TITLE: Shea Homes Annexation Fees for Tentative Tract Map 3506 MEETING DATE: August 13, 2025
PREPARED BY: Rochelle Henson, Principal Planner

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution establishing the annexation fee for Tentative Tract Map 3506 (known as the Rivani Property) for Shea Homes.

BACKGROUND
On January 13, 2021, the Mountain House Community Services District Board of Directors approved a resolution (Attachment A) requesting the San Joaquin Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) to initiate proceedings for the incorporation of Mountain House. The incorporation boundary (Attachment B) included the Rivani Property (Tentative Tract Map 3506).

LAFCo approved the incorporation/reorganization on September 14, 2023 (Attachment C), and the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution directing the Registrar of Voters to conduct the incorporation/reorganization election on November 7, 2023. The election (Attachment D) was held in March 2024, and Mountain House officially became a city on July 1, 2024.

Although the Rivani Property was included in the incorporation boundary, it had not previously been annexed into Mountain House. As a condition of incorporation, the Community Services District and LAFCo agreed that the City could impose an annexation fee at the time the property owner seeks their first project approval, whether it is discretionary (an approval where the City has the ability to evaluate and condition the project, such as a subdivision map or use permit) or nondiscretionary (an approval that must be granted if it meets all established requirements, such as a building permit). This ensures the annexation fee is collected before any development activity moves forward.

Requirement of Annexation Fees
Annexation fees make sure that newly annexed properties pay their fair share of the costs of infrastructure, facilities, and programs that benefit them. This requirement comes from Assembly Bill (AB) 1600, which establishes the “legal nexus” principle, meaning the fee must be directly related to the benefits received. The annexation fee:
· Reimburses prior developers who oversized infrastructure (roads, utilities, etc.) to serve future areas such as Rivani.
· Helps fund community facilities, transportation improvements, and utility systems that provide a benefit to the annexed property.

AGENDA ITEM 7.4
Without this fee, the cost of past and future improvements would be unfairly carried by existing property owners and developers who already paid into the system.

The authority for this process comes from Annexation Fee Ordinance MH-3-1404, adopted by the San Joaquin County Board of Supervisors on August 22, 2000, when acting as the governing body of the Community Services District.

DISCUSSION
Annexation Fee Calculation
The City retained Harris & Associates to conduct the legal nexus analysis and calculate the annexation fee.

Their work included:
· Reviewing community facilities, transportation, and utility infrastructure built to date. · Applying the provisions of the City's Community Facilities Fee (CFF) and Transportation Improvement Fee (TIF) ordinances.
· Identifying the Rivani Property’s proportional “fair share” of prior infrastructure costs.

This analysis resulted in a final annexation fee of $3,937,599.21, which will be required to be paid by Shea Homes. A detailed breakdown of this calculation, including the fee categories, responsible developers (including the City), and proportional shares, is provided in the table that follows and Annexation Fee Resolution (Attachment E).

The annexation fee consists of:

1. Creditable/Reimbursable Portion – Payable to developers (or the City) who advanced funds for oversizing infrastructure, in alignment with the CFF and TIF programs.

2. Non-Reimbursable Portion – A one-time payment to cover infrastructure costs above fee program caps.

AGENDA ITEM 7.4
Waivers or Deferrals
Entities entitled to annexation fee proceeds may waive or defer their share. The resolution allows the City Manager, with confirmation from the City Attorney, to adjust Shea Homes’ payment if valid proof of such a waiver or deferral is provided.

FISCAL IMPACT
Calculating annexation fees is complex and requires specialized technical and legal support. The CFF and TIF programs require that 3% of all CFF and TIF fees collected be set aside for City administration of the program. This helps offset City costs for program updates and fee calculations. In addition, developers reimburse the City for a portion of consultant and legal costs related to their projects.

STRATEGIC PLAN
Approving this annexation fee supports the City’s 2025 Strategic Plan by:
· Ensuring that infrastructure and community facility costs are equitably shared by new development.
· Strengthening processes for planning, annexation, and entitlement review.

AGENDA ITEM 7.4
· Providing transparent, predictable fee schedules for the development community.

ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
The City Manager will require Shea Homes to deposit the annexation fee into a designated account, and will disburse payments to entitled parties in accordance with the resolution.

AGENDA ITEM 7.4
TITLE: Approval of Resolution Adopting a Nonprofit Advertising and Donation Bin Policy Allowing Nonprofit Organizations to Promote their Programs and Initiatives in Public Areas of Town Hall and City Spaces
MEETING DATE: August 13, 2025
PREPARED BY: Laura Johnston, Recreation Manager

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Council adopt a resolution approving the Nonprofit Advertising and Donation Bin Policy allowing nonprofits to promote their programs and initiatives, including free advertising and placement of donation bins, while ensuring alignment with city’s mission, safety, and operational standards.

BACKGROUND
The Parks and Recreation Department frequently receives inquiries from local nonprofit organizations seeking to promote their events, programs and fundraising efforts to the community with either posting their flyers and posters or by displaying their graphics on the closed-circuit displays. In addition, some organizations have expressed interest in placing donation bins in public areas of Town Hall and other city spaces to collect items such as toys, clothing, food, or school supplies for those in need.

Currently, the City has no formal policy governing how such requests are handled. Without clear guidelines, staff have addressed requests on a case-by-case basis, which can lead to inconsistent decisions and confusion among applicants.

DISCUSSION
The proposed Nonprofit Advertising & Donation Bin Policy establishes a clear process and eligibility requirements for nonprofits to post advertisements and install donation bins at City Hall.

Key elements of the proposed policy include:
· Eligibility is limited to sanctioned nonprofit organizations with a mission that benefits the community.
· Free advertising space on designated display areas inside Town Hall. · Donation bin placement in pre-approved, safe, and accessible areas for a limited period. · Application process requiring advance submission and review by City staff. · Maintenance responsibility placed on the nonprofit for keeping displays and bins clean and orderly.
· City discretion to approve, deny, or remove materials at any time.

AGENDA ITEM 7.5
This policy balances the City’s desire to support local nonprofits with the need to maintain safety, operational efficiency, and neutrality in public facilities.

Staff recommends that the City Council Adopt the “Nonprofit Advertising & Donation Bin Policy” as presented, authorizing City staff to implement the program and manage requests in accordance with the policy guidelines.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no anticipated fiscal impact to the City. Staff time for application review and coordination is expected to be minimal and absorbed within existing workloads.

STRATEGIC PLAN
Establishment of a Nonprofit Advertising and Donation Bin Policy will help in achieving the following goals:
· Increase Community Engagement
CEQA
Not applicable.

ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
Upon City Council’s approval, staff will create an application, implement the program and manage requests in accordance with the policy guidelines.

The City of Mountain House Strategic Plan Fiscal
Years 2025–2027 was developed through a
collaborative, community-centered process
involving our City Council, executive leadership,
department staff, and public feedback.

As a newly incorporated city, this plan marks a
foundational step in aligning our goals with the
needs and vision of our growing community. We
began by identifying the major opportunities and
challenges facing Mountain House—ranging
from public safety and infrastructure to
community identity, sustainability, and service
delivery.

The City Manager’s Office facilitated crossdepartmental meetings and strategy sessions to define goals, map out priorities, and shape
measurable objectives. Staff across departments
contributed their expertise to ensure each goal
was realistic, future-focused, and tied directly to
community outcomes.

City Council reviewed the plan’s priorities during
working sessions and public meetings, offering
direction on policy alignment and fiscal
responsibility. Feedback from residents was
incorporated through town halls, surveys, and
real-time app interactions via the My Mountain
House platform. This figure illustrates the
structure of the City of Mountain House

AGENDA ITEM 8.1
TITLE:

MEETING DATE:

PREPARED BY:

Adopt a Resolution to Approve Budget Appropriation and Amendment No. 1 to Agreement A-2324-44 with CSG Consultants, Inc.

August 13, 2025
Matthew Gutierrez, Program Manager
Jodi Almassy, Deputy City Manager

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution:

1. Approving a budget appropriation in the amount of $620,000 to the Builders Fund (Account No. 104-1420-6599) for Building and Safety Division services provided under existing Agreement A2324-44 with CSG Consultants, Inc. for Fiscal Year 2024-2025.

2. Authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to Agreement A-2324-44 with CSG Consultants, Inc., increasing the total not-to-exceed agreement amount by $1,200,000, for a revised total of $5,440,000, to reflect actual and anticipated service demands as the City continues to grow.

3. Authorizing the City Manager to take all necessary and appropriate actions to carry out the purpose and intent of these recommendations.

BACKGROUND
On May 8, 2024, the Mountain House Community Services District Board approved a multi-year agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. (Attachment A) for Building and Safety Division services through June 30, 2029, with a total not-to-exceed amount of $4,240,000.

Since incorporation on July 1, 2024, the City has experienced an exceptional surge in building activity. In Fiscal Year 2024-25, the City issued approximately 460 full building permits, compared to about 230 in Fiscal Year 2023-24 — double the activity. This number does not include hundreds of additional over-the-counter permits for solar systems, HVAC replacements, electrical and plumbing upgrades, remodels, swimming pools, and other improvements. This spike in development has significantly increased demand for plan review, inspections, and permitting services, far exceeding early projections based on limited historical data from San Joaquin County.

In addition, certain technical review services, such as Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) compliance reviews and street naming and addressing assignments, were originally expected to remain the responsibility of San Joaquin County. However, in August 2024 these responsibilities were unexpectedly transferred to the City.

AGENDA ITEM 8.2
MWELO reviews require detailed plan checks of irrigation and landscaping designs for new developments to ensure they meet California’s strict water-efficiency standards. This involves reviewing submittals, verifying calculations for water flows, and ensuring developers incorporate approved drought-tolerant planting materials and irrigation methods.

Street naming and addressing is another highly detailed process that must be completed before a development can move forward. It includes assigning new street names and house or unit numbers, checking for potential conflicts with existing addresses, updating mapping systems, and coordinating with the post office, emergency services, and utility companies.

Both of these tasks are time-sensitive and regulatory in nature. Shifting them from the County to the City meant CSG’s contracted staff had to take on additional plan reviews, processing steps, and inter-agency coordination for every new subdivision and building permit. This added another layer of workload on top of the already high demand for building inspections, plan checks, and permitting services.

The agreement allows CSG’s staffing levels to flex with workload, but the pace of development has exceeded initial estimates. This has resulted in service costs for Fiscal Year 2024-25 surpassing the originally appropriated $840,000.

DISCUSSION
The requested appropriation is primarily administrative. The City has already collected more than enough revenue in Fiscal Year 2024-25, approximately $2 million from building permit activity, to cover these costs. However, because government accounting standards and the City's Financial Management Policies keep revenue and expenditure accounts separate, Council approval is required to move funds into the correct account (the Builders Fund) to pay for services already provided and close out the fiscal year in good standing.

Under the current revenue model, 65% of permitting revenue is allocated to CSG through the Builders Fund, while 35% is retained as City revenue. In addition to direct permit-related services, CSG also performs:

· General Fund Services – broader building and safety support, such as developing new processes, setting up systems, and handling special projects needed to take on new responsibilities.

· Developer-Funded Services – plan review and inspection services tied to specific development projects, reimbursed directly by the developer under development agreements with the City.

Revenue and Expenses for Building Permit Services
This table compares the revenue collected from building permits to the amounts spent on CSG’s agreement for plan review and inspection services.

2023-24 $0.00 $40,000.00 $40,000.00 $0.00 $0.00

How Building Permit Revenue is Used
Under our current revenue model, 65% of permit revenue is allocated to CSG for contracted building services, while 35% remains with the City.

Category Amount
Total Revenue Collected $2,018,982.94
65% – Paid to CSG (Builders Fund) $1,312,338.91
35% – City Share (General Fund) $706,644.03

Due to the volume of services performed, actual expenditures for Fiscal Year 2024-25 exceeded the original $840,000 budget. Staff was able to reallocate approximately $236,000 in available funds; however, an additional $620,000 is needed to fully fund services provided.

Budget Summary for Fiscal Year 2024-25
This shows how the original budget was used and why the $620,000 appropriation is needed. This is not a new cost to the City. The requested appropriation is to move existing revenue into the correct account to pay for last year’s services.

Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget Summary Amount
Total Agreement Expenses $1,696,465.14
Original Appropriation ($840,000.00)
Completed Administrative Budget Appropriations ($236,465.14) Requested Budget Appropriation $620,000.00
The requested Council action (Attachment B) includes appropriating $620,000 to fully fund Fiscal Year 2024-25 costs. In addition, staff recommends increasing the agreement ceiling by $1,200,000, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $5,440,000, to align with projected service demand through June 2029 and prevent potential mid-year limitations that could disrupt critical development review and inspection services.

FISCAL IMPACT
AGENDA ITEM 8.2
The proposed action will:

· Appropriate $620,000 to the Builders Fund (Account No. 104-1420-6599) for Fiscal Year 2024-25. · Increase the total agreement authority by $1,200,000 through June 2029. · Maintain service continuity while ensuring expenditures remain aligned with available revenues.

This appropriation is an accounting process needed to move already-collected permit revenue into the correct account so the City can pay for services already provided.

The current budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26 is $1,000,000. Staff will continue to monitor building activity to ensure future budgets align with actual service demands. With approval of the agreement increase, the agreement balance will be approximately $3,700,000.

STRATEGIC PLAN
The Council’s adopted 2025 Strategic Plan (April 9, 2025) includes goals related to:

· Ensuring timely processing of building related applications and public inquiries. · Maintaining staffing flexibility in a demand driven service area. · Supporting timely fiscal close-out of Fiscal Year 2024-25.

CEQA
Not applicable.

ACTION FOLLOWING CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL
Staff will process a $620,000 budget appropriation in FY 2024-2025 to pay for services provided under Agreement A-2324-44 with CSG Consultants, Inc.

The City Manager will execute Amendment No. 1 to Agreement A-2324-44 with CSG Consultants, Inc., increasing the agreement amount by $1,200,000, bringing the total agreement amount to $5,440,000.

1. Understanding (30%): Understanding of the Scope of Work; demonstrated knowledge of the work; identification and knowledge of Federal, State, County, District, and other agency requirements, as applicable to the requested services.

2. Qualifications and Experience (25%): The technical expertise and professional competence in areas directly related to this RFP; for each proposed candidate required number of years of experience in performing similar work; demonstrated ability to manage and coordinate the services, deliver quality products/services, be a reliable service provider, stay within budget, and meet deadlines; level of experience and training of key personnel assigned, including sub-consultants, if applicable; strength and stability of the firm; breadth and depth of resources.

3. Approach to Scope of Services (25%): The methodology and systems reflecting the ability to provide the requested services; thorough discussion of objectives; sensitive approach to public and regulatory concerns; management, coordination of services and quality controls; attention to detail and creativity.

4. References (10%): References will be verified, and all responses considered.

5. Proposal Cost (10%): Cost for providing the proposed scope of services and corresponding quality of work to be delivered based on consulting firm’s fee.

The District reserves the right to modify the composition of the Review Committee and retains full discretion in determining the applicability and weight of the evaluation criteria listed above. During the evaluation process, the District reserves the right, where it may serve the District’s best interest, to request additional information or clarification from Proposers, or to allow corrections of errors or omissions. b) Short-List Selection
The District expects to select two or more proposers from the RFP responses to continue with further evaluation. The short-listed proposers will be contacted in writing regarding their status as short-listed proposers. Additional discovery may be performed to assist in selecting the short list proposers. The District may request an interview from the shortlisted firms to further assist in the selection process. Should the District choose to require an interview process, the proposer will be required to make a short presentation, followed by a question-and-answer period.
c) Final Selection
The finalist will be selected by compiling the qualifications, references, and price evaluation criteria and selecting the one top ranked proposer that the District feels would 








  

ATTACHMENT A AGENDA ITEM 8.2
14 make the best Building and Safety services provider. The District may, at its discretion, select two finalists if it believes that two proposers are so close as to consider the evaluation a draw. In this case, the two proposers will be taken through negotiation. The best- negotiated solution will become the finalist and will be contracted to provide the proposed solution. If agreement cannot be reached with the top ranked proposer, the District will dismiss the proposer and begin negotiation with the second ranked proposer. d) Solution Confirmation / Best and Final Offer
Upon selection of the finalist, the District and the finalist will meet to enable both parties to confirm all requirements and representations to complete the best and final offer. This meeting may include additional demonstrations, confirmation of information, or any additional items that either party requires to be confirmed. The proposer will then complete their best and final offer. The best and final offer will form the basis for contract negotiation.
e) Contract Negotiation
At the conclusion of solution confirmation and best and final offer, the District will enter contract negotiations with the finalist. The final negotiated contract, along with the best and final offer, will be submitted to the District Board for approval.

We have carefully assembled a talented and experienced team that possesses the necessary expertise to operate a successful and efficient division during Mountain House’s anticipated transition to Cityhood.

As one of the fastest growing areas in California, Mountain House’s buildout population projection of 50,000 residents signals significant development potential—coupled with a 6.52% growth projection that is markedly higher than other communities in the region. To support this rapid expansion, CSG has carefully selected personnel with experience staffing full-service building departments for agencies that include:

Through this experience, CSG staff have gained invaluable insights into how to efficiently and effectively staff a full-service building department in a variety of situations unique to each jurisdiction. Founded in 1991, CSG has an established track record of success and currently furnishes planning, environmental, sustainability, building and safety, fire prevention, code enforcement, public works, and a host of adĚŝƟŽŶĂůƐervices to over 250 municipal clients throughout California. Additionally, considering our existing relationship with the County of San Joaquin, CSG has a unique understanding of the work required to finalize any outstanding permits that are still in process and excels in facilitating these transitions.

Crickett Brinkman will serve as the primary contact and Regional Operations Manager, ensuring that all services will be provided in a timely and efficient manner. ƌŝĐŬĞƚƚƌŝŶŬŵĂŶ | ZĞŐŝŽŶĂůKƉĞƌĂƚŝŽŶƐ DĂŶĂŐĞƌ

CSG has been providing digital plan
review services for over 20 years,
leading the consultant field with this
ground-breaking service. All paper plans
submitted to CSG for building and fire
plan review are immediately scanned
into digital files and stored on CSG’s
servers for quick and easy access by both our clients and our plan reviewers.

Our plan reviewers furnish electronic versions of their plan comments conforming to each client’s established correction list templates. Any additional forms utilized by the agency will be incorporated into the correction comments and returned with the appropriate recommendations. Plan check comments can be delivered electronically by email or other agency-approved means, enabling staff to immediately modify CSG’s checklist for incorporation with other department comments. We provide convenient, environmentally friendly digital storage of all construction-related documents, and on request, can provide clients with a set of digitally scanned plans (for a reasonable administrative fee).

In addition, for jurisdictions requesting a pure digital plan review workflow, we can enable an applicant to submit digital files—ǁŝƚŚŶŽƐŝnjĞůŝŵŝƚĂƚŝŽŶƐ— directly to CSG via our web-based application. Our application includes an online portal for the applicant/jurisdiction to retrieve comments and markedup digital plans including redlines.

Key features of our digital plan review service include:

CSG’s proposed approach for the new Building and Safety Division starts well in advance of July 1, 2024. ^ĞƚƵƉWŚĂƐĞ: Beginning in mid-May, we propose to work together with key City staff to establish the Building Department by creating the necessary forms, documents, software implementation (GreenVue), fee development (in conjunction with the City’s fee consultant), development of policies and procedures (working with the City and City Attorney), and assist with the setting up of the Building Department in the provided City space (TBD).

This would also include working with the City’s IT staff to guide them with the development of the City’s new Building Department website. Our proposal outlines a budget cost for this phase of the project which can be flexible depending on the City’s needs. This effort will include on-site participation by the Project Manager, Building Official, and Permit Technician and other CSG and City resources to make this transition smoother. ^ĞƚhƉWŚĂƐĞ

Approval of Agreement with Joe Kriskovich for Human Resources and Risk Management Services
August 13, 2025
Sarah Ragsdale, Administrative Services Director

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve an agreement with Joe Kriskovich for human resources and risk management consulting services, for a period beginning September 1, 2025 through June 30, 2030 in an amount not to exceed $968,517. The agreement also provides for two one-year extensions at the City’s discretion for a scope of work and price to be negotiated by the City Manager. Staff also recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to take all necessary and appropriate actions to carry out the intent of this recommendation.

BACKGROUND
The City’s human resources and risk management functions are assigned to the Administrative Services Department. Current staff includes one position assigned to human resources - the Human Resources Manager - and there is no position assigned specifically to risk management. As the City has grown, so has the activity in both areas. Staff anticipates that these functions will require expanded staffing in the future but in the meantime, contracting for additional support provides an opportunity to manage growth using a scaled approach while laying out a framework to meet current and future needs. Contracting also results in cost savings by not hiring additional employees at this time.

The City contracts for services for a variety of reasons. Contracting provides flexibility and scalability.

Contractors provide specialized skills that may be outside the expertise or capacity of staff. They can focus on specific tasks with time-sensitive deadlines. The City can quickly adjust resources based on current needs without the long-term commitment of full-time employees. Contracted services may provide cost savings compared to the ongoing costs for employees which consist of basic salaries plus approximately 60% for benefits, including health insurance, retirement, workers’ compensation, FICA and Medicare.

The City contracts for various services for the reasons listed above including:
· Fire and police protection
· Landscaping
· Planning and building inspection
· Operation of the water, sewer, and stormwater plants
· Preparation of planning documents, such as the Master Plan update, Municipal Services Review, and developers’ applications
AGENDA ITEM 8.3
· Calculation of annexation fees and reimbursements to developers · Legal services
· Janitorial services
· Information technology support
· Engineering services related to utility capacity, traffic studies · Tree and sidewalk evaluations and maintenance
· Economic development consulting
Staff is now requesting approval for human resources and risk management services for the period September 1, 2025 through June 30, 2030 in order to develop policies and provide instruction to staff for future development. Human resources and risk management are crucial to the operation of the City. Human resources is responsible for attracting and retaining skilled employees, fostering professional development and a healthy work environment, and ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations and labor agreements. The purpose of risk management is to identify, assess, and mitigate threats to the City, which would include employment and general liability issues. Current staff could develop human resources and risk management policies and strategies for current and long-term growth and provide training to staff, but to do so would redirect resources away from other pressing responsibilities and delay completion of projects.

Staff prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) combining the human resources and risk management functions. The services were combined because of the many overlapping causes and mitigation methods of employment issues and general liability risks. Risk management is typically part of the human resources departments of municipalities. The City will benefit from the services of a single vendor who will consider and address the interactions between human resources and potential general liability issues.

The scope of work as outlined in the RFP included the following:

Human Resouces Consulting:
· Assessing the City’s human resources needs, talents, and optimal placement of staff · Providing quality position descriptions and performance evaluations · Assisting with recruiting, training, retaining and promoting staff · Building a quality workplace environment, treating employees fairly and consistently · Evaluating the quality of fringe benefit packages provided to staff and monitoring the marketplace for other options that may be more cost-effective and beneficial to employees · Providing direction on human resource policies and practices, union negotiations, and legal requirements
· Overseeing human resources record-keeping systems
· Advising managers and supervisors on employee evaluations, discipline options and actions, and performance improvement plans that will provide employees with clarity on improving their performance
· Reviewing and updating the City’s Personnel Policies and Procedures as deemed necessary · Serving as a key contributor and participant in negotiations with the labor union AGENDA ITEM 8.3
Risk Management Consulting:
· Identifying the City’s insurable exposures and recommending professional methods to reduce, assume, or transfer the risk loss
· Assisting all City departments by reviewing policies and practices to provide direction on how to address and mitigate potential exposures
· Recommending any additional coverages that the City should obtain · Assisting in the preparation of applications, renewals, statements of values as required by the City’s insurer and in the preparation of cost estimates for the City’s annual budget · Developing a process for documenting damages to City property, ensuring removal of hazards, creating a procedure for assigning responsibilities to various departments, and collecting damages when possible
· Developing a course of safety training classes and working with the Human Resource Manager to ensure completion
· Topics include:
· Injury and illness prevention
· Comprehensive ergonomics
· New employee safety orientation
· Citywide driver and vehicle use safety
· Public works risk management
· Volunteer risk management
· Workplace violence prevention
· Special events risk management
· Reviewing and providing direction on certificates of insurance submitted by contractors, vendors, professionals, and participants in recreational activities and rentals · Serving as the City’s representative at meetings of the Municipal Pooling Authority · Reviewing insurance requirement in the City’s contract templates for appropriate levels of coverage and providing comments on vendors’ requests for changes to standard templates
· Participating in development of inventories of City assets by recommending information needed to ensure adequate insurance coverage
RFPs were distributed on June 4, 2025 with a due date of June 27, 2025. The RFP was sent to seven potential vendors and posted on our website and social media. An additional vendor submitted a bid.

Joe Kriskovich $968,517
The City received two responses, one of which was unresponsive in that the vendor bid only on the human resources consulting portion of the work. The other response was submitted by Joe Kriskovich.

Mr. Kriskovich has provided consulting services including representing the City in labor negotiations, supporting and mentoring the Human Resources Manager, facilitating membership in the Municipal Pooling Authority, and serving as the Mountain House representative on its Board of Directors. Mr.

Kriskovich has many years of experience in both municipal and commercial settings. He is familiar with Mountain House staff, operations and processes and has been responsive to requests for direction and assistance. Finally, Mr. Kriskovich proposal for services was responsive to the scope listed in the RFP.

During fiscal year 2024/2025, the City contracted with Joe Kriskovich to provide assistance with a variety of tasks mostly related to the impacts of incorporation. The scope of services provided during fiscal year 2024/2025 included labor negotiations over the impacts of incorporation, investigating opportunities for employee health insurance and other benefits no longer provided by San Joaquin County, representing the City on the Board of Municipal Pooling Authority, and working to take advantage of programs that better meet the needs of a municipality. Initially the cost of these agreements were within the City Manager’s signature authority. When the need for services expanded, the cost for the proposed services would have exceeded the City Manager’s signature authority. As a result, at the February 12, 2025 City Council meeting, staff requested and the City Council approved an additional agreement. Ultimately the combined total of all agreements with Mr.

Kriskovich reached $185,000 for fiscal year 2024/2025.

In order to maintain necessary, continuous and consistent services, the City entered into a short-term agreement with Joe Kriskovich to cover the months of July and August. Mr. Kriskovich’s services were needed for several issues, such as union activities, ergonomic evaluations, various personnel issues, input for the implementation of an automated application program, and meetings with the risk management authority. The cost of that agreement is $41,667. When added to the cost of the requested proposal, the total of the two agreements through June 30, 2030 will be $1,010,184.

The cost for the proposed agreement ($968,517) plus the short-term agreement already approved ($41,667) is shown in the table below. The total of the two agreements through June 30, 2030 will be $1,010,184.

DISCUSSION
In five nearby agencies (Cities of Lathrop, Oakley, Tracy, Brentwood, and Manteca), an average of $350,000 in total compensation (salaries plus benefits) is paid for Human Resources Directors. As is customary for most cities, the risk management function is assigned to the human resources department.

In the City of Manteca salary alone for its Human Resources Director is $215,000 and their Human Resources Manager and Risk Analyst positions are each paid $150,000. The City of Tracy’s Human Resources Director is paid a salary of $243,000. The salary for the Human Resource Manager of Mountain House is $187,679.

The following information shows a comparison of human resources and risk management costs for the cities of Patterson, Lathrop, and Mountain House with the proposed agreement included.

Patterson and Lathrop were used for this comparison because the cities have populations similar to Mountain House. The cost information for contracted services is based on the proposed agreement plus the previously approved agreement.

Mountain House 27,069 1.0 300,287 $250,000 550,287 20.33 As noted above in this report, current staff includes one position assigned to human resources - the Human Resources Manager - and there is no position assigned specifically to risk management. As the City has grown, so has the activity in both areas. Staff anticipates that these functions will require expanded staffing in the future but in the meantime, contracting for additional support provides an opportunity to manage growth using a scaled approach while laying out a framework to meet current and future needs, as shown in the per capita costs above. Taking advantage of services offered by with the proposed agreement could save the City $281,000 - $570,000 per year.

FISCAL IMPACT
As shown above, the average cost of these proposed services over the first three years (including the additional agreement for $441,667) is $260,000. The vendor is anticipating that the cost will decrease for the last two years to $154,000 and $77,000, respectively, due to the implementation of policies and practices developed during the first years of the agreement.

Sufficient funds are available in the recently adopted budget for fiscal year 2025/26 and funding will be requested in future budget proposals.

STRATEGIC PLAN
