investigated in accordance with this paragraph except for the resolution of compensation complaints.

Such referral shall be in writing, detailing the specific issues involved in the referral together with a statement of the resolution desired. The City Manager shall designate a personal representative who shall not be the Director of Human Resources to investigate the merits of the complaint, to meet with the complainant, and if the complainant is not the Association, to meet also with the officials of the Association and to settle the grievance or to make recommendations to the City Manager.

ATTACHMENT A
STOCKTON POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION (SPOA) SUCCESSOR MOU TERM: July 1, 2022 2025 – June 30, 20252028
CITY OF STOCKTON 16
Memorandum of Understanding MOU or written agreements or addenda supplementary hereto or to establish any new terms or conditions of employment.

8.5 Other Provisions

All complaints involving or concerning the payment of compensation shall be initially filed in writing with the City Manager. Only complaints which allege the employee is not being compensated in accordance with the provisions of this Memorandum of UnderstandingMOU shall be considered as grievances. Any other matters of compensation are to be resolved in the meeting and conferring process, and if not detailed in the MOUMemorandum of Understanding which results from such meeting and conferring process shall be deemed withdrawn until the meeting and conferring process is next open for such decision. No adjustment shall be retroactive for more than thirty (30) days from the date upon which the complaint was filed, except in cases where the City determines that the basis of the compensation issue was a result of a clerical error, the adjustment shall be no more than three hundred and sixty-five (365) days from the date upon which the complaint was filed.
The provisions of this sSection shall not abridge any rights to which an employee may be entitled under the City Charter, nor shall it be administered in a manner which would abrogate any power which, under the City Charter, may be within the sole province and discretion of the Civil Service Commission.
All grievances of employees represented by the Association shall be processed under this sSection. If the City Charter requires that a differing option be
ATTACHMENT A

CITY OF STOCKTON 17
available to the employee, no action under paragraph (d) of subsection 8.3 above shall be taken unless it is determined that the employee is not availing themselves of such option.
No action under paragraph (d) of subsection 8.3 above shall be taken if action on the complaint or grievance has been taken by the Civil Service Commission, or if the complaint or grievance is pending before the Civil Service Commission.
If any award by an arbitrator requires action by the City Council or the Civil Service Commission before it can be placed in effect, the City Manager and the Director of Human Resources will recommend to the City Council or the Civil Service Commission, as appropriate, that it follow such award.

SECTION 9. LEAVES
9.1 Sick Leave
(a) Accrual. All regular status employees, except provisional, temporary, and part-time employees, shall accrue sick leave at the rate of eight (8) hours for each full month of service. All regular status employees, except provisional, temporary, and part-time employees, working less than a full month shall accrue sick leave on a prorated basis. Unused sick leave shall accumulate from year to year. Employees shall continue to accrue sick leave while off duty on authorized sick leave; provided, however, an employee shall not accrue sick leave during any leave or leaves of absence without pay granted to the employee.
(b) Usage. Employees are entitled to sick leave pay for those days, which the employee would normally have worked, to a maximum of sick leave hours accrued.
An employee may use sick leave for preventive medical, dental, optical care, illness, injury, or exposure to contagious disease, which incapacitates them from performing their duties. This includes disabilities caused or contributed to by pregnancy, miscarriage, abortion, childbirth, and recovery therefrom.
(c) Usage for Family. Employees may utilize fifty percent (50%) of their annual accrued sick leave to attend to cases of illness or injury in the employee's immediate family.
For the purposes of this section, immediate family is defined as the employee’s parents, spouse, registered domestic partner, child (child as defined as biological, step, foster or adopted child; a legal ward; child of domestic partner; a child to whom the employee stands in loco parentis), legal dependent, brother, sister, mother-in-law, father-in-law, brother-in- law, sister-in-law, grandparent, and grandchild, and “designated person.” For the purposes of paid sick leave, a “designated person” means a “person identified by the employee at the time the employee requests paid sick leave.” An employee may select one (1) person as a “designated person” in a twelve (12) month period.

ATTACHMENT A
STOCKTON POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION (SPOA) SUCCESSOR MOU TERM: July 1, 2022 2025 – June 30, 20252028
CITY OF STOCKTON 19
from the department head prior to such absence. In all other instances, the employee shall notify their supervisor as promptly as possible of their absence.
Before an employee may be paid for the use of accrued sick leave, they shall complete and submit to their department head a signed statement, on a prescribed form, stating the dates and hours of absence, type of sick leave to be used, and such other information as is necessary for the request to be evaluated. If an employee does not return to work prior to the preparation of the payroll, other arrangements may be made with the approval of the department head.
(e) Doctor's Certificate or Other Proof. The Police Chief or designee may require a doctor’s certificate or other reasonable proof of illness as they deem necessary in order for an employee to receive an excused absence from work and sick leave pay. The employee shall be given notice prior to returning to work that they will be required to provide such documentation.
Employees who have unscheduled absences due to illness on a scheduled work day preceding or following a holiday may be required to bring a doctor’s certificate or other reasonable proof of illness in order to receive an excused absence and sick leave pay.
(f) Use of Sick Leave While on Vacation. An employee who is injured or who becomes ill while on vacation may be paid for sick leave in lieu of vacation provided that the employee:

(2) Received medical treatment or diagnosis and presents a statement indicating disabling illness or injury signed by a physician covering the period for which sick leave is claimed.
(g) Payment for Unused Sick Leave.

Cost Pick-Up for Credit for Unused Sick Leave for those members hired on or before August 16, 2013.

All regular status employees in the service of the City shall be allowed leave of absence without pay for the duration of a national emergency who have been inducted into the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force or any other branch of the Military Service of the United States or the State of California.

Further, the SPOA and the City agree that the transfer of assets will be contingent on the SPOA and Receiving Trustees agreeing that on and after the transfer of the assets of the RMT to the Receiving Trust (i) the City's only obligation with respect to such Receiving Trust will be to make any agreed upon contributions to the Receiving Trust, and (ii) the SPOA and the Receiving Trustees further agree that on and after the transfer of the assets of the RMT to the Receiving Trust, to indemnify and hold harmless the City and the City designated trustees from any claim whatsoever by the SPOA, any unit member, or any beneficiary of the Receiving Trust with respect to the Receiving Trust.

The City's obligation to contribute to the RMT has ceased. However, in the event that the Association’s membership votes to approve member contributions to the Receiving Trust, the City agrees to deduct those contributions (and any required administrative fees charged by third parties) from members’ paychecks. Nothing herein commits the City to paying any portion of any future contribution.
14.3 Life Insurance
The City shall provide each employee group term life insurance coverage with a face value of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000.00). In addition, employees may

The City agrees to use its best efforts to obtain confirmation of, and to implement, a plan of adjustment (“Plan”) that is consistent with the terms of this MOUMemorandum of Understanding, or as applicable, its successor MOUMemorandum of Understanding. All of the provisions of this aArticle except 2(c) shall be null and void in the event that the Plan contemplated by this Agreement is not confirmed and does not become effective.
(b) SPOA’s Claims. SPOA alleges that its members have claims in the bankruptcy case against the City relating to the City’s modification of its 2009 Memorandum of Understanding (“2009 MOU”), pursuant to Declarations of Fiscal Emergency beginning on or about May 26, 2010 and continuing in effect thereafter, and in connection with the treatment of the claims of SPOA and its members under the Pendency Plan (collectively, the “Claims”), and that, in the aggregate, the Claims exceed thirteen million dollars ($13,000,000). The City disputes the Claims and contends that the Claims would not be allowed in the chapter 9 case. It further asserts that, if the Claims were allowed, they would be allowed in an amount aggregating less than thirteen million dollars ($13,000,000).
In consideration of resolving the above differences and agreement on the MOUMemorandum of Understanding, the City agrees that the Claims shall be provided for in the Plan as follows:
(1) The Claims will be deemed allowed in the chapter 9 case in the aggregate amount of eight million, five hundred thousand dollars ($8,500,000) (the “Allowed Claims”). In consideration for the reduction in the amount of the Claims, SPOA members employed during fiscal year 2010-2011 and/or 2011-2012 shall be credited, upon final approval of the MOU Memorandum of Understanding by the Parties and, if necessary, by the Bankruptcy Court, twenty-two (22) additional hours of paid leave in fiscal year 2012-2013. These additional hours of paid leave shall have no cash value and shall be utilized any time prior to the date upon which the SPOA member leaves employment with the City. Only those employees who were employed during some portion of the period July 1, 2010 and July 1, 2012 and who were still current employees upon the effective date of this Agreement shall be entitled to this treatment.
(2) The Allowed Claims shall be satisfied under the Plan by the City by crediting SPOA members employed during fiscal year 2010-2011 and/or

STOCKTON POLICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION (SPOA) SUCCESSOR MOU TERM: July 1, 2022 2025 – June 30, 20252028
CITY OF STOCKTON 57
2011-2012, eleven (11) additional paid leave hours in the fiscal year of approval of the Plan and eleven (11) additional paid leave hours in the fiscal year after approval of the Plan. This benefit shall only apply to those employees who were employed during some portion of the period July 1, 2010 and July 1, 2012 and who are current employees as of the date the Plan is approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The total additional paid leave per SPOA member under paragraphs 2(a) and 2(b) of this article shall equal forty-four (44) hours. These additional paid leave hours shall have no cash value, and shall be utilized any time prior to the date upon which the SPOA member leaves employment with the City. It is understood that the provision of these hours shall be the sole compensation for the Claims of SPOA and its members. The additional twenty-two (22) hours additional paid leave credit contained in this paragraph 2(b) shall be contingent upon confirmation of the Plan and on the Plan becoming effective.
(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Plan is not confirmed and does not become effective, the Claims shall not be allowed as specified herein, and both SPOA and the City agree that the Claims will be considered unresolved, with each Party reserving the right to assert or contest the Claims; provided, however, that the monetary equivalent of any paid leave hours taken pursuant to this aArticle shall serve as a credit against the Claims.
(c) Implementation of 2012-2014 SPOA Memorandum of Understanding. The City shall include in its proposed Plan provisions that give effect to and comport with the terms of this Agreement.
(d) Plan Support. SPOA agrees to use its best efforts to support the Plan, the provisions of which include the treatment of the Claims as described above, and which are consistent with the terms of the MOUMemorandum of Understanding.
SPOA’s support for the Plan shall include statements in papers filed in the Bankruptcy Court and in appearances by its counsel in Bankruptcy Court. SPOA shall use its best efforts to cause its members to vote to approve the Plan, to withdraw any proofs of claim they have filed which are inconsistent with the MOUMemorandum of Understanding and not object to, or otherwise commence any proceeding against, or take any other action opposing any of the terms of the MOUMemorandum of Understanding, the Plan or any disclosure statement filed in connection with the Plan. At the City’s request, such support may also include the execution by SPOA of an agreement to recommend that its members vote in favor of the Plan.

(e) Further Assurances.

(f) Release of Claims. Except for the Parties’ respective obligations stated in the MOUMemorandum of Understanding, SPOA, on behalf of all employees in its bargaining unit, and the City hereby release and discharge each other, and their respective past or present parents, subsidiaries, successors, predecessors, assigns, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, and each of them, from and against any and all defenses, claims, demands, losses, damages, and causes of action of whatever kind or nature, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, which either of them may now or hereafter have against the other in any way related to the Claims and or Litigation Claims (as such term is defined below).

These cases shall remain stayed until the occurrence of the effective date of the Plan or the dismissal of the chapter 9 case. The Parties agree to waive any and all claims for attorneys’ fees or costs associated with the Litigation Claims.
The Parties, and each of them, hereby waive the provisions of sSection 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.
The Parties, and each of them, understand that if the facts with respect to which this release is given turn out to be different from the facts now known or believed by either of them to be true, each of them expressly assumes the risk of the facts turning out to be different, and agrees that this release shall be in all respects effective and not subject to termination or rescission by any such difference in facts.
This release shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective past or present parents, subsidiaries, successors, predecessors,

assigns, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, including but not limited to all bargaining unit employees, and each of them.

(g) Resolution of Dispute regarding the Property at 1132 N. Country Club Rd., Stockton, CA (“the Property”). City agrees to waive SPOA’s obligation to sell the Property identified in MOUMemorandum of Understanding sSection 23(g), contingent on dismissal of all pending litigation pursuant to sSection 23(f). SPOA shall continue renting the Property to third parties. No SPOA member, family member, agent or person within SPOA’s control shall apply to rent the Property.
(1) In renting the Property, SPOA shall utilize a licensed third- party rental agent not affiliated with SPOA or its agents.
(2) SPOA shall sell the Property not later than November 1, 2015, unless this provision is waived in writing by the City.
(3) The Property shall be maintained in its present state and SPOA shall exercise its best efforts to ensure that its tenants not interfere with the City Manager’s quiet enjoyment of their home.
(4) SPOA shall not seek to change the use of the Property as a single family residence (maximum two unrelated adults, or two adults and two children).
(5) Notwithstanding the effective date and expiration date of the MOUMemorandum of Understanding, this section (g)(1) shall be effective November 1, 2012, and shall apply to the SPOA’s current efforts to lease the Property. It shall expire upon the sale of the Property, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties.
(h) No Admissions. Except to acknowledge responsibility to perform the terms of this aArticle or to enforce those terms, the Parties agree that nothing contained in this aArticle or any action taken or the failure to take any action pursuant to this aArticle ever is to be construed as an admission or evidence tending to establish the validity of either Party's claims, including the initial Claims.
