CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: February 16, 2023
From: Abby Partin, Human Resources Administrator
Subject: Approve Resolution Amending the Current Public Works Maintenance Worker I/II and Public Works
Maintenance Lead Worker Job Descriptions
Community Goal/Result
Fiscally Prudent, Safe Community
Purpose
To continue to provide high level of service from the Public Works Department and to ensure the community continues to receive excellent service by retaining and attracting exceptional employees in a financially prudent manner.

Recommendation
Approve Resolution amending the current Public Works Maintenance Worker I/II and Public Works Maintenance Lead Worker job descriptions.

Background
On or around September 2022, the Public Works Team Leaders met with the Public Works Director to discuss and update the Public Works Maintenance Workers I/II and Public Works Maintenance Lead Worker certification requirements to provide clear expectations for each classification and its sub-groups.

Discussion
Historically, the Marina Maintenance Worker, Park Facilities Maintenance Worker, and Public Works Maintenance Worker (Buildings and Grounds, Sewer and Water) I/II job descriptions were separate documents and did not include certification requirements. To better meet the department-wide needs going forward and for clarity purposes, staff is recommending a comprehensive Public Works Maintenance Worker I/II job description that encompasses all five (5) sub-groups- Parks Facilities, Marina, Buildings and Grounds, Sewer and Water, with descriptions of their unique specialties corresponding to their functions and varying certification requirements. The amended Public Works Maintenance Lead Worker job description has the same format and structure as the Maintenance Worker I/II listing the required certifications for each sub-group. The proposed changes for the two job descriptions were discussed with the General Employees Association group for any comments and questions as the incumbents are members of this employee group. The group had no concerns. 14 C.

Request to Seek Donations/Sponsorships for the 2023 Summer Concerts in the Park Series Page 1 of 2

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: February 16, 2023
From:Jeff Franco, Recreation Coordinator
Subject: Request to Seek Donations/Sponsorships for the 2023 Summer Concerts in the Park Series
Community Goal/Result
Community Building, Fiscally Prudent
Purpose
Provide the community an opportunity take ownership and contribute toward the City’s Concerts in the Park series.

Recommendation
Grant permission to City staff to seek donations/sponsorships from Brisbane community members and businesses for the 2023 Summer Concerts in the Park series.

Background
The Concerts in the Park series has existed in Brisbane for more than 15 years. Sponsorships have always provided the community a way, not only to contribute, but to be personally engaged in the process of bestowing entertainment upon their fellow residents. With the assistance from community-based sponsorships, City staff strive to procure the highest quality bands to perform in the concert series.

Every year the goal is to continually raise the bar to be able to deliver community favorite bands or new and polished bands that will entertain Brisbane residents. The average sponsorship totals over the past 5 years have been between $11,000-$14,000, which has helped to achieve that goal.

Discussion
Parks & Recreation department staff seek permission to secure donations/sponsorships from Brisbane community members and businesses for the 2023 Summer Concerts in the Park series.

Fiscal Impact
This community-based fundraising approach diminishes the burden on the City’s general fund.

Consistent with past fundraising efforts, staff aspire to secure $11,000-$14,000 in sponsorships and donations to cover non-personnel expenses associated with facilitating the Summer Concert series.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: February 16, 2023
From: Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Subject: Municipal Code Changes to Sewer System Chapter Community Goal/Result: Ecological Sustainability
Purpose
To introduce an ordinance that will update the municipal code chapter relating to joint sewer laterals; this action is consistent with the community’s goals of making decisions based on stewardship of the environment, and reducing waste streams.

Recommendation
Introduce an Ordinance, waiving first reading, amending Section 13.04.420 of Chapter 13.04 of the Brisbane Municipal Code pertaining to “Sewer System .” Introduction and adoption of this Ordinance is not subject to further environmental review because it is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). CEQA Guidelines, section 15378 (b) (2).

Background
Paragraph I of BMC §13.04.420 states:

BMC §13.04.430 provides detailed conditions under which the Director of Public Works may approve a joint sewer lateral, including paragraph “G”, which is nearly identical to the language quoted above:
1 of 6
33 E.

Ordinance No. - - - – Sewer System Page 2 of 3
Discussion
In discussion with legal counsel, there seems to be no added value to have the City Council approve by Resolution a private sewer lateral on another’s property, when the exact same requirements (minus the passing of a Resolution) are also found in the conditions imposed on the Public Works Director. An argument might also be made that the requirement to obtain Council’s approval is overly restrictive on the property rights of the landowner who would grant the easement.

In practice over the last 22 years, the Council has not questioned any request to approve a joint sewer lateral. When willing parties do desire to enter into a joint sewer lateral agreement, this action is to the benefit of the city because it provides specificity as to responsibility for repair and maintenance of sewer laterals, which has in past been problematic when a shared lateral overflowed without benefit of assigned responsibility.

The recommended action removes only the requirement for Council to approve joint sewer laterals by Resolution. All other existing requirements remain in effect. This action will expedite the processing of shared sewer lateral agreements. 2 of 6
34 E.

Ordinance No. - - - – Sewer System Page 3 of 3
Environmental Review
Introduction and adoption of this Ordinance is not a project under CEQA because it is a continuing administrative activity, such as general policy and procedure making, and not applied to any specific instance. CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378 (b)(5). Accordingly, no further environmental review is necessary.

Fiscal Impact
None as a direct result of the recommended action.

Measure of Success
An updated sewer system municipal code chapter that expedites the processing of shared sewer lateral approvals.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: February 16, 2023
From: John Swiecki, Community Development Director
Subject: SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District; Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4; Zoning text amendment to Title 17, Chapter 17.18 of the Brisbane Municipal Code (BMC) to update existing research and development use provisions and performance standards; and finding that this project is exempt from environment review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(a).

COMMUNITY GOAL/RESULT
Safe Community - Residents and visitors will experience a sense of safety.

PURPOSE
To update the research and development (R&D) permitted and conditional use provisions contained in the SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District zoning, Brisbane Municipal Code Chapter 17.18.

RECOMMENDATION
Decide on the draft ordinance to amend the SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District R&D provisions (see Attachment 1).

BACKGROUND
BMC Section 17.02.675 defines research and development as “a use engaged in studying, testing, designing, analyzing and experimenting with potential or existing products, processes or services, including cannabis and cannabis products.”
On June 16, 2008, City Council adopted zoning provisions, via Ordinance 528, allowing for R&D uses as either permitted by-right or as conditional uses in the Sierra Point Commercial District.

With regards to using live animals, the ordinance provisions permitted by-right, R&D on live insects, rodents, rabbits, fish, and amphibians. R&D involving the use of live dogs, cats or nonhuman primates was prohibited. Use of other live animals that are not named as permitted or prohibited are subject to a conditional use permit. Additionally, a provision was included 40 F.

February 16, 2023 Meeting

that City Council is named as the approving authority instead of the Planning Commission, as is the case with all other use permits.

In 2022, Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) applied for a use permit to conduct R&D using minipigs at 1400 Sierra Point Parkway. That has been the only R&D use permit application filed to date pursuant to the regulations described above. That application was heard by City Council on May 19, 2022, continued for further public hearing and then withdrawn by the applicant on August 26th, before a decision was made. Following the withdrawal of that application, the City Council directed staff to initiate a zoning code amendment to consider updates to the live animalstesting provisions. An ad hoc City Council subcommittee (Councilmembers Cunningham and Mackin) met on October 31, 2022 and indicated a desire to consider prohibiting the use of all animals except those expressly permitted under the ordinance, thereby eliminating the category of conditionally permitted animal use. The subcommittee also expressed interest in considering the removal of rabbits from the R&D permitted uses list.

A public hearing was held at the Planning Commission on January 26, 2023 to consider the following draft amendments:
• Elimination of the use permit category of R&D using live animals. Thus, R&D using specifically named live animal groups would be permitted by right, and the use of all other animals would be prohibited.
• Rabbits would be removed from the permitted R&D uses category. • Permitted R&D uses would be expanded beyond insects to the larger category of invertebrates (i.e. animals without a backbone such as insects, spiders, worms, etc.).

Permitted uses would also be expanded from amphibians to also include reptiles. • Aside from animal testing, use permits for R&D utilizing biological agents exceeding National Institute of Health (NIH) Risk Group 3 would still be required, but the approving authority would be the Planning Commission, instead of City Council, with Council still being the authority on appeal of a Planning Commission decision, as is the process for other use permits.
• An organizational cleanup of the performance standard provisions was also included in the draft ordinance.

The January 26, 2023 Planning Commission report and minutes are attached for reference. The Planning Commission, by a vote of 3-1, recommended that City Council deny the proposed ordinance. The Planning Commission resolution, draft minutes and agenda report are provided in Attachments 3, 4 and 5. Public correspondence to the Commission is provided in Attachment

6. 41
F.

February 16, 2023 Meeting

Page 3 of 4 ends

DISCUSSION:

A summary of the Planning Commission’s discussion of the draft ordinance is provided in the draft minutes, Attachment 4. In summary, the Commissioners voting against the amendment expressed their concern over limiting R&D using live animals as proposed and expressed a desire to allow the scientific community to take the lead regarding the need for animal studies, while the dissenting Commissioner spoke in favor of further limiting animal testing as proposed.

There was also some discussion of FDA Modernization Act 2.0, passed by Congress in December 2022, which removed the requirement to use animal testing in drug development. It allows drug companies the option of using "nonclinical test” instead of tests on animals when making new drug submissions to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This allows for a shift away from mandated animal studies for FDA approval, but does not go so far as to prohibit animal studies. Note that animal care at R&D facilities is the purview of the U.S. Dept of Agriculture (USDA).

The City Council has a few options with this application.

1. Vote to deny the zoning text amendment, thereby affirming the Planning Commission’s recommendation. This would keep the existing provisions of BMC Chapter 17.18 unchanged. Note that under the current ordinance, there are no special findings provided for R&D use permits, but rather the standard findings contained in BMC Section 17.40.060 apply. That is, “In considering an application, the planning commission shall consider and give due regard to the nature and condition of all adjacent uses and structures, and to general and specific plans for the area in question. The planning commission shall determine whether or not the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use applied for will, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or whether it will be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the city. If the planning commission finds that the aforementioned conditions will not result from the particular use applied for, it may grant the use permit.” These findings focus on potential impacts to neighbors, but do not specifically address issues of animal use related to R&D work. It does not appear the current findings are well suited to address concerns regarding animal testing.

2. Council may reject the Commission’s recommendation and adopt the zoning text amendment as proposed. Clean and redlined versions of the draft ordinance are provided in Attachments 1 and 2.
42 F.

3. Council may adopt an amendment that is different from what has been provided. In this case, depending on Council’s direction, staff may need to bring a revised draft ordinance back to Council for consideration. Council may provide direction and refer this matter back to the Planning Commission for further study.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

MEASURE OF SUCCESS
To provide clear R&D provisions in the BMC.

D. PUBLIC HEARING: SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District; Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4; Zoning text amendment to Title 17, Chapter 17.18 of the Brisbane Municipal Code (BMC) to update existing research and development use provisions and performance standards; and finding that this project is exempt from environment review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(a); City of Brisbane, applicant.

Note: This item was continued from the Planning Commission meeting of January 12, 2023.

No hearing was held on January 12th.

Senior Planner Johnson gave the staff presentation and answered question on how the animals were determined to be included or precluded from animal testing under the proposed amendment and clarified the history of the research and development use provisions and performance standards in the SP-CRO district.

Acting Chairperson Funke opened the public hearing.

Senior Planner Johnson read a written comment from Bill Van Raam, Brisbane resident, against the proposed ordinance amendment and in favor of allowing animal testing.

Brisbane residents Kim Follien and Michael Barnes also spoke against the proposed amendment and in favor of allowing animal testing.

With no one else wishing to address the Commission, a motion by Commissioner Gooding, seconded by Commissioner Sayasane to close the public hearing was approved 4-0.

The Commission deliberated on the proposed amendment. Commissioner’s Gooding, Lau and Funke expressed concerns about limiting animal testing as proposed. The three Commissioners acknowledged recent federal legislation regarding animal testing, FDA Modernization Act 2.0, which removed the requirement to use animal testing in drug development. However, they expressed a desire to allow the scientific community to take the lead regarding the need for future animal studies and indicated that there was insufficient information regarding the viability of alternative models for the various kinds of medical research and that some amount of animal testing is still necessary to advance medicines and medical procedures that are beneficial to humans. Additionally, it was expressed that prohibitions on animal testing would simply push R&D companies to other cities, while Brisbane residents would still benefit from such R&D testing.

Commissioner Sayasane expressed her opinion that the City has the right to reflect its community values in its zoning regulations and supported the further limitation on animal testing in Brisbane.

After deliberation, a motion by Acting Chairperson Funke, seconded by Commissioner Lau, recommending City Council denial of Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4 via adoption of Resolution 2022-RZ-4 was approved 3-1. Commissioner Sayasane voted against the motion.

Acting Chairperson Funke read the appeals procedure.

PLANNING COMMISSION AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: 1/26/2023
From: Ken Johnson, Senior Planner
Subject: SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District; Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4; Zoning text amendment to Title 17, Chapter 17.18 of the Brisbane Municipal Code (BMC) to update existing research and development use provisions and performance standards; and finding that this project is exempt from environment review under CEQA Guidelines Section 15183(a); City of Brisbane, applicant.

REQUEST: To update the research and development (R&D) permitted and conditional use provisions in the SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District.

RECOMMENDATION: Recommend City Council adoption of Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4 via adoption of Resolution 2022-RZ-4 (Attachment A).

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION: The project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15183(a) in that this proposal falls within a class of projects which are consistent with existing zoning or general plan policies for which an EIR was certified and shall therefore not require further review.

APPLICABLE CODE SECTIONS: Procedures for zoning amendments are provided in BMC Chapter

17.50. The proposed updates for this amendment pertain to R&D uses and are contained in BMC Chapter 17.18, Sections 17.18.020, 17.18.030, 17.18.035 and 17.18.045. Additionally, BMC Section 17.02.675 provides the City’s definition of research and development.

BACKGROUND: BMC Section 17.02.675 defines research and development as “a use engaged in studying, testing, designing, analyzing and experimenting with potential or existing products, processes or services, including cannabis and cannabis products.” On June 16, 2008, City Council adopted zoning provisions via Ordinance 528 to allow for R&D uses as either permitted by-right or as conditional uses in the Sierra Point Commercial District.

The provisions of that ordinance, with some exceptions, permitted R&D uses by right in the district. With regards to using live animals, the ordinance provisions permit by-right, R&D on live insects, rodents, rabbits, fish, and amphibians. R&D involving the use of live dogs, cats or nonhuman primates was prohibited. Use of other live animals that are not named as permitted or prohibited are subject to a conditional use permit, with a special provision that City Council is named as the approving authority instead of the Planning Commission. 54 F.

No special findings were provided for R&D use permits, but the standard findings contained in BMC Section 17.40.060 apply, “In considering an application, the planning commission shall consider and give due regard to the nature and condition of all adjacent uses and structures, and to general and specific plans for the area in question. The planning commission shall determine whether or not the establishment, maintenance or operation of the use applied for will, under the circumstances of the particular case, be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or whether it will be injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the city. If the planning commission finds that the aforementioned conditions will not result from the particular use applied for, it may grant the use permit.” These conditions focus on potential impacts to neighbors, but do not specifically address issues of animal care related to R&D work. Animal care at R&D facilities is the purview of the U.S. Dept of Agriculture (USDA).

In 2022, Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS) applied for a use permit to conduct R&D using minipigs at 1400 Sierra Point Parkway, the only R&D use permit application filed to date pursuant to the regulations described above. That application was heard by City Council on May 19, 2022, continued for further public hearing and ultimately withdrawn by the applicant before a decision was made. Following that application, City Council directed staff to initiate an update to consider updates to the use provisions for live animals. Additionally, a City Council subcommittee met on October 31, 2022 and indicated a desire to consider removal of R&D conditional uses for animals, but also made a recommendation to consider removal of rabbits from the R&D permitted uses list. The subcommittee also requested that an email with linked articles, originally from Councilmember Cunningham to the City Manager and City Council, be provided to the Commission for reference. That is included as Attachment C.

DISCUSSION: The draft ordinance would amend certain provisions contained in BMC Chapter

17.18 - SP-CRO Sierra Point Commercial District, as outlined below. A redlined version of the proposed amendments is provided as Attachment B.

BMC Section 17.18.020 – Permitted Uses: The amendment would retain the provisions allowing for R&D by-right on insects, rodents, fish and amphibians. However, consistent with the Council subcommittee recommendation, use of rabbits would no longer be permitted. R&D on any other animals that are not specifically identified as permitted would now be prohibited, thus eliminating the conditional use category that presently exists. In addition to the change regarding use of rabbits, reptiles have been added as a permitted R&D use and the use of insects has been broadened to invertebrate animals. Invertebrates are those animals without a backbone and includes insects, spiders, worms, etc. The only vertebrate animals, those with a backbone, on the permitted for R&D list would be fish, amphibians, reptiles and rodents. 55 F.

Additionally, as an administrative clarification item, in reviewing this section staff noted that it also refers to cannabis R&D as permitted but is subject to BMC Chapter 17.33. Since that chapter is specific to cannabis performance standards, the cross reference was moved to BMC Section

17.18.045 – Performance Standards. It does not change the allowance of cannabis R&D as permitted in this district, since it’s already named as an R&D use in the definition, as noted above.

An important distinction should also be noted, that manufacturing of products is not permitted in this district whether related to cannabis or other medical products. That remains unchanged.

BMC Sections 17.18.030 – Conditional Uses and 17.18.035 – Conditional Uses – Research and Development: BMC Section 17.18.035 - Conditional Uses-Research and Development is proposed to be deleted. There are three types of R&D uses identified in that section: 1) Risk analysis-based referral to the City Council by the Planning Director 2) live animals not otherwise named under permitted or prohibited uses and 3) uses exceeding Risk Group 3 or Biosafety level 3 as defined by the National Institute of Health (NIH) or the Center for Disease Control.

As indicated above, with the proposed amendment, R&D using live animals would no longer be permitted by use permit. They would either be permitted by-right or prohibited, depending on the animal species.

The provision pertaining to R&D utilizing biological agents exceeding Risk Group 3 or Biosafety Level 3 would be moved to Section 17.18.030 - Conditional Uses and such R&D uses would still require a conditional use permit, but as with all other conditional uses, the Planning Commission would be the approving authority instead of City Council. As is the case with all Planning Commission decisions, the Commission’s decision on any use permit may be appealed to City Council, as provided in BMC Chapter 17.52 - Appeals.

The provisions for Planning Director referral of certain uses to the Council based on a risk analysis have been removed. The risk analysis would still be required, per BMC Section 17.18.045 - Performance Standards, to provide documentation prior to issuance of a building permit or business license. That documentation would then be used to identify whether the Risk Group 3 or Biosafety Level 3 threshold would be exceeded, at which point a proposed use would automatically be referred to the Planning Commission for a decision on a use permit application.

The intent of this proposed change is to provide for greater clarity in the regulations as to what does and does not require a use permit, while still requiring a use permit for higher risk or biosafety level uses. Such uses would still be considered by the Planning Commission relative to the standard use permit findings related to potential impacts to neighbors, as indicated above.

In brief, elimination of Section 17.18.035 and moving certain R&D uses indicated above to Section

17.18.030 would provide for consistent processing requirements for all use permits in this district.

BMC Section 17.18.045 – Performance Standards: The performance standards for this district have been updated, as indicated above. The risk analysis for R&D would be required prior to building permit or business license issuance. The business license reference has been added, since certain incoming R&D businesses may occupy a space that has already been built out to suit their R&D needs. A building permit is not always required, but a business license is. The cross reference to BMC Chapter 17.33 for cannabis businesses has been added to the performance standards, as noted above.

Mini pigs can be mixed or pure breeds, with common ancestry from Juliana, KuneKune, Pot-bellied and Göttingen mini pigs. Mini pigs reach maturity at five years old and have 20 years life expectancy. Like other pigs, mini pigs are incredibly smart and social animals. They are easy to train and can make great pets or therapy animals.

Subject: Planning Commission Meeting of 1/26/23
Dear Planning Commission,
Please deny the city councils Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4 provisions prohibiting animal testing and the elimination of conditional use permits.

Animal testing on Sierra Point has proven not to be detrimental to the health, safety, comfort and general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood, nor has it proven “...injurious or detrimental to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the city.” In fact, the opposite is true.

The establishment of animal testing by right on Sierra Point allowed for the long-stalled build-out of that area with Biotech and Pharmaceutical buildings. These new buildings are providing a number of public benefits, including revenue to the city, improvements to the Bay Trail, jobs, elimination of landfill blight, and the development of life-saving medicines for our community and the world.

Sierra Point is now a safer, more comfortable and healthier place to visit. The Biotech and Pharmaceutical buildings themselves improve the properties, the neighborhood, and the general welfare of the city.

The city council application to prohibit animal testing is yet another anti-science Brisbane initiative, like our rejection of environmental remediation. I believe this application is the first step in running the drug companies out of Brisbane, since these companies only started moving to Sierra Point after animal testing was granted by right.

Having worked in the Biotech and Pharmaceutical industry for over 40 years, the last 25 in research, I can tell you that the drug industry has an economic, ethical and scientific interest in replacing animal testing. I have used many in vitro and in silico tools, but the sad fact is that we still cannot accurately predict or anticipate all the effects of novel drugs on an animal, or the effects an animal will have on a novel drug.

Without in vivo research, thousands of Americans would die. Did you know that pig heart valves are transplanted into humans? And that they have a clear advantage over artificial heart valves? Please continue to allow Brisbane&rsquo;s already limited animal testing at Sierra Point, and reject the proposed in vivo testing prohibition and elimination of conditional uses. Keep the life-saving Biotech and 61 F.

Subject: Regarding the 1/26/2023 Planning Commission Meeting/ Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4 Hi Ingrid,
Could you please forward this to the Planning Commission:

Dear Planning Commissioners,
I’m here to request that you reject Zoning Text Amendment 2022-RZ-4. The FDA typically requires drugs for human use to be tested on one rodent species and a non-rodent species prior to human clinical trials. One example is the mRNA COVID 19 vaccines made by Pfizer and Moderna, which the city recommended that we all get. They were tested on rodents and non-human primates. Additionally heart drugs typically need to be tested on Pigs, as rodents aren’t a good human model. Limiting animal testing in Brisbane to only rodents, amphibians and insects is really limiting animal testing to just rodents, as I know of no human drug development that can use insects or amphibians.

While a recent U.S. law has eliminated the requirement that all drugs in development must undergo testing in animals prior to human clinical trials, the alternate testing methods, such as computer modeling are still quite limited, so won’t work for all drugs, nor has any drug been approved yet using these alternate methods. I can tell you that the Pharmaceutical Industry will gladly use these alternative methods if they can because it reduces the time and cost of drug development, compared to animal testing.

Drug Development Scientists are the ones that should be determining what type of testing is best suited to ensure a safe drug for human use, not the Brisbane City Council. There are Brisbane residents that have benefitted and will benefit from drugs tested on animals, other than rodents. I highly doubt most Brisbane residents would refuse a vaccine or life saving drug for themselves or their children if it was tested on a non-rodent species, so this zoning text amendment makes no sense, is NIMBY, and is just providing an illusion that Brisbane rejects animal testing. The Biotechnology companies will just go somewhere else to do their drug development and Brisbane residents will continue to take those life saving drugs and vaccines.

Subject: Animal Testing
Hi Ingrid I hope this gets to in time for tonight’s Planning Commission meeting, and thank you for all you do.

I’m writing this letter to say please do not further restrict animal testing in Brisbane. I like so many others have benefited from testing, after thirty years of type one diabetes I had eye issues leading to the loss of sight in one eye but saving the sight in the other, kidney failure, subsequent kidney pancreas transplant, two strokes, heart attack with bypass surgery, there’s been other things too but I’m trying to keep this short. The medicine and procedures would not have happened without animal testing. Computer models are a wonderful advancement in medicine but unfortunately they can’t replace all animal testing, while I completely understand the emotional aspect of animal testing it is my opinion we shouldn’t set back things because of our emotions.

Thank you
Brisbane resident

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: 02/16/2023
From: Clay Holstine, City Manager
Subject: First Amendment to Lease for Property at 25 Park Place, Brisbane, CA. Approval of this First Amendment is exempt from further review under the California Environmental Quality Act because it is not a “project”. Section 15378 (b), CEQA Guidelines.

Community Goal/Result
Fiscally prudent.

Recommendation:

Approve the First Amendment to the Standard Industrial/Commercial Single Tenant Lease-Gross between the Orsini Court Trust and the City of Brisbane for the property located at 25 Park Place, Brisbane, CA, extending the term of the Lease for an additional 15 years (through December 31, 2046) and setting forth the annual rent increases for the property at a rate of 3% annually, subject to a reset of the rent in 2034.

Background
In order to serve better the community and in anticipation of the need for additional space for staff due to the potential development of the Baylands, the City entered into a 10 year lease for the property at 25 Park Place. Attachment 1. The term of that lease will expire on December 31, 2031. The initial rent for the property was $25,000 per month and increases 3% annually. For 2023, the rent is $25,750 per month. In order to undertake the necessary tenant improvements for the property, it will be necessary to obtain financing and such financing requires a lease term of 25 years. City staff has discussed with the property owner (the Orsini Court Trust/Elena Court) extending the lease term through December 31, 2046, with annual rent increases of 3%. As discussed below, there is the possibility that the monthly rent could be “reset” to a higher amount in 2034. If the “reset” contingency is included, the property owner is willing to amend the lease as set forth in Attachment 2.

Discussion
Extending the term of the lease will permit the City to obtain the necessary funding to make the tenant improvements required to make the property more functional for City purposes. The monthly rent for the property will increase annually at a rate of 3%. Such annual rent increases are typical for long term commercial property in the Bay Area.

Given the length of the lease (25 years), the property owner is concerned that there may be years of high inflation, such as what has been experienced recently, that would erode the built in 3% annual increase. To address that concern, the lease amendment provides as follows: if the percentage change in the Consumers Price Index between 2022 (when the lease started) and the end of 2033, as applied to 67 G.
25 Park Place Page 2 of 2
the base rent in 2022 ($25,000) results in an amount greater than $21,288, the monthly rent would be “reset” to $42,397, rather than $35,644. The 3% annual increase would then be applied for the remainder of the lease. In order for the amount in question to be greater than $21,288, the percentage change in the CPI would need to average about 6% over the course of 12 years. Staff believes that is unlikely given that over the last 50 years, the percentage change to the CPI has averaged only 4.3%. If that should occur, however, the property owner has agreed that the reset rent would reflect only a 4.5% average percentage change in the CPI over course of the 12 years, rather than the higher percentage.

Accordingly, staff supports this contingency.

In addition, under the lease, the City is to pay any differences in the real property taxes (based on the FY 21/22 taxes) and the differences in the property owner’s insurance premium for the property (based on the premium in FY 21/22). Those differences for 2023 were small--$911 for the taxes and the $170 for the insurance premium.

Environmental Review
Approval of this amendment to the lease for the property at 25 Park Place is not subject to further review under the California Environmental Quality Act as it is an administrative activity of the City that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment and hence, not a “project”.

CEQA Guidelines, Section 15378 (b)(5).

Fiscal Impact
The First Amendment commits the City to extending the lease for the property at 25 Park Place for an additional 15 years beyond December 31, 2031 and there will be annual rent increases associated with such extension. For example, the monthly rent beginning in January 2032 will be $33,598 and, unless the rent has been reset in 2034, the monthly rent beginning in January 2046 (the last year of the lease) will be $50,820. Council will need to budget funds for the rent annually. There will also be increases, over time, as to the differences in the property taxes and insurance premiums but staff anticipates these will remain relatively small.
