COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION FORUM
Request to Speak
January 9, 2024 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 1 of 12 Gloria Villegas: I'm the new Outreach Coordinator for the Guadalupe Dunes Center. I want to give a review of contributions to the City for the last quarter:
1. In October, we had the 100th year anniversary for the "Ten Commandments" which was a great success. Hundreds of people attended the event. There were three (3) shuttles that took people to the site. We're planning to do this annually and use the shuttle process. There were those here in town who had never been to the Dunes Center or knew about the "Ten Commandments being filmed here. We also had activities at Le Roy Park that day.
2. Spring Launch - sometime in March. "Explore the Coast" Program. Funds in excess of $60,000 to go to the junior high school (McKenzie) for field trips.
3. Coastal Stories of the Dunes. There is an untold history of people here. We want to foster a strong community to the dunes and its rich history with the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous People of Color) community. In mid-January, require engagement...telling the story of Guadalupe - it's culture, food and how it all ties into the dunes. Revitalizing parks... more accessibility to the dunes to cause people to see the beauty. We want to partner with other organizations to help facilitate that engagement. Once access to the beach reopens, that will help. People are now being directed to Oso Flaco for hikes once a month.
4. We want to do community cleanups. We have a Boy Scout crew... want to get the beach cleaned ир.
5. Some final events - Sunday Fun Day: partner with businesses in the community to have activities for kids, tours, etc. Around spring break, partnering with the Boys & Girls club on activities. Have a food vendor to get people out in the community.
We also want to open up opportunities to network with the community. Getting to know the structure. I know that Guadalupe doesn't have a Chamber of Commerce like Santa Maria. Is there something similar here? Mayor Julian said, "The Guadalupe Business Association, GBA.
Go to their website at visitguadalupe.org to find out information on them." Ms. Villegas then asked, "Are there organization that are non-profit to get involved with?" The mayor referred her back to GBA for key contacts and individuals.
CM Robles added, "April 22nd is Earth Day. That's a good day to mark on the Dunes Center calendar."

9. RECREATION SERVICES MANAGER: (Information Only)
A. Recreation and Parks report for November 2023
Mayor Julian said, , "Fastest growing activity is "Pickle Ball". I was asked why Guadalupe doesn't have this activity. Both Le Roy Park and the City gym can accommodate pickle ball. Pickle ball can be played at any age. It's a simple set up to make this happen. We should look at activities besides basketball, football, volleyball, etc. Be sure and put this in the minutes so it doesn't get lost!" CM Robles said "At Trilogy, there's an actual pickle ball league. We should look into this." CM Hernandez added, "On 2/23, there is the 'Father/Daughter Dance". Looking for volunteers...buying tickets. Tell Recreation Services Manager."
REGULAR BUSINESS
10. Human Resources Manager Position- Salary Range Increase.
Written report: Amelia M. Villegas, Interim Human Resources Manager Recommendation: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-03 approving the salary range increase for the Human Resources Manager position.
Ms. Villegas started by saying that three (3) of the current council members may remember that back in September 2022, a 6% salary range increase was proposed and approved. In hindsight, that was just a band-aid. The human resources labor market has significantly changed on the Central Coast which is what we consider our "labor market". The proposed 15% increase in the salary range isn't an attempt to have Guadalupe look like Santa Maria, or Paso Robles, or Arroyo Grande, etc.
Comparisons can't be made with those cities- that's "apples and oranges" comparisons. But Guadalupe can be compared with Solvang.
About one and one-half or two years ago, Solvang didn't have a dedicated human resources position.
Those responsibilities were handled through other departments. Solvang did develop a part-time position at 20 hours per week. The starting salary is $41.10 per hour or annualized, $85,500. Our proposed 15% increase would have the starting salary at $40.76 per hour or $84,800 yearly. Here are some comparisons: Solvang has 25 employees; we will have 42 in the next couple of weeks. We hired an officer yesterday. We'll hire two (2) OITs for the wastewater plant on January 16'h and on January 22nd, we'll hire the second police officer. Solvang doesn't have public safety. The County provides policing and fire support. We have public safety here. Solvang doesn't have a union.
Guadalupe has three (3) unions.
January 9, 2024 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 6 of 12 There are a number of disciplines that fall under the "umbrella" of human resources: employee/labor relations; employment/recruiting; compensation-job descriptions, salary surveys; benefits; training, and policy development. It's important that the person hired into this position be a generalist or someone who has experience in most if not all of the disciplines mentioned.
Equally important is that there be consistency with managers. Establishing relationships with managers, as well as employees, is critical. While there's no guarantee that anyone hired into this position will remain for any extended period of time, it is important to have someone in place who can build on those relationships which takes time. Someone with in-depth experience would be able to do so in a timely manner.
If a candidate doesn't have experience with unions, that's okay. If they don't have labor negotiations experience, that's okay, too. But the right candidate should have extensive employee relations experience, problem identification, analysis and resolution experience. Someone who is able to look at the whole picture and not the immediate issue in front of them. And would then ask the question:
'Does resolving this issue impact the rest of the City staff?' At this point, Ms. Villegas asked Mr. Bodem if he had any comments to add. Mr. Bodem said, "I support this salary range increase. Other HR departments in other cities have support staff. This is a single incumbent department. This is a critical position for our management staff. There are legal implications that could cost the City, if we don't have a qualified Human Resources Manager." Ms.
Villegas expanded a bit on the subject of support staff for the HR function. She said, "You might suggest that hiring a part-time support staff at a lower salary might be helpful. There isn't consistency in the workload that a part-time support person would handle. As the City grows, and it will, then look at a human resources support person. Again, an increase in the salary structure is needed to support hiring a strong, experienced Human Resources Manager." The topic was then brought back to the Council for any questions. Mayor Julian asked about the difference in title, like an HR Director vs an HR Manager. Ms. Villegas said, "A director would have a broader scope of responsibility than a manager. To go back in history for a bit, prior to 2006 the city didn't have a dedicated human resources function. A part-time position was developed and approved in March 2007 with the title of 'HR Director'. There was no particular reasoning for the use of 'director' title. In fall of 2012, an Interim City Administrator made some significant cuts in the budget. The HR position was cut by 30% with the title changing to 'HR Coordinator'.
Over time, with different City Administrators, the job description was revised with the title 'Human Resources Manager'. You can argue that it isn't a manager position because there isn't any staff to manage, which is true. But the person does manage a function." CM Costa, Jr. asked, "Will the budget be able to handle this increase?" Mr. Bodem said, "Yes, there's currently enough in the budget to handle for this fiscal year. We'll make an adjustment for the next fiscal year."
January 9, 2024 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 12 Motion was made by Council Member Costa, Jr. and seconded by Council Member Hernandez to approve Resolution No. 2024-03 to adopt the salary range increase of the Human Resources Manager position. Roll Call: Ayes: 4 Absent: 1 Motion passed.
11. Approval of the formation of a nonprofit corporation and hiring attorney Thomas Wrobel of the T.S. Wrobel Law Group, P.C. to assist with and complete the incorporation process.
Written report: Tom Brandeberry, Project Manager
Recommendation: That the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-04 approving the formation of a nonprofit corporation to support community and economic development activities for the benefit of the City and the hiring of the T.S. Wrobel Law Group, P.C. to assist with and complete the formation process for the nonprofit corporation.
Mr. Brandeberry, Project Manager, gave a brief background on this issue. The City Council approved numerous actions regarding the Royal Theatre, from bringing it to historic status, to obtaining funding from the federal Economic Development (EDA) in the amount of $4,889.121. And additional $5.OM was received from the California Arts Council (CAC).
There now is a final gap of approximately $3.OM for the project's full design. With the City Council's prior approval, City staff has been working with tax credit attorney and tax credit consultant to apply for both Federal Historic Tax Credits (HTC). New Market Tax Credits (NMTC) to fill the remaining gap in funding.
On NMTC, the City is ineligible to receive monies. Must go to non-profit. The HTC can go to 'for profit'. While the City can create a non-profit, it has been determined that the City cannot create an LLC or a 'for profit' corporation. To be able to apply for both tax credit programs, the City must create a non-profit to accept NMTC, and the non-profit must create a 'for profit' LLC to accept HTC.
To ensure the incorporation of the non-profit is done correctly, staff are recommending the Council approve the hiring of Thomas Wrobel, an attorney that works solely with non-profits on all aspects of legal services, including the incorporation of new non-profits.
Mir. Bodem said, "The non-profit doesn't have to apply to just the Royal Theatre. The non-profit can do other things. Mr. Brandeberry said, "What is it that a non-profit can do besides accept NMTC? It can include supporting the City with other community and economic development projects/services and supporting the City's services where there is a need. At the next meeting, we will flesh out more about what the non-profit will do; how many articles, by-laws, board members, mission, etc. and then bring back to the City Council to make sure we're going in the right direction. Then Thomas (Wrobel) will be brought in to do the legal documents." The mayor said, "City of Santa Maria and City of Lompoc have their own non-profits. Both mayors speak highly of the non-profits. We then will have the ability, as a non-profit, to look at other resources that will help the community. So, I'm in favor of this."
January 9, 2024 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 12 CM Hernandez said, "I really like how the City of Lompoc and the City of Santa Maria have their non- profits. Spearheading these conversations on non-profits. Is that Tom; who is that?" Mr. Bodem said, "Tom is working with Philip, the mayor, myself. We've been working on this, somewhat, behind the scenes." Mr. Brandeberry added, "I'll be helping to move it along making sure we get all the subject matters addressed. Organizing the meeting with Thomas when that time is right. Putting together a document to bring to the City Council. My understanding is that we would want to start with a smaller group then bring what we've come up to the City Council." Ms. Janice Davis asked, "Do other cities have 'for profit'?" City Attorney Sinco said, "No, it's not permissible for a city to develop a 'for profit'. The City can form a non-profit which makes sense, because a non-profit is seen as supporting a city's overall mission to benefit the public." Mr. Davis then asked, "More HTC question. Are other cities that receive HTC have other ways besides 'for profit'?" Mr. Brandeberry said, "City should go beyond just the project non-profit... should look at a city non-profit doing more." City Attorney then said, "Is there another way the HTC can be funded through other than 'for profit'? If that's what you asked, I believe the answer is 'no'. This is how they work." Mr. Brandeberry said, "The HTC require it to go to a 'for profit'." Mayor Julian said, "The first step is the non-profit. Then the second step is the 'for profit'." Mr.
Brandeberry said, "The attorney that was hired as a tax consultant is the one giving us direction as the best way forward. This isn't a decision we're making ourselves. It's our tax credit attorney who is suggesting this process."
Motion was made by Council Member Hernandez and seconded by Council Member Robles to adopt Resolution No. 2024-04 approving the formation of a non-profit and hiring attorney Thomas Wrobel to assist with and complete the incorporation process. Roll Call: Ayes: 4 Absent: Lizalde Motion passed.

14. ADJOURNMENT TO SUCCESSOR AGENCY BOARD MEETING
Motion was made by Council Member Robles and seconded by Council Member Costa, Jr. to adjourn to Successor Agency Board Meeting. 4-0 Absent: Lizalde Motion passed.
SUCCESSOR AGENCY
15. Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and Administrative Budget for the July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, Period.
Written report: Joy Otsuki, Special Counsel to the Successor Agency Recommendation: That the Successor Agency adopt SA Resolution No. 2024-01 entitled "Resolution of the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City of Guadalupe approving the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule for the July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, period".
Ms. Otsuki briefly explained that the Successor Agency is funded with tax increment money that are allocated to the Successor Agency by Santa Barbara County. ROPS sets forth the ongoing obligations January 9, 2024 City of Guadalupe Council Meeting Minutes Page 10 of 12 that need to be funded by the Successor Agency. She said that we are getting close to winding down the Successor Agency or at least taking care of the ongoing enforceable obligations. The two primary remaining obligations are: 1) Debt service for the 2017 tax allocation bond, and 2) the administration of the Successor Agency. The ROPs request for the debt service for the bond and funding for the administrative cost which are broken down in the administrative budget as to the portions of the salaries covered for a portion of the City Administrator, Finance Director, her fees, City Attorney, and other such professional fees.
Once the City Council approves this, it goes to the Oversight Board in Santa Barbara next week.
Provided they approve it, then it goes to the Department of Finance. If the Department of Finance approves it, then the Successor Agency gets two (2) distributions of property taxes - one on July 1st and the other on January 1s' for fiscal year 24/25.
The administrative cost will be used to transfer the 'Al's Union' property to the City. Last month, the Council approved the transfer of the 'Al's Union' property to the City. That will go to the County Oversight Board next week, as well. In addition to taking care of that property and transferring it out, there's some reconciliation that Janice (Davis) is working on that has to do with the remediation of 'Al's Union' and the reimbursements from the leaking underground storage tank fund. Once the 'Al's Union' property is transferred and the remediation is reconciled, then the Successor Agency will be eligible to file a last final ROPS which will basically project the debt service out until 2037 which is when the bond matures. Once that is approved by the Council, County Oversight Board and the Department of Finance, there won't be a need to prepare and get approval for this schedule every year. It will automatically get paid out by the County to the City as the Successor Agency so Finance can make bond payments - it will be on 'autopilot' until 2037.
Motion was made by Council Member Hernandez and seconded by Council Member Robles to adopt SA Resolution No. 2024-01 approving the Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule and Administrative Budget for the July 1,2024 through June 30, 2025 Period. Roll Call: Ayes: 4 Absent:
