City of Shafter, CA
YTD Budget Update as of 06/08/2026
Welcome to the City’s Budget Status Report, prepared by the Finance Department to deliver a transparent and detailed update on current budget performance. This report, presented on a monthly or quarterly basis, is crafted to inform the City Council and our valued citizens about the current state of the City’s finances. It compares the revised budget to year-to-date (YTD) actuals, providing a clear picture of our progress against the financial plan.

For additional context, we include YTD figures from the prior year for the same period, along with variance explanations to highlight key diƯerences and trends.

To oƯer a longer-term view, this report includes a six-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR), illustrating the City’s financial trajectory over time. The report covers a comprehensive range of areas, including citywide operations, the General Fund, Enterprise Funds, Internal Service Funds, Special Revenue Funds, Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and Capital Expenditures (CAPEX). Throughout, you’ll find tables, charts, and detailed analysis to enhance understanding and support informed decision-making. Please note that the results presented are subject to change during year-end adjustments, which may include interest income allocation, interfund charges, year-end accruals, and other refinements. Our aim is to provide an accessible, data-driven overview that underscores our commitment to fiscal responsibility and accountability.

Financial Analysis Approach
Analyzing financial data at a citywide level is both impractical and irrelevant due to the diƯering accounting practices among various entities, such as full accrual versus modified accrual. Combining governmental and enterprise funds makes it unfeasible to accurately summarize financial results.

Additionally, interfund charges may be duplicated when consolidating information, leading to potential misrepresentation. Therefore, financial data is best analyzed at the individual fund level. Later in this report, more detailed insights are provided into the General Fund, Water, Sewer, Refuse, and other specific funds.

Why Include Citywide Data?
If citywide analysis has limitations, why present it? Despite its challenges, a broad financial overview provides key insights. For example, understanding total labor costs and their trends can be valuable. It also helps assess labor costs as a percentage of overall operating expenses and evaluates the impact of utilities, such as power, on city operations. While this perspective oƯers useful context, the primary focus of this report remains on individual funds, where a more detailed financial analysis is provided.

Note: Citywide data applies only to the city's operational funds and excludes fiduciary and agency funds.

Citywide Budget Comparison
The table below compares the citywide revised budget for operating expenses against current year-to-date (YTD) actuals. For context, YTD actuals from the same period last year are also included, along with year-over-year (YoY) changes. Additionally, a six-year Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is provided to highlight long-term trends. Red values within the CAGR indicate areas of high expense growth, which may signal financial concerns. These increases could be attributed to personnel expansion, service level adjustments, or inflationary pressures over the past few years.

The largest operating expense category is labor cost which represents of the total operating expenses.

The General Fund budget and financial information are subject to changes throughout the year as authorized by the City Council. Actual amounts are also subject to audits and year-end adjustments, including accruals, allocations, internal charges, and transfers.

The following table presents General Fund operating revenues and expenditures, excluding capital expenditures and CIP. This distinction is made because operating expenses are ongoing, whereas capital expenditures are typically one-time purchases that can be more easily controlled during periods of fiscal distress.

This table provides an overview of the General Fund, highlighting that approximately 90% of operating revenues come from taxes. On the expenditure side, labor costs represent the largest category. The summary table compares the budget to YTD actuals and prior-year figures while also including a sixyear Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) to illustrate long-term trends.

The Water Fund is part of the city's Enterprise Funds, which operate like a business within the government. This means the water system is funded by the money it generates—mainly from water bills paid by residents and businesses—rather than taxes. These funds cover the costs of maintaining and improving the water infrastructure, including pipelines, pumps, and treatment facilities, ensuring a safe and reliable water supply for the community.

The Refuse Fund is part of the city's Enterprise Funds, which means it is funded by fees paid by residents and businesses for trash collection and waste disposal services, rather than tax dollars. However, refuse operations within the City Core area are now outsourced to American Refuse, while services in the Gossamer Grove area are handled by Varner Brothers. These service providers are responsible for collecting and disposing of waste eƯiciently, ensuring a clean and well-maintained community.

The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a long-term plan that outlines major infrastructure projects a city or government plans to complete over several years. These projects include things like road repairs, new parks, public buildings, and water system upgrades. The CIP helps prioritize and budget for these big projects, ensuring the community's needs are met while managing financial resources wisely. It typically spans multiple years and is updated regularly to reflect changing priorities and funding availability.

The City of Shafter has maintained a general fund surplus in recent years, contributing to one of the healthiest reserve levels in the region. The City Council adopted the current budget as a balanced budget, ensuring fiscal responsibility. While we are now experiencing a sharp decline in sales tax revenue, projections indicate that we will still conclude the fiscal year with a surplus. This year-to-date budget update provides valuable insight into the City's financial status. For any questions or further clarification, the Finance Director is available for discussion.

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Rogelio Sanchez, Finance Director
SUBJECT: APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027

CONSISTENT WITH ARTICLE XIIIB OF THE CALIFORNIA

CONSTITUTION AND SELECTING THE ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT

FACTORS

RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines; and adopt Resolution 3086, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Shafter Setting Forth an Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Consistent with Article XIII B of the California Constitution and Selecting the Annual Adjustment Factors.

BACKGROUND
Under the Gann Spending-Limitation Initiative (Article XIII B of the State Constitution) adopted as Proposition 4 in June 1979 (and subsequently modified by Proposition 111 in June 1990), the City is required to annually adopt a resolution setting an appropriations limit for the upcoming fiscal year. For 2026/27, the City’s appropriations subject to limitation are about $29.45 million, which is far less than the calculated limit of $564.47 million.

Background and Key Concepts
The Gann Spending-Limitation Initiative provides for the limitation of state and local government appropriations. As discussed in the following summary of the major provisions of the Gann Initiative and Proposition 111 modifications, the Gann Initiative is actually a limitation on tax revenues rather than a direct limitation on appropriations.

1. Appropriations subject to limitation may not exceed appropriations made in 1978-79 except as adjusted for increases in the cost of living, population and service responsibility transfers.

2. Appropriations financed through service fees (to the degree that they do not exceed the cost of performing the service), grant programs, fines and forfeitures, and other specified “non-tax” sources are not subject to the appropriations limit. Additionally, appropriations for long-term indebtedness incurred prior to 1978-79, debt service on qualified capital outlays beginning in 1990-91, qualified capital outlays in excess of $100,000 and increased costs as a result of federally mandated programs, are also

Page 178 of 1070 ends

APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026-2027 CONSISTENT WITH ARTICLE XIIIB

OF THE CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION AND SELECTING THE ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT FACTORS - 2 -
excluded from the limit. Essentially, with the exception of major capital-related expenditures, only appropriations funded through tax revenues are subject to limitation.

3. For the purpose of identifying “proceeds from taxes” under the Gann Initiative, state subventions that are unrestricted as to their use are considered to be tax sources. On the other hand, the use of subventions like gas tax and transportation development act funds is restricted by the State, and as such, is classified as non-tax sources.

4. Under the original Gann Initiative, all proceeds from taxes received in excess of the appropriations limit were required to be returned through refunds or revisions in tax rates and fee schedules within the next two fiscal years; or voter approval to increase the appropriations limit was required. Proposition 111 provides a one-year carryover feature to determine excess revenues under which refunds can be avoided if, in the subsequent year, the City is below the limit by the amount of the prior year's excess.

Any voter-approved increase to the appropriations limit cannot exceed four years.

5. Originally, the Gann Initiative was self-executing, requiring no formal review; however, Proposition 111 requires that the annual calculation be reviewed as part of the annual financial audit.

6. Major concepts in implementing the Gann Initiative as modified by Proposition 111 include: appropriations funded through tax sources are subject to the limit, not actual expenditures; and any excess of actual tax revenues over the appropriations limit, not actual expenditures or appropriations, are subject to a refund.

ANALYSIS
The annual adjustment factors for changes in population and cost of living for the appropriations limit calculation must be selected by a recorded vote of the Council, and include the following:

1. Population. Based on data provided annually by the State Department of Finance, cities may annually choose either the growth in their city’s or the county’s population.

For this year’s calculation, the City’s population growth factor of 5.23% (which exceeded the County's factor of 0.10%) is the recommended adjustment factor.

2. Cost of living. Local governments may annually choose either the percentage change in California per capita personal income or the percentage change in their jurisdiction's assessed valuation that is attributable to non-residential new construction. For this year’s calculation, due to delays in obtaining the assessed valuations from the Kern County Assessor's Office, the percentage change in California per capita personal income is the recommended adjustment factor at 4.95%.

The City’s appropriation limit for 2026/27 is $564,474,028 calculated as follows:

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is the approval of the appropriations limit for fiscal year 2026-2027 constant with the California Constitution and therefore, it is the creation of a governmental funding mechanism or other fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to a specific project that can result in a potentially significant impact and not subject to CEQA.

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Marco Martinez, City Attorney
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A DISRUPTION POLICY FOR

LEGISLATIVE MEETINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH SENATE BILL
(SB) 707 GUIDELINES

RECOMMENDATION
Council find that the action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines; and adopt Resolution 3090, a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Shafter Adopting a Disruption Policy for Meetings of the City Council, its Board & Commissions in Accordance with Senate Bill 707 Guidelines.

BACKGROUND
On October 3, 2025, Governor Newsom signed into law Senate Bill 707 (SB 707), which amends the Brown Act with the intent to diversify and increase public engagement during local government meetings of legislative bodies, such as the City Council. Among the various new requirements under SB 707, all qualified legislative bodies must now offer hybrid meetings (through a two-way phone or video platform).

The City of Shafter has already been providing hybrid meetings via Zoom/YouTube for several years and will continue to do so in the future. However, SB 707 requires the City to formally adopt a policy that outlines procedures for how to restore any hybrid meeting broadcast disruptions that prevent the public from virtually attending and participating in a meeting. According to the legislation, that policy must be adopted before July 1, 2026.

The policy must address procedures for responding to disruptions of telephonic or internet service during a meeting and the efforts the legislative body will make to restore service. If a disruption occurs that prevents members of the public from observing or participating in a meeting through the required two-way telephonic or audiovisual platform, the City Council must recess the open session for at least one hour and make a good faith effort to restore service. During this time, the City Council may meet in closed session as otherwise permitted by law.

The City Council may not reconvene open session until at least one hour has passed or service has been restored, whichever occurs first. If service has not been restored upon reconvening, the City Council must make findings by roll call vote that good faith efforts were made to restore access and that the public interest in continuing the meeting

RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A DISRUPTION POLICY FOR LEGISLATIVE MEETINGS IN ACCORDANCE WITH SENATE BILL (SB) 707 GUIDELINES
- 2 -
outweighs the public interest in providing remote access. Alternatively, the meeting may be adjourned.

The proposed policy incorporates these requirements and establishes procedures to ensure transparency and continuity of meetings in the event of a technology disruption during a City Council meeting, while maintaining flexibility to respond based on specific circumstances.

Finally, it should be noted that SB 707also authorizes, but does not require, remote teleconference meetings by “eligible subsidiary bodies” such as the Planning Commission or other Council appointed Committees to also comply with these requirements. The attached Resolution makes the SB 707 Policy applicable to these bodies.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(2) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is the approval of a disruption policy for legislative meetings and therefore, it is considered general policy and procedure making and not subject to CEQA.

APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY
Yes

Policy: Disruption of Telephonic or Internet Service During Meetings

1. Background
Senate Bill 707 (2025) amended the Brown Act to require eligible legislative bodies to adopt, on or before July 1, 2026, a policy addressing how the agency will respond to disruptions in telephonic or internet service that prevent members of the public from participating remotely.

2. Purpose
This policy establishes procedures for responding to a disruption in the telephonic or internet services that provide two-way remote public access to meetings of the City Council of the City of Shafter and its Boards and Commissions, as required by the Brown Act (Government Code section 54953.4). The policy ensures transparency, public participation, and the continuation of meetings during technological disruptions.

3. Definitions
“Service Disruption” means any failure, outage, or other interruption to the agency’s remote access services that prevents members of the public from participating in a City Council, Board or Commission meeting through the remote access service. “Disrupting” means engaging in behavior during a meeting of the City Council, it Boards, Commissions that actually disrupts, disturbs, impedes, or renders infeasible the orderly conduct of the meeting and includes, but is not limited to one of the following:
a. A failure to comply with reasonable and lawful regulations adopted by the City Council of the City of Shafter
b. Engaging in behavior that constitutes use of force or a true threat of force. “Remote access services” means the two-way telephonic service and/or two-way audiovisual platform used to provide real-time remote public attendance and observation of meetings.
“Two-way audiovisual platform” means an online platform that provides participants with the ability to participate in a meeting via both an interactive video conference and a twoway telephonic service. “Two-way telephonic service” means a telephone service that does not require internet access and allows participants to dial a telephone number to listen and verbally participate.
“True threat of force” means a threat that has sufficient indicia of intent and seriousness, that a reasonable observer would perceive it to be an actual threat to use force by the person making the threat.

Page 195 of 1070 ends

434196.4

4. Applicability
This policy applies to all open and public meetings of the City Council and its Boards and Commissions at which remote public participation is required under the Brown Act.

Consistent with the Brown Act, this policy shall not apply to the following meetings:
a. Meetings held to attend a judicial or administrative proceeding to which the City of Shafter is a party.
b. Meetings held to inspect real or personal property provided that the topic of the meeting is limited to items directly related to the real or personal property. c.

Meetings held to meet in or nearby a facility owned by the City of Shafter, provided that the topic of the meeting is limited to items directly related to the facility.
e. Meetings held in an emergency situation pursuant to Government Code section 54956.5.

5. Remote Public Access Generally
When remote public access is required under the Brown Act, the City Council or its Boards, Commissions shall provide members of the public with an opportunity to attend and participate in the meeting using a two-way audiovisual platform or a two-way telephonic service, provided that adequate telephonic or internet service is operational at the meeting location.

If adequate telephonic or internet service is not operational at the meeting location, the City Council or its Board, Commissions shall not be required to provide remote access.

If adequate telephonic or internet service is operational for only a portion of the meeting, the City Council shall provide remote access during that portion of the meeting.

If a two-way audiovisual platform is used, the City Council or its Boards, Commissions shall:
a. Publicly post and provide a call-in option as well; and b. Activate any automatic captioning function that is available in the audiovisual platform.

If a two-way audiovisual platform is not provided, the City Council or its Boards, Commissions shall provide a two-way telephonic service.

Page 196 of 1070 ends

434196.4
Members of the public participating remotely shall be provided the same opportunity to provide public comment as members of the public attending in person, including the same time allotment.

6. Response to Service Disruption
If the Mayor, Presiding Officer or City Clerk becomes aware of a service disruption:
a. The Mayor, Presiding Officer or City Clerk shall immediately announce the service disruption to the public.
b. The Mayor or Presiding Officer shall call for a recess of the open session and may convene the legislative body in an authorized closed session, consistent with the Brown Act. The recess shall last for one hour or until service is restored, whichever is earlier.
c. During the recess, City of Shafter staff shall make a good faith effort to diagnose and restore the disrupted service.

7. Reconvening the Open Session
After the expiration of the hour, if service has not been restored, the Mayor, Presiding Officer or City Clerk shall report on the status of staff’s efforts to restore remote access services, and the City Council, Board or Commission may reconvene to:
a. Adjourn the meeting;
b. Extend the recess to allow staff more time to make a good faith effort to restore remote access services; or
c. Continue the open session portion of the meeting by adopting, by roll call vote, the following or a substantially similar finding:
“The City of Shafter has made good faith efforts to restore telephonic or internet service in accordance with its adopted policy, and the public interest in continuing the meeting outweighs the public interest in remote public access.” Upon adoption of the finding, the City Council, Board or Commission may continue the open session portion of the meeting despite the fact that remote access services have not been restored.

8. Recordkeeping
The City Clerk or Secretary shall enter a brief statement into the meeting minutes, including:
• The nature and time of the service disruption;

Page 197 of 1070 ends

434196.4
• The time the meeting was reconvened (if applicable);
• Any finding adopted pursuant to Section 7.

9. Response to Members of the Public Disrupting a Meeting If the Mayor, Presiding Officer or City Clerk becomes aware of a member of the public who is attending the meeting through remote access services and is disrupting the meeting or otherwise preventing other members of the public from attending or observing the meeting remotely or in-person:
a. The Mayor, Presiding Officer or City Clerk shall warn the person who is participating through remote access services that he or she is disrupting the meeting and his or her failure to cease that behavior may result in his or her removal.
b. If the person to whom the Mayor or Presiding Officer gave the above warning persists in disrupting the meeting, the Mayor or Presiding Officer shall order staff to:
i. mute or otherwise limit the individual’s ability to disrupt the meeting, while allowing the individual to continue to observe and attend the meeting; or ii. remove the individual from the meeting if paragraph (a) does not address the disrupting behavior or is not available using the remote access service.

10.Review and Updates
This policy may be amended by the City Council at a noticed public meeting in open session and may not be placed on the consent calendar.

MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: David Franz, Community Services Director
SUBJECT: CLEAN GREEN YARD MACHINES & TUNE IN & TUNE UP

SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT APPROVAL

RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(5) of the CEQA Guidelines; and approve the Special Event Permit for Valley Clean Air Now to host the Clean Green Yard Machines and Tune In & Tune Up event on June 27, 2026, at the City of Shafter Yard.

BACKGROUND
Valley Clean Air Now (Valley CAN) submitted a Special Event Permit application to host the Clean Green Yard Machines and Tune In & Tune Up event at the City of Shafter Yard. The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 27, 2026, from 6:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., with event setup on Friday, June 26, 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., and teardown on June 27, 2026, from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.

The event will provide eligible residents living within the Shafter AB 617 community boundaries an opportunity to exchange a gas-powered lawn mower for a new electric mower at no cost. Participants must sign up in advance and reserve their electric mower. Valley CAN will also provide information about its vehicle repair assistance program, which offers up to $500 in emissions-related vehicle repairs for eligible vehicles.

The application estimates a maximum of 400 people at one time. The event also requires alteration of public streets and rights-of-way, including the closure of East Ash Street and Golds Avenue from 5:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on June 27, 2026. Because the event anticipates more than 300 people at one time and includes alterations to public streets or public rights-of-way, City Council approval is required. The event is not expected to create in kind costs to the City.

FISCAL IMPACT
No direct fiscal impact is anticipated. Valley Clean Air Now will be responsible for organizing and conducting the event, including event setup, operations, and cleanup.

Based on the information provided, the event is not expected to require City

CLEAN GREEN YARD MACHINES & TUNE IN & TUNE UP SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT APPROVAL - 2 -
expenditures beyond normal administrative review and coordination.

Any City Staff support associated with permit processing, traffic control coordination, or public safety review is expected to be minimal and can be accommodated within existing departmental budgets. The applicant will be responsible for complying with all permit conditions and applicable requirements associated with the temporary street closures.

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 a special event permit for Valley Clean Air Now to host the Clean Green Yard Machines and Tune In & Tune Up event 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.

APPROVED BY THE CITY ATTORNEY

Thank you for choosing to host an event in the City of Shafter! Before you start, let’s make sure you need this permit. If your event will have fewer than 50 attendees, does not involve the sale of food and/or beverages, and will not require alterations to roads or public right-of-ways, you don’t need a Special Events Permit. Have a great event! However, if you expect more than 50 people, will sell food and/or beverages, have amplified sound, or alter roads or public right-of-ways, please fill out this form. This helps us coordinate resources, ensure public safety, and ensures you comply with the Shafter Municipal Code. We have tried to make it as painless as possible, and we are here to help! If you have any questions contact the Community Services Department at (661) 746-5019.

Here’s what you need to know:
 You will need to submit your completed application at least 30 days before the event*.  If you are planning a Community Event, submit your application at least 60 days before the event*.

A Community Event is an event with 1 or more food vendors that is of civic, political, public, or educational nature such as fairs, festivals, circuses and other public gathering events. *This allows you time to obtain all required permits and insurance, gives City staff time to review and approve your application, and, when necessary, provides enough time for City Council to review and approve the permit.
 An application fee of $25 is due after submittal and is non-refundable. (Other fees may apply.) A City staff member will contact you for payment.
 Events with more than 300 people at a time, that require alterations to the roads of public right-ofways, or will be serving alcohol require City Council approval.

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Brian Knox, Assistant Chief of Police, Randy Milligan, Police Chief, Lance Lippincott, City Manager
SUBJECT: GOSSAMER GROVE POLICE SUBSTATION OFFICE

FURNITURE PURCHASE APPROVAL

RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines; and approve the purchase of office furniture from Stinson’s for the Gossamer Grove Substation in the amount of $133,332.27.

BACKGROUND
The Gossamer Grove Substation was approved to support continued and growing public safety needs as well as additional quality of life issues. The substation is quickly nearing completion. In preparation for occupancy and operational use of the facility, office furniture is needed to furnish administrative and Staff workspaces within the substation building. The proposed purchase includes desks, chairs, workstations, conference room furnishings, storage units, and related office furnishings necessary for daily operations and staff occupancy.

The furniture purchase was procured through Stinson’s utilizing OMNIA Partners guaranteed government pricing, which provides competitively sourced cooperative purchasing opportunities for public agencies. Funding for the furniture purchase was included as part of the original budget for the Gossamer Grove Substation building project. Approval of the purchase will allow the facility to be fully equipped and operational for staff use.

FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost for the office furniture purchase is $133,332.27. The additional costs associated with the furniture purchase will be funded through the existing Police Department Substation Project (Project No. PD00001) budget.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is the approval to purchase office furniture for the Gossamer Grove police substation and therefore, it is the creation of a governmental funding mechanism

Page 214 of 1070 ends

GOSSAMER GROVE POLICE SUBSTATION OFFICE FURNITURE PURCHASE APPROVAL - 2 -
or other fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to a specific project that can result in a potentially significant impact and not subject to CEQA.

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Randy Milligan, Police Chief
SUBJECT: FINAL PHASE POLICE DEPARTMENT RADIO SYSTEM

IMPLEMENTATION AND CONTINGENCY FUNDING

RECOMMENDATION
Council find that the action is not defined as a “project” pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines; approve the final phase radio implementation, including installation of a Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) system and encryption integration services necessary to complete the Police Department radio communication system upgrade; authorize a not-to-exceed contingency allocation of $150,000 for project completion and unforeseen implementation costs; approve the associated budget adjustment necessary to complete the project.

BACKGROUND
On May 6, 2025, the City Council approved the upgrade and expansion of the Shafter Police Department’s radio communication system through Motorola Solutions to improve radio coverage, system reliability, and officer safety. The approved project expanded the Department’s existing single-site UHF analog conventional radio system into a two-site, two-channel UHF digital conventional voting system utilizing Motorola Solutions’ ASTRO 25 architecture. Improvements included upgrades at the Mt.

Pheasant communications site, installation of additional receivers at the 7th Standard site, microwave connectivity between sites, and associated system integration services.

As implementation of the project progressed, Motorola Solutions and AirWave Communications conducted additional system evaluations and determined that the original project scope did not include a Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) system for the Police Department facility. A BDA system amplifies and distributes radio signals within buildings where structural materials or building configuration may interfere with radio communications. Installation of a BDA system is necessary to eliminate areas of weak radio coverage within the Police Department facility and ensure reliable communication capabilities for officers and emergency personnel operating inside the building.

The BDA system is consistent with the original objectives of the radio system upgrade project, which were to improve communication reliability, operational effectiveness, and officer safety. While the upgraded radio infrastructure significantly improves field communications throughout the City, portions of the Police Department facility continue to experience signal degradation that may affect radio performance during emergency

operations.

Motorola Solutions serves as the primary vendor and system designer for the City’s public safety radio network. AirWave Communications, the local implementation partner identified in the original project, provides installation, programming, technical integration, FCC licensing support, and related implementation services. During final system deployment, Motorola Solutions and AirWave Communications also identified the need to upload and integrate encryption software to approximately 50 existing portable and mobile radios to ensure full compatibility with the upgraded communications system. These services were not included in the original implementation scope but are necessary to achieve the intended functionality and security of the upgraded radio network.

The proposed final phase of implementation will address these remaining project components through installation of the BDA system, encryption programming of existing radio equipment, and completion of associated testing, integration, and support services necessary to achieve full operational functionality of the City’s upgraded public safety communications network.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the proposed final phase radio implementation will require a budget adjustment to authorize a not-to-exceed contingency allocation of $150,000 to complete the remaining components of the Police Department radio upgrade project.

Approximately $44,867.70 of the requested contingency funding has been identified for the purchase and installation of a Bi-Directional Amplifier (BDA) system within the Police Department facility. The remaining contingency funding will be available to address costs associated with radio encryption software licensing, programming, configuration, integration, testing, training, and other unforeseen implementation requirements involving approximately 50 existing portable and mobile radio units.

The Police Department anticipates funding the contingency allocation primarily through salary savings realized during the current fiscal year as a result of vacant sworn officer positions. Utilizing available salary savings will minimize the impact on the City’s General Fund reserves while providing sufficient flexibility to address implementationrelated issues that may arise during final deployment of the upgraded communications system. Any expenditures from the contingency allocation will be limited to costs directly associated with completion of the radio system upgrade and related communications infrastructure improvements.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action consists of the approval of contingency funding and associated implementation activities for the final phase of the Police Department radio communication system upgrade and therefore constitutes a governmental funding mechanism or fiscal activity that does not involve a commitment to a specific project

that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment.

Accordingly, the action is not subject to CEQA.

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Marcos Torres, Deputy Public Works Director SUBJECT: WATER METER PURCHASE FOR METER RETROFIT PROJECT (CIP NO. WA0007) APPROVAL

RECOMMENDATION
Council find the action is not defined as a "project" per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines; accept a cost proposal for purchasing 253 water meter assemblies from Pace Supply Corp. (Badger Meter) totaling $146,366.71 (Quotation No. 2814357); and authorize the Deputy Public Works Director to issue a purchase order for the water meter assemblies.

BACKGROUND
Earlier this fiscal year, City Council approved funding under the City's ongoing Water Meter Retrofit Project (CIP No. WA00007) to continue the phased replacement and upgrade of aging water meters throughout the City. The project supports the City's longterm efforts to improve meter accuracy, enhance water system reliability, reduce water loss, and expand the implementation of Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) technology. These upgrades also assist the City in meeting operational, billing, and state reporting requirements while improving customer service through more accurate and efficient meter readings.

Since the original authorization, Public Works staff has continued evaluating system needs and available inventory levels associated with ongoing retrofit activities. Staff is now requesting additional funding authorization to purchase an additional 253 Badger Meter assemblies and associated AMI cellular endpoints from Pace Supply Corp. at a total quoted cost of $146,366.71. The proposed purchase includes a combination of 3/4-inch, 1-inch, 2-inch, 4-inch, and 6-inch meter assemblies to support both residential and larger commercial service replacements throughout the City's water distribution system.

The proposed equipment is compatible with the City's existing Badger Meter AMI system, currently utilized citywide. Standardizing meter equipment and communication technology allows the City to maintain consistency in operations, simple maintenance and inventory management, and ensure compatibility with the City's existing meter reading infrastructure. Public Works staff was also informed that Badger Meter distribution services are now being handled through Pace Supply Corp. As a result, the City is purchasing the equipment directly through the authorized distributor, enabling

Page 258 of 1070 ends

WATER METER PURCHASE FOR METER RETROFIT PROJECT (CIP NO. WA0007) APPROVAL - 2 -
the City to obtain the most competitive pricing while remaining consistent with its purchasing and procurement procedures. Because the City's existing AMI network, software platform, meter reading infrastructure, and inventory of replacement parts are standardized around Badger Meter equipment, staff has determined that procuring compatible Badger Meter products represents a sole-source purchase necessary to maintain system functionality, avoid costly modifications, and ensure continuity of operations. The additional purchase will allow staff to continue scheduled retrofit activities without interruption and address priority meter replacements identified during ongoing field inspections and maintenance operations.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City's Capital Improvement Program Project No. WA00007 has a remaining balance of $193,659.66. No budget action is required.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a "project" per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines because the action is the approval of the purchase of water meters for the meter retrofit project that has already been environmentally cleared and therefore, it is the creation of a governmental funding mechanism or other fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to a specific project that can result in a potentially significant impact and not subject to CEQA.

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Alex Gonzalez, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: KERN COUNTY'S CONSOLIDATED RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE

AND SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS (CRISI) GRANT APPLICATION

FOR THE CHERRY AVENUE GRADE SEPARATION PROJECT

RECOMMENDATION
Council find that the action is not a "project" per Section 15378(b)(4) of the CEQA Guidelines; authorize the Mayor to sign a funding commitment letter in support of Kern County’s application to the Federal Railroad Administration’s Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Program for the Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project; authorize participation in the Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project grant application; and authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute related documents necessary to support the grant application process.

BACKGROUND
Kern County, in partnership with the City of Shafter and BNSF Railway, is applying for funding through the Federal Railroad Administration’s Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Program for the Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project. The proposed project would grade-separate the existing rail crossing at Cherry Avenue and the BNSF Railway corridor within the City of Shafter. The rail corridor accommodates daily freight operations as well as Amtrak passenger rail service through California’s Central Valley.

The Cherry Avenue crossing has experienced multiple collisions in recent years resulting in injuries and fatalities and is currently ranked as the highest-risk rail crossing within the City of Shafter under the Federal Railroad Administration’s accident prediction system. Since 2020, three safety incidents have occurred at the crossing, underscoring the need for a long-term safety improvement. Continued residential, commercial, and industrial growth in the Shafter area has increased traffic volumes and heightened the need for improved transportation infrastructure in the corridor.

The proposed grade separation would improve public safety, reduce traffic delays, and enhance regional mobility by eliminating conflicts between roadway users and rail operations. The project would also improve freight and passenger rail reliability by reducing delays associated with at-grade crossing incidents and train stoppages.

Improved connectivity would provide residents and workers with more efficient access to employment, services, and other opportunities while enhancing overall quality of life

IMPROVEMENTS (CRISI) GRANT APPLICATION FOR THE CHERRY AVENUE GRADE

SEPARATION PROJECT

within the community.

The project reflects a collaborative effort among Kern County, the City of Shafter, and BNSF Railway to address a critical transportation and safety need. If grant funding is awarded, the City of Shafter would provide up to $4,460,000 toward the required nonfederal match for the project, subject to future City Council appropriations and approvals.

FISCAL IMPACT
If awarded, the City of Shafter would provide up to $4,460,000 toward the required nonfederal match associated with the Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project. The City’s contribution is anticipated to be funded through a combination of future Transportation Impact Fee revenues and other identified transportation funding sources, subject to future City Council appropriations and approvals. The City’s ultimate financial contribution may be reduced if additional grant funding or partner contributions become available for the project.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The action is not defined as a “project” pursuant to Section 15378(b)(4) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines because the action consists of authorizing a funding commitment letter and supporting an application for grant funding.

The action constitutes a governmental funding mechanism or other fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to a specific project that may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and is therefore not subject to CEQA.

Re: Kern County’s Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project Application for the Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Program – Funding Commitment Letter Dear Honorable David Fink,
I writing to express the City of Shafter’s strong support for Kern County’s application for funding under the USDOT FRA’s CRISI Grant Program for their project, the Cherry Avenue Grade Separation Project (or “Project”). The proposed project in the City of Shafter aims to grade-separate an existing rail/road at-grade crossing located at Cherry Avenue and the rail corridor which carries Amtrak’s Gold Runner daily services as well as daily freight services. The Cherry Avenue at-grade crossing is ranked first in the City of Shafter by FRA’s accident prediction system and represents a significant safety concern as well as a recurring impediment to local mobility. Since 2020, there have been three safety incidents at the Cherry Avenue crossing, including accidents which have resulted in injuries and fatalities. Grade separating this crossing will prevent collisions, reduce delays for both roadway users and rail traffic, and enhance overall safety for the City of Shafter and Kern County communities. In eliminating delays resulting from safety incidents, the Project will benefit intercity passenger rail reliability along this route which passes through Kern County and the City of Shafter, and which connects major regional cities such as Bakersfield, Fresno, Stockton, and Sacramento. The Project will improve safety for road users and directly raise the quality of life for residents through improved mobility. By enhancing connectivity, the project will help create a more livable environment and allow residents and workers better access to jobs and opportunities.

The Project is the result of close collaboration between Kern County, the City of Shafter, and BNSF Railway, representing a strong partnership of public and private entities committed to improving safety and quality of life in the community. Given the importance of grade separation at the Cherry Avenue rail crossing to Shafter residents, businesses, and the surrounding region, and for the required grant funding non-federal match, Shafter will commit funds to ensure the Project is completed. If awarded, the City’s funding commitment will be up to $4,460,000. for the Project.

The City of Shafter is passionate aboutsupporting the safe, efficient, and reliable operations of passenger and freight rail in California’s Central Valley. This transformative project will make a dramatic difference in the

Page 263 of 1070 ends

safety and mobility of the local community and its delivery and operations closely align with the sought after outcomes of the CRISI Program. We respectfully request that you give the Kern County’s CRISI grant application your full and fair consideration.

Sincerely,
Chad Givens
Mayor
City of Shafter

CITY OF SHAFTER

CITY COUNCIL REPORT
MEETING DATE: June 16, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Alex Gonzalez, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: 2026 CITYWIDE STREET STRIPING PROJECT –

AUTHORIZATION FOR FORMAL BIDDING

RECOMMENDATION
Council find that the action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA); approve the plans and specifications for the 2026 Citywide Street Striping Project; and authorize Staff to advertise the 2026 Citywide Street Striping Project for formal bidding.

BACKGROUND
The City annually completes a citywide street striping program following completion of the annual pavement maintenance and sand sealing work. The striping program restores pavement markings throughout the City, including lane lines, centerlines, crosswalks, legends, and other traffic control markings that are necessary to maintain roadway safety and visibility for motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians.

The proposed 2026 Citywide Street Striping Project will continue this annual maintenance effort by re-striping City streets following completion of the 2026 sand sealing program. The work is intended to preserve and maintain existing roadway markings and will not expand roadway capacity or alter existing traffic operations.

Staff has prepared plans and specifications for the project and is requesting authorization to advertise the project for formal bidding. Pursuant to the City's purchasing and contracting requirements, formal bidding is required because the anticipated construction cost is expected to exceed $100,000.

FISCAL IMPACT
Authorization to advertise the 2026 Citywide Street Striping Project for formal bidding does not require a budget amendment or other budget action at this time. Any future budget actions associated with project award or construction costs will be brought before the City Council for consideration following receipt and evaluation of bids.

CEQA ANALYSIS
The project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 (Class 1 – Existing Facilities).

The project consists of the repair, maintenance, and minor alteration of existing public

Page 265 of 1070 ends

BIDDING
- 2 -
streets involving negligible or no expansion of existing use. Specifically, the project involves restriping existing roadway markings within the current street rights-of-way following annual pavement maintenance activities. The project will not expand roadway capacity, modify traffic circulation patterns, or result in any increase in the intensity of use of the existing transportation facilities. Therefore, the project qualifies for the Class 1 categorical exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.

Bidders are advised that a copy of these rates must be posted by the successful Bidder at the job site(s).

In accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, contractors or subcontractors may not perform work on a public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1777.1 or 1777.7. Any contract on a public works project entered into between a contractor and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works contract. Any public money that is paid to a debarred subcontractor by the Contractor for the Project shall be returned to the City. The Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to work on the Project.

28. PERMIT AND INSPECTION FEE ALLOWANCE
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Bid Form contains an allowance for the Contractor’s cost of acquiring traffic control permits and for construction inspection fees that may be charged to the Contractor by the Agency of Jurisdiction. The allowance is included within the Bid Form to eliminate the need by bidders to research or estimate the costs of traffic control permits and construction inspection fees prior to submitting a bid. The allowance is specifically intended to account for the costs of traffic control permits and construction inspection fees charged by the local Agency of Jurisdiction only. No other costs payable by Contractor to the Agency of Jurisdiction are included within the allowance.

30. BASIS OF AWARD; BALANCED BID
The City shall award the Contract to the lowest responsible Bidder submitting a responsive Bid. The lowest Bid will be determined on the basis of the Total Bid Price. If the project includes bid alternates, award will still be based on the Total Bid Price.

The City may reject any Bid which, in its opinion when compared to other Bids received or to the City’s internal estimates, does not accurately reflect the cost to perform the Work. The City may reject as non-responsive any Bid which unevenly weights or allocates costs, including but not limited to overhead and profit to one or more particular bid items.

31. AWARD PROCESS
Once all Bids are opened and reviewed to determine the lowest responsive and responsible Bidder, the City may award the contract. The apparent successful Bidder should begin to prepare the following documents: (1) the Performance Bond; (2) the Payment Bond; and (3) the required insurance certificates and endorsements. Once the City notifies the Bidder of the award, the Bidder will have ten (10) working days from the date of this notification to execute the Contract and supply the City with all of the required documents and certifications. Regardless of whether the Bidder supplies the required documents and certifications in a timely manner, the Contract time will begin to run twenty (20) working days from the date of the notification. Once the City receives all of the properly drafted and executed documents and certifications from the Bidder, the City shall issue a Notice to Proceed to that Bidder.

32. EXECUTION OF CONTRACT
As required herein the Bidder to whom an award is made shall execute the Contract in the amount determined by the Contract Documents.

NOW, THEREFORE, we, ______________________________________________, the undersigned Contractor and ___________________________________________________________________ as Surety, a corporation organized and duly authorized to transact business under the laws of the State of California, are held and firmly bound unto the City in the sum of __________________________________________________________________ Dollars ($_________________________), said sum being not less than one hundred percent (100%) of the total amount of the Contract, for which amount well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.

THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his, her or its heirs, executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning; and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including the one (1) year guarantee of all materials and workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the City, its officials, officers, employees, and authorized volunteers, as stipulated in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be and remain in full force and effect.

As a part of the obligation secured hereby and in addition to the face amount specified therefore, there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by City in enforcing such obligation.

As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship.

The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project.
