission at the last meeting. The proposed programs are listed below:
• Youth Basketball Camp
• Youth Basketball Classes
• Youth Softball Camp
• Coed Adult 11 v 11 Soccer League (16+)
• Coed Adult Softball League (16+)
These programs and their proposed registration fees are currently being reviewed by the commission and will be discussed at the next Recreation and Parks Commission Meeting on Wednesday, March 9, 2022.
2022 Summer/Fall Activity Guide
Recreation Services Manager, Hannah Fuentes, is currently working on creating a 2022 Summer/Fall Activity Guide. This is tentatively scheduled to be presented to the Recreation and Parks Commission at the April 13, 2022, meeting. Following their approval, it will be submitted to the council for approval.
Respectfully,
Hannah Fuentes

Updates below:
1. Cannabis Meetings
On March 15, 2022, at 5 p.m. the City Council will hold the commercial cannabis interviews.
There are 5 commercial retail applicants and 1 commercial manufacturing applicant.
2. Food Distribution
From the Senior Center, as always, on Thursday, March 3, 2022, the volunteers stepped up and successfully delivered the food to those in need of food.
3. Public Meeting – CDBG 2022
The City will be applying for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). The City will seek community input in the design phase of the application process. These funds are the same funds that are renovating the Le Roy Park and community center and support the city’s resilience planning process. Event date/location: March 10th at 6 p.m. in City Council Chambers and by zoom.
4. Community Outreach Meeting
At the March 1, 2022, managers meeting, the department heads discussed seeking input from the community from a city departmental and citywide perspective. Staff would like residents and stakeholders to participate openly to city department heads and hear their concerns.
Staff tentatively feel that the Vets Hall would be best venue and thought that grilling hot dogs for the public- anyone can participate, no registration/cost or invitation required. “Stakeholders” is the collective term that refers to residents, business owners, community organizations and non-profits that have an interest in the community.
It will be interactive discussion, led by the City Administrator and Department Heads, where residents are invited to share concerns, challenges, opportunities, and aspirations for the city.
Its staff’s way to obtain face-to-face feedback between city staff and the community.
Tentative time/date: Tuesday, March 29th at 6 p.m.
The Administrator will mention this during his verbal report at the March 8th City Council meeting in case any councilmember has any consternation or questions.
Agenda Item No. 11
5. Building Committee
On February 15, 2022, the Building Committee met with Architect Tom Martinez about maintenance and improvements to the city hall building. It needs repairs! The Committee focused on the need to repair the roof tile, underlayment, and gutters along with assessing the floor beams and trusses. Public Works Director Shannon Sweeney will have structural engineer review the integrity of the city hall building. The Committee feels an assessment of the ‘bones’ of the building is the most important focal point and would recommend a redirect of ARPA funds designated for the city council chamber remodel and use it for roof repairs/tiles/other.
Additionally, most the chambers communication apparatus has been delivered to the Administration Department and soon ready for installation.
6. Potential Grocery Store
Contract Planning Director Larry Appel mentioned to the City Administrator about a developer from another State who may be interested in building a grocery store (15-20K square feet). The developer doesn't know anything about Guadalupe, and it seemed like sort of a phishing trip. Staff is just letting Council know there are inquiries like this from time-totime.

SUBJECT: O'CONNELL PARK- NORTHEAST CITY PROPERTY/PROPOSED GSHF BALL FIELD
WEED ABATEMENT UPDATE
This note serves as an update regarding our organization, Guadalupe Sports Hall of Fame, effort to complete a softball/softball field on the north end of O'Connell Park adjacent to Calle Cesar Chavez Street. Over 12 years ago plus, members of the GSHF approached the City Council to inform the council that our organization was raising money and receiving other financial support to build a softball/baseball field in this area. The City approved this effort. Our organization has spent over $87,000 for various field preparation to include grading, payment of hardscape in the back stop area, fencing poles for the back stop, etc. What remains for the project is fencing, irrigation, outfield turf, infield dirt, etc; about $50,000- $75,000 for the later.
In the past, the city was not able to mow the area of weeds at the designated ball field area and we volunteered to do so. In discussions with Shannon several years ago, since the city was still not able to pay for weed abatement, we committed to continue weed abatement not only for the ball field area but for all the area inbetween the existing ball field fence line to the sewer treatment plan fencing. Also, we have cleared the weeds all along the sewer treatment fence line to include People's Self Housing parking lot fencing. Basically, all the weeds beyond the existing ball field fence line and the area from the parking lot to the fence line defining the sewer treatment plant and PSSH fence. There have been several instances where the city staff may have cleared weeds but for the most part, GSHF assumed this task.
With all that said, since the City now is in a better staffing position, with appropriate landscaping tools, effective March 1, 2022, we are committed only to weed abate in the area designed as the City's Softball/Baseball field as defined by the existing city plans for this development. In a separate email, I will send forward photos of the proposed area we will continue to abate weeds.
As may be known, I have been working with the Santa Barbara County Parks Master Plan to keep our foot in the door of the potential for funds to renovate O'Connell Park. As expected, we will keep Hannah and the City involved in this effort since the park is the property of the City.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding this note.
Thank you,

Agenda Item No. 12
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GUADALUPE
Agenda of March 8, 2022
________________________________ __________________________________ Prepared by: Approved by:
Larry Appel, Contract Planning Director Todd Bodem, City Administrator SUBJECT: Informational report from planning staff on the possibility of regulating food trucks and sales carts within the City Limits.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The City has no regulations in place that would prohibit or restrict the use of food trucks and sales carts within the corporate boundaries of Guadalupe. During the previous two City Administrators’ tenure, this issue of food trucks came up, but the staff report prepared at that time for each administrator was not released to City Council. Staff has been directed by the current City Administrator to provide some basic information about food trucks and to determine if there is sufficient interest on the part of City Council to move forward either with an urgency ordinance or a permanent food truck ordinance.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1) Receive presentation from staff; and
2) Accept public testimony; and
3) Close public comment; and
4) Deliberate and file the report; or
5) Direct staff to return to Council when a draft ordinance is ready for consideration; or 6) Continue to another Council meeting for further discussion and deliberation BACKGROUND:
Staff has processed a number of business licenses over the past four years that have allowed food trucks to operate within city limits. Extensive research with numerous staff has not turned up anything in the Guadalupe Municipal Code (GMC) to regulate food trucks. It was discovered, however, that an older version of the GMC covered peddlers, hawkers and street vendors, along with a requirement to pass a fingerprint check. Unfortunately, those sections of the ordinance had been removed from the GMC.
DISCUSSION:
Larry Appel
In bringing this information to Council, we would like to know if you have a desire to regulate the operation of food trucks and sales carts within the community. With the popularity of food trucks in the past few years, there is not always a stigma with their use and operation. As an example, the City of Santa Maria provides a seasonal market place at Town Center West called Downtown Fridays. The venue includes live entertainment, retailer booths and a small farmer’s market along with 5-10 food trucks who provide a variety of dining opportunities.
In previous years, municipalities have regulated the food trucks such that they minimize their impacts on traditional brick and mortar restaurants. In Santa Maria for example, Ordinance 96-14 was adopted, adding Section 7-5-04 to their municipal code which regulates “catering vehicles.” The ordinance identifies the amount of time a vehicle can stay in one location depending on if it is located on public or private property and if there is a restroom and hot water available to the customers. If the Council majority is interested in going forward with an ordinance, staff could utilize the Santa Maria ordinance as a template.
Staff is interested in knowing what Council would like to see specifically if an ordinance is requested. For instance, will there be a provision that allows food trucks for special events as in Santa Maria, or is there a desire to limit their locations and times as a more restrictive approach? Staff also wants to address sales carts and see if there is interest in regulating them as well. The carts have been known to operate at the city parks, along commercial corridors as well as residential neighborhoods. Carts as well as food trucks require permits from County Public Health, and a business license issued by the City. Without any ordinance in place, staff will continue to approve these permits.
Staff is looking forward to an informative discussion with Council along with input from the public as well as other departments to determine what direction we will go with this topic.
