2 APPROVAL OF MINUTES:

The following provides a full transcript of item #6, Re: approval of the Regular Meeting of May 11, 2026 (source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afEcBKkWHGs from 1:48:00 – 2:10:33)

-------------------
Regular Meeting of May 11, 2026
Mayor Sylvester: I'm going to move on to the next item on the agenda, which is the approval of the minutes for May 11th, 2026.

Vice Mayor Proaño: Mayor, before…

Sylvester: Vice Mayor. Yes.

Proaño: Yes, sir. Before we … proceed with that, I had a quick question. … during our last meeting …when … Rose … spoke on … on … the items that we discussed with regards to Councilmember DiGiovanni, I looked at the minutes and something was missing…there was a couple comments that I was concerned that were not on the notes. And … if you recall, you mentioned I got concerned about it. That's why I'm bringing it up. You had mentioned that you were not given an opportunity to defend yourself. You said it twice and it wasn't in the minutes. And I thought, I thought that that would be important to have it in the minutes, right?

Councilmember DiGiovanni: Yeah. Thank you.

Proaño: But … the only conflict … yes...the only conflicting part would be because I thought it was important that would be there. But you had mentioned …. Rose that she did. So, I just wanted to make sure cuz I wouldn't want that to be an issue.

DiGiovanni: Point of clarification. So, the point of clarification is I didn't because I was under medical. So even though the you guys had set the date between that inter is when I went into cardiogenic I had the cardiogenic shock and things were I was in the that's why I sent that letter to the City Clerk to read out loud about my medical condition and that if I had there's no way I would I would have uh probably I'm not exaggerating I'm being hyperbolic. I would have… I would have died here. So, it was pretty serious.

Proaño: I understand. So, to say that I had but you said

DiGiovanni: When you get the opportunity but nobody foresaw my … the extreme of … of … really almost dying. Yeah. So, no, I just wanted, you know, so there was not a rescheduling or anything, but that's why the City Clerk read that letter and then that's the only thing I could get … to so that you guys would know that I wasn't just being … I don't want to be dismissive or disrespectful, but it was it was a serious health issue that it's valid. It's valid. It's not anything. Yeah. Well, I know you're not questioning that.

Proaño: No, I wasn't questioning that. I was just concerned because … Can I ask Rose just the process … because she did say I was concerned about her stating that she wasn't able to defend herself. So, does that mean as well that when there was all the me etings and the investigations and all that she wasn't given a chance? City Attorney …?

Zimmerman: No, but I think I can clarify…okay. So, at the last meeting … you want the minutes to reflect that there was discussion that she had in Councilmember DiGiovanni had indicated that she didn't have an opportunity

CITY OF DALY CITY
MINUTES – SPECIAL MEETING – CITY COUNCIL
MAY 26, 2026
3 Proaño: Twice

Zimmerman : …and within that discussion when asked … it was noted in the record that she was given the opportunity, but yes there was other issues with regards to her medical conditions but the record does reflect she was given the opportunity. There was a n opportunity to be interviewed, and she had rejected to be interviewed to be…. declined to be interviewed during the investigation as well as when … we had the notice for the hearing. So, you want the minutes to reflect that that was stated on the record?

Proaño: Correct. Okay. Yeah. I just think it's important that it be recorded but clarified..

Zimmerman: Okay. So, …to be clarified. So, would it be clearer …Madam City Clerk to have it verbatim as it pertains to that particular section, because I don't know exactly what was stated?

City Clerk Hipona: It could be verbatim but usually we don't do that in the minutes. We try to summarize what has been said so we can look back and add what you suggested … not given the opportunity to respond.

Proaño: No, she said it was she was twice she was not able to defend herself and so that was my concern.

DiGiovanni: Yeah. At the censure hearing, I was I was not able to defend myself because I was unable to be here and then yes. And then … but ..that's okay.

Zimmerman: That’s what was stated whether we're not talking about the substance here. What was stated is…

DiGiovanni: not the interview part or any of that…

Zimmerman: Okay… said what was not stated but it wasn't clear. We want the minutes to reflect that there was discussion that Councilmember DiGiovanni stated that she did not have an opportunity but what was actually stated at that meeting was that she was provided the opportunity because it was a noticed hearing.

The minutes reflect that irregardless of whether or not you believe that you didn't have the opportunity, but the minutes will reflect that the opportunity was provided because there was a noticed hearing.

DiGiovanni: for the interview, but not for the …

Zimmerman: for the interview and for the actual censure hearing

DiGiovanni: You get… Well, you were noticing me, but I could not medically be here.

Zimmerman : That's correct but there was a notice.

DiGiovanni: How can you defend yourself? I'm not going to get into it right now.

Sylvester: Here's what we're going to do. I'm listening to all sides here and I do know from the past that sometimes the City Clerk, and it's been known that we do not put everything verbatim into the minutes as to what's transpired. If that would happen, …, the minutes would be extremely long. However, the Vice Mayor brings up a point, and she just wants a clarification and documentation as to what transpired. So, I know we have the technology nowadays. I, you know, we can bring up the meeting on YouTube and capture the conversation just on this regard. …I guess Madam City Attorney's report and what was subsequently said during the meeting, and we can document that portion of it and adjust the minutes to include the information because what I'm hearing is t he Vice Mayor, you don't see … all the particulars as to what transpired in the meeting and you would like to see that. I think at your request that possibly could happen

CITY OF DALY CITY
MINUTES – SPECIAL MEETING – CITY COUNCIL
MAY 26, 2026
4 because we can go on and go on and and go back and forth and debate… I said this. No, I didn't say that.

No, this is what I meant. How about if we get verbatim as to what was said during the meeting?

Proaño: No, I that sounds good. I, like I said, I was just concerned. The statement concerned me because I wanted to make sure that everybody has a chance to defend themselves.

Sylvester : Hold on, Councilmember DiGiovanni. Councilmember Manalo.

Councilmember Manalo: …Thank you so much. I think Vice Mayor … you may have not been on Council yet..., but there was also opportunity for … I think defending the admonishment, right? And as far as also … being interviewed … in that regard. So is it …is this for the censorship but also the admonishment? Prior to the censorship, there was opportunity to be interviewed and then I think … Councilmember DiGiovanni did not get interviewed. Is that correct?

Zimmerman: That's correct. And that was actually stated in the minutes as also stated in the report that was that was part of the report.

Sylvester: Councilmember Manalo, thank you. Councilmember DiGiovanni, you have the floor.

DiGiovanni: Yeah, thank you very much. So, the then first I want to thank the Vice Mayor. She's right because when somebody is absent and they're unable to defend themselves and to be … and you're supposed to have an impartial hearing and some people have a past, they shouldn't be voting on me anyway. But the thing is I didn't even have a chance to do that, and it happened, and I was unable to be here and is it was documented that it is medical and it happened in my absence which I was a little um taken back this that if you're not absence … if you're absent how can you defend yourself? That's my… that's my point. But anyway, so it happened and

Sylvester: Thank you, Councilmember DiGiovanni. And we'll go around again and Councilmember DiGiovanni, you had the floor. I'm going to go back around and ask if there's any further rebuttal or response.

Proano: Well, I just would go with… and I appreciate that, because I was worried about hearing not someone not being able to defend themselves. I just want to just clarify one thing. Would it have made a difference if she'd have come to the ad the.. the c ensureship part of that, you know, that meeting? Uh meaning my biggest concern because I only heard there was only she only stated part of it was it sounded like she couldn't defend herself during … the two issues the 2020. Was it 20 …what's the first time?

Zimmerman: The first one was the admonishment, which Councilmember DiGiovanni was present at that meeting.

Proaño: She was there yes okay. And then the second time?

Zimmerman: The second time was the actual resolution of censure, which was the public noticed hearing.

Proaño: So, it wouldn't have made a difference at that point. Would it?

Zimmerman: Well, she was noticed and her position is that she could not attend. We did proceed with the noticed hearing that was public and that opportunity to provide any kind of information at that hearing whether in person or in writing is always there because this is a public meeting. … However, I want to just kind of bring it back down to the minutes because this is really about … what was reported in those minutes and my understanding is there's a concern from the Vice Mayor that we don't have the full verbatim or the

CITY OF DALY CITY
MINUTES – SPECIAL MEETING – CITY COUNCIL
MAY 26, 2026
5 full … report as it was discussed. So, I would suggest as the City Clerk has indicated, there it is not practice to have full meetings but in situations like this, we can review the transcript, transcribe it, and actually have verbatim minutes for this particular item, and because we don't have that today, come back to the Council for you to review, and then approve the minutes at that time. Would that be appropriate?

Proaño: Yeah, I appreciate the clarification, and I appreciate making sure everything's where it should be.

Okay. Thank you.

Sylvester: All right. Thank you, Vice Mayor. Moving down the line, Councilmember Manalo.

Manalo: Thank you, um, Mayor. I think in that respect with the request of Vice Mayor Proano to have .. for this instance … verbatim and I know it's not usually the case for the City Clerk, but I think for clarification reasons …that she has requested, I'd be … in favor of it. Thank you.

Sylvester: Thank you Councilmember Manalo. And last final comment Councilmember DiGiovanni.

DiGiovanni: Okay. Thank you and thank you for that. And then be for the point of the history for … our Vice Mayor, she did not know that it was it was pretty well known that it was a politically motivated at that time of the prior and that … I was it went to court I was exonerated. So, just to let you know that on a on a part of it and the person really shouldn't have voted on me for anything, because you're supposed to have an impartial hearing. Impartial hearing. Impartial.

Manalo: Point of clarification. … I was talking about the admonishment, which there was actually a report.

Can you say how many pages that was, City Attorney? The admonishment. I'm being very clear about it, was issues around staff … use of the vehicle. I …Can you kindly share that there was a report for the admonishment and how many pages it was?

Zimmerman : Yes …there was an independent investigation as it pertained to that report. ..There was over 200 pages is what I can remember. It was publicly noticed.

DiGiovanni: Yeah. And I deserved an impartial hearing.

Sylvester: All right. Thank you. Wait… Vice Mayor. Vice Mayor, I'm trying to keep this in order now and give everybody a chance to speak. We had gotten to the point where I was giving … Councilmember DiGiovanni the last comment, but additional comments came up. So, I'm going to … let you have your say.

Dr. Rod, you've been pretty quiet. Did you want to say anything in this matter at before I move down?

Councilmember Daus-Magbual: I think it's … I would have to abstain since I wasn't at the last meeting.

Sylvester: Oh, okay. All right. Thank you very much. Vice Mayor…

Proaño: Thank you, Mayor. I just wanted … to say perhaps … so we don't take any much longer… It just some of the … I'm sorry, just the clarification … is that there were two issues. The first time I wasn't on Council, there was an investigation, a full investigation, and that concluded, and then there was an admonishment, and then there was a second one, and that's when she was sick. But the investigations all happened impartial, right? It wasn't …we didn't do it, or Council didn't do it. There was an investigative

group. There was, I'm guessing, Can you…

Zimmerman: That's correct. There was an independent investigation for both of the separate

CITY OF DALY CITY
MINUTES – SPECIAL MEETING – CITY COUNCIL
MAY 26, 2026
6 Proaño: Yeah. Separate. Yes. Okay. That's all. I just want to make sure because what I was hearing, we didn't do it in case anyone's listening. We … when I was here, we didn't do it. It was an independent investigator.

Zimmerman: That's correct.

DiGiovanni: Okay. through the Mayor.

Sylvester: Councilmember Manalo, anything before we move to Councilmember DiGiovanni for the last … comment. Thank you.

Manalo: Thank you, Mayor. … I just wanted to … reference the admonishment because that was the first … situation where there was an investigation. I was not referring to the time that I got assaulted in this building okay. I was not referring to that time. I was referring to the admonishment piece, where there was an outside investigation regarding … use of vehicle um just abrasive behavior… Just to be very clear to those watching, all we had asked is for some very workplace …anger management. Can you please state what we were asking for the admonishment, so the public can know?

Zimmerman: Sure. The

DiGiovanni: going to rehash

Zimmerman: resolution of admonishment included to have … and this was actually … it was an admonishment. So, it was to have anger management …training, workplace harassment training, to have those set up and to have …an apology as well as to be recommended.

Manalo: Thank you.

Sylvester: All right, Councilmember DiGiovanni.

DiGiovanni: Yeah, there's probably like you said where we have to stick to the minutes part from the last time, but when somebody is told they're supposed to have an impartial hearing in the vote, we know from even the last time it was politically motivate d. So, I want people to have that on the record and that from the person that even brought it up that was here on the Council that time had was gunning for me from the very beginning had even said I'll never be on the agenda. I'll never be Mayor. So, I'm just going to put that on the record, and we'll go from there.

Sylvester: Thank you. Dr. Rod, before I make the final comment…

DiGiovanni: and then because

Sylvester: … Councilmember DiGiovanni, I just released the mic from you.

DiGiovanni: Yeah. No, that's fine.

Sylvester: Thank you. Dr. Rod, anything?

Daus-Magbual: … I think there's… a precedence that our … Council have … created. It's unfortunate … you know with your health issues … but being on this dais is responsibility. It represents honor. It represents … a sense of accountability and

CITY OF DALY CITY
MINUTES – SPECIAL MEETING – CITY COUNCIL
MAY 26, 2026
7 DiGiovanni: That's right

Daus-Magbuual :… you already set out … some groundwork for things that need to be addressed and … Councilmember DiGiovanni, hopefully … there's a sense of humility and a sense of accountability to meet the expectations that we as a Council have put out.

Sylvester: Thank you, Dr. Rod. All right…listening and .. I take high regard to … the legal aspects and the advice of our City Attorney. What precipitated this conversation was, and … City Attorney, please correct me if .. if I'm wrong, was at the request of the Vice Mayor that the … the meeting minutes to which we are in … attempting to approve at this time did not contain verbatim information as to the discussion pertaining to the issue of Councilmember DiGiovanni, whether it's the history, whether it is the past investigations, and obtaining further clarification as the Vice Mayor has requested, in addition to … additional events that occurred, that has been mentioned, whether it's regarding assault that I feel we do not know until we get the verbatim of the minutes as requested from the last meeting. Then once we get the verbatim information, then we can go into further details such as the clarification and the independent investigation and all other aspects. But as I said earlier, we can continue to have this discussion, but we're going to go round and round and round. We need to get the verbatim discussion that transpired at the last meeting. So, that's where I'm going to leave it there. Madam City Attorney, was that pretty much on the right end?

Zimmerman: That's accurate. Yes. Yeah. It sounds like just for clarification that the request from … as indicated by the Vice Mayor is … to have more complete minutes, which are more the verbatim minutes or transcription before they can vote on the … approval of the official record of the minutes.

Sylvester: Very good. Thank you very…

Hipona: If I may, does that include verbatim what the City Attorney said or verbatim, and or verbatim what Councilmember DiGiovanni and other members of the City Council?

Proano: Since I'm the one requesting it, thank you so much …City Clerk, I'd like to see it… from what… because it's all connected, from what our City Attorney started talking about it to the completion, so that it's all included. Thank you and I appreciate that clarification.

Zimmerman: and clarification it is with regards to the status in regards to the implementation of the Resolution of Censure, because it's under Committee Report, so there was other committee reports but it would be significant to this.

Sylvester: All right great so the motion on the…

Zimmerman:… just continue it to the next meeting.

Sylvester: Okay as per City Attorney, this matter for approval of the minutes will be continued to the next meeting and it's at that time we can approve the minutes of today… I mean … approve the minutes of the previous meeting which would be … was it May 14th? May 11th, yes May 11 thank you so much all right thank you. All right, the next item on the agenda is item number seven.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____

Meeting Date: June 22, 2026
Subject: Approval of a Memorandum of Understanding Between the City of Daly City and The Olympic Club Regarding Proposed Improvements and Shared Use of Westlake Field
Recommended Action
Approve the Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") between the City of Daly City and The Olympic Club regarding proposed improvements and shared use of Westlake Field and authorize the City Manager to execute the MOU in substantially the form presented to the City Council.

Background

Westlake Field is an integral recreational facility serving Daly City residents, schools, youth sports organizations, and community groups. The City has explored opportunities to improve and modernize the facility while maintaining public ownership and preserving recreational access for the community.

In 2025, the City entered into an Exclusive Negotiation Agreement (“ENA”) with The Olympic Club to evaluate a potential public-private partnership involving improvements to Westlake Field and related recreational facilities. The ENA established a framework for evaluating facility improvements, public access, maintenance responsibilities, community benefits, and long-term operation of the site.

Following completion of the ENA process, City staff and representatives of The Olympic Club negotiated the attached Memorandum of Understanding, which establishes the principal business terms and framework for the proposed partnership.

Representatives of The Olympic Club will be present at the meeting to provide an overview of the proposed Project and answer questions from the City Council.

Discussion

Project Overview
The proposed project contemplates substantial private investment in Westlake Field and related recreational facilities. Improvements currently under consideration include installation of a synthetic turf field, renovation of tennis courts, construction of pickleball courts, upgraded lighting, landscaping improvements, spectator seating improvements, accessibility upgrades, scoreboards, controlled-access improvements, greenhouse relocation, and construction of a Club support building.

The Olympic Club would be responsible for funding project planning, environmental review, design, permitting, construction, maintenance, and future capital replacement obligations, subject to the terms of a future Use and Improvement Agreement.

City Council Agenda Report

Subject: Approval of a Memorandum of Understanding Between the City of Daly City and The Olympic Club Regarding Proposed Improvements and Shared Use of Westlake Field Meeting Date: June 22, 2026

The anticipated investment is expected to exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10 million) and would be funded by The Olympic Club.

Memorandum of Understanding

The attached MOU establishes the framework for the proposed partnership and identifies the principal business terms negotiated through the ENA process. The MOU addresses project objectives, proposed improvements, public ownership, public access, community benefits, maintenance responsibilities, environmental review, and preparation of a future Use and Improvement Agreement.

The MOU is intended to serve as a framework document and does not authorize construction, approve environmental review, grant development rights, or establish long-term occupancy rights. Those matters will be addressed through future environmental review and a comprehensive Use and Improvement Agreement that will return to the City Council for consideration and approval.

If the MOU is approved, staff will continue working with The Olympic Club to prepare a detailed Use and Improvement Agreement governing construction, operation, maintenance, scheduling, public access, capital replacement obligations, insurance, indemnification, ownership of improvements, and other operational matters.

The proposed Memorandum of Understanding represents the completion of the ENA process and establishes a framework for continued evaluation of a public-private partnership that has the potential to provide substantial recreational improvements and community benefits while preserving public ownership and public access.

The Use and Improvement Agreement will be presented to the City Council following completion of environmental review and final negotiations.

Fiscal Impact
Approval of the Memorandum of Understanding does not create a direct fiscal impact or financial obligation for the City at this stage.

The proposed Project Improvements are anticipated to be funded by The Olympic Club. Any future financial obligations, maintenance responsibilities, use fees, utility reimbursements, or other fiscal considerations will be presented to the City Council as part of the future Use and Improvement Agreement.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____
Al
Meeting Date: June 22, 2026

Subject: Set Time and Place of Public Hearing – Approval to Execute Agreement with Axon for Unmanned Aerial Systems

Recommended Action
Staff recommends Council set the time, July 13, 2026, at 7:00 pm, and City Council Chambers as place, for a public hearing to approve the purchase of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) for indoor use from Axon for the police department.

Background
In 2023, Council approved our department’s use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). In June 2025, Council approved our department’s expansion of UAS’s to include a Drone First Responder (DFR) Program and indoor UAS’s for tactical operations. UAS’s are listed in AB 481 – Military Equipment Use (Daly City Municipal Code 9.56), and as such require Council approval for acquisition and use of in a law enforcement capacity.

Discussion
The police department has an effective UAS program, providing significant benefits towards community and officer safety. Our current indoor UAS solution, while effective, requires the operator to be in close proximity, making it best suited for planned operations. It is not capable of remote operation by our Real Time Intelligence Center (RTIC), reducing availability for use.

Our DFR supplier, Skydio, recently introduced an indoor UAS capable of remote operation from within our RTIC. This remote-piloting capability expands operational use for daily calls for service encountered by patrol that would benefit from the use of an indoor UAS. This resource can potentially reduce the need for officers to enter uncleared structures, improving safe outcomes.

UAS technology continues to enhance situational awareness and support community safety across the city through improved response times, de-escalation and force multiplication.

Summary/Conclusions
Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Mayor or Councilmembers.

Respectfully submitted,

Cameron Christensen
Chief of Police

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____

Meeting Date: June 22, 2026

Subject: Zone Change ZC-04-26-17042 – Amendments to Zoning Ordinance Repealing Existing Accessory Dwelling Unit Regulations

Recommended Action

Approve Zone Change ZC-04-26-17042, amending the City’s Zoning Ordinance to repeal the existing accessory dwelling unit (ADU) regulations and to retain and relocate certain requirements pertaining to ADUs to other sections within the Zoning Ordinance.

Planning Commission Discussion

On May 5, 2026, the Planning Commission voted 4-0 (Commissioner Paniza absent) to recommend approval of the proposed changes to the City Council. Commissioner Faapuaa suggested that the City build physical models of ADUs and display them at City Hall, and that she supported aligning the City’s regulations with those of the State. Staff communicated that the City provided model ADUs that could be constructed on the City website. Commissioner Satorre asked if the staff was familiar with AB130, which was a permit streamlining provision that could be associated with the proposed amendments. Commissioner Nurris stated that he supported the zoning text changes.

Background

Historically referred to as “second units” in Daly City, Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) have become an innovative and effective option for homeowners and residential property owners adding an additional dwelling to their property. Since the inception of State mandates for cities to allow second units in early 1980s, the Planning Division estimates the City has permitted over 2,200 ADUs and continues to permit approximately 30 to 50 new ADUs and JADU’s per year.

In California, the primary difference between an ADU and JADU is that the JADU is smaller (maximum 500 square feet), created within an existing home's footprint, and may share a bathroom with the main house. Alternatively, an ADU can be detached, is larger (often up to 1,200 square feet), and must be a fully self-contained unit. While traditionally most ADUs in Daly City have occupied the unfinished basement of homes, several homeowners have taken advantage of State laws allowing detached ADUs in their backyards. If these ADUs meet size and height maximums, and provide four-foot side and rear yards established by State law, they are not subject to the normal 50-55 percent maximum lot coverage normally permissible on single-family lots (see Attachment A – City of Daly City ADU Handout).

To increase housing supply, beginning in 2016, the State legislature passed significant reforms that eased the regulation of ADUs and shifted control from local jurisdictions like the City of Daly City to state regulations. Key changes included mandatory ministerial approval, 60-day review timelines, removal of parking requirements near transit, elimination of owner-occupancy mandates, and increased building allowances for both single-family and multifamily lots. In 2020, the Planning Division determined that all residential lots were “transit proximate” and began to conform the City’s regulation of ADUs and JADUs to State law.

City Council Staff Report
Zone Change ZC-04-26-17042 – Page 2 of 4
Amendments to Zoning Ordinance Repealing Existing Accessory Dwelling Unit Regulations June 22, 2026

Discussion

Over the years, and continuing every year, the State has added new legal parameters for allowing ADUs and JADU’s, most recently clarifying legislation (AB 1154) that the owner-occupancy allowance only applies if the JADU shares sanitation facilities, such as a bathroom, with the main house. Below is summary of the numerous changes enacted by the State legislature since 2020:

▪ 15-Day Rule (SB 543 - 2026): Local agencies must issue a completeness determination within 15 days; failure to do so deems the application approved. It also clarifies that maximum size limits refer to interior livable space, excluding exterior walls and stairs.

▪ Fire-Affected Homes (AB 462 - 2026): Allows certificates of occupancy for detached ADUs to be issued before the main house is rebuilt in fire-affected counties.

▪ Rental Rights (AB 976 - 2025): Permanently bans local agencies from requiring property owners to live on-site in either the primary dwelling or the ADU.

▪ JADU Expansion (AB 1154 - 2026): Allows for 3-unit rentals on a single-family lot (primary house, JADU, and detached ADU) without owner occupancy.

▪ Pre-approval Requirement (AB 1332 - 2025): Requires cities to create programs for pre- approved ADU plans to expedite construction.

▪ Reduced Fees & Timelines (AB 68/AB 881 - 2020): Drastically cut down on the time local governments had to approve applications (down to 60 days) and eliminated maximum size restrictions for detached ADUs, limiting local impact fees.

▪ Substandard ADUs (AB 2533 - 2025): Provided a path to legalizing existing, unpermitted ADUs without excessive penalties.

▪ Multi-family ADUs (AB 1211 - 2025): Expanded the number of detached ADUs for multi- family properties to 1 per unit, allowing more flexibility in creating density.

All the State’s requirements for ADUs and JADUs are outlined in the California Government Code Sections 66310–66342, which the Planning Division now enforces instead of the second unit regulations in the Zoning Ordinance (see Attachment B – State Law Pertaining to ADUs and JADUs).

The City is authorized to do so by State “preemption,” meaning that State law, which supersedes City law, has specifically set aside (made illegal) any of the City’s regulations that contradict State law.

Because of the number of annual amendments, the City has just relied upon State law over the years instead of adopting Zoning Ordinance regulations that mimic State law.

When the Planning Division was preparing the Housing Element in 2023, Division staff and the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) staff agreed this was the most efficient approach if the City did not have significant modifications that it would like HCD to review. It is therefore necessary that the City repeal its existing “second unit” regulations, the definitions of what constitutes an accessory dwelling unit, and the requirements pertaining to Certificates of Registration, which are no longer a requirement because owner occupancy is no longer required. In review of the regulations proposed for repeal, staff has recognized that it is necessary to retain the following requirements, which would be relocated to other sections within the Zoning Ordinance.

City Council Staff Report
Zone Change ZC-04-26-17042 – Page 3 of 4
Amendments to Zoning Ordinance Repealing Existing Accessory Dwelling Unit Regulations June 22, 2026

▪ Entrance to an accessory dwelling unit and junior accessory dwelling unit shall be provided at the dwelling unit's rear elevation or at the side elevation providing the main entrance to the dwelling, unless such a requirement would result in trespassing onto adjacent property.

Where the pedestrian entrance to the unit is provided at the rear, a paved walkway shall be provided leading from the sidewalk or driveway to the pedestrian entrance, if one does not already exist. Pedestrian entrances to any accessory dwelling unit or junior accessory dwelling unit allowed at a garage door shall be perpendicular to the street.

▪ For garages converted to any other use in any home with side yards, including for the purpose of constructing an accessory dwelling unit or junior accessory dwelling unit, the garage door shall be retained and an area provided sufficient to accommodate trash and recycle bins at least 36 inches deep and the full width of the garage door.

A complete outline of the proposed changes is attached to the City Council staff report (see Attachment C – Proposed Zoning Ordinance Revisions). Staff is currently coordinating the above revisions with HCD. Should HCD disapprove of the above changes, they will be removed from the draft ordinance prior to the second reading of the ordinance by the City Council.

Environmental Assessment

The proposed rezoning are exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section of 15061 - Review for Exemption. The proposed rezoning do not have the potential to cause significant effects on the environment and it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the regulations would have a significant effect on the environment.

Recommendations

Based on the findings enumerated above, staff recommends that the City Council take the following action:

1. Adopt the Findings as outlined herein;

2. Find that the proposed rezonings are exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section of 15061 - Review for Exemption; and

3. Approve Zone Change ZC-04-26-17042, Amending Chapter 17.04 – Definitions, Chapter

17.35.040 – General Property Development Requirements, and Chapter 17.40.090 – Review of modifications to residential floorplans; and repealing Chapter 17.40.100 – Secondary Unit Standards and Requirements and 17.40.110 – Certificate of Registration Requirements.

Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Council members.

TITLE 7. PLANNING AND LAND USE [65000 - 66499.58] ( Heading of Title 7 amended by Stats. 1974, Ch. 1536. ) DIVISION 1. PLANNING AND ZONING [65000 - 66342] ( Heading of Division 1 added by Stats. 1974, Ch. 1536. ) CHAPTER 13. Accessory Dwelling Units [66310 - 66342] ( Chapter 13 added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. ) ARTICLE 1. General Provisions [66310 - 66313] ( Article 1 added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. ) The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Accessory dwelling units are a valuable form of housing in California. (b) Accessory dwelling units provide housing for family members, students, the elderly, in-home health care providers, the disabled, and others, at below market prices within existing neighborhoods. (c) Homeowners who create accessory dwelling units benefit from added income, and an increased sense of security.
(d) Allowing accessory dwelling units in single-family or multifamily residential zones provides additional rental housing stock in California.
(e) California faces a severe housing crisis.
(f) The state is falling far short of meeting current and future housing demand with serious consequences for the state’s economy, our ability to build green infill consistent with state greenhouse gas reduction goals, and the well- being of our citizens, particularly lower and middle-income earners. (g) Accessory dwelling units offer lower cost housing to meet the needs of existing and future residents within existing neighborhoods, while respecting architectural character. (h) Accessory dwelling units are, therefore, an essential component of California’s housing supply. (Added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. (SB 477) Effective March 25, 2024.) It is the intent of the Legislature that an accessory dwelling unit ordinance adopted by a local agency has the effect of providing for the creation of accessory dwelling units and that provisions in this ordinance relating to matters including unit size, parking, fees, and other requirements, are not so arbitrary, excessive, or burdensome so as to unreasonably restrict the ability of homeowners to create accessory dwelling units in zones in which they are authorized by local ordinance.
(Added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. (SB 477) Effective March 25, 2024.) Notwithstanding Section 65803, this chapter shall also apply to a charter city. (Added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. (SB 477) Effective March 25, 2024.) For purposes of this chapter:
(a) “Accessory dwelling unit” means an attached or a detached residential dwelling unit that provides complete independent living facilities for one or more persons and is located on a lot with a proposed or existing primary residence. It shall include permanent provisions for living, sleeping, eating, cooking, and sanitation on the same parcel as the single-family or multifamily dwelling is or will be situated. An accessory dwelling unit also includes the following:
(1) An efficiency unit.
(2) A manufactured home, as defined in Section 18007 of the Health and Safety Code.

(b) “Accessory structure” means a structure that is accessory and incidental to a dwelling located on the same lot. (c) “Efficiency unit” has the same meaning as defined in Section 17958.1 of the Health and Safety Code. (d) “Junior accessory dwelling unit” means a unit that is no more than 500 square feet in size and contained entirely within a single-family residence. A junior accessory dwelling unit may include separate sanitation facilities, or may share sanitation facilities with the existing structure. (e) “Living area” means the interior habitable area of a dwelling unit, including basements and attics, but does not include a garage or any accessory structure.
(f) “Local agency” means a city, county, or city and county, whether general law or chartered. (g) “Nonconforming zoning condition” means a physical improvement on a property that does not conform to current zoning standards.
(h) “Objective standards” means standards that involve no personal or subjective judgment by a public official and are uniformly verifiable by reference to an external and uniform benchmark or criterion available and knowable by both the development applicant or proponent and the public official prior to submittal. (i) “Passageway” means a pathway that is unobstructed clear to the sky and extends from a street to one entrance of the accessory dwelling unit.
(j) “Permitting agency” means any entity that is involved in the review of a permit for an accessory dwelling unit or junior accessory dwelling unit and for which there is no substitute, including, but not limited to, applicable planning departments, building departments, utilities, and special districts. (k) “Proposed dwelling” means a dwelling that is the subject of a permit application and that meets the requirements for permitting.
(l) “Public transit” means a location, including, but not limited to, a bus stop or train station, where the public may access buses, trains, subways, and other forms of transportation that charge set fares, run on fixed routes, and are available to the public.
(m) “Tandem parking” means that two or more automobiles are parked on a driveway or in any other location on a lot, lined up behind one another.

PLANNING AND ZONING [65000 - 66342] ( Heading of Division 1 added by Stats. 1974, Ch. 1536. ) CHAPTER 13. Accessory Dwelling Units [66310 - 66342] ( Chapter 13 added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. ) ARTICLE 2. Accessory Dwelling Unit Approvals [66314 - 66332] ( Article 2 added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. ) A local agency may, by ordinance, provide for the creation of accessory dwelling units in areas zoned to allow single-family or multifamily dwelling residential use. The ordinance shall do all of the following:
(a) Designate areas within the jurisdiction of the local agency where accessory dwelling units may be permitted.

The designation of areas may be based on the adequacy of water and sewer services and the impact of accessory dwelling units on traffic flow and public safety. A local agency that does not provide water or sewer services shall consult with the local water or sewer service provider regarding the adequacy of water and sewer services before designating an area where accessory dwelling units may be permitted. (b) (1) Impose objective standards on accessory dwelling units that include, but are not limited to, parking, height, setback, landscape, architectural review, maximum size of a unit, and standards that prevent adverse impacts on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historical Resources. These standards shall not include requirements on minimum lot size.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), a local agency may reduce or eliminate parking requirements for any accessory dwelling unit located within its jurisdiction. (c) Provide that accessory dwelling units do not exceed the allowable density for the lot upon which the accessory dwelling unit is located, and that accessory dwelling units are a residential use that is consistent with the existing general plan and zoning designation for the lot.
(d) Require the accessory dwelling units to comply with all of the following:
(1) Except as provided in Article 4 (commencing with Section 66340), the accessory dwelling unit may be rented separate from the primary residence, but shall not be sold or otherwise conveyed separate from the primary residence.
(2) The lot is zoned to allow single-family or multifamily dwelling residential use and includes a proposed or existing dwelling.
(3) The accessory dwelling unit is either attached to, or located within, the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure or detached from the proposed or existing primary dwelling and located on the same lot as the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including detached garages.
(4) If there is an existing primary dwelling, the total floor area of an attached accessory dwelling unit shall not exceed 50 percent of the existing primary dwelling.
(5) The total floor area for a detached accessory dwelling unit shall not exceed 1,200 square feet. (6) No passageway shall be required in conjunction with the construction of an accessory dwelling unit. (7) No setback shall be required for an existing living area or accessory structure or a structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure that is converted to an accessory dwelling Home Bill Information California Law Publications Other Resources My Subscriptions My Favorites 6/9/24, 1:44 PM Codes Display Text

unit or to a portion of an accessory dwelling unit, and a setback of no more than four feet from the side and rear lot lines shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit that is not converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure. (8) Local building code requirements that apply to detached dwellings, except that the construction of an accessory dwelling unit shall not constitute a Group R occupancy change under the local building code, as described in Section 310 of the California Building Code (Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations), unless the building official or enforcement agency of the local agency makes a written finding based on substantial evidence in the record that the construction of the accessory dwelling unit could have a specific, adverse impact on public health and safety. Nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted to prevent a local agency from changing the occupancy code of a space that was unhabitable space or was only permitted for nonresidential use and was subsequently converted for residential use pursuant to this article. (9) Approval by the local health officer where a private sewage disposal system is being used, if required. (10) (A) Parking requirements for accessory dwelling units shall not exceed one parking space per accessory dwelling unit or per bedroom, whichever is less. These spaces may be provided as tandem parking on a driveway. (B) Off street parking shall be permitted in setback areas in locations determined by the local agency or through tandem parking, unless specific findings are made that parking in setback areas or tandem parking is not feasible based upon specific site or regional topographical or fire and life safety conditions. (C) This subparagraph shall not apply to an accessory dwelling unit that is described in Section 66322. (11) When a garage, carport, or covered parking structure is demolished in conjunction with the construction of an accessory dwelling unit or converted to an accessory dwelling unit, the local agency shall not require that those offstreet parking spaces be replaced.
(12) Accessory dwelling units shall not be required to provide fire sprinklers if they are not required for the primary residence. The construction of an accessory dwelling unit shall not trigger a requirement for fire sprinklers to be installed in the existing primary dwelling.
(e) Require that a demolition permit for a detached garage that is to be replaced with an accessory dwelling unit be reviewed with the application for the accessory dwelling unit and issued at the same time. (f) An accessory dwelling unit ordinance shall not require, and the applicant shall not be otherwise required, to provide written notice or post a placard for the demolition of a detached garage that is to be replaced with an accessory dwelling unit, unless the property is located within an architecturally and historically significant historic district.
(Added by Stats. 2024, Ch. 7, Sec. 20. (SB 477) Effective March 25, 2024.) Section 66314 establishes the maximum standards that a local agency shall use to evaluate a proposed accessory dwelling unit on a lot that includes a proposed or existing single-family dwelling. No additional standards, other than those provided in Section 66314, shall be used or imposed, including an owner-occupant requirement, except that a local agency may require that the property may be used for rentals of terms 30 days or longer.

City Council Meeting Agenda Report Item # _____

Meeting Date: June 22, 2026

Subject: Adopt Resolution Approving Increases and Updates to the Parking Violation Fine Schedule

Recommended Action
Staff recommends that City Council adopt a resolution approving the proposed increases and updates to the Parking Violation Fine Schedule utilized by the police department.

Background
General parking violation fines were last adjusted in 2019. In 2023, one parking fine was added, and three parking fines related to commercial vehicles were adjusted. Parking continues to be one of the primary quality of life concerns within the city.

Discussion
City staff did a comprehensive review of parking violation fines, carefully considering the impacts of proposed increases on the community. Parking violation fines are intended to encourage adherence to law and are not specific towards administrative cost recovery. We evaluated quality of life parking issues throughout the city, unique parking challenges given our density, and current comparable fines for cities in San Mateo and San Francisco Counties.

Staff recommends the new Parking Violation Fine Schedule take effect on July 1, 2026. Future parking violation fine increases will be independently evaluated and brought to Council with the Master Fee Schedule, ensuring future increases are more moderately raised over time.

Fiscal Impact
The Daly City Police Department generated approximately $2.4 million in revenue from parking citations in Fiscal Year 2025. The proposed increases to the Parking Violation Fine Schedule are expected to generate an approximate $600,000 in additional revenue per fiscal year.

Summary/Conclusion
Staff recommends that City Council adopt a resolution approving the proposed increases to the Parking Violation Fine Schedule, listed in Attachment A and Attachment B, effective July 1, 2026.

Staff is available to provide any additional information desired by the Mayor or Councilmembers.

City Council Agenda Report Item # _____

Meeting Date: June 22, 2026

Subject: Award of Construction Contract for the Westlake Slurry Seal Project

Recommended Action

Staff recommends that the City Council:

1. Approve the design documents for the Westlake Slurry Seal Project;

2. Affirm the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) determination of Categorical Exemption;

3. Accept all responsive bids and award a construction contract to Graham Contractors, Inc. of San Jose, California, in the amount of $2,341,427.51; and

4. Authorize the City Manager to execute all necessary contracts to complete the project.

Background

Since 1998, Daly City Public Works has undertaken a comprehensive street pavement preventative maintenance program. The “cornerstone” of this program is an annual Street Slurry Seal Project as the single most cost-effective means to preserve a pavement’s condition and thereby reduce long term pavement operations and maintenance cost. Street slurry sealing replaces fine aggregate stripped from the pavement surface, reduces water penetration in the roadway base and thereby reduces base failures and the resultant damage that is more costly to repair. Streets selected to be surface sealed are based on several factors including the City’s Seven-Year Master Plan, the City’s computer-based pavement management system recommendations, visual observation of the streets by Public Works staff and other upcoming or associated work such as utility repairs and bike lane installations.

The construction bid documents include slurry sealing approximately 13.9 miles of City streets in the Westlake area. See attached location map. The purpose of the Westlake Slurry Seal Project is to slurry seal City streets in the Westlake area to extend the useful life of the pavement and install traffic striping and pavement markings.

Discussion

The construction bid documents were prepared in-house by the Engineering Staff with the help of Engineering interns. The project was advertised on May 10, 2026, and three (3) bids were received on June 2, 2026 with total bids ranging from $2,341,427.51 to $2,716,106.95. The bids and the Engineer’s Estimate are summarized as follows:

3. Pavement Coatings Co. $2,716,106.95 Responsive
Bid
Engineer’s Estimate $2,920,176.86

Graham Contractors, Inc. of San Jose, California, has been in business since 1976. This bidder holds the required Class A contractor’s license, which is current and in good standing. The contractor’s references for work performed for other public agencies are acceptable including the City of San Jose, County of Santa Clara, and City of Sunnyvale. The contractor successfully completed the City of San Jose 2024 and 2025 Major Streets Sealing, County of Santa Clara 2024 Micro Surfacing of County Roads, and City of Sunnyvale Slurry Seal 2024 projects.

The low bid for this project is 19.8% lower than the Engineer’s estimated cost which is based on unit prices received from last year’s slurry seal project.

If the Westlake Slurry Seal Project is awarded as recommended, construction is anticipated to commence in July 2026 and be completed in January 2027.

The full set of plans and specifications are available at the City Clerk’s office for review. Striping changes are included in the design to incorporate Vision Zero strategies on the City’s High Injury Network within the project area. These changes include adjusting the location of limit line to behind curb ramps, adjusting lane lines for better alignment, and installing high-visibility crosswalks.

Fiscal Impact

The total estimated construction cost for the Westlake Slurry Seal Project is $2,810,000.00, which includes the $2,341,427.51 construction contract and $468,572.49 (20%) for construction contingency, inspection and administration.

Sufficient funds are available in Transportation Fund CIP project accounts 21762100 – Westlake Slurry Seal Project to fully fund this construction contract.
