3 I. INTRODUCTION
About the Capital Improvement Program
The Town of Atherton’s Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) summarizes anticipated resources and their estimated uses for major infrastructure and other capital construction, improvement, and maintenance projects.

The CIP is a five-year planning tool that identifies anticipated capital improvements and their funding sources from fiscal years 2024/25 through 2028/29. The CIP does not appropriate funds, but rather, it functions as a budgeting and planning tool which supports appropriations that are made through adoption of the annual budget. The CIP is updated annually to reflect the latest community priorities, infrastructure master plans, completed projects, updated project cost estimates and available revenue sources.

Master Plans
Atherton’s City Council commissioned a number of Master Plans and studies, starting in FY 2012-13, in order to become well informed on the status of infrastructure needs.

These master plans, evaluations and studies are for the following Town-owned facilities:
• Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
• Holbrook-Palmer Park Master Plan
• Civic Center Master Plan
• Storm Drainage Master Plan
• Pavement Management Program Update
• Neighborhood Traffic Management Action Plan
• Street Light Inventory
The purpose of the CIP is to incorporate the results from these Plans, along with other input including resident requests, to identify and describe capital projects that will be of long-term benefit to the residents of Atherton. As such, the programs and projects enclosed in this CIP are dedicated to enhancing accessibility, safety, and the built environment throughout the Town by targeting various transportation, drainage, park, and facilities improvements.

Capital Improvement Program
Fiscal Years 2024/25 through 2028/29
4 The CIP projects were selected based on the following factors:
• Implementation of the Town’s General Plan Guidelines
• Town Council and Community direction
• Implementation of accepted and approved Master Plans
• Implementation of Facilities’ planning and priorities • Maintenance needs of roadways and safety of roadway users • Ability to improve transportation deficiencies
• Drainage facilities improvement needs
The five-year CIP identifies the highest priority capital needs that can be addressed within the available and forecasted revenue. These capital needs are matched to their eligible funding consisting of the previous year’s fund balances and five-year revenue projections identified by the Finance department.

CIP Document Organization
The CIP is organized to serves two primary purposes. First, it describes funding sources and discusses their sources and uses. Next, it provides a description of the planned transportation, drainage, park, and facility capital improvements developed through an examination of the Town’s capital needs.

As such this CIP is organized into three parts.

I. Introduction: This provides an overview of the purposes of the Capital Improvement Program.

II. Detail of Funding Sources and Revenues: This section describes the anticipated funding and revenue sources supporting the projects and programs contained in this CIP.

III. CIP Project List and Budgeting Schedule: This section provides a detailed overview of the projects and budgeting of project expenditures in relation to available forecasted funding over the next five years.

6 II. FUNDING DESCRIPTIONS
The Town of Atherton’s Capital Projects contained in this CIP are financed through a variety of funding and revenue sources. These funding sources may include:
 General Fund
 Gas Tax
 Atherton Channel Fund
 Measure A
 Measure M
 Measure W
General Fund (Capital Improvement)
The General Fund provides funding for the Town’s general programs and day-today operations. This includes Town management, administration, parks and recreation operations, public works operations, law enforcement, trash hauling, special operational programs, planning, and general Town services. It also includes an annual payment to mitigate accessibility risks from ABAG Plan, the Joint Powers Authority that provides liability insurance.

When accounting for General Fund use, the fund description on the individual project pages are listed as Capital Improvement. The General Fund includes the money raised by the local property tax for a given year as well as one-time grant funds received for specific projects and purposes. The intent is to budget annually a certain amount from the General Fund to address Town priorities.

Measure A
Measure A is a voter approved half-cent sales tax for countywide transportation projects and programs. In 2009, county voters overwhelmingly approved a reauthorization of Measure A through 2033.

The purpose of these funds are to maintain local streets and roads, repair potholes and sidewalks, develop alternative transportation options such as bicycling and pedestrian programs, and to develop and implement traffic operations and safety projects.

Capital Improvement Program
Fiscal Years 2024/25 through 2028/29
7 Measure A dollars are distributed on a formula allocation based on population and the number of road-miles. Atherton receives approximately $370,000 annually through Measure A.

Measure M
________________________________________________________________________ Approved by voters in November 2010, the Congestion Management Agency for San Mateo County levies a $10 registration fee on vehicles registered in San Mateo County. This Measure is set to expire in 2035 (25 years).

These funds help to maintain neighborhood streets, fix potholes, provide transportation options, improve traffic circulation, reduce congestion, reduce water pollution from oil and gas runoff, and provide safe routes to schools.

Approximately 50% of Measure M revenues fund Countywide Transportation Programs, and the other 50% is formula-allocated to local agencies. The Town of Atherton receives approximately $75,000 per year from Measure M.

Measure W
________________________________________________________________________ Approved by voters in November 2018, Measure W is a half-cent sales tax on qualified retail transactions for use on transportation improvements and maintain affordable transit. This Measure is set to expire in 30 years (2048).

The distribution of funds are shaped by the San Mateo County Congestion Relief Plan. The Plan includes the five (5) following investment categories:
• Countywide Highway Congestion Improvements
• Local safety, pothole and congestion relief improvements • Bicycle and pedestrian improvements
• Regional Transit Connections
• County public transportation improvements.

Ten percent (10%) of the annual revenue is allocated to the County of San Mateo and the cites of the County for transportation investments using a distribution formula that is based 50% on population and 50% on road miles (adjusted annually). The Town’s allocation of the Measure W funds is approximately 1.74% Capital Improvement Program
Fiscal Years 2024/25 through 2028/29
8 of the City/County distribution, which is projected to be approximately $145,000.

The Town may use Measure W funds for street paving and pothole repair, bicycle/pedestrian safety projects, promoting alternative modes of transportation, planning and implementing traffic and safety projects including signal coordination, and implementing advanced technologies and communications of the roadway system.

Gas Tax
Atherton receives a formula allocation of funds based upon population and lane miles. In FY 2024-25 the Town will receive approximately $195,000 in regular Gas Tax revenues. This amount is augmented with additional revenues from the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB 1). Effective November 1, 2017, the gasoline excise tax was increased 12 cents per gallon and the excise tax on diesel was increased 20 cents per gallon. SB 1 also increased the vehicle registration tax effective January 1, 2018 and an additional vehicle registration tax will be applied to zero emission vehicles effective July 1, 2020. As a result, the total Gas Tax allocations to the Town is expected to be approximately $360,000 in FY 2024/25.

With the proposed funding through the Capital Improvements Program, the Town will be able to achieve the Maintenance of Effort requirements to continue to receive SB1 funds.

Atherton Channel Fund
Fees collected by the Town to finance drainage and related improvements/ repairs and environmental monitoring for those portions of the Channel for which the Town is responsible.

17 Project Type: Streets & Transportation
Project Name: Road Maintenance Program - #56003
Project Description: This is an annual program
combining patching, sealing and overlays to maintain
roads in a cost-effective manner. Every two years, an
engineering survey of pavement condition is performed
by independent assessors, who determine a pavement
condition index (PCI) and also recommends specific
maintenance strategies for each road. Staff analyzes the data, conducts physical inspections, and recommends an
annual program to cost-effectively maintain roads. The
funds proposed for this program include the allocation of SB-1, Gas Tax, Measures A, M and W, and Capital Improvement Funds in the amount of $1,455,000 for FY 2024/25. Funds associated with the Roadway Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) approved through SB-1 in 2017 are subject to maintenance of effort requirements which is supported by the proposed Capital Improvement funds in the current and future years.

The streets are to be determined based on their PCI index listing when it comes out in November along with visual assessments and other priorities. Special attention will be paid the Town’s roadside drainage systems to ensure that the edges of pavement do not create situations that could be hazardous to pedestrians or impede drainage.
• Two-inch grind and overlay (on various streets throughout Town) – estimate $850,000 • Maintenance Dig-outs (on various streets throughout Town) – estimate $360,000 • Cape Seal/Slurry Seal (on various streets throughout Town) – estimate $370,000 Capital Improvement Program
