ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Development Services Director has reviewed the proposed activity for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that the activity is not a “Project” as defined under Section 15378(b)(2) of the State CEQA Guidelines because it is a personnel related action; therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not subject to CEQA. Thus, no environmental review is necessary.

DISCUSSION
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Chula Vista and the Western Council of Engineers ("WCE") expired June 30, 2015. During the past several months, negotiating teams representing WCE and the City have worked collaboratively toward the development a mutually beneficial MOU.
The City and WCE bargaining unit have met and conferred in good faith, as required by the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (Govt. Code Section 3500 et. seq.; “MMBA”) and reached the agreement with regards to the MOU term (to expire June 30, 2017), salary adjustments, elimination of EPMC after one year of the agreement and Affordable Care Act (ACA) reopener language. Below is a summary of the agreement reached:
1. Term and Effect: November 3, 2015 to June 30, 2017
2. Salary Adjustments:
• 2% effective the pay period beginning October 30, 2015, after ratification by WCE and approval by City Council of the MOU via resolution in open session.
• 2% in the first full pay period of July, 2016.
• 1% in the first full pay period of April, 2017.
3. Elimination of EPMC October 28, 2016.
4. Incorporate reopener language regarding the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
The proposed salary and benefit enhancements were ratified by a majority of the WCE membership on October 28, 2015.
Termination of Employer Paid-Member Contributions
The City presently pays 8%, on the employee side, for retirement benefits for employees represented by WCE resulting in Employer Paid Member Contributions (“EPMC”) and employees represented by WCE presently pay, on the employer side, 8% for CalPERS optional benefits.
Pursuant to Government Code section 20691, effective October 28, 2016, the City will cease to pay 8%, on the employee side, for retirement benefits for employees represented by WCE, resulting in 8% payment by the aforementioned employees, on the employee side, for employee contributions for retirement benefits (which they had not been required to pay) and said action will result the elimination of EPMC. Correspondingly, the requirement that those employees pay, on the employer side, 8% for optional benefits will simultaneously be terminated.
Compensation Schedule
California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 570.5 requires that, for purposes of determining a retiring employee's pension allowance, the pay rate be limited to the amount listed on a pay schedule that meets certain requirements and be approved by the governing body in accordance with the requirements of the applicable public meeting laws. The Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Compensation Schedule ("Compensation Schedule") was originally approved by the City Council at their meeting of June 16, 2015 and most recently revised and adopted by the City Council on October 6, 2015.
Approval of Resolution E will approve the revised Compensation Schedule to reflect the salary adjustment for the Western Council of Engineers effective October 30, 2015, in compliance with California Code of Regulations, Title 2, Section 570.5.
DECISION-MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has reviewed the decision contemplated by this action and has determined that it is not site specific and consequently, the 500-foot rule found in California Code of Regulations section 18704.2(a)(1), is not applicable to this decision. Staff is not independently aware, and has not been informed by any Council name] member, of any other fact that may constitute a basis for a decision maker conflict of interest in this matter.
LINK TO STRATEGIC GOALS
The City’s Strategic Plan has five major goals: Operational Excellence, Economic Vitality, Healthy Community, Strong and Secure Neighborhoods and a Connected Community. These changes support City Initiative 1.2.3 Retain and attract quality employees under the Operational Excellence goal. Employee compensation is instrumental to recruiting and retaining quality employees. Furthermore, approval of the revised Fiscal Year 2015-2016 Compensation Schedule and its posting on the City's internet website also supports the goal of Operational Excellence as it enhances disclosure and transparency of employee compensation and, as a result, fosters public trust through an open and ethical government.
CURRENT YEAR FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal year 2015-16 implementation costs related to salary increases for the Western Council of Engineers (WCE) is approximately $48,000 for all funds (General Fund and other funds).
General Fund Fiscal Impact -Staff has reviewed revenues in preparation for the fiscal year 2015-16 first quarter financial report and has taken into account (1) current revenue trends, (2) the County’s information regarding assessed property values (AV) for the City of Chula Vista, and (3) updated baseline projections based on fiscal year 2014-15 year-end actuals. In total, projected General Fund discretionary revenues are anticipated to have a net positive increase. The increase is due to improved motor vehicle license fee, Transient Occupancy Tax, real property transfer tax, rental leases buildings revenues, and a net increase in property tax. This increase is partially offset with a projected decrease in the Other Revenue category due to a decrease in anticipated prior year revenues. Staff is recommending that a portion of these unanticipated revenues be allocated to address the salary increases for WCE.
The estimated General Fund implementation costs related to salary increases is approximately $30,000. At this time staff is requesting an appropriation of $30,000 to the General Fund for the recommended salary increases which will be offset by unanticipated revenues.
The tables below outline the appropriation amounts by department and fund.

Appropriations for the Development Services Fund and Sewer Service Revenue (Wastewater) Fund will be made from the available fund balance of each fund.
ONGOING FISCAL IMPACT
EPMC will be eliminated as part of the agreement effective October 28, 2016 and therefore will have no savings generated in the current fiscal year. Savings as a result of the elimination of EPMC, as well as the annualized costs for the salary changes will be incorporated into the fiscal year 2016-17 baseline budget and will be brought to Council for approval as part of the normal budget process.
The Five Year Financial Forecast for the General Fund that was presented to the City Council in May 2015 indicated a deficit during the forecast period. Since then, the City has reached an agreement with MM/PROF/SEIU Local 221 and WCE. The City is projecting a net increase in discretionary revenues for fiscal year 2015-16 that will help mitigate the impact of the wage increases; however, a deficit is still projected for the forecast period. The Five Year Financial Forecast for the General Fund will be updated once fiscal year 2014-15 has been closed, updated revenue information is received, and negotiations with the bargaining groups have concluded. The updated Five Year Financial Forecast will be provided to City Council later this year.
