5 Staff recommendation: that the Council receive a presentation from staff regarding the status of programs and projects designated for implementation as part of the City’s current Capital Improvement Plan
Mar
k Hurley, Public Works Director introduced CIP Program Manager Allison Carrillo and Public Works Program Manager Devora Zauderer and presented the staff report. The CIP status update includes background information about the overall capital improvement plan and serves as an introduction to the CIP update process later in the fiscal year.
Al
lison Carrillo, CIP Program Manager reported that CIP projects fall into two categories of Core Infrastructure Programs and discrete Capital Improvement Projects. A core function of Public Works is to maintain and improve existing infrastructure in the public right-of-way. CIP Core Programs established include Sewer, Sidewalk, Street, and Storm Drain. Stable funding and continuous design development are necessary for these programs. Capital Improvement Projects are standalone and separate from Public Works’ responsibilities for rehabilitation and improvement of City infrastructure systems and assets. The discrete projects have distinct finishing points and require more community and inter-departmental engagement.
Dev
ora Zauderer, Public Works Program Manager indicated that Council appropriated funding for the first three fiscal years of the CIP in FY2020. The total appropriated CIP budget to date is $28.5 million, and $19.8 million has been spent or encumbered. Staff analyzed available funding resources with consideration for dedicated stable fun ding for core infrastructure. Additional funding strategies include the use of funding sources for defined purposes and grant funding opportunities to supplement planned projects.
Al
lison Carrillo, CIP Program Manager explained that a Core Infrastructure Program are structured programs for maintenance and improvement. Programs of this type are cyclic with annual schedules. The City has completed Phase 3 and Phase 4 of sidewalk improvements and Phase 5 is scheduled to call for bids in May 2022. Albany is in compliance with the US EPA (United States Environmental Agency) consent decree and sanitary sewer rehabilitation projects. Completion of work is anticipated to build approximately half of the program goal of maintaining a one-year buffer. Three pavement rehabilitation projects have been completed. The planned update to the City’s Watershed Management Plan was not completed due to limited staff resources resulting from COVID-19. Four new discrete projects have been approved by Council since adoption of the 2020 CIP update. Firehouse Doors Replacement Project is complete. Masonic Intersections Project has been awarded and construction is expected to begin in Fall 2022. San Pablo Pedestrian Improvements is in Caltrans review. Next steps include the Albany Hill Eucalyptus Project Report, 2022 P -TAP Presentation, and 2023/24- 2025/26 CIP Update.
A s
ummary of public comment is as follows: an inquiry into the City's decision to outsource power washing; a suggestion to improve the lighting on Solano Avenue and throughout the City; concerns regarding the health of asphal t construction workers during the heatwaves, and nearby dwellers without air conditioning.

Counc
il Ad Hoc Committee recommendation: that the Council direct staff to work with the Sogorea Te’ Land Trust, to prepare a budget proposal for the City to formally incorporate annual payment of the Shuumi Land Tax this year and in the future to be funded via either:
a. A reallocation of existing funds

Counc
