AGENDA STAFF REPORT
City of West Covina | Office of the City Manager
DATE: December 20, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David Carmany
City Manager
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL AND TRANSMITTAL OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET AND A RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE (“ROPS”) FOR THE PERIOD OF JULY 1, 2023 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2024 FOR THE SUCCESSOR

AGENCY TO THE FORMER WEST COVINA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council, acting as the Successor Agency to the former West Covina Redevelopment Agency, adopt the following resolution:

RESOLUTION NO. 2022-129 – A RESOLUTION OF THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE

FORMER WEST COVINA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING

THE TRANSMITTAL OF AN ADMINISTRATIVE BUDGET AND A RECOGNIZED OBLIGATION PAYMENT SCHEDULE (“ROPS”) FOR THE PERIOD OF JULY 1, 2023 THROUGH JUNE 30, 2024
BACKGROUND:

In accordance with Health and Safety Code Section 34177(o)(1), the Successor Agency is required to file a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule (“ROPS”) annually in order to receive a distribution of property tax increment dollars with which to fund the obligations of the former Redevelopment Agency.

These obligations include bond debt service payments, amounts due under existing agreements with commercial property owners, repayment of amounts borrowed from the Housing Fund to fund property tax shifts mandated by the State, costs of litigation to protect assets of the former Redevelopment Agency, repayment of loans to the City, and administrative costs of the Successor Agency to wind-down the affairs of the former Redevelopment Agency.

While many of these listed items are not necessarily debt, they are considered obligations for purposes of this mandated report and must be listed on the ROPS if they are to be funded by distributions of future tax increment dollars. These items are not debt obligations of the City of West Covina.

DISCUSSION:

The ROPS schedule (Attachment No. 1 – Exhibit A) lists all amounts that will be paid for the period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024. Once the ROPS is approved by the Successor Agency and Oversight Board, it then must be forwarded to the State Department of Finance (DOF) by February 1, 2023. DOF holds final approval authority of the items listed on the ROPS and directs the Los Angeles County Auditor-Controller to distribute tax increment funds to the Successor Agency. Many of the obligations listed on the ROPS are estimates, i.e., variable rate debt service payments, litigation, etc.

The Successor Agency is also required to adopt an administrative budget for each annual period. The administrative budget for the Successor Agency for the period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024 can be found in Attachment No. 1 - Exhibit B. This budget is to be funded by the administrative allowance, which is 3% of the enforceable obligations, after loan payments, or $250,000 annually; whichever is greater. The City will absorb any administrative costs above this administrative allowance. These administrative costs can also be found in the ROPS (Attachment No. 1 – Exhibit A) line item number 12.

LEGAL REVIEW:

Successor Agency Counsel has reviewed and approved the resolution as to form.

Prepared by: Stephanie Sikkema, Finance Director
Additional Approval: Paulina Morales, Assistant City Manager Fiscal Impact
FISCAL IMPACT:

The total amount of funding requested for enforceable obligations from the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (RPTTF) on ROPS 23-24 is $22,621,867 and includes many of the same items that have been previously approved by DOF.

The Successor Agency cannot receive or spend any funds unless the amounts are listed on a Recognized Obligation Payment Schedule. This schedule identifies all outstanding obligations that must be satisfied before the Agency can be dissolved. The obligations listed on this schedule will receive property tax allocations distributed by the County of Los Angeles as their funding source.

If the Successor Agency’s administrative costs exceed the administrative allowance, the excess expenditures will be absorbed by the City.

However, the County billed the City in 2016, 2017, and 2018. Due to turnover of Finance Directors during this time, the amounts were paid from General Fund revenues in error.

This has caused the City General Fund reserves to decline during this time and the State auditors have named the City of West Covina number 12 in the worst financial cities in the state. Much of the decline was due to the errors made by the County in billing the city for these amounts.

City of West Covina | Office of the City Manager
DATE: December 20, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David Carmany
City Manager
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF INCREASE IN HOURLY RATES FOR LIMITED SERVICES PAY

SCHEDULE TO REFLECT RECENT INCREASE IN STATE HOURLY MINIMUM WAGE EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2023
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council:

Approve wage adjustments to limited service positions to bring them into compliance with the State’s minimum wage requirement as of January 1, 2023; and

1. 2. Adopt the following Resolution:

RESOLUTION NO. 2022-128 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

WEST COVINA, CALIFORNIA, ADJUSTING THE HOURLY PAY RATES OF

CLASSIFICATIONS WITHIN THE LIMITED SERVICES PAY SCHEDULE AND REPEALING RESOLUTION NO. 2022-09
BACKGROUND:

On April 4, 2016, Governor Jerry Brown signed SB 3 (Leno, Chapter 4) which gradually raised the State minimum wage to $15.00 per hour in January 1, 2022. Starting in 2023, the state minimum wage will be increased annually for inflation based on the national Consumer Price Index (CPI). The annual inflationary increases scheduled to start in 2023 will be capped at 3.5% regardless of the CPI in any given year. The schedule for minimum wage increases is as follows:

Effective January 1, 2023.....$15.50 per hour.

DISCUSSION:

Effective January 1, 2023, the State minimum wage will increase from $15.00 per hour to $15.50 per hour. Due to this increase, nine (9) classifications within the City’s Limited Services Pay Schedule (i.e., part-time position schedule) now fall below the State’s $15.00 minimum wage requirement and must be adjusted accordingly. Additionally, nine (9) classifications also need adjusting due to compaction.

The Assistant Pool Manager, Lifeguard, Lifeguard Instructor, and Pool Manager positions have been removed from the schedule. There are currently no employees in these positions and the City does not foresee a need for them. If there is a need for these positions in the future, then the City will present to Council the proposed employee positions and salary schedule.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the resolution and approved it as to form.

Prepared by: Maria-Luisa Olea, Assistant Finance Director Fiscal Impact
FISCAL IMPACT:

The Fiscal Year 2022-2023 cost to cover the mid-year minimum wage adjustments is approximately $31,000, which can be absorbed within the existing budget.

It is important to also note in upcoming years, the state minimum wage will be increased annually for inflation based on the national consumer price index (CPI). The annual inflationary increases scheduled to start in 2024 will be capped at 3.5% regardless of the CPI in any given year. These annual increases will impact the City's limited services staffing costs in future budgets.

DATE: December 20, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David Carmany
City Manager
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF THIRD AMENDMENT TO AGREEMENT WITH WEST COAST ARBORISTS, INC. FOR CITYWIDE TREE MAINTENANCE SERVICES
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council take the following actions:

1. Authorize an increase the annual maximum compensation from $485,000 to $985,000 for Fiscal Year 2022-23 only.

2. 3. Adopt the following resolution:

RESOLUTION NO. 2022-115 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF

WEST COVINA, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING A BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR COMMENCING JULY 1, 2022 AND ENDING JUNE 30, 2023 (TREE MAINTENANCE SERVICES) BACKGROUND:

The Public Services Department is responsible for the maintenance of City-owned facilities and public infrastructure. One component of these maintenance responsibilities is establishing and maintaining an efficient and cost-effective tree maintenance program. Implementing an annual tree maintenance program is critical to ensure the proper upkeep and maintenance of the City’s urban forest. These regular maintenance services vary in scope and frequency depending on the size, species and condition of trees.

West Coast Arborists, Inc. (WCA) has been providing tree maintenance services to the City of West Covina since 1997. In 2020, the City issued a Request for Proposals for tree trimming services. On July 7, 2020, the City Council approved the agreement with WCA for a three (3) year term with two (2) one (1) year extensions not exceeding $485,000 annually. In January 2021, the City and WCA amended the agreement to revise the scope of services and increase WCA's compensation for the 2020-2021 Fiscal Year. In August 2022, the City and WCA amended Section 2.1 of the agreement to remove the maximum compensation amount and provide that WCA would be paid in accordance with the approved fee schedule.

DISCUSSION:

Since the City and WCA entered into the agreement 2020, WCA has absorbed the increased costs in labor, fuel, disposal, and insurance. Beginning with FY 2022-23, WCA requested a cost adjustment in the amount of four percent (4%) for the remainder of the term of the agreement. This is below the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of eight and one-half percent (8.5%) which is based on the Department of Labor’s Labor Statistics for the previous 12-month reporting period for the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim region.

LEGAL REVIEW:

The City Attorney's Office has reviewed the resolution and amendment and approved them as to form.

OPTIONS:

The City Council has the following options:

1. Adopt staff’s recommendation; or

2. Provide alternative direction.

Prepared by: Renee M. G. Chavez, Management Analyst I
Fiscal Impact
FISCAL IMPACT:

Pursuant to staff's recommendation, WCA's maximum compensation will increase from $485,000 to $985,000 (an increase of $500,000) for FY 2022-23 only. The increased amount includes the four percent (4%) cost adjustment and will be used to address high risk tree removals, overgrown tree trimming and deferred compromised tree trimming and/or removals needed in within Citywide Maintenance District. The remaining two (2) one (1) year extensions of the WCA contract will increase by four percent (4%) or $19,400 for a total of $504,400 annually.

There is significant need and benefit by approving the additional funds for tree maintenance, including improving the overall appearance of the City and its neighborhoods, reducing exposure to claims for damages from tree related incidents, improved response to customer service to residents who want/expect tree trimming when needed outside of the tree trim schedule and reduction of other tree related hazards (i.e. potentials source of fuel for fires).

The fiscal impact for this request is $500,000 of which there are sufficient funds currently allocated in the amount of $413,906 requiring additional funds of $86,094. Additionally, as expenditures in the Sportsplex Fund are increased, a transfer from the General Fund is also proposed to be increased to offset the fund deficit. Overall, the proposed amendment includes $90,130 in additional expenditures:

AGENDA STAFF REPORT
City of West Covina | Office of the City Manager
DATE: December 20, 2022
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David Carmany
City Manager
SUBJECT: REORGANIZATION OF MAYOR AND MAYOR PRO TEM
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council reorganize in accordance with the order of mayoral succession mandated by Section 2-21 of the West Covina Municipal Code, or modify the order of mayoral succession as permitted by Section 2-21 of the West Covina Municipal Code.

BACKGROUND:

Section 2-21 of the West Covina Municipal Code (WCMC) outlines the duties of the Mayor and the order of mayoral succession, as follows:
"(a) The mayor, sometimes herein referred to as the "presiding officer," shall preserve strict order and decorum at all meetings of the city council. The mayor shall state every question coming before the council, announce the decision of the council on all subjects and decide all questions of order, subject, however, to an appeal to the council, in which event a majority vote of the council members present shall govern and conclusively determine such question of order. Voting on all ordinances shall be by roll call vote called by the city clerk; and the mayor shall be entitled to vote last on all questions.
(b) The mayor shall be the official head of the city for all ceremonial purposes and shall perform all duties imposed upon the mayor by the laws of the state or by ordinance of the city. The mayor shall serve in such capacity at the pleasure of the city council. (c) The city council shall conduct its annual reorganization during its second regularly scheduled meeting of November, except in even-numbered years when the reorganization will occur at the time the city council confirms the official canvass of the municipal election results as required by California Government Code section 36801.
(d) The order of mayoral succession shall be determined by the length of the current term of incumbency, as defined by the date of election. When two (2) or more council members have equal terms of incumbency, the order shall be determined by the highest number of votes received at their election to the city council.
(e) In the event that the position of mayor or mayor pro tem becomes vacant for any reason, succession order shall remain the same, however, if both the mayor and the mayor pro tem have succession order shall remain the same, however, if both the mayor and the mayor pro tem have changed prior to the next regularly scheduled reorganization, the council members appointed to complete the vacant terms shall continue to serve as the mayor and mayor pro tem, respectively, for the term they would have held in the absence of the vacancy.

Thereafter, the outgoing mayor's name will rotate to the bottom of the previous year's mayoral succession list, with all other names moving up one (1) position, in order that the outgoing mayor pro tem shall become the new mayor, and the next council member on the list shall become the new mayor pro tem.
(f) Newly elected council members shall be added to the bottom of the mayoral succession list, following the outgoing mayor in that election year's council reorganization. When there are two (2) or more newly elected council members, the order will be determined by the person who received the highest number of votes at the election.
(g) Any individual appointed to fill a vacancy in a city council seat shall be added immediately to the bottom of the mayoral succession list.
(h) The city council by a minimum of four (4) votes may modify the mayoral succession list or remove and replace the mayor or mayor pro tem at any time." DISCUSSION:

Pursuant to Section 2-21 of the WCMC, the City Council is required to conduct its annual reorganization during its second regularly scheduled meeting of November, except in even-numbered years when the reorganization will occur at the time the City Council confirms the official canvass of the municipal election results as required by California Government Code section 36801.

The current order is:

Dario Castellanos, Mayor
Rosario Diaz, Mayor Pro Tem
Brian Tabatabai, Councilman
Tony Wu, Councilman
Letty Lopez-Viado, Councilwoman

Following the November 2022 election, the new order of succession is as follows, unless modified by 4 votes of the City Council:

Rosario Diaz, Mayor
Brian Tabatabai, Mayor Pro Tem
Tony Wu, Council Member
Letty Lopez-Viado, Council Member
Ollie Cantos, Council Member
Pursuant to the order of mayoral succession, Rosario Diaz is slated to become the Mayor and Brian Tabatabai is slated to become the Mayor Pro Tem.

No vote is required to reorganize in accordance with the order of mayoral succession mandated by Section 2-21 of the WCMC. However, if the City Council wishes to modify the order of mayoral succession, such modification would require 4 votes of the City Council.

OPTIONS:

The City Council has the following options:

Reorganize in accordance with the order of mayoral succession mandated by Section 2-21 of the West Covina Municipal Code; or

1. Modify the order of mayoral succession as permitted by Section 2-21 of the West Covina Municipal Code, which requires 4 votes of the City Council.
