PROGRAM (CIP)
CIP
Capital Improvement Plan
Introduction
Staff is pleased to present the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) of the City of Shafter, updated for Fiscal Years 2026–2031. This CIP book was prepared by the Public Works Department, Finance Department, and the City Manager’s Office in conjunction with multiple other departments.
Background
The CIP is a strategic planning tool that focuses on the needs and funding for City infrastructure and assets, summarized in one document and used in the annual operating budget preparation and update process. As a planning tool, the CIP document outlines the process and activities required to improve and maintain the City’s roadways, parks, facilities, and other infrastructure.
The preservation, maintenance, and improvement of capital infrastructure are essential functions. The City cannot plan for the future or sustain its current operations without reliable and sustainable infrastructure. The condition of its streets, sidewalks, water, sewer, storm drains, recreation facilities, parks, and other public facilities reflects how well the community is performing and its ability to sustain economic growth. The quality of life, health, safety, and financial well-being of the community are all tied to the strength of its infrastructure.
Generally, CIP improvements are major expenditures that result in maintaining and expanding City assets and are planned over a multi-year lifespan. This allows the City Council to better forecast and anticipate upcoming infrastructure needs and improvements. This CIP reflects and identifies the most critical infrastructure priorities over the next five years.
Detail and Content of CIP
The capital improvements presented in this document cover the most significant and critical projects, which generally exceed $25,000 in cost and have long-term life spans. The elements of these projects include funding for studies, design, land acquisition, bidding, construction, and ongoing operational and maintenance needs upon project completion.
Also included are the funding sources secured or planned to complete the projects. There are various funding sources for CIP projects, some steady and predictable, while others depend on grants, partnerships, loans, and other resources.
CIP Project Priorities
The upcoming projects identified in this CIP update are those in critical need to keep pace with the City’s growth and meet regulatory mandates. They are also intended to address priorities identified by the City Council and the public to improve and expand services.
Such funding priorities include8
Water supply and quality
Supporting public safety
Improving traffic circulation and safety for motorists and pedestrians Sanitary sewer collection and treatment systems
Emergency response facilities

Key Milestones
Milestones planned during the early years of this CIP cycle (Fiscal Years 2025–2026) include:
Construction Completion
North Shafter Community Park construction commenced with completion expected during the summer of 2026.
Shafter Aquatic Center Modular Building is expected to be completed during the summer of 2026.
Gossamer Grove Police Substation/Community Center is expected to be completed during the summer of 2026.
Residential Road Improvements to Reiker St, from West Ash Avenue to Lerdo Highway, and West Marengo Avenue, from Schnaidt Street to Reiker Street were completed.
Design Completion
Core City Bike Lane Improvements
Well 22 & 23 Site Development
Skate Park Parking and Restroom Improvements
Lerdo Highway Reconstruction — Schnaidt Street to Valley Street Zerker Road Reconstruction Phase IV
CIP Challenges
Some of the challenges the City faces in its effort to fund and implement the CIP include the following:
Aging Infrastructure
The City maintains roads, storm drains, utilities, and buildings with limited remaining service lives.
Competing Costs
The continued growth of the City has required increased levels of service, particularly in public safety and infrastructure expansion. These demands compete for limited financial resources in the City’s budget.
Deferred aintenance and eplacement
Past budgets have not always kept pace with the maintenance and replacement needs of the City's physical assets. As a result, repairs and replacements are often addressed reactively as issues arise.
Unassessed Capital Deficiencies
A comprehensive inventory of the condition of the City’s physical assets is needed to identify all capital needs. Many assets have exceeded their useful lives but remain in service. Conducting asset inventories helps identify physical condition, maintenance requirements, and potential replacement timelines.
Lack of Dedicated Funding
Capital improvements are funded through a combination of cash reserves and grants. Long:term financial strategies are needed to adequately fund capital improvements and maintenance. uture budgets must continue to address these needs to preserve City assets and extend their useful service lives.
Ongoing Planning Efforts
Capital Improvement Plan
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 211
Several initiatives are currently underway to better define the City’s funding commitments and infrastructure strategies, including:
Development impact fee studies
A General Plan update
Deployment of asset management technologies
Conclusion
Developing the CIP for Fiscal Years 2026–2031 was a collaborative effort among City staff across multiple departments. Implementing this CIP will help position the City of Shafter to better address its infrastructure needs, support continued growth, and meet future challenges.
Through these planned investments, public services and safety will be enhanced, ultimately benefiting residents, businesses, and the community as a whole.

BUDGET AND FISCAL POLICIES
BUDGET PURPOSE AND ORGANIZATION
A. Balanced Budget. The City will maintain a balanced budget. This means that:
1. Operating revenues must fully cover operating expenditures, including debt service and revenue sharing pass-throughs.
2. Ending fund balance/working capital must meet minimum policy levels or other target levels established by the Council for the fiscal year.
Under this policy, it is allowable for total expenditures to exceed revenues in a given year; however, in this situation, beginning fund balance should only be used to fund capital improvement plan projects or other “one-time,” non-recurring expenditures. (See Minimum Fund Balance and Reserves policy below for other circumstances when it would be appropriate to use beginning fund balance.)
B. Budget Objectives. Through its Budget, the City will link resources with goals and results by:
1. Identifying community needs for essential services.
2. Organizing the programs required to provide these essential services.
3. Describing programs and activities performed in delivering services.
4. Proposing objectives for improving the delivery of program services.
5. Identifying and appropriating the resources required to perform program activities and accomplish program objectives.
C. Measurable Objectives. The Budget will establish measurable program objectives and allow reasonable time to accomplish those objectives.
D. Goal Status Reports. The status of major program objectives will be formally reported to the Council on an ongoing, periodic basis.
E. Mid-Year Budget Reviews. The Council will formally review the City’s fiscal condition, and amend appropriations if necessary, six months after the beginning of each fiscal year.
Status: In Compliance. These practices are in place. However, linking resources to outcomes and measuring performance will always be a work in progress, with ongoing improvements.
REVENUE MANAGEMENT
A. Current Revenues for Current Uses; One-Time Revenues for One-Time Purposes. The City will make all current expenditures with current revenues, avoiding procedures that balance current budgets by postponing needed expenditures, accruing future revenues or rolling over short-term debt. The City will avoid using one-time revenues to fund ongoing program costs.
B. Revenue Distribution. The Council recognizes that generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments discourage the “earmarking” of General Fund
BUDGET & FISCAL POLICIES
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 227
BUDGET AND FISCAL POLICIES
revenues, and accordingly, the practice of designating General Fund revenues for specific programs should be minimized in the City's management of its fiscal affairs. In those cases where it does occur, the basis and methodology for earmarking should be clearly articulated in the City’s Budget and Fiscal Policies.
Status: In Compliance. These practices are in place. The Council has adopted a budget process and document for 2021-22 that meets these policy objectives.
MINIMUM FUND BALANCE AND RESERVES
Section 1: Policy
A. Policy Overview. This policy accomplishes two main goals. First, it sets forth specific levels of minimum unassigned fund balance to be maintained for the City's General Fund and a minimum level of available working capital for the City's Water, Wastewater and Refuse enterprise funds. Secondly, this policy establishes a framework and process for the City to follow if these reserve levels falls below the established minimum.
This policy provides guidelines for fiscal sustainability through maintaining adequate operational liquidity and should be used in the preparation of the City's Annual Operating Budget, Capital Improvement Plan and general financial management of the City. It does recognize the need for exceptions in extraordinary conditions and unforeseeable events while maintaining a goal and path to regain fiscal sustainability when necessary.
This Policy should be submitted periodically for peer review, if available, to confirm compliance with best practices and industry standards, including those issued by the Governmental Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) in setting reserve levels that adequately address risks such as:
1. Economic uncertainties, local disasters, public heath crises and other financial hardships or downturns in the local or national economy.
2. Contingencies for unseen operating or capital needs.
3. Unfunded liabilities such as self-insurance, pensions and retiree health obligations.
4. Institutional changes, such as State budget takeaways and unfunded mandates.
5. Cash flow requirements.
While an independent review does not serve as a substitute for adoption by the Council, it does demonstrate staff's due diligence in the preparation and updating of the policy.
B. Objectives. The purpose of this policy is to assist the City in the pursuit of the following equally important objectives:
1. Maintain long-term fiscal sustainability of the General, Water, Wastewater and Refuse Funds.
2. Meet the short-term liquidity needs of the General, Water, Wastewater and Refuse Funds.
3. Cultivate a fiscally responsible internal control environment.
4. Help achieve the highest possible credit ratings and lowest possible financing costs when borrowing funds.
228 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 2026/27
BUDGET AND FISCAL POLICIES
C. Budget Integration and Financial Management. The City's Annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Plan should be developed to comply and implement the various aspects of this policy. This includes but is not limited to both the budgeted use of excess unassigned fund balance or available working capital and the rebuilding of the same as needed to maintain compliance with the minimum reserve levels established herein. As a part of the budget process the City should conduct a sustainability analysis of the General Fund, which compares actual and budgeted recurring revenue sources with recurring expenditures. This tool can help identify a fiscal imbalance before it erodes the General Fund unassigned fund balance.
Any areas of shortfall or otherwise non-compliance with the minimum reserve levels contained within this policy should be disclosed in the City’s Annual Operating Budget document and Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, including a response from management on what actions are being taken to bring the City back into compliance with the policy.
D. Annual Policy Review. Recognizing the liquidity needs of the City will change over time due to items such as the volatility of expenditures; exposure to significant one-time outlays; potential impact on the City's bond rating and cost of borrowed funds; other fiscal commitments and assignments; and the availability of other funds. Accordingly, this policy will be reviewed in conjunction with the City's budget process. Any changes to the policy shall be brought to the Council for consideration and approval.
Section 2: Minimum Balances
The following amounts are hereby established as the minimum unassigned fund balance for the City's General Fund and minimum available working capital for the City's major utility enterprise funds.
A. General Fund. At the end of each fiscal year, the General Fund should have a minimum unassigned fund balance of at least 50% of annual operating expenditures. This is determined based on operating, debt service and revenue sharing pass-through expenditures, less any significant one-time operating costs. This represents 180 days of General Fund operating cash flow and is conservatively based on the risk assessment methodology for setting reserve levels developed by the GFOA.
B. Water, Wastewater and Refuse Funds. The City operates three major utility enterprise funds: water, wastewater and refuse, which provide essential public services that are paid for by users of these services. Maintaining adequate liquidity in these funds is an essential factor in the City's ability to provide these services without interruption. Accordingly, at the end of each fiscal year the City should have a minimum available working capital balance (current assets less current liabilities, minus amounts designated for funding capital projects) in each of these enterprise funds at equal or more than 25% annual operating expenditures for that fund. This is determined based on operating, debt service and revenue sharing pass-through expenditures, less any significant one-time operating costs.
This minimum available working capital balance should be factored into all future user rate studies used to establish utility user rates for these three funds.
C. Taking Reserves Below Minimum Policy Levels. There are circumstances where intentionally taking reserves below the established policy levels would be appropriate in
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 229
BUDGET AND FISCAL POLICIES
responding to the risks that reserves are intended to mitigate and are not considered a violation of this policy. These include one-time uses such as:
1. Making investments in human resources, technology, economic development, productivity improvements and other strategies that will reduce future costs or increase future revenue sources.
2. Reducing ongoing expenditures through the partial or full refinancing of liabilities.
3. Closing short-term revenue/expenditure gaps.
4. Responding to unexpected expenditure requirements or revenue shortfalls.
5. Meeting one-time cash flow needs as well as normal cash flow needs during the year.
6. Where a forecast shows an ongoing structural gap, providing a strategic bridge to the future.
Any intentional use of reserves that reduces reserve levels below the minimum policy levels shall be specifically approved by the Council.
Section 3: Correcting Balances Below the Minimum Balance Whenever funds with established minimum balances per this policy fall below these minimal levels, the City will strive to restore these balances to the minimum level within a three-year period. Some actions that may be considered to rectify this situation include the following:
A. General Fund
1. Strategically reducing general fund operating budgets.
2. Updating and improving the City's economic development strategy.
3. Assessing workload and staffing levels to ensure appropriate staffing of General Fund operations, redeploy staffing if necessary.
4. Conduct a revenue study to update General Fund revenue sources that may have fallen behind.
5. Conduct an analysis of the General Fund cost allocation to plan to ensure other City funds are paying the appropriate fees for the General Fund services they receive.
6. Identify special revenues or other funds that can help support the General Fund.
B. Water, Wastewater and Refuse Funds
1. Strategically reduce operations budgets.
2. Initiate a user rate analysis and implement rate changes as needed.
3. Analyze existing debt and possible refinancing options to reduce existing debt service costs.
230 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 2026/27
CITY STAFF AND OFFICIALS
4. Defer non-essential capital improvement projects until adequate funding can be secured through rate increases, grants or debt issuance.
Section 4: Use of Balances Exceeding the Minimum Balance At times, the City may find itself with unassigned General Fund balances and/or available working capital in the Water, Wastewater and Refuse funds that exceed the minimums established by this policy. This policy does not require or recommend that those additional reserve funds be spent down but it does establish the following guidelines regarding the potential use of those funds.
A. Excess reserve funds are not to be used for new or existing recurring expenses except on a short-term basis.
B. Investment of these funds on a longer-term basis, in compliance with the City's Investment Policy, should be considered to provide an ongoing source of recurring investment income for the City
C. Assignment or use of these funds should be considered for early partial or full retirement of existing debt or other City liabilities.
D. A review of the one-time capital improvements needed within the City should be considered to identify and prioritize potential capital projects. Once potential projects have been identified, assignment or use of these funds should be considered for these one-time capital improvement projects.
E. New (as opposed to replacement) one-time capital improvement projects considered for funding should be consistent with the long-term planning of the Council and community led Shafter Visioning project.
Status: In Compliance. The projected unassigned General Fund balance at the end of 2021-22 is 79% of operating and revenue-sharing pass-through expenditures; and working capital balances at the end of 2020-21 compared to budgeted expenditures are projected to be 68% of operating and debt service expenditures in the Water Fund and 175% in the Wastewater Fund.
While working capital is projected to be 16% of operating expenditures in the Refuse Fund, this was due to the drawdown of $300,000 for capital investment in 2020-21 and is an increase over the 8% working capital ratio in the 2020-21 budget. In accordance with Section 3 of this policy, the goal is to restore the Refuse Fund working capital balance to 25% within two more years. Additionally, within this fiscal year the next rate study is to be completed, which is to adjust rates to incorporate the working capital calculations in the new rates. This is one of the tools in the policy for use in rectifying the shortfall in meeting the policy ratio.
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND BUDGET ADMINISTRATION
A. Annual Reporting. The City will prepare annual financial statements as follows:
1. In accordance with Charter requirements, the City will contract for an annual audit by a qualified independent certified public accountant. The City will strive for an unqualified auditors’ opinion.
2. The City will use generally accepted accounting principles in preparing its annual financial statements and will strive to meet the requirements of the GFOA’s Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting program.
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 231
CITY STAFF AND OFFICIALS
3. The City will issue audited financial statements within 180 days after year-end.
B. Interim Reporting. The City will prepare and issue timely interim reports on the City’s fiscal status to the Council and staff. This includes on-line access to the City’s financial management system; monthly reports to program managers; more formal quarterly reports to the Council and Department Heads; mid-year budget reviews; and interim annual reports.
C. Budget Administration. The Council may amend or supplement the budget at any time after its adoption by majority vote of the Council members. Council approval is required for all new appropriations from fund balance. The City Manager has the authority to make administrative adjustments to the budget as long as those changes will not have a significant policy impact nor affect budgeted year-end fund balances.
Status: In Compliance. These practices are in place.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 233
234 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 2026/27
1 City of Shafter
Compensation Philosophy
The City of Shafter (“City”) is committed to developing and maintaining organizational and community values and to delivering exceptional and innovative service to the public. A key to delivering on these commitments is a City workforce that is represented by dedicated and talented professional staff. A public service environment that is attractive to such individuals depends upon many factors, including: pride, teamwork, a competitive compensation program, and non-monetary benefits such as recognition in the workplace for accomplishments, professional development, opportunities for promotion, and a positive work environment.
A competitive employee compensation program is critical for a positive and productive workplace in which all staff consistently perform at a high standard in their work including customer service, ethics, and passion for public service. The City’s compensation philosophy strives to:
• At the most fundamental level, maintain integrity and fiscal responsibility, meaning that overall compensation structures must be sustainable.
• Provide equal pay for equal work, and not take into consideration race, ethnicity, religion, sex, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or other factors unrelated to work performance.
• Attract and retain the highest quality talent capable of delivering the highest standards of public service.
• Value the contributions made by City employees and provide a growth and development plan for each employee to maximize his or her potential within the organization.
While the City desires to hire and retain the highest quality employees and to provide competitive, sustainable, and responsible compensation, it’s leadership and employees should consider these factors and limitations:
• Any compensation increase must be conditioned upon the City's current and long-term fiscal ability to pay for that level of total compensation without diminishing level of service to the public or increase budget deficits, all while maintaining prudent reserves. • Total compensation, including base salaries and benefits, should be used to assess the competitiveness of the City’s compensation package.
• Remain competitive with a “relevant labor market” defined by the City’s geographic region and applicable employment positions and classifications.
• Other relevant factors that can impact the City’s ability to fund compensation packages, include unforeseen economic, regulatory, or level of service changes.
Objectives to maintain a successful and responsible compensation program include the following:
• Transparency with the community, recognizing that taxpayers and ratepayers ultimately fund all employee compensation and deserve commensurate value from all those who work for the City. • Fiduciary responsibility and consistent communication of the City’s financial position and budget. • City’s commitment to open dialog, innovative approaches, and collaborative efforts with employee groups, unrepresented management employees, benefit providers, and other public agencies.

SUMMARY OF EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
The following information is intended as a ready reference and brief summary of the City’s personnel policies, work rules and benefits. It is designed to provide a quick overview and access to general information conditioned on your employment status as a full-time employee. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, part-time, extra help and temporary employees are excluded. This summary is not intended to provide an entire benefit description and cannot anticipate every situation or answer every question. This is not an employment contract or a legal document and does not constitute a contract. To retain flexibility, the City’s personnel policies, work rules, benefits and other provisions frequently change without notice to its employees. The information may not be current or may differ due to changes in the employee bargaining agreements. Refer to respective plan brochures, city policies and procedures, and employee bargaining agreements for benefit provisions, limitations, and exclusions. Prior to acting based on any information, you should contact the Human Resources Department at 661-746-5003. ♦ Probation:
The probationary period is the final step in the selection process. It is an extension of the examination process. An employee is considered at will and may be rejected anytime for failure to satisfactorily complete the probationary period. The length of the probationary period is six (6) months, except that peace officers and dispatchers serve a twelve (12) month probation. The probationary period may be extended for a maximum of six (6) additional months.
♦ Performance Appraisal Reports (PAR):
A Performance Appraisal Report (PAR) is scheduled at the conclusion of the probationary period and annually. As approved by the Department Head and City Manager, a merit increase is awarded based on an overall satisfactory or better rating on the annual PAR when normally increasing job productivity is documented.
♦ Pay Plan:
The duties and responsibilities determine each job classification and is assigned a salary range. Five steps of compensation exist within that salary range (Steps A through E). Step A represents the minimum rate of compensation and Step E represents the maximum. There is a difference of 5% between each salary step. Each step represents an increasing level of responsibility and competence. Advancement in step is considered on a merit basis subject to the approval of the Department Head and City Manager. ♦ Tax Withholding Statement (W-4):
Filing both Federal and State tax withholding statements are required. A new tax withholding statement can be filed anytime throughout the year. The tax withholding statements do not need annual renewal. However, to continue an exempt status from the previous year, you must file a new tax withholding statement claiming exempt status by February 15. Failure to do so requires a tax withholding of single with no allowance. ♦ Wages:
Employee pay operates on a bi-weekly pay schedule; including 80-hour work periods with 26 work periods per year. Employees are paid for actual hours worked (or paid time off used) plus any overtime worked in excess of the base work week during the pay period.

SUMMARY OF EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 245
♦ Pay Period:
Pay periods, pay days, and overtime/leave cut-off dates are outlined on the payroll schedule below. ♦ Overtime:
Employees who do not meet the duties and salary test under the Fair Labor Standard Act (FLSA) are not exempt from overtime compensation and are paid at a rate of one and one-half times the hourly rate for hours worked in excess of the base work week period. Overtime compensation may be paid as income on the paycheck or banked as compensatory time off (CTO). Overtime forms are required to be submitted as the overtime is worked. Failure to submit overtime forms by the end of the pay period is considered falsification of timekeeping records.
Employees who meet the duties and salary test under the FLSA as executive, administrative or professional are exempt from overtime compensation.
Exempt employees are not paid for hours worked in excess of the base work week period. Exempt employees receive compensation each day, despite the number of hours worked during the work week period. Exempt employees absent for a full day or more should submit an employee leave form.
Exempt employees do not submit leave forms for partial day absences. ♦ Pay Day:
Employee pay operates on a bi-weekly pay schedule. Pay checks are issued the Friday following the payroll cut-off date (refer to payroll schedule for exact dates). When payday is on a holiday, pay is issued on the prior business day. The paycheck stub shows current and year-to-date earnings plus accrued leave balances and deduction information. Paycheck stubs are available via Employee Self Service (ESS). ♦ Direct Deposit:
Employees are subject to mandatory participation in the direct deposit of their City payroll checks to a bank account of their choice. Direct deposit by electronic transfer of the entire paycheck into a checking account can be made to any banking institution. Subject to bank rules, funds are posted to accounts on payday. Paycheck stubs can be accessed via Employee Self Service (ESS). ♦ Uniform Allowance:
Employees required to wear uniforms are issued shirts and pants, or receive a cash allowance accordingly per MOU. Upon termination, uniforms must be returned, and advanced cash allowance must be repaid on a pro-rated basis. ♦ Tuition Reimbursement:
As authorized, employees who pursue a higher education in job-related, career enhancing courses or to attain a degree, may be reimbursed up to $3000 in a calendar year for expenses (tuition, book purchase or rental, fees, permits, etc.).
246 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 2026/27
♦ Education/Certification Incentive:
Employees in designated positions may be eligible for education and/or certification incentives as approved by the Department Head, which may include PD - POST certificate incentive for Police and Dispatch classifications and State Arborist and Water Distribution Certificates for designated Public Works classifications. Request must be submitted through Cognito Forms for Department Head and City Manager approvals. ♦ Bilingual Allowance:
Employees in designated positions as approved by the Department Head are eligible for an incentive for fluency in Spanish. Certification requires a Spanish conversational examination.
♦ Rest Breaks:
Rest periods are normally provided to employees at the rate of fifteen (15) minutes for each four (4) hours worked. No additional compensation or benefits is paid if a rest period is missed since it is already paid time. ♦ Vacation Time:
Vacation leave is based on an eight (8) hour day and is earned based on years of service.
Vacation begins to accrue on a pro-rated hourly basis at the end of the first full pay period worked. Vacation cannot be taken until completion of one year of service and must be taken within a year after it is earned. Vacation stops accruing at a balance of two times the annual accrual rate based on a rolling forward method and resumes when vacation is taken, dropping the balance below the maximum. Example: Employee accrues vacation at a rate of 3.077 hours per period or 80 hours annually. Accruals stop when balance reaches 160 hours and does not resume until balance is below 160 hours. The time at which vacation can be taken is determined by the Department Head with regard for the wishes of the employee and particular regard for the needs of the City. When a holiday falls during vacation, the holiday is charged in lieu of vacation leave. Employees are required to submit time off requests in ESS for vacation leave. Vacation leave balance is posted on the paycheck stub. Time off requests must be submitted as vacation occurs for all hours absent from work during the work week. Failure to submit time off requests by the end of the pay period is considered falsification of timekeeping records.
♦ Holidays:
Unless otherwise specified, holidays are eight (8) hours. Floating holidays are credited to your leave account the first pay period of July and require Department Head approval consistent with the efficient operation of the department. A floating holiday not used by June 30 does not carry over to the next fiscal year.
Non-shift employees normally take a holiday off on the day it falls, except when a holiday falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday is observed, and when it falls on a Sunday, the following Monday is observed. When a holiday falls during a vacation, the holiday is in lieu of vacation. Employees assigned to work on holidays are paid at time and one half. Holidays can be paid as wages as it occurs throughout the year or banked as CTO to use as paid leave throughout the year.
♦ Sick Leave
Sick leave accrues at a rate of 3.6923 hours bi-weekly, beginning on the first day of employment for a full-time regular appointment. There is no limit to the accumulation. Temporary and part-time employees accrue one (1) hour of sick leave for every 30 hours worked and will be credited pro-rata each pay period; maximum annual carryover is 48 hours. Time off requests must be submitted in ESS as sick leave occurs for all hours absent from work during the work week. Failure to submit time off requests by the end of the pay period is considered falsification of timekeeping records. Medical certification is required for an employee absent 3 or more consecutive calendar days, or upon request when in conjunction with regular days off or a holiday.
Sick leave can be used for an illness that keeps an employee from performing work. Sick leave can also be used as family sick leave when the employee is required to provide care for an employee’s spouse or eligible dependent with a serious or emergency illness. Family sick leave is limited to a maximum of half of what is earned in a calendar year.
Employees with at least 480 hours of accrued sick leave are eligible for a Stay Well Bonus. For purposes of sick leave accounting, the annual period is December 1 through November 30. All unused sick leave above 480 hours will be used for calculating the employee stay well bonus paid on or around December 15. Net sick leave earned and not used during the annual period will be divided in half. One-half will be paid to the employee at the employee’s current base hourly rate and the remaining one-half shall remain as regular sick leave.

While at jury duty during normal scheduled work hours, employees receive their regular pay for hours of absence from work. Submit a jury duty timecard form verifying the hours at jury duty to payroll staff, and submit a time off request in ESS specifying Jury Duty as the type of leave. Provided there is at least one (1) hour of work time before and after jury duty, employees must report for work. Failure to submit a time off request, jury duty timecard, or report for work is considered falsification of timekeeping records. ♦ Military Leave:
Military leave is provided consistent with State/Federal law. Some military leave provided up to thirty (30) days paid per year. Failure to submit a time off request for military leave is considered falsification of timekeeping records. ♦ Bereavement Leave:

Federal and State laws require that the City offer employees and dependents temporary extension of its group medical and dental plans, called "continuation coverage" and referred to as COBRA, at group rates plus a 2% administrative fee. Employees covered by the City’s medical and/or dental plans have a right to choose this continuation coverage if they lose group coverage because of a reduction in hours or the termination of employment for reasons other than gross misconduct. The employee’s spouse has the right to choose continuation of group coverage in the event of the death of a spouse; termination of spouse's employment (for reasons other than gross misconduct) or reduction in spouse's hours of employment; divorce or court ordered legal separation from spouse; or spouse becoming entitled to Medicare. The employee’s dependents have the right to continuation of group coverage in the event of the death of a parent; the termination of a parent's employment (for reasons other than gross misconduct) or reduction in a parent's hours of employment, parents' divorce or court ordered legal separation; parent becomes entitled to Medicare; or the dependent ceases to be eligible. A child who is born to or placed for adoption with a covered employee during a period of continuation coverage is eligible for COBRA coverage. A new spouse or new dependents must be added to COBRA coverage within the time frame and with the appropriate forms provided for active employee coverage.
The employee must inform the City of a divorce, court ordered legal separation, or dependent losing eligibility within 30 days of the event. If notice is not received within that 30-day period, the right to COBRA and continuation coverage is lost. When the City is notified that such an event has occurred, the City sends a notice of the right to continuation coverage under COBRA. The City must be informed that continuation coverage under COBRA is wanted within 60 days of one of the events described above. COBRA requires that participants be afforded the opportunity to maintain continuation coverage of medical and dental insurance for 36 months. ♦ Medical Insurance:
Coverage begins on the first day of the month following date of hire. The City pays 100% of the insurance premium for coverage on regular full-time employee, spouse and dependents for the base plan.

2026/27 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 249
Employees are responsible for paying the member contribution rate. The contribution is deposited into the employee’s CalPERS member account. The contribution rate for a Classic miscellaneous member is 7% and 9% for a Classic safety member. PEPRA members contribute 50% of the annual normal cost rate and the contributions are subject to increase, decrease, or stay the same in any given year. The normal cost rate for fiscal year 25/26 is 7.75% for miscellaneous PEPRA members and 13.75% for PEPRA Safety members. The City pays an employer contribution which varies annually.
Previously withdrawn funds can be redeposited on a pre-tax basis through payroll deduction. Employees must contact CalPERS to determine the cost.
Reciprocity is an agreement between CalPERS and certain other city, county or special district retirement plans that provides retirement benefits based on your highest earnings in either plan. Reciprocity must be established within 6 months of employment.
The beneficiary of a member’s account is established by law. Changes can be made by completing a change form. A married member requires the spouse’s signed consent. Before you retire, death benefits are payable to the following survivors in the following order unless designated otherwise on a valid Beneficiary Designation form: 1. Your surviving spouse/registered domestic partner (whether or not you were still living together at the time of your death); or, if none, 2.

Great-grandchildren, share and share alike, or, if none, and 11. Cousins, share and share alike. ♦ Deferred Compensation:
As authorized by IRS Code 457, the City offers an optional supplemental retirement savings plan through MissionSquare that defers taxable income and interest earned. Participation is voluntary and contributions can be increased, decreased, stopped or restarted without restriction and without fees or penalties. There are no restrictions or charges for reallocation of investments. Contributions are made through payroll deduction on a pretax basis so current income taxes are reduced. Nothing in the account is forfeited in the event of death and the designated beneficiaries receive the remaining funds. Contributions can start with as little as $25 per pay period. Withdrawal of contributions is limited to retirement, separation of employment, and while employed, due to a severe financial hardship resulting from a sudden illness, disability, or accidental property loss, or with an account balance of less than $5,000 where no contributions have been made for two years (other conditions may apply). ♦ Disability Insurance:
Employees participate in the State Disability Insurance (SDI) program. Employees pay 1% of wages by payroll deduction to fund future SDI and Paid Family Leave (PFL) benefits. SDI pays temporary disability benefits up to one year when you cannot work due to your own injury or illness that is not the result of your job. PFL pays compensation benefits not to exceed 6-weeks in a 12-month period when you stop working to care for a seriously ill qualified family member as verified by doctor certification or to bond with a new child. SDI and PFL provide income and are not a right to time off, or job protection if time off is granted. The right to job protected leave must be consistent with the Federal and State Family Medical Leave Acts, or State Pregnancy Disability Act.
Your weekly benefit amount is about 60 to 70 percent (depending on income) of wages earned 5 to 18 months before your claim start date up to the maximum weekly benefit amount. SDI has a 7-day non-payable waiting period, PFL does not have a waiting period. Employees must use sick (if eligible), or other accrued leave to cover the wage difference between SDI/PFL and city pay. Benefit checks are issued every two weeks. ♦ Workers’ Compensation:
Workers’ compensation benefits are provided as required by law to protect employees who are injured on the job. The City is self-insured for workers compensation benefits and pays the benefits through a third-party administrator, Acclamation Insurance Management Services (AIMS). Coverage is automatic and begins immediately. Benefits include payment for medical expenses and tax-free temporary disability (TD) payments to help replace lost wages while temporarily disabled.
Report the injury immediately to a supervisor or to the Human Resources Department. Don’t delay, there are time limits to report an injury. Waiting too long may result in losing the right to benefits. You will be given an injury report form to complete, with instructions on how to obtain medical care. If in need of emergency care, call 911 for help immediately. Medical care is provided through the City’s authorized medical providers. Pre-designation of a personal medical doctor to treat work related injuries requires prior written authorization.
TD benefits are provided when an injured employee cannot work. TD is based on earnings, and is about 66% of the employee’s average weekly earnings, not to exceed a weekly maximum amount of $1,764.11 for 2026. There is a 3-day non-payable waiting period. Employees must use sick, vacation or other accrued leave to cover the difference between TD and city pay to provide 100% until accruals are exhausted. TD benefit checks are issued every two weeks. TD benefits are not issued for partial day absences and sick leave must be used for medical care appointments. Leave taken for a worker compensation injury or illness qualifies as job protected leave pursuant to the Federal and State Family Medical Leave Acts.
250 SHAFTER OPERATING BUDGET 2026/27
♦ Flexible Spending Account (FSA):
The City offers an optional FSA plan benefit through AFLAC. To enroll in this benefit, contact AFLAC representative Stacie Bender for assistance.
Coverage begins on the first day of the month following date of hire. FSA plan benefits, as authorized by IRS code 125, allow employees to use pretax dollars to pay for certain benefit costs, thus reducing taxable income, and increasing take-home pay. With FSA, a portion of each paycheck is set aside to pay insurance premiums for optional insurance plans such as accident, sickness, short term disability, intensive care, cancer care, long term care and personal major recovery & life threatening events, and to self-reimburse for dependent day care (DDC) and unreimbursed medical (URM) expenses. This amount is deducted from employee paychecks before federal and state income taxes are calculated so taxes are not paid on money spent on qualified DDC or URM expenses, or optional insurance plans. Without an FSA, employees pay taxes on every dollar earned, then optional insurance plans and DDC or URM expenses are paid.
A DDC/FSA covers dependent children under age 13 who qualify as tax dependents and anyone claimed as a tax dependent because of physical or mental inability to care for himself/herself. An URM FSA covers medical expenses such as insurance copayments and deductibles, medical care (consultations, diagnostic lab work, etc.), prescription and diabetic supplies (blood sugar monitor, syringes, test strips, etc.), dental and vision care.
Enrollment in AFLAC is limited to the 30-day period from the initial hire date or at open enrollment (October), effective January 1. Changes to plan benefits selected cannot occur until the next open enrollment period, or under certain circumstances during the plan year such as changes in cost or coverage, changes in family status and separation from service. Any changes in marital status or dependent eligibility must be reported to the Human Resources Department within 30 days of occurrence, otherwise plan changes due to newly eligible spouse or dependents are delayed until open enrollment. During open enrollment, insurance plans automatically renew unless you make changes. However, DDC and URM accounts require reenrollment each year. The individual plan brochure describes specific plan benefits and co-payments.
To request reimbursement for qualified DDC or URM expenses, submit a claim form and proof of payment of expenses. Caution should be used in determining how much to set aside from each paycheck for DDC and URM expenses. Qualified DDC expenses must have occurred during the plan year. Qualified URM expenses must have been paid during the plan year regardless of when services were provided (IRS Publication 502). You may roll over up to $500 unused amount of URM from one plan year to the next, all amounts over $500 are forfeited. Any unused amount set aside for DDC does not roll over to the next plan year and is forfeited. ♦ Employee Assistance Program (EAP):
The EAP provides evaluation by professional counselors, and if appropriate, short-term counseling for behavioral problems which affect work performance or personal life. Through a confidential, self-referral process, employees and their household members can discuss their personal situation such as family violence, marital relationship or parenting conflicts, substance abuse assessment, addictions, stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, or referrals to community resources. Refer to the brochure for details. Other services such as financial, legal, etc., are also available. ♦ Employee Union Membership:
The City operates under specific Employer-Employee Relations Policies and City Personnel System Rules. Certain positions are recognized under employee bargaining groups. Part-time and temporary employees are excluded. Employee bargaining groups negotiate salary and benefits for members and agreements are contained in each employee bargaining group memorandum of understanding (MOU). Employees are not required to become due paying members nor to contribute a representation fee. Groups recognized are the Shafter Police Officers Association (SPOA) and the Shafter Public Works Employee Association. Membership dues are made as a payroll deduction. Positions not recognized by a bargaining unit are covered by Resolution of the City Council.
♦ Assigned Vehicle Program:
Designated Police and Public Works employees may take home pool vehicles as authorized by the Department Head. The benefit may be reported as taxable income under certain circumstances. City employees are required to use pool vehicles to travel on business. Incidental use of a personal vehicle for business travel is prohibited, unless authorized in writing. Use of a personal vehicle requires submission of proof of personal automobile insurance.
♦ Policies:
Employees are required to receive, understand and adhere to specific City policies, and are required to acknowledge such in writing. Depending on the job assignments, these policies include but are not limited to the following: DMV Driving Record, Department of Transportation Drug Testing, Confidential Personnel Information, Drug and Alcohol in the Workplace, Employee Protection Line, Fraud, Harassment and Discrimination, Hepatitis B Immunization Program, HIPPA Program, Personnel System Rules, Wage Deduction, Workers Compensation, and Workplace Violence.

Capital Improvement Plan
Introduction
Staff is pleased to present the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) of the City of Shafter, updated for Fiscal Years 2026–2031. This CIP book was prepared by the Public Works Department, Finance Department, and the City Manager’s Office in conjunction with multiple other departments.
Background
The CIP is a strategic planning tool that focuses on the needs and funding for City infrastructure and assets, summarized in one document and used in the annual operating budget preparation and update process. As a planning tool, the CIP document outlines the process and activities required to improve and maintain the City’s roadways, parks, facilities, and other infrastructure.
The preservation, maintenance, and improvement of capital infrastructure are essential functions. The City cannot plan for the future or sustain its current operations without reliable and sustainable infrastructure. The condition of its streets, sidewalks, water, sewer, storm drains, recreation facilities, parks, and other public facilities reflects how well the community is performing and its ability to sustain economic growth. The quality of life, health, safety, and financial well-being of the community are all tied to the strength of its infrastructure.
Generally, CIP improvements are major expenditures that result in maintaining and expanding City assets and are planned over a multi-year lifespan. This allows the City Council to better forecast and anticipate upcoming infrastructure needs and improvements. This CIP reflects and identifies the most critical infrastructure priorities over the next five years.
Detail and Content of CIP
The capital improvements presented in this document cover the most significant and critical projects, which generally exceed $25,000 in cost and have long-term life spans. The elements of these projects include funding for studies, design, land acquisition, bidding, construction, and ongoing operational and maintenance needs upon project completion.
Also included are the funding sources secured or planned to complete the projects. There are various funding sources for CIP projects, some steady and predictable, while others depend on grants, partnerships, loans, and other resources.
CIP Project Priorities
The upcoming projects identified in this CIP update are those in critical need to keep pace with the City’s growth and meet regulatory mandates. They are also intended to address priorities identified by the City Council and the public to improve and expand services.
Such funding priorities include:
Water supply and quality
Supporting public safety
Improving traffic circulation and safety for motorists and pedestrians Sanitary sewer collection and treatment systems
Emergency response facilities

CIP Challenges
Some of the challenges the City faces in its effort to fund and implement the CIP include the following:
Aging Infrastructure
The City maintains roads, storm drains, utilities, and buildings with limited remaining service lives.
Competing Costs
The continued growth of the City has required increased levels of service, particularly in public safety and infrastructure expansion. These demands compete for limited financial resources in the City’s budget.
Deferred Maintenance and Replacement
Past budgets have not always kept pace with the maintenance and replacement needs of the City's physical assets. As a result, repairs and replacements are often addressed reactively as issues arise.
Unassessed Capital Deficiencies
A comprehensive inventory of the condition of the City’s physical assets is needed to identify all capital needs. Many assets have exceeded their useful lives but remain in service. Conducting asset inventories helps identify physical condition, maintenance requirements, and potential replacement timelines.
Lack of Dedicated Funding
Capital improvements are funded through a combination of cash reserves and grants. Long-term financial strategies are needed to adequately fund capital improvements and maintenance. Future budgets must continue to address these needs to preserve City assets and extend their useful service lives.
Ongoing Planning Efforts
Capital Improvement Plan
City of Shafter- CIP FY2026-2031 Budget Book | Shafter Page 5
Several initiatives are currently underway to better define the City’s funding commitments and infrastructure strategies, including:
Development impact fee studies
A General Plan update
Deployment of asset management technologies
Conclusion
Developing the CIP for Fiscal Years 2026–2031 was a collaborative effort among City staff across multiple departments. Implementing this CIP will help position the City of Shafter to better address its infrastructure needs, support continued growth, and meet future challenges.
Through these planned investments, public services and safety will be enhanced, ultimately benefiting residents, businesses, and the community as a whole.
