[7:52] other

[7:54] freedoms we enjoy and grateful for our

[8:00] We give thee thanks again for the

[8:02] opportunity we have to live in this city

[8:05] and to enjoy the comfort and the

[8:08] blessings afforded to us.

[8:11] We're mindful of many throughout this

[8:13] community and throughout our nation that

[8:16] are struggling and need of temporal and

[8:19] emotional and physical or spiritual

[8:22] blessings at this time. We pray for

[8:49] under God, indivisible with liberty and

[8:52] justice for all.

[9:00] Thank you all.

[9:03] Do we have any public announcements?

[9:04] Madam City Clerk, we'll open the uh

[9:08] meeting for public comment at this time.

[9:10] Those of you who are in the chambers,

[9:13] welcome to come forward and speak. Uh,

[9:18] and if there is anybody on the phone

[9:20] line, it's 7025899629.

[9:25] And while we're waiting for someone to

[9:27] call if they are going to, if anyone's

[9:29] here in the chambers like to say

[9:31] something, you're more than welcome to

[9:35] at this time.

[9:43] My name is Robin Baker. I'm a Boulder

[9:45] City resident and first I would just

[9:48] like to thank everyone who's up here and

[9:51] everyone who works so hard um to keep

[9:55] things moving forward in a positive way.

[9:57] I I'm very appreciative of that. I'd

[10:00] like to speak to I think it's item 21,

[10:03] the historic preservation choosing

[10:05] selecting a new commissioner. And I just

[10:08] have a few things to say. Um,

[10:11] number one, I'm hoping that you choose a

[10:14] commissioner who advocates for historic

[10:16] preservation,

[10:18] someone who actually, and I, it's

[10:20] nothing against anyone who's already

[10:22] been on the commission. I think it's a

[10:24] very difficult position to be in. Um,

[10:28] but I would like to have someone who

[10:30] advocates for the historic district and

[10:33] actually challenges the status quo. We

[10:37] don't know how many houses are

[10:38] contributing at this time because we

[10:40] don't collect data. So, how can we move

[10:44] forward and move toward where we have a

[10:48] sense of place that actually we know

[10:50] we're enhancing the historic district

[10:53] rather than diminishing it.

[10:55] I know that the individuals who are on

[11:00] the commission are dedicated and they

[11:03] give their time freely and that I

[11:06] appreciate it very much. On the other

[11:08] hand, um I have very high expectations

[11:12] not only for the historic district for

[11:14] but for the city because it's my home

[11:16] and I want it to thrive. I want it to be

[11:19] better. And so, um, I'm trying not to

[11:23] ask for too much, but for those people

[11:26] that I speak with regularly, they know

[11:28] that I have very high expectations.

[11:31] And so, I will continue to try to be a

[11:34] voice, but I do appreciate um the amount

[11:37] of time and energy you put into it and

[11:39] hope you have a good night tonight.

[11:40] Thank you.

[11:42] >> Thank you. Appreciate it. Anyone on the

[11:44] » Thank you. Appreciate it. Anyone on the

[11:44] phone?

[11:57] » My name is Gregory Kvasovich and I'm

[11:57] calling in regards to the parking

[11:59] situation going on in Boulder City. Uh I

[12:03] happen to live on a corner and I've been

[12:06] targeted by the same person that's going

[12:08] around and I know this because he's

[12:11] using old pictures of my trailer

[12:14] >> constantly twice week. I'm sorry to

[12:17] » constantly twice week. I'm sorry to

[12:17] interrupt you, but during the first

[12:19] public comment period, it is limited to

[12:21] matters that are on the agenda.

[12:23] >> Oh, well, the video didn't say that.

[12:26] » Oh, well, the video didn't say that.

[12:26] >> The the second public comment period,

[12:28] » The the second public comment period,

[12:28] you're welcome to call back and speak

[12:30] your comments.

[12:32] >> How long will that be?

[12:35] » How long will that be?

[12:35] >> You would just have to watch the meeting

[12:37] » You would just have to watch the meeting

[12:37] live because there's there's no

[12:40] time available for when we would get

[12:42] through the items.

[12:44] >> Okay, I will do that. Thank you.

[12:45] » Okay, I will do that. Thank you.

[13:06] Um, just wanted to throw my two cents in

[13:10] for agenda item number 21. um your

[13:14] selection of appointments for the HPC

[13:18] um committee tonight. Um I would just

[13:35] of um historic homeowners here in the

[13:43] people of the historic district that own

[13:45] the historic district and live in the

[13:47] historic district are fairly represented

[13:50] by that committee. Um so I would uh

[13:54] again politely beg you guys to consider

[13:57] that when you're making your selections

[13:58] for tonight. Um uh it's it only makes

[14:02] sense for uh that committee to be fairly

[14:06] represented by people actually in the

[14:08] historic district. Thank you so much for

[14:10] all you guys do and hope you had a good

[14:12] holiday. Thank you. Appreciate it.

[15:06] items for action

[15:10] on the consent agenda. Do I have a

[15:13] motion to approve the regular agenda

[15:16] first?

[15:17] Mayor staff is requesting that item

[15:19] number 13 be removed from the regular

[15:21] agenda. We didn't have an audit review

[15:24] committee meeting prior the council

[15:27] meeting. So there's no recommendation at

[15:30] >> Okay. We will remove 13 from the regular

[16:02] move to the regular agenda now. And

[16:05] we'll have a presentation under number

[16:08] 11.

[16:09] Um

[16:11] and our finance director.

[16:17] » You're welcome.

[16:22] » Good evening, mayor and council. I am

[16:24] Cynthia Snee, your finance director, and

[16:26] I'm very happy to be here tonight and

[16:28] give you an update on the finance

[16:30] department. It's our our annual update.

[16:37] Okay. Finance divisions include a

[16:39] significant number of years of public

[16:42] and governmental service and we're very

[16:43] proud of that. And our five divisions uh

[16:46] in in the department are accounting,

[16:49] budget, purchase, purchasing, grants,

[16:51] risk management uh and contracts, real

[16:54] estate and utility billing.

[16:57] That's the same as it has been for a

[16:58] long time. That hasn't really changed.

[17:01] Okay. So, a little bit more about

[17:02] accounting. Um that includes accounts

[17:05] receivable where we bill out

[17:06] particularly the uh for airport leases

[17:08] and the and the land leases out in the

[17:10] valley. We've got about 230 accounts

[17:13] that we maintain with that accounts

[17:15] payables when where we pay our bills

[17:17] from from vendors uh invoicing and

[17:20] employee uh reimbursement expense

[17:22] reimbursements. And that totals about

[17:25] almost 8,500 invoices every year that

[17:28] that we're processing. So it's a lot. In

[17:32] general accounting, we reconcile and

[17:34] maintain over 8,000 general ledger

[17:36] accounts. And in that includes financial

[17:39] reporting. We have 20 standard reports

[17:42] that we put out. And I know you're

[17:43] familiar with with many of those.

[17:49] All right. In specific in accounting,

[17:51] we've got payroll, and we we pay about

[17:54] 320 employees every bi-weekly. That

[17:56] varies a little bit because we have a

[17:58] lot of part-time, seasonal employees. So

[18:00] it it kind of goes up and down. We

[18:02] process all the W2s for all the

[18:04] employees. Um all of the related

[18:07] payments and reporting that goes along

[18:09] with with processing payroll.

[18:13] The budget division

[18:15] budget develops the the both the

[18:17] operating budget and the capital

[18:19] improvement plan. Um they monitor the

[18:22] budget both of those budgets throughout

[18:23] the year and and provide some research

[18:26] and analysis. Um, largely I say,

[18:29] "Angela, I need you to look at this."

[18:31] And and there it is. Um, they also do

[18:35] the five-year capital improvement plan,

[18:36] which you'll hear from Angela in a

[18:38] little bit for the upcoming five-year

[18:40] plan. And we are responsible for

[18:43] monitoring and and complying with the

[18:45] regulations um state and federal

[18:48] regulations.

[18:51] Okay. A little bit more about the

[18:52] budget. Uh we pro last year we prepared

[18:55] the award-winning annual city budget.

[18:58] That's the same one same award that

[19:00] we've been receiving for the last many

[19:02] years. We're very proud of that. That's

[19:04] we'll talk a little bit more about that

[19:05] in a second. They prepared last year's

[19:08] CIP and we improved our budget process

[19:12] last year. We're trying looking for

[19:14] continuous improvement. Last year we had

[19:17] a little bit different process where uh

[19:19] we presented the draft budget to the

[19:20] directors and said help us to reduce

[19:25] because we knew we needed to come with

[19:26] an operating budget. That's part of your

[19:28] your mandate and uh we needed help from

[19:31] all the department directors to get

[19:32] there and and we did that and so very

[19:35] proud of that.

[19:39] the purchasing division.

[19:42] Um, this is, let me go back for a

[19:45] second. Angela, you all know Angela, but

[19:47] Angela's our budget manager, okay? And

[19:49] Paul is our purchasing division head,

[19:52] and it's includes so much more than just

[19:54] purchasing. Um, he works on expense

[19:57] contracts and risk management and

[19:59] insurance claims and grants and grant

[20:02] coordination. So, he definitely gets the

[20:04] prize for the most hats to wear in the

[20:07] the department.

[20:09] So, a little more detail about his

[20:11] workload. Um, he completed 25 formal

[20:14] solicitations, RFPs, which saved the

[20:17] city $2.6 million. Um, the the purpose

[20:21] of that is to get the best um not only

[20:24] the lowest price, but the best product

[20:26] for the price um for the city, what's in

[20:29] the best interest of the city. uh 266

[20:32] contracts that he wrote and uh

[20:35] administered and negotiated along with

[20:37] the city attorney on most of those.

[20:40] Completed a lot uh 17 claims and and

[20:42] nine subregation actions where we were

[20:44] able to recover money from from

[20:46] different um claims against the city

[20:50] and managed 19 different grant programs

[20:52] valued at 17 million. Want to go into a

[20:55] little more detail about that. Most of

[20:57] that, well, about half of it, um, over 9

[21:00] million is specific to the airport and

[21:03] FAA grants for a lot of the capital

[21:05] projects that are going on out there.

[21:08] And it's historic preservation

[21:10] grants, CDBG, the um,

[21:15] for lend a hand and and emergency aid,

[21:18] uh, Clark County emergency operations,

[21:20] our dark dark skies retrofitting with

[21:23] the the street lights.

[21:26] We've got some police grants joining

[21:29] forces was about 50,000 and a water

[21:33] smart grant which is uh about water

[21:36] meters um replacing with a radio reads

[21:39] which makes it more more accurate and

[21:41] more efficient for our meter meters to

[21:43] be out there. Um and another

[21:45] infrastructure upgrade for the water

[21:47] wastewater treatment plant. So there we

[21:51] go. Lots of lots of grant activity on

[21:53] top of everything else that that comes

[21:54] out of the purchasing division

[21:57] contracts and real estate. That's Brock

[22:00] back. Um he works with land sales, land

[22:03] leases, research and analysis, and he's

[22:06] my special projects guy and and he does

[22:09] all those beautiful brochures that you

[22:11] see with all the financial data bringing

[22:13] it down to a a more attractive document.

[22:17] So some special things that he has done

[22:19] this year. uh prepared an enhanced and

[22:22] expanded online budget summary. So

[22:24] that's one of those beautiful

[22:25] publications that we see at the budget

[22:27] and summary. Um he really uh beefed that

[22:31] one up so it's a lot lot nicer. Um not

[22:34] that it wasn't nice before Brock

[22:37] and he assists me with the financial

[22:39] forecasts and the other transparency

[22:41] improvements. We the software that we

[22:43] used to produce the budget book went

[22:45] through a major upgrade and he was part

[22:47] of that. he was part of the beta testing

[22:49] to to get that, you know, up and going

[22:51] and and so we'll greatly benefit from

[22:53] that. It'll be a much more attractive

[22:55] document in the future.

[22:58] Okay. Utility billing. Is Brady here? I

[23:00] didn't see Brady. No. Oh, you know

[23:02] Brady? Um his group provides all the

[23:06] utility billing. So that's reading the

[23:08] meters, generating the bills, sending

[23:10] the bills out, collecting the payments.

[23:13] Um they also do the business licensing

[23:15] for the for the city.

[23:18] And this graph is really just to show

[23:21] that how stable our utility accounts

[23:23] have been year-over-year. Um, not much

[23:26] has changed, but that's not surprising

[23:27] given the the uh growth control

[23:31] situation that we're in. Things are

[23:32] pretty pretty constant there, pretty

[23:34] consistent.

[23:37] And then for our financial reports, um,

[23:39] I had hoped to be able to bring to you

[23:41] the fiscal year 25 report, but um, we're

[23:44] not quite there yet. So we prepare that

[23:46] annual document that goes through the

[23:48] audit and that was um independently

[23:51] audited and for fiscal year 24 which you

[23:55] see the cover here that did win the the

[23:57] GFOA award again and we will be

[24:00] submitting the fiscal year 25 for that

[24:02] same award. So speaking of the GFOA

[24:05] awards, um this is the certificate of

[24:08] achievement is the one for the financial

[24:11] statements for the AER and we've uh been

[24:13] awarded that um for 33 years consecutive

[24:17] years. So we're very proud of that.

[24:20] And is Amara here?

[24:21] >> How many people get that award?

[24:25] » How many people get that award?

[24:25] >> A lot of G a lot of people get that

[24:27] » A lot of G a lot of people get that

[24:27] individual award. I don't know the

[24:29] number, but it's it's many many where

[24:31] it's a very small population is when you

[24:33] get all three awards. But this one by

[24:35] itself is the one that's been um in

[24:38] existence the longest. And so there's a

[24:40] lot lot of governments that receive that

[24:42] one.

[24:42] >> So do we know anybody that gets all

[24:44] » So do we know anybody that gets all

[24:44] three?

[24:45] >> Well, we do.

[24:47] » Well, we do.

[24:47] >> I'm getting there. You beat me to it,

[24:49] » I'm getting there. You beat me to it,

[24:49] mayor.

[24:50] >> Um yes, and there's only a couple in the

[24:52] » Um yes, and there's only a couple in the

[24:52] state of Nevada that that do for our

[24:56] again more GFO awards. the budget award.

[24:58] We received that again for fiscal year

[25:00] 26. They had a real fast turnaround with

[25:02] this one, which was nice. Um, we've

[25:04] already been awarded for the most recent

[25:06] budget document we've done.

[25:10] And this is the newest award that they

[25:12] have, um, the popular annual financial

[25:14] report. We call that the paffer. um

[25:17] that's a basically a a regurgitation of

[25:19] what's in the big financial document but

[25:22] in a only a few pages and it's got some

[25:25] cute graphics and it's a lot easier um

[25:28] to digest that data. You don't have to

[25:30] be an accounting expert to to get to

[25:32] what what it's after. Um we've been

[25:35] producing that for a few years and we

[25:36] did in fact win that one award as well

[25:39] which does qualify us for the triple

[25:42] crown.

[25:43] Um we're very very very pleased to have

[25:46] to have won that again for all of our

[25:47] reports that we produced last year and

[25:50] we are submitting them as we prepare

[25:52] them this year and with the expectation

[25:54] that we'll meet all the criteria to to

[25:56] qualify for that again. And this one uh

[25:59] to your point mayor is only se several

[26:01] hundred governments in the entire nation

[26:04] that are awarded that one.

[26:08] Another award that we're happy to talk

[26:09] about is last year, this time last year,

[26:11] we submitted um a proposal application

[26:14] to the Cashman good governance award and

[26:17] we did uh win for we're in first place

[26:20] for the small city. They have different

[26:22] categories and for the small city we we

[26:25] did win that one which then qualified us

[26:27] to be a finalist for the the big overall

[26:29] award. We I guess we were runner up. We

[26:33] didn't did not get the overall award,

[26:34] but we did win the the small city one

[26:36] that and the the topic of that was the

[26:39] solar or the land leases and how that

[26:41] has been, you know, our our lifeline um

[26:45] since we don't have the other types of

[26:46] revenues that the other cities do.

[26:50] And we're very pleased that Paul um our

[26:53] mini hat man was elected chairman of the

[26:57] poolacted um organization. So he's he's

[27:02] a we have a a strong voice there. He

[27:05] does a great job

[27:08] and that's

[27:09] that's it. Happy to answer any

[27:11] questions.

[27:12] >> Any questions or comments?

[27:16] » Okay.

[27:17] >> I don't have any questions. Just a few

[27:19] » I don't have any questions. Just a few

[27:19] comments. Um it seemed like best

[27:21] practice when you said that you meet

[27:22] with the other offices. Did um directors

[27:26] of the departments to find out where

[27:29] best monies can be spent? That seems

[27:31] unusual that a government would do that

[27:34] um being that things tend to be

[27:36] earmarked, but you found a way to save

[27:38] money by working together to see where

[27:40] things could be moved. So that's a a big

[27:42] plus. Thank you for sharing that. Thank

[27:45] you also for breaking down the grants. I

[27:46] think it was Councilwoman Jurgensson who

[27:48] asked for that breakdown um at your last

[27:51] annual meeting and it's good to know

[27:53] that the public would know where a lot

[27:55] of our funds come from. So the grants

[27:57] somebody's doing some kind of grant

[27:59] writing. I imagine that's Paul and uh

[28:01] you know who does grants

[28:03] >> that typically comes from the individual

[28:05] » that typically comes from the individual

[28:05] departments. Okay.

[28:06] >> Um he may polish it up but the you know

[28:08] » Um he may polish it up but the you know

[28:08] the meat of it comes from the

[28:10] departments as they identify grant

[28:11] opportunity.

[28:12] >> It's a big deal either way. grants are

[28:14] » It's a big deal either way. grants are

[28:14] hard to get and uh we have so many of

[28:16] them which is good. I do actually have

[28:17] one question on the utility bills. Um

[28:20] online versus mailin

[28:23] um what's the equation on those a

[28:25] percentage and does it save any money if

[28:28] you go online? So currently it's about a

[28:32] 7525%

[28:33] split. 25 being where we send out an

[28:36] email to to the customers and then they

[28:39] have the opportunity to to pay online or

[28:42] do a like a direct um payment, you know,

[28:46] right direct debit out of their checking

[28:48] account. So that's 25%. The other 75% we

[28:52] actually mail a physical bill to. Um and

[28:55] so those either come back in the mail or

[28:57] you know might come back in person to to

[29:00] pay those.

[29:00] >> Okay.

[29:01] » Okay.

[29:01] >> Um and it definitely is more cost

[29:03] » Um and it definitely is more cost

[29:03] effective for the electronic that if

[29:06] people include the email and then just

[29:09] pay the fee um online. It is much more

[29:12] cost effective than the snail mail.

[29:14] >> I bet stamps are going up.

[29:16] » I bet stamps are going up.

[29:16] >> St. Yes, they are. It's about 80 cents I

[29:19] » St. Yes, they are. It's about 80 cents I

[29:19] think.

[29:19] >> And congratulations on the triple crown

[29:21] » And congratulations on the triple crown

[29:21] award.

[29:25] that is all these guys that is under

[29:30] » Thank you all you guys.

[29:30] >> Thank you. Go ahead.

[29:33] » Thank you. Go ahead.

[29:33] >> Maybe for a point of clarification if

[29:35] » Maybe for a point of clarification if

[29:35] there's anyone listening who would like

[29:37] to receive an electronic bill now, what

[29:40] would the process be for them to be able

[29:42] to do that?

[29:43] >> They can contact the utility billing

[29:46] » They can contact the utility billing

[29:46] department um or division.

[29:49] I I don't have their phone number off

[29:50] top of my head, but yeah. So contact

[29:53] them and then set that up and they could

[29:55] also be part of that and maybe by this

[29:57] time next year we could have 35%.

[29:59] >> Right. Right.

[29:59] » Right. Right.

[29:59] >> And there may I don't want to speak out

[30:01] » And there may I don't want to speak out

[30:01] of line but there may be an opportunity

[30:03] to make that election through our um

[30:06] website if you navigate to where the

[30:09] utility billing area is. I think you can

[30:11] opt in that way.

[30:12] >> Okay. So you can talk to a real person.

[30:14] » Okay. So you can talk to a real person.

[30:14] >> You can

[30:15] » You can

[30:15] >> if you need to or want to or you could

[30:17] » if you need to or want to or you could

[30:17] go online and navigate and try to do it

[30:19] possibly,

[30:20] >> I believe. We'll check on that so that

[30:23] » I believe. We'll check on that so that

[30:23] we know um 221 years experience and I

[30:27] think that that says a lot and I think

[30:30] it also says a lot about why we are

[30:33] Triple Crown winners and um the things

[30:36] that aren't said a lot of times are the

[30:39] ways that you listen to us when we ask

[30:42] for things and respond um as a staff as

[30:46] a whole staff and as a budgeting and um

[30:49] finance uh committee. or group. Uh we

[30:53] have asked the hard ask of a nearly as

[30:57] close as you can balanced budget for

[31:00] each year and I know that that is

[31:02] stressful at a government level and I

[31:04] appreciated the respect that you had for

[31:07] us up here that you could understand how

[31:10] hard it would be for us to vote on

[31:11] something that had a $10 million

[31:14] um discrepancy, right? It didn't seem

[31:17] like being wise stewards over the monies

[31:19] that were there. So, I want to say and I

[31:22] I'm sure all of the council thank you

[31:24] for that um for helping us and uh the

[31:28] numbers indicate that you did very well

[31:30] with that budgeting and I know that that

[31:32] took staff members in other areas too to

[31:36] come to the conclusions like council

[31:38] member Asher said of how that budget

[31:40] would come together and and how they

[31:42] could get their numbers closer and and

[31:46] reflect what was going to happen. So,

[31:48] thank you um to all of you that um do

[31:52] what you do for our city to make sure

[31:54] that we stay uh fiscally responsible and

[31:58] shine even. So, thank you very much.

[32:12] quickly. So yes, it's on our website as

[32:14] uh uh director Sneed has said, there is

[32:17] a separate page that's paying your bill

[32:19] online. It describes the new online bill

[32:22] uh payment system is now available and

[32:24] if you scroll down there's a a click to

[32:26] begin here. Oh yeah, they've got it

[32:28] shown right up there on the screen. So

[34:06] » and that brings us to number 14.

[34:06] Thank you, mayor. I'm uh city manager

[34:08] Ned Thomas. Item number 14 is a um

[34:13] public hearing on there two parts.

[34:15] There's a public hearing on the

[34:16] collective bargaining agreement for the

[34:18] Teamsters Local 14 clerical bargaining

[34:20] unit and also a resolution approving uh

[34:23] that uh bargaining agreement between the

[34:25] city and Teamsters Local 14 clerical. Uh

[34:28] just by way quickly by way of background

[34:31] uh over the past uh since July, well

[34:34] yeah over the past year really the city

[34:37] staff and outside council have engaged

[34:39] in good faith negotiations with

[34:41] representatives of the clerical

[34:43] bargaining unit to negotiate a new

[34:45] collective bargaining agreement. Their

[34:47] previous agreement expired on June 30th,

[34:51] 2025.

[34:52] Um the city and the unit and the union

[34:54] have tenatively agreed on a proposal to

[34:56] extend their uh agreement for three

[34:59] years with increases in the city's

[35:01] contribution toward healthcare insurance

[35:03] and wages. Um under NRS288.153,

[35:08] any new extended or modified uh

[35:10] bargaining agreement between the local

[35:12] government as employer and the union

[35:14] must be approved uh by this public in a

[35:17] public hearing. That's why we're here

[35:18] tonight and um provide you with a quick

[35:20] report. The total fiscal impact of this

[35:22] agreement would be an increase over the

[35:24] three years of 1.145

[35:30] 584.21.

[35:31] So a little a little over 1.145

[35:34] million. Uh there would be wage

[35:37] increases of approximately $229,000

[35:40] in the first year including the medical

[35:43] insurance contributions. In um fiscal

[35:47] year 23, they would total up to 38 an

[35:50] additional an increase um of 384 just

[35:54] over 384,000

[35:56] uh with benefits and then in fiscal year

[35:59] 28 a little over $532,000.

[36:03] When we come back uh next week with the

[36:05] five or ne in two weeks with the

[36:08] five-year financial forecast, we will

[36:10] provide some more additional information

[36:12] so that you can see how all of that fits

[36:14] in with the other um unions that we're

[36:16] negotiating with with an overall picture

[36:18] of that. But for tonight, we're just

[36:20] here for the clerical bargaining unit

[36:22] and um happy to answer any additional

[36:25] questions you might have.

[36:29] I just have one. Um

[36:33] is I know there's been a lot of uh

[36:35] movement and various topics. Is this um

[36:42] effective with all the changes July 1 or

[36:46] when ratified?

[36:48] >> Yes, it will be retroactive to the start

[36:49] » Yes, it will be retroactive to the start

[36:49] of the new fiscal year.

[36:50] >> Thank you.

[36:51] » Thank you.

[36:51] >> And the start of the new of this

[36:53] » And the start of the new of this

[36:53] agreement.

[36:57] And that uh if there's no other

[36:59] questions, we'll open this up for public

[37:01] hearing.

[37:03] Anyone like to come forward or on the

[37:05] line uh for a public hearing on this

[37:08] item if you were on the line?

[37:10] 7025899629.

[37:14] That's 7025899629.

[37:17] This is a public hearing. If there's

[37:19] anyone like to come forward at this

[37:21] time, use the microphone here in

[37:23] chambers, you're welcome to do so.

[37:27] If not, we'll wait a little bit.

[37:31] 7025899629.

[37:34] This is a public hearing on the

[37:36] collective bargaining agreement with the

[37:38] Teamsters Local 14 Clerical Bargaining

[37:41] Unit.

[37:45] No one on the phone line. Uh that leads

[37:48] us to uh the resolution number 8085

[37:53] for approval. Do I have a motion? I move

[37:56] to approve resolution 8085.

[37:59] >> Is there a second?

[38:01] » Is there a second?

[38:01] >> Second.

[38:02] » Second.

[38:02] >> Any discussion?

[38:05] » Any discussion?

[38:05] >> All those in favor say I. I. Any of

[38:08] » All those in favor say I. I. Any of

[38:08] those say nay. It was unanimous. Thank

[38:09] you.

[38:12] We'll move to item 15. Mr. City Manager.

[38:20] Thank you. U. This item is a collective

[38:24] uh bargaining agreement.

[38:27] Excuse me. This item is a resolution u

[38:31] approving an amended and restated

[38:33] collective bargaining agreement between

[38:34] the city and team's local 14 fire

[38:37] captain's bargaining unit. uh the

[38:39] collective bargaining agreement for this

[38:41] uh union uh again team's 14 fire

[38:44] captains uh expired in June 30th and the

[38:47] city and the fire captains entered into

[38:49] a new agreement effective August 25. Uh

[38:52] this they were the first group in this

[38:54] round of negotiations to conclude their

[38:56] uh agreement which we um we were very

[38:58] pleased to do that. However, during the

[39:01] negotiations uh or after the agreement

[39:04] was approved, it was discovered that we

[39:06] had uh differing interpretations of the

[39:08] reserve program that's part of article

[39:10] one of the the new agreement. And it's

[39:12] regarding how and when reserves are

[39:15] used. And so to clarify that language,

[39:18] the city and the union held uh

[39:20] additional discussions to settle the

[39:21] agree disagreement. and we uh happily we

[39:25] agreed to modify the language as set

[39:26] forth in the amended and restated

[39:28] collective bargain agreement that's

[39:30] before you tonight. So there's no fiscal

[39:32] impact with this change. It's just a

[39:34] clarification of the language that was

[39:36] there. And uh so NRS requires that this

[39:40] type of a modified agreement come back

[39:42] to you for approval in a public hearing.

[39:45] Happy to answer any questions.

[39:46] >> Thank you. Any questions?

[39:48] » Thank you. Any questions?

[39:48] >> I have a disclosure.

[39:50] » I have a disclosure.

[39:50] >> Okay.

[39:51] » Okay.

[39:51] I would like to disclose pursuant to

[39:53] NRS281A that my son Nigel Walton is a

[39:56] fire captain for Boulder City Fire and

[39:59] this matter concerns the collective

[40:01] bargaining agreement for the captain's

[40:03] bargaining unit of which he is a member.

[40:05] Because this is a relationship under

[40:07] Nevada ethics law that would likely

[40:09] impact the judgment of a reasonable

[40:11] person in my situation. I will be

[40:13] abstaining on this item. Thank you.

[40:16] >> Thank you.

[40:17] » Thank you.

[40:18] Any other questions or

[40:21] So, we uh will open the public hearing

[40:25] on this particular item. If you're

[40:27] calling in 7025899629,

[40:32] if you're here in chambers, welcome to

[40:34] come forward and say whatever you would

[40:36] like to say on this item. We'll wait a

[40:40] little bit and see if we have anyone on

[40:42] the phone line. 702589

[40:45] 9629.

[40:48] Anyone in chambers likewise

[40:52] can come forward.

[40:58] That's 7025899629

[41:02] for

[41:05] any public hearing public comment. At

[41:08] this time,

[41:10] anyone on the phone line? We will close

[41:13] the uh public hearing and move to the

[41:16] resolution number 8086. Do I have a

[41:20] motion?

[41:21] >> I move to pass resolution number 8086.

[41:25] » I move to pass resolution number 8086.

[41:25] >> Is there a second?

[41:26] » Is there a second?

[41:26] >> A second.

[41:28] » A second.

[41:28] >> Is there discussion?

[41:31] » Is there discussion?

[41:31] All those in favor say I.

[41:33] >> I.

[41:34] » I.

[41:34] >> Any opposed? One abstension. Thank you.

[41:38] » Any opposed? One abstension. Thank you.

[41:38] And that brings us to item 16, approval

[41:42] of the tenative capital improvement plan

[41:44] for fiscal years 27 through 31.

[41:52] Hello, Angela Manin, budget manager. So

[41:56] today we're looking for tenative

[41:57] approval on the 5-year CIP plan. And the

[42:00] reason we look for tenative approval for

[42:02] the CIP is we're about to go into the

[42:05] operating budget. And so having

[42:08] a starting point, knowing what we're

[42:10] going to do with CIB really helps that

[42:12] process. And also occasionally um some

[42:15] capital projects have operating costs.

[42:17] So to know about those costs before we

[42:18] go into the operating budget.

[42:23] So

[42:24] our 5-year plan has 54 projects with a

[42:27] combined cost of $134.5 million. Fiscal

[42:31] year 27 has 35 projects with a combined

[42:35] cost of $35.1 million.

[42:39] This chart is showing the funding

[42:41] sources for our 5-year plan. It's a

[42:44] total of $134.5 million.

[42:47] Um 40% of this is coming from the

[42:49] enterprise funds which is $53.7 million.

[42:53] That's $3 million coming from our

[42:54] airport. 26.6 million coming from our

[42:57] electric fund. 14 million coming from

[43:00] wastewater and 10 million coming from

[43:02] our water fund. Outside funding is 24%

[43:05] or $32.8 million. And that's 27.2

[43:09] million coming from the FAA to support

[43:11] our airport and also 5.6 million coming

[43:13] from RTC to support our streets. The

[43:16] government fund is 19% or 25 million and

[43:20] this includes 8.6 million coming from

[43:22] our acquisitions and improvements fund,

[43:24] 12.5 million coming from our pool fund,

[43:27] and 3.8 8 million coming from our

[43:29] redevelopment fund. The voter approved

[43:33] is 17% or $22.5 million and that's $3.5

[43:38] million of the annual approved um

[43:39] spending from that fund and also $18.9

[43:43] million from the sale of Track 350, also

[43:45] known as Liberty Rich. And then our golf

[43:48] course search charge funds is less than

[43:49] 1% at $415,000 for equipment at our golf

[43:54] courses.

[43:57] This ne next chart is just uh funding

[43:59] sources for fiscal year 27. It's a total

[44:02] of $35.1 million.

[44:05] So the largest portion is governmental

[44:08] at 44% or $15.5 million. This includes

[44:12] $1.8 million coming from acquisitions

[44:14] and improvements, 11.8 from our pool

[44:17] fund, and $1.9 million from our

[44:19] redevelopment fund. This is unusual for

[44:22] our CIP graph where our funding sources

[44:24] are for government to be so high and

[44:26] it's because we have that really large

[44:28] pool project coming up in 27. And so if

[44:31] we were to take out the pool project, it

[44:32] would be 25% for the government funds.

[44:36] The next one is voter approved is 27% or

[44:39] 9.5 million and that's the $1 million

[44:42] that is approved annually to spend and

[44:44] also 8.5 million from the sale of track

[44:46] 350.

[44:48] And then the enterprise funds is 20% or

[44:51] $6.9 million which is $140,000 coming

[44:55] from our airport. 5 million coming from

[44:57] our electric fund, $400,000 coming from

[45:00] our wastewater fund and 1.4 million

[45:03] coming from our water fund. Outside

[45:05] funding is $2.6 million or 8% and that

[45:10] is 1.2 million coming from FA to support

[45:12] our airport and 1.4 coming from RTC to

[45:15] support our streets. And again, this is

[45:18] very unique because of our very large

[45:19] pool project. And so our breakdown is

[45:21] not typical. If we were to take out the

[45:23] pool project, uh maybe 25% governmental,

[45:27] 7% voter approved, 47% enterprise fund,

[45:31] and 18% outside funding. And that'd be

[45:33] more in the norm on spending.

[45:39] So, our fun our governmental funding

[45:41] sources for fiscal year 27 include um a

[45:44] transfer from the general fund to

[45:45] acquisitions to improvements of up to $

[45:47] 1.5 million. Also, the swimming pool

[45:50] fund resources of $20.3 million include

[45:53] 11.8 million in fund balance from

[45:56] donations, voter approved funding, and

[45:57] investment revenue. It also has that

[45:59] additional 8.5 in voter approved um

[46:03] spending from the sale of track 350. The

[46:06] redevelopment fund is will use the

[46:08] resources of $ 1.9 million to promote

[46:11] businesses in the RDA district.

[46:15] So again, so voter approved um spending

[46:17] in fiscal year 27 will be $9.5 million.

[46:21] And so with the sale of track 350, also

[46:25] known as Liberty Ridge, it was approved

[46:27] by the voters voters. That 90% will go

[46:29] to the pool and 10% will go to public

[46:31] safety. So in fiscal year 27, $8.5

[46:34] million will go to the pool from that

[46:36] sale. And then also for fiscal year 27,

[46:39] we have that annual spending of $1

[46:41] million. So that spending of voter

[46:44] approved funding of $1 million is for

[46:46] governmental projects, so it's not to be

[46:48] used for utilities or airport. Um it was

[46:51] approved back in 2015.

[46:53] This year, fiscal year 26, our lease

[46:55] revenue going into voter approved

[46:56] funding or voter approved fund is 4.6

[46:59] million. So we're only allowed to spend

[47:01] 1 million. So that fund grows at about

[47:03] $3.6 million annually. So at the end of

[47:06] fiscal year 26, it'll have a fund

[47:08] balance of about $11 million.

[47:13] So another funding source for CIP for

[47:16] fiscal year 27 is our golf course search

[47:18] charges. So these funds come from a

[47:21] percentage of the green piece. Both

[47:23] Boulder Creek and New Golf Course both

[47:25] have a search charge fund and they grow

[47:27] at about $150,000 annually. So, Boulder

[47:30] Creek will use this money for about

[47:32] $126,000 to purchase equipment and MUN

[47:35] golf course will use $290,000 to

[47:38] purchase equipment.

[47:42] So, our proposed enterprise fund

[47:44] spending for fiscal year 27 hasn't

[47:46] changed since we met back in December.

[47:48] The airport fund will be $140,000.

[47:51] The electric fund will be $5 million.

[47:53] The wastewater fund will be $400,000.

[47:56] And the water fund will be 1.4 million.

[48:01] So, our outside funding for fiscal year

[48:03] 27 um includes the regional

[48:06] transportation commission of $1.4

[48:08] million and again this supports our

[48:09] roads and also the federal aviation

[48:11] administration of 1.2 which supports our

[48:15] airport.

[48:18] So, there's only been one change since

[48:19] we met in December with the CIP, and

[48:23] that includes adding the project of the

[48:25] pavilion at the Boulder Creek Golf

[48:26] Course of converting the 7,400 ft²

[48:30] canvas pavilion into a 10,000 ft²

[48:33] permanent building that would include

[48:35] restrooms, a warming kitchen, and bars.

[48:39] So, this cost this project would cost

[48:41] $8.5 million. It would be 100% funded

[48:44] with the redevelopment district funding.

[48:47] So, we would use the current funding of

[48:49] $5 million that's in the RDA and then um

[48:52] 2027 it'd be an additional $1.7 million

[48:55] and then in 287 $750,000 and then in

[48:58] fiscal year 29 when the RDA sunsets

[49:00] there'd be an additional million

[49:01] dollars. So for a total project cost of

[49:04] 8.5 million

[49:07] and the 10,000 footprint

[49:10] um we used

[49:13] the Clark County not oh my gosh Boulder

[49:16] the Boulder Dam Credit Union Gala which

[49:18] is about 400 people and so that's how we

[49:20] um determined that 10,000 square

[49:21] footprint to make sure it could host

[49:23] something like that.

[49:26] » Can I interrupt here mayor and ask a

[49:28] question? Have we talked with our public

[49:31] works department to see if that amount

[49:33] is going to be about the right amount

[49:35] come 2028?

[49:37] >> We have we have a little bit of

[49:41] » We have we have a little bit of

[49:41] inflation put into this for with our

[49:42] current calculations that they have

[49:44] made. But

[49:46] >> if the public works director would like

[49:47] » if the public works director would like

[49:47] to come up, they have definitely been

[49:49] working on this.

[49:50] >> Yeah, I mean that's what we do. We set

[49:51] » Yeah, I mean that's what we do. We set

[49:51] aside money today and realize it's not

[49:53] sufficient in two years, right? So we

[49:54] want to make sure we don't get caught

[49:56] with that. So thank you.

[49:59] >> Thank you.

[50:01] » Thank you.

[50:01] >> Okay. So this is the timeline for our

[50:03] » Okay. So this is the timeline for our

[50:03] capital improvement plan. Today's the

[50:05] 13th and we are looking for tenative

[50:07] approval so we can move forward with our

[50:09] operating budget. Um the CIP plan could

[50:12] come forth any time before final

[50:14] approval of the budget in May. Um but if

[50:17] there's no changes, you won't see it

[50:19] again until final budget approval on May

[50:22] 26th.

[50:24] And I know um

[50:28] in the packet there is a PDF of our

[50:30] digital budget book. If you go to our

[50:32] website bcnv.org/cip2027,

[50:37] there is the digital um CIP book. It's

[50:40] much more user friendly and easier to

[50:41] navigate. And if you want to u look in

[50:43] deeper into any of the projects or

[50:45] funding sources, it's a great resource.

[50:48] And also if there's ever any questions

[50:49] on CIP, uh, anyone can email cipbcnv.org

[50:55] and I'm happy to answer any questions.

[50:57] >> Questions?

[51:00] » Questions?

[51:00] >> Thank you for all that. I think I was

[51:02] » Thank you for all that. I think I was

[51:02] keeping up with you, but I do have um

[51:04] just a clarification if you could

[51:06] between the CIP and the voter approval

[51:09] fund and you mentioned $11 million. Can

[51:13] you put those three into context?

[51:16] So,

[51:18] the charter states we have to put 20% of

[51:20] all lease revenue into a CIP fund. That

[51:24] CIP fund, we've named it the voter

[51:26] approved capital improvement fund. So,

[51:27] it grows at the $3.6 million annually.

[51:30] And so, at the end of this year, it'll

[51:31] be $11 million. We also have an

[51:33] acquisitions and improvement fund, which

[51:35] is our working um capital improvement

[51:38] fund really where all the CIP

[51:39] governmental CIP projects happen. And

[51:42] then of course with the utilities and

[51:43] airport those would all occur in their

[51:46] own individual funds.

[51:47] >> So the 11 million that would have any of

[51:49] » So the 11 million that would have any of

[51:49] that money that would be spent from that

[51:51] is that something that has to go to the

[51:52] voters?

[51:53] >> Yes.

[51:54] » Yes.

[51:54] >> Okay.

[51:54] » Okay.

[51:54] >> So none of that money can be spent

[51:55] » So none of that money can be spent

[51:55] without voter approval.

[51:57] >> Okay. Can you give me um an idea of what

[52:01] » Okay. Can you give me um an idea of what

[52:01] that a project that could be used?

[52:04] >> So a recent one was the pool. We had two

[52:07] » So a recent one was the pool. We had two

[52:07] questions go out um to the voters. one

[52:08] was for $7 million to assist with

[52:11] building the pool and then there was

[52:12] additional um question of up to $9

[52:14] million. So that's um a great project

[52:17] for we let can let those fun um funds

[52:20] build until we have a large project like

[52:21] that.

[52:22] >> Okay. Thank you.

[52:23] » Okay. Thank you.

[52:23] >> Mhm.

[52:28] » I want to clarify if I could my I'm

[52:30] sorry. Were you going to ask a question?

[52:31] Right.

[52:32] >> I was No, I will defer. I'm blurted out.

[52:34] » I was No, I will defer. I'm blurted out.

[52:34] Sorry.

[52:34] >> I just was going to say thank you. Thank

[52:36] » I just was going to say thank you. Thank

[52:36] you for all the hard work. Great job.

[52:38] Thank you. Thanks.

[52:39] >> That's it. I'm done.

[52:41] » That's it. I'm done.

[52:41] >> If I may. Sorry, there was a long pause.

[52:44] » If I may. Sorry, there was a long pause.

[52:44] I thought there was no more. Um, did I

[52:46] hear you say then that this that the CIP

[52:51] U plan uh will not be brought in a

[52:54] public meeting again until the approval

[52:57] date in May

[52:58] >> unless there's any request for changes.

[53:01] » unless there's any request for changes.

[53:01] as we go through the operating budget,

[53:03] there's always that opportunity,

[53:04] especially if there's a change on any of

[53:06] our projects or a request to change

[53:07] anything because also during that our

[53:09] operating budget will request to make

[53:11] the transfers to pay for the CIP

[53:13] projects. So, it won't maybe not its own

[53:17] individual meeting, but the topic will

[53:20] there'll be opportunity to make changes.

[53:21] >> Okay. Thanks.

[53:22] » Okay. Thanks.

[53:32] several months between now and then. So

[53:34] what I I could offer is in our monthly

[53:36] one-on-one my monthly monthly one-on-one

[53:39] meetings with you, I can put this as an

[53:41] item and we can talk through those

[53:43] projects again and then if you have

[53:44] additional things then uh we we we would

[53:47] like to give the I guess what I'm saying

[53:48] is I'd like to give the council an

[53:50] opportunity for a more in-depth

[53:51] discussion on those CIP projects. If you

[53:53] would like to do that, we can do that in

[53:55] the our meetings.

[53:57] What he's trying to say is that can

[53:59] happen individually, not as a group,

[54:01] because otherwise we would have to

[54:03] agendaize it.

[54:05] And go ahead,

[54:08] >> though. I can ask this in the meeting. I

[54:10] » though. I can ask this in the meeting. I

[54:10] I will ask it here. With the pavilion

[54:12] being um the new thing that's funded

[54:15] through the RDA monies um up to 2029,

[54:18] are we seeing that as the projected

[54:20] completion is 2029 or are we planning on

[54:23] starting that prior to that? How does

[54:25] that look?

[54:26] >> It would depend with RFPs like the Well,

[54:30] » It would depend with RFPs like the Well,

[54:30] the $5 million that would be in fiscal

[54:32] year 26

[54:33] >> has not been approved by the RDA board.

[54:35] » has not been approved by the RDA board.

[54:35] Like we're giving asking for tenative

[54:38] approval here, but we that would have to

[54:40] be a first step before any of those um

[54:43] funding could be spent. And I mean

[54:45] there's a long process like we'd like to

[54:47] have it done by 2029, but there's

[54:51] many things that would have to happen

[54:53] before.

[54:54] >> Okay. Thank you.

[54:55] » Okay. Thank you.

[54:55] >> What he's trying to say, what she's

[54:57] » What he's trying to say, what she's

[55:09] » Anyone else?

[55:09] >> No, sir.

[55:10] » No, sir.

[55:10] >> Mr. City,

[55:11] » Mr. City,

[55:12] >> just really quickly just to clarify so

[55:13] » just really quickly just to clarify so

[55:14] that there's no misunderstanding on the

[55:16] the the conversation that I just had

[55:18] with you. Uh yes, I will I I will be

[55:21] happy to speak with you on the CIP

[55:22] projects one-on-one. However, no

[55:25] decisions will be made. So um if there

[55:27] are any that um uh sound good, then I

[55:30] can always bring those back to a meeting

[55:32] uh for a full full disclosure to the

[55:35] other council members. But I just wanted

[55:37] to be I I wanted to be careful that we

[55:40] were not suggesting that I was going to

[55:41] talk to you about other projects and not

[55:43] have them in a public meeting.

[55:44] >> All right. Appreciate it. Thank you. Any

[55:46] » All right. Appreciate it. Thank you. Any

[55:46] other questions?

[55:48] All right. Um,

[55:51] so on that one, do we need anything

[55:53] other than to have a motion to approve

[55:56] the tenative capital improvement plan?

[56:00] >> That's it.

[56:01] » That's it.

[56:01] >> I would accept that motion.

[56:03] » I would accept that motion.

[56:03] >> Move to approve.

[56:15] » That's unanimous. Thank you.

[56:15] >> Thank you. Thank you.

[56:18] » Thank you. Thank you.

[56:18] That brings us to item 17.

[56:32] » Good evening, mayor and council. Uh

[56:34] Britney Walker, your city attorney here.

[56:36] before you this evening. Item 17 is a

[56:39] resolution approving an agreement

[56:41] between the city of Boulder City and the

[56:43] law firm of Cox and Wilson for

[56:46] prosecutor services. Since 2005, the

[56:49] city has contracted with private law

[56:51] firms to provide the prosecution

[56:52] services.

[56:54] Mr. Gary Booker was our uh prosecutor

[56:57] for 18 years and retired in 2023. Our

[57:01] current prosecutor is Thomas Moscll who

[57:03] has served in this role since June of 23

[57:06] and he was a chief deputy district

[57:08] attorney for Clark County from August 23

[57:11] 2014 through 2021.

[57:15] In August of 2025, Mr. Moscow began

[57:18] working with Justin Wilson of Cox and

[57:20] Wilson Law. And as an aside, Mr. Wilson

[57:22] and his partner Shane Cox are here today

[57:24] if there's any questions for them. Um,

[57:27] and they subcontracted with Mr. Moscow

[57:30] to provide prosecution services. Um, Mr.

[57:33] Moscow does wish to terminate his

[57:34] contract to pursue other endeavors. Um,

[57:37] since the city has been working with Mr.

[57:38] Wilson, who is also an experienced

[57:40] criminal attorney with, um, over 5 years

[57:43] of criminal experience. Uh, he also

[57:45] worked for the Clark County DA's office

[57:46] early in his career, and his resume is

[57:49] provided as a handout tonight. Um he

[57:52] over the past few months has worked uh

[57:54] providing our prosecution services and

[57:56] in that time has processed uh 88 cases

[57:59] resulting in 70 convictions for the

[58:01] city. Uh Mr. Wilson is comfortable in a

[58:04] courtroom and wellversed in criminal

[58:05] procedure investigation, substantive

[58:08] criminal law and roles of evidence. Mr.

[58:10] Wilson's partner Shane Cox is also

[58:12] available to serve in Mr. Wilson'sstead

[58:14] should he be unavailable. Uh Mr. Cox is

[58:17] also an experienced criminal attorney

[58:18] and it will benefit the city to have the

[58:20] additional support of a law firm uh to

[58:23] provide these services. The term of the

[58:25] agreement is two years and additional

[58:27] two additional one-year renewal periods.

[58:29] Um and so before you this agreement and

[58:32] I'm available for any questions and

[58:34] again Mr. Wilson and Mr. Cox are also

[58:36] here if the council has questions for

[58:38] them.

[59:04] » Yes, they they provide uh malpractice

[59:04] insurance for the services.

[1:13:06] collective bargaining negotiations and

[1:13:09] then impass between the city and the

[1:13:11] international association of

[1:13:12] firefighters local 5073. Uh this report

[1:13:16] to you is required under NRS 20 uh

[1:13:19] 288.2000

[1:13:22] subsection 8. Um as noted in the staff

[1:13:25] report uh just a little bit of

[1:13:26] background the collective bargaining

[1:13:28] agreement between the city and IAFF

[1:13:31] local 5073 expired on June 30th 2025.

[1:13:35] The parties unfortunately were unable to

[1:13:37] negotiate a successor agreement and uh

[1:13:40] we mutually agreed to go to non-binding

[1:13:42] factf finding to seek third an

[1:13:44] independent review and third party input

[1:13:47] on resolving the areas of disagreement

[1:13:50] and we received this factfinders report

[1:13:52] on December 23rd 2025 under NRSU uh 288.

[1:13:58] uh the city council must hold a um there

[1:14:30] But in in talking about those uh the

[1:14:33] fiscal impact the council uh the statute

[1:14:36] does not allow the council to dis

[1:14:38] discuss additional details about the

[1:14:40] report in relation to fiscal. It's a

[1:14:42] little bit confusing but essentially I'm

[1:14:45] here to provide you with this is these

[1:14:46] were the issues that we talked about.

[1:14:49] This these are the recommendations and

[1:14:50] findings of the factfinder and these are

[1:14:52] the fiscal impacts. So I'll go through

[1:14:54] each one of those in just a little bit

[1:14:56] of detail. So first the first first item

[1:14:58] the the issues submitted to the

[1:15:00] arbitrator. Uh first one is regarding

[1:15:03] wage increases. The second one was

[1:15:05] related to pay for what is called a

[1:15:07] preceptor or mentor pay. This is when

[1:15:09] one of our full-time firefighters steps

[1:15:11] in or is given an additional assignment

[1:15:13] to mentor one of the the junior or cadet

[1:15:16] uh firefighters. I don't know if that's

[1:15:18] the exactly the correct term. And then

[1:15:21] third uh what type of revolved around

[1:15:24] incentive pay for both hazmat additional

[1:15:26] certifications that the firefighters

[1:15:28] receive for uh hazardous materials

[1:15:30] training as well as what is called a

[1:15:32] technical rescue training certification

[1:15:35] and I'll I'll talk about each of those

[1:15:37] in just a moment. So those were the

[1:15:39] three issues. uh and now I'll the next

[1:15:42] part I'll tell you about the findings

[1:15:44] and the recommendation of the factfinder

[1:15:46] um

[1:15:49] under wage increases uh in addition to

[1:15:52] the wage itself there were some issues

[1:15:55] around the term of the agreement how

[1:15:57] many years would the agreement be and

[1:15:59] also retroactivity so we're past the

[1:16:02] time when the the old uh collective

[1:16:04] bargaining agreement expired we're into

[1:16:06] the new one but we haven't reached an

[1:16:08] agreement so um what uh when do the new

[1:16:11] when will the new terms start? So um on

[1:16:14] that regard uh the factfinder found that

[1:16:17] there a term of 3 years as proposed by

[1:16:20] the city would be appropriate. So uh

[1:16:23] factfinder's recommendation that we um

[1:16:25] consider a non-binding uh factf finding

[1:16:28] but we would consider 3 years the uh the

[1:16:32] new agreement then would be effective

[1:16:34] from July 31st 2025 through June 30th

[1:16:37] 2028.

[1:16:38] On the next item related to wages

[1:16:40] themselves, uh in year 1 there would be

[1:16:43] a wage increase of 4.375%.

[1:16:47] In year two and in year three, the w any

[1:16:50] wage increase would be based upon the

[1:16:52] consumer price index or CPI. And uh but

[1:16:56] we would uh the proposal included both a

[1:16:59] floor and a ceiling or a minimum uh cola

[1:17:03] and a maximum cola and uh minimum would

[1:17:07] be 2.25. 25%. So if it happen if it

[1:17:10] happened that we had a very low CPI that

[1:17:13] year it was only 1.6 they would be

[1:17:15] guaranteed at least 2.25%.

[1:17:17] Likewise like in the in the past year if

[1:17:20] there was a very large increase in the

[1:17:22] CPI uh it would be capped at 3.25%.

[1:17:27] And that would be for year two and

[1:17:28] three. So there would be a wage increase

[1:17:30] in both of those but this gives us the

[1:17:33] uh boundaries of in which that increase

[1:17:36] would fall.

[1:17:38] Uh with regard to retroactivity, the

[1:17:40] factfinder recommended as proposed by

[1:17:44] the IAFF that it be retroactive to July

[1:17:47] 30, July 1st, 2025. So the beginning of

[1:17:50] the contract, the the new contract

[1:17:52] retroactivity. And then with regard to

[1:17:55] preceptor and mentor compensation, uh it

[1:17:59] the factfinder recommended it to be $50

[1:18:02] per shift for the duration of the

[1:18:04] assignment. And again, that would be

[1:18:06] effective during the term of this

[1:18:08] agreement. So, $50 per shift if you're

[1:18:11] serving as a mentor. And then, uh,

[1:18:13] finally, with regard to the incentive

[1:18:16] pay that I mentioned related to

[1:18:17] hazardous

[1:18:20] additional certifications, uh, for

[1:18:22] handling or addressing, uh, emergencies

[1:18:24] related to hazardous materials and

[1:18:26] technical rescue training. Um it uh

[1:18:30] FactFinder recommended that the

[1:18:32] employees who have obtained and

[1:18:34] maintained certification in hazardous

[1:18:36] material technician and so there uh you

[1:18:39] had to do these together uh a technical

[1:18:42] rescue certification uh related to

[1:18:45] vehicle and machinery um technician that

[1:18:48] would be paid an additional 2% above

[1:18:51] their um hourly rate. And then in

[1:18:55] addition to that there are other type

[1:18:57] there three other types of technical

[1:18:59] rescue uh certification. Those are

[1:19:03] swiftwater rescue, high low angle rope

[1:19:06] rescue and wilderness rescue. All of

[1:19:08] those uh which are appropriate to our

[1:19:11] geography here and the special needs of

[1:19:14] Boulder City. And so if uh the the

[1:19:17] factfinder recommended that if the

[1:19:19] employees receive those any of those

[1:19:21] additional certifications that in

[1:19:24] addition to the 2% for hazmat and

[1:19:26] vehicle machinery rescue they would

[1:19:28] receive one an additional 1% for up to

[1:19:31] three other uh three other TRT or

[1:19:35] technical rescue certifications for a

[1:19:37] total of 5%.

[1:19:41] A potential uh total of 5%. And then

[1:19:43] finally, the third item in the fiscal

[1:19:45] impact of this um for the overall

[1:19:48] three-year contract would be 1 point uh

[1:19:51] well, excuse me, 1,483,84349.

[1:19:56] That would be total in both wages and

[1:19:59] benefits based on the conditions that I

[1:20:02] just described to you with regard to

[1:20:04] wage increases and hazmat and and the

[1:20:08] other special compensations for

[1:20:09] mentoring or or preceptor pay.

[1:20:13] So uh again un uh my report and the

[1:20:17] structure of that information I've

[1:20:18] shared with you is outlined or given in

[1:20:21] the NRS. Um I'm happy and so this is

[1:20:24] more of an information for the council

[1:20:26] of um how the factfinder uh factf

[1:20:29] finding process worked what the results

[1:20:32] were and I'm happy to answer any

[1:20:33] questions. However, no action is needed

[1:20:35] on this item.

[1:20:37] >> So the factf finder we know what it is.

[1:20:41] » So the factf finder we know what it is.

[1:20:41] We know what it is. Now it's up to you

[1:20:45] or the team to figure out if they want

[1:20:49] to just accept this or go forward with

[1:20:52] looking at some other option.

[1:20:55] >> That's correct. It it came back uh

[1:20:57] » That's correct. It it came back uh

[1:20:57] non-binding factf finding and it came

[1:20:59] back to us and that gives us now a

[1:21:01] framework to continue to the

[1:21:02] negotiations which we will do.

[1:21:05] >> And you're not looking for us to say

[1:21:08] » And you're not looking for us to say

[1:21:08] anything?

[1:21:09] >> No. just answer any questions you might

[1:21:11] » No. just answer any questions you might

[1:21:11] have or it's it's for a discussion among

[1:21:13] the council if you have discussion among

[1:21:15] yourselves as well.

[1:21:17] >> So do we have discussion?

[1:21:19] » So do we have discussion?

[1:21:19] >> No.

[1:21:23] » Okay.

[1:21:24] >> I don't hear anybody saying he wants to

[1:21:26] » I don't hear anybody saying he wants to

[1:21:26] or she wants to say anything.

[1:21:30] >> I will add I think it's approp because I

[1:21:32] » I will add I think it's approp because I

[1:21:32] always like to share positive

[1:21:33] information without going into a lot of

[1:21:35] detail. This has been very helpful to us

[1:21:37] and we appreciate the work of both the

[1:21:39] factfinder and um the response from the

[1:21:42] IFFF members and we look forward to

[1:21:44] hopefully concluding a uh fair and uh

[1:21:48] reasonable solution with a bargaining

[1:21:51] agreement with them very soon.

[1:21:53] >> So unless we say otherwise this is the

[1:21:56] » So unless we say otherwise this is the

[1:21:56] kind of thing that you will present to

[1:21:58] the other party.

[1:22:00] >> Correct.

[1:22:02] » Correct.

[1:22:02] >> Yeah.

[1:22:02] » Yeah.

[1:22:02] >> Any other things that I need to say or

[1:22:04] » Any other things that I need to say or

[1:22:04] do?

[1:22:06] Thank you.

[1:22:06] >> Thank you.

[1:22:10] » That brings us to the city manager

[1:22:12] report.

[1:22:15] » Should have just stayed up there, I

[1:22:16] guess. Yeah,

[1:22:18] >> I can do three words again.

[1:22:20] » I can do three words again.

[1:22:20] >> Yeah, the first one is the report uh

[1:22:21] » Yeah, the first one is the report uh

[1:22:22] claims paid report. Uh this is available

[1:22:24] online and there is no nothing unusual

[1:22:25] in the report.

[1:22:27] >> And any questions?

[1:22:37] report. You will notice on the agenda,

[1:22:39] it's unodudited. Tonight you receive the

[1:22:41] full audited report. Once we close the

[1:22:42] books, next year will audit. But on a

[1:22:44] monthly basis, we provide that report to

[1:22:46] the council and to the public in an

[1:22:49] unodudited form.

[1:22:57] Anyone here in chambers welcome to come

[1:23:00] forward. And is there anyone on the

[1:23:03] line? If there are, come at 7025899629.

[1:23:11] Go ahead.

[1:23:13] Good evening again, council, mayor,

[1:23:15] staff, ladies and gentlemen. Um,

[1:23:20] just kind of furthering my comment from

[1:23:22] earlier in regards to the HPC committee.

[1:23:25] Um, I just kind of want to hit it over

[1:23:29] the head with a hammer again that

[1:23:31] unfortunately um the committee members

[1:23:34] that now make up the the new committee

[1:23:38] still don't represent even 50% um

[1:23:43] being seated at the historic table from

[1:23:47] um either a resident or ownership

[1:23:49] standard. Um and I I really kind of feel

[1:23:53] like

[1:23:55] I've been up here over the last couple

[1:23:58] years advocating that that committee be

[1:24:01] made up of at least 50% uh voting

[1:24:03] members that actually represent the

[1:24:06] historic district. And I think it's um

[1:24:09] uh while I can, you know, Dave is is an

[1:24:12] incredible um asset to the historic

[1:24:16] district um living at the fringe and in

[1:24:18] a very historic home. Um I I I still

[1:24:22] feel like we're really falling short on

[1:24:24] representing your constituents that

[1:24:25] actually make up the historic district

[1:24:29] um in in such a capacity and that their

[1:24:32] voices are heard. I mean, the the

[1:24:34] committee and and this council um

[1:24:37] continue to um

[1:24:39] form obviously opinions and um

[1:24:43] designations and and and plans for what

[1:24:47] the historic district is and should be

[1:24:49] and how to preserve it. Um and yet there

[1:24:52] still isn't uh uh two voting members on

[1:24:55] the committee that um

[1:24:58] that are part of that decision making.

[1:25:01] So, I just want to remind you guys and

[1:25:03] and the rest of everybody who's watching

[1:25:06] um that that should really be something

[1:25:08] that you guys should try be trying to

[1:25:10] achieve and um bring a little more of

[1:25:13] the voice of the actual historic

[1:25:15] district to the historic committee.

[1:25:18] Thank you so much.

[1:25:20] >> Thank you.

[1:25:22] » Thank you.

[1:25:22] If anyone's going to call in 7025899629

[1:25:27] and if no one's calling in, we'll still

[1:25:30] invite other people to come up if they'd

[1:25:32] like to say something in the public

[1:25:34] comment which is open to anything. Um,

[1:25:39] we had somebody earlier who was here but

[1:25:43] didn't get the chance. So, we're going

[1:25:45] to wait a little longer. uh see if he

[1:25:50] can call in at 7025899629.

[1:25:56] There is a little bit of a delay. So

[1:25:59] there um we'll continue to wait.

[1:26:03] 7025899629.

[1:26:21] And this public comment can be about

[1:26:23] anything.

[1:26:25] Doesn't have to be related to the uh

[1:26:28] things that are on the agenda.

[1:26:30] 7025899629

[1:26:37] and that phone number is picked up by

[1:26:39] our city clerk and then is broadcast to

[1:26:42] the chambers

[1:26:45] so we all would hear it. 7025899629.

[1:26:52] No one on the phone.

[1:26:59] See, no one on the phone and no one here

[1:27:02] in chambers. We will close public

[1:27:04] comment and go to city council's report

[1:27:08] and we'll start at my far right.

[1:27:11] Councilman Walton.

[1:27:15] Thank you. Um

[1:27:18] on the uh convention and visitors

[1:27:21] authority front, there's been a massive

[1:27:24] renovation

[1:27:26] u at the uh convention and visitors

[1:27:28] authority over the last few years and it

[1:27:31] was completed and ribbons cut uh just in

[1:27:35] time for uh the largest or one of

[1:27:39] certainly the largest uh conventions we

[1:27:41] have here, CES, Consumer Electronic

[1:27:43] Show. And so the uh the product the the

[1:27:48] um the renovations turned out fantastic

[1:27:51] and high marks from attendees

[1:27:54] and it really uh continues to place Las

[1:27:58] Vegas as a premier destination for

[1:28:01] leisure sports and conventions. And of

[1:28:06] course CES uh was here recently and very

[1:28:09] successful. Uh that's all I have there.

[1:28:12] And then as far as the uh water

[1:28:14] authority report um by mid

[1:28:19] February the states

[1:28:22] are supposed to get together and come up

[1:28:24] with a new plan the basin states and

[1:28:26] that there's really not been any

[1:28:29] reported progress in that. So, uh the uh

[1:28:33] federal government has said if if you

[1:28:35] don't come to an agreement, now they

[1:28:37] have pushed off the time frame for that

[1:28:40] a couple of times already. We don't know

[1:28:42] if they'll hold to this middle of

[1:28:44] February firmly or loosely, but um in

[1:28:48] any case, we expect there will likely be

[1:28:51] uh requests for additional cuts amongst

[1:28:55] all of the basin states.

[1:28:58] Uh Nevada receives roughly 2% of the

[1:29:03] entire allocation of the Colorado River

[1:29:06] flow.

[1:29:07] Um and of our 2%

[1:29:11] I'm going to switch to a fraction now.

[1:29:13] We consumed or are expecting to consume

[1:29:17] 2/3 of our allocation. So we have a

[1:29:20] cushion. It's not a large cushion, but

[1:29:23] um we expect to be able to um continue

[1:29:28] to uh survive and thrive if uh if and

[1:29:31] when additional cuts might be made to

[1:29:33] the larger picture. Um, we are part of

[1:29:38] the lower basin states. Um, and Arizona

[1:29:42] and Mexico, not a basin state, but a

[1:29:46] certainly a part a participant and a

[1:29:48] partner in the Colorado River decisions.

[1:29:51] Um, between their cuts and our cuts,

[1:29:55] there's going to be 600 roughly 630,000

[1:29:59] acre feet. Now, that's double of what

[1:30:02] our entire allocation is. So that

[1:30:05] indicates Arizona and Mexico are going

[1:30:08] to cut a whole lot more than we already

[1:30:10] are, which is 21,000 acre feet off of

[1:30:13] our 300,000. So anyway, um the bottom

[1:30:16] line is we're um we're still um

[1:30:20] operating with high return flow credits,

[1:30:23] which allows us to draw out more than

[1:30:26] our actual allocation. But since we're

[1:30:28] returning it, we can continue to keep

[1:30:30] that closed loop cycle and our actual

[1:30:33] consumption is still only about

[1:30:35] twothirds of our allocation. So that's

[1:30:37] my report. Thanks

[1:30:39] >> you. Appreciate it.

[1:30:42] » you. Appreciate it.

[1:30:42] >> Um I really have nothing to report my

[1:30:45] » Um I really have nothing to report my

[1:30:45] Clark County debt management

[1:30:47] uh council because they trying to get

[1:30:50] into the new year. So hopefully next

[1:30:53] month.

[1:30:59] » I I just wanted to thank Boulder City. I

[1:31:01] basically every year you make a New

[1:31:04] Year's resolution and I've never kept

[1:31:06] one yet, but I feel so blessed living

[1:31:08] here in Boulder City and that's I just

[1:31:11] want to reach out and say how thankful I

[1:31:14] am that I have a small business that's

[1:31:16] all family and I have wonderful friends

[1:31:19] in Boulder City and everybody on the

[1:31:21] city council. It's been great and the

[1:31:24] staff down here I feel like I've they're

[1:31:26] family to me. So, I am so blessed to be

[1:31:30] in Boulder City and I'm just looking

[1:31:32] forward to working with everybody and

[1:31:35] especially everybody in Boulder City and

[1:31:37] how I appreciate them and appreciate all

[1:31:40] you guys. Thank you. That's what I had

[1:31:41] to report.

[1:31:45] » So, uh most of Americans were tuned in

[1:31:47] today to the Supreme Court hearing um

[1:31:50] which is the highest court in the land.

[1:31:52] And I'd like to point out that the same

[1:31:54] integrity and desire for right to be

[1:31:56] done, I believe, is is on its dis. Uh we

[1:32:00] can't compare obviously to the Supreme

[1:32:02] Court, but we try to strive for the

[1:32:04] truth in what we do and to get a a fair

[1:32:08] um and equitable decision and everything

[1:32:10] that we do. And I I know I speak for

[1:32:12] myself and the other four members. Um

[1:32:14] it's always my honor to serve in any

[1:32:16] capacity that I find myself in,

[1:32:18] especially here in Boulder City. Um, but

[1:32:21] specifically, I I want to thank uh

[1:32:23] everyone for selecting me as the um

[1:32:26] Southern Nevada uh Council of Government

[1:32:28] Representative for Boulder City. I I I

[1:32:32] think that's really important. I'm also

[1:32:34] on the uh civilian military council

[1:32:36] executive committee and this year

[1:32:38] Boulder City, we are the elected chairs

[1:32:42] for that committee. We meet quarterly

[1:32:44] and uh we talk about different issues

[1:32:46] with the military and military families.

[1:32:49] Um I'm also on the Nevada Legal Cities

[1:32:52] and so these are three um boards that

[1:32:56] have a lot of input and a lot of say. So

[1:32:58] even though we're small, we give our

[1:33:00] input from Boulder City and we have a

[1:33:02] seat at the table to make a difference

[1:33:04] in Southern Nevada, all of Nevada, I

[1:33:06] would say. So I just want to thank you

[1:33:08] again for electing me uh for the uh COG

[1:33:12] and I look forward always uh with the

[1:33:14] military council. Um it's it's it's my

[1:33:17] goal to lean into current and future

[1:33:21] pressing issues, issues that will be

[1:33:22] addressed with the military civil and

[1:33:24] civilian communities. Um like attaining

[1:33:28] housing uh attainable housing, drone

[1:33:31] incursions. The military uh has a

[1:33:34] somewhat of a cclick fix like we have
