• Hours cashed out shall be paid at the employee’s regular base rate of pay. • Once an election is made it cannot be rescinded or modified.
Employees are required to complete the City’s standardized election form, which provides additional policy details.
C. Sick Leave
Exhibit A
15 All eligible employees shall accrue 3.6923 hours of sick leave per completed pay period. Employees who are hired or separate from the City mid-pay period shall receive prorated leave accruals based on the number of hours worked during that pay period. There is no cap on the number of sick hours that can be accrued.
Employees hired on or after January 1, 2020, and not transferring from another bargaining unit, shall be frontloaded forty-eight (48) hours of sick leave for use during their first six (6) months of employment. After the completion of six (6) months of employment, sick leave shall accrue in accordance with the provisions of this chapter.

Sick leave may be used for the following purposes:
1. The diagnosis, care, or treatment of an existing health condition of, or preventative care (e.g., medical, dental, and vision appointments) for the employee themselves or any of the following family members of the employee: a child of any age or dependency status; a parent; a parent-inlaw; a spouse; a registered domestic partner; a grandparent; a grandchild; a sibling; or a designated person.

D. Unanticipated Emergency Leave
Subject to supervisor approval and operational necessity, an employee may use up to 30 hours of their sick leave bank per calendar year to be designated as “Unanticipated Emergency Leave” (UEL). UEL is intended to provide limited schedule flexibility by allowing paid time off to address unexpected, urgent, and unavoidable personal matters requiring the employee’s immediate attention (e.g., a vehicle breakdown en route to work, a burst water pipe at home). UEL shall not
Exhibit A
16 be used as additional vacation time, to extend weekends or holidays, or for foreseeable events that could be reasonably scheduled in advance. Employees are required to disclose the nature of UEL use. Simply stating “personal day” does not meet justification for UEL use.
E. Holidays
The designated holidays for POA employees are as follows:

2. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: third Monday of January
3. President’s Day: third Monday of February

Employees shall be paid 4.31 straight-time hours per completed 14-day pay period in lieu of fixed holidays, calculated using the employee’s base wage during that pay period.
Shift personnel recognized in this Memorandum of Understanding are scheduled to work without regard to holidays. This fixed staffing requirement results in employees being regularly scheduled on holidays as a part of their normal fulltime duties.
Non-shift personnel: Should a holiday occur on the regular workday of a non-shift employee (e.g., Administrative Sergeants, employees on modified duty), they may work that shift as normal, use their vacation and/or comp bank to observe the holiday, or flex their work schedule in that work week accordingly.
F. Coordination of Leave Accruals
Employees receiving partial wage replacement (e.g., workers’ compensation temporary disability payments, State Disability Insurance, or Paid Family Leave)
Exhibit A
17 may use sick leave, vacation leave, floating holiday, and/or compensatory time off in order to maintain, but not exceed, their regular base pay.
G. Bereavement Leave
Employees may utilize paid bereavement leave for the following purposes:
1. Funeral- or Service-Related Needs: Attending or arranging a funeral or memorial service, or to take care of family matters, that are related to the death of an immediate family member (defined as spouse, domestic partner, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild, and the corresponding family member by marriage).
2. Reproductive Loss Events: Any qualifying reproductive loss event as defined in Government Code § 12945.6.

Employees are eligible for three (3) days of paid leave where the death or service are within the state, however, bereavement will be extended up to 5 days with the employee utilizing vacation, sick, or comp time accruals for the additional two days. The employee may also elect to recognize those days as unpaid. Paid bereavement leave must be concluded within one (1) year of the death of the family member.
H. Jury Duty
Employees shall be paid for actual work hours missed because of time spent in jury service. The employee shall be responsible for notifying their supervisor as soon as possible upon receiving notice to appear for jury duty, make every reasonable effort to keep their supervisor advised as to the anticipated length of service, and return to work the day of on the first day following the end of jury duty service depending on the time released.
I. Time off to Vote
If any employee does not have sufficient time outside of working hours to vote, they may request up to two (2) hours of vacation or comp time, either at the beginning or end of scheduled working hours, to enable them to vote. Employees must request time off to vote from their supervisor at least two (2) days prior to the election.
J. Family and Medical Leave
Exhibit A
18 The City provides family and medical care leave to eligible employees in accordance with applicable federal and state laws. Employees must provide appropriate medical certification or documentation supporting the need for the leave.
K. Military Leave
Military leave will be granted in accordance with federal and state law as well as rule 16.07 of the City’s Personnel Rules and Regulations. An employee requesting leave for this purpose shall promptly provide the supervisor with a copy of the military orders specifying the dates, site, and purpose of the activity or mission.
Within the limits of such orders, the supervisor may determine when the leave is to be taken and may modify the employee’s work schedule to accommodate the request for leave.
17. UNAUTHORIZED ABSENCE
Any employee absent from their position without leave for three (3) or more working days without written notification or prior permission of their supervisor may be considered to have automatically terminated their employment with the City. Such termination may be appealed upon the return of the employee, and a final determination will be based upon the reasons furnished by the employee to the appointing authority for not having obtained prior permission.
18. UNIFORMS
An annual uniform allowance for the complete maintenance and replacement of pants, shirts, hat, and jacket shall be paid as follows:
• Sworn: $1,200
• Non-Sworn: $1,000
Newly hired employees shall be advanced one year’s uniform allowance on their first paycheck following their hire date. Annual payments shall commence with the second year of employment and be issued on the first paycheck in January of each calendar year.
This payment is in recognition of expenses for the upcoming calendar year, not the previous year. Employees who separate from City service prior to the completion of their first year shall return all uniform items purchased with the uniform allowance.
If during the normal course of their duties, employees are involved in an incident wherein their personal property or equipment is damaged, destroyed, or taken as a direct result of the incident, the employee may request the Chief of Police to investigate the facts surrounding the incident. If the Chief of Police is satisfied that the facts of the incident occurred within the scope of employment, and the employee was exercising good
Exhibit A
19 judgment at the time of the incident, they may approve replacement of damaged equipment and/or uniforms.
Uniform allowance is not reportable as pensionable compensation for PEPRA employees pursuant to Title 2 California Code of Regulations §§ 571.1.

21. ADVANCEMENT IN WAGES
Wage ranges shall be divided into five (5) steps. Eligibility for step advancement shall be upon six (6) months of satisfactory service between the first and second steps and thereafter twelve (12) months of satisfactory service at the previous step.
An employee must always continue to maintain an acceptable level of performance and shall be evaluated annually. If the written evaluation does not support a continued acceptable effort, an individual may be reduced by the executive manager with the approval of the City Manager or their designee.
22. PERFORMANCE RATING SYSTEM AND DENIAL OF STEP INCREASE PERFORMANCE RATING SYSTEM:
Exhibit A
20 A uniform system of appraisal shall apply to all performance evaluation reports. The system utilized shall ensure that each employee is evaluated only upon factors which bear directly upon job performance. These factors may include, but need not be limited to:
quantity and quality of work; initiative and judgment demonstrated; conduct; and attendance. In addition to ratings based upon individual factors such as those named above, a final rating shall be made on each evaluation report which shall represent an aggregate overall rating of the employee's performance during the rating period.
All evaluation reports must be completed by the employee's immediate supervisor, reviewed by the next higher–level manager and approved by the executive manager or their designee. Following review and approval of the report, a copy shall be made available to the employee and discussed with them by the immediate supervisor and such other manager whose participation would be appropriate and beneficial to the discussion. Upon review with the employee, the final report shall be submitted to the Human Resources, with the original to be retained in the employee's personnel file.
Employees who disagree with the evaluation have the right to submit a reasonable amount of relevant rebuttal material to be filed with the evaluation.
The primary purpose of the evaluation report is to provide both the employee and department management with a current assessment of the individual's development.
These performance ratings shall also be utilized for:
A. Determining the fitness for appointment to regular status.
B. Determining advancement to higher steps in the wage range.
C. As a guide in awarding promotions.
D. As a record in matters involving disciplinary action.
E. As the determining factor in effecting layoffs where seniority is equal among two or more employees.
F. Determining eligibility for reinstatement.
DENIAL OF STEP INCREASE:
If a written evaluation does not support a continued acceptable effort, an individual may be denied a step increase by the executive manager or their designee. At that time, a performance improvement plan shall be developed to bring the employee's performance to acceptable levels.
An employee whose step increase has been denied because of substandard performance shall be reevaluated quarterly until an acceptable level of performance is achieved or the employee is otherwise disciplined or terminated pursuant to the personnel rules. If the employee's performance reaches an acceptable level, their step increase shall then be granted.
Exhibit A
21 23. PERSONNEL FILES
The City concurs that employees of the department may initiate an appeal to the Chief of Police to remove from their personnel files any notice of deficiency or letter of reprimand not involving serious disciplinary matters (i.e., suspensions, demotions, and dismissal) two (2) years from the date that the notice of deficiency was placed in the file. Given that there are no similar occurrences of the deficiency which have occurred within the two (2) year period, the Chief of Police may authorize removal of the negative material.

Exhibit A
24 have not been resolved satisfactorily in an informal manner between the employee and their immediate supervisor.
B. As used in this procedure the term "immediate supervisor" means the individual so designated by the Chief of Police who assigns, reviews, and directs the work of an employee.
TIME LIMITS:
Each party involved in a grievance shall act quickly so that the grievance may be resolved promptly. Every effort should be made to complete action with the time limits contained in the grievance procedure, but with the written consent of all parties the time limitations for any step may be extended.
STEP 1:
The grievance initially shall be personally discussed between the employee and their immediate supervisor. Within seven (7) days, the immediate supervisor shall give their decision or response.
STEP 2:

Exhibit B
2 4. TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT PAY
A. Temporary Interim Assignments Within the Employee Group When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing by the City Manager to perform all duties of a position in a higher classification within the MGMT group for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee’s base wage shall be set at the lowest step in the higher classification that provides an increase to the assigned employee’s base wage of at least five percent (5%). An assigned employee’s base wage shall not be lower than the minimum or exceed the maximum defined wage range of the higher classification. The appointment will be documented through an offer letter that is placed in the employee’s personnel file. Upon reaching the eligibility for advancement pursuant to Article 9, the employee’s compensation shall be increased to the next applicable step in the wage range.
B. Temporary Interim Assignments Outside of the Employee Group When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing to perform all duties of a position in a higher classification outside of the MGMT group for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee shall be compensated at the lowest step in the higher classification that provides an increase to the assigned employee of at least five percent (5%) of their current compensation level, inclusive of base pay and all applicable incentives (Longevity Pay). An assigned employee’s base wage shall not be lower than the minimum or exceed the maximum defined wage range of the higher classification. The appointment will be documented through an offer letter/contract that is placed in the employee’s personnel file. Upon reaching the eligibility for advancement pursuant to Article 9, the employee’s compensation shall be increased to the next applicable step in the wage range.
C. Additional Duties
When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing by the City Manager to perform additional duties in a higher classification for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee shall be provided compensation equal to 5% of their base pay. The assignment will be documented through an offer letter that is placed in the employee’s personnel file.
D. Use of Temporary Assignment Pay in Pension Calculations Compensation for temporary interim assignments must comply with Government Code § 20636 and Title 2 California Code of Regulations §§ 571 and 571.1 in order to be eligible for use in the calculation of CalPERS retirement benefits. Compensation for additional duties is not compliant for the purposes of pension calculations and will not be included in CalPERS reporting.
Exhibit B
3 5. EMERGENCY RESPONSE COMPENSATION
In recognition of the extraordinary circumstances of emergency response that result in exempt MGMT employees working hours above and beyond their normal work requirements, they will be compensated at a straight time for the additional hours spent on these assignments. Such compensation shall only be provided when the City receives reimbursement from federal or state agencies for the associated costs, ensuring no net fiscal impact to the City.
6. PAYCHECKS
The City compensates employees through electronic bank transfers issued on Fridays, one week following the end of each two-week (biweekly) pay period. Electronic pay receipts (pay stubs) and W-2s are accessible through the Employee Self Service (ESS) web portal.
Employees unable to print these documents may request copies from Human Resources. All compensation shall be issued on one pay stub; separate checks will not be issued for payments such as vacation cash outs.
Payroll Corrections: If an error occurs in the payment of an employee’s wages, overtime, deductions, or leave balances/usage, the City shall adjust such compensation to the correct amount and provide written notice to the employee. In cases of underpayments, the City shall process the correction as soon as practicable, typically the following pay period. In the event of an overpayment, Human Resources will determine a reasonable repayment schedule of no more than 12 months in duration and inform the employee of the schedule directly, or through the department director. The affected employee shall be given an opportunity to discuss the schedule of repayment and, if necessary, to request an adjustment to the repayment schedule as needed and reasonable. Factors considered in determining a reasonable schedule for repayment include, but are not limited to, the length of time the overpayment has occurred, the amount of the overpayment, the employee’s normal wages, and other financial obligations of the employee. If an employee with an active repayment plan separates from City employment prior to full repayment, any remaining balance shall be deducted from the employee’s final wages and leave payouts, consistent with FLSA and applicable law.
7. HOURS OF WORK
All employees must accurately report all work time. All non-exempt employees must accurately record time in/time out to the nearest five (5) minutes. All time spent for the benefit of the City must be reported as hours worked on timecards to ensure proper compensation. Employees may not “volunteer” to perform duties that are the same as, or similar to, their stated or regular job duties. Employees have no authorization to work without compensation. Managers/supervisors are prohibited from requesting or allowing overtime-eligible employees to work off the clock.
Exhibit B
4 Time worked of less than seven (7) minutes in any workday shall not be counted toward total hours worked. As such, hours paid shall be rounded to the nearest fifteen (15) minutes for payroll purposes. (E.g., an employee who starts work at 8:05 am, takes a lunch from 12:00 pm to 12:30 pm, and ends work at 4:55 pm worked 8 hours and 20 minutes. As hours paid is rounded to the nearest 15 minutes, they must record 8.25 hours on their timecard.) Employees may not earn wages and use leave simultaneously. Employees on leave who perform work during regular working hours shall adjust their leave use accordingly.
Employees who begin work on one day and continue working into the next calendar day shall be compensated at the same rate of pay as if all hours were worked on the initial day.
Daylight Savings Time: Employees assigned to work during the transition to or from Daylight Saving Time shall be compensated for all hours actually worked.
When Daylight Saving Time begins (springs forward) and results in a loss of one (1) hour, employees who are deficient one (1) hour of regular wages may elect to:
1. Charge the deficient time to floating holiday, vacation leave, and/or compensatory time off;
2. Work an additional hour during the FLSA work period (with supervisor approval); or
3. Go unpaid for that hour.
When Daylight Saving Time ends (falls back) and results in one (1) additional hour worked, employees shall be compensated for the additional hour at the appropriate rate of pay.
Work Schedules:
• Operations Battalion Chiefs: The standard work schedule shall be an average of fiftysix (56) hours per week based on a three (3) platoon schedule of repeating two (2) twenty-four (24) hour days on, and four (4) days off. Shifts will start and end at 0800 hours. When assigned to training, modified duty, or in any instance where an employee is not reasonably required to respond to emergencies, employees shall be provided a thirty (30) minute unpaid meal period. At the discretion of the Fire Chief, the work schedule may be revised to provide alternative scheduling for days on/off.
If necessary, the FLSA work period may be modified to accommodate this change.
Newly hired personnel, personnel on modified duty, and personnel assigned to training may be assigned a forty (40) hour week. Employees converting between a 40- hour and 56-hour work week shall have the hours in their hourly pay rate and leave balances adjusted by a factor of 1.4 accordingly.
• All other employees: Unless otherwise provided for, in writing, by an approved alternate schedule, the normal working schedule for full-time employees shall be eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week. Under some circumstances, alternate work schedules may be beneficial to both employees and the City.
Exhibit B
5 Accordingly, employees may request to work an alternative work schedule. Such requests shall be subject to approval by City management. City management reserves the right to modify or discontinue alternative work schedules.
8. OVERTIME
Non-Safety, Non-Exempt Employees: All hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours in a designated work week, or on a holiday recognized under this agreement, shall be compensated at the rate of one and one–half (1.5) times the employee's regular rate of pay.
All overtime must be approved in advance by a manager. The workweek for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime calculations shall consist of a seven (7) consecutive day period, beginning Sunday at 12:00 am and ending Saturday at 11:59 pm, except employees on a 9/80 alternative work schedule. For those employees, the start and end time of the workweek shall be adjusted dependent on the employee’s or division’s specific work schedule and documented in writing. Work schedules and workweeks may be modified by the City based on the department’s operational needs.
Operations Battalion Chiefs: All hours worked in excess of two hundred and twelve (212) hours over the twenty-eight (28) day work period shall be compensated shall be compensated at the rate of one and one–half (1.5) times the employee's regular rate of pay.
The workweek for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime calculations shall consist of a twenty-eight (28) consecutive day period, beginning Sunday at 12:00 am and ending Saturday at 11:59 pm. Operations Battalion Chiefs assigned to modified duty or other assignments that do not qualify under the FLSA Section 207(k) 28-day work period shall instead be subject to a forty (40) hour workweek, consistent with the schedule applicable to non-safety, non-exempt employees.
For purposes of determining overtime eligibility, time worked shall include hours actually worked and time compensated as holidays, jury duty, sick leave, bereavement leave, and previously scheduled vacation and compensatory time off. If leave is used on the same day as hours worked without being pre-scheduled, such leave shall not be deducted from the employee’s leave balance, and the hours worked shall apply toward the employee’s regular work hours—not toward overtime.
At the employee’s request, and with manager approval, overtime hours may be compensated as compensatory time off at the rate of one and one–half (1.5) hours for each hour of overtime worked, in lieu of cash payment. Compensatory time off may be used at a time mutually agreed upon by the employee and their manager. The maximum compensatory time off accrual shall be eighty (80) hours for non-safety employees, and (112) hours for Operations Battalion Chiefs. In the event that compensatory time off is cashed out, it will be paid at the employee’s current rate of pay.
Exhibit B
6 9. ADVANCEMENT IN WAGES
Wage ranges shall be divided into five (5) steps. Eligibility for step advancement shall be upon six (6) months of satisfactory service between the first and second steps and thereafter twelve (12) months of satisfactory service at the previous step.
An employee must always continue to maintain an acceptable level of performance and shall be evaluated annually. If the written evaluation does not support a continued acceptable effort, an individual’s wage may be reduced by the executive manager with the approval of the City Manager or their designee.

Employees who are hired or separate from the City mid-pay period shall receive prorated leave accruals based on the number of hours worked during that pay period.
Effective January 1, 2015, two vacation banks were established as follows:
1. Historical Bank: Includes all hours accrued as of January 1, 2015, which remain available until used or paid out.
2. New Bank: Includes hours accrued on or after January 1, 2015. Accruals shall cease when the total balance reaches two times the employee's annual accrual maximum.
B. Vacation/Comp Time Cash Out
Twice per year, employees will have the option to declare their intent to cash out accrued vacation and/or compensatory time off under the following conditions:
• Hours cashed out shall be paid at the employee’s regular base rate of pay. • Once an election is made it cannot be rescinded or modified.
Employees are required to complete the City’s standardized election form, which provides additional policy details.
C. Sick Leave
Exhibit B
13 Operations Battalion Chiefs (on a 56-hour average work week schedule) shall accrue sick leave at the rate of 5.1554 hours per completed pay period. All other MGMT group employees shall accrue sick leave at the rate of 3.6923 hours per completed pay period.
Employees who are hired or separate from the City mid-pay period shall receive prorated leave accruals based on the number of hours worked during that pay period. There is no cap on the number of sick hours that can be accrued. There is no cap on the number of sick hours that can be accrued.
Unused sick leave is not cashed out upon termination, resignation, retirement, or other separation from employment. Pursuant to CalPERS regulations, employees who retire within 120 days of their separation date from the City shall have their unused sick leave converted to service credit.
Sick leave may be used for the following purposes:
1. The diagnosis, care, or treatment of an existing health condition of, or preventative care (e.g., medical, dental, and vision appointments) for the employee themselves or any of the following family members of the employee: a child of any age or dependency status; a parent; a parent-in-law; a spouse; a registered domestic partner; a grandparent; a grandchild; a sibling, or a designated person.
2. For an employee who is a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other crime in order for the employee to engage in any of the following activities:
(1) obtain or attempt to obtain a temporary restraining order or other court assistance to help ensure the health safety or welfare of the employee or their child; or (2) obtain medical attention or psychological counseling, services from a shelter, program or crisis center, or (3) participate in safety planning or other actions to increase safety.
To request to use sick leave, if the need for leave is foreseeable, an employee must give the immediate manager reasonable advance written or verbal notice. If the need for sick leave is not foreseeable, the employee shall provide written or verbal notice of the need for the leave as soon as practicable. If the employee is required to be absent on sick leave for more than one day, the employee must keep the immediate manager informed each day as to the date the employee expects to return to work and the purpose of the leave.
Failure to request sick leave as required by this policy without good reason, may result in the employee being treated as absent without leave.
Evidence may be required by the department head or Human Resources in the form of a physician's certificate to support any absence that involves the illness of the employee or family member. Employees who use paid leave to address issues related to domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other crimes and who cannot provide advance notice of their need for leave must provide certification of the need for leave within a reasonable time thereafter.
Exhibit B
14 The City may conduct any necessary investigation, including requiring doctors' certificates, at any time, in cases where evidence of possible sick leave abuse develops.
Any unauthorized absence may be grounds for disciplinary action by the department head. Any employee who is absent for three (3) or more days without authorization shall be deemed to have resigned unless the City determines extenuating circumstances justify granting additional leave with or without pay.
D. Unanticipated Emergency Leave
Subject to manager approval and operational necessity, employees may use up to the following number of hours of sick leave per calendar year to be designated as “Unanticipated Emergency Leave” (UEL):
• Operations Battalion Chiefs: 48
• All other employees: 24
UEL is intended to provide limited schedule flexibility by allowing paid time off to address unexpected, urgent, and unavoidable personal matters requiring the employee’s immediate attention (e.g., a vehicle breakdown en route to work, a burst water pipe at home). UEL shall not be used as additional vacation time, to extend weekends or holidays, or for foreseeable events that could be reasonably scheduled in advance.
Employees must provide a brief explanation of the specific circumstances necessitating UEL on their timecard. Stating “personal day” or similar general terms does not meet the justification requirement for UEL use.
E. Holidays
1. Operations Battalion Chiefs
The designated holidays for Operations Battalion Chiefs are as follows:
1. New Year’s Day: January 1st
2. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: third Monday of January
3. President’s Day: third Monday of February

13. Christmas Eve: December 24th
14. Christmas Day: December 25th
Employees shall be paid 6.03 straight-time hours per completed 14-day pay period in lieu of fixed holidays, calculated using the employee’s base wage during that pay period. Employees who are hired or separate from the City mid-pay period shall receive prorated holiday hours based on the number of hours worked during that pay period.
Shift personnel recognized in this Wage and Benefit Summary are scheduled to work without regard to holidays. This fixed staffing requirement results in employees being regularly scheduled on holidays as a part of their normal full-time duties.
Non-shift personnel: Should a holiday occur on the regular workday of a non-shift employee (e.g., an Operations Battalion Chief on modified duty), they may work that shift as normal, use their vacation and/or comp bank to observe the holiday, or flex their work schedule in that work week accordingly.
2. All Other MGMT Employees
The designated holidays for all other MGMT employees as follows:
1. New Year’s Day: January 1st
2. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day: third Monday of January
3. President’s Day: third Monday of February
4. Memorial Day: last Monday in May
5. Juneteenth: June 19th
6. Independence Day: July 4th
7. Labor Day: first Monday in September
8. Indigenous Peoples’ Day (also observed as Columbus Day): second Monday in October
9. Veteran’s Day: November 11th
10. Thanksgiving: fourth Thursday in November
11. Day after Thanksgiving: Friday after Thanksgiving
12. Christmas Day: December 25th
13. Floating holiday: Any day in the calendar year
14. Floating holiday: Any day in the calendar year
When any of the above-listed holidays falls on a Saturday, it will be recognized on the preceding Friday. If it falls on a Sunday, it will be recognized on the following Monday.
Employees shall receive 8 hours per holiday.
Exhibit B
16 For employees on an alternative work schedule such as 9/80 or 4/10, when the holiday falls on a regular workday, the employee must use accrued vacation, comp time, admin leave, or floating holiday hours to make up the deficient hour(s) or, with manager approval, an employee may work additional hours in the same FLSA workweek in lieu of using accrued leave. Employees must designate on their timesheet which leave accrual to be used. The time may not be charged to sick or Unanticipated Emergency Leave.
Employees who are not regularly scheduled on a holiday are to observe the holiday on an alternative day during the work week.
Floating Holiday Hours: Employees will be provided sixteen (16) hours of floating holiday hours at the beginning of each calendar year. Floating holiday hours may be used at any point during the calendar year subject to manager approval. When a holiday falls on a day an employee is regularly scheduled to work more than 8 hours, they may use a portion of their floating holiday hours to make up any deficient hours (e.g., an employee who is regularly scheduled 9 hours on a Monday on which a holiday falls will receive 8 hours of holiday pay and can use 1 hour of floating holiday to receive a total of 9 hours of pay for the day). Employees may not use floating holiday hours to receive more hours than normally scheduled in one day. Unused floating holiday leave will not be carried over year to year and are not paid out upon separation or transfer to a position ineligible for floating holiday. Employees hired mid-year shall receive a bank of prorated floating holiday hours based on the number of full pay periods remaining in the calendar year.
Exempt Employees: Employees will earn 8 hours of holiday leave as each of the nonfloating holidays is observed. If an employee observes a holiday, they will record eight (8) hours of holiday leave for the day. If an employee is required to work on the holiday, they will record the number of regular hours worked for that day and only need to use the number of holiday hours to reach 40 hours in a work week. Holiday leave must be utilized before any other leave in the week a holiday occurs. For example, if an employee works on a Monday holiday but takes vacation on Thursday, they must use up to 8 hours of holiday leave before using vacation leave. Any unused holiday hours can be utilized for paid time off throughout the remaining current calendar year or will be paid out at the employee’s current hourly rate on the first paycheck in the following calendar year.
F. Administrative Leave
Employees exempt from overtime shall be granted 80 hours of administrative leave during the first full pay period in January each year. Unused administrative leave hours, up to a maximum of 56 hours, shall be cashed out at the employee’s current hourly rate on the first paycheck of the following calendar year. Any administrative leave hours in
Exhibit B
17 excess of 56 remaining at the end of the calendar year shall neither carry over nor be paid out.
Employees hired mid-year shall receive a prorated administrative leave bank based on the number of pay periods remaining in the calendar year. If an employee separates from City service mid-year, the value of any administrative leave hours used in excess of their prorated allotment shall be deducted from the employee’s final paycheck.
G. Coordination of Leave Accruals
Employees receiving partial wage replacement (e.g., workers’ compensation temporary disability payments) may use sick leave, vacation leave, floating holiday, admin leave, and/or compensatory time off in order to maintain, but not exceed, their regular base pay.
H. Bereavement Leave
Employees may utilize paid bereavement leave for the following purposes:
1. Funeral- or Service-Related Needs: Attending or arranging a funeral or memorial service, or to take care of family matters, that are related to the death of an immediate family member (defined as spouse, domestic partner, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild, and the corresponding family member by marriage).
2. Reproductive Loss Events: Any qualifying reproductive loss event as defined in Government Code § 12945.6.
Operations Battalion Chiefs are eligible for 48 hours of paid leave. All other MGMT employees are eligible for up to five (5) days of paid leave where the death or service is outside the state; and up to three (3) days of paid leave where the death or service are within the state, however, bereavement will be extended up to 5 days with the employee utilizing vacation, sick, comp time, admin leave, floating holiday, or unused holiday leave for the additional 16 hours. The employee may also elect to recognize those days as unpaid.
Paid bereavement leave shall not be authorized more than two (2) times within a calendar year and must be concluded within one (1) year of the death of the family member.
I. Jury Duty
Employees shall be paid for actual work hours missed because of time spent in jury service or court. The employee shall be responsible for notifying their manager as soon as possible upon receiving notice to appear for jury duty, make every reasonable effort to keep their manager advised as to the anticipated length of service, and return to work
Exhibit B
18 the day of or on the first day following the end of jury duty service depending on the time released.
J. Time Off to Vote
If any employee does not have sufficient time outside of working hours to vote, they may request up to two (2) hours of vacation or comp time, either at the beginning or end of scheduled working hours, to enable them to vote. Employees must request time off to vote from their manager at least two (2) days prior to the election.
K. Family and Medical Care Leave
The City provides family and medical care leave to eligible employees in accordance with applicable federal and state laws. Employees must provide appropriate medical certification or documentation supporting the need for the leave.
L. Military Leave
Military leave will be granted in accordance with federal and state law as well as rule
16.07 of the City’s Personnel Rules and Regulations. An employee requesting leave for this purpose shall promptly provide their manager and Human Resources with a copy of the military orders specifying the dates, site, and purpose of the activity or mission.
Within the limits of such orders, the manager may determine when the leave is to be taken and may modify the employee’s work schedule to accommodate the request for leave.
13. UNIFORM ALLOWANCE
Employees required to wear a uniform, including the Fire Chief, Deputy Fire Chief, Operations Battalion Chiefs, Fire Marshal/Battalion Chief, Police Chief, Deputy Police Chief, and Police Commanders, shall receive an annual uniform allowance of $1,200.
Newly hired employees shall be advanced one year’s uniform allowance on their first paycheck following their hire date. Annual payments shall commence with the second year of employment and be issued on the first paycheck in January of each calendar year. This payment is in recognition of expenses for the upcoming calendar year, not the previous year.
Employees who separate from City service prior to the completion of their first year shall return all uniform items purchased with the uniform allowance.
Uniform allowance is not reportable as pensionable compensation for PEPRA employees pursuant to Title 2 California Code of Regulations §§ 571.1.
Exhibit B
19 14. VEHICLE ASSIGNMENT
For MGMT group employees who require the use of an automobile on a regular 24-hour basis to perform their normal duties, the City may provide a City vehicle. Executive managers who are not assigned a City vehicle shall receive a car allowance of $115.38 per completed pay period. Such employees shall not be eligible for mileage reimbursement except when required to travel outside the county for City business. This allowance shall be prorated based on the number of hours worked in any pay period in which an employee is hired, separates, or transfers to a position ineligible for a car allowance.
15. EDUCATION REIMBURSEMENT
The City shall provide up to $3,000 per fiscal year under the Education Reimbursement Program. Courses not related to an employee’s current position may be approved if they constitute core or required elective units toward an approved degree program or if they relate to the employee’s promotional advancement goals within the City.

JANUARY 1, 2026 – DECEMBER 31, 2028
1. DEFINITIONS
Regular Employees: Employees hired for year-round, on-going positions.
Seasonal/Temporary Employees: Employees hired for a limited term appointment.
Appointments may be for a defined or unknown duration but ultimately, the assignment is not for a permanent position. Seasonal and temporary employees are at-will.
2. WAGES
Appendix A establishes the wage ranges for all part-time classifications. The City shall implement the following wage adjustments during the term of this agreement:
• Effective the first full pay period in January 2026, wage ranges shall be adjusted as identified in Appendix A.
• Effective the first full pay period in January 2027, employees will receive a two percent (2%) wage increase.
• Effective the first full pay period in January 2028, employees will receive a two percent (2%) wage increase.
3. BILINGUAL PAY

• Verbal bilingual services: $23.00 per pay period
• Written bilingual services: $6.00 per pay period
• Verbal and written bilingual services: $29.00 per pay period This incentive will be prorated if the employee separates mid-pay period based on the number of hours worked in the pay period. Employees shall be required to pass qualifying examinations administered by the City to determine the proficiency for bilingual assignments and retest for proficiency every five (5) years to maintain eligibility.
4. TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT PAY
A. Temporary Interim Assignments Within the Employee Group
Exhibit C
2 When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing by the City Manager to perform all duties of a position in a higher classification within the PT group for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee’s base salary shall be set at the lowest step in the higher classification that provides an increase to the assigned employee’s base wage of at least five percent (5%). An assigned employee’s base wage shall not be lower than the minimum or exceed the maximum defined wage range of the higher classification. The appointment will be documented through an offer letter that is placed in the employee’s personnel file. Upon reaching the eligibility for advancement pursuant to Article 9, the employee’s compensation shall be increased to the next applicable step in the wage range.
B. Temporary Interim Assignments Outside of the Employee Group When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing by the City Manager to perform all duties of a position in a higher classification outside of the PT group for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee shall be compensated at the lowest step in the higher classification that provides an increase to the assigned employee of at least five percent (5%) of their current compensation level, inclusive of base pay and all applicable incentives. An assigned employee’s base wage shall not be lower than the minimum or exceed the maximum defined wage range of the higher classification. The appointment will be documented through an offer letter that is placed in the employee’s personnel file. Upon reaching the eligibility for advancement pursuant to Article 9, the employee’s compensation shall be increased to the next applicable step in the wage range.
C. Additional Duties
When an employee is temporarily appointed in writing by the City Manager to perform additional duties in a higher classification for a period of at least 15 consecutive working days, that employee shall be provided compensation equal to 5% of their base pay. The assignment will be documented through an offer letter that is placed in the employee’s personnel file.
D. Use of Temporary Assignment Pay in Pension Calculations Compensation for temporary interim assignments must comply with Government Code § 20636 and Title 2 California Code of Regulations §§ 571 and 571.1 in order to be eligible for use in the calculation of CalPERS retirement benefits. Compensation for additional duties is not compliant for the purposes of pension calculations and will not be included in CalPERS reporting.
Exhibit C
3 5. PAYCHECKS
The City compensates employees through electronic bank transfers issued on Fridays, one week following the end of each two-week (biweekly) pay period. Electronic pay receipts (pay stubs) and W-2s are accessible through the Employee Self Service (ESS) web portal.
Employees unable to print these documents may request copies from Human Resources. All compensation shall be issued on one pay stub; separate checks will not be issued for payments such as vacation cash outs.
Payroll Corrections: If an error occurs in the payment of an employee’s wages, overtime, deductions, or leave balances/usage, the City shall adjust such compensation to the correct amount and provide written notice to the employee. In cases of underpayments, the City shall process the correction as soon as practicable, typically the following pay period. In the event of an overpayment, Human Resources will determine a reasonable repayment schedule of no more than 12 months in duration and inform the employee of the schedule directly, or through the department director. The affected employee shall be given an opportunity to discuss the schedule of repayment and, if necessary, to request an adjustment to the repayment schedule as needed and reasonable. Factors considered in determining a reasonable schedule for repayment include, but are not limited to, the length of time the overpayment has occurred, the amount of the overpayment, the employee’s normal wages, and other financial obligations of the employee. If an employee with an active repayment plan separates from City employment prior to full repayment, any remaining balance shall be deducted from the employee’s final wages and leave payouts, consistent with FLSA and applicable law.
6. HOURS OF WORK
All employees must accurately record time in/time out to the nearest five (5) minutes. All time spent for the benefit of the City must be reported as hours worked on timecards to ensure proper compensation. Employees may not “volunteer” work time to perform duties that are the same or similar as their stated or regular job duties. Employees have no authorization to work without compensation. Managers/supervisors are prohibited from requesting or allowing overtime-eligible employees to work off the clock.
Time worked of less than seven (7) minutes in any workday shall not be counted toward total hours worked. As such, hours paid shall be rounded to the nearest fifteen (15) minutes for payroll purposes. (E.g., an employee who starts work at 8:05 am, takes a lunch from 12:00 pm to 12:30 pm, and ends work at 4:55 pm worked 8 hours and 20 minutes. As hours paid is rounded to the nearest 15 minutes, they must record 8.25 hours on their timecard.) Employees may not earn wages and use leave simultaneously. Employees on leave who perform work during regular working hours shall adjust their leave use accordingly.
Exhibit C
4 7. MEAL & REST PERIODS
Breaks are provided to employees with the goal of providing adequate rest during a workday.
In general, an employee shall be provided a meal break if working a shift of six (6) or more hours, and a ten (10) minute rest break for every four (4) hours worked. Breaks can be waived upon mutual consent of the employee and management. Meal breaks are unpaid, shall be a minimum of 30 minutes, and shall begin when work stops at the work site and end when work resumes at the work site. Whenever possible, rest breaks will be taken at the work site.
If not taken at the work site, any travel time will be included in the ten (10) minute rest break period.
8. OVERTIME
All hours worked in excess of forty (40) hours in a designated work week, or on a holiday recognized under this agreement, shall be compensated at the rate of one and one–half (1.5) times the employee's regular rate of pay. All overtime must be approved in advance by a manager. The workweek for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime calculations shall consist of a seven (7) consecutive day period beginning Sunday at 12:00 am and ending Saturday at 11:59 pm.
For purposes of determining overtime eligibility, time worked shall include hours actually worked and time compensated as holidays, jury duty, sick leave, bereavement leave, and previously scheduled vacation and compensatory time off. If leave is used on the same day as hours worked without being pre-scheduled, such leave shall not be deducted from the employee’s leave balance, and the hours worked shall apply toward the employee’s regular work hours—not toward overtime.
9. ADVANCEMENT IN WAGES
Wage ranges shall be divided into five (5) steps. Eligibility for step advancement shall be as follows:
Seasonal Aquatics Staff: Employees become eligible for step advancement upon completion of 320 hours and one aquatics season of satisfactory service at the previous step. Examples:
• If an employee works 400 hours in one season, they become eligible to advance to the next step the following season, not during the current season. • If an employee works 280 hours in their first season, they become eligible to advance to the next step after completing the remaining 40 hours in their second season. o If this same employee works 360 hours in the second season, they will be eligible to advance to the subsequent step at the start of their third season.
Exhibit C
5 Non-Aquatics Staff: Employees become eligible for step advancement upon completion of 600 hours and twelve (12) months of satisfactory service at the previous step. If an employee completes 12 months at the previous step but has not yet worked 600 hours, they become eligible for advancement once the 600-hour threshold is met. The date on which they reach 600 hours becomes their new step-increase anniversary date.
An employee must always continue to maintain an acceptable level of performance and shall be evaluated annually. If the written evaluation does not support a continued acceptable effort, an individual’s wage may be reduced by the executive manager with the approval of the City Manager or their designee.
10. RETIREMENT

Effective January 1, 2015, two vacation banks were established as follows:
1. Historical Bank: Includes all hours accrued as of January 1, 2015, which remain available until used or paid out.
2. New Bank: Includes hours accrued on or after January 1, 2015. Accruals shall cease when the total balance reaches two times the employee's annual accrual maximum.

• Hours cashed out shall be paid at the employee’s regular base rate of pay. • Once an election is made it cannot be rescinded or modified.
Employees are required to complete the City’s standardized election form, which provides additional policy details.
C. Sick Leave
Regular Employees: Employees shall accrue sick leave at the rate of 0.0461 hours of sick leave per hour worked each pay period. Employees who are hired or separate from the City mid-pay period shall receive prorated leave accruals based on the number of hours worked during that pay period. There is no cap on the number of sick hours that can be accrued. There is no cap on the number of sick hours that can be accrued.
Seasonal/Temporary Employees: Employees are eligible for sick pay in accordance with California’s Paid Sick Leave law. They shall receive 40 hours (or five days, whichever is greater) of sick leave upon hire that can be used after 90 calendar days of employment. Employees rehired within one year are not subject to the 90-day waiting period. Sick leave balances shall reset each calendar year. Should an employee separate from the City then return within the same calendar year, unused sick leave from their prior appointment shall be restored for use for the remainder of the calendar year. Retired annuitants are not eligible for sick leave.
Unused sick leave is not cashed out upon termination, resignation, retirement, or other separation from employment. Pursuant to CalPERS provisions, employees who retire within 120 days of separating with the City shall have their unused sick leave converted to service credit.
Sick leave may be used for the following purposes:
1. The diagnosis, care, or treatment of an existing health condition of, or preventative care (e.g., medical, dental, and vision appointments) for the employee themselves or any of the following family members of the employee: a child of any age or dependency status; a parent; a parent-in-law; a spouse; a registered domestic partner; a grandparent; a grandchild; sibling; or a designated person.
2. For an employee who is a victim of domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other crime in order for the employee to engage in any of the following activities: (1) obtain or attempt to obtain a temporary restraining order or
Exhibit C
9 other court assistance to help ensure the health safety or welfare of the employee or their child; or (2) obtain medical attention or psychological counseling, services from a shelter, program or crisis center, or (3) participate in safety planning or other actions to increase safety.
To request to use sick leave, if the need for leave is foreseeable, an employee must give the immediate supervisor reasonable advance written or verbal notice. If the need for sick leave is not foreseeable, the employee shall provide written or verbal notice of the need for the leave as soon as practicable. If the employee is required to be absent on sick leave for more than one day, the employee must keep the immediate supervisor informed each day as to the date the employee expects to return to work and the purpose of the leave. Failure to request sick leave as required by this policy without good reason, may result in the employee being treated as absent without leave.
Evidence may be required by the department head or Human Resources in the form of a physician's certificate to support any absence that involves the illness of the employee or family member. Employees who use paid leave to address issues related to domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, or other crimes and who cannot provide advance notice of their need for leave must provide certification of the need for leave within a reasonable time thereafter.
The City may conduct any necessary investigation, including requiring doctors' certificates, at any time, in cases where evidence of possible sick leave abuse develops.
Any unauthorized absence may be grounds for disciplinary action by the department head. Any employee who is absent for three (3) or more days without authorization shall be deemed to have resigned unless the City determines extenuating circumstances justify granting additional leave with or without pay.
D. Unanticipated Emergency Leave
Subject to manager approval and operational necessity, regular employees may use up to 12 hours of sick leave per calendar year to be designated as “Unanticipated Emergency Leave” (UEL).
UEL is intended to provide limited schedule flexibility by allowing paid time off to address unexpected, urgent, and unavoidable personal matters requiring the employee’s immediate attention (e.g., a vehicle breakdown en route to work, a burst water pipe at home).

14. UNIFORMS
The City shall provide a uniform swimsuit for Lifeguard/Swim Instructors and Assistant Pool Managers annually. The value of this uniform is reported to CalPERS as compensation subject to retirement contributions for employees in classic retirement tiers (not PEPRA) up to a maximum of $10.00 per pay period.

Council Agenda Report
From: Ditas Esperanza, Capital Projects Engineer
Subject: Approval of a Resolution Awarding the Design Build Contract to Granite Construction for the South Vine Bridge Project
CEQA Determination: The City finds that the construction of the South Vine Bridge was previously analyzed as part of the adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the U.S. Highway 101 and State Route 46 West Interchange Modification Project, and pursuant to Pubic Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, there are no modifications or changes to the project or circumstances as a result of this action that would require additional environmental review. As such, the Council finds that this action is in furtherance of previously analyzed Interchange Modification Project, in the adopted MND and no additional environmental review is required.
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. The Paso Robles Gateway Annexation project is located northwest of the intersection of Highway 101 and Highway 46 West and includes the development of two hotels with 325 rooms, three commercial centers with approximately 75,600 square feet of space, a 30,000 square-foot conference center, 17 workforce residential units, and up to 80 resort residential units or a third hotel with 100 rooms.
2. In 2016, the City entered into a settlement agreement with the developers of the Gateway Annexation Project. The settlement agreement outlined the responsibility for the construction of the improvements needed to support the Gateway Project. In summary, in return for the right-of-way needed for the South Vine Bridge, the City will fund and ensure the construction of the South Vine Bridge.
3. In 2020, the City Council approved a Development Agreement (DA) with the developers of the Gateway Annexation project which requires the realignment of South Vine Street with Theatre Drive, involving not only construction of a new road, but also construction of a bridge in order to connect to Highway 46 West.
4. In September 2024, after a lengthy process, an encroachment permit was issued by Caltrans allowing the City to move forward with construction of the South Vine Bridge. The encroachment permit allows for the connection of the bridge to Caltrans’ right-of-way.
5. Staff advertised bids for the construction of the bridge and at the bid opening on April 17, 2025, three (3) bids were received.
6. Within the timeframe specified in the bid documents, a bid protest was filed against the apparent low bidder, Papich Construction. Papich responded that the bid protest had no merit.
7. After careful review and consultation with the City Attorney’s office, it was recommended that the Council reject all bids received and authorize staff to readvertise the project.
8. The project has been bifurcated so the design and construction of the bridge can be procured using the progressive design-build project delivery method (PDB), as allowed by Public Contract Code section 22185 et seq. Under the PDB procurement method, proposers prepare Statements of
Qualifications (SOQs) that are evaluated on a qualifications basis to determine the best value to the City. The pricing in the SOQs is limited to the costs for the design and preconstruction services (Phase
1.) One of the primary tasks during Phase 1 is the development and negotiations of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the project, including construction. Upon conclusion of Phase 1, staff will either present to City Council the recommended GMP and associated Amendment to the PDB Contract or recommend that the City Council exercise the contractual “off-ramp.” The City could then utilize the work product prepared during Phase 1, including the design, and procure the construction of the bridge independently, most likely through a traditional design/bid/build.
9. As noted in fact #8 above, the South Vine Bridge project was bifurcated as follows: the Bridge Project would follow the Progressive Design Build (PDB) process and the remaining work on Highway 46 West (roadway, retaining wall, curbs and gutters, and traffic signals, etc., in short, items outside the bridge footprint), would be procured utilizing the traditional design/bid/build procedures, in accordance with Public Works Contract Code. Advertising of bids for this construction is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.
10. On May 20, 2025, the City Council adopted an organizational conflict of interest policy, which is required when utilizing the PDB procurement method and on September 24, 2025, in consultation with the City Attorney’s office, a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the Progressive Design Build (PDB) project for the South Vine Bridge work was issued.
11. On the November 13, 2025 deadline to submit an SOQ, two (2) responses were received: one from Granite Construction (Granite) and one from Myers & Sons Construction (Myers).
12. Granite’s SOQ included a Phase 1 fee of $832,760, while Myers’ SOQ included a Phase 1 fee of $1,029,006. As noted below, the fee and rate proposal constitutes 15% of the evaluation criteria.
13. An evaluation committee—comprising the City’s South Vine Bridge preliminary designer (Stantec), the City’s construction management provider (MNS), the City’s Capital Project Engineer, and the Director of Public Works—reviewed the SOQs in their entirety and recommends that the City Council award the contract to Granite Construction.
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Approve Resolution 25-XXX authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Granite Construction, in the amount of $832,760.00, for the progressive design build of the South Vine Bridge project; or
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
The RFQ issued for the South Vine Bridge outlined the criteria that the City used to evaluate the proposer’s qualifications as follows: Understanding of the project (20) points, Project experience and references (20) points, Project team and representatives’ personnel (15) points, Project delivery cost development and management approach (30) points, and Fee and rate proposal (15) points.
The evaluation committee’s ratings were averaged and the final tabulation for each submittal:
Granite - 95.7 points
Myers - 83.3 points
Factors noted by the selection committee in ranking the Granite SOQ is the relevant experience of the proposed team including the subconsultant team and an overall superiority in their articulated approach to the project.
Although the scoring and resulting recommended award was based on the objective criteria contained in the Request of Qualifications, it is worth noting that several of Granite’s team have successfully delivered projects to the City. Further, a majority of Granite Team members are local within San Luis Obispo County, which is an asset in coordinating the work.
The evaluation committee recommends that the Granite team would be the best fit to successfully complete the design build contract for the South Vine Bridge.
Fiscal Impact
The fee proposal from Granite is $832,760. Funding for this project comes from several funding sources such as general, transit, transportation impact fees, American Rescue Plan Act funds as well as proceeds from issuance of debt. There are adequate appropriations to cover the cost of the design build, with staff coming back to City Council with the debt financing package during construction award. The item this evening has no debt issuance associated with it and will be funded with available local funds.
CEQA
The City finds that the construction of the South Vine Bridge was previously analyzed as part of the adopted Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for the U.S. Highway 101 and State Route 46 West Interchange Modification Project, and pursuant to Pubic Resources Code Section 21166 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, there are no modifications or changes to the project or circumstances as a result of this action that would require additional environmental review. As such, the Council finds that this action is in furtherance of previously analyzed Interchange Modification Project, in the adopted MND and no additional environmental review is required.
Recommendation (Option 2)
Approve Resolution 25-XXX, authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Granite Construction, in the amount of $832,760.00, for the progressive design build of the South Vine Bridge project.

Council Agenda Report
From: David Athey, Water Manager
Subject: Approval of a Resolution Authorizing the Sole Source Purchase and Installation of a Well Pump and Column for Well No. 18
CEQA Determination: The City finds that this action is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15301 (Existing Facilities).
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. The City owns, operates, and maintains approximately 175 miles of water mains and pipelines, four storage facilities, seven booster pump stations, 19 wells, two arsenic removal systems and two membrane filtration plants to produce, treat, and distribute water to the City’s water customers.
2. Operation, maintenance, and renewal of the City’s water system are entirely funded by the City’s Water Enterprise Fund. Financially, the water utility is operated as a self-supporting enterprise relying primarily on revenues from water rates to fund the cost of providing service and maintaining the city system.
3. Well No. 18 is located near the airport and pumps from the Paso Robles Groundwater Basin for City uses; it is one of the larger volume producers for the City.
4. Well No. 18 recently experienced a pump column and well-casing failure which allowed the gravel pack to enter the well and damage the existing pump. The existing pump column is about thirty years old and was severely corroded. The existing column cannot be reused.
5. Staff have determined that a new Gould 15-Stage Pump will be needed to replace the damaged pump.
6. The City’s Purchasing Policy requires a formal request for proposals for equipment costs that exceed $100,000. However, the bid requirements may be waived when it is in the City’s best interest to be served by a particular vendor.
7. Awalt and Sons Aqua Engineering has extensive knowledge of the City’s wells and is the local contractor that is authorized by the manufacturer to sell the Gould pump in this area. Therefore, obtaining additional quotes for the selected pump would not result in a lower price.
8. Staff received a $143,456.17 quote from the City’s well maintenance contractor for a new fifteen stage Gould pump, 540 feet of column, and associated installation costs.
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Approve Resolution 25-XXX authorizing a sole source expenditure of $143,456.17 for the purchase of a new column and pump for Well 18;
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
Well No. 18 pumps from the Paso Robles Groundwater Basin and provides a significant amount of water to the City’s water system. The well water is high quality and does not require additional treatment besides chlorination. It is therefore important that well pumping be restored as soon as possible since this is one of the City’s lower cost water sources and a large volume water producer. The well was installed in the early 1990’s and besides a new pump installation in 2008, has been in continuous operation since that time.
An inspection of the approximately 30-year-old well column indicated that corrosion caused a softball sized hole. The well column carries water from the pump to the surface. The column hole was present for some time and the well water that escaped through this hole eventually wore a hole in the well casing.
The hole in the well casing was about the size of a baseball, which eventually allowed the well’s gravel pack to enter the well. The well gravel pack separates the well casing from the surrounding groundwater formation. The 3/8-inch gravel settled in the bottom of the well and was also drawn into the pump, causing irreparable impeller damage. The well-casing hole is now repaired and once the well is cleaned out, the well will be ready for the new pump and column.
City staff sized and selected a Gould pump based on an engineering analysis of the well and aquifer characteristics. The Gould pump meets the pressure head and flow requirements for Well 18 and other comparable pumps have been found to be significantly more expensive. Staff secured a pump and material quotation from the City’s authorized pump supply contractor. Awalt and Sons Aqua Engineering has extensive knowledge of the City’s wells and is the only local contractor that is authorized by the manufacturer to sell the Gould pump in this area. Therefore, obtaining additional quotes for the selected pump would not result in a lower price. Selecting an alternative pump would also be more expensive. Staff have also reviewed the quote and believe it is reasonable and in line with other pump purchases made in the last few years.
Fiscal Impact
The total cost for pump and column, including installation, freight and taxes, is $143,456.17. See Exhibit A in Attachment 1 for the Awalt and Sons Aqua Engineering quote. This is an expense that occurs when pumps and equipment are worn out and is funded entirely through the Water Fund’s operating budget.
CEQA
The City finds that this action is exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §15301, Existing Facilities. This action is for the repair and maintenance of an existing facility that will not result in the expansion of Wells 18’s former use.
Recommendation (Option 2)
Approve Resolution 25-XXX authorizing a sole source expenditure of $143,456.17 for the purchase of a new column, pump, and installation for Well 18.

Council Agenda Report
From: Leslie Frazier, City Engineer/Deputy Community Development Director Subject: Accepting the Completed Engineering and Traffic Study and Conducting First Reading by Title Only of an Ordinance to Update and Enforce Posted Speed Limits, and Waiving Further Reading
CEQA Determination: The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15061, subd. (b)(2)-(3), 15301, and 15378.
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. The City is required to complete an Engineering and Traffic Survey (E&TS) for radar enforceable speed limits per the California Vehicle Code (CVC).
2. The previous speed zone survey update was completed and approved by City Council in June 2023.
3. Since that action, supplemental surveys have been conducted to establish appropriate speed limits for newly constructed roadways accepted by the City Council. In addition, staff identified several streets requiring re-evaluation, as well as segments that had not previously undergone a speed survey.
4. The City retained Central Coast Transportation Consulting to complete the E&TS for the City.
5. Based on the survey, two roadway segments, Vine Street and South River Road, were found to warrant a reduction of 5 MPH from the previously adopted speed survey, due to current land use and field conditions.
6. In addition to these adjustments, the updated survey establishes speed limits for six roadway segments where speed zones were either not previously set or required speed limits to be established for newly constructed roadways.
7. A summary of the evaluated street segments, including existing and recommended posted speeds, is provided in Exhibit A. The completed E&TS is provided in Exhibit B.
8. The Police and Public Works Departments have reviewed the speed study and concur with the recommendations in the report summarized and attached.
9. Due to the Vinedo development, the master developer, Olsen 212, will be required to implement the newly adopted speed limits by installing appropriate regulatory signage along new roads. The City will install regulatory signage on existing roadways where speed zones were not previously set or reduced.
10. The work will include furnishing and installing speed limit signs, removing or replacing existing signs where necessary, and coordinating with City staff for final placement to ensure compliance with the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD).
11. In addition to posting newly adopted speed limit signage, Spring Street will have newly posted speed limit signs, and 13th Street will have two signs installed between Pine Street and Riverside Avenue, to appropriately sign the roadways based on existing speeds.
12. For the signs that are city responsibility, the installation will be completed under a unit-price contract administered through the Public Works Department. The estimated cost for materials, labor, and inspection is $5,000.
13. A summary of new or replaced speed limit signs is provided in Exhibit C.
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Introduce for first reading, by title only, and waive further reading of Ordinance XXXX, accepting the completed Engineering and Traffic Survey and authorizing the update and enforcement of the posted speeds accordingly, and authorizing appropriations from the General Fund in the amount of $5,000 to cover the contract for installation of regulatory speed limit signs;
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
In accordance with the California Vehicle Code (CVC) and the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA-MUTCD), Engineering and Traffic Surveys (E&TS) are required to justify the establishment and enforcement of speed limits. The purpose of these surveys is to ensure that posted speed limits are reasonable, safe, and enforceable through radar.
The City’s last comprehensive speed zone survey update was completed and adopted by the City Council in 2023. Since that time, newly constructed roadway segments have been completed to accommodate development within the City. Additionally, locations have been identified requiring re-evaluation, as well as segments that had not previously undergone a speed survey. Supplemental speed surveys were therefore conducted to evaluate prevailing speeds on newly constructed roadways, review corridors where conditions have changed, and address locations lacking a prior valid speed survey.
The surveys were completed by Central Coast Transportation Consulting in accordance with Caltrans and CVC requirements, including spot speed measurements, roadway condition reviews, collision history review, and engineering judgment. Generally, speed limit postings are set at the nearest 5 MPH increment of the 85th percentile speed of free-flowing traffic (as measured in the field). Without completed speed surveys, radar cannot be used to enforce speed limits.
Based on the speed zone survey results, staff recommends that the City Council adopt an ordinance accepting the completed E&TS and updating and establishing the prima facie speed limits for the evaluated street segments. The ordinance will supersede prior conflicting resolutions or ordinances for those segments. Adoption of these speed limits will ensure the City remains in compliance with State law, supports consistent enforcement, and reflects current operating conditions on the roadway network.
Fiscal Impact
The City will incur an estimated $5,000 in costs for furnishing and installing new regulatory speed limit signs along the evaluated street segments. This work will be completed under contract administered by the City. Operating street maintenance appropriations will be used to cover the cost of this contract, and no further action is necessary.
CEQA
The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (b)(2)-(3), 15378 because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the establishment of speed limits as provided herein may
have a significant effect on the environment. In addition, the ordinance includes findings that the action is exempt under State CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) and categorically exempt under section 15301 (Existing Facilities), because it involves the operation and minor alteration of existing public streets and related traffic control devices.
Recommendation
Introduce for first reading, by title only, and waive further reading of Ordinance XXXX, accepting the completed Engineering and Traffic Survey and authorizing the update and enforcement of the posted speeds accordingly, and authorizing appropriations from the General Fund in the amount of $5,000 to cover the contract for installation of regulatory speed limit signs.

Exhibit C
Council Agenda Report
From: Leslie Frazier, City Engineer/Deputy Community Development Director Subject: Update to Resolution 24-020 Correcting the Approved Reimbursement Amount for the Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement with River Oaks Reserve, LLC (Tract 3105) CEQA Determination: This action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15378(b)(5), as it is an administrative activity of government that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. On March 5, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution 24-020, approving an Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement with River Oaks Reserve, LLC (“Developer”) for the construction of the 24-inch recycled water main serving Tract 3105.
2. The staff report and engineering cost estimate prepared for the March 5, 2024, action accurately identified the full reimbursement amount owed to the Developer based on the differential between an 8-inch C900 PVC line and the required 24-inch ductile iron line.
3. The Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement attached to the original staff report was fully executed by all parties—the Developer, the City Manager, and City Attorney—and contains the correct reimbursement amount supported by the engineering cost analysis and City review.
4. Due to a clerical omission, Resolution 24-020 understated the total reimbursement by $169,853.28, creating a discrepancy between the resolution text and the executed Agreement and staff report.
5. The purpose of this corrective action is solely to revise the adopted resolution so that the reimbursement amount matches the executed agreement and staff report.
6. The original amount shown in Resolution 24-020 totaled $1,032,735.81, whereas the correct reimbursement amount per staff report and agreement totaled $1,202,589.09.
7. In the interim, the City is processing an initial reimbursement payment to the Developer based on the previously approved amount, which represents a partial reimbursement of the total $1,032,735.81 authorized under the executed Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement. This initial payment will be issued while the corrective resolution is brought forward to align the adopted authorization with the full reimbursable amount.
Options
1. Take no action (this would leave the adopted reimbursement amount inconsistent with the executed Agreement and supporting documentation);
2. Approve Resolution 25-XXX, revising Resolution 24-020 by $169,853.28 for the Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement with River Oaks Reserve, LLC;
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
The reimbursement amount approved by the City Council in Resolution 24-020 contained a clerical error that omitted $169,853.28 from the total reimbursement authorized under the fully executed Oversize Facility Reimbursement Agreement. The staff report, engineering cost analysis, and signed Agreement all correctly reflected the authorized reimbursement amount.
This action does not modify the project, scope, or obligations of either party. It simply corrects the previously adopted resolution so that it accurately reflects the reimbursement amount already approved through the executed Agreement.
Adoption of the corrective resolution ensures consistency between Council actions, the public record, and the executed agreement, and maintains administrative accuracy for project accounting and reimbursement processing.
Fiscal Impact
The correction increases the reimbursement cap by $169,853.28, aligning the adopted resolution with the amount previously approved through the staff report and Agreement. No new fiscal impacts are created, as the correction reflects obligations already incurred.
CEQA
This action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §15378(b)(5), as it is an administrative activity of government that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

Council Agenda Report
From: Leslie Frazier, City Engineer/Deputy Community Development Director Subject: Acceptance of Final Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024, Brown Lot Line Adjustment (P25-0051) CEQA Determination: The proposed lot line adjustment is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15305 ("Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations") of the CEQA Guidelines.
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. On August 12, 2025, Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024/P25-0051 was approved by City staff.
2. The project involves a proposed lot line adjustment between four existing commercial lots located at 2725, 2735, 2755 Theatre Drive, and 70 Nutwood Circle.
3. The adjustment aims to improve access and utility placement to facilitate future lot development.
4. There are no public improvements required as part of the Conditions of Approval for the project.
5. The resulting four parcels will range from 1.15 to 2.4 acres and exceed the minimum 2,000 square foot lot size required for the C1-PD zoning district.
6. The adjustment procedure is allowed under Section 66412(d) of the Government Code, State of California Subdivision Map Act.
7. The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as a Class 5 exemption for minor alteration in land use limitations.
8. The City Engineer reviewed the conditions of approval and determined compliance. The City Engineer is recommending approval of PRAL25-0024 for recordation based on the Project’s compliance with the Conditions of Approval.
9. The Acting City Surveyor has reviewed PRAL25-0024 and has determined that the Map complies with the applicable provisions of the Subdivision Map Act and has determined that the Map is technically correct.
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Accept and approve Final Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024 for recordation;
2. Refer Final Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024 back to staff with specific directions for further consideration;
3. Provide alternative directions to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
The proposed lot line adjustment restructures four existing commercial parcels to improve access, utility placement, and overall development potential. The adjustment does not increase the number of parcels and maintains consistency with the applicable zoning standards, with all resulting parcels exceeding the minimum lot size requirements for the C1-PD district. The modification complies with Section 66412(d) of the Subdivision Map Act, which permits minor boundary adjustments that do not create new parcels. The project qualifies for a Class 5 CEQA exemption, as it constitutes a minor alteration in land use limitations without any potential for environmental impact. All required Conditions of Approval—including
preparation of final mapping documents, installation of property corners, and submittal of digital copies of approved documents, have been reasonably satisfied by the applicant.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact as resulting from Final Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024 recordation, as no additional lots are being created through this action.
CEQA
The proposed Lot Line Adjustment is categorically exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15305 ("Minor Alterations in Land Use Limitations") of the CEQA Guidelines. This exemption applies because the project involves a minor boundary adjustment between existing parcels, and consistent with the criteria for Class 5 exemptions, it does not change the existing land use or density of the affected properties. The adjustment does not create any new parcels or result in significant environmental impacts, and the application of fixed, objective standards by local officials makes the approval process a ministerial action, further supporting its exemption status from discretionary CEQA review. The project meets all relevant criteria for a Class 5 exemption and no exceptions to the exemption apply.
Recommendation (Option 2)
It is recommended that City Council:
1. Approve Resolution 25-XXX accepting Final Parcel Map PRAL 25-0024 for recordation and direct the City Clerk to state the Council’s approval on the Map; and
2. Direct the City Engineer to record all documents required by the Conditions of Approval.

Subject: Food Truck Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation for Food Truck Permitting Requirements and Operational Standards
CEQA Determination: The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.
Date: December 16, 2025
Facts
1. On October 1, 2024, City Council approved a variety of updates to the Paso Robles Zoning Code, Title 21 of the Paso Robles Municipal Code, including updates to Section 21.69.120, “Food Trucks and Food Truck Courts” (Attachment 1). This section of the municipal code establishes the permit requirements and operational standards for food trucks operating within the City limits. The rules codified staff policy on food trucks that had existed since 2019.
2. All food trucks operating are required to comply with the operational requirements of Section
21.69.120, have a valid City business license, and have an active County of San Luis Obispo Environmental Heath Permit.
3. In addition to the above requirements, food trucks operating at one location for more than seven days in a calendar year, but less than one year, are required to obtain a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) and must meet the findings provided in Section 21.20.070, “Findings for Approval and Revocation” (Attachment 2).
4. At the May 6, 2025 City Council meeting, Councilmember Gregory requested staff bring back a discussion item regarding food truck regulations.
5. Community Development staff have been working with Community Service Officers, the Wastewater Pretreatment Coordinator, the Fire Marshal, and the Finance Department to analyze the existing food truck requirements and permitting process to initiate a discussion with City Council to determine the most effective path forward for regulating food trucks
6. On August 5, 2025, City Council discussed a ‘Legislative Update and Review Regarding Food Truck Regulations’. Staff presented the current permitting process as well as some of the challenges in enforcing the food truck standards and permitting requirements due to ambiguity in the municipal code. Members of the public were invited to participate in the discussion and provided feedback. The City Council voted to establish an Ad Hoc Committee of the City Council to be comprised of Councilmember Gregory and Councilmember Bausch to address food truck regulations and report back to City Council within 6 months with recommendations for future action based on the discussion.
7. The first Food Truck Regulation Review City Council Ad Hoc Committee meeting was held on September 22, 2025. The priority of the meeting was to gather more in-depth feedback from the public. The meeting had a high level of participation from the public. Ad Hoc committee members directed staff to collect additional information on the following topics:
a. a. Generators that can meet Noise Ordinance requirements,
b. Comparison of the current food truck policies listed on the City’s website and the standards in the Zoning Ordinance,
c. Clarification on Fire inspection requirements,
d. Additional information on complaints received by the City regarding food trucks, e. Policies and options for food trucks utilizing tables, chairs, and shade structures, and f. Clarification of how the 7-day rule applies to food trucks hired to serve food at special events (not operated by the City).
8. The second Food Truck Regulation Review City Council Ad Hoc Committee meeting was held on November 12th, 2025. The priority of the meeting was to report back on topics brought to light at the first ad hoc meeting. This included details of previous food truck complaints, providing clear and concise rules that align with other departments’ requirements, and additional information on fire department inspections. Staff also provided draft recommendations to gather feedback from the Ad Hoc Committee members and from the public. Ad hoc committee members made recommendations were made for the following topics:
a. Generator Noise,
b. Accessory Furniture,
c. Temporary Use Permit permitting requirements,
d. Setbacks, and
e. Proximity to Downtown.
Ad Hoc Meeting Process
The goal of the Ad Hoc Committee was to facilitate a review of food truck regulations to be reported back to City Council within 6 months. The first meeting was held on September 12, 2025 and focused on outlining the existing permit requirements and operational standards as well as receiving feedback from the public. The second meeting was held November 12, 2025 and focused on reviewing draft recommendations based on the feedback from the first meeting and additional staff analysis. Spanish translation services were provided at both ad hoc meetings. No changes were made to the food truck regulations after either of the ad hoc meetings.
This report focuses on the recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee members.
Community Outreach
The following list details the outreach efforts that were made to notify the public of each ad hoc committee meeting.
Social Media Posts (Next-door, Facebook, and Instagram) Press Release
Information on the City’s Webpage: https://www.prcity.com/foodtrucks Post Cards mailed to the Downtown Main Street Association, Hispanic Business Association, Chamber of Commerce, Temporary Use Permit holders (active, pending, and expired), and mobile Food Truck/Vendor Business License holders (active, pending, and expired) Emails sent to subscribers of the “Food Truck Ad Hoc Committee” mailing list The same outreach effort has been made to notify the public of the City Council meeting to review the proposed recommendations to City Council.
Options
1. Take no action;
2. Provide specific direction regarding Operational Regulations and/or amendments to the Zoning Code; or
3. Provide alternative direction to staff.
Analysis and Conclusions
Generators
Food truck operators reported they found it hard to find generators that meet both CARB (California Air Resource Board) standards and noise requirements. Prior to the second Ad Hoc Committee meeting, staff compiled a shortlist of generators with average noise level and EPA/CARB compliance and found the typical decibel level of generators often exceeds the level required by Paso Robles Zoning Code Section
21.83.040. In addition, there are only a handful of CARB compliant generators currently on the market.
Although the availability of CARB complaint and quieter generators may become available over time, the ad hoc committee members do not want existing food truck operators’ generators to be a limiting factor in their ability to operate within City limits. However, there are many acoustic panels/boxes on the market that damper the noise without interfering with the operation.
Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation #1: Generator Noise
Operational Requirement Update
Food trucks will utilize generator acoustic panels to protect adjacent land uses and the public right-ofway from excessive noise and to comply with the Noise Ordinance.
Accessory Furniture
In response to public comments received about the extensive use of tables, chairs, and shade structures, City staff began prohibiting them in about May 2025. During the City Council discussion in August and both ad hoc committee meetings, food truck operators expressed confusion and concern about the new policy. Food truck operators have acknowledged some regulation of furniture may be needed to prevent sprawl, but also expressed the benefit of allowing shade and comfort for guests in heat and rain.
Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation #2: Accessory Furniture Operational Requirement Update
Accessory furniture is not permitted:
1. In the public right of way (e.g., sidewalk or parkways), or
2. Where it will obstruct circulation, ingress, or egress The following accessory furniture is permitted:
3. One (1) shade structure, no more than 120 square feet in size,
4. Table(s) totaling no more than 24 square feet in size,
5. Eight (8) chairs
Regardless of City policy, pursuant to County health requirements, accessory furniture outside of the food truck cannot be used for preparation of food or improper storage of food.
Enforcement
The Police Department’s Community Service Officers are tasked with enforcing the City’s food truck standards and permitting requirements. In early 2025, the number of complaints about food trucks escalated, and officers began making more frequent contact with food truck operators. At the time, there was confusion about permitting requirements for operating a food truck in Paso Robles. Officers requested additional resources and guidance from the Community Development Department to help educate food truck operators. In an effort to assist with enforcement effort, Community Development staff has created informational flyers with a QR code linked to the City’s food truck webpage. There is now interdepartmental coordination to track food truck permitting.
Despite the increased awareness, Community Service officers still struggle to track food trucks operating out of compliance. In addition, a system is needed to ensure food truck operators who do obtain a permit to operate at a single location continue to abide by the operational standards and conditions of their permit through their duration.
Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation #3: Expanded Temporary Use Permit Requirement Zoning Code Amendment
Amend Paso Robles Municipal Code Section 21.69.120 to require a Temporary Use Permit (TUP) for ALL food trucks operating in the City and vending to the public.
Exception - food truck operating as a caterer for an event are not required to have a TUP.
Ad Hoc Committee Recommendation #4: Special Event Venue Temporary Use Permit Requirement Zoning Code Amendment
Amend Paso Robles Municipal Code Section 21.69.120 to require on-site commercial businesses hosting more than 7 events in a year to obtain a Temporary Use Permit for food trucks to participate in reoccurring events.
Setbacks
The current food truck operational requirements do not require a setback for a food truck. When placed too close to the public right-of-way, food trucks or waiting patrons have the potential to interfere with public travel. In addition, generators placed too close to property lines may become a nuisance.
The Ad Hoc Committee members requested staff bring a recommendation for appropriate food truck setbacks for City Council consideration .
Ad Hoc Committee / Staff Recommendation #5: food truck setbacks from sidewalks Operational Requirement Update
1. Require a minimum setback of 9 feet (half the length of an uncovered parking space) for food trucks with service windows facing the public right-of-way (see Attachment 5).
2. No setback is required for food truck service window facing internally into the commercial lot.
3. Shade canopies, tables, and chairs area allowed within the food truck setback.
4. Allow the Zoning Administrator to increase or decrease setback requirements for individual temporary use permits to account for unique site configurations.
Proximity to Downtown
The majority of complaints received regarding food trucks in early 2025 were related to trucks operating downtown near the park, where there is a high concentration of brick-and-mortar food businesses. At the second ad hoc committee meeting, Staff presented several options for limiting food trucks in the downtown. One would have prohibited food trucks in the s-1 zoning district. Other options would have placed a buffer around City Park.
The Ad Hoc Committee requested Staff refine the idea of a buffer around the park for City Council consideration.
Staff recommends independently operated food trucks (those not part of a special private event on the site of another business) be prohibited on the lots adjacent to City Park (immediately across Spring Street, Pine Street, 11th Street, and 12th Street as demonstrated in the map below. This prohibition would not apply to City approved events in or around the park.
Ad Hoc Committee / Staff Recommendation #6: City Park food truck buffer Operational Requirement Update
1. Temporary Use Permits will not be granted on private property within 100 feet of City Park.
Properties Adjacent to the Park
City Facilitated Food Truck Events
At the second Ad Hoc Committee meeting, committee members and food truck operators expressed a desire for some form of a regularly scheduled food truck night, or an overall system that would allow food trucks to operate in the downtown area within an organized framework. Implementing such a program would involve numerous considerations, including determining who would organize, manage, and oversee the events, as well as identifying an appropriate location. Possible locations discussed include the City Hall/Library parking lot, the Marv’s Pizza parking lot, or a designated area on a City street.
In addition to these operational questions, the City would need to evaluate its staffing capacity to support the program. This analysis would need to account for the anticipated frequency of the events, the specific location selected, and the processes required for permitting, setup, monitoring, and cleanup. The City would also need to consider the administrative effort required to establish a fair and transparent method for selecting participating food trucks—whether through a lottery system, a prequalification process, a rotation schedule, or another approach. Depending on the scale and regularity of the food truck nights,
City staff involvement could range from minimal oversight to a significant, ongoing operational commitment. A clear understanding of these staffing and administrative implications would be essential before determining the feasibility and structure of any such program. If this is of interest, staff recommends this item be incorporated into the budget process and goal setting for next fiscal year.
City Council Consideration
Is the City Council interested in committing the necessary City resources, including staffing, administration, and use of City facilities or streets, to support the development and ongoing operation of a regularly occurring, organized food truck event?
Fire Department Inspection
Paso Robles Municipal Code Section 21.69.120.D.11 states, All food trucks shall be inspected and approved by the Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services Department prior to issuance of its initial business license and from time to time thereafter in the discretion of the Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services Department. At a minimum, all cooking equipment producing grease-laden vapors shall be protected by a UL 300 listed automatic fire extinguish system. A Class K fire extinguisher shall be provided within each vending vehicle at an accessible location. All fire protection equipment shall be property maintained and serviced at intervals required by the California Fore code.
Between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2025, fire inspections of food trucks were delegated to the County of San Luis Obispo Environmental Health Department, which caused some confusion among food truck operators. However, the 2025 Fire Code will allow the City of Paso Robles Fire Department to regain control and conduct necessary inspections to ensure fire safety on all food trucks. Effective January 1, 2026, the City of Paso Robles Fire Department will again be the agency responsible for inspection food trucks annually and hood systems biannually.
In addition, the Fire Marshal is working with the Central Coast Fire Prevention Association to develop a collaborative, regional system for inspecting food trucks one time instead of separately for each jurisdiction. Once the program is in place, a food truck operator would receive an inspection by one of the participating jurisdictions, which would then be valid throughout the county. Additional information will be made available to the public as soon as possible.
Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact as a result of this City Council Discussion. Fiscal impact will be analyzed prior to finalizing any recommendations supported by City Council.
CEQA
The City finds that this action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to State Guidelines Section State CEQA Guidelines, §§ 15060, subd. (c)(2)-(3), 15378.
Recommendation (Option 2)
Provide specific direction to staff regarding changes to Operational Regulations and/or amendments to the Zoning Code regarding the following issues: a.) Generator Noise, b.) Accessory Furniture, c.) Temporary Use Permit permitting requirements, d.) Setbacks, and e.) Proximity to Downtown.
Additionally, should City staff pursue additional research and provide recommendations regarding food truck events within the downtown area.
