Subject: Consider Amending Chapter 18-18, Section 18- Date: March 9, 2021

Municipal Code (CMC) to allow “Self-Storage”
Facilities in the “RR” Rural Residential and “MUX” Reviewed & Approved:
Mixed Use Zoning Designations upon securing a
Conditional Use Permit
Prepared: Alan Flora, City Manager
Recommended Action: Hold First Reading of Ordinance No. 251-2021 Amending Section
18-18.040 of the Clearlake Municipal Code, read by title only,
waive further reading and schedule second reading and adoption
for April 1, 2021
BACKGROUND:
After a lengthy public review process, on December 3, 2020, the City Council adopted a revised
Zoning Ordinance which completely repealed and replacing Chapter 18 of the Clearlake
Municipal Code (“Zoning”).
DISCUSSION:
The Community Development Department has received multiple requests to develop self-
storage facilities in the City. The Clearlake Municipal Code (CMC), defines “Self-Storage” Facilities
as:
 Self-Storage Facilities is the establishment that offers space for rental, lease or ownership
of individual bays that are intended for the storage, warehousing or safe-keeping of goods
or possessions, regardless of the duration of such storage, warehousing or safe-keeping
(Chapter 18-45: Definitions)
Currently self-storage units are allowed, as a use by right, in the Industrial District and with an
Administrative Use Permit in the General Commercial District. All other zoning districts are
Page 1 of 4
32
Item 9.
restricted from development of self-storage units. In hearing from property owners, and
reviewing various development ideas, staff believe that in certain situations there are properties
in other districts which could accommodate self-storage units with the appropriate review and
conditions. Further we recommend that the zoning districts of “RR” Rural Residential and “MUX”
Mixed Use would be appropriate for development of self-storage units with review and approval
by the Planning Commission. If the Council is supportive of this change, the allowed use table in
the Zoning Ordinance would be modified to allow self-storage units to be developed in RR and
MUX with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
The other alternative would be to require interested property owners to request the Planning
Commission and City Council approve a rezone on property to General Commercial or Industrial
in order to develop a self-storage facility. This approach appears overly cumbersome in most
situations, and more flexibility could be created by adjusted the uses allowed table (Table 6) as
described above.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS:
Amendments to the Clearlake Municipal Code (CMC) is Categorical Exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061 (b) Review for Exemption.
 The activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects
which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can
be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a
significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff is recommending the City Council amend Chapter 18-18, Section 18-18.040 (Use
Regulations), Table 6 of the Clearlake Municipal Code (CMC) to allow “Self-Storage” Facilities in
the “RR” Rural Residential and “MUX” Mixed Use Zoning Designations upon securing a
Conditional Use Permit.
Staff is recommending the City Council find that the amendment to the Clearlake Municipal Code
(CMC) is Categorical Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant
to Section 15061 (b) - Review for Exemption.

CITY OF CLEARLAKE

Subject: Consideration of Second Extension of Emergency Date: March 10, 2021

Ordinance No. 241-2020 Establishing a
Moratorium on Industrial Hemp Cultivation in the
City Reviewed & Approved:
From: Ryan Jones, City Attorney

Alan Flora, City Manager
Recommended Action: Second Extension of Emergency Ordinance No. 241-2020: An

Urgency Ordinance Establishing a Moratorium on Industrial Hemp
Cultivation in the City (Four-Fifths Vote Required)

On December 12, 2018, the federal 2018 Farm Bill, which covers the cultivation of industrial
hemp, production of industrial hemp for agricultural research and transfer across state lines was
signed into law. The signing of the Farm Bill into law immediately removed hemp from the federal
government’s list of Schedule I controlled substances under the Controlled Substances Act of
1970.
The 2018 Farm Bill established a shared federal and state regulatory scheme over industrial hemp
cultivation. The bill requires states that permit the cultivation of industrial hemp to study the
growth, cultivation, or marketing of industrial hemp through agricultural pilot programs. The
results of the study must be submitted to Congress.
Since 2013, California has had an agricultural pilot program for industrial hemp. In 2017, that
program became effective. Under California law, cultivators of industrial hemp must register with
the appropriate county to cultivate. In response to the federal mandate, the California
Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) began its registration process for industrial hemp
cultivators.
1 36
Item 10.
Under both federal and state laws, industrial hemp can be grown both outdoors and indoors, but
land use and zoning restrictions are regulated by the local jurisdictions. In the County of Lake,
potential industrial hemp growers within the geographic boundaries of the county, which
includes the City of Clearlake, must register with the County of Lake Agricultural Commissioner
and must meet any applicable City land use regulations. The Lake County Agriculture
Commissioner has informed staff that they are not accepting any application for industrial hemp
cultivation until applicants have passed Federal Bureau of Investigation backgrounds checks, in
addition to other state requirements. Further, the Lake County Board of Supervisors has recently
enacted land use regulations on industrial hemp cultivation that take effect on April 24, 2020.
City staff would like the opportunity to review these regulations and develop City land use
regulations that are compatible and/or consistent with the County’s regulations.
Other than this current moratorium, the City of Clearlake does not have any land use regulations
for industrial hemp cultivation. Without specific local land use restrictions, the cultivation of
industrial hemp would not be clearly prohibited. And in the absence of any jurisdictional ban or
moratorium, the County would not be able to refuse to register an applicant.
To date, 31 of the 58 counties in California have either adopted a ban or a temporary moratorium
(although some moratoria or bans may have expired) on industrial hemp cultivation, mostly due
to the fact that the federal and state guidelines are unclear and from a practical enforcement
perspective there is speculation of whether industrial hemp can be immediately differentiated
from cannabis. In some jurisdictions that allow outdoor cannabis cultivation, the ban or
moratorium is also partly an effort to protect the cannabis industry which may potentially be
impacted by unintended cross pollination by hemp. Cannabis grown for commercial purposes are
feminized, or all-female plants, but such is not the case for hemp.
Furthermore, because cannabis and hemp plants have the same biological makeup, the plants at
first blush may appear physically identical and cause issues for law enforcement. Industrial hemp
and cannabis are from the same plant species that produces cannabidiol (CBD), an increasingly
popular ingredient used in alternative medicine. Currently, the main legal difference, under
federal law, between the definitions for industrial hemp and cannabis are the levels of
tetrahydrocannabidiol (THC), or the psychoactive component of the cannabis plant.
Hemp is defined under the 2018 Farm Bill as Cannabis plant Sativa L. that does not contain more
than .03 percent (THC). Both plants emit the same odor, particularly during certain periods of the
growth cycle. Hemp is not known to be used recreationally to get high and therefore does not
have the negative stigma often associated with cannabis. In addition, a field-testing process is
still being developed. At a minimum, significant training of city staff would be needed to make
the distinction. But without government oversight, it will be a challenge for cannabis regulators
2 37
Item 10.
and law enforcement to tell whether cultivators are growing hemp or cannabis. Further, without
any plant count restrictions, hemp can be grown in unlimited numbers both indoors and
outdoors, which can potentially create nuisance in neighborhoods and attract criminal activity.
Lastly, California’s industrial hemp laws are still evolving. California’s laws have been revised
several times since 2013, including modifying the definition of industrial hemp several times. In
addition to research purposes, California has approved the commercial sale of industrial hemp
with certain restrictions, including its registry. This process requires cultivators to register the
proposed site with the county it is located and the payment of a $900 registration fee.
On October 12, 2019, Governor Newsom signed SB 153, which updates California law to take full
advantage of the 2018 Farm Bill hemp provisions. However, SB 153 requires the California
Secretary of the Department of Food and Agriculture, in consultation with the Governor and the
Attorney General, to develop and submit a state plan to the United States Secretary of
Agriculture, on or before May 1, 2020. The USDA has 60 days to approve or deny that plan which
can be resubmitted if changes are required. Considering the volatility of hemp regulations,
adoption of local regulations should await the completion of the California legislative process.
On April 16, 2020, the City Council of the City of Clearlake voted 5-0 to adopt an Urgency
Ordinance No. 241-2020, placing a 45-day moratorium on the cultivation of industrial hemp to
allow for the City Council to consider suitable land use regulations, if any, can be completed.
On May 21, 2020, the City Council voted 5-0 to adopt Ordinance No. 243-2020, which was an
initial extension of the moratorium for the duration of 10 months and 15 days, as permitted by
state law. Therefore, the moratorium is set to expire on April 5, 2021, unless extended. California
law allows for one additional extension of one year, which would allow the moratorium to be
extended until April 4, 2022.
Environmental Considerations:
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because it is the
adoption of an ordinance, rule, or regulation that requires discretionary review, including
environmental review, and approval of permits, licenses, or other authorizations to engage in
commercial cannabis activity (CEQA Guidelines sections 15061(B)(1), California Business and
Professions Code section 26055(h)) and because it does not have the potential for causing a
significant effect on the environment (CEQA Guidelines section15061(b)(3)).

IMPOSING A MORATORIUM ON INDUSTRIAL HEMP CULTIVATION FOR A PERIOD OF 1
YEAR

Item 10.
ORDINANCE NO. 250-2021
SECOND EXTENSION OF AN INTERIM ORDINANCE

IMPOSING A MORATORIUM ON INDUSTRIAL HEMP
CULTIVATION IN THE CITY
WHEREAS, as of January 1, 2019, both California and federal law allow the cultivation
and sale of industrial hemp. Since 2013, California has regulated the cultivation and sale of
industrial hemp for both commercial and research purposes. (California Food and Agricultural
Code, sections 81000-81011.) On January 1, 2019, the federal government decriminalized hemp
by removing it from the list of Schedule 1 controlled substances under the Controlled Substances
Act of 1972 and authorized an agricultural research pilot program for the growth, cultivation, and
marketing of industrial hemp. (7 U.S.C.A., sections 1639o and 5940; and 21 U.S.C.A., section
802(16)(B).); and
WHEREAS, under California law, an individual or organization must register with the
county agricultural commissioner to cultivate hemp. Recently, the California Department of Food
and Agriculture and the County of Lake have made registration available. The County has not
registered any individual yet, but the County did enact land use regulations for industrial hemp
cultivation to be effective April 24, 2020; and
WHEREAS, the City of Clearlake has no regulations regarding the cultivation of industrial
hemp. Subject to certain exceptions, the City prohibits uses of land that are not specifically listed
in its zoning code. The Clearlake Municipal Code does not expressly allow the cultivation of
industrial hemp; and
WHEREAS, the regulatory scheme for industrial hemp is changing. For example, under
federal and California law, the definition for industrial hemp has already changed several times in
the past five years. (7 U.S.C.A., section 5940 (2014 and 2018 versions); California Food and
Agricultural, sections 81000(d) (2013, 2016, and 2018 versions)); and
WHEREAS, on October 12, 2019, Governor Newsom signed SB 153, which updates
California law to take full advantage of the 2018 Farm Bill hemp provisions. However, SB 153
requires the California Secretary of the Department of Food and Agriculture, in consultation with
the Governor and the Attorney General, to develop and submit a state plan to the United States
Secretary of Agriculture, on or before May 1, 2020. The USDA has 60 days to approve or deny
that plan which can be resubmitted if changes are required. Considering the volatility of hemp
regulations, adoption of local regulations should await the completion of the California legislative
process.
WHEREAS, further, the methods to distinguish and identify industrial hemp (the non-
intoxicating Cannabis sativa L. plant) from cannabis (the psychotropic version of the plant) are
also complex and evolving. Industrial hemp and cannabis are derivatives of the same plant,
Cannabis sativa L. Currently, under California law, industrial hemp is largely distinguished from
cannabis by the amount of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive chemical in the plant. If
1 40
Item 10.
the plant has less than 0.3% THC, it is categorized industrial hemp. As such, industrial hemp and
cannabis may be difficult to distinguish without a chemical analysis for the presence of THC
content. The federal Drug Enforcement Administration is in the process of seeking companies to
develop test kits that can verify THC content at a cultivation site. There may be other ways to
distinguish cannabis and from hemp through the physical characteristics of the plants. However,
such expertise requires training and the investigation could be time consuming and labor intensive.
This difficulty in distinguishing industrial hemp from cannabis plants may adversely affect the
public health, safety, or welfare of the residents or visitors of the City of Clearlake because
individuals may claim that cannabis plants are hemp plants thus thwarting enforcement efforts and
causing an increase in crime.
WHEREAS, on April 16, 2020, the City Council of the City of Clearlake voted 5-0 to
adopt an Urgency Ordinance No. 241-2020, placing a 45-day moratorium on the cultivation of
industrial hemp to allow for the City Council to consider suitable land use regulations, if any, can
be completed.
WHEREAS, on May 21, 2021, the City Council of the City of Clearlake voted 5-0 to adopt
an extension of the Urgency Ordinance No. 243-2020, extending the moratorium by 10 months
and 15 days until April 5th, 2021, on the cultivation of industrial hemp to allow for the City Council
to consider suitable land use regulations, if any, can be completed.
WHEREAS, the Council desires to further extend the moratorium. Pursuant to California
Government Code section 65858, subdivision (a) this interim ordinance prohibiting the cultivation
of industrial hemp may be extended one additional year from April 5, 2021, to April 4, 2022.
NOW THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLEARLAKE

DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Extension. The City Council of the City of Clearlake hereby extends Urgency
Ordinance 241-2020, in its entirety, which thereby places a moratorium on the cultivation of
industrial hemp for a period of one additional year from the end of the first extension, which
thereby extends the moratorium to April 4, 2022.
Section 2. Immediate Effect. Consistent with Government Code Section 65858, this
ordinance shall take effect immediately upon the expiration of Urgency Ordinance 243-2020
(April 5, 2021) and the existing provisions of the code previously affected by this Ordinance
will continue in force unaffected upon the expiration of this time period consistent with
Government Code Section 65858 or as amended during this time period by the Clearlake City
Council. The ordinance may be extended further by one year pursuant to action of the City
Council consistent with the requirements of California Government Code Section 65858.
SECTION 3. Severability. If any portion of this ordinance is found to be unenforceable, each

such provision shall be severed, and all remaining portions of this ordinance shall be enforced to
the maximum extent legally permissible.

and Adoption of Updated Salary Schedule;
Resolution No. 2021-16 Reviewed & Approved:
From: Melissa Swanson, Administrative Services

Director/City Clerk
Recommended Action: Approve updated salary ranges and salary schedule and adopt
resolution
As your Council is aware, the Police Department, like many other agencies, continues to struggle
with recruiting to fill police officer vacancies. In an effort to remain competitive in recruitment,
staff recommends the City Council authorize the Police Department to underfill vacant police
officer positions with recruits enrolled in the academy who have completed the City’s hiring
process for police officer. The City previously created a Police Officer Trainee classification in
2007, which would be appropriate for this situation. This Trainee position would be a non-sworn
classification at a temporary, part-time status. This position was originally adopted in 2007 at
Salary Range 5. This range is no longer valid therefore staff is recommending updating the Salary
Range to be equal to the CSO position at Range 30. The job description is attached.
Additionally, as your Council is also aware, staff has recruited several times for a Finance Director
and has been unsuccessful in hiring a successor to the prior incumbent. Currently, Chief White
has accepted the position on an interim, part-time basis in addition to his police chief duties.
While this has been an excellent choice to redirect and organize the department, this is not a
sustainable, long-term solution and it is in the best interest of the City and Chief White to
successfully recruit a permanent Finance Director.
Staff completed an informal survey of surrounding cities’ Finance Director salary and benefits
(see attached). The City’s salary range for Finance Director is $92,978 - $113,016. The average
pay for local, similar sized cities is $115,744, with similar benefits funding.
It is vital to fill the Finance Director position as soon as possible. Your Council also approved the
Recruitment Incentive Program and staff will be reviewing appropriate recruitment incentives. It
1 44
Item 11.
is staff’s recommendation to increase the Finance Director Salary Range from Range 67 to Range
69: $97,627.80 - $118,667.20 in order to offer a competitive wage for the position.
The Police Officer Trainee position will be funded for the remainder of the fiscal year with savings
from vacant police officer positions. The increase in the Finance Director position will be funded
through current salary savings from the vacant position.

Item 12.
CITY OF CLEARLAKE

Subject: Consideration of Employment Services

Agreement with Alan Flora as City Manager
From: Ryan R. Jones, City Attorney
Recommended Action: Motion to approve Employment Services Agreement for City

Manager with Alan Flora
Mr. Flora has served as the City Manager since March 14, 2019. Prior to that, Mr. Flora was the
City’s Assistant City Manager and Finance Director. Under Mr. Flora’s leadership and following
the policy direction of the City Council, the City has seen many improvements in the community
over the past two years.
Accordingly, the City Council is considering rescinding Mr. Flora’s current City Manager
contract, and approving the attached new Employment Services Agreement. The key
components of the new Agreement are the following:
The Agreement is for a term of 5 years. Commencing immediately upon approval, Mr. Flora
would receive a 7.5% salary increase, which brings his monthly salary to $13,785.63.
Contingent upon a favorable evaluation from the City Council and the Local Economic
Benchmark exceeding audited revenues from fiscal year 19-20, Mr. Flora would receive a 3%
raise on July 1 of each year thereafter.
Pursuant to subsection (3) to Government Code § 54953(c), prior to the City Council taking final
action, staff will provide an oral report summarizing the financial highlights of the proposed
Agreement.

51
Item 12.
In the first year of the contract, the net annual cost to the City is approximately $11,000. If Mr.
Flora receives the salary increases in years 2-5 of the contract, the net annual cost to the City
would be approximately $5,000.

is terminated without cause during such time as Employee is willing and
able to perform the duties of the position, Employee shall be entitled to
six months severance which is to include base salary plus accrued vacation
leave benefits and one month's health insurance. No other compensation
or benefits shall be paid except as set forth in Section 3.3.11 (C) above.
However, for each full year of service as City Manager of City, the amount
of severance pay and benefits shall be increased by one full month,
capped at a maximum of twelve (12) months. No other compensation or
benefits shall be paid. In the event that Employee finds other employment

shall cease. In no event shall Employee ever receive more severance pay
and benefits than the number of months then remaining on Employee's
Agreement term.

Employee shall not be terminated without cause for a period of 90 days
following the seating of newly elected or appointed Council members.
3.6.9 Given the at-will nature of the position of City Manager, an important
element of the employment agreement pertains to termination. It is in
both the City's interest and that of Employee that any separation of
the City Manager is done in a businesslike manner.

Employee with or without Cause, the City and Employee agree that no
member of the City Council, the city management staff, nor Employee
shall make any written, oral, or electronic statement to any member
of the public, the press, or any City employee concerning Employee's
termination except in the form of a joint press release or statement,
which is mutually agreeable to City and Employee. The joint press
release or statement shall not contain any text or information that is
disparaging to either Party. Either Party may verbally repeat the
substance of the joint press release or statement in response to any
inquiry.
3.7 Indemnification. City shall defend, save harmless and indemnify Employee
against any negligent tort, professional liability, claim or demand, or other
legal action, whether groundless or otherwise, arising out of an alleged
negligent act or omission occurring in the performance of Employee's services
as City Manager, except that this provision shall not apply with respect to any
intentional tort or crime committed by Employee, or any actions outside the
course and scope of employment.
3.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties. This Agreement may be amended if in writing and signed by both
Parties. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall
constitute a waiver of any other provision whether or not similar, nor shall
any such waiver constitute a continuing or subsequent waiver of the same
provision. No waiver shall be binding, unless executed in writing by the party
making the waiver. If any provision, or any portion thereof, contained in this
Agreement is held unconstitutional, invalid or unenforceable, the remainder
of this Agreement, or portion thereof, shall be deemed severable, shall not be
affected and shall remain in full force and effect.
3.9 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be construed under and governed
by the laws of the State of California, and venue shall be in Lake County,
California.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, City and Employee have signed and executed this Agreement as
of the Effective Date first above written.

CITY OF CLEARLAKE

Subject: Consideration of Employment Services

Agreement with Andrew White as Police Chief
From: Alan D. Flora, City Manager
Recommended Action: Motion to approve Employment Services Agreement for Police

Chief with Andrew White
Chief White has served as the Chief of Police since July of 2018. Under Chief White’s leadership
and following the policy direction of the City Council, the City has seen many improvements to
technology, professionalism, impacts to crime rates and overall community support of the
department.
The Chief’s current contract is set to expire in July and accordingly, the City Manager has
negotiated a new longer-term contract in order to retain Chief White. The key components of
the new Agreement are the following:
The proposed agreement is for a term of 5 years. Commencing immediately upon approval, Chief
White would receive a 7.5% salary increase, which brings his monthly salary to $12,647.37.
Contingent upon a favorable evaluation from the City Manager and the Local Economic
Benchmark exceeding audited revenues from fiscal year 19-20, Chief White would receive a 3%
raise on July 1 of each year thereafter.
Pursuant to subsection (3) to Government Code § 54953(c), prior to the City Council taking final
action, staff will provide an oral report summarizing the financial highlights of the proposed
Agreement.

63
Item 13.
In the first year of the contract, the net annual cost to the City is approximately $10,000. If Chief
White receives the salary increases in years 2-5 of the contract, the net annual cost to the City
would be approximately $4,000.

perform the functions and duties pertaining to the Police Chief position, and to perform other
legally permissible duties and such functions as the City Manager shall from time to time
assign. The City Manager shall have the authority to determine the specific duties and
functions that Employee shall perform under the Agreement and the means and manner by
which Employee shall perform those duties and functions. Employee agrees to devote all
business time, skill, attention and best efforts to the discharge of the duties and functions
assigned by the City Manager.
3.3.2 Control and Supervision. Employee shall serve at the will and pleasure of the City
Manager.
3.3.3 Meetings. Employee shall attend all meetings as directed by the City Manager that

under this agreement. The foregoing shall not preclude occasional teaching, writing, or
consulting performed during Employee's time off.
67
Item 13.
3.4.2 Hours. The Police Chief is an exempt employee but is expected to engage in those
hours of work that are necessary to fulfill the obligations of the position. Employee does
not have set hours of work as Employee is expected to be available at all times.
It is recognized that Employee must devote a great deal of time to the business of the city
outside of the city's customary office hours, and to that end Employee's schedule of work
each day and week shall vary in accordance with the work required to be performed.
Employee shall spend sufficient hours on site to perform Employee's duties; however,
Employee has discretion over Employee's work schedule and work location.
3.5 Salary, Benefits, and Other Considerations. For services rendered pursuant to this
Agreement, Employee shall receive the following compensation:
3.5.1 Salary. City shall compensate Employee at a rate $12,647.37 per month beginning
the first full pay period after execution of this agreement. Compensation shall be paid bi-
weekly at the same time as other employees of City are paid and shall be subject to all
applicable taxes, insurance and other required deductions. Any compensation changes
occurring as a result of this agreement shall take effect at the next regular payroll following
execution of this agreement.
A. Each year on or about the anniversary of this Agreement, the City

Manager shall perform an annual review of performance of Employee. Review of
base salary will be based upon performance as part of Agreement extension
discussion. Future range adjustments will be at the discretion of the City Council.
B. On July 1, 2022, and each year thereafter for the term of the agreement,
the Employee shall receive a 3% salary adjustment, contingent upon:
1. A positive evaluation from the City Manager
2. The Local Economic Benchmark, which is defined as secured

property tax revenue, Bradley-Burns sales tax, and transient
occupancy tax, exceeds audited revenues from fiscal year 19-20.
C. City agrees to adjust Employee's annual salary by a cost-of-living

adjustment on the same percentage amount and at the same time as cost- of-
living adjustments are made to City's management salary ranges.
D. City shall not at any time during the term of this agreement reduce the
base salary, compensation or other financial benefits of Employee, unless as part
of a general City management salary reduction, and then in no greater percentage
than the average reduction of all City department heads or unless otherwise
renegotiated.
E. Employee has the necessary skills and desire to serve an interim assignment
as Finance Director beginning on July 1, 2020 and continuing as needed. The interim
assignment is in addition to the Employee’s primary position as Police Chief, which
Employee will continue hold. In addition to the Employee’s regular compensation and
68
benefits currently received as Police Chief, Employee shall be paid a sum equivalent
Item 13.
to 10 hours per week at the base hourly rate of $42.29 ($1,832.61 per month).
Compensation shall be paid bi-weekly ($845.82) at the same time as other employees
of City are paid and which shall be subject to all applicable taxes, insurance and other
required deductions. The compensation for this assignment shall not be considered
“PERSable”. Such amount shall be Employee's sole compensation for his service
under this Section 3.5.1 E. The City Manager may eliminate the Employee’s interim
assignment at any time.
3.5.2 Benefits. Employee will be eligible for benefits as provided to management

employees as set forth in the Management Benefit Plan and any other documents that
designate management benefits, except as otherwise noted in this Agreement.
A. Employee will be entitled to a Uniform Allowance consistent with the

amount in the Clearlake Middle Management Association MOU for a Police
Sergeant.
B. Employee shall be entitled to vacation accrual in accordance with

Management Benefit Plan as if Employee had 14 years of service with City at
Employee’s original date of hire with City, increased annually in accordance
with the Plan.
C. Employee shall accrue sick leave at a rate of eight hours per calendar
month of service in accordance with the Management Benefit Plan.
D. The Police Chief position is classified as "exempt" under the Fair Labor
Standards Act and Employee shall not be entitled to the payment of overtime.
Employee shall be entitled to executive leave of 80 hours per employment year
with full pay. Hours shall be credited on January 1 of each year. Executive leave
does not accumulate and is not earned vacation time or benefit. Executive leave
days not used at the end of the calendar year are lost. Sell back of executive leave
is per the Management Benefit Plan.
3.5.3 Other Considerations.
A. Employee's duties require that the Police Chief have the exclusive use of a
City vehicle during the term of employment. City shall provide all attendant
operating and maintenance expenses and required insurance. At the City
Manager's discretion, if Employee will be out of the office for a period of time
exceeding two weeks, the vehicle shall be returned to the City until Employee
returns to duty.
B. The City will provide $75 per month to offset use of Employee's personal cell
phone for City business or City will provide a phone at Employee's option.
C. If Employee serves the full term of the agreement, March 18, 2021 through
March 18, 2026, City shall provide a lump sum payment to Employee equal to 3% of
each year’s base salary.
69
3.5.4 Dues, expenses, professional development.
Item 13.
A. The City Manager will budget sufficient funds to cover dues and
subscriptions of the Police Chief necessary for continued and full participation in
regional, state and local associations and organizations necessary and desirable
for the full representation of the City's interests. The City shall also pay the Police
Chief's dues for membership in the International Association of Chiefs of Police
(IACP) and the CA Police Chiefs Association. The Police Chief may request to join
other associations and organizations, and, if approved, the City shall pay such
other dues and appropriate expenses.
B. City recognizes that certain expenses of a non-personal and generally job-

related nature are incurred by the Employee in the performance of Employee's
duties and responsibilities. City agrees to reimburse or to pay said general
expenses on receipt of duly executed expense or petty cash vouchers, receipts or
statements, attached to a monthly request for reimbursement form.
C. City agrees to budget a sufficient amount of money to pay for the

registration, travel and subsistence of Employee to adequately pursue necessary
official functions for the City, short courses, institutions, seminars and other
functions that are necessary for Employee's professional development and for the
good of the city. These shall include, but not be limited to, the CA Police Chief's
Association annual conference and the IACP Annual Conference (on a bi-annual
basis pending City Manager approval and budget approval).
D. Any expenses of a purely personal nature while participating in any

organization shall be borne by Employee. Employee agrees to obtain prior
approval for expenses unless specifically provided in the annual budget.
3.6 Indemnification.
City shall defend, save harmless and indemnify Employee against any negligent tort,
professional liability, claim or demand, or other legal action, whether groundless or
otherwise, arising out of an alleged negligent act or omission occurring in the
performance of Employee's services as Police Chief, except that this provision shall not
apply with respect to any intentional tort or crime committed by Employee, or any actions
outside the course and scope of employment.
3.7 Entire Agreement.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. This Agreement
may be amended if in writing and signed by both Parties. No waiver of any provision of
this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision

Subject: Authorization of an Agreement with Lexipol, LLC Date: March 11, 2021
for Local Government Administration Policy
Manual and Daily Training Bulletins
From: Melissa Swanson, Administrative Services

Director/City Clerk
Recommended Action: Approve agreement and authorize City Manager to sign
The City of Clearlake’s Personnel Regulations were originally adopted in the mid-1990’s and
have periodically been updated on an irregular basis over the past thirty years. Employment law
changes frequently and often requires hours of staff time to review current policies for
overhaul and subsequently train managers, supervisors, and employees on those changes. The
issues surrounding administrative policies can create substantial risk, including inconsistent and
outdated policies, difficulty keeping up with new and changing legislation and practices, and
tracking policy acknowledgement and training documentation.
Lexipol, LLC was created in 2003 to provide up-to-date and relevant policies and trainings to law
enforcement agencies. The Clearlake Police Department has subscribed to Lexipol for many
years for this purpose. Recently, Lexipol has added a new division to their offered services:
Local Government Administration Policy and Training. Lexipol has developed personnel and
administrative policies that are state-specific for jurisdictions throughout the US. The manual
and training will be through an online module which allows for easier record-keeping and
preventing the need for in-person acknowledgement in keeping with COVID-19 regulations.
Ongoing legal updates will be managed by Lexipol and offered in real time to keep employees
and management up to date with the latest information. Policies include general personnel
regulations such as anti-retaliation, workplace violence, dress code, and others, as well as
organization and administrative policies such as social media, email, IT usage policies.
Approval of the agreement is the first step in bringing the City’s policy manual to standard. The
next step is to develop the policies internally at a management level then take the proposed
policies to the bargaining units for meet and confer for adoption.

5. Right to Use; Limitations on Use of Subscription Material and Derivative Works.

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, Lexipol hereby grants to Agency a
perpetual, personal, fully paid-up, right to use, except as limited by the terms of this agreement the
Subscription Material and any Derivative Works prepared by or for Agency, solely for the Agency’s
internal purposes. Agency will not use, copy, republish, lend, distribute, post on servers, transmit,
redistribute, display, in whole or in part, by any means or medium, electronic or mechanical, or by any
information storage and retrieval system, any Subscription Material or any Derivative Work prepared by or
for Agency other than as expressly authorized by the immediately preceding sentence. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, Agency will not import, upload, or otherwise make available any
78
Item 14.
Subscription Material or any Derivative Work prepared by or for Agency into or onto any third party
knowledge, document, or other content management system or service without Lexipol’s prior written
consent. The foregoing does not, however, prohibit or restrict Agency from providing Subscription
Material or Derivative Works prepared by or for Agency pursuant to an order from a court or other
governmental agency or other legal process, or Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, or Public
Records Act (PRA) request, nor does it prohibit or restrict Agency from displaying the adopted/approved
final policy document on a publicly accessible website for official Agency purposes, so long as Agency
includes the appropriate copyright and other proprietary notices on such final policy document as required
by Section 4 above.
6. Account Security. Agency is solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of Agency’s
user name(s) and password(s) and the security of Agency’s Account. Agency will not permit access to
Agency’s Account, or use of Agency’s user name(s) and/or password(s) by any person or entity other
than authorized Agency personnel. Agency will immediately notify Lexipol in writing if Agency becomes
aware that any person or entity other than authorized Agency personnel has used Agency’s Account or
Agency’s user name(s) and/or password(s).
7. Privacy Policy. Lexipol will hold all information Agency provides in confidence unless required to
provide information in accordance with an order from a court or other governmental agency or other legal
process such as a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, or Public Records Act (PRA) request.
Lexipol will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of information provided by Agency.
Lexipol’s system also uses Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Protocol for browsers supported by Lexipol
application(s). SSL encrypts information as it travels between the Agency and Lexipol. However, Agency
acknowledges and agrees that Internet data transmission is not always 100% secure and Lexipol does
not warrant or guaranty that information Agency transmits utilizing the Lexipol system or online platform is
100% secure.
Agency acknowledges that Lexipol may provide view-only access and summary information (including but
not limited to, status of number of policies developed or in development, percentage of staff reviews of
developed policies, and percentage of DTBs taken) to the Agency’s affiliated Risk Management Authority,
Insurance Pool or Group, or Sponsoring Association, if they are actively funding their member Agencies’
Subscription Fees.
8. Policy Adoption. Agency hereby acknowledges and agrees that any and all policies and Daily
Training Bulletins (DTBs) included in the Subscription Material provided by Lexipol have been individually
reviewed, customized and adopted by Agency for use by Agency. Agency further acknowledges and
agrees that neither Lexipol nor any of its agents, employees or representatives shall be considered
“policy makers” in any legal or other sense and that the chief executive of Agency will, for all purposes, be
considered the “policy maker” with regard to each and every such policy and DTB.
9. Disclaimer of Liability. Agency acknowledges and agrees that Lexipol its officers, agents,
managers, and employees will have no liability to Agency or any other person or entity arising from or
related to the Subscription Materials, or any act or omission by Agency or its personnel pursuant to, or in
reliance on, any of the Subscription Materials.
10. Limitation of Liability. Lexipol’s cumulative liability to Agency and any other person or entity for
any loss or damages resulting from any claims, demands, or actions arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the use of any Subscription Materials shall not exceed the subscription fees actually paid to
Lexipol for the use of the Subscription Materials under this Agreement during the twelve-month period
immediately prior to the assertion of such claim, demand or action. In no event shall Lexipol be liable for
any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or exemplary damages or lost profits, even if Lexipol has
been advised of the possibility of such damages. The limitations set forth in this Section shall apply
whether Agency’s claim is based on breach of contract, tort, strict liability, product liability or any other
theory or cause of action.
79
Item 14.
11. Non-Transferability. The subscriptions and rights to use the Subscription Material granted by
this Agreement are personal to Agency and Agency shall not assign or otherwise transfer the same to
any other person or entity.
12. Confidentiality. From time to time during the term of this Agreement, either party may be
required to disclose information to the other party that is marked “confidential” or the like, or that is of
such a type that the confidentiality thereof is reasonably apparent (“Confidential Information”). The
receiving party will: (a) limit disclosure of any Confidential Information of the other party to the receiving
party’s directors, officers, employees, agents and other representatives (collectively “Representatives”)
who have a need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the business relationship
between the parties to which this Agreement relates, and only for that purpose; (b) advise its
Representatives of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and of the obligations set forth
in this Agreement and require such Representatives to keep the Confidential Information confidential and
to use it only as permitted by this Agreement; (c) keep all Confidential Information confidential by using a
reasonable degree of care, but not less than the degree of care used by it in safeguarding its own
confidential information; and (d) not disclose any Confidential Information received by it to any third party
(except as otherwise provided for herein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a party may disclose
Confidential Information of the other party pursuant to any governmental, judicial, or administrative order,
subpoena, discovery request, regulatory request, or Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, or Public
Records Act (PRA) request, or similar method, provided that the party proposing to make any such
disclosure will promptly notify, to the extent practicable, the other party in writing of such demand for
disclosure so that the other party may, at its sole expense, seek to make such disclosure subject to a
protective order or other appropriate remedy to preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential
Information. Each party shall be responsible for any breach of this Section by any of such party’s
Representatives.

the State of California, without giving effect to any choice of law doctrine that would cause the law of any

of the parties hereto and hereby expressly supersedes any and all prior written and oral agreements and
understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof, including without limitation any and all
agreements and understandings pertaining to the use of the Subscription Materials by Agency. No
representation, promise, inducement, or statement of intention has been made by any party hereto that is

or document of Agency, which are inconsistent with, or in addition to, the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement, are hereby objected to and rejected in their entirety, regardless of when received, without
further action or notification by Lexipol, and shall not be considered binding on Lexipol unless specifically
agreed to in writing by it.

convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction and interpretation of any

binding unless it is in writing and signed by the party sought to be bound thereby.

other party regarding the subject matter hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, in addition
to any other relief granted, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of litigation.

13.7 General Interpretation. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed to be
the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent. This Agreement shall be

the Agreement. No rule of strict construction will be applied against any person or entity.

Alternatively, electronic mail or facsimile notice is acceptable when acknowledged by the receiving party.
13.9 Invalidity of Provisions. Each of the provisions contained in this Agreement is distinct
and severable and a declaration of invalidity or unenforceability of any such provision or part thereof by a
court of competent jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof.
Further, if a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or
unenforceable, then the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intention
as reflected in such provision to the maximum extent possible.
13.10 Waiver. Lexipol’s failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right or remedy under
any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or remedy.
