TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:KERI JOHNSON,CITY CLERK
SUBJECT: 2026 NOTICE OF REQUIRED AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY'S CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council accept notice that the City's Conflict of Interest Code requires amendments and direct staff to prepare a resolution amending the City's Conflict of Interest Code.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of complying with State regulations.
BACKGROUND
In accordance with the Government Code 87306.5,at the June 8,2026 City Council meeting,the City Council directed Staff to review the code and submit notice that either an amendment is required or no amendment is necessary.
The Political Reform Act(The Act)prohibits certain public officials from being involved in decision-making that will have an impact on their private financial interests.In addition,it requires certain public officials to file a Statement of Economic Interests publicly disclosing their private financial interests. The Act also makes the City responsible for adopting a Conflict of Interest Code identifying those positions that must file Statements of Economic Interest.
The Act requires the City to review its Conflict of Interest Code biennially to determine whether amendments to the Code are required. The City's Code identifies all positions within the City that participate in the making of governmental decisions.These designated positions are required to disclose certain financial interests under State law.
The last amendment to the City's Code was adopted on October 14, 2024. The City Council is the code reviewing body for City agencies. Pursuant to Government Code Section 87306.5, City departments must determine whether amendments to the Code are necessary and notify the City Council by October 1, 2026 whether or not such amendments are required..
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
An initial review has determined that the list of designated positions must be amended.Consistent with State law,this staff report serves as notice to the City Council that amendments to the City's Conflict of Interest Code are required.
Based on previous direction from the City Council and the requirements of the Political Reform Act, Staff intends to complete the review of the designated positions under the current Code and bring it back to the City Council for review and adoption.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action 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.
CEQA:Not a Project.

Accurate disclosure is essential to monitor whether officials have conflicts of interest and to help ensure public trust in government. The biennial review examines current programs to ensure that the agency's code includes disclosure by those agency officials who make or participate in making governmental decisions.
This agency has reviewed its conflict of interest code and has determined that (check one BOX):
n An amendment is required. The following amendments are necessary:
(Check all that apply.)
O Include new positions
❑ Revise disclosure categories
O Revise the titles of existing positions
❑ Delete titles of positions that have been abolished and/or positions that no longer make or participate in making governmental decisions
❑ Other (describe)
n The code is currently under review by the code reviewing body. n No amendment is required. (If your code is over five years old, amendments may be necessary.)
Verification (to be completed if no amendment is required) This agency's code accurately designates all positions that make or participate in the making of governmental decisions. The disclosure assigned to those positions accurately requires that all investments, business positions, interests in real property, and sources of income that may foreseeably be affected materially by the decisions made by those holding designated positions are reported. The code includes all other provisions required by Government Code Section 87302.

DATE: August 10,2026
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:STEPHEN PARKER,ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
CECILIA TODD,DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES/RISK MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE ADDITION OF THREE POSITIONS TO THE CITY'S SCHEDULE OF POSITIONS IN RESPONSE TO AB 339 MANDATE
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the addition of three positions to the City's schedule of positions.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of responsive leadership and economic workforce development by demonstrating collaboration with the City's recognized employee organizations, strengthening internal capacity to provide timely review, permitting, and engineering services and supporting continued economic investment in the community.
BACKGROUND
Effective January 1,2026,AB 339 requires local public agencies to provide recognized employee organizations with at least 45-days written notice prior to issuing an RFP,RFQ,or renewing or extending a contract for services that are currently performed by represented employees. The required notice must include key contract details such as the anticipated duration,scope of work,cost,and draft solicitation information if applicable.The purpose of this law is to increase transparency and allow employee organizations an opportunity to review and provide input regarding potential contracting out of services.
On June 22, 2026, the City Council approved a$60,000 Third Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with HR Green Pacific, Inc. for Fiscal Year 2026-27. The Upland Middle Management Employees Association (UMMEA) supported moving forward with the agreement under the condition that the City complete the necessary steps to establish and fill a permanent City employee position to perform plan check functions.
On June 22, 2026, the City Council approved a$60,000 Third Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with TransTech Engineers for Fiscal Year 2026-27. UMMEA supported moving forward with the agreement under the condition that the City complete the necessary steps to establish and fill a permanent City employee position to perform plan check functions.
On June 22,2026,the City Council approved a$112,000 Professional Services Agreement with Willdan Engineering for a term ending March 31,2027. The American Federation of State,County and Municipal Employees(AFSCME), Local 20 supported moving forward with the agreement under the condition that the City complete the necessary steps to establish and fill a permanent City employee position to perform permit technician functions.
On June 22,2026,the City Council approved a$205,000 Professional Services Agreement with CIR,Inc. for a term ending March 31, 2027. AFSCME Local 20 supported moving forward with the agreement under the condition that the City complete the necessary steps to establish and fill a permanent City employee position to perform plan check engineer functions.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Development Services Department has contracted with several different companies for services such as on-site plan checking,permitting,and engineering services.The scope of work provided within the contracts falls within the scope of work of one or more of the job classifications represented by recognized employee organizations of the City.These job classifications fall within the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) and Upland Mid-Management Employees Association(UMMEA)unions.
Pursuant to AB 339,the City engaged with both unions to begin the 45-day notice period.Both unions agreed to waive the remaining 45-day period and allow the City to continue to provide the contracted services without interruption as long as the City completes the necessary steps to transition the work currently contracted out to permanent City positions.
The three positions to be added are: Plan Check Engineer, Development Services Technician I/II, and Associate Engineer.
The contract information and corresponding job classifications are listed:
Contract Company Scope of Services Corresponding Union Bargaining Unit Permanent Cost/Duration Job Classification Employee Cost _ CIR,Inc. On-site Plan Check Plans Examiner' AFSCME $181,578/1 year $205,000/1 year Engineer for Building Associate Engineer' UMMEA &Safety Division.

'These two positions will be blended into one position. 2These two contracts equate to one permanent position.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action 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
These services are currently budgeted as contract expenses. The fiscal effect of transitioning the work to permanent City positions will result in a$1,579 budgeted decrease in the General Fund while providing the City with additional service hours and increased operational capacity and output.With this action,allocated contract funds approved in the City's budget will be transferred from contract services to personnel costs.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.
CEQA:Not a Project.

DATE: August 10,2026
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:STEPHEN PARKER,ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
CECILIA TODD,DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES/RISK MANAGER SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF REVISIONS TO RESTORE DEPUTY DIRECTOR BENEFITS IN
THE EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PLAN
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve revisions to the Executive Compensation and Benefit Plan.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of providing employees with the security of labor agreements while furnishing employees with fair compensation and benefits package based on the services they perform for the City.
BACKGROUND
Effective July 2025, the Deputy Director classifications were transitioned from the City's Non-Represented Compensation and Benefits Plan to the Executive Management Compensation and Benefits Plan as part of an organizational restructuring. The intent of this transition was to move the classifications into the Executive Management group without reducing or eliminating the compensation and benefits previously provided to incumbents in those positions.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Following an administrative review of the Executive Management Compensation and Benefits Plan, staff identified several provisions that were not incorporated into the plan for the Deputy Director classifications during the 2025 transition. As a result, certain compensation and benefit provisions that were intended to continue for these classifications were omitted from the Executive Management Compensation and Benefits Plan.
The proposed revisions restore those provisions to reflect the original intent of the July 2025 organizational change and ensure the Deputy Director classifications receive the compensation and benefits that were intended when they were transitioned to the Executive Management Compensation and Benefits Plan.These revisions are administrative in nature and are intended to align the plan with the City's original action and intent.
The proposed modifications include the following changes:
1. Add ARTICLE 23 -Parental Leave
2. Add ARTICLE 27—Deputy Director classification Performance Appraisal Pay
3. Add ARTICLE 28—Deputy Director classification Meritorious Pay
4. Add ARTICLE 29—Deputy Director classification Step Increases The proposed modifications to the Executive Compensation and Benefit Plan changes are attached for City Council consideration and approval.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action 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.
CEQA:Not a Project.

DATE: August 10,2026
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:STEPHEN PARKER,ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
RICHARD JEGANATHAN,IT MANAGER
STACEY PADRON,EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT I
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A PROFESSIONAL AND SOFTWARE SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH SAVANT SOLUTIONS
RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the Professional and Software Services Agreement with Savant Solutions for three(3)years,authorize an appropriation from the Information Technology Internal Service Fund fund balance in the amount of$261,224.07;and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of maintaining a secure and reliable technology infrastructure.
BACKGROUND
The City's network security infrastructure is a critical component in protecting municipal systems, data, and public services from evolving cybersecurity threats.The City's existing firewall hardware will reach end-of-life soon,limiting the availability of security updates,manufacturer support, and the ability to effectively defend against modern cyber threats.As cyberattacks targeting local governments continue to increase,it is essential that the City maintain current and supported security technologies.
The proposed annual firewall security subscription includes replacement of end-of-life firewall hardware, advanced endpoint protection for City-issued desktop and laptop computers,and expanded firewall log storage capacity.These enhancements will strengthen the City's overall cybersecurity posture and provide improved visibility into network activity to better detect,investigate,and respond to potential security incidents.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Local governments remain frequent targets of cyberattacks, including ransomware, phishing campaigns, and unauthorized attempts to access sensitive systems and information.The City's current firewall infrastructure will soon not provide the level of protection and support necessary to address today's cybersecurity risks. Continuing to rely on unsupported hardware increases the likelihood of service disruptions,security vulnerabilities,and operational impacts.
The proposed annual subscription modernizes the City's network security by replacing outdated firewall equipment with fully supported hardware,adding an advanced endpoint security solution for City workstations and laptops,and significantly increasing firewall log retention capacity. Enhanced endpoint protection provides an additional layer of defense by detecting and preventing malicious activity directly on user devices,while expanded log storage improves the City's ability to monitor network traffic,investigate suspicious events,and support incident response efforts.
Approval of the annual subscription will provide the City with ongoing security updates,threat intelligence,technical support,and access to the latest security features,ensuring the City's cybersecurity infrastructure remains current and capable of protecting critical systems and public services.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action 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
The total cost for the annual subscription is $261,224.07. After an appropriation from fund balance through the attached Budget Amendment, there are available funds in the IT Data Processing Services Account No. 7531401- 5254.
The cost for the remaining terms of the Agreement will be included as a part of the biennial budget process.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.
CEQA:Not a Project.

This Agreement may not be modified or altered except in writing signed by both parties hereto. This is an integrated Agreement.
19. Title to Software. Provider represents and warrants that it is the sole owner of the Software or, if not the owner, that it has received all legally required authorizations from the owner to license the Software as contemplated herein, has the full power to grant the rights required by this Agreement, and that neither the Software, nor its use in accordance with the Contract Documents, will violate or infringe upon any patent, copyright, trade secret, or any other property rights of another person or City.
20. Infringement and Performance Breach Remedies. If it is claimed that any work furnished by Provider, whether first developed by Provider for the City or not, infringes any intellectual property right or is otherwise unlawful, Provider agrees to defend or settle any such claim or suit at Provider's expense and to indemnify and hold the City harmless from any losses, damages or harm, including attorney's fees and legal expenses, incurred as a result of such claim.

Provider will also pay all damages and costs that by final judgment, settlement or other resolution are assessed against the City due to such alleged or proven infringement and reimburse the City for any direct damages suffered by the City as a result of the infringement claim, including but not limited to attorney's fees. Should Provider find, or be found, to have infringed on any intellectual property rights, Provider will procure; (i) a right for the City to continue using the applicable Software or Work Product, (ii) a solution to mitigate the infringement, or(iii) a product to replace the infringing product that provides the functionality and complies with the specifications contained in the Contract Documents.

21. Termination.
6 46708.00106\45270497.1
a. Termination for Default. Subject to the right to cure contained in Section 20.b., the City may terminate this Agreement in whole or in part, at any time that the City determines that Provider is in material default of its obligations under the Contract Documents. Termination for default is effective on the date specified in the City's written notice of default. Should Provider fail to cure a default, then in addition to any other remedies provided by law or the Contract Documents, Provider shall compensate the City's actual costs to obtain substitute performance. A termination for default shall be deemed a termination for convenience if the termination for default is later found to be without justification. b. Cure. Provider shall have a period of ten (10) days following a written notice of default to either cure such default or if such default cannot be cured within such period, to provide evidence satisfactory to City, in its sole discretion, that Provider is taking action to cure such default.

This Agreement may be terminated by the City, in whole or in part, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Provider, when the City determines this to be in its best interest. The termination for convenience is effective on the date specified in the City's written notice. Termination for convenience may entitle Provider to payment for reasonable costs allocable to the Contract Documents for work or costs incurred by Provider up to the date of termination. Provider shall not be paid compensation as a result of a termination for convenience that exceeds the amount payable under the schedule of charges in Exhibit "B."
d. Termination for Non-Appropriation. City's payment obligation under this Agreement extends only to funds appropriated annually by City's governing body for the purpose of this Agreement. For each succeeding fiscal period covered by this Agreement, City's applicable department responsible for this Agreement agrees to include in its budget request appropriations sufficient to cover the annual financial obligations under this Agreement. However, City's governing body has no obligation to make appropriations for the Agreement in lieu of appropriations for new or other contracts. If City is appropriated insufficient funds to continue annual payments under this Agreement, City may terminate this Agreement effective upon the last day of the fiscal year for which funds were appropriated. Upon termination under this paragraph, Provider shall be entitled to compensation for all services rendered prior to the effective termination date. Provider's assumption of risk of possible non-appropriation is a part of the consideration for the Agreement. This Section controls against any and all other provisions of the Agreement. e. Software License. If there is a termination for any reason, the City shall have the right to elect to (i) retain and use any Software for which City has paid the license fee to Provider; or(ii) return and discontinue use of such Software in exchange for a refund of such license fee.

Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officials, officers, employees and agents free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Consultant or any subcontractor.
25. Verification of Employment Eligibility.

TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MICHAEL BLAY,CITY MANAGER
PREPARED BY:STEPHEN PARKER,CPA,ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
STACI SULLIVAN,DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVING FISCAL YEAR 2025-26 CARRY FORWARD OF FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF$40,000 FOR THE LITTER FREE UPLAND PILOT PROJECT RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the carry forward of$40,000 from Fiscal Year 2025-26 to Fiscal Year 2026-27 to partially cover the cost of the Litter Free Upland pilot program.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal to provide fiscal stewardship for the City of Upland.
BACKGROUND
Citywide litter and debris challenges have multiple causes, the most effective programs typically combine infrastructure improvements, regular maintenance, community engagement, and consistent enforcement rather than relying on a single solution.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The Public Works Department has entered into an Agreement with Litter Free Upland for Litter/Debris Removal Services. The program is about more than litter removal, it's about helping the City of Upland test a repeatable, community-supported model for cleaner public spaces, stronger civic ownership, and more effective field coordination.Litter Free Upland has recently shown what is possible with little to no formal funding.This pilot gives the City a chance to strengthen that momentum,improve visible conditions in key locations,support youth,and build the mapped field data,documentation,and public trust needed for longer-term success.It strengthens the City's ability to demonstrate good-faith effort, improve competitiveness for future grant opportunities, and connect on-the-ground implementation with broader stormwater, beautification, and maintenance goals. With City partnership, Litter Free Upland can help move Upland toward a cleaner,more welcoming,and more resilient public environment-one where residents,businesses,volunteers,and students all see themselves as part of the solution.
This pilot project was conceptually approved in January 2026,with the Agreement executed in June for a start date of July 1,2026.Given that the purchase order will be established in Fiscal Year 2026-27,a carry forward in the amount of$40,000 is requested to cover a majority of the contract cost of$45,000 without negatively impacting the current operating budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The proposed action 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$40,000 available in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 City Manager Discretionary Account No. 1011201-5210 which can be carried forward to Fiscal Year 2026-27.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.
CEQA:Not a Project.

Long-Term Value to the City of Upland
At its core,this proposal is about more than litter pickup. It is about helping the City of Upland test a repeatable, community-supported model for cleaner public spaces, stronger civic ownership, and more effective field coordination. Litter Free Upland has already shown what is possible with little to no formal funding.This pilot gives the City a chance to strengthen that momentum, improve visible conditions in key locations, support youth, and build the mapped field data,documentation, and public trust needed for longer-term success. It also strengthens the City's ability to demonstrate good-faith effort, improve competitiveness for future grant opportunities, and connect on-the-ground implementation with broader stormwater, beautification, and maintenance goals.
With city partnership, Litter Free Upland can help move Upland toward a cleaner, more welcoming, and more resilient public environment-one where residents, businesses,volunteers, and students all see themselves as part of the solution.
Proposed message the City should be able to say after reading this proposal:
"Litter Free Upland has made impact in one year with almost no formal funding.A structured partnership can help turn that proven energy into a stronger citywide cleanliness program."

SUBJECT: CONSIDER ADOPTING RESOLUTIONS APPROVING THE MEASURE I FIVE-YEAR
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN AND CAPITAL PROJECT NEEDS ANALYSIS RECOMMENDED ACTION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve a Resolution adopting the Measure I Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan for Fiscal Years 2026-27 through Fiscal Year 2030-21 and approve a Resolution adopting the Measure I Five- Year Capital Project Needs Analysis for Fiscal Years 2027-28 through Fiscal Year 2031-32.
GOAL STATEMENT
The proposed action supports the City's goal of continuing to maintain and improve the City's public roadway facilities.
BACKGROUND
In November 1989, the San Bernardino County voters approved "Measure I 1990-2010", a half-cent sales tax that partially funded countywide transportation improvements between 1990 and 2010.In November 2004,voters passed "Measure I 2010-2040",extending the sales tax for an additional 30 years.In April 2009,the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA, formerly SANBAG) approved the "Measure I 2010-2040 Strategic Plan" (Strategic Plan), which serves as the policy and procedures document for the delivery of projects and programs referenced within the new Measure.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
The Strategic Plan identifies certain transportation programs that qualify for Measure I funding including:Local Street; Freeway; Freeway Interchange; Major Street; Express Bus; Metrolink/Rail Transit; Senior/Disabled Transit; and Traffic Management Systems. The Plan also contains provisions for the funding allocation and expenditure process regarding each transportation program. Furthermore, to qualify for Measure I funding, each participating agency is required to prepare and submit a five-year Capital Improvement Plan and Capital Project Needs Analysis:
1. Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan(CIP).Each year,the City of Upland receives approximately$2 million under the "Local Street Program", depending on the actual sales tax proceeds. These are local returned funds based on Upland's population and the City has the discretion of using the funds for local street projects.
Jurisdictions receiving funding must annually adopt a Five-Year CIP,outlining specific local projects to be funded in the next five years. Exhibits "A" and"B" summarize Upland's Measure I roadway projects for the next five years and related expenditure strategy.
2. Capital Project Needs Analysis (CPNA). The Strategic Plan contains a list of transportation projects funded under the "Freeway Interchange Program" and the "Major Street Program". Unlike Measure I local funds mentioned above, the Strategic Plan specifically identifies Arrow Route and Foothill Blvd. as regional projects qualifying for additional funding under the "Major Street Program". Additionally, Euclid Avenue & I-10 Freeway, and Monte Vista Avenue & I-10 Freeway interchanges have been identified as a top priority and are being developed under the "Freeway Interchange Program." For efficiency, both interchanges are being coordinated with the construction of the I-10 Freeway main line corridor improvement program. As mentioned, each agency is required to adopt a CPNA,stating its capital project expenditure plan for the next five fiscal years (FY 2026/27 to FY 2030/31). SBCTA will compile all CPNA documents received for the purpose of expenditure planning within the region. Exhibits"C-F"contain Upland's Five-Year CPNA.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
There is no environmental impact for approving the reporting required by the Measure I Capital Improvement Plans and Capital Project Needs Analysis. Road maintenance projects are typically exempt from CEQA as the resultant pavement rehabilitation work falls under CEQA Categorical Exemption pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 Class 1 (Existing Facilities)and Section 15302 Class 2(Replacement or Reconstruction).
FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
ALTERNATIVES
Provide alternative direction to staff.
CEQA:Not a Project.
RESOLUTION NO.
