SIDE LETTER OF AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA AND THE EXECUTIVE
MANAGEMENT GROUP
The City of Rancho Cucamonga ("City") and the Executive Management Group have a
Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") that commenced on July 1, 2012 and is set to end on
June 30, 2015. The Parties now wish to enter into this new Side Letter of Agreement to
memorialize the following changes agreed to by both sides.
The following sections shall amend and replace the corresponding sections currently in the MOU
effective July 1, 2014:
Part 1:
Because Executive Management Group employees are hired as at-will employees, any reference
to completion of a six month waiting period related to the accrual and use of Administrative
Leave, Personal Leave, Vacation, or Sick Leave is hereby removed from the MOU in order to
state clearly that these are at-will positions who do not serve a probationary period, nor have any
property rights in their positions. These references were in Sections 4A, 13 (which is amended
below), 14 and 16.
Part 2:
Section 13, Personal Leave, is amended to read as follows:
Employees can use up to 40 hours of accrued sick leave, vacation, administrative leave or
holiday time as personal leave. These 40 hours can be used incrementally (i.e., 1 hour, 1/2 hour)
throughout the fiscal year. Use of this time is for situations requiring the employee's attention
and needs to be cleared with their supervisor when using this time.
Part 3:
Section 24, Retirement Benefit, is amended to add the following paragraph. All other language in
Section 24 remains unchanged:
The City pays EPMC for the various "Tiers" as outlined above and reports the value of EPMC
payments as special compensation. The parties agree that to the extent permitted by law, this is
special compensation and shall be reported as such pursuant to Title 2 CCR, Section 571(a)(1)(F)
as Value of Employer-Paid Member Contributions. The parties also agree that the City has no
additional obligation or costs should CalPERS, the State or the IRS determine otherwise.
For The City of Rancho Cucamonga: For the Executive Management Group:
