CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Joshua Rogers, City Engineer
Subject: Well No. 16
Final Acceptance

Attachments:

1. Notice of Completion

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Accept the work for the Well 16 Project in the amount of $1,340,188.88; and

2. Authorize recordation of the Notice of Completion with the Fresno County Recorder.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The contractor, Telstar Instruments, has completed all improvements for the subject project to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.

BACK
GROUND:

This project was initiated under the authority of Resolution No. 2021- 58, which declared a Municipal Water Emergency in response to several factors which affected the City’s Water System to a point of insufficient capacity. While other well projects were in development, the anticipated timelin es of completion of those wells, and the need for immediate bolstering of the City’s water supply , necessitated the improvement of Well 16 to provide additional capacity for the system.

14 The well had previously been drilled and developed a couple years e arlier but the final capacity of the production well was considerably below that which had been estimated based on the test well (approximately 25-30% of the estimated capacity). Based on the estimated costs to fully equip the well compared to the anticip ated production capacity of the well, the decision was initially made to forego equipping the well and bringing it into operation.

In the following years though, a combination of declined production from other wells and a series of mechanical and electrical failures at other well sites resulted in periods of peak demand when water pressures and flows within the water system were extremely low, posing problems for residents and businesses alike. Because future wells (i.e. #19 and 22) were still years out based on land acquisition, funding, drilling/testing and construction, the decision was made to equip Well 16 and bring it online as quickly as possible. City Staff worked with one of its contract vendors, Telstar Instruments, to start the process of ordering long -lead electrical equipment and applying for PG&E service. In March of 2022 the Council approved a contract with Telstar to construct all site improvements. The contract was based on Time and Material, as the work was being planned as emergency work.

Staff worked with Telstar to inspect and track their labor and material costs, and the well was eventually brought online in September of 2022. In conjunction with the reinstatement of a well (Well #6) that was down for mechanical reasons at the time , the increased water supply resulted in an immediate pressure boost of 10 pounds per square inch (psi) in the water system. With the well online, Telstar and City Water Department staff worked intermittently on punchlist work where possible. The flow meter on the well was determined to be faulty, and a replacement order was placed, but supply chain issues delayed the delivery. Once procured, replacement of the meter required the well to be taken offline. Since the well’s production was so critically ne eded, the decision was made not to replace the meter until demands were down to a point where the well could be shut down. Other minor tweaks and modifications were made to the site over time as well until it was determined to be complete. At this time, Staff is recommending final acceptance of the improvements.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The project construction work has been completed by the Contractor to the satisfaction of the Ci ty Engineer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The final construction contract cost is $1,340,188.88, which was funded from a combination of ARPA and Water Enterprise Reserve Funds.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

The Notice of Completion will be recorded with the Fresno County Recorder. 15 ATTACHMENT 1

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Josh ua Rogers, City Engineer
Subject: Bethel Avenue Rehabilitation – Jensen Avenue to Northern City Limits Contract Award

Attachment:

1. Contract

2. Budget Amendment

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Award the contract for the project to Emmett Valley Construction, Inc., 9662 W.

Kearney Blvd, Fresno, CA 93706, in the amount of $1,637,673.80, as lowest responsive and responsible bidder; and

2. Approve a construction contingency for change orders in the amount of $ 163,000 (10%) for this project; and

3. Authorize the City Manager to sign contract documents on behalf of the City.

4. Approve a Budget Amendment in the amount of $150,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This federally-funded project will construct roadway improvements , including pavement reconstruction and upgrade of curb ramps for ADA compliance on Bethel Avenue between Jensen Avenue and the northern City Limits. The project will also install bicycle lanes along the entire route. 18 \\nas1\shared\Forms & Templates

BACKGROUND:

The City was awarded competitive federal transportation funding for the subject project through the Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) program during the Fresno County Call for Projects in 2021. That program is primarily dedicated to road rehabilitation and maintenance projects and the City’s project was identified as one of the top-ranked projects in the region during that cycle.

The project scope includes asphalt dig -outs to remove the failed portions of the roadway pavement, which are generally located in the wheel paths of the t ravel lanes, followed by grinding of the top pavement course over the entire project limits, placement of a pavement reinforcing mat and construction of an asphalt overlay over the entire roadway. Existing curb ramps along the segment will be upgraded for ADA compliance, and bicycle lanes will be installed throughout.

The City received the authorization from Caltrans to advertise for bids in July 2024. During the project bidding phase, the Notice Inviting Bids was advertised in the Mid Valley Times and c irculated in the local builders’ exchanges. Additionally, other reputable contractors experienced with this type of construction were made aware of the project and invited to bid on the project as well.

On August 21, 2024 the City Clerk received and opened four bid proposals for this project:

C
ontractor Bid

1. Emmett Valley Construction, Inc. $1,637,673.80

2. R.J. Berry, Jr, Inc. $1,674,312.55

3. Granite Construction Co. $1,867,468.41

4. Cal Valley Construction $1,899,590.21

Engineer’s Estimate $1,531,000.00

The bids were analyzed and it was determined that Emmett Valley Construction, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid and as such, Staff recommends that they be awarded the contract.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

Award of the contract will allow the City to proceed with the project.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The low bid exceeded the engineer’s estimate at the time of bid by approximately $107,000. The estimated cost for the construction phase of the project is $2,025,000, as detailed below:

• Construction - $1,637,673
• Construction Contingency - $ 163,000
• Construction Management/Inspection/Testing/Admin - $ 224,327

The project is being funded by a combination of federal STBG and local TDA Article 8 funds. There are $1,126,256 of federal funds available. The remainder is to be funded by Article 8. With the low bid exceeding the engineer’s estimate, the total project is estimated to exceed the amount budgeted in FY 25 19 \\nas1\shared\Forms & Templates

by approximately $150,000. Included in this staff report is a budget amendment for an additional $150,000 from Article 8 funds. The additional funds are planned from fund reserves in this year’s budget.

ALTERNATIVES:

The Council can reject all bids and direct Staff to re-bid the project.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

The contract will be executed, subject to the Contractor providing performance security satisfactory to the City. After issuance of the Notice to Proceed, the Contractor will have 45 working days to complete the project.

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Esperanza Rosales, Public Works Director
Subject: Ratify Agreement for Repair of North Digester Sludge Heater - WWTP

Attachments: 1) Contractor Agreement and Quote California Boiler

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends that the City Council ratify the agreement between the City of Sanger and California Boiler to repair the north sludge heater of the digester at the Wastewater Treatment Plant in the amount of $97,860.49.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City’s Domestic and Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant are undergoing critical maintenance.

Currently, the north sludge heater is out of service and in need of repair. Public Works staff secured a repair quote from California Boiler in the amount of $97,860.49 with a lead time of 6-8 weeks for parts and an estimated project duration of 3-5 weeks. On August 15, 2024, City Manager Nathan Olson approved an agreement with California Boiler to begin service of the north sludge heater under Resolution No. 2024-48 Determination of Emergency at Wastewater Treatment Facility. Until the north sludge heater is repaired, the south sludge heater will support both domestic and industrial sludge heating needs.

BACKGROUND:
39 On July 18, 2024, City Manager Nathan Olson declared an emergency at the Sanger Domestic/Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facilit ies requiring emergency repairs. Resolution No. 2024 -48 provides for procurement without competitive bidding for emergency purchases and contracts for supplies, materials, equipment, and services when the purchase is required for health, safety, or welfare of the public, or for the protection of property if there is a present, immediate, and existing emergency, and that such emergency procurements shall be made with such sol icitation of competitive pricing as practicable under the circumstances. The repairs to the north sludge heater are a vital part of the City’s ongoing efforts to safeguard the health and safety of its residents and maintain the operational integrity of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. The Sanger City Council Approved Resolution 2024-48 which authorizes the City Manager to execute contracts /agreements for emergency repair work under the Determination of Emergency up to $200,000 without City Council action. The current agreement between the City of Sanger and California Boiler does not exceed that threshold.

Any additional costs that arise during the inspection process or installation will be addressed as appropriate.

There is a 6 – 8 weeks lead-time for parts and the actual expected job timing is 3 -5 weeks. In the meantime, staff are utilizing the south sludge heater to heat both domestic and industrial sludge.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The digester is a critical part of the domestic and industrial sludge treatment process. The unit is aged and in need of repair. Currently the heating of sludge is only being handled by one boiler unit and there is no redundancy. An agreement was signed between the City of Sanger and California Boiler to repair the north sludge heater of the digester, as it is vital and necessary to safeguard the public health and safety.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total fiscal impact of the cleaning of north sludge heater is not to exceed $ 97,860.49 and appropriation will be included in Sewer Fund Budget. Once the entire north heating unit is disassembled, there may be more repairs to be performed and those additional costs will be addressed appropriately and billed on a time and material basis.

ALTERNATIVES:

The digester’s north sludge heater w ill be out of service until repaired. There is a possibility of non- compliance with the State permit to operate if the south sludge heater fails in the future.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Upon approval, the agreement will be filed per normal document retention with the City Clerk.

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and Councilmembers
From: Greg Tarascou, Fire Chief
Subject: Participation in the Medi-Cal Intergovernmental Rate Range Program Attachments: 1. Intergovernmental Agreement re: Transferring of Public Funds

2. Health Plan Provider Amendment between the City of Sanger and Anthem Blue Cross

3. Health Plan Provider Agreement between the City of Sanger and CalViva

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve the following contracts:

• Intergovernmental Agreement re: Transfer of Public Funds between the City of Sanger and the California Department of Health Care Services
• Health Plan Provider Amendment between the City of Sanger and Anthem Blue Cross • Health Plan Provider Agreement between the City of Sanger and Cal-Viva Health

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

These contracts commit the City of Sanger Fire Department to participate in the calendar year 2023 Medi-Cal Intergovernmental Transfer (IGT) Rate -Range Program for the recovery of unreimbursed ambulance service costs provided to Medi-Cal Plan patients.

55 Since 2006 the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) has offered local governments that provide health care the opportunity to secure additional Medi-Cal revenues by participating in a voluntary Intergovernmental Transfer (IGT) Program with their local Medi-Cal managed care plans. In Fresno County the two managed care plans are Anthem Blue Cross and CalViva. The Sanger Fire Department provides EMS ambulance transport, a Medi-Cal covered service to Medi-Cal plan members, therefore is eligible to participate in the IGT Program. In summary, the IGT process will result in the two Medi-Cal Managed Care Plans paying governmental providers of health care services additional Medi-Cal revenues to offset previously unreimbursed charges for serving Medi-Cal plan members. The payment amounts are determined by the provider’s unreimbursed charges, the number of other local government providers participating in the IGTs in that county or region, the Plans’ recommendations, and the State’s formulas. The Fire Department has participated in the Rate Range IGTs for the last seven years.

BACKGROUND:

In a Rate Range IGT, the local government entity transfers funds to the State (the “intergovernmental transfer”) which are used to increase the actuarially sound rates the State pays the health plan (and to reimburse the State for its administrative costs). The Plan then pays the local provider the IGT-funded proceeds that the local government transfer made possible. Because the local transfer is matched with federal funds, the participating government provider receives the amount of the transfer plus new funds as well.

Participation in these upcoming IGTs represents an opportunity for local governments that take care of Medi-Cal patients, including our city, to recoup a share of their actual costs. Using the IGT mechanism, Blue Cross and CalViva will be able to pay us a lump sum Medi-Cal payment to cover costs that were previously subsidized by local resources.

A rate range IGT is implemented through three contracts: One with each of the two plans and one with the DHCS for the transfer of public funds. The contract templates have been approved by the State and Federal governments and have been accepted by many counties and large public health care systems.

These documents spell out each entity’s obligations regarding the transfer of local funds, the use of the funds by the State to increase the Plan rates, the payment from the Plan to the provider, and the treatment of the IGT-funded payments by the provider. Before any funds are transferred to the State by a local government, all contracts are signed by the participants. Each IGT, including the contributing governmental entity and the level the Plan rates are increased, are approved in advance by the federal government. Because our city will do one IGT with Blue Cross and one with CalViva, we will have two sets of documents.

We have worked with four other city fire departments that provide ambulance transports to collect data on our unreimbursed costs for Health Plan services and to submit the necessary materials to the Health Plans and the State. DHCS has approved the City’s contribution amounts for each Plan’s IGTs and has approved our current draft documents. Wiring instructions for each plan’s year from both Anthem and CalViva will be sent well ahead of due dates.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The Medi-Cal program reimburses around $125 per emergency ambulance transport which is typically only 10 to 20% of the actual cost to provide an EMS transport. The Rate Range IGTs provide financial support for Medi-Cal managed care patient emergency transports not covered by flat Medi-Cal reimbursement.

56 FISCAL IMPACT:

The proposed IGT cycle will allow us to receive an estimated $1,906,905 in new Medi-Cal payments to more fully compensate the City for the provision of EMS transports during the 2023 calendar year.

We expect to wire approximately $1,501,250 to DHCS for both Plans combined and expect to receive lump sum payment from each of the Plans totaling $3,408,155 which results in a net of $1,906,905 in net new funds.

ALTERNATIVES:

Reject participation in the IGT Program and the Fire Department will continue to seek additional funding sources.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Upon approval, the City Manager will sign the final documents that have been approved from the State to implement the IGTs. The documents will be returned to the State and the respective plans for their signature and the following timeline will be implemented:

1. With an anticipated date in October 2024, the City will wire funds to DHCS per the terms of the approved Intergovernmental Transfer Agreements.

2. Once receiving the funds the State will draw down the Federal funding to match. The State will pay the participating Plans as soon as possible, normally one to two months after receiving the wired funds.

3. Once the participating Plans are paid, the Plans have 30-60 days to pay the City. In total, there is an anticipated 12-14 week period between the time the City wires the funds and receives payment from the participating plans.

INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT REGARDING

TRANSFER OF PUBLIC FUNDS

This Agreement is entered into between the CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES (“DHCS”) and CITY OF SANGER (“GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY”) with respect to the matters set forth below.

The parties agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Transfer of Public Funds

1.1 The GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY agrees to make a transfer of funds to DHCS pursuant to sections 14164 and 14301.4 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.

The amount transferred shall be based on the sum of the applicable rate category per member per month (“PMPM”) contribution increments multiplied by member months, as reflected in Exhibit

1. The GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY agrees to initially transfer amounts that are calculated using the Estimated Member Months in Exhibit 1, which will be reconciled to actual enrollment for the service period of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 in accordance with Sub-Section 1.3 of this Agreement. The funds transferred shall be used as described in Sub- Section 2.2 of this Agreement. The funds shall be transferred in accordance with the terms and conditions, including schedule and amount, established by DHCS.

1.2 The GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY shall certify that the funds transferred qualify for Federal Financial Participation pursuant to 42 C.F.R. part 433, subpart B, and are not derived from impermissible sources such as recycled Medicaid payments, Federal money excluded from use as State match, impermissible taxes, and non-bona fide provider- 58 CONTRACT # IGT-23-0017

2 Template Version - 3/2024

related donations. Impermissible sources do not include patient care or other revenue received from programs such as Medicare or Medicaid to the extent that the program revenue is not obligated to the State as the source of funding.

1.3 DHCS shall reconcile the “Estimated Member Months,” in Exhibit 1, to actual enrollment in HEALTH PLAN(S) for the service period of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 using actual enrollment figures taken from DHCS records. Enrollment reconciliation will occur on an ongoing basis as updated enrollment figures become available.

Actual enrollment figures will be considered final two years after December 31, 2023. If reconciliation results in an increase to the total amount necessary to fund the nonfederal share of the payments described in Sub-Section 2.2, the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY agrees to transfer any additional funds necessary to cover the difference. If reconciliation results in a decrease to the total amount necessary to fund the nonfederal share of the payments described in Sub-Section 2.2, DHCS agrees to return the unexpended funds to the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY. If DHCS and the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY mutually agree, amounts due to or owed by the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY may be offset against future transfers.

2. Acceptance and Use of Transferred Funds

2.1 DHCS shall exercise its authority under section 14164 of the Welfare and Institutions Code to accept funds transferred by the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY pursuant to this Agreement as Intergovernmental Transfer (IGTs), to use for the purpose set forth in Sub-Section 2.2.

2.2 The funds transferred by the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY pursuant to Section 1 and Exhibit 1 of this Agreement shall be used to fund the non-federal share 59 CONTRACT # IGT-23-0017

3 Template Version - 3/2024

of Medi-Cal Managed Care actuarially sound capitation rates described in section 14301.4(b)(4) of the Welfare and Institutions Code as reflected in the contribution PMPM and rate categories reflected in Exhibit 1. The funds transferred shall be paid, together with the related Federal Financial Participation, by DHCS to HEALTH PLAN(S) as part of HEALTH PLAN(S)’ capitation rates for the service period of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, in accordance with section 14301.4 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.

2.3 DHCS shall seek Federal Financial Participation for the capitation rates specified in Sub-Section 2.2 to the full extent permitted by federal law.

2.4 The parties acknowledge that DHCS will obtain any necessary approvals from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

2.5 DHCS shall not direct HEALTH PLAN(S)’ expenditure of the payments received pursuant to Sub-Section 2.2.

3. Assessment Fee

3.1 DHCS shall exercise its authority under section 14301.4 of the Welfare and Institutions Code to assess a 20 percent fee related to the amounts transferred pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement, except as provided in Sub-Section 3.2. GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY agrees to pay the full amount of that assessment in addition to the funds transferred pursuant to Section 1 of this Agreement.

3.2 The 20-percent assessment fee shall not be applied to any portion of funds transferred pursuant to Section 1 that are exempt in accordance with sections 14301.4(d) or 14301.5(b)(4) of the Welfare and Institutions Code. DHCS shall have sole discretion to determine the amount of the funds transferred pursuant to Section 1 that will not be subject to a 60 CONTRACT # IGT-23-0017

4 Template Version - 3/2024

20 percent fee. DHCS has determined that $ 0.00 of the transfer amounts will not be assessed a 20 percent fee, subject to Sub-Section 3.3.

3.3 The 20-percent assessment fee pursuant to this Agreement is non- refundable and shall be wired to DHCS simultaneously with the transfer amounts made under Section 1 of this Agreement. If at the time of the reconciliation performed pursuant to Sub- Section 1.3 of this Agreement, there is a change in the amount transferred that is subject to the 20-percent assessment in accordance with Sub-Section 3.1, then a proportional adjustment to the assessment fee will be made.

4. Amendments

4.1 No amendment or modification to this Agreement shall be binding on either party unless made in writing and executed by both parties.

4.2 The parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend this Agreement as necessary and appropriate to implement the requirements set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement.

(2) For purposes of subsection (1) (b) above, if the retained LMMCRR IGT Payments, if any, are not used by PROVIDER in the State fiscal year received, retention of funds by PROVIDER will be established by demonstrating that the retained earnings account of PROVIDER at the end of any State fiscal year in which it received payments based on LMMCRR IGT Payments funded pursuant to the Intergovernmental Agreement, has increased over the unspent portion of the prior State fiscal year’s balance by the amount of LMMCRR IGT Payments received, but not used. These retained PROVIDER funds may be commingled with other GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY funds for cash management purposes provided that such funds are appropriately tracked and only the depositing facility is authorized to expend them.
(3) Both parties agree that none of these funds, either from the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY or federal matching funds will be recycled back to the GOVERNMENTAL FUNDING ENTITY’S general fund, the State, or any other intermediary 71 City of Sanger and CalViva 2023 Rate Range Health Plan/Provider Agreement p. 4

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and City Council Members
From: Greg Garner, Chief of Police
Subject: Declaration of Police Service Dog ( Rocky) as Surplus Property Attachments: 1) Resolution
2) Indemnification letter from Clovis

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council approve Resolution No. 2024-59 declaring Police Service Dog Rocky as surplus property and authorizing the City Purchasing Agent to dispose of said property by selling the dog to the City of Clovis for the amount of $10,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

In December of 2022, The Sanger Police Department obtained Police Service Dog Rocky from Adlerhorst International . During that time, Rocky was selected from a limited number of available canines but has served the department well over the last year and a half. Rocky’s handler is absent from work and on extended leave therefore unable to take care of or do the necessary upkeep required to maintain the K9 and his mission readiness. The City of Clovis wants to purchase the dog from the city for $10,000. They have an immediate need. The time required to select and train a new handler for Sanger would not be viable to keep Rocky in 79 service and there is regression in training that may occur. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the animal and our department to surplus and sell the dog to Clovis PD. They are familiar with Rocky as our K9 units train together and they want to put him into service immediately with a new handler.

Upon being declared surplus property, Rocky will be sold to Clovis for the agreed upon sum of $10,000. The K9 was originally purchased from Adlerhorst Internationa l at a cost of $14,400, accomplished through a combination of funding from the Sanger Police Foundation and the city’s General Funds. The Sanger Police Foundation will be reimbursed for their percentage of the costs associated with the original purchase (54% or $5 400), the remaining funds will go to the City of Sanger General Fund in accordance with their percentage of costs associated with original purchase (46% or $4600).

BACKGROUND:

The City equipment (K9) has been evaluated and deemed to have reached its useful life to the city considering the circumstances.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends Police Service Dog Rocky be decommissioned from the Police Department equipment cache and declared surplus property through the established procedures and in accordance with the law. Pursuant to recent practices, staff will coordinate the sale of the surplus property, and the proceeds will go to the City General Fund and the Sanger Police Foundation.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon selling the Police Service Dog Rocky, the City can expect to receive $4600 from the sale.

The City will relinquish all costs associated with K9 Rocky to the City of Clovis (Veterinarian bills, food, upkeep, etc.)

ALTERNATIVES:

If no action is taken, Police Service Dog Rocky will remain as City equipment but will not be in service. The City will need to identify long-term care for Police Service Dog Rocky at substantial financial cost.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

All preparations for the sale of Police Service Dog Rocky will be made by staff. A sale agreement subject to City Attorney approval will be prepared.

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Greg Garner, Chief of Police
Subject: Ratification of Vehicle Lease Agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management Attachments: A) Master Equity Lease Agreement with attached Lease Schedules B) Full Maintenance Agreement
C) Consignment Auction Agreement
D ) Sole Source Letter

RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council ratify a Master Equity Lease Agreement with Enterprise FM Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (“Enterprise Fleet Management”) through July 2026 relating to the lease of two Police Department vehicles. This will ensure that the Sanger Police Department retains essential administrative vehicles, allowing for uninterrupted operations within the department’s investigative and administrative units.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

In 2023, the Sanger Police Department faced significant challenges with its aging administrative vehicle fleet. The two 2014 Chevrolet Impalas assigned to the Investigations Unit had accrued nearly 100,000 miles, leading to increased maintenance costs and reliability concerns. Additionally, the vehicles were widely recognized as police cars, rendering them ineffective for investigative operations.

To address this, the Police Department collaborated with then-Finance Director Patrick Chaffee to explore a more cost-effective solution for acquiring new vehicles. After thorough research, an equity lease agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management was identified as the optimal solution. This agreement allowed the department to replace the aging vehicles with a new vehicles, without any upfront costs and with a comprehensive maintenance package included. The Master Lease is a three year lease agreement for two vehicles. The total monthly cost for both vehicles is $1,640.60, amounting to $19,687.20 annually 83 \\nas1\shared\Forms & Templates

At this time, Council is asked to ratify the lease as its continuation is essential to support the Department's operational effectiveness and to maintain fleet readiness.

BACKGROUND:

In 2023, the Sanger Police Department recognized an urgent need to replace its two 2014 Chevrolet Impalas. These vehicles, integral to the Investigations Unit, had nearly 100,000 miles each and were becoming increasingly expensive to maintain. Beyond maintenance concerns, these vehicles were well- known within the community as police vehicles, which compromised their use in undercover operations.

While the City typically budgets for two police vehicles annually, the funds were allocated towards necessary patrol vehicles, leaving insufficient resources for unmarked administrative vehicles. To address this, the Police Department investigated alternative solutions and proposed entering an equity lease agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management. This program provided a viable path to acquire two new vehicles, essential for the department’s operations, without the large overhead of a cash purchase.

The terms of the equity lease agreement include:
• The Police Department specifies the types of vehicles needed and sets a total monthly budget. • Enterprise Fleet Management locates vehicles that meet these specifications. • Upon selection, the vehicles are delivered to the Police Department. • The lease is structured over a 36-month period with no mileage limitations. • The lease includes a full maintenance program covering all routine maintenance with the department's preferred service provider, including one set of brakes. • At the end of the lease term, the Police Department has the option to purchase the vehicles at a reduced Blue Book value or have Enterprise sell the vehicles, with any profits exceeding the reduced Blue Book value returned to the City or rolled into a new lease. .

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The continuation of this lease agreement is crucial to the Sanger Police Department’s operations. The vehicles acquired under this lease are essential for investigative and administrative duties, ensuring that the department remains operationally effective. The agreement also provides a financially prudent solution, fitting within the department’s approved budget for vehicle expenses. Discontinuing the lease would lead to operational disruptions due to the lack of suitable unmarked vehicles.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total cost of the 36-month lease agreement is $59,061.60, totaling $19,687.20 a year, with a monthly payment of $1640.60. The City has completed 12 monthly payments, totaling $19,687.20 plus late fees.

The balance remaining on the lease agreement totals $39,374.40 which is to be divided between the 2024/2025 budget, and the 2025/206 budget.

84 \\nas1\shared\Forms & Templates

ALTERNATIVES:

Should the Council choose not to approve the continuation of the lease agreement, the City will default on the agreement and payments, necessitating the return of the vehicles to Enterprise Fleet Management. This would significantly impact the Police Department’s operations, as there would be an insufficient number of vehicles available for use by the administrative and investigative staff.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Upon approval, the Police Department will continue the vehicle lease agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management through July 2026, ensuring the availability of necessary administrative vehicle s and maintaining operational effectiveness.
85 MASTER EQUITY LEASE AGREEMENT
This Master Equity Lease Agreement is entered into this _______ day of _____________________, 20____, by and between Enterprise FM Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (“Lessor”), and the lessee whose name and address is set forth on the signature page below (“Lessee”).

1. LEASE OF VEHICLES: Lessor hereby leases to Lessee and Lessee hereby leases from Lessor the vehicles (individually, a “Vehicle” and collectively, the “Vehicles”) described in the schedules from time to time delivered by Lessor to Lessee as set forth below (“Schedule(s)”) for the rentals and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable Schedule. References to this “Agreement” shall include this Master Equity Lease Agreement and the various Schedules and addenda to this Master Equity Lease Agreement, each of which are incorporated herein as part of a single, unitary Agreement. Lessor will, on or about the date of delivery of each Vehicle to Lessee, send Lessee a Schedule covering the Vehicle, which will include, among other things, a description of the Vehicle, the lease term and the monthly rental and other payments due with respect to the Vehicle. The terms contained in each such Schedule will be binding on Lessee unless Lessee objects in writing to such Schedule within ten (10) days after the date of delivery of the Vehicle covered by such Schedule. Lessor is the sole legal owner of each Vehicle. This Agreement is a lease only and Lessee will have no right, title or interest in or to the Vehicles except for the use of the Vehicles as described in this Agreement. This Agreement shall be treated as a true lease for federal and applicable state income tax purposes with Lessor having all benefits of ownership of the Vehicles. It is understood and agreed that Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. or an affiliate thereof (together with any subservicer, agent, successor or assign as servicer on behalf of Lessor, “Servicer”) may administer this Agreement on behalf of Lessor and may perform the service functions herein provided to be performed by Lessor.

2. TERM: The term of this Agreement (“Term”) for each Vehicle begins on the date such Vehicle is delivered to Lessee (the “Delivery Date”) and, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, continues for the “Lease Term” as described in the applicable Schedule.

3. RENT AND OTHER CHARGES:
(a) Lessee agrees to pay Lessor monthly rental and other payments according to the Schedules and this Agreement. The monthly payments will be in the amount listed as the “Total Monthly Rental Including Additional Services” on the applicable Schedule (with any portion of such amount identified as a charge for maintenance services under Section 4 of the applicable Schedule being payable to Lessor as agent for Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc.) and will be due and payable in advance on the first day of each month. If a Vehicle is delivered to Lessee on any day other than the first day of a month, monthly rental payments will begin on the first day of the next month. In addition to the monthly rental payments, Lessee agrees to pay Lessor a pro-rated rental charge for the number of days that the Delivery Date precedes the first monthly rental payment date. A portion of each monthly rental payment, being the amount designated as “Depreciation Reserve” on the applicable Schedule, will be considered as a reserve for depreciation and will be credited against the Delivered Price of the Vehicle for purposes of computing the Book Value of the Vehicle under Section 3(c). Lessee agrees to pay Lessor the “Total Initial Charges” set forth in each Schedule on the due date of the first monthly rental payment under such Schedule. Lessee agrees to pay Lessor the “Service Charge Due at Lease Termination” set forth in each Schedule at the end of the applicable Term (whether by reason of expiration, early termination or otherwise). (b) In the event the Term for any Vehicle ends prior to the last day of the scheduled Term, whether as a result of a default by Lessee, a Casualty Occurrence or any other reason, the rentals and management fees paid by Lessee will be recalculated in accordance with the rule of 78’s and the adjusted amount will be payable by Lessee to Lessor on the termination date.
(c) Lessee agrees to pay Lessor within thirty (30) days after the end of the Term for each Vehicle, additional rent equal to the excess, if any, of the Book Value of such Vehicle over the greater of (i) the wholesale value of such Vehicle as determined by Lessor in good faith or (ii) except as provided below, twenty percent (20%) of the Delivered Price of such Vehicle as set forth in the applicable Schedule. If the Book Value of such Vehicle is less than the greater of (i) the wholesale value of such Vehicle as determined by Lessor in good faith or (ii) except as provided below, twenty percent (20%) of the Delivered Price of such Vehicle as set forth in the applicable Schedule, Lessor agrees to pay such deficiency to Lessee as a terminal rental adjustment within thirty (30) days after the end of the applicable Term, subject to Lessor’s right to recoup any amounts Lessor would owe to Lessee under this Section 3(c) against any obligations of Lessee to Lessor under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Term for a Vehicle is greater than forty-eight (48) months (including any extension of the Term for such Vehicle), (ii) the mileage on a Vehicle at the end of the Term is greater than 15,000 miles per year on average (prorated on a daily basis) (i.e., if the mileage on a Vehicle with a Term of thirty-six (36) months is greater than 45,000 miles) or (iii) in the sole judgment of Lessor, a Vehicle has been subject to damage or any abnormal or excessive wear and tear, the calculations described in the two immediately preceding sentences shall be made without giving effect to clause (ii) in each such sentence. The “Book Value” of a Vehicle means the sum of (i) the “Delivered Price” of the Vehicle as set forth in the applicable Schedule minus (ii) the total Depreciation Reserve paid by Lessee to Lessor with respect to such Vehicle plus (iii) all accrued and unpaid rent and/or other amounts owed by Lessee with respect to such Vehicle.
(d) Any security deposit of Lessee will be returned to Lessee at the end of the applicable Term, except that the deposit will first be applied to and recouped against any losses and/or damages suffered by Lessor as a result of Lessee’s breach of or default under this Agreement and/or to any other amounts then owed by Lessee to Lessor.
(e) Any rental payment or other amount owed by Lessee to Lessor which is not paid within twenty (20) days after its due date will accrue interest, payable on demand of Lessor, from the date due until paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) Eighteen Percent (18%) per annum or (ii) the highest rate permitted by applicable law (the “Default Rate”).

86 (f) If Lessee fails to pay any amount due under this Agreement or to comply with any of the covenants contained in this Agreement, Lessor, Servicer or any other agent of Lessor may, at its option, pay such amounts or perform such covenants and all sums paid or incurred by Lessor in connection therewith will be repayable by Lessee to Lessor upon demand together with interest thereon at the Default Rate. (g) Lessee’s obligations to make all payments of rent and other amounts under this Agreement are absolute and unconditional and such payments shall be made in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that neither any Casualty Occurrence to any Vehicle nor any defect, unfitness or lack of governmental approval in, of, or with respect to, any Vehicle regardless of the cause or consequence nor any breach by Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. of any maintenance agreement between Enterprise Fleet Management, Inc. and Lessee covering any Vehicle regardless of the cause or consequence will relieve Lessee from the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the payment of rent and other amounts under this Agreement.

4. USE AND SURRENDER OF VEHICLES: Lessee agrees to allow only duly authorized, licensed and insured drivers to use and operate the Vehicles. Lessee agrees to comply with, and cause its drivers to comply with, all laws, statutes, rules, regulations and ordinances (including without limitation such federal, state and local laws, statutes, rules, regulations and ordinances governing autonomous vehicles and automated driving systems and any parts, components and products related thereto) and the provisions of all insurance policies affecting or covering the Vehicles or their use or operation. In connection with autonomous vehicles and automated driving systems and the parts, components and products related thereto, Lessee agrees to comply with all applicable guidance and professional standards issued, released or published by governmental and quasi-governmental agencies, including without limitation the federal guidance for automated vehicles published by the Department of Transportation and the Federal Automated Vehicle Policy issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Lessee agrees to keep the Vehicles free of all liens, charges and encumbrances. Lessee agrees that in no event will any Vehicle be used or operated for transporting hazardous substances or persons for hire, for any illegal purpose or to pull trailers that exceed the manufacturer’s trailer towing recommendations. Lessee agrees that no Vehicle is intended to be or will be utilized as a “school bus” as defined in the Code of Federal Regulations or any applicable state or municipal statute or regulation. Lessee agrees not to remove any Vehicle from the continental United States without first obtaining Lessor’s written consent. At the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement with respect to each Vehicle, or upon demand by Lessor made pursuant to Section 14, Lessee at its risk and expense agrees to return such Vehicle to Lessor at such place and by such reasonable means as may be designated by Lessor. If for any reason Lessee fails to return any Vehicle to Lessor as and when required in accordance with this Section, Lessee agrees to pay Lessor additional rent for such Vehicle at twice the normal pro-rated daily rent. Acceptance of such additional rent by Lessor will in no way limit Lessor’s remedies with respect to Lessee’s failure to return any Vehicle as required hereunder.

5. COSTS, EXPENSES, FEES AND CHARGES: Lessee agrees to pay all costs, expenses, fees, charges, fines, tickets, penalties and taxes (other than federal and state income taxes on the income of Lessor) incurred in connection with the titling, licensing, registration, delivery, purchase, sale, rental, use or operation of the Vehicles during the Term. If Lessor, Servicer or any other agent of Lessor incurs any such costs or expenses, Lessee agrees to promptly reimburse Lessor for the same.

6. LICENSE AND CHARGES: Each Vehicle will be titled, registered and licensed in the name designated by Lessor at Lessee’s expense. Certain other charges relating to the acquisition of each Vehicle and paid or satisfied by Lessor have been capitalized in determining the monthly rental, treated as an initial charge or otherwise charged to Lessee. Such charges have been determined without reduction for trade-in, exchange allowance or other credit attributable to any Lessor- owned vehicle.

7. REGISTRATION PLATES, ETC.: Lessee agrees, at its expense, to obtain in the name designated by Lessor all registration plates and other plates, permits, inspections and/or licenses required in connection with the Vehicles, except for the initial registration plates which Lessor will obtain at Lessee’s expense. The parties agree to cooperate and to furnish any and all information or documentation, which may be reasonably necessary for compliance with the provisions of this Section or any federal, state or local law, rule, regulation or ordinance. Lessee agrees that it will not permit any Vehicle to be located in a state other than the state in which such Vehicle is then titled for any continuous period of time that would require such Vehicle to become subject to the titling, licensing and/or registration laws of such other state.

8. MAINTENANCE OF AND IMPROVEMENTS TO VEHICLES:
(a) Lessee agrees, at its expense, to (i) maintain the Vehicles in good condition, repair, maintenance and running order and in accordance with all manufacturer’s instructions and warranty requirements and all legal requirements and (ii) furnish all labor, materials, parts and other essentials required for the proper operation and maintenance of the Vehicles. Lessee will not make (or cause to be made) any alterations, upgrades, upfitting, additions or improvements (collectively, “Alterations”) to any Vehicle which (i) could impact or impair the “motor vehicle safety” (as defined by the Motor Vehicle Safety Act) of the Vehicle, or (ii) could impact, impair, void or render unenforceable the manufacturer’s warranty. Without the prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee will not make (or cause to be made) any Alterations to any Vehicle which (i) detracts, impairs, damages or alters the Vehicle’s nature, purpose, economic value, remaining useful life, functionality, utility, software or controls, or (ii) subjects the Vehicle or any part or component of such Vehicle to any lien, charge or encumbrance. Any Alterations of any nature to a Vehicle are made at Lessee’s sole cost, risk and liability, including without limitation, any such Alterations approved by, or made with the assistance or at the direction of Lessor. Any replacement parts added to any Vehicle shall be in at least as good an operating condition as the prior part before the replacement (assuming such part was, at the time of the replacement, in the condition required by the terms of this Agreement). Any Alterations to a Vehicle will become and remain the property of Lessor and will be returned with such Vehicle upon such Vehicle’s return pursuant to Section 4 and shall be free of any liens, charges or encumbrances; provided, however, Lessor shall have the right at any time to require Lessee to remove any such Alteration at Lessee’s sole cost, expense and liability. In no event or instance shall the value of any Alterations be regarded as rent.

If the requirements of any governmental or regulatory agency exceed the minimums stated in this Agreement, Lessee must obtain and maintain the higher insurance requirements. Lessee agrees that each required policy of insurance will by appropriate endorsement or otherwise name Lessor and any other person or entity designated by Lessor as additional insureds and loss payees, as their respective interests may appear. Further, each such insurance policy must provide the following: (i) that the same may not be cancelled, changed or modified until after the insurer has given to Lessor, Servicer and any other person or entity designated by Lessor at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such proposed cancellation, change or modification, (ii) that no act or default of Lessee or any other person or entity shall affect the right of Lessor, Servicer, any other agent of Lessor or any of their respective successors or assigns to recover under such policy or policies of insurance in the event of any loss of or damage to any Vehicle and (iii) that the coverage is “primary coverage” for the protection of Lessee, Lessor, Servicer, any other agent of Lessor and their respective successors and assigns notwithstanding any other coverage carried by Lessee, Lessor, Servicer, any other agent of Lessor or any of their respective successors or assigns protecting against similar risks. Original certificates evidencing such coverage and naming Lessor, Servicer, any other agent of Lessor and any other person or entity designated by Lessor as additional insureds and loss payees shall be furnished to Lessor prior to the Delivery Date, and annually thereafter and/or as reasonably requested by Lessor from time to time.

If any claim is made or action commenced for death, personal injury or property damage resulting from the ownership, maintenance, use or operation of any Vehicle, Lessee will promptly notify Lessor of such action or claim and forward to Lessor a copy of every demand, notice, summons or other process received in connection with such claim or action.

In the event of a Casualty Occurrence to a covered Vehicle, Lessor may, at its option, replace, rather than repair, the damaged Vehicle with an equivalent vehicle, which replacement vehicle will then constitute the “Vehicle” for purposes of this Agreement; and (ii) if Section 4 of a Schedule includes a charge for commercial automobile liability enrollment, Lessor agrees that it will, at its expense, obtain for and on behalf of Lessee, by adding Lessee as an additional insured under a commercial automobile liability insurance policy issued by an insurance company selected by Lessor, commercial automobile liability insurance satisfying the minimum commercial automobile liability insurance required under Section 11(a) for the Vehicle(s) covered by such Schedule. Lessor may at any time during the applicable Term terminate said obligation to provide physical damage waiver and/or commercial automobile liability enrollment and cancel such physical damage waiver and/or commercial automobile liability enrollment upon giving Lessee at least ten (10) days prior written notice. Upon such cancellation, insurance in the minimum amounts as set forth in 11(a) shall be obtained and maintained by Lessee at Lessee’s expense. An adjustment will be made in monthly rental charges payable by Lessee to reflect any such change and Lessee agrees to furnish Lessor with satisfactory proof of insurance coverage within ten (10) days after mailing of the notice. In addition, Lessor may change the rates charged by Lessor under this Section 11(b) for physical damage waiver and/or commercial automobile liability enrollment upon giving Lessee at least thirty (30) days prior written notice.

The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the rights, privileges, and immunities of Lessee and the foregoing indemnity provision is not intended to be a waiver of any sovereign immunity afforded to Lessee pursuant to the law.

13. INSPECTION OF VEHICLES; ODOMETER DISCLOSURE; FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Lessee agrees to accomplish, at its expense, all inspections of the Vehicles required by any governmental authority during the Term. Lessor, Servicer, any other agent of Lessor and any of their respective successors or assigns will have the right to inspect any Vehicle at any reasonable time(s) during the Term and for this purpose to enter into or upon any building or place where any Vehicle is located. Lessee agrees to comply with all odometer disclosure laws, rules and regulations and to provide such written and signed disclosure information on such forms and in such manner as directed by Lessor. Providing false information or failure to complete the odometer disclosure form as required by law may result in fines and/or imprisonment. Lessee hereby agrees to promptly deliver to Lessor such financial statements and other financial information regarding Lessee as Lessor may from time to time reasonably request.

14. DEFAULT; REMEDIES: The following shall constitute events of default (“Events of Default”) by Lessee under this Agreement: (a) if Lessee fails to pay when due any rent or other amount due under this Agreement and any such failure shall remain unremedied for ten (10) days; (b) if Lessee fails to perform, keep or observe any term, provision or covenant contained in Section 11 of this Agreement; (c) if Lessee fails to perform, keep or observe any other term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement and any such failure shall remain unremedied for thirty (30) days after written notice thereof is given by Lessor, Servicer or any other agent of Lessor to Lessee; (d) any seizure or confiscation of any Vehicle or any other act (other than a Casualty Occurrence) otherwise rendering any Vehicle unsuitable for use (as determined by Lessor); (e) if any present or future guaranty in favor of Lessor of all or any portion of the obligations of Lessee under Initials: EFM________ Customer________
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7F0E223B-8254-42C1-94D7-924A03BCB708 89 this Agreement shall at any time for any reason cease to be in full force and effect or shall be declared to be null and void by a court of competent jurisdiction, or if the validity or enforceability of any such guaranty shall be contested or denied by any guarantor, or if any guarantor shall deny that it, he or she has any further liability or obligation under any such guaranty or if any guarantor shall fail to comply with or observe any of the terms, provisions or conditions contained in any such guaranty; (f) the occurrence of a material adverse change in the financial condition, a going concern audit comment of Lessee or any guarantoror (g) if Lessee or any guarantor is in default under or fails to comply with any other present or future agreement with or in favor of Lessor, The Crawford Group, Inc. or any direct or indirect subsidiary of The Crawford Group, Inc.. For purposes of this Section 14, the term “guarantor” shall mean any present or future guarantor of all or any portion of the obligations of Lessee under this Agreement.

Any such assignee, pledgee or transferee of any rights or obligations of Lessor under this Agreement will have all of the rights and obligations that have been assigned to it. Lessee’s rights and interest in and to the Vehicles are and will continue at all times to be subject and subordinate in all respects to any assignment, pledge or transfer now or hereafter executed by Lessor with or in favor of any such assignee, pledgee or transferee, provided that Lessee shall have the right of quiet enjoyment of the Vehicles so long as no Event of Default under this Agreement has occurred and is continuing. Lessee acknowledges and agrees that the rights of any assignee, pledgee or transferee in and to any amounts payable by the Lessee under any provisions of this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any abatement whatsoever, or to any defense, setoff, counterclaim or recoupment whatsoever, whether by reason of any damage to or loss or destruction of any Vehicle or by reason of any defect in or failure of title of the Lessor or interruption from whatsoever cause in the use, operation or possession of any Vehicle, or by reason of any indebtedness or liability howsoever and whenever arising of the Lessor or any of its affiliates to the Lessee or to any other person or entity, or for any other reason.

Without the prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee may not assign, sublease, transfer or pledge this Agreement, any Vehicle, or any interest in this Agreement or in and to any Vehicle, or permit its rights under this Agreement or any Vehicle to be subject to any lien, charge or encumbrance.

If any term or provision of this Agreement or any application of any such term or provision is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement and any other application of such term or provision will not be affected thereby. Giving of all notices under this Agreement will be sufficient if mailed by certified mail to a party at its address set forth below or at such other address as such party may provide in writing from time to time. Any such notice mailed to such address will be effective one (1) day after deposit in the United States mail, duly addressed, with certified mail, postage prepaid. Lessee will promptly notify Lessor of any change in Lessee’s address. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile and pdf counterparts), but the counterpart marked “ORIGINAL ” by Lessor will be the original lease for purposes of applicable law.

19. NON-APPROPRIATION: Lessee’s funding of this Agreement shall be on a Fiscal Year basis and is subject to annual appropriations. Lessor acknowledges that Lessee is a municipal corporation, is precluded by the County or State Constitution and other laws from entering into obligations that financially bind future governing bodies, and that, therefore, nothing in this Agreement shall constitute an obligation of future legislative bodies of the County or State to appropriate funds for purposes of this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties agree that the lease terms within this Agreement or any Schedules relating hereto are contingent upon appropriation of funds. The parties further agree that should the County or State fail to appropriate such funds, the Lessor shall be paid all rentals due and owing hereunder up until the actual day of termination. In addition, Lessor reserves the right to be paid for any reasonable damages. These reasonable damages will be limited to the losses incurred by the Lessor for having to sell the vehicles on the open used car market prior to the end of the scheduled term (as determined in Section 3 and Section 14 of this Agreement).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Lessor and Lessee have duly executed this Master Equity Lease Agreement as of the day and year first above written.

FROM: Greg Garner, Chief of Police

SUBJECT: Sole Source Request

I am writing to address the recent inquiries regarding the vehicle lease agreement entered into by the Police Department. Former Finance Director Patrick Chaffee, in consultation with the Police Department, established a lease agreement with Enterprise Fleet Services for a period of three years.

This decision was made to address our immediate need for additional vehicles for both staff and investigative purposes, without incurring a significant capital expenditure upfront.

The agreement was made with the consideration of the approved 2023/2024 budget, which has already allocated funds for vehicle expenditures, as well as the 2024/2025 budget. Given that the overall monthly lease cost is below $5,000 and the annual expenditure cap is less than $30,000, no other lease programs were considered.

Sincerely,

Greg Garner
Chief of Police

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and Councilmembers
From: David Brletic, Community Development Director
Subject: Vacation 2024-01 (VAC 2024-01), summary vacation of an excess portion of right- of-way located on the southwest corner of North Avenue and Industrial Way, 1815 Industrial Way, APN 332-190-49.

Attachments:

A. Location Map
B. City Council Resolution No. 2024-60
CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council a dopt Resolution No. 2024-60 approving VAC 2024- 01, a summary vacation of an excess portion of right -of-way located on the southwest corner of North Avenue and Industrial Way, 1815 Industrial Way, APN 332-190-49, and finding the project is exempt according to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), which is the “general rule” or “common sense” exemption.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

City staff requests approval to vacate an unutilized, excess portion of right-of-way located on the southwest corner of North Avenue and Industrial Way. The portion of right of way bisects 1815 Industrial Way, APN 332-190-49. The vacation would allow a proposed development to move forward, as construction over right-of-way and ingress/egress easements are not allowed. The area to be vacated has not been utilized as a public street, will not require new improvements or modifications to existing streets, nor change the existing configuration of North Avenue or Industrial Way.

The Planning Commission adopted Resolution 2024- 16 on August 22, 2024, which determined that the vacation of the excess public right-of-way for ingress/egress is consistent with the Sanger General Plan and 106
conforms with the requirements of the California Streets and Highways Code, Division 9, Part 3, Chapter 4, Sections 8330 through 8336 for a “summary vacation.”

BACKGROUND:

In 1973, Tract 2490 for the Sanger Industrial Park was recorded which establish 20 individual properties a
long planned Industrial Way. At the time, the Lone Tree Canal ran through a few lots of Tract 2490, mostly Lot 1 and Lot 20, which are the properties closest to North Avenue (current 1815 and 1816 Industrial Way).

For interim access to the properties south of Lot 1 and 20 within the subdivision, a 50ft access easement was recorded on the map that curved south from North Avenue connecting to Industrial Way, avoiding conflict with the existing location of the canal.

A condition of approval of Tract 2490 was to cover and pipe the canal, relocating it underground so that Lot 1 and Lot 20 may be fully utilized and developed. The work was completed as it is found today, with the canal being successfully covered and piped to continue the canal on the eastern side of Tract 2490.

Industrial Way was built and now serves the properties for access to North Avenue.

The City received a development proposal for 1815 Industrial Way from the property owner for expansion of their ex isting business located across the street at 1816 Industrial Way. In reviewing the development proposal, it was found in the title report that the property was incumbered by the aforementioned 50ft access easement for public ingress/egress to the subdivision. Being that the construction regarding piping/covering the canal and construction of Industrial Way is complete, the 50ft access easement is no longer necessary and can be vacated to allow the property development and full utilization of the property.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

Staff has performed a preliminary environmental assessment of the project and recommends the Planning Commission find that find the project is exempt under CEQA Guidelines 15061(b)(3), which is the “general rule” or “common sense” exemption, as it can be found with certainty that there is no possibility that the project may have significant effect on the environment.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

Allows for development of a historically vacant property.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

1. Recitals. The recitals above are true and correct and incorporated herein.

2. General Plan: The excess ROW satisfies the criteria for summary vacation pursuant to Sections 8331, 8333, 8334, and 8334.5 of the California Streets and Highways Code and finds that it d oes not serve as a public benefit. The City Council finds that the summary vacation of the excess ROW is in conformance with the City of Sanger General Plan 109

The summary vacation of the excess ROW is consistent with the General Plan Circulation Element.

3.

4. CEQA. The City Council finds that the project is exempt under CEQA Guidelines 15061(b)(3), as this project is subject to the “general rule” or “common sense” exemption as it can be found with certainty that there is no possibility that the project may have significant effect on the environment.

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and City Council
From: Joaquin Zamora, Recreation Supervisor
Subject: Approval of Part-Time Senior Center Coordinator to help with Fresno-Madera Area Agency on Aging (FMAAA) Senior Meal Program and other Senior Center programming.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council approve a part time Senior Center Coordinator for the senior center to assist during the Senior Meal Program hours as the program continuously grows.

E

XECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Fresno-Madera Area Agency on Aging (FMAAA) contract is an ongoing agreement that provides funding utilized solely for the Senior Meal Program offered at the City of Sanger Senior Center. An audit of the senior meal program conducted by FMAAA, found that more assistance was needed for administration of the program. FMAAA funds are utilized to assist in partially funding staff for the purpose of administering the Senior Meal Program.

BACKGROUND

The City of Sanger operates a senior center at the Sanger Community Center. The senior center coordinator is responsible for daily oversight of the senior center and programs run within the senior center. The senior center is well attended, with an average of 51 senior residents visiting the center daily 113

and an average of 46 lunches provided daily. The center provides a safe location for senior residents to play games, obtain a lunch provided by FMAAA, and participate in other activities.

The senior center coordinator is supervised by the Recreation Supervisor but is the only assigned staff member on site at the senior center for most of the day.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION
FMAAA provided a recommendation, through an audit of the senior meal program, to bring in a part time employee to assist with meal distribution due to the growing number of community members attending during meal distribution and participating in the program. In order to remain compliant with the grant, the city is recommending a part time position Bebe assigned to the senior center to assist with the Senior Meal Program and other activities provided within the center.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total amount of FMAAA funds awarded to the City of Sanger for the FY 2024-2025 is $24,000 and is to be used specifically for the Senior Program. The acceptance of the grant requires the City to provide matching funds from program donations and/or the City’s General Fund. The matching funds were anticipated in the adopted City Budget. The grant match is comprised of portions of allowable staff salary and benefits for their participation in the administration of this program. The City will utilize the FMAAA grant to fund twenty (20) percent of the part time salary, and the rest will be funded through the general fund. The total cost of the position is estimated to be $36.000, of which FMAAA will cover $4,000 and the general fund will be responsible for $32,000.

A

LTERNATIVES
Council may elect not to approve adding a part time employee and an existing staff member, trained in food handling, would be required to assist with food distribution daily.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL
Staff recommends approval of the part time position and authorizes human resources to begin recruiting for the position.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends the City Council conduct the public hearing and adopt Resolution No. 2024-61, a resolution of the City Council approving the following actions:
115
a) Approving Housing Element Update CEQA Exemption Technical Memorandum and Environmental Assessment "common sense" exemption under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).
b) Adopting the 2023-2031 City of Sanger Housing Element, as required by State law. c) Directing City staff to submit the adopted 2023-2031 Housing Element to the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for certification. d) Authorizing City staff to make minor administrative edits to the adopted 2023 -2031 Housing Element, as may be required for certification.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The Housing Element is a State-mandated eight-year policy document that is a component of the Sanger General Plan. The overall purpose of the Housing Element Update is to identify current and projected housing needs, show locations where housing can be built, and set goals, policies, and programs to meet the community's housing needs.

The City prepared its Housing Element as part of a Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Element regional effort in collaboration with the Fresno County Council of Governments, Fresno County, and thirteen other cities in Fresno County.

The Fresno County Council of Governments contracted with PlaceWorks and team members Ascent, Provost & Pritchard, and the California Coalition of Rural Housing to assist Fresno County and the cities within the Multi-Jurisdiction Housing Element Update.

The Multi-Jurisdiction Housing Element is a single document composed of two sections:
1) the main body, which describes demographics, housing needs, resources, and constraints at the county level and includes goals and policies common to all participating jurisdictions; and 2) individual appendices for each jurisdiction. The City of Sanger’s appendix contains key details such as the City’s sites inventory, an evaluation of the City’s existing Housing Element and any governmental constraints, as well as the City of Sanger’s specific implementation programs.

Prior to adopting this Housing Element, State law requires the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to administer the law by reviewing housing elements for compliance with State law and by reporting its written findings to the local jurisdiction. The City submitted its initial draft to HCD on October 9, 2023. HCD provided a letter with findings dated January 4, 2024. The City revised the draft in response to the letter and resubmitted it to HCD on April 24, 2024. The City received a letter from HCD on June 21, 2024, stating the City had achieved conditional compliance with State Housing Element Law (Gov. Code, § 65580 et seq). Upon the City Council’s adoption of the 2023-2031 Housing Element, the adopted draft will be submitted to HCD for a final certification review.

On August 22, 2024, staff presented the 2023-2031 Sanger Housing Element to the Planning Commission for their recommendation to the City Council of the City of Sanger regarding amending the City's General Plan to include the 2023-2031 City of Sanger Housing Element. Staff also recommended that the Planning Commission recommend that the City Council direct City staff to complete minor administrative edits as needed after adoption in order to address any remaining comments from HCD required for certification. 116
Planning Commission Resolution No. 2024-15 was adopted at the August 22, 2024 meeting which made the above recommendations to the City Council.

BACKGROUND:

California Housing Element law requires every jurisdiction to prepare and adopt a housing element as part of its General Plan. State Housing Element requirements are framed in the California Government Code, Sections 65580 through 65589, Chapter 1143, Article 10.6. The law requires the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) to administer the law by reviewing Housing Elements for compliance with State law and by reporting its written findings to the local jurisdiction. Although State law allows local governments to decide when to update their General Plans, State Housing Element law mandates that Housing Elements be updated every eight years. The Housing Element must include:
1) an identification and analysis of existing and projected local housing needs; 2) an identification of resources and constraints; and
3) goals, policies, and implementation programs for the rehabilitation, maintenance, improvement, and development of housing for all economic segments of the population.

The foundation of the Housing Element is the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), which begins with a determination of housing need issued by the California Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) and allocated by the Fresno Council of Governments (FCOG). A jurisdiction is required to demonstrate whether it has sufficient capacity to achieve its RHNA. However, identification of a site's capacity does not guarantee that construction will occur on that site, as the actual construction of units would occur as a result of a development application from a developer.

The RHNA for Sanger for this Housing Element Update is 1,494 units, including 412 very low-income units, 193 low-income units, 245 moderate-income units, and 644 above moderate-income units.

Accounting for approved and pending projects (including ADUs), vacant site capacity, and the projected ADUs, the City has a surplus of 614 units. Breaking this down by income category, the City has a surplus of 37 units in the lower-income (including extremely low, very low-, and low-income) category, a 207- unit surplus in the moderate-income category, and a 370-unit surplus in the above moderate-income category.

PUBLIC NOTICING:

Pursuant to the Government Code Section 65091 (Planning and Zoning Law) and Sanger Municipal Code, Section 17.76.040, it is required that a notice be published in a newspaper and be sent to interested parties. The public hearing notice was published in the Mid Valley Times on August 25, 2024.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

Housing Element Update CEQA Exemption Technical Memorandum (see attachment 3.a.) determined that the project is exempt as a "common sense" exemption under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

Compliance with California Housing Element law.
117

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

ALTERNATIVES:

The City Council may choose not to approve Resolution No. 2024-61. If so, staff requests the Council provide specific reasons for doing so and direct staff accordingly.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

Staff will coordinate submittal of the 2023 -2031 City of Sanger Housing Element to the California Housing and Community Development Department (HCD).

CITY OF SANGER

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL

To: Mayor and Council Members
From: Michelle Speer, Assistant City Manager
Becky Padron, City Clerk/Deputy Personnel Officer

Subject: Compensation Changes for Unrepresented Confidential Group and Unclassified Executive Management Positions
Attachments: (A) Resolution No. 2024-62 with Exhibits
(B) Exhibit A – Salary Ranges for Unrepresented Confidential Employees and Unclassified Executive Management Positions
(C) Exhibit B – Updated Confidential/Unrepresented Group Compensation and Benefit Summary for Fiscal Year 2024-25

CONFLICT OF INTEREST:

None known.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the City Council:
(a) Adopt Resolution No. 2024-62 approving a 5% salary increase effective July 1, 2024 and establishing Christmas Eve as a paid holiday for all Unrepresented Confidential employees and Unclassified Executive Management Positions; and
(b) Approve the updated Confidential/Unrepresented Group Compensation and Benefits Summary for FY 2024-25.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

At the August 15, 2024 City Council meeting, the Council approved new Human Resources Analyst and Human Resources Manager positions, and reclassified an existing Management Analyst to Administrative Analyst. At that meeting, the Council established an Unrepresented Confidential group for positions that involve access to sensitive data and financial information. The new Human Resources Analyst and 226

Human Resources Manager, the reclassified Administrative Analyst, and the existing Finance Manager comprise the Unrepresented/Confidential Group. It is the intent that compensation and benefit changes afforded to the Unrepresented Confidential employees align with those of Mid Management in order to maintain internal equity and external competitiveness. Traditionally, the same practice has been followed for Executive Management.

BACKGROUND:

In a separate item on this agenda, the City Council will be considering a one-year extension of the MOU between the City and Mid Management. The proposed MOU includes a 5% salary increase and Christmas Eve as a paid holiday. As stated, providing the same compensation and benefit changes to unrepresented employees and unclassified executive management helps to ensure internal equity and external competitiveness, and avoid salary compaction.

REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:

The recommended compensation and benefit changes align with proposed benefit changes to Mid Management, SPOA and Local 39, which the Council will be considering in separate items on this agenda.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The total cost of the negotiated increases related to the MOU are approximately $62,700. If approved, the mid-year budget revision will be modified to include the increases.

ALTERNATIVES:

None.

ACTIONS FOLLOWING APPROVAL:

If approved, the Staff will implement the compensation and benefit changes.
