Current evidence of insurance shall be kept on file with City at all times during the term of this contract. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, at any time.
K. City’s Rights of Enforcement: In the event any policy of insurance required under this Agreement does not comply with these specifications, or is canceled and not replaced, City has the right, but not the duty, to obtain the insurance it deems necessary.

M. Waiver of Subrogation: All insurance coverage maintained or procured pursuant to this agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against City, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers, or shall specifically allow Contractor, or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications, to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
N. Enforcement of Contract Provisions (non estoppel): Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on the City, nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
O. Primary and Non-contributory: For any claims related to this project, the Contractor's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the Entity, its officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers shall be excess of the Contractor's insurance and shall not contribute with it.
P. Specifications not Limiting: Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.
Q. Severability of Interests: The Contractor's insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer's liability.
R. Notice of Cancellation: Contractor agrees to oblige its insurance agent or broker and insurers to provide to City with thirty (30) days notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which ten (10) days’ notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each required coverage. 406
C-5
S. City’s Right to Revise Specifications: The City reserves the right, at any time during the term of the contract, to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving the Contractor ninety (90) days advance written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Contractor, the City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation.
T. Self-insured Retentions: Any self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-insured retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-insurance will not be considered to comply with these specifications unless approved by City.

The work will be accepted in writing by the Owner when the work is found acceptable under the terms of the Contract and the Contract is fully performed and the work fully completed.

The making and acceptance of the Final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the Owner, other than those arising from unsettled liens from defects in materials and workmanship or from faulty work appearing after final payment, and of all claims by the Contractor, except those previously made and still unsettled. No payment or certificate issued to the Contractor shall be considered to be an acceptance of any of the work of the Contract.

It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE XII: ASSIGNMENT: The contract shall not be assigned or sublet as a whole, by either party without the written consent of the other. The Owner and the Contractor for themselves, their heirs, successors, executors, administrators, agents, representatives, and subcontractors do hereby agree to the full performance of the terms, conditions, provisions, and covenants herein contained. 407

Subject: Consider a Resolution Authorizing Staff to Enter into an Agreement with Ralph Andersen & Associates for Executive Recruitment Services in Support of the Finance Director Position
BACKGROUND
In June 2026, Finance Director Albert Avila officially announced his planned retirement after 22 years of service to the City of Oakdale. Mr. Avila will be retiring in December 2026. Since this is a very specialized field, requiring a finance background and experience at the level of a Department Head, City Staff determined that securing an Executive Recruitment Firm would be the best approach to providing City Staff with the most qualified applicants for this position.
DISCUSSION
City of Oakdale staff reached out to four of the most well-known and reputable recruitment firms to solicit proposals for consideration.
City Staff received a total of two (2) proposals from the following organizations:
• Ralph Andersen & Associates
• WBCP
Prior to receiving the proposals, Staff conducted conference calls with both Ralph Andersen & Associates and WBCP, meeting with Wendi Brown, CEO of WBCP, and with Sabrina Landreth, CEO of Ralph Andersen & Associates. At this time, staff went over our demographics and the position, which included the typical responsibilities of our Finance Director and our governance model. Staff also assessed the experience of the recruitment firm as it relates to the position of Finance Director, to ensure that they are properly aligned to support our needs. Both recruitment firms demonstrated a level of experience and familiarity that would support our needs.
The next step in the process was to receive official proposals from each recruitment firm.
After receiving the proposals, staff conducted a thorough comparative analysis in order to determine which firm would be the most ideal fit to provide executive recruitment services for our Finance Director position.
After receiving proposals from both recruitment firms, City staff completed a comparative analysis, using the following five (5) rating criteria as overall factors for consideration:

Explanation of Recommended Firm
Below is a detailed explanation of Ralph Andersen & Associates' overall rating. Out of the two firms, Ralph Andersen has the most experience. As one of the original executive recruitment firms, they have been providing executive search and management consulting services since 1972, with 53 years of experience. Additionally, CEO Sabrina Landreth, who will be our point person on this recruitment, has extensive government and finance experience, including serving as General Manager of the East Bay Regional Park District, one of the largest special districts in the country, spanning 33 cities and two counties, and City Administrator for the City of Oakland, where she oversaw a $2 billion annual budget and more than 5,000 employees, including a large full-service Finance Department.
Since 2021, Ralph Andersen & Associates has successfully conducted nearly 30 executive recruitments for Finance Director-related positions, spanning California and other states, at both the City and County levels. Their company has one of the strongest track records of conducting finance searches.
Their project approach is a streamlined process that involves eight tasks and spans twelve (12) weeks, which aligns with our timeline. It consists of the following:

Their pricing was also the lowest of the two firms, with a fixed rate of $26,500 for recruitment services and all related expenses, such as job advertisement on various job boards, printing and distribution of recruitment brochures, and travel.
For their experience and the services they provide, they are the best value. Overall, we believe that Ralph Andersen & Associates is the best choice for our recruitment based on their recommended plan of action, services provided, and experience. That being said, it is an added bonus that their pricing was the most competitive.
FISCAL IMPACT
If Ralph Andersen & Associates is selected as the Executive Recruitment Firm, the overall cost for their services would be $26,500. Costs for this service would be paid from Fund 110 (General Government – Contract Services). Funding is available for this.

Staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution authorizing staff to enter into an agreement with Ralph Andersen & Associates for Executive Recruitment services in support of the Finance Director position.

Summary of Our Search Process
The successful search process relies heavily on person-to-person contact to identify outstanding potential candidates and, in the evaluation phase, to gain a complete understanding of the background, experience, and management style of the top candidates. The executive recruitment techniques used by Ralph Andersen & Associates have been developed and used successfully with hundreds of clients for more than 53 years.
We feel that the key elements of the search process, which can be tailored to fit the specific needs of the City of Oakdale, should include:
• Developing a combined comprehensive position profile (“recruitment brochure”) based upon information obtained through interaction and direct input from Human Resources and others, as directed.
• Extensive personal outreach, via telephone and other technology, to qualified candidates with a focus on both the immediate region, throughout the Western Region, and nationally. • A marketing strategy that uses selected advertising to supplement the extensive candidate identification process, uses the Internet and social media, and uses our national network of public sector executives.
• A screening and assessment process that narrows the field of candidates to those who most closely match the needs of the City of Oakdale and is based on extensive reference checks and interviews with the top candidates.
417
City of Oakdale
Finance Director
• Delivering a confidential end-product in the form of a Search Report that recommends the top group of candidates and provides the decision-makers with detailed information about their backgrounds and experience.
• On-site assistance and facilitation during the final interview and selection process. • As-needed assistance, including working with the City of Oakdale to formalize the deal points and memorialize and present the offer.
Commitment to Diversity
Ralph Andersen & Associates builds equity and inclusion into every stage of the search process, beginning with how we define the position itself. During our initial discussions with the City, we work to ensure the recruitment criteria and candidate profile reflect not only the technical qualifications needed, but also the City's commitment to diversity and inclusive leadership. Additionally, where appropriate, we solicit input from a broad range of stakeholders to ensure varied perspectives shape what we look for in a successful candidate.
Ralph Andersen & Associates believes diversity is inclusive, not exclusive, and a successful search is one that offers a diverse pool of highly qualified candidates, regardless of ethnicity, gender or other personal characteristics. We mitigate bias by anchoring every search in criteria-based evaluation tools so that all candidates are assessed against the same predefined qualifications rather than subjective impressions.
Search Work Plan
This section describes the usual steps in the search for a Finance Director for the City of Oakdale. This recruitment will be under the direction of Ms. Sabrina Landreth, Project Director.
Task 1 – Review Project Management Approach
The Project Director will begin work on the Finance Director recruitment within 10 days after the City of Oakdale provides a contract or, alternatively, an official notice to proceed.
The first task will include a meeting with City’s Leadership, as appropriate, to finalize the recruiting and selection process. This will include discussion of the project management for this search, review of the work plan, confirmation of timing, and communication methods.
Task 2 – Develop Position Profile
The position profile (“brochure”) for the Finance Director is the guide for the entire search process. The development of the profile includes the collection of technical information and recruitment criteria.
Technical Information
Ms. Landreth will conduct meetings with the City’s Leadership and other appropriate individuals as may be necessary to gain an understanding of the experience and professional background requirements for the Finance Director. These meetings and discussions will also help Ralph Andersen & Associates understand the City of Oakdale’s work environment and the opportunities and challenges it faces.
After the candidate profile (“brochure”) is developed and adopted, the technical information and recruitment criteria will be provided in an electronic recruitment brochure prepared by the search consultant. The electronic recruitment brochure will be reviewed by the City of Oakdale in draft format, revised as appropriate, and published for use throughout the search. 418
City of Oakdale
Finance Director
Recruitment Criteria
The recruitment criteria are those personal and professional characteristics and experiences desired in the Finance Director. The criteria should reflect the City’s goals and priorities. The Project Director will facilitate the identification and articulation of the standard criteria for a position of this nature.
Task 3 – Outreach and Recruiting
This task is among the most important of the entire search. It is the focus of the Project Director's activities and includes specific outreach and recruiting activities, briefly described below.
Outreach
An outreach and advertising campaign will be developed. It will include the placement of ads in publications such as the California Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO), Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA), Western City Magazine, Careers In Government, and other professional publications to ensure a broad candidate pool. A full list of advertising sources will be developed specifically for this search effort.
Additionally, the advertisement and the full text of the position profile (the recruitment brochure) will be placed on Ralph Andersen & Associates’ website, which is accessed by a large number of qualified candidates. This method of outreach to potential applicants provides a confidential source that is monitored by many public sector executives on an ongoing basis.
Candidate Identification
Ralph Andersen & Associates will use their extensive contacts to focus on candidate identification. In making these contacts, the Project Director will target those individuals who meet the established criteria. Each candidate identified through the recruitment efforts will receive a copy of the electronic recruitment brochure. Candidates will also be contacted directly to discuss the position and to solicit their interest in being considered.
Both the outreach and recruiting activities will result in applications and resumes from interested candidates. As they are received, resumes will be acknowledged, and candidates will be advised of the general timing of the search process. The following tasks involve the actual selection process once all resumes have been received.
Task 4 – Candidate Evaluation
This task will be conducted following the application closing date. It includes the following specific activities:
Screening
All of the applications will be carefully reviewed. Those that meet the recruitment criteria and minimum qualifications will be identified and subject to a more detailed evaluation. This evaluation will include consideration of such factors as professional experience, and size and complexity of the candidate’s current organization as compared to the candidate profile.
Preliminary Research and Internet Review
The research staff of Ralph Andersen & Associates, under the direction of the Project Director, will conduct preliminary research and review for those candidates identified as the most qualified as a result of the screening process. This level of research will be done on a limited number of candidates to learn more about each candidate’s public profile and related information. 419
City of Oakdale
Finance Director
Preliminary Interviews via Video Technology
The Project Director will conduct preliminary interviews with the top group of candidates identified through the screening and preliminary research processes. The interviews are extensive and designed to gain additional information about the candidates’ experience, management style, and “fit” with the recruitment criteria.
The screening portion of the candidate evaluation process typically reduces a field of applicants to approximately five (5) to six (6) individuals. Those individuals will be reviewed with the City of Oakdale Leadership prior to proceeding with the individual interviews conducted for selected candidates.
Task 5 – Search Report
The Project Director will prepare detailed information for review including resumes uploaded to a file sharing system (i.e., OneDrive). The Project Director will facilitate a review meeting with the City Leadership to discuss the top candidates. The report divides all of the candidates into four groups including 1) the top group of candidates that are recommended to be interviewed by the City; 2) a backup group to the first group; 3) the no further consideration group; and 4) the group that lacks minimum qualifications. The search report will include candidate resumes. The results of the preliminary research and interviews will be provided in writing to the City of Oakdale. This meeting will result in a confirmed group of top candidates for the City to further consider.
Task 6 – Selection
The final selection process and timing will vary depending on the City’s preference. The typical services provided by Ralph Andersen & Associates in the selection process are described briefly below. The Project Director will coordinate the selection process for the finalist group of candidates. This includes handling logistical matters with candidates and with the City of Oakdale.
Ralph Andersen & Associates will prepare an electronic interview booklet (uploaded to a file-sharing program) that includes the resumes and cover letters of the candidates to be interviewed. In addition, this electronic information will contain suggested questions and areas for discussion based upon the recruitment criteria.
Electronic copies of the interview booklet will be provided in advance of the candidate interviews.
The Project Director will facilitate interviews (Round #1) to assist the City through the selection process. This includes all candidates, panel members, and the City. This assistance will include an initial orientation, candidate introductions, and facilitation of discussion of candidates after all interviews have been completed.
Round #2 would involve in-person interviews with the Finalist Candidates. The Project Director is typically also available during this final selection phase to advise and guide the City, depending on the City’s preference.
Verifications will be conducted in accordance with the State of California’s practices. Reference checks will be conducted on the top candidate. The results of these reference checks will be discussed with the City at the appropriate time.
As needed, the Project Director is available to assist the City with the final selection. This assistance may include providing or obtaining any additional information needed to support the final selection decision.
Task 7 – Negotiation
The Project Director is available to assist the City in negotiating a compensation package with the selected candidate. This may include recommendations on setting compensation levels. 420
City of Oakdale
Finance Director
Task 8 – Close Out
After the City reaches an agreement with the selected individual, the Project Director will close out the search.
These activities will include advising all of the finalist candidates of the status of the search. Candidates who were not interviewed will also be updated.
Project Timing
We anticipate approximately 90 to 120 days (or less) from the execution of the agreement between the City of Oakdale and Ralph Andersen & Associates to the presentation of the finalists for an interview. Negotiation with the top candidate will take an additional week after finalist interviews.

RE: City of Oakdale - Director of Finance Recruiting Services It is our pleasure to submit this proposal for recruitment services to secure your ideal candidate to serve as the Director of Finance of the City of Oakdale. WBCP has worked on many finance recruitments, and we look forward to the opportunity to partner with your organization on this critical position! We trust our proposal will showcase our client-focused recruitment process and will act as a testament that we are passionate about what we do to make our clients happy.
WBCP, Inc. was selected, through a national request for proposal process, as the single-awarded vendor for executive recruitment services through a national competitive process conducted by the National Association of Counties (NACo) under the Public Promise Procurement (PPP) program. This cooperative purchasing agreement, with San Diego County serving as the Lead Public Agency (LPA), allows public sector organizations across the U.S. to satisfy competitive procurement requirements and contract directly with WBCP—without the delays or added costs of a traditional RFP process. The PPP/LPA partnership ensures that organizations can engage WBCP quickly, compliantly, and with confidence in the value and quality of service delivered. Learn more here: https://wbcpinc.com/naco.
It has been proven that great employees are looking for great employers, not just a paycheck. WBCP provides a broader perspective to recruitment services – going beyond securing the ideal candidate – we brand your organization as an employer of choice. We use eye-catching marketing materials, innovative search practices, and responsive and respectful communications with your applicants and stakeholders. Additionally, we guarantee this placement for 12 months, and we provide a fair and equal recruitment process that also focuses on attracting ethnic and gender-diverse applicant pools.
WBCP is talented at working with you to identify the strengths, challenges, and opportunities of this job, the ideal candidate, and your community and organizational culture. WBCP will work with your stakeholders to design a recruitment strategy that will include a customized engagement process. We will have a series of meetings, discussions, stakeholder interviews, and survey(s) to get to know you, the organization, the community, the culture, and the staff whom the future Director of Finance will lead.
My team and I know the California candidate marketplace and have many clients in your region, such as the County of Merced, County of Fresno, County of Mariposa, County of Stanislaus, and County of San Benito (just to name a few). We have exceptional experience successfully recruiting for similar positions, with several notable recruitments including, but not limited to:
Director of Finance, City of Banning, CA
Director of Finance, City of Laguna Beach, CA
Director of Finance, City of Sonoma, CA
Director of Finance, Monterey One Water, CA
Director of Finance, City of Sacramento, CA
Director of Finance, City of Phoenix, AZ

WBCP’s executive recruiters are all highly personable and have unique backgrounds that make them well-equipped to take on your recruitments, as you will read their biographies in this proposal. WBCP now has offices in California, Oregon, Washington, Texas, Arizona, South Dakota, and Florida.
425
Recruiting top talent has become the number-one topic among administrators. New and innovative recruitment strategies are critical to identifying and securing candidates with a deep understanding of how to assess and meet community needs and address future challenges. WBCP understands the complexity of community leadership, and we are prepared to provide a thorough, complete, and fair recruitment process to provide a diverse applicant pool. Our 2025 year-end review showed that, over the past three years, an average of 68% of our placements have been candidates from diverse backgrounds. In fact, we are often selected and told that we bring a larger, more qualified and diverse groups of candidates than they have ever received from past professional recruiters.
Lastly, we love what we do, and we are passionate about finding exceptional candidates who are also passionate about serving others. WBCP’s staff are driven and desire to exceed client expectations. I appreciate your consideration in retaining our services and hope to have an opportunity to work with you in the future.

WBCP knows how to customize your search strategy to meet your unique recruitment needs. We customize your recruitment based on the specific needs, target audience, and challenges for each recruitment; however, below is a baseline approach for most recruitments.
We require the Client and/or Search Committee, to be actively involved in key phases of the recruitment process to help WBCP gain a clear understanding of the organization’s priorities, leadership needs, culture, and long-term goals.
C L I E N T & S T A K E H O L D E R M E E T I N G S
Internal/External Groups: we provide customized online surveys and share distribution links to clients for internal and external stakeholder groups, including employees, residents, leadership teams, and community members.
Multilingual & Accessible Options: online surveys can be customized for distribution to specific stakeholder groups, such as individual districts within a city. Surveys may also be provided in multiple languages. Additional customization and translation services may involve an additional cost.

Immediately following the client feedback activities, we will draft the competencies for the recruitment and advertising material/recruitment brochure for the Client’s review. This information will summarize what was learned from Client-related interviews and will be used to advertise the opening.
C R E A T I V E D E V E L O P M E N T
Broad Community Participation: WBCP collaborates with stakeholders identified by the Client, which may includeelected officials, governingboards, executive leadership, employees, labor representatives, community organizations, residents, businesses, and partner agencies.Stakeholder input helps WBCP develop the ideal candidate profile, targeted recruitment materials, and a strategic outreach approach tailored to the Client’s needs.

VI. RECRUITMENT STRATEGY / PHASES....................................................
WBCP will review resumes as they are received and/or at the close of the recruitment. Those candidates determined to be the most highly qualified will be selected for a screening interview.
S C R E E N I N G I N T E R V I E W S / R E P O R T T O C L I E N T WBCP does not restrict the number of applicants or candidates to be screened. Rather, we interview candidates who meet our ideal candidate criteria; frequently this group amounts to 20 candidates, or on average 20% of the applicant pool. Following the completion of the phone screen interviews, we will develop a report/recommended shortlist of candidates, which includes: resumes, cover letters, and a one-page profile summary of candidates' professional history, including a brief overview of WBCP’s assessment and the results of their phone screen. We will meet with the selection committee/Client to review this report and select candidates for interviews. In this meeting, we will review the recruitment plan and discuss the final stages of the selection process.
WBCP will take responsibility for communicating with the applicants/candidates during each phase of the search process and Client should refer any inquiries from potential or existing applicants directly to WBCP.
S E L E C T I O N P R O C E S S
WBCP will design and administer an appropriate final selection process based on the needs of the Client (tailored to the need and recruitment). WBCP will facilitate the invitation and coordination of these meetings/interviews and provide additional assessment tools/recommendations such as interview questions, writing and presentation exercises, problem solving scenarios, etc.
PHASE III PHASE IV
R E S U M E A S S E S S M E N T
C O M M U N I C A T I O N W I T H C A N D I D A T E S
Following the interviews and the Client’s top candidate(s) selection, we will assist the Client with facilitating a thorough background and reference check.
A typical approach includes a review of federal, state, and local criminal background checks and academic verification by a licensed background agency. Reference checks are conducted over the phone by a senior consultant and a final report is provided to the Client. References are completed on candidate(s) being considered after initial/panel interviews.
C O M M U N I C A T I O N W I T H C L I E N T
Once the client reviews and is comfortable with the
findings in the background and reference report, we are available to assist with negotiations on compensation, benefits, start date, and other transition details.

Confidentiality is paramount in the work we do. We ensure that the client and candidate information we receive, and conversations with our client (and certainly discussions in closed session) are kept confidential. There are several physical safeguards we have in place including: locked and alarmed office space, password, and encryption protected information on our computers and servers, multiple backup systems. As information is shared with our client, we discuss the importance of confidentiality and why it is important to the candidates they are considering but also brands the organization appropriately. We also ask candidates who are interviewed to keep candidate information confidential, as they may see or meet a candidate during the process. We emphasize that confidentiality is not just until the recruitment is completed, and a candidate is hired, confidentiality is in perpetuity. Leaked information is not a reputation that a client wants to receive, as this could deter future applicants from applying.

This funding will provide additional overtime opportunities for officers to work DUI enforcement operations, including at least 24 DUI saturation patrols and 4 DUI checkpoints.

Schedule A
Oakdale Police Dept
The Grantor determined awards and adjustments based on the Project’s merit, operational scale, compliance with the Request for Application (RFA), and program regulations. Certain activities or budget items proposed in Schedule A may have been deemed ineligible for funding. The final, binding list of authorized activities and expenses is set forth in Schedule B - Detailed Budget Estimate.
Project Description
The Oakdale Police Department has seen an increase in the number of DUI related collisions over the past years. In order to combat the increase in DUI related collisions and injuries from collision, the Oakdale Police Department is requesting funds from the Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program. This funding will provide additional overtime opportunities for officers to work DUI enforcement operations and will provide the necessary and critical DUI investigation related training. Funds provided by this grant would be used to purchase two (2) Oakdale Police Department marked police vehicles which will be primarily by the Oakdale Police Department officers while they are conducting DUI related patrols and activities. The vehicles will be used for all DUI related operations and travel to and from DUI related training funded by the grant. The vehicles would be designated and marked with a “DUI Enforcement Vehicle” style decal. This funding will assist the City of Oakdale, the Oakdale Police Department, it officers, and the citizens with better DUI enforcement, identification, arrest, and prosecution of all DUI related matters. The funds would also be used to purchase a DUI trailer which would be utilized during DUI checkpoints and any other DUI related operations.
Problem Statement
The City of Oakdale has long been the last stop before heading into the Sierra Nevada, Sonora, and Yosemite Valley. Oakdale is home to not only a suburban style of living but also many ranchers and cattle farmers, which gave the city its name "The Cowboy Capitol." Growth from both tourists and housing has been good for the area. However, a rise in injury crash rates has also occurred due to an increase in impaired/distracted driving and other unsafe driving, The City of Oakdale has numerous new housing developments being built and an increase in the population to approximately 25,000 people. On the weekends, it increases depending on the weekend to approximately 35,000 people.
Oakdale serves as a major thoroughfare to the Sierra Nevada/Motherlode region, connecting travelers from the Bay Area and the San Joaquin Valley for leisure, agriculture, and business. SR 108 and SR 120 merge in the center of town to carry travelers east to the mountains or west in the San Joaquin Central Valley. On weekends, during summer holiday periods, the city experiences a significant increase in traffic, leading to congestion and a heightened risk of crashes. In the winter, people travel to the mountains for a variety of snow activities including Dodge Ridge Ski Resort and Bear Valley Ski Resort.
The Oakdale Police Department, along with other law-enforcement agencies in the area, have seen a noticeable increase in the number of DUI related collisions, and the number of DUI drivers being contacted on the roadways. The City of Oakdale is a smaller rural city within Stanislaus County. In 2023, the city had 300 reported traffic collisions. In 2024 there were 277 collisions and in 2025 there were 256 reported collisions. Approximately 9% of those collisions are DUI related. Over this three-year span, there have been 6 fatal collisions, 1 of them involving DUI. 33% of the DUI collisions involved injuries sustained during the collision. So far in 2026, we have had one fatal collision. While the overall collision numbers have gone down, the police department averages 82 DUI arrest a year. The Oakdale Police Department would like to reduce the percentage of DUI collisions to 5% of the overall collisions reported. We would also like to reduce the injuries sustained from DUI collisions from 33% to 25%.
Performance Measures/Scope of Work (Proposed Solution)
Proposed Solution
These documented statistics indicate the need for the Oakdale Police Department officers to focus more on DUI related enforcement. To accomplish this goal, more officers in our agency need to be trained in SFST, ARIDE, and DRE. The money received from this grant would help send officers to the necessary additional training. These funds would also be used to cover the overtime costs incurred by officers attending training. 457
Schedule A
In addition to the training, the funds would be used to conduct 24 DUI saturation patrols and 4 DUI/DL checkpoints. The funds to staff the saturation patrols would allow an officer to work an overtime shift to focus primarily on DUI enforcement without the need to handle regular calls for service. Due to the current budget, the police department has difficulty managing its aging fleet and keeping patrol cars in working order and available for Patrol. The Oakdale Police Department would also use these funds to purchase two new police vehicles which would be primarily used for DUI enforcement, activities, and transportation to and from DUI related training. The purchase of these vehicles would ensure officers working grant funded DUI related enforcement details would have a marked police vehicle to use. The funds would purchase a new DUI trailer to replace a 20+ year old cargo trailer that is currently used to store checkpoint supplies. The Funds would be used to send 2 officers (Traffic officer and the grant manager) to CNOA Conference to learn about evolving drug trends to better assist officers with DUI investigation.
Training
If funding is provided to the Oakdale Police Department, the funds will be used to send officers to DUI related training classes. Officers would attend these training sessions at the earliest convenience for department, scheduling and class offerings. It would be our goal to have all training completed by the second quarter of the grant funding cycle. As we are a small agency, and a majority of the department has already completed the trainings we would only ask for three SFST, three ARIDE, and one DRE. This performance will be measured by increasing the number of certified officers in our agency.
Funding for the CNOA conference would be used during the second quarter to send two Officers to the annual conference to learn about current alcohol and drug trends which affect driving and how best to detect these violators. The sergeant/officer attending this conference would be able to bring information back to all other officers at the agency and find a way to share this information from the training classes presented at the conference. The effectiveness of this performance would be measured by completing training bulletins to be distributed to officers at our agency and officers.
Funding would also be used to cover the backfill costs used to pay overtime to officers that are covering vacancies created when officers are attending DUI-related training and conferences. This performance would begin in the first quarter of the grant and continue throughout the grant. It would be measured by the number of overtime vacancies created when officers attend training or conferences for DUI-related activities.
DUI Enforcement Activities
Funding received for DUI saturation patrols would be used throughout the entire grant period. It would be the goal of the police department to schedule an average of two DUI saturation patrols a month, with adjustments made for certain months with major holidays. The funding would be allowed for officers to be specifically assigned to DUI enforcement activities without being tasked to respond to any other calls for service during their shift. This would ensure that the officers are concentrating enforcement activities on locating individuals driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These DUI saturation patrols would be conducted during days and times when the likelihood of DUI driving increased. The effectiveness of this performance would be measured by the number of DUI related collisions, and the number of impaired drivers arrested during this grant. Compared to the number of DUI drivers arrested during the same time from one year prior. It is the goal of the Oakdale Police Department, to reduce the number of DUI related arrests, and collisions by a minimum of 10% during this grant period as compared to previous year.
Equipment
The funding received from this grant would provide two new police vehicles that would be used during DUIrelated activities. This would include enforcement activities as well as travel to and from DUI related trainings. When the vehicle is not being used for these specific activities, it will be used by the members of the Oakdale Police Department for patrol, which includes traffic enforcement duties. These vehicles will be marked with a “DUI enforcement vehicle” decal to indicate the primary use of this vehicle. As with many other police agencies throughout the state, the Oakdale Police Department has had difficulty finding new enforcement vehicles in addition to having to maintain an aging fleet. These vehicles would be used by officers who are engaged in DUI related enforcements. If awarded, once approved by the Oakdale City Council, the vehicles could be purchased, outfitted, and ready to use within 3 to 5 months, depending on supply availability. This goal will be easily measured by the addition of patrol vehicles to be used for DUI related activities.
458
Schedule A
Project Performance Evaluation
Throughout the period of the grant, the Oakdale Police Department will use press releases, social media, and community outreach events to promote and educate the community regarding the project. Some examples of ways to communicate with internal and external stakeholders regarding the project would be to issue press releases or use social media to inform the community about when officers will be conducting extra enforcement activities related to the grant. After the enforcement activities, the Oakdale Police Department could use the same communication methods to talk about the outcome of the extra enforcement activities. At the conclusion of the grant cycle, the Oakdale Police Department will have statistics available regarding all grant related activities and the enforcement/violations which were documented. A comparison of the number of DUI arrests/collisions compared to the same time as the year prior will indicate the success of the grant activities.
Program Sustainability
Outside of existing grants funding, The City of Oakdale and the Police Department are not currently able to fund additional patrols to search for impaired drivers. Additionally, aside from an occasional social media posting regarding impaired driving, the city currently does not have a regular outreach program to educate on the dangers of impaired driving or to discourage impaired driving. All overtime funding that is currently allocated to the police department budget is reserved for patrol coverage on an emergency as needed basis.
The city’s population remains low as well as the tax revenue for the city. The city’s business and revenue stream were also impacted by Covid, and many businesses could not remain open in a modified capacity.
Several businesses closed and could not reopen.
The overall departmental goal for impaired drivers is to be able to provide its own funding for saturation patrols for impaired drivers. This will be possible when city revenue increases. The city has plans for additional residential and commercial properties to go in on both the east and west end of the town. All of these businesses and residence will sit on the SR108/120 corridor. This growth will allow for additional revenue streams to fund the city and police departments.
Administrative Support
The Oakdale Police Department is currently receiving grant funding from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). The Oakdale has received funding from either OTS or CTFGP over the past 10 years. A Patrol Supervisor and traffic officer maintains the grant in all respects from the daily operations to the quarterly reporting. The City of Oakdale City Council and executive staff support and appreciate the grant funding. 459

Schedule A
Oakdale Police Dept
The Grantor determined awards and adjustments based on the Project’s merit, operational scale, compliance with the Request for Application (RFA), and program regulations. Certain activities or budget items proposed in Schedule A may have been deemed ineligible for funding. The final, binding list of authorized activities and expenses is set forth in Schedule B - Detailed Budget Estimate.
Project Description
The Oakdale Police Department has seen an increase in the number of DUI related collisions over the past years. In order to combat the increase in DUI related collisions and injuries from collision, the Oakdale Police Department is requesting funds from the Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program. This funding will provide additional overtime opportunities for officers to work DUI enforcement operations and will provide the necessary and critical DUI investigation related training. Funds provided by this grant would be used to purchase two (2) Oakdale Police Department marked police vehicles which will be primarily by the Oakdale Police Department officers while they are conducting DUI related patrols and activities. The vehicles will be used for all DUI related operations and travel to and from DUI related training funded by the grant. The vehicles would be designated and marked with a “DUI Enforcement Vehicle” style decal. This funding will assist the City of Oakdale, the Oakdale Police Department, it officers, and the citizens with better DUI enforcement, identification, arrest, and prosecution of all DUI related matters. The funds would also be used to purchase a DUI trailer which would be utilized during DUI checkpoints and any other DUI related operations.
Problem Statement
The City of Oakdale has long been the last stop before heading into the Sierra Nevada, Sonora, and Yosemite Valley. Oakdale is home to not only a suburban style of living but also many ranchers and cattle farmers, which gave the city its name "The Cowboy Capitol." Growth from both tourists and housing has been good for the area. However, a rise in injury crash rates has also occurred due to an increase in impaired/distracted driving and other unsafe driving, The City of Oakdale has numerous new housing developments being built and an increase in the population to approximately 25,000 people. On the weekends, it increases depending on the weekend to approximately 35,000 people.
Oakdale serves as a major thoroughfare to the Sierra Nevada/Motherlode region, connecting travelers from the Bay Area and the San Joaquin Valley for leisure, agriculture, and business. SR 108 and SR 120 merge in the center of town to carry travelers east to the mountains or west in the San Joaquin Central Valley. On weekends, during summer holiday periods, the city experiences a significant increase in traffic, leading to congestion and a heightened risk of crashes. In the winter, people travel to the mountains for a variety of snow activities including Dodge Ridge Ski Resort and Bear Valley Ski Resort.
The Oakdale Police Department, along with other law-enforcement agencies in the area, have seen a noticeable increase in the number of DUI related collisions, and the number of DUI drivers being contacted on the roadways. The City of Oakdale is a smaller rural city within Stanislaus County. In 2023, the city had 300 reported traffic collisions. In 2024 there were 277 collisions and in 2025 there were 256 reported collisions. Approximately 9% of those collisions are DUI related. Over this three-year span, there have been 6 fatal collisions, 1 of them involving DUI. 33% of the DUI collisions involved injuries sustained during the collision. So far in 2026, we have had one fatal collision. While the overall collision numbers have gone down, the police department averages 82 DUI arrest a year. The Oakdale Police Department would like to reduce the percentage of DUI collisions to 5% of the overall collisions reported. We would also like to reduce the injuries sustained from DUI collisions from 33% to 25%.
Performance Measures/Scope of Work (Proposed Solution)
Proposed Solution
These documented statistics indicate the need for the Oakdale Police Department officers to focus more on DUI related enforcement. To accomplish this goal, more officers in our agency need to be trained in SFST, ARIDE, and DRE. The money received from this grant would help send officers to the necessary additional training. These funds would also be used to cover the overtime costs incurred by officers attending training. 466
Schedule A
In addition to the training, the funds would be used to conduct 24 DUI saturation patrols and 4 DUI/DL checkpoints. The funds to staff the saturation patrols would allow an officer to work an overtime shift to focus primarily on DUI enforcement without the need to handle regular calls for service. Due to the current budget, the police department has difficulty managing its aging fleet and keeping patrol cars in working order and available for Patrol. The Oakdale Police Department would also use these funds to purchase two new police vehicles which would be primarily used for DUI enforcement, activities, and transportation to and from DUI related training. The purchase of these vehicles would ensure officers working grant funded DUI related enforcement details would have a marked police vehicle to use. The funds would purchase a new DUI trailer to replace a 20+ year old cargo trailer that is currently used to store checkpoint supplies. The Funds would be used to send 2 officers (Traffic officer and the grant manager) to CNOA Conference to learn about evolving drug trends to better assist officers with DUI investigation.
Training
If funding is provided to the Oakdale Police Department, the funds will be used to send officers to DUI related training classes. Officers would attend these training sessions at the earliest convenience for department, scheduling and class offerings. It would be our goal to have all training completed by the second quarter of the grant funding cycle. As we are a small agency, and a majority of the department has already completed the trainings we would only ask for three SFST, three ARIDE, and one DRE. This performance will be measured by increasing the number of certified officers in our agency.
Funding for the CNOA conference would be used during the second quarter to send two Officers to the annual conference to learn about current alcohol and drug trends which affect driving and how best to detect these violators. The sergeant/officer attending this conference would be able to bring information back to all other officers at the agency and find a way to share this information from the training classes presented at the conference. The effectiveness of this performance would be measured by completing training bulletins to be distributed to officers at our agency and officers.
Funding would also be used to cover the backfill costs used to pay overtime to officers that are covering vacancies created when officers are attending DUI-related training and conferences. This performance would begin in the first quarter of the grant and continue throughout the grant. It would be measured by the number of overtime vacancies created when officers attend training or conferences for DUI-related activities.
DUI Enforcement Activities
Funding received for DUI saturation patrols would be used throughout the entire grant period. It would be the goal of the police department to schedule an average of two DUI saturation patrols a month, with adjustments made for certain months with major holidays. The funding would be allowed for officers to be specifically assigned to DUI enforcement activities without being tasked to respond to any other calls for service during their shift. This would ensure that the officers are concentrating enforcement activities on locating individuals driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These DUI saturation patrols would be conducted during days and times when the likelihood of DUI driving increased. The effectiveness of this performance would be measured by the number of DUI related collisions, and the number of impaired drivers arrested during this grant. Compared to the number of DUI drivers arrested during the same time from one year prior. It is the goal of the Oakdale Police Department, to reduce the number of DUI related arrests, and collisions by a minimum of 10% during this grant period as compared to previous year.
Equipment
The funding received from this grant would provide two new police vehicles that would be used during DUIrelated activities. This would include enforcement activities as well as travel to and from DUI related trainings. When the vehicle is not being used for these specific activities, it will be used by the members of the Oakdale Police Department for patrol, which includes traffic enforcement duties. These vehicles will be marked with a “DUI enforcement vehicle” decal to indicate the primary use of this vehicle. As with many other police agencies throughout the state, the Oakdale Police Department has had difficulty finding new enforcement vehicles in addition to having to maintain an aging fleet. These vehicles would be used by officers who are engaged in DUI related enforcements. If awarded, once approved by the Oakdale City Council, the vehicles could be purchased, outfitted, and ready to use within 3 to 5 months, depending on supply availability.
467
Schedule A
This goal will be easily measured by the addition of patrol vehicles to be used for DUI related activities.
Project Performance Evaluation
Throughout the period of the grant, the Oakdale Police Department will use press releases, social media, and community outreach events to promote and educate the community regarding the project. Some examples of ways to communicate with internal and external stakeholders regarding the project would be to issue press releases or use social media to inform the community about when officers will be conducting extra enforcement activities related to the grant. After the enforcement activities, the Oakdale Police Department could use the same communication methods to talk about the outcome of the extra enforcement activities. At the conclusion of the grant cycle, the Oakdale Police Department will have statistics available regarding all grant related activities and the enforcement/violations which were documented. A comparison of the number of DUI arrests/collisions compared to the same time as the year prior will indicate the success of the grant activities.
Program Sustainability
Outside of existing grants funding, The City of Oakdale and the Police Department are not currently able to fund additional patrols to search for impaired drivers. Additionally, aside from an occasional social media posting regarding impaired driving, the city currently does not have a regular outreach program to educate on the dangers of impaired driving or to discourage impaired driving. All overtime funding that is currently allocated to the police department budget is reserved for patrol coverage on an emergency as needed basis.
The city’s population remains low as well as the tax revenue for the city. The city’s business and revenue stream were also impacted by Covid, and many businesses could not remain open in a modified capacity.
Several businesses closed and could not reopen.
The overall departmental goal for impaired drivers is to be able to provide its own funding for saturation patrols for impaired drivers. This will be possible when city revenue increases. The city has plans for additional residential and commercial properties to go in on both the east and west end of the town. All of these businesses and residence will sit on the SR108/120 corridor. This growth will allow for additional revenue streams to fund the city and police departments.
Administrative Support
The Oakdale Police Department is currently receiving grant funding from the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). The Oakdale has received funding from either OTS or CTFGP over the past 10 years. A Patrol Supervisor and traffic officer maintains the grant in all respects from the daily operations to the quarterly reporting. The City of Oakdale City Council and executive staff support and appreciate the grant funding. 468
