To: Members of the City Council
From: Mayor Jesse Arreguin
Subject: Elections Code Section 9212 Reports on Initiative Ordinances “Control of Infectious Aerosols in City Buildings” and “Large Buildings Fossil Fuel Emissions Tax”
RECOMMENDATION
Refer to the City Manager to prepare reports under the provisions of California Elections Code Section 9212 on two proposed ordinances that will appear before Berkeley voters on the November 5 ballot: The “Control of Infectious Aerosols in City Buildings” and “Large Buildings Fossil Fuel Emissions Tax” measures. Include analysis of costs to the City and other potential costs, City staffing implications, potential economic impacts and benefits, if any, on local businesses and city tax revenues, and feasibility of implementing the proposed initiative ordinances.
In addition, the Council welcomes any other information and analysis of potential interest to the City or the public, as determined by the City Manager and identified during the review process.
FISCAL IMPACTS OF RECOMMENDATION
Staff time.
CURRENT SITUATION AND ITS EFFECTS
Control of Infectious Aerosols in City Buildings:
On January 26, 2024, George Lippman and other named proponents submitted a Notice of Intent to Circulate Petition and request for Title and Summary for an initiative ordinance entitled “Control of Infectious Aerosols in City Buildings”.
The proposed initiative would establish a new city law requiring by April 1, 2025 the City to adopt an American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standard 241-2023 or standard of equal or superior stringency for the control of infectious aerosols in Occupied Buildings owned or leased by the City of Berkeley. The initiative would also require by January 1, 2025 that the City implement interim measures such as requiring all windows that are operable to be open during Operating Hours unless there is inclement weather and purchasing and installing HEPA filters for areas of Occupied City Buildings where windows cannot open.
While this initiative would establish stringent air quality standards that will improve the health and safety of interior spaces for City employees and customers, it is currently unknown what the practical effect of adopting an ASHRAE standard means for existing city facilities. The City Manager should look at the air quality standards proposed in this
measure, and any other air quality standards applicable, including those under consideration by State or Federal government. The report should explain in detail what the air quality standard means and how it would be applied.
If the voters approve this initiative ordinance, the City Manager, Council, and public should understand what is involved in implementing it and the cost and feasibility of implementation. Specifically, several City office buildings including 1947 Center Street and 2180 Milvia Street are historic landmarks. The report should look at the technical feasibility and costs of retrofitting these buildings to apply the new air quality standards and systems. In addition, the installation of new systems would require ongoing monitoring and maintenance which would require city resources. Lastly, the reporting requirements prescribed in the initiative will require staff time to ensure that systems are functioning and continuously meet the required air quality standards.
If significant renovations or installations of new systems are required to meet these standards in existing city buildings, then there needs to be an assessment of the costs, so that the Council can budget sufficient funding if the initiative passes in November.
Large Buildings Fossil Fuel Emissions Tax:
On February 28, 2024, Daniel Tahara and other named proponents submitted a Notice of Intent to Circulate Petition and Request for Title and Summary for the initiative ordinance entitled “Large Buildings Fossil Fuel Emissions Tax”. According to the Notice of Intent, if approved, the initiative would add a new Chapter 7.77 to the Berkeley Municipal Code to impose an excise tax on the consumption of natural gas in large buildings, the proceeds of which would fund climate mitigations strategies.
The impact of this measure on restaurants and other businesses is unknown, and additional information is needed to understand the economic impacts of this measure as well as potential benefits. In addition, a detailed analysis is necessary around implementation and resources needed to staff monitoring, enforcement and collection of this new tax measure.
California Elections Code Section 9212 authorizes the legislative body of the city [the City Council] to refer a proposed initiative measure to a city agency or agencies for a report on the impacts of the proposed initiative, including the fiscal impacts or any other matters that Council requests to be in the report. Section 9212 requires that the report shall be presented to the Council within the time prescribed by the Council, but no later than 30 days after the elections officially certifies to the City Council the sufficiency of the petition.
Initiative proponents were notified by the City Clerk that the Register of Voters has verified the minimum number of signatures necessary for these initiatives to qualify for the November 5, 2024 ballot. Council is required to take action on all qualified measures prior to August 9th, 2024.
Given that these measures may be placed on the ballot in the coming weeks and submitted to the voters, this report is time-sensitive so that the Council, staff and public will have information on the effects of these initiatives.

BACKGROUND
Authorization of Funding for Community Survey: City Council allocated $100,000 in the FY2024 Budget for the “Vision 2050 Complete Streets Parcel Tax Community Engagement and Program Plan” to do a community survey for a potential related ballot measure.
ACTION CALENDAR
Community Survey for Potential November 2024 Ballot Measures May 24, 2024 City Council Action on March 12, 2024: In an item sponsored by Council member Taplin the City Council authorized the City Manager to expand the scope of the Vision 2050 Complete Streets Parcel Tax Community Engagement and Program Plan in the FY 2024 Budget to consider additional revenue sources: (1) potential ballot referenda for an increase to Berkeley’s Parks Tax and/or (2) renewing the Measure P Real Property Transfer Tax beyond 2028; and refer to the City Attorney for analysis of using the Community Engagement and Program Plan funds for community survey purposes.
Parks Tax
Parks, Recreation & Waterfront Commission Action on November 8, 2023: On November 8, 2023 the Parks, Recreation and Waterfront Commission approved a motion to recommend to Council to include an increase in the Parks Tax by 4cts/SF or ~20% in a community survey for possible November 2024 ballot measures. City Council took-action to approve this on 12/12/2023.
Parks Tax History Establishment: The Parks Tax was established in 1997, replacing the Landscape Maintenance Tax. This Parcel Tax was amended in 2014 with 75% voter approval that increased the per square foot tax rate from $0.1256 to $0.1466 (approximately a 17% increase) and added an inflation escalator, such that the yearly increase can be tied to either the CPI or the PIG, whichever is greatest.
Allowable expenditures include expenses related to the acquisition and maintenance of improvements to City parks, trees and landscaping. The current FY24 revenues are expected to be approximately $17.6M.
The Parks Tax is generally healthy, but increased operational costs (some at the Waterfront to offset the Marina Fund in FY23 and FY24), and Capital Improvement costs will lead to operating losses between $1.2- 3.1M in FY24, FY25 and FY26. The fund balance will be approximately 8.4%, less than $1.6M, by the end of FY26 (see attached Parks Tax 5 Year Plan).
Purpose of Possible Increases to Parks Tax: The November 8, 2023 Commission report references 3 potential areas in which additional Parks Tax funding should be used. These include the following:
-Parks and Landscape Areas in the Waterfront
The Marina Fund has always paid for all operational costs associated with the Waterfront, including parks and landscaping costs, despite these costs being eligible for the Parks Tax. Staff estimate that approximately $1.55M/year (see Parks Tax Potential Increase excel file for details) of Waterfront costs are associated with parks, park buildings and landscaping and therefore Parks Tax eligible.
ACTION CALENDAR
Community Survey for Potential November 2024 Ballot Measures May 24, 2024 The Marina Fund has been challenging to keep in the positive and by the late 1990s has showed signs of distress. An operational deficit has existed since 2008, and because of the failure of much of its original infrastructure, safety concerns that developed in the Waterfront, and COVID-19, the Marina Fund deficit has increased.
Since 2008, the City has kept the fund in the positive by reducing full-time positions, reducing Marina Fund spending on CIP and major maintenance, and most recently buttressing the fund with COVID relief (American Rescue Plan Act) funds and General Fund. General Fund support has been needed since 2021 to maintain Waterfront operations. In 2023, the fund is being buoyed by improved revenue forecasts. Marina slip occupancy rose this year to 86% (from 78% in 2020), and is expected to continue to increase with multiple capital improvements underway. Additional revenue is projected from the eventual lease of 199 Seawall (former Hs Lordships), and higher rent from existing tenants as well as special event revenue as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. These policy actions and improved revenue are projected to reduce but not eliminate the Marina Fund operating deficit from $1.4M to an estimated $650k by 2027.
The fund balance will be exhausted in FY25, with $704k needed to maintain operations.
The additional $1.55M to cover Waterfront parks and landscaping will ensure the Marina Fund’s solvency for many years to come.
-Tree Planting
Since the establishment of the Parks Tax, the Urban Forestry unit has primarily used State grant funds to purchase trees and tree planting supplies, while using Parks Tax funded positions to plant trees citywide. Urban Forestry staff typically dedicated time during the late Winter and early Spring to tree planting, while breaking from working on pruning and removals to plant about 200 new trees in parks, medians and sidewalk planting strips each year.
Because of the recent drought conditions resulting in the death of many City trees, the aging of the City’s urban forest and the need for fire fuel reduction in the certain areas of the City, City staff have had to remove significant numbers of trees. These removals, which have resulted in increased work, combined with the threat of negative effects related to climate change, have made it important for the City to plant more trees.
Additionally, in the last eight years many State and Federal grants have focused on providing tree planting funds to only plant areas with total low tree canopy. The City has received four of these grants since 2016. In 2018, Council began allocating $75,000 of Parks Tax CIP funds to plant trees in areas of the City not covered by State and Federal grants.
The need to plant more trees, the increased work due to climate change (more tree removals and increase in the amount of required young tree care) and the limitation of funds for tree planting has resulted in the need to establish a Tree Planting Unit that is in addition to the Urban Forestry staff who prune and remove trees. In FY24, Council authorized a new position to supervise tree planting activities funded by the Parks Tax.
The department has been able to hire 2 project-based positions with grant funds and
ACTION CALENDAR
Community Survey for Potential November 2024 Ballot Measures May 24, 2024 expects to plant over 700 trees in 2024. Unfortunately, these project-based positions have been difficult to keep filled because they are temporary positions and the grants contain limited funding for staff. The goal is to establish career positions and budget that are dedicated to planting trees throughout the City to replace our aging urban forest, ensure a high number of tree plantings each year, and have funding for match requirements for more potential grants. Staff estimates these ongoing costs to be approximately $660,000.
-Annual CIP
The Parks, Recreation & Waterfront (PRW) annual/baseline Capital Improvement Project (Baseline CIP) and major maintenance funding has historically come from the CIP Fund, Parks Tax, Marina Fund and the Camps Fund. Other funding sources such as grants, bonds (T1 most recently), insurance claims, General Fund, Bayer Fund and developer agreements have also contributed to CIP project funding. From 2000 to 2003 the annual General Fund (CIP) contribution was $750,000. By 2007 the allocation was reduced to $400,000: $200,000/each for ADA and playground safety improvements.
This changed in the FY23 and FY24 budget cycle when PRW Baseline CIP funding was increased to $2,000,000 in FY23 and $2,400,000 in FY24. In FY25 and FY26, this allocation is proposed to be reduced to $400,000 again.
Since the early 2000s, the Parks Tax contributed $250,000 per year to PRW Baseline CIP. When Measure F passed in 2014 this allocation rose to $1,000,000. Since then, the allocation has risen slightly to $1,065,000 and will be $1,090,000 in FY26. With the Marina and Camps operational funds struggling to stay in the positive and unable to contribute to annual CIP, the Parks Fund will need to play an increasing role in the annual allocated funding for Capital Improvement Projects. A 15% and 20% increase in the Parks Tax will produce approximately $530,000 and $1.45M respectively in additional Annual CIP which will help to offset the $225M of PRW Unfunded projects (see attached PRW Unfunded list).
Measure P
Measure P provides annual funding from real property transfer taxes to pay for homeless services. Revenues, which have ranged from ~$6M to ~$20M, fluctuate greatly with market conditions.
Berkeley voters passed Measure P in November 2018 with 72.4% approval. The original ballot question read:
Shall ordinance raising funds for general municipal purposes such as navigation centers, mental health support, rehousing and other services for the homeless, including homeless seniors and youth; increasing the real property transfer tax for ten years from 1.5% to 2.5% for property sales and transfers over $1,500,000, adjusted annually to capture the top approximately 33% of transfers; generating
ACTION CALENDAR
Community Survey for Potential November 2024 Ballot Measures May 24, 2024 an estimated $6,000,000 - $8,000,000 annually; and establishing Homeless Services Panel of Experts to recommend homeless services, be adopted?
Measure P went into effect on January 1, 2019 and, absent an extension, will sunset on January 1, 2029.
Purpose of Possible Increases and Extension of Measure P: The City is currently using funding from Measure P to establish new permanent housing, address immediate street conditions and hygiene, prevent households from becoming homeless and provide emergency shelter and temporary accommodation. The funds have had a significant impact on homeless services in the City of Berkeley through supporting permanent housing, immediate street conditions and hygiene, homelessness prevention, and emergency shelter.
Importantly, Measure P is not the City’s only funding for homeless services; while a significant source, it leverages millions of dollars in other State and Federal resources:
for example, $10M in State Encampment Resolution Funding and over $30M in Homekey funding, which together have helped Berkeley create 177 new units of noncongregate interim and permanent housing units for persons experiencing homelessness. However, Measure P made up by far the largest part (66%) of the more than $35 million the City allocated to affordable housing, homelessness services, and tenant supports in the 2023–24 fiscal year.
It has dramatically increased the City’s ability to open new homelessness resources. As such, the latest Point in Time Count data from January 2024 indicates that Berkeley’s homeless system is performing the way a system that has received a sustained influx in recent spending, both directly from Measure P and in Measure P’s direct leverage of State resources, would expect it to: fewer people are on our streets (45% reduction in street homelessness), more are in shelter (54% increase in sheltered homelessness), and more of them are being connected to solutions that permanently resolve their homelessness (21% reduction overall).
By extending and/or increasing Measure P, the City can continue these efforts around providing affordable housing, homelessness service and tenant supports.
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY AND CLIMATE IMPACTS
There are no identifiable environmental effects associated with the subject of this report.
POSSIBLE FUTURE ACTION
Typically, when the City is reviewing potential revenue measures or increases and/or extensions to existing taxes, staff and City Council will start 6 to 9 months in advance and include two community surveys prior to City Council taking an action to put a revenue measure, or an increase to an existing measure, on the ballot. This year, with the initial, related City Council action occurring in March, coupled with the statutory
ACTION CALENDAR
Community Survey for Potential November 2024 Ballot Measures May 24, 2024 deadline to file appropriate language with the County by August 9 at 5:00pm, and the need for the City Attorney to review and produce the needed language, the timeline for completing the community survey is dramatically reduced.
Staff has completed the RFP process and awarded a contract to Lake Research Partners to complete an 18-minute survey in late May or early June, so that City Council can consider possibilities from mid-June till mid-July, allowing sufficient time to submit final language to the Alameda County Registrar of Voters Office by the August 9 deadline.
RATIONALE FOR RECOMMENDATION
An increase in the Parks Tax and an increase and/or extension of Measure P could result in additional revenues as described in the Current Situation and Its Effects section of this report. A community survey will be a key step in determining voter interest.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS CONSIDERED
No alternative actions have been considered.

Banners from a survey of 500 likely
November 2024 voters in Berkeley, CA
May 30 – June 4, 2024
SURVEY METHODOLOGY
Lake Research Partners designed and administered this su rvey, which was conducted between May 30 – June 4 , 20 24 by live telephone interview and text -to-online in English. The survey reached 500 likely November general election voters in Berkeley, CA.
The sample was stratified by gender, age, region, region and gender, party registration, race, and race and gender to reflect the demographic composition of likely voters.
Where there were slight differences between our survey sample and the expected voting population, data were weighted accordingly.
In interpreting survey results, all sample surveys are subject to possible sampling error; that is, the results of a survey may differ from those which would be obtained if the entire population were interviewed. The size of the sampling error depends upon both the total number of respondents in the survey and the percentage distribution of responses to a particular question. For example, if 50% of respondents answered “Yes” to a particular question, we can be 95% confident that the true percent age will fall within 4.4% of this percentage, or from 4 5.6% to 54.4%. The table below represents the estimated sampling error for different percentage distributions of responses. Of course, the sampling error for sub-groups is greater.

Next you will [hear/see] a few different versions of ballot measures that may appear on the ballot in Berkeley this November. This will include different ways and levels of funding for the measures. Here is the first measure.
Q6. SSA: [PARKS TAX – 20%] This is a ballot measure that would provide funding through an increase in Berkeley’s existing parks tax in order to:
• Establish a city-wide tree planting unit to plant trees throughout the city; • Provide increased annual funding for physical improvements in city parks; and • Apply the city’s parks budget to all parks, including the Berkeley waterfront which currently doesn’t receive parks tax funding.
Shall the measure increasing the rate of the City’s existing special tax for parks, trees, and landscaping maintenance from $0.2130 to $0.2556 per square foot (of taxable improvements), generating an estimated additional $3.7 million annually for a total of $22 million annually, be adopted?

Supporters say that Berkeley’s parks and trees are vital for our communities, families, seniors, mental health, clean environment, and climate resilience. This modest funding increase will address the need to plant and maintain trees and improve green spaces and park s facilities in every neighborhood with the growing threat of climate change. This modest funding increase will address these needs in all areas of the city, including parks and landscaped areas at the waterfront that are not currently funded by the parks budget, and improve facilities for everyone in Berkeley.
Opponents say that Berkeley taxpayers keep getting soaked for more and more increases with little to show for it. We funded streets, and the streets are still a mess. We funded housing, and housing costs and homelessness are worse than ever. This measure will funnel our tax money to benefit wealthy boat owners who use the waterfront, not the rest of us in Berkeley. We need to look more closely at this high-tax, high-cost city government, cut wasteful and unnecessary spending, and clean up our parks with existing funds.

Supporters say that Berkeley’s parks and trees are vital for our communities, families, seniors, mental health, clean environment, and climate resilience.

Q13. [HOMELESS EXTENSION W/ TIERED INCREASE] Next you will [hear/see] two statements made by people who support or oppose the homeless services tax measure described earlier: [ROTATE STATEMENTS]
Supporters say that Berkeley has made real progress on homelessness, especially encampments, with the funding approved in 2018. The funding approved in 2018 has leveraged over $10 million in state and other outside funding, enabling the City to triple the number of beds dedicated to people living in encampments and permanently house over 1,500 people. The current funding is providing measurable results, and extending and increasing this funding now will continue to build upon this success by helping address rising program costs.
This modest funding will address these needs in all areas of the city and improve Berkeley’s quality of life for all.
Opponents say that Berkeley taxpayers keep getting soaked for more and more increases with little to show for it. We funded streets, and the streets are still a mess. We funded housing, and housing costs and homelessness are worse than ever. We need to look more closely at this high-tax, high-cost city government, cut wasteful and unnecessary spending, and fund homeless services and housing with existing funds.
Sometimes in a survey like this, people change their minds.
This is a ballot measure that would extend and increase the time-limited real estate transfer tax voters approved in 2018 to fund homeless services.
Shall the measure setting the existing tax for general government use on transfers of real property at 2.5% of a property’s value for properties valued $1.5M or higher, and increasing the rate from 2.5% to 3% for properties valued $3M or higher, and increasing the rate from 2.5% to 3.5% for properties valued $10M or higher; removing its January 2029 expiration date; generating an estimated additional $2M to $4M for a total of $9M to $11M annually, be adopted?
If the election were held today, would you vote yes or no on this measure, or are you undecided?
[IF YES/NO]: And is that Yes/No strongly or not so strongly? [IF UNDECIDED]: Well, to which side do you lean?

Now I am going to read you again another version of one of the measures that could be on the ballot.
Q14. [HOMELESS EXTENSION – NO INCREASE] This is a ballot measure that would extend, but not increase, the time-limited real estate transfer tax voters approved in 2018 to fund homeless services.
Shall the measure setting the existing tax for general government use on transfers of real property at 2.5% of a property’s value for properties valued $1.5M or higher and removing its January 2029 expiration date estimated to generate $7-$9M annually, be adopted?
Sometimes in a survey like this, people change their minds. If the election were held today, would you vote yes or no on this measure, or are you undecided?
