2210860.1 Page 1 of 2 SUBJECT: CONSIDER AND AUTHORIZE THE SIDE LETTER AGREEMENT WITH RIO VISTA PROFESSIONAL FIRE FIGHTERS ASSOCIATION (RVPFA) TO EXTEND MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU) TERM THROUGH AUGUST 31, 2024 DATE: August 6, 2024 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council of the City of Rio Vista consider and adopt Resolution No. 2024-065, authorizing the Side Letter Agreement between the City and Rio Vista Professional Fire Fighters Association (RVPFA) which would extend the successor Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) term through August 31, 2024. BACKGROUND During the October 19, 2021 regular meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2021-071 which approved a budget appropriation of $54,526.04 and a three-year (3- year) successor MOU between the City and RVPFA with a term which expired on June 30, 2024. Since February 2024, the City and RVPFA have been in negotiations towards a multi- year successor MOU. While the meetings have been productive, the City and RVPFA need more time to complete negotiations. The proposed Side Letter Agreement (see Attachment 2) have the following terms: 1. The term of the MOU shall now be effective from July 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024; and 2. Both parties agree that the first cost-of-living adjustment agreed to in a successor MOU shall be retroactive to July 1, 2024 should both parties agree to a successor MOU on or before August 31, 2024. Given the productive meetings with RVPFA since February 2024, staff anticipates that negotiations and a draft MOU for City Council consideration and approval would be completed before or by August 31, 2024. Special Meeting Agenda Item #2.1
