WHEREAS, General Manager has served since then and his employment has
been subject to an employment agreement since that date; and
WHEREAS, General Manager's terms of employment are currently set forth in a

was amended on June 28, 2018 to increase his compensation by one percent per year;
and amended on March 28, 2019 to provide a one-time incentive payment of three
percent of his annual compensation and the District contributed $25.00 per month
towards a health club or gym membership of the General Manager's choice; and on
June 22, 2020 the General Manager declined a cost of living increase to his salary due
to the COVID-19 pandemic; and
WHEREAS, the Board has considered the General Manager's performance and
has determined that it warrants an increase in his compensation equal to the U.S

Anaheim area from February to February and that General Manager should now also
receive an adjustment for the previous year; and
WHEREAS, the CPI for 2019-2020 was approximately 3.4 percent, and the CPI
for 2020-2021 was approximately 1 percent, and the parties have determined that the
General Manager's compensation should be increased by 3'/2 percent beginning July 1,
2021, which is less than CPI.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties do hereby agree to provide General Manager
with an increase in his compensation of three and one-half percent of his salary
effective July 1, 2021 and to amend the Restated 2017 Agreement accordingly:
Section 1. The General Manager's salary compensation shall be increased by
