F. Review and Approval of the Revised Board of Directors' Policy Manual
Background: On 12/18/19, the District's legal counsel provided a draft copy of the District's Board of Directors' Policy Manual for review by each director. A copy of the draft, including staff comments, was presented to the Board of Directors on 1/15/2020 at which time each director provided comments for suggested changes. Suggested changes were to include amended content in the following areas:
• Officers of the District • Contracts, Deeds and Other Documents • Meetings • Board Compensation • Board Training and Reimbursement

H. Facility Rental, Consideration of Fee Waiver - Elks Lodge
Background: On February 28, 2019, Alex Brandon, the Elks Training Chairman of Hesperia Elks Lodge No. 2646, contacted the District's General Manager via email asking for assistance in reserving the Percy Bakker Community Center on April 24th, 25th & 26th, 2020. The facility would be used to host the Elks District Ritual Contest. The community center would be used for teams from the Victor, Antelope and Mojave Valley to compete while the Elks Lodge, across the street, would be used to host food and beverage services. This event was held ten years ago, at which time the District provided the Elks the opportunity to utilize the facility at no cost. They are now asking the District to consider a discounted or waived fee for the use of the facility for the following:
• Friday, April 24th, 3:00 - 9:00 p.m. (6 hours) • Saturday, April 25th, 8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. (10 hours) • Sunday, April 26th, 8:00 -11:00 a.m. (3 hours)
At the current rental rate, the revenue generated would total $1,295.00 (19 hours at $55.00 per hour plus a refundable deposit of $250.00). At a discounted rate of 50% the revenue generated would total $772.50 ($522.50 plus a refundable deposit of $250.00). The District will incur a direct staff cost in the amount of $295.07. The Elks Lodge is an active sponsor of the District's annual Easter Egg Hunt and an active sponsor of other community groups and organizations in the Hesperia area.
Recommendation: Consider waiving the facility rental fee for the use of the Percy Bakker Community Center by the Elks Lodge on April 24th, 25th & 26th, 2020, or an alternative action such as a discounted rate or taking no action.

Does it provide cost-appropriate programs to our service area? Does it build on and leverage our network of partners? Does it reflect our commitment to meet the diverse needs of those we serve?

openness and respect? Is it cost-efficient?

ARTICLE III ROLES OF THE BOARD Section 1. Policy Making Body The Board of Directors, as the governing body representing the people of the District, determines all questions of policy to be employed in the operation of the District. Board authority lies with a majority of the Board, not an individual Director.
Section 2. Code of Ethics The Board of Directors is committed to providing excellence in legislative leadership that results in the provision of the highest quality of services and representation to the District’s constituents. In order to assist in the governing behavior between and among members of the Board of Directors, the following guidelines are recommended:
The dignity, style, values, and opinions of each Director shall be respected. Responsiveness and attentive listening in communication are encouraged. The needs of the District’s constituents should be the priority of the Board of
Directors. The primary responsibility of the Board of Directors is the formulation and
evaluation of policy. Routine matters concerning the operational aspects of the District should be delegated to the District’s General Manager.
Directors should commit themselves to focusing on issues. The presentation of the opinions of others should be encouraged.
Different viewpoints are healthy in the decision-making process. Individuals have the right to disagree with ideas and opinions. Once the Board of Directors takes action, Directors should not create barriers to the implementation of such action.
Directors should practice the following procedures: In seeking clarification on informational and policy items, complaints from
citizens or property owners or health and safety issues, Directors are encouraged to directly approach the General Manager except in emergency situations.
In seeking clarification for administrative policy-related concerns, especially those involving personnel, legal action, land acquisition, finances and programming, said concerns may be directed to the General Manager.
The smooth working of the District is a team effort. All individuals should try to work together in the collaborative process, assisting each other in conducting the affairs of the District.
The District also may provide the Board member with materials, equipment or methods of communication to assist the Board member in fulfilling his or her obligations. For example, the District provides Board members with official email addresses. These email addresses must be used only for official, public business. The Board member should have no expectation of privacy in emails sent or received using such email account, unless protected by a recognized privilege, such as the attorney-client privilege. The Board member shall not provide access to and may not allow the use of the account by other and/or private persons.

When the District sponsors/pays for a table or entrance to an event such as a chamber mixer, fundraiser or another local event that is deemed appropriate for the District to pay for Board member(s) to attend as District representatives, priority order will be given first to the District Board and then to the HARD Foundation Board. When deemed appropriate and if available, each Board member will be given the opportunity to bring a guest representative. The intent of this policy is that District officials should not be financially burdened or unjustly rewarded as a result of business travel. Definition of “District-Related Travel”: any District-authorized travel to attend meetings, trainings or conferences on behalf of the District. District authorized travelers are responsible for being knowledgeable and complying with the following policy. The District Board of Directors sets the following payment rates for Lodging and Meals and Incidental Expenses (M&IE) for Board members engaging in District-related travel. These rates adjust annually and are specific to the area to which the Board member is traveling. The Board has adopted per diem rates for simplicity of administration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, receipts are required to be submitted by all travelers for all District business related reimbursement in compliance with Govt. Code 53232.3. District officials are expected to use good judgment in the use of District funds while on official travel to minimize the total cost to the District.
Section 2.1. Lodging and M&IE Per Diem Rates/Advance. Rates - The District will utilize the per diem rates found on the GSA website for the County and City where the meeting or training is being held, or the closest to that location, US Government General Services Administration (GSA) website (https://www.gsa.gov/travel/plan-book/per-diem-rates). The District representative must use the conference rate at the conference hotel if available. If the conference rate is not available, the General Manager or his/her designee will find a non-conference hotel at a rate as similar as possible to the conference rate. The District will make all lodging arrangements and pay directly for such lodging. The District representative may be required to provide a personal credit card for incidentals.
Section 2.1.A. Meals and Incidental Expenses (M&IE) The M&IE rates include:
Payment only for the District representative’s expenses such as meals, non-alcoholic drinks, taxes and tips.
Incidentals – e.g., tips for baggage carriers, bellhops and room cleaners. Travelers may include the daily incidental amount when determining the maximum M&IE rates. Gratuities for baggage carriers, porters and hotel staff (bellhops and room cleaners), as well as ATM fees, bank fees and check cashing fees are included in the daily incidental amount. Pursuant to state law, District Representative(s) will not be reimbursed for:
Meal expenses exceeding the maximum meal rate specified in this policy. Any portion of the per diem that covers meals that also are provided as part of
the conference fees, unless there is a business or health reason for an alternate meal.
Per Diem checks will be issued to the traveler two weeks prior to the date of travel and will be available for pick up at the District during business hours. Travelers must submit all receipts and return unused per diem funds within fifteen business days upon their return.
Section 2.2. Transportation Board members shall use government or group rates for transportation whenever available. If such rates are not available, the maximum rate for air travel is $500 + tax and fees round trip within California. All such travel must be coach class unless the Board member himself or herself pay for an upgrade. Airport shuttles and public transit should be used whenever possible, such cost not to exceed $100 per day. If a taxi is necessary, such cost shall not exceed $100 per day. Rental vehicles are permitted when other transportation is unavailable and when it is the most economical mode of transportation or necessary for District business purposes. Advance reservations should be made whenever possible and a compact or economy model car should be requested. Officials should utilize rental insurance to protect the District. Board members are encouraged to share vehicles and the District will seek the lowest possible rate. Board members shall utilize long-term airport parking whenever possible.
Section 2.2.A. Mileage Reimbursement for the cost of the use of a Board member’s vehicle will be on the basis of total miles driven and at the rate specified in the Internal Revenue Service Guidelines in effect at the time of the vehicle usage. However, the total mileage reimbursement cannot exceed the price of a coach airfare ticket to and/or from the same destination; the price will be determined by obtaining the lowest price for such travel in the two weeks prior.
Section 2.3. Amounts Above the Set Rate/Annual Increase When the amount to be expended or reimbursed is going to exceed the policy limit, the expenditure must be approved at a public meeting before it is incurred. A Board member may choose to pay additional amounts at his/her own expense.
Section 2.4. Spouses When an official takes a spouse or other family member on an official trip, the official will be personally responsible for all of the family member’s expenses and will be reimbursed only for the expenses the official would have incurred traveling alone. When traveling by airline the official must obtain a separate quote for the lowest cost airfare available for the official traveling alone. This is the amount the official can claim and must be attached to the expense statement. Meals must be identified and separated including applicable taxes and tips.
Section 2.5. Credit Cards District Board members will not be provided credit cards. Section 2.6. Reporting. At the next regular Board meeting after a Board member’s attendance at a conference or other event at District expense, he/she shall provide a brief or written report regarding
00070753.1 10
that conference. The written report may be provided on a form which will be included in the Agenda packet.
Section 2.7. Enforcement Use of public resources or falsifying expense reports in violation of this policy may result in any or all of the following: (1) discipline; (2) loss of reimbursement privileges; (3) a demand for restitution to the District; (4) civil penalties; and (5) prosecution for misuse of public resources.
Section 2.8. Expense Reports Board members must submit the appropriate District form for each trip by the date set each month for per diem advance or submissions for reimbursement. This date is chosen to coordinate with the preparation of the warrant register. Each Board member must fill out his/her own expense statement. No further travel will be allowed until the statement is submitted. Board members must attach receipts for all expenses, to their completed expense statement. If receipts are not readily available, then a written statement attesting to the cost of the item must be attached to the expense statement. All expense reports are subject to audit and verification of compliance with this policy. Inability to verify expenses will result in the expense being borne by the individual.
Section 2.9. Ethics Training Board members subject to this Policy shall attend Ethics Training as required by the Fair Political Practices Commission regulations, as those may be amended from time to time and pursuant to Government Code Section 53235. A Director shall not attend a conference or training event for which there is an expense to the District if it occurs after they have announced their pending resignation, or if it occurs after an election in which it has been determined that they will not retain their seat on the Board.
ARTICLE IX VACANCIES AND ELECTIONS Section 1. Board Vacancies Filling vacancies in the office of Director shall be in accordance with Govt. Code Section 1780 as those may be amended from time to time.
Section 2. Board Elections Board elections shall be in accordance with the provisions of the California Elections code and enabling legislation.
ARTICLE X AMENDMENTS TO POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Section 1. Amendments to Policies and Procedures The policies and procedures shall be amended only with the approval of at least a majority of the members of the District Board at a District Board meeting. In the event that a Board Policy is found to be in conflict with state or federal law or the rules of a higher authority, that portion of such policy is automatically null and void without Board action and shall be deleted from the accumulated body of policies and rules. If disagreement over the application, extent or interpretation of policy arises, the
00070753.1 11
resolution of the conflict will be based on the majority opinion of the Board. If such an interpretation is deemed to have future significance, an amendment to the applicable policy, as a Board rule, shall clearly specify the intent of the Board in interpreting the policy.

Hesperia Golf Course Notes
July Golf Operations: Overall, there was an increase in expenses by $13,021 due to an increase of Personnel Costs by $1,579, Utilities Expense by $2,034,
Grounds Maintenance by $2,043, and Building Maintenance by $790. However, revenue decreased by $7,789 primarily due to a
decrease of Green Fees by $2,292, Tournament Fees by $1,704, Monthly Golf Packages by $2,350, and Bar Revenue by $1,443.
August Golf Operations: Extra Help Maintenance Worker I increased due to 159 more hours worked from the prior month. Equipment Maintenance
increased due to a routine inspection being completed to the John Deere 8700.
September Golf Operations: Revenue and expenses decreased due to the City of Hesperia taking back responsibility for Hesperia Golf Course.
November Golf Operations: The golf cart lease continues to be paid so as to not have the account go into arrears.
December Golf Operations: The golf cart lease continues to be paid so as to not have the account go into arrears. Contact has been made with PNC where the
Customer Service Representative (CSR) stated two of the three leases' invoicing will be directed to the Golf Course beginning in February. For the third lease, the CSR stated that the Sales Representative must be contacted. A voice message was left with the
Sales Representative on 1/28/2020. Property Taxes for the Golf Carts was paid in August, but did not get recognized as an expenditure
