PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAF REPOR
Agenda Item #9.D
Meetin Date: pril 07, 2026
TITLE:
Annual Military Equipment Report Per California Assembly Bill 481 RECOMMENDATION:
No action recommended; for information only.
DISCUSSION:
Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481), codified at Government Code sections 7070 through 7075, requires a law enforcement agency (LEA) to obtain approval from the applicable governing body, via adoption of a “military equipment” use policy by ordinance, prior to the LEA funding, acquiring, or using military equipment as defined by the bill.
On April 5, 2022, the Council adopted Ordinance O-2022-003 (Military Equipment Use Policy Ordinance), codified as Pismo Beach Municipal Code Chapter 9.26, in accordance with the requirements of AB 481. The bill requires that staff return to the Council annually to provide a report on the City’s Military Equipment Policy and identify any necessary updates to the Policy (Attachment 1). The bill also requires staff to report any complaint(s) or concern(s) regarding the use of the equipment, results of any internal audits on the use of the equipment, the annual costs for the equipment, the quantity possessed by the agency, and the intention to purchase additional equipment in the following year.
Staff reviewed department records and determined there were no complaints or concerns raised regarding the use of the equipment in 2025. Staff’s internal audit of the equipment use determined there were no violations of the City’s Military Equipment Policy. An internal audit (Attachment 2) was completed for calendar year 2025 documenting the use of the equipment, the annual costs for the equipment, and the quantity possessed.
Staff does not intend to purchase any additional military equipment this year.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff does not recommend any changes be made to the Policy, and recommends that the Council accept this report as information only.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact from accepting the Annual Military Equipment Report.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAF REPOR
Agenda Item #9.E
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2027 from the Pismo Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau / Lodging Business Improvement District (LBID) Advisory Board; Declaration of the City Council’s Intention to Levy an Annual Assessment for the LBID for FY 2027
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2027 from the Pismo Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau / Lodging Business Improvement District (LBID) Advisory Board, declaring the City Council’s intention to levy an annual assessment for the LBID for FY 2027, and directing the City Clerk to schedule a public hearing for April 21, 2026, to consider levying the assessment.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The primary purpose of this agenda item is to present for approval the Conference and Visitors Bureau / Lodging Business Improvement District (CVB/LBID) Advisory Board’s LBID Annual Report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2027, recommend that the Council declare its intention to levy an annual assessment for the LBID for FY 2027, and direct the City Clerk to schedule a public hearing for April 21, 2026, to consider levying the assessment.
Background
The Lodging Business Improvement District (LBID) is an assessment district created by the Pismo Beach City Council on August 4, 2009 via Ordinance O-2009-008 at the request and approval of a majority of the lodging businesses operating in the City. These lodging businesses requested to raise money by assessing themselves, and then to use that money to promote Pismo Beach lodging businesses. Each year since then, the City Council has approved an annual assessment for lodging properties at 1% of gross lodging revenues. The assessments have been made to fund promotional activities for lodging and other tourism opportunities within Pismo Beach.
Pismo Beach Municipal Code Section 3.26.110 provided for a three-year sunset provision for the LBID (in early September 2012). After the passage of the LBID ordinance, California voters enacted Proposition 26, which amended the California Constitution to revise the definition of “tax”. This set in motion the fact that the LBID assessment, in order to be extended beyond the September 2012 sunset date, was subject to compliance with Proposition 26 to avoid being considered a special tax requiring a 2/3 majority vote of the electorate to pass. With the renewal of the LBID following adoption of Proposition 26, the purposes for which LBID assessments could be expended were more limited than when the LBID was initially established. As such, the improvements and activities permitted under Section 3.26.030 of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code include:
Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.E-1
Packet Page 41
a) The general promotion of lodging operations within the LBID shall include costs of programs and physical improvements as specified in the business plan to be adopted annually.
b) The marketing of conference, group, and vacation business that benefits the local lodging industry in the district.
c) The marketing of the LBID to the travel industry in order to benefit the local lodging industry in the district.
d) Administration of LBID, including collection and enforcement of assessments.
Additional 1% LBID Assessment for Physical Improvements Starting in FY 2019, the Advisory Board and City Council approved an additional 1% LBID assessment starting on January 1, 2019, to be annually approved to provide the funding to complete some significant community enhancing projects that would help promote and benefit the lodging businesses in the City of Pismo Beach. The following list provides the status of the various visitor serving projects that were supported in whole or in part by the LBID 1% assessment for physical improvements.

Some of these projects are multi-year projects. As such, the amount of these proposed projects that could be accomplished depends on how many years the additional 1% assessment is continued. These projects would need to be further defined with City staff working with the CVB/LBID Advisory Board and supported by the City Council.
Since passage of the LBID, the total amount of assessments collected has been $25.90 million, including $16.72 million from the original 1% assessment and $9.17 million from the 1% assessment for physical improvements.
Annual Report Requirement
Section 3.26.100 of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code states that the CVB/LBID Advisory Board shall review the implementation of the code chapter, the implementation of programs and activities funded through the code chapter, and advise the City Council on the amount of the district’s assessments and on the services, programs, and activities to be funded by the assessments, and perform such other duties as required by the Business Improvement District Law, including preparing the Annual Report required by California Streets and Highways Code Section 36533. California Streets and Highways Code Section 36533 requires that the report include information addressing the following six items:
(1) Any proposed changes in the boundaries of the parking and business improvement area or in any benefit zones within the area.
(2) The improvements and activities to be provided for that fiscal year. (3) An estimate of the cost of providing the improvements and the activities for that fiscal year.
(4) The method and basis of levying the assessment in sufficient detail to allow each business owner to estimate the amount of the assessment to be levied against his or her business for that fiscal year.
(5) The amount of any surplus or deficit revenues to be carried over from a previous fiscal year.
(6) The amount of any contributions to be made from sources other than assessments levied pursuant to this part.
FY 2027 Annual Report
See Attachment 1.A: Updated CVB/LBID Advisory Board Annual Report for FY 2027.
Public Hearing
If the City Council approves the CVB/LBID Advisory Board’s recommendation this evening, a public hearing regarding the assessment will be scheduled for the next City Council meeting. Pismo Beach Municipal Code Section 3.26.060 states that “After approval of the annual report, the Pismo Beach City Council shall follow the hearing process as outlined in [California Streets and Highways Code] Section 36534 of the Law to levy assessments for the ensuing fiscal year. At the public hearing, the Pismo Beach Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.E-3
Packet Page 43
City Council shall hear and consider all protests to the levy of assessment. If written protests are received from lodging operations in the district proposed to pay fifty percent (50%) percent or more of the annual assessment, no further proceedings to impose the levy of assessments shall take place during the ensuing fiscal year.” If protests received do not represent 50% or more, the Council may proceed to adopt a resolution imposing an assessment for FY 2027.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) approving the Annual Report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 from the Pismo Beach Conference and Visitors Bureau/ LBID Advisory Board, declaring the City Council’s intention to levy an annual assessment for the LBID for FY 2027, and directing the City Clerk to schedule a public hearing for April 21, 2026, to consider levying the assessment. This date is not less than 10 days after the adoption of the resolution of intention per California Streets and Highways Code Section 36534(a)(6).
FISCAL IMPACT:
If the proposed FY 2027 Annual Report is approved, it is estimated that a 1% LBID annual assessment for FY 2027 would generate $1,421,000 in LBID Assessment Revenues in FY 2027 which, after $191,703 of administrative expenses, could be used to promote lodging businesses in Pismo Beach. These costs could, in turn, generate transient occupancy tax revenues and other revenues for the city and related agencies.
In addition, the 1% LBID annual assessment for FY 2027 for physical improvements is estimated to generate the same $1,421,000. This assessment could be used to support visitor serving improvements.
Not adopting this or a similar resolution would preclude the Council from setting an Annual Assessment for the LBID for FY 2027 and thus preclude the LBID from generating an estimated $2,842,000 in Assessment Revenues in FY 2027, which could be used to promote the lodging businesses in Pismo Beach.

Regarding the requirements for the Annual Report, as stated in Section 36533 of the California Streets and Highways Code:
1.The Pismo Beach Lodging Business Improvement District (LBID) Advisory Board did not propose any changes in the Boundaries of the LBID, which were established in Section

2.With the renewal of the LBID following adoption of Proposition 26, the purposes for which LBID assessments could be expended were more limited than when the LBID was initially established. As such, the improvements and activities to be provided for in Fiscal Year (FY) 2027 are those services and activities permitted under Section 3.26.030 of the Pismo Beach Municipal Code, which include:
A. The general promotion of lodging operations within the LBID shall include costs of programs and physical improvements as specified in the business plan to be adopted annually;
B. The marketing of conference, group, and vacation business that benefits the local lodging industry in the district;

D. Administration of the LBID, including collection and enforcement of assessments.
The continuing initiatives proposed for the original 1% LBID Assessment for FY 2027 include the following: Following the Strategic Plan including smart tourism growth, collaborative partnerships, expand brand initiatives and awareness and visitor and resident satisfaction with Pismo Beach. This will be accomplished by following the 2025- 2028 Marketing Plan with ongoing reviews at the CVB/LBID Advisory Board Meetings.
Specific initiatives include emphasis on lodging packages, targeted advertising of the four- to-five-hour drive markets of both Southern and Northern California, Fresno, Bakersfield, Ventura County, and Santa Barbara County, as well as San Luis Obispo flight routes from Attachment 1.A

Packet Page 48
Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, Denver, Seattle, Dallas and San Francisco. Continue cooperative advertising with the County Tourism Marketing District and other tourism partners, such as Central Coast Tourism Council and Visit California. There will be a continuing effort to promote off-season events that benefit the lodging industry in Pismo Beach and other marketing efforts with emphasis on all social media platforms. All advertising and marketing efforts will drive customers to the ExperiencePismoBeach.com website to select their lodging preference. These efforts are designed to improve lodging occupancies, RevPAR and TOT taxes which benefit all the residents of Pismo Beach.
The physical improvements proposed for the additional 1% LBID Assessment for FY 2027 include the Addie Street restroom improvements, visitor information center, stewardship banners, sponsorship or seed funding for events, Christmas decorations, beautification, Butterfly Grove parking crosswalk design and construction, sports courts lighting, Downtown Strategic Plan update, and Pier Promenade Transformation.

The purposes of this agenda item of the Public Financing Authority (Authority) are to hold the annual regular meeting and to hold the annual election of specified officers—as required by Authority Resolutions and by the Rules and Regulations of the Authority.

The Agreement provides that "The Authority shall be administered by a Board of five (5) Directors…" and that "The members of the City Council of the City […] shall constitute the Directors of the Authority."

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAF REPOR
Agenda Item #9.G
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
Authorization to Add Engineering Technician as a Budgeted Position; Appropriating Related Budget Adjustments
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving the addition of Engineering Technician as a budgeted position and appropriating related budget adjustments in Fiscal Years 2026 and 2027.
BACKGROUND:
In December 2025, the City Council directed staff to assess the feasibility of performing Construction Management services in-house rather than relying on consultants, in response to concerns about overall costs. After completing a comprehensive review, staff concluded that the complex and specialized nature of construction projects is best supported by consultant teams with established expertise and capacity. These firms provide access to experienced professionals and the resources necessary to meet the varied technical demands of Capital Projects. Although an in-house model may offer some cost savings, specialized inspections and certain technical functions would continue to require outside consultant support.
Engineering Technician
As an alternative, staff recommends reestablishing the Engineering Technician, which is an existing job classification, as a budgeted position. This role has previously proven successful and played an integral part in supporting the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department. Reinstating the position would reduce the need to retain consultants for routine functions, such as processing encroachment permits. In addition, the Engineering Technician serves as a field-facing representative of the Division, responding to public inquiries, assisting with inspections for smaller construction projects, and supporting engineers with day-to-day tasks. This added capacity would support the Public Works Department in implementing the City’s 10-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and managing engineering-related workloads associated with capital infrastructure projects. Expanding staff capacity will enable the City to more effectively plan, deliver, and oversee infrastructure improvements while ensuring the long-term maintenance and reliability of public assets. This position is consistent with the adopted Public Works Assessment recommendation for an additional position to support smaller construction projects and inspection-related work activities.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt resolution (Attachment 1) approving the addition of Engineering Technician as a budgeted position and appropriating related budget adjustments in Fiscal Years 2026 and 2027.
Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.G-1
Packet Page 59
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of adopting the subject resolution is an estimated additional cost of $13,720 in Fiscal Year (FY) 2026, assuming a June 1, 2026 start date, and $136,520 in FY 2027.
To support the cost of adding this position as a budgeted position, staff recommends that the Council appropriate $13,720 in FY 2026 and $136,520 in FY 2027 the General Fund Public Works Department Engineering Division in salaries, benefits, and operating and supplies expenditure accounts.
To ensure the position is supported with a reliable ongoing funding source, staff recommends utilizing revenues from the Measure F-24 Transaction Sales and Use Tax.
Measure F-24 revenues may be used for general governmental purposes, including infrastructure improvements and the staffing necessary to plan, design, and implement those improvements.
Accordingly, staff recommends that the Council appropriate transfers of $13,720 in FY 2026 and $136,520 in FY 2027 on an ongoing basis from the Transaction Sales and Use Tax Fund to the General Fund to support this addition.

WHEREAS, in December 2025, the City Council directed staff to assess the feasibility of performing Construction Management services in-house rather than relying on consultants; and
WHEREAS, after completing a comprehensive review, staff concluded that the complex and specialized nature of construction projects is best supported by consultant teams with established expertise and capacity; and
WHEREAS, as an alternative, staff recommend reestablishing the Engineering Technician, which is an existing job classification that is currently not budgeted; as a budgeted position; and
WHEREAS, the Engineering Technician position has previously proven successful and played an integral part in supporting the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department; and
WHEREAS, reinstating the Engineering Technician position would reduce reliance on consultants for routine functions, including encroachment permit processing, while providing field support, responding to public inquiries, assisting with inspections, and supporting engineering staff; and
WHEREAS, this added capacity would support the City’s 10-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP), assist with engineering workloads for capital projects, and improve infrastructure delivery, consistent with the Public Works Assessment recommendation for an additional position; and
WHEREAS, to ensure the position is supported with a reliable ongoing funding source, the position will be supported by revenues from the Measure F-24 Transaction Sales and Use Tax. Measure F-24 revenues may be used for general governmental purposes, including infrastructure improvements and the staffing necessary to plan, design, and implement those improvements.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Pismo Beach hereby approves the addition of an Engineering Technician as a budgeted position in the General Fund Public Works Department Engineering Division.

Agenda Item #9.H
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
Side Letter Agreements to the Memoranda of Understanding with Pismo Beach Police Officers Association and Service Employees International Union AFL-CIO, Local 620, and Non-Represented Part-Time and Full-Time Employee Wage and Benefits Resolutions
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution approving:
1. A Side Letter Agreement to the Memorandum of Understanding with the Pismo Beach Police Officers Association (POA);
2. A Side Letter Agreement to the Memorandum of Understanding with the Service Employees International Union AFL-CIO, Local 620 (SEIU);
3. A Side Letter Agreement to the Non-Represented Employees Part-Time Wage and Benefits Resolution; and
4. A Side Letter Agreement to the Non-Represented Employees Full-Time Wage and Benefits Resolution,
for the period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2028.
DISCUSSION:
On June 3, 2025, and June 17, 2025, respectively, the City Council adopted Resolutions R-2025-033, R-2025-041, R-2025-032, and R-2025-043, approving three-year Memoranda of Understanding with the Pismo Beach Police Officers Association, Service Employees International Union, Local 620, and wage and benefits resolutions for Non- Represented Part-Time and Full-Time employees for the period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2028.
Updated Job Classifications
While the labor agreements were approved in June 2025, the City continued work on its citywide classification study. On December 2, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution R-2025-081 officially adopting the updated job classifications associated with the completed study, resulting in position titles that are not yet reflected in the current agreements. To address this, side letters are needed to amend the labor agreements for the affected bargaining groups. Updates to the representational unit language will ensure alignment between classifications, salary schedules, and bargaining unit designations.
These revisions are administrative in nature and serve to maintain consistency across governing documents.
PERL Compliance
Additionally, as part of ongoing compliance review efforts by California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS), public agencies are required to ensure that compensation Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.H-1
Packet Page 63
practices and governing documents align with the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL) and established pension reporting requirements.
In response, the City conducted a review of its current labor agreements across all bargaining groups and identified provisions requiring modification to provide consistency with current regulations. This proactive effort is intended to address discrepancies with the PERL and maintain ongoing compliance while minimizing the risk of penalties or retroactive adjustments.
Within the City’s labor agreements, certain compensation practices related to specialty pay require amendment to ensure compliance with CalPERS reporting requirements.
Specifically, pensionable forms of compensation must be reported in the same pay period in which they are earned. The City’s current practice for administering some specialty pay does not consistently align with this requirement. As a result, updates are necessary to standardize the timing of these payments to ensure accurate reporting and improve payroll system efficiency.
Meet-and-Confer Process
The City has completed the meet-and-confer process with the affected recognized employee organizations regarding the proposed updates. Both parties have reached agreement on the terms reflected in the side letters. Additionally, applicable updates for non-represented employee group resolutions have been reviewed and incorporated consistent with these changes.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt resolution (Attachment 1) approving the Police Officers Association MOU Side Letter agreement (Attachment 2); the Service Employees International Union AFL-CIO Local 620 MOU Side Letter agreement (Attachment 3); Non-Represented Part-Time Resolution Side Letter agreement (Attachment 4); and the Non-Represented Full-Time Side Letter agreement (Attachment 5).
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with adopting the attached resolution, as this is an administrative change to comply with updated regulations.

Agenda Item #9.I
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
Award of Contract to Main Line Engineering Construction, Inc. for the Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding Project; Appropriation of Related Budget Adjustments
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution
1. Authorizing the City Manager to execute a construction contract with Main Line Engineering Construction, Inc. for the Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding Project in the amount of $122,700; and
2. Appropriating related budget adjustments in Fiscal Year 2026.
DISCUSSION:
As part of the construction of the federally funded Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Storm Drain Repair and Bluff Face Stabilization project, a PG&E power pole, streetlight, and the existing overhead lines must be relocated. During the development of the project, staff identified an opportunity to underground the existing overhead lines within the project area, reducing the number of overhead utilities along the bluff and improving public views.
The Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding project will remove two existing PG&E poles located at the intersections of Cliff Avenue and Ocean Boulevard, and Ocean Boulevard and Seaview Avenue. The work also includes installing conduit underground from the intersection of Ocean Boulevard and Palisades Avenue to Cliff Avenue and Water Street.
This project is being constructed prior to the Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Storm Drain Repair and Bluff Face Stabilization project in order to remove the power pole and overhead lines that would be obstructing the project site. Once the larger storm drain and bluff stabilization project is complete, PG&E will install electrical service through the new conduit and install three new decorative streetlights on Ocean Boulevard at Cliff Avenue and at Seaview Avenue, as well as at Palisades Avenue where the streetlight was removed in 2023 due to bluff erosion.
Construction
The project was advertised for construction and four bids were received on March 12, 2026 ranging in amount from $122,700 to $259,312. The lowest responsible bidder is Main Line Engineering Construction, Inc. (Main Line Construction) with a bid of $122,700 (bid results provided for reference in Table 1). Staff has verified Main Line Construction’s references and qualifications, and recommends the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) awarding a contract (Attachment 2) to Main Line Construction in the amount of $122,700 for construction of the project.

Table 1. Bid Results
Company Name Bid Amount
Main Line Engineering Construction, Inc. $122,700.00
The J. F. Will Company Inc. $131,994.10
Lee Wilson Electric Company $133,279.00
Aventus NV, Inc. $259,312.00
Construction Management
Staff solicited proposals from three approved consultants on the On-Call Engineering list for Construction Management and Inspection services. Two proposals were received and evaluated, while one firm declined to submit. Cannon Corporation (Cannon) was determined to be the most qualified and has been selected to perform the work. Following negotiations, a Professional Services Agreement for Construction Management and Inspection services in an amount not to exceed $38,125 is being executed under the Department Head’s authority in line with the City’s Purchasing Policy and Procedures Manual.
Cultural Monitoring
The project site is located within a known culturally sensitive area, requiring cultural monitoring services during construction. Staff solicited a proposal from SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) and a Professional Services Agreement in an amount not to exceed $35,625 is being executed under the Department Head’s authority in line with the City’s Purchasing Policy and Procedures Manual.
PG&E
During the design phase of the project, staff coordinated with PG&E to prepare electrical design plans for the removal of existing PG&E facilities and undergrounding of electrical service. In addition to design costs, PG&E has collected fees for the removal of overhead facilities and installation of three new streetlights, both to be completed by PG&E contractors. These costs were not known during budget development and were therefore not included in the original project budget. The total cost of these services $92,542.20, which was paid in Fiscal Year (FY) 2026.
Conclusion and Recommendation
Staff recommends that the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing the City Manager to execute a construction contract with Main Line Construction for the Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding Project in the amount of $122,700, and appropriating related budget adjustments in FY 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of adopting the subject resolution is a total estimated cost of $301,262.20 to construct the project. The total estimated cost includes construction, construction management, cultural monitoring, PG&E costs and a 10% contingency. The FY 2026 Capital Projects Fund Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding project infrastructure budget includes $200,000 for construction of the project, leaving a Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.I-2
Packet Page 84
projected shortfall of $101,262.20, $92,540.20 of which is due to the unanticipated PG&E costs.
Staff recommends appropriating an additional $101,263 in the Capital Projects Fund Cliff Avenue/Ocean Boulevard Utility Undergrounding project infrastructure account, supported by a transfer from the Transaction Sales Tax Fund to support the project, including related transfers between funds in FY 2026. The estimated project costs are shown in Table 2 below.

CONTRACTOR shall perform within the time set forth in Article 2 of this AGREEMENT and shall furnish at its own cost all labor, materials, equipment, tools, utility services, and transportation and perform and complete all work required in connection with the construction of removal of two PG&E poles and installing underground conduit for the Cliff Avenue and Ocean Boulevard Undergrounding Project (hereinafter “Project”).
By entering into this AGREEMENT, CONTRACTOR acknowledges that there may be other contractors on the site whose work will be coordinated with that of its own. CONTRACTOR expressly warrants and agrees that it will cooperate with other contractors and will do nothing to delay, hinder, or interfere with the work of other separate contractors, CITY, the Project Manager, the Public Works Director/City Engineer, or utilities. CONTRACTOR also expressly agrees that, in the event its work is hindered, delayed, interfered with, or otherwise affected by a separate contractor, its sole remedy will be a direct action against the separate contractor. To the extent allowed by law, CONTRACTOR will have no remedy, and hereby expressly waives any remedy against CITY, the Project Manager, or the Public Works Director/City Engineer on account of delay, hindrance, interference or other events caused by a separate contractor.
II.
TIME FOR PROJECT COMPLETION

This AGREEMENT is subject to the provisions of Article 1.7 (commencing at Section 20104.50) of Division 2, Part 3 of the Public Contract Code regarding prompt payment of contractors by local governments. Article 1.7 mandates certain procedures for the payment of undisputed and properly submitted payment requests within 30 days after receipt, for the review of payment requests, for notice to CONTRACTOR of improper payment requests, and provides for the payment of interest on progress payment requests which are not timely made in accordance with that Article. This AGREEMENT hereby incorporates the provisions of Article 1.7 as though fully set forth herein.

available to CONTRACTOR, or if the risk to CITY is sufficiently minimal to render such insurance unnecessary. If such a policy is commercially available, additional cost to CONTRACTOR in obtaining such a policy shall not be a basis upon which the insurance requirement will be waived.

4. CITY’s rights of enforcement. In the event any policy of insurance required under this AGREEMENT does not comply with these requirements or is canceled and not replaced, CITY has the right but not the duty to obtain the insurance it deems

agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against CITY, its elected or appointed officers, agents, officials, employees, and volunteers or shall specifically
allow CONTRACTOR or others providing insurance evidence in compliance with these specifications to waive their right of recovery prior to a loss. CONTRACTOR hereby
waives its own right of recovery against CITY, and shall require similar written express
waivers and insurance clauses from each of its subconsultants.
7. Enforcement of contract provisions (non-estoppel). CONTRACTOR acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of CITY to inform CONTRACTOR of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional obligations on CITY nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
8. Requirements not limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits
contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage, limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any insurance.
Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive,
or to the exclusion of other coverage, or a waiver of any type.

Agenda Item #9.J
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) Additional Discretionary Payment of $1.0 Million to Reduce the City’s Unfunded Pension Liability
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution appropriating $1.0 million from the General Fund unassigned fund balance to provide additional discretionary payments of $500,000 to each of the City’s CalPERS Miscellaneous and Safety Police plans to reduce the City’s unfunded pension liability in Fiscal Year 2026.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Pismo Beach provides retirement benefits for full-time employees through the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS). Due to past investment earnings that did not achieve targeted earnings, as of June 30, 2024, CalPERS only has an estimated 76.8% of the funds required to pay estimated retirement benefits due to retirees. Although the funded rate is a moving target depending on the amount of contributions into CalPERS and the market value of CalPERS investments, an 85% to 90% funded rate would better allow CalPERS to support current and future retirement benefits, while a 50% funded rate could mean that the pension system may not be able to deliver promised benefits. As a result of past losses, increases in life span, retirement enhancements, and other factors, public agencies are now having to pay this unfunded amount, at a 6.8% interest rate.
Staff recognizes the City Council’s past decisions that demonstrated fiscal discipline to use the prior fiscal years’ personnel cost savings to fund additional discretionary payments to CalPERS. This action, if continued, will reduce the City’s interest costs on its outstanding debt and help manage increasing unfunded accrued liability (UAL) payments in the future.
Staff reviewed the benefit of contributing $1.0 million from the General Fund CalPERS prepayment set-aside (General Fund available fund balance set aside from the FY 2024 through FY 2025 personnel cost savings) towards the UAL in one lump sum. Based on this review and the projected savings, staff recommends that the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) to contribute $1.0 million directly to CalPERS to prefund its UAL for the retirement plans for Miscellaneous and Safety Police, including related budget adjustments.
Background
CalPERS retirement plans provide a defined benefit to each retired employee based on a set percentage of an employee’s salary multiplied by the number of years that the employee contributed to the CalPERS system, starting at the stated retirement age of Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.J-1
Packet Page 93
each Plan tier. The City has three main retirement plans, each with two or three benefit tiers, as illustrated in Chart 1:
Chart 1: City’s CalPERS Retirement Plans
Each tier within each plan calls for a different Employer and Employee cost, with the 1st tier costing the most and the 3rd tier costing the least to the employer.
How are Employee Pensions Funded?
Normal (Current) Costs
Individual employee contributions make up about 11% of their retirement benefits. City employees contribute a percentage of their salary depending on their plan and fiscal year. Miscellaneous employees currently contribute 8.0% of their salary to their retirement for tiers 1 and 2, and 9.5% for tier 3 employees. Safety Police employees contribute 12.0% of their salary to their retirement for tiers 1 and 2, and 14.25% for tier 3 employees. There are no current Safety Fire employees, so the contribution for tier 1 and 3 employees is 0.0%.
Employer contributions make up 34% of employees’ retirement. The City contributes a percentage of the employees’ salary towards the employees’ retirement benefits, ranging from 6.18% for the tier 3 miscellaneous employees to 24.38% for a Sworn police officer in tier 1.

CalPERS investments fund 55% of the employees’ retirement. CalPERS investments have varied every year, largely dependent on the overall economy. Including the most recent FY 2025 investment earnings of 12.1%, earnings have averaged: 7.4% per year over the past 10 years, 6.7% per year over the past 20 years, and 7.6% per year for the past 30 years.
In total, 66% of the pension costs are funded by CalPERS investment earnings and employee contributions, leaving 34% funded by the City. Figure 1 illustrates the percentages, or cents per dollar, of contributions per each dollar of public employee pension costs.

Unfunded Pension Costs (Recovering from Past Investment Earnings Lower than Target) In addition to paying the normal or current pensions costs for the year, the City also contributes an amount each year (UAL payment) to help make up for past years where the above three factors did not meet its target earnings rate. Although, on average, CalPERS has met its target investment earnings, CalPERS experienced significant losses during the recession in 2000 and 2001 of 7.2% and 6.1%, respectively, in investment earnings; during the Great Recession in 2008 and 2009 of 5.1% and 24.0%, respectively, of investment earnings; and in FY 2022 with a loss of 6.1% of investment earnings. Consequently, CalPERS has large unfunded pension costs that it cannot earn its way out using just investment earnings. In order to manage the past investment earnings lower than target and still provide its promised benefits, CalPERS has amortized these payments across 20 to 30 years to be paid back by public agency contributions. As a result, these unfunded pension costs are significant.
As of the June 30, 2024 CalPERS valuation of the City’s pension plans, CalPERS has consolidated all tiers into one plan for UAL purposes.
Impact of the Normal Cost and UAL cost on Annual Budgets The normal pensions costs that are paid by the City and the employee to pay for retirement benefits were approximately $1.09 million in FY 2025. The UAL payment (catching up for earnings not achieved in prior years) was $2.0 million in FY 2026. To put this into context with the City’s all funds operating costs, the City pays 1.8% of its operating budget to normal or current pension costs. The City pays 3.4% of its operating budget for unfunded liability payments. Table 2 shows these normal costs, unfunded liability payments, all funds operating budget, and the percentage of the pension costs compared to the operating budget.
Table 2: FY 2021 to FY 2026 Pension Costs Compared to Operating Budgets The unfunded liability payments are increasing significantly and, based on the latest CalPERS valuation, they will continue to increase and peak in FY 2032, then start decreasing (assuming no additional retirement benefit enhancements) after that.

Funded Status and Total Unfunded Accrued Liability
Funded Status as of June 30, 2024 Valuation: 76.8%
The funded status of the City’s retirement plans are determined by comparing the assets it needs to cover all its long-term obligations using various actuarial assumptions compared to the market value of its existing assets. As of the most recent, June 30, 2024, CalPERS actuarial valuation, the funded status of each retirement plan is 76.8% for all three plans. The unfunded portion of the City’s retirement plans, or the Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL), as of June 30, 2024 for all funds is $22.36 million, including $11.59 million for the Miscellaneous Plan and $9.26 million for the Safety Police Plan. The City also has a Safety Fire Plan for former fire employees which have a total UAL of $1.50 million as of June 30, 2024. The following Table 3 illustrates the funded status of the three retirement plans, including the total UAL. Taking the weighted average of all plans, the funded status of all the City’s plans is 76.8%.

Table 3: Funded Status of Each Retirement Plan
Future Projected Funded Status Over Next Decade: Better Positioned Due to various uncertain economic factors including global unrest, preliminary investment earnings, longer projected lifespans, and other market impacts, there will likely be more volatility over the next decade in its investment earnings, which would impact the funded status. Fortunately, despite these upcoming uncertain projections, CalPERS and public agencies are better positioned to weather some economic downturns through various strategies implemented after the last two economic downturns experienced double digit lost earnings in multiple years. These strategies included pension reform in 2013 that established new tier 3 retirements with reduced benefits and lower costs, CalPERS implemented additional policies to help reduce its earnings target from 7.5% per year to
6.8%, shifting its investment strategy from higher earning riskier investments to more stable and conservative investments to avoid large drops due to market pressures, and public agencies increasing contributions to CalPERS.
Funded Status, One Measure Reflecting Health of the Retirement Plans Although the funded rate is a moving target depending on the amount of contributions into CalPERS and the market value of CalPERS investments, an 85% to 90% funded rate would allow CalPERS to support current and future retirement benefits, while a 50% funded rate would mean that the pension system would likely not be able to earn sufficient amounts to deliver promised benefits. Since the City is currently at approximately 76.8% funding as of the June 30, 2024 valuation, and CalPERS preliminary earnings for FY 2025 were 11.6%, the City’s funded status should improve in the next valuation.
Still Large Unfunded Liability Payments Due to CalPERS, Peaking in FY 2032 There still remain large unfunded accrued liabilities (UAL) from promised defined benefits compared to the fiscal health of the CalPERS system. This UAL for the City is $22.36 million as of the June 30, 2024 valuation. In order to pay down this UAL, public agencies have been making payments amortized over 20 to 30 years. As the valuation and funded status assumes a 6.8% earnings rate, these payments reflect a 6.8% interest rate, a high interest rate compared to all the other City’s debt obligations. As shown in Chart 1, these UAL payments are only expected to increase and finally peak in FY 2032. So instead of paying 4% of the City’s operating costs to CalPERS, this percentage will increase. Other than CalPERS consistently exceeding its earnings target to make up for its past investment losses, the best most cost-effective way to help manage these costs is to pay Plan

down this debt. Paying down the unfunded liability earlier than the current amortization schedule not only reduces the City’s unfunded liability and the high interest costs, but also reduces the City’s operating costs over that period.
In other words, although the plans are potentially reaching a more sustainable funded status, the City still has increasingly large debt payments, reflecting a 6.8% interest rates.
As such, it is in the best interest of the City’s financial portfolio to pay this down to reduce this interest cost. In fact, several public agencies, including the City of Pismo Beach, have made additional discretionary payments to reduce the high interest costs and pay down this debt. To date, Pismo Beach has paid $5.0 million toward its UAL ($1.0 million in 2015, $2.0 million in 2018, $1.0 million in 2022, and $1.0 million in 2024), saving hundreds of thousands in interest costs, negotiated new retirement tiers, and increased employee contributions.
Strategies to Pay Down UAL Debt
There are multiple proactive strategies that staff has explored over the past few years to help minimize this high interest debt burden, including direct CalPERS additional discretionary payments, setting aside funds in an irrevocable IRS Section 115 Trust for pension stabilization, reduce the City’s plan to a shorter amortization period, or issue pension obligation bonds. The most direct way to reduce the City’s interest costs are to make direct CalPERS additional discretionary payments.
Section 115 Trust: The City could establish an irrevocable Section 115 Pension Trust to prefund future CalPERS contributions and help stabilize rate increases. Under this option, the City would transfer the existing $1.0 million CalPERS prepayment set- aside from the General Fund into the trust. These funds, plus earnings, could be used in future years—particularly around projected peak costs (e.g., FY 2032)—to offset pension expenses, but may only be used for pension purposes. The trust balance would be reported as an asset on the City’s financial statements.
The primary benefit of the trust is the potential to earn a higher return than the City’s pooled investments, which are restricted by State law. Based on historical performance, a moderate investment strategy would likely yield approximately 5% to 7% over the long term, though returns are not guaranteed and will fluctuate with market conditions.
However, this option does not directly reduce the City’s unfunded pension liability (UAL) or provide immediate savings. In contrast, making an additional discretionary payment to CalPERS provides guaranteed savings equal to the discount rate (approximately 6.8%). Because the trust’s expected return is similar to, but not consistently higher than, this guaranteed rate, it does not provide a clear financial advantage in the near term. Additionally, the trust is subject to market volatility. During economic downturns, when CalPERS costs typically increase, the trust may also experience losses, reducing the funds available to offset those increases.
Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.J-7
Packet Page 99
Staff does not recommend this option at this time. While a Section 115 Trust can be a useful long-term tool to smooth pension costs, it is generally more appropriate once the City’s pension liability is better funded and contribution levels have stabilized. Amortize the City’s plans to a 20-year amortization period: The City has the option to change some or all of the retirement plans’ tiers from its current amortization schedule to a shorter amortization period. This option could take the $1.0 million and spread it across the various plans to reduce interest costs and the City’s UAL payment in the long term. However, in the short-term, the City’s UAL payments would increase. As the City is trying to reduce its CalPERS UAL payments from now until FY 2032, this option is not in line with the City’s resources.
Pension obligation bonds (POBs): Pension Obligation Bonds (POBs) are taxable debt issued by a public agency to fund all or a portion of its unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAL) at a specific point in time. While issuing POBs can eliminate the existing UAL, new liabilities may still emerge over time due to actuarial changes, benefit adjustments, or investment performance. The long-term financial outcome of a POB depends largely on whether CalPERS investment returns exceed the bond interest rate. While POBs often generate short-term contribution savings, the long-term benefits are uncertain and difficult to predict. If investment returns underperform, the City could face both ongoing UAL payments and POB debt service, increasing overall financial risk. POBs are considered a higher-risk, more speculative strategy, as they effectively convert a soft liability into fixed debt and rely on market performance to achieve savings. Although there has been renewed interest in POBs during periods of lower interest rates and rising pension costs, past experience has shown that agencies issuing POBs at unfavorable times have incurred significant financial strain.
Staff does not recommend this approach at this time. The City’s current priority is to reduce its 6.8% UAL interest cost without taking on additional financial risk associated with leveraged debt.
Direct CalPERS Additional Discretionary Payment (ADP): Providing an additional discretionary payment (ADP) to CalPERS provides a direct benefit to reducing the City’s interest on its unfunded liability and helps to reduce the City’s UAL payments over time. Staff worked with its CalPERS Actuary to determine the results of contributing $500 thousand to each of the Miscellaneous and Public Safety Police plans.
Maximize Savings in Next 10 Years to decrease UAL Payments Staff used the CalPERS Managing ER Contributions tool to determine how to best allocate the $1.0 million across the various plans. Staff’s focus in previous years was to maximize interest cost savings overall. However, based on the projected UAL payments exceeding $2.5 million in FY 2029 through FY 2035, staff’s goal is to reduce the total payments due in the peak years.
Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.J-8
Packet Page 100
Accordingly, staff applied the $500 thousand for each plan to the shortest amortization period to achieve the greatest reduction in upcoming payments. Based on this review, the total $1.0 million prepayment to CalPERS is projected to reduce the City’s UAL payments in the next 10 years by $1,369,828 and save the City $369,835 in interest costs from FY 2027 to FY 2044. The average annual savings in total UAL payments for both plans is $76,102 during FY 2027 to FY 2044, reducing the City’s operating costs. Table 4 includes the proposed option and corresponding savings.

Staff recommends that the Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) appropriating $1.0 million from the General Fund unassigned fund balance to provide additional discretionary payments of $500,000 to each of the City’s CalPERS Miscellaneous and Safety Police plans to reduce the City’s unfunded pension liability in FY 2026.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The fiscal impact of adopting the attached Resolution is an initial cost of $1.0 million in FY 2026, which will reduce the General Fund available fund balance. The total $1.0 million prepayment to CalPERS will reduce the City’s UAL payments in the next 10 years by $1,369,828 and save the City $369,835 in interest costs from FY 2027 to FY 2044. The average annual savings in total UAL payments for both plans is $76,102 during FY 2027 to FY 2044, reducing the City’s operating costs.
In order to implement this payment, staff recommends that the Council appropriate $1.0 million from the General Fund unassigned fund balance to pay an additional discretionary payment in FY 2026.

PISMO BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAF REPOR
Agenda Item #9.K
Meeting Date: April 7, 2026
TITLE:
Updated Caltrans Freeway Maintenance Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to enter into a Freeway Maintenance Agreement with the State of California, Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
DISCUSSION:
The City of Pismo Beach and the State of California, Department of Transportation (Caltrans) have previously executed Freeway Agreements, which detail ownership of rights-of-way, most recently in 1989 establishing adjustments of the local street and road system required for the development of Highway 101, as well as Freeway Maintenance Agreements, most recently in 1962 establishing the division of maintenance responsibilities for facilities of the local streets and roads system within the jurisdictional freeway limits.
While local streets are constructed within state right-of-way to allow public access to the freeway system, Caltrans typically does not maintain these local streets. Instead, a Freeway Maintenance Agreement establishes and clarifies the limits of maintenance responsibility between Caltrans and the local jurisdiction.
Staff and Caltrans have prepared an updated Freeway Maintenance Agreement (Attachment 2) to further clarify and define maintenance responsibilities for facilities within freeway limits, including:
Vehicular uUndercrossings
Vehicular overcrossings
Non-vehicular undercrossing
Walls (retaining walls, columns, soundwalls)
Landscaped areas
Screening
Interchange operation
Bicycle paths
The updated Freeway Maintenance Agreement (Attachment 2) will supersede the existing agreement. In addition to clarifying maintenance responsibilities for local streets adjacent to Highway 101, the agreement will also formalize the City’s responsibility for Council Agenda 4-7-2026 9.K-1
Packet Page 108
the future maintenance of Highway 1 within City limits upon completion of the Highway 1 relinquishment process. The Highway 1 Relinquishment Agreement is currently undergoing a separate state process and review by Caltrans, and the relinquishment will be presented to the City Council for approval at a future meeting. A map of locations with areas maintained by the City within State right-of-way is included as Exhibit A to the Agreement.
Conclusion and Recommendation
The updated Freeway Maintenance Agreement has been reviewed by staff and the City Attorney. Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution (Attachment 1) authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to enter into a Freeway Maintenance Agreement with Caltrans in order to clarify maintenance responsibilities.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with entering into this updated freeway maintenance agreement, as the existing maintenance costs are included in the annual Public Works budget, however there will be additional maintenance costs associated with the future Highway 1 relinquishment. Those future maintenance costs will be incorporated into the Public Works budget and discussed when the relinquishment is brought to the City Council for action.

Agenda Item #12.B
Meetin Date: pril 7, 2026
TITLE:
Police Department Semi-Annual Update
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive the Police Department Semi-Annual Update.
DISCUSSION:
Staff will present an overview of the Police Department’s activities from January 2025 to December 2025. This report to the City Council includes crime trends and statistics, staffing updates, dispatch operations, parking data, the Community Service Technician position, and community engagement highlights.
Semi-Annual Department Update:
The City Council will receive crime statics which are reported to the National Incident- Based Reporting System (NIBRS). This data classifies offenses into two categories:
Group A and Group B. Group A offenses include all incidents occurring within a law enforcement agency's jurisdiction, regardless of whether an arrest is made. These offenses are further categorized into Crimes Against Persons, Crimes Against Property, and Crimes Against Society. Examples of Group A offenses include arson, burglary, drug/narcotic offenses, and vandalism. Group B offenses are used solely for reporting arrest data related to specified crimes within the group, primarily consisting of Crimes Against Society. Examples of Group B offenses include writing a bad check, driving under the influence, and trespassing.
During the period from January 2025 to December 2025, the Police Department observed an 18% increase in overall workload compared to the previous year. Notably, there was a 29% increase in self-initiated calls for service, a 1% increase in traffic citations, an 18% increase in community-generated calls for service, and a 29% increase in warnings. Despite this rise in workload, the Department recorded a 1% decrease in Group A: Crimes Against Persons and a 14% decrease in Group A: Crimes Against Property and a 36% decrease in Group A: Crimes Against Society. The primary decrease in these crimes was related to narcotics arrests, down 39%, and weapons arrests, down 36%.
In 2025, the Police Department recorded a 26% increase in documented traffic collisions within the city. This included no change in pedestrian collisions, a 75% increase in bicycle collisions, and a 49% increase in vehicle collisions. Despite the overall rise in collisions, DUI-related collisions decreased by 36%, reflecting continued enforcement and education efforts addressing impaired driving. Additionally, there was a 78% increase in traffic stops and a 1% increase in citations issued for traffic violations, demonstrating the department’s continued commitment to proactive traffic enforcement.
The Police Department made progress in staffing during 2025. The Department Council Agenda 4-7-2026 12.B-1
Packet Page 161
successfully hired three new police officers who are currently completing the field training program. Two officers graduated from the police academy in December, and one officer joined the Department as a lateral hire from the Bakersfield Police Department. Currently, the Department has two officer vacancies and one dispatch vacancy. Recruitment efforts are ongoing to fill these remaining vacant positions. Staff remains hopeful about continued progress toward full staffing.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no direct fiscal impact from this report.
