4 II AGENDA ITEM NO. 6
AGENDA TRANSMITTAL
MEETING DATE: May 2, 2023
CITY AGENDA ITEM: Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_ Amending the Job Classification of Police Officer Trainee and Authorizing the Police Officer Trainee Program, Compensation, and Benefits.
FISCAL IMP ACT: The Police Officer Trainee Program is funded by vacant Police Officer positions.
There is no financial impact on the current year's budget.
STRATEGIC PLAN: Provide Good Governance.
BACKGROUND: On March 12, 2019, during the 2018-19 Mid-Year Budget Update, City Council authorized the establishment of the Police Officer Trainee program to assist with the recruitment of Police Officers. The program was authorized to provide a non-benefited wage to attend and graduate from the police academy.
The department hired one person under this program in January of 2020; however, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic hindered this person's ability to complete the police academy. The recent departure of several police officers, and difficulty recruiting to fill department vacancies, have prompted an interest in using the Police Officer Trainee program as a tool to assist with the recruitment of Police Officers.
STAFF REPORT: Since February of this year, the Police Department has experienced four vacancies in the Police Officer classification, and two more are expected by June. Officers are leaving to other agencies offering higher pay and significant hiring incentives. The Police Department has interest in utilizing the Police Officer Trainee program as a pipeline to fill current vacancies.
The resolution before council today, is intended to authorize an update to the Police Officer Trainee class specification, and to authorize the benefit package available to persons hired in this classification, beyond which other Temporary Part-Time employees currently receive.
The Police Officer Trainee is the non-sworn, trainee-level class in the Police Officer series, in which incumbents are expected to learn law enforcement techniques and practices while completing the mandated peace officer academy to obtain Basic POST certification. Incumbents are hired in temporary, limited-term positions under an at-will employment status with continued employment contingent upon maintaining enrollment in a POST approved academy. The police academy has an expected duration of approximately six months.
This classification is flexibly staffed with the sworn Police Officer classification, allowing advancement to the sworn Police Officer level at the discretion of the Police Chief upon successful completion of the police academy, meeting minimum qualification standards, and availability of police officer positions.
Compensation for this classification is outlined in the published Citywide Salary Schedule, starting at $28.63 to $30.06 per hour. Incumbents hired in this classification will receive an hourly wage for their 5 time in the training academy.
Benefits include paid sick leave as required by the Healthy Workplace Healthy Family Act, medical coverage per the Affordable Care Act if eligible after the initial waiting period and monitored qualification for CalPERS retirement benefits with enrollment required if employed full-time longer than six months or reaches 1000 hours in a fiscal year. Other elements of the benefit package are outlined in the Temporary/Part-Time Employee Compensation and Benefit Plan.
Additionally, the City of Suisun City will provide Police Officer Trainees with their necessary uniforms and equipment. While academy tuition fees are typically paid by participants upon enrollment in a POST certified training academy, the cost of tuition and fees may be available for any Trainees offered employment prior to enrollment in the academy. Current City of Suisun City employees interested in a career in law enforcement as a sworn Police Officer may take leave from their current permanent full time positions to train in the Police Officer Trainee classification, and will be allowed to maintain their CalPERS contributions, as well as medical benefits if enrolled in the City's group health plan at the time of appointment.
Several POST training academies are currently in session. The Police Department is preparing to visit those academies in search of prospective recruits to fill our open positions.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2023- - Amending the Job Classification of Police Officer Trainee and Authorizing the Police Officer Trainee Program, Compensation, and Benefits.

It is anticipated that an amendment to the SCEA MOU will also be forthcoming.
At this time, staff is recommending the City Council authorize the same compensation adjustments offered to the City's employee bargaining groups, which would do the following if approved by the City Council:
• End the temporary additional pay of $2 per hour for miscellaneous employees and end the $6 per hour temporary additional pay for police and fire safety employees. • Provide base wage increases of $2 per hour for miscellaneous employees, and $6 per hour for police and fire safety employees.
31 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2023- - - Amending and Restating the Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees.

CITY AGENDA ITEM: Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_ Amending the Citywide Salary Schedule to Implement the Second Amendment to the Suisun City Police Officers' Association (SCPOA) MOU 2021-23, the First Amendment to the Suisun City Professional Firefighters' Association (SCPFA) MOU 2022-23, and the Amended and Restated Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees.
FISCAL IMP ACT: As discussed in the staff report authorizing the resolutions for the second amendment to the SCPOA MOU, the first amendment to the SCPFA MOU, and amending the Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees, brought before Council on this day, May 2, 2023, the additional cost can be absorbed in the current fiscal year budget.
STRATEGIC PLAN: Provide Good Governance.
BACKGROUND: Under separate resolutions, the City Council has accepted, approved and adopted the Second Amendment of the Suisun City Police Officers' Association (SCPOA) MOU 2021-23, and the First Amendment of the Suisun City Professional Firefighters' Association (SCPFA) MOU 2022-23, and an amendment to the Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees ending the temporary hourly wage increases that were scheduled to sunset June 30, 2023 and providing base wage increases effective May 12, 2023.
STAFF REPORT: The Citywide Salary Schedule is now being amended to implement the base wage increases, of the Second Amendment of the SCPOA MOU 2021-23, the First Amendment of the SCPFA MOU 2022-23, and the Amended and Restated Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees as follows:
• Provide base wage increases of $2 per hour for miscellaneous unrepresented classifications, • Provide base wage increases of $4 per hour for Dispatch employees represented by the SCPOA, and
• Provide base wage increases of $6 per hour for Police and Fire safety employees represented by the SCPOA and SCPF A.
The City's base wage increases provided herein to the employee's position within the range for employees situated between Step A through Step D, will decrease the differential between steps to less than 5% as identified in the new alpha numerical salary ranges established for these classifications.
The alpha salary range will be eliminated once all affected employees in the alpha numeric range reach top step, or through attrition, whichever comes first. The affected employees in the alpha numeric ranges will be transitioned to the base numerical range once they reach the top step.
New hires starting May 12, 2023, or later, in the classifications affected by the additional hourly wage 63 increases will be hired into the base numerical range for that classification which maintains a 5% differential between each step in the range.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 2023- - - Amending the Citywide Salary Schedule to Implement the Second Amendment to the Suisun City Police Officers' Association (SCPOA) MOU 2021-23, the First Amendment to the Suisun City Professional Firefighters' Association (SCPFA) MOU 2022-23, and the Amended and Restated Schedule of Benefits for Unrepresented Employees.

CITY AGENDA ITEM: Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_: Amending the City of Suisun City Special Event Permit Application.
FISCAL IMP ACT: Adoption of above listed policies will not have any fiscal impact.
STRATEGIC PLAN: Provide Good Governance.
BACKGROUND: The City of Suisun City (City) has worked with a variety of organizations to provide programs, services, facilities, and park enhancements to Suisun City residents. The City is continuously seeking those organizations or individuals that want to give back to the community through volunteerism, financial support, programmatic enhancements, and other community benefits.
The City felt it necessary to create formal policies and procedures in order to ensure that the partnerships are consistent with the City's Strategic Plan and are treated with equity. Business associations, community based organizations, civic groups, and school districts have all been partners with Suisun City in the past. Some partners, although beneficial to the community, have never had a formal agreement that delineates the process, financial considerations, liability concerns, and staff resources used to manage these partnerships.
The City also recognized the need to update the special event permit application and policies to protect the City and the community. A comprehensive application and policy has been designed to help City staff acquire the necessary information from perspective event coordinators.
At the December 15, 2020 City Council meeting, the current Special Event Permit Application was adopted.
STAFF REPORT: It is recommended that the Special Event Application be updated by adding a new section titled Signage on page 13 of the City of Suisun City Special Event Permit Application. This section is highlighted on Attachment 2, Page 13. The newly added section reads, no signage may be attached to trees, existing signage, buildings, light poles, fencing or facilities in any manner. All ground level signs prior to and during an event must meet ADA requirements for access.
The three marketing signs listed below are owned by the City and are for exclusive use by the City of Suisun City's annual events and the Suisun City Historic Waterfront Business Improvement District events. The City and the Suisun City Historic Waterfront Business Improvement District (BID) have had a working relationship for several years. The BID is a recognized partner for their community events.
• Pennsylvania Ave. and Highway 12
• Highway 12 behind the Post Office
• Comer of Sunset Ave. and Railroad Ave.
These signs have been designated as locations to promote both BID and City events and attachment 3, 69 outlines the annual sign schedule that has been created in partnership between the two organizations.

72 WELCOME
The City of Suisun City offers a variety of outdoor facilities that are ideal for special events including community-based festivals, parades, seasonal celebrations, philanthropic events, or even large family gatherings.
Large special events often require City issued permits and have other requirements that ensure the safety of participants and minimize impacts to the surrounding neighborhoods. This application has been developed to help facilitate the planning of your special event. This application is also intended to help you understand the City's special event permitting process and the deadlines for submitting required documents.
The submission of a Special Event Permit Application does not constitute approval of your special event. The application must be submitted a minimum of 60 days prior to your event in order for the City to have adequate time to distribute the application to City Departments for their review and/or approval and to allow you to answer any questions posed by the Special Events Committee.
Uses that require equipment set-up in a park, beyond a typical picnic reservation, bounce house use, or uses that meet the following criteria require a Special Event Permit:
Area Type Criteria
Community Parks SO or more people participating in an organized gathering that is not a typical activity contained within a reservable area such as a picnic or athletic field use*.
Special Use Parks SO or more people depending on the park. (i.e. Old Town Plaza, Requires staff consultation prior to submitting permit.

Special Event Permits will not be approved for events occurring on the same day as Celebrate Suisun, the Fourth of July festivities, or Christmas on the Waterfront, and other traditional City-wide events.
Payment of the special event deposit and application fee is due when the application is initially submitted. The City will review your application and either approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application within 21 days of receipt.
Special Event Permit Applications that are conditionally approved will provide the applicant with specific information of any applicable fees for required services and/or any additional conditions of use. Payment of fees for any additional services required by the City must be made before the City will issue a Special Event Permit. The applicant shall ensure the Permit is available on-site throughout the duration of the entire event.
City of Suisun City - Special Event Permit Application Page 2 of 18 73 If a Special Event Permit is denied, the applicant will receive a full refund of their deposit. The application fee is non-refundable. If a Special Event Permit is not issued, based upon an applicant's failure to comply with required measures within specified deadlines, the applicant forfeits the full application fee, including the deposit.

• pt infraction - $250.00 fine

Notable requirements:
The City does not permit or allow the use of stakes or any in-ground securement for securing fences, structures, bounce houses, etc.

90 AGENDA ITEM NO. 12
AGENDA TRANSMITTAL
MEETING DATE: May 2, 2023
CITY AGENDA ITEM: Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_: Authorizing the City Manager to enter into a contract with Fairfield Suisun Unified School District to Provide Extended Leaming Time Programming.
FISCAL IMPACT: No change to adopted budget but creates revenue in an amount not to exceed $700,000.
STRATEGIC PLAN: Ensure Fiscal Solvency.
BACKGROUND: In February 2023, Fairfield Suisun Unified School District (FSUSD) released a request for proposal intended to select a Provider that had the background, strength, management, and expertise who could provide the District's first through sixth grade students with extended learning programming each school day until 6:00 pm. The Provider selected as a result of this process will provide the services and work cooperatively with the district staff while providing the Services. The term of the contract to provide services from August 16, 2023 - July 26, 2024. The Recreation, Parks, and Marina (RPM) Department submitted a proposal in May 2022 to provide the services requested by FSUSD.
STAFF REPORT: In March 2023, the Recreation, Parks, and Marina Department was notified that their submission was selected to be a service provider to FSUSD. The City of Suisun City Recreation, Parks, and Marina Department service is plan is as follows:
Suisun City RPM's expanded learning programs provide a structured environment for FSUSD students from the time the regular school day ends at their respective school until 6:00pm. During those ~3 hours, the program provides up to 45 minutes of an enrichment activity, 45 minutes of homework time, 45 minutes of a structured physical activity, and 20-30 minutes for a school district provided meal. The facilitation of meaningful, impactful activities during those timeframes is where Suisun City RPM shines.
In order to provide students at our expanded learning programs with the best possible experience, Suisun City RPM emphasizes the following:
• Active and Engaged Learning·
o Our staff plans out activities at our expanded learning programs in accordance with the 'S.A.F.E.' (Sequenced, Active, Focused, Explicit) program design referenced in the Afterschool Alliance's 'Taking a Deeper Dive into Afterschool' report published in 2014.
The acronym outlines that the best activities for students in an afterschool program need to be arranged in a way where students can learn and develop skills, need to be engaging and provide hands-on opportunities, need to provide ample time and resources on instructing students and helping them to develop the appropriate skills, and need to have clear, well defined, attainable learning objectives.
91 o Our activities are intended to promote youth development where they create a sense of belonging within the program and within their communities. For example, students will get the opportunity throughout the year to beautify their campus through artwork they make, to clean up their schools, and to create that sense of school and program pride. Also, students will be given options for their enrichment activities during set days. For example, they will get to be a part of different program clubs where they can learn about subjects such as art, photography, computer coding, entrepreneurship, and others so students can get an idea of their different interests, hobbies, and potential career choices. o Students will also get opportunities for hands-on, project-based learning. They will be broken down into grade groups and participate in weekly Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) activities based off a weekly theme. Throughout the school year they will work on their own STEM projects to present at a year-end showcase for the program.
• Promoting Youth Voice and Leadership:
o Our expanded learning programs will conduct student and parent surveys to highlight our activities and to gather feedback on what they would like to see. From the results of those surveys, the program has implemented different clubs for students, will implement a software to give real-time updates to parents on how students are doing and for parents to directly communicate with staff, and to make various other tweaks to the program to better fit student needs.
0 The first 3-5 minutes of our expanded learning programs are dedicated to allowing students to unwind and speak with their friends and with staff before beginning the structured day.
Students are encouraged after each activity to respectfully provide feedback and are encouraged to give suggestions to staff on different projects they would like to work on. o There is a dedicated 'club day' within our expanded learning programs, where all students can participate in different clubs that peak their interests. Also, as students are broken down into grade groups during most activities, younger students will be able to communicate their interests with staff. Older students in the program will have a role in mentoring the younger children through different job assignments at the program, and they will have staff-led workshops on real-world issues such as homelessness, current world events, social justice, and tobacco prevention.
• Staff Development:
o All expanded learning staff will be required to meet the minimum requirements of an instructional aide for FSUSD schools to work at the program. Staff will also be required to possess an 'Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/ AED' certification through the American Red Cross so that they are prepared in a medical emergency. Staff have and will continue to undergo trainings from Global Kindness Initiative (GK.I) that focus on Social-Emotional Leaming, Common Core-aligned curriculum design, Youth Development, and Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS) through Restorative Frameworks and Practices.
These trainings from GK.I, as well as other planned trainings, will help staff to promote providing a safe and nurturing environment at our expanded learning programs. Staff also develop anti-bullying curriculum with resources from PACER's National Bullying Prevention Center.
o Supervising and Coordinating staff will also attend relevant trainings and events, including 92 the annual Best Out of School Time (BOOST) Conference, network meetings and trainings provided by local County Offices of Education (including Solano and Alameda), fireside chats with the Expanded Leaming Division of the CA Department of Education, trainings from California After School Network, statewide and regional trainings from the California Parks and Recreation Society (CPRS), and web-based seminars from the National Recreation and Park Association (NRPA) in order to stay current on the latest trends and concerns in the world of expanded learning.
• Supporting Student Leaming Based on Need:
o At each day of our expanded learning programs, there is a designated time within the day's structure for homework. During that time, staff are available to students to provide homework support. Staff actively look to ensure students utilize that timeframe and are on task - if a student does not have homework, they are given an appropriate task or activity to respect those students that do.
o An important aspect of our expanded learning program is our staff creating and maintaining relationships with parents and with teachers. This includes expanded learning staff initiating regular conversations with both parents and teachers to see how we can effectively support a student's success in the regular school day. This way, the dialogue is there if a student is struggling with homework, with issues at home, or is struggling with something personally. The relationship is built with that parent, teacher, and/or school staff so that our expanded learning staff is aware of any issues and can provide support as needed to the best of their abilities. Suisun City RPM is dedicated to working with all parties necessary so that students get the support they need to succeed.

MEETING DATE: May 2, 2023
CITY AGENDA ITEM: Public Hearing and Other Proceedings Related to Annexation No. 16 to Community Facilities District No. 2 (Municipal Services), for the Marina Village Apartments Project:
a. Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_: Submitting Annexation of Territory and Levy of Special Taxes to Qualified Electors; and
b. Council Adoption of Resolution No. 2023-_: Declaring Results of Special Annexation Election, Determining Validity of Prior Proceedings, and Directing Recording of Amended Notice of Special Tax Lien; and
c. Council Introduction and Waive Reading of Ordinance No. _: An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Suisun City Levying Special Tax Within City of Suisun City Community Facilities District No. 2 (Municipal Services), Including Certain Annexation Territory.
FISCAL IMP ACT: There would be an impact to the General Fund from this item. Once annexed into CFD#2, Marina Village Apartments will begin to contribute funds towards Safety Services such as police and fire.
