City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Proclamation Declaring the Week of May 17 - 23, 2026, National Public Works Week (Resolution/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the Mayor proclaim the week of May 17-23, 2026, as National Public Works Week for the City of Campbell.

BACKGROUND
In 1960, the American Public Works Association (APWA) instituted a public education campaign to draw attention to the importance of Public Works in the community. Public Works professionals are charged with critical responsibilities in connection with the planning, design, construction, maintenance and operation of numerous public works projects, programs, and facilities. These accomplishments are important in building and maintaining strong communities and are particularly noteworthy when their implementation succeeds despite limited availability of labor and/or financial resources.

DISCUSSION
National Public Works Week is observed each May to raise the public’s awareness of Public Works issues and activities; and to recognize the contributions made by Public Works professionals who are dedicated to improving the quality of life and building communities for current and future generations.

This year marks the 66th Annual National Public Works Week and the theme for 2026 is “Rooted in Service, Powered by Community.” This year’s theme recognizes the deep commitment to service that Public Works professionals bring to our communities. These contributions promote a safe, vibrant environment which empowers residents to thrive and find fulfillment in their surroundings. Whether the work is visible to the community or behind the scenes, Public Works puts service at the forefront for the community. Their efforts strengthen the bond between service and community.

Our Public Works staff continues to work diligently to keep the City’s streets, parks, and other public facilities in a safe and well-maintained condition to maintain a sense of civic pride and positive morale. Additionally, staff continues to design, manage, and implement projects that are of value to the community, support a more sustainable environment, and improve the overall quality of life in Campbell.

PROCLAMATION
OF THE

MAYOR OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL
WHEREAS, in 1960 the American Public Works Association instituted a public education campaign to draw attention to the importance of Public Works in the community life; and WHEREAS, Public Works professionals focus on services that are of vital importance for creating sustainable and resilient communities that improve the quality of life for the City; and WHEREAS, these infrastructure, facility, and service efforts could not be possible without the dedication of Public Works professionals – including engineers, managers and employees at all levels – in both government and the private sector – who all have a role in maintaining, rebuilding, improving and protecting our nation’s transportation services, water and solid waste systems, public buildings, and facilities essential for our residents; and WHEREAS, the quality and effectiveness behind the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of these operations are dependent upon the dedication and skills of Public Works officials; and

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Proclamation Declaring May 17 – 24, 2026 as Hepatitis Awareness Week in the City of Campbell
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the Mayor proclaim May 17 - 24, 2026 as Hepatitis B Awareness Week in the City of Campbell.

BACKGROUND
Hepatitis Awareness Month has been observed every May in the United States since 2001. TeamHBV San Jose is a non-profit youth outreach branch of the Stanford Asian Liver Center and is comprised of 26 students from Archbishop Mitty High School in San Jose, California.

DISCUSSION
TeamHBV San Jose aims to raise awareness about hepatitis B and liver cancer and to educate the community on this pressing public health issue. Designating the week of May 17th to May 24th, 2026, as a period of focused HBV awareness, aligns with Hepatitis Testing Day on May 19th and Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month. This initiative aims to elevate the issue among city leadership and foster greater recognition of the impact of hepatitis B on our communities.

Hepatitis B (HBV) is a serious viral infection that affects the liver and is responsible for up to 80% of liver cancer cases. Alarmingly, 1 in 10 Asian and Pacific Islanders are chronically infected with HBV, and without proper monitoring or treatment, 25% of those individuals will die from liver cancer or liver failure. Globally, HBV-related complications result in approximately 1 million deaths each year. Many infected individuals are unaware of their condition, as symptoms often do not appear until the disease has progressed.

Fortunately, HBV can be detected through a simple blood test, and a safe, effective vaccine is available to prevent infection.

TeamHBV San Jose has provided health education to over 500 individuals through outreach efforts at public libraries, street fairs, and fundraising events. Using interactive tools such as trivia games, we have successfully engaged community members, identified those at risk, and encouraged them to consult healthcare professionals.

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the Mayor proclaim the Month of May 2026 as Affordable Housing Month in the City of Campbell.

BACKGROUND
Affordable housing remains a fundamental pillar of a thriving democracy and is integral to the American Dream. Communities flourish when families have access to safe, stable, and affordable homes.

The affordable housing community, including SV@Home, in collaboration with the City of Campbell, concentrates efforts on the production, protection, and preservation of affordable housing options for bay area residents.

May is recognized as Affordable Housing Month in Silicon Valley—a time dedicated to elevating awareness and action around housing. Throughout the month, SV@Home brings together regional housing partners to offer a wide range of virtual and in-person events, including workshops, webinars, and community engagement activities. These events aim to inform, inspire, and mobilize advocates and residents alike to better understand the region’s housing challenges and work collaboratively toward meaningful solutions.

The theme for 2026 is “Strength in Housing,” signifying there is strength in coming together as a community. This theme encourages participants to explore innovative approaches to building equitable, inclusive, and restorative communities.

The City of Campbell encourages all citizens, legislators, and advocates to collaborate in finding viable, creative solutions to the current housing crisis in order to meaningfully increase housing affordability throughout the bay area.

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Use of FY26/27 RMRA Funds for the Annual Street Maintenance Project 27-BB: Collector and Residential Street Resurfacing Program (Resolution/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the use of FY26/27 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) Funds for the Annual Street Maintenance Project 27-BB: Collector and Residential Street Resurfacing Program.

BACKGROUND
The California Legislature passed Senate Bill 1 (SB1), which was signed into law on April 28, 2017. SB1 created the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program to address deferred maintenance on the state highway system and the local street and road systems.

Additionally, the bill mandates that designated program funds be deposited into the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). These funds are comprised of gasoline tax, diesel excise tax, a portion of the transportation improvement fee imposed under the Vehicle License Fee Law, and a $100 annual vehicle registration fee applicable only to model year 2020 or later zero-emission vehicles.

As required by SB1, the California Transportation Commission (CTC) adopted criteria to ensure the efficient use of these funds as detailed below. In addition, the passage of 2018 Proposition 69 guaranteed that revenue from the RMRA funds will only be used for transportation improvement purposes. Pursuant to Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2032(h), 50 percent of the RMRA funding will be apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties to be used for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system. Since its creation, funds from RMRA have become a significant funding source for the City’s Annual Street Maintenance Program.

This is the tenth year in which the City is receiving RMRA funding and will enable the City to continue essential road maintenance and rehabilitation projects to address pavement problems before they become worse and cost more to fix later.

Use of RMRA funds is subject to adherence to the Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2032.5(a) which articulates the general intent of the legislature that recipients of RMRA funding be held accountable for the efficient investment of public funds to maintain Item 7.5
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 37 of 559

local streets and roads and are accountable to the people through performance goals which are tracked and reported.

Cities and counties receiving RMRA funds must comply with all relevant federal and state laws, regulations, policies, and procedures. The main requirements for the program are codified in SHC Sections 2034, 2036, 2037, and 2038. Some of those requirements are listed as follows:
 Prior to receiving an apportionment of RMRA funds from the Controller in a fiscal year, a city or county must submit to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) a list of projects proposed to be funded with these funds.

The list of projects must include a description and the location of each proposed project, a proposed schedule for the project’s completion, and the estimated useful life of the improvement. The next deadline for submitting this list to CTC is July 1, 2026.
 All projects proposed to receive funding must be included in a city or county budget that is adopted by the applicable city council or county board of supervisors at a regular public meeting.
 A city or county receiving an apportionment of RMRA funds is required to sustain a maintenance of effort (MOE) by spending at least the annual average of its general fund expenditures during baseline years for street, road, and highway purposes from the city’s or county’s general fund.

One of the goals established by the City’s General Plan 2040 is to ensure that the City’s circulation network is improved over time to support buildout of the General Plan. RMRA funds have advanced the City’s effort to meet this goal by providing additional support for preventative maintenance measures of essential road services and development of rehabilitation projects to prevent pavement issues from becoming larger (and more costly) repairs.

DISCUSSION
The City of Campbell’s five-year Capital Improvement Program budget for Annual Street Maintenance includes RMRA funds as one of its funding sources. Other funding sources include the Capital Improvement Program Reserve (CIPR), vehicle impact fee, Santa Clara County VTA vehicle registration fees (vehicle license fees), and Santa Clara County VTA Measure B funds.

Proposed FY26/27Project for RMRA Funds
Staff recommends applying FY26/27 RMRA funds, estimated at $1,226,915 (January 2026 State Dept of Finance projected revenues), to the Annual Street Maintenance Project 27-BB: Collector and Residential Street Resurfacing Program. The project will resurface approximately 2.0 centerline miles of streets as shown in the attached Exhibit A: Proposed Candidate Street List.

The project in FY26/27 will focus on the resurfacing of residential and collector streets.

The goal of street maintenance is to extend the useful life of the pavement from 5 to 20 years by using various preventive maintenance treatments such as slurry seal, rubberized cape seal, and hot mix asphalt overlay. For example, a slurry seal could extend the useful Item 7.5
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 38 of 559

life of the pavement by 5 years, a rubber cape seal by 10 years, and a hot mix asphalt overlay by 20 years.

It is estimated that the project will begin construction in March of 2027 and complete by September of 2027.

FISCAL IMPACT
By submitting the annual report identifying the FY26/27 project, the Annual Street Maintenance Project 27-BB: Collector and Residential Street Resurfacing Program, the City is complying with the program requirements; therefore, is eligible to receive RMRA funds for the fiscal year. The current estimated revenue allocation to Campbell in FY26/27 is $1,226,915.

ALTERNATIVES
Do not authorize the use of FY26/27 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA) Funds for the Annual Street Maintenance Project 27-BB: Collector and Residential Street Resurfacing Program and provide direction to staff on alternate use of the funds.

BACKGROUND
On October 5, 2021, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 12773, authorizing staff to apply for the One Bay Area Grant Program Cycle 2 (OBAG2) grant application for the design phase of three improvements identified in the Transportation Improvement Plan for Campbell Priority Development Area (PDA) Project (TIPC Study). The improvements, packaged as Campbell PDA Enhancements Project 22-NN received a grant award of $550,000 in federal funds. City Council authorized a local contribution of $100,000 from the City’s Vehicle Impact Fees (VIF) for a total project budget of $650,000.

On June 7, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 12842 authorizing the issuance of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for consultant design services for the Campbell PDA Enhancements Project 22-NN. As a result of the RFP process, a consultant services agreement was executed on January 17, 2023. The design work was completed in October 2024. Accounting for all expenditures, Project 22-NN has a remaining balance of $50,180 in (VIF) and $287,154 in OBAG2 funds. These savings are available to transfer to future phases of Campbell PDA projects.

Item 7.6
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 45 of 559

The design of Project 22-NN was set up to allow the City the flexibility to scope and construct in three phases as funding allows. On October 14, 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution #13221 approving the Plans and Specifications for the Campbell PDA Enhancements on Civic Center Drive at Second and Third Streets Project No. 25-DD (Phase 1). Following advertisement and contract award, construction for Project No. 25- DD was completed with project savings of $92,030. The City Council adopted Resolution No. 26-13375 accepting the improvements on March 24, 2026. City Council also authorized the transfer of the project savings to future phases of Campbell PDA projects.

This report focuses on the delivery of Phase 2, the construction of pedestrian safety improvements at the intersection of Orchard City Drive and South Central Avenue. Work includes upgrading ADA accessible curb ramps and installing sidewalk bulb outs to reduce pedestrian crossing distance and improve visibility of pedestrians at the intersection.

The future and final phase (Phase 3) of Campbell PDA project will focus on reconfiguring the intersection of Civic Center Drive and Harrison Avenue to improve pedestrian safety and encourage slower vehicle travel speeds. The delivery of Phase 3 will proceed when funding becomes available.

DISCUSSION
With the completion of Phase 1, Phase 2 is being prepared for construction. Project 26- NN (Phase 2) focuses on improving pedestrian safety at the intersection of Orchard City Drive and South Central Avenue. To achieve this goal, Project 26-NN will construct various pedestrian and bicycle improvements:

1. Retrofitting three (3) curb ramps at the intersection to comply with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

2. Installing a curb extension and sidewalk bulb-out on the southwest quadrant of the intersection to provide better visibility and more standing room.

3. Installing a rectangular rapid flashing beacon (RRFB) system on the west leg of Orchard City Drive at South Central Avenue to make oncoming traffic aware of pedestrian who are walking across Orchard City Drive.

4. Installing shared lane pavement markings (sharrows) to guide bicyclists to position themselves safely within a lane and remind motorists to share the lane with bicyclists. Sharrows will be installed along Orchard City Drive from East Campbell Avenue to Railway Avenue; along Civic Center Drive from Railway Avenue to Fourth Street; and, on East Campbell Avenue between Winchester Boulevard and Fourth Street.

The final plans and specifications for Project 26-NN are complete and can be viewed online here.

The engineer’s cost estimate for the construction of Phase 2 improvements is $570,000.

Tentative Project Schedule
The following is the anticipated schedule:

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Authorization to Access Specific Criminal History Information of Prospective Employees, Volunteers, or Contractors (Resolution/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the Human Resources Division to access the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s criminal history of prospective employees, volunteers, or contractors.

BACKGROUND
California Penal Code Sections 11105 and 13300 authorize the Department of Justice (DOJ) to provide criminal history information to a city as part of the employee recruitment process. The City of Campbell conducts criminal background checks for all prospective employees, volunteers, and contractors in compliance with California Government Code Section 12952. The City’s current authorization through the DOJ is limited to criminal background check results from within California and does not extend nationwide.

DISCUSSION
When the City hires an applicant, or proceeds with placing a volunteer or contractor, the City receives records of convictions, if any, from the DOJ. This information is considered in accordance with DOJ policies and Federal and State law to determine whether any past criminal conduct warrants exclusion from employment. The DOJ also reports current employees’ subsequent arrests and convictions, if any, to the City. The City reviews the information from the DOJ solely for the purpose of employment decisions, and does not disseminate the information to other entities. When receiving information on past criminal convictions, subsequent arrest, or subsequent convictions, the following is considered:
• The nature of the crime and its relationship to the position. • The time since the conviction.
• The number (if more than one) of convictions.
• Whether hiring, transferring, or promoting the applicant or employee would pose an unreasonable risk to the business, its employees, or its customers and vendors.

The City will not consider a person who has been convicted of a violent or serious felony or misdemeanor eligible for employment, which includes volunteers and contract employees.

Item 7.7
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 52 of 559

Currently, the City’s DOJ account is not set up to provide access to Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) criminal history records of prospective employees, volunteers, or contractors which would include convictions from every state in the United States. As a consequence, if there was any criminal history or subsequent arrest or conviction outside of California, the City would not be notified.

In order to adjust the account to include access to the FBI’s national criminal history database, the City Council must adopt a resolution authorizing the Human Resources Division to access criminal history information nationwide. Staff recommends modifying the City’s electronic Live Scan fingerprinting account with the DOJ to include an option for accessing national FBI criminal history information in addition to State of California records of prospective employees (including volunteers and contractors).

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this resolution.

ALTERNATIVES

1. Direct staff to provide additional information.

2. Provide other direction.

TITLE: Campbell Branch Library Lease Agreement
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council approve the Campbell Branch Library Lease Agreement between the City of Campbell and the Santa Clara County Library District Joint Powers Authority and authorize the City Manager to execute the Agreement.

BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2018, Campbell voters passed a $50,000,000 general obligation bond measure (Measure O) with 69.5% of the vote. The purpose of Measure O was to fund a new police operations building, and to fully renovate the existing Campbell Branch Library to address critical structural needs (The Library Renovation Project). The Library Renovation Project (Project) was also intended to advance the City’s long term energy conservation goals by fully renovating the existing 24,000 square foot facility into an allelectric, flexible space that would provide a variety of services for everyone in the community to enjoy. With free Wi-Fi, collaborative meeting rooms, a fully equipped “Community Room,” imaginative children’s play spaces, and dedicated spaces for children, teens and adults, the “new” library would have something for everyone.

On November 10, 2023, the City broke ground on the Project and on October 17, 2025, the City held its Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the Project. The City then turned over the newly renovated building to the Santa Clara County Library District Joint Powers Authority (Library JPA) to prepare the building for operation. The attached Campbell Branch Library Lease Agreement (Lease) between the City and the Library JPA memorializes the roles and responsibilities of each party and is summarized below.

DISCUSSION
On April 19, 2026, City staff and staff from the Library JPA tentatively agreed to the terms of a new Lease for the newly renovated Campbell Branch Library, with the parties committing to take the Lease to their governing bodies for approval on May 19, 2026, and June 4, 2026, respectively.

Item 7.8

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Adoption of an Ordinance Extending Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347, which Continues Implementation of the Starter Home Revitalization Act with a Revised Method of Applying Vacancy Requirements to Single-Family Residential Properties (Ordinance/ 4/5 Roll Call Vote).

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt an ordinance to extend Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347, for a period for 10 months and 15 days.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Adoption of this interim ordinance is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Government Code Sections 65852.28(e) and 66499.41(i).

BACKGROUND
At its meeting of April 21, 2026, the City Council adopted Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347, reestablishing the urgency measures of Interim Ordinance No. 2334 adopted last year to implement the Starter Home Revitalization Act, as most recently amended by SB 1123 and AB 130. The ordinance revises the method of applying vacancy requirements to single-family residential properties by requiring that parcels satisfy the statutory definition of “vacant” at the time of submittal, rather than at a later point (i.e., prior to building permit submittal or final map recordation).

Pursuant to California Government Code Section 65858, the interim ordinance is in effect for 45 days, expiring on June 5, 2026. Following initial adoption, the Government Code allows a city to extend an interim ordinance for a period of up to 10 months and 15 days after a duly noticed public hearing. The additional time is intended to allow for the preparation of a permanent ordinance and/or the adoption of policies to address the land use matters that prompted the interim ordinance.

DISCUSSION
The draft ordinance would extend Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 for an additional 10 months and 15 days, through April 20, 2027, or until it is superseded by a subsequent ordinance, whichever occurs first. Pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(d), at least 10 days prior to the expiration of the interim ordinance or any extension, the City Council must issue a written report describing the measures taken to alleviate the Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 78 of 559

conditions that led to the adoption of the ordinance. This staff report is intended to satisfy that requirement.

As reflected in the findings supporting the original interim ordinance, the City Council determined the need to modify the Ordinance regarding its application to parcels developed with existing single-family residences. To address this concern, in addition to adopting a new interim ordinance, the City Council also directed staff to evaluate the preparation of a demolition control ordinance that could be used to prevent the intentional demolition of an existing dwelling for the purpose of rendering a site “vacant,” and thereby eligible for a starter home project. Staff is currently awaiting guidance from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) regarding the scope of local authority in this area (reference Attachment 3 – Technical Assistance Request).

Accordingly, extension of Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 is warranted to maintain a consistent and legally supportable approach to implementation of the Act during a period of ongoing regulatory and statutory uncertainty.

NEXT STEPS
Looking ahead, the interim ordinance may also need to be amended again later this year if Senate Bill 1116 is adopted by the Legislature and signed by the Governor, as the bill proposes additional changes to the Starter Home Revitalization Act. Notably, the current draft would modify the statutory definition of “vacant” by lowering the threshold for existing structures from “uninhabitable” to “untenantable” under the Civil Code. This would shift the standard from a relatively high threshold, which in practice is often associated with conditions that would result in the Building Official declaring a structure unsafe or unlawful to occupy (commonly referred to as “red-tagging”), to a prescriptive set of criteria.

Specifically, under Civil Code Section 1941.1, a structure may be considered untenantable if it lacks basic elements such as functioning plumbing, heating, electrical service, weather protection, or adequate sanitary facilities.

The current version of the bill, as amended on April 23, 2026, would include several additional notable revisions to the Starter Home Revitalization Act, beyond the modification to the definition of “vacant,” including:
 Development Standards: Further limits on local objective standards, including restrictions on setbacks (e.g., limiting front setbacks to no more than 10 feet and prohibiting internal setbacks between newly created parcels) and prohibiting any standard, or combination of standards, that would physically preclude development of units averaging up to 1,750 net habitable square feet.  Height/Stories: Clarifies that height limits apply only to physical building height and not the number of stories, which would preclude the City from enforcing its 2½-story limit.
 Density Standard. Eliminates the current minimum-density test (e.g., the requirement to achieve at least 66 percent of maximum allowable density) and instead ties eligibility to the site’s base zoning, which may allow for projects with Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 79 of 559

fewer units per lot. Because the current minimum-density requirement has functioned as a limiting factor in staff’s observation, this change would likely result in lower-density projects qualifying that would not meet the current minimumdensity requirement.  Minimum Parcel Sizes: Authorizes smaller parcels through lot size averaging, allowing parcels as small as 480 square feet (multifamily) or 960 square feet (single-family), provided that average parcel size requirements are met.  State Oversight: Requirement that local implementing ordinances be submitted to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), with authority for HCD to review and issue findings regarding compliance, and potential nullification of noncompliant ordinances.
 Invalidation of Private Restrictions: Provisions rendering unenforceable certain private covenants or restrictions that would prohibit or physically preclude development.
 Liberal Construction Mandate: Direction that the Act be interpreted broadly in favor of producing the maximum number of housing units.

PUBLIC NOTICE
As required by the State law, a notice of this public hearing was published in the Metro Silicon Valley newspaper and posted on the City's public notices page.

WHEREAS, on September 19, 2024, the Governor of the State of California signed into law Senate Bill No. 1123 (Caballero), which amended Sections 65852.28 and 66499.41 of the California Government Code to expand and clarify eligibility for ministerial approval under the Starter Home Revitalization Act, including by permitting qualifying projects on certain vacant single-family residential parcels, reducing applicable density thresholds, and clarifying key implementation provisions;
WHEREAS, on June 30, 2025, the Governor of the State of California signed into law Assembly Bill No. 130 (Committee on Budget), a budget trailer bill that enacted amendments to Government Code Section 66499.41 and related provisions, including clarifying the treatment of remainder parcels, refining the relationship between unit construction and map recordation, and establishing additional limitations on the sale, lease, or financing of subdivided parcels prior to final inspection;
WHEREAS, the provisions of Senate Bill No. 1123 and Assembly Bill No. 130 became operative on July 1, 2025, and, in the absence of locally adopted development standards, requirements, and implementation procedures, may conflict with existing provisions of the Campbell Municipal Code and create uncertainty, inconsistencies, and administrative challenges in the implementation of State law; WHEREAS, certain development standards, requirements, and permitting procedures in the Campbell Municipal Code are inconsistent with, or do not fully implement, the provisions of Government Code Sections 65852.28, 65913.4.5, and 66499.41, including, but not limited to, standards related to lot configuration, land use definitions, and review procedures;
WHEREAS, Government Code Sections 65852.28(e), 65913.4.5(b), and 66499.41(i) authorize local agencies to adopt ordinances and procedures to implement the provisions of the Starter Home Revitalization Act;

Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 82 of 559

WHEREAS, on August 4, 2025, the City Council adopted Interim Ordinance No. 2334 to implement Senate Bill 1123, as amended by Assembly Bill 130, thereby superseding Interim Ordinance No. 2332;
WHEREAS, on September 16, 2025, the City Council adopted Interim Ordinance No. 2335 to extend Interim Ordinance No. 2334 for a period of ten months and fifteen days; WHEREAS, on April 21, 2026, the City Council adopted Interim Ordinance No. 26- 2347 for an initial period of forty-five (45) days, which reestablished the urgency measures of Interim Ordinance No. 2334, with an amendment revising the method of applying vacancy requirements to single-family residential properties, and superseded Interim Ordinance No. 2334;
WHEREAS, Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 currently provides the City’s interim standards and procedures for implementing the Starter Home Revitalization Act, including eligibility criteria, subdivision requirements, and objective development standards for qualifying small-scale housing development projects, as well as provisions governing the application of vacancy requirements to single-family residential parcels; WHEREAS, unless extended by the City Council in accordance with Government Code Section 65858, Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 will expire on June 5, 2026, and the interim standards and procedures established by that ordinance will no longer remain in effect;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code Section 65858(d), the City Council has considered and hereby issues the Staff Report dated May 19, 2026, as the written report describing the measures taken to date to alleviate the condition that led to the adoption of Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 and the urgency measures originally established by Interim Ordinance No. 2334, and such report was issued at least ten (10) days prior to the expiration of Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 or any extension thereof; WHEREAS, the City is continuing its study to update zoning code provisions to conform to recent changes in State law, which is expected to be completed during the extension period authorized by this ordinance, or before adoption of a superseding permanent ordinance, whichever occurs first;
WHEREAS, since the adoption of Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347, the City has continued to receive, process, and evaluate starter home project applications under the City’s interim implementation measures;
WHEREAS, the implementation experience that supported adoption of Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 continues to demonstrate the need for clear interim standards governing starter home project applications, particularly for applications involving singlefamily residential properties; WHEREAS, the City Council desires to extend Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 to maintain the City’s current interim implementation measures while City staff continues to Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 83 of 559

evaluate permanent amendments to the Campbell Municipal Code and any further changes to State law affecting the Starter Home Revitalization Act; WHEREAS, the City Council finds that there remains a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare because the expiration of Interim Ordinance No. 26- 2347 would remove the City’s current interim standards and procedures for implementing the Starter Home Revitalization Act, thereby creating uncertainty, inconsistent administration, and the potential for premature removal of existing housing before permanent regulations are adopted;
WHEREAS, adoption of this interim ordinance is statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Government Code Sections 65852.28(e), 65913.4.5(b), and 66499.41(i);
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 65858 of the Government Code, the City Council may extend the previously adopted interim ordinance for 10 months and 15 days after public notification and following a public hearing;
WHEREAS, the City Council finds and determines that extending Interim Ordinance No. 26-2347 would not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or general welfare of the city; and is internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Campbell Municipal Code;
WHEREAS, this interim ordinance would not have the effect of denying approvals provided for under State law that are needed for the development of projects with a significant component of multifamily housing;
WHEREAS, it is not the intent of this interim ordinance to deny or delay the approval of housing development projects that are in compliance with Government Code Sections 65852.28, 65913.4.5, and 66499.41; and
WHEREAS, considering the foregoing findings, the City Council further finds that there is a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, or welfare, and that adherence to existing standards, requirements, and permitting procedures in conflict with this interim ordinance would result in that threat to public health, safety, or welfare.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1 (SEVERABILITY): If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of this interim ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of the Ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this interim ordinance and each and every section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase not declared invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any portion of the ordinance would be subsequently declared invalid or unconstitutional.

Outlook
Case HAU0003283 opened - Housing Law Request - [email protected] From Dept. of Housing & Community Development <[email protected]> Date Thu 4/16/2026 2:29 PM
To Daniel Fama <[email protected]>
Thank you for reaching out to the Department of Housing and Community Development’s Housing Accountability Unit (HAU).

This email confirms receipt of a request for assistance from Daniel Fama submitted on April 16 2026 as follows:

Summary of Request for Assistance: Please advise on the following questions:

1. Must a parcel satisfy the statutory definition of "vacant" under Government Code section 66499.41(a)(2)(A)(ii) at the time a development proponent submits an application? If not, at what point must vacancy be established?

2. The SHRA statute does not specify when vacancy must be established, unlike other State housing laws that tie eligibility criteria to a defined point in time (for example, Gov.

Code § 65912.101(v)). In the absence of such guidance, the City of Campbell adopted an interim ordinance providing that, for a parcel located in a single-family residential zone, the parcel must satisfy the statutory definition of “vacant” no later than recordation of the project’s final map or issuance of a building permit, whichever occurs first. Is this approach consistent with Government Code section 66499.41(a)(2)(A)(ii)?

3. Does Government Code section 66300.6(a) apply to the approval of a stand-alone demolition permit for an existing residential unit, where no application for construction of new housing has been submitted as part of the demolition request? If so, must the city deny or withhold approval of the demolition permit unless and until there is an accompanying housing proposal that will replace at least the number of units to be demolished?

4. If HCD determines that Government Code Section 66300.6(a) does not apply to approval of a stand-alone demolition permit for an existing residential unit, may the City adopt a demolition control ordinance that limits issuance of demolition permits for existing residential units unless a replacement housing project has already received the necessary approvals, in order to prevent a property from being cleared of existing housing solely to render it “vacant” and therefore eligible under Government Code Section 66499.41? If so, what limitations would apply under Government Code Section 66499.41 and other applicable state housing laws?

5. Does Government Code section 65941.1 allow a preliminary application for a housing development project to be submitted after a formal application has already been filed, rather than prior to submittal of the formal application?

6. The City’s residential height standards include both a numeric height limit and a Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 86 of 559
maximum number of stories. Under Government Code section 65852.28(b)(2)(A)(ii), may the City enforce both standards, or must compliance be evaluated solely based on the numeric height limit?

7. Government Code section 66499.41(a)(6) excludes “half-stories” from the definition of net habitable square feet. Where a local definition of a half-story permits habitable floor area, is that area nonetheless excluded from the 1,750 square foot limit, or is the exclusion intended to apply only to non-habitable space, like the other examples provided in the statute (e.g., garages, carports, and unfinished attics)? Case Number: HAU0003283
Time Received: 01:29:12 PM PST
Please be mindful of the following:

Required Support Materials: Please be prepared to submit materials such as a project description, project location, and associated project documents to support your request if you have not already done so via the HAU Portal. The assigned analyst will request these materials if they are not included in the initial submittal.

Local Agency Will Be Contacted: The standard review process involves the assigned analyst contacting the local agency to discuss the request/complaint.

However, the HAU may be able to honor a request by an applicant or advocate to not contact the local agency. The assigned analyst will meet with the requester and local agency in separate meetings.

Project Specific Questions are Prioritized over Hypothetical Questions: The HAU generally does not opine on hypothetical development proposals. If possible, the requestor should connect their issue to a project.

Item 8.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 87 of 559
City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Public Hearing to consider the adoption of an Interim Ordinance, identifying specific sites for exclusion from Senate Bill 79 (SB 79) applicability, amending Section 21.02.020.E (Conflicting Requirements) of the Campbell Municipal Code to clarify the applicability of State and Federal preemptions to the Zoning Code, including as related to the implementation of Senate Bill 79, amending the Zoning Map to add a reference to Historic Structures of Merit, and authorizing submittal to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for statutory review. (Ordinance/Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council take the following action: Adopt an Interim Ordinance, identifying specific sites for exclusion from Senate Bill 79 (SB 79) applicability, amending Section

21.02.020.E (Conflicting Requirements) of the Campbell Municipal Code to clarify the applicability of State and Federal preemptions to the Zoning Code, including as related to the implementation of Senate Bill 79, amending the Zoning Map to add a reference to Historic Structures of Merit, and authorizing submittal to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for statutory review.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY / BACKGROUND
This item is before the City Council to readopt the same Interim Ordinance that was previously adopted by the City Council on March 24, 2026. That ordinance identified certain sites for exclusion from Senate Bill 79, made related Zoning Code and Zoning Map amendments, and authorized submittal to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for statutory review.

The March 24, 2026, Interim Ordinance was adopted for an initial 45-day period and expired on May 8, 2026. Staff had previously scheduled the Interim Ordinance for extension at the April 21, 2026, City Council meeting. However, due to a public noticing error, the item was ineligible for consideration, pulled from the agenda, and the Interim Ordinance was not extended before its expiration.

Because the Interim Ordinance has expired, the City must adopt a new Interim Ordinance rather than proceed with an extension. The Interim Ordinance now before the City Council does not make any changes to the Interim Ordinance previously adopted on March 24, Item 8.2
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 88 of 559

2026. Its purpose is to readopt the same SB 79 implementation framework before SB 79 takes effect on July 1, 2026.

Accordingly, staff recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed Interim Ordinance to readopt the same ordinance previously adopted on March 24, 2026.

PROCEDURAL REQUIREMENTS
California Government Code Section 65858 allows local jurisdictions to adopt an Interim Ordinance to approve urgency measures as needed to provide sufficient time to address pressing land use matters. Consistent with the Government Code, Campbell Municipal Code Section 21.60.090 (Interim Ordinance) also provides that "the City Council may take appropriate action to adopt an urgency measure, as an interim ordinance, in compliance with State law…"
Adoption of an Interim Ordinance requires a supermajority of the City Council (four-fifths vote) and is effective for no more than 45 days. The City Council may further extend the interim ordinance for 10 months and 15 days after a noticed public hearing and may subsequently extend the urgency ordinance for up to two years. Ten days prior to the expiration of the ordinance, the City Council must issue a written report describing the measures taken to alleviate the conditions which led to the adoption of the ordinance.

Government Code section 65858(a) provides that the City Council may, after notice pursuant to Government Code section 65090 and a public hearing, subsequently extend an interim ordinance for an additional one year beyond expiration of the first extension.

Staff anticipates that the Interim Ordinance will need to be extended prior to the 45-day expiration to allow sufficient time to prepare and adopt a formal ordinance through the normal hearing procedures.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires agencies to identify the potential environmental effects of “projects”. While adoption of the proposed Interim Ordinance is considered a "project" under Section 15378(a)(1) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), it may be found exempt from environmental review under Section 15061(b)(3) because it does not create environmental impacts and merely preserves the status quo. The Interim Ordinance may also be found categorically exempt under Section 15308 of the California Environmental Quality Act because it is a temporary regulatory action taken by the City pursuant to its police power and in accordance with Government Code Section 65858 in the interest of evaluating and preventing potential environmental harms related to implementation of SB 79.

FISCAL IMPACTS
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with adoption of the proposed ordinance. Any administrative costs associated with ordinance adoption and HCD coordination would be absorbed within existing departmental resources.

ALTERNATIVES

1. Take no action.

SUBMITTAL TO THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING
AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT FOR STATUTORY REVIEW.

FILE NO. PLN-2025-170
WHEREAS, after notification and public hearing, as specified by law and after presentation by the Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 65858 of the Government Code and Section 21.60.090 of the Campbell Municipal Code, the City Council may take appropriate action to adopt urgency measures as an Interim Ordinance (hereinafter “Ordinance”).

WHEREAS, the legislature of the State of California has, in Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution and Government Code Sections 65302 and 65800, conferred upon local governments the authority to adopt regulations designed to promote the public health, safety and general welfare of its citizenry.

WHEREAS, Senate Bill 79 (SB 79), the Abundant and Affordable Homes Near Transit Act, of 2025 and codified in Government Code Chapter 4.1.5 (commencing with Gov. Code Section 65912.155), operative July 1, 2026, establishes statewide minimum residential density and development standards for properties located within one-half mile of qualifying transitoriented development (TOD) stops.

WHEREAS, SB 79 establishes substantial increases in allowable residential density and building height within large portions of the City, including areas not previously planned or evaluated for such development intensity.

WHEREAS, SB 79 authorizes local jurisdictions to exclude certain sites from SB 79 applicability through adoption of a local ordinance, subject to review and approval by the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), prior to the statute’s effective date of July 1, 2026.

WHEREAS, SB 79 permits exclusion of sites within one-half mile of a qualifying transit stop where the site lacks a pedestrian walking path of less than one mile to the transit stop, pursuant to Government Code § 65912.160(e)(1), provided the determination is supported by substantial evidence.

WHEREAS, SB 79 also permits exclusion of sites designated on a local historic register as of January 1, 2025, pursuant to Government Code § 65912.161(b)(1)(F), until one year following the adoption of the seventh-cycle housing element.

City Council Ordinance No.

PLN-2025-170 – SB 79 Site Exclusions

WHEREAS, in 1984, the City Council of the City of Campbell adopted Resolution No. 6793 establishing the City’s Historic Resource Inventory (HRI), and since that time properties have been added to and removed from the HRI as appropriate, with the current inventory maintained on file by the City’s Community Development Department.

WHEREAS, SB 79 requires that any local exclusion ordinance be submitted to HCD for review, and provides HCD 90 days to determine whether the exclusions are consistent with statutory requirements.

WHEREAS, the Planning Division has analyzed properties within one-half mile of qualifying transit-oriented development stops and has identified certain sites that qualify for exclusion under SB 79, as set forth in Exhibit A (Walking Path Exclusions) and Exhibit B (Historic Register Exclusions) attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

WHEREAS, adoption of this ordinance on an urgency basis is necessary to preserve the City’s ability to timely submit the ordinance to HCD and obtain review and confirmation prior to the July 1, 2026, effective date of SB 79.

WHEREAS, failure to adopt this ordinance prior to the effective date of SB 79 could result in the automatic application of SB 79 development standards to sites that qualify for exclusion under state law, thereby undermining the City’s ability to implement the statutory exclusion provisions authorized by the Legislature.

WHEREAS, the Planning Division is considering and studying General Plan or zoning changes necessary to comply with SB 79 and ensure that it is implemented in a manner that maximizes the production of affordable housing.

WHEREAS, the City is actively studying and considering the development of a local transitoriented development alternative plan as provided by SB 79 to ensure orderly and legally compliant implementation of SB 79, and approval of additional projects under existing regulations that conflict with those pending actions would undermine the City’s ability to protect the public health, safety, and welfare.

WHEREAS, approval of projects at sites that qualify for exclusion under state law, at the development intensities authorized by SB 79, prior to the adoption of locally tailored implementing regulations, could result in the concentration of population in areas where public infrastructure, including water, wastewater, storm drainage, roadway, and emergency response systems, has not been fully evaluated or upgraded to accommodate such intensity, thereby creating risks related to system capacity, emergency access, service delivery, and reliability; and could further result in the displacement of existing residents and the loss or conversion of commercial and employment-generating uses that support the City’s economic stability, fiscal sustainability, and access to essential goods and services, which impacts collectively constitute a current and immediate threat to the public health, safety, and welfare.

WHEREAS, pursuant to Government Code Section 65912.15(c)(2), an Ordinance enacted to make a local zoning code consistent with Chapter 4.1.5 (commencing with Section 65912.155) shall not be considered a “project” under Division 13 (commencing with Section 21000) of the Public Resources Code.

Item 8.2
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 93 of 559
City Council Ordinance No.

PLN-2025-170 – SB 79 Site Exclusions

WHEREAS, the proposed Ordinance is adopted to make the City’s zoning code consistent with Government Code Chapter 4.1.5 (commencing with Section 65912.155), and therefore, pursuant to Government Code Section 65912.15(c)(2), is not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

WHEREAS, in consideration of the adoption of the subject Ordinance, the City Council provided due consideration of all evidence presented and provided in the entire administrative record.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CAMPBELL DOES HEREBY ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:

SECTION 1 (PURPOSE). This Ordinance is adopted as an urgency measure to implement the site exclusion provisions of Senate Bill 79 (SB 79), codified at Government Code Chapter

4.1.5 (commencing with Section 65912.155), prior to its July 1, 2026 effective date, and avoid conflicts with contemplated General Plan or zoning proposal that the Planning Department is considering and studying in order to implement the requirements of SB 79.

The purpose of this Ordinance is to: (1) identify specific sites within one-half mile of qualifying transit-oriented development stops that qualify for exclusion from SB 79 applicability pursuant to state law; (2) amend Section 21.02.020.E. of the Campbell Municipal Code to clarify the applicability of state and federal preemption to the Zoning Code, including as related to SB 79; and (3) authorize submittal of this Ordinance to the California Department of Housing and Community Development for statutory review. This Ordinance is intended to preserve the City’s ability to exercise the exclusion authority expressly granted under SB 79 and to ensure orderly and lawful implementation of state housing law within the City of Campbell.

SECTION 2 (WALKING PATH EXCLUSIONS). Pursuant to SB 79 (Gov. Code § 65912.160(e)(1)), the City Council hereby determines that the properties identified in Exhibit A qualify for exclusion from SB 79 applicability because each such site lacks a walking path of less than one mile to a pedestrian access point of a qualifying transit-oriented development stop. This determination is supported by substantial evidence in the administrative record, including, without limitation, the analysis included in Exhibit A, and staff reports prepared in connection with this ordinance, and shall remain in for the duration of this ordinance and any extension of this ordinance or and successor ordinance.

SECTION 3 (HISTORIC REGISTER EXCLUSIONS). Pursuant to SB 79 (Gov. Code § 65912.161(b)(1)(F), the City Council hereby determines that the properties identified in Exhibit B qualify for exclusion from SB 79 applicability because each such site was designated on the City’s local historic register as of January 1, 2025. This exclusion shall remain in effect for the duration of this ordinance and any extension of this ordinance or and successor ordinance, after which SB 79’s standards will apply unless otherwise addressed by the City.

SECTION 3 (ZONING MAP TEXT AMENDMENT). To implement the exclusions authorized in Section 3, the City Council hereby authorizes a text amendment to the Zoning Item 8.2

In the event of any conflict between the requirements of this Zoning Code and standards adopted as part of any development agreement, overlay/combining district, area plan, neighborhood plan, or specific plan, the requirements of the development agreement, overlay/combining district, area plan, neighborhood plan, or specific plan shall control;

3. Municipal Code provisions. In the event of any conflict between requirements of this Zoning Code and other regulations of the city, the most restrictive shall control; and

4. Private agreements. It is not intended that the requirements of this Zoning Code shall interfere with, repeal, abrogate, or annul any easement, covenant, or other agreement that existed when this Zoning Code became effective. This Zoning Code applies to all land uses and development regardless of whether it imposes a greater or lesser restriction on the development or use of structures or land than an applicable private agreement or restriction, without affecting the applicability of any agreement or restriction. The city shall not enforce any private covenant or agreement unless it is a party to the covenant or agreement.

5. Conflicts with state or federal law. If a conflict exists between this Zoning Code and applicable state or federal law, the applicable state or federal law shall take precedence over any City standard, permit process, or other provision. When such a conflict is identified, the Community Development Director shall issue an interpretation in accordance with Section 21.02.030 (Procedures for interpretations.), specifying the conflicting standard, permit process, or other provision; the nature of the conflict; and how the conflict will be resolved in the immediate term until the Zoning Code is amended to remedy the conflict.

In addition, the Community Development Director may prepare and maintain on file with the Community Development Department a list of specific properties that are determined to be affected by such state or federal law, or that are determined to be excluded from the application of such law pursuant to local ordinance.

City Council Ordinance No.

PLN-2025-170 – SB 79 Site Exclusions

SECTION 5 (SUBMITTAL TO HCD FOR STATUTORY REVIEW). The City Council hereby authorizes and directs the Community Development Director, or designee, to submit this Ordinance, including all exhibits and supporting documentation, to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for statutory review.

The Community Development Director is further authorized to provide additional information, technical studies, mapping, or other supporting materials requested by HCD, and to make minor, non-substantive revisions to the exhibits or supporting documentation as necessary to address HCD comments (which may include including graphically depicting sites that are or are not covered by Section 65912.157 on the Zoning Map), provided such revisions do not materially alter the determinations adopted by the City Council.

SECTION 6 (SEVERABILITY). If any section, sentence, clause, phrase, word, or other provision of this Ordinance is for any reason held to be unconstitutional or otherwise invalid, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining sections, sentences, clauses, phrases, words or other provisions of this Ordinance, or the validity of this Ordinance, shall stand notwithstanding the invalidity of any section, sentence, clause, phrase, word or other provision.

SECTION 7 (CEQA DETERMINATION). The proposed Ordinance is not subject to review under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because, pursuant to Government Code Section 65912.15(c)(2), an ordinance adopted to make the City’s zoning code consistent with Government Code Chapter 4.1.5 (commencing with Section 65912.155) is not considered a “project” under Division 13 (commencing with Section 21000) of the Public Resources Code.

SECTION 8 (EFFECTIVE DATES). This Ordinance shall take effect immediately upon its passage and shall remain in effect for 45 days, unless extended or repealed by the City Council in accordance with applicable law.

SECTION 9 (PUBLICATION). The City Clerk shall cause this Ordinance to be published and shall be published, or summary thereof, one time within fifteen (15) days upon passage and adoption in a newspaper of general circulation, such as the Metro Silicon Valley, for the City of Campbell, County of Santa Clara.

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Public Hearing Pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3 to Receive a Report on City of Campbell Vacancies, and Recruitment and Retention Efforts
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

Receive the informational report on City of Campbell Vacancies, and Recruitment and Retention Efforts Pursuant to Government Code Section 3502.3.

BACKGROUND
Assembly Bill 2561 (“AB 2561”) was signed into law on September 22, 2024, to amend the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (“MMBA”), and was codified in Government Code section 3502.3. AB 2561 requires public agencies to hold a public hearing to report on staffing vacancies and recruitment and retention efforts prior to the adoption of the final budget for the upcoming fiscal year. This new requirement stems from the California Legislature determining that public sector vacancies are a widespread and significant problem that cause heavier workloads and result in burnout and increased turnover for employees, which in turn affect the delivery of public services.

During this public hearing, the City must present information on the status of vacancies and the City’s recruitment and retention efforts. If necessary, the City will identify changes that could be made to policies, procedures, or recruitment activities to address obstacles that may exist in the hiring process. This public hearing will ensure compliance with the new law.

DISCUSSION
AB 2561 requires public agencies to hold a public hearing to address the status of job vacancies prior to the adoption of the upcoming final budget.

Staff is required to present the following information at the public hearing:

1. The status of vacancies at the City of Campbell.

2. Information on the City of Campbell’s recruitment and retention efforts.

3. Obstacles in the City of Campbell’s policies, procedures, and recruitment activities that may create challenges in the hiring process.

Item 8.3
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 116 of 559

If the number of job vacancies within a single bargaining unit meets or exceeds 20% of the total number of authorized full-time positions, the staff presentation will also include the following information upon request of the bargaining unit:

1. The total number of job vacancies within the bargaining unit.

2. The total number of applicants for vacant positions within the bargaining unit.

3. The average number of days to complete the hiring process from when a position is posted.

4. Opportunities to improve compensation and other working conditions.

Vacancies
As of April 15, 2026, the current vacancy rates for all the City’s employee groups are as follows:

Employee Group Budgeted
Positions
Vacant
Positions
Vacancy
Rate
Campbell Police Civilian Employees Association
(CPCEA) 20.75 2.75 13%
Campbell Municipal Employees Association
(CMEA) 55 7 13%
Carpenters Local 405/Northern California
Carpenters Regional Council (CARP) 22 1 5%
Campbell Peace Officers' Association (CPOA) 43 5 12%
TOTAL 140.75 15.75 11%
Please note that the number of budgeted and vacant positions do not include positions that were frozen in the Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget. Frozen positions are not considered to be authorized to be filled.

In compliance with AB 2561, staff will present on the three requirements:

1. The status of vacancies at the City of Campbell.

2. Information on the City of Campbell’s recruitment and retention efforts.

3. Obstacles in the City of Campbell’s policies, procedures, and recruitment activities that may create challenges in the hiring process.

FISCAL IMPACT
This public hearing is for informational purposes and all vacancies are included in the current Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget.

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Assembly Bill 481, Military Equipment Annual Report (Ordinance / Resolution / Roll Call Vote)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council adopt a resolution finding that each type of equipment identified in the 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report has complied with the standard set forth in Ordinance 2280; and introduce an ordinance for first reading renewing City of Campbell Ordinance 2280, per the requirements set forth in California Government Code § 7070, et seq.

BACKGROUND
On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 481 (AB 481), which stated that the public has a right to know and participate in the decision-making processes related to the funding, acquisition, or use of “military equipment” by state or local government officials in an effort to increase transparency, accountability, and oversight. AB 481 defines and differentiates military equipment as follows:
• Category 1: Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles. • Category 2: Mine-resistant, ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles or armored personnel carriers. However, police versions of standard consumer vehicles are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
• Category 3: High-mobility multi-purpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV), commonly referred to as Humvees, two and one-half-ton trucks, five-ton trucks, or wheeled vehicles that have a breaching or entry apparatus attached. However, unarmored all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and motorized dirt bikes are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
• Category 4: Tracked armored vehicles that provide ballistic protection to their occupants and utilize a tracked system instead of wheels for forward motion. • Category 5: Command and control vehicles that are either built or modified to facilitate the operational control and direction of public safety units. • Category 6: Weaponized aircraft, vessels, or vehicles of any kind. • Category 7: Battering rams, slugs, and breaching apparatuses that are explosive in nature. However, items designed to remove a lock, such as bolt cutters or a handheld ram designed to be operated by one person, are specifically excluded from this subdivision.
• Category 8: Firearms of .50-caliber or greater. However, standard-issue shotguns are specifically excluded from this subdivision.

Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 119 of 559

• Category 9: Ammunition of .50-caliber or greater. However, standard-issue shotgun ammunition is specifically excluded from this subdivision. • Category 10: Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50-caliber, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code, with the exception of standard-issue service weapons and ammunition of less than .50-caliber that are issued to officers, agents, or employees of a law enforcement agency or a State agency.
• Category 11: Any firearm or firearm accessory that is designed to launch explosive projectiles.
• Category 12: “Flashbang” grenades and explosive breaching tools, “tear gas,” and “pepper balls,” excluding standard, service-issued handheld pepper spray. • Category 13: Taser Shockwave, microwave weapons, water cannons, and the Long-Range Acoustic Device (LRAD).
• Category 14: The following projectile launch platforms and their associated munitions: 40‑millimeter projectile launchers, “bean bag,” rubber bullet, and specialty impact munition (SIM) weapons.
• Category 15: Any other equipment as determined by a governing body or a State agency to require additional oversight.

AB 481 further called for local agencies to give strong consideration to the public’s welfare, safety, civil rights, civil liberties, and public input when determining whether to use any of the above military equipment.

To further meet the intent of AB 481, the legislation required that local law enforcement departments wishing to continue their use of military equipment acquired prior to January 1, 2022, accomplish the following:

1. Draft a Military Equipment Use Policy that describes each piece of military equipment and the authorized uses for each piece of military equipment (See attached CPD Policy 709 – Military Equipment Use Policy);

2. Seek approval from their governing body, by ordinance, of the Military Equipment Use Policy (See attached Ordinance 2280 – “AB Military Equipment”) for the continued use of existing military equipment before acquiring new military equipment or seeking funds for equipment purposes; and

3. Make publicly available any proposed or final policy, for as long as the military equipment is available for use, on the department’s website.

In addition to the above requirements, AB 481 also required that the law enforcement agency prepare a Military Equipment Annual Report to include:

1. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use.

2. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment.

3. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response.

Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 120 of 559

4. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following the submission of the annual military equipment report.

5. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment.

6. If the law enforcement agency intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, and the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

AB 481 also required, within 30-days of submitting the Military Equipment Annual Report, a law enforcement agency hold at least one “well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting,” to allow for public discussion of the report.

Lastly, AB 481 required that the local agency’s governing body review the Military Equipment Annual Report and: (1) determine whether each type of military equipment identified in the annual report has complied with the standards for approval set forth in its military equipment use ordinance; and (2) vote on whether to renew the ordinance.

DISCUSSION
Military Equipment Annual Report:

The Campbell Police Department’s 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report (Attached) is being presented to the City Council to satisfy the legislation’s annual reporting requirement.

In addition, on May 6, 2026, the report was posted on the Campbell Police Department’s dedicated website related to Assembly Bill 481, with information regarding a Community Meeting scheduled for May 12, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. at 1 W. Campbell Avenue, Room Q80, for the community to provide feedback on the report. On May 6, 2026, the meeting was publicly noticed through multiple platforms to ensure broad community awareness.

On May 12, 2026, at 5:00 p.m., Campbell Police Department staff held a public meeting at 1 W. Campbell Avenue Room Q80 as detailed on the website and social media posts.

Military Equipment Annual Report - Council Findings:

During its review of the annual report, the City Council shall determine whether each type of military equipment listed in the report has complied with specified standards for approval set forth in Ordinance 2280 – AB 481 Military Equipment, as follows:

1. The military equipment is necessary because there is no reasonable alternative that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 121 of 559

2. The proposed military equipment use policy will safeguard the public's welfare, safety, civil rights, and civil liberties.

3. If purchasing the equipment, the equipment is reasonably cost-effective compared to available alternatives that can achieve the same objective of officer and civilian safety.

4. Prior military equipment use complied with the military equipment use policy that was in effect at the time, or if prior uses did not comply with the accompanying military equipment use policy, corrective action has been taken to remedy nonconforming uses and ensure future compliance.

As described below and further detailed in the attached report, the Campbell Police Department possesses military equipment from Categories 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12 and

14. After significant research, testing and practical application, law enforcement agencies have been trained and equipped with the tools to combat terrorism and high-risk criminal behavior at the local level. Responding to situations in which one or more persons are engaged in on-going aggressive, deadly behavior, requires the proper equipment to mitigate or lessen the threat to public safety.

On a frequent basis, the Campbell Police Department is faced with situations that can potentially be resolved with less lethal tactics as a result of having the appropriate training and resources available, such as welfare checks, warrant service, uncooperative individuals subject to arrest, high risk car stops, barricaded subjects, etc.

Many of the tools the department utilizes to address critical incidents and high-risk criminal behavior at the local level have become industry standards among law enforcement agencies throughout the country. Without these tools and current technology, the department would have to completely re-think operations and tactics to safely resolve situations and protect personnel.

The equipment in use by the department is intended for use to save lives, protect law enforcement personnel, reduce risk for the City, and enhance overall public safety.

Secondarily, the equipment also creates cover, distance, and time to slow the decisionmaking process. Doing so allows responding officers to take in and evaluate the totality of the circumstances, resulting in increased safety and reduced risk for everyone involved. Many of the items designated by AB 481 as military equipment have been in the Campbell Police Department’s equipment inventory for decades and have been successfully used to resolve critical incidents.

Staff has not discovered alternative items that can achieve the same objectives of officer and civilian safety. Each item’s necessity is further described below:
• Unmanned remotely piloted powered aerial / ground vehicles: Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) are necessary and have proven to be useful to public safety agencies in responding to in-progress calls for service, search and rescue, preoperational surveillance, and other tactical situations where aerial / ground views Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 122 of 559

enhance the safety and efficiency of law enforcement and fire personnel. Without the use of a UAS, peace officers would have to deploy to high-risk locations which would increase the risk to the officers and members of the public. The UAS system is designed to enter small spaces, such as enclosed structures, as well as to provide overhead observations of areas and other structures. There are no known alternatives which could be used to safely access all the interior and exterior locations.
• Armored personnel carriers / wheeled vehicles that have a breaching or entry apparatus: Armored vehicles are used to provide ballistic protection to officers and community members during rescue, critical incidents, and other hazardous situations. These vehicles allow officers closer access to high-risk situations while substantially reducing the physical risk to the officers and community members.

These vehicles are built on commercial vehicle chassis and are primarily a reinforcement of civilian commercial vehicles. As such, there are no reasonable alternatives to providing the same level of ballistic protection. • Command and control vehicles: The Mobile Incident Command Vehicle (MEOC) is an unarmored vehicle equivalent to a commercial recreational vehicle. It is equipped with specific communication and audio-visual devices to assist in command and control of a critical incident in addition to providing capabilities for crisis negotiations and police dispatching. This vehicle allows for mobile incident command and use of the incident command systems facilitating the best possible on-scene decision-making by key leaders. It also provides mobility, sheltering, logistical support, and power. It can be utilized as a temporary Emergency Operations Center. There is no known alternative for the MEOC which provides the same amount of mobility and support at one location in a quick deploying package.
• Breaching apparatuses, slugs: Shotgun breaching shells are utilized for defeating locked, barricaded, or fortified locations allowing officers to conduct rescues or high-risk forceable entries. This includes but is not limited to rescuing hostages or active shooter situations. In such situations time is of the essence and it would not be feasible to wait for other delayed access to the structure. Handheld battering rams as an alternative does not afford the same level of protection or speed that such equipment provides when necessary. As such there is no reasonable alternative to these items when they are used and required. • Specialized firearms and ammunition including assault weapons: Patrol rifles, Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) rifles, and sniper rifles enable officers, when in compliance with the Police Department’s Use of Force Policy, to address medium to long distance threats, or those threats who are heavily armed, armored, or both. Further, in both short and long-distance deployments, they allow officers precision shot placement minimizing the risk to officers and innocent community members. The .50 caliber single shot rifle is deployed in situations that exceed the capabilities of traditional sniper rifles such as structural glass, disabling vehicles, light rail trains, and buses. There are no known alternatives to these weapons that will provide the same level of distance or precision.

Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 123 of 559

• Flashbangs: Flashbangs are used as a distraction device in order to disorient or divert the suspect’s attention away from officers. This can allow officers to gain safer access to a high- risk situation, giving extra time to assess and analyze existing threats. This can prevent injury to officers and community members.

These devices can often lead to a safer resolution and allow officers to take subjects into custody without additional force. There is no known alternative to a flashbang when it is necessary.
• Tear gas: Tear gas is a less lethal use of force option used to address violent or riotous crowds when there is a risk of physical safety. They are also used to safely extract a suspect from a fixed location or safely detain a suspect who poses a risk of violence to officers or the public. Tear gas allows peace officers to deploy a less lethal chemical agent into a structure or vehicle. This can afford peace officers an added option to avoid lethal force encounters. When these items are reasonable and necessary for use, there is no other alternative.
• 40mm projectile launchers: The 40mm launcher affords the ability to use less lethal chemical agents and impact munitions. This allows officers to confront a potentially armed or dangerous suspect from a greater distance and provides an alternative option to deadly force when reasonable. When necessary, there is no alternative to these less lethal weapon systems.

The Campbell Police Department continues to carefully assess what equipment is needed to protect the public and officers when resolving critical incidents, such as active shooter response, apprehending violent offenders, hostage rescue, and barricaded subjects, among others. Certain equipment is also beneficial in providing information and creating cover, distance, and time that help to improve the decision-making process during critical incidents. This allows responding officers to take in and evaluate the totality of the circumstances, which results in increased safety and reduced risk for everyone involved.

In general, all the equipment listed in the report is highly specific in its use and is not carried day‑to‑day (the exception being carbines, unmanned aerial / ground systems or the 40mm less lethal launchers which are deployed in the field with personnel). Other items below may be used a few times a year, if at all, and their deployment requires departmental notifications. More information about the frequency of use for various types of equipment is provided in the 2025 annual report.

For the above reasons, staff is requesting that the City Council adopt a resolution finding that each type of military equipment listed in the 2025 Military Equipment Annual Report has complied with specified standards for approval.

Renewal of Ordinance:

AB 481 also requires the City Council to annually review its ordinance containing its Military Equipment Use Policy and vote on whether to renew the ordinance. As set forth above, the Campbell Police Department continues to carefully assess what equipment is needed to protect the public and officers when resolving critical incidents, such as active shooter response, apprehending violent offenders, hostage rescue, and barricaded subjects, among others. Certain equipment is also beneficial in providing information and Item 8.4
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 124 of 559

creating cover, distance, and time that help to improve the decision-making process during critical incidents. This allows responding officers to take in and evaluate the totality of the circumstances, which results in increased safety and reduced risk for everyone involved. For these reasons, the Military Equipment Use Policy, as reflected in Ordinance 2280 – AB 481 Military Equipment, is necessary, and staff is requesting that the City Council renew the same.

FISCAL IMPACT
The acquisition of new or replacement equipment or items meeting the reporting requirements of AB 481 are funded in accordance with the Campbell Police Department Policy 709 and with the approval of the City Council.

The City Council’s determination of whether each type of military equipment listed in the annual report has complied with specified standards for approval and the City Council’s adoption of an ordinance to renew Ordinance 2280.

AB 481 Military Equipment has no new costs created by the action as existing equipment is already budgeted

ALTERNATIVES
Provide other direction on use of specific military equipment.

Military Equipment Report
2025
Executive Summary
On September 30, 2021, California Governor Gavin Newsom approved Assembly Bill 481 requiring California law enforcement agencies to obtain approval of a Military Equipment Use Policy by their applicable governing body (City Council) prior to taking certain actions related to the funding, acquisition, or use of “military equipment”.

Assembly Bill 481 allows the governing body to approve the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment within its jurisdiction if the equipment meets specified standards. The Military Equipment Use Policy and an Annual Military Equipment Use Report is subject to annual review to affirm the criteria outlined in Assembly Bill 481 have been met.

The format of this report was crafted in a manner that conforms to the statutorily required annual report pursuant to California Government Code section 7072(a) to include the following information:

1.) A summary of the “military equipment” uses and the purpose;

2.) A summary of any complaints or concerns concerning the “military equipment”;

3.) The results of any internal audits, information on any violations, and actions taken in response;

4.) The total annual cost for each type of equipment;

5.) The quantity possessed of each type of equipment;

6.) The intent to acquire additional equipment and quantity sought.

Unless otherwise noted the funds for the equipment, staff costs, training costs, or costs for the use of the equipment, is from the approved existing budget.

Military Equipment Report
2025
Introduction
The Campbell Police Department is committed to the protection of lives and property by working with our community and providing professional and responsive police services. To accomplish our mission effectively and safely, the Campbell Police Department possesses and utilizes certain specialized equipment (“military equipment”) to safeguard the citizens of Campbell and protect our first responders. While our inventory of “military equipment” varies, the mere possession of this equipment does not warrant its use. The merits and a totality of the circumstances of each unique incident are considered before “military equipment” is utilized in compliance with department policy and law.

The term "military equipment," as used in Assembly Bill 481, does not necessarily indicate the equipment is, or has been used, by the military. Many items defined as "military equipment" by the bill are more often used by law enforcement to preserve life and enhance public and officer safety while remaining prepared to handle the various lethal and non-lethal challenges facing our communities. The Campbell Police Department's use of “military equipment” is consistent with overall best practices employed by police departments throughout the country.

Items used by the Campbell Police Department that are considered “military equipment” under Assembly Bill 481 include, but are not limited to, emergency response equipment such as command vehicles and armored rescue vehicles, less-lethal 40mm projectile launchers, precision weapons such as rifles, unmanned aircraft systems, and other select items. The continued access to, and use of, this equipment is vital in ensuring our officers have the appropriate tools necessary to de-escalate situations, preserve life, ensure safety for all people, and protect civil liberties.

This Annual Military Equipment Use Report outlines a summary of the equipment usage guidelines, inventory, fiscal impact, complaints, and reported community concerns for calendar year 2025 (January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025).

City Council Report
DATE: May 19, 2026
TITLE: Review of Draft Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) and Direction on Final Revisions
RECOMMENDED ACTION:

That the City Council receive and review the Draft CAAP; receive and consider public comments provided during the review period; and provide direction to staff on modifications to be incorporated into the final CAAP to be returned for adoption.

BACKGROUND
The City of Campbell is committed to addressing climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing resilience against climate impacts, as outlined in the adopted 2040 General Plan, which mandates the preparation of a Climate Action Plan:

COS-10.c Prepare a Climate Action Plan that establishes GHG reduction targets that are consistent with Statewide GHG reduction goals and includes an implementation program to achieve the reduction targets. Periodically review and update the Plan as necessary to achieve the GHG reduction targets specified in the Plan.

Reflecting this commitment, the City Council identified Sustainability as a priority for FY 2024 through FY 2026, with the creation of a CAAP included in the respective Work Plans.

On February 20, 2024, the City Council approved a contract with Rincon Consultants to prepare a CAAP that included:
• An existing conditions analysis of all existing climate-related or environmental policies and programs
• A community greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory and municipal operations GHG inventory
• A climate change and vulnerability assessment (CCVA)
• A future forecast of emissions through 2045, taking into account the impacts of State regulations and anticipated population and job growth • Strategies and actions that, if implemented, would help the City reach the State’s climate targets
Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 166 of 559

A key pillar in the community engagement strategy was to stand up a Community Advisory Committee to be a working group throughout the CAAP process. The Committee met in June 2024, September 2024, January 2025, March 2025, and June 2025—convening at key points throughout the process to provide input and also to help amplify community outreach efforts.

There were four phases of community outreach throughout the planning process. The first, taking place in July/August 2024, was focused on identifying existing conditions in the City, understanding the community’s concerns, and generating awareness of the project. The second phase, conducted with the support of several CBOs (Silicon Valley Youth Climate Action, Breathe California, and Acterra) in October/November 2024, was focused on setting the community’s vision for the future of Campbell. The third phase, taking place in March 2025, was focused on prioritizing the strategies and actions being considered as part of the plan. The fourth and final phase was publishing a Draft CAAP in December 2025/January 2026 to gather public comment on the plan.

An internal working group of City staff across departments was established at the start of the project. This group participated in several interdepartmental meetings in February 2025 to discuss and refine the proposed measures and actions before going to the community to help prioritize. The working group was again engaged to review an administrative draft of the plan before the Draft CAAP was published.

Staff presented progress to Council through the project:
• April 16, 2024: Kick-off Meeting to introduce the consulting team, workplan, and major milestones
• September 17, 2024: Review the GHG Emissions Inventory results • November 6, 2024: Review the CCVA results and community engagement efforts • March 18, 2025: Study session to discuss scenarios, measures, and actions This report represents the next step in the process: presenting a Draft CAAP to the City Council along with public feedback and requesting direction on any final modifications to incorporate into the final plan for adoption.

DISCUSSION
Purpose of the Draft CAAP
The Draft CAAP is a strategic roadmap for reducing GHG emissions and increasing community resilience to climate hazards such as extreme heat, flooding, drought, and air quality degradation. The plan integrates mitigation and adaptation through a systemsbased framework and provides:
• A long-term vision for climate action in Campbell
• Emissions reduction targets aligned with State goals
• A comprehensive set of measures and actions across four systems Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 167 of 559

• An implementation framework that emphasizes flexibility and feasibility It is important to note that the Draft CAAP is intended to be a roadmap and guidance document to achieving Climate goals and does not bind the City to specific initiatives or funding. Implementation actions in the plan would be decided on an annual basis as part of the City’s budgeting and workplan development process. Any new specific policy would undergo a public process and brought to Council for review. Many actions will also rely on coordination with regional agencies, community-based organizations, and other partners, and would be developed collaboratively to ensure alignment, feasibility, and shared goals.

Structure of the Draft CAAP
The Draft CAAP is organized around four interconnected systems, combining GHG mitigation with adaptation (preparing for extreme heat, poor air quality, drought, and/or riverine flooding):

1. Transportation System – focused on vehicle miles traveled (VMT), mode shift, and electrification

2. Building System – focused on electrification, efficiency, and climate-resilient retrofits

3. Urban Ecosystems & Sustainable Food – tree canopy, flood resilience, waste reduction, and food systems

4. Social & Governance Systems – focused on community capacity, equity, education, and interagency coordination
Within each system, the plan includes:
• Measures – long-range goals to reduce emissions or improve resilience • Actions – specific policies or programs the City could pursue to help achieve each measure
• Implementation considerations – impact, implementation lead, partnerships, timelines
If implemented together, these actions would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 54,000 MTCO2e by 2030 and 213,000 MTCO2e by 2045, aligning with the State’s targets established by SB 32 and AB 1279.

The Draft CAAP also includes personal climate action and resilience roadmaps that highlight steps individuals can take to reduce their carbon footprint and prepare for future climate impacts. While the communitywide and municipal GHG inventories follow established global protocols, they do not capture the full lifecycle emissions associated with the production and transport of the goods and services we consume, as many of those emissions occur outside the City’s boundaries. Accordingly, the measures and actions in the CAAP focus on areas within the City’s regulatory authority and operational Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 168 of 559

influence, while the personal roadmaps provide guidance for residents and businesses on actions they can take individually to further reduce emissions and build resilience.

Public Review and Community Feedback
Public comments received on the Draft CAAP reflected strong support for the CAAP and offered the following recommendations and considerations:

Implementation
• Strong support for the overall vision of the CAAP and for its implementation. • Recommendation to include regular status updates and progress tracking for the CAAP
• Requests for more ambitious provisional greenhouse gas reduction targets • Appreciation for the scientific explanations and graphics that helped make the plan accessible and understandable
• Appreciation for the inclusion of a consumption-based inventory and personal climate action roadmaps
• Concerns about the affordability of building and vehicle electrification without financial assistance or subsidies.

Building System
• Support for actions that reduce overall energy demand in addition to building electrification
• Encouragement for smaller, more resource-efficient homes and significant on-site solar generation as part of new development
• Encouragement to explore passive cooling strategies for refrigeration systems, server rooms, and other energy-intensive facilities
Transportation System
• Emphasis on the importance of being able to bike safely throughout the City, including protected bike lanes, safe crossings, and connections to transit Urban Ecosystem
• Requests to discourage the use of artificial turf due to environmental and health concerns
• Support for planting only native or edible food-producing plants that support biodiversity
• Support for circular economy strategies, including eliminating food waste • Strong support for urban ecosystem measures that protect and restore riparian corridors and creek systems
Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 169 of 559

• Requests to address light pollution to protect ecosystems and reduce unnecessary energy use
• Encouragement to reduce consumption of animal products through City food procurement policies and public education on food and waste reduction • Desire for a more ambitious tree canopy coverage goal • Encouragement to prohibit plastic take-out containers and other single-use plastics Social & Governance System
• Requests to expand City communications and emergency messaging to include Mandarin and Hindi
• Encouragement for a fundamental shift in community culture and behavior toward a holistic approach to sustainability
Council Direction
Staff is seeking City Council direction on the following:

1. Level of Ambition. At the March 18, 2025, Council Meeting, Council provided direction to take a conservative approach to measures and actions, focused on supportive actions rather than punitive, while still trying to align with State targets.

The more ambitious actions were removed from the Draft Measures and Actions following Council’s direction. By focusing more on education and incentives, the project team was able to develop a roadmap that still achieves State targets.

2. Changes to Measures or Actions. The measures and actions in the Draft CAAP have been refined based on staff feedback and represent a less stringent implementation timeline based on the likely availability of staff and financial resources in the near term. However, the City has also received numerous public comments (Attachment 2) encouraging the city to adopt more aggressive implementation actions. Based on a consideration of this feedback, Council may provide further direction on the measures and actions presented.

3. Implementation & Reporting. It is staff’s recommendation to regularly update the GHG inventory and report out to Council progress on CAAP implementation. Given the resources required to conduct a GHG inventory, staff recommends conducting an update every 2-3 years, rather than annually. This cadence will provide more time to focus on implementation, understanding that emissions do not change drastically year-to-year. Staff is seeking input from Council on what level of reporting and at what cadence they would like to receive updates. This direction can be added into the final plan prior to adoption.

FISCAL IMPACT
Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 170 of 559

The Draft CAAP does not have a direct fiscal impact at this time. The plan serves as a framework to guide future actions. Any specific projects, staffing, or capital investments would be brought forward separately through the annual budgeting process.

NEXT STEPS
Following Council direction:
• Staff and the consultant team will revise the Draft CAAP • A Final CAAP will be brought forward for City Council adoption in June.

GLOSSARY
A
Active Transportation – A means of transportation that is powered by human energy, for example walking, biking, or rolling.

Adaptation – Adjustment or preparation of natural or human systems to a new or changing environment which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities.

Assembly Bill (AB) 1279 – California Climate Crisis Act, which codified the GHG emissions reduction goals of achieving carbon neutrality by 2045, by expanding the definition of carbon neutrality to reducing direct emissions 85 percent below 1990 levels and removing the remaining 15 percent of emissions though carbon sequestration and other technologies. The 2022 Scoping Plan Update, adopted in December 2022, provided the pathway for reaching the State’s AB 1279 goal.

Assembly Bill (AB) 2684 – Extreme Heat Planning, which requires local governments to update their safety elements to mitigate heat-related risks. Additionally, AB 2684 mandates regular reviews to integrate the latest data on extreme heat hazards, bolstering California's efforts to adapt to rising temperatures.

Atmosphere – The envelope of gases surrounding the Earth; the gases that make up the atmosphere primarily include nitrogen (78 percent) and oxygen (21 percent), as well as argon, helium, carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor in trace amounts.

B
C
California Air Resources Board (CARB) – The lead agency for climate change programs that also oversees all air pollution control efforts in California to attain and maintain health-based air quality standards.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) – A naturally occurring gas and a by-product of burning fossil fuels and biomass that contributes to the trapping of heat in the Earth’s atmosphere.

Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (CO2
e) – A metric measure used to compare
the emissions from various greenhouse gases based upon their GWP.

Carbon-neutrality/Net-Zero Emissions – Balancing anthropomorphically generated emissions by removing GHGs from the atmosphere in a process known as carbon sequestration.

Climate – The average of weather patterns over a long period of time (usually 30 or more years).

Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP) – Community’s framework for improving our health and environment, limiting our global impact by reducing GHG emissions, and increasing our resilience in the face of climate change.

Climate Change – A change in the average conditions — such as temperature and rainfall — in a region over a long period of time.

Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment (CCVA) – Identifies how exposed, sensitive, and adaptable a system or community is to climate hazards. It informs adaptation planning by highlighting high-risk areas and guiding resilience strategies.

Climate Hazard – A potential occurrence of climate related physical events or trends that may cause damage and loss.

CLIMATE VULNERABILITY AND

GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS
Campbell faces increasing extreme weather
events including extreme heat, stronger storms,
and poor air quality from regional wildfire.

Climate impacts in Campbell are summarized in the graphic below.

The 2022 GHG inventory identified transportation (57%) and building natural gas use (28%) as the largest emission sources. A consumptive-based inventory (which includes emissions generated outside of Campbell to make the things we buy) also highlighted emissions from food, goods, and travel.

Extreme Heat
Extreme heat can be dangerous for
everyone, but especially seniors, young
children, disadvantaged individuals, and
individuals with health conditions like
asthma or diabetes. Extreme heat can also
affect the stability and effectiveness of
certain medications, posing additional
health risks for vulnerable populations
during prolonged heat events. Extreme
heat can lead to more frequent use of air
conditioning, raising expenses and
potentially causing power outages,
which can in turn worsen health risks.

Additionally, wildlife and plants may
experience heat stress, affecting
ecosystem health in Campbell.

Riverine Flooding
Riverine flooding caused by extreme
precipitation events is a hazard along the Los
Gatos Creek, particularly affecting Timber Cove
Mobile Home Park, affordable housing units,
residential roads, Highway 17, and bridges.

Flooding can lead to increases in infectious
diseases like Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus,
and cause mold growth in buildings, which can
impact health.

Air Quality Degradation
Air quality declines from regional wildfires,
vehicle and lawn equipment emissions, and
wood burning can cause respiratory illnesses
and worsen existing health conditions,
especially for seniors, young children, and
disadvantaged individuals. People with
existing health conditions are at higher risk of
respiratory and heart problems. Poor air
quality can also harm ecosystems and make
parks and outdoor areas unsafe for the
community.

Drought
Drought can place a significant financial strain
on vulnerable populations, like disadvantaged
individuals, due to higher water rates and
difficulties in accessing clean water.

Additionally, drought affects ecosystems,
leading to stressed vegetation and increased
plant deaths. This can reduce the quality and
benefits of parks and natural spaces like the Los
Gatos Creek Trail, impacting the overall health
and well-being of the community.

Tuesday, May 19, 2026 183 of 559

IMPLEMENTATION AND MONITORING
The Campbell CAAP will be implemented through coordinated efforts with community-based organizations and agencies in Campbell. Monitoring and reporting are central to accountability. The City will produce annual progress reports and update its GHG inventory and the CAAP every 3–5 years, using performance metrics to prioritize cost-effective, high-impact actions. Through education, engagement, and partnerships, the City will empower residents, businesses, and organizations to participate in climate action, identify barriers, and foster long-term support for sustainability initiatives.

STRATEGIES AND MEASURES
The CAAP emphasizes cost-effective strategies with long-term benefits.

While some actions require upfront investment, many offer lifecycle savings and resilience dividends. The plan also positions Campbell to compete for state and federal funding, including climate bonds and grant programs.

The CAAP organizes actions into four systems:

1. Urban Ecosystems and Sustainable Foods – Tree planting, composting, water conservation.

2. Social and Governance – Resilience hubs, climate communication, equity-focused outreach.

3. Buildings – Electrification, retrofits, renewable energy adoption. 4 Transportation – EV adoption, transit improvements, active mobility infrastructure.

Together, these measures are projected to reduce 57,677 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MT CO₂e) by 2030 and 212,086 MT CO₂e by 2045.

This is roughly the same as removing 12,400 and 45,600 gasoline-powered cars from the road for one year, respectively.

PERSONAL CLIMATE ACTION AND

RESILIENCE ROADMAPS
To empower residents, the CAAP includes Climate Action and Resilience Roadmaps tailored to individual actions. These one-page guides offer practical steps and resources for:
y Electrifying homes: Switching to efficient electric appliances, accessing rebates, and improving insulation.
y Driving electric: Choosing EVs, installing chargers, and using incentive programs.
y Staying safe during heat and smoke events: Tips for cooling homes, protecting air quality, and accessing community resources. y Eating sustainably: Reducing meat consumption, composting, and supporting local agriculture.

These roadmaps help residents understand their personal impact and contribute to citywide climate goals.

1. INTRODUCTION
The City of Campbell's Climate Action and
Adaptation Plan (CAAP) presents a detailed
approach to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions and preparing for extreme weather
events to foster a healthier and more resilient
future. This is an evolving document that serves
as a guide to enhance Campbell’s ongoing
efforts to mitigate GHG emissions in line with the
2040 General Plan and the State’s targets set by
both SB 32 and AB 1279. It emphasizes practical,
measurable, and time-bound strategies, providing
a framework for implementation, monitoring, and
adjustment to best serve the community.

Even if emissions were brought to zero today,
Campbell would still face a changing climate.

Public health, infrastructure, and ecosystems
are experiencing impacts due to increased heat,
poor air quality, seasonal flooding, and prolonged
drought. These challenges will particularly impact
vulnerable populations and may lead to increased
health risks, financial strain, and damage to
buildings, roads, and natural habitats.

The CAAP was developed through local
research and community feedback, and it will
be implemented using the same collaborative
approach. During its development, special
attention was given to hearing from community
members most at risk from extreme weather
events throughout the community engagement
process. The strategies in this CAAP went through
multiple iterations with both City staff and the
CAAP Community Advisory Committee (CAC) to
ensure they are community-focused, practical, and
aligned with existing City priorities and efforts.

Implementation will require careful collaboration
across City staff and funding and resource allocation will be part of the City’s annual budgeting process. Throughout the implementation of this CAAP, the City of Campbell will continue to work towards a healthier and more resilient community.

By adopting this plan, the City of Campbell seeks to protect public health and the environment, foster a green economy, and improve the quality of life for residents and visitors amidst a changing climate, while also supporting business retention and attraction through collaboration with the business community and promoting practices that enhance long-term economic resilience. Through dedicated efforts to cut GHG emissions, adapt to extreme weather events, promote renewable energy, preserve habitats and biodiversity, and facilitate equitable access to sustainability benefits, Campbell positions itself as a leader in climate action and adaptation. 7 Item 10.1

CAAP VISION
The Campbell community envisions a
decarbonized future where fossil fuels
have been replaced by renewable energy,
advanced green technologies, and
sustainable urban planning practices.

Campbell is a place where infrastructure
is built with resiliency in mind, where
resources are managed wisely, and natural
ecosystems are preserved. Vulnerable
communities—such as young children,
older adults, disadvantaged individuals,
and individuals with health conditions—
are prioritized, helping them adapt and
thrive in a changing climate.

At the core of this CAAP is the
engagement of the entire Campbell
community, fostering inclusivity
throughout the process. The plan aims to
create multi-benefit solutions, for example,
green spaces that serve as both cooling
centers and community gathering areas.

The CAAP also encourages behavioral
changes. Adding bike lanes and improving
sidewalks can help promote more active
modes of transportation. It promotes
holistic thinking and education, leading
with community values to create
actionable initiatives.

The sun's energy drives Earth's climate. When solar radiation enters the atmosphere, some is reflected into space, while the rest is absorbed by the Earth's surface, warming it. The warmed surface then emits this heat back towards the atmosphere.14 While some of the heat escapes into space, GHGs trap a portion of it, creating a natural greenhouse effect is essential for maintaining temperatures that support life on Earth.15 However, rising levels of GHGs trap more heat near the Earth's surface, increasing global average temperatures and driving climate change.16
Human-caused climate change is well understood and widely accepted in the scientific community, with over 97 percent of climate scientists agreeing that the planet is warming and human activities are the primary cause.17 Scientists study historical atmospheric records by extracting ice cores—sometimes from depths over a mile.18 These ice layers contain particles like dust, ash, pollen, trace elements, and sea salts that were present in the atmosphere at different times.18 As the ice compresses over time, it traps tiny bubbles of the atmosphere, including GHGs like carbon dioxide and methane.18 These air pockets fossilize, providing samples of what the atmosphere was like when each layer formed.18 By analyzing them, scientists can measure past concentrations of GHGs.18 Collecting cores from various locations around the world allows researchers to study regional climate variations and distinguish these patterns from global climate trends.18
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), GHG levels are now higher than at any point in the past 400,000 years. This sharp rise is due to human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes.19 As a result, global surface temperatures have increased more rapidly since 1970 than in any other 50-year span in at least the last 2,000 years.20
Rising global temperatures are intensifying wildfires, increasing the frequency of extreme heat events, altering precipitation patterns, affecting water supplies, raising sea levels, and changing ocean temperatures and chemistry.21 Climate change is already impacting both human and natural systems worldwide. Scientists have documented shrinking ice sheets, warming and acidifying oceans, reduced snow cover, and rising global temperatures and sea levels.22 These impacts pose significant risks and have led to widespread adverse effects on nature and people, disproportionately affecting vulnerable communities who have historically contributed the least to current climate change.22 Although climate change is a global issue, the effects are experienced intensely at the local level, impacting various aspects of society such as health outcomes, availability of natural resources, infrastructure durability, emergency response capabilities, tourism, and the frequency and intensity of disasters.

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY FRAMEWORK
In response to a changing climate, California has emerged as a global leader in climate action, setting numerous ambitious targets and strategies for reducing GHG emissions. Key legislation currently driving statewide GHG reductions includes Senate Bill (SB) 32, Assembly Bill (AB) 1279, SB 379, and AB 2684. Detailed descriptions of these regulations can be found in Appendix A – Climate Change Legislation.

State Bill 32 (2016)
SB 32 established a new statewide objective to cut GHG emissions by 40 percent below the levels recorded in 1990 by the year 2030. This goal builds on the 2020 target set by the Global Warming Solutions Act. In 2017, the California Air Resources Board updated the Scoping Plan, outlining a strategy to meet the 2030 emissions reduction target.

Assembly Bill 1279 – California Crisis Act (2022)
AB 1279 establishes bold climate objectives for California, requiring the state to attain carbon neutrality by 2045 or earlier. It also mandates a reduction in GHG emissions to at least 85 percent below the levels of 1990 by the same deadline. This legislation authorizes the California Air Resources Board to devise and execute methods for capturing and removing carbon dioxide, aiding the state's aim to achieve netnegative emissions after 2045.

State Bill 379 (2015) and Assembly Bill 2684 (2024)
SB 379 and AB 2684 both mandate that cities and counties revise their planning frameworks to tackle climate change-related hazards. SB 379 requires local governments to incorporate climate adaptation and resilience strategies into their general plans, evaluating vulnerabilities to various climate impacts like wildfires and flooding. AB 2684 enhances these requirements by specifically addressing extreme heat, obligating local governments to update their safety elements to mitigate heat-related risks. Additionally, AB 2684 mandates regular reviews to integrate the latest data on extreme heat hazards, bolstering California's efforts to adapt to rising temperatures.

2. COMMUNITY

ENGAGEMENT
Engaging the community and stakeholders was a
critical part of developing the CAAP. Community
feedback gathered during this process laid the
foundation for a more equitable approach with
intentional efforts to include Campbell’s diverse
populations. This input helped shape the plan’s
vision and tailor the goals and strategies to the
community’s needs.

ENGAGEMENT APPROACH
The outreach approach was designed to
be inclusive and offered a diverse means of
participation. The activities planned were
intended to be:
∙ Educational and meaningful
∙ Consistent and transparent
∙ Accessible and engaging
∙ Relevant in focus and purpose
∙ Inclusive, both culturally and geographically
∙ Coordinated
Coordination with community-based organizations (CBOs), the CAC, and other stakeholders helped the City of Campbell reach beyond the traditionally engaged interested parties and gather input from a broader segment of the community. The following engagement goals were developed early in the process to guide the engagement and outreach efforts throughout the CAAP development process:
∙ Conduct a robust engagement and outreach process that meets people where they are, prioritizing equity and input from vulnerable populations, especially youth. ∙ Educate the community on climate hazards and climate change impacts and share how the CAAP will work to improve community resilience and address the underlying issues of climate change impacts and the interconnectedness of benefits. ∙ Engage a broad and diverse audience for the CAAP, reaching as many parts of the community as possible.
∙ Empower community ownership and increase support for future adaptation projects. ∙ Ensure outreach communications distinguish the CAAP purpose and focus, facilitating community buy in from the start while highlighting and achieving state requirements.
∙ Leverage work and outreach events with other City of Campbell departments and key regional and local partners to address resilience issues while avoiding duplicative efforts and reducing community involvement fatigue.
∙ Present data and science-based information with straightforward language and through storytelling techniques to ensure that materials are accessible, clear and engaging, and contribute to the community dialogue and decision-making process. 14 Item 10.1

Community-Based Organization Support
An important element of the Campbell CAAP
Community Engagement Strategy was
collaborating with and supporting CBOs. The
City of Campbell disbursed a total of $14,000
and provided engagement toolkits to three
CBOs: Acterra, Breathe California, and Silicon
Valley Youth Climate Action (SVYCA). An
estimated 3,700 residents were reached through
engagement led by these CBOs. These groups
completed the following engagement activities
in support of the CAAP:
∙ Youth training on climate action planning
best practices and civic engagement.
∙ Tabling at community events, like the
Campbell Farmer’s Market, to share
information and gather feedback.
∙ Social media outreach.
∙ Mini focus groups to gather more
in-depth feedback.

Community Advisory Committee
The CAC helped to shape the CAAP by providing
feedback throughout the planning process.

The CAC was the first line of community review
throughout the CAAP development process by
providing input on the CAAP primary vision,
helping to identify vulnerable populations,
identifying implementation strategies, and
refining the surveys and other engagement
events to help tailor the approach to the
Campbell community. This committee was
developed to be representative of the greater
Campbell community and included eight
community members. The CAC met four times
via online meetings and once in person.

Online Engagement
The first survey collected information about
the community’s experiences and interests
related to sustainability. The survey received
470 responses in English and Spanish.

These responses were used to develop a
set of preliminary priorities and draft high
impact actions.

The second community survey asked
community members to weigh in on potential
actions for reducing emissions and building
resilience and prioritize strategies. Results
incorporate feedback from 363 English and
Spanish speakers. The majority of survey
respondents own a home, have lived in Campbell
for over 10 years, speak English, and fall into the
40-64 age range. Most respondents have noticed
changes in weather patterns and feel the city
is somewhat prepared in case of a natural
disaster. The community is most concerned
with extreme heat, drought, wildfires, and
impacts to health and basic needs. Respondents
were familiar with climate resilience and
adaptation strategies and have implemented
some practices to make themselves and their
communities more resilient. When asked
about actions the City could take, respondents
strongly supported installing solar and battery
storage in new buildings, offering incentives and
educational resources to help residents switch
from gas to electric appliances, expanding
EV infrastructure, and improving stormwater
systems. High support was also shown for
planting more trees, enhancing walkability
and bikeability, and creating resilience hubs for
extreme weather events. When asked to rank
strategies, the most desired were making new
buildings more resilient, improving existing

buildings (particularly through electrification), and making neighborhoods more walkable and bike friendly. Increasing EV adoption and conserving water were also ranked highly.

Highlights from the surveys can be found in Figure 4.

Pop-Up Events and Conversations
To engage with the community effectively, thirteen pop-up events were held, reaching over 5,000 community members. At these events, City of Campbell staff or CBO partners hosted a booth to provide information about the CAAP process, solicit feedback, and promote the online surveys. These events were held at Farmers Markets, community festivals, and a Campbell Union High School District Career/ Volunteer Fair. The City of Campbell extends its sincere thanks to Acterra, Silicon Valley Youth Climate Action (SVYCA), and Breathe California. These three CBOs played a vital role in connecting with residents and ensuring broad community participation in the planning process.

Two community conversation events were held to dive deeper into the priorities, concerns, and desires from the community. One of these events was a mini focus group hosted by Acterra held with low-income residents, the other a discussion with City of Campbell staff and seniors during a Kiwanis Club meeting. These conversations provided valuable opportunities for community members to share their perspectives in greater depth, allowing the project team to gain meaningful insights that helped shape the CAAP to better reflect local priorities and needs.

Integrating Community Feedback
Community feedback influenced various aspects of the CAAP development, as described below:
y Climate Vulnerability Mapping. Enhanced desktop mapping in Section 3 Climate Vulnerability, based on feedback from the CAC.
y Greenhouse Gas Emissions Analysis. Section 4 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Analysis includes a Consumptive-Based Inventory, developed based on CAC input.
y Individual Action Roadmaps. Section 7 Personal Climate Action and Resilience Roadmaps added based on input from the CAC and community survey feedback. y Resilience and Mitigation Strategies. Section 6 Climate Resilience and Mitigation Strategies refined based on CAC feedback and community survey input. Look for the ★ icon to identify community-informed measures.

Figure 4 Key Survey Findings
Respondents thought that the most important
climate benefits were improving air and water
quality, followed by improving disaster
preparedness, safety, and resilience.

Respondents showed strong support for improving energy
performance in existing buildings, with 75% favoring incentives to reduce the cost of switching to electric appliances.

Respondents showed strong support for increasing urban tree cover; planting more trees on City-owned propoerty received the highest approval (84%), with additional support for maintaining existing trees (77%) and requiring tree planting in new developments (75%). 73% of respondents have observed changes in
the weather patterns, environment, or climate.
71% of respondents expressed support for
installing EV chargers at public locations like
libraries and parks, and 73% approved of
making it easier for developers to add
charging infrastructure.

Over 80% of respondents favored creating
a year-round Resilience Hub in collaboration
with the County Library District to provide
refuge during extreme heat, poor air quality,
and flooding events.

According to the IPCC, human-induced climate change is already intensifying weather globally.19 Like many parts of California, Campbell is experiencing some of these impacts and facing a range of climate-related hazards. The primary climate hazards identified in Campbell are extreme heat, air quality degradation due to wildfire, riverine flooding, and drought. An overview of Campbell’s exposure to these hazards can be found in Figure 5 below. These hazards pose risks to residents’ health and well-being, as well as to the community’s infrastructure and natural resources. Climate projections for each hazard are based on Silicon Valley 2.0, which utilizes data from Cal Adapt, as recommended by the California Adaptation Planning Guide.20,21 Led by Santa Clara County’s Office of Sustainability and funded by California’s Strategic Growth Council, Silicon Valley 2.0 is a regional initiative that helps local governments and agencies collaboratively plan for nearand long-term climate challenges.21

3. CLIMATE

VULNERABILITY
The two primary goals of the CAAP are to
reduce Campbell’s GHG emissions and to
prepare to adapt for the impacts of climate
change. Developing effective policies
and adaptation strategies to protect the
community’s health, safety, and economic
resilience requires a clear understanding of
local climate hazards and vulnerabilities. This
section evaluates Campbell’s vulnerability
and capacity to adapt. The methodology is
available in Appendix C – Climate Change
Vulnerability Assessment.
21 Item 10.1

Figure 5 Climate Hazards in Campbell
Extreme Heat
An extreme heat day is when temperatures are higher than usual, specifically above 96°F for Campbell. An extreme heat event is when there are five or more of these hot days in a row. Santa Clara County has had six extreme heat events in the past, with the worst ones in 2000 and 2006. By the end of the century, Campbell could see a big increase in extreme heat days, going from four to 24 per year if emissions stay high.

Riverine Flooding
Riverine flooding occurs when rivers overflow their banks due to heavy rain. Critical facilities and areas in and around the city are at risk from major flooding events that happen once every 100 or 500 years. Flooding along Los Gatos Creek in Campbell are anticipated to get worse due to more intense and frequent heavy rain events.

Drought
A drought is a long period with little to no rain, leading to water shortages. In Campbell, droughts will become more common due to higher temperatures and less rainfall. By mid-century, we can expect extreme dry spells every six to eight years, and by the end of the century, they could happen every three to four years.

Air Quality Degradation
Higher temperatures, increased humidity, decreased airflow, and wildfires can all reduce air quality. Ozone levels rise with higher temperatures and strong sunlight, and when this ground-level ozone forms, it becomes a lung-irritating pollutant that makes it harder to breathe. Climate change will lead to poorer air quality in Santa Clara County, with more extreme heat and wildfire events contributing to higher pollution levels. Even though Campbell is not directly affected by wildfires, wildfires in surrounding areas will impact its air quality.

VULNERABLE

COMMUNITY MEMBERS
All members of the community are vulnerable to
the impacts of climate change; however, some
populations face significantly greater vulnerability
due to factors such as geographic exposure,
underlying health conditions, or limited access to
resources. By identifying these at-risk groups, the
City of Campbell can better prioritize interventions,
allocate resources efficiently, and implement
targeted strategies to reduce climate impacts.

The identification of vulnerable populations in
Campbell was informed by multiple regional
and local sources including Silicon Valley 2.0, the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s Equity
Priority Communities, and the San Francisco
Bay Conservation & Development Commission
community vulnerability map. The Campbell CAAP
CAC reviewed the draft climate vulnerability map
created using these data sources. The committee
confirmed initial findings and identified an
additional climate-vulnerable area along Los
Gatos Creek (Census Tract 5065.02), citing a
high concentration of affordable housing units
and the presence of unhoused individuals in
the area. Figure 6 below illustrates the climatevulnerable census tracts in Campbell used in the CAAP analysis.

CLIMATE IMPACTS
Climate change will impact various aspects
of the Campbell community including
public health and safety, buildings and
properties, transportation, and ecosystems.

Campbell faces several public health and
safety challenges due to extreme heat, poor
air quality, riverine flooding, and drought.

Vulnerable populations, including seniors,
young children, disadvantaged individuals,
and those with health conditions, are at
higher risk of health issues and financial
burdens. Additionally, these environmental
factors can impact buildings, transportation
infrastructure, and ecosystems, leading to
increased maintenance costs, deteriorating
road conditions, as well as vegetation
and wildlife stress and mortality. Figure
7 summarizes the key climate impacts in
Campbell. For more information on these
impacts, refer to Appendix C – Climate
Change Vulnerability Assessment.

Figure 7 Climate Impacts in Campbell
Extreme Heat
Extreme heat can be dangerous for
everyone, but especially seniors, young
children, disadvantaged individuals, and
individuals with health conditions like
asthma or diabetes. Extreme heat can also
affect the stability and effectiveness of
certain medications, posing additional
health risks for vulnerable populations
during prolonged heat events. Extreme
heat can lead to more frequent use of air
conditioning, raising expenses and
potentially causing power outages,
which can in turn worsen health risks.

Additionally, wildlife and plants may
experience heat stress, affecting
ecosystem health in Campbell.

Riverine Flooding
Riverine flooding caused by extreme
precipitation events is a hazard along the Los
Gatos Creek, particularly affecting Timber Cove
Mobile Home Park, affordable housing units,
residential roads, Highway 17, and bridges.

Flooding can lead to increases in infectious
diseases like Lyme Disease and West Nile Virus,
and cause mold growth in buildings, which can
impact health.

Air Quality Degradation
Air quality declines from regional wildfires,
vehicle and lawn equipment emissions, and
wood burning can cause respiratory illnesses
and worsen existing health conditions,
especially for seniors, young children, and
disadvantaged individuals. People with
existing health conditions are at higher risk of
respiratory and heart problems. Poor air
quality can also harm ecosystems and make
parks and outdoor areas unsafe for the
community.

Drought
Drought can place a significant financial strain
on vulnerable populations, like disadvantaged
individuals, due to higher water rates and
difficulties in accessing clean water.

Additionally, drought affects ecosystems,
leading to stressed vegetation and increased
plant deaths. This can reduce the quality and
benefits of parks and natural spaces like the Los
Gatos Creek Trail, impacting the overall health
and well-being of the community.

4. GREENHOUSE GAS

EMISSIONS ANALYSIS

22. The community inventory also includes municipal emissions within each sector, so the municipal and community inventories are not additive.

A key aspect of climate planning is creating a
GHG emissions inventory for specific time periods,
such as a calendar year. This inventory measures
emissions from various sectors (e.g., energy,
transportation) and helps guide the development
of the CAAP by identifying the largest sources of
emissions. As part of the CAAP process, the City
of Campbell completed a 2022 GHG emissions
inventory for the community (2022 Community
Inventory), which includes emissions from
activities within the city's boundaries during 2022.

The City also completed an inventory for municipal
activities (2022 Municipal Inventory), which focuses
specifically on emissions from city-owned facilities
and municipal operations.22
While traditional GHG inventories focus on emissions within a community’s boundaries (where the City of Campbell has direct control), a consumptive-based model considers emissions from the entire lifecycle of activities within the community, including energy use and embedded emissions from goods, services, food, and travel, regardless of where those emissions occur. This CAAP also includes a Consumptive-Based Inventory. While this inventory overlaps the Community Inventory and Municipal Inventory in some areas, it provides a separate understanding emissions contributions. The Consumptive-Based Inventory is especially helpful for community members to understand how their purchases affect global GHG emissions.

GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS INVENTORY
GHG inventories are created by pinpointing the sources and stores of GHGs within a specific geographic area (e.g., Campbell city limits) and gathering activity data for each sector. Different activities release different gases—methane, for example, traps 84-87 times more heat than carbon dioxide over two decades. Once the activity data has been gathered, an emissions factor is applied to convert all GHGs into one unit of measure:
carbon dioxide equivalent
(CO2
e). GHG inventories are
often reported in metric
tons of carbon dioxide
equivalent (MT CO2
e). One
MT CO2
e is about the same
volume as a full-sized
school bus. That is roughly
the same as the emissions
produced by driving a
typical gasoline-powered
car for about 2,500 miles,
roughly the round-trip
between Campbell and
Seattle, Washington.

This is illustrated in
Figure 8. A summary
of the GHG Inventory is
included below, and the
methodology and full
results can be found in
Appendix D – Greenhouse
Gas Analysis Report.

Community Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory
The 2022 Community Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory provides the current GHG emissions estimates that follow the ICLEI U.S. Community Protocol for Accounting and Reporting Greenhouse Gas Emissions Version 1.2 (Community Protocol) and current best practices for GHG accounting. The Community Protocol serves to guide the measurement and reporting of GHG emissions in a standardized way and is used by other jurisdictions to support their own inventory, forecast, and climate action planning efforts. The Community Protocol also includes steps to evaluate the relevance, completeness, consistency, transparency, and accuracy of data used in the GHG inventory. The Community Inventory sectors are defined as follows:
y On-road Transportation includes on-road passenger vehicle miles traveled (VMT), on-road commercial total VMT, on-road bus total VMT, on-road passenger electric vehicle miles traveled (EVMT), on-road commercial EVMT, and on-road bus EVMT.
y Off-road Equipment includes off-road diesel, off-road gasoline, and off-road natural gas vehicles and equipment.
y Building Natural Gas includes residential natural gas, commercial natural gas, and natural gas leakage.23
y Building Electricity includes residential electricity, commercial electricity, direct access electricity, and transmission and distribution (T&D) losses associated with electricity use.24,25
y Solid Waste includes landfill methane and process emissions. y Wastewater includes stationary combustion, process Nitrous Oxide (N2O) emissions, effluent discharge fugitive N2O, electricity use, electricity use T&D, NG Use, and NG leakage.
y Water includes imported and purchased water.

23. Natural gas leakage refers to the unintended release of methane from pipelines, appliances, or infrastructure. It is included because leaked methane is a potent greenhouse gas, contributing significantly to the overall climate impact of natural gas use in buildings.

24. Direct access electricity refers to electricity purchased directly from energy service providers rather than through a regulated utility. This option is typically available to large commercial or industrial customers and can affect how electricity use is tracked and reported.

25. Transmission and distribution (T&D) losses represent the energy lost as electricity travels through power lines and transformers from generation sources to end users. These losses are included to account for the full environmental impact of electricity consumption.

As illustrated in Figure 9, on-road transportation is the largest contributor of GHG emissions at 57 percent, followed by Building Natural Gas at 28 percent. Off-road Equipment (e.g., lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and chainsaws), Building Electricity, and Solid Waste each contribute five percent of the Community GHG emissions, and both Water and Wastewater contribute less than one percent of the Community GHG Emissions.

Municipal Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory
The 2022 Municipal Inventory provides Campbell
with current GHG estimates that follow the Local
Government Operations Protocol and current best
practices for GHG accounting at the municipal level.

The Municipal Inventory sectors are defined as follows:
y Transportation includes on-road vehicle fleet diesel, on-road vehicle fleet gasoline, off-road vehicle fleet
diesel, and off-road vehicle fleet gasoline.
y Facility Natural Gas includes natural gas
combusted in buildings and facilities as well as the
associated natural gas leakage.
y Facility Electricity includes electricity use in
buildings and facilities, electricity for streetlights
and traffic signals, and T&D losses associated with
this electricity.
y Solid Waste includes landfill methane and process
emissions.
y Wastewater includes stationary combustion,
process N2O emissions, effluent discharge fugitive
N2O, electricity use, electricity use T&D, natural gas
use, and natural gas leakage.
y Water includes imported and purchased.

As seen in Figure 10, Transportation is the largest
contributor of Municipal GHG Emissions at 67 percent,
followed by Infrastructure Natural Gas at 23 percent,
Solid Waste at eight percent, and Infrastructure
Electricity at two percent. Both Water and Wastewater
contribute less than one percent of the Municipal GHG
Emissions.

Consumptive-Based Inventory
The Campbell Consumptive-Based Inventory considers
the emissions from the entire lifecycle of activities
within the community. This includes not only the energy used in homes, businesses, and vehicles, but also the
emissions from goods and services used in Campbell,
regardless of where they were manufactured. For this
reason, the Consumptive-Based Inventory is larger
and offers a more comprehensive view of Campbell’s
emissions. The Consumptive-Based Inventory was
calculated using the CoolClimate Calculator, developed
by the CoolClimate Network at the University of
California, Berkeley.26 This calculation incorporates
lifecycle analysis data for each product category,
economic data (including household purchases), and
survey results.

The Consumptive-Based Inventory Categories are
as follows:
y Travel takes into account the emissions from the
entire lifecycle of various transportation modes
utilized by Campbell residents, including personal
vehicles, buses, trains, and air travel.
y Home covers emissions from building a household
and the yearly use of electricity, natural gas,
and water.
y Food includes emissions from food production, distribution, consumption, and disposal. Food emissions are classified into categories such as meat, dairy, fruits and vegetables, cereals, and other products.
y Services emissions come from various sources, including household maintenance and repair, healthcare, information and communication, vehicle services, organizations, charities, and more.

26. CoolClimate Calculator. N.d. https://coolclimate.berkeley.edu/calculator. Accessed May 2025. y Goods includes emissions from household items, including clothing, furniture, and other goods such as entertainment, personal care, stationery, reading materials, and medical supplies.

Figure 11 provides a summary of the consumptive emissions in Campbell.

Travel accounts for 44 percent of emissions, followed by Home at 28 percent, Food at 12 percent, Services at 8 percent, and Goods at 7 percent.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Forecast and Targets
Greenhouse Gas
Emissions Forecast
A GHG emissions inventory establishes
a baseline for a specific year, but annual
GHG emissions fluctuate due to factors
like population growth, increases in
jobs, technological advancements,
and policy changes. A GHG emissions
forecast predicts future changes
in GHG emissions by considering
expected community growth and
transformations. By comparing the
GHG emissions forecast with reduction
targets, we can identify the gap
that needs to be addressed through
local GHG reduction policies. This
section provides an estimate of future
emissions for Campbell for the years
2030, 2035, 2040, and 2045 under two
scenarios: business-as-usual (BAU) and legislative-adjusted.

Business-As-Usual Forecast
This scenario projects future GHG emissions based on the continuation of 2022 consumption trends and anticipated changes in population, housing, employment, and transportation within Campbell. It does not account for any GHG reductions from state regulations.

Legislative-Adjusted Forecast
This scenario estimates how current state legislation will reduce GHG emissions compared to the BAU scenario. It reflects the state's efforts to help reduce local GHG emissions to meet state goals. This target considered the more accurate view of future GHG emission trends and highlights Campbell’s responsibility for reducing GHG emissions through local and regional initiatives. This adjusted forecast takes into account legislative programs related to transportation, waste, and energy that are expected to reduce GHG emissions in specific sectors throughout California.

These forecasts are summarized in Figure 12. By 2045, under BAU conditions, total GHG emissions are projected to hit 272,446 MT CO2 e, an increase of
62,799 MT CO2
e from 2022 levels. For comparison, 272,446 MT CO₂e is roughly equivalent to the annual emissions from 58,000 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles. State legislation is expected to reduce emissions by 59,160 annually by 2045, about the same as removing 12,600 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles from the road each year.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Targets
Setting targets helps guide the City towards deep decarbonization in line with the scientific consensus. Thoughtful and long-term planning will allow the City to consider lifecycle financial impacts, avoid unnecessary costs, and find cost effective decarbonization strategies. For example, encouraging residents to transition directly from air conditioning to heat pumps, rather than installing AC now and replacing furnaces later, can reduce future financial burdens. While more detailed financial analysis will be needed, setting clear goals helps the City make smarter, more efficient investments over time. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) provides guidance on health, air quality monitoring, and environmental justice with the goal to protect the public from the harmful effects of air pollution and develop actions to fight climate change. CARB advises aiming to exceed SB 32's goal of reducing GHG emissions by 40 percent below 1990 levels and working towards carbon neutrality by 2045. Targets should be provisional until feasible GHG reduction measures are analyzed.

Achieving these targets requires significant changes in energy use, transportation, and living/building practices. Campbell's provisional targets are:
y Reduce GHG emissions by 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. y Progress towards carbon neutrality by 2045.

The GHG emissions reduction gap is the difference between the Legislative-Adjusted Forecast and these targets. Table 1 provides a summary of the GHG emission reduction targets in mass emissions, which refers to the total quantity of GHGs released into the atmosphere from various sources, expressed in MT CO2
e. As demonstrated in Figure 13,
Campbell will need to reduce 54,732 MT CO2
e by 2030, and 213,285 MT CO2e
by 2045 in order to meet State targets. To contextualize these reductions, 54,732 MT CO2
e is roughly equivalent to the annual emissions from 11,800 gasoline-powered cars, and 213,285 MT CO2
e is comparable to the annual
emissions from 46,000 gasoline-powered cars.

Incremental Costs
When discussing costs, it is important to specify the difference between how much a strategy costs overall and what the incremental or marginal cost is. The incremental or marginal cost is the difference in cost between the new action and the old or standard action. For example, purchasing a new electric vehicle could cost $30,000, which could be considered a high cost. However, the marginal cost of purchasing an electric vehicle versus purchasing a new internal combustion vehicle may be only a few thousand dollars or less after rebates and incentives. This incremental cost can then be further offset by considering the lifecycle cost savings including lower fuel costs and lower maintenance costs. It is important to consider what the incremental/marginal costs are for each strategy by keeping in mind what the alternative costs are. In many cases, the difference is negligible.

Financing and Funding Availability
One of the major financial tools available to make large investments in infrastructure, vehicles, or buildings is financing. Financing allows for the ability to leverage the time

5. COST

EFFECTIVENESS
The costs of climate action and adaptation
plans can vary widely depending on the specific
measures taken, how they are implemented,
and the funding strategies used. For example,
expenses can range from high-cost projects
like building bike lanes to more affordable, but
labor-intensive, efforts like City of Campbell staff
conducting outreach and educational campaigns.

Cost Considerations
For each strategy, the cost description focuses
on both internal costs (municipal-focused) and
external costs (community-focused) and provides
insight into the variability of these costs, including
the primary variables that determine cost
effectiveness. These considerations include:

Upfront versus Lifecycle Costs
When discussing how much a strategy or action
costs, it's important to differentiate between
the upfront costs versus the lifecycle costs of
purchasing, operating, maintaining, and ultimately
disposing of an item. For example, LED lightbulbs
may be more expensive upfront compared to an
incandescent bulb, but their lifecycle costs are
lower, providing a significant return on investment.

value of money and put future expected money flows to
use today. For example, a solar array may cost $20,000
and result in an energy bill that is $200 less per month than before installation. The cost of the solar array could be considered high. However, a solar array can also be
financed with a loan, which might require a $150 monthly payment, resulting in a net monthly savings of $50. Under this scenario the solar array does not carry a high cost, rather it provides overall savings. The ability to finance can make seemingly high-cost investments low to no cost over time, though the City will need to balance the time and resources it takes to set up and service these loans over time and prioritize the most impactful strategies.

Understanding the ranges of cost savings and revenue
streams, and how those costs and revenues accrue
over time into a payback or return on investment
(ROI) calculation, are prudent factors to structuring
partnerships, engaging interested parties, and making
optimal financial decisions. For example, energy
efficiency retrofits can generate cost savings of more
than 30 percent for 15 to 20 years. If external partners are involved, such as with an energy savings performance
contract, cities may not need to provide any upfront
capital, but the project’s cost savings would accrue with a private third party and be lost by the City. For example, an electrification project to convert a city facility to an all-electric system may cost about $5 million but reduce long-term maintenance costs and significantly expand energy conservation efforts.

Projects like this can offer financial and environmental returns over time.

Cities must consider the estimated ROI, how project costs and revenues balance out over the useful life of the project, and whether they are willing to forego long-term cost savings or revenue generation capacity by partnering with a private third party.

In addition, cities are often able to fund significant infrastructure projects with grants or other funding sources. Large infrastructure projects like bike lanes or pedestrian bridges can be funded through state and federal grant monies. While matching funds or other costs can be incurred by the city, these funding strategies can significantly reduce the upfront costs of larger infrastructure projects.

What Are the Costs?
The CAAP strategies have been selected to minimize upfront costs and maximize long-term benefits including cost savings. Many measures aimed at reducing GHGs not only cut down on emissions but also offer long-term cost savings for both the City of Campbell and the community throughout the lifespan of the CAAP. Although some initiatives require higher initial investments, they often result in operational efficiencies, reduced energy consumption, and avoidance of future expenses. The primary strategies and their associated monetary costs and benefits are summarized here.

Adaptation
Once the CAAP is adopted, it will align with California’s goals for reducing GHG emissions and funding strategies, thereby positioning Campbell to be competitive for state grant
funds. California’s recently passed Proposition 4 introduces a $10 billion climate bond dedicated to financing projects related to water, wildfire prevention, green energy, and other climate initiatives. Additionally, the CAAP emphasizes proactive, long-term investments, encouraging the City
of Campbell and community to spend a bit more now to
achieve greater savings in the future. For instance, investing in climate smart strategies like tree planting, solar panel installation, and battery back-up requires initial expenditures today to prepare Campbell for extreme heat events and
rising energy demands, which would otherwise necessitate costly emergency responses or infrastructure upgrades.

The World Resources Institute estimates a benefit cost ratio between 2:1 and 10:1 for such investments, meaning that for every dollar spent on resilience, $2 to $10 in benefits could be seen. The financial and social advantages of the CAAP, along with additional co-benefits to public health and the direct impact on reducing GHG emissions, mean that the benefits of CAAP implementation may outweigh the costs.

Building Electrification
The CAAP measures emphasize a transition to electric appliances when existing equipment is due for replacement or reaches the end of its useful life, as well as phasing out home appliances powered by natural gas. This approach not only minimizes waste and avoids additional manufacturing emissions but also allows for cost savings.

Beginning January 1, 2027, the Bay Area Air District will enforce new regulations targeting gas appliances, specifically water heaters and furnaces. These rules mandate that newly installed appliances must meet zero-emission standards for nitrogen oxides (NOx). Given that these requirements will be implemented regardless of Campbell’s actions, it is crucial for the City of Campbell to proactively educate and prepare the community for this transition. By informing residents about the upcoming changes and encouraging early adoption of compliant appliances, as described in the paragraph above, Campbell can help mitigate potential disruptions and financial burdens associated with retrofitting existing systems.

Although the total upfront cost of a heat pump water heater is higher than that of a gas equivalent, the incremental costs, or the difference in cost between the two, are only slightly higher. These incremental costs can be offset by leveraging available federal, state, and regional incentives, ultimately making the installation of a heat pump water heater more affordable than a gas water heater. Market data shows a steady increase in consumer adoption of heat pump technologies, driven by improved affordability and availability. In California, the market share for heat pump space heaters has grown from five percent in 2009 to 55 percent in 2023, while heat pump water heaters increased from six percent to 16 percent City Of Campbell - Climate Action And Adaptation Plan

over the same period.27,
28 By prioritizing such time-of-replacement
measures, Campbell could position itself for sustainable growth, aligning financial savings with environmental resilience.

Electric Vehicles and Mobility
While upfront electric vehicle costs are generally higher than their internal combustion engine counterparts, these costs are dropping. Low-cost passenger EVs are increasingly available, and their costs are being further offset with State incentives for both vehicles and charging infrastructure.

Over the long term, however, EVs can generate substantial savings.

Research conducted by MIT found that EVs offer the lowest lifecycle costs while also providing the lowest GHG emissions.29 Furthermore, the health benefits to a community can be significant. A study recently found that for every additional 20 EVs per 1,000 people there was a 3.2 percent drop in the rate of asthma-related emergency visits.30
Expanding alternative mobility can be some of the highest cost strategies undertaken in the CAAP. While building new infrastructure in California can be expensive and time consuming, the benefits can also be significant. A study completed by the National Institute of Health found that for every $1 invested in trails and bike infrastructure, the community received $2.90 in direct medical benefits. Additional savings can be found through increased economic activity. Studies have found that reducing travel lanes and increasing bike and pedestrian safety increased retail employment by 4 percent compared to the control area.31

Urban Ecosystems
Tree planting and composting are two of the
most cost-effective and impactful strategies for
enhancing urban ecosystems and building climate
resilience. While these strategies require upfront
investment, their long-term environmental, health,
and economic benefits can far outweigh the
initial costs.

Tree planting costs can vary depending on species,
size, and location, but estimates typically range
from $300 to $400 per tree, including planting
and initial maintenance.32 Ongoing care—such
as watering, pruning, and pest management—
adds to the cost, but the return on investment is
substantial. According to the U.S. Forest Service’s
i-Tree analysis, every dollar invested in urban
forestry can yield up to $5.82 in benefits, including
reduced energy use, improved air quality,
stormwater management, and increased property
values.33 Tree-lined streets have been shown to
increase retail activity and improve mental health
outcomes. Trees also play a critical role in reducing
the urban heat island effect, which is especially
important as extreme heat events become more
frequent.

Composting programs also require initial setup
costs, such as purchasing bins, establishing
collection systems, and developing public education campaigns. However, these costs are often offset by reduced landfill tipping fees, lower GHG emissions, and improved soil health. Composting also supports local agriculture and tree health by returning nutrients to the soil, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers.

The Cost of Doing Nothing
Predicting the exact financial impact of climate change on the world— and specifically on the City of Campbell and its community—is a complex challenge. Despite the difficulties in fully quantifying the costs of mitigation and adaptation, economists and scientists globally agree: the costs of inaction are already substantial and will continue to rise the longer we delay action.

Current figures are already alarming. Globally, it is estimated that without immediate action, catastrophic or extreme climate impacts are likely by 2050, with economic losses potentially reaching 19 percent of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP). 34 Climate change could cause up to $38 trillion in global financial damage each year by 2050. To put this into perspective: saving $1 billion at a rate of $100 per day would take over 27,000 years—saving one trillion would take more than 2.7 million years.

In the United States alone, the Global Change Research Program estimates that extreme weather events cost the country approximately $150 billion annually, or over $17 million per hour. These figures do not include loss of life, healthcare expenses, or damages to ecosystem services.

In October 2024, the U.S. Department of the Treasury released a report titled The Impact of Climate Change on American Household Finances, revealing that 13 percent of Americans experienced economic hardship due to disasters or severe weather events in the previous year. Additionally, recent analyses indicate that for every 1°C increase in global temperatures, there could be a 12 percent loss in global GDP, with the most severe losses occurring within just six years of the temperature rise.

The consequences are not theoretical. In California, the recent Los Angeles fires are expected to result in $250 billion in damage. Even a modest 1 percent reduction in the likelihood of such an event could save Californians $2.5 billion.

This section outlines strategies, measures, and specific actions the City of Campbell will take to achieve significant emissions reductions and boost resilience, helping Campbell reach its climate goals. While the plan is focused on how the City of Campbell will drive change in each system, the community's role is essential. A detailed guide for households and businesses is available in the Personal Climate Action and Resilience Roadmaps.

Through these collaborative efforts and ongoing commitment, a foundation for resilience will be established, making Campbell a sustainable and thriving community for everyone.

The measures and actions highlighted in the following sections are the highest priority actions in the CAAP. For the full list of measures and action and implementation plan, refer to Appendix E – Measures, Actions, and Implementation Plan.

Strategy Framework
The climate action and adaptation strategies in this CAAP offer a comprehensive implementation path, with funding and resource needs to be integrated into the City’s annual budgeting process. As seen in Figure 14, below, measures and supporting actions are organized into four systems that, if implemented together, would help Campbell achieve its climate goals. The CAAP outlines actionable and achievable GHG emissions reduction policies aimed at meeting Campbell's 2030 target (40 percent below 1990 levels) and making significant progress towards the 2045 carbon neutrality goal. Effective climate action and adaptation planning must be grounded in principles that ensure long-term success. Six foundational Climate Policy Pillars guides Campbell’s approach:
feasibility, education, equity, funding, partnerships, and structural change. These pillars served as a framework throughout the development of climate measures, helping to evaluate each initiative through a consistent and values-driven lens. Each action in the plan is aligned with one or more of these pillars, as detailed in Appendix E – Measures, Actions, and Implementation Plan.

Additionally, the strategies address climate vulnerabilities in Campbell and include adaptation measures and supporting actions to enhance the City of Campbell's and the Campbell community's resilience to climate impacts. The CAAP will be updated over time, with additional actions added as needed to advance the established measures.

These regular updates will ensure the CAAP remains effective in tackling new challenges, leveraging opportunities for innovation, and meeting updated local, state, or federal climate goals. Periodic updates also allow for the integration of lessons learned from past actions, enabling the adoption of more impactful and equitable strategies to further progress on the established measures.

STRATEGIES
Building a resilient and decarbonized community
requires rethinking the City's systems to
better serve the community. Preparing for
extreme weather events will require leadership
from Campbell's municipal operations and
community-wide actions. By reducing GHG
emissions, promoting sustainable practices,
and enhancing resilience to climate hazards,
the quality of life can be protected now and for
future generations. Every resident, business, and
organization has a crucial role in this collective
effort to safeguard the environment, prioritize
equity, and adapt Campbell to the challenges of
climate change.

evidence and calculation methods of the GHG
emissions reduction, refer to Appendix F – Measure
Substantial Evidence Report. While all measures
benefit the community, they do not all result in
equal GHG emissions reductions. Some measures
are considered "supportive" and do not directly
lower emissions on their own; however, by aiding
the overall strategy, they may collectively enhance
the total emissions reductions achieved.

URBAN ECO-SYSTEMS AND SUSTAINABLE FOODS
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Benefits
Campbell’s parks and green spaces are not only sources of enjoyment for the community but also powerful mechanisms for capturing and storing carbon. The trees, plants, and soil throughout Campbell can pull out and sequester carbon dioxide from the air. By enhancing carbon sequestration through planting more trees and applying compost to soils, Campbell can increase sequestration levels to combat climate change. Additionally, Campbell will create a circular economy around organics like yard waste and food scraps by keeping them out of landfills, where they generate methane (a potent GHG), and instead generate compost to amend soil and increase carbon sequestration.

Resilience Benefits
Enhancing the urban ecosystem also provides significant resilience benefits. Measures and actions within this system will expand the urban forest, conserve and reuse water, and enhance natural ecosystems. Expanding Campbell’s tree canopy will provide shade, reduce temperatures, and improve air quality. Additionally, applying compost to soil will improve soil health by increasing nutrient availability and supporting microbial life, as well as increasing water retention.

Maintaining open spaces will support biodiversity and provide recreational areas for the community.

California’s SB 1383 plays a pivotal role in increased statewide composting efforts. This legislation mandates that organic waste, including food scraps and yard trimmings, must be diverted from landfills by residential and commercial generators. By doing so, SB 1383 aims to reduce GHG emissions and promote the development of composting infrastructure.

In addition to state regulations, research has shown that green space has significant positive impacts on mental and physical health and wellbeing, highlighting the importance of parks, community gardens, and recreational areas that are accessible to all.

Community Priority Action
Informed by extensive community input gathered through CAAP Survey #2 and ongoing discussions, the CAC has identified the following priority action:

UE-2.1 Prioritize planting 40 trees annually in climate vulnerable areas, as defined in Campbell’s Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment, with the lowest tree equity score, along safe routes to school, and near bus stops. Partner with a community-based organization to host a community planting event to promote community building and the Campell Climate Action and Adaptation Plan.

This action addresses the increasing threat of extreme heat events driven by climate change by enhancing urban canopy cover, which provides cooling and sequesters carbon dioxide. It also advances environmental equity by focusing resources on the neighborhoods most in need. Additionally, it strengthens the City of Campbell’s collaboration with CBOs, reinforcing shared ownership of climate resilience and CAAP implementation.

This initiative is designated as a high-priority action and will be implemented during the early stages of CAAP implementation, with funding and resource needs to be incorporated into the City’s annual budgeting process.

Metrics
GHG Reduction: 9,221 MT CO2e by 2030; 13,629 MT CO2e by 2045.

This is roughly equivalent to removing 2,000 gasoline-powered cars from the road for one year by 2030 and taking 2,900 cars off the road for one year by 2045.

BUILDING SYSTEM
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Benefits
Campbell’s Building System approach focuses on providing decarbonized energy to residential and commercial buildings to utilize increasingly carbon-free and renewable energy. Electrifying buildings in Campbell involves transitioning natural gas appliances (water heaters, furnaces, and cooking appliances) to efficient electric alternatives. When combined with carbon-free electricity, all-electric buildings eliminate GHG emissions from the building system, effectively decoupling development and energy needs from GHG emissions.

Resilience Benefits
The transition to electric buildings not only reduces GHG emissions but also enhances resilience to climate change and improves health.

Replacing natural gas in homes and businesses improves indoor air quality, reducing incidences of asthma and other respiratory issues.

With higher rates of air quality impacts from smoke and extreme heat, maintaining high-quality indoor air is critical. All-electric buildings paired with solar and battery storage create microgrids, which can operate independently during emergencies and reduce energy costs over time.

Campbell’s proactive measures to prepare its residents will help save time and money in the future. The identified measures and actions are low upfront cost for the community while incentivizing and requiring low-cost efforts that will save residents money over the long term by aligning with upcoming state and regional requirements.

Metrics
GHG Reduction: 21,976 MT CO2e by 2030; 75,150 MT CO2e by 2045. This is roughly equivalent to removing 4,700 gasoline-powered cars from the road for one year by 2030 and taking 16,100 cars off the road for one year by 2045.

TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Benefits
The single largest source of GHG emissions in the City of Campbell (and throughout California) is vehicle use, primary from single-occupancy passenger cars. By creating a multimodal network that prioritizes moving people around the city efficiently over single-occupancy car use, Campbell can reduce GHG emissions and improve quality of life.

Valley Transit Authority (VTA) provides the transit system in Campbell.

The Winchester Transit Center is a key hub, offering connections to various bus routes and the VTA light rail system. The Green Line light rail serves Campbell, providing a convenient link to downtown San Jose and other parts of Santa Clara County. Additionally, VTA operates numerous bus routes that traverse Campbell, providing residents with public transportation for commuting, shopping, and other activities.

The majority of single-occupancy car trips in Campbell are between two and four miles and are for the primary purpose of shopping.35 Walking is the second most popular mode for shopping trips. Most trips originating in Campbell end in Santa Clara and Los Gatos, including work commutes which are typically eight to 16 miles. High VMT neighborhoods include Campbell Village and downtown.

Healthy, walkable neighborhoods are achievable in Campbell, where residents can walk or bike to amenities and reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT). For trips that cannot be completed by walking, biking, or transit, Campbell will continue to support the transition to electric or zeroemission vehicles to leverage carbon-free electricity.

Resilience Benefits
Active and shared transportation enhance resilience by reducing traffic congestion, lowering emissions, improving public health, strengthening community connections, and providing economic benefits. Active transportation will improve health by encouraging Campbell’s community

35. Replica. (2025). Replica Places: Fall 2025 model run for Campbell, California. to move more and benefit from better air quality due to fewer fossil fuel combustion vehicles. Electrifying on-road transportation and off-road equipment also enhances resilience by reducing dependence on volatile fossil fuel supplies, lowering emissions that exacerbate climate impacts, and enabling operation during emergencies when fuel distribution may be disrupted.

Metrics
GHG Reduction: 26,480 MT CO2e by 2030; 123,306 MT CO2e by 2045. This is roughly equivalent to removing 5,700 gasoline-powered cars from the road for one year by 2030 and taking 26,400 cars off the road for one year by 2045.

How do I eat more sustainably?
Eat Plant-Forward
∙ Plant based foods have significantly
lower emissions on a per calorie basis.
∙ Explore plant-forward recipes, shifting
meat from the main dish to a side dish
or swapping for plant-based alternatives,
while increasing veggies, beans, and
whole grains.
∙ Swap milk for oat, soy, or almond
alternatives.
∙ Try “Meatless Mondays” or other
meat-free days, and opt for sustainably
sourced options when eating meat.
∙ Removing meat from your diet could
reduce your household emissions about
6 percent, from 46 to 43 tons CO2
e
per year. That’s like cutting out the
emissions from driving over 7,400 miles
in a gasoline-powered car each year.

Reduce Waste
∙ Focus on reducing food waste for
significant emissions reductions.
∙ Plan meals and make a shopping list.
∙ Store food properly to extend its
shelf life.
∙ Use leftovers creatively in new meals.

Choose Local and Seasonal Produce:
∙ Shop at farmer’s markets.
∙ Look for seasonal fruits and vegetables.
∙ Support local farms and producers.

Compost Organic Waste
∙ The City of Campbell has three waste streams: landfill, recycling, and compost. To support proper sorting and reduce environmental impact, set up a compost bin for kitchen scraps and other organic waste that can be placed in your green waste organics bin for weekly collection or composted at your own home. This helps divert materials from landfills, lowers methane emissions by preventing food from decomposing without oxygen, and contributes to a more sustainable waste system.

How to Electrify Your Home
Why Switch to Electric?
∙ Electrification will save you money on your energy bills when you switch to a high performance heat pump system.
∙ Using fossil fuels for cooking and heating can greatly contribute to local air pollution, which in turn leads to climate change and health problems.
∙ In 2024, Campbell introduced an Air Quality Ordinance that bans nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions from appliances and equipment in new buildings and major renovations.
∙ Electrifying your home can lead to a cleaner, healthier environment and potentially lower energy bills due to more efficient appliances and better energy rates
Steps to Electrify Your Home
∙ Assess Current Appliances: Identify aging gas appliances to replace. ∙ Research Incentives: Look for available rebates and discounts at campbellca.gov/electrify or Theswitchison.com and find out if you are eligible.
∙ Leverage support: Utilize the planning and support programs from Silicon Valley Clean Energy.
∙ Plan Upgrades: Prioritize which appliances to replace first. ∙ Hire Contractors: Find licensed professionals for installation. ∙ Obtain Permits: Apply for necessary permits through the City of Campbell’s streamlined electrification process.
∙ Install Appliances: Replace gas appliances with electric ones. ∙ Avoid an Electrical Panel Upgrade: Many homes can electrify on panels of 100amps or less! Using circuit sharing, smart circuits, or a subpanel can help save space on your existing panel.
∙ Improve Insulation: Enhance home insulation for better energy efficiency.
∙ Monitor Energy Usage: Use smart meters to track and optimize energy consumption.
∙ Stay Informed: Keep up with new incentives and technologies.

Induction Cooking Tips
∙ Induction stoves are fast, efficient, and safer than gas. ∙ Cookware compatibility: Cast iron, stainless steel, and any pan with a magnetic base will work. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pan, it’s induction-ready!
∙ Benefits: Induction stoves offer precise temperature control, easy cleanup, and improved indoor air quality by eliminating combustionrelated pollutants.

Replacing natural gas appliances with electric ones could reduce your household emissions about 8 percent, from 46 to 42 tons CO2 e per year.

That’s like cutting out the emissions from driving over 9,900 miles in a gasoline-powered car each year.

Stay Cool and Keep Your Home Safe From Smoke

39. California Department of Aging. 2025. https://www.aging.ca.gov/Heatwave_Resources/. Accessed April 2025.

40.California Air Resources Board (CARB). 2025. Smoke Ready California. https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/smokereadyca. Accessed April 2025.

Why are these protective actions so important?
y Extreme temperatures brought on by heat waves are hazardous for many people, increasing the likelihood of heat-related illnesses, particularly among older adults, young children, those with medical conditions, and individuals without air conditioning.39 y Wildfires emit various harmful air pollutants, including cancer-causing substances and tiny particles that can worsen existing health issues and increase the risk of heart attacks or strokes. The primary concern from wildfire smoke for short-term exposures (hours to weeks) is particulate matter (PM), especially PM2.5. These particles are small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream, with well-documented effects on heart and lung health.40
How to Protect Yourself and Your Home from Low
Air Quality
y During periods of low air quality, stay indoors and close windows and doors.
y Use a California Air Resources Board-certified air filter and run continuously on a high setting.
y Avoid activities such as smoking that create particles indoors. y Use a damp cloth or mop to trap particles that settle indoors. y Wear N95 masks when traveling or evacuating.
y Avoid using wood burning fireplaces.

How to Stay Cool During a Heat Wave
y Use energy efficiently:
y To prevent electricity shortages and ensure everyone stays cool, California encourages residents to reduce energy consumption (especially between peak hours of 4 p.m. and 9 p.m.) to avoid power outages.
y An effective strategy is to “over cool” your home overnight and in the morning, so it remains cool throughout the day while using less energy during peak hours.
y Stay Hydrated: Drink water regularly, even if you don't feel thirsty. Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and sugary drinks as they can cause dehydration. y Limit Physical Activity: Try to avoid strenuous activities during the hottest part of the day, typically between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. 85 City of Campbell Climate Action and Adaptation Plan | Social and Governance System Item 10.1
Tuesday, May 19, 2026 264 of 559
y Never Leave People or Pets in Cars: Do not leave
anyone or any pets in a parked car, as temperatures can rise quickly.
y Use Air Conditioning: Whenever possible, stay in
air-conditioned spaces to keep cool. Upgrading to a
new heat pump provides both efficient heat and air
conditioning with one unit.
y Cool Off with Water: Take cool baths or showers or use moist towels to cool down.
y Wear Light Clothing: Choose lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothes. Cotton is a good option as it allows sweat to evaporate.
y Keep Babies Cool: Babies are sensitive to heat, so avoid wrapping them in blankets or heavy clothing.
y Protect Your Head: Wear a wide-brimmed hat or use an
umbrella to shield your head from the sun.
y Use Sunglasses and Sunscreen: Apply sunscreen with at least SPF 15 and wear sunglasses when outside.
y Take Breaks in the Shade: Find shady spots to rest and cool down when you're outdoors.
y Check on Vulnerable Individuals: Regularly check on
elderly family members, friends, or neighbors to ensure they are staying cool and hydrated.

How to Access Support
y Sign up for Flex Alert notifications from your utility provider (Silicon Valley Clean Energy)
y Access Santa Clara Cooling Centers, such as County
Libraries.
y Find Heat Preparation information from Heat Ready CA. y Utilize information from resources like the Bay Area Air District, which provides Air Quality Index, Air Pollution, and Meteorology information based on measurements
taken at stations in the Air District’s air quality
data network.
y Download California Smoke Spotter, the California Air Resources Board’s first mobile app that combines the
latest fire mapping and smoke forecasting technology.

How to Switch to an Electric Vehicle
Why Switch to an Electric Vehicle (EV)?
y Save Money Over Time: EVs typically have lower fuel and maintenance costs compared to gas-powered vehicles. Over the lifetime of the vehicle, this can result in significant savings.
y Cleaner Air, Healthier Communities: EVs produce zero tailpipe emissions, helping reduce local air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.
y Incentives Make It Easier: State and local programs offer rebates and tax credits that can significantly reduce the upfront cost of EVs and charging equipment.
y Replacing your gasoline-powered car with an EV could reduce your household emissions about 26 percent, from 46 to 39 tons CO2e per year. That’s like avoiding 6 round-trip flights from San Francisco to London every year.

Steps and Incentives to Switch to an EV
y Evaluate Your Driving Needs: Consider your daily mileage, charging options, and vehicle size requirements.
y Explore EV Models: Research available EVs that fit your lifestyle and budget. Visit CarbonCounter.com to compare the cost-effectiveness and environmental impact of different EV models. This interactive tool helps you make informed decisions based on real-world data. y Check for Incentives: Find available rebates at campbellca.gov/ electrify, such as:
y Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE): Offers rebates for EVs and home charging equipment.
y Plan for Charging:
y Home Charging: Install a Level 2 charger at home for faster charging.

The City of Campbell provides a permit handout for EV charger installations.
y Public Charging: Use apps like PlugShare or ChargePoint to locate nearby stations.
y Rebates: SVCE and PG&E offer rebates for charger installation and panel upgrades.
y Buy or Lease Your EV: Choose the best financing option for your situation.
y Register and Insure: Complete registration and update your insurance policy for your new EV.

with state legislation and lays the groundwork
for future carbon neutrality by 2045. While the
CAAP is structured to meet both short- and
long-term objectives, it recognizes uncertainties
related to technological advancements, new
state legislative mandates, and climate science.

Regular monitoring and updates will ensure the
City of Campbell adapts to new developments,
refining actions as necessary. To support
successful implementation, funding and resource
needs will be incorporated into the City’s annual
budgeting process.

Ongoing Community Education
and Outreach
Ongoing community outreach for the CAAP is
crucial for its successful implementation. The City
of Campbell will need to actively and continuously
engage with residents, businesses, CBOs and
other stakeholders to empower the community to
take climate action as well as identify any issues
or hurdles to implementation that could hinder
the effective adoption of measures and actions.

By addressing these barriers head-on through
education and collaboration, solutions can be
tailored to meet the unique needs of partnerships,

CAAP Implementation Roles
To maximize implementation of the CAAP following its adoption, the City of Campbell has developed an implementation plan (Appendix E).

This plan outlines the key steps, responsible City staff, and timelines to achieve the goals of the CAAP. The Community Development Department’s Sustainability Division will serve as the overall lead, coordinating implementation and efforts and acting as the primary point of contact for both internal staff and the community. This Community Development Department will also play a central role in facilitating crossdepartmental collaboration and ensuring consistent oversight throughout the implementation process. Each action in the CAAP is assigned an implementation lead in Appendix E, clearly designating the department or division responsible for execution. Identified implementation leads include:
y City Manager’s Office
y Community Development Department
y Finance Department
y Police Department
y Public Works Department
y Recreation and Community Services Department
As outlined in Measure SG-3, the City will also collaborate with community-based organizations to support and enhance implementation efforts. The City’s Finance Department will play a critical role in evaluating the financial feasibility of proposed actions, analyzing costs, and ensuring that funding strategies are aligned with long-term fiscal sustainability.

Funding and resource needs will be incorporated into the City’s annual budgeting process to support effective and sustained implementation.

The implementation structure will continue to evolve as strategies are rolled out and progress is monitored.

CAAP Monitoring and Updates
Monitoring and reporting processes are crucial for ensuring accountability in achieving the adopted targets. As part of CAAP implementation, the City of Campbell will complete an annual progress report to keep the community informed and engaged. Additionally, the City will conduct a GHG inventory update approximately every three to five years. The annual progress reports will evaluate implementation progress against the established schedule. A comprehensive CAAP update is planned for 2030, which will include another inventory to evaluate progress and adjust strategies as needed. These efforts are dependent on available City resources, including funding and staff capacity, and may be adjusted accordingly. Various City of Campbell departments will monitor and report on the implementation of the CAAP. This team will collaborate with interested parties to gather data on the effectiveness of the strategies and report progress to the City Council and the public. The City Council will provide oversight and guidance to ensure successful implementation of the CAAP, while also helping to balance funding decisions against competing priorities to support long-term sustainability. The CAAP establishes metrics to monitor the effectiveness of the measures and actions. The actions that offer the greatest long-term benefits for the lowest upfront and ongoing costs are prioritized.

The City of Campbell is advanced sustainability through a series of energy conservation and infrastructure upgrades across city facilities and properties. Partnering with Syserco Energy Solutions, the City implemented improvements such as HVAC upgrades, LED lighting retrofits, and energy management system enhancements. These projects were expected to cut electricity use by over 1.6 million kWh and natural gas by more than 23,000 therms annually, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 862 metric tons each year. These efforts align with the City’s General Plan goals to reduce environmental impact and promote long-term energy efficiency.4 General Plan – Open Space and Conservation Element (2023) Campbell's parks, trails, open spaces, scenic views, and cultural and ecological assets are key elements that shape the City’s identity and enhance residents’ quality of life. The Open Space and Conservation Element of the General Plan emphasizes the protection and enhancement of these assets for future generations. It also promotes waste reduction, improved air and water quality, and sustainable land use.

General Plan – Safety Element (2023)
In accordance with California’s state requirements, the City of Campbell has incorporated a Safety Element into its General Plan. This component addresses both natural and human-made hazards and outlines objectives and strategies designed to minimize associated risks.

Air Quality Ordinance (2024)
Adopted in 2024, Campbell’s new Air Quality Ordinance aims to eliminating nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from appliances and equipment in newly constructed residential and commercial buildings, as well as in major renovations that incorporate parts of existing structures. Effective October 3, 2024, the ordinance applies to a wide range of appliances used for space heating and cooling, water heating, cooking (indoor and outdoor), and clothes drying.

Exemptions include commercial kitchens, specialized equipment that relies on gas (e.g., pottery kilns), emergency-use devices, and outdoor heaters or grills using small propane tanks. 4 City of Campbell. 2023.

Campbell Stormwater Programs (2025)
The City of Campbell has partnered with the West Valley Stormwater Authority to protect local waterways through proactive stormwater pollution prevention. Programs focus on keeping creeks clean by preventing runoff contamination, promoting green infrastructure, and enforcing responsible development practices. Initiatives include street sweeping, installing trash capture systems, and supporting low-impact development. Residents are encouraged to report spills and illegal dumping to help safeguard the environment and maintain the health of local ecosystems.5 City of Campbell Parks Master Plan (2025)
The City of Campbell created its first-ever Parks and Recreation Master Plan—an initiative to shape the future of parks, recreation programs, and facilities. This comprehensive plan will guide the development, maintenance, and enhancement of public spaces for years to come. Community input was a key part of the process, with multiple meetings and online opportunities for residents to share their ideas and feedback.

Multimodal Transportation Plan (In Progress)
The City of Campbell is in the process of developing the Campbell Multimodal Transportation Plan to improve mobility, reduce vehicle emissions, and support active and public transportation. This plan will play a critical role in shaping a more connected, accessible, and sustainable transportation network citywide.

Regional Regulations and Sustainability Plans
The San Francisco Bay Area continues to lead in regional climate action through progressive air quality regulations and innovative clean energy programs. These efforts not only complement state and federal climate goals but also provide a foundational framework for local jurisdictions. For the City of Campbell, regional initiatives—such as appliance electrification mandates from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and clean energy programs from Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE)— have directly informed the development of the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP). These programs offer both policy alignment and practical tools that support Campbell’s transition to a lowcarbon, climate-resilient future.

Bay Area Air District Rules and Regulations (2024)
The Air District has adopted Regulation 9, Rules 4 and 6 to reduce NOₓ emissions from residential and commercial appliances. These rules include:
▪ Starting in 2027, the sale and installation of most new natural gas water heaters will be prohibited in the Bay Area.
▪ Beginning in 2029, new gas-powered furnaces must be replaced with zero-NOₓ-emission electric systems.
▪ By 2031, large commercial water heaters must also comply with zero-emission standards. 5 City of Campbell. 2025. Stormwater. https://www.campbellca.gov/1132/Stormwater. Accessed June 2025.

SVCE’s initiatives support regional decarbonization and help residents reduce their carbon footprint while improving indoor air quality and energy affordability.

Santa Clara Basin Stormwater Resource Plan (2019)
Developed through a collaborative, two-year effort led by SCVURPPP and the Santa Clara Valley Water District, the SWRP identifies and prioritizes Green Stormwater Infrastructure (GSI) projects that use natural processes to capture and treat runoff. These projects offer multiple environmental benefits, including pollution reduction, groundwater recharge, flood mitigation, and enhanced community resilience. The SWRP supports local GSI planning efforts and aligns with the region’s broader “One Water” strategy to integrate water quality, supply, and ecosystem goals at a watershed scale.7 Santa Clara County Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (2024) The Santa Clara County Multijurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan (MJHMP), approved by FEMA in February 2024, outlines strategies to reduce risks from natural and human-caused hazards across multiple communities. Developed alongside the Community Wildfire Protection Plan and the General Plan Safety Element update, the MJHMP aligns with state legislation (AB 2140) to enhance disaster resilience and secure state funding eligibility. The plan remains in effect until February 2029, with the County already seeking grant funding to support its next update.8 Water Efficient Landscape Guidelines (2015)
To promote long-term water sustainability, California’s Water Efficient Landscape Guidelines encourage the design and maintenance of landscapes that conserve water while enhancing environmental quality.

California Regulations and State GHG Targets
California remains a global leader in the effort to reduce GHG emissions and combat climate change through its mitigation and adaptation strategies. With the passage of Assembly Bill (AB) 32 in 2006, California became the first state in the United States to mandate GHG emission reductions across its entire economy. To support AB 32, California has enacted legislation, regulations, and executive orders (EO) that put it on course to achieve robust emission reductions and address the impacts of a changing climate. The following is a summary of executive and legislative actions most relevant to the City of Campbell’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP).

Senate Bill 1078 (2002)
In 2002, Senate Bill (SB) 1078 established the California Renewables Portfolio Standards (RPS) Program and was accelerated in 2006 by SB 107, requiring that 20 percent of retail electricity sales be composed of renewable energy sources by 2010. EO S-14-08 was signed in 2008 to further streamline California's renewable energy project approval process and increase the State's RPS to 33 percent renewable power by 2020.

Assembly Bill 1493 (2002)
In 2002, the California State Legislature enacted Assembly Bill 1493 (aka “the Pavley Bill”), which directs CARB to adopt standards that will achieve "the maximum feasible and cost-effective reduction of GHG emissions from motor vehicles," considering environmental, social, technological, and economic factors.

In September 2009, CARB adopted amendments to the “Pavley” regulations to reduce GHG emissions in new passenger vehicles from 2009 through 2016. The Pavley Bill is considered to be the national model for vehicle emissions standards. In January of 2012, CARB approved a new emissions control program for vehicle model years 2017 through 2025. The program combines the control of smog, soot, and GHGs and the requirement for greater numbers of zero emission vehicles into a single package of standards called Advanced Clean Cars.

Executive Order S-3-05 (2005)
EO S-3-05 was signed in 2005 establishing statewide GHG emissions reduction targets for the years 2020 and 2050. The EO calls for the reduction of GHG emissions in California to 2000 levels by 2010, 1990 levels by 2020, and 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. The 2050 emission reductions target would put the State’s emissions in line with the worldwide reductions needed to reach long-term climate stabilization as concluded by the IPCC 2007 Fourth Assessment Report.

Assembly Bill 32 (2006)
California’s major initiative for reducing GHG emissions is outlined in AB 32, the “California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006,” which was signed into law in 2006. AB 32 codifies the statewide goal of reducing GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. CARB was tasked with preparing a Scoping Plan to 9 City of Campbell. 2015.

outline strategies for achieving this goal. In addition, AB 32 requires CARB to adopt regulations to require reporting and verification of statewide GHG emissions.

Based on this guidance, CARB approved a 1990 statewide GHG baseline and 2020 emissions limit of 427 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MMT CO2e). The Scoping Plan was approved by CARB on December 11, 2008, and included measures to address GHG emission reduction strategies related to energy efficiency, water use, and recycling and solid waste, among other measures. Many of the GHG reduction measures included in the Scoping Plan (e.g., Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Advanced Clean Car standards,10 and Cap-and-Trade) have been adopted since approval of the Scoping Plan.

In May 2014, CARB approved the first update to the AB 32 Scoping Plan. The 2014 Scoping Plan update defined CARB’s climate change priorities for the next five years and set the groundwork to reach post2020 statewide goals. The update highlighted California’s progress toward meeting the “near-term” 2020 GHG emission reduction goals defined in the original Scoping Plan. It also evaluated how to align the State’s longer-term GHG reduction strategies with other State policy priorities, including those for water, waste, natural resources, clean energy, transportation, and land use.

Senate Bill 107 (2006)
SB 107 builds on SB 1078 and requires investor-owned utilities, energy service providers, and Community Choice Aggregations to procure an additional 1 percent of retail sales per year from eligible renewable sources until 20 percent is reached, no later than 2010. The California Public Utilities Commission and California Energy Commission are jointly responsible for implementing the program.

Executive Order S-1-07 (2007)
Also known as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, EO S-1-07, issued in 2007, established a statewide goal that requires transportation fuel providers to reduce the carbon intensity of California’s transportation fuels by at least 10 percent by 2020. EO S-1-07 was readopted and amended in 2015 to require a 20 percent reduction in carbon intensity by 2030, the most stringent requirement in the nation. The new requirement aligns with California’s overall 2030 target of reducing climate changing emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, which was set by SB 32 and signed by the governor in 2016.

Senate Bill 97 (2007)
Signed in August 2007, SB 97 acknowledges that climate change is an environmental issue that requires analysis in California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) documents. In March 2010, the California Natural Resources Agency adopted amendments to the State CEQA Guidelines for the feasible mitigation of GHG emissions or the effects of GHG emissions. The adopted guidelines give lead agencies the discretion to set quantitative or qualitative thresholds for the assessment and mitigation of GHG and climate change impacts.

Senate Bill 375 (2008)
SB 375, signed in August 2008, enhances the State’s ability to reach AB 32 goals by directing CARB to develop regional GHG emission reduction targets to be achieved from passenger vehicles by 2020 and 10 On September 19, 2019, the National Highway Traffic Safety Agency (NHTSA) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a final action entitled the One National Program on Federal Preemption of State Fuel Economy Standards Rule. This action finalizes Part I of the Safer, Affordable, Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule. This rule states that federal law preempts State and local tailpipe greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions standards as well as zero emission vehicle (ZEV) mandates. The SAFE Rule withdraws the Clean Air Act waiver it granted to California in January 2013 as it relates to California’s GHG and zero emission vehicle programs.

2035. In addition, SB 375 directs each of the State’s 18 major Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to prepare a “sustainable communities strategy” (SCS) that contains a growth strategy to meet these emission targets for inclusion in the MPO’s Regional Transportation Plan (RTP).

Executive Order S-14-08 (2008)
EO S-14-08 was issued in 2008 and sets a statewide target of 33 percent renewable energy use by 2020.

California Green Building Code (2009)
The California Green Building Standards Code (CALGreen) is Part 11 of the California Building Standards Code or Title 24 and is the first statewide “green” building code in the nation. The purpose of CALGreen is to improve public health, safety, and general welfare by enhancing the design and construction of buildings. Enhancements include reduced negative impact designs, positive environmental impact designs, and encouragement of sustainable construction practices. The first CALGreen Code was adopted in 2009 and has been updated in 2013, 2016, and 2019. The CALGreen Code is expected to have subsequent, and continually more stringent, updates every three years.

Senate Bill X7-7 (2009)
In 2009, SB X7-7, also known as the Water Conservation Act, was signed, requiring all water suppliers to increase water use efficiency. This legislation sets an overall goal of reducing per capita urban water use by 20 percent by 2020.

Senate Bill 2X (2011)
In 2011, SB 2X was signed, requiring California energy providers to buy (or generate) 33 percent of their electricity from renewable energy sources by 2020.

Assembly Bill 341 (2012)
AB 341 directed the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to develop and adopt regulations for mandatory commercial recycling. As of July 2012, businesses were required to recycle, and jurisdictions had to implement a program that includes education, outreach, and monitoring. AB 341 also set a statewide goal of 75 percent waste diversion by the year 2020.

Senate Bill 743 (2013)
SB 743 introduces a new performance metric, vehicle miles traveled (VMT), as a basis for determining significant transportation impacts under CEQA. Projects that are projected to increase VMT may mitigate their impacts through measures such as car-sharing services, unbundled parking, improved transit, and enhanced pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure.

Assembly Bill 32 Scoping Plan Update (2014)
AB 1826 was signed in 2014 to increase the recycling of organic material. GHG emissions produced by the decomposition of these materials in landfills were identified as a significant source of emissions contributing to climate change. Therefore, reducing organic waste and increasing composting and mulching are goals set out by the AB 32 Scoping Plan. AB 1826 specifically requires jurisdictions to establish organic waste recycling programs by 2016, and phases in mandatory commercial organic waste recycling over time.

Assembly Bill 1826 (2014)
AB 1826 was signed in 2014 to increase the recycling of organic material. GHG emissions produced by the decomposition of these materials in landfills were identified as a significant source of emissions contributing to climate change. Therefore, reducing organic waste and increasing composting and mulching are goals set out by the AB 32 Scoping Plan. AB 1826 specifically requires jurisdictions to establish organic waste recycling programs by 2016, and phases in mandatory commercial organic waste recycling over time. This law laid the foundation for SB 1383 implementation, which mandates statewide organic waste diversion and edible food recovery.

Senate Bill 350 (2015)
SB 350, the Clean Energy and Pollution Reduction Act of 2015, has two objectives: to increase the procurement of electricity from renewable sources from 33 percent to 50 percent by 2030 and to double the energy efficiency of electricity and natural gas end users through energy efficiency and conservation.

Executive Order B-30-15 (2015)
In 2015, EO B-30-15 was signed, establishing an interim GHG emissions reduction target to reduce emissions to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. The EO also calls for another update to the CARB Scoping Plan.

Senate Bill 32 (2016)
On September 8, 2016, the governor signed SB 32 into law, extending AB 32 by requiring the State to further reduce GHGs to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030 (the other provisions of AB 32 remain unchanged). The bill charges CARB to adopt the regulation so that the maximum technologically feasible emissions reductions are achieved in the most cost-effective way. California’s 2030 target of 40% below 1990 levels is consistent with the IPCC’s mid-century goals, while the 2045 neutrality goal is ahead of the IPCC’s global 2050 timeline.

Senate Bill 1383 (2016)
Adopted in September 2016, SB 1383 requires CARB to approve and begin implementing a comprehensive strategy to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants. The bill requires the strategy to achieve the following reduction targets by 2030:
▪ Methane – 40 percent below 2013 levels
▪ Hydrofluorocarbons – 40 percent below 2013 levels
▪ Black carbon – 50 percent below 2013 levels
SB 1383 also requires CalRecycle, in consultation with the CARB, to adopt regulations that achieve specified targets for reducing organic waste in landfills. The bill further requires 20 percent of edible food disposed of at the time to be recovered by 2025. Implementation is ongoing, with local jurisdictions required to enforce compliance and report progress to CalRecycle.

Scoping Plan Update (2017)
On December 14, 2017, CARB adopted the 2017 Scoping Plan, which provides a framework for achieving the 2030 goal set by SB 32. The 2017 Scoping Plan relies on the continuation and expansion of existing Item 10.1

Climate Change Legislation Summary
Campbell CAAP Administrative Draft A-9
policies and regulations, such as the Cap-and-Trade Program, as well as implementation of recently adopted policies, such as SB 350 and SB 1383.

The 2017 Scoping Plan also puts an increased emphasis on innovation, adoption of existing technology, and strategic investment to support its strategies. As with the 2014 Scoping Plan Update, the 2017 Scoping Plan does not provide project-level thresholds for land use development. Instead, it recommends that local governments adopt policies and locally appropriate quantitative thresholds consistent with statewide per capita goals of six metric tons (MT) CO2e by 2030 and two MT CO2e by 2050. As stated in the 2017 Scoping Plan, these goals may be appropriate for plan-level analyses (city, county, subregional, or regional level), but not for specific individual projects because they include all emissions sectors in the State.11 This plan was succeeded by the 2022 Scoping Plan, which sets a legally binding target of carbon neutrality by 2045 and an 85 percent reduction in GHG emissions below 1990 levels.

Senate Bill 100 (2018)
Adopted on September 10, 2018, SB 100 accelerates the state’s RSP Program by requiring:
▪ 33 percent renewable electricity by 2020
▪ 60 percent by 2030
▪ 100 percent zero-carbon electricity by 2045
SB 1020 (2022) later added interim targets of 90 percent by 2035 and 95 percent by 2040.

Executive Order B-55-18 (2018)
On September 10, 2018, the governor issued Executive Order B-55-18, which established a new statewide goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2045 and maintaining net negative emissions thereafter. This goal is in addition to the existing statewide GHG reduction targets established by SB 375, SB 32, SB 1383, and SB 100, and was codified in AB 1279 (2022).

Assembly Bill 2127 (2018)
AB 2127 directs the California Energy Commission (CEC) to prepare and biennially update a statewide assessment of the electric vehicle charging infrastructure needed to support the levels of electric vehicle adoption for the state to meet its goal of putting at least five million zero-emission vehicles on California roads by 2030. The 2022 report identified a need for 1.2 million public and shared chargers by 2030.

Innovative Clean Transit Rule (2018)
The Innovative Clean Transit Rule, adopted by CARB in 2018, requires public transit agencies to gradually transition to 100 percent zero-emissions bus fleets by 2040. This regulation applies to all transit agencies that own, operate, or lease buses with gross vehicle weight rating above 14,000 pounds.

Executive Order N-79-20 (2020)
On September 23, 2020, the governor issued EO N-79-20, which sets new statewide goals for phasing out gasoline-powered cars and trucks in California, which is applicable to state agencies. The EO requires:

The ACT Regulation requires that manufacturers of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles (Class 2b through Class 8) selling vehicles in California begin shifting toward zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) by model year 2024. Under its provisions, sales of ZEVs must increase steadily over time: for example, by model year 2035 manufacturers must achieve approximately 55% zero-emission sales for Class 2b-3, 75% for Class 4-8 straight trucks, and 40% for Class 7-8 tractor trucks. In addition to the manufacturer sales requirement, the regulation imposes a one-time reporting obligation on large fleets or entities (those with greater than 50 trucks) to report current fleet makeup and operations.

Enforcement of the ACT regulation remains uncertain at this time. On June 12, 2025, House Joint Resolution 87 was signed into law nullifying the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (U.S.

EPA) notice which granted CARB's waiver request for the regulation. The future of its implementation remains unclear as California pursues legal action against the resolution.

Small Off-road Engine Regulations (2021)
In 2021, CARB approved amendments to the Small Off-road Engine (SORE) Regulations. The SORE regulations are intended to reduce emissions from equipment with SOREs and transition such equipment to zero-emission equipment. SORE equipment includes spark-ignition engines 25 horsepower, or below, which are used in most lawn and garden equipment. The regulations set emission standards for smog-forming pollutants to zero for all new SOREs (except for generator and large pressure washer engines) beginning with model year 2024. The regulations set more stringent emission standards for new portable generators and large pressure washer engines beginning with model year 2028. The regulations apply to manufacturers, sellers, retailers, and distributors producing, distributing, and selling new SOREs.

U.S. EPA has granted CARB an authorization to waive federal preemption for its current SORE regulations. CARB will fully implement the regulations beginning with the 2026 model year and implement the regulations for the remainder of the 2025 model year.

Senate Bill 27 (2021)
Adopted on September 23, 2021, SB 27 requires the state Natural Resources Agency to:
▪ Establish carbon sequestration goals for natural and working lands by July 2023 ▪ Create a registry of projects for public and private investment and track the carbon benefits of each project
▪ Ensure projects to not generate Cap-and-Trade offsets Additionally, as part of the next Scoping Plan Update, CARB is required to establish specific CO2 removal targets starting in 2030.

Senate Bill 379 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, SB 379 requires cities and counties to implement an online, automated permitting platform to verify solar installation code compliance and issue permits in real time for residential solar energy systems no larger than 38.4 kilowatt hours.

Senate Bill 1020 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, SB 1020 expedites the previous goals established by SB 100 by requiring:
▪ 90 percent clean electricity by 2035
▪ 95 percent by 2040
▪ 100 percent clean electricity for state agencies = by December 31, 2035.

Senate Bill 1063 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, SB 1063 creates appliance efficiency standards set by the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, which may now take effect sooner than one year after their adoption/revision. SB 1063 builds on Title 20 efficiency standards enforced through the California Energy Commission and first adopted in 1977.

Assembly Bill 1909 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, AB 1909 removes prohibition of operating motorized electric bicycles or Class 3 bikes on bicycle paths or trails, bikeways, or bicycle lanes. However, the bill also includes an exemption for the Department of Parks and Recreation, which may prohibit these classes of bicycles on any bicycle path or trail within the department’s jurisdiction, where appropriate.

Assembly Bill 1857 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, AB 1857 amends various sections of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989, which required jurisdictions to divert 50% of solid waste through source reduction, recycling, and composting activities, with no more than 10% through transformation. AB 1857 repeals the provision that jurisdictions may divert 10% through transformation (e.g., incineration).

Additionally, AB 1857 requires the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery to establish the Zero-Waste Equity Grant Program to support targeted strategies and investments in communities transitioning to zero-waste circular economies.

Assembly Bill 1985 (2022)
Adopted September 16, 2022, AB 1985 establishes penalties applied to jurisdictions for not meeting SB 1383 requirements. Penalty will be based on the percentage of the target the jurisdiction was able to achieve.

Assembly Bill 1279 (2022)
In September 2022, AB 1279 (e.g., the California Climate Crisis Act) was approved, which established a legally binding requirement for California to achieve and maintain carbon neutrality no later than 2045.

Assembly Bill 1279 also established the requirement to achieve a Statewide reduction in GHG emissions of 85 percent below 1990 levels by 2045. This indicates that the remaining 15 percent to achieve carbon neutrality can be achieved via carbon sequestration and other non-direct-GHG-emissions-reductions techniques.

2022 Scoping Plan Update (2022)
In response to AB 1279 and the 2045 GHG reduction target, CARB adopted the Final 2022 Climate Change Scoping Plan in November 2022. This update builds on previous plans and outlines a comprehensive, equity-focused, and technologically feasible roadmap to achieve:
▪ 40 percent GHG reduction below 1990 levels by 2030
▪ 85 percent GHG reduction and carbon neutrality by 2045 The plan emphasizes:
▪ Phasing out fossil fuel combustion
▪ Expanding clean energy and electrification
▪ Enhancing carbon sequestration on natural and working lands ▪ Deploying carbon capture and storage (CCS)
▪ Integrating environmental justice and affordability
It also includes four modeled scenarios, with the selected scenario prioritizing a balanced approach across sectors.12
Advanced Clean Cars II (2022)
By 2035, all new passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs sold in California will be ZEVs. The Advanced Clean Cars II regulations take the state’s already growing ZEV market and robust motor vehicle emission control rules and augments them to meet more aggressive tailpipe emissions standards and ramp up to 100% ZEVs.

Enforcement of the Advanced Clean Cars II regulation remains uncertain at this time. On June 12, 2025, House Joint Resolution 88 was signed into law nullifying the U.S. EPA’s notice which granted CARB's request for the regulation. The future of implementation remains unclear as California pursues legal action against the resolution.

Senate Bill 1020 (2022)
Also known as the Clean Energy, Jobs, and Affordability Act of 2022, SB 1020 builds on SB 100 and sets the following targets:
▪ 90 percent of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2035 ▪ 95 percent of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2040 ▪ 100 percent of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2045 ▪ 100 percent of electricity procured to serve all state agencies by December 31, 2035 Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation (2023)
Adopted by CARB in 2023, the Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation requires fleets that are well suited for electrification to reduce emissions through requirements to phase-in the use of ZEVs for targeted fleets.

In 2025, California withdrew the request for a federal waiver for the addition of the ACF regulation to the State’s emissions control program. At this time, CARB is not enforcing the portions of the ACF 12 CARB. 2022. 2022 Scoping Plan for Achieving Carbon Neutrality. https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/2022-12/2022-sp.pdf Item 10.1

regulation that require a federal waiver. However, not all elements of the ACF regulation require a federal waiver or authorization. The State and local government fleets portion of the ACF regulation remains unaffected. Additionally, CARB is encouraging affected industries and fleets to continue reducing their GHG emissions.

Assembly Bill 2684 (2024)
Adopted September 30, 2024, AB 2684 requires cities and counties to update the Safety Element chapter of the general Plan after January 1, 2028, to address extreme heat hazards.

Senate Bill 1221 (2024)
Adopted September 25, 2024, SB 1221, also known as Empowering neighborhood-scale decarbonization for a cleaner, safer future, will create long-term energy affordability for Californians, reduce emissions from the state’s building stock, and create an equitable transition toward carbon neutrality by 2045.

Signed by Governor Gavin Newsom, this legislation authorizes the California Public Utilities Commission to create up to 30 “neighborhood decarbonization zones.” In these zones, communities can transition from gas to zero-emissions alternatives, such as electric heating and cooking appliances.

AB 130 New Exemptions Under CEQA (2025)
California Assembly Bill (AB) 130, signed into law on June 30, 2025, includes provisions that affect both the electrification of buildings and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). While generally aimed at increasing housing and expediting development, the bill places a moratorium on local governments from adopting new residential energy "reach codes" between October 1, 2025, and June 1, 2031. This freeze on new, stricter codes applies to residential units and also suspends the 2028 statewide energy code update cycle. Local governments may still update reach codes if the changes are substantially equivalent to codes in effect as of September 30, 2025, if deemed necessary for health and safety emergencies, or if the changes are needed to align with a General Plan adopted before June 10, 2025.

International Climate Action Guidance
Climate change is a global challenge that transcends national borders, requiring coordinated international action. Over the past three decades, a series of landmark agreements and frameworks have been established to guide countries in reducing GHG emissions, adapting to climate impacts, and promoting sustainable development. The following section outlines key international treaties and accords that shape the global response to climate change and inform local efforts, including those of the City of Campbell.

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (1992) The primary international regulatory framework for GHG reduction is the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The UNFCCC is an international treaty adopted in 1992 with the objective of stabilizing atmospheric GHG concentrations to prevent disruptive anthropogenic climate Item 10.1

change. The framework established non-binding limits on global GHG emissions and specified a process for negotiating future international climate-related agreements.13 Kyoto Protocol (1997)
The Kyoto Protocol is an international treaty that was adopted in 1997 to extend and operationalize the UNFCCC. The protocol commits industrialized nations to reduce GHG emissions per country-specific targets, recognizing that they hold responsibility for existing atmospheric GHG levels. The Kyoto Protocol involves two commitment periods during which emissions reductions are to occur, the first of which took place between 2008-2012 and the second of which has not entered into force, and the second from 2013-2020.
14 The second commitment period, established under the Doha Amendment, officially entered into force in December 2020 and concluded successfully, with participating countries achieving an average emissions reduction of 22 percent compared to 1990 levels. 15 Disaster Mitigation Act (2000)
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)’s Disaster Mitigation Act intends to “reduce the loss of life and property, human suffering, economic disruption, and disaster assistance costs resulting from natural disasters.” 16 Under this legislation, state, tribal, and local governments must develop a hazard mitigation plan as a condition for receiving certain types of non-emergency disaster assistance through the Hazard Mitigation Assistance Program.17
The Paris Agreement (2015)
The Paris Agreement is the first-ever universal, legally binding global climate agreement that was adopted in 2015 and has been ratified by 190 countries worldwide.18 The Paris Agreement establishes a roadmap to keep the world under 2°C of warming with a goal of limiting an increase of temperature to

1.5°C. The agreement does not dictate one specific reduction target, instead relying on individual countries to set Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), or GHG reductions, based on GDP and other factors. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), limiting global warming to 1.5°C will require global emissions be reduced through 2030 and hit carbon neutrality by mid-century.19 The United States has had a varied relationship with the agreement: it initially signed in 2016 under the Obama administration, withdrew in 2020 under the Trump administration, rejoined in 2021 under President Biden, and submitted formal notification to withdraw again in January 2025 under President Trump’s second term, with the withdrawal set to take effect in January 2026.

Glasgow Climate Pact (2021)
The Glasgow Climate Pact20 (Pact) was adopted by nearly 200 nations in 2021 and builds on the 2015 Paris Agreement. The Pact includes an agreement to revisit the emissions reduction plans to keep the

1.5°C target achievable and is the first global climate agreement that commits to phasing down 13 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

Meeting Notes:

The following text is more detailed notes from the meeting.

Questions & Answers during the presentation
Q: Will this be a consumption-based inventory?
A: This will not be a consumption based inventory, but there is a large consumptionbased inventory that was completed by UC Berkeley that will be integrated/ referenced. It is not at the county level.

Q: What is included under Waste (food waste vs separated waste? A: Includes all of the emissions generated in the landfill as it decays. All the waste that is sent in a specified year, and the emissions as this amount of waste decays at once. About 95% of this is methane from organic waste. This does not include organic or green waste that is composted that does not go to the landfill since it breaks down.
- The Landfill emissions are counted based on waste that is generated in Campbell. It is the same process with how energy emissions are calculated. - Some things are counted outside the city like
o Transportation: Vehicle miles traveled both to the city and out of the city (divided in half and allocated between relevant cities) o Electricity (electricity needed for a water pump at the city level) The 2017 Inventory is an example and will not be used as the baseline. The inventory that is being created is a 2022 Inventory.

Q: Can we do a comparative analysis from 2017 to 2022
A: Since this is the first inventory for Campbell there is no 2017 data to compare to, the 2022 Inventory will be the baseline.. Though the Santa Clara County GHG inventory will be ready soon for 2022 to do a comparative analysis at the county level.

Discussion on Climate Vulnerable Populations Map
The map presented in the presentation shows areas of high proportion of vulnerable populations within Campbell. The areas identified are culminations of data sets that are given a threshold score. The black line indicated city limits, with the lower portion being Los Gatos.
- Do the locations of the climate vulnerable areas generally make sense? Item 10.1

What are the key concerns or opportunities around climate? • People getting left out of the process or are not engaged. Engage the entire community from the children to the business.
• Creating multi-benefit solutions (Ex; green spaces that are cooling centers but can also be used as community gathering spaces)
• Supporting behavioral change to build resilience but also providing the environment to nourish the behavioral change (Ex: More bike lanes support people using bikes as the primary mode of transportation) • Thinking holistically and educating the community on risks (both physical and mental), and benefits of change.
• Leading with community values and creating something the community can actually do.
• Engaging and informing the next generation to start the conversation. • Identify goals and targets to actively work towards.
• Raise awareness and identify small changes that individuals can make today while breaking down concepts into smaller digestible chunks. • Specific concerns on Air Quality, Air Pollution, Extreme Heat, green spaces, Wildfires and effects on wildlife, Shade and urban forests Item 10.1

Meeting Overview
The third meeting of the Campbell Climate Action and Adaptation Plan Community Advisory Committee took place on January 16, 2024, from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm at the Campbell City Hall Council Chambers. The purpose of this meeting was to review Phase 2 of community engagement efforts and share the resulting initial community values, introduce the Scenario Planning and Reductions Quantification Tool (SPARQ), share draft measures and begin to develop actions.

Five Advisory Committee Members and the Project Team (Team), comprised of Tiffany Hudson, the Environmental Programs Specialist, and the consultant team, attended the meeting. Mindy Craig, Principal of BluePoint Planning, facilitated the group through the following agenda with support from Ryan Gardner, Project Manager with Rincon Consultants, Inc.

1. Introductions & Meeting Objectives

2. Project Recap

3. Community Engagement Round 2

4. Measure & Action Development

5. Draft Systems & Measures

6. Action Brainstorm Discussion

7. Next Steps
Community Advisory Committee Members and the Campbell Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (Plan) team began with a brief introduction followed by an overview of the Climate Action and Adaptation Plan, current process and project phase and engagement activities planned for this round, and a recap of the previous Advisory Committee Meeting. The team then provided a brief overview of the previous phase of engagement, highlighting the number of people reached, the activities, and the collection process followed by the initial community values developed from the engagement.

The team then presented the process for Measure & Action Development for this Plan and introduced the SPARQ tool, which is used to calculate potential emissions reduction pathways based on different climate strategies. The Community Advisory Committee then took a survey on the Climate Action and Resilience Pathways, which prompted participants to choose a pathway “ambitious, moderate, or no action” as it relates to each sector and measure of the Plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Campbell. The team inputted the survey results into the SPARQ Item 10.1

Meeting Notes:

The following text is more detailed notes from the meeting.

Presentation Notes
The following questions were posed by the Advisory Group during the presentation.

Answers were included from the Project Team as well.

Question: How much of the reduction targets are regulatory mandated by the state? Answer: There are no requirements to reach GHG reductions, but the State does incentivize it.

Question: Campbell has a particularly high amount of particulate matter, which causes damage to the ozone layer; why is this?
Answer: There are a lot of emissions coming from gas vehicles and diesel vehicles and equipment. This could also be coming from the combustion of natural gas in buildings
SPARQ Survey Feedback
The 2022 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory result was discussed as a preamble to the survey, the results of the inventory are below.

This report is not a consumption-based inventory and does not include scope 3 emissions like embodied carbon or emissions associated with building or creating things.

Meeting #3 Summary
Prepared by BluePoint Planning Page 5
The SPARQ Tool helps to show what levers (policy changes or behavior change projects) the City of Campbell can utilize to reduce emissions and reach reduction targets.

After taking the Climate Action and Resilience Pathways Survey the Advisory Committee had the following feedback.
• The survey was informative and made people think about the implications of each action.
• A regular community member may think these things as unattainable, can we change the language (ambitious, moderate, no action) to guide participants to a more impactful option.
• To further differentiate the options add a cost benefit analysis. • Community Advisory Committee Members have been presented and understand the Greenhouse Gas Inventory which provides context for the survey and its questions. This should be added to the beginning. • Add other success measures or policies that have made a significant impact, such as the no NOx policy, for options to seem more achievable.

Activity Discussion
After the Community Advisory Committee had completed the survey the results were uploaded to the SPARQ tool. The image below shows the following results which guided the discussion. The following are notes from the discussion.

Meeting #3 Summary
Prepared by BluePoint Planning Page 6
Similar to the Greenhouse Gas Inventory, the SPARQ tool does not include embodied carbon. Rincon is still waiting for guidance on frameworks to accurately count these emissions.
• The Advisory Committee recommends adding an educational or behavioral section on actions that may not be included in these emissions but still make an impact, including:
o Plastic usage
o Consumption
Building Energy Measures
• This sector assumes 100% of the electricity will be carbon-free • Campbell has passed an electric building ordinance in 2022 which is supporting this reduction
• Campbell cannot make an ordinance that removes residents working gas water heater or furnace and replace it with their electric counterparts, so the focus is instead on the permitting side when it comes to replacing these appliances
• There are state reimbursements to support the electric replacements for these appliances
• 80% of gas use comes from water heating and gas heating • Campbell could extend the no NOx ordinance to the water heater and HVAC system or offer a checklist that incentivizes reductions • Campbell could enforce a two-AC requirement (heating and cooling system in one) to reduce the need for multiple appliances and emissions • Bring together education and incentives
Transportation
• The transportation sector is the biggest emission source • Reducing emissions involves getting people out of their cars, using public transportation, and making vehicles electric
• It is really hard to reduce Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) as California is a carcentral place • The answer is to redesign cities, and the question is how much money and resources to put into this
o Removing parking is difficult
• Campbell has a downtown that can be used to pilot areas for a different type of lifestyle, like walking, car low areas, or a jitney service • Campbell could build infrastructure for designated drop off zones for people with disabilities
• Creating a connected network of bike lanes would reduce emissions • Working with transportation services and workplaces to incentivize public transportation for commuting

Electric Vehicles
• The State’s legislation will mandate a ban on the sale of gas vehicles by 2035 which will help reduce transportation emissions
• How do we provide the infrastructure to support a shift t o Public charging stations
▪ Including areas for people without a Single Family Garage to charge
▪ Areas for road trip charging
o Workplace charging stations
• Advancing municipal vehicles to clean vehicles
• Ensuring EV equity
o Thinking about people who do not use cars
o Making things available but not taking from someone, for ex. In multifamily residents with competing priorities, an electric vehicle charger may not be the top priority
Sustainable Food
• Improving access to climate-friendly, healthy, and affordable food will help promote healthy lifestyles and reduce food waste

Presentation Notes
Questions and Answers on Draft Measures and Actions
Q: Unsure of how the city has the ability to do some of these things, is reducing the adoption of single use vehicles building off of the state actions or is this something the city can influence?
A: The measures are the high level areas we want to go, under the measures are all the actions that will help them get to implementation. There is a lot of stuff the city can do but a lot will come down to people making different choices. - 45% of emissions in the United States come down to the kitchen table and decisions on questions like, what car are we going to buy, what HVAC system, what stove, what heater etc.. Getting people to make these decisions to reduce emissions will come from incentives.

Q: Do you think we have a council that will be more responsive to our progressive actions? It is important when framing these actions as there is a short term cost now but it outweighs the long term cost of doing nothing or responding to damage from a hazard.

A: This Plan is aimed to make peoples lives easier, after presenting some of the more aggressive things to Council they were generally on board but we did receive pushback on removing parking.

Q: Once the plan is adopted and we have all the draft measures in place will the Council need to approve all of them then at a later time to implement them? A: Generally they will approve this plan then that will allow staff to implement some actions on their own, others they will have to go back to city council for approval like building ordinances ect. In this case when going back to Council they have the support of Climate Action and Adaptation Plan being already adopted to pass what ever is needed

Activity 1 Areas for Actions
Advisory Committee members identified the following areas to implement the following 3 actions.

TR 1.6: Mixed use
• Area above Hacienda and San Tomas Ave, this area is father away from existing stores
• Further away from downtown you have to take a car to get anywhere, so adding mixed use areas and hubs further out
TR 1.11: Mobility hubs
• Bike lanes on Winchester
• Next to Jack Fisher park next to the high school and middle school • Further away from downtown needs additional options of transportation TR 1.13: Road diets identify areas for lane removal
• Campbell Ave, it is busy in some places but not in others • San Tomas all the way to Vasking
• Downtown Campbell, reducing lanes and promoting pedestrian only areas • Hacienda, the road is too big
• Traffic on Winchester is too busy, Winchester and Bud has a lot of people walking
• West of San Tomas, reduce the number of lanes as people are trying to cross to Safeway and Target
• Hamilton and connection to 17
General Comments:
• Accidentally moving next to a 7/11 it is actually very convenient and saves a lot of travel
• Mobility hubs and road diets are symbiotic but not interchangeable, they are similar but have different impacts.
• Connecting the schools with the parks and making it less congested especially during peak hours and allow for safe child drop off and access to the highway. There are issues of safety around schools. • Looking at areas with disadvantaged communities and how these actions can support them, avoiding further burdens.
• Implementing these actions in areas with visible change to show the community that change is happening.

o Equitable distribution of tree canopies
- Reusables and composting, promoting organizations offering reusable plates o Things to share with community
Activity 3 Cornerstone Measure:

Is there a measurable action or something you would like to showcase the values we did, something to do early on?
- Reusables that we can see instant waste reduction
- Tree canopy and community building, or improved landscaping - Focusing on the smaller communities and how they can make a difference - Making the city more walkable
- Community garden where we plant an edible garden with free vegetables or fruit trees, ensuring the community knows how to access - Electrify
