phase of design to 100% completion.

An application for grant funding to cover the construction phase of the project was approved in late 2021. The amount applied for was based on engineer project estimates at the time - $13,000,000. Proceeding to the construction phase of the Project was postponed due to funding delays resulting from budgetary constraints within Caltrans' Bridge Program. In June 2024, Caltrans approved the additional construction funding in the amount of $10,925,487. The approved scope of work for the Project includes the following:

• Spot repair and overcoat lift span and towers.
• Repair cracked, spalled and de-laminated concrete in the substructure and superstructure. • Repair cracks and apply a polyester overlay on the bridge deck. • Replace deck joint seals.
• Replace damaged sidewalk panels.
• Repair or replace deteriorating piles.
• Repair or replace metal railing posts.
• Replace underwater anodes.
• Restore the logo.
• Clean, repair, and paint metal railings.
• Repair existing timber fenders.
• Repair and replace existing lighting.
• Apply traffic striping to the bridge deck and roadway.

After approval of the above-referenced construction grant funding, in August 2024, the City moved forward with advertising for construction bids. Two bids were received by the deadline: one for $19,869,755 and the other for $25,263,632. The contractor with the lowest bid has agreed to hold its bid price until May 2025.

The City submitted another application to Caltrans for additional funding in October 2024. The application was approved in November 2024 for an additional $10,935,890.

The grant funds cover 88.53% of the Project costs and require an 11.47% local match. The total current cost of the Project is estimated at $28.3 million dollars, leaving a shortfall of $3.3 million dollars. Staff have identified additional eligible funds in the Bridge Construction Fund (Fund 204) in the amount of $300,000. This fund was established in June 1978 when the City adopted a Bridge Construction Development Tax. In August 1989, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1058 N.C. (2d), repealing the tax. Staff recommend that the remaining balance of $300,000 in the Bridge Construction Fund be allocated to Project No. PW9762.

Per Resolution No. 22-222, approved by Council on December 20, 2022, there are nine priorities for the use of revenue generated by Measure P. This Project aligns with City Council's Measure P revenue spending criteria for maintaining critical city services, and therefore, the allocation of Measure P budget in the amount of $3,000,000 is being requested to cover the Project budget shortfall.

If funding is approved and the project is allowed to move forward, staff will present an item to Council for the award of a construction contract. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in May 2025 and the estimated completion date of the project is summer 2027.

If additional funding is not approved or the allocation of additional funding is delayed, the construction contract cannot be awarded and a new advertisement for construction bids will need to be advertised. Staff anticipate this would result in even higher bids and additional budget allocations needed due to increasing construction costs. The project would be at risk of not proceeding due to lack of funding.

Staff recommends amending the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement budget for Project No. PW9762 to recognize and allocate the following:

1. $21,861,377 in additional grant funding from HBP

2. $3,000,000 of Measure P funding

3. $300,000 of Bridge Construction funding

FISCAL IMPACT
This item will amend the Capital Improvement budget with Council's approval. The Mare Island Causeway Project will be funded by Federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRRP) funds, with local match from City funds. Project budget and estimated expenditures are as follows:

ACTION ITEM 9.C.

DATE: April 8, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Melissa Tigbao, P.E., Public Works Director
Mark Helmbrecht, Transportation Program Superintendent
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE FISCAL YEAR 2024-25 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BUDGET TO APPROPRIATE AND EXPEND $10 MILLION OF MEASURE P FUNDING FOR THE STREETS PAVING 2025 MEASURE P PROJECT (PROJECT NO. MP2025) (STEP 2 OF 2)

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution to amend the fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 Capital Improvement Budget to appropriate and expend $10 million of Measure P funding for the Streets Paving 2025 MP Project (Project No. MP2025).

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Improving conditions of Vallejo's roadway network is a key outcome expected to be delivered by the Measure P tax measure. A request for Measure P funding in the amount of $10 million is being made to construct two major pavement rehabilitation efforts during the summer 2025 paving season in an effort to continue the annual, increased investment in improving Vallejo's roadway network.

The notice of intention to amend the budget (step 1) was provided to City Council on March 11, 2025.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
In Fiscal Year 2023-2024, with the Measure P Oversight Committee's recommendation, the City Council approved an allocation of $5M of Measure P funding to initiate a multi-year investment in improving Vallejo's streets. Of the $5M allocated, $1M was to jump-start the planning and engineering of a ten-year plan. The City has contracted with Nichols Consulting Engineers (NCE) to work on the ten-year planning effort, beginning with identifying the paving program for summer 2025 and initiating the engineering of biddable construction packages.

For the 2025 paving program, Public Works directed NCE to develop both a surface seal project using cape seal for local and residential streets, and also a pavement rehabilitation project using grind and overlay paving for arterial and major collector roadways that carry heavier traffic loads with a total construction budget of $10M for both projects.

Public Works provided NCE with a list of major streets that need improvement to include in the early years of the 10-year plan. NCE also queried Vallejo's StreetSaver database for street segments within certain pavement condition index (PCI) ranges that are appropriate for cape seal and grind and overlay pavement treatment. The two lists of street segments for the 2025 paving program that were finalized between NCE and Public Works staff are attached to this staff report.

The cape seal package of streets will resurface over 8 center lane miles of local streets and has 157 curb ramps that will need to be made accessible. The preliminary cost estimate for the cape seal package is $3M.

The grind and overlay package of streets will rehabilitate over three center lane miles of major streets. The street segments identified have 128 curb ramps among them which will need to meet current accessibility

standards. The preliminary cost estimate for the grind and overlay package is $7M. Remaining Measure P budget allocated in Fiscal Year 2023-2024 for curb ramps and engineering will be used to supplement this project.

This request aligns with the Measure P funding priority of repairing deteriorating roads. Staff presented the request to use $10M of Measure P funding for this project to the Measure P Oversight Committee on January 23, 2025. The Committee unanimously voted their support and recommendation to use Measure P budget in the amount of $10M for this project.

Staff recommends the allocation of $10M of Measure P budget to fund these road repair/improvement efforts in 2025. The notice of intention to amend the budget (step 1) was provided to City Council on March 11, 2025.

Upon approval of this budget amendment, the Public Works Department will proceed with finalizing plans and advertising a formal request for bids for the projects that will commence in the summer of 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT
The approval of this item will appropriate $10 million Measure P funds (Fund 228) to the Streets Paving 2025 MP Project (Project No. MP2025) per below:

SOURCE REVENUE EXPENDITURES

Fund 228 - Measure P $10,000,000

MP2025: Streets Paving 2025 MP
Project
($10,000,000)

TOTAL $10,000,000 ($10,000,000)

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c) – Existing Facilities, because the project consists of repair, maintenance, and minor alterations of existing streets for the purpose of public safety and does not add additional vehicle lanes.

PROPOSED CAPE SEAL LIST FOR PROJECT YEAR 2025
ACTION ITEM 9.D.

DATE: April 8, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jason Ta, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AND FINDING TO CONTINUE THE STATE OF LOCAL

EMERGENCY RELATING TO PUBLIC SAFETY STAFFING AND UPDATE ON ACTIONS

TAKEN TO DATE

RECOMMENDATION
Receive the update and confirm the continued existence of the conditions leading to the declaration of a state of local emergency.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
State law requires that the Proclamation of Local Emergency be reaffirmed every 60 days. The 60th day since the last confirmation of the proclamation is April 12, 2025. City Council must reaffirm the proclamation for it to continue.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On July 25, 2023, the City Council unanimously voted to approve a Proclamation of Emergency due to the critical staffing levels at the City of Vallejo Police Department. Below is an update on the items previously discussed when the local emergency was declared: December 17, 2024.

Status of the 4 Phases (as of March 26, 2025):

Phase #1 – Service Model Reduction
This phase has been partially implemented. The department held two town hall meetings to share data and discuss service impacts regarding alarm call response. The department also met with the alarm industry to discuss alarm calls and service impacts. These meetings and discussions concluded on Sept. 7, 2023. At the February 13th council meeting, Council directed staff to proceed with a Verified Response ordinance and protocol. The ordinance has not been updated.

Phase #2 & #3 – Rotation of Officers to Patrol Shifts & Completely Collapsing Traffic and Detective Divisions Phase #2 is completed.

Phase #3 is in progress. Due to stabilization of VPD officer egress, traffic officers and detectives are no longer filling patrol vacancies.

Phase #4 – Modifying All Patrol Shifts to 12-hour Shifts or Another Staffing Model It does not appear that the department will be entering into Phase 4.

Current Staffing Numbers (as of March 26, 2025):

Total Sworn Staffing: 77
Number of Officers Working Patrol: 41

On March 12, 2024, the City Council unanimously adopted a resolution notifying the Solano County Board of Supervisors of the City's desire to receive law enforcement services from the Solano County Sheriff. On April 12, the City of Vallejo provided county counsel with requested data. SB 1379, which would allow the Solano County Sheriff's Office an exemption for retired annuitants to assist the City of Vallejo during its staffing crisis, has been approved by Governor Newsom in September. The county and city leadership are discussing next steps.

Since, July 2024, CHP has been providing additional traffic enforcement when their traffic officers have free patrol time. CHP officers have been conducting this additional presence and enforcement on Vallejo city roadways. Starting in February, the Governor has authorized CHP to provide the department with additional assistance to conduct multiple traffic enforcement campaigns addressing sideshow activity and reckless driving. These added campaigns will deter and disrupt reckless driving and hold the offenders accountable.

The City Manager has concluded a Request for Proposal (RFP) for uniformed unarmed security guards. The city’s existing security company (AX9) was selected. The City Manager's office, the City Attorney's office, Public Work’s, and the police department are finalizing the security guard deployment strategies.

Emergency Conditions Remain:

As stated above on July 23, 2023, the City Council adopted a proclamation declaring a state of local emergency pursuant to Government Code Section 8550 et. seq. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 8630(c) the City Council is required to review the need for continuing the local emergency at least once every 60 days until the City Council terminates the local emergency. Council last reaffirmed the emergency at its February 11, 2025, meeting.

In Jan of 2024, the Vallejo Police Department began coordinated discussions with the Solano County Sheriff’s Office relating to several different staffing models under a contract service agreement. At that time SB1379 was being introduced by State Senator Dodd’s office to create an exemption for the retired annuitant program to assist the COV with its public safety crisis. In Sept of 2024, SB 1379 was approved by Governor Newsom. In December of 2024, the Sheriff provided the COV with a staffing projection proposal for contract services.

In May 2024, the Mayor and City Manager sent letters requesting assistance to Senator Dodd's office and Governor Newsome's office.

Based upon the continuing staffing conditions outlined above, staff requests that the City Council reaffirm the existence of the state of local emergency.

As presented at the July 25, 2023 City Council meeting, the City of Vallejo Police Department is facing a significant staffing crisis and the number of sworn staff continues to decline. When presented with this information, City Council unanimously agreed to approve a Proclamation of Emergency. The proclamation allows the City Manager to quickly implement changes related to police staffing and the continuation of providing police services to Vallejo.

State law requires that it be reaffirmed every 60 days. The 60th day since the last confirmation of the proclamation would be April 12, 2025.

ACTION ITEM 9.E.

DATE: April 8, 2025
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Jason Ta, Police Chief
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING FUNDING FOR A CONTRACT WITH THE

SOLANO COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICERS BY

PROVIDING DIRECTION TO THE CITY MANAGER TO INCLUDE SUCH FUNDING UP TO $5,300,000.00 OR OTHER GREATER AMOUNT AS DIRECTED IN EACH OF FY 25/26 AND 26/27 BUDGETS

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution Approving Funding for a Contract with the Solano County Sheriff's Office for Public Safety Officers by Providing Direction to the City Manager to Include Such Funding up to $5,300,000.00 or Other Greater Amount as Directed in Each of FY 25/26 and 26/27 budgets.

REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The City of Vallejo Police Department has a number of vacant positions, which inhibit service levels.

The Department is filling positions at a steady, modest pace. At the current pace, the Department will not be fully staffed for a number of years. The Department is pursuing a number of strategies to add capability while filling vacant positions. Another strategy is entering a service agreement with the Sheriff’s Office through which the Sheriff’s Office would assign deputies to perform policing in Vallejo.

City staff is requesting approval from the City Council to set aside $5.6 million towards this contract this fiscal year with the anticipation that the remainder of the balance $5.6 million will be set aside from the next fiscal year.

BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Sworn staffing levels at the Vallejo Police Department declined precipitously from 2021 through 2023. In 2021, the Department had 83 total officers. By March of 2023, those numbers had declined to 67 total officers with 36 assigned to patrol. Staffing levels reached such a critical low that in July 2023, the City Council adopted a proclamation of local emergency regarding public safety staffing.

At the conclusion of March 6, 2025 City Council meeting, it was requested that staff provide responses to questions posed by the council regarding this matter. The responses for the questions are listed below:

Questions to be answered by the Sheriff:

Admin overhead – what is included? Breakdown
Admin costs can include: recruitment and hiring to include pre-employment background investigations, payroll processing, extended leave administration, peer support, Records & Warrants, contract development and administration, fiscal support, command staff time (Captain, Undersheriff, Sheriff), Dispatch equipment, maintenance, supervision and management costs, training costs, administrative investigations, use of force reviews, policy review, changes and implementation and PRA requests.

Confirm that if deputies are involved in an incident and are found to have violated policy, the S.O. will take on that liability
The Sheriff has stated that the County would assume liability for loss or damage caused by the willful misconduct of its deputies.

Rationale:

Law enforcement officers are frequently subject to claims and lawsuits due to the nature of their duties.

These claims can arise from routine actions and are not necessarily indicative of any misconduct or negligence by the officers or even violations of policy. Claims made against law enforcement officers, even when unfounded, require significant resources to defend. The legal fees, time, and effort involved in these defenses can be substantial, diverting valuable resources away from the County’s other critical activities. This exposure would not exist for the County but for providing the services requested by Vallejo. Accordingly, the County would require that Vallejo assume the cost of defending any claims other than where it is found that the deputies engaged in willful misconduct. Such indemnity would include a negligent violation of policy.

Ensuring that the data / reporting is coordinated and consistent The Solano County Sheriff’s Office will coordinate and report on Crime Analysis Data, Computer Aided Dispatch information, Axon Body Worn Camera data, and In-car Camera Data (Camera Data will be provided only as required by law) at the request of the City Manager.

If a deputy assigned to Vallejo is on leave (injury, etc.), does the SO backfill? Yes, although staffing levels are subject to availability of personnel without reduction in coverage for County needs and the requirements of SB 1379, which sunsets on January 1, 2027.

What elements of the DOJ agreement and requirements are they concerned about? The City of Vallejo has initiated discussions with the California Attorney General’s Office regarding the Solano County Sheriff’s Office providing police protection within the corporate limits of the City pursuant to a contract with the City. Before proceeding with such a contract, the Sheriff has identified a requirement for a written determination by the Attorney General’s Office that the Sheriff’s Office, while providing such services in Vallejo, will not be subject to the terms and conditions of the Settlement Agreement entered into by the Attorney General and the City of Vallejo on April 8, 2024. Instead, the Sheriff’s Office will maintain its culture of Constitutional Policing and will comply with applicable laws and its own policies and procedures.

Can we do a comparison of policies as it relates to the DOJ reforms? Yes. Solano County Sheriff’s Office policies are available publicly on their website at the following link, which link was previously provided to the City on October 25, 2024 for this purpose. https://www.solanocounty.com/depts/sheriff/pubinfo/policies_procedures_and_training_materials/def ault.asp.

VPD can provide such a comparison which will be discussed during staff's presentation.

Further discussing the officer personnel records, specifically ensuring that deputies with histories of incidents or complaints aren’t assigned.

SOLANO COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICERS BY

PROVIDING DIRECTION TO THE CITY MANAGER TO INCLUDE SUCH FUNDING UP TO $5,300,000.00 OR OTHER GREATER AMOUNT AS DIRECTED IN EACH OF FY 25/26 AND 26/27 BUDGETS

The Sheriff is not opposed to discussing selection criteria for the deputies that will be assigned to assist the VPD.

Confirm that this will be in addition to continued patrol of the unincorporated area The SO will continue to staff two (2) deputies in the unincorporated areas within the COV.

Bargaining responsibilities and timeline from S.O. side The County will meet and confer with the Solano County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Sheriff’s Association. The timing of the meet and confer will depend on the progression of the city/county discussions but prior to entering into a contract with the City of Vallejo. Any potential contract is subject to completion of the meet and confer process.

Estimation of one-time costs currently unknown
When the City of Vallejo is agreeable to all other contract terms and conditions required by the County of Solano, the County will initiate a study for the one-time costs for the Dispatch/ Communications patch.

If we don’t have the full amount, can we develop an alternative model, particularly if we give a specific amount of what we can afford.

No. The Solano County Sheriff’s Office has developed a comprehensive Constitutional Policing Model to support the City of Vallejo Police Department and to meet their emergency staffing needs. This Page 4 model is rooted in the principles of constitutional law, public transparency, and community engagement, ensuring the protection of civil rights while maintaining public safety and operational integrity.

In terms of the operation of the deployment – as the S.O. is staffing up, could it be staggered / phased in so that we could get support sooner?
No. This model does not allow for the phasing in of services. The start-up costs and labor commitment is subject to a six-month preparation period to meet the terms of the contract. The initiation of services is subject to the County’s ability to onboard the staffing required by a contract.

What is the lead time needed for ordering vehicles and do we need to start that now? The ordering of vehicles should occur ASAP and is contingent on the receipt of start-up funding from the City of Vallejo. The delivery and upfitting of marked patrol vehicles for service is estimated at 6 months.

What would be the payment terms of the contract?
The City shall pay the start-up costs, liability costs, reserve and insurance costs up front. Start-up costs are estimated at approximately $1,439,695. Liability, reserve, and insurance costs are estimated at approximately $1,932,700. The City would then pay the Annual Base Cost as monthly installments of 1/12 of the agreed annual base price contract amount. Sheriff’s fiscal staff will forward an invoice to the City by the 15th of each month for services provided in the previous month. The City shall pay the Sheriff within thirty (30) days of receipt of the monthly invoice, with the exception of yearend (June invoice), when the City must forward payment to the Sheriff by the published year-end deadline.

actuals
The table below is responsive to both questions above:
•
•
•

How much can come from OT savings?
From March 1, 2024 to Feb 28, 2025, the VPD accumulated 16,607 hours in overtime. Due to staffing, all eight beats are not generally filled. It is not uncommon for a shift deployment to be staffed between four to six officers. Assuming VPD continues to fill all four beats with an officer, estimated overtime reduction is estimated between 25% to 40% with SO assistance. Our current staffing software is not able to separate the overtime between the hours of SO assistance, consequently, our estimation is based from the total overtime for the year. This would amount to an estimated overtime reduction of 4,151 to 6,642 hours per year.

What are the risk concerns?
Liability costs. While it is not possible to forecast the impact on liability and litigation expenses with certainty, it is reasonable to anticipate that Solano County Sheriff Deputies patrolling an area with a significantly higher volume of criminal activity, and particularly violent criminal activity, would generate liability claims of a similar rate and nature as Vallejo Police Department officers patrolling in those same areas. Based on the number of deputies and sergeants that would be patrolling within the City of Vallejo under the contract, we recommend that approximately $574,000 be budgeted annually for liability payments and $300,000 for expenses associated with litigation defense.

Insurance/Risk. According to the term sheet provided by the Sheriff in December 2024, the estimated subtotal for insurance and liability costs is $1,932,700. This amount includes $500,000 for "administrative costs," $57,700 for estimated workers' compensation premiums, $375,000 for "insurance costs," and $1,000,000 set aside as a reserve to cover any disputed indemnity costs, which may be reimbursed to the City if unused.

Additionally, the Sheriff’s Office is requesting an unspecified amount to cover the time spent by the Claims and Litigation Manager, County Counsel, and Sheriff’s Office staff on processing claims, overseeing litigation, responding to discovery and Public Records Act requests, handling depositions, Pitchess motions, and other related tasks.

What are the bargaining responsibilities and timeline?
Discussions with both the Deputy Sheriff’s Association (DSA) and the Vallejo Police Officers’ Association (VPOA) will need to be consulted under the change in working conditions. The timeline and agreement for this discussion is difficult to estimate until both unions express their concerns with the proposed contract.

Facilitate the contact info / introductions to S.O. for council members that want to meet The Sheriff is awaiting further direction from the County Board of Supervisors and the County Administrator for further direction before entering contract negotiations. The department can facilitate a meeting with the Sheriff and council members once the Sheriff has been authorized to discuss the contract in greater detail.

Can the term sheet with footnotes be re-sent to Council? The term sheet which includes the footnotes has been sent to the entire council.

FISCAL IMPACT
Fiscal impact to the City will ultimately be dependent on upon the final terms of any agreement and an analysis of potential liability. Some potential funding mechanisms of the agreement include General Fund unassigned balance; Measure P; or General Fund expenditure reductions. Note that SB 1379 only allows the Sheriff’s Office to engage retired annuitants beyond the normal 960-hour annual limit through Jan 1, 2027. The proposed contract arrangement with the Sheriff’s Office would be limited term.

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.
