ITEM EXPLANATION:
Representatives of the City and the Carlsbad City Employees’ Association (CCEA) have
met and conferred in good faith and have reached an agreement regarding wages, hours,
and other terms and conditions of employment for general employees. The term of the
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with CCEA shall be from January 1,2000,
through December 3 1,2002, and includes the following:
The MOU specifies that all CCEA represented employees will receive a four percent

the pay period inclusive of January 1,200O.
The MOU also specifies that the job classifications listed in Attachment D of the
Memorandum of Understanding will receive an additional two percent (2%) salary
increase effective January 1,200O. This increase will also be retroactive to the pay
period inclusive of January 1,200O.
Per the MOU, represented employees will receive a four percent (4%) salary increase
effective the pay period to include January 1,200l and an additional four percent
(4%) salary increase effective the pay period inclusive of January 1,2002.
Representatives from CCEA and management have been working as part of a health
benefits task force to review options and provide input to the City’s health benefits
consulting firm on alternatives/options in benefit plan design and delivery. CCEA
agrees to continue to participate in the task force and to work to build consensus on
health insurance plan design changes.
The parties agree to reopen the contract by March 3 1,200O to meet and confer
regarding 1) the City’s contribution to the health insurance program for active
employees and 2) the City’s contribution, if any, to retiree medical insurance. The
City does not intend to compel CCEA represented employees to change health
insurance providers as a result of this reopener.
Health insurance contributions are made by the City and by the employees as a
percentage of the carrier’s total premium, and the health insurance percentage
contributions paid by the City and the CCEA employees will be held constant during
PAGE 2 OF AB# 15,636
calendar year 2000. Should the City remain with the current health insurance
providers (Reliastar, Sharp and Kaiser), CCEA agrees that effective January 1,2001,
employee deductions will be increased by 2.5% for each level of coverage.
l Within one pay period following Council adoption of this agreement, the vacation
accrual maximum will be increased from 240 to 320 hours. Effective January 1,
2001, each CCEA represented employee will be given the option of converting up to
80 hours of vacation to cash, provided that the employee used at least 80 hours of
vacation during the previous calendar year (2000).
l Employees who are participating in a City-sponsored, internal internship program will
be compensated for the performance of the duties of the higher job classification on
the first working day following the temporary reassignment of the performance of
duties of the higher classification.
l The list of scheduled paid holidays has been revised to combine Lincoln’s Birthday
and Washington’s Birthday into one President’s Day holiday and to include Martin
Luther King, Jr.‘s Birthday as a scheduled holiday effective calendar year 2001.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The projected annual cost to the City for the salary adjustment is estimated at $602,000.
The fiscal year 1999/2000 impact will be $301,000. Funds to cover this increase will be
transferred from the Council Contingency to cover the salary increase for General Fund
employees. Funding will be transferred from fund balances for employees paid from
other funds. Funding for the 2000/01 fiscal year will be included in the 2000/01 budget
process.
For CCEA represented employees, the additional cost to the City due to health insurance
increases is expected to be approximately $53,000 annually. The fiscal year 1999/2000
impact will be $26,500. Funds to cover this increase will be transferred from the Council
Contingency to cover the health insurance increases for General Fund employees.
Funding will be transferred from fund balances for employees paid from other funds.
Estimated revenues and appropriations in the Health Insurance Fund should be increased
by $26,500 to cover the overall increase in health insurance costs for CCEA represented
employees for the 1999/2000 fiscal year. Funding for the estimated revenues and
appropriations for the 2000/01 fiscal year will be included in the 2000/01 budget process.

Article 17 Iniured on Dutv
Occupational Sick Leave is leave with pay that is granted to employees who have sustained a
work related injury or illness and are temporarily disabled from work.
Any general employee that sustains a work related injury or illness and becomes temporarily
disabled from work as a result, may receive their full salary, in lieu of the State mandated
temporary disability benefit, for a period of up to forty-five (45) calendar days for any single
incident. The periods of temporary disability need not be continuous.
Any aggravation of a pre-existing occupational injury or illness will be treated as such and not as
a new injury. In this situation, the employee will not be entitled to any occupational sick leave
benefit which exceeds the original maximum of forty-five (45) calendar days.
The City reserves the right to determine whether occupational sick leave will be granted.
Granting of occupational sick leave will be subject to the same procedures and standards
(including predesignated physicians, resolution of disputes over benefits, use of Agreed Medical
Examiners, etc.) as used in workers’ compensation matters.
An employee that is still temporarily disabled after the forty-five (45) calendar days have been
exhausted will be paid at the rate established by the California Labor Code for such disabilities.
However, the City shall supplement the State rate, up to the employee’s full salary level, by
utilizing any vacation, sick, or compensatory leave that the employee has accrued. Once the
employee’s accrued leave has been exhausted, the employee will be compensated at the State rate
for the balance of the temporary disability period.
Wages alone will be the basis of computation for occupational sick leave.
Any general employee who is temporarily disabled from work because of a work related injury
or illness will continue to accrue sick leave and vacation leave for the period of incapacitation
that does not exceed forty-five (45) calendar days. However, once the maximum occupational
sick leave benefit has been exhausted [forty-five (45) calendar days] the employee will no longer
accrue sick or vacation leave for the duration of his/her absence.

A. Review the personal tool inventory as meeting the requirements of “essential tools.”
B. Provide a recommendation to the Superintendent of an alternate tool as a substitute for

employee in such lower class, but may not bump regular City employees already
in that lower classification.

qualify for such vacancies prior to an open or promotional recruitment.
(1) Duration of Reinstatement and Reemnlovment Lists: The eligibility of individuals on the
reinstatement and reemployment list shall extend for a period of two years from the date

(3) The salary paid to an employee who is reemployed shall be equivalent to the
salary plan at the time of reemployment. If the employee chooses to be
reemployed in a classification which has a salary range lower than the
classification from which he was laid off, then salary placement will be in the
range at the “I?” step as reflected in the current effective salary plan at the time of
reemployment.
39
0-d Payoff of Accruals Upon Layoff: Laid off employees are to be paid for all accrued
