HID No. 1998-1 Special Tax and Bond Accountability Report I. INTRODUCTION
On September 18, 2000, former Governor Gray Davis signed Senate Bill 165 which enacted the Local Agency Special Tax and Bond Accountability Act. In approving the bill, the Legislature declared that local agencies need to demonstrate to the voters that special taxes and bond proceeds are being spent on the facilities and services for which they were intended. To further this objective, the Legislature added Sections 50075.3 and 53411 to the Californi a Government Code setting forth annual reporting requirements relative to special taxes collected and bonds issued by a local public agency.
The City of Vallejo (the “City”) has levied special taxes (the “Improvement Levy”) in the Hiddenbrooke Improvement District No. 1998-1 (the “HID”) in fiscal year 2023-24. Furthermore, the City of Vallejo issued bonds in 1998 (the “District Bonds”) that were secured by the revenues from the HID Improvement Levy. In 2004, the Vallejo Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”) issued additional bonds (the “Bonds”) in order to purchase the District Bonds in lieu of redemption. This report serves to satisfy the annual reporting requirements described above for the HID Improvement Levy revenues, the District Bonds, and the Bonds.

UNAPPROPRIATED PARK IMPACT FEES TO REIMBURSE THE GREATER VALLEJO
RECREATION DISTRICT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TRAINING SWIMMING POOL AT THE CUNNINGHAM AQUATIC CENTER (STEP 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution amending the fiscal year 2024-25 Neighborhood Park Fee Capital Project Fund #137 budget by allocating $240,000 of unappropriated park impact fees to reimburse Greater Vallejo Recreation District for the construction of the Training Swimming Pool at the Cunningham Aquatic Center.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
City Charter Section 703 permits the transfer of unappropriated funds by the City Council upon one week’s written notice of its intention to do so. The Notice of Intent to amend the budget was presented to Council at the Council Meeting held on December 10, 2024. This proposed action is the second step of the City Charter- required two-step budget amendment process.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Greater Vallejo Recreational District (GVRD) operates and maintains parks and public recreational facilities within the City of Vallejo. Section 3.18 of the Vallejo Municipal Code allows for the use of park impact fees collected by the City to reimburse GVRD for eligible expenses.
For the current fiscal year, GVRD has submitted a request for reimbursement of $240,000 for the construction of the Training Swimming Pool at the Cunningham Aquatic Center. City staff have reviewed GVRD’s request and confirmed that the costs are consistent with the intended use of park impact fees as outlined in Section
3.18 of the Vallejo Municipal Code.
This budget amendment proposes allocating $240,000 from the Neighborhood Park Fee Capital Project Fund #137 to fulfill this obligation. By approving this reimbursement, the City will uphold its commitment to supporting recreational services for the community.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed budget amendment will increase the expenditure budget by $240,000. No impact to the City’s General Fund is anticipated. The Neighborhood Park Fee Capital Project Fund has sufficient fund balance to cover this expenditure.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to CEQA Section 15378, as it is not a project that has the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 BUDGET IN THE AMOUNT OF $500,000 TO RECOGNIZE REIMBURSEMENT REVENUE AND APPROPRIATE FUNDS FROM THE COUNTY OF SOLANO’S ARPA GRANT REVENUE
FOR FEASIBILITY STUDIES IN THE CITY WATER SYSTEM AND THE LAKES WATER SYSTEM (STEP 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution to amend the Water Enterprise Fund Fiscal Year 2024-25 adopted budget in the amount of $500,000 to recognize revenue and appropriate expenditures from the County of Solano’s ARPA grant revenue for feasibility studies in the City Water System (Project No. WT7127, Cache Main & Pump Station Rehab) and the Lakes Water System (WT7128, Lakes Water System Auxiliary Pump Supply).
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
This proposed action is the second step of the City Charter-required two-step budget amendment process following the City Council’s action on October 22, 2024, where the City Council approved item 8N and authorized the City Manager to accept reimbursements of the County of Solano’s ARPA grant revenue and filed a notice of intent to amend the Fiscal Year 2024-25 budget.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On October 22, 2024, the City Council provided notice of intent to amend the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year Budget in the amount of $500,000 to recognize reimbursement revenue received from Solano County's ARPA grant revenue to reimburse the City for the Cache Slough Feasibility Study and the Lakes Water System Feasibility Study. These two important studies are summarized as follows:
Cache Slough Feasibility Study
The City’s Cache Slough pumping plant is located in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, and was built in 1952 to convey water from the Delta to the City’s service area, which includes the cities of Vallejo, Benicia, Fairfield, and American Canyon, as well as Travis Air Force Base, through water exchange contracts. The Cache Slough pumping plant has been inoperable since the 1980s due to water quality issues from upstream wastewater effluent which has since been improved through tertiary treatment processes. Currently, the City conveys its share of water through the North Bay Aquaduct (NBA) as “City Permit Water”. Due to its seniority, the City’s Permit Water is considered the most valuable of the NBA water supply portfolio. However, the NBA is routinely taken offline and experiences curtailments which restricts the reliability of the supply. City staff propose to reinstate the Cache Slough pumping plant to provide additional reliable water supplies to its regional customers that are currently at risk due to increasing curtailments of the NBA. The feasibility would include evaluating water quality treatment options, construction costs, operations and maintenance, and conceptual design alternatives. Solano County will contribute up to $250,000 of its ARPA funding, which is a 50% cost share of the $500,000 total to conduct a feasibility study to assess reinstatement of the Cache Slough pumping plant.
Lakes Water System Feasibility Study
Date: December 17, 2024
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING FISCAL YEAR 2024-2025 BUDGET IN THE AMOUNT OF $500,000 TO RECOGNIZE REIMBURSEMENT REVENUE AND APPROPRIATE FUNDS FROM THE COUNTY OF SOLANO’S ARPA GRANT
REVENUE FOR FEASIBILITY STUDIES IN THE CITY WATER SYSTEM AND THE LAKES WATER SYSTEM (STEP 2)
The City has two primary water systems, including the City’s system, serving the Vallejo area, and the Lakes Water System, serving the unincorporated western portion of Solano County. The Lakes Water System’s water supply is provided through two lakes, Madigan and Frey, and supplemented with Solano Project water from Lake Berryessa. Due to climatic changes and reduced supply reliability of Lakes Madigan and Frey, City staff propose to conduct a feasibility study to connect the City’s two water systems to provide additional water to the Lakes Water System. Solano County will contribute up to $250,000 of its ARPA funding, which is a 50% cost share of the $500,000 total to conduct a feasibility study to assess connecting the City’s water systems.
Tonight's action by the City Council is step two in the budget amendment process. Staff requests that the City Council adopt a resolution amending the budget to recognize the revenue and authorize its expenditure.

There is no impact to the General Fund. Both feasibility studies are funded from existing projects, Cache Main & Pump Station Rehab (Project No. WT7127) and Lakes Water System Auxiliary Pump Supply (Project No.
WT7128), and have already been appropriated from the Water Enterprise Fund. The grant funding provided by Solano County will offset the cost to the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.

SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO
APPROVING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE EQUIPMENT PURCHASE AGREEMENT
WITH AQUA-METRIC FOR WATER METER BOX LIDS, INCREASING THE NOT-TO- EXCEED AMOUNT BY $99,926.10 FOR SALES TAX AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution of the City Council of the City of Vallejo approving the First Amendment to the Equipment Purchase Agreement with Aqua-Metric increasing the not-to-exceed amount by $99,926.10 for sales tax and authorizing the City Manager to execute the same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) is the standard for water metering nation-wide in the drinking-water industry. Once implemented, AMI increases the precision of meter reading by providing 15-minute interval data from meters to both customers and the City through a secure cellular process. For AMI to work most effectively, and to extend the life of the meters, the cellular data needs to be transmitted efficiently through a specifically-engineered lid on top of the meter box. On July 23, 2024 (after standard bidding and vendor selection for meter box lids in March, 2024), the Vallejo City Council approved the contract with Aqua-Metric and authorized the City Manager of the City of Vallejo to execute an Equipment Purchase Agreement. Staff inadvertently omitted the cost of taxes in the not-to-exceed amount of the contract which prevents the Water Department from purchasing all needed meter box lids. This amendment increases the not-to-exceed amount of the Aqua-Metric by $99,926.10 to $1,454,856.10 to include the cost of taxes.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The City's Capital Improvement Plan approved by Council includes for Water a bond-funded project to implement Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). The Water Department selected Badger Meter, Inc. to provide AMI hardware and all software, and Concord Utility Services, Inc. to provide meter upgrade installation services. These firms provide the best-in-class performance relative to the requirements outlined in the RFP.
The City Council approved the contract with Badger Meter, Inc. on May 9, 2023.
Badger meters include endpoints that operate by transmitting a cellular signal from the meter box underground to a commercial cellular tower. Like with other cellular devices, transmission of this signal can be blocked by thick materials—particularly steel and concrete. Vallejo’s current meter box lids will inhibit this signal, likely preventing collection of meter reads and alarms in most cases. A non-metal (preferably polymer) lid with a thru-hole for the endpoint antenna is recommended by the manufacturer for proper installation of its endpoints.
Failure to replace lids could result in diminished signal strength from endpoints and will lower read rate and prevent timely and accurate billing for customers; and a lack of data availability will hinder Vallejo’s ability to alert customers of potential leaks or other service-related issues.
Throughout the metering system technology integration and deployment planning discussions, it was brought to the attention of Water Department staff that existing concrete lids on meter boxes would reduce the battery

life of the installed meters by as much as 50% (from 20 years to 10 years), as well as impede the ability of the meter to send out a cellular signal to record real-time data. It was the decision of staff to pursue replacement of the concrete meter lids with lids made of materials to support of optimal functionality and maximum battery life.A Request for Proposal (RFP) was issued on February 28, 2024, seeking a vendor for meter box lid bids.
Staff identified Aqua-Metric as the lowest apparent bid to provide non-metal and non-concrete lids to optimize the cellular transmission from the meter to the cellular tower and to optimize the battery life of the meters.
On July 23, 2024, the Vallejo City Council approved the contract with Aqua-Metric and authorized the City Manager of the City of Vallejo to execute an Equipment Purchase Agreement. Staff inadvertently omitted the cost of sales taxes in the not-to-exceed amount of the contract which prevents the Water Department from purchasing all needed meter box lids. To correct for the inclusion of the cost of sales taxes increases the value of the Purchase Agreement by $99,926.10 to $1,454,856.10.
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost of AMI implementation is funded by the City of Vallejo Series 2021 Tax Exempt Water Revenue Bonds as well as a $2 million grant from the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR). There is no impact on the General Fund.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15061(b)(3) (the “common sense” exemption).

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the details.
We are good to go as far as insurance is concerned.
Hi Fernando,
Could you please have someone in your team PDF this email chain and add to DocuSign?

Understood, yes to all conditions 1-3. We are just drop shipping lids on a common freight carrier. No access to any city locations and Concord will be installing the lids.

Hi Mike,
Fernando and I reviewed the submitted COI, and we are finding that it’s missing the following required endorsement:
Waiver of Subrogation Rights Endorsement in favor of the City of Vallejo under their workers' compensation insurance. The endorsement should reflect the current workers' compensation policy number.
We can waive this requirement if all of the following conditions are met:
1. The vendor/contractor will never access the City's owned or controlled buildings, properties, or facilities, under any circumstances.
2. There is no need for installation or any other physical work to be carried out by the employees of the vendor/contractor.
3. All goods purchased from the vendor will be delivered using common or commercial carriers, such as UPS or FedEx. In other words, the vendor or its employees will not be responsible for delivering goods to our locations.
Thanks,
Armond Sarkis, CPCU, ARM

I understand Mike,
The last email I saw with John/you/those on this thread was the COI was sent to our Risk Department for review. After combing through emails and looking at your vendor folder within our system, I see nothing that shows the COI with an expiration date of 7/1/2025 was approved by our Risk Department or not. As I do not know if it was approved or not, I need them to let me know if it is acceptable or not based on the insurance requirements that went out during the bid process. I am hopeful they can clear this up and we can begin the contract routing process, thank you and talk soon! Fernando Jimenez

Good afternoon Mike,
Based on what I have seen so far on the COI, I note there are no endorsements in favor of the City or any subrogation, @Armond Sarkis if you can take a look when you have a moment at this please? Thank you!

Thank you sir,
I am updating the draft agreement and will wait to hear back from our Risk Department concerning the certificate of insurance. From there, I will reach out concerning next steps as we work toward getting a fully executed contract and PO. Thank you and talk soon! Fernando Jimenez

Good afternoon Mike,
@John Manrique is out of office at the moment but I am looking to help with the work he was tasked to do, that said, I am needing to read the email chain and get up to speed to determine where everything is at so I can help move things along. Looking at your company’s folder in our system, it seems as though we have all the documentation needed for an agreement to be routed however, I need to determine if your COI was approved by our Risk Management. Could you please confirm if @Jeff Randolph is the authorized signer?

Hello Mike,
My deepest apologies. We’re in the middle of doing our end of year Physical Inventory in the warehouse and I’ve been completely slammed. I did reach out to our Finance manager to confirm that a screen shot of the website would suffice and we should be good. We are slated to go to our City Counc il on July 23 to get approval at which point I will route the contract for signatures. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you! Best,
John

CONSENT CALENDAR 8.K.
DATE: December 17, 2024
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Stephanie Sifuentes, Human Resources Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A SIDE LETTER AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF VALLEJO AND THE INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF ELECTRICAL WORKERS, LOCAL 1245 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving a Side Letter Agreement between the City of Vallejo and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1245 and authorize the City Manager to execute the same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Due to staffing issues in the Water Treatment Plants, there are an inadequate number of Water Treatment Plant Operators to staff shifts appropriately. Offering double-time for all overtime hours worked until we can fill the remaining vacancies will help ensure adequate staffing.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The Water Department has been experiencing difficulty recruiting Water Treatment Plant Operators (WTPO) to staff the Water Treatment Plants sufficiently. HR conducted a review of the WTPO classification series, as well as those in our comparable agencies. It was determined that there were some certifications in our classification specifications that were required at the time of hire that, in reality, were not necessary at the time of hire, but rather within the first year of employment. This is because the Water Department provides the training and certifications. By requiring the certifications at the time of hire, we were requiring more than our comparable agencies, and limiting our candidate pool.
In September, HR took the Water Treatment Plant Operator classification series to the Civil Service Commission to revise the classification specification for the series to instead reflect that the certifications must be obtained within the first 12 months of employment (and maintained thereafter). Recruitment efforts following these changes have improved, and we anticipate that they will continue to improve. To date, we have four WTPO vacancies (with two of the four in the pre-hire process), 5 Senior WTPO vacancies, and one WTPO on leave. In addition, we are preparing to open a new WTPO recruitment, which will create a new eligible list to select from.
In the meantime, as we continue to work to fill the vacancies in the Water Treatment Plants, we need to be able to staff shifts sufficiently with the staff we have. Offering double-time for all overtime hours worked will help ensure the Water Department can staff those shifts.
The City and IBEW met and conferred in good faith and subsequently entered into a one-time, non-precedent setting, Side Letter Agreement to allow regular, full-time Water Treatment Plant Operators, Senior Water Treatment Plant Operators, and Water Treatment Plant Supervisors to receive double-time for all overtime hours worked, effective the first full pay period following Council adoption (12/28/2024) through June 27, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT
Date: December 17, 2024
Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A SIDE LETTER AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF VALLEJO AND THE INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF
ELECTRICAL WORKERS, LOCAL 1245 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER
TO EXECUTE THE SAME
The proposed increase of overtime pay from 1.5 to double time for all overtime hours worked by Water Treatment Plant Operators ($21.38- $25.98 per hour) , Senior Water Treatment Plant Operators ( $22.46- $27.30 per hour), and Water Plant Operator Supervisors ($24.79-$30.14) for the period covering 12/28/24 through 6/27/2025 is anticipated to have a variable fiscal impact, depending on the number of overtime hours worked to address staffing shortages. At this time, it is estimated that the fiscal impact of this proposed item can be absorbed within the existing Salaries and Benefit budget of the Water Department due to current vacant savings.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.

SIDE LETTER AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
CITY OF VALLEJO
AND
INTERNATIONAL BROTHERHOOD OF ELECTRICAL WORKERS, LOCAL 1245 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.2 Overtime, of the Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Vallejo (“City”) and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 1245 (“IBEW”), both hereinafter referred to as “the parties”, overtime is currently calculated as time-and-one-half for hours worked in excess of the regularly scheduled hours.

DATE: December 17, 2024
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Melissa Tigbao, P.E., Public Works Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO
APPROVING THE FOLLOWING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (CALTRANS): (A) COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT 04-3016 PROVIDING FOR THE CITY'S $126,000 CONTRIBUTION TO SR 29 IMPROVEMENTS; (B) CITY OF VALLEJO COVER AGREEMENT; (C) VALLEJO
FIRST AMENDMENT TO FREEWAY MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR THE FAIRGROUNDS DRIVE INTERCHANGE PROJECT; (D) EMERGENCY VEHICLE DETECTION MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; (E) LAW ENFORCEMENT SURVEILLANCE SERVICES MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; AND (F) AGREEMENT FOR SHARING COST
OF STATE HIGHWAY ELECTRICAL FACILITIES, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution of the City Council of The City of Vallejo Approving the Following Agreements Between the City and the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans): (A) Cooperative Agreement 04-3016 providing for the City's $126,000 Contribution to SR 29 Improvements; (B) City of Vallejo Cover Agreement; (C) Vallejo First Amendment to Freeway Maintenance Agreement for the Fairgrounds Drive Interchange Project; (D) Emergency Vehicle Detection Maintenance Agreement; (E) Law Enforcement Surveillance Services Maintenance Agreement; and (F) Agreement for Sharing Cost of State Highway Electrical Facilities, and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Executing these agreements and any related amendments are necessary for Caltrans and Solano Transportation Authority (STA) to secure all of the grant funding, execute contracts, and satisfy their funding and oversight agencies allowing the Fairgrounds Drive at SR37 Divergent Diamond Interchange project and Caltrans SR29/Sonoma Blvd. SHOPP and Complete Streets project to proceed into construction. Failing to execute these agreements will delay the projects and threatens the funding program for delivering each project.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The State of California is involved with the disbursement of federal funds for transportation purposes. Before federal funds will be made available for a project within a specific program, the City and the State are required to enter into agreements to establish terms and conditions applicable to the City when receiving federal funds for a designated project and for the subsequent operation of maintenance of that completed facility. Individual projects require new agreements or amendments to be executed from time to time.
There are two upcoming projects that require the execution of various agreements. By approving these agreements and authorizing the City Manager to execute same, it will allow the projects to go through the required Caltrans, Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), and the California Transportation Commission (CTC) approval processes.
Date: December 17, 2024
Subject:
ADOPT A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO APPROVING
THE FOLLOWING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (CALTRANS): (A) COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT 04-3016 PROVIDING FOR THE CITY'S $126,000 CONTRIBUTION TO SR 29 IMPROVEMENTS; (B) CITY OF VALLEJO COVER AGREEMENT; (C) VALLEJO FIRST AMENDMENT TO FREEWAY MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR THE FAIRGROUNDS DRIVE INTERCHANGE PROJECT; (D) EMERGENCY VEHICLE DETECTION MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; (E) LAW ENFORCEMENT SURVEILLANCE SERVICES MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; AND (F)
AGREEMENT FOR SHARING COST OF STATE HIGHWAY ELECTRICAL FACILITIES, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME.
Failure to execute and submit such agreements within required timelines may disencumber and/or de-obligate funds toward these projects.
The specific agreements that need to be executed include Agreements associated with the construction of parts of the Fairgrounds Drive/SR37 Interchange project and the State Route 29 Improvement Project including:
A. Cooperative Agreement 04-3016. This agreement commits the City to paying Caltrans $126,000 to cover our share of costs of local improvements being implemented during Caltrans project to improve a portion of State Route 29. The improvements include many of the complete streets elements such as restriping the roadway with a road diet that adds bike lanes across Vallejo, and includes additional pedestrian safety, accessibility, and complete streets elements such as bulb outs, curb ramps, high visibility crosswalks, benches, bike racks, sidewalk lighting, and street trees to the central part of Vallejo between Curtola Parkway and Tennessee Street. The local improvements that will be owned and maintained by the City after the project include the benches, bike racks, and pedestrian scale, solar-powered lights. The original estimate for local contribution for this Caltrans project was $721,000 and the City Council approved funding for this in the FY 22/23 budget. The funds to cover the City’s contribution exist in the City’s Capital Improvement Program project PW9440.
B. Cover Agreement – this agreement authorizes Caltrans to raise and lower the City’s owned utility covers including manholes, valve covers, and meter boxes relating to all projects in the City until such time as the Agreement is revoked or amended. CalTrans is requesting the City enter into this Agreement at this time in order to apply the Agreement to the SR- 29 Improvement Project. The language of the Cover Agreement could pose some risks for the City in that CalTrans can, pursuant to the language in the Agreement, require the City to reimburse CalTrans for the cost of the adjustments to City owned facilities on all projects in the City for the entire term of the Agreement. City Staff requested local Caltrans staff to change the language in this Agreement to either only apply to the current SR -29 project or to remove the reimbursement obligation. Because the Cover Agreement is a state-wide document and couldn’t be changed on the project timeline, CalTrans staff was not able to accommodate the request. To attempt to mitigate the City’s risk as much as possible, Caltrans staff offered to provide a side letter from CalTrans Management to provide assurances in writing that they would work cooperatively with the City to manage reduce or eliminate costs to the City. Such letter is included as an attachment. CalTrans staff advised the City that they would be working to amend the standard Cover Agreement to address concerns raised in the future. The City can terminate the Cover Agreement subsequent to the SR-29 Improvement Project in the event such amendments are not forthcoming.
C. Vallejo First Amendment to the Freeway Maintenance Agreement (FMA) – This agreement is an amendment to the existing FMA to obligate the City to maintain Fairgrounds Drive, which is a local street, as it passes through Caltrans’ SR37 ROW.

THE FOLLOWING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (CALTRANS): (A) COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT 04-3016 PROVIDING FOR THE CITY'S $126,000 CONTRIBUTION TO SR 29 IMPROVEMENTS; (B) CITY OF VALLEJO COVER AGREEMENT; (C) VALLEJO FIRST AMENDMENT TO FREEWAY MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT FOR THE FAIRGROUNDS DRIVE INTERCHANGE PROJECT; (D) EMERGENCY VEHICLE DETECTION MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; (E) LAW ENFORCEMENT SURVEILLANCE SERVICES MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT; AND (F)

removal in the areas depicted in the Exhibit to the Agreement.
D. Emergency Vehicle Detection System Maintenance Agreement – The Emergency Vehicle Detection System turns signals green for emergency vehicles so that they reach their destinations quicker. This system is only used by the City and this agreement commits the City to pay for the costs of maintaining the system on all Caltrans’ facilities where such a system is installed by the City.
E. Law Enforcement Surveillance Devices Maintenance Agreement – This agreement relates to the maintenance of law enforcement technology installed upon CalTrans facilities by the City, including such devices as the Vallejo Police Department’s Flock Camera System. This agreement provides that the City shall pay all costs of maintenance associated with these facilities wherever they are installed on any CalTrans property. The Fairgrounds Interchange project includes placement of a Flock Camera.
F. Agreement for Sharing Cost of State Highway Electrical Facilities – This agreement purports to replace any and all previously executed agreements between the City and Caltrans. This agreement allocates the costs of maintenance and electricity for the signal and lighting systems at intersections along the State Highways in Vallejo that have intersections with local streets. The Fairgrounds Interchange Project includes two signalized intersections where the SR37 on-ramps and off-ramps intersect with Fairgrounds Drive. The agreement allocates the intersection costs attributable to each such intersection specifically. The formula by which these percentages were reached relates to the percentage of street legs at the intersection. So a normal intersection where a local street crosses the state highway (Georgia Street at Sonoma Blvd./SR29 for example) would be split 50/50. If the City has one leg of a four-legged intersection (Lewis Brown Drive at SR/29 and SR37), then the City’s share is only 25% of costs. The City has not been able to locate all agreements that this agreements states it is replacing and although requested, we have not been provided a list of such from CalTrans to date.
We have raised a concern with CalTrans that amending previous agreements that are not specifically identified is not a good practice. We hope to resolve this issue prior to your meeting.

FISCAL IMPACT
Staff believes there is no fiscal impact associated with this item. The City already has responsibility for maintaining Fairgrounds Drive as it passes through Caltrans’ SR37 ROW. It is not possible at this time to forecast how the new Divergent Diamond interchange may change the City’s maintenance costs, but it is projected to generally be the same as the current costs. The funding for the Cooperative Agreement were allocated into the City’s budget in FY22/23 in anticipation of this project moving forward at that time. The adjustment of utility covers under the Cover Agreement could result in costs to the City if something extraordinary is discovered, but these are cost of ownership risks. Caltrans letter provides assurances that the financial impact risk will be minimized.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is not a project which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15378.
