That the Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) approving the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Hayward and the Hayward Police Officers Association (HPOA) for the period beginning July 1, 2024 through December 31, 2029 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the MOU.

SUMMARY
The current HPOA MOU expires on June 30, 2024. The proposed resolution (Attachment II) will allow the City Manager to execute an agreement with HPOA for the term beginning on July 1, 2024 through December 30, 2029. The City entered negotiations with HPOA on October 30, 2023, the parties reached a tentative agreement on April 26, 2024, and the agreement was ratified by the bargaining unit members on May 23, 2024. The new agreement will grant salary and benefit adjustments; and, employees will also continue to contribute fifteen percent (15%) toward their California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) costs and a one percent (1%) contribution towards Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) costs. The amendments allow for administrative and legal language updates and salary and benefit adjustments, resulting in additional General Fund expenditures of approximately $25.99 million dollars for a five and one half (5.5) year period (FY 2024-2029).
