City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Subject: Approve Administrative Amendment to Paragraph 2.2 of the Peninsula Clean Energy Joint Powers Agreement Reflecting the Name Change of Peninsula Clean Energy Authority to WestLight Energy
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to Paragraph
2.2 of the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Joint Powers Agreement to reflect the new agency name approved by the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Board of Directors on October 23, 2025.
Background/Discussion
On October 23, 2025, the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Board of Directors voted to adopt a new market-facing agency name of WestLight Energy following extensive research and a lengthy stakeholder engagement process. The name was selected in part to address several challenges that limit the effectiveness of the name Peninsula Clean Energy with deeper decarbonization goals across Peninsula Clean Energy’s service territory, including ongoing confusion with PG&E. The acronym “PCE” is often mistaken for PG&E, causing persistent brand confusion. Further, Peninsula Clean Energy reflects a geographic limitation given that the word “Peninsula” no longer reflects PCE’s full service territory.
Member agencies are now required to approve an administrative amendment to Paragraph 2.2 of the JPA to formally update the agency’s legal name in that paragraph and throughout the JPA document. Approval of the Resolution ensures the City of Daly City remains aligned with the governing documents of the Joint Powers Authority and allows Peninsula Clean Energy the opportunity to implement the name transition in coordination with its 10-year anniversary and broader brand rollout.
Fiscal Impact
Costs associated with the rebranding effort are borne by the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority.
Summary/Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to Paragraph
2.2 of the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Joint Powers. Staff is available to provide any additional information requested by the Mayor or Councilmembers.
Respectfully submitted,

City Council Agenda Report Item # _____
Considerati
Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Subject: Consider Partnership with the Pilipino Bayanihan Resource Center for a Kamayan Feast Fundraiser event at the Pacelli Event Center
Recommended Action
Consider City Partnership with the Pilipino Bayanihan Resource Center (PBRC) at the Pacelli Event Center to host the Kamayan Feast Fundraiser event on Saturday, June 13, 2026, and consider fee waivers.
Background
PBRC is a community-based nonprofit in Daly City dedicated to empowering individuals and families through education, advocacy, and access to essential resources. Rooted in the spirit of bayanihan—coming together to uplift one another—PBRC serves the Filipino community while remaining open and inclusive to people of all backgrounds. For over 10 years, PBRC has proudly partnered with the City of Daly City Department of Recreation Services, serving on the planning committee for the Kasayahan sa Daly City cultural event and helping sponsor and support community events such as Spring Fun Day and other programs that strengthen connections across Daly City.
Discussion
PBRC is hosting an event on Saturday, June 13, 2026. As a partner, the City would host the event at the Pacelli Event Center and promote the event to the Daly City community.
The Kamayan Feast Fundraiser is inspired by the Filipino tradition of sharing a communal meal, celebrating culture, togetherness, and connection through food. While kamayan meals are traditionally enjoyed without utensils, this event will offer utensils for guest comfort while preserving the spirit of gathering and shared experience. Proceeds from the fundraiser will directly support PBRC’s community programs and services, including educational workshops, youth and family resources, cultural programming, and outreach efforts that benefit diverse communities throughout the area.
As a partner, the City would host the event at the Pacelli Event Center on Saturday, June 13, 2026 from 3 - 10pm. The chart below depicts all costs associated with the rental:

P.I.T. will host its third annual Pickleball Tournament and Toy Drive on Saturday, December 5, 2026, at the War Memorial Community Center. This event aims to blend recreation, community engagement, and philanthropy by encouraging attendees to donate toys for children in need during the holiday season. The tournament is designed to raise awareness, increase participation, and foster a sense of unity while supporting a charitable cause.
In addition to the Toy Drive event, P.I.T. plans to organize a series of athletic tournaments in Spring 2027 (April/May) that serve as lead-up activities to its Annual SHINE Family Day Festival, in partnership with the City of Daly City.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Subject: Acceptance of $20,000 Charitable Gift from the Margaret A. Zeiter Revocable Trust for the Doelger Senior Center
Recommended Action
Adopt a resolution accepting a $20,000 charitable gift from the Margaret A. Zeiter Revocable Trust for the benefit of the Doelger Senior Center and authorize the City Manager (or designee) to execute all documents necessary to receive the funds.
Background
Margaret A. Zeiter established the Margaret A. Zeiter Revocable Trust, as amended and restated in 2016. Upon her death, the trust directs the trustee to distribute $20,000 to the Doelger Senior Center, located at 101 Lake Merced Boulevard, Daly City, California.
The Doelger Senior Center is operated by the Department of Recreation Services of the City of Daly City. As such, acceptance of charitable gifts requires formal action by the City Council.
The trustee has provided notice pursuant to California Probate Code section 16061.7 and is prepared to distribute the funds upon confirmation of acceptance by the City.
Discussion
Section 5.2(a) of the trust provides a mandatory charitable distribution of $20,000 to the Doelger Senior Center, provided the beneficiary is able to accept the gift and qualifies as a charitable entity at the time of distribution.
Because the Center is a city department, acceptance by City Council resolution is required.
Acceptance of this gift will allow the City to support programs, services, and activities benefiting older adults served by the Doelger Senior Center, consistent with donor intent.
There are no conditions attached to the gift other than its use for the benefit of the Doelger Senior Center.
Fiscal Impact
The $20,000 gift will increase revenues to the City. Funds will be deposited into a Special Deposits account (16100000-24032) and designated for Doelger Senior Center programs and expenditures.
There is no adverse impact on the General Fund.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Subject: Amendment to the Professional Service Agreement for Construction Management and Inspection Services for Northern Cities Smart Corridor Expansion Project
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to the agreement for professional services with Zoon Engineering of Emeryville, California, to provide construction management and inspection services for the Northern Cities Smart Corridor Expansion Project in the amount of $125,730.95 for a total contract amount of $720,455.25.
Background
The City/County Association of Governments of San Mateo County (C/CAG) is sponsoring the San Mateo County Smart Corridor Project, an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) project that extends along El Camino Real and major local streets in San Mateo County connecting to US 101 and I-280. The project enables cities and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to proactively manage daily traffic and non-recurring traffic congestion caused by diverted traffic due to major incidents on the freeway.
The current phase of the Smart Corridor Project will extend north into Daly City, Brisbane and Colma. The project will include the deployment of an interconnected traffic signal system, closed circuit video cameras, trailblazer/arterial dynamic message signs and vehicle detection systems, along with the installation of fiber optic communication network. These ITS elements will allow Daly City and Caltrans to deploy incident response plans to manage traffic congestion on Junipero Serra Boulevard and Bayshore Boulevard, the two primary parallel corridors to I-280 and US 101, respectively.
C/CAG has secured funds for the project and will reimburse the City for costs incurred to manage the construction contract, provide inspection services, and staff time for project-related work. On January 8, 2024, the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute the Funding Agreement with C/CAG for the construction phase of the Smart Corridor Project.
Discussion
In January 2024, staff advertised a Request for Proposal (RFP) for construction management and inspection services for the Northern Cities Smart Corridor Expansion Project. Due to the technical requirements that necessitate more attention to be focused on the inspection of the project on a daily basis, the services of a construction management firm that specializes in ITS projects was required. The consultant construction management and inspection services are eligible for reimbursement from C/CAG as with the construction work.
On April 8, 2024, City Council awarded a contract to Zoon Engineering in the amount of $424,724.30 for construction management and inspection services. An amendment in the amount of
Amendment to the Professional Service Agreement for Construction Management and Inspection Services for the Northern Cities Smart Corridor Expansion Project Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
$170,000 was executed in September 2025 to provide additional construction support and inspection services through December 31, 2025.
The project completion date has been further extended due to additional changes and desire to have Zoon Engineering involved through system integration. Under proposed amendment number 2, in the amount of $125,730.95, Zoon Engineering will provide construction support and inspection services through the system integration and project completion estimated to be May 31, 2026.
Fiscal Impact
There is sufficient budget for this action in the approved FY 2023-24 Transportation Fund – Smart Corridor project account 21777000 to fully fund the amendment.
Summary/Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an amendment to the agreement for professional services with Zoon Engineering of Emeryville, California, to provide construction management and inspection services for the Northern Cities Smart Corridor Expansion Project in the amount of $125,730.95 for a total contract amount of $720,455.25.

RE: Construction Management Services – Additional Funds Request # 2 Construction Management Services for Northern Cities Smart Corridors Project
Dear Ms. Chan:
Zoon Engineering serves as the City’s Construction Management (CM) firm for the Northern Cities Smart Corridor Project. The original CM budget was developed based on completing construction within the 100 working days specified in Addendum 1 of the Request for Proposal. However, the construction contract was subsequently awarded with a duration of 210 working days.
Amendment 01 was issued in September 2025 in the amount of $170,000 to support the extended CM services through December 31, 2025.
Since then, the project completion date has been further extended due to various changes and long-lead items.
Therefore, Zoon Engineering is submitting Additional Funds Request No. 2 in the amount of $125,730.95 to extend CM services through May 31, 2026, allowing sufficient time to complete the remaining construction activities, including all identified changes, system integration, and project closeout.
Please don’t hesitate to call me if you have any questions and thank you again for your continued trust in Zoon Engineering.
Sincerely,

Subject: Notice of Completion for the Santa Barbara Ave. & Vista Grande Ave. Green Stormwater Infrastructure and Pedestrian Improvement Project
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the filing of the Notice of Completion and accept the improvements completed in compliance with the construction contract for the Santa Barbara Ave. & Vista Grande Ave. Green Stormwater Infrastructure and Pedestrian Improvement Project.
Background
On March 10, 2025, the City Council authorized the award of a construction contract to FJ&I Engineering Inc. of San Pablo, California, in the amount of $173,495.00 for the Santa Barbara Ave. & Vista Grande Ave. Green Stormwater Infrastructure and Pedestrian Improvement Project. The scope of work included the construction of new bio-retention planters within the sidewalk along the northeastern side of Santa Barbara Ave. and Vista Grande Ave. intersection for stormwater treatment, the construction of new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps for improved accessibility, and the installation of new traffic devices for enhanced pedestrian safety when traversing through the area, which includes students that attend the local Woodrow Wilson Elementary School.
The Santa Barbara Ave. & Vista Grande Ave. Green Stormwater Infrastructure and Pedestrian Improvement Project was partially funded by the North San Mateo County Sanitation District (NSMCSD) for the stormwater components of the project. The project was part of a Settlement Agreement and Stipulation for Entry of Administrative Civil Liability Order (Stipulated Order) between the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region Prosecution Team and North San Mateo County Sanitation District (NSMCSD). This Supplemental Environmental Project (SEP) was undertaken as part of a settlement for a Regional Water Board enforcement action against NSMCSD.
Discussion
FJ&I Engineering Inc. has completed all improvements required by the construction contract documents for a total amount of $173,595.00, including one change order in the amount of $100.00. The original award was for $173,495.00. The cost difference of 0.06% between the final and original contract award amounts was primarily due to final quantities.
Fiscal Impact
The contract was completed in the total amount of $173,595.00 with funds available in the Capital Improvement Project account 21781600.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____

Meeting Date: March 9, 2026
Subject: Authorize Interior Tank Remediation of Reservoir 6B
Recommended Action
Authorize staff to contract with Engineering Remediation Resources Group, Inc. (ERRG) to perform remediation of the interior of Reservoir 6B in the amount not to exceed $543,822.10, which includes a base contract amount of $472,888.79 and a 15% contingency.
Background
Reservoir 6B is a 1.5-million-gallon reservoir located at the end of Nelson Court in Daly City. As background, a severe windstorm significantly damaged the wood roofing and staff were required to place the reservoir out of service. Staff contracted the construction company DN Tanks to perform a condition assessment, design the repairs, and then install a new roof and complete seismic upgrades. This emergency work to the reservoir was authorized through City Council Resolution 23-149 and is near completion.
However, when the reservoir was out of service and during preparation for interior joint repairs, remediation of the joint sealants was identified. This was unanticipated work that staff did not know was needed until the reservoir was emptied of water and the interior was examined. This remediation work is a specialized process and requires technical consultation, a sampling plan, and specific design criteria (Attachment A).
Discussion
Staff sought proposals from two specialized remediation contractors for this work. A bid table was provided to each contractor for a cost estimate submittal. Each cost estimate was thoroughly reviewed by staff, and it was determined ERRG had the most responsive proposal, best plan for remediation and filtering plan for the water waste (Attachment B). EERG’s cost of $472,888.79 is below the engineer’s estimate of $670,000.
Fiscal Impact
This unanticipated additional work to Reservoir 6B was not forecasted. Staff is requesting to allocate the full amount from Water Fund 41 – Fund Balance to Water Capital Fund: Emergency Design & Repair Services Reservoir 6B 441-721-00-55108. Sufficient funds are available in capital reserves for this action.
Summary/Conclusion
Authorize staff to contract with Engineering Remediation Resources Group, Inc. (EERG) to perform remediation of the interior of Reservoir 6B in the amount not to exceed $543,822.10, which includes a base contract amount of $472,888.79 and a 15% contingency.
Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Mayor or Councilmembers.

It is intended to provide the City of Daly City with a planning level cost estimate for the remediation of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contaminated caulking and concrete; and application of a lining on the tank interior as proposed in the Final Risk-Based Cleanup and Disposal Application for the Removal of Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Sealant Materials and Concrete at Reservoir 6B (Application). EPA conditionally approved the Application on August 18, 2025.
Removal of PCB Contaminated Sealant and Concrete
Removal of PCB contaminated sealant and concreted will be conducted by an environmental/engineering contractor, in accordance with the cleanup plan included in the EPA approved Application. Removal details are summarized below:
1. Removal of all interior joint and crack sealants on the floor and wall of the tank. Sealants are described as a gray tank base (floor) sealant and a black tank wall sealant.
Estimates indicate approximately 834 lineal feet of the gray floor joint/crack sealant and 184 lineal feet of the black wall joint sealant. PCB concentrations in the gray tank base sealant were detected at 340,000 mg/kg. The black tank wall sealant PCB concentrations were detected at 140,000 mg/kg. All of this material will be considered PCB bulk product waste under TSCA and should be handled and disposed of as such.
2. Concrete samples collected adjacent to the joints and cracks in the floor of the tank have indicated that PCB contamination has migrated from the sealant into the concrete. PCBs in concrete have been detected up to 18,000 mg/kg up to 12 inches from the joints and cracks in the floor and at a depth of one inch. The approved cleanup plan includes removal of concrete within 18 inches of all floor joints, up to a maximum of one inch deep; with the caveat that structural features such as rebar and the water stop are not damaged (i.e. some areas of concrete may not be removed to a depth of one inch if rebar or the water stop are encountered). The total volume of concrete to be removed
Mr. Michael Patolo
August 25, 2025
REMEDY 111900 (MEMORANDUM_ENGINEERSESTIMATE_DALYCITY_AUG2025) and disposed of from the floor of the tank is estimated to be 210 cubic feet (or less than 10 cubic yards).
3. Concrete samples collected adjacent to the joints on the interior tank wall have indicated that PCB contamination has migrated from the sealant into the concrete. PCBs in the concrete of the wall have been detected as high as 713 mg/kg up to three inches from the joints and at 0.5 inches deep. The approved cleanup plan includes removal of concrete within 12 inches of all wall joints up to a maximum 0.5 inches deep; with the caveat that structural integrity of the tank is maintained. The total volume of concrete to be removed and disposed of from the wall of the tank is estimated to be 15 cubic feet (or less than one cubic yard).
4. Following removal of the concrete adjacent to the floor and wall cracks and joints, the remediation contractor will hydroblast the entire interior of the tank to create a surface profile suitable for application of the tank liner (completed by others). Waste material (water and concrete sludge) should also be containerized for disposal, possibly after filtering to separate water from the solids. Solids can be added to the PCB remediation waste stream (less than 50 mg/kg) and water will need to be sampled and profiled for disposal.
5. Under the TSCA regulations, in-situ sample concentrations must be used for purposes of determining proper disposal of PCB remediation waste. In-situ concentrations exceeding 50 mg/kg are required to be disposed of at a hazardous waste landfill or a TSCA waste landfill. In-situ PCB concentrations less than 50 mg/kg can be disposed of at municipal waste landfill. As such, it may be possible to divide the PCB remediation waste into two waste streams, with up to two cubic yards of material for disposal at a hazardous waste landfill and the remainder appropriate for a municipal landfill.
Lining the Tank Interior
Following removal of the PCB contaminated sealant and concrete, a liner will be applied to the interior of the tank by a tank retrofit contractor to create a barrier between the remaining concrete, which will still contain some PCBs, and the stored water, as discussed in the EPA approved Application. Details related to the application of the new liner include:
1. The retrofit contractor will repair the areas of the floor and wall where PCB contaminated concrete was removed and complete any other preparation work necessary for the application of the liner. Following concrete work, the tank should be pressure washed prior to initiation of lining activities. Water should be filtered with solids containerized separately from water.
2. The interior of the tank will be lined with a solvent-free epoxy (Sikagard 62) following protocols established by the manufacturer.
3. Following application of the liner, the tank should again be pressure washed with water containerized and sampled and profiled for disposal. This water can be combined with previous wash water, if preferred.
4. Eight wipe samples will be collected of the liner and analyzed for PCBs. At least 4 of the wipe sample locations should be targeted to the areas where the highest known PCB contamination was present in the concrete. Additional pressure washing will be required if PCB wipe sample results exceed the cleanup goal.

Daly City Reservoir 6B Remediation
Proposal and Technical Approach
Dear Mr. Patolo:
ERRG is pleased to present this technical approach and cost proposal for the Reservoir 6B Remediation.
Our proposal is based on the Request for Proposal received on 1/29/2026, the project specifications prepared by Remedy Engineering dates January 2026, and answers to questions received on 2/3/2026. Our approach for completing this work is described below.
Upon award, ERRG will prepare all required documents including Worker Training and Safety Program, Site Specific Health and Safety Plan, PCB Remediation Implementation Work Plan, Air/Dust Monitoring Plan, Waste Management and Disposal Plan, as well and all other relevant documents. These will be submitted to Daly City for review and approval. Following plan approval ERRG will mobilize to the site.
Mobilization will include bringing all materials, tools, and equipment required to perform the work including but not limited to personal protective equipment, confined space entry rescue gear, rolling scaffold, extended reach forklift, manlift, concrete scabblers, HEPA vacuums, pressure washers, hydro- blasters, and hand tools. ERRG will erect the rolling scaffold within the tank in order to facilitate work on the walls and lift and place all concrete removal equipment into the tank.
Work within the tank will begin with removal of bulk sealant using grinders and other hand tools. All power tools will be equipped with a HEPA vacuum to control dust containing PCBs and silica. Concrete removal will be follow the bulk caulking/sealant removal and will be performed with concrete scabblers with depth gauges to prevent excess concrete removal. Wall and floor concrete removal work will be conducted concurrently. Dust accumulated in the HEPA vacuums will be removed periodically and placed into drums for disposal. At each stage of removal, ERRG will coordinate inspections by the City of Daly City/DN Tanks to ensure approval of the completed work before proceeding to the next phase. Upon completion of the bulk removal ERRG will perform the tank surface preparation using two hydro-blasters.
Once again, floor and wall work will be conducted concurrently. A small test area will be prepared for review by the City of Daly City and DN Tanks. Pending approval of the test area, ERRG will complete the hydro-blasting/surface preparation on the tank interior. As water accumulates in the tank ERRG will pump this water into a weir tank on site to separate solids from the wastewater. This water will then be pumped through ERRG’s mobile treatment system and passed through two filter units with 10-micron and then 5- micron particle filters. This filtered water will be pumped into a frac tank and tested for disposal off site.
ERRG anticipates this will reduce the PCB and silica load in the water and reduce disposal costs. This water will be transported to an approved disposal facility. When all surface preparation is completed ERRG
February 13, 2026
P:\Daly City\40260017 Daly City Reservoir 6B\1_Response\Submittal\Daly City Tank 6B Technical Approach_clean.docx will conduct a final rinse of the interior of the tank using a combination of fire hose and pressure washers.
Any accumulated water/sediment will be pumped out as previously discussed. Any sediment not pumped will be manually removed using hand tools (shovels, brooms, and buckets).
ERRG will conduct a walk-through with the City of Daly City and DN Tank to review all completed work.
Following completion of any punch-list items ERRG will decontaminate the temporary storage tanks and equipment, transport and dispose of any remaining wastes, and demobilize from the site. ERRG will provide final documentation via email including daily reports, field photos, and waste disposal manifests upon completion.
Assumptions:
Water is available on site at no cost to ERRG.
Work hours will be between 7:00am and 5:00pm
Waste water from tank rinsing and hydro-blasting will not exceed 10,000 gallons Concrete removed will not exceed 225 cubic feet (in-place) All concrete and caulking will be disposed of as TSCA Haz Waste
ERRG’s proposed costs and schedule for the scope of work with the above clarifications are included in Attachments to this letter.
We appreciate the opportunity and look forward to working with you. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at [email protected] or 415-933-0264.
Sincerely,
Joe Corrick, CSP
Project Manager
