1:30 PM A Coaching Approach to Leadership Development and Organizational Leadership  1:30 PM - 3:00 PM, Mar 13
 Bonsai Ballroom (Portola Hotel)
This workshop intends to focus on how one police department introduced coaching skills for managers to underpin leadership development throughout the organization. It is one thing to send employees off to leadership “training.” But what often happens is they come back to the same old department, and nothing changes. In 2016- 17, I, along with my field operations lieutenants, conducted a research project to examine how a coaching approach to supervision would support leadership development for themselves as well as their sergeants and teams. I initiated an Action Research Methodology (AIM) project as part of MA in Leadership thesis project as one part of the larger organizational initiative to foster a more adaptive capacity in the department. As a result of witnessing the positive effect of applying coaching conversations with my direct reports, peers and even my superior, I saw the potential of developing coaching capacity in managers as one pathway in the organizational- wide leadership initiative, which in could contribute to having a positive impact on the way in which the officers and sergeants police the community. By sharing the story of how this project came to be and the experience shared amongst the participants and the impact the learning had on staff, I intend to offer ideas to the audience on new and creative ways to incorporate coaching skills for supervisors and managers. As our action research project provided an experiment about how to bring coaching skills to management, we learned that it was not about “teaching” leadership per se, rather it is about facilitating learning around leadership activities. In this project, over the course of several meetings, managers would meet with me and learn specific coaching skills and would practice these skills with their direct reports. The mindset in law enforcement is that failure is not an option. While this may be important in crisis situations in the field, the mindset tends to be infiltrate daily organizational life, creating an environment that undermines learning. By engaging in coaching, and toward cultivating an environment more conducive to learning supported them to be a learning organization, participants also found that by embedding learning in day-to-day activities of managing there was a palpable shift in the organization toward becoming more of a learning organization, in which reflection, experimentation, and positivity were more common behaviors. This led participants to realize that they needed to look at their problems through a larger systemic lens and look for ways to integrate a coaching culture as a vehicle for leadership development.  Speaker

Administrative Investigations and Discipline in Use of Force Cases  1:30 PM - 3:00 PM, Mar 13

The legal and political environment in which decisions about use of force investigations and discipline must be made is very different than it was just a few years ago. Civil liability is not necessarily the predominate concern anymore. This session will cover best administrative practices that your agency should follow and how to evaluate issues ranging from the implications of SB 2 to SB 16 to Brady to potential criminal prosecution of officers.

Capitol Hill, The White House, and the Justice Department: How Chiefs Can Work with Both Ends, and the Middle of Pennsylvania Avenue
 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM, Mar 14
 Steinbeck II (Portola Hotel)
Now that the new Congress has been sworn-in and on the job for a couple of months, the team at Brooks Bawden Moore will provide the chiefs with a strategic view of the issues, priorities, and expectations coming out of the new Congress. Chiefs can expect to learn how Capitol Hill will treat law enforcement issues, which bills are likely to move, and where efforts should be focused to have the most impact on the policy debate in DC. While the election didn’t change control of the White House, it did change the political dynamic in Washington and the President must adapt in order to advance his law enforcement agenda. The BBM team will discuss with the chiefs all the various options the White House has available to move the President’s priorities forward with a new Congress. Additionally, the Department of Justice is the main source of federal funding for state and local law enforcement. The BBM team will give a high-level overview of the available grant programs at the COPS Office and the Office of Justice Programs, which will open for applications in the late Spring. The Brooks Bawden Moore team are experienced professionals who serve as trusted advisors to law enforcement, public safety, homeland security, and intelligence practitioners and solution providers. The BBM team has more than 100 years of experience in public safety with a majority of that time working in California law enforcement and Washington, DC. BBM’s reach in Washington is unparalleled with members of the team spending considerable time advising Members of Congress, working with past Administrations, and serving at the highest levels of the Justice Department.

 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM, Mar 14
 Executive Boardroom (Portola Hotel)
We have been given the opportunity to meet once again at the Annual Training Symposium. A meeting room has been reserved for us on Tuesday, March 14, 2023, from 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm at the Portola Hotel in Sacramento.

There is no set agenda for this meeting, it is an opportunity for Chiefs from departments with 30 or fewer sworn staff (although open to anyone that wants to attend) to meet and discuss issues unique to smaller agencies and to discuss challenges that all agencies face but are addressed differently based on resources available. It will also be a great opportunity to bounces thoughts and ideas off fellow chiefs throughout the state. As I am sure we have all learned, there is rarely any issue that comes up that have not been experienced by another chief somewhere at some time. I have been asked to facilitate and report back on any questions or issues that CPCA can assist with or that the group wants them to be aware of however it is your meeting, and we will take it in any direction you would like it to go.

48. Incorporation of FTA Terms. The provisions in this AGREEMENT include, in part, certain Standard Terms and Conditions required by the USDOT, whether or not expressly set forth in the AGREEMENT. All contractual provisions required by the USDOT, as set forth in the Third-Party Contracting Circular are hereby incorporated by reference. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, all FTA-mandated terms shall be deemed to control in the event of a conflict with other provisions contained in this AGREEMENT. The CONTRACTOR shall not perform any act, fail to perform any act, or refuse to comply with any STATE requests which would cause the STATE to be in violation of these Standard Terms and Conditions.

CONTRACTOR will be released from the monitoring and reporting requirements after the STATE has approved CONTRACTOR’s request for disposition of PROJECT property through the ST ATE’s EGM system.

While age and mileage are the primary criteria used to determine the useful life of vehicles, this determination is based on the date the vehicle or other equipment was put into active service, not the actual model year of the vehicle. These criteria are subject to review by the 5310, 5311, or 5339 Program Manager, as applicable, if either factor is less than the value shown below.

52. Property Ownership and Relinquishment.

A. At all times while PROJECT property or equipment is in the possession or control of the CONTRACTOR, the CONTRACTOR shall be the registered owner and the STATE shall be the legal owner ( lien holder). Whenever any PROJECT property or equipment is withdrawn from the PROJECT for any reason, the CONTRACTOR shall immediately notify the STATE. The CONTRACTOR shall not transfer ownership of PROJECT property or equipment at any time while this AGREEMENT is in effect. As lien holder, the STATE may take possession of PROJECT property or equipment due to the CONTRACTOR’s non-compliance with contract terms or by mutual agreement between the STATE and the CONTRACTOR. The STATE shall retain the original Certificate of Title until such time that disposition of PROJECT property or equipment is released by the STATE to the CONTRACTOR or other appropriate party.

B. Whenever any PROJECT property or equipment is withdrawn from the service for any reason prior to meeting the ULS, and at the discretion of the STATE, the CONTRACTOR shall be required to do one of the following:

1. Remit to the STATE, for repayment to the FTA, a proportional amount of the fair market value of the property, which shall be determined on the basis of the ratio of the Federal grant funds paid under this AGREEMENT to the actual purchase cost of the property. Fair market value shall be deemed to be either 1) the unamortized value of the remaining service life per unit based on a straight-line depreciation of the original purchase price or 2) the Federal Share of the sale price.

2. Relinquish the property to the STATE in the same condition as when received by the CONTRACTOR except for reasonable wear and tear resulting from its use. The parties shall thereupon determine the amount of compensation, if any, to be paid by the CONTRACTOR to the STATE in order to avoid any STATE liability to FTA or to others. Upon subsequent disposal of the property, the STATE shall reimburse the CONTRACTOR for its proportional amount of the property value received or identified by the STATE, if any.

3. When PROJECT property is lost or damaged by fire, casualty, or natural disaster, the fair market value shall be calculated on the basis of the condition of the property immediately before the fire, casualty, or natural disaster, irrespective of the extent of insurance coverage. Based on the calculation, the proceeds shall be applied to the cost of replacing the damaged or destroyed PROJECT property taken out of service.

4. If any damage to PROJECT property results from abuse or misuse occurring with the CONTRACTOR’s knowledge and consent, the CONTRACTOR agrees to restore the PROJECT property to its original condition or refund the value of the Federal interest in that property to the STATE.

53. Worker’s Compensation. The CONTRACTOR hereby warrants that it carries Workers’ Compensation Insurance on all of its employees who will be engaged in the performance of this AGREEMENT. If staff provided by the CONTRACTOR is defined as independent contractors, this clause does not apply.

Maria Lara, Assistant City Manager

DATE: January 17, 2023

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or designee to approve a purchase order in the amount of $89,010.88 to purchase two Hybrid SUVs and make a Budget Amendment to the Adopted FY 2022 -2023 Capital Improvement Plan and the Adopted Annual Operating Budget for FY 2022- 2023.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends City Council
1) Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager or designee to approve a purchase order in the amount of $89,010.88 to purchase two Hybrid SUVs for Code Enforcement and Building Department Vehicle Replacement and make a Budget Amendment to the Adopted FY 2022- 2023 Capital Improvement Plan and Adopted Annual Operating Budget for FY 2022-2023.

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which doe s not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

Currently, the Code Enforcement Department is utilizing a 15-year-old pickup truck, and the Building Department needs to replace a 19-year-old pickup truck. Per Project No. 22008 in the approved Capital Improvement Plan Budget, both of these trucks are to be

replaced with hybrid SUVs, which will be more reliable and more fuel efficient than the current trucks they are replacing.

On July/August 2022, the City council approved the purchase of these vehicles thru Sourcewell. However, Sourcewell was not able to deliver the vehicles due to no inventory and production not catching up to demand.

Based on the Jim Burke Ford quote, there is a need for budget amendment#2 to increase the dollar amount by ($ 5,000.00) five t housand dollars. Vehicle prices remain high primarily due to custome rs pay ing more than the listed sticker price , the shortage of supply/microchips still impacting the market, and general inflation.

The budget amendment coming before the Council authorizes the City Manager to make monetary and administrative adjustments necessary to the FY 2022 -2023 Capital Improvement Plan Project #22008 and the Adopted Annual Operating Budget.

Fiscal Impact:

This budget amendment #2 will increase $ 5,000.00 the budget for FY 22/23 CIP Project #22008. The foll owing funding sources will increase the General Fund amount increase from $45,000 to $50,000.00, which will be matched with an SJVAPCD Voucher Grant of $40,000, a new total of $90,000.

Discussion:

Due to the ongoing high- speed rail project , relocation of the existing Municipal water well #9 was required. To facilitate the Well relocation, the High-Speed Rail Authority funded the purchase by the City of the proposed new well site. This 5 -acre parcel is located on the east side of Wasco Avenue and south of Poso Avenue in Wasco (referred to as the “Booth property”). The first phase of th e well relocation work on the Booth Property has been accepted by the city. This work included: drilling, digging, excavating the well, and installing the concrete casing.

The Well relocation requires a second phase of work that will be undertaken and completed by the City. The Phase 2 W ell work shall include the purchase, construction , and installation of the permanent pump, all other necessary well equipment, equipment foundations, blockwork, an ancillary building for pumps and storage, site development, and any other work required to make Well #13 operational.

This project is associated with the site development and equipping of Well No. 13. The work includes but is not limited to the installation of a deep well turbine pump, motor, discharge piping, electrical and motor controls, masonry block, control building, drainage piping, conveyance piping, appurtenances, site improvements, SCADA system, backup generator, and Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and other items that are required by typical construction and the City’s standard specifications.

On December 21, 2022, the City of Wasco received three bids from the following contractors:

FIRM BID TOTAL
Hartzell General Engineering Contractor, Inc. $ 4,315,075.00 W.M. Lyles Co. $ 4,336,437.00 Unified Field Services $ 4,872,860.00

Hartzell General Engineering Contractor, Inc. submitted the lowest qualified bid and is recommended for the award of this project . See attached bid summary and recommendation for further detail.

The lowest bidder came in higher than anticipated. When a contingency is considered, the total costs associated with the site development can possibly total $4,365,075.00. The construction inspection and management will be performed by Dee Jaspar & Associates to provide daily inspection reports, compaction testing, concrete testing, electrical testing, assistance during start -up and testing, as -built drawings, and project close- out documents.

No water treatment is anticipated at this well site; however, this is subject to change based on water quality results and requirements once the well is online and part of the distribution system.

Fiscal Impact:

Consistent with Section 8 and subject to Section 15 of The Agreements between the City of Wasco and the California High-Speed Rail Authority, the City agreed to be responsible for implementing all site development and Well #13 commissioning, including all related 99 of 147
work, upon receipt of the Payment described at Section 14 which payment is made by the Authority in lieu of undertaking the work related to Well #13 itself. Initially, the City will incur costs related to this project out of the water capital outlay fund #31400 -52040 to expedite the completion of this new well site.

DATE: January 17, 2023

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or his designee to approve a B udget Amendment to Reallocate Funds in the amount of $37,000.00 to continue the payment for temporary staffing in the City Manager’s Department

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council:
1) Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager or his designee to make a Budget Amendment to Reallocate Funds in the amount of $37,000.00 to continue the payment for temporary staffing in the City Manager’s Department.

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activ ity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/admin istrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

Due to an unexpected staffing shortage and increased workload, the City Manager’s department utilized temporary staffing that resulted in the need to request a budget amendment of $37,000.00 dollars in order to keep up with the ongoing efforts of providing timely responses for both the City Manager and Transit department.

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

107 of 147
The allocation of funds will be distributed to the City Manager’s budget and the Transportation department.

Staff is recommending the approval of the Budget amendment.

Fiscal Impact:

The fiscal impact will be an increase to the City Manager’s professional services totaling $29,600.00 and an increase to the Transit professional services totaling $7,400

Luis Villa, Public Works Director

DATE: January 17, 2023

SUBJECT: Conduct the Public Hearing and Adopt a Resolution Approving the 5-year water and sewer rate adjustment schedule for customers of record (property owners or tenants).

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council to:
1) Receive reports from the City Manager and Staff
2) Conduct a public hearing to receive comments
3) Start the Tabulation process for the number of protest votes and report from the City Clerk
4) If tabulation is insufficient City Council can Adopt the Resolution; or 5) If tabulation is apparently sufficient, City Council will adjourn the item and schedule a date to complete the validation.
6) Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c) (3), no environmental review is required

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with CEQA and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

The staff has worked with Lechowicz + Tseng Municipal Consultants since October of 2021 to complete a rate study for the City’s sewer and water rates and to identify the revenue necessary to fund expected expenses of current services as well as State Mandated water conservation measures. In order for the revenue to meet the expected needs, the rates will need to be adjusted to provide sufficient funding.

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

111 of 147
Rates are also proposed to be adjusted to recover costs more fairly f rom customers.

Proposition 218 requires that utility rates be equitably assigned to customers based on how they use the water and sewer systems. The sewer rates have not been evaluated since 2007. The proposed sewer rates are based on a detailed analysis o f estimated sewer flows over the past three years and pollutant loading. Residential customers are proposed to receive a sewer rate increase equal to about 2.7%. Sewer rate impacts for non-residential customers are varied. Some are proposed to receive increases, and some are proposed to receive decreases based on their use of the sewer system. For the assignment of sewer service charges, it is proposed that the middle school be charged the elementary school sewer rate. The middle school does not have shower s and has wastewater flows similar to elementary school accounts.

Water rate structure changes are proposed for all customer classes. Currently, the City provides a large base allotment of water with a monthly meter fee. Use in excess of the allotment is charged the volume rate. It is proposed that over the next five years, the base allotment of water is gradually reduced to meet State mandates . Eventually, the base allotment will equal indoor efficient use for residential and commercial customers.

The proposed rate change for February 1, 2023, consists of a decrease in the volume rate from $4.03 to $1.50 per hundred cubic feet (ccf) and an increase in the meter fees of $0.78 for costs related to the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). It should be noted that February 1 rate change includes the first step down in the gradual reduction in the base allotment. The base allotment for single-family residential customers is proposed to be reduced from 25 ccf to 21 ccf.

Charges for these services are property-related charges subject to Proposition 218 and a majority protest proceeding. On October 18, 2022, Council approved the mailing of notices to affected property owners and customers of record and called for a Public Hearing. Notices were mailed out to all the affected properties the first week of November. One written protest per parcel, filed by an owner or tenant of the parcel, shall be counted in calculating a majority protest to the proposed increase in rates. If no majority protest exists, Council may approve the resolution to adopt the proposed water and sewer rates set to start February 01, 2023.

On February 17, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022- 3704 approving guidelines for submission and tabulation of protest, which is atta ched hereto this report for your reference.

The total of net parcels is 5567. In order to meet the majority of the protest , we must receive a total amount of 50% + 1, which is a total of 2784 protest letters.

This evening after the presentation, the City Council will conduct a public hearing and receive comments. After the comments have been heard, the City Council will close the public hearing and start the tabulation process. The City Clerk will tabulate the protest letters if the number of protests received is insufficient to constitute a majority protest; the City Clerk may announce the absence of a majority protest , in which case the protest process ends, and the City Council may adopt the resolution. If the City Clerk determines that an apparent majority protest has been received and will require additional time to validate the protests, she shall so advise the City Council , which may adjourn the item and schedule a date to complete the validation of the protest.

112 of 147
Fiscal Impact:

Adoption of the rate schedules will affect Water and Wastewater Enterprise revenues as projected in the rate study.

DATE: January 17, 2023

SUBJECT: Reorganization of City Council Committee Assignments.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council
1) Reorganize committees as deemed appropriate

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity which does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 150 60(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

Since the reorganization of the City Council members, there are vacant seats on various ad-hoc committees. Staff is recommending reorganizing the committees as deemed appropriate.

The following list are Committees created by the City Council:
• Interviewers for the recruitment of the Boards and Commission (Garcia, Pallares)
• Legislative Bill Introductions from League of Califor nia Cities (Martinez, Reyna)
• Wasco Community Task Force (Reyna, Martinez)
• Illegal Fireworks Committee (Reyna, Lynch)

DATE: January 17, 2023

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution amending the Sewer Rates for the Wasco Elementary Union School District Middle Schools from High School rates to Elementary rates.

Recommendation:

Staff recommends the City Council
1) Adopt a Resolution amending the Sewer Rates for the Wasco Elementary Union School District Middle Schools from High School rates to Elementary rates.

2) Find that this action is not a project as defined under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEAQ) State Guidelines; therefore, pursuant to State Guidelines Section 15060(c) (3), no environmental review is required.

Environmental Review:

The staff has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the CEQA and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA guidelines because the proposed activity consists of a governmental fiscal/administrative activity that does not result in a physical change in the environment; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is required.

Discussion:

Currently, the City has two rate categories for sewer charges for school customers. An annual rate of $9.02 per average daily attendance (ADA) for grammar schools and $10.91 per ADA for middle and high schools. The City is considering sewer rate adjustments as proposed by the rate consultant Lechowicz + Tseng (L&T) Municipal Consultants. School rates are proposed to increase, and the middle /high school rate is proposed to increase to a greater extent than the elementary school rate.

L&T reviewed multiple factors to estimate the schools’ wastewater discharge to apportion rates. Except for large industrial customers, wastewater flow is not metered, so other methods must be developed to estimate flows. A common method is to use winter

STAFF REPORT
City of Wasco

128 of 147
water use as a proxy for sewer flows. During the winter, most customers are not consuming water for outdoor irrigation, and all metered water use is assumed to be used indoors and flow into the sewer system. L&T and Staff reviewed the schools’ number of meters and water usage data. The schools do not have dedicated irrigation meters, and it is difficult to isolate indoor water usage from outdoor irrigation of ballfields. Ultimately, L&T estimated elementary school flows at 8 gallons per student per day, and middle/ junior high/high school flows at 10 gallons per student per day based on typical flows of other cities.

Since submitting the final rate study report to the City, L&T was made aware that the Wasco middle school does not have showers available for its students and has sewer flows more closely in-line with elementary schools than high schools. It is therefore recommended that the middle school be charged the elementary school sewer rate.

The middle school typically pays its annual sewer bill in October or November. Thus, the first proposed sewer rate adjustment (effective February 1, 2023, to June 30, 2023) would not apply. Based on the proposed rates effective July 1, 2023, the difference between the high school rate and the elementary school rate is $2.09 per ADA. Applied to 775 middle school students, the revenue difference to the City in Fiscal Year 2023/24 is about $1,620 or about 0.06% of total estimated Sewer Fund revenues. The amount of forfeit revenue will increase slightly as the school rates increase through July 1, 2026, but the impacts are negligible to the total revenue of the Sewer Fund.
