Project Funding Notes

1. The Decoto Road Complete Streets project is adjacent to the I-880/Decoto Interchange Modernization project. Funding for this corridor is prioritized under both Alameda County ($11.2 million) and Competitive Funding ($7 million) for a total of $18.2 million. Both projects consist of continuous active transportation and bus priority improvements. The intent of funding from both Alameda and Competitive categories is to prioritize the Decoto Road Complete Streets project and pursue a full funding plan that would deliver both active transportation and transit priority elements for that project. However, if alternate funding for the Decoto Road Complete Streets project is found, RM3 allocations may be recommended for the I-880/ Decoto Interchange Modernization project so that the continuous active transportation and bus priority improvements may be made throughout this corridor.

2. The Quarry Lakes Parkway project is prioritized under both Alameda County ($18.3 million) and BATA Funding ($6.7 million) for a total of $25 million.

3. The US 101/SR 84 Interchange Improvement project is prioritized under San Mateo County ($27.5 million), BATA ($10 million), and Competitive ($10.5 million) for a total of $48 million.

Quarry Lakes Parkway project will construct a new four (4) lane multimodal, local street with a landscape median, buffer Class II bike lanes and a separated Class I continuous multi-use trail creating a gateway to Quarry Lakes Regional Park in Fremont and improving safe access for all modes to the Union City BART Station for both Union City and Fremont residents The project has been redesigned to meet current multimodal goals and Complete Streets guidelines. The proposed Quarry Lakes will provide a provide a critical secondary route & safe access to the Union City BART Station, as the project will parallel Decoto Road (from Mission Blvd (SR 238) in Union City to Paseo Padre in Fremont) and when completed is expected to significantly improve transit operations and travel time for Dumbarton Express, AC Transit and UC Transit service (Dumbarton Forward) along the Decoto Road/Dumbarton Corridor.

Regional Measure 3 Initial Project Report

Decoto Road, a known High Injury Network (HIN) in the vicinity of the Union City BART Station between Alvarado-Niles Road and 7th Street includes two (2) existing active at-grade railroad crossings. This corridor carries multiple transit services (AC Transit, Dumbarton Express and UC Transit) and delays occur due to the requirements for buses to stop before proceeding across the tracks, in addition to the delays due to the railroad safety gates going down on the Niles Subdivision because of the frequent daily Amtrak/Capitol Corridor rail service and daily freight trains. Quarry Lakes Parkway requires three (3) new grade-separated structures (underpass) under the two (2) active railroad tracks and the BART trackway. When the grade separated roadway segment is completed, UC Transit and Dumbarton Express will have a new transit route (avoiding the two atgrade railroad crossings) to Union City BART Station from the City’s Maintenance Facility located on Quarry Lakes Parkway/7th Street where these transit providers are housed and maintained.

The proposed buffered bikeway in the corridor has been designed to be converted to a transit priority (or shared with bikes) lane in the future if needed.

Phase 1, 7th Street Extension will construct Quarry Lakes Parkway from 7th Street to Mission Boulevard and will support the planned 1,000 housing units currently in construction on 7 th/Decoto
Road. This phase will move the existing 7th street roadway to align with the final corridor, with the new alignment impacting the existing Line M Flood Control Channel and requiring the channel to be realigned as well as the relocation of existing utilities. The QLP corridor alignment also impacts the City’s Corp Yard that fronts 7
th Street. The City Corp yard will be reconfigured under a separate locally funded project. There are two (2) wetland areas (the “2c” and “New” basins) that are part of the Line M Flood Control system and the realignment modifications to that system impact the two (2) basins and result in the requirement of the construction of mitigation measures.

Phase 2, the Gateway Site will construct Quarry Lakes Parkway from Old Alameda Creek to Alvarado-Niles Road and realign existing Quarry Lakes Drive, moving the road closer to Old Alameda Creek for maximizing the development site on the former Caltrans property. Phase 2 will treat all the new storm water runoff from the new roadway and requires the re-evaluation and redesign of the water quality treatment basin, the hydromodification basin and the new outfall structure(s) into Old Alameda Creek. The city/consultant is working with RWQCB on onsite wetland mitigation measures opportunities within Old Alameda Creek. This segment when completed, could also support the new housing on the Gateway site (Caltrans LATIP site). The City scheduling assumptions include this as the first phase that is constructed.

Phase 3, the Niles Sub Grade Separation and 11th Street extension will construct Quarry Lakes Parkway from 7th Street to 11th Street providing a new secondary access to the 100-acre Station District Area site along 11th Street and the main access to the future intercity rail station and layover facility. Phase 3 also includes the proposed Niles Sub Grade Separation Structure (underpass) along with the required railroad shoofly during construction of the bridge structure.

The extension of 11th Street from Decoto Road to new Quarry Lakes Parkway is critical for completing the required local circulation serving existing and planned development around the Union City BART station Priority Development Area that will support 2,000 new housing units.

Phase 4, the BART and Oakland Subdivision Grade Separations (not included in this IPR) will be designed to accommodate the future intercity rail service (ACE Station) along the Oakland Subdivision railroad trackway next to the BART Station, as proposed by Southern Alameda County Integrated Rail Project. Phase 4 will construct Quarry Lakes Parkway from Alvarado-Niles Road to 11th Street, completing the Quarry Lakes Parkway multimodal corridor within Union City.

The right of way for the entire Quarry Lakes Parkway multimodal corridor is publicly owned by Union City, Fremont and Alameda County Water District and when this roadway is completed, it will connect the various levels of affordability and market-rate housing that is being developed in the area with attractive alternative modes of travel (walk, bike or transit) for future residents. Union City is working with SJRRC on the delivery of this project (this phase is proposed to request RM3 funds in the future).

The future Phase 5, the Paseo Padre Connection will construct Quarry Lakes Parkway from Paseo Padre Parkway in Fremont to Old Alameda Creek in Union City. Phase 5 when completed, will provide an alternative transportation corridor parallel to Decoto Road/Dumbarton Corridor for local residents and businesses and will significantly improve travel time and transit operations along the Dumbarton / Decoto Corridor for AC Transit, Dumbarton Express, Tech Shuttles and UC Transit. c. Impediments to Project Completion
The 2009 East West Connector (renamed Decoto Complete Streets/Quarry Lakes Parkway) EIR identified environmental mitigation measures including regulatory agency permits (for water quality treatment, roadway drainage (hydromod), the Line M channel relocation, new outfall structure(s) in Alameda Creek and wetland mitigation). To maximize land-use opportunities and as part of the Complete Streets design features added to the project, these mitigation measures needed to be reviewed, updated and have been recently evaluated as part of consultation with regulatory and resource agencies with their initial concurrence. The city also continues coordination with Union Pacific Railroad and BART on the grade separation structures and shoofly design updates before the preparation of Construction and Maintenance Agreements (required for Construction). Another known risk is hazardous material within the railroad right of ways and City will continue to coordinate with DTSC (Department of Toxic Waste and Substance). d. Risk Management (describe risk management process for project budget and schedule, levels of contingency and how they were determined, and risk assessment tools used) Project risks include known engineering design complexities, construction challenges, required permits from regulatory agencies, Union Pacific Railroad and BART and continued coordination with other cities, transit agencies, funding agencies, public, etc. A Project Risk Register has been prepared to identify High, Medium and Low risk items and related potential project impacts to design, schedule, costs and construction. With the limited project funding, the City will continue to City Council/RSA Agenda 256 Tuesday, January 14, 2025

Agenda Item
DATE: 1/14/2025
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITYCOUNCIL
FROM: KRISTOPHER J. KOKOTAYLO, CITYATTORNEY
SUBJECT: ADOPT ARESOLUTION APPROVINGAN EXCEPTION TO THE 180-DAY

WAITING PERIOD FOR POST-RETIREMENT EMPLOYMENT AND APPROVING

AN EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WITH RETIRED ANNUITANT CORINAHAHN

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution and employment agreement which will allow the City to hire retired annuitant Corina Hahn on a limited and temporary basis to perform services that require specialized skills to also assist with the transfer of information related to coordinating reuse of Historical Museum building; coordinating standing BART pillar mural project including engaging consultant and agency coordination with BART; launching the Parks and Recreation Master Plan; providing training regarding grant reporting and management; assisting in budget development for department for biennial budget for FY 2025-2026 and FY2026-2027; facilitating transition of department leadership including newly hired management staff; and completing other projects as assigned.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This agenda item is not directly related to the Strategic Plan.

BACKGROUND
On December 27, 2024, Corina Hahn (Hahn), Community & Recreation Services Director, retired from the City of Union City's workforce, thus becoming a CalPERS retired annuitant. Hahn possesses specialized skills needed to perform certain work that the City must carry out as information is transferred to current and future employees. Hahn also possesses knowledge that will need to be documented and transferred to other staff related to coordinating reuse of Historical Museum building; coordinating standing BART pillar mural project including engaging consultant and agency coordination with BART; launching the Parks and Recreation Master Plan; providing training regarding grant reporting and management; assisting in budget development for department for biennial budget for FY2025-2026 and FY2026-2027; facilitating transition of department leadership including newly hired management staff; and completing other projects as assigned.

Government Code Section 7522.56(f) requires a 180-day waiting period before a retired annuitant can be employed by a CalPERS agency unless the nature of the employment meets one of the exceptions and is approved via resolution by the governing body. In this case, the nature of Hahn's recommended appointment will be as an extra help retired annuitant. She will assist staff as needed to coordinate reuse of Historical Museum building; coordinate standing BART pillar mural project including engaging consultant and agency coordination with BART; launch the Parks and Recreation Master Plan; provide training regarding grant reporting and management; assist in budget development for department for biennial budget for FY2025-2026 and FY2026-2027; facilitate transition of department leadership including newly hired management staff; other projects as assigned.

City Council/RSA Agenda 270 Tuesday, January 14, 2025
Hahn possesses the specialized skills needed to perform this work and this appointment qualifies for an exception under Government Code section 7522.56(f). As a CalPERS extra help retired annuitant, she will qualify for this exemption based on her role performing work of limited duration (no more than 960 hours per fiscal year) including the elimination of backlogs, limited-term special project work, and/or work in excess of what regular permanent staff can do. In this instance, this limited term special project relates to coordinating reuse of Historical Museum building; coordinating standing BART pillar mural project including engaging consultant and agency coordination with BART; launching the Parks and Recreation Master Plan; providing training regarding grant reporting and management; assisting in budget development for department for biennial budget for FY2025-2026 and FY2026-2027; facilitating transition of department leadership including newly hired management staff; and completing other projects as assigned for which Hahn is uniquely qualified from her years of experience.

DISCUSSION
In order for the City Council to approve the proposed Employment Agreement with Hahn, the City Council must first adopt a Resolution making specific findings related to hiring a retired annuitant subject to CalPERS regulations contained in Government Code Section 21224. The terms of the Employment Agreement state that the term is of limited duration throughAugust 1, 2025, and that the hourly rate is $113.19 per hour. Such terms are in conformance with CalPERS regulations.

FISCAL IMPACT
The costs related to the adoption of this Resolution and the approval of this Employment Agreement will be covered by salary savings generated by the vacant Community & Recreation Services Director position.

Staff anticipates utilizing Hahn's services for approximately 12 weeks for an average of 25 hours per week for a cost of approximately $34,500.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) adopt a Resolution approving an exception to the 180-day waiting period for post-retirement employment and 2) approve an Employment Agreement with retired annuitant Corina Hahn to serve as an Extra Help, Community & Recreation Services Department.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLAN FOR UNREPRESENTED EMPLOYEES AND APPROVINGAN AMENDMENT TO THE CITY’S SALARYSCHEDULE IN CONFORMANCE WITH CALIFORNIACODE OF REGULATIONS, TITLE 2, SECTION 570.5

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff recommends that the City Council approve an amendment to the City’s Compensation and Benefits Plan for Unrepresented Employees (the “Plan”) and a concurrent amendment to the City’s Salary Schedule, effective the first full pay period after January 1, 2025. Employees subject to the Plan include Department Heads, Deputy Police Chief, Management, Non-Management, Police Cadet and Police Officer Trainee positions.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action supports Strategy 8 of Goal B, Governance and Organization Effectiveness, by ensuring salaries are competitive in order to recruit, attract and retain talented employees.

BACKGROUND
The unrepresented Department Head positions subject to the Plan include: Assistant City Manager/Chief Financial Officer, Deputy City Manager, Community & Recreation Services Director, Economic & Development Director, Finance Director, Human Resources Director, Information Technology Director, and the Public Works Director.

The unrepresented Non-Management positions subject to the Plan include:

Administrative Specialist-Confidential, Human Resources Technician, Police Cadet and Police Officer Trainee.

The proposed resolution provides that any revisions will not include any adjustment to the salary or benefits for the City Manager, who is subject to a separate employment agreement and will be considered separately.

Additionally, the Police Chief is subject to a separate employment agreement that identifies applicable benefits and compensation for that position.

The changes to the Plan seek to provide clarification and consistency among benefit offerings for all employees citywide. In addition, the changes eliminate compaction and provide growth opportunities within the positions.

Health and Welfare
- Provides a City contribution of $2,125 (increased from $2,000) per month toward medical, dental, and vision monthly premiums. Increases cash in lieu of health plan coverage pay to $350.00 per month, increased from $300 per month, to be consistent with all other bargaining units.

Special Assignment Pay
- Establishes special assignment pay provisions consistent with other positions within the City.

Miscellaneous Revisions
- Includes other miscellaneous revisions for non-substantive clean-up.

FROM: KRISTOPHER J. KOKOTAYLO, CITYATTORNEY
SUBJECT: ADOPT ARESOLUTION APPROVINGAN AMENDMENT TO THE EMPLOYMENT

AGREEMENT WITH JARED RINETTI TO SERVE AS POLICE CHIEF AND

APPROVINGAN AMENDMENT TO THE CITY'S SALARYSCHEDULE IN
CONFORMANCE WITH CALIFORNIACODE OF REGULATIONS, TITLE 2, SECTION 570.5

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving an Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement with Police Chief, Jared Rinetti. Chief Jared Rinetti (“Chief Rinetti”) took office as on December 15, 2018. Rinetti currently receives benefits pursuant to terms and conditions approved by the City Council.

The City has approved memoranda of understanding with both the Union City Police Officers’ Association and the Union City Police Management Association (the “Police Groups”) which provide for revised terms of compensation and benefits.

Staff now recommends that the City Council approve an amendment to the existing employment agreement with Chief Rinetti to provide commensurate benefits with the Police Groups in order to ensure equity and avoid compaction.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action supports Strategy 8 of Goal B, Governance and Organization Effectiveness, by ensuring salaries are competitive in order to retain talented staff and to provide an attractive recruiting environment.

BACKGROUND
On February 22, 2022, the City entered into an at will Employment Agreement with Chief Rinetti to serve as a sworn police officer in the classification of Police Chief of the City of Union City, California (the “Employment Agreement”). Section IV of the Employment Agreement indicated that Chief Rinetti would receive a pay increase of 3% on the first full pay periods following January 1, 2023 and January 1, 2024 and that “Every January thereafter, the City Council will consider potential cost of living increases for [Chief Rinetti] and associated adjustments to the publicly available salary schedule.” Consistent with the Employment Agreement, Amendment No. 1 would amend the existing Employment Agreement to provide for cost of living increases and associated adjustments consistent with the salary adjustments provided to the Police Groups.

City Council/RSA Agenda 303 Tuesday, January 14, 2025

DISCUSSION
The proposed Resolution authorizes the Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement and authorizes amendments to the publicly available salary schedule for the Police Chief position as outlined below.

Chief Rinetti’s current base salary is of $25,902 per month and he is currently at step 5 (the top step) of the City’s current salary schedule for the Police Chief position. Effective the first full pay period following January 1, 2025, Chief Rinetti’s base salary would be adjusted to $27,715 pursuant to Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement and the proposed revised salary schedule. Additionally, Chief Rinetti would be moved to step 3 on the proposed revised salary schedule which would provide for 4% increases between salary steps. Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement would provide that the salary schedule for the Police Chief would increase by 3% for cost of living the first full pay period after January 1, 2026 and January 1, 2027, consistent with the Police Groups.

The proposed Resolution authorizes Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement as outlined above with all other provisions remaining unchanged. The proposed Resolution also approves the revisions to the salary schedule for Police Chief consistent with California regulations.

FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of the Police Chief’s salary and benefits is annually included in the City’s budget. The additional costs related to this proposed action total $35,649.71 annually. The costs associated with the changes in salary and benefits included in this amended employment agreement will be incorporated in the City’s budget for FY 2026-2027 and 2027-2028.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving Amendment No. 1 to the Employment Agreement with Chief Rinetti and an amendment to the City’s salary schedule.
