My career has focused on analyzing situations and problem solving. I value donating time for the good of others, and that's how I see serving on a committee.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
I moved to Norco to raise my daughter here. My wife and I ride our horse's on the trails here, and we have a vested interest in keeping the trails safe and fun for future generations of Norconians.

GENERAL QUESTIONS
Community Involvement (List any boards, commissions, committees and/or organizations on which you are currently serving or have served on)
I was a volunteer for about 5 years, up at the old community center on Norco Clean-Up day, until it was transferred up to Ingall’s. Just about broke my own nose once when I didn’t toss a tire hire enough to land in the already full roll-off, and it bounced back and caught me square in the face, lol. I was doing the tires, e-waste and tennis shoes. It was exciting and I met a lot of great Norconians Employment Background (List titles and duties)

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
I love Norco’s history and lifestyle. I own and published the website graphictracks dot com, which I’m currently uploading 18 Norco High, and 7 Norco Junior High, school yearbooks, so our alumi (and anybody else in the world) can view, free of advertising and sponsorship, and without having to register or become a member.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
My friend and fellow Norconian, Kevin Bash said that I should consider serving on one of the Norco Committees.

Note: I have bad knees from a childhood injury (I’ve never applied or claimed a disability throughout my lifetime and career) and now in my later years, I’m finding it more difficult to bend my knees to do the mechanical adventures I so once loved to do.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? Research, Search, Gather and present objects of historical value for our community and citizens so that they can see/view our rural history and our continued knitting of modern day western lifestyles to those of our past.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives?

Page 51 of 614 ends

Search, search, search and keep meticulous records and abstain from handling historical records without kid gloves so to speak. It’s just something that I’ve enjoyed prior to ever even considering to apply for a commission position.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?
Not at all. Not even the slightest interest.

I am passionate about protecting and preserving Norco's uniqueness, and bring a commonsense approach to doing so. I attend (or watch online) city meetings and stay up-to-date on current events. I bring the perspective of a storefront business owner, and the experience of working with the business community for many years. I believe in applying fairness and compassion to decision-making, and treating others with respect and integrity.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
I have been a resident of Norco for 17 years, have actively volunteered in the community for 10-plus, and have been a part of the business community since 2012. I love Norco, its animal-keeping lifestyle, and its smalltown character. lt is very important to me to preserve and protect that lifestyle and character, and the planning commission is on the front line to do that. There are a number of significant projects that are imminent, and the decisions made have the potential to shape the future character of the City. I would like to be a part of that process, to help ensure they benefit the uniqueness of Horsetown USA.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? The Planning Commission must strike a balance between the wants and needs of the residents, the need for economic development and the desire to position the city as a destination, and maintaining Norco's rural atmosphere and animal-keeping lifestyle. lt must focus on responsible development, be consistent in its decision-making, and support the City's Strategic Plan.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives? By approaching every project with an open mind, taking into consideration how it will impact the city as a whole and the specific business or residential area in which it is located. By working within and upholding city code, and by making recommendations for code changes when needed or asked to do so. By understanding that there are shades of grey, and that code cannot cover every situation, and

Page 54 of 614 ends

applying that to variances, conditional use permits, site plans, and design reviews. By working together with staff, City Council, other commissions, and the community.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?
I do not see any potential for any conflict of interest claims based on my personal interests.

Page 62 of 614 ends

the club. Along with this as a member of the leadership program, I participated in planning engaging activities and exciting events that were designed to bring club members together.

Employment Background (List titles and duties)
Over the past 4 years I have worked alongside my parents running a concessions business. We attended many Norco events such as the Norco Fair, many of the local rodeos, little league opening day, and currently work most weekends at the Silverlakes soccer complex.

I am interested in serving on a City of Norco commission because this is the place I grew up and I want to see myself make a positive impact on the town that has done so much for me. Throughout the rest of my life I know that I will always return to Norco and enjoy what it has to offer and knowing that I had a part in making Norco the type of town it is is something that is very important to me and something I would take pride in.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? The objective of the planning committee is to ensure that all proposed developments are in accordance with California state law and follow the city's zoning laws and land use regulations.

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
I have worked in public education for the last 20 years. I understand the different aspects of business and the operations of a governmental agency. Recently, I have retired from a K-12 public school district and I would like to use my knowledge to help benefit the City of Norco. Although my family and I have only lived in the community for five years, we have family and friends that have lived in Norco for several decades. I believe that volunteering to help bring the community closer is important, which is why I am an active chairperson in both the Norco Fair and Horseweek committees.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
The City of Norco is a unique equestrian town with trails, arenas, ranches and farms. I feel the lifestyle many of us have enjoyed is at a crossroads. Pressure from the state and federal government is making the rural lifestyle more difficult to maintain. I believe that with my unique experience that I can be an asset to the commission in helping to keep Norco a great community.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? In my opinion, the Planning Commission objectives are to understand, review and provide oversight of zoning laws, land uses and the General Plan. Additionally, the committee reviews and considers

Page 80 of 614 ends

any re-zoning, variances, conditional use permits and site plan approval for possible future developments. The decisions of the Planning Commission are binding, and the City Council has the authority to appeal any decision by the Commission.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives? I believe that I can help to achieve these goals and objectives by understanding what is being presented to the Commission. The years that I have spent working in architecture, engineering, construction and project management has taught me a thorough understanding of building codes and given me the ability to read and interpret plans.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?
No, I do not foresee a potential conflict of interest.

Also have completed four Advanced Placement classes passing every single one of the exams( AP World Histoy, AP Literature and Composition, AP U.S History, and AP Chemistry). I have maintained a 4.514 gpa and am ranked seventh in my graduating class, making it to the Honors Court.

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
I was recommended for the prestigious Boys and Girls State program by my AP U.S. History teacher, went through an interview proccess and attended/completed the program being elected a city council member. My city in said program became the fourth best city in the entire program this year and won the best city seal. I also achieved a perfect score of five out of five on my Advanced Placement test for AP U.S. History, on top of that I will be taking AP U.S. Government this upcoming school year to build on top of this knowledge.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
After attending Boys and Girls state and being elected to the city council I have a new interest into getting into local city politics/programs. On top of this my parents are encouraging me to be more active in programs to further my chances at getting into a better college. Also, i have seen how the city of Norco continues to incorporate new changes into the city that improves the feeling of being a part of norco, so i would love to be included as a impact on this. The biggest reason is that I dont want to pass up on any opportunities that I have, that my parents and many others never where able to see, I dont want to leave any rock unturned and live life with the intent to live it to its fullest.

Not only focusing on that but just in general to broaden the scope of opinions in the City Council.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?
Everyone will allways have a bias to a certain side of a arguement and although my aim is to reflect peoples opinions, which have biases, I will only use that to benifit the overall population of Norco. I will have my own personal interest along with others but will not put my own ahead of any others, so in short no.

Employment Background (List titles and duties)
I have never been employed.

Educational Background (List degrees, majors, credentials, certificates and/or licenses) I have finished elementary school and middle school, but I will be a sophomore in high school in the following school year.

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
I qualify as an applicant because I believe I cant bring a different perceptive that would represent the youth in our community. I am very open-minded in hearing different perspectives from not only the students but also the any authority figure I have in my life. The only experience that would be of any relevance wuld be the many personally discussions I've had with friends. I've also been apart of Socratic Seminars in which one of the discussions was whether or not minor should be capable of receiving driving licenses. I also took a speech and debate elective during middle school which included having many thorough discussions with my peers. This all validated my interest of becoming a lawyer when I'm older.

I am interested in serving because I believe it will benefit my public speaking skills and enhance them. I would also love to experience governmental associated services in order to make sure its what I want to do in the future.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? I believe the the youth commissioners generally aim to provide a platform in which young people can express their opinions and concerns. This also allows young people to advocate for policies and programs that will benefit them in the community. It also gives young people engage and participate in local government that will provide change in a community.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives? I would love to put together a program in which several discussions would occur with different perspectives from young people. It would be very similar to a having a speech and debate club in a way.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?

Page 126 of 614 ends

If I were to serve I wouldn't see a potential for an conflict based on personal interests because I always try to keep an open mind and always love hearing for different perspectives.

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
I believe I am a qualified applicant because I have experience in government. I’ve been in a school government for the past 5 years. This current year, only 5 sophomores were allowed into ASB at my school, and I was very involved in the planning of the events our class hosted. Through this, I know now how to communicate with adults well, and how to interact with larger groups of people.

I try to see everything with an open mind, and I want everybody, from all walks of life to get the assistance that they may require from the city council. I know most people working on the city council also have these ideals in mind, meaning no conflict would occur.

To whom it may concern,
I am writing this letter to recommend Sara Flores to your program. She is an excellent young woman, in everything she does. Sara is one of my most brilliant students, and she has the wonderful combination of being one of my most hard-working students. From the classroom to her extracurriculars, there is nothing that Sara does not excel in.

Truly, I believe Sara can do incredibly well at anything she sets her mind to accomplish.

Sara has shown much balance and excellence in her life. She has always excelled in her academic courses, achieving a 4.36 GPA. She consistently works hard at everything she does.

She is immensely active in our Associated Student Body (ASB). Through this, she sacrifices much of her time to set up many on- and off-campus school events. The students on our campus love her attitude and her dedication so much that they elected her as next year’s Junior Class Vice President. On top of all this, Sara is also a saxophone player in the varsity marching band at one of our local high schools. This alone requires an insurmountable amount of time and practice. Yet, she balances that with school and with ASB. I mention all this to say that Sara is equipped to work hard in anything she is involved in.

Currently, Sara is a student in a chemistry course. She received the highest ‘A’ out of all my students in my course last semester, which is an incredible accomplishment. My chemistry course is a college-level designed course that many students cannot get A’s in. For her to achieve this great grade, as well as manage all of the extracurriculars she is involved in, is impressive.

Sara is also someone who loves others well. She shows much kindness and encouragement towards all of her peers. She is a person with a huge heart. She takes much of her time to tutor her peers in my challenging chemistry course. It is incredible to see someone who is willing to sacrifice her time to help others succeed, especially when her plate is already stacked high.

I can absolutely say, with much confidence, Sara would be an excellent fit for your program. She has a wonderful attitude, wonderful heart, and a great work ethic! Should you have any questions, feel free to contact me at the address below.

Sincerely,
Jeff Alphonse, M.A. Teaching, M.S. Chemistry

I have been in Construction Management for over 36 years in both the private and public sector. The majority of my experience has been in Public Works, both working on the construction side and for public agencies. I was the Contract Administrator for the City of Riverside for almost 3 years then left and started my own business consulting for many public agencies throughout Southern California.

Educational Background (List degrees, majors, credentials, certificates and/or licenses) I attended Cal Poly Pomona and majored in mathematics. I also attended Cal Poly's Extended University and received certificates in Construction Management, Construction Business Management and Advanced Construction Management and now I instruct Legal Aspects of Construction pert-time at Cal Poly's Extended University.

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
In my 37 years of hands on Construction Management I have been exposed to numerous projects varying from large site improvements, roadways, bridges, buildings, parks, city facilities and city improvements including plan review, constructability reviews, code compliance, building compliance, design conformance and ADA compliance. I feel my ability to read and understand plans and hands on construction experience would assist with the Planning Commission abilities in many ways. I have worked with several Building Divisions in Southern California for many years and understand how to articulate the rules and regulations, and make sure projects are being constructed to the standards required by the City. When necessary, evaluate changes required to make sure the concerns of our Council members and people of Norco are being properly represented. I feel it is very import to be relevant to the past while also evaluating the future.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
I have always lived in the surrounding area of Norco and wanted to have residency in Norco. It ha taken several years to finally obtain that goal. I have always wanted to become more involved in the community. With all of my years serving in the public sector I have been exposed a side many do not see. The good, the bad, the politics and the possibilities. I feel Norco is very unique committee and I am proud to finally be part of the community. I have grown a successful business, have many years of knowledge and feel it's time to share that experience where it could be well served.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? As stated above, it is necessary to constantly evaluate the rules and regulations currently in place at the City of Norco, maintain an understanding of those rules and regulations and make sure those standards are current and relevant to the City. It is also important to maintain the integrity of the City standards and listen to City staff, the people and City Council and understand the current rules and regulations as well as evaluating the necessary changes that may be needed to keep the City relevant.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives?

Relevant Experience (Briefly explain how your background, training, education and/or interests specifically qualify you as an applicant for the governmental body you are applying to serve on)
As an educator in Public Management and Policy, Leadership in Public Service and Human Resource Management, I discuss with my students that a governmental body's worth is judged by fiscal responsibility, solvency and sustainability. I advocate for transparency, accountability, and competency. I have held financial positions for the last 40 years with a variety of entities. I am currently the Chief Financial Officer of MSW Equine Rescue/Rehab. I hold a teaching credential in Business and Finance. I have held a variety of financial positions within corporations, nonprofits and a variety of other entities. I have the knowledge, skills and abilities to perform with great efficiency and effectiveness.

Why are you interested in serving on a City of Norco Commission/Committee/Advisory Council?
I have an extensive background in leadership, time management skills, problem solving and supervisory ability. I love Norco and all it stands for with its rural lifestyle. I want to make a difference and uphold the values we have to ensure our city continues to grow and sustain itself. I believe being involved is a civic duty and being involved will allow me to work with the City, and if needed, hold the city and the council accountable to the voters.

In your opinion, what are the goals and objectives of the Commission(s)/Committee(s)/Advisory Council(s) you are applying to serve on? The Oversight Committee's primary goal and objective is to "provide for independent review of revenues generated by Measure R and expenditures made thereto" as outlined in the voter's

registration packet in 2018. It's ensuring that the tax revenue generated by Measure R, while placed in the general fund, are used appropriately as promoted and endorsed by the City Council.

If appointed, how would you help achieve these goals and objectives? As with any position I apply for, I would educate myself to ensure the highest level of competency to make sound decisions along with my fellow committee members. I would make it one of my endeavors to ensure that all expenditures meet the eligibility requirements of Measure R, and the spending is conceptualized appropriately. I will hold the council and city accountable that project expenditures through Measure R are accurate and provide feedback to stakeholders of this city.

If appointed to serve, do you see any potential for a conflict of interest claim based on personal interests?
No.

STAFF REPORT
Date: July 19, 2023 Agenda Item:

2.D.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Cindy Balderas, Human Resources Manager
Department: Human Resources
SUBJECT:

Approval of Memorandum of Understanding for Norco General Employees Association (NGEA) and Salary Schedules for FY 2023-24 and 2024-25.

RECOMMENDATION:

SUMMARY:

The current Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and the Norco General Employees Association (NGEA) expires June 30, 2023. Changes to the existing MOU include implementation of the compensation study; a 1.5% salary adjustment; increase of $50 per month in employer contribution towards CalPERS Health insurance premiums in July 2024, and reducing retiree health benefits for new hires.

BACKGROUND:

Annually, representatives from the NGEA confer with the City’s management representative to negotiate salaries and benefits. The NGEA has met with management and conferred in good faith and have agreed on the terms of the new MOU effective July 1, 2023. NGEA has agreed to a two-year contract.

The recommended MOU provides for implementation of the compensation study conducted by Public Sector Personnel Consultants that was conducted in 2021-22, completing that item on the City's Strategic plan. It also includes a 1.5% salary adjustment in year one and a 2% salary adjustment in year two; and an increase of $50 per month in employer contribution towards CalPERS health insurance premium effective July 1, 2024.

Some non-financial changes to the MOU consist of an agreement to update job classification list to modernize job titles; adding language for computer loan program that previously existed in an administrative policy; and adding a military leave benefit. The

Page 188 of 614 ends

new MOU also reduces the health retirement contribution for new hires hired after July 1, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The estimated cost of the implementation of the compensation study, a 1.5% salary adjustment including impacts on pension and Medicare contributions for fiscal year 2023- 24 is $97,894. The estimated cost of the 2% salary adjustment in year two including impacts on pension and Medicare contributions and the increase of $50 per month towards CalPERS health insurance is $50,789. The estimated cost was included in the FY 2023-24 Operating Budget and estimated costs for year two will be included in the FY 2024-25 Operating Budget.

In the long-term, there will be significant savings in the health retirement contributions reducing the Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability for funding the health benefits that employees receive as they retire.

RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:

The recommended MOU is consistent with Strategic Plan Direction No. 2 - Human Capital: Build a sustainable workforce to meet the needs of all stakeholders. It also marks part of the completion of Item 2.1 - Complete and implement citywide classification and compensation study.
