APPROVAL OF MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE CIW OF TEHACHAPI AND
THE TEHACHAPI POTICE OFFICERS ASSOCIATION
BACKGROUND
The City of Tehachapi and the Tehachapi Police Officers Association have negotiated terms for a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to ensure fair compensation and benefits for our police officers while maintaining fiscal responsibility for the City. The proposed MOU includes salary increases, differential pay adjustments, and a new longevity pay structure to support retention and acknowledge tenure with the department. ln 2022, voters in the City of Tehachapi supported the passage of Measure 'S' a one-cent sales tax increase with priorities centered around supporting local public safety including the Tehachapi Police Department. The MOU proposed tonight speaks to that priority with a new agreement to ensure continued support of our men and women in uniform.
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED MOU
The last MOU between the Cig and TPOA was signed in 2019 and was a five-year agreement. Last year, negotiations stalled due to staff promotions within the Tehachapi Police Department and a new bargaining team with TPOA. ln a good faith gesture, the City continued to supply the TPOA with their cost-of-living adjustments along with a few other minor provisions requested for operational efficiency.
Since then, staff and members of the TPOA bargaining team were able to have a pair of efficient meetings to discuss common ground and proposals that were presented by both sides. City staff would like to thank the bargaining unit from TPOA for their professionalism and willingness to negotiate.
Key provisions of the MOU include:
. Term Length: Three-year agreement covering fiscalyears 2025-2028. . Salary Adjustments:
o A 5% salary increase in fiscal year 2025-26-
o A 5% salary increase in fiscal year 2026-27, or a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), whichever is higher o A 5olo salary increase in fiscal year 2027-28, or a COLA, whichever is higher.
Night Shift Differential Pay:
o An additional $1.00 per hour for officers working night shifts from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM Longevity Pay:
Officers who meet eligibility requirements will receive:
$2,500 after five years of service.
$5,000 after ten years of service.
$7,500 after fifteen years of service
$10,000 after twenty years of service.
To qualify, officers must be in good standing with the department, exhibited by a satisfactory or above performance evaluation in the qualifying year to receive the retention bonus. No retroactive payments, payments are made at the time-of-service qualification following the effective date. To qualify as a year of service, the employee must have worked at least 1,040 regular hours, including hours designated by the Chief of Police, in the year preceding. Failure to qualify will delay payment of the bonus until hours worked are satisfied. The above amounts are flat onetime payments paid following their anniversary date.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed salary increases, night shift differential, and longevity pay structure will have budgetary impacts on the City's General Fund. However, staff have reviewed the financial projections and determined that these adjustments are sustainable within expected revenues. The proposed agreement is designed to fairly compensate our officers while ensuring financial stability for the City.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this MOU will provide well-deserved benefits to the Tehachapi Police Officers Association members, supporting retention and morale within the department.
Staff recommends the adoption of the MOU between the City of Tehachapi and the Tehachapi Police Officers Association for the three-year term covering flscal years 2025-2028, authorize the Mayor and City Manager to sign and or amend pending review by CaIPERS.

MEETING DATE: JUNE 2,2025 AGENDA SECTION: FINANCE DIRECTOR TO HONORABLE MAYOR POGON-CORD AND COUNC!L MEMBERS
FROM: HAMED JONES, FINANCE DIRECTOR
DATE: MAY 27,2025
SUBJECT: APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 202sl26
BACKGROUND
ln November L979, the voters of the State of California approved Proposition 4, commonly known as the "appropriations limit" or "Gann limit". The proposition created Article Xlll B of the State Constitution, a law that requires state and local governments to adopt an annual appropriations limit. The appropriations limit establishes a limit on the proceeds of taxes that may be appropriated for spending in a given fiscalyear. ln June 1990, Proposition 111was passed to modify Proposition 4. Two of the provisions included in Proposition 111 were to provide for an option for local governments to select from adjustment factors that would allow them to be more responsive to local growth and to require an annual review of the appropriations limit calculations. The adjustment factors can be based on either the growth in California per capital income (Per Capita lncome) or the growth in non-residential assessed valuation due to new construction within the City (New Construction Rate). The adjustment factor for population can be based on either a population growth rate in Tehachapi or Kern County.
The limit is based on actual appropriations from fiscalyear f978179 and it is increased each year by population and economic growth factors. The calculation includes only revenues that are classified as proceeds from taxes and allows for certain exclusions including transfers, capital outlays, payment for debt services, appropriations supported by increased gas taxes, and appropriations required to comply with mandates of the courts or federal government, such as FLSA overtime or payments of FICA/Medicare Tax.
When the limit is exceeded, Proposition 4 requires the surplus to be returned to taxpayers within two years.
Appropriations in the two-year period can be averaged before becoming subject to excess revenue provisions of the Gann limit.
The appropriations limit calculation for fiscal year 2025/26 is derived from the percentage change in California Per Capita Personal lncome and the population rate change in Kern County. The percentage change in Per Capita lncome was 6.44% and the population rate change for Kern County was 0.74o/o.
The calculated appropriations limit for the City of Tehachapi for Fiscal Year 2025126 is S19,098,802.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact unless appropriations from tax proceeds exceed the limit
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the council adopt the resolution establishing an appropriations limit for fiscal year 2O25/26.
