ATTACHMENT A
FY2024 – 2025 CIP Status and FY2025 – 2026 CIP Proposal
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) contains 28 active projects.
Four projects were successfully completed this fiscal year, with one additional project scheduled to be completed prior to July 2025. The FY 25-26 CIP proposal considers the current staffing levels and ensures that future projects are planned in a way that aligns with available resources for effective execution.
This document provides a summary of the existing projects, broken into five categories of projects, for ease of discussion. Within each section on the type of project, you will find a summary of the existing projects, proposed projects, unfunded projects, projects that can be defunded, and the five-year plan for each of the categories.
CIP projects typically fall into four categories: Parks, Streets and Infrastructure, Transportation, and Facilities. This year we are introducing a fifth category – Sustainability projects. It is a more accurate reflection of the City’s goals to highlight efforts towards Sustainability and Resilience.
LEGEND:
1 Facilities: Yellow
2 Parks: Green
3 Streets and Infrastructure: Orange
4 Transportation/ Bike and Pedestrian: Blue
5 Sustainability: Maroon
Allocation of each project into a ‘category’ does not have financial implications and many projects could be placed into more than one category. However, the classification is useful for reviewing the distribution of funds to the type of assets receiving capital improvements.
Wherever possible, we use color coding to illustrate the project category, as indicated in the list above.

Facilities Condition Assessment Project
In 2018 the “Comprehensive Facility Condition and Use Efficiency Assessment” report was completed. This report was updated in 2022 by the “Facility Condition Assessment” (FCA). The FCA reviewed 48 facilities at 24 locations. The report identified $28.8 million of renewal projects, with $4 million in priority one projects. The 2022 FCA report explained that “…conditions in this [priority one] category require immediate action to: a) correct a cited safety hazard, b) stop accelerated deterioration, and/or c) return a facility to operation. Deficiencies in this category should be addressed in 0-12 Months.”
Since the updated report was issued, six projects have been initiated: Senior Center Fire Alarm system (FAS) upgrade, Quinlan Community Center (QCC) AC Chiller replacements, Sports Center Locker and Shower rooms improvements, and the replacement of three flat roofs at Sports Center, QCC, and Senior Center. Other completed FCA projects include: Sports Center Fire Control Center panel replacement, and the Sports Center Seismic Retrofit.
The cost estimates in the report are based on 2022 figures, and an escalation rate of roughly 5% per year should be applied to account for the projected cost of incomplete projects. This leads to a 21.55% escalation for 2026. The current approved project funding, including the $423,420 in CDBG funding (designated specifically for Senior Center improvements), totals $2,429,890. Of this, $41,342 remains unencumbered and available for new projects.
The highest-priority projects include upgrades to life-safety systems at five facilities, estimated to cost approximately $890,000. The FY25-26 FCA project funding request is for an additional $940,000.
Improvements to the Library life-safety systems are also needed, as are repairs to the Sports Center Shower and Locker rooms. It is planned to request additional funding for those projects in FY26-27.

C. Evaluation of Facilities CIP Projects to Defund:
The FCA projects are critical health and safety improvements to existing facilities. ADA improvements are similarly critical, and federal mandates require that the City continues to make improvements to accessibility to public facilities. The work remaining on the Library Expansion project is completely grant-funded. The City does not recommend defunding any of these projects.
D. Unfunded Facilities CIP Projects:
In the past five years, several projects have been proposed and remain unfunded. The list that follows notes the years projects were proposed and projected cost in FY25-26 dollars.

*Note: Estimated costs reported in 2022 for the renovation of the facility that included seismic reinforcement to meet ‘essential facility’ requirements, HVAC, electrical, life/safety, and IT systems replacements and a complete interior renovation were reported as $29M. Performing the same scope at a level of ‘non-essential’ facility was estimated at $27M, in 2025. Cost estimates should be revisited, in light of current market conditions. The upper end of the projected cost was for a replacement City Hall building as envisioned in the Civic Center Master Plan.
City Hall
Since the seismic issues following the 1986 renovation were discovered, numerous plans and master plans have been developed. Improvements to the building alone do not address the parking limitations. Options to rework civic center have been investigated and analyzed. City Hall renovation a significant project, both culturally and economically, that has stalled due to the ongoing debates on the appropriate magnitude and scope of the project.
Renovation Option: $30M + $5M parking
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 7 of 40
Renovate the City Hall building within the existing footprint, using the existing structure and site plan. While the driving force of the scope will be the seismic upgrade, the development triggers accessibility (ADA) and infrastructure requirements.
Additionally, the interior layout of the space does not meet the needs of the workforce or the community. An interior renovation to create community meeting spaces and an updated workplace will be necessary. In this scenario, it is possible to consider adding a story within the confines of the existing footprint. This will have additional cost but will allow for more flexibility in programming the interior uses of the space.
The Civic Center regularly has a shortage of parking spaces due to the popularity of the Cupertino Library and events held at both the library and Community Hall. To increase the number of parking spaces, above-ground, below-ground, or off-site options would need to be considered in this scenario. A separate project could be generated that analyzes feasible options for parking.
• PROS: less time and effort in the design phase, less expensive for the building project (the overall cost, if considering the parking solutions, may be a significant additional cost).
• CONS: Building renovations are complicated projects with significant financial investment. Compromises in programming are made to work within the confines of the original enclosure. An additional parking area is not included within the building footprint and would require additional dedicated funding.
Replacement Option: up to $80M
Using the 2015 Civic Center Master Plan as the foundation, replace City Hall and portions of the Civic Center with a new building and integrated parking to better meet the needs of the community, providing more engaging community spaces and a more effective workplace for the City business.
• PROS: more effective spatial and economic solutions are possible, making City Hall and Civic Center a functional hub for the City. Adding underground parking would be a priority.
• CONS: A new building and parking structure may be as much as 2 times more expensive than a building renovation project without parking. The design of a new facility will typically require a lengthy and costly public engagement process in addition to the design and construction process.
If Council wishes to activate the City Hall project,
(a) additional funding for design and construction, and additional staffing would be required.
(b) direction on the scope of work would be required (renovation of the existing facility, renovation of the existing with an added story, renovation to essential services structural level.
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 8 of 40
City Hall Annex
The City Hall Annex property was purchased in 2021, and the renovation project for the facility was funded at $3M in FY21-22. The proximity of this property to the Civic Center, and its central location within the City, lends itself to numerous uses, including a satellite and/or interim City Hall facility. Council approved proceeding with the renovation of the facility to function as an interim facility for City staff while the City Hall building was under construction.
The program centered on providing workplace and transactional areas for the public-facing Permit Center and some Finance/Business transactions that bring the public to City Hall regularly. The Council approved adding the Emergency Operations Center to the program in late 2022, since the preliminary cost estimates reported that this upgrade of the scope would cost an additional $500,000.
When the EOC scope was added, staff made the decision to delay the request for additional project funding for the added scope until the project was ready to award a contract to a general contractor for construction so that more definitive costs would be discussed. However, when cost estimates on the 65% set of drawings and specifications came in at $6.7M in 2024, the decision was made to pause the project until the City Hall project direction was decided, so that priorities and cost-cutting measures could be evaluated in a fuller context. An updated scope of work, with value-engineering options, and cost estimate would be required to continue work on the project.
With the news of the inflated costs, numerous options were investigated, from scope reductions to a completely reduced program of ‘carpet-and-paint’ only, and other code required renovations such as accessible entries. The most reduced scope of work was estimated at $2M.
While developing the program for the City Hall Annex building as City’s Permit Center and EOC, staff identified additional cost impacts, including:
• Increase of construction costs due to the addition of the EOC program and infrastructure. The early estimate was that the addition of the EOC would add approximately $500,000 in construction costs.
• Increase of soft costs due to the addition of the EOC program. Cost estimate for soft costs is approximately $1.5M, leaving $1.5M 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. 2023 estimates for 2024 construction were estimated at $6.7M without moving/logistics cost, furniture, and other contingencies accounted for.
In order to move forward with the renovation of the City Hall Annex, Council must approve additional funding for the project. Staff is in the process of developing an updated cost estimate that includes options for Council’s consideration.
Stocklmeir, Blesch and Blue Pheasant properties (scope and cost unknown)
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 9 of 40
Many options for the Stocklmeir property have also been pursued in the years since the property was purchased. Some residents have expressed their desire to make the property into a museum for 1930’s farm life. The Cupertino Historical Society (CHS) and Rotary Club have made proposals in the past to facilitate projects at the site, but for various reasons including funding concerns, nothing has moved forward. Improvements to the facilities are complicated by its location within a special flood hazard area, and many challenges to provide an accessible facility.
In order to move forward with a project at the Stocklmeir, Blesch and/or Blue Pheasant properties, Council should provide direction on the type of facility or project desired and allocate funding and additional staffing resources for the project.

FY25-26: The ADA Improvements project and FCA project are essentially ongoing projects, renewed annually. Addressing the most critical deficiencies identified in the 2022 FCA is a priority, especially life-safety systems. The current FCA projects, the Senior Center Fire Alarm system (FAS) upgrades, Quinlan Community Center Chiller replacements, and the flat roof replacements at QCC, Sports Center and Senior Center will be completed in FY25-26. If
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 10 of 40
approved, the additional FY25-26 funding will be directed to FAS upgrades at five facilities noted in Table 2.
FY26-27: CIP will request additional funding to replace the FAS in the Cupertino Library building, and to complete the renovations to the Sports Center shower and locker rooms. In this fiscal year we may be able to coordinate these projects with infrastructure improvements at the Library to electrify the appliances, improve energy efficiency, and increase the resiliency of the facility to better serve the community as a cooling/heating center. Public Works (PW) staff is currently working with Santa Clara County Library District (SCCLD) and the Santa Clara County (SCC) to develop a program and technical requirements for this initiative.
FY26-27: When the CIP division successfully fills the two open positions currently under recruitment, work will resume on the Library Expansion project. The work at the Library is funded by a $1 million grant secured by Congressman Ro Khanna. Anticipated completion of the project is in 2027.
FY27-28 and onwards: addressing the highest priority projects in the FCA will be ongoing for both CIP and the Operations staff. More roof repairs are needed and FAS, HVAC systems, and other critical systems need improvements. The FCA project may help to address additional improvements to the various Recreation facilities (Sports Center, McClellan Ranch Preserve, Blackberry Farm, Senior Center, Quinlan Community Center) that could improve accessibility and infrastructure, advancing safety, functionality, and revenue-generating capacity of these facilities.
The CIP welcomes the opportunity to take on projects to renovate or replace City Hall and the City Hall Annex. These are significant investments, both financially and on staffing resources, that must be considered in conjunction with the overall City annual budget and financing options. If these projects do have the support of Council and the community, CIP will require an additional senior-level full-time employee (FTE) to manage those projects.

• The Jollyman Park All-Inclusive Playground is under construction and will be completed before summer 2025.
• Lawrence-Mitty Park and Trail is in the design phase. As part of the due diligence for this project, we are generating cost estimates based on the schematic design progress and will return to City Council for review before advancing the design process further. • The Park Amenity Improvements project continues to supply new benches, picnic tables, and other vital features to parks as required.
• The Annual Playground Replacement project will activate once CIP recruitments are successful. Varian Park, Little Rancho Park and Canyon Oak Park are targets for improvements.
B. FY25-26 Proposed Parks CIP Projects : none.
C. Evaluation of Parks CIP Projects to defund:
• The Jollyman AIPG is nearing completion.
• The Lawrence-Mitty Park and Trail project is in contract through to the end of design and documentation. The funding for the project comes from a developer agreement that would need to be revisited if defunding were to be considered. • The Park Amenity Improvements project could be defunded but has been a valuable resource to address needed improvements and community requests/concerns in our parks. • The Playground Replacement project could be defunded since we are not in-contract presently, but the need to replace our aging playgrounds persists as an ongoing safety concern. If not replaced, many playgrounds will need to be closed, at least in part. • The habitat monitoring at the McClellan Ranch Preserve west parking lot is a requirement of the project’s California Department of Fish and Wildlife permit.
The City does not recommend defunding any of these projects.

Family Restroom
Conversion
FY25 -26 This project aims to better serve the community by converting one of Blackberry Farm's four restrooms into a family restroom and pool changing area. Blackberry Farm is a popular pool and park facility, and is frequented by families with young children. As a result, there is a high demand for a family restroom and changing area. This project is a priority of the Parks and Recreation Department to address public requests.

Memorial Park
The City recently completed the Memorial Park Master Plan, which provides an extensive list of improvements to revitalize and update the park. The plan was assembled by collecting and incorporating public input through an extensive outreach campaign. That process produced a robust road map that will guide the City regarding park improvements for decades. Recently, staff has observed some concern from the public and City Council regarding the cost of the improvements proposed the plan and has heard suggestions regarding reduction of the plan’s scope. Due to the extensive public engagement and input received, it is recommended that the plan remain unchanged, and that projects within the plan be prioritized and scheduled as public sentiment and available funding dictates. At this time, due to fiscal constraints, staff is not proposing any projects for Memorial Park.
Blackberry Farm Golf Course
The irrigation system at Blackberry Farm has long exceeded its useful life cycle. The system is antiquated, is subject to multiple breaks yearly, and is not efficient in its water use for golf course landscaping. An irrigation replacement project is currently proposed for year 4 of the 5- year CIP and is anticipated to cost $1.6M. This project is anticipated to save the City approximately $65,000 annually in maintenance, repairs, and water use, and will improve water efficiency at this property. This project will safeguard against major failures that would be expensive to repair, would result in down time for the golf course operations (including lost revenue), and would help to protect against environmental impacts to Stevens Creek. The project has an approximate return on investment of 24-years, reduces water use, and safeguards both Stevens Creek and players’ ability to utilize the course.

FY25-26: Jollyman AIPG will be completed in 2025, and the Lawrence-Mitty Park and Trail project could be completed in 2027. We continue to work on replacing playgrounds with safety concerns and dispersing improved park amenities to locations with the greatest need. Work on the design, procurement, and installation of new equipment at playgrounds could resume in the Fall of 2025.
FY26-27 and FY27-28: Lawrence-Mitty Park and Trail project work will continue, and work on the Playgrounds replacements can resume. Park Amenities upgrades will continue.
FY28-29: Initiating the improvements to the irrigation system at the Blackberry Farm golf course is also a priority to improve efficient use of our water resources. Staffing prevents initiation of this project in years 1-3, but in year 4 this will be a recommended priority project.
FY29-30: Blackberry Farm golf course irrigation system improvements will continue into this fiscal year.
Providing Shade Structures at various park locations was a Council-stated priority in years past, and improving shade opportunities is a priority of the PRSMP. Current CIP staff can not initiate these projects in FY25-26, but the City will continue to pursue grant funding for these amenities.

• The BPMP project will be completed in the summer of 2025. • The engineering contract for the Stevens Creek Bridge project has been awarded, and the investigation into potential options will commence.
• The City will hire an engineering firm to assess the current conditions, provide design alternatives, and develop the necessary documentation and cost estimates. Once the documentation is prepared, the project will be considered "shovel-ready," increasing its chances of securing additional grant funding to complete the project. • Procurement for the City Lighting LED Improvements project is in progress, and installations will begin once the fixtures are delivered (Anticipated completion is September 2025).
Vai Avenue Outfall project is noted as completed and as an active project, due to the successful temporary repair of the outfall pipe section this fiscal year. However, the replacement of the outfall pipe section is not yet completed. Staff will coordinate permanent repairs through Valley Water as part of their CIP project to stabilize Regnart Creek in this reach. This will create efficiencies in permitting and ensure a repair that is compatible with Valley Water’s efforts.
B. FY25-26 Proposed Streets and Infrastructure CIP Projects The CIP FY25-26 proposal for new Streets and Infrastructure projects includes one project to repair three grade 5 (most significantly damaged) Storm Drain Outfalls identified in the 2024 report on the condition of the City’s storm drain outfalls.

2024 Outfall Report – Repair projects
The purpose of the 2024 Storm Drain Outfall Condition Assessment report was to inventory the storm drain assets and to determine necessary improvements and maintenance activities for the outfall pipes and structures. The City maintains 175 outfall pipe segments, totaling approximately 17,051 feet, within the storm drain network. The outfall pipes discharge urban rainfall runoff from the City’s storm drain system into various creeks/channels managed by the Santa Clara Valley Water District (Valley Water). The report documented observations of the condition of outfall pipes, along with their corresponding outfall structure, and nearest upstream structure. The primary assessment method for the pipeline segments and outfall structures consisted of closed circuit television (CCTV), visual examinations and documentation through photographs.
The report assessed 205 pipe segments across 175 sites. 31% show structural defects with significant defect grades (NASCO grades 4 and 5). 19% have significant defects that affect operations and maintenance. Most of the defective pipes were CMP outfall pipes that were installed consistent with Valley Water specifications for outfall pipes which were in place at the time of installation. Grade 3, 4, and 5 defects were common in pipelines that were constructed from corrugated metal pipe (CMP). This is due to the susceptibility of CMP to corrosion, which leads to holes developing in the pipes. Though not as common, several CMP pipelines also showed signs of deformation.
The report also assessed the condition of 117 outfall structures. Most of the structures were in good to moderate condition. Of the 117 outfalls structures three were in level 5 defective condition, and three were in level 4 defective condition. The City will coordinate with Valley Water to plan for the most efficient and cost-effective manner in repairing these outfall structures.
The FY25-26 Outfalls Repair project funding request is for $950,000 to repair outfall pipe segments that have significant defects.
C. Evaluation of Streets and Infrastructure CIP Projects to Defund The BPMP project will be complete in Summer 2025. The Stevens Creek Bridge and McClellan Road Bridge projects are largely funded by external grants, and address health and safety concerns. The LED Streetlight project is in-contract, will reduce our energy usage, and directly addresses dark-sky concerns.
The City does not recommend defunding any of the currently funded projects.

2018 Storm Drain Master Plan projects
The 2018 Storm Drain Master Plan (SDMP) established a prioritized capital improvement program to reduce the risk of flooding within the City of Cupertino. The basic objective of the report was to evaluate the flow capacity of the City’s storm drain network and recommend improvements to enhance storm drain capacity at key locations within the City. The first priority of the SDMP was Pumpkin Fiesta, Phases 1 and 2. The City completed Phase 1 improvements in 2023, which should mitigate flooding for an area the had experienced repeated storm drain overflows. Phase 2 is not currently scheduled due to funding resources.
Further, the Phase 1 improvements should help to mitigate some of the concerns that Phase 2 is intended to address. Staff will continue to monitor the City’s storm drain “hot spots” during rain events and will propose projects as necessary to respond to the City’s needs.
2020 Fiber Master Plan
The City has successfully owned and operated a limited fiber network for more than 10 years— and the network has created real value for the City. Specifically, the City has offset the cost of
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 23 of 40
leased circuits in connecting buildings and traffic infrastructure. The network has also provided more capacity, at a higher level of reliability, than would commercial services. Having a dedicated fiber network provides many options for the City to address issues raised in the 2017 Cupertino Communications Risk Report prepared by the Cupertino Office of Emergency Services; concerns about communications resiliency for the City government and the public were also highlighted by the demonstrated vulnerability of commercial communications networks in recent public safety power shutoff (PSPS) events. The fiber network also provides the underpinning of future Smart City infrastructure and services under consideration by the City. The report has a number of recommendations for the fiber-optic network going forward, and one of those is to construct new City-owned and operated fiber to connect City facilities and expand the emergency network capabilities of the system in the process. Following this recommendation six projects were proposed in for FY23-24 but were postponed to allow the City time to seek grant funding to support the projects. Expanding the City’s Fiber network remains a priority and increases the effectiveness of all services that the City provides.
Regnart Road Investigation Report
The Regnart Road Investigation Report identified 6 priority sites that needed immediate attention. Over the last several years, 2 of the sites were fully address with the Regnart Road Improvement Project Phase 1. The City made various minor repairs and improvements along Regnart Road to offset the immediacy to respond to three other priority sites. Priority site 4 will be addressed with an upcoming Storm Drain Outfall project.

School Walk Audit Implementation project
In FY16-17, Cupertino Safe Routes to School (SR2S) worked with each public school in Cupertino to develop a list of infrastructure improvements called the Walk Audit Report. The report details improvements that would make walking and biking safer, and drop-off and pick- up smoother. In FY19-20, SR2S worked with each school to update the list and categorize items into three tiers. Tier 1 and 2 items are almost complete, and the following Tier 3 items are currently being analyzed. Recommended work for these projects is anticipated to begin in the latter part of 2025. Exhibit A-1 has illustrations of the projects listed below.
Lincoln Elementary/ Monta Vista High School
1) Hyannisport Drive at Fort Baker Drive: - Reconstruct intersection to close slip lane onto Fort Baker Drive. Modify the northeast corner of the intersection by removing the right turn slip lane and reduce the corner radius for the right turning traffic to enhance the pedestrian safety.
Sedgwick Elementary
1) Phil Lane Drop-Off: Widen sidewalk on Phil Lane. The sidewalk along Phil Lane will be widened from 5 feet to approx. 12 to 13 feet, and this will involve relocation of curb including one drain inlet. Engineering, surveying, and staking work are required for the removal of four parking spots and modifications to two school driveways.
2) Tantau Ave/Barnhart Ave: Widen sidewalk on Tantau Avenue to match existing paint on street. The sidewalk along Tantau Ave will be widened from 5 feet to approx. 12 to 13 feet. This will require relocation of curb, engineering, surveying, staking work, and modifications/realignments of the high-visibility crosswalk on Barnhart Avenue to increase visibility (after widening sidewalk).
B. FY25 – 26 Proposed Transportation CIP Projects : none.
C. Evaluation of Transportation CIP Projects to Defund
• Stevens Creek Boulevard Class IV Bikeways is the top priority from the Bicycle Transportation plan, and a Tier One priority of the Pedestrian Transportation Plan – improving vehicular, bicyclist and pedestrian safety along one of Cupertino’s busiest arteries was considered a highly important project.
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 29 of 40
• The Bollinger Road Corridor Study will evaluate safety concerns along this corridor and is grant funded.
• The Roadway Safety Improvements project is also grant funded with local matching funds. • The Tamien Innu project, specifically the East segment, has been delayed due to design efforts to address physical constraints and Valley Water requirements. If further progress cannot be made, this project could be defunded. However, it is funded by developer and donation funds and grants.
Staff does not recommend defunding the transportation projects listed above.

The Active Transportation Plan (ATP) will guide project prioritization for future bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure projects. Through an extensive, multiphase community outreach strategy, the ATP will develop capital project recommendations based on public input, safety needs, and mobility goals. While no specific projects are currently defined, the ATP, once adopted in 2026, will help determine which active transportation projects are selected for the CIP. This process ensures that future transportation investments align with community needs and City objectives.

• The PV project contracts were approved in February and the design phase is underway. • CIP is working with SVCE to develop design and bid documents for the Service Center expansion of the EVCS for the City’s fleet vehicles.
• Silicon Valley (SV) Hopper EV parking: Cupertino was part of a successful Dept. of Transportation Charging Facility Infrastructure coalition grant application lead by SVCE and San Jose that would have provided around $500,000 for 7 dual-port level 2 chargers and 1 dual-port level 3 DC Fast Charger behind the Sports Center for public and Hopper use. That award is uncertain now under the current administration. This project is queued due to staffing constraints.

B. FY25 – 26 Proposed Sustainability CIP Projects : none.
C. Evaluation of Sustainability CIP Projects to Defund
• The EVCS expansion at Service Center project is necessary for the ongoing electrification of the City’s fleet. This project is currently funded and supported through SVCE. • The PV project is in contract and will reduce the City’s utility costs. • The SV Hopper EV parking would address the need for charging of the shuttles’ fleet of electric vehicles.
We do not recommend defunding these projects.
D. Unfunded Sustainability CIP Projects
The Sustainability team outlined a number of projects that may be proposed as CIP projects once scope, costs, and benefits are further developed. The list that follows notes the years proposed and projected cost in FY25-26 dollars.

Building Electrification
Analysis
FY25 -26 Analysis of top gas -consuming City facilities to examine the current appliance infrastructure, evaluate the
building envelope, and explore available market
alternatives for electrification. This will provide the required details for the cost and timeline of each
facility's upgrade needs. Sustainability team is presently working with BayREN to analyze five facilities as a free service. Other facilities will require an engineering
consultant team to be engaged and can be funded with
CIP Prelim Planning & Design (420-99-047) funds.
~$30,000
Quinlan Community Center
Electrification
FY25 -26 Quinlan Community Center has the highest gas
consumption (33.54% of the City’s overall gas usage)
and requires an engineered solution due to roof and
building space constraints, complex building envelope,
and energy efficiency considerations.
~$8M
Library Electrification &
Resiliency upgrades
FY25 -26 As the second -highest gas user (22.59% of the City’s overall gas usage), the Library's electrification must be preceded by measures to reduce reliance on reheat
energy. The project will optimize the HVAC system
before replacing the HVAC and hot water boiler with an
electric alternative. Electrification may be best pursued alongside a Resiliency Upgrade to the building, to
facilitate use as the Community's Cooling and Heating
Center. This will probably include a photovoltaic system and battery back-up system. CIP is currently working
with SCCLD to develop a mutually beneficial scope of
work.
~$8M

Blackberry Farm Pools Water
Heating Upgrades
FY25 -26 With high gas usage (approximately 14.27% of the City’s overall gas usage), the Blackberry Farm pool project
presents an opportunity to integrate solar thermal
storage. The plan involves replacing showers with
primary solar thermal and storage and backup small air- source heat pump water heaters. The pool heaters
could be replaced with air-source heat pump
technology in conjunction with solar and storage.
TBD
Electrification of other City
Facilities
FY25 -26 Senior Center, Sports Center, BBF Recreation Buildings (medium priorities), Monta Vista Recreation Center,
Service Center, McClellan Ranch Preserve, and other
Park Facilities (lower priorities) can be upgraded to
electric appliances to provide long-term sustainability benefits and reduce operational costs.
TBD
Replace Non -Functional Turf
& Improve water efficiency
FY25 -26 Government properties must stop watering non - functional turf by January 1, 2027, to comply with state mandate AB 1572. It is recommended to start
replacement no later than early 2027 to avoid aesthetic concerns regarding landscaping.
TBD
E. Sustainability CIP – 5-year Plan: the Sustainability projects can be included in the five-year CIP plan when scope of work and project cost estimates are initiated for the projects listed above.
Staff will look for external funding to support potential sustainability projects prior to proposing them.

Proposed annual CIP funding that exceeds $2M/year will require additional funds beyond the $2M annual funding being allocated to the program. Where possible, staff will search for external funding to address funding requests in excess of $2M.
Despite facing challenges such as reduced staffing and scaled-back funding, CIP has continued to deliver projects. Currently, the program is operating with 2.25 full-time employees (FTEs)
FY25-26 CIP proposal and 5-year Plan Page 39 of 40
managing a workload that exceeds the capacity of four FTEs. Recruitment efforts are underway to fill two vacant positions. The CIP team is currently focused on maximizing productivity despite resource constraints. Looking ahead, filling these open positions is essential to maintaining a sustainable and effective working environment.
In summary, the proposed FY 25-26 CIP includes ongoing funding for two existing facilities projects and funding for storm drain utility repairs. The projects proposed this year are a result of information from existing facility assessments, which show the need for extensive improvements and repairs to the City’s aging infrastructure. Due to the extensive nature of the work needed, staff envisions some of these projects becoming regular or even annual requests for the foreseeable future. The program has 28 existing projects that are a priority to close out.
This year, the proposal for new projects was driven by the need to implement health and safety- driven projects and was further impacted by limited staffing resources and $2M in funding.
The proposed five-year plan focuses on rehabilitating critical infrastructure that has aged beyond its life cycle. This is a common theme throughout America, and while the City has focused its rehabilitation efforts in recent years on revitalizing its pavement condition, the City must now shift some of this focus onto its buildings and storm drain system to address public health and safety issues.
