Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
75 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) P. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the total OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense have been determined by an independent actuary (Note 10). For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. The General Fund and Internal Service Funds are typically used to liquidate the OPEB liability related to the City's governmental activities while the OPEB liability for Business-type activities is liquidated from the respective Enterprise Funds.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the reported results must pertain to liability and fiduciary net position information within certain defined timeframes. For this report, the following timeframes are used:

Valuation date June 30, 2023
Measurement date June 30, 2024
Measurement period July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024
Q. Net Position
In the Government-Wide Financial Statements and the Proprietary Fund Financial Statements, Net Position are classified in the following categories:

Net Investment in Capital Assets - This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, reduced by outstanding balances of debt and deferred gain on refinancing that are attributed to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.

Restricted - This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to those assets.

Unrestricted - This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.

R. Fund Balances
In the Governmental Fund Financial Statements fund balances are classified in the following categories:

Nonspendable - Items that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, such as prepaid items and inventories, items that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, such as principal of an endowment or revolving loan funds.

Restricted - Restricted fund balances encompass the portion of net resources subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions. This includes externally restrictions by creditors, such as through debt covenants, grantors, contributors, laws or regulations of other governments, as well as restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

Committed - Committed fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources, the use of which is constrained by limitations that the government imposes upon itself (resolution or ordinance) at its highest level of decision making, normally the governing body and that remain binding unless removed in the same manner.

The City Council is considered the highest authority for the City.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
76 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) R. Fund Balances (Continued)
Assigned - Assigned fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources reflecting the government’s intended use of resources. Assignment of resources can be done by the highest level of decision making or by a committee or official designated for that purpose. The City Council has authorized the City Manager and the Director of Finance for that purpose. The City Council may also assign fund balance, however, unlike commitments, assignments generally only exist temporarily, and additional action does not normally have to be taken for the removal of an assignment.

Unassigned - These are either residual positive net resources of the General Fund in excess of what can properly be classified in one of the other categories, or negative balances in all other funds.

S. Spending Policy
In the Government-Wide Financial Statements and the Proprietary Fund Financial Statements, when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted Net Position are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted Net Position first.

In the Governmental Fund Financial Statements, when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which all restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balances are available, the City’s policy is to apply in the following order, except for instances wherein an ordinance specifies the fund balance:
 Restricted
 Committed
 Assigned
 Unassigned
T. Property Taxes
In 1978, a State constitutional amendment (Article XIIIA) provided that the ad valorem real property tax rate be limited to 1% of market value and be levied only by the county and shared with all other jurisdictions. The County of Kern collects the property taxes and distributes them to taxing jurisdictions on the basis of the taxing jurisdictions’ assessed valuation, subject to adjustments for voter-approved debt. Property taxes are formally due on November 1 and February 1 and become delinquent as of December 10 and April 10, respectively. Taxes become a lien on the property effective March 1 of the preceding year.

U. Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. In addition, estimates affect the reported amount of expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

77 Note 1 – Reporting Entity and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) V. Implementation of New GASB Pronouncements for the Year Ended June 30, 2025 The requirements of the following accounting standards are effective for the purpose of implementation, if applicable to the City, for the year ended June 30, 2025. The financial statements included herein apply the requirements and provisions of these statements, including necessary retroactive adjustments to financial statement classifications and presentations.

GASB Statement No. 101 – In June 2022, GASB issued Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by updating the recognition and measurement guidance for compensated absences. That objective is achieved by aligning the recognition and measurement guidance under a unified model and by amending certain previously required disclosures. Implementation of this Statement had a significant effect on the City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. See Note 19.

GASB Statement No. 102 – In December 2023, GASB issued Statement No. 102, Certain Risk Disclosures.

This Statement requires a government to assess whether a concentration or constraint makes the primary government reporting unit or other reporting units that report a liability for revenue debt vulnerable to the risk of a substantial impact. Additionally, this Statement requires a government to assess whether an event or events associated with a concentration or constraint that could cause the substantial impact have occurred, have begun to occur, or are more likely than not to begin to occur within 12 months of the date the financial statements are issued. Implementation of this Statement did not have a significant effect on the City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

W. Upcoming Government Accounting Standards Implementations The City is currently analyzing its accounting practices to determine the potential impact on the financial statements for the following GASB statements:

GASB Statement No. 103 – In April 2024, GASB issued Statement No. 103, Financial Reporting Model Improvements. The objective of this Statement is to improve key components of the financial reporting model to enhance its effectiveness in providing information that is essential for decision making and assessing a government’s accountability. Application of this statement is effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

GASB Statement No. 104 – In September 2024, GASB issued Statement No. 104, Disclosure of Certain Capital Assets. This Statement requires certain types of capital assets to be disclosed separately in the capital assets note disclosures required by Statement 34. Lease assets recognized in accordance with Statement No. 87, Leases, and intangible right-to-use assets recognized in accordance with Statement No. 94, Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements, should be disclosed separately by major class of underlying asset in the capital assets note disclosures. Subscription assets recognized in accordance with Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information Technology Arrangements, also should be separately disclosed. In addition, this Statement requires intangible assets other than those three types to be disclosed separately by major class. Application of this statement is effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.

GASB Statement No. 105 – In December 2025, GASB issued Statement No. 105, Subsequent Events. This Statement establishes accounting and financial reporting requirements for events and transactions that occur after the financial statement date but before financial statements are issued. The Statement defines the types of subsequent events and requires disclosure of certain nonrecognized subsequent events. Application of this Statement is effective for the City’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2027.

78 Note 2 – Cash and Investments
Cash and investments are presented in the accompanying financial statements at June 30, 2025 as follows:

Fiduciary Funds
Governmental Business-Type Statement of
Activities Activities Total Net Position Total
Cash and investments 156,402,396 $ 3,492,020 $ 159,894,416 $ 1,068,800 $ 160,963,216 $ Cash and investments with fiscal agent - - - 555 555
Total cash and investments $ 3,492,020 156,402,396 $ 159,894,416 $ 1,069,355 $ 160,963,771 $ Government-Wide Statement of Net Position
Cash and investments consisted of the following at June 30, 2025:

Cash:

Cash on hand 5,759 $
Deposits with financial institution 25,649,242
Total cash 25,655,001
Investments:

Investments 135,308,215
Investments held by bond trustee 555
Total investments 135,308,770
Total cash and investments $ 160,963,771
A. Demand Deposits
The carrying amounts of the City’s demand deposits were $25,649,242 at June 30, 2025. Bank balances were $28,123,292 at that date, the total amount of which was collateralized or insured with securities held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name as discussed below.

The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City's name.

The fair value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City's cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City’s deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits, which are fully insured up to $250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The City, however, has not waived the collateralization requirements.

The City follows the practice of pooling cash and investments of all funds, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures. Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances. Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.

C. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)
Debt and equity securities classified in Level 1 are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities.

Debt and equity securities classified in Level 2 are valued using the following approaches:
• U.S. Treasuries, U.S. Agencies, and Commercial Paper: quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active;
• Medium term notes: quoted prices for similar securities in active markets; and • Asset-backed securities: recent appraisals of the asset value.

D. Risk Disclosure
Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.

Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. One of the ways that the City manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer-term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations. Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the City's investments (including investments held by fiscal agent) to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the City's investments by maturity:

Investment Type Total 1 year or less 1-3 years 3-5 years Local Agency Investment Funds $ 2,438,956 $ 2,438,956 $ - $ - California CLASS 15,409,740 15,409,740 - -

D. Risk Disclosure (Continued)
Disclosures Relating to Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City’s investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits:

The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The fair value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits. At June 30, 2025, the City’s deposits (bank balances) were collateralized under California Law.

Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Presented below is the minimum rating required by the California Government Code, the City's investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual Moody’s rating as of year-end for each investment type.

California CLASS is a pooled investment option that was created via a joint exercise of powers agreement by and among California public agencies. California CLASS provides California public agencies with a convenience method for investing in high-liquid, short to medium term securities. Deposits and withdrawals to and from California CLASS are transferred on the basis of $1 and not fair value. Accordingly, under the fair value hierarchy, California CLASS is valued based on inputs not categorized as level 1, level 2 or level 3. As of June 30, 2025, the City had $15,409,740 invested in the California CLASS.

F. Investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a participant in LAIF which is regulated by California Government Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. As of June 30, 2025, the City had $2,438,956 invested in LAIF.

LAIF determines fair value on its investment portfolio based on market quotations for those securities where market quotations are readily available and based on amortized cost or best estimate for those securities where market value is not readily available. LAIF is reported at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in either the City’s Miscellaneous Employee Pension Plan (Miscellaneous Plan) or Safety Employee Pension Plan (Safety Plan), both of which are cost-sharing multiple employer defined benefit pension plans administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). Benefit provisions under the Plans are established by State statute and City resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plans regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS website.

CalPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full-time employment. Members of the Miscellaneous Plan and Safety Plan with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after 10 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for the plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees’ Retirement Law.

Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for the Plan are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.

For the year ended June 30, 2025, the contributions made to the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans were $964,450 and $646,473, respectively.

Discount Rate
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account, both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using historical returns of all the funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using a building-block approach.

Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent.

The table below reflects long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These geometric rates of return are net of administrative expenses.

2 Figures are based on the 2021 Asset Liability Management Study The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.90% for the plan. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate.

Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 6.90% discount rate is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long term expected discount rate of 6.90% is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF). The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained from the CalPERS website under the GASB 68 Section.

Plan Description
The City provides postemployment health benefits through a single-employer defined benefit plan administered by the City. Employees of the Miscellaneous bargaining group and other non-represented employees, who retire from the City with ten years or more of contiguous City service, are eligible for a Post-Retirement Health Benefit for themselves and spouse or child or children. This benefit is finite in nature and provides for the cost of benefits for one year only. This cost is computed at the rate of the current health care premiums and the current dental premiums, in place at the time of retirement.

Eligibility
Employees of the City are eligible for retiree health benefits if they retire within 120 days of their separation date.

Membership in the plan consisted of the following at June 30, 2018, the date of the latest actuarial valuation:

Active employees 84
Retirees 2
Total 86
Contributions
The obligation of the City to contribute to the plan is established and may be amended by the Board of Directors.

The Board of Directors has established a policy of funding the actuarially determined contribution (ADC) on a pay as you go basis. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the City’s average contribution rate was 0.33 % of coveredemployee payroll. Employees are not required to contribute to the plan.

The expected average remaining service life is 12.6 years, which was determined as of July 1, 2018, the beginning of the measurement period, for employees covered by the OPEB plan benefit terms as of the valuation date.

Note 11 – Risk Management and Self-Insurance
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; and natural disasters for which the City obtains insurance coverage.

Public entity risk pools are formally organized and separate entities established under the Joint Exercise of Powers Act of the State of California. As separate legal entities, those entities exercise full powers and authorities within the scope of the related Joint Powers Agreements including the preparation of annual budgets, accountability for all funds, the power to make and execute contracts and the right to sue and be sued. Each risk pool is governed by a board consisting of representatives from member municipalities. Each board controls the operations of the respective risk pool, including selection of management and approval of operating budgets, independent of any influences by member municipalities beyond their representation of that board. Obligations and liabilities of these risk pools are not the City's responsibility.

Note 11 – Risk Management and Self-Insurance (Continued) Since 1986, the City has joined together with other cities to form a public entity risk pool known as the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority - CSJVRMA (the “Authority”), a joint powers authority established in accordance with the California government code. The relationship between the City and the Authority is such that the Authority is not a component unit of the City for financial reporting purposes. Financial statements for the Authority may be obtained from the Authority's management.

The Authority is currently operating as a common risk management and insurance program for 53 member cities. The program's general objectives are to formulate, develop, and administer, on the behalf of the member cities, a program of insurance, to obtain lower cost for that coverage, and to develop a comprehensive loss control program. A member may withdraw from the Authority only by giving six-month notice. Cities applying for membership in the Authority may do so on approval of a two-thirds vote of the board of the Authority.

The latest financial information of the Authority for fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, is as follows:

Total assets $ 179,635,612
Total liabilities $ 144,400,470
Net position $ 35,235,142
Operating revenues $ 89,306,501
Operating expenses $ 94,324,180
Nonoperating revenues (expenses) $ 6,290,415
Change in net position $ 1,272,736
A. Coverage
The City participates in the Central San Joaquin Valley Risk Management Authority (CSJVRMA), a public entity risk pool currently operating as a common risk management and insurance program for 53 cities. The purpose of CSJVRMA is to spread the adverse effect of losses among the members and to purchase excess insurance as a group, thereby reducing its expense. The CSJVRMA is governed by a Board of Directors elected by the member agencies; it is not a component unit of the City. Audited financial statements are available from the Central San Joaquin Risk Management Authority at 1750 Creekside Oaks Drive, Suite 200, Sacramento, CA 95833.

The City is covered for the first $1,000,000 of each general liability claim and $250,000 of each workers’ compensation claim through the CSJVRMA. The City has the right to receive dividends or the obligation to pay assessments based on an estimated claims liabilities formula which, among other expenses, includes reported and incurred but not reported (IBNR) claims, and charges the City’s account for liability losses under $25,000 and workers’ compensation losses under $50,000.

The CSJVRMA participates in an excess pool which provides general liability coverage from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000 and workers’ compensation coverage from $250,000 to the statutory limit. The City has had no settlements which exceeded insurance coverage in the last ten fiscal years, and no changes in insurance coverage from the prior year. The City’s deductible amount is included with the premiums.

The CSJVRMA maintains separate records for each member for each year of participation. The records track cash paid to the CSJVRMA through deposit premium assessments, the City’s self-insured retention portion of claims paid, and the City’s allocation of shared risks. Three years after the close of the workers’ compensation coverage year and five years after the close of the general liability coverage year, the CSJVRMA assesses the status of all members for the year, then either makes a refund to a member if it has positive balance (i.e., payout and reserve experience is less than premiums paid) or collects any deficit.

Note 14 ‒ Adjustments and Restatements of Beginning Balances Due to a decrease in the amount of fees being received, the City determined that the Refuse Services Enterprise Fund no longer meets the quantitative criteria for major governmental fund reporting. Accordingly, beginning in the current fiscal year, the Refuse Services Enterprise Fund are reported as nonmajor enterprise funds. The effect of this change in fund classification is presented in the column titled “Adjustment –Major to nonmajor fund” in the following table.

During the current year, the City implemented GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. In addition to the value of unused vacation time owed to employees upon separation of employment, the City now recognizes an estimated amount of sick leave earned as of year-end that will be used by employees as time off in future years as part of the liability for compensated absences. The effects of the change in accounting principle are summarized below in the “Restatement - GASB 101 implementation” column in the following table.

During the current fiscal year, during the current fiscal year we identified an error in the recording of revenue in prior periods. The correction of this error resulted in a restatement of beginning fund balance and net position as of July 1, 2024. The effects of the error correction are summarized below in the “Error Correction - TDA Revenue Correction” column in the following table.

A. Litigation
There are various claims and legal actions pending against the City for which no provision has been made in the accompanying general purpose financial statements. In the opinion of the City attorney and City management, liabilities arising from these claims and legal actions, if any, will not have an adverse material effect on the financial position of the City.

B. Grants
The City has received Federal grants for specific purposes that are subject to review and audit by the Federal government. Although such audits could result in expenditure disallowance under grant terms, and any required reimbursements are not expected to be material.

Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)
C. State Board of Equalization Local Sales Tax Allocation Petitions In 2010, a petition was filled with the State Board of Equalization challenging the 1% local sales tax allocation for a large Shafter based retailer going back to the fourth quarter of 2009. This petition is ongoing and will most likely not be resolved for several years. In the meantime, the City is continuing to receive the local sales tax revenue from this retailer. Although management and the City’s attorney believe the City has a strong case, the City has assigned $24,397,371 of General Fund Balance as a loss contingency reserve in case of an adverse outcome.

D. Contractual Commitments
The City has capital contractual commitments for which funds have been encumbered as of June 30, 2025.

Encumbrances related to capital projects are funded through the current year appropriated budget, which carries over to the following year.

The following contractual construction commitments existed at June 30, 2025:

1. Budgetary Information
Budgetary Policy and Control
The City Council adopts an annual budget, submitted by the City Manager prior to the beginning of the new fiscal year. Public hearings are conducted prior to its adoption by the City Council. All appropriations lapse at year-end with the exception of capital improvement budgets which lapse when exhausted or within three years if not reappropriated. The City Council has the legal authority to amend the budget at any time during the fiscal year. The City Manager has the authority to make adjustments to the operating budget within a fund. Transfers of operating budgets between funds or from appropriated reserve accounts, use of unappropriated fund balances, cancellation of appropriation and all changes in capital improvement project budgets require the approval of the City Council.

Supplemental appropriations during the fiscal year were not material.

The annual budget is prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. It is adopted for all governmental type funds, except for Debt Service Funds. The Police Services Fund, Housing and Community Development Fund, Lighting and Landscaping District and MCCF Building and Equipment Replacement Funds did not adopt a budget for year ended June 30, 2025.

The City maintains budgetary controls to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The level of budgetary control (that is, the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated amount) for the operating budget is at the fund level.

In 1978, California voters passed Proposition 13 which sets the property tax rate at a 1.00% fixed amount. This 1.00% is shared by all taxing agencies for which the subject property resides within. In addition to the 1.00% fixed amount, property owners are charged taxes as a percentage of assessed property values for the payment of the Example Unified School District bonds.

MANAGEMENT REPORT

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: February 3, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Carol Chavolla, HR Director
SUBJECT: FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE CITY MANAGER EMPLOYMENT

AGREEMENT APPROVAL

RECOMMENDATION
Council find action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines; approve the First Amendment to the City Manager Employment Agreement with Lance Lippincott.

BACKGROUND
On August 27, 2024, the City Council appointed Lance Lippincott as the City Manager and approved an employment agreement setting forth the terms of that engagement.

The employment agreement requires the City Council to conduct annual performance evaluations. Following completion of the most recent evaluation, the City Council determined that the City Manager’s performance frequently exceeds performance expectations. Based on the City Manager’s performance and to address salary compaction between the City Manager and executive-level staff, the City Council directed that the City Manager’s Employment Agreement be amended to update the salary provisions as follows:
“City agrees to pay City Manager, and City Manager agrees to accept from City, as compensation for services rendered by City Manager pursuant to this Agreement, an annual base salary, commencing on the Effective Date, in the amount of Two Hundred Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($235,000.00) (hereinafter "Annual Base Salary"), payable in installment payments in the same manner and at the same times as salaries of other executive managers of the City are paid." All other terms of the current employment agreement remain unchanged.

Effective January 1, 2017, California Government Code Section 54953 (c)(3) requires the City Council to orally report in open session a summary of the salary, salary schedules, and compensation in the form of fringe benefits for local agency executives, before the City Council may take final action on such compensation. This report and the oral presentation that is provided will satisfy those requirements.

FISCAL IMPACT

Page 415 of 427 ends

FIRST AMENDMENT OF THE CITY MANAGER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT APPROVAL - 2 -
The base salary fiscal impact is $25,000 annually. The total compensation fiscal impact, inclusive of applicable benefits, is approximately $30,185 annually. The fiscal impact can be absorbed within the approved Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Annual Operating Budget. A budget amendment is not required.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is approval of the first amendment to the City Manager employment agreement and therefore, it is organizational and administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment and not subject to CEQA.

MANAGEMENT REPORT

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: February 3, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Michael James, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: SALES TAX INITIATIVE PUBLIC OUTREACH AND

ENGAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act; authorize the City Manager to execute a professional services agreement with CiviSocial for communications training and engagement services in an amount not to exceed $20,000; and authorize the City Manager to execute a separate professional services agreement with Polco for digital engagement platform services in an amount not to exceed $10,000.

BACKGROUND
In support of the City Council’s ongoing priority to enhance public transparency, civic engagement, and community trust, the City of Shafter seeks to strengthen its communications and public engagement capacity in advance of a potential local sales tax measure that could be considered for the November 2026 ballot. Like many growing communities, Shafter faces increasing demands related to public safety, infrastructure, and community services, while traditional revenue sources have become more constrained. These conditions have prompted the City to explore improved methods of communicating fiscal realities and engaging residents in informed dialogue regarding future funding options.

To support this effort, Staff recommends entering into separate professional services agreements with CiviSocial and Polco, two firms with complementary areas of expertise. Together, these firms would implement a coordinated public outreach and engagement program designed to build internal communications capacity while establishing a structured, accessible platform for ongoing resident input. A formal request for proposals was not conducted, as professional services agreements of this scope do not trigger the City’s competitive procurement requirements.

CiviSocial specializes in hands-on communications strategy, social media storytelling, and staff training for public-sector organizations. Their proposed scope includes preparatory work followed by five days of on-site engagement in Shafter, during which they would work directly with City staff, stakeholders, and community members. The engagement is intended to develop a unified communications voice, improve digital storytelling practices, and train internal staff to serve as content creators who can

SALES TAX INITIATIVE PUBLIC OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

AGREEMENT
- 2 -
maintain consistent, authentic public messaging related to City services, budget realities, and community priorities.

Polco provides a digital engagement platform that allows local governments to gather structured, data-driven community feedback through surveys, polls, and interactive tools. The platform supports ongoing engagement with verified resident panels, realtime sentiment tracking, and transparent sharing of engagement results. Polco’s services would provide the City with a reliable mechanism to test messaging, measure community priorities, and maintain continuous two-way communication with residents.

This item was previously scheduled for City Council consideration in December 2025 but was pulled from the agenda prior to discussion to allow the City Council and staff to step back and conduct a broader, policy-level discussion regarding a potential local sales tax and the City’s long-term revenue needs before proceeding with community engagement. Following that action, the City Council held a public workshop at a special meeting on January 20, 2026, to initiate a transparent, conceptual discussion regarding a potential local sales tax measure and related revenue considerations. No formal action was taken at that meeting.

Following the Council’s policy-level discussion at the January 20, 2026 public workshop, Staff is returning to the City Council for consideration of the proposed professional services agreements as an initial step toward building internal communications capacity and establishing a framework for future community engagement, should the Council choose to move forward.

Upon execution of the proposed agreements, services would commence promptly to ensure sufficient time for staff training and preparation in advance of any future Council consideration of a revenue measure.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the proposed professional services agreements is not to exceed $30,000. This includes $20,000 for communications training and engagement services provided by CiviSocial and $10,000 for digital engagement platform services provided by Polco. Sufficient funds are available within existing operational budgets to cover these costs, and no additional Council budget action is required.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act pursuant to Section 15262 of the CEQA Guidelines, as it involves only feasibility and planning studies for possible future actions that have not been approved, adopted, or funded.

1. Executive Summary
This proposal combines the complementary strengths of two companies: CiviSocial’s onsite communications and storytelling strategy with Polco’s Engage platform to help Shafter build/deepen modern communications, clarity, and community engagement and alignment.

CiviSocial will lead a 5-day in-person engagement focused on elevating Shafter’s community relations through modern, authentic social media storytelling. This includes defining the City’s voice, strengthening its digital presence, and equipping staW with a repeatable workflow that captures the stories, services, and successes that matter most to residents. Through stakeholder collaboration, hands-on training, and real-world content development, Shafter will leave with a stronger, more confident communications strategy built on transparency, human connection, and consistent outreach.

Page 421 of 427 ends

To reinforce and extend this work, Shafter will also receive one year of access to Polco’s Engage platform, providing a structured, data-driven foundation for ongoing public participation. Through Engagement Pages, Quick Polls, the Prioritize Tool, and several benchmarking datasets, the City can gather feedback, test messaging, measure sentiment, and keep residents continuously informed.

Together, this combined approach ensures that communications are not only compelling but also grounded in real community input and informed by clear, measurable signals.

2. Scope of Services

One-Year Access to the Engage Platform Includes:

1. Engage Module: A suite of digital tools designed to extend public participation beyond a single survey and support ongoing, meaningful engagement.

3. Quick Polls: Lightweight, real-time polling tools to capture feedback on emerging issues or follow-up questions as the conversation evolves.

4. Prioritize Tool: Interactive ranking tool that asks residents to weigh values, priorities, or scenarios (such as balancing preservation with development) providing structured input on complex trade-oWs.

5. Resident Subscriber Base / Panel: A growing, verified list of residents who opt in to receive updates and participate in future activities, forming an always-available digital focus group.

B) CiviSocial Program

1. The CiviSocial engagement will include +/- 2-weeks of preparatory pre-engagement work including deep data evaluation (both Polco generated and pre-existing work); an all-staW survey to identify ideal social media training candidates; a kick-oW meeting with the City Manager and Communications team; and other fact-finding activities surrounding the City’s current communications strengths, weaknesses, and overall strategy on social media.

2. This will be followed by 5-days of in-person, hands-on engagement in Shafter which includes:

The City Council has previously authorized the release of a Request for Qualifications and Proposals (RFQP) to evaluate and plan for the long-term repurposing of the former Modified Community Correctional Facility (MCCF) as a modern municipal facility. The primary long-term goal is to relocate the Shafter Police Department to the MCCF site, while also accommodating permanent space for the Information Technology (IT) Department and other civic functions.

In the interim, the City has identified a need to temporarily relocate IT Department staff, who are currently working out of the Public Works Corporation Yard. The administrative office portion of the MCCF offers an opportunity to meet this short-term need. A proposed capital improvement project would fund a temporary remodel of this space to allow for its use by the IT Department. This work is independent of, but complementary to, the long-term planning effort underway through the RFQP process. The temporary remodel is intended to be limited in scope, focused on essential improvements to allow safe and functional occupancy, without foreclosing future options being studied under the design-build planning effort. In addition to supporting the IT Department, the remodeled space may also accommodate other City staff from City Hall, if needed.

DEPARTMENT
- 2 -
To support the temporary remodel of the administrative office space at the former Modified Community Correctional Facility, a new capital improvement program budget in the amount of $200,000 is proposed. Preliminary quotes have been obtained for the major work components, which total approximately $159,500, including:
• HVAC updates and repairs – $22,500
• Interior painting – $15,000
• Flooring – $12,000
• Interior lighting updates – $10,000
• Office furniture – $25,000
• Roof repairs – $75,000
The remaining balance of approximately $40,500 is intended to serve as contingency to address unanticipated conditions, procurement variability, or minor scope adjustments.

Individual work items will be procured in accordance with the City's bidding and procurement policies, using informal bid procedures as applicable.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities) of the CEQA Guidelines because it is the repair and minor alteration of the former Modified Community Correctional Facility that includes HVAC updates and repairs, interior painting, new flooring, interior lighting updates, new office furniture, and roof repairs that involve no expansion of the existing or former use.
