Thank you. has joined tonight with his parents, Tony and Sarah are here, as well as his step-parents, Teresa and Spike. Shane originally was hired by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in February of 2025, and he graduated from the LA County Academy in July of 2025. He began working as a custody deputy in the North County Correctional Facility, where he worked for about seven months before realizing he needed to leave LA and come to Aurora Grande. So in April, he was hired with our agency. He is originally from the Antelope Valley and the Santa Clarita area, and he moved to the Central Coast when he was 15 and attended Paso Robles High School. So we'll consider you local as well. Attended Cuesta College. He eventually transferred to the California University at Northridge, where he obtained his Bachelor in Criminology and Justice Studies. In his free time, he loves going out, spending time with his family on the lake and fishing. He loves to support, I 'm not going to hold this against you, the Dodgers. Go Giants. Okay. Shane grew up with a family in law enforcement. Tony and Teresa both working in the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Tony, Shane's dad, will be penning his badge this evening. Shane chose to work for the Oregon Police Department for a few reasons. Ultimately, he wanted to continue his career in law enforcement and live on the Central Coast. And he chose AGPD because he loves the small town feeling of the officers as well as how closely everyon …

Thank you. Mayor, there is one closed session item, labor negotiation pursuant to government code section 54957.6 with city designated negotiators as in the agenda. Thank you very much. And at this time, we'll open up public comment on our closed session item. Would anyone like to speak? And hit that little button there. There you go. Good evening, Madam Mayor and council members. My name is Nicole Bryant. I'm the field representative for SEIU Local 620, who represents your hardworking general unit employees here at the city of Arroyo Grande. Thank you for the opportunity to speak this evening as you prepare for your closed session meeting. First, I want to acknowledge the progress that's been made at the bargaining table. We appreciate the city's efforts to address recruitment and retention through market equity adjustments and ensure that the city's workforce stays aligned with comparable labor market. So the city of Arroyo Grande doesn't lose talented, dedicated staff to neighboring jurisdictions. Those steps matter, and they have not gone unnoticed by our members. So thank you. While we are close to an agreement, there are a couple key issues that remain that are fundamental to whether this contract ultimately provides real stability for the workforce. Chief among them is the need for fiscal certainty over the term of the agreement. The city has proposed shifting from a longstanding shared percentage model for medical premium increases to a flat dollar contribution. We un …
