Purchasing Agent Council Staff Form fl Information: Sufficient 1- 1 Review: Content I l Insufficient U Remarks: i r ariti Cooperative Agreement for Assistnace LOUISIANA COMMUNITY Urban & Community Forestry] FORESTS Description ofAssistance: Grant Context: Louisiana Community Forests( LCF) is acting as a pass- through entity for U. S. Forest Service special project funding, the State Urban Forest Resilience( SUFR) Funding. This funding was allocated to the state of Louisiana to remove and replant trees that are affected by pests and/ or are themselves pests( i. e., invasive trees). The goal of the grant is to deal with these tree- related issues especially in areas that are heavily affected by either of these pest cohorts across the state. Once removals are completed, there is a requirement for the recipients of these grants to complete a replanting that looks to increase native and/ or beneficial trees to the area that the project is working in. This grant requires communities/ organizations that apply are to supply a minimum 100% match( cash or in- kind) for the funding they request. There is a limit of$ 25, 000 per applicant. Three to four awards are expected to be awarded across the state. Please be advised that all plantings performed under U. S. Forest Service grants must be maintained and cared for at least 3 years post- installation to ensure the trees properly establish and benefit the communities in the long term. Failure to maintain these trees can lead to a disallowance of funding. Project Context: The City of Alexandria is requesting SUFR funding from LCF to remove 22 tallow trees of varying 0BH( 8- 22 inches) from the property of The Alexandria Zoo. This will be done through a contracted tree remover selected by the City through their procurement process. The resulting stumps will be treated with herbicide and/ or stumps to ground to ensure they do not return post removal. It is estimated that this removal will occur in June or July of 2026. In response to these removals, at least 45 trees will be planted( 15- gal or larger) at the zoo or approved areas within the city limits with prior approval from LCF staff. These trees will be planted by City staff, contractor, or community IIIvolunteers sometime between November 2026— February 2027. The City of Alexandria or appropriate contractors will be deployed to ensure trees are supported for the first year to establish correctly and further reach year 3 post planting to ensure long-term sustainability of the plants. Project Narrative: TITLE: INVASIVE TREE REMOVAL AT ALEXANDRIA ZOO The City of Alexandria has one of the most established urban forestry programs in the state. The city takes an active role not only in tree planting but in maintenance and long-term canopy management as is ideal for thriving canopies and their benefits in urban spaces. Invasive trees are often widely spread and can be difficult to deal with due to their persistent regrowth and lack of natural enemies in the landscape. Chinese Tallow tree ( Triadica sebifera) is no different. This tree has become widespread and pervasive in much of the state. The Alexandria Zoo has a particularly high density of this invasive and we are therefore requesting funding to remove, and herbicide/stump grind 22 Tallow trees on the zoo's property to improve the management of what is an important education tool in conservation for the Alexandria community and beyond. In addition, the City ofAlexandria will replace the trees with minimum 15-gallon size that will be strategically located throughout the Zoo to maximize ecological benefits such as shade and habitat creation.

Are you a Governmental Entity? Yes No Event 41) Pops on the River 2026 - Courage' Date of Event 4/ 25/ 2025 Organization' s Mission The mission of the Rapides Symphony Orchestra is to bring cultural enrichment and quality entertainment to the entire community through an annual series of professional music programs; and to foster the development of area musicians of all ages through performance opportunities and educational initiatives. Type of Program/ Activity Pops on the River is one of two of Rapides Symphony Orchestra' s concerts that are free and open to the public. Pops is designed to appeal to a diverse audience within the Central Louisiana community providing an evening of top- notch musical entertainment in a casual setting. Event Sponsors Traditionally, we have had many community organizations and businesses come on board as sponsors, and we expect they will partner with us again in 2023, including Roy O Martin, Red River Bank, Southern Heritage Bank, Christus Health, Cleco, GAEDA, Mid- State Orthopaedic& Sports Medicine, Calvary Conservatory of Music, Hotel Bentley, The Diamond Grill, Grits Entities, Holiday Inn Downtown, Kramer Funeral Home, La. Christian University, Bonnette Auctions, Boise Cascade, Alexandria Emergency Hospital, Aubin Law, Rapides Regional Medical Center, Edwards Jewelry, Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital, and Walker Automotive. Other Funding We sell table seating at the concert to individuals and businesses. Our goal is to raise approximately$ 7, 000 through table sales which will go toward the cost of Pops. We always apply for a Louisiana Project Grant( formerly DAF) in the amount of$ 5, 000 that, if received, will go toward the cost of the concert. Amount Requested all in- kind Property Requested Alexandria Riverfront Amphitheater, if available. ( with the Randolph Riverfront Center as a rainout location, already on the calendar). In- Kind Service Requested Garbage pickup and cans, police security( the RS0 budgets for one security person at CSPAC during indoor concerts. Given the size of Pops on the River and the concert being outside we are requesting help with additional security personnel) Funding Category Arts/ Cultural Partnership- Endeavor If you are a for-profit applicant, what is the expected private benefit to you, your partners, or members of a club if any part of any fundraising goes to an organization and part to some charitable cause? What is percentage breakdown shown in actual projections? The Rapides Symphony Orchestra is a registered 501( c)( 3) nonprofit organization; therefore, this question is not applicable. No portion of the funds generated through Pops on the River benefits any private individual, partner, or member of a club. All revenue associated with the event— including table seating sales, sponsorships, and donations— is used solely to support the mission of the Rapides Symphony Orchestra. What is( are) the goal( s) of this project?( In one sentence) Pops on the River epitomizes our mission as an organization, to enrich life in our community through symphonic music, and brings together the young and the old, people from all socioeconomic backgrounds, through the power of music. If a governmental entity, is the cooperative endeavor or intergovernmental agreement sought pursuant to local services law, joint emergency preparedness, exchange of surplus property for public safety purposes, or other?( State" other" reason). 41, N/ A If the use of public funds or property is for social welfare for the aid and support of the needy, how are targeted candidates screened? If not screened, how are they targeted for participation? N/ A Does your request or endeavor involve a nearly equal benefit to the citizens you seek to serve when compared to the money or property expended or sought to be used by the public entity? If so, how? We believe that it does. From an economic standpoint, Pops on the River is expected to draw 2, 000+ attendees to S Downtown Alexandria, generating meaningful activity for local restaurants, hotels, and nearby businesses. The event attracts not only local residents but also visitors from surrounding communities such as Woodworth, Marksville, Natchitoches, Ville Platte, Jena, Winnfield, and Fort Polk, expanding its regional impact. Additionally, the Rapides Symphony Orchestra employs professional musicians from local, regional, and statewide markets who contribute to the local economy through lodging, dining, and other expenditures during their time in Alexandria. From a cultural and community perspective, Pops on the River provides a high- quality, professionally produced orchestral performance at no cost to the public— removing financial barriers and ensuring access for individuals and families of all backgrounds. The 2026 program, featuring patriotic works such as Aaron Copland' s Fanfare for the Common Man, a world premiere by Louisiana- rooted composer Marie Chenever, and guest artists Sherman Desselle and The Victory Belles of the National WWII Museum, offers a meaningful and uniquely American artistic experience. Paired with a fireworks display along the Red River, the event creates a memorable, shared celebration for the community. Importantly, Pops on the River often serves as an individual' s first experience with live symphonic music. By presenting an accessible and engaging program in a casual, outdoor setting, the Symphony fosters long- term audience development and strengthens community connection to the arts— an investment whose value extends well beyond the event itself. If you cannot show a fair market value dollar- for-dollar match, does your plan or request involve a continuing program or relationship which has a future value attached? How so? According to research conducted by Penelope McPhee, vice- president and chief program officer of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, "... to be whole and healthy, a community must have a symphony orchestra. .. . Communities need vibrant, relevant orchestras that give meaning to people' s lives"(" Orchestra and Community: Bridging the Gap" 2004). Pops on the River is central to growing audiences who understand the importance of keeping symphonic music in our Central Louisiana area and developing a younger and more heterogeneous group of concert- goers. Only with these audiences will the RSO continue to thrive. As stated above, the Symphony is strongly committed to hiring Louisiana- based professional musicians for our performances. It is vital to our future that there is a large pool of professional, local musicians here, rather than having to relocate to find professional opportunities. What are your real and substantial obligations to achieve the proportionate return to the City of Alexandria at some point in the future? Rapides Symphony Orchestra will produce a concert of the highest quality. Joshua Zona, Music Director and Conductor, will choose a theme and repertoire that will appeal to the largest possible cross- section of our community. We will hire and pay 40- 50 professional- level musicians who complete a rigorous audition before being hired. We will house any out- of-town musicians at the Holiday Inn Downtown. We also hire and pay experts in photography, sound engineering, staging and lighting, table and chair rentals from local business, security and general labor. Outof-town musicians and guest artists are expected to generate 75- 100 hotel room nights, in addition to local spending on dining and transportation. Pops on the River 2026 will feature a thoughtfully curated, patriotic program designed to appeal to a broad cross- section of the community, including guest artists and a world premiere by a Louisiana- rooted composer from Avoyelles - Marie Chenever. The Symphony will implement a comprehensive marketing campaign with an estimated reach of 50,000+ individuals across Central Louisiana through social media, television advertising ( KALB NBC/ CBS affiliates), print media, and community partnerships. This outreach is designed to drive attendance, increase visibility for the City's riverfront, and encourage repeat visitation to downtown Alexandria. What is ( are) the expected outcome(s) or benefits(s) to the public from the event to be funded? Specify the number of persons anticipated to be served and the service( s) to be provided. Pops on the River 2026 is expected to serve 2, 000+ attendees from Alexandria, Pineville, and surrounding Central Louisiana communities. As the only large- scale, live orchestral concert in the region offered free of charge, the event provides equitable access to high- quality arts programming for individuals and families of all socioeconomic backgrounds. The concert delivers a professionally produced symphonic performance featuring 40- 50 musicians, guest artists, and a fireworks display, creating a full- scale cultural experience at no cost to the public. The informal, outdoor setting encourages broad participation across all age groups— from young children and families to teens, adults, and seniors. Historically, a significant portion of attendees are first-time symphony patrons, making this event a critical entry point to the arts. In addition to cultural enrichment, the event fosters community connection by bringing together a diverse audience in a shared public space. The anticipated outcome is not only strong attendance, but also increased awareness of and engagement with the arts, contributing to longterm audience development and continued participation in cultural programming throughout the region. Pops on the River consistently delivers a high- impact, inclusive community experience, reinforcing its role as a cornerstone cultural event for Central Louisiana. 11111 Describe the history of this program and its success. Over the past three decades, Pops on the River has become a beloved tradition in Central Louisiana. The event not only reinforces the mission of the Symphony but also seeks to stimulate audience development and participation in the regular RSO season and our other outreach efforts. Attracting new audiences is always a priority, and we firmly believe that giving back to the community instills a devotion to the community and to the arts. We have always connected with new patrons and members of our Symphony family through Pops, evidenced by an upswing in memberships and season ticket purchases after the Pops concert.

WHEREAS, the Operating and Capital Budgets for the City of Alexandria ( together, the " Budget") involve the need for using fund balance/ retained earnings to balance revenues with expenditures. The use of said funds is to cover the deficit between needed services and expenditures, balanced against the projected revenues, in order to effectively plan for the normal and extraordinary expenses to operate City government and its services and programs, thereby requiring austerity measures, conservative budgeting, and careful monitoring of the City's financial condition. WHEREAS, this Budget additionally takes into account the national economy' s recent unpredictability and market volatility coupled with the Nation and Louisiana' s mixed economic outlook involving some positive markers and potential risks from fluctuating tariffs, oil market volatility, and future federal policy changes. NOW THEREFORE: SECTION I. BE IT ORDAINED BY THE Council of the City of Alexandria, Louisiana, in legal session convened, that the Council adopts and fully appropriates the 2026/ 2027 Operating and Capital Budgets for the City as evidenced by the proposed " City of Alexandria Annual Budget 2026- 2027," to make appropriations for the ordinary and capital expenses of all city divisions, departments, offices and agencies, pensions and otherwise, provided by the individual appropriation items as detailed therein and the respective budgets included therein, a copy of which is referred to and attached hereto for greater accuracy and clarity and which line items as set out in the proposed " City of Alexandria Annual Budget 2026- 2027" are incorporated by reference herein as if each is fully stated verbatim and appropriated line for line in this section in its entirety. SECTION II. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. that the 2026- 2027 budget FY 2027) authorized number of employees for each division, department, IDoffice and agency of the City of Alexandria is hereby indicated, in detail, in this ordinance; and, provided further, that the number of authorized positions approved for each division, department, office and agency may be individually changed by the Mayor by deletion, transfer or in conjunction with an administrative reorganization under Section 4- 11 of the Home Rule Charter of the City of Alexandria. SECTION III. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. that the budget ordinance shall provide for each and every division, department, office and agency of the City; shall authorize the Mayor or designees to execute contracts in accord with the purchasing policies for ordinary expenses of the City including for basic goods and services; and any transfers of funds or expenditures by or within any division, department, office or agency shall comply with Section 5- 05 ( d) of the Home Rule Charter of the City of Alexandria or otherwise by transfers which net no additional expenditure. SECTION IV. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. that for FY 2027 the rate for electricity and natural gas sold by the City of Alexandria Utility System to the City of Alexandria shall be equal to the fuel cost only. SECTION V. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. that for FY 2027 pensions and other fringe benefits are funded as detailed in the Budget for each respective division, department, office and agency, except as otherwise modified herein by specific provision; and, further providing the Section 457 deferred compensation and retirement contribution plan for the Mayor and certain unclassified employees is funded as provided in the Budget; and, furthermore providing for and authorizing the Mayor to execute contracts and insuring agreements for employee benefits— including health, life and other optional coverages— and authorizing contracts for other insurance, including general liability and workers compensation. SECTION VI. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. that the salaries of all positions shall continue under the salary plan of the Alexandria Civil Service IDCommission approved by the City Council, and further salaries and fringe benefits of all positions shall be as designated in the 2026- 2027 ( FY 2027) Annual Budget, or as amended, except that no across- the- board per cent salary increase for a position in the classified service pay plan shall be awarded, without the Mayor' s authorization, to any position held under a probationary rule, for any special assigned position, or for an employee not qualified under the applicable human resources policies; provided, however, that the Police Department and Fire Department personnel, in the past or future, who may be covered by collective bargaining agreements with the City, the Chief of Fire, the deputy administrative fire chief, and all Assistant Chiefs of the Fire Department and the First Assistants, and the Chief of the Police Department, and any deputy chiefs of police, if personnel are excepted from recognition by collective bargaining agreements, shall be paid in accordance with the schedules and designations set out in the respective department appropriation, and except for promotions, no wage increases shall be granted to any IIemployees unless available funds appropriated are sufficient to cover the increases with no net increase to expenses, the General Fund being required to use both Prior Year Revenues and transfers from the Utility System Fund to balance revenue with expense, if in the opinion of the mayor such funds are necessary; and further provided that each member of the fire department who has three years continuous service and otherwise who qualifies for a statutory wage increase as mandated by R. S. 33: 1992( B) shall be, by the appropriation in this budget ordinance for positions in the Public Safety, fire department budget line items for positions, deemed to have received such longevity pay increase by the funds budgeted and appropriated. SECTION VII. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED, etc. the implementation of this budget shall be May 1, 2026, except as otherwise provided herein or in the opinion of the Mayor when implementation of line items hereunder are deemed necessary for such purposes necessary to administer salaries and other fringe benefits, including determining the ability of the City to administer and then to pay additional salaries and other fringe benefits contained in collective bargaining; and further otherwise that this ordinance shall become effective upon signature by the Mayor, or, if not signed or vetoed by the Mayor, upon expiration of the time for ordinances to become law without a signature by the Mayor, subject to retroactive application as provided by this section and accepted by Generally Accepted Accounting Practices ( GAAP). SECTION VIII. BE IT FURTHERMORE ORDAINED, etc. that the City hereby prioritizes the capital budget and authorizes the Administration to promulgate such rules as reasonably needed to achieve economies of scale and aid in local economic successes. Categories of priority shall be as follows: PRIORITY ONE ( I) Priority I ( P- I) projects include the REIGNITE initiative, remnant SPARC projects,
- R. I.V. E. R. Act projects, and the LSUA medical allied health complex as funded in the fiscal year as primary projects, followed by utilities, drainage and transportation projects of high need and city- wide, multi- district application. These priorities would include projects such as drainage, utility transmission, and Project ABC needs. The City' s Five- Year Capital Improvements Plan should contain 51% or more in P- I projects for the fiscal year. There shall be $ 500, 000 in contingency in P- I to commence the fiscal year. Further best planning practices, in compliance with the American Society of Civil Engineers ASCE), " Principles for Infrastructure Stimulus Investment," are those projects supported by economic stimulus investment criteria, such as: Projects must create and sustain employment increases; Investments must provide long term benefits to the public ( such as congestion relief or drainage needs); Long term maintenance and upkeep needs of all infrastructure projects, existing and new, must be taken into account; and To ensure accountability and transparency, auditing programs should be able to establish measurable stated outcomes. In order to ensure the above criteria are met, the following principles will guide Priority I selection decisions: The project should deliver measurable improvements in public safety, health, and quality of life; The project should provide substantial, broad- based economic benefit; The project should be designed and built in a sustainable and cost-effective manner, and proper consideration must be given to life-cycle costs; and The project should have a significant environmental benefit such as area restoration, improved air quality through reduced congestion and better watershed management through eliminating vulnerabilities in a system. While funds in P- I may be re- allocated as such projects are matched with other funds or become certified to be economically feasible, this Priority should exhaust itself before considering Priority II or III, and the P- I category shall allow the transfer into it from P- II as P- Is are completed or de- prioritized, subject to the minimum 51% rule. P- IIs, however, should be funded and prioritized simultaneously with P- Is since P- IIs that are readily feasible may be of high value as economic development projects and not otherwise on a P- I track. PRIORITY TWO ( II) Projects in this category would be prioritized as P- Is but are not because of one or more of the following reasons: The project is awaiting a funding match from another entity. The project is a high value economic development project, but is not strictly speaking a project meeting P- I requirements. The project does not involve public safety, drainage, or high ASCE ratings. The project can be independently phased in different priorities. The project is a " stand alone" phase completing already- finished other phases, which were of greater import. PRIORITY THREE ( III) Other projects provided for in the Five- Year Capital Improvements Plan shall be considered prioritized here, and these projects may move into P- I or P- II status generally in order, but not necessarily, depending on funding availability or other feasibility determinations. These projects may be categorized and listed in the FiveYear Capital Improvements Plan, but may not be actively worked by the City Planning Division. P- IIIs shall be reviewed, however, at least twice yearly for priority assessment, along with P- Is and P- IIs, to ensure proper oversight and movement toward completion. City Council members shall be advised of the status of these projects on a more often basis as requested. PRIORITY Indeterminate ( P- ind) All remaining projects shall be grouped as P- ind and may be in the Five-Year Capital Improvements Plan or capital budget of the City, or may be included on a master needs list maintained by the City Planning Division. These projects are neither scheduled for regular review nor given priority, but are instead a list of requested projects that have been initially vetted or requested by the City Council or public based on preliminary feasibility, efficacy and need.
