Subject: Fw: Request to Halt Unapproved Gas-to-Electric Appliance Ordinance Effort Date: Sunday, April 13, 2025 10:02:03 PM

[Writing on behalf of myself, as a Cupertino resident, voter and taxpayer.] Dear City Clerk,
Would you please include in written communications for the upcoming city council meeting.

Dear Mayor Liang Chao, Vice Mayor Kitty Moore, and Cupertino City Council Members,
I am writing to express my concern regarding a recent social media post from the City of Cupertino soliciting resident input on a potential ordinance to limit or ban gas appliances in homes and businesses.

To my knowledge, this initiative was neither discussed during the recent Community Work Plan (CWP) process nor prioritized or funded by the Council. I respectfully request that the Council and Mayor direct staff to halt this initiative immediately. Proceeding with a project that lacks Council approval risks misallocation of limited staff resources and funding, which could be better directed toward projects explicitly supported by Council—such as the urban forest initiative.

Additionally, I would like to remind the Council that the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit has already ruled against a similar ordinance passed by the City of Berkeley, citing federal preemption under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act. Pursuing a similar path in Cupertino could expose the City to unnecessary legal challenges.

It is also important to consider the unique demographic needs of Cupertino.

Nearly 70% of our residents are of Asian descent, and gas appliances are essential for traditional Asian and Indian cooking methods, both in homes and in our restaurants. Attempts to limit or ban gas usage do not reflect the cultural realities or culinary practices of a significant portion of our community.

Given that this effort was not approved through the CWP process, I urge the Council to cancel it immediately and focus on initiatives that reflect Council direction and community priorities.

Thank you for your attention to this matter and for your continued commitment to thoughtful governance and cultural inclusivity.

Sincerely,
San Rao (Cupertino resident and voter)

Court ruling:

California Restaurant Association v. City of Berkeley (2023): On April 17, 2023, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned Berkeley's 2019 ordinance that banned natural gas piping in new construction. The court ruled that the federal Energy Policy and Conservation Act preempts local regulations that effectively ban gas appliances. ​
Sonoma County's Suspension of Natural Gas Ban (2024): Following the 9th Circuit's decision, Sonoma County suspended its prohibition on natural gas appliances in new construction in August 2024, acknowledging that federal law overrides such local bans. ​
Santa Rosa: In May 2024, Santa Rosa suspended enforcement of its all-electric code for new residential constructions.

Sunnyvale: In May 2024, Sunnyvale suspended its natural gas ban to avoid potential litigation, acknowledging that its regulations were structured differently from Berkeley's.​
San Mateo County: In May 2024, San Mateo County paused its efforts to promote all-electric buildings in response to the legal developments.​ San Luis Obispo:

April 18, 2023: The City Council voted unanimously to suspend its natural gas ban for new construction in response to the appellate court's ruling against Berkeley's similar ordinance. ​Cal Coast News
July 18, 2023: The city announced a pause in enforcing its all-electric new buildings ordinance, allowing permits for mixed-fuel buildings until further notice. ​

City communications on the project:
“
The City of Cupertino is considering a policy to transition home appliances and equipment that use natural gas to those that use electricity. This transition is essential for fighting climate change.

To help inform and guide this draft policy, we invite you to share your knowledge, experience, and opinions on home electrification. This refers to using electric appliances and equipment, such as electric panel upgrades, induction cooktops, heat pump water heaters, and heat pump air conditioning and heating systems.

What could this policy look like?
The City is carefully considering options for what is best for our community and is limited on what we can do legally. Here are a few concepts:

Option 1: (most ambitious) Require homes to meet a whole-house energy efficiency standard.

Option 2: (somewhat ambitious)Require an “electric-ready” home (panel upgrade and wiring) and allow for the switch from gas to electric to happen as appliances need replacing.

Option 3: (least ambitious) Phase in requirements over time, e.g. require “electric-ready” homes now and a stricter energy efficiency standard in a few years.

Option 4: (not ambitious) Support the policies and programs created by state and regional districts and consider local policy at a later date.

Each of these options comes with some concerns and challenges to overcome. We need your help planning the best path for Cupertino. “

Dear City Council,

Please do what you can immediately to prevent the removal of the Terrace Apartments from our City. This complex with 94 homes is the only large complex that serves the Monta Vista tri-school area. This promotes diversity in our community. Many of the folks are immigrants who are not yet citizens and given the current political climate, it is understandable why you might not be hearing from them. Please find a letter attached that I have sent to the board and to you previously.

Additionally, this is a remarkably poor use of our tax dollars. For every $1M assessed, we are paying nearly $300 a year in supplemental taxes to fund bonds, which are being used to displace our own residents. This is unthinkable. I sincerely hope that you can talk some sense in to the college board as there are better solutions.

In addition to the attached, the Villages at Cupertino Apartment Complex has just been sold for $207M or $433K per apartment. “On a per-unit basis, the price that the Rockpoint Group affiliate paid for the recent transaction points to a per-unit value that is about 2.8% less than what was paid for the 110 units about two years ago.” By comparison, the Terrace is proposed to sell for $713K per apartment! Similarly, Villages has 27 acres (sold for $7.6M per acre).

Terrace has 5.4 acres (proposed to sell for $12.4M per acre). Prometheus paid $52M for a complex that was in much poorer condition than it had expected and is hoping to sell at $67M.

Terrace does not look like a good deal. In my opinion, it is a mis-use of public funds. See:
https://www.siliconvalley.com/2025/04/03/cupertino-home-economy-apple-property-real- estate-apartment-jobs-tech/
If it is turned into student-housing, Cupertino will not receive property taxes on that property but will be on the hook to provide services. Will the College District also force the City to install traffic lights so that students going to De Anza College can also cross McClellan Road? Keep in mind that there is an intention to also bus students to Sunnyvale and Los Altos Hills campuses, 8.6 and 6.5 miles away.

Somehow, the district is saying what they’re doing is human-centered. They’ll provide relocation services and residents will be able to find “comparable homes” within a 10-mile radius!!! Evicting people 10 miles away is wrong and cruel. The district is fine kicking them out of our schools, our school district, our college district, and our City.

Please use any and all measures possible to prevent this significant change-in-use.

Regards,
Rhoda
1 RE: Proposed Community College Student Housing Purchase Gone Awry Dear Foothill-De Anza (FHDA) Board of Trustees,
In 2020, your constituents voted for an $898M bond to provide “local students an affordable education” which contained a line item to “plan, construct, acquire or contribute to affordable employee and student housing units.” I applaud the district for considering the cost of housing as part of providing an affordable education. Unfortunately, after countless studies and expenses, the Board has been misled by its consultant in entertaining the purchase of the McClellan Terrace Apartments on 7954 McClellan Rd, Cupertino, presently owned by Prometheus. The consultant failed to provide you with the data you needed to make an informed decision.

I am asking you to abandon this proposal and consider options that would better serve our community. A description of these issues follows: the proposed student rent is too high; the apartments have a large K-12 population that would be permanently displaced; the apartments are more affordable than most in our community and simply replacing residents does not help to improve the issue of affordability in our community; the purchase is likely a bad real estate deal; there are better options that are closer to transit and shopping. Permanently displacing Cupertino residents robs our community of economic diversity and disproportionally impacts non-citizen residents who fuel Silicon Valley’s economy.

The venture fails to achieve the goal of providing an affordable education as the consultant has targeted the rent at 30% to 50% of AMI (Area Median Income). Why didn’t the consultant provide an actual target rent? 50% of AMI for a single person is $64.5K. A student working at a minimum wage of $18.20 per hour for 15 hours a week for 50 weeks a year would earn $13,650 (20 hours weekly for 50 weeks yields $18,200). Targeting 50% of AMI per the requirements of the bond is a misuse of public funds.

The permanent displacement of sixty-seven K-12 public-school students from the only apartment complex within a half-mile of the Monta Vista tri-school area is wrong. No one told your constituents that the bond measure would result in our neighbors being evicted and permanently displaced from our schools and from our city.

Although the consultant proudly announced that De Anza students presently reside at the complex, she ignored that the number one selling point of these apartments is their proximity to our public K-12 schools: Lincoln Elementary and Kennedy Middle in the Cupertino Union School District (CUSD) and Monta Vista High School in the Fremont Union High School District (FUHSD). Prometheus’ tagline for their 94 homes is: “Garden Apartments within Walking Distance to Top Cupertino Schools.” There are 33 CUSD children and 34 FUHSD children who reside in these 94 homes (2 children attend FUHSD at other locations) for a total of 65 students attending the adjacent school sites. What will you tell them? The tri-school area is heavily impacted by school traffic and having sixty-five K-12 students within a half-mile of K-12 schools reduces traffic and pollution. The proposed change-in-use of 2 the Terrace Apartments to student housing would be a significant impact that permanently removes 94 homes that pipeline into the adjacent K-12 public schools. There is no greater good in the concept of permanently evicting grade K-12 students for the benefit of grade 13-14 students who could live elsewhere.

Terrace rents are more affordable than others in the area. Yet, the consultant said that residents could be relocated and that Prometheus would assist with relocation to their other properties.

According to a Zillow search, as compared with the Terrace’s maximum rent of $3720, there are only fourteen 2 bedroom / 2 bath homes of at least 1000 square feet that rent for under $4000.

Prometheus properties, are more expensive and outside of the tri-school area. And the vast majority of other comparable rental properties are more expensive. Residents would be permanently displaced from our community.

Terrace is the only large complex that is in the Monta Vista tri-school area. Families would not be relocated, rather they would be displaced and likely, displaced outside of our community’s school district, which is within FHDA’s boundaries! Evicting future (and current) Foothill/De Anza students is wrong. There are no two-bedroom two-bath (2br/2ba) large complexes that retain all three schools.

Is this a bad real estate deal? The apartment complex is very old; it was built in 1971. There’s a reason why rents are lower there than elsewhere in Cupertino in spite of its proximity to the tri- school area. Prometheus acquired the property in 2022 and has a net assessed value of $52M, per Santa Clara County Assessor Records. FHDA proposes to purchase the property for $67M and remodel it for $28M for a total of nearly $100M. Is spending $100M on a property that was assessed at half that three years ago a good deal?
There are better solutions for our FHDA students. Having student housing on the De Anza College campus near Stevens Creek would be closer to the college, closer to public transportation, and closer to shopping. And the College’s surveys indicated that students preferred to be on campus. There are large open areas on the campus’ 112 acres and the college would be able to build a building to modern safety and environmental standards that would meet the exact needs of the student population.

Alternatively, the 123-room Aloft Hotel on 10165 North De Anza Boulevard is delinquent in its mortgage and is facing foreclosure. Its valuation is under $40M. Because the local hotels are under financial stress, it is unlikely to be purchased by a hotel. To wit, the construction of two new Cupertino hotels (near Goodyear Tire and at Vallco Village’s Duke of Edinburgh) have been shelved indefinitely. Aloft is just 1 mile from De Anza’s bookstore as compared with 1.2 miles from the Terrace Apartments. The Aloft Hotel is relatively new; it was built in 2013 and is forty years younger than the Terrace Apartments. A few rooms could be converted to communal kitchens as are found in dormitories, the restaurant downstairs could be leased to a local operator, and meeting areas could be converted to study halls. Converting hotels for dormitory use is not a 4 new idea – San Jose State University converted a portion of the Signia Hilton (formerly Fairmont) into housing.

In previous Board Meetings, concerns were raised about the cost of providing security for on- campus housing. Does that mean that the College District intends to pass the expense to the residents of Cupertino? This is another impact that we did not anticipate when voting for the bond. By comparison, San Jose State University provides additional security to its off-campus housing at Spartan Village on the Paseo. The Terrace apartments are laid out in multiple buildings which is not optimal for providing security for its residents. And what about the impacts to neighboring single-family homes? We all know that the exuberance of youth invites more noise. A new building on campus or the hotel site are better suited to provide for security.

College District staff should have anticipated these issues prior to initiating an offer to purchase the Terrace Apartments. On March 10, staff proposed making trips to California community colleges that offer student housing. Why didn’t staff learn about how student housing long ago? And why is staff considering a junket to community colleges that are far away and in lower- density lower-cost areas when we have San Jose State in our own back yard? Cupertino individual median income is about $118K; eight California community college cities have individual median incomes of $28K to $36K; and the six other California community college cities have individual median incomes of $48K to $54K. There is no comparison.

Why wasn’t there any outreach to the major stakeholders – City of Cupertino, K-12 school districts, apartment residents and their single-family home neighbors? While the consultant is talking about the minutiae of filling in the apartment’s swimming pool, the major issues are not being addressed – security, ratio of resident assistants to residents, cost-of-rent, impact on community. Why is the College District ignoring its own surveys and not building student housing on campus when the funds have been available since 2020? Within a few minutes of due-diligence the College District’s consultant would have known that initiating the purchase of the Terrace apartments was a bad idea. Please don’t throw good money after bad and stop the purchase process now.

Sincerely, Rhoda Fry, 40+ year Cupertino resident

To the city clerk and City Council
Please include the following email as part of Written communications for the City Council meeting of April 15th 2025.

To the Mayor, Vice Mayor and council members,
I request that the City Council consider adopting the following procedural changes regarding the handling of written communications and commission meetings.

Written Communications:

Either in 2022/2023, the majority on the then Council—comprising JR Fruen, Sheila Mohan, and Hung Wei—implemented a change requiring residents to explicitly request that their written communications be included in the public record. While this may have been done with procedural intent, it has unfortunately had the effect of limiting public voices and reducing transparency.

In a healthy democracy, open communication between residents and their elected representatives is essential. Written comments from the public are a vital part of civic engagement and should be treated with the same respect as in-person testimony. Requiring residents to add a specific statement to ensure their voices are included in the public record creates an unnecessary barrier to participation.

I urge the Council to reverse this policy and restore the default practice of including all written communications in the public record—unless the sender explicitly requests otherwise. Doing so would demonstrate the City’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and inclusive public dialogue.

Commission meetings:

In 2022, citing logistical or operational reasons, all commission meetings—except for the Planning Commission—were moved to the Quinlan Community Center, removed from the hybrid format, and, at times, not even recorded. While meetings are now recorded, public participation requires in-person attendance, and some of the rooms used at Quinlan are often too small to accommodate residents effectively.

These changes have significantly reduced transparency and public engagement. During this period, the conduct of a former commissioner raised serious concerns about a lack of accountability—concerns that were brought to the attention of the City Manager but, unfortunately, not meaningfully addressed. This lack of oversight was particularly troubling given the absence of recording or broadcasting during that time.

While I am willing to provide further details about this matter separately, my primary request is that commission meetings be relocated back to Cupertino Community Hall and returned to a hybrid format. Doing so would provide adequate space, restore accessibility, and help ensure transparency, respectful conduct, and public trust in our civic processes.

Thank you for your attention and for supporting open, inclusive governance. regards

To the City clerk and to council member Fruen,
Please include my email in written communications for the next City Council meeting! Not sure if you can include Your reply to me Council member Fruen for context! Council member Fruen,
Thank you for getting back to me so quickly and for explaining the City Council’s position on how written communications are handled under Section 2.08.100 of the Municipal Code.

With all the budget challenges Cupertino faced in 2022, it’s surprising that time was spent enforcing an obscure section of the Municipal Code that, although on the books since 1995, had never been enforced.

For decades, the lack of enforcement never caused any issues for the Council or the community.

I hope you can understand why—even if the Council didn’t formally change anything in 2022 or 2023— the way this rule is currently being applied has raised concerns among many in the community. While asking residents to include a sentence requesting their comments be added to the public record might seem like a small detail, it’s not something everyone is aware of. As a result, important input may be unintentionally excluded. Whether this change is due to a new interpretation or simply a shift in enforcement, it has made the process feel less open and accessible to the public.

Based on how the ordinance is written, it actually seems like relevant public comments should be included in the meeting materials automatically. So it would make more sense—and feel more transparent—to include them by default, unless the writer specifically states otherwise.

I request that the Council reconsider its approach and begin automatically including all relevant public comments in the record, without requiring residents to make a special request. regards
Sashi

Sashi,

Rather, the City Attorney’s office reviewed and began enforcing Section 2.08.100 of the Municipal Code, which is reproduced here below for your convenience. It has been part of the Municipal Code in its present form since 1995.

To the city clerk and City Council
Please include the following email as part of Written communications for the City Council meeting of April 15th 2025.

To the Mayor, Vice Mayor and council members,
I request that the City Council consider adopting the following procedural changes regarding the handling of written communications and commission meetings.

Written Communications:

Either in 2022/2023, the majority on the then Council—comprising JR Fruen, Sheila Mohan, and Hung Wei— implemented a change requiring residents to explicitly request that their written communications be included in the public record. While this may have been done with procedural intent, it has unfortunately had the effect of limiting public voices and reducing transparency.

In a healthy democracy, open communication between residents and their elected representatives is essential.

Written comments from the public are a vital part of civic engagement and should be treated with the same respect as in-person testimony. Requiring residents to add a specific statement to ensure their voices are included in the public record creates an unnecessary barrier to participation.

I urge the Council to reverse this policy and restore the default practice of including all written communications in the public record—unless the sender explicitly requests otherwise. Doing so would demonstrate the City’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and inclusive public dialogue.

Commission meetings:

In 2022, citing logistical or operational reasons, all commission meetings—except for the Planning Commission— were moved to the Quinlan Community Center, removed from the hybrid format, and, at times, not even recorded.

While meetings are now recorded, public participation requires in-person attendance, and some of the rooms used at Quinlan are often too small to accommodate residents effectively.

These changes have significantly reduced transparency and public engagement. During this period, the conduct of a former commissioner raised serious concerns about a lack of accountability—concerns that were brought to the attention of the City Manager but, unfortunately, not meaningfully addressed. This lack of oversight was particularly troubling given the absence of recording or broadcasting during that time.

While I am willing to provide further details about this matter separately, my primary request is that commission meetings be relocated back to Cupertino Community Hall and returned to a hybrid format. Doing so would provide adequate space, restore accessibility, and help ensure transparency, respectful conduct, and public trust in our civic processes.

Thank you for your attention and for supporting open, inclusive governance.

regards
Sashi

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Dear City Clerk,
Can you please include the below in written comments for the 04/15/25 city council meeting. [Writing on behalf of myself only, as a Cupertino resident.] Subject: Urgent Request to Reverse De Anza Boulevard Lane Reductions Dear Mayor Liang Chao and Honorable Members of the Cupertino City Council, I write today to urge this Council to take bold and corrective action on the De Anza Boulevard lane reductions—a decision that has significantly impacted traffic flow and community safety, despite widespread public opposition and concerns raised during the prior council majority tenure.

I draw your attention to a recent article in SFGATE (linked below), which details how the City of San Mateo recently made the courageous choice to reverse a costly and disruptive bike lane project that had eliminated 200 parking spots. Despite the expense and need to return grant funding, their council prioritized the needs of residents and restored over 100 parking spaces. https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/bay-area-city-nearly-2-million-bike-lane-removal- 20149966.php
Cupertino now has a similar opportunity. Last fall, residents repeatedly voiced strong opposition to the removal of vehicle lanes on De Anza Boulevard. Yet, the prior council and staff moved forward regardless. At the time, transportation staff assured residents that traffic would not be impacted—claims which have not aged well.

Residents now face daily gridlock, especially during peak hours. East-west and left-turn traffic is particularly burdened, with right-turn lanes such as the one on McClellan Road backing up all the way to Stelling Road. Additionally, it appears that signal timing for left-turns has been shortened, causing more drivers to rush through red lights—raising both safety and enforcement concerns. This change seems to prioritize north-south traffic flow at the expense of all others.

At a prior community meeting, I asked what modeling or testing had been done to assess the impact on east-west traffic. The answer was: none. I urge the Council to investigate what specific signal timing changes have been implemented on De Anza and direct staff to restore timings that allow left-turn lanes to fully clear before the lights turn red.

Moreover, the new bike lanes on De Anza Blvd remain underutilized. Despite driving in the area frequently, I rarely observe any cyclists using these lanes. This raises critical questions about how staff is evaluating the effectiveness of such projects:

Are bike lane sensors installed to count usage by day and time? If not, why not?
How is the city measuring the return on investment (ROI) of these major capital projects?
Until there are clear, data-driven metrics and a transparent ROI analysis subject to public review, I respectfully request that the Council immediately pause all new bike lane spending and approvals. I also recommend that a study session be scheduled where staff must present quantifiable usage data and cost-benefit analysis to the council for comment and scrutiny.

Given that the city has already spent over $500,000 on the De Anza lane reduction, that expenditure should now be offset by pausing or canceling all current and future bike lane projects and intersection changes.

Finally, this raises a broader question of accountability. How will Council ensure that staff and leadership are held accountable for the clear and costly failure of the De Anza Boulevard lane reduction? Residents deserve not only a reversal of the physical changes, but also a firm commitment to more transparent, data-driven, accountable and responsive governance moving forward.

Now is the time to act decisively. Please restore the fourth vehicle lanes on De Anza Boulevard and set a new standard for listening to residents, using metrics, and demanding accountability.

Respectfully,

> Dear Mayor Chao, Vice-Mayor Moore, and Members of the Cupertino City Council:
>
> I am writing to respectfully urge the Cupertino City Council to adopt an urgency ordinance or interim moratorium at the next City Council meeting that prohibits the conversion of existing multifamily rental housing in Cupertino to student housing or other non-residential uses. The intent of this request is to safeguard the city’s current rental housing stock during a time of increasing pressure and changing land use demands. >
> As Cupertino faces growing demand for both affordable housing and student accommodations, it is critical that the city prioritize policies that protect its existing rental units—many of which are home to young families with school-aged children, seniors, and others in need of stable, affordable housing. Allowing multifamily rental properties to be converted into student housing or other uses risks displacing current residents and exacerbating our housing affordability crisis.
>
>
> Several California cities, including San Francisco, Berkeley, and Santa Clara, have implemented measures to protect their rental housing stock from similar conversions. San Francisco’s Municipal Code Section 317 is one such example, requiring specific zoning and permit processes before rental units can be converted. These types of policies have helped cities maintain neighborhood stability while still allowing thoughtful expansion of housing options. >
> Cupertino’s rental housing is essential for maintaining the diversity, equity, and vibrancy of our community.

Given the rapid shifts in housing demand and the pressing need to preserve affordability, Cupertino must take a proactive stance to prevent the loss of its existing multifamily rental housing stock. >
> I therefore urge the City Council to act swiftly by passing an urgency ordinance or interim moratorium that will prevent conversions of rental housing to student housing or other non-residential uses until a permanent municipal code amendment can be studied and adopted. This action will allow the City time to fully evaluate the issue and consider appropriate long-term regulations.
>
> This matter is time-sensitive. Existing properties such as McClellan Terrace are at immediate risk of conversion.

We must act now to ensure that Cupertino does not lose essential rental housing that supports families, workers, and long-time community members.
>
> Most urgently, I appeal to you on behalf of the 67 families with children enrolled in CUSD and FUHSD schools who currently live at McClellan Terrace. These are families who have built their lives in our community—who contribute to our schools, our neighborhoods, and our local economy. Their potential displacement would not only harm their wellbeing but would also undermine the very fabric of Cupertino. Please act to protect them. >
> Thank you for your attention to this critical issue. I look forward to seeing this item placed on the next City Council agenda for urgent consideration and action.
>
> Sincerely,
> Devendar

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, Councilmembers and Staff, Please PULL CONSENT ITEM 1O Accounts Payables.

In Attachment B, Page 24 of 36 there is a $12.1M payment to BAZ Industries which we all know is Apple’s sales tax kick back program. $12.1M is a lot of money to squirrel away without any visibility.

Q1: How was this accounted for in the budgets for the years it was being accumulated/covering? Q2: Where does it show up in the budget as being allocated but not spent yet? Was it placed in a fund? Q3: The payment shows it came from the General Fund. There is a lot of money in the General Fund. What is the current breakdown of the General Fund? Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin

Dear City Council,

The A/P report contains payments to BAZ that pertain to Q1 Calendar Year 2023.

Can the City Council please ask for a financial report exactly as to what has happened with the money?
When we are looking at paying out $12.1M, that’s a huge portion of our budget.

How has this money been carried over as a liability over the years?

Separately, can we please have a final report on the CDTFA tax money? At first some was set aside. And then some more. Did it or did it not include the liability to BAZ?
Then we found out that we would be able to keep the money – but where was that liability being recorded?
Now we see that the money is being paid out of the general fund, can we see a trail as to how the money got into the general fund?

Thanks,
Rhoda Fry

FY 2025-25 Community
Development Block Grant,

BMR, AHF, HSG, PLHA
Written Communications

Subject: 4/15 City Council Meeting Written Comments -- Agenda Item 12 (Consent) Date: Monday, April 14, 2025 3:17:34 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Dear City Council & Staff,
Below is my written comment for consent agenda item 12 -- Fiscal Year (FY) 2025-26 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program, Below Market Rate Affordable Housing Fund (BMR AHF), General Fund Human Services Grant (HSG), Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA), and County funding allocations.

As context, the current recommendation is to authorize the City Manager to execute the FY 2025-26 CDBG, BMR AHF, General Fund HSG, PLHA, and County funding agreements, whose amounts were originally proposed by staff and then modified by the Housing Commission.

Questions:

1. Should almost 40% of our BMR AHF Capital Housing Project Funds go to one project?

2. If we award $3M, leaving only $1.8M in the BMR AHF fund, with $350K committed to administration/services, is $1.45M enough for future affordable housing projects? How much is forecasted to enter the fund in the next 2 years?

3. How can we be more consistent around the way we are awarding funding per unit? The Mary Ave project (40 units) is currently recommended to receive 16x more per unit than the Wolfe Road Housing project (249 units).

Originally, staff's BMR AHF Capital Housing Fund allocation recommendation to the Housing Commission was $2M to Wolfe Road or $8,032 / unit and $1M to Mary Ave or $25,000 / unit. Then, the Housing Commission flipped the funding allocations to $1,083,200.00 to the Wolfe Road Project ($4,350 / unit) versus $1,916,800.00 to the Mary Ave Housing project ($47,920 / unit). Regardless of whose recommendation one takes, this is a pretty wide discrepancy in funding per unit.

This discrepancy in funding per unit widens further when we take into account the awarding of 2021-25 PLHA Affordable Rental Housing Funds (Four-Year Funding Cycle). This funding was originally recommended by staff to be split: $300K to Wolfe Road and $608,683 to Mary Ave. After going past the Housing Commission, the recommendation shifted towards giving all $908,683 to Mary Ave, increasing Mary Ave's funding to $70,637 per unit.

With the high cost of construction, public sector funding and support is critical to making low- income housing a reality. However, we must have a sustainable framework for awarding this funding. Whenever we award funding, we are setting precedents for future applications.

Cupertino must distribute funds in a way that is justifiable and repeatable in the future. I may be wrong, but I imagine it is not sustainable to award $70K per unit grants to all applicants. As such, are we being fair and equitable in this current approach to awarding funding? Many thanks,
Tracy

Cupertino City Council
10300 Torre Avenue
Cupertino, CA 95014

Dear Mayor Chao, and all Cupertino City Council Members,

I’m writing to express my strong support for the Mary Avenue Villas project and to urge the City Council to approve the funding allocations recommended by the Housing Commission. This project will bring over 40 affordable homes to Cupertino, including 19 units specifically for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). It’s a crucial step in addressing the need for affordable and supportive housing in our community.

In Fremont Union High School District, we have long standing programs to support youth with disabilities learn and live within their community. A strong and important component of our transition-related services is to create Community Based Instruction opportunities to help support access to daily living and vocational opportunities.

When students leave our district programs at age 22, they are often accessing adult programs throughout Santa Clara County. Having the Mary Avenue Villas located within their immediate learning environment could promote a new level of success and independence for a group of people who are so often marginalized.

There are many different kinds of votes you are asked to cast as part of being a city council member. Using your voting power to increase access to affordable housing for people with disabilities has to be one of the most positive results of your work. People with disabilities have the legal right to live in community-based settings, not institutions, under the Lanterman Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Without affordable housing like Mary Avenue Villas, many individuals with IDD cannot fully enjoy these rights.

I urge the City Council to approve the necessary resources and make this project a reality. Mary Avenue Villas is a unique and important opportunity to offer affordable, inclusive housing for people with IDD, ensuring they remain part of the community. Having this option will greatly improve the lives of many.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Nancy Sullivan, M.A.

This project will bring over 40 affordable homes to Cupertino, including 19 units specifically for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

It’s a crucial step in addressing the need for affordable and supportive housing in our community.

Mary Avenue Villas will provide permanent housing and services that help adults with IDD live independently, with dignity, and stay connected to their community. In Cupertino, 70% of adults with developmental disabilities still live with aging parents. As these parents get older, their children face an uncertain future. This project will give them a safe and stable place to live.

INSERT YOUR PERSONAL HOUSING NEEDS
People with disabilities have the legal right to live in community-based settings, not institutions, under the Lanterman Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Without affordable housing like Mary Avenue Villas, many individuals with IDD cannot fully enjoy these rights.

There are 325 individuals with developmental disabilities in Cupertino, including 122 adults. Sadly, only a few live independently. Mary Avenue Villas is a chance to begin addressing this gap and provide long-term housing solutions for those who need it most.

The project is shovel ready; it just needs the City’s approval for funding.

I urge the City Council to approve the necessary resources and make this project a reality. Mary Avenue Villas is a unique and important opportunity to offer affordable, inclusive housing for people with IDD, ensuring they remain part of the community.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Dear City Council,

I remain concerned that our BMR funds are not being used as wisely as they could be used.

Please look at the last attachment that I put together using Cupertino City Data – it shows that the overhead of managing BMR programs is nearly the cost of delivering the programs!!! And keep in mind that the cost of delivering the programs also have their own overheads!!! If the BMR fund was a charity, it would get a very bad grade! I have also attached a report that shows how BMR funds are used by the City of Palo Alto where the overhead cost of managing their program appears to be far lower than ours.

We need to do better in managing our BMR fund.

As you may know, when I looked at the AP reports, I noticed a misallocation of BMR funds and reported it to City Attorney Chris Jensen.

When I found the City Attorney to be non-responsive on this issue, I sent information to the San Jose Spotlight.
https://sanjosespotlight.com/cupertino-spent-affordable-housing-funds-on-lawsuit/ Separately, Attorney Jensen refused to provide how much of our public money was used to litigate the YIMBY lawsuit, but it is obvious that it went well over the original $50K agreement. Strangely, there is no available public record that the agreement was extended.

The public still does not know how much money was restituted to the BMR fund.

Below is some information I sent to the audit committee a very long time ago.

Subject: Public Comment Audit Committee 3/20/2024 #1

Dear Audit Committee,

This is one of several emails for public comment.

I would like to let you know that I spoke with the City Attorney on February 22, 2024 to let him know that funds from the restricted BMR Housing and Affordable Housing Fund (under AB 1600) had been mis-allocated to pay for stipulated judgement fees for a lawsuit file by YIMBY and others. Upon further review of the Accounts Payable and two PRAs from Goldfarb and Lipman, I found that around $165K had been improperly removed from the BMR fund to pay for litigation of the YIMBY lawsuit and Housing Element. It is difficult to determine how much money was improperly removed because the City works with the firm on multiple projects that are not split out in the Accounts Payable reports and the descriptions are not helpful.

The first attachment is a summary that I put together and it only covers judgement fees and Goldfarb and Lipman billings. The second and third attachments are examples of the payment register containing mis-allocated BMR transactions (search for BMR). Perusing through other Accounts Payable reports, it appears that other transactions might have been mis-allocated as well (such as Verizon bills). I am relieved to know that Mr. Orozco is competently engaged in ferreting out these issues that I had reported to City Council on February 27, 2024. I hope that other restricted accounts can be double-checked and that the BMR fund is reimbursed with the interested that it would have accrued had it remained there. It is thanks to Councilmember Moore that I had discovered these inconsistencies because she had created the policy of including the paying account names on the A/P register shared with Council.

On a related matter, the City contracted with Goldfarb and Lipman to litigate the YIMBY lawsuit not to exceed $50K. It is likely that this amount was exceeded (although it is hard to tell because the billings are combined with other services, all of which were redacted in the PRA). Could you please find out whether the legal fees exceeded $50K and if so, determine whether an updated contract is needed?

I would appreciate a report back to the Audit Committee on these items the next time the committee meets.

Thank You,
Rhoda Fry (40-year Cupertino resident)

The City of Cupertino BMR Housing and Affordable Housing Fund was improperly used to pay for the costs of a lawsuit and other expenses
This document refers only to the stipulated judgements from the YIMBY lawsuit and billings from Goldfarb & Lipman during a specific window in time. The City should look through all transactions from the BMR Housing Fund (because there are others that appear to be questionable) The BMR Housing and Affordable Housing Fund was used to pay for $15K of Stipulated Judgements The information below was copied from Accounts Payable Reports Payment to California Housing Defense Fund
BMR 2024-01-19 733921 1/2/2024 9000.00 Stipulated Judgement 23CV410817 Payment to Yes In My Back Yard
BMR 2024-01-19 733946 1/2/2024 6000.00 Stipulated Judgement 23CV410817 The BMR Housing and Affordable Housing Fund was used to pay legal costs for YIMBY lawsuit and Housing Element (HE) Two PRAs were requested, one for Goldfarb & Lipman for the "YIMBY" lawsuit and the other for "HE" Housing Element Services All line items in the PRA were redacted so it is impossible to know which costs were from the lawsuit vs housing element vs other This points to another problem - by looking at the description in the Accounts Payable (A/P) report, it is impossible to determine how much money was used for the lawsuit, the housing element, or other projects (these are highlighted below) and the descriptions of the transactions are not very helpful in determining the services rendered The total paid for bills containing YIMBY was $157,222.82 With the exception of $6748.82, all of the payments were made from the BMR Housing Fund It appears that over $165K of money used for this lawsuit and the housing element was improperly taken from the BMR fund Selected Payments to Goldfarb & Lipman YIMBY

Dear Cupertino City Council Members,

I am writing on behalf of Parents Helping Parents to express my strong support for the Mary Avenue Villas project and to urge the City Council to approve the funding allocations recommended by the Housing Commission.

Parents Helping Parents has been helping families of children with special needs since 1976. Our mission is to help children and adults with special needs receive support and services they need to reach their full potential by providing information, training, and resources to build strong families and improve systems of care. We are the Parent Training and Information Center (PTI) for families whose children are experiencing disabilities in five counties: Santa Clara, San Mateo, Santa Cruz, San Benito, and Monterey. Our main office is in San Jose and we have satellite offices in East San Jose and Gilroy.

Mary Avenue Villas will bring over 40 affordable homes to Cupertino, including 19 units specifically for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). It’s a crucial step in addressing the need for affordable and supportive housing in our community.

This project will provide permanent housing and services that help adults with IDD live independently, with dignity, and stay connected to their community. In Cupertino, 70% of adults with developmental disabilities still live with aging parents. As these parents get older, their children face an uncertain future. This project will give them a safe and stable place to live.

People with disabilities have the legal right to live in community-based settings, not institutions, under the Lanterman Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Without affordable housing like Mary Avenue Villas, many individuals with IDD cannot fully enjoy these rights.

There are 325 individuals with developmental disabilities in Cupertino, including 122 adults.

Sadly, only a few live independently. Mary Avenue Villas is a chance to begin addressing this gap and provide long-term housing solutions for those who need it most.

I urge the City Council to approve the necessary resources and make this project a reality. Mary Avenue Villas is a unique and important opportunity to offer affordable, inclusive housing for people with IDD, ensuring they remain part of the community.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Subject: Item 12: Approve Funding for Mary Avenue Villas to Support those with IDD Date: Tuesday, April 15, 2025 3:15:00 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Dear Cupertino City Council Members,
I’m writing to express my strong support for the Mary Avenue Villas project and to respectfully urge you to approve the $3 million in funding recommended by the Housing Commission.

Mary Avenue Villas will bring over 40 affordable homes to Cupertino, including 19 units dedicated to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

These homes are not just buildings—they represent life-changing opportunities for people who have waited far too long for the chance to live independently and with dignity in the communities they love and call home.

In my work, I connect every day with people who have IDD. I hear their hopes and dreams, support them in their search for housing, and witness the deep discouragement when those doors remain closed. These are individuals with incredible potential—people who want to contribute, belong, and live with pride and purpose. But with most living on just over $1,000 a month through SSI, the reality is that they are priced out of nearly every housing option. Without deeply affordable housing, their path to independence remains out of reach.

Mary Avenue Villas is intentionally designed to serve these extremely low-income residents—and this kind of inclusive, accessible housing is exactly what our community needs. To make this level of affordability possible, sufficient funding is essential. The City’s $3 million investment is not only reasonable—it’s necessary to help bring this shovel-ready project to life.

Catching- Up
This isn’t setting an unsustainable, financial precedent—it’s correcting an overdue imbalance.

The idea that approving $3 million for Mary Avenue Villas sets an unsustainable, financial precedent overlooks a critical truth and the definition of a precedent:

Cupertino is not ahead of the curve— we are not venturing into new territory - We’re catching up. Cities across the Bay Area have long been investing deeply in housing solutions for their most vulnerable populations, including individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

Other jurisdictions have prioritized local funding to unlock state and federal dollars, build inclusive housing, and honor the principle that people with disabilities deserve to live independently in the communities they grew up in. Cupertino has fallen behind in that effort—not due to a lack of care, but a lack of action. This project is our opportunity to begin closing that gap.

If we’re going to talk about precedent, let’s be clear: the precedent we’re setting is one of moral clarity, fiscal responsibility (through leveraged dollars), and long-term community benefit.

Equality vs. Equity
The question of whether it is “fair” to allocate a larger share of funding to Mary Avenue Villas and showcasing funding/unit as a means against this is rooted in the idea that all projects should receive the same amount of funding per unit. But this approach reflects a framework of equality, not equity.

Equality assumes every project should receive the same resources, regardless of the population served or the level of affordability being provided. Equity, on the other hand, asks a more meaningful question: Where is the need greatest, and how can we allocate resources accordingly?
Mary Avenue Villas is designed specifically to meet the needs of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), many of whom live on just over $1,000 a month. Creating housing that is truly accessible and supportive for this population requires deeper subsidies—and the per-unit cost reflects that necessity.

By contrast, applying a standardized per-unit funding amount ignores the unique challenges of serving extremely low-income residents with higher support needs. That approach might treat all projects the same, but it fails to meet people where they are —and it fails to make building extremely low-income housing feasible.

Equity means responding to historical underinvestment and addressing the systemic barriers faced by the most vulnerable. Mary Avenue Villas does exactly that.

Conclusion
Please approve the $3 million in funding for Mary Avenue Villas and help turn this vital project into a reality. This is an investment in equity, community, and compassion that will benefit not just the individuals who will call Mary Avenue Villas home, but the entire Cupertino community.
“We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say ‘It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.” Thank you so much for your time and thoughtful consideration. I deeply appreciate your efforts and your commitment to building a more inclusive and compassionate community.

Warm Regards,
Gia Pham

Dear Cupertino City Council Members,

I am writing on behalf of Parents Helping Parents to express my strong support for the Mary Avenue Villas project and to urge the City Council to approve the funding allocations recommended by the Housing Commission.

Parents Helping Parents has been helping families of children with special needs since 1976. Our mission is to help children and adults with special needs receive support and services they need to reach their full potential by providing information, training, and resources to build strong families and improve systems of care. We are the Parent Training and Information Center (PTI) for families whose children are experiencing disabilities in five counties: Santa Clara, San Mateo, Santa Cruz, San Benito, and Monterey. Our main office is in San Jose and we have satellite offices in East San Jose and Gilroy.

Mary Avenue Villas will bring over 40 affordable homes to Cupertino, including 19 units specifically for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). It’s a crucial step in addressing the need for affordable and supportive housing in our community.

This project will provide permanent housing and services that help adults with IDD live independently, with dignity, and stay connected to their community. In Cupertino, 70% of adults with developmental disabilities still live with aging parents. As these parents get older, their children face an uncertain future. This project will give them a safe and stable place to live.

People with disabilities have the legal right to live in community-based settings, not institutions, under the Lanterman Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Without affordable housing like Mary Avenue Villas, many individuals with IDD cannot fully enjoy these rights.

There are 325 individuals with developmental disabilities in Cupertino, including 122 adults.

Sadly, only a few live independently. Mary Avenue Villas is a chance to begin addressing this gap and provide long-term housing solutions for those who need it most.

I urge the City Council to approve the necessary resources and make this project a reality. Mary Avenue Villas is a unique and important opportunity to offer affordable, inclusive housing for people with IDD, ensuring they remain part of the community.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

(Please include the following as public input for Item Number 13 on the City Council Agenda for 4/15/2025. Thank you.)
Dear City Council:

I am sending this email in response to Item 13 on the Cupertino City Council Agenda for 4/15/25 on the Stevens Creek Blvd. Corridor Vision Study. I am very concerned that Declaring a dedicated bus only lane on Stevens Creek Blvd. would allow Senator Wiener's New bill SB 79 to be enacted along Stevens Creek Blvd.

The text in this new proposed bill is so convoluted it says that any bus line on a road With a dedicated bus lane on any part of it becomes a Tier 1 or Tier 2 bus transit line and That any land 1/4 or 1/2 mile from the roadway can be upzoned to high density and The building height be increased dramatically. Bus line 23 and 523 would become A bus line that could allow SB 79 to be applied ministerially along any part of Stevens Creek Blvd. And probably San Carlos also.

In the August, 2024 Stevens Creek Advisory Committee meeting in Cupertino there were many People who showed up (like 50) demanding that one lane of Stevens Creek Blvd. be made a Dedicated bus only lane. I attended the Stevens Creek Blvd. Vision Study meetings and I had Never seen many of these people there before. And no one ever talked in depth about Having one lane of Stevens Creek Blvd. be made just for buses. We never talked about that.

I know. I was there. That is why I was so surprised to see all these people, many from other Cities, like South San Francisco and Campbell, just saying one thing, I want bus rapid transit on Stevens Creek Blvd, one lane needs to be closed for this. I thought it was very strange that These people who didn't even live near Stevens Creek Blvd. were demanding one lane of Stevens Creek Blvd. be shut down for only buses.

These people hadn't even bothered to come to any of the Stevens Creek Blvd. Corridor meetings And now they show up at one meeting demanding one lane of Stevens Creek Blvd. be shut down? The rest of us wasted our time going to all these meetings and this group of people Who didn't even go to the meetings show up and start demanding things? Why should they be Catered to? Why are they more important than the rest of us who went to the meetings? Closing a lane on Stevens Creek Blvd. is a totally ridiculous idea. We studied it and have seen how Ludicrous it is. The total traffic demand on the road is already high. Dedicating one lane on Stevens Creek Blvd. to just buses would lead to total traffic chaos. Most people drive cars in The area and use this roadway for everyday and commute travel. The VTA buses of 23 and 523 Travel along in the slow and middle lane of Stevens Creek Blvd. and do a fine job of it now.

I am very pleased with how traffic flows on Stevens Creek Blvd. Bus 23 and 24 were fast Enough for me as a student to attend San Jose State. They did not even have the faster 523 bus Then. It might have helped me as a student etc., but I spent the whole day on the San Jose State campus anyway.

Please do not recommend that Stevens Creek Blvd. have one lane dedicated to bus only traffic.

This is playing into the hands of the authors of SB 79 to take over the control of millions Of acres of land adjacent to transit lines in California to be upzoned and upheighted without Any input from the public. This attempt by SB 79 has been described as the biggest "taking" Of land in California. That is why SB 79 is considered to be as dangerous as SB 50.

Thank you.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Dear Council & City Clerk,
Please include the below in written communications for the 04/15/25 city council meeting for Agenda Item 13, which asks Council to vote on whether the SCB corridor vision study should go to the Bicycle Pedestrian versus Planning Commission.

Writing on behalf of myself -- Rather than placing a single project on the agenda for Council to assign, why not have an agenda item that allows Council to discuss and adopt a comprehensive framework for how all future transit-related projects should be routed to commissions? Without this, will Council need to vote on commission assignments for every individual transit project moving forward?
Last year, several City Councilmembers already asked to agendize the addition of transit to the Planning Commission scope, which technically would solve the question raised above. To more efficiently use Council time, I would ask that transit-related projects requiring commission input automatically go past the Planning Commission, rather than requiring Council time to deliberate and vote. Our Council and staff both have many important priorities to handle, and having a clear framework for routing projects to commissions would remove one administrative burden from the load.

The norm for many neighboring cities is to involve the Planning Commission in transportation decisions. In fact, both Los Altos and Palo Alto have a joint Planning & Transit Commission.

Our city’s General Plan (Mobility Element) states that transportation is part of our planning policy. That means the Planning Commission should have the opportunity to hear and discuss these matters in a public meeting before decisions are finalized.

I respectfully ask the City Council to:
- Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall under the Planning Commission’s responsibilities
- Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public hearings
- Ensure no changes to streets, parking, or traffic proceed without review at a public Planning Commission or City Council hearing

Tracy

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, and Councilmembers
As a long time Cupertino resident, I’d like to share a brief suggestion regarding our city’s approach to transportation planning.

Projects that affect road design, signal timing, or parking often have wide-reaching impacts on mobility and quality of life. I believe that bringing these items to public hearings—particularly through the Planning Commission—can help strengthen transparency and community trust.

Several neighboring cities, including Sunnyvale, Los Altos, and Mountain View, already involve their Planning Commissions in similar decisions. Cupertino’s General Plan also recognizes that transportation and mobility are part of the city’s planning framework.

I request the Council to consider directing staff to bring current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public review. This would help ensure thoughtful planning and give residents an opportunity to provide input in a constructive setting.

Hello City Council Members!
Hope you are having a great week.

It has been brought to my attention that there is discussion regarding the elimination of the BPC. Why is this even a consideration? Is this a budget issue? Have they accomplished nothing? Is Bike and Pedestrian safety no longer a concern?
It is disturbing in this climate where people believe they can just eliminate commission without thoughtful consideration. Cupertino has come a long way in creating a safe alternative travel environment (other than cars) for our community. Now we are going to punish the commission for doing a good job? Please make thoughtful decisions as we will be watching carefully around your decision making process. It’s important that safety always be the forefront and that having the BPC helps to keep people focused on this goal.

Thank you for your consideration.

Mayor and City Council Members,
I am requesting, and feel strongly that it is the responsible thing to do, that you direct staff to present the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor Vision Study to the Planning Commission to review and provide input. In addition, please have PC recommendations make their way to City Council for review.

Your public must have opportunity to easily participate in large decisions like this. This is not appropriate to be solely a Bike Ped Comm. agenda item . Ideas that have been floated over the years for SC Blvd have many, many impacts on many things public and private.

Surely there is an opportunity for Bike Ped commissioners to give input either in a joint PC/BPC study session, or Commissioners representing themselves in public PC meeting that is far easier for the public to participate in, and has meetings recorded for viewing.

In addition, please use this opportunity to confirm that transportation and mobility are best suited for the Planning Commission responsibilities.

Set things up so that no changes to streets, parking, or traffic proceed without review at a public Planning Commission or City Council meeting under the Public Hearing portion of the agenda.

I've been made aware that a topic for tonight's city council meeting will be asking the Planning Commission to weigh in on transportation matters over the Bike Ped Commission.

Dear City Council,
I have learned that the council is planning to discuss whether to ask the Planning Commission to review and provide input on the Stevens Creek Corridor Vision Study. I find this notion quite inappropriate. This Study is clearly a transportation issue and should be studied by the Bike and Pedestrian Commission.

Commissions exist so that people knowledgeable in the specific area can help the city manage that area through thoughtful consideration and data gathering. Over the years, our Bike and Pedestrian commission has initiated very significant improvements to our transportation infrastructure which have immeasurably enhanced safety, convenience and quality of life in our city. This takes time and expertise that belongs to the Bike and Pedestrian commission, not to the Planning Commission which manages land use and is not focused specifically on transportation. The Bike and Pedestrian commission should be the commission to review the Stevens Creek Corridor Vision Study in order to deliver the best result for our city and community.

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, and Councilmembers,
We are Cupertino residents who care about how our city handles transportation. It is important that all major transportation decisions go through a public hearing— either at the Planning Commission, at the City Council, or both. This should include road design changes, traffic signal timing, intersection redesigns, parking removals, and lane reductions.

Many nearby cities already involve their Planning Commissions in transportation decisions.

Our neighboring cities understand that transportation planning affects everyone and deserves input from the public through open meetings.

Our city’s General Plan (Mobility Element) already states that transportation is part of our planning policy. That means the Planning Commission should have the opportunity to hear and discuss these matters in a public meeting before decisions are finalized.

I respectfully request the City Council to:

Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall under the Planning Commission’s responsibilities
Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public hearings

PLEASE INCLUDE THIS EMAIL AS PART OF WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS FOR THE ABOVE MEETING AGENDA ITEM.

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore and Councilmembers,

This Stevens Creek Blvd (SCB) Corridor Vision Study is a massive undertaking that, if implemented in Cupertino, will have drastic impacts on our roads, traffic, businesses along SCB in addition to bike and pedestrian changes. Also, Cupertino would lose control over decisions that impact our residents and requires significant financial and possibly staff resources. This MUST have significant review and public hearings!

As other people have pointed out, many of our neighboring cities currently send transportation decisions to their Planning Commissions. This includes Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Santa Clara, Mountain View and San Jose.

REQUESTS: Please

1. Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall under the responsibilities of the Planning Commission.

2. Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission then to City Council. This should include road design changes, traffic signal timing, intersection redesigns, parking removals and lane reductions. This will allow current and future road changes to have a public hearing and adequate visibility to all involved.

3. Direct staff to present the Stevens Creek Blvd Corridor Vision Study to the Planning Commission for review and recommendations then send it to City Council.

4. When this SCB Corridor Vision Study goes to the Planning Commission please include more documents. Attachment A references these missing docs:
a. Appendix B – Preliminary analysis on alternatives (elevated, underground, I-280) b. If there is an Appendix B, there must be an Appendix A. c. Design and Transportation Manual (CDT) (can be a link?) d. VTA’s Speed and Reliability Program (link?)
e. City Council Staff report dated July 16, 2019 (on corridor website for Cupertino docs)
f. City Council Resolution No 18-089
g. Details for Cupertino for intersections/plans (study mentions specific items)

Transportation impacts more than just the users (vehicles, bikes, peds). It impacts businesses, quality of life, the experience of coming to Cupertino or avoiding it all together.

Please make sure these decisions are made at public hearings where public participation is maximized.

Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin

P.S. Note that the Bike/Ped Commission is held in a very small conference room in Quinlan with NO REMOTE public participation allowed, no overhead available.

To the Council and City Clerk,
Please include the following email as part of the written communications for Agenda Item 13 of the City Council meeting on April 15, 2025.

To the mayor, Vice Mayor and council members,
Most Cupertino residents work outside the city, and for various reasons—whether due to age, health, or distance—they choose to commute by car. Driving remains a practical and necessary mode of transportation for many, and this trend is not unique to Cupertino. While encouraging biking and walking is beneficial for both environmental and safety reasons, these goals must be balanced with the needs and lifestyles of Cupertino’s residents.

Advocacy groups certainly play an important role in raising awareness, but they should not have the authority to dictate how our community lives and commutes. Their influence should not be so overwhelming that it shapes transportation policy to the point of disregarding the broader needs of the population.

As of 2023, 35% of all registered vehicles in Santa Clara County were electric, and 43% of new car purchases that year were zero-emission vehicles. In Cupertino, this trend is clearly visible, with many cars on our streets being electric. Therefore, claiming that the primary need for more bike routes is environmental is not entirely accurate, especially when many residents are already driving electric vehicles.

When you look at the bike lanes during the day, they are often underused. Even during school commute hours, the bike lanes are far from full. This is reflected in the data that shows fewer than 20% of high school students commute by bike. There are several reasons for this—many students are new drivers excited to drive, others have busy schedules, or live too far to make biking practical. Given the relatively small percentage of students using bikes for commuting, mandating that a major thoroughfare like Stevens Creek Boulevard be made “bike-friendly” without thorough analysis and broader public input is not driven by safety concerns, as advocacy groups might suggest, but rather by a desire to assert influence. It is important to remember that Stevens Creek Boulevard is a major arterial road, and any changes to it should be carefully considered, with input from all segments of the community.

Cities like Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Santa Clara, Mountain View, and San José involve their Planning Commissions in transportation matters to ensure broader oversight and public engagement. These cities recognize the importance of public input in transportation decisions and ensure that proposals are reviewed by the appropriate commissions and bodies before decisions are made.

Given the significant impact that transportation planning has on all Cupertino residents, I strongly urge the Council to direct staff to bring the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor Vision Study before the Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission, the Planning Commission and City Council for a thorough public review. Stevens Creek Boulevard is a major thoroughfare that serves a diverse range of residents, and any proposed changes should be carefully considered and subject to input from all sectors of the community—not driven solely by advocacy groups.

In addition to reviewing the Stevens Creek Boulevard Vision study, I encourage the Council to simulataneously consider a review of changes made to De Anza Boulevard, another crucial arterial road. It is essential that all major transportation decisions undergo careful scrutiny to ensure they serve the needs of all residents and not just one group or perspective.

Furthermore, while there are grants available for transportation improvements, I propose that the Council explore using some of these funds to acquire environmentally friendly school buses for elementary and middle school students. This would reduce car traffic, improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists, and foster a sense of community among students traveling together.

Finally, I urge the Council to make it a mandate that all current and future transportation projects—whether related to bike lanes, traffic signals, or parking—be brought before the Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission, Planning Commission, and City Council for detailed analysis and public input.

Thank you for considering these important factors and for ensuring that all voices in Cupertino are heard as we shape the future of our transportation system.

Dear Mayor Liang Chao, Vice Mayor Kitty Moore, Councilmember J.R. Fruen, Councilmember Sheila Mohan, and Councilmember Ray Wang, I am writing as a resident of Cupertino to express my concern regarding the city’s transportation practices. I believe that all significant transportation decisions should be subject to public hearings, either at the Planning Commission, the City Council, or both.

This should encompass road design modifications, traffic signal adjustments, intersection redesigns, parking removals, and lane reductions.

Numerous neighboring cities have already incorporated their Planning Commissions into transportation decision-making processes. For instance, Sunnyvale’s Planning Commission was involved in the development of the Citywide Transportation System Plan on October 15, 2024, and the Caltrain Station Area Plan on September 10, 2024.

Los Altos - Planning and Transportation Commission
Community Traffic Safety and Parking - March 5, 2024
Pedestrian and Bicycle Improvements - January 22, 2024
Santa Clara - Planning Commission
Traffic Calming Measures - October 2, 2024
Transportation Access for Mixed-Use Projects - November 6, 2024 Mountain View - Planning Commission
El Camino Real Mobility Plan - January 10, 2025
Hwy 101 Interchange Improvements - December 15, 2024
San Jose - Planning Commission
Safety Improvements at Race St and Parkmoor Ave - February 12, 2025 New Bike Lanes Project - March 18, 2025
These cities recognize that transportation planning impacts all citizens and requires public input through open meetings.

Our city’s General Plan (Mobility Element) explicitly states that transportation is an integral component of our planning policy. Consequently, the Planning Commission should have the opportunity to engage in discussions and provide feedback on these matters during public meetings prior to final decisions.

I respectfully request that the City Council:

Reiterate that transportation and mobility are within the Planning Commission’s jurisdiction.

Mandate staff to present all ongoing and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public hearings.

Ensure that any alterations to streets, parking, or traffic arrangements undergo review at a public Planning Commission or City Council hearing.

Thank you for ensuring that Cupertino residents have a voice in the evolution of our city’s transportation systems.

Sincerely,
Ravi Kiran Singh, Cupertino Resident

Hello Cupertino City Council,
Please utilize the Bicycle Pedestrian Commission for presentation, review and input for the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor Vision Study.

The planning commission is to be used for land use matters only and should not be used for this action. The planning commission does not deal with transportation topics and is inappropriate for dealing with this topic.

The Bicycle Pedestrian Commission is the appropriate commission to review and provide input on traffic matters.

Please preserve the Bicycle Pedestrian Commission as it has a vital function for transportation topics.

(Please include the following as public comment on Item Number 13 for the Stevens Creek Blvd Corridor Transit Vision Study at the 4/15/25 City Council Meeting.) Dear City Council:

I think the Planning Commission should review the results of the Stevens Creek Corridor Transit Vision Study. The Planning Commission is the natural venue to provide the Discussion of the results of this study because they are resident-focused and represent A chance for everyone to have their views and comments known.

I attended the study sessions for the Stevens Creek Blvd meetings and I think everyone's Views need to be heard. The Bike and Ped Commission is not called the Bike and Ped And Car Committee. They do not advocate for or represent people who drive cars. They Are not the correct group to review this important study. There were many incidents in The course of the study were I feel the Bike advocates unfairly tried to dominate the Discussions in the study and the meetings. This was especially evident at the highly Irregular and out of control August, 2024 Stevens Creek Advisory Committee meeting in Cupertino where fifty bike advocates showed up and demanded that one lane be closed On Stevens Creek Blvd so that there would bus only or bus rapid transit on the road.

No one had talked about closing one lane on Stevens Creek Blvd. Very much or At all at the study meetings and these people showed up And tried to dominate and dictate what happened at the August, 2024 meeting. Many of these People were from out of town and never had been at any of the Corridor Study meetings. One person was from Campbell and demanded the lane be removed for cars and onlyHave buses. Why was someone from Campbell demanding this thing when they did notEven live in Cupertino, Santa Clara or San Jose? What were people from South San Francisco down in Cupertino demanding things on Stevens Creek Blvd? None of them had Even bothered to spend their time going to the study meetings? Why did they care about Stevens Creek Blvd? Who were they representing?
I don't think think the Bike and Ped Commission should be reviewing the Stevens Creek Blvd. Corridor Transit Vision Study. They don't represent people who drive cars And I think they have shown themselves to only be interested in bikes etc. I think they are unduly influenced by outside forces etc. They should only review bike plans etc., maybe.

But, the results of the Stevens Creek Blvd. Corridor Transit Vision Plan should be left In the hands of the Cupertino Planning Commission so everyone gets a fair say. We Need balanced input from all transportation modes involved, cars as well as bikes To make good, rational decisions based on the results of this multi-year study.

Thank you.

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, and Councilmembers,
I am writing to respectfully urge you to reaffirm the role of the Cupertino Planning Commission in reviewing and shaping transportation and mobility projects, as outlined in the Mobility Element of our General Plan.

Across the Bay Area, cities consistently treat transportation as an essential part of their planning commissions’ charter. Below are specific examples of how neighboring cities integrate transportation into their Planning Commission’s work:

Woodside Road Traffic Calming – Oct 21, 2024
Sequoia Station Transit Oriented Development – Nov 7, 2024 These examples show how transportation projects are reviewed through a planning lens, with public input and alignment with each city’s long-term vision.

Cupertino’s Mobility Element of the General Plan already makes clear that transportation is part of land use planning and therefore falls under the Planning Commission’s existing charter.

Yet I have observed that recent changes—such as intersection signal timing adjustments, roadway configuration changes, lane and parking removals—have not been presented to either the Planning Commission or the City Council. These decisions are occurring without proper public review and engagement.

I respectfully urge Council to:

1. Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall within the Planning Commission’s purview

2. Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects—including traffic signal timing changes, intersection redesigns, lane removals, parking removals, and parking ordinances—to the Planning Commission for hearing and recommendation

3. Ensure that no transportation or roadway change proceeds without a public hearing at either the Planning Commission or the City Council—or ideally both The Planning Commission is a quasi-judicial body designed to ensure community engagement and informed deliberation. Its hybrid format also increases accessibility for residents wishing to participate.

Transportation directly impacts the safety, accessibility, and quality of life of every Cupertino resident. I urge you to act now to ensure that all transportation decisions are reviewed transparently and with public input.

I am of the firm opinion that this item clearly falls under the purview of the Bicycle Pedestrian Commission and should be referred there. The Planning Commission should focus on its main job which is land use. Adding this project to its agenda would be inappropriate.

Dear City Council Members,
It has been brought to my attention that the council is discussing whether to direct the Planning Commission to review and provide input on the Stevens Creek Corridor Study instead of the more appropriate Bike Ped Commission.

It is my opinion that it is entirely inappropriate to refer the project to the Planning Commission for input. The Planning Commission's purview is land use matters ONLY. The Bike Ped Commission oversees transportation topics and is the right commission to provide input on this project.

It is not clear to me why this shift would even be considered. Shouldn't the commission that specializes in transportation issues like biking and walking (two healthy alternatives to cars that can be used to transport oneself) be the entity to which our council seeks advice as this is their area of expertise? Would you ask a general internist to perform your open heart surgery or would you want the cardiothoracic surgeon who has been trained and has expertise in this matter to be the one to operate?
I urge the council to continue to allow the Bike Ped Commission to hold ownership of transportation issues affecting the citizens of Cupertino.

Thank you for your time.

To the Cupertino City Council:

The Stevens Creek Vision Plan focuses on transportation. It is also substantially complete, the product of two years of intense community participation.

Please keep the responsibility for the Vision with your Bicycle and Pedestrian Commission, which is composed of citizen experts on transportation. If the Planning Commission would like to see it, by all means, make it an information item, but please do not shift the responsibility to a commission concerned primarily with land use.

I hope you will also, ultimately, approve the Vision and continue to build toward the full potential it calls for, including continuous protected bike lanes and dedicated bus lanes. With the protected bike lanes there today, Cupertino has set the standard for the rest of the local cities and agencies, and I look forward to all of the participants continuing to improve Stevens Creek Boulevard into the vibrant, safe, convenient, continuous, and multimodal corridor the community calls for in our Vision.

Many thanks,

Dear Council,
I am writing to express my disappointment at the fact that you will be discussing whether or not to allow the Planning Commission to provide input on the Stevens Creek Corridor Study.

This is a dangerous precedent to set, as it means the Planning Commission could exercise control over any city commission project. This is not the purpose of the Planning Commission, and using this as a means to not have to consider cyclist safety is frankly appalling.

Please remember that bicycling is not a fringe issue or a nuisance. For many people in our city, especially children and teens who are not old enough to drive, biking is their only means of independent transportation. Dismissing or minimizing bike and pedestrian safety means turning our backs on some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

Input about transportation in the Valley should include input about public transit, pedestrian, & bicyclist safety which is the concern of the Bike & Pedestrian Commission, not the Planning Commission which is concerned with land use.

Hello,
I'm writing because I'm hearing worrying news that the Stevens Creek Corridor Project may be taken from the Bike Ped Commission. I'm fully against this. The Bike Ped Commission handles transportation and should be the ones dealing with the Stevens Creek Corridor Project.

The Planning Commission shouldn't be the ones sending the input on this. Doing so would be completely inappropriate. Bike safety is a hugely important matter for me and I don't want to see it dismissed. I love the McClellan and Stevens Creek bike lanes, and the new buffers on De Anza.

As a Cupertino resident who greatly values the city's movement towards a safer and more welcoming place for pedestrians and bicycles, I am confused by the possible involvement of the Planning Commission on this study. It seems to be something well within the scope of the very important Bike Ped Commission.

I have lived in the Bay Area all my 73 years, and the steady improvement in walking and bicycling safety and increased routes has made an amazing difference in my life. as it has in the lives of many friends. I am writing to advocate strongly for everything the city can do to improve these elements in it. It's hard to see how involving the Planning Commission, whose work is about land use, should intervene in something that definitely requires the knowledge and interest of the Bike Ped Commission. Please leave this project where it so clearly belongs.

Dear Council,
I am writing to urge you to *not* refer the Stevens Creek Corridor Study to the Planning Commission for input. While I am a resident of Sunnyvale, I frequently travel between here and San Jose, as many people do, and will choose public transit or cycling where it is safe and feasible.

Adequate infrastructure to ensure cyclist and pedestrian safety is lacking through this whole region, particularly on larger streets such as Stevens Creek, and therefore this study is squarely in the purview of the BPAC.

For evidence that cars are dangerous (even to those in other cars) and we urgently need to prioritize more and safer alternatives, you can look no further than the recent CalMatters article out yesterday about fatally dangerous drivers: https://calmatters.org/investigation/2025/04/license- to-kill/
Thank you for your time,

Dear Mayor, Vice-Mayor and Councilmembers
I am writing in regard to Item 13 on the April 15 agenda, Direct Staff On Commission Review of the Stevens Creek Boulevard Corridor Vision Study (Study). The staff report concludes that “Either the Planning Commission or (emphasis added) the Bicycle Pedestrian Commission would be reasonable choices for review of the Study. As such, the City Council may decide which commission is the appropriate next entity to review and provide input to the City Council on this matter.”
I respectfully disagree with this opinion. The clear and correct choice for review of this Study is the Bicycle Pedestrian Committee (BPC) based on their Powers and Functions as listed in the Cupertino Municipal Code as follows:

The words “bicycle”, “pedestrian” and “transportation” make their appearance multiple times in the BPC Powers and Functions. The Study is clearly directed at the transportation infrastructure along a 9-mile stretch of Stevens Creek Boulevard which includes Cupertino. One of the Study goals as stated in the Vision statement is to provide a “A stress-free and enjoyable walking and bicycling environment. High-quality pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure would be prioritized to connect neighborhoods to the corridor within ½ mile or 20-minute walk of transit stops.” In addition, one of the Values and Guiding Principles of the Study is the Safety of All Corridor Users including eliminating transportation- related fatalities and severe injuries and to allow safe passage for vulnerable road users along and crossing the corridor.” I remind the council that the BPC put considerable effort and input into the Cupertino Vision Zero study recently approved by Council. The BPC will also be putting in considerable effort in the new Active Transportation Plan.

The staff report bases their opinion that the Planning Commission is an appropriate entity to review this Study on Section 2.32.070.G of the Municipal Code, which is to “Perform other functions as the City Council provides including conducting studies and preparing plans other than those required or authorized by state law.” In my opinion this is an overly broad interpretation of the Planning Commission powers. All the Powers and Functions of the Planning Commission are listed below. No where are the words “pedestrian”, “bicycle” or “transportation” mentioned. I would also add that a similar power is listed in the BPC Powers and Function in 2.92.080B6 which states “Any other activity that may be deemed appropriate and necessary.” I ask the Council the following question, Would they be comfortable having the BPC undertaking land use and zoning decisions? I certainly would not.

Thank you for your consideration on this matter

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, and Councilmembers,
I’m writing as a Cupertino resident who cares about how our city handles transportation. I believe it’s important that all major transportation decisions go through a public hearing—either at the Planning Commission, at the City Council, or both. This should include road design changes, traffic signal timing, intersection redesigns, parking removals, and lane reductions.

Many nearby cities already involve their Planning Commissions in transportation decisions. Here are just a few examples:

Sunnyvale – Planning Commission
Citywide Transportation System Plan – Oct 15, 2024
Caltrain Station Area Plan – Sep 10, 2024
Los Altos – Planning and Transportation Commission
Community Traffic Safety and Parking – Mar 5, 2024
Pedestrian and Bicycle Improvements – Jan 22, 2024
Santa Clara – Planning Commission
Traffic Calming Measures – Oct 2, 2024
Transportation Access for Mixed-Use Projects – Nov 6, 2024 Mountain View – Planning Commission
El Camino Real Mobility Plan – Jan 10, 2025
Hwy 101 Interchange Improvements – Dec 15, 2024
San José – Planning Commission
Safety Improvements at Race St and Parkmoor Ave – Feb 12, 2025 New Bike Lanes Project – Mar 18, 2025
These cities understand that transportation planning affects everyone and deserves input from the public through open meetings.

Our city’s General Plan (Mobility Element) already states that transportation is part of our planning policy. That means the Planning Commission should have the opportunity to hear and discuss these matters in a public meeting before decisions are finalized.

I respectfully ask the City Council to:

Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall under the Planning Commission’s responsibilities Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public hearings
Make sure no changes to streets, parking, or traffic proceed without review at a public Planning Commission or City Council hearing
Thank you for ensuring Cupertino residents have a voice in how our city’s transportation systems evolve.

Sincerely,
Deepa Mahendraker
Cupertino Resident

Subject: Re: Agenda Item Request: Minor Modification to Muni Code for Parking

Adding Vice Mayor, with whom I have discussed some of this.

I looked into the Muni Code for 72-hour parking restriction in Saratoga and Los Altos, who are also under the same Sheriff's Office:

Los Altos's version: "For the purposes of this section, a vehicle or trailer shall be considered to have been parked or left standing for seventy-two (72) or more consecutive hours if it has not been moved at least one thousand (1,000) feet during such seventy-two (72) hour period."
Saratoga's version: "A vehicle shall be considered to have been parked or left standing for seventy-two or more consecutive hours if it has remained inoperable or has not been moved and remained at least one mile from its original parked location for at least twenty-four hours during the seventy-two-hour period." I found Fremont's version is similar to Mountain View's version:

Fremont's version: "any vehicle that has been parked in the same location for 72 hours move at least 1,000 feet from its current location and may not return to the same parking spot for at least 24 hours" (adopted Nov. 2024) Fremont on restriction near residential streets: "Additionally, oversized vehicles, including any attached trailers, vehicles, or loads which exceed 22 feet in length, and/or 6 feet in width and 7 feet in height, are no longer allowed to park on any public street within 100 feet of a residential property line. The ordinance allows for limited exemptions of loading/unloading, emergency vehicles and commercial deliveries. If the oversized vehicle is not moved within 24 hours after receiving a warning notice, the vehicle could receive a citation and will be at risk for getting towed. "
(adopted Nov. 2024)
I realize that restrictions on oversized vehicles are more complicated since we need to consider exemptions to allow construction vehicles etc and we need to define over- sized vehicles. So, in the first version, I would just consider the minor modification on parking violation, which would not require a study session.

For restrictions on oversized vehicles, we would likely need a study session first to get public and council input, which could be considered as a part of the FY 2025-27 Work Program.

Adding Captain Neil.

Captain,
What do you think about a potential change in parking regulation to require a vehicle to move by 1000 feet after 72 hours? And not return to the same spot within. 24 hours.

This mirrors the regulation in Mountain View.

In terms of implementation, I suppose that this would be complaints based like other Muni code enforcement. So, there is no need to track every parked vehicle. Only a few ones where a complaint is submitted for violating this code.

Thank you.

Thank you for this information, Mayor. I appreciate the research!

From a legal perspective, I believe an updated like this could be implemented in short order.

Curious whether we would need to loop in the County Sheriff’s department? I assume the County Sheriff is the entity that enforces the parking ordinance. I think we should take a quick look at whatever MOU or other agreement the City has with the County.

I would be inclined to mirror Mountain View’s version. I like its simplicity.

Best,
Floy

*** EXTERNAL SENDER ***
I learned that the cities around us have revised their Muni Code to address the issue of RV parking and we are lacking behind.

I would like to propose a minor modification to the Muni Code for parking to address the issue that a vehicle could occupy the same section of a public street 24x7 as long as they move the vehicle by 6 inches. This is against the original intent of the Muni Code

11.24.130.

I have included relevant Muni Code sections from Mountain VIew and Sunnyvale, in addition to Cupertino's Muni Code below.

We could consider the two options:

Mountain View's version: Any vehicle must be moved at least one thousand (1000) feet (approximately two-tenths (2/10) of a mile) from its current location and may not return to the same parking spot for at least twenty-four (24) hours after its departure.

Sunnyvale's version: Pushing or moving a vehicle a short distance will not be considered compliance with this section. Additionally, successive acts of parking shall be presumed to be a single act of parking within the meaning of this section when the vehicle is moved merely for the purpose of avoiding the parking limitations prescribed by this section.

I hope that such minor modification could be considered in a timely manner.

Thank you.

Liang

============
Current Cupertino Muni Code

11.24.130 Prohibited for More than Seventy-Two Hours.

No person who owns or has in his possession, custody, or control any vehicle or trailer shall park such vehicle or trailer upon any public street or alley for more than a consecutive period of seventy-two hours.
(Ord. 843, § 6, 1977)

Mountain View Muni Code:

SEC. 19.72. - Seventy-Two (72) hour parking limit—Twenty-Four (24) hour no return. - Any vehicle that has been parked or left standing in the same location or parking spot for seventy-two (72) consecutive hours must be moved at least one thousand (1000) feet (approximately two-tenths (2/10) of a mile) from its current location and may not return to the same parking spot for at least twenty-four (24) hours after its departure.

Sunnyvale Muni Code
§ 10.16.120
Use of streets or public parking facilities for storage of vehicles prohibited.

It is unlawful for any person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any vehicle, including a boat or trailer, to park or leave such vehicle upon any street, alley, or public parking facility for a period of seventy-two consecutive hours or more. The intent of this section is to limit parking of vehicles, boats and trailers to seventy-two consecutive hours. A vehicle or trailer shall be considered to have been parked or left standing for seventy-two or more consecutive hours if it has remained inoperable or has not been moved. An inoperable vehicle is a vehicle that cannot be moved under its own power or a vehicle which cannot operate legally and safely on the highways of the state.

Pushing or moving a vehicle a short distance or attempting to rub away the tire marking will not be considered compliance with this section. Additionally, successive acts of parking shall be presumed to be a single act of parking within the meaning of this section when the vehicle is moved merely for the purpose of avoiding the parking limitations prescribed by this section.

Where are legal RV parking places within Santa Clara County? Other RV parking resources?
Has the Santa Clara County adopted any RV ordinance? Or surrounding cities, like Sunnyvale? (in case the information is readily available to staff)

If we do not wish RVs to occupy our streets, I hope to know where they can park legally with and without RV facilities.

"California Vehicle Code (CVC) 22651(k) and Cupertino Municipal Code (CMC) 11.24.130 state that vehicles cannot be parked in the same spot on a public street for more than 72 hours. "

Subject: Re: RV parking resources

Good morning Mayor Chao,

I have provided answers to your questions regarding RVs below:

Mary Avenue is not specifically designated for RV Parking.

The Rotating Safe Car Park (RSCP) program cannot accommodate RVs at this time. The RSCP provides parking spaces for passenger vehicles on private property. The risk of an RV breaking down or discharging grey or black water is very high. The private property owners are not likely to accept the risk.

California Vehicle Code (CVC) 22651(k) and Cupertino Municipal Code (CMC)

11.24.130 state that vehicles cannot be parked in the same spot on a public street for more than 72 hours. CVC 22651 (k) and CMC 11.24.130 aim to prevent abandoned vehicles from being stored on the street. Neither the CVC nor the CMC specifically prevents RVs from parking on public streets, and unless posted otherwise, all legally parked vehicles can be on public streets. Neither the CVC nor the CMC specify the distance a vehicle must travel to have been considered "moved." While mostly complaint-based, Code Enforcement regularly patrols areas of the city known to have RVs parked to enforce the 72-hour and street sweeping rules. Of all the parking citations issued by Code Enforcement, violations for CVC 22651 (k) and street sweeping are the most common. In FY 24, approximately 280 citations or warnings were issued.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Thank you,
Tom

Subject: RV parking resources

Given the high interest in RV Parking issue right now, I hope to understand what resources there are for RV parking in Cupertino and surrounding areas or the County.

I heard that Mary Ave is a designated RV parking site?
Does the rotating Safe Parking program accommodate RVs?

I think it's important to reasonably accommodate RV parking to support RV dwellers.

But they do not have the right to occupy the public street 24-7 as their own private parking space.

Thus, I’d like to know what’s the practice in terms of issuing fines when muni codes for street parking or street cleaning are violated.

(Fixed typo for FHDA and changed the subject line. Added Vice Chancellor Christopher Dela Rosa)
Dear FHDA Friends,
Last night (April 2), the City Council unanimously voted to schedule a study session on the potential impacts of converting multifamily housing—such as McClellan Terrace— into student housing. We will be examining the effects on the City’s affordable housing stock in comparable price ranges, as well as parking and public safety concerns associated with changing the use from 94 family units to housing for 332 unrelated young adults.

For me, the decision to agendize the study session is out of the great concern of the loss of affordable housing stock in the price range as McClellan Terrace. As indicated by the research done in the attached email by Rhoda Fry,
Terrace rents are more affordable than others in the area.

Terrace is the only large complex that is in the Monta Vista tri-school area.

As mentioned by a member of the public at the April 2 City Council meeting, this is a housing justice issue: converting McClellan Terrace to student housing would deprive 94 families of access to high-performing schools like Lincoln Elementary, Kennedy Middle, and Monta Vista High. There are no other nearby units in a similar price range, which runs counter to the goal of Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing included in the Housing Element we recently adopted.

I would like to understand more about the Foothill-De Anza College Board’s decision- making process in choosing to purchase an older apartment complex rather than constructing on-campus student dormitories. If available, it would be extremely helpful if you could share any comparative studies or cost analyses your team has conducted.

Some questions that come to mind include:

1. Has FHDA considered building on-campus student dormitories? Why was this option not pursued?

2. Has FHDA considered the ongoing maintenance costs for 94 individual 50- year-old apartments—each with its own kitchen and bathrooms—when occupied by 332 young adults, who might not maintain it responsibly as common tenants?

3. How do these costs compare to maintaining a typical student dormitory, which often features a shared kitchen per building and one or two large shared bathrooms per floor?
In particular, has FHDA considered the potential efficiencies of newly constructed dormitories with state-of-the-art facilities for technology access?

4. Which option is more affordable for students—purchasing older apartment units or constructing new dormitories on campus?

5. Has FHDA estimated the additional public safety costs associated with maintaining off-campus student housing?
Would FHDA cover these costs, or is there an expectation that the City of Cupertino would bear them?
Based on the experiences in other cities, like Berkeley, there are additional public safety issues for student housing, compared with housing for family units, as you must know.

As Mayor of Cupertino, I must carefully evaluate the impact that off-campus student housing will have on our City. I appreciate any information you can share, and I look forward to discussing these issues further.

I hope FHDA fully utilizes the 120-day due diligence period to thoroughly evaluate these options and questions, ensuring that purchasing McClellan Terrace for off-campus student housing is both socially responsible and fiscally sound.

Warm regards,
Liang

Hi Liang,
Thanks for the thread to pull everyone together. A couple of notes to add context to your summary:

1. On the observation that CUSD is interested in selling Finch, I just want to add the full context that we're interested in a property exchange to exchange the Finch asset into another real estate investment that generates a revenue stream. Similar to our Montebello property exchange last year, this will likely involve multiple transactions with multiple parties, and we've engaged with a real estate firm to help with this. Any transaction we'd have with the City regarding Finch would be just one part of the exchange and the City wouldn't be involved in other parts of this exchange.

2. Superintendent Yao will be back in town on April 19. I'm staying a few extra days after the student delegation events and will be back on April 22.

I think we are on the same page - not seeing any differences in understanding. We can use the Friday time to discuss perhaps what information the City needs from the District to have a productive discussion during your May 6 council meeting? Thanks,
Jerry

Added Floy Andrews, our new City Attorney. Chris Jew, CUSD's CTO. Nancy Mak, CUSD's Executive Assistant.

Thank you, Jerry, for the discussion yesterday to clarify that CUSD is indeed interested in selling the Finch Property at market value, but the property has not been assessed yet.

While CUSD is interested in investing the income from the sell in other revenue generating options, the sell of the Finch Property could be done independent from any revenue-generating option CUSD might pursue.

That's my understanding from Jerry. I hope to confirm that we are on the same page.

I initially was very confused since Pamela has told me in very concern language repeatedly that "CUSD does want to sell" since January 2025. Back in August 2024 Cupertino City staff has told CUSD that "Cupertino has no money".

Then in October 2024, Pamela has told CUSD that Cupertino City has no interest in purchasing since she stated:
"The City was asked if there is any plan to lease or purchase the Finch property. I informed CUSD that the City has no plan to either lease or purchase the Finch property. This is not part of the current CIP project and the City was in no financial condition to make any further purchase.”
Then, finally in March 2025, I realized that I need to proactively reach out to CUSD to ensure that we communicate effectively.

Thus, I hope to clarify some things here so that we are on the same page.

The current uncommitted balance of the parkland dedication fee is about $13M, according to the info memo February 13, 2025 - Parkland Dedication Fees(PDF, 243KB). There is about $22M potential parkland fees from already entitled projects and another $20M from current pending projects.

The City Council was never consulted back in August 2024 or October 2024 to weigh in on any interest to consider an option to purchase or lease the Finch Property. No information was given to the Council, and no input was sought from the Council at that time.

There has been community interest in keeping the Finch Property to serve the public interest, either through the City or through the school district.

Vice Mayor Kitty Moore and Mayor Chao do have a strong interest to look into the possibility of purchasing the Finch Property or partnering with CUSD in some way so that the Finch Property benefits the community.

However, the Council does need more information in order to decide whether the purchase or any other option is reasonable for the City's best interest.

Jerry did say that CUSD wishes to have some resolution on the Finch Property in the next few months. But I am not certain whether you have a hard deadline for any decision.

I would propose to agendize an item in open session for the May 6 Council meeting so that the Council could decide on whether the Council intends to consider the purchase of the Finch Property, likely with the parkland dedication fee.

The agenda for the May 6 meeting would be published by April 29. It would be helpful if the agenda packet includes
the info memo on the current and projected parkland dedication fee.

The property information about the Finch Property and any public information, any improvement or environment cleanup done so far.

Any information on potential assessed value of the property or similar property (if the information is public)
Any information from CUSD on their intention with the Finch Property and any other partnership options besides selling the property might be helpful.

I suppose as a part of the May 6 agenda, the Council might designate a city staff to be the negotiator or get a consultant to negotiate with CUSD. Then, there will more discussions in closed sessions with any due diligence report and assessment report. (For this portion, I would rely on the city staff to guide us on any legal requirement.)
I know that both Jerry and Stacy are leaving on April 12 for Taiwan to join their student delegation in Hsinchu and won't be back until April 24.

And the entire week of April 13 is CUSD holiday where the office is closed.

If we are all on the same page with what I've written above, it seems we don't really need a meeting where Kitty or I or Jerry need to attend.

It seems as long as the staff can coordinate to get sufficient information for the upcoming May 6 council meeting, that is fine.

Therefore, I have added Chris Jew since he might be able to provide whatever information needed even if Stacy might be away.

Regards,
Liang

Hi Liang,
Your idea of having a discussion among two council members and two board members and staff sounds appropriate for the 2x2 meetings that has been set up. I would suggest we agendize Finch for the next meeting and also move up the schedule as one just occurred a few weeks ago and these tend to be only a few times a year.

The district has held multiple public meetings discussing our property plans. The last major discussion was during our board advance in January. The slides are at preview.png
CUSD Board Advance Jan. 23, 2025
PDF Document · 14.1 MB
and the property section starts on slide 81. I’m also including the two slides on Finch here:

The meetings are recorded and available for viewing but the gist of the recommendation is that we exchange our real estate holdings from an illiquid form to one that generates ongoing revenue. Identifying new revenue sources is an increasingly urgent issue as our current multi-year budget projection shows us not able to maintain the traditionally 6% reserve, and we just this month issued layoff notices to some of our staff.

The CUSD board has reviewed the Finch options multiple times and asked many questions since last summer so I think at this point we should be able to provide any information that the city council needs. I would invite you to send your questions to Stacy as soon as possible. I do think the district needs to move forward on this decision soon, given our budget gaps and the uncertainty around education funding in this climate.

Thanks,
Jerry

We hope to start an informal discussion about the Finch Property to get some basic information and understand CUSD's plan between two councilmembers and two board members, and of course relevant staff members.

What do you think?
My sense is that there is a desire in the community to keep the Finch Property for public use, rather than seeing it developed into private use, such as for housing. However, I think the Council needs more information before deliberating on the issue, both on the property, on CUSD's plan and on our plans with the current and future Park Impact Fees or other funds.

Liang

Subject: Agenda Item Request - consider Finch Property for potential purchase or other partnership with CUSD
Finch Property was included in one of the proposed FY 2025-27 Work Program for evaluating city properties.

I am told that CUSD would likely make decisions about Finch Property in a few months so the City of Cupertino should make a decision on our interest.

Therefore, I hope to add this to the Council agenda for consideration.

Ideally, the agenda item should include the following
information:

Information about the Finch Property itself.

Any communication about the Finch Property from
CUSD.

The info memo on the current balance and estimated
future parkland impact fee.

I wonder whether it might be more efficient to conduct a special joint meeting with CUSD Board since the
communication with the CUSD Superintendent and their board members have been inconsistent. Thus, it might be best to have a joint meeting.

Thank you,

Liang

Subject: Parkland dedication fees: current balance and projected income

As I have said a few times, the Cupertino City Council has not agendized the item for Finch Property to have any discussion.

Whether the city has funding in the general fund is not relevant since any funding for any parkland purchase would likely come from parkland dedication fees.

Personally, I do not have a position on that until I have more data on the current and projected parkland dedication fees and until receive public input and had a council discussion.

Thus, we have asked for an info memo on the current balance and projected parkland dedication fees.

02 - February 13, 2025 - Parkland Dedication Fees(PDF, 243KB)

From that memo, the current uncommitted balance of the
parkland dedication fee is about $13M.
"The Park Dedication Fund began Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 with an opening fund balance of $19,046,081, as reported in the FY 2023-24 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. Accounting for budgeted revenues of $478,000 and expenditures of
$5,940,456, the available balance to date is $13,583,625."

There is about $22M potential parkland fees from already entitled projects and another $20M from current pending projects.

However, the recent trend is that the developers are requesting the city to waive parkland impact fees.

For example, Vallco Property Owners received about $70M in fee waivers (Traffic Impact fee) in a settlement.

The report also goes on to estimate a total of $140M in parkland impact fees from the 3,237 new units from the current 2025-2031 Housing Element, provided all of the planned new units are entitled and built. But the performance depends on the market condition for the builders and their investors.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

PLEASE INCLUDE THIS EMAIL AS PART OF WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS FOR THE ABOVE MEETING AGENDA ITEM.

Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore and Councilmembers,

In the Staff Report for this item, they recommend the following:
#1-13, accept staff recommendations
#14-18, provide staff direction

CONCERN REGARDING SEVERAL ITEMS IN STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
#1-4 are all related to remodeling/interim city hall location REQUEST: These could be removed from the list BUT the information needs to be presented in public when an interim City Hall comes up for discussion. Maybe move these to the City Hall work program?

#8 Study session for CIP approval process
REQUEST: Once a CIP project gets “approved” by being added to the list, it still needs to be reviewed like any private development project. It should come before the Planning Commission for review. Many of these projects have designs which should be vetted by staff but also by commissions and the public.

ITEMS NEEDING STAFF DIRECTION:
#14 Sound amplification devices in parks – REMOVE IT!
We don’t need music blaring when we go to our parks to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of our open spaces. There is so much noise all around us from I-280, Hwy 85, airplanes, etc.

Please remove this item. We have a process for people to get an exception via a permit. Keep it that way.

#15 Restore previous Audit Committee responsibilities – AGENDIZE IT-as soon as possible!

#16 Put transportation projects under Planning Commission – AGENDIZE IT-as soon as possible!

#17 Proclamations and Certificates-guidelines and procedures – AGENDIZE IT!

#18 Consider Finch Property for purchase or partnership w CUSD – AGENDIZE IT-as soon as possible!

I’d like to thank the staff and the council for making progress on these items.

Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin

Subject: Purchase of Finch Property by Cupertino

(Please include the following as public input for Item #14 on the City Council agenda For the 4/15/25 meeting concerning the purchase of the Finch Property adjacent to Sedgwick Elementary School by the City of Cupertino, hopefully for parkland) Dear City Council:

Thank you for having the potential purchase of the Finch Property, directly adjacent to Sedgwick Elementary School, by the city of Cupertino, be an item to be considered by the City Council.

I am very happy that the city is considering purchasing the property as it is in an excellent Location for a park, being so deep into the neighborhood of Rancho Rinconada, Loree Estates And Fairgrove and other communities. It is also adjacent to the three schools of Cupertino High School, Hyde Middle School and Sedgwick Elementary School, all within the boundaries of the City of Cupertino.

I have attended many meetings over the past years concerning the Finch property, and I am greatly In favor of Cupertino purchasing the land for parkland. It is not a good location for high density Housing because of the traffic impacts on the adjacent areas and roadways, especially with children From the three schools so close by, coming and going etc. The property sits on a tight corner And with many intersections close by and wound not be suitable for an increase of traffic.

There is also a very large redwood tree on the Finch property that is at least eight feet in diameter.

I would imagine this tree is at least 80 years old or more as it is the size of the redwood tree On my brother's property in Los Gatos where the Victorian house was built in 1893. The redwood on His property was planted at about the same time as the house and is the same size as the Finch tree.

That redwood is now about 130 years old so the Finch Redwood could be 100 years or more.

The Finch Redwood could not be taken down and it is perfectly located on the Finch Property for A park tree. It is truly a specimen tree. It is amazing to have a potential park come already housing Such a perfect specimen tree! Imagine the wildlife and birds that call that huge tree home! The eastern neighborhoods of Cupertino do not have very many parks. Acquiring the Finch Property As potential parkland would benefit so many people. It is a jewel that is waiting to become a much Beloved park. The work we do today ensures that generations to come have parkland to enjoy! It appears that there is adequate money in the city's park dedication fee fund to purchase the Finch Property for a park.

One idea might be to have Cupertino take the half of the property with the large redwood tree and Have that become a community park for the neighborhoods and Cupertino. The other half Of the parcel adjacent to Sedgwick School could be retained by the school district as an annex of Land for Sedgwick Elementary School to house more classrooms or as sports fields.

I am so happy to think that Cupertino may be able to purchase the Finch Property for a future Park. This is such a wonderful prospect to imagine!
Thank you very much.

Best regards,
Jennifer Griffin

Subject: Written Comment -- Please Involve the Planning Commission in Transportation Projects Date: Tuesday, April 15, 2025 3:49:59 PM
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe.

Dear Council & City Clerk,
Please include the below in written communications for the 04/15/25 city council meeting for Agenda Item 13, which asks Council to vote on whether the SCB corridor vision study should go to the Bicycle Pedestrian versus Planning Commission.

Writing on behalf of myself -- Rather than placing a single project on the agenda for Council to assign, why not have an agenda item that allows Council to discuss and adopt a comprehensive framework for how all future transit-related projects should be routed to commissions? Without this, will Council need to vote on commission assignments for every individual transit project moving forward?
Last year, several City Councilmembers already asked to agendize the addition of transit to the Planning Commission scope, which technically would solve the question raised above. To more efficiently use Council time, I would ask that transit-related projects requiring commission input automatically go past the Planning Commission, rather than requiring Council time to deliberate and vote. Our Council and staff both have many important priorities to handle, and having a clear framework for routing projects to commissions would remove one administrative burden from the load.

The norm for many neighboring cities is to involve the Planning Commission in transportation decisions. In fact, both Los Altos and Palo Alto have a joint Planning & Transit Commission.

Our city’s General Plan (Mobility Element) states that transportation is part of our planning policy. That means the Planning Commission should have the opportunity to hear and discuss these matters in a public meeting before decisions are finalized.

I respectfully ask the City Council to:
- Reaffirm that transportation and mobility fall under the Planning Commission’s responsibilities
- Direct staff to bring all current and future transportation projects to the Planning Commission and/or City Council for public hearings
- Ensure no changes to streets, parking, or traffic proceed without review at a public Planning Commission or City Council hearing
Thank you,
Tracy
