Notable accomplishments

Transportation
The new Lawson Middle School Bikeway Project was completed in the summer of FY 2025. This new, two- way separated bike path along the school’s frontage provides a safe and convenient way for students to get to the campus bike cages without crossing lanes of car traffic.

The project, which resulted from a
successful partnership between the City, Lawson Middle School, the Cupertino Union School District, and the local community, is the City’s first two-way, on-street separated bike path.

Funding for the project was
provided entirely by Apple through their donation to the City’s Walk Audit project list.

Transportation Division staff have created an on-line Collision Dashboard that provides comprehensive access to reported traffic collision data from 2018 through 2024, as well as a Traffic Flow Map that offers valuable insights into travel patterns by displaying Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volumes along with 16-hour bicycle and pedestrian counts across city streets. Together, these tools provide transparency and empower residents, stakeholders, and policymakers with accessible, reliable information to understand roadway safety and travel patterns, and will be updated regularly as new data becomes available. 12th annual Cupertino Fall Bike Fest - On Saturday, September 27, Safe Routes to School hosted the 12th annual Cupertino Fall Bike Fest at City Hall Plaza. The plaza was abuzz with more than 30 bike-related activities organized by local bike and environmental organizations, including 2 community bike rides and a Proposed Budget Book FY 2026-2027 367379

Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Grant Funding – The Transportation Division received a $184,000 grant from the California Office of Transportation Safety (OTS) to enhance its Safe Routes to School (SR2S) Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Program. The initiative, running through September 2026, aims to promote safe walking and biking practices and raise awareness among drivers to be mindful of pedestrians and cyclists.

The grant will fund several activities, including pedestrian and bicycle safety training, helmet distribution and fitting, and community and school presentations on safety.

Oversized Vehicle Online Parking Permit module went online for residents in October 2025. Public Works, Information and Technology and Code Enforcement staff collaborated to produce this easy-to-use website for residents to obtain their free parking permits.

The Stevens Creek Corridor Vision Study was presented to City Council in September 2025, and the City Council conditionally accepted the study. Council clarified the conditions that need to be met before any future Cupertino support for the project.

The Wolfe Rd/I-280 project is a VTA lead initiative to improve the interchange at this intersection. The project required additional funding in order for construction to be initiated. Public Works staff worked directly with Apple to secure the outstanding funds needed to initiate the project. Apple donated and $2.6M dollars, and worked with the City to reallocate an additional $1.4M dollars of funding towards the interchange project to address the funding gap.

Compliance activities – Division staff worked with GIS to digitize two stormwater inspection forms for the IND and IDDE programs. Staff will begin using the new digital forms along with the paper forms this fiscal year to make sure everything that is required in the annual stormwater report to the Water Board is being captured. In FY 26-27, only the digital forms will be used, which will lead to staff time efficiency

SB 1383 update - Staff continued working with Recology staff to conduct routine visits to nearly 700 businesses as well as help many residents with general sorting questions and education on best practices for separating food scraps. Over 100 kitchen pails were given to residents to assist with their organic waste diversion efforts. City staff and Recology also partnered with De Anza College and CUSD schools to help move them into compliance with SB 1383 requirements.

Coat Collection - Collaborated with Recology and the Cupertino Library to collect over 5 barrels of new and gently used coats and jackets, which were donated to Sacred Heart Community Services to provide warmth to those in need.

Community Composting Classes - Staff coordinated with the UC Cooperative Extension to host two backyard compost classes for residents to learn how to build compost piles, vermicompost, and apply the compost in their own garden or landscape. Residents who attend a workshop are eligible to receive a free compost or worm bin upon request. 12 bins were delivered.

Compliance activities - To comply with stormwater pollution prevention regulations, the City will conduct 110 preventative Industrial and Commercial Site Controls (IND) stormwater inspections. In FY 25-26 staff responded to and resolved 35 reports of discharges and threats of discharge to the storm drain system for the Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE) program.

Compliance activities - The City of Cupertino reached its stormwater permit requirement of 100 percent trash load reduction. This was the result of over 15 years of concentrated effort across multiple divisions and departments. To meet this requirement the city conducted commercial and industrial stormwater inspections, created and implemented a Private Lands Drainage Area (PLDA) program, conducted anti- litter education and outreach, and installed over 200 full trash capture devices in the city’s stormwater inlets along roads and at city facilities.

Creek Cleanups - Hosted a site at Wilson Park for Coastal Cleanup Day on September 20, 20255 with over thirty-two volunteers and a total of 80 pounds of trash and debris removed. The next event will be National Proposed Budget Book FY 2026-2027 368380

Total Revenues 1,537,607.00
Total Expenditures 1,497,486.00
Total FTE 2.37
Program Overview
The Non-Point Source program manages the City’s compliance with its State-mandated Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit. Compliance activities include program and policy development and implementation of state-mandated complaint response and enforcement programs as well as annual interdepartmental staff training; and scheduled business and construction site inspections. The program reviews development plans to ensure compliance with low impact development (LID); and new Green Infrastructure Plan development requirements. The program is responsible for calculating storm drain fees annually to submit to the County for collection on property tax bills, writing an annual report to the Regional Water Quality Control Board to verify and document the City’s compliance with Clean Water Act mandates, and engaging and educating the public via City communication channels, visits to businesses and presentations at local schools, De Anza College and community events. Public participation events in a typical year include two or more annual volunteer creek cleanup days, an interactive water quality monitoring day, Earth Day and various countywide collaborative events. Implementation and annual progress assessment of the City’s eight-year litter reduction plan are among the requirements of the City’s Non-Point Source program.

Collection and management of storm water for the City is regulated under the terms of a Bay Area-wide State- mandated National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit.

Service Objectives
Oversee the City’s compliance with the Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit (MRP 2.0) with regard to water pollution prevention, erosion control, conserving water as a resource (e.g. infiltration rather than runoff), and low impact development (LID) via the City's permit application process and conditions of approval.

Coordinate urban runoff pollution and erosion prevention activities with other departments, divisions, and private businesses. Mandated activities include: catch basin cleaning; post-construction oversight of permanent stormwater treatment measures installed at private new and redeveloped sites; implementation Public Works

of, and annual progress assessments for the eight-year litter reduction plan; oversight of construction best management practices during private and public construction; inspection of grease-generating and wet- waste food facilities and other businesses to prevent water-polluting discharges; complaint response and investigation to protect water quality; and education of staff and local businesses on best management practices for outdoor storage and activities.

Represent the City on county and regional committees to prevent creek and San Francisco Bay pollution, erosion, and illegal dumping.

Proposed Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $1,497,486 for the Non-Point Source program. This represents an increase of $40,295 (2.76%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.

This budget is relatively unchanged from the prior fiscal year Adopted Budget.

Total Revenues –

Total FTE –
Program Overview
The City has a joint use agreement for playing fields at schools in CUSD, and part of that agreement requires a refund to CUSD of half of the fees they pay each year for the Clean Water and Storm Protection Fee, which is based on parcel size and use category. The details of the fee prohibit using collected funds for providing discounts or refunds, so funding for that purpose must come from the General Fund.

In addition, the City has a Clean Water Cost-Share Program allowing low-income property owners to receive a discounted rate on the Clean Water and Storm Protection Fee that is charged on property tax bills. The details of the fee prohibit using collected taxes for providing discounts or refunds, so funding for this purpose must come from the General Fund.

Proposed Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $10,183 for the General Fund Subsidy program. This represents a decrease of $1,807 (-15.07%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget. The decrease is attributed primarily to a decrease in Contract Services and Cost Allocation.

Program Overview
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Division plans, manages, and implements improvements to city land, parks, building and infrastructure. These projects are derived from resident input, master plans, needs assessments, interdepartmental requirements, maintenance of the City’s facilities, and innovations in our understandings of how the facilities can best serve our population. The division undertakes all aspects of project implementation, including contract administration for design, construction, and overall project management. Project types include, but are not limited to streets, sidewalks, storm drainage, buildings, parks, bicycle and pedestrian improvements and other public facilities. Responsibilities also include claims avoidance, environmental and regulatory compliance and monitoring, and the development of the annual budget and program scope.

Service Objectives
Ensure that all public improvements are designed and constructed in accordance with community expectations and City standards.

Place safety of the general public, City employees and workers as the highest priority in the delivery of capital projects.

Respond to public inquiries or complaints in a timely manner.

Proposed Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $1,363,062 for the CIP Administration program. This represents an increase of $215,254 (18.75%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.

The increase is primarily due to increase in Employee Compensation and Cost Allocation expenses.

Program Overview
The Silicon Valley (SV) Hopper, formerly Via-Cupertino, is an on-demand ride-share community shuttle. The app-based service, initiated as a pilot in 2019 serving only Cupertino, has been expanded to provide transportation to anywhere in Cupertino, a portion of Santa Clara, and El Camino Hospital and Caltrain in Mountain View as a result of State TIRCP grant funding the expansion and a conversion to an EV-only fleet.

Service Objectives
Provide safe, affordable and convenient transportation alternative to the single-occupancy vehicle Reduce greenhouse gas emissions and congestion by providing first- and last-mile connections to regional transit systems such as Caltrain, VTA, Amtrak and BART
Support climate change goals through deployment of a completely electrified vehicle fleet Augment transportation alternatives for disadvantaged communities in Silicon Valley Proposed Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $5,810,610 for the Community Shuttle program. This represents an increase of $1,740,338 (42.75%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.

The increase is due to an increase in Contract Services, which are 75% cost-recovered. Per the original agreement, the rate for year four is $5,810,610.

Program Overview
Non-Departmental programs encompass a variety of revenues that are not directly tied to any specific department or program. These revenues include sales tax, property tax, and transient occupancy tax revenues, which are then allocated to various departments as required.

Additionally, Non-Departmental programs also account for the transfers of monies between various funds, which provide subsidies and resources to the receiving fund to support operating, debt service, and capital project costs. General Fund subsidies are included in these transfers, which are evaluated annually to ensure that funds outside of the General Fund end the year with sufficient fund balance. Typically, transfers are made to Special Revenue and Enterprise Funds that require subsidies due to their revenues falling short of full program costs. Furthermore, the City has recurring transfers to fund the costs associated with Annual Debt Payment and Compensated Absences.

For more detailed information on General Fund revenues, please refer to the Financial Schedules: General Fund Revenues.

Adopted Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $9,024,100 for the General Fund Non-Departmental program. This represents a decrease of $1,589,533 (15.0%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.

Total Revenues 2,675,100.00
Total Expenditures 2,675,100.00
Total FTE –
Program Overview
The Debt Service Program accounts for the payment of principal and interest and associated administrative costs incurred with the issuance of debt instruments for the City’s Public Facilities Corporation. The budget funds the Corporation’s annual payment of principal and interest on the City Hall/Library, Wilson/Memorial Open Space, and Library Certificates of Participation (COP) that will be paid off by the year 2030.

The majority of the borrowings occurred in early 1990 to acquire additional park real estate and expand community facilities. A breakdown of the capital acquisitions follows:

Increased 90 acres of park real estate to 190 acres, a 111% increase Increased 26,031 sq ft of recreation building space to 84,460 sq ft, a 224% increase Specific purchases included:

Blackberry Farm - $18 million, voter-approved debt
Creekside Park - $12 million, voter-approved debt
Sports Center - $8 million
Quinlan Community Center, including park real estate - $6.1 million Wilson Park and improvements - $5.6 million
Jollyman Park development - $1 million
City Hall renovation/improvements - $1.7 million
Library renovation/improvements - $1.7 million
New Library and Community Hall - $10 million

Most recently, the City added debt to fund the new Library and Community Hall in 2004.

In May 2012, the Corporation refinanced its $44 million in outstanding debt to lower the interest rate and save approximately $350,000 per year in debt payments. On September 29, 2020, the City’s 2020A Certificates of Participation (2020 COPs) were successfully sold to refund the City’s 2012 Certificates of Participation for debt service savings. The refunding generated net present value savings of approximately $3.14 million, 11.61% of refunded par, and a True Interest Cost of 0.72%. Savings to the City’s General Fund amounts to approximately $494,000 per year for the next ten years or almost $5 million in total savings.

In addition, funding sources for each project are reviewed and then allocated appropriately. After this review, the remaining balance of the project left to fund is then transferred from the Capital Reserve Fund.

Adopted Budget
It is recommended that City Council approve a budget of $6,730,000 for the Capital Reserve Non- Departmental program. This represents an increase of $4,730,000 (237.0%) from the FY 2025-26 Adopted Budget.

The inclusion of current and historical "actual" and "budget" information is a necessary component of the Government Finance Officer's Association (GFOA) reporting requirements. Due to the extensive amount of financial data, it is important to understand the meaning of these tables. "Actual" data represents actual revenues or expenditures that have been recognized or incurred in the respective fiscal year. Although amounts were budgeted in those years, these actual amounts are irrespective of the budget which should be taken into account when comparing historical actuals with current budgeted figures. Historical budget versus actual information for the last 4 fiscal years at the account detail level is available in the Appendix on the City's budget website (cupertino.org/budget).
