NEW BUSINESS
F. Study Session- 70 Old County Road Planning Program
(Staff recommends that the Council provide direction to staff and consultants regarding a preferred development concept scenario to be studied further.)
With conclusion of the initial community engagement phase, consultants from Good City Company reported that they completed a high-level feasibility analysis of the top three preferred vision concepts. The report concludes the following:
• The affordable or mixed-income, mixed-use residential concept represents the most viable nearterm path for redevelopment of the 70 Old County Road property, provided the City contributes land and potentially gap financing. • The commercial/retail scenario is likely to succeed only if paired with a strong anchor tenant that is identified in advance, or incorporated into a broader, multi-parcel redevelopment plan. • The community center scenario would impose high public costs with limited utilization and is not recommended as a standalone use.

The next steps are for the Council to identify a preferred development concept for the property. 9 C.

After Council questions with staff and consultants, Linda Salmon commented that the City should prioritize safety it’s not feasible to build and the area should be returned to a wetlands park.

Michael Barnes this feasibility concepts exceeds 40 units per acre and delayed Council action have already cost the City a lot of money.

Chris Florkowski commented that members of the community must see ourselves as citizens not consumers. This is an opportunity for communication.

Michele Samon is concerned about flooding safety and sea level rise. She added that we need to start thinking outside of the box and value the beautiful view of the lagoon and mountain.

Paul Bouscal commented that the City should consider land transfers so that it can satisfy low-income housing and senior housing.

After a brief break and Council discussion, staff was directed to work with Good Cities and the Parkside 2 Ad Hoc Subcommittee on what scope of work is possible with the $82,000 remaining in the contract with Good Cities.

G. Discuss and Provide Direction on Reestablishing a Sister City Relationship with Brisbane, Australia Assistant City Manager Fernandez reported that City records show a formal partnership between the City of Brisbane, CA and Brisbane, Australia dating back as far as 1975 when the cities were paired as Sister Cities through Sister Cities International (SCI) through 2006.

After Council questions, Linda Salmon reported that she remembered the partnership to be fantastic and wonderful.

Council desired to reestablish a formal relationship with the City of Brisbane, Australia, and directed staff to send Mayor Lentz’ letter to Lord Mayor Schrinner, expressing our interest in re-establishing a sister city relationship between the two cities. Staff was also directed to work to reestablish the relationship through Sister Cities International, which includes a Planning Process, a Research Phase, Development of a Partnership Agreement, a Signing Ceremony, and Implementation/Evaluation.

J. Accept Development Impact Fee Annual Report Fiscal Year 2025 32 Annual Report of Development Impact Fees for FYE June 30, 2025 Page 1 of 3

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 11, 2025
From: Carolina Yuen, Finance Director
Subject: Acceptance of Annual Report of Development Impact Fees for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025
Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council accept the Annual Report of Development Impact Fees for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025.

Background
The California Government Code Section 66006, a subsection of the Mitigation Fee Act, requires local agencies with Development Impact Fees (DIF) to submit a report on the collection and use of these fees for public review within 180 days after the end of each fiscal year. This annual report must be reviewed and accepted by the City Council at a regularly scheduled public meeting. The annual review must include the following:

1. A brief description of the type of fee in the fund;

2. The amount of the fee;

3. The beginning and ending balance of the account or fund for the fiscal year;

4. The amount of the fees collected and any interest earned;

5. An identification of each public improvement on which fees were expended and the amount of the expenditures on each improvement, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with fees;

6. An identification of an approximate date by which the construction of the public improvement will commence, if the local agency determines that sufficient funds have been collected to complete the financing on an incomplete public improvement;

7. A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the account or fund, including the public improvement on which the transferred fees will be expended; and

8. The amount of unexpended revenues refunded.

Annual Report of Development Impact Fees for FYE June 30, 2025 Page 2 of 3 In 2019, the City approved the Design Permit application submitted by Healthpeak for its project in Sierra Point. As a condition of approval, the developer was to pay $1.5 million towards improvements for park planning at Sierra Point. The City received the funds in August 2020. These funds are in the Park Development Fund, are segregated from the General Fund, will be segregated from other DIF when and if those DIF are imposed and collected by the City and may only be used for the purposes for which the fee was imposed. In addition to the $1.5 million, there are other funds in the Park Development Fund (earmarked for the Parcel R project), but those funds were collected pursuant to a development agreement and under the Mitigation Fee Act, those funds are not subject to the Act. Moreover, interest earned on this Fund is also deposited into the Fund. The fees must be used within five years of their collection but that time limit may be extended if justified. Although project approvals occurred in 2019, the use time frame began when the funds were actually received by the City in 2020. If these funds are not utilized within the 5-year timeframe, the City will be responsible for justifying an extension and identifying how the funds will be allocated within a reasonable time period. Otherwise, the funds must be returned to the developer.

In 2022, the City Council awarded a contract to Conger Moss Guillard (CMG) in the amount of $199,758 for master planning services for Sierra Point Open Space and Parks. To date, the City has compensated CMG $118,932 for services rendered. Twenty five percent (25%) of the cost related to the CMG contract has been allocated to the Parcel R project, and the remaining 75% ($89,199) has been allocated to general park improvements at Sierra Point and charged against the DIF collected from Healthpeak.

In 2024, the City awarded a contract to Erler & Kalinowski (EKI) in the amount of $36,700 and to Anchor QEA in the amount of $36,500 for various Sea Level Rise assessments impacting the Sierra Point Open Space and Parks. To date, the City has compensated EKI $36,677 and Anchor QEA $20,442 for services rendered. One hundred percent (100%) of the cost related to these contracts have been allocated to the general park improvements at Sierra Point and charged against the DIF collected from Healthpeak.

Discussion and Fee Reporting Summary
Description and Amount – In 2019, the City approved the Design Permit application submitted by Healthpeak and imposed a $1.5 million fee towards improvements for park planning at Sierra Point as a condition of approval. The City received the funds in August 2020. These funds have been deposited into the Park Development Fund. These Funds may be used for park planning purposes in Sierra Point and a portion of the fees have most recently have been expended to cover consulting costs related to the preparation of the Sierra Point Open Space and Park Master Plan.

Financial Information – For Fiscal Year 2024-25, the beginning balance of the Park Development Fund (as to that portion that is to be reported under the Mitigation Fee Act) was $1,483,155. During the fiscal year, no additional fees were collected. The funds gained $64,088 in investment income. Expenditures of $34,354 were incurred for eligible park planning projects and sea level rise study. The ending balance in the relevant portion of the Park Development Fund as of June 30, 2025, was $1,512,889. 34 J.

O. Adopt a Resolution Approving Contract Amendment No. 2 with Anchor QEA, LLC in the amount of $77,500 for 2026 Brisbane Marina Maintenance Dredging 38 Anchor QEA Amendment No. 2

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 11, 2025
From: Jeremy Dennis, City Manager & Maz Bozorginia, Director of Public Works
Subject: Contract Amendment No. 2 with Anchor QEA, LLC for 2026 Brisbane Marina Maintenance Dredging
Recommendation
Adopt the attached resolution approving Contract Amendment No. 2 with Anchor QEA, LLC in the amount of $77,500 for permitting support and preparation of 90% and 100% dredge design documents for the Brisbane Marina 2026 Maintenance Dredging Project and authorizing the City Manager to execute the amendment.

Background
In August 2025, the City executed a professional services agreement with Anchor QEA for technical support associated with the upcoming 2026 maintenance dredging of the Brisbane Marina. The scope included sediment characterization, sampling and analysis, and preparation of 60% dredge design documents. The agreement amount was $200,000, issued under Purchase Order PO2600462 and supported by Anchor QEA’s August 11, 2025, proposal.

During early implementation, staff authorized supplemental sediment testing in the amount of $24,000 to evaluate potential beneficial reuse of dredged material. This work, approved within existing administrative authority, expanded the City’s disposal options for the upcoming dredging episode.

Sediment characterization and preliminary design are now substantially complete. Anchor QEA has submitted a proposal dated October 22, 2025, for $77,500 to complete permitting, develop 90% and 100% design documents, and provide project management support. Because this amendment will cause the cumulative contract total to exceed the City Manager’s approval authority, Council action is required.

Discussion
Sedimentation within the Marina has gradually reduced available depth in several areas, creating operational challenges for some vessels—particularly during lower tides—and reinforcing the need for periodic dredging to maintain safe and reliable access. Because the last dredging episode occurred in 2015, the 2026 effort will help reestablish baseline conditions and 39 O.

Anchor QEA Amendment No. 2
improve the City’s understanding of how sedimentation patterns are evolving, including under anticipated sea level rise.

Amendment No. 2 includes the remaining tasks needed to complete the design and permitting phase of the project:
• Task 3 – Permitting: Preparation and submittal of the consolidated DMMO permit application and coordination with federal and state agencies through permit issuance. • Task 4 – Final Design: Completion of 90% and 100% dredge design documents, including updated drawings, specifications, a bid form, and an opinion of probable construction cost.
• Task 5 – Project Management: Ongoing coordination, meetings, schedule tracking, and general oversight through completion of design and permitting.

Completing these tasks now will secure multi-year regulatory permits and final design documents, allowing the City to move forward when construction funding is identified. The consultant has confirmed that sediment characterization results remain valid for approximately three years, and the permits being sought will also be valid for multiple years, giving the City flexibility to defer construction if needed. Any updates required due to delay—such as a new bathymetric survey or revised dredge quantities—would represent a relatively minor cost.

Anchor QEA’s rough order-of-magnitude construction estimate ranges from $6.1–$6.3 million, with higher-end scenarios approaching $8.9 million depending on mobilization, disposal costs, and market conditions. Because no funding for the construction phase has been programmed, staff is evaluating long-term funding options. These include potential adjustments to Marina rates, the feasibility of issuing bonds or other financing tools, phasing the project to distribute costs over time, and identifying any applicable grant opportunities—even though most state boating programs do not fund dredging and often require matching funds.

As part of this planning effort, staff is working with the Finance Department to confirm the current balance of the Marina Enterprise Fund. A detailed fund balance analysis will be brought to Council once updated figures are available and will directly inform decisions about ratesetting, financing mechanisms, and project phasing.

Staff is also considering whether alternative dredging strategies may better serve the City in the long term. Smaller scale but more frequent dredging cycles may improve cost predictability, reduce operational disruptions, and better align with shifting sedimentation patterns and sea level rise. The 2026 episode will provide important insights to guide future maintenance planning.

While the current Marina Enterprise Fund budget includes funding for design and permitting, no funding has been identified for construction. Staff will return to the City Council with a 40 O.

Anchor QEA Amendment No. 2
comprehensive financial strategy before requesting any action related to bidding or awarding construction.

Approval of Amendment No. 2 does not obligate the City to proceed with construction. Rather, it positions the City with valid permits, updated design documents, and reliable technical information while providing time to develop a responsible, long-range approach to planning and funding the dredging effort.

Fiscal Impact
Approval of Amendment No. 2 will increase the total contract amount with Anchor QEA as follows:
• $200,000 – Original Agreement
• $24,000 – Supplemental staff-authorized sediment testing • $77,500 – Proposed Amendment No. 2
Total Contract Value: $301,500
Funds for Amendment No. 2 are available in the Marina Enterprise Fund (GL 550-7009-000- 52030). There is no General Fund impact.

While funding for the design and permitting phases was included in the current budget, no funding has been identified for the construction phase. Estimated construction costs of $6.1– $6.3 million, with potential higher-end scenarios nearing $8.9 million, exceed currently available resources. The current Marina Enterprise Fund balance will be a key factor in determining the City’s ability to fund dredging, and staff will return to Council with updated fund balance information and potential financing options—including rate adjustments, bonding capacity, grant opportunities, phasing strategies, and alternative dredging approaches prior to any solicitation of bids for the construction.

Re: Scope of Work and Cost Proposal
Brisbane Marina Maintenance Dredging Support, 2026 Episode - revised Dear Mr. Breault,
Anchor QEA is pleased to submit this revised scope of work and cost proposal to support the City of Brisbane’s (City’s) upcoming maintenance dredging needs at Brisbane Marina. We understand that the City seeks to once again dredge the Brisbane Marina and entrance channel to a depth of -8 feet mean lower low water, plus 2 feet of allowable overdepth consistent with the last dredging episode in 2015. The total volume of material estimated to be dredged is estimated at 225,000 cubic yards based on the March 2025 bathymetric survey. Given the anticipated dredging volume and the need to dredge within the established work window, we anticipate that dredging activities would be completed in the 2026 work window between June and November.

This first scope of work covers preliminary design (60%) and sediment sampling.

Proposed Scope of Work
Task 1: Sediment Characterization and Dredged Material Management Office Coordination
Based on the preliminary dredge volume estimate of 225,000 cubic yards, the marina and entrance channel will be divided into four dredge units for sampling and analysis activities. Consistent with the last dredging episode in 2015, proposed dredge material will be evaluated for in-Bay disposal at the Alcatraz Island (SF-11) disposal site. The following subtasks summarize the steps necessary to obtain a suitability determination from the DMMO.
44 O.

August 11, 2025

Task 1.1: Sampling and Analysis Plan
Anchor QEA will prepare a Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP) for sample collection and analytical testing of sediments from Brisbane Marina and entrance channel. The SAP will be prepared in accordance with the following:
• Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Discharge in Waters of the U.S. – Inland Testing Manual (ITM)
• PN 01-01: Guidelines for Implementing the Inland Testing Manual in the San Francisco Bay Region
The SAP will detail the sampling and analysis methods followed during field sample collection and laboratory analyses to determine sediment suitability for in-Bay disposal at SF-11. An electronic draft SAP will be submitted to the City for review. One round of review with minimal revisions is anticipated.

The final SAP will be distributed to DMMO agencies and the City. Prior to sampling, Anchor QEA will present the project and seek approval of the SAP by the DMMO at a DMMO meeting.

As part of Task 1.1, Anchor QEA will also develop a Health and Safety Plan that will provide background information, emergency phone numbers, the route to the nearest hospital, potential chemicals of concern, personal protective equipment requirements, key personnel responsibilities, and health and safety procedures.

Subtask 1.2: Sample Collection and Laboratory Analysis
Sediment cores will be collected at approximately 16 stations using a vibracore by Anchor QEA and our subcontractor Leviathan Environmental Services. It is anticipated that two cores will be required at each station to collect enough sediment for testing. Reference sediment would be collected from the SF-11 reference site by our subcontractor Brezina and Associates.

Individual core and Z-layer samples will be archived from each station. Depending on composite sample results, limited chemical analysis of individual core or Z-layer samples may be required by the DMMO. An individual core sample would only be analyzed if there is a need to refine the dredge unit based on elevated chemistry. A Z-layer sample would only be analyzed to characterize the newly exposed surface layer if the dredged material exhibited elevated chemical concentrations. Additional analysis of individual core and Z-layer samples is not included in this cost estimate.

In accordance with DMMO guidelines, four composite samples will be submitted for chemical analysis and biological testing to determine suitability for disposal at SF-11. Sediment chemistry will include total solids, total organic carbon, grain size, metals, organotins, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, organochlorine pesticides, and polychlorinated biphenyls. Based on recent sediment characterization studies, it is also anticipated that DMMO will request analysis of dioxin/furans because dioxin/furans have not been tested at this site before. This cost estimate also includes analysis of dioxin/furans. Biological testing for in-Bay disposal will include one water column and two 45 O.

August 11, 2025

benthic toxicity tests. During the benthic toxicity testing, reference sediment will be tested concurrently with composite samples for comparative purposes.

Biological testing and chemical analysis would be performed by our subcontracted laboratories, Pacific EcoRisk, Inc., and Physis Environmental Laboratories, Inc., respectively. Anchor QEA will perform data validation to ensure laboratory analyses meet the project data quality objectives.

Subtask 1.3: Sampling and Analysis Report
Anchor QEA will produce a Sampling and Analysis Report (SAR) detailing results of testing, final sampling locations, any deviations from the SAP, and conclusions regarding the suitability of dredged material placement at SF-11. The SAR will be prepared in accordance with the ITM and PN-01-01 and DMMO guidelines. An electronic draft SAR will be submitted to the City for review.

One review round with minimal revisions is anticipated. The final SAR will be distributed to DMMO agencies and the City. Final concurrence on dredged material suitability will be requested at a DMMO meeting.

Assumptions
Assumptions for Task 2 are as follows:
• No new survey is required (March 2025 survey is acceptable to DMMO). • Based on the estimated volume of 225,000 cubic yards, sediment cores will be collected at approximately 16 stations within four dredge units. Changes to this volume may impact the number of dredge units, sampling locations, and costs.
• Anchor QEA will spend 4 days in the field collecting and processing sediment cores, plus mobilization and demobilization. DMMO requests for additional sampling locations or dredge units may affect the duration of field activities and costs. • Four composite samples will be submitted for physical, chemical, and biological testing. • One reference sample will be submitted for benthic toxicity testing. • Bioaccumulation testing will not be required. If bioaccumulation triggers are exceeded, additional testing and tissue analysis will be required resulting in additional costs. • The complete analyte list will be subject to DMMO approval. • Analysis of individual cores and Z-layer samples will not be required. • Anchor QEA will attend one DMMO meeting to discuss the SAP and one DMMO meeting to discuss the SAR.

Task 2: Preliminary Dredge Design Documents
Anchor QEA will prepare draft 60% dredge design documents, including drawings, technical specifications, an opinion of probable costs, and a bid form for the dredging work. The 2015 dredge episode design will be used as a basis of the design. Design development will include evaluating dredging production rates, construction timelines, and potential dredging phasing options. The 46 O.

August 11, 2025

development of these documents will occur concurrently with the permitting and sediment investigation processes to the extent feasible.

The design drawings will depict site features necessary to inform a dredging contractor of existing site conditions, including site bathymetry; existing shorelines, docks, marine features, and structures; site mooring areas and access restrictions (if any); required dredge template (i.e., extents and limits of dredging); dredging side slopes; allowable overdepth limits; and typical cross sections. The CAD files that Anchor QEA developed for the previous dredging episode will be the initial starting point and reduce the time needed to create the dredge prism. If there has been a change to any infrastructure (new structures or demolitions), we will request the as-builts from the City.

The technical specifications will include detailed requirements for dredging and disposal of material at an in-Bay disposal location, in compliance with all permit conditions and environmental restrictions known at the time of preparation. Key input from the previous dredging episode specifications will be used to inform the technical specifications. If there are new engineering requirements by the City or updates to the City’s technical specifications packages, we ask that the City provide those as early in the design process as possible (within 2 weeks after the kick-off meeting). A bid form will be included in the technical specifications package, which will contain estimates of payable dredge quantities, potentially subdivided according to different dredging areas.

The design drawings and technical specifications will be prepared in a manner to be incorporated into a standard bid package provided by the City, which is anticipated to include the City’s Standard Agreement, Contract Terms (including bonding requirements, payment provisions, and insurance requirements), and General Conditions. We have assumed that contract documents, aside from our drawings and technical specifications, will be provided by the City, and the City will create the complete contract package, consistent with previous construction projects conducted by the City.

We will submit a draft (60%) set of design documents to the City for review and discussion, followed by a draft 90% set for City review, followed by a final (100%) set signed and stamped for bid solicitation (anticipated to be approved under a subsequent scope of work). We assume all deliverables will be submitted to the City in electronic format only.

Assumptions
Assumptions for Task 2 are as follows:
• Upland and shoreline topographic survey information, including location and geometry of adjacent structures, and the presence and location of utilities, is assumed to be the same as per the prior episode.
• The design depths will not exceed the original design depths alongside structures and guide piles at the site. We have therefore assumed it will not be necessary to analyze the stability of existing offshore and nearshore structures.
47 O.

August 11, 2025

Page 5 ends

• Sediment is anticipated to be disposed of at an in-Bay disposal location (SF-10 or SF-11) rather than at an upland landfill facility.
• The drawing package will be comprised of nine sheets, similar to the 2015 dredge drawings. • Anchor QEA will attend one site visit with the City, as well as up to two meetings (virtual or in person, as appropriate) with the City during the design process. • Any City-requested changes to the draft 90% design documents will be minor in nature, such as grammar correction or formatting. No material changes to the project will be incorporated beyond this phase.
• Bid solicitation and construction management is not included in this scope.

Schedule
We anticipate completing the sampling and 60% design documents within six months of notice to proceed. Permitting and final design (90%, 100%) should be initiated no later than upon approval of the Sampling and Analysis report to maintain schedule for construction in 2026. A separate scope of work and cost estimate for these tasks will be submitted.

Proposed Staff
With the exception of the laboratory analyses and sediment sample vessel collection, all work required to fulfill this scope of work will be completed by Anchor QEA staff, predominately located in our San Francisco, California, office. Dr. Joshua Burnam will be Anchor QEA’s Principal-in-Charge and overall project manager. He will be supported by Katie Chamberlin and Marine Vie, who will be our local point of contact and agency liaison for the regulatory permitting task, respectively; Chis Osuch, who will manage sediment characterization efforts; and Megan Collins, PE, and Amy Williams, PE, who will develop the engineering deliverables. Other Anchor QEA staff will provide oversight and guidance as required.

Estimated Costs
The total cost for completing Tasks 1 and 2 is $200,000, which is based on a time-and-materials, notto-exceed basis. Our current rates are included as Attachment 1.

Re: Scope of Work and Cost Proposal - Continuing
Brisbane Marina Maintenance Dredging Support, 2026 Episode Dear Mr. Bozorginia,
Anchor QEA is pleased to submit this continuing scope of work and cost proposal to support the City of Brisbane’s (City’s) upcoming maintenance dredging needs at Brisbane Marina. As discussed previously and noted in prior scopes, this scope letter includes the remaining necessary tasks and budgets to be prepared for construction in 2026.

This first scope of work covers permitting and sediment sampling. Task numbering is sequential from our prior scope.

Proposed Scope of Work
Task 3: Permitting
Anchor QEA will prepare and submit the Dredged Material Management Office (DMMO) Consolidated Dredging Permit application to obtain permits covering the City’s proposed dredging work. The City’s prior permits have expired since the last episode, but we will make use of those materials to apply for renewed permits to the extent feasible.

The following permits will be obtained for the proposed dredging work:
• 10-year permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
• Endangered Species Act Section 7 concurrence letters from the National Marine Fisheries Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
• 10-year permit from the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission • Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board
• Notification only to the California State Lands Commission Attachment 3
55 O.

October 22, 2025

To obtain the required state and federal permits and approvals, Anchor QEA will prepare the following documents:
• Permit application forms
• A memorandum containing supplemental information that will be needed for permit issuance but cannot easily fit into the agency form templates
To streamline the project, the permitting process will be conducted parallel to the sediment characterization effort (in progress). Anchor QEA will prepare draft versions of these documents for review by the City. After addressing comments, we will prepare final versions of each document and submit them to the respective agencies for review and processing. After submitting applications, Anchor QEA will remain in close contact with the regulatory agencies issuing permits or approvals for the project. We will respond to agency comments, inquire regularly for status updates, and coordinate with agency points of contact as needed throughout the process of the issuance of permits. Anchor QEA will review all issued permits to determine if the permit conditions are feasible or if they prompt further discussions from the agencies.

Assumptions
Assumptions for Task 3 are as follows:
• All dredging is maintenance dredging, not new work.
• Dredging will occur within the established window of June 1 through November 30. • The project will qualify for the Small Dredger Programmatic Alternatives Analysis and will not require preparation of an Integrated Alternatives Analysis. • The DMMO application will be completed to state and federal standards. Anchor QEA will respond to agency comments on the DMMO application.
• Anchor QEA will coordinate and lead a virtual pre-application meeting. • Anchor QEA will develop draft and final versions of the application forms and supplement.

Anchor QEA will address one round of comments from the City on these documents. • Anchor QEA will attend up to two virtual meetings with the regulatory agencies, if required. • A California State Lands Commission dredging lease will not be required (confirmed during the previous 2015 dredging episode).
• No cultural resources memorandum will be provided for this effort; because the project is proposing maintenance dredging in an area that was previously dredged, there is no potential to encounter archeological and/or cultural resources.
• The Dredge Operations Plan for the 2026 dredging episode will be completed by the contractor, as specified in Task 3.
• The City will prepare a California Environmental Quality Act notice of exemption (similar to the previous 2015 dredging episode).
56 O.

• Preparation of a biological assessment, biological surveys, and fieldwork is excluded from this scope of work.
• An Incidental Take Permit (ITP) from California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) will not be required because the project will not result in the “take” of state-listed special status species. By working within the established window, constraining the project to previously dredged areas, and minimizing the upland footprint of the project through using an established placement site, an ITP should be avoidable; however, if CDFW determines that the project requires an ITP, Anchor QEA would require additional funds to perform the additional work. • The City will provide proof of legal interest for the permit applications. • The City will be responsible for all permit fees.

Task 4: Dredge Design Documents – 90 and 100%
Anchor QEA will prepare draft 90%, and final 100% dredge design documents, including drawings, technical specifications, an opinion of probable costs, and a bid form for the dredging work. The 2015 dredge episode design will be used as a basis of the design. Design development will include evaluating dredging production rates, construction timelines, and potential dredging phasing options. The development of these documents will occur concurrently with the permitting and sediment investigation processes to the extent feasible.

The design drawings will depict site features necessary to inform a dredging contractor of existing site conditions, including site bathymetry; existing shorelines, docks, marine features, and structures; site mooring areas and access restrictions (if any); required dredge template (i.e., extents and limits of dredging); dredging side slopes; allowable overdepth limits; and typical cross sections. The CAD files that Anchor QEA developed for the previous dredging episode will be the initial starting point and reduce the time needed to create the dredge prism. If there has been a change to any infrastructure (new structures or demolitions), we will request the as-builts from the City.

The technical specifications will include detailed requirements for dredging and disposal of material at an in-Bay disposal location, in compliance with all permit conditions and environmental restrictions known at the time of preparation. Key input from the previous dredging episode specifications will be used to inform the technical specifications. If there are new engineering requirements by the City or updates to the City’s technical specifications packages, we ask that the City provide those as early in the design process as possible (within 2 weeks after the kick-off meeting). A bid form will be included in the technical specifications package, which will contain estimates of payable dredge quantities, potentially subdivided according to different dredging areas.

The design drawings and technical specifications will be prepared in a manner to be incorporated into a standard bid package provided by the City, which is anticipated to include the City’s Standard Agreement, Contract Terms (including bonding requirements, payment provisions, and insurance requirements), and General Conditions. We have assumed that contract documents, aside from our 57 O.

October 22, 2025

Page 4 ends

drawings and technical specifications, will be provided by the City, and the City will create the complete contract package, consistent with previous construction projects conducted by the City.

We assume all deliverables will be submitted to the City in electronic format only.

Assumptions
Assumptions for Task 4 are as follows:
• Upland and shoreline topographic survey information, including location and geometry of adjacent structures, and the presence and location of utilities, is assumed to be the same as per the prior episode.
• The design depths will not exceed the original design depths alongside structures and guide piles at the site. We have therefore assumed it will not be necessary to analyze the stability of existing offshore and nearshore structures.
• Sediment is anticipated to be disposed of at an in-Bay disposal location (SF-10 or SF-11) rather than at an upland landfill facility.
• The drawing package will be comprised of nine sheets, similar to the 2015 dredge drawings. • Anchor QEA will attend one site visit with the City, as well as up to two meetings (virtual or in person, as appropriate) with the City during the design process. • Any City-requested changes to the draft 90% design documents will be minor in nature, such as grammar correction or formatting. No material changes to the project will be incorporated beyond this phase.
• Bid solicitation and construction management is not included in this scope.

Task 5: Project Management
This task includes an allowance for overall management of the project, including regular meetings, schedule updates, and invoicing for the project manager.

Future Tasks
This scope of work will be considered complete when our final (100%) design documents have been completed and submitted to the City. However, once the design plans have been prepared, Anchor QEA can also support the City in bidding and construction management to guide the project per the technical specifications and regulatory permits. Successful construction projects are attributable, in part, to effective and thorough oversight and management of the contractor’s work, and Anchor QEA’s experience in this regard could be a valuable addition to this project. For example, we commonly participate in and lead pre-bid site visits, provide input to the bid review process, review contractor pre-construction submittals, participate (in person or by phone) in selected construction meetings, and review contractor progress and post-dredge survey pay requests. A separate scope of work and cost estimate for these tasks will be prepared once our current tasks are completed.

Maziar, Andrew – wanted to forward along an updated ROM construction cost estimate. This is based on our current view of the market, recent similar projects/bids we are aware of, and of course our knowledge of the last episode at the marina. As you can see from the table below, our rough estimate at this time is about $6.1-$6.3M for construction cost for all areas, with one area being optional as before.   We would have separate fees for construction oversight if you requested that of us (we did that last time). I wanted to provide this now so you can review and be informed.

If we allow dredgers to work outside the window by going to upland disposal sites, which we will present as an optional item to them, it’s possible some cost savings could be achieved, but we can’t specify that at this time. We are allowing for that option with our testing program. In case you are curious, the permits will be good for multiple years (5-10 depending on the permit) and the sediment results are usually good for 3 years.

Please let us know if you want to discuss this.

Thanks,
Josh

P. Provide General Guidance on Plaque Honoring David Schooley 73 Plaque Honoring David Schooley

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: December 11, 2025
From: Jeremy Dennis, City Manager & Maz Bozorginia, Director of Public Works
Subject: Plaque Honoring David Schooley
Recommendation
Receive this informational report and provide general guidance on the concept of installing a commemorative bronze plaque honoring David Schooley, including input on proposed locations and next steps. Following Council’s direction, staff will bring the project to the Parks and Recreation Commission for design development and approval.

Background
David Schooley has been a leading advocate for the protection and stewardship of San Bruno Mountain for more than fifty years. His conservation work, educational outreach, and collaboration with local jurisdictions have played a central role in preserving the mountain’s ecological resources and ensuring long-term public access.

City leadership has expressed interest in commemorating Mr. Schooley’s contributions. Staff is recommending a plaque be placed at an appropriate location that reflects Mr. Schooley’s commitment to the Mountain.

Discussion
The City Manager has identified several possible access points into the San Bruno Mountain trail network, such as the connections near Paul and Margaret Avenues, as potential locations for a single commemorative plaque. These neighborhood access points offer contextual relevance for trail users and a strong connection to the mountain that Mr. Schooley dedicated decades to protecting. Staff are proposing to mount the plaque on a natural boulder at the selected site to ensure that the installation blends with the surrounding environment. Should Council prefer another location with broader public visibility or a different connection to the mountain, staff can evaluate additional options.

The plaque would include a portrait relief and a brief statement honoring his legacy. This report provides preliminary information for Council’s consideration before the project moves to the Parks and Recreation Commission for design review.

To gather initial cost information, staff contacted a vendor previously used by the City. The preliminary concept includes a custom portrait relief, approximately 100 words of text, and a working plaque dimension of 14" x 20", although the final size may need to increase depending on the selected imagery and narrative. Since the portrait relief is entirely custom and the 74 P.

Plaque Honoring David Schooley
artwork determines the casting size, the vendor cannot provide a firm quote until final text and artwork are submitted. As a point of reference, a similar bronze casting recently completed by the same vendor for the San Francisco Fire Department cost $2,800, plus tax and freight.

If Council provides general direction to proceed, staff will bring the project to the Parks and Recreation Commission for design development. The Commission would review and refine the plaque language, confirm the preferred location, and select final design elements. Once these components are finalized, staff will submit the artwork and text to the fabricator for a definitive cost estimate and proceed with fabrication and installation.

Fiscal Impact
Based on vendor input and staff estimates:
• Plaque fabrication is anticipated at approximately $3,000; • City staff labor and installation materials are estimated at approximately $2,000; • A high range estimate of up to $10,000 accounts for a larger plaque size or expanded artwork requirements.

All expected costs fall within staff’s purchasing authority, and current budgets can support such an effort.

Attachments
None.
