Mid Valley Disposal Municipal Solid Waste Franchise Supplemental Agreement- Staff Report by Public Works Director Daniel Galvez
Kingsburg City Council Minutes
October 5, 2022
Sponsor: Public Works Department
Public Works Director Daniel Galvez presented about the regulations from the passing of SB 1383 that provides a complex array of mandatory requirements for all California cities requiring all residential and commercial premises to comply with a rigorous organic waste recycling program.
SB1383 has outdated our current disposal franchise agreement with Mid Valley Disposal (MVD). The initial 10-year term of the current agreement is set to end in June of 2024. To meet the demands of implementing, managing, and administering the requirements of SB 1383 an amendment to the current agreement was considered, due to complexity and number of changes required a supplemental agreement is being proposed. The supplemental agreement would allow for MVD and its staff to handle most of the requirements under SB1383. The initial term of this Agreement shall retroactively commence on October 1, 2022 and expire on June 30, 2032. Beginning on July 1, 2024, and on each July 1 anniversary date thereafter, the term of this Agreement will be extended automatically for one (1) additional year, so as to have a rolling term of ten (10) years.
As previously mentioned, the supplemental agreement incorporates many new aspects, staff has highlighted a few important sections of agreement:
• Effective date as October 1, 2022.
• Reporting includes any federal or state agencies (not just Calrecycle) • CPI language reflects current agreement
• First CPI adjustment will be July 1, 2023
• Franchise fee section updated to indicate the rates do not include franchise fees as is now. • City free service sites listed to include parks
• Annual clean-up language updated to reflect current practice.
Council Member Palomar asked about the green waste container. Public Works Director Galvez said it will not change. Brown will change to green. Council Member Palomar asked what will happen to the phased out brown cans? Mid Valley said they will be recycled. Mid Valley gave an update.
Council Member Roman motioned, seconded by Council Member Hurtado, to adopt Resolution 2022- 064 approving the proposed Municipal Solid Waste Franchise Supplemental Agreement with Mid Valley Disposal effective retroactivity to October 1, 2022, with the new term beginning July 1, 2024, and expiring June 30, 2032. The motion carried by unanimous voice.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On February 9, 2022, Governor Newsom signed into law 2022 COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave (“2022 SPSL”). The 2022 SPSL applied to the City of Kingsburg and covered all full and part-time employees who could not work or telework due a qualifying reason (see below). The new law went into effect on January 1, 2022 and expired on September 30, 2022. Governor Newsom has since signed AB 152, extending the requirement for all California employers with more than 25 employees to continue to provide COVID-19 SPSL through December 31, 2022. The extension does not replenish employee leave banks if they have already used some or all their leave. It is an extension of time, not an additional benefit.
Leave Entitlement:
2022 SPSL provides covered employees with up to 80 hours of COVID-19 related paid leave, with up to 40 of those hours for isolation & quarantine, receiving vaccines, and caring for a child whose school or place of care is closed and up to an additional 40 hours when an employee, or family member for whom the employee provides care, tests positive for COVID-19. Firefighters can take as many hours as they were scheduled. The law limits the amount paid to the maximum of $511 per day or $5,110 in total. Part-time employees are entitled to a pro-rated amount of leave based on their average number of hours worked in a week during the preceding 6-month period.
Qualifying Reasons for Leave:
Circumstances that allow a covered employee to take the 2022 SPSL include:
• Caring for Yourself: The covered employee is subject to a quarantine or isolation period related to COVID19 (see note below) or has been advised by a healthcare provider to quarantine due to COVID-19, or is experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 and seeking a medical diagnosis. • Caring for a Family Member: The covered employee is caring for a family member who is either subject to a quarantine or isolation period related to COVID-19 (see note below) or has been advised by a healthcare provider to quarantine due to COVID-19, or the employee is caring for a child whose school or place of care is closed or unavailable due to COVID-19 on the premises. • Vaccine-Related: The covered employee is attending a vaccine appointment or cannot work or telework due to vaccine-related side effects.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
REPORT TO: Mayor North & City Council
REPORT FROM: Christina Windover, Administrative Services Director REVIEWED BY: AH AGENDA ITEM: Unrepresented Management Employees Salary and Benefit Resolution ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution __Motion ____Receive/File
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Kingsburg currently has 16 unrepresented management employees, excluding the City Manager. The unrepresented management team consists of 8 department heads and 8 mid-management job classifications who are primarily responsible for ensuring the delivery of City Council goals and policies at the department level. Since unrepresented management employees are at-will and not represented by an organized labor group, the City does not negotiate compensation with these classifications either as individuals or as a group. Instead, the City’s past practice has been to set forth a series of benefits determined by City Council, as outlined in the Personnel Manual, Kingsburg Public Service Employees Association Memorandum of Understanding, Salary Charts and stand-alone policies. The proposed Resolution 2022-065 synthesizes and codifies the off-salary schedule wages and benefits for this group. Base wages will continue to be adopted separately by a City Council-approved Salary Chart.
RECOMMENDED ACTION BY CITY COUNCIL
1. Approve Resolution 2022-065
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S)
1. Council could decline to approve the proposed benefits and/or provide staff direction.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION/KEY METRIC

CITY COUNCIL MEETING STAFF REPORT
REPORT TO: Mayor North & City Council
REPORT FROM: Alexander J. Henderson, City Manager; ICMA-CM REVIEWED BY: AP AGENDA ITEM: Master Fee Schedule Update
ACTION REQUESTED: ___Ordinance ___Resolution ___Motion _____Receive/File
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Each year, staff reviews the existing Master Fee schedule to determine if changes are needed to ensure services provided are being adequately funded by the appropriate parties, and taxpayers are not responsible for funding or subsidizing activities that are often development driven. Such fees shall in no case exceed the actual cost of providing the service in compliance with Article XIIB, Section 8(c) of the California Constitution.
Staff is recommending fee schedule changes in the following areas:
1. Ambulance and Fire Dept.
- Ambulance/medical rate adjustments based upon CPI (see attached). Council provided direction in 2021 to adjust the fees using a consistent model to avoid large increases and ensure the Ambulance enterprise fund remained solvent.
- Establish/Update hourly rates for personnel and equipment in order to properly bill for services and also receive reimbursement for Cal OES assignments.
2. Community Development Dept.
- Temporary Sign Permit Review Fee ($25)
- Oversized copying fee ($10.00)
- Technology Fee (0.1% of valuation to support software solutions)
3. Public Works
- Encroachment Permit Formula Adjustment (see narrative for full breakdown) - The proposed fee structure will allow us to more accurately charge fees related to the proposed work and not just have a one size fits all approach. This solution helps protect both the applicant from potential overcharging and the taxpayer from having to subsidize a project that was undercharged.
4. Community Services
- The city is in the process of implementing an online software solution, CivicRec, through our website provider, CivicPlus. The feature will offer online park reservations, fee collection, and other Community Service programs.
- Currently, the city charges two separate fees for use of electricity during a park reservation – for resident and non-residents. Limitations in the software do not allow us to charge (or verify) resident vs. non-resident charges, and as such we are recommending a single fee for those using electricity during park rentals.
Included with your packet is detailed fee information, as well as narrative justification for each proposed fee change and/or addition. By law, Council must authorize the fees that are charged and the city must

Ambulance & Fire Dept. Fee Proposal (see Resolution for rate comparisons) To continue the efforts of the Fire Department to remain solvent as an enterprise for the City of Kingsburg, it is necessary to regularly adjust the ambulance rates that the ambulance charges for the services it provides. The rates help cover both personnel and cost of medical supplies, fuel, and equipment maintenance. Raising the ambulance rates for the persons in the 150 plus square mile county contracted area of the ambulance will not negatively impact most of the persons that the ambulance currently serves, as nearly 95% of those billed by the ambulance have some form of medical insurance - 60% Medicare /Medical, 35% Private Insurance and 2 % private pay - no insurance.
The last increase for ambulance rates was done in 2021. At that time, Council directed staff to research and make yearly determinations of annual respective price increases to the rates charged by the Fire Department Ambulance so that we could remain solvent and avoid large one-time increases. Staff has researched and proposes the following:
Each year the ambulance rates will be increased to match the yearly, regional Consumer Price Index, considering the average of the All Items Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Medical CPI. These two data points will be averaged, and the resulting percentage of CPI will be the ongoing yearly increase to Kingsburg Fire Department Ambulance Rates.
The current two-part average is 7.05%.
Expenditure methodology
General CPI methodology
The CPI measures inflation by tracking retail prices of a good or service of a constant quality and quantity over time. Tracking retail prices allows CPI to capture changes in out-ofpocket household spending over time. Each month, the various item indexes reflect the observed price changes, aggregating up to all items CPI.
In the aggregation process, each item index is assigned a relative importance, or weight. The weight of each item in the CPI is determined using the Consumer Expenditure Survey (CE) which collects information from the nation's households and families on their buying habits (or expenditures), income, and household characteristics. Goods and services that consumers spend the most on will be the most heavily weighted. Additional information on CE and how weights are calculated and updated can be found in the CPI and the CE sections of the BLS Handbook of Methods.
CPI Latest Numbers
CPI-U, US CITY AVERAGE, ALL ITEMS:
NSA +8.7%since Aug 2021
MEDICAL CARE METHODOLOGY:
The CE tracks consumer out-of-pocket spending on medical care, which is used to weight the medical care indexes. CE defines out-of-pocket medical spending as:
•patient payments made directly to retail establishments for medical goods and services; •health insurance premiums paid for by the consumer, including Medicare Part B; and •health insurance premiums deducted from employee paychecks.
Employer paid portions of insurance premiums and fully tax-funded medical care (such as Medicare Part A and Medicaid) are not considered out-of-pocket, and therefore not used in weighting the indexes.
While the weight of each CPI medical care related index is determined by out-ofpocket spending, price change reflected by the indexes measure the total reimbursement to medical care providers. This includes medical care payments made by private insurance companies, Medicare Part B, and Medicare Part D on behalf of consumers.
For example, in the physicians’ services index, we consider the price of an office visit to be the patient’s $20 copay, as well as the $80 insurance payment to the physician, for a total of $100.
The $100 figure is used when calculating any price change.
The reason for this apparent discrepancy is due to challenges the CPI faces when pricing health insurance; this is described in more detail in the health insurance section. Medicaid and worker's compensation payer types are not eligible for the CPI since consumers do not make out-ofpocket payments to participate in these programs.
Note: Since the relative importance of medical care only includes out-of-pocket expenditures, its share in the CPI is smaller than its share of gross domestic product (GDP) and other national accounts measures. GDP includes reimbursements that are fully paid for by public sources and employers, increasing medical care’s share of GDP.

Combined, these two areas; All goods and Medical Services average would be 7.05% Statistics and Data derived from: Latest Numbers : U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (bls.gov) Personnel and Equipment Reimbursement
The Kingsburg Fire Department is need of establishing a general schedule of fees for Fire Equipment and Personnel. These fees are to assist in the reimbursement for Fire-Based equipment and Personnel as has been customarily seen with Ambulance transports. It has become necessary to establish specific fees that are charged per hour for each apparatus as well as for each member on the apparatus in accordance with the requirements set forth in CA. AB1705 (2019) as well as acceptable billing practices for reimbursable Auto insurance incidents (i.e. Traffic collisions where vehicle extrication or entrapped occupants are present and the Jaws of Life or other extrication tools are utilized by Fire Department members).
These fees are directed to those reimbursable vehicle insurance fees as well as reimbursable medical team fees that are allowed to be billed for through CA Assembly Bill 1705 – Hertzberg. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billText.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FEE PROPOSALS
Planning Fee: Existing: Requested:
Temporary Sign Permit $0 $25.00
Oversized Copying Fee $0 $10.00
Building Fee
Technology Fee $0 Percent of job valuation
(Recommendation: 0.1% of job
valuation)
Narrative:
Temporary Sign Permit: The Kingsburg Zoning ordinance (17.15.040) addresses temporary signage in this section. This type of signage is used when a business wishes to have special signage signifying intentions such as ‘Grand Opening’ and ‘Coming Soon’. These signs are meant to be temporary, often made of vinyl and are a less expensive option for applicants. Until recently, we did not have a sign permit nor a way to track the sign issuance, or the requirement that they be removed within a certain time. Surveying local cities, a recommended charge of $25.00 will cover the cost of administrative time to review applications and ensure the sign proposals follow existing zoning code regulations.
Oversized Copying Fee: The only machine capable of making oversized copies is the Community Development Department plotter. The operation of this machine, when used as a printer, is time consuming and the inputs (printer ink, paper) are expensive. While the department supports printing maps for interdepartmental use, we have had historical requests for bigger print jobs to be done at our expense by outside agencies. A fee of $10.00 will also cover the occasional request from the public for a full-sized zoning map.
Technology Fee: With the advent of COVID, many agencies escalated their receipt and processing of information online in response to physical shutdowns. Some agencies were already invested in software investments as a response to increase customer service. For smaller cities without planning/building software, a change to ‘online submittals’ meant a dramatic increase in individual emails to be received, sorted, sent and to keep track of. Often plan file sizes were too big to manage, requiring another third party software to download and archive. There was no increase in transparency for the public (no public portal), and no additional tools for staff or the public to use such as interactive GIS maps. While currently our permitting system is sufficient, it is only locally supported and does not interface with the Fire Department nor the City Engineering firm and is not available for the public to view.
Many cities have instituted a technology fee as a small percentage of the building permit process to assist in the ongoing investment in technology (software). There are several permitting software solutions that offer a variety of online services. Staff is currently gathering information from a few vendors, keeping in mind budgetary restrictions, the size of our city/staff, and our current focus on not only increasing ease of use for the public but also improving our internal workflow. The Community Development Director searched for examples of technology fees both locally and around the state. Most agencies charge either by a percentage of the building permit fee in total, or a percentage of the job valuation. Valuations are given by the applicant when a permit application is submitted. The most common formula (Reedley, San Mateo, Pasadena) uses a percentage of the job valuation.
When reviewing the most common permits in Kingsburg (Solar, Re-Roof permits), applying a .1% of total job valuation would add $9.90 to a re-roof permit and $11.00 to a solar installation.
PUBLIC WORKS FEE PROPOSAL
Public Works Fee: Existing: Requested:
Encroachment Fee $25 +3% of project valuation 5% of the first $50,000 of the cost of improvement
3% of the next $450,000 of the cost of
improvement
1-1/2% of the remaining amount of the
cost of improvement
Narrative:
Encroachment permits are typically needed when work will be done in the City right of way. For example: driveways installations, sidewalk repairs, tree trimming, utility installation/ upgrades, and repairs both underground and overhead.
The work range for an encroachment permit can be as simple as a sidewalk closure for a tree removal or be as complex as an installation of a high-pressure natural gas line.
The encroachment permit grants the applicant temporary use of sidewalks, roads, and curbside parking areas.
As part of the application process, applicants will continue to submit plans of the proposed work, in addition to a traffic control plan (TCP), if applicable. The TCP may consist of simple barricades and delineators or require partial or full lane closures and/or road closures with detours depending on the scope of work.
The fees charged for the permit cover the administrative cost to review the plans, traffic control, as well as a review and set conditions to ensure work is being completed according to our City Standards. This may include staff from the Building Department, City Engineer, Public Works, Fire and PD.
Once the permit has been approved and during certain stages of work – inspections occur to ensure traffic control is in place and that the work is being completed as indicated. Inspections are also done when the work is complete to ensure the area of work was repaired and returned its original condition or better. The time for a permit also varies depending on the scope of the work.
We currently charge $25 plus 3% of the proposed improvement cost and there is no maximum. With the current fee structure, there is a potential to collect too much or not enough based on the proposed improvement estimate.
The proposed fee structure is identical to the grading permit fees. The proposed fee structure will allow us to more accurately charge fees related to the proposed work and not just have a one size fits all approach. This solution helps protect both the applicant from potential overcharging and the taxpayer from having to subsidize a project that was undercharged.

PARK ELECTRICITY FEE UPDATE
I would like to update the fee associated with park rentals to better assimilate with the new CivicRec software. The new software will streamline the process for residents interested in making a reservation online for one of our park pavilions and picnic spaces.
The current fee structure is broken down into multiple categories, which can not be codified in the CivicRec programming. After working with the finance department, I would like to change the fee to one flat rate for all residents.
Current Rate Structure:
Resident Rate: $25.00 (per reservation)
Non-Resident Rate: $45.00 (per reservation)

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City advertised the 10th Avenue & Draper Street Intersection Improvements Project and requested bids on September 6, 2022. The work to be done consists, in general, of signing and striping improvements, curb ramp reconstruction and installation of a rapid flashing beacon system.
On September 27, 2022, the City received three responses from contractors for the project with bids ranging from $61,820.00 to $76,350.00. The lowest bid was submitted by ARES General Engineering from Tollhouse, California in the amount of $61,820.00. ARES General Engineering possesses an active Class A Contractors license in the State of California and the license is in good standing.
The bid documents state that bidders are required to purchase the contract documents from the office of the City Engineer to be considered eligible bidders. The reason for this is to ensure that the City can distribute any addendums directly to bidders prior to the bid opening. The requirement prevents the City receiving a low bid lacking all of the addendums acknowledged; which could happen if the bidder downloads the bid documents from the City’s website and then does not check back for addendums. Of the three bids received only one of the bidders purchased contract documents and were added to the bidders list. The other two bidders obtained the bid documents from the City website. All three bidders received and submitted the one signed addendum with their bid.
The failure to purchase the bid documents from the City Engineer is an inconsequential deviation from the bid requirements. To be considered inconsequential, a deviation must neither give the bidder an unfair competitive advantage nor otherwise defeat the goals of ensuring economy and preventing corruption in the public contracting process. Here, the failure of the two contractors to comply with the requirement of purchasing the bid documents from the City Engineer did not give any bidder an unfair advantage nor did it defeat the goals of ensuring economy or preventing corruption. If the two other bidders who did not purchase the bid documents from the City Engineer are “responsible bidders” as defined by statute, the city has the right to award the project the lowest bidder.

R920-F
Solar-Powered Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon Data Sheet * U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highways Administration, Publication No. FHWA-HRT-10-043 - “Effects of Yellow Rectangular Rapid-Flashing Beacons on Yielding at Multilane Uncontrolled Crosswalks” Superior Design and Technology
The R920-F utilizes a self-contained solar engine
integrating the Energy Management System (EMS) with
an on-board user interface, housed in a compact enclosure together with the batteries and solar panel. A larger
solar engine enables the R920-F to work with audible
pushbutton stations, passive activation sensors, and
remote monitoring, as well as operate at higher intensities and increased activations in challenging environments.
Easy Installation
With its highly efficient and compact design, installation is quick and uncomplicated, dramatically reducing
installation costs. Retrofitting can be done where
existing sign bases are used to enhance existing marked crosswalks in minutes, and new installations can be
completed without the cost of larger poles, new bases,
and trenching.
Advanced User Interface
The R920-F comes with an on-board user interface for
quick configuration and status monitoring. It allows for simple in-the-field adjustment of flash pattern, duration, intensity, ambient auto adjust, night dimming, and many more. Settings are automatically sent wirelessly to all units in the system.
Reliable
Every solar-powered model is solar-sized by location to ensure year-after-year operation. Carmanah includes
a Solar Power Report to prove sustainability over a
12-month period.
