RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve an agreement with Keenan and Associates for Benefit Broker Services and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's policy to be fiscally responsible in providing fair and equitable benefits to its employees.

BACKGROUND
The City has maintained an agreement with Keenan & Associates, a Third-Party Administrator (TPA) for Benefit Broker Services since 2016. The agreement expired on December 31,2023. The renewal agreement is for a one-year period and included in the agreement is an option for the City to elect to extend the agreement for two (2), one(1) year terms with a three percent(3%)increase for each year.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Keenan&Associates negotiates on behalf of the City,with benefit providers for health care benefits provided to City employees. These services include,but are not limited to,assisting the City in administering all group insurance plans; responding to questions from and providing information to staff; researching and advising the City of any new developments in the law and employee benefit programs on an ongoing basis; reviewing claims experience, claim service and claim administration to ensure maximum benefit to the City;and representing the City in all negotiations with providers on all issues including those related to premiums, benefit levels, plan design, and special terms and conditions.

The term of the renewal is for January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, with options for two (2) one (1) year extensions. The amendment calls for a 3% increase, which is a 2% decrease from Keenan's last year's rates. The rates for each year should the City exercise the right for each of the extensions would be:
• January 1,2024-December 31,2024: $71,487.00
• January 1,2025—December 31,2025: $73,631.61
• January 1,2026-December 31,2026: $75,840.56

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The City's General Fund Reserve Policy (Reserve Policy) was originally adopted on June 14, 2021, and has been updated annually thereafter in conjunction with the adoption of the annual budget. The Reserve Policy lays out a methodology for allocating any year-end operating surplus to six established reserves.

The FY 22/23 ACFR reflects a$6,371,457 year-end operating surplus.

The attached resolution authorizes transfers to take place in conjunction with the Reserve Policy:
• A transfer of$1,400,000 to the Economic Uncertainty Reserve, as 22.5% of the General Fund operating expenditures has grown with the adjustments in the City's FY 23/24 Mid-Year Budget • 5%of the remaining balance to be transferred to the General Plan Update Reserve($248,573) • 15% of the remaining balance to be transferred to the Building Replacement and Maintenance Reserve ($745,719)

GENERAL FUND RESERVE POLICY
I. GENERAL POLICY/ PURPOSE
The City of Upland provides a wide range of services that impact the public safety and the quality of life of its residents and community members every day. Maintaining adequate reserves is an essential part of sound financial management. The purpose of this policy is to secure the City's financial stability during a changing environment and establish a procedure for the allocation of unrestricted fund balance in the General Fund into adequate committed reserves.

II. PERIODIC REVIEW AND REPORTING
This General Fund Reserve Policy and the appropriate level of reserves are to be reviewed and approved by City Council at least every year during the annual budget process. The Administrative Services Department will continue to monitor reserve and investment balances year-round to maintain healthy reserve levels.

The status of the General Fund Reserve shall be analyzed and estimated by the Administrative Services Department using departmental year-end estimates and reported with the adoption of each year's budget. The actual General Fund Reserve balances shall be reported to the City Council as adjustments to the balances occur, but not less than annually in the agenda report accepting the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report(ACFR).

II1. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS
The following committed reserves are designated by the City in the event of unforeseen expenditures as well as to establish funding for anticipated future expenditures that require ongoing funding for significant future outlays. These committed balances are established by a resolution of the City Council and cannot be changed except by a similar subsequent City Council action. The committed reserves are presented as follows:

A. Economic Uncertainty Reserve
• Purpose: These funds are committed to mitigate annual budget revenue shortfalls as a protection from a fluctuating economy, including financial hardship or downturns in the economy and/or Council-approved expenditures in excess of revenues. • Target Level: The City's target will be 22.5% (rounded to the next $100,000) of the General Fund operating expenditures, exceeding the recommendation of the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA).
• Events or Conditions Prompting Its Use: This reserve may be utilized as needed to pay outstanding operating expenditures due to budgeted revenue shortfalls. Use shall be prompted by:
o A 5%or greater decrease in property or sales taxes
o Reductions in revenue due to actions by the state/federal government B. Emergency Disaster Contingency Reserve
• Purpose: These funds are committed to mitigate costs of unforeseeable emergencies, such as natural disasters, catastrophic events, or any situation requiring the declaration of an emergency as defined by Upland Municipal Code Section 2.20. • Target Level: $1,000,000.

o PARS Pension Stabilization Fund Trust: 40% (45% once Reserve C is fully funded) of any year-end operating surplus (after Reserves A and B are fully funded) will be deposited in this reserve.
o OPEB Trust: 5% of any year-end operating surplus (after Reserves A and B are fully funded)will be deposited in this reserve.
• Events or Conditions Prompting Its Use: The City Council may decide as part of its annual or mid-year budget process to expend some or all of the accumulated Pension Stabilization Reserve Fund balance to pay down accrued unfunded pension or OPEB liability.

F. Infrastructure Improvement Reserve

GENERAL FUND RESERVE POLICY
IV. Replenishment of Unreserved Fund Balance
At the end of the year,the Administrative Services Department reports on the audited year-end budgetary fiscal results.

Allocation of any year-end operating surplus will be distributed throughout the five established reserves as follows:
• Reserves A and B have target levels and are prioritized for replenishment in the order they are listed should any reserve be employed or if Reserve A increased as a result of growth in the City's annual operating budget.

• Once reserves A and B attain full funding, the remaining year-end operating surplus shall be distributed to the following reserves:
o 5%to the General Plan Update Reserve, until fully funded (Reserve C) o 15%to the Building Replacement and Maintenance Reserve (Reserve D) o 45%(50%once Reserve C is fully funded)to the Pension Stabilization Reserve (Reserve E) o 30%to the Infrastructure Improvement Reserve (Reserve F)

SUBJECT: SINGLE AUDIT REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30,2023 RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council receive and file the Single Audit Report on Federal Award Programs for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30,2023.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal to manage the City's resources in a fiscally responsible manner.

BACKGROUND
Each year Finance is responsible for the preparation and publication of the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report(ACFR) following an independent audit. The ACFR presents a summary of financial position and financial transactions for a fiscal year. A municipality is also subject to a Single Audit. Any City receiving federal recipient award funding that has expended$750,000 in any fiscal year is subject to a Single Audit. The City of Upland expended over$750,000 during FY 2022/23 and was subject to the Single Audit requirement.

On March 11,2023,the City Council received and filed the ACFR and related reports for the fiscal year ended June 30,2023.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The firm of Van Lant&Fankhanel,LLP,Certified Public Accountants(VLF),has conducted an independent audit of the financial statements of the City of Upland for the fiscal year ended June 30,2023 as received and filed by the City Council on March 11,2023. A Single Audit includes a listing of all federal expenditures the City or its subrecipients spent during 2022/23 fiscal year. VLF reviewed those expenditures and the internal controls surrounding them and issued two reports that express opinions in conjunction with the audit and Single Audit.

The first opinion refers to the audit of the City's financial statements and it indicates that the auditors discovered no deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting and compliance and other matters that they consider to be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. The second opinion refers to the audit of the Single Audit and it indicates that the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is fairly stated and that in their review of each major federal program they found no material noncompliance and no deficiencies in internal control over compliance that they consider to be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is the receive and file of a financial report and is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project"and thus is exempt.

FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

Independent Auditor's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards City Council
City of Upland
Upland, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, business-type activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Upland (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 31, 2024.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. 1C1- 4,t YelMA4071-11 lif

Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program; Report on Internal Control Over Compliance; and Report on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by Uniform Guidance City Council
City of Upland
Upland, California
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the City of Upland's compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City's major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2023. The City's major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.

In our opinion, the City of Upland, complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2023.

Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.

We are required to be independent of the City of Upland and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City's compliance with the requirements referred to above.

Responsibilities of Management for Compliance
Management is responsible for compliance with requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the City's federal programs.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on City's compliance based on our audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about City's compliance with the requirements of each major federal program as a whole.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, we:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding City's compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. • Obtain an understanding of City's internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City's internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit.

Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal 4 Page 40 of 78

program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of the City of Upland, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated January 31, 2024, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.

Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the schedule of expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. 1‘ -1 r iweithd , 1If

DATE: April 8,2024

FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:BRADEN YU,PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR

HARRY PARR,ASSISTANT ENGINEER
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH J&S STRIPING INC.FOR ON-CALL SIGNAGE AND STRIPING INSTALLATION RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council approve a Maintenance Services Agreement with J& S Striping Company, Inc. for On-Call Signage and Striping Installation in an amount not to exceed$150,000 over a three-year term; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement and any extensions or amendments under his authority.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of providing reliable, timely, and efficient traffic engineering services for the citizens of the City.

BACKGROUND
On June 12,2023,the City Council adopted the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Annual Budget which allocated$50,000 from the General Fund to address traffic safety issues by the Land Development and Transportation Division.

The scope of work includes on-call services for installation of new signs, striping,and traffic control devices at times when the Traffic Division identifies a need for these services to improve traffic safety. The contract amount is not to exceed$50,000 per year,for three years.

On February 12,2024,the City Council rejected the single bid that was received for Bid No.24-001 and directed staff to re-advertise the project.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
As directed,staff modified the project specifications and re-advertised the project under Bid No.24-002,with the goal of attracting more bidders and getting the best possible value for the City's resources.

A Notice Inviting Bids(NIB)was advertised in the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin on February 19,2024 and February 26, 2024 in accordance with the California Public Contract Code (Section 20164). It was also listed on the City's website and distributed to several local public works contractors.

On March 13,2024,the City received and opened six bids for the project,under Bid No.2024-002(see"Bid Result" Attachment).

It should be noted that because this is an on-call contract,with no certain quantities for any items,staff examined the unit pricing for each individual line item and other factors as described in the proposal to determine the lowest bidder.

The City reviewed all six bid packages and with a majority of the 37-line items being lower than the other bidders, staff confirmed that J&S Striping was determined to be the lowest responsive bidder.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is a maintenance contract for sign and striping installation and is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project"and thus is exempt.

Page 48 of 78 ends

FISCAL IMPACTS
The annual contract amount of$50,000 was allocated to the Land Development and Transportation Division budget for the current fiscal year in account number 101 5302 5258. If approved,the same amount will also be budgeted for fiscal years 25/26 and 26/27.

ALTERNATIVES

1. Reject all bids and direct staff to re-advertise the project. Due to a successful and competitive bid process, this alternative is not recommended.

2. Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA:Not a project.

EXHIBIT A

SCOPE OF SERVICES
The full scope of services is detailed in the "Request For Bids" dated December 12, 2023 and is outlined as follows:

From time to time, the successful bidder will be contacted by City Traffic Engineering staff and asked to install or modify signage and striping at multiple locations throughout the City of Upland. The contractor will be given several "Installation Diagrams" detailing the layout and specifications of the new signage and/or striping to be installed, including the removal of any existing signs, markings or striping.

Each batch of work to be performed will be referred to as a Task Order.

The following will be the anticipated procedures for the Task Order for the work to be performed. City staff will work with the selected contractor to mutually agree on the final procedures.
a. The selected contractor shall designate a contact person on behalf of the contractor to coordinate with city staff on work assignments. The work assignments will be issued as Task Order (TO).
b. After city staff issue a Task Order (TO), the contractor will acknowledge the receipt of the TO within two working days and provide their availability to perform the work.
c. It is the responsibility of the contractor to contact city staff to clarify or answer any questions the contractor may have on the Installation Drawings.

Contacts may be made by emails or phone calls.
d. If deemed necessary, the contractor may request a field review with city staff.

Such request may be made prior to the completion of the cost estimate for the TO. The cost for the field review will be considered included in the unit prices for the TO and no extra payments will be made to the contractor. e. The contractor will provide an itemized cost estimate within three (3) working days after the acknowledgement of the receipt of the TO. The cost estimate shall be based on the unit costs provided in the bids. Occasionally, certain items will not be specifically established in the fee schedule. For those items, the contractor will submit actual costs and be allowed a set mark-up as established in the basic contract.
f. Upon request, the Contractor or his representative will walk the project with the City representative, or the traffic engineer, for the purpose of determining compliance with the Specifications or to discuss required work. The Contractor's representative shall be authorized to sign documents and effect changes to the job.
g. After the receipt of the cost estimate, city staff will approve/disapprove the cost estimate within 3 working days. Each Task Order shall be valued at no less than $2,500. If the cost estimate is less than $2500, then the City may either add additional work to the Task Order, or agree to the minimum value of $2500.

EXHIBIT A

Page 67 of 78 ends

h. If the cost estimate is approved, the TO will then be scheduled by mutual agreement and be completed within the time agreed upon for each specific item of work.
i. Failure to promptly respond or to complete the work in a timely manner shall give cause for termination of this agreement at the City's sole discretion. j. The contractor will be required to cat-track any striping, mark the locations of pavement markings and signs, and confirm with city staff prior to installation.

The cost for the field review will be considered included in the unit prices for the cost estimate for the TO and no extra payments will be made to the contractor.
k. At the completion of each task order, the City representative shall inspect the work and sign off the installation drawing, indicating approval of the Contractor's work. A copy of the signed record drawing will be provided to the Contractor for record-keeping.

DATE: April 8,2024
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:STEPHEN PARKER,ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTING A RESOLUTION OPPOSING INITIATIVE#21-0042A1,A NOVEMBER 2024 STATEWIDE BALLOT PROPOSITION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution opposing Initiative#21-0042A1 which limits ability of voters and state and local governments to raise revenues for government services,a November 2024 Statewide Ballot Proposition.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of practicing sound fiscal management by developing long-term funding plans.

BACKGROUND
On February 1,2023,the California Secretary of State announced via press release that an initiative became eligible for the November 5,2024,General Election ballot and that the Secretary of State will certify the initiative as qualified for the ballot on June 27, 2024 unless it is withdrawn by the proponent prior to certification pursuant to Elections Code section 9604(b).

The Attorney General's official title is"Limits Ability of Voters and State and Local Governments to Raise Revenues for Government Services", and the summary of the measure can be found attached to this staff report. The Secretary of State's tracking number for this measure is 1935 and the Attorney General's tracking number is 21-0042A1.

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Initiative#21-0042A1 is a November 2024 statewide ballot proposition. The measure is a significant threat to local control and voters'rights that could jeopardize funding for vital services.

This measure creates new constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities,which could force residents and taxpayers to pay more to maintain services.

The measure puts billions of dollars currently dedicated to local services at risk, and could force cuts to fire and emergency response,law enforcement,services to support parks,and much more.

The measure is also an attack on voters'rights,containing undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures to fund local services,provisions that retroactively cancel measures recently passed by voters,and provisions that prevent voters from passing advisory measures that provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent.

Furthermore, the measure contains intentionally vague and restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments - costing taxpayers millions and blocking investments, development and long-term planning.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action is opposition to a ballot measure and is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Section 15378 of the CEQA Guidelines defines a project subject to CEQA. The proposed action is not included within the definition of a"project"and thus is exempt.

Page 73 of 78 ends

FISCAL IMPACTS
Unknown at this time but has the potential to significantly limit the city's ability to raise revenue in the future.

ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.

CEQA:Not a Project

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UPLAND, CALIFORNIA OPPOSING INITIATIVE #21-0042A1 "LIMITS ABILITY OF

VOTERS AND STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO RAISE REVENUES FOR GOVERNMENT SERVICES"
WHEREAS, on February 1, 2023, the California Secretary of State announced that an initiative became eligible for the November 5, 2024, General Election ballot; and
WHEREAS, on June 27, 2024, the Secretary of State will certify the initiative as qualified for the November 5, 2024, General Election ballot, unless it is withdrawn by the proponent prior to certification pursuant to Elections Code section 9604(b); and
WHEREAS, the California Attorney General's official title of the measure is "Limits Ability of Voters and State and Local Governments to Raise Revenues for Government Services" ("the Measure"); and
WHEREAS, an association representing California's wealthiest corporations is spending tens of millions of dollars to promote the Measure, which includes deceptive language and is currently eligible for the November 2024 statewide ballot; and WHEREAS, the Measure creates constitutional loopholes that allow corporations to pay far less than their fair share for the impacts they have on our communities, which could force residents and taxpayers to pay more to maintain services; and
WHEREAS, the Measure threatens billions of dollars every year in local government funding for services like fire and emergency response, law enforcement, affordable housing, services to support homeless residents, mental health services, and more; and
WHEREAS, the Measure is an attack on voters' rights, containing undemocratic provisions that would make it more difficult for local voters to pass measures to fund services, provisions that retroactively cancel measures recently passed by voters, and provisions that prevent voters from passing advisory measures that provide direction on how they want their local tax dollars spent; and WHEREAS, the Measure contains intentionally restrictive language that will encourage hundreds of frivolous lawsuits against cities and local governments - costing taxpayers many millions and stopping investments in vital local services; and WHEREAS, the Measure would make it much more difficult for state and local regulators to issue fines and levies on corporations that violate laws intended to protect our environment, public health and safety, and our neighborhoods; and WHEREAS, the Measure is opposed by hundreds of local governments, teachers, firefighters, working families, and local elected officials.

The Attorney General's official title and summary of the measure is as follows:

LIMITS ABILITY OF VOTERS AND STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO RAISE REVENUES FOR GOVERNMENT SERVICES. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. For new or increased state taxes currently enacted by two-thirds vote of Legislature, also requires statewide election and majority voter approval.

Summary of estimate by Legislative Analyst and Director of Finance of fiscal impact on state and local governments: Lower annual state and local revenues, potentially substantially lower, depending on future actions of the Legislature, local governing bodies,voters, and the courts.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

It is recommended that the City Council consider approval of the recommendations of the Public Works Committee regarding the additive items for the Baldy View Dog Park project.

GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of maintaining and improving the City's public park facilities.

BACKGROUND
On February 26,2024,the City Council awarded a construction contract to Green Giant Landscape,Inc.in the amount of$1,372,019 (Base bid amount of$1,194,419 plus additive alternate bid items Al, A2, and A3 of$177,600); approved a construction contingency in the amount of$227,981, for a total amount of$1,600,000.

On March 18, 2024, a Special Public Works Committee meeting was held to discuss the additive bid items: Al- Adirondack Chairs, A2-Picnic Tables and A3-Walking Path. After discussion the Public Works Committee recommended removing additive item Al entirely(two Adirondack chairs);increasing additive item A2(two concrete tables,for a total of 12 tables)by utilizing the saving from the removal of item Al;and maintaining additive item A3 (concrete walking path)as is shown on the plans.

On March 25, 2024, the City Council requested bringing the recommendations back to the City Council for a final vote.
