PROCLAMATION
RECOGNIZING MARCH 2026 AS WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH
WHEREAS, every March for Women’s History Month, we honor the women who have shaped our world.

WHEREAS, the 2026 Women’s History Month theme” Leading the Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future ,” guides us to a broader understanding of sustainability beyond environmental concerns. It encompasses financial sustainability, community resilience, leadership succession, and intergenerational equity. Whether developing green technologies, advancing economic justice, strengthening education systems, or building civic power–women are designing blueprints for sustainable transformation to foster systems that support both people and the planet; and
WHEREAS, we must h onor the diverse contributions of women who are leading sustainability efforts across environmental, economic, educational, and social justice movements; and
WHEREAS, we must educate and raise awareness about the important historical and contemporary roles of women in shaping sustainable change; and
WHEREAS, we must inspire and empower individuals and institutions on how to act toward sustainability, equity, and justice in their own spheres of influence; and
WHEREAS, we must connect and build bridges across generations, geographies, and disciplines to foster collaboration, mentorship, and shared learning; and
WHEREAS, we must encourage a long-term vision for our future where women’s leadership is central to thriving communities and a healthy planet.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED, that I, Andrea Sorce, Mayor of the City of Vallejo and the Vallejo City Council do hereby proclaim March 2026 as WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH and encourage all residents to recognize the architects of our future. By understanding the past and supporting the women leading change today, we can all contribute to a more equitable and sustainable world.

DATE: March 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Oscar Alcantar, Interim Public Works Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE
CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BLACK EAGLE FIRE & SECURITY, INC. TO INCREASE THE NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT TO $125,000
AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving a Second Amendment to the Consultant and Professional Services Agreement with Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc. to increase the not-to-exceed amount to $125,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The existing Agreement with Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc., authorized at $100,000, is now fully expended or encumbered. To continue uninterrupted fire alarm system testing, monitoring, inspection services, and as- needed repairs, as well as elevator testing, at City facilities through June 30, 2026, staff recommend increasing the maximum not-to-exceed amount of the Agreement from $100,000 to $125,000.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The John F. Kennedy (JFK) Library, located at 505 Santa Clara Street, experienced significant fire alarm system deficiencies in 2022 that resulted in the Vallejo Fire Department issuing a 21-day notice to correct the system. In response, the City retained Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc. (BEFS) to investigate and remediate the issues. Concurrently, the JFK Library Elevator Project (PW9405) could not achieve project closeout because a successful fire alarm system test was required as part of the elevator certification process. These interrelated issues necessitated immediate corrective action to ensure life-safety compliance and allow the elevator project to be completed.
Given BEFS’s familiarity with the JFK Library fire alarm system and the urgency of restoring compliance, the City entered into Consultant and Professional Services Agreement No. 23PW123 with BEFS in October 2022, with a not-to-exceed amount of $75,000. The agreement provided for fire alarm system testing, monitoring, inspection, and as-needed repairs, as well as elevator testing services at the JFK Library. Pursuant to the City’s procurement provisions, formal bid solicitation was deemed impractical due to the time-sensitive nature of the required inspections and repairs.
Subsequently, staff identified the need to conduct the required annual fire alarm inspections at additional City facilities to maintain regulatory compliance. To address these needs, a First Amendment to Agreement No. 23PW123 was executed in July 2023, increasing the not-to-exceed amount to $100,000 and expanding the scope of services to include fire alarm system services at other City facilities, as needed.
At this time, the full $100,000 authorized under the current agreement has been committed to ongoing fire alarm system services. The agreement is set to expire on June 30, 2026. Staff have recently completed a Request for Proposals and are in the process of executing a new contract for fire alarm system services to

Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE
CONSULTANT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BLACK EAGLE FIRE & SECURITY, INC. TO INCREASE THE NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT TO $125,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
commence on July 1. To ensure continuity of critical life-safety services and avoid any lapse in required inspections, testing, and repairs during the transition period, staff recommends amending Agreement No. 23PW123 with Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc. to increase the maximum not-to-exceed amount from $100,000 to $125,000. This amendment will provide sufficient funding capacity to meet anticipated service needs for the remainder of the agreement term and ensure continued protection of City facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed action to amend the existing Agreement with Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc. to increase compensation by $25,000 for a maximum not-to-exceed amount of $125,000 will have no new fiscal impact as funding is included in the adopted FY 2025-26 budget.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15301 because it involves the monitoring and maintenance of existing fire alarm and elevator systems within the City's existing facilities.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager is hereby authorized to execute the Second Amendment to the Consultant and Professional Services Agreement, with any modification recommended by the City Attorney and the City Clerk to attest the signing of the Agreement.

Description of Proposed Purchase:
Black Eagle Fire & Security, Inc. was hired to investigate and fix the fire alarm system in the JFK Library. The first alarm system had 50 devices with errors, in order to complete the proposed work there needs to be a change to the system panel to allow the company to perform a system test.
The JFK Library Elevator Project (PW9405) will not be able to receive a project closeout unless the system panel demonstrates a system test. Once the test is performed, Vallejo Fire Department and the California Elevator Unit can then complete their audits of our system which in term will help in closing out Project PW9405.
I have reviewed the city-wide contracts, expenditure and encumbrance reports to comply with the VMC.
It is existing vendor but total City-wide expenses are not anticipated to hit the cap of $100,000 in a single FY.

Exemption Explanation:

SYSTEM LICENSING AGREEMENT WITH SOLANO COUNTY AND ANY RELATED
DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO TRANSITION THE CITY OF VALLEJO FROM
PARTICIPATION IN THE EAST BAY REGIONAL COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
AUTHORITY (EBRCSA) TO THE SOLANO COUNTY PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO SYSTEM
AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Public Safety Communications System Licensing Agreement with Solano County and any related documents necessary to transition the City of Vallejo from participation in the East Bay Regional Communications System Authority (EBRCSA) to the Solano County Public Safety Radio System and authorizing the City Manager to execute same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this action will:
• Align the City’s public safety radio communications with Solano County, Vallejo’s primary mutual-aid and emergency response partner
• Improve interoperability and coordination with county and neighboring public safety agencies • Provide a stable and regionally appropriate public safety communications platform • Reduce operational and governance complexity associated with participation in multiple regional systems • Support continuity of Police, Fire, and other essential City services
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Currently, Vallejo is part of the East Bay Regional Communications System Authority (EBRCSA), which primarily serves Alameda and Contra Costa counties. Although EBRCSA has provided a functional regional platform, it was always intended as a temporary solution until Solano County was ready to implement a Solano County system, as set forth in Agenda Item 9.1 of the County Board of Directors meeting on March 6, 2020.
While EBRCSA served its purpose, Vallejo’s public safety operations and mutual-aid relationships are primarily centered within Solano County. The City regularly collaborates with Solano County agencies and neighboring jurisdictions during incidents and emergencies. Solano County owns and operates a Motorola P25 digital public safety radio system and is expanding its infrastructure to enhance coverage in Vallejo and Benicia. The Solano County system offers reliable, redundant, encrypted communications and countywide interoperability.
After reviewing operational alignment, governance considerations, and long-term sustainability, staff recommends transitioning Vallejo’s communication system participation from EBRCSA to the Solano County Public Safety Radio System. Benicia is also transitioning at this time. Operating on the County system will better align Vallejo with its primary response partners and improve coordination during routine operations and large-scale emergency incidents.

DOCUMENTS NECESSARY TO TRANSITION THE CITY OF VALLEJO FROM
PARTICIPATION IN THE EAST BAY REGIONAL COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
AUTHORITY (EBRCSA) TO THE SOLANO COUNTY PUBLIC SAFETY RADIO
SYSTEM AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
The attached proposed Licensing Agreement provides Vallejo with licensed access to the Solano County radio system from July 1, 2026, through July 1, 2031. This agreement is intended as an interim arrangement, with the expectation that Vallejo will pursue a long-term integration or successor agreement with the County before the end of the term. The Information Technology Department has coordinated with Solano County staff and internal City stakeholders to evaluate technical, operational, and administrative requirements. Transition planning will be phased to ensure continuity of service and minimize impacts on public safety.
FISCAL IMPACT
Under the proposed agreement, the City will pay a fixed annual service fee of $299,880, based on 510 radios at $49 per radio per month. This rate mirrors the City’s anticipated costs under the current EBRCSA contract which ends on June 30, 2026. The fixed term of the agreement with Solano County Public Safety Radio System will begin July 1, 2026 through July 1, 2031.
There is no General Fund Impact in FY 2025-2026. Funding of this contract for each fiscal year will be requested during the annual budget process starting FY 2026-2027 as part of the Multi-Year Operational Project IT000.
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.

6.1.8 Insurance: (If applicable) The County will maintain appropriate insurance coverage for its System infrastructure and operations, which may include self-insurance.
This Agreement does not in any way obligate the County to maintain insurance coverage for the City’s equipment or activities. The County will maintain liability insurance for its own activities as required by law or County policy.
7. Responsibilities of the City
7.1 The City (Vallejo) shall have the following responsibilities under this Agreement:
7.1.1 Subscriber Radios and Equipment: The City is responsible for procuring, owning, and maintaining its Subscriber Radios and associated equipment such as chargers, vehicle radio units, antennas, etc.. The radios must be compatible with the County’s P25 System, and meet the technical specifications provided by the County.
7.1.2 Radio Programming: Initial programming of the City’s Subscriber Radios with the County’s System information (i.e., talkgroups, frequencies, encryption keys, etc.) is the responsibility of the County under contract with Motorola. The County will provide the necessary System data and coordination, but the City will ensure their radios are made available on a timely basis so they are correctly programmed and updated. Subsequent programming of the City’s’ Subscriber Radios with the County’s System information (i.e., talkgroups, frequencies, encryption keys, etc.) is the responsibility of the City. If the City lack technical capacity, they may request programming assistance from the County as an Optional Service per Section 8.
7.1.3 Dispatch Console Equipment: Initial programming of the City’s consoles with the County’s System information (i.e., talkgroups, frequencies, encryption keys, etc.) is the responsibility of the County under contract with Motorola. Subsequent to initial programming, the City is responsible for the operation and maintenance of its own dispatch center console equipment and any other communications infrastructure on the City’s side of the Demarcation Point. This includes console hardware, dispatcher workstations, logging recorders, and the connection from the console to the Demarcation Point. The City will ensure its console equipment is compatible with the System interface and meets any technical requirements specified by the County. If the City lacks technical capacity, they may request programming assistance from the County as an Optional Service per Section 8.
7.1.4 Adherence to Operating Guidelines: The City shall ensure that its personnel use the System in accordance with any reasonable operating procedures or protocols established by the County (e.g., radio discipline, use of talkgroups, emergency button use,
7 etc.). The City will train its radio users on proper operation within a multi-agency radio system to prevent harmful interference or misuse.
7.1.5 Payment of Fees: The City will timely pay the Service Fees as described in Section 5. The City is only responsible for its own fees.
7.1.6 Incident Reporting: If the City experiences any significant radio communication issue, interference, or suspected malfunction that may be related to the System, it shall promptly notify the County’s technical contact so that the issue can be investigated and resolved collaboratively.
7.1.7 No Unauthorized Changes: The City shall not modify or attempt to modify any part of the County’s System. The City will not add any infrastructure such as additional sites or channels to the System or connect third-party equipment to the System without the County’s prior written approval. Any integration of City-owned infrastructure (e.g., a City- owned radio site) with the System would require a separate agreement or amendment.
7.1.8 Compliance and Cooperation: The City will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in its use of the System. The City will cooperate with the County in any investigations or troubleshooting of System issues and will make knowledgeable staff available for coordination as needed.
8. Optional Services by the County
8.1 This Agreement primarily covers the City’s access to and use of the System. The Parties recognize that the City may have needs for additional technical services related to its radio equipment (“Optional Services”). The County may, at the City’s request and under separate arrangements, provide such Optional Services. Examples of Optional Services include:
8.1.1 Subscriber Radio Programming and Setup: If the City requests, the County’s radio technicians can perform programming of the City’s Subscriber Radios or assist with configuring them for the System over and above the programming services set forth in Section 7.1.2 above. Any such work, and any charges for it, would be detailed in a separate memorandum or work order agreed to by the Parties.
8.1.2 Console Configuration and Maintenance: The County could assist with configuring the City’s dispatch console to interface with the System (for instance, setting up talkgroup selections, templates, or network configurations) in addition to that set forth in section 7.1.3 above. Ongoing maintenance or support of console equipment can also be provided if separately agreed. These services would be outside the scope of the core System access license and may involve additional fees or a separate support contract.
8.1.3 Radio Repair Services: If the City does not have its own radio repair capabilities, the City may engage the County’s radio shop to repair or service Subscriber
8 Radios or related equipment. Again, the terms for any such repair services would be handled under a separate agreement or on a fee-for-service basis, not covered by the yearly Service Fee.
8.1.4 Training: The County could provide training sessions for City personnel on use of the System or new features. For example, if a System upgrade introduces new user features. Training arrangements would be coordinated as needed and are typically provided as a courtesy or at the agreed cost if they require significant resources.
8.2 Any Optional Services requested by the City and provided by the County shall be documented in writing (for example, in a letter agreement, addendum, or services contract) including the scope of services and any costs. The City is under no obligation to procure any Optional Services, and its decision to do so or not to do so will not affect its rights under this Agreement to access the System. Likewise, the County is not obligated by this Agreement to provide Optional Services and may decline a request, unless otherwise required by a separate agreement.
9. Transition to Full Integration
9.1 The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement serves as an interim solution until full integration of the City into a long-term regional radio system framework. Pursuant to that understanding:
9.1.1 Future Planning: The County, in consultation with the City, will continue to plan for the incorporation of the City as a permanent participant in the Solano County radio system (or any regional/joint system that may supersede it). This may involve exploring governance options such as Radio-as-a-Service, joint powers agreements, cost-sharing for future infrastructure, and inclusion of the City in long-term system expansion or upgrades.
9.1.2 Good Faith Negotiation: No later than one year prior to the expiration of this Agreement (by June-2030), the Parties shall initiate good faith discussions on the framework for the post-2031 arrangement. This could result in an extension of this Agreement, a new agreement, or another mechanism to ensure the City’s continued radio communications service without interruption.
9.1.3 Continued Service Commitment: The Parties intend that the City will not be left without radio service upon the expiration of this Agreement. The Parties commit to work towards a seamless transition. If unforeseen delays occur in finalizing the post-2031 integration, the Parties may mutually agree to an extension of this Agreement as necessary to bridge any gap.
9.2 Technology Updates: By 2031, technology or industry standards may have evolved. The County will keep the City informed about any next-generation radio system developments (e.g., new P25 phases, LTE interoperable systems, etc.) that could influence the integration
9 plan. The City will be given opportunity to participate in any pilot programs or planning meetings about the future system as it relates to their needs.
9..3 Non-Binding Intent: This Section 9 outlines the Parties’ intentions and planning efforts.
Except for the obligation to negotiate in good faith as noted above, this Section 9 is a statement of intent and is not intended to create a binding obligation to enter a future agreement. Any actual integration or new partnership will be set forth in a future written agreement approved by both Parties’ governing bodies.
10. General Provisions
10.1 Indemnification: The City agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the County, its officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, or costs (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of the City’s use of the System or any services under this Agreement, except to the extent caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the County. The County similarly agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City, its officers, employees, and agents from and against claims, liabilities, damages, or costs arising out of the County’s ownership and operation of the System under this Agreement, except to the extent caused by the City’s sole negligence or willful misconduct.
10.2 Limitation of Liability: In no event shall either Party be liable to the other for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages (such as lost profits, lost communication time, or loss of data) arising out of or related to this Agreement or the use of the System, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. This Section does not limit either Party’s obligation to make payments owed under this Agreement or to indemnify as provided above.

12 Exhibit A: Project Description
1. The Solano County P25 System Expansion Project is a strategic initiative to enhance interoperable emergency communications within Solano County, beginning with a new simulcast cell serving the City of Vallejo. This expansion forms a key phase in the County’s long-term plan to develop a comprehensive, countywide digital radio network using Motorola’s ASTRO® 25 Phase 2 technology.
This project establishes a 4-site, 6-channel simulcast subsystem, fully integrated into the existing Solano County P25 Core located at the Solano County Data Center. The system operates in the 800 MHz band and provides enhanced coverage, capacity, and security for public safety communications in the southwest region of the county.
2. Project Focus Area: Vallejo and Benicia
The immediate purpose of this expansion is to deliver reliable portable radio coverage throughout the cities of Vallejo and Benicia. These areas are served by a new simulcast cell connected via a digital microwave backhaul loop. Each site supports voice and data operations using both FDMA and TDMA-capable radios.

5. Part of a Larger System Expansion
a. While this project centers on Vallejo and Benicia, it is part of a larger countywide vision for Solano County. The overall conceptual plan includes:
13 i. The existing Northeast Simulcast subsystem, serving Fairfield, Vacaville, and Suisun City
ii. Several standalone ASR sites (e.g., Hiddenbrooke, Red Top, Rio Vista, Kregor) providing coverage in rural or terrain-limited areas iii. A countywide MPLS microwave backhaul network, supporting high- throughput, resilient communications
iv. Potential future integration with regional systems such as EBRCSA, Yolo, and Sacramento County for seamless mutual aid
b. This phase lays the foundation for scalable future growth and broader regional interoperability.
6. System Standards and Reliability
All new repeater sites are built to Motorola R56 guidelines, with emergency backup power (e.g., generator, battery, solar, etc.) to ensure continuity during power outages. The system supports Dynamic Dual Mode (DDM), enabling both FDMA and TDMA operation across channels. Equipment installed at each site includes tower-mounted amplifiers, microwave gear, and simulcast synchronization hardware.
7. Conclusion
The Solano County P25 Expansion Project enhances public safety communications by providing secure, reliable, and interoperable radio coverage to Vallejo and Benicia. It represents a critical milestone toward a fully integrated, countywide system — scalable for future needs and responsive to the evolving demands of modern emergency response.

FROM: Lance David, Interim IT Director
SUBJECT: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A THREE-YEAR SMALL GOVERNMENT
ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT WITH ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, INC. (ESRI) FOR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS) SOFTWARE
AND SERVICES, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAME
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving a three-year Small Government Enterprise Agreement (SGEA) with Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) for enterprise Geographic Information System (GIS) software, licensing, maintenance, and support services, in an amount not to exceed $270,900, and authorize the City Manager to execute same.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this action will:
• Ensure uninterrupted enterprise GIS services used Citywide. • Maintain continuity of mission-critical applications integrated with the City’s permitting, public safety, infrastructure, planning and development, and water department systems. • Provide predictable annual subscription pricing under an enterprise licensing structure. • Preserve standardized GIS architecture across departments, reducing duplication and administrative overhead.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
BACKGROUND
The City of Vallejo uses Esri’s ArcGIS platform as its enterprise Geographic Information System to support mapping, spatial analysis, infrastructure planning, asset management, regulatory compliance, and operational decision-making across all major departments.
On November 15, 2022, the City Council approved a three-year enterprise license agreement with Esri. That agreement is now set to expire. The proposed action renews the City’s participation in Esri’s Small Government Enterprise Agreement (SGEA) for an additional three-year term.
The 2025 Esri Quotation #Q-561472, dated November 4, 2025, provides for a three-year subscription at $90,300 per year, for a total contract amount of $270,900. The SGEA provides enterprise-wide access to:
• ArcGIS Enterprise (Advanced and Standard)
• ArcGIS Online user types
• ArcGIS Pro licensing

Subject: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING A THREE-YEAR SMALL GOVERNMENT
ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT WITH ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS RESEARCH INSTITUTE, INC. (ESRI) FOR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS)
SOFTWARE AND SERVICES, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO
EXECUTE SAME
• Enterprise extensions (Spatial Analyst, 3D Analyst, Network Analyst, Geostatistical Analyst, Data Reviewer, Image Analyst, Workflow Manager, and others)
• 125,000 ArcGIS Online service credits
• Tier 1 and Tier 2 technical support
• Product updates and maintenance throughout the term
The agreement term is three (3) years.
DISCUSSION
GIS is a foundational enterprise platform that supports numerous critical City systems and operations, including:
• Central Square Community and Land Management permitting system • NexGen Maintenance Management System
• SeeClickFix Report
• Water system modeling and engineering layers
• Computer-Aided Dispatch (Police and Fire)
• Crime data dashboards
• Fiber and broadband infrastructure mapping
• Smart Route street sweeping software
• General Plan, zoning maps, and parcel data
• District election boundaries
• Public-facing mapping applications on the City website
Esri’s enterprise model allows the City to deploy software where needed without separate departmental procurements, reducing procurement overhead and ensuring consistent architecture, data standards, and security controls.
The agreement includes ongoing maintenance and technical support, including Tier 2 support provided directly by Esri and structured Tier 1 Help Desk requirements within the City. The subscription model also ensures access to product updates, lifecycle support, and evolving ArcGIS capabilities throughout the term.
This renewal does not change vendors or materially alter scope of services; it continues the City’s standardized GIS enterprise framework under updated pricing.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of the three-year agreement is $270,900, structured as follows:
Fiscal Year Annual Cost
Year 1 $90,300
Year 2 $90,300
Year 3 $90,300
Total: $270,900
The City has set aside funding during FY 2025-2026 annual budget to cover the $90,300. Funding of this

TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE THE COUNCIL TO APPROVE A PROCLAMATION RECOGNIZING MARCH 2026 AS RED CROSS MONTH
RECOMMENDATION
Vallejo City Council to approve a proclamation recognizing March 2026 as Red Cross Month.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The Red Cross provides critical support services during emergencies and natural disasters. The Red Cross is not a government agency. The Red Cross is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the public to deliver its mission. A proclamation raises awareness of the mission and need. Granting of this proclamation is in accordance with Vallejo City Council Policy and Procedure for Issuance of Ceremonial Documents.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
The mission of the American Red Cross is to prevent and alleviate human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors.
The Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides comfort to people affected by disasters; supplies about 40% of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives with First Aid and CPR classes, distributes humanitarian aid; and supports veterans, military members and their families.
In 2025 in Solano County 220 American Red Cross volunteers helped 74 families affected by home fires by providing emotional support, addressing immediate needs and helping families recover with emergency financial assistance or community resources; 506 community members were served through home fire and disaster preparedness education, the agency hosted 17 blood drives and collected 336 units of lifesaving blood; provided international humanitarian aid; and supported 571 military members and their families
This proclamation will be presented to the Red Cross at a date and time in March yet to be determined.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
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.

PROCLAMATION
RECOGNIZING MARCH 2026 AS RED CROSS MONTH
WHEREAS, in March we celebrate American Red Cross Month by honoring our neighbors who make its humanitarian mission possible in Vallejo, CA. Every day, their acts of kindness change lives, bringing relief, comfort and hope when help can’t wait. This compassionate spirit runs deep in our community, just as it has for 145 years through the American Red Cross; and
WHEREAS, today, kindhearted individuals in our community exemplify Clara Barton’s commitment as they step up through the Red Cross in Solano County to provide a beacon of hope for our neighbors in need. Through their voluntary and selfless contributions, they make a lifesaving difference in people’s darkest hours — whether it’s delivering shelter, food and comfort during and after disasters; providing a safe, lifesaving blood supply for patients facing conditions like cancer treatments, childbirth complications and traumatic injuries, assisting military members, veterans and their families with 24/7 global support; or empowering individuals with skills like first aid, CPR, and disaster preparedness education that save lives; and WHEREAS, last year in Solano County 220 American Red Cross volunteers helped 74 families affected by home fires, provided emotional support, addressed immediate needs and helped families recover with emergency financial assistance or community resources; 506 community members were served through home fire and disaster preparedness education; the agency hosted 17 blood drives and collected 336 units of lifesaving blood, provided international humanitarian aid, and supported 571 military members and their families; and WHEREAS, these collective efforts are a powerful reminder that the strength of our community lies in our shared commitment to one another. As we mark Red Cross Month, we celebrate our local heroes and resolve to continue lifting each other up, so no one faces an emergency alone.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED, that I, Andrea Sorce, Mayor of the City of Vallejo and the Vallejo City Council do hereby proclaim March 2026 as RED CROSS MONTH and encourage all residents to recognize this organization’s honorable humanitarian mission.

ACTION ITEM 9.A.
DATE: March 10, 2026
TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Nalungo Conley, Assistant City Manager/Acting Finance Director SUBJECT: PRESENT OPTIONS AND RECEIVE FEEDBACK TO ADDRESS THE FORECASTED FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2026-2027 GENERAL FUND BUDGET SHORTFALL AND PROVIDE NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FY 2025-2026 BUDGET (STEP 1 OF 2)
RECOMMENDATION
Present options and receive feedback on the steps to address the forecasted Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-2027 General Fund budget shortfall and provide Notice of Intent to amend the City's FY 2025-2026 Adopted Budget for Mid-Year adjustments.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION
The City annually reviews revenues and expenditures in the middle of the fiscal year (Mid-Year) to adjust budgeted revenues, expenditures, and transfers based upon actual experience during the first six months of the fiscal year and updated projections for anticipated revenues and expenditures during the second half of the year. The Mid-Year budget requests that staff are submitting reflect items that staff have identified as priority to maintaining critical business services. Staff have also reviewed the forecasted FY 2026-2027 General Fund budget shortfall and will be presenting options regarding how to close the shortfall at the March 10, 2026 Council meeting. This notice of intent is the first step in a two-step process to amend the budget in order to reflect changes in revenues, expenditures, transfers, and staffing that have been identified since the approval of the FY 2025-2026 Adopted Budget in June 2025 and subsequent amendments made by City Council.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
At the February 24, 2026 Council meeting, staff noted, as part of the discussion of the FY 2025-2026 Mid-Year budget item, that the City is forecasted to have a General Fund budget shortfall in FY 2026- 2027 exceeding $20 million. Council directed that staff present strategies to create a structurally balanced FY 2026-2027 General Fund budget at the subsequent regular Council meeting (March 10, 2026), as context within which Council could consider FY 2025-2026 Mid-Year budget requests. Staff is in the process of identifying balancing options, which will be presented at the March 10, 2026 Council meeting. Staff is currently researching the following balancing options:
1. Seeking additional grant funding to cover certain expenses currently borne by the General Fund
2. Using one-time resources to pay for certain one-time expenses
3. Paring down services and supplies expenditures
4. Using the OPEB trust to pay for retiree medical expenses
5. Eliminating new contributions to the City's Pension Trust
6. Modifying the confidence level target for workers’ compensation funding
7. Reducing overtime
8. Eliminating positions that are paid by the General Fund in various departments

Subject: PRESENT OPTIONS AND RECEIVE FEEDBACK TO ADDRESS THE FORECASTED FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2026-2027 GENERAL FUND BUDGET SHORTFALL AND PROVIDE NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FY 2025-2026 BUDGET (STEP 1 OF 2)
Council can provide direction as to which of the balancing options they would like staff to further research and incorporate into the proposed FY 2026-2027 budget.
Staff also seeks Council action on Mid-Year adjustments and requests. The information originally presented on February 24, 2026 is again presented below, including General Fund revenue and expenditure projections for FY 2025-2026 and changes of note for other funds.
I. General Fund FY 2025-2026 Projections

B. FY 2025-2026 General Fund Expenditure Changes
II. Other Funds: Changes of Note
III. Staffing Changes Included in Mid-Year request
I. General Fund FY 2025-2026 Projections
The summary of all of the mid-year changes discussed below is included in Exhibits 1 and 2.
The proposed mid-year adjustments for FY 2025–2026 reflect updated revenue projections, technical corrections, and additional appropriations necessary to align the budget with current operational needs. The beginning fund balance has been adjusted upward based on prior-year end reconciliations, and revenues reflect a modest increase consistent with updated projections.
Technical adjustments address corrections not incorporated in the FY 2025–2026 Adopted Budget and are now being included to more accurately reflect projected salaries, overtime, and other expenditures. Salary appropriations are reduced to reflect the incorporation of salary savings directly within departmental budgets rather than as a separate line item. Overtime appropriations are increased to align with year-to-
date spending trends and current operational service demands. The proposed increase provides a more accurate projection to ensure sufficient funding through the remainder of the fiscal year.
Service and supply appropriations are adjusted upward to account for additional expenditures, and transfers and subsidies are updated to reflect reclassifications.
Overall, total expenditures increase by $902 thousand, resulting in a revised ending fund balance of $25.7 million. This maintains a reserve level of 18.44% of expenditures and supports continued fiscal stability.

Subject: PRESENT OPTIONS AND RECEIVE FEEDBACK TO ADDRESS THE FORECASTED FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2026-2027 GENERAL FUND BUDGET SHORTFALL AND PROVIDE NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FY 2025-2026 BUDGET (STEP 1 OF 2)
A. FY 2025-2026 General Fund Revenue Changes
City staff worked with the State, County, and our consultants to provide reasonably accurate and cautious forecasts for expected revenue trends.
This report summarizes projected General Fund revenue changes for FY 2025–026 compared to the adopted budget. Overall, total General Fund revenues, excluding Measure P, are projected to increase slightly by $328,369 (0.2%). This modest increase is primarily driven by anticipated property tax revenues, which are projected to exceed the adopted budget by $1.04M (2.5%). Property tax growth is offset by lower projections in other revenue sources, including sales tax, utility user tax, cannabis tax, and real property excise tax. Below is the breakdown of changes:
• Property tax revenue is anticipated to increase by $1.04M compared to the prior projection, reflecting updated data provided by Solano County’s most recent report.
• Based on estimates from the City’s consultant, HdL, sales tax and Measure B/V revenues are projected to decline by approximately $983K compared to the adopted budget, primarily due to an audit adjustment related to a vehicle manufacturer, the closure of three grocery stores, and reduced purchasing activity. Overall sales tax performance continues to be influenced by broader economic factors, including inflation and interest rates, labor costs, price volatility in taxable goods, and shifts in consumer spending.
• Utility Users Tax (UUT) revenue is projected to decrease by $323K following an updated FY 2025– 2026 forecast. The revision reflects historical month-to-month trends applied to FY 2024– 2025 actuals, resulting in a $785K decline in Cable revenues, partially offset by increases of $290K in Gas & Electric and $172K in Telephone revenues. The Cable decline aligns with ongoing statewide cord-cutting and shifts to non-taxable streaming services, while the Gas & Electric increase reflects rising utility rates and consumption trends. Telephone revenue

continues to decline year-over-year, but the revised forecasting method produced a slight increase for this cycle due to how the average % change interacts with recent billing patterns. • The Cannabis Tax is anticipated to decline by $578,000 as a result of recent audit findings, which allow certain cannabis operators to apply approved tax credits that offset taxes otherwise payable to the city.
Departmental program revenues are expected to increase by $1.54M primarily due to the Fire department securing an additional reimbursement from the SAFER grant and CalOES reimbursements.
B. FY 2025-2026 General Fund Expenditure Changes
Mid-year Departmental budget changes of note are as follows:
Fire:
• An increase of $85,000 is needed for gas and electricity budget to align with the prior-year actual expenditures and current year-to-date spending trends. • An increase of $40,000 is required to support a variety of mission-critical software that meets multiple operational needs. This software includes tools for EMS reporting (field site data, mapping, visual information, and Telestaff integration), incident management (CAD interface, agency licensing, TC Mobile, etc.), and other applications essential for managing and responding to emergencies effectively.
Police:
• The increase of $225,000 is attributable to a contractually authorized rate adjustment implemented by the vendor for per-vehicle evidence impound
storage. Vehicles are required to remain in storage pending completion of the associated legal proceedings.
• Additional funding of $80,000 is necessary to replace a portion of the department’s computers and laptops. The proposed replacements will bring the department into alignment with the City’s equipment replacement policy, which provides for the annual replacement of 20 percent of this equipment, resulting in the replacement of approximately 50 devices.
This approach helps ensure that equipment does not become obsolete and remains compliant with current security standards supported by the Information Technology Department. • An increase of $55,950 is related to the VirTra simulator, a training tool used to support critical-incident preparation. The training provided through the simulator aligns with California Department of Justice mandates related to use-of-force and de-escalation. In addition, the simulator serves as an important resource for community engagement and is used regularly for programs such as the Citizens’ Academy and Leadership Vallejo. Given its dual role in meeting mandated training requirements and strengthening community understanding, this item should be considered an essential resource.

Subject: PRESENT OPTIONS AND RECEIVE FEEDBACK TO ADDRESS THE FORECASTED FISCAL YEAR (FY) 2026-2027 GENERAL FUND BUDGET SHORTFALL AND PROVIDE NOTICE OF INTENT TO AMEND THE FY 2025-2026 BUDGET (STEP 1 OF 2)
• An increase of $85,000 is requested to support multiple contracts, including real estate broker services, property management services, and agreements that facilitate pop- up events throughout the City.
Public Works:
• An increase of $19,000 is required to cover irrigation costs for the remainder of the fiscal year, as well as additional funding needed to address tree repairs and other storm-related damage. • An increase of $86,000 reflects unanticipated security costs resulting from the library fire system becoming inoperable. As required by the Vallejo Fire Department, a fire watch was implemented in August 2025.
• An increase of $20,000 is needed in the IT000 account to support the Public Works Department’s IT and software needs. Actual annual software expenditures for Public Works consistently exceed the ongoing budget allocation. Public Works typically spend approximately $125,000 annually, and this increase aligns the budget with actual historical expenditures.
City Council:
• An increase of $2,500 is requested to cover City Council meeting meal costs for the Mayor and City Council Members for the remainder of the fiscal year.
Human Resources:
• An increase of $123,000 addresses increased recruitment activities in FY25-26, covering costs for executive recruitments, public safety promotional assessments, and recruitment tests for various positions. It includes expenses for supplies, meals for raters and panels, career fair supplies, and venue usage. These funds ensure the successful recruitment and assessment of essential personnel to support the city's operations.
• This increase of $157,000 is requested due to unexpected cost increases with vendors, including operational assessments and HR consulting services related to position development and compliance with FEHA and ADA requirements.
• A request for $144,000 will cover professional services with Alliant to assist with the benefits administration functions, which currently consists of two specialized staff members responsible for critical and time-sensitive processes, including employee enrollments and life event changes, vendor invoice reconciliation, COBRA and ACA compliance tracking, leave coordination, reporting, and employee communications. Both staff members are currently on extended leave, and there is no internal backup with the technical expertise to assume these duties. While HR has attempted to redistribute responsibilities with limited consultant guidance, existing staff do not have the capacity to absorb the workload without impacting other essential HR operations. As these positions are not vacant, they cannot be backfilled. To prevent disruption to employee benefits and ensure compliance, the City’s Third-Party Administrator is proposed to provide six months of temporary support to assume core functions, stabilize operations, reduce backlog, and develop process documentation. Without this assistance, service levels will remain strained, and delays may continue to adversely affect employees and departments.
