SUMMARY:

Issues:

1. Should the City Council adopt a resolution approving side letters to the 2023-2026 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of La Mesa and the Heartland Firefighters of La Mesa Local #4759 (Fire), and the 2022-2025 MOU between the City of La Mesa and the La Mesa City Employees’ Association (LMCEA), and amend the benefit plan of unrepresented employees to change the structure of the City’s contribution to the employees’ cafeteria style benefit plans from a flat dollar amount to a percentage of the average of two plans?

2. Should the City Council adopt a resolution approving side letters to the 2023-2026 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of La Mesa and the Heartland Firefighters of La Mesa Local #4759 (Fire), and the 2022-2025 MOU between the City of La Mesa and the La Mesa City Employees’ Association (LMCEA), and amend the benefit plan of unrepresented employees to provide an employer match to the City’s 457 deferred compensation plan of up to $1,500 per calendar year?

3. Should the City Council adopt a resolution approving a side letter to the 2022-2025 MOU between the City of La Mesa and the La Mesa City Employees’ Association (LMCEA) to add two additional days to the holiday closure for this year (December 23, 2024 and January 2, 2025)? Recommendation:

1. The City Council adopt a resolution approving side letters to the Fire and LMCEA MOUs and amending the benefit plan of unrepresented employees to change the structure of the City’s contribution to the employees’ cafeteria style benefit plan from a flat dollar amount to a percentage of the average of two plans.

2. The City Council adopt the resolution approving side letters to the Fire and LMCEA MOUs, and amend the benefit plan of unrepresented employees to provide an employer match to the City’s 457 deferred compensation plan of up to $1,500 per calendar year.

3. The City Council adopt the attached resolution approving a side letter to the LMCEA MOU to add two additional days to the holiday closure for this year (December 23, 2024 and January 2, 2025).

Fiscal Impact:

Staff’s recommendation will have an estimated maximum impact of $790,148 in Fiscal Year 2024-2025 and 2025-2026.

City’s Strategic Goals:
 Ensure a strong financial outlook through careful planning, sustainable service levels, and fiscal sustainability.
 Nurture an organizational culture where employees are recognized for the delivery of high-quality services to the community.

DISCUSSION:

Cafeteria Plan. The City contracts with California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) for medical insurance, which offers ten different medical plans.

The medical premium rates are established annually by CalPERS and are provided to the City in late summer. The City provides employees with a monthly stipend to purchase medical, dental, and vision insurance for employee coverage and eligible

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers

dependents. For calendar year 2024, medical rates increased by an average of more than 10%. In December 2023, City Council approved increases to the cafeteria amount and made the contributions equal across all labor groups through side letters with LMCEA, Fire, and La Mesa Police Officers’ Association.

In an effort to retain and recruit City employees and lesson the financial burden of increased medical premiums, the City has met and conferred with Fire and LMCEA groups to change the cafeteria contributions from a flat amount to a percentage of the premiums of the two plans in which the majority of City employees are enrolled. The proposed cafeteria amount would be based on 90% of the average premium of that year for the Sharp and Kaiser plans, in lieu of a flat dollar cafeteria amount. This change would be in effect beginning the first full pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2025, using 2025 medical premium rates for LMCEA, Fire, and unrepresented employees.

In the event that the total cost of benefits is less than the cafeteria amount, the employee will not receive the balance as cash.

While the 2025 medical premium rates are not yet available, the chart below displays new rates using 2024 rates as an example:

EE+2 or more $1,694.58 $2033.68 +$339.10 +$4,069.20
The City is currently in negotiations with La Mesa Police Officers’ Association with the goal to keep all groups at the same cafeteria contribution structure.

Deferred Compensation: The City has an established 457(b) deferred compensation plan for employee participation through Mission Square (formerly ICMA-RC). It is available to all employees on a voluntary basis and provides a resource to defer a portion of their compensation to supplement their pension and provide additional financial security. Currently, the City does not contribute any funds to employees’ deferred compensation.

Employer matches to deferred compensation plans are widely used as a tool for recruitment and to address retention issues with lower retirement formulas for employees hired after the 2013 pension reform act. To address recruitment and

Page 10 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 4 of 5
retention issues, the City has met and conferred with LMCEA and Fire to establish an employer match in that if an employee voluntarily elects to contribute towards the City’s 457(b) deferred compensation account, the City will match those contributions dollar-for-dollar up to $1,500 per calendar year. This employer match will be effective the first full pay period on or after July 1, 2024 for Fire, LMCEA, and unrepresented employees. The combined contributions of the employee and employer are subject to the annual maximums as defined by the Internal Revenue Service for deferred compensation plans.

Holiday Closure: Section 1.12.01 of the LMCEA MOU recognizes the closure of City Hall, Public Works Yard, and Community Services for the work days between the observed Christmas holiday and the observed New Years’ Day holiday (typically four days). The City covers 50% of the closed days and employees use their accrued leave for the remaining 50% of the closed days. Christmas Eve is also a recognized holiday per the MOU. Some employees may be required to work some or all of those days based on the operational needs of the City.

Due to the way the holidays and 9/80 work schedule fall on the calendar this year, the City would only be open one day the week of Christmas (12/23/24) and only one day the following week (1/2/25) because Friday, January 3, 2025 is a closed Friday.

Staff has proposed and LMCEA has agreed to add two days to the upcoming holiday closure (12/23/24 and 1/2/25). The provision to split the leave 50/50 between the City and employee would still apply. This change would only be applicable to the upcoming 2024 holiday closure.

WHEREAS, LMCEA and the City desire to amend Section 1.12.01 Holiday Closure section to add an additional two days to the holiday closure only for the upcoming 2024 holiday; WHEREAS, LMCEA and the City desire to add Section 1.19.01 Deferred Compensation to provide an employer match if an employee elects to contribute toward the City’s 457(b) deferred compensation account as a dollar-for-dollar match, up to $1,500 per calendar year, effective the first full pay period beginning on or after July 1, 2024; and WHEREAS, the City and LMCEA desire to amend the terms of the LMCEA MOU stated herein subject to ratification by LMCEA and the City Council.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City and LMCEA agree as follows:

Section 1.18.01 Cafeteria Plan is amended to read as follows:

SECTION 1.18.01 CAFETERIA
The City agrees to provide a cafeteria style benefit amount for all employees. The City’s current monthly cafeteria contributions effective January 1, 2024 are:
 Employee Only: $754.72 per month
 Employee + 1: $1,189.32 per month
 Family: $1,694.58 per month
Effective the first full pay period beginning on or after January 1, 2025, the City’s cafeteria amount will be based upon 90% of the average premium of that benefit plan year for the Sharp and Kaiser plans. The premium rates are released by CalPERS Health by August of each year, and the City will provide the new cafeteria contributions immediately following the release.

The cafeteria contribution shall be used to pay for the benefits in the plan(s) selected by the employee, to include health insurance, dental insurance, and flexible spending accounts and other options that may be provided by the City.

In the event that the total cost of benefits exceeds the allowance, the difference shall be deducted from the employee’s salary as a payroll deduction.

For the December 2024 holiday, the City agrees to close an additional two days (December 23, 2024 and January 2, 2025) due to the way the holiday and 9/80 work schedule fall on the calendar.

City’s
Strategic Goals:
 Continue to improve high quality municipal services
BACKGROUND:

The City of La Mesa went live with the MaintStar land management and permitting software in March of 2022. MaintStar Inc. was founded in 1984 and currently provides advanced software services to several hundred clients across the United States, including Alameda County in California. The company develops all of its own software to limit the need for thirdparty licensing. The system is completely browser-based, hosted, updated, and maintained by MaintStar, thereby relieving the City of the need to purchase and maintain additional servers or to back-up its data. The City's data is secured and maintained by MaintStar.

The City utilizes MaintStar as a browser-based, data-driven management system for City records pertaining to development applications, plans, building activities, permit processing, and code enforcement. The system centralizes and integrates all aspects of the activity lifecycles, from initiation/application through ultimate disposition. MaintStar also includes workflow management, Geographical Information System interaction, mobile field access, and both configurable and standard custom reporting features. The system provides project applicants with the capability to perform a range of activities through the online public portal, where they can submit permit applications, submit plans, check status of applications, pay fees, and request inspections.

MaintStar, Inc. services were selected through the formal bid process, specifically through RFP 19-02. The features and capabilities sought in the RFP were provided by MaintStar at very competitive pricing. The City awarded MaintStar, Inc a five-year Professional Services contract for the implementation of the system on March 26, 2019. The pricing included the enterprise software with unlimited City users, licenses for EPlanSoft plan review, as well as the design, testing, and implementation of the system. The City’s Purchasing Officer may waive competitive bidding if the City Council by resolution determines that the repair or contract service needed is required to match, integrate or be compatible with an existing structure or program presently in use by the city and the purchase or contract is made from the firm who previously satisfactorily performed/provided similar repair or contract services for the city, per La Mesa Municipal Code Section 2.40.070(a)(5). Purchasing of professional Department Account Percentage

services will ensure usability and security of the existing system. Under these facts, the circumstances are that MaintStar, Inc. can provide land management and permitting services; and, as such, staff recommends that it is in the best interests of the City to enter into a contract without a formal bidding process.

DISCUSSION:

Since the selection of MaintStar, Inc. in 2019, the City has worked with MaintStar to implement the Building, Engineering, Fire, and Code Compliance modules that are currently used on a daily basis. There have also been beneficial upgrades made to the system to make it more efficient and user-friendly. To continue use of the system, ensure usability and security of the system, the City must enter into a new agreement with MaintStar, Inc. to maintain licensing hosting, and support for any future upgrades or enhancements the City aims to implement.

A new five-year agreement between the City and MaintStar, Inc. will ensure that all development information continues to be monitored and managed, and allow staff to continue with daily processes as per usual with no loss of technical support or data.

Costs for the ongoing maintenance of the permitting system are expected to be approximately $450,000 over five years, and all divisions in the General Fund and Wastewater Fund who utilize the system will budget for their expected share of the system, starting with Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing a Professional Services Agreement with MaintStar, Inc. for permitting software hosting, upgrades, and maintenance.

REPORT to the MAYOR and MEMBERS of the CITY COUNCIL
From the CITY MANAGER
DATE: June 11, 2024
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A TWO-YEAR

PROFRESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

BETWEEN CITY OF LA MESA AND HDL COMPANIES

FOR CANNABIS ON-SITE MONITORING AND

COMPLIANCE SERVICES
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Community Development
SUMMARY:

Issues:

Should the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing an agreement between the City of La Mesa and HdL Companies to continue Cannabis On-Site Monitoring and Compliance Services?
Recommendation:

Staff recommends that City Council adopt a resolution authorizing an agreement between the City of La Mesa and HdL Companies for Cannabis On-Site Monitoring and Compliance Services.

Fiscal Impact:
$40,000 has been budgeted in the Planning Specialized and Professional Services account for FY2024-25 for compliance monitoring services. Each Cannabis Business pays an annual inspection fee pursuant to the fee schedule of $2,737, which covers the costs of monitoring and compliance services.

City’s Strategic Goals:
 Maintain a community where residents and visitors feel safe.

Page 28 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11,2024
Page: 2 of 4
 Ensure a strong financial outlook through careful planning, sustainable service levels, and fiscal sustainability.

BACKGROUND:

In November 2016, California voters approved Proposition 64, also known as the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA), requiring a State license to engage in commercial non-medical marijuana activities. This proposition legalized recreational use of marijuana by adults in California. AUMA, however, provides that local jurisdictions may adopt and enforce local ordinances that regulate local zoning and land use requirements, and other requirements deemed necessary to reduce potential impacts associated with retail marijuana use. In the same election, voters in the City of La Mesa passed Measure U authorizing and regulating by Conditional Use Permit medical marijuana dispensaries, and the cultivating and manufacturing of medical marijuana.

On November 6, 2018, La Mesa voters approved a cannabis business tax (Measure V) by 73.4 percent, which authorized the establishment and implementation of a cannabis business tax on all cannabis businesses operating in the City of La Mesa. This measure established the business categories to be taxed and the initial and maximum tax rates to be imposed. Included in the approved ordinance was the authorization to inspect any location where commercial cannabis (both medicinal and adult-use) business is conducted and to audit and examine all books and records of those engaged in cannabis businesses.

Upon implementation of the Cannabis compliance and monitoring, HdL Companies was considered to have submitted the best proposal through RFP (Request For Proposals) 19-15 for Cannabis Monitoring and Compliance Services, which was published on January 9, 2019. On May 28, 2019, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2019-047 awarding a professional services agreement between the City of La Mesa and HdL Companies for Cannabis On-Site Monitoring, Business Tax Audit and Compliance Services. The agreement was then executed on November 1, 2019, and is set to expire on June 30, 2024. This request is to authorize an additional two-year agreement with HDL.

DISCUSSION:

Annual regulatory compliance inspections to determine compliance with State and/or local laws are required on all permitted cannabis businesses in the City of La Mesa. The annual inspections are conducted by HdL Companies. To ensure continued compliance with State and/or local laws, the City aims to continue utilizing HdL Companies to perform these annual compliance inspections for all permitted cannabis businesses. The City’s Purchasing Officer may waive competitive bidding if the City Council by resolution

Page 29 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11,2024
Page: 3 of 4
determines that professional, specialized or consulting services may be provided by firms who have performed similar or equal satisfactory work previously for the city on the same scope of work, program or project area, per La Mesa Municipal Code Section

2.40.070(a)(6). Under these facts, the circumstances are that HdL Companies can continue to provide Cannabis on-site monitoring and compliance services; and, as such, staff recommends that it is in the best interests of the City to enter into a contract without a formal bidding process.

HdL will continue to provide all of the following services:
 Notifying permittee of pending inspection
 On-site inspection to ensure that each business complies with all State and local laws and regulatory protocols for all of the following:
o Inventory management
o Cash handling procedures
o Access control
o Video surveillance
o Product safety
o Alarm system maintenance and safety
o Lock standards
o Packaging and labeling
o Waste management
o Transportation documentation
o Surveillance equipment maintenance
o Occupational badges
o Business records
o Other items as necessary to ensure compliance with laws  Preparation of a draft report detailing the findings of the inspection and providing recommendations for improvement where needed. If the inspection identifies any violations of law or other non-compliance issues, then HdL will prepare a notice to comply as an included part of the report.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that City Council adopt a resolution authorizing a two-year agreement between the City of La Mesa and HdL Companies for Cannabis On-Site Monitoring and Compliance Services.

REPORT to the MAYOR and MEMBERS of the CITY COUNCIL
From the CITY MANAGER
DATE: June 11, 2024
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION TO AWARD THE PURCHASE OF A 2024
FORD F150 LIGHTNING TO SEDANO FORD
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Police
SUMMARY:

Issues:

Should the City Council adopt a resolution to award the purchase of a 2024 Ford F150 Lightning to Sedano Ford?
Recommendation:

The City Council adopt a resolution to award the purchase of a 2024 Ford F150 Lightning to Sedano Ford.

Fiscal Impact:

The quoted cost is $59,499.75. The cost of the vehicle is funded with American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) monies in account 215-64500-000-215012, which will be transferred to the Community Resources Vehicle Replacement account 101- 65850-207-000000. The City Council previously approved $60,000 for a HOME Program vehicle.

City’s Strategic Goals:
 Maintain a community where residents and visitors feel safe.

Climate Action Plan Reduction Strategy:
 T-6 Municipal Fleet – Promote efforts that transition municipal vehicle fleet from gasoline- and diesel-powered vehicles to alternative-fuel or lowemissions vehicles.

BACKGROUND:

The La Mesa Police Department is expanding the Homeless Outreach and Mobile Engagement (HOME) Team by an additional two outreach workers. This requires the addition of another vehicle for field use and transportation assistance.

As part of the City’s Climate Action Plan Reduction Strategy, the staff determined that a Ford F150 Lightning electric vehicle was a suitable choice for the HOME Team based on its performance, range, and cost.

DISCUSSION:

The City received quotes on in-stock or in-transit vehicles from Sedano Ford in La Mesa and Kearny Mesa Ford for the F150 Lightning and Sedano Ford was the lowest at $59,499.75, including taxes and fees.

The City’s Purchasing Officer may waive competitive bidding when the City Council by resolution determines that due to special circumstances, it is in the City's best interest to purchase a commodity without compliance with the bidding procedure, per La Mesa Municipal Code Section 2.40.070(a)(7). Purchasing a Ford F150 Lightning will help the City meet its Climate Action Plan goals while also maintaining consistency with the current fleet. By purchasing from local dealers instead of using a formal bid process, the City can support the local economy while securing the vehicle more quickly and from an experienced and reliable vendor in government/commercial sales.

Under these circumstances, Sedano Ford can provide the needed vehicle quickly and at a reasonable cost while keeping the purchase within the local economy; and, as such, staff recommends that it is in the best interests of the City to enter into a contract for the purchase a 2024 Ford F150 Lightning without a formal bidding process.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution to award the purchase of a 2024 Ford F150 Lightning to Sedano Ford.

Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 2 of 2
BACKGROUND:

The City of La Mesa has participated with a consortium of local municipalities to help reduce the cost of maintenance and repairs to the street light system. By participating in the consortium with cities like El Cajon, Lemon Grove, and Santee, the City of La Mesa can take advantage of favorable labor rates to maximize the use of funds budgeted for this area of Public Works.

On June 13, 2023, the City Council awarded a street light maintenance contract to Southwest Signal Service, Inc. for FY24. Included in the award was an option to renew the contract up to four, one-year terms with satisfactory performance.

DISCUSSION:

Southwest Signal Service, Inc. has completed the first year of the street light repair contract to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Southwest Signal Service, Inc. is requesting a unit price increase for FY25 of 3.1% to match the San Diego area Urban Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) from February 2024.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the first renewal option of the annual contract including CPI increase for Street Light Maintenance and Emergency Repairs to Southwest Signal Service, Inc. in the amount of $87,635.

 Climate Action Plan Reduction Strategy:

T-2 Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Program (Vision Zero) – Advance community-wide active transportation through safety programs, public engagement, education, and advocacy.

BACKGROUND:

On April 14, 2020 the City Council directed staff to reprogram certain pedestrian signal crossing at high-traffic intersections to act automatically thereby not requiring touch activation due to pandemic concerns. The following high-traffic/volume intersections were selected for automatic pedestrian recall:

1. Spring Street at La Mesa Boulevard

2. Spring Street at Lemon Avenue

3. Grossmont Center Drive at Healthcare Drive

4. Grossmont Center Drive at Center Drive

5. University Avenue at La Mesa Boulevard/Memorial Drive On, March 14, 2023, the City Council terminated the local COVID-19 emergency and requested a recommendation from Staff on which five traffic signals should remain on automatic pedestrian recall.

DISCUSSION:

Staff re-evaluated the five intersections based on available traffic safety data, the Local Road Safety Plan, and Vision Zero goals related to the safety of vulnerable road users, and recommends that the five listed intersections should be the intersections that continue functioning with automated pedestrian recall.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the five referenced intersections function with automated pedestrian recall signals.

TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT AND

THE LA MESA BOULEVARD COMPLETE STREETS

DESIGN PROJECT, AND IF AWARDED, ACCEPTING

AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS FOR THE PROJECTS
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUMMARY:

Issues:

Should the City Council authorize the filing of two grant applications for the Active Transportation Program (ATP); one for the Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive Active Transportation Improvements Project and one for the La Mesa Boulevard Complete Streets Design Project; accepting and appropriating funds if awarded; and appointing the City Manager, or designee, to execute all agreements and any amendments? Recommendation:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution to authorize the filing of two grant applications for the Active Transportation Program (ATP) for the Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive Active Transportation Improvements Project and the La Mesa Boulevard Complete Streets Design Project; accepting and appropriating funds if awarded; and appointing the City Manager, or designee, to execute all agreements and any amendments.

Fiscal Impact:

The total estimated cost for design and construction for the Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive Active Transportation Improvements Project is $2,600,000, and the total estimated cost for design for the La Mesa Boulevard Complete Streets Design

Page 61 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 2 of 3
Project is $2,800,000. The percentage of local match required by the ATP grant will be determined upon award, but is anticipated to be no more than 20%; $520,000 for the Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive Active Transportation Improvements Project and $560,000 for the La Mesa Boulevard Complete Streets, Segment 1 Project. The City match costs for the projects will be available in the HUTA and TransNet funding.

City’s Strategic Goals:
 Invest in infrastructure to serve the needs of the community.  Maintain a community where residents and visitors feel safe.  Promote a high quality of life that current and future generations can afford to call home.

Climate Action Plan Reduction Strategy:
 T-1 Bicycle and Pedestrian Infrastructure – Encourage active transportation options through planning and development of safe active transportation infrastructure and facilities in the City.

BACKGROUND:

On September 26, 2013, the Governor signed legislation creating the Active Transportation Program (ATP) through Senate Bill 99, Chapter 359 and Assembly Bill 101, Chapter 354. The intent of the program is to encourage the use of active modes of transportation such as walking and bicycling.

The California Transportation Commission (CTC) announced the ATP Cycle 7 Call for Projects on March 21, 2024. Cycle 7 is expected to include Federal, State SB1, and State Highway Account (SHA) funding. The funding/programming years include Fiscal Years 2025/26, 2026/27, 2027/28, and 2028/29.

The ATP is a consolidated program of former federal and state transportation programs, including the Transportation Alternatives Program, Bicycle Transportation Account, and State Safe Routes to School (SR2S). The program is administered by the CTC and grant awards will be announced in December 2024. The intent of the provided resolutions is to authorize application submittal for both projects.

DISCUSSION:

The City of La Mesa’s bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure has benefited from federal, state, and local grant programs on many occasions over the past decade. Most recently, construction was completed for the West La Mesa Ped and Bike Project, North Spring Street Ped and Bike Phase 1 Project with University Avenue Pedestrian and Bicycle Project and North Spring Street Phase 2A and 2B Projects having been awarded construction projects.

Staff conducted a planning study of eight street segments as part of the La Mesa Bike and Sidewalk Project. The improvements proposed on the Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive street segments received substantial community support. Additionally, portions of Lemon Avenue and Jackson Drive are proposed to be designated as safety corridors based on recent community input and interest due to their proximity to schools and public parks.

The projects align with La Mesa’s adopted Bicycle Facilities and Alternative Transportation Plan, Sidewalk Master Plan, and General Plan. Additionally, the projects proposed in the grant applications are in line with three of the activities of the Vision Zero Policy: 1) Prioritize Capital Improvement Projects and Maintenance; 2) Utilize Safe and Complete Streets Design Criteria; and 3) Consider Collision Data in Grant Applications.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolutions to authorize the filing of two grant applications for the ATP Program.

Page 68 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 2 of 3
BACKGROUND:

Although many large cities maintain traffic signals with their own staff, smaller cities find it more economical to join forces and contract for traffic signal maintenance services together. Contractor bid prices for larger quantities of work are considerably less than for smaller jobs, due to the economy of scale. In addition, traffic signal maintenance requires a highly specialized technical knowledge and equipment that is not practical to maintain for smaller cities that have a limited quantity of work.

For these reasons, the cities of La Mesa, El Cajon, Lemon Grove and Santee continue to join forces and contract traffic signal maintenance services together since the year 2000.

These contracts have had an initial contract period of one-year with options for renewals.

DISCUSSION:

The scope of work described in the traffic signal maintenance contract includes monthly, quarterly, and bi-annual maintenance items which must be checked off on a maintenance form and kept as a record in the traffic signal cabinet. Some examples of the maintenance items include checking the signal lights, ensuring the pedestrian push buttons and signals are working properly, and checking vehicle detection. Extra work items include replacing damaged equipment from vehicle knock downs and upgrading signal equipment.

The current contract for traffic signal maintenance expires on June 30, 2024. A new combined solicitation for traffic signal maintenance, emergency repairs, and related construction services was advertised by the City of El Cajon, the lead agency. This solicitation included the anticipated work for the City of La Mesa.

Three bids were received and opened on April 15, 2024, by the City of El Cajon. The following bids are shown as inclusive for all four participating cities:

Bidder Bid Amount

Should Contractor maintain insurance with broader coverage and/or limits of liability greater than those shown above, City requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or the higher limits of liability maintained by Contractor. Any available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be available to City.

Contractor shall be responsible for payment of any deductibles contained in any insurance policies required hereunder and Contractor shall also be responsible for payment of any selfinsured retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to, and approved by, the City Manager or his/her designee. At the option of the City Manager or his/her designee, either: (i) the insurer shall reduce or eliminate such deductibles or self-insured retentions as respects to City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers: or (ii) Contractor shall provide a financial guarantee, satisfactory to City Manager or his/her designee, guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses. At no time shall City be responsible for the payment of any deductibles or self-insured retentions.

All policies of insurance required hereunder shall be endorsed to provide that the coverage shall not be cancelled, non-renewed, reduced in coverage or in limits except after 30 calendar day written notice has been given to City. Upon issuance by the insurer, broker, or agent of a notice of cancellation, non-renewal, or reduction in coverage or in limits, Contractor shall furnish City with a new certificate and applicable endorsements for such policy(ies). In the event any policy is due to expire during the work to be performed for City, Contractor shall provide a new

Page 79 of 146 ends

- 6 -
certificate, and applicable endorsements, evidencing renewal of such policy not less than 15 calendar days prior to the expiration date of the expiring policy.

The General Liability and Automobile Liability insurance policies shall be written on an occurrence form and shall name City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers as an additional insured. Such policy(ies) of insurance shall be endorsed so Contractor’s insurance shall be primary and no contribution shall be required of City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded to City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers. The Workers’ Compensation insurance policy shall contain a waiver of subrogation as to City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers.

If the Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) insurance policy is written on a claims-made coverage form:
(i)The retroactive date must be shown, and must be before the effective date of this Agreement or the commencement of work by Contractor.
(ii) Insurance must be maintained and evidence of insurance must be provided for at least 5 years after completion of the work or termination of the Agreement, whichever first occurs.
(iii) If coverage is canceled or non-renewed, and not replaced with another claims-made policy form with a retroactive date prior to the effective date of the Agreement, or work commencement date, Contractor must purchase extended reporting period coverage for a minimum of 5 years after completion of the work or termination of the Agreement, whichever first occurs.
(iv) A copy of the claims reporting requirements must be submitted to City for review. (v) These requirements shall survive expiration or termination of the Agreement.

Contractor shall furnish City with all certificate(s) and applicable endorsements effecting coverage required hereunder. All certificates and applicable endorsements are to be received by City and approved by City Manager or his/her designee prior to City’s execution of the Agreement and before work commences. Upon request of City, Contractor shall immediately furnish City with a complete copy of any insurance policy required under this Agreement, including all endorsements, with said copy certified by the underwriter to be a true and correct copy of the original policy. This requirement shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.

If at any time during the life of this Agreement or any extension, Contractor or any of its subcontractors fail to maintain any required insurance in full force and effect, all work under this Agreement shall be discontinued immediately, and all payments due or that become due to Contractor shall be withheld until notice is received by City that the required insurance has been restored to full force and effect and that the premiums therefore have been paid for a period satisfactory to City. Any failure to maintain the required insurance shall be sufficient cause for

Page 80 of 146 ends

- 7 -
City to terminate this Agreement. No action taken by City hereunder shall in any way relieve Contractor of its responsibilities under this Agreement.

The fact that insurance is obtained by Contractor shall not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of Contractor, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this Agreement. The duty to indemnify City and its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by Contractor. Approval or purchase of any insurance contracts or policies shall in no way relieve from liability nor limit the liability of Contractor, its principals, officers, employees, agents, persons under the supervision of Contractor, vendors, suppliers, invitees, Contractors, subcontractors, or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.

If Contractor should subcontract all or any portion of the services to be performed under this Agreement, Contractor shall require each subcontractor to provide insurance protection in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers in accordance with the terms of each of the preceding paragraphs, except that the subcontractors' certificates and endorsements shall be on file with Contractor and City prior to the commencement of any work by the subcontractor.

SECTION 16: OWNERSHIP OF WORK

SECTION 17: ASSIGNABILITY

In no event shall any contractual relation be created between any third party and the City without prior written consent of the City. Consent to one assignment shall not be deemed to be consent to any subsequent assignment.

SECTION 18: AMENDMENTS
This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter herein. There are no other agreements, expressed or implied, oral or written, except as set forth herein. This Agreement may be amended upon written mutual consent of both parties hereto.

REPORT to the MAYOR and MEMBERS of the CITY COUNCIL
From the CITY MANAGER
DATE: June 11, 2024
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE ADDING A NEW SECTION 12.64.025

TO THE LA MESA MUNICIPAL CODE TO DESIGNATE

A SAFETY CORRIDOR PURSUANT TO ASSEMBLY
BILL 43 (AB 43)
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Public Works
SUMMARY:

Issues:

Should the City Council add Section 12.64.025 to the La Mesa Municipal Code to designate Lemon Avenue from Garfield Street to Bancroft Drive as an AB 43 Safety Corridor in the City of La Mesa?
Recommendation:

Add a new Section 12.64.025 to the La Mesa Municipal Code to designate Lemon Avenue from Garfield Street to Bancroft Drive as an AB 43 Safety Corridor in the City of La Mesa.

Fiscal Impact:

The cost to change the both the speed limit signs and legends should be less than $1,000 per location, and would be covered by the Public Works Traffic Operations maintenance budget.

City’s Strategic Goals:
 Invest in infrastructure to serve the needs of the community.

Environmental Review:

Page 97 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 2 of 4
This project is categorically exempt from the environmental review process under Section 15301 Class 1 (c) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, which exempts projects which involve negligible or no expansion of existing highways and streets, sidewalks, gutters, bicycle and pedestrian trails, and similar facilities.

Climate Action Plan Reduction Strategy:
 T-2 Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Program (Vision Zero) – Advance community-wide active transportation through safety programs, public engagement, education, and advocacy.

BACKGROUND:

The California State Legislature set in place the regulations for California speed limits and the California Vehicle Code (CVC) places these regulations into language used primarily for enforcement purposes. Various jurisdictions have responsibility for roadways throughout California, including the responsibility to set speed limits on these roadways according to the standards and procedures established by Caltrans. The guidelines from the 2014 California Manual for Setting Speed Limits published by Caltrans on May 9, 2014 are used in this study. These guidelines help in establishing speed limits that are uniform throughout the state and avoid influence from political pressure or emotional perceptions. CVC Section 40802 requires that an Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS) for speed limits should be conducted at least once every 5, 7 or 10 years based on established criteria.

Under current state statute provisions, state and local agencies re-evaluate non-statutory speed limits on their street segments that have undergone a significant change in roadway characteristics or surrounding land uses since the speed limits were last reviewed. Speed limits are established primarily for protecting the public from the behavior of reckless, unreliable, or dangerous drivers. Speed limits are generally established at or near the 85th percentile speed. The 85th percentile speed, also referred to as the critical speed, is defined as the speed at or below which 85 percent of traffic is moving in free flow conditions. Speed limits established on this basis conform to the consensus of those who drive on the roadways as to what speed is reasonable and safe under normal driving conditions.

The California Legislature passed AB 43 in September 2021, which grants the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and local authorities greater flexibility in setting speed limits based on recommendations the Zero Traffic Fatality Task Force (Task Force) made in January 2020. The provisions of the legislation allow Caltrans and local authorities to further reduce the speed limit by an additional five miles per hour for either of the following reasons:

Page 98 of 146 ends

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 3 of 4
 The portion of a roadway has been designated as a safety corridor. A local authority shall not deem more than one-fifth of their streets as safety corridors.  The portion of a roadway is adjacent to any land or facility that generates high concentrations of bicyclists or pedestrians, especially those from vulnerable groups such as children, seniors, persons with disabilities, and the unhoused.

A portion of Lemon Avenue from Garfield Street to Bancroft Drive was selected for designation as a safety corridor due to its proximity to an elementary school, where an additional reduction in the speed limit could better protect vulnerable road/pedestrian users like children.

Staff is developing a plan for identifying future safety corridor locations such as around schools, parks, and areas of heavy pedestrian and bicycle use. When these locations are identified and the requisite study performed as described above, the locations will be presented to the Mobility Commission and ultimately to the City Council.

DISCUSSION:

According to AB 43, local authorities may not lower a speed limit as authorized by the statute until June 30, 2024, or until the Judicial Council has developed an online tool for adjudicating infraction violations statewide as specified in Article 7 (commencing with Section 68645) of Chapter 2 of Title 8 of the Government Code, whichever is sooner. In recent correspondence, a legislative advocate for the Judicial Council confirmed they are still in the process of implementing a statewide online tool.

Lemon Avenue is currently posted at 35mph, and with the safety corridor designation, the speed limit will be lowered and posted to 30 mph.

On May 1, 2024, the La Mesa Mobility Commission approved a recommendation amending chapter 12.64 of the La Mesa Municipal Code to add a new section 12.64.025 and designating Lemon Avenue between Garfield Street to Bancroft Drive as a safety corridor.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that City Council add a new section 12.64.025 to the La Mesa Municipal Code to read as follows:
“Decrease of state law maximum speed for a safety corridor.

2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget Update

June 11, 2024
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council:

On August 8, 2023, the City Council approved the City of La Mesa’s 2023-2025 Biennial Budget. Subsequent to adoption of the spending plan for fiscal years 2024-2025, the City Council approved changes to projects and benefits that reflect changes in both revenues and expenditures that are listed in the proposed amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget.

The proposed amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget considers the revised estimates of revenues and operating expenditures based on the most current information available and input from the various departments. The proposed budget includes additional positions recommended by the Chief of Police and City manager based on the recent police department staffing and resources analysis. Also included are new benefit contributions that reflect the actual contribution rates and allow the City to be more competitive in the employee market. Further details on revenues, expenditures, and staffing levels and costs are provided below.

General Fund
Revenues
Proposed General Fund revenues in the amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget increase $379,390 more than the original approved 2023-2025 Biennial Budget.

Additional revenue included tobacco licensing fees as well as increases in franchise fees, permits and inspections.

Expenditures
Proposed changes to expenditures include items that will be carried forward from the FY24 budget as well as some additions based on current needs of the City. Carry forward amounts of $1.1 million are necessary projects that were not be completed in FY24.

These items include planning zoning code updates, fleet assessment, and police station equipment. New items include the first phase of the City’s new phone system. Support for the current phone system is eliminated by the vendor and will be upgrading to a Voice over Internet Protocol (VIOP) system that will provide improved functionality and communication capability to staff. New sewer and road maintenance activity, funding for the Downtown Village Specific Plan, and recently negotiated employee benefits are some of the additional proposed changes to the FY25 budget.

City of La Mesa
2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget Update
1-2
Salaries and Benefits
The amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget includes an overall increase of $3.6 million in combined salaries and benefits for all funds. These changes reflect negotiated salary and benefit increases, previously approved changes to positions, new requests with the current Mid-Biennium Budget update and increases in PERS, and workman’s compensation.

The City’s standard practice is to evaluate positions as they become vacant to ensure they are the most efficient use of city resources in meeting new mandates and programs and increasing demands for city services. Through this process the following new positions are being requested:
• Management Analyst (Police)
• Professional Standards Unit Coordinator (Police)
• Volunteer Coordinator (Police)
• Community Services Officer (Police)
• Police Dispatcher (Police)
• Student Management Fellow (City Manager’s Office)
Also included in the Mid-Biennium Budget are new negotiated benefits for staff including an increase in their flex net spending account and a 457/Roth match up to $1,500 per year.

The FY 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget includes an overall net increase of six full-time positions to 278 authorized full-time positions.

Other Operating Expenditures
The proposed amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget includes increases in General Fund operating expenses of $3,643,395, of which $100,786 is attributed to personal services such as insurance and surety bonds, $1,254,810 for professional and specialized services, $203,340 for equipment replacement, and $1,639,129 in computer and technology upgrades and replacement. Many of these items are necessary carryforward appropriations from the 2023-2024 Budget for items that were not completed during the fiscal year, while others are increases in previously budgeted items or new to the 2024-2025 budget year.

City of La Mesa
2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget Update
1-3
Significant items proposed in the 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget include:
• Administrative Services: Requests for increases in previously budgeted items include increases in property and earthquake insurance and professional services.

Requests include carry-forward funds for the Downtown Village specific plan, City Manager’s Office lobby renovations, and employee benefits. • Fire: Additional funds include Heartland Communications facility lease, Nurse Navigator program share, computer upgrades and contract plan check services.

The first year Nurse Navigator pilot program by the City of El Cajon through Heartland Communications has been extremely successful at deferring 911 calls away from emergency medical personnel and equipment and hospitals. So, successful that Sharp Grossmont Hospital and the Grossmont Healthcare District have offered to substantially fund the program’s expansion to all Heartland Communications jurisdictions. Thereby reducing’s La Mesa’s annual contribution to a mere $14,000.
• Police: New requests include a law enforcement wellness program, County radio services agreement, and support for unmanned law enforcement response programs.
• Public Works: Funds are requested to increase the previously approved budget for the annual fleet assessment, traffic engineering services, and as needed testing and surveying.
• Public safety remains the General Fund’s largest expenditure with Police (#1) and Fire (#2) combined accounting for approximately 61 percent of total expenditures. Public Works is third at eighteen percent. Combined, these three departments account for roughly 80 percent of the total General Fund expenditure budget. These percentages remain fairly consistent with prior years’ budgets.

Budgeted Pension Expense
Unfunded pension liability will remain the same and is budgeted at $9 million with the use of the City’s Section Pension 115 Trust Fund is proposed for the balance. The total pension payment for FY25 is $11,375,054. A withdrawal of $2,375,054 will be deducted from the 115 Trust to cover the balance of the UAL payment.

Interfund Transfers
The proposed 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget includes revised transfers in to the General Fund from other funds of $3,090,200 and transfers out of the General Fund to other funds in the amount of $2,448,450, contributing a net $641,750 in to the General Fund.

General Fund Reserves
In the proposed 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget expenditures exceed revenues by approximately $8.4 million. This was an expected budget forecast in the 10-year financial forecast with employee salary and benefit costs, inflationary increases, and the increases in insurance, utilities and professional services. The ending General Fund reserves for 2024-2025 are estimated to be $59.9 million.

The projected ending reserves meets the Council’s General Fund Reserve Policy with a target budgetary “Rainy Day” reserve of 15 percent and a target cash flow reserve of 25 percent.

Capital Improvement Program
The City Council adopted the 2023-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as part of the overall 2023-2025 Biennial Budget. In addition to the new projects previously included in the original CIP budget, the proposed amended 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget includes the additional requested Capital Improvement Project appropriations.

Proposed additions to the FY25 CIP include $100,000 for a space needs analysis for City Hall based on the recommendations from the Civic Center subcommittee.

Conclusion
The 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget Update is prepared in accordance with the City Council’s budget policies and adopted goals based on the recent financial forecast. This Mid-Biennium Budget update also reflects the Council’s strategic directions and the Council’s Targets for Action.

I would like to thank the City Council, Senior Management, and their staff for their assistance and support in the development of this 2024-2025 Mid-Biennium Budget Update.

REPORT to the MAYOR and MEMBERS of the CITY COUNCIL
From the CITY MANAGER
DATE: June 11, 2024
SUBJECT: Appropriations Limit
ISSUING DEPARTMENT: Finance
SUMMARY:

Issues:

Should the City Council adopt the attached resolution to (1) establish the Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2024, and (2) select the Annual Adjustment Factors used to calculate the Appropriations Limit? Recommendation:

That the City Council adopt a resolution pursuant to Propositions 4 and 111, establishing the Appropriations Limit for fiscal year 2023-2024 and selecting the growth in the new Non-Residential Construction in the City of La Mesa, and the population growth in the City of La Mesa as the annual adjustment factors used to compute the Appropriations Limit.

Fiscal Impact:

The City's "Appropriations Subject to the Limit" for fiscal year 2023-2024 is detailed in Schedule C. The actual difference between the City's "Appropriations Subject to the Limit" and the amount permitted by Proposition 4 will depend on actual revenues received. Based upon projections, there will be no fiscal impact to the City with respect to its 2023-2024 Appropriations Limit.

Report to Mayor and Councilmembers
Date: June 11, 2024
Page: 2 of 4
City’s Strategic Goals:
 Ensure a strong financial outlook through careful planning, sustainable service levels, and fiscal sustainability.

BACKGROUND:

The Gann Initiative (Proposition 4) was passed on November 6, 1979 by the voters of California and became a constitutional amendment that limited the annual growth of State and local government budgets. The amendment established fiscal year 1978-79 as the base year and allowed the base amount to increase in future years by two factors: (1) the percentage of growth in population, and (2) the lower of the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) or the percentage change in the California Per Capita Personal Income (CPCI) index. These annual adjustment factors were provided by the State Department of Finance and were used to calculate the Appropriations Limit for the City of La Mesa for each fiscal year through 1989-90.

Beginning with the fiscal year 1990-91, the annual adjustment factors used to calculate the City's Appropriations Limit were modified by the passage of Proposition 111.

Proposition 111 was approved by California voters on June 5, 1990. Instead of using the lesser of the CPI or CPCI, the City may now choose:

The growth in the California Per Capita Personal Income (CPCI) or, The growth in the non-residential assessed valuation due to the new construction within the City AND, either
The population growth within the County of San Diego or, The population growth within the City of La Mesa
DISCUSSION:

By resolution, the City Council must select the adjustment factors to be used. The City Council has historically chosen the higher adjustment factor. In 2023-2024, staff used growth in the new Non-Residential Construction, 3.57%, as the Price Factor; and growth in the City of La Mesa population, -0.22%, as the Population Factor.

Price Factor
A. Percent growth in State per Capita Personal Income
(CPCI): 4.44%
B. Percentage of New Non-Residential Construction 24.54%

Assessed Valuation to the City’s total change in
Assessed Valuation:

Population Factor
A. Percent Growth in San Diego County Population 0.02%
B. Percent Growth in City of La Mesa Population: -0.20% It should be noted that only appropriations financed from "Proceeds of Taxes" are subject to the Appropriations Limit. "Proceeds of Taxes" includes such revenue as property taxes, sales and use taxes, transient occupancy taxes, and interest earned on taxes. Revenues from other sources such as fees, charges, and Federal grants are considered "Nonproceeds of Taxes" and are not subject to the Appropriations Limit.

As detailed in Schedule C, the City of La Mesa's fiscal year 2023-2024 Appropriations Limit of $1,397,290,800 is well above the amount subject to the limit of $55,712,075.

The dramatic increase in the City's yearly Appropriations Limit since FY 1989-90 is the cumulative effect of implementing the revised adjustment factors allowed by Proposition 111. The Appropriations Limit for FY 2023- 2024 increased from the previous year due to the selection of the growth in the new Non-Residential Construction (24.54%) and the County of San Diego’s population growth factor (0.02%).

As required by SB 813, passed by the State Legislature in 1987, the Appropriations Limit and the "Appropriations Subject to the Limit" are to be included in the annual budget adopted by the City Council. Upon Council approval, the fiscal year 2023-2024 Appropriations Limit and the "Appropriations Subject to the Limit" will appear in the final budget document.

CONCLUSION:

Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution pursuant to Propositions 4 and 111, establishing the Appropriations Limit for fiscal year 2023-2024 and selecting and selecting (1) growth in new Non-Residential Construction, and (2) the population growth in the City of La Mesa, as the annual adjustment factors used to compute the Appropriations Limit.
