Agenda Item 5
CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: August 20, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Finance/IT Department
Presentation By: Diona Pope, Accounting Manager
Summary
Subject: Transportation Development Act (TDA) Claim for FY 2023-2024 of $2,149,688 in Local Transportation Funds (LTF)
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing submission of the City’s FY 2023-2024 TDA claim to the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) Fiscal Impact: $2,021,127 in revenue will be received by the City for TDA Fund projects on Yuba City Streets as approved in the FY 2023-2024 CIP Budget Purpose:
To secure funding to be used for road repair and maintenance.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This staff report addresses the City Council’s Strategic Goal of fiscal responsibility.
Background:
The City Council is requested to approve the following allocation of the City’s fiscal year Local Transportation Fund (LTF) revenues as indicated below:
Projects completed in recent years include:
• Striping and marking; and
• Drainage and traffic signal improvements; and
• Road rehabilitation at various locations
1. Yuba City Finding of Apportionment $4,285,374
2. Less: Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG) 128,561
3. Less: Yuba-Sutter Transit Authority (YSTA) 2,135,686 Total $2,021,127
Analysis:
The Sales Tax rate in Sutter County is currently 7.25%. Of this rate, 0.25% is collected by the State of
California and allocated back to each city and county (based on population) for local transportation services and projects. The City of Yuba City’s share of these funds for FY 2023-2024 totals $4,285,374, a decrease of 22.97% from the apportionment of $5,563,030 for FY 2022-2023. Of this amount, YSTA is apportioned a share (in accordance with our Joint Powers Agreement), SACOG receives a portion for planning costs, and the remainder is placed in the City’s TDA project fund (305).
YSTA will use their portion, $2,135,686, to provide community-wide transit services. The YSTA portion has increased 1.59% from last year, and has increased an average of 9% per year over a five-year period, FY 2019-2020 through FY 2023-2024.
The following chart illustrates five years of the City’s and YSTA’s shares of TDA (LTF) claims:
The local share of TDA revenue distribution considers county June 30th LTF balance estimates and must be trued-up for the differential between the estimation and actual in the following year.
Per Michael Rosson from SACOG, the 58.69% apportionment increase from FY 2021-2022 to FY 2022-2023 is due to:
• higher State LTF Fund Balance as of 6/30/21; and
• higher State sales tax revenue projection for FY 2022-2023 Fiscal Impact:
$2,021,127 in revenue will be received by the City for TDA Fund projects on Yuba City streets as approved in the FY 2023-2024 CIP Budget.
Alternatives:
• City Council may determine that LTF revenue is not needed and forego the City’s claim. • City Council may use its seat at YSTA to help identify further unmet transportation needs, which would reduce or eliminate the City’s LTF revenue claim.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing submission of the City’s FY 2023-2024 TDA claim to the Sacramento
Area Council of Governments (SACOG).

Agenda Item 6
CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: August 20, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Administration Department
Presentation By: Diana Langley, City Manager
Summary
Subject: Designation of Voting Delegates for the League of California Cities Annual Conference in October 2024
Recommendation: Designate Mayor Shon Harris to serve as the Voting Delegate for the 2024 League of California Cities Annual Conference in October 2024, and designate Vice Mayor Dave Shaw to serve as an alternate
Fiscal Impact: Account No. 1110-62801 - $5,700 (3 Councilmembers @ $1,900 each) Purpose:
To ensure that Yuba City has a voice regarding policy direction at the 2024 League of California Cities (LOCC) Annual Conference.
Council's Strategic Goal:
The LOCC Conference offers multiple sessions over the three-day conference that address a variety of topics. Participating Councilmembers may select sessions that align and advance Council's goals.
Background:
The LOCC Annual Conference is being held October 16-18, in Long Beach, California. An important part of the Annual Conference is the Annual Business Meeting, scheduled for Friday, October 18. At this meeting, the LOCC membership considers and takes action on resolutions that establish LOCC policy.
Analysis:
In order to vote at the Annual Business Meeting, the City Council must designate a voting delegate. An alternate voting delegate may also be appointed. The LOCC's bylaws state that designating a voting delegate and alternate must be done by City Council action and cannot be accomplished by the individual action of the Mayor or City Manager. The names of the voting delegate and alternate must be submitted to the LOCC by September 25.
Fiscal Impact:
The registration fee for the LOCC Annual Conference is $700 per attendee, plus there are costs associated with airfare, hotel, and meals, estimated at approximately $1,200, for a total estimated cost of $1,900 per Councilmember. Funds were included in the FY 24/25 budget for all five Councilmembers to attend, though only three have registered at this time.
Alternatives:
Designate another Councilmember as the Voting Delegate or alternate.
Recommendation:
Designate Mayor Shon Harris to serve as the Voting Delegate for the 2024 League of California Cities Annual Conference in October 2024, and designate Vice Mayor Dave Shaw to serve as an alternate.

TO: Mayors, Council Members, City Clerks, and City Managers RE: DESIGNATION OF VOTING DELEGATES AND ALTERNATES
League of California Cities Annual Conference and Expo, Oct. 16-18, 2024 Long Beach Convention Center
Every year, the League of California Cities convenes a member-driven General Assembly at the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo. The General Assembly is an important opportunity where city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy.
Taking place on Oct. 18, the General Assembly is comprised of voting delegates appointed by each member city; every city has one voting delegate. Your appointed voting delegate plays an important role during the General Assembly by representing your city and voting on resolutions.
To cast a vote during the General Assembly, your city must designate a voting delegate and up to two alternate voting delegates, one of whom may vote if the designated voting delegate is unable to serve in that capacity. Voting delegates may either be an elected or appointed official.
Action by Council Required. Consistent with Cal Cities bylaws, a city’s voting delegate and up to two alternates must be designated by the city council. Please note that designating the voting delegate and alternates must be done by city council action and cannot be accomplished by individual action of the mayor or city manager alone.
Following council action, please submit your city’s delegates through the online submission portal by Wed., Sept. 25. When completing the Voting Delegate submission form, you will be asked to attest that council action was taken. You will need to be signed in to your My Cal Cities account when submitting the form.
Submitting your voting delegate form by the deadline will allow us time to establish voting delegate/alternate records prior to the conference and provide pre-conference communications with voting delegates.
Conference Registration Required. The voting delegate and alternates must be registered to attend the conference. They need not register for the entire conference; they may register for Friday only. Conference registration is open on the Cal Cities website.
Council Action Advised by September 25, 2024
For a city to cast a vote, one voter must be present at the General Assembly and in possession of the voting delegate card and voting tool. Voting delegates and alternates need to pick up their conference badges before signing in and picking up the voting delegate card at the voting delegate desk. This will enable them to receive the special sticker on their name badges that will admit the voting delegate into the voting area during the General Assembly.
Please view Cal Cities’ event and meeting policy in advance of the conference.
Transferring Voting Card to Non-Designated Individuals Not Allowed. The voting delegate card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates, but only between the voting delegate and alternates. If the voting delegate and alternates find themselves unable to attend the General Assembly, they may not transfer the voting card to another city official.
Seating Protocol during General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
The voting delegate desk, located in the conference registration area of the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, will be open at the following times: Wednesday, Oct. 16, 8:00 a.m.-6:00 p.m. and Thursday, Oct. 17, 7:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. On Friday, Oct. 18, the voting delegate desk will be open at the General Assembly, starting at 7:30 a.m., but will be closed during roll calls and voting.
The voting procedures that will be used at the conference are attached to this memo.
Please share these procedures and this memo with your council and especially with the individuals that your council designates as your city’s voting delegate and alternates.
Once again, thank you for submitting your voting delegate and alternates by Wednesday, Sept. 25. If you have questions, please contact Zach Seals at [email protected].

1. One City One Vote. Each member city has a right to cast one vote on matters pertaining to Cal Cities policy.
2. Designating a City Voting Representative. Prior to the Cal Cities Annual Conference and Expo, each city council may designate a voting delegate and up to two alternates; these individuals are identified on the voting delegate form provided to the Cal Cities Credentials Committee.
3. Registering with the Credentials Committee. The voting delegate, or alternates, may pick up the city's voting card at the voting delegate desk in the conference registration area. Voting delegates and alternates must sign in at the voting delegate desk. Here they will receive a special sticker on their name badge and thus be admitted to the voting area at the General Assembly.
4. Signing Initiated Resolution Petitions. Only those individuals who are voting delegates (or alternates), and who have picked up their city’s voting card by providing a signature to the credentials committee at the voting delegate desk, may sign petitions to initiate a resolution.
5. Voting. To cast the city's vote, a city official must have in their possession the city's voting card and voting tool; and be registered with the credentials committee. The voting card may be transferred freely between the voting delegate and alternates but may not be transferred to another city official who is neither a voting delegate nor alternate.
6. Voting Area at General Assembly. At the General Assembly, individuals with a voting card will sit in a designated area. Admission to the voting area will be limited to the individual in possession of the voting card and with a special sticker on their name badge identifying them as a voting delegate.
7. Resolving Disputes. In case of dispute, the credentials committee will determine the validity of signatures on petitioned resolutions and the right of a city official to vote at the General Assembly.
Sixty days before the
Annual Conference
and Expo, Cal Cities
members may submit
policy proposals on
issues of importance
to cities. The resolution must
have the concurrence of at least
five additional member cities or
individual members.
How it works: Cal Cities
Resolutions and the General Assembly
General Assembly
General Resolutions Policy Committees
Developing League of California Cities policy is a dynamic process that engages a wide range of members to ensure Cal Cities represents cities with one voice. These policies directly guide Cal Cities’ advocacy to promote local decision-making, and lobby against statewide policies that erode local control.
The resolutions process and General Assembly is one way that city officials can directly participate in the development of Cal Cities policy. If a resolution is approved at the General Assembly, it becomes official Cal Cities policy. Here’s how resolutions and the General Assembly work.
The petitioned
resolution is an
alternate method
to introduce policy
proposals during
the annual conference. The
petition must be signed by
voting delegates from 10% of
member cities, and submitted to
the Cal Cities President at least
24 hours before the beginning
of the General Assembly.
Petitioned Resolutions
The Cal Cities
President assigns
general resolutions
to policy committees
where members
review, debate, and recommend
positions for each policy proposal.
Recommendations are forwarded
to the Resolutions Committee.
Who’s who
The Resolutions Committee
includes representatives
from each Cal Cities
diversity caucus, regional
division, municipal
department, and policy
committee, as well as
individuals appointed by
the Cal Cities president.
Voting delegates
are appointed by each
member city; every city
has one voting delegate.
The General Assembly is a
meeting of the collective
body of all voting
delegates —one from
every member city.
Seven policy committees
meet throughout the year
to review and recommend
positions to take on bills
and regulatory proposals.
Policy committees include
members from each Cal
Cities diversity caucus,
regional division, and
municipal department,
as well as individuals
appointed by the Cal
Cities president.
During the General Assembly, voting delegates
debate and consider general and petitioned
resolutions forwarded by the Resolutions
Committee. Potential Cal Cities bylaws
amendments are also considered at this meeting.
Cal Cities policy
development is a memberinformed process,
grounded in the voices and
experiences of city officials
throughout the state.
For more information visit www.calcities.org/general-assembly Prior to the Annual Conference and Expo
Resolutions Committee
The Resolutions
Committee considers
all resolutions. General
Resolutions approved1 by
either a policy committee
or the Resolutions Committee are next
considered by the General Assembly.
General resolutions not approved, or
referred for further study by both a
policy committee and the Resolutions
Committee do not go to the General
Assembly. All Petitioned Resolutions
are considered by the General
Assembly, unless disqualified.2
During the Annual Conference and Expo
1 The Resolution Committee can amend a general resolution prior to sending it to the General Assembly. 2 Petitioned Resolutions may be disqualified by the Resolutions Committee according to Cal Cities Bylaws Article VI. Sec. 5(f).

To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Finance/IT Department
Presentation By: Spencer Morrison, Finance Director
Summary
Subject: Presentation of Investment Report - Quarter Ended June 30, 2024 Recommendation: Note & File Quarterly Investment Report Fiscal Impact: Informational Item Only
Purpose:
To provide information regarding the investment and performance of City funds.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This staff report addresses the City Council’s Strategic Goal of fiscal responsibility.
Background:
In accordance with the City’s adopted Investment Policies, staff prepared the attached investment report for City Council review for the previous quarter (April, May, and June 2024).
Analysis:
Portfolio Highlights:
• As of June 30, 2024, the City's overall investment portfolio (estimated market value) totaled $161,459,570, an increase of $6,235,496 from the previous quarter. • Notable transactions during the quarter that affected cash flow included:
o Property tax remittance, assessments, and CSA-G revenue, $9.6 million o SBFCA expenses $1.0 million; revenue and assessments, $2.7 million; o Sales tax receipts, $4.1 million;
• The portfolio shows a “paper loss” of $539,164 as of June 30th. This represents the amount of value that the City would lose if it were to liquidate its entire portfolio at the end of the reporting period. However, such losses will not be realized if the investments are held until maturity
(which is the City’s general investment strategy).
• The City’s portfolio is still replacing lower yield instruments with higher yields for each maturing bond in this fixed income market, and the overall portfolio yield increased compared to past quarters. The portfolio remains positioned for a higher yield environment by keeping the maturity dates of our purchases in a longer position, currently 1.52 weighted average years to maturity, while remaining watchful for signs of an economic shift. For the quarter ended 6/30/24, 50 investments matured or sold, partially or whole, with an average yield of 1.07%.
Excluding asset-backed security pay-downs, seven investments matured or sold with an average yield of 1.22%. These funds, along with LAIF holdings, were invested in eight instruments with an average yield of 4.67%. The Weighted Average Yield to Maturity of the City’s total investment portfolio increased from 3.83% to 4.09% for the quarter. • The City’s cash flow needs will be met by roughly $70.9 million in liquid assets as of June 30th (approximately 44.8% of the City Held Investments portfolio value) that is currently invested in LAIF, CAMP, First American money management funds, and in the City’s Wells Fargo checking account.
Outlook: The City’s portfolio has enjoyed robust bond yields for several quarters to help offset the inflated cost of goods and services. The Fed will likely cut rates at least once before the end of the calendar year, and we expect the Fed to keep trying to force inflation down to 2%, bringing bond yields down with it. Expect to see the portfolio remain in a longer position in the foreseeable future to benefit from higher treasury bond yields.
Summary Overview: The City’s investment portfolio remains safe and stable. Each investment complies with state law and the City’s formal Investment Policies. Our three primary objectives for the City’s portfolio are safety, liquidity, and yield in order of importance. Staff continue to conservatively look for opportunities in today’s marketplace while remaining focused on our primary objectives.

Summary
Subject: Corporation Yard Elevator Replacement - Contract Award Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution which takes the following actions:
A. Adopts a CEQA Class 1 Categorical Exemption
B. Awards a construction contract to TK Elevator in the amount of $144,850.00 through Sourcewell Contract No. 080420-TKE, with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City
C. Authorizes the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the Project
Fiscal Impact: $166,577.50 – Account No. 1028 (Improvements to Buildings and Grounds)
$144,850.00 – Contract Award Amount
$ 21,727.50 – (15%) Construction Contingency
Purpose:
To replace the existing obsolete elevator at the Corporation Yard with a new elevator.
Council Strategic Goal:
This project addresses the Council Strategic Goal of infrastructure. This project will replace an elevator which is beyond it's useful life, with a new elevator that meets all current State codes, reducing annual maintenance and operations costs while maintaining the building's ADA accessibility.
Background:
The elevator in the Corporation Yard office/shop complex was installed in 1992, coinciding with the building's original construction. Having been in service for 32 years, it has surpassed the typical lifespan of 20-30 years for elevators. In the last five years, the elevator has experienced an increase in malfunctions, occasionally resulting in staff being trapped inside. Moreover, due to its age, replacement parts are no longer manufactured, which complicates maintenance and impacts the elevator's reliability.
Analysis:
The proposed elevator replacement project will replace the current elevator and its mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic components, modernizing the system. This will reduce malfunctions and subsequent repairs, operational costs, and energy use costs. The new elevator system is proposed to be manufactured and installed by TK Elevator Corporation (TKE), a well-known and trusted elevator manufacturing company. Additionally, TKE proposes to subcontract with Ultimate Construction Services (UCS) for Electrical, Fire Life Safety, and other related services, to ensure that the new elevator meets all current state codes, and the project is turn-key.
Sourcewell gathers nationwide bids for products and services resulting in time and cost efficiencies through the procurement process, and better purchasing leverage due to a nationwide scope. The City has utilized Sourcewell on various occasions in recent years for purchases and construction contracts, with great results. Some of these include: purchase of playground equipment, purchase of Public Works equipment, design/build contract for the bike park at Didar S. Bains Park, and design/build contract for the Blackburn Talley LED Stadium Lighting Retrofit.
Staff’s recommendation is to utilize Sourcewell for the procurement of the Corporation Yard Elevator Replacement construction contract, as is allowed under the City’s Purchasing Policies and Procedures, to capitalize on the cost savings of the nationwide contract.
Fiscal Impact:
Based on the Sourcewell quote, the contract amount is $144,850.00. Additionally, staff is requesting a 15-percent construction contingency of $21,727.50 for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise during construction, creating a total project cost of $166,577.50. The project will be funded through CIP Account No. 1028 (Improvements to Buildings and Grounds), as follows:
Account No. Current Balance Proposed Elevator Funding Remaining Balance1 901028 $359,000 $107,000 $252,000
931028 $ 26,000 $ 0 $ 26,000

981028 $201,000 $ 20,000 $181,000
Total $671,000 $167,000 $504,000
Table Notes:
1. Additional funds budgeted in FY 24/25 include Corp Yard roof and in-wall gutter repairs, WWTF lab repairs, and Madden House roof/dry rot repairs.
Environmental:
Staff has performed a preliminary environmental assessment of this project and has determined that it falls within the Class 1 Categorical Exemption set forth in CEQA Guidelines Section 15301, as the replacement of an existing elevator within an existing City facility is defined as a minor alteration of existing public facilities, involving negligible or no expansion. Further, none of the exceptions to Categorical Exemptions set forth in CEQA Guidelines 15300.2 apply to this project.
Alternatives:
1. Direct staff to conduct a formal bid process, which will cause project delay and increased costs.
2. Provide other options to staff for funding the project.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution which takes the following actions:
A. Adopts a CEQA Class 1 Categorical Exemption
B. Awards a construction contract to TK Elevator in the amount of $144,850.00 through Sourcewell Contract No. 080420-TKE, with the finding that it is in the best interest of the City C. Authorizes the City Manager to execute all necessary documents related to the Project Attachments:

10. Project Clarifications
a. For elevator modernization projects, each elevator cab will be weighed prior to the start of the modernization process of each individual unit. If the existing cabs are less or over 5% of the allowable weight and contracted capacity as noted on the original crosshead data tag and/or the elevators are out of balance, any additional scope of work to make code compliant will be determined on an elevator by elevator case basis and a change order for this work will proposed accordingly. In addition, TK Elevator will not be responsible for any building structural items due to elevator exceeding the 5% allowable weight nor the under-sizing of the equipment proposed using the crosshead data tag information. Should additional or higher-rated equipment be required due to a discrepancy in the actual vs. car top crosshead data tag, additional cost may apply and will be provided via change order.
b. The rails and Power Unit shall be retained. If any work is required on retained equipment, a change order will be provided detailing additional required scope and pricing.

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: August 20, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Development Services Department
Presentation By: Ben Moody, Public Works & Development Services Director Summary
Subject: Consideration of an Amendment to the Staff Services Agreement between the City of Yuba City and the Sutter County Local Agency Formation Commission (Sutter LAFCO)
Recommendation: Authorize the Mayor to sign a First Amendment to the Staff Services Agreement between the City of Yuba City and Sutter LAFCO
Fiscal Impact: None. City incurred costs will be reimbursed by Sutter LAFCO per the Staff Services Agreement
Purpose:
To amend the existing Staff Services Agreement with Sutter LAFCO to provide for support personnel, as needed, to assist LAFCO Executive Officer, Doug Libby, in carrying out the duties of LAFCO.
Council’s Strategic Goal:
This item supports the “Enhance Partnerships” and “Fiscal Stability” goals of the Council.
Background:
On July 18, 2023, the City Council approved entering a Staff Services Agreement with the Sutter County Local Agency Formation Commission (Sutter LAFCO) to utilize Deputy Development Services Director, Doug Libby as the LAFCO Executive Officer. This Agreement was separately approved by the Sutter LAFCO Commission on July 13, 2023.
Relatedly, in July 2023, Sutter LAFCO entered into an agreement with Sutter County to utilize County Counsel as LAFCO Counsel and for the County to provide GIS services to Sutter LAFCO.
Analysis:
An amendment to the Staff Services Agreement is proposed to provide for support personnel, as needed, to the Executive Officer. Support will range from clerk duties to assistance processing LAFCO proposals. It is envisioned that Development Services staff will fill this role; however, the Agreement does not restrict the source of City staff support.
As part of preparing this amendment, in coordination with the City’s Human Resources Department,
meetings were held with impacted bargaining units (First Level Managers and Public Employees’ Union, Local 1/AFSCME 57), regarding duties and responsibilities related to LAFCO. As a result of these discussions, First Level Managers and Local 1 staff will provide services to support LAFCO under the direction of the Department Head.
LAFCO will continue to compensate the City at the latest adopted rates consisting of the fully burdened cost (salary, benefits, retirement contributions, etc.) that the City expends for employees.
Under the existing Agreement, LAFCO also pays the actual cost of delivery fees, postage, photocopying, mileage, etc. if City equipment or resources are used.
The existing agreement already provides that LAFCO will incur the cost to defend, hold harmless, and indemnify any claims made by a third party connected with the provisions of services, including claims under the California Government Claims Act naming or otherwise involving the Executive Officer or other person(s) providing services.
Additionally, the agreement specifies that Sutter LAFCO acknowledges that as an employee of the City, there may be circumstances where the Executive Officer, or any other support staff provided by City, may have a conflict. Such circumstances may arise when the City is also an applicant or directly affected by a reorganization affecting the City. Within the agreement, LAFCO expressly recognizes and agrees that personnel provided by the City may continue to work on items for the City even though they may be recused from providing services to Sutter LAFCO for a particular item, and LAFCO expressly waives any claims under such conflict. Finally, if the Executive Officer is required to recuse himself from a proposal, Sutter LAFCO is solely responsible for utilizing other resources to provide services as to the conflicted item.
The proposed amendment will be presented to Sutter LAFCO at its September 12, 2024, regular meeting.
Fiscal Impact:
None. Time spent toward by City staff on LAFCO duties will reduce salary impacts to the City General Fund.
Alternatives:
The City Council may decide not to enter into an amended Staff Services Agreement with Sutter County LAFCO.
Recommendation:
Authorize the Mayor to sign a First Amendment to the LAFCO Staff Services Agreement between the City of Yuba City and Sutter LAFCO.

To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Public Works
Presentation By: Ben Moody, Public Works & Development Services Director Summary
Subject: WTP Alum Storage Tanks Replacement Project (Contract Award) Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution awarding a construction contract to Pacific River Construction of Roseville, CA in the amount of their total bid of $321,000.00 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the contract on behalf of the City, subject to review and approval as to legal form by the City Attorney Fiscal Impact: $377,175.00 – Total Project Cost
$321,000.00 - Contract Award Amount
$48,150.00 - Construction Contingency (15%)
$8,025.00 - City Administration (2.5%)
Purpose:
To maintain the City’s water treatment operational effectiveness through proactive rehabilitation and major maintenance.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This project addresses the City Council's Strategic Goal of improving the City's Infrastructure.
Background:
Aluminum Sulfate (Alum) is utilized in the water treatment process as a coagulant. Alum has been used as a coagulant in the City’s water treatment process since 1969 (original WTP construction). The Alum system consists of two storage tanks, various chemical conveyance pipelines, and pumps that feed the Alum into the treatment process at three points that include a raw water pipeline, raw water rapid mixer chamber, and the membrane filtration system flash mixer.
One of the Alum storage tanks is a 55-year-old rubber-lined steel tank with a capacity of 8,275 gallons.
The second Alum storage tank is a 25-year-old insulated high-density polyethylene (HDPE) tank with a capacity of 9,432 gallons. Both Alum tanks have reached their useful life expectancy, have damaged side walls that actively leak Alum into a secondary chemical spill containment area, and the exposed PVC piping and valving are at risk of failure due to age and ongoing exposure to the elements.
This project aims to replace both tanks with new 8,900-gallon HDPE tanks, tank plumbing, valves, and install new OSHA approved ladders, wind and seismic restraints, and other appurtenances as required
to complete the installation. Additionally, the 25-year-old concrete containment area will receive concrete repairs and a chemical resistant coating in order to maximize its 50-year life expectancy.
Analysis:
The WTP Alum Storage Tanks Replacement Project (Project) was advertised for bids beginning July 17, 2024. Plans and specifications were posted on publicpurchase.com and provided to local builder/contractor exchanges. On August 6, 2024, six (6) bids were received and opened by the City Clerk. A list of the bids received and the Engineer’s Estimate are shown below.
Company Total Bid

Koch & Koch, Inc., Grass Valley $342,776.00
Swierstock Enterprise, Inc. dba Pro Builders, Orangevale $388,800.00 TNT Industrial Contractors, Inc., Sacramento $430,125.00
Engineer’s Estimate $406,000.00
Pacific River Construction of Roseville, CA is the low, responsible, and responsive bidder.
Staff is proposing a 15% construction contingency which equates to approximately $48,150.00 in contingency funds.
Contract administration, including construction management and inspection, will be performed by Public Works Department staff.
Fiscal Impact:
The estimated total project cost is approximately $377,175.00 which consists of the following components:
Construction Contract $321,000.00
Construction Contingency (15%) $48,150.00
City Administration (2.5%) $8,025.00
Total $377,175.00
The project will be funded through CIP Account No. 1324 (Alum Tank Replacement). There is approximately $800,000 in this account.
Environmental:
On September 19, 2023, City Council adopted a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Class 1 Categorical Exemption. There has not been any substantial new information acquired nor changes to the project since it was evaluated, and no further evaluation for this portion of the project is required under CEQA.

Presentation By: Ben Moody, Public Works & Development Services Director Summary
Subject: 2434 Butte House Road Extraterritorial Water Service Agreement Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an extraterritorial service agreement with the property owner of 2434 Butte House Road, Rosa Elva Rojas Coss, for connection to City water service following approval as to legal form by the City Attorney
Fiscal Impact: Water connection fees payable by the property owner to the City estimated to be $19,969.87, plus monthly water usage fees.
Purpose:
To provide a Sutter County resident within the City’s Sphere of Influence with City water service.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This project addresses the City Council's Strategic Goals of improving the City's Infrastructure and providing services that serve and protect residents.
Background:
On June 18, 2024, the owners of 2434 Butte House Road, Rosa Elva Rojas Coss, inquired with City staff regarding options to connect to the City’s water service. The residents expressed adverse reactions to the water supplied by the well on site, and desired to connect to City water in hopes of avoiding these adverse effects. The owner desires to have the house connected to City water, but keep the existing well active for landscape and irrigation needs.
The property is located outside the current City limits, but is within the City’s Sphere of Influence. At the March 5, 2019 City Council meeting, policy was established to allow existing homes within the Sphere of Influence, but outside the City limits, to connect to City services if the parcel is willing to enter into an extraterritorial service agreement.
City staff have consulted with the residents of the property and discussed the process of connecting to the City’s water system. The owner was provided a quote for the fees associated with connecting to City water and is willing to pay the full connection fees. The owner is agreeable to signing an extraterritorial service agreement (Attachment 1, Exhibit A) and will also pay all construction costs to connect to City water. The agreement will establish guidelines for the connection to the City’s water
system, such as documenting any additional equipment needed for preventing a cross connection, the fees schedule, the terms of the agreement, etc.
Analysis:
The City maintains an existing 16-inch transmission line on Redding Ave. It will be the owner’s responsibility to connect to the existing transmission line by coordinating with a licensed plumber and through the City, to complete the water service installation from the existing transmission line to a new meter at the property line. All additional plumbing from the meter to the house will also be the owner’s responsibility.
The owner has an existing well on the property and will need to install a backflow regulator to ensure there is no cross contamination with the City’s water distribution system. The extraterritorial service agreement will require proper equipment to be installed and establish procedures if the area is annexed in the future.
Fiscal Impact:
Water connection fees payable by the property owner to the City are estimated to be $19,969.87, including fees for water service connection, extension, cellular meter, and service fees. The owner will also be assessed monthly usage fees based on the size of the meter installed in accordance with the City’s fee schedule.
Alternatives:
1. Do not approve the agreement for a water service connection. The owner would need to pursue other solutions to improve the well water.
2. Modify the terms of the agreement by providing direction to staff.

EXTRATERRITORIAL WATER SERVICE AGREEMENT
This EXTRATERRITORIAL WATER SERVICE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into this ________ day ________, 2024 (the “Commencement Date”), by and between Rosa Elva Rojas Coss, (“Owner”), and the CITY OF YUBA CITY, a California municipal corporation (“City”).
RECITALS
A. Owner represents it has acquired lawful title to property identified by Sutter County Assessor’s Parcel Number 17-151-011, located at 2434 Butte House Road, Yuba City, CA, 95993 (the “Property”), as more particularly described in Exhibit “A.” B. The Property is located outside of the incorporated boundaries of City within Sutter County, and neither Sutter County nor any other public agency currently provides water service to the Property. The Property is located within the City’s sphere of influence, but outside the City’s existing boundaries.
C. California Government Code § 56133(b) permits a City to provide new or extended services by agreement outside its jurisdictional boundaries but within its sphere of influence, in anticipation of a later change of organization, and with written approval from Sutter Local Agency Formation Commission (“LAFCO”), which may have previously been provided by resolution.
D. The City and Owner both agree it is not necessary for the Property to be annexed into the City at this time.
E. City currently owns and operates a water distribution system and storage tank which conveys potable water originating in its service area through the City’s transmission system. This water distribution system includes a 16-inch transmission main along Redding Ave terminating at Butte House Road. In response to a request by Owner, City recently produced a
Extra Territorial Service and Infrastructure Agreement

quote of the costs for connecting to the City’s water system and the Owner would like to connect to water service at Owner’s cost. The City’s water distribution system is referred to herein as “Distribution System.” The City’s water service line is referred to herein as “City Water Service Line.”
F. Owner has agreed to make payments described herein with respect to the water service for the Property in accordance with the fees and rates set by the City for its users, and to comply with City’s Municipal Code as may be amended from time to time, as more fully set forth herein.
G. This Agreement is intended to comply with LAFCO requirements for an extraterritorial water service agreement with City.
H. The City has identified options to provide water supply to the Owner to accommodate the Owner’s water demands at the Extraterritorial Property, provided the Owner meet certain conditions as set forth below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, agree as follows:
ARTICLE I. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
1. Recitals Incorporated. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.
2. Term, Ownership, and Effectiveness of Agreement: This Agreement shall become effective when executed by both parties hereto.

At such time, the Owner shall have such rights, privileges, and duties, including fees and rates, as all other City citizens for the then current water service classification. The City and Owner agree that should the City ultimately annex the Property in the future into the City, the Owner will not contest annexation. Owner intends that this Agreement shall constitute its written consent to the annexation of the lands described herein and shall bind its heirs, successors, grantees and/or assigns, and all persons having or acquiring any interest subsequent hereto in said lands, and shall constitute by this Agreement a covenant running with the land and binding upon said successors, grantees and/or assigns that they in fact consent to the annexation of said lands to City and shall execute whatever documentation as may be necessary and do all things required of them to effectuate the annexation at such time as City deems annexation to be in its best interest.

Presentation By: Ben Moody, Public Works & Development Services Director Summary
Subject: 2601 Railroad Avenue Extraterritorial Water Service Agreement Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an extraterritorial service agreement with the property owner of 2601 Railroad Avenue, The Lonnie G. Edwards Revocable Living Trust Dated August 7, 2007, for connection to City water service following approval as to legal form by the City Attorney Fiscal Impact: Water connection fees payable by the property owner to the City estimated to be $15,186.41, plus monthly water usage fees.
Purpose:
To provide a Sutter County resident within the City’s Sphere of Influence with City water service.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This project addresses the City Council's Strategic Goals of improving the City's Infrastructure and providing services that serve and protect residents.
Background:
On June 18, 2024, the owner of 2601 Railroad Avenue, Lonnie G. Edwards, trustee of The Lonnie G.
Edwards Revocable Living Trust Dated August 7, 2007, inquired with City staff regarding options to connect to the City’s water service. The owner expressed adverse reactions to the water supplied by the well on site, and desired to connect to City water in hopes of avoiding these adverse effects. The owner desires to have the house connected to City water, but keep the existing well active for landscape and irrigation needs.
The property is located outside the current City limits, but is within the City’s Sphere of Influence, as well as the Bogue Stewart Master Plan area. At the March 5, 2019 City Council meeting, policy was established to allow existing homes within the Sphere of Influence, but outside the City limits, to connect to City services if the parcel is willing to enter into an extraterritorial service agreement.
City staff have consulted with the residents of the property and discussed the process of connecting to the City’s water system. The owner was provided a quote for the fees associated with connecting to City water and is willing to pay the full connection fees. The owner is agreeable to signing an extraterritorial service agreement (Attachment 1, Exhibit A) and will also pay all construction costs to
connect to City water. The agreement will establish guidelines for the connection to the City’s water system, such as documenting any additional equipment needed for preventing a cross connection, the fee schedule, the terms of the agreement, etc.
Analysis:
The existing 14-inch transmission line is currently being extended south on Railroad Ave from Tuscan Road as part of the Barry School Elementary Waterline Extension Project (Project) in 2024. It will be the owner’s responsibility to connect to the new transmission line by coordinating with a licensed plumber and through the City, to complete the water service installation from the new transmission line to a new meter at the property line. All additional plumbing from the meter to the house will also be the owner’s responsibility.
The owner has an existing well on the property and will need to install a backflow regulator to ensure there is no cross contamination with the City’s water distribution system. The extraterritorial service agreement will require proper equipment to be installed and establish procedures if the area is annexed in the future.
Fiscal Impact:
Water connection fees payable by the property owner to the City are estimated to be $15,186.41, including fees for water service connection, extension, cellular meter, and service fees. The owner will also be assessed monthly usage fees based on the size of the meter installed in accordance with the City’s fee schedule.
Alternatives:
1. Do not approve the agreement for a water service connection. The owner would need to pursue other solutions to improve the well water.
2. Modify the terms of the agreement by providing direction to staff.

EXTRATERRITORIAL WATER SERVICE AGREEMENT
This EXTRATERRITORIAL WATER SERVICE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into this ________ day ________, 2024 (the “Commencement Date”), by and between The Lonnie G. Edwards Revocable Living Trust Dated August 7, 2007, (“Owner”), and the CITY OF YUBA CITY, a California municipal corporation (“City”).
RECITALS
A. Owner represents it has acquired lawful title to property identified by Sutter County Assessor’s Parcel Number 23-430-008, located at 2601 Railroad Avenue, Yuba City, CA, 95991 (the “Property”), as more particularly described in Exhibit “A.” B. The Property is located outside of the incorporated boundaries of City within Sutter County, and neither Sutter County nor any other public agency currently provides water service to the Property. The Property is located within the City’s sphere of influence, but outside the City’s existing boundaries.
C. California Government Code § 56133(b) permits a City to provide new or extended services by agreement outside its jurisdictional boundaries but within its sphere of influence, in anticipation of a later change of organization, and with written approval from Sutter Local Agency Formation Commission (“LAFCO”), which may have previously been provided by resolution.
D. The City and Owner both agree it is not necessary for the Property to be annexed into the City at this time.
E. City currently owns and operates a water distribution system and storage tank which conveys potable water originating in its service area through the City’s transmission system. This water distribution system includes a 14-inch transmission main along Railroad Avenue terminating at Tuscan Road. In response to a request by the State Water Board Division
Extra Territorial Service and Infrastructure Agreement
-2-
of Drinking Water regarding water quality, the City will expand its water distribution system and extend the 14-inch transmission main south along Railroad Avenue beginning at Tuscan Road. In response to a request by Owner, City recently produced a quote of the costs for connecting to the City’s water system and the Owner would like to connect to water service at Owner’s cost. The City’s water distribution system is referred to herein as “Distribution System.” The City’s water service line is referred to herein as “City Water Service Line.” F. Owner has agreed to make payments described herein with respect to the water service for the Property in accordance with the fees and rates set by the City for its users, and to comply with City’s Municipal Code as may be amended from time to time, as more fully set forth herein.
G. This Agreement is intended to comply with LAFCO requirements for an extraterritorial water service agreement with City.
H. The City has identified options to provide water supply to the Owner to accommodate the Owner’s water demands at the Extraterritorial Property, provided the Owner meet certain conditions as set forth below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, agree as follows:
ARTICLE I. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
1. Recitals Incorporated. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.
2. Term, Ownership, and Effectiveness of Agreement: This Agreement shall become effective when executed by both parties hereto. The Agreement shall continue in perpetuity or until such time as the Property is annexed into the corporate boundaries of City. At such time, the Owner shall have such rights, privileges, and duties, including fees and rates, as all other City citizens for the then current water service classification. The City and Owner agree that should the City ultimately annex the Property in the future into the City, the Owner will not contest annexation. Owner intends that this Agreement shall constitute its written consent to the annexation of the lands described herein and shall bind its heirs, successors, grantees and/or assigns, and all persons having or acquiring any interest subsequent hereto in said lands, and shall constitute by this Agreement a covenant running with the land and binding upon said successors, grantees and/or assigns that they in fact consent to the annexation of said lands to City and shall execute whatever documentation as may be necessary and do all things required of them to effectuate the annexation at such time as City deems annexation to be in its best interest.

meter. Connection to City’s Water Distribution System by Owner shall be made at this location.
City shall connect, at Owner’s sole cost and expense, the service line from the City’s 14-inch Water Transmission Main on the west side of Railroad Avenue downstream to the Connection Point.
4. Metered Service Connection. The City will install a meter on Owner’s property.
The Owner will pay for installation, maintenance and repair of the meter, unless damaged by the City.

6. System Facilities. Owners shall be responsible for the operation, maintenance and repair of all components of the New Water Service Line downstream from the meter. Under no circumstances shall the City be required to maintain, repair or replace the New Water Service Line unless and until the City, at its sole discretion and option, accepts dedication of the water system or any portion thereof in increments at some future date. Any other water system installed by Owner on the Property connected to a well or other source of water not from the City’s Water Distribution System is not part of the New Water Service Line, and shall be private (“Private Water System”).

Owner will be required to comply with City’s Municipal Code as may be amended from time to time. Owner shall not apply any water obtained from onsite wells to the City’s Water System.
8. No Representation Regarding Water Service, Pressure, or Volume For Any Private Water System. The Owner agrees that there is no guarantee, warranty, or other

Owner agrees to apply to City for a municipal utility water account, maintain its water municipal utility water service account with City in a current status and comply with – and be subject to – City’s Municipal Code, as subsequently updated or amended. Owner acknowledges and agrees that if the water bill is not paid on or before the 45th day after the bill was sent, service may be discontinued. A delinquency charge will be made and collected prior to renewing service following the discontinuance. Payments must be made prior to 8:30 a.m. on the scheduled discontinuance day.

11. Inspection. City shall have the right to inspect and examine the Water Distribution System at any time, including during construction and operation of any portion of the New Water Service Line, and the right to access all water meters.
12. Indemnification of City: To the greatest extent allowed by law, Owner shall indemnify, hold harmless and defend City and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers from any and all loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs, and damages (whether in contract, tort, or strict liability, including but not limited to personal injury, death at any time, and property damage) incurred by City, Owner or any other person, and from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, and actions in law or equity (including attorney’s fees and litigation expenses incurred by City or held to be the liability of the City, including plaintiff’s attorneys’ fees if awarded), arising or alleged to have arisen directly or indirectly out of (a) the making of this Agreement; (b) the performance of this Agreement; (c) the performance of any or all work to be done in and upon the street rights-of-way, upon the Property or premises

CITY OF YUBA CITY
STAFF REPORT
Date: August 20, 2024
To: Honorable Mayor & Members of the City Council;
From: Human Resources Department
Presentation By: Natalie Springer, Human Resources Director Summary
Subject: Contract with Lincoln Financial Group and BPAS for 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust Plans
Recommendation: Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to finalize and execute agreements with Lincoln Financial Group and BPAS to administer the City’s 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust Plans and other documents necessary for the implementation of these plans; and finalize and execute 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust Plan documents Fiscal Impact: Costs are paid for by Plan participants as a percentage of assets.
Purpose:
To enter into contracts for 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans with Lincoln Financial Group and BPAS to provide retirement plan administration and recordkeeping for the City.
Council's Strategic Goal:
This addresses the City Council’s Strategic Goal of Fiscal Responsibility. Selecting an appropriate plan administrator can ensure long-term success for the City’s 457(b) deferred compensation and Section 115 Trust plans on behalf of its participants and beneficiaries.
Background:
The City is committed to providing a comprehensive benefits package for employees. Part of a comprehensive benefits package is offering a deferred compensation plan. As a reminder, a deferred compensation plan helps employees save money for retirement and the Section 115 Trust plans help employees save money tax free for health costs in retirement. (Note: Retirement health savings plans are commonly known as Section 115 Trust plans. The City’s incumbent, MissionSquare, has branded Section 115 Trust plans as Retirement Health Savings Accounts (RHS or RHSA).) Since contributions to the Section 115 trust plans are mandatory, contributions must be negotiated for the City’s represented employees with the various employee organization and reflected in memoranda of understanding.
An independent consultant, Hyas Group, was retained by the City to analyze the City’s 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans and the current administrator for these plans,
MissionSquare. This analysis included a thorough Plan review, along with an evaluation of both investment funds and costs.
The Hyas Group is a leading retirement plan consulting firm that works with over 100 public agencies, including cities and counties, on the west coast. Having been a consultant for the City in the past, the Hyas Group is familiar with the City’s needs and structure and have been successful in providing support to the City specifically with 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans.
The Hyas Group issued a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) on the City’s behalf to provide retirement plan administration, recordkeeping, education, communications, and investment related services for the Plan Sponsor’s 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan and Section 115 Trust plans.
As indicated above, the City has been contracting with MissionSquare (formerly ICMA-RC) to provide record keeping and other administrative services for the City’s 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans. MissionSquare is the incumbent record-keeper, currently providing the City investment and administrative services.
The main objectives of the RFP were:
1. Improve the overall competitiveness of the Plans
2. Evaluate competitive pricing structures and reduce plan expenses
3. Improve participant education and communication services
4. Enhance participant retirement outcomes
5. Offer the most appropriate investment menu for the 457(b) and Section 115 Trust plans There were nine (9) vendors that provided responses to the RFP. After thorough review and scoring by an Evaluation Committee, comprised of bargaining unit representatives, four (4) vendors were selected for further evaluation.
Analysis:
The Evaluation Committee conducted interviews with each of the four (4) finalists. The respective firms presented their teams, discussed their offering, and demonstrated their technology. After all the interviews were concluded, the Evaluation Committee convened to discuss the various offerings, weigh the advantages of each, and determine a recommendation. The Evaluation Committee unanimously selected Lincoln Financial as well as offered a vote of confidence for MissionSquare, the incumbent record-keeper.
The Hyas Group, in conjunction with the Evaluation Committee, conducted an evaluation project assessing the proposals by both Lincoln Financial and MissionSquare. The main goals were as follows:
1. Analyzing the overall competitiveness of the Plans
2. Evaluating competitive pricing structures and reducing plan expenses
3. Improving participant education and communication services
4. Enhancing participant retirement outcomes
5. Offering the most appropriate investment menu for the 457(b) and Section 115 Trust plans
6. Enhancing the formal education for the Deferred Compensation Committee
7. Fee transparency and reducing participant plan expenses for both the 457(b) and Section 115 Trust plans
8. Providing robust on-line transaction and information capabilities for participants and integrated
administration/reporting for the Plans
9. Providing for an orderly and timely transition of assets and services if necessary
10. Formalizing the recordkeeper/Committee working relationship.
The comparisons of the offerings between MissionSquare and Lincoln Financial have been assessed and the selection of Lincoln Financial for administration of the Plans is being recommended.
MissionSquare
MissionSquare has served the City for over 30 years. However, recently there have been service issues at both the participant and plan sponsor level. Many of the recent challenges have been due to recent operational changes by MissionSquare, where they outsourced much of their administrative platform. MissionSquare has communicated they have renewed commitment to the City and are solving their administrative issues.
MissionSquare offers the following:
• Additional support for HR and Finance
• Additional participant support, including 8 days onsite for one-on-one and group meetings • Lower administrative fees than current
• Integrated RHS platform
Lincoln Financial Group
Lincoln Financial is an insurance company based in Fort Wayne, Indiana but has a significant focus on serving as a retirement plan record-keeper to government entities. Lincoln Financial serves several of Yuba City’s surrounding government agency counties such as Placer and Tehama County. Lincoln Financial also provides services to cities (such as the City of Richmond) and special districts. Lincoln Financial offers a robust platform with updated technology, participant support/education, and support for HR and Finance. Lincoln Financial offers the following:
• Additional support for HR and Finance
• Lower administrative fees than currently with MissionSquare • Engaging participant support, including 4 days onsite for one-on-one and group meetings with unlimited virtual one-on-one meetings
• Certified Financial Planner (CFP) planning program free of charge • Robust technology and app for mobile devices
Lincoln Financial uses BPAS to provide additional recordkeeping and administration services. BPAS is a national provider of retirement plans, benefit plans, fund administration, and institutional trust services. BPAS will administer the Section 115 Trust plans on behalf of Lincoln Financial.
Both vendors are neutral to which investments are offered in the plan, therefore whether choosing Lincoln or MissionSquare, the investment menus will be the same, with the exception of the fixed account. The fixed account is a “capital preservation” investment option that offers safety and protection from stock market volatility. It should be noted there is a City Financial Committee comprised of bargaining unit representatives, Hyas Group, and the Finance Department that review investment offerings. This Financial Committee meets quarterly and is engaged in the management of the 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans.
Both Lincoln Financial and BPAS have prepared various form agreements and documents necessary
for these companies to provide services to the City for its 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans, including updated 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plan documents. Some of the documents will require further review and revision prior to finalization.
Therefore, City staff is requesting that the City Council adopt a Resolution, which would approve the material terms of the documents and authorize the City Manager to finalize and execute the documents necessary for the implementation of these plans, with agreements subject to approval of the City Attorney.
City staff anticipates that these plans will be implemented effective November 5, 2024. With the Lincoln Financial implementation, participant accounts will not be significantly impacted through the transition period. As part of the transition, there will be at most a three (3) week blackout period (the black out period is anticipated to be less than seven (7) business days). During the blackout period employees won't be able to make changes to their accounts, but the funds are still invested. The transfer of assets will likely happen overnight, or a day or two at most. The biggest impact has to do with a new website/login and new participant education resources. The City's Financial Committee is excited to expand retirement education services to employees. Lincoln Financial's fund lineup will largely be the same with a few updates that the City's Financial Committee has been briefed on.
Fiscal Impact:
Costs are paid for by Plan participants as a percentage of assets.
Alternatives:
1. Do not execute a contract with Lincoln Financial Group/ BPAS and execute an agreement with MissionSquare, the incumbent vendor providing investment and administrative services to the City.
2. Reject the RFP results and direct staff to work with the Hyas Group to re-submit the RFP.
Recommendation:
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to finalize and execute agreements with Lincoln Financial Group and BPAS to administer the City’s 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust plans; and finalize and execute 457(b) Deferred Compensation and Section 115 Trust Plan documents.

Article IV – Investment of Trust
Section 4.1 Employer Authority
Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.2 or 4.3, the Employer shall possess all discretionary authority for the management and control of the Trust.

Section 4.2 Investment Managers
Discretionary authority for the management and control of all or any portion of the Trust may be delegated by the Employer, in its absolute discretion, to one or more Investment Managers. The terms and conditions of appointment, authority and retention of any Investment Manager shall be the sole responsibility of the Employer. The Employer shall promptly notify Trustee in writing of the appointment or removal of any Investment Manager and the portion of the Trust over which such Investment Manager shall have authority. Any notice of appointment pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall constitute a
City of Yuba City; 457(b); YUBA-001
4 representation and warranty that the Investment Manager has been appointed in accordance with the Plan and that any Investment Manager is an Investment Manager as defined in this Agreement. The Employer may limit, restrict or impose guidelines affecting the exercise of the discretion conferred on any Investment Manager, and shall be responsible for communicating, and monitoring adherence to, any such limitations, restrictions or guidelines.
Section 4.3 Individually Directed Accounts
As to each individually directed account permitted by the Plan, the applicable participant shall possess all of the investment and investment-related authority held by the Employer hereunder, and Trustee shall invest and reinvest such assets pursuant to the directions of the participant, as communicated in writing, via facsimile or by electronic transmission to Trustee by the Administrator or its delegate.
Trustee shall be fully protected in relying upon the instructions of the Administrator or its delegate as to the participant's directions. Trustee shall not be liable to the participant or any of his or her beneficiaries for any loss resulting from any action taken at the direction of the participant.
Section 4.4 Reliance on Employer, Investment Managers, Participants Trustee shall invest and reinvest the Trust pursuant to the directions of the Employer, participants – acting through the Administrator or its delegate - or the Investment Manager or Investment Managers, as the case may be. Trustee shall have no investment responsibility with respect to the Trust, and shall have no duty to inquire into the directions of the Employer, participants – acting through the Administrator or its delegate - any Investment Manager, as the case may be, to solicit such directions, to determine such directions are in compliance with the provisions of the Plan, or to review and follow the investments made pursuant to any such directions, other than to the extent required by law. Any such investment direction shall constitute a representation and warranty that the transaction will not constitute a prohibited transaction or other violation under the Code and that the investment is authorized under this Agreement, the Plan, any other applicable agreement affecting investment authority under the Plan, or any applicable law.
Trustee may refuse to comply with any directions in the event Trustee, in its sole discretion, deems such directions improper by virtue of applicable law. Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or expense which may result from Trustee’s refusal and failure to comply with any such directions.
Section 4.5 Late Day Trading
Trustee does not engage in the practice of late day trading. In the event trade orders made by the Plan or its participants are received before the established cutoff time for Trustee or another party to receive such orders and such orders cannot be processed by the cutoff time, the Employer authorizes Trustee to process these orders after the cutoff time as if they were received and processed before the cutoff time.
Section 4.6 Self-Directed Brokerage Accounts
In the event the Plan now or hereafter provides for self-directed brokerage accounts (“Participant SDBAs”) as an investment option, the Employer and Trustee agree that the provisions set forth on the Self Directed Brokerage Accounts Addendum attached hereto shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement. The Employer agrees to give Trustee reasonable advance notice of its intention to offer Participant SDBAs.
Section 4.7 Plan Expense Account
The Employer hereby directs Trustee to establish a segregated sub-account within the Trust for the purpose of receiving certain amounts from mutual fund sub-transfer agents, administrative service fees, shareholder servicing fees or other revenue or annuity spread revenue (the “plan expense account”).
As authorized by Employer, the plan expense account will be invested in an investment that has an investment objective of capital preservation and liquidity. The Employer hereby agrees that if included as an investment option under the Plan, such investment shall be a group fixed annuity or stable value investment issued by an affiliate of Trustee. If Employer chooses not to include such investment issued by an affiliate of Trustee, then the plan expense account will be invested in such other investment option as designated by the Employer.
City of Yuba City; 457(b); YUBA-001
5 From time to time, Trustee shall receive such fees or revenue and deposit or sweep it into the plan expense account. Such funds shall be considered Plan assets. The activity of the plan expense account shall be provided quarterly to the Employer. Any Plan expense to be paid from the plan expense account shall be at the direction of the Administrator or its delegate to Trustee or its affiliate. At no time shall Trustee or its affiliates have discretion to make deposits into or payment out of the plan expense account. If the balance in the account is to be used as contributions to Plan participants, the Administrator or its delegate will notify Trustee or its affiliate of the amount in the plan expense account that will be used for participant contributions. The Plan’s record keeper will coordinate the transfer of funds from the plan expense account to participant accounts.
Trustee is not responsible for ensuring the accuracy or adequacy of assets transferred to the plan expense account but will rely on its affiliated recordkeeper and service provider, Lincoln Retirement Services Company, LLC, to transfer the agreed amounts to the plan expense account. The Employer will have control over such account and will be responsible for any application or use of such funds in the plan expense account.
Article V – Powers of Trustee
Section 5.1 General Powers

(d) To borrow money from any source as may be necessary or advisable to effectuate the purposes of the Trust.
(e) To generally take all actions, execute all instruments, and exercise all rights and privileges with relation to the Trust, whether or not expressly authorized, as Trustee is directed or in its sole discretion deems necessary or desirable, subject however to the directions by an appropriate party as set forth in this Agreement.
(f) To execute and deliver any vote, proxy, tender offer or similar rights incident to the ownership of any securities held in the Trust, except that Trustee shall exercise such rights only pursuant to the written instructions of the Employer, or the written instructions of plan participants or beneficiaries if the Plan gives such rights to participants or beneficiaries, or by the Investment Manager if an Investment Manager has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.2. If no such written directions are timely received from the appropriate party, Trustee shall not vote or exercise any such rights with respect to such securities.

(i) To purchase or sell, write or issue, puts, calls or other options, covered or uncovered, to enter into financial futures contracts, forward placement contracts and standby contracts, and in connection therewith, to deposit, hold or pledge assets of the Trust Fund. (j) To collect and receive any and all money and other property of whatsoever kind or nature due or owing or belonging to the Trust Fund and to give full discharge and acquittance; therefore, and to extend the time of payment of any obligation at any time owing to the Trust Fund. (k) To transfer, from time to time, all or any part of the Trust Fund to any common, collective or commingled trust fund exempt from taxation under the Code (“Collective Trust”) and/or to enter into the relevant trustee agreement on behalf of the Plan for such Collective Trust, to be held and administered subject to the terms and provisions of the relevant trust agreement, and such trust agreement shall be deemed adopted as part of this Agreement and the Plan to the extent that any portion of the Trust Fund is invested therein.
(l) To apply for and procure from an insurance company as an investment of the Trust such annuity, or other contracts on the life of any participant as the Administrator shall deem proper; exercise, at any time or from time to time, whatever rights and privileges may be granted under such annuity, or other contracts; and collect, receive, and settle for the proceeds of any such annuity, or other contracts as and when entitled to do so under the provisions thereof. (m) To, upon the written direction of the Administrator, enter into a transfer agreement with the Trustee of another qualified retirement plan and to accept a transfer of assets from such retirement plan on behalf of any employee of the Employer. Trustee is also authorized, upon the written direction of the Administrator, to transfer some or all of a participant’s vested account balance to another qualified retirement plan on behalf of such participant.
Section 5.2 Uninvested Cash and Float
With respect to uninvested cash and float, while Trustee may not at any time accept deposits of funds, it is understood that State Street Bank (or any successor thereto) (hereinafter, the “depository bank”), acting on behalf of Trustee, may from time to time, have on hand funds from (i) the receipt of contributions that are awaiting investment or (ii) the sale of assets which are awaiting reinvestment or distribution. While there is not an explicit fee debited from plan assets as float revenue, a noninterestbearing omnibus bank account has been established at depository bank in which to temporarily place cash to facilitate purchases and liquidations into and out of the Plan. The account is a noninterest bearing account, so no explicit direct float income is earned on the cash in transit. However, the account does earn banking credits based on the following formula: The Fed Funds Rate x 1/360 treasury rate. Contributions into the account are generally held in the account for one to two days. Distributions from the account are generally in the account for less than one day for wires and ACH transfers and three or more days for distributions. The length of time cash stays in this account can vary depending on how quickly the check is redeemed by the participant or how quickly payroll is processed. Credits earned are used entirely to pay banking fees and other fees that would otherwise be charged to Trustee and its clients.
Section 5.3 Valuations
Trustee shall periodically determine the market value of the assets of the Trust or, in the absence of readily ascertainable market values, at such values as Trustee shall determine in accordance with methods consistently followed and uniformly applied. With respect to assets without readily ascertainable market values, Trustee may rely for all purposes of this Agreement on the latest valuation and transaction information submitted to it by the person responsible for the investment. The Employer shall cause such person to provide Trustee with all information needed by Trustee to discharge its obligations to value such assets and to account for such assets under this Agreement.
Article VI – Records and Accounts of Trustee
City of Yuba City; 457(b); YUBA-001
7 Section 6.1 Records
Trustee shall keep accurate and detailed accounts of all investments, receipts, disbursements and other transactions in the Trust and all accounts, books and records relating thereto shall be open to inspection and audit at reasonable times during normal business hours by any person designated by the Employer.
Section 6.2 Annual and Other Periodic Accounts
Within ninety (90) days following the close of each Plan year, and within sixty (60) days following the close of each Plan quarter, Trustee shall file with the Employer or the Administrator a written account setting forth the receipts and disbursements and the investments and other transactions effected by it with respect to the Trust during such Plan year or quarter, as the case may be. Unless otherwise requested, recipients will be set up for quarterly statements and access via the web for all trust account reporting. Neither the Employer, the Administrator, any participant nor any other person shall be entitled to any additional or different accounting by Trustee and Trustee shall not be compelled to file in any court any additional or different accounting.
Section 6.3 Tax Returns and Tax Withholding and Reporting Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties, Trustee, acting through its affiliate Lincoln Retirement Services Company, LLC (“LRSC”) shall prepare and file tax returns or other filings with respect to the Trust only if such returns or filings must be filed by Trustee rather than by the Administrator or the Employer. If Trustee disburses funds from the Trust to a Plan participant, Trustee, acting through LRSC, shall withhold and remit to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other applicable taxing authorities the amount of any income tax withholding required by law. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties, the Employer shall be responsible for preparing and filing all other applicable federal and state reports.
Article VII – Trustee’s Rights/Limitation of
Trustee’s Responsibility
Section 7.1 No Implied Duties

Trustee shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation for its services and reimbursement of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the administration of the Trust. Unless and until agreed otherwise in writing by the Employer and Trustee, the compensation of Trustee shall be as agreed upon from time to time among Trustee and the Employer; and in the event that Trustee shall be called upon to render any extraordinary services, it shall be entitled to additional compensation provided it has given Employer prior written notice of such charges prior to rendering any extraordinary services.
Any change in Trustee’s compensation or charges will be applicable only after reasonable notice to the Employer. If such compensation, costs and expenses are not paid by the Employer, they shall be paid from the Trust.
Section 8.2 Taxes
All income or other taxes of any kind whatsoever which may be properly levied or assessed under existing or future laws upon, or in respect of, the Trust shall, at the direction of the Administrator, be paid by Trustee out of the Trust, and, until paid, shall constitute a charge upon the Trust.
