Establish multi-year funding (for the next five years) to implement recommendations from the 2017/18 Comprehensive Facility Condition and Use Assessments that were identified as priorities in the Comprehensive Facility Condition and Use Assessment. Update the 2017/18 report to maximize it as an effective reference.

The 2017/18 Comprehensive Facility Condition and Use Assessments project assessed the condition of nearly every City owned facility. Several projects were identified as high priority facilities with significant deficiencies that need to be addressed to avoid costly repairs and extended service interruptions.

Ongoing project[s]. The 2017/18 Report was updated in FY22-23 and is currently being finalized and made into an internal dashboard to promote updating and referencing. Work at the Sports Center has occurred in different projects in FY21/22 and FY22/23. FY23/24 projects may include QCC skylight repairs, SC Showers/Bathroom maintenance, and other significant projects identified in the report.

As older equipment is replaced with energy efficient equipment and as building systems are upgraded significant, savings are expected in both maintenance and energy costs.

After the Building Condition Assessment Report (BCA) was completed 2018, Council approved $1,000,000 funding as a multi-year project to implement the high-priority projects identified in the Report. The original funding was implemented but the multi-year component was not enacted in future years. In the past five years, a number of projects have gained urgency, most notably repairs to the Shower Rooms at the Sports Center, and replacement of the fire alarm systems at 7 buildings. The cost projections for these two projects are nearly $2 million, and other projects will be required in out-years. Creating a multi-year project fund for these projects will allow for these significant issues to be addressed.

Additional Funding - Information
Program, plan and build facility improvements to fa cilitate short-term and long-term use[s] of the bui lding. The scope of work will include programming, planning, design, and construction. Emergency Operations Center (EOC ) program and requirements added to the scope of this project in late 2022.

The proximity of this property to the Civic Center, and its central location within the City, lends it self to numerous uses, including a satellite and/or interim City Hal l facility.

Design, and Construction processes are underway . Con struction completion anticipated for Fall 2024 .

Once construction is complete, Facilities and Groun ds divisions will need to add this facility to their workload, including maintenance and janitorial.

The project team believes that the construction cos t will exceed the available funding budgeted. Staff will request an increase the overall project budget when returning to Council to consider the award of the Constructio n contract [to a GC], as the most effective course of action.

In developing the program for the City Hall Annex building as City’s Permit Center and EOC, staff iden tified additional cost impacts, including:
• Increase of construction costs due to the addition of the EOC program and infrastructure. The early es timate is that the addition of the EOC will add approximately $500,000 in construction costs. • Increase of soft costs due to the addition of the EOC program (architect, engineers, management consul tants, etc.). In October 2022, $101,700 was added to the D esign professionals’ contract for this reason. Cost estimate for soft costs is approximately $1.5M, leaving $1.5 M for construction (which is less than required, see below). • An overall increase in the original construction estimate excluding the addition of an EOC. Staff has learned that the original construction cost estimate for the overall project was too low. Current budgeted fun ding is $3 million for the project. This is approximately $1.5 million short of the total estimated construction cost, and this may increase when GC (General Contractor, a.k. a. Construction) bids are received.

Program, plan and build facility improvements at the existing City Hall building site. The scope of wo rk will include programming, planning, design, and construction. Th e Emergency Operations Center (EOC) moves to anothe r facility, but this facility is planned as a “Risk Category IV” Essential Services facility as part of the struct ural system upgrades.

The existing building does not meet current or projected needs for workplace or meeting spaces; all in frastructure systems (structural HVAC, etc.) are well beyond the ir useful life and require full replacement.

In the first fiscal year, the design can be initiated. Construction is projected for future fiscal yea rs, depending on the scope and Environmental Review requirements.

Renovations to the existing facility, or a new faci lity, are expected to improve operational efficienc ies and ultimately reduce costs.

Initial funding for Real Estate Strategy, Programmi ng, and/or Design, is requested for FY 23 – 24, wit h additional funding for soft costs in FY 24 – 25. Funding for Construction will be requested in future budget prop osals, projected for FY 26 – 27.

Design and construct retaining walls to stabilize Regnart Road, addressing issues identified in the 20 17 Outfall Repair and Slope Stabilization project and the Retaining wall project.

This project continues the stabilization efforts along Regnart Road and compliments the 2017 Outfall R epair and Slope Stabilization project and the Retaining wall projec t. The 2017 Regnart Road Slope Stability Study iden tified several areas along Regnart Road that exhibit poor drainage characteristics, with slope stability concerns tha t require partial road reconstruction. To avoid costly road or slope failures and lengthy road closures, improvements fo r both Phases include removing and replacing existing drainage st ructures, regrading/repaving the roadway with drain age towards the creek, widening the road to facilitate construction, installation of railing, slope stabilization/erosion control measures and retaining walls. Phase 2 is not currently funded and is proposed for funding in FY 25-26 (design) and FY 26-27 (construction).

Environmental permitting is required for all phases and is currently delaying Phase 1. Once permitting is secured, the project will be put out for public bid, and construction follows. Design for Phase 2 will begin when P hase 1 construction is underway.

This project should minimize or prevent costly emer gency responses by maintenance crews resulting in a savings to the operating budget.

Phase 1 (Sites 1 &2): The project team believes that the construction cost will exceed the available f unding budgeted.

Once the General Contractor’s bids are received, st aff will return to Council for. Award of that contr act and will request additional funds at that time as required to continue the project. Phase 2 funding will be req uested in future FY budget proposals.

Design storm drainage improvements at Pumpkin Drive, Fiesta Lane, September Drive, and Festival Drive between Bubb Road and State Route 85. Construct storm drainage improvements at Fiesta Lane, September Drive and Festival Drive between UPRR tracks and State Route 85. This is a high priority project in the Storm Drain Master Plan.

The 2018 Storm Drain Master Plan evaluated the City's storm drainage system and identified areas subject to flooding during a 10-year storm. The plan also identified and prioritized projects to mitigate potential for flooding in areas of deficiency. The Pumpkin and Fiesta Phase 1 and 2 Projects received highest priority. Phase 1 will be constructed as part of this project. Phase 2 will require additional funding, projected in FY 25-26.

Phase 1 Design and Construction documentation are underway. Phase 2 Design in the investigative stages. Current project projections show that construction, and thus additional funding will be required in FY25 – 26. Construction completion date is dependent upon UPRR casing encroachment permit.

There are no anticipated impacts to the Operating Budget. Over time, a savings may be realized due to less localized flooding, reducing the occurrence of storm-related responses by maintenance staff.

Operating Budget Impacts
In December of 2020, City of Cupertino staff initiated a safety and operational study of the Bollinger Road corridor and is a collaboration between the City of Cupertino and City of San José. The project studied Bollinger Road from De Anza Boulevard to Lawrence Expressway and identifies improvements that will enhance pedestrian, bicycle, motor- vehicle, and transit operations and safety.
 Alternative A includes a road diet where the road would be reduced to one travel lane in each direction, including the provision of a center two-way left turn lane.  Alternative B maintains the existing lane configuration while providing spot improvements, primarily at intersections.

The proposed project will conduct community outreach and initiate the required topographic surveys and traffic analysis as a basis of evaluating the two options. The project will also complete preliminary engineering and final design documents.

Further design and analysis work is required. This includes a topographic and utilities survey of Bollinger Road, preliminary engineering and final design, and traffic analysis. The traffic analysis would determine the potential for the road diet (Alternative A) to increase congestion or divert traffic onto residential streets, and any corresponding mitigation measures to limit that impact. Community outreach efforts should continue in future project phases to ensure community awareness and support of the project.

Year 1 work includes preliminary community outreach and traffic analysis, as well as topographic surveying ($200,000). Year 2 will see continuation of the outreach process, completion of traffic analysis and initial preliminary engineering ($500,000). Year 3 will encompass final preliminary engineering and preparation of final plans, specifications, and estimates.

The proposed project will install canopies with solar mounts in the Civic Center Plaza parking lots and install an extensive system of solar photovoltaic panels, step down transformer, and solar charged batteries with connections to all three Civic Center buildings. The project may also require the removal of some trees along the edge of the parking lot if they are tall enough to interfere with power generation. Finally, the project will install and launch microgrid software that allows City staff to operate the microgrid as it switches between grid power, solar generation use, and battery backup power.

The combination of battery storage, solar, and microgrid controller software can allow for multiple hours of emergency power, depending on outdoor conditions, by charging the system during the sunlight hours or operating in fully islanded mode from grid instability. This allows the Cupertino staff to minimize the use of diesel generator and lowers overall cost to operate the system. This also contributes to a reduction in fossil fuel use called for by the City Council as part of the Cupertino Climate Action Plan and recent direction from the Council to identify a pathway to carbon-neutral municipal facilities by 2035.

The project is estimated to take approximately 27 months in two phases. Phase 1 is essentially a 60% design. The timeline for Phase 1 is approximately 14 months from award. While the total project (inclusive of Phase 1 and 2) is estimated at approximately $908,000 (Federal share $681,000 and local match $227,000), Phase 1 has been awarded for a cost of $129,200. The local cost share required is $32,300. Staff believes initial contracting costs for design professionals will be greater than the that amount. As the project progresses, improved cost estimates will be developed and shared.

The current 1960’s facility is functionally outdated and lacks many of the amenities that are found at successful golf course operations. The 1960’s irrigation system is failing due to age, which results in an excessive use of water and labor to maintain the system. The increasing retail cost of water exacerbates the operational inefficiency. The facilities lack of a driving range and instructional areas limits its potential to attract new users. The existing restaurant needs full renovation to attract banquets, weddings and other non-golf related events. The [Council] direction following the outcome of the Use study (2022) will help determine the level of investment required in the facility.

Location McClellan Road 300’ east of
Club House Lane
Origin of Request Public Works
Project Description
Project Justification
Projected Schedule/5-year Plan information
Operating Budget Impacts
Removal and replacement of the bridge on McClellan Road near the entrance to McClellan Ranch Preserve.

The existing bridge was constructed in 1924 and is beyond its design life. It does not meet current requirements for pedestrian access and roadway loads. Because the bridge does not include sidewalks, the south side of McClellan is closed to pedestrians east of the bridge and on the north side a wooden foot bridge was constructed as a separate structure. The City currently prohibits trucks heavier than three tons from using the bridge due to structural concerns.

A new bridge will complete the pedestrian routes on both sides of McClellan Road and will allow the removal of the truck restriction currently in place.

TBD. Design can be initiated in the first fiscal year, and construction funded in the second fiscal year.

Construction of the project will not increase operating budget expenses.

Origin of Request Public Works
Project Description
Project Justification
Projected Schedule/5-year Plan information
Operating Budget Impacts
Installation of a storm water collection system on Merriman Road to include approximately 800' of storm drain mainline, 3 standard manholes, and 3 new drop inlets/laterals on the eastern side of the roadway. The project may also include surface drainage improvements such as berms and/or pavement recontouring.

A number of parcels on the east side of Merriman Road have historically been subject to storm water runoff from the roadway during significant rainfall events. Construction of the project would minimize the impacts to those properties as well as reduce localized roadway flooding.

TBD
Construction of the project will not increase operating budget expenses. Over time, a savings may be realized due to less localized flooding, reducing the occurrence of storm-related responses by maintenance staff.

Construct a separated Class IV bike lane along Stevens Creek Blvd, between Highway 85 and Foothill Blvd. The project will continue to the west the work that has already been completed in Phase 1 (Stevens Creek Blvd between Tantau and Wolfe) and Phase 2 that is currently in design and construction (Wolfe Road to Highway 85). The project will involve installing precast concrete islands to provide physical separation between the existing bike lane and the vehicle lane between Highway 85 and Foothill Blvd. The project will also include traffic signal modifications at the Highway 85 northbound ramp, Bubb Road, and Foothill Blvd intersections to provide protected bicycle signal phasing.

Project is identified in the Bicycle Transportation Plans and is the highest priority project in the 2016 BTP. Phase 2, between Wolfe Road and Highway 85, is currently in design and construction. Phase 3 is the remaining segment.

Project goals are to enhance bicyclist safety, and encourage bicycling, along Stevens Creek Boulevard. Caltrans involvement necessary for improvements related to Highway 85 bridge and traffic signals.

Project can start as soon as funding is secured. Approximate 6 to 9-month duration for design. Staffing: will require significant PM engagement (0.5 FTE approximately). Funds for Construction can be allocated in the FY following Design initiation.

It is anticipated that separated bike lanes will require additional maintenance to sweep bike lanes clean of debris. This cost will be in addition to normal street sweeping operations and will be included in the Operating budget.
