CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: August 15, 2022
______________________________________________________________________________ ITEM NO: 2.

SUBJECT: Consideration of an Ordinance Amendment (Submittal No. 2022-0016) to Selma Municipal Code Section 11-28-8 Billboards (Off-Premise Advertising Sign Structure) Public Hearing, Introduction and First Reading ______________________________________________________________________________ DISCUSSION: In 2021, an application (ZTA 2021-0010) was submitted to the City to revise the existing Municipal Code policies regulating billboards. That request was considered at a Planning Commission meeting in September of 2021 where the Planning Commission voted to adopt a resolution recommending that the City Council approve.

The City Council held a public hearing on October 18, 2021, and then voted to continue the request to the November 1, 2021 meeting, with a request for staff to include additional background information into the Staff Report Package. Following the October 18th meeting, staff received inquiries about the proposed ordinance from another billboard company with billboards already in the City. On November 1, 2021, the City Council continued the application request to the November 15, 2021 meeting, without discussion.

The City Council held a public hearing on November 15, 2021 to consider the item. Following staff’s presentation, public comment and Council discussion, a motion and second were made to approve ZTA Application No 2021-0010. However, the Council vote resulted in a 2-3 vote, and thus the motion failed. Subsequent to the aforementioned vote, Council directed staff to organize collaboration with billboard sign stakeholders (billboard advertising companies) in an effort to gain consensus on the proposed zone text amendment language and bring an item back to Council for their consideration at a later date. Following this directive, staff immediately began outreach to the stakeholders to organize a collaborative process, and has remained engaged with the group on such efforts, to date.

As staff continued to work with the stakeholder group to formalize a draft text amendment for Council’s consideration, it became clear that there was a misunderstanding in regards to the status of ZTA 2021-0010. With no additional motion made in regard to ZTA 2021-0010 at the November 15, 2021 public hearing, it is crucial to notate that the application was deemed denied, having failed by vote. Unfortunately, the confusion relating to the status of ZTA 2021-0010 resulted in a public hearing notice utilizing this application number to be sent as the stakeholderinclusive text amendment process was moving forward. Said public hearing was continued by Council to the August 1, 2022 Council Meeting. To ensure clarity and transparency, staff recommended that Council hold the continued public hearing to formally acknowledge the ZTA 2021-0010 was deemed denied on November 15, 2021, having failed by vote. Council unanimously supported this action by resolution approval.

August 15, 2022 Council Packet 26
For this collaborative draft text amendment process, staff has been engaging with various stakeholders in different capacities in order to obtain insight and preference on industry standards and proposed language for the proposed ordinance. Notably, City Staff conducted “roundtable” meetings online via Microsoft Teams with all interested parties and stakeholders for the new proposed City-driven Zoning Text Amendment No. 2022-0016.

The Staff initiated roundtable meetings occurred on the following dates:
• May 20, 2022
• June 10, 2022
• June 24, 2022
Throughout the process, the stakeholder group has been invited to submit feedback, review and comment on all draft materials, and continually engage in the process to reach a draft amendment. While not all of the requested items delivered by the stakeholder group are included within the final proposed draft, all such items were openly considered and discussed throughout the process.

The table on the following pages highlights the significant proposed changes and additions to Section 11-28-8 (Billboards Off-Premise Advertising Sign Structure):

Exhibits are attached showing size comparisons of billboards that are currently allowed versus what would be allowed under the proposed ordinance amendments (Exhibits A & B). The illustrations show the current maximum height for billboards is 32 feet and the current sign face size is 300 square feet. The draft proposal would increase the maximum allowed height to 50 feet and the maximum allowed sign face size to 672 square feet. The proposal would increase the maximum allowed height by 56% and the maximum allowed sign face size by 124%. Furthermore, the amendment will increase the existing minimum height standard from 7 feet to 20 feet, which is a 186% percent increase. The amendment will also include some variability of height measurements when located or affected by a great height differential of State Route 99 right-of-way grade.

The proposed ordinance also expands the areas of the City where billboards are permitted.

The current code restricts billboards to the M-1 and M-2 zones that are located south of Park Street and within 200 feet of Highway 99. The proposed amendment would still limit billboards only to the M-1 and M-2 zones and within 200 feet of Highway 99. However, the proposed amendment would remove “South Park Street” as a limitation. This would open a new area for billboards on the north side of the city roughly between the Huntsman Avenue and Springfield Avenue alignments along Highway 99. Exhibit C shows the locations where billboards are currently allowed and the proposed new area. In addition, the original amendment proposes a citywide billboard capacity threshold of a total of 24 billboard faces will be permitted within the City Limits. The recommendation given by the Planning Commission is to reduce the total number from 24 billboard faces to 12 billboard faces.

If the amendment is approved, new billboards and legal conforming billboards that proposed significant upgrades would still be required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Design guidelines have been added that require architectural embellishments on support columns and City of Selma branding. This would be enforced through the CUP process.

Subsection D of the proposed ordinance amendment adds wording to allow electronic message boards on billboards. Specific standards for electronic message displays and LED billboard signs include the requirement to meet Caltrans Outdoor Advertising (ODA) standards, use of signs for emergency messaging, and correcting a malfunction. Caltrans ODA regulates sign appearances including, but not limited to, allowable levels of brightness, how often copy can change, and a prohibition of animated messaging.

August 15, 2022 Council Packet 30
Also attached to this staff report is an explanation of the brightness guidelines that Caltrans enforces and the State law regarding billboard luminescence. This law and guidelines provide standards for how bright the electronic message billboard may be during certain times of the day. The proposed ordinance does not address luminescence so that it can be enforced uniformly by Caltrans.

Planning Commission Role in Amendment to Zoning Regulations The proposed ZTA No. 2022-0016 amendment to Section 11-28-8 of the SMC, was presented to Planning Commission on August 8, 2022. Following Staff’s presentation and public comment, the Planning Commission deliberated and made a motion to recommend approval of ZTA 2022-0016 to the City Council with the added notation that the total citywide capacity threshold be reduced from 24 billboard faces to 12 billboard faces. The specific change is reflected in the following text in Section 11-28-8 (A.3). The City Council will make the final determination.

Proposed Text of the Ordinance Amendment

Environmental (CEQA)
This project is exempt under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section15061(b)(3) and Section 15183. The project is exempt under the “common sense” exemption because it does not involve the construction or alteration of facilities that will have a significant effect on the environment. The project includes a Zoning Text Amendment to amend the Selma Municipal Code (SMC) Section 11-28-8: Billboards (off-premises sign structure). Billboards are required to apply for a discretionary permit (CUP) prior to approval and construction. Adherence to the Caltrans Outdoor Advertising Standards will reduce aesthetic and safety impacts to less than significant. The aesthetic impacts of LED billboards have been studied in the past and impacts were shown to be less than significant. The project is exempt under Section 15183 because the existing SMC allows for freeway-oriented signs up to 75 feet high and the M-2 zone district allows for building heights of 100 feet. Therefore, the proposed changes to the billboard code do not exceed similar standards previously adopted.

There are at least two ways to evaluate the brightness of a LED digital display. A preferred method uses a footcandle meter to determine the amount of light that reaches various points in front of the digital display. A second method uses a luminance meter (frequently called a nit gun) to determine the amount of light emitted by a light source.

Explanation of Footcandles vs. Nits
A brightness standard measured in nits (candelas/square meter) typically contains a maximum value for daytime and nighttime. The footcandle standard has only one value but is measured from different distances based on display size.

An LED sign generates luminance at the source (measured in nits), but this raw source is not what the human eye sees from a distance. The human eye sees illuminance (measured in foot candles) from a point at a certain distance from the LED sign. Illuminance is greatly affected by ambient light and surrounding conditions. As such, it is usually preferred by regulators.

Q: What is the definition of Luminance1?
lu⋅mi⋅nance/ˈlumənəns/ [loo-muh-nuhns]–noun

1. The state or quality of being luminous.

2. Also called luminosity, the quality or condition of radiating or reflecting light: the blinding luminance of the sun.

3. Optics - The quantitative measure of brightness of a light source or an illuminated surface, equal to luminous flux per unit solid angle emitted per unit projected area of the source or surface.

Q: What is the definition of Illuminance?
/iˈlumənəns/ Compare irradiance E v, Sometimes called: illumination the luminous flux incident on unit area of a surface. It is measured in lux2

Q: What is a foot candle?
n. (Abbr. fc or ft-c)
[foot-kan-dl]
noun Optics.

A unit of illuminance or illumination, equivalent to the illumination produced by a source of one candle at a distance of one foot and equal to one lumen incident per square foot. Abbreviation: FC3 Also:

A unit of illuminance on a surface that is everywhere one foot from a point source of one candle4 1 Dictionary.com http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/luminance?s=t 2 Dictionary.com http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/illuminance?s=ts 3 Dictionary.com http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/foot+candle?s=t 4 TheFreeDictionary.com http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Footcandle Explanation of OAAA Recommended Brightness Guidelines

Q: What is a nit?
A:
noun Physics.
a unit of luminous intensity equal to one candela per square meter. Abbreviation: nt5 -A unit of illuminative brightness equal to one candle per square meter, measured perpendicular to the rays of the source.6
5 Dictionary.com http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/nits?s=t 6 TheFreeDictionary.com http://www.thefreedictionary.com/nit 7 Nit gun readings are most accurate when the readings are taken directly perpendicular from the light source. As a result, the best place to take Nit gun readings is from a elevated height perpendicular to the digital display. If this is not possible, moving back from the digital display 350' to 500' on the center line will minimize the loss of accuracy. However, the distance away from the digital display cannot cause the nit gun measurement circle to fall outside the lighted digital billboard face.

-Source: Dr. Ian Lewin, Ph.D. Lighting Sciences, Inc. Digital Billboard Recommendations and Comparisons to Conventional Billboards.

Why use Foot candles over Nits as a unit of measurement? - Foot candles measure the variance from ambient light. This assures a government that the sign will not be too bright for conditions. At different parts of a day the ambient lighting can be significantly different with clouds or fog. Conversely, the same can be true about nighttime conditions when an adjacent commercial lot turns on or off their parking lot lighting.

Regulation using Nits merely sets a maximum and minimum level for day and night time conditions. Using the foot candle standard will not allow the sign to be too bright under a variety of conditions. (See Figure A2)
- Nits measure the brightness of the light at its source, without regard to ambient light.

Establishing a lighting standard that ignores the brightness of the area (ambient light) allows the digital billboard to be too bright in dark environments and too dim in highly illuminated areas. In other words, fixed nit standards can allow the digital to operate at significantly higher luminance than is needed over the course of a 24 hour period. - Nits: To measure nits you need to be directly perpendicular to the sign to measure, and get an accurate measurement. This is factored horizontally and vertically. There is a little bit of leeway on angle. Nits are directional in nature and billboard signs are usually aimed directly at the middle of the roadway. This in many cases puts the person performing the measurement in the travel lanes. In addition, due to the height of the average digital billboard a truck with a man-lift may be required. There is no specified distance you must be away from the sign to measure. (See Figure A2)
- Footcandles: With the footcandle standard you should be as perpendicular to the face as you can, but you do not have to be, to get a valid, accurate measurement. Footcandles can be measured multi directionally. You can take measurements at an angle to the sign face and receive valid measurements. The distance from which to measure is set at 250 ft away from the sign face for 14 x 48 size. This gives a regulator more options on places to stand. - This makes the footcandle standard superior in ease of implementation. But even if we assumed they are both different, but similar in this regard, other more important factors tip the scales.
• The footcandle standard is more restrictive in terms of lighting allowed, in a variety of conditions. As such, is usually preferred by regulators once they are educated on the differences.
• The industry footcandle standard is tied to a required light sensor and dimming software. • Footcandles measure what the driver sees through their windshield in terms of light, where his car is.
• Nits measure the light emanating from the sign face, typically a few hundred feet away.

Not necessarily what the driver is seeing.
- It also can benefit a government to use foot-candles instead of Nits as Nit guns are very expensive (estimated cost $3,000.00). Light meters can cost as little as $250.00.

There are 3 necessary components to insure a digital billboard will never be too bright for conditions.

1. Maximum brightness limits incorporating a footcandle standard

2. An ambient light sensor installed on the sign structure

3. Dimming software
The ambient light level of a digital billboard will not vary significantly from that of a traditional billboard display and, in many cases it will be less. The light output levels will be set to be appropriate for the surroundings.

August 15, 2022 Council Packet 55
OAAA recognized/member companies utilize a photocell on digital billboards so that the display will easily be seen by motorists under changing light conditions. Sophisticated dimming software constantly changes the brightness of the display in response to changing ambient lighting conditions.

This insures a digital billboard will never be too bright for conditions.

The range of brightness varies greatly between daytime and nighttime conditions. In bright daylight, the unit must have higher intensity in order to be seen. During darkness conditions, the brightness can be set low and still be easily seen by motorists.

Why was 0.3 Footcandles chosen as the limit?
The 0.3 footcandle maximum illuminance level was carefully derived from a report completed by a former president of the IESNA.8 The recommended technique is based on accepted IESNA practice for “light trespass.”
The Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA) commissioned Dr. Ian Lewin, in 2008 a principal at Lighting Sciences, Inc., Scottsdale, AZ, to recommend criteria for brightness levels on digital billboards9. The standards are designed to minimize the risk of glare or unreasonable driver distraction.

Footcandle measurements are commonly used throughout the United States. Footcandle measures are widely used in the lighting industry, photography, film, television, conservation lighting, and construction related engineering and building code regulations10. In addition, footcandles are frequently cited in OSHA regulations. The OAAA believes that these lighting standards reflect the best practices of the Out of Home Industry.

Appendix
OAAA Recommended Brightness Guidelines
Criteria #1 - Lighting Standards – Measurements:

The industry recommended criteria follows the lighting standards established by the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA). The OAAA and member companies voluntarily adhere to the following guidance.

Recommended regulatory criteria:

Lighting levels should not exceed 0.3 foot candles (over ambient levels) as measured using a foot candle meter at a pre-set distance.

Pre-set distances to measure the foot candles impact vary with the expected viewing distances of each size sign. Measurements should be taken as close to perpendicular to the face as practical.

Measurement distance criteria:

Nominal Face Size Distance to Measure
From
12’ x 24’ 150’
10’6 x 36’ 200’
14’ x 48’ 250’
20’ x 60’ 350’
Each display must have a light sensing device that will adjust the brightness as ambient light conditions change.

Criteria #2 - Alternate Regulatory Criteria
The brightness of light emitted from a changeable message sign should not exceed 0.3 foot candles over ambient light levels measured at a distance of one hundred fifty feet (150') feet for those sign faces less than or equal to three hundred square feet (300 sq. ft.), measured at a distance of two hundred feet (200 ft.), for those sign faces greater than three hundred square feet (300 sq. ft.) but less than or equal to three hundred eighty-five square feet (385 sq. ft.), measured at a distance of two hundred fifty feet (250 ft.), for those sign faces greater than three hundred eighty-five square feet (385 sq. ft.) and less than or equal to six hundred eighty square feet (680 sq. ft.), measured at a distance of three hundred fifty feet (350 ft.) for those sign faces greater than six hundred eighty square feet (680 sq. ft.)
Or use Alternate Table:

Sign Face Size Distance of
Measurement
681-1200 square feet 350 feet
385-680 square feet 250 feet
300-385 square feet 200 feet
200-300 square feet 150 feet
Each display must have a light sensing device that will adjust the brightness as ambient light conditions change.

RE: Billboard Ordinance, Draft, Height, Size, Zoning for the City of Selma, Review of Meeting 6.10.22 Dear Mr. Stearns,
Thank you very much for hosting the most recent Billboard Ordinance review meeting.

Westcoast Billboards is in support of moving forward with the new Sign Ordinance proposed by Staff.

We would like to suggest Staff change a few items within the proposed Ordinance. (B) Placement – Measurements will be from the same side of the Freeway © Design – Height of billboard should be 55’ as approved by the Planning Commission and not objected to by the City Council
€ Upgrades – define what an upgrade is. That this does not include an upgrade from static to digital sign.

I would also like to bring to the attention of Staff, Planning Commission and City Council some of the items brought up by the participants.

Sun Outdoor once again spent time “muddying” the waters to stall the process. It was suggested by Sun Outdoor that the current Billboard Ordinance and proposed issue of On Premise signs be tied together. These two sign issues should remain separate and distinct issues.

Outfront continues to want to participate in the process but hasn’t done any work since their original letter on October 28, 2021. They attended the June on-line meeting and stated that they would put a letter together with their thoughts and ideas.

To date, Westcoast has not seen any documents from Outfront or Sun. Westcoast believes in the best interest of the Industry and the City, that all participants should have an opportunity to see all materials submitted and to debate them in an additional on-line meeting.

August 15, 2022 Council Packet 62
Westcoast would like to remind all participants in the process that we support the following:

1. Height – 55’ overall increases the visibility of the signs to the traveling public. It reduces the blockage caused by tractor trailers and other large vehicles. It’s good for the advertisers who have complained in the past about cross read visibility. Lastly it anticipates that in the future Cal Trans could build sound walls and block existing signage that is lower than 55’ overall

2. Size – 14’ x 48’ is a larger format and the standard for advertisers across the Country. It gives local business a bigger bang for the buck and makes them a larger presence on the freeway.

3. California Highway Patrol – remove the language that asks for “approval” from CHP. Westcoast would like this completely removed since there is no language to support this request in the Cal Trans Regs or Laws.

4. Variances – only as a last resort if these items can’t be agreed upon.

Again, Westcoast would like to thank Staff for its thorough job on working with the Industry.

Sincerely,
Jeremy Gregory

Dear Trevor,
I wanted to write a quick note to express our disappointment with the newly proposed changes to the ordinance as reflected in our Friday meeting.. Once again, it seems clear to us that the playing field is being unfairly tilted against the existing billboard companies, who have a long history of supporting Selma and its businesses and citizens. For whatever reason, our concerns are not being seriously listened to. This entire process seems pre-determined and driven to provide special economic privilege, at whatever cost. We are perplexed at the level of control and influence being exerted. That said, in good faith, we will continue to participate in the process. However, we believe the public should be immediately notified of the proposed changes, so that they can share their views earlier than later.

In that regard, we are willing to participate in the immediate direct mailing of a notification to the public as we believe the current pressure being applied to increase both the number, size and height of billboards is highly unusual, to say the least. We participated in another jurisdiction by mailing a detailed explanation and notice to 30,000 registered voters explaining to them the merits of regulatory change. While we appreciate the inclusion of other billboard companies in the process, after all is said and done, it is the public who deserves to know in advance what is being proposed and to have their voices and opinions heard now. In our view, the intense pressure being placed on the City to modify their ordinance in a manner to benefit and facilitate this request is inappropriate.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: ___________________________
ITEM NO: 3.

SUBJECT: Consideration of a Resolution Approving the Terms of a Private Placement, a Placement Agent and Authorizing Certain Other Actions in Connection with Issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds
DISCUSSION: Over the past several months, the City Council has conducted several public workshops to consider the restructuring of its Unfunded Accrued Liability (UAL) associated with its CalPERS retirement plans. The workshops have been coordinated by Mr. Eric Scriven, Principal, with NHA Advisors, LLC, the City’s contracted municipal advisor, and City staff.

The primary purpose in exploring the restructuring of the UAL is to in effect refinance the UAL debt at an interest rate lower than the interest rate (known as the “Discount Rate”) assessed by CalPERS, presently set at 6.8%. The annual debt payments made to CalPERS toward the UAL have increased from $690,000 in 2018 to approximately $1,444,000 expected in 2022. Furthermore, it is anticipated that these payments will increase to $2,090,000 by 2032. Overall, the City’s UAL debt with CalPERS has grown from $11.4 million to $17.8 million over the last 7 years due to CalPERS investment underperformance and assumption changes. While the strong CalPERS investment returns in FY 2020-21 of

21.3% are expected to offset a discount rate (CalPERS’ expected rate of return) reduction from 7.0% to 6.8% and bring the City’s UAL down to about $11.8 million, CalPERS’ investment performance of negative 6.1% in FY 2021-22 is anticipated to bring the City’s UAL back up to approximately $18.6 million once reflected in the future Fall 2023 actuarial valuation reports. The projections have been updated and confirmed with CalPERS on Tuesday, August 10th.

At the regular meeting on January 18, 2022, the Council decided to approve the issuance of pension obligation bonds (POBs), the form of a trust agreement and the commencement of a validation action. With the validation period having completed successfully in July 2022, the City is now able to move forward with the issuance of POBs.

At the workshop on August 1, 2022, the Council received a presentation outlining considerations and potential savings impacts from a POB based on an indicative bank interest rate of 4.30%. This rate reflects favorable relationship pricing given that estimated POB interest rates in the public markets are currently well over 5.25%. This rate is contingent on a $4 million relationship deposit with the bank. At the meeting, City Council voted 3-2 to move forward with the private placement execution.

Since that time, the City Manager and NHA Advisors have continued to work with CalPERS to get a more accurate projection of the UAL debt, as well as with Umpqua Bank to refine the terms of the financing. Based on the draft term sheet received by Umpqua Bank, the proposed terms are as follows:

August 15, 2022
August 15, 2022 Council Packet 67
 Size: Up to $16.5 million
 Term: 20 to 24 years
 Interest Rate: 4.30%
 Pre-Payment Terms: 7 years @ no penalty; callable earlier than 7 years at a slight penalty The attached Resolution, if approved by City Council, will approve the key terms of the Private Placement as outlined in the term sheet, as well as approve the retention of Brandis Tallman, a Division of Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. as Placement Agent for the POBs. For the issuance of bonds and securities (not including loans, per SEC guidance), it is a requirement to engage an “intermediary” firm that holds a broker-dealer license (Series 7 registration).

For public offerings, this intermediary is called an “Underwriter” and for direct placements, a “Placement Agent.” Brandis Tallman is the most active firm in California in the private placement market, as well as the most active firm for POB private placements. As part of the interest rate bidding process, they have solicited bids from over 20 banks. No other bank was able to offer the low rate and flexible terms that Umpqua Bank has proposed.

Projected Savings Analysis and Recommended Option
For the presentation on August 15th, NHA Advisors will walk through several sizing and term options for the City Council’s consideration and feedback. Two of the options (20- and 24-year term) will include only paying off $11.8 million of UAL. Three other options will include paying off approximately $15.2M of UAL, under 20-, 22- and 24-year term options. Given that the City’s UAL will be increasing to $18.6M, NHA and the City Manager felt it was prudent to include a more refined/larger sizing option to “get ahead of” some of this new UAL debt that will be added next year – converting it from 6.8% CalPERS debt to 4.3% POB debt. A $15.2 million size will bring the City’s funding ratios into the mid-90% range, while the smaller $11.8 million option will increase the funding ratio to about 91%. It is not recommended sizing up all the way to $18.6 million given the risk of overfunding (>100%), as well as the fact the City may be able to address the approximately $3.4 million of UAL that will be remaining with CalPERS by applying Section 115 Trust funds in the future.

The presentation will provide detail & analysis for each option, with a summary of projected savings below.

Based on a thorough review of the options and savings estimates by NHA Advisors and the City Manager, the preliminary recommended option is the $15.2 million sizing at a 22-year term. The larger options provide significantly more present value savings ($1.6 million) vs. the smaller option ($880K) and brings the funding ratios of each plan up to a higher 96% level. The 22-year term is a practical balance between the 20 and 24-year options – and corresponds to the 22-year term that CalPERS currently sets for the City’s UAL. Projected savings over the next 12 years under this option is about $5.5M. Unlike the 24-year option which projects for negative cumulative savings, the 22-year option produces positive estimated ($380K) cumulative savings.

A chart depicting payments for the $15.2M 22-year POB (light blue bars), along with the unrefunded UAL (grey bars), is shown below. This is contrasted against the payments the City is projected to make to CalPERS if it does not move forward with a POB (shown in the orange line).

SCHEDULE:

Assuming the City Council approves the resolution, the financing team will move forward with locking the interest rate set forth in the bank term sheet and proceed with the closing process for the financing. With timely execution, the financing would be expected to close on August 29, 2022.

RESOLUTION:

The resolution being approved authorizes staff to complete the POB financing and approves the Umpqua Bank Term Sheet.

DOCUMENTS FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL:

Umpqua Bank Preliminary Term Sheet: The Term Sheet is a summary of agreement between the City and Umpqua Bank that identifies the key financing terms and conditions under which the POBs are to be issued. In addition to the key financing terms set forth in the proposed term sheet, the financing team expects the bank and its counsel to require certain provisions in the trust agreement for the POBs, including: reporting on the City budget, notice of any material litigation, restrictions on deposit withdrawals from the bank, and August 15, 2022 Council Packet 69
representations and covenants regarding anti-corruption laws, no sovereign immunity, no material environmental matters, no dealings with terrorists or other restricted persons, waiver of jury trial and restrictions while the bank holds the POBs on amendments to the trust agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The placement agent costs in connection with the issuance and delivery of the proposed pension obligation bonds are capped at $20,000 and will be paid from bond proceeds, contingent upon closing, with no budgetary impact.

RECOMMENDATION: 1) Adopt Resolution Approving the Terms of a Private Placement, a Placement Agent, and Authorizing Certain Other Actions in Connection Therewith; 2) Approve the Recommended POB Structure: $15.2 Million of UAL Refinanced over a 22-Year Term

CITY MANAGER’S/STAFF’S REPORT
CITY COUNCIL MEETING:

ITEM NO: 5.

SUBJECT:

BACKGROUND: Pursuant to Section 36506 of the California Government Code, the City Council shall by Resolution or Ordinance, fix the compensation of all appointive officers and employees. In addition, pursuant to 570.5 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations, pay rates for City employees must be approved and adopted by the City Council in accordance with requirements of public meeting laws and be publicly available in a salary schedule which identifies position titles, pay rates, and the time base of compensation including whether the time base is hourly, daily, bi-weekly, monthly, bimonthly, or annually. Furthermore, the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS), requests all CalPERS contracted employers to list their compensation levels in one document, approved and adopted by the governing body, in accordance with Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations.

As a result of the above statutory requirements, the City Council has adopted a Master Salary Schedule listing all job classifications approved by the City Council including corresponding pay rates and the time base of compensation.

DISCUSSION: The Resolution before the City Council would amend the Master Salary Schedule to reflect only the proposed title change of the Administrative Analyst (Economic Development Analyst) to Management Analyst (Economic Development Manager) to better reflect the duties and expectations of the position, with no impact to salary range, benefits, or bargaining unit representation.

Historically, this type of change can happen when the level of duties and responsibilities have not substantially changed to justify a change in pay, but the position may have evolved so that the current title no longer reflects the basic function or nature of work of the position.

Currently, the job description states that the job duties include highly responsible management which involves technical and analytical work within the department and serves as a liaison for the City at meetings and conferences with citizens, the media, community organizations, advisory boards, cities, etc. The job duties also require significant project management duties and responsibilities where the Economic Development Manager title would more accurately reflect the duties performed.

Consider Resolution approving revisions to Master Salary Schedule relating to Economic Development Manager
August 15, 2022
August 15, 2022 Council Packet 81
The City Manager has met with the Miscellaneous Mid-Management Bargaining Unit to consult on the proposed changes and received no concerns or feedback in opposition of the change.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council adopt resolution approving the revised Master Salary Schedule reflecting the title change for Administrative Analyst (Economic Development Analyst) to Management Analyst (Economic Development Manager).
